WEBVTT - Schiff Show Continues - August 12th, Hour 2 0:00:00.280 --> 0:00:03.120 All right, thanks gootch on an hour two Sean Hennity Show, 0:00:03.160 --> 0:00:05.640 toll free on numbers eight hundred and ninety four one Sean, 0:00:05.720 --> 0:00:07.960 if you want to be a part of the program. Well, 0:00:08.080 --> 0:00:12.639 it looks like the congenital liar Adam Schiff really needed 0:00:12.720 --> 0:00:17.120 that pardoner. Joe Biden gave him unconditional pardon at the 0:00:17.400 --> 0:00:21.160 end of his administration for more than a few reasons. 0:00:21.200 --> 0:00:25.079 We reported last week that in fact, he's being investigated 0:00:25.120 --> 0:00:27.880 by the Department of Justice over whether or not he 0:00:28.000 --> 0:00:32.920 was claiming while being a California representative, if he lied 0:00:32.960 --> 0:00:36.520 on loan applications and falsely claimed that his main residence 0:00:36.600 --> 0:00:41.080 was in Maryland, and maybe perhaps even according to one report, 0:00:41.120 --> 0:00:43.400 suggesting that he was claiming the same thing out in 0:00:43.440 --> 0:00:46.600 California at the same time, in other words, to get 0:00:46.600 --> 0:00:51.559 more favorable loan terms with the federal government. Yeah, that 0:00:51.560 --> 0:00:54.160 would get a lot of people in trouble. But we 0:00:54.240 --> 0:00:55.240 have other news here. 0:00:55.440 --> 0:00:56.480 There was and this. 0:00:56.440 --> 0:00:59.000 Story is pretty mind blowing. It was, and John Solomon, 0:00:59.000 --> 0:01:00.840 who broke the story, will join us in a moment. 0:01:01.160 --> 0:01:04.800 Investigative reporter founder editor in chief chose Thethnews dot Com 0:01:05.280 --> 0:01:11.679 how a democratic whistleblower repeatedly warned the FBI democratic whistleblower, 0:01:11.959 --> 0:01:15.319 I mean this person was there well over a decade that, 0:01:15.480 --> 0:01:20.039 beginning in twenty seventeen, the congenital liar Adam Schiff had 0:01:20.200 --> 0:01:26.440 authorized leaking classified information, all in an effort to smear 0:01:26.720 --> 0:01:30.720 Donald Trump. Now by every objective measure, we'll get Greg 0:01:30.800 --> 0:01:32.880 Jarrett to take on it as well. That seems to 0:01:32.920 --> 0:01:35.600 me that that could very likely be a violation of 0:01:35.640 --> 0:01:39.720 the Espionage Act. Now, other news that John has broken 0:01:39.840 --> 0:01:44.240 from earlier today, we find out that unearthed emails part 0:01:44.280 --> 0:01:49.480 of a Foyer request show the Biden administration agencies scrapped 0:01:49.520 --> 0:01:53.880 a plan for Joe Biden to visit a vessel at 0:01:53.920 --> 0:01:57.680 an event because it would have required that then President 0:01:57.800 --> 0:02:01.280 Joe Biden would have to take too many steps, which 0:02:01.360 --> 0:02:04.160 means they knew that he was in a significant not 0:02:04.240 --> 0:02:09.720 only cognitive decline, but a significant physical decline as well. 0:02:10.600 --> 0:02:13.280 All part of the strategy going back to twenty nineteen 0:02:13.320 --> 0:02:15.520 when we first pointed all of this out to the 0:02:15.520 --> 0:02:18.600 American people, and everybody you know, was even up until 0:02:18.600 --> 0:02:21.000 twenty twenty three, they were calling him cheap fake twenty 0:02:21.040 --> 0:02:25.320 twenty four, twenty twenty four cheap fake videos anyway the 0:02:25.639 --> 0:02:29.280 Foyer request by the Protect the Public Trust obtained by 0:02:29.400 --> 0:02:33.280 Fox News Digital. Biden was set to visit a national 0:02:33.320 --> 0:02:38.040 security multi mission vessel while touring a shipyard in Philadelphia 0:02:38.080 --> 0:02:41.440 in July of twenty three, and according to the emails, 0:02:41.520 --> 0:02:44.320 that visit to that vessel was scrapped because of quote 0:02:44.400 --> 0:02:48.040 how many steps were involved to get him on that 0:02:48.240 --> 0:02:51.400 ship and he wasn't in good enough shape to take it, 0:02:51.440 --> 0:02:55.760 as determined by the people around him. Now we're discovering 0:02:55.880 --> 0:02:58.560 a New York