1
00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:16,480
Speaker 1: You are entering the freedom hunt. Michael Cohen gets sentenced

2
00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:21,360
Speaker 1: to prison and General Flynn is asking for no prison.

3
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:25,239
Speaker 1: We will break down how these deep state machinations are

4
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:28,400
Speaker 1: playing out against Trump's inner circle. Also, will there be

5
00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:31,920
Speaker 1: a shutdown or not? Will we get a wall or not?

6
00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:33,640
Speaker 1: Going to get into all that, I'm more coming up

7
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:37,159
Speaker 1: on the buck Sexton Show. This is the buck Sexton

8

Speaker 1: really matters with actionable intelligence. Make no mistake American, You're

Speaker 1: a great American. Again, the buck Sexton Show begins as

11
00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:01,920
Speaker 1: Welcome to the buck Sexton Show. Everybody, quite a day

12
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:08,680
Speaker 1: to day, quite a day. Indeed, we have more information

13
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 1: about General Flynn and what happened to him. And we

14
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:18,760
Speaker 1: also have the at least for now final results in

15
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 1: of the whole Cohen Michael Cohen trial, right, the chief

16
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 1: advisor to President, chief legal advisor President Trump in his

17
00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:34,240
Speaker 1: private life for many years. But the Flynn, the Flynn

18
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 1: request for leniency today which was followed with the court.

19
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:39,840
Speaker 1: Does a MAMO read through it today? And we'll also

20
00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:41,760
Speaker 1: be joined by Andy McCarthy later to work through some

21
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 1: of us. I mean, this is this is appalling It's

22
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:53,120
Speaker 1: disgusting what these Hillary Clinton loving leftist deep state petty

23
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 1: tyrants have done here to a good man who didn't

24
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 1: service country for like a day here or there, thirty

25
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 1: years multiple combat zone deployments against all odds, is an

26
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:12,040
Speaker 1: early friend to President Trump in the campaign, joins with

27
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:15,680
Speaker 1: Trump and then becomes the National Security advisor, and they

28
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 1: just can't take it, they can't accept it, so they

29
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:24,520
Speaker 1: decide to go after him. I remember General Flynn went

30
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,080
Speaker 1: and he had his show, I mean his book, Field

31
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 1: of Fight. We had him on this show early on

32
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,600
Speaker 1: the campaign, but people didn't think that the Trump administration

33
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 1: was ever going to be a thing. He was right

34
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:37,240
Speaker 1: there alongside the president and that's where and he gave

35
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 1: the president national security credibility, which the left just hated.

36
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:44,799
Speaker 1: And the establishment, you know, and the kind of centrist

37
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 1: quasi republican democrats, you know, people of the kind of

38
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,560
Speaker 1: commist ilk if you will, those who have claimed to

39
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:56,040
Speaker 1: be Republicans but really are no meaningful way conservative or

40
00:02:56,120 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 1: limited government constitutionalists. They're really just establishment terians. They hated Flynn,

41
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 1: and now we see what they did. Now we have

42
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 1: a better sense of just how it is that they

43
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:15,919
Speaker 1: set him up. Make no mistake about it. This was

44
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 1: a setup, okay. This was they intended. They intended to

45
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 1: get the result they did, which was a criminal prosecution

46
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 1: of the incoming national security advisor. Right away. This is

47
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:32,919
Speaker 1: from the court document from Flynn's legal team, and none

48
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 1: of these facts are in dispute. None of this is

49
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 1: me just guessing, spitballing. No, no, this is a matter

50
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:47,000
Speaker 1: of record. Here is what they did to this American

51
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 1: patriot as payback for being a part of the movement

52
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 1: that stopped Hillary Clinton from inflicting herself that just corrupt

53
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 1: lying roneist from inflicting herself upon us for another eight years.

54
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,760
Speaker 1: This is from the document file in court today. Quote

55
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 1: at twelve thirty five pm. On January twenty four, twenty seventeen,

56
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:18,920
Speaker 1: the first Tuesday after the presidential inauguration, General Flynn received

57
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 1: a phone call from then the Director of the FBI,

58
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 1: Andrew McCabe, on a secure phone in his office in

59
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 1: the West Wing. General Flynn had for many years been

60
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:31,279
Speaker 1: accustomed to working cooperation with the FBI on matters of

61
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 1: national security. He and mister McCabe briefly discussed a security

62
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 1: training session the FBI had recently conducted at the White

63
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 1: House before mister McCabe, by his own account, stated that

64
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:45,919
Speaker 1: he quote felt that we needed to have two of

65
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:49,360
Speaker 1: our agents sit down with General Flynn to talk about

66
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 1: his communications with Russian representatives. This was a conversation among

67
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:00,560
Speaker 1: government peers. This was supposed to be people on the

68
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:04,279
Speaker 1: same team talking, and now we don't have a transcript

69
00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 1: of what McCabe. Oh, by the way, a multiple liar

70
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:12,279
Speaker 1: under oath and therefore should be multiple felon who wants

71
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:14,719
Speaker 1: to guess whether they'll be criminal charmed is filed against

72
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:20,120
Speaker 1: McCabe by the DOJ. I'm guessing no. But he lied.

73
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:24,320
Speaker 1: He liked three times. According to Inspector General. He lied

74
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 1: under penalty of perjury. Why isn't McCabe, Oh, that's right,

75
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 1: McCabe won't get prosecuted because this is all about getting Trump.

76
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:37,719
Speaker 1: This is a disgrace. It's disgusting what these people are

77
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:41,599
Speaker 1: doing to this administration and by extension, to all of

78
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:44,599
Speaker 1: the people who voted for this administration, who believe in

79
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 1: it and hope for the best for our country. As

80
00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 1: a result of Donald Trump's win over Shillary Clinton, General

81
00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,840
Speaker 1: Flynn was made to believe that he was just having

82
00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 1: a normal casual talk as the National Security Advisor with

83
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 1: subordinate federal employees. I'm sure McCabe said something to belong. Yeah,

84
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:09,840
Speaker 1: you know, there's this thing about you and the ambassador.

85
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 1: Let's you know, let's just let's just sit and just

86
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,039
Speaker 1: you know, our guys just wanted we just need to

87
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 1: go on the record with that. Just tell us some

88
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:17,800
Speaker 1: of the stuff and you know, no big deal, no

89
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:22,800
Speaker 1: big whoop. Okay, mister mccab's this goes back now of

90
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: the court documents. Mister McCabe's account states quote, I explained

91
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:30,480
Speaker 1: that I thought the quickest way to get this done

92
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:33,839
Speaker 1: was to have a conversation between General Flynn and the

93
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 1: agents only. I further stated that if Lieutenant General Flynn

94
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:40,240
Speaker 1: wished to include anyone else in the meeting, like the

95
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 1: White House Counsel, for instance, that I would need to

96
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 1: involve the Department of Justice. General Flynn stated that this

97
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:50,160
Speaker 1: would not be necessary and agreed to meet with agents

98
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:58,599
Speaker 1: without any additional participants. So KG McCabe here says, look,

99
00:06:58,600 --> 00:06:59,840
Speaker 1: you know, we're just we're just gonna send over a

100
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:01,600
Speaker 1: guys are gonna talk to you about this. Oh yeah,

101
00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:03,600
Speaker 1: that training we did last week wasn't that great? You're

102
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:06,560
Speaker 1: so great, Gennial Flynn. You know, is we gotta have

103
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:09,119
Speaker 1: you know, our kids should go, should you know, get together.

104
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:11,240
Speaker 1: We should play little baseball in the weekend. Sometimes soon

105
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 1: we're just gonna send over a couple of FBI guys.

106
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:14,280
Speaker 1: They just kind of talk to you about this thing.

107
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:16,120
Speaker 1: Nobody dealing. Oh no, no no, you don't want to have

108
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,080
Speaker 1: lawyers there, man, that's gonna make it because then I

109
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:19,680
Speaker 1: gotta send the lawyers. And you know, we're just gonna

110
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:21,680
Speaker 1: have a talk. It's fine, don't worry about it. It'll

111
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 1: be over in five minutes. Now you can say, well,

112
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:29,559
Speaker 1: Buck Flynn just shouldn't have Flint shouldn't lie. He should

113
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:31,200
Speaker 1: know he should. First of all, Flynn's not a law

114
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 1: enforcement guy. Very different s guilty. He's a military man.

115
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 1: He's about facing down our enemies on the battlefield and

116
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:43,880
Speaker 1: you know, our side versus their side. He's not used to,

117
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 1: you know what goes on here with these FBI types.

118
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:52,280
Speaker 1: He's not somebody who's dealing with the tools of law

119
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 1: enforcement that often involve dissembling, lying, presenting yourself under false pretenses.

120
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 1: And this is all set up. Remember he's not accused

121
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:07,640
Speaker 1: of treason. He's not accused of some serious crime. The

122
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:11,040
Speaker 1: pretext for this need to talk to him in the

123
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 1: first place is that little Resistance Payne sally Yates with

124
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:21,320
Speaker 1: their whole all the logan acting maybe the Russians can

125
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,880
Speaker 1: can blackmail him because he lied about the conversation with

126
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:27,760
Speaker 1: the ambassador, which they can't blackmail him over that. He'd say, Yeah,

127
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 1: I misremembered that. Their whole premise here is bull. It's bull.

128
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:38,120
Speaker 1: They're gonna blackmail. I'm up. You'd better tell you better

129
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:40,599
Speaker 1: give us all the secret nuclear colds or else we

130
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 1: are growing to tell people that you you lied about

131
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:47,080
Speaker 1: your conversation about non criminal activity with the Kisel. Yet,

132
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:49,240
Speaker 1: he'd be like, all right, I just would say that

133
00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:50,959
Speaker 1: I you know, I misremembered that it was a conversation

134
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 1: on the phone. I didn't remember. It's no big deal.

135
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 1: I didn't send uh, you know, I didn't think it

136
00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 1: was it was going to be any issue. That's that's

137
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 1: not blackmailable, that's not blockmailable. It's just not. But so

138
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,440
Speaker 1: why and the DJ would know that, So why would

139
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 1: they say it was They're worried up blockmail. They need

140
00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 1: in an excuse this was all about the excuse to

141
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 1: put Flynn in a situation where they could get him.

142
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 1: They don't do You don't do this too. He wasn't,

143
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:24,240
Speaker 1: by the way, Oh let me let me get into

144
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:27,200
Speaker 1: the details here. But you know this isn't done within

145
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 1: the federal government to each other. Whenever, I mean, I

146
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 1: remember I had to sit through a couple of hearings

147
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,440
Speaker 1: for a few different things, and MYPD side, CIA side,

148
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 1: and whenever there was this, we got the security folks,

149
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:41,720
Speaker 1: internal watchdog folks talking to your Look, you were told,

150
00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:45,920
Speaker 1: you were told. You know, they're not. They don't send

151
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,080
Speaker 1: some guy undercover into your office to talk to you

152
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:49,959
Speaker 1: with the water cooler and try to find out, you know,

153
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,319
Speaker 1: are you are you committing like time and attendance fraud

154
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:56,319
Speaker 1: or something that that's not how they do this. All right,

155
00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 1: more into the so so, McCabe obviously tried to get

156
00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:04,280
Speaker 1: the situation to be exactly what it was, which was

157
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:10,120
Speaker 1: that he sent struck McCabe a liar and a Hillary partisan,

158
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 1: Struck an anti Trump lunatic. These are the two people

159
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:15,959
Speaker 1: that are involved in this so far, and some other

160
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:19,240
Speaker 1: FBI agent that's not yet really named or known. But

161
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 1: he said Struck, the anti Trump freak, to go and

162
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:30,680
Speaker 1: talk to Flynn, made sure that there was no counsel

163
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,120
Speaker 1: in the room with him whatsoever. You know how many

164
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:35,560
Speaker 1: you know how many lawyers when Struck, Oh, that's right.

165
00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 1: Another time when he's at the nexus here, what does

166
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 1: the FBI only have four people? Because when you look

167
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 1: at Hillary and you look at Trump and the key

168
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:47,200
Speaker 1: points here in these investigations, there's only a few people

169
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:52,560
Speaker 1: that seem to matter, and they're anti Trump pro Hillary maniacs.

170
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:59,439
Speaker 1: What a shock. When Struck interviewed Hillary about her emails,

171
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 1: she had nine lawyers at my account in the room. Okay,

172
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:10,320
Speaker 1: she had an army of lawyers with her. She was

173
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:13,120
Speaker 1: allowed to have Cheryl Mills, who was her white i

174
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:16,960
Speaker 1: mean her State department chief of staff, in the room

175
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 1: with her, coordinating with her as her lawyer. Meanwhile, she's

176
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:24,880
Speaker 1: actually a part of the she should be a part,

177
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:27,800
Speaker 1: she should be a target of the investigation. They're treating

178
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 1: her like she's Hillary's lawyer. They bent over backwards to

179
00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:35,319
Speaker 1: make sure that Hillary would have no problems, and they

180
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:38,320
Speaker 1: went in the complete opposite direction with Flynn and with

181
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:40,120
Speaker 1: everybody associated with the Trump That much is Claire but

182
00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:43,520
Speaker 1: hearing more about the details here that came out. This

183
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:47,240
Speaker 1: all just came out today in the Flynn in the

184
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:52,679
Speaker 1: Flynn sentencing less than two hours later, this is after

185
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,719
Speaker 1: the meeting FBI Deputy Assistant Director Peter Struck and a

186
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 1: second I'm sorry, this is right before the meeting, and

187
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 1: a second FBI agent arrived at the White House to

188
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 1: interview General Flynn. By the agent's account, General Flynn was

189
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:07,560
Speaker 1: relaxed and jocular and offered to give the agents a

190
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 1: little tour of the area around his West Wing office.

191
00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:13,240
Speaker 1: The agents did not provide General Flynn with a warning

192
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:16,040
Speaker 1: of the penalties for making a false statement under eighteen

193
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:21,280
Speaker 1: USC one zero zero one, before, during, or after the interview.

194
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,959
Speaker 1: Prior to the FBI's interview of General Flynn, mister McCabe

195
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:28,000
Speaker 1: and other FBI officials decided the agents would not warn

196
00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:30,880
Speaker 1: Flynn that it was a cry to lie during an

197
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:34,840
Speaker 1: FBI interview because they wanted Flynn to be relaxed and

198
00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:37,760
Speaker 1: they were concerned that giving the warnings might adversely affect

199
00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:41,679
Speaker 1: the rapport. One of the agents reported, yeah, they were

200
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 1: setting him up before the interview. FBI officials also had

201
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:48,880
Speaker 1: to decide that if Flynn said he did not remember

202
00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:51,559
Speaker 1: something they knew he said. They would use the exact

203
00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 1: words Flynn used to try to refresh his recollection. If

204
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:57,680
Speaker 1: Flynn still would not confirm what he said, they would

205
00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:00,280
Speaker 1: confront him or talk him through it. One of the

206
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:03,040
Speaker 1: agent's reported that General Flynn was unguarded during the interview

207
00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:09,320
Speaker 1: and clearly saw the FBI agents as allies. They had

208
00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:15,240
Speaker 1: the transcript. They had the transcript of what comes from

209
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:21,000
Speaker 1: counterintelligence collection that was leaked to the press, probably by

210
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,920
Speaker 1: one of these names we already know in this whole debacle,

211
00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:30,800
Speaker 1: one of these anti Trump deep state DOJ lunatics, and

212
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:36,360
Speaker 1: then they use information from a counterintelligence investigation to try

213
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:40,360
Speaker 1: and trap the incoming national security advisor, speaking to him

214
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:46,920
Speaker 1: under at least softened, if not false pretenses. Why would

215
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:50,840
Speaker 1: Why would if McCabe had any interest at all, any

216
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 1: interest at all in trying to protect a decorated war

217
00:13:54,920 --> 00:14:02,280
Speaker 1: hero and veterans career and reputation and life. Because Flynn's

218
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:07,439
Speaker 1: life is being ruined by this. McCabe is a decade

219
00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:09,800
Speaker 1: long FBI guy. He would know. Of course, you have

220
00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,600
Speaker 1: a lawyer in the room. Of course you have a

221
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:19,080
Speaker 1: lawyer in the room. McCabe set him up. McCabe set

222
00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:23,560
Speaker 1: him up because him and his wife wanted Hillary to win,

223
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:28,280
Speaker 1: and Struck and these other little petty tyrants from within

224
00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:30,600
Speaker 1: the federal bureaucracy. They think that they're setting it all

225
00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:35,560
Speaker 1: right by stopping Trump, by taking down his people, but

226
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 1: in the process, you know, they've shown themselves to be dishonorable.

227
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:46,520
Speaker 1: These people have no honor. A person with honor would

228
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:49,400
Speaker 1: not be able to do and as senior FBI officer,

229
00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:52,240
Speaker 1: would not be able to set up General Flynn the

230
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:58,600
Speaker 1: way they did. These individuals Struck McCabe and others involved

231
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:02,480
Speaker 1: in this, Yates, comey, the whole crew. They are a

232
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:05,440
Speaker 1: disgrace to this country, and along with Brennan, they have

233
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:10,000
Speaker 1: disgraced law enforcement, the intelligence community. I don't even feel

234
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 1: as proud of my intelligence community service as I used to,

235
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:15,280
Speaker 1: because now everybody realized that these places are run by maniacs,

236
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:24,760
Speaker 1: by left wing collectivist tyrants. We'll have more on Flynn

237
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:26,880
Speaker 1: with Andy McCarthy. You know, I'll put all my theories,

238
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 1: all my thoughts on this to the test with Andy,

239
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,240
Speaker 1: will ask what he thinks about this. He's always very

240
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:32,880
Speaker 1: fair minded, he was, He said, Okay, let's see what

241
00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:35,000
Speaker 1: the Special Council does in the beginning. Never forget that

242
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:37,160
Speaker 1: Andy used to come on this show and he was

243
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:39,360
Speaker 1: willing to give them a fair shot. And now he's

244
00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:42,240
Speaker 1: about as a pall as I am. And he worked

245
00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 1: in the Southern District of New York for almost thirty years,

246
00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:49,520
Speaker 1: and he used to tell me he was a hard prosecutor.

247
00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 1: You did not want to get Andy if you were guilty.

248
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:54,080
Speaker 1: He's told me that many times. We'll talk about the

249
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:57,280
Speaker 1: con sentencing today, tell you how much time he got

250
00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:58,720
Speaker 1: in case you don't know, and what we can make

251
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:00,840
Speaker 1: of that. And then we got the border and the

252
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 1: shutdown and show his jam. So stay right there, team,

253
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 1: I'll be back. And I will also note, with great irony,

254
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:15,520
Speaker 1: Michael Cohen well report to federal prison exactly one year

255
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:19,880
Speaker 1: after we filed the case on behalf of Stormy Daniels.

256
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:26,240
Speaker 1: Michael Cohen was sentenced today. Donald Trump is next. That's

257
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 1: right left wing hero Avanati having a let's taking a

258
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:35,280
Speaker 1: little victory lap there while while Cohen's wife and children

259
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:38,160
Speaker 1: are shattered and crying, you know, because remember Cohen didn't

260
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,720
Speaker 1: murder anyone, he didn't kidnap anyone. He didn't you know,

261
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 1: he didn't bludgeon anyone, didn't steal from anyone, lying, paperwork fraud,

262
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,920
Speaker 1: tax fraud, that's basic. That's basically what he's guilty of.

263
00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:53,080
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that's okay, but I don't think you

264
00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:56,280
Speaker 1: have to, you know, hide, hide the women and children, folks.

265
00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:59,160
Speaker 1: You know, Michael Cohen's out and about, Oh no, what

266
00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:02,480
Speaker 1: are we gonna do? Avanati? By the way, wasn't he

267
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:06,720
Speaker 1: accused of felony domestic violence recently? Yeah? That guy also

268
00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:11,400
Speaker 1: the one who came forward with the incredibly fraudulent claims

269
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:14,240
Speaker 1: of the third accuser, Julie Sweatneck, who was just a huge,

270
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:18,680
Speaker 1: crazy liar going after Brett Kavanaugh. That's right, she was

271
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:20,960
Speaker 1: a liar, isn't it? Isn't it good to just be

272
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:23,119
Speaker 1: able to say what's true? Doesn't it feel nice to

273
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 1: hear what's true? Oh? Are you calling her? Yes? She

274
00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:31,119
Speaker 1: was a liar? Yes, Christine blasi Ford either delusional or

275
00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:37,520
Speaker 1: a liar. Michael Cohen saying that or Michael Cohen rather

276
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:40,720
Speaker 1: got got three years three years, which is, you know,

277
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:42,959
Speaker 1: thirty six months at the pretty low end of things here.

278
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:47,680
Speaker 1: People are saying that maybe he'll maybe he'll even have

279
00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:49,960
Speaker 1: more information for the Special Counsel. They're all hope, hope,

280
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:53,960
Speaker 1: hoping there's more information for the Special Counsel. I just

281
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,080
Speaker 1: know that Muller's trying to drag this thing out as

282
00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:58,560
Speaker 1: long as possible. He at least has to wait until

283
00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 1: the new Congress comes. And this is my thinking because

284
00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,560
Speaker 1: because then people will forget about. When you get Pelosi

285
00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:06,760
Speaker 1: and all the crazy Dems going after Trump and everybody

286
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:09,280
Speaker 1: around him with subpoenas, then Muller can That's when Muller

287
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,440
Speaker 1: can wind it down. Not gonna wind it down before then,

288
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:14,920
Speaker 1: not gonna wind it down before the end of January,

289
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:16,959
Speaker 1: and probably not even for a month or two into it,

290
00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:19,679
Speaker 1: because he's gonna wait until the Democrats, you know, then

291
00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:21,560
Speaker 1: they're the check on Trump. That's the way this is

292
00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:23,880
Speaker 1: going to be talked about. He doesn't have the goods,

293
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:26,560
Speaker 1: he doesn't have collusion. We all know it. This whole

294
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:28,640
Speaker 1: thing is I'd just call it a farce, but it's

295
00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:33,520
Speaker 1: nothing funny about it. It's really just dangerous, destructive. Why

296
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:36,359
Speaker 1: did Trump have a lawyer like Cohen near him? You know,

297
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:39,520
Speaker 1: he liked the guy, and look, Colin was clearly a

298
00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:44,040
Speaker 1: liability but I can understand personal personal loyalties a liability

299
00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:46,960
Speaker 1: in my own life. Sometimes it's it's a thing that

300
00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 1: you gotta deal with. So what really happened with General Flynt?

