I think she worked at the SPA. 127 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,040 Speaker 6: I think so. I think that was one of the 128 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 6: people he stole her. And by the way, she had 129 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 6: no complaints about us, as you know, none whatsoever. 130 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:11,599 Speaker 3: Okay, So what you just heard Trump say there is 131 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:17,480 Speaker 3: Epstein was stealing employees from the mar A Lago SPA, 132 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:20,919 Speaker 3: which she also very cleverly got an advertisement in for. 133 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,839 Speaker 3: During this question Crystal, he said best spaw in the world. 134 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:28,719 Speaker 3: So that's the new contention from Trump about their relationship, 135 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 3: or that's the current contention from Trump about their relationship 136 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 3: falling apart, is that Epstein was plucking people from mar 137 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 3: A Lago and hiring them. Trump was asked there about 138 00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 3: Virginia Jeffrey, obviously one of the most high profile Epstein 139 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 3: accusers who recently passed and Crystal. Let's just take a 140 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 3: look at this clip of Jeffrey talking about her experience 141 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 3: in the mar A Lago spa. 142 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:56,840 Speaker 8: This day two, I'm working at mar A Lago, loving it. 143 00:06:56,920 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 8: I'm working in the spa area. I was reading about 144 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 8: anatomy and massage, and that's when Geelynn came up to 145 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:06,400 Speaker 8: me and said, oh my god, you're reading a book 146 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 8: about massage, and you know, long story short. She told 147 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 8: me that she knew of a man who was looking 148 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 8: for a traveling massuse and if he liked me, then 149 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 8: I would get educated and I would become a real 150 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 8: massage therapist. So yeah, I mean, it was a dream 151 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 8: of a lifetime until I got there and the abuse 152 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:29,400 Speaker 8: was immediate. 153 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 9: It has been reported that they would pray on young 154 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 9: girls who were vulnerable. 155 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 8: She could smell the vulnerability on a person. I told 156 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 8: him a little bit about my past and how I'd 157 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 8: been abused, so immediately it was like the Cheshire smile 158 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 8: is what I call it. And I asked her, I said, 159 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 8: why are you having all these girls come in and 160 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 8: sleep with your boyfriend? And she was like, so I 161 00:07:57,880 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 8: don't have to do it all the time, you know. 162 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:00,560 Speaker 4: So she made like a joke. 163 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 8: She did it because she loves the control over people. 164 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 8: Jeffrey was a sick pedophile, but she was the mastermind. 165 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 3: So that's Jeffrey on CBS this Morning with Gil King 166 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 3: talking about how Glene Maxwell recruited her while she was 167 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 3: working in the spa at mar A Lago. So Crystal 168 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 3: Trump is basically saying, yes, that she worked at Marlogo. 169 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 3: Jeffrey Epsin took her from mar A Lago and one 170 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:32,560 Speaker 3: of the reasons that he says he ended his friendship 171 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 3: with Jeffrey Epstein is because Epstein was poaching employees. 172 00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 2: Basically, yeah, I mean, in his words, he said he 173 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 2: stole her and Virginia Giffray when she worked at mar 174 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 2: A Lago, she was, you know, when she was groomed 175 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 2: by Glene Maxwell as she was sixteen. And a few 176 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 2: things that I think the most eyebrow raising part of 177 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:55,199 Speaker 2: these comments is, first of all, we've had a bunch 178 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,480 Speaker 2: of different stories about why exactly they fell out, and 179 00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 2: reporters have dug in and said, well, actually, it turns 180 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 2: out Jeffrey Epstein continued to be on the log of 181 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:07,559 Speaker 2: guests of members at Mara a Lago all the way 182 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:09,680 Speaker 2: up until I believe it was two thousand and seven, 183 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:13,120 Speaker 2: even after his prosecution. So I think that's important to note. 184 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 2: But it raises a lot of questions about it's what 185 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:20,080 Speaker 2: did you know? You know, Donald Trump, what did you 186 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:23,560 Speaker 2: know about what was going on here? Because you have, 187 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 2: around the same time before they're falling out, you have 188 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 2: that infamous quote from Trump where he's talking about how 189 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:33,559 Speaker 2: Jeffrey likes him young, and now you have this admission 190 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:37,560 Speaker 2: from him that he knew that Jeffrey was quote stealing 191 00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 2: young underage girls from mar A Lago and is claiming 192 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 2: that's the reason for their falling out. 193 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:44,960 Speaker 5: If that's true or not, we don't know. 194 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 2: The other possibilities are that have been floated as oh, 195 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 2: he was being a quote unquote creep with some of 196 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:52,079 Speaker 2: the members daughters. 197 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:53,559 Speaker 5: That's why that's like the. 198 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 2: Most favorable interpretation for Trump. Epstein has claimed, apparently according 199 00:09:57,800 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 2: to Michael Wolfe, that it was over a real estate 200 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,560 Speaker 2: trans Epstein claims he was the one actually that broke 201 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,320 Speaker 2: off relationship with Trump because he realized Trump was a 202 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 2: crook over this real estate transaction. But you know, it 203 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 2: seems like a pretty stunning admission that he knew that 204 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:16,840 Speaker 2: Virginia Giuffrey had essentially been again in his words, stolen 205 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:21,559 Speaker 2: from mar A Lago by Jeffrey Epstein. And given what 206 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 2: we know about how close their relationship was, it's just 207 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 2: very difficult to imagine that he didn't know some of 208 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 2: what was going on at the very at the very least. 209 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:35,559 Speaker 3: It's really wild when you're addressing a sex trafficking story 210 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 3: to use the language of stole. Yeah, that's a completely 211 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 3: crazy thing to do, like insensitive, just first of all. 212 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 3: But I mean, obviously we're talking about Donald Trump, but 213 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:52,079 Speaker 3: it's even for him, it just seems so bizarre. 214 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:55,319 Speaker 2: Crystal, Yeah, it does. And it also calls to mind. 215 00:10:55,600 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 2: You know, another story from Epstein. Victim who claimed that 216 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 2: you know, she was in called into this meeting with 217 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:07,440 Speaker 2: Jeffrey Epstein. Donald Trump was there. She was in some 218 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 2: running shorts and Trump was looking her up and down 219 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 2: and Epstein allegedly says to her, no, no, no, she's 220 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:16,439 Speaker 2: not for you. There's also reporting, you know, alleging that 221 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:18,560 Speaker 2: and this is again this is from Michael Wolfe that 222 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:22,200 Speaker 2: they shared girlfriends. Now the girlfriend in particular that he 223 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 2: knows about was of age. Just to be totally clear, 224 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,680 Speaker 2: but that was happening around the time that Trump wrote 225 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:32,360 Speaker 2: that wonderful secret, weird birthday letter with the picture of 226 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 2: the nude woman. And Michael wolffully is that the quote 227 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 2: unquote wonderful secret that Trump was alluding to there was 228 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 2: the shared girlfriend. Just to give you a sense of 229 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 2: just how close that relationship apparently was and how they 230 00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 2: would sort of trade girls back and forth or share 231 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 2: girls like they were objects or articles of clothing. 232 00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:58,960 Speaker 5: So you know, that's part of why. 233 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, the language of while he stole her from me 234 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 2: is particularly disturbing and frankly disgusting in this context. 235 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:11,200 Speaker 3: And Jeffrey obviously a very troubled and tragic life. 236 00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:13,280 Speaker 4: She said she didn't. 237 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:16,520 Speaker 3: She basically said she had no knowledge of Trump doing 238 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 3: anything wrong. That's the evidence that that's the sort of 239 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 3: storyline that is now obviously being played out in real 240 00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:28,200 Speaker 3: time as people try to piece together some of these 241 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,720 Speaker 3: puzzle to piece together some of these puzzle pieces that 242 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:35,160 Speaker 3: we're getting just from Trump's own comments, Let's put a 243 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 3: three on the screen. This is reporting on Maxwell's conditions 244 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:42,120 Speaker 3: laid out by her attorneys for testifying. She wants a 245 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 3: grant of formal immunity. The interview can't happen at the 246 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,840 Speaker 3: correctional facility where she's serving her sentence. To prepare adequately 247 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 3: for any Congressional deposition and to ensure accuracy and fairness, 248 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:54,480 Speaker 3: they say, we would require the committee's questions in advanced surprise. 249 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:58,000 Speaker 3: Question would be both inappropriate and unproductive. The interview would 250 00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:00,840 Speaker 3: be scheduled quote only after the resolution of her Supreme 251 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 3: Court petition and her forthcoming habeas petition. So that's if 252 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 3: she were to speak with members of Congress. 253 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:10,680 Speaker 5: And questions in advance. Isn't that interesting? 254 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, and Grissel I think they can probably predict. 255 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 3: Most of the questions Congress might have at this point. 256 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 3: They don't really even need that to be honest. A 257 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:20,640 Speaker 3: four This is reporting from The Guardian back in twenty 258 00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 3: twenty two that Gallaine Maxwell had been moved to a 259 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 3: low security prison in Florida. Just to sort of detail 260 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:33,960 Speaker 3: about how Maxwell has been treated. That I think is important, Crystal, 261 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:38,240 Speaker 3: because right now we're we talked about this last week. 262 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:41,760 Speaker 3: I think it was someone on Newsmax referred to Maxwell's 263 00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 3: potentially a victim, and it's. 264 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,760 Speaker 4: Possible Greg Kelly, Yeah, Greg Kelly, Yeah, it's. 265 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 3: Possible that we're sort of on the cusp of a 266 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 3: weird rehabilitation of Glaine Maxwell. As people on the right, well, 267 00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:58,200 Speaker 3: let's say, as the Trump administration tries to coax her 268 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:03,800 Speaker 3: into cool co operating or not cooperating. She obviously has 269 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:07,680 Speaker 3: spent two days with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche last week. 270 00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:11,079 Speaker 3: We saw her carrying boxes of information in and out 271 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 3: of that. So is she going to cooperate against potentially 272 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:19,920 Speaker 3: Trump enemies? Is she going to cooperate in a way 273 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,720 Speaker 3: that exonerates Donald Trump? These are the big questions that 274 00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 3: we have going forward. 275 00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:29,680 Speaker 2: Of course, I think the detail about her being moved 276 00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 2: to this you know, lower security, more cushy kind of 277 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 2: a prison situation, not the federal person as ever, you know. 278 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 5: Entirely comfortable for people. 