WEBVTT - Trump Destruction 0:00:10.840 --> 0:00:16.120 You are entering the Freedom Hunt. Former FBI director Comey 0:00:16.280 --> 0:00:19.239 had an agent of influence that he was using to 0:00:19.520 --> 0:00:21.919 coax the media to go in certain directions and to 0:00:22.040 --> 0:00:24.599 fight against the Trump administration. We'll get into that. Plus 0:00:25.120 --> 0:00:28.320 we know that Rue Giuliani gave quite an interview last night. 0:00:28.440 --> 0:00:30.680 What are the Democrats trying to make of it? And 0:00:30.720 --> 0:00:33.800 where does the defense of this administration go from here? 0:00:34.120 --> 0:00:37.880 Plus a series of deadly plane crashes that have killed 0:00:37.920 --> 0:00:41.479 members of our military. What is happening? How can we 0:00:41.560 --> 0:00:44.959 stop it? That and more coming up. This is the 0:00:45.000 --> 0:00:48.159 buck Sexton Show, where the mission or mission is to 0:00:48.200 --> 0:00:55.680 decode what really matters with actionable intelligence. Mag No mistake, American, 0:00:55.760 --> 0:01:04.080 You're great, American Again the Buck Sexton Show begins. No, 0:01:06.319 --> 0:01:10.679 Welcome to the buck Sexton Show, DC. Freedom Hunt in 0:01:10.720 --> 0:01:13.000 effect down here in the swamp. But you see, the 0:01:13.000 --> 0:01:17.120 Freedom Hunt is now an island of sanity and and 0:01:17.280 --> 0:01:20.720 truth in the midst of the swamp. Right, So this 0:01:20.800 --> 0:01:23.400 is with all the things going on here, this is 0:01:24.120 --> 0:01:28.280 Freedom's safe haven in the midst of the swamp. The 0:01:28.319 --> 0:01:31.360 Freedom Hunt is alive and well down here, my friends. 0:01:31.959 --> 0:01:33.560 I've got a lot to talk to you about today, 0:01:33.600 --> 0:01:41.399 as I always do, but I was just flabbergasted kind 0:01:41.400 --> 0:01:46.080 of a fun word to say by the reactions to 0:01:46.240 --> 0:01:49.480 the Rudy Giuliani interview last night on on Shawn's Show, 0:01:50.920 --> 0:01:53.440 The way that the media now seems to think that 0:01:54.560 --> 0:01:59.960 they're just counting down the hours until Trump gets in diet. 0:02:00.080 --> 0:02:04.840 It's it's just not It's not going to happen. Unless 0:02:04.880 --> 0:02:07.840 Trump gets really bad legal advice and they can jam 0:02:07.920 --> 0:02:10.880 him up with a process crime of some kind. It's 0:02:10.880 --> 0:02:15.000 not gonna happen. But there is a mass delusion that 0:02:15.080 --> 0:02:19.400 has taken hold in Democrat precincts across the country, and 0:02:19.480 --> 0:02:23.600 certainly in the newsrooms of most of the mainstream media outlets. 0:02:23.600 --> 0:02:26.239 But before we get to that Juliana Juliani interview, because 0:02:26.240 --> 0:02:27.480 I know it was last night, a lot have you 0:02:27.520 --> 0:02:30.440 heard about it. I have a different take on much 0:02:30.480 --> 0:02:33.760 of it. Part of it is that, like I'm a 0:02:33.760 --> 0:02:37.720 board and raised New Yorker, Giuliani was there on nine 0:02:37.760 --> 0:02:42.279 eleven and did things that he will be forever remembered 0:02:42.440 --> 0:02:46.959 and honored for. I don't know if he's the best 0:02:46.960 --> 0:02:49.640 guy to be running Trump's legal team right now, but 0:02:50.440 --> 0:02:53.000 I also don't know who else would step forward and 0:02:53.000 --> 0:02:57.800 do it. One of the important lessons that anyone watching 0:02:57.919 --> 0:03:01.240 all of this, this circuit surround Trump would have to 0:03:01.280 --> 0:03:04.600 take from it is that they want to take down 0:03:05.120 --> 0:03:08.120 even those who are just trying to make sure that 0:03:08.160 --> 0:03:11.480 the President of the United States has his rights respected 0:03:12.720 --> 0:03:16.600 and and in defending his constitutional prerogatives. They'll take down 0:03:16.800 --> 0:03:19.640 that person. You don't have to be a part of 0:03:19.680 --> 0:03:21.720 the Trump campaign for them to want to come after 0:03:21.760 --> 0:03:24.080 you. You You don't have to be one of his political appointees. 