1
00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:15,840
Speaker 1: You are entering the Freedom Hudge. Attorney General Barr nails

2
00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:21,040
Speaker 1: the crazy left Trump to testify over impeachment. FedEx gets

3
00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:24,040
Speaker 1: called out by The New York Times, but FedEx claps back.

4
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:27,920
Speaker 1: Prince Andrew does a disastrous interview, Blasi Ford gets an

5
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:31,680
Speaker 1: ACLU award, and Charlie's Angels flops. We got that and

6
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:36,160
Speaker 1: more coming up. This is the buck Sexton Show, where

7
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:39,199
Speaker 1: the mission or mission is to decode what really matters

8
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:45,720
Speaker 1: with actionable intelligence. Mag no mistake, American, You're a great

9
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:54,280
Speaker 1: American Again, the buck Sexton Show begins. He's a great guy. Now,

10
00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:57,480
Speaker 1: Welcome to the buck Sexton Show. Everybody, thank you for

11
00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:00,120
Speaker 1: being here with me. It's a bit of a cold

12
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 1: and dreary Monday in New York City, hopefully a little

13
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 1: more charming wherever you are across the country and around

14
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 1: the world. But the good news is when it's not

15
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,240
Speaker 1: beautiful and sunny outside, there is no better place to

16
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:13,080
Speaker 1: be than in the Freedom Hunt. Here with producer Mark,

17
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:16,160
Speaker 1: who even on the darkest days, is a ray of

18
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:20,479
Speaker 1: sunshine for all of us. So let's get to what

19
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:24,479
Speaker 1: when I wanted to begin are a deep dive into

20
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:27,759
Speaker 1: all things that matter today. With and that is the

21
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 1: Attorney General speaking over the weekend. Now we have all

22
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:37,560
Speaker 1: of this focus on the impeachment proceedings and more witnesses

23
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 1: this week. Vin Minn is going to be one of them.

24
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:41,120
Speaker 1: There are a few other witnesses I believe, in aid

25
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:45,679
Speaker 1: to Vice President Pence will speak. And there is a

26
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 1: clear idea from the Democrats on the left of what's

27
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 1: supposed to happen here, which is that the steady drum

28
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 1: beat of witness witness witness polls that are negative for

29
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 1: the president, witnesses that are negative for the president, that

30
00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 1: this will shape opinion over time. Even if you don't

31
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 1: view this, or you haven't viewed this from the beginning

32
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:10,520
Speaker 1: as a worthwhile exercise, you feel like they're trying to

33
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:14,560
Speaker 1: make this allegation against the president seemed much more damaging

34
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 1: than it really is. They're hyping this whole thing up.

35
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:20,840
Speaker 1: Even if you feel that way, certainly I do, and

36
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:25,359
Speaker 1: then some even stronger, even more strongly than I've described there.

37
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:31,200
Speaker 1: The media understands that part of the effect of propaganda

38
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 1: is to shift opinion through repetition. One of the things

39
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 1: that they can accomplish is just by saying day in

40
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 1: and day out. The president's going to be the president

41
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,519
Speaker 1: should be impeached. He's going to be impeached. The public

42
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:47,360
Speaker 1: is against the president. People start to even subconsciously say

43
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 1: to themselves, Wow, I guess there really is a means

44
00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 1: for there really is a necessity for impeachment here. And remember,

45
00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:00,680
Speaker 1: they're not going to convince you and me, or at

46
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:03,280
Speaker 1: least those of you who like me are very supportive

47
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 1: of the president despite understanding his flaws. What they're hoping

48
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 1: is that they can just edge up enough of the

49
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:15,840
Speaker 1: opposition to the president from the roughly forty percent of

50
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,919
Speaker 1: liberals who will believe anything about Trump, will do anything

51
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 1: to get rid of Trump, to get it just above

52
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 1: that you keep saying these polls the fifty one percent mark.

53
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 1: They're hoping that if they can manage that accomplishment, then

54
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,480
Speaker 1: there'll be enough of a ground swell to get rid

55
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 1: of this president, and perhaps not through the removal proceeding

56
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 1: by the Senate after a Senate trial, but that he

57
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:44,880
Speaker 1: will go into reelection wounded in the court of public opinion.

58
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 1: He will go into reelection with a newly emboldened left

59
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 1: wing opposition against him and a somewhat chasten demoralized Trump support.

60
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 1: That is the purpose of all of this. That's what

61
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:03,360
Speaker 1: they have been saying all along. But I wanted to

62
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:06,000
Speaker 1: take a step back from this for a minute, because

63
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 1: part of the justification of the impeachment proceeding part whatever,

64
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:13,960
Speaker 1: now it's now it's full impeachment. It was an inquiry

65
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:18,320
Speaker 1: whatever they're calling this now now the impeachment investigation is

66
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 1: that the president has been so terrible that he has

67
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 1: shredded the constitution. This is what you often here. He

68
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 1: has been shredding the norms that really hold this country politically, culturally,

69
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:36,880
Speaker 1: legally together, and that there's really a they're making an

70
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:40,280
Speaker 1: argument that it is the totality of all things Trump

71
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 1: that is impeachable. It's not even just any one specific act,

72
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,040
Speaker 1: of course, it can't be. They keep changing what that

73
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 1: specific act would be with every passing week, with each

74
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 1: passing day. In some cases, Molluman's clause, Russia collusion, quid

75
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:59,720
Speaker 1: pro quo, twenty fifth Amendment. Just go down the list

76
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 1: of all these different things that they say they're going

77
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,839
Speaker 1: to either use or will be the justification for using

78
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,560
Speaker 1: as a means of getting rid of the president. It's

79
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:10,680
Speaker 1: a it's a cycle it's a rotation. It's this, it's that,

80
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,560
Speaker 1: it's this, it's that, and now you're seeing that. To

81
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 1: hold all this together to be the overarching theme for

82
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:22,799
Speaker 1: the series of narratives about Trump being reckless and destroying

83
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:27,560
Speaker 1: the country is that he is destroying the norms. He

84
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:32,800
Speaker 1: is shredding the rule of law. And what I really

85
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 1: liked is that this week at Attorney General bar who

86
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 1: you know is effective because the left hates him. This

87
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 1: is a guy who's a very yeah, pretty uh laid back,

88
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:49,360
Speaker 1: i'd say, in his demeanor, a lawyer's lawyer. Was in

89
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:52,919
Speaker 1: the specifically in the part of the Dutch Department before

90
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 1: where the lawyers who evaluate what is what is department policy,

91
00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:00,280
Speaker 1: what is constitutional, what is not. So he's a brilliant lawyer.

92
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,520
Speaker 1: They keep saying he's a hatchetman for Trump, even though

93
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:04,560
Speaker 1: he had already been Attorney general and there was no

94
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:08,000
Speaker 1: one saying he was a hatchetman them. Then he's a

95
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 1: brilliant lawyer. Though he spoke at the Federalist Society of

96
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 1: the weekend and it was a brilliant speech. I know

97
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,120
Speaker 1: a lot of you aren't another time to watch the

98
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,320
Speaker 1: whole hour and thirty minutes or so of it. But

99
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:22,480
Speaker 1: I would tell you could just jump to the latter portion,

100
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 1: last thirty minutes or so, where he really gets into

101
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:29,719
Speaker 1: the meat of what's going on right now, of the

102
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,600
Speaker 1: way the resistance is waging its campaign against the president,

103
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,480
Speaker 1: and how it is they who are trashing the rule

104
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:39,960
Speaker 1: of law. They're the ones who are discarding norms and

105
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 1: engaging in a scorched earth campaign against the president. And

106
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 1: this one we had a couple moments here, But first

107
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,320
Speaker 1: he gets into the tactics of a left and then

108
00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:53,280
Speaker 1: he will get into who really who are the left

109
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 1: these days? When I use that term, we get to

110
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 1: the phrase, But first, let's start with the tactical approach.

111
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:03,320
Speaker 1: This was a brilliant amation from a fantastic lawyer who

112
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:05,720
Speaker 1: knows what the president is up against, who's on the

113
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 1: front lines as the attorney general of the judicial overreach

114
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:13,680
Speaker 1: that is a tool against the president. They're pretty open

115
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 1: about the hashtag resistance judiciary. Here's the Attorney General saying

116
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 1: for himself, please play clip two. Unfortunately, just in the

117
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 1: past few years, we have seen these conflicts take on

118
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:31,360
Speaker 1: an entirely new character. Immediately after President Trump won election,

119
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:37,200
Speaker 1: opponents inaugurated what they called the resistance, and they rallied

120
00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 1: around an explicit strategy of using every tool and maneuver

121
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:49,200
Speaker 1: to sabotage the functioning of the executive branch and his administration.

122
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,720
Speaker 1: The fact of the matter is that in waging a

123
00:07:52,920 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 1: scorched earth, no holds barred war of resistance against this administration,

124
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 1: it is the left that is engaged in the systematic

125
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 1: shredding of norms and undermining the rule of law. Every

126
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 1: American needs to hear that speech. A lot of them

127
00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:19,000
Speaker 1: will disagree say that Barr is just a tool of Trump.

128
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 1: This is the crux of what we are seeing right

129
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:27,119
Speaker 1: now with impeachment, with the Democrat and the lefts war

130
00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:34,559
Speaker 1: on this president, abusing the bureaucracy, weaponizing the intelligence community,

131
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 1: usurping executive authority through the judicial branch. This is what

132
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:42,880
Speaker 1: they are doing, and it is in fact, very much

133
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 1: out of the Saul Olinsky playbook. This goes back to

134
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:53,839
Speaker 1: the community, the origins of community organizers and doing things that,

135
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 1: while not explicitly illegal, are meant to use the system

136
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:03,479
Speaker 1: against itself to shut it down. We'll get into universal injunctions,

137
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:06,560
Speaker 1: which the Attorney General speaks about at some length in

138
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:09,920
Speaker 1: just a few minutes. That's one of the primary methods

139
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 1: of sabotage used against this administration. Judges have been essential

140
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 1: in this process to the left, and they've been acting

141
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:21,000
Speaker 1: in bad faith, and their decisions are appalling, and they

142
00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:23,880
Speaker 1: do violence to the rule of law while saying they

143
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:28,840
Speaker 1: are protecting the rule of law. But the systematic shredding

144
00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:30,720
Speaker 1: of norms and undermining the rule of law is what

145
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:35,120
Speaker 1: the left has completely embraced in the era of Trump.

146
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:39,680
Speaker 1: And they accuse us, they accuse our side of doing that.

147
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:43,080
Speaker 1: They're the ones who say that this president is a fascist,

148
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:49,560
Speaker 1: this president's an authoritarian. Meanwhile, there are six hundred judges

149
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:52,199
Speaker 1: on the federal bench from what bar sent him his speech.

150
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,400
Speaker 1: If you count them all up, you know all the

151
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,840
Speaker 1: different judges, circuit judges, and feder judges across the country.

152
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:03,320
Speaker 1: Any one of them has been able to shut down

153
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:09,400
Speaker 1: administration policy at any point in time. It's appalling what

154
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:12,400
Speaker 1: they have been doing. How could anyone have faith at

155
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:16,360
Speaker 1: the rule of law is universally applicable to all people

156
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:20,199
Speaker 1: in this country, that the justice system isn't just now

157
00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 1: a series of excuses used by the left to get

158
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 1: what they want when they want it, that's what the

159
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:29,200
Speaker 1: system has delivered. Or to undermine the system and say

160
00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:34,439
Speaker 1: that it's biased, it's unfair. The ideology of intersectionality, the

161
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:37,120
Speaker 1: Marxism underlying all of this on the left is a

162
00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:41,120
Speaker 1: constant excuse for, well, the very system itself is imbalanced.

163
00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:43,840
Speaker 1: One day, it's we have to do whatever the system

164
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:46,559
Speaker 1: says when they like it. When the election happen. When

165
00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:51,840
Speaker 1: Obama wins the election, it's election, elections have consequences. When

166
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:53,880
Speaker 1: Trump wins the election, it's let's get rid of the

167
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 1: electoral college, let's add seats to the next president who's

168
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:02,240
Speaker 1: a Democrat, so that they can stack the Supreme Court.

169
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 1: That all of a sudden, institutions don't matter. And they

170
00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:08,720
Speaker 1: keep doing this, and they seem to think that we

171
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:13,400
Speaker 1: don't recognize, but we do recognize. We understand that they

172
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:17,960
Speaker 1: want what they want. But perhaps even more important in

173
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:22,720
Speaker 1: some ways than when Barre illustrated the processes by which

174
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:25,600
Speaker 1: the left is undermining the processes of government, the ways

175
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:30,240
Speaker 1: in which they are duplicitous when they talk about institutions

176
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 1: and rule of law. How it's not serious, it's not

177
00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:38,920
Speaker 1: rooted in principle, it's completely the system a la carte.

178
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:40,679
Speaker 1: Some days they want to order this, some days they

179
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,559
Speaker 1: want to order that. It doesn't matter what they did

180
00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:51,440
Speaker 1: the day before. Barr also understands why liberals feel this way.

181
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,880
Speaker 1: What is it about the left wing mentality? And this

182
00:11:54,960 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 1: is true, This is the primary psychological emotional motivation that

183
00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:04,960
Speaker 1: the left has for so many of the policies, really

184
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:09,439
Speaker 1: for the majority of the primary issues that you look

185
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 1: at today that this country faces. Why does the left

186
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:17,400
Speaker 1: take the approach that it does. What is their governing philosophy,

187
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 1: or rather, what is their philosophy of life that makes

188
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:24,280
Speaker 1: them want to leverage the government so that it can

189
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:27,840
Speaker 1: control every aspect of life? Why do they want this?

190
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:32,560
Speaker 1: Why does the left think this way? Well, the Attorney

191
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 1: General in his speech nailed it. Please play Prus marclip three.

192
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 1: In any age, the so called progresses treat politics as

193
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 1: a religion. Their holy mission is to use the coercive

194
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:53,920
Speaker 1: power of the state to remake man and society in

195
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:59,400
Speaker 1: their own image, according to an abstract ideal of perfection.

196
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:06,360
Speaker 1: Whatever means they use are therefore justified, because by definition

197
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:14,280
Speaker 1: they are virtuous people pursuing a end. They are willing

198
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 1: to use any means necessary. To gain momentary advantage in

199
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:24,400
Speaker 1: achieving their end, regardless of the collateral consequences and the

200
00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:29,760
Speaker 1: systemic implications. They never ask whether the action they take

201
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,920
Speaker 1: could be justified as a general rule of conduct equally

202
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:39,600
Speaker 1: applicable to all sides. When the left has power, it

203
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:43,360
Speaker 1: must be utilized in service of this mission of the

204
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 1: daification of man through government. Government will make us better

205
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 1: than we would otherwise be. But whatever power is used

206
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:55,480
Speaker 1: to that end is inherently justified. But when people that

207
00:13:55,600 --> 00:14:01,520
Speaker 1: don't agree with their government ends are in power, then

208
00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:04,760
Speaker 1: that same mentality goes in reverse. It's no longer justifiable

209
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:09,079
Speaker 1: to use government, say to protect individual freedoms to do less.

210
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:12,319
Speaker 1: Now it must be the case that anything is justified

211
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:16,200
Speaker 1: against that cause. If they can do anything they want,

212
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:18,480
Speaker 1: because they know that if they have the power of government,

213
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 1: they will make a utopia here in this country. Then

214
00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:24,960
Speaker 1: when people who disagree with them are in power, they

215
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:28,360
Speaker 1: must do in their own mind whatever they have to

216
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,320
Speaker 1: in order to rest power away from those people to

217
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:37,160
Speaker 1: create the utopia that they have been promising. It is

218
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 1: one of the best summations of left wing thought left

219
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:45,320
Speaker 1: wing ideology I have ever come across. It is devastating

220
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:48,560
Speaker 1: in its truth, and it is necessary for all people,

221
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:51,800
Speaker 1: even leftists who will discount it, to hear because it

222
00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 1: is what we face right now in this country, and

223
00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:58,120
Speaker 1: not just turning for a moment to the specifics of

224
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:01,480
Speaker 1: how the process is used against the President of the

225
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 1: United States and the ways that this is done in

226
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:08,840
Speaker 1: bad faith. I mentioned universal injunctions when I was in DC.

227
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:12,720
Speaker 1: Spoke to some senior Department of Justice people about this

228
00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:15,760
Speaker 1: behind closed doors on more than one occasion, and this

229
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:21,480
Speaker 1: has become a major frustration of the administration, that this

230
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 1: is really a perversion of the role of the courts,

231
00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:26,800
Speaker 1: and that not only should the courts not be doing

232
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:30,920
Speaker 1: this as a general rule, there's a a clear change

233
00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:34,680
Speaker 1: in the attitude of left wing judges appointed by left

234
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:38,480
Speaker 1: wing politicians who think that just because they don't like

235
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,680
Speaker 1: a thing, they have the right to stop it from

236
00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:48,400
Speaker 1: happening and find the flimsiest legal rationale, the flimsiest the

237
00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:52,840
Speaker 1: Administrative Procedure Act, or some other such utter nonsense not

238
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,640
Speaker 1: intended for the purpose that the left is using it.

239
00:15:55,920 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 1: Here is the Attorney General speaking about those universal injunction

240
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:05,360
Speaker 1: pay twenty two. The court's indulgence of such claims, even

241
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:10,920
Speaker 1: if they are ultimately rejected, represents a serious intrusion on

242
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:16,840
Speaker 1: the president's constitutional prerogatives. The impact of these judicial intrusions

243
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:22,280
Speaker 1: on the executive responsibility have been hugely magnified by another

244
00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:28,280
Speaker 1: judicial innovation, the nationwide injunction, first used in nineteen sixty

245
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:33,400
Speaker 1: three and sparingly since then until recently. These court orders

246
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 1: enjoined enforcement of a policy not just as to the

247
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:42,960
Speaker 1: parties before the court, but nationwide against everybody. Now, since

248
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 1: President Trump has taken office, district courts have issued over

249
00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:55,080
Speaker 1: forty nationwide injunctions against the government. By comparison, during President

250
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:59,880
Speaker 1: Obama's first two years, district courts had issued two nationwide

251
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:03,480
Speaker 1: in junctions, both of which immediately vacated by the Ninth Circuit.

252
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:11,600
Speaker 1: It is no exaggeration to say that virtually every major

253
00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:15,760
Speaker 1: policy of the Trump administration has been subjected to immediate

254
00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:21,200
Speaker 1: freezing by the lower courts. No other president has been

255
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:31,280
Speaker 1: subjected to such sustained efforts to debilitate his agenda sabotage

256
00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:35,159
Speaker 1: by judges in the name of the very system that

257
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 1: they are using for the sabotage. It's appalling a twenty

258
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:46,840
Speaker 1: x increase in universal injunctions from federal judges from Obama

259
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:49,159
Speaker 1: to Trump of the same period. Does anyone think that

260
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,840
Speaker 1: that's an accident? You might say, well, then why is

261
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:55,119
Speaker 1: it that this happens in this way? Because the Left

262
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:58,320
Speaker 1: go back to the justification for all of their actions

263
00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:05,640
Speaker 1: that he gave the day offication, the deification of the

264
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:10,000
Speaker 1: state and the people in it through government power. How

265
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,000
Speaker 1: can you compete with that? We'll come back team. So, so,

266
00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 1: as I was saying about universal injunctions, the basis for

267
00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 1: this is flimsy enough as it is, because initially you

268
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:24,240
Speaker 1: would think that it would just enjoy the two parties

269
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:26,560
Speaker 1: in court. But what ends up happening is someone brings

270
00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 1: they go jurisdiction shopping, usually it is the Ninth Circuit,

271
00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:36,639
Speaker 1: and for pure reasons of policy difference, they will bring

272
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:40,200
Speaker 1: this suit in a federal court, and any federal judge

273
00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 1: can just say, I forbid the Trump administration from doing

274
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:49,119
Speaker 1: this thing anywhere in the federal jurisdiction of the United States,

275
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:51,800
Speaker 1: and until an appeals court comes along, until it makes

276
00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:56,080
Speaker 1: its way up the chain. That is the way the

277
00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:59,639
Speaker 1: system works right now. The only way to go around it,

278
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,520
Speaker 1: the only to deal with it, would be if Trump

279
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 1: did do something that would start to kick a little

280
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:09,240
Speaker 1: bit at the load bearing walls of the very separation

281
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:10,919
Speaker 1: of powers that we have and say, well, we're just

282
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:15,680
Speaker 1: going to ignore the court. That could happen. Some might

283
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 1: argue even that that's a necessary thing to happen on

284
00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:22,280
Speaker 1: some of these issues, but that would clearly create a standoff,

285
00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:26,040
Speaker 1: and people would start to ask, well, who which branch

286
00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:31,280
Speaker 1: of government is correct in this one? The decisions that

287
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:34,520
Speaker 1: are being made by the way these injunctions against Trump

288
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:37,679
Speaker 1: are wrong. That's one thing about it that's so interesting

289
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:40,119
Speaker 1: is that they make their way up to higher levels

290
00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:45,879
Speaker 1: in the courts, and overwhelmingly the Trump administration is victorious

291
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:47,720
Speaker 1: on this. You see this with the travel ban. I

292
00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,320
Speaker 1: remember the travel ban. That was what Sally Yates, the

293
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:57,480
Speaker 1: hashtag resistance Obama appointee interm Attorney General, refused to enforce.

