Did the FBI massively bungle 4 00:00:23,377 --> 00:00:28,297 Speaker 1: the investigation into Thomas Crooks, the would be assassin of 5 00:00:28,617 --> 00:00:32,577 Speaker 1: Donald Trump? We'll discuss that. Also, the latest on the 6 00:00:32,617 --> 00:00:36,657 Speaker 1: Epstein Transparency Act, the Epstein files as I speak to 7 00:00:36,697 --> 00:00:40,737 Speaker 1: you now, pending a Senate vote. The Senate vote may 8 00:00:40,737 --> 00:00:43,017 Speaker 1: have happened by the time you listen to this, it 9 00:00:43,017 --> 00:00:47,177 Speaker 1: could be imminent. But what's going to be in these files? 10 00:00:47,337 --> 00:00:50,377 Speaker 1: And what do we make of all this? Two massive 11 00:00:51,177 --> 00:00:55,217 Speaker 1: stories coming together this week, and I'm gonna try to 12 00:00:55,257 --> 00:00:57,097 Speaker 1: make sense of it. Now. There are gonna be people 13 00:00:57,137 --> 00:01:01,857 Speaker 1: who have more inflammatory things to say about all of this, 14 00:01:02,017 --> 00:01:06,377 Speaker 1: that are going to speak with more certainty, and almost 15 00:01:06,417 --> 00:01:08,297 Speaker 1: all of them, if not all of them, will end 16 00:01:08,337 --> 00:01:12,737 Speaker 1: up being wrong about this. I prefer to stick with 17 00:01:12,937 --> 00:01:16,537 Speaker 1: what we know, with what the facts are, and then 18 00:01:16,617 --> 00:01:22,137 Speaker 1: to analyze based upon reality and not some projection that 19 00:01:22,177 --> 00:01:23,537 Speaker 1: will just get a lot of clicks and a lot 20 00:01:23,537 --> 00:01:26,937 Speaker 1: of intention online. But let's start with Thomas Crooks. A 21 00:01:26,937 --> 00:01:30,337 Speaker 1: couple of days ago, there was the one to two 22 00:01:30,377 --> 00:01:34,737 Speaker 1: punch of Miranda Devines reporting. Miranda Devine has been phenomenal 23 00:01:34,777 --> 00:01:37,737 Speaker 1: on the Hunter Biden and Biden crime family stuff, so 24 00:01:38,337 --> 00:01:42,737 Speaker 1: very trusted, uh with just accurate reporting. I don't trust 25 00:01:42,817 --> 00:01:46,497 Speaker 1: her reporting because I like her, although I do I 26 00:01:46,577 --> 00:01:50,377 Speaker 1: trust her reporting because it has always been accurate and 27 00:01:50,417 --> 00:01:53,897 Speaker 1: she's got great sources and she has built a reputation 28 00:01:54,737 --> 00:01:58,537 Speaker 1: for accuracy in this profession. And then on top of that, 29 00:01:58,737 --> 00:02:05,577 Speaker 1: the always fearless Tucker Carlson doing a whole series if 30 00:02:05,617 --> 00:02:10,057 Speaker 1: you will, or it was a video on Thomas Crooks 31 00:02:10,577 --> 00:02:15,337 Speaker 1: and that it seems there were online activities that Crooks 32 00:02:15,377 --> 00:02:20,897 Speaker 1: was engaged in that the FBI entirely Now there's two 33 00:02:20,937 --> 00:02:24,217 Speaker 1: ways to go. They either missed it, which means the 34 00:02:24,257 --> 00:02:28,697 Speaker 1: FBI is less capable of doing basic online research than 35 00:02:29,617 --> 00:02:33,657 Speaker 1: dedicated citizens looths at home. I don't think that's actually impossible. 