1 00:00:01,280 --> 00:00:01,680 Speaker 1: Welcome. 2 00:00:01,720 --> 00:00:04,520 Speaker 2: It is verdict of Senator Ted Cruz Ben Ferguson with 3 00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:08,840 Speaker 2: you as well, Senator. The Durham report is out and 4 00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:13,120 Speaker 2: it's very clear that it vindicates Donald Trump. I can't 5 00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:15,920 Speaker 2: believe I'm saying this, but even CNN said it vindicates 6 00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:19,160 Speaker 2: Donald Trump. It was very clear a witch hunt from 7 00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:21,279 Speaker 2: the deep State to go after the President of the 8 00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:24,040 Speaker 2: United States of America and to try to destroy him, 9 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:28,400 Speaker 2: his family, his entire life, and to remind people of 10 00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:33,240 Speaker 2: how much they wanted to destroy Donald Trump. Let's remind 11 00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:37,080 Speaker 2: people of what Nancy Pelosi said when all this started 12 00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:38,840 Speaker 2: many years ago. 13 00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:44,080 Speaker 3: This week we saw cold hard evidence of the Trump campaign, 14 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 3: indeed the Trump family eagerly intending to collude, possibly with Russia, 15 00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:58,320 Speaker 3: a hostile foreign power, to influence American elections in the month. Again, 16 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:02,160 Speaker 3: as we celebrate the courage of our founders, Republicans in 17 00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:07,679 Speaker 3: Congress have become enablers of the Trump Russia assault on 18 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 3: our democracy. After these latest revelations, it's becoming clear we 19 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:17,120 Speaker 3: have suffered a desecration of our democracy not seen since Watergate. 20 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:22,160 Speaker 3: Speaker Ryan must allow a vote on an outside, independent 21 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:24,839 Speaker 3: kit mission to get to the bottom of the Trump 22 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:28,759 Speaker 3: campaign's rule in Russia's assault on our democracy, and prevent 23 00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:34,319 Speaker 3: Putin from ever doing it again. Immediately outside independent commission. 24 00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:37,920 Speaker 3: It's not just about what happened in the past, is 25 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:40,160 Speaker 3: to prevent it from happening again. 26 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 1: Send her. 27 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:43,959 Speaker 2: She knew she was lying, and she was calling for 28 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,960 Speaker 2: a full on investigation of Donald Trump, and she got. 29 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 4: It every word. Nancy Pelosi said, there was a lie. 30 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:55,559 Speaker 4: You're right. She knew she was lying. The media knew 31 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 4: she was lying, The Department of Justice knew she was lying. 32 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 4: The FBI knew she was not lying. Congressional Democrat leadership 33 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 4: knew she was lying. As I read this report, I'm angry. 34 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 4: I'm angry on multiple fronts. Let me quote from the 35 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 4: Durham Report. Quote. Based on the evidence gathered in the 36 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 4: multiple exhaustive and costly federal investigations of these matters, including 37 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 4: the Incidant investigation, neither US law enforcement nor the intelligence 38 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 4: community appears to have possessed any actual evidence of collusion 39 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 4: in their holdings. At the commencement of the Crossfire Hurricane investigation, 40 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:45,519 Speaker 4: the report continues, quote, our investigation determined that the Crossfire 41 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:51,520 Speaker 4: Hurricane investigators did not and could not corroborate any any 42 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 4: of the substantive allegations contained in the Steel reporting, Nor 43 00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 4: was Steel able to produce corroboration for any of the 44 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 4: reported allegations, even after being offered one million dollars or 45 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 4: more by the FBI for such corroboration. This investigation was 46 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 4: started as a lie, and it was started as a 47 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 4: political witch hunt. Actually, the words Trump used were accurate. 48 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:23,239 Speaker 4: This was a witch hunt. This was Democrats in Congress. 49 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:27,240 Speaker 4: This was rabid left wing partisans burrowed into the FBI. 50 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 4: This was rabid left wing partisans burrowed in the Department 51 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 4: of Justice, all using the machinery of law enforcement to 52 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 4: target what was then the Republican nominee for president. This 53 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 4: is a grotesque abuse of power. And if you're not 54 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 4: angry at it, even if you were a Democrat, even 55 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 4: if you can't stand Trump, the idea that the federal 56 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 4: government would go after one of the two major party 57 00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 4: nominees and try to destroy them because they hate him, 58 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 4: is an incredible threat to our liberty and to our democracy. 59 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 4: And I use those words without a sense of irony, 60 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:11,839 Speaker 4: because the Democrats, as you just played, Nancy Pelosi said, 61 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 4: we're defending democracy. Defending democracy. She was engaged in as 62 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 4: fundamental an assault on democracy as our country has ever seen. 63 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 4: It was using law enforcement to try to prevent the 64 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 4: American people from electing someone she didn't want, and then 65 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:31,479 Speaker 4: to try to remove a duly elected president because she 66 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 4: hated the voters for electing it. 67 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 2: Is it too strong center to call this, and I 68 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 2: think it's time just that we're blunt. Is this was 69 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 2: this basically an essence of coup attempt by the deep 70 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 2: state to say, we don't like who the American people chose, 71 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 2: and therefore we're going to fix it by on false pretenses, 72 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 2: framing someone for crimes, framing somebody for things they never did, 73 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 2: writing a script to frame them for it, and then 74 00:04:58,480 --> 00:04:59,720 Speaker 2: get rid of that person. 75 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,919 Speaker 4: So yes and no, there were some engaged in a 76 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 4: coup attempt. In fact, if I may be so bold 77 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 4: as to use the word insurrection, when you're trying to 78 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,920 Speaker 4: topple a duly elected government, it's an insurrection. And what 79 00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 4: Nancy Pelosi was trying to do, what Congressional Democrats were 80 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:22,160 Speaker 4: trying to do, was an insurrection. I think some of 81 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 4: the hard partisans at DOJ and the FBI were doing 82 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 4: the same I think others were just complacents. So let 83 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:34,240 Speaker 4: me read again from the Durham Report quote. Based on 84 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 4: the review of Crossfire, Hurricane, and related intelligence activities, we 85 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:42,599 Speaker 4: concluded that the Department and the FBI failed to uphold 86 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 4: their important mission of strict fidelity to the law in 87 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 4: connection with certain events and activities described in this report. 