22
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:10,119
Speaker 1: this pillow. People rule, and the people are sovereign. I

23
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:13,920
Speaker 1: was elected not to take power, but to give power

24
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 1: to the American people where it belongs. In foreign affairs,

25
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 1: we are renewing this founding principle of sovereignty. Our government's

26
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 1: first duty is to its people, to our citizens, to

27
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 1: serve their needs, to ensure their safety, to preserve their rights,

28
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 1: and to defend their values. As President of the United States,

29
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:43,119
Speaker 1: I will always put America first, just like you, as

30
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 1: the leaders of your countries, will always and should always

31
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 1: put your country's first. No one has shown more contempt

32
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:00,440
Speaker 1: for other nations and for the well being of their

33
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 1: own people then the depraved regime in North Korea. It

34
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 1: is responsible for the starvation deaths of millions of North

35
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 1: Koreans and for the imprisonment, torture, killing, an oppression of

36
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:21,600
Speaker 1: countless more. Now, North Korea's reckless pursuit of nuclear weapons

37
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 1: and ballistic missiles threatens the entire world with unthinkable loss

38
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:31,200
Speaker 1: of human life. It is an outrage that some nations

39
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,520
Speaker 1: would not only trade with such a resime. But would arm,

40
00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:39,080
Speaker 1: supply and financially support a country that imperils the world

41
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 1: with nuclear conflict. No nation on Earth has an interest

42
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 1: in seeing this band of criminals arm itself with nuclear

43
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:53,680
Speaker 1: weapons and missrs. The United States has great strength and patience,

44
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 1: but if it is forced to defend itself for its allies,

45
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:02,240
Speaker 1: we will have no choice but to totally destroy North Korea.

46
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 1: Rocket man is on a suicide mission for himself and

47
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 1: for his regime. The United States is ready willing enables,

48
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:16,440
Speaker 1: but hopefully this will not be necessary. That's what the

49
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 1: United Nations is all about. That's what the United Nations

50
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 1: is for. Let's see how they do. It is time

51
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 1: for North Korea to realize that the d nuclearization is

52
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 1: it's only acceptable future. Alright, That was the President at

53
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:39,840
Speaker 1: the U N earlier today. You know we've done We'll

54
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 1: do it later in the program today. Anyway, glad you're

55
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,400
Speaker 1: with US eight nine for one, Shawn a toll free

56
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 1: telephone number if you want to be a part of

57
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 1: this extravaganza. We're gonna do a comparison and compare a

58
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:58,320
Speaker 1: contrast between two presidents and Obama's appeasement capitulation, apologies versus

59
00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 1: a president that has moral clarity and strength and resolve

60
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 1: and a willingness to just tell the truth. You know,

61
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 1: the president scored when the Democrats, and you've got Democrats

62
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 1: ripping the president's speech is bombastic. What does he mean

63
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,920
Speaker 1: He's going to look out for the American people first?

64
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:21,040
Speaker 1: What does that mean? Diane Feinstein said that the speech

65
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:24,640
Speaker 1: were encountered to the mission of the International Organization, an

66
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:29,920
Speaker 1: organization that does nothing except past one anti Semitic resolution

67
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:34,440
Speaker 1: after another, that does nothing to bring peace and stability

68
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:38,400
Speaker 1: in the world. And at best, they send in peacekeepers

69
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:41,480
Speaker 1: that are ineffective, or they send in help after the fact,

70
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 1: and they've been ineffective at stopping nuclear proliferation in any way, shape,

71
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:49,159
Speaker 1: matter of form um. I thought it was probably and

72
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 1: I'm not the only one who believes this. And he

73
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:55,520
Speaker 1: did have ABC Terries Moran suffering a full meltdown today

74
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 1: reacting to the speech, and he went on to sup

75
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,920
Speaker 1: bordering on the threat of war crime. He said, no,

76
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,480
Speaker 1: they didn't listen to the same speech. They're just not

77
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 1: used to hearing strength and an American president, And that

78
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:11,160
Speaker 1: is what happened at the United nations. You got to

79
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,360
Speaker 1: also think all these leaders that are around the world,

80
00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:17,600
Speaker 1: they're paying very close attention. It's great that they know

81
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,599
Speaker 1: there's a new sheriff in town. It is a good

82
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:24,120
Speaker 1: thing that they might again fear the United States and

83
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:27,720
Speaker 1: that there will be consequences for nefarious activities. And we

84
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:32,040
Speaker 1: can't allow North Korea to keep firing or Rocketman Kim

85
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 1: Jong un to keep firing missiles over Japan and threatening

86
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 1: Guam and threatening the entire region of the world. We

87
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,600
Speaker 1: do have some good news on that front. The Defense

88
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 1: Secretary James mad Dog Maddis hinted yesterday that the US

89
00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:48,440
Speaker 1: in fact may have a secret military option that would

90
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 1: neutralize any threat caused by North Korea. And according to Mattis,

91
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:54,839
Speaker 1: the Pentagon has a few tricks up its sleeve that

92
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:58,400
Speaker 1: wouldn't involve the decimation of soul. You know, if we

93
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,680
Speaker 1: can do something neutralize him and save lives. I've been saying,

94
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:04,400
Speaker 1: and I don't know what option he's talking about, but

95
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 1: if we can do anything to prevent the incineration of

96
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 1: North Korea in spite of Rocketman, it would be good

97
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:12,880
Speaker 1: for the entire world. So whatever options may be available

98
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,039
Speaker 1: to us that I don't know about otherwise. I only

99
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,840
Speaker 1: see bad options, and all I see is Okay, he's

100
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,120
Speaker 1: going to continue to put these missiles on a launchpad,

101
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 1: fire them over individual sovereign countries, and threatened Guam. We

102
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 1: we will have no choice but to engage anyway. Say

103
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 1: When asked, is there any military option the US can

104
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 1: take with North Korea that would not put soul a

105
00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:36,280
Speaker 1: grave risk? Mattis said, yes, there is, but I'm not

106
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,720
Speaker 1: going into details. He wouldn't say did he did Let

107
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:43,760
Speaker 1: slip one interesting comment just to clarify, you said that

108
00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 1: they were there was a possible military option that would

109
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:50,719
Speaker 1: not create a grave risk to soul. Are we talking

110
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:53,520
Speaker 1: about kinetic options as well? A reporter asked In a

111
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,280
Speaker 1: follow up, He said, yes, I don't want to go

112
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 1: into that, agreeing that has closely held military option involved

113
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:06,719
Speaker 1: kinetic action, which is a euphemism to describe lethal military force. Um,

114
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 1: you gotta hope and pray. And this is what happens

115
00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 1: when you have somebody like Bill Clinton promising there's a

116
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:14,840
Speaker 1: good deal for the American people, will give him millions

117
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 1: of dollars in energy and and we're gonna be fine

118
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 1: and agree no nuclear weapons ever, they're gonna they're gonna

119
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 1: play nice in the sambox. They didn't play nice in

120
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 1: the zambox. You know, so this president is sent a

121
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 1: very different measure, very different measured answer. You know, I've

122
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:36,040
Speaker 1: always said that the one adult on the world stage

123
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 1: that has moral clarity because of the dire situation and

124
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:43,880
Speaker 1: the proximity to enemies around them, the tiniest country in

125
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 1: the world, one of them is is Israel. And Prime

126
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,280
Speaker 1: Minister net Yahoo, well, he had some high praise for

127
00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 1: the President today. He said, in over thirty years, in

128
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:56,640
Speaker 1: my experience with the u N, I never heard a bolder,

129
00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 1: more courageous speech. President's Trump spoke the truth about the

130
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 1: great dangers facing our world. Initiative powerful call to confront

131
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:10,200
Speaker 1: them in order to ensure the future of humanity. He's

132
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 1: not using hyperbole either. These weapons in the hands of

133
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:17,840
Speaker 1: radical mullahs in Iran and elsewhere are an extreme danger

134
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:20,160
Speaker 1: at every man, woman and child that walks this earth.

135
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,000
Speaker 1: And the President got into all of this, and he

136
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 1: concluded his first address forty minutes speech, a lot of

137
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,320
Speaker 1: tough talk for North Korea, a lot of tough talk

138
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 1: for Iran, and referring to Kim Jong Uns rocket Man,

139
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,880
Speaker 1: which made me laugh, and he threatened to totally destroy

140
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,760
Speaker 1: North Korea if necessary if the US is forced to

141
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:42,920
Speaker 1: defend itself or its allies against North Korea's aggression. He

142
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:47,199
Speaker 1: also said the Iranium regime is an economically depleted rogue state.

143
00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 1: Well they were until Obama gave these people a hundred

144
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:53,559
Speaker 1: and fifty billion dollars in cash and other currency. And

145
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:56,719
Speaker 1: he also said we can't allow the murderous regime to

146
00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:01,440
Speaker 1: continue to destabilize activities. I had an opportunity last night

147
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,679
Speaker 1: to interview General President ALCSI of Egypt. I've never met

148
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 1: him before, and I asked him many of these same questions.

149
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:11,280
Speaker 1: He was very clear, and I thought he took one

150
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 1: of the more courageous positions ever and saying that Islam

151
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 1: needs to reform and radical Islamis need to stop, and

152
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 1: it's our job are part of the world to make

153
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:25,040
Speaker 1: sure they stop. And then when Coptic Christians, I believe

154
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:30,240
Speaker 1: seven of them, we're we're killed and eat in Libya.

155
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:33,600
Speaker 1: He sent his troops in and trust me, his life

156
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:36,160
Speaker 1: is in jeopardy for taking on radical Islam. I even

157
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 1: asked him, well, what about America, doesn't even mention the

158
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,640
Speaker 1: word radical Islam. It was a pretty interesting response that

159
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:46,160
Speaker 1: he had anyway, so uh ja Look. John Bolton, former

160
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:48,160
Speaker 1: UN ambassador, said it was the best speech of his

161
00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:51,640
Speaker 1: presidency and he praised the President for the denunciation of

162
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:54,760
Speaker 1: North Korea's nuclear ambitions, the criticism of Iran and the

163
00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:58,280
Speaker 1: deal broken by the Obama administration. He said, the best

164
00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:01,240
Speaker 1: speech and Trump's presidency. I think he was as clear

165
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,280
Speaker 1: and direct as it's possible to be, and I think

166
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 1: it's safe to say in the history of the U

167
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:08,880
Speaker 1: n there's never been a more straightforward criticism of the

168
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:13,439
Speaker 1: behavior the unacceptable behavior of other member states. And he

169
00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:16,920
Speaker 1: said Trump's critiques of the nuclear deal revealed the White

170
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 1: House is not going to tolerate half measures and compromises

171
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 1: that allow rogue nations and radical mulas with radical ideologies

172
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:28,200
Speaker 1: ran in North Korea to progress and beyond the verge

173
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:32,720
Speaker 1: of having deliverable nuclear devices. And he even got applause

174
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 1: the President did for blasting the Iranian murderous regime and

175
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 1: warning that the Mullahs are still working on their nuclear weapons.

176
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,559
Speaker 1: So it's a pretty fascinating day, almost historic at the

177
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:48,719
Speaker 1: United Nations today and the President making very clear what

178
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:51,720
Speaker 1: the Trump doctrine is all about. He's not. There will

179
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 1: be no more appeasement. There's not gonna be any more

180
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,600
Speaker 1: bribery efforts, is not going to be any more attempts

181
00:10:56,640 --> 00:11:00,559
Speaker 1: to capitulate and beg rogue dictatorships to be nice to

182
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:03,240
Speaker 1: us if we give the money and bribe them. Bribing

183
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:07,240
Speaker 1: them doesn't work. Being nice to them hasn't worked. Capitulating

184
00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:11,480
Speaker 1: an appeasement has not worked. And so obviously the world

185
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,600
Speaker 1: is watching now. We have a number of other issues

186
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:18,160
Speaker 1: we're gonna hit today. UM. There is a last ditch

187
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:23,440
Speaker 1: effort in the Senate before September to get a repeal

188
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:28,520
Speaker 1: of of Obamacare, so we're gonna watch that pretty closely.

189
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:32,760
Speaker 1: And this latest plan basically would send it's the Cassidy

190
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 1: Graham Bill, and it would send the Obamacare moneies back

191
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 1: to the states and let them decide specifically what they

192
00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:43,880
Speaker 1: want to do with healthcare in their states, something that

193
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:48,200
Speaker 1: conservative generally support. UM. I spent a lot of time

194
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,839
Speaker 1: over the weekend speaking with my sources in DC, both

195
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,640
Speaker 1: in the Senate outside the Senate, in the House outside

196
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 1: the House, and what I found was there is broad

197
00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:00,280
Speaker 1: support for it, but it looks like it's about one

198
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 1: maybe two votes short in the House, and the names

199
00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 1: won't surprise you. Murkowski, Collins, McCain, and Rampaul's dead set

200
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,599
Speaker 1: against it UH for reasons that he'll explain on the

201
00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:14,840
Speaker 1: program today. You know, look, it's not the best option.

202
00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:16,959
Speaker 1: And the reason it's not the best option is simple

203
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:21,720
Speaker 1: is because you had seven senators that voted in UH

204
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:25,600
Speaker 1: to repeal Obamacare, and then when they know they knew

205
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:28,640
Speaker 1: Obama would never sign it, then it comes and you

206
00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:30,959
Speaker 1: got a president pen in hand that's willing to fully

207
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:35,719
Speaker 1: repeal Obamacare, and those six seven senators said, ma'm I

208
00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:38,719
Speaker 1: don't think so, because, uh, it's just not working for

209
00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 1: me this time. So you have about seven senators that

210
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,679
Speaker 1: never had any intention to repeal and replace Obamacare. That's

211
00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,280
Speaker 1: the reality now that the Republican Party has to deal with.

212
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:50,559
Speaker 1: Then you got about a hundred in the House that

213
00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:53,839
Speaker 1: don't want repeal and replace, even though they too had

214
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 1: sixty show votes. So it's a horrible position. There's there's

215
00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:01,679
Speaker 1: not the great option. The reason that that Meadows and

216
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 1: bratt but again, nobody gets to see the bill. Are

217
00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:07,319
Speaker 1: encouraged by the Cassidy Graham bills because it would allow

218
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:10,920
Speaker 1: states to set up their own health care cooperatives, and

219
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 1: then they would allow them to set up their own

220
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:16,280
Speaker 1: health savings accounts. At least that's a better choice. If California,

221
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 1: New York, New Jersey, Illinois want to do something stupid

222
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,760
Speaker 1: and start their own version of a single payer, they

223
00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:24,440
Speaker 1: can do it, but it's gonna be on their dime,

224
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:27,880
Speaker 1: and there's the citizens of their state. They're gonna have

225
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 1: to figure it out, all right. The other big story

226
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:34,760
Speaker 1: we are following today is the Yes, it's now been

227
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:38,640
Speaker 1: confirmed what we reported on this program in March of

228
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:43,520
Speaker 1: this year, there was surveillance on Trump Tower. There was

229
00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 1: surveillance on Trump associates. It was done by the Obama administration.

230
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 1: We're gonna give you all the information now. CNN has

231
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:55,679
Speaker 1: had to admit that they that they were wrong, except

232
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:57,959
Speaker 1: they're not saying they're wrong. They just forget all of

233
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 1: their criticism. All the times called the president a liar. Well,

234
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 1: we've got the tape. We'll get to that and your

235
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:08,240
Speaker 1: calls today, One Shawn is a number. We'll continue. Oh,

236
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:14,040
Speaker 1: I see California Moonbeam Brown is not happy with the

237
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:18,199
Speaker 1: president's approach to climate change. And North Korea, calling it

238
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:22,800
Speaker 1: stupid and dangerous and silly, sharpening his criticism that the

239
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 1: president and comparing his supporters to to cave dwellers. You

240
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,280
Speaker 1: should check him out, he said, you know they're there

241
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:33,800
Speaker 1: are people who dwell in deep dark caves, and just

Speaker 1: Lawrence got the look of death on her face? What what? What?

284
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:57,080
Speaker 1: What have people been saying when they call in that

285
00:16:57,240 --> 00:17:00,080
Speaker 1: is irritating you? You could always just learn from Oh

286
00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:03,920
Speaker 1: snardly Rush Lambas call screener. Well, we've known for years

287

Speaker 1: irritated you or some group of people have been irritating?

291
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:17,520
Speaker 1: Why are you letting people irritate you. I'm not irritated,

292
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:24,440
Speaker 1: I'm just annoyed. Well, I'm not irritated, I'm just annoyed. Yeah,

293
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:27,800
Speaker 1: like James call me saying, well, she it was careless,

294
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:31,880
Speaker 1: but it was she didn't recklessly mishandle it. It was carelessness. Um,

295
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:36,399
Speaker 1: it's there. It's the same thing. What's what's bothering you? Listen.

296
00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:39,240
Speaker 1: I love your audience. They are some of the greatest

297
00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:42,520
Speaker 1: people ever. But right now there's just a lot of

298
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 1: commentary that's not adding up to what you're talking about.

299
00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:47,639
Speaker 1: And sometimes that gets a little frustrated because for the

300
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:49,600
Speaker 1: most part, we want to take callers on what you're

301
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:53,040
Speaker 1: talking about, okay, and what's what is the commentary that

302
00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:55,320
Speaker 1: annoyed you? Does somebody say something horrible about me and

303
00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 1: it upsets you and put your defense mechanisms in gear

304
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:02,000
Speaker 1: or something, because always get upset on my behalf when

305
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:04,240
Speaker 1: somebody calls in and so, who's a blinking blah blah

306
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:06,480
Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah blod upset you? It doesn't upset me,

307
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:10,359
Speaker 1: It doesn't upset me. No, it does upset me. But

308
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 1: you know what, No, But if it doesn't upset me,

309
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:16,000
Speaker 1: why should it upset you? Because I love you and

310
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:19,520
Speaker 1: I care about you. You don't have to worry. I'm

311
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 1: I've had I keep telling her, let it go, let's

312
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:23,840
Speaker 1: put him on the air, let him fight for his life.

313
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:27,159
Speaker 1: He loves her. Find the next one and put them up,

314
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:28,720
Speaker 1: and I'll put them on the air, and I'll show

315
00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:31,159
Speaker 1: you a heading What we really want is people to

316
00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:34,119
Speaker 1: stop calling in and asking to talk about things that

317
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:36,960
Speaker 1: we're not talking about. For example, we're not talking about

318
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:39,760
Speaker 1: UFOs today. But thank you very much for the information.

319
00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:44,320
Speaker 1: We appreciate it too many, too many. I don't want

320
00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:46,200
Speaker 1: to hear about the little green man in your closet,

321
00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:48,400
Speaker 1: as interesting as you might think it is, so thank

322
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:51,000
Speaker 1: you very much. Please don't call again. The trials and

323
00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:53,399
Speaker 1: tribulations of a call screen, I think we ought to

324
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 1: turn that and be nice to Lauren, or I'm gonna

325
00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,720
Speaker 1: start answering the phone and nobody wants that. People have

326
00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:01,760
Speaker 1: already dealt with that. Right, enough of that already, But

327
00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:05,159
Speaker 1: you gotta remember there are customers, and you know, although

328
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:09,399
Speaker 1: I do enjoy the way the way that both Eardly

329
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:12,200
Speaker 1: handles it, it's a full on talk show that goes

330
00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:15,239
Speaker 1: on inside of the control room. While Rush is doing

331
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:16,960
Speaker 1: his show, Rush is in the middle of one of

332
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:20,240
Speaker 1: his long signature monologues, and then in comes you know,

333
00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:22,800
Speaker 1: bo is fighting the callers. It's it's almost like two

334
00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:25,800
Speaker 1: shows in one um anyway, all right, I got it,

335
00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:29,240
Speaker 1: but just stop taking it personally. Listen. I just want

336
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,160
Speaker 1: to let you know I feel like cos screening. When

337
00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:33,920
Speaker 1: I talked to the callers, I'm a reflection of you,

338
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:37,520
Speaker 1: So I do try and be as respectful as humanly possible.

