It's 88 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:05,919 Speaker 2: entitled Clapper allegedly pushed to quote compromised normal steps to 89 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 2: Rush twenty seventeen Ica, despite concerns from an NSSA director, 90 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 2: Gabbert de classified emails exclusively obtained by Fox News Digital 91 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:20,600 Speaker 2: allegedly revealing that this manufactured intelligence assessment was deliberate and 92 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 2: came from the very top. And here's what Tulsa Gabber, 93 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:28,920 Speaker 2: the Director of National Intelligence said, quote the leading figures 94 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:31,799 Speaker 2: of the Russia hoax have spent years deceiving the American 95 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 2: public by presenting their manufactured and politicized assessments as credible intelligence. 96 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 2: The email released today reinforces what we already exposed, the 97 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 2: decision to compromise standards and violate protocols in the creation 98 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 2: of the twenty seventeen, manufactured intelligence assessment was deliberate and 99 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:53,760 Speaker 2: came from the very top. And this was an email 100 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:57,800 Speaker 2: that was sent from Mike Rogers, who was the head 101 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 2: of the NSSA. Was said to the director, sent to 102 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 2: the Director of National Intelligence, James Clapper, was sent to 103 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 2: the CIA Director John Brennan, and was sent to the 104 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 2: FBI Director James Comy. It was sent on December twenty second, 105 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:14,800 Speaker 2: twenty sixteen. Happened to be my forty sixth birthday. So 106 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 2: at seven am on December twenty second, twenty sixteen, here's 107 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 2: what the head of the NSA said quote. I've just 108 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 2: returned from a tdy overseas and had been updated on 109 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 2: the current status of our efforts to produce a joint 110 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:33,039 Speaker 2: product related to Russian attribution and intent for the DNC 111 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 2: DCCC hacks. I know that this activity is on a 112 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 2: fast track and that folks have been working very hard 113 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:44,479 Speaker 2: to put together a product that can be provided to 114 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:48,279 Speaker 2: the President. However, I wanted to reach out to you 115 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 2: directly to let you know of some concerns that I 116 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:56,920 Speaker 2: have with what I am hearing from my folks. Specifically, 117 00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:00,280 Speaker 2: I asked my team if they had sufficient ACTSS to 118 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:04,840 Speaker 2: the underlying intelligence and sufficient time to review that intelligence. 119 00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 2: On both points, my team raised concerns. They were clear 120 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:14,239 Speaker 2: that at the staff level, folks have been forward leading 121 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 2: and trying to ensure that we have an opportunity to 122 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 2: review and weigh in. But I'm concerned that given the 123 00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 2: expedited nature of this activity, my folks aren't fully comfortable 124 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 2: saying that they have had enough time to review all 125 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 2: of the intelligence to be absolutely confident in their assessments. 126 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 2: And Rogers clarified he said in the email. He said 127 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 2: he is quote not saying that we disagree substantively, but 128 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 2: I do want to make sure that when we are 129 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 2: asked in the future whether we can absolutely stand behind 130 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 2: the paper, that we don't have any reason to hesitate 131 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 2: because of the process. I know that you agree this 132 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 2: is something we need to be one hundred percent comfortable 133 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 2: with before we present it to the President. We have 134 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 2: one chance to get this right, and it is critical 135 00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 2: that we do so. And he continued, quote, if the 136 00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 2: intent is to create an integrated product that is CIA 137 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 2: slash FBI slash nsa joint author that we can all defend, 138 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 2: we need a process that allows all of us to 139 00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 2: be comfortable, and I'm concerned that we are not there yet. 140 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 2: And the email continued quote in addition, if NSA is 141 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 2: intended to be a co author of this product, I 142 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 2: personally expect to see even the most sensitive evidence related 143 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:35,079 Speaker 2: to the conclusion. And the email finished by saying, if 144 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 2: the intent is to create a CIO only or a 145 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 2: CIA FBI authored product, then I will stand down on 146 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,959 Speaker 2: these concerns. I would welcome your thoughts on these points 147 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 2: in any adjustments we might make to the process to 148 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 2: ensure we have all the necessary level of confidence in 149 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 2: the final assessment. That's what his email said. And moments 150 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 2: from now you're going to hear the response from the 151 00:08:56,080 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 2: politicized leadership of the Obama intelligence community. 