1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:04,720 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. 3 00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:11,000 Speaker 2: Welcome in Tuesday edition Clay Travis Buck Sexton Show. Drama 4 00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:16,680 Speaker 2: of course in the Trump trial, as Judge Marchand comes 5 00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:22,560 Speaker 2: after Donald Trump or allegedly violating a gag order. Lots 6 00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:26,520 Speaker 2: of discussion about that. The trial continues with David Pecker. 7 00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:30,120 Speaker 2: What a name on the witness stand who was in 8 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:34,360 Speaker 2: charge of the National Inquirer at the time there is 9 00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:36,640 Speaker 2: I would encourage you guys. I shared it. We'll throw 10 00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:40,080 Speaker 2: it up on Clay and Buck as well. Amazingly, The 11 00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:44,320 Speaker 2: New York Times has published a savage takedown of the 12 00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:49,080 Speaker 2: charges being brought against Trump by a Boston University professor. 13 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:52,200 Speaker 2: I'd encourage you guys to go read it. It's really 14 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:55,840 Speaker 2: really well done. We may talk some about that Alec 15 00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 2: Baldwin in the news you had again for being harassed, 16 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,360 Speaker 2: but you may listen to the audio and actually find 17 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:06,040 Speaker 2: yourselves unbelievably thinking that Alec Baldwood is not the bad guy, 18 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:07,920 Speaker 2: which is the way Buck and I both responded. 19 00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:10,039 Speaker 3: I just want to prepare everybody today. We have a 20 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:13,280 Speaker 3: number of instances where we're going to have to call 21 00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 3: out people that we usually are throwing haymakers out here 22 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 3: on the show, we're going to be giving them a 23 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 3: golf clap. 24 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:21,840 Speaker 1: I just want every to there are a few instances 25 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:22,200 Speaker 1: of this. 26 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 2: Yesterday we spent a lot of time talking about the 27 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 2: protests that are taking place on so many university campuses. 28 00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 2: I would say primarily in the Northeast, although it's also 29 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:38,399 Speaker 2: on the West Coast. Now leftist institutions overwhelmingly now having 30 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 2: sit in protests, tents out on quads to attack Israel 31 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 2: for the way that they are defending themselves in the 32 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 2: wake of the October seventh terror attacks and Columbia Universe. 33 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 2: I can't believe this is real. Columbia University has ended 34 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 2: all in person classes for the remainder of the semester 35 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 2: because they don't feel like it is safe, essentially for 36 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 2: students to be on campus, particularly students who might be Jewish. 37 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 2: This is turned into a huge deal, yu. I know 38 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 2: they had a raid last night from the New York 39 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:16,800 Speaker 2: Police Department, but they also have faculty that are walking 40 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:21,920 Speaker 2: out and trying to create human shields for the pro Palestine. 41 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:23,839 Speaker 2: However you want to classify it. I don't think they're 42 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 2: necessarily pro Hamas, although some of them do seem to 43 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 2: be explicitly pro proma Humas. Basically I think characterized as 44 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 2: anti Israel. Protest is a fair way to say this. 45 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 2: That are springing up all over the country and we 46 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 2: have to give credit. I can't believe it. But on 47 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 2: morning Joe Joe Scarborough, who is right up there with 48 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 2: the view in terms of regular propaganda idiocy that is 49 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 2: being espoused, he had a really good question. I want 50 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 2: to play that for you and then I will play 51 00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 2: the response, but first credit where credit is due, Joe 52 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 2: Scarborough actually making sense. 53 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 4: One of my pet peeves seems to be one of 54 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 4: your pet peeves, and that is you know, two million 55 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 4: people have been killed in the Sadan Civil War. I 56 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:13,640 Speaker 4: haven't seen a protest in Yu for that Assad killed 57 00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:14,640 Speaker 4: five hundred Arabs. 58 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:16,359 Speaker 1: I didn't see colleges. 59 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:20,640 Speaker 4: Burned down, five hundred thousand Arabs killed by Asad Saddam 60 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 4: Hussein killed over a million Muslims and wars I gassed them. 61 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 4: I didn't see protests there. 62 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 5: Yet. 63 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 4: Your school is shut down right now because Israel is 64 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 4: responding to the worst attack against Jews worldwide since the 65 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 4: Holy Cost. 66 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: Help us sort through that. 67 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 3: Great question, right, I mean credit where credit is due. 68 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 3: He's entirely right in Clay, You and I see this 69 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:48,040 Speaker 3: the same way. I want to get to that guy 70 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 3: away respond which just real quick, who's a professor at 71 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 3: yu at Nyu actually the school that I almost went to, 72 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 3: Nyu stir in the business school. But you could do 73 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 3: this in a whole range of ways. You look at 74 00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 3: the deaths in all those wars that he brought up. 75 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 3: You look at the Yameni Civil War, which has claimed 76 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 3: hundreds of thousands of lives. People are starving to death. 77 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 3: It's been horrible. But it's Muslims killing Muslims. Yes, And 78 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:15,119 Speaker 3: this is a little bit like and this is where 79 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,240 Speaker 3: you and I see it the same way. When we 80 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 3: talk about police violence or gun violence in this country, 81 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:25,360 Speaker 3: it's only very specific gun violence or police involved violence 82 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:28,919 Speaker 3: that anyone seems to care about. On the left, And 83 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:33,040 Speaker 3: as we've talked about, BLM pretends that it is cops 84 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 3: killing black men across America without cause or justification because 85 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 3: of systemic racism, and that is actually an incredibly rare, 86 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 3: thankfully incredibly rare event. But black people killing other black 87 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,839 Speaker 3: people on the streets of Chicago or New Orleans or 88 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 3: Baltimore other cities is a far more common. But there's 89 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 3: no movement, there's no marches in the streets. There's no 90 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 3: anger about this. And you have to ask all these 91 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:00,159 Speaker 3: they want to say they're anti war, anti Zion and 92 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 3: his Clay. No, they're anti Jewish. It's only when when 93 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:07,359 Speaker 3: the Jewish people are are fighting against Hamas that all 94 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 3: of a sudden were any terrorist entity. This really matters. 95 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 3: But Galloway's he's right here. 96 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 2: You want to call yeah, I even say, I wouldn't 97 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 2: even say it's anti Jewish. I think it's what really 98 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,720 Speaker 2: also is coming out. Yes, there's partly anti Jewish. It's 99 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 2: that Jewish people are seen as white and as similarly BLMS. 100 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:25,840 Speaker 3: When this whole thing broke out, that this is a 101 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:27,839 Speaker 3: race conflict. That's how it's seen in America. 102 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 2: They only care BLM does when a white person is 103 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:34,480 Speaker 2: involved in taking a black life, because remember, even when 104 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 2: it's police involved. The situation the murder of the guy 105 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,559 Speaker 2: who was beaten to death by a collection of black 106 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 2: cops in Memphis, that story vanished. They put out video 107 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 2: of it. I mean, the guy was pulled over. I 108 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 2: can't even remember his name. 109 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 1: Right now. 110 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:54,160 Speaker 2: He certainly didn't get any statues. There wasn't any riots 111 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:57,719 Speaker 2: to speak of. It totally vanished. Now, if five black 112 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,919 Speaker 2: five white office had beaten this black kid to death, 113 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 2: Memphis would have burned down. But because it was it 114 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:08,360 Speaker 2: wasn't even just a police thing. It's just what color 115 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 2: are the police officers, which is crazy, but that's how 116 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 2: this is connected. But the response to I wish he's 117 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:17,599 Speaker 2: never going to do it, because that's going too far. 118 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,719 Speaker 2: But I wish that Joe Scarborough had made that connection 119 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,840 Speaker 2: and said, wait a minute. All these BLM protests are 120 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 2: similarly motivated, not on actual violence, but by what the 121 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 2: races of the person that they believe is perpetrating the violence. 122 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 2: Who is, in other words, the oppressor, who is the colonizer. 123 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:40,040 Speaker 2: But here is Professor Galloway's response to that good question 124 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:41,040 Speaker 2: from Joe Scarborough. 125 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 6: I'll give you some more numbers. Twenty two hundred American 126 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 6: servicemen killed at Pearl Harbor. We go on to kill 127 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:48,559 Speaker 6: three and a half million in Japanese, including one hundred 128 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:51,280 Speaker 6: thousand and one nine twenty eight hundred Americans. In nine 129 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:53,279 Speaker 6: to eleven, we go on to kill four hundred thousand 130 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:57,279 Speaker 6: people in Afghanistan and Iraq. We weren't accused of genocide. 131 00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 6: If Mexico had elected the hottest cartel to run their 132 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 6: country and then they incurred into Texas and on a 133 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 6: per capita basis, killed thirty five thousand people or the 134 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 6: population of the University of Texas, and on the way 135 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 6: back took the freshman class at SMU hostage and hid 136 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 6: them under tunnels. 137 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 1: What would we do. It'd be the Great. 138 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 6: Sonora radioactive parking lot. But Jews are not allowed and 139 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 6: Israel is not allowed to prosecute a war, and they 140 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 6: are prosecuting. 