WEBVTT - End The Whistle Blower Scam

0:00:01.000 --> 0:00:15.400
<v Speaker 1>You are entering the freedom hunt, impeachment blast Ada into

0:00:15.440 --> 0:00:18.280
<v Speaker 1>the open with hearings this week that people can actually

0:00:18.320 --> 0:00:22.599
<v Speaker 1>watch the blackout on the whistleblower's name from the media,

0:00:23.040 --> 0:00:27.440
<v Speaker 1>Nicky Haley and the subversives. Democrats are mad and lonely,

0:00:27.880 --> 0:00:30.960
<v Speaker 1>Border patrol arrest drop dramatically, and the fate of DACA.

0:00:31.240 --> 0:00:33.120
<v Speaker 1>That and oh so much more coming up on The

0:00:33.120 --> 0:00:37.400
<v Speaker 1>buck Sexton Show. This is the buck Sexton Show where

0:00:37.400 --> 0:00:40.400
<v Speaker 1>the mission or mission is to decode what really matters

0:00:40.600 --> 0:00:46.960
<v Speaker 1>with actionable intelligence. Mag No mistake, American, You're a great

0:00:47.000 --> 0:00:55.320
<v Speaker 1>American Again the Buck Sexton Show begins, He's a great guy. No,

0:00:57.200 --> 0:01:00.280
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to buck Sexton Show. Everybody, Happy Veterans Day. First

0:01:00.280 --> 0:01:03.320
<v Speaker 1>and foremost, take a moment to thank the veterans in

0:01:03.360 --> 0:01:06.400
<v Speaker 1>your life, Thank someone for their service, and for all

0:01:06.440 --> 0:01:10.000
<v Speaker 1>of you veterans listening, thank you so much for being

0:01:10.600 --> 0:01:14.200
<v Speaker 1>the brave patriots you are and being a part of

0:01:14.240 --> 0:01:19.880
<v Speaker 1>the greatest, most powerful, most just military in the history

0:01:20.080 --> 0:01:25.520
<v Speaker 1>of the world. So we got impeachment weeks starting now.

0:01:26.440 --> 0:01:28.120
<v Speaker 1>This is when all of a sudden things start to

0:01:28.160 --> 0:01:31.360
<v Speaker 1>happen out in the open. You'll see Democrats engaged in

0:01:31.400 --> 0:01:36.040
<v Speaker 1>all kinds of grandstanding. It'll be wall to wall coverage

0:01:36.040 --> 0:01:38.920
<v Speaker 1>by a lot of the news networks. The people who

0:01:38.959 --> 0:01:41.319
<v Speaker 1>are at the top of the news hierarchy in many

0:01:41.319 --> 0:01:44.959
<v Speaker 1>ways are having a Watergate tingle here. Oh water Gate

0:01:45.200 --> 0:01:49.200
<v Speaker 1>is this is when journalism can reassert itself. You see.

0:01:49.440 --> 0:01:55.000
<v Speaker 1>Trump has been a challenge, a direct challenge and affront

0:01:55.040 --> 0:01:58.480
<v Speaker 1>really in their eyes, to the journalistic establishment. In fact,

0:01:58.520 --> 0:02:01.080
<v Speaker 1>I would argue that that's one of the finding characteristics

0:02:01.080 --> 0:02:04.960
<v Speaker 1>of his presidency, his willingness to call them fake news,

0:02:05.120 --> 0:02:08.600
<v Speaker 1>to say what they really are, and not to back

0:02:08.639 --> 0:02:11.679
<v Speaker 1>down when they claim, Oh, it's basically violent. Oh how

0:02:11.680 --> 0:02:16.320
<v Speaker 1>could he say these things about us? It's terrible. Well,

0:02:17.000 --> 0:02:20.440
<v Speaker 1>it turns out the president of the United States can't

0:02:20.440 --> 0:02:24.680
<v Speaker 1>be bullied by the media or can't be persuaded. He

0:02:24.760 --> 0:02:28.679
<v Speaker 1>can't be bought off quite as easily as other Republicans

0:02:28.680 --> 0:02:31.440
<v Speaker 1>in the past, that's for sure. I'm not saying opinion

0:02:31.480 --> 0:02:33.440
<v Speaker 1>doesn't matter to him. The media. Sometimes I worry this

0:02:33.480 --> 0:02:37.480
<v Speaker 1>president does read a little too much from say Maggie

0:02:37.480 --> 0:02:39.840
<v Speaker 1>Haberman in the New York Times. I think he cares

0:02:39.880 --> 0:02:41.880
<v Speaker 1>more than he should, but he cares a lot less

0:02:41.880 --> 0:02:44.840
<v Speaker 1>than any of his predecessors. That is for sure. But

0:02:44.880 --> 0:02:48.720
<v Speaker 1>the journalistic establishment sees this as an opportunity to reassert

0:02:49.760 --> 0:02:52.360
<v Speaker 1>its role in American life, which for decades we've been

0:02:52.360 --> 0:02:55.760
<v Speaker 1>told is to speak truth to power, to unearth that

0:02:55.880 --> 0:03:03.320
<v Speaker 1>which the corrupt, the oppressive want to hide. That's what

0:03:03.400 --> 0:03:07.000
<v Speaker 1>journalism has told us. It is all about for my

0:03:07.240 --> 0:03:09.520
<v Speaker 1>entire life, and I'm sure for the lives of some

0:03:09.600 --> 0:03:11.560
<v Speaker 1>of you listening who are quite a bit older than me.

0:03:12.720 --> 0:03:15.880
<v Speaker 1>That's what they've been teaching people in journalism schools. This

0:03:16.000 --> 0:03:19.160
<v Speaker 1>is what they say about themselves un ironically, mind you,

0:03:19.240 --> 0:03:23.240
<v Speaker 1>on TV on a regular basis. Now is their chance

0:03:24.280 --> 0:03:27.240
<v Speaker 1>to get no small degree of revenge against this president

0:03:27.280 --> 0:03:31.200
<v Speaker 1>who has challenged their sense of who they are their professions, yes,

0:03:31.240 --> 0:03:34.600
<v Speaker 1>but also their role in American society and their role

0:03:35.320 --> 0:03:38.240
<v Speaker 1>in our day to day lives. Journalists are enraged at

0:03:38.240 --> 0:03:41.000
<v Speaker 1>this president because he has pointed out that there is

0:03:41.040 --> 0:03:46.360
<v Speaker 1>no special sect of our fellow Americans who are the honest,

0:03:46.400 --> 0:03:53.120
<v Speaker 1>the just, the true journalists. They don't exist. There's part

0:03:53.200 --> 0:03:55.440
<v Speaker 1>there are partisans, there are activists. There are people who

0:03:56.520 --> 0:03:59.400
<v Speaker 1>do everything that they can in order to push certain agendas.

0:04:00.520 --> 0:04:02.320
<v Speaker 1>But if they can get rid of this president like

0:04:02.320 --> 0:04:05.360
<v Speaker 1>they got rid of Reagan, which I would. I'm sorry Nixon.

0:04:05.400 --> 0:04:07.440
<v Speaker 1>They wish they could have gotten rid of Reagan as

0:04:07.440 --> 0:04:09.720
<v Speaker 1>they pushed Nixon out. Not that Nixon didn't give them

0:04:09.720 --> 0:04:12.920
<v Speaker 1>plenty to work with. The certainly did, but that would

0:04:12.960 --> 0:04:16.279
<v Speaker 1>be a restoration in their minds to the old order,

0:04:16.320 --> 0:04:20.200
<v Speaker 1>the way things are supposed to be. And so I

0:04:20.279 --> 0:04:23.040
<v Speaker 1>just want to prepare you for those of you who

0:04:23.040 --> 0:04:24.960
<v Speaker 1>are going to be watching some of the mainstream coverage

0:04:25.040 --> 0:04:27.360
<v Speaker 1>or just it'll come up on your computer screens or

0:04:27.400 --> 0:04:29.920
<v Speaker 1>on your smartphones as you're scanning through the news. Hopefully

0:04:29.960 --> 0:04:32.360
<v Speaker 1>you just listen to this show and drown out much

0:04:32.360 --> 0:04:35.960
<v Speaker 1>of that worthless noise, but if you do see it,

0:04:36.000 --> 0:04:39.720
<v Speaker 1>I want you to be prepared for dishonesty on a

0:04:39.839 --> 0:04:43.839
<v Speaker 1>level that will be truly mind blowing for activism and

0:04:43.960 --> 0:04:47.760
<v Speaker 1>partisanship from people who are telling you, as they are

0:04:47.800 --> 0:04:51.520
<v Speaker 1>trying to persuade you to go against a Republican president,

0:04:52.200 --> 0:04:55.120
<v Speaker 1>that they are not doing this because if any animus

0:04:55.160 --> 0:04:58.440
<v Speaker 1>against the president or against the Republican Party or Conservatism,

0:04:58.600 --> 0:05:01.480
<v Speaker 1>they're doing this out of love of country, because Trump

0:05:01.560 --> 0:05:05.720
<v Speaker 1>has violated the Constitution. And then you could do what

0:05:05.800 --> 0:05:08.279
<v Speaker 1>I do and say what part of the Constitution. Exactly

0:05:08.279 --> 0:05:10.480
<v Speaker 1>has he violated? Can you just point to what he

0:05:10.520 --> 0:05:13.560
<v Speaker 1>has violated the Constitution? If they're going to use the

0:05:13.600 --> 0:05:19.799
<v Speaker 1>most broad designations possible. Oh, he has failed to faithfully

0:05:19.839 --> 0:05:26.920
<v Speaker 1>conduct his office responsibilities. Like how with a conversation that

0:05:27.680 --> 0:05:29.919
<v Speaker 1>I have not heard a single credible lawyer say was

0:05:30.000 --> 0:05:34.560
<v Speaker 1>a criminal act? Not one? How exactly are as the

0:05:34.600 --> 0:05:36.800
<v Speaker 1>president of the United States violating the Constitution. They won't

0:05:36.839 --> 0:05:38.680
<v Speaker 1>have a good answer. They will just they will yell

0:05:38.720 --> 0:05:41.440
<v Speaker 1>at you, though, they will make it clear that you're

0:05:41.440 --> 0:05:43.960
<v Speaker 1>a bad person if you don't agree with them, like

0:05:44.000 --> 0:05:46.280
<v Speaker 1>those lunatics who are screaming in my face last week

0:05:46.360 --> 0:05:48.120
<v Speaker 1>as I was on the way to a social event.

0:05:49.080 --> 0:05:53.000
<v Speaker 1>They will yell, they will scream, they will shriek. His

0:05:53.120 --> 0:05:57.040
<v Speaker 1>Democrats are very, very angry. In fact, there's some polling

0:05:57.080 --> 0:05:59.400
<v Speaker 1>that I will get too later in the show proves

0:05:59.400 --> 0:06:01.359
<v Speaker 1>the Democrats really have lost their minds. I mean, this

0:06:01.440 --> 0:06:04.440
<v Speaker 1>is now far too commonplace. People that identify with that

0:06:04.560 --> 0:06:08.080
<v Speaker 1>ideology and with the culture the Democratic Party don't have

0:06:08.160 --> 0:06:12.080
<v Speaker 1>the tap the brakes mode anymore. They can't do it,

0:06:12.279 --> 0:06:15.600
<v Speaker 1>can't pull it off that they can't chill out. They

0:06:15.640 --> 0:06:19.000
<v Speaker 1>are too frenzied around all of this stuff, perhaps because

0:06:19.000 --> 0:06:22.240
<v Speaker 1>they have Democrat candidates for the presidency telling them that

0:06:22.279 --> 0:06:24.320
<v Speaker 1>the world is going to end in ten years unless

0:06:24.400 --> 0:06:29.200
<v Speaker 1>we listen to Alexandria Occasio Cortez and institute the Green

0:06:29.279 --> 0:06:32.560
<v Speaker 1>New Deal. Only dishonest or stupid people can believe that.

0:06:32.960 --> 0:06:35.160
<v Speaker 1>But there are a lot of dishonest people and unfortunately

0:06:35.160 --> 0:06:40.440
<v Speaker 1>even more stupid people. But one thing you will not

0:06:40.520 --> 0:06:43.440
<v Speaker 1>hear a lot of this week, as we enter the

0:06:43.600 --> 0:06:46.679
<v Speaker 1>open phase, never there's still stuff going on behind closed doors.

0:06:46.720 --> 0:06:53.560
<v Speaker 1>There's still lots of conspiring and machinations, all sorts of underhanded,

0:06:53.800 --> 0:06:56.279
<v Speaker 1>politically motivated stuff the Democrats are going to try to

0:06:56.360 --> 0:06:59.000
<v Speaker 1>do to conjure up. I mean, this is really an

0:06:59.040 --> 0:07:01.359
<v Speaker 1>act of political alchemy what they're doing here with this

0:07:01.440 --> 0:07:04.440
<v Speaker 1>phone call with Ukraine. I will find a way. We'll

0:07:04.480 --> 0:07:07.360
<v Speaker 1>come up with some way to convince people that something

0:07:07.360 --> 0:07:11.440
<v Speaker 1>that they know instinctively and right away is not terrible.

0:07:11.640 --> 0:07:13.920
<v Speaker 1>We'll make them believe that it's terrible. We just have

0:07:13.960 --> 0:07:17.400
<v Speaker 1>to find the right way to present this, find the

0:07:17.480 --> 0:07:22.240
<v Speaker 1>right words. One thing you will not hear is a

0:07:22.320 --> 0:07:28.520
<v Speaker 1>fulsome discussion of the whistle blower reported by numerous outlets

0:07:28.640 --> 0:07:34.240
<v Speaker 1>as Eric Scharamela, and I'm seeing now some people are

0:07:34.280 --> 0:07:37.720
<v Speaker 1>still running around saying that to use his name out

0:07:37.760 --> 0:07:41.440
<v Speaker 1>loud is a crime and a violation of the whistle

0:07:41.480 --> 0:07:46.720
<v Speaker 1>blower statute. My friends, this is now the desperate straits

0:07:46.720 --> 0:07:50.760
<v Speaker 1>the left finds itself in when they will openly advocate

0:07:50.800 --> 0:07:54.200
<v Speaker 1>for the criminalization of common knowledge. That's where we are.

0:07:55.360 --> 0:07:58.040
<v Speaker 1>Things that are known publicly to anyone with access to

0:07:58.040 --> 0:08:00.680
<v Speaker 1>the Internet who cares to know them can now be

0:08:00.760 --> 0:08:05.880
<v Speaker 1>considered criminal on the left, including journalists who are going

0:08:05.920 --> 0:08:08.920
<v Speaker 1>along with this and acting like, yeah, sure, maybe there

0:08:09.000 --> 0:08:12.720
<v Speaker 1>is some crime here. The same journalists who will out

0:08:12.760 --> 0:08:17.120
<v Speaker 1>intelligence programs and individuals recklessly. The same journalists who think

0:08:17.120 --> 0:08:21.120
<v Speaker 1>that making America look bad in a time of war

0:08:21.280 --> 0:08:24.200
<v Speaker 1>is always a patriotic duty, doesn't matter if it results

0:08:24.200 --> 0:08:27.200
<v Speaker 1>in greater attacks against US soldiers. You know, they make

0:08:27.240 --> 0:08:30.360
<v Speaker 1>those kinds of decisions all the time. No problem, But

0:08:30.400 --> 0:08:33.560
<v Speaker 1>the whistle blower's identity is sacrosanct, at least for now.

0:08:35.280 --> 0:08:38.160
<v Speaker 1>Why can't we just get confirmation of this? Journals, why

0:08:38.160 --> 0:08:40.680
<v Speaker 1>don't you care to know? How can anyone pretend that

0:08:40.679 --> 0:08:45.240
<v Speaker 1>this is not important? Here is a piece by James

0:08:45.240 --> 0:08:48.760
<v Speaker 1>Freeman over the Wall Street Journal. In the fifty days

0:08:48.760 --> 0:08:52.440
<v Speaker 1>since news consumers were told that a federal whistleblower was

0:08:52.559 --> 0:08:56.520
<v Speaker 1>expressing his disapproval of a presidential phone call, CBS News

0:08:56.559 --> 0:08:58.800
<v Speaker 1>has aired or published more than a hundred stories on

0:08:58.880 --> 0:09:02.640
<v Speaker 1>President Donald Trump and Ukraine. Counting stories from local affiliates,

0:09:02.640 --> 0:09:06.240
<v Speaker 1>the number rises above two hundred, but CBS hasn't come

0:09:06.320 --> 0:09:08.400
<v Speaker 1>close to the wall to wall coverage offered by rival

0:09:08.440 --> 0:09:12.160
<v Speaker 1>ABC News. A search of ABC stories about mister Trump

0:09:12.160 --> 0:09:17.240
<v Speaker 1>in Ukraine yields six hundred and eighty seven results for

0:09:17.280 --> 0:09:22.000
<v Speaker 1>the last fifty days. More than three hundred of the

0:09:22.040 --> 0:09:26.360
<v Speaker 1>ABC stories specifically include the term whistleblower, and roughly all

0:09:26.400 --> 0:09:30.720
<v Speaker 1>the stories are derived from the original allegations formulated by

0:09:30.720 --> 0:09:33.960
<v Speaker 1>the unnamed government employee in consultation with the office of

0:09:33.960 --> 0:09:38.400
<v Speaker 1>Representative Adam Schiff. Mister Schiff publicly denied that such consultation

0:09:38.440 --> 0:09:41.839
<v Speaker 1>had occurred, but later acknowledged the fact as his falsehood

0:09:41.880 --> 0:09:46.520
<v Speaker 1>was exposed. Usually, news organizations like ABC and CBS at

0:09:46.600 --> 0:09:50.040
<v Speaker 1>least pretend to spend their days trying to report previously

0:09:50.520 --> 0:09:54.960
<v Speaker 1>non public information, but they recently decided not to report

0:09:55.000 --> 0:09:59.640
<v Speaker 1>the name of the federal whistleblower. Ironically the entire impeachment

0:09:59.679 --> 0:10:03.280
<v Speaker 1>case jes on an assumed political motivation by mister Trump

0:10:03.320 --> 0:10:06.840
<v Speaker 1>for comments on a phone call that we're not illegal yet.

0:10:06.840 --> 0:10:09.760
<v Speaker 1>By maintaining a blackout on the identity of the whistleblower,

0:10:10.200 --> 0:10:12.760
<v Speaker 1>news outlets are impeding the public's ability to learn the

0:10:12.760 --> 0:10:20.480
<v Speaker 1>possible political motivations of his accuser. That James Freeman nails

0:10:20.480 --> 0:10:23.200
<v Speaker 1>it here in the Wall Seet Journal That is exactly correct.

0:10:24.480 --> 0:10:26.520
<v Speaker 1>And they have to at least get to the point

0:10:26.520 --> 0:10:30.200
<v Speaker 1>where these hearings are up and running and going. They

0:10:30.280 --> 0:10:33.120
<v Speaker 1>have to at least get to the point where we

0:10:33.160 --> 0:10:38.319
<v Speaker 1>are seeing people on TV from the Democratic Party able

0:10:38.360 --> 0:10:40.280
<v Speaker 1>to give their speeches about how Trump is horrible, and

0:10:40.280 --> 0:10:42.360
<v Speaker 1>Trump is this, and Trump is that. All of those

0:10:42.400 --> 0:10:45.840
<v Speaker 1>things have to occur, right, this is this is what's

0:10:45.880 --> 0:10:49.920
<v Speaker 1>really going on here. And if at that point we

0:10:49.960 --> 0:10:51.400
<v Speaker 1>are all able to talk about the name of this

0:10:51.440 --> 0:10:56.160
<v Speaker 1>whistle blower, well, at least at least, then they will

0:10:56.280 --> 0:10:59.720
<v Speaker 1>have launched the ship, so to speak, Come what may.

0:11:00.360 --> 0:11:04.920
<v Speaker 1>But the suppression of the whistleblower's identity is appalling, and

0:11:05.000 --> 0:11:09.640
<v Speaker 1>it just shows us that journalism in America today is broken.

0:11:10.840 --> 0:11:13.200
<v Speaker 1>Although I would actually argue, we've just found out the

0:11:13.200 --> 0:11:15.439
<v Speaker 1>truth about it. It It hasn't ever been anything other than

0:11:15.480 --> 0:11:18.120
<v Speaker 1>what it is. Now, it's just more clear what it

0:11:18.320 --> 0:11:21.600
<v Speaker 1>is because of Trump. It's more clear what we're dealing with,

0:11:21.679 --> 0:11:26.880
<v Speaker 1>because the President of the United States has turned journalists

0:11:26.880 --> 0:11:30.920
<v Speaker 1>into lunatics and some kind of a frothy rage. They

0:11:30.920 --> 0:11:34.319
<v Speaker 1>have lost their minds. They hate this guy, and they

0:11:34.360 --> 0:11:38.000
<v Speaker 1>will defame and profane their professions in order to take

0:11:38.080 --> 0:11:42.560
<v Speaker 1>him down. Doesn't matter what they have to do. But

0:11:42.679 --> 0:11:45.720
<v Speaker 1>how can journalists pretend to be honest brokers of the truth,

0:11:45.800 --> 0:11:48.000
<v Speaker 1>or how can they pretend that they are investigating and

0:11:48.040 --> 0:11:50.800
<v Speaker 1>trying to get us the information we need when they

0:11:50.840 --> 0:11:56.240
<v Speaker 1>are actively engaged in a campaign of information suppression by

0:11:56.360 --> 0:12:01.520
<v Speaker 1>not referring to the alleged whistleblower, all of these news

0:12:01.520 --> 0:12:05.319
<v Speaker 1>outlets we're happy to print allegations against Justice Kavanaugh, for example,

0:12:06.120 --> 0:12:10.920
<v Speaker 1>without any verification, without any journalistic standards beyond some person

0:12:10.960 --> 0:12:14.920
<v Speaker 1>came out and said something, that's it. They ran with

0:12:14.960 --> 0:12:20.120
<v Speaker 1>those Oh, we're going to pretend now that whistleblower protection

0:12:20.240 --> 0:12:23.640
<v Speaker 1>law is going to stop journalists from the same journalist

0:12:23.679 --> 0:12:26.480
<v Speaker 1>who would out any classified or covert action program the

0:12:26.559 --> 0:12:28.640
<v Speaker 1>US government's running anywhere in the world if they felt

0:12:29.120 --> 0:12:32.320
<v Speaker 1>the need to do it, which just as their whim

0:12:32.440 --> 0:12:34.680
<v Speaker 1>they decide, Yeah, the public has a right to know.

0:12:34.880 --> 0:12:36.400
<v Speaker 1>How often have you heard that the public has a

0:12:36.520 --> 0:12:40.360
<v Speaker 1>right to know? And it's not just the mainstream outlets either,

0:12:41.679 --> 0:12:45.360
<v Speaker 1>it's not just the big journalistic edifices that still I

0:12:45.480 --> 0:12:48.120
<v Speaker 1>don't know why people we can't get past this era

0:12:48.840 --> 0:12:55.240
<v Speaker 1>where people believe that these journals are, these big institutions

0:12:55.280 --> 0:12:58.880
<v Speaker 1>are somehow to be trusted, even when they keep betraying

0:12:58.920 --> 0:13:02.480
<v Speaker 1>that trust. How many times can you get burned by

0:13:02.480 --> 0:13:04.600
<v Speaker 1>the partisanship of the Washington Post in the New York Times?

0:13:04.640 --> 0:13:07.920
<v Speaker 1>How much fake news? How many false stories before one

0:13:07.960 --> 0:13:10.120
<v Speaker 1>cancels a subscription and says, I'm no longer going to

0:13:10.200 --> 0:13:12.319
<v Speaker 1>go to these people for my narrative of what is

0:13:12.360 --> 0:13:14.960
<v Speaker 1>happening in America and around the world. I don't have

0:13:15.000 --> 0:13:17.400
<v Speaker 1>an answer to that, but I do find it trembling.

