We'll talk about that, plus 7 00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:38,479 Speaker 1: a very bad day for Trump critic and opponent Michael 8 00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:41,280 Speaker 1: Avenati that I'm more coming up on the buck Sexton Show. 9 00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:46,280 Speaker 1: Bucks Sexton Remission, decoding the news and disseminating information with 10 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:52,480 Speaker 1: actionable intelligence.

There was no 20 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 1: collusion with Russia. There was no obstruction and none whatsoever. 21 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 1: And it was a complete and total exoneration.

To 23 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 1: be honest, it's a shame that your president has had 24 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 1: to go through this spore before I even got elected. 25 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 1: It began, and it began illegally, and hopefully somebody's gonna 26 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:20,359 Speaker 1: look at the other side. This was an illegal takedown 27 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 1: that failed, and hopefully somebody's gonna be looking at the 28 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 1: other side.

I think that's fair to say. It feels good. Right, 33 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,120 Speaker 1: it's morning in America, my friends, things feel good. Doesn't 34 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,960 Speaker 1: it take a moment, all of you, please, after all 35 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 1: we've been through together, after all the times we've had 36 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 1: to come together here on air and discuss the latest 37 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:09,800 Speaker 1: Democrat OPO efforts through the media or through Congress or whatever, 38 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 1: to say the president's a traitor, the presidents are a 39 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 1: Russian agent, he's Putin's puppet, that his family members were 40 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 1: going to prison, that this presidency's over and done with that. 41 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 1: The walls are closing in, the noose is tightening, The 42 00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: President's finished all this stuff, and we kept our heads 43 00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:35,480 Speaker 1: and we were right. We got it right. I do 44 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 1: not have to sit here and tell you guys, I'm 45 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:39,840 Speaker 1: I know. I know. I was trained as an intelligence officer, 46 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,520 Speaker 1: and I've been reading all of your messages and taking 47 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 1: your calls, and you know, I guess we all were 48 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 1: somehow fulled. We were right. A multi billion dollar media 49 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 1: apparatus was completely wrong. All the Democrat media. I mean, 50 00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 1: there are some journalists that are notable exceptions as a 51 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 1: handful of them on the left actually, but the rest 52 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 1: of them were just on board for this. What a 53 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 1: horrific hoax, a completely insane scam, and it was all 54 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 1: an effort to overturn the legitimate election results of twenty 55 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 1: sixteen Democrats. Progressives, they live in these bubbles, they have 56 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 1: these echo chambers, their snowflakes. They get triggered easily, and 57 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:34,360 Speaker 1: they could not handle that Hillary Clinton lost to Donald Trump. 58 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:39,800 Speaker 1: Everything else is just kind of filling in details when 59 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 1: push comes to shelf. That's what this is really about. 60 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 1: They can't handle losing they have to be in power. 61 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 1: They don't understand who they are in a world were 62 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 1: their views and their sense of self and their own 63 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 1: importance is not being magnified by the media and government 64 00:04:56,400 --> 00:05:00,279 Speaker 1: apparatus on a daily basis. Anyone who challenges how mark 65 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 1: or wise or important they are by confronting some of 66 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 1: their worldview, by refusing to play by their rules, by 67 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:15,400 Speaker 1: refusing to bend the knee, Anyone who does that is 68 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:17,919 Speaker 1: a threat to them that they cannot abide. And President 69 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 1: Trump is the biggest one that they have ever come across. Exonerated, 70 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:28,480 Speaker 1: my friends, no evidence to charge the President United States 71 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 1: with after two years of this, after all the reckless speculation, 72 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 1: and we knew it was reckless. And I'm going to 73 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 1: get into some of the details and some of the 74 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 1: legal specifics here about I think that Muller showed a 75 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:44,920 Speaker 1: little bit of his hand here. I do not think 76 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 1: that Muller's somebody that everybody should be giving applause to 77 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 1: over this just because he didn't indict the president or 78 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:53,920 Speaker 1: didn't try to indict the president. I want to get 79 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 1: into some of the specifics. We all know the Democrats 80 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,160 Speaker 1: are not going to accept this. They want to move 81 00:05:58,160 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 1: on to other things. They want to move on to 82 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 1: their investigations. They're lying now, but what they were saying 83 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 1: all along and what was predicted by their side, But oh, 84 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:15,479 Speaker 1: no surprise here. They They also want to claim that 85 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 1: it's because Barr is the hand picked attorney general. Right. 86 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,920 Speaker 1: They will undermine the system. I thought undermining the system 87 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:27,160 Speaker 1: was bad. Well, they'll undermine whatever they want, whatever they can, 88 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 1: if it serves their purposes. CNN claiming that this does 89 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:38,479 Speaker 1: not exonerate him is a farce. But CNN has turned 90 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:41,719 Speaker 1: into a farce. And that's just where I wanted to 91 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 1: take a moment, because we've been We've been in this, 92 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 1: We've been on this ride together for two years now. 93 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 1: I was opposed to the appointment of the Special Counsel 94 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 1: from day one. You know that I have thought all 95 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 1: along that this was an exercise and political retribution. The 96 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 1: weaponization of my employer in the intelligence community, the FBI, 97 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 1: the CIA, the weaponization of Faiza, the abuse of government authority, 98 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 1: the real collusion between media and the Democrat Party and 99 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 1: Democrat operatives in the FBI, the deep state, which is 100 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 1: very real, all of the efforts, by the way that 101 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 1: the other side made to hide the truth from us 102 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 1: to lie. Took over a year to find out that 103 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 1: the dossier was funded by Hillary Clinton. Why is that? 104 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 1: Because people were hiding the truth, but we knew. We 105 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 1: knew because we pay attention, because we're honest, and because 106 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,720 Speaker 1: we understand how this country and how this world really works. 107 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 1: We know who is on the other side. We know 108 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 1: what we face here in the opposition in this country, 109 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:59,040 Speaker 1: the length that they will go to. We understand our 110 00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 1: political enemies, and we know what they're capable of. So 111 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 1: please today, in your own way, however it is, celebrate 112 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 1: a little bit. This is a very good day, not 113 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 1: just for Trump. It's a very good day for the country. 114 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 1: Anyone who does not understand that, does not care about 115 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 1: this country. The president is not a traitor. The president 116 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:24,559 Speaker 1: in nothing wrong, and that is now confirmed. We should 117 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 1: all be happy that we can move past this, at 118 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: least those of us who are willing to face facts 119 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 1: in reality can move past this. But do take a 120 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 1: moment for yourself, team, especially for all of you who 121 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 1: have been all along so supportive of me in this 122 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 1: show and all the heat that I took and the 123 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 1: terrible things people at CNN said to me publicly and 124 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,719 Speaker 1: privately about how I was a stooge for Trump and 125 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:47,559 Speaker 1: how I was just all of that. Just remember, take 126 00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:49,440 Speaker 1: a little victory lap for yourself, even if it's just 127 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 1: in your head. We were right, they were wrong. Trump 128 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 1: is innocent. The guilty parties, my friends, are the Democrats 129 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 1: and the media. Where that coming up. I takeaway is 130 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:09,440 Speaker 1: there's a very real prospect that he may be the 131 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 1: first president in quite some time to face the real 132 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 1: prospect of jail time. Do you agree with Congressman Adam Schiff, 133 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 1: who is going to be the chairman of the House 134 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 1: Intelligence Committee, that President Trump could be indicted and possibly 135 00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 1: face jail time after he leaves office. Yes, if we 136 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:30,560 Speaker 1: do the investigations, the information is there with Fitman while 137 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:34,599 Speaker 1: Rome is burning, this president needs to be impeached. And 138 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 1: I think they're shocked that the news is tightening and 139 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:39,959 Speaker 1: that people might go to jail. You're exactly right, the 140 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:41,840 Speaker 1: rest of their lives. But do you think some people 141 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:44,079 Speaker 1: are going to wind up at jail, not just one individual, 142 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 1: but people plural? Is that what you're saying. That's my impression. Yes, 143 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:51,559 Speaker 1: it certainly looks like they are the kind of offenses 144 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:55,959 Speaker 1: that would call for impeachment hearings. Absolutely, I think he 145 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 1: can be looked at and perhaps even charged with obstruction 146 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 1: of justice. Well, I think they're all going to end 147 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:06,840 Speaker 1: up together in prison, and maybe that's he has no 148 00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 1: idea that he's going down. These people are nuts. Those 149 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 1: were That was a whole collection of mainstream media darlings, 150 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 1: most of them paid millions millions a year to be 151 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 1: imbeciles to have bought this completely implausible nearly evidence free. 152 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 1: It really is evidence free. I mean they could. They 153 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 1: faked the evidence, right, I mean, the dossier was a 154 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 1: false document, so they faked evidence. They had very little evidence. 155 00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 1: Even with the faked evidence, they weaponized the intelligence apparatus 156 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 1: against a political candidate, and the guardians of our republic, 157 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 1: you know, the the firefighters of the First Amendments, so 158 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 1: to speak, bought this stuff, hook line and sinker. They 159 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 1: just took it. They ran with it. They should be ashamed, 160 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 1: but unfortunately I know they won't be. In many cases. 161 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 1: I think it's been financially and professionally really advantageous for 162 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 1: these people. It has. It has made their ratings go up, 163 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:21,320 Speaker 1: It has pushed their careers on. CNN's ratings are you know, 164 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,720 Speaker 1: they're they're crappy compared to Fox and MSNBC in general, 165 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 1: but I'm sure they're up from CNNs even crappier ratings. 166 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:39,840 Speaker 1: We've had two years of the most deranged, overhyped, reckless 167 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:46,560 Speaker 1: speculation and propagandizing from a media that if it is 168 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 1: so left wing now and so self referential and in 169 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 1: love with itself, And I mean, I think we need 170 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,719 Speaker 1: to just build up a media from scratch, I really do. 171 00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 1: I mean, there needs to be a total rethink of 172 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:03,079 Speaker 1: what's going on with news media in this country. And 173 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 1: here we got more where that fun came from. Play 174 00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:08,960 Speaker 1: play clip two. He is going to be delivering what 175 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:11,240 Speaker 1: I think are going to be his indictments, the final indictments. 176 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 1: I would not be surprised if there were a number 177 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:15,520 Speaker 1: of indictments that's silver going to come down the pikes. 178 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:20,079 Speaker 1: There are indictments in this president's future. That's a bombshell, 179 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:24,439 Speaker 1: the bombshell, this bombshell dropped, the bombshell, bombshell accusation, this 180 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 1: BuzzFeed news report is true, then we are likely on 181 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 1: our way to possible impeachment proceedings. Man. At that point, 182 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,199 Speaker 1: we are in high crimes at misdemeanor and we are 183 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 1: in impeachment right This president needs to be impeach. Impeachment 184 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,559 Speaker 1: is the remedy. I mean, the president can't the only remedy. 185 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 1: The spirit of what Trump did is clearly treasons. This 186 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:49,959 Speaker 1: is moving into perjury, false statements, and even in a 187 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 1: potentially treason, there's outright treason. I mean, there is no question. 188 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 1: I think he's feeling the news around his neck, and 189 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 1: I think they're shocked that the news is tightening, or 190 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:01,079 Speaker 1: he feels the news is tightening. The sound of who 191 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 1: feats of all those investigations catching up with Donald Trump 192 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 1: must be loud in his ears. What a bunch of 193 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 1: psychos treason they run around saying the president of the 194 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:19,320 Speaker 1: United States is guilty of treason. No no evidence, no 195 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,080 Speaker 1: circumspection really about it either. I mean they just jump 196 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:24,719 Speaker 1: right to it. Well, you know, we're gonna get We're 197 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:28,920 Speaker 1: gonna get them. The noose is tightening. That's the That's 198 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 1: the kind of terminology they used to describe this president's future. 199 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 1: They're talking about treason. These are the things that they 200 00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:42,120 Speaker 1: were saying on air on a regular basis and clapping 201 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,360 Speaker 1: for each other, thinking that this was this was wise, 202 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 1: This was good journalism. They are a disgrace, an absolute disgrace. 203 00:13:56,600 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 1: And while I'm very much caught between two feelings here, 204 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:04,040 Speaker 1: on the one hand, I feel like it should be 205 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 1: said that, you know, they we won, and I'm happy 206 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 1: about that, and the good guys won this battle. But 207 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 1: we've been through a terrible battle that we shouldn't have 208 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:18,600 Speaker 1: had to shouldn't have had to go through, and we lost. 209 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 1: We lost people along the way, and we took losses. 210 00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 1: You know, General Flynn is still facing prison time for 211 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 1: a total setup. He should be pardoned tomorrow. Probably won't 212 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 1: be pardon tomorrow, but I do think he'll be pardoner 213 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 1: of the next month or so. That's that's what I'm 214 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:36,160 Speaker 1: hearing from my people. Which would be the right thing 215 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 1: to do. Paul Manaford, Okay, they didn't pay his taxes. 