1
00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:03,000
Speaker 1: I got you shut Han an hour two Sean Hannity

2
00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:04,880
Speaker 1: Show told for you. It's eight hundred and ninety four

3
00:00:04,920 --> 00:00:07,640
Speaker 1: one Sean, if you want to be a part of

4
00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:11,600
Speaker 1: the program. I guess the big story as relates to

5
00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:16,079
Speaker 1: the law fair, the unequal justice under the law that

6
00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:20,560
Speaker 1: we live through, the weaponized Department of Justice under Joe

7
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:26,280
Speaker 1: Biden and politicized Department of Justice under Joe Biden just continues.

8
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:29,360
Speaker 1: I mean, it's nothing but an outright circus in the

9
00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:34,080
Speaker 1: court today with Stormy Daniels and our testimony. Anyway, Greg

10
00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:37,360
Speaker 1: Jared is with US Fox News legal analyst, bestselling author.

11
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:40,720
Speaker 1: What do you think the odds are that the DA's

12
00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:44,360
Speaker 1: office in New York City probably has a ton of

13
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:47,080
Speaker 1: NDA agreements that they've signed over the years.

14
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:57,240
Speaker 2: Oh, I'm sure they have. Look law firms, corporations. Congress, Congress,

15
00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:01,360
Speaker 2: you'll recall put together an i'm a fund of money

16
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 2: to pay off people in exchange for non disclosure agreements,

17
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:10,760
Speaker 2: and they hit it for years and years. You know,

18
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:15,959
Speaker 2: the indictment accuses Trump of falsifying business records. Forget that

19
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:19,280
Speaker 2: there was nothing fault about them. These were legal payments

20
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 2: in exchange for a legal document. A non disclosure agreement

21
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 2: negotiated by two lawyers booked his legal expenses. Well, that's

22
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 2: what they were. So the primary charges in the indictment

23
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:40,119
Speaker 2: are unprovable. I think, how does Stormy Daniels fit in? Well,

24
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:44,479
Speaker 2: she doesn't. She was never privy to the internal accounting

25
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 2: of the payments she received from Michael Cohen. She adds

26
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 2: nothing to this case except the smear tromp with you know,

27
00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 2: humiliating stories about her fleeting encounter with him, which by

28
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 2: the way, is questionable, you know Trump.

29
00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 1: Well, by the way, we have her on the record

30
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,400
Speaker 1: saying in two thousand, I think six, two thousand and age,

31
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 1: she goes through all the years, twenty twelve, twenty sixteen,

32
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:16,520
Speaker 1: and then in writing twenty eighteen January of twenty eighteen

33
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 1: saying it never happened. I never received any hush money.

34
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 1: The money that she got, she said, was not quote

35
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 1: hush money, which by the way, would not even be

36
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 1: illegal if it was.

37
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 2: That's right, you know, she, as you point out, in

38
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:35,880
Speaker 2: writing in twenty eighteen, she reverses course and recants her

39
00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 2: repudiation and that no affair ever happened. You know, I'm

40
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 2: sure that will be brought up and explored on cross examination.

41
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 2: And you know Daniels has multiple motives to lie advancing

42
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 2: her career, trying to justify the cash she pocketed in

43
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 2: what looks very much like a blackmail scheme in which

44
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 2: Trump is the victim. And she lost her quick sotic

45
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 2: defamation lawsuit against Trump and the court's order her to

46
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:12,240
Speaker 2: pay six hundred thousand dollars to Trump in legal fees,

47
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:16,680
Speaker 2: a sum that she still refuses to pay. She tweeted

48
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 2: at one point in time, I will go to jail

49
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 2: before I pay a penny. Well, in my judgment, that's

50
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:23,799
Speaker 2: pretty good idea.

51
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:27,519
Speaker 1: All right, So we have lots of basically unpack here.

52
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 1: You're an attorney, Greg, Greg, your very good attorney. Can

53
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,200
Speaker 1: you please tell me what the second charge is against

54
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 1: Donald Trump? Do you know what that is about? I

55
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 1: know we have a bookkeeping error that would have been

56
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 1: a misdemeanor whose statute of limitations have passed. What is

57
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 1: he being charged with? Can you tell me?

58
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 2: Well, drawing from my favorite line in Shakespeare in Love,

59
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 2: it's a mystery. Nobody really knows.