152 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 1: You just read Center the email that kind of opens 153 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 1: all this up. The response email, though, is even more shocking. 154 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 2: Well, as I just read Mike Rogers, who was the 155 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 2: director of the National Security Agency. He said, in writing 156 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 2: in December of twenty sixteen, we have one chance to 157 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,200 Speaker 2: get this right, and it is critical that we do so. 158 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,319 Speaker 2: And he further said, we need a process that allows 159 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 2: all of us to be comfortable, and I'm concerned we 160 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,599 Speaker 2: are not there yet. That's what he said at seven am. 161 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:35,320 Speaker 2: Well later in the day at seven forty three pm, 162 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 2: James Clapper replied to the Roger email and he copied 163 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,679 Speaker 2: Brennan and Coleman and here's what comy, And here's what 164 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 2: Clapper said, quote, understand your concern. It is essential that 165 00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 2: we CIA, slash NSA, slash FBI, slash OD and I 166 00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 2: be on the same page and are all supportive of 167 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:04,719 Speaker 2: the report in the highest tradition of quote. That's our 168 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:10,319 Speaker 2: story and we're sticking to it. He continued this evening. 169 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 2: CIA is provided to the NIC the complete draft generated 170 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 2: by the ad hoc fusion cell. We will facilitate as 171 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 2: much mutual transparency as possible as we complete the report, 172 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 2: but more time is not negotiable. And then I want 173 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:33,320 Speaker 2: you to listen to this next sentence. We may have 174 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 2: to compromise on our quote normal modalities since we must 175 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:45,440 Speaker 2: do this on such a compressed schedule. And then the 176 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 2: email continues, quote, this is one project that has to 177 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 2: be a team sport. Now, Ben, that's a lot of things, 178 00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 2: but it's not intelligence. It's not fair and objective. It's 179 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 2: not trying to get to the facts. It is saying 180 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 2: we must all be on the same page, because, as 181 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 2: he puts it, that's our story and we're sticking to it. 182 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:18,679 Speaker 2: Everyone had to agree, and he said right up at 183 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:23,560 Speaker 2: the front. Look, the more time is not negotiable. We 184 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:25,560 Speaker 2: have to compromise the way we do things. 185 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 3: Why. 186 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:30,319 Speaker 2: He doesn't specify why, but nobody who received this email 187 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 2: was confused. There wasn't an intelligence mandate. There wasn't an 188 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 2: intelligence reason why they had to have this put out 189 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 2: within days. There was a political reason. They had to 190 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,720 Speaker 2: have it completed politically so they can run out and 191 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:47,199 Speaker 2: leak it to the press and do so before Donald J. 192 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 2: Trump was sworn in on January twentieth, the twenty seventeen 193 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:54,440 Speaker 2: that was the urgency. It was a partisan political objective. 194 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 2: They wanted to slam the president. And look what they 195 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:03,199 Speaker 2: said in writing, we don't care if the NSA disagrees, 196 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 2: if they say we're not convinced you're right, if they 197 00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:10,320 Speaker 2: say the intelligence doesn't necessarily back this up. This is 198 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 2: quote a team sport that that's what Clapper said, and 199 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:23,480 Speaker 2: and ultimately the intelligence report they put together assessed that 200 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,680 Speaker 2: quote Russia was responsible for leaking data from the DNC 201 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 2: and the d Triple c H and it failed to 202 00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:37,920 Speaker 2: mension that the FBI and the NSA had previously expressed 203 00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:43,359 Speaker 2: low confidence in that attribution. In other words, they reversed 204 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:47,959 Speaker 2: the determination of the intelligence community for a political objective. 205 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:53,679 Speaker 1: I go back to that that we don't have the time, right, 206 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 1: It was all about the time. Can we talk about 207 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 1: how significant just that is, Like, Hey, we don't have 208 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,720 Speaker 1: the time. This is a time sense of thing. AKA 209 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 1: to pull this off. We've got to expedite this or 210 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 1: we will run out of time to expedite it and 211 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:11,680 Speaker 1: actually have it have influence and do what the ultimate 212 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 1: goal was. 213 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, look, for folks listening, let's just ask yourself a 214 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 2: simple question. Why why didn't they have the time? What 215 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 2: was the rush? We weren't going to war. It's not 216 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 2: like we needed plans. We're