1
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:24,760
Speaker 1: Good evening, America, Happy Monday, and welcome to the latest edition.

2
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:25,960
Speaker 2: Of Just the News, No Noise.

3
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:28,440
Speaker 1: I'm your host, John Solomon, reporting to you as always

4
00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:30,560
Speaker 1: from the Nation's Capital. We're going to go solo tonight.

5
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:32,800
Speaker 1: Amanda Head is out of pocket, so we're going to

6
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:35,320
Speaker 1: get to that in a second. Some breaking news before

7
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:38,080
Speaker 1: we get to everything that's on script tonight. Just a

8
00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:40,800
Speaker 1: few minutes ago, the Secretary of Homeland Security Christi Noman

9
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:43,479
Speaker 1: announced that all ICE agents in Minneapolis will now be

10
00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:47,000
Speaker 1: equipped with body cameras, so that every aspect of their

11
00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:49,800
Speaker 1: actions will be captured by the United States government, not

12
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:53,680
Speaker 1: just protesters with different angles with their phone cameras. This

13
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 1: is a really popular idea. She worked with Tom Holman.

14
00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:00,520
Speaker 1: President Trump's borders are to get this simple mena today.

15
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:02,680
Speaker 1: She announced it just a few minutes ago. You can

16
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:05,600
Speaker 1: get the latest on that over at justinews dot com.

17
00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 1: We just moved a big news alert there. Now we

18
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:09,800
Speaker 1: got some other big news to get to and that's

19
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 1: about that FBI raid on a Georgia warehouse that occurred

20
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 1: last Wednesday. About seven hundred boxes of ballots were collected

21
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,320
Speaker 1: there by FBI agents. Our reporting here at Justin News

22
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:24,040
Speaker 1: has uncovered that the FBI search warrant approving that raid

23
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 1: cited a law that prahabits fraud by election workers. A

24
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 1: search warrant for the Fulton County election hub near Atlanta,

25
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,960
Speaker 1: which is the major city in Georgia, was signed by

26
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 1: federal magister and it's specifically cited two sections of Title

27
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,679
Speaker 1: fifty two of the US Code. Specifically, the sections that

28
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:44,200
Speaker 1: were cited banned someone who knowingly and wialthily deprives the

29
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 1: frauds or attempts to deprive or de fraud the residents

30
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:50,880
Speaker 1: of a state of a fair and impartially conducted election process,

31
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:54,960
Speaker 1: either through the picturement or submission of voter registration applications

32
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 1: that are known by a person to be material or false, fictitious,

33
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 1: or fraudulent under the laws of the state in which

34
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 1: the election is held. In other words, the focus of

35
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 1: this investigation, the focus of that raid, the reason that

36
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 1: a federal judge approved that raid was that they're looking

37
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 1: at possible crimes related by election workers and the administration

38
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 1: of that election in twenty twenty, that's the one that

39
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 1: President Trump for years says, race concerned. We're going to

40
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 1: more in this in just a little bit. But we've

41
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 1: got a couple other things I want to mention. We're

42
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 1: seeing a lot more now on the horizon with what

43
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 1: the left is going to do. They're going to go

44
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:35,960
Speaker 1: into churches and interrupt services. They're going to go into

45
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,880
Speaker 1: synagogues like they did in Long Island last week and

46
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:44,240
Speaker 1: interrupt Jewish religious proceedings. They're going to block ICE enforcement.

47
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:46,960
Speaker 1: I just want to remind everybody when you look at

48
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:50,400
Speaker 1: the Statue of Liberty, we always know about the torch.

49
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 1: We say that torch is the light, the beacon of

50
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:56,040
Speaker 1: light for the world of freedom. But in her other

51
00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,680
Speaker 1: hand there is a law book, and it is a

52
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 1: reminder that America is not only built on freedom, but.

53
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:04,399
Speaker 2: On the laws and the law rule of law.

54
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 1: That ensures those freedoms exist generation to generation. As we

55
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 1: look out today, the Justice Department has some very big

56
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:13,640
Speaker 1: decisions to face in the near future.

57
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 2: Will they charge as cash?

58
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:19,120
Speaker 1: Betel suggests that the other day on this show, the

59
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:23,120
Speaker 1: people who are funding and organizing and providing material support

60
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:27,119
Speaker 1: and logistical support to the ICE protesters across this country, will.

61
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:28,240
Speaker 2: They charge those people?

62
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:30,680
Speaker 1: Will they created de terms to the money, Will they

63
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 1: pull the nonprofit status, the tax exempt status of some

64
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:39,080
Speaker 1: of the groups involved in this anarchy, in this violence.

65
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 2: Those are moments.

66
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,240
Speaker 1: That we're going to learn pretty soon what's going to

67
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 1: come of them. We're also likely to learn in the

68
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 1: next few days who the FBI interviewed when they decided

69
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 1: to raid that Georgia house. I want to put these

70
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:55,640
Speaker 1: two things on your radar. Will the Justice Department charge

71
00:03:56,480 --> 00:04:01,040
Speaker 1: the nonprofit groups and the organizers of these ice protests?

72
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 1: And will we get to see the unsealed affidavit of

73
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,720
Speaker 1: who the FBI interviewed before they requested that search worm.

74
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 1: Whatever those interview show or compelling enough that a magistrate

75
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 1: approve those search worms. Those are two things I think

76
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:17,040
Speaker 1: we can learn a lot about this. We want to

77
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 1: put them on your ratar. Now, we've got a great

78
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:22,039
Speaker 1: start to the show. Joining us from the great state

79
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 1: of Michigan is Congressman Tom Barriners. In the middle of

80
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,120
Speaker 1: a lot of these big debasal has some new, brand

81
00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:29,599
Speaker 1: new constitution. Men, we're going to get to Congressman. Great

82
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,119
Speaker 1: to have you on the show today.

83
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,600
Speaker 3: Man, thank you so much for having me, and I

84
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 3: really appreciate the opportunity to join you for a little

85
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 3: while tonight.

86
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 1: We love having you on, and I love when people

87
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 1: come up with ideas.

88
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:42,800
Speaker 2: We've been talking about lawfair.

89
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:46,480
Speaker 1: We've been talking about frustration of federal judges who rule

90
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 1: one way and then constantly get overruled by higher courts

91
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 1: because they're not following the law. You've got a brand

92
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:58,040
Speaker 1: new proposal, a constitutional amendment that would limit federal judges terms,

93
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 1: which are currently lifetime appointments, to two decades. Tell us

94
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 1: about it and where it's at.

95
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 3: It absolutely, I just unrolled this proposal in the last

96
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:08,800
Speaker 3: couple of days, and really this was born out of

97
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:13,240
Speaker 3: a broader reform agenda that I've been tackling this year.

98
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 3: I spent my first year in Congress in twenty twenty

99
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:18,560
Speaker 3: five really witnessing and observing a lot of things that

100
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 3: I think are broken in American politics right now, that

101
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 3: the federal government isn't really answering the call of the

102
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:29,920
Speaker 3: people that ultimately are who we govern, and the consent

103
00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,479
Speaker 3: of the government is so critical to the role that

104
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:36,120
Speaker 3: we have in government and through elected officials. And I've

105
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:39,280
Speaker 3: put together a number of reforms. One that I just

106
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 3: unveiled this week that you talked about is making new

107
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,520
Speaker 3: federal judicial appointments a twenty year term instead of a

108
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,360
Speaker 3: lifetime appointment. If you think back to the founding of

109
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:53,480
Speaker 3: our country and the signing of the Constitution and really

110
00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,040
Speaker 3: creating this new form of government, twenty years probably was

111
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,719
Speaker 3: a lifetime appointment at that point, but it's no longer

112
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:01,000
Speaker 3: the case right now, and people are, for decade after

113
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 3: decade after decade, really becoming further and further out of

114
00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:09,040
Speaker 3: touch with the people that ultimately answer for the decisions

115
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,839
Speaker 3: that these people make. And to me, it is something

116
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:13,719
Speaker 3: that is a step in the right direction, and it

117
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 3: allows for you know, occasional turnover within the federal courts

118
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:21,480
Speaker 3: while still providing a firm independence from the day to

119
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,839
Speaker 3: day politics that we want to see.

120
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, what's the sentiments among your colleagues since you first

121
00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 1: introduced it. I think this is going to be incredibly

122
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 1: popular with the American public, But how about in the

123
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 1: rank and file of the Republican Party and your fellow lawmakers.

124
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 3: You know, it's interesting, I think people often don't want

125
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 3: to change the status quo. So it's something that I'm

126
00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:44,120
Speaker 3: expecting to have some good, you know, kind of debate

127
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,320
Speaker 3: and whatnot, and I'm actually coupling it with a existing

128
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 3: provision that I co sponsored as well, another constitutional amendment

129
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,360
Speaker 3: to lock in the Supreme Court at nine justices.

130
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 4: You know, there's.

131
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:57,119
Speaker 3: Always this threat we're going to see the Supreme Court

132
00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 3: packed by usually the Democrats calling for to be totally

133
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:04,359
Speaker 3: candid to add more justices to the Supreme Court to

134
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:06,479
Speaker 3: get different outcomes that they want to see. To me,

135
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:08,960
Speaker 3: we ought to lock in the Supreme Court at nine justices.

136
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 3: And then we also, I think, can have a reasonable

137
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,680
Speaker 3: period of time for federal judges to serve and then

138
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 3: they can move on to other opportunities in their life

139
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 3: or go on and retire, if that's what they ultimately

140
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:22,280
Speaker 3: decide to do.