60
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 3: Now.

61
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 2: We heard during opening statements from the prosecution fraud, conspiracy. Well,

62
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 2: take a look at the indictment that fraud and conspiracy

63
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 2: or nowhere any indictment they have alleged, you know, indirectly

64
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 2: that he violated campaign finance laws. But wait a minute.

65
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:21,279
Speaker 2: The federal government has exclusive authority over campaign finance violations.

66
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:26,479
Speaker 2: The FEC handles it civilly, the Department of Justice handles

67
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 2: it criminally. Bragg has, without authority, commandeered a federal law

68
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 2: and or statute over which he has no jurisdiction. Any

69
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 2: knowledgeable and competent and fair judge would have tossed the

70
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:50,840
Speaker 2: case out on that basis alone. But instead, you know,

71
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 2: Trump stuck with Juan Marsham, who is allowing all kinds

72
00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 2: of irrelevant information. And it's prejudicial. If you just look

73
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,919
Speaker 2: at the rules of court criminal procedure in New York

74
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:12,719
Speaker 2: four point zero six exclusion of relevant evidence. It must

75
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 2: be excluded if its probative value is outweighed by the

76
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:23,920
Speaker 2: danger that its admission would create undue prejudice to the defendant. Well,

77
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:28,080
Speaker 2: that's exactly what's happening. So much of this, even Stormy

78
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:32,800
Speaker 2: Daniel's testimony, which is immaterial because the payments have already

79
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 2: been introduced through other witnesses. The access Hollywood tape. All

80
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:43,719
Speaker 2: of that is highly prejudicial, and frankly, it's immaterial and irrelevant.

81
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,720
Speaker 1: I think the words immaterial and irrelevant really hit home here.

82
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 1: But let's go back and start with the opening argument.

83
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 1: You're right, they talked about a conspiracy again, things that

84
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,800
Speaker 1: Donald Trump hasn't even been charged with. All we really

85
00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:00,880
Speaker 1: know is the allegation about is about a book keeping error.

86
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:06,839
Speaker 1: Was this a somehow an in kind campaign donation, which

87
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,920
Speaker 1: would be a misdemeanor under New York state law, whose

88
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:14,680
Speaker 1: statute limitations have long since passed. And then they reach

89
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:19,799
Speaker 1: into the federal criminal Code and pull out some convoluted,

90
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:24,720
Speaker 1: unprecedented legal theory that had never been tried before. And

91
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:28,240
Speaker 1: then you've got a former fundraiser, the third highest ranking

92
00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:31,679
Speaker 1: official at the Justice Department, you know, sent over leaving

93
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:36,040
Speaker 1: his prestigious position there to run the case for Alvin Bragg,

94
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:40,600
Speaker 1: which I think in and of itself is prejudicial. And

95
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 1: I would add, of course, then we have the issue

96
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:46,560
Speaker 1: of a refusal a judge that donated to Biden, a

97
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:51,240
Speaker 1: judge who's family, according to reports, may benefit financially from

98
00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:54,279
Speaker 1: this case based on the work of the judge's daughter.

99
00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 1: Then we have the whole issue of the gag order,

100
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 1: which doesn't exist. For example, for the prosecution's chief witness,

101
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:07,360
Speaker 1: Michael Cohene, who's giving commentary on the case apparently on

102
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 1: TikTok and asking for quote gifts from viewers. Does that

103
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:15,600
Speaker 1: sound like, you know, a fair trial to you, because

104
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 1: it doesn't sound that fair to me.

105
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 2: No, it's not a fair trial. The gag order is

106
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 2: blatantly unconstitutional or prior restraint on free speech. It's okay

107
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 2: for Michael Cohen to go on social media and make money,

108
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:36,760
Speaker 2: by the way, trashing Trump and giving commentary about the trial,

109
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:40,680
Speaker 2: condemning him as a criminal, but Trump is gagged.

