Speaker 1: elections are held. So what can we expect until those

5
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:18,079
Speaker 1: Johnson says Joe Biden should let President leg Donald Trump

6

Speaker 1: decide on any further aid to Ukraine. Will President Biden

7
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:28,600
Speaker 1: heed that advice? We'll find out. Plus, new bombshell revelations

9
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:34,520
Speaker 1: until you hear who they tried to help. We've got

10
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:37,159
Speaker 1: that story in so much more right now on the

11
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:39,240

Speaker 2: This is what it looks like to be a patriot.

18
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:00,840
Speaker 1: We have to protect the American family.

19
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:03,760
Speaker 3: The American dream is still alive.

00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 1: out Tuesday.

29
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 2: I've been here in spirit, so you haven't been with

30
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:35,880
Speaker 2: us for three days.

31
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:36,440
Speaker 4: Wow.

32
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:40,440
Speaker 1: Oh, I've been here just just physically, but yeah, mentally

33
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:42,600
Speaker 1: checked out. Sorry, I'm just joking.

34
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:44,200
Speaker 2: You're like a hologram.

35
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:46,319
Speaker 3: Listen. I am thankful that I got to spend a

36
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 3: whole other week with you guys talking about the thing

37
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,160
Speaker 3: that I like to think about the most anyway, which

38
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 3: is politics. Oddly, and it's a little sick, but that's

39
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:57,320
Speaker 3: the truth. So there you have it. I know, it's

40
00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:58,960
Speaker 3: been a good week with you guys, and lots of

41
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 3: great guests and lots of fun topics and a great

42
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 3: control room back there and also in Denver that we

43
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 3: are very thankful for as well.

44
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:10,359
Speaker 1: No, absolutely, doctor Gina. And there's lots of headlines coming

45
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 1: out of Capitol Hill. Since you liked politics. Oh, I

46
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 1: got plenty of politics from doctor Jina. Absolutely. Thursday was

47
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 1: a really big day on Capitol Hill. In fact, the

48
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 1: acting director of the Secret Service once again admitting that

49
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:25,240
Speaker 1: his agency failed and its mission to keep now president

50
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:28,679
Speaker 1: ele like Donald Trump safe from assassination attempts. Ronald Rowe

51
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:32,240
Speaker 1: also claims he has overhauled the agency security practice as

52
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:35,639
Speaker 1: following the July attack on President Trump's life in Pennsylvania.

53
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 1: That was his testimony before a House task force of

54
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 1: seven Republicans and six Democrats who are investigating the two

55
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 1: failed assassination attempts on the soon to be forty seventh president.

56
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,840
Speaker 1: But this interaction you're getting ready to see over Roe's

57
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 1: appearance at this year's nine to eleven commemoration, attended by

58
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:54,920
Speaker 1: Presidents Trump and Biden, as well as Vice President Harris,

59
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:58,519
Speaker 1: is what really has people on Capitol Hill talking Listen.

60
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 4: Responded to Ground Zero.

61
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 2: I was there going through the ashes of the World

62
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 2: Trade Center.

63
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:07,160
Speaker 4: I was there at Fresh Kills.

64
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,960
Speaker 3: I'm not asking you that, Connor, and.

65
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:15,799
Speaker 4: To show respect he die.

66
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:17,799
Speaker 3: I do not know that you're trying to be do

67
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 3: not in vote nine to eleven for political purposes.

68
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 4: Not I'm invoking lor sir, you are out of the

69
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 4: moment to ask him, and don't by.

70
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:35,280
Speaker 1: Me WHOA All right, let's get back to the real

71
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 1: substance here. As for the assassination attempts against President Trump,

72
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 1: Roe says there will be accountability. He also claims that

73
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:46,240
Speaker 1: accountability is already occurring, but there's not specific information about

74
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 1: what kind of penalties those involved are or will face.

75
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 1: House Democrats successfully force a vote on releasing the infamous

76
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 1: House Ethics Committee report on former Florida Congressman Matt Gates.

77
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 1: House Republicans, on the other hand, shoot down the idea

78
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 1: before a final vote. Instead, the lawmakers voted to refer

79
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 1: the resolution to the relevant committee. It's highly unlikely that

80
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 1: a gop led committee will take up the measure, though,

81
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 1: meaning it's essentially defeated. Long story short here, the ethics

82
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:19,160
Speaker 1: report surrounding Gates likely will never see the light of day.