dropping the bombs in three days. 217 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 2: There was nothing that was urgent about assessing a retrospective 218 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 2: of what happened in the twenty sixteen election and did 219 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 2: Russia hack the election? That conclusion could have come in December, 220 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:41,520 Speaker 2: It could have come in January. It could have come 221 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:44,000 Speaker 2: in February, March, or April. It could have come in June. 222 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 2: It could have come the next year. I mean it 223 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:48,960 Speaker 2: was a retrospective assessing something, so they had all the 224 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:53,720 Speaker 2: time in the world. However, if you are a hardcore 225 00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 2: partisan leftist who hates Donald Trump, who wants to corrupt 226 00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 2: the intelligence community and law enforcement to attack the incoming 227 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:04,240 Speaker 2: president who had just gotten elected by the American people, 228 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:07,920 Speaker 2: then you have a very clear time clock, which is 229 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 2: January twentieth. Because once January twentieth comes, you're out of 230 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 2: a job. James Clapper isn't going to be there. John 231 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 2: Brennan isn't going to be there. Unfortunately, Comy remained there, 232 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 2: and then that was a serious mistake, one of the biggest, 233 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 2: if not the biggest mistake of the first term of 234 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 2: the Trump administration. But they're all looking at this saying, 235 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 2: if we are going to concoct a lie once we 236 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:35,240 Speaker 2: get to January twentieth, the new team is in place, 237 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 2: the one thing they're not going to be interested in 238 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 2: doing is participating in a political lie to attack the 239 00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 2: newly elected president of the United States. So the only 240 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:49,680 Speaker 2: reason for urgency was a partisan political objective, and that, 241 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 2: at the end of the day, was the reason why 242 00:14:54,520 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 2: they conspired to subvert democracy. By the way, in November 243 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 2: twenty sixteen. Here's what the intelligence community concluded. Quote Russia 244 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 2: was probably not trying to influence the election using cyber means. 245 00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:15,480 Speaker 2: That was a month earlier, not is what they concluded 246 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,640 Speaker 2: weeks before the emails were sent. On December seventh, Clapper's 247 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 2: talking points stated, quote, foreign adversaries did not use cyber 248 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 2: attacks on election infrastructure to alter the US presidential outcome. 249 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:33,840 Speaker 2: That that was just just weeks before this election. On 250 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 2: December eighth, the presidential briefing for President Obama said, quote, 251 00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 2: we assess that Russian and criminal actors did not impact 252 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 2: recent US election results by conducting malicious cyber activities against 253 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:54,400 Speaker 2: the election infrastructure. That was what they were concluding until 254 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:58,120 Speaker 2: they made a political decision, and they made it the 255 00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:00,280 Speaker 2: next day on December ninth, and a meeting in the 256 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 2: Situation room for partisan political reasons, they decided, we're going 257 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 2: to accuse Russia of electing Donald Trump because we hate 258 00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 2: Trump and we want to tear down the incoming administration. 259 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 2: And that is, to use a term the Democrats like, 260 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:19,560 Speaker 2: an absolute assault on democracy. 261 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 1: All right, I want to switch gears center to California. 262 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:28,280 Speaker 1: Democrats are now saying they're going to redistrict in California 263 00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:32,000 Speaker 1: to counter what Texas is doing after they waive the 264 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 1: right the white flag Democrats it in Texas. Now, Gavin 265 00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 1: Newsom is, I guess trying to turn this into like 266 00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 1: a presidential campaign issue for him, where he's like, well, 267 00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 1: if you do acts in Texas, we're gonna we're just 268 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:46,280 Speaker 1: gonna counter it out here in California. The funny part 269 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:50,920 Speaker 1: is they've been jerrymandering in California for decades, and it's 270 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 1: like he's acting like this the first time they'll ever 271 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 1: do it. 272 00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 3: It's pretty laughable. 273 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:58,680 Speaker 2: Well, as we covered on Wednesday's pod, the Texas Democrats 274 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:01,880 Speaker 2: have surrendered. They fled the date, they defeated a quorum, 275 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 2: and yet they were facing serious repercussions from the governor, 276 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:07,800 Speaker 2: from the Speaker of the House that they were facing 277 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:10,160 Speaker 2: five hundred dollars a day fines they had to pay 278 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 2: from their personal personal bank account, not from their campaign accounts. 