Now answer this question. Now, Remember, 31 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 1: in spite of what he's saying, and in spite of 32 00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:38,319 Speaker 1: what your idiots and the media are saying, Oh, we've 33 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 1: actually taken the time to go and look at c 34 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:44,120 Speaker 1: I a protocol. And if somebody is to retain would 35 00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 1: like to retain their security clearance, they must act in 36 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: a manner that is consistent with how a current CIA 37 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:57,600 Speaker 1: employee would act. Now is John Brennan, with all of 38 00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 1: his inflammatory rhetoric, uh, in any way acting like any 39 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 1: CIA employee that you know. No, does he deserve to 40 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:11,359 Speaker 1: lose his clearance? Yes? Should he really be asking how 41 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:14,160 Speaker 1: he ever got a clearance in the first place? Yeah, 42 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 1: I think that's a probably a really good question. And 43 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 1: how is it if you want to just look at, 44 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 1: you know, the deep state and what a lot of 45 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 1: what we have exposed has been proven true to all 46 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 1: of you. We've got James Comey fired, McCabe fired. That's 47 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 1: the director and the deputy director of the Federal Bureau 48 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 1: of Investigation. Again, I'm not I'm not talking. Don't rank 49 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:44,760 Speaker 1: really rank and file guys. None of them are gone. 50 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 1: Now that's the interesting part of this, And what they 51 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 1: tell me privately is is minded me they want to 52 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 1: get to the bottom of all this more than anybody. 53 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 1: Then you can add to departures, Peter Struck fired, Lisa 54 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 1: pay resigned, James Ribeki resigned, James Baker resigned, and there 55 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,639 Speaker 1: are others. But all told, then when you look at FBI, 56 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 1: either firings, uh departures or demotions, I can name twenty 57 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:21,360 Speaker 1: five top officials. This because the evidence is overwhelming and 58 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 1: it's incontrovertible. You know, look at the d O. J. 59 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 1: Sally Yates fired bruce Or, Deputy Associate Deputy Attorney General, 60 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 1: fourth in line, fourth highest ranking official the d o J. 61 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 1: He's demoted twice, and the President rightly will bruce Or, 62 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 1: whose family received big money for helping create the phony, dirty, 63 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 1: discredited Russian dossier ever be fired from the Jeff Sessions 64 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 1: Justice Department, and Trump rightly writes a total joke. It's 65 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 1: not a joke. That's the problem. The problem is it's corruption. 66 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 1: There's enough evidence here at this point with what we 67 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 1: point it out last week and the correspondence with Christopher Steele, 68 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,840 Speaker 1: both before and after the election, Before and after the 69 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 1: firings of Christopher Steele, before Steele testified that he wouldn't 70 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 1: even stand by his own dossie, they were still pushing 71 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 1: this bony thing and and using it a to stop 72 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 1: Trump from getting elected, be to hurt the incoming administration, 73 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,599 Speaker 1: and see really just to take him down, and they 74 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: were they were conspiring to do so. We've got the emails. 75 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:33,039 Speaker 1: Why do you think that Christopher Steele was so afraid 76 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:36,119 Speaker 1: of quote and this is from last week being exposed 77 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 1: and hoping the firewalls hold up that he was discussing 78 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,840 Speaker 1: we got twenty five high ranking FBI and d o 79 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 1: J departures, firings to motions. It's all happening. And one 80 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:50,839 Speaker 1: of the big things that people are saying, well, what 81 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 1: about brennanan Well, frankly, anybody that's fired ought to lose 82 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,720 Speaker 1: their security clearance. And you're saying, well, Hannity, why would 83 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 1: you do that? What if we ever need them, Well, 84 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:04,040 Speaker 1: we could always reinstate it. Number one, But number two, 85 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,919 Speaker 1: I don't think this president is ever going to ever 86 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 1: want the advice of John Brennan, James Comey, Andrew McCabe 87 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 1: or Peter Struck or Sally Yates. Let's be honest here. 88 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 1: And it's and and the idea that this has happened 89 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,160 Speaker 1: before but was never reported on is also a big 90 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 1: issue now. One of there was a great exchange on 91 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 1: fake news CNN. I know it sounds like a contradiction. 92 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:33,839 Speaker 1: It was a great exchange because I never saw anybody 93 00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 1: this is Look, I've watched this guy just it's just 94 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 1: angry anti Trumper Phil mud And anyway, there's a guy 95 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:44,600 Speaker 1: by the name of Paris Denard. We should get him 96 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:46,280 Speaker 1: on the radio program. I don't know, I guess he 97 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:49,719 Speaker 1: has he worked for CNN fake news. I mean he 98 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 1: tore this guy apart, not once, not twice, not three times. 99 00:05:55,160 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 1: He points out that in the private sector that having 100 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:04,719 Speaker 1: a security clearance is worth a lot of money, and 101 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 1: he directly asked fil Mud about it, and film at 102 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 1: three separate times turns it into I've never ever indignant, outraged, 103 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 1: I've never used this for any governmental contract. And he 104 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 1: keeps saying, I didn't ask you about a government contract. 105 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 1: Now I don't know anything about what film Mud does 106 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 1: or doesn't do. If he has a consulting from it's 107 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 1: neither here nor there. But if you want to talk 108 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 1: about this show being ahead of the curve, well remember 109 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 1: last week we took time out of our busy schedule 110 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 1: to tell you about a pretty important book. And it's 111 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 1: called Compromised. And this is put out by the Government 112 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 1: Accountability Institute. They're the same people, Peter Schweitzer's group that 113 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 1: were involved in exposing so much about the Clintons, so 114 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,719 Speaker 1: much about what we then built on as it worked 115 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:54,400 Speaker 1: for uranium one. You know, imagine this. We actually we 116 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:58,039 Speaker 1: actually got to the eyewitness and the FBI that was 117 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:05,880 Speaker 1: inside Putin's networking side the United States bribing, extorting, money laundering, racketeering, 118 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 1: all of that, and the informant saw it and reported 119 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 1: on it. Who was the FBI director at the time, 120 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 1: Robert Mueller. And in the meantime, all those crimes were 121 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: being committed, the FBI is being told about it, and 122 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 1: yet they're continued to allow to operate inside the United 123 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 1: States and they're successful. The whole purpose was to get there, 124 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 1: you know, for Putent's thugs in the United States, to 125 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 1: get their greedy hands on America's uranium, so that which 126 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 1: is the foundational material for nuclear weapons. And we're told 127 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:43,120 Speaker 1: but none of it ever left the country. Well that 128 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 1: turned out to be a total croc also because that 129 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 1: wasn't true. But what Paris den Hard is saying in 130 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 1: this debate, I'm gonna play it here, and i want 131 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 1: you to keep one thing in mind is that security 132 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 1: clearances are worth money. And by the way, and I'm 133 00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 1: not necessarily against it. You know, you build up a 134 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 1: certain amount of sacrifice your government. You work for the government. 135 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 1: There's literally for many people, they make a lot more 136 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 1: in the in the private sector. For me, these the 137 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 1: numbers sound pretty outrageous to me. But I'm not against 138 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 1: the idea of people getting outside of government using their professionalism, 139 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 1: the experience they have garnered to get into the private 140 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 1: sector and make money. I'm a capitalist. But we do 141 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:31,080 Speaker 1: know that James Comey's net worth, according to Compromise this book, 142 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 1: How Money and Politics Drive FBI Corruption, that his networth 143 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 1: skyrocketed four thousand percent between leaving the d J and 144 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 1: two thousand and five and returning in two thousand and thirteen. 145 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:45,559 Speaker 1: One thing that caught my eyes in this and we 146 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,360 Speaker 1: discussed it last week. Again we're ahead of the curb 147 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: because now are these security clearances worth something? Yeah? And 148 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:56,199 Speaker 1: call Me made six point one million dollars after Muller's 149 00:08:56,240 --> 00:09:00,320 Speaker 1: FBI granted Comey's employer, In other words, that the ones 150 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:05,079 Speaker 1: paying him Lockheed Martin, largest contractor in history, a billion 151 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 1: dollar boondoggle, and under Muller's direction, the FBI granted multiple 152 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,840 Speaker 1: spy contracts to Lockheed Martin while call Me advised them 153 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:16,840 Speaker 1: on the legality of the operations. Call Me also, according 154 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 1: to the book, got another six million dollars working for 155 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 1: one of the world's largest hedge funds, and an additional 156 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 1: five thousand dollars for a quote unused vacation time, and 157 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:30,680 Speaker 1: then it goes into Muller. You know, he cashed in 158 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 1: as well. And in twenty thirteen, when Comey took over 159 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:36,960 Speaker 1: the FBI, on Mueller left to start a consulting firm 160 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 1: made more than three and a half million dollars a 161 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:43,680 Speaker 1: year and giving speeches representing clients who had previously UH 162 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 1: enriched as FBI director. Look, and I'm not saying there's 163 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:50,160 Speaker 1: anything wrong with it. This revolving door and government is 164 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 1: what it is. I don't like it, just generally if 165 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 1: the stench goes to high heaven. But the fact that 166 00:09:56,920 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 1: we keep getting intertwined between these two and others is 167 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,720 Speaker 1: beyond the coincidence to me and troubling in light of 168 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 1: where we now are with the deep state. But just listen, 169 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:12,960 Speaker 1: this is this guy, Paris de nard Is is right 170 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:14,760 Speaker 1: by the way. I didn't watch Fake Newcy and then 171 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 1: I saw it on mediaite. I was reading, you know 172 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:21,320 Speaker 1: this media it's one of these websites that chronicles, you know, 173 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:25,080 Speaker 1: all the all the intramural fights and moments on cable news, 174 00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 1: which then they do a good job. Anyway, here's the exchange. 175 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 1: A lot of these people that have these security clearances 176 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 1: and this is the secret and and the swampy Washton 177 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 1: d C. They have them and they keep them because 178 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:39,320 Speaker 1: it's profitable for them after they leave government. Because if 179 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 1: you have a security clearance, especially high level security clearances, 180 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:45,079 Speaker 1: your contracts and your consulting gift pay you a lot 181 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:47,240 Speaker 1: more money because of the access that you have. I 182 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 1: hope the President continues to do this, and I hope 183 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 1: he adds i'm Rosa to the list because if she 184 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 1: has a clearance, she too, because of her actions, should 185 00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 1: have it revoked. Well, I don't know if I put 186 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 1: m Rossa in the same category of people signed those 187 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:02,199 Speaker 1: letters but filmed. I imagine you want to react profitable Paris. 188 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:06,079 Speaker 1: When I am requested to sit on an advisor board, 189 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 1: let me ask you one question. How much do you 190 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:11,079 Speaker 1: think I'm paid to do that? At the requestion to 191 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 1: the US with the request of the government, and you 192 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 1: got ten seconds? How much I'll give I'll ask you 193 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 1: a question. How much are you paid for your answer 194 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: the question? And gig for for being a for They 195 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 1: have no contracts with the U. S Government that pay more. 196 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 1: I'm not talking here, and this is the thing I'm 197 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 1: not talking about Zerial that's beyond this. I'm not talking 198 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 1: about your role with the federal government. I'm talking about 199 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 1: that insultant and a contractor, the consulting firms that they 200 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 1: form and that you all get is because you get 201 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 1: more money when having a consultant before having the security 202 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 1: class like that doesn't happen. I have zero consulting relationship 203 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,240 Speaker 1: to with the US government. Zero. I'm not talking field. 204 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 1: That's a good talking point. I'm not talking about relationship 205 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:56,960 Speaker 1: with the government. I'm talking about in the private sector. 206 00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 1: When you have a security fans and you keep the 207 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:03,200 Speaker 1: relationships with the private sector that involved my security clearance zero. 208 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 1: I get zero dollars from consulting companies that deal with 209 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,840 Speaker 1: US government. Are we clear? Well, I will be clear 210 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 1: and saying that everybody in Washington, d c. Knows. If 211 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:15,559 Speaker 1: you don't want to be honest about it, that's on you, alright. 212 00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 1: So the point is that maybe filled Mont doesn't, but 213 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 1: certainly this book compromises pointing out that Comey does, and 214 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:26,600 Speaker 1: that all these other people, because of their background, experience, 215 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:31,239 Speaker 1: and yes, their security clearance. Yeah, they've all they've all benefited. 216 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 1: I gotta so I think that that was a great 217 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:38,560 Speaker 1: that nobody else is picked up on this. This book 218 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:44,240 Speaker 1: is really full of yeah, follow the money type of information. Now, 219 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 1: I guess if these guys were friends with Donald Trump, 220 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,480 Speaker 1: that they probably could expect Robert Mueller to be knocking 221 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:52,480 Speaker 1: on their door and asking a bunch of questions. And 222 00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 1: if they paid taxes on it. And in two thousand 223 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:59,840 Speaker 1: and five, by the way, we still have no verdict 224 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:03,880 Speaker 1: in the Mullard and the Mantaphor case. Third straight day 225 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:07,840 Speaker 1: of deliberations. Linda and I disagree on this point. I 226 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:11,080 Speaker 1: think I think that they only asked what, no, no, 227 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:13,120 Speaker 1: you know what, you're right, say that it's for Pette 228 00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 1: thought I didn't hear it is every Do you want 229 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 1: to hear the breaking news sounder? Jason, Yeah, And I think, no, 230 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:19,520 Speaker 1: we don't need the breaking news sounder. Just say it again. 231 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 1: I'm always right, go ahead. Lynda McLaughlan is admitting that 232 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:26,559 Speaker 1: Sean Hannity on his own show is right. Well, no, 233 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:29,439 Speaker 1: because I said, because you had said to me Friday, Linda, 234 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:31,960 Speaker 1: I will put this out ahead of time. You said 235 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 1: that you thought, no way man off, it's going to 236 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 1: get a conviction, and I said, the odds are against him. 237 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 1: If there's there's six women and they're six men. And 238 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 1: if they're gonna be honest, and they're literally just looking 239 00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 1: at the evidence, which I know it's hard to put 240 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 1: a side personal bias, he's gonna walk. The only thing 241 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:55,080 Speaker 1: we didn't see is the follow the money charts. That's 242 00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:58,120 Speaker 1: the only then, by the way, that that's a key 243 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:01,200 Speaker 1: part of this. And you were also right that they 244 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:03,160 Speaker 1: only asked this a good day for you. It's very 245 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:06,200 Speaker 1: good Monday. They only asked ones for that. Yeah, the 246 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 1: questions that they asked was about reasonable doubt which happened 247 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:14,840 Speaker 1: on day so far off deliberations and they may go 248 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,120 Speaker 1: into the night tonight if they think their vacation on 249 00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,760 Speaker 1: the financial interests into farm bank accounts.