0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:27.799 If you're just a lawyer willing to stand up and say, 0:03:27.840 --> 0:03:33.000 hold on a second, what kind of completely crazy stazzi 0:03:33.320 --> 0:03:38.680 like police state tactics are the Democrats engaged in here. 0:03:38.720 --> 0:03:41.240 I saw the report today about how you know, maybe 0:03:41.440 --> 0:03:45.680 maybe Cohen's phone call uh to the White House was 0:03:45.720 --> 0:03:50.120 picked up under surveillance. This is serious stuff. An active 0:03:50.160 --> 0:03:53.680 wire tap on it on the president's lawyer, my friends, 0:03:54.520 --> 0:03:56.720 and this are oh, there are crimes, crimes. Oh, I'm 0:03:56.720 --> 0:04:00.480 sorry they're now authorizing wired because they think maybe there 0:04:00.520 --> 0:04:06.960 was a campaign finance violation. You know, your mind, because 0:04:07.000 --> 0:04:10.360 you're you and I are ethical people, your mind wants 0:04:10.400 --> 0:04:12.560 to go to a place of they can't they can't 0:04:12.560 --> 0:04:17.960 be serious. Oh no, no, they're entirely serious because they 0:04:17.960 --> 0:04:20.120 don't care that it is unfair. They don't care that 0:04:20.200 --> 0:04:25.920 it's hurting the entire country. And then it's completely dishonest 0:04:26.240 --> 0:04:30.719 and disproportionate to what kinds of powers and authorities should 0:04:30.760 --> 0:04:33.880 be used against the sitting president for given what we're 0:04:33.880 --> 0:04:38.000 talking about here campaign finance? Are you kidding me? Hillary 0:04:38.040 --> 0:04:42.680 Clinton was running a freaking global scam under the auspices 0:04:42.720 --> 0:04:46.240 of a charity. Oh, we couldn't, couldn't really dig into 0:04:46.320 --> 0:04:50.200 that one. Do do any do any of the of 0:04:50.279 --> 0:04:54.280 the intrepid journalists over at CNN or MSNBC want to 0:04:54.279 --> 0:04:55.919 have a sit down and explain to me why the 0:04:55.920 --> 0:05:00.240 Clinton Foundations money has been drying up like a ittie 0:05:00.240 --> 0:05:02.000 pool in the middle of the Sahara. Anyone want to 0:05:02.000 --> 0:05:07.840 explain that to me? Now? What a shock? But oh yeah, 0:05:07.920 --> 0:05:11.960 campaign finance, Now it's a good thing we've got, you 0:05:12.000 --> 0:05:16.120 know Elliott ness of today on the case with well 0:05:16.160 --> 0:05:24.520 it was Comey and now it's Mueller. Just crazy, just crazy. Um. 0:05:26.040 --> 0:05:28.719 But what really caught my attention today was something that 0:05:28.800 --> 0:05:35.160 I know a bit about because it's really a it's 0:05:35.160 --> 0:05:39.800 borrowed from the world of intelligence and espionage. And that 0:05:39.920 --> 0:05:42.440 is what we found out about what I would call 0:05:42.560 --> 0:05:52.760 Kobe's Jim Comey's agent of influence. Daniel Rickman was hired 0:05:52.920 --> 0:05:57.000 as a special government employee, and according to Fox here Um, 0:05:57.880 --> 0:06:03.919 between of July and February, Rickman gave multiple interviews defending 0:06:04.000 --> 0:06:09.200 Comy's handling of the Clinton email case, including the controversial 0:06:09.240 --> 0:06:12.560 decision to reopen the probe shortly before the presidential election. 0:06:13.320 --> 0:06:16.240 He was typically identified as a law professor and sometimes 0:06:16.240 --> 0:06:21.080 as a policy advisor to Coomy. Let me, let me 0:06:21.160 --> 0:06:23.159 just get into this a little bit more. And by 0:06:23.200 --> 0:06:25.440 the way, an agent of influence, you can pretty much 0:06:25.480 --> 0:06:28.440 tell what it is based on the based on the 0:06:29.040 --> 0:06:33.080 name itself. But this is somebody whose role is to 0:06:34.160 --> 0:06:39.280 mold perception, to push certain agendas. An agent of influences 0:06:39.279 --> 0:06:43.720 someone who's really working on your behalf as a propagandist. Right. 0:06:44.520 --> 0:06:48.960 It's somebody who is in a position that allows them 0:06:49.000 --> 0:06:52.120 to push on levers to bring about a certain outcome. 