141 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 1: A war more humanly than we have done. 142 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 6: The ratio of combatants to civilians, civilian death to combatant 143 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 6: mortality is lower than it was in Mosil, lower than 144 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 6: it was in Japan, lower was in Germany. So there's 145 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 6: just a different standard for Jews in Israel when it 146 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,000 Speaker 6: comes to prosecuting a war. They're allowed to fight back 147 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 6: to a truce, but unlike America or any other Western 148 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 6: nation that has attacked as viciously, they're not allowed to 149 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 6: win a war. 150 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 1: It's a double standard. Overwhelmingly I agree with that answer. 151 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:53,840 Speaker 3: I would just say not really fair to combine to 152 00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:57,680 Speaker 3: compare casualty statistics from the Second World War and today 153 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 3: we have far better munich intelligence, et cetera. I mean, 154 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 3: it used to be you wanted a bomb a part 155 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 3: of a city, you kind of just drop the bombs 156 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 3: out of the air. He had the Nordon bomb site, 157 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 3: but you drop them and you hope they hit. We 158 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 3: have far better and the Israelis do too, a far 159 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 3: better intelligence now. But put that aside, you know, because 160 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 3: he was saying Japan and Germany that we prosecute the war, 161 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 3: or rather the Israelis prosecute the war with greater efficiency. Well, yeah, 162 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 3: it was a long time ago that All said. His 163 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 3: overall point is something we've said on the show, Yeah, 164 00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,000 Speaker 3: which is what if if you've I think actually you 165 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 3: even said a specific Cantel's yeah, did this, and it's 166 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 3: it's absolutely true, and I would have nothing but contempt 167 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:40,200 Speaker 3: for anyone American or otherwise if in that example of 168 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 3: the you know, the cartel and the narco terrorists are 169 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 3: a real thing. In fact, if you go back before 170 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 3: bin Laden, the world's most wanted man was Pablo Escobar, 171 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 3: who blew planes out of the sky and did political 172 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,160 Speaker 3: assassinations and was involved in you know, in acts of 173 00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 3: mass murder. Narco terrorists are a real thing. If a 174 00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:02,319 Speaker 3: narco terrorist group bring out of Mexico that had been 175 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 3: elected by the Mexican people, by the way, that had 176 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 3: won an election in Mexico, had done what that would 177 00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 3: have just occurred in Israel to us, and we were 178 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 3: talking about sending in, you know, our elite units to 179 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:19,840 Speaker 3: just you know, mop the floor with them. Anybody who 180 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:23,080 Speaker 3: would say seize fire, I would have nothing but contempt for. 181 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 3: And so I offered these Israeli as the exact same 182 00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 3: moral calculation, the exact same moral freedom to operate that 183 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:31,439 Speaker 3: I would give myself under those circumstances. 184 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 1: I think it's perfectly well said. I don't remember the 185 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:35,319 Speaker 1: last time that I. 186 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:42,200 Speaker 2: Heard a well reasoned, rational argument on MSNBC. And I 187 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 2: give credit to Scarborough and Galoway for having that conversation, 188 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 2: because that is I think an elite, high level discussion 189 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 2: that is probably analogous that to me, is almost impossible 190 00:09:55,240 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 2: for someone to respond to who is protesting against Israel 191 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 2: right now and be able. Now you could, I guess, 192 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:05,720 Speaker 2: be someone who is so you could be a Quaker 193 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:08,840 Speaker 2: and say that there is no right to violence anywhere. 194 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:13,720 Speaker 2: But then obviously Hamas interacting violently on October seventh is 195 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 2: tough for that argument. But short of that, I don't 196 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 2: even understand what the response would be other than but 197 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 2: they're white. That that's really basically what this boils down to. 198 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:28,239 Speaker 3: Not to get too deep into this with pacifists and pacifism, 199 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 3: but Quakers can only exist in societies where there are 200 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:32,960 Speaker 3: other people who are willing to take up arms the 201 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 3: defense of basic freedoms and rights, so that the Quakers 202 00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:38,560 Speaker 3: can take the positions that they have. Just putting that up, 203 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,200 Speaker 3: and I'm got to find, as in Saudi Arabia. 204 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 2: Building on that analogy, everybody who is attacking Western civilization 205 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:48,959 Speaker 2: only has the ability to attack Western civilization because they 206 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:52,560 Speaker 2: have the good fortune to live in a Western civilist 207 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:54,640 Speaker 2: civilization to be able to attack it. 208 00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 3: I also think that we may be And it depends 209 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:00,320 Speaker 3: on how long this goes, right if we look kid 210 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 3: BLM two point zero, Really it began with George Floyd 211 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:08,840 Speaker 3: and it started getting really big in June of twenty twenty. 212 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:10,720 Speaker 1: We're a little more earlier. 213 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 3: We're a little earlier in the in the timeline here, 214 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 3: it's obviously almost May, but I think the problem they're 215 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 3: running with is this has become the issue of the 216 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 3: activist left, and this is the mobilization in an election 217 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 3: year for the you know, emotionally deranged leftist activist mentality, 218 00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:32,319 Speaker 3: and also infrastructure that they have at some level, like 219 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 3: a lot of tents showing up very quickly. I mean, 220 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:37,679 Speaker 3: I will say it does seem to have the same tense. Yeah, 221 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 3: it does seem like someone's doing something somewhere to help 222 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 3: this stuff out. Right, We can dive into that a 223 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 3: little bit more. But the difference is Joe Biden is 224 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:50,720 Speaker 3: in charge, So you're mobilizing at a time when your guy, 225 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:55,439 Speaker 3: effectively as a leftist, is calling the shots. And also 226 00:11:56,040 --> 00:12:02,720 Speaker 3: I think that there's a particularly powerful down to this. Basically, 227 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 3: what I'm saying is to mobilize around the cops are 228 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:08,959 Speaker 3: racist in America's racist. That works for Democrats in a 229 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:12,520 Speaker 3: way that having the left decide to just unleash all 230 00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:16,640 Speaker 3: their anti semitism at once, I think is politically not 231 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:19,559 Speaker 3: only is it wrong morally, I think it's a blunder too. 232 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:21,439 Speaker 3: And I think that there are some Democrats who are 233 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:24,319 Speaker 3: realizing this. They do not want this to continue through 234 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 3: the summer. I do not think this is going to 235 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 3: help their electoral prospects. 236 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 2: Not only that, I mean it directly attacks the Identity 237 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:36,319 Speaker 2: Politics Coalition because BLM brought together all the Arab protesters 238 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 2: in theory, all the Jewish protesters who are on the left. 239 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 2: This is tearing it apart, which is why I sent 240 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 2: you a message. I saw it was being shared. MSNBC, 241 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:49,839 Speaker 2: at least this morning was not covering at all any 242 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:52,600 Speaker 2: of the campus protests that are going on. They are 243 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:56,560 Speaker 2: manighacally focused on the Trump trial. So if you only 244 00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 2: paid attention to the MSNBC website, To be fair, that 245 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,200 Speaker 2: clip that we just played you is from Morning Joe, 246 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:04,240 Speaker 2: so they were talking about it there. But if you're 247 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:07,080 Speaker 2: just someone who's going on to the MSNBC website, like 248 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 2: what's the news of the day, all you would get 249 00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 2: is Trump. Is Rachel Maddow on Monday, I think she 250 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:13,120 Speaker 2: had a panel discussion. 251 00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 1: It was all Trump. 252 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 2: I don't know that you would be very aware of 253 00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:22,320 Speaker 2: this if you are a typical leftist person who is 254 00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 2: consuming news well, I mean the New York Times. 255 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,680 Speaker 3: It's from page New York Times, It's from page Washington Post, 256 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:32,640 Speaker 3: isn't it I mean MSNBC. I was gonna say, is 257 00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 3: MSNBC even more to the left of those publications. 258 00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:36,840 Speaker 1: I'm not sure that's really. 259 00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,520 Speaker 2: I think that the challenge they've got is Trump is 260 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:42,839 Speaker 2: their great satan, and they don't want to distract at 261 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:45,079 Speaker 2: all from the fact that the Trump trial is going 262 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 2: on because it is probably frankly better ratings because there's 263 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,200 Speaker 2: a bad guy there that they've been wanting to get 264 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 2: for a long time. I give credit again to Scarborough 265 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,800 Speaker 2: and Galloway for having this discussion. It would be a 266 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 2: fun discuss. It would be fun and interesting analysis of 267 00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 2: me what percentage. Let's compare Fox News coverage of the trial, 268 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:06,719 Speaker 2: which I'm sure they're covering it a lot, with how 269 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:09,719 Speaker 2: MSNBC and CNN are covering it, because I do think 270 00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:13,000 Speaker 2: that's intriguing these days. Twenty dollars bill doesn't go far, 271 00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 2: but it will buy you a full month cell phone 272 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 2: service from Puretalk. Twenty dollars a month gets you unlimited 273 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 2: talk text, plenty of five G data from Puretalk.

We 276 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 2: both rely on Puretalk service, as do many of you 277 00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 2: average sized family saves almost one thousand dollars a year, 278 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:35,200 Speaker 2: all with no contracts, no activation fees.

