Speaker 1: sewn if you want to be a part of the program.

29
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:26,280
Speaker 1: Are really two big news stories that we are following

30
00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,800
Speaker 1: today and and one is the battle over immigration and

31
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 1: the battle of our separating children from their parents. Um

32
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:41,959
Speaker 1: and how nobody ever on the Democratic side, wants to

33
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 1: solve a problem completely. Ever, nobody wants children separated from

34
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 1: their parents. And the reality is nobody in the Democratic Party,

35
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:58,320
Speaker 1: frankly wants solutions to immigration that would ultimately ensure it

36
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:02,680
Speaker 1: never happened. And we'll get into that today. We have

37
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:06,560
Speaker 1: the Inspector General Harowitz now before the Senate Committee of

38
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:11,360
Speaker 1: Charles Grassley and it's getting really interesting, and you have

39
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 1: two obvious competing narratives in all of this. I'm gonna

40
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 1: go everything over everything that's been happening here. Uh. You know,

41
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:22,680
Speaker 1: as a matter of fact, John Cornyn is is now speaking.

42
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 1: Let's just dip into what he's asking urged conduct he

43
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,920
Speaker 1: aired when he said that no reason he usurped really

44
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 1: the role of the Attorney General in the Department of

45
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:35,679
Speaker 1: Justice when he said that no reasonable prosecutor would bring

46
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:40,040
Speaker 1: charges under the facts um and that he violated a

47
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:44,520
Speaker 1: number of Department of Justice policies of norms. Is that correct?

48
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 1: That's correct. I think your opinion was certainly reinforced by

49
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 1: op ed pieces by former Attorney General Holder when he

50
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:57,959
Speaker 1: wrote an op ed in the Washington Post, and by

51
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 1: Jamie Grillic and Larry Thompson, former deputy assistant Attorney Generals,

52
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 1: in an article they wrote, James Comey is damaging our democracy.

53
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:16,840
Speaker 1: The Rosenstein memo that was written by the Deputy Attorney

54
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:20,000
Speaker 1: General forwarded to the Attorney General and then attached, I

55
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:23,959
Speaker 1: think to a letter whereby the President and formed Mr

56
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:28,639
Speaker 1: Comey that he's his services as director the FBI were

57
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:34,040
Speaker 1: being terminated substantially are substantially similar to what you found

58
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 1: in your report. Correct, Una, it's gonna be We're gonna

59
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 1: be more productive for you information wise because we're literally

60
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 1: taking notes of all of this. It literally started the

61
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 1: Inspector General maybe started talking about forty five minutes ago. Uh,

62
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 1: and I have a summary of up to that. But

63
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:53,680
Speaker 1: let me bring you first up to speed on everything

64
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 1: that is happening here. And one interesting note as we

65
00:03:56,400 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 1: get going is that looks like the usually puckative James

66
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 1: Comey doesn't want to talk about the i G report. Uh.

67
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 1: And Loretta Lynch apparently also appears to be stonewalling. And

68
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 1: it was interesting because Charles Grassley gave a statement at

69
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:15,480
Speaker 1: the very beginning of these hearings and he said that, uh,

70
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,279
Speaker 1: it's it's pretty interesting because he invited all of these

71
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:22,320
Speaker 1: people to actually come before the committee, and I find

72
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 1: that pretty interesting, and that they invited deputy former deputy

73
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:30,560
Speaker 1: FBI Director Andrew McCabe to testify, and his lawyers said

74
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 1: that he would rely on his Fifth Amendment rights against

75
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 1: self incrimination and avoid answering any questions there and he

76
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:40,040
Speaker 1: would invoke those rights. Comey's attorney told Senator Grassle he's

77
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,479
Speaker 1: out of the country, and it turns out he was

78
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,799
Speaker 1: in Iowa over the weekend. According to his Twitter feed,

79
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,320
Speaker 1: he seems to be having a wonderful time. Senator Grassley

80
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:51,280
Speaker 1: said that's the second time since he was fired that

81
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:56,800
Speaker 1: Comey refused an invitation to testify before Senator Grassley's committee voluntarily.

82
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 1: And he points out he had plenty of time for

83
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:02,039
Speaker 1: his book tours, the television interviews, but apparently no time

84
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:05,719
Speaker 1: to assist this committee, which has primary jurisdiction over the

85
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:08,760
Speaker 1: Justice Department. And then he pointed out Lauretta Lynch was

86
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 1: also a no show. And then he pointed out the

87
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 1: need for transparency does not end when senior officials are

88
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:18,279
Speaker 1: fired or that they quit, and we'll find out if

89
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:22,440
Speaker 1: ultimately they get pulled in to testify at some point.

90
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 1: But you know, being a wall is pretty interesting. You

91
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:30,160
Speaker 1: have two key Rushia Gate witnesses now saying that the

92
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:34,680
Speaker 1: FBI tried to entrap the Trump campaign, and you know this,

93
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 1: this is getting more interesting by the day. Also, I'm

94
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:38,920
Speaker 1: gonna get into that in the course of the program,

95
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:40,560
Speaker 1: but let me just give you a quick summary of

96
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:44,479
Speaker 1: everything here. Jonathan Turley, I thought made it an amazing

97
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 1: point and and also a lot of people made the

98
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 1: point about the two tier justice system that we have

99
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 1: the facts, as I said to you all last week,

100
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:57,000
Speaker 1: don't change as it relates to the Hillary Clinton email

101
00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:01,640
Speaker 1: server case. Hillary Clinton did all of those things, violated

102
00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:04,880
Speaker 1: all of those laws. And as the Inspector General says

103
00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,719
Speaker 1: in his report, it's not his duty to determine or

104
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:12,479
Speaker 1: ascertain or second gas the quote prosecutorial discretion that we're

105
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:16,040
Speaker 1: used by the people and involved in these decisions. That's

106
00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:19,040
Speaker 1: not what he was tasked with over time. And I

107
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,280
Speaker 1: think this is only the beginning of a process because

108
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:23,240
Speaker 1: now witnesses are gonna come in and they're gonna give

109
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 1: us shed more light into everything that has happened here.

110
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,599
Speaker 1: But when you look and you compare and you contrast,

111
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:35,280
Speaker 1: you know the voluntary nature, the haphazard way in which

112
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 1: this investigation was handled, coupled with the obvious political bias

113
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:44,159
Speaker 1: of so many at the upper echelon level of the

114
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 1: FBI and Department of Justice, you begin to see that

115
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:53,520
Speaker 1: it basically was well, I won't say necessarily a word conspiracy,

116
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:59,040
Speaker 1: but there's no doubt that they fixed and and investigation

117
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:02,520
Speaker 1: to allow one candidate, the favored candidate to go forward,

118
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 1: and then they went it literally balls to the wall

119
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:09,240
Speaker 1: against the other candidate, using every power that they had,

120
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 1: as it relates to subpoenas, and as it relates to

121
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: Warren's and as it relates to digging into unrelated matters.

122
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:19,920
Speaker 1: And Loretta Lynch never put any type of special counsel

123
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,560
Speaker 1: into the investigation into Hillary, which should have been done

124
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:26,120
Speaker 1: from the beginning. And you know, Jonathan Turley makes a

125
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 1: point two months ago, based on leaks from the Muller investigation,

126
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 1: you have a wave of these media reports claiming, well

127
00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:35,560
Speaker 1: that because Mueller had come up empty on Trump Russia collusion,

128
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 1: now he's shifting his focus to obstruction of justice. But

129
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 1: if obstruction now is Mueller's last hope here, then his

130
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 1: investigation is now essentially over. And Turley makes this point,

131
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,679
Speaker 1: and you know, and and Mark Levin made a great point.

132
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:54,239
Speaker 1: He goes, you know, if anybody in all of this

133
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 1: in any way is guilty of any tampering with the investigation,

134
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:03,920
Speaker 1: it's FBI upper echelon. It's the d o J. It's

135
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 1: what they did in this case, it's how they have

136
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:10,840
Speaker 1: handled everything, because it was certainly designed to do everything

137
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:15,240
Speaker 1: possible to help Hillary and hurt Trump anyway. Turley says

138
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:18,760
Speaker 1: to me, the obstruction claim involving Comy was always difficult.

139
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 1: He said, after the i G, it's become virtually incomprehensible

140
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:26,520
Speaker 1: because the i G said that Comey was insubordinate and

141
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 1: that he deviated from policies, and he violated FBI policy,

142
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:32,760
Speaker 1: and all those are a good reason to fire Comy.

143
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:35,240
Speaker 1: Then he added, the problem that's gonna come up for

144
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,560
Speaker 1: critics of President Trump is that this dog just won't hunt.

145
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,720
Speaker 1: When you both the i G and the Deputy Attorney

146
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:44,960
Speaker 1: General saying he deserved to be fired, you can't assume

147
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 1: everything against him or anything basically. And Turley also said

148
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 1: that if Mueller plans to use Comy's firing as a

149
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:55,559
Speaker 1: way of proving obstruction, the Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein

150
00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:58,559
Speaker 1: should be forced to accuse himself from the case, because

151
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:02,120
Speaker 1: if Mueller was really going after obstruction based on Comey,

152
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 1: and Rod Rosenstein would have had to recuse himself. And

153
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:09,720
Speaker 1: Rosenstein said, if Mueller told him he was a witness,

154
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:13,199
Speaker 1: well he would remove himself and he hasn't done that,

155
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,800
Speaker 1: which makes me think one of two things. Either Mueller's

156
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:20,839
Speaker 1: ignoring conflicts of interest or he's not seriously pursuing that angle. Well,

157
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 1: then you have to add into the whole thing, the

158
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 1: whole Peter Struck equation. Because Peter Struck, who's now saying, oh,

159
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,880
Speaker 1: I want to testify, I'm willing to testify before committee,

160
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:32,000
Speaker 1: is good? Come on in testify, and I'm not asking

161
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,959
Speaker 1: for immunity. Good, don't ask for immunity. Because he's got

162
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:38,920
Speaker 1: himself one big political problem. Uh. As he too was

163
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:42,560
Speaker 1: the one that that literally jumped started this whole Russia

164
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:47,480
Speaker 1: investigation long before it appears, with the two spies in

165
00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:52,200
Speaker 1: the campaign anybody ever knew. So their timeline doesn't work

166
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 1: out either, and that's not gonna work in their favor,

167
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:58,319
Speaker 1: you know. Hours after the FBI reports released, Christopher Ray,

168
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:01,680
Speaker 1: the FBI Director, says, We're gonna require all of our

169
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:04,720
Speaker 1: senior executives from all around the world to convene for

170
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 1: an in depth trading specifically focused on learning the lessons

171
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:10,720
Speaker 1: that we should learn from this report. Then we're gonna

172
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:15,280
Speaker 1: train every single FBI employee, new hires, veterans alike on

173
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:19,240
Speaker 1: what went wrong so the mistakes won't ever be repeated. Now,

174
00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 1: whether it's a large business or a big government like

175
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:25,679
Speaker 1: the FBI. Yeah, all personnel matters and are handled by

176
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 1: what's usually called the human resources department. And I guess

177
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:31,359
Speaker 1: at the top of the agenda for the human resources

178
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:34,080
Speaker 1: department is hiring of new employees as well as training

179
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:37,280
Speaker 1: and retraining to make sure that they're in compliance. Well,

180
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:41,480
Speaker 1: guess who is now a supervisor in the FBI's Human

181
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:46,720
Speaker 1: resources department. Well, apparently it's Peter Struck. He's now considered

182
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:50,520
Speaker 1: one of the FBI's most experienced counter intelligence agents. He's

183
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:54,720
Speaker 1: now been reassigned to a supervisor supervisory job in the

184
00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 1: bureau's Human Resources division after Robert Mueller had to let

185
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,560
Speaker 1: him go. Why hasn't had to let a lot of

186
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:05,240
Speaker 1: other people go, like Genie Ray, and Andrew Wiseman and others.

187
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:08,520
Speaker 1: Is beyond any comprehension I have. So the human resources

188
00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:11,680
Speaker 1: supervisor Peter Struck will now play a major role in

189
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:16,400
Speaker 1: retraining FBI employees on how to remain unbiased. Well, that's

190
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:19,679
Speaker 1: going to be interesting. And Comey told the i G

191
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:24,440
Speaker 1: the Clinton lawyers intimidated d o J prosecutors. Why it

192
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:27,360
Speaker 1: wasn't this reported before? Because it's in the i G

193
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:32,360
Speaker 1: report Comey complaining that Hillary's lawyers quote intimidated prosecutors at

194
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:35,840
Speaker 1: the Department of Justice. Now, if that's the case, why

195
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:41,440
Speaker 1: can anyone explain why you didn't recommend charging them with obstruction? Why?

196
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:43,200
Speaker 1: Because that would have ruined the cover up, That would

197
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:47,080
Speaker 1: have ruined the agenda. Anyway, call me. And other bureau

198
00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:50,080
Speaker 1: employees were telling investigators that the i G they thought

199
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:54,040
Speaker 1: the Department of Justice prosecutors were intimidated by Hillary's high

200
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:57,240
Speaker 1: powered legal team. Well, when has that ever happened before?

201
00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,960
Speaker 1: I don't see that they're so intimidated with Mueller's campaign

202
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:05,440
Speaker 1: over Rudy Julianni and the Trump defense team. Anyway, Comey, Baker.

203
00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:09,600
Speaker 1: Other FBI witnesses told us they believed the prosecutors were

204
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:13,960
Speaker 1: overly cautious about obtaining the laptops because they were intimidated

205
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:17,959
Speaker 1: by high powered defense counsel like Beth Wilkinson, according to

206
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 1: the i G report, and the report also describes other

207
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 1: FBI witnesses who made the same claim, including struck In Page,

208
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:28,520
Speaker 1: whose text messages and the report revealed their political bias

209
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:32,240
Speaker 1: against Trump becoming president. Quote. Some FBI witnesses told us,

210
00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:36,199
Speaker 1: consistent with text message exchanges between Struck and Page that

211
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:42,200
Speaker 1: the FBI was concerned that literally someone was concerned that

212
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:46,400
Speaker 1: they were prosecutors were intimidated by high powered attorneys representing Clinton.

213
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 1: And then it goes on. Struck told the prosecutor, one

214
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:53,640
Speaker 1: who handled most of the negotiations with Counsel is extraordinarily competent,

215
00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:56,680
Speaker 1: but he believed more senior government officials should be involved

216
00:12:56,679 --> 00:13:00,160
Speaker 1: in deciding how hard to push counsel. And two relatively

217
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:04,199
Speaker 1: vague conclusions came from the FBI witnesses. The facts don't change.

218
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:08,959
Speaker 1: In this case, Hillary violated the Espionage Act, mishandled and

219
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:13,920
Speaker 1: destroyed top secret classified special Access programming information. She then

220
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 1: was subpoenaed, and then she violated the subpoena why by

221
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:21,480
Speaker 1: the leading emails and and bleach bidding, acid washing the

222
00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 1: hard drive, and then busting up devices, And then she

223
00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 1: got a pass on all of it. And while the

224
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,120
Speaker 1: Inspector General can claim all he wants, that is not

225
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:34,400
Speaker 1: political bias, it reeks of all political bias, from top

226
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:38,600
Speaker 1: to bottom, from inside and out and head to toe.

227
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,080
Speaker 1: It just is what it is. And anybody that tells

228
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:43,120
Speaker 1: you any different is just not telling you the truth,

229
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:45,640
Speaker 1: all right, there's a lot of ground to cover here,

230
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:49,240
Speaker 1: not the least of which is you know, the FBI.

231
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:53,360
Speaker 1: Literally now we you can conclude one thing. They had

232
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:58,120
Speaker 1: an agenda, those that mattered, and they interfered with this election,

233
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 1: and that was their goal and they would have gotten

234
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 1: away with it. Of Hillary want and the lead FBI investigator,

235
00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 1: Paul and Hillary President four months before the election. That's

236
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 1: in the IG report. And Peter Struck wants to testify.

237
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:15,880
Speaker 1: Let him testify. And now there's a bigger show down

238
00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:19,640
Speaker 1: with the Department of Justice. And now apparently Trey Goudy

239
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:23,760
Speaker 1: and Paul Ryan have been are now involved in this.

240
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 1: Will tell you about that when we get back. With

241
00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:31,000
Speaker 1: only a kite, a house key, and wet hempstring, Benjamin

242

Speaker 1: Franklin captured lightning in a bottle over two d and

00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:06,920
Speaker 1: no there's no place like home. There is no place

249
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:12,960
Speaker 1: like home, all right, Well, think you're funny and Sean, well,

250
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:14,560
Speaker 1: when you're on the other side of the world and

251
00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:17,000
Speaker 1: you're doing a radio show at three am, you kind

252
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 1: of want to get home and get back to your

253
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:22,480
Speaker 1: regular schedule. That's what that's all about. Um, we have

254
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 1: the i G Report. You know, you just keep reading

255
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,680
Speaker 1: through it and you find nugget after nugget after nugget.

256
00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 1: You know, top do o J officials tipping off Hillary

257
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:37,400
Speaker 1: Clinton's campaign on the email probe. Now, that would be

258
00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:41,560
Speaker 1: big news in and of itself alone, and there's so

259
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 1: many of these nuggets in there, and I'm gonna I'm

260
00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:45,960
Speaker 1: gonna break all this down throughout the program today. But

261
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:49,280
Speaker 1: when the report on covers that a top d o

262
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:52,760
Speaker 1: J official is tipping off the Clinton campaign just like

263
00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:57,160
Speaker 1: you know, this relationship with the media, golf trips and

264
00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:59,920
Speaker 1: and dinners and and all the fun that they're having,

265
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:04,680
Speaker 1: you know, it's pretty unbelievable. But the Inspector General report

266
00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:07,880
Speaker 1: reports shows that a former d J official faults them

267
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:13,440
Speaker 1: for sending Hillary Clinton's campaign. John Podesta in particular, heads

268
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:17,880
Speaker 1: up about the release schedule for Clinton's emails, as he

269
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:20,480
Speaker 1: also tried to get his son a job with the

270
00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:26,360
Speaker 1: Clinton campaign. That's how incestuous this whole swamp is. Anyway,

271
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:30,480
Speaker 1: the Assistant Attorney General, Peter Katzick is his name, demonstrated

272
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:34,920
Speaker 1: poor judgment, poor judgment. Would that be how any of

273
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:37,880
Speaker 1: us were treated? And this goes to the whole heart

274
00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 1: of everything involved here. Why does this matter? Because if

275
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:45,840
Speaker 1: you did any of the things Hillary did, you would

276
00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:50,320
Speaker 1: be in jail if you obstructed the way she obstructed that.

277
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 1: You know, it's so funny how the media reacts when

278
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:55,840
Speaker 1: I say, well, Robert Mueller is asking for your phone.

279
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:58,720
Speaker 1: If I was, if I ever said to those people

280
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:02,120
Speaker 1: that they should just delete the emails and acid washed

281
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,760
Speaker 1: their hard drives with bleach bit and then have an

282
00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:07,880
Speaker 1: aid break up your devices with hammers and take out

283
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:10,679
Speaker 1: the sim cards. If I ever said a bad idea,

284
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:12,919
Speaker 1: it's not going to end well for you. Just kidding,

285
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 1: just saying it sends the media overboard, But the fact

286
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:20,400
Speaker 1: that all of this happens doesn't impact them at all.

287
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:23,679
Speaker 1: And now we've got a media and the FBI and

288
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:28,400
Speaker 1: in this incestuous swamp relationship, and now the Clinton campaign,

289
00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:31,400
Speaker 1: tipped off by d o J officials, in this incestuous

290
00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:35,680
Speaker 1: swamp found that several of the people investigating Secretary Clinton

291
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:40,080
Speaker 1: for using personal email, we're doing the same thing themselves.

