1 00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:04,160 Speaker 1: Hi, I'm Molly John Fast and this is Fast Politics, 2 00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:07,120 Speaker 1: where we discussed the top political headlines with some of 3 00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:12,840 Speaker 1: today's best minds and Washington Post ABC News IPSOS poll 4 00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:17,799 Speaker 1: says Democrats have a fourteen point advantage in certainty that 5 00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:21,599 Speaker 1: they will vote in the midterms, the widest since at 6 00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:24,160 Speaker 1: least two thousand and six. We have such a great 7 00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:28,280 Speaker 1: joke for you today, talking FEDS. Harry Littman stops by 8 00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:33,240 Speaker 1: to talk about the interesting details of the DOJ hiding 9 00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:38,000 Speaker 1: a report that alleges trumpet sexual interactions with the minor. 10 00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:41,760 Speaker 1: Then we'll talk to Congressman Jared Moscow. It's about how 11 00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:44,479 Speaker 1: the public might be able to see more of the 12 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:46,640 Speaker 1: Epstein files. But first the news. 13 00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:50,080 Speaker 2: Milly, I know last night you were like, I can't 14 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:52,640 Speaker 2: believe how much I enjoyed President Trump's State of the 15 00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:55,880 Speaker 2: Union speech. You were just texting me feveredly like, yes, 16 00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:58,279 Speaker 2: these are the greatest moments of my life. Well, I'm 17 00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:00,160 Speaker 2: going to shock you here to tell you since I 18 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:02,680 Speaker 2: was being very sarcastic, that's how everyone else felt. And 19 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:06,040 Speaker 2: this is the least popular speech of the century that's 20 00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:06,560 Speaker 2: been pulled. 21 00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:11,480 Speaker 1: Let's talk about this poll here. Donald Trump's State of 22 00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:15,800 Speaker 1: the Union speech least popular this century. Usually polls are 23 00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:19,920 Speaker 1: split like four ways or five ways, you know, disagree, 24 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 1: strongly disagree, you know, a neutral option, agree and strongly agree. 25 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 1: What happened here is that Donald Trump he has like 26 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 1: the haters. They're really strongly disagreeing, and his hater numbers 27 00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:38,679 Speaker 1: are really really high. 28 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 2: Would you say that this might be the haters and 29 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:42,000 Speaker 2: the losers. 30 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:46,839 Speaker 1: So voters are unconvinced that Trump will lower the cost 31 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 1: of living, and there's a reason for that, and that's 32 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: because he won't. 33 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:54,480 Speaker 2: What was also really interesting is the c SPED dial 34 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 2: poll last night that tanked for him. Like people, even 35 00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 2: the Republicans turned down the dial toy. We don't believe 36 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 2: that what do you say is true? 37 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 1: It was a speech where Trump did a lot of 38 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 1: his usual shtick, and the cost of living problems are big, 39 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:15,399 Speaker 1: and you have someone who has literally come into office 40 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:19,119 Speaker 1: and has made things worse and was offered I mean, 41 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 1: I think voters sort of understand that. Overturning the tariffs 42 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:25,360 Speaker 1: the way the Supreme Court did gave Donald Trump an 43 00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 1: off ramp, which he refused to take. Nearly two thirds 44 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:34,239 Speaker 1: of speech watchers said they had at least a somewhat 45 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:38,799 Speaker 1: positive reaction to Trump's speech. So remember those are, by 46 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 1: the way, Republicans, right, because most of the people who 47 00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:46,360 Speaker 1: were watching that speech were Republicans, and they didn't like 48 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:48,639 Speaker 1: it as much as they had liked it last year. 49 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:52,240 Speaker 1: So I mean, you're really seeing, like the speech and 50 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 1: the pulling all sort of reflecting the same sense, which 51 00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:59,960 Speaker 1: is that after a decade of this, even Trump's most 52 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 1: fervent folks are getting exhausted. 53 00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:07,359 Speaker 2: Well, if you wanted more proof about how unpopular he is. 54 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 2: During the State of the Union last night, Democrats won 55 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 2: three elections. 56 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. So they were special elections, as there are often 57 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 1: on Tuesdays. These were two in Pennsylvania and one in 58 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 1: the Great State of Maine and their state legislative seats. 59 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,919 Speaker 1: And again you have a democratic governor in both of 60 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 1: those states, and Shapiro is like this very popular governor. 61 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 1: Mills polls much as well. But they both need to 62 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 1: have a democratic state house in order to get anything done. 63 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 1: So these are big wins for both of them. And 64 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 1: again it just shows that special elections Democrats have been 65 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 1: wildly overperforming. 66 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:56,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, and we've been seeing that consistently throughout the last year. 67 00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 2: Since Trump was elected and goes along with a lot 68 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 2: of pulling are seeing So I know you and I 69 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 2: have often been skeptical of some pulling, but uh, the 70 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 2: elections keep lining up with the polls. 71 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 3: Yeah. 72 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 1: All that's about to change, though, because the face of 73 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:17,720 Speaker 1: this administration, that giddy young fellow, everyone's favorite FBI. 74 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 2: Head can get you here is either face or the 75 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:21,840 Speaker 2: eyes of the administration. 76 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 1: I was trying not to do that. 77 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 2: Well, what the FBI is always watching, BALI that's what 78 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 2: I met by that. 79 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 1: Yes, so the FBI, which has historically been headed by 80 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 1: a serious suit wearing kind of boring Republican but you know, 81 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 1: sort of can I. 82 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 2: Give you another pushbuck suit wearing j Edgar Hoover. I 83 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:46,280 Speaker 2: don't think that's what it was. 84 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 1: We knew just said. 85 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:49,920 Speaker 3: So. 86 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 1: The job once occupied by boring tall guy James call 87 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 1: me is now occupied by short, party loving Cash Battale. 88 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: This weekend, he took the jet to the men's hockey game, 89 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 1: where he then did an incredible TikTok of drinking beer 90 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 1: in Milan discuss So. 91 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,239 Speaker 2: When Charlie Kirk, who is a hero for them, was murdered, 92 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 2: it took a little while for the investigation to get 93 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:23,040 Speaker 2: started because somebody was busily traveling on some jets that 94 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 2: they weren't supposed to do. 95 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, and we keep seeing this again and again. 96 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 1: When the federal government works, nobody thinks about it. It's like, 97 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: you know, it's like federal aviation. When it works, you 98 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 1: just don't think about it if you're a normal airline flyer. 99 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:42,280 Speaker 1: But when it doesn't work, everybody notices. And so we 100 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 1: saw this this summer when the FBI took somebody in 101 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 1: it wasn't the right guy. Tweeted about how they had 102 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:53,240 Speaker 1: somebody in custody. Wasn't the right guy. And this is 103 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 1: the thing we've seen before too, with a lot of 104 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,800 Speaker 1: these different high profile cases, is that the FBI take 105 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 1: somebody in the follow a tip it doesn't work. And 106 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 1: this is a whistleblower who I think has got a 107 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:08,279 Speaker 1: good point here. And look, there's a reason that the 108 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:13,040 Speaker 1: FBI is historically though again to talk about Hoover for 109 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: a minute, hasn't always been nonpartisan, but it's supposed to 110 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:20,640 Speaker 1: be nonpartisan. Is because catching bad guys should not be 111 00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 1: a partisan activity. It should just be something that the 112 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:27,719 Speaker 1: FBI does. That was not why Cash Buttel took the job. 113 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 1: He took the job to do cool shit like going 114 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 1: to the Olympics, and during the time when he was 115 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 1: supposed to be looking for the killer of Charlie Kirk, 116 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:44,840 Speaker 1: they couldn't get the planes because Patel had been engaged 117 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 1: in irresponsible joy riding on FBI operated aircraft's at the 118 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 1: expense of the American taxpayer. I just want to point 119 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 1: out this is not all that different than what everyone's favorite. 