And it is a big day. 0:00:19.640 --> 0:00:21.160 I think either way, it's a big day. 0:00:21.400 --> 0:00:24.480 But if we get this solved, it's a really big. 0:00:24.400 --> 0:00:26.520 Day because we're gonna save a lot of lives. Do 0:00:26.560 --> 0:00:28.960 you then decide, okay, we're gonna use mustard gas on civilians? 0:00:29.800 --> 0:00:32.960 The what Trump ordered Abbat to do in Texas is 0:00:33.040 --> 0:00:34.280 mustard gas on democracy. 0:00:34.360 --> 0:00:36.760 And the perception of this of the Biden presidency is 0:00:37.040 --> 0:00:39.680 just a weak and ineffective presidency. But the fact of 0:00:39.720 --> 0:00:42.240 the matter is his legacy is Donald Trump came back. 0:00:42.680 --> 0:00:48.760 Fradom is back in style, Welcome to the revolution. 0:00:49.000 --> 0:00:51.360 Coming to your. 0:00:53.560 --> 0:00:56.560 Going the way I gets and saying you a conscious sound. 0:00:59.120 --> 0:01:03.120 Sean Hennered Show more me, I'm the scenes, information on 0:01:03.280 --> 0:01:09.480 breaking news and more bold inspired solutions for America. All right, 0:01:09.520 --> 0:01:11.920 thanks Scott. You on an hour two. Sean Hannity Show, 0:01:12.000 --> 0:01:13.920 eight hundred and nine four one. Shawn is on number. 0:01:13.959 --> 0:01:16.360 If you want to be a part of the program. 0:01:16.480 --> 0:01:18.760 We have a lot of news that we're going to 0:01:18.800 --> 0:01:20.120 be breaking in the course of this show. 0:01:20.160 --> 0:01:20.520 Today. 0:01:21.200 --> 0:01:24.080 One We're going to update you on the auto pen 0:01:24.160 --> 0:01:28.600 issue and the Joe cognitive decline issue. We'll get to 0:01:28.720 --> 0:01:33.119 that in a second. John Solomon has some huge breaking news, 0:01:33.959 --> 0:01:37.479 pretty much smoking gun breaking news regarding James Comy. We'll 0:01:37.480 --> 0:01:41.880 get to that today. Also Senator Tom Cotton on what's 0:01:41.920 --> 0:01:46.679 going on in DC and Ukraine and Russia and Leo 0:01:46.760 --> 0:01:50.520 two point zero Turell the President going out following the 0:01:51.000 --> 0:01:54.480 on the Heels of the trip by Pete Hagsath, Stephen Miller, 0:01:54.560 --> 0:01:58.080 and JD. Vans yesterday in the streets of DC. We 0:01:58.120 --> 0:02:01.360 do have an update on that. The liberal media won't 0:02:01.400 --> 0:02:03.880 report too much on it. DC has had a murder 0:02:03.960 --> 0:02:08.359 free week in seventy seven more arrests in the federal 0:02:08.400 --> 0:02:11.760 takeover in the National Guard protecting the people in our 0:02:11.840 --> 0:02:18.399 nation's capital. It's unbelievably shocking to imagine that if all 0:02:18.480 --> 0:02:21.240 the capitals of every country in the world, we have 0:02:21.360 --> 0:02:25.160 the highest homicide rate per capita for one hundred thousand, 0:02:26.080 --> 0:02:30.600 by more than double, nearly triple the next highest country. 0:02:30.680 --> 0:02:34.600 And when we're talking about Baghdad and Nel Salvador and 0:02:35.400 --> 0:02:39.079 you know, Mexico City, I mean, you would think America's 0:02:39.120 --> 0:02:42.880 capital would be the safest not even close. So they're 0:02:42.880 --> 0:02:45.320 trying to restore law and order and safety and security 0:02:45.320 --> 0:02:49.600 for people there. This is getting fascinating and more fascinating 0:02:49.639 --> 0:02:53.840 by the day. One of President Biden's staunchest defenders in 0:02:53.880 --> 0:02:57.480 the last year of his presidency has been this guy, 0:02:57.760 --> 0:03:02.600 Ian Sam's, and James Comer is now saying after an 0:03:02.600 --> 0:03:07.320 interview that took place with mister Sam's today that he 0:03:07.520 --> 0:03:10.680 thinks that this might be the most informative interview in 0:03:10.720 --> 0:03:14.840 this probe so far. And Comer's taking the lead in 0:03:14.919 --> 0:03:18.120 terms of these closed door transcribed interviews, and today was 0:03:18.160 --> 0:03:21.720 Ian Sam's turn, who served as the top spokesperson on 0:03:21.800 --> 0:03:26.240 matters related to congressional investigations and other probes during the 0:03:26.280 --> 0:03:29.280 latter two years of the Biden administration, he said, quote 0:03:29.600 --> 0:03:34.600 that was probably the most informative transcribed interview splash deposition 0:03:34.760 --> 0:03:38.920 we have had thus far. Let me play Comer in 0:03:38.960 --> 0:03:41.160 his own words and what he has to say. Listen, 0:03:41.840 --> 0:03:43.480 I mean, I can't say this enough. 