They just they just don't. It was 56 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 1: a fair question on every measure. It's it's pretty unbelievable. 57 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:26,359 Speaker 1: I don't even know where to begin. One other funny 58 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: note is somebody on x you know, the people that 59 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 1: post even if you're making fun of me? And when 60 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 1: sweet Baby James brings it over to me and he says, oh, 61 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 1: did you see this person saying this about you?

And when it's not, I'm like, Okay, these 64 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 1: people need to get a life. 65 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 2: You got these. 66 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 1: Keyboard warriors in their underwear, some of them paid. I mean, 67 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 1: you have people that are paid to monitor every word 68 00:03:56,280 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 1: I say, every sentence, every It's just ridiculous. Why in 69 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:04,360 Speaker 1: the hopes that I might say one word, one sentence, 70 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 1: one little phrase that they can, you know, take out 71 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 1: a context and try and get me boycotted, canceled, fired, 72 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 1: et cetera. I mean, after all, they are so open minded, 73 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 1: those Democrats there really are, just like at NBC. They're 74 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: so open minded that you know, are you or have 75 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,239 Speaker 1: you ever been a Republican or a Donald Trump supporter? 76 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 1: Because if you have the inmates running the asylum will 77 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 1: get you canceled and get you fired and probably also 78 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 1: end up getting you sued big time. We'll see where 79 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:39,840 Speaker 1: that goes, because there's a report today Ronald McDaniel is 80 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 1: planning to sue. 81 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:44,039 Speaker 2: Well, we'll see how that ends up. Anyway. 82 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:49,160 Speaker 1: So Colleen Jean Pierre was offended about this issue. But 83 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 1: here's what's interesting. We found tape of Kristen Welker, who 84 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 1: now I guess hosts Meet the Press and AOC. Listen 85 00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:00,839 Speaker 1: to them talk about Mara Lago's value. 86 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 5: Donald Trump's home here in Palm Beach is quickly earning 87 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:07,239 Speaker 5: the title Winter White House. It's a storied estate steeped 88 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 5: in history. Mister Trump has spent the past twenty thanksgivings here, 89 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 5: but now as President elect, everything is different. The twenty 90 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 5: acre estate was originally built by serial airs Marjorie Meriweather Post. 91 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 5: She actually envisioned it as a winter retreat for US presidents. 92 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 5: Now some say it's the most valuable parcel of land 93 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:30,480 Speaker 5: anywhere in Florida. Much of the one hundred and twenty 94 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 5: six room estate is used by the members only Mara 95 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:34,159 Speaker 5: a Lago Club. 96 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 6: It further stated from mister Trump quote he also helped 97 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 6: formulate a strategy to undervalue his parents' real estate holdings 98 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:46,919 Speaker 6: by hundreds of millions of dollars on tax returns, sharply 99 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 6: reducing his tax bill when those properties were transferred to 100 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 6: him and his siblings. Mister Cohen, do you know whether 101 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 6: that specific report is accurate? 102 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,479 Speaker 4: I don't. I wasn't there in nineteen nineties. 103 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:00,920 Speaker 6: Who would know the answer to those questions? 104 00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 4: Alan Weisselberg? 105 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:06,000 Speaker 6: And would it help for the committee to obtain federal 106 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,280 Speaker 6: and state tax returns from the President and his company 107 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 6: to address that discrepancy? 108 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 1: I believe so unbelievable, But these are the times that 109 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 1: we're living in. You do know that we are just 110 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,679 Speaker 1: a mere two hundred and twenty two days away from 111 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:24,359 Speaker 1: this inflection moment for our country. You know, it's just 112 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:27,839 Speaker 1: does anyone can anyone give a rational explanation as to 113 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:31,760 Speaker 1: why Joe Biden claimed that he traveled many times over 114 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 1: the vehicle only Francis Scott, key Bridge community by train 115 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:37,920 Speaker 1: or by car. 116 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 2: Why would he? 117 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: Why does he always have to insert himself into everything? 