Times piece. I'll take you back in time. 0:02:58.600 --> 0:03:02.799 What did they report that Joe Biden set down criteria 0:03:03.200 --> 0:03:08.320 and standards for commutations and pardons with every indication that 0:03:08.400 --> 0:03:11.200 he did not make every approval himself. And then the 0:03:11.320 --> 0:03:14.720 question still remains, and hopefully the House Oversight Committee will 0:03:14.720 --> 0:03:17.480 get to the bottom of this, and that is who 0:03:17.560 --> 0:03:20.520 decided and who made the authorization to use the auto 0:03:20.639 --> 0:03:23.520 pen and did Joe Biden even have a clue of 0:03:23.600 --> 0:03:25.560 who is getting a commutation and a pardon? 0:03:26.240 --> 0:03:26.640 Anyway? 0:03:26.680 --> 0:03:29.760 Here to help us sort through all of this, we 0:03:29.800 --> 0:03:32.960 have Greg Jarrett, Fox News legal analyst, New York Times 0:03:33.040 --> 0:03:37.480 bestselling author, John Solomon, editor and chief founder, chief investigative 0:03:37.520 --> 0:03:39.200 reporter justinnews dot com. 0:03:39.280 --> 0:03:40.240 John, we start with you. 0:03:40.360 --> 0:03:43.800 Let's start with the issue of Adam Shift. This is 0:03:43.800 --> 0:03:46.080 a big story and actually this is going to be 0:03:46.080 --> 0:03:47.920 a big week. You have a lot of breaking news 0:03:47.920 --> 0:03:48.800 coming out this week. 0:03:49.480 --> 0:03:51.680 Yeah, listen. I think for the last few years, we've 0:03:51.720 --> 0:03:55.200 known that the false narrative of Russia collusion couldn't have 0:03:55.240 --> 0:03:58.360 been carried out if there weren't legacy news media that 0:03:58.440 --> 0:04:01.880 every day took leaks in often selective leaks, in little 0:04:01.920 --> 0:04:04.880 fragments of intelligence and tried to put them out there 0:04:04.920 --> 0:04:07.240 without a full complete reporting on them. And what we 0:04:07.360 --> 0:04:09.960 now see is we have some sense of who the 0:04:10.000 --> 0:04:15.600 FBI suspected was leaking, and one of those is Adam Shift, 0:04:15.800 --> 0:04:18.479 the ranking then the ranking member on House Intelligence later 0:04:18.560 --> 0:04:21.480 to become its chairman, and then now a California Senator. 0:04:22.160 --> 0:04:24.279 One of his own staff or someone who had served 0:04:24.279 --> 0:04:26.680 on the House Intelligence Committee for twelve years. He was 0:04:26.720 --> 0:04:28.960 a person who had great credibility and longevity with the 0:04:28.960 --> 0:04:33.880 House Intelligence Committee. Came forward four times between twenty seventeen 0:04:34.040 --> 0:04:36.400 and twenty twenty two. Somewhere in that process he gets 0:04:36.760 --> 0:04:40.440 let go by Shift's staff, but He says, I personally 0:04:40.480 --> 0:04:43.760 witnessed in a meeting where Adam Shiff approved the leaking 0:04:43.880 --> 0:04:46.560 of classified information, and I was told don't worry about it, 0:04:46.560 --> 0:04:50.440 even though I thought it was illegal, unethical, in treasonous, 0:04:50.760 --> 0:04:54.520 because Shiff would simply claim that he was protected by 0:04:54.560 --> 0:04:57.920 the debate and speech cause the independent separation of powers 0:04:57.960 --> 0:05:02.400 cause of the constant. And so he goes forward. He 0:05:02.440 --> 0:05:05.800 tells the FBI about this, The FBI starts building some timelines. 0:05:05.839 --> 0:05:08.080 You can see certain things that Adam Schiff does that 0:05:08.200 --> 0:05:11.440 matches up what the source tells him. But at the 0:05:11.520 --> 0:05:13.760 end of the day, it was nowhere for two reasons. One, 0:05:14.960 --> 0:05:18.039 the House Intelligence Committee Democrats staff wouldn't allow itself to 0:05:18.040 --> 0:05:20.960 be interviewed to see if other people who attended the 0:05:21.000 --> 0:05:24.360 meeting or believe this happened. And then the US Attorney 0:05:24.400 --> 0:05:27.479 just basically lets it go and so you know, and 0:05:27.480 --> 0:05:30.960 then years later the Inspector General the Justice Department takes 0:05:30.960 --> 0:05:33.120 a look at and so they just didn't put much 0:05:33.160 --> 0:05:36.880 credence into it. Pretty amazing stuff for a sitting member, 0:05:37.600 --> 0:05:39.960 a member of the Gang of Eight. Remember, when you're 0:05:40.000 --> 0:05:42.480 the ranking member of House Intelligence, you get the most 0:05:42.520 --> 0:05:46.320 sensitive information shared to Congress, the Speaker, the Minority leader, 0:05:46.400 --> 0:05:50.919 the House Intelligence ranking and majority members get these really 0:05:50.920 --> 0:05:54.000 private briefings, and there was good reason to be concerned 0:05:54.000 --> 0:05:57.960 about Adam Shift's loyalty to keeping that information secret. And 0:05:58.200 --> 0:05:59.880 it took us eight years to find that out. 0:06:01.440 --> 0:06:03.680 Greg Jarrett, let's get your take on all of this. 0:06:04.000 --> 0:06:06.880 And we also have to remember he got this this 0:06:07.120 --> 0:06:10.279 pardon on Joe Biden's way out the door. So I 0:06:10.279 --> 0:06:13.760 would imagine that on a whole host of issues that 0:06:13.839 --> 0:06:16.520 Adam Schiff has probably protected from prosecution. 0:06:16.640 --> 0:06:17.160 Am I wrong? 0:06:17.920 --> 0:06:20.680 Well, the parton deals only with his role on the 0:06:20.760 --> 0:06:27.080 J six Committee and nothing else but leaking classified documents, 0:06:27.160 --> 0:06:31.880 as John has laid it out. And you know, again, 0:06:32.160 --> 0:06:36.559 hats off to John for great investigative reporting. The leaking 0:06:36.600 --> 0:06:41.039 classified documents. It's an obvious crime under the Espionaja Act 0:06:41.120 --> 0:06:44.800 eighteen USC. Seven ninety eight. It doesn't matter if you 0:06:44.880 --> 0:06:49.320 are a member of Congress or on the Intelligence Committee, 0:06:49.800 --> 0:06:52.880 or even if you're Secretary of State Hillary Clinton who 0:06:52.920 --> 0:06:57.040 mishandled classified emails. You know, a whole lot of others 0:06:57.080 --> 0:07:01.040 have been prosecuted for less CIA Director David Treys, for example, 0:07:01.680 --> 0:07:04.960 And according to this whistleblower. Schiff knew he was committing 0:07:05.040 --> 0:07:12.160 felonies because Schiff admitted to his staff that he was 0:07:12.240 --> 0:07:17.200 protected by the speech and Debate Clause, which is totally untrue. 0:07:17.320 --> 0:07:23.440 He never read it, obviously, because that cause specifically excludes 0:07:23.680 --> 0:07:28.600 both treason and any felony crime. It also excludes non 0:07:29.120 --> 0:07:33.600 official acts, which is leaking. So the question becomes why 0:07:33.800 --> 0:07:38.440 wasn't Schiff arrested and charged when the FBI first learned 0:07:38.480 --> 0:07:44.880 about it in twenty seventeen. Well, Okham's raiser, you know. 0:07:45.320 --> 0:07:47.960 The correct answer is usually the most obvious. He was 0:07:48.000 --> 0:07:52.560 being protected by FBI Director Christopher Ray in a succession 0:07:52.640 --> 0:07:57.760 of Attorneys General Jeff Session, Rod Rosenstein, Bill Barr, and 0:07:57.840 --> 0:08:01.840 Merrick Garling, none of whom wanted to do the right 0:08:01.880 --> 0:08:06.440 thing and enforce the rule of law, probably for political reasons. 0:08:06.480 --> 0:08:10.160 The problem now, of course, is the statue of limitations, 0:08:10.240 --> 0:08:15.040 which is five years from the act of leaking classified 0:08:15.440 --> 0:08:20.800 information or the last act in a conspiracy to leak, 0:08:21.280 --> 0:08:24.320 And at this point we don't know the exact dates 0:08:24.400 --> 0:08:27.840 of when he leaked. If Shift continued to leak and 0:08:28.000 --> 0:08:32.679 conspired to cover it up, which is obstruction of justice, 0:08:32.920 --> 0:08:38.680 the clock arguably starts ticking upon the discovery of deliberately 0:08:39.120 --> 0:08:43.920 concealed evidence. So you know, we don't know the dates, 0:08:43.960 --> 0:08:47.000 as I said before, but you can bet your bottom 0:08:47.080 --> 0:08:50.320 dollar that both the FBI and the Department of Justice 0:08:50.600 --> 0:08:55.000 are closely examining it with an eye to potential prosecution. 