1
00:00:01,800 --> 00:00:04,920
Speaker 1: Jeff Schuber proclaimed this morning that every day gets better

2
00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:08,360
Speaker 1: for them. No Evan is it's actually getting worse for

3
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:11,680
Speaker 1: them and having a rebellion in the Democrat Party because

4
00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:14,400
Speaker 1: they want to stop. So this is a confession that

5
00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:17,880
Speaker 1: he's acting not to serve the people, but to serve

6
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:20,200
Speaker 1: the partisan interests of this party.

7
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:24,000
Speaker 2: You're listening to the forty seven Morning Update with Ben Ferguson.

8
00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:25,279
Speaker 3: Good Saturday morning to you.

9
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:27,639
Speaker 4: Ben Ferguson with you, and these are some of the

10
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,880
Speaker 4: stories that you may have missed that we talked about

11
00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:32,920
Speaker 4: this week on the forty seven Morning Update. First up,

12
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:36,400
Speaker 4: this story is one the media is not covering. Instead

13
00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:39,440
Speaker 4: they're going to talk about the government shut down. Jack

14
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:44,280
Speaker 4: Smith and the Biden Department of Justice. We're tracking the

15
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:50,959
Speaker 4: phone calls of their political enemies, specifically eight GOP sinners

16
00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:57,319
Speaker 4: and a Republican congressman. Yes, they were literally spying on

17
00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:00,760
Speaker 4: our men and women that are in Washington who've been

18
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:04,000
Speaker 4: elected by you and I and the one thing and

19
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 4: the only thing they had in common was that they

20
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 4: were all Republicans. Also, the FBI director Caspittel has fired

21
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:18,840
Speaker 4: the FBI agents involved in tracking GOP senator phone calls.

22
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:22,319
Speaker 4: But first, did you see that gold just hit an

23
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:26,760
Speaker 4: all time new high of over four thousand dollars an ounce?

24
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:29,280
Speaker 4: And if you hear that, you're like, are you kidding me?

25
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:32,920
Speaker 4: And you're thinking, gosh, I missed my opportunity. Well, I

26
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,399
Speaker 4: don't know if you missed your opportunity. But my friends

27
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,840
Speaker 4: at Kurt Elliott Precious Medals they can answer that question

28
00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 4: for you.

29
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:40,759
Speaker 3: You also may not.

30
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 4: Be paying attention to the incredible gains with silver that

31
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 4: are happening right now as well. And that's why I

32
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 4: trust the guidance of the team at kirk Elliott. In fact,

33
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:54,919
Speaker 4: I literally just got a hundred ounce bar of silver

34
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 4: the other day. And the reason why is because after

35
00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 4: I talked to the team at kirk Elliot Press Medals,

36
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 4: they let me understand exactly where I can have a.

37
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 3: Big upside in investing in silver. Now.

38
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 4: The other part that I love about them is this

39
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 4: they have transparent pricing. There are a lot of gold

40
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,120
Speaker 4: companies that you'll hear about if you listen to talk

41
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 4: radio or podcasts or watch TV, but do they tell

42
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:22,959
Speaker 4: you how the pricing actually works well. At kirk Elliott,

43
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 4: they're real simple, just eight percent when you buy, and

44
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:31,400
Speaker 4: zero commissions when you sell, with no hidden fees. Ever,

45
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,360
Speaker 4: that is the other reason why I recommend them to

46
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:37,359
Speaker 4: all of you. They also don't sell you quote rare

47
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 4: coins or precious coins that you pay insane markups on

48
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 4: and then when you go to sell them you find

49
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 4: out they're really not worth that much.

50
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:47,800
Speaker 3: They are a bullyon only approach.

51
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:54,080
Speaker 4: They focus on investment grade medals, no overpriced collectibles, no gimmicks.

52
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,280
Speaker 4: That means you get more gold or silver for your

53
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 4: money at fair value when it's time for you to sell.