0:13:18.559 --> 0:13:21.960
<v Speaker 1>This is where we are still to this day. But

0:13:22.120 --> 0:13:26.600
<v Speaker 1>YouTube YouTube now apparently also feels that there should not

0:13:26.679 --> 0:13:31.559
<v Speaker 1>be a mention of the whistleblower's name. That's considered a

0:13:31.679 --> 0:13:35.720
<v Speaker 1>violation of community standards. According to a one journalist named

0:13:35.960 --> 0:13:40.480
<v Speaker 1>Tim Poole, a violation of community standards that have to

0:13:40.520 --> 0:13:45.560
<v Speaker 1>do with conspiring for criminal activity and possible harm against

0:13:45.640 --> 0:13:50.079
<v Speaker 1>a person. That's right, my friends, the most powerful media

0:13:50.120 --> 0:13:53.800
<v Speaker 1>companies in the country are refusing to report on the

0:13:53.920 --> 0:13:58.920
<v Speaker 1>name of the single individual who is most newsworthy in

0:13:59.160 --> 0:14:03.880
<v Speaker 1>America right now. They refuse to report on his name.

0:14:03.920 --> 0:14:06.000
<v Speaker 1>They refuse to try to dig up more facts and

0:14:06.000 --> 0:14:11.480
<v Speaker 1>background information. Why they pretend it's because of concern of harm?

0:14:11.480 --> 0:14:14.400
<v Speaker 1>Would that stop them in other instances if this were

0:14:14.400 --> 0:14:17.760
<v Speaker 1>a whistleblower against President Obama or a Democrat president. Does

0:14:17.760 --> 0:14:21.120
<v Speaker 1>any even think that all of this bombast about the

0:14:21.160 --> 0:14:25.720
<v Speaker 1>whistleblower statue would be emanating from the newsrooms across the country.

0:14:26.040 --> 0:14:31.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't think so. It's because the so called whistleblower,

0:14:31.000 --> 0:14:34.040
<v Speaker 1>because he's not even really a whistleblower, folks, he's so

0:14:34.120 --> 0:14:41.600
<v Speaker 1>called whistleblower, is necessary to the anti Trump movement right now.

0:14:42.640 --> 0:14:45.560
<v Speaker 1>And there is nothing, nothing, that is more important to

0:14:45.560 --> 0:14:47.600
<v Speaker 1>the left than that. That is the single The goal

0:14:47.680 --> 0:14:51.240
<v Speaker 1>is to defeat Trump. Everything else falls into a distant,

0:14:51.280 --> 0:14:54.960
<v Speaker 1>distant second place. Doesn't matter what this does the journalistic

0:14:55.000 --> 0:14:58.200
<v Speaker 1>standards and ethics. You'll also notice the number of news

0:14:58.240 --> 0:15:02.560
<v Speaker 1>reports on Project Veritas and what happened at ABC News.

0:15:03.360 --> 0:15:06.440
<v Speaker 1>Just so we're keeping score here, so we're clear. NBC

0:15:06.480 --> 0:15:12.440
<v Speaker 1>News clearly clearly shut down at the top level from

0:15:12.440 --> 0:15:17.520
<v Speaker 1>the top people there, shut down coverage of Harvey Weinstein's

0:15:17.560 --> 0:15:21.840
<v Speaker 1>sexual serial sexual predation because he was a super powerful

0:15:22.200 --> 0:15:25.720
<v Speaker 1>liberal Democrat, friends with the Clinton's, friends with the Obamas,

0:15:25.760 --> 0:15:28.600
<v Speaker 1>and they didn't want to touch it. So there's your

0:15:28.600 --> 0:15:33.040
<v Speaker 1>truth to power at NBC and ABC didn't want to

0:15:33.080 --> 0:15:38.720
<v Speaker 1>report on serial pedophile and near billionaire Jeffrey Epstein, who

0:15:38.760 --> 0:15:41.040
<v Speaker 1>has connections to some of the most powerful people in

0:15:41.080 --> 0:15:45.280
<v Speaker 1>the world because his close connections were to people like

0:15:45.640 --> 0:15:50.960
<v Speaker 1>the British Royal families, Prince Andrew, and Bill Clinton himself

0:15:51.280 --> 0:15:54.160
<v Speaker 1>when Hillary also was still thinking about running for president.

0:15:54.280 --> 0:16:00.560
<v Speaker 1>By the way, we still trust them, though, Do you

0:16:00.600 --> 0:16:04.640
<v Speaker 1>trust them? I certainly hope not. This man from the

0:16:04.800 --> 0:16:07.600
<v Speaker 1>first day he went into office, he wanted to have

0:16:07.760 --> 0:16:13.680
<v Speaker 1>an alternative foreign policy where Jared Kushner wanted a special

0:16:14.000 --> 0:16:17.840
<v Speaker 1>back channel communication to Russia that no one would know about.

0:16:18.600 --> 0:16:25.720
<v Speaker 1>Now he's got Giuliani running a back channel improper foreign

0:16:25.760 --> 0:16:29.080
<v Speaker 1>policy to get dirt on his political officials. You throw

0:16:29.120 --> 0:16:32.800
<v Speaker 1>in an obstruction of Congress. You throw an obstruction of

0:16:33.520 --> 0:16:39.560
<v Speaker 1>justice from Muller. This is just an a lawless administration

0:16:39.640 --> 0:16:44.000
<v Speaker 1>that knows no restraint, and we're supposed to be publicly

0:16:44.280 --> 0:16:47.480
<v Speaker 1>say oh, we're gonna listen. I'm gonna listen. And there

0:16:47.480 --> 0:16:50.640
<v Speaker 1>could be some unbelievable thing that the president brings up,

0:16:50.960 --> 0:16:55.200
<v Speaker 1>but no, there is clearly obstruction of Congress, obstruction of justice,

0:16:55.200 --> 0:16:59.880
<v Speaker 1>and abuse of power. That'll be about is that incoherent

0:17:00.120 --> 0:17:05.920
<v Speaker 1>blather from Representative Steve Cohen there Democrat of course, given

0:17:05.960 --> 0:17:08.040
<v Speaker 1>what he's saying about President Trump. That goes out saying

0:17:10.080 --> 0:17:13.679
<v Speaker 1>Representative Steve Cohen, he's saying this stuff about the president

0:17:13.720 --> 0:17:16.600
<v Speaker 1>and you're thinking, wait, what he's jumping around? You know

0:17:16.680 --> 0:17:19.160
<v Speaker 1>this thing he did and obstructing this and obstructing data.

0:17:19.160 --> 0:17:22.639
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure the President engaged an unprecedented cooperation with the

0:17:22.720 --> 0:17:27.040
<v Speaker 1>Muller probe, which was completely based on faulty premisses and

0:17:27.280 --> 0:17:30.080
<v Speaker 1>lies and collusion between the meeting, the Democratic Party, and

0:17:30.200 --> 0:17:33.280
<v Speaker 1>foreign sources. By the way, not just Christopher Steele, the

0:17:33.280 --> 0:17:37.119
<v Speaker 1>people who relied on for the information in that insane dossier,

0:17:37.560 --> 0:17:38.879
<v Speaker 1>which I went back and read some more of over

0:17:38.920 --> 0:17:40.480
<v Speaker 1>the week. In the fact that anyone took the dossier

0:17:40.520 --> 0:17:43.119
<v Speaker 1>seriously is a testament to the stupidity of some of

0:17:43.119 --> 0:17:45.639
<v Speaker 1>the most powerful people in the intelligence apparatus and the

0:17:45.680 --> 0:17:48.840
<v Speaker 1>federal bureaucracy. The dumbest rise to the top of the

0:17:48.920 --> 0:17:52.400
<v Speaker 1>federal bureaucracy many times. Make no mistake about it. I've

0:17:52.400 --> 0:17:54.840
<v Speaker 1>seen it myself. You have predicted though, that the president's

0:17:54.880 --> 0:17:57.320
<v Speaker 1>not gonna last much longer, that he's gonna resign or yeah.

0:17:57.320 --> 0:18:00.919
<v Speaker 1>I think there's an overwhelming cascade of of evidence, and

0:18:00.960 --> 0:18:03.720
<v Speaker 1>so this week will be the starting of that waterfall.

0:18:04.160 --> 0:18:06.439
<v Speaker 1>It's one thing when things are behind closed doors and

0:18:06.480 --> 0:18:09.200
<v Speaker 1>you're doing an investigation. It's another thing when it's open

0:18:09.320 --> 0:18:12.399
<v Speaker 1>theater and you can actually see the rank lawlessness of

0:18:12.440 --> 0:18:15.439
<v Speaker 1>what's gone on and the lack of constitutionality in the

0:18:15.480 --> 0:18:18.480
<v Speaker 1>process with the president. And I think I think it's

0:18:18.520 --> 0:18:21.040
<v Speaker 1>not just a Ukrainian call. There will be other elements

0:18:21.080 --> 0:18:24.000
<v Speaker 1>of this story that unfold where people will say, Okay,

0:18:24.000 --> 0:18:26.760
<v Speaker 1>wait a minute. There's a combination of incompetence, there's a

0:18:26.800 --> 0:18:30.480
<v Speaker 1>combination of a destruction of the executive branch of the

0:18:30.520 --> 0:18:35.680
<v Speaker 1>United States in addition to the lawlessness and traitorous like behavior.

0:18:35.760 --> 0:18:38.399
<v Speaker 1>So traitors like behavior. Oh, there's no question. I mean,

0:18:38.560 --> 0:18:43.600
<v Speaker 1>you're if you're a strong word anything, Well, what word

0:18:43.600 --> 0:18:45.960
<v Speaker 1>would you use. You're you're on the phone with the

0:18:46.119 --> 0:18:50.159
<v Speaker 1>president of the Ukraine and you're strong arming him to

0:18:50.280 --> 0:18:53.800
<v Speaker 1>have him go after your political opponent. Okay, that is

0:18:53.840 --> 0:18:56.479
<v Speaker 1>you're become a traitor to the Constitution and a traitor

0:18:56.560 --> 0:19:00.240
<v Speaker 1>to the laws of the United States. Trader, just the

0:19:00.240 --> 0:19:08.000
<v Speaker 1>word a lot mooch trader. Isn't that interesting? This from

0:19:08.000 --> 0:19:13.919
<v Speaker 1>a man who even at the time of Trump's greatest victory,

0:19:13.920 --> 0:19:15.480
<v Speaker 1>which is the election, I mean that was such a

0:19:15.720 --> 0:19:18.000
<v Speaker 1>moment of shock for many people across the country. I

0:19:18.040 --> 0:19:20.000
<v Speaker 1>know not that many of you listening to this, but

0:19:20.480 --> 0:19:22.200
<v Speaker 1>at a time when a lot of people were trying

0:19:22.240 --> 0:19:29.080
<v Speaker 1>to curry favorite the president, the degree of sycophancy from

0:19:29.200 --> 0:19:32.200
<v Speaker 1>Scaramucci was a sight to behold. And I saw it myself.

0:19:33.000 --> 0:19:34.439
<v Speaker 1>This was a guy who'd go on TV, you know,

0:19:34.520 --> 0:19:38.920
<v Speaker 1>the president's super genius. He's a Christian billionaire, super genius.

0:19:38.960 --> 0:19:41.640
<v Speaker 1>You know, like Kanye says, the president everything he does,

0:19:41.680 --> 0:19:44.680
<v Speaker 1>he's playing five D chess, twelve D chess. The President

0:19:44.760 --> 0:19:46.800
<v Speaker 1>understands the will the American people. I mean, he would

0:19:46.840 --> 0:19:48.719
<v Speaker 1>go I remember this guy because I sat on some

0:19:48.760 --> 0:19:52.040
<v Speaker 1>panels with him. I did some shows with this this

0:19:52.119 --> 0:19:53.520
<v Speaker 1>fellow of the mooch. As at first, all where did

0:19:53.520 --> 0:19:55.439
<v Speaker 1>this guy come from? Well, I am I listening about anything?

0:19:55.520 --> 0:19:58.440
<v Speaker 1>What does he know about any of this stuff? I don't.

0:19:58.520 --> 0:20:01.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean, look, the president's biggest the president's biggest weakness

0:20:01.800 --> 0:20:04.800
<v Speaker 1>other than perhaps a bit of messaging and discipline sometimes,

0:20:05.240 --> 0:20:07.120
<v Speaker 1>but is the people that he has put in positions

0:20:07.119 --> 0:20:09.320
<v Speaker 1>of a Look at all these people are turning on him.

0:20:09.440 --> 0:20:12.720
<v Speaker 1>Tillerson and Kelly and those are some of the better ones.

0:20:12.960 --> 0:20:15.880
<v Speaker 1>You've got Mooch and I'm a Rosa and you've got

0:20:15.960 --> 0:20:19.320
<v Speaker 1>Cohed and I mean these are He's made a lot

0:20:19.359 --> 0:20:21.199
<v Speaker 1>of bad a lot of bad choices in that regard.

0:20:22.600 --> 0:20:24.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what else to say other than he

0:20:24.640 --> 0:20:28.080
<v Speaker 1>should have picked different people for these roles. But the

0:20:28.119 --> 0:20:30.240
<v Speaker 1>Mooch saying that he's a traitor, I mean, that's You're

0:20:30.280 --> 0:20:33.040
<v Speaker 1>going to hear a lot of that now, just use

0:20:33.160 --> 0:20:36.920
<v Speaker 1>the words bash him, go after this president with the

0:20:36.960 --> 0:20:40.720
<v Speaker 1>most terrible allegations possible. That's going to be the choice.

0:20:40.760 --> 0:20:43.879
<v Speaker 1>That's going to be the decision that they make. And

0:20:43.920 --> 0:20:48.920
<v Speaker 1>then I also bring you Senator Chuck Schumer, though, who

0:20:48.960 --> 0:20:52.639
<v Speaker 1>has to deal with the reality of what's going to

0:20:52.640 --> 0:20:54.399
<v Speaker 1>happen in the Senate. You see, this is going to

0:20:54.480 --> 0:20:57.680
<v Speaker 1>be the great moment for the Democrats right now, when

0:20:57.720 --> 0:20:59.199
<v Speaker 1>they can say whatever they want to say on the

0:20:59.200 --> 0:21:02.199
<v Speaker 1>floor of the House, they can push whatever stories they

0:21:02.240 --> 0:21:07.040
<v Speaker 1>want to push, and they don't have to worry about

0:21:07.040 --> 0:21:10.679
<v Speaker 1>the votes because they have the votes. The truth, however,

0:21:11.960 --> 0:21:14.040
<v Speaker 1>is that there's something different going on in the Senate,

0:21:14.080 --> 0:21:17.920
<v Speaker 1>where we fortunately have a Republican majority and would need

0:21:18.040 --> 0:21:20.119
<v Speaker 1>two thirds. The founders knew what they were doing with this,

0:21:20.119 --> 0:21:23.760
<v Speaker 1>would need two thirds in the Senate to vote for

0:21:24.119 --> 0:21:28.520
<v Speaker 1>removal from office. And so also because they don't have

0:21:28.520 --> 0:21:33.320
<v Speaker 1>a majority, the Senate procedures will be set not by

0:21:33.320 --> 0:21:36.399
<v Speaker 1>the Democrats but by the Republicans. So all the stuff

0:21:36.400 --> 0:21:38.719
<v Speaker 1>you're seeing right now with shape from the behind closed

0:21:38.760 --> 0:21:41.719
<v Speaker 1>doors and the lack of honesty and truth and fairness

0:21:41.800 --> 0:21:45.200
<v Speaker 1>going on back there, this is so classic. They're a

0:21:45.280 --> 0:21:47.600
<v Speaker 1>railroading Trump where they have the majority, and then in

0:21:47.640 --> 0:21:49.240
<v Speaker 1>the Senate, where they know they're going to have to

0:21:49.280 --> 0:21:52.320
<v Speaker 1>deal with a whole different situation, they're going to plead

0:21:52.400 --> 0:21:54.520
<v Speaker 1>for how oh, come on? This is the Senate. We

0:21:54.560 --> 0:21:57.360
<v Speaker 1>need to be fair here, so give us some give

0:21:57.400 --> 0:22:02.119
<v Speaker 1>the Democrats some concessions. Don't don't just steamroll the Democrat

0:22:02.840 --> 0:22:05.240
<v Speaker 1>argument here the Democrat point of view, I mean the arguments.

0:22:05.240 --> 0:22:07.240
<v Speaker 1>Just get rid of Trump, there's nothing beyond that. But

0:22:07.320 --> 0:22:10.160
<v Speaker 1>don't steamroll us just because you have the majority. That's

0:22:10.160 --> 0:22:13.600
<v Speaker 1>only something that happens in the House. Here's Senator Schumer,

0:22:13.640 --> 0:22:17.440
<v Speaker 1>for example, trying to appear as though he's the reasonable

0:22:17.440 --> 0:22:21.200
<v Speaker 1>man in the situation. Play for McConnell is the majority leader,

0:22:21.280 --> 0:22:25.440
<v Speaker 1>so it's his prerogative to set up rules. In the past,

0:22:25.520 --> 0:22:29.000
<v Speaker 1>there's always been consultation with the minority leader, and I

0:22:29.040 --> 0:22:31.200
<v Speaker 1>hope he will consult with us and we can get

0:22:31.240 --> 0:22:34.800
<v Speaker 1>some fair bipartisan rules, like was done in the last

0:22:34.840 --> 0:22:38.959
<v Speaker 1>impeachment situation with Bill Clinton. They initially came to an

0:22:39.400 --> 0:22:42.720
<v Speaker 1>initial agreement that passed a hundred to nothing. They had

0:22:42.760 --> 0:22:45.920
<v Speaker 1>some disputes later and it passed in a more divided way.

0:22:46.400 --> 0:22:49.760
<v Speaker 1>But I am ready to sit down with Leader McConnell

0:22:49.800 --> 0:22:51.959
<v Speaker 1>and try to come up with fair rules. There's no

0:22:52.000 --> 0:22:55.359
<v Speaker 1>reason why we shouldn't be able to do that. So

0:22:55.960 --> 0:22:58.600
<v Speaker 1>the Democrats are the minority there, but they want fair rules,

0:22:58.880 --> 0:23:01.400
<v Speaker 1>fair rules. Does anyone think that their fair rules going

0:23:01.400 --> 0:23:03.080
<v Speaker 1>on in the House? If you read as I did

0:23:03.080 --> 0:23:06.359
<v Speaker 1>over the weekend, some of the transcripts from these witnesses,

0:23:07.359 --> 0:23:10.600
<v Speaker 1>the transcripts from these witnesses that have testified behind closed

0:23:10.600 --> 0:23:16.760
<v Speaker 1>doors to the Democrat Intelligence Committee run by Schiff, every

0:23:16.800 --> 0:23:19.080
<v Speaker 1>time they ask a question about hey, was there you know,

0:23:19.320 --> 0:23:21.720
<v Speaker 1>did you collude or did you have any conversations or

0:23:21.760 --> 0:23:27.160
<v Speaker 1>did you have any any back and forth with this

0:23:27.280 --> 0:23:30.520
<v Speaker 1>or that Democrat asking the witnesses, or anytime they start

0:23:30.560 --> 0:23:32.240
<v Speaker 1>to get closer to a question that all of a

0:23:32.280 --> 0:23:35.080
<v Speaker 1>sudden is blah blah blah blah blay. Can't talk, can't talk, No, no, no,

0:23:35.080 --> 0:23:37.800
<v Speaker 1>don't answer it, don't answer. The Democrats just shout it down.

0:23:38.560 --> 0:23:40.400
<v Speaker 1>They just shout it down. And there's no judge there,

0:23:40.400 --> 0:23:43.040
<v Speaker 1>you see. So it's like imagine a courtroom where there's

0:23:43.040 --> 0:23:46.800
<v Speaker 1>no judge, and anytime a witness that is presented by

0:23:46.800 --> 0:23:49.920
<v Speaker 1>the prosecution is about to get questioned by the defense,

0:23:50.119 --> 0:23:53.760
<v Speaker 1>the prosecutors gonna can't here, can't and start yelling and

0:23:53.840 --> 0:23:57.960
<v Speaker 1>screaming like a bunch of children. I'm not exaggerating. That's

0:23:57.960 --> 0:24:02.600
<v Speaker 1>what they do in the House Intelligence Committee. That is

0:24:02.640 --> 0:24:04.679
<v Speaker 1>what they are doing behind closed doors right now. They

0:24:04.720 --> 0:24:07.240
<v Speaker 1>are saying, oh, sorry, can't you know, can't talk, can't

0:24:07.240 --> 0:24:16.879
<v Speaker 1>answer that question. Fair process, fair process, my foot I

0:24:17.000 --> 0:24:19.360
<v Speaker 1>was angry. I don't know why my foot was when

0:24:19.359 --> 0:24:21.000
<v Speaker 1>I came out of my mouth. But all right, But

0:24:21.080 --> 0:24:23.399
<v Speaker 1>this is this reminds me very much of the quote

0:24:23.480 --> 0:24:26.800
<v Speaker 1>from Frank Herbert's Children of Doone. Some of you who

0:24:26.840 --> 0:24:28.440
<v Speaker 1>know I'm talking about. When I am weaker than you,

0:24:29.160 --> 0:24:32.199
<v Speaker 1>I ask for freedom because that is according to your principles.

0:24:33.280 --> 0:24:35.840
<v Speaker 1>When I am stronger than you, I take away your

0:24:35.880 --> 0:24:40.679
<v Speaker 1>freedom because that is according to my principles. Well, this

0:24:40.720 --> 0:24:42.720
<v Speaker 1>is what the Democrats are doing. I tweeted this out

0:24:42.800 --> 0:24:45.920
<v Speaker 1>last night. When Democrats don't have the votes, they ask

0:24:46.000 --> 0:24:49.360
<v Speaker 1>for fairness because that is according to conservative principles. When

0:24:49.400 --> 0:24:52.960
<v Speaker 1>Democrats do have the votes, they take away fairness because

0:24:53.000 --> 0:24:57.159
<v Speaker 1>that is according to Democrat principles. It's exactly what's happening

0:24:57.200 --> 0:24:59.440
<v Speaker 1>here in the House. It's there where the highway deal

0:24:59.480 --> 0:25:02.280
<v Speaker 1>with it. Elections have consequences. In the Senate. Now you're

0:25:02.320 --> 0:25:05.119
<v Speaker 1>having Schumer and in the vanguard here. If they oh,

0:25:05.200 --> 0:25:08.680
<v Speaker 1>whoa hold on, Let's let's establish fair rules. Let's all agree,

0:25:08.720 --> 0:25:11.720
<v Speaker 1>let's all be civilized about this. You know. Yeah, because

0:25:11.720 --> 0:25:14.320
<v Speaker 1>Democrats don't have the majority and they don't have the votes.

0:25:16.400 --> 0:25:19.760
<v Speaker 1>These people, these leftists, couldn't be any more transparent, but

0:25:21.040 --> 0:25:23.800
<v Speaker 1>unfortunately they don't really care. We have reached such polarized

0:25:23.840 --> 0:25:26.880
<v Speaker 1>times that there's very little that a Democrat politician can

0:25:26.880 --> 0:25:29.719
<v Speaker 1>do now that would turn any of his or her

0:25:29.760 --> 0:25:34.960
<v Speaker 1>supporters against him, as long as it was geared toward

0:25:35.040 --> 0:25:39.040
<v Speaker 1>the destruction of President Trump, As long as that's the

0:25:39.160 --> 0:25:43.560
<v Speaker 1>overall plan, I would say, you know, Nicky Haley has

0:25:43.600 --> 0:25:48.800
<v Speaker 1>a book coming out, and in her book there are

0:25:48.880 --> 0:25:52.160
<v Speaker 1>some things that is that are I think troubling dreamed.