279 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 2: But I think it's important too because it reflects some 280 00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 2: echoes of the way that Jeffrey Epstein was treated when 281 00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 2: he was in County prison down in Palm Beach. After 282 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 2: securing that sweetheart deal, he only had to be in 283 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 2: the prison cell at night. But there's reporting that Allegacy 284 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 2: continues to continue to molest underage girls even while he 285 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,440 Speaker 2: served out his prison sentence, which was shortened from and 286 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 2: believe eighteen months down to something like thirteen months. You know, 287 00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 2: after he serves the thirteen months, then he's just you know, 288 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 2: able to be at his house, supposedly supposed to be 289 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 2: on you know, house ar USTs. But there's a video 290 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 2: of him going to the airport and doing whatever the 291 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 2: hell he wanted to do. So, you know, I think 292 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,760 Speaker 2: that's part of why it's eyebrow raising. Glene Maxwell getting 293 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:26,560 Speaker 2: moved into kushier circumstances as well, given that, you know, 294 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:30,840 Speaker 2: the heinousness of the crimes of which she is accused, 295 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 2: let alone the crime she was actually convicted of. And 296 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 2: that's the other piece here too, is we know that 297 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 2: the government did not go to trial with nearly all 298 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:42,080 Speaker 2: of the evidence or any sort of an attempt to 299 00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 2: truly expose the extent of this pedophile ring. We know 300 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:51,840 Speaker 2: that they went with, you know, very narrow allegations, just 301 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 2: enough to make sure they could secure a conviction. But 302 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 2: she's she's not in there for life. She's in there 303 00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 2: for twenty years, and it's very possible that she ends 304 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 2: up not serving all of that time, even because you've 305 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 2: got her appeal to the Supreme Court, which the government 306 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:08,960 Speaker 2: can decide they're not going to contest. And she says, hey, 307 00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:10,640 Speaker 2: I was part of that sweetheart deal. I was one 308 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 2: of those co conspirators. And actually I believe she was 309 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:14,440 Speaker 2: one of the ones that was actually named in that 310 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 2: sweetheart deal. So, hey, we had a deal. A deal's 311 00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 2: a deal. What do you do in Donald Trump going 312 00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 2: back on this? I know you're the deal man. That's 313 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 2: what her lawyers say. So government could decide just not 314 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 2: to fight at the Supreme Court, or you can end 315 00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 2: up with some sort of a pardon in exchange for 316 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 2: some sort of limited hangout testimony that effectively exonerates Trump. 317 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:37,840 Speaker 2: And I think, you know, Michael will floater this, I 318 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 2: think this is probably correct. 319 00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 5: That meaning with. 320 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 2: Todd Blinch was both to profer like, well, here's what 321 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 2: I got on these other guys, and here's what I 322 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 2: got on you. And so is it more painful for 323 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 2: this information I have on you, Donald Trump to come out, 324 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 2: or is it more painful, you know, to take the 325 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 2: political hit of pardoning a convicted sex criminal who is 326 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 2: by all accounts, you know, a monster who actually deserves 327 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:03,680 Speaker 2: to spend the rest of her life in prison, not 328 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:05,359 Speaker 2: just twenty years. 329 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:05,720 Speaker 6: Yeah. 330 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:07,639 Speaker 4: I mean a couple of things that people forget. 331 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:12,520 Speaker 3: One is that Glene Maxwell is accused by many of 332 00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 3: the women of actually participating, not just grooming. Right, she 333 00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:19,080 Speaker 3: gets thought of as the sort of caricature grooming type, and. 334 00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:20,439 Speaker 4: She definitely was doing all of that. 335 00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 3: But in addition, she is accused also of participating in 336 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:30,920 Speaker 3: the abuse, in the sexual abuse of women, so on. 337 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 4: Top of that as well. 338 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 3: The other thing I want to mention is the Supreme 339 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:38,520 Speaker 3: Court appeal is really serious because that's sweet I went 340 00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:42,960 Speaker 3: back and was reading Maxwell's suits and reading her appeal. 341 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 3: It actually is really serious because of how terrible that 342 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:50,240 Speaker 3: sweetheart deal was in Florida years ago. Now that's how 343 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 3: bad the deal was, is that she has a case 344 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 3: right now because that's it was so sweeping in its 345 00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:00,880 Speaker 3: grants of immunity. Now, I don't know how it's going 346 00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:04,280 Speaker 3: to turn out, but it's obviously not a sort of 347 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:08,080 Speaker 3: joke appeal that's going to get brushed aside. She really 348 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:13,400 Speaker 3: was seriously probably protected. So we'll see going forward. I mean, 349 00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 3: obviously a lot has changed since the deal was made 350 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:20,880 Speaker 3: in Florida all those years ago. But man, Christal, if 351 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:25,240 Speaker 3: that's successful at the Supreme Court, it's just unbelievable. And 352 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 3: maybe that actually contributes to the government's position here. 353 00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 4: As they speak with her, as ag Blanche speaks. 354 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:34,679 Speaker 3: With her, maybe they're taking seriously the threat that she 355 00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:38,320 Speaker 3: gets out on appeal and they're looking to keep her 356 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:40,800 Speaker 3: locked up on some lower charge and part of a deal. 357 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:43,199 Speaker 3: They're just all kinds of funny business that could be 358 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:45,679 Speaker 3: happening behind the scenes here, and we really have no 359 00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 3: idea what's going on. Blanche has said he'll let us 360 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:51,919 Speaker 3: know when it's appropriate, and that is just that we 361 00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:54,439 Speaker 3: know the government just had two days of conversations with 362 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:55,440 Speaker 3: Glenn Maxwell. 363 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 4: It would be good to get that information sooner rather 364 00:18:58,560 --> 00:18:59,000 Speaker 4: than later. 365 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:02,600 Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean, and anyone who's counting at this 366 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:05,320 Speaker 2: point on the federal government like exposing the truth about 367 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 2: the like, I'm sorry. 368 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:07,640 Speaker 5: That's it's not happen. 369 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:10,879 Speaker 2: It's not happen, right, because let's say, I mean, the 370 00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:14,440 Speaker 2: Glain testimony obviously is a joke because she's self interested. 371 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 2: She wants a pardon, so she has No, her incentive 372 00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:20,920 Speaker 2: is to put forward whatever information is convenient for this 373 00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:24,760 Speaker 2: particular administration. And I think you know, at this point, 374 00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:29,119 Speaker 2: the two biggest questions are what are the implications for Trump, 375 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:32,760 Speaker 2: like in what ways was Trump involved? And number two, 376 00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:35,400 Speaker 2: that Intel ties we're not getting that from this administration. 377 00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 2: That ship has sailed and whatever information they put on 378 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 2: at this point, there's you couldn't trust that it would 379 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:44,680 Speaker 2: be a complete reflection of what was going on whatsoever. 380 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 2: So it really is left to journalists to try to dig. 381 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:50,640 Speaker 2: It's left to whistleblowers from within, you know, the government, 382 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 2: who want to expose what is really going on here, 383 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:58,040 Speaker 2: because certainly you know you're not getting it from Trump, Cash, 384 00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:03,320 Speaker 2: Dan Bongino, Pambondi, not Galeine Maxwell, not happening at this point. 385 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not going to be I really, like I 386 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:06,800 Speaker 3: said that, it's not going to be a complete picture. 387 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 3: I mean, to save their own asses, let's put a 388 00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 3: five on the screen. They may put out drips and drabs. 389 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:16,919 Speaker 3: So this is polling. This is new CBSU go of 390 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 3: polling that shows Trump's approval rating among younger voters. So 391 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 3: this is eighteen to twenty nine year olds, absolutely cratering. 392 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 3: It's down twenty seven points. And one of the interesting 393 00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:31,800 Speaker 3: things to take a look at here is that he 394 00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:35,959 Speaker 3: actually was above water with younger voters when he took office. 395 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:38,920 Speaker 3: So as of February he had fifty five percent approval. 396 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:39,840 Speaker 4: That is now down. 397 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 3: Twenty eight percent approval with eighteen to twenty nine year 398 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:48,199 Speaker 3: olds and crystal. It doesn't take a time machine to 399 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 3: reflect on how powerfully Republicans were celebrating those numbers. Just 400 00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:57,240 Speaker 3: a couple of months ago. This was seen as the 401 00:20:57,320 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 3: kind of key that unlocked the future of the Republican park. 402 00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:03,560 Speaker 3: What happened in November and then as Trump took office 403 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 3: and it felt like kind of the cultural wind was 404 00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 3: at his back to Republicans, that there had been a 405 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 3: vibe shift. He you have a Republican president with fifty 406 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:13,960 Speaker 3: five percent approval ratings for people voters under the age 407 00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 3: of thirty, very unusual and felt like a new era 408 00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 3: for Republicans, and all of that has all those gains 409 00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:25,080 Speaker 3: have been a race for Republicans. Now, to be clear, 410 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 3: this was this dip had been happening steadily since he 411 00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 3: took office, so it was going down, you know, basically 412 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:36,520 Speaker 3: just on a if you look at the graphs. It's 413 00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 3: not like a sudden jump in any way in his 414 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:43,159 Speaker 3: disapproval and or a dip in his approval. But I 415 00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:45,680 Speaker 3: can't imagine that this is going to help those numbers 416 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:46,919 Speaker 3: a month from now, Crystal. 417 00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:49,000 Speaker 4: It could be the bleeding could be even worse. 418 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's right. And you know, eighteen to 419 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:57,720 Speaker 2: twenty nine year olds zoomers. I think that's entirely Zoomer cohort. 420 00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:01,760 Speaker 2: There there are for graps. You know, they're they're not 421 00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:05,160 Speaker 2: die hard Democrats by and large. They're not die hard 422 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:08,160 Speaker 2: Republicans by and large, you know. And I always thought 423 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 2: the appeal with Trump was limited to Trump, not necessarily 424 00:22:11,880 --> 00:22:14,640 Speaker 2: to the broader Republican Party, because he is the sort 425 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 2: of singular cultural figure, and so they're up for grabs, 426 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:22,680 Speaker 2: and I think they like most of the country. It's 427 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:26,560 Speaker 2: also a real danger that with the incredible failings and 428 00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:29,040 Speaker 2: disappointments of both of these political parties, that there's a 429 00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:33,600 Speaker 2: real slide just into nihilism, where you know, they I 430 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 2: think there's a danger they sort of give up on 431 00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 2: the possibility of politics, electoral politics delivering for them whatsoever, 432 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:41,879 Speaker 2: which is how you end up with this sense of 433 00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:44,879 Speaker 2: like voting just on vibes when you don't believe that 434 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:47,679 Speaker 2: it really matters for your material condition which party is 435 00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:49,840 Speaker 2: in power, then you just vote for whoever seems like 436 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 2: cool or is like pissing off the people that you want. 437 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 5: To piss off. 438 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:56,040 Speaker 2: So yeah, I think it's I think it's very I 439 00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 2: think it's very interesting, important and relevant the shift among 440 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:01,240 Speaker 2: young voters. And then we're going to talk later in 441 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:04,679 Speaker 2: the show about how enthusiastic young voters are about Zoron 442 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:07,399 Speaker 2: and young men in particular. He's winning young men in 443 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:10,119 Speaker 2: these polls by like he's getting like eighty five percent 444 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:13,439 Speaker 2: of young men in New York City. So again, it 445 00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:19,439 Speaker 2: just shows you the anti establishment, the desire for change, 446 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:22,920 Speaker 2: for true change, and the desire for you know, true 447 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 2: sort of anti establishment politics among a younger generation that 448 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:31,679 Speaker 2: is being shut out of, you know, sort of normal 449 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:36,160 Speaker 2: trajectories to basic prosperity in this current status quo. 450 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 3: Well in New York City is obviously also one of 451 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:40,679 Speaker 3: the places that Republicans are really excited to see a 452 00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:46,560 Speaker 3: change among anti establishment younger voters, voters from different minority groups. 453 00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 3: And now I bet there are some Trump Zoron voters. 