292
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:43,879
Speaker 1: Each agency and every employee has an obligation to comply

293
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:48,639
Speaker 1: with the Federal Records Act. Question number one to Mr Harwitz,

294
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:51,960
Speaker 1: in light of the laws, the laws, record keeping requirements,

295
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:55,200
Speaker 1: how did you try to get access to their personal

296
00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 1: devices or accounts? UM. One of the challenges we had,

297
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 1: as we note in the report, is that UM to

298
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:06,399
Speaker 1: gain access to personal emails would have required either a

299
00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:11,280
Speaker 1: grandeury subpoena or a search warrant given the facts this case, UM,

300
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:15,240
Speaker 1: and so we were limited because our administrative subpoena authority

301
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:21,560
Speaker 1: doesn't cover this. To ask UM for voluntary cooperation, we

302
00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:25,000
Speaker 1: were given oral representations. We were not given access to

303
00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:29,320
Speaker 1: the email accounts. Former Director Comey said on television that

304
00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 1: the Inspector General interviewed him about the handling of his

305
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:37,080
Speaker 1: mammals of conversations with President Trump. Some of those mammals

306
00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:41,240
Speaker 1: contain classified information. Comey said he did not expect a

307
00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:45,840
Speaker 1: report on his handling of classified information because, quote unquote,

308
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:49,280
Speaker 1: that's frivolous. I don't happen to think that it is frivolous.

309
00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:54,639
Speaker 1: Question Number one to Mr Horowitz, are you investigating Comy's

310
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:59,400
Speaker 1: handling of his mammals? And does that include the classification issues?

311
00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:03,159
Speaker 1: And should Mr call me expect a report when it

312
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:07,000
Speaker 1: is complete. Um, we received a referral on that from

313
00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:10,360
Speaker 1: the FBI. We are handling that referral and we will

314
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:14,200
Speaker 1: issue a report when, um, the matter is complete, consistent

315
00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:17,720
Speaker 1: with the law and rules that are in a report

316
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:21,400
Speaker 1: that's consistent and takes us into account alright, that from

317
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,840
Speaker 1: the Inspector General Horowitz, and of course the FBI Director

318
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:29,080
Speaker 1: Ray is involved. Here you find out two more Hillary

319
00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:31,879
Speaker 1: investigators were having an affair in all of this. Agent

320
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:36,800
Speaker 1: one remember five now or being investigated. Agent one was

321
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:40,040
Speaker 1: adamant that the fix was in admits that Hillary's I

322
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:44,399
Speaker 1: t guy light his ass off. Agent number two in

323
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,840
Speaker 1: this case screw you Trump three. And then the same

324
00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:51,920
Speaker 1: one says, if Hillary loses, I'm gonna be walking around

325
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:54,959
Speaker 1: with both my guns and likely quitting on the spot.

326
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:59,399
Speaker 1: And I guess you know what James Comey's vaunted Hillary

327
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:02,800
Speaker 1: email and instigator the team was busy doing when they're

328
00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:06,160
Speaker 1: supposed to be investigating Hillary. You know, the facts don't

329
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:09,800
Speaker 1: change in this case. FBI rank and file. I'm predicting

330
00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:11,719
Speaker 1: and have been predicting, They're gonna end up being the

331
00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:14,199
Speaker 1: heroes in all of this. They're the ones that are

332
00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 1: gonna come forward and talk about how protocol was broken.

333
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:20,160
Speaker 1: They're gonna be the ones that come forward and they

334
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:23,880
Speaker 1: are going to describe how it was taken away from them,

335
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:28,080
Speaker 1: meaning the investigation. Uh, They're gonna talk about the bias

336
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:33,000
Speaker 1: that existed, the abuse and bias that existed. This is

337
00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:37,439
Speaker 1: imagine the most powerful people within the FBI and the

338
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:42,280
Speaker 1: Department of Justice now rigging an investigation to allow their

339
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:45,960
Speaker 1: favorite candidate to get off scott free, when any other

340
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:49,560
Speaker 1: American would have been put in jail, any other American

341
00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:53,359
Speaker 1: would have been charged with obstructing justice, would have been

342
00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:57,280
Speaker 1: charged with violating the Espionage Act. And we've highlighted a

343
00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 1: lot of those cases before. You know, you know, first

344
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:02,960
Speaker 1: you have Peter Struck and Lisa Page. Now you've got

345
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:06,679
Speaker 1: Agents one and Agents five. Apparently they're love birds as well.

346
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:11,280
Speaker 1: And I guess that is even more shocking is the

347
00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:14,119
Speaker 1: things that they're saying. You know, Agent one, one of

348
00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:18,040
Speaker 1: the key players in the investigation. More, more bias in

349
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:22,159
Speaker 1: Pillory's favor and more anti Trump sentiment. These are the

350
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:25,159
Speaker 1: top key players in all of this. It's not just

351
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:28,679
Speaker 1: Struck in page and a few days before the you know,

352
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:32,320
Speaker 1: Clinton con fab or remember when this is all heading

353
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:36,439
Speaker 1: into July and heading into the conventions in you know,

354
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:39,000
Speaker 1: his instant message in which he's complaining about how many

355
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:42,119
Speaker 1: agents and attorneys were prepping for the questioning, you know,

356
00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:47,160
Speaker 1: very aggravating, making this flow with twenty plus voices for

357
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:51,919
Speaker 1: you know, desparate information anyway, and as the message goes on,

358
00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 1: he suggests that he has a certain lack of enthusiasm

359
00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:59,040
Speaker 1: for doing his job, which is to look into the

360
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:03,240
Speaker 1: crimes that Hillary we know committed, we have nothing, shouldn't

361
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:06,159
Speaker 1: even be interviewing Clinton. And by the way, just in

362
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:10,119
Speaker 1: case his girlfriend didn't have didn't you know, savvy the

363
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:14,520
Speaker 1: full extent of the disgruntleman here, or at the prospect

364
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:17,640
Speaker 1: of interviewing Hillary, which was done by another Trump pater

365
00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:21,320
Speaker 1: Clinton lover, Peter Struck. You know, my god, I'm actually

366
00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:25,640
Speaker 1: starting to have embarrassment sprinkled on my disappointment. Ever been

367
00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:29,640
Speaker 1: forced to do something you're adamantly opposed to doing? Well,

368
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,679
Speaker 1: this is what their job is, and from what we

369
00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:36,080
Speaker 1: know none of these people have been fired here. And

370
00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:38,879
Speaker 1: asked about the i G by the i G about

371
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:42,560
Speaker 1: these comments, Agent one insisted he meant uh. He hadn't

372
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:44,800
Speaker 1: meant his message. I don't want it to make it

373
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:47,800
Speaker 1: sound like there was no reason an interviewer as for

374
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:52,280
Speaker 1: explaining he was adamantly opposed. His memory gives out in

375
00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:56,040
Speaker 1: this investigation. And then you get the heartfelt string of

376
00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:59,840
Speaker 1: missives between Agent one and Age and five on election.

377
00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:04,040
Speaker 1: You should know I'm with her. Other comments from Agent

378
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 1: one shows he has no interest whatsoever in digging up

379
00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:10,800
Speaker 1: any more evidence that would create any problems for Hillary Clinton.

380
00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:14,600
Speaker 1: This is the most meaningless thing I've ever done. People

381
00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:18,320
Speaker 1: acting like you know it's blanking nine eleven. I don't

382
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:20,879
Speaker 1: care about it. I think it's a continued waste of

383
00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:24,880
Speaker 1: resources and time and focus. It's just so obvious how

384
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 1: pointless this exercises. And then when the i G put

385
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:32,040
Speaker 1: him on the spot, you know, guys, this was primarily

386
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:35,600
Speaker 1: used as a personal conversation venting mode for me. I'm

387
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 1: embarrassed by it, but um only humbled so far. I

388
00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:42,720
Speaker 1: don't think that it affected my actions. And then the

389
00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:47,040
Speaker 1: other agent sent a message to Agent one on February

390
00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:52,000
Speaker 1: nin griping about the Hillary investigation, the midyear work as

391
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:54,760
Speaker 1: we call it, that she was given to do. Agent

392
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:58,800
Speaker 1: one messaging back to commiserate. Yeah, I hear you. You know,

393
00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:03,840
Speaker 1: you guys have a S word task and same word

394
00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:07,120
Speaker 1: environment to look for something conjured up in a place

395
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:09,320
Speaker 1: where you can't find it for a case that doesn't

396
00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:14,480
Speaker 1: matter and is predestined. Predestined. Oh, we already have the answer.

397
00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:17,280
Speaker 1: Why are we doing the investigation? Because we all know

398
00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:20,639
Speaker 1: Agent one was adamant that the fix was in and

399
00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:24,320
Speaker 1: that goes back to Peter Struct's message, destroy Trump. We're

400
00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:26,720
Speaker 1: gonna destroy him. We're gonna get him, and we have

401
00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:29,680
Speaker 1: an insurance policy. If he gets by us, then you've

402
00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:34,160
Speaker 1: got aged four, you know, proclaiming that the fix being

403
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:36,200
Speaker 1: in here what we want to do and what we're

404
00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:38,600
Speaker 1: gonna be allowed to do with two different things. Asked

405
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:41,240
Speaker 1: about that quote by the I G, Agent one suffered

406
00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:44,800
Speaker 1: a temporary about of amnesia. Sounds like they learned well

407
00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:47,480
Speaker 1: from the person that they wanted elected to be president,

408
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:51,000
Speaker 1: Unable to remember what he'd been talking about. What he

409
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,639
Speaker 1: did know was that he had merely been venting, that's all,

410
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:56,320
Speaker 1: and it seems the fix was in not just for

411
00:24:56,400 --> 00:25:00,320
Speaker 1: Hillary but every one of her enablers, because in February,

412
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:04,120
Speaker 1: Agent one had just interviewed Hillary's personal I T guy.

413
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:07,640
Speaker 1: The agent had this exchange with a fellow FBI employee.

414
00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:11,240
Speaker 1: How did the witness go? Agent one? Awesome? He light

415
00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:15,280
Speaker 1: his ass off. Went from never inside the skiff sensitive

416
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:22,240
Speaker 1: compartmented information facility, to look in when it was being construed,

417
00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:25,840
Speaker 1: to remove trash twice, to troubleshoot, to secure facts with

418
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,960
Speaker 1: Hillary Rodham Clinton a couple of times too. Every time

419
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:30,960
Speaker 1: there was a secure facts I did it with Hillary

420
00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:34,000
Speaker 1: Rodham Clinton. You know, it would be funny if he

421
00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:37,000
Speaker 1: was if the only guy charged in this deal, if

422
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:40,159
Speaker 1: he was it Agent one, I know, even if he

423
00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:42,840
Speaker 1: said the truth and didn't have a clearance when handling

424
00:25:42,880 --> 00:25:46,159
Speaker 1: the secure facts, you know, ain't no one gonna do

425
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:51,280
Speaker 1: the S word. Agent five didn't share, you know, did

426
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:54,000
Speaker 1: her share of texting to joking with Agent one. Donald

427
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:58,080
Speaker 1: Trump's supporters in Ohio this is their word quote retarded.

428
00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:01,679
Speaker 1: That's what they right. She's sneered that she didn't know

429
00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:06,080
Speaker 1: who was worth Trump, the FBI, or the average American public.

430
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:10,720
Speaker 1: Come election day. She proclaimed that should Hillary lose, I'm

431
00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:13,440
Speaker 1: gonna be walking around with both my guns and likely

432
00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 1: quitting on the spot. And then she said, screw you.

433
00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:23,640
Speaker 1: Trump Agent five texted while at work. Who that's that's

434
00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:29,199
Speaker 1: everybody at the top, everybody involved in this. Do you

435
00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:33,760
Speaker 1: understand that they all interfered with an election? Talking about

436
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:39,400
Speaker 1: Russian interference? We have the evidence of interference. Let's listen

437
00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:43,240
Speaker 1: on Lindsey Graham. He was, in essence, the lead investigator. Okay,

438
00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:46,720
Speaker 1: so the head guy looking at Clinton on August the

439
00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:50,359
Speaker 1: eight says we gotta stop Trump. Now did was that

440
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:53,760
Speaker 1: just idle talk? A week later, here's what they say

441
00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:58,200
Speaker 1: to each other stroke text Messrs Lisa Page. I want

442
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:01,200
Speaker 1: to believe the path you threw out consideration in Andy's

443
00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:05,000
Speaker 1: office that there's no way he gets elected. But I'm

444
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:08,480
Speaker 1: afraid we can't take that risk. It's like an insurance

445
00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:12,960
Speaker 1: policy and the unlikely event you die before your forty.

446
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:17,919
Speaker 1: Now that's a week later. Who's Andy our understanding? It

447
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:21,520
Speaker 1: was Andy McCabe, the deputy director. So you got the

448
00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:25,680
Speaker 1: deputy director meeting with the lead investigator of the Clinton

449
00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:31,480
Speaker 1: email investigation, and miss Page, who's involved somehow, meeting in

450
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:35,840
Speaker 1: Andy's office discussing taken out an insurance policy to make

451
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:38,639
Speaker 1: sure Donald Trump doesn't come president. Did you is that

452
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:42,480
Speaker 1: what you're telling us. I'll be clear, I can't speak

453
00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 1: to whether McCabe Mr McCabe was there or not. Asked

454
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:48,520
Speaker 1: Mr McCabe, we did, he said he was not. He

455
00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:53,520
Speaker 1: did not recall. So so I want you to reopen

456
00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:56,439
Speaker 1: this investigation and come back and tell us do you

457
00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:59,760
Speaker 1: believe Strock or do you believe McCabe, because you just

458
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:02,200
Speaker 1: tell on me. The Deputy director of the FBI says

459
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:06,119
Speaker 1: he's not the Andy. Oh he doesn't. Just to be clear,

460
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:10,480
Speaker 1: if they're talking about what a conversation in his office,

461
00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:13,399
Speaker 1: he's claiming he is saving, he does not recall whether

462
00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:16,960
Speaker 1: he was there or not, and neither of those individuals

463
00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:18,919
Speaker 1: are putting him in the middle of their conversation. All

464
00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:21,960
Speaker 1: I'm saying is that the Andy's office where this occurred,

465
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:25,159
Speaker 1: he wasn't there. What did Strock? Did? Struck say he

466
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:28,040
Speaker 1: was there? Struck says he was there. Well, somebody's lyne

467
00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:32,239
Speaker 1: So anyway, we'll figure that out later. None of this

468
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:36,080
Speaker 1: is normal, folks. Uh, Let's let's look at the actual

469
00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:40,240
Speaker 1: interview itself. How many people were involved in the Clinton

470
00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:44,120
Speaker 1: interview on July of the second. There were um, I

471
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:47,440
Speaker 1: believe six or eight people present, but two agents conducting

472
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:49,840
Speaker 1: the interview. So as I understand that there were two

473
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:54,480
Speaker 1: agents and two prosecutors. Correct, Okay, Now, this was an

474
00:28:54,480 --> 00:29:01,640
Speaker 1: email sent in February from Page to McCay. Hey, you've

475
00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:05,240
Speaker 1: surely already considered this, but in my view, our best

476
00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:08,600
Speaker 1: reason to hold the line at two and two, two

477
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:13,000
Speaker 1: agents and two prosecutors is she might be our next president.

478
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:16,880
Speaker 1: How did you feel about that? We were concerned about it,

479
00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:19,240
Speaker 1: and we lay it at layout here why we were Okay,

480
00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:22,680
Speaker 1: let's keep talking about this interview. One of the FBI

481
00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:27,440
Speaker 1: agents in the interview said on election day to another

482
00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:33,360
Speaker 1: FBI agent, you should know that I'm with her. Now

483
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:36,800
Speaker 1: her was Clinton? Right, how do you feel about that?

484
00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:42,400
Speaker 1: Very concerned? Okay, e bitually, very concerned gets to be

485
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:48,960
Speaker 1: enough already. I'm very concerned. You know, I'm one. I'm

486
00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:51,720
Speaker 1: glad I don't text an email. That's one thing I'm

487
00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:54,560
Speaker 1: glad I don't do. But circumstance. Have you ever proved

488
00:29:54,560 --> 00:30:01,360
Speaker 1: the case but circumstantial evidence? Director Ray? Yes? Well, I'm

489
00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:03,600
Speaker 1: gonna write your letter and talk about why you should

490
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:06,400
Speaker 1: reconsider your findings as to whether or not it affected

491
00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:10,880
Speaker 1: the investigation. Here's what MS Page Mr ms Paige said

492
00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:15,400
Speaker 1: on March the fourth, God Trump is a loth loth

493
00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:20,440
Speaker 1: lowsome human. How you feel about that. I mean, she's

494
00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:23,960
Speaker 1: entitled her opinion. I think we've laid out here why

495
00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:25,840
Speaker 1: we were so concerned about it. Well, when you add

496
00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:31,160
Speaker 1: it all up as early as March, these people hated

497
00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:36,000
Speaker 1: Trump and this investigation was anything but by the book.

498
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:39,560
Speaker 1: And at the end of the day, what Comy did

499
00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:42,720
Speaker 1: just blows me away as much as it does y'all.

500
00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:48,080
Speaker 1: And I can't believe that this happened to my FBI.

501
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:54,800
Speaker 1: I told you the story Mr. A director A about

502
00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:57,600
Speaker 1: wanting to be part of the organization, and y'all we're

503
00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:00,800
Speaker 1: smart enough not to take me. The bottom line is,

504
00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:03,400
Speaker 1: if you're on our side the aisle, this really does

505
00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:08,520
Speaker 1: hit you hard and we can't just write it off.

506
00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:11,800
Speaker 1: I think there was a lot of bias that did

507
00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:15,840
Speaker 1: affect an investigation that is to me almost impossible to

508
00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:20,120
Speaker 1: explain using any standard that I grew up with as

509
00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:24,120
Speaker 1: a prosecutor or even as a defense attorney. This is

510
00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:29,040
Speaker 1: struck the page on October. Trump is an effing idiot.

511
00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:33,840
Speaker 1: The bottom line is, I'm glad you found what you found,

512
00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:39,200
Speaker 1: Mr Howarts. I'm not buying that the Clinton email investigation

513
00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:41,000
Speaker 1: was on the up and up. And the reason I'm

514
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:45,360
Speaker 1: not buying it discussed the two people intimately involved, one

515
00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:49,480
Speaker 1: the guy that the lead investigator clearly did not want

516
00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:53,640
Speaker 1: to see Donald Trump become president of the United States. Finally,

517
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:57,760
Speaker 1: do you agree with me that finding her liabel criminally

518
00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:03,560
Speaker 1: would be inconsistent was stopping Donald Trump? If they found

519
00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:07,440
Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton was criminally liable, that paves the way for

520
00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:11,600
Speaker 1: Donald Trump. Can you put those two things together? I

521
00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:16,360
Speaker 1: guess it would depend when, but yes, for the convention

522
00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:21,960
Speaker 1: clearly could conceivably, well not only clearly conceivably That's exactly

523
00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:25,920
Speaker 1: what's happening here, folks. You cannot hold her criminally liable

524
00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:31,040
Speaker 1: and stop him. As to the law, why did they

525
00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:37,080
Speaker 1: change gross negligence in the original statement, Director Ray too

526
00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:42,200
Speaker 1: reckless disregard? I think I would defer the Inspector General

527
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:46,880
Speaker 1: who looked into that. Why did they do that? Um it?