118 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:46,479 Speaker 1: I had a talking about the fires in Maui. We 119 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:49,720 Speaker 1: had to fire at my house once so bad. It 120 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 1: was a minor, minor house fire that was handled within 121 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:58,839 Speaker 1: like fifteen minutes. It got close to my little corvette 122 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 1: gas does corvette my Stingray. I don't want you to 123 00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:06,479 Speaker 1: have a sting Ray, but I want you to have 124 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 1: an electric vehicle. The Justice Department dismissed fraud charges against 125 00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 1: the defendant after a defendant made a six figure donation 126 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 1: to Biden's presidential campaign. Weaponization issues. I'm sure this will 127 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 1: go straight to the judiciary and oversight committees, but they 128 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 1: took a rare step earlier this month. We're only learning 129 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 1: now from the New York Post of moving to dismiss 130 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 1: a three point three billion dollar civil suit a lawsuit 131 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 1: against Dish Network months after the founder and his wife 132 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 1: donated one hundred and thirteen grand to Biden's re election 133 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 1: campaign late last year. How convenient do I think anything 134 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:47,280 Speaker 1: ontoured happened? I have no idea, but timing is a 135 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 1: little bit odd. You know a lot of people have 136 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 1: been asking Hannity, what's the point. Why do you have 137 00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 1: these committees investigating the impeachment? Why is there an impeachment inquiry? Well, 138 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 1: the impeachment inquiry, and they said this from the very beginning. 139 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 2: It's not like it's news. 140 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 1: The impeachment inquiry will give the committees access to things 141 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 1: that they otherwise would not have access to and stronger 142 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 1: subpoena power. And uh yeah, I can do the math 143 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 1: as well. And there's not going to be enough Republicans 144 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 1: to impeach Donald Trump. And I'm sorry if Joe Biden, 145 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 1: and he's certainly not going to be convicted in the 146 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 1: US Senator, it's not going to happen. 147 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 2: But James Comer has. 148 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 1: Been listen saying, and you have been listening to what 149 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:38,200 Speaker 1: the plan really is. Whereas you know, in a Democratic 150 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 1: controled Senate, they never convict Joe and an impeachment trial 151 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 1: didn't matter what the evidence was. The Biden Justice Department 152 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 1: will deep six any criminal referral in the same lock 153 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 1: closet they use to hide their copy of Hunter's hard drive. 154 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 1: That's why Comer is now talking about issuing criminal referrals 155 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 1: on the Biden crime family based on their investigations to 156 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 1: a brand new Trump Justice Department if that happens next January, 157 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 1: and a fundraising email sent to supporters Comer saying that 158 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 1: the criminal referrals in his long running impeachment inquiry may 159 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 1: soon come. I'm preparing criminal referrals as the culmination of 160 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:22,319 Speaker 1: my investigation. They want to interview Joe Biden now. Comer 161 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 1: said that this is the best way to hold the 162 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:28,840 Speaker 1: Biden's accountable for quote their crimes, as it is now 163 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:31,560 Speaker 1: clear that Democrats will do anything to hold on to power, 164 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,720 Speaker 1: and he said that Democrats in Congress are protecting the 165 00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 1: president and his family. It is clear that Democrats will 166 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 1: choose their party over their country and the truth at 167 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 1: every turn. They should be ashamed of themselves. When President 168 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 1: Trump returns to the White House, it is critical the 169 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 1: new leadership of the DOJ have everything they need to 170 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:55,360 Speaker 1: prosecute the Biden crime family and deliver swift justice. Quote unquote, 171 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,920 Speaker 1: James Comer said, We'll have to wait and see what happens. 