294
00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:04,119
Speaker 1: She was so that the Trump administration was violating the

295
00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:07,720
Speaker 1: Constitution that she disobeyed a direct order from the commander

296
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:10,680
Speaker 1: in chief as the acting attorney general had to be fired.

297
00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:17,359
Speaker 1: Turns out Trump administration was correct on the merits that

298
00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:21,560
Speaker 1: they're completely within their rights under executive power to have

299
00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:26,160
Speaker 1: a temporary withdrawal of permission to come to the United

300
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 1: States for aliens from countries that are harboring or have

301
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:35,480
Speaker 1: terrorist issues. Turns out Trump was right. Do we ever

302
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:38,360
Speaker 1: hear about how well? Why did wait a second, how

303
00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:42,080
Speaker 1: could the acting Attorney general be so wrong? How could

304
00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:45,080
Speaker 1: she be so ignorant of the law that she would

305
00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:48,160
Speaker 1: disobey a direct order? And turns out the order's lawful

306
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:52,360
Speaker 1: because she's hashtag resistance. She's also the same person who

307
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:55,600
Speaker 1: was involved in the pretext of setting up General Flynn,

308
00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,720
Speaker 1: sending over FBI agents pretending like their colleagues and just

309
00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:02,520
Speaker 1: work through a quick issue and then maybe you lie

310
00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:04,639
Speaker 1: to us. They changed the three O two the record

311
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:08,520
Speaker 1: of that FBI meeting after the fact. Lisa Page, in fact,

312
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:10,320
Speaker 1: was the one who changed it. We remember what she

313
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,840
Speaker 1: thought about Trump and people who voted for Trump, people

314
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:16,600
Speaker 1: who worked for Trump. We're told that's all a coincidence.

315
00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:20,720
Speaker 1: Though nothing to see there. Oh, that was all a

316
00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:29,720
Speaker 1: completely legitimate law enforcement effort. Universal injunctions are the hijacking

317
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:32,680
Speaker 1: of the judiciary for anti Trump ends. That's what has

318
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 1: happened in this country. It has slowed down Trump's agenda

319
00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:41,560
Speaker 1: for people who are upset and I saw the headline

320
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:44,320
Speaker 1: today that would drudge that there were less deportations under

321
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:46,760
Speaker 1: Trump than they were under Obama. Will keep in mind

322
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 1: that Obama not only did not have the judiciary taking

323
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:58,199
Speaker 1: away his powers as president United States because there are

324
00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:00,560
Speaker 1: some left wing judges who don't like him, they in

325
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 1: fact would sit by and let him exceed his authority

326
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:09,680
Speaker 1: as commander in chief, exceed his executive powers as he did.

327
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:11,600
Speaker 1: When finally the I believe it was the Fifth Circuit

328
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:16,159
Speaker 1: Court had to say, no, you can't just use prosecutorial

329
00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:21,960
Speaker 1: discretion effectively enforcement prioritization another way of saying it, to

330
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:25,639
Speaker 1: not only let people stay in the country who are

331
00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:27,920
Speaker 1: in violation of law. This is the whole Dreamer thing.

332
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:32,119
Speaker 1: This is DACA right deferred action for childhood arrivals. Not

333
00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:36,200
Speaker 1: only is that, by the way, an abuse of executive discretion,

334
00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:39,840
Speaker 1: but to say DAPPA now the parents as well. Well,

335
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:43,560
Speaker 1: what if the president just says dreamers. If President Obama

336
00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:46,720
Speaker 1: had said dreamers, the parents of dreamers and anybody who

337
00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:49,359
Speaker 1: knows somebody who's either a dreamer or a parent of

338
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:53,080
Speaker 1: a dreamer, you know, their associates, they all get to

339
00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:56,720
Speaker 1: stay in the country. That's just mass amnesty the executive

340
00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:59,119
Speaker 1: feat would that be okay? I assure you there are

341
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:02,280
Speaker 1: a lot of left wing federal judges who would say, yes,

342
00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,840
Speaker 1: whatever you want to do because they like it. It

343
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:09,200
Speaker 1: doesn't matter what the law means, what the system would produce.

344
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:12,719
Speaker 1: If people who are dispassionate about the outcome looked at it,

345
00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:16,639
Speaker 1: they want a certain outcome, they will justify a certain outcome.

346
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:19,080
Speaker 1: The ends justify the means. That is the approach of

347
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:26,080
Speaker 1: the American left always. But to add insult to injury,

348
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:29,760
Speaker 1: Obama does this. The Fifth Circuit says, no, you can't

349
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,040
Speaker 1: do Dappa as well. You can't give people work permits

350
00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:34,119
Speaker 1: and confer all these rights just because you feel like

351
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:38,240
Speaker 1: it in contravention of congressional intent, which is there are

352
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:40,680
Speaker 1: immigration laws they have written that are supposed to matter.

353
00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:44,200
Speaker 1: You can't just wipe that all away. It's an enormous

354
00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:48,800
Speaker 1: actual abuse of executive discretion. Obama himself had said he

355
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:51,960
Speaker 1: did not have the authority to do this as a

356
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:54,719
Speaker 1: means of trying to pressure Congress to do something, and

357
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:58,280
Speaker 1: then they didn't, as is their right, and then Obama goes, yeah,

358
00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:01,439
Speaker 1: I'll just do it anyway. Was anyone calling him a

359
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,600
Speaker 1: fascist in the paper, was anyone saying he was an authoritarian.

360
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:09,080
Speaker 1: He was wiping away the laws of this country because

361
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:10,560
Speaker 1: he felt like it, because it was the right thing

362
00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:12,280
Speaker 1: to do. That's what he say is the right thing

363
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:18,680
Speaker 1: to do. And then to bring this full circle, an

364
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:23,800
Speaker 1: act of discretion by one executive is countermanded. The Trump

365
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:27,640
Speaker 1: presidency begins. Trump looks at this and says, all right,

366
00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:29,080
Speaker 1: we're going to have to have some kind of a

367
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:32,480
Speaker 1: negotiation over immigration here. But I'm not going to continue

368
00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:35,920
Speaker 1: this policy of my predecessor, where he decided that under

369
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:39,600
Speaker 1: his discretion as the president of the United States, there

370
00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:41,880
Speaker 1: would not there would be a top down order through

371
00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:45,280
Speaker 1: the executive branch that these dreamers as they are called,

372
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:48,760
Speaker 1: these young illegal aliens not all that young now, but

373
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,240
Speaker 1: that they wouldn't be prosecuted. Trump goes, well, no, we're

374
00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:54,760
Speaker 1: not going to continue with this official policy of the government.

375
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:58,600
Speaker 1: And what do you know. A judge in California goes, nope, sorry,

376
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:05,280
Speaker 1: what Obama half done? You cannot undo. How could any

377
00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:09,080
Speaker 1: person justify this? How could anyone who calls themselves a lawyer,

378
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:14,240
Speaker 1: a legal scholar, a judge, somebody who is steeped in

379
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:17,560
Speaker 1: these issues, you would think would really know what the

380
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:24,360
Speaker 1: implications are of this kind of emotion based recklessness when

381
00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:26,879
Speaker 1: it comes to the law. You would think that a

382
00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 1: judge would know better. But of course judges don't know

383
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:31,720
Speaker 1: better because they're getting what they want in the process,

384
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:37,240
Speaker 1: slowing it down. As a result, President Trump, because of

385
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:40,600
Speaker 1: federal judges in the state of California, or one federal

386
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:43,639
Speaker 1: judge in the state of California in particular, President Trump

387
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:49,120
Speaker 1: has had to continue for three years the policy of

388
00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:54,160
Speaker 1: his predecessor on immigration that was rooted entirely in executive discretion.

389
00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:58,320
Speaker 1: No Act of Congress, no statute whatsoever, was an abuse

390
00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:02,200
Speaker 1: of that discretion in the first place, And now judges

391
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:04,480
Speaker 1: say that Trump can undo it because of the Administrative

392
00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:07,439
Speaker 1: Procedures Act. You must be kidding me. This is why

393
00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:12,200
Speaker 1: I tweeted out after Baghdaddy was killed himself with our

394
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:18,800
Speaker 1: operators Special Forces operators or Delta Force operators right on

395
00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:21,320
Speaker 1: his trail, I said, oh, I'll just give it a

396
00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:25,040
Speaker 1: matter of a matter of hours before the Ninth Circuit

397
00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:29,400
Speaker 1: overturns Baghdaddy's killing under the Administrative Procedure Act. I mean, obviously,

398
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:32,920
Speaker 1: I'm making a joke. But this is farcical. This is

399
00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:36,080
Speaker 1: preposterous that people are being taught, and I know they

400
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:39,120
Speaker 1: are in law schools that what's going on right now

401
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:45,480
Speaker 1: is respecting the process and the law. They're destroying the law.

402
00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:50,720
Speaker 1: They're destroying what's supposed to be applicable to both sides.

403
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:53,520
Speaker 1: Power that one side has in a certain circumstance the

404
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:56,520
Speaker 1: other side is supposed to have. There is no good

405
00:26:56,600 --> 00:27:00,480
Speaker 1: faith anymore in the way they approach this administration. And

406
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:03,280
Speaker 1: I think going forward you'll see this with any administration.

407
00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:07,040
Speaker 1: It is just political total war. Whatever they have to

408
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:10,760
Speaker 1: do to get what they want, however they have to push,

409
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:13,320
Speaker 1: whatever construct they have to come up with. The media

410
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:17,480
Speaker 1: will magnify their lies, their shoddy analysis and say, oh no,

411
00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:20,200
Speaker 1: this is what's great. Trump a Trump is a racist.

412
00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:23,000
Speaker 1: Trump is an authoritarian. He's a fascist. Forget about the

413
00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:26,040
Speaker 1: fact that it is in fact the left that is

414
00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 1: willing to destroy this system in order to tear down

415
00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 1: the president of the United States. And it comes from

416
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:37,720
Speaker 1: even before Trump. The case that he felt was the

417
00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:44,119
Speaker 1: single greatest usurpation of executive authority was Bumtian, which had

418
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:46,960
Speaker 1: to do with the detainment of an all unlawful combatant

419
00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:49,159
Speaker 1: during a time of war. In the Global War on Terror,

420
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:55,600
Speaker 1: when the courts came into rule, the federal judiciary system

421
00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:59,040
Speaker 1: decided that the President of the United States has to

422
00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:03,679
Speaker 1: confer the same internal due process and legal rights to

423
00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:08,040
Speaker 1: an unlawful combatant in a time of war as they

424
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:12,320
Speaker 1: would for somebody who was detained inside this country. Well,

425
00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 1: is there any area of the law where the president

426
00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:17,879
Speaker 1: is supposed to have a greater degree of leeway and

427
00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:22,520
Speaker 1: discretion to include mistakes and collateral damage than in repulsing

428
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:27,760
Speaker 1: foreign adversaries, foreign invasion, foreign attackers. If you go back

429
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:29,520
Speaker 1: to the vision of the founders, this is why one

430
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:32,560
Speaker 1: of the reasons for an executive branch, which initially was

431
00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:36,240
Speaker 1: going to be really almost an errand boy of the legislature,

432
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:39,560
Speaker 1: if you go back to the before the Constitutional Convention.

433
00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:43,480
Speaker 1: But one of the reasons for this creation was specifically

434
00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:45,400
Speaker 1: because they knew that if you get if all of

435
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:49,840
Speaker 1: a sudden the British invaded, as they did again, you

436
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:52,600
Speaker 1: need somebody who can give orders that will be executed

437
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:56,280
Speaker 1: to repulse that invasion and to defend the very political

438
00:28:56,280 --> 00:29:00,280
Speaker 1: community that the Constitution is meant to protect. An auld

439
00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:03,360
Speaker 1: and now the courts are coming and saying no, you

440
00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:07,280
Speaker 1: can't do that. In fact, the courts tried to create

441
00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:11,840
Speaker 1: in the whole mess over the so called Muslim band,

442
00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:17,040
Speaker 1: a universal right around the world to get into a

443
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:20,960
Speaker 1: US court to challenge, as a foreigner with no rights

444
00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:25,080
Speaker 1: or ties whatsoever to the United States, to challenge your

445
00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:29,600
Speaker 1: exclusion from the country based on executive authority. I mean,

446
00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:31,080
Speaker 1: I know that, you know, it's easier to sit around

447
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:33,920
Speaker 1: and yell about the swamp and the swamp rats and

448
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:37,200
Speaker 1: drain the swamp and Maga and the wall and everything else.

449
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:42,680
Speaker 1: And look, I'm all for the cultural aspects and the

450
00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:48,160
Speaker 1: communication aspects of the Trump vision because we have to

451
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:50,360
Speaker 1: win elections. So I'm not putting all that down. I'm

452
00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:53,920
Speaker 1: just saying what is happening here, What is happening in

453
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:57,680
Speaker 1: the judiciary, and with a left wing that views itself

454
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:02,040
Speaker 1: as inherently justified in taking any act, this has ramifications

455
00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:06,680
Speaker 1: even beyond the Trump administration. And this is really really important.

456
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:11,280
Speaker 1: They are corrupting, They are undermining some of the most

457
00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:17,880
Speaker 1: powerful institutions in our government. They are imbalancing the balance

458
00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 1: of powers intentionally, so they are proving to any American

459
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:24,880
Speaker 1: who's willing to open his or her eyes that they

460
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:27,760
Speaker 1: do not approach these issues with good faith. They do

461
00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:31,440
Speaker 1: not care what the collateral damages to the system. And

462
00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:34,320
Speaker 1: as they do this, they claim they are saving the

463
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:37,760
Speaker 1: system in the error of Trump. The left is willing

464
00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:43,440
Speaker 1: to burn down the village of this American experiment in

465
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:47,680
Speaker 1: order to save it. That is what they may not

466
00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:50,240
Speaker 1: recognize it as such, that is what they are doing.

467
00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:54,240
Speaker 1: There is no person who could look at the way

468
00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:58,560
Speaker 1: that they have been leveraging, specifically the judiciary as a

469
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 1: weapon as a club to batter this Trump administration with,

470
00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:06,280
Speaker 1: and not say, how are we supposed to have faith

471
00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:10,680
Speaker 1: in this institution going forward? This is also why it

472
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:12,920
Speaker 1: looms so large in the mind to the left, the

473
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:17,520
Speaker 1: prospect of not being able to count on a left

474
00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:21,400
Speaker 1: of center Supreme Court, of not being able to count

475
00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:25,880
Speaker 1: on an ultimate judicial body that will give them the

476
00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:31,680
Speaker 1: most important policy and cultural and political victories that they've

477
00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:35,840
Speaker 1: been wanting for decades. Many leftists feel like they can't

478
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:37,840
Speaker 1: live in America, or that's not the case. The least

479
00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:41,120
Speaker 1: they'll say that openly. If they can't have a left

480
00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:45,760
Speaker 1: of center court, a bunch of dictators in robes deciding

481
00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:49,000
Speaker 1: what will be in America irrespective of what the law

482
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:53,560
Speaker 1: actually says. Then they no longer respect the law. This

483
00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:58,120
Speaker 1: goes back to progressives, as the Attorney General said, treating

484
00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:01,840
Speaker 1: politics as a religion, with the holy mission to use

485
00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:06,320
Speaker 1: the coercive power of the state to remake man and

486
00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:10,440
Speaker 1: society in their own image according to an abstract ideal

487
00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:15,880
Speaker 1: of perfection. Whatever means they use are therefore justified, because

488
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:20,560
Speaker 1: by definition they are a virtuous people pursuing deific ends.

489
00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:26,880
Speaker 1: For the left, the utopia they seek is the only

490
00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:31,160
Speaker 1: justification for any means. We are seeing that play out

491
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:35,920
Speaker 1: in real time in this country, including in the weaponization

492
00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:41,600
Speaker 1: of impeachment as an explicitly partisan tool. Why are we

493
00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:46,040
Speaker 1: going to use the impeachment mechanism against this president? Why

494
00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:48,440
Speaker 1: are the leftist? Why are Nanci Pelosi walking around saying

495
00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:51,920
Speaker 1: things that they must know to be untrue. They're not

496
00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:54,640
Speaker 1: that stupid. They know what they're saying is a lie.

497
00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:59,760
Speaker 1: Because anything to defeat Trump is inherently justified. Anything to

498
00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:02,000
Speaker 1: her his chances at reelection, or even to remove him

499
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:06,160
Speaker 1: from office has to be justified. My friends, This kind

500
00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:12,479
Speaker 1: of absolutism is the wellspring of totalitarianism. Do not forget it.

501
00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:14,280
Speaker 1: I think that what you're going to see in the

502
00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:19,760
Speaker 1: next weeks to come is this president will be impeached,

503
00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:30,600
Speaker 1: and he should be impeached. And he should be impeached

504
00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:36,360
Speaker 1: because he has used his office to obstruct justice. He

505
00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:39,680
Speaker 1: should be impeached because he is in violation of the

506
00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:45,120
Speaker 1: Emolument's clause of the Constitution, and where he is very blatantly,

507
00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:49,600
Speaker 1: i mean really incredibly used his office to make more

508
00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:53,320
Speaker 1: money for his family. And lastly, of course he should

509
00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:58,800
Speaker 1: be in peach because he has used national security aid

510
00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:03,280
Speaker 1: to Ukraine in order to try to undermine a potential

511
00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:07,320
Speaker 1: political opponent. And those are roll grounds for impeachment. Why

512
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:12,160
Speaker 1: have this whole sham of an investigation. If somebody like

513
00:34:12,239 --> 00:34:15,279
Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders, who's a sitting senator and who therefore will

514
00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:17,920
Speaker 1: be called upon as this goes along, to cast a

515
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:20,719
Speaker 1: vote in favor of removing the president United States, we

516
00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:23,239
Speaker 1: really have to sit around and pretend that the Democrats

517
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:27,320
Speaker 1: haven't already made up their mind here. People like Nancy

518
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:29,719
Speaker 1: Pelosi look at us and say, wait, we don't know

519
00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:33,040
Speaker 1: if it's going to be impeachment or not. No, they're

520
00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:35,680
Speaker 1: going to impeach this president, and if they could remove him,

521
00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:38,480
Speaker 1: make no mistake about it, if they happen to have

522
00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:42,759
Speaker 1: the two thirds votes required in the Senate, by the way,

523
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:44,560
Speaker 1: I'm sure they'll be complaints about that, and they will

524
00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:47,919
Speaker 1: start to say it should just be a bare majority, right,

525
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:50,040
Speaker 1: just a basic majority in the Senate should be enough,

526
00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:52,360
Speaker 1: because then the Democrats would feel like they could probably

527
00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:57,200
Speaker 1: pressure one or two, maybe three Republicans switch. They'll be

528
00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:59,240
Speaker 1: complaining about that part of the system. Because they complained

529
00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:00,840
Speaker 1: about any part of this. It doesn't give them what

530
00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:03,640
Speaker 1: they want. But if they're going to tell us that

531
00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:08,759
Speaker 1: Trump is already guilty, why have this political trial? It's

532
00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:12,200
Speaker 1: all sham, folks, welcome back team. So what exactly do

533
00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:16,480
Speaker 1: the Democrats say, this whole impeachment thing is is about

534
00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:19,240
Speaker 1: how's it's going to go? You know, what's their position

535
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:25,640
Speaker 1: on this? Nancy Pelosi was saying some bonkers stuff over

536
00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:28,680
Speaker 1: the weekend, which I guess not surprising, is Nancy Pelosi.