339
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:39,560
Speaker 1: But sometimes when you're not talking about things that are

340
00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:43,000
Speaker 1: relevant whatsoever to the show, it drives me a little crazy.

341
00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:45,200
Speaker 1: All right, But you're letting people get to you and

342
00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:47,760
Speaker 1: bother you don't listen. Here's the thing in life. If

343
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:50,359
Speaker 1: people can get to you and bug you and bother you.

344
00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:53,280
Speaker 1: Think about all the names you know that I'm called

345
00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:56,440
Speaker 1: on a daily basis. If I took these things to

346
00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:58,880
Speaker 1: heart the way you're taking it to heart, I would

347
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:02,359
Speaker 1: be in a rubber room somewhere, you know, insane. You

348
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:04,560
Speaker 1: ke just gotta let it go. You just got you got.

349
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:07,280
Speaker 1: You can't wet the small stuff. I never read the book.

350
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:09,200
Speaker 1: I got enough out of the title. I get it.

351
00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:12,960
Speaker 1: You can't sweat things you can't control. And people want

352
00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:16,920
Speaker 1: to irritate you, upset you, agitate you, hurt your feelings,

353
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:21,200
Speaker 1: make you sad, emotionalize you, and you can't. You don't

354
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:23,959
Speaker 1: give them the power to do it. You got your

355
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:27,879
Speaker 1: way off topic, And now I'm doing talking about something

356
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,639
Speaker 1: that is not on topic. This is not off topic.

357
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:33,680
Speaker 1: This is life. There are people in life that love

358
00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 1: you and care about you and would never ever be

359
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:38,800
Speaker 1: pushing your buttons. But the only reason they're pushing your

360
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:41,560
Speaker 1: buttons is because you have buttons to push. And I'm saying,

361
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:43,399
Speaker 1: get rid of the buttons, so there's no buttons on

362
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:45,520
Speaker 1: you that they can push, and then they're gonna try

363
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:47,840
Speaker 1: harder to irritate you, and they'll call back fifty times

364
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:50,400
Speaker 1: to irritate you. All right, I threw the buttons out

365
00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:52,520
Speaker 1: the window. They're no longer here. No, you didn't, but

366
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:54,879
Speaker 1: it's a nice, nice attempt, all right, let me move on.

367
00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:59,520
Speaker 1: So it turns out remember when President Trump back in

368
00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:03,439
Speaker 1: the day a I forget the exact date, point in time,

369
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 1: said that it looked like he was being hacked. Remember

370
00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:10,879
Speaker 1: President Obama had wire tapped Trump Tower. That was the

371
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:13,920
Speaker 1: exact words that he used. Do you remember how the

372
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:18,639
Speaker 1: media had a meltdown, a complete utter meltdown, And it

373
00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:20,960
Speaker 1: was one of the many occasions that they go into

374
00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:25,240
Speaker 1: these days, long rands about the president being a liar

375
00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:28,480
Speaker 1: and unfit for office and paranoid and and on and

376
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:32,640
Speaker 1: on and on. Well, it turns out that not only

377
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:35,280
Speaker 1: were we right, a few of other people right. Apparently

378
00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:39,400
Speaker 1: Levin was right, Apparently Breitbart was right, And we had

379
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:43,119
Speaker 1: this on the eighth of March, and we talked at

380
00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:46,679
Speaker 1: length again and again with Sarah Carter John Solomon. They

381
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:48,879
Speaker 1: broke the story we had them on the day. They

382
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:51,720
Speaker 1: broke the story that there had been fis A warrants

383
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:55,240
Speaker 1: issued against Trump Tower and the servant that was off site,

384
00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 1: meaning that's the one that the Trump campaign used, it

385
00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:01,600
Speaker 1: was an in Trump Tower, and that two FISA courts

386
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,600
Speaker 1: had ruled in favor of giving them some limited access

387
00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:07,720
Speaker 1: to this. And it was on March eighth that we

388
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,879
Speaker 1: had him on the program. And then President Trump had

389
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:15,359
Speaker 1: tweeted on March fourth, terrible, just found out that Obama

390
00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:21,920
Speaker 1: had my wires tapped in Trump Tower just before the victory.

391
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:26,119
Speaker 1: Nothing found, he said, this is McCarthy is um. CNN

392
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:29,520
Speaker 1: itself at the time called the idea of trumping wire

393
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:34,919
Speaker 1: tapped incendiary. Well, now it turns out a report issued

394
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:40,479
Speaker 1: late yesterday says US investigators did obtain a surveillance warrant

395
00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:44,120
Speaker 1: just as we told you they did in this case

396
00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:48,320
Speaker 1: on Paul Manafort from a secret court FISA, and had

397
00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:52,879
Speaker 1: monitored him before and after the election. Including a period

398
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:56,480
Speaker 1: when Manafort was known to talk to President Trump, which

399
00:22:56,560 --> 00:23:00,399
Speaker 1: means they monitored the president. This might go to the

400
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:02,399
Speaker 1: heart of how we had a leak a day by

401
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:05,760
Speaker 1: the deep state since this man has been president, which

402
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:08,479
Speaker 1: nobody else has had to deal with. It is an

403
00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:12,159
Speaker 1: obstacle that makes the job infinitely harder. And then when

404
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,679
Speaker 1: you couple it with lying cable news and the New

405
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 1: York Times and the Washington Post, well you've got yourself

406
00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:22,720
Speaker 1: administration spending eighty percent of its time, you know, chasing

407
00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:27,159
Speaker 1: down information that's either false or full of lies. The

408
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:30,200
Speaker 1: report said that the Secret Court then handles FAISA, the

409
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:34,800
Speaker 1: Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, authorized the surveillance for an investigation

410
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:39,159
Speaker 1: that began in and the Podesta group and another firm's

411
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:42,880
Speaker 1: lobbying worked for Ukraine's pro Russia former ruling party. We've

412
00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:45,960
Speaker 1: never heard anything about John Podesta's work over there, just

413
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:49,440
Speaker 1: Paul Manafort's work over there. So the revelation that the

414
00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:53,840
Speaker 1: Obama administration did indeed wire tapped the Trump campaign, Now

415
00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:58,199
Speaker 1: this comes despite all the denials by Obama officials, by

416
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:02,320
Speaker 1: the FBI, and by the elligence community. Even the FBI

417
00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:06,720
Speaker 1: Director James Comey, he disputed Trump's claim in testimony that

418
00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:10,600
Speaker 1: lawmakers could probably now find misleading because he told the

419
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:14,639
Speaker 1: House Intelligence Committee with respect to the President's tweets about

420
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:18,360
Speaker 1: alleged wire tapping directed at him by the prior administration,

421
00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:21,280
Speaker 1: I have no information that supports those tweets, and we've

422
00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:24,600
Speaker 1: looked carefully inside the FBI. Well, they didn't look, apparently

423
00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:27,560
Speaker 1: deep enough. The New York Times also reported that Comey

424
00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:30,399
Speaker 1: had said Trump's claim was false and that he had

425
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:34,960
Speaker 1: asked the Justice Department to publicly rejected According to the BBC,

426
00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 1: James Clapper, former Director National Intelligence, he also told Congress

427
00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:44,080
Speaker 1: under oath, the intelligence agencies did not wire tap Trump,

428
00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:47,359
Speaker 1: nor did the FBI obtain a court order to monitor

429
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:50,879
Speaker 1: Trump's phones, all of which is not true. So the

430
00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:54,320
Speaker 1: President tweeted this out on March fourth. Let's go to

431
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:57,600
Speaker 1: the Shawn Hannity radio program on March eight. Listen to

432
00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,280
Speaker 1: this now. In this piece, tell me if I'm reading

433
00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:04,040
Speaker 1: it properly, you both confirmed that a surveillance warrant was

434
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:07,880
Speaker 1: issued for the main server at Trump Towers. That true,

435
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:10,760
Speaker 1: for I'm not sure it was the main service, Sean,

436
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:12,280
Speaker 1: but it was a server that had to do with

437
00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:14,960
Speaker 1: email marketing, and the FBI wanted to take a look

438
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:17,040
Speaker 1: at it because it was appearing to have some sort

439
00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,479
Speaker 1: of communication with a Russian entity. Well, I know as

440
00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,760
Speaker 1: a matter of fact, that everybody in the campaign, with

441
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:26,120
Speaker 1: maybe one or two exceptions that I know, all got

442
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,800
Speaker 1: on the Trump email in other words, that the Trump

443
00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:32,959
Speaker 1: organization email server. So there is a possibility that everything

444
00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:38,080
Speaker 1: involving the campaign was possibly surveiled once that FISA warrant

445
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:41,280
Speaker 1: was issued. Is that possible? It's possible, though our understanding

446
00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:44,040
Speaker 1: is that this this server was actually narrowly construed to

447
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:48,120
Speaker 1: do email marketing and predated the campaign and wasn't specifically

448
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:50,359
Speaker 1: a server that was used for campaign email. That's that's

449
00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:55,800
Speaker 1: our understanding. Now let's go to the corrupt establishment destroyed

450
00:25:55,880 --> 00:26:00,760
Speaker 1: Trump media, and that means especially over at NBC and CNN,

451
00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:04,960
Speaker 1: fake Jake news over at CNN and listen to how

452
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:09,359
Speaker 1: they call the president basically a liar and paranoid and crazy. Listen,

453
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 1: good even thanks for joining us tonight. We know the

454
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:15,520
Speaker 1: President the United States has no facts, no facts to

455
00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:18,200
Speaker 1: back up his startling allegation that the former president of

456
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:20,720
Speaker 1: the United States, President Obama, wire tapped him in Trump

457
00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:23,200
Speaker 1: Tower during the campaign, keep it him honest. We know

458
00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:26,640
Speaker 1: this tonight because bipartisan members and the Senate Intelligence Committee

459
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:29,840
Speaker 1: say they've seen no evidence the President Obama ordered Donald

460
00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 1: Trump's phones capture in the campaign. We know this because

461
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:36,760
Speaker 1: House Speaker Paul Ryan also says he's seen no evidence. Now, remember,

462
00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:38,960
Speaker 1: the President asked Congress to investigate in the House and

463
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:41,040
Speaker 1: Senate intelligence committees have been doing just that for the

464
00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:43,800
Speaker 1: last dozen days. We know the President has no facts

465
00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:46,800
Speaker 1: to back up his early morning Saturday tweet storm because

466
00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:50,040
Speaker 1: in today's White House briefing, Press Secretary Shawn Spicer read

467
00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:52,639
Speaker 1: a long list of media reports that he seemed to

468
00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:56,479
Speaker 1: believe back up the president's claims. Media reports Shawan Hannity,

469
00:26:56,760 --> 00:27:00,359
Speaker 1: Judge of Politano, heat Street, The New York Times. Do

470
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:03,080
Speaker 1: you want to see Billy Madison the game show seen?

471
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:06,000
Speaker 1: Everyone in this room is dumber for having listened to that.

472
00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:07,960
Speaker 1: I hope that you're not dumber, and I hope we're

473
00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:11,199
Speaker 1: providing you some information. Just to be clear, no one

474
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:14,840
Speaker 1: mischaracterized with this senten until said, here's a statement. Based

475
00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:17,800
Speaker 1: on the information available to us, we see no indications

476
00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:21,160
Speaker 1: that Trump Tower was the subject of surveillance by any

477
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:24,680
Speaker 1: element of the United States government, either before or after

478
00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:28,600
Speaker 1: election date. Jake, you and I both know they have

479
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:31,480
Speaker 1: broadened the definition of wire tapping in the days since

480
00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:34,400
Speaker 1: the President put out that baseless tweet to include all

481
00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:38,200
Speaker 1: forms of surveillance, because the original tweet is a false claim.

482
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:42,320
Speaker 1: It's a falsehood. And so they're trying to they're trying

483
00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:44,920
Speaker 1: to tap dance around this and tiptoe through the tulips.

484
00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:47,720
Speaker 1: But as you know, it's it's very cold in Washington

485
00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:51,080
Speaker 1: this week, and those answers are just not penetrating. And

486
00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:53,359
Speaker 1: that's why you saw so much skepticism in the room

487
00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:55,240
Speaker 1: today and so many people trying to get an answer

488
00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,320
Speaker 1: to this. It's just a it is a sort of

489
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:01,600
Speaker 1: stupefying thing to watch, Jake. Then, when it became clear

490
00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:04,040
Speaker 1: that both the former Director of National Intelligence and the

491
00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:07,560
Speaker 1: current FBI director were saying this did not happen, they

492
00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:10,399
Speaker 1: started trying to walk it back by claiming that wire

493
00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:14,040
Speaker 1: tapping was in quotes and therefore what President Trump was

494
00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:17,879
Speaker 1: referring to was any kind of surveillance. And moreover, not

495
00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:21,320
Speaker 1: only did President Trump not mean, hey, I was wire

496
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:24,840
Speaker 1: tapped at Trump Tower me personally, it now of course,

497
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:28,000
Speaker 1: the definition had been expanded to include there was surveillance

498
00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:32,000
Speaker 1: conducted and maybe somebody somebody talked to had somebody something

499
00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:35,080
Speaker 1: to do with somebody on the Trump campaign. It's amazing

500
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:37,200
Speaker 1: to watch the White House continue to argue that the

501
00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:46,840
Speaker 1: earth is flat? Here, where are all the retractions? NBC, CNN,

502
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:50,240
Speaker 1: New York Times, Washington Post. And it's even it even

503
00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:54,000
Speaker 1: gets worse than this Obama holdovers at the FBI or

504
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 1: an overdrive, you know what they're trying to cover up

505
00:28:56,560 --> 00:29:01,240
Speaker 1: the truth behind the Golden Shower tassi A. Now that

506
00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:04,320
Speaker 1: was another big lie that was leaked against Trump that

507
00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:06,880
Speaker 1: was false from the get go, call me, wanted paid

508
00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:09,240
Speaker 1: this guy? Who wanted to pay this guy fifty grand?

509
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:13,360
Speaker 1: And after two previous deadlines have come and gone, now

510
00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:18,360
Speaker 1: the House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunez is now demanding

511
00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:21,840
Speaker 1: the FBI director and the Attorney General come clean, explain

512
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:25,000
Speaker 1: what the hell is going on. No documents were produced

513
00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:28,600
Speaker 1: by the latest deadline September fourteen. Now Newness has sent

514
00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:32,040
Speaker 1: a new letter to the FBI director and the Attorney General.

515
00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:35,040
Speaker 1: He said a deadline of Friday for the documents to

516
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:38,920
Speaker 1: be produced. Now, who paid for this looks like Democrats

517
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:41,080
Speaker 1: paid for this. This is the one about hookers in

518
00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:44,560
Speaker 1: a rich Carlton in Russia, which turned out to be false.

519
00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:48,000
Speaker 1: You know, you add all of this together, you literally

520
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 1: had surveillance, unmasking, leaking intelligence which got General Flynn in trouble.

521
00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 1: All was illegal in a violation of the Espionage Act.

522
00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:03,320
Speaker 1: We've got dropping on the Trump team, Manafort, Carter Page,

523
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:06,880
Speaker 1: probably others. I've told that I have been unmasked numerous

524
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:10,239
Speaker 1: times anyway, and I'm no doubt the Obama administration. Why

525
00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 1: was Samantha Powers the U n Ambassador? Why is she

526
00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:19,520
Speaker 1: unmasking hundreds of Trump people and Trump conversations? Now, okay,

527
00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:21,760
Speaker 1: if they went to the FISA court and they got it,

528
00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:24,600
Speaker 1: that would be legal, although that doesn't talk about their

529
00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:28,800
Speaker 1: obligation of minimization. It doesn't talk about leaking intelligence, both

530
00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:33,400
Speaker 1: of which are illegal. And why the high degree of surveillance.

531
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:36,960
Speaker 1: In other words, we give intelligence and the intelligence community

532
00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:40,280
Speaker 1: the tools to do the most powerful things, and that

533
00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:43,560
Speaker 1: is spy on our enemies in the most sophisticated ways

534
00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:47,560
Speaker 1: and unique We have a Fourth Amendment Fourth Amendment protections,

535
00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:50,560
Speaker 1: and if they're using those tools and turning them on

536
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:54,760
Speaker 1: the American people and weaponizing them for political purposes against

537
00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:58,760
Speaker 1: a political opponent in an election year. Well, then there

538
00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:01,760
Speaker 1: is no law in the country. And I've been trying

539
00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:05,160
Speaker 1: to warn everybody now for almost a year about how

540
00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:08,640
Speaker 1: bad this is. And it's now only beginning to come

541
00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:11,520
Speaker 1: to light. And the complicit media is up to their

542
00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:16,040
Speaker 1: eyeballs in lying for the Democrats and lying for the

543
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:20,280
Speaker 1: government and lying about illegal activities. And I'm telling you, TikTok,

544
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:23,360
Speaker 1: this is only the beginning. There's so much more that

545
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:25,400
Speaker 1: is going to be coming out. Stay here. We will

546
00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 1: have it all for you. We'll continue. So my staff

547
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:31,680
Speaker 1: is giving me the hard Why are you giving me

548
00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:35,840
Speaker 1: the hardest time? You know? So the movie that we

549
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:38,920
Speaker 1: that I produced an executive producer, and this has been

550
00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:40,680
Speaker 1: in the works for two years now. I haven't talked

551
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:44,600
Speaker 1: a lot about it yet. It's coming out October anyway.

552
00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:49,640
Speaker 1: In Toronto, it won the Best Picture and it won.

553
00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:54,800
Speaker 1: It's the Canadian International Faith and Family Film Festival and

554
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:58,840
Speaker 1: it won Best Picture. And Linda and Laurena laughing at me,

555
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:00,840
Speaker 1: why is oh, is it gonna win an oscar? Now

556
00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:03,760
Speaker 1: You're gonna go out to Hollywood and walk the redd. Well, what, No,

557
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:06,520
Speaker 1: I'm not. Why would you say all those mean things?

558
00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:08,440
Speaker 1: Why would you do that? I would never say something

559
00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:10,840
Speaker 1: that means I don't know what you're lying to the audience.

560
00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:12,480
Speaker 1: You were just making fun of me, both of you.

561
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:14,880
Speaker 1: I make fun of you regularly. This movie has nothing

562
00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:18,040
Speaker 1: to do with it, So I'm not going to Hollywood.

563
00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:23,440
Speaker 1: Good grief. The most beneficial aspect of this bill is follows.

564
00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:25,960
Speaker 1: If you don't like Obamacare, who do you complain to?

565
00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:28,320
Speaker 1: You can complain to me, but I sure as hell

566
00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:31,080
Speaker 1: don't run it. If I could get South Carolina in

567
00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:33,960
Speaker 1: charge of this money that would have been spent in

568
00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:38,600
Speaker 1: Washington by bureaucrat who's unelected, I promise every South Carolinian

569
00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:41,280
Speaker 1: the following, if you don't like your health care, somebody

570
00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:44,600
Speaker 1: will listen to you. He's your governor and your statehouse representative.

571
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:49,080
Speaker 1: All right. That is Lindsey Graham talking about his healthcare proposal.