54
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:04,080
Speaker 4: So if you're ready to find out if gold and

55
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:07,480
Speaker 4: silver is right for you and your portfolio, then call

56
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:10,720
Speaker 4: them and get a plan. You can visit them at

00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,320
Speaker 4: Morning Update and it starts right now.

63
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 3: Story number one.

64
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:41,720
Speaker 4: This is a story that I'm about to tell you

65
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 4: that it's an incredibly important one. It is a fact

66
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 4: now that the FBI literally spied on not one, not two,

67
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 4: not three, four, five, six, seven, but eight GOP senators.

68
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 4: It was called a total analysis. That is the terminology

69
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 4: that's used by FBI investigators to analyze cellular call data

70
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 4: for federal probes. Think of it as link analysis that

71
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:19,240
Speaker 4: shows patterns of communication location data as well as potential

72
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:25,720
Speaker 4: targets network of associates. This should shock every single one

73
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 4: of you to a core. And these declassified records, as

74
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:34,039
Speaker 4: the FBI Director Cash Betel is now exposing code name

75
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 4: Arctic Frost was brought because of a whistle blower disclosures

76
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:42,919
Speaker 4: to Senator Grassley and Senator Ron Johnson that showed nearly

77
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 4: one hundred conservative groups, including Turning Point USA, were part

78
00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:54,760
Speaker 4: of the probe. Now you have something that's even more shocking,

79
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 4: and that is not only was the FBI going after

80
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 4: conservative groups, but the FBI was spying on senators and

81
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 4: some of those senators are now fighting back. Senator Ron

82
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 4: Johnson saying it this way in a statement earlier, I

83
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:13,480
Speaker 4: was just briefed by the FBI's Dan Bongino that the

84
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:18,799
Speaker 4: FBI and the Justice Department obtained call logs from eight

85
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:27,040
Speaker 4: US senators, including myself. We were surveilled simply for being Republicans.

86
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 4: This does not surprise me, but it should shock every American.

87
00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:37,719
Speaker 4: Senator Johnson continued, What the Biden administration has done is

88
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 4: an outrageous abuse of power. It is blatant political persecution.

89
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 4: Those responsible must be held fully accountable. Now you may

90
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,960
Speaker 4: ask yourself what is in this actual document. The Federal

91
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:58,120
Speaker 4: Bureau of Investigation unclassified document dated nine to twenty seven

92
00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:02,160
Speaker 4: of twenty twenty three puts it in a simple manner.

93
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 4: The FBI special agent with the name redacted, conducted preliminary

94
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:12,680
Speaker 4: toll analysis on limited tolls records associated with the following

95
00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:20,360
Speaker 4: US Senators Mike Kelly, Lindsey Graham, Bill Haggerty, Josh Holly,

96
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 4: Dan Sullivan, Tommy Tuberville, Ron Johnson, Cynthia Loomis, and Senator

97
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:32,760
Speaker 4: Marsha Blackburn. You look at what I just explained to you,

98
00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:37,400
Speaker 4: and this is the weaponization literally of our federal government

99
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:41,960
Speaker 4: right before our eyes. The other question is this, who

100
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:46,040
Speaker 4: are the FBI's supervisory special agents and why are their

101
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:50,279
Speaker 4: names redacted? Who approved the report and the surveillance of

102
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,520
Speaker 4: the US senators is another question that should be asked.

103
00:06:54,320 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 4: Markings indicate that the FBI Washington Field Off. This was

104
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 4: doing this during the Biden administration. This also means that

105
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 4: there was a team involved as well. An FBISSA manages

106
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:15,679
Speaker 4: investigative teams and approves the reports that we now are seeing.

107
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 4: Toll analysis, as I mentioned, is used to analyze cellular

108
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 4: data and the call details for federal probes. This is

109
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:29,760
Speaker 4: a highly revealing investigative tool. It exploits all the patterns

110
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:34,400
Speaker 4: of the targets or the people involved in the communication investigation,

111
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 4: and it also is incredibly invasive because it would look

112
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 4: at the location data of those senators that were being

113
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:48,680
Speaker 4: spied on. Now, several of these senators decided to have

114
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:52,480
Speaker 4: a press conference that were the targets that were spied on.

