1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:04,040
Speaker 1: It's another crazy week in presidential politics, but I think

2
00:00:04,080 --> 00:00:06,760
Speaker 1: we've all just become accustomed to that at this point,

3
00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:11,160
Speaker 1: between an assassination attempt, Joe Biden dropping out viax and

4
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:14,920
Speaker 1: then an entirely brand new Democrat ticket one that hasn't

5
00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:18,520
Speaker 1: received a single primary vote, or we don't want to caucus,

6
00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:20,799
Speaker 1: so I think we're all pretty much accustomed to the

7
00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:24,520
Speaker 1: craziness at this point. Well, Kamala Harris is finally going

8
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:27,880
Speaker 1: to do her first interview after thirty nine days of

9
00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:31,200
Speaker 1: hiding from reporters, the woman who is vying to be

10
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:34,320
Speaker 1: commander in chief president of the United States is finally

11
00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:38,640
Speaker 1: sitting down for her first television interview. Something that members

12
00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:42,839
Speaker 1: of Congress, whether they're in the House, senators or Trump

13
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 1: does on a daily basis, has suddenly become a big

14
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 1: to do. And she's sitting down with CNN's Dana Bash, who,

15
00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:53,400
Speaker 1: let's just say, she's not objective, and instead of doing

16
00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:57,400
Speaker 1: it solo, she has to have Tim Walls sitting by

17
00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:00,280
Speaker 1: her side, tamp on Tim. So we've got a woman

18
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,360
Speaker 1: who wants to be the first female president who can't

19
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:04,960
Speaker 1: do an interview alone. I guess she's so scared took

20
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:06,840
Speaker 1: her this long to even do one in the first place.

21
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:08,959
Speaker 1: But she has to have a man sitting beside her

22
00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 1: who wants to put tampons in the boys' bathroom. So

23
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:13,680
Speaker 1: I think it's safe to say that if they win,

24
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:16,120
Speaker 1: we are in some serious trouble. So we're going to

25
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 1: get into that with today's guest. We're also going to

26
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:21,360
Speaker 1: talk about the fact that Trump went to Arlington National

27
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 1: Cemetery to honor the lives of the thirteen service members

28
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 1: who were killed in the Afghanistan the disastrous at Afghanistan withdrawal.

29
00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,560
Speaker 1: Mind you, one that Kamala Harris said she was the

30
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:34,840
Speaker 1: last voice in the room to make the decision to

31
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 1: withdraw that led to the death of these thirteen service members.

32
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 1: So the former president Donald Trump was invited to be

33
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,720
Speaker 1: there to spend time with the families to honor the fallen,

34
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:47,640
Speaker 1: Yet he is being viciously attacked by the media. You

35
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:49,720
Speaker 1: can't make this stuff up. The guy just cannot win.

36
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 1: And lastly, we're going to get into the congressional investigation

37
00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 1: into the assassination attempt of Donald Trump. Why did Matthew

38
00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 1: Crooks have three encrypted accounts in Germany, Belgium and New Zealand. Also,

39
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 1: how the heck did he learn how to construct IEDs

40
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:09,640
Speaker 1: and why don't we know more? At this point, it

41
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 1: sure seems like the Secret Service and the FBI are

42
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 1: covering something up. So are they covering up in competence

43
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 1: or something more nefarious. We're going to get into all

44
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 1: of that with Congressman Mike Waltz from Florida. He is

45
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:25,600
Speaker 1: a member of that bipartisan group of lawmakers. He is

46
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:29,239
Speaker 1: also a colonel in the National Guard, a combat decorated

47
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 1: Green Beret who served in combat in Afghanistan. Unlike Tim Walls,

48
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:38,360
Speaker 1: who lied about it, but he served in combat in Afghanistan.

49
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:42,960
Speaker 1: He was also awarded four Bronze Stars, including two for valor.

