Yes, I wrote it, 49 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,239 Speaker 1: but let me give you a little bit of a backstory. 50 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,079 Speaker 1: So I I have spent the last three or four 51 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 1: years writing columns, and many of them about how Hillary 52 00:02:55,600 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 1: Clinton broke the law and yet she was clear beard 53 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:04,920 Speaker 1: by James Comey Andrew McKay, Peter Struck Lisa Page at 54 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: the FBI, end people at the Department of Justice. And 55 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 1: on the very same day that Comby announced he was 56 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 1: clearing Hillary Clinton, his FBI was meeting secretly in London 57 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:26,840 Speaker 1: with the author of the fictitious phony anti Trump dossier, 58 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 1: which was funded by Hillary Clinton and the Democrats, and 59 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 1: that document, together with many other unfounded accusations, would be 60 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 1: exploited in a malicious attempt to frame Donald Trump for 61 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 1: unidentified crimes that he never committed, and that was the 62 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 1: beginning of the Russia host July two thousand sixteen. Interestingly, 63 00:03:55,160 --> 00:04:00,040 Speaker 1: James Comey doesn't remember the moment that he decided that 64 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton had committed crimes, and that was one of 65 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 1: the more stunning revelations contained in the Department of Justice 66 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 1: recent report by the Inspector. Generally, it's worth reading, and 67 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 1: if you want to shortcut, just go to roughly page 68 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 1: one eight seven of the i G report and read 69 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,599 Speaker 1: the next ten pages, because here's what you're going to learn. 70 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: On May second, two thousand sixteen, Comey, then, the FBI Director, 71 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 1: sits down at his personal computer and he composes a 72 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 1: statement summarizing all of Hillary Clinton's illegality, her mishandling of 73 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 1: classified documents, and he concludes in his writing that she 74 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 1: was quote unquote grossly negligent. And he wrote it down 75 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 1: not once, but he wrote it down twice. Now those 76 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 1: words have meaning. They are pivotal words in the law. 77 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:03,479 Speaker 1: They are drawn directly from a federal statute eighteen USC. 78 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:08,000 Speaker 1: Seven ninety three, making it a felony to handle classified 79 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:12,599 Speaker 1: documents in a grossly negligent manner. And so based on 80 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 1: that finding by Comey, Clinton should have faced a multiple 81 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 1: count criminal indictment that day, since the FBI had discovered 82 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,160 Speaker 1: that she had stored not one or two, or ten 83 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,360 Speaker 1: or twelve, but a hundred and twenty hundred and ten 84 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 1: classified emails on her unauthorized private computer service. And if 85 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:39,480 Speaker 1: you don't think Russia has those hundred and ten classified 86 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 1: documents after we now know they also hack the d 87 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:46,920 Speaker 1: n C server, then you're smoking something. The Russians have it, 88 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:51,479 Speaker 1: the Chinese have it, everybody has it. Because her unauthorized 89 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:57,040 Speaker 1: server was available for all to obtain. It was unprotected, 90 00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,479 Speaker 1: and that's why it's against the law for her to 91 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 1: have done that. Other people have been prosecuted for similar conduct. 92 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:10,760 Speaker 1: The jeopardized national security in violation of the law. And 93 00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:14,040 Speaker 1: I devote several pages going through each and every one 94 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:18,440 Speaker 1: of those individuals in my book, The Russia Hoax comes 95 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:22,279 Speaker 1: out on Tuesday. You can order it right now. But 96 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:26,360 Speaker 1: why is it that those people were prosecuted and Hillary 97 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:32,359 Speaker 1: Clinton wasn't Comey saw to it that no charges would 98 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 1: ever be brought against Hillary Clinton. And he had his 99 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:40,720 Speaker 1: minions who were on board, Peter Struck, Lisa Page, Andrew 100 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:45,279 Speaker 1: mcab the whole gang over at the FBI. So here's 101 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 1: what happened. The Inspector General questions Comey about his conduct, 102 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 1: and Comey admits to the i G that, yeah, I 103 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,840 Speaker 1: wrote that may second statement. I penned every word of 104 00:06:56,920 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 1: it myself. But then he offers the most implausible claim 105 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:06,040 Speaker 1: I think I've ever heard. And here's a quote from 106 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 1: the i G. Comy did not recall that his original 107 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 1: draft use the term gross negligence, and he doesn't recall 108 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 1: any discussions about that issue. End of quote. James, how 109 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:26,560 Speaker 1: perfectly convenient of you. You suffered a complete memory lapse. Now, 110 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: of course you and I know that Comey's amnesia is 111 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 1: utterly preposterous. His perfecty is no surprise. The man is unscrupulous. 112 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 1: Look up that word and Comey's picture should be next 113 00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 1: to it. Comey would have us believe that, as FBI director, 114 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 1: he memorialized in print on his computer his conclusion that 115 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 1: the leading candidate for president United States committed crimes. And yet, oh, gee, 116 00:07:56,840 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 1: you know I I don't recall that I don't recall 117 00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 1: writing the incriminating words. I don't recall talking about it 118 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: with my staff. Yeah, right, James, guess what there are notes. 119 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 1: The truth is that Comy does remember what he wrote 120 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 1: that Clinton was guilty of crimes, because he participated in 121 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 1: subsequent discussions with top officials at the FBI about Clinton's 122 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 1: gross negligence and her crimes. Several meetings were held on 123 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:36,560 Speaker 1: the subject. Contemporaneous notes proved that Comey was in attendance. 124 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 1: Comy participated in those discussions. Those records show that, yes, 125 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:46,439 Speaker 1: Comey was convinced that Clinton broke the law, but he 126 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 1: was determined that he was going to clear her anyway 127 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 1: now in order to achieve that legal somersault, that convicting 128 00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 1: terminology grow negligence that would have to be stricken from 129 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 1: his statement, how else do you absorb, absolve the the 130 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 1: soon to be Democratic nominee for President United States. You've 131 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 1: got to clear her path to the White House. So 132 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:19,679 Speaker 1: this is what happened. June six, the FBI lead investigator 133 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:21,199 Speaker 1: on the case, a guy with the name of Peter 134 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 1: Struck we all now know him, sits down at his 135 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 1: office computer to cleanse the statement of gross negligence. And 136 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 1: guess who's there leaning over his shoulder is FBI lawyer 137 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 1: Lisa Page. With of course, he's been having an extramarital affair. 138 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 1: So the two of them together decide to substitute the 139 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:49,280 Speaker 1: words extremely careless to make it appear less criminally culpable. 140 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 1: Lisa Page actually told the inspector general quote to use 141 00:09:55,520 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 1: a term that actually has a legal definition would be confusing. Hey, 142 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 1: guess what, Lisa Shirley would I mean, how do you 143 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 1: clear Clinton by using a phrase that has a legal 144 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:12,680 Speaker 1: meaning under the law. So, in other words, this was 145 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 1: all just a clever legal charade conjured up by Comey 146 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 1: and Struck and Lisa Page to exculpaid Hillary Clinton. And 147 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 1: you know there's more to this story. I mean Struck 148 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:31,960 Speaker 1: in Page also expunge from Comey's statement his reference to 149 00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:36,680 Speaker 1: another statute that Clinton had plainly violated. So, with the 150 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 1: director's consent, his encouragement, they sanitized his findings of fact, 151 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 1: his contortions of of law, and Clinton was free and clear. 152 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 1: While the FBI did not even interview her at this stage, 153 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 1: how in the world do they know her intent? It 154 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 1: was a pre conceived sham, a predetermined outcome. There really 155 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 1: was no investigation. It was all a charade, and Comey's 156 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 1: machinations are all over the place. He offers to the 157 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:18,959 Speaker 1: i G. Another absurd explanation. He says, and this is 158 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 1: a quote from the IG report, It was his understanding, 159 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:28,960 Speaker 1: based on the statutes legislative history, the Congress intended there 160 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 1: to be some level of willfulness under the gross negligence statute. Really, 161 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 1: I got news for you, James. You never read the 162 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 1: legislative history I did. It's not there. Your statement of 163 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 1: the i G is demonstrably untrue because Congress amended the 164 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:55,600 Speaker 1: Espionage Act to create this new category called gross negligence, 165 00:11:55,960 --> 00:12:02,200 Speaker 1: and they specifically decided to eliminate in intent or wilfulness. 166 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 1: So Comy just invented this excuse as a ruse to 167 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 1: try to avoid charging Clinton. You know, amnesia is clearly 168 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 1: contagious over the FBI. Peter Struck during his congressional testimony, 169 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:24,199 Speaker 1: pretended he didn't remember making the change on his computer. 170 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:30,559 Speaker 1: But guess what he did implicate Comey. Here's a quote. Ultimately, 171 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 1: he Comy made the decision to change the wording. A 172 00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 1: wait a minute, how could Comey order a changing words? 173 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:46,600 Speaker 1: He doesn't remember writing. Look, their stories don't match absence 174 00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:52,720 Speaker 1: some serious dementia, these overt lies or evidence of a 175 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 1: conspicuous cover up, And that is just part of the 176 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 1: Russia hoax. That was the beginning. And then they get 177 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:09,440 Speaker 1: their hands on that anti Trump, phony, fabricated dossier, and 178 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 1: the FBI is off to the races. Peter Struck signs 179 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 1: the documents launching the Trump Russia collusion probe without necessary 180 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:26,959 Speaker 1: facts to justify the probe. They were a never There 181 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:31,439 Speaker 1: was never evidence of any crimes to justify a criminal investigation. 182 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:38,480 Speaker 1: There was never any intelligence to justify a counter intelligence investigation. 183 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 1: They made it up. And then they went to Affis 184 00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:47,640 Speaker 1: a judge and using this phony dossier, which they knew 185 00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 1: was fake. Comey later admitted it was unverified. They nevertheless 186 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 1: deceived the court. They hid the evidence that Hillary had 187 00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:00,319 Speaker 1: paid for it, and they obtained a warm rent to 188 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:05,400 Speaker 1: spy on the Trump campaign.

It is 210 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 1: a defense of the rule of law, which I believe 211 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 1: came under sustained attack by high government officials like Comey 212 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 1: and McCabe and Struck and page who abuse their positions 213 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 1: of power to subvert our system of justice and undermine 214 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 1: the democratic process.

They not only 220 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:13,480 Speaker 1: absolved Hillary Clinton violating felony statutes as we were talking 221 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:18,680 Speaker 1: about moments ago, but these people weaponized the law and 222 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 1: regulations to investigate Trump without legal justification why they were 223 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:31,080 Speaker 1: trying to destroy him. And as they did that, they 224 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 1: compromised essential principles and they damaged the nation's trust. And 225 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:40,600 Speaker 1: this is the story of my book, The Russia Hoax, 226 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:44,120 Speaker 1: And we want to hear from you, So give us 227 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 1: a call eight hundred nine for one, seven three two 228 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 1: six Again, that's eight hundred nine for one Sean.

We've been 237 00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 1: talking about the Russia hoax and that that is actually 238 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:45,920 Speaker 1: the title of my book that comes out on Tuesday 239 00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:50,479 Speaker 1: of next week, July. The subtitle is The Illicit Scheme 240 00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:54,239 Speaker 1: to Clear Hillary Clinton in frame Donald Trump. You can 241 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:57,440 Speaker 1: order it on Barnes and Noble dot com, Amazon dot com, 242 00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 1: just go to Hannity dot com. The hoax itself is this, 243 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 1: there was never any plausible evidence that Donald Trump or 244 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 1: anybody in his campaign collaborated with Russia to win the presidency. Zero. 245 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:18,160 Speaker 1: There have been a bunch of indictments by Robert Mueller. 246 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:23,160 Speaker 1: How many of them, I ask you involve Trump Russia collusion. 247 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 1: Let me help you with the answer. The answer, you 248 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:32,400 Speaker 1: know it is zero to launch that investigation against the president. 249 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:38,200 Speaker 1: Facts were invented or exaggerated, the laws were perverted or ignored, 250 00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:43,760 Speaker 1: and guess what, the law enforcers became the law breakers 251 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:47,879 Speaker 1: and James Comey scheme to trigger the appointment of his 252 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 1: longtime friend ally and colleague, Robert Muller is special counsel. 253 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:59,040 Speaker 1: That was a devious maneuver by what I think is 254 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 1: an unscrewed ulis man. Comey's insinuation when he testified that 255 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:10,480 Speaker 1: the president obstructed justice. That was another myth, another canard 256 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:16,680 Speaker 1: designed to inflame the liberal mainstream media, and sure enough 257 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:21,920 Speaker 1: they became winning accessories. They were only happy to do it. 258 00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:26,240 Speaker 1: The Russia hoax, the illicit scheme to clare Hillary Clinton 259 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:30,400 Speaker 1: in frame Donald Trump. Let's go to our callers right now. 260 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:36,119 Speaker 1: Attila joins this from Kawani, Wisconsin.