0:03:43.520 --> 0:03:45.120 I want to say this one more time, so everyone 0:03:45.160 --> 0:03:50.120 ever since Ian Sam's, who was the White House spokesperson 0:03:51.240 --> 0:03:55.680 for a significant amount of Joe Biden Simon's President, interacted 0:03:55.720 --> 0:04:01.760 with him two times, two times, so you know, we're 0:04:01.800 --> 0:04:07.120 going to continue to bring people in. And again, this person, 0:04:07.160 --> 0:04:10.760 Ian SAMs is the one that would would counter everything 0:04:11.760 --> 0:04:14.960 Robert Hurr or anytime anyone would suggest that Joe Biden 0:04:15.120 --> 0:04:16.920 wasn't mentally fit, he would say, no, he's at the 0:04:16.920 --> 0:04:18.800 top of his game. Every time he tweeted out and 0:04:18.800 --> 0:04:21.719 there several times he gave interviews on MSNBC. Every time 0:04:21.720 --> 0:04:24.480 I've interacted with the President, he was sharp, he asked 0:04:24.520 --> 0:04:29.559 great questions in there under oath. He interacted with President 0:04:29.600 --> 0:04:33.279 two times the entire time the entire time he worked 0:04:33.279 --> 0:04:35.280 in the White House. That's astonishing. 0:04:36.080 --> 0:04:39.480 It really is stunning, and it does bring into focus 0:04:40.040 --> 0:04:44.400 the level of cover up in terms of nobody really 0:04:44.480 --> 0:04:47.120 got to see Biden accept that very small group of 0:04:47.120 --> 0:04:49.720 people that I would argue, knew damn well that he 0:04:49.800 --> 0:04:53.320 was in a full, significant, serious cognitive decline. That raises 0:04:53.400 --> 0:04:56.520 the issue. As The New York Times had pointed out, Okay, 0:04:56.760 --> 0:05:01.200 Joe Biden set down criteria standards for communeations and pardons, 0:05:01.800 --> 0:05:03.520 but then they use the auto pen. But we don't 0:05:03.520 --> 0:05:06.120 know who authorized the use of the auto pen, and 0:05:06.600 --> 0:05:10.600 we don't believe that Joe Biden authorized every commutation and 0:05:11.120 --> 0:05:14.520 every pardon. Anyway, Mike Cowell's with US President of the 0:05:14.640 --> 0:05:19.800 Oversight Project, leading figure in uncovering the autopen scandal. He 0:05:19.920 --> 0:05:23.760 has more information on this as well, because the top 0:05:23.920 --> 0:05:27.400 Justice Department official warned the Biden administration that thousands of 0:05:27.480 --> 0:05:31.400 last minute pardons signed by Auto pen were legally flawed 0:05:31.839 --> 0:05:35.440 and went against President Biden's intentions of granting clemency to 0:05:35.560 --> 0:05:39.440 violent offenders who killed children and police officers. All right, 0:05:39.440 --> 0:05:41.880 what are we learning, Mike Cowell, welcome. 0:05:41.600 --> 0:05:44.840 Back, Hey, thanks for having me on. So it's a 0:05:44.960 --> 0:05:48.800 bombshell document. It's an email in black and white. So 0:05:48.839 --> 0:05:52.039 we got to take it back to January seventeenth, the 0:05:52.160 --> 0:05:54.880 final days of the Biden administration, and the White House 0:05:54.880 --> 0:06:00.280 announced was a record setting pardoning and commutation of non 0:06:00.400 --> 0:06:03.440 violent drug offenders. That's how they styled it. And there's 0:06:03.480 --> 0:06:07.000 a press release that you know says it from Biden, 0:06:07.040 --> 0:06:08.800 but as you know, we're hearing from me and Sam's 0:06:08.960 --> 0:06:11.320 who knows who wrote the press releaser, who it really 0:06:11.320 --> 0:06:13.920 came from, but bragging about the scale of what they did. 0:06:14.560 --> 0:06:18.240 So fast forward just one day on Saturday morning, the 0:06:18.279 --> 0:06:21.359 top lawyer at dj for all of this, Merrick Garland's 0:06:21.440 --> 0:06:26.280 right hand career official writes a highly unusual and emphatic 0:06:26.360 --> 0:06:30.000 email to the White House saying these are not legal. 