172 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: Attorneys Hunter, by the way or back in court trying 173 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 1: to get his tax case tossed and we'll see what 174 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:11,680 Speaker 1: happens on that front. Two of Jim Biden's business deals 175 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 1: are linked to two criminal investigations that the president's brother 176 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 1: worked with this collapsed hospital chaining. He got his money 177 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 1: under the microscope. As the family's finances face even more 178 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 1: scrutiny today. And of course all the contradictions, all the whistleblowers, 179 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 1: you know, get ignored by the very people that loved whistleblowers, 180 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:39,720 Speaker 1: even hearsay whistleblowers. It's these are just unbelievable times. You know, 181 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 1: I listened in the what Karine Jean Pierre was just 182 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 1: saying there, you know, the grocery prices are down. No, 183 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:50,960 Speaker 1: anything that they're saying about the border, about grocery prices, 184 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:55,440 Speaker 1: about the economy, they just flat out lie. You know, 185 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 1: the border is secured, the border is closed. No, it's not, 186 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 1: it's never been. It's more dangerous than ever before. And 187 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 1: grocery prices are not coming down and they can. And 188 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 1: this after Joe Biden has pivoted after trying to push 189 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:15,080 Speaker 1: Bidenomics onto everybody and that didn't work. Now he's blaming 190 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 1: greedy corporations for higher prices than shrink flation. No, it's bidenflation. Unemployment, 191 00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:26,439 Speaker 1: by the way, has been rising in forty seven out 192 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 1: of fifty states. Unemployment rate went up in all but 193 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 1: three states over the past year, as Biden continues to 194 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 1: boast about his great handling of the economy and biden Omics. 195 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 1: The states were the biggest jump in individual unemployment rates 196 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:46,120 Speaker 1: as of February were Rhode Island, Maine, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, 197 00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:51,319 Speaker 1: Wyoming were the only states that saw statistically significant declines, 198 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 1: probably in the state of Pennsylvania. That's due to fracking. 199 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:57,560 Speaker 1: California with the highest unemployment rate of any state in 200 00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:01,720 Speaker 1: the country. That shouldn't shock anybody. North Dakota had the 201 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 1: lowest rate at what was it at I think two percent, 202 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 1: followed by Vermont and South Dakota. South Dakota two point 203 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:16,320 Speaker 1: one percent. Overall unemployment rate at you know, four percent 204 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:20,679 Speaker 1: in February. Uh, but it is zero point three percentage 205 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 1: points higher than it was last year. Just like the 206 00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 1: cost of everything keeps going up. 207 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 4: You know. 208 00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:28,840 Speaker 1: It was interesting. I don't remember where I read this, 209 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 1: but I read it in my research today. But Clay 210 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:34,560 Speaker 1: barn has everything in his pawn shop from gold rings 211 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:38,600 Speaker 1: and pearl necklaces and vintage cowboy boots, you know, everything 212 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:40,319 Speaker 1: you'd ever want. He said, right now, we have a 213 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 1: glut of inventory. And he said, that tells me our 214 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 1: clientele don't necessarily have money. Accumulating pawn shop inventory means 215 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 1: that fewer buyers and then there are sellers and a 216 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 1: sign for the lowest income Americans that times remain tough. 217 00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:59,719 Speaker 1: These are indicators that probably are not going to be 218 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:02,680 Speaker 1: shown up that much in the polls, although most Americans 219 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,760 Speaker 1: get it. You know now that there are eight states 220 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:09,520 Speaker 1: planning a complete ban on the sale of gas powered 221 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 1: cars entirely after Biden unveiled his plans to phase them 222 00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 1: out by twenty thirty two. That's eight years from now, 223 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 1: only zero mission vehicles. Well, now we're going to ignore 224 00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:26,439 Speaker 1: the science that showed that electric vehicles because of the 225 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:30,960 Speaker 1: heavy weight of the batteries, never mind the pillaging of 226 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:34,160 Speaker 1: the mother Earth of their cobalt and manganese and other 227 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:39,280 Speaker 1: minerals I mean, and the fact that most of the 228 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 1: electric grid is powered by fossil fuels, so, in other words, 229 00:13:43,400 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 1: fossil fuels still charging your vehicle. And of course the 230 00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 1: heavy weight you know, puts tire particles greater numbers of 231 00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 1: it into the atmosphere anyway. But if you look at 232 00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:57,600 Speaker 1: all these why would these states be buying into this? 233 00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 1: They want to now tell you what car to drive, 234 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:05,440 Speaker 1: what stove to own, what refrigerator you can and cannot have, 235 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:09,280 Speaker 1: what air conditioners you might be able to have. I mean, 236 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:13,080 Speaker 1: that's that's how much they want to impact everybody's life. 237 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 1: By the way, Biden Democrats are ditching Bidenomics because it's 238 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:24,320 Speaker 1: not working. Treator Joe's Hike's banana price for the first 239 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 1: time in decades. I mean it, it is really unbelievab. 