Say the keywords clay and buck. 286 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 3: You know we had said, I'd got to just tell 287 00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 3: you I wish I wish that I. 288 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 1: Could do some men on the street stuff. 289 00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:18,200 Speaker 3: You know, I'd put on a mask, obviously COVID got 290 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 3: to be safe, put on a mask, and I would 291 00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 3: say operating, you know, as an independent journalist or something. 292 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:26,520 Speaker 3: I don't know, I'm coming with some story that's true, 293 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:28,320 Speaker 3: but you know, you have to tell them all this stuff. 294 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 3: I would love to be able to ask these these 295 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 3: protesters questions. I mean, the one that would first come 296 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 3: to mind is so October seventh, how do you how 297 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 3: do you feel about that? 298 00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 1: And just to see their reactions. 299 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 3: But you pointed out that there are a lot of 300 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 3: signs out, yes, that give us a sense of the mentality, 301 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 3: the psychology of these maniacs who were out in the 302 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 3: quads yelling and protesting. And I remember it's not just 303 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 3: with the protesting. I mean they're they're shouting abuse at 304 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:55,920 Speaker 3: Jewish students for being Jewish. I mean, this is a 305 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:59,680 Speaker 3: regular occurrence at these campus They're they're shouting threatening things 306 00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:03,160 Speaker 3: about out about the Jewish people and the need for 307 00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:06,400 Speaker 3: retribution and all kinds of crazy stuff. So what are 308 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 3: the signs like that you're seeing, Clay. 309 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 2: Some of the signs in this crazy Columbia protest that 310 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:21,120 Speaker 2: has been reported on Gays for Gaza, Dykes for Divest, 311 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 2: Lesbians for Liberation, and there is a photo here of 312 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:33,440 Speaker 2: Dykes for Divest which is connected to a Palestinestinian flag. 313 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:38,160 Speaker 2: So this is what to your point, if you could 314 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:42,239 Speaker 2: be a reporter right now and you could go interview 315 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:47,920 Speaker 2: these gay kids that are protesting on behalf of Palestine, 316 00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 2: Palestinian statehood or whatever they're trying to basically anti Israel protests, 317 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:58,680 Speaker 2: do they have any conception of what would happen to 318 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:03,160 Speaker 2: them at all? If they were in Gaza, they could 319 00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:07,640 Speaker 2: go right now and walk anywhere in Israel, and they 320 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:10,520 Speaker 2: could protest in favor of gay rights. 321 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:12,040 Speaker 1: Do you want me to do? You want me to 322 00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 1: play the role of purple haired lunatic classics? Than what 323 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:15,840 Speaker 1: they would say? 324 00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 3: What do you think they would say if they were 325 00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:23,880 Speaker 3: asked directly about the cognitive dissonance? I understand the absolutism 326 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:27,119 Speaker 3: of the victim left, and that everything can always you 327 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:29,479 Speaker 3: can justify anything because you're always the victim, or you're 328 00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 3: always supporting the victim. They would say that any rejection 329 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:40,160 Speaker 3: of trans rights in Gaza is the fault of the 330 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 3: Israelis for oppressing Palestinians in Gaza and not allowing the 331 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:51,040 Speaker 3: freedom to express themselves necessary to. So it's Israel's fault. 332 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 3: I'm telling you, that is what the purpose. If they 333 00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:55,320 Speaker 3: would even answer your question and not just shriek and 334 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 3: try to spit at you, but that is what they 335 00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:00,280 Speaker 3: would say. They would say that everything Clay, any thing 336 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:04,200 Speaker 3: that Hamas does, no matter how vile, is Israel's fault. 337 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 3: That's the whole game. That's the way they do all 338 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:07,440 Speaker 3: of this. 339 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:13,119 Speaker 2: This is also why the disconnect between race and religion 340 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 2: is so important. 341 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:16,240 Speaker 1: Because. 342 00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 2: Much of the Muslim faith is incredibly conservative in nature. 343 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:30,640 Speaker 2: Making a woman cover her entire body because you are 344 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 2: concerned about what the reaction will be from men if 345 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:42,200 Speaker 2: she is not completely covered is insanely conservative, and it's 346 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:45,640 Speaker 2: based on their religious belief. But here in the United 347 00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:50,960 Speaker 2: States we've managed to divorce what is the multi thousand 348 00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:53,919 Speaker 2: year battle by and large in the Middle East, the 349 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:58,119 Speaker 2: conflict between the Jewish faith and the Muslim faith, and 350 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:03,159 Speaker 2: certainly Christianity roles in there too. Historically, that's been the 351 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:06,919 Speaker 2: whole reason that we fight. Only I mean this is 352 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 2: only in the last thirty years has suddenly the argument 353 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:17,159 Speaker 2: become based on the color of the skin. We're going 354 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:19,760 Speaker 2: to determine who is oppressed and who is the oppressor. 355 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:23,960 Speaker 2: And we've got a lot of Jewish listeners. The idea 356 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 2: that Jews, of all people, would be the colonizers and 357 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 2: the oppressors when you look at their entire past couple 358 00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:40,080 Speaker 2: of thousand years of history, is so bastardized from any 359 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:44,080 Speaker 2: realization of the truth that it is crazy that the 360 00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:48,080 Speaker 2: most educated people in America would have become such a 361 00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:52,000 Speaker 2: cult that they are behaving. 362 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:54,639 Speaker 3: Complifah one is I think we always can refer to 363 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 3: them as the most credentialed via the education bureaucracy, right, 364 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:02,480 Speaker 3: I mean there's education and then there's having letters after it. 365 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 3: As we found out thanks to a listener about doctor 366 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,120 Speaker 3: Jill Biden, who doesn't even have a PhD. 367 00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:09,480 Speaker 1: It's some other thing I'd never even heard of before. 368 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 3: But also, Clay, you have to remember that in the 369 00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:23,800 Speaker 3: same way that Asian Americans have destroyed the left's race 370 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 3: mythology around how it's you know, it is it is 371 00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:32,960 Speaker 3: racial oppression that prevents minorities from getting into Harvard, right 372 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:36,479 Speaker 3: that or racism, it is racism that prevents minorities from 373 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:39,520 Speaker 3: getting into Harvard, whether systemic or otherwise. Well, no, actually 374 00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 3: Asians had to face racism because so many of them 375 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:47,200 Speaker 3: would otherwise get into Harvard, you know East Asians we're 376 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 3: talking about now. And so that's how the Supreme Court 377 00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:53,440 Speaker 3: ended up coming around to finally saying, and you'll notice 378 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:55,639 Speaker 3: a lot of schools are still trying to just ignore this, 379 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:58,920 Speaker 3: that you can't discriminate on the basis of race and 380 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:04,240 Speaker 3: college admissions. The left in our country has and this 381 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:06,720 Speaker 3: is white people will talk about let's say cultural Marxism, 382 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:11,399 Speaker 3: it's really a racial Marxism. Actually, they've replaced economic inequality 383 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:15,679 Speaker 3: with this hierarchy of racial oppression. Right, so instead of 384 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 3: just where are you on the financial scale, it's are you? 385 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:22,640 Speaker 3: You know, the most oppressed race is slightly less oppressed race. 386 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 3: It's all on skin color. The history of the Jewish 387 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 3: people with whom they consider to be white. Remember this, 388 00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:31,960 Speaker 3: the left considers them to be white. The history of 389 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:34,200 Speaker 3: the Jewish people would seem to be, on its face, 390 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 3: a refutation of the core belief of the left, which 391 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:42,200 Speaker 3: is that the only people that face true discrimination are 392 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 3: non white, that white people. In fact, the left has 393 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:48,679 Speaker 3: claimed for years you cannot be racist against white people 394 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 3: because racism requires privilege and power in society. That means 395 00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 3: that effectively, it is not possible for you know, white 396 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 3: people are always in this role of Well, this is 397 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 3: crazy because as you point out the history of the 398 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:06,400 Speaker 3: Jewish people, and not just the two thousand plus year history, 399 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:09,680 Speaker 3: but the last hundred and you know, do the math 400 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 3: on it, the last one hundred or so years, one 401 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:12,520 Speaker 3: hundred and twenty years. 402 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:14,920 Speaker 2: It was only seventy five years ago that we had 403 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:19,520 Speaker 2: actual concentration camps where millions of Jews were being. 404 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:23,119 Speaker 1: Put to death because they were Jewish. 405 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:27,400 Speaker 2: I mean, this is why it's such a fundamentally broken worldview. 406 00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:32,399 Speaker 2: In living memory, we can point to it being totally wrong, 407 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,760 Speaker 2: and yet this is why my belief has to be 408 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:39,320 Speaker 2: And this is when we had this conversation the first hour. Ultimately, 409 00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 2: I believe that logic triumphs and I just feel like 410 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:48,440 Speaker 2: this is so crazy. This idea that Jews are oppressors 411 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:52,000 Speaker 2: and colonizers is so freaking and I have to be 412 00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:53,399 Speaker 2: careful not to curse because we're. 413 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,879 Speaker 1: Not allowed to. It's so freaking ridiculous. 414 00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,439 Speaker 3: But can I can I give you a Can I 415 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 3: give you a a little bit of a sad moment here? 416 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:05,359 Speaker 3: You know again you're logic and think, Yeah, as a 417 00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:07,680 Speaker 3: person of high IQ, we can get tho, we can 418 00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:12,199 Speaker 3: get a womp womp sound out here, Clay. The Democrats 419 00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:18,200 Speaker 3: during the pandemic in twenty twenty embraced the just absolutely 420 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:24,920 Speaker 3: preposterous lie that cops are murdering black men without consequence, 421 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:28,600 Speaker 3: systematically and frequently across the country. And that was the 422 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:32,760 Speaker 3: underlying lie of BLM. Cops murdered black men and nothing happens. 423 00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 3: So the first of the guy guy who was even 424 00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:37,720 Speaker 3: the proximity of George Floyd just got and and there's 425 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 3: a whole conversation we had about what did George Floyd 426 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:42,080 Speaker 3: really die of. We could talk about that another time. 427 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:45,399 Speaker 3: But you know, the guy who's in the proximity just 428 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:47,639 Speaker 3: got sentenced to prison. So the notion that it was 429 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:50,719 Speaker 3: all a lie, they haven't walked away from it at all. 430 00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 3: In fact, I think they viewed it as entirely a 431 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 3: successful op. I think they thought the opera. I think 432 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 3: they thought Operations Saint George Floyd and BLM two point 433 00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 3: zero rooted in a lie, delivered the presidency in part 434 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:02,159 Speaker 3: for Joe Biden. 435 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:09,160 Speaker 2: I think that's true. That here's the problem. BLM was beneficial, 436 00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:13,480 Speaker 2: they think. I really don't see how this crazy anti 437 00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:18,320 Speaker 2: Israel protest is beneficial to the Democrat Party. I think 438 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:21,359 Speaker 2: it might actually cost them the election, which makes me wonder. 439 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:24,400 Speaker 2: You know, once you turn the crazy, once you let 440 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:29,240 Speaker 2: crazy people rule you, it's hard to manage crazy people. 441 00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:33,840 Speaker 2: And the crazy kind of seems out of control right now. 442 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:38,200 Speaker 2: How do you put the crazy back into the corral 443 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:42,719 Speaker 2: where the crazy is beneficial to you. It's like the uh, 444 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 2: you know, the cattle wrestling. One of the best Western 445 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:50,360 Speaker 2: movies of all time actually a mini series Lonesome Dove, 446 00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:54,760 Speaker 2: one of the great all time Western novels by Larrymi Merchry. 447 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 2: It's all well and good when you've got the herd 448 00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:01,480 Speaker 2: moving in the direction you want to to go. But 449 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:04,720 Speaker 2: when the herd breaks free, things fall apart in a hurry. 450 00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:08,919 Speaker 2: It feels to me like the Democrat herd, this horde 451 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:11,720 Speaker 2: of protesters that they have been able to direct. Oh, 452 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:14,680 Speaker 2: you're the white man's the problem. Let's go burn down 453 00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:19,960 Speaker 2: a police precinct. Black people are being murdered indiscriminately. What 454 00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 2: happens when that turns on itself? Because you got some 455 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:27,200 Speaker 2: people who were in the BLM protest that are now 456 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:31,440 Speaker 2: walking past Columbia and they're Jewish, and they're like, wait 457 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:35,520 Speaker 2: a minute, these people we had to shut down Columbia University. 458 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:36,960 Speaker 1: These people are crazy telling you. 459 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:37,399 Speaker 2: I was. 460 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:41,920 Speaker 3: I was at a passover with conservative Jews last night 461 00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:45,280 Speaker 3: and we're talking about this issue, and I was, you know, 462 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 3: reading for I don't know, I don't know. Remember I 463 00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:48,959 Speaker 3: learned a little bit of the Hebrew, but I forget. 464 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:50,960 Speaker 3: But I was reading from the books and doing all 465 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:54,679 Speaker 3: the stuff. And we talked about this afterwards. The left 466 00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:58,359 Speaker 3: wing Jews as much as left wing Jews, I'm not 467 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:00,359 Speaker 3: you know, we are the conservative Jews of our already know, 468 00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:02,640 Speaker 3: you know, they the Hollywood the Jewish community. 469 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:04,760 Speaker 2: Let's just say, like that's sort of an easy way 470 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:07,000 Speaker 2: to like describe, like a left wing Jew would be 471 00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 2: like a Hollywood Jew, right. 472 00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, the left wing secular, I mean they're sort of 473 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:15,159 Speaker 3: culturally and I you know, from an identity perspective Jewish, 474 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 3: they tend not to be very religious. The religious Jews, 475 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:21,920 Speaker 3: the conservative Jews politically and religiously, they're already on team 476 00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 3: Reality here. The left wing Jews, I'm telling you, man, 477 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:28,159 Speaker 3: even with all this crazy stuff on campus, they're not 478 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:31,440 Speaker 3: gonna vote for Donald Trump.

