He pled guilty is going to 28 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:41,760 Speaker 2: avoid the death penalty. Uh, but he didn't have to 29 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 2: really do anything or give any explanation to the families, 30 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 2: nor did the families have any say in whether or 31 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 2: not they supported this. A lot of the families of 32 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 2: these these young college kids are are frankly outraged and disgusted. 33 00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 4: Uh. 34 00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 2: These families want and need closure, they really do, and 35 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 2: they deserve it. And I think the prosecutors before they 36 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 2: made that deal, they should have included some explanation. I mean, 37 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:10,120 Speaker 2: if you watch the facts of this case, and I 38 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:13,240 Speaker 2: know them pretty well, kind of inside and out. Unfortunately, 39 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 2: I mean, this guy was stalking these young college kids 40 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 2: for a long time, late at night, driving and past 41 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 2: their house, driving in the driveway of the house. I mean, 42 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 2: just very creepy and bizarre. And it ends up in 43 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:31,360 Speaker 2: the murder of four kids. And we have all of 44 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 2: this violence that takes place, you know, when we talk 45 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 2: about statistics, and I ran all throughout the twenty twenty 46 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:43,360 Speaker 2: four election the names of people that were murdered brutally 47 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 2: by Biden Harrise, the illegals, the people that were raped 48 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 2: by Biden Harris, the illegals, other victims of violent crime, 49 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 2: Biden Harris illegals, never mind again known terrorist plotting, planning, scheming, 50 00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 2: never mind cartel members, never mind drug dealers on other island, criminals, 51 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 2: And it's very upsetting, you know. I used to ask 52 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 2: all the time, Barack Obama's hometown was Chicago. Violence throughout 53 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:13,600 Speaker 2: his entire eight years as president was prevalent in Chicago. 54 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 2: We went back and looked. We could only find two times, 55 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 2: maybe three, that he mentioned the violence in Chicago, never 56 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 2: lifted a finger to stop it. And then it really 57 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:26,639 Speaker 2: came home personally for me when a very dear friend 58 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 2: of mine I'm going to introduce to you in a second. 59 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 2: You know him. He is a fellow Fox employee, Giano Caldwell. 60 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 2: It was June twenty fourth, It was twenty twenty two, 61 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 2: and his eighteen year old brother, innocent brother, was murdered. 62 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 2: He was just standing with his friends on the South 63 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 2: side of Chicago on a street. Black suv pulls up 64 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 2: and several unidentified men open fire. Fifty shellcasings later found 65 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:57,119 Speaker 2: at the sea. Three in the crowd rushed to the hospital. 66 00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 2: Two survived, not his brother. And it just is heartbreaking 67 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 2: to me. But out of this tragedy. I have, you know, 68 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 2: stayed in touch with Gano and I've watched him turn 69 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 2: tragedy into you know, an incredible passion and cause in 70 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 2: his life, as he has now developed the Caldwell Institute 71 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,360 Speaker 2: for Public Safety. He just authored a brand new book. 72 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 2: It just came out. It's on We'll put it up 73 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:27,160 Speaker 2: on Hannity dot Comments, on Amazon dot com, and it's 74 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 2: in bookstores around the country. It's called The Day My 75 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:34,280 Speaker 2: Brother was Murdered, My Journey through America's violent crime crisis. 76 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 2: And when you hear his story and he writes about it, 77 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 2: it'll break your heart because nobody cared. And I can't 78 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 2: tell you how many conversations we had. I'm like, well, 79 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 2: didn't you talk to the detectives? Yeah, what they say 80 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 2: they can't tell you. They know who did it, but 81 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 2: they're not going to do anything about it. Like these 82 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:55,719 Speaker 2: conversations that we had, you can't even imagine how bad 83 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 2: the system is and how little they care about the 84 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:04,160 Speaker 2: family in the aftermath of such horrific evil and such 85 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 2: a tragedy.