216 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 1: He should make financial restitution and you know, as time served, 217 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 1: commute sentence. Let the guy out. Let him be with 218 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:50,880 Speaker 1: his family. He's been through enough. He's been in solitary 219 00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 1: confinement for almost a year. Let the guy out. You know. 220 00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 1: Ter Paige should get a check from the federal government 221 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 1: for about the ten or fifteen million dollars. How about that, 222 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,480 Speaker 1: and there are people here who were really wronged. Maria 223 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 1: Boutina was smeared as some kind of Russian honeypot, you know, 224 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 1: as a honeypot operation where they put an attractive woman 225 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:16,720 Speaker 1: out there to try for espionage purposes. I mean, that's 226 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 1: what That's what the mainstream press said about her, based 227 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 1: on nothing. She wasn't doing that, she wasn't trading sex 228 00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 1: for favors. I think that's I'm sorry. And it's one 229 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 1: thing to try to influence policy or make friends, another 230 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 1: thing to be sleeping with people that you know. And 231 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 1: that's what they said about her. Lies. Lies. So there 232 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:40,400 Speaker 1: have been losses we've taken along the way here too, 233 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:42,120 Speaker 1: I mean, and when I say we, I just mean 234 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 1: the good people, the good side. They were willing to 235 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 1: put so much on the line here, and I think 236 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:54,280 Speaker 1: we have to enforce that there are real losses that 237 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 1: they suffer as a result of this. I mean that 238 00:15:55,800 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 1: the media cannot be trusted again. CNN is not a 239 00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 1: nonpartisan source of news. If you believe that you are 240 00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: lying to yourself or you just don't know any better, 241 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 1: CNN is the wing, the for profit wing of the 242 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 1: DNC media apparatus. That's what CNN is. MSNBC is just 243 00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:24,040 Speaker 1: you know, a competitor DNC media wing apparatus. To see it, 244 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 1: I was the same thing basically, but MSNBC there's at 245 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 1: least a little more honesty around the fact that it's 246 00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:31,840 Speaker 1: a bunch of left wing a bunch of left wing 247 00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:35,000 Speaker 1: people who all support the same ideas and policies. CNN 248 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 1: still pretends like, oh, no, we're just journalists, man, We're 249 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:40,560 Speaker 1: just journalists doing our job, you know, just doing our thing. No, 250 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:46,920 Speaker 1: they are not. I've noticed they won't put anyone forward 251 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 1: ane other big tough anchors, some of whom are involved 252 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:53,080 Speaker 1: in perpetuating this hoax in the earliest days. You know, 253 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 1: none of them, I mean, they're not tough, obviously, you 254 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 1: know what I mean. They're they're big, swanky, fancy anchors. 255 00:16:57,680 --> 00:16:59,680 Speaker 1: None of them are gonna go defend their coverage of 256 00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 1: this publicly, none of them will subject themselves to scrutiny, 257 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 1: and not even a hostile just a neutral environment, because 258 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:10,760 Speaker 1: they can't defend this. How could they. They wasted two 259 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:14,360 Speaker 1: years of our time with this. They wasted two years. 260 00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:21,200 Speaker 1: And when you see how how this is gone and 261 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 1: all the time on this one I mean twenty eight. 262 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:26,400 Speaker 1: I mean, here's on the Special Council side. Twenty eight 263 00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 1: hundred subpoenas, five hundred search warrants, two hundred and thirty 264 00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:34,600 Speaker 1: orders more than that, but two and thirty plus orders 265 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 1: for communication records, thirteen requests to foreign governments for evidence, 266 00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 1: five hundred witness interviews. All right, that's that's what this 267 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:49,639 Speaker 1: to get us to hear where there's no charges nothing. 268 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:54,040 Speaker 1: Drudgeport had this up today. Five hundred and thirty three 269 00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:59,720 Speaker 1: thousand articles published about Russia and Trump. Network News spent 270 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:04,680 Speaker 1: two thousand, two hundred and eighty four minutes on the probe. 271 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 1: They have fake stories that they've refused to retract. There 272 00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 1: does need to be a broad recognition among the American 273 00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:22,400 Speaker 1: people that our news media has betrayed us, and they 274 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:24,879 Speaker 1: have betrayed the trust that the American people put in them, 275 00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:26,919 Speaker 1: at least some of them do to bring them the 276 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 1: facts and the truth. They have dishonored that mission. They 277 00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:33,879 Speaker 1: have disgraced themselves. We should never forgive the media for 278 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:36,040 Speaker 1: what they've done to Trump. We should never forget the 279 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 1: lies of the last two years. While this report does 280 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 1: not conclude that the President committed a crime, it also 281 00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:48,360 Speaker 1: does not exonerate him. That's a direct quote quote from 282 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:50,960 Speaker 1: Robert Mueller. The Special Council say also, but the only 283 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:52,959 Speaker 1: place in the document, I think we're still reading it 284 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:55,359 Speaker 1: where they really go into the reasonable doubt standard and 285 00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:57,959 Speaker 1: they talk about how, you know, so what would have 286 00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:00,840 Speaker 1: to have been proven in or convict someone of a 287 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:04,480 Speaker 1: charge where corrupt intent, engaging and obstruction. They're noting that 288 00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:07,199 Speaker 1: it's a high legal burden. What was found today was 289 00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 1: that the president or everyone connected the campaign won't be 290 00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:14,000 Speaker 1: charged by the state for you know, things that could 291 00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:16,159 Speaker 1: have been burned beyond a reasonable doubt. But there's still 292 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:20,919 Speaker 1: plenty of that Congress connect and that's really the important thing. No, 293 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:25,320 Speaker 1: what's really the important thing CNN panel is that there's 294 00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:29,720 Speaker 1: no collusion and no obstruction and this is done. It's finished. 295 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 1: They need to learn to accept that. They need to 296 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:37,680 Speaker 1: just take take a moment, take a deep breath, and 297 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 1: it's it's finished. They tried, they took their best shot 298 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:47,800 Speaker 1: at destroying this presidency through underhanded means, and they failed, 299 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 1: and they failed. I know it's hard for them. There's 300 00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 1: a bit of denialism that has said in here too, 301 00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:56,000 Speaker 1: with someone the left you know, people have taken different 302 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,879 Speaker 1: Some are saying on the left, well, we never really 303 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 1: thought they were going to prove illusion. You know. Others 304 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:04,880 Speaker 1: are saying, well, you know, we are still going to 305 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:08,679 Speaker 1: investigate this. And then there's also that group that just 306 00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:11,360 Speaker 1: is in denial or they say, oh, we're we are 307 00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:16,719 Speaker 1: just not going to believe this, or or or oh 308 00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:19,920 Speaker 1: there's another option too, which is that this wasn't this 309 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 1: wasn't enough, this wasn't fair, the process was somehow favorable 310 00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:28,240 Speaker 1: to Trump. CNN as this Justice reporter guy named Evan Perez, 311 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 1: whom I've never heard say anything intelligent really on television, 312 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:36,960 Speaker 1: but they put him on a lot and he gave 313 00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:40,639 Speaker 1: this spin on corrupt intent, essentially saying, well, because the 314 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,480 Speaker 1: President did not sit down with Muller, that's why they 315 00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:46,439 Speaker 1: couldn't prove me. This was just in a day of 316 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:49,879 Speaker 1: full of very weak, very dumb takes. This was in 317 00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:53,160 Speaker 1: a class by itself place sex. So the question is 318 00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 1: it is the reason why they were never able to 319 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:59,040 Speaker 1: answer the question of corrupt intent because the president refused 320 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 1: to sit down with the investigators to essentially discuss what 321 00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 1: he meant by his tweets, what he meant when he 322 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 1: told Komy that he should drop the Flint thing was 323 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:11,919 Speaker 1: what was going on in his mind, and obviously that 324 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 1: was the holy grail for the President's legal team. I 325 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 1: think this was a huge victory, obviously, that cannot be understated. 326 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:22,080 Speaker 1: The fact that the president went through this twenty two 327 00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:26,280 Speaker 1: month investigation and never sat down with the investigators is 328 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:29,679 Speaker 1: something that I think made a huge difference here. And 329 00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:33,680 Speaker 1: one reason why Robert Mueller probably could not even get 330 00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:36,119 Speaker 1: to a conclusion here is that perhaps he was not 331 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:39,920 Speaker 1: able to complete the investigation. It's also the most obvious 332 00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 1: thing imaginable. Of course, Trump should not have sat down 333 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 1: with Muller. The whole game that Muller and his team 334 00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:48,359 Speaker 1: were playing all the time was to set perjury traps 335 00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 1: for people. And we know Trump is very kind of 336 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:54,880 Speaker 1: fast and loose and speaks in generalities and with hyperbole, 337 00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:59,680 Speaker 1: and it was an obviously bad idea to have Trump 338 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:01,840 Speaker 1: sit with Mueller, especially because we know Mueller was on 339 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:03,840 Speaker 1: a headhunting expedition and was going to try to take 340 00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:07,120 Speaker 1: anything he could to get Trump. And that's also where 341 00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 1: on this does not exonerate him line that he left 342 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:14,159 Speaker 1: in there and that was that was gross that was 343 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 1: not ethical. And I have yet to hear anybody with 344 00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 1: a real legal mind who has tried to justify what 345 00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 1: was done there, because Mueller's not supposed to say, well, 346 00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 1: we we had some stuff on him, but we didn't 347 00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 1: decide to charge him. But we maybe could have charged him, 348 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:35,439 Speaker 1: but we didn't charge him. That's not what prosecutors do. 349 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,920 Speaker 1: The law is broken or the law is not broken 350 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:42,239 Speaker 1: based on the investigation. It is a go or no 351 00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 1: go standard. It isn't a yes no maybe so. And 352 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:50,639 Speaker 1: I liked that the DIRSH really laid into Mueller on 353 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,439 Speaker 1: this one play clip twelve. I thought it was a 354 00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:56,399 Speaker 1: cop out for him to say that there was not 355 00:22:56,560 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 1: enough evidence to indict. But it's not an exoneration. We're 356 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 1: going to put a report out on obstruction. We're going 357 00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:05,160 Speaker 1: to put a report out what says. On the one hand, 358 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:07,960 Speaker 1: on the other hand, it sounds like a law school exam. 359 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:10,680 Speaker 1: That's not the job of the prosecutor. The job of 360 00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:15,760 Speaker 1: the prosecutors to decide yes or no, make a decision, 361 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:18,960 Speaker 1: and then if you say yes, you indict. If you 362 00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 1: say no, you shut up. How was this different than 363 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,960 Speaker 1: Comy Comey says, I'm not going to windict Hillary Clinton. 364 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,439 Speaker 1: But let me tell you it was a close case. 365 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 1: She had all of this stuff, and she was extremely 366 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:34,399 Speaker 1: careless and she did terrible things. But we're not going 367 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:38,840 Speaker 1: to indict her. That's not what prosecutors do. Shame on Muller, 368 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:41,720 Speaker 1: But not having the guts to come to a decision 369 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:45,440 Speaker 1: one way or the other, that's what prosecutors have paid 370 00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:49,800 Speaker 1: to do. The dirt is right. I have not heard 371 00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:54,399 Speaker 1: anybody in the legal profession worth anything say otherwise. It 372 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:57,119 Speaker 1: is not the job. When a prosecutor does not bring charges, 373 00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 1: they don't get to say, well, there was a lot 374 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:00,879 Speaker 1: of dirty stuff on you, but we decided not to 375 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:04,919 Speaker 1: charge you anyway. That's not how this works, all right. 376 00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 1: Your prosecutor's offices are not oppo research for political parties, 377 00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 1: which is what Mueller was really doing all along as 378 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:15,320 Speaker 1: we know. But that also goes to the people said, oh, 379 00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:18,440 Speaker 1: how dare you criticize Muller. No, Mueller deserves to be criticized. 380 00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 1: Mueller sent dozens of people armed to the teeth on 381 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:28,920 Speaker 1: a raid into Roger Stone, senior citizen Roger Stone's quiet 382 00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:32,040 Speaker 1: home in Florida because Roger Stone lied under oath about 383 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:39,240 Speaker 1: nonsense allegedly about nothing. Paul Manafort has been in solitary 384 00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:44,640 Speaker 1: confinement for months, for months, because the special counsel wants 385 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:48,280 Speaker 1: him to suffer solitary confinement. He's gonna cell alone twenty 386 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:50,919 Speaker 1: three hours a day. I mean, the guy is not 387 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 1: Hannibal Lecter. So the people that were running this whole 388 00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:59,879 Speaker 1: information operation on how you couldn't criticize Muller and Muller's 389 00:24:59,920 --> 00:25:01,479 Speaker 1: the best and how could I even say anything bad 390 00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 1: about Mueller's should be ashamed of themselves. What do you 391 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,440 Speaker 1: mean Mueller like the guy who botched the anthrax case 392 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 1: and Andrew Weissman and what he did to Enron. I mean, 393 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 1: you look at some of the people that were you know, 394 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:17,440 Speaker 1: Jeanie Ree who was involved at the Clinton Foundation as counsel. 395 00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:21,080 Speaker 1: There were a bunch of Democrats involved here. There were 396 00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:24,439 Speaker 1: people who had very questionable motives and very questionable judgment 397 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 1: all throughout. And that there are so many in the 398 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:31,840 Speaker 1: media and in the Democratic Party who pretended that that 399 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:35,520 Speaker 1: wasn't so. I just keep these people have no integrity 400 00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:38,639 Speaker 1: to protect. The good part about having no integrity to 401 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:41,200 Speaker 1: protect is it just gives you a lot of leeway. 402 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 1: You can get away with a lot if you'll just 403 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:45,640 Speaker 1: if you'll just do anything, if you're playing anything to win, 404 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,600 Speaker 1: you got a lot of options. And that's how the 405 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:51,440 Speaker 1: Democrat media and the Democrat Party plays plays the game. 406 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:55,400 Speaker 1: Any need to win, you have to abandon all principles 407 00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:57,960 Speaker 1: and ethics and decency. But that Democrats did that a 408 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:01,040 Speaker 1: long time ago. In this investigation with Trump, it was 409 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 1: scorched earth everything they can to take him down, anything 410 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:06,880 Speaker 1: they can to take him down. And they failed, but 411 00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 1: it was closer than it should have been. My friends, 412 00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 1: keep in mind, Yeah, a number of US persons worked 413 00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:19,120 Speaker 1: with the Russians in one form or another. I think 414 00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:22,879 Speaker 1: it's been demonstrated now that there was this active engagement, 415 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:26,919 Speaker 1: and I'm hoping and I believe that Bob Muller and 416 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:30,280 Speaker 1: his team were going to uncover a lot more that 417 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 1: is unknown. I think is Glenn mentioned there is a 418 00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:36,440 Speaker 1: lot that the Special Council's Office has been involved in. 419 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:40,000 Speaker 1: You smell coming between now and the final report from 420 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:45,040 Speaker 1: more I started between I smell more indictments family members. Well, 421 00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:47,480 Speaker 1: I believe that if there are going to be family 422 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 1: members indicted by the Special Council, it would be the 423 00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 1: final raft of indictments. That's the former CI direct John Brynnant. 