88 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 4: As noted, former FBI Attorney Kevin Klin Smith committed a 89 00:05:56,279 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 4: criminal offense by fabricating language and an EBA that was 90 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:04,159 Speaker 4: material to the FBI in obtaining a PHISIS surveillance order. 91 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 4: In other instance, FBI personnel working on the same PHIZ 92 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 4: application displayed at best a cavalier attitude towards accuracy and completeness. Now, 93 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 4: the Durham Report continues. Our investigation also revealed that senior 94 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:29,719 Speaker 4: FBI personnel displayed a serious lack of analytical rigor towards 95 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 4: the information that they received, especially information from politically affiliated 96 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 4: persons and entities, and the report continues. In light of 97 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,480 Speaker 4: the foregoing, there is a continuing need for the FBI 98 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 4: and the Department to recognize that lack of analytical rigor, 99 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:53,039 Speaker 4: apparent confirmation bias, and an over willingness to rely on 100 00:06:53,120 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 4: information from individuals connected to political opponents caused investigators fail 101 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 4: to adequately consider alternative hypotheses and to act without appropriate 102 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 4: objectivity or restraint in pursuing allegations of collusion or conspiracy 103 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 4: between a US political campaign and a foreign power. This 104 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 4: is deming and it shows a combination of people on 105 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 4: a mission to destroy their political opponents and perfectly happy 106 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 4: to use law enforcement to do it, and others who 107 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 4: had such a sense of laxity that they were perfectly 108 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 4: fine to be part of the process. And no one 109 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 4: who stood up and said, what the hell are we doing? 110 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 4: And that's what I wonder. Is there no one in DOJ, 111 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 4: no one in FBI who had a shred of integrity, 112 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 4: who said, even if they're a Democrat, gosh, I don't 113 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:52,720 Speaker 4: like Trump, but we don't have evidence here to launch 114 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 4: a massive investigation to try to influence and shift the 115 00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 4: results of an election and try to remove a duly 116 00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 4: elected president. As far as this report indicates, nobody had 117 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 4: that integrity. 118 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 2: Say that, I want to talk about naming names, and 119 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 2: I think this is part of the accountability that the 120 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 2: American People Center are just sick and tired of. And 121 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 2: I've got a list of people, and I want to 122 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 2: ask you if you believe are they guilty? And should 123 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 2: the American people trust them? And before I go through 124 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:23,400 Speaker 2: that list, I want to talk to you about our 125 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 2: friends O her Chok.

Let's go through this list and very 148 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 2: very clearly, let's let's talk about the players. First of all, 149 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 2: let's start at the top with the FBI. Is it 150 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 2: clear that the FBI was guilty of lying to the 151 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 2: American people? 152 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 4: Unquestionably yes, and in fact it is a fact. So 153 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:58,640 Speaker 4: Andrew klin Smith, who I mentioned before, he was an 154 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 4: assistant General counsel at the FBI. He fabricated, he created 155 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:08,560 Speaker 4: a counterfeit document, he committed a felony, and the circumstances 156 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 4: of that. As you know, we've talked about this in 157 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 4: the pod. Before the last book, I wrote Justice Corrupted, 158 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 4: How the Left has weaponized the legal system, and I 159 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 4: encourage folks go by Justice Corrupted. There's an entire chapter 160 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:24,840 Speaker 4: that walks through what the DOJ did, what the FBI did. 161 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:31,680 Speaker 4: But Andrew Klinesmith was seeking a wire tap on Carter Page. 162 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 4: Carter Page was an academic. He was giving foreign policy 163 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 4: advice to the Trump campaign. This is in twenty sixteen, 164 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 4: in the summer and fall of twenty sixteen, and the 165 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 4: basis for the wiretap was carter Page was talking to 166 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:49,839 Speaker 4: some shady Russians. Now, generally speaking, you probably shouldn't talk 167 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:54,200 Speaker 4: to shady Russians. But Andrew Klinesmith engaged in a little 168 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 4: due diligence and he sent an email to the CIA 169 00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 4: and he asked, Hey, is this guy carter Page a 170 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:05,280 Speaker 4: source for the CIA? Now, if you think about it, 171 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 4: the fact that you're talking to shady Russians, ordinarily maybe 172 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 4: that would be a cause for suspicion. But if you're 173 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 4: working for the CIA, if you're doing it on behalf 174 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:18,160 Speaker 4: of the United States government, if you're serving the American 175 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 4: people by talking to shady Russians, that doesn't raise suspicion. 176 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 4: That's actually a good thing. You ought to say, thank you. 177 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 4: So Andrew clin Smith emails the CIA says it's carter 178 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 4: Page a source for you. CIA emails back and says, yes, 179 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 4: he is a source. And Andrew klin Smith he was 180 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 4: such a hard court partisan. He hated Trump so much. 181 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 4: He was in an environment where he was surrounded by 182 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 4: hardcore partisans that hated Trump so much they wanted to 183 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 4: go after him. He takes that email and he alters it, 184 00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:52,080 Speaker 4: and he doesn't alter it slightly. The email says, yes, 185 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 4: carter Page is a source. And Andrew klin Smith changes 186 00:11:56,000 --> 00:12:01,160 Speaker 4: the email to say, no, carter Pages not. So he 187 00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:04,440 Speaker 4: alters it so it says one hundred and eighty degrees 188 00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 4: the opposite of what it said. And then he takes 189 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:10,839 Speaker 4: that fraudulent counterfeit document. He submits it to the federal court, 190 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 4: the FISA Court, and that becomes one of the important 191 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 4: bases for seeking the wiretap. That is an absolute bombshell 192 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 4: of the FBI lying to the American people. And listen, 193 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,560 Speaker 4: did the other people of the FBI lie, not directly, 194 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 4: but they created the environment where the DOJ and the 195 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 4: FBI viewed getting Donald Trump as the preeminent objective, and 196 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 4: so they were willing to ignore the evidence and critically. 