50
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 1: So a lot to get into it with Congressman Mike Waltz,

51
00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:54,480
Speaker 1: not to be confused with Tim Walls. Stay tuned well, Congressman,

52
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 1: it's great to have you on the show. First time

53
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,839
Speaker 1: on the show. Really appreciate you making the time.

54
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,959
Speaker 2: Yeah, my pleasure. I hope when you say my name,

55
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:10,080
Speaker 2: lisaits Waltz with a tea. I did retire as a colonel,

56
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,640
Speaker 2: and I did carry a weapon of war and war

57
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,280
Speaker 2: uh and I did actually serve in Afghanistan, waltz with

58
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 2: a tea for my poor staff who have had to

59
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:21,639
Speaker 2: answer the phones for the last month.

60
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,840
Speaker 1: Well, you know, I don't blame you for not wanting

61
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:29,960
Speaker 1: to be associated with the tampon guy. So right, the

62
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 1: damp on em boys bathroom guy. Uh, that's hilarious. Well,

63
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:40,040
Speaker 1: speaking of tampon tim. You know, so Kamala is finally

64
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 1: doing her big sit down interview after you know, thirty

65
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 1: nine days. There was that article in Politigo about just

66
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 1: the level of chaos and even just setting up a

67
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 1: basic television interview, which is something you do like Italy

68
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 1: Bakesith and her first big one. She has to have

69
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,880
Speaker 1: tim walls walls not to be confused with Walds, as

70
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 1: you said by her side after thirty night. I mean,

71
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:09,920
Speaker 1: what does it say about her and her inability to lead?

72
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, if she can't handle basic press questions, so I

73
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:18,360
Speaker 2: don't even count this one. They're going to say, box checked.

74
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:22,160
Speaker 2: She did an interview, Stop your criticism, good to go, right,

75
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 2: that is as you know, Uh, she's probably reading the

76
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 2: questions right now. I don't know, but it is different

77
00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:35,159
Speaker 2: than a press conference. Unscript did off the top of

78
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:37,559
Speaker 2: your head, think on your feet and if she can't

79
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,279
Speaker 2: do that, how the hell is she going to stand

80
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:45,000
Speaker 2: up next to Putin she or any other world leader

81
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 2: and acting deal with as an based on her depth

82
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:55,480
Speaker 2: or lack of their knowledge of the issues.

83
00:04:55,920 --> 00:05:00,120
Speaker 1: Well, and it's taped, and she still is released. You know,

84
00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:04,040
Speaker 1: the substantive policies. You know, she copied Trump's no tax

85
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 1: on tips and then sort of recanted, and then she

86
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,479
Speaker 1: did the price controls, which even liberals in the media

87
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,080
Speaker 1: were like, this is too far, lady, But I have

88
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:15,720
Speaker 1: no confidence that CNN her. You know, she's going to

89
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:19,599
Speaker 1: be really questioned on any of these policy positions or

90
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,280
Speaker 1: held to account for her prior statements on you know,

91
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 1: winning medicare for all and decriminizing border crossings, and the

92
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:26,359
Speaker 1: list goes on.

93
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 2: What an irony stat irony. Kabovo was charged even if

94
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:35,479
Speaker 2: you believe they're telling Okay, so maybe she wasn't the

95
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 2: borders are right, I don't believe that. But if you

96
00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 2: even take that at face value, she was charged with

97
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:46,039
Speaker 2: understanding the core driver of by gradation out of Central

98
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 2: South America. What's the number one country that people are fleeing,

99
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:55,479
Speaker 2: Socialist Venezuela. Why because of socialist price controls. It had

100
00:05:55,560 --> 00:06:01,680
Speaker 2: caused a scarcity and literally everything in what was the

101
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:06,120
Speaker 2: most prosperous country in UH in South America. So I mean,

102
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:09,359
Speaker 2: even if she had taken a minute to understand what

103
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,600
Speaker 2: was driving people to flee, it would be the very policy,

104
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:16,360
Speaker 2: the oak policy that she's actually proposed. I mean, it

105
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 2: just it would just be laughable if the ward's scary.

