WEBVTT - We Would Have Said So.  David Drucker talks to Armstrong & Getty

0:00:00.560 --> 0:00:06.480
<v Speaker 1>The Armstrong and Getty show. The Special Council's Office as

0:00:06.559 --> 0:00:09.960
<v Speaker 1>part of the Department of Justice, and by regulation, it

0:00:10.039 --> 0:00:13.600
<v Speaker 1>was bound by that department policy. Charging the president with

0:00:13.760 --> 0:00:17.760
<v Speaker 1>a crime was therefore not an option we could consider.

0:00:18.239 --> 0:00:21.560
<v Speaker 1>So that was just a department policy. Those were the

0:00:21.640 --> 0:00:25.440
<v Speaker 1>principles under which we operated, and from them we concluded

0:00:25.480 --> 0:00:28.640
<v Speaker 1>that we would not reach a determination one way or

0:00:28.680 --> 0:00:33.279
<v Speaker 1>the other about whether the president committed a crime. There

0:00:33.320 --> 0:00:35.280
<v Speaker 1>you have, it's so old man himself. So I'm looking

0:00:35.320 --> 0:00:37.040
<v Speaker 1>at the text line a little bit before we get

0:00:37.080 --> 0:00:41.839
<v Speaker 1>to one of our favorite analysts. Quote, my report was

0:00:41.880 --> 0:00:45.479
<v Speaker 1>perfectly clear. He's both maybe maybe guilty and maybe maybe innocent.

0:00:45.560 --> 0:00:48.520
<v Speaker 1>I hope this will end all speculation unquote. That's pretty

0:00:48.560 --> 0:00:51.640
<v Speaker 1>well said. My friend also got a number of these.

0:00:52.240 --> 0:00:54.720
<v Speaker 1>If we thought he was innocent, we'd have said that,

0:00:54.760 --> 0:00:57.440
<v Speaker 1>but we didn't say he was innocent. Connect the dots,

0:00:57.480 --> 0:01:02.080
<v Speaker 1>the nation of idiots from the UH Trump he quitted

0:01:02.120 --> 0:01:07.120
<v Speaker 1>a crime. Crowd. Mueller was, Look, there's another way to

0:01:07.160 --> 0:01:10.800
<v Speaker 1>do this. Lots of information there again in Dyke, there's

0:01:10.800 --> 0:01:13.600
<v Speaker 1>another policy. Idiots. Are you following me? Are you tracking?

0:01:15.319 --> 0:01:18.199
<v Speaker 1>It seems like he might be doing that. It rhymes

0:01:18.240 --> 0:01:23.399
<v Speaker 1>with slim peachment. David Drucker, senior political correspondent for The

0:01:23.400 --> 0:01:26.720
<v Speaker 1>Washington Examiner, joins us David, welcome, sir, It's good to

0:01:26.760 --> 0:01:30.320
<v Speaker 1>talk to you. What was your takeaway, Well, it was

0:01:30.480 --> 0:01:32.840
<v Speaker 1>a little bit more interesting than I expected. On one hand,

0:01:33.319 --> 0:01:36.160
<v Speaker 1>I feel like what Muller did was basically reiterate what

0:01:36.319 --> 0:01:40.040
<v Speaker 1>was in his written report. But the two items that

0:01:40.080 --> 0:01:41.600
<v Speaker 1>are going to make a lot of news and that

0:01:41.720 --> 0:01:44.960
<v Speaker 1>he appeared to put a lot of emphasis on, we're

0:01:45.080 --> 0:01:48.520
<v Speaker 1>one the fact that he was following Justice departments in

0:01:48.640 --> 0:01:52.960
<v Speaker 1>guideline that that say a city president cannot be charged

0:01:52.960 --> 0:01:56.880
<v Speaker 1>with the crime, and he used the reasoning that the

0:01:56.960 --> 0:01:59.760
<v Speaker 1>Special Counsel's Office, being that it is a part of

0:01:59.800 --> 0:02:02.720
<v Speaker 1>the Artment of Justice, was bound by those guidelines. Not

0:02:02.800 --> 0:02:06.800
<v Speaker 1>everybody agrees, but that's the choice Mueller made. To me,

0:02:07.040 --> 0:02:12.399
<v Speaker 1>The bigger one was his quote where he said, and

0:02:12.600 --> 0:02:14.919
<v Speaker 1>I tweeted this quickly, so I think I have it right,

0:02:14.960 --> 0:02:17.720
<v Speaker 1>but other people also have this. If we had had

0:02:17.760 --> 0:02:20.840
<v Speaker 1>confidence that the president had clearly not committed a crime,