240 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 1: Renting is now cheaper than owning in all of America's 241 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 1: fifty biggest metro areas. That tells you a lot too. 242 00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 1: The dream of owning your home is disappearing right before 243 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:43,480 Speaker 1: our eyes. I had a lot of updates coming up 244 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:46,640 Speaker 1: two hundred and twenty two days till you get to 245 00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 1: decide the next president of the United States will update 246 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 1: you with that. We have a lot to get to 247 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 1: with MSDNC. And of course Ronald McDaniel now apparently is 248 00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: threatening to sue that. I promise you it was inevitable. 249 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 1: I could absolutely see Libel behind a suit over the contract, 250 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 1: and I don't think you know you after everything that 251 00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:13,200 Speaker 1: was said, plan or a mob member and so on 252 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 1: and so forth, how they would let the inmates run 253 00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 1: the asylum. In my twenty eight years of Fox, I 254 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:25,440 Speaker 1: promise you they don't care what my opinion is on 255 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:28,280 Speaker 1: who they hired. They don't consult me, nor would I 256 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 1: want to be consulted. It's not my job. I don't 257 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 1: own the network. I don't manage the network. I wouldn't 258 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:43,120 Speaker 1: mind owning the network, but I don't, So wherever I go, 259 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 1: I'm being asked about this insanity over at what it 260 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 1: used to be called NBC News now. 261 00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:54,600 Speaker 2: As a matter of being as a matter of being fair. 262 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:56,520 Speaker 1: And then we're going to get a report from Griff 263 00:15:56,600 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 1: Jenkins on what happened with the bridge, the Francis Scott 264 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:03,760 Speaker 1: Key bridge that Joe Biden took a train over, even 265 00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:06,520 Speaker 1: though they don't have train tracks. We'll get to that. 266 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:10,000 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna say this, are you or have you 267 00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 1: ever been? I have had a great relationship Tim Russert, 268 00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 1: if you recall he wrote two great books years ago. 269 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 1: When he passed away, it was heartbreaking for me. It 270 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:23,720 Speaker 1: was maybe two or three months prior to his death 271 00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 1: that he had moderated a debate between me and James 272 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 1: Carvell and the three of us. 273 00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 2: I mean we had a rock We had a great time. 274 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 1: He would call me like Peter Jennings often had called me, 275 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 1: asking my opinion as a conservative voice, how do you 276 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 1: feel about this issue? What are conservatives thinking about that issue? 277 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:48,920 Speaker 1: So different to where we are today? Are you or 278 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 1: have you ever been a Republican or a Donald Trump supporter? 279 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:55,680 Speaker 2: What are they are? My old thing? 280 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 1: You can't hear an alternative point of view anyway. Two 281 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:00,960 Speaker 1: bits of news will get to in a minute. One 282 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 1: Ronald McDaniel is now considering suing NBC for defamation. I 283 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:09,880 Speaker 1: would imagine a lot of these hosts that threw their 284 00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:13,040 Speaker 1: temper tantrums will be mentioned and sued by name. That 285 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:16,879 Speaker 1: would not shock me at all. And as we now, 286 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:21,680 Speaker 1: you have learned more about news in this country in 287 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:24,200 Speaker 1: this one case, and I think you're ever gonna want 288 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 1: to learn. We'll go into great detail. And they don't 289 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:30,960 Speaker 1: want another point of view. And when you had one 290 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 1: of these triggered MSDNC hosts out there saying well, no, 291 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:38,480 Speaker 1: we do want Republicans on. We'd love to interview people 292 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:42,959 Speaker 1: like Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger. There's not a single 293 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:46,199 Speaker 1: Republican that likes either one of them anymore. They're not 294 00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:50,119 Speaker 1: considered Republicans anyway. We'll get back to this in a minute. 