You're telling me I'm old when 92 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 2: you say that. 93 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,719 Speaker 4: No, No, you're my mentor. You're my big brother. And 94 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,160 Speaker 4: I got to tell you you have been one of 95 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 4: the biggest inspirations in my life. And I really do, 96 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 4: truly mean that. After my brother was murdered, we would 97 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 4: talk multiple times a week. What's going on with the investigation, 98 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 4: how's your family doing? And you were really and truly 99 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 4: an angel. I know you may not consider yourself and 100 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 4: angel generally speaking. 101 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:41,800 Speaker 2: Oh by the way, anyone that knows me knows that's 102 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 2: not true. We'll go ahead. 103 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 4: Well, no, no, no, it really is true, Sean. And 104 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 4: people around the country have said similar things, Even people 105 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,839 Speaker 4: who don't like you politically have said, Sean is a 106 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 4: great guy. And I know that you're a fantastic person. 107 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 4: You're a big brother, and you're a mentor and I 108 00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:00,719 Speaker 4: can't thank you enough for your support over the years. 109 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 2: Well, I'm just proud of you. And we've had this 110 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 2: discussion privately, and why not bring the publicly. You know 111 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,720 Speaker 2: a lot of people when something like this happens, they 112 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:14,359 Speaker 2: just crumble and fall apart. You did the opposite. You 113 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:16,839 Speaker 2: turned it into action. And I'm going to tell people 114 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:18,599 Speaker 2: what you did and if you if you don't want 115 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 2: me to stop me at any point. You immediately took 116 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:25,679 Speaker 2: charge of your family, You took your savings, You moved 117 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 2: your family out of Chicago. Don't I won't give out 118 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 2: the location. You moved them to a much safer place. 119 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:35,159 Speaker 2: And you just said I'm not letting this happen again 120 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 2: and the pain I'm going through, I'm not going to 121 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 2: let other families go through it if I can avoid it. 122 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:43,920 Speaker 2: And then you partnered with John Walsh, and then you're 123 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 2: doing a number of projects to bring awareness to this 124 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 2: and stop this madness. I mean, I mean, you've inspired 125 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 2: me every step of the way because you're You're relentless, 126 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:55,039 Speaker 2: You're unrelenting. 127 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:57,919 Speaker 4: And as you mentioned all of that, one of the 128 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:00,599 Speaker 4: things I cannot not mention it is the fact that 129 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 4: I met John wallsh through you. And you know I 130 00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 4: wrote this book the day my brother was murdered, My 131 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 4: journey through America's violent crime crisis, because I simply felt 132 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 4: like I had no choice. As you mentioned on June 133 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 4: twenty fourth, twenty twenty two, my life changed forever when 134 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 4: my innocent teenage baby brother, Christian was murdered on the 135 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 4: South side of Chicago. He wasn't the target, but it happened, 136 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,280 Speaker 4: and it happens to so many families, whether they be 137 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 4: in Chicago or across the country. So what did I do? 138 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 4: Because I needed to do something about it if that 139 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 4: was the only way that I can quote unquote have 140 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 4: a grieving moment, because I never fully dipped into the 141 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 4: grieving process, because I've been focusing on action. What can 142 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 4: I do to stop this from happening in our country? 143 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 4: And I created the Caldwell Institute for Public Safety at 144 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 4: Calwell Institute dot org. I encourage people to support our 145 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 4: efforts there. And when I wrote this book, I talked 146 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 4: about it with nine families who experienced the same tragedy, 147 00:07:56,280 --> 00:08:00,200 Speaker 4: including my own, people like James from Philadelphia. He was 148 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 4: an army veteran who had PTSD and who would often 149 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 4: go to a park at one and two in the 150 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 4: morning because he couldn't sleep. And on June twenty fourth, 151 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 4: he went to the same park that he would go 152 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 4: to every week and there were a group of children there. 153 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 4: I'm talking about ten eleven years old and some teenagers, 154 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 4: and he said to them, what are you all doing 155 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:21,400 Speaker 4: out here this late? They took a traffic cone and 156 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 4: they beat him to death. Or people like Catherine. Catherine 157 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 4: was a mother, grandmother, sixty four year old wife, chemical engineer, 158 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 4: going home on June twenty fourth when a shootout took 159 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 4: place on a freeway in Texas. She was hit after 160 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 4: a drug deal had went bad. Both the drug dealer 161 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:41,959 Speaker 4: and a drug buyer was trying to rip each other 162 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 4: off and she became collateral damage. Or talk about baby 163 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 4: Cecilia six months old or rather five months four days 164 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 4: from six months old in Chicago. She's in the car 165 