0:02:20.960 --> 0:02:24.640
<v Speaker 1>we would have said so. Now this is directly in

0:02:24.680 --> 0:02:26.639
<v Speaker 1>the face of what the president has been saying about

0:02:26.639 --> 0:02:31.680
<v Speaker 1>the Moulla report, generating him it also contradicts Attorney General

0:02:31.720 --> 0:02:36.480
<v Speaker 1>Bill Barrs Rosie summary of the Mola report, and it's

0:02:36.520 --> 0:02:39.320
<v Speaker 1>going to, on the one hand, probably infuriate the president,

0:02:39.400 --> 0:02:42.880
<v Speaker 1>but on the other hand, make it harder for Speaker

0:02:42.960 --> 0:02:46.720
<v Speaker 1>Nancy Pelosi too to put the brakes on impeachment. Okay,

0:02:46.760 --> 0:02:48.600
<v Speaker 1>That's what I was gonna ask you about, because I'm

0:02:48.600 --> 0:02:51.720
<v Speaker 1>seeing a bunch of speculation from the smartest talking heads.

0:02:52.000 --> 0:02:55.600
<v Speaker 1>Joe also said he thinks it's more likely to impeachment happens.

0:02:55.639 --> 0:02:57.920
<v Speaker 1>Now do you agree with that? Well, certainly the pressure

0:02:57.960 --> 0:02:59.840
<v Speaker 1>to make it happens, it will be ratching it up

0:03:00.000 --> 0:03:03.800
<v Speaker 1>on David. Sorry, yeah, no, I mean I I think Look,

0:03:03.840 --> 0:03:08.040
<v Speaker 1>I think Pelosi has been smart about trying to avoid impeachment.

0:03:08.400 --> 0:03:11.680
<v Speaker 1>There is not broad political support for impeachment. The Senate,

0:03:11.880 --> 0:03:15.600
<v Speaker 1>controlled by Republicans, most of whom are very loyal to Trump,

0:03:16.200 --> 0:03:19.440
<v Speaker 1>are not going to provide the votes to impeach, and

0:03:19.600 --> 0:03:21.799
<v Speaker 1>so that the president is not going to be removed.

0:03:21.880 --> 0:03:26.600
<v Speaker 1>And in a weird way, politically, the president could um

0:03:26.800 --> 0:03:31.880
<v Speaker 1>come out ahead via an impeachment inquiry unless they're able

0:03:31.880 --> 0:03:33.960
<v Speaker 1>to dig up information that we're not aware of that

0:03:34.000 --> 0:03:37.800
<v Speaker 1>would change public opinions. So I think the Speaker has

0:03:37.800 --> 0:03:40.640
<v Speaker 1>been smart about this. Just just engage in aggressive oversight,

0:03:40.760 --> 0:03:44.280
<v Speaker 1>avoid the politics, the risky politics of impeachment. There's an

0:03:44.320 --> 0:03:46.920
<v Speaker 1>election next year. Beat him at the ballot box. That's

0:03:46.920 --> 0:03:50.120
<v Speaker 1>the best way to go. Um. This makes it harder, though,

0:03:50.200 --> 0:03:54.640
<v Speaker 1>because Democrats have been hitching for impeachment more and more

0:03:55.200 --> 0:03:58.280
<v Speaker 1>in the House, responding both their liberal base but also

0:03:58.320 --> 0:04:01.360
<v Speaker 1>they're reading of the Mulla report itself, and this is

0:04:01.360 --> 0:04:03.680
<v Speaker 1>just going to be more fuel on that fire. When

0:04:05.080 --> 0:04:07.240
<v Speaker 1>what Muller said, it doesn't make it easier for Nancy

0:04:07.240 --> 0:04:09.800
<v Speaker 1>Pelosi today to keep the holl On Maha quiet. Well,

0:04:09.880 --> 0:04:12.920
<v Speaker 1>here's the cynical view. If I was say AOC, I

0:04:12.960 --> 0:04:15.800
<v Speaker 1>would say, listen, the leadership is cowardly. They're not going

0:04:15.840 --> 0:04:19.320
<v Speaker 1>to do this unless there is overwhelming support among the

0:04:19.320 --> 0:04:22.240
<v Speaker 1>American people, and that will force the Republicans to do

0:04:22.279 --> 0:04:24.840
<v Speaker 1>the right thing. The non cynical view of it is,

0:04:25.400 --> 0:04:28.880
<v Speaker 1>the American people have heard all of this, maybe in

0:04:29.040 --> 0:04:33.040
<v Speaker 1>slightly different form, but we've we know all of it.

