1
00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:15,400
Speaker 1: You are entering the freedom hunt. Trump and mccron have

2
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:19,119
Speaker 1: a discussion while he's out there doing the NATO thing. Also,

3
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:22,480
Speaker 1: the House GOP has a report out on impeachment. The

4
00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:25,920
Speaker 1: Inspector General report means that people are running for cover

5
00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:29,760
Speaker 1: and trying to run interference on both sides. A peloton

6
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:32,920
Speaker 1: ad that's gotten far more attention than it intended to,

7
00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:36,720
Speaker 1: and liberals don't like Melania's coat. That are more coming up.

8
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:40,920
Speaker 1: This is the bus Sexton Show, where the mission or

9
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 1: mission is to decode what really matters with actionable intelligence.

10
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:50,680
Speaker 1: Mag no mistake American. Great, you're a great American Again,

11
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:58,280
Speaker 1: the Buck Sexton Show begins. He's a great guy. No,

12
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,040
Speaker 1: welcome to the Buck Sex and Show. Everybody. Sorry, I'm

13
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 1: my voice a little scratchy this morning. I don't really

14
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:07,039
Speaker 1: know why, but thank you so much for me. That's

15
00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:08,760
Speaker 1: what it's what happens. You do a radio show enough,

16
00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 1: your vocal cords take a beaten. Mine are much abused.

17
00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:15,280
Speaker 1: It's one of the reasons why I'm days off. I

18
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:18,120
Speaker 1: try to talk less. I just look at people and

19
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:21,360
Speaker 1: nodded my head. M that's great. We got a lot

20
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 1: to get you today. NATO, NATO North Atlantic Treaty organization

21
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:30,959
Speaker 1: been around for quite some time trying to counter the Soviets.

22
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 1: You got Trump sitting down with Emmanuel Macron, who I

23
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:38,720
Speaker 1: will say, does remind me. I mean, you could cast

24
00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 1: him as this snooty French waiter in any movie or

25
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 1: TV show. I brought you this ketchup because you're American

26
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 1: and you put ketchip on everything. You know what I mean?

27
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 1: You could do that and it would it would work perfectly. Well,

28
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 1: you know, it doesn't really smile, doesn't really exude a

29
00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 1: lot of warmth, but certainly exudes a lot of frenchness,

30
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 1: a lot of French coming from this guy. But they're

31
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 1: sitting there having a discussion about NATO. And here's what

32
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 1: the media wants you to believe. Let's start with that.

33
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 1: If you're just a casual observer of news channels and newspapers,

34
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 1: with of course the few exceptions that have not made

35
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:23,360
Speaker 1: anti Trump is their business model. But if you happen

36
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 1: to take a look casually and just see what's going

37
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:29,799
Speaker 1: on with NATO, you will read things and see things

38
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 1: about how Trump is terrible for NATO, He's been a

39
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:39,200
Speaker 1: great threat. In fact, there was a CNN analysis this morning.

40
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:43,600
Speaker 1: You can't make this stuff up. CNN analysis where he

41
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 1: said or where it was said, that Trump is the

42
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 1: biggest threat to NATO. And so there's some irony in

43
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 1: the fact that he is holding a meeting with different

44
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:59,880
Speaker 1: NATO leaders, including an Emmanuel Macron of France. This is

45
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:06,360
Speaker 1: is very stupid. This is aggressively stupid, as I was

46
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 1: fond of saying in the past, because first of all,

47
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 1: if anyone thinks that it's a greater threat than Putin,

48
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:13,480
Speaker 1: I would really need them to explain that. I also

49
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 1: think that the threat that Putin poses to us as

50
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:22,120
Speaker 1: a general matter is being exaggerated. I know that I've

51
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:25,760
Speaker 1: been telling you for years now. The media, the Democrats

52
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:30,040
Speaker 1: are completely willing to skip past the real concern that

53
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 1: China poses to US as a near peer competitor, a

54
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 1: country that at some point is going to try to

55
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 1: flex its muscles and say, sorry, America, you're not the

56
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:45,400
Speaker 1: hegemon anymore. You don't get to make that call. Russia

57
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 1: is a fraction of the Chinese economy and a fraction

58
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 1: of the Chinese population. Let's be serious for a moment.

59
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 1: Anybody who tells you that Russia has a bigger threat

60
00:03:56,080 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 1: than China doesn't know what they're talking about or is lying. Well,

61
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 1: let's get back to NATO for a moment, shall we

62
00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 1: You have the discussion over ISIS fighters that got the

63
00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 1: most attention this morning from the Macron Trump meeting. Please

64
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:18,279
Speaker 1: produce a Brandon Plick Club twelve for me, the very

65
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:21,600
Speaker 1: first subjective in the regions is to finish war against

66
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:26,719
Speaker 1: ices and and don't don't make any mistake. Your number

67
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:29,640
Speaker 1: one problem are not the firm fighters. This is the

68
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,920
Speaker 1: II fighters in the regions, and you have more and

69
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 1: more in fighters due to the situation today. This is

70
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:38,400
Speaker 1: why he's a great politician because that was one of

71
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 1: the greatest non answers I've ever preferred. And that's okay

72
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 1: because sometimes if you can have some fundation from the

73
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:49,919
Speaker 1: DPUs side. I don't say about freas in Fern, but

74
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 1: could be the press to say this is the European responsibility.

75
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:57,119
Speaker 1: I'm sorry to say that we have some of our people,

76
00:04:57,640 --> 00:04:59,279
Speaker 1: but if you don't think at the reality of the

77
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 1: situations that no one not to be ambiguous with these brooks.

78
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 1: This is why we thought that to discuss about our

79
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 1: relations were still key. But I think any ambiguiki was

80
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 1: Stilkey these books he's victim on to to everybody for

81
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:21,600
Speaker 1: the situation. France has actually taken back some fighters. So

82
00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 1: we have a lot of fighters, We captured a lot

83
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 1: of people, and we have captured one hundred percent of

84
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:29,240
Speaker 1: the caliphate that you know that that means that it's

85
00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:33,840
Speaker 1: still going and going. We set a small contingent in

86
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:37,240
Speaker 1: and we wiped out another portion of ices. We don't

87
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:40,360
Speaker 1: want to happen to me what happened with President Obama

88
00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 1: where it reformed and then it became stronger than it

89
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:44,760
Speaker 1: was in the first place. So we don't want that

90
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,920
Speaker 1: to happen. So this is the primary exchange that everyone

91
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:52,560
Speaker 1: was focusing on between these two or leaders today. One

92
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 1: thing you see here is that the French, and this

93
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:58,120
Speaker 1: is true of really all of our European partners, with

94
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:01,640
Speaker 1: the possible exception of the Bridge, who do punch pretty

95
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:05,200
Speaker 1: close to if not at their weight, on these matters.

96
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 1: We can count on the Brits in a way that

97
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 1: we really can't count on other European states, count on

98
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:14,719
Speaker 1: the Aussies kind of the Canadians, but the French not

99
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 1: so much. The European states mine is Britain tend to

100
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 1: want to have a much bigger say, but much less

101
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,480
Speaker 1: responsibility in all of these matters. And that's why Trump

102
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 1: was poking Makran a bit here with the cameras rolling,

103
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 1: knowing that this would perhaps get under the French leader's

104
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:38,640
Speaker 1: skin a little bit. America is somehow responsible for whatever

105
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 1: outcome happens now in Syria. This is what you've been

106
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:44,800
Speaker 1: led to believe. Meanwhile, we are supposed to be one

107
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 1: of many countries to have partnered up to deal with

108
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 1: the mess that is Syria. And all these people who say, oh,

109
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:56,160
Speaker 1: we should just stay there and stabilize, stabilize until what,

110
00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:01,599
Speaker 1: until there's a challenger regime even place to Assad, because

111
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:03,840
Speaker 1: that's going to be a pretty picture that's going to

112
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 1: work out really well. Or just stay indefinitely until Assad decides, Hey,

113
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 1: I want that piece of the country back because I'm

114
00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:13,200
Speaker 1: the leader, even if you want to pretend I'm not.

115
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 1: That doesn't look like it ends well for us. The

116
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:20,520
Speaker 1: people that think that we should just stay in Syria

117
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 1: haven't really thought this through very much. They now point

118
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:28,360
Speaker 1: to continuing operations against ISIS as somehow proof that we

119
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 1: should just stay forever. And I look at this and say, no,

120
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 1: we should be trying to remove our troops so that

121
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:35,640
Speaker 1: they don't stay forever. And if we're in the last

122
00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:39,600
Speaker 1: phases of isis mop up, then so be it. There's

123
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,600
Speaker 1: also always risk attended to any of these moves and maneuvers.

124
00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 1: But what do the French really bring to the table here?

125
00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 1: What do they do that is helpful in this process? Well,

126
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 1: sure they're a part of this coalition, and I'm sure

127
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 1: they would point to different ways that they have tried

128
00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 1: to contribute. But we all know that somehow once again,

129
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 1: and America is in the leadership role. Oh you mean

130
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 1: that even under President Trump, America is in a leadership role.

131
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:12,000
Speaker 1: America is calling the shots, has the greatest degree of responsibility. Really,

132
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 1: I thought that Trump abdicated it. I thought Trump was

133
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 1: destroying NATO. Wait you mean Trump got over one hundred

134
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:20,560
Speaker 1: billion dollars of additional funding from NATO members for their

135
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 1: own defense. Remember, we are trying to prevent Russian aggression.

136
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 1: We also asked the question, it should be asked much

137
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 1: more frequently, what else should NATO will be doing? You

138
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 1: know what, NATO's only mission in recent memory really has

139
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:39,439
Speaker 1: been Afghanistan. What is NATO doing in Afghanistan. We got

140
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:41,320
Speaker 1: a lot of allies. We got this fancy NATO thing.

141
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 1: I guess we better use it. How has Afghanistan worked

142
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 1: out with this multi country coalition meant to stabilize it?

143
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 1: How many of you listening right now either served yourselves

144
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,160
Speaker 1: or have friends, family members, loved ones who have served

145
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 1: in Afghanistan to come back and say, that's not going

146
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,160
Speaker 1: to be whatever the policymakers think it's going to be.

147
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 1: A being to bed. Almost all of them, probably all

148
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,960
Speaker 1: of them. Anybody who served in a front line unit

149
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:12,360
Speaker 1: there knows there's not going to be some stable democracy.

150
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:13,600
Speaker 1: We're not gonna be able to point to this thing

151
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:18,040
Speaker 1: and say, yes, another NATO success. But even to ask

152
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 1: these questions is treated as being Putin's puppet. This is

153
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:26,080
Speaker 1: what they say, Oh, you're putting out Russian propaganda. Do

154
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:29,679
Speaker 1: they realize or do they care? To the leftists who

155
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 1: hate Trump and the media acolytes of the Democratic Party

156
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 1: pretending to be nonpartisan, do they care that making Russia

157
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:40,839
Speaker 1: into America's Enemy number one hurts us in a number

158
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 1: of ways. It hurts us with regard to fighting against

159
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:50,439
Speaker 1: Islamic radicalism, where Russia is in fact an ally it

160
00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 1: hurts us with trying to get the Russians to play

161
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:58,960
Speaker 1: nicer and with more diplomacy on the European states on

162
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 1: their periphery. We have a lot in common with Russia

163
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 1: in certain areas. In others we don't. They view us

164
00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,560
Speaker 1: as oppositional. The Russian mentality is very much that they are.

165
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:13,319
Speaker 1: They view themselves as surrounded. We view Russia as vast

166
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:16,839
Speaker 1: eleven time zones. It's huge. They think of themselves though

167
00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:19,959
Speaker 1: its surrounded by hostile states. They have to look on

168
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:23,840
Speaker 1: their periphery and see NATO to the west, see China

169
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:29,400
Speaker 1: and Japan to the east and southeast, and then even

170
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:33,960
Speaker 1: India pushing up from their south. From the underbelly, Russia

171
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:37,080
Speaker 1: doesn't view itself as in some strategically sound position. Russia

172
00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:41,360
Speaker 1: views itself as a victim of geopolitical circumstances, and in

173
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 1: the post Soviet era even more so. Now I'm not

174
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 1: saying they're correct or that's right, that's helpful, but we

175
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,319
Speaker 1: should at least understand what the mentality is and try

176
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,839
Speaker 1: to work within that reality. Does anyone really want to

177
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:56,079
Speaker 1: go to war with Russia? Better question, would anyone in

178
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,840
Speaker 1: the Democrat press right now, which is really just the press.

179
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:03,320
Speaker 1: They want to send their children to go fight on

180
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:07,679
Speaker 1: the front lines of Estonia if there was a Russian

181
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,400
Speaker 1: incident involving Maskarovka. I'm not talking about all the tanks

182
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:13,160
Speaker 1: Roland and I'm saying some separatist movement where they all

183
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:16,240
Speaker 1: happen to speak Russian and some of you know there are,

184
00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 1: in fact many people in the Baltic States for whom

185
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:22,080
Speaker 1: Russian is their first language, their whole communities. There would

186
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 1: not be that hard for this to happen. Are we

187
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:27,960
Speaker 1: going to get involved in that fight? Now? You can say, yes,

188
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 1: you can take that position, but we should at least

189
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:33,760
Speaker 1: people to have that discussion without the idiots in the media.

190
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:35,560
Speaker 1: And I've realized now the media really is full of

191
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:39,840
Speaker 1: people who have decided that it's not worthwhile to do

192
00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 1: anything useful. It's much better for them to just try

193
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:44,760
Speaker 1: to be in the cool kid club all the time,

194
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 1: to do whatever they have to do to impress the

195
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:50,320
Speaker 1: corporate executives who can sign over paychecks that are far

196
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 1: bigger than what they would deserve if they weren't working

197
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:56,000
Speaker 1: for legacy media outlets. They don't care how stupid they

198
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,679
Speaker 1: look on these issues and how much. They push us

199
00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 1: with their belligerence in the reporting, closer and closer to

200
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:04,959
Speaker 1: an actual conflict with Russia, which would be horrific. By

201
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 1: the way, and I remember it's President Trump who blew

202
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,120
Speaker 1: up a couple of hundred Russian paramilitaries in the Syrian

203
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:14,839
Speaker 1: desert in order to protect our Kurdish allies, I might add,

204
00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:19,599
Speaker 1: and Russia let that one go. We don't want to

205
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 1: keep having close calls with the Russian state. To say

206
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 1: that we should aim for better relations with Russia is

207
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,559
Speaker 1: so obvious that it shouldn't have to be said. But

208
00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:32,920
Speaker 1: in our current environment, you hear the narrative Trump is

209
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:37,160
Speaker 1: destroying NATO, Trump is Putin's puppet. Anything that deviates from that.

210
00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 1: Any facts you can present that don't go along with

211
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:44,040
Speaker 1: that narrative makes you a bad person. You're an idiot.

212
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,040
Speaker 1: You don't know anything. That's what the media will tell you.

213
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:50,000
Speaker 1: But hold on a second. What bad thing has happened

214
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:53,400
Speaker 1: to NATO? Well, name one bad thing that has happened

215
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,560
Speaker 1: to NATO because of Trump since he became the president.

216
00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:04,840
Speaker 1: If you NATO bureaus. A few European institutionalist types decided

217
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:06,160
Speaker 1: that it was he was a little gruff when he

218
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:09,240
Speaker 1: was asking for more money. Okay, guess what states paid

219
00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:12,199
Speaker 1: up more money and they said they would That was

220
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:15,120
Speaker 1: the agreement that we had. NATO is nothing other than

221
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 1: an agreement. In fact, so in some states can say yeah,

222
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:19,440
Speaker 1: we'll do this and then they don't do it. Doesn't

223
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:22,560
Speaker 1: that undermine the very core of what holds it all together.

224
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,080
Speaker 1: But there's never any discussion about any of this, That's honest.

225
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,320
Speaker 1: It's just everything is about bashing Trump. Nothing can be

226
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:35,439
Speaker 1: separate from bashing Trump. These people. This is the totalitarian mindset.

227
00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:36,959
Speaker 1: And you go back, you see the way it was

228
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,600
Speaker 1: in the Soviet Union. If you were in any way

229
00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:43,400
Speaker 1: opposing the Soviet state, you were a counter revolutionary and

230
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 1: therefore you were to be nullified, you were to be destroyed.

231
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,280
Speaker 1: For the media right now, they have a Soviet mentality

232
00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:54,560
Speaker 1: about Trump, especially because we're in this reelection cycle. Now

233
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:58,439
Speaker 1: you're either trying to destroy President Trump or you're evil.

234
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 1: You're part of the problem. Every issue, every news story,

235
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 1: doesn't matter what it is, even when we're talking about

236
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:10,240
Speaker 1: things like conflict possibly between nuclear armed states. They're reckless

237
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:14,880
Speaker 1: about this stuff. Putin's puppet, oh Russia, more sanctions on Russia,

238
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:17,840
Speaker 1: more tough talk against Russia. Really, how far do we

239
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:21,480
Speaker 1: really want to push that? Obama didn't push really much

240
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:23,120
Speaker 1: at all. By the way, he got real tough with

241
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 1: Russia at the end of his presidency. We wouldn't have

242
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:27,640
Speaker 1: to deal with it, didn't want to send those javelin missiles,

243
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 1: did the whole expulsion of Russian diplomats and added sanctions

244
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:36,960
Speaker 1: after he was going to be out of office, and

245
00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 1: wasn't his problem anymore. Really easy to be tough them

246
00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:42,200
Speaker 1: when you don't have to be the one that looks

247
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 1: into the eyes of parents who have lost their child

248
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:51,800
Speaker 1: because of the stupidity of much older and allegedly wiser

249
00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:54,560
Speaker 1: elected officials who think they know what they're doing. But

250
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:57,360
Speaker 1: really it's all about them in this whole process. It's

251
00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:00,520
Speaker 1: not about NATO. It's about defeating Trump. There people who

252
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:04,640
Speaker 1: want power. The narrative of NATO that you are being

253
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:11,200
Speaker 1: told every day has been completely misconstrued, distorted, and perverted

254
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,880
Speaker 1: as a club yet again against the presidents of the

255
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 1: United States, and it is not based in reality. Just

256
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 1: remember that as you see all of this playing out, Well,

257
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:22,040
Speaker 1: I haven't asked that to the president today. I have

258
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:25,960
Speaker 1: over the period time. We have a tremendous amount of

259
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:32,320
Speaker 1: captured fighters. ISIS fighters over Interia, and they're Roland, the

260
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:35,760
Speaker 1: Latin Key, but many of from France, many of from Germany,

261
00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:39,600
Speaker 1: and many are from UK. They're mostly from Europe, and

262
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:42,240
Speaker 1: some of the countries are agreeing. I have not spoken

263
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 1: to the president about that. Would you like some nice

264
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 1: ISIS fighters, I can give them. You can take everyone

265
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:55,520
Speaker 1: you want. The very large number of fighters you have

266
00:15:55,600 --> 00:16:00,240
Speaker 1: under Rome to fight us me from from your in

267
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:04,160
Speaker 1: the region. This is true that you have foreign fighters

268
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:06,320
Speaker 1: coming from Europe, but this is a tiny minoritia of

269
00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:08,840
Speaker 1: the whole problem we have in the region. And I

270
00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:12,600
Speaker 1: think number one priority because it's not yet finished. It's

271
00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 1: a graduate of IIS and it's always corps. This is

272
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:20,880
Speaker 1: our number one pio and it's not yet Dune. I'm

273
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 1: sorry to think that. Yes, you see that fighters in

274
00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:26,800
Speaker 1: this region, in Syria and now in Iraq and more

275
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:29,800
Speaker 1: and more, and the whole the setidization of the region

276
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:34,600
Speaker 1: makes the situation more difficult to fix, the situation against ISIS.

277
00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:37,880
Speaker 1: So who's going to be responsible for all those fighters

278
00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:40,320
Speaker 1: we have on the ground. You have all these people

279
00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:42,280
Speaker 1: that say that they know what to do in Syria,

280
00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:45,640
Speaker 1: they know what the end game is really Your thousands

281
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:49,560
Speaker 1: and thousands of prisoners, what happens to them? They've all

282
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:52,640
Speaker 1: been radicalized one way or another. Maybe some of them

283
00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:55,280
Speaker 1: now would claim that they've turned on the Islamic state

284
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:58,000
Speaker 1: because it has crumbled. But anyone who would fight for

285
00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:04,520
Speaker 1: a jihadest army that engages in mass torture, enslavement, rape,

286
00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:07,880
Speaker 1: mutilation and murder, it's not somebody you're going to want

287
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:12,880
Speaker 1: to let go anytime soon. Who takes all the Isis fighters. Well,

288
00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:15,919
Speaker 1: isn't it nice to have a president who looks at

289
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,240
Speaker 1: some of the world leaders who are our allies, places

290
00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:20,520
Speaker 1: like France, and I do love France and the French people,

291
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:22,280
Speaker 1: by the way, as much as I love will make

292
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:25,359
Speaker 1: fun of zam Brandon. They're also it's a beautiful culture

293
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:29,919
Speaker 1: with great food. That all said, sometimes a little bit

294
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:33,520
Speaker 1: of tough love is necessary in diplomacy. Sometimes pushing our

295
00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:35,600
Speaker 1: allies a little bit to do things they don't necessarily

296
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 1: want to do means that we have to do less.

297
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:42,119
Speaker 1: And therefore, oh, that's right. It's America first, isn't it.

298
00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:45,359
Speaker 1: Our interests should be pursued. That doesn't mean at the

299
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:50,320
Speaker 1: exclusion of being helpful and keeping our word to our allies.

300
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:52,760
Speaker 1: But it does mean that there's a whole other way

301
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 1: to approach these issues. You get more funding out of

302
00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,320
Speaker 1: NATO members. Maybe you also get some NATO members like

303
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:01,919
Speaker 1: France to back anybody who's a French citizen who's an

304
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:05,520
Speaker 1: ISIS fighter. How about that for a crazy idea. I

305
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:09,200
Speaker 1: think it's very unpatriotic of the Democrats to put on

306
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:12,280
Speaker 1: a performance where they do that. I do. I think

307
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:15,640
Speaker 1: it's a bad thing for our country. Impeachment wasn't supposed

308
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:17,800
Speaker 1: to be used that way. All you have to do

309
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,560
Speaker 1: is read the transcripts. You see there was absolutely nothing

310
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:23,919
Speaker 1: done wrong. They had legal scholars looking at the transcripts

311
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:27,119
Speaker 1: the other day and they say these are absolutely perfect.