110
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 1: From responding well, and the judge was very firm and

111
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:48,960
Speaker 1: saying that he's going to send him to jail if

112
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,280
Speaker 1: he violates the gag order again. And then we have

113
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 1: people being questioned left and right. I saw the mayor

114
00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 1: of New York question today, well, is Riker's Island prepared

115
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,200
Speaker 1: to take Donald Trump in as a prisoner. Yeah, I

116
00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 1: guess that's one way Donald Trump won't have to sit

117
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 1: in the courtroom. But I can tell you a story

118
00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,560
Speaker 1: after story about violent criminals arrested in New York and

119
00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:11,120
Speaker 1: they're out on the streets and seconds in Alvin Bragg's

120
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:12,120
Speaker 1: New York City.

121
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:12,760
Speaker 4: Yeah.

122
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 2: Well, look, Alvin Bragg campaigned, as Letitia James did, on

123
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:21,840
Speaker 2: the promise to nail Trump. That's what he has done.

124
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 2: He has contorted the law, he has mangled the facts,

125
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:30,560
Speaker 2: and he has brought an utterly meritless, almost laughable case

126
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 2: to you know, fulfill his promised to voters. You brought

127
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:42,600
Speaker 2: up the issue of whether this constitutes a campaign contribution

128
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,320
Speaker 2: and therefore a violation of the law. It does not.

129
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:49,840
Speaker 2: And Hope Hicks, his former communications director, was on the

130
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 2: witness stand, completely undermining the prosecution's theory. She told the

131
00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 2: jury that Trump's motive for dealing with Stormy Daniels suppressing

132
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 2: glacious story was to protect his wife, not the campaign.

133
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:10,960
Speaker 2: That completely contradicts Bragg's central theory that Trump's intent was

134
00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 2: to help his election and he therefore violated campaign laws.

135
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:20,319
Speaker 2: The Feds, as I mentioned, have exclusive authority. They already

136
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:25,959
Speaker 2: investigated the payment to Stormy Daniels, and they concluded this

137
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:31,480
Speaker 2: does not constitute a campaign donation. No crime was committed,

138
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 2: you know, But Bragg decided that for political reasons, he

139
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:40,240
Speaker 2: didn't care whether it's a legal or he is bound

140
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 2: and determined to try to convict Trump to interfere in

141
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:48,400
Speaker 2: a presidential election to the benefit of Joe Biden.

142
00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 1: All right, But if you're on the jury, if you're

143
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 1: judging the jury and the judges allowing all of this

144
00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:56,840
Speaker 1: in which I think you know, Muddy's the waters in

145
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 1: so many different ways, and nobody's really explained what the

146
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:04,080
Speaker 1: charge is is, how do you see this playing out?

147
00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:07,040
Speaker 1: What would you recommend to Trump's attorneys in terms of

148
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:10,959
Speaker 1: how to approach this case as it relates to the law.

149
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:15,600
Speaker 1: To get either a not guilty verdict or a hungury, they.

150
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 2: Have to keep it very very simple, where is the crime?

151
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:23,720
Speaker 2: And actually, to some extent they did that yesterday with

152
00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:28,320
Speaker 2: the accountant on the witness stand who helped co and

153
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 2: arrange for the payments and reimbursements. And the very simple

154
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:37,440
Speaker 2: direct question was is Michael Cohen a lawyer? Answer yes,

155
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:45,880
Speaker 2: So these payments would then be legal expenses, would they not? Yes?

156
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:50,960
Speaker 2: They would. Now that completely blows a hole in all

157
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:56,120
Speaker 2: thirty four charges of fultifying business records because, as I mentioned,

158
00:10:56,440 --> 00:11:00,840
Speaker 2: how else are you going to call these things negotiating?

159
00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:04,120
Speaker 1: But how does the jury put aside the salacious nature

160
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:08,679
Speaker 1: of the testimony for example of Stormy Daniels or David Pecker.

161
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,559
Speaker 1: And you know what the whole catch and kill operation

162
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:14,960
Speaker 1: is that most people probably have never heard of before.