454 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 3: In fact that actually when we talked to zoron In 455 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:56,760 Speaker 3: at this point, it was November, so I think it 456 00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:59,840 Speaker 3: was later in November, early December. He had just been 457 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 3: out on the streets talking like AOC had done after 458 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:06,879 Speaker 3: the election, to people who voted for Trump who may 459 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:09,680 Speaker 3: be up for grabs for him. And I don't think 460 00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 3: it's crazy to imagine that he snatched some of them 461 00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 3: crystal at all. 462 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, no, not at all. 463 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:17,640 Speaker 2: And I have to say, and this does obviously connect 464 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:21,040 Speaker 2: to Epstein. You know, Israel is becoming a real lightning, 465 00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:25,120 Speaker 2: broad sort of litmus test among these types of voters, 466 00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:30,119 Speaker 2: because it stands in for are you an independent person, 467 00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:32,879 Speaker 2: do you have principles? Are you willing to go up 468 00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:36,680 Speaker 2: against entrenched interest? And so if you're towing the APAC 469 00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 2: line on Israel, you are automatically going to be greeted 470 00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:46,360 Speaker 2: with skepticism from the vast majority of young, unaffiliated voters. 471 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:50,000 Speaker 2: And so, you know, I think we see that it's 472 00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:52,239 Speaker 2: certainly in the democratic part, but we really see that 473 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 2: becoming an important signaling and dividing line within the American 474 00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 2: electorate in a way that I think politicians haven't wrapped 475 00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:03,199 Speaker 2: their head around because if you ask people what's your 476 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 2: number one issue, very few people are going to say 477 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:08,639 Speaker 2: Israel Palestine. But I think it's become this sort of 478 00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:12,880 Speaker 2: like litmus test gatekeeping issue where if you can't get 479 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 2: past that hurdle of showings you have some level of 480 00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 2: independence principle and just like basic morality, then people are 481 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:23,919 Speaker 2: not really going to hear you on whatever is the 482 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:25,680 Speaker 2: rest of what you're trying to sell them. 483 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:28,400 Speaker 3: You know, the way you just put that, I think 484 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:34,159 Speaker 3: applies almost exactly to Epstein, because it's like it is 485 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:37,679 Speaker 3: a litmus test question for people who followed it closely, 486 00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:39,919 Speaker 3: which are which is in a lot of cases like 487 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 3: the Younger Cohort, because you know a lot of these 488 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:46,160 Speaker 3: these documentaries, I mean, everybody cares about this, but nobody's 489 00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 3: going to say that it's their top issue that they're 490 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:50,879 Speaker 3: voting on, just like you mentioned Crystal in that case. 491 00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 3: But it is sort of a key vibe litmus test 492 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 3: if you're being and this is it may sound ridiculous 493 00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:02,360 Speaker 3: to people like us who are are cynical, but it 494 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:04,400 Speaker 3: is that type of test as to whether you are 495 00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:08,480 Speaker 3: being authentic, whether you're being genuine. If you can't come 496 00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:11,359 Speaker 3: to the table and open up about Epstein. And this 497 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 3: was I think for Cash Battala and Dan Bongino and 498 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:19,320 Speaker 3: others on the right who are now having to face 499 00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:23,160 Speaker 3: what the administration is actually doing. Even Pambondi, they understood 500 00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:26,639 Speaker 3: that looking like you cared about the Epstein case, and 501 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:28,440 Speaker 3: by the way, I think they did until they got 502 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:30,240 Speaker 3: into government. I don't know about pan Bondi, but I 503 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:34,600 Speaker 3: think Dan Bongino and Cash Bertel, you know, they were 504 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:38,480 Speaker 3: ready to expose the deep state and went into the 505 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:42,640 Speaker 3: deep state and realized that that's a little bit harder 506 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,320 Speaker 3: than it seems because some of your own people are 507 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:49,359 Speaker 3: going to be implicated, There's no question about it. And 508 00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:52,400 Speaker 3: they sort of understood that because it's a litmus test, 509 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:54,080 Speaker 3: you can get out ahead of it and pass with 510 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:57,879 Speaker 3: flying collars by saying I'm like getting to the bottom 511 00:26:57,960 --> 00:26:58,199 Speaker 3: of this. 512 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:00,240 Speaker 4: And then for that to. 513 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 3: Be kind of baked into the anti establishment cake, which 514 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 3: the Epstein case absolutely was, and to fail the litmus test, 515 00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:09,880 Speaker 3: it's just I think it's devastating too. 516 00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:11,840 Speaker 4: And I'm not saying this in a goofy way. 517 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,040 Speaker 3: I think it's devastating to the vibes like it's devastating 518 00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:18,440 Speaker 3: to the cultural momentum that Republicans thought that they had, 519 00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:21,720 Speaker 3: and again, like cynically, I think both of us would 520 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 3: have predicted that was never going to actually last. But 521 00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:26,639 Speaker 3: you know, you are going to see I think you 522 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:30,200 Speaker 3: are going to see some information be released from the 523 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:36,119 Speaker 3: Trump administration that is described as or framed as revelatory 524 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 3: and framed as solving the case and you know, revealing 525 00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:45,960 Speaker 3: new details and being transparent in the name of full 526 00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:48,800 Speaker 3: disclosure and all of that. But at this point, Chris, 527 00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,200 Speaker 3: I think it's pretty clear there's no benefit of the debt, 528 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:54,879 Speaker 3: there's no benefit of the doubt whatsoever. This is not 529 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:57,240 Speaker 3: going to be You can't trust that any of it's complete. 530 00:27:57,920 --> 00:27:59,680 Speaker 4: They've lost it. It started with the binders. 531 00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:02,560 Speaker 3: Now there's the video, there's the flip flops, and we're 532 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:04,280 Speaker 3: going to get to the video actually with Nick Bryant 533 00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:06,119 Speaker 3: as well, because there's new details on that front. 534 00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, and just really quickly, last thing before we get 535 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:12,639 Speaker 2: to Nick, just to clearly draw out the connection I 536 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:14,879 Speaker 2: was claiming between you know, the issue of Israel and 537 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:19,359 Speaker 2: issue of Epstein. People are noticing that in the influencer world, 538 00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 2: the people who are most in the like nothing to 539 00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:21,680 Speaker 2: see here. 540 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 5: Let's move on. 541 00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:24,639 Speaker 2: Camp are also some of the biggest Israel defenders, and 542 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:29,040 Speaker 2: obviously of the Epstein Masad connection, So they are related, 543 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:32,080 Speaker 2: they are linked issues, and so I don't think it's 544 00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:35,960 Speaker 2: a surprise that in you know, anti establishment circles, which 545 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:39,000 Speaker 2: is brodswath of American society at this point, that these 546 00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:41,120 Speaker 2: two things are connected, and both of them serve as 547 00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 2: these sort of litmus tests of whether you are honest, truthful, principled, 548 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:49,239 Speaker 2: you know, and not captured by entrenched interests that are 549 00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:51,840 Speaker 2: going to keep you from truly, you know, serving people 550 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:53,600 Speaker 2: and doing what you claim that you're there to do well. 551 00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 3: And I think it's the other way around as well, 552 00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 3: in that some of the staunchest defenders of Israel have said, Okay, 553 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:03,200 Speaker 3: the people asking questions about Jeffrey Epstein are also the 554 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 3: staunchers opponents of Israel, So I no longer care about 555 00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 3: the Epstein case or this is all sort of the 556 00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 3: Epstein case is just smoking mirrors, which is also a 557 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 3: really unfortunate situation for everybody who cares about getting to 558 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:20,840 Speaker 3: the bottom of this case and understanding exactly I mean, 559 00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:24,720 Speaker 3: first of all, getting justice for the victims and understanding 560 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:28,960 Speaker 3: the way that our government and our foreign policy actually works. 561 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:30,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's right, all right. 562 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:32,680 Speaker 3: Let's go ahead and bring in Nick Bryant now to 563 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:37,920 Speaker 3: help us break down the story further.

I 577 00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:20,800 Speaker 10: would pitch them, and then I could see the cognitive 578 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 10: dissonance playing out right before me. They would think to themselves, 579 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:27,040 Speaker 10: this is a really horrible story. I need to help 580 00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:30,880 Speaker 10: Nick Bryant, or I can just write Nick briand off 581 00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 10: as crazy and have a nice. 582 00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 7: Meal with my family tonight. 583 00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 10: So I worked seven years on that book, and I 584 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:40,920 Speaker 10: went as deep into that type of a realm as 585 00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:43,560 Speaker 10: someone can go. I mean, I talked to blackmail photographers 586 00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 10: and other people that generally wouldn't give interviews. And I 587 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:52,960 Speaker 10: couldn't get the book published in York City where I live. 588 00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 10: I live in the mecca of publishing, about four blocks 589 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 10: away from Times Square. I live in the heart of 590 00:30:57,280 --> 00:30:59,960 Speaker 10: the insanity. But I could not get the book published here. 591 00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 10: So I finally got published by a small press on 592 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 10: the West Coast in two thousand and nine two thousand 593 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:12,040 Speaker 10: and ten, And in the interim I had become an 594 00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 10: activist regarding anti child trafficking. I've spoken at a lot 595 00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:21,840 Speaker 10: of conferences. The National Saran Sexual Exploitation has an international 596 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 10: summit every year, and I've spoken at three of those, 597 00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:27,480 Speaker 10: and I've spoken at a lot of conference. I've really 598 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:33,600 Speaker 10: got involved in this particular subject. And then I was 599 00:31:33,720 --> 00:31:39,120 Speaker 10: reading about someone named Jeffrey Epstein in twenty eleven, and 600 00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:44,200 Speaker 10: he seemed to have an insatiable appetite to molest underage girls. 601 00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:50,320 Speaker 10: But then I also saw that a grand jury had 602 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 10: said that he hadn't blessed a single child, and that 603 00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:56,880 Speaker 10: was the exact same thing with the book that I wrote. 604 00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:59,440 Speaker 10: There were two very corrupt grand juries that said not 605 00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:02,640 Speaker 10: a single tan was molested, like the grand jury that 606 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 10: looked into Jeffrey Epstein said that not a single child 607 00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,640 Speaker 10: was molested. And I don't know if your audience is 608 00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:12,520 Speaker 10: familiar with how grand jury's work, but a special prosecutors 609 00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:15,920 Speaker 10: chosen to oversee a grand jury, and grandeurs are just 610 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:18,320 Speaker 10: citizens that have shown up for jury duty, have been 611 00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 10: found to a grand jury, and the special prosecutor is 612 00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:25,400 Speaker 10: solely responsible for calling the witnesses and showing the grandeurs 613 00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 10: exhibits and of evidence. And there was a New York 614 00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:34,240 Speaker 10: Supreme Court judge that said grandeurs have so much or 615 00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:38,880 Speaker 10: special prosecutors have grandeur. Special prosecutors have so much power 616 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:41,680 Speaker 10: over grandeurs that they could get them to indict a 617 00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:45,800 Speaker 10: ham sandwich. So I saw that a ham sandwich was 618 00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:49,520 Speaker 10: indicted in Florida, and then I went down there and 619 00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:51,840 Speaker 10: ultimately went down there in twenty twelve. 620 00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 2: And so before the infamous influencer Binder moment from Pan 621 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 2: Bondy where they claimed, oh, this is the Epstein Files, 622 00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:04,280 Speaker 2: Phase one, and they claimed to be releasing all of 623 00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:08,680 Speaker 2: this new information you actually had published even more of 624 00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:11,600 Speaker 2: that information. You were the first person to put out 625 00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 2: the Epstein Black Book. In fact, I think it's fair 626 00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:17,320 Speaker 2: to say that you are the person journalists or non journalist, 627 00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:20,720 Speaker 2: government agency, or anyone on the planet who is exposed 628 00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:24,440 Speaker 2: the most information about Jeffrey Epstein. So can you take 629 00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 2: us back and talk to us about his black Book, 630 00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:31,680 Speaker 2: what it contained, and what you take to be the 631 00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:35,040 Speaker 2: import of that and what it exposes about the way 632 00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:36,440 Speaker 2: that he operated. 