528
00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:51,760
Speaker 1: The explanation was that can I just suggest something gross

529
00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:56,320
Speaker 1: negligent is a criminally liable standard? Correct? So if they

530
00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:58,920
Speaker 1: had said it the way they originally wrote. Come back

531
00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:02,800
Speaker 1: to this, um, all of this, what you just heard

532
00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:06,200
Speaker 1: is familiar to you, because this is what we've covered,

533
00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 1: and this is what we have highlighted, and this is

534
00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:16,400
Speaker 1: what is so transparent and obvious. They fixed the investigation

535
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:21,239
Speaker 1: to get Hillary, a guilty party, off the hook and

536
00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:25,720
Speaker 1: hurt Donald Trump. It's there's no there's no debate any

537
00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:29,520
Speaker 1: longer on it. The Committee has yet to receive the

538
00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:35,280
Speaker 1: two non public sections of the report. One is classified,

539
00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:41,120
Speaker 1: the others described as quote unquote law enforcements sensitive. I

540
00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:44,800
Speaker 1: would appreciate if both of the witnesses here today would

541
00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:48,920
Speaker 1: work to ensure the committee received these as soon as possible.

542
00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:54,600
Speaker 1: The Committee also invited former Attorney General Lynch, former FEE

543
00:33:54,680 --> 00:34:00,480
Speaker 1: director Callmey, and former Director McCabe Deputy Director McCabe to

544
00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:05,480
Speaker 1: testify today. Mr McCabe's lawyer wrote that his client would

545
00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:08,640
Speaker 1: rely on his Fifth Amendment right against self incrimin asan

546
00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:14,160
Speaker 1: to avoid answering any questions here today. Mr Comey's attorney

547
00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:17,319
Speaker 1: tells us he's out of the country, although I saw

548
00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:23,560
Speaker 1: he was in Iowa over the weekend. According to his

549
00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:27,600
Speaker 1: Twitter feed, he seems to be having a wonderful time.

550
00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:31,600
Speaker 1: This is the second time since he was fired that

551
00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:36,759
Speaker 1: Mr Comey refused an invitation to testify here voluntarily. He

552
00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:41,960
Speaker 1: has time for book tours and television interviews, but apparently

553
00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:46,400
Speaker 1: no time to assist this committee, which has primary jurisdiction

554
00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:50,640
Speaker 1: over the Justice Department. Miss Lynch also chose not to

555
00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:55,000
Speaker 1: show up. The need for transparency does not end when

556
00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:59,000
Speaker 1: senior officials are fired or quit. Okay, So the head

557
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:02,479
Speaker 1: guy look and at Clinton on August the eight says

558
00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:06,520
Speaker 1: we gotta stop Trump. Now? Did was that just idle talk?

559
00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:09,480
Speaker 1: A week later, here's what they say to each other

560
00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:14,000
Speaker 1: stroke text Messrs Lisa Page. I want to believe the

561
00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:18,040
Speaker 1: path you throughout consideration in Andy's office that there's no

562
00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:21,239
Speaker 1: way he gets elected. But I'm afraid we can't take

563
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:25,160
Speaker 1: that risk. It's like an insurance policy and the unlikely

564
00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:29,719
Speaker 1: event you die before your forty. Now that's a week later.

565
00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:34,680
Speaker 1: Who's Andy our understanding? It was Andy McCabe, the deputy director.

566
00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:39,279
Speaker 1: So you got the deputy director meeting with the lead

567
00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:44,640
Speaker 1: investigator of the Clinton email investigation and Ms Page, who's

568
00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:49,399
Speaker 1: involved somehow, meeting in Andy's office discussing taken out an

569
00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:52,800
Speaker 1: insurance policy to make sure Donald Trump doesn't become president.

570
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:57,000
Speaker 1: Did you is that what you're telling us. I'll be clear,

571
00:35:57,040 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 1: I can't speak to whether McCabe. Mr McCabe was there

572
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:03,279
Speaker 1: or not. Asked Mr mca we did, he said he

573
00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:08,080
Speaker 1: was not. He did not recall. So so I want

574
00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:10,600
Speaker 1: you to reopen this investigation and come back and tell

575
00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:14,280
Speaker 1: us do you believe Strock or do you believe McKay

576
00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:16,520
Speaker 1: because you just told me the Deputy director of the

577
00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:20,719
Speaker 1: FBI says he's not the Andy. Oh, he doesn't. Just

578
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:24,440
Speaker 1: to be clear, if they're talking about what a conversation

579
00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:27,759
Speaker 1: in his office, he's claiming he is saving, he does

580
00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:30,880
Speaker 1: not recall whether he was there or not, and neither

581
00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:33,279
Speaker 1: of those individuals are putting him in the middle of

582
00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:36,240
Speaker 1: their conversation. All I'm saying is that the Andy's office

583
00:36:36,280 --> 00:36:39,640
Speaker 1: where this occurred, he wasn't there. What did Strock? Did

584
00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:42,319
Speaker 1: Strock say he was there? Struck says he was there? Well,

585
00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:47,759
Speaker 1: somebody's line, So anyway, we'll figure that out later, all right?

586
00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:50,239
Speaker 1: That of course, from the hearings they're still ongoing even

587
00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:52,680
Speaker 1: as we speak. We're pulling it all together for you.

588
00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:56,400
Speaker 1: The I G the Inspector General for the d o J.

589
00:36:56,719 --> 00:37:00,520
Speaker 1: That would be uh, Michael Harowitz, and also the FBI

590
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:05,840
Speaker 1: director ray or in Hatch ripped the FBI director, accusing

591
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:08,560
Speaker 1: him of trying to minimize all these issues at the FBI.

592
00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:11,200
Speaker 1: I'd have to say, I actually agree with that. And

593
00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:16,080
Speaker 1: Lindsey Graham basically affirming everything that we have uncovered and

594
00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:20,520
Speaker 1: said to you repeatedly that had taken place. And you know,

595
00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:23,600
Speaker 1: it's interesting to watch Horowitz putting emphasis on the fact

596
00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:27,360
Speaker 1: that the report focuses on key events and did not

597
00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:32,040
Speaker 1: investigate the decisions that were made. Okay, so then what's

598
00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:34,359
Speaker 1: the point. And then we see that it's not just

599
00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:38,480
Speaker 1: Struck in page and and Comey and McKay, but you

600
00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:42,840
Speaker 1: know five other there's five people total involved in having

601
00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:48,280
Speaker 1: an open hostility towards then candidate Trump and openly supporting

602
00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:51,400
Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton. And I don't think anybody can walk away

603
00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:54,359
Speaker 1: from all of this information and conclude anything other than

604
00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:58,799
Speaker 1: they rigged the investigation in Hillary Clinton's favor and that

605
00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:02,040
Speaker 1: they had nothing but pure hostility towards Donald Trump. Nor

606
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:05,680
Speaker 1: can you can you dismiss the double standard in the

607
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:08,880
Speaker 1: and the handle, you know, the white glove treatment for

608
00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:12,279
Speaker 1: Hillary and then Donald Trump gets the book thrown at him,

609
00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:16,439
Speaker 1: and every aggressive prosecutorial tactic that they can think of

610
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:20,920
Speaker 1: is being used to hurt him, both then as well

611
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:24,239
Speaker 1: candidate and then president elect and now as president. When

612
00:38:24,280 --> 00:38:27,680
Speaker 1: you compare it to the Russian investigation, New King ridges

613
00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:29,600
Speaker 1: with us. He has another best selling book. It just

614
00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:32,400
Speaker 1: hit bookstores. It's called Trump's America, The Truth about Our

615
00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:35,279
Speaker 1: Nation's Great Comeback. And he will be by the way

616
00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:38,920
Speaker 1: Barnes and Noble in Ashbourne, Virginia tonight at seven o'clock.

617
00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:42,600
Speaker 1: He's given a speech in a book signing there, Mr speaker,

618
00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:45,960
Speaker 1: welcome back. And I think it's obvious that from the

619
00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:49,640
Speaker 1: very beginning, listening to the hearings today, everything that we said,

620
00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:52,920
Speaker 1: everything that we told people, everything we investigated and reported,

621
00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:55,840
Speaker 1: has now been proven true. What do you make of

622
00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:59,640
Speaker 1: it in light of the IG report. Well, first, first

623
00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:02,640
Speaker 1: of all, you're right, uh, And if they gave out

624
00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:06,680
Speaker 1: Pulitzer Prizes for talk show hosts, you would be earning

625
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:11,319
Speaker 1: one for the most accurate and insightful coverage of this

626
00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:15,880
Speaker 1: entire national scandal, by the way, for three or four years.

627
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:19,640
Speaker 1: It's it's horrible, and I wish I was wrong, but

628
00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:24,200
Speaker 1: they literally treated her that they gave her special treatment

629
00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:29,200
Speaker 1: where anybody else in America would be indicted. That's not

630
00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:34,680
Speaker 1: equal justice under the law or equal application of our laws. No,

631
00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:38,200
Speaker 1: And I think you have got to look carefully and

632
00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:42,520
Speaker 1: at the depth of what we're dealing with here. I

633
00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:45,200
Speaker 1: suspect that the length of time it took to get

634
00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:49,400
Speaker 1: the Inspector General's report out was because Rosenstein and others

635
00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:54,000
Speaker 1: were pressuring the Inspector General to tone down the report.

636
00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:56,720
Speaker 1: And this, I mean, this is a tunnel down version

637
00:39:57,040 --> 00:40:00,160
Speaker 1: in which he carefully states facts that they could can

638
00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:04,520
Speaker 1: get him to fudge on, but he doesn't draw any conclusions.

639
00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:07,719
Speaker 1: So as I as I understand it, You know, as

640
00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:10,440
Speaker 1: he has one guy who I think is unnamed, who says,

641
00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:15,000
Speaker 1: Viva Love resistance after Trump wins, as you point out,

642
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:17,759
Speaker 1: he as struck saying, you know, we're gonna guarantee he

643
00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:20,880
Speaker 1: never gets to the White House. You have struct saying

644
00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:26,080
Speaker 1: the president personally wants to get briefed on the meaning Obama.

645
00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:28,960
Speaker 1: Now you go through those things and you think to yourself,

646
00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:33,000
Speaker 1: I mean, how much clearer does it have to get? Uh?

647
00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:36,000
Speaker 1: And what you have, of course is a desperate effort

648
00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:40,200
Speaker 1: by the deep state to protect itself from what's going

649
00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:44,520
Speaker 1: to be an increasingly angry country. There's there's one topic

650
00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:47,479
Speaker 1: I'd like to drill down on and then hopefully get

651
00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:51,719
Speaker 1: either grassly or good lads to really dig into, and

652
00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:55,959
Speaker 1: that is to find the series of documents that led

653
00:40:56,000 --> 00:41:00,160
Speaker 1: them to give immunity to the guy who you is

654
00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:04,160
Speaker 1: the hammer on the cell phones and use bleach bit

655
00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:08,040
Speaker 1: on the hard drives. And why did he get immunity?

656
00:41:08,080 --> 00:41:10,400
Speaker 1: I mean, I think just getting us to understand in

657
00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:16,560
Speaker 1: that one fixed case, how could they possibly conclude that

658
00:41:16,560 --> 00:41:20,120
Speaker 1: that was not willful destruction of evidence and a deliberate

659
00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:23,480
Speaker 1: effort to protect Hillary in violation of the law. And

660
00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:26,360
Speaker 1: I think that's the kind of thing is we keep remember,

661
00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:28,879
Speaker 1: even saying that for six or eight months, they're gonna

662
00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:31,279
Speaker 1: keep peeling back the onion. You're gonna see more and

663
00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:34,399
Speaker 1: more things unraveled. Uh, and each one's gonna lead to

664
00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:36,920
Speaker 1: something else. Uh. And I think that this is going

665
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:40,279
Speaker 1: to become and you heard it again just now. Uh.

666
00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:45,279
Speaker 1: With with Lindsey Graham, he's basically frustrated because there's still

667
00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:48,960
Speaker 1: hiding stuff. You know, look look at all the other

668
00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:52,840
Speaker 1: agents this isn't struck in page. You know, one agent

669
00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:57,239
Speaker 1: adamant the fix was in another agent laughing that Hillary's

670
00:41:57,280 --> 00:42:00,000
Speaker 1: I t guide light his ass off in the inner

671
00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:03,719
Speaker 1: view with him. Uh, screw you, Trump, another agent. I'm

672
00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:05,920
Speaker 1: going to be walking around with both my guns and

673
00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:09,200
Speaker 1: likely quitting on the spot if if Donald Trump wins,

674
00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:11,799
Speaker 1: I mean, and it goes on from there, I mean,

675
00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:15,680
Speaker 1: it goes on and on and on. Well, remember that

676
00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:21,120
Speaker 1: among political contributions in two thousand and sixteen, ninety seven

677
00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:26,640
Speaker 1: percent of the Justice Department donations went to Hillary Clinton.

678
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:31,280
Speaker 1: And remember this also extends into the munal investigation because

679
00:42:31,320 --> 00:42:34,440
Speaker 1: one of his top his most aggressive lawyer, was at

680
00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:38,120
Speaker 1: Hillary's victory party, which turned out not to work very well,

681
00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:40,880
Speaker 1: but he was there that night. That's Andrew Wiseman. And

682
00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:43,440
Speaker 1: then you have Jeanie Ray, who worked on the Clinton Foundation,

683
00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:46,399
Speaker 1: and then you have you know, you don't have equal

684
00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:50,959
Speaker 1: application under the law, Mr Speaker. That's a problem in America. Well,

685
00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:52,800
Speaker 1: and I think it's something we've got to keep digging

686
00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:57,560
Speaker 1: into and tearing apart, uh and and and forcing more

687
00:42:57,560 --> 00:43:01,280
Speaker 1: and more facts to come to the surface. And then people,

688
00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:04,359
Speaker 1: I think will gradually have to render judgment. But I

689
00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:07,400
Speaker 1: think I think the presidents involved, I think the attorneys

690
00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:09,799
Speaker 1: general was involved. It's quite clear the head of the

691
00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:12,760
Speaker 1: FBI was involved. Uh. And it's clear that it reached

692
00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:15,759
Speaker 1: down into the very senior ranks. Uh. And again, out

693
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:18,600
Speaker 1: of the thousands of FBI agents, we're talking about a

694
00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:22,799
Speaker 1: handful who were clearly doing things that that are I

695
00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:26,480
Speaker 1: think frightening. I mean this, this is not just There

696
00:43:26,520 --> 00:43:29,120
Speaker 1: have always been problems, and you always have a danger

697
00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:34,000
Speaker 1: of police scholars being used inappropriately. But when you get

698
00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:37,279
Speaker 1: to the highest level of American system and a new

699
00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:45,879
Speaker 1: president can be explicitly being undermined and potentially destroyed by

700
00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:49,760
Speaker 1: the police power of the state, that's really sobering about

701
00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:52,920
Speaker 1: how sick the system has gotten. You know, you even

702
00:43:53,040 --> 00:43:57,160
Speaker 1: have the lead investigator, we learned in this report not struck,

703
00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:01,399
Speaker 1: but the lead investigator calling Hill, very president, I'm done

704
00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:04,160
Speaker 1: interviewing the president. This is when they finally interviewed Hillary,

705
00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:08,279
Speaker 1: just three days before they exonerated her. But the exoneration

706
00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:12,719
Speaker 1: letter was written in May. This is July. Quote, you

707
00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:17,040
Speaker 1: interviewed the president, you know, Hillary Rodham Clinton future president

708
00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:22,160
Speaker 1: Trump can't win. Demographics don't line up America's changed, and

709
00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:24,160
Speaker 1: and that's how they viewed it. And they also there

710
00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:27,120
Speaker 1: was the one exchange between Struck and Page beyond calling

711
00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:30,959
Speaker 1: Trump loathsome and every name they can think of, where

712
00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:32,480
Speaker 1: they said, well, you don't want to piss her off

713
00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:35,200
Speaker 1: when you interview a go in there with kid gloves on,

714
00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:38,960
Speaker 1: you know, don't go in there ready, you know, ready

715
00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:41,799
Speaker 1: to go for bear here yea. And then look, that's

716
00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:44,800
Speaker 1: an important thing for people to remember. Um, the Clintons

717
00:44:44,840 --> 00:44:48,640
Speaker 1: have a long histe being vindictive, uh and and being

718
00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:54,480
Speaker 1: very very tough. And everybody in the Justice Department, everybody

719
00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:58,239
Speaker 1: assumed Hillary was the next president. So they're dealing with

720
00:44:58,280 --> 00:45:00,399
Speaker 1: this thing. I mean, she's doing the things that are

721
00:45:00,440 --> 00:45:05,160
Speaker 1: so obviously not just absurdly breaking the law. If you

722
00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:07,040
Speaker 1: go back and look at some of those early press

723
00:45:07,080 --> 00:45:09,800
Speaker 1: conferences where she talks about she doesn't know what bleach

724
00:45:09,880 --> 00:45:12,760
Speaker 1: bit is and is that something you use in the kitchen?

725
00:45:13,239 --> 00:45:17,080
Speaker 1: And she so a whole bunch of seemingly cute comments

726
00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:21,279
Speaker 1: which are actually I think indications of how really over

727
00:45:21,320 --> 00:45:26,560
Speaker 1: the top she's gotten in thinking she can get away. Yeah, well,

728
00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:31,360
Speaker 1: look there's a certain arrogance there that nobody can can deny.

729
00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:34,319
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, at this point, I mean, I

730
00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:37,279
Speaker 1: don't think there's any other option here. Where where is

731
00:45:38,040 --> 00:45:42,719
Speaker 1: Jeff Sessions? Where's the special prosecutor to probe? How his

732
00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:47,120
Speaker 1: Department of Justice? Now? How his FBI? I mean I

733
00:45:47,200 --> 00:45:50,120
Speaker 1: found Director Ray and I agree with him. I mean

734
00:45:50,200 --> 00:45:52,160
Speaker 1: he he went out and he defended all the good

735
00:45:52,160 --> 00:45:54,400
Speaker 1: work that the FBI does. And I've always said this

736
00:45:54,480 --> 00:45:56,480
Speaker 1: is in the rank and file. I think actually the

737
00:45:56,560 --> 00:45:59,279
Speaker 1: rank and file will be the heroes here. But there's

738
00:45:59,320 --> 00:46:02,200
Speaker 1: such an abuse of power in all of this, and

739
00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:05,120
Speaker 1: the idea that Peter Struck that's now the leading one

740
00:46:05,120 --> 00:46:07,560
Speaker 1: of the top guys of the human resources at the FBI,

741
00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:10,480
Speaker 1: because he hasn't lost his job, that they're gonna retrain

742
00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:13,600
Speaker 1: people is somehow The answer is in the answer. They

743
00:46:13,640 --> 00:46:16,680
Speaker 1: literally helped fix up that they helped ringing investigation, a

744
00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:21,040
Speaker 1: presidential investigation, to support one candidate who should have been

745
00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:24,920
Speaker 1: indicted and then hurt anyway they could another candidate. And

746
00:46:24,920 --> 00:46:26,759
Speaker 1: then that raises questions, what do we do with the

747
00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:31,239
Speaker 1: Mueller probe? Oh, well, let's go through separate, separate. First

748
00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:34,759
Speaker 1: of all, they should go through and fire all the

749
00:46:34,840 --> 00:46:37,960
Speaker 1: people who are engaged in doing things that were illegal,

750
00:46:38,280 --> 00:46:42,279
Speaker 1: are totally inappropriate. They should be gone. Second, and some

751
00:46:42,320 --> 00:46:48,439
Speaker 1: of those I think are obviously gonna face various criminal charges. Second. Um,

752
00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:51,080
Speaker 1: the number one job of the FBI and the Justice

753
00:46:51,080 --> 00:46:53,720
Speaker 1: found right now should be cleaning up its own house.

