00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 2: and the rifle being unique. Messages from the contact Tyler

00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 2: also mentioned that he had changed outfits. I know there

55
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:56,120
Speaker 2: has been speculation as well as to the writing on

56
00:03:56,400 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 2: those casings, those bullet casings, and I believe we have

00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:51,920
Speaker 3: continue to deliver to Governor Cox and his team. Last night,

160
00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:54,760
Speaker 3: we had a total of approximately seven thousand interviews excuse me,

161
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 3: seven thousand leads. As of this morning, thanks to your

162
00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 3: great work, we have over eleven thousand leads that were

163
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,559
Speaker 3: called in to the FBI and we are running out

164
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 3: every single lead that we can. Every one of those

165
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:11,760
Speaker 3: leads will be run out. The arrest is a testament

166
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:16,360
Speaker 3: to dedication of good law enforcement being great and partnerships

167
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:18,680
Speaker 3: in law enforcement, which I've tried to highlight as my

168
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 3: tenure at the Director of the FBI. There is no

169
00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:25,160
Speaker 3: better relationship for law enforcement than the FBI to partner

170
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,520
Speaker 3: with state and local authorities, and you've seen it here

171
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:31,560
Speaker 3: in these last few days. The FBI Salt Lake Field Office,

172
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:35,080
Speaker 3: along with our offices in La Phoenix, Denver, San Antonio,

173
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:39,600
Speaker 3: Las Vegas, Pittsburgh, Buffalo, our headquarters component in Quantico all

174
00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 3: participate in the FBI. I want to express my deep

175
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 3: gratitude to the employees of the FBI, the men and women,

176
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:50,920
Speaker 3: the evidence response team, tacticians, the special operators, the agents,

177
00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 3: the support staff. You have done monumental work in historic

178
00:11:55,880 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 3: time when the public who had a right to demand

179
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:05,560
Speaker 3: and such an expeditious solving of an investigation. The FBI

180
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:11,320
Speaker 3: answered that call diligently, critically important to our nation, and

181
00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 3: we delivered. And I'm proud to be their leader, and

182
00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:16,719
Speaker 3: I'm proud to be the director of the FBI. This

183
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:19,400
Speaker 3: is a very much an ongoing investigation, as the governor said,

184
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 3: and we will continue to work with state and local

185
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:25,200
Speaker 3: authorities to develop the investigation, to provide them the evidence

186
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 3: they need for their ongoing prosecutions. And we will be

187
00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:31,679
Speaker 3: here to answer every call they absolutely have, as long

188
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,199
Speaker 3: as it takes, for as long as we need to

189
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:40,679
Speaker 3: find and apprehend who whatever suspects were involved in this crime. Lastly,

190
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:47,800
Speaker 3: to my friend Charlie kirk rest now, brother, we have

191
00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,320
Speaker 3: the watch and I'll see you in Valhalla.

192
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 1: I got to tell you, it's so nice to see

193
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:56,199
Speaker 1: people in law enforcement and the governor care so much

194
00:12:56,440 --> 00:13:01,680
Speaker 1: about justice. For this assassination, knowing that, as Cash Barttel

195
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:03,400
Speaker 1: said it over and over again, this is what happens

196
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:06,320
Speaker 1: to you let good people do their jobs in uniform

197
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:11,400
Speaker 1: the Utah governor. They're revealing the truth about what has

198
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:16,080
Speaker 1: what was said on the bullet casings, and I love

199
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:19,040
Speaker 1: knowing that there are people that aren't trying to cover

200
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 1: things up or whitewash things, or make them somehow different

201
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:27,080
Speaker 1: than what they really are. We're finding out exactly what

202
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:31,439
Speaker 1: happened here. We also know that one of the phrases,

203
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 1: the bella coo phrase, is associated with left wing songs

204
00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 1: loosely linked to twentieth century Italian opponents of fascism. We're

205
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 1: going to find out even more about this, but let

206
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 1: me also just say that is sad as I am

207
00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:55,080
Speaker 1: over losing my friend Charlie, I am so thankful to

208
00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 1: see so many people coming around to love on his family,

209
00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:04,120
Speaker 1: to love on his friends, to stand up for what

210
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:06,439
Speaker 1: he stood up for, to stand up for what we

211
00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:09,920
Speaker 1: believe in, and to know that this shooter may have

212
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,720
Speaker 1: thought they won, but they didn't. They didn't stop us.

213
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:17,199
Speaker 1: They made us stronger, They didn't silence us. They made

214
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:21,240
Speaker 1: us louder. They didn't get rid of Charlie Kirk's voice.