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 4: with her parents on June twenty fourth, parents in the 166 00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:57,559 Speaker 4: front seat, brother three years old in the back. They 167 00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 4: thought they hear fireworks. Cecilias, did we know how bad 168 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 4: it is? Sean? We've been knowing how bad it is. 169 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:06,840 Speaker 4: We talked about it time and time again. But I 170 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 4: wanted to figure out how can we solve this? So 171 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,600 Speaker 4: I talk to people like you, the Great Sean Hannity, 172 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 4: You're fully through this book is one of the experts 173 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 4: on here telling me how we should process this, how 174 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:20,320 Speaker 4: we should move forward. People like John Walsh, people like 175 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 4: doctor Drew on the mental health challenges in our country 176 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:27,560 Speaker 4: and his contributions to crime faith leaders, educators, because we 177 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 4: have to do something about the violent crime crisis in 178 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,680 Speaker 4: our country. And now this has become fully a part 179 00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:35,560 Speaker 4: of my brother's legacy and my very own. 180 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 2: You know, when John wallsh lost his son Adam. Over 181 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 2: the years I've known John, I haven't talked to him 182 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 2: in a while, but I've always thought the world of him. 183 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:49,560 Speaker 2: And he took this tragedy in his life and he 184 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:52,439 Speaker 2: turned it into a cause the way you're doing. And 185 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,960 Speaker 2: I don't know if I would have the strength to 186 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 2: do it. And I consider myself a pretty strong individual, 187 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 2: but I don't think there's anything more deflating in life 188 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 2: and difficult in life and challenging in life than losing 189 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 2: loved ones like this. I mean, your younger brother was 190 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:15,560 Speaker 2: like he was like your own It was like your 191 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:18,960 Speaker 2: own son. You love this And when you would describe 192 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:24,160 Speaker 2: to me, he'll never go to college, he'll never get married. 193 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 2: You know, you gave me a whole you would give 194 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:29,679 Speaker 2: a whole list. I'm like, man that hits you hard, 195 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 2: that hits you right in your solar plexus. It is 196 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:35,680 Speaker 2: like a gut punch of no, like no other gut punch. 197 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 2: But you did not You did never. You never wavered never. 198 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:43,200 Speaker 2: You were a man of action. And you know, if 199 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 2: I helped in any little way, I'm I'm I'm honored. 200 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:49,559 Speaker 2: But it was really you Gianno, you did it well. 201 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 4: So God was the source, and he brought people and 202 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:58,199 Speaker 4: came in that helped in the process. Sean Hannity, John 203 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 4: Wallash and others in the Fox News family especially, and 204 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:04,680 Speaker 4: as I write in my new book The Day my 205 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 4: Brother was murdered, My Journey through America's violent crime crisis, 206 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 4: This is an effort that can impact any and every 207 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:16,080 Speaker 4: one of us. Biolent crime in America and certainly the 208 00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:18,559 Speaker 4: fact that we as a community as a country, because 209 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 4: this doesn't just happen in places like Chicago. This has 210 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:24,320 Speaker 4: happened in all over the country. Just for example, the 211 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:27,840 Speaker 4: lady Catherine I mentioned this happened in Burlison, Texas. That's 212 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 4: not the inner city. So this is something that we 213 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:33,760 Speaker 4: as a community must come together and solve. Now, the 214 00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 4: politicians have a role in this. Soft on crime. Prosecutors 215 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:41,559 Speaker 4: have to be pushed out of office. Mayors and governors 216 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 4: who refuse to support law enforcement. Those individuals need to 217 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 4: be pushed out of office. But there's a fatherless crisis 218 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,080 Speaker 4: in this country too, and if you grew up in 219 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 4: a fatherless home, you're twenty percent more likely, twenty times 220 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:58,320 Speaker 4: more likely to get involved in criminal activity. There's an 221 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:01,679 Speaker 4: education crisis in this country that has to be solved. 222 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 4: There's a faith crisis in this country. And if a person, 223 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:10,440 Speaker 4: a young person, especially if they have faith, if that's 224 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:13,040 Speaker 4: a central part of their life, they're less likely to 225 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:15,840 Speaker 4: get involved in crime. And that's the thing. There's so 226 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 4: many issues that we have to tackle, and I'm looking 227 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:21,680 Speaker 4: to tackle them one by one. And that's why I 228 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:23,600 Speaker 4: hope people will pick up a copy of my new book, 229 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 4: The Day My Brother was Murdered, My Journey through America's 230 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 4: Violent Crime Crisis. 