424 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:03,639 Speaker 1: The only group of people in this whole process that 425 00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:08,920 Speaker 1: I think look worse than the left wing media are 426 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:13,200 Speaker 1: the senior government officials, mostly Obama, but not all Obama appointees, 427 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:15,679 Speaker 1: but mostly Obama or I should say that, I think 428 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:18,040 Speaker 1: they really all were appointees of Obamas, but at least 429 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:21,680 Speaker 1: some of them were from other administrations too. Yeah, these 430 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:26,240 Speaker 1: very senior people at places like the Department of the 431 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 1: Director of National Intelligence DNI, James Clapper, John Brennan, the 432 00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:33,359 Speaker 1: CIA director, James Comey, the FBI director, Andrew McKay, the 433 00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:40,119 Speaker 1: WFBI director, Sally Yates, the acting Attorney General. These people 434 00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:45,879 Speaker 1: have made complete fools of themselves, and the way that 435 00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:49,720 Speaker 1: they've acted has really shaken the faith and confidence that 436 00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:52,119 Speaker 1: any of us should be able to have in these agencies. 437 00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:58,000 Speaker 1: I feel the Brennan lunacy in a particularly acute fashion 438 00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:05,440 Speaker 1: because I feel like people now are way less impressed 439 00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:07,840 Speaker 1: by the whole notion of the CIA and like what 440 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 1: kind of people work there and what kind of work 441 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,600 Speaker 1: they do. And I think people look now at what 442 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:15,760 Speaker 1: happened and they say to themselves, what the heck is 443 00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:17,840 Speaker 1: going on over at the CIA. I mean, how could 444 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:20,840 Speaker 1: this guy, John Brennan have been the top person there 445 00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:24,120 Speaker 1: and now all he does go on TV. I mean 446 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:27,000 Speaker 1: he said this stuff all the time, more indictments. Maybe 447 00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:28,720 Speaker 1: the family is going to be indicted, you know, maybe 448 00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 1: they'll get Don Junior and maybe they'll get Ivanka. At 449 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:34,480 Speaker 1: all he's feeding into this. I mean, John Brennan said 450 00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:38,959 Speaker 1: the President was guilty of acts tant amount to treason. 451 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:41,400 Speaker 1: That's what he said. Does the former CI director who 452 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:45,800 Speaker 1: was the agency director, mind you, when all this Russia 453 00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:49,920 Speaker 1: collusion stuff was supposedly happening. So every time he gave 454 00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:55,280 Speaker 1: voice to this, the assumption in the audience was that 455 00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:58,080 Speaker 1: he must know something. I mean, that's a reasonable assumption. 456 00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:01,920 Speaker 1: He must know something. The former's CIA directors saying that 457 00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 1: the president committed treason and he's talking about acts that 458 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:08,400 Speaker 1: were taken while he was CIA director. He must know something. 459 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:11,360 Speaker 1: And this was all part of the con This was 460 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:15,120 Speaker 1: all part of the game that they played. They took 461 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:18,240 Speaker 1: these people that were supposed to have credibility. They took 462 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,560 Speaker 1: these individuals they were supposed to listen to because of 463 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 1: the big job titles they had under the Obama administration, 464 00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:26,720 Speaker 1: and they trotted them out and they just fed this 465 00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 1: insanity play fifteen. He did this so many times, we 466 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:33,760 Speaker 1: could just play you, John Brennan, Crazy Clips play fifteen. 467 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised if, for example, this week on Friday, 468 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:39,520 Speaker 1: not knowing anything about it, but Friday is the day 469 00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:41,640 Speaker 1: that the granjury indictments come down, and I don't think 470 00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 1: Robert Muller will want to have the dramatic flare of 471 00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:46,720 Speaker 1: the IDEs of March when he is going to be 472 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:48,640 Speaker 1: delivering what I think are going to be his indictments, 473 00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:51,200 Speaker 1: the final indictments, as well as the report that he 474 00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 1: gives the Attorney General. What makes you believe that he 475 00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:58,240 Speaker 1: has more indictments because he hasn't addressed the issues related 476 00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:03,200 Speaker 1: to criminal conspiracy as well as any individual criminal conspiracy. 477 00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:10,960 Speaker 1: The Russian criminal conspiracy involving the Russians wasn't addressed in 478 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 1: the indictments Eugenius because there was no criminal conspiracy involving 479 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:20,680 Speaker 1: Trump and the Russians. How could he not know that 480 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:24,080 Speaker 1: that was at least a possibility? And what convinced him? 481 00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:26,520 Speaker 1: Where did you get all this certainty that there was 482 00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:30,960 Speaker 1: a criminal conspiracy? This guy was the CIA director, and 483 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:33,320 Speaker 1: this is what we this is what we have, this 484 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:38,640 Speaker 1: is what we come up with. It's it's embarrassing, but 485 00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:43,240 Speaker 1: you know, there's even more embarrassment to go around for 486 00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:47,320 Speaker 1: the Democrats. Beto, I totally missed you. I haven't talked 487 00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:49,480 Speaker 1: to you in like a couple of days because I'm 488 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 1: campaigning for a president. Betto yesterday in South Carolina yesterday 489 00:30:57,200 --> 00:31:00,240 Speaker 1: said the following about Trump Play twenty two. You have 490 00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:03,600 Speaker 1: a president whom, my opinion, beyond the shadow of a doubt, 491 00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:08,840 Speaker 1: sought to, however, hand handedly calune with the Russian government, 492 00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:13,960 Speaker 1: of foreign power to undermine and influence our elections, the 493 00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:16,840 Speaker 1: sanctity of the ballot box, the ability for each and 494 00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 1: every single one of us to make informed decisions about 495 00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 1: those who seem to represent us, and whole positions of 496 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:25,680 Speaker 1: public trust. It is beyond the shadow of a doubt that, 497 00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:28,640 Speaker 1: once in office, President of the United States sought to 498 00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:33,320 Speaker 1: obstruct justice, first by firing the principal investigator in know 499 00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:36,440 Speaker 1: what had happened in the twenty sixteen election, and then 500 00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:41,280 Speaker 1: in the light update, tweeting as Attorney general to stop 501 00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 1: the Russia investigation. Oh wait, Patio almost knows something that 502 00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:52,880 Speaker 1: Robert Mueller doesn't because beyond a shadow of a doubt, 503 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:57,000 Speaker 1: Patio says Trump wanted to work with the Russians to 504 00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 1: change the course of the election, and turns out that 505 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:03,200 Speaker 1: that's not true. Do you think, though, that any of 506 00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:07,160 Speaker 1: the people that were listening to that to betomania in action, 507 00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:11,400 Speaker 1: Do you think that any of them believe that the 508 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:14,560 Speaker 1: president is now innocent or at least is not guilty 509 00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:17,360 Speaker 1: because the Mallo probe is over. No, they don't care, 510 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:19,160 Speaker 1: because they never cared what the facts where. They're going 511 00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:22,680 Speaker 1: to believe this no matter what, no matter what we 512 00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:26,400 Speaker 1: tell them, matter what is said. And that's because there 513 00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:30,120 Speaker 1: was a real insanity here. I mean, I used when 514 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:33,200 Speaker 1: I'm talking about this and I'm saying lunacy, insanity, They're nuts, 515 00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:36,720 Speaker 1: they're whacko. I really mean there there was a psychological break. 516 00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:41,680 Speaker 1: There was a disconnect here from reality that affected millions 517 00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:44,320 Speaker 1: and millions of people and affected most of the national 518 00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 1: press corps. And there were stories in the last few 519 00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 1: weeks even of I mean, this was both sad and 520 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:56,200 Speaker 1: kind of terrifying. There were stories written in a might 521 00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:57,920 Speaker 1: even been The New York Times, but in a major 522 00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:01,320 Speaker 1: paper about how there were people who were elderly and 523 00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:06,560 Speaker 1: who were in their last weeks perhaps of life, and 524 00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:09,720 Speaker 1: they had an anxiety. And I'm not making this up. Okay, 525 00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:12,640 Speaker 1: you can check this. They had anxiety because they weren't 526 00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:14,920 Speaker 1: sure they would make it to see the end of 527 00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:19,640 Speaker 1: the Muller probe and Donald Trump being arrested. You know, 528 00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:22,560 Speaker 1: they weren't sure that they would live long enough. And 529 00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:25,360 Speaker 1: that was that provoked anxiety. I mean, that was something 530 00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:27,880 Speaker 1: that was really bothersome to them, the notion that they 531 00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:31,080 Speaker 1: wouldn't get to see Donald Trump in handcuffs because the 532 00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:36,920 Speaker 1: Muller probe they had been that thoroughly brainwashed. You go 533 00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:40,320 Speaker 1: back and you look at what was dawn on Saturday 534 00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 1: Night Live, and just how this made its way into 535 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 1: the culture. I mean, there were people who, oh, my gosh. 536 00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:50,120 Speaker 1: You know when when Jeff Sessions stepped down, Remember it 537 00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:52,160 Speaker 1: was all, oh, what's gonna happen, and he's gonna shut 538 00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:54,240 Speaker 1: down the Muller probe now, and all these people and 539 00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:57,760 Speaker 1: all this protect Muller Acts stuff from the Congress and 540 00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:01,560 Speaker 1: just all this grandstanding and this nonsense, and and that 541 00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:04,960 Speaker 1: was pathetic enough, But then you also had people who 542 00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:10,200 Speaker 1: turned Muller into some kind of a folk hero. Remember this, 543 00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:13,719 Speaker 1: This was this went viral. It was people singing how 544 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:18,400 Speaker 1: they want a Muller Christmas play twenty seven. We wish 545 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:22,080 Speaker 1: you a mother Christmas. We wish you a mother Christmas. 546 00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:26,080 Speaker 1: We wish you a mother Christmas and impeachment next year. 547 00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:32,920 Speaker 1: Indictments will come to you and to your kin. Indictments 548 00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:40,439 Speaker 1: for Christmas and impeachment next year. Sa Penaskuller for all 549 00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:45,359 Speaker 1: of Trump's men in Diamon's for a Christmas and impeachment 550 00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:50,880 Speaker 1: next year. Bring We can stop it there, because that's 551 00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:55,080 Speaker 1: just not what normal people would do. That's that's there's 552 00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:57,719 Speaker 1: there's a kind of sickness at the heart of this. 553 00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:01,000 Speaker 1: You're singing Christmas carols with your kids about how you're 554 00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:05,440 Speaker 1: hoping Muller impeaches the president. I mean this and there 555 00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:07,000 Speaker 1: were all these different people on this video, and it 556 00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:10,000 Speaker 1: got all this attention because anything that was anti Trump 557 00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:13,799 Speaker 1: and pro Muller would get all this attention. There's a 558 00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:16,359 Speaker 1: lot of embarrassment to go around here for people who 559 00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:18,440 Speaker 1: aren't even in the public eye. I mean, if you 560 00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:23,399 Speaker 1: really believe that Trump did this thing with Muller, I'm sorry. 561 00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:24,800 Speaker 1: I did this thing with Putin rather and he was 562 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:28,919 Speaker 1: Putin's puppet, and then took that into to the lengths 563 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:33,319 Speaker 1: of propagandizing to your kids about it. And at what 564 00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:36,359 Speaker 1: point do people feel stupid over this? Because they should 565 00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:38,480 Speaker 1: A lot of people should feel very very dumb. Not 566 00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:40,439 Speaker 1: people listen to this show because you've known the truth 567 00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:44,520 Speaker 1: all along, but a lot of other people very dumb 568 00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:50,120 Speaker 1: on this issue. Avan had his conduct had nothing to 569 00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:53,640 Speaker 1: do with zealous advocacy for a client or any other 570 00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:59,319 Speaker 1: kind of legitimate legal work. Instead, Avanadi used illegal and 571 00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:04,000 Speaker 1: extortion threats for the purpose obtaining of obtaining millions of 572 00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:09,600 Speaker 1: dollars in payments for himself. Abanati repeatedly pressured the company 573 00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:12,840 Speaker 1: to agree to pay or risk having Avanadi hold the 574 00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:16,279 Speaker 1: press conference that he claimed would dramatically drive down the 575 00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:20,480 Speaker 1: stock price of the company at its market value. Avenati 576 00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:23,520 Speaker 1: told the company it could skip paying for an internal 577 00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:28,760 Speaker 1: investigation if instead it simply paid him twenty two point 578 00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:34,200 Speaker 1: five million dollars. Then, Abanati said he would quote ride 579 00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:39,440 Speaker 1: off into the sunset. Today we announced criminal extortion charges 580 00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:44,600 Speaker 1: against Michael Abanati. The charges are based on Avenati's scheme 581 00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:48,080 Speaker 1: to extract more than twenty million dollars in payments from 582 00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:51,279 Speaker 1: a public company by threatening to use his ability to 583 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:59,800 Speaker 1: garner publicity to inflict financial and reputational harm on the company. 584 00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:07,680 Speaker 1: Want a remarkable turn about my friends. Avanati dubbed the 585 00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:13,560 Speaker 1: creepy poorn lawyer by none other than Tucker Carlson, is 586 00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:17,040 Speaker 1: facing I think now, if he were to get the 587 00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:19,839 Speaker 1: max on all charges, which he won't. And the newspapers 588 00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:22,200 Speaker 1: love to do this thing where they tell you what 589 00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:24,680 Speaker 1: someone's facing. They're never going to get that even if 590 00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:27,760 Speaker 1: they're guilty. But he's facing over a hundred years in prison. 