0:25:52.280 --> 0:25:54.399
<v Speaker 1>And by the way, I don't know Nicky Haley. I've

0:25:54.400 --> 0:25:57.320
<v Speaker 1>actually never interviewed her. These days, there are few and

0:25:57.359 --> 0:25:59.760
<v Speaker 1>fewer of those officials that I've never had a chance

0:25:59.760 --> 0:26:03.359
<v Speaker 1>to talk. But I've never interviewed Nikki Haley. I've heard

0:26:03.400 --> 0:26:05.480
<v Speaker 1>that she's a straight shooter. I can't really speak to

0:26:05.520 --> 0:26:09.000
<v Speaker 1>it beyond that she has this book coming out. However,

0:26:09.080 --> 0:26:11.480
<v Speaker 1>I also all these public officials writing books, I find

0:26:11.480 --> 0:26:15.120
<v Speaker 1>it a little not just repetitive and boring, because these

0:26:15.119 --> 0:26:18.640
<v Speaker 1>books are almost always a waste of everyone's time they've

0:26:18.640 --> 0:26:22.040
<v Speaker 1>written for these officials. It strikes me as a waste

0:26:22.040 --> 0:26:23.720
<v Speaker 1>of time for most people. But there are a couple

0:26:23.720 --> 0:26:26.360
<v Speaker 1>of sometimes there'll be a couple of interesting things in it.

0:26:27.040 --> 0:26:31.520
<v Speaker 1>And here you have, first of all, Nicky Haley, during

0:26:31.520 --> 0:26:35.600
<v Speaker 1>an interview in advance of the book coming out, saying that, look,

0:26:35.960 --> 0:26:38.359
<v Speaker 1>there's nothing in the trans Well, let's hear from her

0:26:38.359 --> 0:26:42.600
<v Speaker 1>play clip twenty five. You're an impeach a president for

0:26:43.480 --> 0:26:47.200
<v Speaker 1>asking for a favor that didn't happen and giving money

0:26:47.480 --> 0:26:49.440
<v Speaker 1>and it wasn't with help. I don't know what you

0:26:49.480 --> 0:26:53.560
<v Speaker 1>would impeach him on. And look, Nora, impeachment is like

0:26:53.600 --> 0:26:58.360
<v Speaker 1>the death penalty for a public official. When you look

0:26:58.359 --> 0:27:02.800
<v Speaker 1>at the transcript, there's nothing in that transcript that warrants

0:27:02.840 --> 0:27:05.520
<v Speaker 1>the death penalty for the president. And I think that,

0:27:05.680 --> 0:27:07.760
<v Speaker 1>to be clear, it was not a complete transcript. There

0:27:07.760 --> 0:27:09.879
<v Speaker 1>are still things that are missing from it. And in

0:27:09.960 --> 0:27:11.600
<v Speaker 1>that he does say I would like you to do

0:27:11.680 --> 0:27:15.560
<v Speaker 1>us a favor, though the Ukrainians never did the investigation

0:27:16.560 --> 0:27:19.479
<v Speaker 1>and the president released the funds. I mean, when you

0:27:19.560 --> 0:27:23.400
<v Speaker 1>look at those there's just nothing impeachable there. And more

0:27:23.480 --> 0:27:26.639
<v Speaker 1>than that, I think the biggest thing that bothers me

0:27:26.880 --> 0:27:30.199
<v Speaker 1>is the American people should decide this. Why do we

0:27:30.280 --> 0:27:32.680
<v Speaker 1>have a bunch of people in Congress making this decision?

0:27:34.480 --> 0:27:37.119
<v Speaker 1>The transcript is incomplete. You'll hear this. This is another

0:27:37.119 --> 0:27:41.440
<v Speaker 1>one of these things that journalists will say, and they

0:27:41.480 --> 0:27:43.480
<v Speaker 1>think it's smart, They think that they're all I'm really

0:27:43.520 --> 0:27:47.480
<v Speaker 1>up on things. Perhaps they should read through the transcripts

0:27:47.520 --> 0:27:51.560
<v Speaker 1>of the testimony behind closed doors as I have, or

0:27:51.640 --> 0:27:55.480
<v Speaker 1>you have these various witnesses, former ambassadors, NSC officials, etc.

0:27:56.520 --> 0:27:58.760
<v Speaker 1>Brought forward by Adam Schiff For the sole purpose of

0:27:58.760 --> 0:28:04.600
<v Speaker 1>trying to trash President Trump. And when Vinman right who

0:28:05.240 --> 0:28:06.840
<v Speaker 1>The more we learn about him, the more clear it

0:28:06.840 --> 0:28:09.240
<v Speaker 1>seems that he had a at least a policy acts

0:28:09.240 --> 0:28:14.160
<v Speaker 1>to grind against the Trump administration. But but Vinman said,

0:28:14.240 --> 0:28:18.040
<v Speaker 1>when asked directly, well, maybe they didn't you know, the

0:28:18.119 --> 0:28:21.159
<v Speaker 1>company was named Barisma. They had that. That might have

0:28:21.160 --> 0:28:23.119
<v Speaker 1>been left out of the transcript, that one word. But

0:28:23.240 --> 0:28:25.040
<v Speaker 1>that's we all know what company was talking about. That

0:28:25.080 --> 0:28:29.280
<v Speaker 1>doesn't really matter is the rest of the transcript. Actor

0:28:29.359 --> 0:28:32.000
<v Speaker 1>he was asked this the guy who was supposed to

0:28:32.040 --> 0:28:35.520
<v Speaker 1>be bolstering this whistleblower's complaint because he also had concerns

0:28:35.560 --> 0:28:38.680
<v Speaker 1>about it. He was asked, and guess what he said, Yeah,

0:28:38.720 --> 0:28:46.120
<v Speaker 1>it was it was accurate. Oh okay, well look at that.

0:28:48.120 --> 0:28:51.160
<v Speaker 1>So what's this, Oh, there's there's another transcript out there.

0:28:51.200 --> 0:28:53.720
<v Speaker 1>There's something that's see They say this, this is a

0:28:53.800 --> 0:28:56.520
<v Speaker 1>dodge because when you look at it and you say

0:28:56.560 --> 0:28:59.400
<v Speaker 1>that the transcript does not support impeachment, they go, well,

0:28:59.440 --> 0:29:02.040
<v Speaker 1>but what about all this other stuff that also kind

0:29:02.040 --> 0:29:04.560
<v Speaker 1>of happened that we don't like and buzzword buzzword and

0:29:04.760 --> 0:29:07.240
<v Speaker 1>the and the in transcripts, not even a direct transcript.

0:29:09.200 --> 0:29:12.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean, my friends, this is this is actually a

0:29:12.520 --> 0:29:15.480
<v Speaker 1>conspiracy level stuff. Now they've asked the people that heard

0:29:15.480 --> 0:29:17.640
<v Speaker 1>the phone call, is this transcript representative? You know? Was

0:29:17.680 --> 0:29:20.560
<v Speaker 1>there was there anything did you remember being said that

0:29:20.680 --> 0:29:22.960
<v Speaker 1>was left off of the transcript that would alter the meaning?

0:29:23.000 --> 0:29:27.360
<v Speaker 1>And the answers No, answers, No, there's nothing that was

0:29:27.440 --> 0:29:29.080
<v Speaker 1>like left off that would have all you know? So

0:29:29.680 --> 0:29:31.600
<v Speaker 1>why do we keep hearing I keep bearing this from journalists?

0:29:31.600 --> 0:29:35.080
<v Speaker 1>Oh it's not an exact transcript. Oh okay, this would

0:29:35.080 --> 0:29:39.440
<v Speaker 1>be like saying, you know, yeah, the the defendant here

0:29:39.600 --> 0:29:43.720
<v Speaker 1>signed a sworn confession. But there are like at least

0:29:43.800 --> 0:29:48.280
<v Speaker 1>two or three misspellings in this confession, So therefore it

0:29:48.400 --> 0:29:51.200
<v Speaker 1>is an inaccurate document, isn't it because there are misspellings,

0:29:51.200 --> 0:29:53.520
<v Speaker 1>and misspellings are inaccurate. So now I can go around

0:29:53.560 --> 0:29:57.720
<v Speaker 1>reporting on the inaccurate document that this individual signed for

0:29:57.800 --> 0:30:02.560
<v Speaker 1>his confession, the inaccurate confession. That's how propaganda works, you see,

0:30:02.920 --> 0:30:05.840
<v Speaker 1>takeout contexts, take out nuance, take out understanding that we

0:30:05.920 --> 0:30:08.960
<v Speaker 1>all have of the world, the English language, what words mean,

0:30:09.920 --> 0:30:13.760
<v Speaker 1>and then just oh, of course the transcript is not verbatim.

0:30:13.760 --> 0:30:17.880
<v Speaker 1>Maybe that's thegether way, that the transcript is not verbatim. Okay,

0:30:18.080 --> 0:30:20.520
<v Speaker 1>they might have left out an the or you know

0:30:20.720 --> 0:30:24.120
<v Speaker 1>here or there. Does anyone really think there's there's not

0:30:24.200 --> 0:30:26.680
<v Speaker 1>some other allegation that is not can you know that?

0:30:26.640 --> 0:30:31.600
<v Speaker 1>The whole crux of the case is that the President said, hey,

0:30:31.720 --> 0:30:33.920
<v Speaker 1>can you you know, find out some answers about the

0:30:33.960 --> 0:30:37.280
<v Speaker 1>twenty sixteen CrowdStrike thing and also look into the Biden

0:30:37.360 --> 0:30:40.920
<v Speaker 1>situation with with Barisma, because you know, I heard bad

0:30:40.960 --> 0:30:44.280
<v Speaker 1>stuff was going on there. That's it. That was the

0:30:44.600 --> 0:30:46.959
<v Speaker 1>you know, unless they're going to allege that there's some

0:30:47.120 --> 0:30:49.080
<v Speaker 1>and they're already saying it was a quick broke quote.

0:30:49.120 --> 0:30:52.719
<v Speaker 1>So why Why would the specific verbiage make any difference

0:30:52.760 --> 0:30:54.640
<v Speaker 1>in the context if they've said that it's already there.

0:30:56.480 --> 0:30:59.280
<v Speaker 1>It's just garbage, friends, it's garbage, but it's it's gonna

0:30:59.320 --> 0:31:02.920
<v Speaker 1>get so gross this week. I'm here to prepare you

0:31:02.960 --> 0:31:04.520
<v Speaker 1>for this. What do you for those of you that

0:31:04.600 --> 0:31:06.760
<v Speaker 1>care to follow some of this political stuff that's going

0:31:06.760 --> 0:31:09.440
<v Speaker 1>on in DC. I mean I think that I mean,

0:31:09.480 --> 0:31:11.600
<v Speaker 1>there's a presidency at stakes, so it's hard to ignore

0:31:11.600 --> 0:31:13.680
<v Speaker 1>it entirely. But I think most of the American people

0:31:13.680 --> 0:31:15.160
<v Speaker 1>look at this and just say, I mean, you got

0:31:15.200 --> 0:31:16.680
<v Speaker 1>you gotta be kidding me. I mean, this is really

0:31:16.680 --> 0:31:18.000
<v Speaker 1>what we're gonna be spending our time doing. This is is

0:31:18.160 --> 0:31:22.160
<v Speaker 1>really the way that the media is gonna focus all

0:31:22.160 --> 0:31:23.600
<v Speaker 1>there the answers. Yes, that is how they're going to

0:31:23.640 --> 0:31:27.800
<v Speaker 1>focus all their energy. But it's going to get It's

0:31:27.800 --> 0:31:31.840
<v Speaker 1>going to get quite quite nasty, that much is for sure.

0:31:32.000 --> 0:31:34.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm the one to raise the issue from my phone

0:31:34.320 --> 0:31:36.520
<v Speaker 1>call with the God sol in the day before where

0:31:36.520 --> 0:31:41.480
<v Speaker 1>he described some some type of something that Ukraine handed

0:31:41.520 --> 0:31:44.360
<v Speaker 1>do before President Trump would release the funding. And when

0:31:44.400 --> 0:31:48.160
<v Speaker 1>I brought up that scenario, President Trump immediately and I've

0:31:48.240 --> 0:31:53.640
<v Speaker 1>described as adamantly and family denied it. And yet here

0:31:53.680 --> 0:31:58.320
<v Speaker 1>we are, we're going to be told that the facts

0:31:58.360 --> 0:32:02.000
<v Speaker 1>aren't the facts, that the president clearly violated the law.

0:32:02.040 --> 0:32:04.000
<v Speaker 1>They won't tell us what the laws that has been violated,

0:32:05.120 --> 0:32:06.800
<v Speaker 1>but they know there's a there, No, there's a crime

0:32:06.800 --> 0:32:09.440
<v Speaker 1>in there somewhere. That's the way they've always approached us president.

0:32:09.520 --> 0:32:10.960
<v Speaker 1>We know he's a criminal, we just can't tell you

0:32:10.960 --> 0:32:15.920
<v Speaker 1>what law he's broken. Yet that's an interesting approach, very

0:32:16.080 --> 0:32:20.120
<v Speaker 1>very Soviet in feel, and I suppose that shouldn't be

0:32:20.120 --> 0:32:24.160
<v Speaker 1>surprising given the way that the left is embracing the

0:32:24.240 --> 0:32:28.320
<v Speaker 1>suppression of common knowledge and public information like the whistleblower's name.

0:32:29.120 --> 0:32:32.719
<v Speaker 1>That YouTube is taking down videos now with that is stunning.

0:32:32.760 --> 0:32:36.000
<v Speaker 1>I've also heard that Facebook perhaps is I can't remember

0:32:36.000 --> 0:32:38.520
<v Speaker 1>which platforms now are okay and which ones aren't with it,

0:32:38.560 --> 0:32:41.760
<v Speaker 1>but there are definitely some social media platforms where you

0:32:42.080 --> 0:32:47.040
<v Speaker 1>cannot even if you're referring to someone else's reporting. I mean,

0:32:47.080 --> 0:32:50.320
<v Speaker 1>it really is Voldemort from the Harry Potter series, which

0:32:50.360 --> 0:32:52.680
<v Speaker 1>I haven't read, and I think people reference too much

0:32:52.680 --> 0:32:55.480
<v Speaker 1>in pop culture, particularly in the media. But you know,

0:32:55.520 --> 0:32:59.120
<v Speaker 1>it's he who shall not be named, and the fact

0:32:59.120 --> 0:33:02.000
<v Speaker 1>of the matter is that he has been named, and

0:33:02.120 --> 0:33:04.400
<v Speaker 1>we do have the public does have a right to know,

0:33:04.480 --> 0:33:07.440
<v Speaker 1>an interest in knowing exactly what is going on here,

0:33:08.680 --> 0:33:14.320
<v Speaker 1>and journalists have abandoned their posts. Journalists have decided that

0:33:14.360 --> 0:33:17.320
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't matter what the damage is that's done to

0:33:17.360 --> 0:33:21.200
<v Speaker 1>the country in this process, because the president's such a

0:33:21.240 --> 0:33:23.560
<v Speaker 1>bad man that even if they have to lie, cheat

0:33:23.600 --> 0:33:25.560
<v Speaker 1>and steel to get him out office, they'll be doing

0:33:25.560 --> 0:33:28.520
<v Speaker 1>their patriotic duty in the process. Oh I mentioned Nicki

0:33:28.600 --> 0:33:30.680
<v Speaker 1>Haley before I wanted to get back to this. She

0:33:30.760 --> 0:33:32.720
<v Speaker 1>talked about some of the people around the president who

0:33:32.720 --> 0:33:37.400
<v Speaker 1>are not helpful to him, and she said John Kelley

0:33:37.440 --> 0:33:39.240
<v Speaker 1>and Rex Tillerson, both of them. She does not have

0:33:39.200 --> 0:33:41.440
<v Speaker 1>a nice words to say about Rex Tillerson, which is unsurprising.

0:33:41.840 --> 0:33:43.920
<v Speaker 1>Here's what she said though, about undermining a president played

0:33:43.960 --> 0:33:47.160
<v Speaker 1>twenty four. Instead of saying that to me, they should

0:33:47.200 --> 0:33:49.720
<v Speaker 1>have been saying that to the president, not asking me

0:33:49.800 --> 0:33:53.720
<v Speaker 1>to join them on their sidebar plan. It should have

0:33:53.760 --> 0:33:56.320
<v Speaker 1>been go tell the president what your differences are and

0:33:56.520 --> 0:33:58.760
<v Speaker 1>quit if you don't like what he's doing. But to

0:33:58.920 --> 0:34:04.320
<v Speaker 1>undermine a present he's really a very dangerous thing, and

0:34:04.440 --> 0:34:07.120
<v Speaker 1>it goes against the Constitution, and it goes against what

0:34:07.160 --> 0:34:12.200
<v Speaker 1>the American people want, and it was offensive. There are

0:34:12.239 --> 0:34:14.520
<v Speaker 1>people all across the government, it seems, who think that

0:34:14.560 --> 0:34:17.720
<v Speaker 1>the president is not really the president, including very senior

0:34:17.760 --> 0:34:21.279
<v Speaker 1>officials who worked for him. I just am waiting for

0:34:21.280 --> 0:34:23.920
<v Speaker 1>the president to make one decision. I hear all the

0:34:23.920 --> 0:34:27.239
<v Speaker 1>time about how these people need to Oh, he's he's

0:34:27.239 --> 0:34:29.239
<v Speaker 1>so scary and terrible. Anything we have to do to

0:34:29.280 --> 0:34:32.520
<v Speaker 1>stop I just need one instance of the president making

0:34:32.520 --> 0:34:37.360
<v Speaker 1>a decision that is a catastrophically bad decision. One decision,

0:34:37.400 --> 0:34:40.120
<v Speaker 1>I'd like one. They said that about the trade war,

0:34:40.280 --> 0:34:43.240
<v Speaker 1>they were wrong. They said that about Syria, they were wrong.

0:34:43.440 --> 0:34:45.359
<v Speaker 1>They've said that about tax cuts that I mean good

0:34:45.360 --> 0:34:48.160
<v Speaker 1>on the list. They've said that about trying to secure

0:34:48.160 --> 0:34:50.839
<v Speaker 1>the border, about building a wall, they were wrong. Where

0:34:50.920 --> 0:34:54.080
<v Speaker 1>is this catastrophically bad decision making except in the personnelity

0:34:54.160 --> 0:34:56.080
<v Speaker 1>puts around him who tell us that he's such a

0:34:56.080 --> 0:34:59.160
<v Speaker 1>bad decision making. The whistle blower and the president's right

0:34:59.520 --> 0:35:02.480
<v Speaker 1>to zent a defense. That is the piece by my

0:35:02.520 --> 0:35:05.560
<v Speaker 1>man Andy McCarthy, who is of course at Nashal Review

0:35:05.600 --> 0:35:08.879
<v Speaker 1>also Fox News contributor. He joins us now to tell

0:35:08.960 --> 0:35:11.760
<v Speaker 1>us what's going on? Andy? How are you doing, my friend?

0:35:12.440 --> 0:35:14.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm doing great, Buck, how are you? I'm good? All right,

0:35:14.480 --> 0:35:15.879
<v Speaker 1>So let let's get into this because I've been talking

0:35:15.880 --> 0:35:18.000
<v Speaker 1>about this for a while. There's there's a concept here

0:35:18.800 --> 0:35:23.160
<v Speaker 1>of the right to confront your accuser, and then there's

0:35:23.200 --> 0:35:26.520
<v Speaker 1>the actual specific law of when you have a legal

0:35:26.640 --> 0:35:29.239
<v Speaker 1>right to confront the accuser. Can you just kind of

0:35:29.239 --> 0:35:33.920
<v Speaker 1>walk us through here the differentiation between, you know, whether

0:35:33.920 --> 0:35:36.120
<v Speaker 1>the whistleblower, as a function of law, needs to test

0:35:36.120 --> 0:35:39.320
<v Speaker 1>five versus whether in a fair process set up of

0:35:39.400 --> 0:35:43.120
<v Speaker 1>the Congress, the whistleblower would in fact testify. Yeah, I

0:35:43.160 --> 0:35:46.200
<v Speaker 1>think the latter, you could say, for sure, Bucket a

0:35:46.239 --> 0:35:49.920
<v Speaker 1>fair process, he could be called to testify. This so

0:35:50.000 --> 0:35:54.360
<v Speaker 1>much legal confusion about all this, and people are throwing

0:35:54.400 --> 0:35:57.360
<v Speaker 1>a lot of half baked ideas around, not least the

0:35:58.080 --> 0:36:01.880
<v Speaker 1>idea of whistleblower itself. I've tried to point out that

0:36:02.800 --> 0:36:10.080
<v Speaker 1>this fellow who's been identified elsewhere, if that is the

0:36:10.120 --> 0:36:15.680
<v Speaker 1>guy we're talking about, he's been called a whistleblower, and

0:36:15.800 --> 0:36:20.640
<v Speaker 1>maybe in some sort of descriptive, non legal sense, he's

0:36:20.640 --> 0:36:24.479
<v Speaker 1>a whistleblower like a common usage sense of that term,

0:36:24.880 --> 0:36:28.280
<v Speaker 1>but under the only sense that matters, the statutory sense.

0:36:28.560 --> 0:36:31.920
<v Speaker 1>He's not a whistleblower because the statute that they're relying

0:36:32.000 --> 0:36:37.680
<v Speaker 1>on relates to intelligence activities that are under the jurisdiction

0:36:37.719 --> 0:36:40.840
<v Speaker 1>of the Director of National Intelligence. This guy is not

0:36:40.920 --> 0:36:45.359
<v Speaker 1>reporting on intelligence activity. He's reporting on the president's activities,

0:36:45.760 --> 0:36:51.640
<v Speaker 1>specifically the conduct of foreign policy with a counterpart in Ukraine,

0:36:51.640 --> 0:36:55.120
<v Speaker 1>a foreign national or a foreign government. That is not

0:36:55.200 --> 0:36:59.280
<v Speaker 1>what's covered in that statute. So he's not a whistleblower,

0:36:59.360 --> 0:37:04.120
<v Speaker 1>even though the Trump intelligence community decided to treat him

0:37:04.120 --> 0:37:08.000
<v Speaker 1>as one in an abundance of caution. So he doesn't

0:37:08.000 --> 0:37:13.920
<v Speaker 1>even qualify for whistleblower status and under the law, and

0:37:14.040 --> 0:37:21.440
<v Speaker 1>even if he did, the whistleblower protections that would be

0:37:21.480 --> 0:37:25.319
<v Speaker 1>afforded to him would be against reprisals. Other than the

0:37:25.840 --> 0:37:29.759
<v Speaker 1>Inspector General of the intelligence community. No one is required

0:37:29.800 --> 0:37:37.360
<v Speaker 1>to give the whistleblower anonymity, and even the Inspector General

0:37:37.440 --> 0:37:39.919
<v Speaker 1>is not required to give it to him under all circumstances.

0:37:39.920 --> 0:37:43.520
<v Speaker 1>For example, if you will refer a matter to a

0:37:43.640 --> 0:37:47.480
<v Speaker 1>prosecutor for trial, the expectation is that the whistleblower could

0:37:47.520 --> 0:37:50.240
<v Speaker 1>become a witness, where he would have to be public.