312
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:30,760
Speaker 1: Trump is right when he uses those concepts. Those calls

313
00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:34,280
Speaker 1: that we've made, two of them were absolutely perfect calls.

314
00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:37,199
Speaker 1: And I think it's a very bad thing for our country.

315
00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:40,440
Speaker 1: Does it cast in cloud Well, if it does, then

316
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:43,200
Speaker 1: the Democrats have done a very great disservice to the country,

317
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:46,920
Speaker 1: which they have. The Democrats have done a disservice to

318
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:49,200
Speaker 1: the country, but they're not stopping. They don't care about

319
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:51,800
Speaker 1: the disservice they are doing, and so we have to

320
00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:56,959
Speaker 1: now sit through this Judiciary Committee nonsense on Wednesday, another

321
00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:03,040
Speaker 1: kabuki theater attack Trump extravaganza. We have our friend Raheim

322
00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:06,520
Speaker 1: Kassam joining us now. He is the co host of

323
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,960
Speaker 1: the podcast called War Rum, which is on impeachment and

324
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:13,680
Speaker 1: related political matters. You can check that out on iTunes. Raheim,

325
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:16,520
Speaker 1: Great to have you back, sir, Hey, thanks for having me. Buck.

326
00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 1: All right, so let's before we get into your expectations.

327
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,119
Speaker 1: And I know you're you're doing your show with Miller

328
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:23,639
Speaker 1: and with Bannon, so you guys are neck deep in

329
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:26,560
Speaker 1: this impeachment thing all the time. But before we get

330
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,280
Speaker 1: to what your expectations are for Wednesday, how do you

331
00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:32,680
Speaker 1: assess what's happened so far? Is this? Have Democrats just

332
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:35,280
Speaker 1: been stumbling left and right? Or do we not really

333
00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:39,240
Speaker 1: know what their strategy is? I don't think they quite

334
00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:42,760
Speaker 1: know what their strategy is. Buck, They went into this

335
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:47,440
Speaker 1: whole process, they were effectively sold a bit of a

336
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:54,360
Speaker 1: fantasy by this so called whistleblower. The fantasy didn't turn

337
00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:58,040
Speaker 1: out to be reality. We heard from the whistleblower very

338
00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,600
Speaker 1: early on in this process that they were things on

339
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:04,440
Speaker 1: the phone call between President Trump and President Lensky, which

340
00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 1: when the transcript was published, they weren't in there. Okay,

341
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 1: So the Democrats then had to pivot and they said, well,

342
00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:12,800
Speaker 1: we're going to bring all these witnesses in. We're gonna

343
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:15,000
Speaker 1: bring people who were familiar with the president's thinking. We're

344
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,440
Speaker 1: going to bring people who were familiar with the call,

345
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:20,960
Speaker 1: who were on the call themselves. Let them elaborate on this.

346
00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:23,280
Speaker 1: And then they brought all of these witnesses in, first

347
00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:27,240
Speaker 1: in Adam Schiff's star chamber in the secretive basement Skiff

348
00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:30,000
Speaker 1: for the Capitol Building. Then Matt Gates goes in and says,

349
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:32,360
Speaker 1: you can't do this privately. You have to do this publicly.

350
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:35,760
Speaker 1: This is you're talking about attacking a democratically elected president.

351
00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 1: Do it in public. So then they had to pivot

352
00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:42,480
Speaker 1: again start doing it in public and in public despite

353
00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:45,280
Speaker 1: all the remonstrations of CNN and The New York Times.

354
00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:49,280
Speaker 1: Actually none of the witnesses corroborated what the whistleblowers original

355
00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:52,960
Speaker 1: statement was, and none of the witnesses actually set out

356
00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:57,399
Speaker 1: anything that was illegal, that was unconstitutional, that was an

357
00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:00,640
Speaker 1: abuse of the president's power, And so now the Democrats

358
00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,879
Speaker 1: are having to pivot again. This week, we're hearing that

359
00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:09,359
Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosi is quietly attempting to build a new impeachment

360
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:12,960
Speaker 1: case around things other than Ukraine, going back to the

361
00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:16,280
Speaker 1: Muller report, going back to the Russia collusion hoax, and

362
00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:20,080
Speaker 1: of course Jerry Nadlow, who got ripped up by by

363
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:26,920
Speaker 1: Cory Lewandowski in an earlier hearing earlier this year. You know,

364
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:31,280
Speaker 1: you've seen how this Chairman of the Judiciary Committee crumbles

365
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:34,520
Speaker 1: under pressure also, And I happen to believe therefore that

366
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:38,479
Speaker 1: after Wednesday, the Democrats are again going to have to pivot,

367
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 1: and I think they may even be looking at removing

368
00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:46,520
Speaker 1: withdrawing themselves from the impeachment staff and moving just onto

369
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:50,399
Speaker 1: a censure vote against President Trump and leaving it at that,

370
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 1: because this is really harming them. It's harming them in

371
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:56,440
Speaker 1: their thirty one swing districts they have to win next year.

372
00:21:56,520 --> 00:22:01,480
Speaker 1: It's harming their presidential candidates in their primary, and it's

373
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:05,080
Speaker 1: really taking a toll on Nancy Pelosi and how the

374
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:08,720
Speaker 1: base used Nancy Pelosi because she was seeming to be

375
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:12,760
Speaker 1: pulling the line or towing the line, or Rashida Talab

376
00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:16,120
Speaker 1: but Alexander Cassio Cortez and the rest of the squad,

377
00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:19,080
Speaker 1: and it makes her look not a leader of her party,

378
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:22,080
Speaker 1: but a follower of the far left elements that doesn't

379
00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:24,119
Speaker 1: think they know what their strategy. Now. I know your

380
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:26,600
Speaker 1: podcast is war room. Let's war game. If we can

381
00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:30,960
Speaker 1: for a moment here this major decision that you got into.

382
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:34,240
Speaker 1: You alluded to briefly about the possibility of Democrats just

383
00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:38,240
Speaker 1: doing a censure vote. Wouldn't that then be viewed? And

384
00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:41,040
Speaker 1: by the way, I'm always I'm always somebody who says

385
00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 1: nobody can predict the future. I'm I would put my

386
00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:46,760
Speaker 1: certainty that they will impeach at high but who knows.

387
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:49,200
Speaker 1: And as you're pointing out, this thing is not going

388
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:52,480
Speaker 1: there's no way that Nancy Pelosi thought that this would

389
00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:55,119
Speaker 1: be where it is right now. And I think that

390
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:58,640
Speaker 1: that much is clear. If they do a censure vote, only,

391
00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:03,439
Speaker 1: isn't that then going into a reelection cycle essentially an

392
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 1: admission that this was all just political nonsense and that

393
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:08,080
Speaker 1: they didn't have the goods on them though, you know,

394
00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:10,439
Speaker 1: how do you view that component of it? I mean,

395
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:13,680
Speaker 1: at least if they go to the mat Raheem Pelosi

396
00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:17,680
Speaker 1: can say we impeached, we did what we can. Yes,

397
00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:20,480
Speaker 1: she could say that, but then remember the public will

398
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:24,000
Speaker 1: be able to see and view and read everything that

399
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:26,560
Speaker 1: comes out in the Senate trial. There will be cross

400
00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:30,520
Speaker 1: examination and cross cross examination. There will be representations at

401
00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:32,440
Speaker 1: the very highest level on all of that. So she

402
00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:36,240
Speaker 1: might even want to avoid that process if she goes

403
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:40,879
Speaker 1: for a censure and overseeing the impeachment process through. At

404
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:44,119
Speaker 1: least she can say, well, look, we got a lot

405
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 1: of very serious information of very serious players. All these

406
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,960
Speaker 1: are elected bureaucrats who are great patriots and everything that

407
00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:53,399
Speaker 1: she wants to say about them, and we had to

408
00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:56,200
Speaker 1: We were obligated to take them at their word and

409
00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:58,560
Speaker 1: have this process out. But it turned out that the

410
00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:01,440
Speaker 1: evidence was not an impeachable offense, although it was an

411
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:03,800
Speaker 1: offense that the president should be censured over. And we

412
00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:09,400
Speaker 1: take our constitutional you know, we take our constitutional obligations

413
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:12,359
Speaker 1: very seriously, and therefore that's why we're not pursuing this.

414
00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:15,240
Speaker 1: But if you want a president who's not going to

415
00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:18,320
Speaker 1: be censured for doing things on the international stage that

416
00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:19,800
Speaker 1: they shouldn't be doing, then you vote for one of

417
00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:21,760
Speaker 1: our guys next time. So at six of one and

418
00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:23,480
Speaker 1: half a dozen of the other. As far as Nancy

419
00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:26,679
Speaker 1: Pelosi's concerned, but she is probably more concerned about more

420
00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:29,639
Speaker 1: than actually losing face over the impeachment process, is actually

421
00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:32,080
Speaker 1: losing power over her own party. So she's trying to

422
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 1: weigh and measure right now, is there the appetite for

423
00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:38,280
Speaker 1: a full blown impeachment trial out there? Are these thirty

424
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:40,719
Speaker 1: one Democrats in the swing district's going to side with her?

425
00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:43,000
Speaker 1: Or are they going to actually vote a different way?

426
00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:46,560
Speaker 1: Are they going to distance themselves from party leadership, a

427
00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:49,639
Speaker 1: House leadership over this or can she do something that

428
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,920
Speaker 1: pleases all sides which might be a censure vote? What

429
00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:55,440
Speaker 1: would be the game changer from the Democrat side? Do

430
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:58,080
Speaker 1: you think that would be a realistic possibility on this

431
00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:01,280
Speaker 1: Wednesday hearing men, I saw the list of some of

432
00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:04,200
Speaker 1: the witnesses Raheem. It's as though they're trying to put

433
00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:09,160
Speaker 1: the American people to sleep. It's a constitutional law professors.

434
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:11,399
Speaker 1: That doesn't seem to me like it's going to move

435
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:13,920
Speaker 1: the needle. What could move the needle from Pula? You know,

436
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,440
Speaker 1: what is Nadler going to try to do or is

437
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:18,680
Speaker 1: you just going to repeat everything we've already heard and

438
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:22,040
Speaker 1: hope that the repetition itself becomes the argument. Well, so,

439
00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:24,239
Speaker 1: one of the things we're doing, or I'm doing as

440
00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:27,040
Speaker 1: part of my role in the War Room podcast, is

441
00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 1: going through every single document, and yesterday you had the

442
00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:34,600
Speaker 1: Republican Minority report releases one hundred and twenty three pages,

443
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:37,040
Speaker 1: and going through all of that, you can see why

444
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:42,200
Speaker 1: Republican Council Steve Caster wasn't playing up to the cameras

445
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:44,800
Speaker 1: in those public hearings over the last couple of weeks.

446
00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:48,720
Speaker 1: He was actually producing an evidentiary case because guess what,

447
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:51,840
Speaker 1: when it goes to a Senate trial, there needs to

448
00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:55,480
Speaker 1: be an evidentiary record of what happened with Ukraine. There

449
00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:57,639
Speaker 1: needs to be an evidentiary record of what happened with

450
00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:01,000
Speaker 1: all these phone calls and text messages and WhatsApp, etc. Etc.

451
00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:04,159
Speaker 1: It's one thing, which is what the Democrat Council was

452
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:07,200
Speaker 1: doing to try and pump up headlines and get CNN

453
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:10,320
Speaker 1: to run funky Chiron's about you know what this witness

454
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:14,080
Speaker 1: says is an impeachable offense or what this witness implies

455
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:18,840
Speaker 1: happened between ambassadors on London David Holmes on a terrace

456
00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:21,160
Speaker 1: at a restaurant in Ukraine after a bottle of wine.

457
00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:23,639
Speaker 1: You know, that's one thing, But the other thing is

458
00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:26,240
Speaker 1: producing the evidentiary record. So now what they're doing in

459
00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:29,240
Speaker 1: the Judiciary Committee is they are trying to backpeddle it

460
00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:32,960
Speaker 1: away from the media. Gramming headlines, putting up constitutional law

461
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 1: professors lends more towards producing an evidentiary record, or at

462
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:39,560
Speaker 1: least producing evidence to show that the press that has

463
00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:43,040
Speaker 1: somehow overstepped his constitutional role. That's why they're getting all

464
00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:46,080
Speaker 1: boring with this. They know they're losing the fight as

465
00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:50,680
Speaker 1: it pertains to the granularity and the detail of this

466
00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:54,080
Speaker 1: impeachment process. I think the big game changer is going

467
00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:58,720
Speaker 1: to be this. Look, if the Republicans manage to show

468
00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:02,160
Speaker 1: and to have any doubt cast from any of these

469
00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:06,720
Speaker 1: witnesses that say, look, maybe you disagree with the president's

470
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:09,960
Speaker 1: foreign policy and the way he went about the foreign policy,

471
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:12,639
Speaker 1: but do you see any evidence of wrongdoing, then that

472
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:15,920
Speaker 1: will be a second hit. But they did it the

473
00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:18,119
Speaker 1: last time with all these other witnesses. Remember, none of

474
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:19,880
Speaker 1: them were able to say, at the end of the day,

475
00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:22,160
Speaker 1: this was a directly appeachable offense. They just said, Oh,

476
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:24,480
Speaker 1: I didn't quite like it. It didn't really fit with

477
00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:27,240
Speaker 1: my worldview. If they managed to get this out of

478
00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:30,719
Speaker 1: the next set of witnesses, that's two strikes. Nancy Pelosi

479
00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:34,480
Speaker 1: will then have a third attempt at bat to do

480
00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:37,080
Speaker 1: something different. It might be a censure vote, it might

481
00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:40,080
Speaker 1: be pursuing a full trial, but then you know she's out.

482
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:43,920
Speaker 1: Ran Casam everybody. He is a co host of the

483
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:47,000
Speaker 1: war Room podcast with Jason Miller and Steve Van and

484
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,399
Speaker 1: they are diving deep into this every day. Right here

485
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:51,760
Speaker 1: before we let you go real quick, I just wondering Brexit.

486
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:54,080
Speaker 1: What's going on because it's been getting some headlines here

487
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:56,080
Speaker 1: and there, and then it kind of faded because the

488
00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:57,840
Speaker 1: media is so obsessed with anti Trump is and where

489
00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:01,000
Speaker 1: does it stand right now? Yeah, probably faded because we

490
00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:03,280
Speaker 1: have a general election in the UK now coming up

491
00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:06,320
Speaker 1: on December the twelfth. This is an election that's been

492
00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:08,720
Speaker 1: called because there is a deadlock in Parliament. They can't

493
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:11,800
Speaker 1: get things going either way, and so it looks like

494
00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:14,880
Speaker 1: Boris Johnson is going to be elected with a big

495
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:19,199
Speaker 1: parliamentary majority, an eighty class seat parliamentary majority, and therefore,

496
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:21,480
Speaker 1: by January the thirty first, he will be able to

497
00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:24,560
Speaker 1: take Britain out of the European Union, not perhaps in

498
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:27,520
Speaker 1: the greatest way that some of us hardline Brixiteers like

499
00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:30,280
Speaker 1: myself and Nigel Barrage would have liked, but it still

500
00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:33,080
Speaker 1: will be a leave by January the thirty first, and

501
00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:37,919
Speaker 1: I'm optimistic about that. Less optimistic about pro amnesty liberal

502
00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:40,200
Speaker 1: Boris Johnson being Prime Minister for the next five years,

503
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:42,320
Speaker 1: but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it. Well,

504
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:44,200
Speaker 1: it looks like Brexit might actually be happening. Isn't that

505
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 1: kind of amazing because the elite media seems to have

506
00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:49,760
Speaker 1: thought that they'd be able to just change this by

507
00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:53,400
Speaker 1: telling us that it's so bad. Nothing more powerful than

508
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:56,560
Speaker 1: the will of the people, rightim Cassam, Everybody War Room

509
00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:59,040
Speaker 1: is the podcast. It's on iTunes. Check it out. Rheim,

510
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:01,600
Speaker 1: thanks so much, my friend, Thank you. We rolled back

511
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:05,680
Speaker 1: the Obama administrations cuddling up to Cuba by applying heavy

512
00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:09,920
Speaker 1: new sanctions. We've recognized that engagement has not improved Cuba's

513
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:12,000
Speaker 1: regime and hasn't made it better. The human rights record

514
00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:14,680
Speaker 1: was worse. The risk to the Cuban people was worse

515
00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:16,640
Speaker 1: than the risk of the United States was worse and

516
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:20,280
Speaker 1: their capacity to influence Venezuela even greater. So we've changed that.

517
00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:24,400
Speaker 1: We've allowed Americans to seek justice by suing the regime

518
00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:27,640
Speaker 1: in Havana to recover property that it stole a long

519
00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 1: time ago. It only makes sense when Americans had their

520
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:32,600
Speaker 1: stuff stolen, to give them a chance to get it back.

521
00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:36,720
Speaker 1: And we've applauded countries that have expelled Cubans who have

522
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:40,160
Speaker 1: come to live as doctors inside of their borders, who

523
00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:43,560
Speaker 1: were really working on behalf of the government. These doctors.

524
00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:46,440
Speaker 1: This is a program that's hard to fathom. Sometimes they

525
00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:51,800
Speaker 1: send doctors to countries all around the world. They traffic

526
00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:56,280
Speaker 1: to generate income for the Cuban leadership. So the doctors

527
00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:59,400
Speaker 1: received ten or twenty percent of the revenue that they generate,

528
00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:04,520
Speaker 1: and the rist to fund the Cuban regime, posing up

529
00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:07,920
Speaker 1: to dictators. Right, That's what you always hear about Trump

530
00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:12,400
Speaker 1: from the mainstream media. And yet when you look back

531
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:15,920
Speaker 1: at the record of the president that was elevated by

532
00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:19,200
Speaker 1: the media as some kind of god king Barack Obama,

533
00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:24,600
Speaker 1: turns out that he had quite a fondness in action

534
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:30,360
Speaker 1: as a matter of policy, for dictators and regimes that

535
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:35,280
Speaker 1: do not deserve anything in terms of concessions from America.

536
00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:36,920
Speaker 1: You see, this is where they always blur the lines.

537
00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 1: You look at what's going on with North Korea. President

538
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:42,600
Speaker 1: Trump has tried to so far unsuccessfully and let's be honest,

539
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:49,000
Speaker 1: but has tried to create the basic interpersonal framework for

540
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:52,760
Speaker 1: some kind of a grand bargain with North Korea. Have

541
00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:55,040
Speaker 1: any of the sanctions been lifted in North Korea? No,

542
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:57,560
Speaker 1: In fact, the sanctions are stronger than they've ever been.

543
00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:02,080
Speaker 1: Has there been any concession made to North Korea? As

544
00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:05,239
Speaker 1: a matter of policy? Do we not still board their

545
00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:07,200
Speaker 1: ships on the high seas and make sure that they're

546
00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:11,440
Speaker 1: not engaged in illegal trade, particularly contraband black market trade

547
00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:15,239
Speaker 1: for missiles and other aspects of the arms trade. Make

548
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:19,040
Speaker 1: sure they're not selling anything in violation of the crippling

549
00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:21,480
Speaker 1: sanctions on the country. Don't we still do all of that?

550
00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:26,600
Speaker 1: All Trump has done has said or spoken about Kim

551
00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:30,160
Speaker 1: John Gunn said some weird things, no question, but spoken

552
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:35,040
Speaker 1: about him and spoken to him. With Iran, the Obama

553
00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 1: administration came along and said, hey, so you don't have

554
00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:41,320
Speaker 1: to do anything that's really difficult for you, and we're

555
00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:43,280
Speaker 1: going to give you. We're actually going to deliver to

556
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:46,600
Speaker 1: you huge palettes of US cash which you can then

557
00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:49,360
Speaker 1: fund your terror regime with. And we're going to make

558
00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:52,680
Speaker 1: sure that neither the Israelis nor anybody else would be

559
00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:56,760
Speaker 1: able to make a strike on your nuclear facilities because

560
00:31:56,800 --> 00:31:59,360
Speaker 1: you'll be under the ages. You'll be under the protection

561
00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:03,760
Speaker 1: of this international deal that the Obama administration with European

562
00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 1: countries that have a long legacy of failure in the

563
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:12,640
Speaker 1: Middle East, thought was a good idea. That's giving stuff

564
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 1: for nothing in return. We got nothing in return from Iran.