We'll see, but I don't. 489 00:26:56,359 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 3: I don't see the The Jews who see reality already 490 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 3: see reality. You know, in terms of this election, I've 491 00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:03,120 Speaker 3: seen it a long time. 492 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 2: Crafts of the world are looking around. He's a billionaire, 493 00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:11,760 Speaker 2: ostensibly a man who has supported BLM. I think some 494 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 2: of them are looking around and saying, holy hell, we've 495 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 2: unleashed the furies here. 496 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:19,720 Speaker 1: This craziness is too much for me. I could be 497 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:20,440 Speaker 1: wrong again. 498 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:22,280 Speaker 2: I tend to be an optimist and tend to be 499 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:24,560 Speaker 2: rational in the way that I analyze things, and we 500 00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:26,840 Speaker 2: certainly live in an irrational era. 501 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 1: If Jewish people vote for. 502 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 2: Democrats, I think any Jewish person who votes for Democrats 503 00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:37,480 Speaker 2: is crazy in twenty twenty four, I really do. 504 00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 1: I mean, just based on what you're seeing. 505 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:43,840 Speaker 3: We'll see, you know, making sense of the stock market 506 00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:47,080 Speaker 3: the machinations behind That's no easy task, but that's what 507 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:50,840 Speaker 3: editor and commas Mark Chakin does in his regularly published reports. 508 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:53,680 Speaker 3: Mark worked on Wall Street for fifty years before becoming 509 00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:56,960 Speaker 3: a writer. In his time on the street, he invented 510 00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:00,119 Speaker 3: three new indices for the Nasdaq and as predicted, one 511 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:03,240 Speaker 3: of the biggest market shifts of the past decade, including 512 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:06,359 Speaker 3: the recent focus on AI stocks and all the hype 513 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:10,320 Speaker 3: around them. Now, Mark says most Americans are about to 514 00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:13,840 Speaker 3: miss out on a critical turning point in this AI 515 00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:17,400 Speaker 3: stock frenzy, Mark is saying this is a new dawn 516 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:20,200 Speaker 3: for US stocks, and he predicts that dozens of companies, 517 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 3: specific companies will be impacted by this in just the 518 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:25,920 Speaker 3: next ninety days. That's why Mark has agreed to share 519 00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:29,120 Speaker 3: one of his favorite AI stocks, Dubai now with our listeners. 520 00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:31,800 Speaker 3: He puts everything in a new presentation you can watch 521 00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:36,160 Speaker 3: for free at twenty twenty four aistock dot com. That's 522 00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 3: twenty twenty four aistock dot Com paid for by shake 523 00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:53,240 Speaker 3: In Analytics. The Trump trial has already ended for the day. 524 00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:57,240 Speaker 3: Evidently Trump is speaking right outside of the courtroom. 525 00:28:57,280 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 2: We're going to analyze this in greater detail. Let's go 526 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 2: listen to what he's saying live right now. 527 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:06,200 Speaker 5: What's going on in this country now should have never happened, 528 00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 5: But of course he grant would have happened. 529 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:13,120 Speaker 1: He Israeli attacked, would have never happened. Inflation would have 530 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:16,440 Speaker 1: never happened. We have the worst president of the history 531 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:19,480 Speaker 1: of country, and he's the one that has in. 532 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 6: All these different books. 533 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:27,480 Speaker 2: Okay, okay, So that was that was We caught the 534 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:29,240 Speaker 2: tail in there, and we'll see if there was anything 535 00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 2: that he said at the front end. I think very 536 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:35,480 Speaker 2: similar probably to what was said before. Now, uh, let's 537 00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:40,600 Speaker 2: dive into Buck. I was surprised that this is that 538 00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:45,000 Speaker 2: this is out there, but this was published a little 539 00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:48,680 Speaker 2: bit earlier today at a guest essay for the New 540 00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:53,640 Speaker 2: York Times opinion piece. I thought the brag case against 541 00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:57,040 Speaker 2: the headline. I thought the brag case against Trump was 542 00:29:57,080 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 2: a legal embarrassment. Now I I think it's a historic mistake. 543 00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 2: This is by a man named Jed Sugarman. He is 544 00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:12,280 Speaker 2: a law professor at BU and this is going a 545 00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:15,640 Speaker 2: little bit into the weeds, but I would encourage you 546 00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:18,920 Speaker 2: guys to read this. It'll be linked up at clayanbuck 547 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 2: dot com. I give credit, which is rare. We've given 548 00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:25,400 Speaker 2: credit to Joe Scarborough on MSNBC, and now we're giving 549 00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 2: credit to the New York Times for publishing this. What 550 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:33,320 Speaker 2: he says and this goes to the essence of his 551 00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:40,240 Speaker 2: piece is that there are three real major issues that 552 00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:46,080 Speaker 2: he believes are impossible to overlook, and I'm just going 553 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:49,000 Speaker 2: to summarize these. It's a little bit complicated. It's almost 554 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:53,719 Speaker 2: like in this analysis, you're almost getting a law degree. 555 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:55,640 Speaker 2: For those of you who remember we talked about OJ 556 00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 2: Simpson dying a couple of weeks ago, this in the 557 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:02,400 Speaker 2: in the way that everybody almost got a law license 558 00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 2: by just following the OJ Simpson case closely, similarly, Bush v. 559 00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:11,240 Speaker 2: Gore in two thousand, you are almost getting a behind 560 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:15,440 Speaker 2: the scenes look at how a law license his gain. 561 00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:17,360 Speaker 2: But he points to three big things and I'm going 562 00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:20,600 Speaker 2: to summarize here first, and I'm reading from him. He 563 00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:26,040 Speaker 2: could find no previous case of any state prosecutor relying 564 00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 2: on the Federal Election Campaign Act as a direct crime 565 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 2: or a predicate crime. And so the first part here 566 00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:37,760 Speaker 2: is this is a big deal. Effectively, Alvin Bragg is 567 00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:42,520 Speaker 2: trying to use a state law to prosecute a violation 568 00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 2: of federal campaign finance law. Second, remember, in order to 569 00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:53,600 Speaker 2: elevate this case, this is his second argument. In order 570 00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:56,680 Speaker 2: to elevate this case from a misdemeanor to a felony, 571 00:31:57,280 --> 00:32:01,120 Speaker 2: there has to be a second crime, and the second 572 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:05,960 Speaker 2: crime that is underlying here still has not been specified. 573 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:09,280 Speaker 2: This is crazy to me by Alvin Bragg. He gave 574 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:15,760 Speaker 2: four different potential criteria that would support it merchand accepted 575 00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:20,360 Speaker 2: three of those arguments, but they still haven't even specified 576 00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:23,920 Speaker 2: the second crime which would allow this to be elevated 577 00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 2: to a felony. And the third here is there is 578 00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:35,920 Speaker 2: no New York precedent to allow this case to be occurring. Again, 579 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:38,720 Speaker 2: I would encourage you to go read the case yourself 580 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:41,960 Speaker 2: to a large degree. But those are three major arguments 581 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,520 Speaker 2: that he is making here. And so this is why 582 00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:46,520 Speaker 2: I've said, and everybody got so fired up at me. 583 00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:49,520 Speaker 2: If I were on this jury, I would vote not 584 00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:55,480 Speaker 2: guilty because this is legally insufficient, in my opinion, to 585 00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:58,080 Speaker 2: be able to justify a conviction. I'm looking at this 586 00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:01,480 Speaker 2: from a legal perspective. I think there's a decent chance 587 00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:05,640 Speaker 2: this will all be struck down and eventually it will 588 00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:08,600 