0:06:30.240 --> 0:06:34.400 We cannot effectuate and execute these as it currently stands. 0:06:34.400 --> 0:06:37.080 I mean list out all the reasons. One of the 0:06:37.120 --> 0:06:40.240 biggest ones is on the face of these what's called 0:06:40.240 --> 0:06:43.880 a warrants, which is, you know, the documents that effectuates 0:06:44.120 --> 0:06:47.880 the commutation. It doesn't even describe what they need to do. 0:06:48.040 --> 0:06:49.680 And if they were to take it at its word, 0:06:49.760 --> 0:06:54.200 it necessarily would apply to guess what violent criminals, and 0:06:54.240 --> 0:06:57.120 it did and they were released from jail. I'm talking 0:06:57.160 --> 0:07:00.960 about people who killed cops, who killed children, who witnesses 0:07:01.040 --> 0:07:03.679 the worst of the worst. And so for the first 0:07:03.720 --> 0:07:07.760 time we have evidence of Biden officials in writing saying 0:07:07.839 --> 0:07:11.240 this autofense strategy is illegal and not working in its 0:07:11.240 --> 0:07:12.400 practice and implementation. 0:07:12.600 --> 0:07:15.080 All right, let's go through some of what you found here. 0:07:15.160 --> 0:07:19.760 Four specific points. The language offenses described to the Department 0:07:19.800 --> 0:07:23.080 of Justice in the warrant is highly problematic, and in 0:07:23.160 --> 0:07:27.120 order to resolve its meaning appropriately and consistent with the 0:07:27.160 --> 0:07:31.000 President's intent, we will need a statement or direction from 0:07:31.040 --> 0:07:34.280 the President on how to interpret the language. And let's 0:07:34.320 --> 0:07:36.880 go through the four possibilities that they lay out in 0:07:36.960 --> 0:07:41.040 this piece, starting with the commutation applying to all federal offenses, 0:07:41.040 --> 0:07:42.440 and explain why it's problematic. 0:07:42.440 --> 0:07:46.120 In your mind, it's problematic because the documents that effects you. 0:07:46.200 --> 0:07:50.320 It's a the warrant needs to actually describe the offenses 0:07:50.520 --> 0:07:54.120 and the people. Keep in mind how ahistorical this was, 0:07:54.200 --> 0:07:56.840 and that's what Biden was bragging about, just the scale 0:07:56.880 --> 0:08:00.200 of the whole thing. But for it to actually legally work, 0:08:00.520 --> 0:08:02.680 you have to name the people and the offenses that 0:08:02.720 --> 0:08:05.480 they committed, and the warrant did not do that. And 0:08:05.520 --> 0:08:08.880 so here you have dj saying, we can't interpret this 0:08:09.000 --> 0:08:11.280 with how you've done it, and to do it like 0:08:11.440 --> 0:08:15.560 and its logical kind of construction would apply to basically 0:08:15.680 --> 0:08:19.560 this wide universe of people that I don't think the 0:08:19.600 --> 0:08:22.240 president wants out. Who in their right mind would want 0:08:22.280 --> 0:08:25.400 these violent criminals and gang bangers out. They don't match 0:08:25.480 --> 0:08:28.880 the rhetoric of even the furthest left advocacy groups, And 0:08:28.920 --> 0:08:31.920 so that's what he's basically saying. And the other examples 0:08:31.920 --> 0:08:36.000 there are basically his best attempt from DJF. We're going 0:08:36.080 --> 0:08:39.120 to need to fix this it's badly broken. Now here 0:08:39.120 --> 0:08:41.760 are four ways to fix it. And those are the 0:08:41.800 --> 0:08:44.520 other examples that he walks through, but they're all revolve 0:08:44.600 --> 0:08:49.280 around one thing. Sean clarification from guests who the President 0:08:49.360 --> 0:08:53.200 of the United States, because that's what doing this needs 0:08:53.240 --> 0:08:56.040 to do. Part in the communications. It's a special power 0:08:56.440 --> 0:09:00.080 in our Constitution reserved to one person, one person alone, 0:09:00.200 --> 0:09:01.920 and that is the President of the United States. And 0:09:02.000 --> 0:09:06.240 so dear j is screaming basically, if you read this email, 0:09:06.679 --> 0:09:09.160 we need that one guy to tell us what he 0:09:09.240 --> 0:09:14.080 actually means, because this autopen strategy cannot hold up well. 0:09:14.240 --> 0:09:16.440 Remember when The New York Times wrote that he was 0:09:16.440 --> 0:09:21.760 setting down criteria and standards, and it heavily implied and 0:09:22.559 --> 0:09:25.960 pretty much outright said that he didn't approve each one himself. 