572
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:52,200
Speaker 1: And that is the Cassidy Graham Bill. And this would

573
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:55,400
Speaker 1: have to be done before September. The Senate, ever, hopes

574
00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:58,320
Speaker 1: to use the reconciliation process or only needing fifty votes

575
00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:01,440
Speaker 1: to get it done. Uh, it looks like after I've

576
00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:03,600
Speaker 1: spoken now with the number of members of the Senate

577
00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:07,400
Speaker 1: that they're probably about one vote away from from having

578
00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:09,560
Speaker 1: the votes to pass this. I have spoken to the

579
00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:12,880
Speaker 1: Freedom Caucus Tuesday group members and some of the leadership

580
00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 1: in the House, and as they talk about the issue

581
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:17,680
Speaker 1: of federalism or the issue of sending sending you know,

582
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:21,520
Speaker 1: issues back to the states and allowing them to pick

583
00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:24,880
Speaker 1: what works best for them. Um, it seems like they

584
00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:27,440
Speaker 1: would have the majority in both in the House of

585
00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:29,920
Speaker 1: in fact the Senate passes this. It looks like the

586
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:34,360
Speaker 1: four people that we're watching closely on this Lisa Murkowski again. Uh,

587
00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:37,520
Speaker 1: we also have Susan Collins again, and then it would

588
00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:40,440
Speaker 1: be John McCain and Senator Ram Paul who joins us now.

589
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:43,840
Speaker 1: And for your programming purposes, Lindsey Graham will be on

590
00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:46,920
Speaker 1: this program tomorrow a rare appearance. Ran Paul is a

591
00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:48,960
Speaker 1: regular on the program and a front of the program.

592
00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:51,640
Speaker 1: And Uh, I know you have some strong reasons why

593
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:53,960
Speaker 1: you're not supporting it. How are you, very good? Sean?

594
00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:56,400
Speaker 1: Thanks for having me. Yeah. You know, as a physician,

595
00:33:56,960 --> 00:33:59,920
Speaker 1: I've seen Obamacare up close and personal, and it does

596
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:01,880
Speaker 1: at work. It's a horror. So I think we all

597
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:04,200
Speaker 1: agree that it's a terrible system, but I want to

598
00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:06,320
Speaker 1: repeal it. You know, I've been going to Tea Party

599
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:09,520
Speaker 1: rallies for six years. We had hundreds of thousands of

600
00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:11,759
Speaker 1: people gathering on the mall here. You were here at

601
00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:14,320
Speaker 1: some of these Tea Party rallies. They were for repeal,

602
00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:17,799
Speaker 1: they weren't for keeping Obamacare. The Graham Cassidy bill keeps

603
00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:21,160
Speaker 1: nine of the spending of the taxes and then just

604
00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:24,520
Speaker 1: reshuffles the formula to send the money to Republican states.

605
00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:27,000
Speaker 1: And this is not the first time Lindsay Graham got

606
00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:30,960
Speaker 1: confused about the Constitution or federalism. The Tenth Amendment says

607
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:33,960
Speaker 1: that those powers not granted to the federal government or

608
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:36,239
Speaker 1: reserve for the states. You know. It doesn't say you

609
00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:38,600
Speaker 1: can have a federal tax and then we're gonna divvy

610
00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:40,960
Speaker 1: it up to the states, and that's somehow federalism. No

611
00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:44,480
Speaker 1: federalism would be saying Kentucky can tax its people and

612
00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:47,680
Speaker 1: have a government run system if they wish. But it

613
00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:49,800
Speaker 1: doesn't say, oh, we're gonna have a federal tax and

614
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,400
Speaker 1: then we're gonna disperse it. That being said, would I

615
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:54,759
Speaker 1: vote for a block grant. Yeah, if you want to

616
00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:57,960
Speaker 1: block grant before the Obamacare spending. I don't want to

617
00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:00,759
Speaker 1: keep Obamacare and block granted. If you want to go

618
00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:04,240
Speaker 1: back to before Obamacare, before we started adding a trillion

619
00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:08,000
Speaker 1: dollars of spending, sure, I'll block grant what we traditionally

620
00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:11,320
Speaker 1: have done on Medicaid, I'll reform Medicaid. I'll vote to

621
00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:14,240
Speaker 1: get rid of the mandates. I've voted for every repeal

622
00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:16,239
Speaker 1: that has come down the pike, and we'll continue to

623
00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:18,600
Speaker 1: do so. But people who have followed the career of

624
00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:22,000
Speaker 1: Lindsey Graham will realize that this is smoking mirrors and

625
00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:26,480
Speaker 1: this is keeping Obamacare. There's sales pitches exactly that Cassidy's

626
00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:28,840
Speaker 1: gone around the country saying, if you like Obamacare, you

627
00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 1: can keep it. That's his sales bitch. Here's where I

628
00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:34,560
Speaker 1: agree with you and where I have maybe a slight

629
00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:36,560
Speaker 1: disagreement with you, And you know, I have a lot

630
00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:39,719
Speaker 1: of questions too. I spent probably an hour and a

631
00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:42,400
Speaker 1: half talking to Mark Meadows of the Freedom Caucus, and

632
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:45,800
Speaker 1: there are certain specific things that he and Congressman Bratt

633
00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:48,440
Speaker 1: and Congressman Goldmart and a few others in the Freedom

634
00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:51,439
Speaker 1: Caucus are looking at specifically before they can support. Here's

635
00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:53,759
Speaker 1: where we are, though, and this is just the reality. Now.

636
00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:57,000
Speaker 1: We're facing some hard truths here. I never expected, as

637
00:35:57,040 --> 00:36:00,480
Speaker 1: you never expected, that seven Republicans in the Senate that

638
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:04,919
Speaker 1: voted for full repeal when Obama's president in t would

639
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:08,320
Speaker 1: turn around when it could become a reality and literally

640
00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:11,600
Speaker 1: stab their constituents in the back and the party for

641
00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:14,759
Speaker 1: that matter. That's the reality, that is the that's the

642
00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:17,400
Speaker 1: current situation that exists in the U. S. Senate, in

643
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:20,640
Speaker 1: the US House, we learned very quickly that there were

644
00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:24,400
Speaker 1: probably about a hundred Republicans that had no intention of

645
00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:28,640
Speaker 1: ever repealing and replacing Obamacare. All those votes, those sixty

646
00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:31,440
Speaker 1: plus votes to repeal and replace when Obama was president,

647
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:34,880
Speaker 1: were nothing more than show votes and political posturing on

648
00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:39,440
Speaker 1: their part. So, understanding the reality, any option we discussed

649
00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:42,600
Speaker 1: from here moving forward is never gonna be the option

650
00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:45,320
Speaker 1: that ran. Paul ted Cruze, Sean Hannity of the Freedom

651
00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:47,440
Speaker 1: Caucus wants you do agree with that. Well, what I

652
00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:49,759
Speaker 1: would say is, though, but if we haven't dwindled to

653
00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,720
Speaker 1: one option, so if they get Graham Cassidy to the floor,

654
00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:56,000
Speaker 1: I will offer an amendment for straight repeal, and people

655
00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:58,680
Speaker 1: once again, we'll have a choice, and so people can

656
00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:02,120
Speaker 1: direct their ire to someone who doesn't vote for what

657
00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:05,879
Speaker 1: I think is immortalizing Obamacare, keeping it forever and diving

658
00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:07,800
Speaker 1: it up among the states, or they can vote for

659
00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:10,960
Speaker 1: a complete repeal that I'll put forward, and so then

660
00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:13,520
Speaker 1: Republicans will just have decide which they want. But I

661
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:16,239
Speaker 1: think if you put up on a ballot in any

662
00:37:16,280 --> 00:37:19,520
Speaker 1: Republican primary anywhere in the US my proposal for a

663
00:37:19,719 --> 00:37:25,760
Speaker 1: complete repeal with a replacement of legalizing inexpensive insurance, health associations, etcetera,

664
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:27,840
Speaker 1: I think I went on the ballot every time. So

665
00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:29,440
Speaker 1: I'm not really afraid of why do you think that?

666
00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:32,240
Speaker 1: But why do you think that's not happening. Why because

667
00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:34,279
Speaker 1: we elected the people of the swamp. Have you not

668
00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:36,400
Speaker 1: seen the swamp. It's full of people who promised to

669
00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:40,560
Speaker 1: repeal Obamacare got up here. But you're reiterating My point

670
00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:43,520
Speaker 1: is here's here's the truth that I am just facing.

671
00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:46,919
Speaker 1: I I am facing a reality that the swamp people

672
00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:50,000
Speaker 1: that include Republicans. And if you watch my show, you

673
00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:52,239
Speaker 1: listen to the radio show, and you can you know

674
00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:56,160
Speaker 1: how harsh I have been towards the Republicans, especially your buddy,

675
00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:59,160
Speaker 1: your fellow senator from Kentucky. You know that I'm disgusted.

676
00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:01,640
Speaker 1: You know that everybody that's listening to you now that

677
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:04,200
Speaker 1: those people that were with us in part of the

678
00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:07,560
Speaker 1: Tea Party movement, those that want the President's agenda Repeal

679
00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:10,600
Speaker 1: and replaced done, we wanted the promise kept. That promise

680
00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:13,400
Speaker 1: is not gonna get kept. It's not hand promise, right,

681
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:15,880
Speaker 1: and the promise won't be kept with Graham Cassidy because

682
00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:19,560
Speaker 1: it keeps Obamacare and just splits up. This is the

683
00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:21,960
Speaker 1: way their light, and it is not a repeal bill.

684
00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:25,719
Speaker 1: Let me listen. I I supported you and the repeal bill.

685
00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:28,920
Speaker 1: I pushed like you did to get that repealed bill vote,

686
00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:31,239
Speaker 1: and you were asking for it, and you got it.

687
00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:34,320
Speaker 1: And was it six or seven senators you know? The

688
00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:37,480
Speaker 1: six of them I believe voted for it when it

689
00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:40,839
Speaker 1: was never gonna get signed. Now they would vote when

690
00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:43,320
Speaker 1: it would get signed. Well, here's what our predict happens.

691
00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:46,400
Speaker 1: Let's say that Graham Cassidy fails, which I'm hopeful that

692
00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:49,759
Speaker 1: we do not keep Obamacare and it fails, then Obamacare

693
00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:52,440
Speaker 1: that exists won't be a Republican plan. The Democrat plan

694
00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:55,080
Speaker 1: will still be out there, and it will fail horribly

695
00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:57,319
Speaker 1: over the next six months to a year, and then

696
00:38:57,440 --> 00:39:00,720
Speaker 1: maybe we'll develop enough backbone among the swim MP creatures

697
00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:03,560
Speaker 1: that inhabit the Republican Caucus to see if we can

698
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:05,920
Speaker 1: get a vote. But I'll tell you one other positive thing. Look,

699
00:39:05,960 --> 00:39:09,920
Speaker 1: I'm gonna we had that vote what two months ago.

700
00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:15,200
Speaker 1: That unfolds. I think as Obamacare unravels, there may well

701
00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:16,920
Speaker 1: be a change of opinion. But here's the other thing

702
00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:19,920
Speaker 1: I'll tell you. I spoke with President Trump yesterday. I'm

703
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:22,840
Speaker 1: still working with him on the healthcare associations that I

704
00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:28,560
Speaker 1: think he can do through presidential authority. Chance he does

705
00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:31,879
Speaker 1: that within two weeks. He's promised me yesterday it's gonna

706
00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:35,400
Speaker 1: get done, that we are going to expand healthcare associations

707
00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:37,600
Speaker 1: and that individuals are going to be able to purchase

708
00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:41,600
Speaker 1: insurance across state. Here's my only question. I'll ask Graham

709
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:43,600
Speaker 1: this tomorrow. One of the reasons that I think it

710
00:39:43,719 --> 00:39:45,880
Speaker 1: was attractive and the arguments, and you love the Freedom

711
00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:48,160
Speaker 1: Caucus guys, and they love you, and the reason they're

712
00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:50,680
Speaker 1: inclined to support it is for the very reason you

713
00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:54,239
Speaker 1: said is that healthcare cooperatives and and look I have

714
00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:57,160
Speaker 1: been I have had on this program. How many years, Linda,

715
00:39:57,280 --> 00:40:00,279
Speaker 1: we had Dr Josh Mber on this program talk about

716
00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:03,080
Speaker 1: health cooperatives or at least the past five years. I

717
00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:06,080
Speaker 1: think it's longer than's like six seven years. And I've

718
00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:08,520
Speaker 1: been talking about health savings accounts for at least fifteen

719
00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:12,080
Speaker 1: years when I first read Cato institutes um Musgrave and

720
00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:16,399
Speaker 1: Goodman patient power. So I'm listen in an ideal world center.

721
00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:20,640
Speaker 1: I'm with you, But world, this is going to happen, John,

722
00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:23,640
Speaker 1: This is happening in two weeks. Millions of people are

723
00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:25,759
Speaker 1: going to be eligible to buy insurance across I don't

724
00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:27,719
Speaker 1: have to Why do we have to wait two weeks? Then?

725
00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:29,520
Speaker 1: Why don't we just do it now? It's just well,

726
00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:31,719
Speaker 1: I don't. I'm not controlling this. The president is. But

727
00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:33,920
Speaker 1: it is coming. They have been working on it for months.

728
00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:37,760
Speaker 1: They're writing the regulations and it is coming within two weeks.

729
00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:40,879
Speaker 1: And the thing is is there's about eleven million people

730
00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:43,799
Speaker 1: in the individual market. Most of them, if not all

731
00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:46,600
Speaker 1: of them, would be eligible to join in association. So

732
00:40:46,719 --> 00:40:49,560
Speaker 1: instead of subsidizing the problem, instead of putting money in,

733
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:53,719
Speaker 1: instead of just having this massive program Graham Cassidy keeps

734
00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:56,160
Speaker 1: all that money, and it doesn't reduce the spending. It

735
00:40:56,239 --> 00:40:58,200
Speaker 1: actually just gives the money back to the states. I

736
00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:00,680
Speaker 1: want to actually get to a market place where people

737
00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:03,560
Speaker 1: have the freedom to buy inexpensive insurance. The President is

738
00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:05,800
Speaker 1: going to go a long way towards this. Three questions

739
00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:07,840
Speaker 1: that I got answered from the freedom caucuse. One, it

740
00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:11,080
Speaker 1: would allow people once again to buy catastrophic plans, which

741
00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:14,160
Speaker 1: we both know is illegal under Obamacare. Number Two, it

742
00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:17,560
Speaker 1: would facilitate states and their rights to go forward with

743
00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:20,799
Speaker 1: health savings accounts. That's the checklist for me. Number Three,

744
00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:24,640
Speaker 1: it would allow the healthcare cooperative business like like Atlas,

745
00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:27,319
Speaker 1: m D and josh Umber and ones that you've ad

746
00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:30,200
Speaker 1: vocated and I've discussed with you for years, that would

747
00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:32,279
Speaker 1: be part of it too, So that is the only

748
00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:35,560
Speaker 1: appealing part for me. Well, actually, the healthcare cooperatives, the

749
00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:39,560
Speaker 1: healthcare association plans are not part of Graham Cassidy expanding

750
00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:41,880
Speaker 1: hs A that the states would be able to choose

751
00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:44,000
Speaker 1: it the state in other words, perhaps I mean it

752
00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:46,839
Speaker 1: was still the governor of Kentucky like in other words,

753
00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:49,560
Speaker 1: the idea, but then it would be a state plan.

754
00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:51,920
Speaker 1: It wouldn't be a national plan. Why doesn't have to

755
00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:54,719
Speaker 1: be a national plan? Why it don't states run things better?

756
00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:56,960
Speaker 1: Don't we want to send education back to states? Well,

757
00:41:57,000 --> 00:41:59,040
Speaker 1: now I'm not talking about government. I'm talking about for

758
00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:02,040
Speaker 1: a healthcare associate creation. The bigger they are, the better,

759
00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:04,960
Speaker 1: so they can buy across state lines. Then you get

760
00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:07,080
Speaker 1: millions of people involved in them. But I'm not talking

761
00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:12,680
Speaker 1: government Kentucky about private association. Couldn't Kentucky partner would say

762
00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:17,279
Speaker 1: Ohio or Kentucky partner with another deificated for that if

763
00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:19,280
Speaker 1: we don't get the national But I think we're getting

764
00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:23,880
Speaker 1: ready to legalize nationwide associations and it's going to be

765
00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:26,800
Speaker 1: huge as far as trying to bring down prices. It

766
00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:29,440
Speaker 1: may be the biggest reform we've ever had to healthcare.

767
00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:32,120
Speaker 1: And it's coming within the next week or two. So

768
00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:34,480
Speaker 1: really there are parallel tracks. What I'm saying is the

769
00:42:34,560 --> 00:42:37,560
Speaker 1: only game in town is not this Graham Cassidy thing.

770
00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:41,040
Speaker 1: And I also would would want people to know that

771
00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:45,200
Speaker 1: it keeps Obamacare spending and taxes and then just redistributed

772
00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:47,719
Speaker 1: to the state. That's not really federalism. In fact, if

773
00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:50,560
Speaker 1: you ask your listeners, it's not your federalism. I'm not

774
00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:53,040
Speaker 1: disagreeing with it's not but would they vote if you

775
00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:55,640
Speaker 1: ask your listeners, would they vote for a trillion dollars

776
00:42:55,680 --> 00:42:58,640
Speaker 1: in taxes if we said, well, once we collect the money,

777
00:42:58,640 --> 00:43:00,560
Speaker 1: we're gonna pass it back to the state. Eights in

778
00:43:00,640 --> 00:43:02,719
Speaker 1: the states will be in charge of spending it. So

779
00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:05,440
Speaker 1: we've been two thousand and ten. The choices were Obamacare

780
00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:08,640
Speaker 1: that we got or a Republican Obamacare that had the

781
00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:11,400
Speaker 1: same taxes but then sent the money to the states

782
00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:13,800
Speaker 1: to be stanton block grants. We still would have just

783
00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:18,600
Speaker 1: gone crazy. We just did no way. The last generation

784
00:43:18,680 --> 00:43:21,160
Speaker 1: of these bills, I understood it. It took away a

785
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:23,279
Speaker 1: lot of the Obamacare taxes. But you know, I won't

786
00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:27,200
Speaker 1: know until I listen like everything. Second, I won't know

787
00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:30,440
Speaker 1: until I get the bill. And that's the problem. You

788
00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:33,080
Speaker 1: can never get the bills to read them. So I

789
00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:36,320
Speaker 1: don't know specifically, nor can I promise this audience, and

790
00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:39,560
Speaker 1: so neither of us know exactly. But I know that

791
00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:43,120
Speaker 1: the negotiations that did go on talked about eliminating most

792
00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:45,400
Speaker 1: of the Obamacare taxes, if not all of them. All right,

793
00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:47,640
Speaker 1: gotta take a break. Senator Paul Stay right there. Lindsey

794
00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:49,759
Speaker 1: Graham will be on us on the program tomorrow to

795
00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:51,799
Speaker 1: take the other side of this. Will be ideal if

796
00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:53,920
Speaker 1: we could have them on together. Anyway, we'll do it

797
00:43:54,040 --> 00:43:56,560
Speaker 1: this way first, uh, and we'll take a break, come back,

798
00:43:56,640 --> 00:44:01,640
Speaker 1: we'll continue, all right. As we continue with Senator Ram

799
00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:04,880
Speaker 1: Paul of Kentucky, I was told specifically, it gets rid

800
00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:08,120
Speaker 1: of the individual mandate and the employer mandate. That is true,

801
00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:13,359
Speaker 1: That is true. I don't want to be I don't

802
00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:15,359
Speaker 1: I'm not on the I'm not on the wrong. I'm

803
00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:16,920
Speaker 1: not on the opposite side of you here, and I

804
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:19,040
Speaker 1: just want you to listen to me. I totally agree

805
00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:21,080
Speaker 1: with you. If what you're saying is an option. I

806
00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:25,520
Speaker 1: choose your the option of the President allowing the health cooperatives,

807
00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:27,719
Speaker 1: and I think that's the better option. If he has

808
00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:29,839
Speaker 1: the power and ability to do that. Are you saying

809
00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:33,720
Speaker 1: that he's going to do it through the the prerogatives

810
00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:37,239
Speaker 1: and authoritative power that exists in the Obamacare bill and

811
00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:39,480
Speaker 1: Secretary Price would have the ability to do all this.

