1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,240
Speaker 1: All right, glad you with us. Happy Monday toll free

2
00:00:03,279 --> 00:00:05,400
Speaker 1: on numbers eight hundred and nine for one Sean you

3
00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:08,119
Speaker 1: want to be a part of the program. We've got

4
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:12,000
Speaker 1: the lawyers for the president coming up during the course

5
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:15,400
Speaker 1: of the program today. What a beat down Michael Vanderveen

6
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:19,800
Speaker 1: gave the CBS anchor. That was pretty amazing. And Bruce

7
00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:23,360
Speaker 1: Canter also, David Shoone, he did the portion of the

8
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:27,440
Speaker 1: case where he literally lit up the whole room with

9
00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:30,240
Speaker 1: the montage as he played. So we'll go through a

10
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:33,040
Speaker 1: lot of what was going on behind the scenes as

11
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:37,040
Speaker 1: we speak. Andrew Cuomo, the governor of New York, under

12
00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:44,120
Speaker 1: huge pressure former Governor Pataki, now floating the idea that

13
00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 1: this cover up of the nursing home deaths is such

14
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 1: a big deal that they want. He wants the state

15
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:54,640
Speaker 1: to take a hard look at at a recall effort,

16
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:56,520
Speaker 1: which New York does not have a means to do

17
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 1: like California does. Cuomo is now out there trying to

18
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:03,760
Speaker 1: in this again. He's claiming it's not his fault. We've

19
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:05,480
Speaker 1: got to give a shout out to our friends in

20
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 1: Texas today. As Joe Bistarti warned us late last week,

21
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:15,240
Speaker 1: things have gotten really bad down there weatherwise, with snow, low, low, low,

22
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:20,720
Speaker 1: historically low temperatures. You have pavement ice. They don't have

23
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 1: anything that resembles a plow or sander or salting machines. Nothing.

24
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 1: And there's a state of federal state of emergency has

25
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 1: been declared in Texas. Governor abbitted Cruise. I spoke with

26
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:35,480
Speaker 1: both of them, and they're all over it. And but

27
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:37,640
Speaker 1: for those of you down there, it might be time

28
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:40,520
Speaker 1: to check on your elderly neighbors and friends. Make sure

29
00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:43,679
Speaker 1: everybody's okay, everybody has enough heat, they're warm. Maybe you

30
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:46,399
Speaker 1: have a generator, you have an elderly neighbor, you might

31
00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 1: want to invite them in and get them nice and

32
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:50,919
Speaker 1: warm if their house is cold. They just don't prepare

33
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:54,600
Speaker 1: for things like this. Good news in the media front,

34
00:01:54,880 --> 00:02:00,480
Speaker 1: and that being that Parlor is back, thank goodness, And

35
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:07,600
Speaker 1: they apparently have now have bypassed everything. Hold on anyway,

36
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:10,640
Speaker 1: but Parlor's back. They've resumed their social media app. They've

37
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 1: secured a new new computer servers. Not a not an

38
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 1: easy process from everything I know, Uh, you got YouTube.

39
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 1: Not only were they not only were these big tech

40
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:25,920
Speaker 1: companies a lot of them cancel any story by the

41
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 1: New York Post um but then then now deleting portions

42
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:35,359
Speaker 1: of the dislikes when people comment on Biden videos, Oh

43
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:38,760
Speaker 1: that's spam. Okay, can you prove it spam? I'd like

44
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 1: to see. That is a big story I'm gonna I

45
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 1: want to tell you about. There's a smoking gun email

46
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 1: that has finally come out if John Durham is still

47
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 1: awake and doing anything that resembles any real investigation. But anyway,

48
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 1: it was an email from Komey to James Clapper in

49
00:02:56,960 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 1: January of twenty seventeen. Now by that point, the FBI

50
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:05,799
Speaker 1: already knew, having interviewed Christopher Steele. Steele told them that, Yeah,

51
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 1: I did this whole thing dossier thing to hell Pillory

52
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 1: and remember Sally Yates and people who else said it.

53
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:18,080
Speaker 1: Andrew McCabe had said that without the dirty Russian dossier

54
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 1: misinformation Clinton paid for dossier, we wouldn't have gotten the

55
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 1: FISA warrants. Well, now we see in this email that

56
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 1: Comey wrote to James Clapper, we're not able to sufficiently

57
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 1: corroborate the reporting as it relates to the dossier that

58
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 1: was that he signed three warrants four verifying the authenticity

59
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 1: of the information. And he sent this email the day

60
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 1: that he renewed the FISA application, the first renewal, and

61
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 1: then he did one even after that. We're not able

62
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 1: to sufficiently corroborate the reporting. Just the news dot com

63
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 1: is reporting. Wow. Can you imagine that We've got a

64
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 1: lot of news on the Biden agenda, which we're going

65
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 1: to be getting into. Now he's going after your Second

66
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 1: Amendment rights. Now they're refusing to call Israel an ally unbelievable.

67
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 1: Then you got this Deputy Press Secretary was only suspended

68
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 1: now apparently is now resigned. Then of course nobody pays

69
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:29,440
Speaker 1: attention to the Born Alive Infant Protection Act at Republicans

70
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 1: Democratic senators refused to outlaw that. I mean, it's it's

71
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 1: pretty sad. So and then we got this whole impeachment thing.

72
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:40,159
Speaker 1: And on top of it, then you got that Democrats

73
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 1: cannot quit Donald Trump was a red state article. They

74
00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:46,840
Speaker 1: can't quit him. Democrats have a new plan on how

75
00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 1: to get Trump after the acquittal that took place. Republicans, though,

76
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 1: are now finally going on offense, which is a great thing.

77
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 1: You have House Republicans demanding Nancy Pelosi answer some questions

78
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 1: about the Capitol riot. Now, what have we learned? What

79
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 1: was a big part of this whole snap impeachment collapse

80
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,839
Speaker 1: had to do with the fact that they rushed to judgment,

81
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:16,360
Speaker 1: They did no investigation, and they did their snap impeachment,

82
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 1: no due process, no defense, no presumption of innocence of

83
00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 1: any kind. All right, that's that's a big problem that

84
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:25,479
Speaker 1: this is now going to open a door. It's going

85
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:28,120
Speaker 1: to be easy to impeach the president pretty much for

86
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 1: any reason whatsoever. But rightly so, if the FBI knew,

87
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 1: if court documents now show, if Congress want to Concio

88
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 1: Cortes knew a week in advance that this was all

89
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:42,480
Speaker 1: likely to happen. They sent a letter guys like Jim

90
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:48,239
Speaker 1: Jordan and Devin Newness and Rodney Davis and a few others.

91
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:53,560
Speaker 1: James Comer to Pelosi saying that many more important questions

92
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,040
Speaker 1: about her responsibility. She's the head of the sergeant in

93
00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 1: arms in the in the house. Why if everybody else

94
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,119
Speaker 1: seemed to know, and the FBI knew, and even fake

95
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,719
Speaker 1: news outlets like the Washington Post and see an Enter

96
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,560
Speaker 1: reporting it, why didn't they do anything. I mean, this

97
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 1: can't happen to this country in a post nine to

98
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:14,600
Speaker 1: eleven world, as I've been saying, So they're demanding answers

99
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:19,280
Speaker 1: for Pelosi on her security decisions. Mark Meadows was on

100
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,279
Speaker 1: My show Friday night and he confirmed no, the President

101
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:26,479
Speaker 1: offered days in advance to bring in the National Guard

102
00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:29,000
Speaker 1: if they wanted it, and then the media is saying, no,

103
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:32,640
Speaker 1: that's not true. He well, okay, I've never known Mark

104
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:36,599
Speaker 1: Meadows to lie, especially on something as important of as that.

105
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:43,960
Speaker 1: There is great, frankly justified anger against Mitch McConnell, and

106
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:48,920
Speaker 1: Lindsey Graham was on Fox News Sunday dealing with this,

107
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 1: and there's a even a poll out today. Look, if

108
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 1: you fracture the Republican Party, which could happen, but if

109
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:59,120
Speaker 1: it did happen, it's it's it's not that the Democrats

110
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:02,800
Speaker 1: would love it, trust me. And as Lindsay said, I

111
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 1: don't know who McConnell was trying to impress, but certainly

112
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:07,919
Speaker 1: wasn't the people that voted for him. He's right on

113
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,320
Speaker 1: that comment. And if Senate Republicans ever hoped to reclaim

114
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:17,560
Speaker 1: the majority, job one needs to be what I think

115
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 1: probably getting new leadership. Considering that the leadership of the

116
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:26,440
Speaker 1: Republicans has lost touch with the base of their party.

117
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 1: That's not going to end well for anybody. Graham said,

118
00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:31,640
Speaker 1: I think Senator McConnell's speech he got a load off

119
00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 1: his chest, but unfortunately put a load on the back

120
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 1: of Republicans. You know, that speech, you're going to see

121
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:40,680
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty two campaigns against Republicans. And I would

122
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 1: imagine if you're a Republican running in George Arizona, New Hampshire,

123
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:46,680
Speaker 1: where we have a chance to take back the Senate,

124
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:50,080
Speaker 1: they may be playing Senator McConnell's speech and asking you

125
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 1: about it. Then he added, I think McConnell's speech was

126
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 1: an outlier regarding how Republicans feel about this. Obviously, Mitch

127
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,960
Speaker 1: McConnell is way out of touch. And you know, you

128
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 1: need somebody that actually understands the base of their party

129
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:09,680
Speaker 1: and what people want, you know, And there's this one

130
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 1: whole thing here that nobody seems to be getting. The

131
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:19,720
Speaker 1: whole process here should scare every American, starting with Pat

132
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 1: Lahey presiding, a guy that already said on the record

133
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,640
Speaker 1: that he believed Donald Trump was guilty, How did he

134
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:32,720
Speaker 1: get to preside over this this shift show charade that

135
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 1: took place. Now, it always was a predetermined outcome. I

136
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 1: told you that I was right about that. We're not

137
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 1: wrong about that. How did that happen? How does that

138
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:45,960
Speaker 1: in any way represent any fundamental fairness of any kind

139
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:53,680
Speaker 1: in terms of any type of of proceeding for somebody

140
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 1: on an important question like impeachment. It was a big

141
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 1: deal that John Roberts said, now, don't drag me into

142
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 1: this post presidential impeachment shift show charade. I don't want

143
00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:10,560
Speaker 1: any part of it. And he was right. All rules

144
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:16,959
Speaker 1: of evidence, evidentiary standards were thrown out the window, just eviscerated,

145
00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:20,200
Speaker 1: you know. And when they started, when David Shoon started

146
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:28,240
Speaker 1: showing those montages of the incendiary, insurrectionist language of Democrats. Well,

147
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:30,560
Speaker 1: there's a point to be made here, and that is

148
00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:33,720
Speaker 1: that if you apply these exact same standards that the

149
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:39,520
Speaker 1: Democrats are using, if you apply that too, Democrats, guess

150
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:44,520
Speaker 1: what they'd be impeached, including Kamala Harris, and they would

151
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:47,719
Speaker 1: be put on trial. And really, Joe, I want to

152
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 1: beat the hell out of the president. That might rise

153
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 1: to the level itself. Certainly, Chuck Schumerner's threats to Gorsage

154
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 1: and Kavanaugh, but Kamala Harris after the police precinct burned

155
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:04,320
Speaker 1: to the ground Minneapolis, supporting a bail fund so that quote,

156
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 1: insurrectionists that are arrested can get out of prison. And

157
00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:10,840
Speaker 1: some did, and some committed a lot more crimes that

158
00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:15,160
Speaker 1: we've chronicled here on this program, chronicled on TV, you know,

159
00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:18,760
Speaker 1: I mean, it was a powerful case. Is you don't

160
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:22,880
Speaker 1: have snap impeachments like this is why you don't. And

161
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,719
Speaker 1: now that we know that it was pre planned and

162
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:28,360
Speaker 1: that all these groups is that a new one understood

163
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,800
Speaker 1: that it was pre planned. But if you apply the standards,

164
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 1: it's exactly the same. I thought one of the funniest things.

165
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:38,520
Speaker 1: I mean, I never thought it would end the Democratic

166
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 1: politicians fight fight fight, fight fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight.

167
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:44,920
Speaker 1: We gotta fight, we gotta fight, we gotta fight. We

168
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 1: gotta fight, fight like hell. We all gotta fight like hell.

169
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 1: We're gonna I'm gonna fight like hell. Let's fight like hell.

170
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,400
Speaker 1: And it shows that they're not applying the same standards

171
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:57,880
Speaker 1: in in this case to other people. They just they're

172
00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:01,640
Speaker 1: not and they won't and pup can feign all the

173
00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:06,120
Speaker 1: moral outrage she wants. But she's part of the problem

174
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:10,200
Speaker 1: too with her comments about when the Wisconsin state capital,

175
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:13,920
Speaker 1: remember what took place there, and she was cheering that

176
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:18,920
Speaker 1: on herself at the time. The rules don't apply to Democrats.

177
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:22,200
Speaker 1: The rules don't apply to Kamala Harris or Joe Biden,

178
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:27,199
Speaker 1: or Chuck Schumer or Maxine Waters. It looks like the

179
00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:31,520
Speaker 1: censure movement has died. Nancy Pelosi said, no, he deserves

180
00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:34,320
Speaker 1: much more than that. We we censure people for using

181
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:38,439
Speaker 1: the wrong stationary. I'm like, okay, and this is what

182
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:40,320
Speaker 1: this is what we get. This is what the American

183
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:44,440
Speaker 1: people get. Lindsey Graham's saying about this double standard on

184
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 1: Fox News Sunday, Well, if you use their model, I

185
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:51,199
Speaker 1: don't know how Kamala Harris doesn't get impeached if the

186
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:54,720
Speaker 1: Republicans take over the House, because she actually bailed out rioters.

187
00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 1: So now we've opened up Pandora's box here, and it's

188
00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:01,840
Speaker 1: sad for the country. He's right, but you know, and

189
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 1: then I we had this this attorney for the President,

190
00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:08,559
Speaker 1: Michael Vandervey. Oh man, it was just it was a

191
00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 1: brutal takedown of the CBS reporter um. Now for the

192
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 1: Republican senators, the few of those that actually voted guilty,

193
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:24,439
Speaker 1: this massive backlash back in their home districts. Even though

194
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 1: Richard Burr was leaving anyway. And then you have Senator

195
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 1: Cassidy Louisiana, and then you had Pat Toomey, he's out

196
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,280
Speaker 1: as well. You know, they felt, I guess was politically

197
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 1: safe for them. M That's another sad thing is that people.

198
00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:42,840
Speaker 1: It just shows how corrupt the whole swamp is. You know,

199
00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:46,360
Speaker 1: maybe we should do a one and done Congress one

200
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:50,479
Speaker 1: one one term as senator, maybe two terms as congressman

201
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:54,000
Speaker 1: or a woman, and then you're out term limit everybody

202
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:57,960
Speaker 1: so they don't spend all their time playing politics as

203
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:01,439
Speaker 1: we roll along. Sean Hannity Show, eight hundred nine four one, Sean,

204
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 1: if you want to be a part of the program,

205
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:10,319
Speaker 1: you know, revenge and vengeance, forever Democrats and never Trumpers

206
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,840
Speaker 1: and the rest. You know, they just they cannot and

207
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:16,880
Speaker 1: I'm predicting right now. Donald Trump has been pretty quiet.

208
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:20,000
Speaker 1: He did release a statement Saturday, but the President has

209
00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:23,600
Speaker 1: been pretty quiet. And the President, you know, did talk

210
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:28,040
Speaker 1: about the sad commentary in Our Time and that is

211
00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:32,080
Speaker 1: when and this has gone on for the entirety of

212
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:36,040
Speaker 1: him running for office and his presidency. And you know,

213
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:38,800
Speaker 1: we now have a smoking gun email as just the

214
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:41,760
Speaker 1: news dot Com reports today on James Comey. He knew

215
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:46,960
Speaker 1: not to trust the dossier, but signed three applications saying

216
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:50,640
Speaker 1: it was verified, and now he's saying the opposite, saying

217
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 1: he can't verify it. It's just sad. It's that one

218
00:13:55,960 --> 00:14:00,640
Speaker 1: party can, in so many different ways abuse their power,

219
00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:04,320
Speaker 1: be this corrupt. You know, look at the whole quid

220
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 1: pro quo joe issue. You know, zero experience, You're making

221
00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 1: tens of millions of dollars, you know, at one point

222
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:16,840
Speaker 1: five billion dollars, Russian oligarchs, Kazakhstan oligarchs, be Resma, no

223
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 1: experience whatsoever. And it is it is we've gotten to

224
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:27,920
Speaker 1: the point where all of this gets pushed under the

225
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 1: rug and all these weak Republicans. This bothers me that

226
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:38,680
Speaker 1: go out there and where were they during Operation Crossfire Hurricane.

227
00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 1: Where were they fighting the last impeachment with truthful examples

228
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:50,440
Speaker 1: of abuse of power and cashing in on a family name.

229
00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:54,960
Speaker 1: Where were they then? And And that's why I don't

230
00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 1: think they seem to understand why people are so angry

231
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:02,680
Speaker 1: about this, and also publicans have lost their fight. They

232
00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 1: could have learned a lot of lessons from Trump. Okay,

233
00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:07,440
Speaker 1: you don't like his style, got it check, you don't

234
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:11,560
Speaker 1: like his tweeting check. But the American people liked that

235
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:15,840
Speaker 1: he gave promises, he followed through on them, he implement

236
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:19,000
Speaker 1: mended them every day, and he didn't back down on them.