231 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 2: Quick Break will come back more with our friend Giano Caldwell. 232 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 2: He's with the Calwell Institute for Public Safety's new book 233 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:36,200 Speaker 2: is just out. The Day My Brother was Murdered, A 234 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 2: Journey through America's Violent Crime Crisis is on Amazon dot com, 235 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:49,080 Speaker 2: Hannity dot com, bookstores across the country. As we continue, it's. 236 00:12:48,960 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 5: Time to take back America this is a Sean Hannity show. 237 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 2: All right, we continue now. My friend and colleague Giano Calwell, 238 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 2: I don't want it to be political. It's probably going 239 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 2: to sound political, but it's not meant to be. But 240 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,760 Speaker 2: I just I don't understand and I feel the Democrats 241 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 2: are responsible for this. And I'm just going to straight 242 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 2: up basket. Why didn't Obama lift a finger to help 243 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 2: the violence in Chicago? Why didn't the Democrats? Why didn't 244 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:48,080 Speaker 2: they Why did they allow twelve to twenty million whatever 245 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:53,320 Speaker 2: the number is, unvetted illegals, including murderers, rapist, known terrorists, 246 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:56,839 Speaker 2: cartel members, and gang members in the country and not 247 00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 2: bad an eyelash, Why didn't they stand for the families 248 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,720 Speaker 2: of Lake and Riley and Joss and Nungary White Well, 249 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 2: tell me what is that? 250 00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 4: Well, first off, Sean, that isn't political. It's you're giving 251 00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:10,439 Speaker 4: statements of fact here. And the truth of the matter 252 00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:13,599 Speaker 4: is it isn't advantageous for the Democrats to try to 253 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 4: get involved in Chicago because they have to admit the 254 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:18,880 Speaker 4: mistakes they made. They can't talk about the open border, 255 00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 4: They can't stand for folks who have been murdered by 256 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 4: these illegals or raped. They can't because then they have 257 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:28,920 Speaker 4: to admit their fault in it. So this becomes another 258 00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 4: situation where they pretend it doesn't exist when it does. 259 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:34,960 Speaker 4: You've seen it on new segments. The people who are listening, 260 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 4: they've seen it on new segments. They act like this 261 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:40,640 Speaker 4: wasn't a problem. Remember Biden said there was no issue 262 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 4: at the border. That's what they said. When Trump would say, oh, 263 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:46,640 Speaker 4: they're bringing over drugs, they're bringing over crime, they said, oh, 264 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 4: that's not true. Look at them these lines, All of 265 00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 4: those things that Donald Trump said end up being accurate, 266 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 4: absolutely accurate. And it's a problem. But thank god the 267 00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:00,680 Speaker 4: American people heard and responded because they know what's going on. 268 00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 4: They put Donald Trump in office because, simply put, there 269 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:06,640 Speaker 4: was no other choice. There was no other options. You 270 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:09,920 Speaker 4: couldn't have voted for Kamala Harris. You could not have 271 00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:12,480 Speaker 4: because you would get more of the same and even worse. 272 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,920 Speaker 4: And I'm honored that President Trump has endorsed my book 273 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 4: this past weekend because we need to be talking about solutions. 274 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:23,200 Speaker 4: We need to focus on solutions because we know how 275 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:25,760 Speaker 4: bad it is. People are experiencing these things on a 276 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,920 Speaker 4: daily basis. Look at the drugs that have come into 277 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:32,960 Speaker 4: our country through the open border China, Mexico. These are 278 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 4: legitimate issues and now we're trying to fix it. 279 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:39,800 Speaker 2: Well, John Walsh turned his tragedy and saved lives and 280 00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:44,560 Speaker 2: found criminals, and you're doing the same thing, and I 281 00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:46,800 Speaker 2: admire you. I want to just encourage you to keep 282 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 2: doing what you're doing.