301
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 1: Why is he now in a position after decades of

302
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:58,640
Speaker 1: serving his country, after being in multiple combat zones, after

303
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:02,440
Speaker 1: running the Defense Intelligent saying she incoming natural security advisor,

304
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:07,040
Speaker 1: and now he's begging, essentially a judge not to send

305
00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:08,959
Speaker 1: him to prison. What really went down here? We've got

306
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:12,359
Speaker 1: somebody who can look between the lines and through the

307
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,359
Speaker 1: lines and tell you exactly what's happening here. Andy McCarthy

308
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:17,920
Speaker 1: is with us now Scores, a Fox News contributor, also

309
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:21,160
Speaker 1: of National Review, where he's doing a lot of great writing. Andy.

310
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:25,760
Speaker 1: Thanks for coming back. Andy, you know there's so much.

311
00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 1: Let me just give the floor to you first, because

312
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:32,119
Speaker 1: I have some specifics about the Flynn sentencing request memo

313
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:34,040
Speaker 1: that's out there. I read through. I read through it

314
00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:35,520
Speaker 1: today up to the point where it was all the

315
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:37,320
Speaker 1: letters of people that are saying he's a great guy.

316
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:39,560
Speaker 1: Because okay, he's a great guy. But there were some

317
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:45,480
Speaker 1: interesting takeaways. What was your biggest takeaway? Well, obviously, one

318
00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:47,879
Speaker 1: of the things that I've been complaining about since the

319
00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:52,720
Speaker 1: beginning of the Flynn investigation is what was the basis

320
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,879
Speaker 1: for investigating him? And I think what we saw was

321
00:19:55,920 --> 00:20:00,000
Speaker 1: that there was not only you know, no real basis

322
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:03,720
Speaker 1: for an investigation. In fact, when the Senate or I'm sorry,

323
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:06,720
Speaker 1: the House Intelligence Committee looked at this, they asked a

324
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:09,560
Speaker 1: bunch of different witnesses, I think three or four different witnesses,

325
00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:12,960
Speaker 1: what was to predicate for the Flynn investigation. They got

326
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:16,359
Speaker 1: three or four different answers. Nobody can nobody can seem

327
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:20,479
Speaker 1: to give a good reason for it, and that I

328
00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 1: think shows in the way they treated him. But at

329
00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:29,479
Speaker 1: the beginning, by basically deciding that they were going to

330
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:32,919
Speaker 1: orchestrate an interview that would have been in pursuit of

331
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:37,640
Speaker 1: a criminal investigation without a crime, but try to make

332
00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:41,760
Speaker 1: him think it wasn't a criminal interview. It was just

333
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:44,960
Speaker 1: going to be him talking to a couple of veteran agents,

334
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:49,600
Speaker 1: no problem, just the basic information thing to clear up

335
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:54,040
Speaker 1: a few things about Russia. And he was obviously discouraged

336
00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 1: even from involving White House lawyers, let alone his own lawyers.

337
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:02,560
Speaker 1: And it's a real departure from the FBI's normal procedures.

338
00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:06,360
Speaker 1: Where when they're going to conduct the criminal investigation, everybody

339
00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:08,960
Speaker 1: acts on the up and up, and they tell the

340
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:13,199
Speaker 1: person they're in interviewing, here's the reason why we're talking

341
00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:15,800
Speaker 1: to you today, that it's a criminal investigation. They make

342
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:19,160
Speaker 1: it clear to him that, you know, among other things,

343
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:22,720
Speaker 1: he's got a right to talk to council and to

344
00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 1: have somebody else's presence at the interview. That's pretty standards fair.

345
00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:29,760
Speaker 1: But here they essentially, as I see it, discourage him

346
00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:34,199
Speaker 1: from having any help at the interview. And is it

347
00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 1: fair in your estimation to say, and this is a

348
00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:39,760
Speaker 1: conclusion that I've drawn in this, but now I feel

349
00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:41,239
Speaker 1: more strongly about it. But I want to know if

350
00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:43,880
Speaker 1: I'm getting ahead of where this is that if Sally

351
00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:48,920
Speaker 1: Yates helped push this along at DJ under the Logan

352
00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:53,680
Speaker 1: Act theory, that that's just acting in bad faith. Yeah,

353
00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 1: I agree with that. I think fuck that. As I've

354
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:01,240
Speaker 1: said all along, the Logan Act is not only utimate

355
00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:05,520
Speaker 1: reason to open a criminal investigation against anyone because they

356
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:08,640
Speaker 1: don't prosecute it. It's been on the books for more

357
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:12,080
Speaker 1: than two centuries. It's never been successfully used in a

358
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:14,920
Speaker 1: criminal prosecution. But if you're going to dust it off

359
00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:18,480
Speaker 1: and try to use it despite all the constitutional objections

360
00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:21,080
Speaker 1: to it. The place not to use it, and let's

361
00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:24,359
Speaker 1: make sure our listeners know the Logan Act purports to

362
00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:30,560
Speaker 1: make it basically illegal for American citizens to involve themselves

363
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:35,600
Speaker 1: in foreign relations without the government's permission. The one place

364
00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:38,760
Speaker 1: that you wouldn't want to invoke it if you were

365
00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:41,760
Speaker 1: going to, in a novel way invoke it, would be

366
00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:47,159
Speaker 1: a situation where you have a transition official for an

367
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:51,159
Speaker 1: incoming administration who's not only the high transition official, but

368
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:56,159
Speaker 1: is actually the designated incoming National security advisor whose sub

369
00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:59,639
Speaker 1: is to deal with foreign governments, among other things. And

370
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:01,919
Speaker 1: now you're going to say it's illegal for him to

371
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:06,320
Speaker 1: be having contacts with foreign portance. That's insane. It is

372
00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:08,959
Speaker 1: insane and that and we're at the insanity level here,

373
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:10,719
Speaker 1: which is I think so important for everybody to know.

374
00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:14,679
Speaker 1: And with more facts, I would note this whole effort

375
00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:17,400
Speaker 1: to get Flynn looks even worse. There's been nothing ever

376
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:20,639
Speaker 1: since they brought this charge that makes me think, oh wow,

377
00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:23,680
Speaker 1: maybe maybe Flynn, you know, really did do something here

378
00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:27,159
Speaker 1: that was egregious instead of misrememory. You know, Andy, A

379
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:29,320
Speaker 1: question I have for you. You know, so when I

380
00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,880
Speaker 1: was in the CIA, if I lied to somebody else

381
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:35,080
Speaker 1: in the CIA, as far as I knew, I probably

382
00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:38,600
Speaker 1: wasn't going to be guilty of of of a crime. Right,

383
00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:40,280
Speaker 1: So if I lied to one of my colleagues when

384
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,040
Speaker 1: about some issue of work, Um, you know, if I

385
00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:44,920
Speaker 1: said I told the President this, and I actually didn't

386
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:47,000
Speaker 1: tell the President this, and they're not gonna they're not

387
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:49,200
Speaker 1: gonna jam me up for that. How do they draw

388
00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:52,280
Speaker 1: this line? You know, when when are you in jeopardy

389
00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:55,119
Speaker 1: speaking to a federal And I wasn't law enforcement obviously

390
00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:58,919
Speaker 1: in that capacity, But when when do you actually have

391
00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:01,879
Speaker 1: that jeopardy in place? Because what it sounds like to

392
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:04,280
Speaker 1: me is that they made it seem like Flynn was

393
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:06,879
Speaker 1: talking as an FBI guys to just set something straight,

394
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 1: and so he thought he was talking to colleagues. Yeah,

395
00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:14,399
Speaker 1: that's exactly right, And in fact, it's in some ways

396
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:17,720
Speaker 1: worse than that, Buck, because this is if I'm remembering right,

397
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:19,439
Speaker 1: this is like the third or fourth day on the

398
00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:24,040
Speaker 1: job for Flynn. Yep, the first Tuesday after the transition, right,

399
00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:28,560
Speaker 1: So he's having the you know, he's having multiple meetings

400
00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:32,520
Speaker 1: as the new national security advisor. So who does he

401
00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 1: talks the deputy FBI director who wants to send over

402
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:39,080
Speaker 1: the bureau's top counter FB and I Jagen. You know,

403
00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:41,440
Speaker 1: he had every reason to think that this is a normal,

404
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:45,720
Speaker 1: you know, at that kind of level of government meeting,

405
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:48,720
Speaker 1: which was probably one of twenty he had that day

406
00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:53,239
Speaker 1: on those kinds of topic. So again, I think, you know,

407
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:57,080
Speaker 1: the big deal here is if you want to have

408
00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:00,719
Speaker 1: a criminal investigation on Flynn, then have a criminal investigation

409
00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:02,680
Speaker 1: on Flynn, but at least go in the front door,

410
00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:06,520
Speaker 1: have everybody's eyes open, tell them what it's about, and

411
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:11,200
Speaker 1: you know, treat them like he's a normal investigative subject. Instead,

412
00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:16,560
Speaker 1: they traded on the relationship that you would think high

413
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:21,120
Speaker 1: ranking national security officials would have with each other, except

414
00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:25,440
Speaker 1: Flynn's thinking he's talking to colleagues and they're thinking they're

415
00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:29,320
Speaker 1: conducting a criminal investigation and doing an interview that could

416
00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:32,120
Speaker 1: put him in jeopardy. And Buck, if I could say

417
00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:35,200
Speaker 1: one other thing about what's gone on with Flynn, which

418
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:40,600
Speaker 1: I think maybe the most outrageous of all. Flynn is

419
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:45,800
Speaker 1: a first offender who's looking at a fairly trivial process

420
00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:50,080
Speaker 1: crime for which for anybody the sentencing guidelines would be

421
00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:53,639
Speaker 1: zero to six months. But on the positive side of

422
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:58,199
Speaker 1: the ledger for him, he's a heroic combat veteran of

423
00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:03,000
Speaker 1: the United States who spent thirty years rendering courageous service

424
00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:06,359
Speaker 1: to this country. And as a result, there's not a

425
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:09,800
Speaker 1: federal judge in America who was ever going to put

426
00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:14,600
Speaker 1: Mike Flynn in jail if Mula had done nothing. Flynn

427
00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:17,399
Speaker 1: gets a no jail sentence. And the reason I point

428
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:21,600
Speaker 1: that out is, what do you see happen here? Mullah

429
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:26,800
Speaker 1: files emotion unto the serencing guidelines, asking the judge not

430
00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,679
Speaker 1: to impose jail time, that is to say, asking the

431
00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:33,199
Speaker 1: judge to do what the judge is going to do anyway.

432
00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:37,240
Speaker 1: So when it happens inevitably, what is the story going

433
00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:40,280
Speaker 1: to be. It's not. The story is going to be

434
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:43,040
Speaker 1: that Flynn got a no jail sentence because of the

435
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:49,680
Speaker 1: valuable cooperation that he gave to Mula's investigation. Oh, there

436
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:52,880
Speaker 1: must be some collusion here. And they look at Mueller's

437
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:56,359
Speaker 1: filing and they see it's half rejected, and they say, oh,

438
00:26:56,400 --> 00:27:00,000
Speaker 1: this must be the expulsive stuff that he gave him

439
00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:03,399
Speaker 1: in order to get the get the you know, the

440
00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:06,840
Speaker 1: sentencing consideration. In the meantime, the guy wasn't going to

441
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:09,720
Speaker 1: get any jail time in the first place. Yeah, it's

442
00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:12,160
Speaker 1: it's it's absurd. I mean, you know, Andy, there there's

443
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:14,440
Speaker 1: so much here. I mean, for one, you know, just

444
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:16,000
Speaker 1: just to mind my question about you know, when you're

445
00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:18,320
Speaker 1: in the federal government and I had federal peers, you

446
00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:20,679
Speaker 1: had federal peers. I mean, if you were sitting in

447
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:23,280
Speaker 1: a meeting with a bunch of FBI guys when you

448
00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:26,080
Speaker 1: were you know, an assistant US attorney, and let's just

449
00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:27,760
Speaker 1: say that you did have some kind of a memory

450
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:30,159
Speaker 1: lapse and you said something that was factually untrue, and

451
00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:32,600
Speaker 1: they're asking you, you know, did you speak to witness A?

452
00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:33,960
Speaker 1: And you said, no, I don't think I ever spoke

453
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:36,399
Speaker 1: to witness A. Uh. And then if they came in

454
00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:38,359
Speaker 1: a day later and said, you know, Andy, we've got

455
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:40,399
Speaker 1: a phone call record or you did speak to that witness,

456
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:41,919
Speaker 1: I mean, are you going to prison? I just I

457
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:44,159
Speaker 1: want to know, you know, when you're among peers in

458
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:47,160
Speaker 1: the federal government, what you know, if you're and you're

459
00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:49,480
Speaker 1: not told it's a criminal investigation, you're not told the

460
00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:54,879
Speaker 1: lawyer up, where's the line. Well, yeah, this is another

461
00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:58,120
Speaker 1: thing that's a big problem with this. Why did they

462
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 1: have to Flynn? Why did they have to interview him

463
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:09,520
Speaker 1: about conversations that they had recordings of I can't see

464
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:15,280
Speaker 1: since you have a recording of the conversation, they know

465
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:19,280
Speaker 1: very well whether, for example, Flynn talked to Kisliak who

466
00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:23,280
Speaker 1: was the Russian ambassador about sanctions or he didn't, because

467
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:26,159
Speaker 1: they have they have the recording, right, So what's the

468
00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:29,760
Speaker 1: point of asking Flynn whether he talked to Kisliak abat

469
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 1: sanctions if they know he talked to Kisliak abat sanctions,

470
00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:36,639
Speaker 1: unless it's to try to get them to say something

471
00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:41,440
Speaker 1: that's different from what they have on the recording. And ordinarily,

472
00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:46,400
Speaker 1: if you were in good faith talking to somebody in

473
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:49,240
Speaker 1: a situation where you weren't trying to get them jammed

474
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:52,719
Speaker 1: up on a false statement, what you would do is

475
00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:56,400
Speaker 1: it was really important to the FBI to understand the

476
00:28:56,560 --> 00:29:02,360
Speaker 1: context and maybe any in unclear or ambiguous parts of

477
00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:06,680
Speaker 1: the conversation between kisley At and Flynn. Why not play

478
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:09,920
Speaker 1: the conversation for Flynn and ask them what did this mean?

479
00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:12,640
Speaker 1: What did that mean? Instead, what they did was they

480
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:16,040
Speaker 1: asked him did you say this? Did you say that

481
00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 1: in connection with a conversation that they had a recording

482
00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:21,800
Speaker 1: of and they knew damn well whether he had said this?

483
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:23,960
Speaker 1: Said that, Andy, can we run into a quick break

484
00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:25,680
Speaker 1: and comebacks? I also want to ask a couple more

485
00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:27,360
Speaker 1: about this and go into a little bit of Cohen.

486
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:30,200
Speaker 1: Do you have time? Yeah? Of course, Okay, we got

487
00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:33,120
Speaker 1: more with Andy McCarthy on the flip side. Stay with us.

488
00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:36,719
Speaker 1: Are welcome back team. We've got Andy McCarthy of Fox

489
00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:40,520
Speaker 1: News and National Review joining us here. As you probably

490
00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:41,959
Speaker 1: know if you listen to the show, Andy was an

491
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:44,520
Speaker 1: assistant US attorney in the Southern District of New York

492
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:48,760
Speaker 1: for decades. So, Andy, before we get the Cohen issue,

493
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:51,080
Speaker 1: which of course brings the Southern District, You're old stomping

494
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:54,160
Speaker 1: ground right into the mix here, I really need to know,

495
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:57,760
Speaker 1: are we ever going to find out about this time

496
00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:01,640
Speaker 1: lag between the Flynn meeting and the decision of file charges?

497
00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:05,320
Speaker 1: Are we ever going to find out what they said

498
00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:08,400
Speaker 1: to him and what he supposedly lied about? And can

499
00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:10,880
Speaker 1: the President just say, you know, whatever the FBI has

500
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 1: on this, it's public now because he's being sentenced. Why not, Well,

501
00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:18,800
Speaker 1: the answer to the last question is the president should

502
00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 1: unfeld any of the stuff, and it would be a

503
00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:24,520
Speaker 1: good thing as he did, But yes, absolutely they can

504
00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:27,680
Speaker 1: put all of the shouts. My personal views it looking

505
00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:31,040
Speaker 1: at the sentencing memo, but is that this is all

506
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:34,800
Speaker 1: about Turken And what I mean by that is the

507
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:39,520
Speaker 1: sequence of events is in January, right of everybody goes

508
00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:43,480
Speaker 1: into office. So right after the inauguration, they interview Flynn

509
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:46,000
Speaker 1: and they make a decision that they're not going to

510
00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:50,600
Speaker 1: prosecute him because even if there are failures of recollection,

511
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:53,080
Speaker 1: they seem to be innocent ones and he's not trying

512
00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:58,120
Speaker 1: to lie to them. In May, Mueller is appointed, and

513
00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:01,960
Speaker 1: they later decide suddenly to second guess the guys who

514
00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:05,240
Speaker 1: were in the room and charging with false statements. The

515
00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:10,800
Speaker 1: intervening event between those two things is this whole business

516
00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:16,400
Speaker 1: about He was questioned about Turkey, as as it's played

517
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:20,120
Speaker 1: out in the sentencing memo, and one of the things

518
00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:25,320
Speaker 1: they discussed there is they were pressing him on the

519
00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:32,200
Speaker 1: Flynn corporations or the Flynn businesses dealings with Turkey and

520
00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:37,719
Speaker 1: whether they were acting as a foreign agent without without registering.

521
00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:40,920
Speaker 1: And I think the reason that that's relevant. Is that's

522
00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:43,239
Speaker 1: the only part of the sentencing memo where they talk

523
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:47,680
Speaker 1: about the Flynn business or the Flynn company. That's the

524
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:50,960
Speaker 1: company he had with his son. And I think the

525
00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:55,280
Speaker 1: natro subtle message here or there is that if they

526
00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:58,800
Speaker 1: were going to pursue criminal charges on the Turkey matter

527
00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:00,560
Speaker 1: because of this failure to I just or as a

528
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:02,640
Speaker 1: foreign agent, which didn't used to be up until the

529
00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:06,600
Speaker 1: Moller investigation, something that the Justice Department got two whipped

530
00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:09,720
Speaker 1: up about, it was going to be jeopardy not only

531
00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:12,760
Speaker 1: for General Flynn but for his son and I right,

532
00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:14,880
Speaker 1: which also makes sense as to why. I mean, when

533
00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:17,480
Speaker 1: you see that sentencing MAMO, it's oh, Flint takes Flint

534
00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:21,360
Speaker 1: takes full responsibility, he understands, he takes full responsibility, and

535
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 1: you know they've got a metaphorical gun to his head

536
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:27,120
Speaker 1: on this stuff. Yeah. I think that's what the Turkey

537
00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:30,920
Speaker 1: stuff really is. Yeah, So so on the now, I mean,

538
00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:32,920
Speaker 1: I could get into this at some point, but but

539
00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:35,160
Speaker 1: will we ever find out what was said in that meeting?

540
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:36,720
Speaker 1: Are they going to try to keep that from us

541
00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:40,120
Speaker 1: in the Flynn meeting? Do you mean, are we ever

542
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:42,600
Speaker 1: going to see the FBI three OZ two the yes

543
00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:46,400
Speaker 1: or whatever report or the interview they did. Unless the

544
00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:50,360
Speaker 1: President unseals it, I don't see how we would see it, Okay,

545
00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:54,600
Speaker 1: And now Andy on Nacoan only a couple of minutes Buck,

546
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:56,840
Speaker 1: I say, the only caveat to that is if it's

547
00:32:56,880 --> 00:33:00,280
Speaker 1: relevant to the Inspective General's investigation, but I don't know

548
00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:03,720
Speaker 1: about that. Now. We've been talking about the the Cohen

549
00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:06,760
Speaker 1: situation here on the on the show at some length.

550
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 1: Obviously he got three years today, which is people say

551
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:12,120
Speaker 1: kind of at the lower end, but I mean it's

552
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:15,960
Speaker 1: it's it sounds like there's a very aggressive prosecutorial tactics

553
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,360
Speaker 1: being used by the Southern District, by the Special Council.

554
00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:20,200
Speaker 1: So it's hard to think of there being much much

555
00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:23,920
Speaker 1: mercy involved here under the circumstances that all said. Uh,

556
00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:25,880
Speaker 1: you know, you've got a lot of people running around

557
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:30,160
Speaker 1: Judge Knapps whom I like, Judge Napolitano over from from Fox,

558
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:32,360
Speaker 1: you know, saying that he thinks there could be evidence

559
00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:36,360
Speaker 1: or the Southern District may have evidence of felony crimes

560
00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:39,040
Speaker 1: committed by the President. What's what's your take on that?

561
00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:46,160
Speaker 1: I think that, um, what happened with h. Cohen today

562
00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:51,560
Speaker 1: was pretty much standard fair in criminal cases. I mean,

563
00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:55,880
Speaker 1: this was a case where the prosecutors were essentially recommending

564
00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:59,400
Speaker 1: forty two months, and the judge gave the judge gave

565
00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:03,880
Speaker 1: thirty six months. It's pretty common for sentencing judge to

566
00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:08,440
Speaker 1: give a slightly lower sentence than the prosecutor is asking for.

567
00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:14,279
Speaker 1: So this really is within the norm of that. If

568
00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:20,160
Speaker 1: there were lots and lots of information damaging against the president,

569
00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:23,640
Speaker 1: what you would expect, especially if Cohen was involved in it,

570
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:27,160
Speaker 1: was they would have made him plead guilty to those

571
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:31,080
Speaker 1: instances and then he would say, here's what I did,

572
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:34,600
Speaker 1: Here's what the president did, and then they would have him,

573
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:37,520
Speaker 1: you know, in store as a witness to testify about

574
00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:41,359
Speaker 1: those transactions. Instead, what they seem to have done is

575
00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:45,560
Speaker 1: strained to make the case based on the campaign finance laws,

576
00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:49,040
Speaker 1: which ordinarily aren't even treated as a crime, and which

577
00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:53,160
Speaker 1: here there's a pretty serious legal challenge to whether this

578
00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:56,600
Speaker 1: is actually an inkind campaign contribution at all. I have

579
00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:58,719
Speaker 1: to think Buck, if they had something better than that,

580
00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:01,960
Speaker 1: they would have gone with something don a champaign finance violation.

