Buck Sexton, 7 00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:41,760 Speaker 1: with America now joined the conversation called Buck toll free 8 00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:45,440 Speaker 1: at eight four four nine hundred Buck.

Buck Sexton Team, Welcome to the Freedom Hut. 11 00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 1: Great to have you here with me. As always, honor 12 00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 1: and a privilege. A four four nine hundred two eight 13 00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:07,520 Speaker 1: to five eight four for nine hundred Buck. I think 14 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:10,640 Speaker 1: that there will be many of you listening who will 15 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,880 Speaker 1: care to share some opinions today. That is an early guess, 16 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:16,400 Speaker 1: although it's it's tough to know. Some days on this 17 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:18,800 Speaker 1: show we have all the lines lit for pretty much 18 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 1: the whole time I'm on air. Other days and I'm like, 19 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:23,240 Speaker 1: you know, who wants to who wants to tell me 20 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 1: I'm wrong on something and the line or tell me 21 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 1: I'm right the line doesn't ring, so we will see 22 00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:30,200 Speaker 1: how much you want away in. But it would be 23 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,479 Speaker 1: great to hear from you on this because a bunch 24 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:34,680 Speaker 1: of things happened today. I guess a bunch of things 25 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:39,120 Speaker 1: happen every day, but in particular, we will focus on 26 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:44,680 Speaker 1: the push for tax reform, Trump's return from his Asia 27 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:49,400 Speaker 1: trip and talk, and his talk about the need to 28 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 1: deal with China and trade better. We'll update you on 29 00:01:54,440 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 1: every day four weeks now another see areas of sexual 30 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 1: harassment allegations out there against different individuals. Will talk to 31 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:08,359 Speaker 1: you about that. And then also, maybe just for fun, 32 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:12,240 Speaker 1: because why not, we can discuss the articles of impeachment 33 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: introduced by a few House Democrats today for Donald Trump. Wow. Wow, 34 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 1: that's not going to go very far. That's not going 35 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 1: to do very much at all. I think that's um. 36 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:27,919 Speaker 1: In fact, there's not. There are a few things that 37 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:29,639 Speaker 1: I'm getting ahead of myself because I want to talk 38 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 1: to you more about this later. There are a few 39 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:36,960 Speaker 1: things that I can think of that would be more 40 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 1: helpful to Trump than some noisy leftists really pushing this 41 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 1: notion of impeachment, impeachment for what exactly, you know, they 42 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 1: hate him. A few things will get Trump's base. I would, 43 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:52,800 Speaker 1: I would argue to rally around him more quickly and 44 00:02:53,080 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 1: solidly than these uh, really frivolous impeachment allegations, which is 45 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 1: what they are. I mean, just nonsense, right, just absolute nonsense. 46 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 1: Still no verdict on the Menendez case, I should know, right, 47 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 1: not nothing yet we don't have I don't know where 48 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 1: that's gonna go. He would be the first they were 49 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 1: sent home. Okay, this is the jurors were sent home, 50 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 1: so they're gonna come back. Wow. And I remember watching 51 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 1: that O. J. Simpson FX show. That was a pretty 52 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 1: good overview. I feel like of what it's like to 53 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 1: be one of these jurors. You really you get sequestered 54 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 1: and they limit what you can see and read and everything. 55 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: I don't know, not not from not something I'm interested in. 56 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: But Menendez would be the first senator could be if 57 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 1: he has found guilty, remember this would be felony corruption. 58 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 1: Will be the first senator Oh gosh. And I mean 59 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 1: the the only senators really that were removed by the Senate, 60 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 1: with one exception that I can think of, were all Confederates. 61 00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 1: They were all people from the They're all senators for 62 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 1: the that that went with the Confederacy. Uh, there was 63 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 1: one guy who I think like seventeen nine, seven or 64 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 1: eight or eighteen hundred. I think he was part of 65 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 1: some effort to give back part of the country to 66 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 1: a foreign power or something like that. I'm forgetting the specifics, 67 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 1: but the point is a big deal if you have 68 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 1: a senator that has to be removed from the chamber 69 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:24,479 Speaker 1: by his fellow centers, which I think is because usually 70 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 1: what have people like well Buck there must have be 71 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:29,360 Speaker 1: another sent Yeah, usually they resigned, right, But Menendez may man, 72 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:32,160 Speaker 1: he may he may force the issue if he gets 73 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 1: if he gets convicted, he may say I'm gonna ride 74 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,919 Speaker 1: this out because if Chris otherwise, Chris Christy get to 75 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 1: pick the intern senator. So there there there are some 76 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:47,239 Speaker 1: issues issues here to be sure, um, and that's something 77 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 1: we will continue to follow. But look, it's it's the 78 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 1: biggest still the biggest story in the country right now. 79 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 1: And we just had a press conference, press conference before 80 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 1: we went on air about the roy More situation, the 81 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 1: roy More allegations. This is now a a focus, um 82 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,040 Speaker 1: the media is well, it's been a focus for days, 83 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,600 Speaker 1: but now it's it's getting the point where You've had 84 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:19,160 Speaker 1: a lot of Republicans pull out their support the r 85 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 1: n what is it, the Republican National Senatorial Committee at 86 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 1: r n SC. I think it was pulled out their 87 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 1: support fundraising support. You've had Ted Cruz, Paul Ryan, obviously, 88 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:35,280 Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell before any of them, John McCain, if you've 89 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 1: had a whole bunch, Mike Lee, thank you time, Mike Lee. 90 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 1: You've had a whole bunch of Republicans. They're saying Nope, 91 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 1: not not okay with this. They they want Roy Moore 92 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 1: to step down. And there's more. There's more talk and 93 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 1: discussion of the possibility of a write in candidacy for 94 00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:03,160 Speaker 1: write in candidacy for Sessions to take over, so he 95 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 1: would leave the d o J and he would take 96 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:08,919 Speaker 1: over the Alabama sentency, assuming that he was successful in 97 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 1: all of this. So I want to here's here's where 98 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:17,839 Speaker 1: the press conference went earlier today. I'm just gonna play 99 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:20,279 Speaker 1: a little bit of this for you. The big, the 100 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:24,720 Speaker 1: big debate right now, within this whole argument over who 101 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:29,160 Speaker 1: do you believe the more Camp or his accusers, it 102 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 1: is focused in now on this note that Gloria Allread 103 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:39,719 Speaker 1: and Nelson miss Nelson, the the accuser from earlier in 104 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 1: the week, said that the note was written by Roy 105 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 1: Moore in her high school yearbook when he was in 106 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,479 Speaker 1: his thirties, and a lot a lot of people understand, 107 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,279 Speaker 1: they're saying, Okay, well, Roy claims right to never have 108 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:55,600 Speaker 1: met her, never have he claimed to have no contact 109 00:06:55,640 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 1: with her at that time around that period, and she's saying, 110 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:05,480 Speaker 1: not only did he assault me, but also I've got 111 00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 1: this note in my year bucket. We talked about this 112 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 1: early week, but just to bring us all in an 113 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 1: up to date position here now earlier today, and I 114 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 1: think we probably have some of this. We could probably 115 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 1: play some of this um audio for you. The More 116 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 1: team has been the legal team has been problematic today 117 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 1: for just regardless of of who's telling the truth and 118 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 1: who's not. Just from an optics perspective, the More squad 119 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: has not been doing a a strong job of making 120 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 1: the case for him. There was a season desist letter 121 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 1: that went out that quite honestly, look, I'm not this 122 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 1: is not me saying I believe or don't believe anything. 123 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 1: This is just me analyzing what's happening. And that season 124 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 1: desist letter look like and forget about it was written 125 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 1: by a first year law student, looked like it was 126 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 1: written by a first year high school student. And it 127 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 1: was really uh jumbled and weak and confused. And when 128 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 1: you're in when you're at this level of national scrutiny, 129 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 1: you gotta have a legal team that knows which way 130 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: is up. I mean, they've got to know what's going on. 131 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 1: So that was one problem, and the other problems I 132 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 1: don't even know if we have the Do we have 133 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 1: that Velshi audio from earlier today? No, sorry, we'll get it. 134 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 1: We'll get it later. Another lawyer representing more just stepped 135 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 1: in it on TV, and it's just not not helping 136 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 1: the cause. I will say. The lawyer that just had 137 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: this press conference right before we went on air, that 138 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 1: lawyer fer Roy Moore, seemed pretty squared away. There, seemed 139 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,719 Speaker 1: to be a much better he seemed to have a 140 00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 1: much better grasp of the stakes and of everything that's 141 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 1: going on here. And the handwriting in this yearbook. That's 142 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 1: what the focus has become, the handwriting in this year book. 143 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 1: And here is just a part of that. Will analyze 144 00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 1: this later with a with a legal analyst, the specifics 145 00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:00,719 Speaker 1: of where this will allgo. But I just want to 146 00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:06,439 Speaker 1: share some of this press conference with you. Remember I 147 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 1: told you about that divorce action. Judge Moore looked at 148 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 1: that D A after his signature, which they alleged was 149 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,840 Speaker 1: because he was the district attorney. Will He wasn't, he 150 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 1: was the assistant district attorney. But Judge Moore says he 151 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:22,959 Speaker 1: can't ever remember ever signing his name with D A 152 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 1: after it, but he had seen it before, you know 153 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:29,800 Speaker 1: where he had seen it when he was on the bench. 