0:09:26.320 --> 0:09:28.760 And we still to this day don't know who authorized 0:09:28.760 --> 0:09:31.440 the use of the autopen And then we have this 0:09:31.520 --> 0:09:35.120 whole issue of was Joe even cognitively aware enough and 0:09:35.200 --> 0:09:37.840 mentally strong enough to even make the decision. 0:09:37.800 --> 0:09:40.400 That's absolutely right, and so that New York Times article. 0:09:40.480 --> 0:09:43.440 Keep in mind, the oversight project in March went public 0:09:43.480 --> 0:09:45.880 with our Auto Offend investigation, and the New York Times 0:09:45.920 --> 0:09:49.160 covered it but they called it a conspiracy theory, Seana, 0:09:49.679 --> 0:09:53.880 and their reporters. That was their narrative on it. In March. Well, 0:09:53.960 --> 0:09:56.559 you passed forward a month ago. Enough damage had been 0:09:56.559 --> 0:09:59.440 done that finally the Biden camp decided they needed to 0:09:59.520 --> 0:10:02.640 do something. His legacy will be defined by the autopend 0:10:03.040 --> 0:10:05.160 and whether he likes it or not, that's where it's at. 0:10:05.160 --> 0:10:07.240 And so they went to the New York Times gave 0:10:07.280 --> 0:10:09.320 a ten minute interview in which The New York Times 0:10:09.360 --> 0:10:12.080 has not released the audio tape of the Biden interview, 0:10:12.120 --> 0:10:15.640 by the way, in which Biden, basically, if you're to 0:10:15.679 --> 0:10:20.120 believe the New York Times, made the limited disclosure of admitting, yeah, okay, 0:10:20.160 --> 0:10:22.720 I didn't do this stuff, but hey, I did enough. 0:10:23.000 --> 0:10:26.800 I said, broad categories, and his admission there is enough 0:10:26.800 --> 0:10:29.000 for all of these things to fall, because. 0:10:28.760 --> 0:10:31.440 As we just outlined, when you say fall, that would 0:10:31.480 --> 0:10:32.800 invalidate them. Correct. 0:10:33.480 --> 0:10:36.560 Correct, And then mayor of mind everyone President Trump already 0:10:36.679 --> 0:10:39.280 has he said it over and over again. He put 0:10:39.320 --> 0:10:42.040 it out true social in May that all these are 0:10:42.160 --> 0:10:44.800 null and void. And I mean, here's where things get 0:10:44.880 --> 0:10:47.960 really interesting, Sean. Some of the commutations, which for your 0:10:48.000 --> 0:10:49.839 viewers is a little different than a part, and it's 0:10:49.840 --> 0:10:53.360 a shortening of the sentence. Guess what, some of those 0:10:53.360 --> 0:10:57.600 people are still in jail, and so President Trump could 0:10:57.679 --> 0:11:00.760 refuse to release them. One of the guys, a crack 0:11:01.080 --> 0:11:04.480 cocaine kingpin, is being released today and he's got one 0:11:04.480 --> 0:11:07.559 of these no good part in commutations. And so this 0:11:07.679 --> 0:11:09.880 is a case in which we hope, and we've called 0:11:09.880 --> 0:11:12.560 on ag Bondi and others, let's get the ball moving 0:11:12.600 --> 0:11:14.520 and start knocking some of these out. And the easiest 0:11:14.559 --> 0:11:15.959 way to do it, and we'll get to ship and 0:11:16.000 --> 0:11:18.600 everyone else later, is to do no more harm and 0:11:18.640 --> 0:11:20.920 to release none of these people that are still in 0:11:21.000 --> 0:11:23.199 jail back into the street. And frankly, I'd like to 0:11:23.200 --> 0:11:25.880 see those that have already been released re arrested and 0:11:25.880 --> 0:11:28.360 put back in prison because they don't belong on our streets. 