106
00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:21,800
Speaker 1: You know, before we get to I want to get

107
00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,120
Speaker 1: into the leadst in the assassination attempt, But I have

108
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:29,160
Speaker 1: to also ask you about NPR and defaming President Trump,

109
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,760
Speaker 1: who was invited by you know, family members of the

110
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 1: fallen soldiers of Biden's disasters withdrawal from Afghanistan being attacked,

111
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 1: saying that, you know, Trump was not allowed to take

112
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 1: photos there, you know, just like defamation. After these families

113
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,160
Speaker 1: have been through so much, they wanted Trump there. He

114
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,360
Speaker 1: spent his time there, he would honor these soldiers. Yet

115
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 1: he STI gets attacked.

116
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 2: I was there and had been involved with the planning

117
00:06:55,920 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 2: for this. The families right vited President to join them,

118
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:06,080
Speaker 2: which he did. And by the way, this wasn't like

119
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 2: a two minute drive by. He spent the entire morning

120
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:13,560
Speaker 2: with them. It was a long solemn and sad ceremony.

121
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:16,880
Speaker 2: It just pisses me off to no end. I've lost

122
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 2: Green Berets in combat. That happens in war. But this

123
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 2: was because of idiocy, literally in competence in the White House.

124
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 2: But the families were so thrilled to have him there.

125
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 2: And you overlay that with the fact of Biden checking

126
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 2: his watch, the incompetence that cost it in the first place,

127
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:37,360
Speaker 2: the fact that he has not mentioned, not only not

128
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:40,600
Speaker 2: mentioned their names, wouldn't even mention Afghanistan. Then you go

129
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:45,440
Speaker 2: through the entire Democrat National Convention and nobody mentions it

130
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 2: at all either. They just want to sweep the whole

131
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 2: thing under the rug. And this isn't the first time

132
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 2: President Trump has done this. I was with them when

133
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:56,640
Speaker 2: he had them up to Bedminster, spent an entire evening,

134
00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 2: met with it, each one individually. And the thing he

135
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 2: has promised then is not only accountability to fire people,

136
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 2: the people who are involved when he gets back into

137
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:09,760
Speaker 2: the Oval office, he's promised them transparency. All the videos,

138
00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,800
Speaker 2: all the tapes, all the emails, all the records He's

139
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 2: going to release to them and they so they get

140
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 2: the transparency and the closure that they deserve. And now

141
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:24,440
Speaker 2: to have some unnamed what mid level official who in

142
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 2: his or her mind tried to decide that this was

143
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,680
Speaker 2: campaign activity and therefore was going to put their foot

144
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:34,560
Speaker 2: down and block photography. Where is this rule from the

145
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:37,680
Speaker 2: Department of Defense that there's no photography in the cemetery.

146
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,640
Speaker 2: I have reunions there all the time with my green

147
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:45,880
Speaker 2: Berets with at the tombstones, and we take pictures, we

148
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:49,239
Speaker 2: take group pictures. We you know, it's it's a celebration

149
00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:52,560
Speaker 2: of their life and their service, and that's what President

150
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:56,719
Speaker 2: Trump was doing this. It's really pathetic and despicable that

151
00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 2: this is happening, and I'm glad that the families themselves

152
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 2: elves are pushing back. It's not a slap in President

153
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:06,080
Speaker 2: Trump's face. It's a slap in their face, well on

154
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:10,360
Speaker 2: top of everything else that's happened to them since the

155
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 2: Abbegate bombing. It's really sad and frankly infuriating.

156
00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:18,360
Speaker 1: Well, you know, and he has a long history of

157
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,840
Speaker 1: you know, visiting service members and going to their funerals

158
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 1: and wanting to be there, you know, whether it's police

159
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,480
Speaker 1: officers in New York City or you know, with these

160
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,559
Speaker 1: thirteen service members and again they asked him. Yeah, you

161
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:33,440
Speaker 1: know CNN's Jim Acosta saying that he's trying to politicize

162
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:36,280
Speaker 1: it when you know, he was asked to be there

163
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:38,160
Speaker 1: and showed them the honor and the respect that they

164
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:41,240
Speaker 1: deserve by being there. And these families have had no accountability.