295 00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:55,280 Speaker 1: But the tragedy that is the Franciscott key Bridge. Joe 296 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 1: Biden of course claiming that he traveled at many times 297 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:01,880 Speaker 1: by car and by rail. Problem about the rail aspect 298 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:05,240 Speaker 1: of it is it didn't have train tracks. 299 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 4: You know. 300 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:08,879 Speaker 1: Once again, it's just like Joe Biden. He goes, you know, 301 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:12,359 Speaker 1: talks about Maui and the devastating fires that took place there. 302 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 1: I had a kitchen fire once. It was near my corvette. 303 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 1: Now they extinguished it in about fifteen minutes. But he 304 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 1: wants to, of course, insert himself into everything. But this 305 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:28,880 Speaker 1: has been very very serious. Our very own friend and colleague, 306 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 1: Griff Jenkins from Foxes with Us. He's been on the 307 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:34,919 Speaker 1: ground reporting now for the last couple of days. First, 308 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 1: our thoughts and prayers with the families that lost loved ones. 309 00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 1: But Griff, what the hell went on here? How did they? 310 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:44,679 Speaker 1: How did this happen? I'm beginning to hear rumblings that 311 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:48,639 Speaker 1: there were indications something like this could happen, and they didn't. 312 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:50,000 Speaker 1: They didn't jump fast enough. 313 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,640 Speaker 4: Well, and Sean, I'm not even on the ground. I'm 314 00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:56,280 Speaker 4: also on the water. I am calling you floating in 315 00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:59,120 Speaker 4: the middle of the Tapsco River. We've been doing live 316 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:02,359 Speaker 4: shots showing people the magnitude of this damage. 317 00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:05,040 Speaker 1: By the way, when you say you're floating on the river, 318 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:07,120 Speaker 1: you're not in an inn or two. I assume you're 319 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 1: on a boat. 320 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:11,800 Speaker 4: I want a great forty two foot fishing vessel. Captain 321 00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 4: here the Simoniser fishing charge. If you ever hear just 322 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:17,720 Speaker 4: to give my buddy Lenny, who's taken us out of call, 323 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:20,440 Speaker 4: and book him up. We got a great We're about 324 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:24,280 Speaker 4: a I don't know, five hundred yards from the actual 325 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:28,240 Speaker 4: ship's wreckage. But let me just take two seconds because 326 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:31,040 Speaker 4: before they came to me and you were talking about INBC, 327 00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:33,360 Speaker 4: and I know we're not going to talk totally about that. 328 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 4: You did remind me of my first job in television. 329 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:41,120 Speaker 4: Shawn was a producer at MSNBC with our good friend, 330 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:44,679 Speaker 4: Lieutenant Colonel Oliver North, and that is when MSNBC had 331 00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:47,919 Speaker 4: a hit show called Equal Time with Ali North and 332 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:53,119 Speaker 4: Paul mcgawa, Paul Lagalla being Carvel's Palin and then the 333 00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 4: right hand man in the Clinton administration during those years. 334 00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:59,880 Speaker 4: And that was certainly a time in the late nineties 335 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 4: MSNBC valued Republican views, alternative conservative views, and Colonel North, 336 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 4: who you know quite well, certainly doesn't plenty punches or 337 00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:13,600 Speaker 4: hold back, and that's what we did a counter point 338 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 4: show every night on msn So I just saw that 339 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:19,639 Speaker 4: out there because it certainly has changed. 340 00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:22,439 Speaker 1: Well, they've come a long way from that time. They 341 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:26,920 Speaker 1: won't run a Trump's speech. You got the Republican candidate 342 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:30,480 Speaker 1: for president. They don't even want to hear his voice. 343 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:34,359 Speaker 1: They are fixated, you know, God forbid if anything happened 344 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:38,439 Speaker 1: to Donald Trump, I literally think they'd have nothing to 345 00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 1: ever talk about, because that's all they do twenty four 346 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:43,000 Speaker 1: to seven. 