0:06:53.440 --> 0:06:56.479 Uh here, I mean. The Wikipedia definition is one who's 0:06:56.680 --> 0:07:01.160 uses his his or her stature to influence public opinion 0:07:01.240 --> 0:07:05.400 or decision making to produce results beneficial to the country, 0:07:05.440 --> 0:07:10.400 whose intelligence service operates the agent, right. So you know, 0:07:10.560 --> 0:07:12.640 if if you let's say, this is the perfect example 0:07:12.680 --> 0:07:16.040 the Soviets, if the Soviets as they did. By the way, 0:07:16.080 --> 0:07:18.280 they don't teach the stuff in school, but I read 0:07:18.320 --> 0:07:21.040 a lot of old books that are out of print, 0:07:21.120 --> 0:07:23.800 and you can see a lot of this stuff. The 0:07:23.880 --> 0:07:26.880 Soviets were running money to publications all over the world. 0:07:27.480 --> 0:07:32.880 The Soviets were paying journalists to push communist propaganda and 0:07:33.640 --> 0:07:37.360 by the way, in some cases at very high levels. 0:07:38.480 --> 0:07:40.520 So someone who runs a newspaper, let's say in the 0:07:40.600 --> 0:07:42.920 US or anywhere else, who's receiving money from the Soviets 0:07:42.960 --> 0:07:45.120 and who's pushing a pro Soviet line, that's an agent 0:07:45.160 --> 0:07:50.840 of influence. Comey was using this guy, Daniel Rickman, as 0:07:50.880 --> 0:07:54.680 his own personal agent of influence under the auspices of 0:07:54.760 --> 0:07:59.840 being a special government employee for the FBI. So comy, 0:08:00.000 --> 0:08:02.360 it's to have kind of in the side pocket or 0:08:02.400 --> 0:08:06.760 in the back pocket side pockets and pool reference. My bad. Uh. 0:08:06.800 --> 0:08:11.400 He gets to have this individual who has media relationships 0:08:12.360 --> 0:08:15.280 and can go out there and spread the commist line 0:08:16.080 --> 0:08:19.440 whenever he wants. You know, the FBI is not supposed 0:08:19.440 --> 0:08:21.920 to do that. It's not how it's supposed to work. 0:08:22.320 --> 0:08:25.040 FBI has a Office of Public Affairs. They have people 0:08:25.120 --> 0:08:29.560 or whatever they call it. They have people who openly 0:08:29.600 --> 0:08:35.040 interact with the media, but it's usually very, you know, 0:08:35.240 --> 0:08:38.079 very restrictive as to what they can and cannot talk about. 0:08:38.120 --> 0:08:39.679 And it's kind of all in the straight and narrow. 0:08:40.080 --> 0:08:43.240 You don't get to run your own little little side 0:08:43.240 --> 0:08:46.360 guy to the media and go do your bidding as 0:08:46.440 --> 0:08:50.240 FBI director. You've gotta be kidding me. How could anybody 0:08:50.280 --> 0:08:53.480 do this and think that this is ethical or okay? 0:08:53.520 --> 0:08:59.160 Being paid by the taxpayer, I would note, So we're 0:08:59.200 --> 0:09:04.320 seeing more as time goes on, more of what we 0:09:04.400 --> 0:09:08.240 know happened. But now we're getting greater, greater, uh greater 0:09:08.280 --> 0:09:11.560 amount of proof, and that is that some of these 0:09:11.640 --> 0:09:18.720 very senior deep state bureaucrats were clearly abusing their power 0:09:18.800 --> 0:09:23.080 and authority in in i'll be honest, somewhat creative ways 0:09:24.160 --> 0:09:27.200 in order to push a certain message to the media 0:09:27.280 --> 0:09:30.320 and to the general public with it. They weren't just 0:09:30.600 --> 0:09:35.120 running operations trying to get different journalists to think certain 0:09:35.160 --> 0:09:37.280 things and to run with certain stories, although that was 0:09:37.320 --> 0:09:39.080 certainly that was definitely a part of it. You saw 0:09:39.080 --> 0:09:42.560 that with McCabe. For example, McCabe, who's leaking stuff. Okay, 0:09:42.679 --> 0:09:45.400 the FBI, the FBI director. You start to run down 0:09:45.400 --> 0:09:47.679 a list of this stuff and it stinks to high heaven. 0:09:47.880 --> 0:09:52.480 The FBI acting director, we'll leak something and then have 0:09:52.720 --> 0:09:57.720 the the hoot spa to call the New York field 0:09:57.760 --> 0:09:59.960 office of the FBI and yell at them for the 0:10:00.080 --> 0:10:05.400 leak that he did. Comey's running this agent of influence 0:10:05.440 --> 0:10:09.280 guy Daniel Rickman, who's talking to the media and defending 0:10:09.320 --> 0:10:12.000 Comy's handling of the FBI while he's an FBI employee. 