154 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:34,079 Speaker 1: His assistant, whose initials are capital D period a period, 155 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 1: Delver Adams, would stamp his signature on documents and then 156 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 1: put capital D period a period. That's exactly how the 157 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 1: signature appears on the divorce decree that Judge Moore signed 158 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:51,520 Speaker 1: dismissing the divorce action with miss Nelson. So this is 159 00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 1: his team saying that there's an explanation for that handwriting 160 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 1: in that signature. Uh. They're saying it's a forgery clearly, 161 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:01,680 Speaker 1: and they're saying that there's a way that they would 162 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 1: have been able to find afford it. Now, this is 163 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 1: gonna get very contentious. I will say that there were 164 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 1: there were rumblings today among those that I talked to 165 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:18,200 Speaker 1: including some who have some connections into well into the 166 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 1: the higher echelons of political reporting, and and to some 167 00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 1: of the folks in d C who are exerting a 168 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:27,720 Speaker 1: lot of pressure here in the Republican Party on More. 169 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,080 Speaker 1: It seemed like when they called for a press comments 170 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 1: five o'clock today that he might be stepping down, that 171 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:36,560 Speaker 1: that was the rumor. Now clearly that is not what happened. 172 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:39,960 Speaker 1: In fact, More went in the opposite direction, and his 173 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:44,679 Speaker 1: team has said, no, way not what was his that 174 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:47,719 Speaker 1: was his Oh yeah, well, we'll get to that in 175 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 1: a little bit. We're gonna we're gonna play the earlier today. Attorney. 176 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:52,560 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna play it for you because it's an 177 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:56,960 Speaker 1: example of, you know, you got to be very crisp, concise, 178 00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,600 Speaker 1: clear on television with your message. And it's especially when 179 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 1: you're representing somebody else. You can't try to get try 180 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,320 Speaker 1: to get cute on TV or I don't even know 181 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 1: what this guy was doing, quite honestly, But we'll play 182 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:11,320 Speaker 1: that for you a little bit. You have to hold 183 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:13,719 Speaker 1: through on that. It was an example of what not 184 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 1: to do if you're an attorney who's going on TV 185 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 1: making a case. Uh, anyway, back to the handwriting here, 186 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 1: this all turns on right now, whether or not that 187 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:26,360 Speaker 1: handwriting was in fact Roy Moore, because if it's more 188 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:29,079 Speaker 1: is at that point. At that point, all you're saying 189 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,360 Speaker 1: is if you're willing to still vote for him, if 190 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 1: you like, if he lied about that. What you're saying 191 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:37,920 Speaker 1: is that it matters more to have a Republican have 192 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 1: that seat than to send any kind of message about 193 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:46,160 Speaker 1: u morality and ethics in our political system and with 194 00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:50,319 Speaker 1: the Republican Party. And also that the long term reputational 195 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:53,679 Speaker 1: damage that the Republican Party may suffer as a result 196 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:58,679 Speaker 1: of having somebody who is accused of and I think 197 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 1: people in that circumstances circumstance would even be more willing 198 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 1: to say incredibly accused of sexual misconduct in this way, 199 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 1: that would be different. But if the if the handwriting 200 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 1: is found to be and they're calling for an outside 201 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 1: expert to look at it, to have Gloria all Read 202 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:19,559 Speaker 1: released custody of the document to a third party that 203 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:21,559 Speaker 1: will be neutral, and there's all this We'll get into 204 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:24,960 Speaker 1: some legal specifics with you later. But if if that 205 00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 1: happens and for some reason there's real, a real question 206 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:34,160 Speaker 1: about the the authenticity of that note. Uh, then you 207 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 1: know someone's gonna have a lot of explaining to do 208 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 1: here unless this just turns into well, and I think 209 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:41,720 Speaker 1: this could very well be the case. By the way, 210 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,840 Speaker 1: our experts says it's not his handwriting. Their expert says, 211 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,560 Speaker 1: it is his handwriting, right, which I have. I have 212 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:50,520 Speaker 1: my concerns, and and then we're kind of just back 213 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 1: where we are now, which is just who do you believe? 214 00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 1: Who do you believe? UM do I do? I think 215 00:12:56,880 --> 00:13:00,880 Speaker 1: that we have a lot of accuser and a lot 216 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 1: of people coming out to say that Judge Moore was 217 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 1: dating a lot of a lot of apart this is 218 00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:10,439 Speaker 1: entirely apart from these specific criminal allegations, which is the 219 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:12,680 Speaker 1: main focus of this, but a lot of people saying 220 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:14,319 Speaker 1: he was dating young women. And when he was asked 221 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:16,800 Speaker 1: about whether you know he dated, he said, I've never 222 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 1: outdated anybody without asking for their parents permission. There's this 223 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 1: was not a strong defense. And that's why I think 224 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 1: Sean last night Hannity uh said Roy Moore needs to 225 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:30,959 Speaker 1: explain this within twenty four hours or else I'm pulling 226 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:34,120 Speaker 1: my support and he should step down because clearly they're 227 00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:36,360 Speaker 1: there needed to be some explaining of what's going on here. 228 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:41,560 Speaker 1: There is the handwriting enough of an explanation for well, look, 229 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:44,680 Speaker 1: you you tell me eight four four eight to five 230 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 1: eight four four nine buck and I will just say this, 231 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:51,720 Speaker 1: These are very they are very serious allegations, and I 232 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:55,200 Speaker 1: do think that there are there are limits, even in 233 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:59,640 Speaker 1: our bare knuckle all in political environment, there are limits 234 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 1: to what any of us should be willing to accept 235 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 1: from a from a politician, even as unethical and grotesque 236 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 1: as the other side was willing to be for Clinton 237 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 1: and many others, there still should be there still should 238 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 1: be limits. That said, I'm also well aware of the 239 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 1: fact that Dan Rather try to throw a presidential election 240 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 1: by having straight up forged documents on TV. That is 241 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 1: just a that is a fact, and that is history. 242 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:27,720 Speaker 1: That happened, no question about it, and Rather lost his job. 243 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 1: You can imagine how tough it was for that guy 244 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 1: to get fired by CBS after the decades of building 245 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:36,360 Speaker 1: him up as something other than a guy in a 246 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:38,520 Speaker 1: suit who's reading off of a prompt threap. But anyway, 247 00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:41,320 Speaker 1: they still have him on TV. I should note today 248 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:45,200 Speaker 1: they'll have him on TV two. Let him weigh in 249 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 1: on the state of American journalism. Oh yeah, it's done. Rather, 250 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 1: it was very, very author authoritative on journalism and ethics. Yeah, 251 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,360 Speaker 1: he ran fake, fake National Guard documents to try and 252 00:14:56,360 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 1: get Bush to lose the election. He did that. That happened, 253 00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 1: So I think it's fair to say that, you know, 254 00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:08,960 Speaker 1: we should see what happens with his handwriting analysis. But 255 00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:13,440 Speaker 1: what if the handwriting analysis comes Well, I won't speculate 256 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 1: on the what if one way or the other right now, 257 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 1: I want to know what you think. Eight four four 258 00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 1: to five, we will have Emily Campagno joining us to 259 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 1: talk about the legal ins and outs of this. We'll 260 00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 1: also discuss some updates on Fusion, g p S and 261 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 1: Trump's return from the Far East and oh so much. 262 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 1: Oh and uh one of the worst, one of the 263 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:37,600 Speaker 1: worst leaders on the planet and no longer in charge 264 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 1: in Zimbabwe. So that's a good thing. Boton Mugabe is 265 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 1: uh is out. We should all celebrate that a little bit. 266 00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:45,400 Speaker 1: I'll tell you a bit about that later. Stay with me. 267 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 1: There's another accuser. There's another accuser that's just broke right 268 00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:57,240 Speaker 1: before we came on air, A Gadsden woman. This is Uh, 269 00:15:57,360 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 1: a a L duck. Is that al What does a 270 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:04,320 Speaker 1: L stand Alabama dot com? Okay, yeah, a L dot com. Yeah. 271 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 1: A Gadsden woman says Roy Moore groped her while she 272 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:09,960 Speaker 1: was in his law office on legal business with her mother. 273 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 1: More was married at that time. In the past week, 274 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:16,680 Speaker 1: More has been accused by five other women of a 275 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:20,120 Speaker 1: range of behaviors that include sexual misconduct with a woman 276 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:23,160 Speaker 1: when she was fourteen and sexual assault of another one 277 00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 1: she was sixteen. This is the first public accusation of 278 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 1: physical contact that happened after More was married. Okay, well, 279 00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 1: you know, I think it's fair to I wrote and 280 00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 1: I were talking to the break, there's gonna be more. 281 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:40,920 Speaker 1: I mean, I think there's this is this is not 282 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,600 Speaker 1: the last of the allegations. So now you know, you 283 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,200 Speaker 1: all of us who are going to form an opinion here, 284 00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:52,720 Speaker 1: you know you got a choice to make. Either Roy 285 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 1: Moore is in the midst of a huge set up, right, 286 00:16:57,800 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 1: these are the only choices at this point. Roy Moore 287 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:03,040 Speaker 1: is being set up by the by the media, and 288 00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:06,160 Speaker 1: these women are somehow being coaxing this or Roy Moore 289 00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:12,359 Speaker 1: is a is a sexual predator. That's it. There's there's 290 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:15,760 Speaker 1: no other. Right, there's no third option here. There's no 291 00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 1: this is a misunderstanding or anything else. So you you 292 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:23,040 Speaker 1: either think that this is a a massive conspiracy or 293 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:26,480 Speaker 1: you think that this is uh, that that Roy Moore 294 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:29,399 Speaker 1: is a guy of uh. He's got a lot of 295 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 1: skeletons in the closet and they are all coming out. Now, 296 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:35,359 Speaker 1: that's that's I don't know what. I don't know what 297 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:38,280 Speaker 1: the third option could even possibly be. All Right, we 298 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 1: got Paul calling in from Alabama. Hey Paul, Hey, well, 299 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 1: thank you for having me. Thank you.

I'm forty one years old, 304 00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:57,320 Speaker 1: you know, a little over twenty years ago. I went 305 00:17:57,359 --> 00:17:59,879 Speaker 1: to high school and signed a lot of yearbooks.