197 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 4: Look you look at what Durham said. They had plenty 198 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:52,959 Speaker 4: of indication that this Steel report was garbage, that it 199 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,160 Speaker 4: came for, that it was paid for by the Hillary 200 00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 4: Clinton campaign, that was paid for by the DNC, and 201 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:01,440 Speaker 4: by the way law enforcement and campaign Auto view with 202 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:06,640 Speaker 4: great skepticism. Any OPO document that they receive from someone's 203 00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:10,240 Speaker 4: political opponent doesn't mean it could never be accurate, but 204 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,320 Speaker 4: they ought to recognize whoever prepared this document has every 205 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 4: incentive to lie, to twist the facts. They want to 206 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 4: tear this person down. So we should be skeptical. We 207 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 4: should not accept it as face value. Because DOJ and 208 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,960 Speaker 4: the FBI hated Trump so much, they had none of 209 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:31,640 Speaker 4: that skepticism, and that is a failure in the very 210 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 4: foundations of how law enforcement is supposed to operate. 211 00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 2: The scary part is what you just explained is just 212 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 2: the FBI. So let's move on to the DOJ. Are 213 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 2: they guilty of lying to the American people as well? 214 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 4: Of course they are. And it the DOJ. You had 215 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 4: people like Bruce Orr, whose wife was working with Fusion GPS, 216 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 4: which was the OPO research firm being paid for by 217 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 4: Hillary Clinton, and Bruce Or was an associate Deputy Attorney 218 00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 4: General at the Department of Justice. By the way, under 219 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:03,560 Speaker 4: George W. Bush, I was an Associate Deputy Attorney General 220 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 4: at the Department of Justice. I've had that job as 221 00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:09,160 Speaker 4: an aside. How many times do you have a job 222 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:15,040 Speaker 4: that has that many modifiers. Associate deputy attorney general. It's 223 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 4: a little weird. Government's weird. They call that in DOJ 224 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:22,080 Speaker 4: parlance an ADAG. By the way, there's a more complicated acronym, 225 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 4: which is their multiple associate deputies deputy attorneys general. There's 226 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 4: also one who is the principal Associate Deputy attorney General. 227 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 4: Instead of an ADAG, that person's called a PAYDAG because 228 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:39,520 Speaker 4: government can't exist without acronyms. But Bruce Or was an ADAG. 229 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:44,040 Speaker 4: His wife, Nellie Or, was working for Fusion GPS, which 230 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 4: was on the payroll of Hillary Clinton. And once the 231 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 4: FBI and the Department of Justice stopped dealing with Steele, 232 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 4: who created the Steel dossier because he had all sorts 233 00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:59,680 Speaker 4: of reasons to be untrustworthy, Bruce Or and Nelly Or 234 00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 4: became a back channel and he didn't tell anyone, so 235 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 4: it was the Department of Justice again. He was perfectly 236 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 4: willing to circumvent the process because he hated Donald Trump. 237 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 4: And it's important to understand the environment. Everyone there thought 238 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:18,560 Speaker 4: there is no universe in which Trump can win, so 239 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:22,160 Speaker 4: we can use all of government to attack him because 240 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 4: Hillary Clinton will be president and we'll have some radical 241 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:28,960 Speaker 4: left winger as attorney general, and so whatever we do, 242 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 4: we'll never see the light of day. No one will 243 00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 4: know it because Trump will lose. We're safe. And then 244 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:38,960 Speaker 4: suddenly Trump won and they're like, holy crap, what do 245 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 4: we do? What do we do? And they made a decision. 246 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 4: So November December twenty sixteen January twenty seventeen, they had 247 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:49,440 Speaker 4: a moment where they could have said, you know, abandon ship, 248 00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 4: let's stop this attack. He's the newly elected president. Let's 249 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:56,160 Speaker 4: respect democracy. He's the president. We don't like him, but 250 00:15:56,200 --> 00:16:01,600 Speaker 4: he's the president. Let's accept as legitimate. Not only didn't 251 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:05,400 Speaker 4: do that, they made the decision to do everything they 252 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 4: could to tear him down. This was, I believe, the 253 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:14,720 Speaker 4: greatest internal coup within the federal government that our nation 254 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 4: has ever seen. And Trump said they're wiretapping me. He 255 00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 4: was right. Trump said they're coming after me. He was right. 256 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 4: Trump said this is a witch hunt. He was right. Listen. 257 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 4: There are lots of things that Trump says and does 258 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 4: that I don't agree with, but the behavior of DOJ 259 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 4: and the FBI in this investigation is, without exaggeration, the 260 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 4: most shameful chapter in the history of the Department of 261 00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 4: Justice and the FBI, and there is yet to be 262 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:49,880 Speaker 4: real accountability for this absolute abuse of power. 263 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:54,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's truly incredible to see two organizations use 264 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:58,120 Speaker 2: this way. Let's start talking about individuals. Senator James Comy. 265 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 2: Did he lie to the American people. 266 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 4: Repeatedly, shamelessly, unabashedly. Look James Comy as someone who is 267 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:10,760 Speaker 4: deeply political. He was deeply political under George W. Bush. 268 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 4: He was Deputy Attorney General under George W. Bush. He 269 00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:18,480 Speaker 4: was deeply political under Barack Obama. He held his big 270 00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 4: press conference where he said, Okay, Hillary violated the law 271 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 4: when she dealt with her emails, but it's not enough 272 00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:28,360 Speaker 4: to indict. That was not the job of an FBI director. 273 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:33,399 Speaker 4: But I think James Comy fancies himself as j Edgar Hoover. 