237
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:22,680
Speaker 1: There's a lesson to be learned for any politician if

238
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:26,480
Speaker 1: you have views yours sincere, even Bernie Sanders isn't sincere

239
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:28,920
Speaker 1: all right, twenty five to the top of the hour.

240
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:31,200
Speaker 1: I don't know how Kamala Harris is going to feel

241
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:35,720
Speaker 1: about this. In Minneapolis, you have officials there. This is

242
00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 1: where this whole defund the police effort movement, if you will, started.

243
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:43,120
Speaker 1: They actually wanted to disband remember the entire police department.

244
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:45,960
Speaker 1: Then we found out the people voting that way. Oh yeah,

245
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,680
Speaker 1: they were using taxpayer dollars to pay for their own

246
00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 1: private security. How ironic, right? Anyway, they're planning now in

247
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 1: Minneapolis to spend six point four million to hire dozens

248
00:15:57,280 --> 00:16:00,840
Speaker 1: of police officers at a time, and you still have

249
00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:05,240
Speaker 1: city council members and activist groups advocating to replace the

250
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 1: police department, which I believe they already cut, and they

251
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:14,239
Speaker 1: voted unanimously Friday to approve the additional funding the police requested.

252
00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:16,760
Speaker 1: The department says it only has six hundred and thirty

253
00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:21,400
Speaker 1: eight officers available to work, roughly two hundred fewer than usual.

254
00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:25,680
Speaker 1: I wonder why who's going to want to work there?

255
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,400
Speaker 1: The mob continues to obsess, you know, and this is

256
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:34,280
Speaker 1: the great hypocrisy too. We can't ever allow what happened

257
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:36,280
Speaker 1: at the Capitol that ever happened again, I've been saying

258
00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 1: it every day and every night. You can't allow that.

259
00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:41,240
Speaker 1: How did they breach that? And then the fact that

260
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:45,360
Speaker 1: we had intelligence and that at the FBI knew, and

261
00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:50,960
Speaker 1: that congressmen and women knew apparently, according to Congresswoman Accio Cortez,

262
00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:52,960
Speaker 1: well what did they all know? And when did they

263
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:55,000
Speaker 1: all know it? And why didn't they all say something?

264
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 1: And if they did say something, who did they say

265
00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:00,680
Speaker 1: it too? Because then we would have had the proper

266
00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:04,840
Speaker 1: security to protect our capital, the people's House, our institutions,

267
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:08,600
Speaker 1: and yes, every elected official needs to be protected everyone.

268
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:13,480
Speaker 1: This isn't about politics. But you know, he just had.

269
00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 1: For example, by my account, we've had what ten left

270
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:20,680
Speaker 1: wing protests in New York City in the last what

271
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:24,720
Speaker 1: nine months? As you know, we had, you know, things,

272
00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:27,879
Speaker 1: we're getting out of hand again. Police arrested eleven people

273
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:30,960
Speaker 1: in New York who allegedly bit a CoP's leg when

274
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:34,720
Speaker 1: an anti cop protest turned violet in New York City

275
00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:38,560
Speaker 1: on Saturday, hundred people, I'm sorry. On Friday, one hundred

276
00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:43,760
Speaker 1: people converged on Midtown, New York, defund the police, a

277
00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:47,240
Speaker 1: demonstration organized, according to the New York Post by Black

278
00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:51,760
Speaker 1: Lives Matter. Six women four men charged with disorderly conduct

279
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:56,160
Speaker 1: obstructing government administration. One guy was arrested for kicking one

280
00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:59,600
Speaker 1: officer in the foot while and biting another officer on

281
00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:03,560
Speaker 1: his I okay, well they have no bail in New York.

282
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:06,200
Speaker 1: You know that means they arrest them, they put them

283
00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:09,200
Speaker 1: in jail, they let them out. I mean, it's it's

284
00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:14,160
Speaker 1: insane that this is happening. It's it's madness. And it's

285
00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:17,600
Speaker 1: not just of course. In Portland, Portland you have you know,

286
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:22,040
Speaker 1: leftist activists pelting police now with snowballs. Well, I guess

287
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 1: it's better than bricks and Molotov cocktails and better than

288
00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:28,800
Speaker 1: frozen water bottles. Like we watched all summer, you had

289
00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 1: a hundred protests out there f and then you know

290
00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:38,520
Speaker 1: asteris asterist ask us twelve you know that was in

291
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 1: let's see in midtown Manhattan, and then you had F

292
00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:47,320
Speaker 1: twelve are anti police terms that mean f the police

293
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:51,760
Speaker 1: a reference to some police TV show Adam twelve one

294
00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:55,840
Speaker 1: Atom twelve one twelve. Remember that anyway, And like Barney

295
00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:59,880
Speaker 1: Frank was another police Barney Miller rather was Barney Frank

296
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,359
Speaker 1: a former commerceman. Barney Miller was a former police show

297
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 1: from New York City's twelfth Precinct. Anyway, that's apparently fairly

298
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,399
Speaker 1: well known. I didn't know it until I read it today.

299
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,640
Speaker 1: You still have Cuomo just you know, going out there.

300
00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:19,680
Speaker 1: This is getting really bad for him. George Pataki, former governor,

301
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:23,960
Speaker 1: now thinks, yeah, the issue of you know, this nursing

302
00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:29,159
Speaker 1: home death cover up should result in him being taken

303
00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:32,399
Speaker 1: out of office. But they don't have any recall effort

304
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:34,840
Speaker 1: like they do out in California. And that's that's taken

305
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:40,840
Speaker 1: on a lot of urgency out there. There's now there's

306
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:42,879
Speaker 1: a lot of talk and a lot of studies that

307
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,440
Speaker 1: have been coming out of the damage that is done

308
00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:50,520
Speaker 1: to people families. The AP had a big report that

309
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,520
Speaker 1: for many couples, for example, that we're going to be

310
00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:56,840
Speaker 1: getting married, the pandemic as reeked havoc on their wedding plans,

311
00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:00,639
Speaker 1: bolstering you know, I mean putting a lot stress on

312
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:04,640
Speaker 1: relationships where couples already married, it's posed a you know,

313
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:08,120
Speaker 1: a lot of new tests, some get closer, some people

314
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:12,119
Speaker 1: have you know, fallen apart, and marriages that that is

315
00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:15,359
Speaker 1: now resulting in a lot of divorce around the country

316
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:19,120
Speaker 1: becoming an epidemic. As they give a lot of details

317
00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:23,119
Speaker 1: in this piece. In December, Biden promised Americans that he

318
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:28,240
Speaker 1: would only call for masks until April. And anyway, that

319
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:33,239
Speaker 1: was his declaration. Remember he's gonna he's gonna vaccinate three

320
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:35,880
Speaker 1: hundred Americans in the summer. He said it twice last week,

321
00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:40,480
Speaker 1: three hundred. We're gonna have four to six hundred million doses,

322
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,359
Speaker 1: but we're gonna be only gonna give the vaccine to

323
00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:49,639
Speaker 1: three hundred. Um So people are pretty angry. Anyway. Cuomo

324
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:53,199
Speaker 1: now has Republicans and Democrats calling for his resignation in

325
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:57,840
Speaker 1: New York and there is one politician now calling for

326
00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 1: his emmy to be taken back. An Award wrote the

327
00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:05,800
Speaker 1: book about leadership in the process, his longtime nemesis, Comrade

328
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:09,240
Speaker 1: de Blasio calling for a full accounting of Cuomo's alleged

329
00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:12,520
Speaker 1: nursing home death cover up. I'm not even alleged at

330
00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 1: this point. Now we have a real whistleblower with a

331
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:19,320
Speaker 1: real identity that now has come forward and said, yeah,

332
00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:22,680
Speaker 1: all of this is in fact has happened. So a

333
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:28,640
Speaker 1: lot going on there now, which you watched Joe Biden's agenda.

334
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 1: You know it's funny because now the Democrats they want

335
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:34,920
Speaker 1: to they want to go into more investigations into Donald Trump.

336
00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:37,520
Speaker 1: I found a pretty interesting Red States headline. They can't

337
00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:41,919
Speaker 1: quit him. Democrat's new plan on how to get Donald

338
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 1: Trump like Syria. We had another plan he's out of office.

339
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:50,399
Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosi ruled out censure because she said it's a

340
00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 1: slap in the face to the constitution. It lets everyone

341
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:57,080
Speaker 1: off the hook. And then she's we censor people for

342
00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:03,280
Speaker 1: using stationary for the wrong purpose. Am okay. House Democrats

343
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:06,399
Speaker 1: issue a stark warning about their own party In twenty

344
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:09,960
Speaker 1: twenty two. Some Democrats see that This is not going

345
00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:14,280
Speaker 1: good for them. Joe Biden's team, apparently behind the scenes,

346
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:16,840
Speaker 1: is in a bit of a panic because, you know,

347
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:19,159
Speaker 1: we're going to spend the entire first year of the

348
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:23,000
Speaker 1: Biden presidency, maybe the first two years, always talking about

349
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 1: Donald Trump, meaning his Democratic supporters. I mean, if you

350
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:32,560
Speaker 1: look at Joe Biden's agenda, Senator of Blackburn, Marsha Blackburn

351
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:36,280
Speaker 1: of Tennessee warning Biden that China is not our friend

352
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:40,080
Speaker 1: when she said she hopes Joe Biden understands the threat

353
00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:42,960
Speaker 1: that China is now posing. That's what former Secretary of

354
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:46,880
Speaker 1: State Mike Pompeio was saying as he was leaving that position.

355
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,960
Speaker 1: China is not our friend, she said, They are our adversary.

356
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:54,000
Speaker 1: They practice civil military fusion. You never know where one

357
00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:57,239
Speaker 1: piece ends and the other begins. And he's you know,

358
00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:02,000
Speaker 1: a lot of warning going out Biden to Congress. Now,

359
00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:05,640
Speaker 1: this shouldn't surprise him at anybody. Remember he was gonna

360
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:10,239
Speaker 1: make Beto Bozo O'Rourke as guns are Daily Wire as

361
00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:13,000
Speaker 1: a piece today about Biden to Congress and act major

362
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:16,920
Speaker 1: restrictions on the Second Amendment, on your Second Amendment rights, Well,

363
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:21,400
Speaker 1: that came up in the election too, demanding gun bands

364
00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:26,640
Speaker 1: and new laws that will allow people to sue gun manufacturers.

365
00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:29,280
Speaker 1: That's part of it. Why would you get to sue

366
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:34,520
Speaker 1: unless unless somehow the gun like backfires, it doesn't work properly.

367
00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:40,200
Speaker 1: People that misuse a firearm, that is a crime. Why

368
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:43,280
Speaker 1: would you hold the manufacturer that sells the gun responsible

369
00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:48,560
Speaker 1: with people that don't use Are you going to sue

370
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:54,360
Speaker 1: knife manufacturers or baseball bat manufacturers or tire iron manufacturers?

371
00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:59,159
Speaker 1: If people misuse the products they are what they're intended for,

372
00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:05,000
Speaker 1: let's say, target shooting, hunting, self protection. Right. He's now

373
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:09,640
Speaker 1: calling on Congress to enact these gun reforms, including requiring

374
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:13,040
Speaker 1: background checks on all gun sales, which pretty much happens now,

375
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:19,440
Speaker 1: banning every assault weapon with high capacity magazines, eliminating immunity

376
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:24,600
Speaker 1: for gun manufacturers. Now the way they define an assault weapon,

377
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:28,399
Speaker 1: that probably amounts to a call for banning all semi

378
00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:33,080
Speaker 1: automatic firearms. There was no language included in the statement.

379
00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:35,919
Speaker 1: And if gun owners are not allowed, are we going

380
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,879
Speaker 1: to be allowed to keep the guns we have? Or

381
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:42,240
Speaker 1: is this going to become a mandatory gun confiscation program.

382
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:45,200
Speaker 1: Can't wait to get the details on all of this.

383
00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:52,600
Speaker 1: Jen Saki, the White House Press Secretary. You know, she's

384
00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:56,280
Speaker 1: circling back apparently a lot. But you know, we saw

385
00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:59,560
Speaker 1: what happened on day one when they was at the ambassador.

386
00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:06,679
Speaker 1: Twitter account to Israel changed dramatically, and anyway, it looks

387
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:10,439
Speaker 1: like the hostilities. We're going back to the Obama Biden

388
00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:15,000
Speaker 1: years on the treatment of Israel. There had been no

389
00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:19,480
Speaker 1: president ever that had supported the state of Israel, the

390
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:24,640
Speaker 1: only democracy in the region, our top ally anyway, So

391
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:29,119
Speaker 1: now Biden is refusing to call say they're one of

392
00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:32,720
Speaker 1: our best allies. How did Trump get all these these

393
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 1: deals done with the Emirates, and you know, deals that

394
00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:41,920
Speaker 1: were unthinkable because the Egyptians, Jordanians, the Saudis, the Emirates, Israel,

395
00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,560
Speaker 1: the US have already figured out that a nuclear armed

396
00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:48,399
Speaker 1: Iran and Iranian hegemony in the region is going to

397
00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:53,640
Speaker 1: result in a disaster. Pretty scary times we live in. Then,

398
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 1: of course, the Born Alive Infant Protection Act on Democratic

399
00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:03,960
Speaker 1: senators refused to outlaw that, which is pretty sad. So

400
00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:08,240
Speaker 1: Biden calling on a Congress to ban assault weapons and

401
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:13,159
Speaker 1: institute major gun restrictions. In Puerto Rico, the governor is

402
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:16,919
Speaker 1: saying Congress is morally obligated to act on the statehood vote.

403
00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:23,080
Speaker 1: DC is probably first. Biden's DHS Department of Homeland Security

404
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:27,679
Speaker 1: is about to release twenty five thousand plus migrants into

405
00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:32,119
Speaker 1: Texas and California communities. That's just the beginning of open

406
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:35,679
Speaker 1: borders and amnesty, which through executive order and bypassing an

407
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:39,480
Speaker 1: entire branch of government that Biden has been involved in

408
00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:43,760
Speaker 1: that most people haven't been paying attention to. Texas Sheriff

409
00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:47,439
Speaker 1: is saying clear evidence illegal immigration is soaring under Joe Biden.

410
00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:51,720
Speaker 1: Why not because people know that amnesty is coming. Why

411
00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:54,639
Speaker 1: that's like an invitation. I'm not sure if people are

412
00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:58,000
Speaker 1: following his masked mandate when the country is entered illegally

413
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:02,000
Speaker 1: Biden Polo season now or forcing the release of some

414
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:06,800
Speaker 1: migrants in West Texas in a border community there, and

415
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:10,880
Speaker 1: then they can't do their job. I mean, it's this

416
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,639
Speaker 1: is all the stuff we worried about, you know. The

417
00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:16,720
Speaker 1: smoking gun on just thenews dot com on Coomy is

418
00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:21,760
Speaker 1: pretty amazing because the very day he signed the first renewal, Remember,

419
00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 1: Comey signed the first FISA application unverifiable as it is,

420
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:30,359
Speaker 1: and it says that the type of a top of

421
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:36,239
Speaker 1: a FISA application verified. He signed that first one, you know,

422
00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:40,720
Speaker 1: when Donald Trump was a candidate. Now, as Sally Yates

423
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:44,479
Speaker 1: has said and Andrew McCabe have said, without the dirty

424
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:48,720
Speaker 1: Russian misinformation dossier that Hillary paid for, there would have

425
00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:51,560
Speaker 1: been no approval of the fise of the application. On

426
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:55,280
Speaker 1: the day he signed the first renewal, there were three renewals.

427
00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:59,920
Speaker 1: He was writing James Clapper, we're not able to sufficient

428
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:04,960
Speaker 1: corroborate the reporting home he said about yes, the dirty

429
00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:10,800
Speaker 1: dossier anyway, that was finally made public through open records

430
00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:14,720
Speaker 1: lawsuit by the Southeastern Legal Foundation. Well that's a big

431
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:19,600
Speaker 1: deal because then he signed a third fise the application,

432
00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:22,960
Speaker 1: the second renewal. I got to give a shout out

433
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:27,080
Speaker 1: to my buddy Dan Bongino and his partners a parlor.

434
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:31,119
Speaker 1: They have now resumed the social media app. That's good news,

435
00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:35,359
Speaker 1: and the new CEO saying the platform will remain true

436
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:39,800
Speaker 1: to its free speech roots and has insulated itself from

437
00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:43,680
Speaker 1: future cancel culture. I'm sure it wasn't easy to do,

438
00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:46,880
Speaker 1: but for those of you that like to use social

439
00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:49,280
Speaker 1: media on your own, I am banned by my staff.

440
00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:52,000
Speaker 1: Linda never given me an explanation as to why I

441
00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 1: am banned. I think the audience knows. Why do you? Okay,

442
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:03,080
Speaker 1: what's the reason. Why should I say it? The audience

443
00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:06,320
Speaker 1: already knows. The audience knows why I don't have any

444
00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:08,720
Speaker 1: access to my social media accounts and I don't have

445
00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:12,600
Speaker 1: an email. They know that. That's correct. Do you think

446
00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:17,160
Speaker 1: they understand completely? I do? Actually, yeah, they probably do.