0:11:28.800 --> 0:11:31.920 Quick break more with Mike Howell. He's the president of 0:11:31.920 --> 0:11:35.560 the Oversight Project, leading figure in uncovering the autopen scandal. 0:11:36.160 --> 0:11:39.960 And what a hearing today with Ian Sam's who admitted 0:11:40.000 --> 0:11:42.720 he only talked to Biden saw Biden two times. And 0:11:42.760 --> 0:11:46.240 this guy has been saying it's a conspiracy theory. Anybody 0:11:46.320 --> 0:11:50.840 that says that Joe is a cognitive mess. Also, new 0:11:50.880 --> 0:11:56.680 details on how Biden's own Justice Department absolutely Warren Biden 0:11:56.760 --> 0:12:01.560 that the process they were used for these last minute 0:12:01.640 --> 0:12:04.920 pardons were not going to hold muster that they weren't legal. 0:12:05.559 --> 0:12:07.880 We'll break all that down and more as we continue. 0:12:07.960 --> 0:12:10.360 All right, we continue, Mike Howllin's with US president of 0:12:10.360 --> 0:12:14.600 the Oversight Project. We're now discovering that the number two 0:12:14.640 --> 0:12:17.880 of the doj of Joe Biden warning these last minute 0:12:17.920 --> 0:12:20.920 pardons and commutations were not going to hold up legally, 0:12:21.440 --> 0:12:24.920 especially by the President not making this election himself and 0:12:24.920 --> 0:12:29.520 the autopen issue coming into real focus now and all 0:12:29.559 --> 0:12:31.839 of them will be invalidated in my view over time. 0:12:32.080 --> 0:12:34.400 Let me put a little more emphasis on items three 0:12:34.520 --> 0:12:37.040 and four in the letter that you're describing. Again, this 0:12:37.240 --> 0:12:41.040 is Merrick Garland's number two is right hand man, if 0:12:41.080 --> 0:12:45.040 you will point three. Because no offensive offenses have been 0:12:45.080 --> 0:12:49.160 described to the department from the president, the commutations do 0:12:49.280 --> 0:12:53.679 not take effect. Now, this is Biden's Justice Department, just 0:12:53.720 --> 0:12:57.760 in the final hours of his administration. It goes on 0:12:58.040 --> 0:13:01.600 in essence, describing offenses to the department is a conditioned 0:13:01.600 --> 0:13:06.280 precedent to the commutations being effective and without a description, 0:13:06.440 --> 0:13:09.440 they do not take effect. I have no idea what 0:13:09.520 --> 0:13:13.000 interpretation the incoming administration will give to the warrant, but 0:13:13.160 --> 0:13:17.520 they may find the interpretation attractive as it gives effect 0:13:17.600 --> 0:13:20.400 to the language but does not go beyond the four 0:13:21.440 --> 0:13:24.920 corners of the warrant. Last point, there is yet to 0:13:25.040 --> 0:13:28.880 come clear direction from the President giving meaning to the 0:13:29.000 --> 0:13:33.600 language for the offenses described to the DOJ. Ideally, this 0:13:33.640 --> 0:13:37.840 would be a list of each inmate listing the offenses 0:13:37.880 --> 0:13:41.000 that are covered by the commutation. By far, this is 0:13:41.040 --> 0:13:45.200 the clearest and least problematic alternative. Given the above, I 0:13:45.240 --> 0:13:48.360 think the best that we receive is a statement of 0:13:48.480 --> 0:13:50.920 direction from the President as to the meaning of the 0:13:50.960 --> 0:13:53.800 warrant language. This will then allow us to give the 0:13:53.840 --> 0:13:57.480 full effect of the commutation warrant in the manner intended 0:13:57.520 --> 0:14:01.079 by the President. They didn't do any of that. I mean, 0:14:01.120 --> 0:14:04.040 this is their top lawyer, one of this number two 0:14:04.120 --> 0:14:07.240 lawyer of justice, saying, guys, wake up, this ain't going 0:14:07.280 --> 0:14:08.000 to take effect. 