115
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:55,520
Speaker 4: Senator Grassley was the first to speak, and I want

116
00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:57,560
Speaker 4: to play it for you. Listen to what they had

117
00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 4: to say that we.

118
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 5: Can find the solicitation of these telephone records, which I

119
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:13,240
Speaker 5: think emphasizes the political weaponization that was behind all this effort.

120
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:20,080
Speaker 5: And we're still getting more information, but we've released some

121
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:23,800
Speaker 5: records today and I'll let Senator Johnson take over from here,

122
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,920
Speaker 5: and then each one of you collegues can join in

123
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,240
Speaker 5: when you want to whatever you want to say.

124
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 6: First of all, I want to thank Sander Grassley. It

125
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 6: is because of his relentless advocacy for whistleblowers that a

126
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,520
Speaker 6: lot of this information is servicing right now. We wouldn't

127
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,959
Speaker 6: know about the list of one hundred Republican entities that

128
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 6: were targeted by Jack Smith Arctic Frost's investigation. I don't

129
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,439
Speaker 6: think we know about this as well, So we need whistleblowers.

130
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,440
Speaker 6: I think Dan Bongino and folks of the FBI they

131
00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,080
Speaker 6: don't know where all the records are hidden. They still don't.

132
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:59,960
Speaker 6: They're not necessarily getting huncent cooperation. But this is outrage

133
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,280
Speaker 6: what has happened. I just want to give you a

134
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:05,560
Speaker 6: timeline this. I think you've already got the the FBI

135
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:09,000
Speaker 6: sheet that shows the number of members of Congress that

136
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:15,040
Speaker 6: were targeted Representative Kelly Sanatra's, Graham Haggerty, Holly Sullivan, Tuberville, myself,

137
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:19,840
Speaker 6: Santa Lummis, and Blackburny. This memo was dated September of

138
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 6: twenty twenty three. To put it all into context, the

139
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:26,600
Speaker 6: mar Lago raid occurred in August of twenty twenty two.

140
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 6: Jack Smith announced the indictments against President Trump in August

141
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:35,200
Speaker 6: of twenty twenty three, so this is almost two months later.

142
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 6: They're casting this net, this fishing accident expedition against members

143
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 6: of the Senate in the House. Again, I've been investigating

144
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 6: this with Sanata Grassley. This doesn't surprise me, but it

145
00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 6: should shock every American of what the Bide administration has done.

146
00:09:58,559 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 6: And by the way, this is the first time I

147
00:09:59,880 --> 00:10:02,439
Speaker 6: was targeted by the FBI under the Obama administration. The

148
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 6: same thing happened to both Sender Grassley and I as

149
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:09,120
Speaker 6: part of the Foreign Foreign Influenced Task Force. We were

150
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:13,480
Speaker 6: giving a com A briefing to try and convince us

151
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:17,000
Speaker 6: that the Hunter Biden laptop was no big deal, basically

152
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,960
Speaker 6: trying to throw us off the track. So this is

153
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 6: major corruption just being revealed inside the Obama and Biden department.

154
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:29,040
Speaker 6: Justine the FBI and I'll turn it over to guest

155
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:32,559
Speaker 6: Senator Haggerty, who's one of the individuals. Again, none of

156
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,720
Speaker 6: us were subject to targets this investigation. There's no predicate,

157
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,840
Speaker 6: there's no reason for this other than efficient expedition, which

158
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:41,360
Speaker 6: again should outrage and shock every American.

159
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 7: Senator Haggarty, thank you, Senator Johnson and Chairman Grassley, thank you.

160
00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:48,240
Speaker 7: For your leadership in making this happen. This is an

161
00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 7: extraordinary revelation that just took place this afternoon. My colleagues

162
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:54,600
Speaker 7: and I found out all of US Republicans by the way,

163
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,880
Speaker 7: that we replaced under investigation by this FBI under the

164
00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:01,640
Speaker 7: Joe Biden FBI that was led, I presume by Jack

165
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:04,520
Speaker 7: Smith and his predecessors. This isn't the first time that

166
00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:07,680
Speaker 7: it's happened, though Senator Johnson just mentioned this. I served

167
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:11,040
Speaker 7: on the Trump transition team in Trump Tower in twenty sixteen.