447
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:21,080
Speaker 1: They really, they're wonderful people. I don't even I couldn't

448
00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:22,800
Speaker 1: get on if I wanted to. You guys have made

449
00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:25,880
Speaker 1: it so I can't possibly get on anything. That's true,

450
00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:31,479
Speaker 1: taking me years to perfect this, years and years. I'm

451
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:35,320
Speaker 1: very proud of this work. Oh man, can you put

452
00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:38,640
Speaker 1: up like a disclaimer? Hannity has no No, Hannity has

453
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:43,320
Speaker 1: no access to his own social media accounts. Yeast thy staff,

454
00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:48,040
Speaker 1: so they know. They know. Hannity dot com puts up

455
00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:50,840
Speaker 1: great news every day that that's access to. You can't

456
00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:53,080
Speaker 1: prevent that. You can see it and get it on

457
00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:56,560
Speaker 1: my phone. You can read it. I can still run

458
00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:58,720
Speaker 1: my head and staff. No, I don't have access to

459
00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:01,640
Speaker 1: posting anything on it, that's correct. That's a good point.

460
00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:04,960
Speaker 1: I have access to read it, that's right. Yes, I

461
00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:07,320
Speaker 1: probably could have access to read my Twitter account. I

462
00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:09,680
Speaker 1: just don't do it. This is true. You could reach

463
00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:11,560
Speaker 1: place I want to be us on Twitter. I don't care.

464
00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:21,560
Speaker 1: I just don't care. Days are fifty seven, the yay's

465
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:27,360
Speaker 1: are fifty seven, the nays are forties three. Two thirds

466
00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:30,280
Speaker 1: of the senators President not having pretty guilty that he

467
00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:34,280
Speaker 1: Senator judges that responded, Donald John Trump, former President of

468
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:38,360
Speaker 1: United States, is not guilty as charged the article's impeachment.

469
00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:42,640
Speaker 1: All right. That was Pat Lakey on the acquittal of

470
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:48,040
Speaker 1: Donald Trump over the weekend, and it was a pretty

471
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:52,760
Speaker 1: These are are sad and dangerous times when you could

472
00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:56,960
Speaker 1: literally now hold one party to one group of set

473
00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:00,520
Speaker 1: of standards and another party another set of standards. It

474
00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:09,480
Speaker 1: is extremely it's extraordinarily dangerous when evidentiary standards are completely bypassed.

475
00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:16,080
Speaker 1: It's dangerous. When Pat Lahey is presiding over the shift show, Charadas,

476
00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:19,760
Speaker 1: I call it, while he himself is ready on record

477
00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:24,640
Speaker 1: saying Donald Trump is guilty. That doesn't represent anything that

478
00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:30,360
Speaker 1: is that resembles due process, presumption of innocence in any way.

479
00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:36,040
Speaker 1: None of these videotapes that were used by the House

480
00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:40,440
Speaker 1: managers would ever have been admissible in a court of law.

481
00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:46,200
Speaker 1: Now add to that, there's a great exchange between one

482
00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 1: of the president's attorneys, Michael Vanderveen as CBS anchors as well.

483
00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:55,280
Speaker 1: You know, there's only a little thing, a little They

484
00:31:55,560 --> 00:32:00,760
Speaker 1: literally altered evidence now that in any other real court

485
00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:04,120
Speaker 1: of law, who would be considered a huge problem. Listen

486
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:07,000
Speaker 1: to how this exchange went down. Man, your question is

487
00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:09,840
Speaker 1: I want to be clear for our viewer. Listen, I

488
00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:15,240
Speaker 1: want to viewers about saying doctor and evidence. The media

489
00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:18,880
Speaker 1: has to start telling the right story in this country.

490
00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:22,400
Speaker 1: The media is trying to divide this country. You are

491
00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:27,160
Speaker 1: blood thirsty for ratings, and as such, you're asking questions

492
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:31,640
Speaker 1: now that are already set up with a fact pattern.

493
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:35,120
Speaker 1: I can't believe you would ask me a question indicating

494
00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:37,880
Speaker 1: that it's all right, just a doctor, a little bit

495
00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:41,400
Speaker 1: of evidence. There's more stuff that we uncovered that they doctor.

496
00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:44,280
Speaker 1: You have won the acquittal of your client. If you'd

497
00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:47,440
Speaker 1: like to continue to talk about this conversation, we can

498
00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:51,120
Speaker 1: have that discovered. But for me to ask a question,

499
00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:57,200
Speaker 1: a slanting question, a slanted question that was set up

500
00:32:57,240 --> 00:33:00,800
Speaker 1: to say it's okay for them to cheat. That was

501
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:04,480
Speaker 1: your question. Isn't for them to cheat a little bit

502
00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:10,520
Speaker 1: said it was that's what you said. You got to

503
00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:13,240
Speaker 1: live by your word. That's the problem. The media has

504
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:16,680
Speaker 1: to start living by the truth and not trying to

505
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:20,880
Speaker 1: create a narrative. Michael Vandervene, thank you for joining us.

506
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:25,200
Speaker 1: I do appreciate Yeah, okay, I see you taking off

507
00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:29,480
Speaker 1: your microphone now, all right, joining us. Now, Bruce castors

508
00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:32,320
Speaker 1: with us, Michael van derven Now, they had other whole

509
00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:35,240
Speaker 1: other team of lawyers too that deserve to be recognized.

510
00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:39,840
Speaker 1: And David Shone has been on this program many times. Uh, guys,

511
00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:43,040
Speaker 1: welcome to the program. Um. You know, I first, I

512
00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:46,920
Speaker 1: want to start with Bruce Um and Michael. You and

513
00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:53,000
Speaker 1: Bruce are partners in this law firm. Correct, Yes, and yeah,

514
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:55,040
Speaker 1: you know I was critical of you on day one,

515
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:58,280
Speaker 1: and then when I got the context of what had

516
00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:00,880
Speaker 1: actually happened, I felt like I was unfair to you

517
00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:05,040
Speaker 1: based on you weren't scheduled to speak at that moment

518
00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:08,960
Speaker 1: at that time, and it was I just got concerned

519
00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:12,160
Speaker 1: because I felt like opening remarks would always be fairly

520
00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:15,640
Speaker 1: scripted and tightened up. And now that I found out

521
00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 1: the circumstances surrounding it, I think my comments to you

522
00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:21,319
Speaker 1: were unfair. So my humble apologies on that because what

523
00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:24,120
Speaker 1: you guys were able to put together in ten days

524
00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:28,680
Speaker 1: and then when this acquittal is is just a remarkable

525
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:35,440
Speaker 1: legal feat eight day seun we had. I'm the fake media,

526
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:38,520
Speaker 1: I got it wrong eight days. But you know, let

527
00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:40,520
Speaker 1: me let me let me tell you about what happened

528
00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:46,040
Speaker 1: that first day and explain what Bruce pulled off when

529
00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:49,239
Speaker 1: we got into that Senate chamber and they put on

530
00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:52,640
Speaker 1: two hours of video and audio, and you gotta understand,

531
00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:57,480
Speaker 1: they got a Hollywood production company to put together audio

532
00:34:57,560 --> 00:35:01,840
Speaker 1: and visual that would move people and play on people's

533
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:05,440
Speaker 1: sympathies rather than actually dealing with the facts and the

534
00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:10,000
Speaker 1: allegations of what is incitement under a legal definition, uh,

535
00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:13,400
Speaker 1: particularly as it pertains to impeachment. But what the and

536
00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:16,160
Speaker 1: then one of the gentlemen presenting, you know, spoke of

537
00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:20,319
Speaker 1: his um recently deceased child and injected a lot of

538
00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:25,720
Speaker 1: personal emotion uh into into the into his presentation. When

539
00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:29,840
Speaker 1: he stopped, the air in the room was really thick

540
00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:33,640
Speaker 1: and full of emotion. So we walked out on our

541
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:37,720
Speaker 1: break and Bruce, uh you know, leading the team, said, look,

542
00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:41,200
Speaker 1: I'm going to call an audible here we have to.

543
00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:43,360
Speaker 1: We were about to do just two hours of a

544
00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:47,720
Speaker 1: dry jurisdictional argument, which by the way, they'd already voted

545
00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:49,600
Speaker 1: on like a week before, and we weren't going to

546
00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:52,520
Speaker 1: win anyway. So Bruce said, I'm going to take about

547
00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:58,440
Speaker 1: thirty minutes and and change the temperature in that room. David,

548
00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:01,200
Speaker 1: trim yourself down for two hours to an hour and

549
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:04,080
Speaker 1: a half and win a roll that way. He had

550
00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:06,839
Speaker 1: been working on his opening, but it wasn't due to

551
00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:09,919
Speaker 1: be presented yet, so he hadn't finished it. Um, and

552
00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:13,160
Speaker 1: as you saw, he just went up there, uh and um,

553
00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:15,720
Speaker 1: you know, in a kind of a real person way,

554
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,560
Speaker 1: started to talking to him. Could have his tempo been

555
00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:21,560
Speaker 1: better or his rhythm been better, sure, but what he

556
00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:24,120
Speaker 1: went out there and did was a bold move. It

557
00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:28,240
Speaker 1: was an experienced trial lawyer move, having read the room,

558
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:31,400
Speaker 1: and it was it achieved the effect. It was the

559
00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:35,040
Speaker 1: right decision to achieved the effect, cooled down the room

560
00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:40,040
Speaker 1: and allow us to proceed with the jurisdic jurisdictional argument.

561
00:36:41,120 --> 00:36:44,040
Speaker 1: It worked. It may not have been the prettiest thing,

562
00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:47,279
Speaker 1: but it worked. We would do it again. Um. It's

563
00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:50,520
Speaker 1: just so unfortunate how the media you know, really just

564
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:53,480
Speaker 1: gave him a beating over it without having any real

565
00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:56,880
Speaker 1: solid understand That ought to be my first clue anytime

566
00:36:56,920 --> 00:37:01,480
Speaker 1: I echo anything in any manner that might be alignment

567
00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:06,319
Speaker 1: with them, considering they're so wrong so often, and what

568
00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:10,720
Speaker 1: note taken here? You know, I'm watching this whole trial, Bruce,

569
00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:15,120
Speaker 1: and I'm watching. Let's see, they're staging of photoshoot, they're

570
00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:18,600
Speaker 1: altering evidence. They and you guys did a great job,

571
00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:22,000
Speaker 1: I thought with these montages that you put up of

572
00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:26,680
Speaker 1: how what actually the President was saying on January sixth

573
00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:31,799
Speaker 1: versus what the house managers showed because it was deceptive, selective,

574
00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:36,840
Speaker 1: editing at a very high and sophisticated level. Again, nothing

575
00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:42,360
Speaker 1: rules of evidence if applied, normal rules of evidence in

576
00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:45,520
Speaker 1: a court of law, if applied, none of this would

577
00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:49,920
Speaker 1: be admissible. Am I correct? Yeah, that's that's true. And

578
00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:53,960
Speaker 1: worse than that, if Michael I had done that back home,

579
00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:56,359
Speaker 1: that we'd be standing in front of the Supreme Court

580
00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:58,600
Speaker 1: explaining to the Chief Justice why we shouldn't be thrown

581
00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:01,120
Speaker 1: out of out of the are I mean, it's just

582
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:07,200
Speaker 1: awful stuff, and it's it's indicative of the the world

583
00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:10,799
Speaker 1: of Alice in wonderland that we found ourselves in when

584
00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:14,800
Speaker 1: we walked into the Capitol building. I watched this interview

585
00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:18,320
Speaker 1: Michael very closely over the weekend with the CBS anchor,

586
00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:23,560
Speaker 1: and I was you eviscerated her in terms of the arguments.

587
00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:27,560
Speaker 1: I was blown away. And that doesn't happen enough in

588
00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:31,239
Speaker 1: the media. Good for you, I'll tell you that that

589
00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:35,960
Speaker 1: thing has gone viral. I mean, you know, I think

590
00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:39,839
Speaker 1: I spoke what millions and millions of people around the

591
00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:44,759
Speaker 1: world's feel, Sean, And you know, I actually, when I

592
00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:47,719
Speaker 1: look back and I've seen the tape now myself, you know,

593
00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:50,200
Speaker 1: with the time delay and that kind of thing, it

594
00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:52,960
Speaker 1: appeared like we were talking over one another a little

595
00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:56,560
Speaker 1: bit more than we weren't than we actually were. But

596
00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:59,960
Speaker 1: it's really the content of what I said. I was saying.

597
00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:02,480
Speaker 1: And know, the media when I was a kid, you

598
00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:05,520
Speaker 1: watch the news and you get all the facts, and

599
00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:08,440
Speaker 1: you know, not too much opinion, and it's kind of

600
00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:11,799
Speaker 1: flipped a little bit, and and you know, I think

601
00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:13,640
Speaker 1: the press just has to do a little bit of

602
00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:16,960
Speaker 1: a self audit and you know, take be a little

603
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:20,480
Speaker 1: self reflective and see how they can help cool the

604
00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:22,960
Speaker 1: passions in the nation. As well, and how they can

605
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:25,360
Speaker 1: help bring you know, the left and the right a

606
00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:28,880
Speaker 1: little bit closer together, just to find the common ground

607
00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:31,719
Speaker 1: of the national priorities and you know, really move us

608
00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:35,520
Speaker 1: forward on infrastructure, and move us forward on the economy,

609
00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:38,080
Speaker 1: and move us forward on Michael, I've been doing this

610
00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:42,320
Speaker 1: economic equality, all that stuff. You know, I've been on

611
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:45,960
Speaker 1: thirty three years. I've been on Fox twenty five years.

612
00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:50,040
Speaker 1: It's not happening. I mean, you think of Trump's presidency,

613
00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:53,920
Speaker 1: and for three solid years we got nothing but a

614
00:39:53,960 --> 00:40:00,000
Speaker 1: conspiracy theory, a full on hoax. Now that it has been,

615
00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:03,440
Speaker 1: every single thing we reported on these shows of mine

616
00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:07,120
Speaker 1: we got right. They got it wrong. They got Uva wrong,

617
00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:09,799
Speaker 1: they got Duke Lacrosse wrong, they got Ferguson wrong, they

618
00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:13,560
Speaker 1: got Baltimore UH, and Freddie Gray wrong, Richard Jewel wrong.

619
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:16,600
Speaker 1: I could keep going all day here, and I pride

620
00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:19,719
Speaker 1: myself in getting things right. I'll tell you what we

621
00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:23,080
Speaker 1: found down there was in a big way, Washington is

622
00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:28,040
Speaker 1: broken and UM and UH. And they really catered to

623
00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:31,319
Speaker 1: the media. I mean, they are so concerned down there

624
00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:35,080
Speaker 1: about what the media cycle is and what they you know,

625
00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:38,080
Speaker 1: how the media will react. We were all very surprised

626
00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:40,759
Speaker 1: about you know, we're in the novice. We're not politicians.

627
00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:44,759
Speaker 1: We're just the lawyers, were citizens and uh and you

628
00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:47,640
Speaker 1: know we weren't we we weren't at dept at handling

629
00:40:47,719 --> 00:40:51,080
Speaker 1: all of that, but you know we were first. I

630
00:40:51,120 --> 00:40:53,840
Speaker 1: think as far as the Child team's perspective, you know,

631
00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:58,120
Speaker 1: from Bill Brennan to to Bruce Caster and myself, you know,

632
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:02,359
Speaker 1: we were were all pull that. Um, what we did

633
00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:09,040
Speaker 1: in defending the Constitution and defending Bedrock constitutional provisions that

634
00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:12,960
Speaker 1: it set that Senate's eyes a little bit more focused on,

635
00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:16,359
Speaker 1: you know, the problems that that that this country has

636
00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:21,880
Speaker 1: moving forward in as I said, infrastructure or education. I

637
00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:24,520
Speaker 1: know people on both sides of all these issues, but

638
00:41:24,600 --> 00:41:27,120
Speaker 1: they need to work together and find the common ground.

639
00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:30,839
Speaker 1: You know, UM, and any Democrat at any point ever

640
00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:32,640
Speaker 1: come up to you and say you did a good job.

641
00:41:32,719 --> 00:41:39,400
Speaker 1: I doubt it. Well they actually did. Actually you know what, UM,

642
00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:43,480
Speaker 1: one person did one of the representatives hang on that

643
00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:48,880
Speaker 1: we lost somebody I think we lost. Her name was

644
00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:55,319
Speaker 1: Stacy Plasket. She actually gave a very smooth and uh,

645
00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:59,680
Speaker 1: a very good presentation in her case, and she came

646
00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:03,760
Speaker 1: up after a couple of days and introduced herself. UM.

647
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,160
Speaker 1: You know, it was complimentary of the efforts we were

648
00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:10,600
Speaker 1: putting in. UM and you know the passionate zeal we had.

649
00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:14,680
Speaker 1: We also gave her, um, you know, uh compliments and

650
00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:18,440
Speaker 1: were civil with her. But you know, you're right. She

651
00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:20,720
Speaker 1: she was the only one. She was a real class

652
00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:25,160
Speaker 1: act um, Um, Miss Plaskett and uh. And it was

653
00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:28,480
Speaker 1: refreshing for us. Yeah, you know, you would imagine the

654
00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:31,960
Speaker 1: publics were very the Republicans were very hospitable to us.