0:14:09.360 --> 0:14:12.880 That's exactly right. He's begging for direction. He's saying, help 0:14:12.920 --> 0:14:15.800 me clean up your mess, give me something that we 0:14:15.840 --> 0:14:19.280 can use to actually put these into motion, because they 0:14:19.360 --> 0:14:22.400 just are not a vehicle to do whatever the autopen 0:14:22.520 --> 0:14:25.240 thought they would achieve. And so that's what that email 0:14:25.760 --> 0:14:29.080 is absolutely screaming. And if you read between the lines, 0:14:29.480 --> 0:14:31.920 the top lawyer keeps saying, I need to hear from 0:14:32.000 --> 0:14:36.000 the president. He's not putting in writing. You know, hey, 0:14:36.320 --> 0:14:37.800 I'm not going to talk to an autopen or as 0:14:37.840 --> 0:14:40.320 staffer about this. And I think that's the bogus reason. 0:14:40.680 --> 0:14:43.880 But implicit in everything he's saying is we need this 0:14:43.920 --> 0:14:46.000 from the top and he's not getting it. 0:14:46.640 --> 0:14:49.440 Wow, pretty amazing story. How do you think this ends? 0:14:49.480 --> 0:14:53.000 Does this go to the courts? Does the Trump administration 0:14:53.160 --> 0:14:55.560 and validate it and then it will be challenged in 0:14:55.600 --> 0:14:56.600 the courts? What do you think? 0:14:57.600 --> 0:15:01.040 So I'll surta saying and I, oh, I'm beating a 0:15:01.040 --> 0:15:03.720 dead horse on this. But President Trump has already invalidated it. 0:15:03.840 --> 0:15:07.320 He said so multiple times. He's the chief executive, he's 0:15:07.480 --> 0:15:10.240 put it in writing, he's issued an executive order, he's 0:15:10.240 --> 0:15:13.080 open the White House Counsel investigation, he's called them Nolan Voyd. 0:15:13.360 --> 0:15:15.640 So it's about time for the government to start getting 0:15:15.640 --> 0:15:17.760 in line with what the president says and treating these 0:15:17.800 --> 0:15:20.800 things as Nolan Boyd. And there's several things that can 0:15:20.920 --> 0:15:23.480 do to start that process. The first is not releasing 0:15:23.520 --> 0:15:25.880 these guys from jail, and I think that's the easy 0:15:25.880 --> 0:15:29.080 claer cut legal case because you have Biden's DJ agreeing. 0:15:29.440 --> 0:15:31.960 The second, I think more controversial one that will end 0:15:32.000 --> 0:15:35.760 up in the Supreme Court, is charging people like Shif Milly, 0:15:35.840 --> 0:15:39.600 the January sixth Committee, etc. All those people who received 0:15:39.680 --> 0:15:42.840 the funky pardons. And that's what I think Comber's team 0:15:42.920 --> 0:15:45.280 is getting at, and Chairman Combers and in his team, 0:15:45.280 --> 0:15:49.880 who we work with very closely, is developing that fundamental 0:15:49.920 --> 0:15:53.760 record set so the Trump administration can charge those people 0:15:53.800 --> 0:15:56.560 who have invalid pardons, which of course they will take 0:15:56.600 --> 0:15:58.240 all the way after the Supreme Court. But for these 0:15:58.320 --> 0:16:01.040 violent drug offenders still in prison, that's a last I 0:16:01.080 --> 0:16:02.960 don't even think that gets the Supreme Court. 0:16:02.960 --> 0:16:06.480 Seawan, Wow, I really appreciate your time. That's a great update. 0:16:06.560 --> 0:16:09.480 Mike Cowell, President of the Oversight Project. Thank you, sir. 0:16:09.520 --> 0:16:11.920 We appreciate you being with us eight hundred and nine 0:16:11.920 --> 0:16:14.760 to four one showing us on number remember yesterday. I 0:16:14.760 --> 0:16:18.360 mean this is now. If the Democratic Party wants to 0:16:18.400 --> 0:16:21.840 know why in the last four years that there's been 0:16:22.080 --> 0:16:26.840 a decline in Democratic Party registrations and a massive increase 0:16:27.200 --> 0:16:31.680 in Republican Party registrations nearly a five million voter swing 0:16:31.960 --> 0:16:34.120 in very critical states, by the way, and it's only 0:16:34.160 --> 0:16:37.239 going to get bigger as Donald Trump gets more successful. 