Speaker 2: go all the way, I think, to the United States 589 00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:12,160 Speaker 2: Supreme Court. Now, if there's a conviction, what he points out, 590 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 2: which I think is really significant here is he says 591 00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 2: that he thinks the Trump team failed. This is an 592 00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:25,160 Speaker 2: important part by not trying to make an argument. If 593 00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:29,080 Speaker 2: they had raised the issue of selective or vindictive prosecution, 594 00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:33,400 Speaker 2: they could have delayed the trial past election day, even 595 00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:35,959 Speaker 2: if they lost at each federal stage. So he's not 596 00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:38,440 Speaker 2: just saying it's not a great crime. He's saying he 597 00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:42,400 Speaker 2: does not a crime as it's constituted. Also that he 598 00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:46,040 Speaker 2: doesn't think Trump's legal team has provided the best defense 599 00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:47,160 Speaker 2: possible for him. 600 00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:51,960 Speaker 1: So all of this rolled in to say, most. 601 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:57,360 Speaker 2: Decent and reasoned legal analysts think this Alvin braggcase is 602 00:33:57,400 --> 00:33:59,720 Speaker 2: a total farce. And I give credit to the New 603 00:33:59,800 --> 00:34:03,160 Speaker 2: York Times for actually carrying this piece. But if you 604 00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:05,920 Speaker 2: just watch it MSNBC or CNN, you would get the 605 00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:09,560 Speaker 2: idea that this is a very legitimate prosecution. 606 00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:12,400 Speaker 1: And the reality is is it is not. 607 00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:18,799 Speaker 3: It's absurd, it's indefensible, there's no good faith explanation, and 608 00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:24,520 Speaker 3: it's effectively the legal equivalent of creating a carnival dunk tank. 609 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:28,359 Speaker 3: And Donald Trump is sitting on the on the little seat, 610 00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:30,920 Speaker 3: remember those things, you know, and you would throw the 611 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,440 Speaker 3: ball and if you hit the lever, the guy drops 612 00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:34,239 Speaker 3: into the dunk tank. 613 00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:36,279 Speaker 2: Oh, I've been in a dunk tank before. You ever 614 00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:38,400 Speaker 2: had to sit in a dunk tank. Oh, yeah, sitting 615 00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:38,520 Speaker 2: in the. 616 00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:40,440 Speaker 3: Dunk tank is fun. I mean, let's be honest, you know, 617 00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:43,480 Speaker 3: you kind of want a brutal and then somebody always does. 618 00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:45,160 Speaker 3: Oh they just walk up and they slap it with 619 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:46,960 Speaker 3: their hand, and it's like, well, you know, you're really 620 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:48,719 Speaker 3: not supposed to do that. You're supposed to hit it 621 00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:51,160 Speaker 3: with the ball. But anyway, the dunk tank, you know, 622 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:53,440 Speaker 3: sometimes you got to go in. This is a dunk 623 00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:56,840 Speaker 3: tank in New York City that Alvin Bragg is currently operating. 624 00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:59,800 Speaker 3: It is a dunk tank with a former president of 625 00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:03,920 Speaker 3: the United States, you know, sitting there, and it is 626 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:07,600 Speaker 3: making a mockery of the criminal justice system. 627 00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:09,840 Speaker 1: This is really frightening. 628 00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:10,080 Speaker 7: You know. 629 00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:12,920 Speaker 3: One of the things we often talk about. You know, 630 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:17,120 Speaker 3: what's different about America from other places, Clay, There are 631 00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:21,120 Speaker 3: other countries with the rule of law, but it is 632 00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:25,040 Speaker 3: still something rare to be in America or to believe 633 00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:28,840 Speaker 3: in American justice in the way that we all do 634 00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:31,879 Speaker 3: in a lot of other countries. First of all, there's 635 00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:34,200 Speaker 3: basically no justice system to speak of. But even when 636 00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:38,239 Speaker 3: they try, the system that we have, you have as 637 00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:40,479 Speaker 3: a citizen, as an American, you have a far better 638 00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:43,560 Speaker 3: shot than you would in any other place. Once you 639 00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:48,880 Speaker 3: start to have Americans lose faith in the criminal justice system, 640 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:51,360 Speaker 3: you start to wonder, how different are we from a 641 00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:53,640 Speaker 3: lot of these countries that we think have lost their way? 642 00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:58,120 Speaker 3: How different are we from from places where the powerful 643 00:35:58,200 --> 00:35:59,959 Speaker 3: rule and everybody just does what they're told. 644 00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:06,560 Speaker 2: And also what happens if Trump is convicted here This 645 00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:08,960 Speaker 2: is why I look ahead to twenty twenty four in 646 00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:14,640 Speaker 2: six months. If Trump loses this race, then the lesson 647 00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:18,440 Speaker 2: the Democrats are going to take be quite certain is 648 00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:24,160 Speaker 2: lawfair works? Because they have an unbelievably awful candidate. Look 649 00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:27,320 Speaker 2: at what they're arguing in favor of Joe Biden. They're 650 00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:30,720 Speaker 2: going to go all in on. They're already running these ads. 651 00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:33,359 Speaker 2: Police officers are going to pull you over and make 652 00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:35,840 Speaker 2: women take pregnancy tests. They're going to go with the 653 00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:41,560 Speaker 2: Handmaid's Tale to terrify women, and they're gonna what argue otherwise, 654 00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:44,600 Speaker 2: democracy's at stake while they try to put their chief 655 00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:46,799 Speaker 2: political rival in prison for the rest of his life. 656 00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:52,239 Speaker 2: If they can win this race, they will say we'll 657 00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:56,600 Speaker 2: never have a worse candidate than Biden. And yet with lawfair. 658 00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:59,880 Speaker 2: We were able to win, we were able to beat Trump. 659 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:03,239 Speaker 2: They'll try this again. And if you're out there and 660 00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:07,720 Speaker 2: you think, oh, Trump's uniquely awful, they'll never be able 661 00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:12,360 Speaker 2: to find something to peg on anyone else. I'm sorry 662 00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:16,719 Speaker 2: to tell you you're wrong. Every one of you just 663 00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:21,640 Speaker 2: about listening to us right now. If a federal prosecutor 664 00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:25,640 Speaker 2: decided to go through everything that you have done in 665 00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:29,359 Speaker 2: the last five years of your life and did a 666 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:33,879 Speaker 2: deep dive, that federal prosecutor, I'm sorry to say, could 667 00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:36,719 Speaker 2: find something to charge you with too. And you can 668 00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:38,440 Speaker 2: sit out there and you can say, not me, no 669 00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:40,960 Speaker 2: way you. I mean, this is the truth. 670 00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:44,200 Speaker 3: If that felt like an exaggeration, people like you and 671 00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:45,480 Speaker 3: me have been saying this for a long time. If 672 00:37:45,480 --> 00:37:48,759 Speaker 3: it felt like an exaggeration before, how could anyone think 673 00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:49,680 Speaker 3: it's an exaggeration? 674 00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:50,080 Speaker 1: Now? 675 00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:55,200 Speaker 3: Donald Trump is being prosecuted for the wave that his 676 00:37:55,400 --> 00:38:02,000 Speaker 3: lawyer recorded an NDA. Yes, who the crime? 677 00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:02,319 Speaker 5: You know? 678 00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:05,680 Speaker 3: Even we talk about So there's there's malamon say, malum 679 00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:09,600 Speaker 3: prohibitum right, maluman say hitting your neighbor over the head 680 00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:11,480 Speaker 3: with a shovel and killing him because you don't like him. 681 00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:13,719 Speaker 3: It doesn't matter what the law is. It doesn't matter 682 00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:17,319 Speaker 3: if you're in New York or Kentucky or or you know, 683 00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:20,600 Speaker 3: Katman dou like, that's wrong, that's evil, right, you can't 684 00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:21,000 Speaker 3: do that. 685 00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:21,600 Speaker 1: That's maluman. 686 00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:24,520 Speaker 3: Say it's bad because it's malum prohibitum, bad because the 687 00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:25,319 Speaker 3: state says so. 688 00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:25,799 Speaker 1: Right. 