141
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 4: And then the other.

142
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 3: Provision we're unrolling in this is actually one that would

143
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 3: require a super majority of Congress to bring a new

144
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:31,760
Speaker 3: state into the Union. Right now, it would take just

145
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:35,559
Speaker 3: a simple majority in Congress to create a new state.

146
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 3: That's something that all of us are very sensitive to.

147
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 3: And you could see one party or another trying to

148
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 3: pack new states into the union, add more senators to

149
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,480
Speaker 3: the US Senate, add more electoral votes to that particular

150
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:52,560
Speaker 3: party's interests, and to me, destabilizing that balance should require

151
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 3: a higher threshold to change in our countries.

152
00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 4: So these are all kind of broader.

153
00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 3: Reforms that we're looking at that I think are important

154
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,760
Speaker 3: to do and ultimately hopefully will little, you know, a

155
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,360
Speaker 3: little push in the direction of challenging the status quo.

156
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think the American people want a lot more challenge,

157
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:11,720
Speaker 1: so that status quo and this you're you're on the

158
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,920
Speaker 1: path that I think doing that. There's another thing, and

159
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:18,960
Speaker 1: you obviously served our military where a helicopter pilot. I

160
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:21,840
Speaker 1: think I can't believe the lack of attention that this

161
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:23,960
Speaker 1: report got it. I think it's so much more important.

162
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 1: But the after action report on that horrible collision that

163
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:29,560
Speaker 1: occurred over the Potomac River here.

164
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 2: In the nation's capital.

165
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:35,439
Speaker 1: So much neglect, so much failure by the Biden administration.

166
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,320
Speaker 1: The warning signs were blinking red for a long time

167
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:42,760
Speaker 1: with the FAA controllers being overworked. But there's another part

168
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:46,000
Speaker 1: of this, which is technology can solve a large part

169
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 1: of this. You have I think a really great solution.

170
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 1: You may have to prod the bureaucracy to take it.

171
00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 1: So that's where you go in the legislative about But

172
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:54,960
Speaker 1: tell us what you have in mind for preventing future

173
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,400
Speaker 1: mid air collisions like the one that occurred here.

174
00:08:58,280 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 4: And this was really important to me.

175
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:03,920
Speaker 3: I flew Blackhawk helicopters in the Army, just like the

176
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:07,520
Speaker 3: one that crashed collided with that American Airlines flight just

177
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:09,920
Speaker 3: over one year ago. We had the one year anniversary

178
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 3: last week. I had enrolled a bill that ultimately we

179
00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:17,679
Speaker 3: got passed through the National Defense Authorization Act back at

180
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:19,480
Speaker 3: the end of the year that was signed by President

181
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 3: Trump that would require the Department of Defense to begin

182
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 3: looking at the same collision avoidance systems that our civilian

183
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:30,520
Speaker 3: airlines have. So that American Airlines flight had the collision

184
00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:34,760
Speaker 3: avoidance system embedded within it, but the Army Blackhawk helicopter

185
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:38,200
Speaker 3: did not. And that system only operates at its optimal

186
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,439
Speaker 3: sense when both aircraft have it on board, and that

187
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:44,800
Speaker 3: could have alerted the crews in both aircraft to an

188
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:49,160
Speaker 3: impending collision that I believe very likely could have prevented

189
00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:50,560
Speaker 3: this tragedy from happening.

190
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:51,959
Speaker 4: Now, because the.

191
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 3: Military doesn't have this on board, that system wasn't able

192
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:57,560
Speaker 3: to operate in the way in which it's designed, and

193
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,720
Speaker 3: therefore did not alert the crews in a timely way.

194
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:02,079
Speaker 4: Of this impending collision.

195
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:04,120
Speaker 3: Now, there were a lot of other failures, as you

196
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 3: pointed out, a lot of other things that should have

197
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:08,560
Speaker 3: happened that didn't, and a lot of things that are

198
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 3: lessons learned out of this. But I got that bill

199
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 3: signed into the NDAA was a really important, critical first

200
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 3: step in that process. And then from there, we're looking

201
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:21,920
Speaker 3: at accelerating the advancement of what they call the next

202
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:26,439
Speaker 3: generation collision avoidance system, which would reduce some of the

203
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 3: false alarms and other things and other low altitude issues

204
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 3: where that system doesn't operate in the way it's supposed to.

205
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:36,000
Speaker 3: So we're looking at advancing that. And then the last piece,

206
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 3: I introduced a bill on the anniversary of this collision

207
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:42,720
Speaker 3: that would prevent the Department of Defense Aircraft from turning

208
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 3: off the system that is a geolocation system that's very critical,

209
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 3: gets very precise location for aircraft that's required for airplanes

210
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,800
Speaker 3: and airlines to be using at all times. The Department

211
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 3: of Defense has a waiver for sensitive missions, which makes

212
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 3: a lot of sense. But that system was turned off

213
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:04,440
Speaker 3: for the entire portion of the flight that that Blackhawk

214
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:08,319
Speaker 3: helicopter was conducting. Once they were out of the sensitive

215
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,480
Speaker 3: portion of the flight. I think it's appropriate that they

216
00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:14,440
Speaker 3: turned that system back on to alert the other aircraft

217
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 3: around them and air traffic control and others to their

218
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:20,800
Speaker 3: positions so you don't see these incidents happening in the future.

219
00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:24,839
Speaker 2: So important and all common sense.

220
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 1: And I want to ask, we now know that the

221
00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:31,199
Speaker 1: Biden Transportation Department seemed to be aware and comfortable with

222
00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:34,680
Speaker 1: the fact that they had a problem with all of

223
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:38,320
Speaker 1: these flight controllers and being overworked and understaffed. Do you

224
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:42,199
Speaker 1: have confidence that the Trump Transportation Department, Sewan Duffy, the Secretary,

225
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:44,800
Speaker 1: is on this and that we're getting the right staffing now,

226
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:46,320
Speaker 1: on the right resource and going forward.

227
00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:47,400
Speaker 2: Yes.

228
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:51,160
Speaker 3: And we have put resources behind recruiting and retaining more

229
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:55,120
Speaker 3: air traffic controllers and training more, bringing more in, for example,

230
00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:57,800
Speaker 3: from the military who learned that skill set there, just

231
00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:59,920
Speaker 3: like I learned how to fly aircraft in the Middle

232
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,360
Speaker 3: Arry and that's a transferable skill that many of my

233
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:04,920
Speaker 3: colleagues I served with we're able to take on to

234
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 3: the civilian airline world. We want to recruit air traffic

235
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:10,520
Speaker 3: controllers from the military as well to put that experience

236
00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:15,679
Speaker 3: to use in the civilian space and work in those jobs.

237
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:17,000
Speaker 4: I mean, they are stressful jobs.

238
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,560
Speaker 3: They take a lot of skill, but also bringing in

239
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:22,560
Speaker 3: new technology so that some of the archaic and manual

240
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,800
Speaker 3: ways in which they are doing the management of airspace

241
00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:29,400
Speaker 3: can be brought up to new modern technology that would

242
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:32,280
Speaker 3: allow them to do that. Secretary Duffy has been adamant

243
00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:35,920
Speaker 3: about upgrading and updating that. President Trump has talked about

244
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:40,560
Speaker 3: the deficiencies within our national airspace and safety and really

245
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 3: all of those things that are so critical to overhaul,

246
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,200
Speaker 3: and we're looking at ways in which we can improve that.

247
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,080
Speaker 3: We took a big first step when we passed the

248
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:51,079
Speaker 3: Working Families tax cut back in July of last year,

249
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:53,559
Speaker 3: and that's the first step in this process that we're

250
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:56,240
Speaker 3: looking to really modernize and upgrade the FAA and our

251
00:12:56,280 --> 00:13:00,560
Speaker 3: air traffic controllers and keep the air traveling public safe.

252
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:02,960
Speaker 3: This is something that I have a particular interest in

253
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 3: given my background flying aircraft in the military, that I

254
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,640
Speaker 3: want to make sure that we keep everyone safe because

255
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,200
Speaker 3: that's what all of us expect, and we should be

256
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:13,120
Speaker 3: proud of the fact that air travel is still the

257
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:16,040
Speaker 3: safest form of travel in the world and in the country.

258
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:18,680
Speaker 3: But that doesn't mean we can't make sure that we're

259
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:21,280
Speaker 3: taking steps to move that in the direction of safety,

260
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:24,319
Speaker 3: and too often it's sad, but the reality is when

261
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 3: we have a tragic outcome like we did over the

262
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:30,360
Speaker 3: Potomac River just over a year ago, that often is

263
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 3: what inspires changed to come along, and we have to

264
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,400
Speaker 3: take lessons learned from those incidents and make sure that

265
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 3: we never allow them to happen again.

266
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,280
Speaker 1: You're doing your part to make sure that a lot

267
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:43,200
Speaker 1: of people praising the determined work that you've done on this,

268
00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:45,319
Speaker 1: and I think people appreciate of it. I want to

269
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:48,560
Speaker 1: finish up with the shutdown. It's just a temporary, partial shutdown.

270
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:51,439
Speaker 1: How do you feel about it ending? Do you think

271
00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:53,600
Speaker 1: there's the votes to get it done? And then I'd

272
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 1: also like to get your reaction to some of the

273
00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:58,920
Speaker 1: things that Democrats are trying to get out of this,

274
00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:02,240
Speaker 1: which is a requirement, for instance, that ICE agents wouldn't

275
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 1: have to I couldn't wear masks going forward. Your thoughts

276
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:06,199
Speaker 1: first on whether we're going to get out of the

277
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:09,160
Speaker 1: shutdown in two some of the concessions Democrats are fighting for.