120 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 1: Christy no secretary of private jets. She's trying to buy 121 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:07,720 Speaker 1: a new one. She also does. 122 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 2: That, you know, a legal deportation mascot has circled around 123 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 2: my brain a lot. 124 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a good one. I don't know as someone 125 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 1: who enjoys plastic surgery, I thought she looked like she 126 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 1: was melting last night too much. Baby. 127 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 2: I think that's a general vibe for her. Yeah, okay. 128 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 2: So when we think of the woke leftist Marxist as 129 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:28,680 Speaker 2: mister Trump likes to talk about, you know who, I 130 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 2: often think of that with that as Goldman Sachs. You know, 131 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 2: they are so so anti capitalist, so and so. One 132 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 2: of the things we do this economy is built on 133 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 2: right now, is ai one of the weird things we're 134 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 2: seeing is all these companies release people from their jobs 135 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:47,720 Speaker 2: and then go, oh, this didn't help. These AI agents 136 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 2: are working the way that all the hypists told us 137 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 2: they would. And so now we have a report from 138 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 2: Goldman Sachs that is very similar to a report from 139 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 2: Apple that also said nearly the exact same thing, which 140 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 2: is AI added basically zero to US economic growth last year. 141 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 1: Yes, in case you're wondering if AI is a bubble, 142 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 1: gold In Zacks says, yes, AI added basically zero, which 143 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 1: means the Donald Trump hockey video, one of the great 144 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 1: pieces of AI slop, is not adding to our economy. 145 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 1: I am shocked. It turns out that the AI revolution 146 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 1: is we don't actually view AI investments as strong growth positive. 147 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,440 Speaker 1: I think there's a lot of misreporting the impact of 148 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 1: AI investments had on the US GDP growth in twenty 149 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 1: twenty five. It's much smaller than is often perceived. Oh, 150 00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 1: I feel like we're you know, it's like wiley coyote 151 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:51,320 Speaker 1: running off the cliff. 152 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:52,840 Speaker 2: You know. And I keep thinking of it's not a 153 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:55,680 Speaker 2: house of cards. It's a house of cards where the 154 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 2: cards are printed on it, or a bunch of pictures 155 00:08:58,040 --> 00:08:59,800 Speaker 2: of a very muscular Donald Trump. 156 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:06,720 Speaker 1: Things are going great. Harry Littman is a former US 157 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:11,080 Speaker 1: attorney in the host of the podcast Talking Feds. Welcome, Welcome, Harry. 158 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 1: We're having our Talking Feds fast politics matchup, mash up, 159 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:20,680 Speaker 1: not match up the hope. I want to talk to 160 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:25,320 Speaker 1: you about these Epstein files. So the big news is 161 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 1: that Congressman Garcia, who actually we've all been talking to. 162 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:32,079 Speaker 1: I interviewed him yesterday. He's on the scene as the 163 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:35,960 Speaker 1: ranking member of oversight. James Comer is of course the 164 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 1: chair of the oversight. Because Republicans control the House, they 165 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:42,960 Speaker 1: control the committees. But basically this has been reported by 166 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 1: NPR and also our friend Roger Sullenberger. But there are 167 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 1: all of these missing files, and what we have is 168 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:55,679 Speaker 1: the numbers of the files are in the FBI disclosure 169 00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:58,680 Speaker 1: but then the files are missing. Talk us through what 170 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:02,120 Speaker 1: we're seeing with the Epstein files, and this is just 171 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 1: this strane of documents. 172 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:04,960 Speaker 4: It's really true. 173 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:06,880 Speaker 5: By the way, Good to be with you, Molly, mash 174 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 5: up excellent, excellent old culture reference. So look, here's the 175 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 5: important thing, Molly. These are the crown jewel kinds of documents. 176 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:18,720 Speaker 5: When it came time to what has been revealed before, 177 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 5: what hasn't What everyone wanted to see was so called 178 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 5: three oh two reports filed by FBI agents to memorialize interviews. 179 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,320 Speaker 1: I want you to explain exactly what a three tozho 180 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,679 Speaker 1: two document is because I've heard about it endlessly, but 181 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 1: no one has ever said down and explained to me 182 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:37,840 Speaker 1: what it is. 183 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 4: You come in. You're a victim. 184 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:42,200 Speaker 5: First of all, we saw in that horrendous hearing with 185 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,559 Speaker 5: BONDI most of the victims haven't even had a chance 186 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:47,959 Speaker 5: to go to the DOJ. This is one who did 187 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 5: sat down with an FBI agent and gave her a story, 188 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:56,319 Speaker 5: and the FBI agent sort of mechanistically writes down everything she. 189 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:58,439 Speaker 4: Said, so we know what the allegations are. 190 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 1: And that's what a three to OO two and. 191 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 4: The three h two is that report. 192 00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 5: So from the start we knew there'd be emails that 193 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:09,840 Speaker 5: don't talk about much. So, by the way, you're really awesome. 194 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 5: New York Times op ed shows the panoramic scope of 195 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 5: this whole thing, with all the currency that isn't straight 196 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 5: up sex trafficking. But these are the very memos that show, 197 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 5: among other things, what he's alleged to have done, but 198 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:27,079 Speaker 5: also when the DOJ knew about it and what they 199 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 5: did about it. So here these are the majority of 200 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:34,040 Speaker 5: three h two reports from a victim who we know 201 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:40,079 Speaker 5: was talking about Trump, and somehow mysteriously they've disappeared. It's 202 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:43,800 Speaker 5: just one example NPR did its detective work. There could 203 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:48,280 Speaker 5: be others, but this alone, Molly, are the very sorts 204 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 5: of documents that people who know what's in an FBI 205 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 5: file have been most eager to see. What exactly did 206 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:58,680 Speaker 5: the victims tell you? What are the allegations? This is 207 00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 5: the sort of document would use, for example, to build 208 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 5: a criminal investigation or whatever you would do with it. 209 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:08,040 Speaker 5: But this is the real, you know, kind of money 210 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 5: documents of the of the pile. 211 00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:10,840 Speaker 1: And they're missing. 212 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 5: First of all, I think there's something like fifteen in 213 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 5: total from this victim. Only one has been made public. 214 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:21,120 Speaker 5: Apparently some others have been revealed to Congress, but the 215 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 5: majority have just not been revealed, which we know only 216 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 5: because NBR happened to stumble across it. So it goes 217 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:31,680 Speaker 5: to this broader point, if I can, which is somehow 218 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:36,200 Speaker 5: DOOJ and Todd Blanche, even though they were late and 219 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:39,760 Speaker 5: non compliant, all the way never said anything about redactions. 220 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 5: They seem, I think, to be an aposter of raising 221 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:47,840 Speaker 5: it out with a couple million documents undlivered at least 222 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 5: from what they'd estimated, and just hope that like, oh, 223 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:53,679 Speaker 5: we're sort of done now. We did our best, and 224 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 5: this is an example of what their best it is. 225 00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 1: So let's talk about a three or two for a second. 226 00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 1: We have all of these victims who are hanging out, 227 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 1: going to events. Some are going to be at the 228 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:10,199 Speaker 1: State of the Union tonight. We know that Schumer is 229 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 1: bringing Danny Belski, who's one of the clearest communicators of 230 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 1: the victims, and I met her before. She's really great. 231 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 1: All of these victims have told Representative Garcia, have told me, 232 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,839 Speaker 1: have told others that they have sat for three O 233 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 1: two's and they do not want their testimony to be redacted, 234 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 1: and they don't understand why it would be redacted. Explain 235 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 1: to us why a three to two, what the rationale 236 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 1: for these reactions are if there is a rationale, And 237 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:43,439 Speaker 1: I also want you to talk about the way this 238 00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:48,199 Speaker 1: law was written. It's written so that BONDI was supposed 239 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:50,880 Speaker 1: to explain the reactions. 240 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 4: Great questions and look you and I were together. 