0:37:50.680 --> 0:37:53.520
<v Speaker 1>So you know, the whole idea of him being a

0:37:53.520 --> 0:37:58.120
<v Speaker 1>whistleblower and entitled to anonymity is bogus. And then we

0:37:58.239 --> 0:38:02.600
<v Speaker 1>get to this whole business of you know, confrontation clause

0:38:03.120 --> 0:38:07.280
<v Speaker 1>and should he be required to testify? The confrontation clause

0:38:08.120 --> 0:38:12.560
<v Speaker 1>only gives a defendant in a criminal prosecution, and impeachment

0:38:12.640 --> 0:38:16.759
<v Speaker 1>is not a criminal prosecution. But even if it applied,

0:38:17.440 --> 0:38:21.000
<v Speaker 1>you would only get the right to confront the witnesses

0:38:21.040 --> 0:38:24.520
<v Speaker 1>that the prosecutor chooses to call in the trial. So

0:38:24.719 --> 0:38:28.160
<v Speaker 1>if you analogize the Democrats to a prosecutor in a

0:38:28.160 --> 0:38:32.520
<v Speaker 1>criminal case, if they don't call the witness, the whistleblower

0:38:32.680 --> 0:38:36.080
<v Speaker 1>so called, as a witness, then you wouldn't have a

0:38:36.200 --> 0:38:40.800
<v Speaker 1>Sixth Amendment confrontation clause right to call him or to

0:38:41.040 --> 0:38:45.560
<v Speaker 1>cross examine him at the trial. And finally, that's why

0:38:45.600 --> 0:38:48.719
<v Speaker 1>I've argued that what they should be talking about here

0:38:48.840 --> 0:38:52.040
<v Speaker 1>is not the president's confrontation rights. It's his right to

0:38:52.120 --> 0:38:55.880
<v Speaker 1>present a defense, and in any proceeding that's not a

0:38:56.000 --> 0:38:58.920
<v Speaker 1>kangaroo court, you always get that is the president being

0:38:58.920 --> 0:39:01.200
<v Speaker 1>afforded any right to a defense. From what you're seeing

0:39:01.200 --> 0:39:05.600
<v Speaker 1>so far, not at this stage. And that's because I

0:39:05.640 --> 0:39:09.480
<v Speaker 1>think Bogus Lee the Democrats are equating, at least when

0:39:09.480 --> 0:39:12.799
<v Speaker 1>it's convenient to them to do it. They are equating

0:39:12.880 --> 0:39:17.320
<v Speaker 1>this phase, this intelligence committee phase run by Adam Schiff,

0:39:17.840 --> 0:39:21.720
<v Speaker 1>of their investigation. They're equating that to a grand jury. Now,

0:39:22.040 --> 0:39:27.759
<v Speaker 1>in a grand jury proceeding, the prosecutor is not required

0:39:27.840 --> 0:39:31.600
<v Speaker 1>to present exculpatory evidence to the grand jury, because the

0:39:31.640 --> 0:39:34.440
<v Speaker 1>only thing that grand jury has did or decide is

0:39:34.480 --> 0:39:38.680
<v Speaker 1>the limited question of whether there's probable cause that a

0:39:38.800 --> 0:39:42.439
<v Speaker 1>crime got committed, such that the prosecutor should be able

0:39:42.480 --> 0:39:44.839
<v Speaker 1>to get an indictment, and then you bring the case

0:39:44.880 --> 0:39:47.560
<v Speaker 1>to a trial court, where the defendant would get to

0:39:47.600 --> 0:39:50.920
<v Speaker 1>present his defense and have all those rights, etc. The

0:39:51.000 --> 0:39:54.839
<v Speaker 1>reason I say that Schiff is only doing that grand

0:39:54.920 --> 0:39:58.600
<v Speaker 1>jury analogy when it's convenient for him is that the

0:39:58.719 --> 0:40:03.880
<v Speaker 1>tradeoff for prosecutors is, yes, in the grand jury you

0:40:03.920 --> 0:40:06.160
<v Speaker 1>get to give the grand jury is only your version

0:40:06.200 --> 0:40:10.520
<v Speaker 1>of events, and you can muzzle the defense's version of events,

0:40:10.840 --> 0:40:13.319
<v Speaker 1>but it's all got to be done in secret so

0:40:13.360 --> 0:40:17.040
<v Speaker 1>that you don't prejudice the defendant. And what Schiff is

0:40:17.040 --> 0:40:19.839
<v Speaker 1>trying to do here is have the best of both worlds.

0:40:20.000 --> 0:40:23.920
<v Speaker 1>It's a leaky grand jury, right. He wants to exactly right.

0:40:24.000 --> 0:40:29.040
<v Speaker 1>He wants to muzzle the exculpatory evidence, muzzle the president's defense,

0:40:29.719 --> 0:40:31.920
<v Speaker 1>but he wants to take what he thinks of the

0:40:31.960 --> 0:40:35.040
<v Speaker 1>best witnesses to him and go public with it. Which

0:40:35.080 --> 0:40:37.840
<v Speaker 1>is why I think that people who are describing this

0:40:37.960 --> 0:40:41.480
<v Speaker 1>as a show trial are exactly right about that. Now,

0:40:41.520 --> 0:40:42.920
<v Speaker 1>this point that was made, I don't know if you

0:40:42.960 --> 0:40:45.440
<v Speaker 1>saw it on the view Andy, that it could be

0:40:45.480 --> 0:40:49.120
<v Speaker 1>a crime to speak the name of the alleged whistleblower.

0:40:50.360 --> 0:40:52.799
<v Speaker 1>How do people with legal degrees say this stuff on TV?

0:40:52.960 --> 0:40:55.640
<v Speaker 1>I just want to know. Well, I don't know. I mean,

0:40:55.680 --> 0:40:59.240
<v Speaker 1>I spent twenty years in courtrooms with people with legal

0:40:59.280 --> 0:41:03.120
<v Speaker 1>degree saying kinds of crazy stuff. I gotta tell you.

0:41:03.480 --> 0:41:06.520
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes that comes with the territory. But I find though

0:41:06.880 --> 0:41:10.080
<v Speaker 1>that when they're talking on television what went on in

0:41:10.120 --> 0:41:15.120
<v Speaker 1>the courtroom seems modestum. That is just, you know, it's nonsense.

0:41:15.200 --> 0:41:19.839
<v Speaker 1>There's no legal prescription against mentioning the whistle blower. And

0:41:19.880 --> 0:41:22.600
<v Speaker 1>in fact, if the whistle blower was blowing a whistle

0:41:23.080 --> 0:41:25.919
<v Speaker 1>on a Democrat, the media would not only report the name,

0:41:26.239 --> 0:41:29.040
<v Speaker 1>they would lecture you about the public's right to know

0:41:29.320 --> 0:41:32.320
<v Speaker 1>and how that takes precedence of and needs to secrecy

0:41:32.320 --> 0:41:34.840
<v Speaker 1>and all that stuff. So it always with these guys

0:41:34.840 --> 0:41:38.080
<v Speaker 1>depends on whose ox is being bored. So now you

0:41:38.080 --> 0:41:41.160
<v Speaker 1>know it's a Republican president. So the whistle blower is,

0:41:42.239 --> 0:41:45.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, one of humanity's great hero their their situational

0:41:45.680 --> 0:41:50.360
<v Speaker 1>ethics are highly flexible, acrobatic. Even I would say, I

0:41:50.360 --> 0:41:54.319
<v Speaker 1>would ask Andy, what are you expecting this week now

0:41:54.320 --> 0:41:56.719
<v Speaker 1>that the stuff's coming out in the open? Give us

0:41:56.719 --> 0:41:59.319
<v Speaker 1>your your preview where you think, you know, where are

0:41:59.360 --> 0:42:01.040
<v Speaker 1>they going to take this space and everything that that

0:42:01.120 --> 0:42:03.080
<v Speaker 1>shift and the Democrats have been doing so far. And

0:42:03.120 --> 0:42:05.960
<v Speaker 1>also what do you think Republicans response should be in

0:42:06.000 --> 0:42:09.759
<v Speaker 1>the Congress? Yeah, I think this part for the Democrats

0:42:09.800 --> 0:42:13.440
<v Speaker 1>standpoint book that this three or four days of hearings,

0:42:13.440 --> 0:42:15.200
<v Speaker 1>whatever it's going to be this week, is going to

0:42:15.239 --> 0:42:19.000
<v Speaker 1>be pretty scripted. They've picked out the handful of witnesses

0:42:19.040 --> 0:42:22.399
<v Speaker 1>that they think are best for them to bruise up

0:42:22.840 --> 0:42:29.440
<v Speaker 1>President Trump. They're essentially going to deny the Republicans the

0:42:29.560 --> 0:42:32.400
<v Speaker 1>right to call witnesses that would put these things in context.

0:42:32.440 --> 0:42:36.399
<v Speaker 1>So what the Republicans want to show is that if

0:42:36.440 --> 0:42:43.360
<v Speaker 1>the President was demanding investigations of the Bidens and investigations

0:42:43.400 --> 0:42:49.560
<v Speaker 1>of corruption, it was because Ukraine has pervasively corrupt. There's

0:42:49.600 --> 0:42:52.520
<v Speaker 1>reason to believe good faith, reason to believe the Bidens

0:42:52.560 --> 0:42:56.680
<v Speaker 1>were engaged in corrupt self dealing. And what the Republicans

0:42:56.719 --> 0:43:00.320
<v Speaker 1>also want to show is there's a twenty sixteen election

0:43:01.280 --> 0:43:07.520
<v Speaker 1>component of a Ukraine component in what would be what

0:43:07.560 --> 0:43:11.400
<v Speaker 1>we would think of as the bar Durham investigation into

0:43:11.400 --> 0:43:14.399
<v Speaker 1>the origins of the Trump Russia investigation. What I mean

0:43:14.480 --> 0:43:17.440
<v Speaker 1>by that is there's a lot of reporting that the

0:43:17.440 --> 0:43:22.000
<v Speaker 1>Obama administration leaned on Ukraine to do things like investigate

0:43:22.080 --> 0:43:28.279
<v Speaker 1>Paul Manafort, who was temporarily Trump's campaign chairman. And there's

0:43:28.280 --> 0:43:33.880
<v Speaker 1>also evidence that Ukrainian officials colluded with the Clinton campaign.

0:43:34.719 --> 0:43:37.160
<v Speaker 1>And that's just not me. That's not just me saying

0:43:37.200 --> 0:43:40.440
<v Speaker 1>that a Ukrainian court has found that to be the case.

0:43:40.960 --> 0:43:43.319
<v Speaker 1>So I think the Republicans want to bring all of

0:43:43.360 --> 0:43:47.120
<v Speaker 1>this out in order to place in context exactly what

0:43:47.360 --> 0:43:53.560
<v Speaker 1>President Trump was asking of President Zalinsky of Ukraine, and naturally,

0:43:53.600 --> 0:43:57.000
<v Speaker 1>the Democrats want to keep all of that out and

0:43:57.040 --> 0:44:01.439
<v Speaker 1>then suggest that you Trump was simply doing nothing other

0:44:01.480 --> 0:44:06.320
<v Speaker 1>than demanding an investigation of his political rival for potential

0:44:06.400 --> 0:44:09.400
<v Speaker 1>violations of Ukrainian law. And they want to, of course,

0:44:09.440 --> 0:44:12.600
<v Speaker 1>then make the argument that, you know, the federal government,

0:44:12.760 --> 0:44:18.160
<v Speaker 1>the American federal government exists to protect us from foreign regimes.

0:44:18.280 --> 0:44:22.040
<v Speaker 1>We shouldn't have a president encouraging a foreign regime to

0:44:22.120 --> 0:44:26.719
<v Speaker 1>investigate an American citizen for violations of Ukrainian law. Now, Andy,

0:44:26.800 --> 0:44:28.920
<v Speaker 1>I want to ask you because because you know Politico,

0:44:29.560 --> 0:44:34.320
<v Speaker 1>for example, reporter this recently, according to Giuliani, Ukrainian officials

0:44:34.320 --> 0:44:37.840
<v Speaker 1>conspired with the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee

0:44:38.000 --> 0:44:42.080
<v Speaker 1>to help boost the Democratic nominee's campaign and damage Trump's candidacy.

0:44:42.600 --> 0:44:45.480
<v Speaker 1>No evidence has emerged to support that idea. That's Politico,

0:44:45.520 --> 0:44:47.520
<v Speaker 1>which was the rival of The Hill where I used

0:44:47.560 --> 0:44:50.480
<v Speaker 1>to work for full disclosure right. And then you go

0:44:50.560 --> 0:44:56.600
<v Speaker 1>back to January of twenty seventeen, also in Politico, not

0:44:56.800 --> 0:45:02.160
<v Speaker 1>retracted or amended the following Ukrainian Africa to sabotage Trump backfire.

0:45:02.640 --> 0:45:05.680
<v Speaker 1>keV officials are scrambling to make amends with the President

0:45:05.719 --> 0:45:09.000
<v Speaker 1>elect after quietly working to boost Clinton. And it goes

0:45:09.040 --> 0:45:12.040
<v Speaker 1>on to talk about how Ukrainian officials tried to help

0:45:12.160 --> 0:45:15.640
<v Speaker 1>Hillary Clinton and undermine Trump by publicly questioning his fitness

0:45:15.640 --> 0:45:19.400
<v Speaker 1>for office. They also disseminated documents implicating a top Trump

0:45:19.440 --> 0:45:22.799
<v Speaker 1>aid in corruption and suggested they were investigating the matter,

0:45:23.040 --> 0:45:26.520
<v Speaker 1>only to back away after the election. They helped Clinton's

0:45:26.560 --> 0:45:29.520
<v Speaker 1>allies research damaging information on Trump at his advisors, according

0:45:29.520 --> 0:45:33.320
<v Speaker 1>to Politico, So which Politico do we believe? Andy? And

0:45:33.680 --> 0:45:38.040
<v Speaker 1>a more serious question is this denied? Is this not

0:45:38.120 --> 0:45:40.960
<v Speaker 1>what happened? Because if this is what happened, then everybody

0:45:40.960 --> 0:45:44.560
<v Speaker 1>that's running around screaming treason for Trump asking a country

0:45:44.560 --> 0:45:46.759
<v Speaker 1>to investigate what seemed to me to be quite a

0:45:46.760 --> 0:45:49.719
<v Speaker 1>corrupt arrangement needs to explain why it was okay for

0:45:49.760 --> 0:45:52.279
<v Speaker 1>the Obama administration to do that to try to help

0:45:52.360 --> 0:45:56.279
<v Speaker 1>Hillary during the election. Yeah, Buck, I think what we

0:45:56.360 --> 0:45:59.360
<v Speaker 1>need to watch very carefully here is if you listen

0:45:59.440 --> 0:46:02.600
<v Speaker 1>to the thing that Adam Schiff says and the way

0:46:02.640 --> 0:46:06.040
<v Speaker 1>they are being reported in the media. What he's now

0:46:06.560 --> 0:46:11.759
<v Speaker 1>saying is that what Trump was looking for was an

0:46:11.760 --> 0:46:20.280
<v Speaker 1>investigation into what he calls a refuted conspiracy theory about

0:46:20.520 --> 0:46:25.440
<v Speaker 1>Ukraine being connected somehow to CrowdStrike, which is the outfit

0:46:25.560 --> 0:46:30.240
<v Speaker 1>that looked at the server exactly right. So what Schiff

0:46:30.360 --> 0:46:33.319
<v Speaker 1>is trying to do is miniaturize this into saying what

0:46:33.360 --> 0:46:36.759
<v Speaker 1>Trump was asking for was an investigation into whether the

0:46:36.880 --> 0:46:41.080
<v Speaker 1>Ukrainians had something to do with the DNC server, And

0:46:41.440 --> 0:46:47.439
<v Speaker 1>that may be a conspiracy theory that doesn't have much

0:46:47.440 --> 0:46:50.879
<v Speaker 1>in the way of legs, but the story of Ukraine's

0:46:50.960 --> 0:46:57.080
<v Speaker 1>connection to the Obama administration's investigation of the Trump campaign

0:46:57.120 --> 0:47:00.439
<v Speaker 1>in twenty sixteen has a lot more to it than

0:47:00.840 --> 0:47:04.040
<v Speaker 1>the server and crab strike. So I think what we

0:47:04.040 --> 0:47:08.799
<v Speaker 1>should do is like sort of carefully watch Shift and

0:47:08.840 --> 0:47:11.680
<v Speaker 1>watch the way he is parsing that end of it,

0:47:12.040 --> 0:47:16.200
<v Speaker 1>because you know, obviously, again there is a whole angle

0:47:16.800 --> 0:47:22.920
<v Speaker 1>involving the Obama administration leaning on the Ukrainians to investigate Manafort,

0:47:23.400 --> 0:47:28.680
<v Speaker 1>and a Ukrainian legislator and the head of the Ukrainian

0:47:29.280 --> 0:47:35.120
<v Speaker 1>so called anti corruption police leaking information to the media

0:47:35.320 --> 0:47:38.919
<v Speaker 1>that was harmful to Maniford with the intention of trying

0:47:38.960 --> 0:47:41.799
<v Speaker 1>to help the Clinton campaign. I mean, that's that's out there,

0:47:41.840 --> 0:47:45.759
<v Speaker 1>and that's the reason the Republicans have asked for these

0:47:45.760 --> 0:47:49.280
<v Speaker 1>witnesses that are connected to those things is precisely because

0:47:49.280 --> 0:47:51.480
<v Speaker 1>they want to put all that out in public and

0:47:51.560 --> 0:47:54.440
<v Speaker 1>try to put the president's comments in contact. So there

0:47:54.600 --> 0:47:58.080
<v Speaker 1>is there is a serious possibility here based on reporting

0:47:58.560 --> 0:48:01.600
<v Speaker 1>from news organizations that didn't realize then that this would

0:48:01.600 --> 0:48:05.240
<v Speaker 1>be helpful to Republicans, perhaps now that there was outreach

0:48:05.320 --> 0:48:08.400
<v Speaker 1>from the Obama administration to go after a Trump campaign,

0:48:09.120 --> 0:48:13.440
<v Speaker 1>Trump campaign chairman at the time, right, which would certainly

0:48:13.480 --> 0:48:15.720
<v Speaker 1>look a lot like asking for foreign interference in an election.

0:48:15.840 --> 0:48:19.680
<v Speaker 1>Whether or not Manta Fort was dirty, Yeah, and Buck,

0:48:19.719 --> 0:48:24.600
<v Speaker 1>I would underscore a Ukrainian court has found that the

0:48:24.719 --> 0:48:29.320
<v Speaker 1>Ukrainian legislator and the head of the anti corruption police

0:48:30.280 --> 0:48:35.240
<v Speaker 1>colluded with an American campaign named with a Clinton campaign

0:48:35.239 --> 0:48:38.479
<v Speaker 1>in order to interfere in the American election. They've they've

0:48:38.520 --> 0:48:41.680
<v Speaker 1>found that, So you know, this is not something we're

0:48:41.719 --> 0:48:43.640
<v Speaker 1>pulling out of the sky. And what's going on in

0:48:43.760 --> 0:48:45.600
<v Speaker 1>real quick before let you go back to the rest

0:48:45.600 --> 0:48:47.840
<v Speaker 1>of your life. What's going on here with the delayed

0:48:47.880 --> 0:48:51.319
<v Speaker 1>report on Fi's abuse. Now I'm hearing you know, I

0:48:51.400 --> 0:48:53.200
<v Speaker 1>heard it was I heard it was going to be Halloween,

0:48:53.200 --> 0:48:55.160
<v Speaker 1>and I heard it was going to before Thanksgiving. Now

0:48:55.200 --> 0:48:57.839
<v Speaker 1>it's like I'm here and hopefully before the next election. Practically, well,

0:48:57.880 --> 0:49:01.320
<v Speaker 1>what's going on any ideas well? I think I still

0:49:01.320 --> 0:49:05.000
<v Speaker 1>think it's going to be. I hope it's before Thanksgiving,

0:49:05.040 --> 0:49:08.480
<v Speaker 1>but I think it'll be. It'll be reasonably soon. And

0:49:08.520 --> 0:49:10.839
<v Speaker 1>I think buck that all that's going on here. I've

0:49:10.880 --> 0:49:14.200
<v Speaker 1>heard some theories that are out there that, you know,

0:49:14.239 --> 0:49:16.400
<v Speaker 1>maybe he's dragging his feet because he doesn't want to

0:49:16.400 --> 0:49:20.440
<v Speaker 1>step on whatever Dorham is doing. That's the latest theory.

0:49:21.160 --> 0:49:24.800
<v Speaker 1>My own theory for what it's worth is that Horowitz

0:49:24.880 --> 0:49:28.320
<v Speaker 1>is indicated to Congress into the Justice Department, that he's done,

0:49:29.080 --> 0:49:33.960
<v Speaker 1>and that they are in the final rushes of putting

0:49:33.960 --> 0:49:36.440
<v Speaker 1>the report out. And my sense of it is that

0:49:36.560 --> 0:49:40.800
<v Speaker 1>the sheer bulk of this report, remember the Clinton emails

0:49:40.840 --> 0:49:43.440
<v Speaker 1>one was like five or six hundred pages. This is

0:49:43.480 --> 0:49:46.520
<v Speaker 1>going to be a bigger report than that, maybe hundreds

0:49:46.520 --> 0:49:49.400
<v Speaker 1>of pages longer. And they have to do a line

0:49:49.400 --> 0:49:54.960
<v Speaker 1>by line with every intelligence agency that has equity in

0:49:55.080 --> 0:49:59.360
<v Speaker 1>terms of anything that's designated as classified information, and Bar's

0:49:59.360 --> 0:50:01.680
<v Speaker 1>got to do a view about, you know, what stays

0:50:01.719 --> 0:50:04.920
<v Speaker 1>classified and what gets unclassified. And I just think that

0:50:04.920 --> 0:50:09.240
<v Speaker 1>that's a complicated process to get through with a document

0:50:09.280 --> 0:50:12.040
<v Speaker 1>that's going to turn out to be very, very long,

0:50:12.440 --> 0:50:14.640
<v Speaker 1>and the real deal, by the way, I've been reading

0:50:14.640 --> 0:50:16.960
<v Speaker 1>about him, and it seems like he is the guy

0:50:17.040 --> 0:50:22.279
<v Speaker 1>that we would want looking into this. You're talking Durham, Yeah, yeah, yeah.

0:50:22.400 --> 0:50:26.839
<v Speaker 1>Durham's a terrific guy. He's an excellent prosecutor. I happen

0:50:26.880 --> 0:50:30.680
<v Speaker 1>to know him personally. I haven't worked with him, but

0:50:30.800 --> 0:50:34.040
<v Speaker 1>I know him and think very well of him. Judge Mukasey,

0:50:34.600 --> 0:50:38.759
<v Speaker 1>the former age of the Bush administration, who did not

0:50:38.840 --> 0:50:41.560
<v Speaker 1>only work with him but picked him to do the

0:50:41.600 --> 0:50:46.040
<v Speaker 1>investigation involving the CIA interrogations, thinks the world of him,

0:50:46.040 --> 0:50:48.480
<v Speaker 1>which goes a long way in my book. But he's

0:50:48.480 --> 0:50:54.120
<v Speaker 1>done these kinds of investigations buck for administrations of both parties,

0:50:54.160 --> 0:50:58.919
<v Speaker 1>going back to the Clinton administration, and everybody says that,

0:50:59.080 --> 0:51:02.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, he's a very scrupulous guy who you won't

0:51:02.160 --> 0:51:04.520
<v Speaker 1>hear from because he doesn't talk to the media and

0:51:04.600 --> 0:51:06.520
<v Speaker 1>he puts his nose to the grindstone and gets a

0:51:06.640 --> 0:51:09.799
<v Speaker 1>job done. He's not fast, if that's what people are

0:51:09.840 --> 0:51:11.879
<v Speaker 1>looking for, that are going to get that, but he's

0:51:11.960 --> 0:51:14.880
<v Speaker 1>thorough all right. Andy McCarthy, everybody check out his latest

0:51:14.880 --> 0:51:17.560
<v Speaker 1>on nationalview dot com, The Whistleblower and the President's right

0:51:17.640 --> 0:51:20.000
<v Speaker 1>to present a defense, and he thanks so much for

0:51:20.040 --> 0:51:21.920
<v Speaker 1>your time. We'll talk to you soon. My pleasure. But

0:51:22.120 --> 0:51:23.919
<v Speaker 1>and he's the best, isn't he. It's always so fun

0:51:23.920 --> 0:51:27.439
<v Speaker 1>to have Andy McCarthy on. As good as any legal

0:51:27.480 --> 0:51:31.400
<v Speaker 1>endless you'll find anywhere, and honest about it all. The

0:51:31.520 --> 0:51:33.680
<v Speaker 1>poll that I mentioned before about how Democrats are crazy,

0:51:33.680 --> 0:51:36.759
<v Speaker 1>it's a real poll. Axio supported on it today. Here's

0:51:36.760 --> 0:51:38.839
<v Speaker 1>what he got. More than seventy percent of Democrats say

0:51:38.880 --> 0:51:43.440
<v Speaker 1>politics is making them increasingly angry about America, leaving them

0:51:43.440 --> 0:51:46.040
<v Speaker 1>feeling like strangers in their own land. According to a

0:51:46.120 --> 0:51:50.919
<v Speaker 1>Axios on HBO pole the big picture, Americans a whole

0:51:50.920 --> 0:51:53.160
<v Speaker 1>are just playing mad and feeling like strangers their own land.