36 00:02:33,777 --> 00:02:39,457 Speaker 1: I think that there's massive, massive capability and really interest 37 00:02:39,617 --> 00:02:42,337 Speaker 1: as in are they interested in doing their jobs gaps 38 00:02:42,377 --> 00:02:44,737 Speaker 1: at the FBI. But the other part of this is 39 00:02:44,897 --> 00:02:50,417 Speaker 1: was this for some reason suppressed? Here's what came out. 40 00:02:51,017 --> 00:02:55,657 Speaker 1: You have the FBI, or rather you have the Miranda 41 00:02:55,697 --> 00:03:01,297 Speaker 1: Devine report saying that pronouns they them, and Crooks used 42 00:03:01,297 --> 00:03:04,057 Speaker 1: the pronouns they them in one of his accounts something 43 00:03:04,097 --> 00:03:07,297 Speaker 1: called deviant Art, some website that he had set up, 44 00:03:07,337 --> 00:03:11,617 Speaker 1: and also that he was into kind of furry stuff. Now, 45 00:03:11,657 --> 00:03:16,817 Speaker 1: this is there's limited information on this so far, even 46 00:03:17,817 --> 00:03:20,577 Speaker 1: basing this on what has been reported by those who 47 00:03:20,617 --> 00:03:23,737 Speaker 1: are on the very cutting edge of it. But why 48 00:03:23,777 --> 00:03:28,017 Speaker 1: wouldn't we know that, Why wouldn't that have already been 49 00:03:28,097 --> 00:03:32,457 Speaker 1: out there the FBI, I mean, Tucker tweeted this out. 50 00:03:32,497 --> 00:03:34,977 Speaker 1: The FBI told us Thomas Crooks tried to kill Donald 51 00:03:34,977 --> 00:03:38,457 Speaker 1: Trump last summer, but somehow he had no online footprint. 52 00:03:38,457 --> 00:03:40,337 Speaker 1: The FBI lied, and we could prove it because we 53 00:03:40,377 --> 00:03:43,097 Speaker 1: have his posts. The question is why story posted tomorrow? 54 00:03:43,257 --> 00:03:45,617 Speaker 1: So that was what Tucker posted, got millions and millions 55 00:03:45,657 --> 00:03:50,657 Speaker 1: and millions of hits. And it does seem like Tucker 56 00:03:50,777 --> 00:03:53,497 Speaker 1: and Miranda, who have a similar I believe the same 57 00:03:53,577 --> 00:04:00,057 Speaker 1: source on this, have found something that the FBI had 58 00:04:00,097 --> 00:04:03,377 Speaker 1: and did not tell the public about with regard to 59 00:04:03,497 --> 00:04:08,537 Speaker 1: this shooter. Remember, he did shoot the president or then 60 00:04:08,897 --> 00:04:12,657 Speaker 1: would be President Trump were running for President Trump. But 61 00:04:13,497 --> 00:04:18,417 Speaker 1: it's hard to understand how we're supposed to have faith 62 00:04:18,417 --> 00:04:21,577 Speaker 1: and trust in the FBI if information like this is 63 00:04:21,697 --> 00:04:24,617 Speaker 1: kept from the public when the public is capable of 64 00:04:24,617 --> 00:04:28,697 Speaker 1: finding it themselves now, Director Patel, Director Cash Pttel is 65 00:04:28,697 --> 00:04:32,897 Speaker 1: a friend of mine and I know to be an 66 00:04:32,937 --> 00:04:35,297 Speaker 1: honorable guy, and he's getting a lot of heat these days. 67 00:04:35,337 --> 00:04:37,417 Speaker 1: And I get it. I understand people are very upset 68 00:04:37,417 --> 00:04:39,937 Speaker 1: about a few things that are going on. Here is 69 00:04:39,977 --> 00:04:44,577 Speaker 1: what he shared about the Crooks case on Twitter. Over 70 00:04:44,657 --> 00:04:47,537 Speaker 1: four hundred and eighty FBI employees were involved in the 71 00:04:47,537 --> 00:04:51,857 