591 00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:32,000 Speaker 1: It's a long time. But if he were convicted on 592 00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:35,920 Speaker 1: these charts, I would says he's going to face something 593 00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:39,400 Speaker 1: along the lines of, you know, seven to ten, probably 594 00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:42,360 Speaker 1: in federal prison. He's got real prison time coming his 595 00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:46,840 Speaker 1: way because that's the Southern District of New York. There's 596 00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:50,960 Speaker 1: also a federal case against him that was unveiled today 597 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:54,200 Speaker 1: in California. We have another indictment out there in which 598 00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:59,479 Speaker 1: Michael Avanati told a client that he would accept money 599 00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:02,840 Speaker 1: on the clients behalf lied about the date of payment 600 00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:05,640 Speaker 1: so that he could keep the money for himself and 601 00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:08,799 Speaker 1: use that money to get a loan for one of 602 00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:13,160 Speaker 1: his coffee businesses or something like that, and then kept 603 00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:15,799 Speaker 1: pushing back the date, the phony date of when he 604 00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 1: said he would get the money for the client it 605 00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:21,520 Speaker 1: was over a million dollars and use that money that 606 00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:23,680 Speaker 1: was not his money to begin with, use that money 607 00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:27,839 Speaker 1: in the furtherance of a bank loan fraud where he 608 00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:31,800 Speaker 1: listed that as assets to get multiple millions of dollars 609 00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:37,200 Speaker 1: in loans from a bank. My friends, let's just all 610 00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:42,920 Speaker 1: take a moment here to drink this in Abanati, who 611 00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:47,880 Speaker 1: was less than a year ago being treated by the 612 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:53,640 Speaker 1: media as some kind of rock star, as a possible 613 00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:58,120 Speaker 1: presidential candidate, and I am not making that up. There 614 00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:00,279 Speaker 1: were articles written about this guy. I mean, they made 615 00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:07,399 Speaker 1: him a celebrity lawyer superhero. But Michael Avenati, with all 616 00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:12,880 Speaker 1: of that, now faces the possibility of some really serious 617 00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:17,239 Speaker 1: prison time and the loss of his law license and 618 00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:24,200 Speaker 1: of course whatever reputation he had. This is really serious, 619 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:29,920 Speaker 1: and it's also simultaneously kind of hilarious because he's a 620 00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:32,759 Speaker 1: shady guy. He's a bad guy. People should have known 621 00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:36,239 Speaker 1: this all along. There's nothing surprising about this, just the 622 00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:40,000 Speaker 1: whole way that he would go after people and his 623 00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:45,479 Speaker 1: hyper aggressive and self promoting manner. I mean, he didn't 624 00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:48,520 Speaker 1: have to spend long reading about or seeing this guy 625 00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:51,680 Speaker 1: on TV to know that he was really bad news. 626 00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:57,440 Speaker 1: But the Democrats in there, it's just insane hatred of 627 00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:00,880 Speaker 1: this president. I mean, Trump's arrangement syndrome is such a 628 00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:07,040 Speaker 1: powerful thing that they are incapable of just using their 629 00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:10,480 Speaker 1: normal faculties to figure out that someone like Avenati is 630 00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:15,440 Speaker 1: a world class charlatan. I mean world class. The sky 631 00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:19,520 Speaker 1: is such a phony, and there's there's already so much 632 00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:23,359 Speaker 1: smoke in his background. You know that there's fire with 633 00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:27,799 Speaker 1: different shady dealings going on here and there. But you know, 634 00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:31,320 Speaker 1: he used the representation of Stormy Daniels in an effort 635 00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:34,960 Speaker 1: to really build up his personal profile and to make 636 00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:39,680 Speaker 1: himself a household name. And CNN should be We're gonna 637 00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:41,600 Speaker 1: talk more about media shame in a moment here. I mean, 638 00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:43,920 Speaker 1: they should be appalled at the fact that they had 639 00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:46,800 Speaker 1: this guy on over a hundred times. I think was 640 00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:49,040 Speaker 1: the tally that I saw over the course of two months. 641 00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:53,279 Speaker 1: I mean he was on TV on CNN and MSNBC, 642 00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:58,080 Speaker 1: like you know, multiple times a night, every night for months. 643 00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:02,560 Speaker 1: He was all over the place. People were having serious 644 00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:06,759 Speaker 1: thoughts about whether this guy was going to run. Democrats, 645 00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:12,359 Speaker 1: leftist media types really believe that Michael Avanatti was going 646 00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:14,840 Speaker 1: to run for president of the United States and that 647 00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:17,000 Speaker 1: maybe he could take it to Trump. I heard them 648 00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:20,120 Speaker 1: say this. I heard them, I heard liberals talking about this, 649 00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:25,719 Speaker 1: you know, in person and on TV. I was amazed. 650 00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:30,440 Speaker 1: But you have to remember, Michael Avanati is also accidentally 651 00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:35,000 Speaker 1: kind of a great American. You have to recall that 652 00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:43,440 Speaker 1: Michael Avanati was the individual who was representing the third 653 00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:49,080 Speaker 1: accuser of Kavanaugh, Julie Sweatnick. You know, Avanati was the 654 00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:53,319 Speaker 1: one who put his name to that or oversaw that 655 00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:59,240 Speaker 1: document that sworn Affidavid about Kavanaugh and the roving gang 656 00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:05,600 Speaker 1: rape squads. It was Avenati who made that thing a 657 00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:10,040 Speaker 1: national news story, and he was the lawyer representing that woman. 658 00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:14,759 Speaker 1: And she was quite clearly a crazy person. I mean, 659 00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:20,319 Speaker 1: she was somebody who really does have severe problems. I mean, 660 00:42:20,320 --> 00:42:22,319 Speaker 1: if you saw that interview where she gave her she's 661 00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:27,759 Speaker 1: talking about the roving Kavanaugh gang rape squad, it was 662 00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:30,560 Speaker 1: so obvious that she was a liar and a disturbed 663 00:42:30,640 --> 00:42:33,840 Speaker 1: person and an emotionally disturbed person, and that Michael Amanati 664 00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:36,080 Speaker 1: as a lawyer, as an officer of the court, which 665 00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:37,759 Speaker 1: is always kind of funny when you say that about 666 00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:40,080 Speaker 1: certain lawyers, you think, wow, you mean they're supposed to 667 00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:45,719 Speaker 1: be ethical as somebody who's on the court. That's not 668 00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:48,239 Speaker 1: something that he should have been good faith done. He 669 00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:50,960 Speaker 1: should not be representing a woman and be part of 670 00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:56,399 Speaker 1: an obvious political hit job using a deeply disturbed human 671 00:42:56,440 --> 00:42:58,960 Speaker 1: being in order to get his name the headlines. But 672 00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:02,320 Speaker 1: he did it. But as a result of him representing Sweatnick, 673 00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:07,000 Speaker 1: I think you have Supreme Court Justice Kavanaugh, because no 674 00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:10,799 Speaker 1: honest person could sit there when that third allegation came 675 00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:14,520 Speaker 1: out and say, Okay, so this isn't this isn't a hit, right, 676 00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:18,919 Speaker 1: I mean it. You know, I thought that I can't 677 00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:22,520 Speaker 1: remember her name now, but the main the main accuser 678 00:43:22,640 --> 00:43:28,239 Speaker 1: of Kavanaugh, thank you, Blasi Ford. I thought that she 679 00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:34,399 Speaker 1: was a liar, but a credible liar. I have thought 680 00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:37,160 Speaker 1: now for oh, I've thought the whole time that the 681 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:40,160 Speaker 1: second accuser wasn't even really an accuser. You know, she 682 00:43:40,200 --> 00:43:43,479 Speaker 1: couldn't even really remember the story. I mean, she wasn't 683 00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:48,759 Speaker 1: even really sure what was going on. She said that 684 00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:51,160 Speaker 1: she had to ask people, did this really happen to me? 685 00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:53,400 Speaker 1: You're not an accuser when you have to ask people, well, 686 00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:55,200 Speaker 1: did this thing happen that I'm asking you about whether 687 00:43:55,239 --> 00:43:58,560 Speaker 1: it happened. But the third one, the Julie Sweatnick, that 688 00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:00,400 Speaker 1: was the tipping point, and I think that might have 689 00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:03,160 Speaker 1: saved that might have saved things for Kavanaugh, because the 690 00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:06,680 Speaker 1: White House was very close to pulling that nomination. They 691 00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:10,600 Speaker 1: almost did it. And you know, that's where you look 692 00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:16,640 Speaker 1: at the effort and the really the devious machinations involved 693 00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:21,640 Speaker 1: in a number of these very major news stories that 694 00:44:21,680 --> 00:44:29,239 Speaker 1: Democrats were involved in, things like Covington, Kavanaugh, Jesse Smollett. 695 00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:32,680 Speaker 1: You know, where there was an obvious, concerted effort to 696 00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:36,160 Speaker 1: either create a narrative or to prop one up after 697 00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:40,040 Speaker 1: some others had created it. And you see that they 698 00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:42,319 Speaker 1: never learned a lesson, and that's because they don't think 699 00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:46,919 Speaker 1: there's really a lesson to learn. The mainstream media knows 700 00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:49,840 Speaker 1: deep down that they are activists. They are taking actions 701 00:44:49,880 --> 00:44:54,919 Speaker 1: for what they think is a broader a broader good, which, 702 00:44:54,960 --> 00:45:00,520 Speaker 1: as we know, is liberal left wing policy, idea, culture, 703 00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:04,200 Speaker 1: everything else. The media is so far left that it 704 00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:06,960 Speaker 1: doesn't even know how far left it is. And that's 705 00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:09,200 Speaker 1: a very very real problem. We see that continue to 706 00:45:09,200 --> 00:45:13,080 Speaker 1: play out. But I Avanadi and I'm gonna get into 707 00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:14,520 Speaker 1: that media piece in a second. Every but you know, 708 00:45:14,800 --> 00:45:19,200 Speaker 1: Avanadi has inserted himself into some of the biggest issues, 709 00:45:19,239 --> 00:45:21,400 Speaker 1: some of the biggest scandals in America in the last 710 00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:25,800 Speaker 1: year or so, and now here he is facing serious 711 00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:30,080 Speaker 1: federal criminal charges. And also he's not a very slick guy. 712 00:45:30,480 --> 00:45:32,600 Speaker 1: It's kind of amazing that he's made as much money 713 00:45:32,600 --> 00:45:35,040 Speaker 1: and become as famous as he is when he was 714 00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:37,920 Speaker 1: trying to extort Nike. And this is the basics of 715 00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:40,520 Speaker 1: the of the plan. You heard the US attorneys say 716 00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:43,279 Speaker 1: it there earlier in this in this segment, But the 717 00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:45,320 Speaker 1: basics of the plan where You're gonna give me a 718 00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:48,520 Speaker 1: whole lot of money for kind of a sham investigation 719 00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:51,200 Speaker 1: or else I'm going to help hold a big press 720 00:45:51,239 --> 00:45:56,480 Speaker 1: conference and trash you. And what's abasic is that Nike 721 00:45:56,640 --> 00:45:58,560 Speaker 1: when he asked for the twenty was it twenty or 722 00:45:58,600 --> 00:46:01,800 Speaker 1: twenty two million? When he asked for twenty million dollars plus, 723 00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:07,279 Speaker 1: Nike went to the federal government, went to federal prosecutors 724 00:46:07,280 --> 00:46:10,360 Speaker 1: and said, or US attorneys and said, hey, this is 725 00:46:10,360 --> 00:46:12,440 Speaker 1: what's happening to us. And then they got him and 726 00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:16,120 Speaker 1: this was in the indictment which I read, and they 727 00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:21,440 Speaker 1: got him to essentially on tape say exactly what his 728 00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:24,040 Speaker 1: scheme was in a way that it's going to leave 729 00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:27,239 Speaker 1: very little little wiggle room for Oh, this is just 730 00:46:27,320 --> 00:46:32,080 Speaker 1: a standard legal payoff. You know, the the bar is 731 00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:36,719 Speaker 1: pretty higher because, you know, the the line between a 732 00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:40,359 Speaker 1: legal line between legal hush money, which this is really 733 00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:42,799 Speaker 1: a hush money situation, that's what that's what he was 734 00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:45,320 Speaker 1: doing here. But the line between the legal hush money 735 00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:49,719 Speaker 1: payment and extortion is not always that clear. But if 736 00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:54,880 Speaker 1: there is a line, it seems like this individual Avanati 737 00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:59,680 Speaker 1: has crossed it. And then some he's also just the 738 00:46:59,719 --> 00:47:02,600 Speaker 1: whole everything about this guy was just so slimy and gross, 739 00:47:03,200 --> 00:47:04,760 Speaker 1: and I mean I remember when he went on Tucker 740 00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:08,080 Speaker 1: Show and the way that the way that he acted, 741 00:47:08,120 --> 00:47:11,959 Speaker 1: in the way that he was just going after people 742 00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:14,120 Speaker 1: and pretending like he's some kind of hero for women's 743 00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:17,960 Speaker 1: rights by representing by being really a part of a 744 00:47:18,040 --> 00:47:21,120 Speaker 1: porn star extortion, which is what was going on. I mean, 745 00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:23,680 Speaker 1: Stormy Daniels, I mean the hush hush hush money is 746 00:47:23,680 --> 00:47:26,960 Speaker 1: really just a form of legalized extortion anyway, and that's 747 00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:29,359 Speaker 1: all that was going on there. So this is what 748 00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:31,040 Speaker 1: this guy is. This is who he is and what 749 00:47:31,080 --> 00:47:34,680 Speaker 1: he does. But I don't want you to forget for 750 00:47:34,719 --> 00:47:38,359 Speaker 1: one second that he was hailed as a hero when 751 00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:42,120 Speaker 1: they thought that he was useful for bashing Trump. Avenati 752 00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:46,319 Speaker 1: was treated like a hero, a rock star. They could 753 00:47:46,360 --> 00:47:49,600 Speaker 1: not put him on TV enough. I mean, CNN refuses 754 00:47:49,640 --> 00:47:52,680 Speaker 1: to have administration officials on TV because they say that 755 00:47:52,680 --> 00:47:56,719 Speaker 1: they have credibility issues. Right, there's some administration figures that 756 00:47:56,760 --> 00:47:59,640 Speaker 1: have been at least temporarily banned from CNN because of 757 00:47:59,640 --> 00:48:03,439 Speaker 1: their credit ability issues. Meanwhile, Michael Avanadio on every chance 758 00:48:03,440 --> 00:48:07,160 Speaker 1: they got because it served a purpose. Because they are 759 00:48:07,719 --> 00:48:11,600 Speaker 1: not journalists, they are activists. They view their role as 760 00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:14,680 Speaker 1: pushing for an agenda. They're rooting for an outcome. They 761 00:48:14,680 --> 00:48:19,440 Speaker 1: are not providing you with facts. And we have some 762 00:48:19,560 --> 00:48:22,080 Speaker 1: more on that very notion coming up in a moment. 763 00:48:25,239 --> 00:48:28,720 Speaker 1: Despite what Donald Trump keeps saying about no collusion, no collusion, 764 00:48:28,719 --> 00:48:33,000 Speaker 1: no collusion, people all around him appear to have been 765 00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:38,880 Speaker 1: involved in some kind of nefarious relationships with Russians. Donald Trump, 766 00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:42,400 Speaker 1: for the first time in his life, is cornered. He 767 00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:45,480 Speaker 1: is boxed in by Mueller, and it's on the question 768 00:48:45,600 --> 00:48:50,400 Speaker 1: of collusion and a massive obstruction of justice. Mueller is 769 00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:54,520 Speaker 1: now connecting the dots. They know everything about Russia. The 770 00:48:54,560 --> 00:48:59,040 Speaker 1: most serious counterintelligence people we have in the US government saying, 771 00:48:59,160 --> 00:49:02,920 Speaker 1: oh my god, the president's words and actions lead us 772 00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:07,560 Speaker 1: to conclude that somehow he has become a winning, unwinning 773 00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:11,560 Speaker 1: or half winning pawn two Latimer Reputin. I think we've 774 00:49:11,560 --> 00:49:14,440 Speaker 1: done the media. The press has done one of the 775 00:49:14,600 --> 00:49:20,840 Speaker 1: great reporting jobs in the history. That is one of 776 00:49:20,840 --> 00:49:23,280 Speaker 1: the craziest little montages. I think we could pull together 777 00:49:23,320 --> 00:49:28,200 Speaker 1: for you. And you're hearing there from Carl Bernstein of 778 00:49:28,239 --> 00:49:31,040 Speaker 1: Woodward and Bernstein fame that CNN kept putting on the 779 00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:34,239 Speaker 1: air to just make a complete fool of himself and 780 00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:38,840 Speaker 1: tell that audience what they wanted to hear, which was 781 00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:41,520 Speaker 1: that Trump was cornered. Trump's going down any moment, They're 782 00:49:41,520 --> 00:49:46,400 Speaker 1: gonna get Trump. No, they're not. And the way that 783 00:49:47,480 --> 00:49:52,520 Speaker 1: people just completely debased and humiliated themselves in this effort 784 00:49:52,520 --> 00:49:54,960 Speaker 1: to be popular with the hashtag resistance is something that 785 00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:58,440 Speaker 1: I will never forget. And there are people out there 786 00:49:58,440 --> 00:50:00,719 Speaker 1: who have been honest about this. There are people who, 787 00:50:01,719 --> 00:50:04,960 Speaker 1: including those who are not Republicans, not conservatives, who saw 788 00:50:05,040 --> 00:50:08,640 Speaker 1: this for what it was. And I gotta say I 789 00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:12,520 Speaker 1: was on Fox just yesterday briefly, but I was on 790 00:50:12,560 --> 00:50:15,560 Speaker 1: Fox talking about this, and I managed to see the 791 00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:19,359 Speaker 1: Dirsch who was on right before me, and he had 792 00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:22,840 Speaker 1: a he had a just a great moment where he 793 00:50:22,880 --> 00:50:27,120 Speaker 1: went after specifically CNN on this whole issue of Russia 794 00:50:27,120 --> 00:50:30,359 Speaker 1: collusion and this theory, this fantasy. Here's what the Durst said, 795 00:50:30,360 --> 00:50:34,040 Speaker 1: Play thirteen. This is a good day for the president. 