So I've gotten to know over 344 00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:41,120 Speaker 2: a period of years now Alena Habba, and I saw 345 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:44,160 Speaker 2: the attack on Aleena today by Corey Booker and Andy 346 00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:46,879 Speaker 2: Kimm and it's the people of New Jersey deserve a 347 00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:50,359 Speaker 2: US attorney that has deep experience with law enforcement and 348 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:53,919 Speaker 2: reputation and an approach that puts partisanship to the side 349 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,879 Speaker 2: and who will work to keep our community safe and 350 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:02,800 Speaker 2: impartially pursue justic In her short tenure as an intermus attorney, 351 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:06,440 Speaker 2: she has degraded the office pursued frivolous and politically motivated 352 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:11,440 Speaker 2: product prosecutions. It's clear that Alena Habba does not meet 353 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 2: the standard to serve the people of New Jersey. And 354 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:15,439 Speaker 2: let me tell you something about New Jersey. I know 355 00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:19,159 Speaker 2: New Jersey, I know pretty well. And there are areas 356 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:25,240 Speaker 2: in New Jersey that are absolute disasters because there's been 357 00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 2: no law enforcement, there's been no accountability, there's been nobody 358 00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 2: that's cared. And Alena Habb has done more in the 359 00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:37,000 Speaker 2: short term as as the interim US Attorney than the 360 00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 2: previous like five attorneys combined. It is infuriating to me 361 00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:44,720 Speaker 2: when when good people get attacked. She was the president 362 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:49,199 Speaker 2: of the United States's Council, his legal counsel, and with 363 00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 2: all the law fair and weaponization against her, guess what 364 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:56,720 Speaker 2: she did a phenomenal job, Alena Habba. I've read this 365 00:20:56,760 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 2: today and I'll be honest, it just infuriated me because 366 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:01,560 Speaker 2: I know you're doing a good job for the people 367 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 2: in a Jersey and I know that this is a 368 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:07,840 Speaker 2: horrible part of some political attack. As predictable as it 369 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:09,360 Speaker 2: would be, Yeah, it. 370 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:11,920 Speaker 3: Pretty much is. And thank you for that, Sean. As 371 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:15,239 Speaker 3: you know, there's nobody that understands pet better than I 372 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:20,040 Speaker 3: do after what we went through. And it was such 373 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 3: an honor that the President nominated me formally. To be honest, 374 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:24,879 Speaker 3: it was an honor to even be made the interim 375 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:30,280 Speaker 3: US Attorney because if anything, my key and lead mission 376 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:35,360 Speaker 3: for my office is to never ever weaponize an office 377 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:38,840 Speaker 3: and a Department of Justice ever, because that is what 378 00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:41,919 Speaker 3: America needs. And you know me personally, But this is 379 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:44,200 Speaker 3: why I'm so happy to be here. This is why 380 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 3: I know I can do more for the state of 381 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:48,239 Speaker 3: New Jersey, frankly than I could have done from the 382 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:51,520 Speaker 3: West Wayne. And it's been the biggest honor to work 383 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:54,439 Speaker 3: with great prosecutors who have been here. I have not 384 00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:57,239 Speaker 3: fired one of them. Despite it doesn't matter what your 385 00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:59,960 Speaker 3: political views are. It does not matter. The Department of 386 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 3: Justice is supposed to be the hammer on crime, and 387 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 3: New Jersey needs a hammer and that has nothing to 388 00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:09,479 Speaker 3: do with politics, and that's my real commitment. So it 389 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:12,680 Speaker 3: was insulting but not surprising, to be honest, to hear 390 00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 3: their sentiments. 391 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:17,560 Speaker 2: Well, I thought Todd Blanche captured it in an ex 392 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:23,160 Speaker 2: post that he put out here. You launched three imperative initiatives, 393 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:28,400 Speaker 2: the Election Integrity Task Force, the Human Trafficking Task Force, 394 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:34,760 Speaker 2: the Fentnyl Task Force. And you also initiated in June alone, 395 00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:38,639 Speaker 2: what was called Operation Apex Hammer, a month long violent 396 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:42,119 Speaker 2: crime surge resulting in the arrest of over two hundred 397 00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:45,320 Speaker 2: and fifty gang members violent offenders all across the state 398 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 2: of New Jersey, nobody's ever taken on that big of 399 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:53,119 Speaker 2: an initiative. You've taken tens of millions in medicare fraud 400 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:57,080 Speaker 2: off the books, this mantled child trafficking networks. I mean, 401 00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:01,239 Speaker 2: I have chronicled this for my entire career, Alina, and 402 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 2: people have no idea how widespread it is. You've seized 403 00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 2: millions and millions and millions of dollars in fentanyl and 404 00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:13,560 Speaker 2: other hard drugs that are killing our kids. And you know, 405 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:17,640 Speaker 2: you have been fearless, fair and effective, as Todd points out, 406 00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:21,280 Speaker 2: And it's like all of these good things and it 407 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:24,960 Speaker 2: doesn't mean a thing to this grand standard, this performative 408 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:26,159 Speaker 2: artist Cory Booker. 409 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a shame. Honestly. My message is if he's 410 00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:32,200 Speaker 3: listening to I'm here and I'm here. 411 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:34,080 Speaker 2: To help, oh, he'll hear about it, trust me. 412 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:36,840 Speaker 3: And the truth of the matter is that, Sean, we 413 00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:39,399 Speaker 3: are so much stronger as a country if we work together. 