812
00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:43,000
Speaker 1: It actually comes from the nineteen seventy four law called Arissa.

813
00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:45,000
Speaker 1: And right now, the one thing, and this is one

814
00:44:45,040 --> 00:44:47,439
Speaker 1: thing that's really important that people don't quite get. There's

815
00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:49,960
Speaker 1: one part of our insurance market that actually works, and

816
00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:54,120
Speaker 1: it's called large group insurance across state lines and with

817
00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:57,280
Speaker 1: self insurance, and these are Arissa plans. And the interesting

818
00:44:57,320 --> 00:44:59,360
Speaker 1: thing about it, if you work for a large corporation

819
00:44:59,440 --> 00:45:02,239
Speaker 1: that's in any different states, you have what's called large

820
00:45:02,280 --> 00:45:05,040
Speaker 1: group insurance. The premiums have been going up like two

821
00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:08,520
Speaker 1: or three percent a year, You're protected against pre existing conditions,

822
00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:10,960
Speaker 1: you have all the things you want in this insurance.

823
00:45:11,320 --> 00:45:15,000
Speaker 1: And guess what, because of this large group nationwide ruling,

824
00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:18,239
Speaker 1: your exempt from most of the a c A requirements,

825
00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:21,160
Speaker 1: most of the Obamacare requirements. Your exempt and your exempt

826
00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:24,439
Speaker 1: from state regulations. So this is a unique thing where

827
00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:28,839
Speaker 1: you're exempt from both state insurance regulations and from Obamacare regulations.

828
00:45:29,080 --> 00:45:31,839
Speaker 1: And it's sold right now, last third of the marketplace.

829
00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:35,480
Speaker 1: The time frame in which you're discussing this happening, and

830
00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:38,560
Speaker 1: this would be I assume through executive action of the President.

831
00:45:38,719 --> 00:45:41,600
Speaker 1: The time frame I think what you're discussing here is

832
00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:44,200
Speaker 1: an Obamacare still would be the law of the land,

833
00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:47,439
Speaker 1: as I understand it would be after the reconciliation data

834
00:45:47,480 --> 00:45:50,360
Speaker 1: September thirty does that impact anything. It doesn't have to

835
00:45:50,440 --> 00:45:53,359
Speaker 1: go through Congress because the law in nineteen seventy four

836
00:45:53,719 --> 00:45:56,759
Speaker 1: set out these parameters and then regulations. As you know,

837
00:45:56,920 --> 00:45:59,960
Speaker 1: the executive branch looks at the regulations and interprets these regulation.

838
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:03,160
Speaker 1: Our understanding is that we've looked at the law. They've

839
00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:05,920
Speaker 1: looked at the law, and their belief is that the

840
00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:11,239
Speaker 1: existing law allows for more expansive understanding of who can

841
00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:14,000
Speaker 1: form a healthcare association. So really what we've had is

842
00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:16,920
Speaker 1: we've had people in the past turning down healthcare associations.

843
00:46:17,200 --> 00:46:20,080
Speaker 1: We believe that the new interpretation will allow things like

844
00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:23,640
Speaker 1: the National resid Challenge in the courts don't know that,

845
00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:25,880
Speaker 1: but I do know that they would be suing to

846
00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:28,960
Speaker 1: stop people from getting inexpensive insurance. So I think the

847
00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:31,479
Speaker 1: public relations of trying to sue to prevent people getting

848
00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:34,120
Speaker 1: cheaper insurance won't be great. All right, We don't disagree,

849
00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:37,239
Speaker 1: I mean, and the reason we even have to have

850
00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:41,120
Speaker 1: this discussion is beyond the pale to me, because Republicans

851
00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:44,319
Speaker 1: in your body and in the House stabbed their constituents

852
00:46:44,360 --> 00:46:47,719
Speaker 1: in the back with phony promises. So really none of

853
00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:50,680
Speaker 1: these are the ideal option. This is the next best

854
00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:53,600
Speaker 1: thing we can do in either case. You agree with that, right, Well,

855
00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:56,200
Speaker 1: we're gonna keep promoting real repeal, and so when this

856
00:46:56,320 --> 00:47:00,120
Speaker 1: comes up week, well, the thing is is that that's

857
00:47:00,160 --> 00:47:02,040
Speaker 1: what voters will have to decide though, if we have

858
00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:04,520
Speaker 1: a real repeal and a fake repeal, which one are

859
00:47:04,520 --> 00:47:07,200
Speaker 1: they for? If they are still for real repeal, They're

860
00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:10,080
Speaker 1: going to see how people vote, and I will repeal.

861
00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:12,759
Speaker 1: After what happened on your bill that you got on

862
00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:16,160
Speaker 1: the floor, and they've same one and they voted against it,

863
00:47:16,239 --> 00:47:17,840
Speaker 1: the same people that have voted for it. I just

864
00:47:18,040 --> 00:47:20,120
Speaker 1: I threw my hands up and discussed, well, we're gonna

865
00:47:20,120 --> 00:47:22,520
Speaker 1: try to do even one better than we're gonna put

866
00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:25,520
Speaker 1: forward a real repeal bill. And even if we get cooperatives,

867
00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:27,600
Speaker 1: you know where I stand. I think I'm the only

868
00:47:27,680 --> 00:47:30,040
Speaker 1: person in the country that talks at length about cooperatives

869
00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:32,279
Speaker 1: and health savings accounts. Do it all the t A

870
00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:34,160
Speaker 1: big part of the answer, A huge part of the answer.

871
00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:36,800
Speaker 1: I agree, alright, totally agreeing, alright, Senator, we love you,

872
00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:40,520
Speaker 1: Thank you one Sean. We'll have Lindsay Graham respond to

873
00:47:40,520 --> 00:47:42,319
Speaker 1: all those tomorrow. I'll take a quick break. We'll come

874
00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:44,680
Speaker 1: back a lot of news today on the other side,

875
00:47:44,760 --> 00:47:47,959
Speaker 1: including yeah, oh guess what, there was surveillance at Donald

876
00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:50,360
Speaker 1: Trump and his campaign. That's next, can even thanks for

877
00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:52,480
Speaker 1: joining us tonight. We know the President of the United

878
00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:55,400
Speaker 1: States has no facts, no facts to back up his

879
00:47:55,480 --> 00:47:58,400
Speaker 1: startling allegation that the former president, the United States President

880
00:47:58,440 --> 00:48:00,960
Speaker 1: Obama wire tapped him and Trump Tower during the campaign.

881
00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:03,480
Speaker 1: Keep it him honest. We know this tonight because bi

882
00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:06,080
Speaker 1: part of the members and the Senate Intelligence committees say

883
00:48:06,080 --> 00:48:09,440
Speaker 1: they've seen no evidence the President Obama ordered Donald Trump's

884
00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:12,400
Speaker 1: phones capture in the campaign. We know this because how

885
00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:15,960
Speaker 1: Speaker Paul Ryan also says he's seen no evidence. Now, remember,

886
00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:18,160
Speaker 1: the President asked Congress to investigate in the House and

887
00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:20,239
Speaker 1: Senate intelligence committees have been doing just that for the

888
00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:23,000
Speaker 1: last dozen days. We know the President has no facts

889
00:48:23,080 --> 00:48:26,000
Speaker 1: to back up his early morning Saturday tweet storm because

890
00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:29,279
Speaker 1: in today's White House briefing, Press Secretary Sewan Spicer read

891
00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:31,880
Speaker 1: a long list of media reports that he seemed to

892
00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:35,680
Speaker 1: believe back up the president's claims. Media reports Sean Hannity,

893
00:48:35,960 --> 00:48:39,600
Speaker 1: Judge of Politano, heat Street, The New York Times, Do

894
00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:42,279
Speaker 1: you want to see Billy Madison the game show seen

895
00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:45,200
Speaker 1: everyone in this room is dumber for having listened to that.

896
00:48:45,680 --> 00:48:47,200
Speaker 1: I hope that you're not dumber, and I hope we're

897
00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:50,239
Speaker 1: providing you some information. And just to be clear, no

898
00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:53,520
Speaker 1: one mischaracterized with this Senate until said, here's a statement.

899
00:48:53,800 --> 00:48:56,200
Speaker 1: Based on the information available to us, we see no

900
00:48:56,400 --> 00:49:00,399
Speaker 1: indications that Trump Tower was the subject of surveillance any

901
00:49:00,480 --> 00:49:03,919
Speaker 1: element of the United States government either before or after

902
00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:07,800
Speaker 1: election date. Jake, you and I both know they have

903
00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:10,719
Speaker 1: broadened the definition of wire tapping in the days since

904
00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:13,600
Speaker 1: the President put out that baseless tweet to include all

905
00:49:13,719 --> 00:49:17,400
Speaker 1: forms of surveillance, because the original tweet is a false claim.

906
00:49:17,880 --> 00:49:21,279
Speaker 1: It's a falsehood, and so that they're trying to they're

907
00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:24,160
Speaker 1: trying to tap dance around this and tiptoe through the tulips.

908
00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:26,920
Speaker 1: But as you know, it's it's very cold in Washington

909
00:49:27,040 --> 00:49:30,320
Speaker 1: this week, and those answers are just not penetrating. And

910
00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:32,600
Speaker 1: that's why you saw so much skepticism in the room

911
00:49:32,640 --> 00:49:34,439
Speaker 1: today and so many people trying to get an answer

912
00:49:34,520 --> 00:49:37,520
Speaker 1: to this. It's just a it is a sort of

913
00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:40,840
Speaker 1: stupefying thing to watch. Jake. Then, when it became clear

914
00:49:40,960 --> 00:49:43,239
Speaker 1: that both the former director of National Intelligence and the

915
00:49:43,320 --> 00:49:46,759
Speaker 1: current FBI director were saying this did not happen. They

916
00:49:46,840 --> 00:49:49,640
Speaker 1: started trying to walk it back by claiming that wire

917
00:49:49,719 --> 00:49:53,239
Speaker 1: tapping was in quotes and therefore what President Trump was

918
00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:56,200
Speaker 1: referring to was any kind of surveillance. It's amazing to

919
00:49:56,239 --> 00:49:58,799
Speaker 1: watch the White House continue to argue that the Earth

920
00:49:58,960 --> 00:50:08,240
Speaker 1: is flat. Well, CNN is now reporting something very differently

921
00:50:08,440 --> 00:50:12,160
Speaker 1: that in fact, it did take place, and Paul Manafort

922
00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:15,920
Speaker 1: was the one that was wire tapped. Oh, a CNN

923
00:50:16,000 --> 00:50:20,480
Speaker 1: exclusive US government wire tapped former Trump campaign manager. Is

924
00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:23,920
Speaker 1: the headline shocking. That was all CNN calling the President

925
00:50:23,960 --> 00:50:26,759
Speaker 1: a liar. That was all CNN being wrong. I was

926
00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:31,799
Speaker 1: all CNN calling anybody that saw this. And again, our

927
00:50:31,880 --> 00:50:34,880
Speaker 1: sources were very different that in fact, it all had happened,

928
00:50:34,960 --> 00:50:36,880
Speaker 1: and we were the earliest to tell you that it

929
00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:40,080
Speaker 1: had happened. Remember, we had Sarah Carter, we had John

930
00:50:40,120 --> 00:50:43,560
Speaker 1: Solomon on this program in early March. We were talking

931
00:50:43,640 --> 00:50:46,800
Speaker 1: about how it had all happened, how there were FISA warrants,

932
00:50:46,840 --> 00:50:48,960
Speaker 1: how in fact there was a criminal warrant, how in

933
00:50:49,080 --> 00:50:54,960
Speaker 1: fact there was surveillance, unmasking, illegal leaking of intelligence, violation,

934
00:50:55,280 --> 00:50:58,640
Speaker 1: Espionage Act, and on and on and on. So what's

935
00:50:58,800 --> 00:51:02,120
Speaker 1: very clear here is that, Yeah, the Obama administration. You know,

936
00:51:02,200 --> 00:51:06,279
Speaker 1: why was Samantha Powers unmasking hundreds of people, mostly Trump

937
00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:08,800
Speaker 1: people and Susan Rice? Why was she involved in it?

938
00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:11,560
Speaker 1: Why was Ben Rhodes involved in it? What? Why is

939
00:51:11,680 --> 00:51:14,640
Speaker 1: it that nobody that was in a high ranking position

940
00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:17,560
Speaker 1: in the NSC or the CIA or any of these

941
00:51:17,600 --> 00:51:20,600
Speaker 1: other positions under Obama, why didn't they question what was

942
00:51:20,680 --> 00:51:23,600
Speaker 1: going on here? We give them the most powerful tools

943
00:51:23,640 --> 00:51:26,440
Speaker 1: of surveillance for a reason, and that is to protect

944
00:51:26,560 --> 00:51:30,600
Speaker 1: Americans from our enemies. Those tools of surveillance are not

945
00:51:30,840 --> 00:51:33,759
Speaker 1: to be turned on the American people. I had said

946
00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:36,040
Speaker 1: at the time, I'll say it again. If it happens,

947
00:51:36,400 --> 00:51:39,959
Speaker 1: it's the beginning of a police state mana fort Carter

948
00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:43,440
Speaker 1: Page others. So Trump was right, Trump was right, and

949
00:51:43,719 --> 00:51:46,600
Speaker 1: I was right, and many others were right. And there

950
00:51:46,680 --> 00:51:50,239
Speaker 1: I have zero doubt they were listening in on Trump conversations.

951
00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:53,400
Speaker 1: The only question is whether it was legal. When was

952
00:51:53,480 --> 00:51:56,920
Speaker 1: the fire visa war and obtained? If so, that portion

953
00:51:57,040 --> 00:51:59,880
Speaker 1: would be legal. And if there is a FIZA war,

954
00:52:00,239 --> 00:52:02,600
Speaker 1: well did they practice what they're supposed to practice, which

955
00:52:02,640 --> 00:52:06,879
Speaker 1: is minimization once they recognize an American voice on the call,

956
00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:10,719
Speaker 1: they're supposed to minimize and certainly never unmask that individual.

957
00:52:10,840 --> 00:52:13,000
Speaker 1: But we know in fact they did it to General Flynn.

958
00:52:13,160 --> 00:52:15,440
Speaker 1: And beyond this, we know the Trump transition team and

959
00:52:15,520 --> 00:52:18,640
Speaker 1: officials were caught up an incidental collection of surveillance and

960
00:52:18,719 --> 00:52:21,239
Speaker 1: Susan Rice and others, Samantha Powers, Why is the U.

961
00:52:21,400 --> 00:52:24,440
Speaker 1: N Ambassador asking for the unmasking of of people in

962
00:52:24,480 --> 00:52:27,239
Speaker 1: the Trump campaign? And so now the real question is

963
00:52:27,320 --> 00:52:30,200
Speaker 1: is what they did legal or illegal? You know What's

964
00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:33,320
Speaker 1: another reason at this point a FISA and the FISA

965
00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:36,080
Speaker 1: courts and warrants need to be This all needs to

966
00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:39,319
Speaker 1: be revised because the powerful tools of surveillance where they

967
00:52:39,360 --> 00:52:42,400
Speaker 1: can listen to anybody's conversation now could be used against

968
00:52:42,480 --> 00:52:45,520
Speaker 1: the American citizen and that would have take away everybody's

969
00:52:45,560 --> 00:52:48,920
Speaker 1: Fourth Amendment protections. Joining us now, Dan Bongino is with us,

970
00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:50,759
Speaker 1: by the way, he has a great brand new book

971
00:52:50,800 --> 00:52:53,960
Speaker 1: out today, Protecting the President and inside account of the

972
00:52:54,080 --> 00:52:57,520
Speaker 1: troubled Secret Service and an era of evolving threats. It

973
00:52:57,560 --> 00:53:00,279
Speaker 1: gives a rare glimpse inside what the Secret Serves is

974
00:53:00,480 --> 00:53:02,279
Speaker 1: involved in what they do. And I can tell you

975
00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:05,040
Speaker 1: walking around the city of New York today and yesterday,

976
00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:08,480
Speaker 1: it's unbelievable how hard their job is. Anyway, Dan Bongino,

977
00:53:08,560 --> 00:53:11,040
Speaker 1: congratulations on the book. Welcome back to the program. Let's

978
00:53:11,080 --> 00:53:14,600
Speaker 1: get your reaction first on how wrong the media has

979
00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:17,320
Speaker 1: been on such an important issue. And I've yet to

980
00:53:17,480 --> 00:53:21,720
Speaker 1: hear the words we apologize, we were tracked, we were wrong.

981
00:53:21,920 --> 00:53:25,600
Speaker 1: Where's fake Jake Tapper and fake news? Where's Humpty Dumpty

982
00:53:25,680 --> 00:53:29,000
Speaker 1: over there? Yeah, Stelter, let a clown, you know, Sean,

983
00:53:29,560 --> 00:53:32,080
Speaker 1: this would be laughable if if it wasn't such a

984
00:53:32,200 --> 00:53:34,840
Speaker 1: serious situation. And I'm glad you opened up on a

985
00:53:34,920 --> 00:53:38,120
Speaker 1: somber note because you're right. I mean, this is absolutely

986
00:53:38,239 --> 00:53:40,799
Speaker 1: the end of the republic as we know it if

987
00:53:40,880 --> 00:53:45,560
Speaker 1: we are allowing political appointees to spy on their political opposition,

988
00:53:45,719 --> 00:53:48,279
Speaker 1: still shown by the way, with no legitimate reason put

989
00:53:48,320 --> 00:53:51,040
Speaker 1: out there for the public to consume, and nobody seems

990
00:53:51,040 --> 00:53:52,480
Speaker 1: to think this is a big deal. Let me ask

991
00:53:52,520 --> 00:53:55,520
Speaker 1: your audience, how is this not the biggest political scandal

992
00:53:55,800 --> 00:53:58,480
Speaker 1: in the modern year of politics. Please explain to me,

993
00:53:58,520 --> 00:54:01,880
Speaker 1: as a rational person, how a sitting president United States

994
00:54:02,200 --> 00:54:05,040
Speaker 1: had a political appointee Sean Susan Rice, she was not

995
00:54:05,120 --> 00:54:09,480
Speaker 1: an investigator. Don't let her national Security advisor title fool anyone.

996
00:54:09,960 --> 00:54:12,320
Speaker 1: And Andy McCarthy's pointed this out at National Review. She

997
00:54:12,440 --> 00:54:15,040
Speaker 1: was not an investigator, she was a political appointee. And

998
00:54:15,160 --> 00:54:18,440
Speaker 1: Susan Powers, how are they listening in or demanding the

999
00:54:18,560 --> 00:54:23,200
Speaker 1: unmasking of Trump identity Trump campaign official identities? Listening in

1000
00:54:23,320 --> 00:54:26,560
Speaker 1: on phone calls? It's been exposed, by the way, by you,

1001
00:54:26,840 --> 00:54:29,759
Speaker 1: by Mark Vinn, by Sarah Carter, and nobody thinks this

1002
00:54:29,920 --> 00:54:32,080
Speaker 1: is a big deal. They're grafting this off. Sean, this

1003
00:54:32,320 --> 00:54:35,439
Speaker 1: is I mean, you're I I share your your fear

1004
00:54:35,520 --> 00:54:37,960
Speaker 1: with this story that if this doesn't become a bigger

1005
00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:40,480
Speaker 1: deal than this, forget your politics for a minute. We're finished.