215
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:27,400
Speaker 1: They just added millions and I mean that literally to

216
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:31,280
Speaker 1: continue on with what he was advocating for. I am

217
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:34,880
Speaker 1: so thankful that we live in a country where good

218
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:41,320
Speaker 1: can still overcome evil. There are many out there that

219
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:44,960
Speaker 1: are celebrating the death of Charlie Kirk Allah Mamr for example.

220
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 1: So conservatives who support Charlie Kirk are full of blank.

221
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:52,800
Speaker 1: They're also Democrats trying to rewrite history, acting like they

222
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:56,280
Speaker 1: were not the ones that created this environment and this

223
00:14:56,360 --> 00:15:01,000
Speaker 1: level of hatred. And I'm glad that using their jobs,

224
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:04,560
Speaker 1: many of them on college campuses, have lost their jobs

225
00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:07,160
Speaker 1: for what they said celebrating the death of Charlie Kirk,

226
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 1: celebrating the assassination of him, and there's accountability there as well.

227
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:17,360
Speaker 1: We are also hearing from world leaders, not just President

228
00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:19,880
Speaker 1: Donald Trump, who has spoken out about this, and the

229
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:23,960
Speaker 1: Vice president also is going to Utah and going to

230
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:27,200
Speaker 1: be picking up the family of Charlie Kirk, his wife

231
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:33,280
Speaker 1: and children and relatives and taking Charlie's casket back to Arizona.

232
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 1: We've learned that, but there are leaders around the world

233
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 1: now that are talking about what happened to Charlie Kirk.

234
00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:44,840
Speaker 1: One of those is the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Nette Yahoo.

235
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:50,560
Speaker 1: Now Charlie was a protector of Israel. He was very

236
00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:52,800
Speaker 1: much like me, where he was proud to be an

237
00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:56,640
Speaker 1: ally and to stand with the Jewish people. I wear

238
00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 1: if you see me on TV, I wear a pen

239
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:02,920
Speaker 1: that is the US flag, and it's right next to

240
00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:08,440
Speaker 1: the Israeli flag. And I keep wearing it because every

241
00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:12,280
Speaker 1: time I'm on TV, it irritates people and the hate

242
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,520
Speaker 1: and bigotry comes out. And I want to shine a

243
00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:18,120
Speaker 1: light on the standing and the unity that we need

244
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:22,040
Speaker 1: to have with Israel. And that is absolutely what Charlie

245
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:26,600
Speaker 1: Cook stood for as well. And net Yahoo was on

246
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:30,800
Speaker 1: Newsmax with Greta Ancestrum. He had actually been on there

247
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:32,920
Speaker 1: recently with her, and I want you to hear what

248
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 1: he had to say about Charlie.

249
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:37,520
Speaker 4: Mister Prime Minister. It's very nice to talk to you

250
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:39,800
Speaker 4: against sir, but I didn't dream that I'd be talking

251
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 4: to you so soon since the last time we spoke.

252
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:50,680
Speaker 5: Well, the circumstances are tragic and as you can imagine, Greta,

253
00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:55,680
Speaker 5: I want to say a farewell to a great human being,

254
00:16:55,920 --> 00:17:00,400
Speaker 5: great friend of Israel, a great champion of Judeo Christianization

255
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:05,720
Speaker 5: and a champion of free speech, free debate, freedom. Charlie

256
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:12,520
Speaker 5: kirk Is. His loss is terrible, and we agree for him,

257
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:16,760
Speaker 5: for his wife, Erica, for his two beautiful children, and

258
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:20,320
Speaker 5: for the many, many, many people who will not hear

259
00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:27,400
Speaker 5: his voice. His legacy, yes, but his unique voice that's gone.

260
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:29,359
Speaker 2: You know.

261
00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:33,239
Speaker 4: I'm you didn't just read about him, You actually knew him.

262
00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:35,800
Speaker 4: He wrote you a very personal letter in May, and

263
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:38,040
Speaker 4: I think you just spoke to him recently, am I right?

264
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:41,399
Speaker 5: Yeah? Yes, he did. You know, he wrote me this

265
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:45,040
Speaker 5: letter and I think May second and he says, one

266
00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:48,879
Speaker 5: of my greatest joys as a Christian is advocating for

267
00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:53,720
Speaker 5: Israel and forming alliances to defend your deil Christian civilization.

268
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:59,479
Speaker 5: That's in a nutshell, Charlie. And then I called him

269
00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:02,320
Speaker 5: a few weeks and I said, so, Charlie, why didn't

270
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:06,240
Speaker 5: you come and visit us? And he said, well, I'm

271
00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:08,400
Speaker 5: going to and we were going to fix a date

272
00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:12,320
Speaker 5: and that's not going to take place.

