That didn't work out the way they thought 69 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,920 Speaker 1: it was going too clearly, now they've raided his house, 70 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:04,639 Speaker 1: they went to mar A Lago, they try to lock 71 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,640 Speaker 1: up his family.

Now, let me also be clear. 75 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,400 Speaker 1: The President at the at a meeting today at the 76 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:19,720 Speaker 1: White House. He was asked by the press about this, 77 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:21,359 Speaker 1: and I want you to hear what he had to 78 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:24,919 Speaker 1: say in his own words. Listen carefully as the press says, Hey, 79 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 1: what about this investigation. 80 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:27,800 Speaker 2: President Trump? 81 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 3: James Comy, and John Brennan now under criminal investigation. 82 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 2: Related to the Trump Rush of probe?

I think they're crooked as hell, and 87 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 4: maybe they have to pay a price for that. I 88 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 4: believe they are truly bad people and dishonest people. So 89 00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 4: whatever happens happens. 90 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 1: I love his response. Whatever happens happens, right, President Trump reacting, Well, 91 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 1: I don't really know here. I'm not saying they should 92 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: be in jail. I think they're very dishonest people. I 93 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 1: think they're very cricket people. And you know, I think 94 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 1: they're a crooked as hell, and maybe they have to 95 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 1: pay a price for that, he said. I believe they 96 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,839 Speaker 1: are truly bad people and dishonest people. So whatever happens 97 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: happens now. This is like the ultimate game of chess, 98 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:26,160 Speaker 1: right Others are playing checkers. Others are playing checkers, and 99 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 1: he's playing chess right now. 100 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:29,360 Speaker 2: And there's people that are. 101 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,720 Speaker 1: Trying to like distract him from the real issues here. 102 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:36,479 Speaker 1: And the reality is the president is going to be 103 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 1: able to pull this off and sit back and see 104 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:40,599 Speaker 1: what actually happens. 105 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,359 Speaker 2: There's also something else I want to play for you. 106 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 1: John Brennan, he was asked about this investigation. Here's what 107 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 1: he had to say on MSNBC about it, acting like 108 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 1: he knows nothing about it all, Like I don't know anything. 109 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 1: I don't know anything that's going on. I'm just John Brennan, 110 00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 1: former CIA director. I'm just sitting in my house, just 111 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 1: doing an interview on US. 112 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 5: Now is our guest John Brennan here for his first 113 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 5: public comments on this news. 114 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:06,480 Speaker 2: Director Brennan, thank you. 115 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:07,159 Speaker 3: For being here. 116 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 2: Good to see Nicole, tell me if I have. 117 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 5: Left anything out of the fact pattern, if you go 118 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 5: back to your role in government and the way the 119 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:23,799 Speaker 5: assessment was put together about Russia's role in the twenty 120 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 5: sixteen presidential election. 121 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, as Jogi Berra has famously said, as stajaboo 122 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,040 Speaker 3: all over again, it is hard to believe that here 123 00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:34,240 Speaker 3: you are, eight and a half years afterward, we're still 124 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 3: going over at this ground that has been I think 125 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 3: fairly well and exhaustively plowed. First of all, I should 126 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:43,600 Speaker 3: say I know nothing about this reported investigation or referral 127 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 3: to the dj other than what I've read in these 128 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 3: press reports, these leaks which are not really supposed to 129 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 3: happen if there is an investigation going on. Secondly, nobody 130 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 3: from the FBI or Department of Justice for CIA has 131 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,039 Speaker 3: reached out to me at all. So I am just 132 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 3: waiting to hear more about what this might be. And 133 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 3: so again I appreciate the opportunity to. 134 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 2: Talk to you today. 