241 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:55,120 Speaker 5: We've been on deadline whin I was with a victim 242 00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 5: who's and I want to add one thing, which is 243 00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:00,200 Speaker 5: my understanding. And this was from the BONDI hearing a 244 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:03,160 Speaker 5: lot of them wanted to but never got the chance 245 00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 5: to talk to the FBI. Anyway, the FBI sits down 246 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 5: and takes down everything, including the names of the people 247 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 5: who were involved, especially the names of the people who 248 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 5: were involved, and these missing documents we have reason to 249 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 5: think have Donald Trump all over them, and maybe others who. 250 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 4: Else could substantiate this, etc. Etc. 251 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 5: Now the Epstein Transparency Act, this is also really important 252 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:30,600 Speaker 5: because there are normal rules that the DOJ could apply 253 00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 5: when asked to give documents, for example, don't give over 254 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 5: grand jury documents. Epstein Transparency Act voted on by every 255 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,080 Speaker 5: member of Congress, but one signed in the law by Trump. 256 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 5: Trump saw that it says, here are the narrow reasons 257 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 5: you can redact, and only these, so your other reasons 258 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:52,880 Speaker 5: are out the window. Redactions they're supposed to make. One 259 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:57,280 Speaker 5: of them is for victim confidentiality, so we're not supposed 260 00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 5: to find out victim's names. Of course, as it turns out, 261 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:04,080 Speaker 5: we found out not only victims' names, but also pictures 262 00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:07,480 Speaker 5: and what was redacted a lot of names. It sure 263 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:13,920 Speaker 5: appears of big shot customers or people otherwise involved with Epstein. 264 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 5: Witness again your New York Times up in all kinds 265 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:18,520 Speaker 5: of people. 266 00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 4: He was a concierge to the rich. 267 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:24,840 Speaker 5: As you put it, they get somehow get blacked out 268 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:28,400 Speaker 5: even though there's no legal authority. But the final point 269 00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 5: that you raised about Bondie, and there's a lot going 270 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 5: on with redactions, Yes, they're required, so you can evaluate 271 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 5: them because anything they could react could potentially yield. They 272 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 5: have to give a real reason. Well, in this case, 273 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:44,800 Speaker 5: we're saying this, and here are the three reasons that qualifies. 274 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:48,880 Speaker 5: They've done that exactly zero times. They've made a few 275 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 5: kind of general thoughts about why they did it, and 276 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:56,760 Speaker 5: they've given Congress or court nothing to work with. They 277 00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 5: say they will down the line. That's a really big 278 00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 5: deal for you know, from the lawyer's standpoint, knowing if 279 00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 5: they've done it right. Okay, hey, my turn, but I 280 00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 5: want to stick with Epstein. You know, we find out 281 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 5: in the last week this huge disconnect between you know, 282 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:17,560 Speaker 5: clearly the center of Epstein's activity and as you put 283 00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:21,360 Speaker 5: it again is big concierge service doling out jobs in 284 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:24,680 Speaker 5: Woody Allen movies or the like. Is the United States, 285 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:30,160 Speaker 5: and here the fallout has been relatively muted and basically 286 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:35,000 Speaker 5: zero in the government I'm thinking of Howard Latnik in particular. 287 00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:39,480 Speaker 5: But in Europe it's been huge their investigations, not necessarily 288 00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:43,080 Speaker 5: even about the sex stuff. Andrew is now under criminal 289 00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 5: arrest because of maybe having fed him private information. What 290 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 5: is the kind of political underpinnings of the fact that 291 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:56,760 Speaker 5: until now the fallout is next to nothing here, the 292 00:16:56,800 --> 00:17:00,160 Speaker 5: real fallout, you know, in terms of like careers and 293 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 5: as you and like Asha. When Goppa's point about shame 294 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 5: so much less here than Europe, what the hell? 295 00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:10,480 Speaker 1: So I think that there are two things happening here. 296 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,920 Speaker 1: One is that so there have been two arrests. One 297 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:18,199 Speaker 1: was Andrew, and we had the King of England saying like, 298 00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:21,760 Speaker 1: don't stop justice on my account. And then we had 299 00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:26,680 Speaker 1: Peter Mandelsson who had been brought in as the ambassador 300 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:29,640 Speaker 1: to the UK. And remember we had had a UK 301 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 1: ambassador who was a woman. Was just a very strange 302 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 1: changeover and again Peter Mandelssohn may end up being the 303 00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:42,879 Speaker 1: undoing of this government of the UK government because he 304 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 1: was put in this job. So not only have a 305 00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 1: UK government that is grappling with Epstein, we have real 306 00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 1: accountability for even tearstormer stormers. So we really have a 307 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:57,400 Speaker 1: moment where the UK looks just wildly ahead of us. 308 00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,040 Speaker 1: But what I would say is that we don't I 309 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:04,720 Speaker 1: don't know how this will play ultimately, and I think 310 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:09,880 Speaker 1: it's worth pausing for that and just saying that for now, 311 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:13,639 Speaker 1: it looks like Trump is covering for his government, and 312 00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:18,399 Speaker 1: he's keeping people like Howard Lutnik staunchly in place, and 313 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:21,440 Speaker 1: maybe that keeps on, but maybe it doesn't. I think 314 00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:24,959 Speaker 1: that accountability, you know, you can evade it for only 315 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:28,919 Speaker 1: so long. And so while Trump is making a case 316 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,359 Speaker 1: that he can keep Howard Lutnik in there, that he 317 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:34,919 Speaker 1: can keep there are many many people in the Trump 318 00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:39,800 Speaker 1: cabinet who are in a Epstein world. Right, You've got Lutinik, 319 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 1: You've got John falen Flew on the plane, and you 320 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:47,360 Speaker 1: have just a lot of trumb right Donald Trump numerous times, 321 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:50,399 Speaker 1: I think we'll see more of this accountability. And I 322 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 1: think that Trump's polling is through the floor and his 323 00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:56,359 Speaker 1: whole thing has been like he never fires anyone. But 324 00:18:56,440 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 1: there's a reason that people fire people. They fire members 325 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 1: of their cabinet, and there's an argument to be made 326 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:07,480 Speaker 1: that Trump would be better off if he would fire people. Yeah, 327 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:09,679 Speaker 1: I want to talk about the three or twos for 328 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:15,000 Speaker 1: another minute, Okay, because we're looking at these documents that 329 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 1: are missing, and news Channel four in the UK said 330 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,439 Speaker 1: that this is only like four somewhere between two and 331 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,480 Speaker 1: four percent of all of the tranches of data because 332 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 1: they were looking at the numbers the terabyte the Trump 333 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:31,920 Speaker 1: administration BONDI says that's it, this is all of it, 334 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 1: or that maybe there's another three million documents missing. I 335 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 1: wonder if you One of the things that I've been 336 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:42,119 Speaker 1: struck by is that supposedly there are members of the 337 00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:48,240 Speaker 1: FBI who are quietly saying that there's more that clear alay, 338 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:51,680 Speaker 1: if you're a member of the FBI, you've been doing 339 00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 1: this for a long time, you have dedicated your life 340 00:19:55,880 --> 00:20:00,120 Speaker 1: to this, right, you did this instead of doing perhaps 341 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 1: more high paying job in the private sector. Like there 342 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 1: are clearly whistleblowers out there who may or may not 343 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 1: come forward. I wonder what you think there's clearly more documents, 344 00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:13,639 Speaker 1: more accountability, and were you one of those whistleblowers, what 345 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:14,399 Speaker 1: would that look like. 346 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:17,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, so it's a great and important question. 347 00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:20,919 Speaker 5: First, this two to four percent or any kind of 348 00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 5: quantitative assessment of the like is meaningless. It's always been 349 00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:30,679 Speaker 5: clear one that there are a relative small number, and 350 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 5: next if the denominator is three million of incendiary documents, 351 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:40,359 Speaker 5: and two that this administration really knows how to be selective. 352 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:43,120 Speaker 5: The very first day when it was supposed to give 353 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:47,119 Speaker 5: over everything, magically one hundred documents appear. That made the 354 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,920 Speaker 5: whole thing look like it had to do with Bill Clinton. 355 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:52,280 Speaker 4: That was not done randomly. 356 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:52,640 Speaker 2: Right. 357 00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:56,159 Speaker 5: If there are two percent of three million that have 358 00:20:56,280 --> 00:21:00,640 Speaker 5: to do with Trump and they've been withheld, that's a scandal. Second, 359 00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:03,119 Speaker 5: on again on the three h twos, you make a 360 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:04,720 Speaker 5: really look the FBI. 361 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:06,879 Speaker 4: It's not that they've just devoted their career. 