0:04:33.040 --> 0:04:36.560
<v Speaker 1>It's baked in the poll numbers have not changed and

0:04:36.600 --> 0:04:40.760
<v Speaker 1>probably will not change. And frankly, if the people are

0:04:40.800 --> 0:04:44.400
<v Speaker 1>not calling for impeachment, you could make the case that

0:04:44.880 --> 0:04:48.239
<v Speaker 1>the people end up being the jury through their representatives anyway,

0:04:48.400 --> 0:04:53.719
<v Speaker 1>so don't impeach. I think as a matter of political

0:04:53.760 --> 0:04:58.279
<v Speaker 1>strategy that Democrats would be much better off engaging in

0:04:58.520 --> 0:05:01.400
<v Speaker 1>very aggressive oversight, which I don't think hurts them at

0:05:01.440 --> 0:05:05.000
<v Speaker 1>all and in many ways helps. But but stopping short

0:05:05.080 --> 0:05:08.960
<v Speaker 1>of impeachment from a political standpoint, especially because there's an

0:05:09.000 --> 0:05:12.280
<v Speaker 1>election next year, and in this way they can let

0:05:12.279 --> 0:05:15.479
<v Speaker 1>the American people be the judge, I think that is

0:05:15.600 --> 0:05:19.040
<v Speaker 1>better for our system. But it also I think would

0:05:19.040 --> 0:05:22.000
<v Speaker 1>protect Democrats from overreach. But I don't think they're going

0:05:22.040 --> 0:05:25.920
<v Speaker 1>to be able to stop themselves from overreach. Um, if

0:05:25.960 --> 0:05:29.520
<v Speaker 1>the information flow continues the way it is. Well, Davidrucker,

0:05:29.600 --> 0:05:32.080
<v Speaker 1>we sure appreciate you coming on on short notice on this,

0:05:32.160 --> 0:05:34.120
<v Speaker 1>and we'll be following your Twitter and your columns and

0:05:34.120 --> 0:05:35.800
<v Speaker 1>all that sort of stuff. We appreciate it. Yeah, go

0:05:35.800 --> 0:05:39.000
<v Speaker 1>get them. Thanks, all right. I wanted to point out

0:05:39.000 --> 0:05:41.640
<v Speaker 1>on Trump side, and for anybody who's supporting Trump, this

0:05:41.640 --> 0:05:43.919
<v Speaker 1>this idea of Mueller coming out and saying if we

0:05:43.960 --> 0:05:46.800
<v Speaker 1>could have proved him innocent, we would we would have

0:05:46.839 --> 0:05:50.000
<v Speaker 1>said it, but we couldn't. That's a ridiculous standard. Piving

0:05:50.040 --> 0:05:53.160
<v Speaker 1>anybody innocent. That's that's almost the proving a negative. I mean,

0:05:53.160 --> 0:05:58.719
<v Speaker 1>it's well, yeah, you you'd be impossible. So him saying that,

0:05:58.800 --> 0:06:01.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm not sure that's a fair thing for any prosecutor

0:06:01.080 --> 0:06:03.200
<v Speaker 1>to say. If I could prove unison, I would have

0:06:03.200 --> 0:06:06.360
<v Speaker 1>and I couldn't. Well, that's not the way this justice

0:06:06.360 --> 0:06:09.400
<v Speaker 1>system works. Yeah, I find that very strange, and I

0:06:09.480 --> 0:06:13.440
<v Speaker 1>find it strange how little that's being challenged. Um, but

0:06:13.520 --> 0:06:15.800
<v Speaker 1>it's it's just people are people are gonna run with

0:06:15.839 --> 0:06:18.839
<v Speaker 1>that all day long, especially on CNN, and that's a

0:06:19.000 --> 0:06:23.160
<v Speaker 1>ridiculous standard. Well, this is all political and that's politics too.

0:06:23.200 --> 0:06:26.200
<v Speaker 1>So but Muller, what you got coming up in your

0:06:26.240 --> 0:06:29.000
<v Speaker 1>news Marshall, Well, we got Robert Mueller's first public statement

0:06:29.000 --> 0:06:31.359
<v Speaker 1>on his Russian investigation. We will review some more of

0:06:31.400 --> 0:06:34.520
<v Speaker 1>those highlights and Robert Bolton's coming out saying Iran is

0:06:34.600 --> 0:06:38.720
<v Speaker 1>behind terror acts and then with against the Southeast coming up.

0:06:39.520 --> 0:06:42.480
<v Speaker 1>All right, got that on his plate to Mr that's right.