135 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 3: I'm very proud of the work that the women and 136 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:10,119 Speaker 3: men of the CIA and of other elements the intellis 137 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 3: community did eight and a half years ago when they 138 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 3: put together this Intelligence Community assessment. We went to great 139 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:19,040 Speaker 3: lens to protect the integrity of the process, the integrity 140 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 3: and the sensitivity of the intelligence involved, as well as 141 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 3: to protect the identities of individuals that may have been 142 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:28,080 Speaker 3: implicated in some of this intelligence, including from the Trump administration. 143 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 3: And so we went to whatever lens we needed to 144 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,000 Speaker 3: do to go to in order to make sure that 145 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,799 Speaker 3: we're able to follow through with the President Obama's request 146 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:41,120 Speaker 3: that a comprehensive and exhaustive review be done of Russian 147 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:45,479 Speaker 3: interference in twenty sixteen election, because he and others realized 148 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 3: that the Russians were going to continue to do this 149 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:49,839 Speaker 3: in subsequent elections, and he wanted to make sure that 150 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:53,479 Speaker 3: we were going to have the collection of information and 151 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:57,480 Speaker 3: intelligence that we then could hand over to our successors. 152 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 3: And as you pointed out, it had been US reviews 153 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 3: of this intelscreeny assessment, and the process went through the 154 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,919 Speaker 3: bipartisans and in tells US to good report, to the 155 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:10,679 Speaker 3: Dorm investigation, other types of things which validated it. And indeed, 156 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 3: as you pointed out, the CI note this tradecraft review, 157 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 3: and I will point out there was a serious violation 158 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 3: in terms of what they did. They never interviewed me 159 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 3: or Jim Clapper, two of the people involved in this 160 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 3: before putting this thing out, But it says in there 161 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 3: that the rigor of the analysis in that intel screen 162 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 3: assessment exceeded that of most other Intelscomuny assessments. So again, 163 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 3: I think this is unfortunately a very sad and tragic 164 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 3: example of the continued politization of the intelli's community, of 165 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 3: the nascrity process, And quite frankly, I'm really shocked that 166 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 3: individuals who are willing to sacrifice their reputations, their credibility, 167 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 3: their decency to continue to do Donald Trump's bidding on 168 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 3: something that clearly is just politically based. 169 00:07:57,760 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 2: Jeff, politically based. So let me get this straight. 170 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 1: The same guy that pushed Russia collusion to try to 171 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 1: overthrow the will of the people is now claiming that 172 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 1: when we're investigating him for knowingly perpetrating a lie on 173 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 1: the American people and trying to overthrow the will of 174 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 1: the people in a free and fair election, it is 175 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:22,680 Speaker 1: just partisan and political. Now, Now, I also go back 176 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 1: to the point that he made, which is, I don't 177 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 1: believe that John Brennan, the Formacy director, is this dumb 178 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 1: at all. I think he knows exactly what he's doing, 179 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 1: and he said in the interview quote, I'm clueless about 180 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 1: what it is exactly. 181 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 2: That they are investigating me for. 182 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:42,200 Speaker 1: Really, you don't know that it's for exactly what I 183 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 1: just told you it's for, Like you're this dumb. I 184 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: don't believe you. I think the American people, by the way, 185 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 1: do not believe you. And I think this is a 186 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 1: moment in time. You're going to remember this for a 187 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:58,840 Speaker 1: long time. John Brennan now on the other end of it, 188 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:00,720 Speaker 1: what he used to do to other people is now 189 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:03,440 Speaker 1: happening to him. But the difference is he went after 190 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,439 Speaker 1: innocent people and John Brennan very well could be guilty 191 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 1: as hell. In fact, let me just play for you 192 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:14,680 Speaker 1: this back and forth MSNBC John Brennan in him acting 193 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:16,840 Speaker 1: like the dumbest CIA director in the world, like I 194 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 1: don't know what they're doing. I don't know why they'd 195 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:19,560 Speaker 1: be investigating me. 196 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:26,680 Speaker 5: My colleague Kendelanian is reporting that TJ has essentially confirmed 197 00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 5: a criminal investigation has been opened or a referral has 198 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 5: been made. Do you believe that to be true? And 199 00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,840 Speaker 5: if that's the case, what would the process be for 200 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 5: you to be aware of that, made aware of that. 201 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:45,640 Speaker 2: Quite factly, I don't know what is true. 202 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,200 Speaker 3: You know, there's so many things that get out into 203 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:51,680 Speaker 3: the media bloodstream, and it's interesting that it was I 204 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 3: think Fox News and your posts or reporting things like this. 205 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:57,959 Speaker 3: So I don't know whether or not there's any validity 206 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:00,840 Speaker 3: to it. If there is, it was referral is an investigation. 