278
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:11,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, I do believe we'll get out of this shutdown.

279
00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:13,640
Speaker 3: You know, there's no reason to shut down the government.

280
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 3: We've already voted through these appropriations bills once already that

281
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:18,880
Speaker 3: has passed the legislature.

282
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:21,040
Speaker 4: I'm confident that we'll get them done again.

283
00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:23,960
Speaker 3: And then some of these concessions they want, you know,

284
00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 3: body cams, for example, you pointed that out, and your

285
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:28,920
Speaker 3: opening monologue is an important piece that I think all

286
00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,760
Speaker 3: of us support. We appropriated twenty million dollars for body

287
00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:34,600
Speaker 3: cams in the legislation that has already passed. That then

288
00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:37,480
Speaker 3: the Senate removed and stripped out. That's something that I

289
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 3: think we ought to be supportive of. If the Democrats

290
00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:43,400
Speaker 3: want body cams, let's start with that, you know, as

291
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 3: it relates specifically to masks and other things. These agents

292
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:50,400
Speaker 3: are wearing them because they're being docksed by people in

293
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:52,920
Speaker 3: the community and by Democrats enabling them, who are then

294
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,280
Speaker 3: showing up and you know, going to their churches and

295
00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:58,320
Speaker 3: confronting them in areas outside of their job. They want

296
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:01,360
Speaker 3: to get home safe to their families. Hearing out a

297
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:06,120
Speaker 3: legitimate purpose and a legitimate law enforcement exercise. We have to

298
00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:10,120
Speaker 3: recognize that. I think having body cameras is important, but

299
00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:13,200
Speaker 3: when you start putting agents at risk, that crosses the

300
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:15,400
Speaker 3: line that we have to stand and make sure that

301
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:18,200
Speaker 3: we're protecting against Yeah, I.

302
00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:20,480
Speaker 1: Think most Americas are nodding in agreement when you hear

303
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 1: you say that. Congressmen, a lot of great things you're

304
00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 1: working on. We're going to check back on those constitutional amendments.

305
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:27,880
Speaker 1: I have a funny feeling they're going to catch fire

306
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,240
Speaker 1: pretty quickly with the American public. Great to have you

307
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:31,680
Speaker 1: on the show, Tay, Thanks for joining us.

308
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:32,880
Speaker 4: Thank you for having me.

309
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:34,160
Speaker 3: If you want to see more, you can go to

310
00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:37,400
Speaker 3: Verrett House dot gov slash reform and we're allowing people

311
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:40,880
Speaker 3: to submit their own ideas for this reform agenda as well.

312
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 1: What a great idea. Let the people lad out it.

313
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,240
Speaker 1: That's a good thing. Congress is great to have you out.

314
00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:47,960
Speaker 1: Thanks for joining us. All right, folks, we talked last

315
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:50,840
Speaker 1: week about that extraordinary raid in Fulton County, Georgia. I

316
00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:53,520
Speaker 1: talked about the search Wark returns. There's so much more

317
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:56,160
Speaker 1: that the DJ is doing right now to protect our elections.

318
00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:57,920
Speaker 1: The woman that's on the front lines for that, the

319
00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:00,640
Speaker 1: Assistant Attorney General Civil Rights, Harmy Dell. She's going to

320
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:07,840
Speaker 1: join us next right after these messages. Hey, America, the

321
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:10,400
Speaker 1: FBI has been warning about a type of real estate

322
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:13,360
Speaker 1: fraud on the rise called home title theft, and your

323
00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 1: equity is the target.

324
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 2: Here's how it works.

325
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:18,520
Speaker 1: Criminals forge your signature on a single document, use a

326
00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:20,880
Speaker 1: fake notary stamp, then follow them with the county and

327
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:24,280
Speaker 1: just like that, boom, they're on record as owning your

328
00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:27,680
Speaker 1: home using your ownership. They then take out loans against

329
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:29,720
Speaker 1: your equit or even sell your property and you're not

330
00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:31,960
Speaker 1: going to know about it to get a foreclosure or

331
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 1: collection notice in the mail.

332
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:34,560
Speaker 2: That's not going to be a good moment.

00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 1: Welcome back everybody. Over the last week, if you've been

349
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:26,440
Speaker 1: reading Justin News, you've seen some very important stories. Yes,

350
00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:30,119
Speaker 1: the Justice Department has arrested nine people who intruded on

351
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:35,400
Speaker 1: a Christian mass service. They're investigating more activists who interrupted

352
00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:39,600
Speaker 1: a event at a Jewish temple. You've seen numerous cases

353
00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:42,080
Speaker 1: brought against states who won't clean up their voter rolls

354
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:44,080
Speaker 1: or who won't turn over their voter roles to ensure

355
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:45,120
Speaker 1: that they are cleaned up.

356
00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:47,320
Speaker 2: The person behind all.

357
00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 1: Of those extraordinary actions is the Assistanttorney General for Civil

358
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:53,439
Speaker 1: Rights at the US Justice Department, and she joins us

359
00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 1: right now.

360
00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:56,320
Speaker 2: Our good friend Harmy Dylon. Harmy, great to have you

361
00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:57,040
Speaker 2: on the show again.

362
00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:00,119
Speaker 5: Thanks for having me, John.

363
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:02,680
Speaker 1: All right, there's no doubt that the Attorney General, the

364
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:05,040
Speaker 1: President of the United States and you are at the

365
00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:08,439
Speaker 1: forefront of making sure that houses of worship can remain

366
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:12,080
Speaker 1: that and not become the targets of these radical protesters.

367
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 2: These radical insurrectionists.

368
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:15,960
Speaker 1: Tell us a little bit about where we are in

369
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:19,360
Speaker 1: the process and what message you want those who want

370
00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:21,719
Speaker 1: to interrupt houses of worship to hear tonight.

371
00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:24,879
Speaker 6: Well, thank you, John, And this is a really important

372
00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:27,480
Speaker 6: investigation for the DOJ, and it's part of a growing

373
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:31,399
Speaker 6: group of cases. We're just at about two weeks after

374
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:36,119
Speaker 6: the incident in Saint Paul, Minnesota, and we acted very

375
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:38,200
Speaker 6: rapidly in that case. We first went to the court

376
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 6: to try to quickly get the criminal complaint, and then

377
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:44,879
Speaker 6: the court wanted us to go to a grand jury,

378
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:46,960
Speaker 6: so we prepared that and we went and we did that,

379
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:48,960
Speaker 6: and by the time we did that, we'd had some

380
00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 6: opportunity to investigate further and strengthen our case that was presented.

381
00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:56,920
Speaker 6: And now I think the world can see the unsealed

382
00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:01,560
Speaker 6: indictment that not a judge, not the not the Attorney General,

383
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:08,160
Speaker 6: but ordinary Minnesotans agreed in a grand jury that there

384
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:10,600
Speaker 6: was probable cause to believe that at least the nine

385
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:17,040
Speaker 6: individuals charged had committed serious crimes. And so they're presumed innocent.

386
00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:19,360
Speaker 6: Of course, some of them have lawyers already, and we're

387
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:20,960
Speaker 6: going to have all of that play out in court,

388
00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:24,320
Speaker 6: but they're about thirty to forty people who interrupted that

389
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:29,600
Speaker 6: church service, terrorized children, separated children from their parents, caused

390
00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:32,880
Speaker 6: people to flee in panic a full packed church service,

391
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:36,320
Speaker 6: and really ruined it for them and possibly scared some

392
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:38,800
Speaker 6: people out of coming back to church. And so the

393
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:42,320
Speaker 6: big picture message here, John, is that in this Department

394
00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:46,159
Speaker 6: of Justice, we have a zero tolerance policy for anybody

395
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:50,960
Speaker 6: interrupting any house of worship, invading it, terrorizing people, or

396
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,639
Speaker 6: even just blocking them from entering or exiting or putting

397
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:56,360
Speaker 6: them in fear. And that goes for all houses of worship,

398
00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:59,679
Speaker 6: and we will not tolerate it here, no matter who's

399
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,360
Speaker 6: doing it, no matter what they call themselves, if they're

400
00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:05,280
Speaker 6: carrying a mic or whatever, whatever kind of house of

401
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:09,000
Speaker 6: worship it is because if we allow this to stand, John,

402
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:12,320
Speaker 6: you can imagine incidents of all kinds of people of

403
00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 6: all political persuasions going into mosques and synagogues as they

404
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:21,080
Speaker 6: have been and other churches and doing their protests there.

405
00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:23,399
Speaker 6: You cannot do a protest anywhere you want. There are

406
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,399
Speaker 6: time place in manner restrictions under the First Amendment, and

407
00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:30,639
Speaker 6: private properties generally off limits unless somebody invites you on there.

408
00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:33,720
Speaker 6: So I am telling you that this is just the

409
00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:38,320
Speaker 6: start of this particular investigation, and I have several others open,

410
00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:42,520
Speaker 6: and numerous prosecutors as well in law enforcement officials and

411
00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:44,520
Speaker 6: multiple jurisdictions working on these cases.

412
00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, anyone who's in the path of those cases. No,

413
00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:52,240
Speaker 1: you mean serious business, and we've seen it play out.