0:51:54.280 --> 0:51:58.040
<v Speaker 1>Republicans fifty seven percent are angry, compared to seventy four

0:51:58.320 --> 0:52:02.560
<v Speaker 1>percent of Democrats. Seventy one percent of Democrats say they

0:52:02.560 --> 0:52:04.879
<v Speaker 1>feel like a strand of their own win folks. Seven

0:52:04.920 --> 0:52:06.840
<v Speaker 1>out of ten people in this survey who are Democrats

0:52:06.880 --> 0:52:08.600
<v Speaker 1>are saying, by the way, five out of ten republican.

0:52:08.680 --> 0:52:10.600
<v Speaker 1>But you know there's always gonna be some angry people.

0:52:10.640 --> 0:52:14.120
<v Speaker 1>Life is frustrating and difficult. But seven out of ten Democrats,

0:52:14.239 --> 0:52:17.640
<v Speaker 1>according to this poll, are angry right now because of politics,

0:52:17.640 --> 0:52:20.840
<v Speaker 1>specifically because of politics. So when I tell you that

0:52:20.840 --> 0:52:23.520
<v Speaker 1>there's a mass delusion, there's a mass hysteria. The Democrats

0:52:23.520 --> 0:52:26.160
<v Speaker 1>have lost it. The numbers back me up. I'm not

0:52:26.239 --> 0:52:29.800
<v Speaker 1>just pulling this stuff out of nowhere. The numbers suggest

0:52:29.920 --> 0:52:33.279
<v Speaker 1>what I'm saying is true. Because here's the thing, it

0:52:33.560 --> 0:52:38.680
<v Speaker 1>is true. I think we understand that Democrats have gone crazy.

0:52:39.880 --> 0:52:42.680
<v Speaker 1>They have been broken in the Trump era and have

0:52:42.719 --> 0:52:45.879
<v Speaker 1>no interest in trying to set things right in any

0:52:45.920 --> 0:52:48.120
<v Speaker 1>way other that there were rather in any way that

0:52:48.160 --> 0:52:50.200
<v Speaker 1>does not involve the removal of his president from office

0:52:50.200 --> 0:52:52.680
<v Speaker 1>and from power. That that much is very clear at

0:52:52.680 --> 0:52:54.719
<v Speaker 1>this point in time. The Danka kids, all they want

0:52:54.719 --> 0:52:58.239
<v Speaker 1>to do is become Americans. They came here when they

0:52:58.239 --> 0:53:01.840
<v Speaker 1>were little. They weren't they didn't cross the border themselves,

0:53:01.880 --> 0:53:04.920
<v Speaker 1>their parents brought them. And so many of them are

0:53:04.960 --> 0:53:07.040
<v Speaker 1>in our armed forces. So many of them are going

0:53:07.080 --> 0:53:09.480
<v Speaker 1>to college and trying to make a good life for themselves.

0:53:09.880 --> 0:53:15.319
<v Speaker 1>There's broad consensus Democrats, Independence, Republicans that these DACA ought

0:53:15.320 --> 0:53:19.240
<v Speaker 1>to pass, and I hope the courts will uphold that. Oh,

0:53:19.280 --> 0:53:25.080
<v Speaker 1>my friends, so much dishonesty around the immigration debate. It's

0:53:26.040 --> 0:53:29.120
<v Speaker 1>one of the most difficult conversations to have with liberals

0:53:29.160 --> 0:53:31.440
<v Speaker 1>these days because they've just been told so much that

0:53:31.600 --> 0:53:33.719
<v Speaker 1>is not true, and they are so insistent on it

0:53:34.560 --> 0:53:37.560
<v Speaker 1>being true. We have a couple of very important dynamics happening,

0:53:37.640 --> 0:53:40.560
<v Speaker 1>or immigration issues I should say, occurred right right now.

0:53:41.400 --> 0:53:42.799
<v Speaker 1>I want us to do with the border, which I'll

0:53:42.800 --> 0:53:46.160
<v Speaker 1>get into in a moment, and the reasonably I shouldn't

0:53:46.200 --> 0:53:49.840
<v Speaker 1>say the securing of the border, but the more effective

0:53:49.840 --> 0:53:52.520
<v Speaker 1>efforts at securing the border compared to where we were

0:53:53.680 --> 0:53:57.000
<v Speaker 1>some months ago. Well, first I want to talk about

0:53:57.080 --> 0:54:00.799
<v Speaker 1>DACA Deferred Action for childhood arrivals. This is going to

0:54:00.840 --> 0:54:04.480
<v Speaker 1>get heard by the Supreme Court, I believe tomorrow, and

0:54:04.520 --> 0:54:07.880
<v Speaker 1>there should be a decision made by the court sometime

0:54:07.920 --> 0:54:09.759
<v Speaker 1>in June of twenty twenty. So we're not going to

0:54:09.800 --> 0:54:12.160
<v Speaker 1>get a final ruling on this for a while. But

0:54:12.280 --> 0:54:16.239
<v Speaker 1>there are some very important issues at stake here, and

0:54:16.360 --> 0:54:18.080
<v Speaker 1>every news report you read about this is just going

0:54:18.160 --> 0:54:20.160
<v Speaker 1>to be kids who are great, who are aspiring for

0:54:20.200 --> 0:54:23.560
<v Speaker 1>the American dream, who they're all valedictorians, they all want

0:54:23.560 --> 0:54:25.239
<v Speaker 1>to serve the military. All they do is just be

0:54:25.280 --> 0:54:29.239
<v Speaker 1>amazing all the time. And big, bad, mean Republicans are

0:54:29.239 --> 0:54:32.680
<v Speaker 1>supporting the administration, which is saying that the DACA program

0:54:32.719 --> 0:54:37.840
<v Speaker 1>needs to end. There is before I get into DACA itself,

0:54:38.760 --> 0:54:40.600
<v Speaker 1>because this is what they're going to skip pass right away.

0:54:41.160 --> 0:54:44.160
<v Speaker 1>There's a rule of law issue that is very much

0:54:44.160 --> 0:54:47.720
<v Speaker 1>at stake here, and that is the really the prime issue,

0:54:47.760 --> 0:54:51.600
<v Speaker 1>the primary concern that I have about this, because the

0:54:52.200 --> 0:54:56.160
<v Speaker 1>Obama administration very explicitly, you will remember this, they said

0:54:56.200 --> 0:55:00.399
<v Speaker 1>that they wanted comprehensive immigration reform. President Obama re upon

0:55:00.600 --> 0:55:03.799
<v Speaker 1>his power and as the chief executive of the United

0:55:03.800 --> 0:55:07.440
<v Speaker 1>States government, he said, as an executive order to just

0:55:07.719 --> 0:55:12.160
<v Speaker 1>declare that there would no longer be enforcement of duly

0:55:12.200 --> 0:55:17.239
<v Speaker 1>pass congressionist congressional statutes about illegal act illegal presence in

0:55:17.320 --> 0:55:21.920
<v Speaker 1>America under immigration law. President Obama just said, look, Congress

0:55:22.000 --> 0:55:25.080
<v Speaker 1>isn't doing what I want Congress to do, So I'm

0:55:25.120 --> 0:55:27.520
<v Speaker 1>just going to do what I want to do. And

0:55:27.600 --> 0:55:31.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't care about that what message that sends. I

0:55:31.920 --> 0:55:37.000
<v Speaker 1>don't care about the rule of law and the effects

0:55:37.000 --> 0:55:38.359
<v Speaker 1>on the rule of law as a result of this.

0:55:39.680 --> 0:55:41.839
<v Speaker 1>So Obama just said, you know, we will do this

0:55:41.880 --> 0:55:45.920
<v Speaker 1>thing where you don't depoor dreamers. He made a decision

0:55:46.000 --> 0:55:48.520
<v Speaker 1>as commander in chief, as the president of the United

0:55:48.520 --> 0:55:54.320
<v Speaker 1>States at the time President Trump comes into office and says, Okay,

0:55:54.960 --> 0:55:58.600
<v Speaker 1>put aside for a moment. Put aside for a moment.

0:55:58.640 --> 0:56:04.279
<v Speaker 1>Whether you like the idea of DACA or not, the

0:56:04.320 --> 0:56:08.839
<v Speaker 1>Trump administration is arguing something very straightforward here, what are

0:56:09.080 --> 0:56:14.719
<v Speaker 1>what one president can do via executive authority can be well,

0:56:14.719 --> 0:56:19.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's one policy issue can be undone via

0:56:19.239 --> 0:56:23.840
<v Speaker 1>executive authority, especially because this the entirety of the DACA

0:56:24.560 --> 0:56:27.480
<v Speaker 1>argument as it was offered up at the time, was

0:56:27.520 --> 0:56:34.680
<v Speaker 1>that it was just a prosecutorial prioritization maneuver that also

0:56:34.719 --> 0:56:37.319
<v Speaker 1>allowed them to allow the people on aer DOCA buy

0:56:37.360 --> 0:56:39.520
<v Speaker 1>executive fiat. This was just conjured out of thin air.

0:56:39.760 --> 0:56:43.680
<v Speaker 1>To work, they register, they're allowed to work and a

0:56:43.680 --> 0:56:46.720
<v Speaker 1>lot of the United States, and they have to renew

0:56:47.040 --> 0:56:49.600
<v Speaker 1>their DOCTA protection. So it created this process where you

0:56:49.600 --> 0:56:51.200
<v Speaker 1>will to stand the country even though they're actually in

0:56:51.200 --> 0:56:57.080
<v Speaker 1>the country illegally. And the Trump administration came in and said, okay, well,

0:56:57.360 --> 0:56:59.160
<v Speaker 1>we don't want to do this because this is an

0:56:59.200 --> 0:57:03.640
<v Speaker 1>extra league or illegal program. This was not passed by Congress.

0:57:03.680 --> 0:57:06.200
<v Speaker 1>This is not the way it's supposed to be. And

0:57:06.520 --> 0:57:09.359
<v Speaker 1>at a minimum, you would think that the Trump administration

0:57:09.400 --> 0:57:12.600
<v Speaker 1>would have the same discretion to not prosecute. The Trump

0:57:12.640 --> 0:57:16.000
<v Speaker 1>administration would have the have that discretion and be in

0:57:16.040 --> 0:57:22.000
<v Speaker 1>a position to prosecute or in this sense remove the

0:57:22.040 --> 0:57:24.200
<v Speaker 1>prohibition on prosecution. That's all, by the way. I don't

0:57:24.200 --> 0:57:27.000
<v Speaker 1>think that people even if the DOCCA program ended, I

0:57:27.080 --> 0:57:30.960
<v Speaker 1>think that they'd be a very low prioritization for deportation anyway.

0:57:31.440 --> 0:57:34.000
<v Speaker 1>And I do think that this is why there's such

0:57:34.000 --> 0:57:35.960
<v Speaker 1>a focus on DOCA, that these are the people who

0:57:36.000 --> 0:57:40.360
<v Speaker 1>are the they have the most sympathetic cases for being

0:57:40.400 --> 0:57:43.760
<v Speaker 1>in the country illegally. But then there should also be

0:57:43.880 --> 0:57:45.760
<v Speaker 1>an understanding, well, if we're not going to just enforce

0:57:45.840 --> 0:57:50.480
<v Speaker 1>the law as is, there should be a quid pro quo.

0:57:50.680 --> 0:57:53.920
<v Speaker 1>Dare I say that DOCA if the Republicans were to

0:57:53.960 --> 0:57:56.560
<v Speaker 1>go along with DOCA for the Democrats, but if it

0:57:56.600 --> 0:58:00.280
<v Speaker 1>meant real, meaningful border security and reform of immigration laws,

0:58:00.840 --> 0:58:04.240
<v Speaker 1>that that's a bargaining chip that could be used instead.

0:58:04.280 --> 0:58:07.520
<v Speaker 1>What happened was at court no surprise. I'm sure it

0:58:07.520 --> 0:58:09.120
<v Speaker 1>was an Obama point deal though I don't know that,

0:58:09.160 --> 0:58:10.840
<v Speaker 1>but I'm guessing it was an Obama pointee with the

0:58:10.880 --> 0:58:15.960
<v Speaker 1>ruling said sorry, under the administrative Procedure Act. This is

0:58:16.120 --> 0:58:21.280
<v Speaker 1>arbitrary and capricious. Therefore, the president cannot undo what a

0:58:21.320 --> 0:58:26.200
<v Speaker 1>president before him did because the judge says so. Now,

0:58:26.320 --> 0:58:28.120
<v Speaker 1>there are some who would argue that that this isn't

0:58:28.120 --> 0:58:31.320
<v Speaker 1>even really in the purview of a federal judge to review.

0:58:32.520 --> 0:58:36.720
<v Speaker 1>That's one argument. Then there's also how is it possible that,

0:58:37.960 --> 0:58:40.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, can one president not end the war that

0:58:40.520 --> 0:58:44.400
<v Speaker 1>another president starts under the Administrative Procedure Act. I mean,

0:58:44.440 --> 0:58:48.640
<v Speaker 1>this is when you start to see a lawlessness from

0:58:48.680 --> 0:58:51.400
<v Speaker 1>these institutions that are supposed to be upholding the rule

0:58:51.440 --> 0:58:55.440
<v Speaker 1>of law. This is where you see an abandoning of

0:58:55.640 --> 0:59:02.160
<v Speaker 1>principle and of following legal text and its replacement with

0:59:02.200 --> 0:59:05.160
<v Speaker 1>the whims of people who happen to be on the judiciary.

0:59:06.360 --> 0:59:10.600
<v Speaker 1>It's absurd. Here you had the founder of scotus blog

0:59:11.680 --> 0:59:14.560
<v Speaker 1>tweeted this out. I thought this was great. Scotus blog

0:59:14.640 --> 0:59:16.360
<v Speaker 1>is a Supreme Court blog. All they do is cover

0:59:16.400 --> 0:59:19.840
<v Speaker 1>Supreme Court stuff. He wrote, this is an enormously important,

0:59:20.200 --> 0:59:25.240
<v Speaker 1>stupid case. Enormously important for the individuals involved in immigration policy,

0:59:25.800 --> 0:59:30.880
<v Speaker 1>but stupid because if Barack Obama can create the program real,

0:59:30.920 --> 0:59:36.520
<v Speaker 1>Donald Trump can withdraw it. Yeah, this is very straightforward.

0:59:36.600 --> 0:59:41.000
<v Speaker 1>This is not complicated stuff. What one president can decide

0:59:41.080 --> 0:59:44.840
<v Speaker 1>to do, another president can decide not to do if

0:59:44.880 --> 0:59:48.280
<v Speaker 1>it is within presidential discretion. Right, If one person is

0:59:48.280 --> 0:59:51.080
<v Speaker 1>allowed to walk into a store and say I want

0:59:51.080 --> 0:59:54.800
<v Speaker 1>to buy, you know, strawberry ice cream or chocolate ice cream,

0:59:54.840 --> 0:59:56.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna go at the you know, or vanilla, I'm

0:59:56.800 --> 0:59:59.040
<v Speaker 1>gonna go at strawberry, another person can walk into the

0:59:59.080 --> 1:00:01.760
<v Speaker 1>store if they have that same consumer discretion and say

1:00:01.920 --> 1:00:04.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna get the you know, the Rocky Road ice

1:00:04.520 --> 1:00:07.800
<v Speaker 1>cream or the strawberry or whatever it is. Right, you

1:00:07.840 --> 1:00:10.240
<v Speaker 1>have a problem if the same choice cannot be made

1:00:10.240 --> 1:00:12.480
<v Speaker 1>by the same people in the same given the same

1:00:12.520 --> 1:00:17.040
<v Speaker 1>authority under the law. So what's the answer here? Like, oh,

1:00:17.080 --> 1:00:22.200
<v Speaker 1>hashtag resistance. Judge doesn't like it. Taking away DOCTA status

1:00:22.280 --> 1:00:26.320
<v Speaker 1>is mean administrative procedure Act. You've got to be kidding me.

1:00:27.320 --> 1:00:30.200
<v Speaker 1>But what that means is that this is just because

1:00:30.520 --> 1:00:32.760
<v Speaker 1>this is because I say so in legal ease from

1:00:32.760 --> 1:00:35.680
<v Speaker 1>a judge. Why can't you do this? Yeah, violation the

1:00:35.680 --> 1:00:39.360
<v Speaker 1>administrant because there's not enough notice here under come on,

1:00:40.520 --> 1:00:45.040
<v Speaker 1>this is entirely nonsensical stuff, but there are very major

1:00:45.120 --> 1:00:48.960
<v Speaker 1>there are major implications here, major implications for rule of law.

1:00:49.000 --> 1:00:52.240
<v Speaker 1>And it's also just a reminder of the length the

1:00:52.320 --> 1:00:54.520
<v Speaker 1>judiciary has been willing to go to in order to

1:00:54.560 --> 1:00:57.280
<v Speaker 1>undermine President Trump and in the process, undermine the very

1:00:57.320 --> 1:01:04.640
<v Speaker 1>federal judiciary itself. The lengths have been extreme. And then

1:01:04.680 --> 1:01:08.120
<v Speaker 1>you have just the border overall. Right now, you have

1:01:10.240 --> 1:01:17.880
<v Speaker 1>a seventy five percent decrease in illegal border crossings since May,

1:01:18.680 --> 1:01:22.760
<v Speaker 1>and this is attributable to Trump administration policies. The Trump

1:01:22.760 --> 1:01:28.200
<v Speaker 1>administration has taken some important steps that have been very

1:01:28.280 --> 1:01:33.840
<v Speaker 1>helpful in trying to stop this situation from continuing on.

1:01:34.560 --> 1:01:36.160
<v Speaker 1>You had one hundred and thirty just just to give

1:01:36.200 --> 1:01:37.800
<v Speaker 1>you some numbers of what's going on the border, one

1:01:37.880 --> 1:01:41.600
<v Speaker 1>hundred and thirty two thousand arrests at our southern border

1:01:41.600 --> 1:01:46.120
<v Speaker 1>back in May. Those are illegal crossings. People caught. Thirty

1:01:46.120 --> 1:01:49.440
<v Speaker 1>two thousand are caught. How many got a cross about that?

1:01:50.400 --> 1:01:54.520
<v Speaker 1>And then also it's down to thirty six thousand in October.

1:01:55.520 --> 1:01:58.720
<v Speaker 1>What are some of the moves. Let's take a little

1:01:58.920 --> 1:02:02.400
<v Speaker 1>stock here. Because I was ry much involved in trying

1:02:02.400 --> 1:02:04.040
<v Speaker 1>to publicize what was going on at the border. I

1:02:04.040 --> 1:02:07.280
<v Speaker 1>spend time at a couple of border sectors with border patrol,

1:02:07.440 --> 1:02:09.160
<v Speaker 1>trying to get the word out, a lot of appearances

1:02:09.160 --> 1:02:12.480
<v Speaker 1>on Tucker carl Carlston's show, wrote a couple of articles

1:02:12.480 --> 1:02:14.080
<v Speaker 1>in The Hill dot com. One of them actually got

1:02:14.080 --> 1:02:16.760
<v Speaker 1>shared by the official Trump and White House Twitter accounts

1:02:16.800 --> 1:02:20.280
<v Speaker 1>about the scams going on at our southern border with

1:02:20.400 --> 1:02:23.400
<v Speaker 1>the immigration So what has changed? What has been the

1:02:23.800 --> 1:02:29.360
<v Speaker 1>shift here? We have a few things. One, Mexico, at

1:02:29.440 --> 1:02:32.800
<v Speaker 1>the behest of the Trump administration, has decided to step

1:02:32.920 --> 1:02:36.720
<v Speaker 1>up immigration enforcement. So the Mexican government, with pressure from

1:02:36.720 --> 1:02:40.400
<v Speaker 1>the Trump administration, has said that there has actually put

1:02:40.440 --> 1:02:43.920
<v Speaker 1>more of its own national Guard troops at its border

1:02:44.000 --> 1:02:50.840
<v Speaker 1>with Central American countries and then stopped the inflow into Mexico,

1:02:51.200 --> 1:02:53.920
<v Speaker 1>which is obviously very helpful because the inflow of Mexico

1:02:53.960 --> 1:02:57.800
<v Speaker 1>becomes the inflow of the United States. Mexico is also

1:02:59.000 --> 1:03:04.520
<v Speaker 1>agreed to have fifty five thousand migrants remain in Mexico.

1:03:05.840 --> 1:03:09.440
<v Speaker 1>And guess what turns out that people who are told

1:03:09.600 --> 1:03:11.520
<v Speaker 1>you can apply for ASSY in the United States, but

1:03:11.520 --> 1:03:13.360
<v Speaker 1>you have to wait in Mexico while you do it,

1:03:13.440 --> 1:03:14.560
<v Speaker 1>some of that are going all the way back to

1:03:14.560 --> 1:03:18.400
<v Speaker 1>Central America. Now, there are two ways that this will

1:03:18.400 --> 1:03:22.840
<v Speaker 1>be described the media. Well, first of all, this and

1:03:22.880 --> 1:03:26.200
<v Speaker 1>that program is facing legal challenges. So you have all

1:03:26.200 --> 1:03:29.080
<v Speaker 1>the different open borders advocates, the Democrat Party of course

1:03:29.160 --> 1:03:31.840
<v Speaker 1>leading the charge, all these different open borders advocates who

1:03:31.880 --> 1:03:34.440
<v Speaker 1>are saying, oh, no, you can't work out. The United

1:03:34.480 --> 1:03:36.440
<v Speaker 1>States does not have the sovereign right to work out

1:03:36.440 --> 1:03:39.280
<v Speaker 1>in agreement with Mexico where they keep asylum seekers in

1:03:39.560 --> 1:03:43.000
<v Speaker 1>Mexico waiting for their day in court in the United States.

1:03:43.920 --> 1:03:45.760
<v Speaker 1>They want to fight that because we all understand what

1:03:45.800 --> 1:03:48.040
<v Speaker 1>the incentive is here, the incentive all along will show

1:03:48.080 --> 1:03:51.480
<v Speaker 1>up at the southern border, claim that you're fleeing gang violence,

1:03:52.320 --> 1:03:54.560
<v Speaker 1>read practically from a script about what you have to

1:03:54.560 --> 1:03:56.160
<v Speaker 1>say to get into the country, to pass that first

1:03:56.160 --> 1:03:58.920
<v Speaker 1>credible fear test. And then once in the United States,

1:03:59.160 --> 1:04:02.600
<v Speaker 1>you're good. Yeah, you're home free. Don't worry about it.

1:04:03.000 --> 1:04:04.760
<v Speaker 1>You're out of custody. They're never They're not gonna find

1:04:04.760 --> 1:04:06.800
<v Speaker 1>you again. You're not going to show up for your hearing.

1:04:06.840 --> 1:04:08.120
<v Speaker 1>If you do show up, you gotta show up a

1:04:08.160 --> 1:04:10.760
<v Speaker 1>few times before they can even take any action against you.

1:04:10.760 --> 1:04:14.200
<v Speaker 1>You can fight against your actual extradition even when you

1:04:14.280 --> 1:04:17.240
<v Speaker 1>lose your asylum appeal. I mean, it's impossible. You're gonna

1:04:17.280 --> 1:04:19.360
<v Speaker 1>be good. It's all you gotta do is get into

1:04:19.400 --> 1:04:21.200
<v Speaker 1>the country and get out of attention, and you're good

1:04:21.200 --> 1:04:24.280
<v Speaker 1>to go. And that was the whole game. Turns out,

1:04:24.320 --> 1:04:26.560
<v Speaker 1>when people are told, hey, guess what you gotta wait

1:04:26.560 --> 1:04:30.840
<v Speaker 1>in Mexico, they go, oh, the scam isn't gonna work anymore.

1:04:31.000 --> 1:04:34.040
<v Speaker 1>Got to go back to Central America. Better to go

1:04:34.120 --> 1:04:36.959
<v Speaker 1>back to the country that they, many of whom would

1:04:36.960 --> 1:04:40.200
<v Speaker 1>claim was a threat to their very lives, than to

1:04:40.280 --> 1:04:44.400
<v Speaker 1>just wait a few months maybe in Mexico for their asylum.