165
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,040
Speaker 1: I mean, no one from the Biden administration has been

166
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:47,079
Speaker 1: fired for this. No asters, that's all. So there's no accountability.

167
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:50,359
Speaker 2: No, they're not only no one's been fired. They're promoting

168
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 2: people that were involved. They just nominated the woman that

169
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 2: was supposed to coordinate the evacuation. They just nominated her

170
00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,839
Speaker 2: to be ambassador to Rah. They're promoting them and putting

171
00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:04,560
Speaker 2: them positions of more responsibility. So yeah, it's it's not

172
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 2: as though Holy said, It's not as though President Trump

173
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:10,760
Speaker 2: went to the mics and started, you know, hitting Harris

174
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 2: or Biden. It's not as though we had campaign signs everywhere.

175
00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:18,679
Speaker 2: It was very solemn, very serious. But President Trump being

176
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:21,400
Speaker 2: President Trump. I mean, he had the families kind of

177
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 2: laughing at one point because he's just He's just him,

178
00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:29,320
Speaker 2: and it's a side of him that I've seen that

179
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:31,920
Speaker 2: the families have seen. But it's the side of him

180
00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:36,160
Speaker 2: that runs against the media, mainstream media narrative, and they

181
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 2: just can't stand it, and they'll, you know, jump on

182
00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:42,080
Speaker 2: any little tidbit to try to squash what was a

183
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:44,080
Speaker 2: very meaningful and important day.

184
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:46,719
Speaker 1: Well, they just wanted to dehumanize him, and you know,

185
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:51,360
Speaker 1: part of that humanization led to an attempted assassination attempt.

186
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 1: I know that you've been part of this investigation into

187
00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:59,199
Speaker 1: what exactly happened. Why don't we have more information about

188
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:03,240
Speaker 1: the shooter? You know, his his you know, intentions, why

189
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:06,160
Speaker 1: he did it? You know, why don't we know more?

190
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 1: At this point it seems like we should.

191
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:11,200
Speaker 2: You know, well we should, and I've told the FBI

192
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:14,839
Speaker 2: and the Secret Service this isn't one little you know,

193
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 2: this wasn't one major, not little isolated incident that you

194
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:22,920
Speaker 2: can now take the next year or two to unpack

195
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:27,360
Speaker 2: and investigate. These threats are ongoing. There are other domestic

196
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 2: threats as we just saw in Arizona, UH and there's

197
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:36,600
Speaker 2: ongoing Iranian assassination plots and attempts. They just arrest did

198
00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:40,600
Speaker 2: a Pakistani national with ties to Iran who was putting

199
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:46,040
Speaker 2: down payments on hitman to try to take Trump out

200
00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:50,080
Speaker 2: so if he was, if Crooks was radicalized, if Crooks

201
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:54,520
Speaker 2: was working with someone else, I have real questions on

202
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:59,800
Speaker 2: how did he learn to build these IEDs with remote debt,

203
00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:04,560
Speaker 2: and three of which were built and ready to go.

204
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:09,080
Speaker 2: Why did he have these encrypted accounts in three different countries?

205
00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 2: You know? Why? Actually do we know so little? It's

206
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:17,080
Speaker 2: almost as though his online presence was sterilized on purpose.

207
00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:21,679
Speaker 2: I'm on the damn task FORSE and I'm not getting

208
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:26,360
Speaker 2: the answers to these questions. It's frustrating as hell. I'm

209
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:29,079
Speaker 2: glad we have this task force to look over the

210
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:32,719
Speaker 2: FBI's shoulders and look over the Secret Services shoulders. I'm

211
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:36,559
Speaker 2: looking forward when we get back to Washington to get

212
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 2: in the headquarters and see what they've seen. I'm not

213
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:42,680
Speaker 2: going to sit back and just wait for them to

214
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,880
Speaker 2: slop something in front of us, you know, months from now.