But did didn't this didn't 322 00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 1: Roy Moore claimed that he had had no he had 323 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:01,760 Speaker 1: never met her, no contact with her, Right, So you're 324 00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:03,520 Speaker 1: saying that he might have forgotten, he might she might 325 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 1: have just no, I go understand, You're saying that he 326 00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:09,720 Speaker 1: might have signed her yearbook not realize who she was, 327 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:12,439 Speaker 1: and then later on she fabricated this whole thing. But 328 00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:15,160 Speaker 1: why but why would she do but Paul, why would 329 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:18,720 Speaker 1: she do that? Well, from what I've just heard on 330 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 1: Hannity in the interview, she actually also said that they 331 00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:27,840 Speaker 1: hadn't had any contact since then. But Roy Moore presided 332 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:31,520 Speaker 1: over Paul, we will play that I don't mean to 333 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:32,920 Speaker 1: cut you off a running to a break here, we 334 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:34,720 Speaker 1: will play that sound by Paul. We're coming to that 335 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 1: and just a few stay with me, okay. So it 336 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 1: turned into a lawyer discussion in this afternoon with the 337 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 1: press conference Judge Roy Moore's team standing up in front 338 00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:49,240 Speaker 1: of the country and deciding that they're going to make 339 00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 1: this about a couple of issues at least right now. 340 00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 1: One of them had to do with the contact that 341 00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 1: judge the judge had or did not have in the 342 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 1: past with his user, and then also on the issue 343 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:04,359 Speaker 1: of handwriting. To help us analyze this, we have Emily 344 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:07,679 Speaker 1: Companio in studio with us here. She is a legal 345 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:11,439 Speaker 1: and sports business analyst. She's an attorney and you can 346 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 1: follow her at Emily Companio on Twitter. Emly great to 347 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:16,679 Speaker 1: have you, Thanks so much for having me. Okay, So 348 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:21,280 Speaker 1: let's deal with first the issue of the handwriting, because 349 00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 1: this seems to be I think the crux of the 350 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:26,879 Speaker 1: whole discussion right now of who do you believe? Whom 351 00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:29,880 Speaker 1: does one believer? Does someone believe the Roy Moore side 352 00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:32,480 Speaker 1: or they believe the accusers. It's right now all focused 353 00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:36,160 Speaker 1: on the handwriting. And here is what was said specifically 354 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 1: about where Judge Roy Moore is gone with this fourteen 355 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 1: Remember I told you about that four s action. Judge 356 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:47,360 Speaker 1: Moore looked at that D A after his signature, which 357 00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:49,840 Speaker 1: they alleged was because he was the district attorney. Will 358 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 1: he wasn't, he was the assistant district attorney. But Judge 359 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:56,400 Speaker 1: Moore says he can't ever remember ever signing his name 360 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 1: with D A after it, but he had seen it before, 361 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 1: you know where he had seen it when he was 362 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:06,440 Speaker 1: on the bench. His assistant, whose initials are capital D 363 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:11,159 Speaker 1: period a period, delbrah Adams, would stamp his signature on 364 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:15,080 Speaker 1: documents and then put capital D period a period. That's 365 00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 1: exactly how the signature appears on the divorce decree that 366 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 1: Judge Moore signed dismissing the divorce action with miss Nelson. 367 00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:27,880 Speaker 1: So now they're saying that they believe that that Roy 368 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 1: Moore's team his lawyer there, that they need to verify 369 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:34,399 Speaker 1: whether or not what came out in that press conference 370 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:38,480 Speaker 1: with Gloria Alred and his accuser is in fact an 371 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 1: accurate is real? Is is it a forgery or not? 372 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 1: How good are they at doing this, how how accurate 373 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:47,119 Speaker 1: would they be at this analysis? Or is there a 374 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:50,639 Speaker 1: lot of interpretation involved? Well in the courts eyes in 375 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:53,320 Speaker 1: terms of admissibility. So let's just talk about that for 376 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:55,720 Speaker 1: a second, not that this is heading to court, but 377 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,920 Speaker 1: because that's our barometer of authenticity of how we bear 378 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:02,040 Speaker 1: that standard of we care about this? Does this matter? 379 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,040 Speaker 1: Is it's not all the time admissible? So courts have 380 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:08,680 Speaker 1: often rolled actually that there is an amount of speculation 381 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:13,280 Speaker 1: involved with handwriting analysis. So for this type of thing, 382 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:17,000 Speaker 1: it's almost like a lie detector test where we treat 383 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 1: it as infallible at times, but it's not always infallible, 384 00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 1: and in the eyes of the court, it's not always admissible. 385 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 1: So it was an interesting point that his team made today, 386 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 1: a very detailed point, and it's one where I think 387 00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:37,320 Speaker 1: it will absolutely torpedo and explode into a whole public speculation, 388 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 1: because then what happens if they're allowed to actually do 389 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:43,119 Speaker 1: an analysis, let's say, and the results are conclusively in 390 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:46,160 Speaker 1: their favor, then what happens Do we then get into 391 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 1: an argument over, as you're saying, the interpretation of it. 392 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:52,280 Speaker 1: Do we get into an argument over the authenticity of 393 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 1: it are the results themselves concrete. So to me, it 394 00:22:56,400 --> 00:23:00,399 Speaker 1: was a very interesting opening of a can of worms, frankly, 395 00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:04,320 Speaker 1: and it might be a significant destruction. And then there 396 00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:08,480 Speaker 1: was also a discussion about when the last contact was 397 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:15,200 Speaker 1: had between Judge Moore. Judge Moore and his accuser. Here's 398 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:19,200 Speaker 1: what was said during the press conference that Miss Nelson 399 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 1: and Gloria Allread had on Monday. They both said that 400 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:29,439 Speaker 1: Ms Nelson, after the allegations, had never seen nor had 401 00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 1: any contact with Judge Moore. As it turns out, in 402 00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:39,160 Speaker 1: Miss Nelson filed a divorce action against her then husband, 403 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:44,119 Speaker 1: Mr Harris. Guess who that case was before it was 404 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:47,560 Speaker 1: filed in Ottawah County and the judge assigned was Roy S. Moore, 405 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 1: Circuit Judge of Ottawah County. There was contact, So this 406 00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:58,160 Speaker 1: doesn't seem to destroy the narrative one way or the other. 407 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 1: It's really just going after the credibility of the witness, 408 00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:03,840 Speaker 1: right because if there was contact many years later, it 409 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 1: wouldn't affect the initial allegations. But because they didn't disclose 410 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:11,680 Speaker 1: because the attack or did not accurately portray that there 411 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 1: was later on, there was contact later on. Seems like 412 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 1: this lawyer is saying that they have this is a 413 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 1: an inaccuracy that would seem minor, but it is meant 414 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:22,600 Speaker 1: to impugne the integrity of the wit or not the 415 00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 1: witness here, but of the accuser. Absolutely. That was my 416 00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:28,119 Speaker 1: first thought when I heard that part of it was 417 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:33,479 Speaker 1: that when small inconsistencies arise, that's exactly what happens. It 418 00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:37,800 Speaker 1: punctures the credibility of the entire witness, accuser, etcetera. And 419 00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:40,920 Speaker 1: that's what attorneys do in court on both sides, right, 420 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:44,679 Speaker 1: each side is tasked with destroying the credibility of whoever's 421 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:49,680 Speaker 1: statements you want to prove aren't true. And that's what's 422 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:54,280 Speaker 1: difficult in a victim or accusers position is when you 423 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:57,280 Speaker 1: have a level of specificity and detail that is important 424 00:24:57,320 --> 00:25:01,760 Speaker 1: to the accusations being levied, then there's any inconsistency at all, 425 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:05,760 Speaker 1: it renders the entire thing in dispute. It is impossible, 426 00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:09,760 Speaker 1: probably as humans, to remember something with a accuracy or 427 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:13,240 Speaker 1: to articulate or reported as such, but even a small 428 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:16,840 Speaker 1: inconsistency we pounce on it. But also rightly so, because 429 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:22,560 Speaker 1: the accused has also the right to have that credibility 430 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:27,680 Speaker 1: be analyzed and especially in this present day climate all 431 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:32,480 Speaker 1: over the place, we are instructed and feel that we 432 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 1: need to believe every allegation to ensure we're not victims shaming, 433 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:40,200 Speaker 1: But at what cost to the accused valor as well 434 00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:44,639 Speaker 1: their reputation as well? So um and I think the 435 00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:47,679 Speaker 1: most difficult part about this is when these stories are 436 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 1: presented in this holistic fashion and then small details are analyzed, 437 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 1: is that it doesn't necessarily have to do with the 438 00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 1: veracity at all, As you're saying, it can be true, true, 439 00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:01,000 Speaker 1: and unrelated, but how do we know? And that's what's 440 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 1: so hard about a jury, or a person or anyone listening, 441 00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 1: anyone tasks with this decision, and it's made harder when 442 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:12,199 Speaker 1: the accused is so vociferously defending against it. Yeah, this 443 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:15,360 Speaker 1: is all who do you believe? Much more so right now, 444 00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 1: right now, at least, it's it's who do you believe? 445 00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:21,680 Speaker 1: More so than we're presenting evidence whether the specific incident 446 00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:23,919 Speaker 1: in question happened or not. Right, it's which side do 447 00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 1: you find more credible in this whole dispute. They're not 448 00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:28,879 Speaker 1: presenting more evidence about the day in question where there 449 00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:31,520 Speaker 1: was the alleged assault. This is now all about handwriting 450 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:33,040 Speaker 1: that would have been later on, or I meaning it 451 00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:35,880 Speaker 1: would have been later on. It's essentially if somebody lie, 452 00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:38,240 Speaker 1: if someone is caught in a lie here about anything 453 00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:40,159 Speaker 1: that will harm them, even if it has nothing to 454 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 1: do with the actual allegation of previous criminal behavior, totally, 455 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:47,639 Speaker 1: And that's the point. Humans are complex. That's what we 456 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 1: deal with every days, attorneys. That's what we deal with 457 00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:53,040 Speaker 1: every day in our human relationships. Could people do bad things, 458 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:55,400 Speaker 1: bad people do good things? How do you separate? How 459 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:58,200 Speaker 1: do you how do you truly denounce an entire person 460 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:02,920 Speaker 1: for an inconsistency or I if they've cried wolf once 461 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:04,560 Speaker 1: or if they haven't cried once. I mean, it's just 462 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:08,239 Speaker 1: it's so complicated. But I think what's interesting is the 463 00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:11,120 Speaker 1: fact that we're having this conversation means that we are 464 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 1: in the minutia of their defense, and that was the strategy. 465 00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 1: We are all now dissecting handwriting and inconsistent statements and credibility, 466 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:23,879 Speaker 1: I mean under the rubric of credibility, which is important, 467 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 1: but it also when you kind of scope out begs 468 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 1: the original question of if someone is accused at all, 469 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:34,240 Speaker 1: if there's any question at all, is that someone that 470 00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 1: should be in the position that they still are is 471 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:40,080 Speaker 1: this is a political decision, This is not really a 472 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 1: legal decision, but it's being viewed through a legal prism 473 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:44,520 Speaker 1: right now. But there's not going to be a trial. 474 00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 1: No one thinks their world, there's not going to be charges, 475 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:48,640 Speaker 1: no one thinks their will. It's what do people think. 476 00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 1: It's all about what people think. Emily compon you everybody 477 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:54,480 Speaker 1: here in studio with us.

Every single line lead 482 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 1: up as we take calls, spots, and the opening up 483 00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 1: I know it was. It was lit up like a 484 00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 1: Christmas tree soon as I opened up those lines. So 485 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:16,680 Speaker 1: here we go, let's get into it. Dawn in Texas 486 00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:22,440 Speaker 1: on the I Heart Appay, Dawn, Hi, Can you hear me? Yes, ma'am? 487 00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:26,879 Speaker 1: What's on your mind? Um? I thought that you're proven, 488 00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:29,920 Speaker 1: You're innocent until proven guilty, and it seems like everyone 489 00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:34,280 Speaker 1: seems to think that Roy Moore is guilty. I have 490 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:40,320 Speaker 1: had experience, Um, bet a sight nurse.

I 509 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 1: really do think this is my personal opinion that you know, 510 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:55,200 Speaker 1: if the guy is guilty, that's fine, he needs to 511 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:58,120 Speaker 1: go to jail or resign or whatever he needs to do. 512 00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:04,560 Speaker 1: But why wait for forty years until you come clean?

And 518 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:26,479 Speaker 1: the other thing is, Um, if you watch when she 519 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:29,960 Speaker 1: was with uh, why I think alread of all things, 520 00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:34,600 Speaker 1: that's crazy anyway, But anyway, um, when she got on 521 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:38,480 Speaker 1: the press conference, he read out with she you know 522 00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:42,240 Speaker 1: she was he was accused of why do you have 523 00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:44,520 Speaker 1: to read something off of a piece of paper if 524 00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:48,959 Speaker 1: you can, you know, is it for memory, perfect, you know, 525 00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:53,040 Speaker 1: purposes or what.

You could be sued for defamation to 529 00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:06,719 Speaker 1: write out to write out a statement.

Maybe she was afraid or whatever, 539 00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:38,480 Speaker 1: but it's just funny now that she waited this long 540 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:42,560 Speaker 1: to do it, and you know, especially when he's fixing 541 00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 1: to uh go through.