0:10:12.120 --> 0:10:16.600 Can't do that. Comey decides to take notes pass them 0:10:16.640 --> 0:10:18.760 to Rickman. Rickman's the guy who then takes them to 0:10:18.840 --> 0:10:22.240 New York Times. So Rickman was the cutout that we've 0:10:22.280 --> 0:10:23.800 been talking about. But now I say he's the agent 0:10:23.840 --> 0:10:28.280 of influence, but he was serving. He was serving an 0:10:28.400 --> 0:10:33.680 organization of one really, which was James Comey. This is 0:10:33.720 --> 0:10:37.680 the guy that we I would note, or are suffering 0:10:37.720 --> 0:10:40.680 as a nation through this nightmare of the Mueller investigation 0:10:41.000 --> 0:10:44.719 because Comey got fired because of this dirt ball. You 0:10:44.800 --> 0:10:50.120 gotta be kidding me here. We are media thinks this 0:10:50.240 --> 0:10:52.320 is great. They think they're hot on the trail. They 0:10:52.360 --> 0:10:54.280 think that it's just a matter of just a matter 0:10:54.360 --> 0:11:00.320 of of weeks, maybe months, but weeks before they finally 0:11:01.160 --> 0:11:04.000 kick at the load bearing walls of this administration and 0:11:04.120 --> 0:11:06.800 with it, the country and bring it all tumbling down. 0:11:06.880 --> 0:11:08.840 That's what they think is gonna happen. In fact, they've 0:11:08.920 --> 0:11:12.200 bet that it's going to happen. They can't go back 0:11:12.240 --> 0:11:15.240 in their minds. They've put all their chips on the table, 0:11:15.320 --> 0:11:21.880 and the Trump is gonna collapse, and they're doing everything 0:11:21.920 --> 0:11:26.480 they can to make it collapse. This is straight up politically. 0:11:26.559 --> 0:11:29.400 This is a I was saying, it's a street fight. 0:11:29.440 --> 0:11:31.920 It's true, a bar fight. True, it's a political war 0:11:32.080 --> 0:11:36.240 that we are in the midst of right now. The 0:11:36.480 --> 0:11:45.120 establishment has not decided to engage in any introspection. They're 0:11:45.120 --> 0:11:48.440 not trying to fix what they did wrong. They're not like, well, 0:11:48.559 --> 0:11:52.960 Hillary was just a crap, lousy candidate. No. No, they 0:11:53.000 --> 0:11:55.240 want payback. They want an end of this. They want 0:11:55.240 --> 0:11:58.480 their power back. It's true of the mainstream media networks. 0:11:58.480 --> 0:12:01.000 It's true the Democrat Party, It's through of the progressive 0:12:01.480 --> 0:12:06.000 elitist establishment across the board. They view Trump as a 0:12:06.040 --> 0:12:09.720 threat to their sense of self, to their power, to 0:12:09.800 --> 0:12:15.640 their money, all of it, and they're all in against him. 0:12:15.679 --> 0:12:17.680 And this is why, as much as I would like 0:12:17.720 --> 0:12:19.679 to sit here and you know, have kind of a 0:12:20.120 --> 0:12:22.880 Sunday school session and talk about how well, you know, 0:12:22.960 --> 0:12:25.800 did Trump do some naughty things, I do not care 0:12:26.840 --> 0:12:29.959 because I understand the stakes. That's not to say that 0:12:30.000 --> 0:12:32.640 I'll defend everything Trump does. I'm actually gonna we're gonna 0:12:32.679 --> 0:12:35.160 talk later on about immigration because this is the story 0:12:35.240 --> 0:12:39.240 that I can't know. It's not getting nearly enough attention, 0:12:39.280 --> 0:12:41.680 maybe because the administrations undersiege right now, but it's not 0:12:41.679 --> 0:12:44.559 getting nearly enough attention because we're not getting what was 0:12:44.600 --> 0:12:47.880 promised on that. But in the grand scheme of things, 0:12:48.440 --> 0:12:51.120 I'm still in the bunker. I'm in the trench next 0:12:51.160 --> 0:12:53.280 to Trump and all of his people because I know 0:12:53.320 --> 0:12:55.320 what the other side is trying to do. I know 0:12:55.400 --> 0:12:57.240 how they're going about it, and I know what they 0:12:57.240 --> 0:12:59.199 want if they win, and what it means for you 0:12:59.360 --> 0:13:04.120 and for me and of the country that you've got 0:13:04.240 --> 0:13:09.200 Comey going around as really the de facto general of 0:13:09.240 --> 0:13:16.319 the hashtag resistance given all of the completely unethical, slimy, 0:13:16.520 --> 0:13:20.480 self serving, self dealing stuff, that he did as FBI director. 