Speaker 1: Thomas Crooks investigation. Employees conducted over a thousand interviews, addressed 72 00:04:51,857 --> 00:04:54,937 Speaker 1: over two thousand public tips, analyze, et cetera, et cetera, 73 00:04:54,977 --> 00:04:59,057 Speaker 1: et cetera. The FBI's investigation into Thomas Crooks identified and 74 00:04:59,097 --> 00:05:03,097 Speaker 1: examined over twenty online accounts, data extracted from over a 75 00:05:03,177 --> 00:05:07,697 Speaker 1: dozen electronic devices, examination of numerous financial accounts, et cetera, 76 00:05:07,737 --> 00:05:12,897 Speaker 1: et cetera. FBI investigation revealed Crooks had limited online and 77 00:05:12,937 --> 00:05:16,697 Speaker 1: in person interactions, plan and conducted the attack alone. It 78 00:05:16,737 --> 00:05:19,417 Speaker 1: did not leak or share his intent to do the 79 00:05:19,457 --> 00:05:24,737 Speaker 1: attack with anyone, with anyone else. And that's what the 80 00:05:24,737 --> 00:05:26,337 Speaker 1: director said. I'm going to tell you a lot of 81 00:05:26,337 --> 00:05:30,897 Speaker 1: people are just saying they don't believe this. A lot 82 00:05:30,897 --> 00:05:36,137 Speaker 1: of people are saying that they have a problem with this. 83 00:05:36,137 --> 00:05:40,617 Speaker 1: This is tough because the FBI as an institution does 84 00:05:40,657 --> 00:05:43,937 Speaker 1: not deserve any benefit of the doubt. In fact, if anything, 85 00:05:43,977 --> 00:05:45,617 Speaker 1: they deserve the doubt of the benefit of that's the 86 00:05:45,617 --> 00:05:49,097 Speaker 1: thing they deserve to be the FBI on any matter 87 00:05:49,217 --> 00:05:55,177 Speaker 1: of political consequence, anything where are partisan divide and clearly, 88 00:05:55,217 --> 00:05:59,377 Speaker 1: an attempt at assassination of a Republican president it falls 89 00:05:59,417 --> 00:06:03,737 Speaker 1: into this category. Unfortunately, but clearly, the FBI does not 90 00:06:03,777 --> 00:06:07,737 Speaker 1: deserve the benefit of the doubt. And so what do 91 00:06:07,777 --> 00:06:12,977 Speaker 1: we do with that? I need someone in the FBI 92 00:06:13,097 --> 00:06:16,137 Speaker 1: to confirm whether are these accounts that have come forward 93 00:06:16,177 --> 00:06:20,217 Speaker 1: now authentic? And was this known by the FBI? Did 94 00:06:20,217 --> 00:06:23,897 Speaker 1: they not share it publicly because they believe that it 95 00:06:24,017 --> 00:06:28,817 Speaker 1: was not verifiable? On what basis? Did the FBI not 96 00:06:29,257 --> 00:06:33,297 Speaker 1: produce this previously? Why did it have to come from 97 00:06:33,337 --> 00:06:36,417 Speaker 1: Tucker Carlson, Moranda Devine? These are the question I need 98 00:06:36,457 --> 00:06:39,857 Speaker 1: answers to these questions. I'm trying to get them. We 99 00:06:39,897 --> 00:06:42,737 Speaker 1: had Director Patel scheduled for the radio show and he 100 00:06:44,097 --> 00:06:46,537 Speaker 1: has pushed it back. He has just moved it. He 101 00:06:46,577 --> 00:06:50,017 Speaker 1: has not canceled it. So I will ask him these questions. 102 00:06:50,057 --> 00:06:52,217 Speaker 1: But we need answers to this, and I plan to 103 00:06:52,417 --> 00:06:55,777 Speaker 1: continue to chase this down and get these answers.