633 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:40,640 Speaker 10: Well, actually, I was the first guy to publish the 634 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 10: flight logs too, And when I was in Florida twenty 635 00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:50,479 Speaker 10: twelve investigating this, I do my thing. I was knocking 636 00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:54,480 Speaker 10: on doors, talking to people, making calls, and then I 637 00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:57,360 Speaker 10: had a fratuitous experience where I was able to acquire 638 00:33:57,400 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 10: the Black Book. And how the Black Book came into 639 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:06,840 Speaker 10: being as far as me being able to access. 640 00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:09,160 Speaker 7: It, Alfredo Rodriguez, Jeffrey. 641 00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:13,239 Speaker 10: Epstein's house manager, stole it and he was trying to 642 00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:16,160 Speaker 10: sell it to one of the attorneys that were representing 643 00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:18,480 Speaker 10: Epstein victims, and he was trying to sell it for 644 00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:21,760 Speaker 10: fifty thousand dollars and he called it the Grail. 645 00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 7: And the attorney called the FBI. 646 00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:29,400 Speaker 10: The FBI did a sting and then attorneys for ultimately 647 00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:32,040 Speaker 10: got the Black or attorneys for the victimsulton he got 648 00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:34,360 Speaker 10: the Black Book, and that's how I got it. But 649 00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:37,080 Speaker 10: I can remember the day that I got it. I 650 00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:41,680 Speaker 10: was staying near Naples and most of my beat at 651 00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:44,640 Speaker 10: that point was Fort lauerd Do Miami. So I woke 652 00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:48,520 Speaker 10: up early early one morning. Lawyers like generally like to 653 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:53,480 Speaker 10: have meetings early in the morning, so I wasn't on 654 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:56,200 Speaker 10: too much sleep, and I drove there and then he 655 00:34:56,280 --> 00:35:00,120 Speaker 10: handed me the Black Book, and I just went like oh. 656 00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:04,759 Speaker 10: And then I went to a Dunkin Donuts and had 657 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:06,880 Speaker 10: a couple of cups of coffee and looked through it 658 00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:12,440 Speaker 10: all and I was really stunned. But what was really 659 00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:15,799 Speaker 10: edifying to me, and I think that this is I 660 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:18,840 Speaker 10: might have been the first journalist to know this is 661 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:22,640 Speaker 10: there's well over a hundred victims in the Black Book, 662 00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:26,319 Speaker 10: well over one hundred victims. And I started calling them 663 00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:29,160 Speaker 10: and most of them did not want to talk to me, 664 00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:34,200 Speaker 10: which I understand. I've taken on this topic before and 665 00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:36,279 Speaker 10: a lot of victims just don't want to talk because 666 00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:39,319 Speaker 10: they've been so badly burned. But I did talk to 667 00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:42,360 Speaker 10: a few of them, and they talked about being flown around, 668 00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:46,080 Speaker 10: and they talked about an island. And at that point 669 00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:50,760 Speaker 10: I realized that Epstein was writing a nationwide pedophone network 670 00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:53,480 Speaker 10: and that he had an island where he would fly girls. 671 00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:57,400 Speaker 10: And I came back to New York City in twenty twelve, 672 00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:02,240 Speaker 10: and again editors and publishers really weren't enthusiastic about that information. 673 00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:06,360 Speaker 3: And in your experience, I mean there's that famous video 674 00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:08,960 Speaker 3: I think that Project Baritos got of Amy Roeboch back 675 00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:10,680 Speaker 3: in the day saying they killed her. 676 00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:11,600 Speaker 4: Her Epstein story. 677 00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:12,439 Speaker 7: She had it all. 678 00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 3: In your experience, Nick, why what obstacles have you noticed? 679 00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:20,799 Speaker 3: I mean, everyone has a million theories on this, but 680 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:23,360 Speaker 3: what do people tell you? What did people tell you 681 00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:25,439 Speaker 3: back then when you were trying to get this information out? 682 00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:32,600 Speaker 10: They provided a number of disingenuous responses, like it was 683 00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:33,240 Speaker 10: too old. 684 00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:40,240 Speaker 7: I mean one editor told me it was too old. 685 00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:43,360 Speaker 7: Like a month later they published an article on the 686 00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:44,439 Speaker 7: Revolutionary War. 687 00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:49,520 Speaker 10: So obviously, but they just didn't want to touch it. 688 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:53,799 Speaker 10: It was radioactive, and because I was the fond head 689 00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:57,799 Speaker 10: of it, they looked upon me as radioactive. And if 690 00:36:57,840 --> 00:37:02,360 Speaker 10: you look at how the media has covered Ebstein. They've 691 00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:06,320 Speaker 10: been pretty good at the ing upsillacious dirt on Jeffrey 692 00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:09,120 Speaker 10: Epstein and as co conspirators. But I'm not aware of 693 00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:12,840 Speaker 10: one major media outlet that is called for justice because 694 00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 10: so many little girls were molested by the machine that 695 00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:21,120 Speaker 10: Jeffrey Epstein had Glenn Maxwell built. 696 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:24,520 Speaker 7: And why don't we have outrage in the media. 697 00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:27,320 Speaker 10: I mean, why don't we have people in the media 698 00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:30,279 Speaker 10: demanding that there'd be a congressional investigation. 699 00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:33,000 Speaker 7: I just think that that's bizarre. 700 00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:37,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, let's put a seven up on the screen. This 701 00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:41,920 Speaker 2: is excuse me. With regard to this video that was released. 702 00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:45,160 Speaker 2: You know, when the Department of Justice under Trump puts 703 00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:47,520 Speaker 2: out this two page memo saying nothing to see here, 704 00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:51,759 Speaker 2: case closed, Jeffrey Epstein killed himself, and they put out 705 00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:56,400 Speaker 2: this video that purported to show Jeffrey Epstein's cell that 706 00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:59,759 Speaker 2: they claimed was completely unaltered. Well, it turned out there 707 00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:02,240 Speaker 2: was at least one minute that was missing from the video. 708 00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:04,680 Speaker 2: Pam Bondi gave an explanation of oh, well, it's just 709 00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:08,479 Speaker 2: like that, it always resets. At that time, CBS dug 710 00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:11,440 Speaker 2: in and they found a number of instances where the 711 00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:14,319 Speaker 2: video appeared to have been altered and edited, and they 712 00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:17,360 Speaker 2: also had a source that told them that's not true, 713 00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:20,719 Speaker 2: that there was this minute originally missing, you know, and 714 00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:23,640 Speaker 2: that there's some weird reset every night that leads to 715 00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:28,520 Speaker 2: this minute being missing. So curious your reflections on the 716 00:38:28,560 --> 00:38:33,440 Speaker 2: way that this Trump administration has behaved, and you know 717 00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:37,880 Speaker 2: what you make of the the extraordinary moves of Oh, 718 00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:40,920 Speaker 2: we're going to release the files, and here's these binders 719 00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:43,640 Speaker 2: that expose nothing new, and the client list is on 720 00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:47,000 Speaker 2: our desk. Pam Bondi says, we're reviewing hundreds of thousands 721 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:50,239 Speaker 2: of hours of footage and that's why it's taking so long. 722 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:52,799 Speaker 2: To all of a sudden, there's nothing to see here. 723 00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:55,319 Speaker 2: We're closing the case. Here's a video. Everyone shut up. 724 00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:58,239 Speaker 2: And now Trump is saying, well, there are files, and 725 00:38:58,280 --> 00:38:59,839 Speaker 2: my name may be in them, but it was put 726 00:38:59,880 --> 00:39:02,960 Speaker 2: in them by you know, Hillary Clinton, or Brennan or 727 00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:06,120 Speaker 2: Komy or some other of my adversaries. How are you 728 00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:07,040 Speaker 2: making sense of all of this? 729 00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:10,799 Speaker 10: Well, let me address the prison. The Bureau of Prisons 730 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:15,239 Speaker 10: took an unbelievable amount of heat. In twenty nineteen one, 731 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:19,560 Speaker 10: Jeffrey Epstein apparently killed himself, and if. 732 00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:20,880 Speaker 7: The Bureau of Prisons could. 733 00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:25,399 Speaker 10: Have exonerated themselves with any kind of cogent footage, they 734 00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:28,200 Speaker 10: would have done it in a heartbeat, but they didn't. 735 00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:33,799 Speaker 10: And then all of a sudden, this footage just magically appears. 736 00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:36,399 Speaker 7: And what's interesting is. 737 00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:40,960 Speaker 10: Dan Bongino, the number two guy at the FBI, had 738 00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:46,560 Speaker 10: a podcast where he was continually questioning Epstein's whether Epstein 739 00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:50,399 Speaker 10: committed suicide or whether he was murdered, and then he 740 00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:55,800 Speaker 10: gets behind this ridiculous footage, I mean, I mean really 741 00:39:55,920 --> 00:40:01,600 Speaker 10: really ridiculous footage and thinks, yeah, Jeffery Epstein murdered himself. 742 00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:06,800 Speaker 7: I've got no doubts now. It's amazing what happens. 743 00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:08,279 Speaker 10: To people once they get a little power and they 744 00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:12,200 Speaker 10: get into office. And I don't know why he's done 745 00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:15,600 Speaker 10: a one eighty on that. There's various explanations for it, 746 00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:18,640 Speaker 10: but he's definitely done a one eighty. And with the 747 00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:22,960 Speaker 10: Bondie Tobacco, I can kind of walk you through it. 748 00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:27,880 Speaker 10: On February twenty six, Bondi was on Fox and she said. 749 00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:30,280 Speaker 7: I'm going to release the Epstein files. 750 00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:34,719 Speaker 10: Everything that you will ever need to know will be released. 751 00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:40,600 Speaker 10: And then a few days later, she released some files 752 00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:45,120 Speaker 10: and it was essentially a nothing sandwich. And then she 753 00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:50,480 Speaker 10: declared that she'd been bamboozled by the FBI's New York 754 00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:51,320 Speaker 10: Field office. 755 00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:54,279 Speaker 5: I forgot about that part. Yeah, so we can. 756 00:40:55,960 --> 00:40:58,280 Speaker 10: We can say that she was either lying on national 757 00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:02,560 Speaker 10: television or she was in net And I'm a charitable person, 758 00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:05,000 Speaker 10: so I'll just call her a nept at least least 759 00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:08,040 Speaker 10: at this point, That's what I was thinking. And then 760 00:41:08,760 --> 00:41:12,359 Speaker 10: she further tarnished her credibility by saying that yes, there 761 00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:16,000 Speaker 10: was tens of thousands of videos of Epstein with children, 762 00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:20,800 Speaker 10: are child born, there are hundreds of victims. But then 763 00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:25,640 Speaker 10: she said, and this. 764 00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:27,160 Speaker 7: Kind of amazes me. 765 00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:31,560 Speaker 10: She said that the FBI was looking through it for 766 00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:36,720 Speaker 10: the first time. And when Epstein got arrested in July 767 00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:43,480 Speaker 10: of twenty nineteen, the very next morning, the very next morning, 768 00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:45,920 Speaker 10: the FBI drove through a safe. Now safe was the 769 00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:50,920 Speaker 10: size of a closet, and his safe held many many discs. 770 00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:54,120 Speaker 10: There was a lot of child abuse material, and Business 771 00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:57,080 Speaker 10: Insider report New York Times reporter that there was a 772 00:41:57,080 --> 00:42:00,200 Speaker 10: lot of disks and a lot of child abuse material, 773 00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:05,880 Speaker 10: and Business Insider reported that there were two that there 774 00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:10,799 Speaker 10: were hard drives too, So the FBI and whatever dark, 775 00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:13,880 Speaker 10: malignant corner of the government that deploys people like Epstein, 776 00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:17,840 Speaker 10: they were looking at that stuff that day. So for 777 00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:22,160 Speaker 10: BONDI to come out and say that the Epstein safe 778 00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:23,880 Speaker 10: was opened up and it hadn't been looked at for 779 00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:27,520 Speaker 10: six years, that was kind of her crescendo of mendacity. 780 00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:31,840 Speaker 7: I mean, you really. 781 00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:36,200 Speaker 10: I mean, because I followed this case so closely, I've 782 00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:38,879 Speaker 10: been able to kind of see these lies in real time. 783 00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:42,839 Speaker 10: But yeah, she really got herself into a hole. And uh, 784 00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:47,520 Speaker 10: and then the Trump administration continued to get itself in 785 00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:51,080 Speaker 10: a hole when they said it was a conspiracy by 786 00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:56,000 Speaker 10: the Democrats, Well what happened was it was actually a 787 00:42:56,000 --> 00:43:00,960 Speaker 10: conspiracy started by the Republicans. Jeff Every Epstein got his 788 00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:04,560 Speaker 10: sweetheart deal in two thousand and seven, and he got 789 00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:06,920 Speaker 10: it via the Department of Justice. 790 00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:08,400 Speaker 7: The Southern District, Florida. 