754
00:46:54,600 --> 00:46:57,200
Speaker 1: So I'm glad they do lots of good things. I

755
00:46:57,280 --> 00:46:59,359
Speaker 1: agree with you, they do lots of good things. That's

756
00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:01,680
Speaker 1: not the number job of the new director. The number

757
00:47:01,680 --> 00:47:04,000
Speaker 1: one job of the new director is getting at the

758
00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:09,120
Speaker 1: truth about what happened, how did it happen, who did it,

759
00:47:10,239 --> 00:47:13,480
Speaker 1: and what do we need to do to clean it up. Remember,

760
00:47:13,560 --> 00:47:18,080
Speaker 1: this was about stopping Trump. The words were said, no, no,

761
00:47:18,200 --> 00:47:21,560
Speaker 1: was he gonna He's never gonna become president? Right, No, no,

762
00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:25,920
Speaker 1: we'll stop it, and then we have an insurance policy.

763
00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:30,800
Speaker 1: Remember it's also about saving Hillary. Well that's stopping Trump

764
00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:33,680
Speaker 1: by saving Hillary in the first place, right, I'm not

765
00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:36,320
Speaker 1: saying So they have two things going on in their heads.

766
00:47:36,600 --> 00:47:38,759
Speaker 1: They're gonna save Hillary because she's going to be the

767
00:47:38,800 --> 00:47:42,279
Speaker 1: next president, and they're gonna stop Trump because he's too

768
00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:46,440
Speaker 1: horrible to contemplate. And they're working both sides of the street.

769
00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:49,960
Speaker 1: So Hillary people can get away with anything and do

770
00:47:50,320 --> 00:47:53,840
Speaker 1: I mean it, It is astonishing what they refuse to

771
00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:57,040
Speaker 1: investigate when it comes down to everything she'd been doing

772
00:47:57,320 --> 00:48:00,279
Speaker 1: and her staff had been doing. We'll take a gotta

00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:42,240
Speaker 1: to the book and are you're gonna be talking about

788
00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:46,080
Speaker 1: this tonight? Well, look at it's been a great reaction

789
00:48:46,120 --> 00:48:48,560
Speaker 1: of the book. The first half talks about what we

790
00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:52,240
Speaker 1: have accomplished. The second hast talks about the great challenges ahead.

791
00:48:52,840 --> 00:48:55,080
Speaker 1: UM has a strong chapter on space, and I know

792
00:48:55,239 --> 00:48:58,040
Speaker 1: today that the President indicated we're gonna set up a

793
00:48:58,080 --> 00:49:02,719
Speaker 1: brand new space organization that what we designed to give

794
00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:06,040
Speaker 1: us absolute leadership in space in terms of military and

795
00:49:06,160 --> 00:49:08,759
Speaker 1: national security. So I think there's a lot of the

796
00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:11,000
Speaker 1: people have read the book. Many of them have said,

797

Speaker 1: maybe I've got a break. Listen, you're welcome to state.

00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:32,240
Speaker 1: think HRC is gonna win, right, You think we should

804
00:49:32,239 --> 00:49:34,839
Speaker 1: get some nails and boards in case she doesn't. Same

805
00:49:34,960 --> 00:49:38,680
Speaker 1: day FBI Agent five, she better win. Otherwise I'm gonna

806
00:49:38,680 --> 00:49:41,560
Speaker 1: be walking around with both of my guns day after

807
00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:45,440
Speaker 1: the election. I'm leven nine, two thousand sixteen. FBI attorney too.

808
00:49:45,600 --> 00:49:49,080
Speaker 1: I am numb. FBI attorney two later same day. I

809
00:49:49,120 --> 00:49:52,319
Speaker 1: am so stressed about what I could have done differently

810
00:49:53,440 --> 00:49:57,359
Speaker 1: last one day after the election, FBI Attorney two. I

811
00:49:57,480 --> 00:50:01,719
Speaker 1: just can't imagine the systematic this assembly of the progress

812
00:50:01,840 --> 00:50:05,080
Speaker 1: we have made over the last eight years the Affordable

813
00:50:05,080 --> 00:50:07,920
Speaker 1: Care Act has gone. Who knows that the rhetoric about

814
00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:12,160
Speaker 1: deporting people, walls and crap is true? Honestly feel like

815
00:50:12,239 --> 00:50:16,480
Speaker 1: there's going to be a lot more gunny issues too general.

816
00:50:17,360 --> 00:50:21,400
Speaker 1: Do you believe in the two ferry? Do you believe

817
00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:28,000
Speaker 1: in the easter Bunny? Do you believe do you honestly

818
00:50:28,080 --> 00:50:31,200
Speaker 1: believe that the American people are going to look at

819
00:50:31,200 --> 00:50:34,160
Speaker 1: this report and look at those emails and not believe

820
00:50:34,239 --> 00:50:38,520
Speaker 1: that there was bias and people acting on bias and

821
00:50:38,560 --> 00:50:41,880
Speaker 1: that the fix was in at the FBI. I completely

822
00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:46,160
Speaker 1: understand the concerned Senator, and that's why we've laid all

823
00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:49,400
Speaker 1: this out here, and that's why we found that it

824
00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:53,920
Speaker 1: impacts the credibility of the handling of the investigation and

825
00:50:54,440 --> 00:50:58,800
Speaker 1: the the what we say here is not as Senator Crapo.

826
00:50:58,960 --> 00:51:02,520
Speaker 1: Crapo mentioned, which is that there was no bias, but

827
00:51:02,719 --> 00:51:05,000
Speaker 1: rather what we were asked to look at was whether

828
00:51:05,040 --> 00:51:10,800
Speaker 1: the specific decisions we reviewed were affected by bias. How

829
00:51:10,840 --> 00:51:16,520
Speaker 1: can you conclude anything else because the bias was pervasive

830
00:51:17,360 --> 00:51:22,200
Speaker 1: all through the investigation at the highest level of investigators

831
00:51:22,200 --> 00:51:24,759
Speaker 1: in this case. You know the people that I can't

832
00:51:24,800 --> 00:51:27,040
Speaker 1: wait to hear from the rank and file that are

833
00:51:27,160 --> 00:51:31,120
Speaker 1: just disgusted at how all of this was handled. Twenty

834
00:51:31,200 --> 00:51:32,919
Speaker 1: four now until the top of the hour. Glad you're

835
00:51:32,960 --> 00:51:36,120
Speaker 1: with us eight nine one, Shawn toll free telephone number.

836
00:51:36,600 --> 00:51:38,880
Speaker 1: We're gonna get to your calls here. New Gingrich is

837
00:51:38,920 --> 00:51:42,760
Speaker 1: with us. Brand new book is out bestseller already. Trump's America,

838
00:51:42,880 --> 00:51:45,840
Speaker 1: The Truth about our Nation's Great Comeback. He's going to

839
00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:49,200
Speaker 1: be at the Barnes and Nobles speaking and signing tonight

840
00:51:49,280 --> 00:51:52,640
Speaker 1: in Ashbourne, Virginia. It's up by my website if you

841
00:51:52,680 --> 00:51:55,799
Speaker 1: want the exact location. Hannity dot Com. I listened to

842
00:51:55,840 --> 00:51:58,759
Speaker 1: that and I listen. You know, Ray is very It's

843
00:51:58,760 --> 00:52:00,799
Speaker 1: almost like he's being clever. On the one hand, he's

844
00:52:00,800 --> 00:52:05,760
Speaker 1: saying that, oh, there's no political bias that we found

845
00:52:06,600 --> 00:52:12,880
Speaker 1: impacting the decision, but his entire report exposes political bias

846
00:52:13,440 --> 00:52:18,759
Speaker 1: at the highest levels, and it is rampant. You know

847
00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:24,000
Speaker 1: what I'm struck by is if you're a prosecutor. You

848
00:52:24,120 --> 00:52:27,480
Speaker 1: take the data we already have, and you know the

849
00:52:27,520 --> 00:52:30,520
Speaker 1: case you're going to present to the jury. If you're

850
00:52:30,520 --> 00:52:34,000
Speaker 1: a defense lawyer, you take the case we have, and

851
00:52:34,080 --> 00:52:35,839
Speaker 1: you know you're going to present to the jury. Once

852
00:52:35,880 --> 00:52:38,840
Speaker 1: you get out of the top guys at the Justice Department,

853
00:52:39,040 --> 00:52:42,560
Speaker 1: our defense lawyers, they're saying to us, well, maybe they

854
00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:45,359
Speaker 1: said all these crazy things, Maybe they behaved all these

855
00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:48,879
Speaker 1: crazy ways. Maybe they were really too soft on Hillary,

856
00:52:49,040 --> 00:52:52,080
Speaker 1: maybe they've been too aggressive on Trump. But after all,

857
00:52:52,520 --> 00:52:55,799
Speaker 1: we can't look into their hearts, so we really can't

858
00:52:55,840 --> 00:52:58,880
Speaker 1: tell you. I mean that this is crazy and no

859
00:52:59,120 --> 00:53:04,000
Speaker 1: reasonable for I think can believe that this is in

860
00:53:04,080 --> 00:53:07,680
Speaker 1: fact an acceptable way to do things. And I really

861
00:53:07,719 --> 00:53:12,680
Speaker 1: do think that Attorney General Sessions at some point um

862
00:53:12,920 --> 00:53:15,600
Speaker 1: has to seize control of this. I mean, it is

863
00:53:15,640 --> 00:53:19,360
Speaker 1: an embarrassment. And again, I'm sure that Mr Ray is

864
00:53:19,360 --> 00:53:22,720
Speaker 1: doing everything he can to clean up the the FBI,

865
00:53:22,760 --> 00:53:25,560
Speaker 1: at least at his image. But he's not doing everything

866
00:53:25,560 --> 00:53:28,080
Speaker 1: he can to clean up the FBI. He's not faring

867
00:53:28,080 --> 00:53:31,640
Speaker 1: the people, he's not cooperating with Congress, he's not making

868
00:53:31,680 --> 00:53:34,520
Speaker 1: sure the information gets to the House and Center members

869
00:53:35,000 --> 00:53:37,200
Speaker 1: uh and to the American people who deserve, you know,

870
00:53:37,320 --> 00:53:41,279
Speaker 1: to to know exactly what was going on. We're gonna

871
00:53:41,320 --> 00:53:44,319
Speaker 1: take calls for the speaker will start in Orlando our

872
00:53:44,360 --> 00:53:48,200
Speaker 1: affiliate down there News Radio five. Jeff is in Orlando,

873
00:53:48,280 --> 00:53:50,319
Speaker 1: Jeff High. How are you glad you called your own

874
00:53:50,360 --> 00:53:53,560
Speaker 1: with new Ingrid? How what's going on? How good? How

875
00:53:53,640 --> 00:53:57,080
Speaker 1: are you guys? Good? Sir good? I wanted to ask

876
00:53:57,239 --> 00:54:01,160
Speaker 1: Mr Speaker that he believed that Trump has really exposed

877
00:54:01,200 --> 00:54:04,000
Speaker 1: that both parties are really a bunch of people that

878
00:54:04,040 --> 00:54:07,239
Speaker 1: are all in the same club, and they keep their

879
00:54:07,280 --> 00:54:10,919
Speaker 1: power and whatever it's best for them. If it trickles down,

880
00:54:11,239 --> 00:54:13,960
Speaker 1: that's one thing, but it's never about what's best for

881
00:54:14,040 --> 00:54:16,439
Speaker 1: us as the people. But they're all in the same

882
00:54:16,480 --> 00:54:20,040
Speaker 1: world club. One side is all liberal, one side plans

883
00:54:20,080 --> 00:54:22,680
Speaker 1: to be conservative, but both the strength welth the way

884
00:54:22,719 --> 00:54:26,520
Speaker 1: Sessions just is a no show, and now the way

885
00:54:26,640 --> 00:54:30,560
Speaker 1: Mr Galaity is changing the way he's deep because it's

886
00:54:30,600 --> 00:54:33,880
Speaker 1: messing up to big club. You know, I don't think

887
00:54:33,960 --> 00:54:37,560
Speaker 1: that's what's happening. I can appreciate your feeling that when

888
00:54:37,719 --> 00:54:42,000
Speaker 1: certainly if you look at some of the never Trump Republicans, uh,

889
00:54:42,040 --> 00:54:44,759
Speaker 1: they fit exactly your description. But if you look at that,

890
00:54:44,880 --> 00:54:49,319
Speaker 1: for example, Senator Grassley as the chairman Judiciary Committee, he

891
00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:52,680
Speaker 1: has been very firm, Congressman good Lacking Chairman of the

892
00:54:52,680 --> 00:54:56,680
Speaker 1: House Judiciary Committee, Congressman Nonez, who has shown great courage

893
00:54:56,719 --> 00:54:59,840
Speaker 1: and uh stood up when when he was under enormous pressure.

894
00:55:00,239 --> 00:55:03,200
Speaker 1: So I think it's a little more complicated than your description.

895
00:55:03,840 --> 00:55:05,759
Speaker 1: And I do think that it's fair to say that

896
00:55:05,800 --> 00:55:09,880
Speaker 1: there is um oh, there are people really trying to

897
00:55:09,920 --> 00:55:13,560
Speaker 1: get to the truth who are really troubled by this. UM.

898
00:55:14,280 --> 00:55:17,439
Speaker 1: I don't sometimes I don't fully understand what what Trey

899
00:55:17,520 --> 00:55:19,680
Speaker 1: Gaudy is saying. But but he comes out of a

900
00:55:19,719 --> 00:55:21,799
Speaker 1: background of having been a us A journey and having

901
00:55:21,800 --> 00:55:24,680
Speaker 1: been a prosecutor. Well, Coudy has taken a very just

902
00:55:24,719 --> 00:55:26,279
Speaker 1: to let you know, it's just pick, he's taken a

903
00:55:26,360 --> 00:55:29,799
Speaker 1: very very hard line as it relates to this, and

904
00:55:29,880 --> 00:55:33,759
Speaker 1: vowed over the weekend to use the full arsenal of

905
00:55:33,840 --> 00:55:38,080
Speaker 1: constitutional weapons to get the documents that have been subpoenaed

906
00:55:38,160 --> 00:55:41,399
Speaker 1: by Congress. And and finally, apparently I'm being told by

907
00:55:41,440 --> 00:55:44,800
Speaker 1: my sources that you had a meeting with Rosenstein and others.

908
00:55:44,800 --> 00:55:47,000
Speaker 1: And the Freedom Caucus deserves a lot of credit to

909
00:55:47,120 --> 00:55:50,840
Speaker 1: they're saying they're gonna start impeachment, the impeachment process if

910
00:55:51,440 --> 00:55:53,840
Speaker 1: the d o J doesn't start turning over the documents

911
00:55:53,880 --> 00:55:56,560
Speaker 1: that they have now demanded and subpoenaed for a long

912
00:55:56,600 --> 00:56:00,000
Speaker 1: time that has been obstructed. You know, I Si Gouty

913
00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:02,680
Speaker 1: on one show Sunday, and he was very tough and

914
00:56:02,920 --> 00:56:05,880
Speaker 1: very clear, uh, and I think was was sitting executive

915
00:56:05,960 --> 00:56:09,840
Speaker 1: right things. And apparently Speaker Ryan hosted a meeting where

916
00:56:09,880 --> 00:56:13,080
Speaker 1: he was also he and Gay were both extremely tough

917
00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:16,960
Speaker 1: with the administration and indicating that the House is just

918
00:56:17,040 --> 00:56:19,880
Speaker 1: not you know, the House is gonna absolutely in system

919
00:56:19,880 --> 00:56:22,800
Speaker 1: as right of oversight, which of course is sentile to

920
00:56:22,840 --> 00:56:26,920
Speaker 1: our constitutional system. And all the people worry about Donald Trump, uh,

921
00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:31,480
Speaker 1: somehow doing something inappropriate. It's a Justice Department. It's the

922
00:56:31,640 --> 00:56:35,719
Speaker 1: FBI which has been doing the things that are inappropriate. Uh.

923
00:56:35,719 --> 00:56:38,960
Speaker 1: It is the deep state and the executive branch, not

924
00:56:39,160 --> 00:56:42,600
Speaker 1: the Congress which has been the problem here. And I think, uh,

925
00:56:42,719 --> 00:56:45,040
Speaker 1: you know, you're you're getting more and more pressure. You'll

926
00:56:45,040 --> 00:56:48,000
Speaker 1: notice in the senatorians today you had the Senator Grass

927
00:56:48,040 --> 00:56:53,360
Speaker 1: and others really pushing them of one. They're gonna get

928
00:56:53,360 --> 00:56:57,360
Speaker 1: that information. They deserved to hear. I said it immediately

929
00:56:57,400 --> 00:57:00,279
Speaker 1: when I was reading it. I was in Singapore and

930
00:57:00,320 --> 00:57:02,160
Speaker 1: I was reading it. We had about an hour to

931
00:57:02,360 --> 00:57:05,160
Speaker 1: read this report before it came out, and we were

932
00:57:05,200 --> 00:57:08,080
Speaker 1: sifting through it all throughout the show. Is that this

933
00:57:08,160 --> 00:57:12,359
Speaker 1: is the swamp protecting the swamp, and Inspector General Horowitz says,

934
00:57:12,360 --> 00:57:14,400
Speaker 1: all right, well, that's not our role to second guess

935
00:57:14,480 --> 00:57:18,400
Speaker 1: the decision making and the prosecutorial decisions. But this is

936
00:57:18,480 --> 00:57:22,760
Speaker 1: just an irrefutable fact, is that no American that did

937
00:57:22,760 --> 00:57:25,840
Speaker 1: what Hillary did would have gotten away with what she

938
00:57:25,960 --> 00:57:28,800
Speaker 1: got away with. And now we know the people at

939
00:57:28,840 --> 00:57:31,640
Speaker 1: the top level of the investigation were the ones protecting her,

940
00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:34,880
Speaker 1: that had a massive political hatred for Trump and a

941
00:57:34,920 --> 00:57:38,120
Speaker 1: love for her. Well, and I only go back to

942
00:57:38,120 --> 00:57:42,360
Speaker 1: the wood may require an additional investigation, But because I

943
00:57:42,520 --> 00:57:45,200
Speaker 1: raised this earlier than show today, I think the most

944
00:57:45,280 --> 00:57:53,200
Speaker 1: interesting and impossible to explain decision was granting full immunity

945
00:57:53,320 --> 00:57:55,400
Speaker 1: to the guy who was using a hammer to break

946
00:57:55,480 --> 00:57:59,160
Speaker 1: up phones and using bleach wit to destroy the hard

947
00:57:59,240 --> 00:58:03,080
Speaker 1: drive of computer and he hits full immunity. Did you

948
00:58:03,160 --> 00:58:07,480
Speaker 1: see I really want to see the paper trail that

949
00:58:07,680 --> 00:58:11,200
Speaker 1: led to that decision. So two weeks ago, and I

950
00:58:11,240 --> 00:58:13,080
Speaker 1: don't I know, you've been busy and you've been out

951
00:58:13,080 --> 00:58:15,040
Speaker 1: on your book tours. Two weeks ago, I'm on the

952
00:58:15,080 --> 00:58:17,200
Speaker 1: television program and I say in the monologue, now, if

953
00:58:17,640 --> 00:58:20,600
Speaker 1: it was the day that Robert Mueller insisted that anybody

954
00:58:20,640 --> 00:58:24,000
Speaker 1: that he was investigating hand over their phones, and I said, well,

955
00:58:24,040 --> 00:58:28,080
Speaker 1: if if if big word. I had suggested to those

956
00:58:28,120 --> 00:58:31,680
Speaker 1: people that they might want to delete the emails and

957
00:58:31,800 --> 00:58:35,960
Speaker 1: acid washed the hard drive with bleach pit and have

958
00:58:36,120 --> 00:58:40,880
Speaker 1: an aid bust up their devices into Etsy bitsy pieces

959
00:58:40,920 --> 00:58:43,560
Speaker 1: and removed the SIM cards and hand it over to

960
00:58:43,960 --> 00:58:47,240
Speaker 1: Robert Mueller and say the words Hillary Clinton, equal justice

961
00:58:47,320 --> 00:58:50,720
Speaker 1: under the law. I said, look, I said, it's not

962
00:58:50,760 --> 00:58:52,800
Speaker 1: gonna work out well for you. It would be a

963
00:58:52,920 --> 00:58:57,800
Speaker 1: dumb idea. And I also said, uh, kidding, I don't

964
00:58:57,840 --> 00:59:00,360
Speaker 1: mean for you to do this. And the out of

965
00:59:00,800 --> 00:59:05,800
Speaker 1: outrage by the left saying that Hannity's trying to obstruct justice, well,

966
00:59:05,880 --> 00:59:07,840
Speaker 1: I said, I'd never said to do it. I was

967
00:59:08,320 --> 00:59:12,200
Speaker 1: obviously being sarcastic. And the outrage over the fact that

968
00:59:12,280 --> 00:59:15,920
Speaker 1: I might say that to somebody was I think it

969
00:59:15,960 --> 00:59:19,200
Speaker 1: illustrates how bad it is because they wanted to throw

970
00:59:19,240 --> 00:59:23,520
Speaker 1: me in jail. But what she actually had done, you know,

971
00:59:23,600 --> 00:59:26,520
Speaker 1: and it does make you think maybe maybe we ought

972
00:59:26,600 --> 00:59:31,720
Speaker 1: to put together to Hillary Clinton defense paper that lists

973
00:59:31,760 --> 00:59:35,240
Speaker 1: everything that she did and says, maybe this ought to

974
00:59:35,320 --> 00:59:39,280
Speaker 1: be the new standard. Well, if that's that's the point,

975
00:59:39,560 --> 00:59:42,520
Speaker 1: but that is the appointment. It clearly can't be the

976
00:59:42,520 --> 00:59:45,880
Speaker 1: new standard. It clearly was illegal, and if you're going

977
00:59:45,920 --> 00:59:48,360
Speaker 1: to have the rule of law, you can't let people

978
00:59:48,360 --> 00:59:52,720
Speaker 1: get away with this. But that is precisely what they

979
00:59:52,720 --> 00:59:57,560
Speaker 1: were doing in the Justice Department, a potential president get

980
00:59:57,560 --> 01:00:00,959
Speaker 1: away with things that were stunningly corrupting. You know, Mark

981
01:00:01,040 --> 01:00:03,280
Speaker 1: said the other day Levin the Great One, he actually

982
01:00:03,280 --> 01:00:08,120
Speaker 1: said that what happened here is much worse. There's more

983
01:00:08,160 --> 01:00:11,680
Speaker 1: interference by the FBI in our last election than was

984
01:00:11,760 --> 01:00:15,400
Speaker 1: ever that the Russians could have ever dreamed of doing.