I I really am just another one of 557 00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:38,680 Speaker 1: those people that are saying something smells. I mean, certainly 558 00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:42,080 Speaker 1: nobody wants to be the first person to go ahead 559 00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:47,440 Speaker 1: and say you've made an allegation of sexual impropriety or 560 00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:52,480 Speaker 1: whatever and to discredit them just right off the bat. 561 00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:57,160 Speaker 1: It does. It does smell of of a political owner. Here. 562 00:32:57,440 --> 00:32:59,520 Speaker 1: Did you hear the show, Chris where I said, because 563 00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:02,880 Speaker 1: I really remember this very very strongly, and actually a 564 00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:05,320 Speaker 1: couple of my family members I think would would would 565 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:07,240 Speaker 1: back me up on this. At asked that when I 566 00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 1: read the initial Rolling Stone piece about the UVA fraternity, 567 00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:14,000 Speaker 1: I was just like, NA, that doesn't that doesn't sound 568 00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:15,800 Speaker 1: that doesn't sound right to me. But I don't want 569 00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:18,440 Speaker 1: to go public with it because you don't want to 570 00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:22,000 Speaker 1: be the guy who says that you don't believe a horrific, 571 00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:25,600 Speaker 1: violent gang rape story and it's true right now, you're 572 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:27,560 Speaker 1: some kind of monster. But as we know, that was 573 00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:31,400 Speaker 1: a complete and utter fabrication. But the forces that you 574 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:34,000 Speaker 1: deal with, the forces are raid against you if you're 575 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:40,040 Speaker 1: wrong on something like that, are are considerable, Yes, sir, 576 00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:45,080 Speaker 1: we're listening to you. Okay, good Um. I I totally 577 00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 1: agree with you. Know. I'm glad that we're we're in 578 00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:51,520 Speaker 1: agreeance with that, and I really think that. But aren't 579 00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:53,640 Speaker 1: there aren't there a lot of accusers? Chris? I mean, look, 580 00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:55,400 Speaker 1: can we at least agree that there's there's a lot 581 00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:57,720 Speaker 1: of accusers here? So you know, if it were one 582 00:33:57,800 --> 00:34:01,480 Speaker 1: person with one claim, but but now, you know, think 583 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:04,080 Speaker 1: about it this way. If these women are being coerced 584 00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:06,720 Speaker 1: in any way to testify, all it takes is one 585 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:10,120 Speaker 1: of them to decide that you know, she doesn't she 586 00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:12,040 Speaker 1: doesn't want to do this anymore and say, you know what, 587 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:14,359 Speaker 1: they coerced and then the whole thing falls down, right, 588 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:18,279 Speaker 1: So it's not a Conspiracies are complicated, which is why 589 00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:23,720 Speaker 1: they're usually not true. Yes, And I think that allowing 590 00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:30,240 Speaker 1: do process to do its process, um is going to 591 00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:33,759 Speaker 1: bring to light whatever we need.

Saying that they 656 00:37:56,080 --> 00:38:01,279 Speaker 1: want verification, they want the up tunity to verify, and 657 00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:05,760 Speaker 1: I think obviously they would want to debunk this note 658 00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:13,319 Speaker 1: left in uh Nelson his accusers yearbook. There are other accusers. 659 00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:15,680 Speaker 1: I've been mentioned to you. There was, in fact, an 660 00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:18,839 Speaker 1: additional accuser now says she was groped by more a 661 00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:21,120 Speaker 1: long time ago. I think in the nineties in his 662 00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:24,399 Speaker 1: law office that brand new that was an Alabama dot 663 00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:27,640 Speaker 1: com um. And I also have for you here an 664 00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:34,840 Speaker 1: open letter from Roy Moore to uh Well, to Sean Hannity. 665 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:36,640 Speaker 1: But it's an open letter so we can all see it. 666 00:38:36,640 --> 00:38:38,840 Speaker 1: He's what he writes, Dear Sean, I am suffering the 667 00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:42,080 Speaker 1: same treatment other Republicans have had to endure. A month 668 00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:44,520 Speaker 1: prior to the general election for U. S. Senate Alabama, 669 00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:47,880 Speaker 1: I've been attacked by the Washington Post and other and 670 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:50,680 Speaker 1: other liberal media in a desperate attempt to smear my 671 00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:54,480 Speaker 1: character and defeat my campaign. Over the last forty years, 672 00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:57,560 Speaker 1: I've held several public offices. He goes through all the offices. 673 00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:00,800 Speaker 1: In addition to running five statewide and three county campaigns 674 00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:03,360 Speaker 1: for public office, I've been involved in two major controversies 675 00:39:03,360 --> 00:39:06,560 Speaker 1: that attracted national attention, one about the tech Commandments and 676 00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:10,920 Speaker 1: the other the sanctity of marriage. Uh The Alabama Judicial 677 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:15,680 Speaker 1: Inquiry Commission, Court of the Judiciary and Attorney General have investigated, scrutinized, examined, 678 00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:19,320 Speaker 1: and vetted me not to mention every opposing candidate against 679 00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:22,560 Speaker 1: whom I have run. I'm married for almost thirty three 680 00:39:22,600 --> 00:39:24,960 Speaker 1: years to my wife, Kayla. We have four children and 681 00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:28,680 Speaker 1: five granddaughters. We are in the process of investigating these 682 00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:33,280 Speaker 1: false allegations to determine their origin and motivation. For instance, 683 00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:37,120 Speaker 1: we have documented that the most recent accuser, Beverly Nelson, 684 00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:39,920 Speaker 1: was a party in a divorce action before me in 685 00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:47,279 Speaker 1: uh Etowah County Circuit Court. In no motion was made 686 00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:50,640 Speaker 1: for me to recuse. In her accusations, Nelson did not 687 00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:53,080 Speaker 1: mention that I was the judge assigned to her divorce 688 00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:57,000 Speaker 1: case in a matter that apparently caused her no distress 689 00:39:57,040 --> 00:39:59,160 Speaker 1: at a time that was eighteen years closer to the 690 00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:03,200 Speaker 1: alleged assaul Yet eighteen years later, while talking before the 691 00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:06,760 Speaker 1: cameras about the supposed assault, she seemingly could not contain 692 00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:10,160 Speaker 1: her emotions. My signature on the order of dismissal in 693 00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:12,799 Speaker 1: the divorce case was annotated with the letters d A, 694 00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:17,640 Speaker 1: representing the initials of my court assistant. Curiously, the supposed 695 00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:21,279 Speaker 1: yearbook inscription is also followed by the same initials d A, 696 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:24,279 Speaker 1: but at that time I was Deputy District Attorney, not 697 00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:27,600 Speaker 1: District Attorney. Those initials, as well as the date under 698 00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:29,960 Speaker 1: the signature block and the printed name of the restaurant, 699 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:33,040 Speaker 1: are written in a style inconsistent with the rest of 700 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:37,080 Speaker 1: the yearbook inscription. The sevens in Christmas nineteen seventy seven 701 00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:39,320 Speaker 1: are a noticeably different script than the sevens in the 702 00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:46,080 Speaker 1: date twelve seventy seven. I believe tampering has occurred. Are 703 00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:48,520 Speaker 1: we at a stage in American politics in which false 704 00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:52,719 Speaker 1: allegations can overcome a public record of forty years stampede 705 00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:56,400 Speaker 1: the media and politicians to condemn innocent man and potentially 706 00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:59,799 Speaker 1: impact the outcome of an election of national importance? When 707 00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:04,160 Speaker 1: illegations of events, uh, when allegations of events, false allegations 708 00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:07,680 Speaker 1: can overcome a public record. Whoops, sorry, I'm running. I'm 709 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:10,680 Speaker 1: actually I lost the last page here, but you get 710 00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:12,959 Speaker 1: the idea, and that was an end quote there except 711 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:16,719 Speaker 1: for my whoops. You understand this is openly he's saying 712 00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:20,960 Speaker 1: no way. He's saying it's all fake, attacking specifically the 713 00:41:21,040 --> 00:41:25,399 Speaker 1: allegation from Beverly Nelson and the yearbook inscription. But he's saying, 714 00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:31,200 Speaker 1: it's all it's all a lie. Ah, this is this 715 00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:33,640 Speaker 1: is quite a situation we find ourselves in. My friends. 