273
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:17,680
Speaker 1: An emotional Benjamin Nette Yahu there. And I think anyone

274
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:21,120
Speaker 1: that had traded text messages or phone calls with Charlie

275
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:27,320
Speaker 1: in recent days and weeks is just shocked still to

276
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:30,840
Speaker 1: the core by what has happened. I also want to

277
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:35,159
Speaker 1: address a question that's been asked to me a lot

278
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:40,040
Speaker 1: and in the last twenty four hours, not just by family,

279
00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:44,280
Speaker 1: but friends and also others that I work with, and

280
00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:48,200
Speaker 1: that is the real concern over safety for anyone that's

281
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:53,600
Speaker 1: out there doing anything like what Charlie did. There is

282
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:58,720
Speaker 1: very real concern, and there are different things that will

283
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:04,080
Speaker 1: be done. I will doing different things, things differently, and

284
00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:06,119
Speaker 1: the way that I move and the way that I

285
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:08,280
Speaker 1: do things and the way that I do TV appearances,

286
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:14,720
Speaker 1: because there is a real sense of not fear, I

287
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:18,959
Speaker 1: think reality that there is a wing now of the

288
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:22,120
Speaker 1: Democratic Party that is in essence of terrorist organization, and

289
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,719
Speaker 1: they will be inspired by what just happened. The number

290
00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:32,119
Speaker 1: of people that cheered on the assassination of Charlie Kirk

291
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:37,600
Speaker 1: is poison that is clearly poisoned the well in a

292
00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:40,880
Speaker 1: way that I don't even think I realized how bad

293
00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:45,000
Speaker 1: it was. And I deal with this every day every

294
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:47,160
Speaker 1: time that I go on TV. The number of people

295
00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:51,720
Speaker 1: that write horrible things online is ever since twenty sixteen,

296
00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:55,280
Speaker 1: is just constant. Like I kind of laugh and smirk

297
00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:58,200
Speaker 1: and just whatever. You've got to have thic skin to

298
00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:02,080
Speaker 1: do this. And there's so many others, but the most

299
00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:05,640
Speaker 1: shocking part of all of this is just the vitriol

300
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,600
Speaker 1: and the hate and the celebration of the death of

301
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,760
Speaker 1: Charlie Kirk. And it's something we need to talk about.

302
00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:16,160
Speaker 1: I want to get back to what I was talking

303
00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:18,240
Speaker 1: about a moment ago as well, which is dealing with

304
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:21,040
Speaker 1: the hate that is out there. The hate that we

305
00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 1: are witnessing is at a level of a cancer that

306
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:29,240
Speaker 1: I am. I am still taken aback by.

307
00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:29,439
Speaker 2: Now.

308
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:31,800
Speaker 1: I'll give you an example. You may know that the

309
00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:36,480
Speaker 1: It's a show that's on Fox TMZ. They're there. They

310
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:39,360
Speaker 1: always report big news when it happens and they get

311
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:42,159
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's it's like the National Enquirer, but

312
00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:46,760
Speaker 1: with like faster pace and more reality. They're the first

313
00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:50,160
Speaker 1: ones that report people that die and scandals and sports

314
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:53,080
Speaker 1: and all sorts of things. And when there's things that

315
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:55,360
Speaker 1: happen they're tragic. There a lot of people go to

316
00:20:55,440 --> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 1: them TMZ. Yesterday when Charlie Kirk, when the news was

317
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:07,080
Speaker 1: breaking of his death, the live feed was up and

318
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:11,040
Speaker 1: they have now come out and been forced just publicly shamed.

319
00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:14,000
Speaker 1: I don't think they actually really care. I want to

320
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:18,359
Speaker 1: make that clear, but they've now been forced to apologize

321
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:23,760
Speaker 1: because the staff on the video you can hear erupting

322
00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:31,199
Speaker 1: into clapping, cheering and laughter after it was reported that

323
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:36,040
Speaker 1: Charlie Kirk was dead. The Daily Mail put it this way,

324
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:40,760
Speaker 1: timz has been forced to apologize after stafters burst into

325
00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:43,399
Speaker 1: laughter the moment Charlie Kirk's death was announced during an

326
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:46,679
Speaker 1: unflattering live stream. Now to be clear, the people in

327
00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:48,800
Speaker 1: the room, they didn't know. I guess that they were

328
00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:52,439
Speaker 1: going out live. The entertainment News out had found itself

329
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:55,359
Speaker 1: in hot water while reporting on the gory death of

330
00:21:55,400 --> 00:22:00,680
Speaker 1: the MAGA firebrand on Wednesday. While Harvey the guy who's