And now let's 122 00:07:51,417 --> 00:07:54,177 Speaker 1: talk about where we are on the Epstein. On the 123 00:07:54,177 --> 00:07:59,977 Speaker 1: Epstein case here the Transparency Act. So we had four 124 00:08:00,057 --> 00:08:02,657 Speaker 1: hundred and twenty seven to one. I think it was 125 00:08:03,657 --> 00:08:10,257 Speaker 1: in the voting on in the House on Epstein. So yeah, 126 00:08:10,257 --> 00:08:12,017 Speaker 1: that's right, four hundred and twenty seven to one. I'm 127 00:08:12,097 --> 00:08:17,497 Speaker 1: kind of curious why who the the one vote here? 128 00:08:17,537 --> 00:08:21,057 Speaker 1: This guy Higgins, Like, what was that all about? But okay, whatever, 129 00:08:21,737 --> 00:08:23,537 Speaker 1: So four hundred and twenty seven to one. It has 130 00:08:23,577 --> 00:08:28,137 Speaker 1: come out that this is the situation. Uh, they're going 131 00:08:28,177 --> 00:08:31,737 Speaker 1: to now take it to the Senate and we'll see. 132 00:08:31,817 --> 00:08:33,897 Speaker 1: I don't believe that anyone in the United States. Oh 133 00:08:33,897 --> 00:08:36,097 Speaker 1: I shouldn't say anyone. I think the United States Senate 134 00:08:36,217 --> 00:08:37,857 Speaker 1: is going to pass this. They may have passed it 135 00:08:37,857 --> 00:08:39,857 Speaker 1: by the time you're listening to this, because there's a 136 00:08:40,017 --> 00:08:44,537 Speaker 1: I'm talking right now Tuesday evening post radio show, and 137 00:08:44,577 --> 00:08:47,577 Speaker 1: it is possible the Senate will even vote on it 138 00:08:47,577 --> 00:08:50,577 Speaker 1: at night just to get this done. Then we'll go 139 00:08:50,577 --> 00:08:53,777 Speaker 1: to the President's desk. President Trump says he will make 140 00:08:53,817 --> 00:08:58,737 Speaker 1: it public and I want to share where my feelings 141 00:08:58,737 --> 00:09:01,377 Speaker 1: on this, which I think have been pretty clear on radio. 142 00:09:01,417 --> 00:09:03,537 Speaker 1: But I'll take some time with it on podcast here. 143 00:09:06,257 --> 00:09:08,137 Speaker 1: I don't think there's a bombshell that's going to come 144 00:09:08,137 --> 00:09:13,017 Speaker 1: forward out of this. I think it will further dirty 145 00:09:13,137 --> 00:09:16,017 Speaker 1: up the reputations of primarily a bunch of Democrats and 146 00:09:16,057 --> 00:09:22,097 Speaker 1: big Democrat donors. But without any smoking gun anything, it'll 147 00:09:22,177 --> 00:09:26,417 Speaker 1: just be people who were talking to Epstein, people who 148 00:09:26,497 --> 00:09:34,937 Speaker 1: were you know, people who were in his orbit. Now 149 00:09:35,217 --> 00:09:37,217 Speaker 1: you can say that's bad judgment, It certainly is. You 150 00:09:37,217 --> 00:09:39,777 Speaker 1: can say that's gross, and it certainly is, but that's 151 00:09:39,897 --> 00:09:44,057 Speaker 1: not being a pedophile. It's not child trafficking or human trafficking. 152 00:09:44,577 --> 00:09:47,897 Speaker 1: That's just knowing a guy with a lot of money 153 00:09:47,897 --> 00:09:49,657 Speaker 1: and a lot of connections that you should have known 154 00:09:49,777 --> 00:09:52,857 Speaker 1: was gross. And you know, now, are some of those 155 00:09:52,857 --> 00:09:57,897 Speaker 1: people worse than that? Of course there's that possibility, But 156 00:09:59,537 --> 00:10:01,657 Speaker 1: I keep saying this, and I know that it's frustrating 157 00:10:01,697 --> 00:10:03,617 Speaker 1: sometimes for people to hear