537
00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:34,200
Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosi's out there saying that the president has the

538
00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:38,120
Speaker 1: right to defend himself and this impeachment inquiry if he

539
00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:40,400
Speaker 1: wants to, and people would say, well, why would he,

540
00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:44,319
Speaker 1: why would he do that. Here's Nancy telling us all that,

541
00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:46,719
Speaker 1: you know, maybe the president has some super secret things

542
00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:49,719
Speaker 1: somewhere that he just wants to present us. I can't

543
00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:51,680
Speaker 1: believe this woman, speak of the House, folks. But here

544
00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:55,600
Speaker 1: we are play six. That vote has not taken place

545
00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:59,359
Speaker 1: to proceed necessarily with impeachment. But do you think you'll

546
00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:03,080
Speaker 1: go through all of this and not vote to impeach

547
00:36:03,120 --> 00:36:06,280
Speaker 1: the president? That remains with the facts of the president

548
00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:10,719
Speaker 1: has information that demonstrates his innocence in all of this,

549
00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:15,640
Speaker 1: which we haven't seen. His trans transcript of a phone

550
00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:18,959
Speaker 1: call is tucked away in a high high at least

551
00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:24,319
Speaker 1: sensitive compartmentalized intelligence server, so we can't see that. If

552
00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:30,240
Speaker 1: he has information that is exculptatory that means X taking

553
00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:34,200
Speaker 1: away cult the blame, then we look forward to seeing him.

554
00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:41,400
Speaker 1: It's like maybe he's got some you know, magic genie

555
00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:44,680
Speaker 1: in a bottle somewhere. It's gonna just like make him

556
00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:48,480
Speaker 1: innocent of everything. I mean, Nancy Pelosi, do anyone does

557
00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:52,560
Speaker 1: anyone who's a serious even being listener and say, yeah, yeah,

558
00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:55,279
Speaker 1: they're not going to impeach the president. Sure, there's a

559
00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:58,720
Speaker 1: there's a possible future in which they're gonna say, wow,

560
00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:01,040
Speaker 1: you mean Trump is and it's into all the horrible

561
00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:03,319
Speaker 1: things we've been saying about him for three years now.

562
00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:07,440
Speaker 1: She speaks to us all like we're idiots, folks. She

563
00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:11,720
Speaker 1: really does. No one holds her accountable for it. Would

564
00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:14,480
Speaker 1: you ever vote to not impeach a president? Well, you know,

565
00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:19,320
Speaker 1: maybe he is going to be defending us against an

566
00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:23,680
Speaker 1: invasion of space aliens and at that point we'll have

567
00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:25,719
Speaker 1: to just rally around our presence, So maybe we want

568
00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:27,319
Speaker 1: impeach him then, I mean, that's more or less what

569
00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:32,719
Speaker 1: she's saying. This is absurd. But she can't she can't

570
00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:35,080
Speaker 1: give away the whole game here, can't tell us what's

571
00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:37,799
Speaker 1: really going to happen, which is that all of this

572
00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:41,279
Speaker 1: pretense that there's they're presenting information to get to the

573
00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:43,120
Speaker 1: bottom of this, to get to the facts. We already

574
00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:44,360
Speaker 1: know the facts. We already know what was said of

575
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:47,040
Speaker 1: the phone call. They already released the transcript. So what

576
00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:52,480
Speaker 1: I saw today a poll that said that seventy percent

577
00:37:53,719 --> 00:38:00,600
Speaker 1: of people seventy percent of people in the poll think

578
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:03,239
Speaker 1: that the president's conversation was wrong. I don't think it

579
00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:07,160
Speaker 1: was wrong. I think it was unwise because he would

580
00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:10,680
Speaker 1: he should know that there are deep state elements that

581
00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:13,400
Speaker 1: have access to his conversations that could twist it and

582
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:16,600
Speaker 1: do exactly what we have seen happen right now. I

583
00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:18,359
Speaker 1: think he should have been more careful, But then again,

584
00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:21,759
Speaker 1: I'm sure some of you would come back to me with, well, Buck,

585
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:24,400
Speaker 1: how careful can he be when they're willing to twist

586
00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:27,839
Speaker 1: his words and lie about him and break the law

587
00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:30,440
Speaker 1: in some cases to leak about this president or some

588
00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:33,200
Speaker 1: of his advisors and what they've done. They're willing to

589
00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:37,160
Speaker 1: do anything, as the Attorney General said, They're willing to

590
00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:39,799
Speaker 1: justify whatever it is that they think they have to do.

591
00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:43,719
Speaker 1: They believe it's inherently justified if it's anti Trump. So

592
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:46,759
Speaker 1: how careful could he be? That's another point of view

593
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:48,279
Speaker 1: on this, although I think the President probably could be

594
00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:53,120
Speaker 1: a little bit more cautious in how he speaks about

595
00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:56,960
Speaker 1: things and what he says. But this then leads us

596
00:38:56,960 --> 00:38:59,120
Speaker 1: to where they really want to take it. This week,

597
00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:10,560
Speaker 1: the oh the president should testify in his defense. Chuck Schumer,

598
00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:15,799
Speaker 1: for example, hopping on this bandwagon. Here's what he said,

599
00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:20,440
Speaker 1: play ten. Donald Trump doesn't agree with what he's hearing,

600
00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:24,320
Speaker 1: doesn't like what he's hearing, he shouldn't tweet, he should

601
00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:28,080
Speaker 1: come to the committee and testify under oath, and he

602
00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:30,560
Speaker 1: should allow all those around him to come to the

603
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:35,880
Speaker 1: committee and testify under oath. I would just respond to Schumer,

604
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:42,600
Speaker 1: how dare you really you think that your ridiculous little

605
00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:46,520
Speaker 1: committee of partisan hacks should be able to pull the

606
00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:48,719
Speaker 1: presence of the United States in a coequal branch of

607
00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:54,480
Speaker 1: government and harangue him and mock him and try to

608
00:39:54,960 --> 00:40:01,840
Speaker 1: entrap him, perhaps in perjury. Now, President Trump did tweet

609
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:05,000
Speaker 1: about this and said that he would think about it,

610
00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:10,600
Speaker 1: and I'm here to say that it would be wrong

611
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:15,160
Speaker 1: for the president to do this on many levels. It

612
00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:18,719
Speaker 1: would be wrong from the perspective of the lack of

613
00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:22,000
Speaker 1: respect that it would show for the separation of powers.

614
00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:26,160
Speaker 1: What's to prevent the next administration, the administration after that,

615
00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:28,799
Speaker 1: from having just a bare majority in the House of

616
00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:32,279
Speaker 1: Representatives get to pull the President of United States in

617
00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:37,080
Speaker 1: and use it as an opportunity to grandstand and assault

618
00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:38,920
Speaker 1: the President of the United States verbally in front of

619
00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:42,319
Speaker 1: the whole country for partisan ends. That's the precedent that

620
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:47,320
Speaker 1: we should have set here. This is absurd, But these

621
00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:52,200
Speaker 1: people are absurd. These Democrats who keep saying these things

622
00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:55,800
Speaker 1: about Trump and who keep making claims about their willingness

623
00:40:55,880 --> 00:41:01,360
Speaker 1: to respect the system. They are lieing. They are lying

624
00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:05,400
Speaker 1: about this. We know what they're going to do, we

625
00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:08,719
Speaker 1: know how they feel. We are all smart enough to

626
00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:11,640
Speaker 1: figure this out if we just spend a moment thinking

627
00:41:11,680 --> 00:41:16,319
Speaker 1: about it. And yet here they have. Here you have

628
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:19,840
Speaker 1: a Senator Chuck Schumer telling us that the president should

629
00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:21,680
Speaker 1: Could you imagine for a moment. I mean, this was

630
00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:24,480
Speaker 1: just like the old playbook, though, isn't it. They They've

631
00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:27,759
Speaker 1: got these these routines they go through to try to

632
00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:31,279
Speaker 1: undermine the president. Remember, originally it was they wanted him

633
00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:36,600
Speaker 1: to testify to Muller, that sham of a probe run

634
00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:41,040
Speaker 1: by Weissman, now an MSNBC analyst, folks gee, I wonder

635
00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:46,960
Speaker 1: what his politics are. They were going to let Weissman

636
00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:49,800
Speaker 1: and his Democrat attack dogs go after the President of

637
00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:54,560
Speaker 1: the United States under oath, try to provoke a crisis,

638
00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:57,680
Speaker 1: a moment perhaps that they would seize on as lying

639
00:41:57,760 --> 00:42:00,719
Speaker 1: under oath. Keep in mind that when it's a lie

640
00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:03,160
Speaker 1: and not a lie is something that's always up for interpretation.

641
00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:05,120
Speaker 1: For Democrats, Bill Clinton, did he lie in the oath.

642
00:42:05,280 --> 00:42:07,640
Speaker 1: Of course he did. But they say that that wasn't

643
00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:13,239
Speaker 1: a crime lie, that was just like a personal lie. Huh.

644
00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:16,200
Speaker 1: There we go. He ends justify the means whatever they

645
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:22,120
Speaker 1: want they get. There's no real rules that apply. You're

646
00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:24,960
Speaker 1: gonna have the president testify to them all approbe And

647
00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:29,000
Speaker 1: now they want to have the President subject himself to

648
00:42:29,200 --> 00:42:32,600
Speaker 1: Democrats in Congress being able to pull him apart in

649
00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:37,000
Speaker 1: public and make all kinds of accusations. And then if

650
00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:39,719
Speaker 1: the President responds by the way, it would also undermine,

651
00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:42,040
Speaker 1: in my view, would undermine the Congress because this president,

652
00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:44,160
Speaker 1: if he did do this, it would be quite a spectacle.

653
00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:47,240
Speaker 1: And I worry because this president's a fighter. I worry

654
00:42:47,239 --> 00:42:50,600
Speaker 1: about his judgment on these issues. Sometimes you do get

655
00:42:50,600 --> 00:42:53,320
Speaker 1: the sense that if left to his own devices, perhaps

656
00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:58,840
Speaker 1: he would have testified or would have subjected himself, I

657
00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:02,520
Speaker 1: should say, to questioning the Mullet probe and left to

658
00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:04,839
Speaker 1: his own judgment and his own devices, I can't say

659
00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:07,880
Speaker 1: I'm one hundred percent sure that he wouldn't subject himself

660
00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:14,880
Speaker 1: to this congressional impeachment inquiry. The whole thing, isn't it.

661
00:43:15,280 --> 00:43:18,200
Speaker 1: It's just a fraud. It's just such a frauds, such

662
00:43:18,200 --> 00:43:21,399
Speaker 1: a waste of everybody's time. And all these people who

663
00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:23,160
Speaker 1: are saying that they want they think the president should

664
00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:26,280
Speaker 1: be removed from office. Maybe the president should be removed

665
00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:28,040
Speaker 1: from office. We'll find out in less than a year.

666
00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:32,719
Speaker 1: It's called an election. There's anybody who believes in our

667
00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:35,560
Speaker 1: system of government has good faith in the fact that

668
00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:37,600
Speaker 1: you should be abled. You should be willing as an

669
00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:40,799
Speaker 1: American to concede power to the other side when they

670
00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:44,120
Speaker 1: duly win an election. Anyone who believes in that should

671
00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:48,319
Speaker 1: think that the deference here, if there's any question about

672
00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:51,440
Speaker 1: the president's conduct and whether it even could be construed

673
00:43:51,520 --> 00:43:53,680
Speaker 1: as worthy of being removed from office, the deference should

674
00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:57,120
Speaker 1: be given to the next election. The deference should be

675
00:43:58,360 --> 00:44:02,800
Speaker 1: that the system we have is all about the will

676
00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:09,000
Speaker 1: of the people ultimately, and that is evidence through the

677
00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:13,680
Speaker 1: election process. That's what the president has the awesome powers

678
00:44:13,719 --> 00:44:17,680
Speaker 1: that he does. It's because the people give that power

679
00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:21,399
Speaker 1: to him through our system of government, and to take

680
00:44:21,440 --> 00:44:25,640
Speaker 1: it away from him based on partisan whim and narrative

681
00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:29,799
Speaker 1: and these lies, It's just what do the Democrats really

682
00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:32,320
Speaker 1: think what happened after that? I always wonder about that too,

683
00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:34,919
Speaker 1: If they did manage to remove the president and Vice

684
00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:38,160
Speaker 1: President Pence all of a sudden became the president of

685
00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:42,399
Speaker 1: the United States going into a reelection. Do they think

686
00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:44,760
Speaker 1: that we want to have more lectures from the left

687
00:44:45,360 --> 00:44:48,440
Speaker 1: about the need to respect our democracy and the system,

688
00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:54,640
Speaker 1: and they really think that the Trump movement would go away,

689
00:44:54,680 --> 00:44:56,840
Speaker 1: that the suspicion that many of us have that the

690
00:44:56,840 --> 00:44:59,520
Speaker 1: political system is rigged by a class of elites who

691
00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:06,000
Speaker 1: are much more bumbling fools than they are intellectual superiors.

692
00:45:07,239 --> 00:45:09,399
Speaker 1: Do we think that that would go away? Or would

693
00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:13,480
Speaker 1: it actually get worse? Would that sentiment be proven to

694
00:45:13,520 --> 00:45:17,319
Speaker 1: be true and it would actually just harden. We would

695
00:45:17,360 --> 00:45:21,279
Speaker 1: become even further entrenched in our opinions of this, We

696
00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:24,160
Speaker 1: would be even more separated, more polarized, a word the

697
00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:27,759
Speaker 1: media loves to use. I think we all know it

698
00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:29,920
Speaker 1: would just get worse. I think we all know that

699
00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:34,080
Speaker 1: it would by no means damp in the frenzy right

700
00:45:34,080 --> 00:45:37,840
Speaker 1: now if you had this president removed from office. If anything,

701
00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:41,319
Speaker 1: I think it would create a massive schism, not just

702
00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:45,280
Speaker 1: a polarization of ideas, but a schism in this country

703
00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:48,040
Speaker 1: and the belief that this is now still the country

704
00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:51,080
Speaker 1: that was left to us by the founding fathers, that

705
00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:53,440
Speaker 1: we still have a system that functions the way it

706
00:45:53,520 --> 00:45:57,239
Speaker 1: claims to. It starts to get scary when you think

707
00:45:57,280 --> 00:46:01,000
Speaker 1: about the removal of a president under these circumstances, with

708
00:46:01,120 --> 00:46:04,719
Speaker 1: such a mountain of evidence that they've been trying to

709
00:46:04,760 --> 00:46:06,799
Speaker 1: remove from from the very beginning, that he is not

710
00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:12,359
Speaker 1: allowed to be president. Because they say so, people think

711
00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:16,279
Speaker 1: this will improve the situation. They're delusional. But the Left

712
00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:18,960
Speaker 1: is very delusional these days. That's one of the reasons why.

713
00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:25,440
Speaker 1: That's why it's so troubling. They have no self awareness whatsoever.

714
00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:30,279
Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosi, for example, had this to say about how

715
00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:34,000
Speaker 1: Trump is mean and he insults people. Play clip five.

716
00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:37,919
Speaker 1: But the president and perhaps some of the White House

717
00:46:37,960 --> 00:46:40,560
Speaker 1: have to know that the words of the president weigh

718
00:46:40,560 --> 00:46:45,520
Speaker 1: a ton. They are very significant, and he should not

719
00:46:45,600 --> 00:46:49,520
Speaker 1: frivolously throw out insults. But that's what he does. I

720
00:46:49,600 --> 00:46:54,919
Speaker 1: think part of it is his own insecurity as an impostor.

721
00:46:54,960 --> 00:46:58,520
Speaker 1: I think he knows full well that he's in that

722
00:46:58,719 --> 00:47:03,160
Speaker 1: office way over his head, and so he has to

723
00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:09,440
Speaker 1: diminish everyone else. Classic Nancy Pelosi moment. The President shouldn't

724
00:47:09,440 --> 00:47:11,920
Speaker 1: insult people because he's a big dumb, stupid face who

725
00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:17,759
Speaker 1: shouldn't be the president. Wow. Okay, Nancy, people should really

726
00:47:17,760 --> 00:47:21,840
Speaker 1: listen to you. You're giving them really fair minded advice

727
00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:25,000
Speaker 1: on all of this. But notice how she used the

728
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:32,319
Speaker 1: word impostor. I often speak to you about how the

729
00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:37,520
Speaker 1: Democrats have not accepted the twenty sixteen election, and I

730
00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:41,439
Speaker 1: mean that they have not accepted that they lost. Trump won,

731
00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:45,880
Speaker 1: and that their rejection of him as a legitimate president

732
00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:49,600
Speaker 1: is in fact a rejection of this system that we have.

733
00:47:51,200 --> 00:47:53,200
Speaker 1: They can't claim to love the system, to want to

734
00:47:53,200 --> 00:47:54,839
Speaker 1: protect it, to want to hold it close and keep

735
00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:59,680
Speaker 1: it safe in the warm at night, and be upending it,

736
00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:03,359
Speaker 1: throwing it out in the dead of night because they

737
00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:06,400
Speaker 1: don't like what the system gave them in twenty sixteen.

738
00:48:06,480 --> 00:48:14,360
Speaker 1: That's exactly what they're doing. Impostor. That's quite a word

739
00:48:14,440 --> 00:48:18,040
Speaker 1: to use. That's the Speaker of the House, my friends,

740
00:48:20,239 --> 00:48:23,960
Speaker 1: the most powerful elected Democrat in the country, and she

741
00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:26,120
Speaker 1: is saying that the President of the United States is

742
00:48:26,239 --> 00:48:31,439
Speaker 1: not legitimately the president. Those are her words, and it's

743
00:48:31,440 --> 00:48:33,000
Speaker 1: not the first time this has been said. They have

744
00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:35,480
Speaker 1: called him a traitor, they have called him a rapist,

745
00:48:35,480 --> 00:48:37,080
Speaker 1: they have called him a racist, they've called him a

746
00:48:37,080 --> 00:48:42,040
Speaker 1: white nationals and now they call him an impostor. If

747
00:48:42,040 --> 00:48:46,360
Speaker 1: somebody really was an impostor, should you respect the office

748
00:48:46,400 --> 00:48:48,640
Speaker 1: that they hold and the way that they conduct, the

749
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:52,920
Speaker 1: way that they use those powers while in office. Of

750
00:48:52,960 --> 00:48:56,520
Speaker 1: course not, it's all illegitimate. Well, if Trump really is

751
00:48:56,520 --> 00:48:58,840
Speaker 1: an impostor, and therefore everything that he has done and

752
00:48:58,880 --> 00:49:01,960
Speaker 1: seeks to do is I jimate, doesn't that then justify

753
00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:04,480
Speaker 1: any action whatsoever that the Left is willing to take

754
00:49:04,520 --> 00:49:07,520
Speaker 1: in order to stop him, to slow him down, to

755
00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:12,320
Speaker 1: make things harder. Ah, It's almost like what Attorney General

756
00:49:12,360 --> 00:49:15,920
Speaker 1: Barr said about the true nature of the left and

757
00:49:15,920 --> 00:49:19,520
Speaker 1: their willingness to go scorched earth, stop at nothing to

758
00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:24,920
Speaker 1: obstruct this president. The Democrats themselves tell us this on

759
00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:29,160
Speaker 1: a regular basis. They tell us what they think of

760
00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:31,960
Speaker 1: as president, and therefore they also are telling us what

761
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:36,120
Speaker 1: they are willing to do to stop him. The answer

762
00:49:36,200 --> 00:49:40,440
Speaker 1: that is absolutely anything. Twenty fourth of September, it was

763
00:49:40,520 --> 00:49:46,040
Speaker 1: when I called for a fuller expansion inquiry. What's going on?