716 00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:35,759 Speaker 1: All right, we got well every line lit. Let's take 717 00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:39,080 Speaker 1: some calls and we'll get into it. Sadie in Boston, 718 00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:45,799 Speaker 1: thank you for holding Hi. How you welcome back? Oh, 719 00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:49,960 Speaker 1: thank you, I'm good. Before I get to my point, 720 00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:54,680 Speaker 1: I give my undergraduate at the University of Virginia and Charlottesville, 721 00:41:54,719 --> 00:41:58,440 Speaker 1: I'll tell you that is a beautiful city in April, 722 00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:00,919 Speaker 1: when all those dogwoods and this they all use her out, 723 00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:06,440 Speaker 1: it is gorgeous. So your grandmother, she lives in a 724 00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:10,040 Speaker 1: lovely lovely grandmother and my uncle, yeah, yeah, I can 725 00:42:10,040 --> 00:42:12,319 Speaker 1: still she she unfortunately passed some years ago back and 726 00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:16,560 Speaker 1: still here, young buck buck just like that. Now we 727 00:42:16,640 --> 00:42:22,120 Speaker 1: don't do that. And anyway, our pro was interesting. I 728 00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:25,000 Speaker 1: would just want to take a distance, just a step back. 729 00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:32,279 Speaker 1: When the lady was talking about her incident that happened, Uh, 730 00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:35,600 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, when I saw Gloria, I thought, well, 731 00:42:35,680 --> 00:42:39,360 Speaker 1: my word, this just appears, she appears to be a 732 00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:43,839 Speaker 1: mediaHo and she sits there and every time something like 733 00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:47,239 Speaker 1: this comes up, I wondered who was picking up this 734 00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:52,520 Speaker 1: chap for her? Again, she is not cheap. She cost 735 00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:55,800 Speaker 1: a lot of bucks, and I don't think these women 736 00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:58,160 Speaker 1: have that money to be able to put you. Don't 737 00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:00,440 Speaker 1: think Gloria already for the headlines here? It would take 738 00:43:00,440 --> 00:43:02,000 Speaker 1: this pro bono. I mean, if we're going to drill 739 00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:04,000 Speaker 1: down into your theory, I mean that's I know plenty 740 00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 1: of lawyers that will do that on a contingency basis 741 00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:10,160 Speaker 1: or on a pro bono basis. Well, I think I 742 00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:12,279 Speaker 1: think it does bring to light just like when you 743 00:43:12,320 --> 00:43:15,439 Speaker 1: see Jesse Jackson running after the race card every time 744 00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:19,879 Speaker 1: you turn around. Uh yes, I think it is for visibility, 745 00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:25,600 Speaker 1: that's for sure, But the it also substantiates I feel 746 00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:31,319 Speaker 1: the motivation to uh, you know, it's self propelling and 747 00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:34,319 Speaker 1: this is just an opportunity. But she can get out 748 00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:39,680 Speaker 1: there and um bully the American people one more time 749 00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:43,560 Speaker 1: with her clients. So you're, for you a big, big 750 00:43:43,600 --> 00:43:46,000 Speaker 1: red flag here, Sadie. Is that Gloria. The fact that 751 00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:53,120 Speaker 1: Gloria already is involved period for you is an issue. Oh, absolutely, absolutely, yes, 752 00:43:54,440 --> 00:43:56,759 Speaker 1: that is definitely it. All right, Well, Sadie, thank you 753 00:43:56,840 --> 00:43:58,760 Speaker 1: so much for hold. We've got a Boston caller from Sadie. 754 00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:05,160 Speaker 1: Sadie Shields High. I think so much. Uh, let's take um, 755 00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:08,399 Speaker 1: let's take Darby in Texas on the I Heart app. 756 00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:11,719 Speaker 1: Hey Darby, Hey Buck, how you doing, man, it's been 757 00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:13,759 Speaker 1: a while. I'm glad to talk to you again. You too, 758 00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:17,960 Speaker 1: Thank you for calling. Absolutely probably gonna ego some previous colors, 759 00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:20,480 Speaker 1: But I think that I think you've made a good 760 00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:22,600 Speaker 1: point when you said that conspiracy is unlikely because it's 761 00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:24,799 Speaker 1: very hard for that many people to get together at 762 00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:26,919 Speaker 1: one time. It's very complicated, very difficult thing to do. 763 00:44:27,160 --> 00:44:29,560 Speaker 1: I think he's probably guilty. The only thing that worries 764 00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:32,160 Speaker 1: me is that we have reached a point where he 765 00:44:32,239 --> 00:44:34,799 Speaker 1: is guilty before proven innocent, and at this point it's 766 00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:37,799 Speaker 1: really sort of his word against someone else's, and I 767 00:44:37,800 --> 00:44:39,600 Speaker 1: feel like that's a really dangerous place for us to be, 768 00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:41,080 Speaker 1: especially in the light of all the things that are 769 00:44:41,080 --> 00:44:43,760 Speaker 1: going on now with Hollywood and all these media executives 770 00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:45,839 Speaker 1: and everything else. And I know you've been talking about 771 00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:47,640 Speaker 1: this quite a bit. That's just kind of a scary 772 00:44:47,640 --> 00:44:49,000 Speaker 1: place for us to be in America. I just want 773 00:44:49,000 --> 00:44:52,120 Speaker 1: to give your thoughts on that. Oh, absolutely, Darby. I mean, look, 774 00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:55,440 Speaker 1: let's just let's step aside from the really more specifics 775 00:44:55,520 --> 00:45:00,640 Speaker 1: for a second. And just given the current climate over 776 00:45:00,719 --> 00:45:02,640 Speaker 1: all these as I say that the purge of the 777 00:45:02,640 --> 00:45:05,680 Speaker 1: perverts that's going on in Hollywood, and and I think, 778 00:45:05,680 --> 00:45:07,520 Speaker 1: by the way, it's coming to Capitol Hill too. I 779 00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:10,080 Speaker 1: I it's not gonna be as bad as like the 780 00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:14,000 Speaker 1: Weinstein spacey stuff, but we're gonna see some women I think, 781 00:45:14,040 --> 00:45:16,680 Speaker 1: come forward and and I think they're gonna talk about 782 00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:19,840 Speaker 1: what's been going on with all these politicos in d 783 00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:23,200 Speaker 1: C for all. But anyway, um My my concern here 784 00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:26,040 Speaker 1: is that and look, they tried this with Trump, right, 785 00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:28,080 Speaker 1: that was what the whole NBC news tape and the 786 00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:30,799 Speaker 1: Billy Bush and all that stuff was about. Um my 787 00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:33,480 Speaker 1: concern is that they will now be now that they 788 00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:38,920 Speaker 1: have had very uh not just credible, but confirmed corroborated 789 00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:42,680 Speaker 1: allegations against a lot of hope, high profile people, that 790 00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:47,160 Speaker 1: now the left can pick somebody and if we're talking 791 00:45:47,160 --> 00:45:51,799 Speaker 1: about something that's either much lesser offense or just fabricated wholesale. 792 00:45:52,400 --> 00:45:56,640 Speaker 1: They can destroy someone before they have any ability to 793 00:45:56,960 --> 00:45:59,080 Speaker 1: mount any real defense, right. I mean, if you're a 794 00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:02,840 Speaker 1: media person, for example, and they get together, you know, 795 00:46:03,239 --> 00:46:06,680 Speaker 1: even just one accusation now sexual harassment, and certain outlets 796 00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:09,319 Speaker 1: pick that up, you might have all your sponsors drop 797 00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:11,719 Speaker 1: and you may be fired before you get a chance 798 00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:14,000 Speaker 1: to do anything about it. And so we should just 799 00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:17,800 Speaker 1: be aware that, you know, every case has to be 800 00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:20,640 Speaker 1: evaluated on the specifics and on its merits. It can't 801 00:46:20,640 --> 00:46:23,000 Speaker 1: be oh, this is a movement, you know, it can't 802 00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:25,440 Speaker 1: be Oh, this is just the cost of doing business. 803 00:46:25,520 --> 00:46:27,440 Speaker 1: Is that innocent people are going to get caught up 804 00:46:27,440 --> 00:46:30,760 Speaker 1: in this as well, because it's so important to reform 805 00:46:30,880 --> 00:46:34,040 Speaker 1: the system. Right. That's and we know democrats will go 806 00:46:34,080 --> 00:46:37,040 Speaker 1: there just a question to win. Oh they will. And 807 00:46:37,080 --> 00:46:38,440 Speaker 1: one of the things that I one of the one 808 00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:39,960 Speaker 1: of my favorite terms that I've heard you saying. I 809 00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:42,080 Speaker 1: use it all the time, is that the process of 810 00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:45,560 Speaker 1: the punishment with democrats, that's their point. They will. They 811 00:46:45,600 --> 00:46:48,200 Speaker 1: will destroy you as a sport and as long as 812 00:46:48,200 --> 00:46:50,520 Speaker 1: they get as long as their means justifies the ends, 813 00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:54,320 Speaker 1: everything's fine, doesn't matter true or not. So yeah, anyway, 814 00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:56,640 Speaker 1: I'll let you go. Yeah, man, she's high. Darby, thank you, 815 00:46:56,960 --> 00:46:58,600 Speaker 1: thank you so much for calling. And yeah, the if 816 00:46:58,600 --> 00:47:02,200 Speaker 1: the ends justify the means for Democrat, that's all they need.