565
00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:19,000
Speaker 1: They have centerfuges that they could turn on, they could

566
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:21,160
Speaker 1: turn them off. That doesn't that's not enough, that's not

567
00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:28,280
Speaker 1: a concession. With Cuba, you're the same situation. The Obama

568
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:32,120
Speaker 1: administration has decided we've been mean enough to Cuba for

569
00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:35,880
Speaker 1: long enough. There's really no reason for us to take

570
00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:39,120
Speaker 1: the approach that we have to do anything about Cuba anymore,

571
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:41,880
Speaker 1: or we should do a lot less. Let's be buddy

572
00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:47,760
Speaker 1: buddy with Cuba, with Castro's dictatorship, which continues, by the way,

573
00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:51,480
Speaker 1: to be an enormous thorn in our side. Not just

574
00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:56,000
Speaker 1: and when it comes to Cuban specific policy, but also

575
00:32:56,120 --> 00:33:00,240
Speaker 1: with countries like Venezuela, wherever the worst elements, the worst

576
00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:05,080
Speaker 1: political elements are operating, you know, the Marxist, communist, socialist

577
00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:08,680
Speaker 1: revolutionary types in the Western Hemisphere and here in North

578
00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:12,239
Speaker 1: and South America or anywhere for that matter, you can

579
00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:16,600
Speaker 1: often find the hand of the Cuban regime. They are

580
00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 1: running a totalitarian prison camp on that island, and they

581
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:23,240
Speaker 1: love to export that anywhere else they can, and they

582
00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:28,200
Speaker 1: also like to leverage relationships with other brutal dictatorial types

583
00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:31,240
Speaker 1: in order to stay in power themselves, Venezuela being a

584
00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:36,800
Speaker 1: very good example of that. Despite the Jack Ryan movie

585
00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:42,440
Speaker 1: where their hero at Venezuela is the female social justice warrior,

586
00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:46,360
Speaker 1: yeah that's really the and the bad guys are those

587
00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:52,560
Speaker 1: right wing military types. Yeah they're the scary tale. Or

588
00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:55,680
Speaker 1: maybe the bad guy's social justice warrior Namaduro, who has

589
00:33:55,720 --> 00:34:02,640
Speaker 1: destroyed that country, been responsible for unimaginable deprivation and misery

590
00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:07,760
Speaker 1: and despair. But Cuba is a bad regime. Didn't get

591
00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:12,320
Speaker 1: any better despite the concessions the extended hand from the

592
00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:16,759
Speaker 1: Obama administration, because ultimately there's just an ideological affinity for

593
00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:19,760
Speaker 1: Cuba that comes from a left in this country. In America,

594
00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:21,440
Speaker 1: we have a lot of people who are Democrats, but

595
00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:25,560
Speaker 1: they're really socialists, and they see socialists trying so hard

596
00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:29,280
Speaker 1: to bring about that utopian society on the island of Cuba,

597
00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:32,520
Speaker 1: and yeah, they can admit that it hasn't gone according

598
00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:37,600
Speaker 1: to plan, but they still harbor this fondness for them.

599
00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:42,200
Speaker 1: Socialists tend to like other socialists. Is the really straightforward

600
00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:45,200
Speaker 1: way to look at this, and that's what we're dealing with,

601
00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:48,080
Speaker 1: what we were dealing with with the Obama administration in Cuba.

602
00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:51,279
Speaker 1: Secretary of State Pompeo seems to be setting it right now.

603
00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:54,439
Speaker 1: You won't see much of the media covering this, though,

604
00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:58,879
Speaker 1: will you, because it would be yet another Obama administration

605
00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:01,200
Speaker 1: foreign policy failure that has to be set right by

606
00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:05,479
Speaker 1: the Trump administration. I understand it can be a little

607
00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:08,279
Speaker 1: bit awkward when you have to think about life insurance.

608
00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:11,000
Speaker 1: You don't want to have to consider what would be unthinkable,

609
00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:14,000
Speaker 1: but you have to prepare for an uncertain future and

610
00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:16,759
Speaker 1: make sure that your family is safe and secure. I've

611
00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:19,520
Speaker 1: gone through this process myself. It's something you need to

612
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:21,839
Speaker 1: do and you should go to the place that makes

613
00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:25,600
Speaker 1: it easy for you. No hassle. That's Ethos Life Insurance.

614
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:28,239
Speaker 1: Ethos is modern life insurance for people who just don't

Speaker 1: countdown for the Inspector General report from the FBI d

628
00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:18,160
Speaker 1: OJ on possible FIZA abuse fies of the Foreign Intelligence

629
00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:23,520
Speaker 1: Surveillance Act meant to catch spies and terrorists and somehow

630
00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:30,320
Speaker 1: deployed against Carter Page, who you could say is among

631
00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:34,560
Speaker 1: the most unlikely assets of a foreign government you could

632
00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:40,080
Speaker 1: find anywhere. Carter Page, who was a cooperative witness and

633
00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:44,640
Speaker 1: just an all around helpful guy to the FBI to

634
00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:48,480
Speaker 1: nail some other Russians before. So, if you were already

635
00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:51,960
Speaker 1: on the FBI's radar and you've had to help them

636
00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:56,600
Speaker 1: in another case involving possible intelligence activities of a foreign

637
00:36:56,800 --> 00:37:00,120
Speaker 1: government against the United States, you're going to try to

638
00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:04,960
Speaker 1: get the Russians to meddle in a presidential election, get

639
00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:10,360
Speaker 1: to coordinate with a presidential campaign. This is something that

640
00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:16,480
Speaker 1: only delusional or stupid people could believe. And yet, guess what,

641
00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:22,640
Speaker 1: when that Inspector General report comes out next week, there

642
00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:26,160
Speaker 1: will be a whole lot of people who are claiming

643
00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:31,719
Speaker 1: that it exonerates the FBI, that it means nothing was

644
00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:38,200
Speaker 1: done wrong, even though carter Page had a FISA collection

645
00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:42,200
Speaker 1: done on him, which to any normal, any sane person,

646
00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:48,640
Speaker 1: is obviously absurd. I will still never forget when carter

647
00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:51,719
Speaker 1: Page sat next to me, and which is before I

648
00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:53,880
Speaker 1: interviewed him the first time, and he told me that

649
00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:56,319
Speaker 1: he met my dad at an event in New York

650
00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:59,160
Speaker 1: City of all things, and my dad was like, who

651
00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:02,759
Speaker 1: but carter Page. It turned out he actually did meet

652
00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:06,600
Speaker 1: him briefly. They shook heads or something, but it was

653
00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:09,959
Speaker 1: quite a quite an interesting broment. What a small world

654
00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:13,080
Speaker 1: we live in. Carter Page is not a Russian spy.

655
00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:16,759
Speaker 1: In fact, there was never even an allegation of any

656
00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:21,279
Speaker 1: criminal They couldn't even concoct a theory of criminal wrongdoing

657
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:24,879
Speaker 1: against Carter Page. And yet a US citizen had all

658
00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:28,399
Speaker 1: of his communications, cell phone records, emails, text messages, all

659
00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:34,719
Speaker 1: of that just grabbed by the federal government because a

660
00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:39,600
Speaker 1: few FBI agents were hysterical around this conspiracy theory that

661
00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:42,960
Speaker 1: was really coming from the Hillary Clinton campaign. That's let

662
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:44,560
Speaker 1: me skip to the end of the story for all

663
00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:46,600
Speaker 1: of you. What we will find out and I think

664
00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:48,640
Speaker 1: we'll find out from the Durham report. I'm not sure

665
00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:50,920
Speaker 1: if it'll be before after the twenty twenty election though.

666
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:56,000
Speaker 1: Remember this is Inspector General Horowitz at the DJFBI. What

667
00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:59,800
Speaker 1: we will find out from the attorney US Attorney Durham,

668
00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:04,360
Speaker 1: who is a lawyer's lawyer or prosecutor's prosecutor according to

669
00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:07,000
Speaker 1: both sides of the aisle up to this point, well

670
00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:09,800
Speaker 1: you'll find out from eventually is that the Hillary Clinton

671
00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:13,000
Speaker 1: campaign got this whole thing start. That there's whole Russia, Russia, Russia.

672
00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:18,240
Speaker 1: It really had its origins in the Hillary Clinton campaign.

673
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:22,160
Speaker 1: That this was a Hillary info up against Trump, and

674
00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:27,040
Speaker 1: that because people are such wild eyed left wing partisans,

675
00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:32,800
Speaker 1: because Democrats have become such petty totalitarians, they seized on

676
00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:35,759
Speaker 1: this and then abused their power in whatever ways they could,

677
00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:38,799
Speaker 1: either in the press or in the government, to run

678
00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:42,640
Speaker 1: with this theory, to pursue this theory, to really almost

679
00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:47,840
Speaker 1: overturn the results of an election based on this theory,

680
00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:51,239
Speaker 1: and it came from the Clinton camp very early on.

681
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:54,799
Speaker 1: That is my prediction to you as to where all

682
00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:57,680
Speaker 1: of us is heading, although it'll be some time before

683
00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:01,120
Speaker 1: we get there. What are we going to find out

684
00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:05,080
Speaker 1: about the Inspector General report, Well, let's just remember a

685
00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:10,879
Speaker 1: few things before we before we do our pregame analysis

686
00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:14,840
Speaker 1: here of everything, let's remember that the Inspector General in

687
00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:20,719
Speaker 1: this case, Horowitz, was an Obama appointee who oversaw a

688
00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:24,560
Speaker 1: five hundred plus page report on Hillary Clinton's emails that

689
00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:32,399
Speaker 1: was absolutely full of political bias, and Horowitz concluded, as

690
00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:37,080
Speaker 1: if by magic, that all of that bias in no

691
00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:42,160
Speaker 1: way affected the decisions that the Department of Justice made

692
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:46,759
Speaker 1: about Hillary Clinton's emails. I am here to tell you,

693
00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:49,880
Speaker 1: and you won't want to hear this. Probably I'm here

694
00:40:49,920 --> 00:40:54,200
Speaker 1: to tell you that you should get ready for round

695
00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:58,120
Speaker 1: two of this. What you will likely see in this

696
00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:03,160
Speaker 1: Inspector General report is a whole lot of dubious decision making.

697
00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:07,640
Speaker 1: Just like with the press, right, the press gets stories wrong,

698
00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:13,319
Speaker 1: but the stories they get wrong are overwhelmingly are overwhelmingly

699
00:41:13,920 --> 00:41:16,960
Speaker 1: I would even argue entirely when it pertains to Trump

700
00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:21,120
Speaker 1: anti Trump. It's always anti Trump stories. You will see

701
00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:24,920
Speaker 1: that the mistakes that the decision making at the FBI,

702
00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:27,719
Speaker 1: and you know fbis within DJ but I'll use these

703
00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:30,560
Speaker 1: go back and forth over these that the decisions made

704
00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:36,480
Speaker 1: in the Department of Justice about this FISA warrant and

705
00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:42,200
Speaker 1: this baseline theory that the Trump campaign was somehow colluding

706
00:41:42,239 --> 00:41:46,040
Speaker 1: with Russia, the decisions made through all of that. The

707
00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:49,400
Speaker 1: truth is, my friends, that they were all somehow negative.

708
00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:52,239
Speaker 1: The bad decisions were negative for Trump. Doesn't mean it

709
00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:56,440
Speaker 1: was illegal. But you know, the tie goes to the runner, Well,

710
00:41:56,480 --> 00:41:59,319
Speaker 1: the tie goes to the anti Trump deep state here

711
00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:01,799
Speaker 1: every time, that's what's going to happen. So you'll see

712
00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:05,080
Speaker 1: this pattern of yeah, we gotta get this fizy, Yeah,

713
00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:06,640
Speaker 1: we gotta, we gotta do whatever we gotta do. We

714
00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:10,720
Speaker 1: gotta stack it with the dossier. No one verifies anything, Doscia.

715
00:42:10,719 --> 00:42:12,239
Speaker 1: It turns out the dossier is all crap and it's

716
00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:15,799
Speaker 1: a Hillary Clinton opposition document. You're gonna include that. Oh,

717
00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:19,000
Speaker 1: but you know, the excuse there is that the FBI

718
00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:24,400
Speaker 1: agents involved were lazy and stupid enough to believe the dossier. Okay,

719
00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:28,319
Speaker 1: they're not bad people, they're just dumb and lazy. That's

720
00:42:28,360 --> 00:42:31,759
Speaker 1: going to be the excuse implicit in what comes out

721
00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:35,320
Speaker 1: on this report. That's what they're going to fall back on.

722
00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:40,680
Speaker 1: The bureaucracy, you see, is not tainted. It's just inept.

723
00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:44,360
Speaker 1: It's just not very good at what it's supposed to do.

724
00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:48,759
Speaker 1: But that they can live with. You know, that's cost

725
00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:56,800
Speaker 1: of doing business. Isn't that interesting? There is one wild

726
00:42:56,920 --> 00:43:01,160
Speaker 1: card in this scenario, though, you see. They know that

727
00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:04,040
Speaker 1: they can count on Horowitz to be an institutionalist, to

728
00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:08,640
Speaker 1: be somebody who wants to defend the edifice of the

729
00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:12,560
Speaker 1: Department of Justice. It's so easy to convince yourself if

730
00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:15,359
Speaker 1: you work in these government agencies. I work for the CIA, man,

731
00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:18,719
Speaker 1: I know, it's so easy to say, well, even if

732
00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:21,319
Speaker 1: we colored a little bit outside the lines here, even

733
00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:24,440
Speaker 1: if this looks a little shady and shakes the faith

734
00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:28,600
Speaker 1: of the American people that these bureaucrats who are empowered

735
00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:32,919
Speaker 1: for very specific ends do in fact abuse those ends

736
00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:39,160
Speaker 1: for partisan reasons. We still really need these places. We

737
00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:43,280
Speaker 1: really need the Department of Justice, we need the FBI,

738
00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:47,400
Speaker 1: we need all these different seventeen members of the intelligence community.

739
00:43:48,320 --> 00:43:51,759
Speaker 1: And because we need them, if we have to give

740
00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:55,920
Speaker 1: them more than the benefit of the doubt, if we

741
00:43:56,080 --> 00:43:59,640
Speaker 1: have to look the other way, yet, what are reasonable

742
00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:06,759
Speaker 1: rational person would understand as malfeasance, Well then that's just

743
00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:10,480
Speaker 1: the price of protecting these institutions. I noticed this is

744
00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:14,839
Speaker 1: different than even somebody inside the bureaucracy who is left wing,

745
00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:20,319
Speaker 1: who is ideologically willing to you know, the Lauretta Lynch approach. Yeah,

746
00:44:20,320 --> 00:44:22,560
Speaker 1: I'm gonna meet with Bill Clinton on the tarmac, pretend

747
00:44:22,640 --> 00:44:27,000
Speaker 1: it was a non secuit or conversation. Who cares all

748
00:44:27,080 --> 00:44:30,439
Speaker 1: an accident. You know, I don't know what was said there,

749
00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:35,440
Speaker 1: but she didn't want anyone else to know either. There

750
00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:41,640
Speaker 1: are ideologues inside the bureaucracy, people that clearly take the

751
00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:44,840
Speaker 1: power that they have to try to help Team Democrat,

752
00:44:44,960 --> 00:44:48,760
Speaker 1: help the left, help the socialists inside this country. Because

753
00:44:48,840 --> 00:44:52,360
Speaker 1: they are the party of the state. But then you

754
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:56,160
Speaker 1: just have people who are not necessarily and I don't

755
00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:58,200
Speaker 1: know enough about Horowitz to make the determination as to

756
00:44:58,320 --> 00:45:01,520
Speaker 1: which one of these camps he falls into, although he'll

757
00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:03,960
Speaker 1: be in one of them. And we know this because

758
00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:08,920
Speaker 1: of the Hillary email report was a giant a monument

759
00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:15,600
Speaker 1: to political bias. Political bias everywhere, that's clear. But did

760
00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:19,360
Speaker 1: that bias affect the decision making? This would be like

761
00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:24,160
Speaker 1: somebody saying to you, Hey, you know this federal judge

762
00:45:24,280 --> 00:45:27,680
Speaker 1: is presiding over this case. He's on tape the week

763
00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:32,120
Speaker 1: before he started presiding over the trial saying that the

764
00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:38,040
Speaker 1: defendant is a moron, an idiot. Smells bad, terrible. But

765
00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:41,719
Speaker 1: even though all of the judgments during the case made

766
00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:45,040
Speaker 1: by the judge went against this defendant, we have no

767
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:51,200
Speaker 1: clear evidence that the bias that the judge established beforehand

768
00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:57,279
Speaker 1: influenced any of those decisions. That is exactly what the

769
00:45:57,360 --> 00:45:59,960
Speaker 1: DJ did with Hillary's emails. Now you would probably say,

770
00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:03,279
Speaker 1: I mean, back hold on, a second federal judge would

771
00:46:03,320 --> 00:46:05,960
Speaker 1: have to recuse himself. Oh, you mean like Lauretta Lynch

772
00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:10,120
Speaker 1: recused herself, by the way, as the attorney general from

773
00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:12,800
Speaker 1: the Hillary Oh no, she never recused herself from that.

774
00:46:12,920 --> 00:46:16,320
Speaker 1: Did she remember how the Democrats play the game? Remember

775
00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:19,399
Speaker 1: how we play. We have all these Republicans who are

776
00:46:19,719 --> 00:46:23,880
Speaker 1: these little suck ups in the classroom who run around, Oh,

777
00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:26,960
Speaker 1: I never play rough. Oh well, the teacher give me

778
00:46:27,040 --> 00:46:28,600
Speaker 1: a pat on the head. You know, they're tending to

779
00:46:28,640 --> 00:46:30,200
Speaker 1: be never trumpers, and this is what they do. They

780
00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:33,839
Speaker 1: run around. Oh, how could we be so so harsh

781
00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:35,680
Speaker 1: with the other side while the other side of just

782
00:46:35,880 --> 00:46:38,359
Speaker 1: pounding our faces into the pavement all the time. That's

783
00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:40,200
Speaker 1: how the left plays the game, and we walk around, Oh,

784
00:46:40,480 --> 00:46:42,160
Speaker 1: we have people on our side. Why are we being

785
00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:45,160
Speaker 1: so Why does Trump say the mean things about the Democrats.

786
00:46:46,440 --> 00:46:50,719
Speaker 1: I'm glad somebody does. It's about time. But they don't

787
00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:53,000
Speaker 1: recuse themselves from these things. They want to make sure

788
00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:55,040
Speaker 1: they maintain control and they can keep the pressure on

789
00:46:55,120 --> 00:47:00,279
Speaker 1: their opponents. This is what you're going to see play

790
00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:04,600
Speaker 1: out once again. Though the judge who says he hates

791
00:47:04,680 --> 00:47:08,200
Speaker 1: somebody then is in the trial makes every decision against

792
00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:09,880
Speaker 1: that person. But at the end of the day, you

793
00:47:10,080 --> 00:47:13,520
Speaker 1: can claim you can't prove that the judge made all

794
00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:16,080
Speaker 1: those decisions because he hated the person, right that this

795
00:47:16,320 --> 00:47:18,800
Speaker 1: is what you're going to see in this Inspector General report.

796
00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:21,560
Speaker 1: This is my prediction for you. There'll be some Yes,

797
00:47:21,800 --> 00:47:24,439
Speaker 1: someone change some stuff here, but you know, they change

798
00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:29,440
Speaker 1: stuff to make the warrant the FIES are warrant application stronger,

799
00:47:30,320 --> 00:47:32,480
Speaker 1: which is negative for Trump of course, and the Trump campaign.

800
00:47:32,520 --> 00:47:34,520
Speaker 1: Then it would have otherwise been and you know, maybe

801
00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:36,440
Speaker 1: they didn't do as much due diligence. They kind of

802
00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:38,440
Speaker 1: ram through all this stuff just so they can get

803
00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:41,840
Speaker 1: the FIES in going because remember, what if what if

804
00:47:41,880 --> 00:47:44,840
Speaker 1: things had turned out a little bit differently. We always

805
00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:48,560
Speaker 1: think about Russia collusion and the possibility that using carter

806
00:47:48,760 --> 00:47:54,160
Speaker 1: Page would have been a way to backdoor get access

807
00:47:54,239 --> 00:47:56,840
Speaker 1: to anyone that in the Trump campaign orbit that he

808
00:47:56,880 --> 00:47:59,880
Speaker 1: had spoken to and any information he may have about

809
00:47:59,880 --> 00:48:04,120
Speaker 1: the alleged Russia collusion. But what if they had found

810
00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:10,080
Speaker 1: something else, What if there was some other criminality or

811
00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:13,200
Speaker 1: collusion of some kind of what if there were campaign

812
00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:16,640
Speaker 1: finance anything that they could have found in this whole process.

813
00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:18,239
Speaker 1: Look at how they went after a Manaphort, look at

814
00:48:18,239 --> 00:48:22,080
Speaker 1: how they're going after Roger Stone. You think they would

815
00:48:22,080 --> 00:48:26,400
Speaker 1: have overlooked this was a way to get a fantastic,

816
00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:29,920
Speaker 1: wide open access to somebody in constant contact with the

817
00:48:29,960 --> 00:48:35,160
Speaker 1: Trump campaign, in different senior members of that campaign, and

818
00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:38,319
Speaker 1: to do so on a fishing expedition, and to think

819
00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:40,680
Speaker 1: that it would all be kept secret by the way,

820
00:48:42,200 --> 00:48:45,880
Speaker 1: which as we know now it will not be. This

821
00:48:46,160 --> 00:48:50,440
Speaker 1: is a perfect way to bring down a presidential campaign

822
00:48:50,560 --> 00:48:51,960
Speaker 1: or to bring down a president And this is what

823
00:48:52,040 --> 00:48:58,080
Speaker 1: the other side did. But there is one wrinkle in

824
00:48:58,320 --> 00:49:03,040
Speaker 1: the left's plans here, I said, Horowitz will not will

825
00:49:03,120 --> 00:49:06,600
Speaker 1: not allow for there to be any real consequences or

826
00:49:06,640 --> 00:49:09,920
Speaker 1: accountability for the FBI won't allow it. It's not going

827
00:49:09,960 --> 00:49:13,000
Speaker 1: to happen. It doesn't matter what's there. He already said,

828
00:49:13,120 --> 00:49:17,080
Speaker 1: Lisa Page showed us that we can't really trust the

829
00:49:17,200 --> 00:49:20,279
Speaker 1: FBI or raise us. I forget the verbiage raises core

830
00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:22,839
Speaker 1: issues of trust the FBI. We already know that's there.

831
00:49:23,880 --> 00:49:25,040
Speaker 1: But now we look at the rest of them. We

832
00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:28,880
Speaker 1: said to ourselves, hold on a second. They're going to

833
00:49:28,920 --> 00:49:31,880
Speaker 1: present us with all this evidence of bias and wrongdoing

834
00:49:32,239 --> 00:49:33,560
Speaker 1: and then they're going to claim that there was no

835
00:49:33,640 --> 00:49:36,040
Speaker 1: bias or wrongdoing. That's what's going to happen here again,

836
00:49:36,120 --> 00:49:40,480
Speaker 1: isn't it? And the answer is Yes, that's what I'm

837
00:49:40,480 --> 00:49:42,480
Speaker 1: telling you to get ready for. But there's one problem.