0:16:37.920 --> 0:16:40.960 In part, you could look at Washington, d C. I mean, 0:16:41.040 --> 0:16:43.760 how is it that this great country of ours, the 0:16:43.840 --> 0:16:49.160 United States of America, has by far the highest homicide 0:16:49.240 --> 0:16:53.760 rate in our nation's capital of any country in the 0:16:53.920 --> 0:16:57.120 entire world, at forty one per one hundred thousand. The 0:16:57.160 --> 0:17:01.800 next lowest, I'm sorry, the next highest is sixteen per 0:17:01.800 --> 0:17:05.240 one hundred thousand. And these are this is worldwide data 0:17:05.720 --> 0:17:10.160 in terms of capital cities around the world. You can't 0:17:10.200 --> 0:17:14.320 have any more spectacular of a failure. Now, we do 0:17:14.359 --> 0:17:16.840 have some good news to report, and I think it's 0:17:16.880 --> 0:17:20.680 important that we do. DC has had a murder free week, 0:17:20.800 --> 0:17:24.000 as the Attorney General Pam Bondi now is touting seventy 0:17:24.040 --> 0:17:28.120 seven more arrests. The danger to the public safety DC 0:17:28.320 --> 0:17:32.119 police misclassified. We're finding out many many deaths, So the 0:17:32.160 --> 0:17:35.159 forty one out of per one hundred thousand is much higher. 0:17:35.240 --> 0:17:39.800 According to reports, A veteran Metropolitan Police Department official officer 0:17:40.040 --> 0:17:43.720 alleged in an ongoing lawsuit that law enforcement officials in 0:17:43.840 --> 0:17:48.680 DC purposefully, we're told to misclassify apparent murders in an 0:17:48.680 --> 0:17:53.400 effort to artificially deflate the district's real homicide numbers, according 0:17:53.400 --> 0:17:56.359 to documents reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon. And we 0:17:56.440 --> 0:17:59.240 have been commenting on that. By the way, Judge Piro, 0:17:59.359 --> 0:18:03.080 our friend colleague, says people who carry rifles and shotguns 0:18:03.119 --> 0:18:07.800 in Washington, DC will no longer face felony charges, and 0:18:07.880 --> 0:18:11.800 that's got people up in arms. We expect, by the way, 0:18:12.440 --> 0:18:16.680 the President is going to be out meeting with people, 0:18:16.840 --> 0:18:19.080 which I think ax is a great idea of the president, 0:18:19.480 --> 0:18:22.520 in the next hour, maybe later, it depends, not always 0:18:22.600 --> 0:18:25.439 on time. But the President announced that he will go 0:18:25.480 --> 0:18:28.199 out on patrol with the Metropolitan Police Department and National 0:18:28.200 --> 0:18:31.320 Guard troops around DC, just like Pete hag Seth and 0:18:31.359 --> 0:18:34.440 Steven Miller and JD. Vans did yesterday. But you remember 0:18:34.600 --> 0:18:37.479 what democrats, You know, they care more about the so 0:18:37.640 --> 0:18:41.760 called rights of illegals over law and order, respecting our borders, 0:18:41.760 --> 0:18:44.880 a sovereignty, the laws of this land. They care more 0:18:44.880 --> 0:18:48.720 about the abrago Garcias of the world. They never ever 0:18:49.400 --> 0:18:54.359 ever mention the victims of violent crime by unvetted Harris 0:18:54.400 --> 0:18:57.480 Biden illegals, somewhere between twelve and twenty million of them. 0:18:57.800 --> 0:19:00.719 They don't mention that we have known terrorists, murder is, rapist, 0:19:01.040 --> 0:19:04.440 gang members, cartel members. We stay on this all the time. 0:19:04.440 --> 0:19:06.439 They lie to us for four years that the border 0:19:06.520 --> 0:19:09.520 was closed and the border was secure. You know, this 0:19:09.560 --> 0:19:12.560 is the party of defund dismantled nobil laws. This is 0:19:12.600 --> 0:19:15.520 the party of the champions the rights of men to 0:19:15.560 --> 0:19:18.360 play women's sports. And the list goes on and on. 0:19:18.760 --> 0:19:20.840 And this is the party that voted against the largest 0:19:20.880 --> 0:19:24.199 tax cut in American history, and yet they claim to 0:19:24.240 --> 0:19:26.760 be the party of working men and women. Go back 0:19:26.760 --> 0:19:31.000 to yesterday. Here is a Congressman from California, Garcia, you know, 0:19:31.359 --> 0:19:35.560 excoriating President Trump for daring to try to make our 0:19:35.640 --> 0:19:36.800 nations capital safe. 0:19:37.000 --> 0:19:38.760 But do you think that your colleagues in the Senate 0:19:38.800 --> 0:19:42.320 Senate Democrats should refuse to fund the government. That deadline 0:19:42.359 --> 0:19:45.680 is coming up at the end of September. Should they 0:19:45.720 --> 0:19:49.919 refuse to vote on these spending bills using that leverage 0:19:50.040 --> 0:19:55.480 until they see President Trump reverse deploying troops in the 0:19:55.480 --> 0:19:57.160 seats in the streets of DC. 0:19:57.720 --> 0:19:59.560 Yes, I mean first, that should be on the table. 