1006
00:54:40,480 --> 00:54:42,759
Speaker 1: If we just accept this as a people, this is

1007
00:54:43,160 --> 00:54:46,440
Speaker 1: a Fourth Amendment issue, This is a constitutional issue. And

1008
00:54:46,719 --> 00:54:50,720
Speaker 1: if they can, if they can do this to any

1009
00:54:50,800 --> 00:54:55,880
Speaker 1: one American, especially an opposition presidential candidate in a campaign season,

1010
00:54:56,080 --> 00:54:58,600
Speaker 1: and get away with it, then there's no telling where

1011
00:54:58,960 --> 00:55:04,279
Speaker 1: this surveill, unmasking and Espionage Act violations end. I mean,

1012
00:55:04,360 --> 00:55:06,440
Speaker 1: it basically means they can take down on any president

1013
00:55:06,520 --> 00:55:09,200
Speaker 1: they want at any time, right absolutely, and as a

1014
00:55:09,320 --> 00:55:13,360
Speaker 1: former federal investigator and local police officer with the NYPD

1015
00:55:13,480 --> 00:55:17,960
Speaker 1: and understanding them the unbelievable monopolistic power of the government

1016
00:55:18,000 --> 00:55:19,800
Speaker 1: when it comes to use of force and the ability

1017
00:55:19,840 --> 00:55:22,640
Speaker 1: to take freedom. The problem we have here summed up

1018
00:55:22,680 --> 00:55:24,880
Speaker 1: in a big to make it easy for the liberals

1019
00:55:24,920 --> 00:55:26,920
Speaker 1: to understand if they would just you know, take the

1020
00:55:26,960 --> 00:55:28,439
Speaker 1: cotton out of their ears for a minute and stick

1021
00:55:28,440 --> 00:55:31,560
Speaker 1: it in their mouths is once you start targeting people

1022
00:55:31,880 --> 00:55:34,680
Speaker 1: using the power, the force, power that only the government

1023
00:55:34,760 --> 00:55:37,880
Speaker 1: has and not crime. Sean, targeting people were in a

1024
00:55:38,040 --> 00:55:40,400
Speaker 1: dangerous new ear of a police state. And what I

1025
00:55:40,440 --> 00:55:42,120
Speaker 1: mean by that is very clear. When I was a

1026
00:55:42,480 --> 00:55:45,439
Speaker 1: Secret Service agent, right we were investigating, say, counterfeit crimes, whatever,

1027
00:55:45,520 --> 00:55:47,719
Speaker 1: computer crimes. You don't walk in the office one day.

1028
00:55:47,920 --> 00:55:50,120
Speaker 1: You know what. That bouncer in that bar last week

1029
00:55:50,160 --> 00:55:52,279
Speaker 1: looked at me, kind of funny. Let's go find something

1030
00:55:52,360 --> 00:55:54,120
Speaker 1: on that guy, because you know what, Sean, I guarantee

1031
00:55:54,120 --> 00:55:56,800
Speaker 1: you will. You'll find something on everyone. I promise you.

1032
00:55:56,880 --> 00:55:59,239
Speaker 1: You ripped the tag off a mattress once, we could

1033
00:55:59,360 --> 00:56:02,360
Speaker 1: nail you on that if we wanted to. There have

1034
00:56:02,480 --> 00:56:04,320
Speaker 1: been questions that have been brought to me that I

1035
00:56:04,440 --> 00:56:07,279
Speaker 1: might have been surveiled and un masked. If that's true,

1036
00:56:07,440 --> 00:56:09,960
Speaker 1: I will bring legal action. It's the only it's the

1037
00:56:10,080 --> 00:56:12,479
Speaker 1: only way to stop this. And you have to sue

1038
00:56:12,520 --> 00:56:15,279
Speaker 1: people personally. You have to hurt them in the pocket book,

1039
00:56:15,280 --> 00:56:19,040
Speaker 1: because this will never stop personally. Listen, they make it

1040
00:56:19,120 --> 00:56:21,239
Speaker 1: hard and next to impossible to sue the government. But

1041
00:56:21,280 --> 00:56:23,279
Speaker 1: they better have a good reason to be surveiling me.

1042
00:56:23,560 --> 00:56:27,160
Speaker 1: And also I have protections as a quote journalist in

1043
00:56:27,200 --> 00:56:31,080
Speaker 1: the journalistic field, and uh I will absolutely use every

1044
00:56:31,120 --> 00:56:33,799
Speaker 1: one of them. Absolutely, Sean, I mean, this is really

1045
00:56:33,920 --> 00:56:36,839
Speaker 1: serious stuff. I mean, if someone went in there and said, hey,

1046
00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:39,480
Speaker 1: I mean I remember people get excited about these kinds

1047
00:56:39,520 --> 00:56:42,359
Speaker 1: of things in law enforcement and even in the intelligence serrena, hey,

1048
00:56:42,480 --> 00:56:44,480
Speaker 1: look we you know we got Hannity on a call

1049
00:56:44,600 --> 00:56:46,520
Speaker 1: to I mean, your name carries cash. I mean, I

1050
00:56:46,640 --> 00:56:49,239
Speaker 1: remember criminal cases in the federal government brought to me

1051
00:56:49,360 --> 00:56:51,720
Speaker 1: that frankly, we're kind of crappy. They were real crimes,

1052
00:56:51,920 --> 00:56:53,839
Speaker 1: but they had a known figure in it. I mean

1053
00:56:53,960 --> 00:56:56,600
Speaker 1: I remember one specifically, and they wanted to run with

1054
00:56:56,680 --> 00:56:58,520
Speaker 1: the case just because they thought they'd get on TV

1055
00:56:58,719 --> 00:57:01,080
Speaker 1: for a couple of the people involved. I so listen,

1056
00:57:01,120 --> 00:57:03,480
Speaker 1: to the garbage case. But we don't target people in

1057
00:57:03,560 --> 00:57:06,840
Speaker 1: the United States. We target criminality and we find the

1058
00:57:06,960 --> 00:57:09,880
Speaker 1: people who committed the crime later. We we don't do

1059
00:57:10,000 --> 00:57:12,840
Speaker 1: it in reverse. And this is a really really dangerous

1060
00:57:12,880 --> 00:57:15,279
Speaker 1: standard that's being said. And if somebody isn't do something

1061
00:57:15,320 --> 00:57:17,640
Speaker 1: to correct it, I mean, I don't see any way back.

1062
00:57:17,760 --> 00:57:19,439
Speaker 1: I mean, And I know, Sean, I know you feel

1063
00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:20,920
Speaker 1: the same way as I do. If this was the

1064
00:57:20,960 --> 00:57:25,320
Speaker 1: Trump administration doing this on the nominee, you would absolutely

1065
00:57:25,440 --> 00:57:27,520
Speaker 1: feel the same way. Like well, the difference would be

1066
00:57:27,600 --> 00:57:30,080
Speaker 1: people would be investigating properly and they go to jail.

1067
00:57:30,320 --> 00:57:33,680
Speaker 1: You know, just like everything involving Hillary Clinton, nobody understands

1068
00:57:33,960 --> 00:57:37,040
Speaker 1: why it's important to follow through and the crime she committed,

1069
00:57:37,080 --> 00:57:39,800
Speaker 1: the real reason of importance is otherwise we don't have

1070
00:57:39,880 --> 00:57:42,720
Speaker 1: equal justice under the law. We have a dual justice system,

1071
00:57:42,920 --> 00:57:45,880
Speaker 1: and our justice system has been politicized. And once that happens,

1072
00:57:46,040 --> 00:57:48,280
Speaker 1: and that basically means they go after only the people

1073
00:57:48,320 --> 00:57:50,160
Speaker 1: that they want to go after, and the laws are

1074
00:57:50,200 --> 00:57:53,280
Speaker 1: meaningless and people can commit all sorts of crimes and

1075
00:57:53,360 --> 00:57:55,240
Speaker 1: get away with it. And Sean, you know what, really

1076
00:57:55,320 --> 00:57:58,680
Speaker 1: the saddest part of this whole sad, disgusting legacy of

1077
00:57:58,760 --> 00:58:00,920
Speaker 1: the wire tapping in the Savannas and the unmasking is

1078
00:58:01,080 --> 00:58:04,400
Speaker 1: you know, you and Levin and Carter, we're using reports

1079
00:58:04,640 --> 00:58:08,360
Speaker 1: that the mainstream media put out themselves. Remember the January

1080
00:58:08,440 --> 00:58:10,800
Speaker 1: New York Times article where they set up quoting one

1081
00:58:10,840 --> 00:58:13,760
Speaker 1: official set intelligence reports based on some of the wire

1082
00:58:13,800 --> 00:58:17,000
Speaker 1: tap communications had been provided of the White House. That's

1083
00:58:17,040 --> 00:58:19,479
Speaker 1: the New York time zone reporting. He said, Hey, guys,

1084
00:58:19,640 --> 00:58:21,840
Speaker 1: you reported on this wire tap and you're now saying

1085
00:58:21,920 --> 00:58:24,920
Speaker 1: isn't happening. It's like these media people cannot get their

1086
00:58:24,960 --> 00:58:27,480
Speaker 1: heads out of their collective comple How many times I

1087
00:58:27,600 --> 00:58:31,680
Speaker 1: have falsely been called a conspiracy theorist over this and

1088
00:58:31,880 --> 00:58:34,840
Speaker 1: other issues when I know I have them dead to

1089
00:58:35,040 --> 00:58:38,000
Speaker 1: rights wrong and you just have to sit and wait

1090
00:58:38,120 --> 00:58:40,640
Speaker 1: for it totally to evolve and come out. And how

1091
00:58:40,720 --> 00:58:42,840
Speaker 1: ahead of the curve we've been on this, and how

1092
00:58:43,000 --> 00:58:46,200
Speaker 1: lazy these people are with zero desire to actually get

1093
00:58:46,280 --> 00:58:48,560
Speaker 1: to the truth, and how we know for a fact

1094
00:58:48,640 --> 00:58:51,440
Speaker 1: that they know they're reporting false information. And you'll get

1095
00:58:51,760 --> 00:58:54,480
Speaker 1: I'm you know what, I'll maybe I hope I stand corrected,

1096
00:58:54,520 --> 00:58:56,800
Speaker 1: but I doubt you'll get any kind of apology. I

1097
00:58:56,840 --> 00:59:00,680
Speaker 1: mean that Stelter guy at CNN was all for you guys.

1098
00:59:01,040 --> 00:59:02,960
Speaker 1: I mean he was on top of le Vin. Oh,

1099
00:59:03,120 --> 00:59:05,000
Speaker 1: you guys are a bunch of conspiracy theories. You don't

1100
00:59:05,000 --> 00:59:06,600
Speaker 1: know what you're talking about. I mean I saw the

1101
00:59:06,640 --> 00:59:09,520
Speaker 1: tweets coming from him and CNN people, you know, spark

1102
00:59:09,560 --> 00:59:12,640
Speaker 1: in the flames. This is right wing radio. Right wing

1103
00:59:12,800 --> 00:59:15,520
Speaker 1: radio as if if you're a conservative, anything you say

1104
00:59:15,680 --> 00:59:19,520
Speaker 1: is to be discredited immediately, despite using the left wing

1105
00:59:19,680 --> 00:59:22,760
Speaker 1: media's own reporting against them. You really can't win in

1106
00:59:22,800 --> 00:59:25,880
Speaker 1: this business. It's sad. Really, listen, you really can't continue

1107
00:59:25,880 --> 00:59:28,439
Speaker 1: with dam Bongino. He's got a brand new book out today,

1108
00:59:28,520 --> 00:59:32,640

Speaker 1: in the era of evolving threats, and it is getting

1110
00:59:35,480 --> 00:59:38,240
Speaker 1: more dangerous every day. Hey, listen, I don't sleep well,

1111
00:59:38,280 --> 00:59:40,040
Speaker 1: but I sleep better than ever. And like many of you,

1132
01:00:41,600 --> 01:00:43,560
Speaker 1: the hour, as we'll be checking in with Sarah Carter

1133
01:00:43,680 --> 01:00:46,760
Speaker 1: and Luke Rosiac on the very issue. Sarah Carter reported

1134
01:00:46,840 --> 01:00:49,800
Speaker 1: back in March of this year, and that the medium

1135
01:00:49,880 --> 01:00:53,520
Speaker 1: mocked and ridiculed and called a conspiracy theory. Straight ahead,

1136
01:00:58,360 --> 01:01:00,440
Speaker 1: the final hour of the shot on the hand of

1137
01:01:00,520 --> 01:01:04,080
Speaker 1: the show is up next. Hang on for Shawn's conservative

1138
01:01:04,280 --> 01:01:11,080
Speaker 1: solutions right as we continue with Dan Bongino. He also

1139
01:01:11,120 --> 01:01:13,280
Speaker 1: wrote those brand new book It's out Today, Protecting the

1140
01:01:13,360 --> 01:01:17,200
Speaker 1: President and inside account of the troubled Secret Service in

1141
01:01:17,360 --> 01:01:19,680
Speaker 1: an era of evolving threats. Well, I can't think of

1142
01:01:19,720 --> 01:01:22,400
Speaker 1: a more dangerous time to be protecting the president of

1143
01:01:22,440 --> 01:01:25,160
Speaker 1: the United States. As divided as this country is, the

1144
01:01:25,280 --> 01:01:27,120
Speaker 1: threat levels through the roof. And then you have the

1145
01:01:27,240 --> 01:01:30,440
Speaker 1: media refusing to call out a lot of people at all,

1146
01:01:30,520 --> 01:01:32,280
Speaker 1: but a lot of people in the media refusing to

1147
01:01:32,360 --> 01:01:35,320
Speaker 1: call out Antifa and these far left groups which sanctioned

1148
01:01:35,400 --> 01:01:38,320
Speaker 1: violence as a legitimate means a political protest, which of

1149
01:01:38,400 --> 01:01:42,640
Speaker 1: course is absolutely absurd. Violence is violence, it's not political protest.

1150
01:01:43,040 --> 01:01:45,320
Speaker 1: So it is a dangerous time. And you know, I've

1151
01:01:45,360 --> 01:01:47,120
Speaker 1: been holding onto this book in my head for a

1152
01:01:47,240 --> 01:01:50,160
Speaker 1: really long time, but it was really that second fence

1153
01:01:50,240 --> 01:01:53,200
Speaker 1: jumping incident where I said, you know, something's got to

1154
01:01:53,280 --> 01:01:55,760
Speaker 1: change over there, because I know, actually, first I tell

1155
01:01:55,760 --> 01:01:57,280
Speaker 1: the story every time on the everyday the first time

1156
01:01:57,280 --> 01:01:58,720
Speaker 1: I met you was when I was a Secret Service

1157
01:01:58,720 --> 01:02:00,760
Speaker 1: saying whore at the White House visiting the President Bush.

1158
01:02:01,000 --> 01:02:02,400
Speaker 1: I know, you know a lot of men and women

1159
01:02:02,440 --> 01:02:04,640
Speaker 1: over there, they're the best, they do a terrific job.

1160
01:02:04,840 --> 01:02:09,120
Speaker 1: It's not them. It's really horrible politicians and atrocious managers

1161
01:02:09,440 --> 01:02:11,520
Speaker 1: that are ruining the place. And it's really sad and

1162
01:02:11,720 --> 01:02:14,440
Speaker 1: something's got to stop. The regardless of your political affiliation,

1163
01:02:14,480 --> 01:02:15,960
Speaker 1: that president United States needs to be able to do

1164
01:02:16,040 --> 01:02:18,880
Speaker 1: his job safe and secure, and it's fallen apart over there. Yeah. Look,

1165
01:02:19,200 --> 01:02:21,960
Speaker 1: for me, it was simple. I mean during the Obama

1166
01:02:22,080 --> 01:02:25,360
Speaker 1: years when when threats happened, remember the guy that actually

1167
01:02:25,520 --> 01:02:28,360
Speaker 1: ran in the front door and literally had access to

1168
01:02:28,480 --> 01:02:32,680
Speaker 1: go upstairs to the residents. Remember that into several rooms. Okay, yeah,

1169
01:02:32,760 --> 01:02:34,560
Speaker 1: I said at the time, and I said it many times,

1170
01:02:34,560 --> 01:02:36,800
Speaker 1: We've got to protect our presidents. We got to protect

1171
01:02:36,840 --> 01:02:39,400
Speaker 1: our politicians because an attack on them as an attack

1172
01:02:39,480 --> 01:02:41,600
Speaker 1: on the country. And you know, and then we got

1173
01:02:41,640 --> 01:02:45,520
Speaker 1: all these these these actors and you know, insane people

1174
01:02:45,560 --> 01:02:48,360
Speaker 1: on the left. We got severed heads. When's the last

1175
01:02:48,480 --> 01:02:52,400
Speaker 1: time a an actor killed a president? Johnny Depp is asking,

1176
01:02:52,520 --> 01:02:54,440
Speaker 1: or or Robert de Niro wanted to punch him in

1177
01:02:54,480 --> 01:02:56,800
Speaker 1: the face, or MacDonald wishing to blow up the White House.

1178
01:02:57,040 --> 01:03:00,200
Speaker 1: I mean, if I did that in the Obama era,

1179
01:03:00,320 --> 01:03:03,520
Speaker 1: would have been arrested. Yeah, And Kathy Griffin with the disgusting,

1180
01:03:03,920 --> 01:03:08,400
Speaker 1: fake decapitated trumpet. I mean, this is the kind of stuff, thankfully,

1181
01:03:08,560 --> 01:03:10,360
Speaker 1: and I mean this that if it were to happen

1182
01:03:10,440 --> 01:03:13,360
Speaker 1: under Obama, Conservatives would be the first one going, hey,

1183
01:03:13,600 --> 01:03:16,720
Speaker 1: gent's ladies, we draw the line at this crap that

1184
01:03:16,840 --> 01:03:18,920
Speaker 1: this doesn't We're not. There's a red a real red

1185
01:03:19,000 --> 01:03:21,560
Speaker 1: line here. We don't do that. Okay, But again, liberals

1186
01:03:21,600 --> 01:03:24,040
Speaker 1: and not all of them, but where was the massive

1187
01:03:24,200 --> 01:03:26,800
Speaker 1: outcry against this kind of stuff. You know, if the

1188
01:03:26,920 --> 01:03:30,160
Speaker 1: management and the politicians don't leave the agents alone and

1189
01:03:30,280 --> 01:03:31,880
Speaker 1: let them do their job. Means some of the stuff

1190
01:03:31,880 --> 01:03:33,440
Speaker 1: I talked about in the book I'm very hesitant to

1191
01:03:33,480 --> 01:03:34,960
Speaker 1: talk about because I don't want it to seem like

1192
01:03:35,040 --> 01:03:38,080
Speaker 1: a bash fest. It's not. But they have this commitment

1193
01:03:38,240 --> 01:03:40,880
Speaker 1: over there, the management, because of political pressure to this

1194
01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:42,960
Speaker 1: you know, diversity thing show, which, as you know, with

1195
01:03:43,040 --> 01:03:45,800
Speaker 1: the left, never really means diversity. It just means whatever

1196
01:03:45,880 --> 01:03:47,840
Speaker 1: they think it means for the day. And they're putting

1197
01:03:47,920 --> 01:03:51,240
Speaker 1: people literally in front of the president, President Trump right now,

1198
01:03:51,440 --> 01:03:54,200
Speaker 1: just protect his life while I'm telling you are not qualified.