But 833 00:48:03,440 --> 00:48:05,480 Speaker 1: I don't think a lot of the millennials or the 834 00:48:05,560 --> 00:48:10,160 Speaker 1: gen actors are First of all, you're high school annual 835 00:48:10,320 --> 00:48:14,440 Speaker 1: comes out at the end of the year.

The following year, like eight months later, 854 00:49:12,880 --> 00:49:17,799 Speaker 1: nobody's signing annuals in December. That's that's crazy. Everybody's off 855 00:49:17,800 --> 00:49:20,120 Speaker 1: to college or whatever, and you don't take it into 856 00:49:20,200 --> 00:49:22,520 Speaker 1: the restaurant to have it sitting on the counter and 857 00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:24,680 Speaker 1: wait for a you know, a good looking d a 858 00:49:24,800 --> 00:49:27,440 Speaker 1: to come in. You slide it over there, like, hey, honey, 859 00:49:27,920 --> 00:49:29,880 Speaker 1: do you mind signing my annual? I know you're a 860 00:49:29,920 --> 00:49:33,160 Speaker 1: big wig at the def depth courthouse. No, the only 861 00:49:33,200 --> 00:49:36,279 Speaker 1: adults that ever signed an annual are tea teachers. Yeah, 862 00:49:36,320 --> 00:49:39,799 Speaker 1: teachers and coaches. Okay, now I'm gonna jump over to 863 00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:43,680 Speaker 1: the other the no, No, same girl. She's in the 864 00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:46,960 Speaker 1: car they drove around the back to the restaurant. He's 865 00:49:47,120 --> 00:49:49,440 Speaker 1: you know, trying to get the second base or whatever 866 00:49:49,480 --> 00:49:52,399 Speaker 1: it is, and she wants to run away. Well, now 867 00:49:52,400 --> 00:49:54,919 Speaker 1: she's at the restaurant. She knows where she is, right, 868 00:49:55,960 --> 00:49:59,080 Speaker 1: but he reaches over and locks the door. Well, this 869 00:49:59,239 --> 00:50:01,880 Speaker 1: is nineteen seventy seven. Okay, I don't even know if 870 00:50:01,920 --> 00:50:03,680 Speaker 1: he's driving a new car. If he's driving a car 871 00:50:03,800 --> 00:50:05,880 Speaker 1: like I was driving, all you have to do is 872 00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:09,480 Speaker 1: reach over at your shoulder as the passenger and unlocked 873 00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:12,319 Speaker 1: the door. The big old knobs sitting right there. There 874 00:50:12,320 --> 00:50:16,840 Speaker 1: aren't any automatical lights, you know, lots there's no child's safety, lots, 875 00:50:17,360 --> 00:50:19,800 Speaker 1: none of that unless you know he's a serial rapist 876 00:50:19,880 --> 00:50:23,439 Speaker 1: and he's pulled the handles off. But the other thing 877 00:50:23,719 --> 00:50:26,960 Speaker 1: in this whole thing that doesn't make any sense. And 878 00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:29,799 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give you a little bit of a I 879 00:50:29,840 --> 00:50:31,640 Speaker 1: can't think of the word I want to use. But 880 00:50:32,239 --> 00:50:37,080 Speaker 1: my father was a Baptist minister, okay, and he married 881 00:50:37,120 --> 00:50:40,080 Speaker 1: my mother and I was the second child. But my 882 00:50:40,200 --> 00:50:43,440 Speaker 1: dad had a thing for the women, and before he 883 00:50:43,600 --> 00:50:48,239 Speaker 1: died he had married seven women. Okay, doesn't look good 884 00:50:48,239 --> 00:50:52,640 Speaker 1: on the Baptist resume, but it was obvious that he 885 00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:56,200 Speaker 1: had a character flaw. Nice guy could charm the socks 886 00:50:56,239 --> 00:51:01,359 Speaker 1: off of anybody, but he didn't had a flaw. Well, 887 00:51:01,400 --> 00:51:04,000 Speaker 1: we're expected to believe that this guy has running around 888 00:51:04,080 --> 00:51:08,239 Speaker 1: doing all this, you know, crazy, you know, groping and 889 00:51:08,400 --> 00:51:11,280 Speaker 1: sexual misconduct and all that, and then all of a sudden, 890 00:51:11,280 --> 00:51:14,239 Speaker 1: when he turned thirty three, which I think is the 891 00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:18,279 Speaker 1: date that he would be married, he's had a perfectly 892 00:51:18,360 --> 00:51:23,920 Speaker 1: happy marriage, faithful, you know, four daughters, five grandkids, never strayed. 893 00:51:24,960 --> 00:51:30,520 Speaker 1: That's that's an amazing character transformation for a man who's, 894 00:51:30,680 --> 00:51:32,840 Speaker 1: you know, got the eye for the young girls and 895 00:51:32,880 --> 00:51:38,239 Speaker 1: blah blah blah. It doesn't happen that way. If you 896 00:51:38,400 --> 00:51:43,440 Speaker 1: are a flawed character, you continue to be flagged for 897 00:51:43,600 --> 00:51:46,320 Speaker 1: most of your life, no matter how hard you try. 898 00:51:46,360 --> 00:51:48,239 Speaker 1: All right, Mark, I'm gonna I'm gonna leave it there, man. 899 00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:51,560 Speaker 1: I appreciate you calling in, and I think that the more, 900 00:51:52,120 --> 00:51:56,200 Speaker 1: the more squad should they should bring Mark on. Mark 901 00:51:56,320 --> 00:51:59,440 Speaker 1: just made a more articulate and forceful case in defense 902 00:51:59,480 --> 00:52:03,160 Speaker 1: of at least reasonable doubt here for Judge, more than 903 00:52:03,200 --> 00:52:06,360 Speaker 1: anything I've heard from any of the lawyers. So I 904 00:52:06,400 --> 00:52:08,960 Speaker 1: don't know if Mark is a lawyer, but he certainly 905 00:52:09,000 --> 00:52:12,759 Speaker 1: would be much much more adept at defending or at 906 00:52:12,840 --> 00:52:17,400 Speaker 1: least raising doubts in favor of Roy more than what 907 00:52:17,480 --> 00:52:19,320 Speaker 1: I've seen thus far from his legal team. Well, the 908 00:52:19,960 --> 00:52:24,640 Speaker 1: five PM press conference, guy was was pretty squared away. Alright, alright, everybody, 909 00:52:24,680 --> 00:52:27,160 Speaker 1: I think we can all we can all sort of 910 00:52:27,160 --> 00:52:30,800 Speaker 1: sit back now, maybe you know, crack the knuckles, stretch 911 00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:32,960 Speaker 1: out the back, whatever you gotta do. I think we're 912 00:52:32,960 --> 00:52:37,399 Speaker 1: gonna leave behind the Roy Moore discussion for today. It's 913 00:52:37,400 --> 00:52:41,359 Speaker 1: not going away, so we're probably gonna have more more 914 00:52:41,560 --> 00:52:45,400 Speaker 1: accusations tomorrow, more facts to throw into this I do 915 00:52:45,480 --> 00:52:47,960 Speaker 1: not think tyrone is is he stepping down? What do 916 00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:50,080 Speaker 1: you think? What's your I know, I I think no way, 917 00:52:50,080 --> 00:52:52,800 Speaker 1: no how at this point short short of an actual 918 00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:55,399 Speaker 1: criminal indictment, which no one's thinking there's anything like that 919 00:52:55,400 --> 00:52:57,680 Speaker 1: that could happen, because no matter what, right, no way. 920 00:52:58,320 --> 00:53:02,319 Speaker 1: And one quick thing, the accuser that was debunked, that 921 00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:04,719 Speaker 1: was attempted to be debunked, is now willing to testify 922 00:53:04,840 --> 00:53:09,600 Speaker 1: under oath. Oh okay, we'll see. We will see where 923 00:53:09,640 --> 00:53:11,520 Speaker 1: this goes. Everybody, We're gonna take quick break. We'll be 924 00:53:11,640 --> 00:53:14,480 Speaker 1: right back. Culturally speaking, I'm gonna say there's differences looked 925 00:53:14,520 --> 00:53:18,000 Speaker 1: up Ali's background there. Wow, that's awesome that you have 926 00:53:18,120 --> 00:53:21,440 Speaker 1: got a such a diverse background. It's really cool to 927 00:53:21,440 --> 00:53:25,760 Speaker 1: read through that. Please answer, what is Ali Velshi's background 928 00:53:26,080 --> 00:53:30,520 Speaker 1: have to do with dating under children fourteen year old girls? Sure, 929 00:53:30,560 --> 00:53:34,520 Speaker 1: in other in other countries, there's arrangement through parents for 930 00:53:34,600 --> 00:53:37,080 Speaker 1: what we would first from Canada into a marriage. So 931 00:53:37,280 --> 00:53:42,279 Speaker 1: Alie from Canniston, Yeah, that was I know, I said, 932 00:53:42,280 --> 00:53:44,400 Speaker 1: we live. This isn't really about Roy Moore. This is 933 00:53:44,440 --> 00:53:48,320 Speaker 1: just about what what not to do on TV or 934 00:53:48,680 --> 00:53:52,279 Speaker 1: in general. Um, it involves the Roy Moore case. But 935 00:53:52,360 --> 00:53:56,000 Speaker 1: that was the name is Trenton Garman, Is that right? Yeah? 936 00:53:56,200 --> 00:53:58,280 Speaker 1: It was the attorney who was one of the attorneys 937 00:53:58,280 --> 00:54:02,920 Speaker 1: for Roy Moore. And and I guess he wasn't I 938 00:54:02,920 --> 00:54:07,319 Speaker 1: guess he was trying to establish some degree of of 939 00:54:07,760 --> 00:54:11,120 Speaker 1: rapport or something with the hosts there. And so he's like, 940 00:54:11,160 --> 00:54:15,080 Speaker 1: you know, Ali knows because of Ali Velshi is of 941 00:54:15,400 --> 00:54:18,880 Speaker 1: South Asian descent but was born and raised in Canada. 942 00:54:19,320 --> 00:54:24,360 Speaker 1: He's a he is a Canadian Canadian A he is Canadian. 943 00:54:25,040 --> 00:54:30,560 Speaker 1: Uh So to look at the host and to say, well, 944 00:54:30,600 --> 00:54:33,160 Speaker 1: you know you know about that because of different cultures 945 00:54:34,280 --> 00:54:37,759 Speaker 1: not is what we would say that That was not 946 00:54:37,800 --> 00:54:41,200 Speaker 1: a smooth move from the attorney. For more, this got 947 00:54:41,680 --> 00:54:43,040 Speaker 1: I just wanted you all to be aware of it. 948 00:54:43,080 --> 00:54:47,120 Speaker 1: This got a lot of a lot of play in 949 00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:50,440 Speaker 1: the media today. Um and you can imagine they were 950 00:54:50,440 --> 00:54:53,560 Speaker 1: all jumping on this because an underlying narrative in this 951 00:54:53,600 --> 00:54:58,279 Speaker 1: whole discussion is that the media really doesn't like Alabama 952 00:54:59,320 --> 00:55:01,840 Speaker 1: and that that's an underlying point here with all this, 953 00:55:01,960 --> 00:55:05,920 Speaker 1: that that the media looks down at the South, particularly 954 00:55:05,960 --> 00:55:10,120 Speaker 1: that the deep South threat and the deep red states 955 00:55:10,200 --> 00:55:14,440 Speaker 1: in the South that vote for Republicans, and so anything 956 00:55:14,480 --> 00:55:19,400 Speaker 1: that they can do that focuses in on those stereotypes, 957 00:55:19,480 --> 00:55:24,080 Speaker 1: anything that this was on MSNBC. So this they could 958 00:55:24,160 --> 00:55:26,200 Speaker 1: not have been happier than this. But anything they can 959 00:55:26,200 --> 00:55:30,440 Speaker 1: do to show a bunch of uh, you know, red 960 00:55:30,520 --> 00:55:35,160 Speaker 1: state Bible thumping, you know, hillbilly types on TV, they'll 961 00:55:35,239 --> 00:55:40,000 Speaker 1: jump at that opportunity to mock people and to deride them. 962 00:55:40,200 --> 00:55:43,640 Speaker 1: And