791 00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:14,279 Speaker 10: Alexander Acosta was the US attorney and he was going 792 00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:17,680 Speaker 10: to panel like Grand Jurie to look into the allegations 793 00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:20,000 Speaker 10: about Jeffrey Epstein. And actually they had a list of 794 00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:23,800 Speaker 10: thirty four victims. I had that list, but they knew 795 00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:30,000 Speaker 10: of forty underage victims, and what happened there was a 796 00:43:30,080 --> 00:43:34,080 Speaker 10: major travesty of justice. So Alexander Acosta vowed that he 797 00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:39,759 Speaker 10: was going to exact justice, and then what happened. The 798 00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:43,080 Speaker 10: Department of Justice then went radio silent, and then they 799 00:43:43,080 --> 00:43:48,359 Speaker 10: started negotiating with Epstein's attorneys in clandestinely. 800 00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:51,240 Speaker 7: I have some of their emails, and then. 801 00:43:51,120 --> 00:43:54,960 Speaker 10: They cooked up a deal that was so dirty they 802 00:43:54,960 --> 00:43:57,200 Speaker 10: didn't want anybody to look at it. And I've got 803 00:43:57,200 --> 00:44:02,040 Speaker 10: an email between Epstein lawyer Jay Lefgowitz and US Assistant 804 00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:06,839 Speaker 10: US Attorney Emery Villafana, where Villafana says, there's one magistrate 805 00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:10,319 Speaker 10: that will sign off on this, and we have to 806 00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:11,400 Speaker 10: get to them on Monday. 807 00:44:11,560 --> 00:44:14,719 Speaker 7: So a magistrate is just. 808 00:44:15,239 --> 00:44:17,640 Speaker 10: And the judiciary is one notch below a judge, and 809 00:44:17,680 --> 00:44:20,240 Speaker 10: he can serve the functions of a judge. So between 810 00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:23,719 Speaker 10: the judges and the magistrates, they found one magistrate that 811 00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:26,279 Speaker 10: would sign off on it, and then they sealed it 812 00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:29,200 Speaker 10: so no one could take a look at it. And 813 00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:34,760 Speaker 10: attorneys representing Epstein victims and Palm Beach Post appealed the ceiling, 814 00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:41,120 Speaker 10: and Judge Kenneth Meyra of Florida said that the document 815 00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:44,480 Speaker 10: should be unsealed, and then the Department of Justice appealed that, 816 00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:49,080 Speaker 10: and then finally the Eleventh Circuit said, okay, let's unseal it. 817 00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:59,120 Speaker 10: And what was unsealed was beyond egregious. That document gave. 818 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:03,400 Speaker 10: We talked about Epstein' sweetheart deal, but actually that document 819 00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:08,600 Speaker 10: gave blanket immunity to all of his co conspirators, all 820 00:45:08,680 --> 00:45:14,440 Speaker 10: of them. And it also trampled on the Victim Crimes 821 00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:19,520 Speaker 10: Rights Act, which is it's a federal law and if 822 00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:21,640 Speaker 10: you're a victim of a crime, you have to be 823 00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:24,640 Speaker 10: apprized of the adjudication of your perpetrator and you get 824 00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:29,120 Speaker 10: to confront your perpetrator. And that was denied all the victims, 825 00:45:30,120 --> 00:45:32,440 Speaker 10: and that's another reason why they wanted to see And 826 00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:35,120 Speaker 10: then to make sure that that didn't come back to 827 00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:38,880 Speaker 10: bite them, they had the state put Epstein in a 828 00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:41,440 Speaker 10: county jail for eighteen months and he did thirteen, but 829 00:45:41,480 --> 00:45:44,520 Speaker 10: he was allowed to go out during the day and 830 00:45:44,800 --> 00:45:49,640 Speaker 10: most children. So that was all done under the Bush administration. 831 00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:56,200 Speaker 10: When Trump says it's a democratic conspiracy, he seems to 832 00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:59,520 Speaker 10: have freeend who gave Jeffrey Ebstein the sweetheart deal. 833 00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:03,800 Speaker 4: So on that note, let's roll a. 834 00:46:04,480 --> 00:46:07,279 Speaker 3: This is a point that was raised about Trump and 835 00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:09,440 Speaker 3: Epstein on CNN. 836 00:46:09,520 --> 00:46:10,840 Speaker 4: Want to get your reaction to this. 837 00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:15,600 Speaker 11: Nick research shows from investigative reporting from Miami Herald that 838 00:46:15,719 --> 00:46:18,880 Speaker 11: Jeffrey Epstein was actually still on the mar A Lago 839 00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:23,080 Speaker 11: membership logs up to two thousand and seven. Okay, so 840 00:46:24,040 --> 00:46:26,719 Speaker 11: Trump was still getting money from Jeffrey Epstein up to 841 00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:29,560 Speaker 11: two thousand and seven. He was still Jeffrey Epstein's was 842 00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:33,040 Speaker 11: still paying for his membership at mar A Lago, according 843 00:46:33,040 --> 00:46:35,799 Speaker 11: to Miami Herald. And that, of course is a year 844 00:46:36,040 --> 00:46:40,240 Speaker 11: after Jeffrey Epstein's arrest in Florida in two thousand and six. 845 00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:42,120 Speaker 11: Despite so if. 846 00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:44,200 Speaker 12: He kicked him out for being a creep, yes, that 847 00:46:44,239 --> 00:46:46,600 Speaker 12: would have even been a year after that would have 848 00:46:46,640 --> 00:46:49,240 Speaker 12: been established through a legal suit. 849 00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:49,800 Speaker 5: Correct. 850 00:46:50,320 --> 00:46:54,560 Speaker 3: And so Nick, just yesterday, Trump seemingly confirmed that Jeffrey Epstein, 851 00:46:54,719 --> 00:46:59,520 Speaker 3: in Trump's words, quote unquote, stole Virginia Jeffrey from him at. 852 00:46:59,360 --> 00:46:59,920 Speaker 4: Mar A Lago. 853 00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:03,640 Speaker 3: That the contingent seemed to be that Epstein was kicked 854 00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:08,240 Speaker 3: out because he had been poaching Trump's employees like Virginia 855 00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:12,320 Speaker 3: Jeiffrey obviously a very young woman from mar A Lago. 856 00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:18,160 Speaker 3: What more should people know about that type of connection 857 00:47:18,200 --> 00:47:19,240 Speaker 3: between Trump and Epstein. 858 00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:24,560 Speaker 10: There's two reasons why Jeffrey Epstein Donald Trump got divorced. 859 00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:30,239 Speaker 10: One is that Trump Epstein was poaching young girls at 860 00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:31,760 Speaker 10: Marri Lago or one girl. 861 00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:34,759 Speaker 7: And then the other one is the fail is the 862 00:47:34,760 --> 00:47:35,640 Speaker 7: real estate deal. 863 00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:38,040 Speaker 10: I mean a lot of people seem to put their 864 00:47:38,120 --> 00:47:40,880 Speaker 10: chips on the real estate deal instead of mar A Lago. 865 00:47:41,719 --> 00:47:48,640 Speaker 10: Virginia grew free was I knew Virginia and we become friends. 866 00:47:49,960 --> 00:47:53,600 Speaker 10: And that's a very sad story. But people that are 867 00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:58,400 Speaker 10: sexually trafficked as children, they're suicide RATEUS three times higher 868 00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:03,680 Speaker 10: than the general population. But Virginia was working at Marilanga. 869 00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:06,319 Speaker 10: She was fifteen years old and she was working in 870 00:48:06,360 --> 00:48:09,960 Speaker 10: the spot. Her goal was to be a therapeutic massus 871 00:48:10,640 --> 00:48:14,000 Speaker 10: and that's where Maxwell got her. So it wasn't Epstein 872 00:48:14,320 --> 00:48:21,400 Speaker 10: that was the one who conscripted Virginia, it was actually Maxwell. 873 00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:25,680 Speaker 2: What else do we know about the Trump Epstein relationship 874 00:48:25,719 --> 00:48:28,080 Speaker 2: and how close it was? Let me actually play for you. 875 00:48:28,160 --> 00:48:31,960 Speaker 2: I think this is a six guys. Michael Wolfe is 876 00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:36,080 Speaker 2: one of the few journalists who spent a lot of 877 00:48:36,080 --> 00:48:39,320 Speaker 2: time with Epstein. He's got a lot of recordings of Epstein. 878 00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:42,520 Speaker 2: He makes a lot of claims about, you know, their relationships. 879 00:48:42,640 --> 00:48:44,720 Speaker 2: Let me play a little bit of what he said 880 00:48:45,160 --> 00:48:48,920 Speaker 2: about these photos that he says he was shown of 881 00:48:49,200 --> 00:48:51,640 Speaker 2: Donald Trump with young girls. 882 00:48:51,719 --> 00:48:52,880 Speaker 5: Let's go ahead and take a listen to this. 883 00:48:53,560 --> 00:49:00,360 Speaker 9: At one point after Trump had been elected, and I 884 00:49:00,480 --> 00:49:03,280 Speaker 9: was sitting talking to Epstein, and he said, wait a minute, 885 00:49:03,760 --> 00:49:06,640 Speaker 9: I gotta show you something. And then he went into 886 00:49:06,680 --> 00:49:11,920 Speaker 9: his safe and he came out with with with with photographs. 887 00:49:11,920 --> 00:49:15,840 Speaker 9: They were they were polaroids, I think, and and he 888 00:49:15,920 --> 00:49:19,239 Speaker 9: kind of kind of they were kind of spread them 889 00:49:19,239 --> 00:49:23,200 Speaker 9: out like playing cards, and it was Trump. I mean 890 00:49:23,239 --> 00:49:25,080 Speaker 9: I think there were a dozen of them, and and 891 00:49:25,120 --> 00:49:30,600 Speaker 9: it was Trump with girls of an uncertain age at 892 00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:35,080 Speaker 9: Epstein's Palm Beach house where all of the things that 893 00:49:35,120 --> 00:49:38,640 Speaker 9: he would ultimately be accused of took place. And I 894 00:49:38,680 --> 00:49:42,080 Speaker 9: remember very vividly three of them. There are two in 895 00:49:42,120 --> 00:49:46,960 Speaker 9: which Trump is uh, the girls topless, girls are sitting 896 00:49:47,120 --> 00:49:51,040 Speaker 9: on Trump's lap, and then a third in which he 897 00:49:51,120 --> 00:49:55,160 Speaker 9: has a a stain on the front of his pants 898 00:49:55,800 --> 00:49:59,319 Speaker 9: and the girls are kind of kind of pointing at it, 899 00:49:59,360 --> 00:50:02,440 Speaker 9: sort of been over laughing you know, covering you know, 900 00:50:02,520 --> 00:50:08,160 Speaker 9: you know, covering the exactly exactly and pointing three or 901 00:50:08,200 --> 00:50:11,560 Speaker 9: four girls, and those are the ones I specifically remember. 902 00:50:12,239 --> 00:50:15,040 Speaker 9: It's certainly not unlikely that they were in the safe 903 00:50:15,120 --> 00:50:18,600 Speaker 9: when the FBI came in after his arrests and took 904 00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:21,120 Speaker 9: everything from from the house. 905 00:50:21,719 --> 00:50:26,000 Speaker 2: How much credence do you give to those allegations? And 906 00:50:26,040 --> 00:50:28,239 Speaker 2: what can we say for sure about the nature of 907 00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:29,960 Speaker 2: the relationship between Trump and Epstein. 908 00:50:31,360 --> 00:50:34,160 Speaker 10: Trump and Epstein were best of friends. They did have 909 00:50:34,239 --> 00:50:37,359 Speaker 10: that falling out. We don't know exactly why they had 910 00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:40,839 Speaker 10: the falling out. There's there's conflicting stories about that. 911 00:50:41,719 --> 00:50:43,640 Speaker 7: But what I know that Wolf. 912 00:50:43,440 --> 00:50:47,040 Speaker 10: Has said that before about the pictures of tompless girls 913 00:50:47,080 --> 00:50:53,080 Speaker 10: on Donald Trump's lap, and I don't know what to 914 00:50:53,080 --> 00:50:55,120 Speaker 10: make of that. I mean, he seems like an honest person. 915 00:50:55,640 --> 00:51:01,759 Speaker 10: So and what's really troubling to me is that the 916 00:51:01,840 --> 00:51:05,319 Speaker 10: FBI and Department of Justice know exactly what was taken 917 00:51:05,360 --> 00:51:07,239 Speaker 10: out of that safe, because they took a all of 918 00:51:07,320 --> 00:51:11,200 Speaker 10: the safe. And there was that crazy document that they 919 00:51:11,239 --> 00:51:15,719 Speaker 10: came out with on July sixth that said there was 920 00:51:15,719 --> 00:51:17,600 Speaker 10: a couple of things I agreed with that there were 921 00:51:17,719 --> 00:51:25,320 Speaker 10: over three hundred gigabytes of child exploitation material and that 922 00:51:25,600 --> 00:51:27,960 Speaker 10: there were over a thousand victims. I do agree with 923 00:51:28,000 --> 00:51:31,400 Speaker 10: those two things. I agree that Jeffrey Epstein had a 924 00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:34,799 Speaker 10: huge cash of child abuse material, and I agree that 925 00:51:34,840 --> 00:51:36,680 Speaker 10: there are well over a thousand victims. 926 00:51:37,200 --> 00:51:41,799 Speaker 7: But then that strange document and no one signed it. 927 00:51:41,800 --> 00:51:44,800 Speaker 10: It had the logo of the Department of Justice and FBI, 928 00:51:45,080 --> 00:51:48,080 Speaker 10: but no one was going to take a fall for 929 00:51:48,160 --> 00:51:51,080 Speaker 10: that document, so nobody signed it. But then it said 930 00:51:51,120 --> 00:51:56,759 Speaker 10: that Donald or that Jeffrey Epstein acted alone by himself, 931 00:51:57,160 --> 00:52:00,680 Speaker 10: that he didn't pander girls. I mean, there's so much 932 00:52:00,719 --> 00:52:05,040 Speaker 10: evidence about perpetrators and pimps and in the Epstein network 933 00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:09,960 Speaker 10: that it's an overkill actually, and that he didn't blackmail anyone. 934 00:52:10,640 --> 00:52:18,200 Speaker 10: So that document was really horrible, because the best thing 935 00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:23,040 Speaker 10: that you can say to someone who's been sexually abused 936 00:52:23,040 --> 00:52:25,680 Speaker 10: as a child or someone who's been sexually assaulted is 937 00:52:26,200 --> 00:52:26,840 Speaker 10: I believe you. 938 00:52:28,440 --> 00:52:30,839 Speaker 7: The worst thing that you can say. 939 00:52:31,000 --> 00:52:35,800 Speaker 10: To someone that's been trafficked as a child or sexually 940 00:52:35,800 --> 00:52:36,719 Speaker 10: assault is I. 941 00:52:36,640 --> 00:52:37,400 Speaker 7: Don't believe you. 942 00:52:38,280 --> 00:52:42,520 Speaker 10: And the Trump administration was sent with that document. The 943 00:52:42,560 --> 00:52:46,080 Speaker 10: Trump administration was saying, I don't believe you. Too, hundreds 944 00:52:46,120 --> 00:52:49,719 Speaker 10: of victims, and that's really troubling. 945 00:52:50,040 --> 00:52:51,320 Speaker 7: That's really troubling. 946 00:52:51,719 --> 00:52:54,400 Speaker 3: So I have a sort of strange question Nick, and 947 00:52:54,560 --> 00:52:56,760 Speaker 3: credit to Brionn android Gray who did a good interview 948 00:52:56,760 --> 00:53:00,080 Speaker 3: of Whitney Web the other day. But they mentioned and 949 00:53:00,160 --> 00:53:03,280 Speaker 3: he mentioned something quite interesting, which is around the time 950 00:53:03,760 --> 00:53:09,760 Speaker 3: that Hulk Hogan, the recently deceased Haul Hogan, started suing 951 00:53:09,960 --> 00:53:14,319 Speaker 3: Gawker for the sex tape, which we now know was 952 00:53:14,400 --> 00:53:17,719 Speaker 3: bankrolled by Peter Teal. That laws he was bankrolled by 953 00:53:17,760 --> 00:53:20,960 Speaker 3: Peter Teal who had been outed by Gawker. 954 00:53:21,280 --> 00:53:22,480 Speaker 4: That's actually around. 955 00:53:22,239 --> 00:53:26,480 Speaker 3: The time that your little Black Book story was published 956 00:53:26,680 --> 00:53:31,960 Speaker 3: by Gawker, And so the connection there is somewhat interesting. 957 00:53:32,040 --> 00:53:34,000 Speaker 3: I wanted to get There are all kinds of connections 958 00:53:34,040 --> 00:53:36,160 Speaker 3: that could be absolutely nothing in this case, or could 959 00:53:36,200 --> 00:53:40,080 Speaker 3: be compelling. But what is your take on since you're 960 00:53:40,120 --> 00:53:42,919 Speaker 3: the one who published the story, have you ever heard 961 00:53:42,960 --> 00:53:45,600 Speaker 3: anything since that there might be that Teal may have 962 00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:48,160 Speaker 3: been irked about that reporting. 963 00:53:48,840 --> 00:53:55,360 Speaker 10: No, Teal, who's a natural born fascist, was irked about 964 00:53:55,680 --> 00:54:00,160 Speaker 10: Gawker outing him. He had initiated that lawsuit before or 965 00:54:00,880 --> 00:54:04,000 Speaker 10: I wrote, okay, my article on Blocker and release the 966 00:54:04,000 --> 00:54:04,520 Speaker 10: Black Book. 967 00:54:04,600 --> 00:54:07,239 Speaker 7: So I got it there. There isn't a correlation there. 968 00:54:07,360 --> 00:54:08,360 Speaker 4: Okay, that's good to know. 969 00:54:09,120 --> 00:54:11,719 Speaker 2: I've one last question for you, which is, you know 970 00:54:11,800 --> 00:54:14,720 Speaker 2: you've you've studied not only you know as a journalist, 971 00:54:14,760 --> 00:54:18,440 Speaker 2: not only have you studied this case and this pedophile ring, 972 00:54:18,480 --> 00:54:22,440 Speaker 2: which obviously you know been many elites in America and 973 00:54:22,480 --> 00:54:26,520 Speaker 2: around the world. You've studied the history of other uh 974 00:54:27,560 --> 00:54:31,719 Speaker 2: pedophile rings of blackmail in the country. And I wonder 975 00:54:31,800 --> 00:54:34,319 Speaker 2: what you've been able to dig up or ascertain with 976 00:54:34,440 --> 00:54:39,040 Speaker 2: regard to potential intelligence ties. And sometimes you know that 977 00:54:39,239 --> 00:54:42,480 Speaker 2: aspect of this is framed as this like really wild conspiracy, 978 00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:44,760 Speaker 2: which is why I think your work is so important 979 00:54:45,160 --> 00:54:48,799 Speaker 2: exposing that, you know, Compromont is actually part of the 980 00:54:48,840 --> 00:54:53,759 Speaker 2: course for the CIA for massade for six and it 981 00:54:53,800 --> 00:54:57,360 Speaker 2: would not be some wild insane thing to imagine that 982 00:54:57,440 --> 00:55:00,760 Speaker 2: if he does have this compromising material on powerful people, 983 00:55:00,960 --> 00:55:03,799 Speaker 2: that there would be numerous intel agencies who would be 984 00:55:03,920 --> 00:55:05,680 Speaker 2: very interested in leveraging that. 985 00:55:07,600 --> 00:55:10,239 Speaker 10: People ask me this all the time, and they say, what, 986 00:55:10,360 --> 00:55:15,040 Speaker 10: Jeffrey Epstein is working with the Massad? And I say, 987 00:55:15,160 --> 00:55:18,800 Speaker 10: Jeffrey Epstein very well might have been working with the Massad, 988 00:55:19,400 --> 00:55:24,560 Speaker 10: But I believe that there's no way the CIA is 989 00:55:24,600 --> 00:55:28,760 Speaker 10: going to let the Masad compromise American politicians on American 990 00:55:28,800 --> 00:55:30,799 Speaker 10: soil without getting a cut of that intelligence. 