274 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 4: He wanted to be the most powerful FBI director ever. 275 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 4: He wanted to use his power. And look, when I 276 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:45,800 Speaker 4: look back to the Trump presidency, there are many many 277 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:49,320 Speaker 4: big victories that we won during the Trump presidencies, victories 278 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:51,639 Speaker 4: that I worked hand in hand with Donald Trump to 279 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:55,520 Speaker 4: win big victories for the American people. When I look 280 00:17:55,600 --> 00:18:00,639 Speaker 4: back at mistakes in the Trump presidency. There were multiple, 281 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 4: but I don't know that any was as big as 282 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 4: the fact that Trump did not fire James Comy on 283 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:10,639 Speaker 4: January twentieth, twenty seventeen. I believe Donald Trump should have 284 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:13,399 Speaker 4: called James Comy in and said, mister Comy, thank you 285 00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 4: for your service to the nation. Your services are no 286 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:18,760 Speaker 4: longer required. And the Trump White House, I think, very 287 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:23,040 Speaker 4: naively believe they could co opt James Comy, they could 288 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:24,920 Speaker 4: bring him on board, they could make him on board 289 00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:28,840 Speaker 4: the team, and they did not understand the radiant ambition 290 00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:33,000 Speaker 4: in James Comy, where Komy went in wanting to take 291 00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:35,360 Speaker 4: down Donald Trump, and he should have. If he'd been 292 00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:38,800 Speaker 4: fired on day one, it would have saved the Trump 293 00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:44,879 Speaker 4: administration thousands upon thousands of hours of misery. And it 294 00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 4: was a serious mistake because Comy was more than happy 295 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:52,159 Speaker 4: to try to weaponize the FBI against a president he 296 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:53,720 Speaker 4: did not like and did not agree with. 297 00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 2: Let's talk about the biggest liar of all who started all, 298 00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:02,879 Speaker 2: Hillary Clinton, And should Hillary Clinton have actually not just 299 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:07,160 Speaker 2: be called a liar center, but should she be held 300 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:11,160 Speaker 2: accountable for what she did? And let me remind everybody 301 00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:16,159 Speaker 2: of what Hillary Clinton said about this lie back in 302 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 2: the day. In one of her interviews. 303 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:21,119 Speaker 5: To our future, the damage being done to our values, 304 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:24,119 Speaker 5: our institutions, and try to think of ways that I 305 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:26,119 Speaker 5: can help those who are on the front lines of 306 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 5: the fight. 307 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:30,800 Speaker 6: Your name doesn't come up much on any campaign, except 308 00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 6: for Donald Trump's lock her up is still a big 309 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 6: popular line. 310 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:40,960 Speaker 5: I believe he knows he's an illegitimate president. He knows 311 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:45,920 Speaker 5: he knows that there were a bunch of different reasons 312 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:48,920 Speaker 5: why the election turned out the way it did, and 313 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 5: I take responsibility for those parts of it. 314 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:51,840 Speaker 4: That I should. 315 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:53,919 Speaker 5: But Jane, it was like applying for a job and 316 00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:59,359 Speaker 5: getting sixty six million letters of recommendation and losing to 317 00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:03,760 Speaker 5: a corrupt human tornado, And so I know that he 318 00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:06,959 Speaker 5: knows that this wasn't on the level. I don't know 319 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 5: that we'll ever know everything that happened, but clearly we 320 00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:12,120 Speaker 5: know a lot and are learning more every day, and. 321 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:14,040 Speaker 4: History will probably sort it all out. 322 00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 5: So of course he's obsessed with me, and I believe 323 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:20,320 Speaker 5: that it's a guilty conscience insomuch as. 324 00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:24,160 Speaker 2: It's a guilty conscience quoting knows he's an illegitimate president. 325 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:27,800 Speaker 2: I know that he knows this wasn't on the level. 326 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 2: History will probably sort it all out when we now 327 00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:31,920 Speaker 2: know the history. 328 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:35,560 Speaker 4: Senator Well, I got to say, in twenty twenty three, 329 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:39,840 Speaker 4: I'm shocked to hear a Democrat saying that someone is 330 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:44,960 Speaker 4: an illegitimate president, because I thought that was like undermining democracy. 331 00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:50,120 Speaker 4: I thought that was election denihalism. And you'll recall when 332 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:54,959 Speaker 4: I went last year, last October on the View it 333 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,960 Speaker 4: was all right, candidly, you want to talk about some 334 00:20:58,000 --> 00:20:59,680 Speaker 4: of the most fun twenty four hours I had in 335 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:00,399 Speaker 4: my life. 336 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 1: That was a great trip for you. 337 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:09,119 Speaker 4: So on October evening at CRISP beautiful Fall evening, I 338 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:11,240 Speaker 4: go up to New York City and I go to 339 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:16,440 Speaker 4: Yankee Stadium, and in Yankee Stadium, I watch my Houston 340 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:21,160 Speaker 4: Astros sweep the Yankees. In Yankee Stadium, it's game four. 341 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,640 Speaker 4: We won four games in a row in the Alcs, 342 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:27,680 Speaker 4: And as you know, I was in the second row 343 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:35,159 Speaker 4: behind home plate, and I was in bright orange Astros colors, 344 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,720 Speaker 4: proudly representing the Astros. And I got to say, there 345 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:40,720 Speaker 4: were at least one hundred, if not more, New Yorkers 346 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:47,640 Speaker 4: who suggested that I do something anatomically impossible. They were 347 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:51,879 Speaker 4: fairly energized. They were fairly pissed. And look my response 348 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:54,159 Speaker 4: when they were mad, I just smile and point up 349 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 4: and say scoreboard, because look, I get it. If you're 350 00:21:57,520 --> 00:21:59,680 Speaker 4: a sports fan and you go into the opposing team, 351 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:03,879 Speaker 4: stay and you sweep them, they're pissed. That was fun, 352 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 4: I will say. And by the way, the press and 353 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:11,240 Speaker 4: the Twitter went crazy with all the people yelling expletives 354 00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 4: at me, they didn't actually write down the hundreds of 355 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:16,800 Speaker 4: New Yorkers who took pictures with me and said, even 356 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 4: in Yankee Stadium, thank you for fighting to save our country. 357 00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 4: Now they also said, I hate the Astras and want 358 00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:24,760 Speaker 4: the Yankees to win. Okay, that's great. That's sports. That's 359 00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:26,719 Speaker 4: the beauty of sports as you root for your teams. 