985
01:00:15,880 --> 01:00:19,240
Speaker 1: There was election interference, and on top of it, Hillary

986
01:00:19,320 --> 01:00:23,120
Speaker 1: did pay for a Russian propaganda through funneled money through

987
01:00:23,160 --> 01:00:27,000
Speaker 1: a law firm into Fusion GPS, into a foreign national

988
01:00:27,400 --> 01:00:30,840
Speaker 1: who in an interrogatory said that as dossier, well maybe

989
01:00:30,920 --> 01:00:35,960
Speaker 1: as fifty fifty because it wasn't really vetted. Uh. Then

990
01:00:36,000 --> 01:00:39,240
Speaker 1: that became the basis of aar. Look, I think it's

991
01:00:39,280 --> 01:00:43,040
Speaker 1: clear if you look at the more we learned, had

992
01:00:43,080 --> 01:00:47,120
Speaker 1: the justice system operated in the way it should have,

993
01:00:48,120 --> 01:00:52,920
Speaker 1: she could never have become the Democratic nominee. Ever, but

994
01:00:53,080 --> 01:00:55,160
Speaker 1: she wouldn't even become the nominee. You'd have had a

995
01:00:55,160 --> 01:00:59,440
Speaker 1: wide open race for the nomination because she would have

996
01:00:59,480 --> 01:01:03,120
Speaker 1: been really driven out of politics by by the totality

997
01:01:03,200 --> 01:01:06,400
Speaker 1: of her corruption. Any other American would go to jail,

998
01:01:06,440 --> 01:01:09,560
Speaker 1: Which was my point. If you hand over your your

999
01:01:09,640 --> 01:01:12,760
Speaker 1: phones to Robert Mueller and itsy bitsy pieces, good luck

1000
01:01:12,760 --> 01:01:17,320
Speaker 1: to you. You're done, You're finished. And then but this

1001
01:01:17,360 --> 01:01:20,400
Speaker 1: tells you. Look, this tells you why the people like

1002
01:01:20,480 --> 01:01:23,320
Speaker 1: Struck were doing what they were doing. They all believe

1003
01:01:23,480 --> 01:01:26,960
Speaker 1: she would win, and they all believe the corruption would continue.

1004
01:01:27,800 --> 01:01:30,160
Speaker 1: Let's get back to our phones. Lloyd is in Columbus,

1005
01:01:30,160 --> 01:01:33,240
Speaker 1: Ohio for Speaker, former Speaker of the House, new King

1006
01:01:33,360 --> 01:01:37,320
Speaker 1: Rich Lloyd, how are you glad you called sir good

1007
01:01:37,360 --> 01:01:40,800
Speaker 1: after new Speaker and and uh, I do appreciate you

1008
01:01:40,840 --> 01:01:45,160
Speaker 1: taking the call. Um. Most of Americans, including myself, or

1009
01:01:45,920 --> 01:01:51,200
Speaker 1: feel very distant, genuine against what's happening. You've got the prosecutor,

1010
01:01:51,680 --> 01:01:56,840
Speaker 1: who's the d J in there and they are. That's

1011
01:01:56,880 --> 01:02:01,840
Speaker 1: got both people. The FBI director basically said that, you know,

1012
01:02:02,120 --> 01:02:05,440
Speaker 1: he is more concerned about the the employees, the judges,

1013
01:02:05,880 --> 01:02:08,680
Speaker 1: the prosecutors, and said of the American public, I think

1014
01:02:08,720 --> 01:02:10,960
Speaker 1: the American public is the ones that they worked for.

1015
01:02:11,400 --> 01:02:15,200
Speaker 1: American public wants the truth and we don't want politics

1016
01:02:15,840 --> 01:02:21,520
Speaker 1: in injustice. Now, look when you're you are right, and

1017
01:02:21,560 --> 01:02:25,720
Speaker 1: the fact is you can't have a justice system without justice,

1018
01:02:26,400 --> 01:02:29,040
Speaker 1: uh the whole process that you think about it for

1019
01:02:29,080 --> 01:02:31,720
Speaker 1: a second, don't tell me you care about the morale

1020
01:02:31,800 --> 01:02:34,479
Speaker 1: of your employees if that means you're gonna protect people

1021
01:02:34,480 --> 01:02:37,280
Speaker 1: who are breaking the law. I don't want people who

1022
01:02:37,280 --> 01:02:40,360
Speaker 1: are breaking the law to have high morale. I want

1023
01:02:40,400 --> 01:02:42,080
Speaker 1: them be worried. I mean, I think they should have

1024
01:02:42,440 --> 01:02:44,600
Speaker 1: the fact that the Cave is taking the Fifth Amendment

1025
01:02:44,600 --> 01:02:48,240
Speaker 1: tells or something. The fact that Comey won't even dignify

1026
01:02:48,360 --> 01:02:50,440
Speaker 1: by trying to show up. I mean, you know the

1027
01:02:50,760 --> 01:02:53,200
Speaker 1: degree to which Comy is lying to the whole country

1028
01:02:53,400 --> 01:02:55,840
Speaker 1: and and is arrogantly assuming we're all too stupid to

1029
01:02:55,880 --> 01:02:58,680
Speaker 1: know what he's doing. He's sort of bleat thinking, do

1030
01:02:58,680 --> 01:03:01,479
Speaker 1: you know what everybody says? The Clintons always get away

1031
01:03:01,480 --> 01:03:04,400
Speaker 1: with it, Mr Speaker, always, no matter the evidence could

1032
01:03:04,440 --> 01:03:08,439
Speaker 1: be overwhelming, incontrovertible, the double standard, it can't be any

1033
01:03:08,440 --> 01:03:12,720
Speaker 1: more clear, a two tier justice system, no equal application

1034
01:03:12,880 --> 01:03:17,160
Speaker 1: under the law, and the Clintons skate. I mean, from

1035
01:03:17,160 --> 01:03:21,959
Speaker 1: my from knowing what we know, she should be charged today. Yes,

1036
01:03:22,040 --> 01:03:25,320
Speaker 1: I I think she should be charged. I think her

1037
01:03:25,360 --> 01:03:28,080
Speaker 1: associates should be charged. But I have to say, at

1038
01:03:28,120 --> 01:03:31,560
Speaker 1: the risk of maybe being inappropriately a lighthearted about this.

1039
01:03:31,920 --> 01:03:34,680
Speaker 1: On the other hand, every day she and Bill have

1040
01:03:34,720 --> 01:03:38,200
Speaker 1: to look at each other realized she lost. She'll never

1041
01:03:38,280 --> 01:03:40,960
Speaker 1: be president, He'll never be back in the White House.

1042
01:03:41,400 --> 01:03:44,880
Speaker 1: It's over, and that living that out the rest of

1043
01:03:44,920 --> 01:03:47,400
Speaker 1: their life may be as great a punishment as anything

1044
01:03:47,400 --> 01:03:50,400
Speaker 1: you and I can imagine, all right. Speaker ging Rich

Speaker 1: some calls and spending a little extra time with us.

1056
01:04:23,480 --> 01:04:27,600
Speaker 1: We appreciate News round Up, Information Overload. Sean Hannity Show

1057
01:04:27,640 --> 01:04:29,800
Speaker 1: eight nine for one, Seawn, if you want to be

1058
01:04:29,880 --> 01:04:31,920
Speaker 1: a part of the program. I mean, some of these

1059
01:04:32,240 --> 01:04:36,400
Speaker 1: senators have been amazing. Um. I will say Lindsey Graham

1060
01:04:36,480 --> 01:04:40,160
Speaker 1: was amazing today. Senator Ted Cruz is now asking really

1061
01:04:40,200 --> 01:04:44,800
Speaker 1: important questions of the Inspector General Horowitz, and let's dip

1062
01:04:44,840 --> 01:04:48,080
Speaker 1: in and listen to what he's asking. That this is

1063
01:04:48,160 --> 01:04:50,800
Speaker 1: under the scope of the Special Council. This has nothing

1064
01:04:50,800 --> 01:04:52,760
Speaker 1: to do with Russia collusion or anything else. This is

1065
01:04:52,760 --> 01:04:55,880
Speaker 1: a question did did the director of the FBI perjuror

1066
01:04:55,960 --> 01:04:59,680
Speaker 1: himself to this committee that's not within Special Council Miller's

1067
01:04:59,760 --> 01:05:03,960
Speaker 1: church action? Is it whether the director of the FBI.

1068
01:05:04,760 --> 01:05:07,040
Speaker 1: I don't know what's with fully within the scope, especially

1069
01:05:07,080 --> 01:05:09,920
Speaker 1: well you're you're declining answer question because you say there's

1070
01:05:09,960 --> 01:05:13,040
Speaker 1: ongoing and I can I'm trying to understand what investigation

1071
01:05:13,680 --> 01:05:19,080
Speaker 1: arguably covers the emails demonstrating whether or not the director

1072
01:05:19,120 --> 01:05:22,960
Speaker 1: of the FBI committed perjury. And I can't answer that

1073
01:05:23,080 --> 01:05:27,560
Speaker 1: question without describing an ongoing investigation. So it's your position,

1074
01:05:27,600 --> 01:05:29,920
Speaker 1: you're not going to describe any investigation, but you'll decline

1075
01:05:29,920 --> 01:05:32,840
Speaker 1: to answer any questions because there might be some investigation

1076
01:05:32,920 --> 01:05:36,800
Speaker 1: that might implicate it. Know. What I'm testifying too, is

1077
01:05:36,840 --> 01:05:39,640
Speaker 1: that the questions you're asking, I know for a fact,

1078
01:05:39,720 --> 01:05:45,240
Speaker 1: implicate matters that I can't describe without implicating an ongoing investigation.

1079
01:05:46,480 --> 01:05:49,680
Speaker 1: All right, let's shift to Mr Horowitz. Let's go a

1080
01:05:49,760 --> 01:05:51,520
Speaker 1: little bit deeper into the issue you brought up with

1081
01:05:51,520 --> 01:05:58,880
Speaker 1: Senator Coons about the potential bias and the investigation. Your

1082
01:05:58,920 --> 01:06:06,720
Speaker 1: conclusion was that the agents involved in the conduct quote

1083
01:06:06,760 --> 01:06:10,360
Speaker 1: brought discredit to themselves, so doubt about the FBI's handling

1084
01:06:10,360 --> 01:06:14,200
Speaker 1: of the investigation, and impacted the reputation of the FBI.

1085
01:06:15,440 --> 01:06:18,680
Speaker 1: There were approximately fifteen full time agents and analysts staffed

1086
01:06:18,680 --> 01:06:22,920
Speaker 1: on this investigation. Is that correct? Um? I don't, As

1087
01:06:22,920 --> 01:06:24,720
Speaker 1: I said here, I'm not sure the exact number. It

1088
01:06:24,800 --> 01:06:26,840
Speaker 1: could well have been that number. It was a lot,

1089
01:06:26,960 --> 01:06:30,400
Speaker 1: and probably around that number and Deputy Assistant Director Peter

1090
01:06:30,480 --> 01:06:34,920
Speaker 1: Struck was assigned to the investigation in August and was

1091
01:06:34,920 --> 01:06:37,440
Speaker 1: placed in charge of supervising the day to day operations.

1092
01:06:37,840 --> 01:06:41,560
Speaker 1: My understanding is who was, in essence the leading the investigation,

1093
01:06:42,400 --> 01:06:44,600
Speaker 1: so the agent leading the investigation. Is it true that

1094
01:06:44,680 --> 01:06:49,640
Speaker 1: during the period of the investigation in late when Mr

1095
01:06:49,680 --> 01:06:53,360
Speaker 1: Stroke was in charge, he used an FBI device to

1096
01:06:53,400 --> 01:06:57,560
Speaker 1: call President Trump a quote FFing idiot, although I don't

1097
01:06:57,600 --> 01:07:02,800
Speaker 1: believe he abbreviated it a oaths, some human and a disaster. Correct?

1098
01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:07,000
Speaker 1: Did he also say multiple times that Donald Trump quote

1099
01:07:07,080 --> 01:07:13,760
Speaker 1: cannot be president? Correct? And in August, when FBI Council

1100
01:07:13,800 --> 01:07:16,919
Speaker 1: Lisa Page said to Struck that quote maybe you're meant

1101
01:07:16,960 --> 01:07:20,280
Speaker 1: to stay where you are because you're meant to protect

1102
01:07:20,320 --> 01:07:24,920
Speaker 1: the country from that menace, meaning President Trump, did Mr

1103
01:07:24,920 --> 01:07:28,760
Speaker 1: Struck reply that I can protect our country at many levels.

1104
01:07:30,160 --> 01:07:33,560
Speaker 1: And two days later, when Council Lisa Page asked Mr

1105
01:07:33,600 --> 01:07:38,160
Speaker 1: Struck whether Donald Trump would ever become president, did Struck reply, quote, no, no,

1106
01:07:38,440 --> 01:07:43,840
Speaker 1: he's not, will stop it? Correct? And is it true

1107
01:07:43,880 --> 01:07:45,920
Speaker 1: that there are many similar statements by Mr Struck in

1108
01:07:45,960 --> 01:07:49,640
Speaker 1: the report? Uh, that's correct? And indeed you could go

1109
01:07:49,680 --> 01:07:53,040
Speaker 1: on to August seven days later, which was of concern

1110
01:07:53,120 --> 01:07:57,160
Speaker 1: to us as well, referencing an insurance policy. Now, according

1111
01:07:57,200 --> 01:08:00,160
Speaker 1: to the report, beyond Mr Stroke and Lisa Page, there

1112
01:08:00,160 --> 01:08:03,080
Speaker 1: were at least three other FBI employees involved in the

1113
01:08:03,120 --> 01:08:08,600
Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton email investigation that showed animus. For example, they

1114
01:08:08,640 --> 01:08:12,920
Speaker 1: called President Trump an effing idiot again, and they called

1115
01:08:12,960 --> 01:08:16,680
Speaker 1: his supporters a slur for the intellectually disabled that I

1116
01:08:16,720 --> 01:08:20,240
Speaker 1: won't repeat in this committee. Is that correct? Does any

1117
01:08:20,280 --> 01:08:23,680
Speaker 1: of that conduct give one confidence in fairness or impartiality

1118
01:08:23,760 --> 01:08:27,640
Speaker 1: and the enforcement of justice? I think it undercuts confidence

1119
01:08:28,280 --> 01:08:33,280
Speaker 1: precisely as we said, now you referred to former Congressman

1120
01:08:33,320 --> 01:08:36,280
Speaker 1: Anthony we Winner see his laptopics correct that the FBI

1121
01:08:36,400 --> 01:08:40,320
Speaker 1: discovered the presence of thousands of emails related to the

1122
01:08:40,320 --> 01:08:48,200
Speaker 1: Clinton investigation on September. How long did Deputy Director McCabe

1123
01:08:48,200 --> 01:08:51,560
Speaker 1: and Director Comy know about the emails that were potentially

1124
01:08:51,560 --> 01:08:54,640
Speaker 1: relevant to the Clinton administration and do absolutely nothing about it?