581
00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:04,799
Speaker 1: Real quick, Anny, we only got a few seconds here

582
00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:06,840
Speaker 1: before I to close out. Are you concerned for the

583
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:10,960
Speaker 1: president in terms of legal jeopardy. I'm done on this

584
00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:13,000
Speaker 1: stuff at the moment. I mean, I think you should.

585
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:15,279
Speaker 1: He started to take it seriously. They're clearly trying to

586
00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:17,240
Speaker 1: make a case on him in in the Southern District.

587
00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:20,160
Speaker 1: But I think the bigger problem for him has come January.

588
00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:23,000
Speaker 1: The Democrats in the House as sometina power that's gonna

589
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:25,680
Speaker 1: be very difficult to govern and there's going to be

590
00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:27,360
Speaker 1: a lot of unknown out there that they're going to

591
00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:31,719
Speaker 1: be poking around in. Yeah, agreed, Annie McCarthy. Everybody check

592
00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:34,680
Speaker 1: out his ladies, read nashreview dot com, and also look

593
00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:37,000
Speaker 1: for him on Fox News. Andy, thanks so much for

594
00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:39,480
Speaker 1: the time, my friend. We'll talk to you soon, my

595
00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:45,840
Speaker 1: pleasure books. Take care. Ah Man. They did Flynn dirty everybody,

596
00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:48,520
Speaker 1: that's for sure. If you're making a list and checking

597
00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:51,719
Speaker 1: it twice, you better put black Rifle coffee at the

598
00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:55,360
Speaker 1: top of that list. Mister and missus Claws make it happen,

599
00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:57,720
Speaker 1: all right. That's the best gift you can give anybody

600
00:35:57,719 --> 00:36:01,359
Speaker 1: this Christmas, other than of course love, affection and patriotism.

601
00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 1: But really, black Rifle is my coffee of choice. I

602
00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:07,880
Speaker 1: drink it every morning. All right, Black Rifle is the

603
00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:10,440
Speaker 1: way I get my day going. It's delicious. It's coffee

604
00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:12,600
Speaker 1: that you should all be drinking too, and they've got

605
00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:15,239
Speaker 1: a coffee club, so that makes everything really easy for you.

606
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:17,760
Speaker 1: You just pick your blend with the amount you want

607
00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:19,919
Speaker 1: and Black Rifle will ship it right to your door.

608
00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:22,319
Speaker 1: And you can gift Black Rifle to somebody else. So

609
00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:24,880
Speaker 1: hook somebody else up with the best coffee you can

610
00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:27,000
Speaker 1: get out there from a company that's all about supporting

611
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:32,520
Speaker 1: America and veterans. It's the best tasting, most energizing coffee

612
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:35,239

618
00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:57,240
Speaker 1: These two contributions very well may have swung the election.

619
00:36:57,280 --> 00:37:01,640
Speaker 1: Point to another pair of campaign contributions that were so

620
00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:06,600
Speaker 1: directly tied to the outcome. Basically fraudulently obtained the office

621
00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:10,840
Speaker 1: by committing felonies. Someone who corruptly gains the office of

622
00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:15,080
Speaker 1: president cannot be allowed to retain that office. Might this

623
00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:21,279
Speaker 1: be the greatest crime in American history? Might that be

624
00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:25,360
Speaker 1: the greatest crime in American history? That Steve Schmidt the

625
00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:28,160
Speaker 1: Martyes guile, I'm not don beat. I mean that might

626
00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:30,760
Speaker 1: be might just be the dumbest thing I've ever heard

627
00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:36,880
Speaker 1: on television period? Yes, yes, I think so, the greatest

628
00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:40,280
Speaker 1: crime in American history. I mean a country that has had,

629
00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:45,200
Speaker 1: you know, slavery, Jim Crow, seggregation, a civil war. You know,

630
00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:48,080
Speaker 1: go down the list of all the of all the

631
00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:51,800
Speaker 1: terrible things, I've gone, the greatest crime in American history?

632
00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:56,080
Speaker 1: And we have mass murderers, we have It's like this,

633
00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:58,719
Speaker 1: this is the greatest crimeate ever. How could someone say

634
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:05,440
Speaker 1: something so stupid on cable television and be applauded for it?

635
00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:10,600
Speaker 1: The answer, as we live in a time of Democrat

636
00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:16,560
Speaker 1: mass delusion. This is why, this is why I play

637
00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:18,560
Speaker 1: their words for you. This is so you can hear them.

638
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:21,560
Speaker 1: I'm not the one who's sitting here talking crazy. They're

639
00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:27,839
Speaker 1: talking crazy. Trump's campaign contribution the most significant ever. They

640
00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:31,600
Speaker 1: are saying, well, let's let's dig into that for a moment,

641
00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:36,680
Speaker 1: shall we. Mark Penn has been pointing out, among others,

642
00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:42,440
Speaker 1: that Congress has been paying off sex accusers with a

643
00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:48,319
Speaker 1: special funded set up since nineteen ninety eight. Here, let's

644
00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:50,360
Speaker 1: work through some of the details of this play twenty

645
00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:53,560
Speaker 1: one In this return back to nineteen ninety eight. Again,

646
00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:56,200
Speaker 1: a little thing happened here that they're two hundred and

647
00:38:56,239 --> 00:38:59,719
Speaker 1: sixty eighth settlements in Congress, many of them presumably done

648
00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:02,680
Speaker 1: during the election period. That if this was a true precedent,

649
00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:06,080
Speaker 1: we'd have to lock up scores of congressmen. Lock them up. Now.

650
00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:10,239
Speaker 1: That actually was taxpayer money that they use for those settlements.

651
00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:13,040
Speaker 1: But those settlements, if you follow the logic of this,

652
00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:16,400
Speaker 1: would be campaign contributions, which was why the logic of

653
00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:23,400
Speaker 1: this is broken. Yep, the logic is broken. And when

654
00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:26,759
Speaker 1: you so, just to be clear about the details here,

655
00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:31,040
Speaker 1: Congress set up a fund. It's taxpayer money Congress set

656
00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:34,520
Speaker 1: aside to pay off people who accuse members of Congress

657
00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:39,800
Speaker 1: of sexual harassment in secret, so it's not public. Now,

658
00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:43,480
Speaker 1: if paying off somebody who accuses you of sexual harassment

659
00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:49,240
Speaker 1: is a campaign contribution, then all of these members of Congress,

660
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:55,000
Speaker 1: stretching back for about twenty years who have had taxpayer dollars,

661
00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:58,560
Speaker 1: not even their own money, using taxpayer dollars to do this.

662
00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:01,839
Speaker 1: That would be like their taking taxpayer dollars for their

663
00:40:01,880 --> 00:40:05,759
Speaker 1: campaigns illegally. But on top of that, they did not

664
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:07,840
Speaker 1: disclose it. So if it is a camp, if it

665
00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:12,600
Speaker 1: is a campaign contribution for Donald Trump to pay off

666
00:40:12,640 --> 00:40:16,799
Speaker 1: a sexual harassment or this is not even harassment, donald

667
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:19,399
Speaker 1: Trump did an harass her. Just this is just this

668
00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:21,480
Speaker 1: is a straight up extortion, by the way, I mean,

669
00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:26,879
Speaker 1: this is an over an, over an affair. If it's

670
00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:29,040
Speaker 1: a problem for him, though, it's a problem for the

671
00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:32,640
Speaker 1: rest of Congress. By twenty two, they're going to have

672
00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:35,640
Speaker 1: a problem if they push impeachment and there was a

673
00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:38,920
Speaker 1: settlement in their office that could have affected one of

674
00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:41,520
Speaker 1: their elections, because they're going to be asked the question,

675
00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:44,760
Speaker 1: did you or someone in your office cause a settlement

676
00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:47,600
Speaker 1: to be entered into sometime in the year of your election,

677
00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:50,160
Speaker 1: and are you a felon? Now? If Donald Trump is

678
00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:53,040
Speaker 1: a felon. I didn't like ninety eight and I don't

679
00:40:53,120 --> 00:40:55,680
Speaker 1: like what's going on today for the very same reason

680
00:40:56,000 --> 00:41:00,160
Speaker 1: that you can't remove presidents for these reasons. You know,

681
00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:03,759
Speaker 1: we just we just see the partisan warfare playing out

682
00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:09,960
Speaker 1: and Democrats have absolutely no principles whatsoever here. And you

683
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:11,719
Speaker 1: see this from the way that they were so quick

684
00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:15,800
Speaker 1: to hop on the Avanadi bandwagon. The guy is scummy,

685
00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:20,879
Speaker 1: just scummy, and they're so quick to try to use

686
00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:26,040
Speaker 1: Stormy Daniels to bring down this president. And yet when

687
00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:28,640
Speaker 1: you dig into the details a little bit, I do,

688
00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:31,200
Speaker 1: I am waiting, and I I should have asked I

689
00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:33,200
Speaker 1: we had Andy McCarthy on, I would have asked this

690
00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:35,040
Speaker 1: question if I had remembered. I'll ask him the next time,

691
00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:36,799
Speaker 1: or I'll send him a text message and I'll find

692
00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:42,000
Speaker 1: out what I can. But how is it not extortion?

693
00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:45,879
Speaker 1: Exactly what happened to Trump? Remember, there was no he's

694
00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:49,080
Speaker 1: no criminal. Trump did nothing criminal, was not even a

695
00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:54,080
Speaker 1: llegs or anything criminal. With Stormy Daniels. She was just saying, Oh, basically,

696
00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:56,040
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna ruin your life and your family

697
00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:58,440
Speaker 1: unless you pay me money, because I'm going to tell

698
00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:00,280
Speaker 1: everybody that we had an affair, whether you believe head

699
00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:03,440
Speaker 1: the affair or not. As I point out this terribly discussing.

700
00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:05,840
Speaker 1: Then you look, Stormy Daniel was obviously a very damaged person,

701
00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:10,960
Speaker 1: very unethical, very gross person. But this is how the

702
00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:14,759
Speaker 1: media reacts to a revelation that really the president has

703
00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:18,960
Speaker 1: been extorted play clip eleven. They say Trump directed that's

704
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:21,400
Speaker 1: the word for lawyer Michael Cohen to cover up a

705
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:24,440
Speaker 1: campaign contribution in the form of payments to two women

706
00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:28,040
Speaker 1: with whom he had sexual relations. Some top Republicans are

707
00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:32,920
Speaker 1: dismissing the allegations that Donald Trump directed his former fixer

708
00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:36,879
Speaker 1: Michael Cohen to make illegal hush money payments to two

709
00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:41,160
Speaker 1: women during the twenty sixteen campaign. It's incredible to me.

710
00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:44,640
Speaker 1: This is despicable, simple private transaction in which a porn

711
00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:46,680
Speaker 1: star was paid one hundred and thirty thousand dollars to

712
00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:49,359
Speaker 1: keep silent in the final moments. Right, nothing simple about that.

713
00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:54,239
Speaker 1: Let's remember, these payoffs are about the president having affairs

714
00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:59,000
Speaker 1: with women soon after his wife had a baby. Just

715
00:42:59,080 --> 00:43:01,640
Speaker 1: trying to trash there and over the stuff, just going

716
00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:05,600
Speaker 1: after him. Meanwhile, he doesn't even admit the affair. He

717
00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:08,600
Speaker 1: says he didn't do it. I don't know. I well,

718
00:43:08,680 --> 00:43:11,120
Speaker 1: you know, I've seen no evidence that he did it.

719
00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:13,040
Speaker 1: Could I believe that he did it, shut but I've

720
00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:15,799
Speaker 1: seen no evidence of any kind, and given that this

721
00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:17,960
Speaker 1: wasn't that long ago, I find that very very hard

722
00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:21,200
Speaker 1: to believe. But you know, you have all this puritanical

723
00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:24,560
Speaker 1: streak from the left on this issue now. And I

724
00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:26,560
Speaker 1: don't mean from the left general, I mean from people

725
00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:31,360
Speaker 1: in the media who were around back in the nineties.

726
00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:35,680
Speaker 1: And my MainMan producer, Mike for example, pulled together a

727
00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:39,400
Speaker 1: little a little montage for us here of what the

728
00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:41,680
Speaker 1: Democrats were saying back when Bill Clinton was in a

729
00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:44,320
Speaker 1: little trouble for Oh, that's right, as they said, lying

730
00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:48,040
Speaker 1: about an affair at Play twenty three, lying about an

731
00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:51,359
Speaker 1: extramarital affair does not rise to the level of high

732
00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:55,520
Speaker 1: crimes and misdemeanors. Violating a marital vial It is not

733
00:43:55,640 --> 00:43:59,640
Speaker 1: an impeachable offense. The underlying issue is about sex. Impeachment

734
00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:04,279
Speaker 1: was designed to rid this nation of traitors and tyrants,

735
00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:09,160
Speaker 1: not attempts to cover up extramarital affairs. Covering up a

736
00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:14,000
Speaker 1: private sexual affair cannot compare to the Nixon precedent. This

737
00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:18,600
Speaker 1: is a Republican coudeta. Bill Clinton is guilty of certain

738
00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:23,360
Speaker 1: endiscretions in his private life. However, he did not commit

739
00:44:23,480 --> 00:44:27,640
Speaker 1: high crimes and misdemeanors. We have become the laughing stock

740
00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:32,120
Speaker 1: of the entire world because a sexual scandal, perjury regarding

741
00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:35,760
Speaker 1: sex is not a great and dangerous offense against the nation.

742
00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:40,680
Speaker 1: It is not an impeachable offense. Not an impeachable offense.

743
00:44:40,680 --> 00:44:43,640
Speaker 1: They were saying, then, who wants to guess if they

744
00:44:43,640 --> 00:44:47,040
Speaker 1: will use their words from nineteen ninety eight to guide

745
00:44:47,080 --> 00:44:51,120
Speaker 1: them now in their judgments about whether we currently have

746
00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:54,120
Speaker 1: a president who has committed impeachable offenses? Oh, who wants

747
00:44:54,120 --> 00:44:58,080
Speaker 1: to guess? I think we're all very clear. There's no

748
00:44:58,160 --> 00:45:00,880
Speaker 1: principle involved here. There is only power and the struggle

749
00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:02,560
Speaker 1: for it, and that is what the left wants, and

750
00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:05,520
Speaker 1: they will do anything to get it, and Trump stands

751
00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:11,880
Speaker 1: in their way. Therefore, they will use any tricks, any

752
00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:16,040
Speaker 1: play any dirty games, do whatever they have to do,

753
00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:21,680
Speaker 1: and we are supposed to forget about the history of

754
00:45:21,719 --> 00:45:25,560
Speaker 1: how they've acted in the past and allow them to

755
00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:29,840
Speaker 1: just just contort the law. These are the ways that

756
00:45:29,840 --> 00:45:32,080
Speaker 1: they've come after Trump so far. It's also flimsy, and

757
00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:35,000
Speaker 1: it's so desperate, and they just trick you know, the

758
00:45:35,239 --> 00:45:40,160
Speaker 1: Logan Act, the Emolument's clause, you know, the tax returns

759
00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:44,279
Speaker 1: the this that the paying off the FEC violations. I mean,

760
00:45:45,160 --> 00:45:48,160
Speaker 1: they're just coming at them with everything they can. You

761
00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:50,400
Speaker 1: show me the man, and I'll show you the crime.

762
00:45:50,520 --> 00:45:54,760
Speaker 1: Lavrenti Barrier of the secret police in the Soviet Union.

763
00:45:54,880 --> 00:45:59,200
Speaker 1: That is the principle at work here. In fact, you

764
00:45:59,320 --> 00:46:06,280
Speaker 1: had a a the incoming the incoming state attorney general

765
00:46:06,440 --> 00:46:08,919

769

Speaker 1: This is the New York Attorney general. Remember, can't pardon

Speaker 1: of New York, Trump's home state, my home state, is

775
00:46:38,920 --> 00:46:42,160
Speaker 1: saying we're going after Trump, his family, and anyone in

776
00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:48,560
Speaker 1: his inner circle. This is police state garbage. Did you

777
00:46:48,600 --> 00:46:51,080

Speaker 1: dot com your new alternative social media show. It unfortunately

796
00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:56,480
Speaker 1: that the president choose to shut down the government, that

797
00:47:56,600 --> 00:48:00,200
Speaker 1: we have a Trump shutdown as a Christmas present, they

798
00:48:00,280 --> 00:48:05,879
Speaker 1: present to the American people, Nancy Pelosi waging a war

799
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:09,879
Speaker 1: on Christmas. You know, it's so funny. The Libs get

800
00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:14,279
Speaker 1: so triggered, they get so agry when we bring up

801
00:48:14,320 --> 00:48:16,640
Speaker 1: that they seem to have a problem. They do seem

802
00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:21,399
Speaker 1: to have it an issue with Christmas. That that much is.

803
00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:23,759
Speaker 1: It's it's apparent to me. I mean, I think they

804
00:48:23,760 --> 00:48:27,360
Speaker 1: do have problems with Christmas as a holiday. It's just

805
00:48:27,480 --> 00:48:30,480
Speaker 1: not culturally. Even the ones who are who are ostensibly Christian,

806
00:48:30,840 --> 00:48:32,800
Speaker 1: you know, they went, oh, got to be so inclusive,

807
00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:34,759
Speaker 1: and I mean, just I won't get it right now.

808
00:48:34,840 --> 00:48:37,920
Speaker 1: But for fun, read about the history of quanza. Let

809
00:48:37,920 --> 00:48:40,960
Speaker 1: me read about where quanza comes from, who came up

810
00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:45,160
Speaker 1: with it, and the notion of like quanza reats in

811
00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:48,640
Speaker 1: high school classrooms and stuff. It's the more you know

812
00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:50,399
Speaker 1: about them when you're like, this is really I mean,

813
00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:53,640
Speaker 1: it's it's really up there with you know, the you know,

814
00:48:53,719 --> 00:48:56,640
Speaker 1: the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster or whatever. I mean,

815
00:48:56,640 --> 00:48:59,759
Speaker 1: It's not a real holiday in any in any notable sense.

816
00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:02,360
Speaker 1: It's not a holiday there's any connection to any religion

817
00:49:02,440 --> 00:49:06,080
Speaker 1: or anyway. M But okay, yeah, I mean you could

818
00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:08,920
Speaker 1: say hanaka obviously, but you could say happy Hanaka, you

819
00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:10,919
Speaker 1: can say Mary Christmas. You can say both of these things.

820
00:49:10,920 --> 00:49:13,279
Speaker 1: You don't have to eliminate one so that you're but

821
00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:17,080
Speaker 1: Pelosi is like that. But all this shutdown, which will

822
00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:19,200
Speaker 1: be talking more about we got, we got Congressman Louie

823
00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:22,040
Speaker 1: Gomert's gonna be joining us later on this hour, which

824
00:49:22,040 --> 00:49:24,839
Speaker 1: I think will be quite a bit of we'll get

825
00:49:24,840 --> 00:49:26,279
Speaker 1: a quite a bit of insight. I just also just

826
00:49:26,360 --> 00:49:28,640
Speaker 1: like Louie. I mean, I've I've known Louis since my

827
00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:30,480
Speaker 1: early days at the Blaze, and he's just he's a

828
00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:33,680
Speaker 1: really good guy. He's always fun to talk to. You know.

829
00:49:33,760 --> 00:49:37,279
Speaker 1: Senator John Kennedy is saying, for example, that he doesn't think,

830
00:49:38,120 --> 00:49:41,840
Speaker 1: he doesn't think that that this shutdown is a bluff. I,

831
00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:47,160
Speaker 1: as you know, have been pretty cynical about this. I've thought, oh, yeah,

832
00:49:47,200 --> 00:49:51,560
Speaker 1: another oh shutdown, like they always say this. But I

833
00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:55,920
Speaker 1: am very doubtful that there will in fact be a shutdown.

834
00:49:55,960 --> 00:49:58,440
Speaker 1: I had been very doubtful until this meeting with Trump

835
00:49:58,440 --> 00:50:00,879
Speaker 1: and Pelosi and Schumer, where he's like, oh, I'll shut

836
00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:04,359
Speaker 1: it down. Oh I'll shut it down. Senator Kennedy, ple ten,

837
00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:06,720
Speaker 1: I think We're gonna have a shutdown for two reasons.

838
00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:10,440
Speaker 1: Number one, President Trump does not look to me like

839
00:50:10,520 --> 00:50:13,680
Speaker 1: he was bluffing or is bluffing. And number two, I

840
00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:19,680
Speaker 1: don't think Speaker Pomosi is going to agree to anything

841
00:50:20,040 --> 00:50:23,960
Speaker 1: because she's worried about her speakership. As far as I'm concerned,

842
00:50:23,960 --> 00:50:26,120
Speaker 1: if it's shut down, it's a pox on all of

843
00:50:26,160 --> 00:50:29,440
Speaker 1: our houses. I don't know politically who's gonna win or

844
00:50:29,520 --> 00:50:31,799
Speaker 1: lose this. I do know that too many people are

845
00:50:31,840 --> 00:50:36,640
Speaker 1: preoccupied with the politics of it. We ought to try

846
00:50:36,640 --> 00:50:38,840
Speaker 1: to figure a way out of this. I'm just saying

847
00:50:38,880 --> 00:50:41,319
Speaker 1: based on what I've seen, and I could be wrong,

848
00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:43,759
Speaker 1: and I hope i am, because the government shut down

849
00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:46,560
Speaker 1: would would not serve the American people. Well, I don't

850
00:50:46,600 --> 00:50:49,879
Speaker 1: think President bluff President Trump is bluffing, and I don't

851
00:50:49,920 --> 00:50:53,120
Speaker 1: think Speaker Plosi is gonna give an inch because she

852
00:50:53,200 --> 00:50:55,919
Speaker 1: wants to be speaker. And if I've learned anything up here,

853
00:50:56,760 --> 00:50:59,200
Speaker 1: I hate to say it, but most people in Washington

854
00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:08,319
Speaker 1: care about their jobs first. That's definitely true. Careerism is

855
00:51:09,239 --> 00:51:12,880
Speaker 1: rife here in DC, in fact, more so than I

856
00:51:12,920 --> 00:51:14,839
Speaker 1: think in a lot of other places, and a lot

857
00:51:14,840 --> 00:51:16,960
Speaker 1: of other industries. I mean the industry here in the

858
00:51:17,000 --> 00:51:20,759
Speaker 1: district is politics, and with that there's an unfortunately, it's

859
00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:23,600
Speaker 1: very lucrative, a lot of access, a lot of lobbyists

860
00:51:23,560 --> 00:51:27,120
Speaker 1: and people that are representative of different interests that are

861
00:51:27,160 --> 00:51:31,680
Speaker 1: just finding ways to suckle at the government's teat This

862
00:51:31,760 --> 00:51:34,560
Speaker 1: is why you have I don't even know it's five

863
00:51:34,719 --> 00:51:38,759
Speaker 1: or seven now, of the top ten wealthiest counties in

864
00:51:38,920 --> 00:51:44,439
Speaker 1: America per capita, per individual, per household are the ones

865
00:51:44,480 --> 00:51:47,839
Speaker 1: that are right around Washington, d C. Now, this is

866
00:51:48,120 --> 00:51:51,760
Speaker 1: this is where, this is where the special sweet sauce.