0:13:20.520 --> 0:13:22.400 I mean, it's a big job with a lot of 0:13:22.400 --> 0:13:30.440 authority and power. That all that happened and here we 0:13:30.520 --> 0:13:32.520 are and we can't seem to get out of this. 0:13:33.679 --> 0:13:37.400 Is is a kind of awaking nightmare at this point. 0:13:37.400 --> 0:13:41.080 I mean, it really is threatening so much of what 0:13:41.160 --> 0:13:43.360 I think could be accomplished by this administration when should 0:13:43.360 --> 0:13:45.400 be good for so much of the American people. But 0:13:46.760 --> 0:13:52.640 we are facing an implacable enemy. The enemy is the 0:13:52.800 --> 0:13:57.360 progressive left with all of its redistribution and state ism 0:13:57.400 --> 0:14:02.480 and authoritarianism and as we see now, petty police state 0:14:02.520 --> 0:14:04.679 stuff too. So I'll get into some of the more 0:14:04.760 --> 0:14:07.480 some of the specifics on this when we come back. 0:14:07.679 --> 0:14:11.760 And and I the fact that Comey's lawyer is Patrick 0:14:11.800 --> 0:14:18.319 Fitzgerald is just perfect, really the most the most relentless, unethical, 0:14:18.920 --> 0:14:23.520 slimy headhunter prosecutor of the last twenty years, of all 0:14:23.600 --> 0:14:27.000 the lawyers in the country. That's who Comey wants to 0:14:27.040 --> 0:14:30.480 have his back. I wonder why some of us, by 0:14:30.520 --> 0:14:33.440 the way, have known who Fitzgerald was since even before 0:14:33.520 --> 0:14:36.360 Scooter Libby. Go back and read about the Conrad Black case. 0:14:41.600 --> 0:14:45.200 Eight four four to five lines are open Team love 0:14:45.280 --> 0:14:47.480 to hear from you. What do you think about that 0:14:47.560 --> 0:14:50.280 Giuliani interview last night? I need to I know you 0:14:50.360 --> 0:14:52.360 might have already talked to your friends about it, you know, 0:14:52.440 --> 0:14:54.240 on the way to work, or at the cooler or 0:14:54.280 --> 0:14:57.040 picking up the kids whatever. I want to know what 0:14:57.080 --> 0:14:59.040 you think, though, team, because we need to make sure 0:14:59.040 --> 0:15:02.640 that we are following this thing closely, because the stakes 0:15:02.680 --> 0:15:05.280 are being raised right now. They are They're all in 0:15:05.400 --> 0:15:18.480 on Trump's destruction. We'll be right back. I think they 0:15:18.480 --> 0:15:21.280 want to destroy the president. They want to destroy his family, 0:15:21.520 --> 0:15:23.960 they want to destroy his businesses, they want to destroy 0:15:24.040 --> 0:15:26.840 his friends, so that no billionaire and let's say fifteen 0:15:26.960 --> 0:15:28.880 years wakes up and tells his wife, you know what, 0:15:28.920 --> 0:15:31.520 the country's broken and only I can fix it. His 0:15:31.520 --> 0:15:33.600 wife will say, are you crazy? Did you see what 0:15:33.680 --> 0:15:38.440 happened to Donald Trump and everybody around him? Marcat Puto 0:15:38.760 --> 0:15:41.640 is one I'm sorry, Mike, and Puto is one hundred 0:15:42.040 --> 0:15:46.800 percent correct. That is exactly what's going on. You have 0:15:46.840 --> 0:15:50.800 to remember, it's it's a trauma. The left has been 0:15:50.840 --> 0:15:54.480 triggered here. It's not enough for them to even just 0:15:54.640 --> 0:15:59.440 get Trump removed from office, maybe even prosecuted after moved 0:15:59.480 --> 0:16:04.600 from office. That's not enough. They have to stop another 0:16:04.720 --> 0:16:09.720 Trump like figure from ever emerging in their lifetimes because 0:16:09.760 --> 0:16:12.720 they have really been thrown for a loop here. They've 0:16:12.760 --> 0:16:18.280 been traumatized, they've been triggered by Trump, and they want 0:16:18.560 --> 0:16:23.680 to use this, uh, this upstart. You know, they want 0:16:23.720 --> 0:16:28.160 to change the narrative so that he's a cautionary tale 0:16:28.240 --> 0:16:32.000 for anyone else who would ever think of challenging this establishment. 