991 00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:32,320 Speaker 7: I just don't think it's going to happen. 992 00:55:33,080 --> 00:55:34,960 Speaker 10: I think the dark side of the CIA and the 993 00:55:35,000 --> 00:55:36,680 Speaker 10: dark side of the Massade are kind of like the 994 00:55:36,719 --> 00:55:39,320 Speaker 10: Gambino family and the gen of Azy crime family. 995 00:55:39,760 --> 00:55:41,000 Speaker 7: They work together. 996 00:55:41,719 --> 00:55:43,960 Speaker 10: And I also wrote a book called Confessions of a 997 00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:46,920 Speaker 10: DC Man, The Politics of sex lives in Blackmail, and 998 00:55:46,920 --> 00:55:49,000 Speaker 10: I co authored it with Henry Vincent. And he ran 999 00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:52,520 Speaker 10: the largest gay escort service that's ever been uncovered. 1000 00:55:52,120 --> 00:55:53,439 Speaker 7: In DC and. 1001 00:55:55,200 --> 00:56:00,560 Speaker 10: CI assets were using his escorts to out closeted petitians 1002 00:56:00,600 --> 00:56:03,640 Speaker 10: and we name a number of them in the book. 1003 00:56:03,840 --> 00:56:10,920 Speaker 10: So blackmail or compromat is as old as our republic. 1004 00:56:11,800 --> 00:56:16,000 Speaker 10: There was a muckraking journalist that came across the story 1005 00:56:16,040 --> 00:56:19,760 Speaker 10: of Alexander Hamilton having an affair with a twenty married 1006 00:56:19,800 --> 00:56:23,319 Speaker 10: twenty three year old and her husband was blackmail and 1007 00:56:23,320 --> 00:56:24,880 Speaker 10: Alexander Hamilton, and then. 1008 00:56:24,880 --> 00:56:26,200 Speaker 7: The muckbreaker. 1009 00:56:27,120 --> 00:56:33,080 Speaker 10: Wrote a story about Hamilton's woes, and then and Jefferson 1010 00:56:33,200 --> 00:56:35,560 Speaker 10: and Hamilton had a lot of antipity towards each other 1011 00:56:35,760 --> 00:56:38,960 Speaker 10: and the muckbreaking journalists thought that Jefferson would give him 1012 00:56:38,960 --> 00:56:44,279 Speaker 10: an appointment in his administration because he helped Scully or 1013 00:56:44,360 --> 00:56:49,560 Speaker 10: Sally Hamilton's And what happened there was he did not 1014 00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:53,800 Speaker 10: Jefferson didn't let the guy in his administration, and then 1015 00:56:54,000 --> 00:56:57,439 Speaker 10: he wrote a book or article or some articles about 1016 00:56:57,480 --> 00:57:00,920 Speaker 10: Jefferson having sex with one of his slaves, Sally Hemings, 1017 00:57:01,000 --> 00:57:03,840 Speaker 10: which DNA has shown to be the case. 1018 00:57:03,920 --> 00:57:07,160 Speaker 7: So compromitt is as old as. 1019 00:57:07,040 --> 00:57:11,080 Speaker 10: Our republic, and there are a lot of our politicians 1020 00:57:11,520 --> 00:57:17,320 Speaker 10: that are compromised. Mike Johnson last week he adjourned to 1021 00:57:17,360 --> 00:57:22,600 Speaker 10: Congress early so it couldn't vote on investigating a child 1022 00:57:22,680 --> 00:57:27,240 Speaker 10: abuse network. I mean, what's that about. That's very strange. 1023 00:57:27,480 --> 00:57:31,960 Speaker 10: And he's got and I did some research into my 1024 00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:36,840 Speaker 10: wrote article about him. He's got this software called Covenant 1025 00:57:36,880 --> 00:57:40,120 Speaker 10: Eyes that he and his seventeen year old son have 1026 00:57:40,800 --> 00:57:46,560 Speaker 10: and it enables them to keep track of their pornography consumption, 1027 00:57:47,200 --> 00:57:53,080 Speaker 10: which I thought was very strange and extremely cringeworthy. So 1028 00:57:54,120 --> 00:57:59,400 Speaker 10: why is Mike Johnson holding this up? The decent thing 1029 00:57:59,560 --> 00:58:07,080 Speaker 10: to do would to investigate Jeffrey Epstein and the child molesters, 1030 00:58:07,200 --> 00:58:13,240 Speaker 10: But because blackmail is so integral through our system, and 1031 00:58:13,400 --> 00:58:15,600 Speaker 10: Johnson might even be buying my elder is someone who's 1032 00:58:15,640 --> 00:58:20,600 Speaker 10: blackmail is putting pressure on him. That's why our system 1033 00:58:20,680 --> 00:58:25,760 Speaker 10: is so dirty. And there's Republicans and Democrats that are compromised. 1034 00:58:25,800 --> 00:58:29,040 Speaker 7: It's they're both. I mean, this is a partisan effort. 1035 00:58:30,040 --> 00:58:31,520 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1036 00:58:31,560 --> 00:58:34,439 Speaker 2: Well, Nick, Brian, thank you so much, first of all 1037 00:58:34,440 --> 00:58:37,120 Speaker 2: for your work, and again everybody go to Epstein Justice 1038 00:58:37,120 --> 00:58:39,960 Speaker 2: dot com to support your work there, and thank you 1039 00:58:40,000 --> 00:58:42,640 Speaker 2: so much for joining us this morning. 1040 00:58:43,240 --> 00:58:43,520 Speaker 4: Thank you. 1041 00:58:43,560 --> 00:58:47,120 Speaker 10: Can I just add one thing, of course, the Centaters 1042 00:58:47,160 --> 00:58:53,000 Speaker 10: for Disease Control had did a study and found that 1043 00:58:53,280 --> 00:58:57,120 Speaker 10: twenty five percent of underage girls in America and five 1044 00:58:57,160 --> 00:59:00,880 Speaker 10: percent of underage boys in America have been molested. Now, 1045 00:59:00,920 --> 00:59:03,840 Speaker 10: people in the field think that that's slightly conservative for 1046 00:59:03,920 --> 00:59:06,360 Speaker 10: underage girls and very conservative for underage boys. 1047 00:59:06,360 --> 00:59:08,040 Speaker 7: But if you just go with the CDC. 1048 00:59:07,840 --> 00:59:11,160 Speaker 10: Numbers, you've got over fifty million Americans that have been 1049 00:59:11,640 --> 00:59:15,439 Speaker 10: molested when they were underage. And the Department of Health 1050 00:59:15,440 --> 00:59:18,160 Speaker 10: and Human Services commissioned a study that found that two 1051 00:59:18,280 --> 00:59:20,680 Speaker 10: hundred and forty thousand to three hundred and twenty five 1052 00:59:20,720 --> 00:59:24,600 Speaker 10: thousand women and children were sexually trafficked in the United 1053 00:59:24,600 --> 00:59:28,320 Speaker 10: States every year, So we're talking about millions of people. 1054 00:59:28,400 --> 00:59:32,440 Speaker 10: And according to the Federal Human Trafficking Report of twenty 1055 00:59:32,480 --> 00:59:34,960 Speaker 10: twenty three, the last one that we can have that 1056 00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:37,959 Speaker 10: we have access to, six hundred and sixty four people 1057 00:59:38,000 --> 00:59:41,240 Speaker 10: were charged with child trafficking in the United States. So 1058 00:59:41,400 --> 00:59:44,080 Speaker 10: if we go with the Department of Health and Human 1059 00:59:44,120 --> 00:59:49,160 Speaker 10: Services lowest number, two hundred and forty thousand, six hundred 1060 00:59:49,160 --> 00:59:51,760 Speaker 10: and sixty four people are being prosecuted. 1061 00:59:52,040 --> 00:59:54,680 Speaker 7: And that's one place where our society. 1062 00:59:54,400 --> 00:59:57,520 Speaker 10: Really really has to do a lot of work because 1063 00:59:58,440 --> 01:00:00,960 Speaker 10: only a fraction of one percent, and if we allow 1064 01:00:01,040 --> 01:00:04,080 Speaker 10: the Justice Department to be unresponsive to victims in the 1065 01:00:04,120 --> 01:00:07,600 Speaker 10: Epstein case of proven trafficking case, that sends a message 1066 01:00:07,600 --> 01:00:10,560 Speaker 10: to millions of victims in this country that they have 1067 01:00:10,800 --> 01:00:12,680 Speaker 10: no voice and no hope for justice. 1068 01:00:13,480 --> 01:00:15,560 Speaker 2: I think that's so important to underscore, and I think 1069 01:00:15,560 --> 01:00:18,400 Speaker 2: it's also a big part of why this case has 1070 01:00:18,400 --> 01:00:21,080 Speaker 2: been so important to so many people, and getting justice 1071 01:00:21,120 --> 01:00:22,680 Speaker 2: for these victims has been so important. 1072 01:00:23,320 --> 01:00:25,240 Speaker 4: That's right, Thank you Nick so much. 1073 01:00:25,680 --> 01:00:26,600 Speaker 7: Hey have a great day. 1074 01:00:29,960 --> 01:00:33,120 Speaker 2: So obviously, guys, we've been closely covering the famine and 1075 01:00:33,160 --> 01:00:36,840 Speaker 2: starvation that is unfolding at the hands of the Israelis 1076 01:00:36,880 --> 01:00:39,880 Speaker 2: in the Gaza strip and there's been an effort to 1077 01:00:39,960 --> 01:00:45,880 Speaker 2: erase those horrific conditions by Israel's defenders. We covered some 1078 01:00:45,960 --> 01:00:50,160 Speaker 2: of that yesterday, President himself though saying no, it's real, 1079 01:00:50,320 --> 01:00:51,520 Speaker 2: the hunger is real. 1080 01:00:51,560 --> 01:00:53,560 Speaker 5: Let's take a listen to that. 1081 01:00:53,760 --> 01:00:56,160 Speaker 13: First, lady you mentioned a couple of weeks ago, I 1082 01:00:56,440 --> 01:00:58,520 Speaker 13: roll in talk to about the poor in Ukraine and 1083 01:00:58,640 --> 01:01:02,400 Speaker 13: perhaps they fought evolution and thinking if you just dossed 1084 01:01:02,400 --> 01:01:04,840 Speaker 13: the crisis ignored or in the terrify. 1085 01:01:04,560 --> 01:01:08,240 Speaker 6: App thinks it's terrible and she sees to save pictures 1086 01:01:08,240 --> 01:01:11,360 Speaker 6: that you see and that we all see. And I 1087 01:01:11,360 --> 01:01:15,840 Speaker 6: think everybody, unless they're pretty cold hearted or worse than 1088 01:01:15,840 --> 01:01:19,400 Speaker 6: that nuts. There's nothing you can. 1089 01:01:19,320 --> 01:01:21,160 Speaker 14: Say other that it is terrible when you see the 1090 01:01:21,240 --> 01:01:24,280 Speaker 14: kids and those are kids, you know, whether they talk 1091 01:01:24,360 --> 01:01:29,600 Speaker 14: starvation or not, those are kids that are starving. That's 1092 01:01:30,320 --> 01:01:32,840 Speaker 14: I mean, they are starving and you see the mothers. 1093 01:01:32,880 --> 01:01:35,280 Speaker 14: They love them so much and it's just nothing they 1094 01:01:35,320 --> 01:01:36,280 Speaker 14: seem to be able to do. 1095 01:01:36,560 --> 01:01:37,760 Speaker 6: They got to get them food. 1096 01:01:38,200 --> 01:01:41,320 Speaker 2: So he acknowledges the starvation. Of course, the most critical 1097 01:01:41,360 --> 01:01:43,600 Speaker 2: part that's left out of that, Emily is the culpability 1098 01:01:43,760 --> 01:01:47,680 Speaker 2: which is both Israel and ours. And so you know, 1099 01:01:47,720 --> 01:01:50,160 Speaker 2: he claims he wants to get aid in. We also 1100 01:01:50,200 --> 01:01:53,680 Speaker 2: have reporting that he's done absolutely nothing to pressure ant 1101 01:01:53,800 --> 01:01:58,480 Speaker 2: Yahoo on any point, and indeed has told him numerous 1102 01:01:58,480 --> 01:02:01,920 Speaker 2: occasions do what you gotta do, and you know, has 1103 01:02:01,960 --> 01:02:06,200 Speaker 2: has backed this ethnic cleansing plan that is being implemented 1104 01:02:06,280 --> 01:02:09,520 Speaker 2: right now, of which the starvation is a key component. 1105 01:02:09,880 --> 01:02:11,960 Speaker 3: We had the Wall Street Journal actually did a graphic 1106 01:02:12,040 --> 01:02:16,040 Speaker 3: yesterday of food getting into Gaza. And you can see 1107 01:02:16,200 --> 01:02:18,600 Speaker 3: under Donald Trump's watch over the last six months that 1108 01:02:19,320 --> 01:02:23,240 Speaker 3: this is a problem, particularly for his administrations. As harsh 1109 01:02:23,240 --> 01:02:27,880 Speaker 3: as we were on the Biden administration, these problems are 1110 01:02:27,880 --> 01:02:30,720 Speaker 3: happening under Donald Trump's watch now, even as last summer 1111 01:02:30,760 --> 01:02:33,200 Speaker 3: he criticized by Nets and Yaho for his quote of 1112 01:02:33,240 --> 01:02:37,600 Speaker 3: a public relations problem in this case. So right now, 1113 01:02:37,680 --> 01:02:40,480 Speaker 3: if Donald Trump does not want to see these images 1114 01:02:40,640 --> 01:02:45,600 Speaker 3: coming out of Gaza, even as journalists aren't allowed into Gaza, 1115 01:02:45,640 --> 01:02:49,160 Speaker 3: that's another important point, then he actually has a lot 1116 01:02:49,160 --> 01:02:52,840 Speaker 3: of power to pressure Benjamin Nets and Yahoo to make 1117 01:02:52,880 --> 01:02:57,480 Speaker 3: it stop. So that's the test that's been failed under 1118 01:02:57,480 --> 01:03:01,200 Speaker 3: the Trump administration recently, but it's the test that's continuing 1119 01:03:01,240 --> 01:03:05,040 Speaker 3: to run that he can, he can prove us wrong, 1120 01:03:05,160 --> 01:03:06,160 Speaker 3: he can change course. 1121 01:03:06,640 --> 01:03:08,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, no doubt about it. And I think it's worth 1122 01:03:08,600 --> 01:03:12,040 Speaker 2: reminding people that we did have a ceasefire deal, you know, 1123 01:03:12,040 --> 01:03:13,720 Speaker 2: in the terms of which we're sort of originally laid 1124 01:03:13,760 --> 01:03:16,200 Speaker 2: out by the Biden administration. The Trump administration is able 1125 01:03:16,240 --> 01:03:19,640 Speaker 2: to secure it. And Natan Yahoo was always saying when 1126 01:03:19,680 --> 01:03:21,400 Speaker 2: he agreed to that deal, well, we're not going to 1127 01:03:21,480 --> 01:03:23,640 Speaker 2: go past phase one. Basically, we're going to have a pause, 1128 01:03:23,960 --> 01:03:25,840 Speaker 2: we're going to regroup, and then we're going to go 1129 01:03:25,960 --> 01:03:29,920 Speaker 2: right back to war, death, destruction, starvation. The only person 1130 01:03:30,120 --> 01:03:33,440 Speaker 2: who could have made sure that that deal was actually 1131 01:03:33,600 --> 01:03:37,960 Speaker 2: enforced and a ceasefire to this genocide was actually you know, 1132 01:03:38,080 --> 01:03:41,720 Speaker 2: took cold and we moved to something other than genocide, 1133 01:03:41,760 --> 01:03:45,440 Speaker 2: ethnic cleansing, starvation, et cetera. Was Donald Trump, And instead 1134 01:03:45,560 --> 01:03:48,960 Speaker 2: he greenlit the Israelis backing out of that deal, blowing 1135 01:03:48,960 --> 01:03:52,560 Speaker 2: it up and going right back to, you know, effectuating 1136 01:03:52,600 --> 01:03:56,360 Speaker 2: what we're we're seeing right now. It seems emily like 1137 01:03:56,400 --> 01:03:58,600 Speaker 2: there's been and we've we've covered some of this before, 1138 01:03:58,960 --> 01:04:01,360 Speaker 2: but it does seem like there's been a real break 1139 01:04:01,680 --> 01:04:06,000 Speaker 2: in the culture. And you hear voices. You know, people 1140 01:04:06,000 --> 01:04:09,160 Speaker 2: who are willing to speak out and speak out more stridently. 1141 01:04:09,560 --> 01:04:12,560 Speaker 2: One of those people is John Stewart, who had on 1142 01:04:12,640 --> 01:04:16,800 Speaker 2: Peter Binnert to talk about what was unfolding in Gaza. 1143 01:04:17,040 --> 01:04:19,280 Speaker 2: And it's not that John Stewart hasn't been critical at 1144 01:04:19,280 --> 01:04:21,720 Speaker 2: all before, but I think some of the strength of 1145 01:04:21,760 --> 01:04:24,479 Speaker 2: his language here was notable. So let's take a listen 1146 01:04:24,520 --> 01:04:24,720 Speaker 2: to that. 1147 01:04:25,360 --> 01:04:29,160 Speaker 15: I feel like I'm watching something that is so self 1148 01:04:29,680 --> 01:04:36,640 Speaker 15: evidently inhumane and horrific, and to be told that I 1149 01:04:36,720 --> 01:04:42,280 Speaker 15: have to shut up because I risk the Jewish state 1150 01:04:42,440 --> 01:04:47,000 Speaker 15: by speaking out, I would say the opposite. I think 1151 01:04:47,040 --> 01:04:50,640 Speaker 15: they're putting the likelihood of a surviving Jewish state much 1152 01:04:50,640 --> 01:04:54,120 Speaker 15: more at risk with this type of action. I think 1153 01:04:54,160 --> 01:04:55,920 Speaker 15: they're the ones that are. 1154 01:04:57,200 --> 01:04:59,400 Speaker 7: That are being anti If you want. 1155 01:04:59,400 --> 01:05:02,880 Speaker 15: To to find how with the definition of anti Semitism, would 1156 01:05:02,880 --> 01:05:06,000 Speaker 15: probably have to bomb himself. But there's an urgency about 1157 01:05:06,040 --> 01:05:11,360 Speaker 15: it now because like, right now in this situation, we 1158 01:05:11,400 --> 01:05:13,280 Speaker 15: can't be like but Jews are not getting along with 1159 01:05:13,320 --> 01:05:15,240 Speaker 15: other Jews, Like that's not the important thing, right that, 1160 01:05:15,560 --> 01:05:20,240 Speaker 15: How is the world not stepping in right and stopping 1161 01:05:20,280 --> 01:05:23,120 Speaker 15: this atrocity? I don't understand this in any way shape. 1162 01:05:23,280 --> 01:05:24,640 Speaker 7: I mean, it's nooggling my mind. 1163 01:05:24,680 --> 01:05:26,320 Speaker 4: It's worse than just not stepping in. 1164 01:05:26,640 --> 01:05:29,720 Speaker 9: It's our weapons that are that are that are enforcing 1165 01:05:29,760 --> 01:05:32,160 Speaker 9: this siege that it's enforcing this mass starvation. 1166 01:05:32,320 --> 01:05:34,840 Speaker 7: It's a siege. It's a military siege, yes, that we 1167 01:05:34,920 --> 01:05:36,680 Speaker 7: are deeply complicit in. 1168 01:05:36,920 --> 01:05:39,280 Speaker 5: It could not happen without us. 1169 01:05:39,960 --> 01:05:42,800 Speaker 2: And you know, John Stewart's a liberal, Peter Buyinnart's a liberal. 1170 01:05:42,880 --> 01:05:45,440 Speaker 2: I think that's part of why, you know, Peter Buyinart 1171 01:05:45,480 --> 01:05:47,960 Speaker 2: is accepted in these sort of like mainstream liberal spaces, 1172 01:05:48,000 --> 01:05:50,520 Speaker 2: which is I think part of why he's been such 1173 01:05:50,560 --> 01:05:55,120 Speaker 2: an important voice. And there's a portion of this interview 1174 01:05:55,640 --> 01:05:58,840 Speaker 2: where you know, John Stewart says something like basically like listen, 1175 01:05:58,880 --> 01:06:01,720 Speaker 2: I don't know every single in and out of what's 1176 01:06:01,760 --> 01:06:03,880 Speaker 2: happened over all of these many years, but I know 1177 01:06:03,960 --> 01:06:06,480 Speaker 2: what I'm seeing and I have a moral clarity around it. 1178 01:06:06,840 --> 01:06:10,480 Speaker 2: And I think that part is very important because that 1179 01:06:10,600 --> 01:06:13,960 Speaker 2: has previously been the way that liberals have been sort 1180 01:06:14,000 --> 01:06:16,440 Speaker 2: of shut down. It's very easy to say, look, you 1181 01:06:16,480 --> 01:06:19,720 Speaker 2: don't under it's complicated, and you just don't understand all 1182 01:06:19,760 --> 01:06:21,680 Speaker 2: the ins and the outs, and you need to study eight. 1183 01:06:21,800 --> 01:06:24,320 Speaker 2: You know, history for eighteen years before you can dare 1184 01:06:24,440 --> 01:06:27,640 Speaker 2: have an opinion on this, And I just think at 1185 01:06:27,640 --> 01:06:31,440 Speaker 2: this point, Emily, that has been so thoroughly rejected because 1186 01:06:31,480 --> 01:06:34,200 Speaker 2: people go, no, I can see what's happening. 