360 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:32,399 Speaker 4: The next day, after we swept the Yankees and went 361 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 4: to the World Series and went on to win the 362 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 4: World Series, not to irritate any of the sore sentiments 363 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,760 Speaker 4: of other teams that did not win last year, but 364 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:43,320 Speaker 4: the next day I went on the View, and the View, 365 00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:47,879 Speaker 4: if anything, the view was more hostile than being in 366 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 4: Yankee Stadium in Game four of the Alcs in Astras, 367 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:56,760 Speaker 4: aren't the view, These rabid left wing women. And by 368 00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:58,640 Speaker 4: the way, they were nasty when the camera was off. 369 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:03,000 Speaker 4: It wasn't even just like that's their persona. They look 370 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 4: at you men, they look at me, they look at conservatives. 371 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:08,400 Speaker 4: They hate us. But one of the things they said 372 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:12,919 Speaker 4: is they screamed, you are election deniers. And I pulled 373 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:15,879 Speaker 4: out quote after quote that I brought with me of 374 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:18,880 Speaker 4: Hillary Clinton saying what you just played, of Joe Biden 375 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:23,879 Speaker 4: saying that George W. Bush was an illegitimate president over 376 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:27,679 Speaker 4: and over again, Democrats saying this, and they didn't know 377 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:30,199 Speaker 4: what to say. In response, They're just like, no, no, 378 00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:33,960 Speaker 4: we have alternate facts. We don't believe democrats have ever 379 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:37,480 Speaker 4: said that. And what's funny. A couple of weeks later, 380 00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:41,239 Speaker 4: Chelsea Clinton, Hillary's daughter, was on the view and they 381 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:44,720 Speaker 4: asked her. They said, Cruz said that your mom denied 382 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:49,040 Speaker 4: the election was legitimate. What do you say to that? 383 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:52,400 Speaker 4: And Chelsea was perfectly happy to repeat their talking points 384 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:55,960 Speaker 4: and say, oh, my mom never said that. Now, mind you, 385 00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:58,920 Speaker 4: what Hillary said is public record. She said that repeatedly, 386 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:03,400 Speaker 4: that he's an illegitim at president. Why because Democrats are 387 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:08,160 Speaker 4: willing to abuse government and to lie when they don't 388 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:09,960 Speaker 4: get the political outcome they want. 389 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 1: No doubt. There's also another part of this. 390 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 2: It's infuriating for I think so many Americans listening center, 391 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:20,879 Speaker 2: and that's the fact you just mentioned obviously Hillary Clinton there, 392 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:24,200 Speaker 2: but you mentioned James call Me. You have Andrew McCabe, 393 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:28,240 Speaker 2: you have Peter Struck, you have Lisa Page How, You've 394 00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:33,479 Speaker 2: got the FISA judges. You've brought Rod Rosenstein, you have 395 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:38,920 Speaker 2: Christopher Ray, you have Lisa Monico, you have John Brennan, 396 00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:44,840 Speaker 2: You've got James Clapper, Christopher Steele, and John Podesta. 397 00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:48,680 Speaker 4: So, Ben, are you trying to piss me off like 398 00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:52,600 Speaker 4: like with with that array of names. I'm sitting here 399 00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:55,479 Speaker 4: very common, peaceful, and you and you really are like 400 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:56,800 Speaker 4: pushing my buttons. 401 00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:00,280 Speaker 2: It's my job, sir, it's my I get paid to 402 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 2: do this. But you listen to that list. 403 00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:05,760 Speaker 4: And by the way, the dollar an hour we pay you, 404 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:06,880 Speaker 4: we'll double it right now. 405 00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 1: Thank you? Good? 406 00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:09,680 Speaker 2: That was I like that because that was a hell 407 00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:12,119 Speaker 2: of a montage of guilty people I just mentioned. So 408 00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:15,119 Speaker 2: I deserve a bonus for that. But there are people 409 00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:17,360 Speaker 2: that are going to listen. They're going to say, look, 410 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:21,040 Speaker 2: it's infuriating that this Germ report is confirming that Russian 411 00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 2: collusion was a lie, and if you have a brain, 412 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:27,639 Speaker 2: we all knew that since day one. But knowing that 413 00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 2: these people that we just mentioned were guilty of doing 414 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:36,000 Speaker 2: this and they're all going to walk around, is there 415 00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:38,919 Speaker 2: going to be any accountability for them? 416 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 4: Sadly, I'm not convinced there will be. The New York 417 00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 4: Times and the Washington Post both won Pulitzer prizes for 418 00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:54,160 Speaker 4: their reporting on this garbage Russian collusion story. We now 419 00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 4: know from the Durham Report that the story was a 420 00:25:56,800 --> 00:26:01,440 Speaker 4: lie from day one, and yet I feel absolutely certain 421 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 4: the New York Times will not return their Pulitzer. The 422 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 4: Washington Posts will not return their pulitzer. The reporters who 423 00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:12,040 Speaker 4: reported on lies, who were complicit with lies, who these 424 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:15,280 Speaker 4: FBI and DJ people were leaking to like sieves to 425 00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 4: spread the lies, they will continue to go to parties, 426 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:22,240 Speaker 4: to go to professional gatherings where they will be introduced 427 00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:27,400 Speaker 4: as the Pulitzer Prize winning journalist and they are literally 428 00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:31,840 Speaker 4: lying propagandists. If there was a shred of integrity in 429 00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:34,000 Speaker 4: the New York Times of the Washington Post, they'd return 430 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 4: the Pulitzers and say we're sorry, we're participating a lie. 431 00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:41,159 Speaker 4: The chances of that happening are zero because there's not 432 00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:45,000 Speaker 4: a shred of integrity in them. But I will say also, 433 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:48,960 Speaker 4: as I read this report, listen, I'm glad that Durham 434 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:53,880 Speaker 4: has cataloged that these were lies, but I'm also angry. 435 00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:58,760 Speaker 4: Durham was not a blogger. He was not someone who 436 00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:01,679 Speaker 4: was just entitled to write some thoughts. He was not 437 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:06,560 Speaker 4: a podcaster. By the way, Durham was a special counsel 438 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:12,000 Speaker 4: with the power to bring indictments. I read this whole thing, 439 00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:15,199 Speaker 4: and I say, mister Durham, who the hell did you indict? 440 00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:20,320 Speaker 4: If we saw a massive dishonesty, if we saw a 441 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:23,359 Speaker 4: massive lie to the American people, if we saw a 442 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:27,040 Speaker 4: massive corruption of the Department of Justice and the FBI, 443 00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:31,679 Speaker 4: bring an indictment, stand up and hold people to accountable. 