83
00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:22,320
Speaker 1: You may remember, Gates resigned his Congressional seat before the

84
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 1: document was set to be released. Congressional leaders decided not

85
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,600
Speaker 1: to release that report, saying they no longer have jurisdiction

86
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:32,359
Speaker 1: because Gates isn't a congressman anymore. He stepped down in

87
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,279
Speaker 1: order to pursue his nomination for President Trump's attorney general,

88
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 1: and eventually withdrew his name from that job over concerns

89
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 1: about that ethics report. The jury deliberating the fate of

90
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 1: the former Marine charged in the deadly chokehold death of

91
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 1: a homeless man on a New York subway could return

92
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,800
Speaker 1: their verdict as soon as today. The twenty four year

93
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:55,760
Speaker 1: old is accused of manslaughter and criminally negligent homicide. He

94
00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 1: is pleaded not guilty to both charges. But as day

95
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 1: four of jury deliberation gets under way today, the victim's father,

96
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:07,280
Speaker 1: the victim's father is now suing his son's killer. The

97
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:10,159
Speaker 1: civil suit was filed on Thursday, even before the criminal

98
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:13,120
Speaker 1: case is decided. The case is being brought in the

99
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,720
Speaker 1: New York Supreme Court and accuses the former Marine of

100
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:18,719
Speaker 1: negligence along with the sault and battery in that twenty

101
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:22,000
Speaker 1: twenty three choke hold death. The court filing says the

102
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:25,400
Speaker 1: suit is seeking damages quote in the sum which exceed

103
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 1: the jurisdictional limits of all lower courts which would otherwise

104
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:31,920
Speaker 1: have jurisdiction here. We'll, of course let you know how

105
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:33,800
Speaker 1: all of this works out, both the criminal and the

106
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 1: civil case. All right, let's get you back over to David. Now, David,

107
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:39,560
Speaker 1: that story is one that I think we're going to

108
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 1: be following a lot of interest there out of New

109
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 1: York specifically related to that.

110
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 2: Story, no doubt about it, and we'll have it here,

111
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 2: of course, across the network all day long. We now

112
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 2: know turns that the final majority the Republicans are going

113
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 2: to have in a House, it's going to be razor thin.

114
00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 2: Let's give you the numbers. Republicans currently have two hundred

115
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,960
Speaker 2: and twenty seats to Democrats two hundred and fifteen. However,

116
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 2: you've got Matt Gates. He's gone or he's going to

117
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:08,839
Speaker 2: be gone in this next congress. Mike Walls a least staphonic.

118
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:10,920
Speaker 2: They're set to resign in the next Congress so they

119
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:14,119
Speaker 2: can go serve in the Trump administration. So that's three.

120
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 2: That leaves Republicans with just two hundred and seventeen seas,

121
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:20,279
Speaker 2: not two twenty, until special elections are held to replace

122
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:22,640
Speaker 2: those three seats. So here's the math. It's a two

123
00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:26,599
Speaker 2: seat majority, two seventeen to two fifteen, at least until

124
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 2: those other three seats are filled. I hope I made sense.

125
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 2: I don't know. Did I just confuse myself? I don't

126
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 2: think so. I think I was very self I think

127
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:37,080
Speaker 2: I explained it well, thank you very much. So what

128
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 2: can we expect as we get closer to the next Congress. Oh,

129
00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:43,200
Speaker 2: I have an idea. Let's bring in Daily Signal political

130
00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 2: editor or politics editor Bradley Devlin. You tell me, Bradley,

131
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 2: would you like to call political editor or politics editor?

132
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 4: But you know one works either one works for right.

133
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:55,280
Speaker 4: But what I will say, I will say you nailed it.

134
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,880
Speaker 4: You did a great job explaining what's an issue here.

135
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 4: You know, we've got to have replace these prominent representatives

136
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:06,040
Speaker 4: in Congress before Republicans can feel very confident in this

137
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:08,880
Speaker 4: five seat majority. But this razor thin majority, what does

138
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 4: it do well? It means that any two members can

139
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:15,320
Speaker 4: get together and kind of force different items that are

140
00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:19,080
Speaker 4: on their personal agendas, right, that are on their constituents agendas,

141
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 4: to try to lump that into any sort of budget

142
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:25,120
Speaker 4: reconciliation deal that's going through. Whether that reconciliation deal is

143
00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 4: targeting tax cuts, is it targeting tariffs, is it targeting immigration.