764
00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:49,960
Speaker 1: But to proceed with the inquiry, and that kind of

765
00:49:50,040 --> 00:49:54,680
Speaker 1: changed our communication until that day in the room when

766
00:49:54,719 --> 00:49:58,680
Speaker 1: I said, all Rose, mister President, with you lead to Putin,

767
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:02,080
Speaker 1: whether it's giving them a strong or foothold in the

768
00:50:02,120 --> 00:50:05,520
Speaker 1: Middle East, by what you did with Turkey and Syria. Well,

769
00:50:05,560 --> 00:50:08,840
Speaker 1: what you did by withholding a grant was holding a

770
00:50:09,040 --> 00:50:12,920
Speaker 1: to military assistance. Voted to buy Congress to Ukraine to

771
00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:17,000
Speaker 1: the benefit of Putin Lemon thousand more than like thirteen

772
00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:20,080
Speaker 1: thousand by now Ukrainians have died at the hands of

773
00:50:20,120 --> 00:50:23,680
Speaker 1: the Russians. They needed that military aid. And with his

774
00:50:24,200 --> 00:50:28,400
Speaker 1: disparaging remarks about NATO and questioning our commitment to NATO,

775
00:50:28,760 --> 00:50:33,479
Speaker 1: that's to Putin's advantage. So we do have, shall we say,

776
00:50:33,920 --> 00:50:38,359
Speaker 1: a candid relationship. Nancy Pelosi can't be that stupid. I mean,

777
00:50:38,360 --> 00:50:40,320
Speaker 1: I don't think she's very bright. I think she's cunning.

778
00:50:41,800 --> 00:50:44,240
Speaker 1: She's not wise, she's not in intellectual, but she's cunning.

779
00:50:44,280 --> 00:50:45,719
Speaker 1: She does whatever she has to do to get what

780
00:50:45,760 --> 00:50:47,520
Speaker 1: she wants and has been doing it for a long

781
00:50:47,640 --> 00:50:51,440
Speaker 1: enough time that she's pretty good at it. Everything for

782
00:50:51,480 --> 00:50:54,680
Speaker 1: the benefit of Putin. They really needed that military Really,

783
00:50:55,040 --> 00:50:58,680
Speaker 1: where was wimpy Commander in Chief Obama on helping the

784
00:50:58,800 --> 00:51:01,560
Speaker 1: Ukrainians when it came to Putin. Oh, let's just send

785
00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:06,880
Speaker 1: them blankets. Let's send them, you know, sippy cups. No,

786
00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:10,880
Speaker 1: they needed weapons. They needed weapons. Obama wouldn't give the

787
00:51:10,880 --> 00:51:14,560
Speaker 1: weapons Trump. Would you think the Putin liked that? Do

788
00:51:14,600 --> 00:51:17,360
Speaker 1: you think that that was? Someone explained this to me.

789
00:51:17,440 --> 00:51:21,680
Speaker 1: Oh and in Syria, where Trump decided to let the

790
00:51:21,840 --> 00:51:25,239
Speaker 1: battlefield commanders make the decisions necessary to defeat ices. That's

791
00:51:25,280 --> 00:51:28,200
Speaker 1: why I got wrapped up so quickly. The speed of

792
00:51:28,239 --> 00:51:31,319
Speaker 1: the air campaign, very underreported in the media, by the way,

793
00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:36,120
Speaker 1: against the Islamic State, dramatically accelerated because of President Trump.

794
00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:38,239
Speaker 1: Obama didn't want to deal with the risk and the

795
00:51:38,239 --> 00:51:43,120
Speaker 1: collateral damage, but that also included when Trump was in charge,

796
00:51:43,160 --> 00:51:45,240
Speaker 1: blowing up a couple of hundred Russians in the desert?

797
00:51:45,440 --> 00:51:49,480
Speaker 1: Was that doing Putin's bidding? Was it doing Putin's bidding?

798
00:51:49,960 --> 00:51:53,040
Speaker 1: When Trump put more sanctions on Russia than even Obama did.

799
00:51:53,680 --> 00:51:58,840
Speaker 1: I want to know what exactly does Nancy Pelosi think

800
00:51:59,239 --> 00:52:01,640
Speaker 1: are the outer limits of her ability to just make

801
00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:09,080
Speaker 1: crap up all for the benefit of Putin. These people

802
00:52:09,440 --> 00:52:15,520
Speaker 1: are grotesque in their mendacity or mendaciousness, one of those

803
00:52:15,520 --> 00:52:20,719
Speaker 1: words is right. These people will lie to you. They

804
00:52:20,760 --> 00:52:25,480
Speaker 1: will come up with narratives that serve a function in

805
00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:29,160
Speaker 1: politics that aren't rooted in truth or reality, and they

806
00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:31,440
Speaker 1: will run with it, and they will tell you that

807
00:52:31,480 --> 00:52:35,040
Speaker 1: they're doing it for your benefit. The fact that Nancy

808
00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:38,960
Speaker 1: Pelosi is the most powerful Democrat in the country tells

809
00:52:38,960 --> 00:52:41,040
Speaker 1: you really everything you have to know about the Democratic Party.

810
00:52:42,239 --> 00:52:47,799
Speaker 1: They are and justify the means, say what you have

811
00:52:47,840 --> 00:52:49,680
Speaker 1: to say when you have to say it. There is

812
00:52:49,680 --> 00:52:52,640
Speaker 1: no principle of fair play, There is no approach of

813
00:52:52,680 --> 00:52:55,479
Speaker 1: good faith. It is all just how do we win

814
00:52:55,920 --> 00:52:58,399
Speaker 1: and make the other side lose so then we can

815
00:52:58,440 --> 00:53:02,520
Speaker 1: make them do whatever we want. No rules, no constitutional

816
00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:05,400
Speaker 1: protections for them. Whatever we say the law is, that

817
00:53:05,560 --> 00:53:09,040
Speaker 1: is what it shall be. That's Nancy Pelosi's Democrat Party

818
00:53:09,080 --> 00:53:13,600
Speaker 1: for you. Of course, the New York Times has to

819
00:53:13,680 --> 00:53:20,520
Speaker 1: attack the single biggest policy maneuver of the Trump administration

820
00:53:20,560 --> 00:53:23,960
Speaker 1: so far, which is the tax cut, and they're trying

821
00:53:23,960 --> 00:53:27,399
Speaker 1: to help. Now there's a difficulty that Democrats face going

822
00:53:27,400 --> 00:53:31,640
Speaker 1: into this reelection. By the way, Mayor Pete Boodha Judge

823
00:53:32,640 --> 00:53:36,040
Speaker 1: is now leading substantially in Iowa. My understanding is he

824
00:53:36,120 --> 00:53:39,359
Speaker 1: has a huge ground game set up in Iowa, more

825
00:53:39,360 --> 00:53:42,040
Speaker 1: than anybody else, and it makes some sense he's from

826
00:53:42,080 --> 00:53:48,120
Speaker 1: neighboring Indiana. He is somebody who appeals to Midwesterners because

827
00:53:48,120 --> 00:53:53,000
Speaker 1: he's from the Midwest. And if he can win in Iowa,

828
00:53:53,200 --> 00:53:57,120
Speaker 1: then the storyline becomes, here's this young guy who's got

829
00:53:57,160 --> 00:54:00,600
Speaker 1: an impressive resume and he's not old like Biden. And

830
00:54:00,920 --> 00:54:03,640
Speaker 1: here's this young guy who if he's a front runner

831
00:54:03,680 --> 00:54:05,520
Speaker 1: for our if he wins Iowa, maybe he should be

832
00:54:05,560 --> 00:54:09,239
Speaker 1: the frontrunner overall, and you might have this mash a

833
00:54:09,360 --> 00:54:13,520
Speaker 1: massive shift in support that would result afterwards. Right that

834
00:54:13,520 --> 00:54:17,200
Speaker 1: that's his path to, if not outright victory in the primary,

835
00:54:17,239 --> 00:54:22,680
Speaker 1: eventually certainly being a very powerful vice presidential candidate, because remember,

836
00:54:22,680 --> 00:54:24,480
Speaker 1: Democrats have to there are certain states that this is

837
00:54:24,520 --> 00:54:27,240
Speaker 1: all going to come down to, in places like Michigan

838
00:54:27,239 --> 00:54:30,799
Speaker 1: and Wisconsin and Iowa. Those are places that Democrats need

839
00:54:30,880 --> 00:54:32,560
Speaker 1: help if they're going to try to defeat Trump in

840
00:54:32,600 --> 00:54:34,719
Speaker 1: the election. Assuming that Trump is allowed to get to

841
00:54:34,760 --> 00:54:42,320
Speaker 1: the election before without being removed by these Democrat partisans hyperpartisans,

842
00:54:42,360 --> 00:54:46,680
Speaker 1: perhaps I should say, but yeah, mayor Pete, who knew

843
00:54:47,560 --> 00:54:51,600
Speaker 1: apparently the Beto approach of being the most woke woke

844
00:54:51,840 --> 00:55:00,840
Speaker 1: person ever didn't work, and may repeats path of relative moderation. Hey,

845
00:55:01,400 --> 00:55:04,640
Speaker 1: I'm gonna stop lecturing people about their Christian faith when

846
00:55:04,760 --> 00:55:07,880
Speaker 1: it seems that his grasp may or Pete's grasp of

847
00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:12,319
Speaker 1: the Gospel is tenuous. But he's gonna stop doing that

848
00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:14,920
Speaker 1: and just start to sound a little more like he

849
00:55:15,600 --> 00:55:18,080
Speaker 1: sounds like he might be more reasol. His policies are not.

850
00:55:18,080 --> 00:55:20,960
Speaker 1: But he's a left wing guy. Medicare for all. I mean,

851
00:55:20,960 --> 00:55:25,879
Speaker 1: he's a left wing candidate. But he's got some substantial

852
00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:30,439
Speaker 1: support that seems to be building, particularly in Iowa. I'm

853
00:55:30,440 --> 00:55:32,920
Speaker 1: expecting somebody other than Biden is going to win that primary.

854
00:55:32,960 --> 00:55:35,800
Speaker 1: So we got to start thinking of who that's gonna be. Hello,

855
00:55:36,960 --> 00:55:40,719
Speaker 1: we'll talk about her later. Oh, she's still thinking about it.

856
00:55:40,920 --> 00:55:44,800
Speaker 1: You know, she is still thinking about it. I'm thinking

857
00:55:44,840 --> 00:55:50,840
Speaker 1: about you, America. Does it sound like Hillary Clinton? No?

858
00:55:51,320 --> 00:55:55,520
Speaker 1: But did you know who I was talking about? Yes? So,

859
00:55:56,880 --> 00:56:00,720
Speaker 1: But back to the necessity among those in the media

860
00:56:00,800 --> 00:56:05,680
Speaker 1: to come up with an alternate view of the economic situation.

861
00:56:05,800 --> 00:56:11,160
Speaker 1: Right now, they're churning out this machinery of Democrats support

862
00:56:11,320 --> 00:56:14,400
Speaker 1: from the various newsrooms, the various major media outlets in

863
00:56:14,400 --> 00:56:19,240
Speaker 1: the country, to say that the tax cuts didn't work,

864
00:56:19,280 --> 00:56:21,360
Speaker 1: really they didn't work the way they were supposed to,

865
00:56:22,280 --> 00:56:24,640
Speaker 1: and it really was just a giveaway to the rich,

866
00:56:24,719 --> 00:56:28,040
Speaker 1: and the usual class warfare stuff all has to come

867
00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:37,040
Speaker 1: out now, the usual Marxist tinged Marxist sounding rhetoric about

868
00:56:37,160 --> 00:56:39,319
Speaker 1: giveaways for the rich and the Republicans of the Party

869
00:56:39,360 --> 00:56:41,640
Speaker 1: of fat Cats. They've got all these liberal billionaires running

870
00:56:41,640 --> 00:56:44,440
Speaker 1: around Silicon Valley run by liberals, Hollywood run by liberals,

871
00:56:44,520 --> 00:56:49,320
Speaker 1: Wall Street run by liberals, but it's always the billionaire

872
00:56:49,400 --> 00:56:52,400
Speaker 1: fat cats that are Republican that get all this attention,

873
00:56:52,440 --> 00:56:55,399
Speaker 1: and people want to throw under the bus in one

874
00:56:55,400 --> 00:56:57,279
Speaker 1: way or another. So what we have now is the

875
00:56:57,320 --> 00:57:03,080
Speaker 1: New York Times writing this piece about FedEx. They use

876
00:57:03,200 --> 00:57:10,840
Speaker 1: FedEx as a prime example of exactly how this didn't work,

877
00:57:12,600 --> 00:57:17,040
Speaker 1: of how its tax bill, how FedEx cut its tax

878
00:57:17,120 --> 00:57:21,960
Speaker 1: bill to zero. Now keep in mind that GE very

879
00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:25,040
Speaker 1: famously went for a while and paid no federal income tax.

880
00:57:25,080 --> 00:57:31,200
Speaker 1: But GE wasn't vilified for doing that because became a

881
00:57:31,280 --> 00:57:33,919
Speaker 1: left wing company with very close ties, I believe under

882
00:57:33,960 --> 00:57:39,600
Speaker 1: Immolt to President Obama. So GE was left and essentially

883
00:57:39,640 --> 00:57:44,680
Speaker 1: had become largely a financial services company that happened to

884
00:57:44,720 --> 00:57:47,640
Speaker 1: also make some stuff and have engineering and create lightbulbs

885
00:57:47,640 --> 00:57:50,600
Speaker 1: and machinery and other things. But GE capital became a

886
00:57:50,680 --> 00:57:52,800
Speaker 1: huge part of the business, which is why GE is

887
00:57:52,840 --> 00:57:57,280
Speaker 1: now just in shambles as a great American a great

888
00:57:57,280 --> 00:58:03,600
Speaker 1: American corporation. That's a story for another day. How FedEx

889
00:58:03,640 --> 00:58:06,560
Speaker 1: cut its tax bill to zero dollars, the company, like

890
00:58:06,640 --> 00:58:09,080
Speaker 1: much of corporate America, has not made good on its

891
00:58:09,120 --> 00:58:15,200
Speaker 1: promised investment surge from President Trump's twenty seventeen tax cut.

892
00:58:15,640 --> 00:58:19,120
Speaker 1: Now there's a reason that they're running with this story.

893
00:58:19,160 --> 00:58:24,640
Speaker 1: They're using this as the pointy end of the spear,

894
00:58:24,720 --> 00:58:27,720
Speaker 1: the thin end of the wedge for the narrative. The

895
00:58:27,720 --> 00:58:30,760
Speaker 1: Democrats will need this primary that this economy right now

896
00:58:30,800 --> 00:58:36,400
Speaker 1: that we are in that is low inflation, low unemployment,

897
00:58:37,120 --> 00:58:40,800
Speaker 1: super high stock market, lots of economic growth. I mean

898
00:58:41,120 --> 00:58:45,120
Speaker 1: that this is bad somehow there or not what it

899
00:58:45,160 --> 00:58:47,560
Speaker 1: should be. If only you put Democrats in charge, If

900
00:58:47,600 --> 00:58:51,080
Speaker 1: you just hand it over one fifth of the economy

901
00:58:51,480 --> 00:58:55,360
Speaker 1: entirely to the Democrats central planners, to the socialists who

902
00:58:55,400 --> 00:58:58,280
Speaker 1: now run the Democrat Party, if you will just be

903
00:58:58,400 --> 00:59:02,680
Speaker 1: willing to do that, then we would all have an

904
00:59:02,760 --> 00:59:05,760
Speaker 1: end to economic anxiety. Then we wouldn't have to worry

905
00:59:05,800 --> 00:59:08,880
Speaker 1: about going bankrupt from health concerns. We'd all have better,

906
00:59:08,960 --> 00:59:11,560
Speaker 1: we'd all have good housing and good jobs and goodness

907
00:59:11,560 --> 00:59:14,160
Speaker 1: and good that. The more they talk about this, the

908
00:59:14,160 --> 00:59:18,160
Speaker 1: more it reminds me of how in the Soviet Constitution,

909
00:59:18,240 --> 00:59:21,360
Speaker 1: I mean this, in the Constitution of the Soviet Union,

910
00:59:22,240 --> 00:59:26,920
Speaker 1: there were very explicit promises made about everyone having a job,

911
00:59:27,200 --> 00:59:30,440
Speaker 1: everyone having food, everyone having clothing and a place to live,

912
00:59:30,520 --> 00:59:34,040
Speaker 1: and even I believe, two weeks of paid vacation every year.

913
00:59:34,040 --> 00:59:35,720
Speaker 1: I mean, the Soviet Constitution was like, it's going to

914
00:59:35,800 --> 00:59:39,600
Speaker 1: be great. Everyone's gonna have everything they need. That was

915
00:59:39,640 --> 00:59:42,320
Speaker 1: the promise. Oh, that's right, what is it? The bring

916
00:59:42,400 --> 00:59:44,680
Speaker 1: us back here to my friend, Attorney General bar the

917
00:59:44,760 --> 00:59:48,720
Speaker 1: deification of the state, the state and place of God.

918
00:59:49,360 --> 00:59:51,400
Speaker 1: That's right. The Soviet Union is going to give you everything.

919
00:59:52,320 --> 00:59:54,880
Speaker 1: It's a very large country, very rich and natural resources.

920
00:59:54,920 --> 00:59:57,600
Speaker 1: Everyone's gonna work for the common good. How would this

921
00:59:57,720 --> 01:00:01,440
Speaker 1: not work, they were saying, And we know not only

922
01:00:01,560 --> 01:00:06,960
Speaker 1: did not work, but it led to tremendous evils and

923
01:00:07,040 --> 01:00:13,280
Speaker 1: misery and slavery and despair, unimaginable levels of violence and

924
01:00:13,320 --> 01:00:18,240
Speaker 1: oppression and torture and totalitarianism. But it was all supposed

925
01:00:18,280 --> 01:00:21,280
Speaker 1: to be given everybody everything they need. Now, we are

926
01:00:21,280 --> 01:00:23,440
Speaker 1: not the Soviet Union, and I'm not pretending we are.

927
01:00:23,480 --> 01:00:26,800
Speaker 1: But when you start hearing people promise that everything will

928
01:00:26,840 --> 01:00:29,400
Speaker 1: be provided for you and you have to do nothing

929
01:00:29,440 --> 01:00:31,560
Speaker 1: in response. All you through is vote for them or

930
01:00:31,600 --> 01:00:35,960
Speaker 1: put them in power, you should be very very skeptical.

931
01:00:36,400 --> 01:00:39,160
Speaker 1: And I would argue you should be very concerned really

932
01:00:39,160 --> 01:00:42,440
Speaker 1: that this is a sign that things are going to

933
01:00:42,520 --> 01:00:47,600
Speaker 1: go quite awry. But so they use FedEx and they say, see,

934
01:00:47,680 --> 01:00:52,720
Speaker 1: here's a company that isn't paying taxes the way that

935
01:00:52,840 --> 01:00:59,240
Speaker 1: it's supposed to. That FedEx is another one of these

936
01:01:00,080 --> 01:01:04,320
Speaker 1: corporations that promises to invest in American workers and all

937
01:01:04,320 --> 01:01:06,400
Speaker 1: this stuff, and they haven't done the way. They haven't

938
01:01:06,440 --> 01:01:09,200
Speaker 1: done things the way that we would want them to

939
01:01:10,560 --> 01:01:17,560
Speaker 1: if we were running those corporations as Democrat government officials. Right, Well,

940
01:01:17,600 --> 01:01:20,080
Speaker 1: it turns out FedEx isn't going to take this lying down.

941
01:01:21,120 --> 01:01:25,120
Speaker 1: They put out a statement and it was a doozy

942
01:01:25,880 --> 01:01:31,760
Speaker 1: from Frederick W. Smith, the chairman and CEO of FedEx Corporation.

943
01:01:32,240 --> 01:01:35,280
Speaker 1: Here's what he put out as an official statement quote.