What what do you think of 263 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:44,879 Speaker 1: this whole thing. It's a It's a great honor to 264 00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:46,760 Speaker 1: talk to you. And I'm going to rush out and 265 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:49,639 Speaker 1: get your book in our library. Have convinced them to 266 00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:55,440 Speaker 1: order your book too. But we're already seeing Gregory the 267 00:19:55,600 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 1: dual system of justice which um Podesta gets immunity of 268 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:06,240 Speaker 1: now by Mueller right and and um and we have 269 00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:10,720 Speaker 1: a UM Trump's campaign manager under lock and key for 270 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 1: twenty three hours a day that that should tell us 271 00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:17,720 Speaker 1: all what we need to know about the the corruption 272 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:20,400 Speaker 1: that's going on. And now they're trying to go after 273 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:24,560 Speaker 1: Jim Jordan's and and get rid of Deva Nunez h 274 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,879 Speaker 1: what there, it's a it's a head hunting list. You know, 275 00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:31,919 Speaker 1: I've been a lawyer for forty years or so. I'd 276 00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 1: have to actually sit down and count them. I passed 277 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:37,199 Speaker 1: the bar exam and became a lawyer. In that my 278 00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 1: numbers are off. I apologize, but um, I have never 279 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:47,480 Speaker 1: seen a case in which a prosecutor gives five immunity 280 00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:54,480 Speaker 1: deals to the associates of the target of an investigation 281 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:58,680 Speaker 1: and that prosecutor gets nothing in return. This was the 282 00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:02,440 Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton case. Oli her pals who were in on it, 283 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 1: the mishandling of classified documents, the destruction of documents, UH, 284 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 1: the defiance of lawful subpoenas. They all get immunity. Do 285 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:20,960 Speaker 1: they testify against Hillary? No, and James Comey. Let two 286 00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 1: of them actually sit in on Hillary Clinton's FBI interview 287 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:33,959 Speaker 1: with Peter Struck and a few other hacks. And you know, 288 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:39,800 Speaker 1: she said, I don't recall roughly forty times. The only 289 00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:43,639 Speaker 1: thing that Hillary Clinton could remember was her name and 290 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:46,760 Speaker 1: date of birth, and she probably fudged on the ladder. 291 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 1: I mean it was a total charade. And so you know, 292 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:59,199 Speaker 1: talk about prosecutorial misconduct and abusive office. That is the 293 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:04,159 Speaker 1: prime example. And then those same people conjured out of 294 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:09,680 Speaker 1: thin air fake evidence to go after Donald Trump. And 295 00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:16,080 Speaker 1: my book has seven foot notes. It was originally five pages. 296 00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:18,679 Speaker 1: We cut it down to about three inter pages. I 297 00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 1: wrote every page, every word myself. I spent seven hours 298 00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:29,920 Speaker 1: a day, seven days a week for four months, and 299 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:34,280 Speaker 1: then a month worth of revisions and additions. So five 300 00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 1: months writing this day in and day out, night and 301 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:43,240 Speaker 1: day uh. And I'm actually very proud of the result 302 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:48,639 Speaker 1: because I think I lay out the meticulous evidence of 303 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 1: how our system of justice was abused by people in 304 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 1: high positions of power. Until thanks for your call. Let 305 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:00,640 Speaker 1: me go to the next caller, lou Is danny By 306 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 1: in Connecticut. U, thank you very much for taking the cause. 307 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:08,760 Speaker 1: Just to preface my question, which I know you're aware of, 308 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 1: I been biting at the bridle. This whole thing has 309 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:18,640 Speaker 1: just been a maddening experience to watch from afar, especially 310 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:22,879 Speaker 1: having been in law enforcement, to watch the abuses to 311 00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:26,600 Speaker 1: have worked in the federal Task Force to work in 312 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 1: the state task Force. I've done with a lot of 313 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:35,040 Speaker 1: law enforcement personnel, and I don't know any of them 314 00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 1: who would have done what the FBI did. My question 315 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:42,439 Speaker 1: is this, we have probable cause if we had a 316 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:47,240 Speaker 1: real a G, a real deputy a G that uh, 317 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:52,920 Speaker 1: these FBI agents, UH, some management uh, even some of 318 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:58,639 Speaker 1: the people on Mueller's side, uh, permitted crimes to take place. 319 00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:04,879 Speaker 1: Destruction of evidence, uh, whether it's uh witness testimony or 320 00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:12,399 Speaker 1: hard physical evidence with immunity deals. Yeah, and I know 321 00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:15,360 Speaker 1: where you're going. And and yeah, for obstruction of justice. 322 00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:19,800 Speaker 1: I mean, look, an FBI agent can obstruct his own investigation, 323 00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 1: it's substruction of justice. The FBI director did that, in 324 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:26,159 Speaker 1: my judgment, and he's also guilty of a variety of 325 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 1: other felony statues, including abuse of power. UH and uh 326 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:36,159 Speaker 1: perhaps perjury and Comy himself may well have violated the 327 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 1: same Espionage Act UH laws that Hillary Clinton did. I mean, 328 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:46,359 Speaker 1: he gave seven presidential memos that he stole from the 329 00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:51,960 Speaker 1: federal government. He gave at least four of them to 330 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:55,480 Speaker 1: somebody who was not authorized to have them, and according 331 00:24:55,560 --> 00:25:01,480 Speaker 1: to UH, the FBI uh, some of that information was classified. 332 00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 1: They had to go into the individual's office and to 333 00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:09,720 Speaker 1: uh to sanitize the office and gather the evidence and 334 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:12,560 Speaker 1: documents so that nobody else got their hands on them. 335 00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 1: What does that tell you? So all of these people 336 00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:18,879 Speaker 1: could be prosecuted, including James Comey, but you've got to 337 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 1: have a an attorney general who has the will and 338 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:27,520 Speaker 1: the knowledge to do it, and you don't have that 339 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 1: in Jeff Sessions, probably the worst attorney general in modern history. 340 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 1: And you've got Rod Rosenstein, the Deputy Attorney General, who 341 00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 1: is really running the Department of Justice. And this is 342 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:48,440 Speaker 1: a guy who is doing nothing but obstructing the congressional 343 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 1: investigations and defining congressional lawful subpoenas. So with those two 344 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 1: guys at the top, nothing's going to happen. Let's go 345 00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:04,920 Speaker 1: to our next caller. Susie joins this from San Antonio, Texas. Susy, Hey, 346 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 1: thank you so much for taking my call. Greg Um. 347 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 1: I appreciate all that you do and the work that 348 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:14,280 Speaker 1: you do. You you certainly are a warrior. My question 349 00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:18,080 Speaker 1: is this, I uh, I did seventeen years as a 350 00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 1: federal agent, and it just stuns me that somebody like 351 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:26,560 Speaker 1: call me, can stand up and list off this tick off, 352 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 1: this list of all the laws that she broke and 353 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:32,760 Speaker 1: all the things that she did, but no reasonable prosecutor 354 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:35,919 Speaker 1: would take her to take this case. How does that 355 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,400 Speaker 1: just stop it? How does James call me? Because then 356 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:42,680 Speaker 1: even trade Gaudy says, well, you know, um, no reasonable 357 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:46,240 Speaker 1: prosecutor will take this case. Why oh that you know 358 00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:49,480 Speaker 1: that was just a lie? And Comey thought if I 359 00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:52,359 Speaker 1: say it, you know, people will believe it. Because Comey 360 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:56,280 Speaker 1: believes his own press clippings. Uh. You know, Comy thought 361 00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 1: he was godlike and that he could do anything he 362 00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:03,280 Speaker 1: wanted and that he knew better than the American citizen ry. 363 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:06,000 Speaker 1: And so he didn't want Trump to be president. He 364 00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:08,879 Speaker 1: wanted Hillary be president. So he was going to save 365 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 1: the nation by exonerating Clinton so she could be president 366 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:16,439 Speaker 1: and destroy Donald Trump. That that seems to me to 367 00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 1: be the story of James Comy. And I think he's 368 00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:27,959 Speaker 1: nothing more than an arrogant, pompous, pretentious fraud. And but listen, 369 00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:31,959 Speaker 1: when you're the head of the FBI, uh, you have 370 00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:38,520 Speaker 1: immense power. And he abused that power to clear Clinton 371 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 1: and go after Donald Trump. And I'm so glad you 372 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:47,440 Speaker 1: brought up the fact that, you know Comy's ridiculous deception. 373 00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 1: No reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case. I got 374 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 1: news for him. Prosecutors all over America would have loved 375 00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:00,679 Speaker 1: to have brought that case against Hillary. And it was 376 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:06,160 Speaker 1: a slam dunk. It was right there on her server, 377 00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 1: hundred and ten classified documents. That's a crime, even you know. 378 00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:19,760 Speaker 1: Comy himself said in his nonsensical statement that he originally 379 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:26,919 Speaker 1: wrote the sheer volume of information that was properly classified 380 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 1: as secret at the time it was discussed on emails, 381 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:36,560 Speaker 1: supports an inference that the participants were grossly negligent in 382 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:41,360 Speaker 1: their handling of that information. That's a quote from James Comy. 383 00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 1: But because he wanted to clear Hillary Clinton, he struck 384 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:51,719 Speaker 1: that from his computer statement, and he probably thought nobody 385 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 1: would ever find out. Clinton will become president and it'll 386 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:58,480 Speaker 1: be a great secret. Well guess what, she didn't become 387 00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 1: president and end metadata and computers record everything and maintain everything. 388 00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:12,640 Speaker 1: And that's part of the evidence against Clinton and against 389 00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:16,280 Speaker 1: James Comey. Let's go to our next caller, who is 390 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 1: Ron from Chicago, Illinois. Hi, Iron, Hi, how are you interesting? Programs, 391 00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:26,720 Speaker 1: Thank you very much. Why can't Mueller be fired? He can, 392 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:32,600 Speaker 1: I understand he can. But why isn't he being fired? Well, 393 00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:38,360 Speaker 1: I'll tell you why because two reasons. I think. I 394 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:41,640 Speaker 1: think Donald Trump believes that he'll be cleared in the 395 00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 1: end because he knows he never colluded with Russia. So, 396 00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 1: you know, one can understand why am I going to 397 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 1: fire a guy who, in the end cannot possibly come 398 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:57,200 Speaker 1: up with any incriminating evidence because it doesn't exist. I mean, 399 00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:59,000 Speaker 1: if you talk to Donald Trump, he was like, I 400 00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:04,080 Speaker 1: never talked to anywhere Hillary Clinton was talking with Russians. 401 00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 1: But he'll say, I never talked to any Russians and 402 00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:11,160 Speaker 1: I didn't know if anybody in my campaign was talking 403 00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:14,200 Speaker 1: to Russians. So I didn't colude. Why should I fire 404 00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:17,960 Speaker 1: a guy? Uh? If I'm completely and utterly innocent. On 405 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:21,640 Speaker 1: the other hand, I think that the president realizes that 406 00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:25,760 Speaker 1: Mueller's out to get him. I mean, the day before 407 00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:29,400 Speaker 1: Muller was appointed by Rosenstein's special counsel, Mueller was in 408 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:32,880 Speaker 1: the Oval Office begging for the job to replace James Comey, 409 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 1: is FBI director, to get his old job back, and 410 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:40,200 Speaker 1: Donald Trump didn't want him. There's a conflict of interest 411 00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 1: that demands recusal. You get turned down for a job 412 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:46,920 Speaker 1: by the president, and you take a job the next 413 00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 1: day to investigate the president, the guy who rejected you 414 00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:54,280 Speaker 1: and turned you down for a job. Not to mention 415 00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 1: the fact that Mueller is close friends, allies, former colleagues 416 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 1: with the key witness in the case, James Comey, And 417 00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:07,600 Speaker 1: if you look up a code of professional responsibility, not 418 00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:11,760 Speaker 1: to mention the Department of Justice regulations, it's mandatory. You've 419 00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:17,760 Speaker 1: got to recuse yourself. You can't prosecute a case when 420 00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 1: the key witness has a close relationship to you. That's 421 00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 1: literally word for word, almost word for word, out of 422 00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:28,520 Speaker 1: the regulations. Uh. So Mueller deserves to be fired. But 423 00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:34,400 Speaker 1: I think the president probably correctly realizes that within minutes 424 00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 1: of firing Mueller he'd be accused of being Richard Nixon 425 00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:41,360 Speaker 1: and Watergate all over, and the firing of Archibald Cox, 426 00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:48,600 Speaker 1: which eventually unraveled and led to the uh what were 427 00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:53,120 Speaker 1: articles of impeachment for Nixon and prompted his resignation. So, 428 00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 1: I mean, the political fallout would be severe. So I 429 00:31:56,680 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 1: think that's the reason why this is Greg Jared filling 430 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:03,600 Speaker 1: in for Shawn Hannity on The Sean Hannity Show. We're 431 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:07,560 Speaker 1: taking your calls. We're talking about my book, The Russia Hoax, 432 00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:11,440 Speaker 1: The Illicit Scheme to clare Hillary Clinton and framed Donald Trump. 433 00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:15,760 Speaker 1: It comes out next Tuesday in your local bookstore, but 434 00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 1: you can order it online Barnes and Noble dot com, 435 00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:23,760 Speaker 1: Amazon dot com, or just go to Hannity dot com 436 00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:27,520 Speaker 1: and check out my Twitter handle at Greg jareded.