144
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,360
Speaker 4: So Mike Johnson has a tough road to hoe and

145
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 4: ahead of him. After continuing to secure the Republican majority

146
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 4: for another two years, I think he's in a stronger

147
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,280
Speaker 4: position than he was when he entered the office originally.

148
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:46,120
Speaker 4: But Nevertheless, we have a government funding fight still upcoming

149
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:48,080
Speaker 4: in December, and that's going to tell us a lot

150
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 4: about how the Republican Conference feels about their speaker Bradley.

151
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,600
Speaker 2: A quick follow up on that, the Trump tax cuts.

152
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 2: You would think that could get through on a razor

153
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 2: thin majority extending the Trump tax cuts, but that immigration

154
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 2: a whole different Bak.

155
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:06,280
Speaker 4: Absolutely, I think it's going to be a difficult procedural

156
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 4: mechanism that Johnson's going to have to use. We've seen

157
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 4: this previously where Johnson's use something called a MIRV an

158
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 4: mr V, which basically means that it's one rule set

159
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:21,680
Speaker 4: passed by the Rules Committee to govern four different aspects

160
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 4: of a single bill. So basically, the Rules Committee says,

161
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,200
Speaker 4: here is the here are the rules that will govern

162
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:31,160
Speaker 4: our debate over these four different topics, and the House

163
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:34,240
Speaker 4: votes four different times on each of these items. Remember

164
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:37,319
Speaker 4: this was a supplemental bill for foreign aid in particular,

165
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:40,280
Speaker 4: that he used the MIRV on last time. He could

166
00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:43,200
Speaker 4: use a NERV this time, which says, Okay, we're going

167
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 4: to pass the tax cuts with this coalition. We're going

168
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,839
Speaker 4: to pass immigration with this coalition. We're going to pass

169
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 4: tariffs with this coalition and together, maybe we can string

170
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:58,360
Speaker 4: together enough votes, whether they're Democrat or Republican. Obviously, most

171
00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:01,559
Speaker 4: of these things are going to be single party vote.

172
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 4: If we can string that all together, then at the

173
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:06,800
Speaker 4: end all of those bills will get packaged together and

174
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 4: put into law. The question though, is can they do

175
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:11,480
Speaker 4: that not only a procedurally, but can they make it

176
00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:17,079
Speaker 4: appropriate for budget reconciliation. That's a very, very difficult challenge, Bradley.

177
00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 1: While there's lots of enthusiasm about Republicans having majority in

178
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 1: the House and the Senate, and of course now having

179
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:25,480
Speaker 1: the White House, it seems to me that there's added

180
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 1: pressure with these majorities to get a lot of the

181
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:32,720
Speaker 1: ideas and a lot of the agenda items past. Obviously

182
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:34,760
Speaker 1: you talked about the budget, but there's also the debt

183
00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 1: ceiling coming up in the new year, and there's several

184
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:40,240
Speaker 1: other big things. Does that really add to the pressure

185
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:43,320
Speaker 1: having the majorities across the board to make sure that

186
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 1: something actually gets done?

187
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:46,280
Speaker 3: Oh?

188
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 4: I think this is the window, right. The chances are

189
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 4: that Republicans are going to get wiped out in twenty

190
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:54,440
Speaker 4: twenty six in the midterms. Why the Senate map doesn't

191
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:57,040
Speaker 4: look great and the coalition that the Republican Party uses

192
00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:01,320
Speaker 4: to win elections every four years potentially presidential election just

193
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 4: doesn't show up to special elections in midterm elections like

194
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:08,719
Speaker 4: the Democratic Party's current base does. And so you have

195
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,960
Speaker 4: eighteen months to get everything done, just like we had

196
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 4: in the first two years of the Trump administration last time.