This is when the president, I guess that 278 00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:01,960 Speaker 1: is original lawyers Ty Cobb and and John Dowd. I 279 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,960 Speaker 1: don't know why would they have ever waived attorney client 280 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 1: privilege and by the way, only the president can wave it, 281 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 1: not as lawyers. And they decided to hand over. They 282 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 1: wanted to be cooperative with Mueller a lot of and 283 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:16,840 Speaker 1: I know there was talk, oh, it's all gonna be 284 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:21,600 Speaker 1: over by Thanksgiving of last year. Now we'll be lucky 285 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 1: if it's over by Thanksgiving. It this year, then it 286 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 1: was gonna be over by Christmas, then right after the 287 00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:29,680 Speaker 1: New year, then March, then May, and here we are. 288 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:36,119 Speaker 1: But the fact that in the article, I mean ethically, 289 00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 1: I just cannot understand, you know, this is this is 290 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:43,160 Speaker 1: not only the office of the President, but it is 291 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:47,840 Speaker 1: the President's Council, and um, why that would ever be 292 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 1: waived is it's unimaginable to me. And that, you know, 293 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:58,640 Speaker 1: McCann goes on to give thirty hours of testimony to 294 00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 1: Robert Muller and his team out there is another sign 295 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 1: of this that maybe strategically, maybe they're smarter than I am, 296 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 1: because that has never happened before. And you know, maybe 297 00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 1: maybe that's the interview that they got. They don't get 298 00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:16,280 Speaker 1: the president, they got his lawyer because the only reason 299 00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 1: at this point that I could ever see Mueller wanting 300 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 1: the president and is to find well, what are your 301 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,920 Speaker 1: thoughts on firing? It doesn't matter what his thoughts are. 302 00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:29,920 Speaker 1: If he got a full accounting from the president's attorney, 303 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 1: well that's gotta be the president's accounting. And by the way, 304 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:36,840 Speaker 1: if if they're bringing them in because they set a 305 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 1: perjury trap, well what you said is different than what 306 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:42,960 Speaker 1: you're a lawyer said. Well, this is what Rudy was saying. 307 00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:45,679 Speaker 1: It'll be the special counsel. If there are two versions 308 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 1: of events, they will decide which one they think is 309 00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 1: the truth. That's what Rudy was saying to the top 310 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:57,160 Speaker 1: of the hour. Remember FBI departures, call me fired, McCabe fired, 311 00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 1: Struck fired, Page demoted, sign Rebecki resigned, Baker resigned. In total, 312 00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:07,440 Speaker 1: then you've got the DOJ departure, Sally Yates fired or 313 00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 1: demoted twice, and so many other high profile people in 314 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 1: total that are now out. And then yeah, this guy 315 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:20,440 Speaker 1: Paris ton Art is right that, yeah, there is there 316 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:24,440 Speaker 1: is a value on the open market as it relates 317 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 1: to the marketability of a security clearance, because you know, 318 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 1: that's the only way that James Comey can represent or 319 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:35,359 Speaker 1: be a part of a group that represents Lockheed Martin 320 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:40,280 Speaker 1: and can go to to Muller and and offer his 321 00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:44,680 Speaker 1: recommendations about, you know, how to look at the legality 322 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:49,200 Speaker 1: of bidding for you know, contracts with the government as 323 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:52,680 Speaker 1: it relates to what the FBI is spending on spy material, etcetera. 324 00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 1: And I'm not saying does any necessarily anything the farious 325 00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:59,880 Speaker 1: in it, but there is a revolving door issue here. 326 00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 1: And you know, if you're fired, why wouldn't you lose 327 00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:07,160 Speaker 1: your security clearance? I, for the life of me don't understand, 328 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:12,240 Speaker 1: except unless the thinking of Cobb, Thie Cobb, and John 329 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:15,200 Speaker 1: Dowd were that, Okay, if we give you one point 330 00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:19,640 Speaker 1: four million documents and we also allow the White House 331 00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:23,040 Speaker 1: Council to speak to you for thirty hours, then that 332 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 1: basically he's speaking for the president because he's the president's attorney. 333 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:31,159 Speaker 1: I just but for me, ethnically, it's problematic, well beyond 334 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 1: a privilege issue now, and I don't see why anybody 335 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:38,359 Speaker 1: would waive that privilege. And if you go back and 336 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:41,159 Speaker 1: passed instances, I mean that would never have happened with 337 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:46,679 Speaker 1: Clinton lawyers, and um, you know McGann literally has his 338 00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:49,960 Speaker 1: loyalty to act in his client's best interest at all times. 339 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 1: So why they would waive this privilege. I don't know 340 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:57,119 Speaker 1: the president in his official capacity as his client. And 341 00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:00,399 Speaker 1: according to the article, mccannon his own lawyer, and his 342 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:03,360 Speaker 1: lawyers suspected, well, maybe they were making him the fall guy, 343 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 1: and they devised their own strategy that was in the 344 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 1: best interest of Don McGann. At least, if you believe 345 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:12,800 Speaker 1: the New York Times, Mueller probably was, you know, barred 346 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:16,560 Speaker 1: from eliciting or receiving this information from McGann. And as 347 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:19,120 Speaker 1: well as knowing McGann was the president's lawyer. I mean, 348 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 1: there actually is an a B, A formal opinion my 349 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:25,160 Speaker 1: friend David Shoone sent me over the weekend that probably 350 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:28,679 Speaker 1: applies right onto this and would have prohibited McGann and 351 00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:32,520 Speaker 1: Muller from ever engaging in this conduct. And then it 352 00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 1: raises questions about what did Don McGann say. But if 353 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 1: it's used to say, well, you talk to the president's attorney. 354 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 1: We gave you one point four million documents. This is 355 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 1: look at the team. It's there's no evidence of any 356 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 1: Russia collusion. And if you're trying to create a perjury 357 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 1: trap for the president. Basically, if he says one thing 358 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:55,119 Speaker 1: that contradicts what Don McGann does, says, well, who's the 359 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 1: one that decides which version is correct? And this is 360 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:00,800 Speaker 1: where Rudy got into a little bit of maybe it 361 00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 1: was inarticulate, but inarticulate in the sense that it was 362 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:07,879 Speaker 1: very legalistic what he was saying. He actually used the 363 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:11,119 Speaker 1: phrase truth isn't the truth. What he was saying is, 364 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 1: you have two versions of testimony that will be given 365 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 1: to the special counsel on say, any given issue. Who 366 00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 1: decides what version is right or what version is truth? 367 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:26,119 Speaker 1: And what version is it? It would be the special 368 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 1: counsel would make that decision if there was a conflict, 369 00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 1: and so you know his years as a prosecutor. That 370 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 1: was what Rudy was referring to. They will be the 371 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:39,520 Speaker 1: ones that decide who they decided to believe it. But 372 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 1: we already know that prejudice against the president. We already 373 00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:46,080 Speaker 1: know they don't like the president. It was inarticulate. I'm 374 00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 1: not gonna sit there and defended, but I think but 375 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:52,200 Speaker 1: he was speaking more legal jargon too. I guess Chucky 376 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:55,840 Speaker 1: Little Todd over there at uh Conspiracy TV. He will 377 00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 1: never be Tim Russet ever. Might have the show, but 378 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:03,640 Speaker 1: he won't be Tim Russert. It was an original, amazing man. 379 00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:07,000 Speaker 1: I loved Tim russur Um, I'm gonna have to be 380 00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:10,680 Speaker 1: rushed into having him testified, why so that he gets 381 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 1: trapped into perjury. And when you tell me he's you're 382 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:17,920 Speaker 1: testified because he's gonna tell the truth that he shouldn't worry. Well, 383 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 1: that's silly, Rudy said, because it's somebody's version of the truth, 384 00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:26,240 Speaker 1: not the truth. And in other words, truth is truth, 385 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:29,160 Speaker 1: Chuck Todd said, And he said, no, it's not. Now 386 00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:32,680 Speaker 1: Juliannie was saying, and he said, truth isn't the truth, 387 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 1: Mr Mayor, the truth is the truth. This is going 388 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,359 Speaker 1: to be, you know, bad for you. And he's like running, 389 00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:40,560 Speaker 1: And in a sense he's right. But what he's saying 390 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:43,359 Speaker 1: in this statement is very clear to me and I 391 00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:46,359 Speaker 1: think would be clear to most lawyers. What he's saying 392 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:50,439 Speaker 1: here is that, Okay, if there are conflicting versions of 393 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:54,520 Speaker 1: a story, big items, small item, it doesn't matter. If 394 00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:58,440 Speaker 1: you're under oath and you say something that conflicts with 395 00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:01,919 Speaker 1: what the lawyer said, they are going to be the 396 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:06,680 Speaker 1: ones that make the determination of who they believe and 397 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:10,400 Speaker 1: which one they believe is telling the truth. Now, maybe 398 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 1: maybe they're both wrong. Maybe it's somewhere in the middle 399 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:17,399 Speaker 1: where the actual truth lies. But I'm assuming McGann when 400 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:20,440 Speaker 1: he speaks under oath is speaking the truth, as I 401 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 1: would suspect the President would be. Um And then Julianni 402 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:28,120 Speaker 1: respond he said, you know, he said I didn't talk 403 00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 1: about Flynn with Comey. Comey says, you did talk about it, 404 00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 1: So what's the truth there? And I thought that was 405 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:37,120 Speaker 1: a pretty good comeback on Julianni part. They have two 406 00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:41,639 Speaker 1: pieces of evidence, Julianni said of Mueller's team, Trump says, well, 407 00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:45,400 Speaker 1: I didn't tell them. The other guy says he did 408 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,359 Speaker 1: say it, which is the truth. Maybe you know, because 409 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:50,320 Speaker 1: you're a genius. But that's the point is that would 410 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:54,000 Speaker 1: be the special counsel that would decide what they ascertained 411 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:57,680 Speaker 1: to be the truth. And they have a pre judgment 412 00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:00,159 Speaker 1: and a bias against Donald Trump. What they don't like 413 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:03,480 Speaker 1: what Donald Trump is doing. I mean, the President went 414 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:06,640 Speaker 1: on a tear this weekend that this is Mueller's team 415 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:10,160 Speaker 1: as a national disgrace and frankly, any team that would 416 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 1: hire Andrew Weisman as a national disgrace. How do you 417 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:16,920 Speaker 1: hire a guy with his track record? How do you 418 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:19,240 Speaker 1: hire a guy that lost nine oh in the Supreme 419 00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 1: Court that cost tens of thousands of fellow Americans their 420 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:26,960 Speaker 1: job and the Anderson accounting issue that literally put four 421 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 1: innocent people from Maryland jail for a year that was 422 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 1: overturned by the Fifth Circuit. Who loses nine hero in 423 00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:36,439 Speaker 1: the Supreme Court? Not many people, and that's part of 424 00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 1: his team. And by the way, what what does any 425 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 1: of this have to do with what Paul Maniford has 426 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:45,440 Speaker 1: been charged with? I find it fascinating. It is this 427 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:49,120 Speaker 1: now goes. You know, if they wrap up like they 428 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:51,360 Speaker 1: did on Friday at five o'clock, this will be three 429 00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:55,040 Speaker 1: full days no verdict in the Manaphort case. I'm not 430 00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:59,160 Speaker 1: I'm not reading into anything here. Let me be very clear. 431 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 1: The odds for Manafort are not good. But you have 432 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:07,960 Speaker 1: to see this for what it is, and that was 433 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 1: he was singled out for one reason is that he 434 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 1: worked for Trump. The judge in the case knew it. 435 00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:19,040 Speaker 1: The judge said, look, let's let's not kid ourselves here. 436 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:21,359 Speaker 1: We all know what this is about. You don't really 437 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:25,240 Speaker 1: care about Paul Manaforts tax issues. You're putting the screws 438 00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:29,919 Speaker 1: to him, so he sings or composes as it relates 439 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,440 Speaker 1: to Donald Trump, so you can prosecutor impeach the president. 440 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 1: Let's just be honest about what it is happening. The 441 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:38,000 Speaker 1: judge was right in this particular case. People wondering, well, 442 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:40,199 Speaker 1: why was that. Why was Judge Ellis tough on the 443 00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:45,120 Speaker 1: prosecution because he sees through this he was singled out 444 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 1: to be prosecuted for the purpose of putting the screws 445 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:53,520 Speaker 1: to him. Manafort, you know, has that I have nothing 446 00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:55,920 Speaker 1: to say about what you're looking for. He worked for 447 00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:59,320 Speaker 1: the president like a hundred days, and so they brought 448 00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:02,960 Speaker 1: up this old tax and loan issued case or whatever. 449 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:06,320 Speaker 1: So that's what you know. This is that this isn't justice. 450 00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:09,919 Speaker 1: And meanwhile, it has nothing to do with Russia, nothing 451 00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:14,000 Speaker 1: nothing to do with collusion, It has nothing to do 452 00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:16,679 Speaker 1: with Donald Trump, it has nothing to do with the 453 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:20,359 Speaker 1: campaign in the election. So then you must ask yourself. Remember, 454 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:22,840 Speaker 1: the judge made a big deal about wanting to see 455 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:27,280 Speaker 1: Rod Rosenstein's mandate, and the mandate is so broad that 456 00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:31,399 Speaker 1: it includes a two thousand five tax case. Well, that 457 00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:35,080 Speaker 1: means basically anybody can be indicted it through the Special Council, 458 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:37,840 Speaker 1: and nobody's really paying a lot of attention as he's 459 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 1: now literally, you know, handing out work all over the place, 460 00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:44,880 Speaker 1: you know, ferreting out this one and that one, and 461 00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:48,760 Speaker 1: you know, it's just unbelievable. Okay, where well, where's the 462 00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:54,440 Speaker 1: Russia collusion in this? Well, we do know that Russian misinformation, 463 00:26:55,280 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 1: Russian propaganda, Russian lies. We're paid for by Hillary and 464 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 1: the d n C, whose finances she controlled. According to 465 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:07,360 Speaker 1: Donna Brazil, they funneled the money through a law firm 466 00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:13,760 Speaker 1: they fired, hired Fusion GPS Glenn Simpson his group, and 467 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:17,200 Speaker 1: then they hired Christopher Steele. Christopher Steel is also being 468 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:20,919 Speaker 1: paid by the FBI. And we know that Christopher Steele 469 00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:24,199 Speaker 1: didn't even believe in his own dossier. We've come to 470 00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 1: find out. We find out that under oath, under the 471 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 1: threat of perjury, and great Brittany said, uh, I'd listen, 472 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:34,000 Speaker 1: this is raw intelligence. I have no idea if any 473 00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:37,960 Speaker 1: of this is true. Fifty fifty maybe I don't know. Okay, 474 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:42,160 Speaker 1: then how did it possibly become the basis of four 475 00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:45,320 Speaker 1: fights A warrants and how did they not verify it 476 00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:48,439 Speaker 1: and how did they not corroborate it? And how did 477 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 1: they not tell the judge or the four judges and 478 00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:56,080 Speaker 1: the original application, three subsequent applications, Hillary paid for it. 479 00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:58,919 Speaker 1: How is it that Hillary got off when it's the 480 00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:02,800 Speaker 1: biggest lamb dunk obstruction of justice case we've ever seen 481 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:06,879 Speaker 1: in history and a clear violation of the Espionage Act. 482 00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:10,119 Speaker 1: How did all that happen? And what we're discovering is 483 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:13,440 Speaker 1: that's why the people that have either resigned, have been 484 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:16,520 Speaker 1: demoted or fired from the FBI and the d o J. 485 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:21,760 Speaker 1: It's it's not by accident that these people have been exposed. 486 00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 1: And what are we finding fix was in for Hillary? 487 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 1: That Hillary like she rigged the primary against poor Bernie Sanders. 488 00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:33,280 Speaker 1: Nobody ever seems to care. I care. I don't know why. 489 00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:37,679 Speaker 1: I just think in America, rigging primary shouldn't happen. And 490 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 1: then they you then Hillary tried to do in the 491 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:43,640 Speaker 1: general election. She pays for these Russian lies. The Russian 492 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 1: lines are disseminated through the America to the American people, 493 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:50,560 Speaker 1: this phony witch hunt begins, and all these people in 494 00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:53,600 Speaker 1: all these different spots that we we interconnected all this. 495 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 1: We have Russian influence, it was actually bought and paid for. 496 00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:03,440 Speaker 1: We have FISA core judges that were that a fraud 497 00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 1: was committed on them.

We have 500 00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:19,200 Speaker 1: a communication stream back and forth before the election, after 501 00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 1: the election. I hope the firewalls hold. And uh boy, 502 00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:26,960 Speaker 1: I'm getting a little nervous here. I'm worried we might 503 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:30,480 Speaker 1: be exposed. And you go to Struck and Page and 504 00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 1: all that corruption. I mean, it stinks to hide. I 505 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 1: haven't want any of these people have any security clearances. 506 00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:40,760 Speaker 1: So the President's piste off, When is Bruce or going 507 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:44,040 Speaker 1: to be fired? You know? When is uh? When is 508 00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:48,680 Speaker 1: Jeff Sessions Justice Department gonna fire him? Remember Bruce Or 509 00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:51,400 Speaker 1: he's talking to steal about the dossier. Stealer had already 510 00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:54,240 Speaker 1: been fired from the FBI. He's fired from the FBI. 511 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:58,080 Speaker 1: But the bulk of the FISA warrants are steals, dossier 512 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 1: Russian lines. And yet we're dealing with the two thousand 513 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 1: whatever tax case of Poe Manafort. No Russia, none, no, 514 00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:14,120 Speaker 1: collusion none, no Trump none, no campaign nothing. This is 515 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 1: what it's all become. And this is equal justice under 516 00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:21,640 Speaker 1: the law. This is equal application of our laws. Now 517 00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:25,600 Speaker 1: this is a travesty. This is a witch hunt. I 518 00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 1: don't blame the president for being piste off. He has 519 00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:32,080 Speaker 1: every right to be piste off at this point. And 520 00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:34,560 Speaker 1: it keeps going on and on and on, and then 521 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:37,200 Speaker 1: his own attorney, the White House Council is talking to Mueller, 522 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:41,960 Speaker 1: and then it gets into and and John Brennan can 523 00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:46,400 Speaker 1: say whatever he wants about the President of the United States, 524 00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:49,480 Speaker 1: no ramifications with his security clearance. And that was the case. 525 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:52,640 Speaker 1: People are trying to make you know, where is the 526 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 1: evidence of collusion, But we got collusion. Somebody paid for 527 00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:58,280 Speaker 1: Russian lines and used Russian lines to get a FISA 528 00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:03,960 Speaker 1: warrant four times. These unbelievable times we're living at. You 529 00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:07,360 Speaker 1: have a former top defense official. This was on Fox 530 00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:11,920 Speaker 1: News Sunday, Admiral Michael Mullen. You know, risk damaging Brennan 531 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:16,160 Speaker 1: was risking damaging America's intelligence community with his anti Trump comments. 532 00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:20,040 Speaker 1: Even Brennan said, he's away over the top. You know, 533 00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:25,280 Speaker 1: we've got remember back the Weekly Standard November. They pointed 534 00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:29,920 Speaker 1: out that it was Brennan that tried to what no, no, 535 00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 1: Now we know he lied to the Senate and Tell 536 00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 1: Committee as well as the American people about spying and 537 00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:38,800 Speaker 1: and so on and so forth, and illegally spied on 538 00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:42,160 Speaker 1: the Senate Intelligence Committee issue of teen. Brennan but actually 539 00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:46,720 Speaker 1: tried to silence the heroes of Benghazi, keeping them from 540 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:50,000 Speaker 1: telling the truth about what happened over there, because he 541 00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:53,440 Speaker 1: was afraid it would expose the Obama administrations and Hillary's 542 00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:57,600 Speaker 1: big Benghazi cover up. Remember, they wanted these guys, forced 543 00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:01,320 Speaker 1: them to sign non disclosure agreements. By the way, even 544 00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:06,440 Speaker 1: the Washington Post people forget July thirty one, fourteen, they 545 00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:11,440 Speaker 1: called for Brennan to be fired. Interesting quote, you know 546 00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:14,720 Speaker 1: the accusation. Washington Post points out that John Brennan was 547 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 1: asked by Andrew Mitchell whether the CIA had illegally access 548 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:22,000 Speaker 1: Senate Intelligence Committee staff computers to thwart an investigation by 549 00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:26,479 Speaker 1: the committee into the agency's passed interrogation techniques. Accusation had 550 00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:28,840 Speaker 1: been made earlier in the day by Diane Feinstein, who 551 00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:33,200 Speaker 1: said that the CIA violated separation of powers principle. Brennan said, 552 00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:37,160 Speaker 1: as far as the allegations, you know, CIA hacking Senate computers. 553 00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:40,959 Speaker 1: Nothing could be further from the truth. Should surprise nobody. 554 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:43,440 Speaker 1: When the truth came out, Brennan was exposed as a liar. 555 00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:46,600 Speaker 1: And it goes on and on, like, are we the 556 00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:49,640 Speaker 1: only people that don't do any investigative reporting? You're not 557 00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:53,440 Speaker 1: a reporter, Hannah. We yeah, we do reporting a lot 558 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:56,840 Speaker 1: more than they do. By the way, sixty one people 559 00:32:56,920 --> 00:33:01,560 Speaker 1: shot over the weekend in Chicago. What are we doing? 560 00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:05,520 Speaker 1: When is that going to be fixed? I can't believe 561 00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:09,200 Speaker 1: this is allowed to continue in this great country. It's 562 00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:13,120 Speaker 1: unbelievable to me. I've got to protect the people in Chicago. 563 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:17,440 Speaker 1: Is that so hard to understand? Put the resources on 564 00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:22,200 Speaker 1: the ground. Dead fish isn't gonna do it. So John 565 00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 1: Brennan's threatening to Sue. Okay, Sue. I love to get 566 00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:33,720 Speaker 1: you know, Discovery into his emails, etcetera. Text messages, all right, 567 00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:36,719 Speaker 1: New Gingrich, Sarah Gregg much more.