215
00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:46,839
Speaker 2: It's not acceptable.

216
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:50,080
Speaker 1: We've got more with the congressmen, but first, we're quickly

217
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:53,600
Speaker 1: approaching the one year anniversary of the horrific Amas attacks

218
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 1: on Israel, and still the Holy Land continues to be

219
00:12:56,600 --> 00:13:00,520
Speaker 1: attacked on multiple fronts. Deadly threats are increasing in northern

220
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:04,319
Speaker 1: Israel and constant rocket attacks from Hezbolah have been fired

221
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:09,360
Speaker 1: at Israel, causing widespread damage, with raging wildfires destroying precious farmland.

222
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:12,760
Speaker 1: Since the war started, the International Fellowship of Christians and

223
00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:15,640
Speaker 1: Jews has been on the forefront in Israel addressing the

224
00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:18,280
Speaker 1: needs of the most vulnerable. That's why I'm partnering with

237
00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 1: support now. Can we trust an FBI that weaponized the

238
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:09,760
Speaker 1: Steel dossier, something that the CIA said was an Internet

239
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:13,120
Speaker 1: rumor against President Trump.

240
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:16,600
Speaker 2: We weaponized the I mean what's weaponized. The Steele dossier

241
00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:21,720
Speaker 2: had analysis uh radical you know, against Catholics as radicals,

242
00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 2: going after parents as domestic terrorists. The list is long,

243
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:31,440
Speaker 2: painful and scary. No, that's why the Speaker established this

244
00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:35,040
Speaker 2: task force uh to to again to conduct oversight and

245
00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:39,200
Speaker 2: look over their shoulder. No, I don't trust the leadership

246
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:40,960
Speaker 2: of the FBI as far as I can throw them,

247
00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:43,600
Speaker 2: and I've told Chris Ray that personally. And what's sad

248
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 2: is that the American people have lost trust. And when

249
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:51,960
Speaker 2: we don't see him firing people for these offenses, when we,

250
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 2: in fact, we see the Department of Justice settling and

251
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:59,320
Speaker 2: paying one point two million dollars of their money to

252
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:07,720
Speaker 2: people least uh uh Page and Carter, it's it's it's

253
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:10,840
Speaker 2: doing the opposite of rebuilding public trust in our in

254
00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 2: our federal law enforcement.

255
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 1: Well, and there's just so much that doesn't make sense

256
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:17,360
Speaker 1: about it. You know. So Crooks was able to fly

257
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:21,120
Speaker 1: his drone for eleven minutes, but Secret Service couldn't fly theirs.

258
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:24,760
Speaker 1: And then they also turned down the local police's office

259
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:28,800
Speaker 1: offered to fly their drone. You know, So that doesn't

260
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:31,320
Speaker 1: really add up. And then you know there's this audio

261
00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:34,120
Speaker 1: where local police thought that the Secret Service had the

262
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 1: ad R building covered. That was the impression that the

263
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 1: Secret Service led them to believe. So you know, why

264
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:42,400
Speaker 1: was why was that disconnect? You know, why did that happen?

265
00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:49,480
Speaker 1: You know, it's just it's hard to believe. Congressman, you

266
00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:52,160
Speaker 1: know that this just comes down to incompetence.

267
00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:55,920
Speaker 2: Is it is least not willing to go to you

268
00:15:56,040 --> 00:16:02,560
Speaker 2: know the Yeah, I have absolutely have an open mind

269
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 2: to it that this was you know, giga have Trump

270
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:13,160
Speaker 2: killed by you know, I guess I owe of resources. However,

271
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,440
Speaker 2: I do think there was gross incompetence and it's so bad.