655
00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:35,239
Speaker 1: They were very polite. Um. The interaction we had with

656
00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:39,920
Speaker 1: the Democrats directly, UM was almost non existent. There was

657
00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:43,200
Speaker 1: a lot of back room channeling between um, you know,

658
00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:45,640
Speaker 1: various staff members in this and that when we were

659
00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:51,279
Speaker 1: talking about witness stipulation and whatnot. UM. But uh, you know,

660
00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:53,759
Speaker 1: we're just we're just child lords. We went down there

661
00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:56,879
Speaker 1: to do our case and get out of there and UM.

662
00:42:57,280 --> 00:43:01,759
Speaker 1: And so you nearly ran into buzz saw with witnesses

663
00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:04,080
Speaker 1: and we thought for an hour or two, I guess

664
00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:09,120
Speaker 1: on Saturday that we had John. We we handle them

665
00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:13,080
Speaker 1: on that they they they they were they were more

666
00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:17,359
Speaker 1: afraid of witnesses than anybody. UM. And the whole silliness

667
00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:22,120
Speaker 1: about and actually it's just unconfionable to say that we

668
00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:24,839
Speaker 1: sent a letter to Donald Trump to have him come

669
00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:30,719
Speaker 1: in and participate and to and to bring exculpatory evidence. Well,

670
00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:33,439
Speaker 1: that's not the way it works. If they wanted mister

671
00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:36,200
Speaker 1: Trump in there, they could have suppeated him, and they

672
00:43:36,239 --> 00:43:38,360
Speaker 1: and they chose not to because they know they didn't

673
00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:40,680
Speaker 1: have any right to and it would be the wrong

674
00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:44,560
Speaker 1: thing to do in a judicial process. As far as

675
00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:49,640
Speaker 1: him bringing exculpritory evidence, it's their burden. They made accusations

676
00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:56,600
Speaker 1: that he insied incited the attack on the Capitol lead false.

677
00:43:57,600 --> 00:44:02,200
Speaker 1: It was premeditated. It was pre and by people far

678
00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:05,800
Speaker 1: on the right and far on the left, not where

679
00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:09,680
Speaker 1: the mainstream of married ninety five percent of the American

680
00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:14,319
Speaker 1: consciousness is. And they and they carried up there. Let

681
00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:16,680
Speaker 1: me give let me give Bruce the last word here,

682
00:44:16,680 --> 00:44:18,600
Speaker 1: because they're just running out of time in this segment.

683
00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:20,759
Speaker 1: A lot more on TV on Hannity tonight. Both of

684
00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:22,440
Speaker 1: you will join us. Bruce, you want to give the

685
00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:25,360
Speaker 1: last word here. We were prepared for that issue with witnesses.

686
00:44:25,400 --> 00:44:28,680
Speaker 1: We had made a list of three hundred plus witnesses.

687
00:44:28,840 --> 00:44:31,440
Speaker 1: We had them all ready to go and even had

688
00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:34,960
Speaker 1: their names down, and it was, in fact, if you

689
00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:37,239
Speaker 1: look at the tape, when the witness issue came up,

690
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:40,000
Speaker 1: Mike and I leaned over and we were discussing, why

691
00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:42,279
Speaker 1: don't we just stipulate to letting her say whatever she

692
00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:44,360
Speaker 1: wants to say, because no one's going to believe anything

693
00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:46,400
Speaker 1: she has to say anyway, because it's a triple hearsay,

694
00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:48,880
Speaker 1: So so what let's just let it in. But that

695
00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:50,920
Speaker 1: was a decision that we figured we need to take

696
00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:53,440
Speaker 1: by the whole team, and so we took a breaking

697
00:44:53,719 --> 00:44:56,680
Speaker 1: and that is ultimately the idea we floated, and ultimately

698
00:44:56,719 --> 00:44:59,799
Speaker 1: that's the decision that they came down with. Thank you,

699
00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:03,879
Speaker 1: Ruce cantor, thank you Michael Vanderveen will have you both

700
00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:08,759
Speaker 1: on Haniday tonight. Congratulations, it was eight days and you

701
00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:13,719
Speaker 1: guys were successful. Congratulations. Not an easy task for any attorneys.

702
00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:16,480
Speaker 1: Thank you all right, twenty five to the top of

703
00:45:16,520 --> 00:45:18,960
Speaker 1: the hour, eight hundred ninety four one, Sean, if you

704
00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:21,920
Speaker 1: want to be a part of the program. One of

705
00:45:21,920 --> 00:45:25,719
Speaker 1: the other things Linda G. Graham said about Mitch McConnell

706
00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:31,200
Speaker 1: over the weekend, warning that McConnell's words and listen this

707
00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:36,200
Speaker 1: is the Republican establishment in their minds. Now, there's a

708
00:45:36,320 --> 00:45:40,399
Speaker 1: poll out today that about sixty five percent of Republicans

709
00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:44,239
Speaker 1: actually want another party. If that happens and the party fractures,

710
00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:47,320
Speaker 1: you got a huge problem. Okay, what's the huge problem

711
00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:53,040
Speaker 1: is now you're siphoning all votes. Can it be done successfully? Yeah?

712
00:45:53,080 --> 00:45:57,359
Speaker 1: But I think I truly believe that the establishment wing

713
00:45:57,400 --> 00:46:01,040
Speaker 1: of the Republican Party, as embodied by the likes of

714
00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:06,879
Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell, that it would be for some reason they

715
00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:09,120
Speaker 1: never they watched, but they didn't learn. And I'm not

716
00:46:09,160 --> 00:46:12,040
Speaker 1: saying you have to take on Donald Trump's style. There's

717
00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:15,760
Speaker 1: very few people like him. He's a disruptor, he's an iconoclass.

718
00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:20,799
Speaker 1: But the agenda and also there's one important ingredient here

719
00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:24,080
Speaker 1: that this is where they've never learned. Their lesson is that,

720
00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:27,440
Speaker 1: you know a lot of politicians, both parties, they go

721
00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:29,640
Speaker 1: to the swamp, they go to the sewer, maybe even

722
00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:33,040
Speaker 1: have the best of intentions, and then they get there

723
00:46:33,560 --> 00:46:37,080
Speaker 1: and then something happens. They love being called senator, they

724
00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:42,120
Speaker 1: love being called congressmen, and then you get the swampy

725
00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:46,320
Speaker 1: you know, the Gang of six, eight, ten, twelve or whatever.

726
00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:52,080
Speaker 1: Deals that are Republicans pretty much caving, and Republicans never

727
00:46:52,200 --> 00:46:55,440
Speaker 1: unite and have the same commitment to fight like the

728
00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:58,440
Speaker 1: entire Democratic Party, and people are fed up with it.

729
00:46:58,560 --> 00:47:00,920
Speaker 1: I mean, I think the great is the example of

730
00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:03,799
Speaker 1: what I'm saying is all those show votes in the

731
00:47:03,800 --> 00:47:07,920
Speaker 1: House of Representatives to repeal and replace Obamacare. Well that's

732
00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:10,799
Speaker 1: what Obama was president, and Obama would never sign that

733
00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:13,560
Speaker 1: into law. But then when they had the chance to

734
00:47:13,600 --> 00:47:16,879
Speaker 1: do it, they didn't get it done. They didn't even

735
00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:21,440
Speaker 1: have a plan that they all were united behind, already

736
00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:24,000
Speaker 1: ready to go. And we had given them so many

737
00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:29,720
Speaker 1: suggestions Concierge's care for every American health savings accounts, catastrophic

738
00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:33,920
Speaker 1: insurance coupled with Concierge's care like like Atlas MD and

739
00:47:34,040 --> 00:47:38,880
Speaker 1: doctor Josh Humber Wichita, Kansas. And then the Senate in

740
00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:43,720
Speaker 1: twenty fifteen they vote straight line Republicans, Yes, we would

741
00:47:43,760 --> 00:47:48,239
Speaker 1: repeal Obamacare's ritch straight repeal bill. Then seven of those

742
00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:51,560
Speaker 1: Republican senators two years later, when it mattered and Donald

743
00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:54,200
Speaker 1: Trump would have signed it, they were nowhere to be found.

744
00:47:54,239 --> 00:47:57,719
Speaker 1: They switched their votes. And this you know, and programmed

745
00:47:57,760 --> 00:48:01,359
Speaker 1: to rightly point out that McConnell to load on Republicans

746
00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:05,719
Speaker 1: back with his anti Trump speech after this whole thing

747
00:48:05,719 --> 00:48:11,040
Speaker 1: went on. Is just completely out of touch with where

748
00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:13,880
Speaker 1: his party is. And had there been a vote, I

749
00:48:13,880 --> 00:48:16,880
Speaker 1: would argue, if there's a vote among Republicans, do you

750
00:48:16,880 --> 00:48:21,279
Speaker 1: believe in America first, make America great again that agenda

751
00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:24,759
Speaker 1: or you want Mitch McConnell. I think he's out of touch.

752
00:48:24,800 --> 00:48:28,080
Speaker 1: He probably would lose nine to ten if he even

753
00:48:28,120 --> 00:48:31,279
Speaker 1: could get ten percent. And it's sad that, you know,

754
00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:34,440
Speaker 1: Republican why didn't he Where was he during the entire

755
00:48:34,960 --> 00:48:40,480
Speaker 1: crossfire Hurricane Russia, collusion, lie conspiracy theories? Where where was he?

756
00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:45,040
Speaker 1: Where was Senator John Thune? Where were most of these Republicans? Senators?

757
00:48:45,239 --> 00:48:48,640
Speaker 1: They were quiet, staying off TV, saying nothing. I mean,

758
00:48:48,719 --> 00:48:52,680
Speaker 1: it's it's it's sad. Democrats they're a lot better at

759
00:48:52,719 --> 00:48:56,880
Speaker 1: staying united and fighting than Republicans are. But that is

760
00:48:57,320 --> 00:49:03,160
Speaker 1: that old style establishment republican Ism is a by gone

761
00:49:03,320 --> 00:49:06,720
Speaker 1: error at this point. You know, it's funny because conservatives

762
00:49:06,719 --> 00:49:09,920
Speaker 1: were told often well, for the good of the party,

763
00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:12,759
Speaker 1: you know, well, it's a lesser of two evils, vote

764
00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:15,160
Speaker 1: for John McCain, a liberal Republican or are you gonna

765
00:49:15,160 --> 00:49:18,400
Speaker 1: get Barack Obama? Okay? I John McCain was not my

766
00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:21,560
Speaker 1: first choice, but John McCain was a lot better than

767
00:49:21,600 --> 00:49:23,920
Speaker 1: Barack Obama. Same with Mitt Romney. All right, let's go

768
00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:26,799
Speaker 1: to the great state of Florida, where everybody seems to

769
00:49:26,840 --> 00:49:30,040
Speaker 1: be moving these days, especially out of New York. David, Hi,

770
00:49:30,200 --> 00:49:32,520
Speaker 1: how are you. You're on the Sean Hannity Show. I'm

771
00:49:32,560 --> 00:49:35,160
Speaker 1: doing great, Sean, thanks for taking my call. So I

772
00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:37,160
Speaker 1: was seeing your show on Friday and you played a

773
00:49:37,200 --> 00:49:41,560
Speaker 1: clip by Cuomo. He was basically bragging about his states

774
00:49:41,640 --> 00:49:44,480
Speaker 1: numbers for the coronavirus, and I was like, that doesn't

775
00:49:44,480 --> 00:49:46,680
Speaker 1: sound right. So I went to the CDC website and

776
00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:48,719
Speaker 1: you know, Sean, what do you know? He was right?

777
00:49:49,080 --> 00:49:53,840
Speaker 1: And that is because the states numbers for coronavirus's death

778
00:49:54,360 --> 00:49:58,040
Speaker 1: her one hundred thousand are separated from the city of

779
00:49:58,040 --> 00:50:00,239
Speaker 1: New York. And if you combine those numbers to together,

780
00:50:00,760 --> 00:50:03,200
Speaker 1: would it shock you to know that he's either number

781
00:50:03,200 --> 00:50:06,799
Speaker 1: one or number two Union? I mean that just I

782
00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:09,000
Speaker 1: would love for you to follow up. You know, that's

783
00:50:09,040 --> 00:50:10,960
Speaker 1: one thing I had not picked up on. Nobody said,

784
00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:14,720
Speaker 1: but I tell you this effort now to remove him

785
00:50:15,360 --> 00:50:18,920
Speaker 1: is real. This is now taken on a momentum in

786
00:50:18,920 --> 00:50:21,040
Speaker 1: the state of New York. Former Governor of New York

787
00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:26,680
Speaker 1: George Pataki literally floating the idea of removing Cuomo from

788
00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:30,960
Speaker 1: office and saying that you know, his conduct regarding this

789
00:50:31,080 --> 00:50:35,759
Speaker 1: nursing home cover up has been reprehensible and that you know,

790
00:50:35,920 --> 00:50:37,879
Speaker 1: the cover up of nursing home death. And he said,

791
00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:40,080
Speaker 1: I think it would be appropriate to take a hard

792
00:50:40,200 --> 00:50:44,279
Speaker 1: look at the idea of removing Cuomo from office with

793
00:50:44,360 --> 00:50:47,560
Speaker 1: a recall movement. We see it now. It's taken on

794
00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:51,680
Speaker 1: a ton of momentum out in California. But unlike California,

795
00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:55,000
Speaker 1: New York has no legal procedure for recalling elected officials

796
00:50:55,840 --> 00:50:59,760
Speaker 1: in the middle of their term, and a serious effort

797
00:50:59,760 --> 00:51:03,319
Speaker 1: to create such a process was instigated by Patak. He

798
00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:07,080
Speaker 1: pushed for a constitutional amendment years ago. Didn't happen. But

799
00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:10,120
Speaker 1: I mean that there is a lot of anger here.

800
00:51:10,200 --> 00:51:12,400
Speaker 1: Biden now is telling Americans that they're gonna have to

801
00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:15,719
Speaker 1: wear face masks until twenty twenty two. A record high

802
00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:18,520
Speaker 1: number of Oh, go ahead, yes, sir Sean. They're talking about,

803
00:51:18,560 --> 00:51:20,720
Speaker 1: you know, shutting the state of Florida down and I'm

804
00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:24,080
Speaker 1: just laughing, you know, I mean, it's we Our governor

805
00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:26,439
Speaker 1: did everything you should do. He didn't shut the economy down.

806
00:51:26,520 --> 00:51:30,440
Speaker 1: He put lockdowns on nursing homes to protect our elderly.

807
00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:33,040
Speaker 1: It's just it's just one more example where the left

808
00:51:33,160 --> 00:51:37,719
Speaker 1: absolutely abuses statistics and the fact checkers. You know, the

809
00:51:38,000 --> 00:51:40,719
Speaker 1: lady the other day who went viral for going from

810
00:51:40,719 --> 00:51:43,800
Speaker 1: paying sixty dollars for her sons died her first son's

811
00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:46,360
Speaker 1: influence to three hundred dollars on't if you saw that story?

812
00:51:46,600 --> 00:51:48,720
Speaker 1: So I clicked on it, watched the video this woman's

813
00:51:48,719 --> 00:51:51,799
Speaker 1: and tears paying hundreds of dollars more? Would should be

814
00:51:51,800 --> 00:51:55,000
Speaker 1: surprised that Facebook check a fact check that isn't that fascinating?

815
00:51:55,000 --> 00:51:57,799
Speaker 1: And they wanted to correct the fact that Biden had

816
00:51:57,840 --> 00:51:59,879
Speaker 1: not actually rescinded this, He just put it on hold.

817
00:52:00,040 --> 00:52:02,360
Speaker 1: That's really easy to say when you're sitting in a

818
00:52:02,400 --> 00:52:05,680
Speaker 1: Facebook fact check office or wherever you are, and it's

819
00:52:05,800 --> 00:52:08,479
Speaker 1: really easy to say, oh, that's not that bad. Well,

820
00:52:08,800 --> 00:52:10,960
Speaker 1: that's great for you when you don't have to pay

821
00:52:11,120 --> 00:52:14,000
Speaker 1: thousands of dollars a more. Just my point is is

822
00:52:14,400 --> 00:52:19,319
Speaker 1: the amount of bias's I knew it was bad, but

823
00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:21,920
Speaker 1: it's getting unreal. Shot, And I'm grateful for you, and

824
00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:24,879
Speaker 1: I'm thankful for you. I'm thankful to be here every day,

825
00:52:24,880 --> 00:52:27,640
Speaker 1: trust me, and we're on to fire every second of

826
00:52:27,640 --> 00:52:31,040
Speaker 1: every day. All right, Dave, appreciate it by Cuomo. Now,

827
00:52:31,160 --> 00:52:35,080
Speaker 1: this is bipartisan condemnation he's getting, and many calls for

828
00:52:35,120 --> 00:52:39,280
Speaker 1: his resignation. And you have politicos now saying he should

829
00:52:39,320 --> 00:52:43,080
Speaker 1: give his Emmy award back, and even Deblasio no their

830
00:52:43,160 --> 00:52:46,200
Speaker 1: natural enemies, and he's calling for a full accounting of

831
00:52:46,200 --> 00:52:49,200
Speaker 1: all of this. And what a New York business is

832
00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:52,680
Speaker 1: doing well. They're following New York residence and getting the

833
00:52:52,719 --> 00:52:55,040
Speaker 1: hell out of Dodge and moving their businesses down to

834
00:52:55,080 --> 00:52:58,000
Speaker 1: Florida too. Mike and Ohio, Hey Mike, how are you?