689 00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:30,759 Speaker 3: But even in malum prohibitum cases, there's some explanation as 690 00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:33,279 Speaker 3: to why this state, you know, it would create disorder, 691 00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:36,640 Speaker 3: or the state couldn't fund itself, or you know whatever. Right, 692 00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:39,600 Speaker 3: the state is a party to a wrong in some way. 693 00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:41,759 Speaker 3: Now that can be abused, and there are things that 694 00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:44,279 Speaker 3: are malum prohibitum that I don't think should be. I 695 00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:47,760 Speaker 3: just bring it up because in this instance, the wrong 696 00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:54,480 Speaker 3: is the public's right to know about this, because it 697 00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:57,400 Speaker 3: would have changed how they view an election. 698 00:38:57,600 --> 00:38:57,920 Speaker 1: You shoel. 699 00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:02,480 Speaker 3: What I'm like, this is, this is a purely political crime. 700 00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:07,320 Speaker 3: The state wasn't deprived of funds. The state wasn't wasn't 701 00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:09,920 Speaker 3: you know, repudiated in some way, or there wasn't some 702 00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:13,680 Speaker 3: issue of they just he just felt like the state 703 00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:15,640 Speaker 3: had a right to know this, or rather the public 704 00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:16,480 Speaker 3: had a right to know this. 705 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:18,520 Speaker 1: The whole thing is preposterous. 706 00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:22,359 Speaker 2: Even the way that they are trying to characterize it. 707 00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:25,360 Speaker 2: They're saying, this is the hush money trial, this is 708 00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:29,960 Speaker 2: the hush money case. Hush money is legal. This is important. 709 00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:35,760 Speaker 2: It's legal to pay hush money. Trump did not break 710 00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:40,560 Speaker 2: the law by paying Stormy Daniels one hundred and thirty 711 00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:44,280 Speaker 2: thousand dollars to sign an NDA and not tell her story. 712 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:46,640 Speaker 2: Hush Money is legal. 713 00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:47,799 Speaker 1: Now. 714 00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:50,759 Speaker 2: Sometimes this happened with David Letterman. Some of you will 715 00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:56,560 Speaker 2: remember an attempt to get hush money can be considered extortion. 716 00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:01,560 Speaker 2: Remember in the David Letterman case, the woman's I think 717 00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:03,440 Speaker 2: you still and I'm paraphrasing here, so if I get 718 00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:06,040 Speaker 2: some of the details wrong, The woman used to work 719 00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:09,759 Speaker 2: for David Letterman, had a relationship with him, said I'm 720 00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:13,560 Speaker 2: going to go public unless you pay me off. Letterman 721 00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:17,520 Speaker 2: went to authorities and they arrested the woman for extorting him. 722 00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:20,960 Speaker 1: No, I thought was the husband. The husband extorted him? Okay, 723 00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:21,719 Speaker 1: maybe yeah. 724 00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:24,640 Speaker 3: The husband of the woman said, I'm going to sell 725 00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:27,719 Speaker 3: you a screenplay about a guy who does a late 726 00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:30,200 Speaker 3: night talk show who has an affair, and it was 727 00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:34,080 Speaker 3: a thinly veiled extortion scheme. And Letterman went to if 728 00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:35,759 Speaker 3: my memory serves that is how it went down. 729 00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:38,799 Speaker 2: Okay, that may be, but the point on this is 730 00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:43,760 Speaker 2: usually if David Letterman had just paid, the hush money 731 00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:46,760 Speaker 2: itself is not a crime. So even when they're saying 732 00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:49,000 Speaker 2: this is the hush money case, no, no, no, it's not 733 00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:50,120 Speaker 2: even a hush money case. 734 00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:51,760 Speaker 1: It is a. 735 00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:56,600 Speaker 2: Allegation of a bookkeeping irregularity. And I think this is 736 00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:59,000 Speaker 2: also important, and I don't know if it will eventually 737 00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:02,080 Speaker 2: come out a trial. I actually think the reason that 738 00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:06,360 Speaker 2: Trump paid Stormy Daniels had nothing to do with the election. 739 00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:11,400 Speaker 2: I think he didn't want Milania to hear this story. 740 00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:15,040 Speaker 2: I think he was actually trying to protect his marriage 741 00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:19,800 Speaker 2: as opposed to his viability as an electoral candidate. Because 742 00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:24,000 Speaker 2: I don't think many people would have been impacted by 743 00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:26,600 Speaker 2: this story in terms of what they thought about Trump. 744 00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:29,880 Speaker 1: I think Trump's marriage could have been impacted also. 745 00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:32,880 Speaker 3: I mean, there's so many things here. We sit here 746 00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:37,279 Speaker 3: and go around over and over. The federal government that 747 00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:41,960 Speaker 3: would be the authority for a federal election said there's 748 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:44,960 Speaker 3: no crime here, correct, But Alvin bresh so they wouldn't 749 00:41:44,960 --> 00:41:47,320 Speaker 3: even charge, they would't even bring a case. But Alvin 750 00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:50,799 Speaker 3: Bragg is saying I'm going to bring something based on 751 00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:53,520 Speaker 3: New York law, and I'm going to use the federal 752 00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:57,080 Speaker 3: law that you didn't think Trump violated as the excuse 753 00:41:57,200 --> 00:41:59,960 Speaker 3: to elevate the New York state charge to a felon. 754 00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:04,839 Speaker 3: Then I'm going to do a repetitive count maneuver where 755 00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:08,480 Speaker 3: you have thirty four instances of the same thing because 756 00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:10,680 Speaker 3: of each time it was listed anywhere or sent in 757 00:42:10,719 --> 00:42:11,800 Speaker 3: an email or whatever. 758 00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:14,320 Speaker 1: And this guy, Alvin Bragg, is a lunatic. 759 00:42:14,760 --> 00:42:17,719 Speaker 2: Yes, And if you were on this jury, if I 760 00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:20,000 Speaker 2: had been fortunate enough to be seated on this jury, 761 00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:21,840 Speaker 2: I can tell you that I would have one hundred 762 00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:25,560 Speaker 2: percent said not guilty. Because I've analyzed all this, I've 763 00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:29,240 Speaker 2: looked at it. There's nothing unless there's some crazy story 764 00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:31,000 Speaker 2: that none of us have heard, which I'll leave out 765 00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:34,560 Speaker 2: there as a possibility. Hasn't happened yet, unless there's some 766 00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:38,920 Speaker 2: detail of this case that changes my perceptions of it completely. 767 00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:43,479 Speaker 2: As a matter of law, I don't see any way 768 00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:46,880 Speaker 2: that a person who is a functional fair juror with 769 00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:51,560 Speaker 2: a brain that works could vote not could vote guilty here. 770 00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:55,359 Speaker 2: I think you're obligated to vote not guilty. Now, rig 771 00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:57,520 Speaker 2: jury system. A lot of people hate Trump, they don't 772 00:42:57,520 --> 00:43:00,000 Speaker 2: care about the details. But what we just ran through 773 00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:03,600 Speaker 2: the New York Times editorial that we just discussed actually 774 00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:06,439 Speaker 2: makes this very sound legal argument. We'll talk with Andy 775 00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:09,080 Speaker 2: McCarthy in about what thirteen or fourteen minutes about some 776 00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:12,560 Speaker 2: of these details. That this is BS, and that anyone 777 00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:16,280 Speaker 2: who actually cares about the precedent of BS being established 778 00:43:16,320 --> 00:43:19,839 Speaker 2: as a law to go after political opponents should vote 779 00:43:19,840 --> 00:43:21,880 Speaker 2: not guilty as well.