272
00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:20,520
Speaker 2: You're right, it's hard to eat. And I go back

273
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:27,000
Speaker 2: to the the quote for years that some score detail

274
00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:30,960
Speaker 2: had been making. You know, he basically was treated like

275
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:33,240
Speaker 2: any other former president. You know, when you go from

276
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:36,440
Speaker 2: president to former president, they cut the size of your

277
00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:40,520
Speaker 2: detail down. Okay, fine, but he's not a Jimmy Carter

278
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 2: in an old folksatl Laura or a George W. Bush

279
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 2: like painting in this barn half the day. He's got

280
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:51,640
Speaker 2: multiple residences, he's obviously on the move, he's engaging with

281
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:55,440
Speaker 2: the public, and you have foreign Iranian intelligence threats and

282
00:16:55,560 --> 00:17:00,400
Speaker 2: his station plots against him in his core de detail

283
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:03,720
Speaker 2: had been requesting for years to give them more and

284
00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:08,560
Speaker 2: were repeatedly denied. So was this a and then you

285
00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:13,359
Speaker 2: overlay that with more Butler PA. We know now that

286
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:17,480
Speaker 2: in terms of supplementing that detail for that rally, that

287
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:22,600
Speaker 2: that twelve agents were sent to doctor Jill's event and

288
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:26,240
Speaker 2: only three were sent to the Butler PA despite it

289
00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:30,480
Speaker 2: being outdoors, having those vulnerability points. Yeah, look, I'm with you,

290
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:32,800
Speaker 2: It's almost hard to believe, but I'm going to keep

291
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:36,440
Speaker 2: an open mind. I keep investigating, getting keeople overlooking their

292
00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:39,320
Speaker 2: investigation until we get to that point.

293
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:41,639
Speaker 1: Well, and I also just found it so strange. I

294
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,680
Speaker 1: watched the there's a Senate hearing not too long ago

295
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:49,280
Speaker 1: with Acting Director Row at Secret Service Director Row, and

296
00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:53,679
Speaker 1: he had said that somehow steeing a young man walking

297
00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:56,720
Speaker 1: around with a rangefinder didn't elevate it to a heightened

298
00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,879
Speaker 1: risk where they still allowed. Yeah, President Trump to take

299
00:17:59,880 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 1: the state. How many men or how many young men

300
00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:06,080
Speaker 1: do you see walking around these rallies with the rangefinder?

301
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:09,399
Speaker 1: I would assume never. It boggles the mind that somehow

302
00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:10,880
Speaker 1: that didn't reach and elebrate.

303
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:14,159
Speaker 2: The only two instances that I know where people use

304
00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:17,240
Speaker 2: rangefinders are golf and shooting. And I don't think there's

305
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 2: a golf course anywhere around there, right, So yeah, I

306
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:23,520
Speaker 2: mean we've got so much to unpack it. It's not

307
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:26,639
Speaker 2: only the request the last couple of years for his

308
00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 2: core detail and the failures of that day, but I

309
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:33,920
Speaker 2: think there are broader issues in terms of recruiting and

310
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:41,920
Speaker 2: training DEI and that nonsense, their budget. There's a lot

311
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:46,080
Speaker 2: to unpack here. Jason Chafitz, a former chairman of Oversight,

312
00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 2: actually did a full a full blow of an investigation

313
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:56,359
Speaker 2: back in twenty seventeen because of failures back then, and

314
00:18:56,600 --> 00:19:01,200
Speaker 2: uncovered four hundred different issues. Uh, and I don't think

315
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:03,880
Speaker 2: any of them were addressed. And I've been going back

316
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:07,720
Speaker 2: and rereading, you know, things from five, six, seven years ago.

317
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,720
Speaker 2: So this is there's been a number of long standing issues.