0:06:42.520 --> 0:06:44.720
<v Speaker 1>The rest of the world. Arm Strong and Getty show

0:06:47.320 --> 0:07:03.040
<v Speaker 1>are strong and we're standing. Department policy. A president president

0:07:03.120 --> 0:07:06.000
<v Speaker 1>cannot be charged with a federal crime while he is

0:07:06.040 --> 0:07:12.840
<v Speaker 1>in office. That is unconstitutional. Even if the charge is

0:07:12.920 --> 0:07:16.520
<v Speaker 1>kept under sealed and hidden from public view, that too

0:07:16.720 --> 0:07:24.960
<v Speaker 1>is prohibited. Sorr. We are we talking now? I don't know?

0:07:25.200 --> 0:07:29.840
<v Speaker 1>Um uh so A. Mueller gave his report a little

0:07:29.840 --> 0:07:31.440
<v Speaker 1>bit ago. We're gonna jaw about it. Let's get the

0:07:31.480 --> 0:07:33.400
<v Speaker 1>news now with Marshall. Yeah. For the first time in

0:07:33.440 --> 0:07:36.800
<v Speaker 1>more than two years, Special Counsel Robert Mueller talked publicly

0:07:36.840 --> 0:07:41.760
<v Speaker 1>about the key findings in his Russia investigation. Mueller summarizing

0:07:41.840 --> 0:07:45.600
<v Speaker 1>those a few minutes ago, saying that one thing, charging

0:07:45.640 --> 0:07:47.920
<v Speaker 1>President Trump with a crime was not going to be

0:07:47.960 --> 0:07:51.160
<v Speaker 1>an option because of d O J guideline. We did, not, however,

0:07:51.280 --> 0:07:54.160
<v Speaker 1>make a determination as to whether the president did commit

0:07:54.200 --> 0:07:57.840
<v Speaker 1>a crime. The introduction to the Volume two of our

0:07:58.000 --> 0:08:04.840
<v Speaker 1>report explains that decision. It explains that, under longstanding Department policy,

0:08:05.560 --> 0:08:08.800
<v Speaker 1>a president president cannot be charged with a federal crime

0:08:09.000 --> 0:08:11.680
<v Speaker 1>while he is in office. Now. Miller also went on

0:08:11.760 --> 0:08:15.560
<v Speaker 1>to say, if we had had confidence that the president

0:08:15.640 --> 0:08:18.120
<v Speaker 1>clearly did not commit a crime, we would have said so.

0:08:19.400 --> 0:08:23.440
<v Speaker 1>As for the Russian mentaling in the election, Mueller said,

0:08:23.480 --> 0:08:26.480
<v Speaker 1>as alleged by the Grand Jury in an indictment, Russian

0:08:26.520 --> 0:08:31.240
<v Speaker 1>intelligence officers who are part of the Russian military launched

0:08:31.240 --> 0:08:35.880
<v Speaker 1>a concerted attack on our political system. The indictment alleges

0:08:35.960 --> 0:08:40.800
<v Speaker 1>that they use sophisticated cyber techniques to hack into computers

0:08:40.840 --> 0:08:44.640
<v Speaker 1>and networks used by the Clinton campaign. They stole private

0:08:44.800 --> 0:08:49.320
<v Speaker 1>information and then released that information through fake online and

0:08:49.520 --> 0:08:53.920
<v Speaker 1>identities and through the organization wiki leaks. Yeah, we we

0:08:54.040 --> 0:08:59.920
<v Speaker 1>know all that stuff. Um the I'm reading through a

0:09:00.120 --> 0:09:03.520
<v Speaker 1>rereading big chunks of the Muller Report about the alleged,

0:09:03.880 --> 0:09:09.280
<v Speaker 1>um well, sort of kind of alleged obstruction of justice,

0:09:09.400 --> 0:09:12.080
<v Speaker 1>and and I've got to read the whole thing because

0:09:12.280 --> 0:09:15.480
<v Speaker 1>it's a bit of a head scratcher, page after page

0:09:15.520 --> 0:09:20.800
<v Speaker 1>after page of discussion of the President and or Hope

0:09:20.800 --> 0:09:27.840
<v Speaker 1>Picks and or Don Jr. Or whomever um issuing statements

0:09:27.880 --> 0:09:31.840
<v Speaker 1>to the press that were misleading according the report about

0:09:31.880 --> 0:09:34.400
<v Speaker 1>the infamous June ninth meeting at Trump Tower with the

0:09:34.480 --> 0:09:37.959
<v Speaker 1>Russian gall and who said, I guess that they had,

0:09:38.880 --> 0:09:42.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, dirt on Hillary. But it's page after page

0:09:42.160 --> 0:09:45.319
<v Speaker 1>after page of this draft of the email. Then the

0:09:45.320 --> 0:09:47.760
<v Speaker 1>President said to Hope Picks, and Hope Picks was concerned,

0:09:47.800 --> 0:09:49.640
<v Speaker 1>and then her assistant said blah blah blah, and then

0:09:49.640 --> 0:09:52.920
<v Speaker 1>the analysis is most of that was directed or all

0:09:52.960 --> 0:09:55.720
<v Speaker 1>of that was directed at the press, and we didn't

0:09:55.720 --> 0:09:59.560
<v Speaker 1>find any of the president or as people trying to

0:10:00.360 --> 0:10:04.199
<v Speaker 1>halt access to this to our investigation or Congress or

0:10:04.200 --> 0:10:07.000
<v Speaker 1>anybody official. So all of that was directed to the press.