867
00:51:51,800 --> 00:51:53,040
Speaker 1: You can get a lot of it here in DC,

868
00:51:53,239 --> 00:51:55,480
Speaker 1: A lot, a lot of honey for people that know

869
00:51:55,520 --> 00:51:58,680
Speaker 1: how to get special access to the to the hive.

870
00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:02,200
Speaker 1: And it's a shame if that's the case, but you

871
00:52:02,200 --> 00:52:04,560
Speaker 1: know that that unfortunately drives a lot of the decision

872
00:52:04,600 --> 00:52:07,200
Speaker 1: making in a lot of the way that this city functions. Also,

873
00:52:07,200 --> 00:52:09,160
Speaker 1: why I just have it, you know, I'm here. It's

874
00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:13,080
Speaker 1: great for my access to the people here, the politicians.

875
00:52:13,120 --> 00:52:14,919
Speaker 1: I'm on Capitol Hill, I'm over at the White House,

876
00:52:14,960 --> 00:52:17,200
Speaker 1: I'm runner all over this town so I can bring

877
00:52:17,239 --> 00:52:22,919
Speaker 1: you information. But man, I miss anything that's not DC.

878
00:52:23,160 --> 00:52:25,719
Speaker 1: A lot of the time that all said, back to

879
00:52:25,840 --> 00:52:29,680
Speaker 1: the shutdown, here is it going to be a Schumer shutdown?

880
00:52:29,960 --> 00:52:35,280
Speaker 1: Part two? I mean, Schumer is really I think seething.

881
00:52:35,360 --> 00:52:38,080
Speaker 1: After yesterday I read this report the President of Trump

882
00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:41,000
Speaker 1: threw a folder at the wall and was so angry.

883
00:52:41,080 --> 00:52:42,640
Speaker 1: I said, I watched that here, I watched that a

884
00:52:42,640 --> 00:52:46,880
Speaker 1: whole sit down yesterday. He crushed Pelosi and Schumer. I

885
00:52:46,920 --> 00:52:49,560
Speaker 1: mean Pelosi was like in a daze. And Schumer looked like,

886
00:52:50,600 --> 00:52:53,719
Speaker 1: you know, somebody told him, no nappy time today, you know,

887
00:52:53,800 --> 00:52:56,839
Speaker 1: no nap nap, you know, can't go sleepy sleep. He

888
00:52:57,000 --> 00:53:01,680
Speaker 1: was really unhappy. And here's here's the speaker and not speaker,

889
00:53:01,719 --> 00:53:07,160
Speaker 1: the minority leader Schumer fifteen. President is so used to

890
00:53:07,280 --> 00:53:13,200
Speaker 1: obsequious advisor. The president is so used to obsequious advisors

891
00:53:13,920 --> 00:53:18,240
Speaker 1: who fail to dispel his false and made up facts

892
00:53:18,880 --> 00:53:21,400
Speaker 1: that he lives in a cocoon of his own mistruth

893
00:53:23,120 --> 00:53:26,080
Speaker 1: Leader Pelosi and I had to tell him, no, mister President,

894
00:53:26,160 --> 00:53:30,759
Speaker 1: that's not true. We had to puncture that cocoon. And

895
00:53:30,840 --> 00:53:36,759
Speaker 1: he threw a temperate tantrum because of it. Well, the

896
00:53:37,120 --> 00:53:40,680
Speaker 1: cocoon that he lives in where we should have border security.

897
00:53:41,440 --> 00:53:46,480
Speaker 1: The cocoon where Democrats are trying to just demagogue the

898
00:53:46,520 --> 00:53:48,880
Speaker 1: issue of the border without actually handling it. I mean, well,

899
00:53:48,920 --> 00:53:50,799
Speaker 1: I'll talk to you in a moment about I had

900
00:53:50,840 --> 00:53:53,600
Speaker 1: a really interesting fun exchange today on my show. You know,

901
00:53:53,640 --> 00:53:55,600
Speaker 1: I was cool as a cucumber. As I whatever I'm

902
00:53:55,600 --> 00:53:57,319
Speaker 1: doing with lives, I try to be calm, you know,

903
00:53:57,320 --> 00:53:59,560
Speaker 1: because it's not you, it's not worth it's not my

904
00:53:59,640 --> 00:54:01,960
Speaker 1: style get you know, yell at them and everything else.

905
00:54:01,960 --> 00:54:04,080
Speaker 1: I mean, I can do that, but I tend not to.

906
00:54:05,600 --> 00:54:08,000
Speaker 1: But this whole notion of what is at the center

907
00:54:08,040 --> 00:54:10,719
Speaker 1: of the debate. We have the money. We can spend

908
00:54:10,760 --> 00:54:13,359
Speaker 1: five billion dollars on an important government project that would

909
00:54:13,520 --> 00:54:17,480
Speaker 1: that would stop a massive problem. And when you look

910
00:54:17,520 --> 00:54:19,960
Speaker 1: at opioids. But you know, fentanyl is now the number

911
00:54:19,960 --> 00:54:24,480
Speaker 1: one cause of overdose in America. And they're not getting

912
00:54:24,480 --> 00:54:27,480
Speaker 1: it from drug stores, folks. They're getting it from cartels

913
00:54:27,480 --> 00:54:31,439
Speaker 1: and from dealers. They're getting it illegally. Now there's also

914
00:54:31,480 --> 00:54:33,719
Speaker 1: a secondary black market, but that's a lot tougher. And

915
00:54:33,880 --> 00:54:36,520
Speaker 1: you know, anybody who's selling on a secondary black market

916
00:54:36,239 --> 00:54:41,960
Speaker 1: is really taking a huge risk because if they find

917
00:54:41,960 --> 00:54:44,040
Speaker 1: out that you gave your fentanyl somebody, that person dies,

918
00:54:44,080 --> 00:54:46,640
Speaker 1: you sold them illegally, you're in big trouble. I mean,

919
00:54:46,840 --> 00:54:49,719
Speaker 1: you might look into manslaughter charges. So of course the

920
00:54:49,760 --> 00:54:52,000
Speaker 1: cartels don't care. It's why you've got over seventy thousand

921
00:54:52,080 --> 00:54:55,959
Speaker 1: people you're dying. I mean, this is a national security emergency.

922
00:54:56,480 --> 00:54:59,560
Speaker 1: The drugs are flowing over our border. It's not just

923
00:54:59,560 --> 00:55:04,000
Speaker 1: about the opping people. It's also about stopping you know,

924
00:55:04,040 --> 00:55:07,200
Speaker 1: forget about the caravans of people. It's the cartels and

925
00:55:07,320 --> 00:55:11,759
Speaker 1: the caravans of drugs they're running into the country. It's

926
00:55:11,800 --> 00:55:16,360
Speaker 1: killing seventy thousand people years an urgent health crisis, and

927
00:55:16,440 --> 00:55:18,920
Speaker 1: a wall would help. And every border patrol agent I

928
00:55:18,920 --> 00:55:21,440
Speaker 1: have ever talked to you, and I've talked to dozens

929
00:55:21,440 --> 00:55:24,000
Speaker 1: and dozens of them in the last few years, every

930
00:55:24,040 --> 00:55:26,800
Speaker 1: single one says the same thing, a wall would help.

931
00:55:27,400 --> 00:55:29,640
Speaker 1: Nobody says a wall is a complete waste of time.

932
00:55:29,920 --> 00:55:32,680
Speaker 1: Nobody I've never heard. I mean, you know, you could

933
00:55:32,680 --> 00:55:34,239
Speaker 1: tell me that there's someone out there who says that,

934
00:55:34,280 --> 00:55:37,000
Speaker 1: who actually knows about the border, but I've never met anybody.

935
00:55:37,320 --> 00:55:39,520
Speaker 1: And everybody in the San Diego border sector is like,

936
00:55:39,520 --> 00:55:41,399
Speaker 1: oh gosh, thank Heaven's we have the wall in fact,

937
00:55:41,600 --> 00:55:43,800
Speaker 1: they worry about the sections of the wall that aren't

938
00:55:44,160 --> 00:55:49,440
Speaker 1: strong enough and aren't reinforced. That's their concern. We gotta

939
00:55:49,520 --> 00:55:52,040
Speaker 1: fight now on this issue. There must be a shotdown

940
00:55:52,480 --> 00:55:55,560
Speaker 1: or a wall. And we have one fourth of the

941
00:55:55,560 --> 00:55:58,400
Speaker 1: world's almost one fourth of the world's immigrants right in

942
00:55:58,400 --> 00:56:01,600
Speaker 1: the United States, somewhere between forty five and sixty million.

943
00:56:01,800 --> 00:56:06,480
Speaker 1: Look at countries that send people all over the world China, India, Mexico, Turkey,

944
00:56:06,520 --> 00:56:10,200
Speaker 1: and they lecture people on their supposed civic duties. And

945
00:56:10,239 --> 00:56:12,560
Speaker 1: then those are the countries that are least likely to

946
00:56:12,560 --> 00:56:15,239
Speaker 1: allow immigrants to come in to their own nation, whether

947
00:56:15,400 --> 00:56:18,400
Speaker 1: in California or Nevada, or Paris or London. That the

948
00:56:18,440 --> 00:56:22,680
Speaker 1: administrative progressive elite feel that they can take the short

949
00:56:22,880 --> 00:56:26,920
Speaker 1: term on popularity because they're changing the demography. They're creating

950
00:56:27,280 --> 00:56:31,960
Speaker 1: a reason for larger government subsidies, entitlements, and fealty with

951
00:56:32,040 --> 00:56:36,200
Speaker 1: newcomers who don't really process themselves into the assimilation process.

952
00:56:36,280 --> 00:56:39,600
Speaker 1: And then I think they also virtue signal that they're

953
00:56:39,600 --> 00:56:43,759
Speaker 1: so moral people and their wealth or their influence or

954
00:56:43,760 --> 00:56:48,120
Speaker 1: their positions insulate them from the ramifications of their own ideology,

955
00:56:48,200 --> 00:56:50,640
Speaker 1: so they don't put their kids in schools with fifty

956
00:56:50,640 --> 00:56:53,640
Speaker 1: percent non English speakers. In a case here in California,

957
00:56:53,920 --> 00:56:56,399
Speaker 1: they live in gated communities, they don't feel that they're

958
00:56:56,440 --> 00:56:59,839
Speaker 1: going to experience the downside verset ten. Instead they say

959
00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:03,680
Speaker 1: racist synophobe, and that deters these people who don't really

960
00:57:04,080 --> 00:57:07,440
Speaker 1: make their feelings known unless the Pew polar Pole like

961
00:57:07,600 --> 00:57:12,480
Speaker 1: them ask them. Victor Davis Hansen is spot on here

962
00:57:12,680 --> 00:57:15,000
Speaker 1: on immigration. I mean, look, VDH is one of the

963
00:57:15,080 --> 00:57:19,080
Speaker 1: great contemporary intellectuals of our time, and in my opinion,

964
00:57:20,480 --> 00:57:22,600
Speaker 1: I guess contemporary of our time or the same thing.

965
00:57:22,600 --> 00:57:23,680
Speaker 1: But you know what I mean, he's one of the

966
00:57:23,720 --> 00:57:27,960
Speaker 1: great intellectuals of our day, and on the issue of immigration,

967
00:57:28,080 --> 00:57:30,520
Speaker 1: he just he just gets it. You know, we have

968
00:57:30,920 --> 00:57:35,200
Speaker 1: a massive immigrant population in this country, legal and illegal.

969
00:57:35,760 --> 00:57:38,760
Speaker 1: We take a million every year, and whenever we want

970
00:57:38,760 --> 00:57:40,880
Speaker 1: to talk about maybe a millions of love or maybe

971
00:57:40,880 --> 00:57:42,920
Speaker 1: we should change something here or there, it's, oh, my gosh,

972
00:57:42,920 --> 00:57:47,800
Speaker 1: you're racist. Are all changes to immigration racist? Is that

973
00:57:48,360 --> 00:57:50,360
Speaker 1: the position that we're in? It? Apparently it is if

974
00:57:50,360 --> 00:57:55,280
Speaker 1: you listen to Democrats. Is the wall racist? Well, in fact,

975
00:57:55,480 --> 00:57:58,360
Speaker 1: here's a perfect perfect place to trans transition into this.

976
00:57:58,360 --> 00:58:02,320
Speaker 1: So today on Rise. And you know today there were

977
00:58:02,320 --> 00:58:04,200
Speaker 1: two We had a panel. Usually the panel is a

978
00:58:04,640 --> 00:58:06,840
Speaker 1: Republican and a Democrat. There was a mistake today in

979
00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:09,680
Speaker 1: the bookings. We had two Democrats. So it was buck v.

980
00:58:09,960 --> 00:58:14,320
Speaker 1: Three today on the panel. But please, I got buck fo,

981
00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:16,320
Speaker 1: I got all kinds of ninja moves. I'm not worried

982
00:58:16,320 --> 00:58:19,400
Speaker 1: about it. And I sent down on this This guy

983
00:58:20,640 --> 00:58:23,680
Speaker 1: actually his name is Kelly, and he is from an

984
00:58:23,760 --> 00:58:28,400
Speaker 1: organization that trains and it's a pretty from one I understand,

985
00:58:28,400 --> 00:58:34,240
Speaker 1: a pretty prolific organization in this field. They train people democrats.

986
00:58:34,320 --> 00:58:37,280
Speaker 1: They trained democrats to run for office. So you call

987
00:58:37,360 --> 00:58:39,520
Speaker 1: them and they say we'll teach you. So it's really

988
00:58:39,560 --> 00:58:44,960
Speaker 1: like community organizing for community organizers and this organization and

989
00:58:45,040 --> 00:58:46,920
Speaker 1: he's the head of it. He runs this organizations. He's

990
00:58:46,960 --> 00:58:49,760
Speaker 1: got some authority. So we're talking about immigration a little bit,

991
00:58:49,800 --> 00:58:53,320
Speaker 1: and I just wanted to get down to first first

992
00:58:53,360 --> 00:58:56,520
Speaker 1: things here, first principles for a moment. And so what

993
00:58:56,720 --> 00:58:58,680
Speaker 1: is I wanted to hear from a Democrat who's very

994
00:58:58,720 --> 00:59:02,800
Speaker 1: involved in you know, progressive circles and progressive politics. Why

995
00:59:02,840 --> 00:59:05,800
Speaker 1: are you so opposed to a wall? And and I

996
00:59:05,840 --> 00:59:07,520
Speaker 1: want you all this is from this morning. I want

997
00:59:07,520 --> 00:59:10,480
Speaker 1: you all to hear how this exchange went, because it's uh,

998
00:59:10,520 --> 00:59:15,200
Speaker 1: it is illuminating. Play seventeen stative American politics is And

999
00:59:16,960 --> 00:59:20,280
Speaker 1: why are they so opposed to a wall? Kelly? Why

1000
00:59:20,280 --> 00:59:22,280
Speaker 1: are they so opposed to a wall? We have a

1001
00:59:22,280 --> 00:59:26,120
Speaker 1: wall in some places. Why not build more wall? Let's see. Yeah,

1002
00:59:26,240 --> 00:59:28,160
Speaker 1: why are we so opposed to a wall? I said?

1003
00:59:28,160 --> 00:59:30,000
Speaker 1: Why are democrats? Yeah, why are they so opposed to

1004
00:59:30,040 --> 00:59:33,240
Speaker 1: a wall? The fundamental argument behind the wall that's made

1005
00:59:33,280 --> 00:59:35,920
Speaker 1: by the other party is that people are invading our

1006
00:59:35,920 --> 00:59:39,680
Speaker 1: country who are rapists and criminals and are threatening your

1007
00:59:39,880 --> 00:59:43,120
Speaker 1: very existence. A lot. That's a lot of difficulizing about

1008
00:59:43,160 --> 00:59:49,080
Speaker 1: about about what people that the press pause. Notice how

1009
00:59:49,120 --> 00:59:53,040
Speaker 1: immediately I ask a very straightforward question, and we got

1010
00:59:53,240 --> 00:59:55,080
Speaker 1: we got two Democrats. They're coming in with, you know,

1011
00:59:55,160 --> 00:59:57,240
Speaker 1: with the exact same thing we look with the President said.

1012
00:59:57,320 --> 00:59:59,640
Speaker 1: The President said that there are some rapists and there

1013
00:59:59,680 --> 01:00:03,600
Speaker 1: are our murders coming across our border. That is a fact.

1014
01:00:04,520 --> 01:00:07,760
Speaker 1: That is a fact. They can try to run with

1015
01:00:07,800 --> 01:00:10,560
Speaker 1: this hyperliteralism of he said rapists and murders. He's saying

1016
01:00:10,560 --> 01:00:12,520
Speaker 1: they're all No one thinks they're all rapists. And murders,

1017
01:00:12,520 --> 01:00:14,840
Speaker 1: but there are some come across the border. But forget

1018
01:00:14,880 --> 01:00:19,480
Speaker 1: about the rapists and murderers. The argument is for national sovereignty,

1019
01:00:19,640 --> 01:00:22,240
Speaker 1: we have to have control over everybody who comes in

1020
01:00:22,280 --> 01:00:25,320
Speaker 1: and comes out. So the argument is knock that they're

1021
01:00:25,360 --> 01:00:28,680
Speaker 1: rapists and murderers. But just notice how immediately this guy

1022
01:00:28,760 --> 01:00:32,960
Speaker 1: who trains democratic his whole life's work is training Democrat activists.

1023
01:00:33,480 --> 01:00:39,840
Speaker 1: He goes to that, and then it continues on play Zach,

1024
01:00:39,880 --> 01:00:42,600
Speaker 1: which passed with major bipartisan support back in two thousand

1025
01:00:42,640 --> 01:00:45,440
Speaker 1: and six, which was law they just never funded. It

1026
01:00:45,520 --> 01:00:48,160
Speaker 1: was that they're offensive be a barrier on our southern

1027
01:00:48,160 --> 01:00:50,520
Speaker 1: border to prevent illegal entry into the country. Right, So

1028
01:00:50,520 --> 01:00:52,000
Speaker 1: why is it such a bad idea? And if you

1029
01:00:52,040 --> 01:00:57,200
Speaker 1: want to run overshot over a bipartisan agreement and instead

1030
01:00:57,240 --> 01:00:59,880
Speaker 1: say we need a five billion dollar wall that needs

1031
01:00:59,920 --> 01:01:03,920
Speaker 1: to be put up through private property, through nature, through etcetera, etcetera,

1032
01:01:04,080 --> 01:01:07,880
Speaker 1: so that we keep these rapists and criminals out. That

1033
01:01:09,200 --> 01:01:11,959
Speaker 1: characterize as a whole group of people, immigrants that made

1034
01:01:11,960 --> 01:01:15,000
Speaker 1: this country great. Okay, we just pause here for a second.

1035
01:01:15,760 --> 01:01:18,680
Speaker 1: Think about all the platitudes that are getting thrown in here. Yeah,

1036
01:01:18,760 --> 01:01:21,520
Speaker 1: we're gonna have it go through Nate. Yes, I think

1037
01:01:21,520 --> 01:01:25,360
Speaker 1: it's okay. I think the desert will survive a wall

1038
01:01:25,400 --> 01:01:30,040
Speaker 1: through it. It's gonna be okay. Uh, you know, but

1039
01:01:30,560 --> 01:01:33,400
Speaker 1: this is Oh, it's gonna go through private property. Okay, Well,

1040
01:01:33,480 --> 01:01:36,160
Speaker 1: we'll use eminent domain and we'll pay people, or we'll

1041
01:01:36,200 --> 01:01:37,919
Speaker 1: move the wall so that it doesn't go through their problem.

1042
01:01:37,960 --> 01:01:40,160
Speaker 1: We'll figure that out too, Okay. So those are just

1043
01:01:40,320 --> 01:01:43,280
Speaker 1: logistics concerns, but that's not a reason not to build

1044
01:01:43,320 --> 01:01:46,880
Speaker 1: a wall. Oh and then we go back to the

1045
01:01:46,040 --> 01:01:51,640
Speaker 1: the the usual, the people that made America great, the immigrants. No, Actually,

1046
01:01:51,640 --> 01:01:53,680
Speaker 1: I like I like the Americans who are here, and

1047
01:01:53,680 --> 01:01:55,920
Speaker 1: I like the people who come here legally. I don't

1048
01:01:55,960 --> 01:01:57,760
Speaker 1: think that the illegal immigrants are the ones that we're

1049
01:01:57,760 --> 01:01:59,840
Speaker 1: gonna just sit around and say they're the ones who

1050
01:01:59,840 --> 01:02:03,280
Speaker 1: have made American great. But keep playing it. We tear

1051
01:02:03,360 --> 01:02:06,920
Speaker 1: down the wall in San Diego. I think we should do.