They are playing right now up 803 00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:51,120 Speaker 2: at the White Sox Field. That is pretty awesome. I'm 804 00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:55,600 Speaker 2: sure that was fun to watch as a dad. Congrats Andy, 805 00:44:55,960 --> 00:44:59,080 Speaker 2: Let's dive into this chaos. New York Times publishes an 806 00:44:59,200 --> 00:45:02,320 Speaker 2: editorial so if you've had time to see it, basically 807 00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:07,040 Speaker 2: saying the entire concept of this Trump trial is garbage. 808 00:45:07,080 --> 00:45:10,080 Speaker 2: Credit to the New York Times editorial page for publishing it. 809 00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:13,239 Speaker 2: It's a Boston University professor in the law school there 810 00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:16,600 Speaker 2: who wrote it. Has anything that you have seen in 811 00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:19,160 Speaker 2: the first two and a half days three days of 812 00:45:19,200 --> 00:45:23,280 Speaker 2: the trial changed your mind about the legitimacy of this case. 813 00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:26,680 Speaker 2: And if so, or is it even more convinced you 814 00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:27,799 Speaker 2: that it's garbage. 815 00:45:28,440 --> 00:45:33,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's more convinced me it's garbage play. And you know, 816 00:45:33,160 --> 00:45:35,360 Speaker 5: I think now that we're looking at it really closely. 817 00:45:35,360 --> 00:45:37,600 Speaker 5: I'm not saying I hadn't looked at it closely by now, 818 00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:41,080 Speaker 5: but like the insidiousness of this was not as apparent 819 00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:45,160 Speaker 5: as it's become. To put it in a nutshell for people, 820 00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:49,839 Speaker 5: you're supposed to if you indict somebody, the charges have 821 00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:54,279 Speaker 5: to be in the indictment. That's a constitutional requirement of 822 00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:59,880 Speaker 5: the Fifth Amendment. What Bragg indicted Trump for was falsification 823 00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:04,120 Speaker 5: of business records with criminal intent. At the same time 824 00:46:04,239 --> 00:46:09,320 Speaker 5: he filed the indictment, he filed his own statement. 825 00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:11,080 Speaker 7: Of facts of what he purports to be facts. 826 00:46:11,480 --> 00:46:15,320 Speaker 5: Now, that in it of itself is peculiar, because usually 827 00:46:15,640 --> 00:46:20,440 Speaker 5: what prosecutors and grand juries do is in the indictment itself. 828 00:46:20,920 --> 00:46:26,520 Speaker 5: The grand jury alleges the narrative in which the various 829 00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:30,000 Speaker 5: criminal offenses are alleged to have taken place. That's not 830 00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:32,880 Speaker 5: what Bragg did here. He had the grand jury return 831 00:46:33,040 --> 00:46:39,200 Speaker 5: a bare bones indictment, essentially just stating the statutory offense 832 00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:43,960 Speaker 5: without any color or description. Then he files his own statement, 833 00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:47,640 Speaker 5: which is not the grand jury statement, in which he 834 00:46:47,719 --> 00:46:52,560 Speaker 5: says the crime is that Trump conspired Will actually uses 835 00:46:52,600 --> 00:46:58,160 Speaker 5: the word scheme schemed to steal the twenty sixteen election 836 00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:04,000 Speaker 5: by suppressing politically damaging information, which is not what the 837 00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:08,680 Speaker 5: grand jury says. Then they get to trial and the 838 00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:10,920 Speaker 5: anti gets up, so now they're not using the. 839 00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:13,280 Speaker 7: Word scheme, they're using the word conspiracy. 840 00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:16,759 Speaker 5: And the problem with this is, aside of the fact 841 00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:19,800 Speaker 5: that it's not in the indictment, there's no such crime 842 00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:24,640 Speaker 5: as conspiracy to steal an election or conspiracy to suppress 843 00:47:24,680 --> 00:47:30,399 Speaker 5: politically damaging information. A conspiracy is an agreement by two 844 00:47:30,480 --> 00:47:34,439 Speaker 5: or more people to commit a statutory crime like bank 845 00:47:34,560 --> 00:47:38,440 Speaker 5: robbery or murder or the like. There is no crime, 846 00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:41,239 Speaker 5: and Trump is in charge with it in the indictment. 847 00:47:41,320 --> 00:47:43,400 Speaker 7: So the whole thing is just ridiculous. 848 00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:49,640 Speaker 3: From Jump Street, Andy, who can in the system do 849 00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:52,680 Speaker 3: something about this? Like what are the ways in which 850 00:47:52,960 --> 00:47:57,000 Speaker 3: someone either on appeal or on some kind of an 851 00:47:57,040 --> 00:48:01,040 Speaker 3: emergency motion, like how can this crazy t be stopped? 852 00:48:02,719 --> 00:48:05,520 Speaker 5: The only thing I could think of buck would be 853 00:48:06,520 --> 00:48:09,640 Speaker 5: and I don't think this would work like an emergency 854 00:48:09,680 --> 00:48:14,080 Speaker 5: application to federal court saying that Trump's constitutional rights are 855 00:48:14,120 --> 00:48:16,960 Speaker 5: being violated. And I think what the federal court would 856 00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:20,000 Speaker 5: probably say is, We're not going to intervene at this point. 857 00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:22,440 Speaker 5: We'll wait to see what happens in the case, because 858 00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:25,400 Speaker 5: if he gets acquitted, there'll be no reason to do anything. 859 00:48:25,760 --> 00:48:27,960 Speaker 5: And if he gets convicted, he'll have his full array 860 00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:32,080 Speaker 5: of you a pellet rights plu. That court hasn't been 861 00:48:32,080 --> 00:48:35,800 Speaker 5: friendly to him anyhow, So I'm not sure they'd be 862 00:48:35,840 --> 00:48:38,960 Speaker 5: tripping over themselves to intervene here, but they really should 863 00:48:38,960 --> 00:48:42,719 Speaker 5: because what's happening here is pretty outrageous. 864 00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:43,040 Speaker 7: I mean. 865 00:48:43,680 --> 00:48:47,640 Speaker 5: The other thing to note is that the way that 866 00:48:47,760 --> 00:48:54,040 Speaker 5: Bragg inflated this misdemeanor falsification of business records on which 867 00:48:54,040 --> 00:48:56,120 Speaker 5: the statue of the limitations would have run in twenty 868 00:48:56,200 --> 00:49:00,040 Speaker 5: nineteen because the crimes that the alleged crimes were in 869 00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:03,200 Speaker 5: in twenty seventeen. The way he does it is he 870 00:49:03,320 --> 00:49:09,200 Speaker 5: says that the falsification of records was done to conceal 871 00:49:09,680 --> 00:49:13,080 Speaker 5: or commit another crime, and it turns out the crime 872 00:49:13,120 --> 00:49:15,839 Speaker 5: which he apparently he hid this from the grand jury too. 873 00:49:16,320 --> 00:49:21,799 Speaker 5: The crime he's talking about is federal campaign finance violations. 874 00:49:22,480 --> 00:49:25,440 Speaker 5: And I think one of the things we haven't noticed 875 00:49:25,680 --> 00:49:28,480 Speaker 5: but we should start noticing, is that this is a 876 00:49:28,880 --> 00:49:30,560 Speaker 5: this is a clear episode. 877 00:49:30,760 --> 00:49:32,280 Speaker 7: Well it's not clear, but it's an. 878 00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:37,960 Speaker 5: Episode of collusion between the Biden administration, the Biden Justice Department, 879 00:49:38,320 --> 00:49:39,000 Speaker 5: and BRAG. 880 00:49:39,560 --> 00:49:40,879 Speaker 7: And the reason I say that. 881 00:49:40,920 --> 00:49:43,520 Speaker 5: Is, you know, it's easy enough when we're talking about 882 00:49:43,600 --> 00:49:47,400 Speaker 5: Jack Smith to see that there's a relationship between the 883 00:49:47,440 --> 00:49:48,560 Speaker 5: special counsel, the. 884 00:49:48,520 --> 00:49:50,840 Speaker 1: Biden Justice Department, and Biden. 885 00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:55,279 Speaker 5: You know, Jack Smith exercises Biden's executive power and he 886 00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:58,160 Speaker 5: answers to Merrick Garland, So that's easy enough to see. 887 00:49:58,520 --> 00:50:02,000 Speaker 5: But here it's a state prosecution, so it's not easy 888 00:50:02,040 --> 00:50:04,960 Speaker 5: to see. But the fact is, if you look at 889 00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:09,359 Speaker 5: the Justice Department guidelines and the Federal Election Commission guidelines, 890 00:50:09,680 --> 00:50:13,239 Speaker 5: what they say is that those two agencies are the 891 00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:20,960 Speaker 5: exclusive authorities in law for enforcing federal campaign finance law 892 00:50:21,040 --> 00:50:25,720 Speaker 5: in connections with elections for federal office. So if anyone 893 00:50:25,760 --> 00:50:29,600 Speaker 5: else other than Trump were the person in the trick 894 00:50:29,640 --> 00:50:34,400 Speaker 5: bag here, and a local prosecutors somewhere in the United 895 00:50:34,440 --> 00:50:40,080 Speaker 5: States tried to enforce federal campaign law, the Justice Department 896 00:50:40,200 --> 00:50:44,560 Speaker 5: and the SEC would ordinarily go crazy. They would not 897 00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:47,080 Speaker 5: tolerate it. They'd be in court trying to stop it. 898 00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:50,560 Speaker 5: They it just wouldn't happen. But here they haven't made 899 00:50:50,560 --> 00:50:53,719 Speaker 5: a peep. And the only reason that makes sense that 900 00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:55,920 Speaker 5: they haven't made a peep is that it's Trump. 901 00:50:57,120 --> 00:50:59,839 Speaker 2: I also think this ties in, and you'll be able 902 00:50:59,920 --> 00:51:03,840 Speaker 2: to explain this better than I could. We talked earlier 903 00:51:03,920 --> 00:51:06,880 Speaker 2: this week about the prosecutor who made the opening case, 904 00:51:07,040 --> 00:51:11,960 Speaker 2: Matthew Colangelo. He had risen to third overall in the 905 00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:14,440 Speaker 2: Department of Justice. I think we talked about this with 906 00:51:14,520 --> 00:51:19,359 Speaker 2: Cash Ptel Monday maybe or Tuesday on the show. You 907 00:51:19,440 --> 00:51:23,560 Speaker 2: were a prosecutor, have you ever seen somebody from this 908 00:51:23,920 --> 00:51:28,000 Speaker 2: high in the Department of Justice leave the Department of 909 00:51:28,200 --> 00:51:32,160 Speaker 2: Justice to prosecute a state crime? The analogy I made 910 00:51:32,200 --> 00:51:36,000 Speaker 2: you're at a ballpark up there in Chicago, would be, this 911 00:51:36,040 --> 00:51:38,680 Speaker 2: is a little bit like somebody who's in the major 912 00:51:38,760 --> 00:51:42,200 Speaker 2: leagues going back down to single A or double A ball. 913 00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:45,480 Speaker 2: If you have the political power that you would that 914 00:51:45,640 --> 00:51:48,760 Speaker 2: high up in the Department of Justice, overall federal charges 915 00:51:49,239 --> 00:51:52,799 Speaker 2: to go and then do a state prosecution. It's kind 916 00:51:52,840 --> 00:51:56,000 Speaker 2: of unheard of, right, which to me is evidence of 917 00:51:56,160 --> 00:52:00,720 Speaker 2: how enmeshed the Biden administration really is in this Salvin 918 00:52:00,719 --> 00:52:01,360 Speaker 2: brag case. 919 00:52:02,160 --> 00:52:06,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's highly unusual now, to be fair, a couple 920 00:52:06,719 --> 00:52:10,319 Speaker 5: of things. I don't know what Colangelo's status was there, Like, 921 00:52:10,360 --> 00:52:10,839 Speaker 5: I don't know. 922 00:52:10,760 --> 00:52:13,200 Speaker 7: If he thought that they had their eyes on moving 923 00:52:13,280 --> 00:52:14,839 Speaker 7: him out and moving somebody else in. 924 00:52:15,600 --> 00:52:20,040 Speaker 5: And sometimes when people have political ambitions rather than just 925 00:52:20,239 --> 00:52:27,879 Speaker 5: prosecutorial ambitions, a seemingly lateral move or even a move 926 00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:30,120 Speaker 5: down can be something that. 927 00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:31,360 Speaker 7: Helps your political career. 