163
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:19,720
Speaker 2: You know, this is an effort by Bragg to slime

164
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:24,839
Speaker 2: Trump with salacious, titillating stories, to try to portray him

165
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:26,960
Speaker 2: as a bad guy. So you should convict him even

166
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:30,079
Speaker 2: though he didn't commit any crimes. So you know, it's

167
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:34,199
Speaker 2: a charade, and it's very difficult to convince jurors if

168
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:38,880
Speaker 2: you're the defense, to see through the sham of the

169
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:43,240
Speaker 2: indictment and the charges. Here. One of the things I

170
00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:47,280
Speaker 2: would do on cross examination with story Daniels is Jerry

171
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:49,600
Speaker 2: said she didn't care about the money, She just wanted

172
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 2: to get the story out. Really, then why did you

173
00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 2: and your lawyer pressure Trump and Michael Cohen into paying

174
00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:02,880
Speaker 2: her for her silence if you really wanted the story

175
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:06,720
Speaker 2: to get out? So I don't know how she could

176
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:09,760
Speaker 2: weeedle out of that, but she's a pretty good talker,

177
00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:12,520
Speaker 2: according to our reporter in the courtroom.

178
00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 1: As you followed this, And if they do keep it simple,

179
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,800
Speaker 1: what was your read on the jury during jury selection?

180
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,280
Speaker 1: I mean they have two lawyers on the jury. That

181
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:24,640
Speaker 1: was an interesting selection from my point of view. But

182
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 1: you're in a venue where nine out of ten voters

183
00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:30,920
Speaker 1: didn't vote for Donald Trump, and you have a judge

184
00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:34,640
Speaker 1: that is obviously that should have recused himself, of my view,

185
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,360
Speaker 1: for a variety of reasons, not the least of which

186
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 1: is he donated to Donald Trump's opponent in twenty twenty,

187
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:45,000
Speaker 1: Joe Biden. And I sense in pretty much every ruling

188
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:47,440
Speaker 1: that this judge is just just has it in for

189
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 1: Donald Trump. The jury's going to pick up on that too.

190
00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:54,679
Speaker 2: Oh absolutely. And you know, the judges have great influence

191
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:58,960
Speaker 2: over jurors. When they make the rulings in front of jurors,

192
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:02,199
Speaker 2: you know, they take a cue from the judge. You know,

193
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:06,080
Speaker 2: he's on an elevated bench of authority with a black robe.

194
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 2: But more importantly, he dictates the jury instructions. A fair

195
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:16,040
Speaker 2: judge in the jury instructions would explain to these jurors

196
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 2: that non disclosure agreements are not a crime. Suppressing stories

197
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 2: is not a crime. Reimbursing it is.

198
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:27,160
Speaker 4: Not a crime.

199
00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:31,760
Speaker 2: But I fear that this judge will not do that.

200
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,280
Speaker 2: If I'm the defense. You ask about the jurors. I

201
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:38,480
Speaker 2: have to assume that these jurors lied, that they do

202
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:45,360
Speaker 2: have a political and personal agenda against Donald Trump, that

203
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:50,240
Speaker 2: they likely wanted to get on the case to convict.

204
00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 2: And you know, I frankly think putting two of the

205
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:56,760
Speaker 2: lawyers who were normally always excluded from juries putting it

206
00:13:56,800 --> 00:14:00,280
Speaker 2: on there was a hail mary by the defense. I'm

207
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 2: hoping that these guys know the law and they will

208
00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:08,080
Speaker 2: see that the law doesn't support Alvin Bragg's case.

209
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:12,520
Speaker 1: Last question, if there is a guilty verdict, do you

210
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 1: foresee an expedited appeal considering the impact this has on

211
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,000
Speaker 1: the election in one hundred and eighty one days real quick?

212
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:23,280
Speaker 2: Well, I'd ask for it, but I'm not sure given

213
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 2: the makeup of the appellate courts in New York, you'll

214
00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:29,320
Speaker 2: get it. But I'm confident that in the end, the

215
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:35,200
Speaker 2: violations by this judge are so egregious, The manipulation of

216
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:40,200
Speaker 2: the law by Alvin Bragg is so obvious and egregious

217
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:42,680
Speaker 2: that you know, I think this will be overturned on

218
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 2: appeal in the event of a conviction. But all you

219
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:48,640
Speaker 2: need is one juror to hang this up, and that

220
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:49,640
Speaker 2: could still.

221
00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:52,800
Speaker 1: Happen all right, Greg Jarrett, we appreciate you as always.

222
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:55,400
Speaker 1: Thank you. Eight hundred ninety four. One show is on

223

224
00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 1: If you own a gun, this is a wake up call.