0:08:56.160 --> 0:08:58.880 What do you think, I mean, if it is a conspiracy, 0:08:58.960 --> 0:09:01.600 I mean, where do you think that goes? John Solomon? 0:09:03.080 --> 0:09:05.920 More and more information keeps coming out. I mean between 0:09:06.000 --> 0:09:10.600 Tulci Gabbard her declassification and John Ratcliffe and his declassification, 0:09:11.280 --> 0:09:15.280 Cash Battel and all that he is now doing in 0:09:15.360 --> 0:09:20.160 terms of the grand conspiracy investigation, which by the way, 0:09:20.160 --> 0:09:23.040 I think is warranted. I've gone through chapter and verse 0:09:23.120 --> 0:09:26.880 and one detail after another. You know, the entire Russia 0:09:26.960 --> 0:09:29.120 Russia Russia thing was a hoax from the get go 0:09:29.240 --> 0:09:32.480 in the beginning. Then I can make an argument that 0:09:32.640 --> 0:09:35.360 many of the same actors and players were involved in 0:09:35.960 --> 0:09:40.240 hiding from the public the authenticity of the very real 0:09:40.320 --> 0:09:44.560 laptop a laptop of zero Experience Hunter when they had 0:09:44.760 --> 0:09:47.440 verified its authenticity of March of twenty twenty. Then they 0:09:47.480 --> 0:09:50.360 prebunk it with social media, knowing that it's going to 0:09:50.360 --> 0:09:54.640 be dropped by Rudy Giuliani's then attorney, Robert Costello, and 0:09:54.679 --> 0:10:00.120 then not confirming specific questions by social media executive like 0:10:00.160 --> 0:10:03.240 Mark Zuckerberg and Jack Dorsey on Twitter at the time. 0:10:03.800 --> 0:10:05.880 When I asked, is this what you were warning us about? 0:10:05.920 --> 0:10:07.440 They knew the answer, they wouldn't tell them. 0:10:08.600 --> 0:10:12.160 Yeah. Listen, there is one provision eighteen USC. Seven ninety 0:10:12.200 --> 0:10:16.720 eight where that actually does state that if someone knowingly 0:10:16.920 --> 0:10:21.839 and willfully disclosed a classified information, you can extend the 0:10:21.880 --> 0:10:25.640 statute eliminations to tenures. Since these leaks occurred between seventeen 0:10:25.679 --> 0:10:28.679 and eighteen, though we don't know the right dates, there 0:10:28.760 --> 0:10:32.040 is a possibility that with new evidence, you could go 0:10:32.120 --> 0:10:35.720 back and look at these league cases and do a prosecution. 0:10:35.760 --> 0:10:39.439 It's actually under the Internal Security Act is seldom use law, 0:10:39.440 --> 0:10:42.880 but it does carry a ten year statue. But with 0:10:42.960 --> 0:10:46.319 the exception of that, I think the conspiracy case is 0:10:46.360 --> 0:10:50.520 the only way that the Justice Department can build criminal 0:10:50.520 --> 0:10:52.959 cases at this late date, and it would look at 0:10:52.960 --> 0:10:56.000 everything from lies in twenty three in testimony that was 0:10:56.040 --> 0:10:58.520 given in twenty three all the way back to the 0:10:58.559 --> 0:11:02.200 original clearing of Hillary and the concocting of the Russia 0:11:02.240 --> 0:11:05.880 collusion case, and I think when you see that pattern, 0:11:06.679 --> 0:11:08.920 they may be able to convince the grand jury somewhere 0:11:08.920 --> 0:11:14.440 in Middle America that the pattern of Washern's repeat, which 0:11:14.480 --> 0:11:18.199 is Democrat has a legal problem. Hillary Clinton with her server, 0:11:18.679 --> 0:11:24.319 Joe Biden with his Hunter Biden foreign money schemes, Joe 0:11:24.400 --> 0:11:28.680 Biden with his classified documents. They pivot immediately to protect 0:11:28.720 --> 0:11:31.440 the Democrat, don't let them face consequences, and try to 0:11:31.480 --> 0:11:34.680 project a similar scandal on Donald Trump runs a collusion 0:11:34.760 --> 0:11:40.360 in sixteen Ukraine, impeachment in twenty nineteen, classified documents, mar 0:11:40.400 --> 0:11:44.080 A Lago raid twenty twenty two. So if that is 0:11:44.800 --> 0:11:48.520 viewed as one ongoing conspiracy to abuse government powers and 0:11:48.600 --> 0:11:52.040 violate civil liberties of Americans, maybe the Justice Department can 0:11:52.080 --> 0:11:52.959 bring some indictments. 