Uh that he had even some 575 00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:04,160 Speaker 1: thirty hours of testimony as it relates to what he 576 00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:06,920 Speaker 1: saw and heard in the White House. The White House 577 00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:09,680 Speaker 1: handed over one point four million documents as it relates 578 00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:13,200 Speaker 1: to those witch hunt. Now, the White House Special Counsel 579 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:17,040 Speaker 1: represents the President and the office, and he gave thirty 580 00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:20,680 Speaker 1: hours a testimony. But with that said, uh, new king 581 00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:23,719 Speaker 1: Rich who joins us now, I think rightly points out, 582 00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:26,920 Speaker 1: well now that there's no no of the heat testified 583 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:30,680 Speaker 1: the president's lawyer for thirty hours. There's no reason at 584 00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:33,720 Speaker 1: all for Muller to even ask to interview the President, 585 00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:36,600 Speaker 1: which I think is a thousand percent right. The only 586 00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:39,319 Speaker 1: reason Mr Speaker would be to me, it seems that 587 00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:43,000 Speaker 1: it would be a perjury travel Well, your lawyer said this, 588 00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:46,520 Speaker 1: and you say that, and one of yours are lying, 589 00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:50,759 Speaker 1: and we're going to determine who the lawar is.

No, Well, what I was focused. 619 00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:25,400 Speaker 1: I'm not a lawyers, you know, I'm a historian. But 620 00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:27,920 Speaker 1: the three lawyers I constall him with yesterday all said, 621 00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:33,240 Speaker 1: I just flat out when when you give up executive privilege, 622 00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:37,640 Speaker 1: which the president did, and you give up lawyer confidentiality, 623 00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:41,600 Speaker 1: which the president did, and your top attorney, who's the 624 00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:45,040 Speaker 1: guy who was in the room all the time spends 625 00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:50,120 Speaker 1: you think about this thirty hours talking to Moore's team 626 00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:53,600 Speaker 1: and saying to them, based on the New York Times coverage, 627 00:36:54,200 --> 00:36:56,960 Speaker 1: that as a lawyer, he did not believe Trump did 628 00:36:57,160 --> 00:37:02,520 Speaker 1: anything illegal. Now at point, what's Moller's case for just 629 00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:06,239 Speaker 1: not closing up shop, writing a report and going home. 630 00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:10,720 Speaker 1: I mean, this is over. Not only only a crazy 631 00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:15,000 Speaker 1: fanatically Brennan, I would think that there's anything left in 632 00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:17,879 Speaker 1: this story and the truth is that the time has 633 00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:22,360 Speaker 1: come to just close it down, to go home. Realized 634 00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:24,560 Speaker 1: that it was a dry hold. There ain't nothing there, 635 00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:27,320 Speaker 1: and they're never gonna get Donald Trump in these issues. 636 00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:31,320 Speaker 1: You've lived through this. How many ethical charges were thrown 637 00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:34,880 Speaker 1: at you? And I think all but once you know, 638 00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:36,799 Speaker 1: and even that one, I think eventually was thrown out. 639 00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:40,640 Speaker 1: How many total, well, I had. I had eighty three 640 00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:44,239 Speaker 1: Athletics Committee charges we beat eighty two three was the 641 00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:47,280 Speaker 1: lawyer a letter my lawyer had written that was technically wrong, 642 00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:49,319 Speaker 1: but it was my fault because I did sign it, 643 00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:51,759 Speaker 1: but it was written by the lawyer. That's the only 644 00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:54,480 Speaker 1: thing out of AD three. I then an attacked by 645 00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:57,440 Speaker 1: the Internal Revenue Service under Bill Clinton, and an attacked 646 00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:00,399 Speaker 1: by the Federal Election Commission. And after two years you're 647 00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:03,920 Speaker 1: fighting in court. We weren't both of those, And the 648 00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:06,600 Speaker 1: judges in fact chastise both the i r S and 649 00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:09,719 Speaker 1: the FEC and said that they were clearly false attacks 650 00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:12,319 Speaker 1: done for political purpose. By the way, I've had the 651 00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:14,560 Speaker 1: same thing happened in my life. I wonder if this 652 00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:18,560 Speaker 1: is a coincidence. And then you spend how many thousands 653 00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:21,520 Speaker 1: and thousands and thousands of dollars and lawyers fees. There's 654 00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:24,719 Speaker 1: no choice, there's no option, and uh and after that, 655 00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:28,560 Speaker 1: But what it does is it effectively distracts you and 656 00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:31,160 Speaker 1: prevents you from putting your full focus on the job 657 00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:33,760 Speaker 1: you have. Mueller has been at this, you know since 658 00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:38,480 Speaker 1: what April of seventeen. I think it's you know, high 659 00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:42,839 Speaker 1: time or sixteen whatever it was, now seventeen, I mean, 660 00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:44,600 Speaker 1: it's high time this goes away. It's a year and 661 00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:49,080 Speaker 1: a half. What does he have. But beyond that, you 662 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:52,799 Speaker 1: have to give Trump enormous credit. You do exactly right. 663 00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:55,360 Speaker 1: If it was pretty tough for me to do the 664 00:38:55,440 --> 00:39:01,120 Speaker 1: speaker negotiate the only balanced budgets in your lifetime, negotiating reform, 665 00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:03,880 Speaker 1: to negotiate the largest capital in text. That can do 666 00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:05,799 Speaker 1: all of that, will having this kind of a fight 667 00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 1: in the way. But to watch the president calmly lives 668 00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:14,840 Speaker 1: through all this, uh a little constant brawl, uh and 669 00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:17,880 Speaker 1: not back down, not get tired, not get weak. So 670 00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:22,200 Speaker 1: it's an amazing performance on his part. Listen, I tend 671 00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:24,919 Speaker 1: to agree with you, and and in the sense that 672 00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:29,239 Speaker 1: I think this is an important overall lesson for everybody 673 00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:31,279 Speaker 1: in terms of all right, what do they have here. 674 00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:34,080 Speaker 1: Now what frustrates me and that we're now in day 675 00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:37,040 Speaker 1: three still no verdict in the Mantaphor case. It has 676 00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:39,800 Speaker 1: nothing to do with collusion, nothing to do with the campaign, 677 00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:41,960 Speaker 1: nothing to do with Trump, nothing to do with Russia. 678 00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:45,200 Speaker 1: But this is what Muller and his team have focused on. 679 00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:47,680 Speaker 1: And I believe that the judge Ellis is correct and 680 00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:50,359 Speaker 1: that this was to put the screws to Manifort, that 681 00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:54,879 Speaker 1: he was literally singled out because of his his role 682 00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:58,120 Speaker 1: for a hundred days working for Donald Trump. And I 683 00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:01,000 Speaker 1: think that all of that is true. And I guess 684 00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:03,799 Speaker 1: now the big question is, well, what about the real 685 00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:06,880 Speaker 1: Russian lies that were propagated to the American people that 686 00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:10,920 Speaker 1: Hillary paid for, that the phony dossier that even Steel 687 00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:13,759 Speaker 1: admits he never verified. That we're fed to afise a 688 00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:18,120 Speaker 1: court and four applications and a fraud committed upon the court. 689 00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:20,520 Speaker 1: How come we have all this Russia stuff that they 690 00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:23,160 Speaker 1: could be looking at, and then we have literally Adam 691 00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:26,280 Speaker 1: Schiff on tape talking to a Russian about naked pictures 692 00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:29,960 Speaker 1: of or who he thinks is a Russian source giving 693 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:33,920 Speaker 1: him information about Donald Trump and naked pictures, and that 694 00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:36,760 Speaker 1: evidence is there nobody talks about the real Russia collusion. 695 00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:42,120 Speaker 1: And I think we've learned how really sick the national 696 00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:46,080 Speaker 1: establishment has been, and how bipartisan some of that sickness is. 697 00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:50,839 Speaker 1: And I think we've learned that, um, if Hillary had one, 698 00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:53,440 Speaker 1: all of us who have been swept under the rug, 699 00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:55,799 Speaker 1: none of them whatever come out in the open. And 700 00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:59,319 Speaker 1: we're I think only in the opening stages will take 701 00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:02,160 Speaker 1: you across us of taking apart things that are going 702 00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:04,640 Speaker 1: to just shock us, and we're gonna look at them 703 00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:07,160 Speaker 1: and we're gonna think it could really have been this 704 00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:11,000 Speaker 1: bad and could they really have been this sick? But 705 00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:13,400 Speaker 1: I think that I'm not just the point similar to 706 00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:15,839 Speaker 1: it'sak a loot monoport per second, mean, what what do 707 00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:19,160 Speaker 1: you like Palmentivo? You disliked palm Asset from the time 708 00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:22,280 Speaker 1: that they invaded his house at three in the morning 709 00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:24,719 Speaker 1: with he and his wife and the pajamas and had 710 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:28,839 Speaker 1: armed federal agents. Could could no practical reason, movement reason 711 00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:32,240 Speaker 1: to do this except intimidation, and that the sheer power 712 00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:36,120 Speaker 1: of a tyranny then manifests. Been sitting over here and 713 00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:41,279 Speaker 1: I've recently started writing some lettercis and experts sitting in isolation, 714 00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:45,719 Speaker 1: but the only three hours a day. I think he 715 00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:48,400 Speaker 1: has no television. I mean, I mean this is a 716 00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:52,040 Speaker 1: sort of thing which is considered a punishment. Uh. If 717 00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:55,480 Speaker 1: you know, if he were a terrorist and he's at Montanolo, 718 00:41:55,880 --> 00:42:00,759 Speaker 1: we'd have outrage about the way he's been tweeted. And yet, man, 719 00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:03,960 Speaker 1: what you see is that Muller has been willing to 720 00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:07,120 Speaker 1: use the power of the government to go after an 721 00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:11,440 Speaker 1: individual in order, frankly, to terrify everybody else. Will signal 722 00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:14,320 Speaker 1: here is not about Manafort. It's not everybody else. He 723 00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:17,759 Speaker 1: might go lafter to put the screws. The judge said it, 724 00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:21,560 Speaker 1: to put the screws to Manafort so he sings or composes, 725 00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:25,439 Speaker 1: so they can prosecute or impeach Trump. The judge had 726 00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:29,520 Speaker 1: this from day one, and I've got to imagine that 727 00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:31,759 Speaker 1: this is why this jury hasn't come back yet. I 728 00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:34,040 Speaker 1: can't believe they're not back, and I wouldn't read into it. 729 00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:38,279 Speaker 1: I think the odds are against manaford conviction rate in 730 00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:42,919 Speaker 1: federal court. You know there he called to not bring 731 00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:46,040 Speaker 1: in any wusnesses and just say the federal governments not 732 00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:49,040 Speaker 1: proven this case. It was a gutsy call. I agree. 733 00:42:50,560 --> 00:42:54,600 Speaker 1: Let me go back to one other things. James Comey fired, 734 00:42:54,920 --> 00:43:01,840 Speaker 1: Andrew McCabe fired, struck Uh fired Page, demote, resigned Robicki Baker. 735 00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:04,080 Speaker 1: And then if you go to and you include FBI 736 00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:07,800 Speaker 1: and d o J departure, Sally Yates, fired Bruce or 737 00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:11,759 Speaker 1: demoted twice associate deputy, you've got twenty five people in 738 00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:16,480 Speaker 1: total that are involved at the highest levels. And what 739 00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:20,160 Speaker 1: are nothing but deep state shenanigans. Why aren't any of 740 00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:22,359 Speaker 1: these people indicted, and why would any of them ever 741 00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:26,440 Speaker 1: deserve to keep their security clearance? And when are the 742 00:43:26,520 --> 00:43:33,720 Speaker 1: House and Senate Judiciary committees gonna take seriously their responsibility 743 00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:37,440 Speaker 1: to have Watergate style hearings out in the open and 744 00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:40,439 Speaker 1: bring in all of these people and layoff the case, 745 00:43:40,600 --> 00:43:43,080 Speaker 1: not just as you point out, not just about Trumps, 746 00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:44,920 Speaker 1: but all the way back to how the Clintons have 747 00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:47,839 Speaker 1: been handled, When the Clintons and their allies have been 748 00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:53,400 Speaker 1: protected in ways given given immunity in ways that are astonishing. 