1052
01:02:06,960 --> 01:02:08,400
Speaker 1: I think this is a difference of opinion of the

1053
01:02:08,400 --> 01:02:10,880
Speaker 1: best way to enforce border security. They had a border

1054
01:02:11,320 --> 01:02:12,600
Speaker 1: hold us that they want a wall, So I think

1055
01:02:12,640 --> 01:02:14,880
Speaker 1: it's interesting to hear all these democrats ahead there's no point,

1056
01:02:14,880 --> 01:02:16,520
Speaker 1: there's no point in having a wall I'm sorry. The

1057
01:02:16,520 --> 01:02:19,040
Speaker 1: head of the CIA told us that that the Crown

1058
01:02:19,080 --> 01:02:22,160
Speaker 1: Prince ordered the killing of a journalist. But we don't

1059
01:02:22,320 --> 01:02:24,600
Speaker 1: believe them. And you know, we we're gonna we're gonna

1060
01:02:24,720 --> 01:02:27,160
Speaker 1: pick and choose which law enforcement we believe. Good time,

1061
01:02:27,200 --> 01:02:30,840
Speaker 1: Seawn makes good. It a couple of things there. Yeah,

1062
01:02:30,880 --> 01:02:32,000
Speaker 1: you might have heard. I said, Yeah, that's what we

1063
01:02:32,080 --> 01:02:33,720
Speaker 1: call a non sequitur, because that has nothing to do

1064
01:02:33,760 --> 01:02:35,280
Speaker 1: with any I'm talking about a wall, and nine wants

1065
01:02:35,280 --> 01:02:37,240
Speaker 1: to talk about the CIA. And also the CIA is

1066
01:02:37,240 --> 01:02:39,360
Speaker 1: not law enforcement. Fortunately used to work at the CIA,

1067
01:02:39,400 --> 01:02:42,320
Speaker 1: so I know these things. Um, but you know, you

1068
01:02:42,320 --> 01:02:45,520
Speaker 1: couldn't get a real answer from this guy. I asked him,

1069
01:02:45,880 --> 01:02:48,240
Speaker 1: if a wall is so bad, if a wall is racist,

1070
01:02:48,440 --> 01:02:50,560
Speaker 1: why not tear down the wall in San Diego? Why

1071
01:02:50,560 --> 01:02:52,800
Speaker 1: should we have a wall there? Oh my gosh, it's

1072
01:02:52,840 --> 01:02:57,560
Speaker 1: this monument to racism. Can't get an answer. Why shouldn't

1073
01:02:57,600 --> 01:03:00,600
Speaker 1: we have a wall? Can't get it? Now. I can

1074
01:03:00,640 --> 01:03:03,320
Speaker 1: actually help him out, if I chose to, would say.

1075
01:03:03,440 --> 01:03:06,880
Speaker 1: You could say it's too expensive. You could say it's

1076
01:03:07,360 --> 01:03:10,760
Speaker 1: not effective enough based on the cost of what it

1077
01:03:10,760 --> 01:03:13,880
Speaker 1: would be. It's too difficult, it will take too much time.

1078
01:03:15,080 --> 01:03:17,520
Speaker 1: You could make those arguments. The problem as though, when

1079
01:03:17,520 --> 01:03:19,880
Speaker 1: they get into the efficacy argument, you know what happens

1080
01:03:20,320 --> 01:03:25,520
Speaker 1: border patrol, customs, immigrations enforcement, law enforcement. You know what

1081
01:03:25,560 --> 01:03:28,560
Speaker 1: they say, No, no, this is good, this is good,

1082
01:03:28,960 --> 01:03:31,040
Speaker 1: and then they can't use this. The experts don't say

1083
01:03:31,080 --> 01:03:32,800
Speaker 1: we should have walls. So the answer why shouldn't we

1084
01:03:32,840 --> 01:03:36,560
Speaker 1: have walls? Because Democrats want a legal immigration. That is

1085
01:03:36,600 --> 01:03:39,200
Speaker 1: the answer to the question, and they should just say it.

1086
01:03:39,680 --> 01:03:43,080
Speaker 1: When the President said to Senator Assumer, I'll gladly take

1087
01:03:43,120 --> 01:03:44,760
Speaker 1: that mantle, I think what he was saying is, I'll

1088
01:03:44,800 --> 01:03:47,800
Speaker 1: gladly and proudly take the mantle of doing what we

1089
01:03:47,920 --> 01:03:49,640
Speaker 1: told the voters we were going to do, which is

1090
01:03:49,760 --> 01:03:52,840
Speaker 1: build a border security wall. So yeah, the Freedom Caucus

1091
01:03:52,840 --> 01:03:54,880
Speaker 1: in particular, we took a position last night we're going

1092
01:03:54,920 --> 01:03:56,960
Speaker 1: to support the president the full five billion for the

1093
01:03:57,000 --> 01:03:59,760
Speaker 1: border security wall, and let's reform our asylum walls while

1094
01:03:59,760 --> 01:04:02,600
Speaker 1: we're at it, because that will address the problem. Democrats

1095
01:04:02,600 --> 01:04:06,040
Speaker 1: are for open borders. Democrats want to amolishize their parties

1096
01:04:06,120 --> 01:04:09,080
Speaker 1: champion in the last election, Secretary Clinton, what does she

1097
01:04:09,160 --> 01:04:12,000
Speaker 1: run on a borderleist hemisphere. So I think it's all

1098
01:04:12,000 --> 01:04:14,000
Speaker 1: part of that, but the President's to day I think

1099
01:04:14,000 --> 01:04:17,120
Speaker 1: made it pretty daring clear he's gonna stand firm and

1100
01:04:17,240 --> 01:04:20,000
Speaker 1: focus on doing what we were elected to do. And

1101
01:04:20,080 --> 01:04:22,400
Speaker 1: I always say, we make this job too complicated. That's

1102
01:04:22,440 --> 01:04:25,360
Speaker 1: a pretty basic thing to focus on. Don't get too complicated.

1103
01:04:25,480 --> 01:04:27,440
Speaker 1: Just do what you were elected to do. And we

1104
01:04:27,440 --> 01:04:31,480
Speaker 1: were certainly elected to build a border security wall. Border security,

1105
01:04:31,520 --> 01:04:35,320
Speaker 1: the wall, the shutdown, big issues looming right now as

1106
01:04:35,320 --> 01:04:38,720
Speaker 1: we head into the Christmas holiday just ahead. I want

1107
01:04:38,720 --> 01:04:41,200
Speaker 1: somebody who can shed light on all these things, and

1108
01:04:41,360 --> 01:04:44,439
Speaker 1: we've got one. Congressman Louie Gomer of the great State

1109
01:04:44,440 --> 01:04:46,520
Speaker 1: of Texas is with us now. Congressman Gomer, thanks so

1110
01:04:46,600 --> 01:04:49,240
Speaker 1: much for joining. Of course, thanks for having me on buck.

1111
01:04:50,000 --> 01:04:52,120
Speaker 1: Let's just start, if I may, with the shutdown. I mean,

1112
01:04:52,160 --> 01:04:54,960
Speaker 1: President Trump in that meeting with Schumer and Pelosi was saying,

1113
01:04:55,600 --> 01:04:58,880
Speaker 1: you know, basically, bring it. I'm gonna shut this. I'm

1114
01:04:58,880 --> 01:05:01,760
Speaker 1: gonna shut the government down unless you guys want to

1115
01:05:01,760 --> 01:05:04,760
Speaker 1: fund the wall. Do you think that the GOP is

1116
01:05:04,760 --> 01:05:06,720
Speaker 1: with them on this? I mean, is a shutdown a

1117
01:05:06,840 --> 01:05:11,760
Speaker 1: serious a serious threat from either side. It is a

1118
01:05:11,800 --> 01:05:16,640
Speaker 1: serious threat from the president, it's a serious threat from

1119
01:05:17,120 --> 01:05:20,600
Speaker 1: the majority of the Republicans. The only question remains as

1120
01:05:20,680 --> 01:05:25,560
Speaker 1: to whether I elected Republican leaders will have that same

1121
01:05:25,600 --> 01:05:30,640
Speaker 1: feeling and commitment, because apparently the President is being told, gee,

1122
01:05:30,840 --> 01:05:34,320
Speaker 1: if if we don't have the votes in the Senate,

1123
01:05:34,520 --> 01:05:37,120
Speaker 1: then there's no sense the House trying to pass it,

1124
01:05:37,600 --> 01:05:41,360
Speaker 1: which that sounds like the old deep state idea of

1125
01:05:41,400 --> 01:05:44,439
Speaker 1: when the truth is Heck, the best way to put

1126
01:05:44,520 --> 01:05:48,800
Speaker 1: pressure against to get the Senate to do something is

1127
01:05:48,880 --> 01:05:52,000
Speaker 1: for the House to pass it. And then once the

1128
01:05:52,000 --> 01:05:54,880
Speaker 1: House passes it, and I'm sure we'll pass it without

1129
01:05:55,120 --> 01:05:59,000
Speaker 1: an anti Pelosi's vote, but once the House passes it,

1130
01:05:59,200 --> 01:06:03,240
Speaker 1: then we can all be doing media and help our

1131
01:06:03,320 --> 01:06:06,479
Speaker 1: president put pressure on the Senate to get it done. Now,

1132
01:06:07,040 --> 01:06:10,440
Speaker 1: there is a huge problem there and trying to get

1133
01:06:10,640 --> 01:06:15,080
Speaker 1: sixty votes in the Senate, but there has been a

1134
01:06:15,120 --> 01:06:20,080
Speaker 1: way and to get this done under reconciliation. Paul Ryan

1135
01:06:20,240 --> 01:06:24,680
Speaker 1: was chairman of the Budget Committee. He has done this before.

1136
01:06:24,960 --> 01:06:27,280
Speaker 1: He knows how it's done. I brought it up to

1137
01:06:27,400 --> 01:06:30,040
Speaker 1: him weeks ago and I got a kind of an

1138
01:06:30,080 --> 01:06:34,680
Speaker 1: hour role. But but the truth is, there is a

1139
01:06:34,720 --> 01:06:39,160
Speaker 1: bill that would it just simply says we do an

1140
01:06:39,200 --> 01:06:45,080
Speaker 1: amendment to a budget resolution and make spending and in

1141
01:06:45,120 --> 01:06:48,440
Speaker 1: the bill is twenty five billion dollars. What you know

1142
01:06:48,480 --> 01:06:51,320
Speaker 1: it would likely or we're told it would likely cause

1143
01:06:51,480 --> 01:06:54,000
Speaker 1: is what we should have done, and actually what some

1144
01:06:54,040 --> 01:06:58,080
Speaker 1: Democrats have voted for before. But twenty five billion is

1145
01:06:58,120 --> 01:07:01,280
Speaker 1: mandatory spending and all the all that it will take

1146
01:07:01,440 --> 01:07:04,560
Speaker 1: is fifty or fifty one votes fifty because if there's

1147
01:07:04,600 --> 01:07:09,760
Speaker 1: a tie, then Mike Pence would certainly support the president. So, uh,

1148
01:07:10,000 --> 01:07:14,320
Speaker 1: there's no reason we wouldn't just amend a budget resolution

1149
01:07:14,520 --> 01:07:16,640
Speaker 1: so that we could do it with fifteen fifty one

1150
01:07:16,720 --> 01:07:20,280
Speaker 1: votes in the Senate and have twenty five billion. If

1151
01:07:20,280 --> 01:07:23,280
Speaker 1: you want to only go five and get a good start,

1152
01:07:23,320 --> 01:07:27,600
Speaker 1: then fine, but there's no reason that we shouldn't go

1153
01:07:27,640 --> 01:07:31,320
Speaker 1: ahead and pass it Congress. What is the what is

1154
01:07:31,320 --> 01:07:34,920
Speaker 1: the Democrat offer right now in terms of you know,

1155
01:07:34,960 --> 01:07:37,520
Speaker 1: what they would want signed when it comes to the border,

1156
01:07:37,720 --> 01:07:43,040
Speaker 1: and what is the what is the GOP requests? Well,

1157
01:07:43,080 --> 01:07:45,240
Speaker 1: they don't want to they do not want a wall.

1158
01:07:45,320 --> 01:07:47,720
Speaker 1: They do not want the president to have any kind

1159
01:07:47,720 --> 01:07:51,040
Speaker 1: of win at all, and they're scared to death of

1160
01:07:51,120 --> 01:07:55,040
Speaker 1: him being able to say in twenty twenty that ill

1161
01:07:55,320 --> 01:07:57,080
Speaker 1: I told you we'd get a wall built, and we

1162
01:07:57,200 --> 01:07:59,880
Speaker 1: built it. But they're offering what one point one point

1163
01:08:00,080 --> 01:08:03,280
Speaker 1: five billion, Congressman, they're offering one point five billion? What

1164
01:08:03,360 --> 01:08:09,120
Speaker 1: is that money for the one point five it's supposedly

1165
01:08:09,280 --> 01:08:13,160
Speaker 1: to get a start going, But that's that would not

1166
01:08:13,400 --> 01:08:16,120
Speaker 1: be enough, and the Democrats know that that would not

1167
01:08:16,200 --> 01:08:19,160
Speaker 1: be enough for the President to say, look at the

1168
01:08:19,200 --> 01:08:22,160
Speaker 1: wall we've built, we built it where we need it. Well,

1169
01:08:22,439 --> 01:08:25,960
Speaker 1: you'd get a good start, but it would still be

1170
01:08:26,040 --> 01:08:28,120
Speaker 1: an issue that they would beat him over the head

1171
01:08:28,200 --> 01:08:32,160
Speaker 1: with in twenty nineteen, twenty twenty saying, ah, look, you

1172
01:08:32,200 --> 01:08:35,000
Speaker 1: know he promised the wall, and they know they're going

1173
01:08:35,040 --> 01:08:38,360
Speaker 1: to do everything they can from keeping him from having

1174
01:08:38,400 --> 01:08:41,000
Speaker 1: something he can point to and say, see, don't just

1175
01:08:41,920 --> 01:08:44,639
Speaker 1: what was Speaker Pelosi or soon to be Speaker Pelosi?

1176
01:08:44,680 --> 01:08:47,840
Speaker 1: Pardon me, but what was Nancy Pelosi talking about in

1177
01:08:47,880 --> 01:08:49,880
Speaker 1: the Oval office when she was saying, you don't have

1178
01:08:49,960 --> 01:08:52,680
Speaker 1: the votes? It seems to me that one, how does

1179
01:08:52,680 --> 01:08:57,800
Speaker 1: she know that? In two that defies belief, Well, she

1180
01:08:57,920 --> 01:09:01,240
Speaker 1: has said that before that gee that we're focused, don't

1181
01:09:01,280 --> 01:09:04,559
Speaker 1: have the votes, and we've surprised her own votes before

1182
01:09:04,640 --> 01:09:08,160
Speaker 1: when we did have the votes. So I think this

1183
01:09:08,160 --> 01:09:11,719
Speaker 1: would be one where we could and should surprise her again.

1184
01:09:12,120 --> 01:09:14,040
Speaker 1: But yeah, she was saying, we didn't have the votes

1185
01:09:14,080 --> 01:09:15,800
Speaker 1: in the House. You don't have the votes in the

1186
01:09:15,840 --> 01:09:19,920
Speaker 1: House to do this. I think, you know we we

1187
01:09:20,000 --> 01:09:23,160
Speaker 1: sure ought to give it a good goal. Now, Tom Delay,

1188
01:09:23,240 --> 01:09:25,160
Speaker 1: when he was a majority leader, he said, you know,

1189
01:09:25,200 --> 01:09:27,439
Speaker 1: when I get over two hundred votes, I'm ready to

1190
01:09:27,479 --> 01:09:29,920
Speaker 1: go to the floor because I figure, you know, with

1191
01:09:30,360 --> 01:09:33,000
Speaker 1: especially if we have the president's House, when we get help.

1192
01:09:33,040 --> 01:09:35,639
Speaker 1: When we get to the floor, then we can get

1193
01:09:35,680 --> 01:09:40,400
Speaker 1: the last votes we need. So we'll see. I think

1194
01:09:40,439 --> 01:09:43,800
Speaker 1: that's the way to do it, you know, get get

1195
01:09:43,800 --> 01:09:46,080
Speaker 1: it on the floor, get it past. But I do

1196
01:09:46,200 --> 01:09:52,000
Speaker 1: think it only makes sense that we pass an amended

1197
01:09:52,040 --> 01:09:54,840
Speaker 1: budget resolution that allows us to do it under the

1198
01:09:54,880 --> 01:09:58,840
Speaker 1: reconciliation process. And the only I can only think of

1199
01:09:58,960 --> 01:10:02,680
Speaker 1: one reason why we wouldn't do that, and that is

1200
01:10:02,960 --> 01:10:07,280
Speaker 1: if our own elected Republican leaders don't want to really

1201
01:10:07,400 --> 01:10:11,040
Speaker 1: fund even five billion four Is that on the Senate

1202
01:10:11,080 --> 01:10:13,519
Speaker 1: side or are you worried about some GOP House members

1203
01:10:13,560 --> 01:10:16,679
Speaker 1: as well? I'll send the Senate side, Oh my gosh,

1204
01:10:16,760 --> 01:10:21,360
Speaker 1: the House isn't even solid on this. Well, we're solid

1205
01:10:21,439 --> 01:10:25,240
Speaker 1: except for our leadership. I think, But I go back

1206
01:10:25,280 --> 01:10:28,439
Speaker 1: two years ago, November two years ago, when I got

1207
01:10:28,520 --> 01:10:33,080
Speaker 1: up at conference and I said, all right, look, nobody

1208
01:10:33,120 --> 01:10:36,320
Speaker 1: has signed up to run against you, Paul, but I

1209
01:10:36,360 --> 01:10:41,120
Speaker 1: would like to know where you stand because you have

1210
01:10:41,280 --> 01:10:44,800
Speaker 1: not supported a wall in the past, you have not

1211
01:10:45,080 --> 01:10:49,800
Speaker 1: supported a total border security, and those are the two

1212
01:10:49,840 --> 01:10:52,559
Speaker 1: biggest things the president ran on, So I need to

1213
01:10:52,600 --> 01:10:56,040
Speaker 1: know are you going to help the president get a

1214
01:10:56,080 --> 01:11:00,000
Speaker 1: wall built and totally secure the border? And he said,

1215
01:11:00,360 --> 01:11:04,080
Speaker 1: you're not understanding what We're getting along great, And I said, no,

1216
01:11:04,360 --> 01:11:08,000
Speaker 1: that's not my question. My question is will you help

1217
01:11:08,080 --> 01:11:10,840
Speaker 1: the president get the wall built and secure the border?

1218
01:11:10,840 --> 01:11:13,639
Speaker 1: And he said, look, we're talking virtually every day. We're

1219
01:11:13,640 --> 01:11:16,639
Speaker 1: getting along great, there's no problems there. I said, that's

1220
01:11:16,680 --> 01:11:19,640
Speaker 1: not my question. My question is will you help the

1221
01:11:19,680 --> 01:11:23,799
Speaker 1: president build get the wall built and totally secure the border.

1222
01:11:23,920 --> 01:11:26,560
Speaker 1: And he said, we're doing fine. You're misreading this, and

1223
01:11:27,280 --> 01:11:31,680
Speaker 1: then our conference chair said, the gentleman's time has expired,

1224
01:11:32,040 --> 01:11:34,200
Speaker 1: and so I never got an answer. My question that

1225
01:11:34,280 --> 01:11:37,439
Speaker 1: was two years ago, right after Thomason govern we got

1226
01:11:37,439 --> 01:11:38,800
Speaker 1: to run into a break in just a moment. I

1227
01:11:38,920 --> 01:11:41,800
Speaker 1: sure a quick question for you if we can't get

1228
01:11:41,840 --> 01:11:44,880
Speaker 1: this through. Whether whether the shutdown you know, doesn't go

1229
01:11:44,920 --> 01:11:48,280
Speaker 1: the way of the Republicans or whatever. The final dispensation

1230
01:11:48,320 --> 01:11:51,200
Speaker 1: of that is kind the president just order the military

1231
01:11:51,240 --> 01:11:54,160
Speaker 1: to do this. How does that work? Well, you know,

1232
01:11:54,240 --> 01:11:57,760
Speaker 1: actually Bucky laid the groundwork earlier this year when he

1233
01:11:57,800 --> 01:12:02,000
Speaker 1: said this was a national emergence. See, and for heaven's sake,

1234
01:12:02,040 --> 01:12:05,800
Speaker 1: we had this massive caravan coming. It really was an invasion.

1235
01:12:06,800 --> 01:12:10,080
Speaker 1: We know that there were more people killed in the

1236
01:12:10,160 --> 01:12:15,160
Speaker 1: last year from the drugs. Most likely they came through

1237
01:12:15,280 --> 01:12:20,720
Speaker 1: or from Mexico, the drug cartels. And that's as horrible

1238
01:12:21,600 --> 01:12:26,760
Speaker 1: and deadly as Vietnam was. That's more deaths of Americans

1239
01:12:26,800 --> 01:12:29,599
Speaker 1: than we lost in Vietnam in the whole Vietnam War.

1240
01:12:30,200 --> 01:12:34,000
Speaker 1: So he would have every legitimate basis for claiming it

1241
01:12:34,040 --> 01:12:37,360
Speaker 1: is a national emergency because it is. It is an

1242
01:12:37,400 --> 01:12:41,080
Speaker 1: invasion because it is, and with that he can use

1243
01:12:41,120 --> 01:12:45,640
Speaker 1: the military however he needs to to stop this national emergency,

1244
01:12:45,800 --> 01:12:49,160
Speaker 1: stopped the invasion. Congressman Louis Gohmer to the Great State

1270
01:14:06,960 --> 01:14:10,920
Speaker 1: this latest twist, this sort of premature parliamentary ejaculation, that's

1271
01:14:10,960 --> 01:14:14,080
Speaker 1: put the light to the claim blood. She sticks to

1272
01:14:14,200 --> 01:14:19,479

1273
01:14:19,560 --> 01:14:22,479

1275

Speaker 1: says again, I'm trying to say, the honorable lady. If

1276
01:14:28,200 --> 01:14:30,000
Speaker 1: she looks carefully, I think she'll see that I'm not

1277
01:14:30,040 --> 01:14:37,240
Speaker 1: capable of a parliamentary ejaculation. WHOA, the range is hot

1278
01:14:37,240 --> 01:14:40,800
Speaker 1: on the flora Parliament there in the UK. That was

1279
01:14:40,840 --> 01:14:44,160
Speaker 1: the Prime Minister Teresa May, responding to a member of

1280
01:14:44,200 --> 01:14:48,320
Speaker 1: Parliament there you heard. The exchange was spicy, what's going

1281
01:14:48,360 --> 01:14:50,360
Speaker 1: on with Brexit? What's going on in the UK? And

1282
01:14:50,520 --> 01:14:52,559
Speaker 1: maybe a little time for the yellow vest if we've

1283
01:14:52,560 --> 01:14:56,200
Speaker 1: got it, We've We've been joined by our friend Rahiim Kasam.