838
00:49:44,719 --> 00:49:47,719
Speaker 1: They're not the only ones who get to shape the

839
00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:51,040
Speaker 1: narrative here. There's another individual, as you know, one of

840
00:49:51,120 --> 00:49:54,960
Speaker 1: my favorites in the administration, another individual out there who

841
00:49:55,239 --> 00:50:00,200
Speaker 1: knows this game very well and probably saved Trump's presidents seal,

842
00:50:00,239 --> 00:50:02,640
Speaker 1: though we don't often talk about it that way, because

843
00:50:02,719 --> 00:50:06,680
Speaker 1: he knows the ambush that the left had had set

844
00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:08,920
Speaker 1: for this president. He understands what they were doing, he

845
00:50:09,040 --> 00:50:12,719
Speaker 1: knows what the dirty politics were, and that man, his

846
00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:16,439
Speaker 1: Attorney General Bar the story in the Washington Post says

847
00:50:16,440 --> 00:50:21,720
Speaker 1: it all my friends, Bar disputes key Inspector General finding

848
00:50:21,880 --> 00:50:28,200
Speaker 1: about FBI's Russia investigation from the Washington Post. We know

849
00:50:28,400 --> 00:50:32,920
Speaker 1: exactly what's going on here. This is the story published yesterday.

850
00:50:32,960 --> 00:50:37,120
Speaker 1: Attorney General William P. Barr has told the associates he

851
00:50:37,200 --> 00:50:40,320
Speaker 1: disagrees with the Justice Departments Inspector General on one of

852
00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:43,240
Speaker 1: the key findings in an upcoming report that the FBI

853
00:50:43,360 --> 00:50:46,320
Speaker 1: had enough information in July twenty sixteen to justify launching

854
00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:51,080
Speaker 1: an investigation into members of the Trump campaign. According to

855
00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:55,360
Speaker 1: people familiar with the matter, the Justice Department Inspector General

856
00:50:55,480 --> 00:50:57,880
Speaker 1: Michael Horowitz is due to release his long awaited findings,

857
00:50:58,360 --> 00:51:00,840
Speaker 1: but behind the scenes of the DJ disagreement at service

858
00:51:00,880 --> 00:51:03,960
Speaker 1: about one of horow It's essential conclusions on the origins

859
00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:07,160
Speaker 1: of the Russian investigation. The discord could be the prelude

860
00:51:07,160 --> 00:51:09,960
Speaker 1: to a major fissure within financial law enforcement on the

861
00:51:10,040 --> 00:51:15,440
Speaker 1: controversial question of investigating a presidential campaign. Barr has not

862
00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:20,920
Speaker 1: been swayed by Horowitz is rationale for concluding that the

863
00:51:21,080 --> 00:51:24,439
Speaker 1: FBI had sufvision basis to open an investigation on July

864
00:51:24,600 --> 00:51:29,120
Speaker 1: thirty one, twenty sixteen. My friends, this is the Achilles

865
00:51:29,239 --> 00:51:32,479
Speaker 1: heel of the whole situation. What have I been saying

866
00:51:32,480 --> 00:51:36,520
Speaker 1: to you now for years? Mueller didn't even touch this.

867
00:51:36,680 --> 00:51:39,560
Speaker 1: Why how did this whole thing get started? Where did

868
00:51:39,600 --> 00:51:43,440
Speaker 1: this come from? Or we're to believe that they just

869
00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:48,880
Speaker 1: happened to have people near Papadopolis, But Papadopolis happened to

870
00:51:48,960 --> 00:51:54,120
Speaker 1: say a thing that Plice, We're not idiots. They had

871
00:51:54,160 --> 00:51:59,280
Speaker 1: set up to get Papadopolis before this conversation he allegedly

872
00:51:59,320 --> 00:52:03,800
Speaker 1: had with Downer in a bar in the UK. I

873
00:52:03,840 --> 00:52:08,359
Speaker 1: believe papadop is running for a congress. By the way, yes,

874
00:52:09,160 --> 00:52:12,920
Speaker 1: that's what they believe that they want us to believe

875
00:52:13,040 --> 00:52:18,120
Speaker 1: that Bar knows. This is going to be the critical question.

876
00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:21,839
Speaker 1: There will be all this information presented, and people who

877
00:52:21,880 --> 00:52:24,719
Speaker 1: are very invested in this will tell you they will

878
00:52:24,760 --> 00:52:28,000
Speaker 1: feign stupidity, they will feign an abject lack of judgment,

879
00:52:28,200 --> 00:52:31,640
Speaker 1: and they will say to you that the Russia collusion

880
00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:36,839
Speaker 1: investigation was a duly predicated investigation from the start, meaning

881
00:52:36,880 --> 00:52:40,680
Speaker 1: that there was something other than political malice as the

882
00:52:40,760 --> 00:52:45,600
Speaker 1: real motivation for looking into all of this. Bar is

883
00:52:45,640 --> 00:52:47,840
Speaker 1: going to look at this according to support, and I

884
00:52:47,920 --> 00:52:51,640
Speaker 1: believe in say not so fast. You're going to investigate

885
00:52:51,920 --> 00:52:55,840
Speaker 1: a presidential campaign based on what a very low level

886
00:52:57,080 --> 00:52:59,800
Speaker 1: advisory member of the campaign says to a guy in

887
00:52:59,840 --> 00:53:03,359
Speaker 1: a bar in the UK. You're gonna do You're gonna

888
00:53:03,400 --> 00:53:07,719
Speaker 1: make that call. You're then going to get FISA on

889
00:53:07,960 --> 00:53:11,920
Speaker 1: another low level member of an advisory board of the

890
00:53:12,040 --> 00:53:18,600
Speaker 1: Trump campaign. Really, and you're gonna act like that's fair.

891
00:53:18,680 --> 00:53:21,480
Speaker 1: I mean, look, you know you have people to walk

892
00:53:21,520 --> 00:53:24,880
Speaker 1: into police stations across the country and say that you know,

893
00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:27,239
Speaker 1: Elvis is in their shower and Osama bin Laden is

894
00:53:27,280 --> 00:53:31,040
Speaker 1: hiding under their bed. If you sent in a squat

895
00:53:31,120 --> 00:53:34,040
Speaker 1: team kicked in the front door and shot a couple

896
00:53:34,080 --> 00:53:36,320
Speaker 1: of people. Because you're doing a ray to find Elvis

897
00:53:36,360 --> 00:53:39,920
Speaker 1: and Osama, people would want to ask some questions like

898
00:53:40,120 --> 00:53:44,759
Speaker 1: what the heck are you doing? That is going to

899
00:53:44,880 --> 00:53:47,560
Speaker 1: be what we are faced with by the f behind now.

900
00:53:47,880 --> 00:53:50,120
Speaker 1: They were going to want us to believe they made

901
00:53:50,239 --> 00:53:54,239
Speaker 1: stupid decisions in good faith, not because of politics, and

902
00:53:54,400 --> 00:53:56,239
Speaker 1: bar is going to look at them it sounds like,

903
00:53:56,360 --> 00:54:00,120
Speaker 1: and say, not so fast, we know what you're up to.

904
00:54:01,160 --> 00:54:05,840
Speaker 1: This whole thing was in fact a hoax, an ambush,

905
00:54:06,239 --> 00:54:08,279
Speaker 1: and a scam. So people are making a lot of

906
00:54:08,320 --> 00:54:11,479
Speaker 1: jokes about Bloomberg getting into the race at this point,

907
00:54:12,160 --> 00:54:18,359
Speaker 1: and it turns out that Mayor Bloomberg has jumped into

908
00:54:18,719 --> 00:54:21,719
Speaker 1: in a very crowded field, fifth place according to the

909
00:54:21,960 --> 00:54:23,680
Speaker 1: most recent poll I've seen right away is that like

910
00:54:23,760 --> 00:54:27,880
Speaker 1: six percent ahead of Kamala Harris. S tells you a

911
00:54:27,920 --> 00:54:32,240
Speaker 1: lot about the media's love affair with the Harris campaign.

912
00:54:32,800 --> 00:54:34,880
Speaker 1: Is that's gonna have to come to an end at

913
00:54:34,960 --> 00:54:39,680
Speaker 1: some point. There is really just no way that anyone's

914
00:54:39,680 --> 00:54:41,360
Speaker 1: going to be able to continue to pretend that she is,

915
00:54:41,400 --> 00:54:44,200
Speaker 1: as she once referred to herself, a top tier candidate.

916
00:54:45,400 --> 00:54:48,200
Speaker 1: She is not a top tier candidate. But this is

917
00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:52,960
Speaker 1: what the messages that we're getting from we're getting from

918
00:54:54,040 --> 00:54:58,839
Speaker 1: the Democrat voters who are being pulled here. They all

919
00:54:58,960 --> 00:55:02,200
Speaker 1: know thing and one thing only. They don't want Trump

920
00:55:02,280 --> 00:55:05,840
Speaker 1: to be president. After that, it gets very hazy for

921
00:55:05,960 --> 00:55:09,720
Speaker 1: a lot of them, because no person could look anyone

922
00:55:09,760 --> 00:55:12,879
Speaker 1: else in the eye with seriousness and say, yeah, Joe

923
00:55:13,080 --> 00:55:17,520
Speaker 1: Biden's the great Joe Biden the future of America. And

924
00:55:17,719 --> 00:55:23,239
Speaker 1: there was a cartoon circulating yesterday where somebody, a brilliant cartoonist,

925
00:55:23,880 --> 00:55:27,080
Speaker 1: created this little cartoon just set that Joe Biden. Yeah,

926
00:55:27,120 --> 00:55:29,600
Speaker 1: and I got hair on my legs, and my legs

927
00:55:29,640 --> 00:55:31,640
Speaker 1: are the blonde hair and the hair is sticking up,

928
00:55:31,719 --> 00:55:34,600
Speaker 1: sticking up, staring at the sky, sun shining down on

929
00:55:34,680 --> 00:55:37,399
Speaker 1: the legs. Little kids hopping around, dumping on my lap.

930
00:55:37,480 --> 00:55:40,040
Speaker 1: I love it because my blonde leg hairs like all

931
00:55:40,160 --> 00:55:42,719
Speaker 1: crazy straight. And then it's not. Then it's you know,

932
00:55:42,840 --> 00:55:46,840
Speaker 1: it's like flying around my head and I'm crazy. Some

933
00:55:46,960 --> 00:55:49,480
Speaker 1: guy created a video of it and it was it

934
00:55:49,680 --> 00:55:53,520
Speaker 1: was amazing, It really was. I wish I could show.

935
00:55:53,560 --> 00:55:55,680
Speaker 1: I wish those of you who are just listening on

936
00:55:55,680 --> 00:55:58,279
Speaker 1: audio we could show it to you, but it was

937
00:55:58,440 --> 00:56:01,160
Speaker 1: a stunning It was a starting to watch because this

938
00:56:01,360 --> 00:56:04,200
Speaker 1: is the person. We're in a country of over three

939
00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:07,160
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty million people, and the best the Democrats

940
00:56:07,239 --> 00:56:11,720
Speaker 1: can do is this really old, not very bright, weird

941
00:56:11,880 --> 00:56:16,160
Speaker 1: guy with some corruption issues that should get a little

942
00:56:16,160 --> 00:56:18,759
Speaker 1: more investigation. I think, you know, I think all of

943
00:56:18,840 --> 00:56:21,359
Speaker 1: that is fair. This guy's going to be the next

944
00:56:21,400 --> 00:56:23,359
Speaker 1: president the United States. He's going to be the one

945
00:56:23,360 --> 00:56:25,520
Speaker 1: with the nuclear codes. We've been told for years Trump

946
00:56:25,680 --> 00:56:29,480
Speaker 1: is not fit for office. Oh oh, I'm sorry. Joe

947
00:56:29,600 --> 00:56:38,480
Speaker 1: Biden is fit for office. I had seen references to

948
00:56:38,640 --> 00:56:46,400
Speaker 1: the infamous corn Pop showdown, but I realized yesterday that

949
00:56:46,560 --> 00:56:52,279
Speaker 1: we had not addressed the cornpop issue here on the show.

950
00:56:52,360 --> 00:56:54,879
Speaker 1: And I feel like I am I am remiss as

951
00:56:54,920 --> 00:56:58,640
Speaker 1: a result, because in that same campaign stop where he's talking,

952
00:56:58,640 --> 00:57:00,440
Speaker 1: we wearing a hair and my leg is blood, and

953
00:57:00,480 --> 00:57:02,760
Speaker 1: the sticks in the sky and the sun in my eye,

954
00:57:02,920 --> 00:57:05,560
Speaker 1: and seven little chipmunks sitting on a brand she eat

955
00:57:05,600 --> 00:57:07,720
Speaker 1: a lot of acorns, you know what I'm talking about.

956
00:57:11,120 --> 00:57:14,880
Speaker 1: He also talked about his fight with at the public pool,

957
00:57:15,760 --> 00:57:21,480
Speaker 1: the terrifying gang leader known as corn pop let Us

958
00:57:21,600 --> 00:57:24,640
Speaker 1: revisit this. Shall we plick clip one? I learned a lot,

959
00:57:25,560 --> 00:57:29,120
Speaker 1: and I learned that it makes a difference. This was

960
00:57:29,240 --> 00:57:32,880
Speaker 1: the driving board area and I was one of the guards,

961
00:57:33,560 --> 00:57:35,480
Speaker 1: and there weren't a lot of There's a three meter

962
00:57:35,640 --> 00:57:38,920
Speaker 1: board and you fell off sideways. You landed on the damps,

963
00:57:39,160 --> 00:57:43,479
Speaker 1: the darn cement over there. And Cornpop was a bad

964
00:57:43,680 --> 00:57:48,040
Speaker 1: dude and he ran a bunch of bad boys. And

965
00:57:48,240 --> 00:57:50,360
Speaker 1: I did yeah. He and back in those days and

966
00:57:50,440 --> 00:57:53,000
Speaker 1: shot things have changed. One of the things he had

967
00:57:53,120 --> 00:57:55,120
Speaker 1: to use. If you use pomade in your hair, you

968
00:57:55,200 --> 00:57:58,440
Speaker 1: had to wear a bathing cap and show. He was

969
00:57:58,480 --> 00:58:00,480
Speaker 1: up on the board. Wouldn't list him. I said, hey, Esther,

970
00:58:01,000 --> 00:58:04,720
Speaker 1: you off the board. I'll come up and drag you off. Well,

971
00:58:04,760 --> 00:58:07,400
Speaker 1: he came off, and he said, I'll meet you outside

972
00:58:07,520 --> 00:58:11,000
Speaker 1: my car. This was mostly days were all public housing.

973
00:58:11,040 --> 00:58:13,640
Speaker 1: Behind you my car. There was a gate on here.

974
00:58:13,840 --> 00:58:17,280
Speaker 1: I parked my car outside the gate and I he said,

975
00:58:17,320 --> 00:58:19,439
Speaker 1: I'll be waiting for you. Here's raight murder, three guys

976
00:58:19,480 --> 00:58:24,680
Speaker 1: and straight racers. Not a joke. I just I'll have

977
00:58:24,840 --> 00:58:27,000
Speaker 1: to note that here you have Joe Biden, who I've

978
00:58:27,080 --> 00:58:29,880
Speaker 1: heard giving speeches before, and I've actually actually went to

979
00:58:30,320 --> 00:58:33,680
Speaker 1: a speech where a number of Democrat, like third tier

980
00:58:33,720 --> 00:58:36,480
Speaker 1: Democrat candidates back in two thousand and eight, we're giving speeches,

981
00:58:36,480 --> 00:58:37,880
Speaker 1: and Joe Biden was one of them because he was

982
00:58:38,040 --> 00:58:39,920
Speaker 1: right there with Kucinich and I don't even remember who

983
00:58:39,960 --> 00:58:42,560
Speaker 1: else for people that had no shot of winning the presidency.

984
00:58:42,680 --> 00:58:44,959
Speaker 1: But now he should be president. They tell you, because

985
00:58:44,960 --> 00:58:46,680
Speaker 1: they got nothing else. They got nobody else on the bench.

986
00:58:46,800 --> 00:58:50,640
Speaker 1: That's the problem. They got all these candidates, nobody that

987
00:58:50,720 --> 00:58:55,640
Speaker 1: anyone's excited about. But I noticed that, Yeah, a guy

988
00:58:55,760 --> 00:58:58,640
Speaker 1: named corn Pop and corn Pop out a bunch of

989
00:58:58,760 --> 00:59:01,200
Speaker 1: bad dudes, is am I am? I the only one

990
00:59:01,240 --> 00:59:03,200
Speaker 1: who picks up. He's like a little like a little

991
00:59:03,240 --> 00:59:06,280
Speaker 1: bit of a Southern accent creeps into Joe Biden when

992
00:59:06,320 --> 00:59:08,640
Speaker 1: he's trying to be a little folks here, right, I'm

993
00:59:08,680 --> 00:59:10,720
Speaker 1: not making it look. Guy's from Delaware. He's got as

994
00:59:10,800 --> 00:59:13,120
Speaker 1: much of an accent as I do. Yeah, ain't no

995
00:59:13,240 --> 00:59:16,480
Speaker 1: corn Popper's three meters up on the board. And you

996
00:59:16,560 --> 00:59:19,080
Speaker 1: know ros corn Pop got the dang in the hair

997
00:59:19,200 --> 00:59:21,560
Speaker 1: and the puppy puppy pupp and the puppy poop. And

998
00:59:21,960 --> 00:59:24,040
Speaker 1: you know, I'm just talking like this because I like

999
00:59:24,160 --> 00:59:28,920
Speaker 1: to talk like Thatt. This is Joe Biden. Everybody is

1000
00:59:29,000 --> 00:59:31,360
Speaker 1: so Joe Biden's talking all of a sudden. I mean,

1001
00:59:31,520 --> 00:59:33,680
Speaker 1: you know, it reminds you of Hillary. Hillary got away

1002
00:59:33,720 --> 00:59:35,600
Speaker 1: with this tool one but you was at I'm so,

1003
00:59:36,280 --> 00:59:40,240
Speaker 1: I'm so down, tied my feet done, hurt. This was Hillary.

1004
00:59:41,080 --> 00:59:44,480
Speaker 1: I'm like, when did when did Hillary? All of a sudden?

1005
00:59:44,640 --> 00:59:46,240
Speaker 1: And if you go back and look at clips of her,

1006
00:59:46,760 --> 00:59:49,360
Speaker 1: because you know, she kind of actually has like more

1007
00:59:49,400 --> 00:59:52,080
Speaker 1: of a Midwestern thing if you really listen to her.

1008
00:59:52,120 --> 00:59:54,320
Speaker 1: Her intonation is. By the way, all the Midwestern people

1009
00:59:54,320 --> 00:59:56,720
Speaker 1: listening this right now are booing the crap out of me.

1010
00:59:56,800 --> 00:59:58,880
Speaker 1: And that's all right. I'm my Midwestern accent is not good.

1011
00:59:58,920 --> 01:00:02,360
Speaker 1: I agree, But she did do that sometimes. Joe Biden's

1012
01:00:02,360 --> 01:00:05,479
Speaker 1: doing it here too. Of these politicians. Remember Joe Biden

1013
01:00:05,520 --> 01:00:08,120
Speaker 1: will put you all back in chains. Joe Biden said,

1014
01:00:11,000 --> 01:00:15,400
Speaker 1: So this is the Cornpop showed on first of all,

1015
01:00:16,040 --> 01:00:18,360
Speaker 1: I mean, even in the fifties, do you really think

1016
01:00:18,400 --> 01:00:22,000
Speaker 1: that there was some nefarious character who carried around straight

1017
01:00:22,120 --> 01:00:26,200
Speaker 1: razors and threatened people in public places named corn Pop.

1018
01:00:28,320 --> 01:00:30,480
Speaker 1: I'm not saying it's a lie. I'm just saying it

1019
01:00:30,640 --> 01:00:35,840
Speaker 1: doesn't ring true. But the Great Corn Pop Showdown of

1020
01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:41,560
Speaker 1: like nineteen sixty two or something whenever this was, I

1021
01:00:41,600 --> 01:00:44,600
Speaker 1: don't know. Here here's how I went to play Clip two.

1022
01:00:45,040 --> 01:00:48,080
Speaker 1: There's a guy named bill Wright Mouse, the only white guy,

1023
01:00:48,120 --> 01:00:50,880
Speaker 1: and he did all the pools. He was the mechanic.

1024
01:00:51,600 --> 01:00:53,240
Speaker 1: And I said, what am I going to do? He said,

1025
01:00:53,240 --> 01:00:56,680
Speaker 1: come down here in the basement where mechanics. Where where

1026
01:00:56,880 --> 01:01:00,200
Speaker 1: all the pool builder is. You know, the chain used

1027
01:01:00,200 --> 01:01:02,400
Speaker 1: to be a chain that went across the deep end,

1028
01:01:02,840 --> 01:01:04,680
Speaker 1: and he cut off a six foot and left the chain.

1029
01:01:04,760 --> 01:01:07,320
Speaker 1: He fulled up. He said, you walk out with that chain.

1030
01:01:08,240 --> 01:01:10,080
Speaker 1: And you walked to the car and say, you may

1031
01:01:10,200 --> 01:01:12,360
Speaker 1: cut me man, but I'm gonna wrap this chain around

1032
01:01:12,440 --> 01:01:16,120
Speaker 1: your head. I said, you're kidding me. He said no,

1033
01:01:16,280 --> 01:01:18,200
Speaker 1: If you don't, don't come back. And he was right.