In just a few minutes, We're gonna be 439 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:37,520 Speaker 1: talking to former U S Attorney and former Independent Council 440 00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:42,120 Speaker 1: Joe Digeneva, one of the finest lawyers in America. I 441 00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:46,520 Speaker 1: interviewed him for my book and he is quoted in 442 00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:49,560 Speaker 1: several places. The book comes out Tuesday, The Russia Hoax 443 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:53,600 Speaker 1: Barnes and Noble. Amazon will be back in a flash 444 00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:58,080 Speaker 1: The Sean Hannity Show. Welcome back to the Sean Hannity 445 00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:03,080 Speaker 1: Show on Greg Jarrett filling in for Sean Hannity. Um, 446 00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:05,800 Speaker 1: we are talking a lot about the book that I wrote, 447 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:09,360 Speaker 1: which comes out on Tuesday, called The Russia Hoax, The 448 00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:13,560 Speaker 1: Illicit Scheme to clear Hillary Clinton and frame Donald Trump. 449 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:17,640 Speaker 1: It can be ordered pre ordered on Amazon or borns 450 00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:20,040 Speaker 1: at Noble dot com, or just go to Hannity dot 451 00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:23,320 Speaker 1: com and there's a link there, and you know, you 452 00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:26,320 Speaker 1: can read what's in it. But frankly, the title tells 453 00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:32,480 Speaker 1: the story, but the dirty, disgusting details are on the inside, 454 00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:37,680 Speaker 1: complete with seven hundred footnotes. So I didn't just make 455 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:42,400 Speaker 1: it up like Michael Wolfe. So um. One of the 456 00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:48,120 Speaker 1: people who was actually quite helpful in UH in my 457 00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:53,920 Speaker 1: writing the book was, Um, Joe did Jennifer because he 458 00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:58,600 Speaker 1: granted me an interview, and so uh, several of his 459 00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:03,400 Speaker 1: comments about the Russia hoax are contained within the book. Now, 460 00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:06,360 Speaker 1: Joe Digeneva is one of the finest lawyers in all 461 00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:10,279 Speaker 1: of America, former U S Attorney. He was also and 462 00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:14,560 Speaker 1: this is what's important, he was also an independent Council, 463 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:18,560 Speaker 1: which is the equivalent these days of the Special Council 464 00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:22,400 Speaker 1: because the Independent Council law was not renewed by Congress, 465 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 1: and now Robert Muller under a Special Council regulation, UH 466 00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:33,440 Speaker 1: is playing that role, though there are very meaningful differences. 467 00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:35,919 Speaker 1: But let me get Joe on the phone. Now, Joe, 468 00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:39,560 Speaker 1: thank you so much for joining us today and and 469 00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 1: once again thank you for agreeing to be interviewed for 470 00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:45,880 Speaker 1: the book, because I think your comments were an important 471 00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:49,960 Speaker 1: contribution to the book. Well, Greig, thank you very much. 472 00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:52,239 Speaker 1: And and first of all, let me congratulate you on 473 00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:54,359 Speaker 1: the publication of the book. As you know, I've read 474 00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:59,360 Speaker 1: most of it pre publication. Uh it's a fantastic read. 475 00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:03,480 Speaker 1: May I tell your your listeners and Sean's listeners, Uh, 476 00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:05,640 Speaker 1: please get it you you just won't be able to 477 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:08,919 Speaker 1: put it down. Well, that's very very kind of you, 478 00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:13,800 Speaker 1: and I appreciate it immensely. Um, before we talk about 479 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:16,840 Speaker 1: some of the things that are in the book, I 480 00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:19,400 Speaker 1: do want to ask you about some of the latest 481 00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:23,200 Speaker 1: information that we're now getting. There's a growing number of 482 00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:30,720 Speaker 1: Democrats who were asking that the interpreter during the Trump 483 00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 1: Putin meeting. Her name is Marina Gross. They are demanding 484 00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:40,760 Speaker 1: that she behauled before co Congressional Committee to reveal what 485 00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:44,600 Speaker 1: was discussed and what she heard during this one on 486 00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:49,280 Speaker 1: one meeting between two world leaders. And they're also demanding 487 00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:52,360 Speaker 1: that she turned over to Congress any notes that she 488 00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 1: took during the Monday to our meeting in Helsinki. Again 489 00:35:57,200 --> 00:36:01,200 Speaker 1: between Trump and putin your thoughts. Well, first of all, 490 00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:04,320 Speaker 1: of the Democrats do not control either House of Congress, 491 00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:07,960 Speaker 1: so their request is a legal mulity. It is nothing 492 00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:09,960 Speaker 1: more than a request that does not have the force 493 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:12,880 Speaker 1: of law. Um. She does not have to respond. The 494 00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:15,520 Speaker 1: President does not have to respond. No one has to respond. 495 00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:20,359 Speaker 1: That said, Um. One thing is also clear that if 496 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:23,960 Speaker 1: the president needed to, he could invoke executive privilege. Let's say, 497 00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:27,200 Speaker 1: if the Democrats controlled one of both houses of Congress. 498 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:29,680 Speaker 1: But an interpreter is never going to be called to testify. 499 00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:33,680 Speaker 1: I can assure you that the Democrats ultimately, uh no, 500 00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:35,600 Speaker 1: they're never going to get her, and so this is 501 00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:37,880 Speaker 1: just a game because if they thought they would get her, 502 00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:41,480 Speaker 1: it is quite conceivable that Mr Schumer, no matter how 503 00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:43,920 Speaker 1: obnoxious he is from time to time, would realize that 504 00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:46,640 Speaker 1: a future Democratic president would not want this to happen, 505 00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:51,240 Speaker 1: and so it wouldn't happen. But this is grandstanding Allah, 506 00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:53,719 Speaker 1: all of the Democrats, this is what they do. They've 507 00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:59,760 Speaker 1: become a very very bad joke. Well, Um, the liberal 508 00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:04,640 Speaker 1: media and Democrats, um had you know, there was hair 509 00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:10,120 Speaker 1: on fire hysteria after the you know, the Putin Trump 510 00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:14,520 Speaker 1: meeting in the news conference accusing Trump of being soft 511 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:20,000 Speaker 1: on Russia and in Putin's pocket. You know, frankly, you know, Jill, 512 00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:24,360 Speaker 1: that is belied by the facts. This president increased sanctions 513 00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:29,640 Speaker 1: against Russia fivefold when after their energy sector, the defense industry, 514 00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:33,640 Speaker 1: Putin's inner circle, and that most recent set of sanctions 515 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:37,080 Speaker 1: three months ago in April that the president's side. He 516 00:37:37,160 --> 00:37:40,600 Speaker 1: issued a statement saying this is in direct punishment for 517 00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:45,200 Speaker 1: Russia's meddling in the election. You know, as I see 518 00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:49,440 Speaker 1: a Trump has taken more punitive action against Russia in 519 00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:53,400 Speaker 1: eighteen months than Obama did in eight years. What do 520 00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:55,960 Speaker 1: you think. I don't think there's any doubt that the 521 00:37:56,000 --> 00:38:01,440 Speaker 1: President's conduct, whether it's giving defensive assole systems to Eastern 522 00:38:01,840 --> 00:38:04,720 Speaker 1: European countries which are now part of the Western Bloc, 523 00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:09,400 Speaker 1: whether it's giving arms to Ukraine, whatever it may be, 524 00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:14,359 Speaker 1: the sanctions expelling sixty two Russian quote unquote diplomats who 525 00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:18,799 Speaker 1: were intelligence people as a result of the poisoning of 526 00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:23,240 Speaker 1: the former Russian spy in London. The President has been fantastic. 527 00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:26,480 Speaker 1: His messaging has been a little off from time to time, 528 00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:32,120 Speaker 1: but in terms of the real activities to punish the Russians. 529 00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:37,359 Speaker 1: It is absolutely true that compared to uh the abysmal 530 00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:41,800 Speaker 1: record of President Obama, he has been a superb defender 531 00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:46,239 Speaker 1: of American interests. And I must say, over the last 532 00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:50,760 Speaker 1: few days, I've always it's been fairly obvious that John Brennan, 533 00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:53,800 Speaker 1: the former CIA director under Obama, is a very sick, 534 00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:59,080 Speaker 1: sick man, a man so partisan, so viciously corrupted by 535 00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:02,440 Speaker 1: his bias is that he looks like a madman when 536 00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:05,840 Speaker 1: he's on television, his fiery face. He can barely stay 537 00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:08,920 Speaker 1: within his skin. But the person who disappointed me even 538 00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:12,200 Speaker 1: more the other day by suggesting that the Russians might 539 00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:16,480 Speaker 1: have something on the president was Lehan Panetta. You know, 540 00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:21,520 Speaker 1: there's a guy who, while Secretary of Defense during Benghazi, 541 00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:26,960 Speaker 1: did absolutely nothing to save an American ambassador and three 542 00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:32,000 Speaker 1: other brave Americans. Um. Leon Panetta should be ashamed of himself. 543 00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:37,560 Speaker 1: And I can't imagine what possessed him to say something 544 00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:41,880 Speaker 1: as stupid and as uninformed as he did about the 545 00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:45,040 Speaker 1: current president of the United States. But this is where 546 00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:49,400 Speaker 1: the Democrats are. They're cowardly. Panetta, by the way, is 547 00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:52,560 Speaker 1: one of those guys who, for all of his experience 548 00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:55,880 Speaker 1: as a member of Congress, Secretary of Defense. He I directed, 549 00:39:56,200 --> 00:40:00,359 Speaker 1: he is really a weak, weak person. It's fascinating how 550 00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:04,279 Speaker 1: he counted out to Hillary Clinton, quite remarkable. You know, 551 00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:08,440 Speaker 1: a couple of hours after John Brennan, former CIA director, 552 00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:14,279 Speaker 1: a Hillary Clinton Lackey and uh, you know, a hyperpartisan uh, 553 00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:22,560 Speaker 1: tweeted out that the President committed treason. I tweeted a response, 554 00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:26,000 Speaker 1: and my response was, every time that John Brennan opens 555 00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:31,360 Speaker 1: his mouth or tweets something, he removes all doubt about 556 00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:35,280 Speaker 1: his ignorance. And the reason I said that is because 557 00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:38,400 Speaker 1: the treason laws, as you well know, are very specific 558 00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:41,640 Speaker 1: in the United States, not only in Article three of 559 00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:45,960 Speaker 1: the Constitution, but under the Statute of Treason you have 560 00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:50,400 Speaker 1: to be at war with another country for treason to apply. 561 00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:54,480 Speaker 1: And the most the most obvious example was Ethel and 562 00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:58,359 Speaker 1: Julius Rosenberg in the nineties and fifties. They were never 563 00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:02,800 Speaker 1: charged with trees and even though they gave nuclear secrets 564 00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:05,640 Speaker 1: to the Soviets, they were charged and convicted and put 565 00:41:05,680 --> 00:41:12,319 Speaker 1: to death for espionage. But but you know, Brennan and uh, 566 00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:14,600 Speaker 1: you know, all of the others who hauled off and 567 00:41:14,640 --> 00:41:21,319 Speaker 1: said this is treason are absolutely ignorant. People that they are. 568 00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:23,760 Speaker 1: And and the other thing that's very clear about Brennan 569 00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:27,920 Speaker 1: when you watch him, Uh, it's very Shakespearean in the 570 00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:31,000 Speaker 1: sense that he does protest too much because he is 571 00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:35,239 Speaker 1: well aware of the central role that he played in 572 00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:41,080 Speaker 1: creating the hoax about Russian collusion, in allowing the improper 573 00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:46,239 Speaker 1: UH searching of FISA information by the n s A. 574 00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:49,880 Speaker 1: He is at the core of spreading the false dossier 575 00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:53,360 Speaker 1: around the government in an effort to get it published. 576 00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:57,200 Speaker 1: He is at the core of the unmasking process with 577 00:41:57,239 --> 00:42:00,640 Speaker 1: Susan Rice and others. He's at the core of the 578 00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:04,280 Speaker 1: leaking of all of that information in violation of federal 579 00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:08,719 Speaker 1: law to the American media. John Brennan is among that 580 00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:12,879 Speaker 1: homeless Clapper is of course another one. But he's so 581 00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:17,120 Speaker 1: stupid and and inarticulate that he probably has a defense 582 00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:20,319 Speaker 1: of being just not quite dumb enough to know how 583 00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:23,799 Speaker 1: to properly lie. But but, but Brennan is at the 584 00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:29,279 Speaker 1: center of the entire conspiracy against Trump and and the 585 00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:32,799 Speaker 1: the the thing about it that makes him so obviously 586 00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:36,640 Speaker 1: a part of the conspiracy is the the vitriol that 587 00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:40,160 Speaker 1: he has cloaked himself in to go after a sitting 588 00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:43,799 Speaker 1: president and the damage that he has done to the 589 00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:47,000 Speaker 1: c I a personnel who work out there today. They 590 00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:50,439 Speaker 1: are I speak to people at the agency all the time. 591 00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:54,480 Speaker 1: They are embarrassed by John Brennan. They are mortally, mortally 592 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:57,759 Speaker 1: embarrassed by him. Well, he's a he's a mean and 593 00:42:57,800 --> 00:43:01,440 Speaker 1: malevolent person. And and don't just take my word for it. 594 00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:06,880 Speaker 1: That's what Samantha Power, the Obama United Nations Ambassador said, 595 00:43:07,520 --> 00:43:10,799 Speaker 1: rather cryptically when and I'll quote her, not a good 596 00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:13,920 Speaker 1: idea to piss off John Brennan. That's in my book. 597 00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:16,719 Speaker 1: And in fact, as you know, because you've read much 598 00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:19,480 Speaker 1: of the book, Joe uh my book entitle of the 599 00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:23,520 Speaker 1: Russia Hoax, Chapter six, the title of that chapter is 600 00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:27,799 Speaker 1: the fabricated dossier used against Trump. And I opened it 601 00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:34,560 Speaker 1: with salvos against John Brennan as the instigator of the 602 00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:40,680 Speaker 1: dirty dossier. And in fact, I quote House Intelligence senior 603 00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:45,280 Speaker 1: aid House Intelligence Committee senior aide who said, quote John 604 00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:49,560 Speaker 1: Brennan did more than anyone to promulgate the dirty dossier. 605 00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:56,880 Speaker 1: He politicized and effectively weaponized what was false intelligence against Trump. 606 00:43:57,280 --> 00:44:00,040 Speaker 1: And then I lay out all the facts and the 607 00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:03,920 Speaker 1: evidence that prove it. Yes, and I couldn't agree with 608 00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:06,600 Speaker 1: you more. I think that that particular chapter is one 609 00:44:06,600 --> 00:44:09,319 Speaker 1: of the most sterling parts of the book, and I 610 00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:15,720 Speaker 1: heartily commended to people who want to understand how UH, 611 00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:20,480 Speaker 1: an outgoing administration during a transition period between an election 612 00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:26,439 Speaker 1: and an inauguration could engage in such perfidy during that 613 00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:29,840 Speaker 1: time in an effort to undermine a president, a president 614 00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:32,440 Speaker 1: duly elected by the people of the United States. I 615 00:44:32,480 --> 00:44:35,040 Speaker 1: don't you know. I think the American people have figured 616 00:44:35,080 --> 00:44:38,800 Speaker 1: out without any question that the Russian collusion thing is 617 00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:42,960 Speaker 1: idiotic and a hoax, except the most part of Democrats, 618 00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:45,840 Speaker 1: who will believe anything because they hate the president. But 619 00:44:45,960 --> 00:44:50,400 Speaker 1: what what people are not aware of is how criminal, 620 00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:55,000 Speaker 1: and I underscore criminal the activity was that led to 621 00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:57,480 Speaker 1: the to the attempt to frame Donald Trump. They will 622 00:44:57,520 --> 00:44:59,759 Speaker 1: not succeed, the president will not be framed, but they 623 00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:02,640 Speaker 1: have done a terrible thing to the American people into 624 00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:06,120 Speaker 1: a new president. They've stolen eighteen months of his presidency 625 00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:09,839 Speaker 1: to deal with this nonsense. And at the core of 626 00:45:09,880 --> 00:45:13,279 Speaker 1: that were the people, the senior people in intelligence of 627 00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:18,000 Speaker 1: the Obama administration, who I believe engaged in completely criminal 628 00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:21,920 Speaker 1: activity that should be investigated I'm I am regretted. I 629 00:45:22,000 --> 00:45:27,399 Speaker 1: regret to say that Jeff Sessions as Attorney General will 630 00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:31,480 Speaker 1: never permit the type of in depth criminal investigation that 631 00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:35,680 Speaker 1: needs to I agree with the Joe Geneva. You're gonna 632 00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:38,840 Speaker 1: stick around for just a moment because we're gonna squeeze 633 00:45:38,880 --> 00:45:41,400 Speaker 1: in a quick break.