362 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:10,640 Speaker 5: The rank and file of the FBI, there's very good 363 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 5: reason to think is just furious with the administration. Even 364 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 5: though they are tend to be politically conservative, they have 365 00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:24,320 Speaker 5: been so mistreated and bible and politicized. Patel and Bonji, 366 00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:27,080 Speaker 5: you know, are such jokers. This is a legal point 367 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 5: to make but it's true, it's really really precarious to 368 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 5: try to cover up a document because there are so 369 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,840 Speaker 5: many copies here and there. So I think it is 370 00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:42,159 Speaker 5: likely that individual agents might well know. Third on the 371 00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:44,400 Speaker 5: way on, how how would it then work for them 372 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:47,200 Speaker 5: to bring it to light? First, there's all the unofficial 373 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:50,400 Speaker 5: routes that you know as well as I better, where 374 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 5: you know, somebody gives you a call. But there is 375 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:56,920 Speaker 5: also whistleblower protection. Now, this administration, as part of its 376 00:21:56,960 --> 00:22:03,040 Speaker 5: process of completely you know, corrupted protections for employees of 377 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:07,199 Speaker 5: the executive branch, and we can look at the whistleblower 378 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:11,320 Speaker 5: complain against Christy newm has done things to bottle those 379 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:14,679 Speaker 5: up or or kind of make them seem unimportant with 380 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:18,119 Speaker 5: their own hand picked inspectors General. But I tend to 381 00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:22,200 Speaker 5: agree with you that while it's hard to really identify 382 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:26,640 Speaker 5: the mechanism, man oh man, if there's somecendiary stuff there, 383 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:30,040 Speaker 5: at a minimum, they're playing with fire trying. 384 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 4: To suppress it. Just too many different copies. 385 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 1: If there's incendiary stuff, they're playing with fire. 386 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 4: Absolutely, you know that better than I. 387 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 1: Right, because why because the leaks, oh. 388 00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:44,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, if it comes out, it's not just the content 389 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:47,159 Speaker 5: it's the fact of the cover up that used to 390 00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:49,639 Speaker 5: be the Washington adage. I mean the eighteen and a 391 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:54,360 Speaker 5: half minutes for Nixon for our older like me listeners. Okay, 392 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:57,399 Speaker 5: a general question, but we are at a point and 393 00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,479 Speaker 5: you've just averted to it where his numbers are really 394 00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:04,679 Speaker 5: plunging historic lows. And I do think it's sort of 395 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 5: catching on this notion, certainly in places like Minnesota that man, 396 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:12,640 Speaker 5: oh man, this is whatever I reason I voted for him, 397 00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:15,760 Speaker 5: this is not the America I wanted, and the price 398 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:19,160 Speaker 5: to democracy it's really corrosive, et cetera. But you see 399 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:23,200 Speaker 5: a lot of Democrats saying that don't get too cocky 400 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,639 Speaker 5: on this stuff. You really have to make it. It 401 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 5: also so happens he's totally whatcher the economy. The terroifts 402 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,119 Speaker 5: are going to be paid for by the American people. 403 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:34,959 Speaker 5: So I just wonder if you have views about the 404 00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:39,440 Speaker 5: Dems need to not go too strong on the sorts 405 00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:43,160 Speaker 5: of things I think about every day, the erosion of democracy, 406 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:46,000 Speaker 5: and to stay on you know, kitchen table issues. 407 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:48,800 Speaker 1: No, I think it's a huge mistake to just to 408 00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 1: do that. Used to do everything, and especially people are 409 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:55,720 Speaker 1: so mad about Epstein and you know, I think just 410 00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 1: make it Ebstein in the files, the releases. Where are 411 00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:04,240 Speaker 1: the cover up, Pam Bondy. I mean the idea that 412 00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:09,160 Speaker 1: you should focus just on one thing, especially when it 413 00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:13,080 Speaker 1: is so clear that the American people are not moron 414 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:16,320 Speaker 1: and that they can hold all sorts of opinions at once. 415 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:19,200 Speaker 1: So I think that the whole thinking that they can 416 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:21,120 Speaker 1: only talk about one thing is a mistake. 417 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:21,560 Speaker 2: Good. 418 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:26,040 Speaker 1: So let's talk speaking of not being able to talk 419 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:28,240 Speaker 1: and think about more than one thing at once. I 420 00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:31,200 Speaker 1: want you to explain to us when we look at 421 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:35,920 Speaker 1: the criminal complaints around Epstein. So one of the things 422 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,920 Speaker 1: when I talked to Robert Garcia was on our last 423 00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:42,400 Speaker 1: episode he talked about how he's hoping that other states 424 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:46,960 Speaker 1: will continue with criminal charges out of the Epstein flows. 425 00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:49,359 Speaker 1: Talk us through what it would look like if you 426 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:53,400 Speaker 1: were a New York Attorney general, or you know, if 427 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:56,400 Speaker 1: you were trying to make criminal cases out of some 428 00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:58,280 Speaker 1: of these documents, what it might look like. 429 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:01,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, man, another great question. And you're you're you should 430 00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:03,479 Speaker 5: go to law school. Well, you already have been in 431 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:04,880 Speaker 5: And I do want to point out, by the way, 432 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 5: your new subspact pure unadulterated. Mollie is really stormed out 433 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:14,920 Speaker 5: of the gate. Okay, in general, big big issue parallel 434 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:19,119 Speaker 5: jurisdiction between state and federal. In general, you have to 435 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:21,479 Speaker 5: have something happen in a state that's a crime. 436 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:23,400 Speaker 4: New York's a great example. 437 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,879 Speaker 5: They have a what's called the Martin Act that gives 438 00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:30,359 Speaker 5: them all because New York is the seat of so 439 00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:33,159 Speaker 5: much stock, the New York Stock Exchange and the like 440 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:36,080 Speaker 5: that a lot of things that would be federal fraud 441 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:40,040 Speaker 5: are also fraud there. And then it's also the case 442 00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:42,679 Speaker 5: a lot of these potential crimes are really kind of 443 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:47,840 Speaker 5: tawdry and you know, sort of uh small in their 444 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:52,600 Speaker 5: fact pattern, and if they took place in an individual state, 445 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 5: it's basically there are it's more the case than not, Molly. 446 00:25:57,640 --> 00:25:59,639 Speaker 5: I guess this is how I put it, that a 447 00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:04,080 Speaker 5: crime within a state's borders that has a federal statute 448 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 5: will have a state statute. So you know, it's both 449 00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:12,639 Speaker 5: that the facts took place there, so there's jurisdiction, but 450 00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:16,720 Speaker 5: then also at least certain states, new York pre eminent 451 00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:21,119 Speaker 5: among them, have ways, like the Feds have ways of 452 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:26,479 Speaker 5: getting at things broadly. Even though the downstream impacts are 453 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:29,400 Speaker 5: kind of nationwide because of how they originated. 454 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:32,439 Speaker 1: Say your tiss James's office, you're working in that office, 455 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:37,040 Speaker 1: you see a allegation, say you see a three or 456 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,240 Speaker 1: two that's redacted, but not that redacted, So that means 457 00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:44,040 Speaker 1: you have a witness, you have a crime. Say you 458 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:47,879 Speaker 1: have an unindicted co conspirators list. Can you make a 459 00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:48,560 Speaker 1: case from that? 460 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:51,280 Speaker 4: Well, that's the question exactly. 461 00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 5: We're seeing this in Minnesota, where states normally would get 462 00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:58,000 Speaker 5: the cooperation of the federal government for the shootings of 463 00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:01,320 Speaker 5: Pretty and Good, and not only aren't they getting it, 464 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:06,160 Speaker 5: the Feds are trying to actually impose obstacles and say. 465 00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:07,480 Speaker 4: We're not going to give you this name. 466 00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:07,720 Speaker 3: Were not. 467 00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 5: So the answer is, yeah, you got to start from 468 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:13,359 Speaker 5: scratch and develop it. You couldn't use the three to 469 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 5: zero two anyway, but it's now been made publicly available. 470 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:20,399 Speaker 5: Lots of cases originate in public materials like what was 471 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,920 Speaker 5: in the paper yesterday. But you've got to start from scratch. 