444 00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 4: And there's a paragraph in Durham's report that makes me 445 00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:38,320 Speaker 4: particularly angry. I just want to read it. This report 446 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:42,359 Speaker 4: does not recommend any wholesale changes in the guidelines and 447 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 4: policies that the Department and the FBI now have in 448 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 4: place to ensure proper conduct and accountability in how counterintelligence 449 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:55,480 Speaker 4: activities are carried out. Rather, it is intended to accurately 450 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:58,720 Speaker 4: describe the matters that fell under our review and to 451 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:01,600 Speaker 4: assist the Attorney Gen in determining how the Department and 452 00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:05,919 Speaker 4: the FBI can do a better, more credible job. I 453 00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 4: gotta admit reading that is just. It puts me to sleep, 454 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:14,040 Speaker 4: but let me continue. Ultimately, of course, meeting these responsibilities 455 00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:17,040 Speaker 4: comes down to the integrity of the people who take 456 00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:19,920 Speaker 4: an oath to follow the guidelines. As an aside, their 457 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 4: integrity was zero because they didn't follow the guidelines and 458 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:28,160 Speaker 4: they corrupted the process and policies currently in place, guidelines 459 00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 4: that date from the time of Attorney General Levi and 460 00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 4: that are designed to ensure the rule of law is upheld. 461 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 4: As such, the answer is not the creation of new rules, 462 00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:45,120 Speaker 4: but a renewed fidelity to the old. What utter and 463 00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:51,560 Speaker 4: complete garbage if we've seen Look, I'm an alumnus to 464 00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:54,560 Speaker 4: the Department of Justice. I revere the Department of Justice. 465 00:28:54,960 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 4: In my role as Senator, I hear routinely from FBI agents, 466 00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:07,160 Speaker 4: from DOJ prosecutors who are furious. How was our institution 467 00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 4: of law enforcement that is decidedly apolitical? How was it 468 00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:18,000 Speaker 4: turned into corrupt and dishonest machinery that became the legal 469 00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:23,400 Speaker 4: attack dogs of the Hillary Clinton Nappo Research Department. What 470 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,560 Speaker 4: John Durham did is say, this is all terrible, but 471 00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:29,200 Speaker 4: we're not going to do anything. Nobody's going to be indicted, 472 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:31,240 Speaker 4: nobody's going to be fired, nobody's going to be held 473 00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 4: to consequence. Oh it's a shame. We just saw a 474 00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 4: bloodless coup unfold in our Department of Justice and FBI. 475 00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:44,800 Speaker 4: But test tasks. Let's try not to do that again. 476 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:51,240 Speaker 4: Nobody's held accountable. That makes me angry. Mister Durham. You're 477 00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:54,200 Speaker 4: not in charge of writing op eds. You have the 478 00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:56,600 Speaker 4: power of convening a grand jury, you have the power 479 00:29:56,600 --> 00:30:02,000 Speaker 4: of bringing indictments, and you failed in that task. What 480 00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:07,360 Speaker 4: you described was an absolute dereliction of duty, and yet 481 00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:09,120 Speaker 4: nobody was held to account for it. 482 00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:12,080 Speaker 2: There's another name that it has to be brought up, 483 00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:14,600 Speaker 2: and that is the name of former President United States 484 00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:18,040 Speaker 2: of America, Barack Obama. And I want to talk about 485 00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:22,240 Speaker 2: what this report also says about his leadership. But before 486 00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:24,320 Speaker 2: I get to that, let me tell you about Patriot Mobile. 487 00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:28,040 Speaker 2: I had the privilege of going and playing in the 488 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:31,080 Speaker 2: folds of the fall in golf tournament with Patriot Mobile 489 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:34,800 Speaker 2: on Monday, And I can tell you that it is 490 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:39,520 Speaker 2: really fun to work with a company that takes money 491 00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 2: every month from your bill and they give it back 492 00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:47,160 Speaker 2: to support causes that we stand with.

Let's talk about one player here that really 517 00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:17,280 Speaker 2: has kind of I think he's really gone away kind 518 00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:20,560 Speaker 2: of unscathed from all of this. And that's a guy 519 00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:24,040 Speaker 2: who knew all about what was happening here, Former President 520 00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 2: Barack Obama. How guilty is he of allowing all this 521 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:30,280 Speaker 2: to start because he's the one that knew they were 522 00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 2: spying on the Trump campaign. He was the one that 523 00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:36,360 Speaker 2: was briefed on all of this. He was the one 524 00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:39,800 Speaker 2: that allowed them to keep moving forward when Donald Trump 525 00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:41,440 Speaker 2: was running against Hillary Clinton. 526 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:47,880 Speaker 4: So Barack Obama sadly was utterly complicit in this entire 527 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:51,640 Speaker 4: scheme to abuse the Department of Justice, to abuse the 528 00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:56,320 Speaker 4: FBI to target his political opponent, to target the Republican 529 00:32:56,360 --> 00:33:00,360 Speaker 4: nominee who was running against Hillary Clinton to succeed him. 530 00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:03,600 Speaker 4: Let me tell you what the Durham Report concluded. The 531 00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:07,160 Speaker 4: Durham Report concluded that the FBI was tipped off about 532 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:11,000 Speaker 4: the Hillary Clinton's plan to quote villify Donald Trump by 533 00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:15,040 Speaker 4: tying him to Russian President Vladimir Putin, but it didn't 534 00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:19,520 Speaker 4: investigate that tip. According to the report, the FBI received 535 00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:25,200 Speaker 4: quote highly significant intelligence from a quote trusted foreign source 536 00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:30,320 Speaker 4: pointing to a Clinton campaign plan to villify Trump by 537 00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:33,200 Speaker 4: tying him to Vladimir Putin so as to divert attention 538 00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:36,160 Speaker 4: from her own concerns relating to her use of a 539 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:41,360 Speaker 4: private email server. The report continued, quote, Unlike the FBI's 540 00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:43,800 Speaker 4: opening of a full investigation of unknown members of the 541 00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:48,479 Speaker 4: Trump campaign based on raw, uncorroborated investigation, in this separate 542 00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:53,640 Speaker 4: matter involving a purported Clinton campaign plan, the FBI never 543 00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:59,400 Speaker 4: opened any type of inquiry, issued any taskings, employed any 544 00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:03,760 Speaker 4: analytical personnel, or produced any analytical products in connection with 545 00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:08,520 Speaker 4: the information. The report said that the lack of action 546 00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:11,920 Speaker 4: by the FBI was despite the fact that the Clinton 547 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:18,560 Speaker 4: plan was so significant that CIA Director John Brennan briefed 548 00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:26,120 Speaker 4: President Barack Obama, Vice President Joe Biden, Attorney General Lorette Lynch, 549 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:33,120 Speaker 4: FBI Director James Comy and other senior government officials days 550 00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:38,120 Speaker 4: after the tip was received. And the report continues quote 551 00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:41,520 Speaker 4: the speed and manner in which the FBI opened an 552 00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:47,640 Speaker 4: investigated crossfire hurricane during the presidential election season based on raw, unanalyzed, 553 00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:54,480 Speaker 4: and uncorroborated intelligence also reflected a noticeable departure from how 554 00:34:54,480 --> 00:35:00,239 Speaker 4: it handled matters involving Hillary Clinton. This was corruption that 555 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:05,080 Speaker 4: went to the very top, and yet John Durham held 556 00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:06,600 Speaker 4: nobody accountable. 