796 00:50:34,080 --> 00:50:36,680 Speaker 1: It's a very very bad day for CNN. I have 797 00:50:36,760 --> 00:50:39,440 Speaker 1: to tell you there should be hanging their head in 798 00:50:39,520 --> 00:50:42,080 Speaker 1: shame when you think about how many people went out 799 00:50:42,120 --> 00:50:45,840 Speaker 1: on a limb and predicted there would be indictments for obstruction, 800 00:50:45,840 --> 00:50:48,320 Speaker 1: there would be indictments for collusion, there would be indictments 801 00:50:48,360 --> 00:50:50,440 Speaker 1: for this and for that. They made it seem like 802 00:50:50,480 --> 00:50:52,480 Speaker 1: it was an open and check case, and they misinformed 803 00:50:52,520 --> 00:50:55,480 Speaker 1: the American public and they have to have some public 804 00:50:55,480 --> 00:50:59,160 Speaker 1: accountability when you say things that turn out not to 805 00:50:59,200 --> 00:51:03,440 Speaker 1: be true. I completely agree with Thurschwitz. Unfortunately, I don't 806 00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:06,680 Speaker 1: think there will be any accountability because it served the agenda. 807 00:51:06,719 --> 00:51:09,480 Speaker 1: It served the purpose. Remember, even though they didn't get 808 00:51:09,520 --> 00:51:13,600 Speaker 1: Trump on collusion, they were able to tell this story 809 00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:18,279 Speaker 1: and to use it as a means of hurting the presidency, 810 00:51:18,400 --> 00:51:22,319 Speaker 1: slowing down the presidency, drawing its focus away, drawing its 811 00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:28,879 Speaker 1: energy and resources away from enacting policy into fighting. I mean, 812 00:51:28,880 --> 00:51:33,680 Speaker 1: they put the administration using this lie. They put the 813 00:51:33,680 --> 00:51:39,200 Speaker 1: administration on defense. And in that regard, I don't think 814 00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:43,160 Speaker 1: that CNN feels, or the Washington Post or any of 815 00:51:43,160 --> 00:51:47,440 Speaker 1: these channels or newspapers. I don't think they feel badly 816 00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:49,160 Speaker 1: about this at all. I just think that they are 817 00:51:49,160 --> 00:51:54,120 Speaker 1: a little momentarily sheepish about the fact. Then, unless you're 818 00:51:54,120 --> 00:51:59,600 Speaker 1: a moron, you know that these channels acted horrifically. And 819 00:51:59,640 --> 00:52:01,960 Speaker 1: I mean, unless you are delusial. This woman writing for 820 00:52:02,000 --> 00:52:04,759 Speaker 1: the Washington Post today, I gotta see if I can 821 00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:08,200 Speaker 1: find her who it was, because it was so, so, 822 00:52:08,200 --> 00:52:11,479 Speaker 1: so bad. This woman writing for the Washington Post said 823 00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:15,880 Speaker 1: that they did a good a good job. Hold on 824 00:52:15,920 --> 00:52:20,759 Speaker 1: a second, where did this one go? Oh? Yeah, here 825 00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:26,440 Speaker 1: you go. Margaret Sullivan perspective. Serious journalists should be proud 826 00:52:26,560 --> 00:52:29,239 Speaker 1: and not bullied over their Russia reporting. This is in 827 00:52:29,280 --> 00:52:35,160 Speaker 1: the Washington Post. She is completely completely out of her mind. 828 00:52:36,960 --> 00:52:40,360 Speaker 1: The press. I don't think. I think this is a 829 00:52:40,640 --> 00:52:43,600 Speaker 1: death blow for media credibility. I mean, I don't think 830 00:52:43,600 --> 00:52:45,399 Speaker 1: they ever come back from this. I don't think they're 831 00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:47,880 Speaker 1: ever going to rebound from this, and I think the 832 00:52:47,920 --> 00:52:50,359 Speaker 1: media is now permanently fractured. It might take a little 833 00:52:50,400 --> 00:52:53,959 Speaker 1: time for this to become obvious, but I do think 834 00:52:54,040 --> 00:52:58,200 Speaker 1: that that's where that's where we're heading now. You can't 835 00:52:58,239 --> 00:53:05,480 Speaker 1: watch this and realize that these people are just they're 836 00:53:05,520 --> 00:53:08,520 Speaker 1: just out of it. They have forgotten about what their 837 00:53:08,600 --> 00:53:13,719 Speaker 1: jobs are supposed to be. They've abandoned it, and they 838 00:53:14,239 --> 00:53:17,000 Speaker 1: have no honesty about what they're really doing. Day in 839 00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:19,960 Speaker 1: and day out. They serve an agenda, they serve a 840 00:53:20,000 --> 00:53:22,640 Speaker 1: purpose for the left, and it's a very look, it's 841 00:53:22,680 --> 00:53:24,279 Speaker 1: a it's good work if you can get it from 842 00:53:24,280 --> 00:53:26,680 Speaker 1: a sense that a lot of them are very highly 843 00:53:26,719 --> 00:53:30,560 Speaker 1: paid little foot soldiers of the left wing agenda. They are, 844 00:53:31,719 --> 00:53:34,880 Speaker 1: you know, operating in a in an environment, especially in 845 00:53:34,880 --> 00:53:37,640 Speaker 1: a place like SNA or MSNBC wherever it around them 846 00:53:37,680 --> 00:53:40,680 Speaker 1: thinks that they're doing heroic work because they're carrying water 847 00:53:40,719 --> 00:53:44,160 Speaker 1: for the Democrats. So there won't be media accountability, but 848 00:53:44,200 --> 00:53:46,879 Speaker 1: there should be, and at least you and I get 849 00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:50,319 Speaker 1: to go on with our days knowing that we were 850 00:53:50,400 --> 00:53:56,560 Speaker 1: right and all these so called journalists made complete fools 851 00:53:56,560 --> 00:54:04,160 Speaker 1: of themselves. Did Robert Mueller deserve better from the president 852 00:54:04,239 --> 00:54:06,719 Speaker 1: that this kind of language and behavior? Frankly, I think 853 00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:10,760 Speaker 1: the American people deserved better. They didn't deserve for the 854 00:54:10,920 --> 00:54:14,600 Speaker 1: election of this president to try to be the president's 855 00:54:14,680 --> 00:54:17,960 Speaker 1: rhetoric about a public servant doing a job. Are you kidding? 856 00:54:18,080 --> 00:54:21,480 Speaker 1: The president's rhetoric matches. They are literally The media and 857 00:54:21,560 --> 00:54:25,480 Speaker 1: Democrats have called the president an agent of a foreign 858 00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:28,760 Speaker 1: government that we're talking, but that is an accusation equal 859 00:54:28,800 --> 00:54:31,440 Speaker 1: to treason, which is punishable by death in this country. 860 00:54:31,520 --> 00:54:33,719 Speaker 1: Does he owe Robert Muller an apology for that kind 861 00:54:33,760 --> 00:54:37,320 Speaker 1: of rhetoric? I think Democrats and the liberal media owe 862 00:54:37,440 --> 00:54:40,520 Speaker 1: the president, and they owe the American people and apology. 863 00:54:40,680 --> 00:54:45,360 Speaker 1: They wasted two years and created a massive disruption and 864 00:54:45,840 --> 00:54:50,640 Speaker 1: distraction from things that people that impact everyone's day to 865 00:54:50,680 --> 00:54:56,600 Speaker 1: day life. The gas lighting here is just crazy. That's 866 00:54:57,040 --> 00:55:01,240 Speaker 1: left winger, left wing, you know, est publishment, media hacks. 867 00:55:01,239 --> 00:55:05,000 Speaker 1: Evannah Guthrie does Robert Muller deserve an apology? Are you 868 00:55:05,120 --> 00:55:09,080 Speaker 1: kidding me? Lady? Does Robert Muller deserve an apology for what? 869 00:55:10,880 --> 00:55:16,160 Speaker 1: For what? Because the President said that Muller's whole thing 870 00:55:16,239 --> 00:55:17,840 Speaker 1: is a witch hunt. It was a witch hunt. The 871 00:55:17,880 --> 00:55:21,560 Speaker 1: President's right. Does anyone think that it really took them 872 00:55:21,600 --> 00:55:23,920 Speaker 1: two years to figure out that there was no collusion 873 00:55:25,000 --> 00:55:27,400 Speaker 1: and they probably knew with in the first three months, 874 00:55:27,560 --> 00:55:30,520 Speaker 1: maybe the first six months. You know, they're a pull 875 00:55:30,520 --> 00:55:33,760 Speaker 1: all the phone records, they are the pull whatever witnesses 876 00:55:33,800 --> 00:55:37,080 Speaker 1: they want, whatever electronic communications they wanted to see, had 877 00:55:37,120 --> 00:55:39,480 Speaker 1: all the resources they could ever want or desire for this. 878 00:55:40,080 --> 00:55:43,560 Speaker 1: But does Muller They still they're just trying to come 879 00:55:43,640 --> 00:55:45,799 Speaker 1: up with everything they can to muddy the waters here. 880 00:55:46,160 --> 00:55:48,960 Speaker 1: You know, it's it's amazing to watch how the media 881 00:55:49,160 --> 00:55:52,799 Speaker 1: plays all these games, and there's so much, there's so 882 00:55:52,920 --> 00:55:56,560 Speaker 1: much that they do. It's so transparent, so dishonest, but 883 00:55:56,800 --> 00:55:59,560 Speaker 1: they can't help themselves, and one of the ones is 884 00:55:59,760 --> 00:56:03,360 Speaker 1: just to find something else to talk about or to 885 00:56:03,480 --> 00:56:06,600 Speaker 1: make it seem like the real victim here is Muller. 886 00:56:07,120 --> 00:56:09,799 Speaker 1: The real person that we need to like focus in 887 00:56:09,840 --> 00:56:13,000 Speaker 1: on is is how you know, is Muller and how 888 00:56:13,040 --> 00:56:16,360 Speaker 1: he was not treated nicely enough by the President of 889 00:56:16,360 --> 00:56:18,160 Speaker 1: the United States. So I think Muller is gonna be 890 00:56:18,239 --> 00:56:23,799 Speaker 1: gonna be just fine. There was, as as I've been saying, 891 00:56:23,880 --> 00:56:27,120 Speaker 1: such a mass hysteria around this. It's such it's such 892 00:56:27,160 --> 00:56:30,160 Speaker 1: an embarrassment, and there should be such a greater deal 893 00:56:30,280 --> 00:56:33,920 Speaker 1: of embarrassment for the people that bought into all of 894 00:56:33,960 --> 00:56:38,279 Speaker 1: this and this. Alston then brings me to will we 895 00:56:38,320 --> 00:56:43,880 Speaker 1: see any any consequences for the people involved? I I 896 00:56:43,920 --> 00:56:48,240 Speaker 1: think unforced the answer is probably not really, not really. 897 00:56:48,360 --> 00:56:51,640 Speaker 1: I've I've still thought all along that Sally Yates played 898 00:56:51,640 --> 00:56:53,239 Speaker 1: a bigger role in some of this than we've yet 899 00:56:53,280 --> 00:56:56,320 Speaker 1: found out. I just there's something about Yates and her conduct, 900 00:56:56,320 --> 00:56:58,200 Speaker 1: and I mean, she's definitely a lefty and a definitely 901 00:56:58,239 --> 00:57:03,600 Speaker 1: a true believer leftist. But you know, I just wonder 902 00:57:03,600 --> 00:57:05,239 Speaker 1: if they're all going to get away with this with 903 00:57:05,239 --> 00:57:07,640 Speaker 1: with an attempted coup against the government, really just a 904 00:57:07,680 --> 00:57:10,839 Speaker 1: coup using the government apparatus. But people say, oh, that's 905 00:57:10,840 --> 00:57:12,400 Speaker 1: not fear. You can't call it a coup. Why And 906 00:57:12,440 --> 00:57:15,319 Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of coups are bloodless. They 907 00:57:15,400 --> 00:57:17,640 Speaker 1: just you know, the men with guns, show up the 908 00:57:17,640 --> 00:57:20,160 Speaker 1: police or the secret police or whatever, and they say, okay, mister, 909 00:57:20,640 --> 00:57:23,320 Speaker 1: mister president or King so and so, like, you're under 910 00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:26,720 Speaker 1: arrest now, and that's it, you know, And that person 911 00:57:26,720 --> 00:57:28,480 Speaker 1: then gets thrown in a cell somewhere and the new 912 00:57:28,520 --> 00:57:31,200 Speaker 1: regime comes into place. And that a coup is not 913 00:57:31,240 --> 00:57:34,320 Speaker 1: always the palace, you know, or the the seat of 914 00:57:34,400 --> 00:57:37,760 Speaker 1: government gets shot up and there's bloodshed everywhere and it's 915 00:57:37,760 --> 00:57:39,840 Speaker 1: a it's a tank battle in the streets. Sometimes a 916 00:57:39,880 --> 00:57:42,920 Speaker 1: coup is just okay, the people in power show up 917 00:57:42,920 --> 00:57:45,440 Speaker 1: and say you're now in a cell or you have 918 00:57:45,480 --> 00:57:48,800 Speaker 1: to leave the country. And what they tried against this 919 00:57:48,880 --> 00:57:51,440 Speaker 1: president was no less than a coup, a coup using 920 00:57:51,480 --> 00:57:56,400 Speaker 1: the judicial system and the or rather the Department of 921 00:57:56,440 --> 00:58:01,680 Speaker 1: Justice and the prosecutorial and investigative functions of the governments. 922 00:58:01,880 --> 00:58:04,520 Speaker 1: That was what the effort was here, and the media 923 00:58:04,560 --> 00:58:08,080 Speaker 1: and the Democratic Party working together on this, and it's 924 00:58:08,120 --> 00:58:12,080 Speaker 1: the biggest scam, the biggest scandal in my lifetime. And 925 00:58:12,240 --> 00:58:14,320 Speaker 1: while on the one hand, I'm elated, on the other hand, 926 00:58:14,360 --> 00:58:18,400 Speaker 1: I'm absolutely furious. And that's why I like that Sarah 927 00:58:18,480 --> 00:58:25,720 Speaker 1: Hugaby Sanders is just not backing down one inch. One inch. 928 00:58:27,960 --> 00:58:31,360 Speaker 1: Here's what she said about about this with Savannah Guthrie, 929 00:58:31,400 --> 00:58:34,840 Speaker 1: play twenty four. Let's not forget this took place under 930 00:58:34,880 --> 00:58:38,520 Speaker 1: the Obama administration. You had people like Clapper and Brennan 931 00:58:38,680 --> 00:58:42,520 Speaker 1: lying to Congress to perpetuate this idea of Russia collusion 932 00:58:42,600 --> 00:58:45,200 Speaker 1: against the President of the United I think they're talking 933 00:58:45,200 --> 00:58:48,200 Speaker 1: about the fact that Russia did, in fact metal in 934 00:58:48,200 --> 00:58:50,720 Speaker 1: our elections, which is borne out by this latest report 935 00:58:50,760 --> 00:58:53,160 Speaker 1: and the intelligence agencies of the US, and they tried 936 00:58:53,160 --> 00:58:55,400 Speaker 1: to tie the President of the United States to it, 937 00:58:55,480 --> 00:59:00,200 Speaker 1: which was completely false and completely wrong. Notice how just 938 00:59:00,320 --> 00:59:01,720 Speaker 1: you know she knows the talking was there, Well, there 939 00:59:01,720 --> 00:59:04,000 Speaker 1: was the Russian meddling. The Russian middling was a joke, folks. 940 00:59:05,960 --> 00:59:07,560 Speaker 1: It was a joke. And I think actually the Russians 941 00:59:07,600 --> 00:59:09,680 Speaker 1: really believed that it was basically a joke, as in, 942 00:59:10,120 --> 00:59:13,560 Speaker 1: they were just messing with us because that's what they 943 00:59:13,600 --> 00:59:15,960 Speaker 1: like to do. They weren't going to turn the election 944 00:59:16,000 --> 00:59:18,640 Speaker 1: one way or the other. They certainly didn't think. No 945 00:59:18,680 --> 00:59:21,040 Speaker 1: one thought Donald Trump was gonna win. The Russians didn't 946 00:59:21,040 --> 00:59:22,600 Speaker 1: think he was gonna win, and they didn't know anything, 947 00:59:22,800 --> 00:59:25,440 Speaker 1: no idea. They got their own problems. I got their 948 00:59:25,480 --> 00:59:30,320 Speaker 1: own things going on there, But Savannah Guthrie, you know, 949 00:59:30,360 --> 00:59:32,360 Speaker 1: sticks to the talking points of that. Well, you know, 950 00:59:32,440 --> 00:59:36,840 Speaker 1: really the problem is that you just need to look 951 00:59:36,840 --> 00:59:40,320 Speaker 1: at how Russia was so influential in what happened here, 952 00:59:40,360 --> 00:59:42,560 Speaker 1: and the truth is that Russia was not influential, and 953 00:59:42,600 --> 00:59:45,760 Speaker 1: we should not be in a position where we have 954 00:59:45,840 --> 00:59:48,680 Speaker 1: to keep going back over this same And I want 955 00:59:48,720 --> 00:59:50,520 Speaker 1: to see the information, by the way, I would like 956 00:59:50,560 --> 00:59:52,440 Speaker 1: to see more than just people who said it was 957 00:59:52,720 --> 00:59:56,120 Speaker 1: seventeen intelligence agencies and you know they were the ones 958 00:59:56,200 --> 00:59:59,400 Speaker 1: that made this determination. It's actually four. It was actually 959 00:59:59,480 --> 01:00:02,760 Speaker 1: individual Jules, a handful of people i'm sure, from four 960 01:00:02,760 --> 01:00:06,440 Speaker 1: of the intelligence agencies that were handpicked by by Brennan 961 01:00:08,760 --> 01:00:12,560 Speaker 1: by Brennan. So you know, he's a guy who has 962 01:00:12,560 --> 01:00:16,200 Speaker 1: done as much damage to the reputation the federal government's 963 01:00:16,200 --> 01:00:18,120 Speaker 1: process as anybody. I mean, I think you could probably 964 01:00:18,200 --> 01:00:22,480 Speaker 1: argue he's done the most damage with the possible exception 965 01:00:22,520 --> 01:00:25,960 Speaker 1: of James Komey and maybe McCabe or the McCabe wasn't 966 01:00:26,000 --> 01:00:28,720 Speaker 1: as large of a figure in this. And Peter Struck 967 01:00:28,880 --> 01:00:31,240 Speaker 1: was the most egregious in his hatred of the president 968 01:00:31,520 --> 01:00:35,480 Speaker 1: and the stupidity of his personal communications. But he's a 969 01:00:35,600 --> 01:00:38,479 Speaker 1: kind of not a low level but a lower level guy, 970 01:00:38,960 --> 01:00:42,040 Speaker 1: and not somebody that you would expect necessarily to have 971 01:00:42,160 --> 01:00:49,760 Speaker 1: the political know how and skills to maneuver at that level, 972 01:00:50,080 --> 01:00:52,040 Speaker 1: someone like a Komey, a Brennon. I mean, these guys 973 01:00:52,040 --> 01:00:55,960 Speaker 1: are effectively politicians who are running major government bureaucracies, and 974 01:00:56,040 --> 01:00:59,360 Speaker 1: that they have been such clowns in this whole thing 975 01:00:59,440 --> 01:01:02,760 Speaker 1: and really so damaging. I mean, if you haven't seen 976 01:01:02,840 --> 01:01:05,760 Speaker 1: yet Komy standing in the woods looking up at a 977 01:01:05,760 --> 01:01:08,400 Speaker 1: bunch of trees with his tweet, I have questions. You know, 978 01:01:08,440 --> 01:01:11,760 Speaker 1: you've definitely missed something. And then there's also a video 979 01:01:11,840 --> 01:01:15,880 Speaker 1: let's going around of it's I can't even really describe it. 980 01:01:15,920 --> 01:01:19,440 Speaker 1: I think it's called a Pea Warrior video of Donald 981 01:01:19,440 --> 01:01:24,000 Speaker 1: Trump's face put on these South Asian in this South 982 01:01:24,040 --> 01:01:27,360 Speaker 1: Asian warrior scene. It's it's hilarious. I mean, I'm just 983 01:01:27,400 --> 01:01:32,640 Speaker 1: so excited about all the celebration and the the hilarious 984 01:01:32,640 --> 01:01:35,320 Speaker 1: stuff that's also going on, because we finally get to 985 01:01:35,360 --> 01:01:37,760 Speaker 1: sit around and look at each other and say, you know, 986 01:01:37,840 --> 01:01:41,320 Speaker 1: this nightmare is over. But that sense of elation, in 987 01:01:41,440 --> 01:01:45,360 Speaker 1: that sense that we can take a take a breath. 988 01:01:45,920 --> 01:01:48,240 Speaker 1: You know, you have to balance that out with well, 989 01:01:48,800 --> 01:01:51,919 Speaker 1: what does justice really require here? And I think that, unfortunately, 990 01:01:52,360 --> 01:01:56,120 Speaker 1: justice is going to require, despite what Savannah Guthrie's of 991 01:01:56,160 --> 01:02:01,320 Speaker 1: the world say, finding out who perpetuated this hoax, because 992 01:02:01,320 --> 01:02:04,280 Speaker 1: it was not about Russian interference in the election. It 993 01:02:04,320 --> 01:02:07,480 Speaker 1: was about the president conspiring with Russia to interfere in 994 01:02:07,480 --> 01:02:10,440 Speaker 1: the election. If it was just about Russian interference, there 995 01:02:10,480 --> 01:02:13,520 Speaker 1: would not have needed to be a special counsel at all. 996 01:02:14,120 --> 01:02:16,920 Speaker 1: The special counsel was appointed because they said that Trump 997 01:02:16,960 --> 01:02:21,120 Speaker 1: was trying to stop the investigation into the interference that 998 01:02:21,200 --> 01:02:25,040 Speaker 1: Trump committed with Russia in the election, which was all 999 01:02:25,320 --> 01:02:31,560 Speaker 1: a crazy story for lunatics, but they believed it. This 1000 01:02:31,600 --> 01:02:35,240 Speaker 1: president has a way of trying to get into people's 1001 01:02:35,240 --> 01:02:39,120 Speaker 1: heads and indoctrinate them. He's been saying no collusion, no collusion, 1002 01:02:39,160 --> 01:02:42,680 Speaker 1: no collusion, over and over again for a long time now, 1003 01:02:42,920 --> 01:02:46,080 Speaker 1: and he's going to try and conclude that there this 1004 01:02:46,160 --> 01:02:49,800 Speaker 1: report is proving that there's no collusion. And you have 1005 01:02:49,840 --> 01:02:52,600 Speaker 1: a lot of his sicklephants who will you take the 1006 01:02:52,680 --> 01:02:56,000 Speaker 1: knog from him, and they'll say the same thing. But 1007 01:02:56,040 --> 01:02:59,080 Speaker 1: we cannot allow them to get away with this. He 1008 01:02:59,160 --> 01:03:02,160 Speaker 1: does this all all the time. This is not the 1009 01:03:02,400 --> 01:03:05,680 Speaker 1: end of anything. This is the well, it's the end 1010 01:03:05,880 --> 01:03:09,800 Speaker 1: of the report and the investigation by Muller. But those 1011 01:03:09,840 --> 01:03:13,720 Speaker 1: of us who chaired these committees have a responsibility to 1012 01:03:13,760 --> 01:03:17,920 Speaker 1: continue with our oversight. This is not the end of anything. 1013 01:03:18,440 --> 01:03:20,600 Speaker 1: I mean, at the end of the Mueller investigation. But 1014 01:03:20,640 --> 01:03:25,000 Speaker 1: it's not the end of anything. Maxie and waters Man, 1015 01:03:25,160 --> 01:03:30,440 Speaker 1: what what would we do without Maxie? And representing the 1016 01:03:30,560 --> 01:03:36,120 Speaker 1: left wing Democrat looney point of view? There, She's not 1017 01:03:36,160 --> 01:03:37,920 Speaker 1: the end of anything. They're going to keep on. We 1018 01:03:38,160 --> 01:03:40,640 Speaker 1: knew this was the case. I've been telling you this forever. 1019 01:03:41,280 --> 01:03:44,560 Speaker 1: You know this. I know this that even one presented 1020 01:03:45,080 --> 01:03:49,960 Speaker 1: with the finality of no collusion via Muller, whom, as 1021 01:03:49,960 --> 01:03:53,240 Speaker 1: I've discussed with you, is not somebody who is favorably 1022 01:03:53,240 --> 01:03:56,560 Speaker 1: disposed for the president at all, not somebody who was 1023 01:03:56,720 --> 01:04:01,360 Speaker 1: I think fair minded in his approach to this investigation. 1024 01:04:01,480 --> 01:04:04,400 Speaker 1: That doesn't mean he didn't conduct a reasonably fair investigation, 1025 01:04:04,440 --> 01:04:06,160 Speaker 1: but I think that Muller someone who did not like 1026 01:04:06,320 --> 01:04:10,360 Speaker 1: President Trump, and that colored his thinking at different points. 1027 01:04:11,640 --> 01:04:14,200 Speaker 1: It certainly colored the thinking of somebody who, in that 1028 01:04:14,280 --> 01:04:16,840 Speaker 1: memo said it does not. It does not convict him, 1029 01:04:16,880 --> 01:04:19,960 Speaker 1: it does not exonerate him. That was unacceptable. It was 1030 01:04:20,080 --> 01:04:23,880 Speaker 1: very commiest moment, very reminiscent of James Comey with his 1031 01:04:23,960 --> 01:04:25,800 Speaker 1: Hillary did all these bad things, but we're not going 1032 01:04:25,840 --> 01:04:28,880 Speaker 1: to indict her for violations of the Espionage Act and 1033 01:04:28,920 --> 01:04:33,080 Speaker 1: obstruction of justice, I would note, which was far more 1034 01:04:33,120 --> 01:04:36,960 Speaker 1: obvious and far more clearly the case with Hillary Clinton 1035 01:04:37,320 --> 01:04:41,200 Speaker 1: than it was with anything having to do with Donald Trump. 