1:04:44.440 --> 1:04:47.840
<v Speaker 1>Hearing that seems to be a strange choice, although it's

1:04:47.840 --> 1:04:51.880
<v Speaker 1>not a strange choice if you aren't really fleeing gang violence.

1:04:51.880 --> 1:04:54.640
<v Speaker 1>You're just an economic migrant and you were trying to

1:04:54.680 --> 1:04:56.720
<v Speaker 1>find a way to game the system to get into America,

1:04:56.760 --> 1:04:59.440
<v Speaker 1>which is what a vast majority of these Central American

1:04:59.480 --> 1:05:02.360
<v Speaker 1>migrants would doing, as told to me by border patrol,

1:05:02.760 --> 1:05:06.080
<v Speaker 1>and as I was able to find when we would

1:05:06.080 --> 1:05:09.040
<v Speaker 1>hear the in some cases the actual arrests going on

1:05:09.160 --> 1:05:12.240
<v Speaker 1>of these Central American migrants when they're telling the stories

1:05:12.240 --> 1:05:15.360
<v Speaker 1>two border patrol when I was there, So that's another thing.

1:05:16.080 --> 1:05:19.680
<v Speaker 1>And then They have instituted a policy where if you

1:05:20.760 --> 1:05:24.360
<v Speaker 1>pass through Mexico and don't first try to get asylum

1:05:24.440 --> 1:05:27.760
<v Speaker 1>in Mexico if you're from Central America, then you cannot

1:05:27.760 --> 1:05:30.240
<v Speaker 1>claim a sign the United States. Essentially, you cannot go

1:05:30.440 --> 1:05:34.760
<v Speaker 1>jurisdiction shopping or nation state shopping as an assy lee

1:05:35.480 --> 1:05:38.560
<v Speaker 1>if you're really claiming asylum, if you're under mortal threat,

1:05:39.280 --> 1:05:44.320
<v Speaker 1>if you're oppressed and fleeing tyranny, the first country that

1:05:44.480 --> 1:05:46.640
<v Speaker 1>isn't going to tyrannize and threaten you is the one

1:05:46.680 --> 1:05:48.240
<v Speaker 1>that you should be asking for asylum, and you don't.

1:05:48.240 --> 1:05:49.560
<v Speaker 1>You don't get to say, well, I just wanted to

1:05:49.600 --> 1:05:52.480
<v Speaker 1>I want the best, richest, biggest welfare benefit country in

1:05:52.480 --> 1:05:54.760
<v Speaker 1>the Western hemisphere. You're not allowed to do that anymore

1:05:54.800 --> 1:05:58.439
<v Speaker 1>to the Trump administration. Of course, the Libs are very

1:05:58.560 --> 1:06:03.560
<v Speaker 1>upset about about that. And then one other thing here

1:06:04.720 --> 1:06:06.320
<v Speaker 1>not getting a lot of attention. I remember there's some

1:06:06.720 --> 1:06:08.920
<v Speaker 1>so called, well, I don't know, conservatives, some of them

1:06:08.960 --> 1:06:12.160
<v Speaker 1>are never Trumpers. We're very upset about the declaration of

1:06:12.160 --> 1:06:15.680
<v Speaker 1>a state of emergency that Trump made. Who are all

1:06:15.720 --> 1:06:17.480
<v Speaker 1>of our civil rights being trampled on because of the

1:06:17.480 --> 1:06:21.960
<v Speaker 1>Trump declaration of emergency? Well, it turns out that by

1:06:22.000 --> 1:06:24.360
<v Speaker 1>the end of twenty twenty, the Trump administration is hoping

1:06:24.400 --> 1:06:27.680
<v Speaker 1>to have constructed four hundred and fifty miles because of

1:06:27.680 --> 1:06:30.600
<v Speaker 1>the declaration of emergency and the moving of funds within

1:06:30.640 --> 1:06:36.000
<v Speaker 1>the federal budget to the border construction border wall construction,

1:06:36.160 --> 1:06:37.960
<v Speaker 1>they're hoping to have four hundred and fifty miles of

1:06:38.000 --> 1:06:41.080
<v Speaker 1>border wall by the end of twenty twenty. If Trump

1:06:41.080 --> 1:06:43.320
<v Speaker 1>gets close to five hundred miles of new wall, not

1:06:43.400 --> 1:06:47.080
<v Speaker 1>just upgraded fence, new fence, new wall, whatever we're calling it,

1:06:49.200 --> 1:06:51.600
<v Speaker 1>those build a wall chants are going to be very

1:06:51.840 --> 1:06:55.000
<v Speaker 1>loud going into what I think will be his reelection.

1:06:55.880 --> 1:06:59.320
<v Speaker 1>People said he would never do it, never happened, can't happen. Well,

1:06:59.360 --> 1:07:01.240
<v Speaker 1>if they really are are on track, if this is correct,

1:07:01.320 --> 1:07:02.960
<v Speaker 1>this is reporting the Wall Street Journal to put up

1:07:03.000 --> 1:07:05.080
<v Speaker 1>four hundred and fifty miles a wall by the end

1:07:05.080 --> 1:07:07.680
<v Speaker 1>of this year, by the end of next year, I

1:07:07.720 --> 1:07:09.480
<v Speaker 1>think you'd have to consider that a promise kept, or

1:07:09.520 --> 1:07:11.520
<v Speaker 1>at least close to it. Promise kept it, promise in

1:07:11.600 --> 1:07:15.840
<v Speaker 1>progress on something that critics of the Trump administration we're

1:07:15.840 --> 1:07:18.520
<v Speaker 1>saying along absolutely impossible. There's no way that he'll be

1:07:18.560 --> 1:07:21.680
<v Speaker 1>able to pull that off, so we will continue to

1:07:21.720 --> 1:07:24.720
<v Speaker 1>watch the border and the administration's response to it. I'm

1:07:24.760 --> 1:07:28.360
<v Speaker 1>worried that we're running out of time. Every time the

1:07:28.480 --> 1:07:35.160
<v Speaker 1>scientists reanalyze the data, it's worse than they thought. So

1:07:35.400 --> 1:07:39.600
<v Speaker 1>when they thought we had this much time to do something,

1:07:39.840 --> 1:07:42.280
<v Speaker 1>it turns out when they reanalyze the data, it's this

1:07:42.440 --> 1:07:46.640
<v Speaker 1>much time, and that it's this much time. We've got

1:07:46.640 --> 1:07:51.040
<v Speaker 1>to be moving on every front. This is our only planet,

1:07:51.840 --> 1:07:58.320
<v Speaker 1>and I think of the responsibility that we have to

1:07:58.520 --> 1:08:02.960
<v Speaker 1>future generations. We didn't We didn't inherit this earth from

1:08:02.960 --> 1:08:07.720
<v Speaker 1>our grandparents. We're borrowing it from our grandchildren, and we

1:08:07.840 --> 1:08:13.480
<v Speaker 1>have a responsibility to believe them the earth that is sustainable,

1:08:13.760 --> 1:08:17.519
<v Speaker 1>an earth that will support life. And I don't know

1:08:17.560 --> 1:08:24.759
<v Speaker 1>about you, but I refuse and reject and absolutely will

1:08:24.880 --> 1:08:33.200
<v Speaker 1>not accept the choice of the choice. Sorry, I refuse

1:08:33.320 --> 1:08:38.080
<v Speaker 1>to accept the choice of leaving a planet that is

1:08:38.160 --> 1:08:46.519
<v Speaker 1>diminished and dying to the next generation. I refuse to

1:08:46.600 --> 1:08:51.280
<v Speaker 1>choose that. And because we refuse to choose that, then

1:08:51.320 --> 1:08:54.080
<v Speaker 1>we what we have no choice to do is to

1:08:54.120 --> 1:08:58.320
<v Speaker 1>act to do exactly what they say. What Warren says,

1:08:58.320 --> 1:09:00.920
<v Speaker 1>what AOC says, that's your There's no choice here. You

1:09:01.000 --> 1:09:03.040
<v Speaker 1>must do what they say because the planet is at stake.

1:09:03.560 --> 1:09:07.000
<v Speaker 1>These people are nuts, folks. This is crazy. This is crazy.

1:09:07.120 --> 1:09:09.720
<v Speaker 1>What's amazing is when you speak to people who think

1:09:09.720 --> 1:09:13.920
<v Speaker 1>they're very sophisticated, very very educated, wealthy area died across

1:09:13.960 --> 1:09:16.439
<v Speaker 1>the country and the liberal enclaves, they look at you

1:09:16.479 --> 1:09:18.920
<v Speaker 1>like your nuts if you don't think the world is

1:09:18.920 --> 1:09:22.080
<v Speaker 1>going to end in ten years unless we listen to

1:09:23.479 --> 1:09:26.519
<v Speaker 1>complete and income poops in the Democratic Party who don't

1:09:26.520 --> 1:09:29.800
<v Speaker 1>know a thing about a thing, and let them run

1:09:29.840 --> 1:09:33.360
<v Speaker 1>the entire economy and let them transform the global economy

1:09:33.600 --> 1:09:38.720
<v Speaker 1>without our basic understanding of how economics works. And just

1:09:40.000 --> 1:09:42.559
<v Speaker 1>how much crazy er can it get? How much more

1:09:43.200 --> 1:09:46.960
<v Speaker 1>bonkers can the Democratic Party be before there is some

1:09:47.080 --> 1:09:50.639
<v Speaker 1>kind of reckoning, some kind of awakening about what is

1:09:51.160 --> 1:09:54.799
<v Speaker 1>really going on? How to take down a charter school.

1:09:55.960 --> 1:09:59.680
<v Speaker 1>This is a story that I find, I find and

1:09:59.720 --> 1:10:04.400
<v Speaker 1>if you reating fascinating and well worth it. For those

1:10:04.439 --> 1:10:07.080
<v Speaker 1>of you that want to, we'll put the story up.

1:10:07.320 --> 1:10:11.120
<v Speaker 1>It's from the Atlantic dot Com. John McCord is the

1:10:11.200 --> 1:10:14.360
<v Speaker 1>author of the piece, and it tells a story, a

1:10:14.400 --> 1:10:17.439
<v Speaker 1>story that people should know because it deals very much

1:10:17.439 --> 1:10:26.320
<v Speaker 1>with social justice rhetoric. And wokeness and whiteness and all

1:10:26.360 --> 1:10:33.680
<v Speaker 1>these different concepts that are constantly being used and leveraged

1:10:34.040 --> 1:10:36.559
<v Speaker 1>and alleged on the left, depending on what we're talking about.

1:10:38.479 --> 1:10:45.760
<v Speaker 1>There's a charter school in Brooklyn called Ascend. In fact,

1:10:45.800 --> 1:10:47.840
<v Speaker 1>it's now a network of fifteen schools, but it was

1:10:47.880 --> 1:10:51.600
<v Speaker 1>founded ten years ago by a man named Stephen Wilson.

1:10:52.479 --> 1:10:58.320
<v Speaker 1>And Stephen Wilson who you would think would be celebrated

1:10:59.000 --> 1:11:01.519
<v Speaker 1>by the left because as he founded a charter school

1:11:01.560 --> 1:11:05.439
<v Speaker 1>that has done what so many public schools across the

1:11:05.479 --> 1:11:07.559
<v Speaker 1>country cannot figure out how to do, which is to

1:11:07.680 --> 1:11:15.400
<v Speaker 1>take young, predominantly minority, Black and Latino children who are

1:11:15.439 --> 1:11:20.920
<v Speaker 1>from underprivileged backgrounds and make them exceptional students doing well,

1:11:21.200 --> 1:11:24.960
<v Speaker 1>getting good grades, beating the national or the estate average

1:11:24.960 --> 1:11:29.760
<v Speaker 1>on the test scores success like Success Academy here in

1:11:29.760 --> 1:11:32.120
<v Speaker 1>New York another place that's been made controversial because the

1:11:32.240 --> 1:11:35.559
<v Speaker 1>left really doesn't like success that goes outside the public

1:11:35.600 --> 1:11:37.680
<v Speaker 1>school model, because public school is actually a form of

1:11:37.720 --> 1:11:42.240
<v Speaker 1>socialism and central planning runs it and it is it

1:11:42.320 --> 1:11:45.760
<v Speaker 1>is a mediocrity factory and a jobs program. I mean,

1:11:45.800 --> 1:11:47.920
<v Speaker 1>that's what the national level public school system is. And

1:11:47.960 --> 1:11:51.280
<v Speaker 1>to call it a mediocrity factory might be generous, probably

1:11:51.360 --> 1:11:55.320
<v Speaker 1>is very generous. Actually, a charter schools sometimes do what

1:11:55.320 --> 1:11:56.800
<v Speaker 1>we're told is so hard to do, which is to

1:11:57.400 --> 1:12:02.559
<v Speaker 1>find a way to inspire and promote learning among underprivileged

1:12:02.600 --> 1:12:07.200
<v Speaker 1>minority children. You would think the left, which talks all

1:12:07.200 --> 1:12:10.960
<v Speaker 1>the time about diversity and inclusion and equity and multiculturalism,

1:12:11.160 --> 1:12:13.280
<v Speaker 1>You would think the left would say, oh my gosh,

1:12:13.280 --> 1:12:16.880
<v Speaker 1>this is great. How do we how can we do this,

1:12:17.720 --> 1:12:22.640
<v Speaker 1>how can we find a way to replicate this success?

1:12:22.720 --> 1:12:26.760
<v Speaker 1>But no, they want to shut it down. They want

1:12:26.760 --> 1:12:29.000
<v Speaker 1>to shut down these charter schools when they can. They

1:12:29.080 --> 1:12:32.080
<v Speaker 1>want to make sure that people don't believe that these

1:12:32.200 --> 1:12:35.760
<v Speaker 1>different philosophies when it comes education, are more effective than

1:12:35.800 --> 1:12:41.360
<v Speaker 1>the one size fits all approach of the bland intellectual

1:12:41.520 --> 1:12:44.200
<v Speaker 1>gruel that has served up to our children courtesy of

1:12:44.200 --> 1:12:50.840
<v Speaker 1>the Department of Education across the country. But this innovative educator,

1:12:50.920 --> 1:12:56.320
<v Speaker 1>Steven Wilson put up a blog post that I have read.

1:12:56.439 --> 1:12:59.599
<v Speaker 1>I have read the piece by John McCarter. The blog

1:12:59.640 --> 1:13:02.320
<v Speaker 1>post from this past summer written by Steve Wilson. They

1:13:02.479 --> 1:13:05.680
<v Speaker 1>found Stephen Wilson, the founder of Ascend Charter School, and

1:13:05.720 --> 1:13:11.759
<v Speaker 1>then also the change dot org petition from friends of Ascend,

1:13:11.880 --> 1:13:14.400
<v Speaker 1>they say, asking for this guy to get in trouble.

1:13:14.479 --> 1:13:18.120
<v Speaker 1>By the way, he has been fired or removed from

1:13:18.200 --> 1:13:22.320
<v Speaker 1>his position by the board of the very charter school

1:13:22.360 --> 1:13:24.960
<v Speaker 1>system that he founded that was so successful for so

1:13:25.000 --> 1:13:29.639
<v Speaker 1>many young, underprivileged minority children. He's been kicked out. Why

1:13:29.640 --> 1:13:32.280
<v Speaker 1>has he been kicked out? Because he wrote a blog piece,

1:13:32.840 --> 1:13:38.240
<v Speaker 1>the Promise of Intellectual Joy, that is really worth reading,

1:13:38.280 --> 1:13:40.519
<v Speaker 1>by the way, I mean, it's only about eight pages long,

1:13:41.360 --> 1:13:48.280
<v Speaker 1>and I was impressed impressed with his willingness to look

1:13:48.280 --> 1:13:52.759
<v Speaker 1>at some of the educational missteps in this country's past,

1:13:53.360 --> 1:13:57.720
<v Speaker 1>and how there has been for now over a hundred years,

1:13:57.840 --> 1:13:59.960
<v Speaker 1>a debate that has been raging back and forth where

1:14:00.160 --> 1:14:04.519
<v Speaker 1>people in the educational establishment. Now I'm not really talking

1:14:04.560 --> 1:14:08.439
<v Speaker 1>about university level, really talking about grammar school and high school,

1:14:09.439 --> 1:14:13.400
<v Speaker 1>but there have been these moments in time when or

1:14:13.560 --> 1:14:17.559
<v Speaker 1>periods of time when the educational establishment was saying, oh,

1:14:17.680 --> 1:14:22.120
<v Speaker 1>let's not we don't need a liberal education. We don't

1:14:22.200 --> 1:14:25.960
<v Speaker 1>need an education that tries to inspire the mind, promotes

1:14:26.040 --> 1:14:28.960
<v Speaker 1>a joy and love of learning. Let's just teach people

1:14:29.520 --> 1:14:33.280
<v Speaker 1>how to keep themselves clean. You know, how to do

1:14:33.400 --> 1:14:36.400
<v Speaker 1>the basics of living day to day, of you know,

1:14:36.560 --> 1:14:40.720
<v Speaker 1>computational arithmetic for buying things in the store. Let's teach

1:14:40.760 --> 1:14:44.760
<v Speaker 1>them these these basic life skills essentially at the expense

1:14:44.920 --> 1:14:49.000
<v Speaker 1>of teaching them about the life of the mind. And

1:14:49.120 --> 1:14:52.240
<v Speaker 1>that these movements have popped up at different times, and

1:14:52.320 --> 1:14:54.639
<v Speaker 1>it popped up, for example, in the early twentieth century.

1:14:54.640 --> 1:14:57.000
<v Speaker 1>This is all this promise of intellectual joy piece written

1:14:57.000 --> 1:15:02.120
<v Speaker 1>by this esteemed educator that when there was a big

1:15:02.160 --> 1:15:04.720
<v Speaker 1>surge of immigrants into the country, for example, that the

1:15:04.880 --> 1:15:10.800
<v Speaker 1>educational establishment public schools in this country, was pushing for

1:15:11.320 --> 1:15:15.800
<v Speaker 1>effectively dumbing down the teaching so that you're not learning

1:15:16.080 --> 1:15:18.080
<v Speaker 1>the life of the mind, you're not learning about the

1:15:18.080 --> 1:15:21.160
<v Speaker 1>promise of intellectual joy and trying to give that to

1:15:21.280 --> 1:15:23.280
<v Speaker 1>everyone as a gift for the rest of their lives.

1:15:23.479 --> 1:15:27.639
<v Speaker 1>You're teaching them how to be cogs in this state machine,

1:15:28.200 --> 1:15:30.240
<v Speaker 1>how to you know, be able to more or less

1:15:30.280 --> 1:15:32.479
<v Speaker 1>function day to day in a way that they're not

1:15:32.520 --> 1:15:36.240
<v Speaker 1>too much of a drain on the state. A tremendously

1:15:36.439 --> 1:15:41.640
<v Speaker 1>condescending approach to education. Now, Stephen Wilson is taking the

1:15:41.640 --> 1:15:46.439
<v Speaker 1>approach that this is wrong, that this should not be done,

1:15:48.200 --> 1:15:54.040
<v Speaker 1>and here's some of how John mcquarter describes this this debate,

1:15:54.880 --> 1:15:59.200
<v Speaker 1>Wilson's decries how the pushback against traditional education with its

1:15:59.240 --> 1:16:02.800
<v Speaker 1>rote learning and Ltrinell range of perspective, has often entailed

1:16:02.800 --> 1:16:05.960
<v Speaker 1>the pendulum swing too far in the other direction, toward

1:16:06.040 --> 1:16:10.200
<v Speaker 1>a gauzy student focused approach that de emphasizes the authority

1:16:10.200 --> 1:16:14.240
<v Speaker 1>of the teacher, or most disturbing disturbingly, the learning of facts.

1:16:15.439 --> 1:16:18.799
<v Speaker 1>Wilson's problem is with people such as Rousseau and John Dewey,

1:16:18.880 --> 1:16:22.719
<v Speaker 1>and even Dwight D. Eisenhower, who espoused what Wilson considers

1:16:22.760 --> 1:16:26.840
<v Speaker 1>anti intellectual ideas about how and what children should learn.

1:16:28.040 --> 1:16:31.280
<v Speaker 1>Wilson observed in his blog post, this is where he

1:16:31.320 --> 1:16:34.040
<v Speaker 1>gets into trouble, folks. This is where they come after him.

1:16:34.400 --> 1:16:38.280
<v Speaker 1>Wilson observed in his blog post that liberal education is

1:16:38.400 --> 1:16:44.719
<v Speaker 1>under fresh attack, this time as whiteness. The petition states

1:16:45.360 --> 1:16:49.080
<v Speaker 1>this claim equates a liberal education with whiteness, the very

1:16:49.120 --> 1:16:53.200
<v Speaker 1>opposite of Wilson's argument. The underlying message here, say the

1:16:53.200 --> 1:16:57.400
<v Speaker 1>petition writers, is that a liberal education is whiteness. Whiteness

1:16:57.520 --> 1:17:00.960
<v Speaker 1>is therefore intellectual, and any challenged to a liberal education

1:17:01.080 --> 1:17:04.080
<v Speaker 1>is a challenge to whiteness. So any challenge to whiteness

1:17:04.200 --> 1:17:09.720
<v Speaker 1>is anti intellectual. Even following the rather tortuous logic here,

1:17:10.200 --> 1:17:13.960
<v Speaker 1>Wilson gives no indication of thinking that all challenges to

1:17:14.080 --> 1:17:22.160
<v Speaker 1>something as vast as white hegemony qualify as anti intellectualism. Elsewhere,

1:17:22.200 --> 1:17:26.720
<v Speaker 1>Wilson criticizes the idea that focus on a text is

1:17:26.760 --> 1:17:31.000
<v Speaker 1>a kind of white supremacy. That's right, my friends, focusing

1:17:31.000 --> 1:17:33.000
<v Speaker 1>on the words in a text when you're teaching literature

1:17:33.200 --> 1:17:36.800
<v Speaker 1>or English language that is decried in some places in

1:17:36.800 --> 1:17:42.439
<v Speaker 1>the educational system now as white supremacy. The words focus

1:17:42.520 --> 1:17:46.639
<v Speaker 1>on the words, that's white supremacy, oh says who says

1:17:46.640 --> 1:17:49.559
<v Speaker 1>people in the educational establishment. Quote. That may sound bizarre,

1:17:50.080 --> 1:17:53.040
<v Speaker 1>but at a conference about white supremacy, culture and education

1:17:53.520 --> 1:17:57.120
<v Speaker 1>convened by the New York City Schools Chancellor Richard Carranza,

1:17:57.840 --> 1:18:02.439
<v Speaker 1>attendees were shown a slow explained that white supremacist thinking

1:18:02.479 --> 1:18:10.320
<v Speaker 1>includes quote, worship of the written word and even objectivity

1:18:10.560 --> 1:18:16.080
<v Speaker 1>end quote. Educational conference at the highest level here in

1:18:16.080 --> 1:18:19.040
<v Speaker 1>the public school system in New York City that is

1:18:19.240 --> 1:18:23.320
<v Speaker 1>making the claim and instructing other educators to propagate this

1:18:23.400 --> 1:18:32.760
<v Speaker 1>claim that objectivity and the written word itself can be

1:18:32.800 --> 1:18:39.599
<v Speaker 1>a form of white supremacy. And if you're wondering what

1:18:39.640 --> 1:18:45.320
<v Speaker 1>the heck is going on, you are not alone. But

1:18:45.680 --> 1:18:48.439
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't matter what he says. It doesn't matter what

1:18:48.520 --> 1:18:52.519
<v Speaker 1>he really wrote. The petition quotes Wilson's concern and then

1:18:52.520 --> 1:18:57.200
<v Speaker 1>with no argumentation whatsoever, flags him as protecting white supremacy

1:18:57.240 --> 1:19:01.479
<v Speaker 1>culture and a paternalistic orientation toward the work of social

1:19:01.520 --> 1:19:05.160
<v Speaker 1>justice reform. Now, my friends, here's the real here's the

1:19:05.200 --> 1:19:08.160
<v Speaker 1>real problem. Here's why this guy Wilson had to lose

1:19:08.160 --> 1:19:11.800
<v Speaker 1>his job after doing more for minority children in New

1:19:11.880 --> 1:19:15.600
<v Speaker 1>York City than any of these social justice activists on

1:19:15.640 --> 1:19:19.800
<v Speaker 1>the change dot org petition. The problem is that he

1:19:19.920 --> 1:19:22.920
<v Speaker 1>pointed out that there is a movement underway right now,

1:19:23.520 --> 1:19:26.120
<v Speaker 1>as there has been at different times in the past,

1:19:26.960 --> 1:19:31.680
<v Speaker 1>to teach differently to minority children, to teach in a

1:19:31.720 --> 1:19:36.120
<v Speaker 1>way that is more culturally sensitive and culturally inclusive. And

1:19:36.160 --> 1:19:40.839
<v Speaker 1>so that means making choices, making distinctions that go away

1:19:41.040 --> 1:19:45.280
<v Speaker 1>from trying to inspire everybody with the same ideas and

1:19:45.439 --> 1:19:50.559
<v Speaker 1>ideals and great literature and great learning, and teaching differently

1:19:50.600 --> 1:19:55.320
<v Speaker 1>to minority children in order to give them something that

1:19:55.360 --> 1:19:59.519
<v Speaker 1>they will be more act to take to and to

1:19:59.640 --> 1:20:03.479
<v Speaker 1>handle well in the classroom. Now they think the social

1:20:03.520 --> 1:20:06.200
<v Speaker 1>justice left thinks that doing this, teaching differently to minority

1:20:06.280 --> 1:20:09.960
<v Speaker 1>children in the public school is something that should be

1:20:10.240 --> 1:20:13.840
<v Speaker 1>promoted and celebrated. And that's why they're also attacking a

1:20:13.920 --> 1:20:18.120
<v Speaker 1>culture of objectivity and words on the page meaning what

1:20:18.160 --> 1:20:20.920
<v Speaker 1>they mean as a form of whiteness. And this is

1:20:20.960 --> 1:20:22.800
<v Speaker 1>all it's I mean, I have the documents in front

1:20:22.840 --> 1:20:25.920
<v Speaker 1>of me, this is all in the petition, and that

1:20:26.040 --> 1:20:31.639
<v Speaker 1>this is white, toxic patriarchal masculinity in the classroom. Right.