I've been talking with Jojo Jeneva, 643 00:46:14,080 --> 00:46:18,080 Speaker 1: terrific lawyer in Washington, d C. Former U S Attorney, 644 00:46:18,080 --> 00:46:21,400 Speaker 1: former Independent Council. He was interviewed for my book. He 645 00:46:21,440 --> 00:46:23,920 Speaker 1: has quoted in it. The name of the book is 646 00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:26,840 Speaker 1: The Russia Hoax, The illicit scheme to clear Hillary Clinton. 647 00:46:26,920 --> 00:46:31,680 Speaker 1: And framed Donald Trump, available in bookstores beginning on Tuesday, 648 00:46:31,719 --> 00:46:34,560 Speaker 1: or you can order it Barnes and Noble dot com. 649 00:46:34,600 --> 00:46:38,560 Speaker 1: But Joe, one of the arguments I make, uh, this 650 00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:41,000 Speaker 1: is in I believe chapter six, is that you know, 651 00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:44,480 Speaker 1: collusion is not a crime in a political campaign. Collusions 652 00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:48,600 Speaker 1: crime and anti trust law and so forth. Um, Now, 653 00:46:48,719 --> 00:46:53,320 Speaker 1: if you pay a foreign national for information in a 654 00:46:53,360 --> 00:46:57,479 Speaker 1: political campaign, that would be a crime. And isn't that 655 00:46:58,120 --> 00:47:03,200 Speaker 1: what Hillary Clinton and Democrats did? Well, Gregg, the answer 656 00:47:03,239 --> 00:47:05,799 Speaker 1: to that is, of course yes, what they did was 657 00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:09,360 Speaker 1: definitely pay a foreign national for information in the campaign. 658 00:47:09,880 --> 00:47:11,920 Speaker 1: And the question is whether or not that type of 659 00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:16,600 Speaker 1: activity uh is covered by federal criminal one should be investigated. 660 00:47:16,600 --> 00:47:19,719 Speaker 1: But here's here's the problem with all of this, and 661 00:47:19,840 --> 00:47:23,839 Speaker 1: the problem with the Muller investigation, which was created by 662 00:47:23,960 --> 00:47:28,360 Speaker 1: Rod Rosenstein because he was so furious about the fact 663 00:47:28,600 --> 00:47:30,719 Speaker 1: that he thought the President of the United States had 664 00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:33,880 Speaker 1: embarrassed him by telling Lester Holt that it would have 665 00:47:33,920 --> 00:47:38,600 Speaker 1: fired James Comy no matter what, no matter what Rosenstein 666 00:47:38,640 --> 00:47:43,160 Speaker 1: had recommended. Rosenstein is just a coward. And the the 667 00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:47,359 Speaker 1: problem that exists now is if it is true that 668 00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:51,719 Speaker 1: Bob Mullard has immunized Tony Podesta as part of the 669 00:47:51,760 --> 00:47:55,960 Speaker 1: prosecution of Paul Manafort. We will have reached the point 670 00:47:56,080 --> 00:48:04,960 Speaker 1: in this ridiculous Muller investigation of complete perfidy, complete untrustworthiness. 671 00:48:05,560 --> 00:48:07,560 Speaker 1: Can just just put your but just put your head 672 00:48:07,600 --> 00:48:09,959 Speaker 1: on straight for a second and think about what that means. 673 00:48:10,520 --> 00:48:14,000 Speaker 1: That means that every Democrat who has been investigated by 674 00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:19,160 Speaker 1: the Comy Justice Department, Comy FBI has gotten either immunity 675 00:48:19,280 --> 00:48:22,839 Speaker 1: or a no prosecution decision. Can in the middle of 676 00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:27,879 Speaker 1: the Maniford case, They're going to immunize Tony Podesta, who 677 00:48:27,920 --> 00:48:32,759 Speaker 1: committed many of the same crimes that that that that 678 00:48:32,920 --> 00:48:35,480 Speaker 1: Manafort is alleged to have done. It is. It is 679 00:48:35,520 --> 00:48:41,680 Speaker 1: so mind boggling and shocking that I'm apoplectic about Joe 680 00:48:41,719 --> 00:48:44,960 Speaker 1: di Jeneva. Many thanks. Let's do it again sometime soon, 681 00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:47,600 Speaker 1: one of the great attorneys in America. Talking about my book, 682 00:48:48,080 --> 00:48:51,600 Speaker 1: The Russia Hoax, which comes out on Tuesday. We'll be 683 00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:55,279 Speaker 1: right back. Welcome back to the Sean Hannity Show. I'm 684 00:48:55,320 --> 00:48:58,239 Speaker 1: Greg Jared filling in for Sean Hannity. We've been talking 685 00:48:58,280 --> 00:49:01,480 Speaker 1: a lot about my book, The Russia Hoax, The illicit 686 00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:04,000 Speaker 1: scheme to clear Hillary Clinton and framed Donald Trump. It 687 00:49:04,120 --> 00:49:08,160 Speaker 1: comes out this coming Tuesday, July, but you can, you know, 688 00:49:08,280 --> 00:49:10,759 Speaker 1: order it ahead of time on Barnes and Noble dot com, 689 00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:14,480 Speaker 1: Amazon dot com, or just go to Hannity dot com. 690 00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:16,920 Speaker 1: But the you know, look, the title tells this story. 691 00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:21,280 Speaker 1: The whole Russia Trump Russia collusion was nothing but a hoax. 692 00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:24,560 Speaker 1: There was never any evidence of it. It was a 693 00:49:24,680 --> 00:49:31,560 Speaker 1: legally unjustified investigation of the president after Comy and Company 694 00:49:31,600 --> 00:49:37,720 Speaker 1: cleared Hillary Clinton purely for political reasons, because she obviously 695 00:49:38,520 --> 00:49:43,520 Speaker 1: violated the criminal statutes and should have been indicted and prosecuted. 696 00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:46,520 Speaker 1: But that, of course is not what the FBI and 697 00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:50,120 Speaker 1: the Department of Justice and the Obama administration wanted, and 698 00:49:50,160 --> 00:49:54,480 Speaker 1: the President himself, in a April two thousand sixteen interview 699 00:49:54,560 --> 00:49:59,120 Speaker 1: on Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace, Um basically directed 700 00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:02,400 Speaker 1: the FBI to clip Hillary Clinton. Uh. He told Chris 701 00:50:02,440 --> 00:50:06,480 Speaker 1: Wallace that she didn't intend to violate the law or 702 00:50:06,560 --> 00:50:13,120 Speaker 1: jeopardize national security, and that she was merely careless. And 703 00:50:13,280 --> 00:50:17,600 Speaker 1: you know, within six weeks they changed Comey's statement from 704 00:50:17,640 --> 00:50:21,080 Speaker 1: gross negligence, which is a clear violation under the Felony 705 00:50:21,200 --> 00:50:26,200 Speaker 1: Statute to Obama's word carelessness. So the president all but 706 00:50:26,320 --> 00:50:31,200 Speaker 1: instructed them. He did it through the media to clear 707 00:50:31,280 --> 00:50:36,920 Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton. Did anybody accuse Barack Obama of obstruction of justice? 708 00:50:36,960 --> 00:50:42,399 Speaker 1: Of course not, but the president exercises his constitutional right 709 00:50:43,120 --> 00:50:49,440 Speaker 1: to fire James Comey in My Lord Its obstruction of justice. 710 00:50:50,160 --> 00:50:53,839 Speaker 1: Joining us now to talk about the book and other things, 711 00:50:53,880 --> 00:51:00,040 Speaker 1: Sarah Carter, Fox News contributor and intrepid investigative reporter and 712 00:51:00,280 --> 00:51:02,399 Speaker 1: one of my favorite people to be on with. And 713 00:51:02,880 --> 00:51:07,520 Speaker 1: David Shown, who is a terrific lawyer of civil liberties attorney. 714 00:51:08,080 --> 00:51:11,080 Speaker 1: Uh and I always learned something when I tune into 715 00:51:11,280 --> 00:51:14,239 Speaker 1: David when he's on or talked to him. So thank 716 00:51:14,280 --> 00:51:16,560 Speaker 1: you both for being with us. And let me ask 717 00:51:16,600 --> 00:51:20,880 Speaker 1: you about the most recent news that came out today. 718 00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:23,960 Speaker 1: This is going to of course change the immediate news 719 00:51:24,000 --> 00:51:30,400 Speaker 1: cycle yet again, that Michael Cohen taped his conversation with 720 00:51:30,520 --> 00:51:35,239 Speaker 1: President Trump regarding a potential future payment to Karen McDougall, 721 00:51:36,120 --> 00:51:40,360 Speaker 1: who is a playboy playmate who allegedly had an affair 722 00:51:40,719 --> 00:51:45,840 Speaker 1: with Trump many years ago. And apparently, you know, she 723 00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:50,000 Speaker 1: wanted to get her greedy hands on a few green backs, 724 00:51:50,040 --> 00:51:52,640 Speaker 1: and there was a discussion that took place. David, since 725 00:51:52,680 --> 00:51:55,080 Speaker 1: you're the lawyer, let me go to you. Is there 726 00:51:55,120 --> 00:52:00,960 Speaker 1: any anything illegal or criminal about paying somebody to go away? 727 00:52:01,960 --> 00:52:04,400 Speaker 1: Absolutely not, And as you well know, Greg, it happens 728 00:52:04,440 --> 00:52:07,080 Speaker 1: every day and settlements across the country and all kinds 729 00:52:07,080 --> 00:52:10,759 Speaker 1: of civil cases. I think the greatest importance this revelation 730 00:52:10,840 --> 00:52:15,000 Speaker 1: has probably gives uh more entertainment value at the checkout 731 00:52:15,040 --> 00:52:17,440 Speaker 1: counter and the grocery store. Now, I sort of put 732 00:52:17,480 --> 00:52:20,880 Speaker 1: it in the Kardashian Paris Hilton category of news. The 733 00:52:20,920 --> 00:52:24,000 Speaker 1: only issue they try to make a potentially one can 734 00:52:24,040 --> 00:52:27,880 Speaker 1: see is that this was somehow a payment to affect 735 00:52:28,040 --> 00:52:31,000 Speaker 1: the election. He was paying hush money or authorizing the 736 00:52:31,000 --> 00:52:33,600 Speaker 1: payment of hush money to the person who had bad 737 00:52:33,640 --> 00:52:37,399 Speaker 1: news it might impact on the election. It's absolute nonsense enough. 738 00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:40,400 Speaker 1: It's not just nonsense. It's offensive to the American voters 739 00:52:40,560 --> 00:52:44,399 Speaker 1: to suggest that the voters in this country based their 740 00:52:45,120 --> 00:52:50,000 Speaker 1: sacred vote for president on either Russian propaganda or a 741 00:52:50,040 --> 00:52:53,279 Speaker 1: calculus as to whether the president for potential president had 742 00:52:53,320 --> 00:52:55,600 Speaker 1: an affair or didn't have an affair. And we know, 743 00:52:55,680 --> 00:52:58,600 Speaker 1: I mean from history, that those facts only go so far. 744 00:52:58,640 --> 00:53:00,680 Speaker 1: We don't have to look any further than President Clinton 745 00:53:00,719 --> 00:53:02,960 Speaker 1: and his popularity when you know that's the proven fact 746 00:53:02,960 --> 00:53:05,280 Speaker 1: about the fear. But it's really offensive to American people, 747 00:53:05,560 --> 00:53:08,680 Speaker 1: and as offensive American people to keep spending money chasing 748 00:53:08,680 --> 00:53:12,240 Speaker 1: these things down. I understand it's a sexy story. Um. 749 00:53:12,280 --> 00:53:14,280 Speaker 1: And by the way, the story itself, of course raises 750 00:53:14,560 --> 00:53:17,160 Speaker 1: so many issues about why it was taped. What that 751 00:53:17,239 --> 00:53:20,120 Speaker 1: does is professional standing, Um, all of these kind of 752 00:53:20,120 --> 00:53:22,279 Speaker 1: who leaked it, what agent seized it. Of course, the 753 00:53:22,360 --> 00:53:26,480 Speaker 1: d o j U regulations prohibit an agent involved an 754 00:53:26,520 --> 00:53:29,920 Speaker 1: investigation from seizing items from a lawyer's office supposed to 755 00:53:29,920 --> 00:53:31,759 Speaker 1: be a tape team going in. So there are all 756 00:53:31,880 --> 00:53:34,120 Speaker 1: kinds of issues. But yeah, anyway, that's a lot of 757 00:53:34,120 --> 00:53:37,160 Speaker 1: it is covered by attorney client privilege. That privilege, by 758 00:53:37,160 --> 00:53:39,400 Speaker 1: the way, is not held by Michael Cohen, but by 759 00:53:39,440 --> 00:53:42,759 Speaker 1: the client, which would have been Donald Trump. Only he 760 00:53:42,800 --> 00:53:46,160 Speaker 1: can waive the privilege. I suspect. I mean, the information 761 00:53:46,160 --> 00:53:51,120 Speaker 1: we're getting is that Cohen's lawyers, coming through files, saw 762 00:53:51,200 --> 00:53:55,000 Speaker 1: this conversation. They alerted the president's legal team and they 763 00:53:55,040 --> 00:53:58,360 Speaker 1: probably said, you know what, there's no they're they're uh, no, 764 00:53:58,520 --> 00:54:01,840 Speaker 1: need to hide it. It'll be leaked by the Department 765 00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:03,959 Speaker 1: of Justice anyway, so we might as well get ahead 766 00:54:03,960 --> 00:54:07,480 Speaker 1: of the story and reported ourselves and and tell the 767 00:54:07,480 --> 00:54:11,200 Speaker 1: truth about it. Sarah Carter, you know, this whole business 768 00:54:11,239 --> 00:54:14,719 Speaker 1: about you know, affairs and payments and so forth, and 769 00:54:14,840 --> 00:54:19,759 Speaker 1: that was largely baked into the media narrative before the 770 00:54:19,800 --> 00:54:24,759 Speaker 1: election anyway, they were. And this is about character assassination, right, 771 00:54:24,880 --> 00:54:29,360 Speaker 1: and disinformation campaigns that we've seen with the Russia alleged 772 00:54:29,480 --> 00:54:33,480 Speaker 1: Russia collusion. Now we have this, this, this this is 773 00:54:33,560 --> 00:54:37,600 Speaker 1: part of a character assassination campaign against President Trump. And 774 00:54:37,640 --> 00:54:40,560 Speaker 1: if we looked through history, as you know David shown 775 00:54:40,680 --> 00:54:43,480 Speaker 1: so rightly put it, we've seen this over and over again. 