279 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:18,639 Speaker 2: They were facing the governor declaring their offices vacant and 280 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,359 Speaker 2: replacing them in the state legislature. And they were also 281 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:25,320 Speaker 2: facing being arrested and forcibly having their bodies produced on 282 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:27,200 Speaker 2: the floor of the House. And so the Texas House 283 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:30,920 Speaker 2: Democrats caved and said we're coming back, We're done fighting 284 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:35,360 Speaker 2: that that news had broken. And so then the latest 285 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 2: what has broken just just this week at that is 286 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 2: Gavin Newsom has left leapt forward and Ben, have you 287 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 2: noticed that that Gavin Newsom is just a little bit thirsty. 288 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 1: Yes, it's I mean, this is like, I don't know 289 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,800 Speaker 1: what reincarnation of his career this is. It feels like 290 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:54,439 Speaker 1: it's like seven or eight. But he is obsessed right 291 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:55,520 Speaker 1: now with being in the media. 292 00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:58,119 Speaker 3: I got to say a bit. 293 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,920 Speaker 2: Of advice if any of you got for find yourself 294 00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:05,280 Speaker 2: in the vicinity of Gavin Newsom, under no circumstances should 295 00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:08,399 Speaker 2: you place your body between Governor Newsom and a TV camera, 296 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,199 Speaker 2: he will run you over. You will be roadkill. You 297 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:14,359 Speaker 2: will be an armadilla with a smear in the center 298 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:17,639 Speaker 2: of the highway. Because that man, Oh, if there's a 299 00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 2: headline to be had, he is chasing it. And so 300 00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:23,479 Speaker 2: he's decided he is the great liberal hope. He's going 301 00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:26,359 Speaker 2: to stand up and fight against Texas. I got to say, 302 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:30,159 Speaker 2: as an aside, I've said more than once that I 303 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:35,320 Speaker 2: think we should nominate Gavin Newsom as the Texas realature 304 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:39,000 Speaker 2: of the year, because there is no human being on 305 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:42,879 Speaker 2: planet Earth who has ever sold more homes in the 306 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 2: great State of Texas than Gavin Newsom. He sells thousands 307 00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:49,760 Speaker 2: of homes in Texas every year. It is incredible. All 308 00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:53,000 Speaker 2: he has to do is continue mucking up California and 309 00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:56,080 Speaker 2: people rent you hauls and get the heck out of 310 00:18:56,160 --> 00:19:01,040 Speaker 2: Dodge Well. His latest statement is, okay, Texas, if you redistrict, 311 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 2: California is going to as well, and we're going to 312 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:05,959 Speaker 2: get even more Democrats. Now, let me give you some 313 00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 2: facts that the New York Times won't tell you, that 314 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:13,080 Speaker 2: the Washington Post won't tell you, that CNN won't tell you, 315 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:16,640 Speaker 2: that MSNBC won't tell you that the corporate media does 316 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:20,960 Speaker 2: not want you to know. Virtually every big Democrat state 317 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:28,159 Speaker 2: in the Union is egregiously jerrymanner right now, massively more 318 00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:31,040 Speaker 2: than Republican states. And let's put some numbers to it. 319 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:35,480 Speaker 2: So California in twenty twenty four, fifty eight percent of 320 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 2: California's voted Democrat. The congressional delegation in California has fifty 321 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:46,160 Speaker 2: two members of Congress. It's currently divided forty three Democrats, 322 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 2: nine Republicans. That means fifty eight percent of California voters 323 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 2: get to be represented by eighty three percent of the 324 00:19:55,040 --> 00:20:00,800 Speaker 2: congressional delegation. It's a massive jerrymander. By the way, California 325 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:03,480 Speaker 2: is not alone. If you look at New York, fifty 326 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 2: six percent of New Yorkers voted for Democrats, and yet 327 00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:12,680 Speaker 2: seventy three percent of the congressional delegation is Democrat. Illinois, 328 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 2: Illinois is massive. Fifty four percent of the state vote Democrat. 329 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 2: Illinois is not nearly as Democrat as people think, just 330 00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,560 Speaker 2: fifty four percent. You know how much of the congressional 331 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 2: delegation is Democrat eighty two percent. And I'll tell you 332 00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 2: one of the most stunning is the state of Massachusetts. 