835
00:52:58,360 --> 00:53:00,960
Speaker 1: Hey Sean, I'm doing well. How are you doing. I'm good? Sorry,

836
00:53:01,000 --> 00:53:03,239
Speaker 1: what's going on? Yeah, thank you for your time. I

837
00:53:03,320 --> 00:53:06,600
Speaker 1: appreciate it. You know, everybody's running around right now just

838
00:53:06,800 --> 00:53:09,560
Speaker 1: wondering how to use Trump. You know, he's been acquitted

839
00:53:09,640 --> 00:53:13,160
Speaker 1: and such. I've got an idea and I think it's

840
00:53:13,200 --> 00:53:16,000
Speaker 1: pretty strong. I think you run Donald Trump for a

841
00:53:16,080 --> 00:53:19,240
Speaker 1: house seat. You run Donald Trump in a House seat

842
00:53:19,280 --> 00:53:21,840
Speaker 1: in a red district somewhere. I mean, the Democrats have

843
00:53:21,920 --> 00:53:24,839
Speaker 1: been able to get an AOC in there, They've been

844
00:53:24,880 --> 00:53:27,239
Speaker 1: able to get it to leave in there, They've been

845
00:53:27,280 --> 00:53:29,919
Speaker 1: able to get who knows who they wanted in there.

846
00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:32,640
Speaker 1: But you run Donald Trump for a House seat, and

847
00:53:32,840 --> 00:53:36,400
Speaker 1: right now, in today's political climate, it is the best

848
00:53:36,440 --> 00:53:39,600
Speaker 1: place for him to sit. And then you dangle the carrot.

849
00:53:40,040 --> 00:53:43,360
Speaker 1: You dangle the carrot in front of seventy four million

850
00:53:44,040 --> 00:53:47,200
Speaker 1: people that Donald Trump is going to be your next

851
00:53:47,200 --> 00:53:50,640
Speaker 1: Speaker of the House. And if we can win five seats,

852
00:53:50,680 --> 00:53:53,040
Speaker 1: five seats is all we need. Shawn. You know, we

853
00:53:53,120 --> 00:53:55,040
Speaker 1: got to figure out a way to pull seventy four

854
00:53:55,080 --> 00:53:58,359
Speaker 1: million voters together. And the way you pull seventy four

855
00:53:58,719 --> 00:54:02,000
Speaker 1: million voters together you put Donald Trump back on a ballot.

856
00:54:02,560 --> 00:54:05,719
Speaker 1: It's interesting what you're saying. Look, there's no president though,

857
00:54:05,800 --> 00:54:08,839
Speaker 1: that is ever ever going to and I'm not trying

858
00:54:08,840 --> 00:54:11,720
Speaker 1: to be insulting to House members, that is ever going

859
00:54:11,800 --> 00:54:13,960
Speaker 1: to say, Okay, let me run for the House. Now

860
00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:16,799
Speaker 1: that I've run for president and I've been press it's

861
00:54:16,880 --> 00:54:21,160
Speaker 1: not unprecedented, Seahn John Adams was, I've been very aware,

862
00:54:21,239 --> 00:54:24,319
Speaker 1: but it's just I don't. Knowing Donald Trump as well

863
00:54:24,320 --> 00:54:25,719
Speaker 1: as I do, I don't think that would be an

864
00:54:25,719 --> 00:54:28,239
Speaker 1: option for him. Look, he was he was clear, He's

865
00:54:28,280 --> 00:54:32,040
Speaker 1: been very quiet. He put out a statement on Saturday

866
00:54:32,080 --> 00:54:36,440
Speaker 1: after the acquittal, and and it was clear in that

867
00:54:36,520 --> 00:54:39,040
Speaker 1: statement that he has a lot to share in the

868
00:54:39,120 --> 00:54:41,799
Speaker 1: months ahead. And I think he's been given a little

869
00:54:41,800 --> 00:54:45,279
Speaker 1: bit of time for some I think self reflection. I

870
00:54:45,360 --> 00:54:48,160
Speaker 1: think a little time to let all this pass, and

871
00:54:48,239 --> 00:54:50,920
Speaker 1: a little time to you know, watch. It's not going

872
00:54:50,960 --> 00:54:53,960
Speaker 1: to be long until people start saying miss me yet

873
00:54:54,360 --> 00:54:57,040
Speaker 1: hashtag Trump twenty twenty four. I could see that happening

874
00:54:57,040 --> 00:55:00,680
Speaker 1: any day. And because the policies as we've been going

875
00:55:00,719 --> 00:55:03,840
Speaker 1: over Joe Biden are so radically left, that's where we

876
00:55:03,880 --> 00:55:05,479
Speaker 1: have to get rid of. I mean, I'm really worried

877
00:55:05,480 --> 00:55:08,120
Speaker 1: about twenty twenty two. I'm not worried about twenty twenty four.

878
00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:11,680
Speaker 1: I'm worried about twenty twenty two. And to to make

879
00:55:11,680 --> 00:55:15,480
Speaker 1: a move like that, it would be the boldest, strongest. Listen.

880
00:55:15,520 --> 00:55:19,239
Speaker 1: I love I love creative thinking. It's it's pretty, it's

881
00:55:19,239 --> 00:55:23,920
Speaker 1: pretty genius and innovative on your party. I give you

882
00:55:23,920 --> 00:55:26,000
Speaker 1: a lot of credit. I do because you're thinking through it.

883
00:55:26,360 --> 00:55:28,439
Speaker 1: I don't think that would happen. I think he's either

884
00:55:28,520 --> 00:55:30,920
Speaker 1: going to make a decision run again or not run again,

885
00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:33,680
Speaker 1: and not when that decision comes, I don't know. It's

886
00:55:33,760 --> 00:55:36,960
Speaker 1: from the GOP standpoint, why wouldn't you put your best

887
00:55:37,000 --> 00:55:40,440
Speaker 1: player on the field for a must win game. A

888
00:55:40,600 --> 00:55:42,759
Speaker 1: must win game is in twenty two we have to

889
00:55:42,760 --> 00:55:46,279
Speaker 1: win the House and or the Senate, preferably both. If

890
00:55:46,280 --> 00:55:49,680
Speaker 1: he gets up and breaths on any given day, the

891
00:55:49,719 --> 00:55:52,919
Speaker 1: media is going to cover it that he I think

892
00:55:52,960 --> 00:55:56,640
Speaker 1: he is already the most powerful force today. He is

893
00:55:56,960 --> 00:56:00,400
Speaker 1: in the Republican Party, and I think he'll main so,

894
00:56:00,640 --> 00:56:04,000
Speaker 1: and he has indicated in the past that he's focused

895
00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:06,279
Speaker 1: on twenty twenty two, and I think we'll probably be

896
00:56:06,320 --> 00:56:09,360
Speaker 1: out helping a lot of people in a lot of ways. Again,

897
00:56:09,360 --> 00:56:11,840
Speaker 1: I don't have a crystal ball, can't say, but I

898
00:56:11,920 --> 00:56:16,439
Speaker 1: think that's what his intention is. And honestly, after four

899
00:56:16,600 --> 00:56:19,840
Speaker 1: or five never ending years of running, you know, a

900
00:56:19,960 --> 00:56:22,520
Speaker 1: thousand miles an hour every second of every day, I

901
00:56:22,520 --> 00:56:26,719
Speaker 1: think he probably is taking a well deserved break. And

902
00:56:27,360 --> 00:56:29,319
Speaker 1: you know, I wouldn't I wouldn't doubt at some point

903
00:56:29,320 --> 00:56:31,839
Speaker 1: a book comes out and he tells his story when

904
00:56:31,840 --> 00:56:33,640
Speaker 1: he's ready, you'll do it. I mean, it's kind of

905
00:56:33,719 --> 00:56:37,200
Speaker 1: very uncharacteristic to him to be quiet this long. And

906
00:56:37,400 --> 00:56:39,160
Speaker 1: I'm sure when he does talk, he's gonna have a

907
00:56:39,200 --> 00:56:42,000
Speaker 1: lot to say, knowing him as well as I do.

908
00:56:42,280 --> 00:56:45,560
Speaker 1: All right, back to our busy telephones. Let's say, Hi

909
00:56:45,600 --> 00:56:47,880
Speaker 1: Henry in New Jersey. We got a minute Henry for you.

910
00:56:49,200 --> 00:56:54,799
Speaker 1: Hi Sean. First thing, God bless you, Rush, Thank you

911
00:56:55,800 --> 00:56:59,400
Speaker 1: all you guys are really working for us this country,

912
00:56:59,400 --> 00:57:07,440
Speaker 1: and we really appreciate it. And prayers especially for Russian Trump. Anyway, anyway,

913
00:57:08,280 --> 00:57:10,640
Speaker 1: I could talk to you for an hour if I mean,

914
00:57:10,640 --> 00:57:13,759
Speaker 1: but I know, I know, I can't. Um. You know,

915
00:57:13,840 --> 00:57:17,080
Speaker 1: I've been interested interested in politics for over fifty years.

916
00:57:17,560 --> 00:57:20,000
Speaker 1: I'm your age, but my dad got me into politics.

917
00:57:21,880 --> 00:57:24,720
Speaker 1: The Republicans have never done what they've said they were

918
00:57:24,720 --> 00:57:28,040
Speaker 1: going to do in all those fifty years. Trump's the

919
00:57:28,080 --> 00:57:31,560
Speaker 1: only one that has. And uh, you know, I don't

920
00:57:31,600 --> 00:57:36,360
Speaker 1: know whether the Republicans are cowards, they're stupid, or they're

921
00:57:36,720 --> 00:57:40,800
Speaker 1: complicit in all this because uh, you know, Trump showed

922
00:57:40,800 --> 00:57:42,560
Speaker 1: them how to fight and they just don't know how.

923
00:57:43,040 --> 00:57:46,000
Speaker 1: They still don't know how. They still don't know how.

924
00:57:46,080 --> 00:57:49,200
Speaker 1: I agree with you one hundred percent. They don't know how.

925
00:57:50,680 --> 00:57:53,200
Speaker 1: I'll tell you. There's another part of it too. It's

926
00:57:53,240 --> 00:57:57,560
Speaker 1: hard to fight. And there's a side of being in

927
00:57:57,560 --> 00:58:00,000
Speaker 1: the public eye that I've lived through my whole career.

928
00:58:00,800 --> 00:58:04,800
Speaker 1: I promise you that's not pleasant. And having a cancel

929
00:58:04,880 --> 00:58:08,840
Speaker 1: culture that has existed pretty much all my career. Um,

930
00:58:09,240 --> 00:58:12,360
Speaker 1: that is real, being under attack, under fire all the time.

931
00:58:12,400 --> 00:58:14,120
Speaker 1: It's you know, a lot of people don't have the

932
00:58:14,160 --> 00:58:18,720
Speaker 1: stomach for this, and I do, and Donald Trump does,

933
00:58:18,840 --> 00:58:21,680
Speaker 1: and there are you know, notice how few senators ever

934
00:58:21,720 --> 00:58:23,959
Speaker 1: go on television. Do you think that we don't reach

935
00:58:23,960 --> 00:58:27,040
Speaker 1: out to them? We do, They don't want to come.

936
00:58:27,920 --> 00:58:30,480
Speaker 1: They there, and there's a there's a lot of timidity

937
00:58:30,520 --> 00:58:33,240
Speaker 1: in them. There's a lot of fear in them. Doesn't

938
00:58:33,280 --> 00:58:34,880
Speaker 1: mean some of them are in good people. It just

939
00:58:34,920 --> 00:58:37,080
Speaker 1: means that it is what it is. They're not there

940
00:58:37,120 --> 00:58:40,520
Speaker 1: to fight. Um that you heard the montage that went

941
00:58:40,520 --> 00:58:42,960
Speaker 1: on ten minutes long in the trial. Democrats fight fight,

942
00:58:43,040 --> 00:58:45,120
Speaker 1: fight fight like hell, Fight like hell, Fight like hell,

943
00:58:45,200 --> 00:58:48,840
Speaker 1: fight fight, fight fight like hell. Fight you. They seem

944
00:58:48,960 --> 00:58:51,640
Speaker 1: to have more of a willingness to go in, go

945
00:58:51,720 --> 00:58:55,880
Speaker 1: in hard and Republicans, you know, lay back, and it's

946
00:58:55,960 --> 00:58:58,439
Speaker 1: unfortunate because the only way you're gonna get things done

947
00:58:58,520 --> 00:59:01,520
Speaker 1: is you've you've got to convince people that your ideas

948
00:59:01,600 --> 00:59:07,480
Speaker 1: will work. I believe conservatism, lower taxes, energy independence, less bureaucracy,

949
00:59:07,960 --> 00:59:14,200
Speaker 1: secure boarders, better schools, law and order, safety, security, constitutional justices,

950
00:59:15,200 --> 00:59:17,960
Speaker 1: free and fair trade, and piece through strength as a

951
00:59:18,040 --> 00:59:21,760
Speaker 1: winning agenda. I don't think it's hard. Go out and

952
00:59:21,840 --> 00:59:24,640
Speaker 1: tell the American people what you're gonna do, then do it,

953
00:59:24,680 --> 00:59:27,080
Speaker 1: and then run again saying I got I kept my word.

954
00:59:28,000 --> 00:59:31,040
Speaker 1: That's how you know politicians should be. But it seems

955
00:59:31,040 --> 00:59:33,600
Speaker 1: they make it a lot more complicated. Anyway, my friend,

956
00:59:33,640 --> 00:59:35,760
Speaker 1: thank you for a good call. When we come back,

957
00:59:35,840 --> 00:59:38,120
Speaker 1: David Shown, he's the one that laid out all of

958
00:59:38,160 --> 00:59:41,280
Speaker 1: that videotape in the trunk defense on Friday, he will

959
00:59:41,360 --> 00:59:44,200
Speaker 1: join us and explain all coming up as we continue

960
00:59:44,240 --> 00:59:47,200
Speaker 1: straight ahead, all right, news round up in information overload

961
00:59:47,200 --> 00:59:49,880
Speaker 1: hour eight hundred and nine four one sewn if you

962
00:59:49,920 --> 00:59:51,400
Speaker 1: want to be a part of the program. Now, we

963
00:59:51,440 --> 00:59:56,640
Speaker 1: have spoken with the attorneys that got the acquittal over

964
00:59:56,640 --> 01:00:01,760
Speaker 1: the weekend, and this latest impeachment shift shows charade which

965
01:00:01,760 --> 01:00:03,960
Speaker 1: we all told you from the beginning. It was a

966
01:00:04,000 --> 01:00:08,720
Speaker 1: predetermined outcome. A friend of this program, our friend David shown,

967
01:00:10,160 --> 01:00:16,760
Speaker 1: literally whacked the Democrats with incredible montages for lack of evidence.

968
01:00:17,120 --> 01:00:21,120
Speaker 1: And you know, one of the big issues here is, well,

969
01:00:21,160 --> 01:00:24,040
Speaker 1: if the FBI knew, as now we know from court

970
01:00:24,120 --> 01:00:28,720
Speaker 1: documents and FBI investigators and Congress Homan Acacio Cortez and

971
01:00:29,200 --> 01:00:31,920
Speaker 1: even the mob the media as we have been telling

972
01:00:31,960 --> 01:00:34,960
Speaker 1: you reporting that oh yeah, they this was all planned

973
01:00:35,000 --> 01:00:39,400
Speaker 1: in advance. Here's what David played last at the end

974
01:00:39,440 --> 01:00:42,600
Speaker 1: of last week. The house managers, facing a significant lack

975
01:00:42,680 --> 01:00:46,240
Speaker 1: of evidence, turned off into press reports and rumors during

976
01:00:46,280 --> 01:00:50,800
Speaker 1: these proceedings, claims that would never meet the evidentiary standards

977
01:00:50,840 --> 01:00:54,680
Speaker 1: of any court. In fact, they even relied on the

978
01:00:54,720 --> 01:00:59,720
Speaker 1: words of Andrew Feinberg, a reporter who recently worked for Sputnik,

979
01:01:00,240 --> 01:01:04,600
Speaker 1: the Russian propaganda outlet. You saw it posted. By the way,

980
01:01:04,840 --> 01:01:08,280
Speaker 1: the report they cited was completely refuted. The frequency with

981
01:01:08,280 --> 01:01:12,280
Speaker 1: which house managers relied on unproven media reports shocked me

982
01:01:12,880 --> 01:01:15,760
Speaker 1: as I sat in this chamber and listened to this.