414 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:42,120 Speaker 3: And the President said this a ton of times, if 415 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:45,960 Speaker 3: we could just stop this divisiveness it's ridiculous political rhetoric, 416 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:48,679 Speaker 3: and if we could just get to work and do 417 00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:51,199 Speaker 3: what New Jersey needs, which is to get rid of 418 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:54,639 Speaker 3: this violent crime, which we literally took away two hundred 419 00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:57,680 Speaker 3: and fifty individuals just in June since I've been here alone, 420 00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 3: that's just one month. At this rate, we will make 421 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:03,840 Speaker 3: a serious I will make a serious difference for everybody 422 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:05,959 Speaker 3: in the state of New Jersey. And I'm committed to that. 423 00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 3: And there are no politics, sean none. As somebody who's 424 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:12,720 Speaker 3: been around it for years, I can tell you that now, 425 00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:15,600 Speaker 3: I am not about that. We are about one thing 426 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:19,080 Speaker 3: at the Department of Justice, Safety, Security and the law. 427 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,879 Speaker 3: And if that is not that, that does not bind you, 428 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:24,879 Speaker 3: and you can't get behind that, no matter what your 429 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:27,919 Speaker 3: politics are. That's a damn shame for this country and 430 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,560 Speaker 3: for the state of New Jersey. So I encourage Corey Booker, 431 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 3: who has never met me, I encourage Andy Kim, who 432 00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:36,840 Speaker 3: has never met me, to sit down and get to 433 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 3: work with me, because we can do a lot of good. 434 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:45,480 Speaker 2: And it came, honestly, well, freeze frame that for a minute. 435 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 2: I mean, these guys are condemning you and they've never 436 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:51,520 Speaker 2: even taken the time to sit with you and maybe 437 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,400 Speaker 2: decide to work together for the people of New Jersey. 438 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:56,399 Speaker 2: Doesn't want to get to know you, just wants to 439 00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:59,280 Speaker 2: rush to judgment and turn this into a political witch hunt, 440 00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:01,880 Speaker 2: as they are, Well, that's. 441 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:03,840 Speaker 3: Exactly what we're not supposed to do, and the Apartment 442 00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:05,760 Speaker 3: of Justice is committee to not doing that. This is 443 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:09,359 Speaker 3: not political grandstanding. This is justice. This is a place 444 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:12,320 Speaker 3: where we can make our country safe and restore faith 445 00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:14,720 Speaker 3: in the Constitution and in the laws, which frankly, the 446 00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:17,600 Speaker 3: country I think lost for some time and for the 447 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:20,800 Speaker 3: first time, we're back and we're going to fight to 448 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 3: get crime off of our streets. And if they can't 449 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:26,719 Speaker 3: get behind that by picking up the phone talking to 450 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:30,280 Speaker 3: me before attacking, it's a shame. It's a shame for 451 00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:32,880 Speaker 3: our state. It's not really going to hurt me, it's 452 00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:35,520 Speaker 3: going to hurt the state of New Jersey. And I 453 00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:37,639 Speaker 3: would just urge them to come to the table and 454 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,280 Speaker 3: get to know me before you attack. Now, by the way, 455 00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 3: you know how this works, right, So I'm really relieved 456 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:45,400 Speaker 3: to not be involved on the political side of things anymore. 457 00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 3: But but you nailed it. I mean, it's an absolute 458 00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 3: opportunity to hit me when you don't even know me. 459 00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:54,280 Speaker 3: And the truth of the matter is, we've done so 460 00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 3: much good here my office, the US Attorney's office in 461 00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:00,320 Speaker 3: New Jersey. We're right in the heart of Newark and 462 00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:03,240 Speaker 3: wearing Camden. I go to work every day. I'm either 463 00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:05,720 Speaker 3: in one of those locations, and we are working hard, 464 00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:08,159 Speaker 3: and I plan to continue to and I plan to 465 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,280 Speaker 3: stay and I really hope they can get behind that. 466 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:12,320 Speaker 3: I do, because I think New Jersey will really thrive. 467 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 4: We will. 468 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 2: No, You're you're getting through. You're going to have this position. 469 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 2: One thing in the very short period of time that 470 00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:22,920 Speaker 2: you've been there that really stood out to me is 471 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:28,640 Speaker 2: as it relates to this national healthcare fraud. You had 472 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:31,520 Speaker 2: three hundred and twenty four defendants in connection with what 473 00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:37,400 Speaker 2: fourteen point six billion dollars in alleged fraud, and you know, 474 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:40,879 Speaker 2: fifteen criminal charges out of New Jersey fifty million and 475 00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:45,479 Speaker 2: civil settlements this year alone, eight million from data mining. 