this, but it's a very 158 00:10:03,617 --> 00:10:06,737 Speaker 1: important principle. You better be damn sure if you're going 159 00:10:06,817 --> 00:10:10,577 Speaker 1: to accuse somebody of the kind of sex r and 160 00:10:10,617 --> 00:10:14,777 Speaker 1: things that Epstein was involved in that he was doing, right, 161 00:10:15,737 --> 00:10:18,097 Speaker 1: you can ruin somebody's life with that. And I know 162 00:10:18,137 --> 00:10:20,297 Speaker 1: that there's this oh, there's this hunger for justice right 163 00:10:20,337 --> 00:10:24,057 Speaker 1: now for the victims, and I share that desire, But 164 00:10:24,137 --> 00:10:29,097 Speaker 1: there's no justice for a victim by ensnaring somebody in 165 00:10:29,137 --> 00:10:33,497 Speaker 1: this just by insinuation who didn't actually do anything illegal, 166 00:10:34,257 --> 00:10:38,497 Speaker 1: who maybe was just around. And I get it right, 167 00:10:38,577 --> 00:10:41,777 Speaker 1: that's that makes this whole thing more complicated, but it's 168 00:10:42,017 --> 00:10:49,737 Speaker 1: very important, it's very important. That's I think where this 169 00:10:49,817 --> 00:10:52,457 Speaker 1: may become may become very challenging because some of the 170 00:10:52,537 --> 00:10:55,297 Speaker 1: names that I think are likely to come forward again, 171 00:10:55,497 --> 00:10:58,857 Speaker 1: even absent any evidence of criminality, any evidence I'm not 172 00:10:58,897 --> 00:11:03,377 Speaker 1: even saying clear proof, but even evidence of criminality on 173 00:11:03,497 --> 00:11:07,537 Speaker 1: the part of a non Epstein, non Geelen Maxwell associate, right, 174 00:11:07,697 --> 00:11:10,657 Speaker 1: we already know they're criminal. Well, Epstin killed, we know 175 00:11:10,697 --> 00:11:13,057 Speaker 1: that he was guilty, We know that Giln Maxwell is 176 00:11:13,057 --> 00:11:16,977 Speaker 1: serving a long prison sentence. But for anybody else, we 177 00:11:17,137 --> 00:11:21,457 Speaker 1: have to see what it is that's out there. And 178 00:11:22,417 --> 00:11:24,697 Speaker 1: there's a presumption of innocence as a legal principle, but 179 00:11:24,697 --> 00:11:27,817 Speaker 1: there should also be the presumption of innocence as a 180 00:11:27,817 --> 00:11:32,617 Speaker 1: as a general principle as well, which I know can 181 00:11:32,657 --> 00:11:35,017 Speaker 1: get a little get a little hazy. People say, what 182 00:11:35,017 --> 00:11:36,857 Speaker 1: about al Capone was he a mobster or was he 183 00:11:36,977 --> 00:11:40,057 Speaker 1: just evading his taxes? Okay, I understand, right, there's a 184 00:11:40,097 --> 00:11:45,257 Speaker 1: reasonableness that you have to bring to this. But you 185 00:11:45,297 --> 00:11:47,057 Speaker 1: know this, we start to ask the question, are people 186 00:11:47,057 --> 00:11:49,537 Speaker 1: going to start accusing anybody who was on the plane. 187 00:11:50,577 --> 00:11:52,297 Speaker 1: There are a lot of people on that plane. People 188 00:11:52,337 --> 00:11:54,257 Speaker 1: going to start accusing anybody who went to the island. Well, 189 00:11:54,297 --> 00:11:55,497 Speaker 1: of course there are people went to the island and 190 00:11:55,497 --> 00:11:57,057 Speaker 1: people who were on the plane who didn't do anything, 191 00:11:57,097 --> 00:12:00,497 Speaker 1: So that would be wrong. Right. We gotta figure out 192 00:12:00,657 --> 00:12:06,177 Speaker 1: we have to know who did what. And the mass 193 00:12:06,257 --> 00:12:08,617 Speaker 1: release of these files I think is going to turn 194 00:12:08,617 --> 00:12:13,617 Speaker 1: into a lot of finger pointing out insinuation without any proof. 