207 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,960 Speaker 3: Presumably if there is an investigation, that people will be questioned. 208 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 3: I would be questioned about it. But again I've had 209 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 3: no contact from them. But again I testified in front 210 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 3: of many many congressional committees in the House and the 211 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:17,440 Speaker 3: Senate over the years, and I continue to explain exactly 212 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 3: what we did during this process, why we tried to 213 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 3: make sure we stay true to our intelligence responsibilities and 214 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 3: that we were not going to do anything at all 215 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,040 Speaker 3: to try to interfere in that election. And again it 216 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:31,839 Speaker 3: was a challenging time, but also one I think that 217 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 3: the people who actually worked this, both in terms of 218 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 3: trying to collect intelligence prior to the election and then 219 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 3: the ones who put together intell assessment, they really I 220 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 3: think showed the best of what the intelligence community and 221 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 3: what CIA is made of. So again I am clueless 222 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,720 Speaker 3: about what it is exactly that they may be investigating 223 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:53,359 Speaker 3: me for cluus. 224 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 1: I'm just clueus about exactly what they may be investigating me. 225 00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:00,680 Speaker 1: For you the CI director, former CIED direct come on 226 00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 1: really like for real. He also, by the way, wasn't 227 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,679 Speaker 1: done there. He wanted to go after Donald Trump as well. 228 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:09,719 Speaker 1: And he's trying to say to all parsonship, that's the 229 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:13,200 Speaker 1: same guy that weaponized the CIA to try to overthrow 230 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 1: the will of the people, knowing that what he was 231 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 1: pushing was a lie, knowing that there was no collusion 232 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:23,320 Speaker 1: between Donald Trump and Russia, and now he's using the 233 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 1: same type of line to like flip it and be like, oh, well, 234 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 1: we're just we're just you know, Donald Trump's gone rogue here. 235 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 5: What do you think will happen next? If Ratcliffe's note 236 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:41,559 Speaker 5: has been sent along to dj AS has been reported 237 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 5: as some sort of predicate to investigate you criminally. 238 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 3: I don't know. It's so said and tragic, and you know, 239 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:51,839 Speaker 3: I keep thinking, Okay, this is the authoritarian playbook. We've 240 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,719 Speaker 3: seen this play out so many times, and unfortunately, I 241 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 3: think we're seeing it play out. And a number of 242 00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:59,960 Speaker 3: academics and writers have pointed out that Carl Schmidt, who 243 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 3: was a German jurist, political philosopher and writer in the 244 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:08,800 Speaker 3: nineteen thirties. His thesis, which Nazi Germany and you know 245 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:12,720 Speaker 3: basically took up, was don't worry about doing something that 246 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 3: is ethical or principled or good or right. Do whatever 247 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 3: you can to win. Vanquish your adversaries, vanquish your enemies. 248 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 3: And unfortunately, we have seen that happening overseas. We've seen 249 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:25,560 Speaker 3: it in victor orban and Hungary, We've seen it with 250 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 3: blablak Putin, we see it in China. The places we 251 00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 3: see it also in terms of you know, some of 252 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 3: the foreign policies of being implemented, including you know, in 253 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:36,079 Speaker 3: the Middle East right now. So I really am very 254 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:39,040 Speaker 3: worried that what we're seeing now in this chapter of 255 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 3: American history is a sad deterioration of I think, the 256 00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 3: respect for the rule of law and for our system 257 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 3: of