333 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 2: State of Massachusetts, you have about thirty six percent of 334 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:37,119 Speaker 2: the state that votes Republican. You know how many members 335 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 2: of Congress that thirty six percent gets. 336 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 3: How many? Zero? 337 00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:45,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, not a single one. There are nine congressional seats 338 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 2: in Massachusetts. All nine are Democrat, none are Republican. That's 339 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:54,160 Speaker 2: a Democrat jerrymander. By the way, Texas, by comparison, so 340 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:58,480 Speaker 2: Texas in twenty twenty four, fifty six percent of Texans 341 00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 2: voted Republican, and the congressional delegation is thirty eight seats, 342 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:07,240 Speaker 2: twenty four of those are Republican, fourteen or Democrat. That 343 00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:11,480 Speaker 2: means fifty six percent of Texas voters are getting sixty 344 00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 2: three percent of the congressional delegation. So it is much 345 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 2: more mild. Sixty three percent in Texas eighty three percent 346 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:23,800 Speaker 2: in California. So it is a massive gerrymander in California. Now, 347 00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:26,920 Speaker 2: what is Texas proposing doing? Well? The Texas legislatures put 348 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:31,240 Speaker 2: out a map to increase the Republican representation by five seats, 349 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 2: so instead of twenty four to fourteen, it will be 350 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:39,800 Speaker 2: twenty nine nine. So we'll add five Republicans, take away 351 00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:43,439 Speaker 2: five Democrats. That will take it from sixty three percent 352 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 2: Republican to seventy six percent Republican. Now, seventy six percent 353 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 2: Republican is an increase from sixty three but it's not 354 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,080 Speaker 2: nearly as much as eighty three percent, which is where 355 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 2: California is. So what does Gavin Newsom say, if you 356 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 2: dare draw map that's not nearly as skewed as California, 357 00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,359 Speaker 2: what are we going to do in California? We're gonna 358 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:11,399 Speaker 2: skew our map even more. Now. To be clear, there 359 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:14,800 Speaker 2: are only nine Republicans elected in California. He has very 360 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 2: few seats to get rid of because it's forty three 361 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:21,520 Speaker 2: nine to begin with. But essentially what he's threatening is, 362 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:24,960 Speaker 2: instead of making it forty three to nine, he wants 363 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,679 Speaker 2: to make it fifty two to zero. He wants to 364 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:32,960 Speaker 2: make one hundred percent of the congressional seats in California Democrat. 365 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 2: That would mean fifty eight percent of the voters in 366 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:39,760 Speaker 2: California get one hundred percent of the congressional delegation and 367 00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 2: the thirty eight percent of Californians that vote Republican get zero. 368 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:48,399 Speaker 2: I'll tell you I took on Gavin Newsom today on 369 00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:51,560 Speaker 2: Twitter and I said, look, if you want to do that, 370 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:54,960 Speaker 2: if California is going to go one hundred percent dem, 371 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:59,159 Speaker 2: why shouldn't Texas go one hundred percent Republican instead of 372 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,119 Speaker 2: going right now at twenty four fourteen. The proposal is 373 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 2: to take it to twenty nine to nine. But if 374 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:08,119 Speaker 2: California is going to do that, Texas ought to go 375 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:10,879 Speaker 2: to thirty eight zero. Now I'm not advocating that. I 376 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:12,920 Speaker 2: actually think neither state should do that. I think you 377 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 2: should have a congressional delegation that reflects the values and 378 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:20,679 Speaker 2: views of the state. But if Democrats are going to 379 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 2: utterly abuse their power to disproportionately favor Democrats in Congress, 380 00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:29,280 Speaker 2: and the only response I think Republican states can have 381 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 2: is to counter that and to be a check in balance. 382 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:34,760 Speaker 2: But of course the media wants you to know none 383 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:35,399 Speaker 2: of these facts. 384 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:37,479 Speaker 3: Let me ask you this question. 385 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 1: If this does continue to go the way that Democrats 386 00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 1: are advocating for it, where they say, hey, forget us, 387 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 1: just like kind of jerry mannering, We're just going to 388 00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:48,720 Speaker 1: go full blown get rid of every Republican district, what 389 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:52,560 Speaker 1: then happens, Like, where does this stop in this insanty? 390 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:56,080 Speaker 1: I do think it's great that the American people now 391 00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:59,160 Speaker 1: understand just how jerrymandered so many Democratic states have been. 392 00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 1: For decades and decades. They didn't even realize how blatant 393 00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:06,359 Speaker 1: it was. Now it's getting the coverage it deserves. But 394 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:09,400 Speaker 1: where does this all end? What's the best case scenario? 395 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:13,760 Speaker 2: Well, look, Republican states have much more room. So if 396 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:18,520 Speaker 2: this becomes an escalation, the Democrats lose because the Democrats 397 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 2: have already jerrymandered the hell out of their states, so 398 00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:24,679 Speaker 2: they don't have that much room to grow. And the 399 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:28,240 Speaker 2: funniest example of that is the Democrat governor of Massachusetts. 400 00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:31,760 Speaker 2: She got all worked up and said, oh, yeah, well, 401 00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:36,879 Speaker 2: if Texas does this, we're going to redistrict too. Massachusetts 402 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:41,359 Speaker 2: has already one hundred percent Democrat in their congressional delegation. 