347 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:44,960 Speaker 2: But we digress here. 348 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:47,680 Speaker 1: Let's talk about the tragedy as a matter of fact, 349 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:49,840 Speaker 1: before I actually ask you about it, let me play 350 00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:53,760 Speaker 1: reporters on one of the networks that raised a lot 351 00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:55,680 Speaker 1: of questions in my mind that I want to see 352 00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:57,880 Speaker 1: if you're hearing anything about this as well. 353 00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:01,920 Speaker 7: Listen, it was just empowered failures left and right. So 354 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 7: whenever it left port. Some of us feel like it 355 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:07,360 Speaker 7: should have left when it was daylight so they could 356 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:10,200 Speaker 7: take care of and see what issues they were having too. 357 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,439 Speaker 7: But we can't stop the ships from leaving port the 358 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 7: issues that it was having, and the shipping line knowing 359 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:18,159 Speaker 7: the probably the issues it had, they shouldn't have let 360 00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 7: the ship leave port until they got it under control. Honestly, 361 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:22,359 Speaker 7: it was here for two days because it was a 362 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:25,520 Speaker 7: two day working ship, and those two days they were 363 00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:27,240 Speaker 7: having serious power outages. 364 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 2: By the way, that was that was a harbor worker. 365 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 1: But being interviewed by the media and I'm like, uh, okay, 366 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:37,000 Speaker 1: did this really happen that way? 367 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,639 Speaker 4: Well, we certainly hope we should find out. And you know, 368 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 4: this is like the first real day of the NTSD 369 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:47,240 Speaker 4: being on the ground, and early this morning I was 370 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:50,680 Speaker 4: able to grab a quick interview with the chairwoman of 371 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:54,879 Speaker 4: the NTSB, Jennifer Amendi, and I asked her about, you know, 372 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,439 Speaker 4: the ship's maintenance records, and she said, you know, we 373 00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:00,400 Speaker 4: want to know an awful lot about that. And the 374 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:04,000 Speaker 4: timeline of this ship is really something I've been spending 375 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,679 Speaker 4: all day Sean trying to piece together because we know 376 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:11,920 Speaker 4: at one oh four am the Dolly, the Singapore flag ship, 377 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:15,440 Speaker 4: sets out of Baltimore's Harbor headed to Sri Lanka and 378 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:18,199 Speaker 4: twenty minutes later, one twenty four that twenty first in 379 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:23,200 Speaker 4: that video, start to see the lights flickering, and that's 380 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:27,119 Speaker 4: the power going out. That's the ship losing its power. 381 00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:30,159 Speaker 4: And then you see it go dark and then you 382 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 4: see the lights come back on, and that's when we 383 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 4: start to see that smoke. And sources that are familiar 384 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:38,960 Speaker 4: with this NTSB investigation told me a few hours ago 385 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:43,119 Speaker 4: that what you're witnessing there, Sean, is the emergency power 386 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:46,679 Speaker 4: trying to kick in, but propulsion and ultimately control the 387 00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:50,399 Speaker 4: ship is not regained. And then, of course, within minutes 388 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:54,160 Speaker 4: at one twenty seven am, the ship collides with one 389 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:58,480 Speaker 4: of the main bridges pillars, the structure that's holding it up. 390 00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:01,120 Speaker 4: And then, of course, you know, we all saw what happened. 391 00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:05,880 Speaker 4: The historic landmark bridge collapses into the water. And we've 392 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:08,120 Speaker 4: been out here on this water. It's cold out here, 393 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 4: it's been raining all day, and my hat's off to 394 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:14,200 Speaker 4: these divers. We've been watching divers going in and out 395 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 4: as this frigid water, which is about forty seven forty 396 00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:19,919 Speaker 4: eight degrees all day long trying to bring stuff up. 397 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:21,960 Speaker 4: You've got the Army Corps of Engineers boat, I'm looking 398 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:25,880 Speaker 4: at it right now. You've got Maryland Department of Natural Resources. 399 00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:28,840 Speaker 4: Looks like they've been trying to bring things up. You know, 400 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:31,680 Speaker 4: we can't really tell what they're bringing up when you've 401 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:33,160 Speaker 4: been out on the water, and I know you spend 402 00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:35,439 Speaker 4: time out there, you know, when they bring things up, 403 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:37,520 Speaker 4: they kind of float it up and they move it around. 