557 00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:08,600 Speaker 1: No one. 558 00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:11,719 Speaker 2: And that's the part here that I think people say 559 00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:14,399 Speaker 2: is did he not have the power? And there's been 560 00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:17,400 Speaker 2: debate on this. There's some saying he really didn't have 561 00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:21,399 Speaker 2: the power to do anything. There's others saying that's bs. Yes, 562 00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:24,840 Speaker 2: he had the power to do something. Senator, give me 563 00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:29,840 Speaker 2: your reaction to that idea. Did what were his hands tied? 564 00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:34,120 Speaker 2: In your opinion? Is there two sides this story that maybe, hey, 565 00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:36,040 Speaker 2: all they would allow him to do is write what 566 00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:40,200 Speaker 2: is in essence a fact finding out ed of Okay, 567 00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 2: here's what I found and this is what we've got. 568 00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:44,160 Speaker 1: But no one's going to get in trouble for anything. 569 00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 4: What utter nonsense. He was a special prosecutor. He could 570 00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:53,560 Speaker 4: indicte anybody. He could indicite you, Ben ferguson tonight. Now, 571 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:57,239 Speaker 4: presumably there's no evidence, or at least not much, that 572 00:35:57,280 --> 00:35:59,320 Speaker 4: you've committed a felony recently. 573 00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:02,040 Speaker 1: Sure, I'm a conservative that speaks out. Isn't that enough? 574 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:02,239 Speaker 2: Now? 575 00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:03,160 Speaker 1: I thought that's them? 576 00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:06,400 Speaker 4: You know, it may well be. But look, he was 577 00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:09,239 Speaker 4: a special prosecutor, had the ability to convene a grand 578 00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:12,600 Speaker 4: jury and bring charges against anyone who committed illegal conduct. 579 00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:18,000 Speaker 4: He didn't do that. There are some that are debating, well, 580 00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:22,720 Speaker 4: it wasn't his job to recommend reforms to the Department 581 00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:27,160 Speaker 4: of Justice procedures or the FBI procedures. And on some 582 00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:30,919 Speaker 4: level that's true, and on some level, who cares. If 583 00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:33,399 Speaker 4: he wanted to recommend reforms, he could have. He could 584 00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:35,120 Speaker 4: have written that in the report and said, you know what, 585 00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:38,120 Speaker 4: the current rules don't work, change them. That would have 586 00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:41,200 Speaker 4: been something. But instead he went out of his way 587 00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:44,759 Speaker 4: to say, Nope, the rules are fine, it's just here 588 00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:48,439 Speaker 4: the bastards didn't follow them. And by the way, I'm 589 00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:51,239 Speaker 4: not going to prosecute or indict any of them for 590 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:54,239 Speaker 4: not following them. We just are going to say in 591 00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:58,160 Speaker 4: the future, it would be nice if people followed the rules. Now, 592 00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:02,719 Speaker 4: that's true, but the job of a special prosecutor is 593 00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:06,440 Speaker 4: to hold people to account. And I'm sitting here saying, 594 00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:16,200 Speaker 4: we saw an attempt to mount a legal overthrow of 595 00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:22,920 Speaker 4: our government, a legal undermining of democracy, both during the 596 00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:27,120 Speaker 4: twenty sixteen election and after the twenty sixteen election. And 597 00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:32,000 Speaker 4: at this point, who's being prosecuted, Who's going to jail, 598 00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:37,560 Speaker 4: who's facing the consequences for that lawless attempt to prevent 599 00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:40,880 Speaker 4: the legitimate election of a president and then their topple 600 00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:45,320 Speaker 4: a legitimately elected president. And the answer is utterly nobody. 601 00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:47,560 Speaker 4: But you know what, The New York Times in Washington 602 00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:50,040 Speaker 4: Post had Pulitzer prizes, So that's good for them. 603 00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:51,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, at least they got that. 604 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:54,879 Speaker 2: One other question I want to ask you, and that's 605 00:37:54,920 --> 00:38:00,719 Speaker 2: about the rewriting of this story from the media. There 606 00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:04,880 Speaker 2: was an interesting commentary that was put out by CNN 607 00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:07,400 Speaker 2: by Jake Tapper, and there were people that wanted to 608 00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:11,840 Speaker 2: give him credit for this. My initialy reaction and granted 609 00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:14,920 Speaker 2: full disclosure. I worked with Jake for seven years as 610 00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:19,319 Speaker 2: a conservative commentator find the Comedies at CNN, But I 611 00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:21,719 Speaker 2: don't give him credit for saying this because if they 612 00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:24,959 Speaker 2: would have done their damn jobs early on, they would 613 00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:28,279 Speaker 2: have known the story they were selling to undermine democracy 614 00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:31,040 Speaker 2: and undermining the presidency for the entire time Donald Trump 615 00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:31,840 Speaker 2: was president. 616 00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:32,600 Speaker 1: Was a lie. 617 00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:34,640 Speaker 2: And now all of a sudden, I'm like, oh, okay, well, 618 00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:37,040 Speaker 2: now we're gonna maybe come clean and say it was 619 00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:38,880 Speaker 2: somehow there's fault, their fault. 620 00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:41,160 Speaker 1: Listen to this, and then I want to get your reaction, 621 00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:41,799 Speaker 1: for it is. 622 00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:44,040 Speaker 7: Now here, it has dropped, and it might not have 623 00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:46,680 Speaker 7: produced everything of what some Republicans hold for. It is 624 00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:51,400 Speaker 7: regardless devastating to the FBI, and to a degree it 625 00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:53,280 Speaker 7: does exonerate Donald Trump. 626 00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:54,640 Speaker 4: Let's bring in CNNs. 627 00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:59,719 Speaker 2: I mean, you hear it there and it exonerates Donald Trump.