776 00:54:43,520 --> 00:54:46,600 Speaker 1: I mean, it is a sexy story people wanted out there. 777 00:54:46,640 --> 00:54:49,799 Speaker 1: I think my concern Greg was looking at the fact 778 00:54:49,840 --> 00:54:53,600 Speaker 1: of you know, attorney clients privilege, wondering how many more 779 00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:58,080 Speaker 1: recordings you know, Michael Cohen has or other clients that 780 00:54:58,200 --> 00:55:00,880 Speaker 1: he may have recorded um and also how did it 781 00:55:00,960 --> 00:55:03,719 Speaker 1: leak when you mentioned to the Department of Justice. Of 782 00:55:03,760 --> 00:55:07,040 Speaker 1: course there are guidelines that must be followed, and you think, well, 783 00:55:07,120 --> 00:55:10,040 Speaker 1: then who in the d J had access to this, 784 00:55:10,520 --> 00:55:13,360 Speaker 1: leak to this where their copies made? Could this have 785 00:55:13,400 --> 00:55:16,520 Speaker 1: been a separate copy of the Michael coentide. Could it 786 00:55:16,600 --> 00:55:18,960 Speaker 1: have come from somebody else that would have been interesting 787 00:55:19,000 --> 00:55:21,839 Speaker 1: as well. So there's a lot of questions here, a 788 00:55:21,840 --> 00:55:24,720 Speaker 1: lot of questions that need to be answered, and likely 789 00:55:24,920 --> 00:55:28,280 Speaker 1: more than likely this has nothing. I mean, there's nothing 790 00:55:28,360 --> 00:55:31,560 Speaker 1: criminal here, there's no issues here of that nature. It 791 00:55:31,719 --> 00:55:37,000 Speaker 1: certainly will uh drive home for the mainstream media this 792 00:55:37,239 --> 00:55:41,680 Speaker 1: continues push to go after President Trump, and of course 793 00:55:41,680 --> 00:55:43,480 Speaker 1: people are going to look at it. It's important. I mean, 794 00:55:43,480 --> 00:55:46,799 Speaker 1: it's a story, it's out there. Um. And now it's 795 00:55:46,800 --> 00:55:48,400 Speaker 1: going to be up to the White House and up 796 00:55:48,400 --> 00:55:51,440 Speaker 1: to the administration to decide how they are going to 797 00:55:51,520 --> 00:55:53,960 Speaker 1: handle this and how they're going to move forward with this, 798 00:55:54,480 --> 00:55:56,880 Speaker 1: because it's certainly something that's going to take up a 799 00:55:56,880 --> 00:56:00,879 Speaker 1: lot of air time, you know. Um, And go ahead, David, 800 00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:03,359 Speaker 1: go ahead. I just want to jump in two things. 801 00:56:03,360 --> 00:56:06,480 Speaker 1: And Sarah's absolutely right, She's hit all the issues as always. 802 00:56:06,840 --> 00:56:10,040 Speaker 1: I think I sort of wish that Mr Giuliani would 803 00:56:10,040 --> 00:56:13,319 Speaker 1: stop commenting substantively about this tape or anything else. I'm 804 00:56:13,320 --> 00:56:15,759 Speaker 1: sure he knows what he's doing, etcetera. I don't want 805 00:56:15,760 --> 00:56:18,440 Speaker 1: there to be somebody claiming an issue of waver, etcetera. 806 00:56:18,440 --> 00:56:20,839 Speaker 1: He doesn't speak for the president's pres you said, if 807 00:56:20,840 --> 00:56:23,359 Speaker 1: the president's bably just number one, but number two. As 808 00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:26,120 Speaker 1: you know, Greg and Sarah, in these tape cases, what 809 00:56:26,239 --> 00:56:28,680 Speaker 1: can be the most vitally important evidence, if there is 810 00:56:28,719 --> 00:56:32,120 Speaker 1: any issue at all, is what wasn't taped? What conversations 811 00:56:32,160 --> 00:56:34,800 Speaker 1: went on that weren't tape Because remember, Michael Cohen or 812 00:56:34,800 --> 00:56:37,840 Speaker 1: whoever it is doing the taping, controls what to tape 813 00:56:37,840 --> 00:56:40,040 Speaker 1: and when to tape it and when to turn it off. 814 00:56:40,080 --> 00:56:42,120 Speaker 1: So if the president, for example, said I won't be 815 00:56:42,200 --> 00:56:44,120 Speaker 1: a part of any kind of hush money thing. I 816 00:56:44,160 --> 00:56:46,400 Speaker 1: don't want this to look like it's hush money, and 817 00:56:46,440 --> 00:56:49,160 Speaker 1: that wasn't taped, that's obviously the key bit of evidence. 818 00:56:49,400 --> 00:56:52,600 Speaker 1: And all people hear what thus on the tape. Let 819 00:56:52,600 --> 00:56:55,480 Speaker 1: me turn to another story that's coming out here, Sarah. 820 00:56:55,760 --> 00:57:00,600 Speaker 1: Judicial Watch Today expects the Department of Justice release some 821 00:57:00,680 --> 00:57:05,239 Speaker 1: redacted documents about the infamous FISA warrant to spy on 822 00:57:05,280 --> 00:57:09,840 Speaker 1: the Trump campaign. Uh and and how it was hidden 823 00:57:10,440 --> 00:57:15,880 Speaker 1: in footnotes that the unverified dossier was actually paid for 824 00:57:16,040 --> 00:57:19,120 Speaker 1: by the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee. What 825 00:57:19,160 --> 00:57:22,680 Speaker 1: do you know, Well, it's yeah, this is what they've 826 00:57:22,680 --> 00:57:25,920 Speaker 1: been waiting for Without judicial watch, Gregg, I think that 827 00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:28,480 Speaker 1: a lot of us would be left blinded. I mean, 828 00:57:28,520 --> 00:57:31,360 Speaker 1: they really have had the power to fight back the 829 00:57:31,400 --> 00:57:36,120 Speaker 1: federal government in court. This is the this Foreign Intelligence 830 00:57:36,120 --> 00:57:40,840 Speaker 1: Surveillance Act warrant to spy on Carter Page. The fact 831 00:57:40,880 --> 00:57:43,280 Speaker 1: that they did hide that in the footnote it was 832 00:57:43,520 --> 00:57:47,080 Speaker 1: not overtly obvious to the court, was something that was 833 00:57:47,160 --> 00:57:50,080 Speaker 1: deeply concerning. In fact, they didn't lay out they just 834 00:57:50,120 --> 00:57:53,600 Speaker 1: said opposition. I mean, it was very it was very small. 835 00:57:53,640 --> 00:57:55,600 Speaker 1: It wasn't the footnote. It didn't lay out that it 836 00:57:55,680 --> 00:57:59,280 Speaker 1: was Hillary Clinton, it didn't detail the campaign. So it 837 00:57:59,400 --> 00:58:02,520 Speaker 1: is very court and it's vital. It's vital that those 838 00:58:02,560 --> 00:58:05,240 Speaker 1: documents be released so that the public can see what 839 00:58:05,400 --> 00:58:09,440 Speaker 1: was going on. Secondly, I think it's also vital and 840 00:58:09,720 --> 00:58:14,640 Speaker 1: very important that the nineteen pages of the last vice, 841 00:58:14,720 --> 00:58:17,480 Speaker 1: the warrant that was taken out on Carter Page, that 842 00:58:17,520 --> 00:58:20,000 Speaker 1: would be the one that was signed by Rod Rosenstein, 843 00:58:20,400 --> 00:58:23,240 Speaker 1: that those documents also be turned over to the public. 844 00:58:23,280 --> 00:58:27,520 Speaker 1: Remember their nineteen pages. Now, the House Intelligence Committee, some 845 00:58:27,840 --> 00:58:32,360 Speaker 1: members there have actually viewed these documents. They believe that 846 00:58:32,440 --> 00:58:35,320 Speaker 1: it's important for the public to view these documents. But 847 00:58:35,440 --> 00:58:38,760 Speaker 1: what's happened is the Department of Justice has basically put 848 00:58:38,760 --> 00:58:41,480 Speaker 1: a news around their neck not allowing them to release 849 00:58:41,520 --> 00:58:44,000 Speaker 1: any of these documents. The President would be the only 850 00:58:44,080 --> 00:58:47,360 Speaker 1: person right now that could authorize that release. You know, 851 00:58:47,520 --> 00:58:54,240 Speaker 1: we did get some of the visa documents through the 852 00:58:54,320 --> 00:58:58,920 Speaker 1: release b Congress House Intelligence Committee and some memos from 853 00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:02,120 Speaker 1: the Senate side, and in fact, David in my book 854 00:59:02,160 --> 00:59:06,000 Speaker 1: on page one fifty nine. Uh. My book, by the way, 855 00:59:06,120 --> 00:59:09,480 Speaker 1: is called The Russia Hoax. It's out on Tuesday, or 856 00:59:09,520 --> 00:59:12,560 Speaker 1: you can preorder it on Barnes and Noble and Amazon 857 00:59:12,640 --> 00:59:17,960 Speaker 1: dot com. But on page one nine, I recite verbatim, uh, 858 00:59:18,040 --> 00:59:23,240 Speaker 1: footnote number eight, in which the government, the Department of Justice, 859 00:59:23,280 --> 00:59:29,360 Speaker 1: and the FBI absolutely disguised and buried who paid for 860 00:59:29,520 --> 00:59:33,680 Speaker 1: the anti tromphony dossier. We now know it was Hillary 861 00:59:33,720 --> 00:59:38,880 Speaker 1: Clinton's campaign and the Democrats, And so I recite that 862 00:59:39,120 --> 00:59:43,000 Speaker 1: entire footnote on page one nine. And not long ago, 863 00:59:43,080 --> 00:59:45,040 Speaker 1: my wife read the book for the first time and 864 00:59:45,120 --> 00:59:47,880 Speaker 1: she got to that page and she read that footnote 865 00:59:48,280 --> 00:59:50,560 Speaker 1: and she turned to me. We're on a plane, and 866 00:59:50,640 --> 00:59:54,439 Speaker 1: she said, are you kidding me? No one in their 867 00:59:54,520 --> 01:00:00,240 Speaker 1: right mind could discern from that footnote that at the 868 01:00:00,360 --> 01:00:04,040 Speaker 1: sourcing for the dossier came from the Clinton campaign and Democrats. 869 01:00:04,480 --> 01:00:07,520 Speaker 1: And it's true, isn't it, David? Yes, it is. And 870 01:00:07,600 --> 01:00:10,400 Speaker 1: anyone in the right mind better read your book from 871 01:00:10,400 --> 01:00:13,040 Speaker 1: cover to cover and not just that page if they 872 01:00:13,080 --> 01:00:16,320 Speaker 1: honestly want to know what happened here, because you folks 873 01:00:16,320 --> 01:00:19,040 Speaker 1: have been reporting on this stuff in detail that nobody 874 01:00:19,040 --> 01:00:21,680 Speaker 1: else has reported on. And if you're interested in the facts, 875 01:00:21,880 --> 01:00:26,120 Speaker 1: read the book and get effects and listen in every day. Um, listen, 876 01:00:26,280 --> 01:00:29,400 Speaker 1: you know, back to the documents. Remember, as you reported 877 01:00:29,400 --> 01:00:34,080 Speaker 1: on this show. Uh, the FISA Court presiding judge herself 878 01:00:34,200 --> 01:00:37,360 Speaker 1: said in alan to Congress, there is no bar to 879 01:00:37,400 --> 01:00:41,160 Speaker 1: the Department of Justice turning over these application documents. We 880 01:00:41,240 --> 01:00:43,560 Speaker 1: suggest you go to the Department of Justice and get 881 01:00:43,560 --> 01:00:48,400 Speaker 1: it from them, and of the the American people deserve it. Yes, absolutely, Um, 882 01:00:48,440 --> 01:00:52,200 Speaker 1: all right, we're with Sarah Carter, the terrific Fox News contributor, 883 01:00:52,240 --> 01:00:55,800 Speaker 1: investigative reporter.

Final thoughts now with Sarah Carter and David Showing. 901 01:01:57,320 --> 01:02:01,480 Speaker 1: Sarah Well, I we've got to keep our eyes on 902 01:02:01,520 --> 01:02:04,600 Speaker 1: the price. I'm very excited about your book, Greg, I 903 01:02:04,680 --> 01:02:07,920 Speaker 1: can't wait to read through the whole thing. I'm I'm 904 01:02:08,000 --> 01:02:10,600 Speaker 1: waiting for a two time to my home. But as 905 01:02:10,640 --> 01:02:13,120 Speaker 1: part of this investigation is considered, I think the most 906 01:02:13,160 --> 01:02:15,880 Speaker 1: important thing we need to be looking for is if 907 01:02:15,920 --> 01:02:19,400 Speaker 1: and when Congress moves forward with this investigation, will those 908 01:02:19,440 --> 01:02:23,200 Speaker 1: documents be exposed, will we see what actually took place? 909 01:02:23,400 --> 01:02:27,040 Speaker 1: And I think more importantly, will the president decide eventually 910 01:02:27,120 --> 01:02:29,640 Speaker 1: to release those documents? Can be classify some of the 911 01:02:29,680 --> 01:02:32,960 Speaker 1: documents that Congress has been requesting so that the public 912 01:02:33,000 --> 01:02:35,680 Speaker 1: can know the truth.

Look. 916 01:02:46,760 --> 01:02:50,400 Speaker 1: My final thoughts are, let's not let's this coin sillationous 917 01:02:50,560 --> 01:02:56,400 Speaker 1: incident and uh Helsinki derail the focus from Stroke and 918 01:02:56,560 --> 01:03:01,280 Speaker 1: Page and Mueller st two of the larger just disgraces 919 01:03:01,280 --> 01:03:04,640 Speaker 1: our government has had in many recent years. Maybe an 920 01:03:04,640 --> 01:03:08,280 Speaker 1: equal disgrace to the performance of the Democrats on both committees. 921 01:03:08,400 --> 01:03:10,920 Speaker 1: Who should have been outraged, who should have not taken 922 01:03:10,920 --> 01:03:14,720 Speaker 1: the position The end justifies the means. But who's Jackson, 923 01:03:14,800 --> 01:03:17,680 Speaker 1: Lee and Nadler speak out of government misconduct, but not 924 01:03:17,720 --> 01:03:20,600 Speaker 1: when President Trump is the victim of it. Shameful them. 925 01:03:20,680 --> 01:03:23,440 Speaker 1: Let's get back to focusing on what damage was done 926 01:03:23,600 --> 01:03:27,880 Speaker 1: by this horrible misconduct and what damage is still being done.