749 00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:56,160 Speaker 1: And if you put up a card and you showed 750 00:43:56,480 --> 00:43:59,520 Speaker 1: the treatment of the Clinton team and the treatment of 751 00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:03,160 Speaker 1: the Trump team, you understand how sick the deep state is. 752 00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:06,520 Speaker 1: And this is not just some random language. You know, 753 00:44:06,600 --> 00:44:09,359 Speaker 1: the last four years, fifty years, we've seen to grow 754 00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:12,799 Speaker 1: through a bureaucracy which states it's above the law, it's 755 00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:16,360 Speaker 1: above accountability, and it gets to define president. If you 756 00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:20,120 Speaker 1: look at again a Brenner implemented, who believes that he 757 00:44:20,160 --> 00:44:22,920 Speaker 1: can say the president is a traitor and then with 758 00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:26,759 Speaker 1: a straight tase say no, I'm not political. And you 759 00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:28,759 Speaker 1: have to think this is a guy who has very 760 00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:32,680 Speaker 1: serious mental health problems, was just a compulsive wire. Well, 761 00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:35,839 Speaker 1: I just want to know, I mean, you know why 762 00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:38,640 Speaker 1: anyone would think it's right to keep fired or resigned 763 00:44:38,719 --> 00:44:41,960 Speaker 1: people that resign under a cloud, or demoted people that 764 00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:44,560 Speaker 1: somehow they deserve to keep their security clearance. You know, 765 00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:47,480 Speaker 1: there's a new book out and um I had the 766 00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:50,279 Speaker 1: authors on last week. It's called Compromised, How Money in 767 00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:53,400 Speaker 1: Politics Drive ATBI Corruption. Now. It's put out by the 768 00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:57,920 Speaker 1: Government Accountability Institute. That's Peter Schweitzer's group, and uh he 769 00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:00,239 Speaker 1: wrote the foreward and Shamus Bruner wrote the book. But 770 00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:04,200 Speaker 1: among the other findings here is that security clearances we 771 00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:07,280 Speaker 1: discover worth a lot of money. Points out James Comey, 772 00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:10,120 Speaker 1: for example, made six point one million dollars after the 773 00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:12,879 Speaker 1: FBI granted his employer, Lockheed Martin, who was I guess 774 00:45:12,880 --> 00:45:15,600 Speaker 1: he was representing at the time, a billion dollar boondoggle. 775 00:45:16,080 --> 00:45:19,640 Speaker 1: Under Muller's direction, the FBI granted multiple spy contracts to 776 00:45:19,719 --> 00:45:22,640 Speaker 1: Lockeed Martin while Comey was advising them on legality of 777 00:45:22,680 --> 00:45:26,120 Speaker 1: their operations. You got another six million dollars working with 778 00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:28,839 Speaker 1: one of the world's largest hedge funds, and another five 779 00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:31,640 Speaker 1: grand for unused vacation time. Now I'm not saying there's 780 00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:35,320 Speaker 1: anything the fairies here, but I am saying that those 781 00:45:35,360 --> 00:45:43,279 Speaker 1: security clearances are worth money. Your thoughts on the five 782 00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:47,279 Speaker 1: years that there is no You know, this is not 783 00:45:47,320 --> 00:45:51,880 Speaker 1: an automatic earned right, This is not an aristocracy. You 784 00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:54,720 Speaker 1: get the clearance for the purpose of serving the country 785 00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:56,680 Speaker 1: that when you're no longer serve in the country, you 786 00:45:56,760 --> 00:45:59,520 Speaker 1: give up clearances that were really very high when I was. 787 00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:02,200 Speaker 1: But it would never occurred to me to try to 788 00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:05,520 Speaker 1: keep clearances at that level once I quit being speaker. 789 00:46:05,640 --> 00:46:08,040 Speaker 1: The ironic thing is that we found a provision within 790 00:46:08,080 --> 00:46:10,080 Speaker 1: the CIA that says that, well, the only way you 791 00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:12,120 Speaker 1: keep your clearance if you act in a manner as 792 00:46:12,160 --> 00:46:16,440 Speaker 1: a currency I a employee. Brennan is not meeting that standard. Uh, 793 00:46:16,600 --> 00:46:20,640 Speaker 1: if you listen to the media eight other places, the 794 00:46:20,680 --> 00:46:25,160 Speaker 1: Democrats are going to take over the House. Uh. I 795 00:46:25,200 --> 00:46:30,520 Speaker 1: would like to think that's not true. Well, first of all, 796 00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:35,279 Speaker 1: there's a fascinating new book coming outside the head of 797 00:46:35,440 --> 00:46:39,799 Speaker 1: polling for CBS who starts with the whole notion of 798 00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:43,960 Speaker 1: how wrong they were when they tried to call the 799 00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:47,600 Speaker 1: election in two thousand sixteen, and he goes back and says, 800 00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:51,360 Speaker 1: you know, there's some really painful lessons to be learned 801 00:46:51,400 --> 00:46:56,240 Speaker 1: by how how wrong we were. And his conclusion was, uh, 802 00:46:56,400 --> 00:47:00,880 Speaker 1: that they didn't look in detail at what was really 803 00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:04,040 Speaker 1: going on. He has a brand new bookout which I recommend. 804 00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:08,799 Speaker 1: Everybody's names Anthony Salvanto and looking along the point team 805 00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:12,120 Speaker 1: makes it I think the normal establishment types domp here. 806 00:47:12,719 --> 00:47:14,759 Speaker 1: He said, what was happening the last six weeks of 807 00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:17,960 Speaker 1: the campaign was that everybody who was on the side 808 00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:21,480 Speaker 1: it was splitting for for Trump. And the reason was 809 00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:24,160 Speaker 1: that they had all had years and years and years 810 00:47:24,800 --> 00:47:27,200 Speaker 1: to decide their like Hillary, and they just couldn't do it. 811 00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:32,200 Speaker 1: And Trump ran this very aggressive, was very intense campaign. 812 00:47:32,640 --> 00:47:35,399 Speaker 1: As you remember, five or six major rallies a day, 813 00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:38,680 Speaker 1: and each of those rallies had twenty thousand people, and 814 00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:41,520 Speaker 1: each of those people took pictures with her smartphones and 815 00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:43,600 Speaker 1: sent it out to twenty or more of their friends. 816 00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:47,400 Speaker 1: So each rally was a four hundred thousand or million 817 00:47:47,719 --> 00:47:51,000 Speaker 1: person events in terms of impact. She was doing one 818 00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:55,239 Speaker 1: of it a day for fifteen hundred people. And Savanta's 819 00:47:55,280 --> 00:47:58,480 Speaker 1: point is that when you looked at the momentum underneath 820 00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:02,440 Speaker 1: all of what was going towards Trump. So so here's 821 00:48:02,560 --> 00:48:08,880 Speaker 1: here's my prediction. If the Trump team, including the President 822 00:48:09,560 --> 00:48:14,040 Speaker 1: and the Republican National Committee, which has done under uh 823 00:48:14,400 --> 00:48:17,160 Speaker 1: Roland's jobs. He has done an amazing job as the 824 00:48:17,280 --> 00:48:21,440 Speaker 1: chairman of raising more money than anybody in history, obviously 825 00:48:21,520 --> 00:48:24,920 Speaker 1: with enormous help from the President. If that team, working 826 00:48:25,040 --> 00:48:28,560 Speaker 1: with the House and Sentate committees, runs a very issue 827 00:48:28,640 --> 00:48:31,880 Speaker 1: oriented campaign in September in October, we're going to have 828 00:48:32,040 --> 00:48:34,880 Speaker 1: an upset as big as nineteen, as as two thousand 829 00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:37,920 Speaker 1: and sixteen. I mean, everybody who told you of two 830 00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:41,720 Speaker 1: thousands of sixteen that Hillary was clearly gonna win, Everybody 831 00:48:41,760 --> 00:48:44,080 Speaker 1: who went into two thousands of sixteen election night buying 832 00:48:44,200 --> 00:48:47,160 Speaker 1: champagne as a good leberl, They're going to be as 833 00:48:47,239 --> 00:48:52,440 Speaker 1: shaken come election night, and I'll give you two quick examples. Um, 834 00:48:53,080 --> 00:49:00,480 Speaker 1: every Democratic Senate incumbent responsible, Bill Okay as CORESPONSI open orders, 835 00:49:01,120 --> 00:49:04,440 Speaker 1: and I doubt if the country's from with orders. So 836 00:49:04,560 --> 00:49:06,920 Speaker 1: thank you. Go on try to defend that in deep trouble. 837 00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:11,520 Speaker 1: Sanctuary cities are worse percent the country thinks they increase crime. 838 00:49:12,320 --> 00:49:14,360 Speaker 1: So if we have a very issue ran a campaign 839 00:49:14,440 --> 00:49:17,040 Speaker 1: this fall, you're going to be very happy on election night. 840 00:49:17,800 --> 00:49:19,920 Speaker 1: Let's hope they listen to you. One of the smartest 841 00:49:19,960 --> 00:49:22,000 Speaker 1: guys in politics, New Gingrids, thank you. We have an 842 00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:25,000 Speaker 1: exclusive breaking story next than Sarah and Greg straight Ahead. 843 00:49:46,960 --> 00:49:50,680 Speaker 1: Didn't the I R S scandal and the NSA atrocities 844 00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:56,280 Speaker 1: convince you you need a watchdog on Washington with insider sources. 845 00:49:56,719 --> 00:50:00,040 Speaker 1: You need Hannity every day. Do you think that on 846 00:50:00,160 --> 00:50:03,239 Speaker 1: Brandan's hyperbole is an issue? Here is one of the 847 00:50:03,280 --> 00:50:06,080 Speaker 1: reasons we're having this crisis? Well, I think it is. 848 00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:10,800 Speaker 1: I think, um, you know, John is sort of like 849 00:50:10,880 --> 00:50:14,040 Speaker 1: a freight train and he's gonna say what's on his mind. 850 00:50:14,960 --> 00:50:17,800 Speaker 1: I think though, that the common denominator among all of 851 00:50:17,920 --> 00:50:20,960 Speaker 1: us that have been speaking up though, is genuine concern 852 00:50:21,040 --> 00:50:25,240 Speaker 1: about the jeopardy or threats to our institutions and values. 853 00:50:25,920 --> 00:50:29,520 Speaker 1: And although we may express that in in different ways, 854 00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:32,040 Speaker 1: and I think that's what this this really is about. 855 00:50:32,120 --> 00:50:36,799 Speaker 1: But John and his rhetoric had become I think an 856 00:50:36,840 --> 00:50:40,480 Speaker 1: issue in and of itself. You indicated that you've had 857 00:50:40,560 --> 00:50:43,799 Speaker 1: lawyers contact you about possible legal action. It's forty eight 858 00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:46,480 Speaker 1: hours later. What would that look like. Is that something 859 00:50:46,520 --> 00:50:49,719 Speaker 1: you're serious about. Well, I have been contacted by a 860 00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:52,480 Speaker 1: number of lawyers and they have already given me their 861 00:50:52,520 --> 00:50:56,279 Speaker 1: thoughts about the basis for a complaint and injunction to 862 00:50:56,360 --> 00:50:58,120 Speaker 1: try to prevent him from doing this in the future. 863 00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:02,319 Speaker 1: If my clearing sys and my reputation as I'm being 864 00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:04,960 Speaker 1: pulled through the mud now, if that's the price we're 865 00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:07,759 Speaker 1: going to pay to prevent Donald Trump from doing this 866 00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:10,239 Speaker 1: against other people, to me, it's a small price to pay. 867 00:51:10,760 --> 00:51:13,360 Speaker 1: So I am going to do whatever I can personally 868 00:51:13,760 --> 00:51:16,440 Speaker 1: to try to prevent these abuses in the future, and 869 00:51:16,520 --> 00:51:19,200 Speaker 1: if it means going to court, I will I will 870 00:51:19,239 --> 00:51:23,960 Speaker 1: do that. This is a dictatorial exercise of power that 871 00:51:24,080 --> 00:51:29,600 Speaker 1: should frighten and call on all Republicans to say, Mr President, 872 00:51:29,719 --> 00:51:32,640 Speaker 1: you cannot do this. You are trying to inhibit the 873 00:51:32,800 --> 00:51:36,360 Speaker 1: free speech of people who may be in opposition to you, 874 00:51:36,719 --> 00:51:41,960 Speaker 1: to use this kind of punishment to chill speak in 875 00:51:42,080 --> 00:51:44,480 Speaker 1: the violation of the First Amendment. I mean, this is 876 00:51:45,200 --> 00:51:48,239 Speaker 1: a striking move towards authoritarianism. You know, this is what 877 00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:51,080 Speaker 1: dictators do. They shut down the press, shut down to 878 00:51:51,239 --> 00:51:54,400 Speaker 1: send they jailed their opponents for in this case, they 879 00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:57,879 Speaker 1: steal their security clearance. What happened here was a pure 880 00:51:57,960 --> 00:52:02,279 Speaker 1: authoritarian act from an president who wanted to punish one 881 00:52:02,320 --> 00:52:07,200 Speaker 1: of his critics, nothing more, nothing less him right now. 882 00:52:07,320 --> 00:52:10,839 Speaker 1: But do you know what he already right, it doesn't 883 00:52:10,880 --> 00:52:13,600 Speaker 1: influence me already, taking away from from John Leiden. So 884 00:52:13,680 --> 00:52:16,600 Speaker 1: doesn't that say that everybody else shut your mouth because 885 00:52:16,680 --> 00:52:20,080 Speaker 1: something was a norm means that it's it's law. That's 886 00:52:20,080 --> 00:52:22,120 Speaker 1: not the case. A lot of these people that had 887 00:52:22,200 --> 00:52:24,840 Speaker 1: these security clearances, and this is the secret and in 888 00:52:24,880 --> 00:52:27,600 Speaker 1: the swampy Washington d C. They have them and they 889 00:52:27,719 --> 00:52:31,360 Speaker 1: keep them because it's profitable for them after they leave government. 890 00:52:31,400 --> 00:52:33,680 Speaker 1: Because if you have a security clearance, especially high level 891 00:52:33,719 --> 00:52:37,200 Speaker 1: security clearances, your contracts and your consulting gift pay you 892 00:52:37,280 --> 00:52:39,320 Speaker 1: a lot more money because of the access that you have. 893 00:52:39,640 --> 00:52:41,759 Speaker 1: I hope the President continues to do this, and I 894 00:52:41,840 --> 00:52:43,640 Speaker 1: hope he adds i'm a Rosa to the list because 895 00:52:43,680 --> 00:52:46,720 Speaker 1: if she has a clearance, she too, because of her actions, 896 00:52:47,239 --> 00:52:48,920 Speaker 1: should have it revoked. Well, I don't know if I 897 00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:51,359 Speaker 1: put m Rossa in the same category of seople sign 898 00:52:51,400 --> 00:52:53,200 Speaker 1: those letters but film. But I imagine you want to 899 00:52:53,239 --> 00:52:57,480 Speaker 1: react profitable Paris. When I am requested to sit on 900 00:52:57,640 --> 00:53:01,040 Speaker 1: advise your board, let me ask you one question. How 901 00:53:01,160 --> 00:53:03,000 Speaker 1: much do you think I'm paid to do that? At 902 00:53:03,040 --> 00:53:05,360 Speaker 1: the requestion to the US government? Give me one answer 903 00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:08,399 Speaker 1: and you got ten seconds. How much I'll give I'll 904 00:53:08,400 --> 00:53:10,360 Speaker 1: ask you a question, how much are you paid for 905 00:53:10,400 --> 00:53:13,719 Speaker 1: your answer? The question? Acting gigs for for being a 906 00:53:14,120 --> 00:53:16,680 Speaker 1: They have no contract with the US government that paid more. 907 00:53:16,719 --> 00:53:18,440 Speaker 1: I'm not talking hearing. This is the thing I'm not 908 00:53:18,560 --> 00:53:24,480 Speaker 1: talking about that's beyond this. I'm not talking about your 909 00:53:24,600 --> 00:53:29,600 Speaker 1: role with the federal government. I'm talking about the Sultan 910 00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:32,640 Speaker 1: and a contractor. The consulting firms that they form and 911 00:53:32,680 --> 00:53:35,239 Speaker 1: that you all get is because you get more money 912 00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:38,240 Speaker 1: when having a consultant before before having the security class. 