0:10:07.360 --> 0:10:10.480
<v Speaker 1>Now that's some serious investigating, and it's kind of interesting

0:10:10.480 --> 0:10:14.000
<v Speaker 1>to hear how the spin room works. But he has

0:10:14.120 --> 0:10:17.640
<v Speaker 1>pages of stuff that is irrelevant to his investigation. It's

0:10:17.679 --> 0:10:21.320
<v Speaker 1>obstruction of the media. So, like I said, I gotta

0:10:21.360 --> 0:10:23.200
<v Speaker 1>read the rest of it. Where does he get there?

0:10:23.480 --> 0:10:26.320
<v Speaker 1>He talks a lot about the president saying a Corey

0:10:26.400 --> 0:10:28.920
<v Speaker 1>Lewindowski or whatever, you gotta talk to Sessions, we gotta

0:10:28.920 --> 0:10:31.680
<v Speaker 1>get rid of the sky. Then people saying yeah, yeah,

0:10:31.679 --> 0:10:34.720
<v Speaker 1>I'll get on that, but not getting on it. So

0:10:35.240 --> 0:10:37.400
<v Speaker 1>and I'm telling you the question of our will they

0:10:37.440 --> 0:10:40.720
<v Speaker 1>impeach and will and it's gonna be obstruction to justice

0:10:40.800 --> 0:10:44.839
<v Speaker 1>name then impeach on so far that it's just weak.

0:10:45.000 --> 0:10:48.920
<v Speaker 1>The evidence is weak unless you think a blustery businessman

0:10:49.040 --> 0:10:52.160
<v Speaker 1>saying you gotta fire the guy and his assistant saying now,

0:10:52.200 --> 0:10:54.680
<v Speaker 1>we're not going to do that is obstruction to justice.

0:10:55.000 --> 0:10:59.800
<v Speaker 1>Maybe you do, I don't know. Meanwhile, we've got Nationals

0:11:00.000 --> 0:11:04.560
<v Speaker 1>Purity Advisor John Bolton saying Navy minds almost certainly from

0:11:04.559 --> 0:11:07.640
<v Speaker 1>Iran word of blame for the oil tanker damage earlier

0:11:07.720 --> 0:11:10.120
<v Speaker 1>this month in the Gulf of Oman. He's made it

0:11:10.280 --> 0:11:13.000
<v Speaker 1>claim today during a visit to the United Arab Embrutson

0:11:13.120 --> 0:11:16.880
<v Speaker 1>told reporters it is clear that Iran is behind the attack.

0:11:17.000 --> 0:11:20.760
<v Speaker 1>He didn't provide any specific evidence to support the allegation.

0:11:21.200 --> 0:11:23.880
<v Speaker 1>Four ships were sabotaged to the gulf on May twelve,

0:11:23.960 --> 0:11:27.360
<v Speaker 1>two from Saudi Arabia, one from Norway, one from the

0:11:27.559 --> 0:11:31.560
<v Speaker 1>U a E. So Bolton is saying, yes, yes, we're

0:11:31.640 --> 0:11:35.800
<v Speaker 1>sure or certainly almost sure that these uh, these attacks

0:11:35.840 --> 0:11:39.240
<v Speaker 1>were guided by Iran. By the way, I'm just looking

0:11:39.280 --> 0:11:41.200
<v Speaker 1>at the text line on the whole Mueller thing, and

0:11:43.120 --> 0:11:45.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm guessing looking at the text and then I can

0:11:45.240 --> 0:11:49.280
<v Speaker 1>see previous texts from these people. It's yet another event

0:11:49.320 --> 0:11:53.680
<v Speaker 1>to the Mueller thing that no human being is going

0:11:53.720 --> 0:11:56.400
<v Speaker 1>to feel any different than they felt before. From the

0:11:56.480 --> 0:12:00.520
<v Speaker 1>Mueller statement. Yeah, that's probably true. People that support Trump

0:12:00.600 --> 0:12:02.240
<v Speaker 1>feel the same way they felt before, and the people