government. And if a president of the United States 258 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 3: is willing to weaponize intelligence and justice, and you know, 259 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:58,720 Speaker 3: law enforcement investigators and the people who headed these departments 260 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 3: and agencies are willing to bow to it, we really 261 00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 3: are in deep, deep trouble, which was why I think 262 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 3: so many people are worried about the direction this country 263 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,839 Speaker 3: is taken. So this whole thing about the CI note 264 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 3: and this possible referral of me and criminal investigation, I 265 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 3: think is just symptomatic of a much broader disease that 266 00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 3: we are confronting right now in terms of how our 267 00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:25,680 Speaker 3: democratic principles are being eroded and corroded as a result 268 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,920 Speaker 3: of this authoritarian march that we are witnessing every day. 269 00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 1: I love how they go back this every time he 270 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 1: realizes now he's been busted, he realizes how much trouble 271 00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:40,440 Speaker 1: he's in, he's playing dumb, and then he goes back to, well, 272 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:42,679 Speaker 1: Donald Trump is going to be a dictator and a 273 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 1: tyrant and he's no different than Vladimir Putin. And I'll 274 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,080 Speaker 1: just slander him and say how terrible he is, even 275 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 1: of the American people chose him again, right, Like, the 276 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 1: American people chose him again. And he's like, and this 277 00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 1: is just what dictators and tyrants do. And they run 278 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:00,199 Speaker 1: down this road and they're just psycho and they're and 279 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 1: you know, and I don't even know what they're investigating 280 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:02,560 Speaker 1: me for. 281 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 2: And this is just. 282 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:06,559 Speaker 1: Another one of those examples, Like I'm sorry, it makes 283 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:11,480 Speaker 1: me laugh. It makes me laugh because everything that he 284 00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:15,199 Speaker 1: is accusing Donald Trump of doing is exactly what the 285 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:19,240 Speaker 1: former FBI director James Comy and the CIA director FORMERCYIA 286 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 1: director John Brennan did, Like every single thing that they say. 287 00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 1: They weaponized the government. They went after his family, they 288 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 1: went after his friends, they went after the people that 289 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:32,760 Speaker 1: worked with him. Why did they do that. They did 290 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 1: it for one reason, leverage. They were trying to overthrow 291 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 1: the will of the people. It was a coup attempt. 292 00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 1: That is what it was, plain and simple. It was 293 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:44,840 Speaker 1: a coup attempt. 294 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 2: And so now that it's being investigated. 295 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:52,760 Speaker 1: For literally what it was, it's like there's this moment 296 00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:54,200 Speaker 1: where they're like, all right, what do I go back 297 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:54,360 Speaker 1: to it? 298 00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 2: Let's just go back to work. 299 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 1: Last time, We'll just say Donald Trump is you know, 300 00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:00,920 Speaker 1: orange Man, evil, orange Man, bad, Orange Man is the dictator. 301 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:03,320 Speaker 1: Orange Man's a tyrant. Orange Man's the worst person in 302 00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 1: the world, right, Donald Trump's worse, worse, worse, worse, worse person. 303 00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 2: In the world. 304 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:11,240 Speaker 1: And we just say that over and over and over 305 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 1: and over and over again. And if we just keep 306 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 1: saying that, then at some point maybe somebody will believe 307 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 1: and somehow believe that I'm the victim, that I'm that 308 00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 1: somehow I'm the bad guy, that I that you know, 309 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 1: or that I'm the victim and. 310 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 2: Trump's the bad guy, is the best, the better way 311 00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 2: of saying it. 312 00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 1: I don't want anybody, by the way, to go to 313 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:38,760 Speaker 1: jail because they're a Democrat. I don't want anybody to 314 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 1: go to jail because they're a partisanship. I want law 315 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:46,000 Speaker 1: and order. If John Brennan or James Comey actually broke 316 00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:47,880 Speaker 1: the law, they should be held accountable for it. When 317 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:51,240 Speaker 1: they to abuse your position of power, like the CIA 318 00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 1: director can basically do and see and has unlimited funds 319 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 1: to do and whatever they want to do. But when 320 00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:59,200 Speaker 1: they when they push propaganda on the American people the 321 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:02,120 Speaker 1: way they did to interfere with an election, and then 322 00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 1: when that didn't work, they're still like. 323 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:09,960 Speaker 2: Eh, you know, like let's just let's just start. 