983
01:01:16,560 --> 01:01:18,840
Speaker 1: And there's a lot that we don't know yet about

984
01:01:18,880 --> 01:01:22,360
Speaker 1: what happened that day. According to those around him at

985
01:01:22,400 --> 01:01:27,880
Speaker 1: the time reportedly responded Trump, reportedly, reports across all major

986
01:01:27,960 --> 01:01:33,560
Speaker 1: media outlets major news networks, including Fox News reported reported

987
01:01:33,960 --> 01:01:40,280
Speaker 1: reportedly summoned reportedly reportedly not accidental, according to reports, President

988
01:01:40,320 --> 01:01:43,800
Speaker 1: Trump was reportedly who reportedly spoke to the Guard and

989
01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:49,440
Speaker 1: was widely reported media reports. According to reports, reported reportedly

990
01:01:50,160 --> 01:01:53,760
Speaker 1: as any trial lawyer will tell you reportedly is a

991
01:01:53,840 --> 01:01:59,160
Speaker 1: euphemism for I have no real evidence. Reportedly, there's not

992
01:01:59,240 --> 01:02:02,960
Speaker 1: the standard in any American setting in which any semblance

993
01:02:03,760 --> 01:02:08,960
Speaker 1: of due process is afforded, and accused reportedly isn't even

994
01:02:09,240 --> 01:02:13,760
Speaker 1: here is some circumstantial evidence. It is exactly as reliable

995
01:02:13,800 --> 01:02:17,320
Speaker 1: as I googled this for you. And if you're worried

996
01:02:17,680 --> 01:02:21,120
Speaker 1: you might ever be tried based on this type of evidence,

997
01:02:21,840 --> 01:02:25,280
Speaker 1: don't be. You get more due process than this when

998
01:02:25,280 --> 01:02:29,240
Speaker 1: you fight a parking ticket. Wow. Powerful statement. David Shone,

999
01:02:29,800 --> 01:02:35,960
Speaker 1: civil rights attorney who joins us now. Honestly, as soon

1000
01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:38,240
Speaker 1: as you have finished, I don't know which ones I

1001
01:02:38,320 --> 01:02:41,040
Speaker 1: like bet are like the ten minute fight fight Fight, Fight, Fight, Fight,

1002
01:02:41,080 --> 01:02:44,440
Speaker 1: fight fight like Hell, filight hell fightlight Hell, fight like Hell,

1003
01:02:44,880 --> 01:02:51,080
Speaker 1: or the Democrat's own insurrectionist incitement language themselves or if

1004
01:02:51,080 --> 01:02:53,800
Speaker 1: I like this one. But this is why David, you

1005
01:02:53,840 --> 01:02:58,000
Speaker 1: don't do snap impeachments reportedly reportedly, this is why you

1006
01:02:58,040 --> 01:03:02,880
Speaker 1: don't do snap impeachments for reportedly. Well, you're exactly right.

1007
01:03:03,280 --> 01:03:05,480
Speaker 1: But the first point I want to make is you've

1008
01:03:05,480 --> 01:03:08,360
Speaker 1: paide me a supreme compliment because I learned this from

1009
01:03:08,400 --> 01:03:11,720
Speaker 1: the master from studying your shows to do this so effectively,

1010
01:03:12,000 --> 01:03:15,040
Speaker 1: And it's not a gimmick. It's using people's own words

1011
01:03:15,080 --> 01:03:18,000
Speaker 1: to demonstrate exactly what the facts are. And people seem

1012
01:03:18,040 --> 01:03:21,080
Speaker 1: to get it better when they see it in living color. Yeah,

1013
01:03:21,280 --> 01:03:23,120
Speaker 1: this is a real part of the snap in judgment

1014
01:03:23,800 --> 01:03:27,840
Speaker 1: snap impeachment. Can you imagine the idea of impeaching a

1015
01:03:27,960 --> 01:03:31,760
Speaker 1: president of the United States based on this? Guy Feinberg

1016
01:03:31,920 --> 01:03:36,040
Speaker 1: or media sources and the house managers told the Senate

1017
01:03:36,240 --> 01:03:38,560
Speaker 1: that we just don't have all the facts, while at

1018
01:03:38,600 --> 01:03:41,160
Speaker 1: the same time Jamie Raskin told them this is a

1019
01:03:41,240 --> 01:03:44,720
Speaker 1: very fact intensive investigation. You need to consider all the facts.

1020
01:03:44,920 --> 01:03:50,480
Speaker 1: That is a horrible abuse of this politicized, weaponized impeachment process.

1021
01:03:50,680 --> 01:03:53,120
Speaker 1: Never should have happened. The American people deserve much better

1022
01:03:53,200 --> 01:03:55,800
Speaker 1: than this. Yeah, and this is the frustrating part of

1023
01:03:55,840 --> 01:03:59,720
Speaker 1: all of this, never mind, I could not believe Mitch

1024
01:03:59,800 --> 01:04:03,400
Speaker 1: mc connell's comments and take on this and the idea

1025
01:04:03,560 --> 01:04:05,920
Speaker 1: that and this was I thought brought out by you

1026
01:04:06,000 --> 01:04:09,880
Speaker 1: as well. If this is going to be the Democratic

1027
01:04:09,960 --> 01:04:14,200
Speaker 1: Party standard, you can't have two standards, David. You got

1028
01:04:14,200 --> 01:04:18,440
Speaker 1: to hold every person in elected office accountable. They've got

1029
01:04:18,440 --> 01:04:21,040
Speaker 1: to be held to the same exact standard. Now, if

1030
01:04:21,040 --> 01:04:24,040
Speaker 1: you mentioned Maxie Waters, or you mentioned Chuck Schumer, you

1031
01:04:24,080 --> 01:04:28,000
Speaker 1: mentioned Kamala Harris, and I can keep going. They would

1032
01:04:28,000 --> 01:04:30,960
Speaker 1: all they would all be impeached and put on trial

1033
01:04:31,120 --> 01:04:34,320
Speaker 1: based on their own standards. And that too. You made

1034
01:04:34,520 --> 01:04:37,640
Speaker 1: a great point approving well listen, you know there was

1035
01:04:37,640 --> 01:04:39,720
Speaker 1: a question during the I wasn't able to tend to

1036
01:04:39,840 --> 01:04:42,600
Speaker 1: question answer period because of my sabbath observance, but I

1037
01:04:42,640 --> 01:04:44,400
Speaker 1: was able to hear one or two of the questions

1038
01:04:44,600 --> 01:04:46,760
Speaker 1: before the sabbath began, and one of them was a

1039
01:04:46,840 --> 01:04:50,440
Speaker 1: question Ted Cruz and others asked, and that was whether

1040
01:04:50,680 --> 01:04:54,680
Speaker 1: it was thought to encourage incitement when a public official

1041
01:04:54,760 --> 01:04:57,440
Speaker 1: bails out the rioters. I think the answer that our

1042
01:04:57,480 --> 01:05:00,120
Speaker 1: side gave was just yes, but that wasn't adequate. The

1043
01:05:00,200 --> 01:05:02,880
Speaker 1: real answer to that is, you know what Donald Trump

1044
01:05:02,960 --> 01:05:05,640
Speaker 1: has been a law and order president for the entire

1045
01:05:05,800 --> 01:05:08,680
Speaker 1: term he was in office. He gave a consistent message

1046
01:05:08,680 --> 01:05:10,960
Speaker 1: for law and order all the way through. When you

1047
01:05:11,040 --> 01:05:15,600
Speaker 1: have Democratic members of the Senate, Congress, House, other public

1048
01:05:15,600 --> 01:05:18,920
Speaker 1: officials on the Democratic side appearing to endorse or support

1049
01:05:19,200 --> 01:05:25,880
Speaker 1: or justify or otherwise bailout rioters and that sort of thing,

1050
01:05:26,040 --> 01:05:28,480
Speaker 1: it sends a very different message. And the message there

1051
01:05:28,640 --> 01:05:31,760
Speaker 1: is violence can be okay. That can be the message

1052
01:05:31,880 --> 01:05:36,760
Speaker 1: violence cannot be okay in political advocacy, well agreed. And

1053
01:05:36,880 --> 01:05:39,800
Speaker 1: you know what that was where conservatives were consistent and

1054
01:05:39,920 --> 01:05:43,680
Speaker 1: Democrats weren't because all summer long, as the rioting went

1055
01:05:43,720 --> 01:05:47,720
Speaker 1: forward in this country and major cities, day after day,

1056
01:05:48,000 --> 01:05:52,040
Speaker 1: night after night, there was not only was there not

1057
01:05:52,240 --> 01:05:57,280
Speaker 1: widespread condemnation, the silence was deafening. And then Kamala Harris,

1058
01:05:57,280 --> 01:06:00,640
Speaker 1: they're not going to stop. They shouldn't stop. We shouldn't stop.

1059
01:06:00,760 --> 01:06:04,320
Speaker 1: You you'd take note on both levels, you beware, I'm

1060
01:06:04,400 --> 01:06:07,000
Speaker 1: like okay. And then fund, you know, then supporting a

1061
01:06:07,080 --> 01:06:09,680
Speaker 1: bell fund to get rioters out of jail so they

1062
01:06:09,720 --> 01:06:16,560
Speaker 1: could rejoin their comrades in the insurrectionist activities. If we

1063
01:06:16,600 --> 01:06:20,160
Speaker 1: applied the standards to Kamala Harris, would she be impeached

1064
01:06:20,200 --> 01:06:22,840
Speaker 1: and would she be put on trial? Sure, if you

1065
01:06:22,920 --> 01:06:25,560
Speaker 1: applied the same standard, I mean, you'd have more than

1066
01:06:25,600 --> 01:06:30,040
Speaker 1: a handful of folks on the Democratic side being impeached.

1067
01:06:30,160 --> 01:06:32,080
Speaker 1: And I don't think that's the right answer either, But

1068
01:06:32,120 --> 01:06:35,280
Speaker 1: that's it just illustrates also why this there never should

1069
01:06:35,280 --> 01:06:39,000
Speaker 1: have been this impeachment proceeding. With all due respect, I mean,

1070
01:06:39,040 --> 01:06:42,840
Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell was way at a line, way off base,

1071
01:06:43,080 --> 01:06:45,480
Speaker 1: and what he said, there's no possible way anyone could

1072
01:06:45,520 --> 01:06:48,360
Speaker 1: come to that conclusion, to the conclusion that this speech

1073
01:06:48,440 --> 01:06:50,960
Speaker 1: or any other conduct by the president incited a riot.

1074
01:06:51,040 --> 01:06:53,320
Speaker 1: Number one because it's not true. And number two because

1075
01:06:53,360 --> 01:06:56,120
Speaker 1: at a very minimum they've acknowledged they don't have the facts.

1076
01:06:56,200 --> 01:06:58,120
Speaker 1: The facts are just starting to come out about a

1077
01:06:58,120 --> 01:07:03,040
Speaker 1: completely separate agenda planning by very bad, vicious criminals. You

1078
01:07:03,160 --> 01:07:07,000
Speaker 1: took on Jamie Raskin from the Democratic House managers that

1079
01:07:07,040 --> 01:07:12,160
Speaker 1: were making their case and the Senate floor, and Jamie Raskin,

1080
01:07:12,400 --> 01:07:17,080
Speaker 1: interestingly himself, on his third day in Congress, stood up

1081
01:07:17,120 --> 01:07:22,360
Speaker 1: to oppose Donald Trump's election. Oh he wanted his own audit.

1082
01:07:22,560 --> 01:07:26,000
Speaker 1: Pretty interesting hypocrisy, but also you hit him on his

1083
01:07:26,600 --> 01:07:29,160
Speaker 1: you know, for staging this photo shoot with the New

1084
01:07:29,240 --> 01:07:33,480
Speaker 1: York Times and the manufactured tweets. Let's play it. We

1085
01:07:33,560 --> 01:07:36,760
Speaker 1: have reason to believe that the house managers created false

1086
01:07:36,840 --> 01:07:40,240
Speaker 1: representations of tweets, and the lack of due process means

1087
01:07:40,600 --> 01:07:45,120
Speaker 1: there was no opportunity to review or verify the accuracy.

1088
01:07:45,600 --> 01:07:49,560
Speaker 1: Consider these facts. The house managers, proud of their work

1089
01:07:49,560 --> 01:07:54,160
Speaker 1: on the Snap impeachment, staged numerous photo shoots of their preparations.

1090
01:07:55,080 --> 01:07:57,480
Speaker 1: In one of those, Manager Raskin is scene here at

1091
01:07:57,480 --> 01:08:01,760
Speaker 1: his desk reviewing two tweets side by side. The image

1092
01:08:01,800 --> 01:08:04,560
Speaker 1: on his screen claims to show that President Trump had

1093
01:08:04,600 --> 01:08:08,480
Speaker 1: retweeted one of those tweets. Now, members of the Senate,

1094
01:08:08,880 --> 01:08:13,160
Speaker 1: let's look closely at this screen, because obviously Manager Raskin

1095
01:08:13,240 --> 01:08:16,320
Speaker 1: considered it important enough that he invited the New York

1096
01:08:16,320 --> 01:08:19,400
Speaker 1: Times to watch him watching it. Now, what's wrong with

1097
01:08:19,439 --> 01:08:23,800
Speaker 1: this image? Actually, there are three things very wrong with it.

1098
01:08:24,439 --> 01:08:26,120
Speaker 1: Look at the date on the very bottom of the

1099
01:08:26,160 --> 01:08:29,759
Speaker 1: screen a Manager Raskin's computer screen. When we zoom into

1100
01:08:29,760 --> 01:08:35,400
Speaker 1: the picture, the date that appears is January third, two thousand, twenty,

1101
01:08:36,400 --> 01:08:41,320
Speaker 1: not two twenty one. Why is that date wrong? Because

1102
01:08:41,360 --> 01:08:43,519
Speaker 1: this is not a real screenshot that he's working with.

1103
01:08:43,880 --> 01:08:46,960
Speaker 1: This is a recreation of a tweet, and you got

1104
01:08:46,960 --> 01:08:50,880
Speaker 1: the date wrong when you manufactured this graphic. You did

1105
01:08:50,920 --> 01:08:53,600
Speaker 1: not disclose that this is a manufactured graphic and not

1106
01:08:53,680 --> 01:08:56,519
Speaker 1: a real screenshot of a tweet. Not to be fair,

1107
01:08:56,840 --> 01:08:59,519
Speaker 1: the house managers caught this error before showing the image

1108
01:08:59,560 --> 01:09:02,360
Speaker 1: on the Senate floor, so you never saw it when

1109
01:09:02,360 --> 01:09:06,479
Speaker 1: it was presented to you. Wow. I mean, how do

1110
01:09:06,560 --> 01:09:10,639
Speaker 1: you manufacture evidence like that? I mean it all started

1111
01:09:10,680 --> 01:09:14,240
Speaker 1: out where the presiding judge in the case said already

1112
01:09:14,280 --> 01:09:20,200
Speaker 1: predetermined and stated publicly his vote for guilt. That wouldn't happen.

1113
01:09:20,920 --> 01:09:27,200
Speaker 1: You talked about evidentiary standards, you know, admissibility of evidence.

1114
01:09:27,280 --> 01:09:29,920
Speaker 1: None of this would be admissible in any any real

1115
01:09:30,000 --> 01:09:32,840
Speaker 1: court of law, would it? David? Absolutely not? And I

1116
01:09:32,840 --> 01:09:35,040
Speaker 1: think the first point you made there is probably the

1117
01:09:35,080 --> 01:09:39,240
Speaker 1: most important. Can you any American imagine facing any proceeding

1118
01:09:39,240 --> 01:09:41,360
Speaker 1: in which your life or liberty is an issue? And

1119
01:09:41,520 --> 01:09:44,120
Speaker 1: here what was at stake was trying an effort to

1120
01:09:44,200 --> 01:09:47,360
Speaker 1: bar President Trump from ever running for office again and

1121
01:09:47,439 --> 01:09:51,519
Speaker 1: to disenfranchise over seventy four million voters who voted for

1122
01:09:51,600 --> 01:09:53,840
Speaker 1: him and would want to cast their vote again. And

1123
01:09:54,240 --> 01:09:56,439
Speaker 1: for these proceedings, they had a judge of the fine

1124
01:09:56,479 --> 01:09:59,160
Speaker 1: fellow this center Lais and a fine man that spoke

1125
01:09:59,160 --> 01:10:04,320
Speaker 1: to him during but he issued a press statement, but listen.

1126
01:10:04,439 --> 01:10:07,240
Speaker 1: He on January twenty seventh, he entered an oath, and

1127
01:10:07,320 --> 01:10:10,920
Speaker 1: the oath said he swears to be impartial in his

1128
01:10:11,000 --> 01:10:13,920
Speaker 1: consideration of these issues. Except two weeks earlier, in the

1129
01:10:13,960 --> 01:10:16,960
Speaker 1: thirteenth of January, he issued a press release in which

1130
01:10:16,960 --> 01:10:19,760
Speaker 1: he said President Trump is definitely guilty, and he's going

1131
01:10:19,800 --> 01:10:22,479
Speaker 1: to vote to convict, and everybody else, including Mitch McConnell

1132
01:10:22,479 --> 01:10:25,360
Speaker 1: and the Republicans, have to vote to convict. Then, he said,

1133
01:10:25,360 --> 01:10:28,080
Speaker 1: as a judge in the case, who has all decisions

1134
01:10:28,080 --> 01:10:30,720
Speaker 1: on evidence that comes in, and as a juror who

1135
01:10:30,800 --> 01:10:34,840
Speaker 1: has a vote on an acquittal or conviction, that doesn't

1136
01:10:34,880 --> 01:10:37,840
Speaker 1: happen in this country. You know, I watch all of

1137
01:10:37,880 --> 01:10:43,320
Speaker 1: this and I just cannot believe that this is our country. Yeah,

1138
01:10:43,360 --> 01:10:46,559
Speaker 1: I can. I cannot believe that we've descended into a

1139
01:10:46,680 --> 01:10:49,960
Speaker 1: process where there's no due process, there's no no assumption

1140
01:10:50,160 --> 01:10:56,920
Speaker 1: presumption of innocence. There there is not equal application of standards,

1141
01:10:56,920 --> 01:11:00,439
Speaker 1: like there's no equal application of laws. I mean, you know,

1142
01:11:00,479 --> 01:11:03,240
Speaker 1: you've been all over with us this whole issue of

1143
01:11:03,760 --> 01:11:06,600
Speaker 1: the deep state, and you know, the biggest abuse of

1144
01:11:06,640 --> 01:11:11,320
Speaker 1: power corruption scandal. Nobody's paying attention today to the fact

1145
01:11:11,320 --> 01:11:16,640
Speaker 1: that in a January twenty seventh email to James Clapper,

1146
01:11:17,680 --> 01:11:21,599
Speaker 1: the Intelligence chief, the former FBI Director Comy, you know,

1147
01:11:22,080 --> 01:11:25,639
Speaker 1: the very day he signed Defies a surveillance warrant saying

1148
01:11:25,640 --> 01:11:30,759
Speaker 1: everything's verified, and Christopher Steele's dossier remember Andrew McCabe, no dossier,

1149
01:11:31,000 --> 01:11:36,880
Speaker 1: no FIES application, and writing Obama's outgoing intelligence community chief,

1150
01:11:37,240 --> 01:11:40,560
Speaker 1: a very different assessment of the British spies intelligence on

1151
01:11:40,680 --> 01:11:44,719
Speaker 1: Russia collusion. We're not able to sufficiently corroborate the reporting

1152
01:11:44,760 --> 01:11:48,280
Speaker 1: he wrote in his email to James Clapper that was

1153
01:11:48,360 --> 01:11:51,879
Speaker 1: declassified and made public. I mean, this is the smoking

1154
01:11:51,960 --> 01:11:55,960
Speaker 1: gun email. But then he presented it not only had

1155
01:11:56,000 --> 01:12:00,479
Speaker 1: previously signed DEFIES application, signed one that day and signed

1156
01:12:00,479 --> 01:12:04,280
Speaker 1: a third one knowing that they couldn't independently corroborate it.