1284
01:14:56,320 --> 01:15:00,360
Speaker 1: He is formerly an advisor in Nigel Farage. He's also

1285
01:15:00,400 --> 01:15:03,439
Speaker 1: a Claremont Fellow author of No Go Zones. Raheem, what's

1286
01:15:03,520 --> 01:15:08,320
Speaker 1: up my friend? Hey buck? How you do it? I'm

1287
01:15:08,360 --> 01:15:10,280
Speaker 1: all right, man, I mean it looks like the MP's

1288
01:15:10,320 --> 01:15:11,720
Speaker 1: at least get to have a bit of fun on

1289
01:15:11,760 --> 01:15:16,200
Speaker 1: the floor of Parliament there, what is the ladies? I mean,

1290
01:15:16,200 --> 01:15:18,760
Speaker 1: we know, actually we've got sound here. Theresa May just

1291
01:15:18,920 --> 01:15:21,479
Speaker 1: barely held on to her seat. Play that clip, guys.

1292
01:15:22,240 --> 01:15:26,240
Speaker 1: As a leader of the Conservative Party. The number of

1293
01:15:26,479 --> 01:15:31,320
Speaker 1: votes cast in favor of having competence and Terisa May

1294
01:15:31,600 --> 01:15:35,360
Speaker 1: was two hundred and thea was one hundred and seventeen.

1295
01:15:36,720 --> 01:15:39,280
Speaker 1: Under the rules set out in the Constitution of the

1296
01:15:39,280 --> 01:15:43,040
Speaker 1: Conservative Party, there's no further confidence vote can take place

1297
01:15:43,560 --> 01:15:49,080
Speaker 1: at all, right, so she raheim so that the British

1298
01:15:49,120 --> 01:15:53,320
Speaker 1: PM survives a no competence vote. Brexits at the heart

1299
01:15:53,360 --> 01:15:57,559
Speaker 1: of this. What the heck is going on? Yeah, I

1300
01:15:57,640 --> 01:16:00,920
Speaker 1: think where's the start? I mean. Theresa May was nearly

1301
01:16:01,680 --> 01:16:09,240
Speaker 1: prematurely ejected as the Prime Minister today after forty eight

1302
01:16:09,240 --> 01:16:14,400
Speaker 1: members of her own governing party, the Conservative Party, put

1303
01:16:14,439 --> 01:16:17,839
Speaker 1: in letters to the head of what's called the nineteen

1304
01:16:17,960 --> 01:16:22,400
Speaker 1: twenty two Committee, which sort of governs the rules inside

1305
01:16:22,400 --> 01:16:24,840
Speaker 1: the Conservative Party. They didn't think she was doing a

1306
01:16:24,840 --> 01:16:28,120
Speaker 1: good enough job with Brexit. It triggered a no confidence

1307
01:16:28,200 --> 01:16:31,040
Speaker 1: vote and she won that vote today amongst her own

1308
01:16:31,160 --> 01:16:34,360
Speaker 1: parliamentary party. So she hangs on and as you heard

1309
01:16:34,360 --> 01:16:37,080
Speaker 1: in that clip, they can't challenge her for another twelve months.

1310
01:16:37,280 --> 01:16:40,840
Speaker 1: But what this means for Brexit specifically is that you

1311
01:16:40,920 --> 01:16:43,880
Speaker 1: now have a bad deal that she's negotiated where we

1312
01:16:44,000 --> 01:16:46,639
Speaker 1: end up paying the British end up paying sixty odd

1313
01:16:46,640 --> 01:16:51,520
Speaker 1: billion dollars into the europe into the European Commission's coppers,

1314
01:16:51,560 --> 01:16:55,400
Speaker 1: and what we get in response is basically nothing in return.

1315
01:16:55,720 --> 01:16:57,560
Speaker 1: And you'll forgive the noise. In the background, I have

1316
01:16:57,920 --> 01:16:59,920
Speaker 1: some policeman doing wheelings in front of the move back.

1317
01:17:00,000 --> 01:17:02,160
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say, are you writing a tuck tuck somewhere?

1318
01:17:02,200 --> 01:17:06,240
Speaker 1: Are you in Southeast Asia? What's going on here? It's

1319
01:17:06,240 --> 01:17:09,600
Speaker 1: absolutely gisarreb. Outside of the Trump International itself, there's a

1320
01:17:09,640 --> 01:17:13,280
Speaker 1: policeman doing wheelies in front of me. Right, he saw

1321
01:17:13,320 --> 01:17:16,600
Speaker 1: a man of action. Everybody international man of mystery. So

1322
01:17:16,760 --> 01:17:19,240
Speaker 1: you know, right here with the Brexit thing, people in

1323
01:17:19,240 --> 01:17:21,799
Speaker 1: this country we look at what's going on in Europe

1324
01:17:21,800 --> 01:17:24,479
Speaker 1: mostly and we take it as either cautionary tales or

1325
01:17:24,479 --> 01:17:27,240
Speaker 1: maybe inspiration or some combination of the two for what's

1326
01:17:27,240 --> 01:17:29,840
Speaker 1: going on here. Right, that's why Europe tends out. Plus

1327
01:17:29,880 --> 01:17:31,960
Speaker 1: you know, you guys, you're you're kind of our cultural

1328
01:17:32,040 --> 01:17:34,559
Speaker 1: forebears and all that stuff, so we appreciate that. But

1329
01:17:35,040 --> 01:17:37,639
Speaker 1: you know, Brexit move the markets here earlier in the week,

1330
01:17:37,920 --> 01:17:41,160
Speaker 1: people were all freaked out about it, and is the

1331
01:17:41,160 --> 01:17:43,280
Speaker 1: long and short of basically that the elites in the

1332
01:17:43,360 --> 01:17:46,439
Speaker 1: UK want to find a way to just override the

1333
01:17:46,520 --> 01:17:51,080
Speaker 1: referendum that they didn't that didn't go their way. Well,

1334
01:17:51,160 --> 01:17:53,000
Speaker 1: not that they wanted to find a way, they actually

1335
01:17:53,040 --> 01:17:55,080
Speaker 1: have found a way. And it's at the point now

1336
01:17:55,120 --> 01:17:58,360
Speaker 1: where you don't even have a deal or no deal scenario.

1337
01:17:58,479 --> 01:18:00,559
Speaker 1: Remember this is what we were talking about months ago,

1338
01:18:00,720 --> 01:18:02,639
Speaker 1: that we'd either get this really bad deal that Theresa

1339
01:18:02,640 --> 01:18:04,679
Speaker 1: May was offering us, or on the March twenty ninth

1340
01:18:04,720 --> 01:18:06,800
Speaker 1: deadline when we're supposed to leave the European Union, we

1341
01:18:06,840 --> 01:18:08,679
Speaker 1: get no deal and we were revert to World Trade

1342
01:18:08,760 --> 01:18:11,800
Speaker 1: Organization rules. Well, then no deal scenario looks off at

1343
01:18:11,840 --> 01:18:14,400
Speaker 1: the table now, so we either get a bad deal

1344
01:18:14,720 --> 01:18:17,879
Speaker 1: or a slightly less bad deal. And that's what Theresa

1345
01:18:17,920 --> 01:18:22,559
Speaker 1: May and her romaniac colleagues as we call them. They

1346
01:18:22,880 --> 01:18:24,880
Speaker 1: they've orchestrated this over the last two years then it

1347
01:18:24,920 --> 01:18:28,040
Speaker 1: looks like they're about to actually get a great victory

1348
01:18:28,320 --> 01:18:32,479
Speaker 1: in favor of the EU over Britain. So no sovereignty back,

1349
01:18:32,920 --> 01:18:36,000
Speaker 1: very few immigration controls back. We end up paying massive

1350
01:18:36,000 --> 01:18:38,960
Speaker 1: amounts of I mean tens of billions of pounds into

1351
01:18:39,040 --> 01:18:44,200
Speaker 1: European Commission scoffers. No negotiation over our fishing waters, which

1352
01:18:44,600 --> 01:18:46,280
Speaker 1: was a major part of the break to campaign as well,

1353
01:18:46,280 --> 01:18:49,519
Speaker 1: getting back our sovereign right to fish unquoted in our

1354
01:18:49,560 --> 01:18:52,560
Speaker 1: own waters, in our own territorial waters. And none of

1355
01:18:52,640 --> 01:18:56,640
Speaker 1: this has happened, so breaksit now looks to be not

1356
01:18:56,680 --> 01:18:59,679
Speaker 1: breasit at all, And when March the twenty ninth rolls around,

1357
01:19:00,040 --> 01:19:02,320
Speaker 1: it looks like what we're going to have instead, it's

1358
01:19:02,320 --> 01:19:05,840
Speaker 1: sort of what they call associate membership status of the

1359
01:19:05,840 --> 01:19:08,360
Speaker 1: European Union, which is the worst of both worlds. You

1360
01:19:08,439 --> 01:19:11,160
Speaker 1: take their rules, you give them cash, but you don't

1361
01:19:11,160 --> 01:19:13,559
Speaker 1: get any representation in the Council of Ministers or in

1362
01:19:13,560 --> 01:19:16,720
Speaker 1: the European Parliament. Wow. So the elites in the UK

1363
01:19:16,840 --> 01:19:22,000
Speaker 1: and their infinite wisdom have effectively managed taxation without representation

1364
01:19:22,200 --> 01:19:27,879
Speaker 1: in the biggest supernational body in the world. As exactly

1365
01:19:27,960 --> 01:19:30,479
Speaker 1: what has happened and how I keep describing it, and

1366
01:19:30,960 --> 01:19:34,800
Speaker 1: it's been unfortunately not just Theresa Ma's fault. It's the

1367
01:19:34,880 --> 01:19:37,600
Speaker 1: Conservative Party's fault. You know, I spend a lot of

1368
01:19:37,640 --> 01:19:40,040
Speaker 1: my time here in the United States, and I understand

1369
01:19:40,120 --> 01:19:44,360
Speaker 1: that the Republican Party has a lot of rhinos within it. Well,

1370
01:19:44,400 --> 01:19:48,360
Speaker 1: we have a Conservative Party that is almost entirely constituted

1371
01:19:48,479 --> 01:19:52,479
Speaker 1: of Conservatives in name only, and it's going to end

1372
01:19:52,600 --> 01:19:54,840
Speaker 1: very badly for the party over the next two to

1373
01:19:54,920 --> 01:19:57,080
Speaker 1: five years when their will that have to be another

1374
01:19:57,080 --> 01:19:59,720
Speaker 1: general election and people scratch their heads and say, well,

1375
01:19:59,720 --> 01:20:02,200
Speaker 1: why would vote for this Conservative Party anyway? And you

1376
01:20:02,240 --> 01:20:04,559
Speaker 1: know who's the leader in waiting if if that happens,

1377
01:20:04,800 --> 01:20:06,840
Speaker 1: it's the hard left Jeremy Corbyn, who's the leader of

1378
01:20:06,840 --> 01:20:10,519
Speaker 1: the Labor Party. He's sort of akin to your Bernie Sanders. Man.

1379
01:20:10,560 --> 01:20:12,800
Speaker 1: That does not sound good. We're gonna we're gonna help.

1380
01:20:12,800 --> 01:20:14,720
Speaker 1: You have to help our our brothers and sisters have

1381
01:20:14,840 --> 01:20:17,600
Speaker 1: written out if it goes that way, because the taxation

1382
01:20:17,640 --> 01:20:19,840
Speaker 1: without representation. Then you add on top of that a

1383
01:20:19,840 --> 01:20:22,960
Speaker 1: little dose of Sandernista socialism, things that things are going

1384
01:20:23,000 --> 01:20:24,479
Speaker 1: to get rough. I just wanted to do what your

1385
01:20:24,479 --> 01:20:26,960
Speaker 1: thoughts ring him on on the latest also on the

1386
01:20:27,160 --> 01:20:30,200
Speaker 1: yellow vests, these protests kinda handed to the French man.

1387
01:20:30,320 --> 01:20:33,960
Speaker 1: I mean, their protests put our protesters to shame for

1388
01:20:34,000 --> 01:20:36,559
Speaker 1: whatever that's worth. These guys go when they go, they

1389
01:20:36,600 --> 01:20:39,840
Speaker 1: go hard. But what's the latest here in terms of

1390
01:20:40,120 --> 01:20:42,280
Speaker 1: one what you think they're well, you know, what's the

1391
01:20:42,320 --> 01:20:45,280
Speaker 1: status of the demands and the negotiations? And two what

1392
01:20:45,360 --> 01:20:46,880
Speaker 1: do you take away from this for all of us?

1393
01:20:49,320 --> 01:20:51,120
Speaker 1: You know, in twenty sixteen, when we had the breaks

1394
01:20:51,160 --> 01:20:53,280
Speaker 1: Ait referendum and then we had the election of president

1395
01:20:53,280 --> 01:20:55,200
Speaker 1: and Trump, I turned around to some of my French

1396
01:20:55,240 --> 01:20:57,720
Speaker 1: friends and I said to them, why why aren't you

1397
01:20:57,720 --> 01:21:01,559
Speaker 1: guys following this this revolution? And I'll remember I remember

1398
01:21:01,560 --> 01:21:04,160
Speaker 1: one of them said to me, she said, you know,

1399
01:21:04,200 --> 01:21:06,559
Speaker 1: we French, we take longer to do things, but when

1400
01:21:06,560 --> 01:21:09,439
Speaker 1: we do them, they're bigger. And that's exactly what's happened.

1401
01:21:09,479 --> 01:21:13,120
Speaker 1: Two years after the revolutionary year of twenty sixteen. The

1402
01:21:13,200 --> 01:21:16,080
Speaker 1: French are now on the streets. You know, they're burning things,

1403
01:21:16,120 --> 01:21:19,040
Speaker 1: they're blocking streets, there's obviously a lot of a lot

1404
01:21:19,120 --> 01:21:22,439
Speaker 1: of violence going on. They're doing it bigger. The reason

1405
01:21:22,600 --> 01:21:26,800
Speaker 1: is very simple. Emmanuel Macron positioned himself as a centrist

1406
01:21:26,840 --> 01:21:29,160
Speaker 1: candidate against Marine Lapin, who was viewed as the far

1407
01:21:29,320 --> 01:21:32,720
Speaker 1: right candidate in the presidential election. But he's governed effectively

1408
01:21:32,880 --> 01:21:36,200
Speaker 1: as a as a corporatist. He's given big tax breaks

1409
01:21:36,200 --> 01:21:40,479
Speaker 1: to the super wealthy in France, he's cut the minimum

1410
01:21:40,479 --> 01:21:42,960
Speaker 1: wage or failed to raise the minimum wage in mind

1411
01:21:43,000 --> 01:21:45,719
Speaker 1: with what the French were expecting. I mean, effectively, Frances

1412
01:21:45,720 --> 01:21:48,280
Speaker 1: the socialist country. And this is not a conservative protest

1413
01:21:48,320 --> 01:21:51,280
Speaker 1: you're seeing. It's sort of got elements of populism to it.

1414
01:21:51,439 --> 01:21:53,759
Speaker 1: But by and large, the French just want more freebees

1415
01:21:53,800 --> 01:21:56,080
Speaker 1: and that's what they're out protesting about at the moment.

1416
01:21:56,120 --> 01:21:59,080
Speaker 1: Now Macron will face her no confidence vote himself this week.

1417
01:21:59,680 --> 01:22:02,400
Speaker 1: He will probably just about win it as well, just

1418
01:22:02,400 --> 01:22:05,439
Speaker 1: just like Theresa May. But but when you look at

1419
01:22:05,479 --> 01:22:08,320
Speaker 1: the narrative from the United States, when you see the

1420
01:22:08,360 --> 01:22:10,840
Speaker 1: headlines in the Washington Post in the New York Times

1421
01:22:10,840 --> 01:22:15,559
Speaker 1: saying Trump is an unbelievably unpopular is approval ratings are terrible.

1422
01:22:15,680 --> 01:22:18,599
Speaker 1: Everybody wants him impeached. They have almost nothing to say

1423
01:22:18,640 --> 01:22:21,320
Speaker 1: about the fact that Merkel is now has had to

1424
01:22:21,320 --> 01:22:24,280
Speaker 1: stand down, May has had a no confidence and mc

1425
01:22:24,280 --> 01:22:26,200
Speaker 1: corman is having a no confidence though. These are the

1426
01:22:26,280 --> 01:22:29,360
Speaker 1: three people that they've been telling us are the new

1427
01:22:29,439 --> 01:22:35,120
Speaker 1: leaders of the international neoliberal rules based order, and they

1428
01:22:35,120 --> 01:22:39,400
Speaker 1: can't even hold majorities and confidences within their own populations.

1429
01:22:39,600 --> 01:22:44,120
Speaker 1: America actually, going now to Europe looks like a political haven.

1430
01:22:44,360 --> 01:22:46,439
Speaker 1: It looks like a look, it looks like a really

1431
01:22:46,479 --> 01:22:49,559
Speaker 1: stable place to be. And isn't that extraordinary when you

1432
01:22:49,600 --> 01:22:51,640
Speaker 1: think about what you have to deal with every day

1433
01:22:51,680 --> 01:22:53,840
Speaker 1: and the press confidences and the Oval Office and all

1434
01:22:53,880 --> 01:22:56,320
Speaker 1: of that, it actually looks like the most stable country

1435
01:22:56,400 --> 01:22:59,519
Speaker 1: right now? Where's this all heading? In your opinion? In Europe?

1436
01:22:59,520 --> 01:23:01,320
Speaker 1: I mean, I know, look, you were an advisor in

1437
01:23:01,400 --> 01:23:05,519
Speaker 1: Nigel Farage. You're very close to some of the movements

1438
01:23:05,520 --> 01:23:08,120
Speaker 1: over there that are trying to re establish some degree

1439
01:23:08,120 --> 01:23:11,559
Speaker 1: of sovereign team and given the failures of the kind

1440
01:23:11,600 --> 01:23:14,960
Speaker 1: of elite consensus folks over there, right, I mean, they're

1441
01:23:14,960 --> 01:23:16,720
Speaker 1: not really the consensus of the people. But you know,

1442
01:23:16,720 --> 01:23:18,960
Speaker 1: the establishment says, no, no no, no, try this person, you know,

1443
01:23:19,000 --> 01:23:21,439
Speaker 1: the trimac Kral, He'll get it done. Where does this

1444
01:23:21,479 --> 01:23:26,080
Speaker 1: all go next? Yeah? Look, it's not going anywhere good,

1445
01:23:26,600 --> 01:23:28,680
Speaker 1: you know. I I try and I try and keep

1446
01:23:28,680 --> 01:23:31,439
Speaker 1: a happy face on most of the time. But when

1447
01:23:31,479 --> 01:23:34,280
Speaker 1: you do project these things forward, you know the establishment

1448
01:23:34,360 --> 01:23:37,120
Speaker 1: is doubling down. When President Trump said yesterday, you know

1449
01:23:37,160 --> 01:23:39,800
Speaker 1: if I if I get impeached, there'll be you know,

1450
01:23:39,920 --> 01:23:43,799
Speaker 1: riots or revolution, he was absolutely right, because we're seeing

1451
01:23:43,840 --> 01:23:46,320
Speaker 1: that taking place in Europe at the moment. It's not

1452
01:23:46,400 --> 01:23:49,559
Speaker 1: going on in Poland where you have a strong conservative government.

1453
01:23:49,560 --> 01:23:50,960
Speaker 1: It's not going on in Hungary where you have a

1454
01:23:50,960 --> 01:23:53,599
Speaker 1: strong conservative government. It's not happening in Austria. It's happening

1455
01:23:53,640 --> 01:23:58,400
Speaker 1: in these these these lishy washy multiculturalist countries like Britain,

1456
01:23:58,560 --> 01:24:03,559
Speaker 1: like France, Germany, and unfortunately, the establishment in those countries

1457
01:24:03,680 --> 01:24:06,000
Speaker 1: keeps doubling down. We're not going to listen to the people.

1458
01:24:06,320 --> 01:24:08,960
Speaker 1: We're gonna figure out ways to suppress their voices, to

1459
01:24:09,000 --> 01:24:11,960
Speaker 1: suppress their votes, to not do what they tell us

1460
01:24:11,960 --> 01:24:14,160
Speaker 1: to do at the ballot box. And so, I mean,

1461
01:24:14,160 --> 01:24:17,840
Speaker 1: if you think the Giljean the yellow vest protests have

1462
01:24:17,920 --> 01:24:19,880
Speaker 1: been violent, I've got to say I don't think you

1463
01:24:20,439 --> 01:24:22,479
Speaker 1: don't think you've seen nothing yet. I think it's going

1464
01:24:22,520 --> 01:24:25,040
Speaker 1: to get much much worse in the next three to

1465
01:24:25,120 --> 01:24:28,400
Speaker 1: five years. We're going to see full blown revolutions in

1466
01:24:28,400 --> 01:24:32,240
Speaker 1: these countries. Rahim Kassam. Everybody, No Go Zones is his book.

1493
01:25:48,920 --> 01:25:52,120
Speaker 1: announced Who's pulling this country out of the Paris Climate Accords.

1494
01:25:52,640 --> 01:25:56,240
Speaker 1: To hear the politicians and television news chintuggers react, you'd

1495
01:25:56,240 --> 01:26:00,799
Speaker 1: think it was the worst natural catastrophe. Wellever, what happened

1496
01:26:00,880 --> 01:26:05,360
Speaker 1: yesterday on the climate issue is an embarrassment to a country.

1497
01:26:05,479 --> 01:26:08,280
Speaker 1: It should be an embarrassment to him personally for how

1498
01:26:08,320 --> 01:26:11,519
Speaker 1: he answers to his grandchildren. People are going to die,

1499
01:26:12,479 --> 01:26:16,920
Speaker 1: habitat will be destroyed, seas will rise, insects will spread.

1500
01:26:17,040 --> 01:26:19,400
Speaker 1: This will be the day that the United States resigned

1501
01:26:19,439 --> 01:26:21,920
Speaker 1: as the leader of the free world. He is not

1502
01:26:22,040 --> 01:26:25,880
Speaker 1: helping the forgotten American He is hurting them. Their kids

1503
01:26:25,880 --> 01:26:28,960
Speaker 1: will have worse asthma in the summer. The president who

1504
01:26:29,000 --> 01:26:33,200
Speaker 1: talked about putting America first has now put America last.

1505
01:26:35,560 --> 01:26:38,400
Speaker 1: That was the reaction, just as a little trip down

1506
01:26:38,479 --> 01:26:42,519
Speaker 1: memory lane that we got from much of the elite media.