0:20:00.000 --> 0:20:01.320 Don't think we should be ruling that out. I think 0:20:01.880 --> 0:20:04.520 that general question of the Senate, the House mean every 0:20:04.680 --> 0:20:07.119 all of us should be united and using everything that 0:20:07.160 --> 0:20:09.159 we can do in all of our power to stop 0:20:09.200 --> 0:20:10.600 what Trump is doing right now. I'm not just in 0:20:10.600 --> 0:20:13.399 deceive it across the country. So absolutely that should be 0:20:13.400 --> 0:20:13.960 on the table. 0:20:14.240 --> 0:20:17.320 Absolutely, that should be on the table. Let's listen to Washington, 0:20:17.440 --> 0:20:21.920 DC residents supporting Trump and the federalization and the use 0:20:21.920 --> 0:20:24.920 of National Guard troops to keep DC residents safe. 0:20:25.400 --> 0:20:27.560 We need all the protection that we can get in 0:20:27.640 --> 0:20:31.600 the city. Record the city is really getting dangerous. A 0:20:31.640 --> 0:20:34.800 person like me this age, it has to make sure 0:20:35.040 --> 0:20:39.119 to come home before sundown. I enjoy having extra security. 0:20:39.359 --> 0:20:41.680 I think it's a good thing. I mean, you want 0:20:41.680 --> 0:20:44.840 to feel safe when you're out and about, especially females. 0:20:45.000 --> 0:20:47.640 It's a good thing because it actually reinforces the fact 0:20:47.680 --> 0:20:50.040 that America is secure, safe stable. 0:20:50.160 --> 0:20:53.240 Elliott Reid says he supports the federal involvement. 0:20:52.920 --> 0:20:55.240 As a moderate, as a centrist, I think something needs 0:20:55.280 --> 0:20:58.480 to be done. I feel safer. I do does about 0:20:58.520 --> 0:21:01.119 me at all, I just know more police. 0:21:00.880 --> 0:21:01.479 Presidents there are. 0:21:02.080 --> 0:21:03.960 I just feel like I'm worn't tying to be downtown 0:21:04.000 --> 0:21:06.520 more often, definitely in the evenings. 0:21:06.840 --> 0:21:08.600 And if you take me, I came all the way 0:21:08.640 --> 0:21:13.119 down Pennsylvania Avenue this morning, so peaceful. He owned some 0:21:13.320 --> 0:21:16.680 on no weed, young, I don't see no homeless people. 0:21:16.720 --> 0:21:18.840 I mean I came all the way through the southeast side, 0:21:18.960 --> 0:21:23.040 all the way down here. Is a shame that it 0:21:23.160 --> 0:21:26.600 takes somebody to have to sit in your classroom in 0:21:26.720 --> 0:21:29.720 order for you to be in order, you know, because 0:21:29.760 --> 0:21:30.679 that's what it feels like. 0:21:30.720 --> 0:21:33.879 Man, Welcome back to the program. Very dear friend of ours. 0:21:33.960 --> 0:21:37.000 Leo two point o Terrell now the Senior council to 0:21:37.200 --> 0:21:41.040 the Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights. He's heading up 0:21:41.040 --> 0:21:45.480 a new Justice Department task force to combat anti Semitism. 0:21:46.080 --> 0:21:49.280 He's living in the DC metro area, which I'm very 0:21:49.320 --> 0:21:52.720 sorry to hear coming from LA. We got to find 0:21:52.720 --> 0:21:56.040 you a better city, Leo. I saw that your ex 0:21:56.119 --> 0:21:59.520 post the mayor of d C is a failure. Remember 0:21:59.640 --> 0:22:03.520 she was the one responsible for BLM Boulevard. I live 0:22:03.560 --> 0:22:05.919 in DC. I'm sick of the homelessness. I'm sick of 0:22:05.960 --> 0:22:08.840 the crime. President Trump, please take complete control of our 0:22:08.920 --> 0:22:12.320 nation's capital city. Good for you, well, Sean. 0:22:12.400 --> 0:22:13.720 Let me first of all give you some news and 0:22:13.760 --> 0:22:15.520 breaking news. President Trump is going to be in the 0:22:15.600 --> 0:22:19.359 DC area. I will be there with him tonight because 0:22:19.359 --> 0:22:21.800 he's invited me to join him, and I have accepted that. 0:22:22.119 --> 0:22:24.000