414
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:55,040
Speaker 1: I mean, the indictment is so chock full of detail

415
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:58,720
Speaker 1: of the terror that these people felt, and also in

416
00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:00,359
Speaker 1: the fact that this is a community that just was

417
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,600
Speaker 1: hit by a church shooting a few months before this,

418
00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:06,240
Speaker 1: so they were even more mortified that maybe that was underway.

419
00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:09,040
Speaker 1: Don Lemon has gone out to say, I'm just a journalist.

420
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:12,280
Speaker 1: I'm being singled out. When you look at the evidence

421
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 1: that you presented against Tim, is there a legitimate claim

422
00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:17,919
Speaker 1: for him to claim he was a journalist there or

423
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:21,000
Speaker 1: do you feel strongly that he was participating along with

424
00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:23,639
Speaker 1: the other people attacking that event.

425
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:27,439
Speaker 6: Well, so, first of all, there's no carve out in

426
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:31,560
Speaker 6: the statute or frankly in the law for journalists. They

427
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:37,120
Speaker 6: don't get to participate in obstructing, blocking, harassing, terrorizing, and

428
00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 6: generally conspiring to do all of the above and get

429
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:44,760
Speaker 6: away with it. And If you doubt me, look at

430
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:51,000
Speaker 6: the number of journalists that the Garland and Biden DOJ prosecuted, harassed,

431
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:54,200
Speaker 6: and went after. They did this in cases that were

432
00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:56,560
Speaker 6: far weaker than the case we have here. I did

433
00:21:56,600 --> 00:22:00,359
Speaker 6: not create this law. Congress created the Face Act, and

434
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:04,000
Speaker 6: this Department of Justice, under Attorney General Pam Bondi, is

435
00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:07,479
Speaker 6: the first in history to actually use it to protect

436
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:10,840
Speaker 6: houses of worship, as it was intended originally by Congress

437
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:13,040
Speaker 6: as one of the protected categories.

438
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:13,400
Speaker 2: And so.

439
00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:17,440
Speaker 6: The laws in the United States apply to journalists as well.

440
00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:19,560
Speaker 6: They don't get to say, well, I'm speeding because I'm

441
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:22,639
Speaker 6: running to the scene of a protest, and therefore I

442
00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:25,080
Speaker 6: should get out of my speeding ticket. No, if you're

443
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:26,919
Speaker 6: part of it, and people can look at the video

444
00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:29,800
Speaker 6: that Don Levin put out himself and the other so

445
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:33,400
Speaker 6: called journalists and judge for themselves. If somebody you look

446
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:37,240
Speaker 6: at the indictment, when somebody is identifying as we if

447
00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:40,400
Speaker 6: somebody is turning off the cameras to make sure that

448
00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:44,280
Speaker 6: parts of the conspiracy are not exposed prematurely, I think

449
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:46,119
Speaker 6: that's going to be something that a jury gets to

450
00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:49,760
Speaker 6: decide at some point. So there will be more people

451
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,239
Speaker 6: arrested in this case. I'm confident there are many more

452
00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:54,480
Speaker 6: who were involved than the ones we've identified so far,

453
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 6: and we just will not rest for this.

454
00:22:57,720 --> 00:22:59,439
Speaker 5: In the United States, but not allow it to happen.

455
00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 6: I'm proud of the team that worked so rapidly to

456
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:07,479
Speaker 6: give confidence and reassurance to this congregation and indeed all

457
00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:10,440
Speaker 6: congregations in the United States that this will not stand

458
00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 6: in America.

459
00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:13,600
Speaker 2: It's a pretty fast turnaround.

460
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:15,360
Speaker 1: People don't realize it takes time to do these things,

461
00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:17,040
Speaker 1: but you guys have turned a lot around in a

462
00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:21,160
Speaker 1: very short period of time. There are statutes that create

463
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:24,480
Speaker 1: enhancements for a crime if it was racially motivated.

464
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:27,520
Speaker 2: When Don Lemon came out after this, he.

465
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,040
Speaker 1: Said part of his motivations he considered the people inside

466
00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:33,399
Speaker 1: that church to be white supremacists or behind white supremacy,

467
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:36,679
Speaker 1: clearly injecting race into it. Is there any possibility that

468
00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:39,240
Speaker 1: enhancements could be added because of those comments.

469
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:43,160
Speaker 6: Look, there are all kinds of additional statutes that may

470
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:46,040
Speaker 6: or may not apply. Our job is number one is

471
00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:48,399
Speaker 6: law enforcement to shut this down and make sure that

472
00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:52,840
Speaker 6: it doesn't happen again, to protect people exercising their first

473
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,760
Speaker 6: Amendment right, and people forget that the right to pray

474
00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:58,440
Speaker 6: in peace in America is literally one of the things

475
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:00,840
Speaker 6: that this country was founded on, one of the key

476
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:04,080
Speaker 6: things this country was founded on. And secondly, it's protected

477
00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:06,960
Speaker 6: by the First Amendment. And so that was our focus.

478
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:09,639
Speaker 6: We've done that, we've gone into court, we've arrested people,

479
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:14,160
Speaker 6: and now we're expanding our investigation.

480
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,480
Speaker 5: And we have a lot of tools. We'll be using

481
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:17,200
Speaker 5: those tools.

482
00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:19,400
Speaker 6: This case is among the top priorities of the Civil

483
00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:25,000
Speaker 6: Rights Division, and if further evidence comes to light, that

484
00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:27,840
Speaker 6: allows us to add additional charges, and I won't speculate

485
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:30,479
Speaker 6: which I think you can expect those to follow.

486
00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, on the notion of who where else this case

487
00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,000
Speaker 1: could look. Whether you look at the church protests or

488
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:41,360
Speaker 1: you look at the larger anti ICE actions where law

489
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:44,119
Speaker 1: enforcement's being impeded and attacked every day. There are the

490
00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:45,639
Speaker 1: people who carry out the acts that you.

491
00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:46,399
Speaker 2: See on camera.

492
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:50,840
Speaker 1: Then there are those who fund and provide logistical material support.

493
00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:55,240
Speaker 1: If you funded or you helped arrange the church protests,

494
00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:57,920
Speaker 1: but you weren't there, or if you fund it or

495
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:00,639
Speaker 1: you helped the arrange some of these ops instructions of

496
00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:04,200
Speaker 1: ICE activities, in Minneapolis. Are you in danger being indicted

497
00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:05,560
Speaker 1: for material support?

498
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:10,560
Speaker 6: Well, I think everything is on the table, John, But

499
00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:15,160
Speaker 6: the Biden DOJ actually pioneered the use of the Klan Act.

500
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:20,280
Speaker 6: They did an older and important conspiracy statute in the

501
00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:23,719
Speaker 6: context of anti abortion protests. And I've actually gone into

502
00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:26,760
Speaker 6: a court to defend the use of that conspiracy statute

503
00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:28,520
Speaker 6: in connection with the Face Act, and I won that

504
00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:33,440
Speaker 6: case in the Eleventh Circuit. So anybody whose role included conspiring,

505
00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:36,399
Speaker 6: whether they were there or not, could be in trouble

506
00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:37,399
Speaker 6: with the United States.

507
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:40,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a very important moment.

508
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,000
Speaker 1: I want to turn to another important project that you

509
00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:44,920
Speaker 1: work on day and you've been doing this for years,

510
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,400
Speaker 1: but now in the Justice Department it's having real impact,

511
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,920
Speaker 1: and that is ensuring election integrity, starting with voter rolls

512
00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:53,399
Speaker 1: and then going back and looking at anything all the

513
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:55,920
Speaker 1: way back to twenty twenty, which there was an FBI

514
00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:57,919
Speaker 1: raid last week that we know for sure from the

515
00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:00,600
Speaker 1: people in Fulton County was about the twenty twenty election.

516
00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,520
Speaker 1: Tell us where we are in that process and where

517
00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:06,280
Speaker 1: you think what the American people should know about what

518
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:09,960
Speaker 1: you're trying to achieve with your election integrity push.

519
00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:10,320
Speaker 2: Right.

520
00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:13,199
Speaker 6: So I think this is pretty straightforward. I'm surprised the

521
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:16,680
Speaker 6: amount of controversy it's created. But under the Help America

522
00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:20,160
Speaker 6: Vote Act and other federal statutes, states have an obligation

523
00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:23,440
Speaker 6: to keep their voter rules clean. This is a basic concept.

524
00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:26,520
Speaker 6: It applies to the integrity of our federal elections. And

525
00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:29,359
Speaker 6: you know a lot of states are behind in doing it.

526
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:32,600
Speaker 6: They don't use all the tools appropriate to do it,

527
00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:35,639
Speaker 6: and that decreases confidence in the public. And I'm not

528
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:37,919
Speaker 6: saying this is all states. I'm saying this is many states.