168
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:15,160
Speaker 7: Senator Blackburn was vice chair of the transition committee then.

169
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,800
Speaker 7: As we're probably a dozen or more members of Congress

170
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,439
Speaker 7: to think that we were all surveilled back then by

171
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:25,079
Speaker 7: the Obama FBI. This corruption to run deep, runs deep,

172
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:28,720
Speaker 7: and it's gone on for far too long. And the

173
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,080
Speaker 7: fact that it's happened here again, the fact that they

174
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,320
Speaker 7: are looking at our records in twenty twenty three sitting

175
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 7: members of the United States Senate. Again, the only thing

176
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,200
Speaker 7: that we have in common, the only thing that common

177
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,600
Speaker 7: in this entire list, is that we're all Republicans. They've

178
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 7: decided to come after us. This is as partisan as

179
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 7: it gets. The FBI and the corruption's running. There has

180
00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:48,080
Speaker 7: to be cleared out. Thank god we have Cash Betel

181
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:51,080
Speaker 7: and Dan Bongino there. This has to be addressed, it

182
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,760
Speaker 7: has to be resolved. It needs to happen today.

183
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:59,679
Speaker 8: What we know is this that the FBI under Joe

184
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:05,960
Speaker 8: Biden and under Barack Obama, that they exercised activity that

185
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:11,679
Speaker 8: they had no authority to exercise. And as Senator Haggardy mentioned,

186
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:15,679
Speaker 8: we know what they did in twenty sixteen to the

187
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 8: Trump transition team. And now we find out that after

188
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:26,840
Speaker 8: the mar A Lago raid, after the indictment of President Trump,

189
00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:34,280
Speaker 8: they surveil US people who support President Trump, members who

190
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:39,320
Speaker 8: are all Republicans. But it shows you how out of

191
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:46,079
Speaker 8: control and rotten to the core and politicized the FBI

192
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 8: had become, and how they had absolutely no problem at

193
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 8: all whatsoever with political weaponization. We appreciate the information we've

194
00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:01,640
Speaker 8: gotten today. We look forward to their investigation on this.

195
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:06,880
Speaker 4: You just heard from many of those that were targeted

196
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:11,360
Speaker 4: by the FBI. As you heard Bill Haggerty say, we

197
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:16,000
Speaker 4: are sitting members of Congress, and by the way, we

198
00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:18,679
Speaker 4: now have learned it's not just senators. There was also

199
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 4: a representative that had their private communications tracked by the

200
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:27,920
Speaker 4: former Special Council Jack Smith under the Biden administration. The

201
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:33,720
Speaker 4: FBI Director Cash Bettel, also revealing files obtained by Fox

202
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:37,760
Speaker 4: News show that Smith, in his official capacity at the

203
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:41,240
Speaker 4: Department of Justice, as he investigated Donald Trump and the

204
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:44,960
Speaker 4: events of January sixth, twenty twenty one, decided to not

205
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:47,679
Speaker 4: only track the phone calls of Lindsey Graham, Marshall Blackburn,

206
00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:51,720
Speaker 4: Ron Johnson, Josh Holly, Cynthia Loomis, Bill Haggerty, Dan Sullivan,

207
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:56,200
Speaker 4: Tommy Tuverville, but also we now have learned Republican Representative

208
00:13:56,480 --> 00:14:01,520
Speaker 4: Mike Kelly of Pennsylvania. The alarming doctor document revealing that

209
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:06,880
Speaker 4: Smith and his Arctic Frost team had subpoena telephone providers

210
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:11,920
Speaker 4: for the lawmakers records in twenty twenty three, was recently.

211
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:12,840
Speaker 3: Discovered by Patel.