331
00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:04,280
Speaker 1: famous for TMZU and Charles, I don't even know what

332
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,440
Speaker 1: the hell the other guy's last name is. We're discussing

333
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:10,000
Speaker 1: the thirty one year old Turning Point USA founder assassination,

334
00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 1: laughter erupted in the background. Levin remained stoic as he

335
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:17,880
Speaker 1: broke the news to the live audience, but viewers were

336
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:22,080
Speaker 1: sickened by what they heard. During the live stream quote,

337
00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:25,399
Speaker 1: employees were heard cheering, clamping, and celebrating just thirty seconds

338
00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:29,480
Speaker 1: before announcing Charlie Kirk's death. One user on x said

339
00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:32,600
Speaker 1: they laughed and applauded the cold blooded murder of a

340
00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:35,040
Speaker 1: husband and a father on a public broadcast like it

341
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:38,080
Speaker 1: was some kind of sick joke, before handing it off

342
00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:43,679
Speaker 1: to Harvey. Conservative internet person personality Laura Lumer called the

343
00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:49,240
Speaker 1: incident disgusting, shameful and disgust disgusting behavior by TMZ. Charlie's

344
00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:52,560
Speaker 1: a husband, a father. He was murdering cold blood. The

345
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 1: worst part is about these two individuals who are famous

346
00:22:56,119 --> 00:23:01,280
Speaker 1: for getting into this type of smut and profiting off

347
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:04,959
Speaker 1: of other people's worst days in their lives, is that

348
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:09,160
Speaker 1: no one has dropped the show. TMZ then was forced

349
00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:11,160
Speaker 1: to put out what I could call a cover your

350
00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:14,639
Speaker 1: ass statement. We want to make it clear that these

351
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,080
Speaker 1: cheers were a reaction to a high speed chase happening

352
00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:19,280
Speaker 1: in California. This was prior to and not related to

353
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:21,240
Speaker 1: Charlie Kirk's death. By the way, I want to make

354
00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:26,199
Speaker 1: it clear, I don't believe that that's what they put out.

355
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:30,679
Speaker 1: Then TMZ later put out this video trying to cover themselves.

356
00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:37,520
Speaker 6: We were live streaming all day during this tragedy, when

357
00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:43,120
Speaker 6: something happened in our office as we were reporting the

358
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:48,119
Speaker 6: assassination of Charlie Kirk, there were some people in the

359
00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:52,000
Speaker 6: back room, away from your newsdesk here who were watching

360
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:57,240
Speaker 6: a car chase and they were laughing. They were clapping,

361
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:02,400
Speaker 6: and you could hear it out here. And we want

362
00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:06,520
Speaker 6: to make a couple of things clear. One is that

363
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:11,840
Speaker 6: I know these people and they were not laughing. They

364
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 6: were not reacting that way about Charlie Kirk's assassination. They

365
00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:19,320
Speaker 6: were not. They would not work here if they did.

366
00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:23,840
Speaker 6: And that being said, we acknowledged that it was horrible timing,

367
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:28,280
Speaker 6: and for that we are sorry. We apologize. We apologize it.

368
00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:30,280
Speaker 6: You had to hear that, and I get why. If

369
00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:33,440
Speaker 6: you're watching the stream, you may have felt that that's

370
00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:36,560
Speaker 6: what the laughter was about. We assure you it was

371
00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:40,520
Speaker 6: not about that, but it was horrible timing. And by

372
00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:42,360
Speaker 6: the way, I get it too, and he gets it

373
00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:45,919
Speaker 6: because we listened as we were talking. You can go

374
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:48,520
Speaker 6: back and look on the stream. I actually walked off

375
00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 6: camera to go back and find out what the hell

376
00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:55,359
Speaker 6: was going on because it was inappropriate for the laughter

377
00:24:55,480 --> 00:24:58,520
Speaker 6: at that time. But no one was laughing about the

378
00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:02,439
Speaker 6: Charlie Kirk tragedy. Nevertheless, we apologize for the way it sounded.

379
00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:05,080
Speaker 1: I don't I'm just going to be clear, I don't

380
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:09,119
Speaker 1: believe this for a second. I think this is a

381
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:12,639
Speaker 1: cover your abs moment. I think the timing and the

382
00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:14,760
Speaker 1: idea that this was you're covering those two stories same

383
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:17,280
Speaker 1: time and people weren't aware of what was going on

384
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:25,840
Speaker 1: is just completely and utterly insane, and it is really sad.