318
00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:17,080
Speaker 2: But I'm with you, it is that they encomage at

319
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:21,480
Speaker 2: such gross levels. It's almost hard to believe. And how

320
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:24,560
Speaker 2: do The question I keep asking Lisa is, you know,

321
00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:26,680
Speaker 2: how do they say we know so little, We still

322
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:29,479
Speaker 2: don't know motivation, We can't get into these accounts very

323
00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:33,240
Speaker 2: little online presence, but yet they're very confident in staying

324
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:37,840
Speaker 2: he acted alone. Okay, how do you say that in

325
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:40,920
Speaker 2: the same breath. I haven't seen the proof yet that

326
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:43,880
Speaker 2: they're that they should be saying they're one hundred percent

327
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:47,480
Speaker 2: certain he acted alone, especially when you're overlaid with the

328
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:51,359
Speaker 2: fact that you've got ongoing operatives recruiting people and the

329
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:53,840
Speaker 2: level of training that he got from somewhere to make

330
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:54,560
Speaker 2: those IDs.

331
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:56,760
Speaker 1: Do you think we'll ever get answers.

332
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:01,399
Speaker 2: I think we will get the answers if we win

333
00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:05,200
Speaker 2: the White House and get inside those agencies. That's that's

334
00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:08,119
Speaker 2: that's the only way that will truly get to the

335
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,360
Speaker 2: bottom of all of this is we have to get

336
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:14,520
Speaker 2: inside their data bases, their records, their communications at the time.

337
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,679
Speaker 2: And frankly, that's if they don't get destroyed between now

338
00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:21,240
Speaker 2: and then. We've said document preservation letters, it's against the

339
00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:23,840
Speaker 2: law aw for them to destroy that. But I mean,

340
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:26,720
Speaker 2: look what hath the low It is larger in the irs.

341
00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:30,360
Speaker 2: It all went poof. Look what happened with Hillary Clinton, him,

342
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:36,440
Speaker 2: devices bleach bit and records destroyed. This is why we

343
00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:39,640
Speaker 2: President Trump has to win and he has to put

344
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:42,399
Speaker 2: people in that are willing to go into these agencies

345
00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:43,200
Speaker 2: and clean house.

346
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:46,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, but Congressman Donald Trump is the threat to democracy.

347
00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:50,480
Speaker 1: That's thinking aim all the things that have happened under democrats,

348
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:52,800
Speaker 1: you know, try to kick him off the ballot, throw

349
00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:56,000
Speaker 1: them in jail. But still with the straight face, they

350
00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:59,439
Speaker 1: tell us that Donald Trump is still that's the democracy there.

351
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:02,639
Speaker 2: H right, we live in we live in Wiley time now.

352
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:07,960
Speaker 2: And now you are doctor Berg expressing, you know, his

353
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,879
Speaker 2: remorse and regret. Uh. You know, we found out the

354
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:14,120
Speaker 2: fifty one Intel agencies. I was all engined. That letter

355
00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:19,160
Speaker 2: was completely engineered by the Biden campaign, uh, by Jake

356
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:23,800
Speaker 2: Sullivan and Anthony Blincoln. And the problem, Lisa is there's

357
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:26,119
Speaker 2: going to be a point, maybe it's with China or

358
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:29,720
Speaker 2: what have you, where we're going to have to say

359
00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:32,760
Speaker 2: trust us. This is what the Intel says. But we

360
00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:37,200
Speaker 2: can't divulge it because we'll lose sources and methods, and

361
00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:39,840
Speaker 2: the American people are going to say, we don't trust you,

362
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:40,680
Speaker 2: We've lost trust.

363
00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:41,240
Speaker 1: Uh.

364
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:44,560
Speaker 2: And that is you know, that's a scary that's a

365
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:47,080
Speaker 2: very scary thing. I sit on the Intel Committee. There

366
00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:49,680
Speaker 2: are men and women out there risking their lives day

367
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:51,840
Speaker 2: in and day out, in the shadows for the good

368
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:55,080
Speaker 2: of America. And we've got a corrupt and politicized leadership

369
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:58,159
Speaker 2: that's doing them in the American people, in our safety,

370
00:21:58,200 --> 00:21:59,080
Speaker 2: a real disservice.

371
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:01,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, And the only way to turn it around is

372
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:09,400
Speaker 1: our mass firings and just you know, complete transparency, radical transparency,

373
00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:13,120
Speaker 1: I think silly way to earn people's trust. To get