944
01:01:36,160 --> 01:01:40,840
Speaker 1: The New York Times published a distorted and factually incorrect

945
01:01:40,920 --> 01:01:44,040
Speaker 1: story on the front page of the Sunday, November seventeenth

946
01:01:44,160 --> 01:01:48,160
Speaker 1: edition concerning FedEx and are billions of dollars of tax

947
01:01:48,160 --> 01:01:51,960
Speaker 1: payments and billions of dollars of investments in the US economy.

948
01:01:52,640 --> 01:01:56,200
Speaker 1: Pertinent to this outrageous distortion of the truth is the

949
01:01:56,240 --> 01:02:00,440
Speaker 1: fact that, unlike FedEx, the New York Times paid zero

950
01:02:00,680 --> 01:02:03,600
Speaker 1: federal income tax in twenty seventeen on earnings of one

951
01:02:03,680 --> 01:02:07,280
Speaker 1: hundred and eleven million dollars and only thirty million dollars

952
01:02:07,280 --> 01:02:12,040
Speaker 1: in twenty eighteen, eighteen percent of their pre tax book income.

953
01:02:13,000 --> 01:02:15,880
Speaker 1: Also in twenty eighteen, the New York Times cut their

954
01:02:15,880 --> 01:02:18,920
Speaker 1: capital investments nearly and a half to fifty seven million,

955
01:02:19,680 --> 01:02:23,800
Speaker 1: which equates to a rounding error when compared to the

956
01:02:24,040 --> 01:02:28,360
Speaker 1: six billion dollars of capital that FedEx invested in the

957
01:02:28,480 --> 01:02:34,480
Speaker 1: US economy during that same year. I hereby challenge A. G. Salzburger,

958
01:02:35,040 --> 01:02:38,440
Speaker 1: publisher of The New York Times and the Business section editor,

959
01:02:38,960 --> 01:02:43,360
Speaker 1: to a public debate in Washington, DC with me and

960
01:02:43,480 --> 01:02:48,200
Speaker 1: the FedEx corporate Vice president of tax. The focus of

961
01:02:48,200 --> 01:02:51,600
Speaker 1: the debate should be federal tax policy and the relative

962
01:02:51,680 --> 01:02:56,760
Speaker 1: societal benefits of business investments and the enormous intended benefits

963
01:02:56,760 --> 01:03:00,440
Speaker 1: to the United States economy, especially lower and middle class

964
01:03:00,480 --> 01:03:05,080
Speaker 1: wage earners. I look forward to hearing promptly from mister

965
01:03:05,160 --> 01:03:10,600
Speaker 1: Salzburger and scheduling this open event to bring further public

966
01:03:10,640 --> 01:03:17,280
Speaker 1: awareness of the facts related to these important issues. Wow,

967
01:03:18,800 --> 01:03:22,560
Speaker 1: first of all, I think it's a fantastic idea. Of course,

968
01:03:22,560 --> 01:03:24,840
Speaker 1: the New York Times Salsburg, I mean, Salisburger is not

969
01:03:24,960 --> 01:03:30,000
Speaker 1: an impressive guy. New York Times will never Not only

970
01:03:30,040 --> 01:03:34,120
Speaker 1: would The New York Times not send their publisher who

971
01:03:34,240 --> 01:03:38,880
Speaker 1: inherited the company, but side don't their publisher to do this.

972
01:03:39,960 --> 01:03:42,240
Speaker 1: They won't even send any of their experts, any of

973
01:03:42,240 --> 01:03:46,720
Speaker 1: their columnists, any of their editors for this debate. I

974
01:03:46,760 --> 01:03:49,840
Speaker 1: can almost guarantee it. I mean, I'm guessing I'm looking

975
01:03:49,880 --> 01:03:52,479
Speaker 1: into the future here, but you'll see they won't send anything.

976
01:03:52,920 --> 01:03:56,120
Speaker 1: Would this would be quite worthwhile for the public to see,

977
01:03:56,160 --> 01:03:58,400
Speaker 1: wouldn't it If The New York Times is going to

978
01:03:58,480 --> 01:04:03,800
Speaker 1: call out FedEx on its front page for profiting and

979
01:04:03,800 --> 01:04:05,800
Speaker 1: effectively lying about what it would do so that it

980
01:04:05,800 --> 01:04:07,440
Speaker 1: would get the tax cuts, that it would do the

981
01:04:07,480 --> 01:04:10,360
Speaker 1: stock buybacks to push up the stock price to help

982
01:04:10,360 --> 01:04:12,640
Speaker 1: the executives and help the shareholders and not help the

983
01:04:12,680 --> 01:04:16,480
Speaker 1: common man, and not put the investments in and class warfare. Baby,

984
01:04:16,480 --> 01:04:19,400
Speaker 1: this is how they do it. If The New York

985
01:04:19,400 --> 01:04:21,920
Speaker 1: Times is going to write that piece on its front page,

986
01:04:22,840 --> 01:04:26,120
Speaker 1: then why shouldn't The New York Times be willing to

987
01:04:27,040 --> 01:04:29,280
Speaker 1: meet the chairman of FedEx. I mean, this is not

988
01:04:29,400 --> 01:04:32,360
Speaker 1: some random internet roll. The chairman of FedEx and CEO

989
01:04:33,040 --> 01:04:35,000
Speaker 1: to a public debate on what's really gone on here.

990
01:04:36,640 --> 01:04:40,480
Speaker 1: I'll tell you why they are scared, and they are

991
01:04:40,480 --> 01:04:44,000
Speaker 1: a right to be scared, because he would mop the

992
01:04:44,080 --> 01:04:47,440
Speaker 1: floor with them. The New York Times wouldn't even exist

993
01:04:47,480 --> 01:04:52,120
Speaker 1: if it was not for ideologically driven left wing billionaire

994
01:04:52,360 --> 01:04:57,480
Speaker 1: like Carlos, Billionaires like Carlo Slim and other very connected individuals.

995
01:04:58,400 --> 01:05:01,040
Speaker 1: The New York Times was going out of business, my friends.

996
01:05:02,640 --> 01:05:05,440
Speaker 1: And the New York Times has a tremendous legacy advantage

997
01:05:05,480 --> 01:05:07,640
Speaker 1: because it's been around for long enough that it's brand

998
01:05:07,680 --> 01:05:09,480
Speaker 1: alone is worth a lot of money. But the people

999
01:05:09,560 --> 01:05:12,880
Speaker 1: running it today are benefiting for what was done decades

1000
01:05:12,880 --> 01:05:19,080
Speaker 1: and decades before them. FedEx, on the other hand, shows

1001
01:05:19,160 --> 01:05:22,840
Speaker 1: us not just what the difference is between a company

1002
01:05:22,880 --> 01:05:25,240
Speaker 1: that is employing a lot of people, and that is

1003
01:05:25,280 --> 01:05:28,160
Speaker 1: operating as a free market entity. That's not essentially an

1004
01:05:28,280 --> 01:05:30,520
Speaker 1: artistic endeavor. The New York Times is for a lot

1005
01:05:30,560 --> 01:05:32,840
Speaker 1: of liberals a largely artistic endeavor. They support it the

1006
01:05:32,840 --> 01:05:37,600
Speaker 1: way you support your local philharmonic. FedEx has to deliver

1007
01:05:38,280 --> 01:05:43,200
Speaker 1: in every sense. And so here is a company that

1008
01:05:43,360 --> 01:05:47,480
Speaker 1: the left has always been a little bit uncomfortable with,

1009
01:05:47,640 --> 01:05:51,800
Speaker 1: doesn't really like because FedEx took what had been for

1010
01:05:51,840 --> 01:05:54,160
Speaker 1: a long time a government function. In fact, one of

1011
01:05:54,200 --> 01:05:58,400
Speaker 1: the explanations for why government needs certain power, certain authority,

1012
01:05:58,400 --> 01:06:00,960
Speaker 1: certain funding. Oh we need we need roads, we needed

1013
01:06:00,960 --> 01:06:05,240
Speaker 1: a post office. Well, let me ask you if you

1014
01:06:05,280 --> 01:06:10,360
Speaker 1: were going to send your aunt Ethel her brooch from

1015
01:06:11,000 --> 01:06:14,720
Speaker 1: the Revolutionary War era, and you have to get it

1016
01:06:14,760 --> 01:06:18,160
Speaker 1: there overnight before she goes and gives her big speech

1017
01:06:18,160 --> 01:06:20,800
Speaker 1: to the Rotary Club. Are you going to take aunt

1018
01:06:20,840 --> 01:06:23,280
Speaker 1: Ethel's brooch to the post office? Are you going to

1019
01:06:23,280 --> 01:06:26,600
Speaker 1: take it to Federal Express? I think we all know

1020
01:06:26,640 --> 01:06:30,080
Speaker 1: the answer. Federal Express. I'm not saying it's perfect, but

1021
01:06:30,720 --> 01:06:35,320
Speaker 1: it's pretty amazing what it's able to do. It's stunning

1022
01:06:35,320 --> 01:06:37,640
Speaker 1: that you can pick the time of delivery, and that

1023
01:06:38,080 --> 01:06:39,920
Speaker 1: I believe I actually looked at this once because I

1024
01:06:40,000 --> 01:06:42,640
Speaker 1: FedEx something to myself that was very important, valuable, and

1025
01:06:42,640 --> 01:06:44,800
Speaker 1: then I got a little worried. I think they have

1026
01:06:45,040 --> 01:06:51,880
Speaker 1: an either ninety seven or ninety nine percent successful delivery rate,

1027
01:06:52,440 --> 01:06:55,000
Speaker 1: meaning not that they lose things, meaning that they get

1028
01:06:55,040 --> 01:06:56,840
Speaker 1: it there when they say they're going to get it there.

1029
01:06:56,840 --> 01:06:58,800
Speaker 1: I think it's ninety seven or ninety nine percent of

1030
01:06:58,840 --> 01:07:04,439
Speaker 1: the time. That's pretty impressive considering what they do. And

1031
01:07:05,320 --> 01:07:07,520
Speaker 1: this is where the free market has shown you that

1032
01:07:07,560 --> 01:07:09,440
Speaker 1: it can do something that the government had been the

1033
01:07:09,480 --> 01:07:11,480
Speaker 1: sole provider of for a long time, and in fact

1034
01:07:11,480 --> 01:07:13,920
Speaker 1: do it much better than the government can, and create

1035
01:07:14,000 --> 01:07:17,040
Speaker 1: jobs in the process and productivity and give a service.

1036
01:07:17,960 --> 01:07:20,360
Speaker 1: So they so FedEx is a perfect target for them

1037
01:07:20,400 --> 01:07:24,920
Speaker 1: because they really don't like it, AH privatizing the postal

1038
01:07:24,960 --> 01:07:28,760
Speaker 1: service essentially, that's or giving a private alternative the postal service.

1039
01:07:30,840 --> 01:07:33,360
Speaker 1: And they say that they don't they haven't hired up,

1040
01:07:33,360 --> 01:07:36,440
Speaker 1: they haven't spent enough money the way they said they would. Well,

1041
01:07:36,520 --> 01:07:40,480
Speaker 1: let's gives a private company and it's now paying less

1042
01:07:40,480 --> 01:07:43,240
Speaker 1: than taxes. Keep in mind, corporations don't pay taxes. People

1043
01:07:43,320 --> 01:07:46,479
Speaker 1: pay taxes. So all that FedEx having a lower tax

1044
01:07:46,560 --> 01:07:49,080
Speaker 1: rate means that there's less money going to the government

1045
01:07:49,080 --> 01:07:51,479
Speaker 1: from FedEx, which means FedEx has more money to pay

1046
01:07:51,600 --> 01:07:55,080
Speaker 1: people and to invest in things than it would have otherwise.

1047
01:07:55,200 --> 01:07:57,280
Speaker 1: All those people that is paying, by the way, are

1048
01:07:57,320 --> 01:08:01,160
Speaker 1: paying taxes. So you tax the company, and then the

1049
01:08:01,200 --> 01:08:03,840
Speaker 1: people that get paid by the company they pay taxes

1050
01:08:03,880 --> 01:08:07,520
Speaker 1: to the government too. This is also where we get

1051
01:08:07,560 --> 01:08:13,000
Speaker 1: to the onerous tax burden. The Democrats not only defend

1052
01:08:13,040 --> 01:08:15,760
Speaker 1: today but want to expand dramatically because they think they'll

1053
01:08:15,760 --> 01:08:19,840
Speaker 1: be better stewards of the money that you have that

1054
01:08:19,920 --> 01:08:22,679
Speaker 1: you make, then you will be They know more than

1055
01:08:22,720 --> 01:08:27,040
Speaker 1: you do. I would love to see this debate between

1056
01:08:27,680 --> 01:08:30,639
Speaker 1: the chairman of FedEx and anybody from the New York Times,

1057
01:08:31,560 --> 01:08:33,200
Speaker 1: because what it would show is is that once again

1058
01:08:33,240 --> 01:08:36,760
Speaker 1: the central planners don't know what they're talking about, are

1059
01:08:36,840 --> 01:08:39,960
Speaker 1: rooted in faulty assumptions, and people that believe in and

1060
01:08:40,000 --> 01:08:44,280
Speaker 1: rely on free markets are the ones who are actually

1061
01:08:44,280 --> 01:08:46,360
Speaker 1: pushing us forward and doing good things for this country

1062
01:08:46,360 --> 01:08:48,720
Speaker 1: that everybody benefits from. And saying that the conditions on

1063
01:08:48,720 --> 01:08:51,720
Speaker 1: our board, the mass expansions attention camps qualifies as a

1064
01:08:51,760 --> 01:08:55,680
Speaker 1: concentration camp. Everybody thought it was nuts right, until we

1065
01:08:55,720 --> 01:08:58,280
Speaker 1: realize this week that Stephen Miller is a no joke,

1066
01:08:58,560 --> 01:09:04,040
Speaker 1: die hard whiten rationalist. This is what our policy has become,

1067
01:09:04,360 --> 01:09:06,760
Speaker 1: and in order for us to rectify and to begin

1068
01:09:06,840 --> 01:09:09,040
Speaker 1: to heal as a country, he has got to go.

1069
01:09:09,200 --> 01:09:12,200
Speaker 1: I feel duty bound to note that that Miller's defenders.

1070
01:09:12,200 --> 01:09:15,360
Speaker 1: I think Miller himself would say, I'm Jewish myself. I

1071
01:09:15,400 --> 01:09:18,720
Speaker 1: come from a Jewish family, and it's offensive for you

1072
01:09:18,800 --> 01:09:23,840
Speaker 1: to invoke that word, particularly as as regards someone who

1073
01:09:23,880 --> 01:09:26,200
Speaker 1: is Jewish. Well, I'm sure that's also the way in

1074
01:09:26,200 --> 01:09:30,360
Speaker 1: which he's weaponized his identity, right, Like you know, they say,

1075
01:09:30,680 --> 01:09:35,479
Speaker 1: and there's this, there's the color of your skin and

1076
01:09:35,520 --> 01:09:37,720
Speaker 1: the and the identity you are born with does not

1077
01:09:37,840 --> 01:09:43,400
Speaker 1: absolve you of moral wrong. The perst brick looking person

1078
01:09:44,000 --> 01:09:48,439
Speaker 1: to advance horrifically in humane immigration policy would be someone

1079
01:09:48,439 --> 01:09:50,880
Speaker 1: that looks like me, or someone that looks like someone

1080
01:09:50,880 --> 01:09:54,000
Speaker 1: in this audience, right, because that's what provides the cover

1081
01:09:54,720 --> 01:09:59,760
Speaker 1: for these incredibly damaging and dangerous policies. So I'm not

1082
01:09:59,840 --> 01:10:02,519
Speaker 1: here to weaponize my identity, and I don't think any

1083
01:10:02,560 --> 01:10:05,799
Speaker 1: public servant should weaponize their identity in order to advance

1084
01:10:05,840 --> 01:10:09,080
Speaker 1: white nationalist ideas period punto, I don't care who you are,

1085
01:10:09,840 --> 01:10:12,400
Speaker 1: that's who would be in charge if the Democrats had

1086
01:10:12,439 --> 01:10:15,360
Speaker 1: their way. But the people like Ocazio Cortez, people that

1087
01:10:15,400 --> 01:10:18,880
Speaker 1: share the thoughts of Okazio Cortez and Chris Hayes and MSNBC,

1088
01:10:19,120 --> 01:10:21,519
Speaker 1: just just remember that I just played. There's so much

1089
01:10:21,640 --> 01:10:23,840
Speaker 1: there's so much crazy and wrong and what she said

1090
01:10:23,880 --> 01:10:25,600
Speaker 1: that I don't even have time for it today. But

1091
01:10:25,680 --> 01:10:28,280
Speaker 1: just remember the people that want to tell FedEx how

1092
01:10:28,280 --> 01:10:31,439
Speaker 1: to run its business. It's the Ocazio Corteses of the

1093
01:10:31,439 --> 01:10:34,040
Speaker 1: Democratic Party, as if they have any idea team. I

1094
01:10:34,200 --> 01:10:41,519
Speaker 1: have not forgotten anything from the fight over Justice Kabanaw's nomination.

1095
01:10:41,800 --> 01:10:47,000
Speaker 1: It's seared into my brain. It was one of the

1096
01:10:47,080 --> 01:10:51,360
Speaker 1: most import for me, at least for my politics today,

1097
01:10:51,400 --> 01:10:55,000
Speaker 1: one of the most important periods, if of post nine

1098
01:10:55,040 --> 01:10:58,400
Speaker 1: to eleven American history, that I could point to to

1099
01:10:58,439 --> 01:11:00,720
Speaker 1: tell us why things are there, way are these days

1100
01:11:00,760 --> 01:11:04,200
Speaker 1: and where it's all going. And I particularly remember the

1101
01:11:04,240 --> 01:11:08,960
Speaker 1: media's role on all of this. I remember we were

1102
01:11:09,000 --> 01:11:12,439
Speaker 1: living in an alternate universe where the word credible all

1103
01:11:12,439 --> 01:11:17,040
Speaker 1: of a sudden meant the opposite of credible, where evidence

1104
01:11:17,320 --> 01:11:21,200
Speaker 1: was merely an accusation without any foundation or underpinning of

1105
01:11:21,280 --> 01:11:26,240
Speaker 1: fact to it whatsoever. And people were willing in the

1106
01:11:26,320 --> 01:11:30,240
Speaker 1: media to pretend to be or perhaps to just embrace

1107
01:11:30,400 --> 01:11:36,840
Speaker 1: the reality of being so stupid that it was almost

1108
01:11:38,400 --> 01:11:41,360
Speaker 1: almost unimaginable. I mean, they were willing to say, no, no,

1109
01:11:41,520 --> 01:11:45,840
Speaker 1: we in the mainstream media are too dumb to understand

1110
01:11:45,880 --> 01:11:49,320
Speaker 1: what's going on here, because then we can just move

1111
01:11:49,439 --> 01:11:53,759
Speaker 1: past the obviousness of what's really going on with particularly

1112
01:11:53,840 --> 01:11:58,920
Speaker 1: Christine Blasi Ford, doctor Ford. As we were all told

1113
01:11:58,920 --> 01:12:05,400
Speaker 1: we had to refer to Christine Blasi Ford. They would say,

1114
01:12:05,800 --> 01:12:11,000
Speaker 1: and I remember this, why would she lie? A This

1115
01:12:11,080 --> 01:12:14,920
Speaker 1: was a refrain, This was a talking point. Why would

1116
01:12:15,040 --> 01:12:18,800
Speaker 1: she lie? And people like me and you go back

1117
01:12:18,800 --> 01:12:20,720
Speaker 1: and listen to the shows from the summer of a

1118
01:12:20,840 --> 01:12:24,920
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen if you want, and it'll be quite clear.

1119
01:12:25,120 --> 01:12:27,040
Speaker 1: Why would she lie? Because she's going to be a

1120
01:12:27,080 --> 01:12:32,520
Speaker 1: hero to the left, because she deeply, personally, ideologically believes

1121
01:12:32,720 --> 01:12:36,240
Speaker 1: in abortion and the need to keep that legal for

1122
01:12:36,320 --> 01:12:39,439
Speaker 1: all nine months of her pregnancy in all fifty states.