529
00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:40,679
Speaker 6: And so what you have is millions of ballots floating

530
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,680
Speaker 6: around in the mail that may be duplicates or dead

531
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:46,240
Speaker 6: people or people who aren't citizens, none of whom are

532
00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:49,400
Speaker 6: entitled to vote in federal elections. So what we're doing

533
00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:51,680
Speaker 6: is helping states clean up their voter rolls. And I'm

534
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:54,960
Speaker 6: happy to say that we have voluntary compliance now from

535
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:57,800
Speaker 6: fourteen states. I think we're in the final stages of

536
00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:02,280
Speaker 6: getting that from an initial additional four states. We have

537
00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:05,879
Speaker 6: states that are we haven't quite sued them yet, but

538
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 6: that's coming this week and next week. And then we

539
00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:15,720
Speaker 6: have twenty four states and one district, the District of

540
00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:19,000
Speaker 6: Columbia that I'm currently in litigation with to get their

541
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:23,040
Speaker 6: voter rules, and those cases are in various stages. Some

542
00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 6: are moving forward, some are heading towards appeal. And we

543
00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:31,360
Speaker 6: are going to keep marching forward until we either get

544
00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:34,200
Speaker 6: all the voter rules or we take this case all

545
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:36,600
Speaker 6: the way up to the Supreme Court, because under the

546
00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:39,600
Speaker 6: nineteen sixty Civil Rights Act, the Attorney General is entitled

547
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:42,440
Speaker 6: to review and expect this data. Now, some of the

548
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:46,640
Speaker 6: goofy responses that I've gotten from secretaries of state have included, oh,

549
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:51,119
Speaker 6: my goodness, this is highly confidential social security information. We

550
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:54,400
Speaker 6: can't possibly give that to the federal government. I mean, John,

551
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:56,359
Speaker 6: that's just silly, because the federal government, of course the

552
00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:59,680
Speaker 6: issue is the social security numbers, and people like routinely

553
00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:01,399
Speaker 6: give it up out on a daily basis when they

554
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:03,560
Speaker 6: go to the doctor and they go to the DMV, etc.

555
00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:03,920
Speaker 7: Etc.

556
00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:05,679
Speaker 5: That's very silly.

557
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:07,240
Speaker 6: And also a lot of these states that are not

558
00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:10,960
Speaker 6: giving the government the voteral data, they freely give it

559
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:13,520
Speaker 6: out to liberal groups so that they can use it

560
00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:17,120
Speaker 6: to chase votes and voters in a targeted way. So

561
00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:20,959
Speaker 6: that's kind of two faced to do that. Now, Georgia

562
00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:23,040
Speaker 6: is one of the states where we have multiple lawsuits

563
00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 6: going for the voter roles, but also for those Fulton

564
00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:28,199
Speaker 6: County ballots. It was an unusual situation in which there

565
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:31,120
Speaker 6: was litigation there, and so a Fulton County had preserved

566
00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:34,760
Speaker 6: those ballots. But now one of my colleagues in the

567
00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:40,560
Speaker 6: DOJ has also gone in and executed a criminal search

568
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:43,920
Speaker 6: warrant after getting a magistrate to sign off on probable cause.

569
00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:46,760
Speaker 5: And so generally speaking, john.

570
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:50,040
Speaker 6: Criminal cases take precedence over civil cases in our federal

571
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:52,920
Speaker 6: system of justice, and so we're going to figure out

572
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:56,760
Speaker 6: the logistics there with the court and with our colleagues and.

573
00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:59,040
Speaker 5: See what those ballots show.

574
00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:02,920
Speaker 6: I think it was highly unusual a lot of things

575
00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:05,920
Speaker 6: that happen in the twenty twenty election in the swing states,

576
00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:09,280
Speaker 6: As you mentioned, I was involved in some of those,

577
00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:13,560
Speaker 6: as you know, a volunteer, and so we're going to

578
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:15,560
Speaker 6: see what we see and whatever the evidence shows. I

579
00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,120
Speaker 6: think it's important for the American people to know what

580
00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:23,719
Speaker 6: happened in Fulton County and in Georgia and to prevent

581
00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:27,520
Speaker 6: gross errors or malfeasance from happening.

582
00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:27,800
Speaker 5: Again.

583
00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:29,960
Speaker 6: I think that's just important for the integrity and confidence

584
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 6: of the public in our elections. And my final point

585
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:35,160
Speaker 6: on this is in the rest of the world, they

586
00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:37,560
Speaker 6: don't vote this way. I mean, you know, we like

587
00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:39,280
Speaker 6: to laugh at the rest of the world being backward

588
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:42,680
Speaker 6: or what have you countries. I mean, the entire Brexit

589
00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:44,880
Speaker 6: vote in the UK was conducted on a single day

590
00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:47,080
Speaker 6: and they got the results after, you know, a couple

591
00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:47,800
Speaker 6: hours after.

592
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:50,560
Speaker 5: The polls closed. They're just these.

593
00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:54,200
Speaker 6: Paper ballots, and they don't send ballots in the mail

594
00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:57,040
Speaker 6: that can be picked up by other people or voted.

595
00:29:57,080 --> 00:29:57,320
Speaker 5: I don't.

596
00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:59,960
Speaker 6: They don't allow people to self identify as an American citizen.

597
00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:03,720
Speaker 6: That's ludicrous, and so a lot of these things really

598
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:05,760
Speaker 6: need to be changed. But at a minimum, I think

599
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:08,800
Speaker 6: we can all agree people should be voting only once,

600
00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:12,400
Speaker 6: and it should be only American citizens, and we should

601
00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 6: not be opening ourselves up for fraud. And so we

602
00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:18,800
Speaker 6: are here to ensure the integrity of our elections.

603
00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:21,680
Speaker 1: I have a funny feeling that twenty twenty six will

604
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:24,000
Speaker 1: be a very different election than the last six or eight,

605
00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:26,840
Speaker 1: just because of the work you're doing right now, Harmie.

606
00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:28,400
Speaker 1: Such a great honor to have you on the show.

607
00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:30,320
Speaker 1: We're gonna be watching close to all this stuff, including

608
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:31,880
Speaker 1: the litigation coming up later this week.

609
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:32,880
Speaker 2: Thanks for joining us.

610
00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:35,880
Speaker 5: Thanks for having me, John, Yeah.

611
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:36,480
Speaker 2: Great conversation.

612
00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:38,680
Speaker 1: Is Zobi's all right, folks, We're gona take a commercial break.

613
00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,120
Speaker 1: When we come back, we have the newest member of

614
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:44,320
Speaker 1: the Justin News podcast network to discuss her debut episode.

615
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:45,640
Speaker 2: You're not going to want to miss it, say Tube.

616
00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:58,440
Speaker 8: We'll be right back, Welcome back to America.

617
00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:00,880
Speaker 1: A couple months ago, we announced the very citing acquisition

618
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:04,040
Speaker 1: here at justin News. The Post Millennial and Human Events

619
00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:07,000
Speaker 1: are joining our family. And I was excited because that

620
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:08,400
Speaker 1: meant I was going to get to work with one

621
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:10,080
Speaker 1: of the great journalists I've always wanted to work more

622
00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:12,040
Speaker 1: closely with her. Her name is Libby Evans, and this

623
00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:16,240
Speaker 1: week Lebby started a fantastic new podcast on the Justin

624
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:20,040
Speaker 1: News podcast network. It's called The Pod Millennial with Libby Evans,

625
00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:21,520
Speaker 1: and she's here to join us right now and talk

626
00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:23,400
Speaker 1: about it. Libby, great to have you on the show.

627
00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:24,560
Speaker 1: Congrats on the debut.

628
00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:27,680
Speaker 9: Thank you so much. I'm really excited about it.

629
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:30,120
Speaker 2: I love this listen.

630
00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:31,880
Speaker 1: I learned in the thirty five to forty years i've

631
00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:35,160
Speaker 1: been covering politics, and politics is downstream from culture, and

632
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:39,240
Speaker 1: what happens in culture usually trickles down. Your podcast, I think,

633
00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:42,120
Speaker 1: captures that dynamic so brilliantly tell us a little bit

634
00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:43,640
Speaker 1: about what it is all about.

635
00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:45,040
Speaker 2: Yeah.

636
00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:48,480
Speaker 10: So, my new podcast, launched on the Justin News podcast

637
00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:51,760
Speaker 10: network is the pod Millennial. It's a takeoff on the

638
00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:54,640
Speaker 10: post Millennial, which we're also very happy to be working

639
00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:57,120
Speaker 10: with you on that, John, And it is.

640
00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:58,240
Speaker 9: A culture podcast.

641
00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:00,960
Speaker 10: That's where you can find us on i Tunes and

642
00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:04,520
Speaker 10: other platforms, and we're talking about what's going on in culture,

643
00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:08,080
Speaker 10: everything from the Grammys to the super Bowl halftime show,

644
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:10,640
Speaker 10: to high arts and all of the rest of it.

645
00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:12,960
Speaker 9: Our first guest was Michael Knowles.

646
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:16,560
Speaker 10: We had actually a fascinating conversation on our first episode

647
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:20,960
Speaker 10: that dropped this past Tuesday, and we talked about art

648
00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:22,640
Speaker 10: and Dylan Mulvaaney.

649
00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:24,719
Speaker 9: We talked all about those things.

650
00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:29,000
Speaker 10: And this coming week, starting tomorrow, our podcast is with

651
00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:32,840
Speaker 10: Jack PISOBC and we talked about the super Bowl halftime

652
00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:36,200
Speaker 10: show and that's been That was a great conversation. We

653
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:39,880
Speaker 10: talked about bad Bunny and Obama and jay Z and

654
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:44,880
Speaker 10: how we lost the super Bowl halftime show to corporate leftism.

655
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:46,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, that we have.

656
00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:49,920
Speaker 1: But there are new shows on the horizon bike tpusa's

657
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:51,960
Speaker 1: alternative show that I think is going to be a

658
00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:54,840
Speaker 1: big hit this weekend. I want to talk a little

659
00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:57,800
Speaker 1: bit about last night's Grammy Awards because I think we

660
00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:01,280
Speaker 1: saw on display what the last strategy, which is they

661
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:04,920
Speaker 1: really want to be a lawless and disorderly society America.