Is one of the best members of Congress. Uh, 956 01:05:32,120 --> 01:05:35,840 Speaker 1: he's a good editorial candidate. In Florida Freedom Caucus Member 957 01:05:35,880 --> 01:05:41,400 Speaker 1: Congressman Ronds Santis of Florida joins us in Congressman, thanks 958 01:05:41,400 --> 01:05:45,000 Speaker 1: for being with us today, Thanks for having me, and 959 01:05:45,040 --> 01:05:47,200 Speaker 1: congrats on the book. I know it'll do very well 960 01:05:47,240 --> 01:05:50,440 Speaker 1: down here. Well, I sent you one, and uh, I 961 01:05:50,480 --> 01:05:53,360 Speaker 1: think you will get it either today or tomorrow or 962 01:05:53,840 --> 01:05:58,120 Speaker 1: you know, maybe Monday, and I hope you'll read it. Um. 963 01:05:58,160 --> 01:06:02,720 Speaker 1: There is a lot in there about not just how 964 01:06:02,840 --> 01:06:07,240 Speaker 1: James Comey and company wrongfully and I think illegally cleared 965 01:06:07,320 --> 01:06:13,360 Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton. But then how they conjured a case against 966 01:06:13,400 --> 01:06:19,520 Speaker 1: Donald Trump for Trump Russian collusion without any evidence, without 967 01:06:19,600 --> 01:06:23,720 Speaker 1: any facts, in violation of what's called the diogue, which 968 01:06:23,800 --> 01:06:29,080 Speaker 1: is basically the handbook that guides the conduct of the FBI, 969 01:06:29,240 --> 01:06:34,400 Speaker 1: not to mention the Department of Justice regulations that guide 970 01:06:34,400 --> 01:06:37,440 Speaker 1: them as well. There was never any evidence to justify 971 01:06:37,480 --> 01:06:42,000 Speaker 1: a criminal investigation. There was never any intelligence, as Devon 972 01:06:42,040 --> 01:06:45,800 Speaker 1: Noons of the House Intelligence Committee found to justify a 973 01:06:45,960 --> 01:06:52,520 Speaker 1: counter intelligence probe. And nevertheless, Comey and others launched this 974 01:06:52,720 --> 01:06:58,680 Speaker 1: dilating investigation of the president, I believe in order to uh, 975 01:06:58,880 --> 01:07:01,120 Speaker 1: first of all, defeat him as a candidate, and when 976 01:07:01,120 --> 01:07:05,680 Speaker 1: that failed to destroy him as president of the United States, 977 01:07:05,720 --> 01:07:11,600 Speaker 1: How concerned are you about the corrupt behavior of top 978 01:07:11,680 --> 01:07:16,040 Speaker 1: officials of the FBI and the Department of Justice. Well, 979 01:07:16,040 --> 01:07:19,360 Speaker 1: just think about the timeline here. Uh, Donald Trump wins 980 01:07:19,360 --> 01:07:23,560 Speaker 1: the Indiana primary in the spring of what does Peter 981 01:07:23,680 --> 01:07:27,400 Speaker 1: Strap text to his lover Lisa Page. He says, now 982 01:07:27,760 --> 01:07:32,200 Speaker 1: the pressure really builds for us to finish midyear exam, 983 01:07:32,280 --> 01:07:35,840 Speaker 1: which was the Clinton investigation. Why would Trump's victory build 984 01:07:35,880 --> 01:07:38,240 Speaker 1: pressure to finish that. I mean, if if you were 985 01:07:38,600 --> 01:07:40,480 Speaker 1: if she was guilty, and then you would need to 986 01:07:40,520 --> 01:07:44,560 Speaker 1: take that. But he basically was instrumental in helping bring 987 01:07:44,600 --> 01:07:48,040 Speaker 1: that to a conclusion where Hillary face no charges. He 988 01:07:48,200 --> 01:07:52,920 Speaker 1: was edited the COMY statement months before they interviewed Hillary, 989 01:07:53,000 --> 01:07:55,680 Speaker 1: so he was involved in that whole show. Lisa Page 990 01:07:55,760 --> 01:07:58,480 Speaker 1: is obviously texting him saying, Hey, don't go in there 991 01:07:58,480 --> 01:08:00,840 Speaker 1: with Hillary with guns blaze. She's going to be the 992 01:08:00,880 --> 01:08:04,439 Speaker 1: next president. Remember, So at every step in that investigation 993 01:08:04,520 --> 01:08:07,120 Speaker 1: they bent over backwards not to make a case against there. 994 01:08:07,320 --> 01:08:10,520 Speaker 1: Then what happened They Comy does the press conference, the 995 01:08:10,560 --> 01:08:13,320 Speaker 1: infamous press conference. By the end of that same month, 996 01:08:13,320 --> 01:08:17,439 Speaker 1: in July, Peter Struck is the one opening up what 997 01:08:17,880 --> 01:08:22,679 Speaker 1: was called crossfire Hurricane, the Trump Russia collusion case, based 998 01:08:22,680 --> 01:08:26,160 Speaker 1: on what, as you said, Greg, no foreign intelligence and 999 01:08:26,200 --> 01:08:28,840 Speaker 1: they've not been willing to give us the documents to 1000 01:08:29,000 --> 01:08:31,720 Speaker 1: substantiate why they did it. I think the reason they 1001 01:08:31,720 --> 01:08:35,760 Speaker 1: did it was because of Papadopoulos making this comment that 1002 01:08:36,080 --> 01:08:40,200 Speaker 1: that the Russian ted dirt on Hillary. Alexander Downer provided 1003 01:08:40,240 --> 01:08:42,920 Speaker 1: that info to the Obama State Department, and I think 1004 01:08:42,960 --> 01:08:46,800 Speaker 1: the information came from State Department. Even Alexander Downer, though 1005 01:08:46,840 --> 01:08:50,679 Speaker 1: says he never mentioned anything about email. So Struck's view, 1006 01:08:50,720 --> 01:08:53,960 Speaker 1: I think is, hey, we heard that Trump's campaign man 1007 01:08:54,160 --> 01:08:58,439 Speaker 1: inside knowledge about hacking Hillary's emails. Therefore we opened this 1008 01:08:58,840 --> 01:09:01,320 Speaker 1: and that's not true. There was no facts to do it. 1009 01:09:01,640 --> 01:09:03,679 Speaker 1: So what does he do after he opens the case. 1010 01:09:03,840 --> 01:09:07,519 Speaker 1: Eight days later, he's texting Lisa Page saying, no, Trump 1011 01:09:07,520 --> 01:09:11,080 Speaker 1: won't be president because we will stop it. We'll stop 1012 01:09:11,120 --> 01:09:13,800 Speaker 1: it at the FBI, And of course we know. A 1013 01:09:13,880 --> 01:09:17,479 Speaker 1: week after that was the infamous insurance Policy tech where 1014 01:09:17,479 --> 01:09:19,880 Speaker 1: he said that we can't take the risk of a 1015 01:09:19,920 --> 01:09:23,160 Speaker 1: Trump presidency. And the thing that I think was interesting 1016 01:09:23,439 --> 01:09:25,800 Speaker 1: and we got this when we had Struck come in, 1017 01:09:26,320 --> 01:09:28,880 Speaker 1: is you know, when Mueller was appointed, he texted Lisa 1018 01:09:28,920 --> 01:09:32,639 Speaker 1: Paid saying he was really concerned that there was no 1019 01:09:32,800 --> 01:09:35,880 Speaker 1: there there in the investigation. And you think you're accusing 1020 01:09:35,880 --> 01:09:38,400 Speaker 1: the guy of colluding with a foreign power, and you're 1021 01:09:38,479 --> 01:09:41,360 Speaker 1: concerned there's no there there, you should be happy there's 1022 01:09:41,360 --> 01:09:44,040 Speaker 1: no there there. He wanted, they wanted to go after 1023 01:09:44,120 --> 01:09:46,559 Speaker 1: him from day one, and that's what they did. And 1024 01:09:46,600 --> 01:09:50,280 Speaker 1: I think it was an abuse of the counterintelligence powers 1025 01:09:50,280 --> 01:09:52,600 Speaker 1: of the federal government. And I think that that's going 1026 01:09:52,640 --> 01:09:54,800 Speaker 1: to cause Congress to have to go back and look 1027 01:09:54,840 --> 01:09:57,599 Speaker 1: at how some of this is handled against people who 1028 01:09:57,640 --> 01:10:02,160 Speaker 1: are US citizens domestically. You know. Peter Struck when he testified, 1029 01:10:02,600 --> 01:10:07,800 Speaker 1: UM said, well, those text messages didn't really mean what 1030 01:10:07,840 --> 01:10:12,800 Speaker 1: they say. We're getting some reporting now from fairly reliable 1031 01:10:12,880 --> 01:10:16,640 Speaker 1: sources that Lisa Page and here behind closed doors deposition. 1032 01:10:17,520 --> 01:10:22,000 Speaker 1: Uh said, no, some of those messages meant exactly what 1033 01:10:22,120 --> 01:10:25,559 Speaker 1: they said. What do you think, Yeah, No, I think 1034 01:10:25,600 --> 01:10:28,479 Speaker 1: I think Lisa Page was much more honest about it. 1035 01:10:28,800 --> 01:10:32,080 Speaker 1: And here's the thing with Struck. He gave the same 1036 01:10:32,160 --> 01:10:35,680 Speaker 1: explanations to the i G that he gave to Congress publicly, 1037 01:10:36,040 --> 01:10:39,879 Speaker 1: and the i G said his explanations weren't credible. David Horowitz, 1038 01:10:39,880 --> 01:10:43,519 Speaker 1: who's not a not a Republican, Michael Horritz, Sorry, he's 1039 01:10:43,560 --> 01:10:46,599 Speaker 1: not a Republican, and uh, they didn't find it credible. 1040 01:10:46,720 --> 01:10:49,360 Speaker 1: Americans didn't find it credible. I mean, think about it. Greg, 1041 01:10:49,840 --> 01:10:53,720 Speaker 1: She's saying Trump can't be president, right right right? He responds, no, no, 1042 01:10:53,880 --> 01:10:58,160 Speaker 1: he can't, will stop him and structs explanation for that is, well, 1043 01:10:58,200 --> 01:11:01,200 Speaker 1: I meant the American people to vote, would stop him, 1044 01:11:01,400 --> 01:11:04,160 Speaker 1: and that just defies credulity. I mean, he was saying, 1045 01:11:04,240 --> 01:11:06,720 Speaker 1: we at the FBI will stop him. Same thing with 1046 01:11:06,800 --> 01:11:10,360 Speaker 1: the insurance policy text. It's obvious. And I think Page 1047 01:11:10,439 --> 01:11:13,479 Speaker 1: was smart enough to not try to lie about that 1048 01:11:13,560 --> 01:11:15,519 Speaker 1: and then just beyond it. Of course, you know, I 1049 01:11:15,560 --> 01:11:18,800 Speaker 1: think she was obviously very biased against Trump. But but uh, 1050 01:11:19,080 --> 01:11:21,920 Speaker 1: Struck was really in a position to use his bias 1051 01:11:22,000 --> 01:11:24,519 Speaker 1: in ways that Page probably wasn't. So I think she 1052 01:11:24,640 --> 01:11:28,719 Speaker 1: probably has less exposure than been Struck does. But man, 1053 01:11:28,760 --> 01:11:33,000 Speaker 1: his explanations, I don't think people viewed those as worth 1054 01:11:33,320 --> 01:11:36,400 Speaker 1: worth worth anything. And I think he really hurt himself 1055 01:11:36,800 --> 01:11:39,720 Speaker 1: with his performance in front of the Congress. You know, 1056 01:11:39,800 --> 01:11:42,759 Speaker 1: he seems to have suffered from acute amnesia. He doesn't 1057 01:11:42,760 --> 01:11:48,360 Speaker 1: really remember changing Comey's statement of Clinton's conduct from gross 1058 01:11:48,400 --> 01:11:51,720 Speaker 1: negligence to extremely careless, even though the meta data on 1059 01:11:51,960 --> 01:11:54,680 Speaker 1: his computer shows he made the change. And then he 1060 01:11:54,800 --> 01:11:58,519 Speaker 1: also said, well, I don't really remember writing that text 1061 01:11:58,600 --> 01:12:01,920 Speaker 1: message that we're gonna stop Trump, and then he went 1062 01:12:01,920 --> 01:12:04,160 Speaker 1: on to explain what it meant even though he didn't 1063 01:12:04,200 --> 01:12:08,280 Speaker 1: remember it. Uh. And and you know what also struck 1064 01:12:08,320 --> 01:12:12,519 Speaker 1: me is that he said, and I'm I'm looking at Oh, 1065 01:12:12,560 --> 01:12:15,240 Speaker 1: here it is. He had the audacity. This is Peter 1066 01:12:15,320 --> 01:12:19,519 Speaker 1: Struck to say, quote, I do not have bias. He 1067 01:12:19,640 --> 01:12:27,519 Speaker 1: later then testified those text messages are not indicative of bias, 1068 01:12:27,680 --> 01:12:29,760 Speaker 1: you know, which must mean the earth is flat and 1069 01:12:29,880 --> 01:12:32,360 Speaker 1: picks can fly. I mean, nobody with an ounce of 1070 01:12:32,400 --> 01:12:37,800 Speaker 1: intelligence congressman could possibly buy the self serving rubbish that 1071 01:12:37,960 --> 01:12:41,040 Speaker 1: Peter Struck was peddling in that, by the way, includes 1072 01:12:41,080 --> 01:12:45,000 Speaker 1: the Inspector General, who, after his investigation wrote, I think 1073 01:12:45,040 --> 01:12:49,400 Speaker 1: it's page my memory serves me correctly or thereabouts. He said, 1074 01:12:49,479 --> 01:12:55,000 Speaker 1: quote the struct page communications are not only indicative of 1075 01:12:55,080 --> 01:13:00,120 Speaker 1: a biased state of mind, but imply a willingness to 1076 01:13:00,200 --> 01:13:05,559 Speaker 1: take action to impact a presidential candidates electoral process. Is 1077 01:13:05,560 --> 01:13:09,120 Speaker 1: there any doubt in your mind that they did use 1078 01:13:09,800 --> 01:13:13,839 Speaker 1: their positions of power to take official action to try 1079 01:13:13,880 --> 01:13:18,679 Speaker 1: to alter the events. No. In fact, in Horwits even 1080 01:13:18,680 --> 01:13:21,200 Speaker 1: admitted when I questioned him, if you look at what 1081 01:13:21,320 --> 01:13:25,639 Speaker 1: happened after Struck opens the counter intelligence investigation, we then 1082 01:13:25,720 --> 01:13:30,000 Speaker 1: have the surfacing of the Anthony Weener emails in September 1083 01:13:30,040 --> 01:13:32,839 Speaker 1: of so right in the home stretch of the election, 1084 01:13:33,200 --> 01:13:36,680 Speaker 1: and Struck he refused to really pursue that because he 1085 01:13:36,800 --> 01:13:41,400 Speaker 1: was so worried about this collusion investigation that he had concocted. 1086 01:13:41,680 --> 01:13:46,400 Speaker 1: And Horowitz said that structs explanation for his conduct was 1087 01:13:46,439 --> 01:13:50,439 Speaker 1: not credible and that the most reasonable inference was that 1088 01:13:50,640 --> 01:13:53,120 Speaker 1: it was his bias that was causing him to slow 1089 01:13:53,160 --> 01:13:56,360 Speaker 1: walk the Hillary stuff and focus on Trump. And I 1090 01:13:56,360 --> 01:14:00,000 Speaker 1: think it dovetails. I think his actions throughout both investigations 1091 01:14:00,200 --> 01:14:03,840 Speaker 1: really dovetail with his bias. And yes, how absurd is 1092 01:14:03,880 --> 01:14:06,880 Speaker 1: it to say that you're not biased with stuff like that? 1093 01:14:06,920 --> 01:14:09,519 Speaker 1: He tried to say, Look, we're allowed to have political opinion. 1094 01:14:09,840 --> 01:14:11,600 Speaker 1: I mean, Greg, it's like if you were and I 1095 01:14:11,640 --> 01:14:13,760 Speaker 1: were in the FBI and you and I debated like 1096 01:14:13,880 --> 01:14:17,679 Speaker 1: the merits of a tax reform proposal. Uh, he's trying 1097 01:14:17,680 --> 01:14:19,400 Speaker 1: to say what he was saying as a kin to that, 1098 01:14:19,479 --> 01:14:21,000 Speaker 1: I can give me a break. That was not just 1099 01:14:21,040 --> 01:14:24,160 Speaker 1: a political opinion. That was a deep seated animus that 1100 01:14:24,240 --> 01:14:26,800 Speaker 1: he had towards Donald Trump. And look, it would be 1101 01:14:26,840 --> 01:14:30,519 Speaker 1: one thing if there was evidence. Obvious evidence is why 1102 01:14:30,560 --> 01:14:33,519 Speaker 1: you should start investigation. But makes it so troubling is 1103 01:14:33,560 --> 01:14:36,240 Speaker 1: even after us asking all this time, why did you 1104 01:14:36,280 --> 01:14:39,080 Speaker 1: do it? You know what we're left with is Papadopolis 1105 01:14:39,320 --> 01:14:43,080 Speaker 1: and a and a Steel dossier that was funded by Hillary. Uh. 1106 01:14:43,120 --> 01:14:47,040 Speaker 1: That's just not acceptable in the United States of America. Well, 1107 01:14:47,040 --> 01:14:50,400 Speaker 1: the great irony is that the Hillary Clinton campaign and 1108 01:14:50,439 --> 01:14:54,479 Speaker 1: the Democratic National Committee paid money to a foreign national, 1109 01:14:54,600 --> 01:14:58,559 Speaker 1: which I view as a violation of the Federal Campaign 1110 01:14:58,560 --> 01:15:03,559 Speaker 1: Election Act. Uh. And yet there's no investigation of her 1111 01:15:03,680 --> 01:15:08,360 Speaker 1: for that. Uh, there's no potential prosecution of her for that. Uh. 1112 01:15:08,400 --> 01:15:14,360 Speaker 1: And an associate, juxtaposed this, an associated Donald Trump uh 1113 01:15:14,400 --> 01:15:18,400 Speaker 1: and his son uh, you know, meet with a Russian lawyer. 1114 01:15:18,680 --> 01:15:23,479 Speaker 1: No money has exchanged, no information ended up being handed over, 1115 01:15:24,080 --> 01:15:28,960 Speaker 1: But somehow talking to a Russian is a crime. And 1116 01:15:29,000 --> 01:15:30,879 Speaker 1: by the way, if you look up on the website, 1117 01:15:30,880 --> 01:15:35,120 Speaker 1: the Federal Luck Commission Election Commission's website, they say foreign 1118 01:15:35,200 --> 01:15:41,400 Speaker 1: nationals are permitted to participate in American political campaigns. They 1119 01:15:41,400 --> 01:15:45,200 Speaker 1: can attend meeting, provide information, you know, they can talk 1120 01:15:45,320 --> 01:15:48,439 Speaker 1: as long as money is an exchange. But the media 1121 01:15:48,600 --> 01:15:52,080 Speaker 1: and Democrats have that as a crime. But it's not 1122 01:15:52,200 --> 01:15:54,799 Speaker 1: criminal for Hillary Clinton to pay money to a foreign 1123 01:15:54,880 --> 01:15:59,280 Speaker 1: national to trash Donald Trump. And also, I mean, what 1124 01:15:59,360 --> 01:16:03,679 Speaker 1: are they that whatever information steal got that he got 1125 01:16:03,720 --> 01:16:08,080 Speaker 1: for free? I mean, Christopher Steele almost assuredly had to 1126 01:16:08,120 --> 01:16:10,520 Speaker 1: pay some of that money to some of these Russians 1127 01:16:11,000 --> 01:16:13,000 Speaker 1: that he was getting information from it, Like it wasn't 1128 01:16:13,040 --> 01:16:16,240 Speaker 1: credible information, but he was getting it from somewhere. He 1129 01:16:16,320 --> 01:16:19,479 Speaker 1: was getting this innuendo. So I think the money that 1130 01:16:19,600 --> 01:16:24,080 Speaker 1: Hillary paid to Perkins Coohee, who then paid Fusion and 1131 01:16:24,160 --> 01:16:26,799 Speaker 1: then paid Steel, I think some of that money ultimately 1132 01:16:26,880 --> 01:16:29,240 Speaker 1: ended up in the hands of some Russians. And so yeah, 1133 01:16:29,280 --> 01:16:33,559 Speaker 1: it's it's absolutely ridiculous they were paying for for opposition research. 1134 01:16:34,000 --> 01:16:37,519 Speaker 1: If some Russian national had just come to their campaign 1135 01:16:37,520 --> 01:16:39,920 Speaker 1: and said they had dirt on Trump, they would have 1136 01:16:39,960 --> 01:16:42,360 Speaker 1: taken the meeting in a minute. We all know that. 1137 01:16:42,479 --> 01:16:46,040 Speaker 1: So it's just, uh, it's hypocrisy. But the media, I 1138 01:16:46,080 --> 01:16:48,800 Speaker 1: think with all this Russia stuff, you know, this is 1139 01:16:48,840 --> 01:16:51,000 Speaker 1: the horse they want to ride, and they've been riding 1140 01:16:51,000 --> 01:16:53,160 Speaker 1: it for a year and a half now and they're 1141 01:16:53,200 --> 01:16:55,040 Speaker 1: continuing to do it, and they're going to try to 1142 01:16:55,040 --> 01:16:57,559 Speaker 1: blow anything they can out of proportion so it fits 1143 01:16:57,600 --> 01:17:01,840 Speaker 1: their narrative. We're talking with Congressman Ron de sandis also 1144 01:17:01,880 --> 01:17:06,320 Speaker 1: a good editorial candidate in Florida.