1034
01:01:19,160 --> 01:01:22,600
Speaker 1: So I walked out with the chain and I walked

1035
01:01:22,680 --> 01:01:25,720
Speaker 1: up to my car. And they had those days. You

1036
01:01:25,760 --> 01:01:27,680
Speaker 1: used to remember the straight razor. You bang him on

1037
01:01:27,760 --> 01:01:30,160
Speaker 1: the curb, get him rusty, put him in the rain barrel,

1038
01:01:30,440 --> 01:01:33,840
Speaker 1: get him rusty. And I looked at him, but I

1039
01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:37,360
Speaker 1: was smart. Then I said, first of all, I said, well,

1040
01:01:37,400 --> 01:01:38,760
Speaker 1: I tell you get off the board, and you get

1041
01:01:38,800 --> 01:01:40,440
Speaker 1: off the board, I'll kick you out again. But I

1042
01:01:40,480 --> 01:01:43,600
Speaker 1: shouldn't have called you Esther Williams. I apologize for that.

1043
01:01:44,880 --> 01:01:47,360
Speaker 1: I apologize, but I didn't know that apologie is going

1044
01:01:47,440 --> 01:01:50,480
Speaker 1: to work. He said, you apologize me. I said, I

1045
01:01:50,600 --> 01:01:53,040
Speaker 1: apologize what I'm not for thrown you out, but I

1046
01:01:53,080 --> 01:01:56,360
Speaker 1: apologize to what I said. He said, okay, closed the

1047
01:01:56,440 --> 01:02:01,200
Speaker 1: straight razors, and my heart began to beat again. I mean,

1048
01:02:01,360 --> 01:02:03,240
Speaker 1: Joe Biden's telling you here that he was like about

1049
01:02:03,240 --> 01:02:08,440
Speaker 1: to get into some gay warfare kind of fight. Remember

1050
01:02:08,480 --> 01:02:10,680
Speaker 1: back in the day when they take the straight razor

1051
01:02:10,680 --> 01:02:12,680
Speaker 1: and they make it all rusty? Is that is that

1052
01:02:12,760 --> 01:02:15,880
Speaker 1: a thing? People make the straight razor rusty? So that

1053
01:02:17,440 --> 01:02:19,360
Speaker 1: why why they think they're gonna give you a tetanus.

1054
01:02:19,400 --> 01:02:21,800
Speaker 1: I don't understand what this is all, But again, this

1055
01:02:21,960 --> 01:02:24,760
Speaker 1: is just this guy. Look he's he's just full of it. Man,

1056
01:02:24,840 --> 01:02:26,800
Speaker 1: He's always been full of it. It's amazing. He's like,

1057
01:02:27,280 --> 01:02:29,200
Speaker 1: I'm not tired to get off the board. Gotta get

1058
01:02:29,240 --> 01:02:34,000
Speaker 1: off the board. I've heard Joe Biden, he speaks normally

1059
01:02:34,120 --> 01:02:36,760
Speaker 1: without any any of this intonation whatsoever. But he thought

1060
01:02:36,800 --> 01:02:38,560
Speaker 1: that this would go over well with his crowd. But

1061
01:02:38,680 --> 01:02:41,480
Speaker 1: even more than that, it's just such a weird It's

1062
01:02:41,520 --> 01:02:45,440
Speaker 1: such a weird story for him to tell, and I

1063
01:02:45,520 --> 01:02:48,320
Speaker 1: don't believe it. I mean, Joe Biden, he's walking out,

1064
01:02:48,560 --> 01:02:50,240
Speaker 1: He's walking to meet a guy who has a straight

1065
01:02:50,360 --> 01:02:53,600
Speaker 1: razor in the parking lot of a public pool. There's

1066
01:02:53,600 --> 01:02:55,560
Speaker 1: gonna be people everywhere, and he takes a chain out

1067
01:02:55,600 --> 01:02:58,200
Speaker 1: with him. I mean, do you believe that Joe Biden

1068
01:02:58,320 --> 01:02:59,960
Speaker 1: is some kind of badass he's willing to get into.

1069
01:03:00,120 --> 01:03:01,520
Speaker 1: You know, is this like the movie? What is it?

1070
01:03:01,560 --> 01:03:04,200
Speaker 1: The movie Warriors? Right? Isn't that where they the gangs

1071
01:03:04,240 --> 01:03:06,440
Speaker 1: in New York where they got the change come out

1072
01:03:06,520 --> 01:03:08,720
Speaker 1: to play a Yeah, I don't even know what that is,

1073
01:03:08,760 --> 01:03:12,400
Speaker 1: but I'm Starriors. It's yeah to play. I just know

1074
01:03:12,600 --> 01:03:14,280
Speaker 1: of the movie. But I know they all carry around

1075
01:03:14,280 --> 01:03:16,440
Speaker 1: ship that used to be a thing gang members that

1076
01:03:16,480 --> 01:03:18,120
Speaker 1: would carry a chance chain is not that good of

1077
01:03:18,160 --> 01:03:22,200
Speaker 1: a weapon, Yeah, exactly. I mean, if someone gives me

1078
01:03:22,280 --> 01:03:24,320
Speaker 1: the choice between a chain or a baseball bat, you

1079
01:03:24,400 --> 01:03:26,320
Speaker 1: go baseball bat. Every time. I think you go knife

1080
01:03:26,360 --> 01:03:29,240
Speaker 1: over chain too. Yeah, you could throw it. Yeah, you know,

1081
01:03:29,280 --> 01:03:30,520
Speaker 1: it reminds me of how we used to think that

1082
01:03:30,640 --> 01:03:34,320
Speaker 1: like nun chuckoos were a serious weapon. They're in fact

1083
01:03:34,600 --> 01:03:37,920
Speaker 1: illegal because people got so scared of them from movies.

1084
01:03:38,040 --> 01:03:42,000
Speaker 1: They're illegal in New York California. Now you cannot have

1085
01:03:42,240 --> 01:03:44,200
Speaker 1: It's like two pieces of metal with a string between it.

1086
01:03:44,320 --> 01:03:46,840
Speaker 1: That's illegal. And it's just because they're all these movies

1087
01:03:46,880 --> 01:03:48,840
Speaker 1: in the seventies and eighties where these gang members had

1088
01:03:49,240 --> 01:03:52,440
Speaker 1: you known nun chuck nunchuckoos or numbchucks or you know,

1089
01:03:52,480 --> 01:03:54,920
Speaker 1: people call them different things. I believe the proper terminology

1090
01:03:54,960 --> 01:03:57,480
Speaker 1: is nun chuck us, but people call them numb chucks.

1091
01:03:57,960 --> 01:04:01,520
Speaker 1: That's what Michael Langlow said. That's right. The orange Nature Turtle.

1092
01:04:01,640 --> 01:04:03,360
Speaker 1: It's not. I mean, people saw that Bruce Lee movie

1093
01:04:03,360 --> 01:04:06,720
Speaker 1: and he's like hitting all these guys with No, it's not.

1094
01:04:06,880 --> 01:04:09,640
Speaker 1: It's not that easy. Actually, you really don't want you

1095
01:04:09,720 --> 01:04:11,840
Speaker 1: really don't want to be squaring off against somebody with

1096
01:04:11,960 --> 01:04:15,400
Speaker 1: with numpchucks. It's not it's not the best weapon. Not

1097
01:04:15,480 --> 01:04:16,800
Speaker 1: that I've been in a lot of gang fights. It's

1098
01:04:16,840 --> 01:04:18,480
Speaker 1: not gonna lie, you know, but I'm not the one

1099
01:04:18,520 --> 01:04:20,800
Speaker 1: sitting there like, hey, then a bunch of guys said

1100
01:04:20,840 --> 01:04:22,800
Speaker 1: they're gonna cut me with a straight race or not

1101
01:04:22,880 --> 01:04:25,840
Speaker 1: grab a chain. I put on my leather jacket with

1102
01:04:25,920 --> 01:04:28,439
Speaker 1: the cutoff sleeves I had. They had him a gang

1103
01:04:28,560 --> 01:04:30,520
Speaker 1: colors on the back, and I just went out, you

1104
01:04:30,560 --> 01:04:34,080
Speaker 1: know your next president of the United States, everybody. And

1105
01:04:34,200 --> 01:04:37,000
Speaker 1: this isn't from like twenty years ago. This isn't like

1106
01:04:37,160 --> 01:04:40,200
Speaker 1: him talking as a youth. This is a few weeks back.

1107
01:04:42,680 --> 01:04:44,439
Speaker 1: This is what the Democrats that. This is why Michael

1108
01:04:44,440 --> 01:04:46,600
Speaker 1: Bloomberg could get in the race and he's at you know,

1109
01:04:46,680 --> 01:04:49,000
Speaker 1: six percent, run off the back. This is the front runner.

1110
01:04:49,160 --> 01:04:50,880
Speaker 1: This isn't I'm not just making fun of some I'm

1111
01:04:50,960 --> 01:04:55,160
Speaker 1: like kookie candidate that nobody's you know, serious about. Is

1112
01:04:55,200 --> 01:05:01,560
Speaker 1: the Democrat front runner. This guy. Here's a fun question,

1113
01:05:01,640 --> 01:05:05,480
Speaker 1: ask your Democrats, what is the big idea that Joe

1114
01:05:05,600 --> 01:05:10,000
Speaker 1: Biden is running with and in support of. He's just

1115
01:05:10,120 --> 01:05:15,200
Speaker 1: a vessel for people's wishing longing for the Obama era.

1116
01:05:15,360 --> 01:05:17,480
Speaker 1: That's really it. There's nothing that's not an idea, that's

1117
01:05:17,880 --> 01:05:20,040
Speaker 1: that's a fantasy. We're not going back to the Obama air.

1118
01:05:20,080 --> 01:05:23,600
Speaker 1: We're not going back to politics pre Trump. Liberals need

1119
01:05:23,680 --> 01:05:25,440
Speaker 1: to get a hold of this, They need to get

1120
01:05:25,440 --> 01:05:29,120
Speaker 1: an understanding of this. But I think it's gonna happen

1121
01:05:29,160 --> 01:05:32,040
Speaker 1: anytime soon. Everybody. We got our friend David Harsani in

1122
01:05:32,120 --> 01:05:34,720
Speaker 1: the mix. He is a writer at National Review. He's

1123
01:05:34,720 --> 01:05:36,520
Speaker 1: got a great piece up on National Review right now,

1124
01:05:36,600 --> 01:05:40,720
Speaker 1: anti majoritarianism isn't on American And although we're gonna put

1125
01:05:40,760 --> 01:05:41,880
Speaker 1: a pin on that for one seconds, I want to

1126
01:05:41,880 --> 01:05:44,520
Speaker 1: ask him about some of the latest and greatest David.

1127
01:05:44,520 --> 01:05:47,000
Speaker 1: Great to have you back. Always a pleasure. Thanks. So

1128
01:05:47,080 --> 01:05:50,440
Speaker 1: we're just talking about Bloomberg and Biden. By the way,

1129
01:05:50,440 --> 01:05:53,960
Speaker 1: are you having as much fun with the blonde hair,

1130
01:05:54,240 --> 01:06:00,200
Speaker 1: straight legs, and corn pop story situation as everybody else?

1131
01:06:01,320 --> 01:06:03,360
Speaker 1: I am. You know how it works these days, as

1132
01:06:03,400 --> 01:06:05,680
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if things are actually true or not.

1133
01:06:05,960 --> 01:06:08,440
Speaker 1: I have to sort of research to make sure that

1134
01:06:08,560 --> 01:06:11,200
Speaker 1: these things are actually happening, and they are they are legitimate.

1135
01:06:11,280 --> 01:06:13,240
Speaker 1: So I am having fun. Yet, I mean, how can

1136
01:06:13,320 --> 01:06:16,880
Speaker 1: this guy what is he? Why is Biden? I was

1137
01:06:16,920 --> 01:06:18,560
Speaker 1: just talking this before we called him. Why is Biden

1138
01:06:18,600 --> 01:06:20,760
Speaker 1: the front runner? What is your take? How is this

1139
01:06:20,920 --> 01:06:25,360
Speaker 1: guy who's really somewhat clownish and preposterous and not even

1140
01:06:25,640 --> 01:06:29,920
Speaker 1: not even entertaining clownish? What's going on? Well? I think

1141
01:06:30,720 --> 01:06:33,320
Speaker 1: people envision him as a certain kind of candidate, and

1142
01:06:33,680 --> 01:06:37,680
Speaker 1: without really paying that much attention to him, he's people

1143
01:06:37,720 --> 01:06:40,480
Speaker 1: forget he's you know, he's had failed presidential candidatis and

1144
01:06:40,600 --> 01:06:44,520
Speaker 1: not like slightly failed, but just like complete disasters before,

1145
01:06:44,680 --> 01:06:47,320
Speaker 1: and he's not ever been that great a politician. I

1146
01:06:47,400 --> 01:06:50,080
Speaker 1: think what's happened is that people are looking for a

1147
01:06:50,280 --> 01:06:53,520
Speaker 1: candidate who can win. So it's some kind of moderate candidate,

1148
01:06:53,560 --> 01:06:55,920
Speaker 1: and he, I guess fits that bill and has enough

1149
01:06:55,960 --> 01:06:58,800
Speaker 1: experience in name recognition that it puts him in the lead.

1150
01:06:58,880 --> 01:07:00,720
Speaker 1: And people keep telling me he's going to fall apart

1151
01:07:00,760 --> 01:07:02,919
Speaker 1: and it's going to be over. But every poll I see,

1152
01:07:03,720 --> 01:07:05,960
Speaker 1: you know, he seems a pretty clear front runner to me.

1153
01:07:06,560 --> 01:07:08,840
Speaker 1: Now Bloomberg is in at i think six percent in

1154
01:07:08,920 --> 01:07:11,760
Speaker 1: the poll. Do you think that he shakes things up

1155
01:07:11,800 --> 01:07:14,120
Speaker 1: and makes anything, makes any noise that's worth hearing, at

1156
01:07:14,200 --> 01:07:18,280
Speaker 1: least in terms of changing things around. I'm not sure yet.

1157
01:07:18,320 --> 01:07:21,320
Speaker 1: I think that there's obviously some I mean, it feels

1158
01:07:21,320 --> 01:07:24,000
Speaker 1: to me like Democrats that haven't found the candidate, that

1159
01:07:24,040 --> 01:07:27,800
Speaker 1: they're looking for someone who they feel like can win,

1160
01:07:28,080 --> 01:07:31,160
Speaker 1: someone who's not too far to the left. You know,

1161
01:07:31,320 --> 01:07:34,440
Speaker 1: at least certain Democrats so it's possible that he can

1162
01:07:34,480 --> 01:07:37,240
Speaker 1: take some of that, some of that away from maybe

1163
01:07:37,280 --> 01:07:41,000
Speaker 1: Biden or mayor Peter or things like that. But in

1164
01:07:41,080 --> 01:07:43,320
Speaker 1: the end, though, I just don't I don't think he's

1165
01:07:43,360 --> 01:07:46,200
Speaker 1: likable enough, and I don't think that his positions are

1166
01:07:46,240 --> 01:07:49,240
Speaker 1: of the moment, especially on the left. Why can't may

1167
01:07:49,280 --> 01:07:53,120
Speaker 1: or Peak get more traction. I think he's actually kind

1168
01:07:53,120 --> 01:07:55,200
Speaker 1: of a lightweight when you really listen to him. I mean,

1169
01:07:55,240 --> 01:07:56,800
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's the reason. I just think

1170
01:07:56,840 --> 01:07:59,160
Speaker 1: maybe it's a name recognition thing, maybe because it looks

1171
01:07:59,200 --> 01:08:01,400
Speaker 1: like he's in second rate. I mean, you know, it

1172
01:08:01,440 --> 01:08:04,400
Speaker 1: could be various things that turn off people. And there's

1173
01:08:04,400 --> 01:08:06,600
Speaker 1: still so many people running, so you never know, once

1174
01:08:06,960 --> 01:08:09,640
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris drops out or other people he may get,

1175
01:08:09,880 --> 01:08:12,320
Speaker 1: you know, those people might come over to him. So

1176
01:08:12,920 --> 01:08:14,919
Speaker 1: out of the people still left, I think he still

1177
01:08:14,960 --> 01:08:16,720
Speaker 1: has somewhat of a chance. And do you think that

1178
01:08:17,320 --> 01:08:20,800
Speaker 1: in taverns and local bars across the country, people are

1179
01:08:20,800 --> 01:08:24,560
Speaker 1: going to be pouring out some shots for the tragically

1180
01:08:25,640 --> 01:08:30,800
Speaker 1: ended set Stack campaign. Sometimes I'm like, oh, yeah, he

1181
01:08:30,920 --> 01:08:34,800
Speaker 1: was running. It's weird. I guess people have nothing to

1182
01:08:34,880 --> 01:08:36,600
Speaker 1: lose anymore when they run, so you get tons of

1183
01:08:36,600 --> 01:08:38,720
Speaker 1: people running just for maybe because they want to be

1184
01:08:38,840 --> 01:08:40,599
Speaker 1: VP or something like that. I mean, it's like Michael

1185
01:08:40,640 --> 01:08:43,000
Speaker 1: Bennett still running. I don't even know. Yeah, that's a

1186
01:08:43,040 --> 01:08:46,400
Speaker 1: good question, by the one. Are your expectations for the

1187
01:08:46,880 --> 01:08:49,640
Speaker 1: IG report as it's just now days away. I mean

1188
01:08:49,720 --> 01:08:52,439
Speaker 1: I've been telling everybody that I think that there'll be

1189
01:08:52,600 --> 01:08:54,400
Speaker 1: some bad stuff, but it'll be just like what the

1190
01:08:54,560 --> 01:08:57,479
Speaker 1: bureaucracies always do. Would you say, well, you know, there

1191
01:08:57,560 --> 01:09:00,280
Speaker 1: were some minor mistakes made, but overall everything's on and

1192
01:09:00,320 --> 01:09:01,920
Speaker 1: there's nothing really to be worried. There's no deep state,

1193
01:09:01,960 --> 01:09:03,400
Speaker 1: there's nothing to be worried about. What do you think?

1194
01:09:04,360 --> 01:09:07,759
Speaker 1: I think that you're probably right though. All the leaking

1195
01:09:07,880 --> 01:09:10,519
Speaker 1: going on these days, and in all the sort of

1196
01:09:10,640 --> 01:09:13,479
Speaker 1: preemptive defenses that are going on, it makes me think

1197
01:09:13,560 --> 01:09:15,960
Speaker 1: that maybe it'll you know that people are a little

1198
01:09:15,960 --> 01:09:18,559
Speaker 1: bit worried about what's in there, But I mean generally

1199
01:09:18,560 --> 01:09:21,200
Speaker 1: you don't see the bureaucracy saying, you know, they've sort

1200
01:09:21,240 --> 01:09:23,519
Speaker 1: of you know, give you a pat on the hand

1201
01:09:23,600 --> 01:09:25,200
Speaker 1: or whatever. They don't you know, they're not going to

1202
01:09:25,479 --> 01:09:28,080
Speaker 1: really come out. Yeah. Do you remember the five hundred

1203
01:09:28,080 --> 01:09:30,360
Speaker 1: page Horowitz Report where it was I read this thing

1204
01:09:30,400 --> 01:09:32,479
Speaker 1: and I remember thinking, well, this is this looks terrible.

1205
01:09:32,479 --> 01:09:35,000
Speaker 1: I mean, this is bias everywhere. They're like, well, you know,

1206
01:09:35,160 --> 01:09:38,040
Speaker 1: just because you have every reason to believe somebody's biased

1207
01:09:38,080 --> 01:09:40,439
Speaker 1: doesn't mean their actual decision. I mean, it seemed to

1208
01:09:40,479 --> 01:09:42,559
Speaker 1: me that the Inspector General reports set a standard where

1209
01:09:42,640 --> 01:09:44,920
Speaker 1: unless you have people working the DOJ who are saying,

1210
01:09:45,200 --> 01:09:47,400
Speaker 1: I am doing this because I think Hillary is going

1211
01:09:47,439 --> 01:09:49,519
Speaker 1: to be president and I want to help her, there's

1212
01:09:49,560 --> 01:09:52,120
Speaker 1: no bias. You can't prove it, right, We can never

1213
01:09:52,280 --> 01:09:54,840
Speaker 1: prove it, or it's almost impossible to prove intent. But

1214
01:09:55,120 --> 01:09:57,240
Speaker 1: that's why they haven't rules set up so that you

1215
01:09:57,360 --> 01:10:01,200
Speaker 1: don't even either create the impression there's something some bias

1216
01:10:01,280 --> 01:10:03,960
Speaker 1: going on, or that there is bias going on. So

1217
01:10:04,080 --> 01:10:06,280
Speaker 1: obviously when you break those rules, you break them for

1218
01:10:06,880 --> 01:10:08,600
Speaker 1: a reason. When you say things, you say them for

1219
01:10:08,680 --> 01:10:11,240
Speaker 1: a reason. So to me, it's incredible that we keep

1220
01:10:11,320 --> 01:10:15,000
Speaker 1: talking about the intent rather than the professionalism of the

1221
01:10:15,080 --> 01:10:18,200
Speaker 1: agents that you're talking about. Yeah, there's definitely going to

1222
01:10:18,280 --> 01:10:20,720
Speaker 1: be a drop in the stock in my opinion of

1223
01:10:20,800 --> 01:10:25,120
Speaker 1: the f behind the DOJ whenever this thing comes out.