476 00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 2: I mean that that is a remarkable track record. How 477 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:51,760 Speaker 2: long have you even been there? You haven't been there 478 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:52,679 Speaker 2: six months. 479 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,320 Speaker 3: No, I have not been here for roughly one hundred days. 480 00:26:56,320 --> 00:27:00,240 Speaker 3: And it's been it's been just it's been invigorating. Get 481 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 3: back to practicing law and doing what I love. And honestly, 482 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:06,440 Speaker 3: I don't plan on slowing my pace at all. We're 483 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 3: just cracking down. 484 00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 2: On the Wait a minute, I think we had a 485 00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:11,440 Speaker 2: conversation saying, nah, shaw, I'm definitely not going and I'm 486 00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 2: going back to private practice. I remember that conversation. I 487 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,360 Speaker 2: might have been maybe I don't know, maybe I made 488 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:18,120 Speaker 2: it up in my head. 489 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:20,199 Speaker 3: Yeah, you're right. I did tell you that. 490 00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:21,440 Speaker 2: I said, you did. 491 00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 3: Forget it. Then I went to the White I said, 492 00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:26,679 Speaker 3: Now I'm at the US Attorney's office and I'm running 493 00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:29,879 Speaker 3: the New Jersey FEDS. And I'm working great with Pam 494 00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:34,240 Speaker 3: and Todd and all of the wonderful leadership. Frankly that 495 00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:36,720 Speaker 3: I've I've had the honor of being with. And I 496 00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:39,000 Speaker 3: never thought I would love a job honestly more than 497 00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 3: I love this one. It has been such a pleasure, 498 00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 3: and honestly, it's God's work. It's a different type of 499 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:48,760 Speaker 3: work for this country than I've ever been through. And 500 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 3: every hit that I take, Sean, You've had my back. 501 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,480 Speaker 3: But I'll tell you one thing, I don't mind because 502 00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:57,520 Speaker 3: you can keep hitting me. But I'm absolutely in love 503 00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 3: with our country and i love my home state. I'm 504 00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:02,040 Speaker 3: excited to keep vice for it. 505 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 2: And just like well, that's the interesting part of it. 506 00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:06,320 Speaker 2: I mean, you had an opportunity to be and you 507 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:08,480 Speaker 2: were working in the Oval and not in the Oval 508 00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:12,119 Speaker 2: office in the White House, and and you know, you 509 00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 2: could have stayed there, and but you wanted to go home. 510 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:20,159 Speaker 2: You wanted to serve your your state, your town, your community, uh, 511 00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:23,479 Speaker 2: and the you know, the entire state of New Jersey. 512 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 2: That was a decision that you made. Most people wouldn't 513 00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:29,680 Speaker 2: make that decision. I think most people would probably choose 514 00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:30,320 Speaker 2: the White House. 515 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, you know what, you can do more good 516 00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:37,119 Speaker 3: running one district. New Jersey's very different because we have 517 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:39,400 Speaker 3: one US attorney for the entire district, so it's the 518 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:43,040 Speaker 3: whole state. And these are where my children are being raised, 519 00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:46,000 Speaker 3: and this is where I call home for my entire life. 520 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 3: And to get back here and take care of my 521 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:53,720 Speaker 3: home state has been a tremendous gift. And I truly 522 00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:55,280 Speaker 3: have to say, as much as I loved my time 523 00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:58,840 Speaker 3: in the West Wing and being obviously in the White House, 524 00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:02,440 Speaker 3: which was so special honor as well, I can do 525 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 3: so much here and the state needs it, and that's 526 00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 3: my real commitment. I really it was an honor to 527 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 3: go home and to take care of. 528 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:14,280 Speaker 2: My own I actually would like to pursue this idea 529 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 2: of Corey Booker and Andy Kim sitting down with you. 530 00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:22,960 Speaker 2: I really would. 531 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 3: Hey, they sat, They probably sit with me. In the 532 00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:27,400 Speaker 3: time we sat with our we checked the box, and 533 00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:30,600 Speaker 3: you know, I hope they do. Honestly, Sean, you know 534 00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 3: me personally, there's a lot. 535 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:36,800 Speaker 2: You'll see with anybody. You'll sit down with anybody, anybody. 