But we've 1161 01:17:59,080 --> 01:18:02,959 Speaker 1: been talking about it with Congressman Ron de Santis of Florida. 1162 01:18:03,040 --> 01:18:05,040 Speaker 1: He's running for governor down there. He's a member of 1163 01:18:05,080 --> 01:18:11,400 Speaker 1: the Freedom Caucus and he has been instrumental in attempting 1164 01:18:11,520 --> 01:18:16,800 Speaker 1: to uncover the wrong full as by many people at 1165 01:18:16,800 --> 01:18:21,240 Speaker 1: the FBI and the Department of Justice and Congressman All 1166 01:18:21,280 --> 01:18:25,080 Speaker 1: along the way, the FBI and the d o J, 1167 01:18:25,320 --> 01:18:31,280 Speaker 1: and in particular Rod Rosenstein have been resisting and obstructing 1168 01:18:31,680 --> 01:18:36,639 Speaker 1: and defining lawful subpoenas. So where are you in all 1169 01:18:36,680 --> 01:18:41,879 Speaker 1: of that? Look, Greg, we have to set a sanction 1170 01:18:42,439 --> 01:18:45,519 Speaker 1: for non compliance, and basically we've gone back and forth. 1171 01:18:46,120 --> 01:18:48,280 Speaker 1: I think what you do is when you have a deadline, 1172 01:18:48,320 --> 01:18:50,400 Speaker 1: you say the next day will be a contempt of 1173 01:18:50,439 --> 01:18:53,400 Speaker 1: congress hearing if you don't produce what we need to produce. 1174 01:18:53,439 --> 01:18:55,840 Speaker 1: I mean, this is step that we're clearly entitled to. 1175 01:18:56,160 --> 01:19:00,400 Speaker 1: I we we're conducting oversight over potential abuse of the 1176 01:19:00,439 --> 01:19:04,600 Speaker 1: government's counterintelligence powers. That is, if that's not right for 1177 01:19:04,640 --> 01:19:07,599 Speaker 1: congressional oversight, I don't know what is. And I think 1178 01:19:07,640 --> 01:19:11,559 Speaker 1: that Rosenstein has has stone walled, and I think they 1179 01:19:11,560 --> 01:19:14,000 Speaker 1: are trying to run the clock out, as Devin Nuna said. 1180 01:19:14,040 --> 01:19:16,160 Speaker 1: So it's something we got to do this soon, though, 1181 01:19:16,400 --> 01:19:18,600 Speaker 1: and I think we've waited too long. So I'm in 1182 01:19:18,640 --> 01:19:21,519 Speaker 1: favor of imposing some penalties here so that we can 1183 01:19:21,560 --> 01:19:24,360 Speaker 1: finally get them to comply. I mean, we're looking specifically 1184 01:19:25,200 --> 01:19:27,080 Speaker 1: to the two things we need, I think right now 1185 01:19:27,240 --> 01:19:31,560 Speaker 1: are the information about why struck open the counter intelligence 1186 01:19:31,600 --> 01:19:37,080 Speaker 1: investigation against Trump's campaign, what was underlying reason the different 1187 01:19:37,479 --> 01:19:40,400 Speaker 1: any documents that were produced with that, And then any 1188 01:19:40,520 --> 01:19:46,040 Speaker 1: documents involving any other contact between any type of FBI 1189 01:19:46,200 --> 01:19:50,240 Speaker 1: informant and the Trump campaign proceeding July thirty one. And 1190 01:19:50,280 --> 01:19:52,800 Speaker 1: we know there was some contact, so someone likes to 1191 01:19:52,840 --> 01:19:55,920 Speaker 1: find howper potentially others, what did the FBI do, if anything, 1192 01:19:56,240 --> 01:20:02,360 Speaker 1: to initiate contact. Alright, Rhonda Santa's congressman from Florida, giveatorial 1193 01:20:02,479 --> 01:20:06,080 Speaker 1: candidate there. Thank you very much for being with us today. 1194 01:20:06,080 --> 01:20:09,559 Speaker 1: I'm Greg Jarrett filling in for Sean Hannity on the 1195 01:20:09,600 --> 01:20:14,080 Speaker 1: Sean Hannity Show.

Welcome back 1197 01:20:16,280 --> 01:20:18,960 Speaker 1: to the Sean Hannity Show on Greg Jared filling in 1198 01:20:19,080 --> 01:20:23,759 Speaker 1: for Sean today. Uh, my book comes out, The Russia Hoax, 1199 01:20:24,520 --> 01:20:28,160 Speaker 1: The Illicit Scheme to clear Hillary Clinton and frame Donald Trump. 1200 01:20:28,240 --> 01:20:36,200 Speaker 1: This coming Tuesday, July four. I started writing this in December, uh, 1201 01:20:36,240 --> 01:20:39,080 Speaker 1: and I wrote seven hours a day, seven days a 1202 01:20:39,120 --> 01:20:41,880 Speaker 1: week until I finished in late April, then spent the 1203 01:20:41,960 --> 01:20:47,000 Speaker 1: month of May rewriting, adding things because so much was 1204 01:20:47,040 --> 01:20:50,400 Speaker 1: happening while I was writing the book, so additions and 1205 01:20:50,479 --> 01:20:53,360 Speaker 1: revisions had to be made. It went to print the 1206 01:20:53,400 --> 01:20:57,400 Speaker 1: first week of June, and it's already out at the 1207 01:20:57,400 --> 01:21:00,600 Speaker 1: bookstores at Barnes and Noble and Costco and Target and 1208 01:21:00,680 --> 01:21:03,559 Speaker 1: Sam's Club and you know all the places you want 1209 01:21:03,560 --> 01:21:06,639 Speaker 1: to pick up a book, or you can just order 1210 01:21:06,680 --> 01:21:09,960 Speaker 1: it Amazon dot com, Barnes and Noble dot com, go 1211 01:21:10,040 --> 01:21:13,360 Speaker 1: to Hannity dot com. There's a link there, and you 1212 01:21:13,400 --> 01:21:15,479 Speaker 1: don't even have to leave the comfort of your home. 1213 01:21:15,560 --> 01:21:18,000 Speaker 1: It will be delivered to your doorstep. And then you 1214 01:21:18,040 --> 01:21:21,360 Speaker 1: can sit down and read the three hundred pages of 1215 01:21:21,400 --> 01:21:25,559 Speaker 1: the Russia Hoax. And so what does it tell you? Well, 1216 01:21:25,680 --> 01:21:32,800 Speaker 1: I reveal that those within the FBI and Barack Obama's 1217 01:21:32,840 --> 01:21:37,080 Speaker 1: Department of Justice worked not just improperly, but I believe 1218 01:21:37,640 --> 01:21:42,120 Speaker 1: illegally to support the election of Hillary Clinton and defeat 1219 01:21:42,160 --> 01:21:47,320 Speaker 1: Donald Trump in the two thousand sixteen presidential election. And 1220 01:21:47,400 --> 01:21:52,960 Speaker 1: it failed. So those same people, undeterred by the law, 1221 01:21:53,680 --> 01:21:59,880 Speaker 1: decided to contrive an investigation of President Trump. The so 1222 01:22:00,120 --> 01:22:05,000 Speaker 1: called collusion in an attempt to undo the election results 1223 01:22:05,600 --> 01:22:10,080 Speaker 1: and remove him as president. Why because these people were 1224 01:22:10,160 --> 01:22:15,960 Speaker 1: so arrogant that they believe that the American public, that's you, 1225 01:22:16,160 --> 01:22:21,800 Speaker 1: the listeners, didn't know enough, didn't know any better. Uh, 1226 01:22:21,920 --> 01:22:25,680 Speaker 1: you know, you're deplorable, and you couldn't possibly think with 1227 01:22:25,800 --> 01:22:30,280 Speaker 1: that brain of yours to make a proper decision as 1228 01:22:30,360 --> 01:22:34,080 Speaker 1: to who should be the president of the United States. 1229 01:22:34,080 --> 01:22:38,519 Speaker 1: And when you chose Donald Trump, guys like James Comey 1230 01:22:38,600 --> 01:22:42,160 Speaker 1: and Peter Strock and Andrew McCabe and the whole gang 1231 01:22:42,240 --> 01:22:45,479 Speaker 1: over the FBI and others like Bruce Lore at the 1232 01:22:45,560 --> 01:22:49,320 Speaker 1: Department of Justice, with the help of the money of 1233 01:22:49,439 --> 01:22:54,240 Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton, win after Donald Trump with a vengeance to 1234 01:22:54,840 --> 01:22:59,920 Speaker 1: destroy him. And the evidence is compelling that these part 1235 01:23:00,000 --> 01:23:04,439 Speaker 1: Wison's within the FBI and the Department of Justice, driven 1236 01:23:04,520 --> 01:23:09,880 Speaker 1: by you know, this personal animus and a misplaced sense 1237 01:23:09,920 --> 01:23:18,560 Speaker 1: of political righteousness, covertly surreptitiously acted to subvert electoral democracy 1238 01:23:19,040 --> 01:23:23,080 Speaker 1: in our country. And I am absolutely convinced, and the 1239 01:23:23,240 --> 01:23:27,200 Speaker 1: evidence in my book I believe will persuade you that 1240 01:23:27,439 --> 01:23:33,719 Speaker 1: this is the biggest political scandal and the greatest hoax 1241 01:23:33,960 --> 01:23:39,559 Speaker 1: ever perpetrated on Americans in modern history and maybe in 1242 01:23:39,640 --> 01:23:42,840 Speaker 1: all of history. We're taking your phone calls, and I 1243 01:23:42,840 --> 01:23:45,720 Speaker 1: appreciate your support on this book. People have been buying it. 1244 01:23:46,080 --> 01:23:48,800 Speaker 1: We've been doing well on the pre orders on Amazon 1245 01:23:48,840 --> 01:23:51,840 Speaker 1: dot com and Barnes and Noble dot com. And I 1246 01:23:51,880 --> 01:23:54,920 Speaker 1: appreciate your support. You've been very kind people sending me 1247 01:23:54,920 --> 01:23:59,760 Speaker 1: messages encouraging me through the process of writing the book. 1248 01:23:59,800 --> 01:24:03,320 Speaker 1: And now when it's about to come out next Tuesday, 1249 01:24:03,840 --> 01:24:06,439 Speaker 1: let's go to a Doug in Michigan who's been holding 1250 01:24:06,479 --> 01:24:09,000 Speaker 1: and standing by. And Doug, thanks for your patients. What 1251 01:24:09,040 --> 01:24:13,120 Speaker 1: do you think? Hi? Greg? Um, I really appreciate talking 1252 01:24:13,160 --> 01:24:16,400 Speaker 1: to you. Your true warrior is some that said earlier, 1253 01:24:16,439 --> 01:24:18,760 Speaker 1: and I appreciate you standing up for truth justice in 1254 01:24:18,760 --> 01:24:23,960 Speaker 1: the American way. UM. My thought is you are really 1255 01:24:23,960 --> 01:24:27,120 Speaker 1: good at explaining things for late people. And what I'm 1256 01:24:27,200 --> 01:24:30,840 Speaker 1: worried about and wonder about is why Devin Newness and 1257 01:24:30,920 --> 01:24:33,920 Speaker 1: the Oversight Committee don't just charge these people in the 1258 01:24:33,960 --> 01:24:37,639 Speaker 1: d o J and FBI with contempted instruction and yet 1259 01:24:37,680 --> 01:24:40,799 Speaker 1: a warrant or whatever with maybe federal marshals or whoever 1260 01:24:40,840 --> 01:24:44,040 Speaker 1: they would have and pull a Muller and go in 1261 01:24:44,160 --> 01:24:46,800 Speaker 1: and grab the documentation they need and put an end 1262 01:24:46,840 --> 01:24:50,800 Speaker 1: to this forever drama that's been going on. Is there 1263 01:24:51,320 --> 01:24:55,040 Speaker 1: some rule or law or stipulations that they can't just 1264 01:24:55,200 --> 01:24:58,320 Speaker 1: go ahead and do that? There is. You know, while 1265 01:24:58,479 --> 01:25:03,240 Speaker 1: Congress does how of the power of contempt under the law, 1266 01:25:03,320 --> 01:25:08,560 Speaker 1: they do not have the power to enforce contempt with punishment. 1267 01:25:09,360 --> 01:25:13,200 Speaker 1: They instead have to go to another branch of government, 1268 01:25:13,240 --> 01:25:15,799 Speaker 1: the judiciary, and they would have to go since their 1269 01:25:15,840 --> 01:25:18,920 Speaker 1: Congress is in Washington, d C. They would have to 1270 01:25:18,960 --> 01:25:22,720 Speaker 1: go to a federal judge in that jurisdiction UH and 1271 01:25:22,840 --> 01:25:28,160 Speaker 1: seek enforcement of their contempt citation. Now, look in a 1272 01:25:28,160 --> 01:25:32,559 Speaker 1: lot of jurisdictions where I used to practice law back 1273 01:25:32,560 --> 01:25:35,280 Speaker 1: in the eighties in California. You know, if you defied 1274 01:25:35,320 --> 01:25:38,879 Speaker 1: a lawful subpoena and there there'd be a bench warrant 1275 01:25:38,920 --> 01:25:41,920 Speaker 1: issued by a judge without a hearing for your arrest, 1276 01:25:42,479 --> 01:25:45,360 Speaker 1: and thereafter there'd be a here what's called a show 1277 01:25:45,439 --> 01:25:48,400 Speaker 1: cause hearing, the show cause why you should not be 1278 01:25:48,520 --> 01:25:52,160 Speaker 1: held in contempt. And there are very few excuses for 1279 01:25:52,320 --> 01:25:57,800 Speaker 1: defining a subpoena. I used to issue subpoenas as a 1280 01:25:57,880 --> 01:26:02,559 Speaker 1: lawyer in the cases in which I was handling, and 1281 01:26:02,960 --> 01:26:07,559 Speaker 1: people rarely defied a subpoena, but when they did, I 1282 01:26:07,600 --> 01:26:11,320 Speaker 1: went to a judge, it was enforced, and that individual 1283 01:26:11,520 --> 01:26:15,000 Speaker 1: invariably ended up in the hoost goal without a toothbrush. 