662
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:08,280
Speaker 1: They just don't believe in law and order anymore. How

663
00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:10,600
Speaker 1: does that play with everyday Americans? If read every day American,

664
00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:12,200
Speaker 1: you turn on, you watch them for a little bit,

665
00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:13,680
Speaker 1: what do you take away when you hear about four

666
00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:14,640
Speaker 1: or five of those speeches?

667
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,160
Speaker 9: Yeah, so I watched the Grammys. I tuned in.

668
00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:21,480
Speaker 10: I'm always fascinated to see the ridiculous things that people

669
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:23,000
Speaker 10: are spouting off from the stage.

670
00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:25,760
Speaker 9: How they think that they're still relevant, you know. And

671
00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:28,000
Speaker 9: also I'm interested in the fashion, so I check that

672
00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:28,640
Speaker 9: out as well.

673
00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:32,320
Speaker 10: There were several artists who, upon receiving their awards, screamed

674
00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:35,640
Speaker 10: about ice and screamed about immigration. There were a lot

675
00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:39,600
Speaker 10: of cursed words flowing from Billie Eilish and Bad Bunny

676
00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:41,480
Speaker 10: and all of the rest of them going out there

677
00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:44,600
Speaker 10: and complaining about ice. You'll remember, however, that this is

678
00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:46,760
Speaker 10: not the first thing that they've complained about.

679
00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:47,880
Speaker 9: From the Grammy stage.

680
00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:52,360
Speaker 10: They complained about BLM trams, climate change, and of course

681
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:58,160
Speaker 10: Gaza and the Palestinian causes. So they are putting all

682
00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:00,480
Speaker 10: of these together, and as soon as they come up

683
00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:02,920
Speaker 10: with a new cause, they'll scream about that as well,

684
00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:06,200
Speaker 10: because it's not really about any one of these given

685
00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:09,760
Speaker 10: concepts or ideas or concerns that they have. The real

686
00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:13,920
Speaker 10: point is to hate America and destabilize this country, and that's.

687
00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:14,520
Speaker 9: What they're all about.

688
00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:18,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, got some big news in the cultural world last night,

689
00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:21,839
Speaker 1: President Trump announcing that the Kennedy Trump Kennedy Center will

690
00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:24,240
Speaker 1: shut down for a couple of years for some big renovations.

691
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:27,759
Speaker 1: A lot of people pondering about that today. How does

692
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:29,040
Speaker 1: that hit in the culture world.

693
00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:32,320
Speaker 9: Yeah, I think this is absolutely a terrible idea.

694
00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:35,799
Speaker 10: The Kennedy Center, for sure, has needed renovations for a

695
00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:36,319
Speaker 10: long time.

696
00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:37,040
Speaker 9: That's not new.

697
00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:40,839
Speaker 10: Any theater space is always ripe for changes and new

698
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:45,200
Speaker 10: dressing rooms and new draperies and new you know, sound

699
00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:48,520
Speaker 10: equipment or what have you. But the Trump administration has

700
00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:51,799
Speaker 10: two years they have taken the Kennedy Center over they

701
00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:53,359
Speaker 10: could do anything with it.

702
00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:55,840
Speaker 9: There are glorious performing art spaces.

703
00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:59,080
Speaker 10: Put up a little masking tape or electrical tape or whatever,

704
00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:01,600
Speaker 10: and let's get the art on the boards. That's what

705
00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:04,160
Speaker 10: we should be seeing. They should be doing new plays

706
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:07,319
Speaker 10: by playwrights who are not super woke. They should be

707
00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:12,160
Speaker 10: doing non propagandist performances and symphonies.

708
00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:13,200
Speaker 9: And operas and all of the rest of it.

709
00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:16,040
Speaker 10: And for one, I'm pretty disappointed to see that they

710
00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:18,520
Speaker 10: are putting the health of the building ahead of the

711
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:19,560
Speaker 10: health of the culture.

712
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:22,279
Speaker 9: We need some good art work to be seen.

713
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:25,279
Speaker 10: We've already seen so many artists who are refusing to

714
00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:28,000
Speaker 10: show their work at the Kennedy Center, Philip Glass for

715
00:35:28,120 --> 00:35:31,279
Speaker 10: one of them, Lynn Manuel Miranda, and there have been

716
00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:35,280
Speaker 10: others who said, no, absolutely, audiences who attend the Kennedy

717
00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:36,200
Speaker 10: Center do not.

718
00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:39,400
Speaker 9: Deserve to see my work because Trump is the president,

719
00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:40,680
Speaker 9: and that's a problem.

720
00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:42,839
Speaker 10: And so I think it's really a shame that they're

721
00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:46,200
Speaker 10: not going to be delivering fresh new work to audiences

722
00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:47,400
Speaker 10: who are craving it.

723
00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:49,399
Speaker 9: Conservative patrons of the arts have.

724
00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:52,840
Speaker 10: Been shut out for too long from seeing work that

725
00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:55,840
Speaker 10: aligns with their values or that just simply is not

726
00:35:56,040 --> 00:36:00,840
Speaker 10: propagandist art activism. And I had really had high hopes

727
00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:04,080
Speaker 10: for the Kennedy Center under the Trump administration, and those

728
00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:05,440
Speaker 10: have been dashed by.

729
00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:06,040
Speaker 9: This new news.

730
00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:09,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, there was a saying in the theater the show

731
00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:11,719
Speaker 1: must go on, but apparently not in Washington. We'll see

732
00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:13,520
Speaker 1: if that turns about in a couple of days with

733
00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:15,799
Speaker 1: the uproar from the right. I actually think up for

734
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:18,040
Speaker 1: uproar from the right is actually having an impact at

735
00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:20,040
Speaker 1: the White House. It'll be interesting to see. Before we

736
00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:22,480
Speaker 1: let you go, Libby, what's the best way for people

737

Speaker 1: Coming up next, I'll tell you about a huge health

754
00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:09,600
Speaker 1: issue a lot of Americans have and the easy way

755
00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:12,080
Speaker 1: you can fix it. We'll have that with Mark Warner

756
00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:24,600
Speaker 1: right after this. Welcome back to America.

757
00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:26,600
Speaker 2: If I seem a little chipper lately, and I do,

758
00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:28,120
Speaker 2: it's because I've.

759
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:30,080
Speaker 1: Been sleeping a lot better. And that's because I recently

760
00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:31,240
Speaker 1: got a ghost bedding.

761
00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:31,640
Speaker 2: I know.

762
00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:33,960
Speaker 1: I got to tell you. I'm an investigative reporter. I'm

763
00:37:34,040 --> 00:37:38,080
Speaker 1: trained to be doubtful about any claim. But I got

764
00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:41,080
Speaker 1: this new mattress and it has changed the way I sleep,

765
00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:42,760
Speaker 1: It changes the way I wake up in the morning.

766
00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:45,120
Speaker 1: It is a life changing experience. And by the way,

767
00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:47,200
Speaker 1: I never thought a mattress would make a difference.

768
00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:47,640
Speaker 2: It does.

769
00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:49,440
Speaker 1: And I've been doing a lot of research and one

770
00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:51,040
Speaker 1: of the things you find out is that a lot

771
00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:54,480
Speaker 1: of people talk about being micro tired. Something I felt

772
00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:56,200
Speaker 1: a lot of time drowsy during the middle day, like

773
00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:58,319
Speaker 1: I should be drowsy. It's where your brain's half a

774
00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:01,120
Speaker 1: set behind you. Your body's heavy, you need that coffee

775
00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:04,280
Speaker 1: just to get through the day. It's a real dynamic.

776
00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:07,480
Speaker 1: And since I began sleeping on my new ghost pad,

777
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:10,440
Speaker 1: I am sleeping better and I don't have that feeling anymore.

778
00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:13,799
Speaker 1: Here to describe how that came to be. It's not

779
00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:16,960
Speaker 1: just a piece of furniture mattress. It is a health

780
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:19,719
Speaker 1: apparatus in your family. He's the CEO and founder of

781
00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:22,000
Speaker 1: ghost ped Mark Warner Mark. Great to have you on

782
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:22,560
Speaker 1: the show again.

783
00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:26,280
Speaker 11: Thank you, John, Thank you for having ghost Bed. Well

784
00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:27,440
Speaker 11: we got done.

785
00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:29,120
Speaker 2: Thank you for letting me out what I love it.

786
00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:33,680
Speaker 7: It's great, great, great testimonial for us, and I'm glad

787
00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:36,239
Speaker 7: you're enjoying it. And your problem with kind of being

788
00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:39,280
Speaker 7: micro tired on and on and on is just that little,

789
00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:44,839
Speaker 7: slowly and slowly you're getting bad sleep pains here and there,

790
00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:47,520
Speaker 7: and you don't realize it, and a couple of years ago, by,

791
00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:49,160
Speaker 7: a couple of years go by, and then all of

792
00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:51,120
Speaker 7: a sudden you get the bright light to get a

793
00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:54,920
Speaker 7: new mattress, hopefully a ghostbed mattress, and you notice it immediately.

794
00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:58,759
Speaker 7: How much better you feel? You got that pep back

795
00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:01,560
Speaker 7: in your step. You feel better, you're not angry when

796
00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:05,520
Speaker 7: you're driving, less coffee. You know you're healthy because sleeping

797
00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:08,880
Speaker 7: and restorate you restore your body health. Why you sleep

798
00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:11,799
Speaker 7: both seven or eight hours. President Trump only gets three

799
00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:16,560
Speaker 7: or four, but he has special special But it's really

800
00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:19,040
Speaker 7: so important to get a good night's sleep, to really

801
00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:22,319
Speaker 7: restore your body and to get back on an even keel.