472 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:26,160 Speaker 5: So you got to find this favor. And by the way, 473 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:29,159 Speaker 5: here's a big thing. If we're thinking about Epstein statutes 474 00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 5: of limitations for certain sex assault crimes or murder, there 475 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,760 Speaker 5: isn't one, but for a lot of the hijinks of 476 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:40,439 Speaker 5: the sword you document again and then New York times 477 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:44,320 Speaker 5: off bad. This statute would already have run. So lots 478 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:46,959 Speaker 5: of procedural obstacles, and the Feds are going to make 479 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:50,320 Speaker 5: it harder. But theoretically, yes, you just got to start 480 00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:50,920 Speaker 5: from scratch. 481 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:55,200 Speaker 1: But the statute of sex crimes is there has been 482 00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:56,960 Speaker 1: extended in New York State. 483 00:27:57,160 --> 00:27:58,439 Speaker 4: That's right. Two things. 484 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 5: It had a window where you could bring claims that 485 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:06,200 Speaker 5: had to do with then that's why Trump was also 486 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:09,359 Speaker 5: charged with a crime in the e Gen Carrol case. 487 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:10,959 Speaker 4: I think that was a narrow window. 488 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 5: But in general, sexual assault statutes of limitations sometimes go 489 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:19,720 Speaker 5: forever because it's so often the case that the damage 490 00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:23,399 Speaker 5: or even the knowledge of it doesn't fully develop and 491 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:25,840 Speaker 5: tell a victim is older. So for the sex crime jest. 492 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:28,520 Speaker 5: But you know, your point is really important. I think 493 00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:31,880 Speaker 5: how he had such a network of different things. Andrew 494 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:34,960 Speaker 5: has been arrested not because of this. That's that's also 495 00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 5: the same behavior that the general counsel of Goldman Sachs 496 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,040 Speaker 5: had to resign over a lot of that stuff will 497 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:45,600 Speaker 5: be really hard to reach for. Statute of limitations reasons now, 498 00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:48,280 Speaker 5: but still have political salience. 499 00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:50,720 Speaker 1: Right exactly, all right, So do you have another question 500 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:51,040 Speaker 1: for me? 501 00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:53,240 Speaker 4: So I want to switch to the refunds and the tariffs. 502 00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:55,480 Speaker 5: There's you know we're finding out now they're trying to 503 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:58,080 Speaker 5: put it on other grounds, et cetera. I don't want 504 00:28:58,080 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 5: to ask about any of the law stuff, but I 505 00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 5: think we can expect even though the Department of Justice 506 00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 5: said last year, if this is struck down, we'll return 507 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:07,520 Speaker 5: it all. Give me a break, they're going to impose 508 00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:10,880 Speaker 5: all kinds of obstacles. It could be you know, legal 509 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:13,600 Speaker 5: tangles for years and years. As Trump said, I just 510 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:16,040 Speaker 5: want to ask you politically, you know, what's going to 511 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 5: be the impact of people not seeing companies not seeing refunds. 512 00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 4: How volatile an issue. 513 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:27,360 Speaker 5: Is this if they just you know, never never give 514 00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:28,000 Speaker 5: the money back. 515 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:33,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, So FedEx just soon today for the refunds. So 516 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 1: it is certainly possible that we see a real court case. 517 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:40,320 Speaker 1: And look, you know, here's what's going to happen. Since 518 00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:43,360 Speaker 1: Supreme Court has said no go on the tariffs, Trump 519 00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:46,440 Speaker 1: has tweeted a lot of angry stuff, and since going 520 00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:47,880 Speaker 1: to be ten percent, and then it's going to be 521 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:52,720 Speaker 1: fifteen percent. I think there's a scenario. 522 00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:58,360 Speaker 6: Where FedEx sues and Trump decides that he's going to 523 00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:01,320 Speaker 6: like push back in the court of public opinion, and 524 00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:04,600 Speaker 6: then the ADMIN is going to quietly settle, Like we've 525 00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:08,200 Speaker 6: seen that before, that admin quietly loses in court. 526 00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:13,200 Speaker 1: Trump loves the tariffs because they are a vehicle for kryptocracy, 527 00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:17,840 Speaker 1: because he can negotiate in a way that is kryptocratic 528 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:21,080 Speaker 1: at best. I think I still think there's a scenario 529 00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:24,479 Speaker 1: where they lose in court and it doesn't matter and 530 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 1: he just keeps obfuscating. 531 00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:30,000 Speaker 5: Or then maybe FedEx but lather rents, repeat with the 532 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 5: other companies. 533 00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:34,760 Speaker 1: Fedick's a huge company, and they'll be more if they 534 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:39,200 Speaker 1: sense that there's possible when this could be very bad 535 00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:42,960 Speaker 1: for Trump world. And again, I don't think that FedEx 536 00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:47,440 Speaker 1: is ideological. I think they're practical. So you know, this 537 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 1: is like a dumb It's not dumb because it's what 538 00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:53,640 Speaker 1: Trump wants. It does the thing that Trump wants it 539 00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:56,200 Speaker 1: to do. But I still think it could unravel the 540 00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:56,720 Speaker 1: whole thing. 541 00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 4: Well, it's always fun. See you next month. 542 00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:05,400 Speaker 1: Than great to see you.

Everything is great? 547 00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 3: Why is there something going on? I s could know 548 00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:17,479 Speaker 3: about nothing? 549 00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:20,680 Speaker 1: Oversight it seems to be in a Twitter war with 550 00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:26,480 Speaker 1: GOP rapid response on Twitter formerly Twitter now acts the 551 00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 1: Epstein files. Talk us to where you guys are with 552 00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:30,480 Speaker 1: the Epstein files. 553 00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:33,200 Speaker 3: Well, look, first of all, you know, the Overset Committee 554 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:35,800 Speaker 3: is run by my dear friend James Comer. 555 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:37,760 Speaker 1: That's right, a giant among men. 556 00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:40,720 Speaker 3: Yes, a man of many words, as you know, right, 557 00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 3: He's only interested in transparency, of course, you know. And 558 00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 3: now we find out there are fifty three pages missing 559 00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:49,440 Speaker 3: that the DOJ is holding back because it has stuff 560 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:51,480 Speaker 3: in there about Donald Trump. We find out that there 561 00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:55,760 Speaker 3: are apparently boxes of documents around the country that Epstein 562 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:58,160 Speaker 3: has hidden in all sorts of filing cabinets. We don't 563 00:31:58,160 --> 00:32:00,479 Speaker 3: know if the FBI has those are Now you know, 564 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:03,120 Speaker 3: the members myself included, went over to the DOJ to 565 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:07,080 Speaker 3: look at these unredacted documents, and they tracked what documents 566 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:07,840 Speaker 3: we were looking at. 567 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 1: Pam Bondi, Yeah. 568 00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:11,040 Speaker 3: You know, they spied on us so that they would know, 569 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:13,680 Speaker 3: you know, how how to deal with it in committee. 570 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:16,080 Speaker 3: You know, they have mismanaged this thing from the beginning, 571 00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:19,440 Speaker 3: even though this is what Dan Bongino and Cash Betel 572 00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:22,880 Speaker 3: why they wanted to come to the FBI, Right, Pam Bondy, 573 00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:25,400 Speaker 3: you know the here's the binder, the list is on 574 00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:27,920 Speaker 3: my desk. Then there's no lists. I mean, this was 575 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:30,600 Speaker 3: their thing. And you know, then the President launched the 576 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:33,240 Speaker 3: war on his own people, you know, saying that this 577 00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:36,360 Speaker 3: was a hoax, and you know it's a hostile act 578 00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:38,960 Speaker 3: if they released the files, and then of course after 579 00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:41,520 Speaker 3: they were forced to release it by all of Congress, 580 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:44,080 Speaker 3: everyone in the House except one person, and the entire Senate, 581 00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:46,640 Speaker 3: then all of a sudden, they were the most transparent 582 00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:49,840 Speaker 3: executive branch in American history. And so here we are 583 00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:52,680 Speaker 3: the drip, drip, drip. We continue to see it. You know, 584 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:55,120 Speaker 3: we're seeing other countries arrest people, by the way, right, 585 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:57,400 Speaker 3: we're seeing that happen. We're seeing in other countries people 586 00:32:57,400 --> 00:32:59,640 Speaker 3: lose their jobs. Here we haven't. We haven't seen that 587 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:01,840 Speaker 3: account ability. You know, I know, the stuff about Howard 588 00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:04,480 Speaker 3: Lutnik came out, You know, we learned that wasn't true. 589 00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:06,800 Speaker 3: What he said. He barely knew and barely had, you know, 590 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:08,760 Speaker 3: anything to do with him. You know, he went to 591 00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:11,080 Speaker 3: his house one time and he saw the massage table 592 00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:12,840 Speaker 3: and he said, I'm never going to be alone with 593 00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:15,000 Speaker 3: him again. And then we find out he went to 594 00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:17,840 Speaker 3: Epstein Island with his entire family and had business ties 595 00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:20,360 Speaker 3: with him. Apparently, you know, Cash Pttel told us Trump's 596 00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:23,480 Speaker 3: name barely in there, less than one hundred, right, and 597 00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:25,080 Speaker 3: then we find out it's in there like thirty eight 598 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:29,680 Speaker 3: thousand times. Okay, you know, Cashpttel under oath says that 599 00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:33,600 Speaker 3: the only person who trafficked girls was Epstein, only to himself, 600 00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 3: nobody else. Then we get the documents, we find out 601 00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:39,000 Speaker 3: there's co conspirators. We find obviously that he trafficked it 602 00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 3: to other people, and we find out he had a 603 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 3: whole ring of people who were recruiting these girls, grooming them, 604 00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:47,080 Speaker 3: and where they were shipping him these girls from out 605 00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:49,240 Speaker 3: of the country. Just totally disgusting behavior. 