1123
01:12:40,200 --> 01:12:43,679
Speaker 1: She got the opportunity to be a hero to left

1124
01:12:43,680 --> 01:12:48,679
Speaker 1: wing women, to boomer feminists for all eternity, to get book,

1125
01:12:48,720 --> 01:12:52,719
Speaker 1: deals and speeches, and why would she lie? She had

1126
01:12:52,760 --> 01:12:56,880
Speaker 1: every incentive to lie under the circumstances of who she

1127
01:12:57,120 --> 01:13:00,880
Speaker 1: was and what was going on then, and the media

1128
01:13:01,000 --> 01:13:05,960
Speaker 1: pretended like they couldn't figure that out, like we wouldn't

1129
01:13:05,960 --> 01:13:09,479
Speaker 1: all know right away. We didn't know at the time

1130
01:13:09,600 --> 01:13:12,680
Speaker 1: that she would be a share a heroine part of me,

1131
01:13:12,760 --> 01:13:17,160
Speaker 1: not a hero heroin to the left, buck, how did

1132
01:13:17,200 --> 01:13:20,080
Speaker 1: you know? Everybody knew, but the media was all over.

1133
01:13:20,200 --> 01:13:25,000
Speaker 1: She has no reason to lie, That's what they're all saying. Again,

1134
01:13:25,920 --> 01:13:29,360
Speaker 1: Just like when Pelosi talks this about impeachment proceeding, they

1135
01:13:29,400 --> 01:13:31,680
Speaker 1: speak to us as though they really believe we are

1136
01:13:31,720 --> 01:13:35,160
Speaker 1: all idiots. And I don't know if they're so dumb

1137
01:13:35,240 --> 01:13:41,720
Speaker 1: they believe that, or I just I don't know what

1138
01:13:41,720 --> 01:13:45,559
Speaker 1: we're how we're supposed to react. I hope the American

1139
01:13:45,560 --> 01:13:47,839
Speaker 1: people are not so stupid as to listen to Nancy Pelosi,

1140
01:13:47,920 --> 01:13:52,719
Speaker 1: But clearly I might give us too much credit. Here's

1141
01:13:52,760 --> 01:14:00,599
Speaker 1: doctor Christine blasi Ford accepting the ACLUS Current Age Award

1142
01:14:00,720 --> 01:14:07,120
Speaker 1: play twenty one. It's really great when women step up

1143
01:14:07,200 --> 01:14:15,800
Speaker 1: for other women, and it's really great when men show

1144
01:14:15,880 --> 01:14:24,160
Speaker 1: up for women, cheering celebrating her And remember, they're not

1145
01:14:24,200 --> 01:14:28,240
Speaker 1: just celebrating her, They're celebrating her specifically because she was

1146
01:14:28,400 --> 01:14:34,479
Speaker 1: part of the ugliest smear campaign I have ever seen

1147
01:14:34,600 --> 01:14:39,720
Speaker 1: in American politics, the nastiest, most underhanded, most dishonest thing

1148
01:14:40,200 --> 01:14:42,200
Speaker 1: I have ever seen in my adult life go on

1149
01:14:42,240 --> 01:14:45,559
Speaker 1: in American politics. It was It still makes me want

1150
01:14:45,600 --> 01:14:53,640
Speaker 1: to throw up to this day, accusing someone of attempted

1151
01:14:53,680 --> 01:14:56,080
Speaker 1: really what was attempted rape? In her telling of the

1152
01:14:56,200 --> 01:15:01,240
Speaker 1: story in front of tens of millions of Americans with

1153
01:15:01,439 --> 01:15:03,960
Speaker 1: his wife and children watching, all of his friends, all

1154
01:15:03,960 --> 01:15:06,240
Speaker 1: of his colleagues, everybody he knew, and it was all

1155
01:15:06,280 --> 01:15:11,200
Speaker 1: a lie. It was all a lie. How could you

1156
01:15:11,280 --> 01:15:15,559
Speaker 1: do that to somebody bearing false witness in that way?

1157
01:15:16,120 --> 01:15:19,719
Speaker 1: I don't know how she sleeps at night, except maybe

1158
01:15:19,720 --> 01:15:22,600
Speaker 1: she's so looney that she believes what she said. That

1159
01:15:22,720 --> 01:15:25,479
Speaker 1: is possible. I've always thought that was possible. So in

1160
01:15:25,479 --> 01:15:30,080
Speaker 1: that sense, she wasn't knowingly lying, but the story none

1161
01:15:30,080 --> 01:15:34,080
Speaker 1: the less was a lie. But they are celebrating her

1162
01:15:34,120 --> 01:15:40,880
Speaker 1: specifically for that, for the ritualized, televised torture and humiliation

1163
01:15:41,040 --> 01:15:47,240
Speaker 1: session of a very good, very decent, and very impressive man.

1164
01:15:48,760 --> 01:15:51,120
Speaker 1: But there is and has been for a long time.

1165
01:15:51,360 --> 01:15:55,840
Speaker 1: A bitterness and a vitriol that is at the heart

1166
01:15:56,400 --> 01:16:01,880
Speaker 1: of the leftist feminist movement. There is a kind of

1167
01:16:02,000 --> 01:16:05,479
Speaker 1: man hatred that emanates from it. That's there's no question

1168
01:16:05,560 --> 01:16:10,559
Speaker 1: about it. A desire to bring men who are viewed

1169
01:16:10,600 --> 01:16:20,080
Speaker 1: as the white heterosexual, normative, white heterosexual patriarchal figures members

1170
01:16:20,120 --> 01:16:23,400
Speaker 1: of the patriarchy, to bring them low, to destroy them,

1171
01:16:23,479 --> 01:16:27,360
Speaker 1: to humiliate and degrade them. They deserve it. You see

1172
01:16:29,240 --> 01:16:33,000
Speaker 1: Christine Blasi Forward getting awards from people now who could

1173
01:16:33,040 --> 01:16:37,880
Speaker 1: have seen this coming, anybody who wasn't an idiot. I

1174
01:16:37,920 --> 01:16:40,720
Speaker 1: saw it coming, You saw it coming. None of this

1175
01:16:40,840 --> 01:16:44,479
Speaker 1: is a surprise, my friends, not in the least, but

1176
01:16:44,520 --> 01:16:48,640
Speaker 1: the media was willing to pretend that it would be.

1177
01:16:49,680 --> 01:16:52,519
Speaker 1: And that tells you so much about who they are

1178
01:16:52,640 --> 01:16:56,760
Speaker 1: and what they really stand for. Appalling stuff. I was

1179
01:16:56,760 --> 01:17:04,120
Speaker 1: speaking of feminism. Charlie's Angels has had a remake now,

1180
01:17:04,720 --> 01:17:10,519
Speaker 1: a remake that is staff with actresses, and one of

1181
01:17:10,560 --> 01:17:12,639
Speaker 1: them is from the Twilight movie. And then I don't

1182
01:17:12,640 --> 01:17:14,640
Speaker 1: know what the which I don't think I saw that.

1183
01:17:14,760 --> 01:17:17,040
Speaker 1: Maybe I saw the first one, and the others I

1184
01:17:17,120 --> 01:17:19,920
Speaker 1: have not. The others, I don't know who they are,

1185
01:17:21,439 --> 01:17:24,439
Speaker 1: but they Elizabeth Banks remade this movie. She's a pretty

1186
01:17:24,479 --> 01:17:27,439
Speaker 1: well known actress for the the a cappella movies that

1187
01:17:27,520 --> 01:17:33,080
Speaker 1: she made, Pitch Perfect and Show. She made those movies.

1188
01:17:33,120 --> 01:17:35,280
Speaker 1: Those movies did very well. But then they try to

1189
01:17:35,280 --> 01:17:39,840
Speaker 1: do a remake of Charlie's Angels, which why even would

1190
01:17:39,880 --> 01:17:41,680
Speaker 1: think that that would be? You know, this is what

1191
01:17:41,760 --> 01:17:44,120
Speaker 1: we have to spend what one hundred million dollars on

1192
01:17:44,240 --> 01:17:47,360
Speaker 1: or fifty million dollars or whatever it is. And you

1193
01:17:47,439 --> 01:17:49,719
Speaker 1: just look at this and you look at the script,

1194
01:17:49,840 --> 01:17:53,679
Speaker 1: and that a feminist, a feminist twist on Charlie's Angels,

1195
01:17:53,680 --> 01:17:57,040
Speaker 1: which is really a show about or a show slash

1196
01:17:57,080 --> 01:18:00,519
Speaker 1: movie about very very beautiful women doing daring things. But

1197
01:18:00,680 --> 01:18:02,720
Speaker 1: really the fact that they're all very very beautiful is

1198
01:18:02,720 --> 01:18:05,400
Speaker 1: really important in this whole process. So there's an inherent

1199
01:18:06,000 --> 01:18:09,200
Speaker 1: objectification of women. You would think that would be as

1200
01:18:09,240 --> 01:18:12,160
Speaker 1: a result of this, and which is of course the

1201
01:18:12,240 --> 01:18:14,360
Speaker 1: norm in Hollywood. They pretend that it's not, but still,

1202
01:18:14,400 --> 01:18:18,000
Speaker 1: I mean, if you want, you know, beautiful women still

1203
01:18:18,000 --> 01:18:20,120
Speaker 1: sell tickets to things. I mean, beautiful women are still

1204
01:18:20,120 --> 01:18:22,160
Speaker 1: the reason a lot of people want to go see things.

1205
01:18:22,240 --> 01:18:25,680
Speaker 1: And we can say, oh, that's superficial, but there are

1206
01:18:25,760 --> 01:18:28,479
Speaker 1: some biological realities that we all still have to live with,

1207
01:18:28,560 --> 01:18:30,240
Speaker 1: at least for the time being, until they try to

1208
01:18:30,240 --> 01:18:34,559
Speaker 1: rewrite all the biological realities on the left. No person

1209
01:18:34,600 --> 01:18:36,519
Speaker 1: would really think that this was a good idea for

1210
01:18:36,560 --> 01:18:40,080
Speaker 1: a movie, right, I mean, this is just you hear

1211
01:18:40,120 --> 01:18:42,559
Speaker 1: about this and you say, oh, it's kind of like

1212
01:18:42,560 --> 01:18:44,920
Speaker 1: the feminist Ghostbusters that they made. Oh let's have a

1213
01:18:44,960 --> 01:18:47,519
Speaker 1: Ghostbusters but with all women, and it's sort of a

1214
01:18:47,640 --> 01:18:51,479
Speaker 1: girl a girl power take on Ghostbusters. It was the

1215
01:18:51,520 --> 01:18:54,519
Speaker 1: worst movie. I've watched about fifteen minutes of it. I mean,

1216
01:18:54,560 --> 01:18:55,720
Speaker 1: I think you could argue it might have been the

1217
01:18:55,760 --> 01:18:59,400
Speaker 1: worst movie ever made. That's a tough for its budget

1218
01:18:59,640 --> 01:19:02,040
Speaker 1: and expectations. You have to make that relative, right, I

1219
01:19:02,040 --> 01:19:05,600
Speaker 1: mean LEPrecon five, LEPrecon in the Hood was probably a

1220
01:19:05,720 --> 01:19:08,559
Speaker 1: worst movie. I did watch that movie, much to my

1221
01:19:09,400 --> 01:19:13,240
Speaker 1: everlasting shame, as well as LEPrecon in Space. There was

1222
01:19:13,240 --> 01:19:15,000
Speaker 1: a LEPrecon in Space movie. They made a lot of

1223
01:19:15,040 --> 01:19:18,400
Speaker 1: those LEPrecon movies. I'm the LEPrecon. I could still you know,

1224
01:19:18,400 --> 01:19:21,280
Speaker 1: I'm part Irish, so I could still do the I'm

1225
01:19:21,320 --> 01:19:25,679
Speaker 1: the Lepreca. I remember when Mike Myers did his whole

1226
01:19:25,720 --> 01:19:28,040
Speaker 1: thing in Wayne's World two with the flashlight in his face.

1227
01:19:28,080 --> 01:19:31,000
Speaker 1: He's like, I'm the Leprecai by the flashlight. It was

1228
01:19:31,080 --> 01:19:34,679
Speaker 1: kind of scary actually, because I'm a LEPrecon guy. Fun fact,

1229
01:19:34,760 --> 01:19:38,960
Speaker 1: that's actually Warwick Davis, who played the lead character in

1230
01:19:39,000 --> 01:19:43,040
Speaker 1: the movie Willow, which was really a cheap rip off

1231
01:19:43,120 --> 01:19:45,240
Speaker 1: of the Lord of the Rings trilogy, which I know

1232
01:19:45,240 --> 01:19:47,080
Speaker 1: people say, oh, Willow was its own book and stuff,

1233
01:19:47,080 --> 01:19:49,280
Speaker 1: but I mean, come on, it's kind of It's kind

1234
01:19:49,320 --> 01:19:51,240
Speaker 1: of like poor man's Lord of the Rings. But yeah,

1235
01:19:51,240 --> 01:19:54,040
Speaker 1: Warwick Davis was in that movie, and then he played

1236
01:19:54,080 --> 01:19:56,800
Speaker 1: the Leprecons later on, or played the LEPrecon I should

1237
01:19:56,800 --> 01:19:59,479
Speaker 1: say later on. But nobody really thinks that Charlie Danel

1238
01:19:59,479 --> 01:20:01,600
Speaker 1: is gonna be a good movie, right. I mean, you

1239
01:20:01,680 --> 01:20:03,280
Speaker 1: ask a normal person, just like you gotta, you know,

1240
01:20:03,280 --> 01:20:04,920
Speaker 1: you ask a normal person. Do you think that is

1241
01:20:04,920 --> 01:20:08,360
Speaker 1: gonna be? No? It made like eight million dollars domestically.

1242
01:20:08,400 --> 01:20:11,320
Speaker 1: It's bombing in China, it's bombing in the United States.

1243
01:20:11,360 --> 01:20:15,439
Speaker 1: A terrible movie. What do you think the director? And

1244
01:20:15,560 --> 01:20:20,000
Speaker 1: now the woke media journals out there are saying, is

1245
01:20:20,040 --> 01:20:24,679
Speaker 1: the reason for this tremendous flop that's going to cost

1246
01:20:24,680 --> 01:20:27,920
Speaker 1: a studio millions and millions and millions of dollars just

1247
01:20:28,200 --> 01:20:30,600
Speaker 1: up in smoke. What do you think the reason that

1248
01:20:30,640 --> 01:20:32,840
Speaker 1: it was a bad idea that people don't want to

1249
01:20:32,840 --> 01:20:37,679
Speaker 1: watch a feminist remake of Charlie's Angels, That Charlie's Angels

1250
01:20:37,680 --> 01:20:40,800
Speaker 1: really is rooted in what would be considered I think patriarchal,

1251
01:20:40,960 --> 01:20:44,400
Speaker 1: patriarchal notions of women in beauty and everything goes. So

1252
01:20:44,560 --> 01:20:49,599
Speaker 1: a girl powered Charlie's Angels is probably gonna flop. And

1253
01:20:49,880 --> 01:20:53,800
Speaker 1: what do you think that's? Oh, that's sexism, sexism. That's right,

1254
01:20:55,240 --> 01:20:57,880
Speaker 1: that's why it's not doing well. It's a movie which

1255
01:20:58,120 --> 01:21:01,000
Speaker 1: I would note is the same thing they said about

1256
01:21:01,040 --> 01:21:05,960
Speaker 1: the horrifically bad Ghostbusters movie, which is almost worth watching

1257
01:21:06,000 --> 01:21:10,960
Speaker 1: because you think, to yourself, wow, are there different standards

1258
01:21:11,160 --> 01:21:14,519
Speaker 1: for a lot of female comedians than male comedians? As

1259
01:21:14,560 --> 01:21:18,000
Speaker 1: in the female comedians cast in that movie. Are they

1260
01:21:18,040 --> 01:21:21,719
Speaker 1: able to be famous in their profession and rich without

1261
01:21:21,760 --> 01:21:25,240
Speaker 1: actually being any good at what they do? It's a

1262
01:21:25,240 --> 01:21:27,400
Speaker 1: fair question to ask if you see that movie, say,

1263
01:21:28,560 --> 01:21:30,800
Speaker 1: do female comedians have to even be funny in the

1264
01:21:30,840 --> 01:21:32,680
Speaker 1: current environment or they just have to be female and

1265
01:21:32,800 --> 01:21:38,320
Speaker 1: comedians and take the right political stances. Sometimes that movie

1266
01:21:38,840 --> 01:21:41,320
Speaker 1: was so unfunny that it was painful. I'm not going

1267
01:21:41,360 --> 01:21:43,360
Speaker 1: to see Charlie's Angels. I didn't even see the last one,

1268
01:21:43,360 --> 01:21:49,080
Speaker 1: which had Cameron Diaz back in her heyday. Although really

1269
01:21:49,120 --> 01:21:51,760
Speaker 1: Cameron Diaz's best role was as the romantic lead in

1270
01:21:51,800 --> 01:21:58,000
Speaker 1: the movie The Mask with Jim Carrey. What happened to

1271
01:21:58,080 --> 01:22:01,519
Speaker 1: Jim Carrey? That guy got super unfunny and really annoying

1272
01:22:01,640 --> 01:22:04,320
Speaker 1: very fast, didn't he as he got older? Cameron Diaz

1273
01:22:04,360 --> 01:22:07,080
Speaker 1: and Lucy lou And I'm forgetting who the third one was.

1274
01:22:07,240 --> 01:22:10,360
Speaker 1: Maybe it's Drew Barrymore. It's kind of a kind of

1275
01:22:10,400 --> 01:22:16,759
Speaker 1: surprise anyway. Sexism is the reason that this movie is bombing. See,

1276
01:22:16,760 --> 01:22:19,599
Speaker 1: this is the problem we have with with wokeness in Hollywood.

1277
01:22:19,640 --> 01:22:22,559
Speaker 1: They had these built in excuses, so even when the

1278
01:22:22,560 --> 01:22:25,840
Speaker 1: market speaks, they will ignore it. Even when the market

1279
01:22:25,880 --> 01:22:27,759
Speaker 1: tells them. People just don't want to see this movie,

1280
01:22:27,920 --> 01:22:32,800
Speaker 1: which is completely unsurprising. There's some rationalization for why it

1281
01:22:32,840 --> 01:22:38,479
Speaker 1: has done so poorly. One the one the only way

1282
01:22:38,479 --> 01:22:41,400
Speaker 1: that you can understand how Hollywood makes such bad movies

1283
01:22:42,000 --> 01:22:44,439
Speaker 1: and take such huge financial risks behind them is that

1284
01:22:45,000 --> 01:22:47,760
Speaker 1: they're so there is such an ideological tilt to the

1285
01:22:47,840 --> 01:22:51,720
Speaker 1: left that it blinds them that they are unable to

1286
01:22:51,760 --> 01:22:55,400
Speaker 1: be objective about these things sometimes and they assume that

1287
01:22:55,439 --> 01:23:00,280
Speaker 1: there must be a much broader support for these ideas

1288
01:23:00,320 --> 01:23:03,720
Speaker 1: as shown to us through film, then there will be,

1289
01:23:03,760 --> 01:23:05,439
Speaker 1: and that's why they're willing to risk so much money

1290
01:23:05,439 --> 01:23:07,439
Speaker 1: on what are just obviously bad ideas. But that again,

1291
01:23:08,520 --> 01:23:10,040
Speaker 1: in this piece I read about it, they said that

1292
01:23:10,880 --> 01:23:14,360
Speaker 1: the Jumanji remake made a lot of money, So I

1293
01:23:14,840 --> 01:23:16,800
Speaker 1: guess maybe they figure they just also roll the dice

1294
01:23:16,800 --> 01:23:22,120
Speaker 1: with remakes sometimes on these franchises and people will just

1295
01:23:22,160 --> 01:23:23,400
Speaker 1: go see it if they want to go see it,

1296
01:23:23,640 --> 01:23:27,519
Speaker 1: And I don't know, I have to. There's a little

1297
01:23:27,560 --> 01:23:29,360
Speaker 1: bit of I get pulled in the is this all

1298
01:23:29,360 --> 01:23:31,559
Speaker 1: just about social justice and wokeness that they make these

1299
01:23:31,560 --> 01:23:34,840
Speaker 1: bad decisions or they just Hollywood executives are risk averse

1300
01:23:34,840 --> 01:23:37,719
Speaker 1: and lazy And it could be a combination of both.