0:16:32.040 --> 0:16:33.560 You want to talk about a deep state, A deep 0:16:33.600 --> 0:16:38.560 state's gonna be like twenty tho leagues deep if they 0:16:38.920 --> 0:16:43.520 actually get their way here. Think about the think about 0:16:43.520 --> 0:16:46.880 what the president is. You know, we don't forget things, right, 0:16:46.960 --> 0:16:50.040 just like we didn't forget that they the media lied 0:16:50.080 --> 0:16:52.400 and covered up for Bill Clinton, and he lied under oath, 0:16:52.440 --> 0:16:54.280 and the law wasn't really the law then, and there's 0:16:54.280 --> 0:16:56.120 all these other examples that we can talk about since 0:16:56.160 --> 0:16:58.960 then too. If Bill Clinton is in my lifetime, certainly 0:16:58.960 --> 0:17:02.440 one that we will never forget, well, we're also not 0:17:02.480 --> 0:17:05.600 gonna forget. No one's gonna forget any time soon that 0:17:06.400 --> 0:17:12.040 the FBI and some other as yet identified members of 0:17:12.080 --> 0:17:15.320 the senior hours of the intelligence community, and we've identified 0:17:15.359 --> 0:17:17.199 some of them right because they're coming forward talking, but 0:17:18.119 --> 0:17:22.280 they were engaged in a campaign to stop and then 0:17:22.400 --> 0:17:25.919 undo the Trump presidency. And if they're sick, and if 0:17:25.920 --> 0:17:28.560 they're successful after the fact, think about the message that 0:17:28.560 --> 0:17:32.520 that sends. People will talk about the institutions and our 0:17:32.520 --> 0:17:36.040 Trump is so dangerous to institutions. What does it say 0:17:36.080 --> 0:17:38.359 when our institutions want to subvert the will of the 0:17:38.400 --> 0:17:42.800 American people throw the election upside down all of a sudden, 0:17:42.960 --> 0:17:47.880 it doesn't matter. You don't get to really choose. That's 0:17:47.880 --> 0:17:51.159 a scary country, folks. And at that point do I 0:17:51.200 --> 0:17:55.639 even tell people, Yeah, go out and vote. Sure, American democracy. 0:17:55.920 --> 0:17:57.880 I know we're a public. Don't send me the emails. 0:17:58.080 --> 0:18:03.760 American democracy is the best us. Well maybe it was, 0:18:05.080 --> 0:18:07.040 but you want to talk about what we are losing now, 0:18:07.520 --> 0:18:11.680 all the hysteria over Russia's interference in our election. Meanwhile, 0:18:12.560 --> 0:18:14.760 people that are supposed to be public servants of our 0:18:14.800 --> 0:18:17.040 government and the media that are supposed to be serving 0:18:17.040 --> 0:18:23.320 the purpose of informing the public there overturning an election. 0:18:24.119 --> 0:18:27.119 That is what we are seeing happening here. This is 0:18:27.160 --> 0:18:30.160 why they have all these pathetic justifications for all. Look, 0:18:30.200 --> 0:18:32.880 it might be campaign finance, or it might be Russia collusion, 0:18:32.960 --> 0:18:37.919 or it might be doesn't mean the crime that Trump, theoretically, 0:18:38.040 --> 0:18:41.159 with no evidence, may have committed to justify all these 0:18:41.280 --> 0:18:44.760 changes every week. I mean, it's like Trump doesn't even 0:18:44.760 --> 0:18:46.480 have time to eat at cheeseburger because I guess he's 0:18:46.480 --> 0:19:00.240 just committing crimes all the time. They're crazy. He's holding 0:19:00.240 --> 0:19:04.840 the line for America, Buck Sexton his back. I'm never 0:19:04.840 --> 0:19:07.560 gonna work on a Republican campaign again unless somebody legally 0:19:07.600 --> 0:19:10.840 indemnifies me clearly these lawsuits after the fact, or the 0:19:10.840 --> 0:19:14.040 new democratic strategy, when you lose, you still win. I 0:19:14.040 --> 0:19:16.919 don't think anybody should work on a Republican campaign again 0:19:17.240 --> 0:19:20.080 unless they're legally indemnified. I think if you do, you're crazy. 