606 00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 1: When you went to the DOJ, were you able to 607 00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:57,800 Speaker 1: see things unredacted or were things still stuck with reactions. 608 00:33:58,040 --> 00:33:59,680 Speaker 3: There's a bunch of stuff that's unredacted, so we were 609 00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 3: able to see that, But there are tremendous amount of documents. 610 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:04,360 Speaker 3: In fact, I would say the majority of the documents 611 00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:07,800 Speaker 3: were still redacted, and they were sent into this electronic 612 00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:10,920 Speaker 3: system all redacted. They were sent to us redacted. So 613 00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:12,120 Speaker 3: when we look at them and we pump from the 614 00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:14,960 Speaker 3: redacted that I can't unredacted because they were scanned in 615 00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:17,799 Speaker 3: as redacted. We don't know what those documents are. We 616 00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:20,040 Speaker 3: have suspicions that some of those are the FBI. 617 00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:22,520 Speaker 1: Memos that were not TEO twos, Right. 618 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:24,520 Speaker 3: Oh twos, that's exactly right. In fact, we have none 619 00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:26,680 Speaker 3: almost none of those. Almost all the three O two's 620 00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:29,520 Speaker 3: are still redacted. We think obviously that's where there's a 621 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:32,959 Speaker 3: lot more evidence on how far and wide this goes. 622 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:35,600 Speaker 3: And clearly now that we're seeing stuff about the president 623 00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:39,040 Speaker 3: that was taken out of the documents, hard to say 624 00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:40,560 Speaker 3: now that there's not a cover up going on. 625 00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:43,120 Speaker 1: I want you to talk about these. So when you 626 00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:46,040 Speaker 1: go to the DOJ to look at the documents, what 627 00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:51,160 Speaker 1: like the law is written in such a way that 628 00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:55,240 Speaker 1: it is Pambondi or whoever at the DOJ is supposed 629 00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:58,319 Speaker 1: to explain the reactions. So what happens when you go 630 00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:01,080 Speaker 1: to the DOJ and you say, like where? 631 00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:04,760 Speaker 3: Like sure? So, first of all, so you walk into 632 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:08,720 Speaker 3: this building, which is more heavily guarded than the Capitol. Okay, 633 00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:11,560 Speaker 3: you eventually get in. They first allowed us to bring 634 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:14,240 Speaker 3: a staff member. Okay. Then they said no more staff. 635 00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:16,040 Speaker 3: You can't bring a staff member. So we go in 636 00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:17,680 Speaker 3: by ourselves. We go all the way up to the 637 00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:20,719 Speaker 3: tenth floor. Okay. On the tenth floor is nobody. There 638 00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:23,800 Speaker 3: is nobody working on this floor. Everyone I guess is 639 00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:27,040 Speaker 3: either it was fired or they're working mobile, but there's 640 00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:29,640 Speaker 3: nobody there. They bring you into a room the three 641 00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:31,360 Speaker 3: or four people that are working the files. There are 642 00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:33,960 Speaker 3: four computers set up okay on a system that you've 643 00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:36,879 Speaker 3: never used before. There's a twenty five page manual next 644 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:39,719 Speaker 3: to you, okay on how to use the system. Even 645 00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:41,680 Speaker 3: though you only have forty five minutes to go through 646 00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:44,360 Speaker 3: the documents, you have to disregard to the manual and 647 00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:46,319 Speaker 3: you have to learn in real time on how to 648 00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:49,600 Speaker 3: go through the system. The people there can't answer any 649 00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:52,920 Speaker 3: questions on why it was redacted, not because they can't 650 00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:56,960 Speaker 3: because they don't know. They are strictly technical people on 651 00:35:57,040 --> 00:35:58,680 Speaker 3: the system. If you want to know how to search 652 00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:01,480 Speaker 3: for something, you accidentally logged out, they'll log you back in. 653 00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:04,760 Speaker 3: By the way, every member has their own special login. 654 00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:06,759 Speaker 3: That's how they're tracking us. That's how I knew I 655 00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:08,880 Speaker 3: was being tracked before it was even I'm like, why 656 00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:10,400 Speaker 3: do I have my own login? Why do I have 657 00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:12,440 Speaker 3: my own password? What's the point of that? And so 658 00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:15,800 Speaker 3: it's a very cumbersome system. It's just a huge data 659 00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:18,000 Speaker 3: dump into this thing. You don't have enough time in 660 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:20,719 Speaker 3: the world just to start opening things. You have to 661 00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:23,560 Speaker 3: be searching. So you have to have an EFTA number 662 00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:26,839 Speaker 3: from a document that was made public that was redacted, 663 00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:30,480 Speaker 3: and then you can go search for the unredacted version 664 00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:31,560 Speaker 3: of that document. 665 00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 1: Wild Now, I'd love it if you would talk us 666 00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:38,879 Speaker 1: through Is there some recourse now? Because the administration has 667 00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:40,720 Speaker 1: technically broken this law. 668 00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:43,959 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, like multiple times. First of all, they didn't 669 00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:47,000 Speaker 3: give us the documents on time. Then they redacted stuff 670 00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:49,920 Speaker 3: they shouldn't have redacted. They unredacted names of victims that 671 00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 3: were supposed to be redacted, They redacted co conspirators. Okay, 672 00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:56,200 Speaker 3: I mean so yeah, No, there's all sorts of things 673 00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:59,200 Speaker 3: that they've broken in the law. Although, because you know 674 00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:01,880 Speaker 3: this administration and they're so great to work with, they 675 00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:04,279 Speaker 3: then if you saw it, they released the name of 676 00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:06,080 Speaker 3: new people that are in the Epstein files, and they 677 00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:07,920 Speaker 3: put a bunch of people on the Judiciary Committee in 678 00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:10,600 Speaker 3: the files. Because now if there's like an email, you 679 00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:12,520 Speaker 3: know because you went and research that your name is 680 00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:14,600 Speaker 3: now in the file. So I'm apparently in the files. 681 00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:17,480 Speaker 3: So we're like, all the Democratic members of the Judiciary 682 00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:18,720 Speaker 3: Committee are now in the files. 683 00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:21,440 Speaker 1: Is there anything you can do at this moment? Like 684 00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:24,640 Speaker 1: can you hold these people in contempt? Is there like, 685 00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:28,840 Speaker 1: is there any protocol for like a lawless administration like this? 686 00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:31,200 Speaker 3: Or Now, well, I think you're gonna continue to se 687 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:34,440 Speaker 3: information come out slowly, right, and then we're going to 688 00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:36,920 Speaker 3: continue to follow that. So we're gonna ask questions, we're 689 00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:39,919 Speaker 3: gonna have hearings. But Maley, obviously the real stuff's gonna 690 00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:41,880 Speaker 3: happen in January of next year. We can win the 691 00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:43,920 Speaker 3: win midterms of November, and how came Jeffries gets the 692 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:45,000 Speaker 3: gavel mid January. 693 00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:47,879 Speaker 4: We're going to immediately. 694 00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:50,440 Speaker 3: Come out of the gate with these investigations, the subpoenas 695 00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:54,120 Speaker 3: are going to be written. Okay, on November tenth, all 696 00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:55,920 Speaker 3: of this stuff is going to be written and will 697 00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:58,000 Speaker 3: immediately be filed in the middle of January when I 698 00:37:58,200 --> 00:38:00,360 Speaker 3: as soon as I came holds that gavel up stuff 699 00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:02,040 Speaker 3: goes out the door, and it's gonna be all sorts 700 00:38:02,080 --> 00:38:05,520 Speaker 3: of investigations. Clearly, it's gonna be Epstein. Clearly, it's gonna 701 00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:08,439 Speaker 3: be the Katari plane, It's gonna be the crypto money, right, 702 00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:11,360 Speaker 3: It's gonna be the watches. Why is Donald Trump selling watches? 703 00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:14,120 Speaker 3: You don't have a ten thousand dollars Trump watch mom. 704 00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:17,160 Speaker 1: Now yet I'm waiting for a gift from the admin. 