913 00:53:38,920 --> 00:53:41,800 Speaker 1: That doesn't happen. I have zero consulting relationship to with 914 00:53:41,840 --> 00:53:44,279 Speaker 1: the U s government zero. I'm not talking field. That's 915 00:53:44,320 --> 00:53:48,560 Speaker 1: a good talking point. That was a phenomenal debate, believe 916 00:53:48,600 --> 00:53:50,759 Speaker 1: it or not on fake news CNN. Now I wasn't 917 00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:53,239 Speaker 1: watching fake news CNN. I saw it the media because 918 00:53:53,280 --> 00:53:56,840 Speaker 1: they had the clip up Paris de Nard clabboring this 919 00:53:57,160 --> 00:54:00,879 Speaker 1: the Santy Trumper of film money. I never I tell 920 00:54:01,000 --> 00:54:04,200 Speaker 1: me what what contracts I had with the US cover 921 00:54:04,480 --> 00:54:07,400 Speaker 1: that somebody's talking about. I told you about this new 922 00:54:07,440 --> 00:54:11,040 Speaker 1: book last week, and we had Peter schweitzeran and Shamus 923 00:54:11,080 --> 00:54:14,479 Speaker 1: Brunner on the program, and it's called Compromise. How money 924 00:54:14,560 --> 00:54:18,759 Speaker 1: and politics drive FBI corruption? Now, what are these security 925 00:54:18,840 --> 00:54:22,680 Speaker 1: clearance is worth? Now? The book points out James Comey's 926 00:54:22,719 --> 00:54:27,239 Speaker 1: net worth skyrocketed over four thousand percent between leaving the 927 00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:29,920 Speaker 1: d O J and OH five and returning to the FBI. 928 00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:33,680 Speaker 1: In the book chronicles how Comy made six point one 929 00:54:33,760 --> 00:54:37,840 Speaker 1: million dollars after Mueller's FBI granted his employer. In other words, 930 00:54:38,040 --> 00:54:41,839 Speaker 1: Comey's working for Lockheed Martin, which is the largest contractor 931 00:54:42,160 --> 00:54:47,200 Speaker 1: in history and what was many described a billion dollar boondoggle, 932 00:54:47,719 --> 00:54:50,920 Speaker 1: and under Mueller's direction. He was the FBI director at 933 00:54:50,960 --> 00:54:55,400 Speaker 1: the time. The FBI granted multiple spy contracts to Lockheed 934 00:54:55,480 --> 00:54:59,440 Speaker 1: Martin while Comey advised them on the quote legality of 935 00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:02,880 Speaker 1: their operations. At six point one million dollars, we're talking 936 00:55:02,920 --> 00:55:05,200 Speaker 1: about this serious amount of money. Well, what are they 937 00:55:05,280 --> 00:55:07,920 Speaker 1: paying for. They're paying for contacts, which by the way, 938 00:55:08,000 --> 00:55:12,040 Speaker 1: can be totally completely legitimate. But the point is that 939 00:55:12,200 --> 00:55:16,719 Speaker 1: security clearance is worth something, and that's the point here. 940 00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:19,960 Speaker 1: And to have clapp or even recognizing that the rhetoric 941 00:55:20,040 --> 00:55:22,840 Speaker 1: of Brennan is so over the top is unbelievable. But 942 00:55:22,960 --> 00:55:25,320 Speaker 1: this isn't the first time that this has happened. Shawn 943 00:55:25,400 --> 00:55:30,200 Speaker 1: Bigley is a partner with Bigley run A LLP specializing 944 00:55:30,239 --> 00:55:34,440 Speaker 1: in federal security clearance defense. And you represent Adam Lovinger 945 00:55:34,880 --> 00:55:39,399 Speaker 1: who lost his security clearance after Stephen Helper complained about him, 946 00:55:40,040 --> 00:55:43,359 Speaker 1: and you wrote a op ed about your client. Why 947 00:55:43,360 --> 00:55:45,080 Speaker 1: don't I just let you tell our audience what you 948 00:55:45,560 --> 00:55:47,800 Speaker 1: found and what you said. Good to be with you, 949 00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:51,439 Speaker 1: that's right. I do represent Mr Lovinger. He's a long 950 00:55:51,520 --> 00:55:55,239 Speaker 1: time a Defense Department employee who is a very strong 951 00:55:55,280 --> 00:55:59,960 Speaker 1: supporter of the President and uh In. He complained numerous 952 00:56:00,120 --> 00:56:03,480 Speaker 1: times to his superiors, all of whom were Obama appointees 953 00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:07,160 Speaker 1: at the Pentagon about these egregious contracts that were being 954 00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:10,759 Speaker 1: awarded to Stefan Helper and also to a close friend 955 00:56:10,800 --> 00:56:14,879 Speaker 1: of the Clinton families. And subsequently several months go by 956 00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:19,439 Speaker 1: and his mysterious his security clearances mysteriously revoked, and he's 957 00:56:19,520 --> 00:56:22,400 Speaker 1: now sitting at home trying to figure out ways to 958 00:56:22,480 --> 00:56:25,319 Speaker 1: feed his family. All right, So now this is fascinating. 959 00:56:25,440 --> 00:56:28,440 Speaker 1: So when did this happen? What year? So the complaints 960 00:56:28,440 --> 00:56:31,359 Speaker 1: originally were filed in the fall of twenty sixteen, right 961 00:56:31,400 --> 00:56:35,279 Speaker 1: around the election cycle, and they were ignored, and uh 962 00:56:35,600 --> 00:56:38,800 Speaker 1: subsequent the administration comes in. He moves over to the 963 00:56:38,880 --> 00:56:41,919 Speaker 1: White House as a by name request from the new administration. 964 00:56:41,960 --> 00:56:45,040 Speaker 1: They had heard about his reputation and wanted him serving 965 00:56:45,080 --> 00:56:47,839 Speaker 1: in the White House. And by May one he had 966 00:56:47,880 --> 00:56:50,520 Speaker 1: been recalled to the Pentagon and his security clearance had 967 00:56:50,520 --> 00:56:52,480 Speaker 1: been stripped. You know, when you look at all the 968 00:56:52,600 --> 00:56:56,480 Speaker 1: FBI departures, for example, and the reasons why, whether there 969 00:56:56,520 --> 00:56:59,880 Speaker 1: are people are fired like James Comey, Andrew McCabe fired, 970 00:57:00,320 --> 00:57:04,240 Speaker 1: Peter Struck fired, then you've got the resignations. Lisa Paige, 971 00:57:04,320 --> 00:57:07,800 Speaker 1: she got out while she could. James Robecki, James Baker 972 00:57:08,560 --> 00:57:10,680 Speaker 1: uh and and others. And then you look at the 973 00:57:10,760 --> 00:57:12,879 Speaker 1: others in the d o J, the number of people 974 00:57:12,960 --> 00:57:15,400 Speaker 1: that have resigned. People aren't even beginning to pay attention 975 00:57:15,440 --> 00:57:18,320 Speaker 1: to any of this. But you've got a list between 976 00:57:18,360 --> 00:57:21,800 Speaker 1: the d o J and the FBI top people that 977 00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:25,960 Speaker 1: have either resigned, been fired, or demoted twice like Bruce Orr. 978 00:57:26,120 --> 00:57:30,480 Speaker 1: But the reality is, uh, these clearances are worth money 979 00:57:31,080 --> 00:57:33,720 Speaker 1: in the private sector. And I'm not even saying that anything. 980 00:57:33,800 --> 00:57:37,520 Speaker 1: The furious necessarily goes on, except it's all this that 981 00:57:37,880 --> 00:57:40,520 Speaker 1: all the same people all the time. Why is it 982 00:57:40,720 --> 00:57:44,240 Speaker 1: Comey is getting paid all this money from Lockheed Martin, 983 00:57:45,040 --> 00:57:47,760 Speaker 1: according to this book, compromised at a time when Mueller 984 00:57:47,880 --> 00:57:50,000 Speaker 1: is the FBI director. I mean these I mean, we 985 00:57:50,120 --> 00:57:53,920 Speaker 1: can keep running into the same group of people. Seems 986 00:57:53,960 --> 00:57:57,400 Speaker 1: to me like who you know matters in Washington, Oh, absolutely, 987 00:57:57,480 --> 00:57:59,320 Speaker 1: And I mean I think a lot of people outside 988 00:57:59,360 --> 00:58:02,560 Speaker 1: the Washington DC beltway may not understand that really a 989 00:58:02,640 --> 00:58:05,200 Speaker 1: security clearance is a meal ticket. It's the equivalent of 990 00:58:05,920 --> 00:58:08,520 Speaker 1: a professional license for a doctor or a lawyer, and 991 00:58:08,640 --> 00:58:10,680 Speaker 1: without it, you're not gonna work in the field in 992 00:58:10,720 --> 00:58:13,080 Speaker 1: which you practice. And so for somebody like a COMI 993 00:58:13,240 --> 00:58:16,000 Speaker 1: or a Brennan who's spent their career in government and 994 00:58:16,040 --> 00:58:19,360 Speaker 1: who's going to go on to lucrative uh consulting gigs 995 00:58:19,480 --> 00:58:23,280 Speaker 1: or sit on boards at various defense contractors. Without that clearance, 996 00:58:23,320 --> 00:58:25,680 Speaker 1: they're not as valuable. And the same thing the reverse 997 00:58:25,720 --> 00:58:28,840 Speaker 1: goes for somebody like Mr Lovinger. He stripped of his clearance, 998 00:58:28,880 --> 00:58:31,160 Speaker 1: he can no longer work, and now we're fighting that 999 00:58:31,280 --> 00:58:34,200 Speaker 1: on appeal, and meanwhile they are pulling out all the 1000 00:58:34,240 --> 00:58:36,520 Speaker 1: stops to make sure that he doesn't get his due process. 1001 00:58:36,560 --> 00:58:40,000 Speaker 1: It's really outrageous. Let's go into your original article how 1002 00:58:40,080 --> 00:58:43,840 Speaker 1: the Pentagon bank rolled an alleged spy inside the Trump 1003 00:58:43,920 --> 00:58:48,360 Speaker 1: campaign and other sort of tales. Um. Because you you 1004 00:58:48,680 --> 00:58:51,320 Speaker 1: literally right, you know chapter and firsts on this, I 1005 00:58:51,360 --> 00:58:55,120 Speaker 1: want you to explain it in detail. Sure, So back 1006 00:58:55,160 --> 00:58:59,680 Speaker 1: in Mr Lovinger started to notice that Mr Halper and 1007 00:58:59,760 --> 00:59:02,720 Speaker 1: others in this office, we're really getting a very very 1008 00:59:02,800 --> 00:59:06,480 Speaker 1: generous contracts to do what he perceived as very little. Uh. 1009 00:59:06,560 --> 00:59:08,960 Speaker 1: The contracts were kept very close to the vest. They 1010 00:59:09,000 --> 00:59:12,400 Speaker 1: were run by people who were of ardent Obama and 1011 00:59:12,480 --> 00:59:16,200 Speaker 1: Clinton supporters, including one of whom was a vocal anti Trumper, 1012 00:59:16,720 --> 00:59:18,640 Speaker 1: and he started raising issues and saying, look, you know 1013 00:59:18,720 --> 00:59:21,600 Speaker 1: the this is a perception of impropriety. What are these 1014 00:59:21,640 --> 00:59:24,120 Speaker 1: people doing for the money? These are taxpayer funds. Why 1015 00:59:24,200 --> 00:59:27,000 Speaker 1: are we bankrolling to the tune of millions of dollars 1016 00:59:27,120 --> 00:59:30,120 Speaker 1: people to go out and conduct research studies on things 1017 00:59:30,200 --> 00:59:32,480 Speaker 1: like whether or not there's enough coastal elites in the 1018 00:59:32,560 --> 00:59:37,760 Speaker 1: National security bureaucracy. I mean ridiculous, patently ridiculous subject matters 1019 00:59:37,840 --> 00:59:40,720 Speaker 1: that do nothing to inform anybody. And we're being paid 1020 00:59:40,840 --> 00:59:43,360 Speaker 1: hundreds of thousands, if not millions of dollars to perform 1021 00:59:43,480 --> 00:59:46,600 Speaker 1: this work. On top of that, he also said, here's 1022 00:59:46,640 --> 00:59:51,080 Speaker 1: a specific statute of specific federal law that prohibits contractors 1023 00:59:51,160 --> 00:59:54,200 Speaker 1: from being used to conduct foreign relations, which is precisely 1024 00:59:54,280 --> 00:59:58,000 Speaker 1: what he perceived them as doing. And he was completely ignored, 1025 00:59:58,080 --> 01:00:01,320 Speaker 1: completely shut down on multiple levels. Uh, he goes off 1026 01:00:01,360 --> 01:00:02,920 Speaker 1: to the White House and I think they viewed him 1027 01:00:02,920 --> 01:00:05,440 Speaker 1: as a threat there and essentially did whatever they had 1028 01:00:05,480 --> 01:00:07,280 Speaker 1: to do to to yank him back, strip him of 1029 01:00:07,360 --> 01:00:10,120 Speaker 1: his clearance, and shut him up. And you know, Sean, 1030 01:00:10,240 --> 01:00:12,600 Speaker 1: this is a real problem. It's not just Mr Lovinger, 1031 01:00:12,640 --> 01:00:15,560 Speaker 1: It's an epidemic across the government. I have people who 1032 01:00:15,720 --> 01:00:19,320 Speaker 1: I represent in the administration on multiple different levels, very 1033 01:00:19,360 --> 01:00:22,360 Speaker 1: senior folks all the way to lower level folks, and 1034 01:00:22,440 --> 01:00:25,360 Speaker 1: their experience is probably experiencing this problem right and left. 1035 01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:28,840 Speaker 1: It's a tool that the deep state is essentially weaponized. 1036 01:00:28,920 --> 01:00:31,600 Speaker 1: It's the low hanging fruit, if you will, to keep 1037 01:00:31,680 --> 01:00:34,280 Speaker 1: people out of government, to keep the president's appointees out 1038 01:00:34,280 --> 01:00:37,280 Speaker 1: who are going to effectuate his agenda. And it's something 1039 01:00:37,320 --> 01:00:39,240 Speaker 1: that they've been doing over and over. Now the people 1040 01:00:39,360 --> 01:00:42,080 Speaker 1: responsible because you wrote another great column on that the 1041 01:00:42,120 --> 01:00:45,440 Speaker 1: deep state is weaponized the vetting a trumpet appointees, and 1042 01:00:45,920 --> 01:00:49,640 Speaker 1: I know numerous people that have incredible qualifications, and it 1043 01:00:49,720 --> 01:00:53,080 Speaker 1: seems the only strike against them is that they recognize 1044 01:00:53,160 --> 01:00:56,960 Speaker 1: that there are either holdovers from the Obama administration or 1045 01:00:57,000 --> 01:00:59,200 Speaker 1: people that are at odds with the current administration that 1046 01:00:59,240 --> 01:01:02,520 Speaker 1: are inside the important jobs. Oh absolutely, and you know 1047 01:01:02,680 --> 01:01:04,720 Speaker 1: we're d D is the tip of the spear on this. 1048 01:01:04,800 --> 01:01:07,280 Speaker 1: I mean, let's be clear, there are a good half 1049 01:01:07,360 --> 01:01:10,280 Speaker 1: dozen folks at the Department of Defense who are actively 1050 01:01:10,480 --> 01:01:13,040 Speaker 1: out to thwart the president's agenda and who are using 1051 01:01:13,120 --> 01:01:15,440 Speaker 1: this process as the means to do it. But it's 1052 01:01:15,480 --> 01:01:18,760 Speaker 1: also happening in the State Department it's happening at Homeland Security, 1053 01:01:18,800 --> 01:01:21,400 Speaker 1: it's happening in a number of places government wide, and 1054 01:01:21,520 --> 01:01:24,560 Speaker 1: they're they're doing it in very sneaky, very technical ways 1055 01:01:24,760 --> 01:01:27,440 Speaker 1: that that they used to sort of keep people out. 1056 01:01:27,520 --> 01:01:30,720 Speaker 1: And you know, here's another irony to under Brennan. The 1057 01:01:30,840 --> 01:01:33,560 Speaker 1: CIA was one of the worst and remains one of 1058 01:01:33,640 --> 01:01:36,160 Speaker 1: the worst defenders as far as due process. I have 1059 01:01:36,360 --> 01:01:38,640 Speaker 1: people who have literally put their lives on the line 1060 01:01:39,080 --> 01:01:42,160 Speaker 1: for this country who have been frozen out on bogus 1061 01:01:42,240 --> 01:01:45,400 Speaker 1: security clearance concerns, one of whom has been sitting since 1062 01:01:46,400 --> 01:01:48,320 Speaker 1: and is now working to drive through a Chick fil 1063 01:01:48,320 --> 01:01:51,160 Speaker 1: A to make ends meet. So, you know, for him 1064 01:01:51,200 --> 01:01:54,200 Speaker 1: to turn around and whine about essentially him being mistreated 1065 01:01:54,280 --> 01:01:57,000 Speaker 1: is really ironic. Well let me go through because you 1066 01:01:57,120 --> 01:01:59,479 Speaker 1: went through all of this, our friend, Well, I gotta 1067 01:01:59,520 --> 01:02:01,280 Speaker 1: take a break. Ka, I'll ask you. My friend Rowan 1068 01:02:01,360 --> 01:02:03,240 Speaker 1: Scarborough had a great piece on this that we'll get 1069 01:02:03,280 --> 01:02:06,200 Speaker 1: to uh as well. Eight nine for one, Shawn is 1070 01:02:06,240 --> 01:02:08,040 Speaker 1: our toll free telephone number. You want to be a 1071 01:02:08,120 --> 01:02:11,120 Speaker 1: part of the program. And as we continue with Shawn Bigley, 1072 01:02:11,560 --> 01:02:14,680 Speaker 1: and by the way, he represents Adam Lovinger, he's the 1073 01:02:14,680 --> 01:02:18,000 Speaker 1: guy that lost his security clearance after Stefan Helper complained 1074 01:02:18,080 --> 01:02:21,720 Speaker 1: about him. Uh, you know, I read the piece your pieces, 1075 01:02:21,720 --> 01:02:23,680 Speaker 1: and then I also read Rowan Scarborough I've known a 1076 01:02:23,760 --> 01:02:26,320 Speaker 1: long time in respect a lot from the Washington Times, 1077 01:02:26,720 --> 01:02:30,400 Speaker 1: and he's pointing out your client, which, by the way, 1078 01:02:30,880 --> 01:02:35,120 Speaker 1: Pentagon analysts stripped of his security clearance by Obama appointed 1079 01:02:35,160 --> 01:02:40,160 Speaker 1: officials after he complained of questionable government contracts that Stefan 1080 01:02:40,240 --> 01:02:43,360 Speaker 1: Helper had. Now this is what over four hundred dollars 1081 01:02:43,440 --> 01:02:47,120 Speaker 1: which we're talking about. And anyway, Adam Lovinger, your client 1082 01:02:47,240 --> 01:02:49,680 Speaker 1: is a twelve year strategist at the Pentagon's Office of 1083 01:02:49,760 --> 01:02:53,320 Speaker 1: Net Assessment, and he complained to his bosses about these 1084 01:02:53,360 --> 01:02:58,080 Speaker 1: Helper contracts and uh, then they yanked his security clearance. 