1301
01:23:37,840 --> 01:23:45,479
Speaker 1: Oh and speaking of using sexism as a response as

1302
01:23:45,640 --> 01:23:50,040
Speaker 1: a justification for failure in the realm of whether it's

1303
01:23:50,280 --> 01:23:55,400
Speaker 1: art or politics, as we know, I talked to about

1304
01:23:55,439 --> 01:23:57,880
Speaker 1: it last week, Hillary Clinton, who still claims that there

1305
01:23:57,960 --> 01:24:01,360
Speaker 1: was some sexism at work with not winning the presidency,

1306
01:24:02,200 --> 01:24:05,920
Speaker 1: not her terribleness as a candidate, utter lack of likability,

1307
01:24:06,400 --> 01:24:12,200
Speaker 1: utter lack of authenticity. That's not the reason that Chet

1308
01:24:12,280 --> 01:24:14,880
Speaker 1: went the presidency. No, it's because everyone is just so sexist.

1309
01:24:16,200 --> 01:24:20,960
Speaker 1: Bill Maher had this to say about Hillary play club

1310
01:24:21,040 --> 01:24:33,200
Speaker 1: bait please. This week, Hillary Clinton said she did you

1311
01:24:33,280 --> 01:24:36,920
Speaker 1: know she got more votes? Okay? Anybody else? Well, someone

1312
01:24:36,960 --> 01:24:41,759
Speaker 1: needs to put some XANX in her hot sauce, because listen,

1313
01:24:41,840 --> 01:24:45,519
Speaker 1: here's your quote. She said, I say never never, never

1314
01:24:45,600 --> 01:24:48,360
Speaker 1: say never. I will certainly tell you I'm under enormous

1315
01:24:48,360 --> 01:24:52,000
Speaker 1: pressure from many, many people to think about it. Yes,

1316
01:24:52,080 --> 01:24:57,560
Speaker 1: those are called Trump supporters. I first of all, I

1317
01:24:57,680 --> 01:24:59,360
Speaker 1: noticed I don't even know who was on the panel there.

1318
01:24:59,360 --> 01:25:01,920
Speaker 1: I couldn't tell from the voice. But that this is

1319
01:25:01,920 --> 01:25:04,839
Speaker 1: another story we talked before about Trump is an impostor.

1320
01:25:05,439 --> 01:25:07,479
Speaker 1: Here's somebody who's on a political show who assumes a

1321
01:25:07,479 --> 01:25:12,519
Speaker 1: political expert saying that Hillary one. They'll say this openly,

1322
01:25:12,520 --> 01:25:17,640
Speaker 1: they'll say that Hillary one. And we're supposed to just

1323
01:25:17,720 --> 01:25:21,479
Speaker 1: accept us. Oh we have oh, Stacy Abrams somebody else

1324
01:25:21,520 --> 01:25:24,400
Speaker 1: who just pretends that the current governor of Georgia is

1325
01:25:24,400 --> 01:25:27,200
Speaker 1: an impostor that that she really won. And oh, by

1326
01:25:27,200 --> 01:25:29,120
Speaker 1: the way, the system is right. Would you play a

1327
01:25:29,160 --> 01:25:33,320
Speaker 1: clip twenty please? Electoral college is racist and classist. We

1328
01:25:33,360 --> 01:25:35,439
Speaker 1: have to remember the electoral college was not designed because

1329
01:25:35,439 --> 01:25:38,680
Speaker 1: people were worried about Idaho not having enough volks. We

1330
01:25:38,720 --> 01:25:42,599
Speaker 1: didn't know about Idaho. What we did know we didn't.

1331
01:25:43,040 --> 01:25:45,519
Speaker 1: But what we did know was that in the South.

1332
01:25:45,920 --> 01:25:49,719
Speaker 1: The populations in the South had equal or roughly equal

1333
01:25:49,720 --> 01:25:53,400
Speaker 1: populations to the North. However, because black people were not

1334
01:25:53,439 --> 01:25:56,920
Speaker 1: considered human or citizens, they wanted their bodies to count

1335
01:25:56,920 --> 01:26:00,760
Speaker 1: for the purposes of the population count, but not their humanity,

1336
01:26:01,080 --> 01:26:04,080
Speaker 1: and the electoral college was designed to give Southern states

1337
01:26:04,120 --> 01:26:07,120
Speaker 1: the ability to count the bodies of slaves, but not

1338
01:26:07,200 --> 01:26:09,640
Speaker 1: have to allow them to cast votes, and thus the

1339
01:26:09,680 --> 01:26:13,320
Speaker 1: electoral college was born as a compromise. The other challenge

1340
01:26:13,400 --> 01:26:15,400
Speaker 1: was in the North, a lot of them didn't want

1341
01:26:15,439 --> 01:26:18,200
Speaker 1: immigrants making decisions, and they didn't believe that immigrants and

1342
01:26:18,280 --> 01:26:20,840
Speaker 1: that those who are not considered well educated should be

1343
01:26:20,840 --> 01:26:23,640
Speaker 1: making decisions about who the executive of our nation should be.

1344
01:26:23,840 --> 01:26:26,639
Speaker 1: So it was a combination of racism and classism. Both

1345
01:26:26,680 --> 01:26:29,800
Speaker 1: of those things should be flung to the far regions

1346
01:26:29,840 --> 01:26:32,920
Speaker 1: of history and the electoral college needs to go. So

1347
01:26:33,040 --> 01:26:37,479
Speaker 1: stay Abrams has essentially no understanding of the system of

1348
01:26:37,479 --> 01:26:40,120
Speaker 1: federalism that we have in this country and the states

1349
01:26:40,200 --> 01:26:41,960
Speaker 1: and the way that the states play into our system

1350
01:26:41,960 --> 01:26:43,240
Speaker 1: of God. I mean, let's just and she was going

1351
01:26:43,320 --> 01:26:44,760
Speaker 1: to be the governor of a state, and she thinks

1352
01:26:44,760 --> 01:26:46,240
Speaker 1: she won that election. But let's just put all that

1353
01:26:46,280 --> 01:26:53,120
Speaker 1: aside for a moment. Classism, sexism, racism, Democrats lose. Pick

1354
01:26:53,200 --> 01:26:57,320
Speaker 1: one of those three. That's the reason Hillary Clinton loses,

1355
01:26:57,640 --> 01:27:02,680
Speaker 1: sexism or Russia Trump chief, but Stacey Abrahams loses he

1356
01:27:02,840 --> 01:27:08,880
Speaker 1: cheated and also sexism, racism, etc. Etc. Over time, these

1357
01:27:10,479 --> 01:27:15,920
Speaker 1: bad faith criticisms have an impact. People start to think, well,

1358
01:27:15,960 --> 01:27:18,200
Speaker 1: maybe I guess there could be some truth to this.

1359
01:27:18,320 --> 01:27:21,920
Speaker 1: Is that really what's going on. Let's certainly just back

1360
01:27:21,920 --> 01:27:24,880
Speaker 1: to Hillary Clinton if I can for a moment. I

1361
01:27:25,479 --> 01:27:30,639
Speaker 1: disagree with mister Bill Maher here that the people who

1362
01:27:30,680 --> 01:27:33,360
Speaker 1: want Hillary to run are Republicans. I think there are

1363
01:27:33,360 --> 01:27:36,240
Speaker 1: a lot of Democrats who want Hillary to run because

1364
01:27:36,560 --> 01:27:39,000
Speaker 1: they say Trump's an impostor, they say he didn't really

1365
01:27:39,040 --> 01:27:43,479
Speaker 1: win the election. How can you set right what wrong

1366
01:27:43,960 --> 01:27:49,280
Speaker 1: was done in twenty sixteen better than having the rightful,

1367
01:27:50,160 --> 01:27:53,000
Speaker 1: quote unquote President of the United States from twenty sixteen

1368
01:27:53,080 --> 01:27:58,040
Speaker 1: finally take her place in the Oval office. The best

1369
01:27:58,080 --> 01:28:02,280
Speaker 1: repudiation of Trump that they could really have. I think

1370
01:28:02,320 --> 01:28:05,200
Speaker 1: even more so if you were just talking about this,

1371
01:28:05,280 --> 01:28:07,200
Speaker 1: forget about what is possible and just talk about what

1372
01:28:07,280 --> 01:28:13,960
Speaker 1: would be the ultimate victory for the left. Hillary beating

1373
01:28:14,000 --> 01:28:15,639
Speaker 1: Trump would be the thing that would make them happier

1374
01:28:15,680 --> 01:28:20,400
Speaker 1: than I think anything else. So I don't discount what

1375
01:28:20,520 --> 01:28:22,839
Speaker 1: she says here, even though she is kind of crazy.

1376
01:28:23,320 --> 01:28:25,400
Speaker 1: I don't discount that there are people telling her run,

1377
01:28:25,439 --> 01:28:26,920
Speaker 1: and I don't think there are Republicans. I think that

1378
01:28:26,960 --> 01:28:29,559
Speaker 1: there are a lot of very powerful Democrats who want

1379
01:28:29,600 --> 01:28:32,080
Speaker 1: her to get back in It was a convenient place

1380
01:28:32,080 --> 01:28:34,719
Speaker 1: to stay there. I mean, I mean, I've gone through

1381
01:28:34,760 --> 01:28:38,519
Speaker 1: this in my mind so many times. At the end

1382
01:28:38,520 --> 01:28:43,160
Speaker 1: of the day, with a benefit of all the hindsight

1383
01:28:43,280 --> 01:28:47,559
Speaker 1: that one could have, it was definitely the wrong thing

1384
01:28:47,560 --> 01:28:50,800
Speaker 1: to do, but at a time I felt it was

1385
01:28:50,840 --> 01:28:52,800
Speaker 1: that it was the honorable and right thing to do.

1386
01:28:53,560 --> 01:28:59,280
Speaker 1: And I admit fully that that that my judgment was

1387
01:28:59,439 --> 01:29:05,120
Speaker 1: probably colored by my tendency to be too honorable. But

1388
01:29:05,320 --> 01:29:13,599
Speaker 1: that's just the way it is. Wow, Prince Andrew of

1389
01:29:13,640 --> 01:29:15,800
Speaker 1: the Royal family, which I'm one of these people who

1390
01:29:15,800 --> 01:29:21,040
Speaker 1: says modern, industrialized and rule of law countries shouldn't have

1391
01:29:21,120 --> 01:29:24,320
Speaker 1: royal families, you know, I don't. I don't understand why

1392
01:29:24,320 --> 01:29:28,679
Speaker 1: this is complicated, but it is for some people. Prince Andrew,

1393
01:29:28,800 --> 01:29:32,120
Speaker 1: second son of Queen Elizabeth, of the Royal family here

1394
01:29:33,720 --> 01:29:36,400
Speaker 1: talking about why is it that he not only hung

1395
01:29:36,400 --> 01:29:43,639
Speaker 1: out with Epstein and was officially accused of having sex

1396
01:29:43,680 --> 01:29:46,479
Speaker 1: with a girl who was being sex trafficked by the

1397
01:29:46,600 --> 01:29:50,519
Speaker 1: girl on a sworn AFFI David now a woman, of course,

1398
01:29:50,520 --> 01:29:53,960
Speaker 1: but was a girl at the time, and why did

1399
01:29:54,000 --> 01:29:57,360
Speaker 1: he not? So those allegations are already out there. And

1400
01:29:57,439 --> 01:29:59,800
Speaker 1: there is a photo which I've mentioned to you, of

1401
01:30:00,160 --> 01:30:05,800
Speaker 1: Andrew holding Virginia Giffrey, I believe is how you say

1402
01:30:05,840 --> 01:30:08,040
Speaker 1: her name now? I think it was I forget her

1403
01:30:08,120 --> 01:30:10,720
Speaker 1: name from before she was married, but when she was

1404
01:30:11,160 --> 01:30:13,880
Speaker 1: fourteen or fifteen years old, and he's holding her around

1405
01:30:13,880 --> 01:30:16,240
Speaker 1: the waist very closely. And this is not his daughter,

1406
01:30:16,520 --> 01:30:19,200
Speaker 1: this is not a relative. What is going on here?

1407
01:30:19,640 --> 01:30:24,240
Speaker 1: The photo itself is suspicious, to say the least suspicious.

1408
01:30:24,120 --> 01:30:27,360
Speaker 1: He's a middle aged guy at the time. You know,

1409
01:30:27,439 --> 01:30:30,160
Speaker 1: he's not He's not twenty hanging out with a with

1410
01:30:30,240 --> 01:30:32,519
Speaker 1: a sixteen year old. It's not like, oh, maybe they

1411
01:30:32,520 --> 01:30:35,479
Speaker 1: were high school friends or peers or something. Oh no,

1412
01:30:35,640 --> 01:30:42,040
Speaker 1: he's like fifty and she's fourteen. So you just their

1413
01:30:42,160 --> 01:30:44,519
Speaker 1: mere presence today, I'm not even talking about having any relations.

1414
01:30:44,520 --> 01:30:51,080
Speaker 1: Just their mere presence together is strange, right, as suspicious.

1415
01:30:51,160 --> 01:30:55,719
Speaker 1: So he is now trying to explain in this BBC interview,

1416
01:30:56,439 --> 01:31:00,760
Speaker 1: which has been pretty much by every analysis I've read.

1417
01:31:00,760 --> 01:31:02,400
Speaker 1: I've seen some clips of it, didn't watch the whole things.

1418
01:31:02,400 --> 01:31:03,720
Speaker 1: I don't think I really have to, because I get

1419
01:31:03,720 --> 01:31:05,760
Speaker 1: it what's going on with this guy. They've called it

1420
01:31:05,920 --> 01:31:12,800
Speaker 1: nuclear explosion level bad, and he makes claims in it

1421
01:31:12,880 --> 01:31:16,200
Speaker 1: that are just not credible to people watching. Like he says,

1422
01:31:16,320 --> 01:31:19,040
Speaker 1: first of all, that his honor led him to go

1423
01:31:19,160 --> 01:31:23,040
Speaker 1: and break off his friendship with Epstein over the course

1424
01:31:23,080 --> 01:31:24,840
Speaker 1: of a few days, staying at his home here in

1425
01:31:24,880 --> 01:31:28,639
Speaker 1: New York City, after Epstein had already been convicted of

1426
01:31:29,360 --> 01:31:33,679
Speaker 1: sex crimes involving underage girls. You don't think, You don't

1427
01:31:33,680 --> 01:31:35,479
Speaker 1: think a phone call or a text message can get

1428
01:31:35,479 --> 01:31:37,080
Speaker 1: that one done. You gotta go spend a few days

1429
01:31:37,080 --> 01:31:40,240
Speaker 1: at his house when he's a convicted sex offender and

1430
01:31:40,320 --> 01:31:42,320
Speaker 1: you are not just some guy, you are part of

1431
01:31:42,360 --> 01:31:48,120
Speaker 1: the royal family for whatever that means. Does anyone cared

1432
01:31:48,120 --> 01:31:50,439
Speaker 1: to explain that one? And he wouldn't care to have

1433
01:31:50,560 --> 01:31:57,160
Speaker 1: a h M. That's a strange claim for our British

1434
01:31:57,240 --> 01:31:59,000
Speaker 1: royal to make. And then he went on to say

1435
01:31:59,040 --> 01:32:01,880
Speaker 1: that none of this even sounds like him, that he

1436
01:32:02,680 --> 01:32:05,040
Speaker 1: it's not like him to go partying and be around,

1437
01:32:05,200 --> 01:32:07,960
Speaker 1: you know, young women in this way. And he made

1438
01:32:07,960 --> 01:32:10,040
Speaker 1: these claims in his interview, and then people started producing

1439
01:32:10,040 --> 01:32:11,640
Speaker 1: photos of him or no, it does seem like he

1440
01:32:11,680 --> 01:32:14,800
Speaker 1: likes to be around attractive women and women who are

1441
01:32:14,800 --> 01:32:18,200
Speaker 1: considerably younger than So why lie about that, not even

1442
01:32:18,200 --> 01:32:22,040
Speaker 1: talking about underage girls or relations sexual relations with them

1443
01:32:22,080 --> 01:32:25,679
Speaker 1: in violation of law just in general? Why hold yourself

1444
01:32:25,760 --> 01:32:30,160
Speaker 1: up as somebody that you are not. Why would you

1445
01:32:30,280 --> 01:32:34,640
Speaker 1: use this? This is his come clean moment, isn't it?

1446
01:32:34,720 --> 01:32:38,000
Speaker 1: This is his This is the time in which you

1447
01:32:38,320 --> 01:32:43,160
Speaker 1: would want to be as as honest as possible if

1448
01:32:43,280 --> 01:32:46,160
Speaker 1: honesty was in your favor. But I think we all

1449
01:32:46,200 --> 01:32:50,960
Speaker 1: know that this did not look good for him, perhaps

1450
01:32:51,000 --> 01:32:58,880
Speaker 1: because honesty is not in his favor Jeffrey Epstein, he admits,

1451
01:32:59,000 --> 01:33:01,639
Speaker 1: was it's a bad idea that he was friends with him. Well,

1452
01:33:01,680 --> 01:33:09,519
Speaker 1: he was quite close with him. This guy also shows

1453
01:33:09,600 --> 01:33:16,680
Speaker 1: us that aristocracies are not sending us their best. You

1454
01:33:16,720 --> 01:33:21,920
Speaker 1: could say that this guy is deeply unimpressive and that

1455
01:33:23,439 --> 01:33:25,960
Speaker 1: I just I can't imagine anyone coming away from this

1456
01:33:27,240 --> 01:33:34,320
Speaker 1: thinking anything other than this was a disaster for him,

1457
01:33:34,360 --> 01:33:38,640
Speaker 1: a disaster for him because the truth is not on

1458
01:33:38,680 --> 01:33:42,880
Speaker 1: his side. And then it brings me to something else here.

1459
01:33:44,120 --> 01:33:46,400
Speaker 1: And I'm just going to continue to bring this up

1460
01:33:46,439 --> 01:33:49,760
Speaker 1: as I can, because you know, I don't have the

1461
01:33:49,800 --> 01:33:52,080
Speaker 1: time and the resources to you know, I'm not a

1462
01:33:52,280 --> 01:33:54,559
Speaker 1: I'm not running a major newsroom with a thousand reporters

1463
01:33:54,640 --> 01:33:56,280
Speaker 1: or something, so I can't assign anyone to do this.

1464
01:33:56,400 --> 01:34:00,720
Speaker 1: But I just refuse to believe the following. Rather, let

1465
01:34:00,760 --> 01:34:02,320
Speaker 1: me walk you through my thinking and then I'll tell

1466
01:34:02,320 --> 01:34:04,720
Speaker 1: you what I refused to believe. There's another report out

1467
01:34:04,760 --> 01:34:09,240
Speaker 1: today that Epstein had set up peepole cameras to catch

1468
01:34:09,320 --> 01:34:14,840
Speaker 1: people in intimate moments at his various super high end properties,

1469
01:34:14,840 --> 01:34:17,000
Speaker 1: where we know for a fact there was the trafficking

1470
01:34:17,000 --> 01:34:23,040
Speaker 1: of underage girls as sex slaves. So he was taking

1471
01:34:23,120 --> 01:34:26,080
Speaker 1: video of people. He had set this up. It was elaborate.

1472
01:34:27,240 --> 01:34:29,200
Speaker 1: Why is it that we haven't heard any new names

1473
01:34:29,200 --> 01:34:33,759
Speaker 1: of any individuals who were involved in this? And here's

1474
01:34:33,960 --> 01:34:39,240
Speaker 1: another question, are we really to believe that Epstein had

1475
01:34:39,240 --> 01:34:43,240
Speaker 1: set up a very elaborate blackmail operation? There are substantial

1476
01:34:43,320 --> 01:34:46,479
Speaker 1: reporting another report today in the New York Post about this,

1477
01:34:46,560 --> 01:34:48,240
Speaker 1: one of the women that he was trafficking, saying, look,

1478
01:34:48,240 --> 01:34:51,160
Speaker 1: he was, he had cameras and all these in all

1479
01:34:51,160 --> 01:34:55,720
Speaker 1: these places. Why have we found out nothing? But why

1480
01:34:55,760 --> 01:34:58,920
Speaker 1: is there no evidence? Did he not Was he sending

1481
01:34:58,960 --> 01:35:02,000
Speaker 1: up cameras and wasn't record anything? Because that would seem

1482
01:35:02,000 --> 01:35:05,640
Speaker 1: completely counterintuitive. I don't believe that for a second. That

1483
01:35:05,720 --> 01:35:10,679
Speaker 1: makes no sense. So he was recording people? Is there

1484
01:35:10,800 --> 01:35:14,120
Speaker 1: evidence of people being recorded? Have we seen any of this?