0:12:02.240 --> 0:12:04.160
<v Speaker 1>that thought Trump should be booted out felt the same way,

0:12:04.200 --> 0:12:06.079
<v Speaker 1>feel the same way they felt Yeah, I'm not sure

0:12:06.080 --> 0:12:09.880
<v Speaker 1>there's anything that would move the needle at all. So

0:12:09.920 --> 0:12:11.600
<v Speaker 1>which makes you wonder why we go through all this? Well,

0:12:11.720 --> 0:12:14.280
<v Speaker 1>I think Drucker is probably right. The Democrats know that

0:12:14.360 --> 0:12:16.640
<v Speaker 1>impeaching the guy would be a mistake because they just

0:12:16.679 --> 0:12:20.680
<v Speaker 1>don't have the American people with them, um, and so

0:12:20.800 --> 0:12:25.079
<v Speaker 1>they will posture, they will investigate, there will be aggressive oversight,

0:12:26.200 --> 0:12:29.880
<v Speaker 1>and that's it. Well, I don't know where that leaves us.

0:12:30.920 --> 0:12:33.240
<v Speaker 1>Got a new report by the Associated Press, it finds

0:12:33.240 --> 0:12:37.280
<v Speaker 1>that managers with the foreign arm of Perdue Pharma have

0:12:37.400 --> 0:12:40.760
<v Speaker 1>been caught up in an opioid corruption probe in Italy.

0:12:41.400 --> 0:12:45.160
<v Speaker 1>They allegedly paid a pain doctor hundreds of thousands of

0:12:45.200 --> 0:12:49.400
<v Speaker 1>dollars to help them sell more drugs. One American congresswoman's

0:12:49.440 --> 0:12:53.079
<v Speaker 1>responding with concern that international health organizations have not learned

0:12:53.080 --> 0:12:56.960
<v Speaker 1>the lesson of the US addiction epidemic. It's the first

0:12:57.000 --> 0:13:00.400
<v Speaker 1>known case outside the US where managers of the vast

0:13:00.480 --> 0:13:05.840
<v Speaker 1>pharma empire have been criminally implicated. Yeah, this this story

0:13:05.920 --> 0:13:08.480
<v Speaker 1>is far from over. What's really compelling about it is

0:13:08.520 --> 0:13:10.560
<v Speaker 1>that we're not talking about, well, you made a drug

0:13:10.600 --> 0:13:12.920
<v Speaker 1>that's addictive, and now people are addicted and we're mad

0:13:12.960 --> 0:13:17.000
<v Speaker 1>at you. I mean, it isn't the idiotic you made

0:13:17.000 --> 0:13:19.800
<v Speaker 1>a ladder and somebody fell off of it type of lawsuit.

0:13:19.920 --> 0:13:22.040
<v Speaker 1>Or now they have to have stickers on every ladder

0:13:22.280 --> 0:13:24.920
<v Speaker 1>saying gravity will pull you to the earth rapidly if

0:13:24.960 --> 0:13:29.000
<v Speaker 1>you fall off and hurt. You know these are material

0:13:29.559 --> 0:13:32.720
<v Speaker 1>uh you know, there's material evidence of lies and misleading

0:13:33.120 --> 0:13:37.080
<v Speaker 1>doctors in the public about the addictive quality equalities because

0:13:37.080 --> 0:13:39.719
<v Speaker 1>they've done the studies, and then bribing of doctors to

0:13:39.760 --> 0:13:42.640
<v Speaker 1>pump out as much as they possibly can, and all

0:13:42.679 --> 0:13:46.400
<v Speaker 1>sorts of evil doing specific evil doing. One last note,

0:13:46.640 --> 0:13:49.400
<v Speaker 1>something completely different. Although we did talk a little bit

0:13:49.400 --> 0:13:53.439
<v Speaker 1>earlier about what your smartphone and the apps are learning

0:13:53.440 --> 0:13:55.520
<v Speaker 1>about you while you sleep. Well, soon you're going to

0:13:55.600 --> 0:13:58.360
<v Speaker 1>be able to play Pokemon in your sleep. The game

0:13:58.440 --> 0:14:01.760
<v Speaker 1>company is saying that it's developed a mobile app called

0:14:01.760 --> 0:14:05.000
<v Speaker 1>Pokemon Sleep. The new app will keep track of how

0:14:05.040 --> 0:14:07.800
<v Speaker 1>long the user sleeps when they wake up and then

0:14:07.920 --> 0:14:11.800
<v Speaker 1>use that data to change the game play. Wonder what

0:14:11.840 --> 0:14:14.880
<v Speaker 1>else they'll be collecting on you while you sleep? Boy,

0:14:15.120 --> 0:14:17.079
<v Speaker 1>there you go, that your news. I'm Marshall Philips y

0:14:17.160 --> 0:14:21.760
<v Speaker 1>Arms Stalking Guinta show the conscience of the Nation. Thank you, Marshall.