1125
01:08:54,720 --> 01:08:59,839
Speaker 1: So Director McCabe's deputy Director McCabe was aware on September

1126
01:09:00,640 --> 01:09:05,000
Speaker 1: the next day and was notified on multiple ways and

1127
01:09:05,080 --> 01:09:10,000
Speaker 1: multiple occasions as well. On September It there was follow

1128
01:09:10,080 --> 01:09:14,560
Speaker 1: up about that by Struck and others, and between September

1129
01:09:16,120 --> 01:09:22,920
Speaker 1: and October there was no activity by the Midyear team

1130
01:09:23,040 --> 01:09:27,680
Speaker 1: or FBI headquarters. And in fact, it was only reinstigated

1131
01:09:27,720 --> 01:09:32,080
Speaker 1: on October when the New York Field Office went to

1132
01:09:32,160 --> 01:09:34,000
Speaker 1: the Southern District of New York and said, no one's

1133
01:09:34,040 --> 01:09:37,880
Speaker 1: doing anything about this, So nearly a month nearly. And

1134
01:09:37,920 --> 01:09:40,599
Speaker 1: I'll just just to clarify also if I could, it's

1135
01:09:40,720 --> 01:09:46,439
Speaker 1: unclear exactly what and when Director Comy knew, because there

1136
01:09:46,520 --> 01:09:49,840
Speaker 1: is testimony from Director McKay Deputy Director McCabe that he

1137
01:09:50,520 --> 01:09:55,160
Speaker 1: briefed him on it somewhere in that late September early

1138
01:09:55,160 --> 01:09:57,880
Speaker 1: October time period, but he also referred to as a

1139
01:09:57,920 --> 01:10:01,280
Speaker 1: fly by briefing. And I think in an area like this,

1140
01:10:02,040 --> 01:10:05,200
Speaker 1: you need to be careful, as I'm guessing Director Rate

1141
01:10:05,200 --> 01:10:09,120
Speaker 1: could testify to when you're managing people, it's unclear whether

1142
01:10:09,160 --> 01:10:12,360
Speaker 1: it's fair to hold someone accountable in that position if

1143
01:10:12,360 --> 01:10:14,360
Speaker 1: they only got a fly by briefing. So that's why

1144
01:10:14,360 --> 01:10:16,439
Speaker 1: I'm hesitant to speak on that. Thank you. I think

1145
01:10:16,439 --> 01:10:18,519
Speaker 1: you folks can be out of here in five minutes,

1146
01:10:18,640 --> 01:10:22,360
Speaker 1: all right. Let me get to Sarah Carter, investigative reporter,

1147
01:10:22,400 --> 01:10:27,400
Speaker 1: Fox News contributor David Chone, civil liberties attorney, criminal rights attorney, Sarah,

1148
01:10:27,520 --> 01:10:30,040
Speaker 1: You've been watching this all day as I have been. Uh,

1149
01:10:30,120 --> 01:10:35,400
Speaker 1: the facts are indisputable. Hillary committed crimes, obstructed justice, and

1150
01:10:35,680 --> 01:10:38,679
Speaker 1: now we have as a Senator Cruz was saying five

1151
01:10:38,840 --> 01:10:42,920
Speaker 1: at least FBI agents on record hating Trump and wanting

1152
01:10:42,960 --> 01:10:48,320
Speaker 1: Hillary to be exonerated of the fifteen full time. Well,

1153
01:10:48,360 --> 01:10:51,559
Speaker 1: I think this is what's so incredible this hearing. I mean,

1154
01:10:51,800 --> 01:10:53,600
Speaker 1: what we what we're getting out of it, And I

1155
01:10:53,640 --> 01:10:56,040
Speaker 1: think what's most important is the fact that there was

1156
01:10:56,080 --> 01:11:00,519
Speaker 1: this two tier justice system and it's so dark. And

1157
01:11:00,600 --> 01:11:05,759
Speaker 1: I think a Senator Grassley his opening statement and questions throughout,

1158
01:11:05,840 --> 01:11:08,240
Speaker 1: and I also agree with you Sean on the fact

1159
01:11:08,240 --> 01:11:12,400
Speaker 1: that Senator Graham also made such an important statement, you know,

1160
01:11:12,640 --> 01:11:15,400
Speaker 1: um in this in this hearing, and now we're hearing

1161
01:11:15,439 --> 01:11:18,400
Speaker 1: more right now from a Senator Cruz. But the fact

1162
01:11:18,400 --> 01:11:22,320
Speaker 1: that there was such an extraordinary bias, I mean, and

1163
01:11:22,360 --> 01:11:26,040
Speaker 1: Grassley goes through point by point, he talks about under

1164
01:11:26,160 --> 01:11:29,719
Speaker 1: Lynch that Comey drafted a public exoneration of Clinton before

1165
01:11:29,800 --> 01:11:33,919
Speaker 1: seventeen key witnesses were interviewed under Rosenstein, No one seriously

1166
01:11:33,960 --> 01:11:37,640
Speaker 1: thinks Robert Mueller would plan a press conference to exonerate

1167
01:11:37,680 --> 01:11:40,439
Speaker 1: Trump before his investigator's work is done. Then he talks

1168
01:11:40,439 --> 01:11:43,160
Speaker 1: about under Lynch, a low level I T worker lied

1169
01:11:43,240 --> 01:11:46,519
Speaker 1: to the FBI twice about destroying records under subpoena and

1170
01:11:46,560 --> 01:11:50,519
Speaker 1: then got immunity. Under Rosenstein, a low level Trump campaign

1171
01:11:50,520 --> 01:11:54,040
Speaker 1: associate provided the wrong date for a conversation with a

1172
01:11:54,040 --> 01:11:56,920
Speaker 1: professor and then got charged with lying to the FBI.

1173
01:11:57,720 --> 01:11:59,880
Speaker 1: And it goes on and on and on. Let me

1174
01:12:00,040 --> 01:12:03,120
Speaker 1: go to the heart of the Inspector General's report, and

1175
01:12:03,160 --> 01:12:05,439
Speaker 1: he's trying to make the case, Oh, yeah, we have

1176
01:12:05,479 --> 01:12:09,519
Speaker 1: all those bias, and obviously these things happened, and clearly

1177
01:12:09,560 --> 01:12:14,559
Speaker 1: they favored Hillary and and hated Trump. Um. But his

1178
01:12:14,960 --> 01:12:19,879
Speaker 1: ridiculous conclusion that they found no documentary or testimonial evidence

1179
01:12:19,920 --> 01:12:24,360
Speaker 1: to show that the prosecutorial discretion, if you will, or

1180
01:12:24,360 --> 01:12:29,120
Speaker 1: the decision not to prosecute Clinton criminally was any product

1181
01:12:29,200 --> 01:12:33,720
Speaker 1: of any political bias, is such a reach and so absurd.

1182
01:12:34,280 --> 01:12:37,160
Speaker 1: And if there's ever been an obstruction case, there's nothing

1183
01:12:37,240 --> 01:12:43,240
Speaker 1: more clear than Hillary the leading acid washing beating up devices. Uh.

1184
01:12:43,360 --> 01:12:46,600
Speaker 1: David Chung, Yeah, I think the Inspector General really was

1185
01:12:46,680 --> 01:12:49,120
Speaker 1: forced to back off of that conclusion to some degree. Today.

1186
01:12:49,200 --> 01:12:51,519
Speaker 1: Here's what I think two or three of the major

1187
01:12:51,560 --> 01:12:53,479
Speaker 1: takeaways from today where and there are a lot of

1188
01:12:53,520 --> 01:12:57,720
Speaker 1: other details. First, the Inspector General acknowledged that, uh, the

1189
01:12:57,840 --> 01:13:02,200
Speaker 1: conduct here publicly so doubt on the FBI, a complete

1190
01:13:02,200 --> 01:13:05,120
Speaker 1: cloud over the integrity of the Clinton email investigation, and

1191
01:13:05,200 --> 01:13:09,120
Speaker 1: he said a huge cloud over the Russia investigation too.

1192
01:13:09,320 --> 01:13:14,240
Speaker 1: He said the investigators, including the lead investigator, clearly was

1193
01:13:14,280 --> 01:13:17,439
Speaker 1: politically biased. You can't say otherwise. And this he said,

1194
01:13:17,479 --> 01:13:19,280
Speaker 1: they never should have used the same people for the

1195
01:13:19,360 --> 01:13:22,720
Speaker 1: Russia investigation. But here's the fundamental flaw in his conclusion,

1196
01:13:22,960 --> 01:13:25,720
Speaker 1: and I think he's starting to recognize this. He acknowledged

1197
01:13:25,760 --> 01:13:29,760
Speaker 1: that all the entire universe and evidence that the prosecutors made,

1198
01:13:29,880 --> 01:13:33,160
Speaker 1: who made the decision not to indict Hillary Clinton, came

1199
01:13:33,280 --> 01:13:38,000
Speaker 1: from these biased investigators. That means they investigators determined what

1200
01:13:38,160 --> 01:13:41,080
Speaker 1: to go after, what to withhold, and what to submit

1201
01:13:41,120 --> 01:13:44,559
Speaker 1: to the decision maker for the entire decision making process. Uh,

1202
01:13:44,800 --> 01:13:47,880
Speaker 1: was the entire universe of evidence they relied on was

1203
01:13:47,920 --> 01:13:50,120
Speaker 1: from these investigators. And I think the last point that

1204
01:13:50,200 --> 01:13:53,160
Speaker 1: has to be made now is people want to say, well, look,

1205
01:13:53,280 --> 01:13:56,960
Speaker 1: Mueller fired Struck a week after this came out in July. No,

1206
01:13:57,400 --> 01:14:00,160
Speaker 1: the fundamental point is if we're gonna learn anything him

1207
01:14:00,160 --> 01:14:02,519
Speaker 1: this lesson or it's a complete waste of time, is

1208
01:14:02,560 --> 01:14:06,440
Speaker 1: that we cannot have these kinds of people involved in investigations,

1209
01:14:06,520 --> 01:14:08,880
Speaker 1: and what we have with the Moller team. It may

1210
01:14:08,920 --> 01:14:12,160
Speaker 1: not be Struck, but if many people include everyone on

1211
01:14:12,200 --> 01:14:15,800
Speaker 1: the team who has the same political agenda and perspective

1212
01:14:15,880 --> 01:14:19,920
Speaker 1: and stripe that Struck in page head, they're just more sophisticated.

1213
01:14:20,160 --> 01:14:21,880
Speaker 1: You know. You go to the point that I think

1214
01:14:21,960 --> 01:14:24,360
Speaker 1: is very key is the same people they never should

1215
01:14:24,360 --> 01:14:27,639
Speaker 1: have had, the same people that investigated an exonerated Hillary

1216
01:14:27,800 --> 01:14:30,760
Speaker 1: and thread the needle for her and gave her every consideration,

1217
01:14:31,280 --> 01:14:33,800
Speaker 1: the very same people that we are on record hating

1218
01:14:33,840 --> 01:14:38,280
Speaker 1: Trump and loving Hillary than using the full force of

1219
01:14:38,360 --> 01:14:42,280
Speaker 1: their offices and their power of their their positions to

1220
01:14:42,600 --> 01:14:46,759
Speaker 1: just play hammer after hammer, sledge hammer after sledge hammer

1221
01:14:47,200 --> 01:14:49,760
Speaker 1: against Trump. That's not how it's supposed to work. You

1222
01:14:49,840 --> 01:14:53,320
Speaker 1: treat people equally, and that's not the case. Even the

1223
01:14:53,360 --> 01:14:55,760
Speaker 1: Idea expressed his shocked that they would use the same

1224
01:14:55,800 --> 01:14:59,360
Speaker 1: people Page three of the IG report and footnote one,

1225
01:14:59,680 --> 01:15:02,439
Speaker 1: it's a the expresses their shock that they would use

1226
01:15:02,439 --> 01:15:05,880
Speaker 1: these same people who now exoners supposedly exonerated Clinton, and

1227
01:15:05,880 --> 01:15:08,840
Speaker 1: they transfer them to the Muther team. And now we

1228
01:15:08,960 --> 01:15:11,639
Speaker 1: know what the email said. Now we have by the way,

1229
01:15:11,680 --> 01:15:14,120
Speaker 1: you know, they still haven't ever gotten this point came

1230
01:15:14,160 --> 01:15:16,960
Speaker 1: out today. They have never gotten the private emails or

1231
01:15:17,040 --> 01:15:21,880
Speaker 1: devices from Strook and page unbelievable. Now does that taint

1232
01:15:21,920 --> 01:15:25,800
Speaker 1: the investigation of Robert Muller completely and doesn't wipe it

1233
01:15:25,840 --> 01:15:30,080
Speaker 1: out in your opinion if you're asking me, and it's look,

1234
01:15:30,120 --> 01:15:32,600
Speaker 1: it's just one more thing that does. But what we know,

1235
01:15:32,760 --> 01:15:35,200
Speaker 1: unquestionably is we've heard from the I G and from

1236
01:15:35,200 --> 01:15:39,160
Speaker 1: everyone else. Now you cannot have an investigation with biased investigators.

1237
01:15:39,400 --> 01:15:41,599
Speaker 1: They're the ones who decide what evidence to go after,

1238
01:15:41,880 --> 01:15:45,000
Speaker 1: what to withhold, and what to present. We know now

1239
01:15:46,240 --> 01:15:49,120
Speaker 1: about the team that makes up the Muller investigation. If

1240
01:15:49,120 --> 01:15:51,920
Speaker 1: there was a huge cloud over the Clinton email investigation,

1241
01:15:52,200 --> 01:15:55,160
Speaker 1: there's a much larger cloud and darker cloud over the

1242
01:15:55,200 --> 01:15:58,439
Speaker 1: Muller investigation because it's a team of sophisticated people with

1243
01:15:58,520 --> 01:16:03,040
Speaker 1: the same political agenda. Absolutely, there's no doubt that what

1244
01:16:03,320 --> 01:16:05,680
Speaker 1: what's being what Mr Sharan is saying right now. Is

1245
01:16:05,720 --> 01:16:09,920
Speaker 1: absolutely true. And I can tell you coming from retired

1246
01:16:10,120 --> 01:16:13,920
Speaker 1: and former FBI agents, people who actually left the bureau

1247
01:16:14,040 --> 01:16:17,120
Speaker 1: because they were so disgusted with what was going on

1248
01:16:17,120 --> 01:16:19,759
Speaker 1: on the seventh floor. Uh I was on the phone

1249
01:16:19,760 --> 01:16:22,720
Speaker 1: with them today. They said, look, unless it is completely

1250
01:16:22,760 --> 01:16:27,200
Speaker 1: gutted out, unless Ray is willing to look inside what

1251
01:16:27,400 --> 01:16:31,719
Speaker 1: was happening inside his own bureau and then remove people

1252
01:16:32,080 --> 01:16:36,240
Speaker 1: from their positions who were associated with McCabe, who were loyalists,

1253
01:16:36,240 --> 01:16:39,320
Speaker 1: Takomi that there won't be any changes there. There are

1254
01:16:39,320 --> 01:16:41,599
Speaker 1: a lot of people that were not even talking about,

1255
01:16:41,840 --> 01:16:45,080
Speaker 1: that haven't even been mentioned publicly, that are still there

1256
01:16:45,080 --> 01:16:47,840
Speaker 1: at the FBI UM and still within the d o

1257
01:16:47,920 --> 01:16:50,559
Speaker 1: J that need to be removed. Is what I am

1258
01:16:50,600 --> 01:16:53,479
Speaker 1: hearing from my sources. And if if we think there

1259
01:16:53,520 --> 01:16:56,479
Speaker 1: was a dark cloud over these investigations, you just have

1260
01:16:56,600 --> 01:17:00,000
Speaker 1: to ask yourself this Seaun, what other investigations were these

1261
01:17:00,120 --> 01:17:05,479
Speaker 1: people involved in that they cut corners? And I think

1262
01:17:05,479 --> 01:17:08,519
Speaker 1: this sets up for anything that they've been involved in,

1263
01:17:09,080 --> 01:17:13,040
Speaker 1: it will be re examined based on their their political biases.

1264
01:17:13,400 --> 01:17:15,760
Speaker 1: Stay right there, Sarah Carter David shown both will be

1265
01:17:15,800 --> 01:17:19,120
Speaker 1: on Hannity tonight as well as New king Rich Jason

1266
01:17:19,200 --> 01:17:22,439
Speaker 1: Chafitz has been phenomenal on this. Michael Kaputo tonight and

1267
01:17:22,560 --> 01:17:25,920
Speaker 1: Dr Sebastian Gorka. Your call is coming up the next

1268
01:17:26,120 --> 01:17:29,040
Speaker 1: half hour on Sean. You want to be a part

1269
01:17:29,040 --> 01:17:31,519
Speaker 1: of the program, jump on here. We continue first with

1270
01:17:31,600 --> 01:17:35,839
Speaker 1: Sarah Carter and David Shown. Um. I guess the issue

1271
01:17:35,920 --> 01:17:39,400
Speaker 1: here is, Okay, we're gonna hear from FBI rank and

1272
01:17:39,479 --> 01:17:42,280
Speaker 1: file that know a lot more. We're gonna hopefully get

1273
01:17:42,320 --> 01:17:45,240
Speaker 1: the documents Sarah, which from what I understand, a big

1274
01:17:45,280 --> 01:17:49,160
Speaker 1: showdown took place with Goudy and with Paul Ryan on

1275
01:17:49,200 --> 01:17:52,120
Speaker 1: Friday and the d o J. What's the status of

1276
01:17:52,160 --> 01:17:56,439
Speaker 1: that as of just thirty minutes ago, Sean, they have

1277
01:17:56,520 --> 01:17:59,200
Speaker 1: not given any documentation. And I can tell you this,

1278
01:17:59,800 --> 01:18:02,639
Speaker 1: it's not gonna They're not gonna wait till Friday. Um.

1279
01:18:02,640 --> 01:18:05,160
Speaker 1: I've talked. I've talked to a number of congressional members

1280
01:18:05,280 --> 01:18:10,160
Speaker 1: and sources on the Hill, and if Rod Rosenstein and

1281
01:18:10,240 --> 01:18:13,879
Speaker 1: the d o J withhold that documentation, they could expect

1282
01:18:14,040 --> 01:18:18,040
Speaker 1: by as early as Wednesday, took possibly file impeachment against

1283
01:18:18,120 --> 01:18:22,599
Speaker 1: Rod Rosenstein. So they're taking this very seriously. Gaudi asked

1284
01:18:22,640 --> 01:18:26,520
Speaker 1: for documentation on Sunday. They didn't provide that on Sunday.

1285
01:18:26,640 --> 01:18:30,680
Speaker 1: UH nunnius Is asked for documentation as well what they

1286
01:18:30,680 --> 01:18:36,040
Speaker 1: requested in April, which was a classified memorandums and documentation

1287
01:18:36,080 --> 01:18:39,360
Speaker 1: that they put in an email UH to Director Rod

1288
01:18:39,439 --> 01:18:43,360
Speaker 1: Rosenstein Deputy Director Rod Rosenstein. They have still refused to

1289
01:18:43,400 --> 01:18:46,080
Speaker 1: turn that over and as of today they have not

1290
01:18:46,200 --> 01:18:48,080
Speaker 1: turned anything over. I can tell you this, there is

1291
01:18:48,120 --> 01:18:51,479
Speaker 1: going to be a showdown, a big showdown before Wednesday

1292
01:18:51,520 --> 01:18:54,960
Speaker 1: if that documentation is not provided. Interesting and they've gotten

1293
01:18:54,960 --> 01:18:57,000
Speaker 1: away with it up to this point, legally, can Hillary

1294
01:18:57,040 --> 01:19:01,479
Speaker 1: Clinton still be prosecuted? David Chone absolutely. I want to

1295
01:19:01,520 --> 01:19:04,479
Speaker 1: make this point though, everything that said on this show

1296
01:19:04,520 --> 01:19:07,320
Speaker 1: that Sarah Carter is investigated is starting to fall into

1297
01:19:07,320 --> 01:19:10,200
Speaker 1: place more and more. Other things that came out today.

1298
01:19:10,240 --> 01:19:13,040
Speaker 1: By the way, Inspector General said that what he found

1299
01:19:13,200 --> 01:19:16,240
Speaker 1: validates the firing of Comey. He found that there was

1300
01:19:16,280 --> 01:19:20,559
Speaker 1: a meeting it within McCabe's office. Way was struck page

1301
01:19:20,680 --> 01:19:23,600
Speaker 1: and McCabe. Now McCabe denies it, He doesn't recall it,

1302
01:19:23,760 --> 01:19:26,320
Speaker 1: struct says he was there. You can't tell me this

1303
01:19:26,400 --> 01:19:29,160
Speaker 1: was two isolated agents with this kind of agenda. The

1304
01:19:29,200 --> 01:19:32,160
Speaker 1: purpose of the meeting was to stop Trump. Well, we

1305
01:19:32,240 --> 01:19:34,280
Speaker 1: know that that's a fact because we we have all

1306
01:19:34,320 --> 01:19:37,840
Speaker 1: the other agents that have been picked up in these messages,

1307
01:19:37,880 --> 01:19:40,840
Speaker 1: and at least five of the fifteen key investigators hated

1308
01:19:40,840 --> 01:19:43,439
Speaker 1: Trump and loved Ellery. And we're talking about putting the

1309
01:19:43,439 --> 01:19:46,040
Speaker 1: fix in for Hillary, so that you know, you know

1310
01:19:46,080 --> 01:19:48,360
Speaker 1: that if we had equal justice under the law, now

1311
01:19:48,400 --> 01:19:50,799
Speaker 1: we'd see the mistake, we look at the crime she committed,

1312
01:19:50,840 --> 01:19:54,559
Speaker 1: and she would be prosecuted like Christian Saucier. And the

1313
01:19:54,560 --> 01:19:56,320
Speaker 1: next point, by the way, that you have made is

1314
01:19:56,720 --> 01:19:59,679
Speaker 1: many times add to all of this mix the leak

1315
01:19:59,800 --> 01:20:03,360
Speaker 1: in intentionally by Comey to Daniel Richmond for a specific

1316
01:20:03,439 --> 01:20:06,000
Speaker 1: agenda that hasn't even been touched on. Why is all

1317
01:20:06,040 --> 01:20:10,040
Speaker 1: of this important? Because the American Special Council investigation is

1318
01:20:10,040 --> 01:20:12,400
Speaker 1: only as good as what the American people have confidence in.