1199
01:03:54,280 --> 01:03:56,920
Speaker 1: They were pushing people through in some in some respects,

1200
01:03:57,000 --> 01:04:00,400
Speaker 1: people are not qualified to do the job. And you

1201
01:04:00,520 --> 01:04:03,000
Speaker 1: gott in that position. You can't be you can't be

1202
01:04:03,120 --> 01:04:05,480
Speaker 1: hiring people that don't have the capacity to lead and

1203
01:04:05,600 --> 01:04:07,240
Speaker 1: do that job and do it to the best of

1204
01:04:07,280 --> 01:04:10,280
Speaker 1: their ability. It's a dangerous job, it's a necessary job.

1205
01:04:10,600 --> 01:04:12,920
Speaker 1: And uh, I want to see those guys succeed, and

1206
01:04:12,960 --> 01:04:17,240
Speaker 1: I want to protect our politicians. This transcends all politics,

1207
01:04:17,320 --> 01:04:19,720
Speaker 1: or at least it should. All Right, Dan Bongino, congrats

1213
01:04:34,240 --> 01:04:37,200

1214
01:04:37,240 --> 01:04:39,960
Speaker 1: big stories that we are following today has to deal

1215
01:04:40,080 --> 01:04:43,280
Speaker 1: with former campaign manager for Donald Trump, and that is

1216
01:04:43,440 --> 01:04:47,960
Speaker 1: Paul Manafort. Even CNN is now finally given in and

1217
01:04:48,280 --> 01:04:51,120
Speaker 1: or admitting the truth, even though people were mocked and

1218
01:04:51,320 --> 01:04:53,960
Speaker 1: laughed at, and it was ridiculed and pushed aside at

1219
01:04:54,000 --> 01:04:57,400
Speaker 1: the time. And that is that investigators had wire tapped

1220
01:04:57,560 --> 01:05:01,880
Speaker 1: the former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort under secret court

1221
01:05:02,080 --> 01:05:05,800
Speaker 1: orders before and after the election. Sources telling CNN and

1222
01:05:05,880 --> 01:05:09,480
Speaker 1: now other news sources picking it up. An extraordinary step

1223
01:05:09,640 --> 01:05:12,600
Speaker 1: of a high ranking campaign official, which is now in

1224
01:05:12,680 --> 01:05:15,920
Speaker 1: the center of all this. Very early on, we can

1225
01:05:16,000 --> 01:05:19,480
Speaker 1: go back in this program and back on the television program,

1226
01:05:20,120 --> 01:05:23,160
Speaker 1: and it was Sarah Carter and it was John Solomon,

1227
01:05:23,440 --> 01:05:25,560
Speaker 1: and they pointed out they were the first to talk

1228
01:05:25,600 --> 01:05:30,120
Speaker 1: about surveillance warrants being issued in Trump Tower against Trump

1229
01:05:30,240 --> 01:05:33,120
Speaker 1: and against Trump associates. Everybody in the media at the

1230
01:05:33,200 --> 01:05:36,480
Speaker 1: time dismissed it as a conspiracy theory. It never was,

1231
01:05:37,000 --> 01:05:40,960
Speaker 1: was always true. Now vindication has come. Let's play this

1232
01:05:41,120 --> 01:05:46,040
Speaker 1: goes back to March eight of seventeen. Let's play it now.

1233
01:05:46,160 --> 01:05:48,640
Speaker 1: In this piece, tell me if I'm reading it properly,

1234
01:05:48,720 --> 01:05:52,880
Speaker 1: you both confirmed that a surveillance warrant was issued for

1235
01:05:52,960 --> 01:05:57,280
Speaker 1: the main server at Trump Towers. That true. I'm not

1236
01:05:57,320 --> 01:05:58,920
Speaker 1: sure it was the main service san but it was

1237
01:05:59,000 --> 01:06:01,240
Speaker 1: a server that had to do with email marketing, and

1238
01:06:01,400 --> 01:06:03,320
Speaker 1: the FBI wanted to take a look at it because

1239
01:06:03,360 --> 01:06:05,640
Speaker 1: it was appearing to have some sort of communication with

1240
01:06:05,720 --> 01:06:07,760
Speaker 1: a Russian entity. Well, I know as a matter of

1241
01:06:07,960 --> 01:06:11,480
Speaker 1: fact that everybody in the campaign, with maybe one or

1242
01:06:11,520 --> 01:06:14,600
Speaker 1: two exceptions that I know, all got on the Trump

1243
01:06:14,760 --> 01:06:18,200
Speaker 1: email in other words, that the Trump organization email server.

1244
01:06:18,800 --> 01:06:21,960
Speaker 1: So there is a possibility that everything involving the campaign

1245
01:06:22,560 --> 01:06:26,480
Speaker 1: was possibly surveiled once that FISA warrant was issued. Is

1246
01:06:26,520 --> 01:06:29,440
Speaker 1: that possible? It's possible, though our understanding is that this

1247
01:06:29,600 --> 01:06:32,840
Speaker 1: this server was actually narrowly construed to do email marketing.

1248
01:06:32,920 --> 01:06:36,480
Speaker 1: It predated the campaign and wasn't specifically a server that

1249
01:06:36,640 --> 01:06:39,320
Speaker 1: was used for campaign email. That's that's our understanding. Joining

1250
01:06:39,400 --> 01:06:42,200
Speaker 1: us now, Luke Rosiac with The Daily Caller and Sarah

1251
01:06:42,320 --> 01:06:46,200
Speaker 1: Carter responding. Sarah, we talked at length about what two

1252
01:06:46,320 --> 01:06:50,400
Speaker 1: specific FISA warrants that you had discovered, and also you

1253
01:06:50,480 --> 01:06:53,240
Speaker 1: had believed at the time that there was a criminal

1254
01:06:53,320 --> 01:06:56,240
Speaker 1: warrant issued, and it was pretty it was pretty broad,

1255
01:06:56,440 --> 01:06:58,560
Speaker 1: and it was on the Trump servers, which were at

1256
01:06:58,560 --> 01:07:01,960
Speaker 1: a different location other than Trump Power, but it was

1257
01:07:02,120 --> 01:07:05,200
Speaker 1: for Trump Power, correct, Yeah, correct, And I mean we

1258
01:07:05,320 --> 01:07:08,400
Speaker 1: saw that one of those Foreign Intelligent Surveillance Actor lawrence

1259
01:07:08,560 --> 01:07:11,840
Speaker 1: was issued in October of that year, and uh, they

1260
01:07:11,880 --> 01:07:14,720
Speaker 1: were stressing that it was to help further along the

1261
01:07:14,800 --> 01:07:17,600
Speaker 1: Russia investigation. But remember, there was a lot of concern

1262
01:07:17,720 --> 01:07:20,560
Speaker 1: then even from the President, from other people that were

1263
01:07:20,600 --> 01:07:23,880
Speaker 1: aware of what was going on in the periphery, that

1264
01:07:24,040 --> 01:07:27,880
Speaker 1: maybe this wasn't all it and that there was a

1265
01:07:28,240 --> 01:07:34,280
Speaker 1: very high likelihood that President Trump's phone conversations were intercepted,

1266
01:07:34,480 --> 01:07:37,400
Speaker 1: wire tapped by these investigations, and that's kind of why

1267
01:07:37,640 --> 01:07:39,960
Speaker 1: he put out those tweets. And I think when you

1268
01:07:40,040 --> 01:07:42,480
Speaker 1: look at the process of this, and I was talking

1269
01:07:42,600 --> 01:07:46,320
Speaker 1: to uh federal law enforcement official, uh and I will

1270
01:07:46,640 --> 01:07:49,160
Speaker 1: say who right now, But about this, they call it

1271
01:07:49,360 --> 01:07:52,240
Speaker 1: like the back door wire taps to right. So you've

1272
01:07:52,280 --> 01:07:56,080
Speaker 1: got Paul Manafort, he's making phone calls. You've got uh,

1273
01:07:56,280 --> 01:07:58,880
Speaker 1: you know what CNN broke, which is that he was

1274
01:07:59,080 --> 01:08:02,560
Speaker 1: wire tapped, but you haven't making phone calls to you know,

1275
01:08:02,800 --> 01:08:06,919
Speaker 1: President elect Trump or to then you know, President Trump

1276
01:08:07,000 --> 01:08:10,360
Speaker 1: right before the election, and all of those phone conversations, right,

1277
01:08:10,800 --> 01:08:13,520
Speaker 1: we don't know for certain yet, but those phone conversations,

1278
01:08:13,560 --> 01:08:16,320
Speaker 1: if they were within that time period, they were being

1279
01:08:16,439 --> 01:08:19,080
Speaker 1: listened to. It wasn't like they cut out Trump and

1280
01:08:19,240 --> 01:08:21,920
Speaker 1: just listened to Paul Maniport. They would have listened to

1281
01:08:22,000 --> 01:08:24,479
Speaker 1: everybody that Paul Manafort was speaking with, and that would

1282
01:08:24,520 --> 01:08:27,160
Speaker 1: have been part of their building the case. And in fact,

1283
01:08:27,200 --> 01:08:29,760
Speaker 1: they had none, because even in the CNN story they

1284
01:08:29,800 --> 01:08:32,760
Speaker 1: said there was really no they gathered no evidence from this,

1285
01:08:33,320 --> 01:08:35,840
Speaker 1: no real evidence that could that can move a case

1286
01:08:35,960 --> 01:08:39,040
Speaker 1: forward that we know of yet. So I think really

1287
01:08:39,120 --> 01:08:41,720
Speaker 1: in the end there was indication here. I mean there was,

1288
01:08:42,920 --> 01:08:45,960
Speaker 1: but it seems like they're trying to squeeze Maniport and

1289
01:08:46,000 --> 01:08:49,160
Speaker 1: get Manafort to flip at this point. That's my interpretation

1290
01:08:49,240 --> 01:08:52,240
Speaker 1: of things. And they're putting out all the public pressure

1291
01:08:52,280 --> 01:08:56,600
Speaker 1: and by by leaking the story that there was surveillance

1292
01:08:56,680 --> 01:08:58,720
Speaker 1: going on, that's making him in the back of his

1293
01:08:58,840 --> 01:09:01,120
Speaker 1: mind saying, okay that I say anything way back in

1294
01:09:01,200 --> 01:09:04,040
Speaker 1: the day that could have implicated me in any crime,

1295
01:09:04,360 --> 01:09:06,920
Speaker 1: and if he thinks that maybe something that they may find,

1296
01:09:07,000 --> 01:09:09,680
Speaker 1: and he's thinking, okay, I'll give him what they want.

1297
01:09:09,760 --> 01:09:11,200
Speaker 1: They'll give me a deal and I'll stay out of

1298
01:09:11,280 --> 01:09:12,880
Speaker 1: jail and I won't get in trouble. But I can

1299
01:09:12,960 --> 01:09:16,720
Speaker 1: flip somebody and That's the way prosecutions work, doesn't it.

1300
01:09:17,200 --> 01:09:20,040
Speaker 1: Absolutely absolutely, And I've I've said this, you know, Sean,

1301
01:09:20,120 --> 01:09:21,639
Speaker 1: you and I have talked about this in the past.

1302
01:09:21,760 --> 01:09:24,880
Speaker 1: I truly believe that that's that's what's happening here. That's

1303
01:09:24,920 --> 01:09:27,599
Speaker 1: the modus operandi. It's put all the pressure on Paul

1304
01:09:27,640 --> 01:09:30,240
Speaker 1: Manafort try to get what they can get out of him.

1305
01:09:30,640 --> 01:09:33,880
Speaker 1: We don't know what Paul Manafort knows and what he

1306
01:09:33,960 --> 01:09:37,879
Speaker 1: has already said to FBI officials. I think that's probably

1307
01:09:38,120 --> 01:09:41,320
Speaker 1: he's very concerned right now. He's probably wondering out who

1308
01:09:41,360 --> 01:09:43,120
Speaker 1: did they what did they listen to? Who was I

1309
01:09:43,240 --> 01:09:47,400
Speaker 1: talking to? And I'm sure there is intense pressure to

1310
01:09:47,560 --> 01:09:51,639
Speaker 1: get him to divulge or to talk about situations within

1311
01:09:51,760 --> 01:09:56,839
Speaker 1: the campaign or or even within uh President Trump's past businesses.

1312
01:09:57,200 --> 01:10:00,240
Speaker 1: So it'll be very interesting to see why and what

1313
01:10:00,439 --> 01:10:03,600
Speaker 1: Manifort says, what Manafort has, what kind of if they

1314
01:10:03,640 --> 01:10:05,080
Speaker 1: are going to kind of deal, what kind of deal

1315
01:10:05,160 --> 01:10:07,840
Speaker 1: would that beach and if there is anything there and

1316
01:10:08,040 --> 01:10:11,200
Speaker 1: so far, you know, according to the officials that I've

1317
01:10:11,240 --> 01:10:13,639
Speaker 1: spoken with, I mean, look, Paul Manaford has his own

1318
01:10:13,760 --> 01:10:16,360
Speaker 1: cross to beer, He's he has his own past in

1319
01:10:16,439 --> 01:10:18,800
Speaker 1: his own history. But according to the people that I've

1320
01:10:18,840 --> 01:10:22,240
Speaker 1: spoken with, they're not seeing anything on Trump side. But

1321
01:10:22,400 --> 01:10:24,160
Speaker 1: if you go back to the reporting at the time,

1322
01:10:24,600 --> 01:10:27,680
Speaker 1: be at CNN or even a front page headline in

1323
01:10:27,760 --> 01:10:31,400
Speaker 1: the New York Times on Inauguration Day, that Trump aids

1324
01:10:31,439 --> 01:10:34,720
Speaker 1: had been wire tap, it was all dismissed as a

1325
01:10:34,840 --> 01:10:39,000
Speaker 1: conspiracy theory, in other words, a conspiratory or rant by

1326
01:10:39,080 --> 01:10:43,439
Speaker 1: conservatives including me and Levine and Breitbart and everybody else,

1327
01:10:43,840 --> 01:10:46,679
Speaker 1: and the l A Times called the wire tapping story

1328
01:10:46,720 --> 01:10:50,000
Speaker 1: of phony conspiracy theory. Now I'm arguing that this is

1329
01:10:50,080 --> 01:10:51,920
Speaker 1: only the tip of the iceberg. A lot of the

1330
01:10:52,000 --> 01:10:55,080
Speaker 1: reporting on on Russia, a lot of the reporting that

1331
01:10:55,520 --> 01:10:58,240
Speaker 1: you have done, and John Solomon and Luke Rosey Ecko

1332
01:10:58,280 --> 01:11:00,360
Speaker 1: we're gonna get to in a second, has and then

1333
01:11:00,439 --> 01:11:03,400
Speaker 1: on accurate. The media is ignored it for political and

1334
01:11:03,479 --> 01:11:07,000
Speaker 1: ideological purposes, And all of these things are now beginning

1335
01:11:07,080 --> 01:11:09,519
Speaker 1: to be proven true, and their whole house of cards

1336
01:11:09,600 --> 01:11:13,439
Speaker 1: Russia conspiracy also seems to be falling apart. Is that accurate?

1337
01:11:13,960 --> 01:11:15,960
Speaker 1: I think that's very accurate. And I think if you

1338
01:11:16,040 --> 01:11:19,240
Speaker 1: look at just a faction that the dossier, right, what

1339
01:11:19,360 --> 01:11:21,960
Speaker 1: did they what? And this is something Senator Grassley has

1340
01:11:22,000 --> 01:11:25,080
Speaker 1: been asking. Let's let's go back. What did the FBI

1341
01:11:25,360 --> 01:11:30,320
Speaker 1: rely on to conduct these investigations? Did they rely on

1342
01:11:30,520 --> 01:11:34,439
Speaker 1: this unsubstantiated dossier? Were the only stuff in that dossier

1343
01:11:34,560 --> 01:11:37,880
Speaker 1: that anybody's ever been able to prove even remotely comes

1344
01:11:37,920 --> 01:11:40,400
Speaker 1: to the truth as a meeting here or there. Everything

1345
01:11:40,479 --> 01:11:43,360
Speaker 1: else is unsubstantiated. It's dealacious, they say, a lot of

1346
01:11:43,400 --> 01:11:46,160
Speaker 1: its fault to What people want to know is how

1347
01:11:46,240 --> 01:11:50,120
Speaker 1: did this investigation start? Did they rely on this delacious dossier?

1348
01:11:50,520 --> 01:11:53,240
Speaker 1: And if so, I mean, that's a very telling sign

1349
01:11:53,520 --> 01:11:56,400
Speaker 1: of some very serious problems within our government. And then

1350
01:11:56,560 --> 01:11:58,240
Speaker 1: go to the stories that John and I have been

1351
01:11:58,280 --> 01:12:01,800
Speaker 1: breaking over the last year. It's regard to the foreign

1352
01:12:01,840 --> 01:12:06,040
Speaker 1: intelligence surveillance courts, you know, backlashing at the FBI and

1353
01:12:06,160 --> 01:12:09,000
Speaker 1: at the n s A for these expanded powers and

1354
01:12:09,160 --> 01:12:12,800
Speaker 1: for unwarranted surveillance. I mean, this is not stuff coming

1355
01:12:12,920 --> 01:12:15,280
Speaker 1: from just sources out there who don't want to give

1356
01:12:15,280 --> 01:12:17,760
Speaker 1: a name. This is coming from actual documents that we

1357
01:12:17,880 --> 01:12:20,559
Speaker 1: reported on. We have to be very careful that our

1358
01:12:20,640 --> 01:12:26,160
Speaker 1: government isn't using our intelligence community for forespionage. I keep

1359
01:12:26,280 --> 01:12:30,600
Speaker 1: I kept using I kept using the term weaponizing intelligence.

1360
01:12:30,880 --> 01:12:33,639
Speaker 1: In other words, we give them the most sophisticated tools

1361
01:12:34,240 --> 01:12:39,080
Speaker 1: for surveillance. We have very specific rules about unmasking. We

1362
01:12:39,200 --> 01:12:43,000
Speaker 1: have very specific rules. You're not allowed to leak intelligence.

1363
01:12:43,040 --> 01:12:45,720
Speaker 1: That's a violation of the Espionage Act. All of these

1364
01:12:45,800 --> 01:12:49,280
Speaker 1: happened with regularity. Uh. And let's bring Luke Rosiac into

1365
01:12:49,360 --> 01:12:52,560
Speaker 1: this before we get an update on the Awan situation

1366
01:12:52,640 --> 01:12:55,160
Speaker 1: with Debbie Wasson and Schultz. What is your reaction? Is

1367
01:12:55,240 --> 01:12:57,720
Speaker 1: this a vindication not only for the president but for

1368
01:12:57,840 --> 01:12:59,800
Speaker 1: those of us that were reporting that in fact that

1369
01:13:00,000 --> 01:13:02,599
Speaker 1: it happened. It's a complete vindication, and I think it's

1370
01:13:02,600 --> 01:13:04,800
Speaker 1: a lesson about snark. I mean, let me read you

1371
01:13:04,880 --> 01:13:08,440
Speaker 1: some headlines from CNN from back in March Trump's baseless

1372
01:13:08,479 --> 01:13:11,680
Speaker 1: wire tap claim. Another story from March Donald Trump just

1373
01:13:11,800 --> 01:13:15,000
Speaker 1: flat out lied about Trump Tower wire tapping, so using

1374
01:13:15,080 --> 01:13:17,320
Speaker 1: this strong language, and then a few months later the

1375
01:13:17,360 --> 01:13:20,479
Speaker 1: report in the opposite. Another interesting question, though, is the

1376
01:13:20,640 --> 01:13:23,760
Speaker 1: date that they obtained this warrant, this most recent one.