1187 01:06:35,080 --> 01:06:35,560 Speaker 5: It's wrong. 1188 01:06:35,880 --> 01:06:38,439 Speaker 2: And I don't need to know what happened in June 1189 01:06:38,440 --> 01:06:42,200 Speaker 2: of nineteen forty eight or whatever to understand that bombing 1190 01:06:42,280 --> 01:06:45,640 Speaker 2: and murdering children and starving them to death, and denying 1191 01:06:45,680 --> 01:06:49,000 Speaker 2: baby formula and medicine and turning the entire Gaza strip 1192 01:06:49,000 --> 01:06:51,480 Speaker 2: into rubble. I don't need to know everything about this 1193 01:06:51,600 --> 01:06:54,160 Speaker 2: to know that that thing that I'm seeing right now 1194 01:06:54,320 --> 01:06:56,760 Speaker 2: is wrong. It actually reminds me of the Tim Dillon 1195 01:06:57,320 --> 01:07:00,960 Speaker 2: bit on this where he's talking about miss Rachel and 1196 01:07:00,960 --> 01:07:04,160 Speaker 2: he's like, you know, when I see children being bombed, 1197 01:07:04,440 --> 01:07:08,200 Speaker 2: I think, huh. And I read a book and I 1198 01:07:08,240 --> 01:07:10,680 Speaker 2: get to the end, and somewhere in that book, I'm 1199 01:07:10,680 --> 01:07:13,320 Speaker 2: going to learn why these children are being bombed. And 1200 01:07:13,360 --> 01:07:16,880 Speaker 2: he's obviously mocking the idea that there is some like 1201 01:07:17,400 --> 01:07:22,760 Speaker 2: nuanced historical perspective on why it's acceptable to starve infant 1202 01:07:22,800 --> 01:07:25,720 Speaker 2: babies to death and bomb them in their tents. 1203 01:07:26,200 --> 01:07:29,120 Speaker 3: So I think when the history of the post October 1204 01:07:29,200 --> 01:07:33,760 Speaker 3: seventh Foreign Policy is written last week will have to 1205 01:07:33,800 --> 01:07:36,800 Speaker 3: be pinpointed as the turning point. Like I think you're 1206 01:07:36,840 --> 01:07:41,680 Speaker 3: exactly right, Crystal, that something changed last week. And I 1207 01:07:41,720 --> 01:07:46,360 Speaker 3: know people like yourself who've been covering this very closely 1208 01:07:46,640 --> 01:07:51,720 Speaker 3: since October seventh would would say, you know, too little, 1209 01:07:51,760 --> 01:07:53,520 Speaker 3: too late at this point for a lot of people 1210 01:07:53,560 --> 01:07:58,480 Speaker 3: who came around last week. But you know, I guess 1211 01:07:58,520 --> 01:08:01,160 Speaker 3: you probably wouldn't say it exactly that, Crystal be I'm 1212 01:08:01,160 --> 01:08:05,880 Speaker 3: sure you know it's everyone appreciates people coming and recognizing 1213 01:08:06,000 --> 01:08:09,480 Speaker 3: what's happening. But it just seemed like last week the 1214 01:08:09,520 --> 01:08:12,360 Speaker 3: images that were flooding everybody's social. 1215 01:08:12,040 --> 01:08:14,760 Speaker 4: Media were what changed. 1216 01:08:15,680 --> 01:08:19,240 Speaker 3: It sort of created a gave people permission culturally to 1217 01:08:19,240 --> 01:08:21,760 Speaker 3: feel like it was okay. Is that you're read on 1218 01:08:21,800 --> 01:08:23,120 Speaker 3: it because so much of this is from the left. 1219 01:08:23,120 --> 01:08:24,679 Speaker 3: I know, we have a pod save clip what we're 1220 01:08:24,760 --> 01:08:27,840 Speaker 3: about to roll to me, That's what it seems is 1221 01:08:27,880 --> 01:08:32,640 Speaker 3: that it started to become acceptable, in fact unacceptable on 1222 01:08:32,680 --> 01:08:34,760 Speaker 3: the left. This was I think one of our takeaways 1223 01:08:34,760 --> 01:08:38,280 Speaker 3: from the Alyssa Slotkin interview you did yesterday. She was 1224 01:08:38,720 --> 01:08:42,679 Speaker 3: not running at all from condemning, she said she didn't 1225 01:08:42,680 --> 01:08:45,040 Speaker 3: want to use the word genocide, or at least that 1226 01:08:45,080 --> 01:08:47,240 Speaker 3: she was ambivalent on the word genocide. But she was 1227 01:08:47,680 --> 01:08:51,519 Speaker 3: forcefully condemning what it happened in the last week, almost 1228 01:08:51,560 --> 01:08:53,840 Speaker 3: eagerly condemning what it happened in the last week. I 1229 01:08:53,840 --> 01:08:58,320 Speaker 3: think there's democrats now realizing it's actually politically advantageous to 1230 01:08:58,800 --> 01:09:04,040 Speaker 3: lean into condemnations of what's happening right now. And that's 1231 01:09:04,080 --> 01:09:06,160 Speaker 3: to me one of the big changes. And I think 1232 01:09:06,160 --> 01:09:09,799 Speaker 3: it came from a lot of the images flooding people's 1233 01:09:09,840 --> 01:09:12,719 Speaker 3: social media last week, and it created maybe a permission structure. 1234 01:09:12,760 --> 01:09:13,640 Speaker 4: I don't know what do you make of that? 1235 01:09:14,400 --> 01:09:17,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I think that's right. Let me put 1236 01:09:17,720 --> 01:09:19,639 Speaker 2: Alyssa's lot kin to decide for a second and get 1237 01:09:19,680 --> 01:09:23,240 Speaker 2: back to that. I think the when babies are being 1238 01:09:23,280 --> 01:09:26,479 Speaker 2: starved to death, there's no oh, they're Hamas, there's no 1239 01:09:26,560 --> 01:09:29,280 Speaker 2: Hamas was fighting under the baby formula, Like, there's just 1240 01:09:29,400 --> 01:09:35,080 Speaker 2: no way of excusing it. Mass starvation. All two million 1241 01:09:35,120 --> 01:09:37,160 Speaker 2: or however many people are left in the Gaza strip 1242 01:09:37,200 --> 01:09:40,040 Speaker 2: are being starved, and they every one hundred percent of 1243 01:09:40,080 --> 01:09:43,000 Speaker 2: them are at some level of hunger and famine conditions. 1244 01:09:43,520 --> 01:09:46,200 Speaker 2: And that is not you know, an accident of nature 1245 01:09:46,400 --> 01:09:49,040 Speaker 2: the way the Western media you know, often portrays it 1246 01:09:49,080 --> 01:09:51,360 Speaker 2: of like hunger rises, as if that just came out 1247 01:09:51,360 --> 01:09:54,839 Speaker 2: of nowhere. You only get to one hundred percent famine 1248 01:09:55,600 --> 01:10:00,479 Speaker 2: through man made, intentional actions over many months, by the way, 1249 01:10:01,040 --> 01:10:05,120 Speaker 2: and so it just becomes undeniable. There's no cover story. 1250 01:10:05,760 --> 01:10:09,880 Speaker 2: And then when you see these images of these skeletal 1251 01:10:09,960 --> 01:10:15,080 Speaker 2: babies and children, it evokes the worst horrors from the 1252 01:10:15,160 --> 01:10:17,479 Speaker 2: history books that you can possibly imagine. 1253 01:10:17,520 --> 01:10:19,720 Speaker 4: Oh but they have pre existing conditions. 1254 01:10:19,960 --> 01:10:21,680 Speaker 2: Oh right, so then it's fine if we kill them. 1255 01:10:21,720 --> 01:10:23,240 Speaker 2: It's fine if they starve to death, if they have 1256 01:10:23,320 --> 01:10:26,520 Speaker 2: pre existing conditions. I mean, that's just so utterly grotesque. 1257 01:10:26,560 --> 01:10:29,120 Speaker 2: It's like, okay, so not only you keeping out the food, 1258 01:10:29,160 --> 01:10:31,040 Speaker 2: but yes, thank you for reminding us that you're also 1259 01:10:31,160 --> 01:10:35,400 Speaker 2: keeping out the medicine to you know, to proact and 1260 01:10:35,479 --> 01:10:39,599 Speaker 2: to be able to help children, the elderly, everybody who 1261 01:10:39,760 --> 01:10:43,880 Speaker 2: is there. And so I think that you know, that 1262 01:10:44,160 --> 01:10:46,880 Speaker 2: is part of why you're seeing this turning point in 1263 01:10:46,960 --> 01:10:50,160 Speaker 2: terms of the rhetoric right now, In terms of it's 1264 01:10:50,200 --> 01:10:54,760 Speaker 2: one thing if you are a commentator and you I 1265 01:10:54,800 --> 01:10:57,519 Speaker 2: think it's not enough to say okay, now, things are bad. 1266 01:10:57,560 --> 01:10:59,559 Speaker 2: I think you need to make amends. I think you 1267 01:10:59,600 --> 01:11:02,800 Speaker 2: need to I think there has to be a god 1268 01:11:02,800 --> 01:11:04,720 Speaker 2: I got this wrong, you know, I really thought the 1269 01:11:04,800 --> 01:11:08,519 Speaker 2: Israelis had good intention, like I having covered this so closely, 1270 01:11:08,760 --> 01:11:10,920 Speaker 2: and you you as well, Emily, Like, I don't know 1271 01:11:10,960 --> 01:11:13,320 Speaker 2: how you went all these many months without seeing this 1272 01:11:13,360 --> 01:11:16,040 Speaker 2: for what it was. When you have Israeli ministers announcing 1273 01:11:16,080 --> 01:11:18,679 Speaker 2: it publicly like it's in the President of the United 1274 01:11:18,720 --> 01:11:22,320 Speaker 2: States announcing it publicly, I don't know how you ignored that. 1275 01:11:22,439 --> 01:11:24,800 Speaker 2: And so I do think there has to be not 1276 01:11:25,040 --> 01:11:27,839 Speaker 2: just a oh now it's bad, but amea kulpa about 1277 01:11:28,320 --> 01:11:30,120 Speaker 2: how you got it wrong and the way that you 1278 01:11:30,240 --> 01:11:34,160 Speaker 2: helped feed into propaganda and lies to enable what we 1279 01:11:34,200 --> 01:11:37,320 Speaker 2: see before our eyes right now. If you are a 1280 01:11:37,360 --> 01:11:41,360 Speaker 2: person in power, if you are a senator like Lisa Slotkin, 1281 01:11:42,000 --> 01:11:44,760 Speaker 2: you didn't just It wasn't just your words. It wasn't 1282 01:11:44,800 --> 01:11:47,680 Speaker 2: just the fact that you spent your time condemning protesters 1283 01:11:47,720 --> 01:11:50,519 Speaker 2: who were trying to protest this versus condemning you know, 1284 01:11:50,640 --> 01:11:56,200 Speaker 2: the monsters who were murdering babies. You took votes like 1285 01:11:56,280 --> 01:12:00,320 Speaker 2: you used your power to help effectuate this outcome, And 1286 01:12:00,400 --> 01:12:03,240 Speaker 2: so what are you going to do now to make 1287 01:12:03,280 --> 01:12:06,760 Speaker 2: it right? I mean, you really, it goes a lot 1288 01:12:06,840 --> 01:12:09,840 Speaker 2: more than further than you know, I put out a 1289 01:12:09,880 --> 01:12:11,920 Speaker 2: tweet or you know, I'm willing to come on and 1290 01:12:12,320 --> 01:12:15,320 Speaker 2: condemn them or say this is wrong, but you know, well, 1291 01:12:15,360 --> 01:12:17,200 Speaker 2: I won't go so far as to call it ethnic cleansing, 1292 01:12:17,200 --> 01:12:18,400 Speaker 2: and I won't go so far as to call it 1293 01:12:18,400 --> 01:12:20,280 Speaker 2: a genocide. Mean, even if she was willing to call 1294 01:12:20,320 --> 01:12:23,920 Speaker 2: it a genocide, it's like, you voted for the weapons 1295 01:12:24,080 --> 01:12:27,080 Speaker 2: that went and did this and created this. What are 1296 01:12:27,120 --> 01:12:30,240 Speaker 2: you going to do to make it right? And so 1297 01:12:30,360 --> 01:12:32,639 Speaker 2: for me, that was kind of the you know, going 1298 01:12:32,680 --> 01:12:35,400 Speaker 2: into that interview, that was the important question. It remains 1299 01:12:35,400 --> 01:12:38,040 Speaker 2: for me the important question, even as Democrats start to 1300 01:12:38,080 --> 01:12:43,200 Speaker 2: realize slowly, vastly, belatedly, the political writing on the wall 1301 01:12:43,320 --> 01:12:48,000 Speaker 2: about how incredibly damaging this has been to their political 1302 01:12:48,000 --> 01:12:50,400 Speaker 2: prospects and the political prospects of their party. 1303 01:12:50,560 --> 01:12:51,240 Speaker 4: In the long term. 1304 01:12:51,280 --> 01:12:53,040 Speaker 3: By the way, just as you're saying that, I'm thinking 1305 01:12:53,320 --> 01:12:57,639 Speaker 3: to the safety also of people. If you're just purely 1306 01:12:57,680 --> 01:13:01,240 Speaker 3: from a cynical perspective, if you were Alissa Slatkin, and 1307 01:13:01,280 --> 01:13:04,120 Speaker 3: I guess this isn't necessarily cynical, But they're categorically cynical. 1308 01:13:04,160 --> 01:13:07,920 Speaker 3: But if you're Alyssa Slatkin, the situation that has been 1309 01:13:08,000 --> 01:13:12,679 Speaker 3: created for the country that you've been defending for however 1310 01:13:12,760 --> 01:13:15,479 Speaker 3: long now, the long term safety of the people there 1311 01:13:15,840 --> 01:13:18,360 Speaker 3: is that better now? Is that on a better trajectory? 1312 01:13:18,479 --> 01:13:20,320 Speaker 3: Is that what this was all for? Do do feel 1313 01:13:20,360 --> 01:13:26,000 Speaker 3: as though the future of Israel has now been preserved 1314 01:13:26,720 --> 01:13:30,439 Speaker 3: because of what's happened over the course of this war. 1315 01:13:30,520 --> 01:13:32,280 Speaker 4: I mean, it's just that. 1316 01:13:32,840 --> 01:13:38,320 Speaker 3: Question I think is going to haunt particularly Democrats who 1317 01:13:38,680 --> 01:13:41,840 Speaker 3: were always wary kind of nets Yahu and Lakud but 1318 01:13:42,360 --> 01:13:44,920 Speaker 3: supported the war itself. I mean, there wasn't a lot 1319 01:13:44,920 --> 01:13:48,439 Speaker 3: of hesitancy in the Republican Party about nets Yahu and Lakud. 1320 01:13:50,200 --> 01:13:53,840 Speaker 3: Obviously still among some people. There isn't on the Republican side, 1321 01:13:53,880 --> 01:13:56,320 Speaker 3: so many people on the Republican side. So I just 1322 01:13:56,320 --> 01:14:00,000 Speaker 3: think that question for Democrats who were wary of nets Yah, 1323 01:14:00,120 --> 01:14:02,760 Speaker 3: who is going to hang over their heads for a 1324 01:14:02,840 --> 01:14:05,360 Speaker 3: really long time and over their consciences as well. 1325 01:14:05,840 --> 01:14:07,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, No, I agree with that. I mean, if your 1326 01:14:07,520 --> 01:14:09,360 Speaker 2: goal was to like protect the Jewish state, this is 1327 01:14:09,360 --> 01:14:12,000 Speaker 2: what John Stewart talks about, you failed miserably. I mean, 1328 01:14:12,240 --> 01:14:14,680 Speaker 2: it sort of irritates me that it always has to 1329 01:14:14,720 --> 01:14:17,200 Speaker 2: be framed in the context of, like, well, what's good 1330 01:14:17,240 --> 01:14:21,080 Speaker 2: for the Israelis and the Palestinians themselves don't get to 1331 01:14:21,160 --> 01:14:25,720 Speaker 2: be you know, full humans and there just basic right 1332 01:14:25,800 --> 01:14:28,519 Speaker 2: to like live in dignity and he self determination. That 1333 01:14:28,560 --> 01:14:31,880 Speaker 2: could never be the central discussion, but that is I 1334 01:14:31,880 --> 01:14:34,680 Speaker 2: think the reality and the nature of American politics. 1335 01:14:35,880 --> 01:14:36,880 Speaker 5: Go ahead. And then I wanted to. 1336 01:14:37,160 --> 01:14:39,599 Speaker 2: Throw to the pod save thought, which I think is important. 1337 01:14:39,680 --> 01:14:40,920 Speaker 3: Well, no, I was just going to say, I mean 1338 01:14:40,960 --> 01:14:43,800 Speaker 3: it obviously to me Ateast it goes hand in hand 1339 01:14:43,880 --> 01:14:47,320 Speaker 3: that if you have peace in the region, it's better 1340 01:14:47,520 --> 01:14:52,400 Speaker 3: for everyone. And if you are not creating famine and 1341 01:14:52,520 --> 01:14:57,920 Speaker 3: destruction and rubble and as Trump says, cleaning h you know, 1342 01:14:58,000 --> 01:15:01,120 Speaker 3: swaths of land that people have done and fought for 1343 01:15:01,120 --> 01:15:04,719 Speaker 3: for decades, then you are more likely, no matter how. 1344 01:15:04,640 --> 01:15:05,160 Speaker 4: Difficult it is. 1345 01:15:05,200 --> 01:15:08,920 Speaker 3: It's definitely saying it's easy, but you're more likely to 1346 01:15:09,000 --> 01:15:12,759 Speaker 3: create a more peaceful and prosperous region. 1347 01:15:12,880 --> 01:15:15,080 Speaker 4: Of course, it's it's just it's obvious. 1348 01:15:15,280 --> 01:15:18,200 Speaker 2: So yeah, there's there's no military option here. You know, 1349 01:15:18,240 --> 01:15:21,280 Speaker 2: there's there's only you know, your ability to leave live 1350 01:15:21,320 --> 01:15:25,080 Speaker 2: peacefully with your neighbors. And you know, the the idea 1351 01:15:25,120 --> 01:15:28,320 Speaker 2: that Israel is like keeping even their own citizens safe, 1352 01:15:28,400 --> 01:15:31,400 Speaker 2: let it let alone, you know, Jewish people around the world, 1353 01:15:31,479 --> 01:15:34,720 Speaker 2: is just utterly preposterous at this point. The pod Save 1354 01:15:34,840 --> 01:15:37,000 Speaker 2: guys have been pretty good on this issue, and I 1355 01:15:37,000 --> 01:15:40,120 Speaker 2: think it's there. You know, they come out of Obama world. 1356 01:15:41,000 --> 01:15:43,200 Speaker 2: And also I think just the fact that they're not 1357 01:15:43,280 --> 01:15:46,519 Speaker 2: on a mainstream network, that they're online also creates, you know, 1358 01:15:46,680 --> 01:15:48,479 Speaker 2: different ecosystem that they're swimming in. 1359 01:15:48,560 --> 01:15:50,280 Speaker 4: But they own a company, don't they. 1360 01:15:50,800 --> 01:15:51,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, they they do. 1361 01:15:52,120 --> 01:15:53,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I mean I don't know all the financing 1362 01:15:53,920 --> 01:15:56,960 Speaker 2: structure and the ins and outs of that, but they 1363 01:15:57,400 --> 01:16:00,200 Speaker 2: came out very strongly in favor. Hey, you have to 1364 01:16:00,200 --> 01:16:02,400 Speaker 2: cut off all aid, and we need to look at 1365 01:16:02,439 --> 01:16:07,280 Speaker 2: sanctioning Israeli officials. And we can't like whenever this ends, 1366 01:16:07,360 --> 01:16:10,960 Speaker 2: we can't go back to what this relationship was before. 1367 01:16:11,040 --> 01:16:13,519 Speaker 2: Like this is over and done. Let's go ahead and 1368 01:16:13,520 --> 01:16:14,200 Speaker 2: take a listen to that. 1369 01:16:14,600 --> 01:16:16,800 Speaker 16: And I don't think Democratic candidates should take money from 1370 01:16:16,800 --> 01:16:19,879 Speaker 16: APEX or vote to fund military support for Israel anymore, 1371 01:16:19,920 --> 01:16:22,840 Speaker 16: Like I really don't. This government absolutely not, and that 1372 01:16:23,040 --> 01:16:26,080 Speaker 16: especially includes I think the next Democratic nominee for president. 1373 01:16:26,120 --> 01:16:27,840 Speaker 12: Things I want to see Democrats at least calling for 1374 01:16:27,960 --> 01:16:30,240 Speaker 12: is cutting off military system to Israel. It's a rich country. 1375 01:16:30,280 --> 01:16:31,519 Speaker 12: By the way, they don't need our three billion a 1376 01:16:31,560 --> 01:16:33,519 Speaker 12: year and hands up right back. Obama signed a ten 1377 01:16:33,560 --> 01:16:35,519 Speaker 12: year MoU for three point three billion a year. Like 1378 01:16:35,560 --> 01:16:37,559 Speaker 12: so we're part of the problem here, let's correct it. 1379 01:16:37,600 --> 01:16:40,280 Speaker 12: I would like to see talk about sanctioning Israeli government 1380 01:16:40,280 --> 01:16:44,360 Speaker 12: officials who use genocidal rhetoric or talk about ethnic cleansing openly. 