928 00:52:31,480 --> 00:52:35,160 Speaker 5: So, for example, Rudy Giuliani was the number three guy 929 00:52:35,360 --> 00:52:38,960 Speaker 5: in the Reagan Justice Department, but he asked instead to 930 00:52:39,000 --> 00:52:42,359 Speaker 5: become the US Attorney in the Southern District of New York. 931 00:52:42,840 --> 00:52:45,000 Speaker 5: And even though a lot of people in Washington may 932 00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:47,839 Speaker 5: have thought that was a crazy move for someone who 933 00:52:47,880 --> 00:52:50,839 Speaker 5: was politically ambitious and wanted to be mayor of New York, 934 00:52:51,280 --> 00:52:54,120 Speaker 5: it made perfect sense, and he became a much more 935 00:52:54,160 --> 00:52:58,560 Speaker 5: famous and effective figure as the US attorney in New 936 00:52:58,640 --> 00:53:01,040 Speaker 5: York than he would have been as the number three 937 00:53:01,080 --> 00:53:02,960 Speaker 5: guy in Reagan's Justice department. 938 00:53:03,040 --> 00:53:04,520 Speaker 7: So there's a lot that goes into it. 939 00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:08,279 Speaker 5: But to leave a position like that to try a 940 00:53:08,320 --> 00:53:13,440 Speaker 5: single case would be highly, highly unusual. Although you and 941 00:53:13,480 --> 00:53:17,879 Speaker 5: I both know that you know, whatever Democratic prosecutor nails Trump. 942 00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:19,600 Speaker 7: Is going to be, you know, he's going to be 943 00:53:19,600 --> 00:53:21,239 Speaker 7: an icon for these guys. 944 00:53:21,880 --> 00:53:26,240 Speaker 3: So Andy, this brings us back to uh where where 945 00:53:26,280 --> 00:53:29,560 Speaker 3: this is all heading it seems right now? And also 946 00:53:29,640 --> 00:53:32,880 Speaker 3: the the gag order. Can you can you tell us 947 00:53:32,920 --> 00:53:36,319 Speaker 3: about how how you're viewing that component of it, because 948 00:53:36,320 --> 00:53:38,160 Speaker 3: there's been a lot of back and forth between Trump 949 00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:41,120 Speaker 3: already and the judge and they're saying, oh, you know, 950 00:53:41,200 --> 00:53:43,680 Speaker 3: he's he's saying things about witnesses he's not allowed to say. 951 00:53:44,560 --> 00:53:47,640 Speaker 3: It just feels like, what what are the limits of 952 00:53:47,680 --> 00:53:48,439 Speaker 3: this gag order? 953 00:53:48,520 --> 00:53:50,400 Speaker 1: Can you can you just weigh in on that component? 954 00:53:51,400 --> 00:53:53,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, well, I've I've had a big problem with the 955 00:53:53,600 --> 00:53:56,480 Speaker 5: gag orders from the beginning. Fuck not just this one, 956 00:53:56,520 --> 00:53:59,320 Speaker 5: but also the one Judge Chuck and issued in Washington. 957 00:53:59,719 --> 00:54:03,920 Speaker 5: And the reason is, I think these arrogant judges, and 958 00:54:04,000 --> 00:54:06,520 Speaker 5: these are the Democratic judges. I don't think Ayling Cannon 959 00:54:06,560 --> 00:54:09,200 Speaker 5: has done this then in Florida, but I think these 960 00:54:09,360 --> 00:54:15,440 Speaker 5: arrogant judges won't accept the fact that in this system, 961 00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:20,000 Speaker 5: every right and every duty has to coexist with other 962 00:54:20,080 --> 00:54:24,279 Speaker 5: rights and duties with which it's intentions. And sometimes, even 963 00:54:24,320 --> 00:54:27,160 Speaker 5: though the administration of justice in a case is a 964 00:54:27,280 --> 00:54:31,239 Speaker 5: very important public interest, there are higher public interests than that. 965 00:54:31,480 --> 00:54:35,759 Speaker 5: So robust political debate in connection with an election for 966 00:54:35,800 --> 00:54:40,320 Speaker 5: the highest office in the country is a high constitutional interest. 967 00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:44,480 Speaker 5: Trump has a constitutional right to run for the presidency. 968 00:54:45,000 --> 00:54:48,760 Speaker 5: So even if in a normal case you would crack 969 00:54:48,880 --> 00:54:53,319 Speaker 5: down on what parties could say for fear of influencing 970 00:54:53,360 --> 00:54:57,080 Speaker 5: the jury pool or intimidating witnesses or what have you, here, 971 00:54:57,640 --> 00:55:01,640 Speaker 5: the interest in the administration justice has to yield to 972 00:55:01,680 --> 00:55:05,480 Speaker 5: some extent to these other more important interests. And these 973 00:55:05,600 --> 00:55:09,040 Speaker 5: judges won't do it. And the fact that they keep 974 00:55:09,080 --> 00:55:13,400 Speaker 5: saying the administration of justice has to be exalted overall 975 00:55:13,520 --> 00:55:18,040 Speaker 5: otherwise Trump is, you know, somehow above the law is ridiculous. 976 00:55:18,080 --> 00:55:20,960 Speaker 5: If they were that interested in the administration of justice, 977 00:55:21,120 --> 00:55:23,840 Speaker 5: they could put the trials off until after the campaign 978 00:55:23,960 --> 00:55:27,759 Speaker 5: is over, and then nobody could argue that the administration 979 00:55:27,840 --> 00:55:30,000 Speaker 5: of justice was the higher interest at that point. 980 00:55:30,320 --> 00:55:31,960 Speaker 7: But they won't do that, of course. 981 00:55:31,760 --> 00:55:35,440 Speaker 5: Because the prosecutors who they're working in cahoots with it 982 00:55:35,520 --> 00:55:39,200 Speaker 5: seems want these trials to take place prior to the election. 983 00:55:39,680 --> 00:55:43,200 Speaker 5: So it's like they create the crisis that puts the 984 00:55:43,239 --> 00:55:48,320 Speaker 5: Administration of Justice intention with these other more important constitutional issues, 985 00:55:48,560 --> 00:55:51,080 Speaker 5: and then they say, you know, Trump is the one 986 00:55:51,080 --> 00:55:53,560 Speaker 5: who has to yield as if like the a Court 987 00:55:53,640 --> 00:55:57,400 Speaker 5: doesn't have to ever bend to some more important interests. 988 00:55:57,680 --> 00:56:01,040 Speaker 5: So that's what's happening here. And I actually think given 989 00:56:01,080 --> 00:56:04,520 Speaker 5: that Trump is the running for president, which he's entitled 990 00:56:04,600 --> 00:56:07,520 Speaker 5: to do and giving the public, the public interest in 991 00:56:07,640 --> 00:56:12,680 Speaker 5: robust debate in a presidential campaign, Trump should not be 992 00:56:13,360 --> 00:56:18,480 Speaker 5: gagged except to the extent that the law already essentially 993 00:56:19,960 --> 00:56:23,360 Speaker 5: limits what people can say. So, for example, if Trump 994 00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:27,360 Speaker 5: makes a comment that amounts to incitement or obstruction of justice, 995 00:56:27,480 --> 00:56:30,280 Speaker 5: he can be prosecuted to that. If he says something 996 00:56:30,320 --> 00:56:32,759 Speaker 5: that to sames someone, he can be sued for that. 997 00:56:33,160 --> 00:56:34,719 Speaker 7: If he says something that helps the. 998 00:56:34,680 --> 00:56:38,240 Speaker 5: Prosecutor's case, they can use it against him in the trial. 999 00:56:38,920 --> 00:56:40,240 Speaker 7: So he's got a lot. 1000 00:56:40,120 --> 00:56:43,160 Speaker 5: Of incentives not to say stupid things, and there's a 1001 00:56:43,160 --> 00:56:46,200 Speaker 5: lot of downside for him in saying stupid things. But 1002 00:56:46,320 --> 00:56:49,920 Speaker 5: he shouldn't be gagged ahead of time. And told what 1003 00:56:49,960 --> 00:56:52,640 Speaker 5: he can say and what he can say under circumstances 1004 00:56:52,640 --> 00:56:55,680 Speaker 5: where every witness is allowed to talk about him, and 1005 00:56:55,840 --> 00:56:59,640 Speaker 5: every political candidate, including Biden, can say whatever they want 1006 00:56:59,640 --> 00:57:02,400 Speaker 5: about a law fair against Trump and he's not allowed 1007 00:57:02,400 --> 00:57:03,680 Speaker 5: to respond. That's crazy. 1008 00:57:04,600 --> 00:57:09,080 Speaker 2: Last question for you here, Andy, You've picked a lot 1009 00:57:09,120 --> 00:57:13,000 Speaker 2: of juries over your life and been involved in jury selection. 1010 00:57:13,400 --> 00:57:16,200 Speaker 2: I know you haven't set for jury selection, but based 1011 00:57:16,240 --> 00:57:19,720 Speaker 2: on what you have seen Buckett I both say there's 1012 00:57:19,760 --> 00:57:22,280 Speaker 2: a zero percent chance of a not guilty verdict. 1013 00:57:22,400 --> 00:57:25,080 Speaker 1: I bet you would likely say that as well. 1014 00:57:25,640 --> 00:57:29,640 Speaker 2: Do you feel like Trump has any reason for optimism 1015 00:57:29,680 --> 00:57:32,400 Speaker 2: based on the jury was selected, that there might be 1016 00:57:32,560 --> 00:57:35,240 Speaker 2: someone or maybe more than one person who are willing 1017 00:57:35,280 --> 00:57:37,320 Speaker 2: to consider a not guilty verdict. 1018 00:57:37,400 --> 00:57:39,360 Speaker 1: Any read from you on this jury? 1019 00:57:39,960 --> 00:57:42,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'd say two things about that, Clay. One is, 1020 00:57:43,840 --> 00:57:46,960 Speaker 5: some of that gets even dad. I agree that Manhattan. 1021 00:57:46,520 --> 00:57:50,040 Speaker 7: Is not great for Trump, to say the least. 1022 00:57:50,520 --> 00:57:52,800 Speaker 5: On the other hand, you know, I wouldn't read too 1023 00:57:52,880 --> 00:57:54,520 Speaker 5: much into Manhattan by the fact. 1024 00:57:54,280 --> 00:57:56,720 Speaker 7: That they elect Alvin Bragg as their DA. 1025 00:57:56,840 --> 00:57:59,840 Speaker 5: Those the people who vote in those elections are you know, 1026 00:58:00,040 --> 00:58:02,720 Speaker 5: it's tiny compared to what the jury pool is. And 1027 00:58:02,760 --> 00:58:04,280 Speaker 5: I think there's a lot of people in the jury 1028 00:58:04,320 --> 00:58:09,160 Speaker 5: pool who would be sympathetic to Trump. And statistically, what 1029 00:58:09,400 --> 00:58:12,280 Speaker 5: the advantage Trump gets, aside from not having to approved anything, 1030 00:58:12,920 --> 00:58:15,680 Speaker 5: is that he only needs one juror to get a mistrial, 1031 00:58:16,040 --> 00:58:19,880 Speaker 5: whereas brag needs all twelves to convict. And the one 1032 00:58:19,920 --> 00:58:22,040 Speaker 5: other thing I would say about it is I think 1033 00:58:22,120 --> 00:58:25,560 Speaker 5: under New York law, Trump is entitled to a lesser 1034 00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:31,200 Speaker 5: included offense instruction, which means he should be able to 1035 00:58:31,280 --> 00:58:34,840 Speaker 5: get the court to instruct the jury that they could 1036 00:58:34,920 --> 00:58:39,439 Speaker 5: find him guilty of the misdemeanor business record. 1037 00:58:39,120 --> 00:58:42,240 Speaker 2: Sort of a compromise. Verdict is an option. In other words, 1038 00:58:42,320 --> 00:58:45,000 Speaker 2: it's not either a yes but here. 1039 00:58:45,040 --> 00:58:47,040 Speaker 5: If they were to convict him of that, the Statute 1040 00:58:47,040 --> 00:58:49,720 Speaker 5: of Limitations ran on that in twenty nineteen. 1041 00:58:49,440 --> 00:58:51,000 Speaker 7: So the case would have to get thrown. Now. 1042 00:58:51,840 --> 00:58:55,600 Speaker 1: Oh wow, that's a great point. Very interesting. Andy. 1043 00:58:55,640 --> 00:58:57,120 Speaker 3: We're gonna need you to stick around.

They do 1053 00:59:22,200 --> 00:59:25,960 Speaker 3: that by giving an ultrasound experience to pregnant women who 1054 00:59:25,960 --> 00:59:29,360 Speaker 3: are deciding between life and abortion for their unborn baby. 1055 00:59:29,640 --> 00:59:31,919 Speaker 3: They offer this ultrasound so that the mom can meet 1056 00:59:32,040 --> 00:59:35,600 Speaker 3: her unborn child.