1319
01:20:12,720 --> 01:20:16,520
Speaker 1: What the American people cannot have confidence in the Muller investigation.

1320
01:20:16,800 --> 01:20:19,479
Speaker 1: With this background, knowing that the Muther team is far

1321
01:20:19,520 --> 01:20:22,920
Speaker 1: worse and far more sophisticated than Struck Page in the cab.

1322
01:20:23,439 --> 01:20:25,639
Speaker 1: All right, thank you both, David Show and Sarah Carter,

1323
01:20:25,720 --> 01:20:29,120
Speaker 1: your calls are next. Alright, twenty five now, till the

1324
01:20:29,320 --> 01:20:33,160
Speaker 1: top of the hour on a Monday. One Seawn is

1325
01:20:33,240 --> 01:20:35,200
Speaker 1: our number. You want to be a part of the program. Boy,

1326
01:20:35,240 --> 01:20:38,519
Speaker 1: it's good to be home. It was twenty eight hours

1327
01:20:38,640 --> 01:20:41,439
Speaker 1: door to door to get home, right, Linda, about twenty

1328
01:20:41,479 --> 01:20:44,280
Speaker 1: eight hours? I think mine was a little longer. Why

1329
01:20:44,360 --> 01:20:47,200
Speaker 1: which was longer than that? Wasn't traffic forever? I didn't

1330
01:20:47,240 --> 01:20:49,439
Speaker 1: get home to like in the afternoon. That's right. You

1331
01:20:49,479 --> 01:20:53,000
Speaker 1: live out in the wilderness out there somewhere. Um, but

1332
01:20:53,360 --> 01:20:56,600
Speaker 1: I hope everybody enjoyed the coverage. Our team is amazing.

1333
01:20:56,720 --> 01:21:00,600
Speaker 1: I mean three am every morning in Singapore, and we

1334
01:21:00,600 --> 01:21:03,240
Speaker 1: didn't miss a beat in terms of any technical glitches

1335
01:21:03,280 --> 01:21:05,200
Speaker 1: that I know of, Jason, right, or at least you

1336
01:21:05,200 --> 01:21:08,240
Speaker 1: didn't tell me if any. No, it was for Singapore.

1337
01:21:08,320 --> 01:21:10,880
Speaker 1: It was really good. It was really good. Not easy

1338
01:21:10,920 --> 01:21:12,880
Speaker 1: to pull off at the other side of the world

1339
01:21:13,240 --> 01:21:16,880
Speaker 1: and amazing stuff. Um now we're we're just gonna take

1340
01:21:16,880 --> 01:21:20,360
Speaker 1: calls this half hour. One Sean is our number. You

1341
01:21:20,360 --> 01:21:21,840
Speaker 1: want to be a part of the problem, we should.

1342
01:21:21,840 --> 01:21:23,439
Speaker 1: What was some of the stories I kept saying, Oh,

1343
01:21:23,439 --> 01:21:25,360
Speaker 1: we gotta talk about that on Monday. Oh, I gotta

1344
01:21:25,400 --> 01:21:27,760
Speaker 1: talk about that on Monday. I think They mostly had

1345
01:21:27,800 --> 01:21:30,760
Speaker 1: to do with Linda Blair and Sarah and um, do

1346
01:21:30,800 --> 01:21:32,640
Speaker 1: you remember any of the ones that I wanted to

1347
01:21:32,680 --> 01:21:34,479
Speaker 1: make fun of you on? Well? Can we talk about

1348
01:21:34,479 --> 01:21:36,360
Speaker 1: you at the temple? You can talk about me at

1349
01:21:36,360 --> 01:21:38,719
Speaker 1: the temple? What's wrong with me? At the temple? Sarah

1350
01:21:38,720 --> 01:21:41,560
Speaker 1: convinces everybody. All Right, it's only fifteen minutes away, and

1351
01:21:41,600 --> 01:21:43,120
Speaker 1: I'm not a big tourist. When I go out, I'm

1352
01:21:43,120 --> 01:21:45,479
Speaker 1: focused on my job. I said, all right, I'll do one. Okay,

1353
01:21:45,520 --> 01:21:47,360
Speaker 1: I think I need to interrupt, because, first of all,

1354
01:21:47,400 --> 01:21:49,000
Speaker 1: you were not a tourist at all. You were the

1355
01:21:49,000 --> 01:21:51,680
Speaker 1: most annoying person to travel with on the planet. This

1356
01:21:51,760 --> 01:21:55,160
Speaker 1: is this is Sean's idea of tourism. We go, We

1357
01:21:55,240 --> 01:21:58,240
Speaker 1: get in the car, in the car fifteen minutes. All right,

1358
01:21:58,280 --> 01:22:00,400
Speaker 1: I'm done. I'm ready to go back home. We haven't

1359
01:22:00,439 --> 01:22:02,080
Speaker 1: left the car yet. Yeah, I've seen everything I need

1360
01:22:02,120 --> 01:22:03,960
Speaker 1: to see. I'm good. I'm good. Send me pictures from

1361
01:22:03,960 --> 01:22:06,520
Speaker 1: wherever you go. I'm good. That's your idea of tourism.

1362
01:22:07,080 --> 01:22:10,599
Speaker 1: Then we get to this beautiful Buddhist temple. It's gorgeous.

1363
01:22:10,640 --> 01:22:13,880
Speaker 1: We could see everything, and literally all I can see

1364
01:22:13,960 --> 01:22:15,960
Speaker 1: is you going over to where they put their their

1365
01:22:15,960 --> 01:22:18,679
Speaker 1: incense sticks. And it's like they take these sticks, they

1366
01:22:19,160 --> 01:22:22,920
Speaker 1: buy them, therefore the prayers of the dead. They hold

1367
01:22:22,960 --> 01:22:24,320
Speaker 1: them up to their heads, they prey on them, and

1368
01:22:24,320 --> 01:22:26,680
Speaker 1: they put them into this like big I don't even

1369
01:22:26,720 --> 01:22:28,760
Speaker 1: know what you would call it. It's just a ginormous

1370
01:22:28,760 --> 01:22:31,960
Speaker 1: like cauld. It's like when when I was a kid,

1371
01:22:32,000 --> 01:22:33,679
Speaker 1: on the fourth of July, we used to use what's

1372
01:22:33,720 --> 01:22:36,839
Speaker 1: called the punk to light our fireworks and it smelled

1373
01:22:36,920 --> 01:22:39,479
Speaker 1: just like them. So okay, so let's let's let's come

1374
01:22:39,520 --> 01:22:42,080
Speaker 1: back to my story. Okay, first of all, you take

1375
01:22:42,120 --> 01:22:45,920
Speaker 1: the punchline away and you're telling the story backwards. So

1376
01:22:46,000 --> 01:22:48,840
Speaker 1: everybody's going everybody's going up and they're putting their prayer

1377
01:22:48,880 --> 01:22:50,479
Speaker 1: sticks in of the people that they've prayed for and

1378
01:22:50,520 --> 01:22:53,200
Speaker 1: they've helped them up to Buddha and they've prayed on them.

1379
01:22:53,200 --> 01:22:55,320
Speaker 1: And then you go over, how do you know I

1380
01:22:55,360 --> 01:22:57,720
Speaker 1: wasn't praying for you. Definitely weren't praying because it wasn't

1381
01:22:57,760 --> 01:23:00,519
Speaker 1: your stick. You took somebody else's stick, but put in

1382
01:23:01,120 --> 01:23:04,080
Speaker 1: you can't pray on somebody else's prayer. I can't with you,

1383
01:23:04,240 --> 01:23:06,760
Speaker 1: I can't pray for another person. Is that what you're saying.

1384
01:23:07,479 --> 01:23:09,599
Speaker 1: I'm telling the team now. I'm telling the team, now,

1385
01:23:09,640 --> 01:23:12,760
Speaker 1: you're a disaster. He takes somebody else's prayer out of

1386
01:23:12,760 --> 01:23:15,920
Speaker 1: the caldron and he starts smelling it like like it's

1387
01:23:15,960 --> 01:23:20,679
Speaker 1: a vanilla like a vanilla incense stick. Hit. I was saying,

1388
01:23:20,680 --> 01:23:22,880
Speaker 1: a prayer. What the first of all, they put the

1389
01:23:22,920 --> 01:23:27,360
Speaker 1: prayer into this beautiful vase like thing. It's enormous sticking up,

1390
01:23:27,400 --> 01:23:30,760
Speaker 1: and the incense or the punk it's literally was don't

1391
01:23:30,760 --> 01:23:32,960
Speaker 1: call it punks. Oh my god, I'm saying, so people

1392
01:23:33,000 --> 01:23:35,559
Speaker 1: that know what it smells like, it smelling. It doesn't

1393
01:23:35,560 --> 01:23:37,920
Speaker 1: matter what it smells like. It was lit for someone

1394
01:23:38,000 --> 01:23:40,160
Speaker 1: in memory of their love when it had passed on.

1395
01:23:40,280 --> 01:23:42,439
Speaker 1: How do you know I wasn't. You take one out,

1396
01:23:42,520 --> 01:23:44,519
Speaker 1: you wave it under your nose, just smelling it like

1397
01:23:44,520 --> 01:23:46,600
Speaker 1: it's a perfume stick. You take another one out, you

1398
01:23:46,680 --> 01:23:50,120
Speaker 1: wave it under your nose. Security security that the door,

1399
01:23:50,200 --> 01:23:52,040
Speaker 1: just staring at us. I'm like, oh god, we're gonna

1400
01:23:52,040 --> 01:23:54,000
Speaker 1: get arrest. Well, the monk came over and said hello

1401
01:23:54,040 --> 01:23:56,320
Speaker 1: to me. I mean that was nice, yeah, because he's like, hello,

1402
01:23:56,360 --> 01:24:01,280
Speaker 1: clueless American, why are you smelling? It was later and uh,

1403
01:24:01,320 --> 01:24:04,280
Speaker 1: it was. That was amazing. But Sarah, apparently there's a

1404
01:24:04,320 --> 01:24:07,439
Speaker 1: tradition where they throw what I don't know what the problem. No,

1405
01:24:07,560 --> 01:24:09,120
Speaker 1: we went and did it. We went and did it

1406
01:24:09,120 --> 01:24:11,280
Speaker 1: because you did it, because it wasn't at that temple,

1407
01:24:11,439 --> 01:24:14,280
Speaker 1: that right, that temple didn't do it. So basically, when

1408
01:24:14,320 --> 01:24:17,160
Speaker 1: in in the Buddhist religion, the way that they praise

1409
01:24:17,240 --> 01:24:19,519
Speaker 1: that they it's the shaking of the sticks and on

1410
01:24:19,640 --> 01:24:22,599
Speaker 1: each stick there is a number written in Chinese, and

1411
01:24:22,640 --> 01:24:25,439
Speaker 1: then that number is specific to you, and then you

1412
01:24:25,479 --> 01:24:27,559
Speaker 1: take it over to the monk and they read this

1413
01:24:27,680 --> 01:24:29,840
Speaker 1: number and they tell you very well for you did

1414
01:24:29,840 --> 01:24:31,280
Speaker 1: it well. For me, it was no good, But for

1415
01:24:31,400 --> 01:24:34,280
Speaker 1: Sarah it was fantastic. What did they say, you're gonna die?

1416
01:24:34,400 --> 01:24:37,000
Speaker 1: I mean that said I said I was trouble, yeah,

1417
01:24:37,160 --> 01:24:40,320
Speaker 1: no kidding. So it actually said I was trouble, no kidding.

1418
01:24:40,400 --> 01:24:42,200
Speaker 1: The monk looked at me and he said, your trouble.

1419
01:24:42,760 --> 01:24:47,400
Speaker 1: You're a problem. Hate lists Ethan. You're going so down

1420
01:24:47,439 --> 01:24:50,280
Speaker 1: for that. I cannot believe you. Just that's probably what

1421
01:24:50,320 --> 01:24:52,040
Speaker 1: the monk was saying. No, that is not what the

1422
01:24:52,080 --> 01:24:54,240
Speaker 1: monk said. That is not what the monk said. Well,

1423
01:24:54,240 --> 01:24:56,320
Speaker 1: he said you're troubling now. That part I think he

1424
01:24:56,400 --> 01:24:58,479
Speaker 1: meant like she shakes things up. She did, she's not

1425
01:24:58,520 --> 01:25:02,320
Speaker 1: happy with the status. Well, you're now on McLaughlin With McLaughlin.

1426
01:25:02,760 --> 01:25:05,599
Speaker 1: I really don't think anything you have to say, really

1427
01:25:05,640 --> 01:25:09,439
Speaker 1: at this point is is impactful because you have such

1428
01:25:09,680 --> 01:25:12,479
Speaker 1: a bias. I think Linda should wear that Trouble name

1429
01:25:12,520 --> 01:25:15,920
Speaker 1: with a badge of honor. Okay, Trouble was not exactly

1430
01:25:16,000 --> 01:25:18,320
Speaker 1: the thing you want to hear from the monk after

1431
01:25:18,479 --> 01:25:21,360
Speaker 1: you get your number, after you you listen. I got

1432
01:25:21,400 --> 01:25:23,759
Speaker 1: on the carpet on my hands and knees and I prayed,

1433
01:25:23,960 --> 01:25:26,040
Speaker 1: and I had this nice Singaporean girl and she came

1434
01:25:26,120 --> 01:25:27,800
Speaker 1: up next to me and she's like, Hi, how are you?

1435
01:25:27,880 --> 01:25:29,320
Speaker 1: I said, I'm good. How are you? She goes, good,

1436
01:25:29,320 --> 01:25:33,080
Speaker 1: you're doing it wrong? I said I am. She says yeah.

1437
01:25:33,320 --> 01:25:34,960
Speaker 1: I said okay. I said, can you show me how

1438
01:25:34,960 --> 01:25:37,280
Speaker 1: to do it? I'm like, is that is that like sacrilegious?

1439
01:25:37,320 --> 01:25:39,240
Speaker 1: She's like, well, well, you're doing is way more sacrilegious.

1440
01:25:39,280 --> 01:25:40,240
Speaker 1: Let me show you how to do it. It's a

1441
01:25:40,280 --> 01:25:43,200
Speaker 1: fantastic how you doing. So she sat down next to me.

1442
01:25:43,320 --> 01:25:45,120
Speaker 1: She said, Okay, this is how we do it was

1443
01:25:45,280 --> 01:25:47,280
Speaker 1: because it's like an eight after this part. I only

1444
01:25:47,360 --> 01:25:49,639
Speaker 1: was there ten minutes and turned around and left. I try.

1445
01:25:49,800 --> 01:25:52,080
Speaker 1: You never made it to this temple because five minutes

1446
01:25:52,080 --> 01:25:54,960
Speaker 1: in the car I was working and oh yeah, what

1447
01:25:55,080 --> 01:25:57,200
Speaker 1: was I doing to get my name? Didn't want to

1448
01:25:57,200 --> 01:26:00,479
Speaker 1: eat that much local fair, but they had They had

1449
01:26:00,680 --> 01:26:03,559
Speaker 1: American restaurants there, and I preferred to go to them.

1450
01:26:03,600 --> 01:26:05,320
Speaker 1: And that was another I have to say, one of

1451
01:26:05,360 --> 01:26:07,920
Speaker 1: the first of all. I did not complain. I never

1452
01:26:08,000 --> 01:26:10,080
Speaker 1: I never complained. I never even asked to go. You

1453
01:26:10,120 --> 01:26:12,240
Speaker 1: and your entourage wanted to go. I just came along

1454
01:26:12,280 --> 01:26:14,839
Speaker 1: to liven it up, that's all. Well, I figure everybody's

1455
01:26:14,880 --> 01:26:17,479
Speaker 1: working long hours and hard, and the last thing the

1456
01:26:17,560 --> 01:26:19,280
Speaker 1: best thing I could do is take them out and

1457
01:26:19,360 --> 01:26:23,000
Speaker 1: take them to dinner. I will say nice to everybody

1458
01:26:23,080 --> 01:26:24,600
Speaker 1: you do. I don't get credit for being you Know

1459
01:26:24,640 --> 01:26:27,000
Speaker 1: what's funny is I was about to pay you a compliment,

1460
01:26:27,000 --> 01:26:28,680
Speaker 1: but you're so busy patting yourself on the back, I

1461
01:26:28,720 --> 01:26:30,880
Speaker 1: can't get a word in edgewise. Well, so far you've

1462
01:26:30,920 --> 01:26:33,519
Speaker 1: been meeting it's coming. It's coming. Good things are worth

1463
01:26:33,560 --> 01:26:35,880
Speaker 1: waiting for. So we're on this trip and we're at

1464
01:26:35,880 --> 01:26:39,000
Speaker 1: this restaurant. Sean takes out not just our crew, our

1465
01:26:39,040 --> 01:26:41,760
Speaker 1: TV and video crew, but everybody else's TV crew and

1466
01:26:41,800 --> 01:26:45,599
Speaker 1: that we're there for the Australian guys, the other engineers

1467
01:26:45,600 --> 01:26:48,519
Speaker 1: to everybody's there, right. So the waitress comes out to

1468
01:26:48,520 --> 01:26:50,320
Speaker 1: me and she says, um. She goes, so you you

1469
01:26:50,360 --> 01:26:52,800
Speaker 1: work in you work in America. I said yeah, yeah,

1470
01:26:53,080 --> 01:26:54,759
Speaker 1: I said, he's a he's a big shot in America.

1471
01:26:54,840 --> 01:26:56,160
Speaker 1: She goes, oh, no, no, I know who he is.

1472
01:26:56,200 --> 01:26:59,120
Speaker 1: I said okay, and she says, um, he's paying for everything.

1473
01:26:59,280 --> 01:27:01,479
Speaker 1: I said, oh, yeah, flew his whole team first class.

1474
01:27:01,720 --> 01:27:04,240
Speaker 1: She's like what said, Yeah, he flew the whole team

1475
01:27:04,479 --> 01:27:06,679
Speaker 1: first class, and if first class wasn't available, he flew

1476
01:27:06,680 --> 01:27:08,640
Speaker 1: the business class. She's like, you gotta be kidding me.

1477
01:27:08,640 --> 01:27:10,240
Speaker 1: I'm like, nice, what God? And she's like and now

1478
01:27:10,240 --> 01:27:11,720
Speaker 1: he's paying for all this food. I'm like, yeah, he

1479
01:27:11,760 --> 01:27:13,760
Speaker 1: does this every day. He takes the whole team out,

1480
01:27:14,120 --> 01:27:16,639
Speaker 1: even if they're not on his team, he takes them out.

1481
01:27:16,800 --> 01:27:19,240
Speaker 1: There's something coming, folks go ahead and keep going. And

1482
01:27:19,280 --> 01:27:21,280
Speaker 1: she was like, wow, that is incredible, and I said,

1483
01:27:21,320 --> 01:27:24,599
Speaker 1: I know, you know. The Australian guys were shocked. One

1484
01:27:24,600 --> 01:27:27,280
Speaker 1: guy said to me, I've been in TV thirty years,

1485
01:27:27,400 --> 01:27:30,120
Speaker 1: and apparently I guess the people that are on their

1486
01:27:30,320 --> 01:27:32,920
Speaker 1: think that it's perfectly acceptable that you're gonna be sitting

1487
01:27:32,960 --> 01:27:34,519
Speaker 1: up in first class and that they're going to be

1488
01:27:34,600 --> 01:27:37,080
Speaker 1: back in steerage, and that is not acceptable to me.