1085 01:02:58,160 --> 01:03:00,600 Speaker 1: How often has this happened that we don't hear about it? 1086 01:03:00,680 --> 01:03:04,400 Speaker 1: Maybe not a side profile, as say John Brennett. Yeah, 1087 01:03:04,520 --> 01:03:07,960 Speaker 1: it's it's definitely happening on a pretty consistent basis, not 1088 01:03:08,120 --> 01:03:11,120 Speaker 1: so much in the whistleblower retaliation context as it is 1089 01:03:11,200 --> 01:03:15,200 Speaker 1: in the political sphere. In other words, if you are 1090 01:03:15,320 --> 01:03:18,480 Speaker 1: somebody who identifies as a you know, supporter of the president, 1091 01:03:18,800 --> 01:03:21,520 Speaker 1: somebody who maybe the president is selected to fill a 1092 01:03:21,560 --> 01:03:25,640 Speaker 1: specific role. We've seen case after case where there are 1093 01:03:25,840 --> 01:03:30,000 Speaker 1: entrenched bureaucrats, many of them Obama holdovers, at various agencies, 1094 01:03:30,000 --> 01:03:32,720 Speaker 1: who are pulling out all the stops from a security 1095 01:03:32,760 --> 01:03:35,360 Speaker 1: in a vetting standpoint to prevent people from getting in. 1096 01:03:35,440 --> 01:03:37,760 Speaker 1: And I'll give you a couple of examples. We've had 1097 01:03:37,800 --> 01:03:41,959 Speaker 1: some agencies where they have essentially instituted a policy that says, 1098 01:03:42,000 --> 01:03:45,120 Speaker 1: we're not going to give what's called interim clearances anymore 1099 01:03:45,560 --> 01:03:48,000 Speaker 1: to political appointees. We're gonna give them all day long 1100 01:03:48,080 --> 01:03:50,440 Speaker 1: to to career officials, but we're not going to give 1101 01:03:50,480 --> 01:03:52,640 Speaker 1: them to people who the president appoints because we just 1102 01:03:52,720 --> 01:03:55,880 Speaker 1: don't trust them. We've had other agencies that have essentially, 1103 01:03:56,240 --> 01:03:59,520 Speaker 1: a year after somebody has been on boarded and started work, 1104 01:03:59,680 --> 01:04:02,560 Speaker 1: come act and said, you know what, that little minor 1105 01:04:02,920 --> 01:04:05,000 Speaker 1: thing that you self reported, maybe you had a d 1106 01:04:05,280 --> 01:04:07,640 Speaker 1: Y a few years ago, or some other minor thing 1107 01:04:07,720 --> 01:04:09,520 Speaker 1: that we didn't think was the problem when we hired you, 1108 01:04:09,720 --> 01:04:11,360 Speaker 1: Now it's an issue. So now we're going to kick 1109 01:04:11,400 --> 01:04:13,840 Speaker 1: you out to the curb. So it's that kind of 1110 01:04:13,920 --> 01:04:16,760 Speaker 1: behavior that's happening over and over and again, and really 1111 01:04:16,840 --> 01:04:20,280 Speaker 1: the only conclusion that you can draw on a systemic level, 1112 01:04:20,400 --> 01:04:23,680 Speaker 1: is that this is a coordinated effort to essentially prevent 1113 01:04:23,800 --> 01:04:27,720 Speaker 1: the president from effectuating his policy agenda, because as we know, 1114 01:04:28,600 --> 01:04:30,240 Speaker 1: you can't, you can't. You don't have people to execute 1115 01:04:30,280 --> 01:04:32,240 Speaker 1: the policy, you can't execute it. And I think that's 1116 01:04:32,400 --> 01:04:35,240 Speaker 1: precisely what the what the idea is. All right, Seawan Bigley, 1117 01:04:35,760 --> 01:04:38,000 Speaker 1: keep up the good work, will continue to follow the story, 1118 01:04:38,120 --> 01:04:41,640 Speaker 1: and we're going to continue to investigate the investigators and 1119 01:04:41,800 --> 01:04:45,160 Speaker 1: follow the money, which now is becoming more interesting by 1120 01:04:45,240 --> 01:04:49,560 Speaker 1: the day. One Shawn toll Free telephone number, News round Up, 1121 01:04:49,600 --> 01:04:53,040 Speaker 1: Information Overload is next, and then we'll check in with 1122 01:04:53,120 --> 01:04:56,760 Speaker 1: Greg and Sarah straight ahead. Regret essentially accusing the president 1123 01:04:56,800 --> 01:04:58,680 Speaker 1: of treason? Do you do you regret some of the 1124 01:04:58,800 --> 01:05:02,120 Speaker 1: things you have said. I called his behavior treason, which 1125 01:05:02,200 --> 01:05:04,760 Speaker 1: is to betray one's trust and to aiden at the enemy. 1126 01:05:04,800 --> 01:05:07,840 Speaker 1: And I stand very much by that claim. You're the 1127 01:05:07,920 --> 01:05:11,000 Speaker 1: former CIA director accusing the sitting president United States. It's 1128 01:05:11,040 --> 01:05:13,200 Speaker 1: not a private citizen. A lot of people here, the 1129 01:05:13,240 --> 01:05:16,440 Speaker 1: former CIA director accusing the sitting president United States of treason. 1130 01:05:16,600 --> 01:05:20,480 Speaker 1: That's that's monument that's a monumental accusation. Well, I think 1131 01:05:20,640 --> 01:05:22,680 Speaker 1: these are abnormal times, and I think a lot of 1132 01:05:22,720 --> 01:05:25,439 Speaker 1: people have spoken out against what Mr Trump has done, 1133 01:05:25,680 --> 01:05:28,880 Speaker 1: and maybe it's my my warning training as an intelligence professional, 1134 01:05:29,160 --> 01:05:31,320 Speaker 1: I have seen the lights blinking red in terms of 1135 01:05:31,400 --> 01:05:33,840 Speaker 1: what Mr Trump has done and is doing, and is 1136 01:05:33,880 --> 01:05:36,560 Speaker 1: bringing this country down on the global stage, and he's 1137 01:05:36,640 --> 01:05:40,200 Speaker 1: fueling and feeding divisiveness within our country. Donald Trump has 1138 01:05:40,680 --> 01:05:44,760 Speaker 1: badly sullied the reputation of the office of the presidency 1139 01:05:45,400 --> 01:05:50,800 Speaker 1: with his invective, with his constant um disregard. I think 1140 01:05:50,920 --> 01:05:54,680 Speaker 1: for even decency, he is I think the most divisive 1141 01:05:54,760 --> 01:05:58,080 Speaker 1: president we've ever had in the oval office. He is 1142 01:05:58,400 --> 01:06:03,520 Speaker 1: feeding and fueling hatred and animosity and misunderstandings among Americans. 1143 01:06:03,720 --> 01:06:05,400 Speaker 1: I think there's a big question, first of all, in 1144 01:06:05,560 --> 01:06:08,400 Speaker 1: terms of those who are on Mr Trump's National security team, 1145 01:06:08,600 --> 01:06:11,840 Speaker 1: whether they can continue to serve in good conscience an 1146 01:06:11,840 --> 01:06:15,360 Speaker 1: individual who basically betrayed his nation. What Mr Trump did 1147 01:06:15,440 --> 01:06:19,080 Speaker 1: yesterday was to betray the women men of the FBI, 1148 01:06:19,240 --> 01:06:21,200 Speaker 1: the c I, A, N s A, and others. I 1149 01:06:21,280 --> 01:06:23,840 Speaker 1: think he's afraid of the President of Russia. Why well, 1150 01:06:24,440 --> 01:06:26,760 Speaker 1: I think one can speculate as to why that the 1151 01:06:26,800 --> 01:06:29,640 Speaker 1: Russians may have something on him. Personally that they could 1152 01:06:29,640 --> 01:06:31,840 Speaker 1: always roll out and make his life more difficult. Mr 1153 01:06:31,880 --> 01:06:34,800 Speaker 1: Trump continues to have his ignorance of the facts, the 1154 01:06:34,920 --> 01:06:39,280 Speaker 1: willful disregard of them again just to follow through on 1155 01:06:39,600 --> 01:06:45,160 Speaker 1: these campaign promises that really were very flawed. I and 1156 01:06:45,440 --> 01:06:49,640 Speaker 1: so many other former Nascurity officials are speaking out because 1157 01:06:49,760 --> 01:06:56,080 Speaker 1: of the abnormal and aberrant behavior of Mr Trump. This 1158 01:06:56,240 --> 01:07:00,520 Speaker 1: is a very large and painful national kidney Stone relief. 1159 01:07:00,560 --> 01:07:06,360 Speaker 1: We feel his rhetoric is so outrageous, so over the top, 1160 01:07:06,840 --> 01:07:12,240 Speaker 1: so absolutely apt and you know, rooted in insanity and politics. 1161 01:07:12,600 --> 01:07:16,760 Speaker 1: It's so personally divisive. This is a former CIA director, 1162 01:07:17,040 --> 01:07:20,640 Speaker 1: former communist we ever got this position is something we 1163 01:07:20,920 --> 01:07:24,040 Speaker 1: really need to examine and to listen to this rhetoric 1164 01:07:24,240 --> 01:07:28,400 Speaker 1: day in and day out, and this absolutely ridiculous argument 1165 01:07:28,520 --> 01:07:33,480 Speaker 1: that somehow he has a constitutional right to a lifelong 1166 01:07:33,720 --> 01:07:37,520 Speaker 1: actual lifelong access UH as it relates to a security 1167 01:07:37,640 --> 01:07:42,680 Speaker 1: clearance is absolutely false. Now we have gone over in 1168 01:07:42,800 --> 01:07:47,720 Speaker 1: great specificity what the CIA itself even mandates in terms 1169 01:07:47,800 --> 01:07:50,360 Speaker 1: of their rules if he's not acting The only way 1170 01:07:50,400 --> 01:07:52,960 Speaker 1: he gets to keep his clearance if he's acting in 1171 01:07:53,040 --> 01:07:57,680 Speaker 1: a manner consistent with a current CIA employee, which he's 1172 01:07:57,760 --> 01:08:00,600 Speaker 1: not doing. Never mind all of this, it's a patently 1173 01:08:00,600 --> 01:08:04,280 Speaker 1: absurd argument about the First Amendment. A friend, Greg Jared, 1174 01:08:04,360 --> 01:08:08,160 Speaker 1: pointed out the U. S. Supreme Court case Navy v. Egan, 1175 01:08:08,280 --> 01:08:11,440 Speaker 1: where a president has the authority to provoke any clearance 1176 01:08:11,600 --> 01:08:14,000 Speaker 1: with or without a stated reason, and the idea that 1177 01:08:14,080 --> 01:08:16,680 Speaker 1: this is about free speech. No, this guy has more 1178 01:08:16,760 --> 01:08:19,080 Speaker 1: speech than he's ever had in his life. Is more 1179 01:08:19,160 --> 01:08:21,200 Speaker 1: notoriety that he's ever had in his life. He has 1180 01:08:21,280 --> 01:08:23,560 Speaker 1: more platforms than he's ever had in his life to 1181 01:08:23,640 --> 01:08:27,000 Speaker 1: spew his hate, his politics, his vitriol, and he's doing 1182 01:08:27,120 --> 01:08:30,280 Speaker 1: so freely every day. Nobody's stopping him. But to have 1183 01:08:30,439 --> 01:08:34,040 Speaker 1: a security clearance is very, very different. Now we have 1184 01:08:34,400 --> 01:08:36,880 Speaker 1: Greg Jarrett three weeks and running now number one New 1185 01:08:36,960 --> 01:08:39,840 Speaker 1: York Times bestseller his book, which is the Russian Hoax, 1186 01:08:39,920 --> 01:08:43,519 Speaker 1: The Illicit Scheme to clear Hillary Clinton and framed Donald Trump, 1187 01:08:43,840 --> 01:08:46,679 Speaker 1: and Sarah Carter is with us Fox News Investigated reporter 1188 01:08:46,760 --> 01:08:49,160 Speaker 1: and contributor, and Sarah, by the way, is even breaking 1189 01:08:49,200 --> 01:08:53,240 Speaker 1: more news that in the summer, then FBI Director James 1190 01:08:53,320 --> 01:08:57,120 Speaker 1: Comey had been advised that former Senate Majority Leader Harry 1191 01:08:57,200 --> 01:08:59,679 Speaker 1: Reid would be sending him a letter which he did send, 1192 01:09:00,120 --> 01:09:04,160 Speaker 1: asking to investigate allegations that President Trump's campaign had colluded 1193 01:09:04,200 --> 01:09:07,800 Speaker 1: with Russia, according to documents now obtained by Congress, and 1194 01:09:07,880 --> 01:09:11,559 Speaker 1: this was written several days after John Brennan had met 1195 01:09:11,640 --> 01:09:15,320 Speaker 1: with Harry Reid. And by the way, most investigators believe 1196 01:09:15,400 --> 01:09:18,600 Speaker 1: that Brennan privately brief read about the dossier. It's in 1197 01:09:18,720 --> 01:09:20,479 Speaker 1: Gregg's book, by the way, and we'll get to whether 1198 01:09:20,560 --> 01:09:22,400 Speaker 1: or not that had actually happened. Sara, why don't you 1199 01:09:22,439 --> 01:09:24,559 Speaker 1: give us more details and why that would be relevant 1200 01:09:24,600 --> 01:09:27,400 Speaker 1: The timing of the heads up the comby had, well, 1201 01:09:27,479 --> 01:09:31,160 Speaker 1: it was extraordinarily relevant, Shine because it would tell us 1202 01:09:31,320 --> 01:09:35,040 Speaker 1: whether or not Brennan the CIA was working with the 1203 01:09:35,240 --> 01:09:39,040 Speaker 1: FBI during that summer with regard to the dossier. And 1204 01:09:39,080 --> 01:09:41,439 Speaker 1: it seems like it would make common sense because if 1205 01:09:41,520 --> 01:09:44,280 Speaker 1: we think about it in terms of of the dossier, 1206 01:09:44,479 --> 01:09:49,080 Speaker 1: this is a foreign of spy Christopher Steele, who put 1207 01:09:49,160 --> 01:09:52,960 Speaker 1: together these sixteen part memos that compiled the dossier, and 1208 01:09:53,280 --> 01:09:57,680 Speaker 1: it would be extraordinary if the FBI was investigating this 1209 01:09:57,800 --> 01:10:01,160 Speaker 1: without making contact with the CIA. What makes this important 1210 01:10:01,280 --> 01:10:03,720 Speaker 1: is the fact that Brennan had briefed the Gang of 1211 01:10:03,800 --> 01:10:06,560 Speaker 1: Eight that summer and then Reid had called him in 1212 01:10:06,760 --> 01:10:12,160 Speaker 1: for basically a private meeting on August thousand and sixteen, 1213 01:10:12,360 --> 01:10:15,559 Speaker 1: so he met with Read. Two days later, a letter 1214 01:10:15,680 --> 01:10:18,840 Speaker 1: goes to Komy. Now, documents that have been obtained by 1215 01:10:18,920 --> 01:10:22,639 Speaker 1: Congress show that Comy was expecting this letter even before 1216 01:10:22,720 --> 01:10:25,320 Speaker 1: he received it. He goes, so here at Brennan is 1217 01:10:25,400 --> 01:10:28,679 Speaker 1: now talking to Read. This is on August. Two days later. 1218 01:10:28,800 --> 01:10:31,679 Speaker 1: Read gets this letter right, sends this letter to Coomy. 1219 01:10:31,880 --> 01:10:34,800 Speaker 1: Two days after the letter goes to Komy, it gets 1220 01:10:34,920 --> 01:10:38,479 Speaker 1: leaked to the New York Times and on August twenty nine, 1221 01:10:38,840 --> 01:10:41,840 Speaker 1: and then the story comes out. It flushes out even more. 1222 01:10:42,000 --> 01:10:45,160 Speaker 1: This is right before the election where they're accusing Trump 1223 01:10:45,240 --> 01:10:47,880 Speaker 1: and people in his campaign of colluding with Russia. And 1224 01:10:48,040 --> 01:10:50,759 Speaker 1: I think there's a lot of concern among congressional officials. 1225 01:10:50,840 --> 01:10:53,599 Speaker 1: We know that Judicial Watch now has sued for all 1226 01:10:53,680 --> 01:10:56,719 Speaker 1: of the communications between Brennan and Coomy, I mean Brennan 1227 01:10:56,800 --> 01:10:59,519 Speaker 1: and Harry Reid, and they want to know what those 1228 01:10:59,560 --> 01:11:02,760 Speaker 1: connects were, what his connections were with Comey as well, 1229 01:11:03,000 --> 01:11:06,479 Speaker 1: and how this all evolved. Were all these agencies in 1230 01:11:06,600 --> 01:11:09,240 Speaker 1: collusion with each other? Were they involved with the d 1231 01:11:09,360 --> 01:11:12,720 Speaker 1: o J? Was the CIA involved? In the FBI's investigation. 1232 01:11:12,920 --> 01:11:15,439 Speaker 1: And I think that's going to be very telling how 1233 01:11:15,600 --> 01:11:19,479 Speaker 1: far these people were involved in in this alleged Russia 1234 01:11:19,600 --> 01:11:22,360 Speaker 1: Trump collusion case. Well, and then it goes to pushes 1235 01:11:22,400 --> 01:11:24,800 Speaker 1: the date back earlier. And then remember this is the 1236 01:11:25,000 --> 01:11:29,639 Speaker 1: July or the summer of and remember we now believe 1237 01:11:29,680 --> 01:11:32,840 Speaker 1: it all started even before they ended the Clinton investigation. 1238 01:11:32,920 --> 01:11:35,360 Speaker 1: As evidence points out, Greg, you write about this this 1239 01:11:35,520 --> 01:11:38,960 Speaker 1: Brennan Harry Read meeting in your book. I want to 1240 01:11:39,160 --> 01:11:42,360 Speaker 1: go over it specifically. We know that meeting took place, correct, Yes, 1241 01:11:42,439 --> 01:11:45,880 Speaker 1: it's actually on page one of my book. They meet 1242 01:11:45,960 --> 01:11:50,320 Speaker 1: on the Harry Read sends out a letter's James Commy 1243 01:11:50,400 --> 01:11:55,160 Speaker 1: on the seven in an obvious attempt to influence the election. 1244 01:11:56,120 --> 01:12:00,760 Speaker 1: He claims Trump Russia collusion and the purpose SIY did this, 1245 01:12:01,120 --> 01:12:04,800 Speaker 1: Brennan and Read to leak it to the media to 1246 01:12:05,400 --> 01:12:11,360 Speaker 1: h harm President or then Canada Trump in his election bid. 1247 01:12:11,760 --> 01:12:16,000 Speaker 1: And so they it didn't work, only the Washington Post 1248 01:12:16,280 --> 01:12:19,719 Speaker 1: picked up on it. And so then Harry Read doubles 1249 01:12:19,760 --> 01:12:22,240 Speaker 1: down and does it again. He says another letter about 1250 01:12:22,280 --> 01:12:26,439 Speaker 1: a month later, just before the election, to harm Trump. Uh, 1251 01:12:26,640 --> 01:12:31,719 Speaker 1: and once again he alleges Trump Russian collusion, and John Brennan, 1252 01:12:31,800 --> 01:12:34,720 Speaker 1: as I identify in the book, was the instigator. He 1253 01:12:34,800 --> 01:12:40,360 Speaker 1: did more than anyone to propagate and promulgate the Russia hoax. 1254 01:12:40,560 --> 01:12:44,120 Speaker 1: He's the guy who was peddling this false dossier, and 1255 01:12:44,720 --> 01:12:47,920 Speaker 1: James Comey was in on it all along. I tweeted 1256 01:12:48,000 --> 01:12:52,000 Speaker 1: out earlier today that it it is always amusing when 1257 01:12:52,080 --> 01:12:55,719 Speaker 1: Commy weighs in as he did over the weekend about 1258 01:12:56,280 --> 01:12:59,519 Speaker 1: lies and lying people, because this is a guy who 1259 01:12:59,640 --> 01:13:02,519 Speaker 1: surmizes about it in the book, and yet he's the 1260 01:13:02,600 --> 01:13:06,759 Speaker 1: guy who basically conjured out of thin air the Russia 1261 01:13:06,800 --> 01:13:10,880 Speaker 1: hoax all by himself, with some help from John Brennan, 1262 01:13:11,000 --> 01:13:15,240 Speaker 1: James Clapper, Peter Struck, Lisa Page, and others. As I 1263 01:13:15,360 --> 01:13:19,120 Speaker 1: explained in the book, So Brennan is not the kind 1264 01:13:19,160 --> 01:13:22,960 Speaker 1: of person who should ever be close to classified information. 