403 00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:47,160 Speaker 2: They have jerrymandered to the maximum extent possible. What exactly 404 00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:51,399 Speaker 2: can Massachusetts do to jerrymander more? There are no Republican 405 00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:54,400 Speaker 2: members of Congress. They elect by design, and it can't 406 00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:57,840 Speaker 2: get any worse. And so if this becomes an escalation, 407 00:24:57,960 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 2: the Democrats lose. Now, interestingly enough, Newsom is mostly playing politics. 408 00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:07,879 Speaker 2: He's mostly wanting headlines. He's mostly wanting to impress Democrat 409 00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:12,320 Speaker 2: presidential primary voters because it ain't complicated. Gavin is running 410 00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:15,359 Speaker 2: in twenty twenty eight. He is running full speed ahead. Now, 411 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:18,760 Speaker 2: what's funny is it's like watching a rerun of Sibyl 412 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:22,280 Speaker 2: Late on TV. He's got one hundred and forty two personalities. 413 00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:26,520 Speaker 2: So on day one he is hard left progressive social 414 00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:30,439 Speaker 2: justice warrior, on day two he is reasonable moderate, and 415 00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 2: today he is partisan partisan gladiator. But he'll do all 416 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:39,360 Speaker 2: of them. He does have a challenge in that California 417 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:43,160 Speaker 2: state law provides that redistricting is not done by the legislature, 418 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:46,639 Speaker 2: which is what the constitution provides, but rather by a 419 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:52,719 Speaker 2: so called independent commission. And so Newsom is proposing putting 420 00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:56,800 Speaker 2: on the ballot changing the map. And Politico did a 421 00:25:56,840 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 2: poll that they released this week and it shows that 422 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:06,720 Speaker 2: California voters prefer keeping an independent line drawing panel to 423 00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:10,960 Speaker 2: determine the state's House seats by nearly a two to 424 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:15,320 Speaker 2: one margin sixty four percent, while only thirty six percent 425 00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 2: of respondents back returning to congressional redistricting authority to state lawmakers. 426 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:22,879 Speaker 2: So Newsom's got a problem because if this goes to 427 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:25,719 Speaker 2: the ballot right now, at least he's got to convince 428 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:30,360 Speaker 2: the voters to allow his partisan power grab. I don't 429 00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:32,760 Speaker 2: think actually Candusom is focused on winning. I think he 430 00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:36,199 Speaker 2: just is trying to show off in Peacock for the 431 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:37,520 Speaker 2: Democrat primary voters. 432 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:38,119 Speaker 3: Center. 433 00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:41,840 Speaker 1: It's time we talk a little bit about Google, and 434 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:46,920 Speaker 1: it is another bombshell that's come out showing massive bias 435 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:50,400 Speaker 1: with Google their search engines. Also the emails that make 436 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:53,879 Speaker 1: it to your inbox and those they decide purposely to 437 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:58,399 Speaker 1: send a spam. There's even shocking revelations now that sending 438 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 1: a firm that sent the same email the same exact wording, 439 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:06,320 Speaker 1: one with a link to a conservative group went to spam, 440 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:09,560 Speaker 1: but if it had a link to a hardcore lefty group, 441 00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:11,680 Speaker 1: it went straight to the top of your inbox. 442 00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 3: How the hell are they getting away with this? 443 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:20,480 Speaker 2: Well, unfortunately it appears to be blatant by us. And listen, 444 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:24,160 Speaker 2: I have long believed that big tech censorship in bias 445 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:27,119 Speaker 2: poses the single greatest threat we have to free speech 446 00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:30,119 Speaker 2: in America and the single greatest threat we have to 447 00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 2: free and fair elections in America. And big tech, the 448 00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:36,639 Speaker 2: giant tech oligarchs have been hardcore leftists, and they have 449 00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:40,960 Speaker 2: abused their monopoly power to try to elect Democrats. And 450 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:46,200 Speaker 2: by far the worst actor in this historically has been Google. 451 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:51,240 Speaker 2: Google openly censors conservative speech, it skews its search results 452 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:56,439 Speaker 2: to favor Democrats. In the twenty sixteen election, the employer 453 00:27:56,600 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 2: for the largest amount of campaign contributions to Hillary Clint 454 00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:03,879 Speaker 2: was Google. And so they are all in. 455 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:04,480 Speaker 3: With the Democrats. 456 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:06,879 Speaker 1: Hold on, hold on, say that again, so people really 457 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 1: understand how biased they are say that one more time. 458 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:14,000 Speaker 2: Okay, in twenty sixteen, think of all of the people 459 00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 2: that made campaign contributions to Donald Trump and to Hillary Clinton. 