1:20:31.960 --> 1:20:36.200
<v Speaker 1>You know, learn read poems from the great poets and

1:20:36.280 --> 1:20:39.360
<v Speaker 1>read what they say, not reinterpreted, and write your own

1:20:39.400 --> 1:20:42.320
<v Speaker 1>poem that has the same title, but you know, is

1:20:42.400 --> 1:20:45.960
<v Speaker 1>more culturally in line with what you wish the poem said.

1:20:46.080 --> 1:20:51.280
<v Speaker 1>You know, that's anathemaa that's no longer acceptable. And there

1:20:51.280 --> 1:20:54.400
<v Speaker 1>have been other times in history when in the public

1:20:54.400 --> 1:20:59.160
<v Speaker 1>school system in this country people have argued that certain groups, immigrants,

1:20:59.200 --> 1:21:04.920
<v Speaker 1>the poor, minorities, should be taught differently. And the promise

1:21:04.960 --> 1:21:08.559
<v Speaker 1>of intellectual joy that Wilson is trying to advocate for

1:21:08.840 --> 1:21:15.320
<v Speaker 1>is that all people, all children, have the same intellectual inheritance,

1:21:15.760 --> 1:21:19.160
<v Speaker 1>which is that we should all be striving for greater

1:21:19.240 --> 1:21:23.200
<v Speaker 1>knowledge and understanding. The roots of a liberal education are

1:21:23.240 --> 1:21:25.880
<v Speaker 1>to give you a joy of learning and understanding and

1:21:25.960 --> 1:21:28.640
<v Speaker 1>the process of wrestling with thoughts and coming to conclusions,

1:21:28.640 --> 1:21:31.880
<v Speaker 1>and understanding reason and understanding logic and thinking about your

1:21:31.880 --> 1:21:35.479
<v Speaker 1>place in the world. That is everybody's inheritance, irrespective of

1:21:35.479 --> 1:21:39.280
<v Speaker 1>skin color, irrespective of socioeconomic background. And the children should

1:21:39.320 --> 1:21:44.080
<v Speaker 1>all be given the best that we can in terms

1:21:44.120 --> 1:21:45.640
<v Speaker 1>of the life of the mind and the promise of

1:21:45.640 --> 1:21:49.679
<v Speaker 1>intellectual joy. But this runs afoul of the social justice

1:21:49.720 --> 1:21:51.479
<v Speaker 1>activists who want to say that this is you know,

1:21:51.560 --> 1:21:54.599
<v Speaker 1>all all the authors that are being taught in this classroom, classroom,

1:21:54.600 --> 1:21:58.360
<v Speaker 1>it's all old white, old dead white males. It doesn't

1:21:58.360 --> 1:22:02.000
<v Speaker 1>matter if the book is a time you know, is

1:22:02.040 --> 1:22:05.040
<v Speaker 1>timeless or incredibly well written, or deals with the historical

1:22:05.040 --> 1:22:07.599
<v Speaker 1>period that all human beings should be you know, very

1:22:07.600 --> 1:22:11.599
<v Speaker 1>familiar with. In fact, if you were really wondering the

1:22:11.720 --> 1:22:16.400
<v Speaker 1>lengths that this this social justice group was willing to

1:22:16.439 --> 1:22:19.439
<v Speaker 1>go to to get Steven Wilson, founder of the Ascend

1:22:19.560 --> 1:22:25.400
<v Speaker 1>Charter school system fired. Remember that when he specifically quote

1:22:25.520 --> 1:22:31.200
<v Speaker 1>when he specifically cites the great African American writers and

1:22:31.240 --> 1:22:36.120
<v Speaker 1>intellectuals from American history. He cites Martin Luther King, he

1:22:36.240 --> 1:22:38.960
<v Speaker 1>cites Frederick Douglass, he cites James bald He says, you

1:22:38.960 --> 1:22:44.120
<v Speaker 1>know this and their timelessness and their role in you know,

1:22:44.240 --> 1:22:47.920
<v Speaker 1>the ur educational system. People understanding the greatness of their thoughts,

1:22:48.000 --> 1:22:52.760
<v Speaker 1>their writing. His citation of great African American authors and

1:22:52.800 --> 1:22:55.439
<v Speaker 1>writers of the past, and the need to make sure

1:22:55.479 --> 1:22:59.800
<v Speaker 1>that they are representing the classroom because of their intellectual worth,

1:22:59.840 --> 1:23:03.280
<v Speaker 1>because of their greatness. That has taken as further evidence

1:23:03.320 --> 1:23:06.280
<v Speaker 1>of his transgression by the social justice left. I bring

1:23:06.280 --> 1:23:08.599
<v Speaker 1>you this quote. The author asked, what would they make

1:23:08.600 --> 1:23:14.200
<v Speaker 1>of Frederick Douglas's fourth of July speak, Martin speech, Martin

1:23:14.280 --> 1:23:18.040
<v Speaker 1>Luther King's letter from Birmingham jail, or James Baldwin's letter

1:23:18.040 --> 1:23:21.719
<v Speaker 1>to his nephew my dungeon shook in the fire next time.

1:23:22.200 --> 1:23:26.120
<v Speaker 1>The author concludes this point by stating, it is hard

1:23:26.120 --> 1:23:29.440
<v Speaker 1>to imagine a more destructive message to teachers and their students.

1:23:29.479 --> 1:23:31.920
<v Speaker 1>This tool will surely become to see as another wrong

1:23:31.960 --> 1:23:35.280
<v Speaker 1>turn on the way to equal opportunity. These statements, this

1:23:35.320 --> 1:23:37.479
<v Speaker 1>is from the petition to get this guy fired. Okay,

1:23:37.880 --> 1:23:43.360
<v Speaker 1>these statements represent a commitment to protecting white supremacy culture

1:23:43.880 --> 1:23:48.799
<v Speaker 1>and paternalistic orientation toward the work of social justice reform.

1:23:50.400 --> 1:23:52.479
<v Speaker 1>This is from the petition that got this guy fired

1:23:52.560 --> 1:23:55.960
<v Speaker 1>from the fifteen school char charter school network that he

1:23:57.040 --> 1:24:01.160
<v Speaker 1>built from the ground up. This is why I got fired.

1:24:02.439 --> 1:24:08.479
<v Speaker 1>He was citing great African American intellectual and literary heroes

1:24:09.720 --> 1:24:13.000
<v Speaker 1>from from within America, from within our own, our own tradition,

1:24:13.720 --> 1:24:20.479
<v Speaker 1>and they viewed that as another transgression. How dare you

1:24:20.600 --> 1:24:24.040
<v Speaker 1>use great black, great Black authors to make the case

1:24:24.240 --> 1:24:27.400
<v Speaker 1>that young Black and Latino children have heroes from within

1:24:27.400 --> 1:24:31.559
<v Speaker 1>their own ellectual tradition that are promoting the same virtues

1:24:31.600 --> 1:24:33.920
<v Speaker 1>and greatness and life of the mind that other other

1:24:34.000 --> 1:24:37.240
<v Speaker 1>authors are. And therefore the case that the social justice

1:24:37.360 --> 1:24:40.160
<v Speaker 1>left that you have to dumb things down, or you

1:24:40.200 --> 1:24:43.719
<v Speaker 1>have to do a different course, slow, different coursework based

1:24:43.720 --> 1:24:47.000
<v Speaker 1>more on inclusion and equity and all these other things,

1:24:47.479 --> 1:24:49.679
<v Speaker 1>that that's not necessary. In fact, that's the wrong path.

1:24:49.880 --> 1:24:52.920
<v Speaker 1>This guy's a liberal, folks, It's clear from where he's writing.

1:24:52.920 --> 1:24:57.160
<v Speaker 1>This guy's a liberal leftist. But he understands education. He

1:24:57.280 --> 1:25:01.960
<v Speaker 1>understands the need to inspire the mind of all people.

1:25:02.120 --> 1:25:06.599
<v Speaker 1>He takes the very basis of what we would think

1:25:06.720 --> 1:25:09.800
<v Speaker 1>is is our need for equality and equity. That we

1:25:09.840 --> 1:25:12.840
<v Speaker 1>are all God's children, that we were all equivalent in

1:25:13.160 --> 1:25:18.519
<v Speaker 1>terms of our our moral worth, and we all should

1:25:18.520 --> 1:25:22.400
<v Speaker 1>be treated equally as human beings, and our ability to

1:25:22.479 --> 1:25:24.559
<v Speaker 1>grow and the life of the mind to grow within

1:25:24.640 --> 1:25:26.479
<v Speaker 1>us should all also be treated equal as human beings.

1:25:26.479 --> 1:25:29.479
<v Speaker 1>The social justice left does not see it that way.

1:25:30.400 --> 1:25:34.559
<v Speaker 1>They want different approaches based on who different people are.

1:25:35.080 --> 1:25:37.360
<v Speaker 1>And this guy's fighting down when he points out how

1:25:38.320 --> 1:25:42.559
<v Speaker 1>absurd that is and how it has failed historically, and

1:25:42.600 --> 1:25:45.200
<v Speaker 1>how there have been other times when people thought that

1:25:45.240 --> 1:25:47.559
<v Speaker 1>they were doing a favor to the new immigrants, they

1:25:47.560 --> 1:25:49.880
<v Speaker 1>thought they were doing a favor to the poor, to

1:25:50.040 --> 1:25:53.920
<v Speaker 1>people in urban ghettos, to people, you know, by changing

1:25:54.000 --> 1:25:57.400
<v Speaker 1>curriculum to make it so that it was you know,

1:25:57.479 --> 1:26:00.000
<v Speaker 1>less of a challenge, or that it was more represent

1:26:00.120 --> 1:26:05.680
<v Speaker 1>editive of of you know, inclusiveness and diversity in terms

1:26:05.720 --> 1:26:07.760
<v Speaker 1>of the reading list or whatever it may be. And

1:26:07.800 --> 1:26:09.560
<v Speaker 1>that that wasn't a good idea that we've tried to

1:26:09.600 --> 1:26:12.280
<v Speaker 1>experiments fell in the past. The left has to crush

1:26:12.360 --> 1:26:15.599
<v Speaker 1>this guy. There's one more point here about all of this.

1:26:16.560 --> 1:26:18.439
<v Speaker 1>I thought was so I mean, this was fascinating stuff,

1:26:18.439 --> 1:26:20.840
<v Speaker 1>and we'll we'll put it up on Facebook dot com.

1:26:20.320 --> 1:26:22.720
<v Speaker 1>So Buck slash buck sex since you guys can see it.

1:26:23.080 --> 1:26:25.560
<v Speaker 1>Chriser Mark, please remember remind me to make sure we

1:26:25.680 --> 1:26:28.920
<v Speaker 1>do that. Mcquarter, who, by the way, is an African

1:26:28.960 --> 1:26:32.240
<v Speaker 1>American writer who's the guy who wrote the piece breaking

1:26:32.280 --> 1:26:35.600
<v Speaker 1>all this down. Mcquarter says at the end that what

1:26:35.680 --> 1:26:40.200
<v Speaker 1>you see from this petition is that it's not It's

1:26:40.240 --> 1:26:43.639
<v Speaker 1>not that they, the people writing this petition, this change

1:26:43.640 --> 1:26:46.880
<v Speaker 1>our petition to get this guy fired. It's not that

1:26:46.920 --> 1:26:50.400
<v Speaker 1>they think calling someone white supremacists is just a a

1:26:50.600 --> 1:26:54.280
<v Speaker 1>tool that is useful for blunt force politics, which it

1:26:54.360 --> 1:26:58.519
<v Speaker 1>certainly is. But he says that it's clear from reading

1:26:58.520 --> 1:27:01.000
<v Speaker 1>this petition that they viewed calling someone a white supremacist

1:27:01.040 --> 1:27:03.720
<v Speaker 1>as in and of itself all that is necessary for

1:27:03.760 --> 1:27:07.240
<v Speaker 1>someone's destruction. That essentially they believe the argument, once you've

1:27:07.240 --> 1:27:10.640
<v Speaker 1>called someone a white supremacist, they must be that and

1:27:10.760 --> 1:27:13.240
<v Speaker 1>must be treated as such without any argument, without any

1:27:13.560 --> 1:27:18.200
<v Speaker 1>underpinning justification. Terrifying in the implications. But this is where

1:27:18.200 --> 1:27:21.519
<v Speaker 1>the social justice left has gone, destroying good people who

1:27:21.600 --> 1:27:23.840
<v Speaker 1>do good things for minority communities while pretending to be

1:27:23.880 --> 1:27:26.080
<v Speaker 1>caring about the very minority communities that were helped by

1:27:26.120 --> 1:27:28.000
<v Speaker 1>the other guy. All right, team, So as we discuss

1:27:28.080 --> 1:27:30.640
<v Speaker 1>today is Veterans Day, and I want to bring on

1:27:31.360 --> 1:27:33.760
<v Speaker 1>we have many good friends who are veterans who are

1:27:33.760 --> 1:27:36.759
<v Speaker 1>frequent guests here in the show. Our friend Brandon Webb

1:27:36.840 --> 1:27:39.200
<v Speaker 1>joins us now. He is the founder of softwarep dot com,

1:27:39.240 --> 1:27:42.719
<v Speaker 1>which also owns Great Club and they have a show

1:27:42.760 --> 1:27:44.680
<v Speaker 1>inside the Team Roman he's gonna tell us about also

1:27:44.680 --> 1:27:49.439
<v Speaker 1>Brandon as a former Navy seal himself. Brandon, Happy Veterans Day, man,

1:27:49.520 --> 1:27:51.280
<v Speaker 1>Thank you for your service. What are your what are

1:27:51.320 --> 1:27:53.280
<v Speaker 1>your thoughts? Just start with your opening thoughts today is

1:27:53.360 --> 1:27:56.439
<v Speaker 1>it's a day to actually appreciate those who have served,

1:27:57.920 --> 1:28:00.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, I mean my thoughts and thank for having

1:28:00.400 --> 1:28:03.960
<v Speaker 1>me on the show. I appreciate it. My thoughts are

1:28:04.720 --> 1:28:07.600
<v Speaker 1>you know this is a data to acknowledge, you know,

1:28:07.680 --> 1:28:11.120
<v Speaker 1>veterans have served. But in the larger picture, you know,

1:28:11.240 --> 1:28:14.240
<v Speaker 1>I think your audience would appreciate the fact now more

1:28:14.280 --> 1:28:17.920
<v Speaker 1>than either, more than more than ever. We need to

1:28:17.960 --> 1:28:21.680
<v Speaker 1>really think about, you know, what we're doing abroad and

1:28:22.000 --> 1:28:24.719
<v Speaker 1>and do we really have a well thought out form

1:28:24.800 --> 1:28:28.040
<v Speaker 1>policy strategy in place? Because you know, you and I

1:28:28.200 --> 1:28:32.360
<v Speaker 1>both lost friends since nine to eleven, and you know,

1:28:32.840 --> 1:28:35.040
<v Speaker 1>I hate to look at what we're doing in Afghanistan now,

1:28:35.040 --> 1:28:38.000
<v Speaker 1>almost twenty years in, and you know, I think we

1:28:38.080 --> 1:28:40.960
<v Speaker 1>just have to really hold hold our politicians accountable and

1:28:41.000 --> 1:28:44.840
<v Speaker 1>make sure that we're we're putting forth America's best and

1:28:44.960 --> 1:28:48.320
<v Speaker 1>brightest to a cause that we can get behind in

1:28:48.400 --> 1:28:50.960
<v Speaker 1>the country. And I mean, do you think we should

1:28:51.000 --> 1:28:53.000
<v Speaker 1>get out get out of Afghanistan brand that I know

1:28:53.040 --> 1:28:56.439
<v Speaker 1>you served there? Yeah, I mean, honestly, the mission when

1:28:56.439 --> 1:28:59.839
<v Speaker 1>I was over there was very clear after nine to eleven.

1:29:00.080 --> 1:29:01.720
<v Speaker 1>You know, I deployed in two thousand and one, two

1:29:01.720 --> 1:29:04.479
<v Speaker 1>thousand and two, it was killed a bunch of bad

1:29:04.520 --> 1:29:07.040
<v Speaker 1>guys and wipe out the training camps, which we did,

1:29:07.120 --> 1:29:10.679
<v Speaker 1>And personally, I think we probably would have been better

1:29:10.720 --> 1:29:14.960
<v Speaker 1>off packing up and leaving in two thousand and three.

1:29:15.320 --> 1:29:17.879
<v Speaker 1>And I just look at, you know, the the amount

1:29:17.920 --> 1:29:22.200
<v Speaker 1>of billions of dollars pumped into that country, and really,

1:29:22.240 --> 1:29:23.640
<v Speaker 1>what are we gonna have to show for it? And

1:29:23.920 --> 1:29:26.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, ideally, if we look at it, if we

1:29:26.840 --> 1:29:29.599
<v Speaker 1>pulled out tomorrow, the Taliban it's back in power. So

1:29:30.040 --> 1:29:32.400
<v Speaker 1>it's just one of those things. Um, you know, not

1:29:32.640 --> 1:29:35.120
<v Speaker 1>going a tangent when you look at Syria, right, I

1:29:35.200 --> 1:29:39.519
<v Speaker 1>think Trump made the right call by pulling troops out

1:29:39.520 --> 1:29:42.000
<v Speaker 1>of Syria because we don't really want to get into

1:29:42.000 --> 1:29:47.400
<v Speaker 1>a proxy war with Russia and Iran, and so you

1:29:47.439 --> 1:29:50.439
<v Speaker 1>think series the right move. Do you feel like the

1:29:50.479 --> 1:29:52.960
<v Speaker 1>administration by large? I mean, well, when you talk to

1:29:53.040 --> 1:29:57.840
<v Speaker 1>veterans about about how Trump is doing as commander in chief,

1:29:57.880 --> 1:30:02.639
<v Speaker 1>what's the what's the overriding sentiment did you pick up? Yeah,

1:30:02.840 --> 1:30:05.880
<v Speaker 1>I mean it's a good question, right, I think largely

1:30:06.760 --> 1:30:12.280
<v Speaker 1>the sentiment that I hear among my fellow veterans that

1:30:12.280 --> 1:30:14.719
<v Speaker 1>that Trump has been a pretty good commander in chief,

1:30:14.760 --> 1:30:17.479
<v Speaker 1>like in the form of really respecting the troops, which

1:30:18.200 --> 1:30:20.840
<v Speaker 1>I served under the Clinton administration when I first joined

1:30:20.840 --> 1:30:25.720
<v Speaker 1>the Navy, and it was well known amongst all military

1:30:25.760 --> 1:30:28.840
<v Speaker 1>service members that there was kind of a disdain of

1:30:28.880 --> 1:30:32.519
<v Speaker 1>sorts for men and women in uniform and that's just

1:30:32.640 --> 1:30:37.040
<v Speaker 1>not good for morale. Right, Yeah, that is clearly that

1:30:37.160 --> 1:30:40.080
<v Speaker 1>is part of the case. Brandon tell us about Inside

1:30:40.080 --> 1:30:42.120
<v Speaker 1>the team Room, the show that you guys have launched

1:30:42.120 --> 1:30:46.000
<v Speaker 1>over at soft Rup. So the first team Room show

1:30:46.000 --> 1:30:49.120
<v Speaker 1>we did was back in twoy twelve, when we launched

1:30:49.120 --> 1:30:54.200
<v Speaker 1>softwap dot com, it actually featured Chris Kyle Americ, who

1:30:54.280 --> 1:30:57.080
<v Speaker 1>was the American Sniper at the time. Him and I

1:30:57.160 --> 1:31:00.960
<v Speaker 1>had two books out together, my Being the Red Circle

1:31:01.000 --> 1:31:04.840
<v Speaker 1>and his Being America Sniper, and that showed it extremely well.

1:31:04.920 --> 1:31:07.519
<v Speaker 1>We since pulled it down out of respect to the

1:31:07.880 --> 1:31:11.040
<v Speaker 1>for the family, but the series has carried on. So

1:31:11.080 --> 1:31:13.840
<v Speaker 1>we just launched a new series on dot com called

1:31:14.040 --> 1:31:18.120
<v Speaker 1>Inside the Team Room Navy Seal Snipers. Um. It features

1:31:18.160 --> 1:31:22.599
<v Speaker 1>myself Charlie Melton, who worked with me as an instructor

1:31:22.600 --> 1:31:25.400
<v Speaker 1>at the Sniper program, and it really goes into like

1:31:26.720 --> 1:31:31.520
<v Speaker 1>areas of conversation that you just don't find on typical

1:31:32.240 --> 1:31:36.160
<v Speaker 1>television or cable programming. And that's what I think really

1:31:36.200 --> 1:31:39.960
<v Speaker 1>makes the show special is you know, Charlie can you know,

1:31:40.000 --> 1:31:43.360
<v Speaker 1>talk about the struggles of transitioning from active duty to

1:31:43.400 --> 1:31:47.000
<v Speaker 1>civilian life, but also you know the time he shot

1:31:47.080 --> 1:31:50.320
<v Speaker 1>someone at sixty yards with a fifty cal sniper rifle,

1:31:50.400 --> 1:31:53.879
<v Speaker 1>So that you know, the stories are engaging and um,

1:31:53.960 --> 1:31:55.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, I think people are really going to enjoy

1:31:55.920 --> 1:32:00.360
<v Speaker 1>the show going to find it at soft reap dot com.