802
00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:23,840
Speaker 11: Your brain works better.

803
00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:26,160
Speaker 7: You know, if kids in school will do better, you'll

804
00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:29,239
Speaker 7: work better, You'll get along better with your friends and

805
00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:30,520
Speaker 7: family or anybody.

806
00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:32,319
Speaker 11: Just because you're you're better off.

807
00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:34,640
Speaker 2: You know.

808
00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:36,960
Speaker 1: I would have said, until I bought my ghost bead

809
00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:39,440
Speaker 1: that I would put a mattress in the category of furniture.

810
00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:43,520
Speaker 1: But now I realize the experience. This really is a

811
00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:46,080
Speaker 1: health device. And there's particularly the way you approached it,

812
00:39:46,120 --> 00:39:50,239
Speaker 1: which is you actually have engineering that really deals with

813
00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:53,160
Speaker 1: things like temperature transfer and how your body feels and

814
00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:54,480
Speaker 1: how the mattress.

815
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:55,080
Speaker 2: Shapes to you.

816
00:39:55,080 --> 00:39:57,200
Speaker 1: You really put the health into the thought of the

817
00:39:57,200 --> 00:39:57,759
Speaker 1: design of this.

818
00:39:57,840 --> 00:40:02,520
Speaker 7: Isn't you a tremendous I come from originally Werner Ladder,

819
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:04,839
Speaker 7: which was started by my grandfather one hundred years ago,

820
00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:08,719
Speaker 7: So I was raised in a highly engineered environment where

821
00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:11,560
Speaker 7: my dad invented the aluminum ladder and the alloy to

822
00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:14,719
Speaker 7: make it and fiberglass ladder. So I learned all that

823
00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:17,480
Speaker 7: kind of stuff through the years, and then twenty five

824
00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:20,520
Speaker 7: years ago I ended up starting Ghostbed with my wife

825
00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:21,680
Speaker 7: as a family business.

826
00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:23,720
Speaker 11: But the real reason I started.

827
00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:26,080
Speaker 7: It was because I've had three neck surgeries and I

828
00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:29,480
Speaker 7: couldn't find a mattress or a pillow or anything that

829
00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:30,640
Speaker 7: worked for my situation.

830
00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:31,760
Speaker 11: I was always in pain.

831
00:40:32,120 --> 00:40:36,120
Speaker 7: So from my engineering experience and life experience at Werner,

832
00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:39,320
Speaker 7: I invented my own and that kind of started ghost

833
00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:41,560
Speaker 7: Bed and that's been a great change.

834
00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:43,440
Speaker 11: And since then we have lots of patents.

835
00:40:43,640 --> 00:40:47,800
Speaker 7: We've invented cooling technologies, which I believe in your mattress,

836
00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:50,080
Speaker 7: you've got the cooling technology. I mean today it's a

837
00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:53,000
Speaker 7: cool day, depending on what the temperature is in your house,

838
00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:55,640
Speaker 7: what the heat is, but it makes such a difference

839
00:40:55,680 --> 00:40:57,680
Speaker 7: because the body needs to be at the right kind

840
00:40:57,719 --> 00:41:00,160
Speaker 7: of temperature a little bit cooler when you sleep to

841
00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:04,120
Speaker 7: get a better night's sleep. So we've patented and developed

842
00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:08,000
Speaker 7: all kinds of special technologies for cooling. We've done stuff

843
00:41:08,040 --> 00:41:11,799
Speaker 7: with the phones, we've done stuff with the springs, making hybrids.

844
00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:16,160
Speaker 7: We've done stuff with the adjustable bases, bringing in new

845
00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:19,240
Speaker 7: technologies like our new feature will be introducing next quarter

846
00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:23,120
Speaker 7: anti snore in our adjustmble basis, So when one of

847
00:41:23,120 --> 00:41:27,040
Speaker 7: the partners is snoring, it will react to that by

848
00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:29,040
Speaker 7: lifting up the base. Maybe a little bit of the

849
00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:31,879
Speaker 7: massage treatment will kick in and that person, if it's

850
00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:36,360
Speaker 7: a normal snoring issue as opposed to a deviated septum,

851
00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:39,360
Speaker 7: that will open up the passageway and they'll stop storing.

852
00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:41,400
Speaker 7: So you won't need the elbow from the partner, you

853
00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:43,839
Speaker 7: won't need the pillow thrown at you. It'll work out

854
00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:46,319
Speaker 7: just great. So that's one of our new inventions that

855
00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:48,759
Speaker 7: we've come out with that will be introducing in a

856
00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:49,320
Speaker 7: few months.

857
00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:52,359
Speaker 2: That's pretty exciting, all right.

858
00:41:52,360 --> 00:41:54,600
Speaker 1: So I've seen this, and I've gotten a message like

859
00:41:54,640 --> 00:41:57,080
Speaker 1: this on a DM recently on X from one of

860
00:41:57,160 --> 00:41:58,600
Speaker 1: our viewers.

861
00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:00,520
Speaker 2: Here, if likes to.

862
00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:02,680
Speaker 1: Sleep on a firm mattress, I'm a more soft mattress,

863
00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:04,480
Speaker 1: and she likes to be more elevated, and I'd like

864
00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:07,200
Speaker 1: to be a little let more recline. How do you

865
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:09,360
Speaker 1: deal with spouses who sleep in the same bed but

866
00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:11,040
Speaker 1: have different sleeping preferences.

867
00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:15,040
Speaker 11: Great question. That's why we really pioneered the split king adjustable.

868
00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:18,759
Speaker 11: So that's two twin Excel adjustable bases, which two twin

869
00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:22,200
Speaker 11: excels makes a king, and then two twin Excel mattresses.

870
00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:25,160
Speaker 11: So you can pick a firm mattress, your wife can

871
00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:28,200
Speaker 11: pick a softer mattress. If you sleep hotter, you can

872
00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:30,440
Speaker 11: go with these the coolest bed in the world, one

873
00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:33,120
Speaker 11: of the ghost beds that are coolest variety. She might

874
00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:37,080
Speaker 11: want a medium coolness and then springs or foam or

875
00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:39,399
Speaker 11: high bred, and then you could have your own kind

876
00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:42,400
Speaker 11: of comfort level and you're still nice and tight together,

877
00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:46,160
Speaker 11: so there's no loss of the relationship. And then on

878
00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:48,960
Speaker 11: the adjustable base you can raise your head, your legs.

879
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:53,440
Speaker 11: We've got massage lights, electrical outlets for the usps, so

880
00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:57,399
Speaker 11: you have all the comfort creatures of a lifestyle kind

881
00:42:57,440 --> 00:43:01,520
Speaker 11: of feature and you can sleep very happily but individualized comfort.

882
00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:02,960
Speaker 11: It's a real winner.

883
00:43:03,120 --> 00:43:06,640
Speaker 7: We've really been very successful with it from our website

884
00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:09,279
Speaker 7: and selling it through the costcos and the SAMs and

885
00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:10,000
Speaker 7: places like that.

886
00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:10,640
Speaker 11: Amazon.

887
00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:14,440
Speaker 1: It is a game changer, and I don't say that

888
00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:17,040
Speaker 1: very often. I'm pretty picky about things, and I tend

889
00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:18,480
Speaker 1: to be very limited what.

890
00:43:18,560 --> 00:43:19,600
Speaker 2: I say about products.

891
00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:23,520
Speaker 1: But this has been really a very noticeable difference in

892
00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:25,440
Speaker 1: my sleep. And the first thing I notice is that

893
00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:29,200
Speaker 1: temperature change. I just feel more fresh in bed, and

894
00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:31,360
Speaker 1: it always feels like I'm cooler and I'm not sweating.

895
00:43:31,719 --> 00:43:34,359
Speaker 2: How did you achieve that temperature.

896
00:43:34,160 --> 00:43:36,319
Speaker 1: Change, because I think that that's the first thing I

897
00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:37,840
Speaker 1: noticed when I slept the first night.

898
00:43:37,719 --> 00:43:38,320
Speaker 2: On the mattress.

899
00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:40,400
Speaker 11: So we do it a couple of ways.

900
00:43:40,600 --> 00:43:42,960
Speaker 7: We use a special type of phase change in the

901
00:43:42,960 --> 00:43:45,520
Speaker 7: fabric of the mattress itself, so as soon as you

902
00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:48,160
Speaker 7: touch it, you feel that coolness. And then what we've

903
00:43:48,200 --> 00:43:51,160
Speaker 7: pioneered is using phase change material, which is an organic

904
00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:54,840
Speaker 7: material that we layer on the top of the foam layer,

905
00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:58,239
Speaker 7: and then you have kind of instant cooling. So the

906
00:43:58,360 --> 00:44:01,880
Speaker 7: basic most just kind of cool your body down one

907
00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:04,520
Speaker 7: or two degrees. That's really all you need. Some people

908
00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:07,200
Speaker 7: think it needs a lot more, but I always tell

909
00:44:07,239 --> 00:44:08,759
Speaker 7: the story when you were a kid and you were

910
00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:11,239
Speaker 7: sick and your mother took your temperature. You thought you

911
00:44:11,280 --> 00:44:13,920
Speaker 7: were burning up, and she takes it in your ninety

912
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:16,160
Speaker 7: nine point nine you know, one degree over and that's

913
00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:17,840
Speaker 7: all it is. So all you want to do is

914
00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:20,879
Speaker 7: kind of regulate, modulate your temperature by one or two

915
00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:23,759
Speaker 7: degrees to get you to a nice neutral position. And

916
00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:26,600
Speaker 7: that works just perfectly. So we take this phase change,

917
00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:28,920
Speaker 7: we put it on the phone. It pulls away the

918
00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:31,400
Speaker 7: heat from your person and just kind of moves it

919
00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:34,520
Speaker 7: aside and get you at that normal temperature. If you

920
00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:36,640
Speaker 7: actually got too cool, it would bring some of that

921
00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:40,479
Speaker 7: heat back. It's a great, great technology. We're very proud

922
00:44:40,520 --> 00:44:42,080
Speaker 7: of it, and it works wonderfully.