225
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:04,280
Speaker 1: On a regular morning, a US Army vet, his name

226
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:06,640
Speaker 1: was Brian, was attacked by by a man with a

227
00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 1: steel pipe while with his family. Despite warnings, Brian was

228
00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:15,840
Speaker 1: forced to defend himself with his firearm, and in today's

229
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 1: twisted America, he was the one charge with first degree

230
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 1: murder and he was the one jailed. Now, Brian remembered

231
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 1: that his United States Concealed Carry Association membership included self

232
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:33,440
Speaker 1: defense liability insurance. He reached out to the USCCA and

233
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 1: was immediately connected with a highly skilled legal team who

234
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:40,160
Speaker 1: got the charges dropped and saved him from what would

235
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:43,720
Speaker 1: be financial ruin and his life route. That's why I

236
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:47,120
Speaker 1: have been a member of the USCCA for nine years.

237

273
00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:50,399
Speaker 1: I want to just tell you Marshall Blackburn, the Senator

274
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:53,320
Speaker 1: from Tennessee, will join us in a second to discuss

275
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:57,560
Speaker 1: the fundraiser she attended for President Trump this weekend, and

276
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:02,600
Speaker 1: more importantly, legislation that our office is passing this week

277
00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:06,959
Speaker 1: on behalf of Children, and it's to protect your kids online.

278
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:09,960
Speaker 1: It will be signed into law this week, and the

279
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:13,960
Speaker 1: Report Act, as they call it, will legally require big

280
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:19,600
Speaker 1: tech companies to report crimes against children involving sex trafficking, grooming,

281
00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:23,159
Speaker 1: and the enticement of children for sexual acts to the

282
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:27,639
Speaker 1: National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. Now, currently, criminal

283
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:33,600
Speaker 1: law only requires companies to report child's sexual abuse materials.

284
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:35,960
Speaker 1: That doesn't go far enough anyway. Here to explain it

285
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:39,240
Speaker 1: before we get to your calls is Senator Marshall Blackburn. Hey, Senator,

286
00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:39,639
Speaker 1: how are you.

287
00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:43,040
Speaker 3: I am doing well, Shawn, Thanks so much for having

288
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:43,399
Speaker 3: me on.

289
00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:48,280
Speaker 1: The scary thing is is parents they don't know what

290
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:51,919
Speaker 1: their kids are seeing, and the kids are being targeted

291
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:54,879
Speaker 1: online left or right. I actually know a group of

292
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:58,760
Speaker 1: parents that have joined together and they actually all agreed

293
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:01,439
Speaker 1: that they're not going to allow their kids online or

294
00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:06,440
Speaker 1: to have cell phones unless it's an emergency cell phone

295
00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:11,800
Speaker 1: with great limitations until they're like fifteen or sixteen years old.

296
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:13,639
Speaker 1: They said they've had it. They don't want their kids

297
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 1: being targeted this way.

298
00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:19,760
Speaker 3: And those are smart parents to do that, because what

299
00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:23,359
Speaker 3: we have learned in hearing after hearing and talking to

300
00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:29,000
Speaker 3: whistleblowers is that these social media companies know exactly what

301
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:33,720
Speaker 3: is going on and shown there are laws in the

302
00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:37,480
Speaker 3: physical space that say you can't take a child into

303
00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:42,280
Speaker 3: a strip club You can't sell alcohol or tobacco, or

304
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:47,720
Speaker 3: vapes or pornographic magazines to a child, but in the

305
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:51,560
Speaker 3: virtual space, they are exposed to this every single day.

306
00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:56,040
Speaker 3: And what we are doing is through the Report Act,

307
00:19:56,200 --> 00:20:01,760
Speaker 3: we are beefing up the ability to tech children by

308
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:06,080
Speaker 3: allowing the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children to

309
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:11,560
Speaker 3: hold the information longer and be able to get these

310
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:17,000
Speaker 3: pedophiles and these predators into court. They also will be

311
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:21,640
Speaker 3: able to transfer this information over the cloud. Right now,

312
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,920
Speaker 3: they're having to either print it all or they're having

313
00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 3: to put it on the sum drive and transfer it

314
00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:31,080
Speaker 3: so that it can be used as evidence in court.