1:32:00.360 --> 1:32:04.519
<v Speaker 1>We put the first three episodes on YouTube on our

1:32:04.560 --> 1:32:08.880
<v Speaker 1>YouTube channel for free, um but our you know, we

1:32:08.960 --> 1:32:11.639
<v Speaker 1>have a military version of Netflix on software so people

1:32:11.640 --> 1:32:14.960
<v Speaker 1>can can sign up for monthly and access the video

1:32:15.040 --> 1:32:17.600
<v Speaker 1>the rest of the series. There Former Navy seal and

1:32:17.680 --> 1:32:20.880
<v Speaker 1>softwarep dot com founder Brandon Webb, Brandon, my friend. Great

<v Speaker 1>dot com. Carl says Buck Carl here just saying you

1:33:04.720 --> 1:33:07.240
<v Speaker 1>sound like the guy off Princess Bride, you know that

1:33:07.280 --> 1:33:10.080
<v Speaker 1>mel Brooks played, or the witch that yells. You know,

1:33:10.320 --> 1:33:12.720
<v Speaker 1>it's the inflection of the tone that's hilarious. When do

1:33:12.760 --> 1:33:14.719
<v Speaker 1>I sound like the Princess? Oh? Want to do Bernie?

1:33:15.160 --> 1:33:16.720
<v Speaker 1>Bernie said this, I don't know, I don't know who

1:33:16.720 --> 1:33:19.120
<v Speaker 1>we're talking about here. Well as far as Joe Biden

1:33:19.120 --> 1:33:23.120
<v Speaker 1>goes he needs about four or five years of previgin

1:33:25.280 --> 1:33:32.520
<v Speaker 1>what and producer Mark Huey, Dewey Louis and Scrooge McDuck. Okay,

1:33:32.640 --> 1:33:36.200
<v Speaker 1>thank you, Carl. I don't even know what's going on here, Carl.

1:33:36.240 --> 1:33:42.760
<v Speaker 1>I appreciate you running in all right, Benny, Benny and

1:33:42.840 --> 1:33:48.880
<v Speaker 1>the Jets, Hey Buck, how many more slanted, biased, non attributable, false,

1:33:49.040 --> 1:33:53.519
<v Speaker 1>misleading quote news articles we'll it take before Conservatives on

1:33:53.520 --> 1:33:56.200
<v Speaker 1>Capitol Hill began using a Lensky's tactic of ridicule as

1:33:56.240 --> 1:33:58.400
<v Speaker 1>a most potent weapon. If a conservative has asked to

1:33:58.479 --> 1:34:00.280
<v Speaker 1>comment on a story from the New York Time Times,

1:34:00.680 --> 1:34:03.080
<v Speaker 1>they respond every time they didn't read it, nor do

1:34:03.160 --> 1:34:05.680
<v Speaker 1>they comment on anything that from a particular fraudulent source.

1:34:05.720 --> 1:34:12.479
<v Speaker 1>Will be the American people. Bob whoa shields high? Benny, Yeah,

1:34:13.080 --> 1:34:14.640
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, man, I don't know where the meat

1:34:14.680 --> 1:34:17.400
<v Speaker 1>we're fighting. We're fighting the anti we're in the media,

1:34:17.479 --> 1:34:19.840
<v Speaker 1>fighting the anti media war. That seems to be what's

1:34:19.880 --> 1:34:24.760
<v Speaker 1>going on here. Karen about Christine Blasi Forge right, she

1:34:24.800 --> 1:34:27.559
<v Speaker 1>can't remember where or when that party was, but she

1:34:27.640 --> 1:34:31.240
<v Speaker 1>claims Brett having assaulted her. But she remembers she only

1:34:31.280 --> 1:34:34.559
<v Speaker 1>had one beer. When my alcoholic clients say one beer,

1:34:34.600 --> 1:34:38.080
<v Speaker 1>they mean a forty ounce bottle. Well, Karen, as you know,

1:34:38.200 --> 1:34:41.000
<v Speaker 1>I think that the Blasi Ford was a political hit,

1:34:41.040 --> 1:34:45.280
<v Speaker 1>and I think that she was probably just delusional but

1:34:45.400 --> 1:34:51.439
<v Speaker 1>definitely incorrect and possibly lying intentionally. But that's that's where

1:34:51.439 --> 1:34:54.439
<v Speaker 1>I am on this. Let's see here, lo right, So

1:34:54.560 --> 1:34:56.559
<v Speaker 1>listen to your show because your version of the day's events.

1:34:57.000 --> 1:34:59.439
<v Speaker 1>I really like the roll call structure of interaction with

1:34:59.479 --> 1:35:01.519
<v Speaker 1>your listeners opinions. Taking call some people in the middle

1:35:01.560 --> 1:35:03.880
<v Speaker 1>of the the show is what everybody else does. It gets old.

1:35:04.479 --> 1:35:06.439
<v Speaker 1>I really like everything you're doing to expand your media company.

1:35:06.520 --> 1:35:10.760
<v Speaker 1>Kudos to producer Mark. Oh, you know, we appreciate producer Mark.

1:35:11.360 --> 1:35:12.800
<v Speaker 1>We just don't want him to, you know, get a

1:35:12.800 --> 1:35:15.040
<v Speaker 1>big head or anything, you know, because now we're doing

1:35:15.040 --> 1:35:16.960
<v Speaker 1>all this cool new stuff and producer Marcus, you know,

1:35:17.040 --> 1:35:19.160
<v Speaker 1>running the cool new stuff. Don't worry, my head could

1:35:19.160 --> 1:35:21.000
<v Speaker 1>never get as big as yours. That is a that

1:35:21.120 --> 1:35:24.240
<v Speaker 1>is a literally true statements. My cranium is giant. I'm

1:35:24.320 --> 1:35:26.840
<v Speaker 1>in literally n figured to lay here you go, but

1:35:26.960 --> 1:35:30.000
<v Speaker 1>producer Marcus here to make sure that the buckster's feet

1:35:30.040 --> 1:35:31.760
<v Speaker 1>stayed on the ground. Here in the Freedom Hut not

1:35:31.960 --> 1:35:33.760
<v Speaker 1>floating up into the sky. I don't worry about that.

1:35:34.640 --> 1:35:38.280
<v Speaker 1>We have Dixie right. Hey, Buck, just wondering you've seen

1:35:38.400 --> 1:35:44.160
<v Speaker 1>heard the new ad for the Hartford Insurance Company. The

1:35:44.240 --> 1:35:48.920
<v Speaker 1>Buck starts here. I have not. I have not, but

1:35:49.120 --> 1:35:56.200
<v Speaker 1>I will um, I will check it out. John rights Buck.

1:35:56.240 --> 1:35:59.320
<v Speaker 1>Trump is the ultimate capitalist as such, just the fact

1:35:59.320 --> 1:36:02.200
<v Speaker 1>that he is. He is a direct to the government

1:36:02.280 --> 1:36:05.559
<v Speaker 1>swamp and bureaucrat blah blah. Wait what hold on? Trump

1:36:05.600 --> 1:36:08.000
<v Speaker 1>is the ultimate capitalist as such, just the fact that

1:36:08.040 --> 1:36:12.560
<v Speaker 1>he is is a direct there we go to the

1:36:12.600 --> 1:36:15.000
<v Speaker 1>government swamp and every beer kind of Washington, DC. That's

1:36:15.040 --> 1:36:16.960
<v Speaker 1>one of the reasons they hate him so much for

1:36:17.120 --> 1:36:20.559
<v Speaker 1>as long as they do. John m Yeah, John, I

1:36:20.600 --> 1:36:23.800
<v Speaker 1>do think that that is that you're onto something here

1:36:23.880 --> 1:36:27.519
<v Speaker 1>with that Trump is a threat to the swamp. They

1:36:27.600 --> 1:36:33.919
<v Speaker 1>recognize that, and so they act accordingly. So there you go, Jacob.

1:36:34.479 --> 1:36:36.439
<v Speaker 1>I love that you have an official email. Now I'm

1:36:36.479 --> 1:36:37.840
<v Speaker 1>doing my best to get out the word about Team

1:36:37.840 --> 1:36:39.920
<v Speaker 1>Buck and recommending the podcast to all my friends. Go

1:36:40.000 --> 1:36:43.000
<v Speaker 1>Team Buck with your shielder on at Jake in upstate

1:36:44.000 --> 1:36:46.000
<v Speaker 1>New York. Jake, thank you, man, I really mean it.

1:36:46.040 --> 1:36:48.200
<v Speaker 1>Those of you that can please tell tell your folks,

1:36:48.240 --> 1:36:51.200
<v Speaker 1>tell your conservative friends to listen to the Buck Sexton Show.

1:36:51.200 --> 1:36:54.720
<v Speaker 1>It is the single most helpful thing you can do

1:36:55.000 --> 1:36:58.040
<v Speaker 1>is to get somebody that you know who doesn't already

1:36:58.040 --> 1:37:01.160
<v Speaker 1>listen to the show to listen. That is a game

1:37:01.240 --> 1:37:03.120
<v Speaker 1>changer for us here. All right, now we'll go over

1:37:03.120 --> 1:37:08.880
<v Speaker 1>to the Facebook side of things. We got Jonathan rights Buck,

1:37:08.920 --> 1:37:13.000
<v Speaker 1>Producer Mark, don't go knocking out libs. The cameras mightier

1:37:13.000 --> 1:37:15.559
<v Speaker 1>than the progressive mouth pointed their way and they melt

1:37:15.640 --> 1:37:18.080
<v Speaker 1>like the witch from OZ. That is all. Thank you, Jonathan,

1:37:18.080 --> 1:37:21.040
<v Speaker 1>don't worry. We are we are not violent, violent types

1:37:21.080 --> 1:37:24.519
<v Speaker 1>in here. But and Producer Mark, was you say if

1:37:24.560 --> 1:37:28.599
<v Speaker 1>anybody were to be disrespectful to missus, Producer Mark, there

1:37:28.600 --> 1:37:30.800
<v Speaker 1>would be hell to pay, which I back one hundred percent.

1:37:30.880 --> 1:37:33.479
<v Speaker 1>I mean that's different. That's not just me being violent. No, No,

1:37:33.520 --> 1:37:36.759
<v Speaker 1>that's you just yeah, standing my ground, standing your grampan

1:37:36.840 --> 1:37:39.320
<v Speaker 1>to man. Yeah, that's right, totally. But Jonathan, I know

1:37:39.360 --> 1:37:41.519
<v Speaker 1>he doesn't want us to give any any liberals a

1:37:41.560 --> 1:37:44.439
<v Speaker 1>knuckle sandwich. Remember when people say give you a knuckle sandwich,

1:37:45.160 --> 1:37:48.040
<v Speaker 1>that's you know, old old timey stole, old times. Yes, yeah, Well,

1:37:48.080 --> 1:37:50.200
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to give anyone knuckle sandwich unless they

1:37:50.400 --> 1:37:54.479
<v Speaker 1>start really deserve it. Yeah, Julia Rights, buck great show

1:37:54.520 --> 1:37:56.080
<v Speaker 1>has always I agree with you. You have to go

1:37:56.080 --> 1:37:59.880
<v Speaker 1>with your instincts first. No, mouthguard might as a word

1:38:00.000 --> 1:38:02.360
<v Speaker 1>avenger shirt and crocs while you're at it. Good teeth

1:38:02.360 --> 1:38:05.960
<v Speaker 1>are for TV people anyway, Shields high. Thank you, Julia.

1:38:06.120 --> 1:38:11.240
<v Speaker 1>I think I think that's helpful. I'll take it ill,

1:38:11.280 --> 1:38:15.320
<v Speaker 1>I'll roll with it. So yes, indeed, Um, the mouthguard

1:38:16.240 --> 1:38:18.240
<v Speaker 1>I have not. I have not yet been able to

1:38:18.280 --> 1:38:20.720
<v Speaker 1>get that thing to do what I want to do.

1:38:20.840 --> 1:38:23.920
<v Speaker 1>So um, but I'm working. I'm working on all the things,

1:38:23.960 --> 1:38:29.040
<v Speaker 1>working all the stuff. Amanda Rights, thanks for the book recommendations.

1:38:29.080 --> 1:38:34.720
<v Speaker 1>Also Endgame. The new Marvel movie stunk. I was so

1:38:34.760 --> 1:38:39.240
<v Speaker 1>mad that I spent all my time watching it. Um. Yeah,

1:38:39.479 --> 1:38:43.360
<v Speaker 1>she's right, isn't she? Mark No, she is very very wrong,

1:38:44.320 --> 1:38:46.799
<v Speaker 1>just saying another one. Put another one on the board

1:38:46.960 --> 1:38:49.600
<v Speaker 1>for the bucks. That's like two and the rest of

1:38:49.600 --> 1:38:51.880
<v Speaker 1>them are with me. So the ones who know know

1:38:51.960 --> 1:38:54.040
<v Speaker 1>what's up. I know what. I watched her the weekend.

1:38:54.040 --> 1:38:58.280
<v Speaker 1>It was it was Oh, can I recommend it? I

1:38:58.320 --> 1:39:01.760
<v Speaker 1>watched The King on Netflix. It was pretty well done.

1:39:01.760 --> 1:39:03.920
<v Speaker 1>It's about Henry the Fifth Battle of a Juan Carl.

1:39:04.160 --> 1:39:07.640
<v Speaker 1>It's pretty good. But and the battle sequence they did,

1:39:07.720 --> 1:39:10.240
<v Speaker 1>I feel like, was hyper realistic, which was an interesting

1:39:10.320 --> 1:39:13.080
<v Speaker 1>way to go for that period. They did not. It

1:39:13.320 --> 1:39:15.519
<v Speaker 1>wasn't a lot of these battles. They have a guy

1:39:15.680 --> 1:39:18.559
<v Speaker 1>who you know, was standing in the battlefield and he's

1:39:18.600 --> 1:39:21.320
<v Speaker 1>like cutting down people left and right, and it's all

1:39:21.439 --> 1:39:25.080
<v Speaker 1>very choreographed and you know he's like yeah, yeah, and

1:39:25.120 --> 1:39:26.760
<v Speaker 1>you can see him and every This battle was just

1:39:26.920 --> 1:39:29.160
<v Speaker 1>like a man I mean, dudes rolling around the mud,

1:39:29.320 --> 1:39:32.880
<v Speaker 1>stabbing each other in the eyes with you know, sharpened sticks,

1:39:33.160 --> 1:39:35.439
<v Speaker 1>crushing each other, horses fall on top of people. I

1:39:35.520 --> 1:39:38.519
<v Speaker 1>mean that it was. It was a little a little

1:39:38.560 --> 1:39:41.880
<v Speaker 1>bit like the best episode of Game of Thrones probably ever,

1:39:41.960 --> 1:39:44.280
<v Speaker 1>which was the Battle of the Bastards, where you had

1:39:44.320 --> 1:39:47.000
<v Speaker 1>that fight sequence, but that was stylized. But it was

1:39:48.120 --> 1:39:50.280
<v Speaker 1>it was pretty well done. I thought this was a

1:39:50.560 --> 1:39:52.920
<v Speaker 1>not a very stylized battle sequence at all, and it was.

1:39:54.000 --> 1:39:57.160
<v Speaker 1>It was good. The movie itself, though, I feel like

1:39:57.240 --> 1:39:58.720
<v Speaker 1>drags a little bit, all a slow in some places,

1:39:58.760 --> 1:40:00.519
<v Speaker 1>but a Netflix movie was pretty good. But yeah, if

1:40:00.520 --> 1:40:02.400
<v Speaker 1>you want to see some about Henry the Fifth and

1:40:02.880 --> 1:40:08.240
<v Speaker 1>John Falstaff doing their thing. I thought it was it

1:40:08.360 --> 1:40:10.320
<v Speaker 1>was a it was a solid enough effort. I watched

1:40:10.360 --> 1:40:13.880
<v Speaker 1>it over the course of the weekend. Lauren Rights, Hey Bock,

1:40:13.920 --> 1:40:16.439
<v Speaker 1>I just started watching your show on Pluto TV using

1:40:16.479 --> 1:40:20.080
<v Speaker 1>our Roku. A couple of comments. The audio volume between

1:40:20.120 --> 1:40:22.920
<v Speaker 1>your show and the commercials significant. The commercials are too loud,

1:40:22.960 --> 1:40:27.559
<v Speaker 1>your show is too soft. There's a okay and more

1:40:27.600 --> 1:40:30.160
<v Speaker 1>complaints about commercial Well, we love our sponsors, but Lauren,

1:40:30.160 --> 1:40:32.120
<v Speaker 1>we will pass this onto producer Mark and he can

1:40:32.840 --> 1:40:34.479
<v Speaker 1>see if he can work some of that Producer Mark

1:40:34.560 --> 1:40:37.799
<v Speaker 1>magic to do all the things, make all the things happen.

1:40:39.280 --> 1:40:45.560
<v Speaker 1>James Dune Dune Dune, I side with producer Mark. I

1:40:45.720 --> 1:40:48.760
<v Speaker 1>support the Mets shields tire from w g Y New York.

1:40:49.680 --> 1:40:53.599
<v Speaker 1>So James is also miserable. Yeah, the Mets not so good.

1:40:54.439 --> 1:40:58.040
<v Speaker 1>They are usually laughing stock of baseball. How can they

1:40:58.080 --> 1:40:59.439
<v Speaker 1>be the case? The New York is such a big

1:40:59.520 --> 1:41:02.000
<v Speaker 1>sports make so much. Yeah, well they have ownership that

1:41:02.120 --> 1:41:04.200
<v Speaker 1>refuses to spend money on the team. But they love

1:41:04.280 --> 1:41:06.920
<v Speaker 1>when we spend money, you know, buying merchandise and tickets

1:41:06.960 --> 1:41:09.040
<v Speaker 1>and food and all that stuff. But they won't spend

1:41:09.080 --> 1:41:11.840
<v Speaker 1>it on players. Yeah, it's not good. That's that's not

1:41:11.880 --> 1:41:13.560
<v Speaker 1>a recipe for success. I feel like it is not

1:41:13.720 --> 1:41:16.960
<v Speaker 1>not in baseball where there's no salary cap. M what's

1:41:17.000 --> 1:41:19.160
<v Speaker 1>the best? What are like the mega teams? Well, the

1:41:19.280 --> 1:41:22.360
<v Speaker 1>Yankees they're the ultimate team, the Red Sox, the Dodgers,

1:41:22.720 --> 1:41:24.519
<v Speaker 1>most of the ones, the kind of the marquee names.

1:41:24.560 --> 1:41:25.960
<v Speaker 1>It's not like a team. It's not. You know, Golden

1:41:26.000 --> 1:41:28.120
<v Speaker 1>State Warriors were a joke ten years ago or fifteen

1:41:28.200 --> 1:41:30.200
<v Speaker 1>years ago. Now they're like the team. Well now they're

1:41:30.240 --> 1:41:32.280
<v Speaker 1>not anymore this year. They have a lot of players injured.

1:41:32.360 --> 1:41:34.479
<v Speaker 1>But well, okay, well I was class I see, I

1:41:34.520 --> 1:41:36.680
<v Speaker 1>almost dropped some sports knowledge. Almost didn't let me get

1:41:36.680 --> 1:41:38.880
<v Speaker 1>it was very close. Yeah, I knew more about sports

1:41:39.120 --> 1:41:40.800
<v Speaker 1>back in the nineties than I do now. But now

1:41:40.880 --> 1:41:42.040
<v Speaker 1>I have to just read all the time so I

1:41:42.080 --> 1:41:43.760
<v Speaker 1>can tell team Buck what's going You still think the

1:41:43.840 --> 1:41:46.160
<v Speaker 1>Knicks are a good team? Are they not a good team? Oh?

1:41:46.200 --> 1:41:49.080
<v Speaker 1>My god, they're the worst team in basketball. That's really that.

1:41:49.240 --> 1:41:51.759
<v Speaker 1>That's another How is that possible? They got the biggest

1:41:51.800 --> 1:41:55.240
<v Speaker 1>basketball market in the country here, Yes, New York City

1:41:55.320 --> 1:41:59.880
<v Speaker 1>loves basketball. Well, another ownership problem is that the Dolans,

1:42:00.000 --> 1:42:02.040
<v Speaker 1>I've hurt. He's a joke. I knew somebody used to

1:42:02.080 --> 1:42:04.080
<v Speaker 1>work for them and said that it was amazing to

1:42:04.160 --> 1:42:06.080
<v Speaker 1>work for a sports franchise with the people who owned

1:42:06.080 --> 1:42:08.160
<v Speaker 1>the franchise didn't care about sports. See if he was

1:42:08.600 --> 1:42:10.360
<v Speaker 1>like to the Knicks like he is to the Rangers,

1:42:10.400 --> 1:42:12.599
<v Speaker 1>the Knicks would be good. He just leaves the Rangers alone,

1:42:12.680 --> 1:42:15.120
<v Speaker 1>lets the hockey people do the hockey things. Doesn't do

1:42:15.200 --> 1:42:19.120
<v Speaker 1>that with basketball. I see, Yeah, Cody Rights, Hey Buck,

1:42:19.200 --> 1:42:26.320
<v Speaker 1>you're looked up Porter Stansbury before Wikipedia. Yeah, Cody, Porter's

1:42:26.360 --> 1:42:28.439
<v Speaker 1>my man. Porter's a friend of mine. He's great. So

1:42:28.760 --> 1:42:31.200
<v Speaker 1>I know all about Porter. Let's see what else we

1:42:31.280 --> 1:42:34.360
<v Speaker 1>have here, Gina, hey Buck, Robin and Prince of Thieves

1:42:34.640 --> 1:42:38.400
<v Speaker 1>is okay. But it's not just he has no English accent.

1:42:38.479 --> 1:42:41.760
<v Speaker 1>He starts off with one badly, in my opinion, in

1:42:41.840 --> 1:42:46.120
<v Speaker 1>the first twenty minutes or so, it's completely gone. Is

1:42:46.160 --> 1:42:48.640
<v Speaker 1>that really true? But I will say Alan Rickman is

1:42:48.640 --> 1:42:51.320
<v Speaker 1>a badass Sheriff of Nottingham. I'll cut jall hot out

1:42:51.400 --> 1:42:55.639
<v Speaker 1>with a spoon shield tie. Gina, you may be right

1:42:55.720 --> 1:43:01.320
<v Speaker 1>about about the performance that what's his name turned in

1:43:01.560 --> 1:43:05.240
<v Speaker 1>for Robin Hood Prince of Thieves. I don't remember. I

1:43:05.320 --> 1:43:07.840
<v Speaker 1>just remember him walking around like I am Robin Hood.

1:43:08.200 --> 1:43:09.920
<v Speaker 1>I do not have an accent. Everyone else's like, O,

1:43:09.960 --> 1:43:13.160
<v Speaker 1>who's that Robin Hood? Is he trying to steal bread

1:43:13.360 --> 1:43:16.080
<v Speaker 1>from the sheriff and give it to the pool people.

1:43:17.400 --> 1:43:20.479
<v Speaker 1>It looks like that. You know. Everyone else has got

1:43:20.520 --> 1:43:23.639
<v Speaker 1>like a real serious accent. He's like, I am Robin Hood.

1:43:23.680 --> 1:43:26.519
<v Speaker 1>I have no accent. I didn't think that was cool. Yeah,

1:43:26.520 --> 1:43:28.519
<v Speaker 1>if everyone else has an accent, you need an accent.

1:43:28.560 --> 1:43:30.719
<v Speaker 1>They're walking around. I'm like, oh boy, he's so good

1:43:30.800 --> 1:43:34.320
<v Speaker 1>with the bower de row. Look at him. He takes

1:43:34.400 --> 1:43:38.400
<v Speaker 1>the bowie, shoots the arrow realm like right straight on

1:43:40.840 --> 1:43:43.040
<v Speaker 1>dunk in the blinds. I sound just like the guy

1:43:43.280 --> 1:43:47.040
<v Speaker 1>dunk in the assistant that he has. Thank you, Robin Nood,

1:43:47.080 --> 1:43:50.040
<v Speaker 1>you gave me a bit of bread. It's the ninety

1:43:50.120 --> 1:43:52.479
<v Speaker 1>so we think it old. British people talk like this

1:43:52.640 --> 1:43:55.960
<v Speaker 1>a little bit unless they're the Queen than they sound fancy.

1:43:57.200 --> 1:43:59.519
<v Speaker 1>I do love a nice British accent. Yeah exactly, I

1:43:59.760 --> 1:44:01.559
<v Speaker 1>probably be fake one at bars. You'd be helpful here

1:44:01.600 --> 1:44:03.479
<v Speaker 1>in New York City. All right, that's gonna be it