460 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 2: So when you make a campaign contribution, you report on 461 00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:23,640 Speaker 2: the FEC. You put your name, you put your address, 462 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 2: you put your employer, and any contribution two hundred dollars 463 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 2: and above gets reported. And so then they make reports 464 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 2: and you can see, all right, where does the most 465 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:36,120 Speaker 2: money come from? The number one source, not number two, 466 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 2: not number three, number one source for campaign contributions hard 467 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:44,280 Speaker 2: money contributions to Hillary Clinton was Google. Actually technically was Alphabet, 468 00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:46,760 Speaker 2: which is which is Google's parent company, But that's Google. 469 00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:50,160 Speaker 2: They were her number one donor. And and by the way, 470 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:55,960 Speaker 2: there is a psychologist, Robert Epstein, who I've had testify 471 00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:59,040 Speaker 2: in front of my committee, the Senate Commerce Committee, who 472 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:03,240 Speaker 2: did empirical research on Google and found that Google skewed 473 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 2: search results and moved millions of votes from Donald Trump 474 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 2: to Hillary Clinton. And by the way, doctor Epstein was 475 00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:12,960 Speaker 2: a liberal Democrat who voted for Hillary. He was still 476 00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:15,800 Speaker 2: horrified at the results. Well, the latest report I'm going 477 00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:18,680 Speaker 2: to read from the New York Post quote Google caught 478 00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:23,480 Speaker 2: flagging gop fundraiser emails as suspicious, sending them directly to spam. 479 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 2: Google is added again the GOP campaign donations could be 480 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:30,960 Speaker 2: a casualty. The search giant has been caught this summer 481 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 2: flagging Republican fundraising emails as quote dangerous spam, keeping them 482 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:41,920 Speaker 2: from hitting Gmail users' inboxes, while leaving similar solicitations from 483 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 2: Democrats untouched. A consulting firm warned that's despite repeatedly sparking 484 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 2: headlines and lawsuits in recent years over this allegedly partisan practice. 485 00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:55,560 Speaker 2: This is something, this has been a pattern, it's been 486 00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:57,880 Speaker 2: a problem, it's been going on for a long time, 487 00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:01,960 Speaker 2: and it appears Google is doubling down and continuing to 488 00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:08,120 Speaker 2: block Republican fundraising emails while green lighting Democrat fundraising emails. 489 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:11,800 Speaker 1: It really is incredible, and this just goes, I think, 490 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:15,600 Speaker 1: to the radicalness of the left, whether it's Google or 491 00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 1: We now have a guy that is apparently he was 492 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:22,280 Speaker 1: in the Department of Justice who just decided, I got 493 00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 1: a subway, Salwench, I'm gonna throw it at police officers. 494 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:28,680 Speaker 3: And run away. And now we find out even. 495 00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 1: The people that are still working the deep state are 496 00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:33,960 Speaker 1: willing to do things like this. We've now found out 497 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 1: who he is. He's lost his job, and he's been arrested. 498 00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:41,200 Speaker 2: Well, listen, we've talked a lot on this podcast about 499 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:44,520 Speaker 2: how the Democrats have lost their ever loving mind. They 500 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 2: hate Donald Trump so much that they've just gone to 501 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:51,000 Speaker 2: crazy town that they've taken just about every eighty twenty 502 00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:54,200 Speaker 2: issue in America. They've decided to embrace the twenty percent side. 503 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:56,680 Speaker 2: So when it comes to immigration, there for open borders. 504 00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:01,000 Speaker 2: When it comes to sports, they want boys girls sports. 505 00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:04,040 Speaker 2: When it comes to kids, they want children being sterilized 506 00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:09,280 Speaker 2: and having gender mutilating surgeries. And when it comes to criminals, 507 00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:12,120 Speaker 2: they're in favor of them. They're in favor of releasing 508 00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 2: murderers and rapists and Venezuelan gang members. And the left 509 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:20,080 Speaker 2: right now is losing their mind about d C and 510 00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:23,760 Speaker 2: the fact that Donald Trump is exercising clear constitutional authority, 511 00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:30,080 Speaker 2: clear statutory authority to ensure law and order in d 512 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:32,600 Speaker 2: C and to keep people safe. DC has the fourth 513 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:36,680 Speaker 2: highest murder rate in America. It has a higher murder 514 00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:40,560 Speaker 2: rate than Bogota, Colombia, has a higher murder rate than 515 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:44,040 Speaker 2: Mexico City. The murder rate in Washington, d C is 516 00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:47,640 Speaker 2: six times the murder rate in New York. And yet 517 00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:52,160 Speaker 2: leftists are furious that Trump is saying we're going to 518 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:55,440 Speaker 2: stop murderers. And so what happened this week is you 519 00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:59,640 Speaker 2: had a leftist on the streets who saw a federal 520 