1036 01:04:41,280 --> 01:04:45,680 Speaker 1: I mean, Hillary was destroying evidence. I mean, destroying evidence 1037 01:04:45,760 --> 01:04:47,640 Speaker 1: is about as clear obstruction as you're going to get. 1038 01:04:48,040 --> 01:04:50,520 Speaker 1: But they did not charge her. But they're not. The 1039 01:04:50,800 --> 01:04:52,560 Speaker 1: real point here is that they're not ending it. They're 1040 01:04:52,560 --> 01:04:54,760 Speaker 1: not going to shut down this investigation. They're not going 1041 01:04:54,800 --> 01:04:57,320 Speaker 1: to say, you know what, maybe we were just being 1042 01:04:57,320 --> 01:05:00,240 Speaker 1: completely insane for no reason, and enough as an enough, 1043 01:05:00,760 --> 01:05:04,439 Speaker 1: and we are going to move on with our lives 1044 01:05:04,480 --> 01:05:07,400 Speaker 1: here in some way. That's absolutely not going to happen. 1045 01:05:07,440 --> 01:05:10,520 Speaker 1: In fact, I still think the dumbest person in Congress 1046 01:05:10,600 --> 01:05:15,040 Speaker 1: is Senator Horono, although there's some competition for sure, but 1047 01:05:15,200 --> 01:05:18,080 Speaker 1: Senator Horrono has also said that, oh, they're just gonna 1048 01:05:18,160 --> 01:05:19,840 Speaker 1: keep They're gonna keep on this. They're gonna stay on 1049 01:05:19,880 --> 01:05:24,800 Speaker 1: this play twenty five. The president, who basically cares about 1050 01:05:24,840 --> 01:05:28,000 Speaker 1: protecting himself and money, that he will come out and 1051 01:05:28,040 --> 01:05:30,920 Speaker 1: say this is full examination, knowing that that is not 1052 01:05:30,960 --> 01:05:34,080 Speaker 1: the case at all. So meanwhile, the chairman of the 1053 01:05:34,120 --> 01:05:37,240 Speaker 1: Judiciary Committee will continue to do whatever he's going to 1054 01:05:37,320 --> 01:05:40,120 Speaker 1: do regarding Hillary because as long as there's a policy 1055 01:05:40,120 --> 01:05:42,360 Speaker 1: they want to go after the Clintons, we should be 1056 01:05:42,400 --> 01:05:45,760 Speaker 1: moving forward. At the same time, there's no question that 1057 01:05:45,800 --> 01:05:49,320 Speaker 1: the House committees are going to continue their investigations. So 1058 01:05:49,440 --> 01:05:53,240 Speaker 1: just because there was not enough evidence for criminal charge 1059 01:05:53,680 --> 01:05:57,959 Speaker 1: of conspiracy does not mean that this very cozy relationship 1060 01:05:58,080 --> 01:06:01,320 Speaker 1: that Donald Trump has with we're putting who, by the way, 1061 01:06:01,440 --> 01:06:04,960 Speaker 1: must be really happy that this came about, that this 1062 01:06:05,040 --> 01:06:07,440 Speaker 1: kind of clozy relationship that is not good for our 1063 01:06:07,440 --> 01:06:12,080 Speaker 1: country in that it's not transparent. We'll continue. First of all, 1064 01:06:12,120 --> 01:06:14,240 Speaker 1: you've got to get past all the babbling there of 1065 01:06:14,400 --> 01:06:17,440 Speaker 1: just just the nonsense, but the cozy Putin relationship and 1066 01:06:17,640 --> 01:06:19,480 Speaker 1: what does this have to do with anything? But I 1067 01:06:19,800 --> 01:06:27,240 Speaker 1: love how she immediately goes from on the one hand, 1068 01:06:27,680 --> 01:06:29,960 Speaker 1: moved past the Clinton component of this, Oh, let's not 1069 01:06:30,000 --> 01:06:32,800 Speaker 1: focus on the Clintons, and on the other but let's 1070 01:06:32,840 --> 01:06:37,720 Speaker 1: keep let's keep investigating Russia collusion. They've had a special 1071 01:06:37,760 --> 01:06:40,360 Speaker 1: counsel to look into that, it has been two years, 1072 01:06:40,440 --> 01:06:45,080 Speaker 1: it has been tens of millions of dollars, and that 1073 01:06:45,200 --> 01:06:46,600 Speaker 1: they won't give it up now. It just goes to 1074 01:06:46,640 --> 01:06:48,760 Speaker 1: show you that this was never about And one of 1075 01:06:48,800 --> 01:06:52,040 Speaker 1: the more frustrating lies that's told now is that this 1076 01:06:52,120 --> 01:06:57,800 Speaker 1: was just about finding out about Russian interference in the election. 1077 01:06:57,840 --> 01:07:00,760 Speaker 1: I mean, the interference in the election was an attempted 1078 01:07:00,840 --> 01:07:04,400 Speaker 1: interference in the election, as in the effectiveness of it 1079 01:07:04,480 --> 01:07:09,160 Speaker 1: is obviously zero. If the Russians were that good at 1080 01:07:09,160 --> 01:07:12,560 Speaker 1: turning a US election, they would have to have geniuses 1081 01:07:13,040 --> 01:07:16,920 Speaker 1: at American political propaganda. I mean, they would have to 1082 01:07:16,920 --> 01:07:19,560 Speaker 1: have the smartest team of people on the planets, smarter 1083 01:07:19,680 --> 01:07:22,680 Speaker 1: than all of the different political apparatuses in this country 1084 01:07:22,680 --> 01:07:25,480 Speaker 1: and all the different media and everything else, that was 1085 01:07:25,600 --> 01:07:29,520 Speaker 1: just able to tip the balance perfectly, just get those 1086 01:07:29,600 --> 01:07:33,120 Speaker 1: right voters to I mean, it's just it's a crazy fantasy. 1087 01:07:33,560 --> 01:07:36,520 Speaker 1: But this whole thing has been a crazy fantasy. And 1088 01:07:36,560 --> 01:07:38,480 Speaker 1: that's how we've known all along that when it comes 1089 01:07:38,480 --> 01:07:41,360 Speaker 1: to when the Mullar probe comes to an end, it 1090 01:07:41,400 --> 01:07:43,680 Speaker 1: does not mean that the rest of this will necessarily 1091 01:07:43,800 --> 01:07:49,640 Speaker 1: come to an end, because sure enough, they want to 1092 01:07:49,680 --> 01:07:52,440 Speaker 1: continue to use this as a harassment campaign against the president. 1093 01:07:52,480 --> 01:07:55,000 Speaker 1: They want to do everything that they can to make 1094 01:07:55,040 --> 01:08:00,120 Speaker 1: sure that they can subpoena people and subpoena documents and 1095 01:08:00,160 --> 01:08:04,920 Speaker 1: bring them down. And you know, it's it's just remarkable. 1096 01:08:05,760 --> 01:08:09,680 Speaker 1: It's just remarkable that they aren't even batting an eyelash 1097 01:08:09,680 --> 01:08:12,000 Speaker 1: as they say, Oh, yeah, you know, we're just gonna 1098 01:08:12,080 --> 01:08:16,519 Speaker 1: keep on keep on going here, but let's not investigate Hillary. 1099 01:08:16,680 --> 01:08:18,840 Speaker 1: I do believe that the only way to get Democrats 1100 01:08:18,840 --> 01:08:21,120 Speaker 1: to stop, the only way to fight back against the left, 1101 01:08:21,160 --> 01:08:24,800 Speaker 1: is to make them live under their own rules and 1102 01:08:24,840 --> 01:08:26,640 Speaker 1: also to do to them as they do to us. 1103 01:08:27,479 --> 01:08:31,519 Speaker 1: And that means that I think there's a very a 1104 01:08:31,640 --> 01:08:35,600 Speaker 1: very real argument to be made for appointing somebody to 1105 01:08:35,880 --> 01:08:38,000 Speaker 1: Now the Inspector General is looking at it, so that's 1106 01:08:38,000 --> 01:08:40,000 Speaker 1: what they would say, Inspector Generals looking at the Hillary 1107 01:08:40,000 --> 01:08:43,320 Speaker 1: Clinton situation. And it won't come out until next summer. 1108 01:08:43,400 --> 01:08:45,280 Speaker 1: Most likely. It's going to be a little while before 1109 01:08:45,320 --> 01:08:49,120 Speaker 1: that IG report is out. But I'm hoping that if 1110 01:08:49,160 --> 01:08:52,760 Speaker 1: there's enough in that IG report that there will be 1111 01:08:52,960 --> 01:08:55,400 Speaker 1: some accountability for someone along the way, because that's one 1112 01:08:55,400 --> 01:09:00,400 Speaker 1: of the losses here. We simply have not had enough 1113 01:09:00,479 --> 01:09:04,200 Speaker 1: people who are going to suffer real consequences for what 1114 01:09:04,400 --> 01:09:07,599 Speaker 1: has happened, not even close. In fact, I think very 1115 01:09:07,680 --> 01:09:10,120 Speaker 1: very few of any people. I'm even of the mind 1116 01:09:10,200 --> 01:09:14,559 Speaker 1: that McCabe is unlikely to face criminal charges for just 1117 01:09:14,640 --> 01:09:17,799 Speaker 1: lying under oath and which other people in the Muller 1118 01:09:17,880 --> 01:09:21,240 Speaker 1: probe haven't caught up in and serve jail time for. 1119 01:09:21,920 --> 01:09:23,800 Speaker 1: I think that McCabe is going to skate on that 1120 01:09:23,920 --> 01:09:29,040 Speaker 1: because he's part of that status establishment and they're just 1121 01:09:29,200 --> 01:09:31,760 Speaker 1: not going to want to go after him the way 1122 01:09:31,760 --> 01:09:34,800 Speaker 1: they've gone after others. But yeah, this doesn't and we 1123 01:09:34,880 --> 01:09:36,600 Speaker 1: knew it would. Now now it's all going to be 1124 01:09:36,680 --> 01:09:39,679 Speaker 1: more Southern District of New York. Although, hey, Southern District 1125 01:09:39,680 --> 01:09:42,200 Speaker 1: with Albanati. It's going to be Southern District of New York. 1126 01:09:42,200 --> 01:09:46,080 Speaker 1: It's going to be, oh, the big fight over Trump's taxes. 1127 01:09:46,120 --> 01:09:50,640 Speaker 1: And I can tell you this, of all the surefire 1128 01:09:50,800 --> 01:09:53,880 Speaker 1: nothing burgers that the Democrats have attached themselves too and 1129 01:09:53,960 --> 01:09:56,479 Speaker 1: made a huge deal out of of all the nothing 1130 01:09:56,479 --> 01:10:00,800 Speaker 1: burgers that anyone should know are just and to disappoint 1131 01:10:00,960 --> 01:10:02,960 Speaker 1: those who believe that there could be something else going 1132 01:10:02,960 --> 01:10:06,439 Speaker 1: on here. Trump's taxes are going to be boring as 1133 01:10:06,479 --> 01:10:10,439 Speaker 1: all hack. There's nothing in there that anyone should think 1134 01:10:11,120 --> 01:10:14,360 Speaker 1: is particularly interesting or is going to think is interesting 1135 01:10:14,479 --> 01:10:17,479 Speaker 1: or worthwhile. At this point, I think Trump just won't 1136 01:10:17,520 --> 01:10:19,439 Speaker 1: give it to them because they wanted so badly and 1137 01:10:19,479 --> 01:10:21,640 Speaker 1: he liked. Look, he's great at trolling the media. He 1138 01:10:21,680 --> 01:10:25,240 Speaker 1: knows this. He's great at messing with their heads. And 1139 01:10:25,400 --> 01:10:28,360 Speaker 1: that's part of his intransigence on the taxes issue, because 1140 01:10:28,360 --> 01:10:32,040 Speaker 1: the federal government already has it. I mean, the irs 1141 01:10:32,080 --> 01:10:38,519 Speaker 1: already has Donald Trump's entire tax history, and they could 1142 01:10:38,560 --> 01:10:39,960 Speaker 1: go through it. I mean they could. I'm sure they 1143 01:10:40,000 --> 01:10:42,240 Speaker 1: have audited him. I think he even said that he's 1144 01:10:42,320 --> 01:10:44,080 Speaker 1: under audit right now or it has been under audit, 1145 01:10:44,640 --> 01:10:46,719 Speaker 1: so the Feds have already been looking at this. I'm 1146 01:10:46,840 --> 01:10:50,640 Speaker 1: quite certain that there isn't some big wire transfusion from 1147 01:10:50,640 --> 01:10:54,559 Speaker 1: the Kremlin to President Trump for election collusion. I'm quite 1148 01:10:54,560 --> 01:10:59,719 Speaker 1: sure that some of the bizarre and completely silly theories 1149 01:10:59,760 --> 01:11:01,479 Speaker 1: out there are not going to be proven true. But 1150 01:11:01,520 --> 01:11:03,120 Speaker 1: they're gonna latch onto that and a whole lot more 1151 01:11:03,160 --> 01:11:05,080 Speaker 1: because they're not given up, folks. They don't care what 1152 01:11:05,080 --> 01:11:07,960 Speaker 1: the facts are. They never did. Yesterday, a rocket was 1153 01:11:08,000 --> 01:11:11,720 Speaker 1: fired from Gaza, deep inside Israel. It hit a home 1154 01:11:11,800 --> 01:11:15,799 Speaker 1: north of Tel Aviv. It wounded seven, including two small children, 1155 01:11:16,800 --> 01:11:20,320 Speaker 1: and miraculously no one was hurt, no one was killed. 1156 01:11:22,000 --> 01:11:25,600 Speaker 1: Israel will not tolerate this. I will not tolerate this. 1157 01:11:26,240 --> 01:11:29,519 Speaker 1: And as we speak, as I told you, mister President, 1158 01:11:29,640 --> 01:11:34,720 Speaker 1: just now, Israel is responding forcefully to this wanton aggression. 1159 01:11:35,880 --> 01:11:40,240 Speaker 1: I have a simple message to Israel's enemies. We will 1160 01:11:40,280 --> 01:11:44,880 Speaker 1: do whatever we must do to defend our people and 1161 01:11:44,960 --> 01:11:50,640 Speaker 1: defend our states. Net Yahoo today in a meeting with 1162 01:11:50,720 --> 01:11:55,080 Speaker 1: President Trump talking about recent Israeli actions in response to 1163 01:11:55,880 --> 01:11:59,080 Speaker 1: attacks from Hamas. We've got our friend David if Fun 1164 01:11:59,160 --> 01:12:01,040 Speaker 1: with us now. He is editor in chief of the 1165 01:12:01,520 --> 01:12:05,760 Speaker 1: Alga Miner. David, always great to have you, Always a 1166 01:12:05,800 --> 01:12:08,760 Speaker 1: pleasure buck. All right, So what first, let's just talk 1167 01:12:08,760 --> 01:12:12,240 Speaker 1: about this Hamas missile strike. What happened, what's the response, 1168 01:12:12,400 --> 01:12:13,960 Speaker 1: and what's sort of led up to this? What are 1169 01:12:13,960 --> 01:12:16,200 Speaker 1: the atmospherics we need to know about with regard to 1170 01:12:16,240 --> 01:12:21,360 Speaker 1: Israel and Hamas? Right now? Why are the tensions ratcheting up? Well? Look, 1171 01:12:21,400 --> 01:12:25,000 Speaker 1: the tensions are always there, simmiling, simmering below the surface, 1172 01:12:25,720 --> 01:12:28,240 Speaker 1: and what they now, who said is right? I mean, 1173 01:12:28,280 --> 01:12:31,120 Speaker 1: I don't know if if anyone listening has had a 1174 01:12:31,200 --> 01:12:34,000 Speaker 1: chance to look at the images and not the images 1175 01:12:34,040 --> 01:12:36,839 Speaker 1: that you're seeing sort of on the main Sti media outlets, 1176 01:12:36,880 --> 01:12:40,120 Speaker 1: but you know the images that are circulating within Israel. 1177 01:12:40,680 --> 01:12:43,960 Speaker 1: You know, you actually see the roof caved in, you 1178 01:12:44,080 --> 01:12:47,200 Speaker 1: see the house in ruins, and you see the little 1179 01:12:47,400 --> 01:12:51,920 Speaker 1: child's crib right there underneath the rebels. So it really 1180 01:12:52,040 --> 01:12:56,760 Speaker 1: was miraculous that the damage wasn't wasn't more severe here. Um, 1181 01:12:57,200 --> 01:12:59,920 Speaker 1: you know, in terms of what's behind it and why 1182 01:13:00,040 --> 01:13:02,280 Speaker 1: we're seeing this now, we've seen a few explanations over 1183 01:13:02,280 --> 01:13:06,080 Speaker 1: the past few weeks. There were certainly different theories in 1184 01:13:06,200 --> 01:13:09,920 Speaker 1: terms of, you know, whether Hamas wants to influence the 1185 01:13:10,000 --> 01:13:15,400 Speaker 1: Israeli elections in some way over the over the coming weeks. 1186 01:13:15,400 --> 01:13:18,519 Speaker 1: You know they're coming up pretty soon. But the truth 1187 01:13:18,680 --> 01:13:22,080 Speaker 1: is that, you know, this is the worst impact that 1188 01:13:22,160 --> 01:13:25,040 Speaker 1: we've seen from Gaza rockets for a very, very long time, 1189 01:13:25,760 --> 01:13:29,360 Speaker 1: and the Israelia response has really been ferocious. They've been 1190 01:13:29,760 --> 01:13:35,519 Speaker 1: targeting Hamas control centers and terrorist sites all the way 1191 01:13:35,600 --> 01:13:37,840 Speaker 1: up and down the full length of the strip, including 1192 01:13:39,360 --> 01:13:45,400 Speaker 1: taking down the Hamas central headquarters of Prime Minister Ishmael Haneam. 1193 01:13:46,160 --> 01:13:50,639 Speaker 1: And you know that that's a significant response. That's sort 1194 01:13:50,640 --> 01:13:53,479 Speaker 1: of led to talks of a ceasefire now that's being 1195 01:13:53,520 --> 01:13:55,639 Speaker 1: mediated by Egypt. They say it's going to go into 1196 01:13:55,680 --> 01:14:01,000 Speaker 1: effect at ten pm tonight, so we'll see how that goes. 1197 01:14:01,160 --> 01:14:05,439 Speaker 1: You know, these c S fires are notoriously shaky. So 1198 01:14:06,560 --> 01:14:11,120 Speaker 1: and David, this comes right after President Trump. President Trump 1199 01:14:11,520 --> 01:14:16,160 Speaker 1: announced this policy of recognizing the goal on Heights as 1200 01:14:16,320 --> 01:14:19,400 Speaker 1: Israeli territory. Just can you speak to what's the significance 1201 01:14:19,400 --> 01:14:21,439 Speaker 1: of that and how is that being received in Israel. 1202 01:14:24,120 --> 01:14:27,880 Speaker 1: Israelis are ecstatic about this across the board, and it 1203 01:14:28,240 --> 01:14:31,519 Speaker 1: really is significance. What President Trump said is right that 1204 01:14:31,600 --> 01:14:34,720 Speaker 1: this should have been recognized years and years and years ago. 1205 01:14:34,760 --> 01:14:36,920 Speaker 1: I mean, the history of that is simple. In nineteen 1206 01:14:37,000 --> 01:14:42,479 Speaker 1: sixty seven, during the Six Day War, Syria invaded Israel 1207 01:14:43,000 --> 01:14:46,800 Speaker 1: from the girl and Heights, which have there are strategic elevation, 1208 01:14:46,920 --> 01:14:50,400 Speaker 1: so that it's a very significant from a security perspective. 1209 01:14:51,680 --> 01:14:56,719 Speaker 1: It was a very hard fought battle in which Israel 1210 01:14:57,000 --> 01:15:01,320 Speaker 1: won back the heights at the cost of the lives 1211 01:15:01,360 --> 01:15:05,639 Speaker 1: of many good men. And you know, for for years 1212 01:15:05,680 --> 01:15:08,640 Speaker 1: and years and years, there's been talked that, you know, 1213 01:15:08,680 --> 01:15:14,120 Speaker 1: the famous resolution two for two, that Israel would return territories, 1214 01:15:14,200 --> 01:15:17,200 Speaker 1: not all the territories, that very specifically doesn't use the 1215 01:15:17,240 --> 01:15:20,160 Speaker 1: word all the territies, just says territories that have gained 1216 01:15:20,200 --> 01:15:23,320 Speaker 1: during that war. But it's one has always maintained that 1217 01:15:23,640 --> 01:15:27,479 Speaker 1: returning the Girl on Heights would be something that would 1218 01:15:27,560 --> 01:15:31,800 Speaker 1: be very strategically significant, and especially considering how things have 1219 01:15:31,880 --> 01:15:35,960 Speaker 1: been developing is Syria lately, where it's either Isis or 1220 01:15:36,000 --> 01:15:38,920 Speaker 1: Iran that's going to control that area. So it's reached 1221 01:15:38,920 --> 01:15:42,559 Speaker 1: the point where there isn't even according to those who 1222 01:15:42,640 --> 01:15:46,120 Speaker 1: think it should be returned for whatever reason, you know, 1223 01:15:46,160 --> 01:15:48,240 Speaker 1: there's no logical way to give it back to any 1224 01:15:48,240 --> 01:15:51,240 Speaker 1: of those two parties. So, you know, putting all of 1225 01:15:51,240 --> 01:15:54,760 Speaker 1: those elements together, the White House has said, you know, 1226 01:15:54,880 --> 01:15:58,080 Speaker 1: enough is enough. Um, you know, Israel one that territory 1227 01:15:58,240 --> 01:16:01,800 Speaker 1: in a in a defensive war, and in any case, 1228 01:16:01,840 --> 01:16:04,600 Speaker 1: there's nobody to give the territory back to, So you know, 1229 01:16:04,640 --> 01:16:07,679 Speaker 1: we're going to go with with Israel's view. Israeli next 1230 01:16:07,720 --> 01:16:10,559 Speaker 1: bit decades ago. So we're going to back Israel's position. 1231 01:16:10,880 --> 01:16:14,280 Speaker 1: This is Israeli territory, and hopefully more countries around the 1232 01:16:14,280 --> 01:16:18,160 Speaker 1: world will flow. What was the hold up with other administrations? 1233 01:16:18,160 --> 01:16:20,840 Speaker 1: I mean, the case you just laid out seems pretty straightforward. 1234 01:16:20,880 --> 01:16:25,120 Speaker 1: So why did the Obama administration do this? Well, you know, 1235 01:16:26,000 --> 01:16:33,280 Speaker 1: under the Obama administration, there was certainly, uh, some some sympathies. 1236 01:16:33,320 --> 01:16:35,400 Speaker 1: And you know, this is this is a long complex discussion. 1237 01:16:35,439 --> 01:16:38,479 Speaker 1: There are lots of different parts to it, but there 1238 01:16:38,560 --> 01:16:43,120 Speaker 1: was a sympathy, a sympathy towards the Iranian position. The 1239 01:16:43,160 --> 01:16:46,479 Speaker 1: Iranians were obviously allied with the Syrians in the Syrian 1240 01:16:46,560 --> 01:16:50,640 Speaker 1: Civil War. It's the same reason that the abadministration was 1241 01:16:50,720 --> 01:16:55,320 Speaker 1: reluctant to back the opposition at the beginning. They didn't 1242 01:16:55,360 --> 01:16:58,800 Speaker 1: want to, um, you know, do too much that could 1243 01:16:59,240 --> 01:17:02,719 Speaker 1: upset the Ranians at that time. Obviously, this is something 1244 01:17:02,800 --> 01:17:05,080 Speaker 1: that that's that would be uh, you know, it's a 1245 01:17:05,120 --> 01:17:08,679 Speaker 1: big loss to the Iranian position in that country. And 1246 01:17:09,160 --> 01:17:16,200 Speaker 1: you know, the Obama administration was notoriously sensitive to Iranian concerns, 1247 01:17:17,000 --> 01:17:19,080 Speaker 1: which I think could have been the major factor behind this, 1248 01:17:19,479 --> 01:17:21,600 Speaker 1: which of course is unfortunate and has led to no 1249 01:17:21,720 --> 01:17:25,240 Speaker 1: end of trouble that the position that the above administration took. 1250 01:17:25,600 --> 01:17:29,000 Speaker 1: Having said that, it's refreshing that this administration is taking 1251 01:17:29,400 --> 01:17:34,880 Speaker 1: a completely completely different approach which is fair and fast 1252 01:17:34,880 --> 01:17:39,080 Speaker 1: sighted and moral, just and ultimately will benefit the security 1253 01:17:39,120 --> 01:17:43,160 Speaker 1: of the region in the world. And Prime Minister and 1254 01:17:43,320 --> 01:17:47,240 Speaker 1: Yahoo today said that in his remarks that Israel has 1255 01:17:47,240 --> 01:17:49,560 Speaker 1: had many friends in the White House in this country, 1256 01:17:49,800 --> 01:17:52,200 Speaker 1: but that there is no that Israel has had no 1257 01:17:52,439 --> 01:17:55,240 Speaker 1: better friend than President Donald Trump. I mean, is that 1258 01:17:55,360 --> 01:17:59,760 Speaker 1: sentiment pretty pretty universal back back in Israel? I mean, 1259 01:18:00,000 --> 01:18:03,920 Speaker 1: our folks, how do folks over their view this presidency. Yeah, 1260 01:18:03,960 --> 01:18:06,479 Speaker 1: it's pretty universal back in Israel. You know, there are 1261 01:18:06,520 --> 01:18:10,120 Speaker 1: two countries in the world where President Trump is more 1262 01:18:10,160 --> 01:18:12,960 Speaker 1: popular than he is in the United States, and one 1263 01:18:13,000 --> 01:18:17,280 Speaker 1: of those countries is Israel. Across the board, he received 1264 01:18:17,320 --> 01:18:21,000 Speaker 1: praise for this decision. Obviously, there's a great deal to 1265 01:18:21,000 --> 01:18:24,439 Speaker 1: say about President Trump. But you know, I spent many 1266 01:18:24,439 --> 01:18:29,000 Speaker 1: hours with ambassadors and ministers and advisors to the Prime Minister, 1267 01:18:29,439 --> 01:18:32,360 Speaker 1: and I can tell you that they literally cannot believe 1268 01:18:32,400 --> 01:18:35,320 Speaker 1: their luck with this administration. I mean on all the 1269 01:18:35,439 --> 01:18:40,960 Speaker 1: key issues that are important to them, on Iran, on Jerusalem, 1270 01:18:41,160 --> 01:18:45,519 Speaker 1: on Palestinian payments of terrorists, on bias against Israel, the 1271 01:18:45,600 --> 01:18:51,559 Speaker 1: United Nations, on to Golan Heights. I mean, it's just 1272 01:18:52,040 --> 01:18:55,920 Speaker 1: there's a never ending stream of favorable positions that this 1273 01:18:55,960 --> 01:18:59,400 Speaker 1: administration has taken on issues that have been of huge 1274 01:18:59,400 --> 01:19:04,639 Speaker 1: importance and with very broad political consensus throughout Israel, from 1275 01:19:04,680 --> 01:19:08,799 Speaker 1: from parties across the Aisle. So there's absolutely no question 1276 01:19:08,840 --> 01:19:12,479 Speaker 1: that this president is adored in the Jewish State. And 1277 01:19:13,000 --> 01:19:15,160 Speaker 1: you know, taking everything else out of the equation and 1278 01:19:15,240 --> 01:19:18,160 Speaker 1: looking solely at the positions that he's taken, I think 1279 01:19:18,160 --> 01:19:19,920 Speaker 1: it's hard to make the case that there has ever 1280 01:19:19,960 --> 01:19:24,520 Speaker 1: been a position that's taken persistently taken more favorable positions 1281 01:19:24,680 --> 01:19:30,040 Speaker 1: visa Israel's security consent than this president has. And as 1282 01:19:30,080 --> 01:19:32,960 Speaker 1: for a Net and Yahoo's political prospects, I mean, I 1283 01:19:33,000 --> 01:19:35,439 Speaker 1: think we had you on recently, David, to talk about 1284 01:19:35,520 --> 01:19:37,840 Speaker 1: the prospect of an indictment of Net and Yahoo in 1285 01:19:37,920 --> 01:19:41,200 Speaker 1: Israeli criminal court. What is this guy's what's his status? 