1157
01:12:04,320 --> 01:12:07,080
Speaker 1: And now we know that Steele denied it was its

1158
01:12:07,200 --> 01:12:11,519
Speaker 1: voracity and the subsource denied its voracity. That's America. Yeah,

1159
01:12:11,840 --> 01:12:14,320
Speaker 1: you know, I'm glad you do the parallel by the way,

1160
01:12:14,360 --> 01:12:16,320
Speaker 1: because I do think there is one here. My first

1161
01:12:16,320 --> 01:12:19,400
Speaker 1: reaction was the Democrats just seemed to be tone deaf.

1162
01:12:19,439 --> 01:12:21,680
Speaker 1: You had a Moller commission in which the head of

1163
01:12:21,720 --> 01:12:24,680
Speaker 1: the commission was a partner in the law firm that

1164
01:12:24,720 --> 01:12:28,280
Speaker 1: represents Hillary Clinton. He put on there the most bias

1165
01:12:28,320 --> 01:12:31,680
Speaker 1: of folks who politically biased folks. He put on his

1166
01:12:31,720 --> 01:12:35,240
Speaker 1: commission a lawyer who personally represented Hillary Clinton in her

1167
01:12:35,280 --> 01:12:38,479
Speaker 1: email scandal, and of all things, an investigations implicating the

1168
01:12:38,520 --> 01:12:41,120
Speaker 1: president of the United States. They put Andrew Weissman as

1169
01:12:41,120 --> 01:12:44,439
Speaker 1: the lead investigator, who's simply, in my view, the most

1170
01:12:44,479 --> 01:12:48,120
Speaker 1: ethically bankrupt prosecutor I have ever encountered in thirty six years.

1171
01:12:48,280 --> 01:12:51,599
Speaker 1: That's the thought. What can you expect the American people

1172
01:12:51,640 --> 01:12:54,040
Speaker 1: to believe from a commission like that? Now you see

1173
01:12:54,080 --> 01:12:57,800
Speaker 1: this impeachment, no due process. You tell us you don't

1174
01:12:57,800 --> 01:12:59,880
Speaker 1: have the facts, but they should convictim and borrow from

1175
01:12:59,880 --> 01:13:02,320
Speaker 1: all because anyway, but it goes beyond being tone deaf.

1176
01:13:02,439 --> 01:13:06,320
Speaker 1: It goes it's an utter disregard for the American public. Frankly,

1177
01:13:06,560 --> 01:13:09,600
Speaker 1: it's saying, we don't need you to worry about integrity

1178
01:13:09,840 --> 01:13:12,160
Speaker 1: of the process or anything like that. Just listen to

1179
01:13:12,200 --> 01:13:14,880
Speaker 1: what we tell you. We're going to be vicious enemies

1180
01:13:14,880 --> 01:13:17,400
Speaker 1: of Donald Trump, and we're going to use your constitution

1181
01:13:17,520 --> 01:13:20,639
Speaker 1: and your process to go after your president. But don't

1182
01:13:20,640 --> 01:13:23,240
Speaker 1: worry about it. Just trust us. We're doing what's best

1183
01:13:23,280 --> 01:13:26,559
Speaker 1: for you. That's a horrible, un American approach. Oh, good

1184
01:13:26,600 --> 01:13:28,920
Speaker 1: job to you, Good job to everyone on your team.

1185
01:13:29,479 --> 01:13:30,880
Speaker 1: And I know you didn't even have a lot of

1186
01:13:30,920 --> 01:13:33,960
Speaker 1: time to prepare. I mean, unbelievable. Thank you, David shown

1187
01:13:34,040 --> 01:13:36,320
Speaker 1: as always eight hundred and nine four one sean our

1188
01:13:36,360 --> 01:13:38,760
Speaker 1: toll free telephone number, all right, twenty five nounce at

1189
01:13:38,760 --> 01:13:40,360
Speaker 1: the top of the hour, eight hundred and nine four

1190
01:13:40,400 --> 01:13:42,719
Speaker 1: one sewn. You want to be a part of the program,

1191
01:13:43,240 --> 01:13:46,639
Speaker 1: Lindsey Graham said a lot on Fox News Sunday this weekend.

1192
01:13:47,240 --> 01:13:50,240
Speaker 1: Number one, you know, if we did a poll, ask

1193
01:13:50,280 --> 01:13:53,599
Speaker 1: yourself and the poll was okay, do you support Mitch

1194
01:13:53,720 --> 01:14:01,240
Speaker 1: McConnell's version of republican Ism old established wing or do

1195
01:14:01,280 --> 01:14:06,240
Speaker 1: you support Donald Trump's America First agenda? If a poll

1196
01:14:06,400 --> 01:14:09,719
Speaker 1: was taken today, what would the number be? Eighty five

1197
01:14:09,920 --> 01:14:15,000
Speaker 1: ninety percent Trump maga America First. I mean, it's it's unbelievable.

1198
01:14:15,120 --> 01:14:19,520
Speaker 1: It's that the Republican Party just has this. The establishment

1199
01:14:19,600 --> 01:14:23,080
Speaker 1: wing of the Republican Party just never seems to learn

1200
01:14:23,520 --> 01:14:27,559
Speaker 1: what it is that the American people want, and what

1201
01:14:27,600 --> 01:14:31,479
Speaker 1: the American people want is not complicated. We talked all

1202
01:14:31,520 --> 01:14:34,760
Speaker 1: about it last week. And the other thing about Republicans

1203
01:14:34,880 --> 01:14:37,200
Speaker 1: is they never seem to know how to fight. Where

1204
01:14:37,520 --> 01:14:41,679
Speaker 1: where were most of these Republicans during this whole deep

1205
01:14:41,800 --> 01:14:48,599
Speaker 1: state FISA application, FISA abuse, premeditated fraud, Russia collusion, lies,

1206
01:14:48,760 --> 01:14:52,920
Speaker 1: Ukrainian hoaxes. Where were they? How come with all of

1207
01:14:52,960 --> 01:14:58,040
Speaker 1: the tape that we have from let's see Schumer, Pelosi,

1208
01:14:58,920 --> 01:15:03,439
Speaker 1: Joe Biden, Maamala Harris, all the tape we have Maxie Waters,

1209
01:15:03,680 --> 01:15:08,000
Speaker 1: where are they ever holding Democrats to the same standards

1210
01:15:08,040 --> 01:15:13,080
Speaker 1: that they're holding Republicans too? Why don't they ever do that? Anyway?

1211
01:15:13,160 --> 01:15:16,479
Speaker 1: Here's Lindsay Grammy was on Fox News Sunday talking about Okay,

1212
01:15:16,560 --> 01:15:19,320
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris, you apply the same standard as I've been saying.

1213
01:15:19,760 --> 01:15:22,439
Speaker 1: Guess what she gets impeached and put on trial. He's

1214
01:15:22,479 --> 01:15:25,599
Speaker 1: the first president the ever impeached, be impeached without a lawyer,

1215
01:15:25,600 --> 01:15:29,280
Speaker 1: without a witness, with our ability to confront those against

1216
01:15:29,360 --> 01:15:32,519
Speaker 1: him and the trial record was a complete joke. Heresay

1217
01:15:32,600 --> 01:15:36,919
Speaker 1: upon hearsay, And we've opened Pandora's box to future presidents.

1218
01:15:36,920 --> 01:15:39,040
Speaker 1: And if you use this model, I don't know how

1219
01:15:39,160 --> 01:15:43,160
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris doesn't get impeached at the Republicans take over

1220
01:15:43,200 --> 01:15:47,320
Speaker 1: the House because she actually belled out rioters and one

1221
01:15:47,320 --> 01:15:49,639
Speaker 1: of the rioters went back to the streets and broke

1222
01:15:49,720 --> 01:15:53,200
Speaker 1: somebody's head open. So we've opened Pandora's box here, And

1223
01:15:53,280 --> 01:15:56,160
Speaker 1: I'm sad for the country. Okay, is it? They're not

1224
01:15:56,280 --> 01:15:59,880
Speaker 1: gonna stop. This is right after the police precinct burned

1225
01:16:00,080 --> 01:16:02,600
Speaker 1: the ground in the middle of writing. That's been that

1226
01:16:02,760 --> 01:16:06,040
Speaker 1: was breaking out over the country Minneapolis early in the time,

1227
01:16:06,520 --> 01:16:09,679
Speaker 1: and raising money for people that go out and yeah,

1228
01:16:09,760 --> 01:16:12,200
Speaker 1: then commit more crimes because we don't keep them in

1229
01:16:12,280 --> 01:16:15,320
Speaker 1: jail because the bail fund that she was a part of.

1230
01:16:15,400 --> 01:16:16,840
Speaker 1: All Right, a lot of you want to wag in.

1231
01:16:16,920 --> 01:16:21,839
Speaker 1: Let's make that happen. Let us say Mo, the liberal

1232
01:16:22,040 --> 01:16:24,720
Speaker 1: from Brooklyn. This is Mo. Mo has been calling the

1233
01:16:24,800 --> 01:16:27,840
Speaker 1: show for years. Moe thinks I'm the most dangerous guy

1234
01:16:27,960 --> 01:16:31,479
Speaker 1: in America. Do you still believe that, Sean? You get

1235
01:16:31,520 --> 01:16:35,640
Speaker 1: more dangerous by the day, My friend, if I was

1236
01:16:35,720 --> 01:16:38,320
Speaker 1: that dangerous than Donald Trump would have won the last

1237
01:16:38,360 --> 01:16:41,000
Speaker 1: election and he'd be president right now. If apparently I'm

1238
01:16:41,040 --> 01:16:43,400
Speaker 1: not as all powerful as you would you would suggest

1239
01:16:43,439 --> 01:16:46,760
Speaker 1: that I am. Well, Sean, I picked the election on

1240
01:16:47,360 --> 01:16:50,160
Speaker 1: at ten thirty on election night when I saw what

1241
01:16:50,320 --> 01:16:53,960
Speaker 1: was happening in Arizona and Nevada, and yeah, there wasn't

1242
01:16:54,040 --> 01:16:57,479
Speaker 1: much anybody could do. You know, Donald put himself on

1243
01:16:57,640 --> 01:17:00,240
Speaker 1: the line, and you know, I don't know how many

1244
01:17:00,320 --> 01:17:03,439
Speaker 1: votes we won by, but it was at least seven million.

1245
01:17:03,760 --> 01:17:07,559
Speaker 1: And you know the problem is, and even you should

1246
01:17:07,560 --> 01:17:11,559
Speaker 1: be concerned about this. And Democrats, you know, as long

1247
01:17:11,600 --> 01:17:14,480
Speaker 1: as they got the result they wanted. But when the laws,

1248
01:17:14,479 --> 01:17:19,080
Speaker 1: the statutory language says the partisan observers should be able

1249
01:17:19,080 --> 01:17:21,160
Speaker 1: to watch the vote count start to finish and it

1250
01:17:21,200 --> 01:17:24,640
Speaker 1: doesn't happen, that should concern you. When a when a

1251
01:17:24,760 --> 01:17:29,639
Speaker 1: state constitution like Pennsylvania has very strict limits on mail

1252
01:17:29,680 --> 01:17:34,600
Speaker 1: and voting, and then they don't they bypassed their own constitution,

1253
01:17:34,680 --> 01:17:38,360
Speaker 1: that should concern you. Same with Wisconsin state law. Go ahead,

1254
01:17:38,560 --> 01:17:41,600
Speaker 1: Sean Man, I was a poll watcher. I know what

1255
01:17:41,720 --> 01:17:45,320
Speaker 1: happens at the polls I've been there. Voting should be

1256
01:17:45,400 --> 01:17:51,040
Speaker 1: much more accessible to Americans, all Americans. And about voter ID,

1257
01:17:51,160 --> 01:17:55,000
Speaker 1: do you support voter ID? No, I don't support voter

1258
01:17:55,120 --> 01:17:58,680
Speaker 1: ID because my mother was able to vote. She's ninety eight.

1259
01:17:58,800 --> 01:18:02,760
Speaker 1: She has no VALOT, she has no valid ide. Your mom. Well,

1260
01:18:02,800 --> 01:18:05,360
Speaker 1: we can get your mom valid ID. I promised there's

1261
01:18:05,360 --> 01:18:07,280
Speaker 1: a way to do it in New York where you are.

1262
01:18:07,360 --> 01:18:10,439
Speaker 1: That's fairly easy, even if she doesn't want a driver's license.

1263
01:18:10,800 --> 01:18:12,800
Speaker 1: And I'm sure you'd be in the loving son that

1264
01:18:12,880 --> 01:18:14,960
Speaker 1: you are, you would help your ninety eight year old,

1265
01:18:15,040 --> 01:18:18,320
Speaker 1: wonderful mom. I already talked to Chuck Schumer. He said

1266
01:18:18,320 --> 01:18:20,160
Speaker 1: he'd take care of it if we needed it. We

1267
01:18:20,160 --> 01:18:22,800
Speaker 1: were more concerned about her the last time she left

1268
01:18:22,800 --> 01:18:24,519
Speaker 1: the country. They weren't going to let her back in

1269
01:18:24,720 --> 01:18:28,880
Speaker 1: because she only had her citizenship papers from nineteen forty

1270
01:18:28,920 --> 01:18:31,400
Speaker 1: eight with her maiden name. Oh yeah, yeah, we gotta

1271
01:18:31,760 --> 01:18:33,680
Speaker 1: get your We gotta get your poor momm up to

1272
01:18:33,760 --> 01:18:36,639
Speaker 1: speed with some ID. I think you can't get into

1273
01:18:36,640 --> 01:18:39,800
Speaker 1: a Democratic national convention without photo idea? Did you know

1274
01:18:39,880 --> 01:18:43,400
Speaker 1: that you can't get Look, Suan, I work in secure

1275
01:18:43,439 --> 01:18:45,920
Speaker 1: places all the time. I know what the idea is.

1276
01:18:46,000 --> 01:18:49,080
Speaker 1: He'd be nice. So if we want integrity and confidence

1277
01:18:49,080 --> 01:18:51,759
Speaker 1: in election results. We should have voter ID, we should

1278
01:18:51,760 --> 01:18:57,000
Speaker 1: have chain of custody, very strict, rigorous standards. Um, I

1279
01:18:57,080 --> 01:19:00,400
Speaker 1: think I think mail in voting, if you're gonna do it,

1280
01:19:00,479 --> 01:19:03,720
Speaker 1: you gotta have voter ID. We need real signature verification.

1281
01:19:04,160 --> 01:19:07,120
Speaker 1: And I think that's to protect the integrity on both sides,

1282
01:19:07,200 --> 01:19:09,960
Speaker 1: so that people will have confidence in election results. And

1283
01:19:10,000 --> 01:19:11,559
Speaker 1: I think that would be a good thing for the country,

1284
01:19:11,600 --> 01:19:15,240
Speaker 1: don't you. Well, I agree that election should be above

1285
01:19:15,439 --> 01:19:19,360
Speaker 1: and well, you know, there's always been. It's a famous

1286
01:19:19,360 --> 01:19:23,599
Speaker 1: story of Kennedy. Well, Nancy Pelosi complained bitterly that twenty

1287
01:19:23,680 --> 01:19:27,519
Speaker 1: sixteen was stolen. Hillary said that Trump was an illegitimate president.

1288
01:19:27,560 --> 01:19:30,400
Speaker 1: Stacy Abrams still hasn't conceded her race. I don't see

1289
01:19:30,400 --> 01:19:33,360
Speaker 1: anybody upset about them complaining. Did you did you know

1290
01:19:33,400 --> 01:19:36,439
Speaker 1: what happened with Kennedy and West Virginia when he was running?