1265 01:13:23,080 --> 01:13:26,519 Speaker 1: The President was correct in making sure that he had 1266 01:13:26,720 --> 01:13:31,040 Speaker 1: his classification revoked, and so to Comey and all of 1267 01:13:31,120 --> 01:13:33,360 Speaker 1: the other people I just named, they should never be 1268 01:13:33,560 --> 01:13:37,360 Speaker 1: anywhere near classified information. You know, look at all the 1269 01:13:37,439 --> 01:13:42,479 Speaker 1: people Sarah call me fired, McKay fired, Struck fired, Page resigns, 1270 01:13:42,520 --> 01:13:48,080 Speaker 1: Rebicki resigns, Baker resigns, uh and and other FBI departures 1271 01:13:48,120 --> 01:13:50,960 Speaker 1: that have taken place that are are under scrutiny at 1272 01:13:51,000 --> 01:13:54,320 Speaker 1: this particular time. Then you got you know, Sally Yates 1273 01:13:54,400 --> 01:13:58,080 Speaker 1: fired Bruce or demoted twice. And then you know, all told, 1274 01:13:58,120 --> 01:14:00,519 Speaker 1: between the FBI and the d o J, twenty five 1275 01:14:00,640 --> 01:14:05,040 Speaker 1: people resign, fired, or demoted over all of this, uh, 1276 01:14:05,200 --> 01:14:07,240 Speaker 1: And then you have you know, the news media still 1277 01:14:07,320 --> 01:14:10,280 Speaker 1: ignores the insanity that has gone on here at the 1278 01:14:10,360 --> 01:14:12,960 Speaker 1: top levels of the FBI and the do o J. 1279 01:14:13,520 --> 01:14:17,280 Speaker 1: I think it's incredible, Sean that this is possibly one 1280 01:14:17,320 --> 01:14:21,519 Speaker 1: of the biggest scandals in modern political history, and the 1281 01:14:22,360 --> 01:14:26,600 Speaker 1: mainstream media and audiences that watch the mainstream media or 1282 01:14:26,720 --> 01:14:30,960 Speaker 1: read the mainstream media are really blinded by what happened 1283 01:14:31,000 --> 01:14:33,680 Speaker 1: because the information is not getting out there. This is 1284 01:14:33,800 --> 01:14:37,960 Speaker 1: so important. It sits on everything our Constitution stands for 1285 01:14:38,200 --> 01:14:41,480 Speaker 1: because it talks about the weaponizing of our intelligence community, 1286 01:14:41,800 --> 01:14:45,880 Speaker 1: our privacy rights, UH, the ability for people within the 1287 01:14:46,080 --> 01:14:50,320 Speaker 1: government to try to unseat a duly elected president. You 1288 01:14:50,439 --> 01:14:52,439 Speaker 1: can't get a story bigger than this. And just to 1289 01:14:52,600 --> 01:14:55,360 Speaker 1: clarify on one thing, because in my story, I did 1290 01:14:55,479 --> 01:14:58,960 Speaker 1: reach out to John Brennan numerous times, and I did 1291 01:14:59,040 --> 01:15:03,360 Speaker 1: get a response, this guy Shapiro, Yes, his former chief 1292 01:15:03,400 --> 01:15:07,000 Speaker 1: of staff. Nick Shapiro responded on behalf of Brennan. This 1293 01:15:07,200 --> 01:15:09,760 Speaker 1: was his former chief of staff at the CIA, and 1294 01:15:10,160 --> 01:15:14,040 Speaker 1: denied any allegation suggesting that he knew about the dossier 1295 01:15:14,560 --> 01:15:18,960 Speaker 1: before December two thousand sixteen. The contents of the dossier. Now, 1296 01:15:19,040 --> 01:15:21,200 Speaker 1: when I pushed on it and said, look, you know 1297 01:15:21,400 --> 01:15:24,400 Speaker 1: I knew about the dossier during that summer. There were 1298 01:15:24,439 --> 01:15:27,679 Speaker 1: rumors all over Washington, d C. That somebody was peddling 1299 01:15:27,840 --> 01:15:31,400 Speaker 1: some kind of information about a report of Trump in Russia. 1300 01:15:31,640 --> 01:15:33,200 Speaker 1: How could I know about it? In the head of 1301 01:15:33,240 --> 01:15:35,599 Speaker 1: the CIA not know about it? And then he went 1302 01:15:35,640 --> 01:15:38,840 Speaker 1: back and said, well, he had heard about its existence, 1303 01:15:38,960 --> 01:15:43,400 Speaker 1: but hadn't seen the contents. Okay, So he didn't bring 1304 01:15:43,520 --> 01:15:46,080 Speaker 1: this up with Harry Reid. Is that what he's claiming. 1305 01:15:46,560 --> 01:15:48,880 Speaker 1: That's what he's claiming. He is claiming that he did. 1306 01:15:49,080 --> 01:15:52,160 Speaker 1: How many days after after he met with Harry Reid, 1307 01:15:52,200 --> 01:15:54,880 Speaker 1: did read send call me the memo or the letter? 1308 01:15:54,960 --> 01:15:58,360 Speaker 1: Abolutely he said that he had asked him to brief him. 1309 01:15:58,880 --> 01:16:02,000 Speaker 1: Reid had asked him per mission to basically put in 1310 01:16:02,160 --> 01:16:04,960 Speaker 1: his letter the contents of the briefing that he gave 1311 01:16:05,040 --> 01:16:07,400 Speaker 1: to the Gang of Eight on Russia, uh and that 1312 01:16:07,760 --> 01:16:12,000 Speaker 1: he had denied Read that that I guess that permission 1313 01:16:12,200 --> 01:16:14,160 Speaker 1: to put the contents of what he had briefed the 1314 01:16:14,200 --> 01:16:17,560 Speaker 1: Gang of Eight on. But Reid had sent the letter anyways, 1315 01:16:18,160 --> 01:16:21,200 Speaker 1: regarding whatever he knew about the dossier, don't we have 1316 01:16:21,320 --> 01:16:24,560 Speaker 1: evidence to that that Brennan was involved in spreading this 1317 01:16:24,720 --> 01:16:28,640 Speaker 1: false dossier information on the media And according to sources, 1318 01:16:29,040 --> 01:16:33,759 Speaker 1: Brennan was actually involved in spreading this dossier and rumors 1319 01:16:33,800 --> 01:16:37,479 Speaker 1: about this dossier. Now, remember this is Washington, d c. 1320 01:16:37,840 --> 01:16:39,880 Speaker 1: And people say a lot of things. That's why I 1321 01:16:40,000 --> 01:16:42,680 Speaker 1: reached out to Brennan personally. Now we have Brennan on 1322 01:16:42,760 --> 01:16:45,640 Speaker 1: the record saying this. But what we don't have is 1323 01:16:45,720 --> 01:16:48,880 Speaker 1: all of the communications which the CIA has denied and 1324 01:16:48,960 --> 01:16:52,320 Speaker 1: they probably will deny on a national security basis to 1325 01:16:52,960 --> 01:16:55,920 Speaker 1: that were requested by Judicial Watch, which would be those 1326 01:16:55,960 --> 01:17:01,679 Speaker 1: communications between Brennan and Read, between Brennan and Homey, between 1327 01:17:01,920 --> 01:17:04,639 Speaker 1: Come and Read. That would be interesting to see as well, 1328 01:17:04,960 --> 01:17:08,439 Speaker 1: because there is a lot of suspicion that when he 1329 01:17:08,600 --> 01:17:12,960 Speaker 1: had that briefing with Read on August that the contents 1330 01:17:13,040 --> 01:17:17,320 Speaker 1: of the dossier were discussed and Comey was well aware 1331 01:17:17,640 --> 01:17:20,240 Speaker 1: that a letter would be coming from Read So it 1332 01:17:20,320 --> 01:17:23,080 Speaker 1: appeared that they all knew what was coming down the pike, 1333 01:17:23,479 --> 01:17:25,920 Speaker 1: and it appeared that they all knew that it was 1334 01:17:26,040 --> 01:17:29,479 Speaker 1: related to this jossier. All right, let me take a break. 1335 01:17:29,520 --> 01:17:31,679 Speaker 1: We'll come back more with Sarah Carter. We'll have full 1336 01:17:31,720 --> 01:17:34,800 Speaker 1: coverage of this tonight and the reasons laid out in 1337 01:17:34,960 --> 01:17:38,879 Speaker 1: specific detail why Brennan does not deserve a security clearance 1338 01:17:39,280 --> 01:17:41,639 Speaker 1: and by the way, neither do all these other fired 1339 01:17:41,960 --> 01:17:47,160 Speaker 1: UH former officials. And as we continue, Gregg Jarrett number 1340 01:17:47,200 --> 01:17:49,960 Speaker 1: one New York Times bestselling author The Russian Hoax, The 1341 01:17:49,960 --> 01:17:53,040 Speaker 1: Illicit Scheme to Claire Hillary Clinton Frame Donald Trump, three 1342 01:17:53,120 --> 01:17:54,960 Speaker 1: weeks in running, now number one on the New York 1343 01:17:55,000 --> 01:17:59,479 Speaker 1: Times list. Sarah Carter, Fox News contributor, investigative reporter. Sarah 1344 01:17:59,520 --> 01:18:01,880 Speaker 1: has a news story. Let me go back to what 1345 01:18:02,120 --> 01:18:06,280 Speaker 1: Brennan knew and did and Greg if so, he's meeting 1346 01:18:06,320 --> 01:18:09,639 Speaker 1: with Harry Reid in late in August, right, we believe, 1347 01:18:10,160 --> 01:18:14,080 Speaker 1: and Harry Reid gets the details. August, what do we 1348 01:18:14,280 --> 01:18:17,920 Speaker 1: know about Director Brennan's briefing that it had taken place 1349 01:18:18,000 --> 01:18:21,840 Speaker 1: just a couple of days prior UH to that. And similarly, 1350 01:18:21,920 --> 01:18:24,400 Speaker 1: what do we know about Brennan using the dossier to 1351 01:18:24,479 --> 01:18:29,240 Speaker 1: disseminate false information. Well, he clearly had the dossier in 1352 01:18:29,360 --> 01:18:32,600 Speaker 1: his possession, he admits when he testified, and this is 1353 01:18:32,720 --> 01:18:36,840 Speaker 1: also in my book. Um, when he testified before Congress, 1354 01:18:37,120 --> 01:18:43,520 Speaker 1: he said he knew of Trump Russia connections and conspiracy inclusion, 1355 01:18:44,040 --> 01:18:46,559 Speaker 1: and he knew that in the summer of two thousand 1356 01:18:46,640 --> 01:18:50,000 Speaker 1: and sixteen. So there's no question that he knew about that. 1357 01:18:50,240 --> 01:18:53,760 Speaker 1: That's documented in my book. It's well sourced, and it's 1358 01:18:53,880 --> 01:18:57,560 Speaker 1: in fact his under oath testimony. So he meets with 1359 01:18:57,680 --> 01:19:01,880 Speaker 1: Harry Reid in late August, and it's no coincidence. It 1360 01:19:02,040 --> 01:19:05,800 Speaker 1: read sends out a letter to James Comey. It was 1361 01:19:05,840 --> 01:19:09,760 Speaker 1: all a con job. They both knew that. On the 1362 01:19:09,920 --> 01:19:14,000 Speaker 1: thirty one of July, Comey had already launched officially by 1363 01:19:14,080 --> 01:19:17,880 Speaker 1: signing papers under the name of Peter Struck, the Trump 1364 01:19:18,000 --> 01:19:21,439 Speaker 1: Russia collusion case, but the media didn't know it. So 1365 01:19:21,600 --> 01:19:24,439 Speaker 1: they were looking for an excuse to let the media 1366 01:19:24,520 --> 01:19:27,799 Speaker 1: know about it, to run with it, to harm Trump 1367 01:19:27,880 --> 01:19:31,400 Speaker 1: in the election and help Hillary Clinton. So Harry Reid 1368 01:19:31,920 --> 01:19:36,800 Speaker 1: leaks his letter alleging Trump Russia collusion the Washington Play. 1369 01:19:36,840 --> 01:19:39,040 Speaker 1: He's never gonna He's never going to tell the truth either, 1370 01:19:39,160 --> 01:19:41,320 Speaker 1: because no, of course not. He has a long and 1371 01:19:41,439 --> 01:19:44,560 Speaker 1: distinguished history of lies. He's one of the most prodigious, 1372 01:19:44,600 --> 01:19:49,080 Speaker 1: prolific liars in all of Congress. Let me give let's 1373 01:19:49,080 --> 01:19:50,760 Speaker 1: Sarah have the last word only because we're running out 1374 01:19:50,760 --> 01:19:52,760 Speaker 1: of time. Both of you will join us on Hannity tonight, 1375 01:19:52,920 --> 01:19:54,760 Speaker 1: but I want to make sure we get Sarah's last 1376 01:19:54,760 --> 01:19:57,720 Speaker 1: words in here. Sarah, Well, I think there's there's very 1377 01:19:57,960 --> 01:20:00,360 Speaker 1: there's a lot of concern here. What you need to 1378 01:20:00,400 --> 01:20:03,520 Speaker 1: find out, Sean, is how deep were the other agencies 1379 01:20:03,680 --> 01:20:09,160 Speaker 1: involved in this investigation into President Trump, What were their actions, 1380 01:20:09,280 --> 01:20:12,479 Speaker 1: what took place between them? What was the information shared 1381 01:20:12,520 --> 01:20:15,240 Speaker 1: between the FBI and c I A. I think that's 1382 01:20:15,360 --> 01:20:17,439 Speaker 1: very important. I think that's very telling, and I think 1383 01:20:17,479 --> 01:20:20,320 Speaker 1: that direction Congress is going to take right now. All right, 1384 01:20:20,400 --> 01:20:22,880 Speaker 1: thank you both of being with us, Sarah, Greg. We'll 1385 01:20:22,920 --> 01:20:26,120 Speaker 1: have more details tonight quick break. Your calls are next. 1386 01:20:26,360 --> 01:20:28,360 Speaker 1: You know, it's amazing. I think we've done a better 1387 01:20:28,479 --> 01:20:31,280 Speaker 1: job on TV. And maybe it's just because you can 1388 01:20:31,439 --> 01:20:34,760 Speaker 1: see it. But the day to day to day to day, 1389 01:20:35,040 --> 01:20:38,280 Speaker 1: issue to issue to issue the fame moral outrage of 1390 01:20:38,439 --> 01:20:42,360 Speaker 1: the day. Whether it's Russia, Russia, Russia, or Paul Manaford 1391 01:20:42,479 --> 01:20:45,960 Speaker 1: or Mrosa, it doesn't matter. I mean, it is literally 1392 01:20:46,120 --> 01:20:48,040 Speaker 1: issue to issue to issue. The one thing they don't 1393 01:20:48,120 --> 01:20:51,200 Speaker 1: do is a report on the biggest abusive power scandal 1394 01:20:51,800 --> 01:20:54,400 Speaker 1: in history. And all these FBI and d o J 1395 01:20:54,600 --> 01:21:00,200 Speaker 1: officials that abused power and we're fired or resigned or 1396 01:21:00,840 --> 01:21:04,000 Speaker 1: were demoted, and there's a ton of them, and then 1397 01:21:04,040 --> 01:21:07,519 Speaker 1: they sit so they're feigning outrage. Now Brennan lost the 1398 01:21:07,600 --> 01:21:12,120 Speaker 1: security clearance. I mean, you watch this guy. He is totally, utterly, 1399 01:21:12,280 --> 01:21:16,880 Speaker 1: completely unhinged. How this man ever became the CIA director 1400 01:21:17,000 --> 01:21:20,000 Speaker 1: is something we've got to ask the question. And all 1401 01:21:20,080 --> 01:21:21,800 Speaker 1: these people, all of a sudden, you get fired, You 1402 01:21:21,840 --> 01:21:24,880 Speaker 1: get to keep your security clearance. The purpose of keeping 1403 01:21:25,000 --> 01:21:27,880 Speaker 1: your clearance, just so you know, is if we ever 1404 01:21:28,040 --> 01:21:31,560 Speaker 1: wanted to, you know, to bring back some people for 1405 01:21:32,000 --> 01:21:36,479 Speaker 1: additional insight into the issues of the day. You lose 1406 01:21:36,680 --> 01:21:41,400 Speaker 1: that privilege. It is not freedom of speech being squashed, 1407 01:21:41,439 --> 01:21:44,640 Speaker 1: as the media's portraying this and that Brennan is a 1408 01:21:44,760 --> 01:21:49,240 Speaker 1: great victim here. He's not. He earned the removal of 1409 01:21:49,320 --> 01:21:51,720 Speaker 1: his security clearance and all these other people did too. 1410 01:21:52,280 --> 01:21:55,120 Speaker 1: Let's let's just remind you how how this media in 1411 01:21:55,160 --> 01:21:57,680 Speaker 1: this country works on any given day. This is a 1412 01:21:57,920 --> 01:22:03,960 Speaker 1: dictatorial exercise of power that should frighten and call on 1413 01:22:04,200 --> 01:22:07,800 Speaker 1: all Republicans to say, Mr President, you cannot do this. 1414 01:22:08,040 --> 01:22:11,800 Speaker 1: You are trying to inhibit the free speech of people 1415 01:22:11,880 --> 01:22:15,439 Speaker 1: who may be in opposition to you. To use this 1416 01:22:15,840 --> 01:22:20,000 Speaker 1: kind of punishment to chill speak is a violation of 1417 01:22:20,120 --> 01:22:23,240 Speaker 1: the First Amendment. I mean, this is a striking move 1418 01:22:23,320 --> 01:22:26,360 Speaker 1: towards authoritarianism. You know, this is what dictators do. They 1419 01:22:26,400 --> 01:22:29,400 Speaker 1: shut down the press, shut down to send they jailed 1420 01:22:29,439 --> 01:22:33,040 Speaker 1: their opponents for in this case, they steal their security clearance. 1421 01:22:33,160 --> 01:22:36,880 Speaker 1: What happened here was a pure authoritarian act from an 1422 01:22:36,920 --> 01:22:40,000 Speaker 1: intemperate president who wanted to punish one of his critics, 1423 01:22:40,080 --> 01:22:44,800 Speaker 1: nothing more, nothing less, threatening him right now, But you 1424 01:22:44,920 --> 01:22:48,559 Speaker 1: know what he said already, right, it doesn't influence something 1425 01:22:48,600 --> 01:22:51,120 Speaker 1: already staying away from from John Len And so doesn't 1426 01:22:51,160 --> 01:22:54,599 Speaker 1: that say that everybody else shut your mouth is basically 1427 01:22:54,760 --> 01:22:58,240 Speaker 1: sort of delegitimizing our system of government. Maybe this is 1428 01:22:58,280 --> 01:23:01,280 Speaker 1: the beginning of a new Satura day night massacre, and 1429 01:23:01,360 --> 01:23:03,640 Speaker 1: one has to wonder whether Mr Trump is feeling the 1430 01:23:03,760 --> 01:23:06,479 Speaker 1: pressure of the Manifort trial. It looks like he may 1431 01:23:06,720 --> 01:23:10,559 Speaker 1: very well have obstructed justice in this particular case. That's 1432 01:23:10,600 --> 01:23:12,880 Speaker 1: why I find it particularly ironic that he seems to be, 1433 01:23:13,439 --> 01:23:16,960 Speaker 1: you know, continuing to try to obstruct and in this 1434 01:23:17,120 --> 01:23:22,080 Speaker 1: case so publicly. They're starting to feel the collusion investigation 1435 01:23:22,200 --> 01:23:25,120 Speaker 1: closing in a little bit more, we're getting Donald Trump's 1436 01:23:25,840 --> 01:23:30,680 Speaker 1: most overt and obstructionist tweets to date. Um, it's not 1437 01:23:30,800 --> 01:23:33,120 Speaker 1: a surprise. Just around this little incident will be a 1438 01:23:33,200 --> 01:23:38,960 Speaker 1: strong mini case obstruction.