You know this Duram report's dropped 657 00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:35,040 Speaker 2: and it concluded the FBI never should have launched a 658 00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:38,239 Speaker 2: Trump probe in the first place, and the report exonerate 659 00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:42,920 Speaker 2: Donald Trump. Uh, and now we're gonna read it for you. 660 00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:45,440 Speaker 2: These guys were selling this, and as a member of 661 00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:48,520 Speaker 2: in the media, it makes me livid to see them 662 00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:50,080 Speaker 2: all of a sudden come out and be like, oh, well, 663 00:40:50,080 --> 00:40:52,080 Speaker 2: good job, now you got to tell the truth. They 664 00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:55,200 Speaker 2: undermined a president and the Republican Party and conservatives and 665 00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:57,880 Speaker 2: democracy for years. 666 00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:03,440 Speaker 4: Jake Tapper conflicted views on I've known Jake for twenty 667 00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:06,440 Speaker 4: five years. There was a time when he was a 668 00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:09,200 Speaker 4: young cub reporter, when he actually wanted to be a journalist, 669 00:41:09,280 --> 00:41:12,120 Speaker 4: when he cared about reporting the news, when he had integrity. 670 00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:18,239 Speaker 4: Once Trump became president, it broken. Jake is a shattered 671 00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:21,359 Speaker 4: husk of who he was. He hates Trump so much 672 00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:26,200 Speaker 4: that he's embraced He's been part of CNN's self immolation, 673 00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:30,040 Speaker 4: where he no longer reports on news. He is instead 674 00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:35,799 Speaker 4: a rabid partisan. So I'm glad he said quote that 675 00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:39,719 Speaker 4: this report is devastating to the FBI and to a 676 00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:43,799 Speaker 4: degree it does exonerate Donald Trump. That was accurate. You 677 00:41:43,840 --> 00:41:46,600 Speaker 4: know what Jake didn't say, And let me say on 678 00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:49,920 Speaker 4: behalf of CNN I apologize for spending four years lying 679 00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:53,200 Speaker 4: to you every day about this information. I apologize for 680 00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:56,680 Speaker 4: CNN not caring about the countervailing facts. I apologize for 681 00:41:56,760 --> 00:42:01,040 Speaker 4: CNN not investigating those facts. I apologize for CNN repeating 682 00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:05,279 Speaker 4: the unverified leaks and lies that advanced this story that 683 00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:09,000 Speaker 4: was based on total fabrication. I apologize for CNN not 684 00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:12,920 Speaker 4: being journalists, not reporting news, not in fact reporting that 685 00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:15,640 Speaker 4: this came from Hillary Clinton, that this came from the DNC, 686 00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:18,480 Speaker 4: not reporting that the Steel report was an utter and 687 00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:21,800 Speaker 4: complete lie, not telling you anything of the truth, because 688 00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:24,800 Speaker 4: we hate Donald Trump so much that we instead said, 689 00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:30,160 Speaker 4: did you hear there's a pe tape? Ooh oh wow, 690 00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:34,879 Speaker 4: Like we played in an earlier verdict SNL Saturday Night 691 00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:39,520 Speaker 4: Live when they played this like CNN fantasy version for 692 00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:43,839 Speaker 4: liberals to like, ooh, look at this bad thing, like 693 00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:47,600 Speaker 4: when SNL is making fun of them. It's a disaster. 694 00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:50,120 Speaker 4: And so I'm glad. Jake Tapper issued a sentence that 695 00:42:50,160 --> 00:42:53,279 Speaker 4: acknowledged this. By the way, wasn't just Jake Tapper, other 696 00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:57,759 Speaker 4: media outlets CBS News quote. After nearly four years of investigation, 697 00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:00,680 Speaker 4: special counsel John Durham found that the FBI I lacked 698 00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:06,000 Speaker 4: actual evidence to investigate then candidate Donald Trump's campaign in 699 00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:10,719 Speaker 4: twenty sixteen and relied on leeds quote funded by political 700 00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:15,799 Speaker 4: opponents instead. That seems bad. It's almost like CBS should 701 00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:19,680 Speaker 4: not have spent six years reporting on this garbage CNN's 702 00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:26,040 Speaker 4: Aaron Perez quote. The bottom line in this the investigation 703 00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:29,200 Speaker 4: found that the FBI failed in many many ways. Well, 704 00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:31,760 Speaker 4: wait a second, CNN failed in many many ways, CBS 705 00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:36,960 Speaker 4: failed in many many ways, NBC, ABC, MSNBC all failed 706 00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:42,160 Speaker 4: in many many ways. MSNBC every night had fantasy sessions 707 00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:48,120 Speaker 4: about Trump Russia collusion. And by the way, it's not 708 00:43:48,320 --> 00:43:53,240 Speaker 4: just the corporate media democrats Adam Schiff said in twenty 709 00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:57,640 Speaker 4: eighteen quote, there's plenty of evidence of collusion or conspiracy 710 00:43:57,680 --> 00:44:04,200 Speaker 4: in plain sight. Apparently there wasn't no, there was no evidence. 711 00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:06,719 Speaker 4: It was made up. It was made up by the 712 00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:10,240 Speaker 4: opera researchers of Hillary Clinton. But Adam Schiff was happy 713 00:44:10,239 --> 00:44:11,759 Speaker 4: to get on TV and screaming about it. Here's what 714 00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:16,360 Speaker 4: Chuck Schumer said in twenty eighteen quote, A single ominous 715 00:44:16,440 --> 00:44:20,719 Speaker 4: question now hangs over the White House. What could possibly 716 00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:24,080 Speaker 4: cause President Trump to put the interests of Russia over 717 00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:29,200 Speaker 4: those of the United States. Quote. Millions of Americans will 718 00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:33,200 Speaker 4: continue to wonder if the only possible explanation for this 719 00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:38,840 Speaker 4: dangerous behavior is the possibility that President Putin holds damaging 720 00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:43,399 Speaker 4: information over President Trump. Look, I got to admit this 721 00:44:43,520 --> 00:44:49,279 Speaker 4: pisses me off. Democrats were lying, the DOJ launched an 722 00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:54,440 Speaker 4: investigation with no evidence based on partisan hatred, and the 723 00:44:54,560 --> 00:45:01,279 Speaker 4: corporate media amplified those lies shamelessly. It is an utter 724 00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:04,480 Speaker 4: and complete failure of our system. And nobody's been men 725 00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:08,839 Speaker 4: held to account, nobody's prosecuted, nobody's fired, nobody's lost their job, 726 00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:12,840 Speaker 4: and they continue to do the same going forward. 727 00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:15,600 Speaker 2: This is I have a feeling why it's going to 728 00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:18,360 Speaker 2: end up being a big election your issue, not just 729 00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:22,920 Speaker 2: on the presidential level, but also and Senate and House raises. 730 00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:25,080 Speaker 2: And it should be because this is going to be 731 00:45:25,120 --> 00:45:28,400 Speaker 2: about accountability for the people that did this to this country. 732 00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:30,959 Speaker 2: Don't forget we do this show three days a week, 733 00:45:31,040 --> 00:45:34,400 Speaker 2: so make sure you share this with your family and friends, 734 00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:37,160 Speaker 2: share this on social media wherever you are.