705 00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:20,320 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, start with the Trump Bible and then upgrade 706 00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:20,800 Speaker 3: to the watch. 707 00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:25,960 Speaker 1: We've seen some Maga women do incredible things. I want 708 00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:29,080 Speaker 1: to talk about Lauren Bobert, who ultimately sort of more 709 00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:32,480 Speaker 1: Christian than Mike Johnson saying. 710 00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:35,040 Speaker 3: That, wa wait, are you really gonna ask me, Jared 711 00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:37,399 Speaker 3: moscoits to talk about Lauren Bobert's Christianity? Is that really? 712 00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:38,399 Speaker 1: I am? 713 00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:43,040 Speaker 3: We're just appreciate about Christ. This is gonna go over 714 00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:44,239 Speaker 3: great with the wife. Let's go ahead. 715 00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:47,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I just want to talk about like it 716 00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:50,880 Speaker 1: does seem like there are maga women in the House 717 00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:53,720 Speaker 1: of Representatives who are standing up for other women. 718 00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:57,400 Speaker 3: Well, here's what I would say. I would say Lauren Bobert, 719 00:38:57,600 --> 00:39:01,759 Speaker 3: Nancy Mace, Marjorie Taylor, Green, Anna, Pauline a Luna. You 720 00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:04,719 Speaker 3: have seen the four of them now on multiple occasions. 721 00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:07,520 Speaker 3: When it's come to colleagues that are a colleagues of 722 00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:10,760 Speaker 3: mine that are involved in sexual harassment or sexual assault, 723 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:14,160 Speaker 3: they've gone after their own Republican colleagues on that. And 724 00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:17,439 Speaker 3: when it's come to the Epstein victims, they have been 725 00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:21,040 Speaker 3: opposite Trump and the administration when it's come to the victims. 726 00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:23,439 Speaker 3: And so they've been doing that as a block. Even 727 00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:26,520 Speaker 3: when the administration, by the way, brought them into the 728 00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:29,760 Speaker 3: Situation Room in the White House, you know the place 729 00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 3: you know that you know we've launched wars from and 730 00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:34,399 Speaker 3: the President goes for like national security briefings. They brought 731 00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:37,440 Speaker 3: these women members of Congress to the Situation Room to 732 00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:40,120 Speaker 3: scare them. First tried to buy them off with appropriations 733 00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:43,680 Speaker 3: and projects, and then threatened primaries against them to pull 734 00:39:43,719 --> 00:39:47,759 Speaker 3: their name off of the Massy Discharge petition. And they 735 00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:49,600 Speaker 3: held strong and told the White House they weren't going 736 00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:50,759 Speaker 3: to do that, and that's how we were able to 737 00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:52,040 Speaker 3: get to the two eighteen. We don't get to the 738 00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:53,520 Speaker 3: two eighteen without those women. 739 00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:55,520 Speaker 1: I've been really impressed by that. 740 00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:57,400 Speaker 3: I mean, if you like Lauren so much, you should 741 00:39:57,400 --> 00:39:58,160 Speaker 3: go to a play with her. 742 00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:07,279 Speaker 1: Anyway, Moving on, hilarious, hilarious, Sorry, let's talk about what 743 00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:10,239 Speaker 1: it looks like right now. So Republicans have a one 744 00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:13,600 Speaker 1: vote majority in the House. We're in a sort of 745 00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:17,120 Speaker 1: partial government shutdown at this very moment. Do you think 746 00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:20,480 Speaker 1: there's a world in which this appropriation is dhs? I mean, 747 00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:23,160 Speaker 1: is there negotiation happening? And what does it look like? 748 00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:27,279 Speaker 3: There's no negotiation happening neither side obviously rightfully so on 749 00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:30,080 Speaker 3: our side, we're not going to give in on a 750 00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:32,040 Speaker 3: lot of these changes we want to see. By the way, 751 00:40:32,120 --> 00:40:34,120 Speaker 3: not only do I want policy changes, Molly, I want 752 00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:36,520 Speaker 3: Christy Noman to be fired. The idea that we're going 753 00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:39,439 Speaker 3: to agree to policy changes and expect Christy Nome Okay 754 00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:41,520 Speaker 3: to implement this makes absolutely no sense to me. So 755 00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:44,400 Speaker 3: she needs to go. She's the absolute weakest link to 756 00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:47,160 Speaker 3: the president's administration. If this was the show Apprentice, he 757 00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:49,560 Speaker 3: would have fired her long ago. I mean she took 758 00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:54,160 Speaker 3: his immigration issue, okay, which to help get him elected. 759 00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:57,480 Speaker 3: In August, he had a sixty percent approval rating on immigration. 760 00:40:57,760 --> 00:41:00,960 Speaker 3: It's now thirty nine percent. That's it's rarely because of 761 00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:04,839 Speaker 3: how Christinome has executed these immigration policies, what she's done 762 00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:07,840 Speaker 3: with Ice, the fact that American people being shot in 763 00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:11,280 Speaker 3: the streets of America, masked men just going around barging 764 00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:14,480 Speaker 3: into people's houses without warrants. Okay, this is all on 765 00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:17,799 Speaker 3: her and she should have already been fired, you know. 766 00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:19,920 Speaker 3: So you know, and then obviously as far as you 767 00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:21,600 Speaker 3: know where we're at. You know, look, I feel terrible 768 00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:24,399 Speaker 3: for the people who work at Homeland, whether they're in 769 00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:28,839 Speaker 3: FEMA or TSA or the Coastguard. I feel terrible for them. 770 00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:30,400 Speaker 3: They're caught in the middle of this. It's why I 771 00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:33,160 Speaker 3: support legislation that they should get paid while this is 772 00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:36,000 Speaker 3: going on. I support legislation at the FEMA emergency aid 773 00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:38,439 Speaker 3: should still go out while this is going on. They're 774 00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:40,440 Speaker 3: not willing to negotiate on any of this, Molly, So 775 00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:42,760 Speaker 3: right now it's going to stay partially shut down, and instead, 776 00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:44,440 Speaker 3: you know what they're gonna do. They're gonna try to 777 00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:47,759 Speaker 3: play games, okay, and they're gonna be like, oh, there'll 778 00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:50,600 Speaker 3: be no fast tsa line at the airport. They're gonna 779 00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:52,879 Speaker 3: try to make people's lives miserable, not because they can't 780 00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:54,400 Speaker 3: pay for it, because they're just going to do it 781 00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:57,040 Speaker 3: on purpose to try to put pressure on Congress to 782 00:41:57,080 --> 00:42:00,120 Speaker 3: make a deal. We sometimes because the security reason and 783 00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:02,640 Speaker 3: have to get escorts. Well, they've suspended all the escorts, 784 00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:05,680 Speaker 3: you know, exposing members of Congress to security risks. They 785 00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:08,000 Speaker 3: try to put pressure on us. That's not going to work. Okay, 786 00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:10,200 Speaker 3: none of this is going to work. The American people 787 00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:12,440 Speaker 3: watched this with their own eyes on TV. 788 00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:16,760 Speaker 1: ICE has billions of dollars, hundreds of billions. 789 00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:19,399 Speaker 3: They got one hundred and seventy billion dollars in the big, 790 00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:21,400 Speaker 3: beautiful bullshit of a bill. Yeah. 791 00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:24,520 Speaker 1: So is there any world in which that money goes 792 00:42:24,760 --> 00:42:28,319 Speaker 1: to Homeland while this negotiation is happening. I mean, that's 793 00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:29,239 Speaker 1: like the interest. 794 00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:31,319 Speaker 3: Well, look, I don't know what Russ vought over at 795 00:42:31,320 --> 00:42:33,680 Speaker 3: Omb is cooking up over there. You know, he did 796 00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:35,600 Speaker 3: cook up Project twenty twenty five, which, of course the 797 00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:37,719 Speaker 3: presidence that he heard nothing about and then made the 798 00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:39,720 Speaker 3: author of the head of the O and B. Don't worry. 799 00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:41,960 Speaker 3: We haven't forgotten. But obviously, look, they're trying to move 800 00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:44,919 Speaker 3: money around, they're trying to do stuff, but they they 801 00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:47,360 Speaker 3: want to get this reopen, right, there are things that 802 00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:50,680 Speaker 3: are constraining their efforts. This is how we know. If 803 00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:53,040 Speaker 3: they could do whatever they wanted with ICE, even with 804 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:55,879 Speaker 3: all that money, they would just say leave it closed, right, 805 00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:57,239 Speaker 3: leave it closed, and they would still do it. But 806 00:42:57,239 --> 00:42:59,480 Speaker 3: they're not. They're not. They're trying to get it open. 807 00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:01,080 Speaker 3: And look, they're going to have to move out of 808 00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:03,440 Speaker 3: their corner. I mean, the idea that masks people are 809 00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:05,320 Speaker 3: going to be allowed to roam the streets. I wouldn't 810 00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:07,440 Speaker 3: vote for something that allows that to still happen as 811 00:43:07,680 --> 00:43:10,640 Speaker 3: one of the most Unamerican things ever. And look, they 812 00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:12,920 Speaker 3: are criminals and there are gang members in this country. 813 00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:14,720 Speaker 3: They should be rounded up and they should be deported. 814 00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:17,439 Speaker 3: American people voted for that. I support that, but that's 815 00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:19,359 Speaker 3: not what this is. But that's not what they're doing. 