1485
01:35:14,680 --> 01:35:17,760
Speaker 1: So we have no additional names from the ones that

1486
01:35:17,800 --> 01:35:21,800
Speaker 1: have already been named, and we have no presentation or

1487
01:35:22,080 --> 01:35:25,719
Speaker 1: no reporting law from law enforcement side of any evidence

1488
01:35:25,720 --> 01:35:29,720
Speaker 1: that they have come across that shows people engaged in

1489
01:35:30,680 --> 01:35:33,160
Speaker 1: in illicit acts with underaged girls, which would seem to

1490
01:35:33,160 --> 01:35:37,360
Speaker 1: be the whole purpose of Epstein's blackmail network in the

1491
01:35:37,400 --> 01:35:41,519
Speaker 1: first place. At what point does this start to feel

1492
01:35:41,600 --> 01:35:46,040
Speaker 1: like something not credible is going on here in the

1493
01:35:46,080 --> 01:35:49,080
Speaker 1: process of getting the answers. It didn't get me started

1494
01:35:49,080 --> 01:35:52,600
Speaker 1: on like the hyoid bone, And at what point is it?

1495
01:35:52,640 --> 01:35:56,080
Speaker 1: Does it seem like maybe nobody really wants to get

1496
01:35:56,200 --> 01:35:58,880
Speaker 1: these answers. We just had Prince Andrew give his whole Hey,

1497
01:35:58,920 --> 01:36:03,240
Speaker 1: I didn't do anything wrong. Okay, well he didn't convince

1498
01:36:03,280 --> 01:36:05,400
Speaker 1: He certainly didn't convince me with the interview. Based on

1499
01:36:05,439 --> 01:36:07,120
Speaker 1: what I've read from the transcript and the clips that

1500
01:36:07,160 --> 01:36:11,800
Speaker 1: I've seen, some very strange things this guy said. Does

1501
01:36:11,840 --> 01:36:14,160
Speaker 1: anyone want to dig into this story a bit more? Well,

1502
01:36:16,080 --> 01:36:18,080
Speaker 1: I really do believe that some of the people who

1503
01:36:18,120 --> 01:36:21,240
Speaker 1: are are implicated, and we know one of them was

1504
01:36:22,640 --> 01:36:25,479
Speaker 1: President of the United States for eight years and a Democrat. Okay,

1505
01:36:26,280 --> 01:36:28,200
Speaker 1: people that are implicated as at least being very close

1506
01:36:28,240 --> 01:36:30,160
Speaker 1: to Epstein and should have known about Epstein. I think

1507
01:36:30,160 --> 01:36:33,240
Speaker 1: that there's just a fear even among people. Maybe they

1508
01:36:33,240 --> 01:36:36,120
Speaker 1: haven't maybe some journalists haven't found this stuff yet, but

1509
01:36:36,160 --> 01:36:39,720
Speaker 1: they don't even really want to find it because of

1510
01:36:39,720 --> 01:36:42,960
Speaker 1: what it would mean, what it would mean for people

1511
01:36:43,000 --> 01:36:46,280
Speaker 1: that they perhaps have idolized or I thought were necessary

1512
01:36:46,320 --> 01:36:52,880
Speaker 1: for a cause or necessary for political victory. Keep in

1513
01:36:52,920 --> 01:36:56,160
Speaker 1: mind that, yeah, I mean, Hillary Clinton is probably not

1514
01:36:56,160 --> 01:36:58,120
Speaker 1: going to run for president again, but the Clinton name

1515
01:36:58,200 --> 01:37:01,519
Speaker 1: is still very much a political dynasty, and Chelsea Clinton

1516
01:37:01,720 --> 01:37:03,559
Speaker 1: is I'm the same guy who told you Blasi Ford

1517
01:37:03,600 --> 01:37:04,920
Speaker 1: was going to be getting awards and stuff, and here

1518
01:37:04,960 --> 01:37:06,880
Speaker 1: we are. Chelsea Clinton is going to run for office

1519
01:37:07,120 --> 01:37:09,519
Speaker 1: and she's probably going to win, not necessarily the presidency,

1520
01:37:09,560 --> 01:37:11,200
Speaker 1: but she'll be a senator from New York. She just

1521
01:37:11,240 --> 01:37:13,719
Speaker 1: pick a state to be senator from that blue state,

1522
01:37:13,760 --> 01:37:17,120
Speaker 1: no problem. She's boring, she's unimpressive, never had to actually

1523
01:37:17,160 --> 01:37:19,439
Speaker 1: have a real job in her life, but she will be.

1524
01:37:19,800 --> 01:37:24,559
Speaker 1: So there's a desire, a recognition among journalists, recognition among

1525
01:37:24,600 --> 01:37:28,120
Speaker 1: the institutional left to protect the Clinton name. Could that

1526
01:37:28,160 --> 01:37:30,280
Speaker 1: be factoring into why we don't get any more information

1527
01:37:30,320 --> 01:37:34,360
Speaker 1: about the Epstein situation. That certainly seems plausible too. We

1528
01:37:34,400 --> 01:37:35,880
Speaker 1: know he's on him, not just pulling him in out

1529
01:37:35,880 --> 01:37:37,560
Speaker 1: of nowhere. We know he was on the plane a

1530
01:37:37,600 --> 01:37:39,240
Speaker 1: whole bunch of times. We know the he was hanging

1531
01:37:39,280 --> 01:37:43,840
Speaker 1: out there were friends Epstein and Bill Clinton. Is that

1532
01:37:43,880 --> 01:37:47,080
Speaker 1: why because there's just there's such a lack of it

1533
01:37:47,200 --> 01:37:50,880
Speaker 1: seems of interest from the mainstream media from these huge

1534
01:37:50,920 --> 01:37:55,639
Speaker 1: news organizations with tremendous resources to get answers here. Everything

1535
01:37:55,680 --> 01:37:57,800
Speaker 1: we've been told, this guy committed suicide in prison under

1536
01:37:57,840 --> 01:38:00,920
Speaker 1: shady circumstances. That was a huge black eye for the

1537
01:38:01,280 --> 01:38:03,760
Speaker 1: Bureau of Prisons at a minimum, I mean, depending on

1538
01:38:03,880 --> 01:38:05,800
Speaker 1: I who we talked to. Also, there's other stuff that

1539
01:38:05,880 --> 01:38:09,320
Speaker 1: maybe was involved here, perhaps Epstein was I've never thought

1540
01:38:09,320 --> 01:38:12,400
Speaker 1: that he was killed. I do think that there is

1541
01:38:12,439 --> 01:38:15,479
Speaker 1: a plausible way to get to maybe this guy was

1542
01:38:15,560 --> 01:38:19,920
Speaker 1: allowed to kill himself, so to speak. There's plenty of

1543
01:38:19,960 --> 01:38:22,120
Speaker 1: evidence you could point to. It says Okay, Well, he's

1544
01:38:22,160 --> 01:38:24,000
Speaker 1: the first person in the history of the Manhattan Correctional

1545
01:38:24,000 --> 01:38:26,439
Speaker 1: Facility in New York that was able to successfull commit

1546
01:38:26,439 --> 01:38:29,360
Speaker 1: suicide of these circumstances. It's been around for forty years, folks.

1547
01:38:29,680 --> 01:38:31,519
Speaker 1: First one, there's people that right now, people are held

1548
01:38:31,520 --> 01:38:34,640
Speaker 1: every day. First guy just happened to be this guy.

1549
01:38:35,360 --> 01:38:37,840
Speaker 1: It's a big coincidence, a lot of big coincidence. We're

1550
01:38:37,840 --> 01:38:41,280
Speaker 1: being asked. I'm telling you they didn't touch the story

1551
01:38:41,320 --> 01:38:45,680
Speaker 1: for how many years initially, So it would really be

1552
01:38:45,960 --> 01:38:51,640
Speaker 1: the media's willingness to just not pay any attention to

1553
01:38:51,680 --> 01:38:53,760
Speaker 1: this whole situation would be in keeping with what they've

1554
01:38:53,760 --> 01:38:58,600
Speaker 1: done in the past. Something is up here. I have ideas,

1555
01:38:58,640 --> 01:39:01,519
Speaker 1: I do not have proof, but there's something going on.

1556
01:39:01,840 --> 01:39:04,360
Speaker 1: Continue to pay attention to this. You're gonna have to

1557
01:39:04,400 --> 01:39:06,519
Speaker 1: read a little bit between the between the lines. You

1558
01:39:06,520 --> 01:39:10,120
Speaker 1: have to pay attention to the subtleties and the subtext

1559
01:39:11,000 --> 01:39:15,519
Speaker 1: because there are a lot of very powerful people who

1560
01:39:15,640 --> 01:39:17,479
Speaker 1: do not want to get to the bottom of what

1561
01:39:17,560 --> 01:39:21,400
Speaker 1: was really going on here. We know ABC News was

1562
01:39:21,439 --> 01:39:23,160
Speaker 1: willing to skip past this because of access to the

1563
01:39:23,240 --> 01:39:25,160
Speaker 1: royal family. Now we see one of these royal family guys.

1564
01:39:25,560 --> 01:39:35,200
Speaker 1: How do you think ABC News should feel about this? Hey,

1565

1584
01:40:39,600 --> 01:40:44,840
Speaker 1: Section Show. All right, staycy. I read the daily up

1585
01:40:44,880 --> 01:40:50,120
Speaker 1: first email from Pluto TV. There were some spelling ears.

1586
01:40:50,120 --> 01:40:53,240
Speaker 1: Thanks and shield side all right, Stacy, I'll make sure

1587
01:40:53,280 --> 01:40:56,120
Speaker 1: that we we get some more proofreading. Go in there.

1588
01:40:58,200 --> 01:41:03,479
Speaker 1: Let's see here, John, hold on a second. Whoa, John,

1589
01:41:03,600 --> 01:41:05,760
Speaker 1: This is like a thousand words, so I can't read

1590
01:41:05,760 --> 01:41:07,200
Speaker 1: this on air right now, but I will read it

1591
01:41:07,280 --> 01:41:12,519
Speaker 1: when I can. Adam Buck disagree on Amelio Estevez and

1592
01:41:12,720 --> 01:41:16,000
Speaker 1: his best movie. I would put Men at Work in

1593
01:41:16,040 --> 01:41:19,920
Speaker 1: the top spot. Shields High. Adam, I appreciate your opinion

1594
01:41:19,920 --> 01:41:22,960
Speaker 1: despite the fact that it is wrong. Young Guns is

1595
01:41:23,040 --> 01:41:26,160
Speaker 1: clearly better than Men at Work. I don't. I would

1596
01:41:26,200 --> 01:41:27,920
Speaker 1: put this out of the realm of opinion and into

1597
01:41:27,920 --> 01:41:32,519
Speaker 1: the realm of fact. Facts. First, my friend, I don't

1598
01:41:32,520 --> 01:41:34,439
Speaker 1: even remember I saw Men at Work. I don't even remember.

1599
01:41:34,439 --> 01:41:37,080
Speaker 1: It isn't like garbage men who come upon some plot

1600
01:41:37,120 --> 01:41:40,280
Speaker 1: to get rid of, like toxic waste or something. Producer Mark,

1601
01:41:40,360 --> 01:41:43,920
Speaker 1: did you see it? No? Well, isn't his best movie, well,

1602
01:41:43,920 --> 01:41:46,080
Speaker 1: other than The Mighty Ducks, Right, I mean Breakfast Club.

1603
01:41:49,160 --> 01:41:50,720
Speaker 1: I was willing, I was getting ready to make fun

1604
01:41:50,800 --> 01:41:52,720
Speaker 1: of your addition into this and actually, and now I

1605
01:41:52,800 --> 01:41:55,080
Speaker 1: have to respect that the Breakfast Club might in fact

1606
01:41:55,120 --> 01:41:58,080
Speaker 1: be I mean, it's number two behind the Mighty Ducks trilogy.

1607
01:41:58,160 --> 01:42:00,120
Speaker 1: But right, well, we've already established that you're wrong the

1608
01:42:00,160 --> 01:42:01,960
Speaker 1: Mighty Ducks. But I'm just trying. You've never even seen it,

1609
01:42:02,000 --> 01:42:04,160
Speaker 1: so you can't call me wrong on that, all right,

1610
01:42:04,200 --> 01:42:06,880
Speaker 1: that's technically true? Yeah, but yeah, no, I think The

1611
01:42:06,880 --> 01:42:08,800
Speaker 1: Breakfast Club would have to be in the in the

1612
01:42:08,880 --> 01:42:12,280
Speaker 1: very top Young Guns a very entertaining movie though. But

1613
01:42:12,360 --> 01:42:13,840
Speaker 1: Men at Work is also the name of it is

1614
01:42:13,920 --> 01:42:17,479
Speaker 1: I think an Australian band. Who could it be knocking

1615
01:42:17,600 --> 01:42:20,400
Speaker 1: at my door? Yeah? It sounds like a band, right,

1616
01:42:20,439 --> 01:42:23,800
Speaker 1: are they Australian or am I thinking of like, I

1617
01:42:23,840 --> 01:42:26,719
Speaker 1: don't know, I don't know. No, they're not Australian. That's

1618
01:42:26,760 --> 01:42:29,280
Speaker 1: tough to tell. Those Brits, those Aussies when they sing,

1619
01:42:29,760 --> 01:42:32,960
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, the fancy accent disappears. Oh when

1620
01:42:33,000 --> 01:42:36,479
Speaker 1: you sing, you actually sound like an American. Isn't that

1621
01:42:36,600 --> 01:42:40,519
Speaker 1: crazy how that happens like that? It's very rare that

1622
01:42:40,600 --> 01:42:42,840
Speaker 1: singers have an accent. No, they don't. You know, when

1623
01:42:42,840 --> 01:42:45,000
Speaker 1: you sing sound because this is the way. If you're

1624
01:42:45,000 --> 01:42:47,519
Speaker 1: going to make the sounds that we make with our mouths,

1625
01:42:47,880 --> 01:42:51,320
Speaker 1: you speak American. I'm trying to say, we do it

1626
01:42:51,360 --> 01:42:53,760
Speaker 1: the right way. Yeah. Well, we just told like this

1627
01:42:53,920 --> 01:42:57,400
Speaker 1: all the time because it sounds so cool. It does

1628
01:42:57,439 --> 01:43:00,760
Speaker 1: sound cool. You can't deny that it sounds cool. I know.

1629
01:43:00,800 --> 01:43:03,120
Speaker 1: It's such a huge advantage. People in this business who

1630
01:43:03,120 --> 01:43:05,760
Speaker 1: were like, oh, I've got a British accent, so now

1631
01:43:05,960 --> 01:43:09,200
Speaker 1: go on television never will think would USA is so small?

1632
01:43:09,320 --> 01:43:10,920
Speaker 1: Does it work the same way the other way around?

1633
01:43:10,960 --> 01:43:13,280
Speaker 1: If we go to London with an American accent, Nope,

1634
01:43:13,280 --> 01:43:15,479
Speaker 1: they make fun of us. They're like, hey, my name

1635
01:43:15,600 --> 01:43:18,240
Speaker 1: is Bob and I'm from Chicago. That's how they always

1636
01:43:18,280 --> 01:43:20,439
Speaker 1: do American accents in the UK. It's totally true. They

1637
01:43:20,439 --> 01:43:22,800
Speaker 1: think we all sound like that kind of like a

1638
01:43:22,800 --> 01:43:25,760
Speaker 1: almost like a Midwestern meets New York accent. Yes, like

1639
01:43:25,840 --> 01:43:28,840
Speaker 1: with their mouths really tight and talking like this. Because

1640
01:43:28,920 --> 01:43:30,240
Speaker 1: I have a lot of British friends, so I know

1641
01:43:30,280 --> 01:43:33,160
Speaker 1: that's what they do. They make fun of us. Whatever.

1642
01:43:33,800 --> 01:43:39,000
Speaker 1: Seventeen seventy six, boom, all, I gotta say, let's see

1643
01:43:39,439 --> 01:43:43,320
Speaker 1: Richard wrights buck. So Virginia is going to pass the

1644
01:43:43,400 --> 01:43:47,040
Speaker 1: Equal Rights Amendment, which expired something like thirty years ago,

1645
01:43:48,000 --> 01:43:50,040
Speaker 1: but the Dems say they're going to change the deadline,

1646
01:43:50,080 --> 01:43:52,760
Speaker 1: so there is no deadline. How is the DEM's gonna

1647
01:43:52,760 --> 01:43:55,120
Speaker 1: say that states can't resend their amendment as four states have,

1648
01:43:55,240 --> 01:43:58,200
Speaker 1: but it's gonna take the ra ignoring or take up

1649
01:43:58,240 --> 01:44:01,160
Speaker 1: the ear ignoring the seven year Richard, I don't know what.

1650
01:44:01,320 --> 01:44:02,760
Speaker 1: I don't even know what this is, man, I got

1651
01:44:02,880 --> 01:44:04,320
Speaker 1: to look this up. I'm out up on the Equal

1652
01:44:04,400 --> 01:44:07,479
Speaker 1: Rights Amendment and Virginia stuff. So I'm sorry, I got

1653
01:44:07,520 --> 01:44:10,559
Speaker 1: nothing for for once, I have nothing to really add

1654
01:44:10,600 --> 01:44:17,000
Speaker 1: into the scenario here. Um Michael says, ask producer Mark

1655
01:44:17,120 --> 01:44:20,519
Speaker 1: about the movie slap Shot. I've never even heard of

1656
01:44:20,560 --> 01:44:23,320
Speaker 1: this movie. You've never seen slap Shot. No, it's the

1657
01:44:23,320 --> 01:44:25,479
Speaker 1: best hockey movie other than The Mighty Ducks ever made.

1658
01:44:25,720 --> 01:44:28,800
Speaker 1: Is it funny or is it it's hilarious? Yeah? Who's

1659
01:44:28,800 --> 01:44:33,719
Speaker 1: in it? The Handsome Burton? No no, it's the Handsome Brothers,

1660
01:44:34,880 --> 01:44:37,719
Speaker 1: the kids from Umbop? No, no no, no, the Handsome Brothers

1661
01:44:37,760 --> 01:44:39,760
Speaker 1: are the main characters. I don't think that's that's their

1662
01:44:39,760 --> 01:44:43,200
Speaker 1: actual names in real life. Oh yeah, okay, I was like,

1663
01:44:43,439 --> 01:44:46,920
Speaker 1: it's based on a minor league hockey team. But it

1664
01:44:47,000 --> 01:44:49,400
Speaker 1: is hilarious because I would argue that the song Umbop

1665
01:44:49,560 --> 01:44:51,560
Speaker 1: is the most annoying song that has ever been a

1666
01:44:51,600 --> 01:44:55,080
Speaker 1: successful song in America, even more annoying than the Venga Boys,

1667
01:44:55,160 --> 01:44:57,840
Speaker 1: The Venga Bus Is Coming and the Macarena. I think

1668
01:44:58,840 --> 01:45:00,880
Speaker 1: I think Umbop might be the mos some annoying song

1669
01:45:00,960 --> 01:45:05,880
Speaker 1: ever recorded in America. I like him, Bup. I don't

1670
01:45:05,880 --> 01:45:07,760
Speaker 1: even know what to say to you right now. Well,

1671
01:45:08,000 --> 01:45:10,439
Speaker 1: what's wrong with him? Bop? I just you know, folks,

1672
01:45:10,479 --> 01:45:12,280
Speaker 1: he's under a lot of pressure. He's getting a couple

1673
01:45:12,280 --> 01:45:14,639
Speaker 1: of weeks, so we're just gonna let him. He's gonna