212
00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:17,200
Speaker 4: Patel confirmed the legitimacy of the findings in an ex post, writing,

213
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:21,640
Speaker 4: we recently uncovered proof that phone records of US lawmakers

214
00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:26,320
Speaker 4: were sees for political purposes. That abuse of power ends now.

215
00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:30,680
Speaker 4: Under my leadership, the FBI will deliver truth and accountability

216
00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:35,640
Speaker 4: and never again be weaponized against the American people. That

217
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:39,240
Speaker 4: abuse of power ends now, it seems to be the

218
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 4: mantra unfortunately that is needed by this administration to make

219
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:48,440
Speaker 4: sure that these bad actors are exposed and rooted out. Finally,

220
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:51,040
Speaker 4: you also heard one other thing that was really important

221
00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:55,320
Speaker 4: that was mentioned there. We need listle blowers. You heard

222
00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:58,760
Speaker 4: that from Senator Johnson. He is asking for others to

223
00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,360
Speaker 4: come forward that may not about abuse of power that

224
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 4: was happening in the deep State and letting them know

225
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:08,080
Speaker 4: there's a safe place to bring it. Bongino, we also

226
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 4: know brief the impact of the lawmakers on Monday afternoon

227
00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:14,960
Speaker 4: and said that it is a disgrace that he's having

228
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:18,280
Speaker 4: to sit there and show what he has found. It

229
00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:20,400
Speaker 4: is a disgrace that I have to stand on Capitol

230
00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 4: Hill and reveal this that the FBI was once weaponized

231
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 4: to track the private communications of US lawmakers for political purposes.

232
00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 4: That era is over. Several of the senators who have

233
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:37,640
Speaker 4: allegedly been spot on not only spoke at the press

234
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:40,480
Speaker 4: conference which you just heard, but said that they are

235
00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:45,080
Speaker 4: also going to be looking into this from a congressional standpoint,

236
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:48,800
Speaker 4: And to put it just an overall perspective for you,

237
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:52,840
Speaker 4: Senator Holly called Smith's actions not only an abuse of power,

238
00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:58,000
Speaker 4: beyond Watergate, beyond j. Egger Hoover, one that directly strikes

239
00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:02,080
Speaker 4: he said at the Constitution, the separation of powers and

240
00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:06,080
Speaker 4: the First Amendment. And thank goodness that President Donald Trump

241
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:09,480
Speaker 4: has put great men in charge of the FBI to

242
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:12,520
Speaker 4: root out this pure evil that is in sight.

243
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:13,160
Speaker 3: Of it now.

244
00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:18,120
Speaker 4: Story number two, The FBI Director Cash Pttel has fired

245
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:23,640
Speaker 4: agents involved in tracking the phone calls of eight Republican

246
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:28,080
Speaker 4: senators and a congressman as part of the former Special

247
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:34,680
Speaker 4: Counsel Jack Smith's investigation, a sham investigation into President Donald J.

248
00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:42,160
Speaker 4: Trump communication records belonging to GOP Senators Lindsey Graham, Marsha Blackburn,

249
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 4: Ron Johnson, Josh Hawley, Cynthia Loomis, Bill Haggerty, Dan Sullivan,

250
00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:53,640
Speaker 4: Tommy Tuberville, and Representative Mike Kelly. We know now for

251
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:58,840
Speaker 4: a fact, we're handed over to Smith's Arctic Frost's team

252
00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:04,760
Speaker 4: after they subpoened major phone companies in twenty twenty three.

253
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:09,719
Speaker 4: The fact was unknown to the public until this week,

254
00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:14,440
Speaker 4: when Cash Bettel, the FBI director, saying he discovered the

255
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:18,560
Speaker 4: files hidden in a lock box that was placed in

256
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:22,080
Speaker 4: a vault in a cyber place where no one can

257
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:24,600
Speaker 4: see or search these files.

258
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:27,440
Speaker 3: The FBI director saying this.

259
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:31,320
Speaker 9: It in a lock box, put that lock box in

260
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:34,800
Speaker 9: a vault, and then put that vault in a cyber

261
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:37,720
Speaker 9: place where no one can see or search these files.