0:14:21.800 --> 0:14:23.400
<v Speaker 1>I guess I got ahead of myself. I should have

0:14:23.440 --> 0:14:27.840
<v Speaker 1>described what I'm thinking about. There are is a substantial

0:14:28.320 --> 0:14:32.080
<v Speaker 1>group of Democrats, especially that thinks the President ought to

0:14:32.120 --> 0:14:34.760
<v Speaker 1>be impeached, and they'll be trying to make the case

0:14:35.240 --> 0:14:38.320
<v Speaker 1>for obstruction of justice to get the American people to

0:14:38.360 --> 0:14:40.480
<v Speaker 1>go along with it. I think they're doomed. I think

0:14:40.480 --> 0:14:43.560
<v Speaker 1>everybody's attitudes about the President are baked in. But I'm

0:14:43.600 --> 0:14:46.920
<v Speaker 1>looking at what appears to be to me the media

0:14:46.920 --> 0:14:49.680
<v Speaker 1>ist parts or one of the meaty parts of the

0:14:49.760 --> 0:14:54.440
<v Speaker 1>Mulla report that you could use to charge obstruction, and

0:14:54.480 --> 0:15:01.160
<v Speaker 1>it's it's the president drags drags. He calls lord, uh,

0:15:01.200 --> 0:15:05.160
<v Speaker 1>what's his name, Corey Corey Ludandowski into the small into

0:15:05.200 --> 0:15:08.520
<v Speaker 1>the Oval office and says, listen, you gotta tell us

0:15:08.560 --> 0:15:10.880
<v Speaker 1>the Sessions. I want you to go talk to Jeff Sessions,

0:15:10.960 --> 0:15:14.200
<v Speaker 1>because you know, tell him to say I know I

0:15:14.240 --> 0:15:18.440
<v Speaker 1>recused myself, but our president is being treated very unfairly.

0:15:18.680 --> 0:15:21.560
<v Speaker 1>He shouldn't have a special Prosecutor Council because he hasn't

0:15:21.600 --> 0:15:23.920
<v Speaker 1>done anything wrong. I was with him. There are no

0:15:24.000 --> 0:15:26.800
<v Speaker 1>Russians involved with him. We gotta limit the scope of

0:15:26.840 --> 0:15:31.560
<v Speaker 1>this to future elections because this is crazy. And then

0:15:31.640 --> 0:15:33.600
<v Speaker 1>it's I haven't gotten to the pirate, where it explains

0:15:33.600 --> 0:15:37.800
<v Speaker 1>whether Lewandowski, oh um, he wanted to pass the message

0:15:37.840 --> 0:15:42.440
<v Speaker 1>Sessions in person other instead of over the phone. Lewandowski

0:15:42.720 --> 0:15:47.120
<v Speaker 1>called an arranged from meeting, but Sessions had to counsel

0:15:47.320 --> 0:15:50.000
<v Speaker 1>canceled due to a last minute of conflict. Shortly thereafter,

0:15:50.080 --> 0:15:53.240
<v Speaker 1>Lewandowski left Washington, d C. Without having an opportunity to

0:15:53.280 --> 0:15:56.880
<v Speaker 1>meet with Sessions to convey the message, and so he

0:15:56.960 --> 0:15:59.240
<v Speaker 1>stored the notes at his home and more or less

0:15:59.240 --> 0:16:03.120
<v Speaker 1>forgot about it. So listen, and I'm not trying to

0:16:03.200 --> 0:16:05.960
<v Speaker 1>tell you the answer I think I well, I know

0:16:06.040 --> 0:16:12.800
<v Speaker 1>the answer politically, the answers No, here's the question, can

0:16:12.840 --> 0:16:18.080
<v Speaker 1>the Democrats convince enough Americans and thereby such a flood

0:16:18.080 --> 0:16:22.960
<v Speaker 1>of opinion that it convinces enough Republican Senators that telling

0:16:23.200 --> 0:16:27.720
<v Speaker 1>Corey Lewandowski to go talk to Jeff Sessions to unrecuse

0:16:27.840 --> 0:16:30.560
<v Speaker 1>himself because I didn't collude, And this whole thing is

0:16:30.640 --> 0:16:34.120
<v Speaker 1>stupid and Lewandowski just getting turned down once and staying

0:16:34.160 --> 0:16:36.120
<v Speaker 1>at a hell with it and going home if that's