923
00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:46,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a game changer. It literally has just changed

924
00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:48,560
Speaker 1: my experience in sleeping. That makes my wife smile. I

925
00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:50,560
Speaker 1: mean that when we go to bed. It's just a

926
00:44:50,600 --> 00:44:54,440
Speaker 1: great thing. CEO of Ghosted, Mark Warner, thank you personally

00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:43,280
Speaker 1: how we'll finish up right after these messages.

942
00:45:41,680 --> 00:45:43,319
Speaker 2: Welcome back everybody before we go.

943
00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:46,080
Speaker 1: As you know, almost everyone in my generation remembers exactly

944
00:45:46,160 --> 00:45:49,799
Speaker 1: where they were when nine to eleven occurred. Twenty got

945
00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:53,000
Speaker 1: It's hard to believe twenty five years ago. Already there

946
00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:57,480
Speaker 1: is an extraordinary opportunity to teach future generations that lesson

947
00:45:57,600 --> 00:45:59,520
Speaker 1: over and over again. Joining me now, someone who's got

948
00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:01,600
Speaker 1: a great idea to do that. He's a New York

949
00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:04,919
Speaker 1: City based artist and an activist, Scott Libto Scott. Great

950
00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:07,120
Speaker 1: to have you on the show, sir, Thanks for having me,

951
00:46:07,160 --> 00:46:10,520
Speaker 1: good man. All Right, New York likes big. It's the

952
00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:13,160
Speaker 1: city of the Big Apple. One hundred and fifty foot flag.

953
00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:14,799
Speaker 1: That's pretty big. Tell us about it.

954
00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:18,560
Speaker 12: Yeah, it's people have been talking about it since the beginning.

955
00:46:18,800 --> 00:46:21,359
Speaker 12: To put a big flag of appropriate sized flag down,

956
00:46:22,080 --> 00:46:25,640
Speaker 12: not necessarily right on the Memorial, but around the area

957
00:46:26,280 --> 00:46:28,480
Speaker 12: we had the Freedom Tower. The Freedom Tower went up

958
00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:30,799
Speaker 12: for a lot to show our patriotism, our pride, and

959
00:46:30,840 --> 00:46:33,240
Speaker 12: there's not one American flag next to the Freedom Tower.

960
00:46:33,440 --> 00:46:34,440
Speaker 11: There's two small.

961
00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:37,440
Speaker 12: Flangs on the property of the beautiful Memorial that I

962
00:46:37,480 --> 00:46:41,160
Speaker 12: finally went to see. It's very powerful patriotic, but you can't.

963
00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:41,720
Speaker 11: See these flags.

964
00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:44,480
Speaker 12: They get obscured by the trees in the summer and

965
00:46:44,719 --> 00:46:47,600
Speaker 12: winter in the spring. So I finally got to meet

966
00:46:47,600 --> 00:46:49,640
Speaker 12: with the museum folks who gave me the opportunity to

967
00:46:49,640 --> 00:46:51,920
Speaker 12: make my presentation to move forward.

968
00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:53,839
Speaker 2: And as you know by now, the.

969
00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:57,719
Speaker 12: Great Marcus Lamonis, CEO of Camping World, stepped right in

970
00:46:57,760 --> 00:46:59,759
Speaker 12: when he sold my story and he said he will

971
00:46:59,760 --> 00:47:02,120
Speaker 12: pay for the whole thing, one hundred and fifty foot

972
00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:06,799
Speaker 12: flag pole, giant flag, installation, maintenance, everything. We got eighty

973
00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:10,520
Speaker 12: eight thousand signatures on the petition and Marek Cumming, we

974
00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:13,200
Speaker 12: got heavy hitters that are starting to support this. So

975
00:47:13,360 --> 00:47:16,600
Speaker 12: I don't see any problem besides the museum just getting

976
00:47:16,640 --> 00:47:20,200
Speaker 12: the permission from the committee and the port authority and

977
00:47:20,239 --> 00:47:23,840
Speaker 12: then this flag can be up by Flag Day July fourth,

978
00:47:24,160 --> 00:47:26,040
Speaker 12: and it has to be up before the twenty fifth

979
00:47:26,040 --> 00:47:30,080
Speaker 12: anniversary of that tragic day on that most sacred important

980
00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:32,400
Speaker 12: ground in America.

981
00:47:33,520 --> 00:47:35,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's no doubt about it.

982
00:47:35,520 --> 00:47:38,840
Speaker 1: Our generation, I think, really remembers what happened. But we

983
00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:40,640
Speaker 1: got a lot of young people they may not have

984
00:47:40,680 --> 00:47:44,240
Speaker 1: got taught at school being able to have that big

985
00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:45,640
Speaker 1: visual cueue every day.

986
00:47:45,680 --> 00:47:47,359
Speaker 2: That gives an opportunity.

987
00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:49,400
Speaker 1: For a parent or an aunt or an uncle or

988
00:47:49,840 --> 00:47:53,480
Speaker 1: a grandparent to remind a child what happened there and

989
00:47:53,480 --> 00:47:55,640
Speaker 1: why we got to keep the legacy life very important.

990
00:47:55,960 --> 00:47:58,320
Speaker 1: What inspired you to do? I mean, what gave you

991
00:47:58,360 --> 00:47:59,759
Speaker 1: the fun? This is the way I'm going to make

992
00:47:59,800 --> 00:48:00,400
Speaker 1: a intribution.

993
00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:05,440
Speaker 12: I have been a patriotic artist for my last forty years.

994
00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:08,200
Speaker 12: I saw patriotism was taboo back in the nineties, and

995
00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:10,479
Speaker 12: I said, I'm going to use my art to paint

996
00:48:10,520 --> 00:48:11,200
Speaker 12: American flags.

997
00:48:11,200 --> 00:48:11,920
Speaker 2: You can see one of my.

998
00:48:11,840 --> 00:48:14,800
Speaker 12: Paintings back here. I painted flags on buildings in every

999
00:48:14,840 --> 00:48:17,879
Speaker 12: state throughout this country, and the flag is the most

1000
00:48:17,880 --> 00:48:19,840
Speaker 12: beautiful work of art. I know we're going through a

1001
00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:22,200
Speaker 12: lot of hell right now with patriotism and what's right

1002
00:48:22,239 --> 00:48:25,080
Speaker 12: what's not. We can't do anything without that flag and

1003
00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:28,319
Speaker 12: those who died underneath it. So that flag should not

1004
00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:30,759
Speaker 12: be taboo. It should not be an embarrassment to fly it.

1005
00:48:31,160 --> 00:48:34,839
Speaker 12: The more the merry. A country that loses its patriotism

1006
00:48:35,520 --> 00:48:36,920
Speaker 12: ceases to become a country.

1007
00:48:38,520 --> 00:48:41,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, that is right on, at such an extraordinary moment.

1008
00:48:41,320 --> 00:48:43,640
Speaker 1: If people are watching and listening tonight they want to

1009
00:48:43,640 --> 00:48:45,880
Speaker 1: get involved in this, how can they help you make

1010
00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:49,760
Speaker 1: sure this becomes a reality By Flag Day June June fourteenth.

1011
00:48:50,239 --> 00:48:53,160
Speaker 12: Sign a petition. Go to Scottlobedo dot com. It'll send

1012
00:48:53,160 --> 00:48:55,839
Speaker 12: you right to the link. Sign a petition and share it.

1013
00:48:55,960 --> 00:48:58,520
Speaker 12: I can't believe we got eighty eight thousand signatures in

1014
00:48:58,640 --> 00:49:01,759
Speaker 12: just two weeks and it's still growing. Big names are

1015
00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:07,160
Speaker 12: starting to back it from foundations, fire commissioners, politicians. Again,

1016
00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:09,399
Speaker 12: it's something that can be done so easily. It's all

1017
00:49:09,440 --> 00:49:12,399
Speaker 12: paid for and we'll find the right spot for it.

1018
00:49:13,440 --> 00:49:15,320
Speaker 12: So just those of you out there, you know, I

1019
00:49:15,440 --> 00:49:18,000
Speaker 12: hope that this finally eventually gets to the big man,

1020
00:49:18,080 --> 00:49:20,440
Speaker 12: Donald Trump, because you know he likes his big flags

1021
00:49:20,480 --> 00:49:20,879
Speaker 12: as well.

1022
00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:27,120

Speaker 1: rejoining us. Until they keep an eye in justinnews dot com.

1032

Speaker 1: There may be an announcement in the next few minutes

1033
00:49:48,440 --> 00:49:51,240
Speaker 1: about Bill and Hillary Clinton. They folded their cards, folks.

1034
00:49:51,440 --> 00:49:54,400
Speaker 1: They will have to testify. They're not gonna risk having contempt.

1035
00:49:54,760 --> 00:49:56,160
Speaker 1: That's happening over Justine. We'll see it.

1036