536 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:40,800 Speaker 3: I don't care about politics like that. I care about 537 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:43,960 Speaker 3: the country. And that's that's the reality is. If you 538 00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:47,320 Speaker 3: just put your political stuff aside and you sit down 539 00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 3: and you talk about things that are going to make 540 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,720 Speaker 3: our states safer, and you sit down with me, we 541 00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:54,760 Speaker 3: are probably on a lot of the same pages. But 542 00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:58,800 Speaker 3: I won't get behind grandstanding, not from the Department of Justice, 543 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:01,520 Speaker 3: not from this seat. I absolutely will not. I will 544 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 3: not wore myself to that. 545 00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:05,760 Speaker 2: You see what I think is going on here, and 546 00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:10,400 Speaker 2: correct me if I'm wrong. I think that that people 547 00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:15,240 Speaker 2: like Corey Booker and others. I think they fear everything 548 00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:18,000 Speaker 2: they did to Donald Trump is going to be done 549 00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 2: to them. And the interesting part of that is it's 550 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:25,680 Speaker 2: the exact opposite, is true. You're not political, You're not 551 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:30,240 Speaker 2: going to weaponize justice you're gonna follow our constitution, You're 552 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 2: going to follow the rule of law. You believe in 553 00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:35,600 Speaker 2: equal justice and equal application of our laws. These are 554 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:36,720 Speaker 2: not slogans to you. 555 00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:37,760 Speaker 4: Uh. 556 00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:42,520 Speaker 2: And I know because we had these conversations both during 557 00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:47,360 Speaker 2: the witch hunt and the weaponization of justice under Donald Trump, 558 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:50,800 Speaker 2: and you're like, you know, this is not how it's 559 00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:54,320 Speaker 2: the system is to work. And you even said, if 560 00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:57,120 Speaker 2: we get in charge, this is not what Donald Trump 561 00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:59,000 Speaker 2: is going to do, and he's not, and you're not. 562 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:01,920 Speaker 3: No, I absolutely am not, And I'll be honest with you, 563 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:05,000 Speaker 3: if I were to lower myself to that type of behavior, 564 00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 3: then what is the point in anything happening that changes 565 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:13,440 Speaker 3: in this country, anybody changing US attorneys, anybody changing presidents. 566 00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:17,120 Speaker 3: It means nothing. You cannot lower yourself to that which 567 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:20,120 Speaker 3: is done to you. And at the point that I 568 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:22,800 Speaker 3: really believe is frankly, there is nobody that is going 569 00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:26,240 Speaker 3: to protect the law and do things impartially more at 570 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:28,640 Speaker 3: this moment than the people that are sitting in the 571 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:30,920 Speaker 3: Department of Justice now, because we do not want that 572 00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:33,520 Speaker 3: for this country. That tit for tat the eye for 573 00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:36,440 Speaker 3: an eye, That is not what I am about. I 574 00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:38,640 Speaker 3: can say and most certainly not the Department of Justice, 575 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 3: and most certainly the people that I came up in 576 00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:44,360 Speaker 3: this world with. It just won't happen. I've made tough 577 00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:46,640 Speaker 3: decisions while I've been here Sean that have been public, 578 00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 3: and some of those decisions have not been favored by 579 00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:55,680 Speaker 3: both political parties. And the reality is, it doesn't matter 580 00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:58,520 Speaker 3: when I make the decisions. I have to call balls 581 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,000 Speaker 3: and strikes as I see them, as they are law 582 00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 3: to fact, and that is it. It doesn't matter who 583 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:06,120 Speaker 3: you are, what your job is, what your politics are. 584 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 3: I will dismiss cases as I see fit. I will 585 00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 3: bring cases that I think are worth bringing and are 586 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 3: factually there. And it's very simple. It's very simple math. 587 00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:20,080 Speaker 3: It's really there's no interpretation on that one. You have discretion. 588 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:22,760 Speaker 3: It is a big hammer that you can use, but 589 00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:24,720 Speaker 3: it has to be used wisely. And that's how I 590 00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:28,080 Speaker 3: plan to continue my job here, all right. 591 00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:30,400 Speaker 2: But the worst part is, as somebody lives in the 592 00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:34,160 Speaker 2: free state of Florida, New Jersey is not my favorite. 593 00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:36,920 Speaker 2: I left the state I was born in New York 594 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:43,280 Speaker 2: for good reason. Alina Haba, I see no problems, regardless 595 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:46,000 Speaker 2: of what these guys might say in terms of your 596 00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 2: nomination and you Pambondi, Dan Bongino, You're going to make 597 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,400 Speaker 2: a great team and make the country safer and more 598 00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:56,720 Speaker 2: secure and restore law and order and integrity to our 599 00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:59,560 Speaker 2: justice system.