00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:02,400 Speaker 2: lawforcement officers and in this case, the Customs and Border 521 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 2: Patrol agent. And this leftist began jumping up and down 522 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:09,239 Speaker 2: and screaming, screaming and cursing at him and calling him 523 00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:12,200 Speaker 2: a fascist, calling him a fascist. And you, if you 524 00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:14,160 Speaker 2: haven't seen the video, you got a picture. This guy 525 00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:16,160 Speaker 2: is jumping up and down, jumping up and down. He's 526 00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:21,480 Speaker 2: wearing a pink polo shirt and these incredibly tight shorts that, 527 00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:25,479 Speaker 2: let me just say it looks like a costume. And 528 00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:28,320 Speaker 2: he's jumping up and down. He's behaving like a five 529 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 2: year old, and he's screaming and screaming at this federal 530 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 2: law enforcement agent. And then he's holding in his hand 531 00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:39,280 Speaker 2: a subway sandwich and he turns to walk away, and 532 00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:41,320 Speaker 2: then he turns around and he just throws as hard 533 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:44,160 Speaker 2: as he can the subway sandwich into the chest of 534 00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:48,240 Speaker 2: the federal law enforcement officer. And then suddenly he realizes, oh, 535 00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:49,960 Speaker 2: maybe that was a mistake and he turns around and 536 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:55,800 Speaker 2: runs away. Well, federal law enforcement pursues him, they catch him, 537 00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:59,880 Speaker 2: and they arrest him. Now this is when the story changes. 538 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:04,760 Speaker 2: Under Joe Biden, nothing would have happened. Under Barack Obama, 539 00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:09,440 Speaker 2: nothing would have happened. Well, under Donald Trump, he's being prosecuted. 540 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 2: He's being prosecuted for a felony. It is assault to 541 00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:16,520 Speaker 2: throw anything at someone. You don't have the right to 542 00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:19,280 Speaker 2: throw something. And even if it is a sandwich, which 543 00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:21,520 Speaker 2: looks a sandwich is not a deadly item, but it 544 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:25,720 Speaker 2: is assault to throw it. And what Pambondi, the Attorney 545 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:28,360 Speaker 2: General said, and what the US Attorney Jeanine Piro said 546 00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:30,320 Speaker 2: is is we're going to protect law enforcement. If you 547 00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:34,320 Speaker 2: assault a law enforcement officer, you will be prosecuted, you 548 00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:36,800 Speaker 2: will go to jail. And then this is where the 549 00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:40,600 Speaker 2: case took a strange turn that this pink polo clad 550 00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:45,080 Speaker 2: jumping up and down nutcase turns out he was actually 551 00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:49,320 Speaker 2: an employee of the Department of Justice, a current employee, 552 00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:52,080 Speaker 2: not now. Ben I used to work at the DOJ. 553 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:55,400 Speaker 2: I've worked a lot of years in law enforcement. It 554 00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:58,280 Speaker 2: is not complicated if you're an employee at the Department 555 00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:02,959 Speaker 2: of Justice to learn to treat federal law enforcement agencies 556 00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 2: with respect. I gotta say, I'm fifty four years old. 557 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:10,200 Speaker 2: I've never had to restrain myself once from a desire 558 00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:14,840 Speaker 2: to assault a federal law enforcement officer. And yet the left, 559 00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:20,160 Speaker 2: they are so radicalized, they're so that their their worldview 560 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:22,480 Speaker 2: is so full of rage and anger that that when 561 00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:27,440 Speaker 2: they see a federal law enforcement officer, they're to stop murderers, there, 562 00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:33,680 Speaker 2: to stop crime. This DOJ employee entered into sandwich gait, 563 00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:37,600 Speaker 2: and I will say I did laugh out loud at 564 00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:40,520 Speaker 2: Janeine Pero when she put out a video saying, well, 565 00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:45,080 Speaker 2: he may have to stick that sandwich somewhere else instead, 566 00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:50,240 Speaker 2: which it was. It was not subtle what she was saying, 567 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:53,879 Speaker 2: as they might say in the South, you know, stick 568 00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:55,640 Speaker 2: it somewhere the sun don't shine. 569 00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:58,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's nice to see that in Washingt d C. 570 00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:01,399 Speaker 1: Certainly in the Trum administration, they're messing around anymore. They're 571 00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:03,799 Speaker 1: going after these criminals and. 572 00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:06,520 Speaker 2: Invest your dad was a cop. I mean, how glad 573 00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:09,160 Speaker 2: are you to see an administration that defends cops and 574 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:10,359 Speaker 2: says you can't assault them. 575 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:13,719 Speaker 1: Absolutely, And it's long overdue for an administration to do this. 576 00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:16,200 Speaker 1: Don't forget we do the show Monday, Wednesday and Friday. 577 00:35:16,280 --> 00:35:20,319 Speaker 1: Makes you download Vertic with Ted Cruise wherever you get 578 00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:22,480 Speaker 1: your podcasts and the Senat and I will see you 579 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:24,520 Speaker 1: on the podcast all week.