315
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 3: And requiring these social media platforms mandating that when they

316
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:44,199
Speaker 3: have this pedophile and whether it's c SAM, pornography, abuse,

317
00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:51,119
Speaker 3: or exploitative material, they must report that. And that puts

318
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:54,600
Speaker 3: that burden on that social media company and they're going

319
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:56,520
Speaker 3: to have to do it. They're going to have to

320
00:20:56,600 --> 00:21:01,240
Speaker 3: begin to police these networks and pull this information out

321
00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:03,919
Speaker 3: and get it to nick make in a timely manner.

322
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:07,160
Speaker 1: Let me ask you this, I was kind of shocked

323
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:09,359
Speaker 1: you put up a post that said five to six

324
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:13,040
Speaker 1: hundred children under the age of eighteen go missing. Every

325
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 1: single month in your great state of Tennessee. I was

326
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:16,919
Speaker 1: shocked by that number.

327
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:21,359
Speaker 3: That's exactly right. Is that's the number that we have

328
00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:26,600
Speaker 3: from the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation. These are runaways. These

329
00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:30,920
Speaker 3: are children that go missing for a period of time.

330
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:34,960
Speaker 3: Some of them are found, some of them remain missing.

331
00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:38,720
Speaker 3: But that is the number. And being able to get

332
00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:45,800
Speaker 3: this information is important in finding these children. And I

333
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:52,320
Speaker 3: recently did an event with NFL alums and they are

334
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:57,000
Speaker 3: making it their goal this year during the football season

335
00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:01,280
Speaker 3: to get information to parents of this. They know how

336
00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 3: to pull DNA on their child, so they've got that

337
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:09,640
Speaker 3: ready for law enforcement if an unfortunate occurrence were to

338
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:13,239
Speaker 3: happen in their family and in their lives. Because we

339
00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:19,240
Speaker 3: should be protecting children. Nick Nick has thousands of cases

340
00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:22,120
Speaker 3: that they have not had the opportunity to follow up

341
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:26,240
Speaker 3: on or to get into court. So what we need

342
00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:30,400
Speaker 3: to do with all these millions of images that are

343
00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:34,880
Speaker 3: coming to nick Nick every year. We need to get

344
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:39,000
Speaker 3: these predators off the web. We need to get them

345
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:41,600
Speaker 3: out of our communities, and we need to get them

346
00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 3: prosecuted and locked up.

347
00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:48,359
Speaker 1: I've plawed your hard work here and the fact that

348
00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:52,359
Speaker 1: you're taking this seriously because it needs to be taken seriously.

349
00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:55,320
Speaker 1: People have no idea. I've interviewed so many people over

350
00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:59,960
Speaker 1: the years about sex trafficking and human trafficking and children

351
00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 1: and what they are subjected to online. It really does

352
00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:07,679
Speaker 1: shock the conscience. Anyway, Senator of Marshall Blackburn, Tennessee, thank you.

353
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:09,159
Speaker 1: We appreciate you being with us.

354
00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:10,280
Speaker 3: Good to be with you.

355
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:14,080
Speaker 1: Thanks eight hundred nine to four one, Sean, if you

356
00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:16,359
Speaker 1: want to be a part of the program, Jim in

357
00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:18,800
Speaker 1: the Free State of Texas, Sir, how are you glad

358
00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:19,280
Speaker 1: you called?

359
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:22,840
Speaker 4: Hey? I'm doing fantastic, Sean, and thanks for taking my call.

360
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:27,560
Speaker 4: You know, everybody knows the Democratics the Democrats playbook. We've

361
00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:30,400
Speaker 4: been talking about it for months. Keep Trump off off

362
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:34,640
Speaker 4: the campaign trail. Last thing I saw Wisconsin is basically

363
00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 4: tied Pennsylvania, Arizona. The president is barely up. I believe

364
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:44,080
Speaker 4: he needs to get his vice presidential nominee selected. He

365
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:45,800
Speaker 4: needs to get him out there. He needs to get

366
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,920
Speaker 4: him on the campaign trail to get his message out

367
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,840
Speaker 4: while he's tied up in court. This is going to

368
00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:56,200
Speaker 4: be the most important vice presidential nominee ever because he

369
00:23:56,240 --> 00:24:01,960
Speaker 4: will be or she will be the presumptive presidential nominee

370
00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 4: in four years.