195 00:12:13,697 --> 00:12:14,977 Speaker 1: And I do not believe that any of this is 196 00:12:15,017 --> 00:12:16,537 Speaker 1: going to dirty of Donald Trump. By the way, I 197 00:12:16,577 --> 00:12:18,817 Speaker 1: think all that stuff is nonsense. I'm seeing some people, 198 00:12:19,017 --> 00:12:22,697 Speaker 1: like some New York Times report or some left wing 199 00:12:22,817 --> 00:12:27,057 Speaker 1: podcaster saying this is the end of Trump is delusional, delusional, 200 00:12:27,337 --> 00:12:33,537 Speaker 1: wish casting and delusional Trump. You know, I've known Trump, 201 00:12:33,537 --> 00:12:35,257 Speaker 1: and I've read so much about Trump, and I've talked 202 00:12:35,297 --> 00:12:39,097 Speaker 1: to Trump so much. He he is not involved in 203 00:12:39,137 --> 00:12:41,497 Speaker 1: any of this stuff at all, And if he was, 204 00:12:41,577 --> 00:12:46,097 Speaker 1: we would know, so that's I think something else. But 205 00:12:46,217 --> 00:12:48,217 Speaker 1: then why are the Democrats pushing this? That's what I'll 206 00:12:48,217 --> 00:12:51,537 Speaker 1: get to next.

But this Hillsdale course will focus on the 214 00:13:12,777 --> 00:13:15,737 Speaker 1: forging of the American character that made that revolution possible. 215 00:13:16,337 --> 00:13:20,377 Speaker 1: It's so cool.

Now, why 221 00:13:37,937 --> 00:13:40,097 Speaker 1: are the Democrats pushing this all of a sudden? I mean, 222 00:13:40,137 --> 00:13:45,297 Speaker 1: they had the United States Executive Branch and Congress in 223 00:13:45,337 --> 00:13:47,897 Speaker 1: their control for four years under Biden. Why didn't they 224 00:13:48,697 --> 00:13:53,137 Speaker 1: do anything about this until now. Well, there's just a 225 00:13:53,177 --> 00:13:55,777 Speaker 1: lot of a lot of posturing around this. There's I 226 00:13:55,777 --> 00:13:59,137 Speaker 1: think a lot of efforts underway for people to one 227 00:13:59,697 --> 00:14:02,257 Speaker 1: find any excuse to use this as a way to 228 00:14:02,297 --> 00:14:06,417 Speaker 1: attack Donald Trump. That's for sure. They're gonna do everything 229 00:14:06,457 --> 00:14:10,257 Speaker 1: they can to pretend even if it's not in there 230 00:14:10,257 --> 00:14:15,017 Speaker 1: some evidence against Trump it's nonsense. And they also, I think, 231 00:14:15,097 --> 00:14:17,737 Speaker 1: want to control the narrative and direct. Democrats want to 232 00:14:17,777 --> 00:14:19,657 Speaker 1: direct away from what Trump has been saying for the 233 00:14:19,737 --> 00:14:21,897 Speaker 1: last couple of days, not that he hasn't said it before, 234 00:14:22,657 --> 00:14:25,217 Speaker 1: which is that it's Democrats who are neck deep in 235 00:14:25,257 --> 00:14:28,577 Speaker 1: all the Epstein stuff. I mean, at least in terms 236 00:14:28,617 --> 00:14:30,777 Speaker 1: of being around him, spend a lot of time with him, 237 00:14:31,457 --> 00:14:33,737 Speaker 1: dozens of flights on the plane, People like Bill Clinton. 