0:19:22.640 --> 0:19:25.439 Michael Capputo really hitting some very important notes here on 0:19:25.480 --> 0:19:28.880 TV in the last twenty four hours or so. How 0:19:28.920 --> 0:19:32.760 many stories do you see about people that the Mueller 0:19:32.840 --> 0:19:39.160 probe is basically bankrupting? Michael Michael Capputo is a former 0:19:39.200 --> 0:19:42.240 aide to Donald From's presidential campaign. I mean, he understands, 0:19:42.600 --> 0:19:44.639 you know, there's a real cost to all of this 0:19:45.920 --> 0:19:48.720 to a bunch of journalists out there, and I'm surrounded 0:19:48.720 --> 0:19:50.679 by them here in d c They're all over the place. 0:19:51.480 --> 0:19:57.159 See them walking on the streets. Swamp creatures are plenty. Uh. 0:19:57.200 --> 0:19:58.919 I feel like I'm doing some kind of a you know, 0:19:58.960 --> 0:20:02.080 wild Kingdom tour here, or I'm like, oh there, I'll say, 0:20:02.400 --> 0:20:07.360 saying end journalists, MSN bas creeping through the toll grass. 0:20:08.560 --> 0:20:14.119 But truth is, they don't care. I don't know. I 0:20:14.160 --> 0:20:15.919 don't know how much of its ignorance, but I know 0:20:16.000 --> 0:20:18.840 for sure they don't care that people like Michael Flynn 0:20:18.840 --> 0:20:21.360 are losing their life savings and their lives and their livelihood, 0:20:21.359 --> 0:20:27.600 their freedom for what it's a destroy Trump operation anyone 0:20:27.640 --> 0:20:30.200 near him. Now, I gotta be honest. I was thinking 0:20:30.200 --> 0:20:32.760 about this the other day, at this point in time, 0:20:32.800 --> 0:20:34.760 I mean, are there many people that I think would 0:20:34.760 --> 0:20:40.320 be a more adept on his or her feet brawler 0:20:40.440 --> 0:20:42.320 with the media on behalf of Trump than me have 0:20:42.440 --> 0:20:44.919 given the opportunity. No, I think that I think I 0:20:44.920 --> 0:20:49.160 can hold my own with literally anybody that said would 0:20:49.160 --> 0:20:50.720 there be a part of me? And it's like, well, 0:20:50.760 --> 0:20:52.199 you don't want to get married, so you don't want 0:20:52.240 --> 0:20:54.040 to start a family, and I don't. I don't. I 0:20:54.040 --> 0:20:56.800 don't know if I I don't know if I jump 0:20:56.880 --> 0:20:59.080 into the breach right now. I'm just being honest with you. 0:20:59.119 --> 0:21:00.600 I mean, there's a part of the love to tell you. 0:21:00.600 --> 0:21:03.879 Oh yeah, you know, m hmm, what so I so 0:21:03.920 --> 0:21:07.080 I could drown in legal bills. You you joined Trump 0:21:07.080 --> 0:21:09.280 and so you must haven't you must have information? No, 0:21:09.320 --> 0:21:12.359 I have it. I'm just trying to serve my country right, 0:21:12.359 --> 0:21:18.040 trying to do my thing. So yeah, it's it's really 0:21:19.080 --> 0:21:21.920 disquiet ng. It's a polite way of saying, messed up. 0:21:22.760 --> 0:21:26.480 What's going on right now? It really is people are 0:21:27.240 --> 0:21:31.760 being treated terribly, very shabbily by those who are supposed 0:21:31.800 --> 0:21:35.320 to be the the if not the guaranteurs, at least 0:21:35.440 --> 0:21:41.159 supporting our civil liberties and individual rights, you know, the 0:21:41.160 --> 0:21:44.720 the fourth of state. It's really a fifth column, and 0:21:44.880 --> 0:21:48.679 it's it's a disgrace. And Computa is totally right. By 0:21:48.720 --> 0:21:50.719 the way, this is part of a of a larger 0:21:51.600 --> 0:21:56.720 theme that you see where somehow we're not actually having 0:21:56.760 --> 0:22:00.399 political debates anymore. It's just how do I get how 0:22:00.400 --> 0:22:03.240 do I ruin your reputation? If if you're a Democrat, 0:22:03.800 --> 0:22:06.399 will you wake up saying yourself, your Democrat, who's playing 0:22:06.440 --> 0:22:09.760 this game of power politics? You're not making the case 0:22:09.880 --> 0:22:12.919 for how terrible Trump is doing in the economy. Economy 0:22:13.000 --> 0:22:17.080 is good. Good luck with that, right. Just imagine if 0:22:17.080 --> 0:22:21.000 we had had somebody with Trump's approach to say capitalism 0:22:21.040 --> 0:22:24.320 and free enterprise instead of Obama after the financial crisis, 0:22:24.480 --> 0:22:27.520 which was not of the Republican parties, making, by the way, 0:22:27.560 --> 0:22:32.480 one of the great myths that the media perpetrated. Yeah, 0:22:32.720 --> 0:22:36.640 there was a