371
00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:06,920
Speaker 1: Personal look, well, I mean maybe maybe not. I mean

372
00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:11,359
Speaker 1: probably you're right. I mean I would think so. But

373
00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:14,040
Speaker 1: I got to tell you this, and I think this

374
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:16,679
Speaker 1: is very very important. Is you know, we do have

375
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:18,479
Speaker 1: a deep bench. There are a lot of good people.

376
00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:21,520
Speaker 1: The names that I keep hearing the most are names

377
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 1: that you know, Senator Tim Scott, we hear about Marco

378
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:28,560
Speaker 1: Rubio's name has come up quite a bit. We've heard.

379
00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:32,000
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if this this dog issue in Christy

380
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:35,359
Speaker 1: Noman's book will impact President Trump's decision, but I know

381
00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:37,560
Speaker 1: her name had been mentioned quite a bit. The North

382
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,840
Speaker 1: Dakota Governor burgham Is, his name has been mentioned a lot. JD.

383
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:44,280
Speaker 1: Vance's name has been mentioned a lot. If I'm making

384
00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:48,600
Speaker 1: that selection, I'd be I'd be asking who brings the

385
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:51,560
Speaker 1: most to the ticket and who is best qualified to

386
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:55,320
Speaker 1: take over if God forbid something happens, and That's what

387
00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:57,159
Speaker 1: I'd be looking for. I do have my I do

388
00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,600
Speaker 1: have my favorites, but I'll keep that to myself. There's

389
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 1: no difference. Does it make I want? You know it's

390
00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:04,920
Speaker 1: going to be President Trump's decision and his alone.

391
00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:07,199
Speaker 4: And he but he's gotta he's gotta make it. And

392
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:10,080
Speaker 4: I think Tim Scott would be a fantastic choice. The

393
00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:13,360
Speaker 4: problem with Christy Noman she didn't eat the dog. If

394
00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:15,600
Speaker 4: she'd eaten the dog as Obama did, everything would have

395
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:16,280
Speaker 4: been just fine.

396
00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,600
Speaker 1: Eat the dog as Obama did. What the hell are

397
00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:20,359
Speaker 1: you talking about?

398
00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:23,359
Speaker 4: The story when Obama was running for president where that

399
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:26,399
Speaker 4: they had eaten dog and well it was part of

400
00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:29,560
Speaker 4: his culture. You know, we hate dogs.

401
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:32,600
Speaker 1: I thought, I did the deepest dive of Obama. Linda,

402
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:35,640
Speaker 1: do you remember that? Because I don't remember anything remotely

403
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:36,240
Speaker 1: sounding like that.

404
00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:37,000
Speaker 5: He does.

405
00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:39,960
Speaker 2: He actually talks about it in Dreams for My Father,

406
00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:41,440
Speaker 2: in his book, he talked about it.

407
00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:44,240
Speaker 1: Maybe I have a vague I don't know what ever,

408
00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:47,920
Speaker 1: I don't who knows, who cares? Uh? But I appreciate.

409
00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:50,879
Speaker 1: I appreciate the call. Eight hundred and nine four one,

410
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:52,960
Speaker 1: Shawn is on number. If you want to be a part.

411
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:57,720
Speaker 1: Actually we have a cut of it. Okay, play it

412
00:25:57,840 --> 00:25:58,320
Speaker 1: with Lolo.

413
00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:01,280
Speaker 5: I had learned how to eat small green raw with dinner,

414
00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:03,720
Speaker 5: plenty of rice, and away from the dinner table, I

415
00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:07,199
Speaker 5: was introduced to dog meat, tough snake meat tougher and

416
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:08,880
Speaker 5: roasted grasshopper crunchy.

417
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:10,800
Speaker 3: I'm just saying, I.

418
00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:13,640
Speaker 5: Know sometimes the audiences to hear it, you know, from

419
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:14,560
Speaker 5: the horse's mouth.

420
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:18,960
Speaker 1: I honestly, with all the vetting I did of Obama,

421
00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:21,960
Speaker 1: I would have I would think I would remember that

422
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:24,640
Speaker 1: because I can tell you everything you want to know

423
00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:29,119
Speaker 1: about about is radicalism. And I read the one that

424
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:30,880
Speaker 1: was tasked with reading the books.

425
00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:32,040
Speaker 2: That was my job.

426
00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:36,240
Speaker 1: If you that's true, painful, painful task, Well I give

427
00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:39,280