197
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 4: And the pressure is on because last time, Paul Ryan

198
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,520
Speaker 4: and the Republican Party in the House failed to deliver

199
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:26,240
Speaker 4: what President Trump's voters and constituents were hoping they get

200
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:28,480
Speaker 4: out of the House of Representatives. Mike Johnson, I think

201
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 4: is going to be a better ally to President Donald

202
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:34,719
Speaker 4: Trump than Paul Ryan ever was. But nevertheless, it's not

203
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,240
Speaker 4: just Mike Johnson, right. He doesn't rule the conference with

204
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:40,760
Speaker 4: an iron fist like Nancy Pelosi does. A lot of

205
00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 4: different members are going to have to get little carrots

206
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:44,960
Speaker 4: or sticks dangled in front of them to get in

207
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:46,559
Speaker 4: line and pass the President's agenda.

208
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 3: Joe Biden is weighing preemptive part as we're hearing about

209
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 3: it all the time. He's about to leave office. He

210
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:56,839
Speaker 3: doesn't care and he knows that there's a lot of

211
00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 3: lawlessness in his own family. We've seen reports like this

212
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:02,960
Speaker 3: one Politico saying Biden's weighing pardons for people he believes

213
00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:06,960
Speaker 3: could be investigated by the incoming Trump administration. Deliberations are

214
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:11,560
Speaker 3: currently underway for these measures. How damaging would this move be.

215
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,080
Speaker 4: I mean, it'd be terrible, but it would be specifically

216
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 4: terrible for the Democratic Party. Joe Biden's legacy. There's not

217
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:20,720
Speaker 4: much of a legacy there. The reason that he partned

218
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:24,000
Speaker 4: his son was a big, you know bird to the

219
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:26,600
Speaker 4: Democratic Party, who will have to live with the final

220
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:30,440
Speaker 4: actions of this Democratic president going forward. He won't have

221
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 4: to suffer those political ramifications. But if he does decide

222
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:38,640
Speaker 4: to pardon members of his administration before the Republicans can

223
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:41,679
Speaker 4: act against them, I think what that sets up is

224
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:44,040
Speaker 4: a lot of folks are going to be really upset

225
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 4: that there's going to be no accountability in Washington, d c.

226
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:50,199
Speaker 4: For the failures of the last four years. Trump was

227
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:53,720
Speaker 4: elected to deliver accountability, to shake things up. We've seen

228
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:56,280
Speaker 4: that with Doge and Elon and Vivek and the like,

229
00:11:56,679 --> 00:12:00,040
Speaker 4: and Biden trying to prevent that preemptively. I think I

230
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,320
Speaker 4: think it would also tip the cap to yeah, there

231
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:06,080
Speaker 4: was something improper going on here. And if Republicans do

232
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:07,440
Speaker 4: get to the end of it, well they're not going

233
00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:09,240
Speaker 4: to be able to prosecute anyway. I don't think that

234
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,600
Speaker 4: should stop Republicans. I don't think any sort of pardon

235
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 4: should stop Republicans from at least investigating the failures of

236
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:18,160
Speaker 4: the last four years. And you know, sometimes that alleviates

237
00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:20,920
Speaker 4: some of the pressure that Republicans would feel, because you know,

238
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,800
Speaker 4: do we really want to indict a former president or

239
00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:25,679
Speaker 4: do we want to indict members of the president's family,

240
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:28,920
Speaker 4: et cetera. I mean, those are difficult political calculations. Sometimes

241
00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:33,080
Speaker 4: we think of the Gerald Ford Nixon era. We've just

242
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 4: absolved Republicans of that. So now, I mean they can

243
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:37,480
Speaker 4: go in guns blazing and try to uncover as much

244
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:39,280
Speaker 4: as they can. And I think that's what Joe Biden

245
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:39,880
Speaker 4: is afraid of.

246
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,959
Speaker 2: Radlely Devlin a really good information. You know, Donald Trump

247
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:46,720
Speaker 2: does the weave. You do the MERV this morning, So

248
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:48,640
Speaker 2: thank you, sir, I appreciate it.

249
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 3: MERV.

250
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:54,160
Speaker 2: Something new you guys all right? Coming up. Ukraine has

251
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:58,199
Speaker 2: repeatedly said they want to join NATO. Yeah, well, one

252
00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:01,000
Speaker 2: senator said that would end in disaster. We have those

253
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 2: from Marks first, though, Tennessee Senator Marshall Blackburn has a

254
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:07,120
Speaker 2: plan to drain the swamp and rein in the size

255
00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 2: of government. We're going to bring that plan to your

256
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:10,000
Speaker 2: next On American Sentris