1291
01:19:36,720 --> 01:19:39,720
Speaker 1: How about Kennedy? Yeah? How about Kennedy in Illinois? Yeah,

1292
01:19:39,720 --> 01:19:43,240
Speaker 1: I know all about it. In West Virginia, his campaign

1293
01:19:43,280 --> 01:19:47,439
Speaker 1: manager sped through every small town in West Virginia and

1294
01:19:47,600 --> 01:19:50,320
Speaker 1: gave the sheriff five grand if he get them to

1295
01:19:50,400 --> 01:19:53,840
Speaker 1: vote for Kennedy and they won. So you approve of

1296
01:19:53,880 --> 01:19:56,200
Speaker 1: such things? Is that what you're saying, Moe from Brooklyn?

1297
01:19:56,600 --> 01:20:00,240
Speaker 1: What's that you approve of this? Well? I I think

1298
01:20:00,240 --> 01:20:04,599
Speaker 1: elections should be run fairly, and well you can't. How

1299
01:20:04,640 --> 01:20:07,679
Speaker 1: do you then? If you want them fair? Partisan observers

1300
01:20:07,720 --> 01:20:11,800
Speaker 1: should observe, chain of custody should be respected, signature verification

1301
01:20:12,439 --> 01:20:15,240
Speaker 1: and voter ID. It's pretty simple. It's not that it's

1302
01:20:15,280 --> 01:20:19,080
Speaker 1: not that rigorous a standard, Sean. Everybody knows what happens

1303
01:20:19,120 --> 01:20:21,360
Speaker 1: at the polls. You know, the lady who I go

1304
01:20:21,400 --> 01:20:24,240
Speaker 1: in and side assigned over for thirty years. I look

1305
01:20:24,280 --> 01:20:26,519
Speaker 1: at my signature over all the years I vote, is

1306
01:20:26,560 --> 01:20:30,160
Speaker 1: they're all different. Sub I'm never gonna I'm never gonna

1307
01:20:30,240 --> 01:20:32,519
Speaker 1: change your mind, but I'm trying. I've been trying, Moe

1308
01:20:32,600 --> 01:20:34,200
Speaker 1: for years. All Right, you'll give you the last word.

1309
01:20:34,479 --> 01:20:36,720
Speaker 1: The last squord I gotta say to is Sean, is

1310
01:20:37,400 --> 01:20:41,479
Speaker 1: I am so happy that you've done so well over

1311
01:20:41,720 --> 01:20:44,439
Speaker 1: the years since we've been talking. And I'm really proud

1312
01:20:45,120 --> 01:20:47,880
Speaker 1: and happy whenever I get a chance to call in

1313
01:20:48,040 --> 01:20:50,560
Speaker 1: and say hi to Yet, you know, I can't hate Mo.

1314
01:20:51,520 --> 01:20:53,960
Speaker 1: For the people in this audience. MO has been calling

1315
01:20:54,040 --> 01:20:56,720
Speaker 1: me for years, and we've been arguing for years, and

1316
01:20:57,000 --> 01:20:59,920
Speaker 1: I still look. There's something about the quality of your voice.

1317
01:21:00,360 --> 01:21:07,439
Speaker 1: It's just the sincerity that is infuriatingly nice. All Right,

1318
01:21:07,560 --> 01:21:10,160
Speaker 1: we God bless you, my friend. God bless your mom too. Okay,

1319
01:21:10,920 --> 01:21:13,320
Speaker 1: let's say hi, let's let's go to Texas. Maybe we

1320
01:21:13,400 --> 01:21:17,519
Speaker 1: can get some some reasonable viewpoints in Texas. Andrew, how

1321
01:21:17,600 --> 01:21:20,800
Speaker 1: are you. I'm good, Sean. Thank you for thank you

1322
01:21:20,840 --> 01:21:22,760
Speaker 1: for you do for a country every day. Man. And

1323
01:21:22,920 --> 01:21:25,320
Speaker 1: that previous college just reminded me of your dates with

1324
01:21:25,960 --> 01:21:28,439
Speaker 1: Alan Colmes. It was it was pretty cool just to

1325
01:21:28,760 --> 01:21:31,120
Speaker 1: just to hear that. Being By the way, we're praying

1326
01:21:31,160 --> 01:21:33,200
Speaker 1: for our friends in Texas. I know you guys. The

1327
01:21:33,320 --> 01:21:36,800
Speaker 1: temperatures are really low, the streets are really dangerous in

1328
01:21:36,840 --> 01:21:38,680
Speaker 1: a lot of places. A lot of prayers for our

1329
01:21:38,720 --> 01:21:43,920
Speaker 1: friends in Texas, and uh, hang in there. The temperature

1330
01:21:43,960 --> 01:21:47,360
Speaker 1: will come back and melt the ice and etc. Well

1331
01:21:47,400 --> 01:21:49,479
Speaker 1: we appreciate that. Yeah, we've got about five inches of

1332
01:21:49,520 --> 01:21:51,800
Speaker 1: snow down here in San Antonio and some ice too,

1333
01:21:51,920 --> 01:21:54,320
Speaker 1: so we're not used to that. But now I know,

1334
01:21:54,479 --> 01:21:56,479
Speaker 1: I know, and be careful with that ice. If it's

1335
01:21:56,479 --> 01:21:59,439
Speaker 1: on the pavement. You can't see it and so driving

1336
01:21:59,520 --> 01:22:02,320
Speaker 1: it can be treacherous. Just be careful. You know, if

1337
01:22:02,360 --> 01:22:04,519
Speaker 1: there's an older person living on your block, maybe you

1338
01:22:04,560 --> 01:22:06,840
Speaker 1: go make sure check in on and make sure they're okay.

1339
01:22:07,320 --> 01:22:09,479
Speaker 1: Maybe they if that power goes out, maybe you can

1340
01:22:09,560 --> 01:22:11,240
Speaker 1: lend them a space heater if you have one. Just

1341
01:22:11,520 --> 01:22:14,400
Speaker 1: you know, everybody helps everybody. Well, we will do that, man,

1342
01:22:14,640 --> 01:22:18,840
Speaker 1: Thank you, Thank you, Sean. What else is on your mind? Well,

1343
01:22:18,920 --> 01:22:23,479
Speaker 1: my question is I understand that since the acquittal this weekend,

1344
01:22:23,680 --> 01:22:26,519
Speaker 1: I'm looking at this in two parts. One, since Justice

1345
01:22:26,640 --> 01:22:31,479
Speaker 1: Roberts didn't preside and Senator Lahy is not Chief Chief Justice,

1346
01:22:31,840 --> 01:22:35,800
Speaker 1: we understand it is unconstitutional. But my big question is

1347
01:22:36,120 --> 01:22:38,519
Speaker 1: is that how is it that we can go forward,

1348
01:22:38,840 --> 01:22:42,760
Speaker 1: either as the American people or as you know, representatives

1349
01:22:42,840 --> 01:22:48,160
Speaker 1: and senators in Congress where they can bring a litigation

1350
01:22:48,280 --> 01:22:51,120
Speaker 1: suit all the way to the Supreme Court to clarify

1351
01:22:51,600 --> 01:22:55,800
Speaker 1: how Congress can impeach presents going forward. And the reason

1352
01:22:55,800 --> 01:22:57,840
Speaker 1: why I'm saying this is because I know we can't

1353
01:22:57,840 --> 01:23:00,320
Speaker 1: do anything about it now, but looking to the future,

1354
01:23:00,360 --> 01:23:03,320
Speaker 1: I know that's very murky, you know, in the Constitution

1355
01:23:03,400 --> 01:23:06,800
Speaker 1: of how how it has to be and it's very

1356
01:23:06,920 --> 01:23:11,840
Speaker 1: limited on the language of explanation of impeachment. So it's like,

1357
01:23:12,080 --> 01:23:13,880
Speaker 1: we can just impeach just to impeach. And what it

1358
01:23:13,920 --> 01:23:17,559
Speaker 1: does is it makes our country weaker, and it also

1359
01:23:17,920 --> 01:23:21,320
Speaker 1: makes our country weaker in the eyes of our enemies

1360
01:23:21,760 --> 01:23:24,559
Speaker 1: because we are just playing this political game. And then,

1361
01:23:24,920 --> 01:23:26,559
Speaker 1: you know, say in two years, we don't like what's

1362
01:23:26,600 --> 01:23:28,840
Speaker 1: going on and the Republicans get back in, we can

1363
01:23:28,880 --> 01:23:31,400
Speaker 1: just impeach you know, Joe Biden, we can impeach you know,

1364
01:23:31,479 --> 01:23:34,160
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris, We can impeach whoever we want. And I think,

1365
01:23:34,240 --> 01:23:37,559
Speaker 1: you know, we're setting a dangerous precedence going forward, um

1366
01:23:37,760 --> 01:23:41,200
Speaker 1: and not understanding the integrity of why it was it

1367
01:23:41,360 --> 01:23:45,040
Speaker 1: was done to begin with with our founding fathers. Look,

1368
01:23:46,120 --> 01:23:50,040
Speaker 1: is this all dangerous? Have we now? Have we now

1369
01:23:50,160 --> 01:23:53,280
Speaker 1: opened Pandora's box that impeachment is going to be at

1370
01:23:53,280 --> 01:23:57,040
Speaker 1: the drop of the hat if there was, If if

1371
01:23:57,120 --> 01:24:01,040
Speaker 1: the same standards used by Democrats where used by Republicans

1372
01:24:01,040 --> 01:24:04,439
Speaker 1: against Democrats, the answer would be yes. Do I expect

1373
01:24:04,560 --> 01:24:07,559
Speaker 1: Republicans will ever do that? No? You know, the one

1374
01:24:07,680 --> 01:24:10,200
Speaker 1: thing they didn't never learn from Trump is that you

1375
01:24:10,320 --> 01:24:13,720
Speaker 1: gotta fight hard, and Trump fought them hard. That's one

1376
01:24:13,760 --> 01:24:17,560
Speaker 1: of the main reasons he's so hated and exposed Republicans

1377
01:24:17,600 --> 01:24:21,559
Speaker 1: and Democrats Listen. I would argue that Donald Trump's election

1378
01:24:21,600 --> 01:24:25,120
Speaker 1: in twenty sixteen was as much about the Republican Party

1379
01:24:25,240 --> 01:24:31,080
Speaker 1: being weak and feckless and visionless and incapable of keeping

1380
01:24:31,200 --> 01:24:36,280
Speaker 1: promises that it created the door, the opportunity, the path

1381
01:24:36,439 --> 01:24:40,720
Speaker 1: for a disruptor to knock out seventeen other prominent Republicans

1382
01:24:40,800 --> 01:24:43,479
Speaker 1: win the nomination and then win the presidency. And you

1383
01:24:43,560 --> 01:24:46,479
Speaker 1: can see the passion by which people support Donald Trump

1384
01:24:46,600 --> 01:24:49,120
Speaker 1: in large park because he made promises, he kept him

1385
01:24:49,439 --> 01:24:51,559
Speaker 1: and he fights back. Now a lot of people are

1386
01:24:51,560 --> 01:24:54,799
Speaker 1: offended by him fighting back, and they feigned their outrage

1387
01:24:54,800 --> 01:24:58,800
Speaker 1: in the media, but Democrats usually stay pretty united. That's

1388
01:24:58,840 --> 01:25:02,759
Speaker 1: one big distinct. Anyway, Hang in there in Texas to Andrew.

1389
01:25:02,920 --> 01:25:06,360
Speaker 1: Praying for our friends down there, Eric and the socialist

1390
01:25:06,520 --> 01:25:11,080
Speaker 1: utopia of California. Next, Eric, how are you. I'm doing good, Sean,

1391
01:25:11,240 --> 01:25:13,120
Speaker 1: Thank you very much, and thank you for taking my call.

1392
01:25:13,680 --> 01:25:16,640
Speaker 1: Thank you. Try to keep it quick here so and

1393
01:25:16,840 --> 01:25:21,160
Speaker 1: get your answer first of all. Yeah, socialist California, but

1394
01:25:21,240 --> 01:25:23,320
Speaker 1: I'm not one of them. But we have to get

1395
01:25:23,360 --> 01:25:25,760
Speaker 1: out of here one way, one way or the other.

1396
01:25:26,360 --> 01:25:31,000
Speaker 1: But after the just complete sham of the impeachment and

1397
01:25:33,080 --> 01:25:37,960
Speaker 1: stolen election, my wife and I are you know, we're

1398
01:25:38,320 --> 01:25:43,160
Speaker 1: very conservative Republican patriots, but we are thinking of leaving

1399
01:25:43,200 --> 01:25:46,080
Speaker 1: America and we're not actors. And let me give you

1400
01:25:46,120 --> 01:25:49,800
Speaker 1: a quick background before I get your opinion on this. Um,

1401
01:25:50,120 --> 01:25:52,680
Speaker 1: my dad and my uncle were freedom fighters in the

1402
01:25:52,800 --> 01:25:57,680
Speaker 1: Hungarian Revolution of nineteen fifty six and they literally had

1403
01:25:57,720 --> 01:26:00,880
Speaker 1: to escape or they would have been killed for sure.

1404
01:26:01,600 --> 01:26:05,760
Speaker 1: And they did come here as legal refugees, became legal citizens,

1405
01:26:06,400 --> 01:26:10,080
Speaker 1: you know, the whole whole whole nine yards. Um. I've

1406
01:26:10,120 --> 01:26:13,400
Speaker 1: been going to Hungary since I was aged seven, so

1407
01:26:13,600 --> 01:26:19,360
Speaker 1: I grew up in a communist country. And um, besides,

1408
01:26:19,560 --> 01:26:23,479
Speaker 1: besides the election and the impeachment, Uh, just all the

1409
01:26:23,640 --> 01:26:27,439
Speaker 1: hatred and division in this country. And I don't see

1410
01:26:27,479 --> 01:26:33,000
Speaker 1: it going away going away anytime soon. UM. I mean,

1411
01:26:33,120 --> 01:26:37,679
Speaker 1: we're just we're just heartbroken. It's what that happened, you know. Okay,

1412
01:26:37,720 --> 01:26:41,680
Speaker 1: go ahead, sir, I'm sorry. Now in Hungary, UH, they

1413
01:26:41,760 --> 01:26:45,920
Speaker 1: have probably some of the safest borders in the world.

1414
01:26:46,520 --> 01:26:50,439
Speaker 1: Freedom of speech, capitalism, you know, no PC, none of

1415
01:26:50,520 --> 01:26:53,800
Speaker 1: the new words every day like canceled culture. I can

1416
01:26:53,880 --> 01:26:56,559
Speaker 1: you know, I can't even keep up. You know, it'd

1417
01:26:56,600 --> 01:27:01,000
Speaker 1: be like moving back to the thirties forties, and you know,

1418
01:27:01,760 --> 01:27:05,479
Speaker 1: we just want peace. And let me look, I don't

1419
01:27:05,479 --> 01:27:06,800
Speaker 1: have a lot of time, and I want to give

1420
01:27:06,840 --> 01:27:10,080
Speaker 1: you a full answer because you deserve one. I would

1421
01:27:10,200 --> 01:27:12,320
Speaker 1: rather fix this country because I don't think there's a

1422
01:27:12,400 --> 01:27:14,479
Speaker 1: better place on the face of the earth in America,

1423
01:27:14,680 --> 01:27:18,400
Speaker 1: and we need a strong America for the world to succeed.

1424
01:27:18,640 --> 01:27:21,400
Speaker 1: There's been plenty of articles written about the fact that

1425
01:27:21,520 --> 01:27:24,720
Speaker 1: twenty twenty, you know, we have more Americans now doing

1426
01:27:24,840 --> 01:27:27,920
Speaker 1: exactly what you're suggesting. The first half of twenty twenty

1427
01:27:28,240 --> 01:27:32,599
Speaker 1: broke a record of five thousand, four hundred and nine

1428
01:27:32,640 --> 01:27:35,200
Speaker 1: Americans again the first six months. They gave up their

1429
01:27:35,240 --> 01:27:37,479
Speaker 1: citizenship for a variety of reasons, and a lot of

1430
01:27:37,880 --> 01:27:41,719
Speaker 1: you know, it's taxes, its regulations, it's a lot of reasons.

1431
01:27:41,960 --> 01:27:46,400
Speaker 1: And I'd rather fix the country. I think the left

1432
01:27:46,520 --> 01:27:50,800
Speaker 1: is already overreaching, and I'd rather keep all hands on deck,

1433
01:27:51,560 --> 01:27:54,599
Speaker 1: focus on the things that we as conservatives know would

1434
01:27:54,640 --> 01:27:57,680
Speaker 1: work and be good for the American people, and to fight.

1435
01:27:57,880 --> 01:28:00,639
Speaker 1: To quote, all of the Democrats in a ten minute

1436
01:28:00,720 --> 01:28:04,639
Speaker 1: montage played last week. Fight and fight with all you've

1437
01:28:04,720 --> 01:28:07,879
Speaker 1: got for the principles that guide this country to success

1438
01:28:08,000 --> 01:28:11,519
Speaker 1: and prosperity and freedom. Liberty. The cause of liberty and

1439
01:28:11,640 --> 01:28:15,599
Speaker 1: freedom is it never stops. I would like to stay

1440
01:28:15,640 --> 01:28:18,720
Speaker 1: the United States of America. That's my first choice by far.

1441