385
00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:32,200
Speaker 1: It also makes me incredibly angry that this is where

386
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:36,440
Speaker 1: we are now, where people are saying things like this

387
00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:40,119
Speaker 1: and celebrating it this way. There are people that are

388
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:43,919
Speaker 1: also blaming Donald Trump for Charlie Kirk's death, which is

389
00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:52,720
Speaker 1: also total insanity. Jim Acosta, former guy at CNN, he

390
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:55,320
Speaker 1: had a guest on his show today and I want

391
00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:56,960
Speaker 1: you to hear what he had to say on Charlie Kirk.

392
00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:00,080
Speaker 1: Listened to his words carefully.

393
00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:00,200
Speaker 5: Yeah.

394
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:05,760
Speaker 7: I mean, there's exploitation going on of his death, and

395
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:10,480
Speaker 7: it's happening on the right and it's absolutely disgraceful and

396
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:14,880
Speaker 7: it's sending us down a course where more people are

397
00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:17,080
Speaker 7: probably going to get hurt. And I mean that to

398
00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:19,800
Speaker 7: me is that's where I kind of held my breath yesterday.

399
00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:22,919
Speaker 7: Is that, you know, I think we're now in a

400
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:25,480
Speaker 7: moment and there's not a whole lot you and I

401
00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:27,360
Speaker 7: can do about this. Mike, you and I can talk

402
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:29,480
Speaker 7: about this until we're blue in the face or right

403
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:31,720
Speaker 7: in the face or whatever. There's not a whole hell

404
00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:34,639
Speaker 7: a lot we can do to stop what is now

405
00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:37,639
Speaker 7: I think happening, which is we're going to be in

406
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:40,800
Speaker 7: this eye for an eye moment. People on the far

407
00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:43,240
Speaker 7: right are going to use this moment. You already have

408
00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:47,600
Speaker 7: the State Department earlier today saying that quote unquote, foreigners

409
00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:50,760
Speaker 7: need to watch what they say. And Trump is talking

410
00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:54,480
Speaker 7: about retribution. I mean, if you read between the lines

411
00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:58,160
Speaker 7: of what he said last night, you know, screwed Jesse

412
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:00,879
Speaker 7: Waters and what he said. Between the lines of what

413
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 7: Trump said last night, he's talking about revenge and retribution.

414
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:11,000
Speaker 1: This is what the newsrooms are filled with. Jim Acosta

415
00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:12,879
Speaker 1: is no different than he was when he was at

416
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:17,480
Speaker 1: the White House saying there's exploitation going on of his death.

417
00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:22,159
Speaker 1: It's happening on the right and it's absolutely disgraceful. You

418
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:25,720
Speaker 1: guys can't turn it off for five seconds and just

419
00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:28,119
Speaker 1: say that this is a horrific tragedy and we should

420
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:30,960
Speaker 1: maybe come together instead you want to use it to

421
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:36,680
Speaker 1: go after conservatives. They weren't done there by the way

422
00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:40,640
Speaker 1: his guests said, quote people like Jesse Waters, they don't

423
00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:44,200
Speaker 1: give a blank about Charlie Kirk. And then he said,

424
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:48,440
Speaker 1: I'm not going to sugarcoat who Charlie Kirk was. They

425
00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:57,880
Speaker 1: are celebrating his death, they are celebrating the shooter. They

426
00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:03,320
Speaker 1: are advocating with the rhetoric for more of this to happen,

427
00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:06,760
Speaker 1: which goes back to the point that I said earlier

428
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:10,200
Speaker 1: about some people that reached out to me. There is

429
00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:13,159
Speaker 1: a real fear, there is a real concern, There is

430
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:16,159
Speaker 1: a real worry for all of us that do what

431
00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:20,360
Speaker 1: we do that this is going to happen again. And

432
00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:25,119
Speaker 1: I would say, pray for all of the people that

433
00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:28,520
Speaker 1: you know that do this. Pray for all of them

434
00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:31,720
Speaker 1: for their safety and their security, because you can hear

435
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,760
Speaker 1: in the clips that I just played for you there

436
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:41,600
Speaker 1: is a terrorist group of the Democratic Party that is

437
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:43,960
Speaker 1: wanting more of this to happen, and they're acting like

438
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 1: this is just the beginning and not the end, and

439
00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:51,080
Speaker 1: it's sick and it's perverted and it's evil, and we're

440
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:53,840
Speaker 1: witnessing it play out on social media and on TV

441
00:28:54,520 --> 00:29:00,000
Speaker 1: as we speak. But what I'll say right now is this, Pray.

442
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:05,840
Speaker 1: Pay for Charlie's wife, Pray for Charlie's children, Pray for

443
00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,600
Speaker 1: all of them, and I'll see you back here tomorrow