324 00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 1: Entrapping people, just like General Flynn. They entrapped General Flynn. 325 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 1: We all know it. 326 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 2: And so when that happens, you have to look at. 327 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:21,160 Speaker 1: This and you have to think to yourself, is there 328 00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 1: anything that these people who are the leaders of the 329 00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 1: Democratic Party. By the way, I'll say it again, the 330 00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:28,960 Speaker 1: democratic parce dead is filled with Marxist socialists and communist 331 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 1: dictators and tyrants. John Brennan's a dictator and tyrant, no 332 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 1: doubt about it. James Comey, same thing. They didn't get 333 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 1: their way, right. They couldn't alter and change an election. Okay, 334 00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:43,840 Speaker 1: they couldn't do it. They couldn't alter and they couldn't 335 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 1: change an election. So what do they do. They try 336 00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:49,600 Speaker 1: to just overthrow the will of the people. By the way, 337 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 1: they were trying to alter and change it, and they 338 00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 1: failed at it, and they still said, don't worry, we've 339 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:54,240 Speaker 1: got this. 340 00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:55,080 Speaker 2: We'll come back. 341 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 1: Don't worry, We'll still do it. Don't don't like, don't 342 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 1: don't worry, we will still do it. We got this. 343 00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:07,760 Speaker 1: Remember Peter Struck and Lisa Page I think that was 344 00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:10,200 Speaker 1: their names. Uh remember remember when they were like, hey, 345 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:12,239 Speaker 1: we're gonna stop him. Don't worry, we're gonna stop him, 346 00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:15,120 Speaker 1: referring to Trump after he got elected. And by the way, 347 00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:16,360 Speaker 1: that's exactly what they tried to do. 348 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 2: Like they did. They tried to stop him. They tried 349 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:19,960 Speaker 2: to stop. 350 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,200 Speaker 1: Like, believe them when they when they tell you what 351 00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 1: they're thinking. When those text messages came out. I'm like, yeah, 352 00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:28,920 Speaker 1: there's a deep state. There is a deep state where 353 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 1: this is actually what they believe, and they believe that 354 00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:35,560 Speaker 1: they get to play above the rules of law that 355 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:37,320 Speaker 1: you and I have to play by. Anybody else does 356 00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:38,960 Speaker 1: what these guys are doing, we'd be in prison, I 357 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,680 Speaker 1: have no doubt about it. But they think, well, I'm 358 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:43,840 Speaker 1: in charge, so I can do whatever the hell I 359 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:47,160 Speaker 1: want to do, I can overthrow our own government. 360 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:50,960 Speaker 2: Go back to Joe Biden last point on this. 361 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:53,879 Speaker 1: You have people in our government that knew he was 362 00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:56,679 Speaker 1: incapacity and they said, we don't care, just weaken at 363 00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 1: Bernie's him, and we'll run the country even though we're 364 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:02,320 Speaker 1: elected by knowing that is also a coup attempt in 365 00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 1: a very different way. 366 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 2: Never ever, ever forget that. 367 00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:11,359 Speaker 1: All right, I want to move to another subject real quick. 368 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:14,879 Speaker 1: That is also one that goes back to Democrats. Make 369 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,639 Speaker 1: it clear they don't respect our laws in this country. 370 00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:19,359 Speaker 1: It's very much what I was just talking about with 371 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:22,439 Speaker 1: the FBI, A former FBI and former CIA director, like, 372 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 1: they do not respect our laws. We are now saying, 373 00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 1: and I guess this is like the Democrats mayors unionizing 374 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 1: around the country. Uh, Chicago mayor coming out saying the 375 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:40,760 Speaker 1: city police won't cooperate with ICE. Now, you got to 376 00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:44,440 Speaker 1: ask yourself the question why would they not cooperate with ICE? 377 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:48,679 Speaker 1: It is because they love illegal immigrants. They do not 378 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 1: care about their own citizens at all. The Chicago Mayor, 379 00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:56,919 Speaker 1: Brandon Johnson getting in with the La mayor now and 380 00:18:57,040 --> 00:19:01,440 Speaker 1: said today that again, this is another example of how 381 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 1: psycho the left has become, that the Wendy City Police 382 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:10,240 Speaker 1: will not ever cooperate with immigration comstoms enforcement ICE authorities. 