404 00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 4: We can't get Some ships have blocked it, you know, 405 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:44,640 Speaker 4: their emergency Coast Guard stuff blocking some of our view. 406 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:47,879 Speaker 4: But they're clearly trying to get a handle on this 407 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:52,000 Speaker 4: and bringing the bodies of these presumed six dead workers 408 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 4: up to bring closure to these families. And it is 409 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:59,240 Speaker 4: the task at hand. It's just a daunting challenge given 410 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 4: the the complexities of as element, and of course the 411 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:07,560 Speaker 4: just magnitude of the structure that's collapse into the river. 412 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:10,480 Speaker 4: And when you sit out here and look at it, 413 00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:13,560 Speaker 4: you think about how long it's really going to take 414 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 4: to not only rebuild a bridge, let alone to get 415 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,439 Speaker 4: this debris out of here and get this ship out 416 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:21,560 Speaker 4: of here, which we now know from the White House 417 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 4: briefing there are some containers on there. I think fifty sixty, 418 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:27,399 Speaker 4: said the Vice Admiral of the Coast Guard at the 419 00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:30,320 Speaker 4: White House, leaving fifty six containers on there that have 420 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:34,360 Speaker 4: hazardous material. Now we're told it's not dangerous to anybody 421 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:37,480 Speaker 4: that's opposed to danger right now because those containers are 422 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:41,160 Speaker 4: not towards the ballot this ship where the structure collapsed 423 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:43,960 Speaker 4: on it. But still, if there's hazardous material in the boat, 424 00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 4: I'm looking at five hundred yards in front of me. 425 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 4: You know, that's got to be one of the top priorities. 426 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,080 Speaker 2: Wow, very very dangerous. 427 00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:57,680 Speaker 1: If there's any I guess, how do you say there's 428 00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:00,960 Speaker 1: any blessing in all of this is I guess the 429 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 1: total death toll is six. Last night I heard that 430 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:07,399 Speaker 1: it could be rising. Where are we with that? I 431 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 1: know all search efforts have seized because of the chilling waters, 432 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:17,080 Speaker 1: and nobody would be able to survive. I mean, in 433 00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 1: a case like this, if it was maybe at a 434 00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:20,840 Speaker 1: different point in the day, it could have been a 435 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:21,840 Speaker 1: lot worse, right. 436 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:26,119 Speaker 4: Yeah, for sure. And you know, if there's a silver 437 00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:30,040 Speaker 4: lining here, it is that there was during that entire 438 00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 4: entire you know, crisis period shown between like one twenty 439 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:36,840 Speaker 4: four am and one twenty seven when the collision happens. 440 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:44,199 Speaker 4: That the Maryland Harbor Pilots coordinate with Maryland's Transportation Authority 441 00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 4: to run the roads and the bridge, and we're warning 442 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,960 Speaker 4: them that the ship is in danger, the bridge is 443 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:54,120 Speaker 4: in danger, the ship has lost control, and that resulted 444 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:57,320 Speaker 4: in the bridge being shut down. We've heard the dispatch 445 00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:01,959 Speaker 4: call that really probably staves cant lives because anybody who 446 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 4: would have driven on the bridge in the darken night 447 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:06,480 Speaker 4: at one thirty in the morning would have driven right 448 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 4: into the river. So while it looks like you're looking 449 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 4: at the death to all, probably sex, it could have 450 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:16,200 Speaker 4: been way, way worse had there not been that coordination 451 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 4: between the Harbor pilots and the Maryland Transportation authorities. Yeah, 452 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 4: the quick action to shut that bridge. 453 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,640 Speaker 1: Down, well, thank God, and please thank them for us 454 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 1: and our prayers go out to the families impacted by 455 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:31,840 Speaker 1: all this. Griff, you've been doing a great job for Fox. 456 00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:34,760 Speaker 1: We appreciate always your time on this show as well. 457 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 1: Thank you my friend. 458 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:38,119 Speaker 4: Hey Sean, great to be with you.