262
00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:42,399
Speaker 9: They're called a restricted access and prohibited access. Restricted access

263
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:45,119
Speaker 9: means some people get to see it. Prohibited access you

264
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:46,520
Speaker 9: put it in there when you want to hide it

265
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 9: from the world, and that takes the authorization of the

266
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:51,639
Speaker 9: Attorney General and the director of the FBI. So not

267
00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:54,239
Speaker 9: only did they weaponize this law enforcement, but when we

268
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:55,840
Speaker 9: got in there, and when I got in as the

269
00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 9: FBI director, from my experience as rushing Gate, I knew

270
00:17:58,080 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 9: where to look and what rooms to open and what

271
00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:02,240
Speaker 9: to to kick down. And that's what we did. We

272
00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:06,440
Speaker 9: found this information to expose to politicization by Jacksmith and

273
00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 9: the prior Department of Justice. I mean, just think about it.

274
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:13,399
Speaker 9: Eight city United States senators phone records were gathered in

275
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:16,800
Speaker 9: subpoena through the grand jury process, and it was buried

276
00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:19,440
Speaker 9: and wormholed. It was the hope that no one would

277
00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:21,520
Speaker 9: find it. So we're just scratching the surface here, but

278
00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 9: accountability is coming. We are finding every single person involved.

279
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:28,760
Speaker 9: We will not leave a single room locked. We will

280
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,840
Speaker 9: go in through all the prohibited access requirements and we

281
00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:34,199
Speaker 9: will find the material and show the American public like

282
00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:37,240
Speaker 9: we have done in this FBI more transformative and transparent

283
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:39,680
Speaker 9: than any in the US history, to bring accountability to

284
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:41,520
Speaker 9: the American people. And we were working with our partners

285
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:44,840
Speaker 9: in Congress, who should be furious at the prior administration's

286
00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:49,119
Speaker 9: leadership and weaponization in singular politicization of law enforcement. The

287
00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:51,800
Speaker 9: American public sees what we're doing, Sean with the statue

288
00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:53,440
Speaker 9: just right off in the beginning. They see what we're

289
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:58,040
Speaker 9: doing here to unseal the vault and show the world

290
00:18:58,119 --> 00:18:59,560
Speaker 9: how the deep state actually.

291
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:03,960
Speaker 4: Operated cashptel, making it clear this is the beginning, not

292
00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:06,520
Speaker 4: the end. And if you go back and you actually

293
00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 4: look at what he said quote you put it in

294
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:11,760
Speaker 4: there and when you want to hide it from the world,

295
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:16,879
Speaker 4: and that takes the authorization of the Attorney General and

296
00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:20,040
Speaker 4: the director of the FBI. So not only did they

297
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:24,120
Speaker 4: weaponize this law enforcement, but when we got in there,

298
00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:27,720
Speaker 4: and when I got to in as the FBI director,

299
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:31,919
Speaker 4: from my experience as Russia Gate, I knew where to

300
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,480
Speaker 4: look and what rooms to open and what doors to

301
00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 4: knock down and that is what we did. So if

302
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:40,200
Speaker 4: you want to know why the President of the United

303
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:43,800
Speaker 4: States of America decided to pick Casptel to do this job.

304
00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:45,959
Speaker 3: It is exactly for this reason.

305
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:49,040
Speaker 4: And it goes back to what else he had to say, saying, quote,

306
00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:56,000
Speaker 4: we found this information to expose the politicalization by Jack Smith, member,

307
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:59,080
Speaker 4: this guy in charge of special counsel, weaponizing our government

308
00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:03,119
Speaker 4: to go after Donald Trump and the prior Department of Justice,

309
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:07,880
Speaker 4: he added, before revealing that he fired the agents who

310
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:15,080
Speaker 4: facilitated the secret investigations into sitting US law makers. Now

311
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:17,800
Speaker 4: Holly by the Way Center. Holly, one of the senators

312
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:22,360