and with this guy though, I gotta say, they 963 00:55:43,640 --> 00:55:46,759 Speaker 1: weren't even he decided to do this on his own. 964 00:55:46,800 --> 00:55:48,600 Speaker 1: This was on him, right, This is on So like, 965 00:55:48,800 --> 00:55:51,640 Speaker 1: don't given that they're trying to do that to begin with, 966 00:55:52,040 --> 00:55:54,279 Speaker 1: you shouldn't this guy, Trent Garman shouldn't be making their 967 00:55:54,320 --> 00:55:57,080 Speaker 1: job any easier of oh, you know, and look at 968 00:55:57,080 --> 00:56:00,640 Speaker 1: this guy, this bigoted guy from Alabama, because you know, 969 00:56:00,920 --> 00:56:06,240 Speaker 1: you get a lot of a lot of condescension, stereotyping, 970 00:56:06,320 --> 00:56:12,400 Speaker 1: and general derision from the media about places like Alabama 971 00:56:12,440 --> 00:56:14,360 Speaker 1: in general. So anyway, it is they just need to 972 00:56:14,400 --> 00:56:17,839 Speaker 1: be any lawyers, anybody to attached the Roy Moore needs 973 00:56:17,840 --> 00:56:20,000 Speaker 1: to be disciplined in the messaging and know what the 974 00:56:20,000 --> 00:56:23,640 Speaker 1: heck they're doing. Um fusion GPS, getting a lot of uh, 975 00:56:24,040 --> 00:56:25,880 Speaker 1: get a lot of attention today as well with the 976 00:56:25,960 --> 00:56:29,080 Speaker 1: latest on that. Yeah, those hearings earlier in the week. 977 00:56:29,120 --> 00:56:33,640 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what's going on there. And uh also, oh, 978 00:56:33,680 --> 00:56:35,880 Speaker 1: by the way, those are basketball players m c l A. 979 00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:40,319 Speaker 1: They came back and they actually had some words to 980 00:56:40,360 --> 00:56:47,759 Speaker 1: say for or President Trump. So yeah, I would also 981 00:56:47,840 --> 00:56:51,320 Speaker 1: like to thank presidents in the United States government for 982 00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:54,400 Speaker 1: the help that they provided as little. So there's some 983 00:56:54,400 --> 00:56:56,600 Speaker 1: good news there. We'll be back with the GPS story. 984 00:56:56,680 --> 00:57:02,239 Speaker 1: Stay with me, the dacier c A my friends more 985 00:57:02,360 --> 00:57:06,080 Speaker 1: on this. So Fusion GPS just quick recap here. Fusion 986 00:57:06,120 --> 00:57:11,279 Speaker 1: GPS was hired by the d n C during the 987 00:57:11,360 --> 00:57:18,640 Speaker 1: Hillary campaign for the presidency. Using GPS contracted Christopher Steele 988 00:57:18,920 --> 00:57:22,560 Speaker 1: to go dig up dirt on Donald Trump in Russia 989 00:57:22,840 --> 00:57:28,120 Speaker 1: and all along this. As this is happening, there are 990 00:57:29,440 --> 00:57:33,960 Speaker 1: investing there. There are communications that are going on between 991 00:57:34,800 --> 00:57:38,720 Speaker 1: the press and Fusion GPS, we find out, and also 992 00:57:39,600 --> 00:57:43,200 Speaker 1: the FBI was looking into this. The FBI may have 993 00:57:43,280 --> 00:57:46,240 Speaker 1: even paid for some of the Darcy expenses. There is 994 00:57:46,280 --> 00:57:49,920 Speaker 1: still a lot here that we do not know that 995 00:57:50,000 --> 00:57:55,800 Speaker 1: we should know. And Katherine Herrid who's a a formidable 996 00:57:55,920 --> 00:58:01,040 Speaker 1: and an excellent reporter over or. Fox News has a 997 00:58:01,080 --> 00:58:05,680 Speaker 1: piece up that says that the Fusion GPS Fusion GPS 998 00:58:05,720 --> 00:58:09,360 Speaker 1: guy Glenn Simpson, the founder of it, was talking to 999 00:58:09,400 --> 00:58:14,800 Speaker 1: the media about his I was talking to media about 1000 00:58:14,840 --> 00:58:18,400 Speaker 1: the findings of the Russia dossier during you know, this 1001 00:58:18,480 --> 00:58:20,560 Speaker 1: was the summer before the election. This is in that 1002 00:58:20,600 --> 00:58:23,840 Speaker 1: period of time. Now, there's something that I do want 1003 00:58:23,840 --> 00:58:25,640 Speaker 1: to share with all of you, and it's it's a 1004 00:58:25,680 --> 00:58:28,800 Speaker 1: place where I think I can bring a little particular 1005 00:58:28,840 --> 00:58:31,280 Speaker 1: insight in this discussion that you're not going to hear 1006 00:58:31,280 --> 00:58:35,440 Speaker 1: from other radio hosts, and that is that as somebody 1007 00:58:35,440 --> 00:58:40,840 Speaker 1: who was a CIA analyst, I can tell you that 1008 00:58:41,320 --> 00:58:44,080 Speaker 1: we are very much in what is now always called 1009 00:58:44,120 --> 00:58:47,280 Speaker 1: the intelligence community. I feel like we didn't call it 1010 00:58:47,280 --> 00:58:50,280 Speaker 1: the i C that much back in the day. Technically true, 1011 00:58:50,960 --> 00:58:54,160 Speaker 1: but we were very attuned to what was going on 1012 00:58:54,920 --> 00:58:57,480 Speaker 1: in the media, very aware of it. You know, when 1013 00:58:57,640 --> 00:59:01,040 Speaker 1: you go through the lunch room, that cafeteria, or the 1014 00:59:01,040 --> 00:59:05,680 Speaker 1: mess hall or whatever in any number of government buildings, 1015 00:59:06,520 --> 00:59:08,320 Speaker 1: you know you're gonna see some of You're gonna boo, 1016 00:59:08,320 --> 00:59:10,520 Speaker 1: You're gonna see CNN. You may see Fox, You're definite 1017 00:59:10,520 --> 00:59:14,960 Speaker 1: gonna see CNN. Up there, and we all read the newspaper. 1018 00:59:15,120 --> 00:59:16,720 Speaker 1: You know, when I was in the CIA, I would 1019 00:59:16,720 --> 00:59:18,240 Speaker 1: you know I was reading what's going on in the world. 1020 00:59:18,360 --> 00:59:22,520 Speaker 1: Open source information, right, open source intelligence just a fancy 1021 00:59:22,520 --> 00:59:26,960 Speaker 1: way of saying stuff that's out there already, the news 1022 00:59:26,960 --> 00:59:29,040 Speaker 1: reports that anybody can read. There's often a lot of 1023 00:59:29,080 --> 00:59:35,240 Speaker 1: very important information. In fact, much of uh, much of 1024 00:59:35,280 --> 00:59:40,200 Speaker 1: the most important information you will gather about big strategic, 1025 00:59:41,280 --> 00:59:46,520 Speaker 1: major topics you get from what's open source right, understanding 1026 00:59:46,560 --> 00:59:49,640 Speaker 1: the history of a country or a group or in 1027 00:59:49,760 --> 00:59:52,960 Speaker 1: an issue. It's really only when you're when you're drilling 1028 00:59:53,040 --> 00:59:56,800 Speaker 1: down most of the time that the classified stuff is 1029 00:59:56,840 --> 00:59:59,920 Speaker 1: actually really helpful and can be very very useful, you know, 1030 01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:05,960 Speaker 1: the super secret stuff that the intelligence agencies have access to. 1031 01:00:06,600 --> 01:00:09,840 Speaker 1: You know, it's it's more for specificity, you know, to 1032 01:00:09,840 --> 01:00:13,480 Speaker 1: to know whether or not there's going to be a 1033 01:00:14,960 --> 01:00:16,280 Speaker 1: uh you know, whether or not there's gonna be a 1034 01:00:16,320 --> 01:00:19,400 Speaker 1: famine in Yemen. You know, if you pay attention to 1035 01:00:19,440 --> 01:00:22,320 Speaker 1: the open source, you'll have a pretty good sense, right, 1036 01:00:22,360 --> 01:00:23,720 Speaker 1: I mean, you'll if you know the players, you know 1037 01:00:23,760 --> 01:00:25,680 Speaker 1: what's going on there, and you know there's a blockade 1038 01:00:25,680 --> 01:00:28,400 Speaker 1: in place. I mean, you can get really far in 1039 01:00:28,520 --> 01:00:31,000 Speaker 1: terms of your information analysis. But I'm telling you this 1040 01:00:31,040 --> 01:00:35,200 Speaker 1: with regard to the Fusion GPS situation because it is 1041 01:00:35,280 --> 01:00:39,320 Speaker 1: not a leap to me at all to think that 1042 01:00:39,400 --> 01:00:42,680 Speaker 1: because there is also especially when you're talking about you know, 1043 01:00:42,800 --> 01:00:46,680 Speaker 1: FBI and these places have they have public affairs offices, 1044 01:00:46,720 --> 01:00:51,600 Speaker 1: they have public affairs officers, right, There's there's definitely connectivity 1045 01:00:52,040 --> 01:00:57,840 Speaker 1: between some parts of the national security apparatus, intelligence community, 1046 01:00:57,920 --> 01:01:02,720 Speaker 1: law enforcement, and members of the media such that if 1047 01:01:02,760 --> 01:01:06,080 Speaker 1: the narrative of this, you know, the summer going in 1048 01:01:06,120 --> 01:01:12,520 Speaker 1: to the presidential election, was solidified by Glenn Simpson, you know, 1049 01:01:12,520 --> 01:01:14,360 Speaker 1: I mean I mean solidified. I mean if they had 1050 01:01:14,400 --> 01:01:17,800 Speaker 1: come up with this storyline and they were pretty good, 1051 01:01:17,960 --> 01:01:20,640 Speaker 1: had a pretty good sales pitch for it, and it 1052 01:01:20,760 --> 01:01:23,520 Speaker 1: was that there was this Russia all well, that there 1053 01:01:23,600 --> 01:01:26,120 Speaker 1: was all this terrible stuff about Trump that he's doing 1054 01:01:26,120 --> 01:01:28,040 Speaker 1: in Russia and then he was working with the Russians 1055 01:01:28,080 --> 01:01:33,440 Speaker 1: and everything else, and then that was influencing not just 1056 01:01:33,520 --> 01:01:36,480 Speaker 1: the news media as approach to the entire campaign, but 1057 01:01:36,600 --> 01:01:42,440 Speaker 1: also may have been the basis for a counterintelligence investigation. 1058 01:01:44,120 --> 01:01:46,720 Speaker 1: That that is all that that all makes perfect sense 1059 01:01:46,760 --> 01:01:51,880 Speaker 1: to me because the reality is that government employees. I 1060 01:01:51,920 --> 01:01:53,720 Speaker 1: don't care who they are, and I don't care what 1061 01:01:53,800 --> 01:01:56,080 Speaker 1: kind of work they're doing. GOVERNM employees, especially when you're 1062 01:01:56,080 --> 01:01:58,840 Speaker 1: talking about the high level, the high level bureaucrats right 1063 01:01:58,880 --> 01:02:05,800 Speaker 1: the executive floor, executive sweet people, they care more about oftentimes, 1064 01:02:05,880 --> 01:02:08,200 Speaker 1: and this is maybe the dirty little secret. They care 1065 01:02:08,280 --> 01:02:10,560 Speaker 1: more about what is on the front page of the 1066 01:02:10,560 --> 01:02:12,520 Speaker 1: Wall Street Journal or what's popping up on the screen 1067 01:02:12,560 --> 01:02:16,120 Speaker 1: and CNN than they do about any you know, internal 1068 01:02:16,920 --> 01:02:21,360 Speaker 1: analysis of the situation. Because ultimately, if you work in 1069 01:02:21,360 --> 01:02:24,600 Speaker 1: the government, in the executive branch, you work for the president. 