0:11:53.120 --> 0:11:54.400 Hi, Quick break, Welcome back. 0:11:54.440 --> 0:11:57.400 More with John Solomon and Greg Jarrett on the other side, 0:11:57.640 --> 0:12:00.199 and also your calls coming up later will also we'll 0:12:00.240 --> 0:12:01.719 look at the president's action and. 0:12:06.320 --> 0:12:08.920 The left wants to silence Handity. 0:12:09.280 --> 0:12:10.680 Don't let it happen. 0:12:10.920 --> 0:12:16.240 Make the commitment now three hours every day at three pm. 0:12:16.679 --> 0:12:19.360 This is the Sean Hannity Show. 0:12:20.200 --> 0:12:22.319 All right, how many times have you told someone if 0:12:22.320 --> 0:12:24.800 it ain't broke, don't fix it now.

Unfortunately, thanks to pure Talk, your 0:12:36.360 --> 0:12:39.520 cell phone is something you can replace without feeling guilty. 0:12:39.800 --> 0:12:42.320 When you switch to pure talk this month, they're going 0:12:42.360 --> 0:12:45.880 to give you a Samsung Galaxy eight thirty six for 0:12:45.920 --> 0:12:49.400 free with a thirty five dollars qualifying plan just thirty 0:12:49.400 --> 0:12:52.280 five bucks a month for talk and text and data 0:12:52.320 --> 0:12:56.880 and a free Samsung phone with scratch resistant gorilla glass 0:12:56.960 --> 0:12:59.560 and a battery that lasts all day.

All right, we continue with 0:13:25.679 --> 0:13:30.200 investigative reporter founder editor in chief justinews dot com John Solomon, 0:13:30.480 --> 0:13:33.760 Hawk's News legal analyst, best selling author Greg jaredder with us. 0:13:34.160 --> 0:13:37.079 Greg Jarrett, do you see this actually coming to fruition? 0:13:37.200 --> 0:13:40.520 And here's the thing so many people feel, and a 0:13:40.559 --> 0:13:43.760 lot of people in this audience feel that over the years, 0:13:44.200 --> 0:13:48.959 they they that all this evidence has existed and that 0:13:49.120 --> 0:13:53.280 we get to the precipice only to never get to justice. 0:13:53.400 --> 0:13:55.120 Is this going to be different this time? 0:13:56.120 --> 0:13:59.280 Well, it is because you have dramatically different people in 0:13:59.400 --> 0:14:02.880 charge of the Department of Justice and the FBI who 0:14:02.880 --> 0:14:07.560 were determined to expose the truth and to prosecute those 0:14:07.600 --> 0:14:12.719 who violated the law. And you know, these recently declassified 0:14:12.800 --> 0:14:18.360 documents showed quite clearly how Barack Obama and his White House, 0:14:18.440 --> 0:14:22.120 Hillary Clinton, and the people in our campaign, top people 0:14:22.160 --> 0:14:27.040 in the intelligence community all criminally conspired to frame Trump. 0:14:28.080 --> 0:14:32.120 They peddled knowingly phony information, a lot of it they 0:14:32.160 --> 0:14:36.120 peddled to the government that's defrauding the government, and then 0:14:36.240 --> 0:14:42.400 they altered intelligence to support their bogus narrative, abuse of power. 0:14:42.440 --> 0:14:46.040 And the most obvious grand jury targets I think would 0:14:46.080 --> 0:14:48.840 be Brennan Clapper and coming. But I think you can 0:14:48.920 --> 0:14:53.680 expect Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton to receive grand jury subpoenas, 0:14:54.360 --> 0:14:58.160 and you can expect a lineup of whistleblowers who are 0:14:58.560 --> 0:15:02.240 prepared to implicate them and others who were involved in 0:15:02.360 --> 0:15:07.720 the conspiracy to defraud the government, deprivation of rights under 0:15:07.760 --> 0:15:11.320 color of law, and obstruction of justice and what turned 0:15:11.320 --> 0:15:14.880 out to be a very elaborate cover up that I 0:15:14.920 --> 0:15:20.040 think extends to the lawfair indictments, as John mentioned, brought 0:15:20.040 --> 0:15:23.560 by Special counsel Jack Smith, mar a Lago ray and 0:15:23.640 --> 0:15:30.360 a continuing cover up. So I actually am optimistic that 0:15:30.440 --> 0:15:36.520 the people involved in this grand criminal conspiracy may actually 0:15:36.560 --> 0:15:38.520 be held accountable in courts of law. 0:15:39.560 --> 0:15:41.800 What else is coming this week, John Solomon, we got 0:15:41.840 --> 0:15:42.920 about twenty seconds. 