383 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 1: You know, again, it's uncomfortable at a time in which 384 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 1: so many working people and poor people need government to 385 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 1: show up for them, that this administration, the Trump administration, 386 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 1: has caused so much consternation division, is what Johnson said 387 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 1: at a press conference. He was responding, by the way, 388 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:30,280 Speaker 1: to a question about whether the city would use the 389 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 1: police department to shield students from federal agents conducting immigration 390 00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:38,360 Speaker 1: raids without warrants, saying, quote, look, we are a welcoming 391 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:42,120 Speaker 1: city ordinance, so you are clearly saying come here and. 392 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:42,680 Speaker 2: Break the law. 393 00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:46,840 Speaker 1: Our local police department will never, ever, will not cooperate 394 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:50,879 Speaker 1: with ICE, whatever their concertitional authority is. That is obviously 395 00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 1: relegated to the Trump administration of our sister agency. City 396 00:19:55,600 --> 00:20:00,119 Speaker 1: departments have been thoroughly briefed by a corporate council and 397 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 1: I'll pass it over to her in a second about 398 00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:04,880 Speaker 1: what they can and cannot do. 399 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 2: Now. 400 00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:09,480 Speaker 1: Look, Johnson is a Democrat, a hardcore Democrat, and the 401 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 1: murder capital of the country. He's been a fierce critic 402 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:16,040 Speaker 1: of the Republican administration and the use of ICE to 403 00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:19,160 Speaker 1: carry out immigration enforcement activities, which he says, we don't 404 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:22,919 Speaker 1: do that in Chicago. In June, by the way, the 405 00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:26,720 Speaker 1: Chicago Sometimes reported that he that he urged city residents 406 00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:32,080 Speaker 1: to rise up in this moment against ICE, saying, quote, 407 00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:35,199 Speaker 1: this is a necessary fight for all of us to 408 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 1: be able to push back. Johnson said, quote whether we 409 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 1: use the courts or whether we continue to protest and 410 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 1: raise our voices to scent matters in this moment. It's 411 00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:48,440 Speaker 1: a war on our culture. So again, we don't have 412 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:52,160 Speaker 1: American culture. We're not a nation. We are some kumbaya, 413 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:56,399 Speaker 1: some culture of lawbreakers, right, that's what he's saying we 414 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:58,520 Speaker 1: are in this country. I couldn't disagree with them more. 415 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 1: He goes on to say it's a war we are 416 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 1: on our democracy. Well, hold on, democracy is about the 417 00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:05,679 Speaker 1: rule of law. You guys are saying, we refuse to 418 00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 1: respect the rule of law, and you refuse to respect 419 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 1: constitutional law, you refuse to respect the president of the 420 00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 1: United States of America. You're making up your own rules 421 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 1: as you go. That's not a democracy, is it. He 422 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 1: goes on to say, it's a war on our humanity. 423 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 1: Tell that to the victims of illegal immigrants who have 424 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:29,399 Speaker 1: committed crimes. Tell that to the Americans that were under 425 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:30,399 Speaker 1: employed because of. 426 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:31,440 Speaker 2: The legal immigrant labor. 427 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:34,080 Speaker 1: By the way, we're witnessing a massive change right now 428 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:36,880 Speaker 1: and the number of Americans you are being hired because 429 00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:40,199 Speaker 1: there are legal immigrants that are leaving this country on 430 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:44,400 Speaker 1: their own accordance, having a huge impact for American workers. 