1224
01:10:25,720 --> 01:10:28,639
Speaker 1: It's actually terrible in a way that Americans can trust

1225
01:10:28,640 --> 01:10:31,120
Speaker 1: their institutions anymore. And it's not. And everyone wants to

1226
01:10:31,160 --> 01:10:33,840
Speaker 1: blame Trump, Trump and Trump fans and all that stuff,

1227
01:10:33,840 --> 01:10:36,400
Speaker 1: but they do most of this to themselves. Now I think,

1228
01:10:36,400 --> 01:10:38,000
Speaker 1: I think that's absolutely true. And I think as we

1229
01:10:38,120 --> 01:10:42,719
Speaker 1: continue to see the Democrat standard here as always, Trump

1230
01:10:42,840 --> 01:10:45,160
Speaker 1: is a stronger institutions. And then they talk about to

1231
01:10:45,200 --> 01:10:48,639
Speaker 1: stronger institutions, and maybe that's actually a perfect place, David

1232
01:10:48,880 --> 01:10:51,439
Speaker 1: to transition to your piece up in National Review. So guys,

1249
01:11:53,200 --> 01:11:56,280
Speaker 1: our friend David Harsani of National Review. He's telling us

1250
01:11:56,280 --> 01:11:58,280
Speaker 1: a little bit about his piece or he's about two

1251
01:11:58,680 --> 01:12:03,320
Speaker 1: antimajority arm isn't on American David. Thanks for staying with us,

1252
01:12:03,760 --> 01:12:06,120
Speaker 1: O my pleasure. All right, So you're talking about Atlantic

1253
01:12:06,200 --> 01:12:11,439
Speaker 1: writer Adam sir wars attack on Trump supporters, essentially saying

1254
01:12:11,520 --> 01:12:14,280
Speaker 1: that because they want judges, for example, that will defend

1255
01:12:14,320 --> 01:12:18,320
Speaker 1: their rights, that that's not accountability to democracy. Walk us

1256
01:12:18,360 --> 01:12:22,000
Speaker 1: through this new trend in left wing public intellectual thought

1257
01:12:22,120 --> 01:12:24,680
Speaker 1: and why it's basically crazy. But I'll let you put

1258
01:12:24,760 --> 01:12:27,280
Speaker 1: in your own words. Well, I mean, the new case

1259
01:12:27,439 --> 01:12:31,479
Speaker 1: against Trumpism is that social conservatives have sold their soul

1260
01:12:31,560 --> 01:12:33,960
Speaker 1: so they can because they can sell their ideas through

1261
01:12:34,000 --> 01:12:38,160
Speaker 1: the democratic process, they will use undemocratic means, using Donald

1262
01:12:38,200 --> 01:12:40,800
Speaker 1: Trump to get what they want. This is kind of

1263
01:12:40,840 --> 01:12:45,960
Speaker 1: a ridiculous contention for one reason. For the most the

1264
01:12:46,000 --> 01:12:48,759
Speaker 1: biggest reason is that Obviously Donald Trump has selected president.

1265
01:12:48,880 --> 01:12:51,479
Speaker 1: So it's not as if social conservatives haven't won anything

1266
01:12:51,560 --> 01:12:53,720
Speaker 1: they ran. You know, conservative are in the House and

1267
01:12:54,479 --> 01:12:57,080
Speaker 1: until recently, and they run the Senate for years, they

1268
01:12:57,120 --> 01:13:00,200
Speaker 1: can win elections. This is all based simply on one

1269
01:13:00,280 --> 01:13:03,880
Speaker 1: popular vote. More that Trump never ran for that's imaginary.

1270
01:13:03,960 --> 01:13:06,040
Speaker 1: But more than that, they believe that anytime the court

1271
01:13:06,120 --> 01:13:08,880
Speaker 1: strikes down something in their favor for religious liberty or

1272
01:13:09,000 --> 01:13:12,800
Speaker 1: gun rights or free speech, that social conservative are using

1273
01:13:12,880 --> 01:13:17,360
Speaker 1: some kind of undemocratic system, whereas democrats, I mean, abortion,

1274
01:13:17,520 --> 01:13:19,920
Speaker 1: gay marriage, is a whole list of lidany of things

1275
01:13:20,000 --> 01:13:23,240
Speaker 1: in other cases that they've been upheld by the courts

1276
01:13:23,240 --> 01:13:24,840
Speaker 1: that they would never have had without the courts, that

1277
01:13:24,920 --> 01:13:26,960
Speaker 1: they've never called those on democratics. So I just think

1278
01:13:27,439 --> 01:13:30,960
Speaker 1: it's a hypocrisymb just simply untrue. And you know, yesterday

1279
01:13:31,000 --> 01:13:33,800
Speaker 1: we talked a little bit here about the Elizabeth Warren

1280
01:13:33,880 --> 01:13:37,160
Speaker 1: promised to get rid of the electoral college. Is this

1281
01:13:37,400 --> 01:13:42,400
Speaker 1: just shameless pandering from Warren? I mean she does a

1282
01:13:42,479 --> 01:13:44,679
Speaker 1: lot of that, or do you think that she would

1283
01:13:44,720 --> 01:13:47,519
Speaker 1: really if she could, would she really want to do that?

1284
01:13:48,160 --> 01:13:50,120
Speaker 1: One hundred percent believe she would want to do that

1285
01:13:50,200 --> 01:13:52,160
Speaker 1: if she could. I mean, there are efforts underway to

1286
01:13:52,200 --> 01:13:53,920
Speaker 1: get a bunch of states to sign a pack to

1287
01:13:54,120 --> 01:13:57,439
Speaker 1: to to throw away their votes to a popular vote

1288
01:13:57,479 --> 01:14:01,120
Speaker 1: in their electoral votes, to a popular vote overall, if

1289
01:14:01,160 --> 01:14:02,800
Speaker 1: they could, and I'm sure she would do it. I'm

1290
01:14:02,840 --> 01:14:05,120
Speaker 1: sure Bernie Sanders would do it. I mean other people. Obviously,

1291
01:14:05,160 --> 01:14:08,080
Speaker 1: I don't know if what Joe Biden would do. But

1292
01:14:08,240 --> 01:14:10,760
Speaker 1: I just don't understand. So people tell me, oh, you

1293
01:14:10,840 --> 01:14:12,400
Speaker 1: know that's never going to happen, don't worry about it.

1294
01:14:12,520 --> 01:14:15,080
Speaker 1: You can still vote against Trump. Well I shouldn't. I

1295
01:14:15,120 --> 01:14:18,640
Speaker 1: take what politicians say seriously, meaning they're telling me they

1296
01:14:18,680 --> 01:14:20,680
Speaker 1: want to overturn the system. But you're telling me that's

1297
01:14:20,720 --> 01:14:22,360
Speaker 1: what you're telling me Trump is doing. But these people

1298
01:14:22,360 --> 01:14:25,120
Speaker 1: are openly advocating for the very same things you're telling

1299
01:14:25,160 --> 01:14:27,439
Speaker 1: me Trump is doing that he's not. So it makes

1300
01:14:27,479 --> 01:14:29,920
Speaker 1: no sense to me. Now is your what is your

1301
01:14:30,000 --> 01:14:33,120
Speaker 1: best case for why we should keep the electoral College?

1302
01:14:33,160 --> 01:14:36,280
Speaker 1: By the way, Well, because we have we have fifty

1303
01:14:36,360 --> 01:14:40,040
Speaker 1: different states that deserve their you know, in a diffused democracy,

1304
01:14:40,120 --> 01:14:42,640
Speaker 1: deserve their own say, rather than having California and New

1305
01:14:42,720 --> 01:14:47,080
Speaker 1: York running the country. If you had if you had

1306
01:14:47,160 --> 01:14:49,320
Speaker 1: no electoral college. You know, Trump would have run a

1307
01:14:49,400 --> 01:14:51,840
Speaker 1: different campaign. He'd be in New York, he being California,

1308
01:14:52,479 --> 01:14:55,280
Speaker 1: pandering to those people with more liberal kind of ideas,

1309
01:14:55,600 --> 01:14:57,479
Speaker 1: and we'd have two states that mattered in a bunch

1310
01:14:57,479 --> 01:14:59,719
Speaker 1: of states that didn't. That's not how the founders envisioned

1311
01:14:59,720 --> 01:15:03,280
Speaker 1: the treat Well, I certainly agree with that. I'm just wondering,

1312
01:15:03,360 --> 01:15:09,760
Speaker 1: what are your expectations for this Wednesday's judiciary hearing and impeachment?

1313
01:15:11,320 --> 01:15:13,080
Speaker 1: Oh gosh, I don't even know. I mean, I think

1314
01:15:13,120 --> 01:15:15,040
Speaker 1: you're gonna have a lot of that same where the

1315
01:15:15,120 --> 01:15:17,960
Speaker 1: press is like, you know, you can always tell where

1316
01:15:18,000 --> 01:15:19,840
Speaker 1: there's going to be a tweet that's just annoying and

1317
01:15:19,960 --> 01:15:22,960
Speaker 1: untrue when someone has to put wow when they first tweet.

1318
01:15:23,040 --> 01:15:26,080
Speaker 1: You know, these reporters now do or like three exclamation points.

1319
01:15:26,400 --> 01:15:27,720
Speaker 1: You're gonna get a lot of that, and then when

1320
01:15:27,720 --> 01:15:30,519
Speaker 1: you actually read what was said, it'll be more of

1321
01:15:30,560 --> 01:15:33,320
Speaker 1: the same. I just don't think anyone's mind is being

1322
01:15:33,439 --> 01:15:36,840
Speaker 1: changed here. I don't think presidential candidates a lovely idea

1323
01:15:36,840 --> 01:15:40,640
Speaker 1: of impeachment. And you know, how do you line this?

1324
01:15:40,760 --> 01:15:43,000
Speaker 1: I mean, because I agree, by the way, I love

1325
01:15:43,080 --> 01:15:45,720
Speaker 1: seeing all these and it's fun to guess at what

1326
01:15:46,360 --> 01:15:49,519
Speaker 1: some reporters are going to say about certain certain uh

1327
01:15:50,000 --> 01:15:52,120
Speaker 1: you know, witnesses and this impeachment thing before they even say,

1328
01:15:52,120 --> 01:15:54,639
Speaker 1: because it's really easy. They're like, oh my gosh, Trump,

1329
01:15:55,040 --> 01:15:57,559
Speaker 1: this is the final you know, now he's gone too far,

1330
01:15:57,960 --> 01:15:59,360
Speaker 1: and then they end up writing it. I mean, these

1331
01:15:59,400 --> 01:16:01,799
Speaker 1: people have no they're not not only are they bad fingers,

1332
01:16:01,880 --> 01:16:04,719
Speaker 1: they have no originality which is really really pretty annoying

1333
01:16:04,920 --> 01:16:07,640
Speaker 1: skepticism about anything. I mean, I understand you on like

1334
01:16:07,720 --> 01:16:11,479
Speaker 1: trumpets show some skepticism towards both sides. I mean, that's

1335
01:16:11,479 --> 01:16:13,519
Speaker 1: what a good reporter should be doing. Yeah, that's that's

1336
01:16:13,560 --> 01:16:15,000
Speaker 1: been totally a band. I want to ask about it

1337
01:16:15,080 --> 01:16:17,400
Speaker 1: about that actually, because I think that people tend to

1338
01:16:17,439 --> 01:16:24,120
Speaker 1: look at Trump as the this singular exposure of the

1339
01:16:24,320 --> 01:16:27,200
Speaker 1: media in a way that has never really been done before.

1340
01:16:27,200 --> 01:16:28,600
Speaker 1: I mean, I think there's some truth to that. To

1341
01:16:28,680 --> 01:16:30,799
Speaker 1: be sure, he goes after them in a way publicly

1342
01:16:30,840 --> 01:16:33,160
Speaker 1: and has a megaphone. They're not used to anyone ever

1343
01:16:33,240 --> 01:16:34,960
Speaker 1: having a megaphone that can match what they can do,

1344
01:16:35,080 --> 01:16:36,560
Speaker 1: usually in a left right. So Trump all of a

1345
01:16:36,600 --> 01:16:41,600
Speaker 1: sudden is at least able to meet them at a

1346
01:16:41,920 --> 01:16:44,479
Speaker 1: pretty equivalent level in terms of how many people he

1347
01:16:44,560 --> 01:16:46,360
Speaker 1: can reach and how he doesn't have to go through

1348
01:16:46,520 --> 01:16:48,679
Speaker 1: them in the same way. But I also you mentioned

1349
01:16:48,720 --> 01:16:51,280
Speaker 1: Twitter all the exclamation points. I think that Twitter is

1350
01:16:51,400 --> 01:16:55,600
Speaker 1: in a sense that the death of quote nonpartisan journalism,

1351
01:16:55,840 --> 01:16:58,240
Speaker 1: because we just see all these journals all day long, like,

1352
01:16:58,640 --> 01:17:01,200
Speaker 1: what do they retweet, what are they like? What do

1353
01:17:01,280 --> 01:17:03,559
Speaker 1: they say? I mean, it's sort of like the DOJ

1354
01:17:03,680 --> 01:17:05,519
Speaker 1: thing where they say, well, there's lots and lots and

1355
01:17:05,600 --> 01:17:07,720
Speaker 1: lots of bias about the Hillary email thing, but we

1356
01:17:07,920 --> 01:17:10,800
Speaker 1: can't prove that any of those decisions were biased. It's

1357
01:17:10,840 --> 01:17:13,760
Speaker 1: just that there was people saying bias stuff. I feel

1358
01:17:13,760 --> 01:17:15,920
Speaker 1: like it's the same argument getting out with journalists where

1359
01:17:15,920 --> 01:17:19,120
Speaker 1: it's anti Trump screeds all day in the Twitter feed,

1360
01:17:19,160 --> 01:17:22,320
Speaker 1: either retweeted or shared or liked or written themselves. But

1361
01:17:22,479 --> 01:17:25,200
Speaker 1: then when they're covering the Capitol Hill stuff, it's like, well,

1362
01:17:25,600 --> 01:17:29,120
Speaker 1: we're honest, we're honest brokers in this Yeah. I mean,

1363
01:17:29,200 --> 01:17:32,080
Speaker 1: Twitter has been a revelation in the sense of showing

1364
01:17:32,240 --> 01:17:34,280
Speaker 1: us what all these journals are really like and what

1365
01:17:34,400 --> 01:17:37,479
Speaker 1: they think they can control themselves. And obviously I don't

1366
01:17:37,520 --> 01:17:39,599
Speaker 1: know what that's like. I'm having had to control myself

1367
01:17:39,680 --> 01:17:42,479
Speaker 1: in that way for a long time, but they simply

1368
01:17:42,600 --> 01:17:46,479
Speaker 1: can't not retweet things. And once Trump does, you know,

1369
01:17:46,600 --> 01:17:48,479
Speaker 1: start doing what he does where he's just sort of

1370
01:17:48,600 --> 01:17:52,000
Speaker 1: pushes right back and over the top stuff, they feel

1371
01:17:52,040 --> 01:17:53,840
Speaker 1: like now they can you know, they don't have to

1372
01:17:53,920 --> 01:17:56,719
Speaker 1: pretend that they're not completely biased. I mean, CNN runs

1373
01:17:56,880 --> 01:17:59,400
Speaker 1: an anti Trump organization. They have no interest in any

1374
01:17:59,439 --> 01:18:02,519
Speaker 1: sort of other truth. So, you know, I think that

1375
01:18:02,680 --> 01:18:04,559
Speaker 1: that's bad for the American people in a way because

1376
01:18:04,800 --> 01:18:07,160
Speaker 1: we don't choose a journalists anymore. But in another way,

1377
01:18:07,280 --> 01:18:09,360
Speaker 1: at least it tells us what the truth is and

1378
01:18:09,520 --> 01:18:11,639
Speaker 1: that we can just deal with it, deal with them

1379
01:18:12,479 --> 01:18:14,640
Speaker 1: in a more honest way. So that's what it is,

1380
01:18:15,240 --> 01:18:18,520
Speaker 1: David Harsani. Everybody, he approaches lots of things with skepticism.

1381
01:18:18,640 --> 01:18:20,479
Speaker 1: So that's the good dude, is he. It's not easily

1382
01:18:23,560 --> 01:18:28,080
Speaker 1: easily swayed. Anti majoritarianism, isn't an American that's a national review.

1383
01:18:28,400 --> 01:18:30,439
Speaker 1: David Harsani, thank you so much, so we'll talk to

1384
01:18:30,479 --> 01:18:32,760
Speaker 1: you soon. Thank you. There's no question that the far

1385
01:18:33,000 --> 01:18:35,959
Speaker 1: left thinks it is ascendant right now in our politics,

1386
01:18:36,000 --> 01:18:39,280
Speaker 1: and I think that they are on some solid ground

1387
01:18:39,400 --> 01:18:43,480
Speaker 1: in thinking. So you've got Sanders and Warren who are socialists.

1388
01:18:43,680 --> 01:18:46,360
Speaker 1: They're socialists. We could sit around and talk about the

1389
01:18:46,920 --> 01:18:49,960
Speaker 1: nuances and the variations. They are socialists, and they are

1390
01:18:50,080 --> 01:18:52,360
Speaker 1: number two and three right now in all the polls,

1391
01:18:53,520 --> 01:18:56,960
Speaker 1: and that means, by the way, if you combine their numbers,

1392
01:18:57,000 --> 01:18:59,120
Speaker 1: it'd probably be meaning if one of them drops out,

1393
01:18:59,560 --> 01:19:03,439
Speaker 1: it's gonna be Bunny, but who knows, Maybe it's gonna

1394
01:19:03,439 --> 01:19:06,559
Speaker 1: be warn. He wants to see if he can help

1395
01:19:06,680 --> 01:19:12,920
Speaker 1: last the lesser socialist Elizabeth Warren. But that's that's another

1396
01:19:12,960 --> 01:19:15,240
Speaker 1: way of looking at this, so that we all understand

1397
01:19:15,320 --> 01:19:20,360
Speaker 1: exactly how left wing the Democratic Party has gotten. And

1398
01:19:20,520 --> 01:19:23,240
Speaker 1: you even have some candidates now who are quite far left.

1399
01:19:23,280 --> 01:19:26,800
Speaker 1: We'll be running in twenty twenty, including mister jenk Uger.

1400
01:19:27,200 --> 01:19:28,680
Speaker 1: And I do not know if i'm pronouncing his life

1401
01:19:28,720 --> 01:19:30,960
Speaker 1: pronounce his first name, because he's known as jenk. I

1402
01:19:31,040 --> 01:19:34,800
Speaker 1: know that that's his name. I've talked to him before. Uger.

1403
01:19:34,880 --> 01:19:36,519
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if that's how you say's last name,

1404
01:19:36,520 --> 01:19:38,760
Speaker 1: but I'm not trying to mispronounce it. That's a that's lame.

1405
01:19:38,800 --> 01:19:41,760
Speaker 1: I just don't know how to say it. But he's

1406
01:19:41,880 --> 01:19:46,680
Speaker 1: running for Congress now and he is, as you may

1407
01:19:46,840 --> 01:19:50,040
Speaker 1: some of you may know, the founder of the Young Turks,

1408
01:19:50,080 --> 01:19:53,960
Speaker 1: which is an online probably the most far left. I mean,

1409
01:19:53,960 --> 01:19:56,160
Speaker 1: it's kind of like The Nation, which is a bunch

1410
01:19:56,160 --> 01:20:01,240
Speaker 1: of commies where to found a news an online news program.

1411
01:20:01,360 --> 01:20:03,800
Speaker 1: They raised a whole bunch of money from, you know,

1412
01:20:03,960 --> 01:20:09,720
Speaker 1: a left wing multi multi millionaire or billionaire recently. That's

1413
01:20:09,920 --> 01:20:12,439
Speaker 1: so they're very well funded socialists, which tends to be

1414
01:20:12,520 --> 01:20:16,839
Speaker 1: the case. People that love to benefit from the excesses

1415
01:20:16,880 --> 01:20:19,519
Speaker 1: of capitalism and then talk about or rather just benefit

1416
01:20:19,640 --> 01:20:23,439
Speaker 1: from capitalism and then like to talk about how they

1417
01:20:23,520 --> 01:20:27,200
Speaker 1: hate capitalism. I hope to one day be so rich

1418
01:20:27,320 --> 01:20:29,640
Speaker 1: that I can talk about how we shouldn't live in

1419
01:20:29,680 --> 01:20:32,040
Speaker 1: a societymore where people can get rich, let's close the

1420
01:20:32,120 --> 01:20:34,640
Speaker 1: door for everybody else. I would have be one of

1421
01:20:34,680 --> 01:20:36,519
Speaker 1: these rich people who's like, I don't think anybody else

1422
01:20:36,560 --> 01:20:39,559
Speaker 1: should be really rich, you know, and therefore I am

1423
01:20:39,720 --> 01:20:43,680
Speaker 1: I am justifying my richness by saying that nobody else

1424
01:20:43,680 --> 01:20:46,400
Speaker 1: should be rich. That would be That would be a fun,

1425
01:20:47,000 --> 01:20:49,680
Speaker 1: self indulgent place to be, wouldn't I think there's no

1426
01:20:49,840 --> 01:20:55,160
Speaker 1: question about that. But the Young Churches also employed some

1427
01:20:55,240 --> 01:20:59,479
Speaker 1: of the nastiest, dumbest, and most vicious and stupid left

1428
01:20:59,560 --> 01:21:03,960
Speaker 1: wing talking heads in all of America, So they have

1429
01:21:04,080 --> 01:21:07,719
Speaker 1: that distinction. I mean people who are just odious characters,

1430
01:21:08,520 --> 01:21:10,599
Speaker 1: as we have discussed before on the show, bad people,

1431
01:21:10,760 --> 01:21:14,519
Speaker 1: people that are unworthy of respect or real discourse, people

1432
01:21:14,600 --> 01:21:17,439
Speaker 1: that are deserving of and they are stupid audience by

1433
01:21:17,479 --> 01:21:23,040
Speaker 1: the way, as well deserving of approbrium. But jenk is

1434
01:21:23,320 --> 01:21:25,120
Speaker 1: you know he will, he will engage, you, will debate,

1435
01:21:25,240 --> 01:21:28,240
Speaker 1: So I at least will give him credit for standing

1436
01:21:28,360 --> 01:21:32,280
Speaker 1: up and being willing to exchange ideas of people on

1437
01:21:32,600 --> 01:21:38,360
Speaker 1: his socialism. He talked about Medicare for all, for example,

1438
01:21:38,439 --> 01:21:42,280
Speaker 1: and here is what the Progressive Democrat candidate for I

1439
01:21:42,320 --> 01:21:45,240
Speaker 1: don't know which district in California says about Medicare for

1440
01:21:45,320 --> 01:21:49,040
Speaker 1: all play fourteen. First of all, Medicare for all polls excellent.