0:15:43.200 --> 0:15:45.200 Yeah, listen, you're going to find out that the FBI 0:15:45.760 --> 0:15:49.680 concluded numerous legacy media stories that cemented the fake RUSS 0:15:49.720 --> 0:15:53.600 reclusion story contained classified intelligence. They had good suspects, They 0:15:53.640 --> 0:15:56.120 never rounded anybody up, but they did get an amazing 0:15:56.120 --> 0:15:59.080 admission about James Comby. You're gonna get to see that tonight. 0:16:00.240 --> 0:16:04.960 Ooh, I'm interested in this one. All right, that's tonight 0:16:05.040 --> 0:16:08.840 nine Eastern Hannity on Fox News. Anyway, We appreciate you, 0:16:09.240 --> 0:16:12.200 John Solomon, Thanks for being with us, Greg Jarrett, you're 0:16:12.200 --> 0:16:14.800 going to stick around. We're going to talk about the 0:16:14.920 --> 0:16:18.160 National Guard and federalization that's going on in DC and 0:16:18.240 --> 0:16:21.640 the left wings crazy reaction. All right, So there's a 0:16:21.640 --> 0:16:27.520 lot to get to involving the legality, if you will, 0:16:28.200 --> 0:16:32.200 as it relates to Donald Trump National Guard. And I 0:16:32.240 --> 0:16:35.200 want to be very clear upront, because the corrupt state 0:16:35.280 --> 0:16:39.440 run legacy media mob is plat out doing what they 0:16:39.440 --> 0:16:43.040 always do, and that's lying to you. The President invoke 0:16:43.120 --> 0:16:46.400 what's called Section seven forty of the District of Columbia 0:16:46.440 --> 0:16:50.520 Home Rule Act, which would place the city's metropolitan police 0:16:50.520 --> 0:16:54.400 department under direct federal control. The President also will put 0:16:54.480 --> 0:16:58.720 National Guard troops in place in an effort to combat crime. 0:16:59.760 --> 0:17:01.440 Went through these numbers yesterday. 0:17:01.840 --> 0:17:05.040 If you look at the homicide rate capital cities around 0:17:05.119 --> 0:17:08.960 the world, by far, Washington, d C is the worst, 0:17:09.040 --> 0:17:12.680 forty one per hundred thousand people. The next closest would 0:17:12.720 --> 0:17:17.240 be Uruguay sixteen point one per one hundred thousand people. 0:17:17.960 --> 0:17:23.400 Baghdad is you know, more than almost three times safer 0:17:24.280 --> 0:17:29.919 than Washington, d C. Fifteen point two per one hundred 0:17:29.920 --> 0:17:33.119 thousand in terms of their homicide rate. Again, DC's forty 0:17:33.160 --> 0:17:36.600 one per hundred thousand. Panama City, Panama fourteen point three, 0:17:36.680 --> 0:17:44.480 Brazil thirteen, Costa Rica thirteen, Bogata, Colombia eleven, Bolivia ten 0:17:44.520 --> 0:17:51.280 point seven, Mexico City, Mexico, eight, Lima, Peru seven, Ethiopia six, 0:17:51.400 --> 0:17:58.000 Buenos Aires, Argentina five point five, Estonia, Kenya, Havana, Cuba 0:17:58.080 --> 0:18:03.400 is four per hundred thousand. Washington, DC a wopping forty one. 0:18:04.200 --> 0:18:05.080 I mean, and. 0:18:05.240 --> 0:18:09.480 What's really spectacular about this? When you listen to the 0:18:09.600 --> 0:18:14.320 left wing media, they have been pushing a talking point 0:18:14.480 --> 0:18:16.239 and when I heard it, I said, well, that can 0:18:16.400 --> 0:18:19.439 possibly be right, And my gut was right based on 0:18:19.480 --> 0:18:22.240 the Washington Free Beacon. Today they have an article out 0:18:22.280 --> 0:18:25.040 that says, is DC crime at a thirty year low? 0:18:25.160 --> 0:18:32.040 Mainstream media outlet cite police data to say yes, without noting, oh, 0:18:32.160 --> 0:18:36.440 I mean there's context and texture and information that I'm providing. 0:18:36.720 --> 0:18:37.320 What a shock. 