In these districts. When you talk to 1467 01:25:18,760 --> 01:25:21,000 Speaker 1: people about Russia and that's all we talk about at CNN, 1468 01:25:21,360 --> 01:25:24,160 Speaker 1: you know, then this weekend I'm watching what's his name, 1469 01:25:24,240 --> 01:25:28,320 Speaker 1: Paris Denard over it's just clabboring. Now. We pointed out 1470 01:25:28,360 --> 01:25:31,160 Speaker 1: the amount of money last week that all of these 1471 01:25:31,240 --> 01:25:34,879 Speaker 1: people they leave, you know, government with their security clearances, 1472 01:25:34,960 --> 01:25:37,600 Speaker 1: then they go work for contractors like Lockheed Martin. Now 1473 01:25:37,680 --> 01:25:40,720 Speaker 1: do I think that's a bad thing. Not necessarily. I 1474 01:25:40,760 --> 01:25:44,160 Speaker 1: don't mind people making money and using their expertise, their background, 1475 01:25:44,200 --> 01:25:50,240 Speaker 1: their experience, uh to to advise companies on what's good right, 1476 01:25:50,400 --> 01:25:54,160 Speaker 1: just etcetera. But you know when you see Comey is 1477 01:25:54,200 --> 01:25:58,920 Speaker 1: getting huge contracts and Mueller is the FBI director and 1478 01:25:59,000 --> 01:26:02,519 Speaker 1: the amount of money is staggering, and then it becomes 1479 01:26:02,560 --> 01:26:04,120 Speaker 1: a bit of an issue to me, and then I 1480 01:26:04,200 --> 01:26:09,120 Speaker 1: think legitimate investigate the investigators follow the money. Questions do 1481 01:26:09,320 --> 01:26:12,400 Speaker 1: need to be asked? Now, the fact is this guy, 1482 01:26:12,680 --> 01:26:16,040 Speaker 1: Paris Denard, was right Philip Mudd at a meltdown, and 1483 01:26:16,120 --> 01:26:19,320 Speaker 1: he kept shifting the issue. Tell me where the US 1484 01:26:19,479 --> 01:26:23,200 Speaker 1: government paid, And we're not talking about that. Paris. Denard 1485 01:26:23,320 --> 01:26:25,559 Speaker 1: was not talking about that. He was rightly pointing out 1486 01:26:26,280 --> 01:26:28,280 Speaker 1: and this new book now highlights it that we had 1487 01:26:28,360 --> 01:26:33,439 Speaker 1: on on Friday, that yeah, there is this this industry 1488 01:26:33,520 --> 01:26:36,800 Speaker 1: that exists for people with security clearances. Listen, a lot 1489 01:26:36,880 --> 01:26:39,320 Speaker 1: of these people that had these security clearances, and this 1490 01:26:39,400 --> 01:26:41,760 Speaker 1: is the secret and in the swampy Washton d C. 1491 01:26:42,160 --> 01:26:45,200 Speaker 1: They have them and they keep them because it's profitable 1492 01:26:45,240 --> 01:26:47,720 Speaker 1: for them after they leave government. Because if you have 1493 01:26:47,800 --> 01:26:51,280 Speaker 1: a security clearance, especially high level security clearances, your contracts 1494 01:26:51,280 --> 01:26:53,719 Speaker 1: and your consulting gift pay you a lot more money 1495 01:26:53,760 --> 01:26:55,760 Speaker 1: because of the access that you have. I hope the 1496 01:26:55,800 --> 01:26:58,040 Speaker 1: President continues to do this, and I hope he adds 1497 01:26:58,040 --> 01:26:59,840 Speaker 1: I'm a Rosa to the list because if she has 1498 01:26:59,880 --> 01:27:03,280 Speaker 1: a clearance, she too, because of her actions, should have 1499 01:27:03,400 --> 01:27:04,920 Speaker 1: it revoked. Well. I don't know if I put am 1500 01:27:05,040 --> 01:27:07,040 Speaker 1: Rosso in the same category of the seventy people sign 1501 01:27:07,080 --> 01:27:09,240 Speaker 1: those letters, but film I imagine you want to react 1502 01:27:09,360 --> 01:27:13,280 Speaker 1: profitable Paris. When I am requested to sit on an 1503 01:27:13,280 --> 01:27:16,920 Speaker 1: advisor board, let me ask you one question, how much 1504 01:27:17,000 --> 01:27:18,680 Speaker 1: do you think I'm paid to do that? At the 1505 01:27:18,760 --> 01:27:21,519 Speaker 1: requestion to the US government at the request of the government. 1506 01:27:21,760 --> 01:27:25,040 Speaker 1: Seconds ten seconds, ten nine, I'll give I'll ask you 1507 01:27:25,160 --> 01:27:27,240 Speaker 1: a question, how much are you paid for your answer 1508 01:27:27,360 --> 01:27:30,240 Speaker 1: the question? Ack and gig for for being a for 1509 01:27:30,400 --> 01:27:32,960 Speaker 1: They have no contract with the US with the government. 1510 01:27:33,000 --> 01:27:35,040 Speaker 1: That's not what he's talking about. When I'm not talking 1511 01:27:35,120 --> 01:27:40,800 Speaker 1: about Zerial, That's be honest. I'm not talking about your 1512 01:27:40,920 --> 01:27:45,879 Speaker 1: role with the federal government. I'm talking about that Sultan 1513 01:27:46,080 --> 01:27:48,960 Speaker 1: and a contractor. The consulting firms that they form and 1514 01:27:49,000 --> 01:27:51,559 Speaker 1: that you all get is because you get more money 1515 01:27:51,600 --> 01:27:55,120 Speaker 1: when having a consultant before having the security class like 1516 01:27:55,200 --> 01:27:58,120 Speaker 1: that doesn't happen. I have zero consulting relationship to with 1517 01:27:58,120 --> 01:28:00,799 Speaker 1: the US government. Zero. Not to didn't say the government 1518 01:28:00,880 --> 01:28:03,640 Speaker 1: notice three times talking about relationship with the government. I'm 1519 01:28:03,680 --> 01:28:05,840 Speaker 1: talking about in the private sector. When you have a 1520 01:28:05,920 --> 01:28:11,360 Speaker 1: security relationships with the private sector that involved my security clearance. Zero. 1521 01:28:11,840 --> 01:28:15,040 Speaker 1: I get zero dollars from consulting companies that deal with 1522 01:28:15,160 --> 01:28:18,000 Speaker 1: US government. Are we clear? Well, I will be clear 1523 01:28:18,120 --> 01:28:20,519 Speaker 1: and saying that everybody in Washington, d C. Knows if 1524 01:28:20,600 --> 01:28:22,280 Speaker 1: you don't want to be honest about it. That's on you, 1525 01:28:23,479 --> 01:28:25,960 Speaker 1: all right. So now maybe Mud doesn't have those, but 1526 01:28:26,120 --> 01:28:29,200 Speaker 1: it's funny that he didn't answer the guy's question. Now 1527 01:28:29,320 --> 01:28:31,400 Speaker 1: we know from this new book that wait a minute, 1528 01:28:31,479 --> 01:28:35,280 Speaker 1: this is an industry that none of us really knew about. That. 1529 01:28:35,520 --> 01:28:38,000 Speaker 1: You know, if I guess if what's his name, coll 1530 01:28:38,040 --> 01:28:42,920 Speaker 1: Me can go work for what Lockheed Martin and makes 1531 01:28:42,960 --> 01:28:45,880 Speaker 1: six million dollars according to this book Compromised, How money 1532 01:28:45,920 --> 01:28:49,720 Speaker 1: in politics drive FBI corruption and Mueller at the time 1533 01:28:49,760 --> 01:28:53,519 Speaker 1: as the FBI Director. I mean, okay, now one of 1534 01:28:53,560 --> 01:28:56,519 Speaker 1: their old friends. I mean, it's so incestuous.

All right, Cindy is in Michigan. Cindy, Hi, 1566 01:30:52,240 --> 01:30:54,120 Speaker 1: how are you. We're glad you called. Welcome to the 1567 01:30:54,160 --> 01:30:57,439 Speaker 1: Sean Hannity Show. Hi, Sean, I hope you're well. I 1568 01:30:57,600 --> 01:31:01,479 Speaker 1: am calling today about the term fake news. I think 1569 01:31:01,560 --> 01:31:05,640 Speaker 1: it really is yellow journalism, and it's a language of 1570 01:31:05,800 --> 01:31:11,160 Speaker 1: half truth, innuendos, and outright lies. And I can't imagine 1571 01:31:11,240 --> 01:31:15,200 Speaker 1: how thick President Trump's skin must be to listen to 1572 01:31:15,560 --> 01:31:20,000 Speaker 1: what he must hear all day long. And I just 1573 01:31:20,120 --> 01:31:23,200 Speaker 1: don't think that people have the right who have access 1574 01:31:23,240 --> 01:31:27,880 Speaker 1: to the press, CNN, John Brennan, all these people that 1575 01:31:28,040 --> 01:31:30,200 Speaker 1: they have the right to say or print lies that 1576 01:31:30,400 --> 01:31:33,920 Speaker 1: black and a person's name and cause pain. And I 1577 01:31:34,040 --> 01:31:37,240 Speaker 1: think that's what they do. And I people that support 1578 01:31:38,000 --> 01:31:40,840 Speaker 1: and the what what I was hearing with John Brennan 1579 01:31:40,960 --> 01:31:45,200 Speaker 1: just infuriates me. And I wonder do people just derive 1580 01:31:45,439 --> 01:31:49,479 Speaker 1: pleasure from the pain it might cause somebody else, especially 1581 01:31:49,600 --> 01:31:52,800 Speaker 1: President Trump? And do they listen to it, support it 1582 01:31:53,280 --> 01:31:56,600 Speaker 1: because it's not happening to them? Said, You've got to 1583 01:31:56,680 --> 01:32:00,479 Speaker 1: understand something that's very profound here they hate this president. 1584 01:32:01,080 --> 01:32:03,479 Speaker 1: They think they did everything they could do to stop 1585 01:32:03,600 --> 01:32:07,760 Speaker 1: this president. They never thought this president would win. They 1586 01:32:08,040 --> 01:32:14,720 Speaker 1: did things that were frankly untoward and illegal, and some 1587 01:32:14,880 --> 01:32:17,400 Speaker 1: of them are in legal jeopardy. And look, I I 1588 01:32:17,560 --> 01:32:23,160 Speaker 1: don't know, I've never seen a media so complicit involved 1589 01:32:23,200 --> 01:32:27,080 Speaker 1: in a cover up of monumental proportions. We have the evidence. 1590 01:32:27,120 --> 01:32:30,760 Speaker 1: These people have been fired, these people have resigned, these 1591 01:32:30,800 --> 01:32:33,759 Speaker 1: people have been demoted, and it's all over the place. 1592 01:32:34,280 --> 01:32:36,560 Speaker 1: And in the meantime, then then we're learning that not 1593 01:32:36,680 --> 01:32:39,200 Speaker 1: only did the president his attorney's hand over one point 1594 01:32:39,320 --> 01:32:43,840 Speaker 1: for million separate documents to Muller and his merry band 1595 01:32:43,880 --> 01:32:46,280 Speaker 1: of witch hunters, but then they even allowed the White 1596 01:32:46,320 --> 01:32:49,000 Speaker 1: House Council, which is unprecedented, to talk to this guy 1597 01:32:49,080 --> 01:32:53,040 Speaker 1: for thirty hours. That's it. Case closed. Nobody lets their 1598 01:32:53,040 --> 01:32:57,160 Speaker 1: attorney Clinton, nobody would let their attorney speak to the 1599 01:32:57,560 --> 01:32:59,720 Speaker 1: Special Counsel like this. So now they want to bring 1600 01:32:59,800 --> 01:33:01,920 Speaker 1: the as it him. Why because he may contradict one 1601 01:33:02,000 --> 01:33:05,120 Speaker 1: or two things that that was said by his attorney, 1602 01:33:05,400 --> 01:33:07,560 Speaker 1: the White House Counsel, And they can say, and this 1603 01:33:07,640 --> 01:33:09,640 Speaker 1: is what Rudy was trying to say, The truth is 1604 01:33:09,680 --> 01:33:12,320 Speaker 1: not the truth what he's saying in that statement, and 1605 01:33:12,400 --> 01:33:15,559 Speaker 1: it sounds to the average person like a dumb thing 1606 01:33:15,680 --> 01:33:18,640 Speaker 1: to say.