431 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:47,440 Speaker 1: Another great example of what they don't want to tell you. 432 00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 1: He said, it's a war on our humanity. I'm counting 433 00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:56,560 Speaker 1: on all of Chicago to resist in this moment because 434 00:21:56,600 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 1: whatever particularly vulnerable group is being target today, another group 435 00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:05,639 Speaker 1: will be next. None of us are immune from this disease. Okay, 436 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:09,719 Speaker 1: so if I want law and order, I am now 437 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 1: being referred to as a disease. Now, why would he 438 00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:14,959 Speaker 1: do that? Well, because he when you have a disease, right, 439 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:16,359 Speaker 1: what do you do? You get rid of it? You 440 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:20,240 Speaker 1: exterminate it. That's very much how Adolf Hitler was talking 441 00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:22,720 Speaker 1: back in the day about the Jews. Never forget right, 442 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 1: they were a disease that must be we must get 443 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:26,240 Speaker 1: rid of. 444 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:29,080 Speaker 2: Well, now the Chicago mayor. 445 00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 1: Is referring to Trump supporters the same way that Adolf 446 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 1: Hitler referred to the Jews. It's pretty impressive for the 447 00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 1: Chicago mayor. Chicago Mayor is also now called on the 448 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 1: House Speaker Mike Johnson to quote speak up about ICE 449 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:45,520 Speaker 1: mass deportation operations, which he is also describing ready for 450 00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 1: this as terrorism. So he's defending the people in the 451 00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:55,680 Speaker 1: MS thirteen gangs and the gang bangers and the drug dealers, 452 00:22:57,040 --> 00:23:01,200 Speaker 1: the MS thirteen guys, And he's saying, because we want 453 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 1: law and order, and because ICE is coming in and 454 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:06,480 Speaker 1: trying to restore law and order and get rid of 455 00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:11,359 Speaker 1: the worst among us, especially in the legal immigrant community, 456 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:15,440 Speaker 1: we are now terrists. And if you're in favor of this, 457 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:19,719 Speaker 1: you are a terrorist. This is terrorism. According to the 458 00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:21,680 Speaker 1: New York Post. By the way, more than fifty one 459 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:24,920 Speaker 1: thousand legal immigrants have made their way to Chicago from 460 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:29,400 Speaker 1: the southern border since August thirty first of last year. 461 00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 1: So just to put it in perspective, how many people 462 00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:35,439 Speaker 1: are going to Chicago and last week Trump's borders are 463 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,960 Speaker 1: Tom Homan appeared on Fox News where he slammed the 464 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:43,680 Speaker 1: new app called ice Block that is reportedly being used 465 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:48,160 Speaker 1: to alert people of sightings of ICE agents. Homan said, 466 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 1: quote assault ICE against ICE agents that were five hundred percent. 467 00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:55,120 Speaker 1: Now you've got an app that's going to tell where 468 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:57,879 Speaker 1: the ICE operations are going, to tell me amount of 469 00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:01,639 Speaker 1: time before the ICE agents are ambush by some nut 470 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:07,560 Speaker 1: like what happened in La throwing them out, these molotov cocktails, 471 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 1: throwing bricks at these officers. This is just disgusting at 472 00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:14,639 Speaker 1: every level. Now, the scary part about what I just 473 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:17,160 Speaker 1: read for you is what he had to say, and 474 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 1: he did predict the future. 475 00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:20,320 Speaker 2: How do we know this? 476 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,960 Speaker 1: There has been a rise in threats which now being 477 00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:28,320 Speaker 1: reported against federal law enforcement.

You look at that report and you 549 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:24,720 Speaker 1: listen to it, I think it's pretty clear this is 550 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 1: a coordinated effort nationwide by the radical left to go 551 00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:30,640 Speaker 1: after ICE agents to make them feel unsafe. 552 00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:34,240 Speaker 2: This is happening on a regular basis. 553 00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:37,760 Speaker 1: Now we are seeing more and more headlines of these 554 00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 1: ICE agents that are being targeted and attacked. And I 555 00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 1: think this is another example of how the left is 556 00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 1: willing to use violence at all costs to try to 557 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:52,480 Speaker 1: stop things they don't like. They're used to this type 558 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:54,960 Speaker 1: of violence. They got used to it with the Summer 559 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 1: of Rage.

Hey we don't like what's 562 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:05,360 Speaker 1: happening with icelests, go and attack the facilities where the 563 00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:08,880 Speaker 1: ICE agents go. Let's make people be afraid to do 564 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 1: their jobs. And by the way, Democratic leadership, I'm going 565 00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 1: to leave you with this thought. Notice how quiet they 566 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:19,720 Speaker 1: are on this. The leadership of the Democratic Party is 567 00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:21,200 Speaker 1: not out there condemning these attacks. 568 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:26,800 Speaker 2: They're saying nothing.