0:18:37.760 --> 0:18:40.119 I wonder why the state run legacy media mob is 0:18:40.160 --> 0:18:44.399 officially dead without noting that a commander is currently on 0:18:44.600 --> 0:18:50.960 leave for allegedly falsifying the data. The DC Fraternal Order 0:18:51.000 --> 0:18:54.919 of Police chairman said in July that the Metropolitan Police 0:18:55.000 --> 0:19:01.520 leaders are have been pressuring officers to falsify data artificially 0:19:01.640 --> 0:19:07.959 deflate crime statistics. And Political reported Monday that crime in 0:19:08.119 --> 0:19:11.280 Washington has hit a thirty year low last year, despite 0:19:11.320 --> 0:19:14.600 the President declaring a public safety emergency in the district, 0:19:14.960 --> 0:19:17.960 and PR says the same thing. Oh, the President ordered 0:19:17.960 --> 0:19:21.880 a federal intervention despite the fact that violent crime plunged 0:19:21.920 --> 0:19:23.160 to a thirty year low. 0:19:23.680 --> 0:19:26.120 It goes on and on, but every one of. 0:19:26.080 --> 0:19:30.960 These publications based their stories on data collected by the 0:19:31.000 --> 0:19:35.639 Metropolitan Police Department, which the Biden administration touted just before 0:19:35.760 --> 0:19:39.480 leaving office. Total crime violent crime for twenty twenty four 0:19:39.600 --> 0:19:42.440 the District of Columbia's down thirty five percent from twenty 0:19:42.520 --> 0:19:45.440 twenty three, the lowest had spent in thirty years. Then, 0:19:45.560 --> 0:19:51.040 the Metropolitan Police Department in July suspended at police commander 0:19:52.080 --> 0:19:57.159 for allegedly manipulating crime numbers in his reports. According to 0:19:57.200 --> 0:20:00.960 the DC Fraternal Order of Police chairman, who old NBC 0:20:01.080 --> 0:20:06.159 four in Washington, d C that officials often pressure officers 0:20:06.200 --> 0:20:10.960 to falsify statistics in order to make the city seem faster. 0:20:11.440 --> 0:20:15.080 With that knowledge that, of course, the mainstream media is 0:20:15.200 --> 0:20:20.240 selectively not telling their audiences, which by the way, shouldn't 0:20:20.240 --> 0:20:24.960 shock anybody. We welcome to the program. Fox News legal analyst, 0:20:25.000 --> 0:20:28.800 New York Times bestselling author Greg Jarrett stays with us 0:20:28.840 --> 0:20:33.840 and William Jacobson, Cornell Law professor. All right, so let's 0:20:33.880 --> 0:20:36.480 talk about, first of all, the manipulation of numbers. Let's 0:20:36.480 --> 0:20:39.440 talk about the comparisons. Greg Jarrett will start with you, 0:20:39.560 --> 0:20:42.800 and the legality of what President Trump is doing here 0:20:43.800 --> 0:20:46.000 and the way the media has covered it. And you know, 0:20:46.080 --> 0:20:48.960 we have the worst capital city in terms of the 0:20:49.040 --> 0:20:52.920 homicide rate in the entire world. And you why would 0:20:52.920 --> 0:20:56.080 the left in this country be so adamant against protecting 0:20:56.080 --> 0:20:59.240 innocent people they're protecting themselves. 0:21:00.320 --> 0:21:03.639 Is run by far left politicians, city Council of the mayor, 0:21:04.200 --> 0:21:06.320 so they cook the books to try to fool you 0:21:06.359 --> 0:21:10.320 into thinking, oh, it's everything's fine in dandy in Washington, DC. 0:21:10.480 --> 0:21:16.280 Anybody who has spent time there knows that is absolutely untrue. 0:21:16.600 --> 0:21:20.480 And you know, the worst of it is the carjackings. 0:21:20.920 --> 0:21:23.600 You know that more than half of those are committed 0:21:23.600 --> 0:21:26.840 by minors sixty percent or fifteen and sixteen years old, 0:21:27.240 --> 0:21:31.920 as young as twelve, guns are involved seventy two percent 0:21:31.960 --> 0:21:35.800 of the time. And you know, local authorities refuse to 0:21:35.880 --> 0:21:39.720 prosecute them as adults, and no wonder. There have been 0:21:39.760 --> 0:21:44.320 more than a thousand carjackings in the last three years, 0:21:44.359 --> 0:21:49.120 some of which include terrible beatings and shootings, a congressman 0:21:49.520 --> 0:21:55.479 carjacked at gunpoint and FBI agent carjacked. But you know 0:21:55.680 --> 0:21:59.399 the local prosecutor there, he's called the DC Attorney General. 