1286 01:19:41,360 --> 01:19:44,719 Speaker 1: How are things going? Well? Look the way the things 1287 01:19:44,760 --> 01:19:47,599 Speaker 1: work in Israel, Um, it takes a while to these 1288 01:19:47,640 --> 01:19:50,800 Speaker 1: things to to process. I mean, some of some of 1289 01:19:50,840 --> 01:19:55,879 Speaker 1: these investigations and indictment and and you know, the process 1290 01:19:56,160 --> 01:20:01,960 Speaker 1: of you know, prosecuting or tempt to prosecute someone in 1291 01:20:01,960 --> 01:20:04,160 Speaker 1: that position could take a very, very long time. So 1292 01:20:04,200 --> 01:20:06,680 Speaker 1: it's rail's a kind of use to political life continuing 1293 01:20:07,760 --> 01:20:12,160 Speaker 1: with these sort of legal issues taking place in the background. 1294 01:20:12,680 --> 01:20:16,640 Speaker 1: So the announcement happened early enough that it seems that 1295 01:20:16,720 --> 01:20:19,759 Speaker 1: it's sort of baked into the numbers that we're seeing 1296 01:20:19,800 --> 01:20:23,280 Speaker 1: today at this stage, and the decision that Israelis are 1297 01:20:23,320 --> 01:20:26,599 Speaker 1: going to make is not likely to take the legal 1298 01:20:26,640 --> 01:20:29,759 Speaker 1: issues into account too much. I mean, now the question 1299 01:20:29,800 --> 01:20:33,080 Speaker 1: really is, you know, Naho's been there for a decade. 1300 01:20:33,479 --> 01:20:36,400 Speaker 1: He's the longest serving prime minister ever I think, or 1301 01:20:36,439 --> 01:20:38,960 Speaker 1: the second longest. It's very close with David being around. 1302 01:20:40,000 --> 01:20:42,240 Speaker 1: And the question is, you know, whether it's rays are 1303 01:20:42,240 --> 01:20:45,120 Speaker 1: going to say time to try somebody new. But certainly 1304 01:20:45,160 --> 01:20:47,880 Speaker 1: there's a lot of appreciation for nit Nyahu and what 1305 01:20:48,000 --> 01:20:51,920 Speaker 1: he's done for the country on security front, on the 1306 01:20:51,960 --> 01:20:56,360 Speaker 1: diplomatic front, on the economic front. And you know, in 1307 01:20:56,439 --> 01:20:58,519 Speaker 1: the end of the day, that's the choice that the 1308 01:20:58,560 --> 01:21:00,400 Speaker 1: people in the country are going to make. Do they 1309 01:21:00,400 --> 01:21:04,000 Speaker 1: want to have someone who has proven effectiveness or you know, 1310 01:21:04,040 --> 01:21:05,920 Speaker 1: are they ready to try somebody knew is the time 1311 01:21:05,960 --> 01:21:08,040 Speaker 1: for somebody knew it? Yeah, that's really how it works 1312 01:21:08,040 --> 01:21:11,000 Speaker 1: in democracies. You know, you've got you've gotta change things 1313 01:21:11,040 --> 01:21:13,680 Speaker 1: up a little bit every once in a while. So, um, 1314 01:21:13,880 --> 01:21:15,920 Speaker 1: just just telling any just telling that Yahu and anybody 1315 01:21:15,920 --> 01:21:18,680 Speaker 1: else who's running, just don't don't don't talk to any 1316 01:21:18,760 --> 01:21:21,320 Speaker 1: Russians because that can that can cause problems for you, apparently, 1317 01:21:21,720 --> 01:21:24,200 Speaker 1: David to food and everybody.

There are some 1322 01:21:38,120 --> 01:21:41,320 Speaker 1: idiosyncratic topics that I like to talk about on this show. 1323 01:21:41,360 --> 01:21:44,040 Speaker 1: You know that, right. There are certain things like occasionally 1324 01:21:44,080 --> 01:21:46,320 Speaker 1: I just need to tell you about the dangers of 1325 01:21:46,360 --> 01:21:49,400 Speaker 1: carpet sharks, you know, and how they look all cute 1326 01:21:49,439 --> 01:21:51,800 Speaker 1: and little weener dogs and the whole thing. But then 1327 01:21:52,360 --> 01:21:55,320 Speaker 1: you know, you lift it up at the baby shower 1328 01:21:55,439 --> 01:21:58,120 Speaker 1: in front of like all your girlfriend's friends and it 1329 01:21:58,160 --> 01:22:01,040 Speaker 1: tries to bite your face off, you know, So I 1330 01:22:01,120 --> 01:22:02,840 Speaker 1: just want to I want to warn you about that. See, 1331 01:22:02,880 --> 01:22:06,840 Speaker 1: you need to understand that a decrepit, ancient looking docs 1332 01:22:06,880 --> 01:22:10,400 Speaker 1: and aka carpet shark can be dangerous. Also, I'm a 1333 01:22:10,439 --> 01:22:12,960 Speaker 1: big proponent of and this is going to tie into 1334 01:22:13,000 --> 01:22:17,960 Speaker 1: our topic here, of comfortable footwear. This is why some 1335 01:22:18,000 --> 01:22:20,000 Speaker 1: of you have seen before I've even gone on national 1336 01:22:20,000 --> 01:22:23,840 Speaker 1: TV wearing old beat up boat shoes also known as 1337 01:22:23,880 --> 01:22:27,920 Speaker 1: my sperries. And you say, Buck, you shouldn't. Well, I know, 1338 01:22:28,160 --> 01:22:29,679 Speaker 1: usually I think they're not going to see my feet. 1339 01:22:29,680 --> 01:22:32,719 Speaker 1: It's just occasionally because the TV shot, they may see 1340 01:22:32,800 --> 01:22:37,920 Speaker 1: my feet. But you want to have comfortable feet. It's 1341 01:22:38,160 --> 01:22:41,160 Speaker 1: very important to have comfortable feet in life as a 1342 01:22:41,200 --> 01:22:43,320 Speaker 1: general thing. And I try to convince I might trying 1343 01:22:43,320 --> 01:22:45,800 Speaker 1: to be sexist here, I'm trying to be anti sexist. 1344 01:22:46,000 --> 01:22:48,840 Speaker 1: I try to ladies out there that if you're you know, 1345 01:22:48,920 --> 01:22:51,519 Speaker 1: if it's night out on the town, or you're you know, 1346 01:22:51,520 --> 01:22:54,040 Speaker 1: you're going to like a fancy dinner party or you know, 1347 01:22:54,280 --> 01:22:57,320 Speaker 1: going out whatever, going out to a gallah or whatever, 1348 01:22:57,400 --> 01:23:00,760 Speaker 1: people do who actually have social lives. Yeah, of course, 1349 01:23:00,840 --> 01:23:02,519 Speaker 1: high heels you go over the whole thing. But when 1350 01:23:02,520 --> 01:23:05,960 Speaker 1: I see women walking into the office in heels, I 1351 01:23:06,040 --> 01:23:08,559 Speaker 1: just always want to say, you know, that's got a hurt. 1352 01:23:08,880 --> 01:23:11,000 Speaker 1: That can't be fun. You know, that's not how I 1353 01:23:11,120 --> 01:23:13,920 Speaker 1: go If I were you, then again, I believe or not, 1354 01:23:13,960 --> 01:23:16,080 Speaker 1: don't have much experience walking around Niels, I don't really 1355 01:23:16,080 --> 01:23:19,759 Speaker 1: know what I'm talking about, but men's suits are another 1356 01:23:20,040 --> 01:23:22,920 Speaker 1: area of my ire because I just think that the 1357 01:23:23,520 --> 01:23:28,799 Speaker 1: traditional men's western suit is not a very comfortable garment. 1358 01:23:29,760 --> 01:23:34,080 Speaker 1: I'm really more okay with the suit jacket. Suit jackets 1359 01:23:34,080 --> 01:23:36,280 Speaker 1: don't really bother me, although they're never that comfortable, but 1360 01:23:36,360 --> 01:23:38,960 Speaker 1: they they can be pretty good. Suit Pants, though, are terrible, 1361 01:23:39,400 --> 01:23:43,280 Speaker 1: and wool, which, as we know, most especially winter suits, 1362 01:23:43,320 --> 01:23:45,960 Speaker 1: you gotta have it in wool. Wool is not a 1363 01:23:46,040 --> 01:23:48,960 Speaker 1: very comfortable fabric compared to other stuff that's out there now. 1364 01:23:49,160 --> 01:23:51,599 Speaker 1: Now people send to me, Buck, you sound like a savage, 1365 01:23:51,600 --> 01:23:53,120 Speaker 1: what is wrong with you? And to that I say, 1366 01:23:53,200 --> 01:23:57,040 Speaker 1: I understand that I'm breaking with the consensus here, But 1367 01:23:57,200 --> 01:23:58,880 Speaker 1: for all of you who have to wear suits to work, 1368 01:23:58,920 --> 01:24:02,240 Speaker 1: you know what I'm talking about, and it really confines you. 1369 01:24:02,600 --> 01:24:04,559 Speaker 1: And there's also no such thing as a suit, let's 1370 01:24:04,560 --> 01:24:07,040 Speaker 1: be honest. Unless for those of the audience that have 1371 01:24:07,120 --> 01:24:10,280 Speaker 1: a you know that have washboard abs, congrats, and we 1372 01:24:10,360 --> 01:24:15,000 Speaker 1: all secretly are jealous. But you know, if you sit down, 1373 01:24:15,000 --> 01:24:17,519 Speaker 1: you're wearing a men's suit and you in its wool, 1374 01:24:18,120 --> 01:24:19,960 Speaker 1: it has very little stretched and so it tends to 1375 01:24:19,960 --> 01:24:21,720 Speaker 1: not be very comfortable when you sit down, because some 1376 01:24:21,720 --> 01:24:23,519 Speaker 1: people have a little bit of a tumtum that can 1377 01:24:23,560 --> 01:24:26,080 Speaker 1: form when you sit down. So I'm just saying suits 1378 01:24:26,120 --> 01:24:28,600 Speaker 1: are not a lot of fun. Turns out I'm not 1379 01:24:28,640 --> 01:24:30,960 Speaker 1: alone in this. One. Wall Street Journal is a piece 1380 01:24:30,960 --> 01:24:34,560 Speaker 1: today that says men ditch suits and retailers are struggling 1381 01:24:34,600 --> 01:24:38,880 Speaker 1: to adapt. You have more and more major companies and 1382 01:24:39,040 --> 01:24:42,400 Speaker 1: organizations that are saying that you no longer have to 1383 01:24:42,439 --> 01:24:45,719 Speaker 1: wear a suit in the office. In fact, Goldman Sacks, 1384 01:24:46,360 --> 01:24:51,240 Speaker 1: which is a very fancy place, as you know, most 1385 01:24:51,240 --> 01:24:54,280 Speaker 1: famous investment bank and most powerful investment bank. I think 1386 01:24:54,320 --> 01:24:57,759 Speaker 1: you could say in the world they no longer require 1387 01:24:57,760 --> 01:25:00,080 Speaker 1: their employees to wear a suit in the office. And 1388 01:25:00,080 --> 01:25:02,880 Speaker 1: there are only a couple of high powered law firms 1389 01:25:02,920 --> 01:25:06,240 Speaker 1: in New York that still require suit and tie. I 1390 01:25:06,280 --> 01:25:08,519 Speaker 1: think suits might be required, but not suit and tie. 1391 01:25:09,080 --> 01:25:10,880 Speaker 1: There's only a couple, and people are moving away from this. 1392 01:25:11,640 --> 01:25:14,200 Speaker 1: A tie is kind of a ridiculous thing, and you've 1393 01:25:14,200 --> 01:25:16,360 Speaker 1: probably noticed that I wear ties less those you see 1394 01:25:16,360 --> 01:25:17,920 Speaker 1: me on Fox that were ties less than I used to, 1395 01:25:18,040 --> 01:25:20,559 Speaker 1: because yes, I know, it kind of completes the look, 1396 01:25:20,560 --> 01:25:24,000 Speaker 1: and there's a formality and a and a you know, 1397 01:25:24,200 --> 01:25:26,840 Speaker 1: pulls it all together vibe to wearing the right tie. 1398 01:25:27,240 --> 01:25:30,000 Speaker 1: But it's it's pretty ridiculous. You know, you're tying this 1399 01:25:30,080 --> 01:25:32,479 Speaker 1: rope around your neck. Basically, it's not a very not 1400 01:25:32,520 --> 01:25:34,600 Speaker 1: a very wise thing. Tactically for those of you that 1401 01:25:34,640 --> 01:25:36,840 Speaker 1: are from the tactical community, you know, you don't want 1402 01:25:36,840 --> 01:25:38,640 Speaker 1: to have something tied around your neck like that, just 1403 01:25:38,720 --> 01:25:43,040 Speaker 1: inviting the enemy to take advantage. But suits are now 1404 01:25:43,160 --> 01:25:46,360 Speaker 1: on the way out. In fact, suits are down eight 1405 01:25:46,560 --> 01:25:50,920 Speaker 1: percent since twenty fifteen the men's suit market, and it's 1406 01:25:51,000 --> 01:25:54,080 Speaker 1: almost two billion dollars. People are not spending as much 1407 01:25:54,120 --> 01:25:56,080 Speaker 1: money on suits anymore, you know, And I think one 1408 01:25:56,080 --> 01:25:58,800 Speaker 1: of the reasons for that is that, first of all, 1409 01:25:59,040 --> 01:26:02,320 Speaker 1: you know, a suit that is really gonna fit you well, 1410 01:26:02,680 --> 01:26:04,920 Speaker 1: is going to be custom made off the rack is 1411 01:26:04,960 --> 01:26:07,479 Speaker 1: pretty tough to get totally right, because look, we all 1412 01:26:07,479 --> 01:26:09,400 Speaker 1: have different sized bodies. It doesn't make any sense right 1413 01:26:09,439 --> 01:26:13,480 Speaker 1: that a suit which has certain fixed especially in the shoulders, 1414 01:26:13,520 --> 01:26:15,519 Speaker 1: and you know there are fixed parts of it that 1415 01:26:15,560 --> 01:26:18,639 Speaker 1: you can't really adjust all that much, and it's it's 1416 01:26:18,680 --> 01:26:21,880 Speaker 1: difficult for you to find or just be lucky maybe 1417 01:26:21,920 --> 01:26:23,720 Speaker 1: you know, sometimes you'll get well and you say, oh, 1418 01:26:23,720 --> 01:26:26,439 Speaker 1: this fits me perfectly, but usually not. But now you 1419 01:26:26,439 --> 01:26:29,040 Speaker 1: get people that are wearing these the equivalent of men's 1420 01:26:29,160 --> 01:26:32,920 Speaker 1: yoga pants to work and Lulu Lemon for men. Lu 1421 01:26:33,040 --> 01:26:37,240 Speaker 1: Lemon is a very trendy and high end athletic apparel company. 1422 01:26:37,360 --> 01:26:40,680 Speaker 1: Lu Lemon men's pants are now And you know what 1423 01:26:40,680 --> 01:26:43,800 Speaker 1: I'm team. I'm not gonna hide this from you. I 1424 01:26:43,840 --> 01:26:47,439 Speaker 1: own a pair of lu Lemon men's pants. You've never 1425 01:26:47,439 --> 01:26:49,360 Speaker 1: seen me. I haven't posted any photos to be wearing 1426 01:26:49,360 --> 01:26:51,240 Speaker 1: them anything that they're not tight. So before you think 1427 01:26:51,240 --> 01:26:54,160 Speaker 1: that I'm walking around in the male version of yoga pants, 1428 01:26:54,200 --> 01:26:58,519 Speaker 1: they are not tight. But they are I will tell 1429 01:26:58,560 --> 01:27:03,080 Speaker 1: you they are incredibly comfortable. And once you start wearing 1430 01:27:03,120 --> 01:27:04,559 Speaker 1: them around a little bit, you're like, you know what, 1431 01:27:04,960 --> 01:27:06,680 Speaker 1: I don't think I really want to. You know, an 1432 01:27:06,720 --> 01:27:08,840 Speaker 1: old pair of blue jeans pretty good, because blue jeans 1433 01:27:08,880 --> 01:27:10,400 Speaker 1: can kind of mold to you a little bit. The 1434 01:27:10,439 --> 01:27:13,240 Speaker 1: cotton stretches in a way that you know, blue jeans 1435 01:27:13,280 --> 01:27:16,760 Speaker 1: definitely have a comfort level of other pants, but you know, 1436 01:27:16,800 --> 01:27:20,000 Speaker 1: you can compare it to things like corduroy and these 1437 01:27:20,040 --> 01:27:22,920 Speaker 1: other and any kind of wool suit pants. Not even close, 1438 01:27:23,640 --> 01:27:25,360 Speaker 1: not even close. So I'm really hoping that we can 1439 01:27:25,400 --> 01:27:29,080 Speaker 1: all move in part of our evolution as a species, 1440 01:27:29,080 --> 01:27:32,479 Speaker 1: the human beings, we can stop thinking that we have 1441 01:27:32,600 --> 01:27:37,400 Speaker 1: to maintain these old fashioned trends of using uncomfortable, particularly 1442 01:27:37,479 --> 01:27:40,439 Speaker 1: heavy and not very breathable fabric, because folks, you only 1443 01:27:40,479 --> 01:27:43,160 Speaker 1: go through life once, shouldn't we shouldn't our clothing be comfortable. 1444 01:27:43,760 --> 01:27:45,360 Speaker 1: You know, there's a guy who tried to hop on 1445 01:27:45,400 --> 01:27:49,479 Speaker 1: a plane in Russia and said, and he was totally naked. 1446 01:27:49,560 --> 01:27:50,880 Speaker 1: This was in the news today. A New York pro 1447 01:27:50,960 --> 01:27:53,760 Speaker 1: support on this totally naked and they jumped on the plane. 1448 01:27:53,800 --> 01:27:59,400 Speaker 1: He said, well, understand, he's more aerodynamic. That's actually what 1449 01:27:59,400 --> 01:28:02,679 Speaker 1: I said. It's more aerodynamic because he got on plane naked. Now, 1450 01:28:02,800 --> 01:28:04,840 Speaker 1: before we cast any judgment on this man, do we 1451 01:28:04,880 --> 01:28:07,000 Speaker 1: know if he has a degree in astrophysics? I don't, 1452 01:28:07,439 --> 01:28:09,679 Speaker 1: so I don't know if I'm necessarily going to say 1453 01:28:09,720 --> 01:28:14,840 Speaker 1: that he's wrong. Is naked more aerodynamic than clothed? I 1454 01:28:14,880 --> 01:28:18,439 Speaker 1: think the answer is probably yes, although maybe it depends 1455 01:28:18,439 --> 01:28:20,320 Speaker 1: on your proportions and the kind of clothing you're wearing. 1456 01:28:21,080 --> 01:28:22,960 Speaker 1: But I like to think outside the box team, and 1457 01:28:23,000 --> 01:28:27,439 Speaker 1: I think that the suit, the suit and tie, I'm 1458 01:28:27,439 --> 01:28:29,800 Speaker 1: hoping we evolve out of it. I think, first of all, 1459 01:28:29,800 --> 01:28:33,040 Speaker 1: it hasn't been around that long, and I think it's 1460 01:28:33,240 --> 01:28:35,400 Speaker 1: it's time to say bye bye to the tie. You 1461 01:28:35,479 --> 01:28:37,640 Speaker 1: really don't want anything around your neck like that. And 1462 01:28:37,760 --> 01:28:41,800 Speaker 1: wool suit pants are just they're itchy, they're uncomfortable, they're 1463 01:28:41,960 --> 01:28:45,120 Speaker 1: they're just generally not the kind of stuff that you 1464 01:28:45,160 --> 01:28:48,360 Speaker 1: want to be wearing. And Lulu Lemon, maybe you don't 1465 01:28:48,360 --> 01:28:50,639 Speaker 1: like Lue Lemon, but you know, when under Armor comes 1466 01:28:50,640 --> 01:28:53,040 Speaker 1: out with pants that you can wear to the office, 1467 01:28:53,080 --> 01:28:54,720 Speaker 1: I'm telling you some of you are going to put 1468 01:28:54,720 --> 01:28:58,400 Speaker 1: them on. You're gonna say, stretchy, stretchy in my pants. 1469 01:28:58,840 --> 01:29:01,320 Speaker 1: That sounds weird, but you know what I mean. Stretch pants. 1470 01:29:01,760 --> 01:29:03,920 Speaker 1: They're a good thing. Not just for the ladies, the 1471 01:29:03,960 --> 01:29:06,479 Speaker 1: guys at there too. This has been Buck's fashion segment 1472 01:29:06,600 --> 01:29:12,040 Speaker 1: for the show today. We'll be right back later this week. 1473 01:29:12,160 --> 01:29:16,040 Speaker 1: I'm going to be in El Paso, Texas, and I 1474 01:29:16,080 --> 01:29:20,200 Speaker 1: will be talking to Immigrations and Customs Enforcement and members 1475 01:29:20,200 --> 01:29:24,640 Speaker 1: of Border Patrol about what's going on at the in 1476 01:29:24,640 --> 01:29:30,280 Speaker 1: the Rio Grand sector of Texas, because we're already getting 1477 01:29:30,400 --> 01:29:34,920 Speaker 1: early reports that the number of migrants at the border 1478 01:29:35,120 --> 01:29:37,559 Speaker 1: is it has just exploded over the last month. We 1479 01:29:37,680 --> 01:29:42,080 Speaker 1: certainly have anecdotal reporting about how these facilities are overwhelmed 1480 01:29:42,160 --> 01:29:45,320 Speaker 1: and how there's just no real plan in place for 1481 01:29:45,400 --> 01:29:49,360 Speaker 1: dealing with this. And Axios today has this up exclusive 1482 01:29:49,479 --> 01:29:53,880 Speaker 1: DHS data shows growing surge of migrants at the border, 1483 01:29:54,760 --> 01:29:58,519 Speaker 1: and this is from a new department, new Department of 1484 01:29:58,520 --> 01:30:05,040 Speaker 1: Homelet Security data obtained by Axios. They don't give real 1485 01:30:05,560 --> 01:30:07,559 Speaker 1: numbers in here, which I think is interesting, and they 1486 01:30:07,600 --> 01:30:12,680 Speaker 1: certainly couldn't give numbers for the month because obviously the 1487 01:30:12,680 --> 01:30:15,240 Speaker 1: month is not over yet, so they would be premature 1488 01:30:15,280 --> 01:30:17,840 Speaker 1: to give monthly numbers. But I think what happened here 1489 01:30:17,920 --> 01:30:22,240 Speaker 1: is Axios probably got a peak at the spike that 1490 01:30:22,280 --> 01:30:24,400 Speaker 1: has been happening in March. Because the weather is a 1491 01:30:24,400 --> 01:30:28,519 Speaker 1: little bit warmer, now is a better time to cross. 1492 01:30:29,000 --> 01:30:31,280 Speaker 1: And people say, oh, buck the desert, it's really hot. No, 1493 01:30:31,360 --> 01:30:33,160 Speaker 1: that's not true. Those of you who actually live down 1494 01:30:33,200 --> 01:30:36,320 Speaker 1: there know that it is quite cold at night in 1495 01:30:36,360 --> 01:30:39,760 Speaker 1: the desert, especially in the wintertime, so there's going to 1496 01:30:39,760 --> 01:30:41,760 Speaker 1: be a big surge in the numbers. I'm hoping to 1497 01:30:41,840 --> 01:30:44,559 Speaker 1: come back with a lot of data, a lot of 1498 01:30:45,600 --> 01:30:49,360 Speaker 1: interviews and stories to print and talk about here on 1499 01:30:49,479 --> 01:30:53,160 Speaker 1: radio that will allow me to raise this issue all 1500 01:30:53,200 --> 01:30:55,400 Speaker 1: the way up to the top level at the White House, 1501 01:30:55,400 --> 01:30:57,400 Speaker 1: because people really do need to focus in on this one. 1502 01:30:57,400 --> 01:31:00,360 Speaker 1: All right. The Mueller probe is gone, the mull Robe 1503 01:31:00,600 --> 01:31:04,880 Speaker 1: is over and done with. So now it's time to 1504 01:31:04,920 --> 01:31:07,240 Speaker 1: focus again on the agenda. And at the very top 1505 01:31:07,280 --> 01:31:09,880 Speaker 1: of that agenda needs to be what are we going 1506 01:31:09,920 --> 01:31:15,879 Speaker 1: to do about the southern border. We need to take action. 1507 01:31:16,000 --> 01:31:19,040 Speaker 1: This is not a sufficient state of affairs. The current 1508 01:31:19,120 --> 01:31:25,040 Speaker 1: situation is just flatly unacceptable. This cannot continue as is, 1509 01:31:25,880 --> 01:31:29,519 Speaker 1: and so that means that there needs to be some 1510 01:31:29,640 --> 01:31:33,920 Speaker 1: kind of meeting between the Republicans and the Democrats, because 1511 01:31:34,000 --> 01:31:36,240 Speaker 1: this is a congressional thing, folks, it's not just Trump. 1512 01:31:36,680 --> 01:31:39,000 Speaker 1: Because if Trump just gives an order, it'll be challenging 1513 01:31:39,000 --> 01:31:40,920 Speaker 1: in the courts. And I would argue that even if 1514 01:31:41,400 --> 01:31:45,080 Speaker 1: there is congressional action, if it is not open borders 1515 01:31:45,200 --> 01:31:48,559 Speaker 1: friendly enough, then you'll have some left wing judge who 1516 01:31:48,600 --> 01:31:53,559 Speaker 1: will decide that the duly pass statute is not in 1517 01:31:53,600 --> 01:31:58,120 Speaker 1: fact acceptable. So I just want to note that this 1518 01:31:58,240 --> 01:32:04,679 Speaker 1: is a very this is a worsening situation, and it's 1519 01:32:04,680 --> 01:32:07,040 Speaker 1: one that I'm gonna be raising. I hope that I 1520 01:32:07,040 --> 01:32:08,759 Speaker 1: can get the folks here in DC to pay attention. 1521 01:32:08,760 --> 01:32:10,680 Speaker 1: I'll certainly have stories to tell all of you about this, 1522 01:32:11,280 --> 01:32:15,759 Speaker 1: and I will have really seen one a in San Diego, 1523 01:32:15,840 --> 01:32:19,799 Speaker 1: a place where the border fence, the wall really works, 1524 01:32:20,520 --> 01:32:23,320 Speaker 1: and what that means for that area, and how that 1525 01:32:23,360 --> 01:32:25,840 Speaker 1: has helped and how that has brought down illegal crossings. 