1377
01:13:23,840 --> 01:13:27,280
Speaker 1: I mean, was it specifically after that dossier? Uh. That's

1378
01:13:27,400 --> 01:13:29,320
Speaker 1: kind of a piece of information that I noticed is

1379
01:13:29,400 --> 01:13:31,920
Speaker 1: missing from the CNN story is we don't know the

1380
01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:34,280
Speaker 1: exact date that this was authorized and that that could

1381
01:13:34,280 --> 01:13:36,960
Speaker 1: be a pretty important piece of information, right, I think

1382
01:13:37,000 --> 01:13:38,800
Speaker 1: it's really important. Right, So where are we with the

1383
01:13:39,560 --> 01:13:45,040
Speaker 1: WAND breach and investigation? There's there's information saying, well, we're

1384
01:13:45,120 --> 01:13:47,960
Speaker 1: not sure that anything horrible could happened here, but there's

1385
01:13:48,000 --> 01:13:50,800
Speaker 1: a lot of intrigue. Why do I suspect there's a

1386
01:13:50,840 --> 01:13:53,880
Speaker 1: lot more than intrigue now that a WAND left the

1387
01:13:54,000 --> 01:13:56,320
Speaker 1: computer so that officials can find it and in a

1388
01:13:56,439 --> 01:13:58,720
Speaker 1: letter to law enforcement, Well, we've been talking for a

1389
01:13:58,800 --> 01:14:02,760
Speaker 1: while about how was about theft and cybersecurity and and

1390
01:14:03,040 --> 01:14:05,040
Speaker 1: you've often said, you know, they were doing double billing,

1391
01:14:05,080 --> 01:14:07,240
Speaker 1: and I keep saying, no, Sean, they were doing cyber

1392
01:14:07,280 --> 01:14:09,439
Speaker 1: security stuff too, and we're gonna be able to reveal

1393
01:14:09,520 --> 01:14:12,120
Speaker 1: some of those details soon. Well, that day has come

1394
01:14:12,200 --> 01:14:14,640
Speaker 1: and we found out we can talk about the details now.

1395
01:14:14,960 --> 01:14:17,920
Speaker 1: They had a secret server and they were routing information

1396
01:14:18,040 --> 01:14:21,599
Speaker 1: from dozens of Members of Congresses servers onto this secret

1397
01:14:21,680 --> 01:14:24,040
Speaker 1: server where it was completely outside of their control, in

1398
01:14:24,080 --> 01:14:26,240
Speaker 1: their possession, It wasn't supposed to be there. And this

1399
01:14:26,360 --> 01:14:30,120
Speaker 1: server was housed inside the House Democratic Caucus, which was

1400
01:14:30,280 --> 01:14:34,719
Speaker 1: chaired by Xavier Bissera. Uh So this was a total

1401
01:14:34,960 --> 01:14:38,599
Speaker 1: massive breach of the custody of Members of Congresses data.

1402
01:14:38,680 --> 01:14:40,840
Speaker 1: And worse, it was also being backed up to drop

1403
01:14:40,920 --> 01:14:44,120
Speaker 1: Box via a personal account that the House could not

1404
01:14:44,280 --> 01:14:47,080
Speaker 1: shut down even when they banned these guys, so that

1405
01:14:47,240 --> 01:14:50,760
Speaker 1: data was still out there. Um and the worst. One

1406
01:14:50,800 --> 01:14:53,360
Speaker 1: of the most interesting parts is after they were caught.

1407
01:14:53,439 --> 01:14:55,680
Speaker 1: See Xavier Bissara. Remember he went on to become the

1408
01:14:55,760 --> 01:14:59,519
Speaker 1: California Attorney General in in January. So he said, I

1409
01:14:59,560 --> 01:15:01,960
Speaker 1: need a white this server in my office, and the

1410
01:15:02,040 --> 01:15:04,519
Speaker 1: cops said, not so fast. Your server is the subject

1411
01:15:04,600 --> 01:15:07,840
Speaker 1: of massive cybersecurity violations. It's evidence. We're gonna eat a

1412
01:15:07,920 --> 01:15:10,560
Speaker 1: hobby and stay right there, Luca, I want you to

1413
01:15:10,760 --> 01:15:13,160
Speaker 1: pick up that thought. When we get back, we'll come back. Continue.

1414
01:15:13,760 --> 01:15:15,920
Speaker 1: We're also going to do a tale of two presidents.

1415
01:15:16,120 --> 01:15:19,320
Speaker 1: President Trump probably his best speech before the u N today,

1416
01:15:19,400 --> 01:15:24,000
Speaker 1: moral clarity, talking about rocketman Kim Jong un and taking

1417
01:15:24,120 --> 01:15:27,439
Speaker 1: on the radium Mullah's and what a contrast to the

1418
01:15:27,479 --> 01:15:32,000
Speaker 1: speeches of apology and capitulation and appeasement of Obama. So

1419
01:15:32,120 --> 01:15:34,320
Speaker 1: will compare those two in the next half hour, and

1420
01:15:34,400 --> 01:15:37,920
Speaker 1: we'll do it also on Hannity tonight. Right as we continue,

1421
01:15:37,920 --> 01:15:40,040
Speaker 1: Sean Hannity Show. Right down our toll free telephone number

1422
01:15:40,040 --> 01:15:42,200
Speaker 1: and eight hundred nine for one, Shawn, if you want

1423
01:15:42,240 --> 01:15:44,320
Speaker 1: to be a part of the program. Well, it turns

1424
01:15:44,360 --> 01:15:47,320
Speaker 1: out that Sarah Carter, John Solomon in this program and

1425
01:15:47,439 --> 01:15:50,960
Speaker 1: others were right when it comes to surveillance of Trump,

1426
01:15:51,360 --> 01:15:54,840
Speaker 1: of his campaign, of his transition, and the information is

1427
01:15:54,840 --> 01:15:57,760
Speaker 1: getting more damning every day. And that means everybody else

1428
01:15:57,800 --> 01:16:01,040
Speaker 1: in the media that was yelling and screaming conspiracy theory

1429
01:16:01,560 --> 01:16:05,880
Speaker 1: has been proven wrong yet again. Mainstream media CNN, MSNBC,

1430
01:16:06,160 --> 01:16:09,320
Speaker 1: New York Times, Washington Post all wrong. So we have

1431
01:16:09,400 --> 01:16:11,560
Speaker 1: Sarah Carter with us. Luke rosiak Is with us. He

1432
01:16:11,640 --> 01:16:15,080
Speaker 1: has been all over the the instance of Debbie Wasserman

1433
01:16:15,160 --> 01:16:17,920
Speaker 1: Schultz and her I T Guy A wand Is. It

1434
01:16:18,080 --> 01:16:21,720
Speaker 1: now set that a. Wand Is has agreed to make

1435
01:16:21,760 --> 01:16:25,840
Speaker 1: a deal with prosecution prosecutors to tell them the truth,

1436
01:16:25,920 --> 01:16:29,160
Speaker 1: to hand over all evidence in some type of deal.

1437
01:16:31,120 --> 01:16:34,840
Speaker 1: There's only we can only speculate because basically, his wife

1438
01:16:34,920 --> 01:16:37,559
Speaker 1: left the country with all this money. The FBI said

1439
01:16:37,600 --> 01:16:39,519
Speaker 1: she had no plans to come back. There was a

1440
01:16:39,600 --> 01:16:42,200
Speaker 1: bunch of reasons why that seemed pretty clear. And now

1441
01:16:42,360 --> 01:16:44,720
Speaker 1: she's talking to prosecutors and say, well, if I come back,

1442
01:16:44,800 --> 01:16:46,560
Speaker 1: will you promise not to arrest me in front of

1443
01:16:46,600 --> 01:16:49,000
Speaker 1: my kids? And they said okay, So we're gonna find

1444
01:16:49,040 --> 01:16:51,080
Speaker 1: that out next week. They've got in court date that

1445
01:16:51,160 --> 01:16:54,880
Speaker 1: they set strategically for Friday afternoon, right before Columbus Day,

1446
01:16:54,920 --> 01:16:57,320
Speaker 1: which is a great day for a media blackout. Uh,

1447
01:16:57,400 --> 01:16:59,120
Speaker 1: And we're gonna see if she's on that plane. And

1448
01:16:59,200 --> 01:17:03,320
Speaker 1: if she is, raises the question of she's already home free,

1449
01:17:03,400 --> 01:17:05,800
Speaker 1: she's got all this money in Pakistan, why would she

1450
01:17:05,880 --> 01:17:08,000
Speaker 1: come back. Does she have some reason to believe that

1451
01:17:08,080 --> 01:17:10,519
Speaker 1: she's not gonna face along prison term? And there are

1452
01:17:10,520 --> 01:17:12,519
Speaker 1: a number of options why that could be the case,

1453
01:17:12,640 --> 01:17:15,080
Speaker 1: and none of them are All of them are kind

1454
01:17:15,120 --> 01:17:20,960
Speaker 1: of concerning Sarah. Yes, I'm here. Um, I think one

1455
01:17:21,040 --> 01:17:24,040
Speaker 1: of the I think one of the bigger issues. Shahn too,

1456
01:17:24,160 --> 01:17:26,479
Speaker 1: and Luke brought this up in his story, and um,

1457
01:17:26,520 --> 01:17:28,439
Speaker 1: I think this, this is something that a lot of

1458
01:17:28,479 --> 01:17:31,400
Speaker 1: people are really thinking about. But when all of these

1459
01:17:31,439 --> 01:17:34,600
Speaker 1: emails were pushed to the secret server, when all of

1460
01:17:34,640 --> 01:17:38,440
Speaker 1: those emails were accessed, possibly by the a one outside

1461
01:17:39,280 --> 01:17:42,320
Speaker 1: of the realm of working on Capitol Hill and being

1462
01:17:42,360 --> 01:17:46,040
Speaker 1: able to maybe move those move those emails, those batches

1463
01:17:46,120 --> 01:17:48,679
Speaker 1: of emails all the way to other countries like Pakistan,

1464
01:17:48,760 --> 01:17:51,120
Speaker 1: their home there, you know, their homeland. We have to

1465
01:17:51,200 --> 01:17:53,439
Speaker 1: think what we're in those emails, what did they have,

1466
01:17:53,920 --> 01:17:56,559
Speaker 1: could they have? And then LuSE process up before could

1467
01:17:56,600 --> 01:17:59,120
Speaker 1: they be used for blackmail? And one of the things

1468
01:17:59,160 --> 01:18:01,240
Speaker 1: that crossed my mind, and I think Luke Luke will

1469
01:18:01,320 --> 01:18:04,479
Speaker 1: understand this is we saw a lot of classified emails

1470
01:18:04,560 --> 01:18:07,559
Speaker 1: being shuffled from you know, when we talk about Hillary

1471
01:18:07,640 --> 01:18:09,880
Speaker 1: Clinton's email server, and it's been proven that there was

1472
01:18:09,960 --> 01:18:12,840
Speaker 1: classified information moving back and forth. Who's to say that

1473
01:18:12,960 --> 01:18:15,519
Speaker 1: some of these congressional members that are part of the

1474
01:18:15,600 --> 01:18:19,640
Speaker 1: House Intelligence Committee didn't put classified information in some of

1475
01:18:19,720 --> 01:18:22,680
Speaker 1: these emails. We just don't know, Well, we don't know,

1476
01:18:22,800 --> 01:18:24,080
Speaker 1: but it seems like we have to get to the

1477
01:18:24,120 --> 01:18:26,880
Speaker 1: bottom of it. Look, one last question, there seems to

1478
01:18:27,040 --> 01:18:30,560
Speaker 1: be a lot of unfinished investigations. We've had almost a

1479
01:18:30,720 --> 01:18:35,040
Speaker 1: year of Trump Russia with zero evidence presented. Now the

1480
01:18:35,160 --> 01:18:37,280
Speaker 1: question is now that the fix with it was in

1481
01:18:37,400 --> 01:18:39,720
Speaker 1: with Comey and Hillary Clinton, are we gonna go back

1482
01:18:39,800 --> 01:18:42,439
Speaker 1: to that? Does that mean does that open up uranium?

1483
01:18:42,479 --> 01:18:45,080
Speaker 1: One is Debbie Wasson and Schultz. Now the target of

1484
01:18:45,120 --> 01:18:48,479
Speaker 1: an investigation, Luke, Sean, We've got to get back to

1485
01:18:48,520 --> 01:18:50,760
Speaker 1: this secret server. They had a secret server that they

1486
01:18:50,800 --> 01:18:53,360
Speaker 1: access six thousand times, and these were people who weren't

1487
01:18:53,360 --> 01:18:56,400
Speaker 1: authorized to access it. They had tero bytes of information

1488
01:18:56,520 --> 01:18:59,400
Speaker 1: being transferred off of it, and the explanation that they

1489
01:18:59,439 --> 01:19:01,519
Speaker 1: gave the Wash and Post is that it was their

1490
01:19:01,600 --> 01:19:03,880
Speaker 1: kids homework. I mean, this is like when they said

1491
01:19:03,920 --> 01:19:07,639
Speaker 1: that Hillary Clinton deleted those emails because there were emails

1492
01:19:07,640 --> 01:19:10,560
Speaker 1: about yoga. I mean, it defies belief. There's been no

1493
01:19:10,680 --> 01:19:14,040
Speaker 1: explanation for these terabytes of information being funneled out of

1494
01:19:14,120 --> 01:19:16,439
Speaker 1: the congressional network. I mean the idea that is this

1495
01:19:16,640 --> 01:19:20,519
Speaker 1: kid's homework is just, uh, it is just astonishing. Yeah,

1496
01:19:20,600 --> 01:19:23,080
Speaker 1: it really is. Um all right, last word, Sarah, and

1497
01:19:23,080 --> 01:19:26,160
Speaker 1: we gotta break well. I think we can only hope

1498
01:19:26,240 --> 01:19:29,200
Speaker 1: that not only Congress takes this seriously enough, that our

1499
01:19:29,280 --> 01:19:32,120
Speaker 1: Justice Department takes it seriously enough. This is a serious

1500
01:19:32,240 --> 01:19:35,960
Speaker 1: national national security breach, and I don't think it ends here.

1501
01:19:36,040 --> 01:19:38,240
Speaker 1: I think, like you said, Sean, like you said, luc

1502
01:19:38,320 --> 01:19:40,200
Speaker 1: this is just the tipathy Iceberg, and there's going to

1503
01:19:40,280 --> 01:19:41,960
Speaker 1: be a lot more to come. All Right, thank you

1504
01:19:42,040 --> 01:19:44,120
Speaker 1: both of being well us. We appreciate it. We're not

1505
01:19:44,200 --> 01:19:48,280
Speaker 1: going to stop media conspiracy theories. They accused conservatives. They

1506
01:19:48,360 --> 01:19:51,360
Speaker 1: have been guilty of false reporting from the get go.

1507
01:19:51,520 --> 01:19:53,920
Speaker 1: They've been wrong from the get go. And I can

1508
01:19:53,960 --> 01:19:57,080
Speaker 1: only tell you TikTok, this is only the beginning of

1509
01:19:57,280 --> 01:20:00,759
Speaker 1: the troubles for the mainstream media. Eighte war one Sean

1510
01:20:00,880 --> 01:20:02,320
Speaker 1: toll free number. You want to be a part of

1511
01:20:02,360 --> 01:20:04,840
Speaker 1: the program, we gotta take a quick break. We'll come back,

1512
01:20:04,920 --> 01:20:08,000
Speaker 1: We'll continue. It's the Sean Hannity Show now till the

1513
01:20:08,200 --> 01:20:10,880
Speaker 1: top of the hour, one Sean, if you want to

1514
01:20:10,920 --> 01:20:13,280
Speaker 1: be a part of the program. In thirty years, Prime

1515
01:20:13,320 --> 01:20:15,880
Speaker 1: Minister Benjamin that Ya, who never heard of bolder, more

1516
01:20:15,960 --> 01:20:20,559
Speaker 1: courageous speech at the United Nations and the President drawing

1517
01:20:20,840 --> 01:20:25,519
Speaker 1: applause at the U n for lasting the Iranian murderous

1518
01:20:25,680 --> 01:20:31,320
Speaker 1: regime and warning Tehran's mullahs are still working on nuclear weapons.

1519
01:20:31,560 --> 01:20:34,280
Speaker 1: I think the funniest thing is calling Kim Jong un

1520
01:20:34,760 --> 01:20:38,400
Speaker 1: rocket man again and again, and he will force us

1521
01:20:38,560 --> 01:20:42,519
Speaker 1: to defend ourselves. And rocket Man is on a suicide mission.

1522
01:20:42,680 --> 01:20:44,840
Speaker 1: You know, I just I want to give because I

1523
01:20:44,920 --> 01:20:50,200
Speaker 1: thought this was an example of how America has moral clarity,

1524
01:20:50,439 --> 01:20:53,120
Speaker 1: and leads. For so many years I have said, there's

1525
01:20:53,160 --> 01:20:56,320
Speaker 1: really only one person on the world stage that gets

1526
01:20:56,479 --> 01:21:00,839
Speaker 1: and understands the difference of and has the oral clarity

1527
01:21:01,040 --> 01:21:05,000
Speaker 1: and understands the battle against evil in our time. Now, interestingly,

1528
01:21:05,120 --> 01:21:07,040
Speaker 1: I'm going to air part of an interview that I

1529
01:21:07,439 --> 01:21:10,439
Speaker 1: did with President L. C. C who took on radical

1530
01:21:10,600 --> 01:21:13,560
Speaker 1: Islam as the president of Egypt in that part of

1531
01:21:13,600 --> 01:21:17,200
Speaker 1: the world was it was extraordinarily courageous on his part.

1532
01:21:17,360 --> 01:21:20,799
Speaker 1: But this is like a tale of two presidents, two visions,

1533
01:21:21,160 --> 01:21:25,360
Speaker 1: one of strength, one of resolve, one of clarity, versus

1534
01:21:25,520 --> 01:21:30,920
Speaker 1: a president that blames America, apologizes for America, and is

1535
01:21:31,200 --> 01:21:34,960
Speaker 1: a classic appeaser in his time. Will start with Obama.

1536
01:21:35,240 --> 01:21:40,280
Speaker 1: It's it's before the United Nations. Let's listen. Yes, in America,

1537
01:21:40,400 --> 01:21:42,760
Speaker 1: there is too much money in politics, too much and

1538
01:21:42,840 --> 01:21:48,080
Speaker 1: transpartisanship to too little participation by citizens, in part because

1539
01:21:48,800 --> 01:21:52,000
Speaker 1: a patchwork allaws that makes it harder to vote. That

1540
01:21:52,120 --> 01:21:54,800
Speaker 1: while we've made our share of mistakes over these last

1541
01:21:54,840 --> 01:21:59,320
Speaker 1: twenty five years, I've acknowledged some we have stride, sometimes

1542
01:21:59,400 --> 01:22:02,640
Speaker 1: a great side prefice to align better our actions with

1543
01:22:02,720 --> 01:22:05,400
Speaker 1: our ideals, and we can only realize the promise of

1544
01:22:05,520 --> 01:22:09,680
Speaker 1: this Institution's founded to replace the ravages of war with cooperation.