1507
01:26:42,560 --> 01:26:45,280
Speaker 1: Obviously Tucker was calling it out, and I completely agree

1508
01:26:45,280 --> 01:26:50,040
Speaker 1: with Tucker. But when the Paris Climate Agreement went through,

1509
01:26:50,080 --> 01:26:53,760
Speaker 1: I mean, this is something that Obama really Obama really

1510
01:26:53,800 --> 01:26:58,960
Speaker 1: showed his internationalist streak here on the whole Paris Climate agreement,

1511
01:26:59,000 --> 01:27:04,640
Speaker 1: meaning that US sovereignty, US legislative bodies, none of that

1512
01:27:04,720 --> 01:27:06,479
Speaker 1: really matters. All you need to do is show up

1513
01:27:06,479 --> 01:27:12,040
Speaker 1: with a bunch of fancy global and globalist bureaucrats and

1514
01:27:12,200 --> 01:27:13,680
Speaker 1: come up with some kind of an agreement. I mean,

1515
01:27:13,680 --> 01:27:16,320
Speaker 1: the Paris Climate Agreement, just just as a little trip

1516
01:27:16,360 --> 01:27:18,439
Speaker 1: down memory lane. Remember Trump pulled this out of this

1517
01:27:18,479 --> 01:27:21,920
Speaker 1: and he's right, you mean, the whole thing. I can't

1518
01:27:21,960 --> 01:27:25,800
Speaker 1: even talk to libs about climate change anymore. They're so wacko.

1519
01:27:26,280 --> 01:27:28,400
Speaker 1: They're so whacko about the whole thing. He can't have

1520
01:27:28,479 --> 01:27:31,040
Speaker 1: an What about the fact that people that have been

1521
01:27:31,080 --> 01:27:33,400
Speaker 1: saying this keep being wrong, They keeping You want me

1522
01:27:33,439 --> 01:27:35,360
Speaker 1: to you want me to not pay attention to the

1523
01:27:35,400 --> 01:27:39,880
Speaker 1: fact that the so called experts and the scientific consensus,

1524
01:27:39,880 --> 01:27:45,080
Speaker 1: which is really almost an oxymoron, especially on an issue

1525
01:27:45,120 --> 01:27:48,439
Speaker 1: as complicated as this consensus about what There's not a

1526
01:27:48,439 --> 01:27:50,880
Speaker 1: consensus about how much the temperature will rise or fall.

1527
01:27:51,000 --> 01:27:53,080
Speaker 1: There's not a consensus about the best way to deal

1528
01:27:53,080 --> 01:27:56,280
Speaker 1: with it. There's not a consensus about what the full

1529
01:27:56,479 --> 01:28:00,760
Speaker 1: implications will be or won't be. They just all get

1530
01:28:00,800 --> 01:28:02,680
Speaker 1: into this hive mind. I mean, this is just a

1531
01:28:02,760 --> 01:28:06,120
Speaker 1: mob mentality about all the climate. We've got to fix

1532
01:28:06,200 --> 01:28:09,439
Speaker 1: the climate. The Paris Climate Agreement. This is from the

1533
01:28:09,439 --> 01:28:13,719
Speaker 1: Paris Climate Agreements. The United Nations website here the United

1534
01:28:13,760 --> 01:28:17,479
Speaker 1: Nations Climate Change. It's fascinating stuff. Here's what it says.

1535
01:28:17,479 --> 01:28:20,559
Speaker 1: The Paris Climate Agreement central aim is to strengthen the

1536
01:28:20,640 --> 01:28:24,519
Speaker 1: global response to the threat of climate change by keeping

1537
01:28:24,520 --> 01:28:28,320
Speaker 1: a global temperature rise this century well below two degrees

1538
01:28:28,400 --> 01:28:32,479
Speaker 1: celsius above pre industrial levels, and to pursue efforts to

1539
01:28:32,520 --> 01:28:36,200
Speaker 1: limit the temperature increase even further to one point five

1540
01:28:36,280 --> 01:28:40,360
Speaker 1: degrees celsius. Additionally, the agreement aims to strengthen the ability

1541
01:28:40,400 --> 01:28:42,880
Speaker 1: of countries to deal with the impacts of climate change.

1542
01:28:43,160 --> 01:28:48,320
Speaker 1: To reach these ambitious goals, appropriate financial flows, a new

1543
01:28:48,360 --> 01:28:52,120
Speaker 1: technology framework, and an enhanced capacity building framework will we

1544
01:28:52,160 --> 01:28:55,479
Speaker 1: put in place, thus supporting action by developing countries and

1545
01:28:55,520 --> 01:29:00,120
Speaker 1: the most vulnerable countries. Okay, that last part, let's start

1546
01:29:00,160 --> 01:29:06,360
Speaker 1: that first. That is really just an excuse for global socialism.

1547
01:29:06,400 --> 01:29:09,160
Speaker 1: That's all. That is. The developed countries are going to

1548
01:29:09,200 --> 01:29:13,040
Speaker 1: pay for the less developed countries. The developed countries are

1549
01:29:13,040 --> 01:29:15,360
Speaker 1: going to have to build the infrastructure for the less

1550
01:29:15,400 --> 01:29:18,400
Speaker 1: developed countries. And the excuse is going to be, well,

1551
01:29:18,479 --> 01:29:20,559
Speaker 1: we got where we are because of all of our

1552
01:29:20,600 --> 01:29:24,400
Speaker 1: CO two emissions, So they're going to do us the

1553
01:29:24,479 --> 01:29:27,519
Speaker 1: big favor, the big solid these third world countries out

1554
01:29:27,560 --> 01:29:30,360
Speaker 1: there by letting us give them money so that they

1555
01:29:30,400 --> 01:29:34,519
Speaker 1: won't they won't go the carbon intensive economic group. By

1556
01:29:34,560 --> 01:29:37,320
Speaker 1: the way, this just makes people poorer. You know the

1557
01:29:37,400 --> 01:29:39,920
Speaker 1: problem with the climate change lunatics is that there's real

1558
01:29:40,040 --> 01:29:45,200
Speaker 1: damage done by their lunacy. This isn't something that does

1559
01:29:45,240 --> 01:29:48,919
Speaker 1: not have a cost. In fact, the economic costs are enormous,

1560
01:29:49,560 --> 01:29:53,479
Speaker 1: and you know, the countries involved in this are going

1561
01:29:53,520 --> 01:29:57,160
Speaker 1: to that. They're the ones that determine they call it

1562
01:29:57,240 --> 01:30:01,360
Speaker 1: quote naturally determined contributions, and every five years they're going

1563
01:30:01,360 --> 01:30:04,000
Speaker 1: to assess this. There's no mechanism for agreement here. I mean,

1564
01:30:04,040 --> 01:30:08,960
Speaker 1: this is just the faculty lounge in charge of the world.

1565
01:30:09,600 --> 01:30:14,880
Speaker 1: There's no accountability, there's no seriousness. It's just emotions and

1566
01:30:15,000 --> 01:30:19,639
Speaker 1: a whole lot of you know, kumbaya. Let's all hold hands,

1567
01:30:19,720 --> 01:30:25,240
Speaker 1: dance in a circle. It's crazy. And now we're seeing

1568
01:30:25,280 --> 01:30:28,519
Speaker 1: some of the implementation of this and when it finally

1569
01:30:28,680 --> 01:30:31,080
Speaker 1: hits people what this involves, it's really bad. That's what.

1570
01:30:31,120 --> 01:30:34,280
Speaker 1: That's what's happening in France. They realize you're going to

1571
01:30:34,320 --> 01:30:35,960
Speaker 1: add on We've got all these other problems and now

1572
01:30:35,960 --> 01:30:39,120
Speaker 1: you're going to add on fighting climate change to our bill. Please.

1573
01:30:39,400 --> 01:30:42,800
Speaker 1: I mean, here, here's what here's what Macron has had

1574
01:30:42,800 --> 01:30:46,320
Speaker 1: to say about a play clip too. I feel the anger,

1575
01:30:46,800 --> 01:30:50,919
Speaker 1: give us another chance. I want to see an immediate

1576
01:30:50,920 --> 01:30:53,360
Speaker 1: and real improvement and the salaries. And this is why

1577
01:30:53,439 --> 01:30:55,439
Speaker 1: I am ordering an end of the year bonus for

1578
01:30:55,520 --> 01:31:00,320
Speaker 1: all employees without any text. He's just having a give

1579
01:31:00,320 --> 01:31:01,880
Speaker 1: people a little a little tax cut of it, and

1580
01:31:01,920 --> 01:31:03,800
Speaker 1: it's basically trying to pay people off a little bit

1581
01:31:03,880 --> 01:31:07,360
Speaker 1: to calm down. He's trying. It's just this is the

1582
01:31:07,360 --> 01:31:12,200
Speaker 1: the president of France, desperate to try to regain some

1583
01:31:12,360 --> 01:31:15,840
Speaker 1: political stability under his feet and it's it's all. This

1584
01:31:15,920 --> 01:31:17,479
Speaker 1: was all because the climate change. He didn't have to

1585
01:31:17,520 --> 01:31:20,240
Speaker 1: deal with this problem. You know, the yellow vests, you

1586
01:31:20,280 --> 01:31:23,679
Speaker 1: know they're they're coming out, they're so upset, understandably so

1587
01:31:24,720 --> 01:31:28,519
Speaker 1: because you're really going to do this to them. You know,

1588
01:31:28,560 --> 01:31:32,000
Speaker 1: we do have wealth. Inequality is a very real thing,

1589
01:31:32,080 --> 01:31:35,960
Speaker 1: and it is the reason marks resonates with so many people.

1590
01:31:36,160 --> 01:31:39,720
Speaker 1: The reason socialism has appeal for so many people is

1591
01:31:39,720 --> 01:31:43,160
Speaker 1: because inequality in talents and in wealth and in life

1592
01:31:43,360 --> 01:31:48,560
Speaker 1: is real, and it's very easy to exploit the inequality

1593
01:31:48,600 --> 01:31:52,000
Speaker 1: that exists in order to turn it into resentment, because

1594
01:31:52,040 --> 01:31:56,000
Speaker 1: resentment then also spreads and becomes anger, and anger turns

1595
01:31:56,000 --> 01:31:59,720
Speaker 1: into mobilization, and mobilization gives power to the people who

1596
01:31:59,720 --> 01:32:06,920
Speaker 1: can control that anger, which then brings me to what's

1597
01:32:06,920 --> 01:32:08,720
Speaker 1: going on right now in Paris. Right he was just

1598
01:32:08,760 --> 01:32:10,880
Speaker 1: talking about a Playcliff three is the French ambassador of

1599
01:32:10,920 --> 01:32:14,800
Speaker 1: the US, and they have been rebellion also against our

1600
01:32:14,800 --> 01:32:17,960
Speaker 1: world government, to the government of President mccon. We has

1601
01:32:18,000 --> 01:32:21,720
Speaker 1: been has been trying to reform, reform France. When you

1602
01:32:21,760 --> 01:32:25,559
Speaker 1: are increasing the price of gas for the people, especially

1603
01:32:25,560 --> 01:32:28,240
Speaker 1: for the people leaving in the war areas. It has

1604
01:32:28,280 --> 01:32:31,360
Speaker 1: consequences on the standard of leaving, and I think that's

1605
01:32:31,400 --> 01:32:35,759
Speaker 1: what the French government didn't take into account. So now

1606
01:32:36,040 --> 01:32:41,759
Speaker 1: I think the President has decided to face Desny's problem. Yeah,

1607
01:32:41,840 --> 01:32:45,000
Speaker 1: because the president doesn't have a choice because a bunch

1608
01:32:45,000 --> 01:32:48,000
Speaker 1: of you know, hundreds of thousands of people are running

1609
01:32:48,000 --> 01:32:51,800
Speaker 1: around and yellow vess being like, guess what, mister technocrat

1610
01:32:51,960 --> 01:32:56,799
Speaker 1: want to be stop messing up because of climate change? Okay,

1611
01:32:56,920 --> 01:33:00,400
Speaker 1: we want better lives now, not in one hundred years.

1612
01:33:00,840 --> 01:33:02,920
Speaker 1: And you know what the French on this, I gotta

1613
01:33:02,960 --> 01:33:06,080
Speaker 1: agree with them. May we be in studio? Well, I

1614
01:33:06,160 --> 01:33:09,719
Speaker 1: understand that Donald Trump doesn't care. Kyleman makes a good point,

1615
01:33:09,720 --> 01:33:13,479
Speaker 1: he doesn't care, But why doesn't Mike Pompeo care? Right now?

1616
01:33:14,160 --> 01:33:17,920
Speaker 1: Are the pathetic deflections that we just heard when he

1617
01:33:18,000 --> 01:33:21,240
Speaker 1: appeared on Fox and Friends? Is that a patriot speaking?

1618
01:33:22,160 --> 01:33:26,439
Speaker 1: Or want to be dictator's butt boy? Dead serious? I'm asking,

1619
01:33:26,680 --> 01:33:33,480
Speaker 1: are these the words of a patriot? Whoa Mika Brzinsky?

1620
01:33:33,960 --> 01:33:37,000
Speaker 1: What is wrong with you? Well, there's a lot of

1621
01:33:37,000 --> 01:33:42,080
Speaker 1: answers to that question. She used that term a blank boy,

1622
01:33:42,080 --> 01:33:46,360
Speaker 1: which is a you know, it's one of those references

1623
01:33:46,439 --> 01:33:52,240
Speaker 1: that has an anti gay associations to it, obviously, and

1624
01:33:52,360 --> 01:33:54,280
Speaker 1: all you can do is think about the phrase, and

1625
01:33:54,360 --> 01:33:56,120
Speaker 1: you know, it all becomes very clear as to why

1626
01:33:56,160 --> 01:33:59,880
Speaker 1: this isn't a subtle This isn't a subtle homophobic remark.

1627
01:34:00,439 --> 01:34:04,880
Speaker 1: This isn't a subtle swipe at at people who are um,

1628
01:34:05,200 --> 01:34:08,960
Speaker 1: you know, same are same sex attracted. It's a it's

1629
01:34:08,960 --> 01:34:12,680
Speaker 1: a slur, and she went for it. She went for

1630
01:34:12,720 --> 01:34:17,240
Speaker 1: it because in the era of Trump, you see, there

1631
01:34:17,479 --> 01:34:23,720
Speaker 1: is such a psychosis among these elite media types that

1632
01:34:23,880 --> 01:34:30,240
Speaker 1: they're just stepping on these verbal bear traps left and right.

1633
01:34:30,920 --> 01:34:33,559
Speaker 1: And then of course they're under a completely different standard

1634
01:34:33,600 --> 01:34:37,680
Speaker 1: of of so called social media justice right there. There

1635
01:34:37,680 --> 01:34:40,080
Speaker 1: no one's gonna call for the firing of Mika Brazinski

1636
01:34:40,240 --> 01:34:42,439
Speaker 1: or she's you know, the suspension of Mika Briginski. She's

1637
01:34:42,479 --> 01:34:46,000
Speaker 1: way too big a deal for MSNBC. And you know,

1638
01:34:46,439 --> 01:34:49,960
Speaker 1: Meek and Joe are really representative of what it is

1639
01:34:50,000 --> 01:34:53,800
Speaker 1: that people don't like when they say the elites, um

1640
01:34:54,400 --> 01:34:57,080
Speaker 1: this is. This is very important and I'm thinking more

1641
01:34:57,120 --> 01:34:59,519
Speaker 1: and more in depth about this, and I may even

1642
01:34:59,560 --> 01:35:01,519
Speaker 1: be doing some writing on this in the in the

1643
01:35:01,640 --> 01:35:06,240
Speaker 1: not too distant future. Hint hint. But the problem with

1644
01:35:06,240 --> 01:35:09,160
Speaker 1: with our leads in this country is that they have

1645
01:35:09,479 --> 01:35:14,280
Speaker 1: influence but not skills. They have access and power, but

1646
01:35:14,479 --> 01:35:19,679
Speaker 1: not wisdom and knowledge. And they're a self perpetuating class

1647
01:35:19,840 --> 01:35:25,040
Speaker 1: based mostly upon a system that they have connections to

1648
01:35:25,120 --> 01:35:27,240
Speaker 1: and have figured out, instead of a system that is

1649
01:35:27,280 --> 01:35:32,920
Speaker 1: based on merit ability, skill and honestly worthiness. And Mika

1650
01:35:32,960 --> 01:35:35,400
Speaker 1: and Joe and their whole show really appeals to those

1651
01:35:35,520 --> 01:35:38,439
Speaker 1: kinds of people. And if you watch Morning Joe, the

1652
01:35:38,479 --> 01:35:41,840
Speaker 1: idea is that you're you're a sophisticated you know, you're

1653
01:35:41,880 --> 01:35:44,920
Speaker 1: you're with the big boys table, You're a sophisticated watcher

1654
01:35:44,960 --> 01:35:47,519
Speaker 1: of news. Meanwhile, I mean, it's like listening to a

1655
01:35:47,560 --> 01:35:51,280
Speaker 1: bunch of catty high school girls. And I'm talking about

1656
01:35:51,400 --> 01:35:54,640
Speaker 1: Joe and you know, Bill Crystal and the people that

1657
01:35:54,680 --> 01:35:58,880
Speaker 1: he's got on his panel and some guy Confessory from

1658
01:35:58,920 --> 01:36:00,599
Speaker 1: the New York Times and these other people, and it's

1659
01:36:00,600 --> 01:36:05,679
Speaker 1: just always this very snide, sanctimonious anti Trump law. They're

1660
01:36:05,680 --> 01:36:08,599
Speaker 1: all saying the same crap. But Meeky here saying something

1661
01:36:08,640 --> 01:36:11,880
Speaker 1: that's that's anti gay to attack Trump. And yeah, she's

1662
01:36:12,240 --> 01:36:15,720
Speaker 1: she's now said that. Oh, she apologized to the Democrat

1663
01:36:15,800 --> 01:36:18,040
Speaker 1: Senator Durban, who was on set with her. I guess

1664
01:36:18,080 --> 01:36:20,040
Speaker 1: he didn't do anything. He was just sitting there. She

1665
01:36:20,080 --> 01:36:22,280
Speaker 1: didn't apologize as far as I know, to Trump, though,

1666
01:36:23,040 --> 01:36:26,960
Speaker 1: And you know this, Stephen Colbert not long ago referred

1667
01:36:27,000 --> 01:36:29,200
Speaker 1: to I can't even say, I can't say on air

1668
01:36:29,320 --> 01:36:34,679
Speaker 1: what he said, but he used a homophobic slur about

1669
01:36:34,720 --> 01:36:37,960
Speaker 1: President Trump and Vladimir Putin. I mean, these people are

1670
01:36:37,960 --> 01:36:43,400
Speaker 1: paid millions of dollars and are so so lucky. They're elite,

1671
01:36:43,520 --> 01:36:46,559
Speaker 1: but they are. They're really elitists, right, They're really just

1672
01:36:46,640 --> 01:36:49,920
Speaker 1: trying to hold on to their social position. They're not

1673
01:36:49,960 --> 01:36:55,360
Speaker 1: particularly talented, they're not particularly bright, and yet they can't

1674
01:36:55,400 --> 01:37:00,320
Speaker 1: help themselves. But to risk much of that, or at

1675
01:37:00,360 --> 01:37:04,360
Speaker 1: least risk some of that by saying crazy things about

1676
01:37:04,360 --> 01:37:07,880
Speaker 1: this president, I mean, it's just not rational. It's it's

1677
01:37:07,960 --> 01:37:12,439
Speaker 1: not a normal thing to be a you know, national

1678
01:37:12,520 --> 01:37:18,680
Speaker 1: level TV host and to have to you know, apologize

1679
01:37:18,920 --> 01:37:21,679
Speaker 1: and you're a Democrat and you're a leftist and you're

1680
01:37:21,680 --> 01:37:26,920
Speaker 1: making anti gay slurs on TV. Yeah, you know, it's

1681
01:37:26,960 --> 01:37:28,599
Speaker 1: one of the and it's one of those things where

1682
01:37:28,600 --> 01:37:29,840
Speaker 1: you just sitting here, you say, I mean, we know

1683
01:37:29,920 --> 01:37:33,360
Speaker 1: there's this double standard. But even with the double standard,

1684
01:37:33,400 --> 01:37:37,719
Speaker 1: I mean, what is her problem, you know, putting aside

1685
01:37:37,720 --> 01:37:39,679
Speaker 1: that she's not going to get at any any real

1686
01:37:39,720 --> 01:37:42,559
Speaker 1: trouble for this, which is just we know that the

1687
01:37:42,600 --> 01:37:45,040
Speaker 1: media is unfair and it's stacked and all that, but

1688
01:37:45,080 --> 01:37:49,839
Speaker 1: you know, Mika Brazinsky, I just just unimpressive in every

1689
01:37:50,280 --> 01:37:52,880
Speaker 1: every regard. And I just wish that people watching that

1690
01:37:53,080 --> 01:38:03,479
Speaker 1: stupid show would figure that out. The show keeping it real,

1691

1699
01:38:38,600 --> 01:38:40,799
Speaker 1: gonna we should probably set up an a email address

1700
01:38:40,880 --> 01:38:42,320
Speaker 1: just to kick at old school. You know, it'll be

1701
01:38:42,360 --> 01:38:45,240
Speaker 1: like a throwback jersey. It'll be like team Buck at

1702
01:38:45,240 --> 01:38:51,920
Speaker 1: aol dot com. Damn um, Martha rights. Trump needs to

1703
01:38:52,000 --> 01:38:56,920
Speaker 1: start billing the wall as a WPA style Americans back

1704
01:38:56,960 --> 01:39:00,639
Speaker 1: to work project. Well, Martha, I hear what you're saying.

1705
01:39:00,720 --> 01:39:04,280
Speaker 1: I think, more than anything else, Trump needs to start

1706
01:39:05,439 --> 01:39:08,400
Speaker 1: getting fired up about the fight ahead with this shutdown.

1707
01:39:08,800 --> 01:39:10,679
Speaker 1: And you look, you did a good job with Humor

1708
01:39:10,760 --> 01:39:12,960
Speaker 1: and Pelosi. I think that people realize that Humor and

1709
01:39:13,000 --> 01:39:15,840
Speaker 1: Pelosi are when you you know, when you look at

1710
01:39:15,880 --> 01:39:19,559
Speaker 1: that whole situation, there's there's an understanding that they want

1711
01:39:19,600 --> 01:39:21,960
Speaker 1: to be the ones having that discussion behind closed doors.