1526 01:32:25,880 --> 01:32:29,240 Speaker 1: But in El Paso, what I'm going to see is 1527 01:32:29,240 --> 01:32:32,240 Speaker 1: what it means when there's a massive loophole, loophole that's 1528 01:32:32,240 --> 01:32:35,240 Speaker 1: being exploited by people that want to come into the 1529 01:32:35,320 --> 01:32:40,679 Speaker 1: country illegally. This is going to be this is gonna 1530 01:32:40,680 --> 01:32:43,680 Speaker 1: be a big deal because not only is it a 1531 01:32:43,720 --> 01:32:46,400 Speaker 1: moment of I know that we're maybe getting a little 1532 01:32:46,400 --> 01:32:48,240 Speaker 1: tired of winning right now with Trump the last couple 1533 01:32:48,240 --> 01:32:51,559 Speaker 1: of days, but not only is it an inability to 1534 01:32:51,600 --> 01:32:54,640 Speaker 1: follow through on the promises made by the Trump administration. 1535 01:32:54,640 --> 01:32:56,400 Speaker 1: If we're going to be honest about this, and I 1536 01:32:56,439 --> 01:32:59,080 Speaker 1: want to always be honest about things with you, and 1537 01:32:59,120 --> 01:33:01,200 Speaker 1: we should always be honest with ourselves about what's happening 1538 01:33:01,200 --> 01:33:05,320 Speaker 1: in this country. The border right now is in worse 1539 01:33:05,680 --> 01:33:10,479 Speaker 1: shape than at any time in really the last decade, 1540 01:33:11,120 --> 01:33:15,240 Speaker 1: and that's just completely unacceptable. I mean, that is just madness. 1541 01:33:15,800 --> 01:33:18,280 Speaker 1: So we're gonna drill down on this one. I'm gonna 1542 01:33:18,280 --> 01:33:19,960 Speaker 1: have more for you. I'm gonna be doing the show 1543 01:33:20,360 --> 01:33:25,000 Speaker 1: from El Paso, Texas on Thursday, and then because of 1544 01:33:25,040 --> 01:33:28,800 Speaker 1: flights and scheduling, I'm gonna have a sub on the 1545 01:33:28,800 --> 01:33:31,160 Speaker 1: show on Friday. I think it's gonna be The Godfather, 1546 01:33:31,240 --> 01:33:34,639 Speaker 1: Michael Pelka. So we're gonna have the Godfather in on Friday. 1547 01:33:34,680 --> 01:33:36,400 Speaker 1: You haven't heard from him a while. He misses all 1548 01:33:36,400 --> 01:33:38,880 Speaker 1: of you, so he'll be joining in and doing a 1549 01:33:39,280 --> 01:33:44,160 Speaker 1: great show as his as is his custom. But and 1550 01:33:44,200 --> 01:33:45,960 Speaker 1: I'm sorry that I'm gonna be out. I you know, 1551 01:33:46,000 --> 01:33:48,960 Speaker 1: I hate being out from this show, but I do 1552 01:33:49,040 --> 01:33:50,599 Speaker 1: think it's worth it to get down for a couple 1553 01:33:50,640 --> 01:33:52,719 Speaker 1: of days and see what's really going out of the border. 1554 01:33:52,760 --> 01:33:53,880 Speaker 1: And so then when I talk to you about it 1555 01:33:53,920 --> 01:33:59,240 Speaker 1: as well, I can bring all of that firsthand experience 1556 01:33:59,280 --> 01:34:02,479 Speaker 1: in those conversation ations into our analysis of what's really 1557 01:34:02,479 --> 01:34:04,360 Speaker 1: happening here. And I think that that's that's well worth it. 1558 01:34:04,439 --> 01:34:08,040 Speaker 1: So Thursday I'll be from El Passo, Texas. And Friday 1559 01:34:08,600 --> 01:34:14,719 Speaker 1: you'll have a guest and roll Call is next. Ain't 1560 01:34:14,760 --> 01:34:17,639 Speaker 1: no party like a Team Buck party, because a Team 1561 01:34:17,720 --> 01:34:27,080 Speaker 1: Buck party don't stop. Yeah, we got bucks turned up 1562 01:34:27,120 --> 01:34:44,879 Speaker 1: to eleven. It's time for roll Call. Glorious day, my friends, 1563 01:34:45,439 --> 01:34:49,880 Speaker 1: Glorious day, good day for Trump, good day for Conservatism, 1564 01:34:49,960 --> 01:34:54,960 Speaker 1: good day for America. And with that, I think it's 1565 01:34:55,000 --> 01:35:00,000 Speaker 1: worth getting into our latest on roll Call, Facebook dot com. 1566 01:35:00,000 --> 01:35:02,160 Speaker 1: Slash Buck Sexton if you want to be a part 1567 01:35:02,280 --> 01:35:07,320 Speaker 1: of the action Thomas Great show on rising this morning. Buck. 1568 01:35:07,479 --> 01:35:10,960 Speaker 1: After listening to Gene Rossi, I get the impression he 1569 01:35:11,000 --> 01:35:14,040 Speaker 1: is supporting Jerry Nadler on trying to generate a wedge 1570 01:35:14,080 --> 01:35:18,080 Speaker 1: on Agbar Summary Report. Rossi stated that it was Muller's 1571 01:35:18,080 --> 01:35:21,000 Speaker 1: decision to determine if there was sufficient evidence to declare 1572 01:35:21,040 --> 01:35:23,680 Speaker 1: obstruction by President Trump and then make the charge that 1573 01:35:23,720 --> 01:35:27,200 Speaker 1: there was wrong. That is the same fine line cross 1574 01:35:27,280 --> 01:35:30,759 Speaker 1: by Komey in the Clinton investigation, Robert Muller was tasked 1575 01:35:30,760 --> 01:35:33,799 Speaker 1: to investigate any collision between the Trump campaign and Russia 1576 01:35:34,000 --> 01:35:36,800 Speaker 1: in order to corrupt the election. Mueller was tasked on 1577 01:35:36,880 --> 01:35:40,559 Speaker 1: the umbrella of a counter intelligence investigation. A significant point 1578 01:35:41,000 --> 01:35:44,640 Speaker 1: in that context, Muller's function is as an investigator, not 1579 01:35:44,800 --> 01:35:48,080 Speaker 1: a prosecutor. Both Rossi and Nadler are trying to convince 1580 01:35:48,080 --> 01:35:50,800 Speaker 1: everyone the decision on obstruction of justice was up to Mueller. 1581 01:35:50,840 --> 01:35:54,000 Speaker 1: They are wrong. Muller's function was to gather all pertinent 1582 01:35:54,000 --> 01:35:56,639 Speaker 1: information and provide it to the AG, the Assistant AG, 1583 01:35:57,040 --> 01:36:00,559 Speaker 1: and the DOJ panel. Once done, the final is made 1584 01:36:00,560 --> 01:36:04,920 Speaker 1: by the AG. Thomas, you're correct, sir. And the people 1585 01:36:04,960 --> 01:36:09,519 Speaker 1: who are saying continuously here that there's something there's something 1586 01:36:09,760 --> 01:36:15,160 Speaker 1: inherently improper about what's gone on because Bar made the 1587 01:36:15,200 --> 01:36:18,920 Speaker 1: Bar made the final call, don't understand that Bar is 1588 01:36:18,960 --> 01:36:21,479 Speaker 1: the one who makes the final call. So they can 1589 01:36:21,479 --> 01:36:23,960 Speaker 1: complain as much as they want, but you know, he 1590 01:36:24,080 --> 01:36:27,240 Speaker 1: is the umpire. He is the one and that's why 1591 01:36:27,280 --> 01:36:29,439 Speaker 1: that this this report. And people say, oh, well, Muller 1592 01:36:29,520 --> 01:36:32,439 Speaker 1: said this, and then Barr said that, yeah, Bar's the 1593 01:36:32,439 --> 01:36:37,800 Speaker 1: final word, and the final word is no collusion, no obstruction. 1594 01:36:38,040 --> 01:36:45,920 Speaker 1: That is the final word. Alright, here we go. Rachel writes, Hey, 1595 01:36:46,200 --> 01:36:48,120 Speaker 1: my daughter can only say a few words, but hi, 1596 01:36:48,240 --> 01:36:50,599 Speaker 1: Buck is one of them. When I listened to your 1597 01:36:51,000 --> 01:36:53,600 Speaker 1: listen to your podcast, and she sees your face. She 1598 01:36:53,680 --> 01:36:57,240 Speaker 1: always enthusiastically says, hi Buck. Enjoy the video, shields Hi. 1599 01:36:58,920 --> 01:37:02,160 Speaker 1: Oh wow, she does say hi Buck in the video. 1600 01:37:02,800 --> 01:37:10,960 Speaker 1: That's so cute. That's awesome. Thanks Rachel. That's great. That's 1601 01:37:11,040 --> 01:37:14,200 Speaker 1: really cute. She's adorable. Your family's lovely. Thank you for 1602 01:37:14,240 --> 01:37:19,679 Speaker 1: setting in the baby saying Hi Buck. Harry, all right, say, 1603 01:37:20,240 --> 01:37:22,680 Speaker 1: catching up on the podcast. I am totally with you 1604 01:37:22,760 --> 01:37:26,679 Speaker 1: on the athletic absurdity in colleges and beyond. There's something 1605 01:37:26,720 --> 01:37:29,960 Speaker 1: really wrong with the society that rewards an entertainer to 1606 01:37:30,160 --> 01:37:32,320 Speaker 1: play and game a thousand times more than we do 1607 01:37:32,320 --> 01:37:38,160 Speaker 1: an educator. Shields high, shields wall high and strong. Harry. Well, Harry, 1608 01:37:38,200 --> 01:37:40,240 Speaker 1: I'm glad you know there are some folks who agree 1609 01:37:40,240 --> 01:37:43,200 Speaker 1: with me. And remember I'm not I'm not taking the 1610 01:37:43,240 --> 01:37:45,920 Speaker 1: opinion that, oh, we should get rid of recruiting because 1611 01:37:45,920 --> 01:37:49,800 Speaker 1: it wouldn't have an effect on college athletics or no. No, 1612 01:37:50,200 --> 01:37:53,280 Speaker 1: I'm taking the opinion that we should dramatically change the 1613 01:37:53,479 --> 01:37:58,120 Speaker 1: focus that we currently place on athletics in college, that 1614 01:37:58,200 --> 01:38:01,760 Speaker 1: we should not allow ourselves to be sucked into this 1615 01:38:01,880 --> 01:38:05,280 Speaker 1: belief that sports teams are as important as everything else 1616 01:38:05,280 --> 01:38:09,519 Speaker 1: that's going on, because they are not, all right, They're 1617 01:38:09,560 --> 01:38:12,719 Speaker 1: just not, especially when you get outside the major sports 1618 01:38:12,720 --> 01:38:16,960 Speaker 1: that do generate serious revenue and ticket receipts. There's only 1619 01:38:17,000 --> 01:38:20,719 Speaker 1: a few the do folks, Football, basketball, and then maybe 1620 01:38:20,760 --> 01:38:23,000 Speaker 1: a couple other sports at a couple other schools, depending, 1621 01:38:23,040 --> 01:38:27,320 Speaker 1: But it's really football and basketball the huge generators of 1622 01:38:27,360 --> 01:38:29,439 Speaker 1: revenue in the the NCAA. I mean, you know, there's no 1623 01:38:29,600 --> 01:38:33,840 Speaker 1: NCAA soccer team that's making massive money for their school. 1624 01:38:33,840 --> 01:38:36,519 Speaker 1: And as you know, most because you listen to this show, 1625 01:38:37,080 --> 01:38:41,439 Speaker 1: most athletic programs lose money for their schools. That is 1626 01:38:41,479 --> 01:38:46,599 Speaker 1: a fact, all right, Julie. And it's not most like 1627 01:38:46,640 --> 01:38:50,880 Speaker 1: fifty one percent, it's like ninety five or ninety seven percent. 1628 01:38:50,920 --> 01:38:53,360 Speaker 1: I mean, they almost all lose money for their schools, 1629 01:38:53,360 --> 01:38:55,559 Speaker 1: meaning that the schools spend more on athletics than they 1630 01:38:55,600 --> 01:38:58,320 Speaker 1: make back on athletics, and the rest of the student 1631 01:38:58,320 --> 01:39:02,519 Speaker 1: body subsidizes those sports. Okay, Julie runs, Hey, buck, here's 1632 01:39:02,520 --> 01:39:05,400 Speaker 1: a deal on Hickenlooper. He's a total tool, he's a 1633 01:39:05,439 --> 01:39:08,920 Speaker 1: beta mail and he's running for VP. He was twice 1634 01:39:09,000 --> 01:39:12,000 Speaker 1: governor in Colorado and basically sat there looking like a dufus. 1635 01:39:12,400 --> 01:39:14,759 Speaker 1: A woman president has to have a mail VP, because 1636 01:39:14,760 --> 01:39:18,360 Speaker 1: if she has a woman, the inevitable gossip of catfights 1637 01:39:18,400 --> 01:39:21,320 Speaker 1: and style wars and who wore it better will happen. 1638 01:39:21,800 --> 01:39:25,719 Speaker 1: Fingers crossed. The first woman president is Nicky Haley. Great show, Julie, Julie, 1639 01:39:25,720 --> 01:39:29,080 Speaker 1: thank you so much. Thanks for educating me a bit 1640 01:39:29,200 --> 01:39:33,560 Speaker 1: on mister Hickenlooper and what his circumstance was. His situation 1641 01:39:33,720 --> 01:39:39,320 Speaker 1: is so good for me to know. Bobby, I was 1642 01:39:39,400 --> 01:39:42,800 Speaker 1: going to suggest the same site, although I haven't tried 1643 01:39:42,840 --> 01:39:45,439 Speaker 1: it myself. Love your show, buck Oss how to block 1644 01:39:45,520 --> 01:39:50,200 Speaker 1: annoying robocalls that you keep getting? And then he sent 1645 01:39:50,200 --> 01:39:52,360 Speaker 1: me a CNBC site on this. You know, I have 1646 01:39:52,479 --> 01:39:54,559 Speaker 1: an app on my phone that's supposed to block them. 1647 01:39:54,600 --> 01:39:58,720 Speaker 1: I think it does a reasonable job of blocking some 1648 01:39:58,800 --> 01:40:01,160 Speaker 1: of them. I think most of the time that calls 1649 01:40:01,160 --> 01:40:07,599 Speaker 1: actually get through. I find it very, very frustrating how 1650 01:40:07,720 --> 01:40:13,080 Speaker 1: much robocalling irritates me on a regular basis. And we 1651 01:40:13,120 --> 01:40:14,759 Speaker 1: just should be able to get rid of this entirely 1652 01:40:14,760 --> 01:40:18,920 Speaker 1: that there's no excuse for why. Remember there was a 1653 01:40:18,960 --> 01:40:20,439 Speaker 1: time I don't know how many of you got this woman, 1654 01:40:20,479 --> 01:40:23,160 Speaker 1: It was hi I'm Julie from the Reward Center. Would 1655 01:40:23,160 --> 01:40:25,519 Speaker 1: you like to go on a cruise? And you're just like, no, Julie, 1656 01:40:25,920 --> 01:40:28,880 Speaker 1: I don't want to go on a cruise. I want 1657 01:40:28,920 --> 01:40:31,639 Speaker 1: to not answer my phone and have a stupid robot 1658 01:40:32,160 --> 01:40:36,559 Speaker 1: screeching at me. But why are you so mean? Stop 1659 01:40:36,600 --> 01:40:43,960 Speaker 1: at Julie. Ah, that's stop binding Willie. All rights, Hey, buck, 1660 01:40:44,040 --> 01:40:47,080 Speaker 1: enjoy your show daily on the podcast. The Muller investigation 1661 01:40:47,160 --> 01:40:51,240 Speaker 1: should be investigated. Too many people charge with lying obstruction 1662 01:40:51,280 --> 01:40:53,280 Speaker 1: of justice. How can you obstruct justice if there was 1663 01:40:53,320 --> 01:40:56,759 Speaker 1: no crime? Well, well, I mean you can obstruct justice 1664 01:40:56,760 --> 01:41:01,240 Speaker 1: if there is no underlying crime. It's harder to do it. 1665 01:41:01,360 --> 01:41:05,360 Speaker 1: Certainly is a more difficult case usually to prove. But 1666 01:41:05,640 --> 01:41:08,559 Speaker 1: I think the most compelling defense for the president on 1667 01:41:08,600 --> 01:41:11,320 Speaker 1: that one is that one he didn't actually obstruct anything, 1668 01:41:11,479 --> 01:41:15,000 Speaker 1: that the investigation that the firing of Comey was not 1669 01:41:15,120 --> 01:41:18,200 Speaker 1: a was not actually an act of obstruction, because the 1670 01:41:18,240 --> 01:41:22,960 Speaker 1: investigation continued on anyway. So it was. And he has 1671 01:41:23,000 --> 01:41:28,600 Speaker 1: a constitutional ability to fire Comey. He has the constitutional 1672 01:41:28,640 --> 01:41:30,960 Speaker 1: right to fire Comy for any reason. He can fire 1673 01:41:30,960 --> 01:41:32,800 Speaker 1: come me because he does not like the tie he 1674 01:41:32,840 --> 01:41:38,840 Speaker 1: wore one day. So I do not think that obstruction 1675 01:41:38,960 --> 01:41:41,120 Speaker 1: is a strong place for the Democrats to go. And 1676 01:41:41,200 --> 01:41:43,400 Speaker 1: keep in mind, they're just trying to go somewhere. They're 1677 01:41:43,439 --> 01:41:50,280 Speaker 1: trying to find something. Jonathan writes a longer here. Hello 1678 01:41:50,320 --> 01:41:52,679 Speaker 1: Buccanader podcast listener in New York. So I have very 1679 01:41:52,680 --> 01:41:55,880 Speaker 1: few alternative listening points here. I'm proud to say I 1680 01:41:55,880 --> 01:41:59,080 Speaker 1: start off all my mornings with the buck blasting. I 1681 01:41:59,160 --> 01:42:00,800 Speaker 1: was a past liberal, so I guess you can say 1682 01:42:00,800 --> 01:42:02,320 Speaker 1: I grew up and started paying attention to the world 1683 01:42:02,320 --> 01:42:04,559 Speaker 1: around me. And no one seriously would think that a 1684 01:42:04,560 --> 01:42:07,240 Speaker 1: person would be so stupid as to corroborate with Russia 1685 01:42:07,439 --> 01:42:10,280 Speaker 1: to win votes, or collaborate with Russia to win votes. 1686 01:42:10,800 --> 01:42:13,479 Speaker 1: Probably easier to collaborate with Mexico to win twenty twenty 1687 01:42:13,479 --> 01:42:16,160 Speaker 1: wink wink. Hopefully they'll be charges soon. This is literally 1688 01:42:16,160 --> 01:42:19,400 Speaker 1: one of the biggest conspiracies ever to grace this nation. Anyway, 1689 01:42:19,880 --> 01:42:22,360 Speaker 1: I wonder did you ever get to play up north 1690 01:42:22,400 --> 01:42:26,920 Speaker 1: when you were in Iraq? Shield tie keep fighting for 1691 01:42:26,960 --> 01:42:31,840 Speaker 1: the cause, Jonathan. I was up north in Iraq, and 1692 01:42:31,960 --> 01:42:35,240 Speaker 1: I am fond of our Kurdish friends and allies. From 1693 01:42:35,240 --> 01:42:39,759 Speaker 1: that experience, that much I can say. Thanks for writing 1694 01:42:39,760 --> 01:42:44,599 Speaker 1: in my friend appreciate it. Gregor, I was like, Gregor's 1695 01:42:44,640 --> 01:42:47,479 Speaker 1: a cool name. Why Mueller had to find no collusion? 1696 01:42:47,760 --> 01:42:49,880 Speaker 1: This allowed him to look primarily forward and not have 1697 01:42:49,960 --> 01:42:52,679 Speaker 1: to delve into the dossier, its origins or the people 1698 01:42:52,720 --> 01:43:01,680 Speaker 1: involved in its origination. Yeah, I mean greg Or. I 1699 01:43:01,760 --> 01:43:04,280 Speaker 1: think that we may hopefully get answers to all those 1700 01:43:04,320 --> 01:43:09,920 Speaker 1: other issues now, but we will have to see Andrei's 1701 01:43:12,880 --> 01:43:15,880 Speaker 1: hold on a second's up buck a few things. Most recently, 1702 01:43:15,880 --> 01:43:19,160 Speaker 1: I noted your conversations regarded the assembly of military three 1703 01:43:19,200 --> 01:43:21,400 Speaker 1: letter agency folks and law enforce and for a movie 1704 01:43:21,439 --> 01:43:25,840 Speaker 1: pow Wow cultural appropriation. I guess anyway, I think that's 1705 01:43:25,880 --> 01:43:29,160 Speaker 1: great for number of reasons. First, those who follow you 1706 01:43:29,200 --> 01:43:31,439 Speaker 1: dig your style and trust your judgment of the show's content. 1707 01:43:31,640 --> 01:43:33,360 Speaker 1: For me, I like what you and your team put 1708 01:43:33,400 --> 01:43:36,360 Speaker 1: together the joke's impressions, movie quotes, commy bear food interest, 1709 01:43:36,439 --> 01:43:39,200 Speaker 1: what Molly's doing dog stuff in history keeps us interested 1710 01:43:39,240 --> 01:43:41,800 Speaker 1: in loyal That's a good thing. Secondly, you're masterful at 1711 01:43:41,800 --> 01:43:44,160 Speaker 1: what you do. I can only guess why you're successful, 1712 01:43:44,160 --> 01:43:45,600 Speaker 1: but I believe it's because you stay the course that 1713 01:43:45,680 --> 01:43:49,160 Speaker 1: adhere to principles a personal and professional discipline. Of sorts. 1714 01:43:49,200 --> 01:43:53,160 Speaker 1: That's cool. Buck. You might rather you want movie night analysis? 1715 01:43:53,240 --> 01:43:56,280 Speaker 1: Do it? You want what's your favorite emory recipe? Hack Day? 1716 01:43:56,360 --> 01:43:59,479 Speaker 1: Do it? French Bulldog Friday. I'm tuned in. You get 1717 01:43:59,520 --> 01:44:02,120 Speaker 1: the idea. Keep being Buck, I'll be there shieldside andres 1718 01:44:02,160 --> 01:44:04,200 Speaker 1: andres Man, thank you so much for the encouragement. And 1719 01:44:04,320 --> 01:44:06,760 Speaker 1: it is something. Look, I mean I understand that when 1720 01:44:06,760 --> 01:44:10,000 Speaker 1: you're doing a daily news, daily news kind of show 1721 01:44:10,040 --> 01:44:12,360 Speaker 1: as I do, you know you're gonna hear that people 1722 01:44:12,360 --> 01:44:14,160 Speaker 1: are gonna say you no collusion. You're gonna hear that 1723 01:44:14,200 --> 01:44:16,040 Speaker 1: on every radio show today and probably every day this 1724 01:44:16,080 --> 01:44:18,240 Speaker 1: week from every show, no collusion, you know. Okay, yeah, 1725 01:44:18,240 --> 01:44:19,960 Speaker 1: we all get it. So there's no collusion. That's important. 1726 01:44:19,960 --> 01:44:22,120 Speaker 1: We got to talk about it. But when you come here, 1727 01:44:22,160 --> 01:44:24,000 Speaker 1: I want you to get other things too. And I 1728 01:44:24,080 --> 01:44:28,680 Speaker 1: make a special point of one having this be a 1729 01:44:28,800 --> 01:44:32,880 Speaker 1: real time to hang out and actually talk to the team. 1730 01:44:32,960 --> 01:44:35,880 Speaker 1: So that's that's always part of the ethos here. We 1731 01:44:35,920 --> 01:44:37,960 Speaker 1: are having a conversation. I am talking to you like 1732 01:44:37,960 --> 01:44:40,200 Speaker 1: you are sitting in the room. In fact, I was 1733 01:44:40,240 --> 01:44:43,000 Speaker 1: told that originally by my first real mentor and radio 1734 01:44:43,400 --> 01:44:46,160 Speaker 1: that this is a one to one conversation with a 1735 01:44:46,200 --> 01:44:50,040 Speaker 1: close friend. And then if you approach your craft of 1736 01:44:50,160 --> 01:44:52,639 Speaker 1: radio that way and you really believe that, and that's 1737 01:44:52,640 --> 01:44:55,880 Speaker 1: how you think of what you are doing. You know, 1738 01:44:56,040 --> 01:44:58,040 Speaker 1: I'm not crazy like I see pink elephants and think 1739 01:44:58,040 --> 01:44:59,880 Speaker 1: you're in the room with me, all of you listening. 1740 01:45:00,360 --> 01:45:02,519 Speaker 1: But I do kind of think you're all in the 1741 01:45:02,600 --> 01:45:05,040 Speaker 1: room with me, and that should come across in the 1742 01:45:05,080 --> 01:45:08,880 Speaker 1: way that we do this show. And as for the 1743 01:45:09,200 --> 01:45:12,599 Speaker 1: movie plan about having some spec Ops guys pull apart, 1744 01:45:12,640 --> 01:45:15,080 Speaker 1: we'd have to do some editing beforehand because you couldn't 1745 01:45:15,080 --> 01:45:16,880 Speaker 1: watch the whole movie. But if we could pull just 1746 01:45:16,920 --> 01:45:19,360 Speaker 1: some some great scenes and talk about them, I think 1747 01:45:19,360 --> 01:45:22,680 Speaker 1: that could be a really fun short show. I just 1748 01:45:22,720 --> 01:45:24,640 Speaker 1: don't know if we'd have to get rights clearances for 1749 01:45:24,680 --> 01:45:26,920 Speaker 1: the movie to use and stuff like that. It's that's 1750 01:45:26,920 --> 01:45:29,000 Speaker 1: where it gets a little bit more complicated. But Andreas Mann, 1751 01:45:29,040 --> 01:45:32,040 Speaker 1: thank you so much for the encouragement. Everybody, make sure 1752 01:45:32,040 --> 01:45:34,599 Speaker 1: you take a little time today for yourself and just 1753 01:45:34,800 --> 01:45:37,040 Speaker 1: you know, take a little victory lab. I don't know 1754 01:45:37,080 --> 01:45:39,600 Speaker 1: if that's around your house or around the block, or 1755 01:45:39,960 --> 01:45:42,599 Speaker 1: you're gonna go for a little little nice evening drive, 1756 01:45:42,760 --> 01:45:44,960 Speaker 1: but go for a little victory lap, play some of 1757 01:45:44,960 --> 01:45:49,040 Speaker 1: your favorite tunes. It's a big victory what's gone on here. 1758 01:45:49,200 --> 01:45:52,720 Speaker 1: And I'm sure that many of you have been criticized 1759 01:45:52,720 --> 01:45:55,479 Speaker 1: by friends or you've just had those moments of self 1760 01:45:55,560 --> 01:45:57,920 Speaker 1: doubt where you know, why do all these people really 1761 01:45:57,960 --> 01:46:00,120 Speaker 1: think the president's a traitor? And how could they all 1762 01:46:00,160 --> 01:46:01,800 Speaker 1: believe this? And am I? Am I the one who's 1763 01:46:01,840 --> 01:46:04,519 Speaker 1: missing this And we all have self doubt on these 1764 01:46:04,520 --> 01:46:07,439 Speaker 1: issues at different points, but you stayed the course. I 1765 01:46:07,520 --> 01:46:09,479 Speaker 1: stayed the course, and at the end of the day, 1766 01:46:10,439 --> 01:46:13,160 Speaker 1: we were right and we were able to stay with 1767 01:46:13,240 --> 01:46:16,960 Speaker 1: the team and fight because indeed team, we kept our 1768 01:46:17,000 --> 01:46:20,000 Speaker 1: shields high.