238 00:14:34,257 --> 00:14:38,617 Speaker 1: It's Democrats who were super cozy with Epstein. Trump is 239 00:14:38,657 --> 00:14:40,857 Speaker 1: the one who actually said he's a creep and kicked 240 00:14:40,897 --> 00:14:43,897 Speaker 1: him out of his club. Was there any Democrat who 241 00:14:43,897 --> 00:14:45,577 Speaker 1: ever said, oh, you know, I was spending a lot 242 00:14:45,577 --> 00:14:47,657 Speaker 1: of time with that guy, but then I decided he 243 00:14:47,697 --> 00:14:52,737 Speaker 1: was too creepy. Bill Gates, Reid Hoffman, Bill Clinton, These 244 00:14:52,737 --> 00:14:54,497 Speaker 1: guys spend a lot of time with Epstein. And now 245 00:14:54,497 --> 00:14:58,977 Speaker 1: we've see Larry Summers, who worked under the Clinton and 246 00:14:59,257 --> 00:15:03,337 Speaker 1: Obama administrations as like Treasury secretary or undersecretary and all 247 00:15:03,377 --> 00:15:07,977 Speaker 1: this stuff. And he's asking Epstein for help trying to 248 00:15:08,017 --> 00:15:10,857 Speaker 1: figure out how to sleep with some of a senior 249 00:15:10,897 --> 00:15:13,697 Speaker 1: CCP Chinese Communist Party official guys. But by the way, 250 00:15:14,017 --> 00:15:17,617 Speaker 1: he was married too. The whole thing is so gross. 251 00:15:17,617 --> 00:15:18,897 Speaker 1: And now I was saying, he's going to keep teaching 252 00:15:18,897 --> 00:15:21,497 Speaker 1: at Harvard, but he's stepping away from public life. These 253 00:15:21,497 --> 00:15:25,897 Speaker 1: are all Democrats. I just it's amazing how they're so 254 00:15:26,057 --> 00:15:28,817 Speaker 1: desperate to try to make this about Trump. By the way, 255 00:15:28,817 --> 00:15:31,257 Speaker 1: there's no other Republicans you ever hear about in Epstein's 256 00:15:31,337 --> 00:15:36,177 Speaker 1: orbit whatsoever. Right, somehow there's all these prominent Democrats who 257 00:15:36,257 --> 00:15:39,457 Speaker 1: were really cozy, really friendly with him, spending a lot 258 00:15:39,497 --> 00:15:42,497 Speaker 1: of time with him. But you don't have any Republicans. 259 00:15:42,697 --> 00:15:46,977 Speaker 1: H I don't know. Almost like one party is much 260 00:15:47,017 --> 00:15:52,937 Speaker 1: more likely to have people who are morally deformed than 261 00:15:52,977 --> 00:15:55,737 Speaker 1: the other. Not that there aren't crazy and bad Republicans 262 00:15:55,777 --> 00:16:00,177 Speaker 1: there are, But if you're morally deformed, chances are your 263 00:16:00,217 --> 00:16:02,897 Speaker 1: Democrat I can get you in trouble. But it's true. 264 00:16:02,977 --> 00:16:04,257 Speaker 1: I mean, you can get in trouble for saying that, 265 00:16:04,297 --> 00:16:08,297 Speaker 1: but we all know it's true, and we'll continue to 266 00:16:08,297 --> 00:16:11,657 Speaker 1: follow the story closely. I will, by the way, if 267 00:16:11,657 --> 00:16:14,817 Speaker 1: I'm wrong and there's some huge, smoking gun evidence in 268 00:16:14,817 --> 00:16:16,937 Speaker 1: the Epstein files, I'll say, man, I missed that. By 269 00:16:17,017 --> 00:16:18,577 Speaker 1: my I'm so glad we know about this, and we'll 270 00:16:18,617 --> 00:16:21,177 Speaker 1: deal with that when it comes along. How many of 271 00:16:21,257 --> 00:16:24,377 Speaker 1: you think I'm wrong on this? Think about that for 272 00:16:24,457 --> 00:16:27,697 Speaker 1: a second. How often have I led you astray with 273 00:16:27,817 --> 00:16:29,737 Speaker 1: these with this kind of This isn't just a prediction, 274 00:16:29,777 --> 00:16:31,897 Speaker 1: this is analysis. How often I've led you astray with 275 00:16:31,977 --> 00:16:35,937 Speaker 1: this kind of analysis almost never. So just remember that 276 00:16:36,937 --> 00:16:39,577 Speaker 1: our sponsor is Paradigm Press.