0:21:59.680 --> 0:22:02.080 He did dismisses it all by saying, and I'm quoting 0:22:02.200 --> 0:22:05.480 your kids or kids as if it's okay. It's not okay. 0:22:05.840 --> 0:22:09.840 The solution is simple. DC is basically a ward of 0:22:09.880 --> 0:22:14.040 the federal government that gives the President ample authority to 0:22:14.040 --> 0:22:17.560 do what he's doing. Under the Home Rule Act, he 0:22:17.640 --> 0:22:22.000 can seize control of the Metropolitan Police Department on an 0:22:22.080 --> 0:22:26.800 emergency basis. For a more sustain takeover, he would need 0:22:26.840 --> 0:22:30.440 the permission of Congress, but I suspect he'd get it 0:22:30.840 --> 0:22:35.600 because those people live in fear working at the nation's capital. 0:22:36.160 --> 0:22:38.680 You know this is not the only place. Now, I'll 0:22:38.720 --> 0:22:41.800 give you the full quote, Bill Jacobson, and welcome back 0:22:41.840 --> 0:22:43.919 to the program. I'm good to have you back, The 0:22:44.000 --> 0:22:47.480 DC Police union chief said quote to evade public scrutiny. 0:22:47.560 --> 0:22:52.880 Metropolitan Police Department leadership is deliberately falsifying crime data, creating 0:22:52.920 --> 0:22:57.280 the false narrative of reduced crime while communities are suffering. 0:22:58.240 --> 0:23:02.520 DC is not the only large, democratic run city where 0:23:02.520 --> 0:23:05.719 major crimes are being under reported. If you go back 0:23:05.800 --> 0:23:09.520 to Chicago Magazine and a few years back, Chicago Magazine 0:23:09.560 --> 0:23:16.520 found dozens of crimes, including serious felonies, robberies, burglaries, assaults, 0:23:17.080 --> 0:23:21.840 and even worse than that classified or downgraded to risk 0:23:21.920 --> 0:23:25.960 slap offenses or made to vanish all together. In New 0:23:26.040 --> 0:23:31.159 York City, we had an NYPD transit commander accused of 0:23:31.240 --> 0:23:36.080 quote faking New York City subway crime statistics. So this 0:23:36.160 --> 0:23:39.840 seems to be the general practice is to put your 0:23:39.880 --> 0:23:44.280 head in the sand and lie. A DC councilman who's 0:23:44.320 --> 0:23:48.000 been charged with taking bribes doesn't like Trump's anti crime crackdown. 0:23:48.400 --> 0:23:51.720 That's not a big surprise. And one ABC News anchor 0:23:51.760 --> 0:23:54.200 revealed that she was mugged in DC by a half 0:23:54.320 --> 0:23:58.960 naked vagrant, Kyra Phillips, And I'm like, oh, okay, why 0:23:59.000 --> 0:24:01.600 wouldn't they want law and order? Why wouldn't they want 0:24:01.640 --> 0:24:06.080 safety and security? Why wouldn't you want a stronger police presence? 0:24:06.119 --> 0:24:09.080 If you have the number one it's the number one 0:24:09.320 --> 0:24:14.119 capital of any country in terms of the homicide rate worldwide. 0:24:14.160 --> 0:24:16.159 Why would you not want to protect innocent people? 0:24:16.560 --> 0:24:19.160 Well, you know, I think it's a political outlook. It's 0:24:19.160 --> 0:24:22.840 something you know, Democrats, Socialists of America. It's that sort 0:24:22.840 --> 0:24:27.200 of outlook. It's you know, sores back district attorneys now 0:24:27.200 --> 0:24:32.120 looks that views cracking down on crime as somehow an offense, 0:24:32.520 --> 0:24:34.800 not the offense on which you're cracking down. So that's 0:24:34.800 --> 0:24:38.520 really the issue. It's a political outlet outlook. It's all 0:24:38.600 --> 0:24:42.040 motivated by that. Of course, there's also a twinge to 0:24:42.119 --> 0:24:46.200 it nowadays of Trump derangement syndrome. But it's baffling. Why 0:24:46.200 --> 0:24:50.639 would democrats not want people protected in a Democrat city. 0:24:51.160 --> 0:24:53.840 It makes no sense. So it's got to be ideological. 0:24:53.960 --> 0:24:57.280 They just do not like law enforcement and they would 0:24:57.359 --> 0:25:01.000 rather have people get mugged and carjacked then crack down. 0:25:01.280 --> 0:25:03.239 All right, quick break, We'll come right back more with 0:25:03.400 --> 0:25:08.000 Greg Jarrett William Jacobson, Cornell Law professor on the other side. Also, 0:25:08.040 --> 0:25:10.160 your calls coming up eight hundred and ninety four one. 0:25:10.200 --> 0:25:17.040 Shawn is on number as we continue this Tuesday. How 0:25:17.080 --> 0:25:23.359 does this sound Sean Hennity for our president. Stay tuned, 0:25:23.600 --> 0:25:25.720