1284 01:26:15,080 --> 01:26:20,200 Speaker 1: And unfortunately, in Washington, d C. The courts, the federal 1285 01:26:20,240 --> 01:26:24,360 Speaker 1: courts are populated by a bunch of bleeding heart, whiny 1286 01:26:24,400 --> 01:26:28,960 Speaker 1: liberals and oh, you know, can't we work this out. 1287 01:26:29,080 --> 01:26:33,960 Speaker 1: I don't want to throw anybody in jail. Kumbayah. And 1288 01:26:34,120 --> 01:26:38,360 Speaker 1: that's the kind of response you get there. And so 1289 01:26:38,760 --> 01:26:40,639 Speaker 1: you know, we can all feel the pain of members 1290 01:26:40,720 --> 01:26:43,360 Speaker 1: of Congress. They have two steps. They have to first 1291 01:26:44,160 --> 01:26:48,040 Speaker 1: vote for contempt, which would you know, be a majority 1292 01:26:48,479 --> 01:26:50,439 Speaker 1: in the House of Representatives. Then they got to go 1293 01:26:51,000 --> 01:26:55,120 Speaker 1: and enforce the contempt citation, one of the other things 1294 01:26:55,120 --> 01:26:56,840 Speaker 1: they could do. And they, you know, they've drawn up 1295 01:26:56,880 --> 01:26:59,800 Speaker 1: some articles of impeachment for folks like Rod Rosenstein. But 1296 01:26:59,840 --> 01:27:03,120 Speaker 1: the trouble is, you've gotta you gotta get the House 1297 01:27:03,160 --> 01:27:06,320 Speaker 1: to vote by a majority for impeachment, and then the 1298 01:27:06,400 --> 01:27:08,640 Speaker 1: trial for impeachment is in the Senate. You've got to 1299 01:27:08,640 --> 01:27:10,519 Speaker 1: get two thirds and with Democrats there, you just not 1300 01:27:10,520 --> 01:27:13,160 Speaker 1: gonna get it done. So their only avenue. Their only 1301 01:27:13,200 --> 01:27:15,519 Speaker 1: recourse is to go to a federal judge. And good 1302 01:27:15,560 --> 01:27:18,960 Speaker 1: luck in in Washington, d C. So these folks are 1303 01:27:19,120 --> 01:27:23,519 Speaker 1: handcuffed in really trying to pursue the defiance of the 1304 01:27:23,680 --> 01:27:28,600 Speaker 1: law by Rod Rosenstein and Christopher Ray and others. But 1305 01:27:28,720 --> 01:27:31,000 Speaker 1: great question, Doug, Thanks very much. Let's go to Mike 1306 01:27:31,040 --> 01:27:34,000 Speaker 1: in Virginia has been standing by, and Mike, thank you 1307 01:27:34,080 --> 01:27:37,559 Speaker 1: for being with us. No problem, Greg, and I think 1308 01:27:37,920 --> 01:27:39,760 Speaker 1: so much for taking my call today. I listen to 1309 01:27:39,840 --> 01:27:42,720 Speaker 1: Sean Show pretty much every day during the week. That's 1310 01:27:42,760 --> 01:27:46,439 Speaker 1: like I do with Russian limba Um. I'm a disabled veteran, 1311 01:27:46,680 --> 01:27:50,040 Speaker 1: and I wanted to focus primarily on the upcoming election 1312 01:27:50,160 --> 01:27:54,679 Speaker 1: in November, and I've been't I've been voting Republicans since 1313 01:27:54,720 --> 01:27:57,360 Speaker 1: I was eighteen years old, that's thirty years ago this year, 1314 01:27:58,320 --> 01:28:01,040 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna be voting republic Can across the word. 1315 01:28:01,120 --> 01:28:04,719 Speaker 1: I also heard your discussion there with Congressman to Santus 1316 01:28:04,800 --> 01:28:06,880 Speaker 1: in Florida, and best of luck to him and his 1317 01:28:08,160 --> 01:28:12,960 Speaker 1: governor campaign down there. But the Democrats, obviously they have 1318 01:28:13,080 --> 01:28:16,559 Speaker 1: no clue, they have no plan. All they want to 1319 01:28:16,600 --> 01:28:20,639 Speaker 1: do is chirp and complain like crazy. That President Trump 1320 01:28:20,680 --> 01:28:23,000 Speaker 1: had you know, has done this and has done that wrong. 1321 01:28:24,080 --> 01:28:28,040 Speaker 1: And this hoax you've been talking about, that's all it is. 1322 01:28:28,080 --> 01:28:32,240 Speaker 1: I'm convinced one the percented as a hoax. And and 1323 01:28:32,280 --> 01:28:35,080 Speaker 1: also to everything that he's done to the veterans. I mean, 1324 01:28:35,439 --> 01:28:39,000 Speaker 1: I can't say enough about it. And of course I've 1325 01:28:39,000 --> 01:28:44,639 Speaker 1: been retired for the last eight years myself, and uh, 1326 01:28:44,680 --> 01:28:48,200 Speaker 1: and I'm almost very proud to be a Republican and 1327 01:28:48,360 --> 01:28:51,719 Speaker 1: I will always vote that way. I'll be doing again 1328 01:28:51,960 --> 01:28:54,240 Speaker 1: here in Virginia this November, and I'll be voting some 1329 01:28:54,240 --> 01:28:56,800 Speaker 1: Democrats because I get, like the congressman said there in 1330 01:28:56,800 --> 01:29:01,360 Speaker 1: your interview with him, they are nothing but first class. Yeah, 1331 01:29:01,640 --> 01:29:05,040 Speaker 1: and I listen, I agree with you, and God bless you. Um. 1332 01:29:05,200 --> 01:29:09,479 Speaker 1: And you know, we are so appreciative to you. Thank 1333 01:29:09,520 --> 01:29:14,040 Speaker 1: you for your service in our military. UM. And I 1334 01:29:14,080 --> 01:29:17,920 Speaker 1: think you you raise a really great point. UM. I 1335 01:29:17,960 --> 01:29:21,479 Speaker 1: think there's gonna be a red wave in November. And 1336 01:29:21,520 --> 01:29:25,639 Speaker 1: here's why Democrats are moving more and more and more 1337 01:29:25,880 --> 01:29:31,000 Speaker 1: to the left. Prime example, the young woman twenty eight 1338 01:29:31,080 --> 01:29:33,360 Speaker 1: years old in New York who won the you know, 1339 01:29:33,479 --> 01:29:36,280 Speaker 1: Democratic primary for a House seat, so she's a shoe 1340 01:29:36,320 --> 01:29:38,680 Speaker 1: in to be a member of Congress. Her name is 1341 01:29:38,720 --> 01:29:43,920 Speaker 1: Alexandro CaCO Cortez. She is the new fresh face of 1342 01:29:44,360 --> 01:29:49,960 Speaker 1: the increasingly progressive Liberal Democratic Party, and in fact, she's 1343 01:29:50,000 --> 01:29:53,000 Speaker 1: out campaigning with Bernie Sanders today. God bless them, the 1344 01:29:53,040 --> 01:29:57,679 Speaker 1: two socialists together. And you know, if this continues, this 1345 01:29:57,720 --> 01:30:02,439 Speaker 1: will be an early Christmas gift to Republicans. You know, 1346 01:30:02,760 --> 01:30:08,479 Speaker 1: thanks to innumerable television appearances, Democrats are now being asked about, 1347 01:30:08,800 --> 01:30:13,080 Speaker 1: you know, their new their new star in the party, okay, 1348 01:30:13,160 --> 01:30:18,519 Speaker 1: Ceo Cortez. And what they're finding is that she is 1349 01:30:18,680 --> 01:30:24,639 Speaker 1: profoundly ignorant of basic facts of both history and current events. 1350 01:30:24,680 --> 01:30:31,240 Speaker 1: Her full throated embrace of socialism that's troubling enough for Democrats, 1351 01:30:31,280 --> 01:30:35,960 Speaker 1: but her tortured explanation of what America is all about 1352 01:30:37,200 --> 01:30:44,040 Speaker 1: is now branding all Democrats as obtuse. And now it's 1353 01:30:44,040 --> 01:30:48,760 Speaker 1: a debate over capitalism versus socialism at a time when 1354 01:30:48,760 --> 01:30:56,040 Speaker 1: the capitalism markets, market economies are booming. The socialist experience 1355 01:30:56,120 --> 01:30:59,320 Speaker 1: is nothing more than a model for failure. In history 1356 01:30:59,360 --> 01:31:05,200 Speaker 1: tells us capitalism equals prosperity. We're seeing that now. But 1357 01:31:05,280 --> 01:31:07,360 Speaker 1: of course all of that is lost in the likes 1358 01:31:07,400 --> 01:31:12,160 Speaker 1: of Okasio Cortez. And Bernie Sanders, and you know, the 1359 01:31:12,240 --> 01:31:16,879 Speaker 1: whole the whole gang of progressive you know, the warrant. 1360 01:31:16,960 --> 01:31:21,280 Speaker 1: Senator Warren is also one of them. And these are 1361 01:31:21,280 --> 01:31:23,720 Speaker 1: the leaders of the Democratic Party. Let me give you 1362 01:31:23,720 --> 01:31:31,000 Speaker 1: an example of the stupidity of Ocasio Cortez. She said 1363 01:31:31,040 --> 01:31:34,120 Speaker 1: the other day, and this is a quote. Capitalism is 1364 01:31:34,160 --> 01:31:38,759 Speaker 1: not always existed in the world. End of quote. Hello, 1365 01:31:39,560 --> 01:31:44,000 Speaker 1: that's wrong. Capitalism has been around since people were living 1366 01:31:44,040 --> 01:31:50,400 Speaker 1: in caves engaging in primitive trade. Okasio Cortez then said, quote, 1367 01:31:50,880 --> 01:31:54,840 Speaker 1: when this country started, we did not operate on a 1368 01:31:54,960 --> 01:32:01,360 Speaker 1: capitalist economy. Really did Did you ever go to Civics 1369 01:32:01,360 --> 01:32:06,200 Speaker 1: class in high school? We didn't have a capitalist economy 1370 01:32:06,280 --> 01:32:09,479 Speaker 1: when the nation began them what was it? Let me 1371 01:32:09,560 --> 01:32:13,320 Speaker 1: tell you something. Capitalism came to America on board ships. 1372 01:32:13,800 --> 01:32:17,960 Speaker 1: The Quakers, the Puritans, the Virginians, they all extolled market economies. 1373 01:32:18,280 --> 01:32:22,599 Speaker 1: They came to America because it had an abundance of 1374 01:32:22,880 --> 01:32:27,720 Speaker 1: land which they settled and they developed. It was largely 1375 01:32:27,920 --> 01:32:33,040 Speaker 1: an agrarian form of capitalism. Crops were, you know, planted 1376 01:32:33,080 --> 01:32:38,080 Speaker 1: and harvested and traded and sold. There were competitive markets 1377 01:32:38,080 --> 01:32:42,480 Speaker 1: supplying demand, wages, abundant trade. These are all harror marks 1378 01:32:42,520 --> 01:32:48,280 Speaker 1: of capitalism, and it thrived and grew. The initial stages 1379 01:32:48,360 --> 01:32:54,080 Speaker 1: of the Industrial Revolution took place shortly after the Constitutional 1380 01:32:54,120 --> 01:32:59,400 Speaker 1: Convention and the inauguration of President George Washington. You know, 1381 01:33:00,280 --> 01:33:04,759 Speaker 1: to Ocasio Martin Cortez, I would say, read a book, 1382 01:33:04,800 --> 01:33:08,080 Speaker 1: for God's sakes, and I'd be happy to loan you 1383 01:33:08,840 --> 01:33:14,880 Speaker 1: the wonderful book by Ron Cher, now entitled Washington. It's 1384 01:33:14,920 --> 01:33:20,679 Speaker 1: about George Washington, the beginning of our nation, the Revolutionary War, 1385 01:33:21,360 --> 01:33:25,800 Speaker 1: what Americans fought and died for freedom and a capitalist 1386 01:33:25,800 --> 01:33:31,200 Speaker 1: market economy of their own and not just purely British, 1387 01:33:31,320 --> 01:33:37,439 Speaker 1: and the Constitutional Convention are esteemed Constitution and the Bill 1388 01:33:37,479 --> 01:33:41,160 Speaker 1: of Rights, his eight years George Washington as President of 1389 01:33:41,200 --> 01:33:47,080 Speaker 1: the United States. I don't think Ocasio Cortes has ever 1390 01:33:47,160 --> 01:33:52,280 Speaker 1: read a book about American history, because she exhibits nothing 1391 01:33:52,840 --> 01:33:58,519 Speaker 1: but conspicuous ignorance about it. Here's another example. She said again, 1392 01:33:58,560 --> 01:34:02,200 Speaker 1: this is Alexandria okay is deo Cortez, you know, who 1393 01:34:02,280 --> 01:34:08,200 Speaker 1: won the House Democratic primary in New York. She said, quote, 1394 01:34:08,680 --> 01:34:14,639 Speaker 1: unemployment is low because people have two jobs. Really, are 1395 01:34:14,680 --> 01:34:22,000 Speaker 1: you that obtuse? The Labor Department calculates the unemployment figure 1396 01:34:22,760 --> 01:34:28,800 Speaker 1: Alexandra by taking in the number of those without jobs 1397 01:34:28,840 --> 01:34:33,559 Speaker 1: and they divided by the labor force total. Here's the thing. 1398 01:34:34,520 --> 01:34:40,080 Speaker 1: Ocasio Cortez represents the need for an intelligence test before 1399 01:34:40,160 --> 01:34:44,839 Speaker 1: somebody has ever allowed to run and hold public office. 1400 01:34:45,479 --> 01:34:50,600 Speaker 1: She would surely funk a basic high school civics examination. 1401 01:34:51,720 --> 01:34:57,080 Speaker 1: For now, Democrats are stuck with their falling star and 1402 01:34:57,600 --> 01:35:02,200 Speaker 1: Republicans maybe the benefici arays, whatever your calls on the 1403 01:35:02,200 --> 01:35:06,240 Speaker 1: other side.