Griff Jenkins, Fox 464 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:54,080 Speaker 1: News eight hundred and nine foot one, Sean, if you 465 00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:57,600 Speaker 1: want to be a part of the program, you know 466 00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:02,080 Speaker 1: it's it's really interesting and we'll get into this bill. 467 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:04,360 Speaker 1: O'Reilly old things, simple man coming up at the top 468 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:07,800 Speaker 1: of the hour. But as you watch, you know, maybe 469 00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:13,360 Speaker 1: we'll call it Ronigate. And the scandal at NBC News unfolding. 470 00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:17,760 Speaker 1: America is really getting a real time lesson in the 471 00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 1: mob and the media. You know, you may forget, but 472 00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 1: I've declared, and I said, and I had no idea 473 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:28,080 Speaker 1: how right I really was, that journalism is dead in America. 474 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:30,720 Speaker 1: The great irony in all of this is the all 475 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 1: these people that work at fake news CNN and MSDNC 476 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:38,400 Speaker 1: and the New York Times and even the big networks 477 00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:41,600 Speaker 1: with few exceptions, that they all consider themselves journalists. 478 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 2: They're not your talk show hosts. 479 00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:46,640 Speaker 1: And I've explained my job as a member of the press, 480 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:49,680 Speaker 1: which I am. You know, I'm a talk show host, 481 00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 1: but that includes I do straight news journalism. 482 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:54,359 Speaker 2: If you will. 483 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 1: We do investigative journalism, we give opinion, we talk about 484 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:02,880 Speaker 1: you know, other topics, sports, culture, well like the entire newspaper, 485 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:07,800 Speaker 1: including the editorial page. And they just claim they choose 486 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:11,919 Speaker 1: one narrow lane. And they're not. They're pretending to be journalists. 487 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:15,200 Speaker 1: But their talk show hosts, you know. And I will say, 488 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:18,400 Speaker 1: for all the criticism Fox gets, and we also get 489 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 1: the far better ratings under these other networks, But for 490 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:25,399 Speaker 1: all the criticism, you know, you can't say that we 491 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 1: don't let them posing views on the network. There are 492 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:34,520 Speaker 1: tons of them. Marie harf Is on the network, Juan Williams, 493 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:36,480 Speaker 1: harrold Ford Jr. 494 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 2: Jessic Guitar Love. 495 00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 1: I can't even name them all, and not every host 496 00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:45,920 Speaker 1: has an opinion that does the show on Fox News 497 00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:49,320 Speaker 1: either you're a straight news shows and then there is 498 00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:53,040 Speaker 1: you know, then their talk show hosts like me. But 499 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 1: why do they just why can't they own who they are? 500 00:28:56,840 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 1: But it's getting very very interesting as this unfolds here. 501 00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:06,800 Speaker 1: I think the obvious thing that's going to happen political 502 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 1: reporting today that Ronald McDaniel and her allies are furious 503 00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:13,520 Speaker 1: about how all of this has gone down, believing she's 504 00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:16,520 Speaker 1: been misled about how she'd be welcomed into the fold 505 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:21,479 Speaker 1: by executives that aggressively apparently recruited her. They blame NBC 506 00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 1: brass for botching the whole situation, not having her meet 507 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:28,960 Speaker 1: with top network talent ahead of the rollout, and then 508 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:34,160 Speaker 1: caving to internal pressure from their temper tantrum throwing hosts. 509 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:36,640 Speaker 1: But you know, we're going to see over time how 510 00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 1: this plays out. I would imagine there's going to be 511 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,560 Speaker 1: a lot of legal actions, as they point out here, 512 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:46,160 Speaker 1: and there's no doubt that this was all a setup. 513 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:50,600 Speaker 1: On Sunday that Kristen Welker knew that, you know, Chucky 514 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:53,600 Speaker 1: Todd was going to go scorched Earth, and you know 515 00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:57,040 Speaker 1: Mattow had revealed on Saturday they were told, oh, she's 516 00:29:57,080 --> 00:30:01,680 Speaker 1: never going to appear on msdn Z. Okay, that's not 517 00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:03,760 Speaker 1: what they had said initially, and that's not what they 518 00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 1: said afterwards. They said she would be appearing on all 519 00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:12,480 Speaker 1: these So a lot of inconsistencies here. Anyway, eight hundred 520 00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:14,080 Speaker 1: and ninety four one, Shawn is our number if you 521 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 1: want to be a part of the program.