0:16:36.560 --> 0:16:39.480
<v Speaker 1>obstruction of justice, If you think it is, then you

0:16:39.640 --> 0:16:42.680
<v Speaker 1>gotta impeach. I guess, well, you certainly could impeach, but

0:16:43.240 --> 0:16:47.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm telling you that is not nearly compelling enough to

0:16:47.520 --> 0:16:50.480
<v Speaker 1>sway the minds of enough Americans. So you're gonna hear

0:16:50.520 --> 0:16:53.680
<v Speaker 1>people howling for it. But you know, you get to

0:16:53.760 --> 0:16:56.840
<v Speaker 1>howl in America, Jack, it's the First Amendment, the freedom

0:16:56.880 --> 0:17:02.760
<v Speaker 1>of howling. There's an America get there. So what's his name?

0:17:03.080 --> 0:17:06.840
<v Speaker 1>The guy who does the media show on Fox. He

0:17:06.960 --> 0:17:09.399
<v Speaker 1>was talking about the other day how the media should

0:17:09.440 --> 0:17:12.680
<v Speaker 1>catch on to the fact that the the the House

0:17:12.680 --> 0:17:16.240
<v Speaker 1>Democrats are conducting impeachment without calling an impeachment. That's what

0:17:16.280 --> 0:17:19.120
<v Speaker 1>they're currently doing. Good description, and more people should catch

0:17:19.119 --> 0:17:21.399
<v Speaker 1>on to that. That is, that is what actually what's happening,

0:17:21.680 --> 0:17:23.919
<v Speaker 1>and it might be a good political employ Well, I

0:17:23.920 --> 0:17:26.439
<v Speaker 1>think that's the best one they have. You dodge the

0:17:26.520 --> 0:17:29.720
<v Speaker 1>whole you impeach the president thing. Do you get all

0:17:29.760 --> 0:17:32.439
<v Speaker 1>the benefit of it for your side? Yeah, except for

0:17:32.440 --> 0:17:35.320
<v Speaker 1>booting a guy out of office. Has an election for

0:17:35.359 --> 0:17:38.920
<v Speaker 1>that like sixteen months, and that's not on the table anyway.

0:17:39.200 --> 0:17:41.640
<v Speaker 1>That's not gonna happen because the Senate wouldn't convict. That's

0:17:41.680 --> 0:17:44.680
<v Speaker 1>what we're just talking about. Yeah, there there are Democrats

0:17:44.680 --> 0:17:46.399
<v Speaker 1>who are going to try to build the case that

0:17:46.480 --> 0:17:49.560
<v Speaker 1>this is clearly obstruction America. Come on, who's with me?

0:17:49.920 --> 0:17:52.320
<v Speaker 1>They will fail in that effort, But should the impeachment

0:17:52.320 --> 0:17:54.359
<v Speaker 1>without calling an impeachment? I think is your best option

0:17:54.400 --> 0:17:56.520
<v Speaker 1>if you're a Democrat, super Well, that's gonna keep the

0:17:56.560 --> 0:17:59.359
<v Speaker 1>anchors and anchor ats of CNN and MSNBC employed for

0:17:59.359 --> 0:18:02.040
<v Speaker 1>at least another year and a half. And it's a

0:18:02.080 --> 0:18:04.000
<v Speaker 1>tough way to make a living, so I congratulate them

0:18:04.040 --> 0:18:07.919
<v Speaker 1>on their continued employment. God, we need this election. We

0:18:07.960 --> 0:18:10.119
<v Speaker 1>need this election to happen sooner. Can we move it

0:18:10.160 --> 0:18:11.879
<v Speaker 1>up as if we have a parliament. I'm going for

0:18:11.960 --> 0:18:14.400
<v Speaker 1>Snapolis just to get it settled once and for all.

0:18:14.440 --> 0:18:16.399
<v Speaker 1>If there's enough people that want to keep trumpet office,

0:18:16.440 --> 0:18:18.800
<v Speaker 1>then he stays, and then you gotta shut up about it.

0:18:19.080 --> 0:18:20.520
<v Speaker 1>You just have to shut up about it and have

0:18:20.600 --> 0:18:22.960
<v Speaker 1>him serve a five month and five months the five

0:18:23.000 --> 0:18:25.560
<v Speaker 1>year and five months term. Because we moved up the

0:18:25.560 --> 0:18:29.479
<v Speaker 1>election just to shut everybody up. I wonder if this

0:18:29.520 --> 0:18:32.000
<v Speaker 1>idea has been floated, we go ahead. I think we've

0:18:32.000 --> 0:18:32.919
<v Speaker 1>got it solved. Actually,