1441
01:21:49,320 --> 01:21:51,799
Speaker 1: Second of all, when you guys say you'd lose your insurance,

1442
01:21:51,840 --> 01:21:55,839
Speaker 1: that is terribly wrong. You have insurance. Even Michael Bennett,

1443
01:21:55,840 --> 01:21:59,280
Speaker 1: who doesn't like purce, okay, but you have better insurance.

1444
01:21:59,360 --> 01:22:02,280
Speaker 1: Chris you mad, No, no, not maybe, definitely, I asked

1445
01:22:02,280 --> 01:22:04,639
Speaker 1: Michael BENNI Santo Michael Bennet, who does not like Medicare

1446
01:22:04,680 --> 01:22:06,960
Speaker 1: for All. He said, it's the Medicare for all would

1447
01:22:06,960 --> 01:22:09,960
Speaker 1: be the Cadillac plan. He said, yes, you get everything

1448
01:22:10,200 --> 01:22:13,519
Speaker 1: with Medicare for All, you get better insurance. There's no

1449
01:22:13,720 --> 01:22:22,880
Speaker 1: question about that. Jenk doesn't understand how markets or economies work. Apparently,

1450
01:22:24,240 --> 01:22:27,880
Speaker 1: what he's referring to here is the promise, the absurd

1451
01:22:28,040 --> 01:22:32,160
Speaker 1: promise by the way of Medicare for all. And I

1452
01:22:32,280 --> 01:22:34,040
Speaker 1: think this is the Bernie Santa's version. It might be

1453
01:22:34,080 --> 01:22:37,560
Speaker 1: the war in version. But you know, Potato Potato that

1454
01:22:37,760 --> 01:22:40,479
Speaker 1: says that everything, vision, dental, you know, everything would be

1455
01:22:40,640 --> 01:22:43,320
Speaker 1: under this medicare. It would, in fact be much more

1456
01:22:43,439 --> 01:22:46,519
Speaker 1: than Medicare. Now, keeping my medicare is the one thing

1457
01:22:46,640 --> 01:22:51,240
Speaker 1: that threatens to collapse our entire economy as our debt

1458
01:22:51,320 --> 01:22:54,840
Speaker 1: continues to spiral out of control. But we're told, let's

1459
01:22:54,880 --> 01:22:57,719
Speaker 1: make that a lot, a lot bigger, a lot bigger.

1460
01:22:59,040 --> 01:23:03,760
Speaker 1: Here's the problem with having everybody on the same plan.

1461
01:23:05,479 --> 01:23:07,560
Speaker 1: You want, I'll give you a perfect sample. Actually, I

1462
01:23:07,600 --> 01:23:10,519
Speaker 1: tried to make an appointment with a specialist in New

1463
01:23:10,600 --> 01:23:12,920
Speaker 1: York City earlier in the week. Right, God, I just

1464
01:23:13,720 --> 01:23:18,000
Speaker 1: tend to some some buck health issue and I was

1465
01:23:18,040 --> 01:23:22,240
Speaker 1: told the weight was two months. I have insurance, by

1466
01:23:22,280 --> 01:23:26,679
Speaker 1: the way, and this is a doctor that doesn't take insurance,

1467
01:23:26,760 --> 01:23:28,479
Speaker 1: but you can of course submit afterwards and all the

1468
01:23:28,520 --> 01:23:30,760
Speaker 1: rest of it. Two month wait, and that's a that's

1469
01:23:30,760 --> 01:23:33,160
Speaker 1: a doctor who's not even an insurance mark. Just wait

1470
01:23:33,280 --> 01:23:37,000
Speaker 1: until you're under your plan. Everybody else in the whole

1471
01:23:37,040 --> 01:23:39,559
Speaker 1: country is supposed to be effectively on the same plan.

1472
01:23:39,760 --> 01:23:40,920
Speaker 1: Do you think you're gonna be able to see the

1473
01:23:40,960 --> 01:23:43,320
Speaker 1: doctor you want to see now? Of course not. How

1474
01:23:43,439 --> 01:23:47,600
Speaker 1: do you determine who gets to see what doctor? And

1475
01:23:47,680 --> 01:23:50,080
Speaker 1: when everyone's paying the same, everyone's network is the same,

1476
01:23:50,120 --> 01:23:52,599
Speaker 1: every doctor is the same. This is, by the way,

1477
01:23:52,600 --> 01:23:54,960
Speaker 1: this is I mean, this is like full on socialist medicine.

1478
01:23:54,960 --> 01:23:59,880
Speaker 1: We're talking about here, determining everything other than the training

1479
01:24:00,120 --> 01:24:02,920
Speaker 1: of doctors and the provision of But that'll have to

1480
01:24:03,120 --> 01:24:05,400
Speaker 1: they'll have to add that into this because what happens

1481
01:24:05,560 --> 01:24:09,040
Speaker 1: is that there are no market signals to determine whether

1482
01:24:09,360 --> 01:24:13,520
Speaker 1: or not somebody can see a doctor in a certain timeframe.

1483
01:24:16,800 --> 01:24:20,240
Speaker 1: There are no market signals to make that designation, that determination.

1484
01:24:20,360 --> 01:24:24,519
Speaker 1: So what does the state does so sure that they'll

1485
01:24:24,600 --> 01:24:28,799
Speaker 1: pay for your doctor visit? Just like they will in Canada,

1486
01:24:28,960 --> 01:24:32,000
Speaker 1: just like they will in the UK, and you'll wait

1487
01:24:32,120 --> 01:24:35,760
Speaker 1: six to nine months for it, maybe a year. You know,

1488
01:24:35,800 --> 01:24:37,439
Speaker 1: it happens most of the time. People find out what

1489
01:24:37,479 --> 01:24:38,920
Speaker 1: the weight is and they go see a different doctor,

1490
01:24:38,920 --> 01:24:42,479
Speaker 1: a doctor they don't particularly want to see. The practitioner matters.

1491
01:24:43,520 --> 01:24:45,400
Speaker 1: You know, this is these are goods and services. People

1492
01:24:45,400 --> 01:24:49,080
Speaker 1: are making decisions and determinations. The entire system gets better

1493
01:24:49,200 --> 01:24:52,200
Speaker 1: when good doctors are rewarded, when good doctors can charge more. Also,

1494
01:24:52,280 --> 01:24:54,360
Speaker 1: smarter and better people in the future will want to

1495
01:24:54,400 --> 01:24:57,120
Speaker 1: go into medicine because they know they can be rewarded

1496
01:24:57,160 --> 01:24:59,680
Speaker 1: for this. The incentive structure in the medical system is

1497
01:25:00,080 --> 01:25:04,080
Speaker 1: wiped out in Medicare for All. Everyone's paid the same,

1498
01:25:04,120 --> 01:25:07,639
Speaker 1: everyone gets the same. Do you want Do you want

1499
01:25:07,680 --> 01:25:10,000
Speaker 1: that to be the case? No? I want to live

1500
01:25:10,000 --> 01:25:11,519
Speaker 1: in a country where I can choose the doctor that

1501
01:25:11,600 --> 01:25:14,360
Speaker 1: I see and see him in a reasonable or her

1502
01:25:14,479 --> 01:25:19,120
Speaker 1: in a reasonable timeframe. The only way that these systems

1503
01:25:19,200 --> 01:25:22,400
Speaker 1: that do even less than Medicare for All, the only

1504
01:25:22,439 --> 01:25:27,559
Speaker 1: way they provide care is through rationing and waits. They

1505
01:25:27,680 --> 01:25:30,720
Speaker 1: tell you how much you can get, they tell you

1506
01:25:30,760 --> 01:25:32,280
Speaker 1: when you can get it. By the way, what also

1507
01:25:32,360 --> 01:25:36,680
Speaker 1: will be included in this new people are if you

1508
01:25:36,720 --> 01:25:42,120
Speaker 1: want to go see a shrink, a psychologist, psychiatrist, do

1509
01:25:42,240 --> 01:25:45,880
Speaker 1: you get to go every day? Very very expensive? Who's

1510
01:25:45,880 --> 01:25:49,760
Speaker 1: going to pay for this? How much is determined? At

1511
01:25:49,840 --> 01:25:52,960
Speaker 1: some point the reality sets in where you can't just

1512
01:25:53,120 --> 01:25:55,200
Speaker 1: have people getting whatever they want, because if people get

1513
01:25:55,240 --> 01:25:57,040
Speaker 1: whatever they want, there won't be enough for people to

1514
01:25:57,120 --> 01:26:03,439
Speaker 1: get Without a mark in place to incentivize better, more efficient,

1515
01:26:03,560 --> 01:26:08,360
Speaker 1: faster care and to bring more people into the medical

1516
01:26:08,439 --> 01:26:11,360
Speaker 1: system so that there is more there are more goods

1517
01:26:11,400 --> 01:26:14,400
Speaker 1: and services to be distributed. This whole thing falls apart.

1518
01:26:15,000 --> 01:26:17,080
Speaker 1: It's going to be better than your current insurance plan.

1519
01:26:17,520 --> 01:26:24,720
Speaker 1: Good luck with that, the Cadillac of plan. This is

1520
01:26:24,760 --> 01:26:27,639
Speaker 1: the folks. This is snake oil that you are being sold.

1521
01:26:28,439 --> 01:26:32,360
Speaker 1: It is a lie. It is a fiction. Unless they're

1522
01:26:32,360 --> 01:26:35,880
Speaker 1: willing to say middle class taxes will go up dramatically,

1523
01:26:36,000 --> 01:26:38,599
Speaker 1: which they will have to just to make the math work,

1524
01:26:39,080 --> 01:26:41,840
Speaker 1: and unless they are willing to say that yes, you

1525
01:26:42,000 --> 01:26:44,320
Speaker 1: will see the doctor that the government says you are

1526
01:26:44,320 --> 01:26:47,280
Speaker 1: allowed to see in the time frame that government determines

1527
01:26:47,920 --> 01:26:51,240
Speaker 1: they are lying to you. They can point to any

1528
01:26:51,320 --> 01:26:56,000
Speaker 1: other major state operated medical system in the developed world

1529
01:26:56,360 --> 01:26:59,040
Speaker 1: and those are the realities that we are dealing with.

1530
01:27:01,120 --> 01:27:03,920
Speaker 1: That's it. So just yeah, medicare for all you. Someone's

1531
01:27:03,920 --> 01:27:07,480
Speaker 1: gonna pay for all your healthcare. This is state intrusion

1532
01:27:07,840 --> 01:27:12,360
Speaker 1: into one fifth, one sixth roughly of the economy in

1533
01:27:12,479 --> 01:27:14,240
Speaker 1: a way that will then lead to you, by the way,

1534
01:27:14,360 --> 01:27:18,400
Speaker 1: further socialized industries and sectors of our economy. This does

1535
01:27:18,479 --> 01:27:24,040
Speaker 1: not get better. This only gets worse. Oh, breaking news,

1536
01:27:25,840 --> 01:27:28,519
Speaker 1: breaking news. You know how in the last hour of

1537
01:27:28,560 --> 01:27:31,719
Speaker 1: the show, I said, you know, when is Kamala gonna

1538
01:27:31,720 --> 01:27:33,320
Speaker 1: call it quits? I think I said that dedn'ty her.

1539
01:27:33,360 --> 01:27:35,320
Speaker 1: I was at least making fun of her terrible campaign.

1540
01:27:36,479 --> 01:27:40,720
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris is out. It's just happened. She's out, no

1541
01:27:40,800 --> 01:27:43,360
Speaker 1: longer running for president. I think Bloomberg showing up and

1542
01:27:44,880 --> 01:27:47,880
Speaker 1: being ahead of her right away in the polls, I

1543
01:27:48,000 --> 01:27:50,840
Speaker 1: think that was a little bit more than even her

1544
01:27:50,920 --> 01:27:54,600
Speaker 1: campaign could could manage to deal with. Now that I

1545
01:27:54,720 --> 01:27:58,360
Speaker 1: think she's pulling about I don't know, four or five

1546
01:27:58,479 --> 01:28:00,719
Speaker 1: percent in some of the polls I've scene. That sounds

1547
01:28:00,720 --> 01:28:03,680
Speaker 1: about right, So I wonder where those votes will go,

1548
01:28:04,920 --> 01:28:09,680
Speaker 1: probably to Biden, but maybe not. I do think the

1549
01:28:09,760 --> 01:28:13,800
Speaker 1: pressure is going to really mount for here's the way

1550
01:28:13,840 --> 01:28:18,400
Speaker 1: that they do it. Elizabeth Warren says that, you know, well,

1551
01:28:18,960 --> 01:28:22,240
Speaker 1: the realistic way would be for Bernie Sanders to offer

1552
01:28:22,280 --> 01:28:24,360
Speaker 1: Elizabeth Warren the VP slot and then create like a

1553
01:28:24,479 --> 01:28:28,280
Speaker 1: socialist dynasty going forward. But I don't know if I

1554
01:28:28,400 --> 01:28:32,680
Speaker 1: wisham With Warren's willing to accept that, so it is

1555
01:28:32,920 --> 01:28:36,560
Speaker 1: it is worth a well, well, we'll see how this

1556
01:28:36,680 --> 01:28:39,000
Speaker 1: how this plays out. Kamala Harris is out there everybody

1557
01:28:39,840 --> 01:28:45,959
Speaker 1: a campaign that the media wanted to work so badly,

1558
01:28:47,000 --> 01:28:50,640
Speaker 1: and there was always a media superficiality behind a lot

1559
01:28:50,680 --> 01:28:52,439
Speaker 1: of that. You know, they just thought that kamalas should

1560
01:28:52,479 --> 01:28:56,479
Speaker 1: be because they thought, yeah, Kamala should it should work

1561
01:28:56,560 --> 01:28:59,840
Speaker 1: for Kamala. And the reality is that she's not a

1562
01:29:00,000 --> 01:29:04,519
Speaker 1: particularly talented politician, not somebody who was ready for this,

1563
01:29:04,880 --> 01:29:07,880
Speaker 1: not somebody who was big league enough. And also I

1564
01:29:08,000 --> 01:29:11,560
Speaker 1: think Tulsi Gabberd was kind of the Kamala spoiler a

1565
01:29:11,640 --> 01:29:15,000
Speaker 1: little bit. I think Tulsie Gabbert got in there and

1566
01:29:15,640 --> 01:29:18,719
Speaker 1: made it really hard for Kamala to get any momentum.

1567
01:29:19,360 --> 01:29:22,400
Speaker 1: You know, even with the media all pushing behind or

1568
01:29:22,439 --> 01:29:27,439
Speaker 1: all the media efforts to do everything that they could do.

1569
01:29:29,120 --> 01:29:33,479
Speaker 1: It was not enough, it was insufficient. So Kamala Harris

1570
01:29:33,640 --> 01:29:37,360
Speaker 1: is out, as though, as though the Almighty heard from

1571
01:29:37,439 --> 01:29:40,800
Speaker 1: Buck's lips to God's ears that Kamala Harris was not

1572
01:29:41,160 --> 01:29:45,519
Speaker 1: gonna win the presidency. So today's the day that the

1573
01:29:45,600 --> 01:29:50,840
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris campaign calls it. Quins, don't cry too much, team.

1574
01:29:51,160 --> 01:29:54,519
Speaker 1: It's that time of year, my friends. People are now

1575
01:29:55,920 --> 01:29:59,440
Speaker 1: allowed to play their Christmas music because it's post Thanksgiving,

1576
01:30:00,080 --> 01:30:03,120
Speaker 1: and we know only Barbarians play Christmas music before Thanksgiving,

1577
01:30:03,840 --> 01:30:07,479
Speaker 1: but now they're allowed. So, you know, I was telling

1578
01:30:07,520 --> 01:30:09,439
Speaker 1: you I was in a taxi yesterday and the guy

1579
01:30:09,600 --> 01:30:13,519
Speaker 1: was blasting some Christmas music and I felt like such

1580
01:30:13,560 --> 01:30:16,240
Speaker 1: a grinch because I was like, really, I'm sitting in

1581
01:30:16,320 --> 01:30:19,519
Speaker 1: traffic with just this. You know, I don't know. I

1582
01:30:20,200 --> 01:30:23,000
Speaker 1: like Christmas music in limited doses, and I like it

1583
01:30:23,360 --> 01:30:25,800
Speaker 1: basically the week of Christmas. But then I'm not that.

1584
01:30:26,479 --> 01:30:28,040
Speaker 1: I don't know. What do you like? Do you like

1585
01:30:28,160 --> 01:30:32,080
Speaker 1: hanaka tuns? I think we discussed with Markers maybe two

1586
01:30:32,120 --> 01:30:35,040
Speaker 1: three three, that's right if you count Adam Sandler maybe,

1587
01:30:35,240 --> 01:30:37,840
Speaker 1: But so as a as a as a non Christian,

1588
01:30:37,920 --> 01:30:39,760
Speaker 1: what can you think of Christmas music? Just as a

1589
01:30:40,600 --> 01:30:43,280
Speaker 1: as a genre. It's a genre. There are some good

1590
01:30:43,320 --> 01:30:46,920
Speaker 1: ones that are just good musical songs, although my favorite

1591
01:30:46,960 --> 01:30:49,360
Speaker 1: is probably Alvin and Chipmunks. So I don't know what

1592
01:30:49,479 --> 01:30:51,960
Speaker 1: it says about me. There we go. So it's also

1593
01:30:52,000 --> 01:30:55,280
Speaker 1: the time of year you gotta think about getting people presents. Now.

1594
01:30:55,360 --> 01:30:57,559
Speaker 1: I don't know how many familiar with this, but there

1595
01:30:57,680 --> 01:31:01,320
Speaker 1: is a very fancy stationary bike company out there called

1596
01:31:01,720 --> 01:31:05,400
Speaker 1: Peloton or Pelton. I think it's actually just Peloton, but

1597
01:31:05,439 --> 01:31:07,519
Speaker 1: I'd like to do it the French wakes. It sounds fancier.

1598
01:31:08,280 --> 01:31:11,599
Speaker 1: Peloton released an ad just in time people to get

1599
01:31:11,640 --> 01:31:13,880
Speaker 1: I think these bikes are I know there are many

1600
01:31:14,000 --> 01:31:16,560
Speaker 1: thousands of dollars. I think they run somewhere in the

1601
01:31:16,760 --> 01:31:20,679
Speaker 1: like ten to fifteen thousand dollars range. Very expensive, okay,

1602
01:31:21,360 --> 01:31:24,280
Speaker 1: but you know when you could also just buy a

1603
01:31:24,479 --> 01:31:27,240
Speaker 1: bicycle or an old I don't know, or an old

1604
01:31:27,320 --> 01:31:30,400
Speaker 1: school stationary bike. I remember my grandfather have one at

1605
01:31:30,439 --> 01:31:32,280
Speaker 1: his house here in New York, and the thing was

1606
01:31:32,320 --> 01:31:35,120
Speaker 1: from the fifties, and you know, get on there and pedal, yeah,

1607
01:31:35,320 --> 01:31:39,439
Speaker 1: go and pedal your heart's content. But now Peloton is

1608
01:31:40,160 --> 01:31:42,400
Speaker 1: a very fancy bike and they put out this commercial

1609
01:31:43,280 --> 01:31:48,760
Speaker 1: that has gotten people totally outraged. I think I need

1610
01:31:48,800 --> 01:31:51,840
Speaker 1: to describe a little bit. So you're going to hear

1611
01:31:51,920 --> 01:31:54,479
Speaker 1: a female voice. And this female that is starting this

1612
01:31:54,600 --> 01:32:01,599
Speaker 1: commercial is esthetically perfect. She is beautiful, she is slender,

1613
01:32:02,080 --> 01:32:05,880
Speaker 1: she's clearly a model. And this is the commercial in

1614
01:32:06,000 --> 01:32:08,439
Speaker 1: this incredible house. But this woman looks like she's probably about,

1615
01:32:08,439 --> 01:32:10,360
Speaker 1: you know, twenty seven years old. I love all the

1616
01:32:10,400 --> 01:32:12,360
Speaker 1: ads where they got people in their twenties living in like,

1617
01:32:12,520 --> 01:32:14,719
Speaker 1: you know, million dollar homes, because you know who doesn't.

1618
01:32:14,920 --> 01:32:16,360
Speaker 1: People are to seeing where I live. When I was

1619
01:32:16,479 --> 01:32:18,439
Speaker 1: like twenty eight years old, I had like three roommates

1620
01:32:18,560 --> 01:32:20,799
Speaker 1: living in the basement of some place in the village. Anyway,

1621
01:32:21,120 --> 01:32:27,680
Speaker 1: play play Peloton, now Peloton. Give it up for a

1622
01:32:27,760 --> 01:32:31,080
Speaker 1: first time ride, first ride. I'm ulrvous, but I'm excited.

1623
01:32:31,520 --> 01:32:34,839
Speaker 1: Let's do this five days in a row. Be surprised.

1624
01:32:35,280 --> 01:32:40,439
Speaker 1: I am rising with the sun. I was totally worth

1625
01:32:40,479 --> 01:32:46,240
Speaker 1: it a year ago. I didn't realize how much this

1626
01:32:46,400 --> 01:32:51,600
Speaker 1: exchanged me. Thank you this holiday, give the gift of

1627
01:32:51,720 --> 01:32:57,439
Speaker 1: pel So there is this People have flipped out about

1628
01:32:57,479 --> 01:33:00,960
Speaker 1: this because you have this esthetically you know, physical, perfect,

1629
01:33:01,200 --> 01:33:04,720
Speaker 1: idealized woman who's like I'm so nervous to ride a

1630
01:33:05,640 --> 01:33:08,000
Speaker 1: stationary bike and the privacy of your own home. I mean,

1631
01:33:08,040 --> 01:33:10,160
Speaker 1: that's okay, I guess, but it seems to trust me,

1632
01:33:10,240 --> 01:33:13,760
Speaker 1: this woman is red. She's worked out plenty in her day.

1633
01:33:13,840 --> 01:33:16,680
Speaker 1: This is not her first her first time, and then

1634
01:33:17,320 --> 01:33:19,800
Speaker 1: I don't know how much it would change me. Now

1635
01:33:20,080 --> 01:33:23,360
Speaker 1: what changed? Right? People are being a brand and are talking.