symbiotic relationship. Just a little little trip 0:22:36.640 --> 0:22:38.240 down memory lane if you don't mind with me for 0:22:38.240 --> 0:22:41.800 a second. Here there was a symbiotic relationship between government 0:22:41.840 --> 0:22:48.000 policy and Wall Street shark like behavior with the whole 0:22:48.000 --> 0:22:52.600 mortgage meltdown without the loosening of lending standards based on 0:22:52.640 --> 0:22:55.639 who wants to guess? Why did we have decades of 0:22:55.840 --> 0:22:58.439 looser and looser lending standards in this country? Sure you 0:22:58.440 --> 0:23:01.199 know the ownership society in the else how did it start? 0:23:02.480 --> 0:23:05.880 Community Reinvestment Act stretches back to the late sixties early seventies. 0:23:05.880 --> 0:23:09.040 I believe the cr A. What was the big problem 0:23:09.080 --> 0:23:10.600 with the c r A or what was the c 0:23:10.720 --> 0:23:13.639 r A trying to address? Oh, the disparities and lending 0:23:13.680 --> 0:23:18.200 among um different ethnic groups in this country. Who was 0:23:18.200 --> 0:23:21.080 getting loans and who wasn't became a social justice issue, 0:23:21.119 --> 0:23:23.199 became a racial justice issue. Gotta get rid of the 0:23:24.000 --> 0:23:27.000 you know, using of Phyco scores and all the rest 0:23:27.000 --> 0:23:32.000 of it. Gotta gotta change the system. It's not the 0:23:32.000 --> 0:23:34.439 system wasn't fair. The system based on numbers and and 0:23:34.560 --> 0:23:37.840 background of payment and all that wasn't fair. And then 0:23:37.880 --> 0:23:40.000 they kept going and going, and then Wall Street saw 0:23:40.040 --> 0:23:42.800 an opportunity. And look, people work on Wall Street to 0:23:42.840 --> 0:23:45.760 make money, right, They're not actually trying to here cancer 0:23:45.840 --> 0:23:49.479 or save the world. And that's how we got that monster, 0:23:49.920 --> 0:23:54.639 uh that almost took down the whole economy, global economy, 0:23:55.000 --> 0:23:57.239 but it was there was a huge social justice and 0:23:57.320 --> 0:24:00.159 government intervention component to the meltdown. Without it, it it was 0:24:00.200 --> 0:24:03.560 not possible. And this is a story that is not told. 0:24:03.680 --> 0:24:05.720 There's no mention of this in the movie The Big Short. 0:24:05.880 --> 0:24:08.639 There's no mention of this, and most of the major 0:24:09.280 --> 0:24:14.080 you know, major pop culture, uh, nonfiction treatments of this 0:24:16.080 --> 0:24:20.640 that under Clinton, they were suing banks that were like, well, 0:24:20.640 --> 0:24:22.119 we're not gonna make this long because we think it's 0:24:22.160 --> 0:24:24.560 a bad loan. Sorry, you gotta make more loans. It's 0:24:24.560 --> 0:24:27.160 to social justice issue. Gotta make more loans. And people 0:24:27.160 --> 0:24:30.920 you don't think, you don't think I gotta pay them back? Okay, well, 0:24:30.960 --> 0:24:33.840 how could that go bad? And then we found out. 0:24:35.920 --> 0:24:41.560 But imagine if we had Trump instead of Obama at 0:24:41.600 --> 0:24:43.680 that point in time. I think we would have recovered 0:24:43.840 --> 0:24:46.400 much more rapidly. We wouldn't have spent a trillion dollars 0:24:46.400 --> 0:24:48.480 on Democrat giveaways. There's all kinds of stuff. We could 0:24:48.480 --> 0:24:49.680 look back on it and say, wow, that would have 0:24:49.680 --> 0:24:53.760 been great. Um. But see, they don't. They don't attack 0:24:53.800 --> 0:24:57.360 Trump on the economy because as much as they want 0:24:57.359 --> 0:25:00.240 to get us all scared about China and trade wars 0:25:00.240 --> 0:25:03.560 and everything, it's just not happened. And we can see 0:25:03.720 --> 0:25:07.280 we are aware of the benefits, the economic benefits of 0:25:07.280 --> 0:25:10.320 having a Trump presidency so far, but we don't. It's 0:25:10.320 --> 0:25:12.440 not even part of the discussion. Really, I don't even 0:25:12.480 --> 0:25:15.560 hear it. If somebody asked me right now, and then 0:25:15.640 --> 0:25:18.119 this look, this goes into all the different strategies the 0:25:18.160 --> 0:25:22.680