1489
01:27:37,240 --> 01:27:39,040
Speaker 1: I mean, listen. I ran into lots of folks from

1490
01:27:39,040 --> 01:27:40,880
Speaker 1: the press corps, and every person that I would talk

1491
01:27:40,880 --> 01:27:42,760
Speaker 1: to was like, oh my god. Regardless of whether or

1492
01:27:42,800 --> 01:27:45,040
Speaker 1: not you agree with Sean Hannity or what his political

1493
01:27:45,200 --> 01:27:47,519
Speaker 1: you know, affiliations are, everybody was like, he's definitely the

1494
01:27:47,600 --> 01:27:49,639
Speaker 1: nicest one. Because I met some of the other anchors

1495
01:27:49,640 --> 01:27:52,439
Speaker 1: and they had nothing on you. No, listen, I know,

1496
01:27:52,720 --> 01:27:54,519
Speaker 1: I know what they do. I see what they do,

1497
01:27:54,720 --> 01:27:57,400
Speaker 1: and I just think it's it would be like taking

1498
01:27:57,400 --> 01:27:59,760
Speaker 1: my family. Okay, you guys sit in the back of

1499
01:27:59,800 --> 01:28:01,559
Speaker 1: the US and I'll see you later, and I'm gonna

1500
01:28:01,560 --> 01:28:03,840
Speaker 1: sit in the front row. That's ridiculous to me. Yeah, No,

1501
01:28:03,960 --> 01:28:06,800
Speaker 1: it was pretty It was pretty incredible to hit the

1502
01:28:06,840 --> 01:28:09,479
Speaker 1: amount of time we were on those airplanes. What was

1503
01:28:09,479 --> 01:28:12,400
Speaker 1: a twenty one to three hours in the air just

1504
01:28:12,439 --> 01:28:15,240
Speaker 1: forever year, and forget the time to taxi and land

1505
01:28:15,280 --> 01:28:16,960
Speaker 1: and get up to the gate and get to the

1506
01:28:17,000 --> 01:28:19,960
Speaker 1: airport early and go through customs and and get the

1507
01:28:20,000 --> 01:28:22,240
Speaker 1: checks and all that stuff. You know what, You're missing

1508
01:28:22,280 --> 01:28:25,000
Speaker 1: some of the stories. And my memory just is failing

1509
01:28:25,040 --> 01:28:27,880
Speaker 1: me because I'm still half dead. I got plenty of stories.

1510
01:28:27,920 --> 01:28:30,840
Speaker 1: I got the Dirty Dim Sung story. That's one. Dirty

1511
01:28:30,920 --> 01:28:32,760
Speaker 1: Dim Sung. I don't know about that one. What's up?

1512
01:28:32,920 --> 01:28:35,320
Speaker 1: So Dirty Dim Sung? There's this place that was written

1513
01:28:35,360 --> 01:28:37,479
Speaker 1: up in the New York Times, and your TV crew

1514
01:28:37,479 --> 01:28:39,040
Speaker 1: decides that they're going to go. I had no interest

1515
01:28:39,080 --> 01:28:40,800
Speaker 1: in this because I wasn't really eating on this trip.

1516
01:28:40,880 --> 01:28:44,120
Speaker 1: So they go to this restaurant and it's like packed right,

1517
01:28:44,120 --> 01:28:46,439
Speaker 1: everybody's waiting to get in. There's a line out the door.

1518
01:28:46,720 --> 01:28:48,000
Speaker 1: It's like one of those like you know when when

1519
01:28:48,000 --> 01:28:49,640
Speaker 1: a new restaurant opens up in New York. So like, oh,

1520
01:28:49,680 --> 01:28:51,720
Speaker 1: it's gonna be amazing. So they get in there. The

1521
01:28:51,760 --> 01:28:54,360
Speaker 1: place is dirty as all get out. There's carpet, there's

1522
01:28:54,360 --> 01:28:57,320
Speaker 1: stains all over the carpet, and the people are walking

1523
01:28:57,360 --> 01:28:59,679
Speaker 1: around serving this Dim Sung on a cart, which is normal.

1524
01:29:00,000 --> 01:29:02,920
Speaker 1: Weren't were in any shoes. So I called it the

1525
01:29:02,960 --> 01:29:06,040
Speaker 1: Dirty Dim Sun Restaurant because they're walking around on a

1526
01:29:06,080 --> 01:29:07,840
Speaker 1: dirty carpet when it was a little bit of I mean,

1527
01:29:07,840 --> 01:29:10,360
Speaker 1: I took everyone to Gordon Ramsey had a restaurant one

1528
01:29:10,360 --> 01:29:12,360
Speaker 1: of the local malls. We went there. We found the

1529
01:29:12,400 --> 01:29:16,040
Speaker 1: best local pizza place that was amazing. And I went

1530
01:29:16,080 --> 01:29:19,240
Speaker 1: to McDonald's one day and that was great for me.

1531
01:29:19,640 --> 01:29:22,680
Speaker 1: And um, what else did I where? Where else do we? Oh?

1532
01:29:22,760 --> 01:29:26,200
Speaker 1: We found a place that had like southern fried chicken

1533
01:29:26,280 --> 01:29:29,600
Speaker 1: and brisket and all that barbecue was phenomenal. It was

1534
01:29:29,640 --> 01:29:31,240
Speaker 1: so good. I think it's interesting that I had to

1535
01:29:31,280 --> 01:29:33,360
Speaker 1: travel to Singapore to get my first taste of grits.

1536
01:29:33,400 --> 01:29:35,640
Speaker 1: I think there's something very strange. The first time I

1537
01:29:35,640 --> 01:29:37,439
Speaker 1: don't like Chris the first time. Oh my god, that

1538
01:29:37,479 --> 01:29:40,080
Speaker 1: we're amazing. I was like, this is ridiculous. Yes, I

1539
01:29:40,120 --> 01:29:41,840
Speaker 1: think that we should say though, that the people of

1540
01:29:41,880 --> 01:29:46,240
Speaker 1: Singapore would absolutely the kindest, most nice. It was just

1541
01:29:46,360 --> 01:29:49,160
Speaker 1: ridiculous how nice they were. And they were nice, they

1542
01:29:49,720 --> 01:29:51,840
Speaker 1: were amazing, They were amazing. It got to the point

1543
01:29:51,880 --> 01:29:53,599
Speaker 1: where like this isn't really you got is this fake?

1544
01:29:53,640 --> 01:29:55,720
Speaker 1: Am I only a TV show? It's ridiculous how nice

1545
01:29:55,760 --> 01:29:59,000
Speaker 1: they were. They were so kind and just genuine. Listen,

1546
01:29:59,080 --> 01:30:01,880
Speaker 1: I I don't have enough to say about them in

1547
01:30:01,960 --> 01:30:04,840
Speaker 1: terms of being nice and a safe, clean city. It

1548
01:30:04,920 --> 01:30:07,000
Speaker 1: was a beautiful city. I mean, some of the pictures

1549
01:30:07,000 --> 01:30:08,960
Speaker 1: we took when we would go to that local mall

1550
01:30:09,000 --> 01:30:10,840
Speaker 1: that was on the water were amazing. Maybe we'll put

1551
01:30:10,880 --> 01:30:13,040
Speaker 1: up the crew picture that you guys took. Yeah, that

1552
01:30:13,400 --> 01:30:16,160
Speaker 1: was the Marina Bay Sands. It's beautiful. Listen. I admit

1553
01:30:16,200 --> 01:30:18,360
Speaker 1: I'm not the tourist. But I had a job to do,

1554
01:30:18,400 --> 01:30:19,840
Speaker 1: and I had to work, and I had to stay

1555
01:30:19,840 --> 01:30:22,040
Speaker 1: on New York time, and that in and of itself

1556
01:30:22,200 --> 01:30:24,639
Speaker 1: was a challenge. And the day that we interviewed the President,

1557
01:30:24,680 --> 01:30:27,040
Speaker 1: we were up for twenty two hours, and then the

1558
01:30:27,120 --> 01:30:29,160
Speaker 1: day we traveled back, I was up at thirty hours.

1559
01:30:29,200 --> 01:30:30,880
Speaker 1: So it gets a little rough sometimes. I don't know

1560
01:30:30,880 --> 01:30:35,200
Speaker 1: about you, but I had a good time. And then

1561
01:30:35,240 --> 01:30:38,280
Speaker 1: if you watch you, Sarah, Carter and Blair, it's like

1562
01:30:38,320 --> 01:30:41,599
Speaker 1: watching three sixth graders at the school lunch table just

1563
01:30:41,680 --> 01:30:44,120
Speaker 1: cracking up endlessly and you never in on the joke.

1564
01:30:44,240 --> 01:30:45,600
Speaker 1: But I think a little bit of that was just

1565
01:30:45,680 --> 01:30:48,559
Speaker 1: short shere exhaustion, because sometimes we were laughing at things

1566
01:30:48,560 --> 01:30:50,559
Speaker 1: and like about halfway through laughing, I'm like, okay, it's

1567
01:30:50,560 --> 01:30:51,960
Speaker 1: four thirty in the morning. I have no idea what

1568
01:30:52,000 --> 01:30:55,880
Speaker 1: we're laughing at. Well, four thirty in the morning. There

1569
01:30:56,000 --> 01:31:00,160
Speaker 1: was what year? I know, crazy. All right, let's get

1570
01:31:00,160 --> 01:31:02,160
Speaker 1: to our phones. Here was a good trip. I hope

1571
01:31:02,160 --> 01:31:05,000
Speaker 1: you guys like the coverage is a Patty is in Houston,

1572
01:31:05,040 --> 01:31:08,840
Speaker 1: Texas ktr H. Hey, Patty, how are you glad you called? Oh? Hey, Sean,

1573
01:31:08,920 --> 01:31:11,840
Speaker 1: I'm so glad I could get in. I'm listening to

1574
01:31:11,880 --> 01:31:14,799
Speaker 1: you all the time. Obviously watched all the coverage on Singapore.

1575
01:31:14,840 --> 01:31:17,679
Speaker 1: But and you may have addressed this on your night show.

1576
01:31:17,720 --> 01:31:22,120
Speaker 1: I'm not sure, but where were you exactly when Trump

1577
01:31:22,200 --> 01:31:24,760
Speaker 1: was walking outside and alluded to the fact that there

1578
01:31:24,800 --> 01:31:27,280
Speaker 1: was going to be a signing, Because honestly, I was

1579
01:31:27,320 --> 01:31:28,920
Speaker 1: on the edge of my seat and I thought, I

1580
01:31:28,920 --> 01:31:30,720
Speaker 1: wonder who you are right this minute? I mean were

1581
01:31:30,760 --> 01:31:32,880
Speaker 1: you Were you kind of freaking out about that or

1582
01:31:32,920 --> 01:31:36,080
Speaker 1: were you thinking? No? Look, I mean because look like

1583
01:31:36,160 --> 01:31:39,720
Speaker 1: everybody else, I mean, everyone says you're not a journalist, Hannity, Well,

1584
01:31:39,760 --> 01:31:42,360
Speaker 1: I work sources. Part of being a talk show host

1585
01:31:42,479 --> 01:31:46,000
Speaker 1: is the same as what journalists do, except they're not journalists.

1586
01:31:46,000 --> 01:31:49,639
Speaker 1: They're abusively biased. But we do objective news, and I'm

1587
01:31:49,680 --> 01:31:52,639
Speaker 1: working every source I had. I started getting I started

1588
01:31:52,640 --> 01:31:56,040
Speaker 1: getting a feeling and it was nothing me more more

1589
01:31:56,080 --> 01:31:59,120
Speaker 1: than me just reading the tea leaves that and I'll

1590
01:31:59,160 --> 01:32:00,880
Speaker 1: tell you what tipped it off. I just the only

1591
01:32:00,920 --> 01:32:02,720
Speaker 1: thing I got was a call that said that we

1592
01:32:02,720 --> 01:32:04,280
Speaker 1: were going to change the time of the interview with

1593
01:32:04,320 --> 01:32:07,000
Speaker 1: the President and we were moving it up. And when

1594
01:32:07,040 --> 01:32:09,640
Speaker 1: that happened, I and that there was gonna be a

1595
01:32:09,680 --> 01:32:12,040
Speaker 1: press conference and he was going to hold the press conference,

1596
01:32:12,040 --> 01:32:14,639
Speaker 1: and some were interpreting it, Uh, this is a failure.

1597
01:32:14,640 --> 01:32:17,439
Speaker 1: It's actually all going on time. It went according to

1598
01:32:17,520 --> 01:32:23,880
Speaker 1: schedule on time. And then then my sources started letting

1599
01:32:23,920 --> 01:32:26,400
Speaker 1: me know, wow, this is gonna be bigger than anybody thinks,

1600
01:32:26,800 --> 01:32:28,519
Speaker 1: and that there was going to be an agreement. And

1601
01:32:28,640 --> 01:32:31,000
Speaker 1: when I spoke to the President, I spoke to him

1602
01:32:31,000 --> 01:32:33,080
Speaker 1: just before he did that early morning press conference, and

1603
01:32:33,120 --> 01:32:35,240
Speaker 1: I was in the room for the press conference, and

1604
01:32:35,360 --> 01:32:37,800
Speaker 1: that's when I knew that they just before that that

1605
01:32:37,880 --> 01:32:40,360
Speaker 1: they had signed a deal, that the deal will was

1606
01:32:40,479 --> 01:32:44,200
Speaker 1: being signed, etcetera, etcetera. So it was good. I mean, um,

1607
01:32:44,200 --> 01:32:47,400
Speaker 1: this is history. It's it's amazing that, you know. I

1608
01:32:47,760 --> 01:32:50,960
Speaker 1: had some friends of mine monitoring some coverage, and I

1609
01:32:51,000 --> 01:32:53,200
Speaker 1: will tell you the fact that the media would put

1610
01:32:53,240 --> 01:32:59,360
Speaker 1: more effort resources into Stormy Daniels and uh and superfluous

1611
01:32:59,360 --> 01:33:02,080
Speaker 1: issues when you got all of these concessions that have

1612
01:33:02,120 --> 01:33:04,240
Speaker 1: been made by Kim Jong un and then say, how

1613
01:33:04,360 --> 01:33:08,200
Speaker 1: dare the president actually get a photo with this man? Well,

1614
01:33:08,680 --> 01:33:11,800
Speaker 1: you know, the guy stopped firing missiles, the guy released hostages,

1615
01:33:11,840 --> 01:33:14,559
Speaker 1: the guy literally did you know, took down one of

1616
01:33:14,600 --> 01:33:17,439
Speaker 1: his nuclear launch sites. The guys talking now about taking

1617
01:33:17,479 --> 01:33:19,880
Speaker 1: down all of his nuclear lawnch sites and getting rid

1618
01:33:19,920 --> 01:33:22,479
Speaker 1: of his weapons. And we have a possibility that we

1619
01:33:22,520 --> 01:33:25,360
Speaker 1: didn't have before. And I think it's all because of strength.

1620
01:33:25,400 --> 01:33:27,240
Speaker 1: I don't think any of it was because of weakness.

1621
01:33:27,280 --> 01:33:29,880
Speaker 1: And I think they also fear Trump. I think there

1622
01:33:29,960 --> 01:33:33,480
Speaker 1: is a genuine belief that Donald Trump means what he says,

1623
01:33:33,479 --> 01:33:35,599
Speaker 1: because he does. And I think that played a very

1624
01:33:35,600 --> 01:33:38,000
Speaker 1: big role in it. And in that sense, I think

1625
01:33:38,040 --> 01:33:41,559
Speaker 1: the Iranians watching the world is watching, and I think

1626
01:33:41,640 --> 01:33:44,320
Speaker 1: it's you know, do we want a world where North

1627
01:33:44,400 --> 01:33:47,680
Speaker 1: Korea doesn't have nuclear weapons? Of course we do. Is

1628
01:33:47,720 --> 01:33:49,920
Speaker 1: it better for them? Yeah? Is it better for us? Yeah?

1629
01:33:49,960 --> 01:33:52,320
Speaker 1: It's it better for their people? Absolutely. Is it an

1630
01:33:52,360 --> 01:33:55,240
Speaker 1: opportunity for them to to grow their economy and get

1631
01:33:55,280 --> 01:33:58,559
Speaker 1: their people out of poverty that are starving. That's tell

1632
01:33:58,560 --> 01:34:00,760
Speaker 1: me what's bad about that, Joan. And don't you think

1633
01:34:00,800 --> 01:34:03,360
Speaker 1: everything Trump does is very much intentional? I know that

1634
01:34:04,680 --> 01:34:07,160
Speaker 1: everything make you feel you know that, oh, he's just

1635
01:34:07,200 --> 01:34:10,479
Speaker 1: off the cuff whatever. I don't I think if he's

1636
01:34:10,479 --> 01:34:13,479
Speaker 1: if he's making uh Kim jong and feel good, he's

1637
01:34:13,520 --> 01:34:16,000
Speaker 1: doing that on purpose. I mean, really, would you go

1638
01:34:16,040 --> 01:34:17,680
Speaker 1: in there and be a jerk and then try to

1639
01:34:17,720 --> 01:34:21,640
Speaker 1: get something accomplished? I don't think so. I just flabbergasted

1640
01:34:21,680 --> 01:34:24,080
Speaker 1: by it all. One of the things that's happened to

1641
01:34:24,280 --> 01:34:27,759
Speaker 1: is that everybody's getting used to the president. They're getting

1642
01:34:28,200 --> 01:34:30,640
Speaker 1: you know, it's like certain things. He gave an impromptu

1643
01:34:30,680 --> 01:34:32,519
Speaker 1: press conference. I was in the air at the time

1644
01:34:33,160 --> 01:34:35,720
Speaker 1: with with Steve Doocy and then the press conference. I

1645
01:34:35,720 --> 01:34:37,960
Speaker 1: wish my people would would stand like it, show me

1646
01:34:38,000 --> 01:34:40,519
Speaker 1: the respect that they showed Kim Jong un Um and

1647
01:34:40,600 --> 01:34:42,200
Speaker 1: later said, of course I was kidding. You know, you

1648
01:34:42,240 --> 01:34:44,920
Speaker 1: don't understand sarcasm. And the fact is is that the

1649
01:34:44,960 --> 01:34:48,200
Speaker 1: American people, it just is like water off a duck's back.

1650
01:34:48,320 --> 01:34:50,760
Speaker 1: They understand that he moves at the speeder Trump and

1651
01:34:50,760 --> 01:34:52,720
Speaker 1: he wants to get things done. And he's not your

1652
01:34:52,720 --> 01:34:56,280
Speaker 1: typical president and he's never going to conform into this political,

1653
01:34:56,920 --> 01:35:01,320
Speaker 1: politically correct establishment animal that people think the president should be.

1654
01:35:01,680 --> 01:35:04,719
Speaker 1: And I think people are now they're building an affinity

1655
01:35:04,760 --> 01:35:07,240
Speaker 1: because they understand his rhythm or who he is more,

1656
01:35:07,479 --> 01:35:10,320
Speaker 1: They trust him more. They in spite of a phony narrative,

1657
01:35:10,360 --> 01:35:12,960
Speaker 1: that they see that he gets things done. And so

1658
01:35:13,200 --> 01:35:15,439
Speaker 1: I think that's a big problem for the Democrats, especially

1659
01:35:15,479 --> 01:35:18,000
Speaker 1: heading into the mid terms. Patty, I gotta run, which

1660
01:35:18,040 --> 01:35:20,479
Speaker 1: I had more time here, right, Hannity, Tonight, nine Eastern,

1661
01:35:20,520 --> 01:35:23,320
Speaker 1: Fox News, we have the news the rest of the

1662
01:35:23,320 --> 01:35:26,439
Speaker 1: media would never dare cover, not the least of which

1663
01:35:26,520 --> 01:35:29,360