1712
01:39:22,000 --> 01:39:24,760
Speaker 1: Trump wants to have that discussion out where people can

1713
01:39:24,760 --> 01:39:28,439
Speaker 1: actually hear it. So there you go. Isn't that that

1714
01:39:28,640 --> 01:39:30,720
Speaker 1: tells you a lot about it, doesn't it? If if

1715
01:39:30,720 --> 01:39:33,160
Speaker 1: it were so strong for Democrats, if it was so

1716
01:39:33,240 --> 01:39:40,120
Speaker 1: politically useful for them to oppose the wall, why aren't

1717
01:39:40,160 --> 01:39:42,840
Speaker 1: they the ones that are making the case to have

1718
01:39:42,920 --> 01:39:44,920
Speaker 1: that discussion publicly? Why do they want to have it?

1719
01:39:45,240 --> 01:39:48,200
Speaker 1: I mean, look, you just you apply basic reason and

1720
01:39:48,240 --> 01:39:50,640
Speaker 1: logic to these things, and then you realize the Democrats

1721
01:39:50,880 --> 01:39:55,920
Speaker 1: are full of it, full of it. Randy Riots, Hey,

1722
01:39:55,920 --> 01:39:58,479
Speaker 1: Buck Shields high, I've got I've got to get one

1723
01:39:58,520 --> 01:40:02,799
Speaker 1: more line in today. At today's meeting with the President,

1724
01:40:02,880 --> 01:40:06,080
Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer said when the President braggted he won won

1725
01:40:06,160 --> 01:40:09,280
Speaker 1: North Dakota and Indiana, he's in real trouble. So, Chuck,

1726
01:40:09,320 --> 01:40:11,599
Speaker 1: are you saying that North Dakota and Indiana don't count?

1727
01:40:11,680 --> 01:40:14,920
Speaker 1: Oh sick burn from Randy? I don't. I can't speak

1728
01:40:14,920 --> 01:40:18,519
Speaker 1: for Chuck Schumer. He also wrote, so after the CEO

1729
01:40:18,560 --> 01:40:22,040
Speaker 1: of Google testifying in front of Congress, I believe Google's

1730
01:40:22,120 --> 01:40:24,760

1732
01:40:32,600 --> 01:40:34,360
Speaker 1: That's right, everybody. I should have had a career in

1733
01:40:34,439 --> 01:40:38,120
Speaker 1: music instead, That's right. I forget this radio stuff. I'd

1734
01:40:38,120 --> 01:40:42,799
Speaker 1: be on the hip music side of the dial. Hey,

1735
01:40:42,840 --> 01:40:44,840
Speaker 1: book Sexton, come to you at KO t r j

1736
01:40:45,200 --> 01:40:48,960
Speaker 1: w QSR one oh nine point seven seven seven seven.

1737
01:40:50,200 --> 01:40:52,560
Speaker 1: What do you think, DJ Brandon? Could I make the

1738
01:40:52,600 --> 01:40:56,400
Speaker 1: switch be one of those guys? I want the noise

1739
01:40:56,439 --> 01:40:59,640
Speaker 1: though that, yeah, thank you, right. I want to be there.

1740
01:40:59,640 --> 01:41:02,640
Speaker 1: I want to have the thing where they're like, you know,

1741
01:41:02,680 --> 01:41:05,240
Speaker 1: the noise are like the car going you know, do

1742
01:41:05,280 --> 01:41:06,640
Speaker 1: you know what I'm talking about? Like it's like a

1743
01:41:06,640 --> 01:41:08,320
Speaker 1: car goes by you really fast and they use that

1744
01:41:08,360 --> 01:41:11,719
Speaker 1: as a drop sometimes. Sure, good luck with that. Yeah,

1745
01:41:11,720 --> 01:41:14,800
Speaker 1: all right, DJ Brandon is not these things. I should

1746
01:41:14,840 --> 01:41:17,960
Speaker 1: probably stick to the political analysis. That's fine, he's probably

1747
01:41:18,000 --> 01:41:22,320
Speaker 1: he's probably master by the way, but buck Master flex

1748
01:41:22,360 --> 01:41:24,559
Speaker 1: I like that a lot. Actually, buck Master flex should

1749
01:41:24,560 --> 01:41:27,599
Speaker 1: be a thing that we actually run with. Um. Did

1750
01:41:27,680 --> 01:41:30,000
Speaker 1: you see a recent photo This was making the rounds

1751
01:41:30,000 --> 01:41:32,800
Speaker 1: and the memes of Axel Rose, and the meme was

1752
01:41:32,840 --> 01:41:35,759
Speaker 1: that Axel Rose looks like the mean lady from the Goonies.

1753
01:41:35,840 --> 01:41:41,080
Speaker 1: And it's true. Yeah, it's true. Have you seen that? Yeah? Yeah, yeah,

1754
01:41:41,120 --> 01:41:43,960
Speaker 1: it happened. Acts. I mean, we all age. I don't

1755
01:41:43,960 --> 01:41:46,600
Speaker 1: know what to tell you, We all age, that's my comment. No,

1756
01:41:46,680 --> 01:41:48,920
Speaker 1: it's like it's like it's like you're being told there's

1757
01:41:48,960 --> 01:41:53,040
Speaker 1: no Santa clause. The first time Axel Rose see him

1758
01:41:53,040 --> 01:41:55,519
Speaker 1: mine seeing him next to Mickey Mickey Rourke. There was

1759
01:41:55,560 --> 01:41:58,120
Speaker 1: a recent picture. I think they went to the same service. Yep,

1760
01:41:58,200 --> 01:42:01,400
Speaker 1: that's the one. Okay, Yeah, they both they both look

1761
01:42:01,479 --> 01:42:03,920
Speaker 1: like they're in their granny phase, which is nothing wrong

1762
01:42:03,960 --> 01:42:07,559
Speaker 1: with that. It's just different than I remember them, all right.

1763
01:42:07,760 --> 01:42:11,320
Speaker 1: Damien writes like you, I'm a child of the eighties

1764
01:42:11,680 --> 01:42:14,160
Speaker 1: and Big Trouble in Little China was a staple of

1765
01:42:14,200 --> 01:42:17,680
Speaker 1: my childhood. However, I learned it isn't on Netflix or

1766
01:42:17,680 --> 01:42:21,120
Speaker 1: a Hulu. I thought this was twenty eighteen. Jack Burton

1767
01:42:21,160 --> 01:42:25,000
Speaker 1: should be on demand. I say, we riot, We're not

1768
01:42:25,240 --> 01:42:28,679
Speaker 1: gonna take it. Shield high Buck, Glad you're feeling better, well, Damian,

1769
01:42:28,720 --> 01:42:31,120
Speaker 1: thank you, man, I appreciate it. Big Trouble in Little

1770
01:42:31,200 --> 01:42:34,720
Speaker 1: China is a great movie that will never ever ever

1771
01:42:34,760 --> 01:42:36,800
Speaker 1: be able to be remade because you get in trouble

1772
01:42:36,840 --> 01:42:39,560
Speaker 1: from making that movie. Now, there's so much cultural appropriation.

1773
01:42:40,800 --> 01:42:42,920
Speaker 1: There's a lot of Asian guys with accents. You know,

1774
01:42:42,920 --> 01:42:45,200
Speaker 1: you're just that's just you're not allowed to do these things.

1775
01:42:46,120 --> 01:42:49,080
Speaker 1: You know. Cinema has changed so much, and in anyways

1776
01:42:49,080 --> 01:42:52,040
Speaker 1: not for the better. Although I was seeing today there

1777
01:42:52,080 --> 01:42:58,280
Speaker 1: were the reviews of Aquaman are just scathing that I'm seeing,

1778
01:42:58,800 --> 01:43:03,439
Speaker 1: which is such a shame, like Aquaman should be great. Well, Brandon,

1779
01:43:03,560 --> 01:43:07,639
Speaker 1: why can't they make superhero movies with with just good

1780
01:43:07,680 --> 01:43:10,439
Speaker 1: stories and good acting. I mean, you've already got the

1781
01:43:10,479 --> 01:43:13,479
Speaker 1: built in superhero fan base. They rely so much on

1782
01:43:13,560 --> 01:43:16,040
Speaker 1: CGI and I think it's because they do it for

1783
01:43:16,040 --> 01:43:18,479
Speaker 1: the Yeah, they do it for the global market because

1784
01:43:18,479 --> 01:43:20,240
Speaker 1: they know they're gonna dub the crap out of all

1785
01:43:20,280 --> 01:43:22,800
Speaker 1: these things, and so you know, if it has a

1786
01:43:22,800 --> 01:43:25,479
Speaker 1: big opening in China. They don't care if those of

1787
01:43:25,560 --> 01:43:28,280
Speaker 1: us who actually like comic books watch the movie and say,

1788
01:43:28,560 --> 01:43:34,360
Speaker 1: this is not paying homage to this great canon of work. Yeah,

1789
01:43:34,400 --> 01:43:37,200
Speaker 1: I'm with you. I'm a fan of the artistic comics

1790
01:43:37,200 --> 01:43:40,439
Speaker 1: and they I would rather have, you know, Jimpson, Jim

1791
01:43:40,479 --> 01:43:45,280
Speaker 1: Henson like puppetry rather than the CGI. Oh absolutely well,

1792
01:43:45,320 --> 01:43:47,400
Speaker 1: when you think about a Jaws, even though the shark

1793
01:43:47,479 --> 01:43:53,280
Speaker 1: and Jaws doesn't look real, because it's an actual thing

1794
01:43:53,400 --> 01:43:56,160
Speaker 1: that's in the water, it holds up much better than

1795
01:43:56,200 --> 01:43:58,920
Speaker 1: a lot of these movies. Like I saw a like

1796
01:43:59,040 --> 01:44:01,400
Speaker 1: Deep Lucy was Deep Blue c is saved by the

1797
01:44:01,400 --> 01:44:04,559
Speaker 1: Samuel Jackson speech and and what happens at the end

1798
01:44:04,560 --> 01:44:06,800
Speaker 1: of it. But yeah, no, deeply no, But you're right,

1799
01:44:06,800 --> 01:44:09,839
Speaker 1: I mean Deep Blue c. Those sharks, those CGI sharks

1800
01:44:09,840 --> 01:44:13,519
Speaker 1: are way less scary than the Jaws. Like you know,

1801
01:44:13,640 --> 01:44:16,360
Speaker 1: mechanical shark from however long ago? What was this? I

1802
01:44:16,360 --> 01:44:17,920
Speaker 1: remember I read his name. They have a name for

1803
01:44:17,920 --> 01:44:19,800
Speaker 1: the shark. I forget what it is, but it's like

1804
01:44:19,880 --> 01:44:22,600
Speaker 1: Hank or something like that. So yeah, I mean the

1805
01:44:22,840 --> 01:44:26,439
Speaker 1: shark from that's way better. Ah, such as life man,

1806
01:44:26,520 --> 01:44:28,200
Speaker 1: such as they were talking about a big trouble a

1807
01:44:28,200 --> 01:44:30,280
Speaker 1: little trying to remake, and then and then it fell away,

1808
01:44:30,400 --> 01:44:33,160
Speaker 1: and I got all excited about it. Give it time.

1809
01:44:33,200 --> 01:44:35,719
Speaker 1: They're gonna do it, probably an original blood Sport remake,

1810
01:44:35,960 --> 01:44:37,880
Speaker 1: and they could make that actually a pretty pretty kick

1811
01:44:37,880 --> 01:44:43,080
Speaker 1: ass movie. Nathaniel right Hey buck shields high material for

1812
01:44:43,160 --> 01:44:48,720
Speaker 1: the show. The BSO has clear non gender based criteria

1813
01:44:48,880 --> 01:44:53,440
Speaker 1: for their pay structure, but this millennial flutist is indoctrinated.

1814
01:44:53,479 --> 01:44:56,040
Speaker 1: She can't really see the reality staring her in her face.

1815
01:44:57,240 --> 01:44:59,320
Speaker 1: A star flutist. He's talking about this piece in the

1816
01:44:59,320 --> 01:45:02,519
Speaker 1: Washington Post. Star flutist is paid. This is like a

1817
01:45:02,560 --> 01:45:06,280
Speaker 1: male female pay disparity thing. The Boston Symphony Orchestra is

1818
01:45:06,320 --> 01:45:09,160
Speaker 1: the BSO. They're ninety five musicians, sixty three men and

1819
01:45:09,240 --> 01:45:12,720
Speaker 1: thirty two women. Principal flutist Elizabeth Rowe sits next to

1820
01:45:12,880 --> 01:45:17,320
Speaker 1: Principal Obois John Farrillo. She paid. She's paid sixty four thousand,

1821
01:45:17,400 --> 01:45:19,519
Speaker 1: five hundred or four hundred and fifty one less than

1822
01:45:19,600 --> 01:45:23,679
Speaker 1: him a year. Okay, you know, I hate to break

1823
01:45:23,720 --> 01:45:26,599
Speaker 1: this to folks, and they're saying this could change the way,

1824
01:45:27,600 --> 01:45:30,080
Speaker 1: you know, orchestras pay men and women. I mean, I

1825
01:45:30,160 --> 01:45:32,120
Speaker 1: hate to break it too, folks. But you know, a

1826
01:45:32,160 --> 01:45:36,479
Speaker 1: lot of salary is about negotiation. I understand that the

1827
01:45:36,720 --> 01:45:41,240
Speaker 1: radical feminist types want everyone to believe that it's just

1828
01:45:41,640 --> 01:45:45,120
Speaker 1: a gender discrimination, But a lot of salary negotiation is

1829
01:45:45,720 --> 01:45:49,120
Speaker 1: about being willing to push, being willing to be aggressive,

1830
01:45:49,160 --> 01:45:51,160
Speaker 1: being willing to bluff even and say, you know, I

1831
01:45:51,200 --> 01:45:53,280
Speaker 1: got I'm gonna get a great offer from somewhere else

1832
01:45:53,320 --> 01:45:54,880
Speaker 1: if you don't pay me x or why. Look, I've

1833
01:45:54,920 --> 01:45:59,000
Speaker 1: had to do it myself many times. So our men

1834
01:46:00,080 --> 01:46:03,160
Speaker 1: predisposed to be more aggressive and more assertive in Southern

1835
01:46:03,160 --> 01:46:06,080
Speaker 1: negotiations than women. It's certainly possible. Oh my gosh, you

1836
01:46:06,160 --> 01:46:09,439
Speaker 1: just said men and women are different. It's terrible, but

1837
01:46:09,680 --> 01:46:13,360
Speaker 1: but it's definitely not because people have exactly the same

1838
01:46:13,400 --> 01:46:15,639
Speaker 1: skills and women just make twenty percent less or whatever

1839
01:46:15,680 --> 01:46:17,960
Speaker 1: it is that they say now because or you know,

1840
01:46:18,000 --> 01:46:20,120
Speaker 1: in this case, sixty four thousand dollars less. I didn't

1841
01:46:20,160 --> 01:46:21,920
Speaker 1: know that people in orchestras made that much money. By

1842
01:46:21,920 --> 01:46:23,439
Speaker 1: the way, that's a lot of money, I mean, because

1843
01:46:23,479 --> 01:46:25,559
Speaker 1: that's if she makes sixty four thousand less, I mean,

1844
01:46:25,600 --> 01:46:28,679
Speaker 1: you gotta be in you know, good six figure territory

1845
01:46:28,760 --> 01:46:32,880
Speaker 1: here to be in these orchestras anyway. So there's that's

1846
01:46:32,920 --> 01:46:34,559
Speaker 1: that's my take on all that we can talk about

1847
01:46:34,600 --> 01:46:38,640
Speaker 1: this morning. The time Rachel writes Buck, there's a Battlestar

1848
01:46:38,720 --> 01:46:41,479
Speaker 1: Galactic A miniseries from two thousand and three that's available

1849
01:46:41,479 --> 01:46:45,879
Speaker 1: on Amazon Prime right now. The later four series seasons

1850
01:46:45,920 --> 01:46:49,400
Speaker 1: are a continuation of the two thousand and three mini series.

1851
01:46:49,880 --> 01:46:52,840
Speaker 1: This is why season one, episode one looks like a

1852
01:46:52,880 --> 01:46:56,840
Speaker 1: continuation of something. There we go, Rachel, this is what

1853
01:46:56,880 --> 01:46:59,040
Speaker 1: I've been asking for for a while because it's really

1854
01:46:59,080 --> 01:47:01,880
Speaker 1: not clear to me. And I try to watch Battlestar Galactica.

1855
01:47:01,920 --> 01:47:07,200
Speaker 1: I tried to, you know, be up on it, and

1856
01:47:07,240 --> 01:47:09,479
Speaker 1: I'm like, wait did I miss? And I hate feeling

1857
01:47:09,479 --> 01:47:11,519
Speaker 1: like I'm coming in. I'm somebody who if I missed

1858
01:47:11,560 --> 01:47:13,280
Speaker 1: the first twenty minutes of a movie when I used

1859
01:47:13,280 --> 01:47:15,320
Speaker 1: to go to movies in the theater, you can't handle it.

1860
01:47:15,360 --> 01:47:17,160
Speaker 1: I just I hate it, you know, I can't do that.

1861
01:47:17,560 --> 01:47:21,960
Speaker 1: And I always felt like I was behind on Battlestar Galactica.

1862
01:47:22,080 --> 01:47:24,559
Speaker 1: It turns out, yeah, there was this mini series before it.

1863
01:47:24,600 --> 01:47:26,759
Speaker 1: You don't have to see, but it's kind of based

1864
01:47:26,800 --> 01:47:29,960
Speaker 1: on something. I mean, you get what I'm putting down

1865
01:47:30,000 --> 01:47:32,040
Speaker 1: by the way, I'm really not I'm really not so

1866
01:47:32,080 --> 01:47:36,000
Speaker 1: psyched about Frontier. A bunch of you gave me that recommendation,

1867
01:47:36,160 --> 01:47:38,880
Speaker 1: and I can appreciate why you like. And Jason Momoa,

1868
01:47:39,040 --> 01:47:42,960
Speaker 1: it's very compelling as Declin Harp it's a cool name too.

1869
01:47:43,120 --> 01:47:44,200
Speaker 1: There was a time when I was like, I wish

1870
01:47:44,280 --> 01:47:46,479
Speaker 1: my name was Declin. That's one of the cooler Irish names.

1871
01:47:48,240 --> 01:47:52,080
Speaker 1: But the storytelling is just a little sloppy, and there's

1872
01:47:52,120 --> 01:47:54,880
Speaker 1: way too much like, oh, we need to do something,

1873
01:47:54,960 --> 01:47:57,040
Speaker 1: let's just stab some guy here. You know. There's not

1874
01:47:57,120 --> 01:47:59,680
Speaker 1: really enough intricate storytelling for me. The acting is a

1875
01:47:59,640 --> 01:48:02,680
Speaker 1: little like I call it, like I see it, you know.

1876
01:48:02,720 --> 01:48:05,680
Speaker 1: And some of you, some Team Buck original squad, is

1877
01:48:05,680 --> 01:48:07,240
Speaker 1: going to make fun of me because I like to

1878
01:48:07,240 --> 01:48:10,320
Speaker 1: tear apart pop culture movies and TV more than I

1879
01:48:10,360 --> 01:48:12,439
Speaker 1: tend to praise them, and they are correct when they

1880
01:48:12,439 --> 01:48:16,439
Speaker 1: say that. But I just I can't do it. I

1881
01:48:16,520 --> 01:48:18,680
Speaker 1: can't do it when it comes to a Frontier. It's

1882
01:48:18,680 --> 01:48:21,280
Speaker 1: just it's not my favorite. We'll have to do it

1883
01:48:21,320 --> 01:48:25,200
Speaker 1: live Van hey Buck. I stumbled onto your show about

1884
01:48:25,200 --> 01:48:27,479
Speaker 1: a year ago. I've been listening rapidly for six months

1885
01:48:27,479 --> 01:48:30,200
Speaker 1: and enjoy your insight and especially the voices you do.

1886
01:48:30,760 --> 01:48:33,799
Speaker 1: Thinks me appreciate it. Although I'm a little more central

1887
01:48:33,960 --> 01:48:36,720
Speaker 1: than you are, I am still light years away from

1888
01:48:36,720 --> 01:48:39,280
Speaker 1: the modern democrat, libert radical, etc. All I can say

1889
01:48:39,320 --> 01:48:41,360
Speaker 1: about the Muller probe is that if President Trump is

1890
01:48:41,400 --> 01:48:44,400
Speaker 1: guilty of all of the crimes that Libs say he is,

1891
01:48:44,760 --> 01:48:46,680
Speaker 1: Mueller must be the biggest idiot on the face of

1892
01:48:46,720 --> 01:48:49,760
Speaker 1: the planet for not being able to find any evidence.

1893
01:48:50,320 --> 01:48:52,800
Speaker 1: Trump must be some kind of genius. On the other hand,

1894
01:48:52,800 --> 01:48:55,080
Speaker 1: in which case, glad I'm on his side. Do you

1895
01:48:55,120 --> 01:48:57,720
Speaker 1: think if the Libs actually believe in God, Jesus and

1896
01:48:57,760 --> 01:48:59,680
Speaker 1: the teachings of the Bible, they would think he is

1897
01:48:59,720 --> 01:49:02,960
Speaker 1: the anti Christ? Keep spreading the truth, my friend, Shields. Hi,

1898
01:49:03,360 --> 01:49:05,720
Speaker 1: then welcome to Team Buck. I know you've been with

1899
01:49:05,840 --> 01:49:07,760
Speaker 1: us for six months, but I don't think I've had

1900
01:49:07,800 --> 01:49:11,320
Speaker 1: a chance to say that to you before. And yeah,

1901
01:49:11,560 --> 01:49:15,360
Speaker 1: I think that you're spot on. We are supposed to believe.

1902
01:49:15,360 --> 01:49:19,160
Speaker 1: But the most sophisticated intelligence and law enforcement apparatus on

1903
01:49:19,240 --> 01:49:22,960
Speaker 1: the planet is unable to find smoking gun evidence of

1904
01:49:23,000 --> 01:49:26,880
Speaker 1: an international conspiracy to throw a presidential election. This is

1905
01:49:27,360 --> 01:49:33,680
Speaker 1: crazy town, all right. It's just not rational, never mind reasonable,

1906
01:49:33,880 --> 01:49:37,840
Speaker 1: it's not rational. So that's my answer. That's my answer

1907
01:49:37,840 --> 01:49:40,759
Speaker 1: to all that. We're gonna have a fantastic show tomorrow

1908
01:49:40,800 --> 01:49:43,880
Speaker 1: and Friday. So thank you so much for giving me

1909