1381 01:16:44,400 --> 01:16:46,559 Speaker 12: We should support a ceasefire resolution at the UN. We 1382 01:16:46,560 --> 01:16:49,479 Speaker 12: should demand that international press be allowed into the Gaza 1383 01:16:49,479 --> 01:16:51,840 Speaker 12: strip to report on what's happening without an IBF minder, 1384 01:16:51,880 --> 01:16:54,000 Speaker 12: it's insane. The press still can't go with the Gaza 1385 01:16:54,040 --> 01:16:55,599 Speaker 12: and cover what's happening. And I also think like there 1386 01:16:55,640 --> 01:16:58,040 Speaker 12: has to be a total mindset change in the Democratic 1387 01:16:58,040 --> 01:16:59,800 Speaker 12: Party when the war ends. We are not going back 1388 01:16:59,800 --> 01:17:02,519 Speaker 12: to the pre October seventh status quo because it's where 1389 01:17:02,520 --> 01:17:03,960 Speaker 12: the party is not where the world is. We're not 1390 01:17:04,000 --> 01:17:06,439 Speaker 12: going to shovel billions a year in military aid. We're 1391 01:17:06,439 --> 01:17:08,800 Speaker 12: not going to veto every effort to recognize a Palestinian 1392 01:17:08,800 --> 01:17:11,280 Speaker 12: state at the UN we should not take money from APAC, 1393 01:17:11,360 --> 01:17:13,439 Speaker 12: and like I will hold out hope for better political 1394 01:17:13,520 --> 01:17:15,720 Speaker 12: leadership in the US and in Israel, but we often 1395 01:17:15,800 --> 01:17:19,040 Speaker 12: also recognize that the Biden era Hugby b Neet Yaho's 1396 01:17:19,040 --> 01:17:21,519 Speaker 12: strategy has to be thrown in the trash can for 1397 01:17:21,600 --> 01:17:24,720 Speaker 12: fucking ever. Netnyah, who's a bad actor. He's continuing a 1398 01:17:24,760 --> 01:17:27,559 Speaker 12: war for political purposes. He bombs Lebanon when he wants to, 1399 01:17:27,560 --> 01:17:29,280 Speaker 12: he bombs a Run when he wants to be bomb 1400 01:17:29,320 --> 01:17:30,840 Speaker 12: Syria when he wants to do. This is not a 1401 01:17:30,840 --> 01:17:32,800 Speaker 12: partner we can count on. This is not someone who 1402 01:17:32,840 --> 01:17:35,599 Speaker 12: is like leading to calm and stability in the region, 1403 01:17:35,600 --> 01:17:36,799 Speaker 12: which should be a core interest. 1404 01:17:36,920 --> 01:17:39,120 Speaker 16: Like at this point, cutting off military funding for a 1405 01:17:39,120 --> 01:17:42,559 Speaker 16: government that is starving two million people and advertising how 1406 01:17:42,560 --> 01:17:45,479 Speaker 16: they're ethnically cleansing the Palestinians, it seems like the least 1407 01:17:45,560 --> 01:17:46,000 Speaker 16: we can. 1408 01:17:45,880 --> 01:17:47,560 Speaker 17: Do, especially as if we're going to head into a 1409 01:17:47,600 --> 01:17:50,160 Speaker 17: primary like table, stakes is going to be no more 1410 01:17:50,160 --> 01:17:52,240 Speaker 17: military for Israel, So there I will just will have 1411 01:17:52,320 --> 01:17:53,720 Speaker 17: to be a shift, and I do think that will 1412 01:17:53,720 --> 01:17:56,040 Speaker 17: mean putting far more pressure on Israel, and that's what 1413 01:17:56,080 --> 01:17:57,880 Speaker 17: I think Democrats want, by the way, that's what the 1414 01:17:57,880 --> 01:18:00,479 Speaker 17: country wants. And when you pull Israeli's they say they 1415 01:18:00,479 --> 01:18:03,360 Speaker 17: want a fucking cease fire. Israelis want the hostages returned 1416 01:18:03,439 --> 01:18:06,200 Speaker 17: through a negotiated settlement. And by the way, that's the 1417 01:18:06,200 --> 01:18:08,559 Speaker 17: way in which the vast majority of hostage who's who 1418 01:18:08,560 --> 01:18:10,519 Speaker 17: were returned were able to be returned. 1419 01:18:11,040 --> 01:18:16,000 Speaker 2: And they are way more in line with where Democrats are. 1420 01:18:16,080 --> 01:18:18,680 Speaker 2: I mean, there's like eight percent of Democrats who have 1421 01:18:18,720 --> 01:18:22,040 Speaker 2: a favorable view of Nanyahu and what's happening in Israel 1422 01:18:22,120 --> 01:18:23,880 Speaker 2: right now. I mean, it's nearly unanimous, and I think 1423 01:18:23,920 --> 01:18:27,040 Speaker 2: the eight percent that are like favorably inclined towards what's 1424 01:18:27,040 --> 01:18:29,880 Speaker 2: happening are all basically serving in the Congress in the 1425 01:18:29,920 --> 01:18:31,320 Speaker 2: United States. Tenant apparently. 1426 01:18:32,120 --> 01:18:35,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I mean in that clip too. I think 1427 01:18:35,520 --> 01:18:38,479 Speaker 3: it's and it's been going viral kind of pain around 1428 01:18:38,640 --> 01:18:42,200 Speaker 3: the internet. I think it's hopefully becoming clear to Democrats 1429 01:18:43,120 --> 01:18:45,479 Speaker 3: that it is, like whether they want it to be 1430 01:18:45,760 --> 01:18:49,120 Speaker 3: a different era or not, the page has been turned. 1431 01:18:49,280 --> 01:18:53,240 Speaker 3: And I do think crystal some of it from those guys. 1432 01:18:53,320 --> 01:18:55,200 Speaker 3: I'm curious what your take is on this. I do 1433 01:18:55,280 --> 01:18:57,839 Speaker 3: think some of that is a little bit cynical because 1434 01:18:57,920 --> 01:19:02,080 Speaker 3: they are so immersive in like they have a really 1435 01:19:02,120 --> 01:19:04,799 Speaker 3: popular podcast. So they're kind of in the new media space, 1436 01:19:05,040 --> 01:19:08,440 Speaker 3: and the new media space tends to be super anti establishment. 1437 01:19:08,479 --> 01:19:10,519 Speaker 4: It's not all anti establishment, but a lot of it is. 1438 01:19:10,479 --> 01:19:13,400 Speaker 3: Because frankly, that's where a lot of younger Americans are. 1439 01:19:13,439 --> 01:19:14,960 Speaker 3: And when I say younger, I mean like people under 1440 01:19:14,960 --> 01:19:17,600 Speaker 3: forty and I'm just talking about like zoomers here, and 1441 01:19:17,680 --> 01:19:23,639 Speaker 3: so I think you've seen them respond to what they've 1442 01:19:23,680 --> 01:19:26,680 Speaker 3: seen and it's it's taken them to that place. But 1443 01:19:26,680 --> 01:19:30,680 Speaker 3: obviously they're calling for policy consequences, concrete policy consequences. So 1444 01:19:31,240 --> 01:19:33,000 Speaker 3: maybe I'm being too cynical in this case. 1445 01:19:33,680 --> 01:19:36,080 Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know exactly, but I think that 1446 01:19:36,560 --> 01:19:39,200 Speaker 2: they I mean, I don't know, it seems pretty genuine 1447 01:19:39,240 --> 01:19:41,759 Speaker 2: to me. I think the difference is that they don't 1448 01:19:41,840 --> 01:19:45,479 Speaker 2: have these other competing pressures to keep them from saying 1449 01:19:45,560 --> 01:19:49,879 Speaker 2: what is like abundantly obvious interesting, like anyone who's paying attention, people. 1450 01:19:49,680 --> 01:19:52,080 Speaker 3: Want access to them, if that makes sense, right, Like 1451 01:19:52,120 --> 01:19:55,560 Speaker 3: that the mean dying an interviewed congressmen. 1452 01:19:55,640 --> 01:19:58,240 Speaker 2: Right, And I mean, you know, usually interviewing congressman to 1453 01:19:58,400 --> 01:20:02,200 Speaker 2: now as you're staying off. So you know, when you're 1454 01:20:02,520 --> 01:20:06,080 Speaker 2: existing in this ecosystem, it just it doesn't have to 1455 01:20:06,120 --> 01:20:08,200 Speaker 2: be your your number one priority. And I do think 1456 01:20:08,200 --> 01:20:10,040 Speaker 2: that a lot of Democrats still will want to go 1457 01:20:10,120 --> 01:20:12,840 Speaker 2: on with them, just because they've established themselves as sort 1458 01:20:12,880 --> 01:20:17,679 Speaker 2: of like you know, the democratic independent media central hub. 1459 01:20:18,840 --> 01:20:22,680 Speaker 2: But yeah, they you know, I think they are an 1460 01:20:22,720 --> 01:20:27,640 Speaker 2: important signal of where the Democratic base is, and I 1461 01:20:27,640 --> 01:20:31,200 Speaker 2: don't think anything they said will be controversial among anyone 1462 01:20:31,479 --> 01:20:36,679 Speaker 2: outside of like the Beltway. Basically what where they are 1463 01:20:36,920 --> 01:20:39,960 Speaker 2: is we're going to cover this with Soroan like sixty 1464 01:20:40,000 --> 01:20:42,400 Speaker 2: seven percent of Democrats in New York were like, you're right, 1465 01:20:42,439 --> 01:20:44,240 Speaker 2: we should arrest at and Yahoo if he comes to 1466 01:20:44,320 --> 01:20:46,599 Speaker 2: New York. You are absolutely right about that. Some eighty 1467 01:20:46,640 --> 01:20:49,000 Speaker 2: percent or like it is a genocide. I mean, this 1468 01:20:49,120 --> 01:20:52,439 Speaker 2: is just consensus now among a lot of the public, 1469 01:20:52,520 --> 01:20:56,000 Speaker 2: but certainly inside of the Democratic base and the gulf 1470 01:20:56,040 --> 01:20:59,479 Speaker 2: between the Democratic leadership and where the base is is 1471 01:20:59,560 --> 01:21:02,439 Speaker 2: not some thing that can persist, and over time it 1472 01:21:02,479 --> 01:21:05,280 Speaker 2: won't persist. The only question is whether or not that 1473 01:21:05,520 --> 01:21:09,000 Speaker 2: you know, makes any sort of political difference for Palestinians 1474 01:21:09,000 --> 01:21:11,720 Speaker 2: who are right now, you know, being starved and displaced 1475 01:21:11,720 --> 01:21:16,160 Speaker 2: and you know, having this genocide committed against them. There 1476 01:21:16,160 --> 01:21:18,240 Speaker 2: were a couple of other things we wanted to note 1477 01:21:18,360 --> 01:21:21,920 Speaker 2: quickly in this block. First of all, Randy Fine the 1478 01:21:21,960 --> 01:21:24,880 Speaker 2: most disgusting member of Congress. I think it's fair to say, 1479 01:21:24,960 --> 01:21:27,200 Speaker 2: I think we could probably unanimously agree on that. He 1480 01:21:27,280 --> 01:21:30,879 Speaker 2: said that Palestinian should starve away. He called his colleague 1481 01:21:30,920 --> 01:21:33,759 Speaker 2: il Han Omer a Muslim terrorists. He said Gaza should 1482 01:21:33,760 --> 01:21:38,000 Speaker 2: be nuked. He has gotten a Republican primary opponent who 1483 01:21:38,080 --> 01:21:39,920 Speaker 2: is calling him out. We could put this before up 1484 01:21:39,960 --> 01:21:42,160 Speaker 2: on the screen. Who's calling him out specifically on some 1485 01:21:42,200 --> 01:21:44,360 Speaker 2: of these things he says, I do not support this 1486 01:21:44,479 --> 01:21:47,759 Speaker 2: is Aaron Baker is his opponent. I do not support 1487 01:21:47,760 --> 01:21:50,920 Speaker 2: starving children. I do not support punishing citizens for having 1488 01:21:50,960 --> 01:21:53,040 Speaker 2: the worst government in existence. It's my goal to make 1489 01:21:53,040 --> 01:21:55,519 Speaker 2: you a one term congressman. If you agree, please consider 1490 01:21:55,520 --> 01:21:58,479 Speaker 2: supporting me to represent floor to six. I know nothing 1491 01:21:58,520 --> 01:22:00,280 Speaker 2: about this man. He's a Republican. I'm I'm sure I 1492 01:22:00,320 --> 01:22:02,679 Speaker 2: disagree with him on many things. It is a very 1493 01:22:02,800 --> 01:22:05,280 Speaker 2: heavily Republican district. I don't know, like R plus thirty 1494 01:22:05,280 --> 01:22:09,360 Speaker 2: two or something Republican district. There is no way that 1495 01:22:09,439 --> 01:22:12,479 Speaker 2: He's not better than Randy Fine, no way, support I 1496 01:22:12,520 --> 01:22:14,920 Speaker 2: don't know who he is, support him. He's got to 1497 01:22:14,960 --> 01:22:18,679 Speaker 2: be better than Randy Fine. He could not possibly be worse. 1498 01:22:18,720 --> 01:22:20,320 Speaker 2: The fact that he's willing to say, you know what, 1499 01:22:20,400 --> 01:22:23,519 Speaker 2: I don't support I don't actually support starving children. That 1500 01:22:23,600 --> 01:22:28,559 Speaker 2: already puts him like miles head and shoulders above Randy Fine. 1501 01:22:28,600 --> 01:22:31,240 Speaker 2: So that'll be an interesting one to watch play out, 1502 01:22:31,280 --> 01:22:35,000 Speaker 2: because even though it's this overwhelmingly Republican district, Andy Fine 1503 01:22:35,040 --> 01:22:39,360 Speaker 2: didn't win by that much. The Democrats vastly, vastly overperformed 1504 01:22:39,400 --> 01:22:42,720 Speaker 2: because he's just such a disgusting, grotesque, monstrous figure that 1505 01:22:42,800 --> 01:22:45,519 Speaker 2: even Republican partisans were like, I don't know about this guy. 1506 01:22:45,920 --> 01:22:50,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, and he's already hitting Randy Fine on APAK. So 1507 01:22:50,000 --> 01:22:52,120 Speaker 3: I'm on Aaron Baker's X right now. So this is 1508 01:22:52,160 --> 01:22:54,680 Speaker 3: twelve hours ago. People can go look it up. But 1509 01:22:55,200 --> 01:22:57,479 Speaker 3: his seems that I've gotten a lot of support in 1510 01:22:57,520 --> 01:23:00,800 Speaker 3: the last twenty four hours, particularly since he went after 1511 01:23:00,880 --> 01:23:05,040 Speaker 3: Randy Fine on this issue, And that's just interesting in 1512 01:23:05,040 --> 01:23:05,639 Speaker 3: and of itself. 1513 01:23:06,760 --> 01:23:08,040 Speaker 4: You almost don't even need to say it. 1514 01:23:08,280 --> 01:23:11,000 Speaker 3: The fact that you have a Republican candidate in a 1515 01:23:11,080 --> 01:23:17,560 Speaker 3: deep red district saying what he's saying right now is fascinating, 1516 01:23:17,680 --> 01:23:19,920 Speaker 3: And I would say as red as this district is, 1517 01:23:20,600 --> 01:23:23,559 Speaker 3: it's one to watch because it seems like it'll probably 1518 01:23:23,560 --> 01:23:26,880 Speaker 3: involve a whole lot of outside money in order to 1519 01:23:27,040 --> 01:23:28,840 Speaker 3: try and make a point, a lot of these races 1520 01:23:28,880 --> 01:23:31,920 Speaker 3: become even if they're not super competitive, it's going to 1521 01:23:31,920 --> 01:23:34,240 Speaker 3: be a Republican seat no matter what. They become proxy 1522 01:23:34,320 --> 01:23:38,679 Speaker 3: competitions to see. You know, in some sense, it's almost 1523 01:23:38,720 --> 01:23:40,679 Speaker 3: not that useful because it'll be an outlier in terms 1524 01:23:40,680 --> 01:23:43,120 Speaker 3: of money that probably goes in if that's what happens 1525 01:23:42,880 --> 01:23:46,360 Speaker 3: for Randy Fine from groups like APAC and others. But 1526 01:23:46,520 --> 01:23:50,080 Speaker 3: we'll see who ends up supporting Aaron Baker in this 1527 01:23:50,200 --> 01:23:51,799 Speaker 3: race against Randy Fine. 1528 01:23:51,560 --> 01:23:52,479 Speaker 4: Who's been called out. 1529 01:23:52,920 --> 01:23:54,839 Speaker 3: Fine has been called up by people like Tucker Carls 1530 01:23:54,840 --> 01:23:57,360 Speaker 3: and others on the right in recent days. 1531 01:23:57,400 --> 01:23:59,760 Speaker 4: So this is one to watch for sure. 1532 01:24:00,320 --> 01:24:03,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, and there was a whole flap apparently APAC took 1533 01:24:03,200 --> 01:24:05,600 Speaker 2: him down off of their list of indoors candidates, and 1534 01:24:05,640 --> 01:24:07,559 Speaker 2: people were wondering, like, oh, did he go too far 1535 01:24:07,640 --> 01:24:10,080 Speaker 2: even for a pack APAC to put out a statement 1536 01:24:10,120 --> 01:24:11,960 Speaker 2: saying no, no, we just haven't you know, I don't know. 1537 01:24:12,000 --> 01:24:14,799 Speaker 2: They said basically, they're still behind him. But I do wonder, 1538 01:24:14,880 --> 01:24:17,000 Speaker 2: if you know, when you've got this guy out there 1539 01:24:17,040 --> 01:24:21,400 Speaker 2: just saying these horrifically monstrous, genocidal things like starve away, 1540 01:24:21,720 --> 01:24:24,559 Speaker 2: if APAC doesn't find him particularly all that helpful to 1541 01:24:24,600 --> 01:24:26,800 Speaker 2: their cause, it might be too out there even for 1542 01:24:26,840 --> 01:24:29,479 Speaker 2: them to really go to the mat to try to 1543 01:24:29,600 --> 01:24:30,360 Speaker 2: keep him in place. 1544 01:24:30,400 --> 01:24:32,240 Speaker 5: I don't know. Maybe they do, maybe they don't, but 1545 01:24:32,280 --> 01:24:33,280 Speaker 5: that's just a question for me. 1546 01:24:33,439 --> 01:24:36,360 Speaker 3: He's asking Mike Johnson whether he'll remove Randy Fine from 1547 01:24:36,360 --> 01:24:40,599 Speaker 3: the Foreign Affairs Committee. That's another wow, sizzling hot post 1548 01:24:40,640 --> 01:24:42,479 Speaker 3: from Aaron Baker fifteen hours ago. 1549 01:24:42,680 --> 01:24:44,080 Speaker 4: So that's a good question. 1550 01:24:44,240 --> 01:24:46,200 Speaker 3: Actually, it's a good question for when they come back 1551 01:24:46,200 --> 01:24:49,760 Speaker 3: from August recess, because when even Apak was taking a 1552 01:24:49,760 --> 01:24:55,680 Speaker 3: step back at least in the public realm from Randy Fine. 1553 01:24:55,840 --> 01:24:57,439 Speaker 4: There you go, it's a question for Mike Johnson. 1554 01:24:57,880 --> 01:25:00,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, one last thing just quickly that I really is 1555 01:25:00,800 --> 01:25:02,760 Speaker 2: very important that I wanted to get to Chris Malls, 1556 01:25:02,800 --> 01:25:05,960 Speaker 2: who's the president of the Amazon Labor Union, who Sager 1557 01:25:06,040 --> 01:25:08,360 Speaker 2: and I've known for years at this point, and you know, 1558 01:25:08,439 --> 01:25:11,120 Speaker 2: interviewed him multiple times. I've met him and spoke spoken 1559 01:25:11,160 --> 01:25:11,840 Speaker 2: with him in person. 1560 01:25:11,880 --> 01:25:14,320 Speaker 5: He went on Gaza Aid flotilla. 1561 01:25:14,840 --> 01:25:19,040 Speaker 2: That flotilla, you know, the Israelis seized in international waters, 1562 01:25:19,120 --> 01:25:21,800 Speaker 2: wildly illegal, basically kidnapping them off of the ship with 1563 01:25:22,120 --> 01:25:24,400 Speaker 2: no right to do it. And we can put B 1564 01:25:24,520 --> 01:25:28,680 Speaker 2: five up on the screen. Chris Malls, in particular, it appears, 1565 01:25:28,960 --> 01:25:33,080 Speaker 2: was singled out for direct physical abuse. The Freedom Flotilla 1566 01:25:33,120 --> 01:25:37,320 Speaker 2: Coalition Cook confirms that upon arrival it Israeli custody US 1567 01:25:37,400 --> 01:25:40,360 Speaker 2: human rights defender Chris Malls was physically assaulted by seven 1568 01:25:40,479 --> 01:25:43,360 Speaker 2: uniformed individuals. They choked him, they kicked him in the legs, 1569 01:25:43,400 --> 01:25:45,760 Speaker 2: leaving visible signs of violence on his neck and back. 1570 01:25:45,800 --> 01:25:48,599 Speaker 2: The Freedom Flotilla Coalition wrote in a statement posted on 1571 01:25:48,720 --> 01:25:53,240 Speaker 2: Instagram on Tuesday morning, So this is an American citizen 1572 01:25:54,120 --> 01:25:55,639 Speaker 2: and they go on here, they say. When his lawyer 1573 01:25:55,680 --> 01:25:57,800 Speaker 2: met with him, Chris was surrounded by six members of 1574 01:25:57,880 --> 01:26:00,559 Speaker 2: israel special police unit. This level force was not used 1575 01:26:00,600 --> 01:26:04,759 Speaker 2: against other abducted activists. We condemned this violence against Chris 1576 01:26:04,760 --> 01:26:07,760 Speaker 2: and demand accountability for the assault and discriminatory treatment that 1577 01:26:07,800 --> 01:26:10,679 Speaker 2: he faced. Smalls was the only black person on board 1578 01:26:10,760 --> 01:26:12,879 Speaker 2: the boat. And he was one of twenty one members 1579 01:26:12,960 --> 01:26:16,479 Speaker 2: of the group who were detained. So again Chris Malls 1580 01:26:17,040 --> 01:26:22,559 Speaker 2: singled out for violent abuse at the hands of Israelis. Obviously, 1581 01:26:22,680 --> 01:26:26,960 Speaker 2: Chris is not only an American citizen, he is a 1582 01:26:27,280 --> 01:26:31,599 Speaker 2: labor leader. Amazon Labor Union is under the Team Stirs. 1583 01:26:31,640 --> 01:26:33,799 Speaker 2: At this point, you know, Sean O'Brien has been cozying 1584 01:26:33,960 --> 01:26:36,800 Speaker 2: up to Trump as far as I know, he hasn't 1585 01:26:36,800 --> 01:26:40,240 Speaker 2: put out any statement in support of Chris s Malls. 1586 01:26:40,280 --> 01:26:44,640 Speaker 2: But this is disgusting and outrageous behavior from the Israelis 1587 01:26:44,680 --> 01:26:48,519 Speaker 2: that deserves condemnation from every American and certainly every American leader. 1588 01:26:48,680 --> 01:26:52,320 Speaker 2: You know, when an American citizen is kidnapped and violently 1589 01:26:52,360 --> 01:26:55,840 Speaker 2: abused by our supposed ally there in the Middle East. 1590 01:26:56,320 --> 01:27:00,639 Speaker 4: Oh, Chris is recovering and back to back to health. 1591 01:27:00,720 --> 01:27:05,200 Speaker 4: Awful story.