1636
01:33:23,479 --> 01:33:26,360
Speaker 1: People are being a little sensitive about this. It is

1637
01:33:26,479 --> 01:33:29,960
Speaker 1: the case, and I have seen this in action once

1638
01:33:30,040 --> 01:33:32,639
Speaker 1: or twice in my life. It is the case where,

1639
01:33:33,080 --> 01:33:37,920
Speaker 1: especially as a male, if you give any kind of

1640
01:33:38,200 --> 01:33:42,719
Speaker 1: fitness related equipment as a Christmas gift to a female

1641
01:33:42,800 --> 01:33:46,840
Speaker 1: in your life, producer bread and this could backfire dramatically.

1642
01:33:46,960 --> 01:33:49,880
Speaker 1: You probably would be hit with that piece of equipment. Yeah,

1643
01:33:49,880 --> 01:33:52,479
Speaker 1: they do. They do not. It's not a thing that

1644
01:33:52,600 --> 01:33:57,680
Speaker 1: they get excited about. No, it's offensive unless she's offensive.

1645
01:33:58,360 --> 01:34:00,679
Speaker 1: I mean, if somebody said, buck, I want I'm gonna

1646
01:34:00,720 --> 01:34:03,200
Speaker 1: give you a for Christ's use, I'm gonna give you

1647
01:34:03,280 --> 01:34:05,400
Speaker 1: like a dozen sessions on a personal trainer, I'd say

1648
01:34:05,400 --> 01:34:08,960
Speaker 1: it's fantastic, I need it. I guess it's it's different

1649
01:34:08,960 --> 01:34:13,439
Speaker 1: if you know the person perhaps and maybe she's seen

1650
01:34:13,520 --> 01:34:15,960
Speaker 1: the other other commercial for Peloton, and she's, oh, I

1651
01:34:16,040 --> 01:34:17,920
Speaker 1: want this, I want this, and the husband gets it

1652
01:34:18,040 --> 01:34:22,360
Speaker 1: far right if she's been explicit backward okay, commercial, but

1653
01:34:23,000 --> 01:34:26,280
Speaker 1: it kind of reminds me of what at the wedding

1654
01:34:26,479 --> 01:34:29,559
Speaker 1: in the office with where Jim and Pam are having

1655
01:34:29,640 --> 01:34:32,519
Speaker 1: their like, you know, the rehearsal dinner. Yeah, and then

1656
01:34:32,800 --> 01:34:35,080
Speaker 1: the Jim's two brothers stand up and they yell out

1657
01:34:35,080 --> 01:34:37,799
Speaker 1: to their wives. You know, Pam's looking good, how about you, ladies?

1658
01:34:38,280 --> 01:34:43,719
Speaker 1: Tom for a little mo cardio, which is it would

1659
01:34:43,800 --> 01:34:47,000
Speaker 1: not go over well. I would not recommend anyone say

1660
01:34:47,040 --> 01:34:50,160
Speaker 1: that to their wife or anybody for that matter. That

1661
01:34:50,200 --> 01:34:53,080
Speaker 1: would not go over well. But this, this Peloton commercial

1662
01:34:53,160 --> 01:34:58,559
Speaker 1: got a lot of people, um really agitated, I would say,

1663
01:34:58,800 --> 01:35:00,840
Speaker 1: Edie after if you watch it, it makes even more

1664
01:35:00,920 --> 01:35:04,000
Speaker 1: sense because you're like this idealized existence. She's like, oh gosh,

1665
01:35:04,120 --> 01:35:07,280
Speaker 1: like my Peloton bike has changed me so much. She

1666
01:35:07,439 --> 01:35:10,599
Speaker 1: looks like she went from about one hundred and seven

1667
01:35:10,720 --> 01:35:14,959
Speaker 1: pounds to a hundred and seven pounds right in this commercial.

1668
01:35:15,120 --> 01:35:19,000
Speaker 1: And what was she filming for the arrogance bothered me too.

1669
01:35:19,040 --> 01:35:20,920
Speaker 1: As soon as she walks in the door, she's shooting

1670
01:35:20,960 --> 01:35:23,360
Speaker 1: a selfie of her talking about going in the bike.

1671
01:35:23,400 --> 01:35:25,000
Speaker 1: As soon as she wakes up, the cameras right in

1672
01:35:25,040 --> 01:35:28,120
Speaker 1: her face there there. I will tell you I live

1673
01:35:28,200 --> 01:35:30,040
Speaker 1: in a building here in New York where they have

1674
01:35:30,120 --> 01:35:33,519
Speaker 1: a gym in the building, and they are in fact,

1675
01:35:34,120 --> 01:35:38,400
Speaker 1: they do, in fact have a peloton in there. So

1676
01:35:38,479 --> 01:35:41,000
Speaker 1: I might have to try this now, just so I

1677
01:35:41,120 --> 01:35:44,880
Speaker 1: can give you from the front lines of Pelton. I

1678
01:35:45,000 --> 01:35:47,200
Speaker 1: can give you my assessment as to whether or not

1679
01:35:47,320 --> 01:35:49,559
Speaker 1: this is life changing. And I can use a lot

1680
01:35:49,560 --> 01:35:51,000
Speaker 1: of I mean, I should spend an hour of Dana

1681
01:35:51,040 --> 01:35:53,439
Speaker 1: Pelton bike. I gotta work out more. It's because there's

1682
01:35:53,439 --> 01:35:55,240
Speaker 1: a video that you can do it with other people

1683
01:35:55,240 --> 01:35:57,240
Speaker 1: around the world. Is that what makes it so expensive?

1684
01:35:57,439 --> 01:35:59,880
Speaker 1: You can watch? Yeah, I think so. Okay, the class

1685
01:36:00,000 --> 01:36:02,519
Speaker 1: they have like a video and they video it tracks

1686
01:36:02,600 --> 01:36:05,120
Speaker 1: you and it's all metrics, c and things like that.

1687
01:36:05,240 --> 01:36:07,320
Speaker 1: I don't know, that's just kind of a this is

1688
01:36:07,400 --> 01:36:09,960
Speaker 1: what the people say. But see, I take the position

1689
01:36:11,120 --> 01:36:13,439
Speaker 1: and this is and I know that people will say, oh, black,

1690
01:36:13,520 --> 01:36:15,519
Speaker 1: that's terrible. And by the way, anything that we advertise

1691
01:36:15,640 --> 01:36:17,760
Speaker 1: on this show as a gift you should definitely get

1692
01:36:18,000 --> 01:36:22,000
Speaker 1: because they're amazing. But in my family, among the adults.

1693
01:36:22,160 --> 01:36:24,880
Speaker 1: You know, I still I give gifts to people that

1694
01:36:25,080 --> 01:36:27,960
Speaker 1: you know, do work for me, do people that you

1695
01:36:28,040 --> 01:36:30,439
Speaker 1: know are in my life. That especially if people really,

1696
01:36:30,880 --> 01:36:33,000
Speaker 1: you know, in New York you're superintendent of the building,

1697
01:36:33,000 --> 01:36:34,840
Speaker 1: because everyone here, you know, lives in buildings where there

1698
01:36:34,880 --> 01:36:38,040
Speaker 1: tend to be a staff that takes care of the building. Um,

1699
01:36:39,040 --> 01:36:41,240
Speaker 1: you know, you give those people a gift for Christmas

1700
01:36:41,320 --> 01:36:44,320
Speaker 1: cash Usually I do all that, for sure, But among

1701
01:36:44,400 --> 01:36:46,560
Speaker 1: family members, I just think that there's especially because I

1702
01:36:46,600 --> 01:36:48,800
Speaker 1: come from one. I'm one of four kids and my

1703
01:36:48,880 --> 01:36:51,840
Speaker 1: two parents or six of us. It's just such a hassle.

1704
01:36:51,880 --> 01:36:54,760
Speaker 1: Ever got I gotta get at least five presents, and

1705
01:36:54,920 --> 01:36:57,880
Speaker 1: if I if I, you know, have a significant other,

1706
01:37:01,040 --> 01:37:03,080
Speaker 1: as has been the case in the past, if I

1707
01:37:03,160 --> 01:37:05,559
Speaker 1: have a significant other, I gotta get that person a gift,

1708
01:37:05,720 --> 01:37:08,240
Speaker 1: and that one has to be expensive. Of course. It's

1709
01:37:08,240 --> 01:37:10,479
Speaker 1: all such a hassle. Why can't we all just be

1710
01:37:10,600 --> 01:37:12,920
Speaker 1: together and celebrate the holiday for what it's really about.

1711
01:37:13,640 --> 01:37:17,240
Speaker 1: I agree, the birth of Jesus, not commercialism, thank you

1712
01:37:17,400 --> 01:37:19,800
Speaker 1: very much. So, you know, I just think that that's

1713
01:37:19,840 --> 01:37:21,760
Speaker 1: where we should be as a society. I call it

1714
01:37:21,880 --> 01:37:24,360
Speaker 1: going grinch. Do it with a smile. It's the way

1715
01:37:24,400 --> 01:37:28,240
Speaker 1: to go. And with that roll call, time rock and roll.

1716
01:37:28,400 --> 01:37:39,880
Speaker 1: Fellow patriots, we made ours go up to an eleven.

1717
01:37:51,800 --> 01:37:56,439
Speaker 1: It's time for roll call. It is time for roll call.

1718
01:37:56,840 --> 01:38:01,400
Speaker 1: Let's get into the Facebook posts here and we get

1719
01:38:01,439 --> 01:38:07,760
Speaker 1: to it. John Shieldsa, a real News fan. Pokahon has

1720
01:38:07,800 --> 01:38:12,400
Speaker 1: said a democracy should work by popular vote, and to

1721
01:38:12,520 --> 01:38:16,000
Speaker 1: call her old fashioned for thinking that way, maybe I'm

1722
01:38:16,000 --> 01:38:18,599
Speaker 1: a little rusty on my history, but I don't recall

1723
01:38:18,640 --> 01:38:20,920
Speaker 1: America ever being a democracy where elections were voted by

1724
01:38:21,240 --> 01:38:24,680
Speaker 1: We're decided by popular vote. Well, John, it's even more

1725
01:38:24,760 --> 01:38:26,920
Speaker 1: interesting than that in some ways, because if you go

1726
01:38:27,120 --> 01:38:30,599
Speaker 1: back to the origins of the concept of democracy, which

1727
01:38:30,640 --> 01:38:33,479
Speaker 1: we tend to find, as tend to think is ancient Greece.

1728
01:38:34,360 --> 01:38:39,920
Speaker 1: In ancient Greece, only a very small number of the

1729
01:38:40,040 --> 01:38:46,280
Speaker 1: actual people living in the polis, in the city, in

1730
01:38:46,360 --> 01:38:49,080
Speaker 1: the city state, we're able to vote. It's not like

1731
01:38:49,240 --> 01:38:53,640
Speaker 1: in ancient Athens they walked around and every adult was

1732
01:38:53,880 --> 01:38:56,719
Speaker 1: given the right to make a determination. It was actually

1733
01:38:56,760 --> 01:39:00,360
Speaker 1: a very very small group of citizens, citizens who were ablished,

1734
01:39:00,400 --> 01:39:05,720
Speaker 1: who were landholders, who had some degree of sway in affairs,

1735
01:39:07,040 --> 01:39:10,439
Speaker 1: and it was definitely not women and it was not slaves.

1736
01:39:11,000 --> 01:39:15,720
Speaker 1: There were slaves in ancient Greece, lots of them. And yeah,

1737
01:39:15,880 --> 01:39:18,360
Speaker 1: there there was a small percentage overall the population that

1738
01:39:18,400 --> 01:39:20,680
Speaker 1: would have been able to vote. So it's interesting that

1739
01:39:22,040 --> 01:39:25,600
Speaker 1: we now think of democracy as every person who is

1740
01:39:25,600 --> 01:39:27,840
Speaker 1: an adult gets to vote. But that's really a more

1741
01:39:27,920 --> 01:39:30,640
Speaker 1: modern innovation. It was not the case before. So you know,

1742
01:39:30,720 --> 01:39:34,959
Speaker 1: women suffrage did not become a thing until pretty recently.

1743
01:39:35,920 --> 01:39:41,680
Speaker 1: Brian Buck, I enjoy your analysis and your ability to articulate.

1744
01:39:42,400 --> 01:39:44,639
Speaker 1: I think you may be off on a couple of predictions, though.

1745
01:39:44,960 --> 01:39:49,120
Speaker 1: Oh first, I don't think they're going to vote to

1746
01:39:49,160 --> 01:39:50,960
Speaker 1: impeach for the simple fact that they don't want to

1747
01:39:51,080 --> 01:39:55,040
Speaker 1: risk Trump getting a fair trial if they did. I'd

1748
01:39:55,120 --> 01:39:57,920
Speaker 1: almost want Republicans to go along with it so this

1749
01:39:58,040 --> 01:40:00,559
Speaker 1: mess can be handled properly and watch democrat at scramble

1750
01:40:00,560 --> 01:40:02,479
Speaker 1: as all their dirty laundry goes on display. But with

1751
01:40:02,560 --> 01:40:06,080
Speaker 1: the ads your report coming out, it may not be necessary. Second,

1752
01:40:06,280 --> 01:40:09,880
Speaker 1: I do believe Trump will go scorch earth on Democrats

1753
01:40:09,960 --> 01:40:13,280
Speaker 1: after the report comes out. He has said repeatedly that

1754
01:40:13,400 --> 01:40:15,679
Speaker 1: this should never be allowed to happen to another president,

1755
01:40:16,000 --> 01:40:17,560
Speaker 1: and one way to ensure that it doesn't is to

1756
01:40:17,600 --> 01:40:21,840
Speaker 1: hold people accountable and an exact harsh consequences. Trump is

1757
01:40:21,880 --> 01:40:23,799
Speaker 1: a one to bluff. This would be a very interesting

1758
01:40:23,880 --> 01:40:26,920
Speaker 1: election year for shore Shields High. Well, Brian will get

1759
01:40:26,920 --> 01:40:30,439
Speaker 1: to see who's right on these predictions. I'll probably have

1760
01:40:30,600 --> 01:40:34,760
Speaker 1: to revisit them and we'll see who's correct. I'm telling

1761
01:40:34,800 --> 01:40:36,840
Speaker 1: you they're going to impeach him, but you're saying no,

1762
01:40:38,040 --> 01:40:43,599
Speaker 1: I'm saying yes. And then on to Trump going scorch

1763
01:40:43,640 --> 01:40:46,200
Speaker 1: shirt on Democrats after the report comes out. I don't

1764
01:40:46,240 --> 01:40:49,200
Speaker 1: see how that would happen. What's he gonna do. He's

1765
01:40:49,240 --> 01:40:53,000
Speaker 1: gonna fire civil service employees even after there's been an

1766
01:40:53,000 --> 01:40:56,200
Speaker 1: inspector General report that does not recommend their firing. I

1767
01:40:56,439 --> 01:40:59,920
Speaker 1: don't know, Brian, what that accountability would even look like

1768
01:41:00,120 --> 01:41:02,000
Speaker 1: if Trump wanted to do it. Now, that's it. I

1769
01:41:02,280 --> 01:41:07,160
Speaker 1: could be wrong. It has It has happened before, seldom,

1770
01:41:07,640 --> 01:41:10,880
Speaker 1: but it has happened. So that is a possibility that

1771
01:41:10,960 --> 01:41:13,599
Speaker 1: we should be aware of. Um, we'll have to take

1772
01:41:13,640 --> 01:41:16,519
Speaker 1: a look at it. We're looking at that, as Trump

1773
01:41:16,600 --> 01:41:18,760
Speaker 1: likes us say, we're looking at that. He says that

1774
01:41:18,800 --> 01:41:24,880
Speaker 1: about a lot of things. M Adam buck Pot roast

1775
01:41:24,960 --> 01:41:28,519
Speaker 1: if done correctly is amazing. Cook it low and slow,

1776
01:41:28,760 --> 01:41:33,920
Speaker 1: tenderness is key shields high. Well, Adam, thank you so

1777
01:41:34,200 --> 01:41:39,960
Speaker 1: much man for something that I appreciate it. And uh yeah, man,

1778
01:41:40,120 --> 01:41:43,360
Speaker 1: I will have to check out some pot roast and

1779
01:41:44,200 --> 01:41:49,679
Speaker 1: next thing we got, Paul Buck, you know what strikes

1780
01:41:49,720 --> 01:41:53,280
Speaker 1: me as hilarious about this whole get Trump era. If

1781
01:41:53,320 --> 01:41:56,440
Speaker 1: they'd stuck with their very first original premise for investigation,

1782
01:41:56,520 --> 01:41:59,840
Speaker 1: they probably could have nailed him. Avon Forgets. The earliest

1783
01:42:00,000 --> 01:42:04,160
Speaker 1: instigations of him were for ties to organize crime. I

1784
01:42:04,200 --> 01:42:08,479
Speaker 1: guess they thought Russian collusion tested. Better keep it up,

1785
01:42:08,680 --> 01:42:10,920
Speaker 1: She'll tie, all right, Paul, I mean I don't. I

1786
01:42:10,960 --> 01:42:12,759
Speaker 1: don't think that they're going to get Trump on anything,

1787
01:42:12,840 --> 01:42:19,519
Speaker 1: but I do appreciate the outside the box thinking, let's

1788
01:42:19,520 --> 01:42:22,200
Speaker 1: see where we got here I wanted I wanted to

1789
01:42:22,200 --> 01:42:24,240
Speaker 1: get into. I tend to go to the Facebook because

1790
01:42:24,240 --> 01:42:26,200
Speaker 1: it's it's easy, but I also want to look at

1791
01:42:26,280 --> 01:42:28,640
Speaker 1: what we got in the Team Buck. Team Buck at

1792
01:42:28,720 --> 01:42:34,880
Speaker 1: iHeartMedia dot com. That's the email address you want to

1793
01:42:34,880 --> 01:42:37,439
Speaker 1: send things to us? There, Ken writes the Buck don't stop.

1794
01:42:38,240 --> 01:42:40,320
Speaker 1: Can I contribute a nightly feature to the show A

1795
01:42:40,439 --> 01:42:43,920
Speaker 1: Thousand Things? We all should know. Try these out amongst

1796
01:42:44,000 --> 01:42:47,320
Speaker 1: your staff and see how they like it. Yawning is

1797
01:42:47,360 --> 01:42:53,639
Speaker 1: caused by a warm brain. Only one America. Wait what? Okay,

1798
01:42:53,720 --> 01:42:58,920
Speaker 1: thank you? Ken? Whatever? We got another Ken, a different Ken.

1799
01:43:03,080 --> 01:43:05,960
Speaker 1: Let's see Friday, the President declared the Cartels is terror groups.

1800
01:43:05,960 --> 01:43:08,280
Speaker 1: I suspect that Trump has ordered a kind of Cicario

1801
01:43:08,439 --> 01:43:13,240
Speaker 1: Cia action with your contacts. You should suss it out, Okay, Ken, Yeah,

1802
01:43:13,280 --> 01:43:16,800
Speaker 1: I'll take a look. I'll take a look. Let's see

1803
01:43:16,840 --> 01:43:24,640
Speaker 1: what we'd get here. Here you go, we get next up,

1804
01:43:24,760 --> 01:43:28,320
Speaker 1: somebody talking about how the audio is wrong. I don't

1805
01:43:28,400 --> 01:43:30,719
Speaker 1: understand what we're doing differently or wrong with the audio.

1806
01:43:30,800 --> 01:43:34,280
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know. That's got to be

1807
01:43:34,400 --> 01:43:38,439
Speaker 1: somebody else's to look into that, Harry, right Buck. You

1808
01:43:38,520 --> 01:43:42,599
Speaker 1: might want to check out the third season, fifth episode

1809
01:43:42,640 --> 01:43:46,280
Speaker 1: of The Crown, entitled Coup. It concerns the attempt by

1810
01:43:46,320 --> 01:43:50,280
Speaker 1: Conservative persons to recruit Lord mount Batten to replace Harold

1811
01:43:50,320 --> 01:43:53,280
Speaker 1: Wilson's Socialist government after the massive devaluation of the pound

1812
01:43:53,400 --> 01:43:56,760
Speaker 1: and further deterioration in the British economy in nineteen sixty seven.

1813
01:43:56,800 --> 01:43:59,559
Speaker 1: I think that's the correct year. Yes, it is slow,

1814
01:44:00,000 --> 01:44:04,559
Speaker 1: but an interesting take on conservative socialist politics of the time.

1815
01:44:07,720 --> 01:44:09,240
Speaker 1: By the way, I think it's hilarious. No one gets

1816
01:44:09,280 --> 01:44:12,280
Speaker 1: that America is nearly as socialist under under FDR as

1817

01:44:33,120 --> 01:44:35,920
Speaker 1: millions of dollars in our taxes to Shillery and the Dems,

1823

1842
01:45:51,800 --> 01:45:54,840
Speaker 1: what is this people? We got a lot of We

1843
01:45:54,920 --> 01:45:57,479
Speaker 1: got like ten emails about unequal audio levels. What is

1844
01:45:57,520 --> 01:45:59,400

Speaker 1: I put her in and where Mike Marko puts it in,

1846
01:46:02,200 --> 01:46:07,080
Speaker 1: it's all level. So we might have to ask an engineer.

1847
01:46:07,120 --> 01:46:08,600
Speaker 1: I need to get you like a special gift so

1848
01:46:08,640 --> 01:46:10,400
Speaker 1: that you'll actually make the audio good for the audience,

1849
01:46:10,439 --> 01:46:12,640
Speaker 1: so that I make this anymore perfect, just like that

1851
01:46:17,000 --> 01:46:19,280

1852
01:46:19,439 --> 01:46:20,920
Speaker 1: so that he actually makes sure the audio is good.

1853
01:46:20,960 --> 01:46:22,519
Speaker 1: I don't have the bribe Producer Mark too, because when

01:46:26,920 --> 01:46:30,120

1857
01:46:30,200 --> 01:46:32,040
Speaker 1: is thinking about the freedom hunt enough right now. He's