816 00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:21,759 Speaker 3: And we have police officers that go into tough neighborhoods 817 00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:24,040 Speaker 3: every single solitary day in this country. They don't get 818 00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:27,720 Speaker 3: to put masks on their face neither should this division 819 00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:30,640 Speaker 3: of law enforcement. As my Republicans friends like to say, 820 00:43:30,680 --> 00:43:31,720 Speaker 3: there should be no masks. 821 00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:36,800 Speaker 1: Republicans have made some big bets on redistricting. I'm seeing 822 00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:40,480 Speaker 1: some polls that show that they they may have tipped 823 00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:43,799 Speaker 1: themselves into a dummy mander. Do you think that's right? 824 00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:47,399 Speaker 1: And looking at Florida, which is a state that has 825 00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:51,200 Speaker 1: seemed so red for so long, and then now you 826 00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:55,400 Speaker 1: have a Democratic mayor in Miami and it looks like 827 00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:59,840 Speaker 1: that Ice may have really alienated Latino voters. Are you hopeful, 828 00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:02,840 Speaker 1: do you see anything or do you think it's just 829 00:44:03,680 --> 00:44:04,720 Speaker 1: too optimistic? 830 00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:07,120 Speaker 3: Well, look, I think in some areas, right, because they 831 00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:09,560 Speaker 3: use old numbers and the ground is shifted beneath them, right, 832 00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:11,279 Speaker 3: I think there'll be some areas that they thought they 833 00:44:11,280 --> 00:44:13,200 Speaker 3: would pick up seats that they're then they're now going 834 00:44:13,239 --> 00:44:15,640 Speaker 3: to lose. And then of course they for forced democratic 835 00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:17,480 Speaker 3: states to have to play the game. It's not a 836 00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:19,920 Speaker 3: game we wanted to play. But if you don't play, 837 00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:22,680 Speaker 3: you lose. So we had to play, and we played, 838 00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:24,959 Speaker 3: and we played hard. And look, in some instances we've 839 00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:28,880 Speaker 3: either made sure that their efforts have been neutralized or 840 00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:31,239 Speaker 3: maybe even we can gain a seat or two. Can 841 00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:32,759 Speaker 3: I be honest, I don't know if any of this 842 00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:34,680 Speaker 3: is gonna matter, because I think you're going to see 843 00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:37,680 Speaker 3: a huge victory in November anyway. I don't think we're 844 00:44:37,680 --> 00:44:39,840 Speaker 3: gonna win the House by one or two or three seats. 845 00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:41,560 Speaker 3: I think we're gonna win the House in a much 846 00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:44,640 Speaker 3: larger number. We're a plus six on the generic ballot. 847 00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:47,200 Speaker 3: I think Democrats are in a good spot. The President 848 00:44:47,320 --> 00:44:50,839 Speaker 3: is upside down on his two strongest issues, immigration and 849 00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:53,160 Speaker 3: the economy. Those are the two things that propelled him 850 00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:55,040 Speaker 3: into office, the two things he ran on, and he's 851 00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:57,000 Speaker 3: upside down on both of those issues as far as 852 00:44:57,040 --> 00:45:00,200 Speaker 3: Florida's concerned. Obviously, Look, the President lied about t PS 853 00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:02,319 Speaker 3: for Venezuelan's. He told them that they were fine, then 854 00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:04,960 Speaker 3: he got rid of TPS. He lied about TPS for Haitians. 855 00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:06,400 Speaker 3: He told them they when we fine, then he got 856 00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:09,160 Speaker 3: rid of TPS. And yeah, the Cuban community is watching 857 00:45:09,200 --> 00:45:12,040 Speaker 3: all of this, thinking to themselves, this is ridiculous. This 858 00:45:12,160 --> 00:45:14,759 Speaker 3: is part of what they escape from Cuba and other 859 00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:17,759 Speaker 3: areas in Latin Americas. The Latin American community watches some 860 00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:19,799 Speaker 3: of this, and so yes, a we now have a 861 00:45:19,840 --> 00:45:22,640 Speaker 3: democratic mayor in Miami, and I think you're going to 862 00:45:22,680 --> 00:45:25,520 Speaker 3: see major changes in the voting block in both the 863 00:45:25,520 --> 00:45:29,000 Speaker 3: Puerto Rican community and in which is in like Orlando, 864 00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:32,200 Speaker 3: Orange County area, and in the Cuban community in Dade County. 865 00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:34,920 Speaker 3: As far as Florida's concerned, Look, Florida is the Maga 866 00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:37,799 Speaker 3: capital of the world. Okay, you know that's where we 867 00:45:37,840 --> 00:45:40,440 Speaker 3: have all the boat parades. If you've never been, Molly, 868 00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:42,959 Speaker 3: I highly recommend you go to one. Oh yeah, yeah, 869 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:44,160 Speaker 3: you know, but get some son. 870 00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:46,919 Speaker 1: Yeah, oh son, I love son son. 871 00:45:47,040 --> 00:45:49,400 Speaker 3: Yeah. I could see that. But DeSantis and Trump are 872 00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:51,160 Speaker 3: going to try to do something there. I think they're 873 00:45:51,160 --> 00:45:53,719 Speaker 3: really waiting to see what happens with the Voting Rights 874 00:45:53,719 --> 00:45:56,319 Speaker 3: Act of the Supreme Court. They want to get these 875 00:45:56,320 --> 00:45:59,600 Speaker 3: black voting districts struck down. So really, if the Supreme 876 00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:01,960 Speaker 3: Court does that, then there are a lot of seats 877 00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:04,799 Speaker 3: around the country that could get redrawn. The question is 878 00:46:04,840 --> 00:46:06,839 Speaker 3: really going to be about timing if the Supreme Court 879 00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:10,680 Speaker 3: does historically what they do voting rights cases. Voting cases 880 00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:12,760 Speaker 3: things that can affect an election, are usually the last 881 00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:15,360 Speaker 3: decision of the session, so that would be in June. 882 00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:16,920 Speaker 3: So if that happens, you're not gonna be able to 883 00:46:16,960 --> 00:46:19,719 Speaker 3: do anything with the twenty six election. But Republicans in 884 00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:23,279 Speaker 3: Florida set a special session to deal with redistricting at 885 00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:25,680 Speaker 3: the end of April, so there's some belief that maybe 886 00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:28,319 Speaker 3: they could get that decision earlier. If they do get 887 00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:30,960 Speaker 3: that decision earlier, they will try to redraw three four 888 00:46:31,000 --> 00:46:32,839 Speaker 3: of us out of our seats in Florida. I think 889 00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:35,120 Speaker 3: that's what the governor has said, even though, by the way, 890 00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:37,480 Speaker 3: we have a constitutional amendment that the voters voted for 891 00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:40,600 Speaker 3: in Florida that forbids that exact sort of behavior. So 892 00:46:40,640 --> 00:46:42,080 Speaker 3: whatever they do, it's going to go to the state 893 00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:43,840 Speaker 3: Supreme Court, and we want to see how that works. 894 00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:47,680 Speaker 1: Jesus Congressman, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you. 895 00:46:50,080 --> 00:46:54,719 Speaker 1: No no moment, jesse Caannon. 896 00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:57,440 Speaker 2: Biy let me set the stage for you. So we 897 00:46:57,520 --> 00:47:01,360 Speaker 2: saw blockbuster reporting in The New York occur, previous reporting 898 00:47:01,600 --> 00:47:05,040 Speaker 2: from BBC that Elon Musk. When you're on his X 899 00:47:05,200 --> 00:47:08,400 Speaker 2: for You page, what you see if you are interacting 900 00:47:08,440 --> 00:47:11,200 Speaker 2: with far leftist content is a ton of right wing 901 00:47:11,239 --> 00:47:13,560 Speaker 2: content too. But if you're a right winger, you see 902 00:47:13,560 --> 00:47:17,280 Speaker 2: barely any leftist content. So to get to that Byared 903 00:47:17,360 --> 00:47:20,319 Speaker 2: has a really really great piece of journalism that the 904 00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:22,680 Speaker 2: White House is running. One of the main accounts that 905 00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:25,760 Speaker 2: is boosted by this an account that I, as a 906 00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:28,560 Speaker 2: leftist get all the time Johnny Maga. 907 00:47:28,920 --> 00:47:33,360 Speaker 1: Yes, Johnny Maga, by the way, I thought Johnny Maga, 908 00:47:33,440 --> 00:47:36,520 Speaker 1: who I have blocked. Of course, I was sure Johnny 909 00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:41,719 Speaker 1: Maga was just like some guy in India, you know, 910 00:47:41,880 --> 00:47:45,719 Speaker 1: some kind of bought farm in another country. But it 911 00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:49,680 Speaker 1: turns out that actually it's run by a White House staffer. 912 00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:53,000 Speaker 1: And that's important because and this is by the way, 913 00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:56,720 Speaker 1: good reporting on the part of Wired, is that Johnny 914 00:47:56,719 --> 00:48:00,560 Speaker 1: Maga is run by a White House staffer. And this 915 00:48:00,960 --> 00:48:05,120 Speaker 1: is the account that tweeted out the video depicting Barack 916 00:48:05,239 --> 00:48:10,400 Speaker 1: and Michelle Obama's apes. That means that the Trump white 917 00:48:10,400 --> 00:48:15,440 Speaker 1: House is involved in you know, when Trump said he 918 00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:18,600 Speaker 1: didn't even watch it, it turns out his people made it. 919 00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:22,200 Speaker 1: And I think, like that's really important. We often like 920 00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:27,200 Speaker 1: let Trump kind of dismiss things, weasel out of them, 921 00:48:27,520 --> 00:48:29,920 Speaker 1: and this it's a really big deal. So you know, 922 00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:32,839 Speaker 1: it's just like what we saw with homeland security. It's 923 00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:38,400 Speaker 1: just really really bad and worrying, and it's also the 924 00:48:38,440 --> 00:48:42,680 Speaker 1: way in which Elon's X is trying to shape the narrative. 925 00:48:42,680 --> 00:48:44,600 Speaker 1: It's funny because it's like you just think about it. 926 00:48:45,080 --> 00:48:49,040 Speaker 1: Johnny Maga an account created in September twenty twenty one. 927 00:48:49,480 --> 00:48:55,440 Speaker 1: It was originally had a different handle, which referenced Wade's birth. 928 00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:59,240 Speaker 1: Here the guy who works in the Trump White House. 929 00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:01,880 Speaker 1: By the way, normal in white houses would be like 930 00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:04,480 Speaker 1: everyone who knew about this would get fired. 931 00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:08,440 Speaker 2: Yeah. This reminds me of when the White House Briefing 932 00:49:08,440 --> 00:49:11,040 Speaker 2: Grouper they had the inside plant who was also a 933 00:49:11,080 --> 00:49:13,480 Speaker 2: mail scorch. Because it's like the modern day version. 934 00:49:13,760 --> 00:49:18,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, but Garrett Wade, it is just yet another day 935 00:49:18,960 --> 00:49:19,279 Speaker 1: in the. 936 00:49:19,239 --> 00:49:22,640 Speaker 2: Trump woind astroturfing to pretend he has real support. 937 00:49:23,320 --> 00:49:27,680 Speaker 1: That's it for this episode of Fast Politics.