1545
01:22:10,200 --> 01:22:15,280
Speaker 1: If powerful nations like my own except constraints, sometimes I'm

1546
01:22:15,320 --> 01:22:19,880
Speaker 1: criticized in my own country or professing a belief in

1547
01:22:20,040 --> 01:22:23,559
Speaker 1: international norms. I've noticed as president that at times both

1548
01:22:23,600 --> 01:22:27,519
Speaker 1: America's adversaries and some of our allies believe that all

1549
01:22:27,640 --> 01:22:31,360
Speaker 1: problems were either caused by Washington or could be solved

1550
01:22:31,360 --> 01:22:34,600
Speaker 1: by Washington, and perhaps too many in Washington believe that

1551
01:22:34,680 --> 01:22:37,320
Speaker 1: as well. So just as I pursued these measures here

1552
01:22:37,360 --> 01:22:39,360
Speaker 1: at home, so has the United States worked with many

1553
01:22:39,479 --> 01:22:44,599
Speaker 1: nations to curb the excesses of capitalism, not to punish wealth,

1554
01:22:45,920 --> 01:22:50,560
Speaker 1: but to prevent repeated crises that can destroy it. A

1555
01:22:50,680 --> 01:22:54,559
Speaker 1: society that asks less of oligarchs than ordinary citizens will

1556
01:22:54,640 --> 01:22:58,040
Speaker 1: rot from women and advanced economies like my own. Unions

1557
01:22:58,040 --> 01:23:02,840
Speaker 1: have been undermined, and many manufacturing jobs have disappeared. Surely

1558
01:23:02,920 --> 01:23:07,559
Speaker 1: we can rally our nations to solidarity while recognizing equal

1559
01:23:07,680 --> 01:23:11,879
Speaker 1: treatment for all communities, whether it's a religious minority in Myanmar,

1560
01:23:12,200 --> 01:23:15,679
Speaker 1: for an ethnic minority in Burundi, for a racial minority

1561
01:23:15,800 --> 01:23:18,559
Speaker 1: right here in the United States. Everything you don't want

1562
01:23:18,600 --> 01:23:20,600
Speaker 1: to hear from a president. It's when nobody on the

1563
01:23:20,640 --> 01:23:24,000
Speaker 1: world stage respected him. And then the plainloads of cash

1564
01:23:24,200 --> 01:23:27,400
Speaker 1: going to Tehran, you know, some what, hundred and fifty

1565
01:23:27,479 --> 01:23:30,280
Speaker 1: billion dollars in cash and other currencies going to the

1566
01:23:30,640 --> 01:23:33,880
Speaker 1: rogue regime that threatens to wipe Israel off the map,

1567
01:23:34,200 --> 01:23:38,439
Speaker 1: threatens America. The great Satan burns American flags and burns

1568
01:23:38,600 --> 01:23:42,800
Speaker 1: Israeli flags. Here is the comparison, the contrast. And this

1569
01:23:43,000 --> 01:23:45,040
Speaker 1: was the President, I think one of his finest moments

1570
01:23:45,120 --> 01:23:48,160
Speaker 1: now since being president at the u N earlier today,

1571
01:23:48,240 --> 01:23:51,800
Speaker 1: President Trump, as President of the United States, I will

1572
01:23:51,840 --> 01:23:56,559
Speaker 1: always put America first, just like you, as the leaders

1573
01:23:56,760 --> 01:24:02,400
Speaker 1: of your countries, will always and she always put your

1574
01:24:02,680 --> 01:24:11,080
Speaker 1: country's first. For all, responsible leaders have an obligation to

1575
01:24:11,320 --> 01:24:15,120
Speaker 1: serve their own citizens, and the nation state remains the

1576
01:24:15,240 --> 01:24:20,479
Speaker 1: best vehicle for elevating the human condition. The United States

1577
01:24:21,040 --> 01:24:24,040
Speaker 1: will forever be a great friend to the world and

1578
01:24:24,320 --> 01:24:27,680
Speaker 1: especially to its allies. But we can no longer be

1579
01:24:27,800 --> 01:24:31,519
Speaker 1: taken advantage of or enter into a one sided deal

1580
01:24:32,040 --> 01:24:36,080
Speaker 1: where the United States gets nothing in return. As long

1581
01:24:36,160 --> 01:24:40,519
Speaker 1: as I hold this office, I will defend America's interests

1582
01:24:40,920 --> 01:24:45,360
Speaker 1: above all else. America does more than speak for the

1583
01:24:45,479 --> 01:24:50,200
Speaker 1: values expressed in the United Nations Charter. Our citizens have

1584
01:24:50,360 --> 01:24:54,400
Speaker 1: paid the ultimate price to defend our freedom and the

1585
01:24:54,560 --> 01:24:59,120
Speaker 1: freedom of many nations represented in this great hall. America's

1586
01:24:59,200 --> 01:25:03,760
Speaker 1: devotion measured on the battlefields where our young men and

1587
01:25:03,920 --> 01:25:08,720
Speaker 1: women have fought and sacrificed alongside of our allies, from

1588
01:25:08,760 --> 01:25:11,599
Speaker 1: the beaches of Europe to the deserts of the Middle

1589
01:25:11,680 --> 01:25:15,920
Speaker 1: East to the jungles of Asia. It is an eternal

1590
01:25:16,040 --> 01:25:20,280
Speaker 1: credit to the American character that, even after we and

1591
01:25:20,360 --> 01:25:24,759
Speaker 1: our allies emerged victorious from the bloodiest war in history,

1592
01:25:25,120 --> 01:25:30,680
Speaker 1: we did not seek territorial expansion or attempt to oppose

1593
01:25:30,960 --> 01:25:36,680
Speaker 1: and impose our way of life on others. This is

1594
01:25:36,920 --> 01:25:41,839
Speaker 1: our hope. We want harmony and friendship, not conflict and strife.

1595
01:25:42,200 --> 01:25:46,479
Speaker 1: We are guided by outcomes, not ideology. We have a

1596
01:25:46,680 --> 01:25:53,120
Speaker 1: policy of principal realism, rooted in shared goals, interests, and values.

1597
01:25:53,640 --> 01:25:57,639
Speaker 1: That realism forces us to confront the question facing every

1598
01:25:57,760 --> 01:26:01,160
Speaker 1: leader and nation in this room. It is a question

1599
01:26:01,280 --> 01:26:04,760
Speaker 1: we cannot escape or avoid. If we desire to lift

1600
01:26:04,880 --> 01:26:09,240
Speaker 1: up our citizens, if we aspire to the approval of history,

1601
01:26:09,600 --> 01:26:13,439
Speaker 1: then we must fulfill our sovereign duties to the people.

1602
01:26:13,880 --> 01:26:18,360
Speaker 1: We faithfully represent the scourge of our planet today is

1603
01:26:18,439 --> 01:26:22,839
Speaker 1: a small group of rogue regimes that violate every principle

1604
01:26:22,960 --> 01:26:26,559
Speaker 1: on which the United Nations is based. They respect neither

1605
01:26:26,680 --> 01:26:30,839
Speaker 1: their own citizens nor the sovereign rights of their countries.

1606
01:26:31,200 --> 01:26:34,560
Speaker 1: No one has shown more contempt for other nations and

1607
01:26:34,720 --> 01:26:37,560
Speaker 1: for the well being of their own people than the

1608
01:26:37,760 --> 01:26:42,960
Speaker 1: depraved regime in North Korea. Now. North Korea's reckless pursuit

1609
01:26:43,000 --> 01:26:47,519
Speaker 1: of nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles threatens the entire world

1610
01:26:48,120 --> 01:26:52,280
Speaker 1: with unthinkable loss of human life. It is an outrage

1611
01:26:52,400 --> 01:26:55,599
Speaker 1: that some nations would not only trade with such a regime,

1612
01:26:55,880 --> 01:26:59,560
Speaker 1: but would arm, supply and financially support a country that

1613
01:26:59,680 --> 01:27:03,920
Speaker 1: imp arrows the world with nuclear conflict. No nation on

1614
01:27:04,080 --> 01:27:07,640
Speaker 1: Earth has an interest in seeing this band of criminals

1615
01:27:07,760 --> 01:27:12,799
Speaker 1: arm itself with nuclear weapons and missis. The United States

1616
01:27:12,960 --> 01:27:16,200
Speaker 1: has great strength and patience, but if it is forced

1617
01:27:16,240 --> 01:27:19,080
Speaker 1: to defend itself for its allies, we will have no

1618
01:27:19,400 --> 01:27:25,080
Speaker 1: choice but to totally destroy North Korea. Rocket Man is

1619
01:27:25,160 --> 01:27:28,759
Speaker 1: on a suicide mission for himself and for his regime.

1620
01:27:29,200 --> 01:27:34,120
Speaker 1: The United States is ready willing enable, but hopefully this

1621
01:27:34,320 --> 01:27:39,200
Speaker 1: will not be necessary. That's what the United Nations is

1622
01:27:39,280 --> 01:27:44,360
Speaker 1: all about. That's what the United Nations is for. Let's

1623
01:27:44,439 --> 01:27:47,400
Speaker 1: see how they do. It is far past time for

1624
01:27:47,479 --> 01:27:50,759
Speaker 1: the nations of the world to confront another reckless regime,

1625
01:27:51,120 --> 01:27:55,360
Speaker 1: one that speaks openly of mass murder, vowing death to America,

1626
01:27:55,840 --> 01:28:00,400
Speaker 1: destruction to Israel, and ruined for many leaders and Atians

1627
01:28:00,600 --> 01:28:05,920
Speaker 1: in this room. The Iranian government masks a corrupt dictatorship

1628
01:28:06,040 --> 01:28:10,000
Speaker 1: behind the false guise of a democracy. It has turned

1629
01:28:10,040 --> 01:28:14,040
Speaker 1: a wealthy country with a rich history and culture into

1630
01:28:14,120 --> 01:28:20,320
Speaker 1: an economically depleted rogue state whose chief exports are violence, bloodshed,

1631
01:28:20,560 --> 01:28:25,120
Speaker 1: and chaos. The longest suffering victims of Iran's leaders are,

1632
01:28:25,200 --> 01:28:28,160
Speaker 1: in fact, its own people. It is time for the

1633
01:28:28,439 --> 01:28:32,000
Speaker 1: entire world to join us in demanding that Iran's government

1634
01:28:32,240 --> 01:28:36,120
Speaker 1: end its pursuit of death and destruction. The Iranian regime

1635
01:28:36,240 --> 01:28:39,880
Speaker 1: support for Terra is in stark contrast to the recent

1636
01:28:40,000 --> 01:28:43,120
Speaker 1: commitments of many of its neighbors to fight terrorism and

1637
01:28:43,320 --> 01:28:47,760
Speaker 1: halt its finances. In Saudi Arabia, early last year, I

1638
01:28:48,000 --> 01:28:52,200
Speaker 1: was greatly honored to address the leaders of more than

1639
01:28:52,360 --> 01:28:57,400
Speaker 1: fifty Arab and Muslim nations. We agreed that all responsible

1640
01:28:57,560 --> 01:29:01,840
Speaker 1: nations must work together to confront arrists and the Islamic

1641
01:29:02,120 --> 01:29:08,479
Speaker 1: extremism that inspires them. We will stop radical Islamic terrorism

1642
01:29:08,600 --> 01:29:11,639
Speaker 1: because we cannot allow it to tear up our nation

1643
01:29:11,920 --> 01:29:15,840
Speaker 1: and indeed to tear up the entire world. We must

1644
01:29:15,920 --> 01:29:20,400
Speaker 1: deny the terrorists safe haven, transit funding, and any form

1645
01:29:20,479 --> 01:29:25,519
Speaker 1: of support for their vile and sinister ideology. Last month,

1646
01:29:25,680 --> 01:29:28,679
Speaker 1: I announced a new strategy for victory in the fight

1647
01:29:28,920 --> 01:29:33,640
Speaker 1: against this evil in Afghanistan. From now on, our security

1648
01:29:33,720 --> 01:29:37,520
Speaker 1: interests will dictate the length and scope of military operations,

1649
01:29:37,800 --> 01:29:44,160
Speaker 1: not arbitrary benchmarks and timetables set up by politicians. For decades,

1650
01:29:44,240 --> 01:29:48,080
Speaker 1: the United States has dealt with migration challenges here in

1651
01:29:48,160 --> 01:29:51,360
Speaker 1: the Western Hemisphere. We have learned that over the long term,

1652
01:29:51,720 --> 01:29:56,160
Speaker 1: uncontrolled migration is deeply unfair to both the sending and

1653
01:29:56,320 --> 01:30:01,120
Speaker 1: the receiving countries. For the sending countries, it reduced domestic

1654
01:30:01,200 --> 01:30:07,080
Speaker 1: pressure to pursue needed political and economic reform and drains

1655
01:30:07,320 --> 01:30:11,720
Speaker 1: them of the human capital necessary to motivate and implement

1656
01:30:12,160 --> 01:30:16,600
Speaker 1: those reforms. For the receiving countries, the substantial costs of

1657
01:30:16,800 --> 01:30:22,080
Speaker 1: uncontrolled migration are born overwhelmingly by low income citizens, whose

1658
01:30:22,160 --> 01:30:26,280
Speaker 1: concerns are often ignored by both media and government. The

1659
01:30:26,439 --> 01:30:29,920
Speaker 1: United States is one out of one hundred and ninety

1660
01:30:30,000 --> 01:30:33,160
Speaker 1: three countries in the United Nations, and yet we pay

1661
01:30:33,320 --> 01:30:37,639
Speaker 1: twenty two percent of the entire budget and more. In fact,

1662
01:30:38,320 --> 01:30:43,000
Speaker 1: we pay far more than anybody realizes. The United States

1663
01:30:43,160 --> 01:30:47,320
Speaker 1: bears an unfair cost burden. But to be fair, if

1664
01:30:47,400 --> 01:30:52,280
Speaker 1: it could actually accomplish all of its stated goals, especially

1665
01:30:52,400 --> 01:30:56,559
Speaker 1: the goal of peace, this investment would easily be well

1666
01:30:56,640 --> 01:31:01,120
Speaker 1: worth it. Major portions of the world are conflict, and some,

1667
01:31:01,400 --> 01:31:04,880
Speaker 1: in fact are going to hell. We have also imposed tough,

1668
01:31:05,000 --> 01:31:10,880
Speaker 1: calibrated sanctions on the socialist Maduro regime in Venezuela, which

1669
01:31:10,960 --> 01:31:14,400
Speaker 1: has brought a once thriving nation to the brink of

1670
01:31:14,520 --> 01:31:19,520
Speaker 1: total collapse. The problem in Venezuela is not that socialism

1671
01:31:19,640 --> 01:31:25,600
Speaker 1: has been poorly implemented, but that socialism has been faithfully implemented.

1672
01:31:25,880 --> 01:31:30,280
Speaker 1: While America will pursue cooperation and commerce with other nations,

1673
01:31:30,560 --> 01:31:34,080
Speaker 1: we are renewing our commitment to the first duty of

1674
01:31:34,200 --> 01:31:38,320
Speaker 1: every government, the duty of our citizens. This bond is

1675
01:31:38,439 --> 01:31:42,840
Speaker 1: the source of America's strength and that of every responsible

1676
01:31:43,000 --> 01:31:47,519
Speaker 1: nation represented here today. If this organization is to have

1677
01:31:47,640 --> 01:31:52,320
Speaker 1: any hope of successfully confronting the challenges before us, it

1678
01:31:52,479 --> 01:31:57,360
Speaker 1: will depend as President Truman said some seventy years ago,

1679
01:31:57,840 --> 01:32:01,960
Speaker 1: on the independent rank of its members. If we are

1680
01:32:02,040 --> 01:32:05,200
Speaker 1: to embrace the opportunities of the future and overcome the

1681
01:32:05,360 --> 01:32:11,120
Speaker 1: present dangers together, there can be no substitute for strong,

1682
01:32:11,760 --> 01:32:16,880
Speaker 1: sovereign and independent nations, Nations that are rooted in their

1683
01:32:17,040 --> 01:32:21,519
Speaker 1: histories and invested in their destiny. The true question for

1684
01:32:21,640 --> 01:32:25,000
Speaker 1: the United Nations today, for people all over the world

1685
01:32:25,160 --> 01:32:28,360
Speaker 1: who hope for better lives for themselves and their children,

1686
01:32:28,640 --> 01:32:33,120
Speaker 1: is a basic one. Are we still patriots? Do we

1687
01:32:33,320 --> 01:32:36,360
Speaker 1: love our nations enough to protect their sovereignty and to

1688
01:32:36,520 --> 01:32:41,080
Speaker 1: take ownership of their futures. Do re revere them enough

1689
01:32:41,479 --> 01:32:46,280
Speaker 1: to defend their interests, preserve their cultures, and ensure a

1690
01:32:46,520 --> 01:32:50,840
Speaker 1: peaceful world for their citizens. History is asking us whether

1691
01:32:50,920 --> 01:32:54,400
Speaker 1: we are up to the task. Our answer will be

1692
01:32:54,680 --> 01:32:59,519
Speaker 1: a renewal of will, a rediscovery of resolve, and a

1693
01:32:59,680 --> 01:33:04,200
Speaker 1: re birth of devotion. We need to defeat the enemies

1694
01:33:04,520 --> 01:33:09,920
Speaker 1: of humanity and unlock the potential of life itself. Our

1695
01:33:10,000 --> 01:33:15,120
Speaker 1: hope is a world of proud, independent nations that embrace

1696
01:33:15,240 --> 01:33:20,000
Speaker 1: their duties, seek friendship, respect others, and make common cause

1697
01:33:20,160 --> 01:33:23,360
Speaker 1: in the greatest shared interests of all. A future of

1698
01:33:23,479 --> 01:33:27,479
Speaker 1: dignity and peace for the people of this wonderful earth.

1699
01:33:28,080 --> 01:33:31,240
Speaker 1: This is the true vision of the United Nations. So

1700
01:33:31,479 --> 01:33:34,240
Speaker 1: let this be our mission, and let this be our

1701
01:33:34,400 --> 01:33:38,839
Speaker 1: message to the world. We will fight together, sacrifice together,

1702
01:33:39,240 --> 01:33:45,799
Speaker 1: and stand together for peace, for freedom, for justice, for family,

1703
01:33:46,280 --> 01:33:50,800
Speaker 1: for humanity, and for the Almighty God who made us all.

1704
01:33:51,160 --> 01:33:55,360
Speaker 1: Thank you, God, Bless you, God Bless the nations of

1705
01:33:55,479 --> 01:33:59,759
Speaker 1: the world, and God Bless the United States of America.

1706
01:34:00,080 --> 01:34:04,240
Speaker 1: Amazing contrast, isn't it. One is somebody who has moral clarity,

1707
01:34:04,479 --> 01:34:07,480
Speaker 1: one who understands evil in our time, one who understands

1708
01:34:07,600 --> 01:34:10,080
Speaker 1: the battle that is before us, one that wants to

1709
01:34:10,240 --> 01:34:12,720
Speaker 1: keep good people safe. And the others saying, well, if

1710
01:34:12,720 --> 01:34:15,000
Speaker 1: we'd be a little nicer to you, even though you're

1711
01:34:15,040 --> 01:34:17,439
Speaker 1: threatening us, Will you be nice to us please? I

1712
01:34:17,520 --> 01:34:24,080
Speaker 1: mean a level of naivete beyond words to me. A

1713
01:34:24,200 --> 01:34:28,000
Speaker 1: right media now proven wrong egg on their face. Donald

1714
01:34:28,040 --> 01:34:32,600
Speaker 1: Trumps campaign was surveiled by people in the Obama administration.

1715
01:34:32,680 --> 01:34:35,320
Speaker 1: Will people now pay attention to the risk of a

1716
01:34:35,479 --> 01:34:39,000
Speaker 1: masking the President's bold speech before the U n Today,