1070 01:02:25,400 --> 01:02:27,160 Speaker 1: And what do you think the president cares more about, 1071 01:02:27,240 --> 01:02:30,760 Speaker 1: or what do you think the next president would care 1072 01:02:30,840 --> 01:02:33,320 Speaker 1: more about, right the public perception of an issue as 1073 01:02:33,360 --> 01:02:38,240 Speaker 1: shown by the media, or you know what's maybe unsourced 1074 01:02:38,240 --> 01:02:40,640 Speaker 1: on corroborated information that's kept behind closed doors. I mean, 1075 01:02:41,160 --> 01:02:42,840 Speaker 1: you have to think of it in these terms. So 1076 01:02:43,000 --> 01:02:44,800 Speaker 1: the more we find out about this, and this is 1077 01:02:44,800 --> 01:02:49,640 Speaker 1: what Katherine Harritge is reporting on UM that Fusion GPS 1078 01:02:50,560 --> 01:02:54,280 Speaker 1: Jim Glenn Simpson was talking to the press about this 1079 01:02:55,240 --> 01:02:58,880 Speaker 1: was feeding them that storyline. They leaped from the press 1080 01:02:58,960 --> 01:03:01,080 Speaker 1: knowing this to the govern been knowing and acting on 1081 01:03:01,120 --> 01:03:04,400 Speaker 1: it is very small, you know, I mean there have 1082 01:03:04,440 --> 01:03:06,800 Speaker 1: been plenty of there are plenty of cases where the 1083 01:03:06,840 --> 01:03:10,000 Speaker 1: media is in fact first on an issue and then 1084 01:03:10,120 --> 01:03:14,640 Speaker 1: comes the federal investigation or you know, then comes the 1085 01:03:14,640 --> 01:03:16,880 Speaker 1: the government's handed it. You know, we we should never 1086 01:03:16,920 --> 01:03:20,280 Speaker 1: think that the government is always at the forefront. That's 1087 01:03:20,320 --> 01:03:24,920 Speaker 1: not the case. And what you have then is the possibility, 1088 01:03:24,960 --> 01:03:29,840 Speaker 1: the very real possibility, that the entire Russia collusion investigation 1089 01:03:30,960 --> 01:03:37,520 Speaker 1: has existed and was was created as an outgrowth of 1090 01:03:37,560 --> 01:03:45,280 Speaker 1: a Hillary election oppo research effort. The whole thing, and 1091 01:03:46,040 --> 01:03:49,640 Speaker 1: that you want to talk about having a it really 1092 01:03:50,160 --> 01:03:55,320 Speaker 1: profound impact on our sense of our own political systems 1093 01:03:55,320 --> 01:03:59,640 Speaker 1: and their durability everything else. Imagine that it's almost it's 1094 01:03:59,680 --> 01:04:02,040 Speaker 1: almost too brilliant, though, right, because it would mean that 1095 01:04:02,120 --> 01:04:06,400 Speaker 1: Hillary would have hijacked the intelligence, She would have run 1096 01:04:06,440 --> 01:04:09,840 Speaker 1: an information operation that made its way through the entirety 1097 01:04:09,840 --> 01:04:13,840 Speaker 1: of the media as well as into the corridors of 1098 01:04:13,880 --> 01:04:18,320 Speaker 1: government power, and they acted on it too. Now you 1099 01:04:18,360 --> 01:04:20,320 Speaker 1: have to start thinking, how could that happen? Well, if 1100 01:04:20,360 --> 01:04:22,880 Speaker 1: the government was if those government we know the media 1101 01:04:22,920 --> 01:04:25,680 Speaker 1: is in Hillary's pockets, so they were totally down. And 1102 01:04:25,720 --> 01:04:28,320 Speaker 1: then you start thinking about deep state elements or individuals 1103 01:04:28,320 --> 01:04:31,320 Speaker 1: who view themselves as committed leftists who are willing to 1104 01:04:32,400 --> 01:04:34,840 Speaker 1: if not if they were not fooled by the dossier, 1105 01:04:35,000 --> 01:04:37,520 Speaker 1: meaning if they if they weren't buying into it right away, 1106 01:04:37,560 --> 01:04:40,840 Speaker 1: they figured, well, this is the excuse we need the dossier, 1107 01:04:40,960 --> 01:04:44,320 Speaker 1: maybe the excuse for the counterintelligence activities. The dossier, maybe 1108 01:04:44,400 --> 01:04:48,400 Speaker 1: the excuse for spying on Americans. And that's all they need, 1109 01:04:48,440 --> 01:04:50,200 Speaker 1: is an excuse, because then no one goes to prison, 1110 01:04:50,360 --> 01:04:52,960 Speaker 1: even if it comes out later, and I think it 1111 01:04:53,040 --> 01:04:58,160 Speaker 1: will by the way that the political targeting was obvious. 1112 01:04:58,560 --> 01:05:00,840 Speaker 1: As long as there is a pre text for it, 1113 01:05:00,960 --> 01:05:03,959 Speaker 1: you're not gonna get any criminal prosecutions. So and I'll 1114 01:05:03,960 --> 01:05:05,520 Speaker 1: just tell that to you straight. A lot of people are, oh, 1115 01:05:06,000 --> 01:05:08,320 Speaker 1: former Obama people, you know they're gonna get they're gonna 1116 01:05:08,320 --> 01:05:11,800 Speaker 1: get sent away. No, it's not gonna happen because they're 1117 01:05:11,840 --> 01:05:15,360 Speaker 1: not dumb. They're not that dumb. At least they know 1118 01:05:15,400 --> 01:05:17,440 Speaker 1: that they just get a pretext for it, and then 1119 01:05:17,480 --> 01:05:19,560 Speaker 1: you can get away with it. And there were plenty 1120 01:05:19,600 --> 01:05:24,040 Speaker 1: of ways, especially when you're talking about discretion of surveillance activities, 1121 01:05:24,040 --> 01:05:26,040 Speaker 1: plenty of ways that you can do it where bad 1122 01:05:26,120 --> 01:05:28,520 Speaker 1: judgment doesn't get you sent to prison as long as 1123 01:05:28,720 --> 01:05:32,160 Speaker 1: you operate within the letter, if not the spirit of 1124 01:05:32,240 --> 01:05:34,680 Speaker 1: the law when it comes to stuff. So you know, 1125 01:05:34,680 --> 01:05:37,240 Speaker 1: we gotta keep an eye on the Fusion GPS situation. 1126 01:05:37,560 --> 01:05:40,920 Speaker 1: It is there's still a lot of unanswered questions there 1127 01:05:41,040 --> 01:05:45,520 Speaker 1: and I want to know more. And a judge has now. 1128 01:05:47,160 --> 01:05:50,800 Speaker 1: Judges now said that the secrecy that they're seeking is 1129 01:05:50,840 --> 01:05:54,000 Speaker 1: not is not gonna fly. Um, just one a quick 1130 01:05:54,040 --> 01:05:57,720 Speaker 1: thing here from this piece, Fox News reported that Simpson 1131 01:05:57,800 --> 01:06:02,040 Speaker 1: met with Russia pardon me, rush lawyer or if you're 1132 01:06:02,080 --> 01:06:06,000 Speaker 1: Russian lawyer, you could be a Rusher Russian lawyer Natalia 1133 01:06:06,160 --> 01:06:10,640 Speaker 1: vesil Nitskaya before and after the June Trump Tower meeting 1134 01:06:10,640 --> 01:06:13,520 Speaker 1: with Donald Trump Jr. And others. Foxtons reported that during 1135 01:06:13,560 --> 01:06:16,840 Speaker 1: that period, Bank record show Fusion GPS was paid by 1136 01:06:16,840 --> 01:06:19,920 Speaker 1: a law firm for work on behalf of a Kremlin 1137 01:06:19,920 --> 01:06:23,400 Speaker 1: linked oligarch, while also paying Steel to dig up dirt 1138 01:06:23,440 --> 01:06:27,920 Speaker 1: on Trump. Okay end quote. Um, are we really supposed 1139 01:06:27,920 --> 01:06:33,840 Speaker 1: to think that it's an accident? Think about the coincidence theorist, 1140 01:06:33,920 --> 01:06:36,040 Speaker 1: You would have to be here, not a conspiracy theorist, 1141 01:06:36,040 --> 01:06:39,880 Speaker 1: A coincidence theorist think about what a coincidence thereis. You 1142 01:06:39,880 --> 01:06:43,240 Speaker 1: would have to be to think that it was coincidental 1143 01:06:44,400 --> 01:06:51,400 Speaker 1: that Natalia vezl Nitskaya, this Russian lawyer, just happened to 1144 01:06:52,120 --> 01:06:58,280 Speaker 1: meet with Glenn Simpson, a Fusion GPS, the dossier guy, 1145 01:06:58,440 --> 01:07:01,120 Speaker 1: before and after the meeting at Trump Tower. That's it's 1146 01:07:01,120 --> 01:07:05,000 Speaker 1: a big world, Tying Amy, It's a big world, right, 1147 01:07:05,120 --> 01:07:09,080 Speaker 1: seven billion people or so? Now, you know what? What? What? 1148 01:07:09,080 --> 01:07:11,400 Speaker 1: What are the chances that that just happened? I think 1149 01:07:11,400 --> 01:07:14,680 Speaker 1: the chances are slim, and I don't know what's going 1150 01:07:14,760 --> 01:07:18,320 Speaker 1: on there, but something's weird there. This woman, vesselment Sky 1151 01:07:18,360 --> 01:07:21,480 Speaker 1: is not you know, this isn't Taylor Swift. People are 1152 01:07:21,560 --> 01:07:24,200 Speaker 1: lining up for miles and miles to meet her. So 1153 01:07:24,880 --> 01:07:27,400 Speaker 1: there's something going on and I'll try to figure out 1154 01:07:27,400 --> 01:07:28,760 Speaker 1: what it is, and that's what that'll be part of 1155 01:07:28,760 --> 01:07:32,800 Speaker 1: our mission here on this show. Does anyone really think 1156 01:07:32,840 --> 01:07:36,280 Speaker 1: Trump is gonna get impeached? Apparently some Democrats do. Let's 1157 01:07:36,280 --> 01:07:38,040 Speaker 1: talk about it. We come back, stay with me all 1158 01:07:38,160 --> 01:07:42,400 Speaker 1: right daily in Mississippi on w j M. I wants 1159 01:07:42,400 --> 01:07:47,600 Speaker 1: to talk about Fusion GPS and such. What's up, David book, 1160 01:07:47,640 --> 01:07:53,480 Speaker 1: He loves your pace. Earlier about how the media the 1161 01:07:53,520 --> 01:07:58,200 Speaker 1: liberals hate the South. I live in Mississippi, but I 1162 01:07:58,240 --> 01:08:01,000 Speaker 1: also grew up in Alabama, and get your spot on 1163 01:08:01,120 --> 01:08:04,640 Speaker 1: and and and you know, for all your other listeners 1164 01:08:04,680 --> 01:08:10,400 Speaker 1: across the country, liberal media in the South as a joke. Um, 1165 01:08:09,880 --> 01:08:14,040 Speaker 1: I live just outside of Jackson, and you know it, 1166 01:08:14,040 --> 01:08:17,760 Speaker 1: it really is. Uh it's the local cartoon network. And 1167 01:08:17,840 --> 01:08:21,200 Speaker 1: you can see the bias even in the local network stuff. 1168 01:08:21,840 --> 01:08:26,280 Speaker 1: But anyway, so I've got the perfect solution to our 1169 01:08:26,360 --> 01:08:30,799 Speaker 1: problem with fusion, GPS and Robert Mueller and the Clinton 1170 01:08:30,920 --> 01:08:35,120 Speaker 1: count the Clinton Clawn campaign. So this is what we 1171 01:08:35,360 --> 01:08:38,479 Speaker 1: what we need to do. We don't need to fire Mueller. Okay, 1172 01:08:39,000 --> 01:08:40,720 Speaker 1: what we need to do is we need to and 1173 01:08:40,760 --> 01:08:43,320 Speaker 1: I know I don't like the idea of the Special Council, 1174 01:08:43,439 --> 01:08:46,000 Speaker 1: but I think you're gonna love this book. Let's up 1175 01:08:46,080 --> 01:08:50,479 Speaker 1: point a second special Council to look into the corrupt 1176 01:08:50,600 --> 01:08:56,599 Speaker 1: Clinton criminal organization. And uh, let's go fire Muller. Let's 1177 01:08:56,640 --> 01:09:00,200 Speaker 1: put Mueller over the Clinton investigation so that he has 1178 01:09:00,240 --> 01:09:02,840 Speaker 1: to bite the hand that's feeding him. Right now, do 1179 01:09:02,880 --> 01:09:04,600 Speaker 1: you want a moving so you'd want to have a 1180 01:09:04,600 --> 01:09:07,760 Speaker 1: set because they're already talking about uranium one and the 1181 01:09:07,760 --> 01:09:10,840 Speaker 1: Clinton Foundation looking to that. But you're so you're saying, 1182 01:09:10,880 --> 01:09:13,519 Speaker 1: make Mueller run that. But then won't Mueller just run 1183 01:09:13,600 --> 01:09:15,840 Speaker 1: cover for them if if what you're saying is true, 1184 01:09:15,880 --> 01:09:18,400 Speaker 1: which is that he's you know, the hand that feeds 1185 01:09:18,439 --> 01:09:22,280 Speaker 1: him as the Clinton's right, right, But like like you 1186 01:09:22,320 --> 01:09:27,519 Speaker 1: always say, the process is the punishment, right, Well, I 1187 01:09:27,560 --> 01:09:29,720 Speaker 1: feel like you could probably get somebody who's gonna make 1188 01:09:29,720 --> 01:09:31,760 Speaker 1: the process more of a punishment if you don't make 1189 01:09:31,800 --> 01:09:35,720 Speaker 1: it Mueller for Hillary. Well, here here's what so and so, 1190 01:09:35,840 --> 01:09:40,439 Speaker 1: the other investigation, the one Trump Russian the joke, like 1191 01:09:40,439 --> 01:09:42,960 Speaker 1: like a point, somebody like Roberto Gonzalez, you know, from 1192 01:09:42,960 --> 01:09:45,439 Speaker 1: the bush of a induistration. You know. So I'm not 1193 01:09:45,479 --> 01:09:48,360 Speaker 1: saying he's fremely, but he's honest, he's legitimate. And so 1194 01:09:48,479 --> 01:09:50,120 Speaker 1: Mueller's these are gonna do one of the two things. 1195 01:09:50,120 --> 01:09:53,320 Speaker 1: He's easily gonna do nothing, which is gonna destroy his credibility. 1196 01:09:53,760 --> 01:09:57,400 Speaker 1: And then and then he's gonna actually investigate the Clintons, 1197 01:09:57,439 --> 01:10:01,559 Speaker 1: which in that case he's going to you indict her 1198 01:10:01,760 --> 01:10:07,120 Speaker 1: or wind up dead. Okay, David, thank you very much 1199 01:10:07,160 --> 01:10:12,240 Speaker 1: for thank you very much for calling it from Mississippi. Um, 1200 01:10:12,280 --> 01:10:14,000 Speaker 1: I think this is I think that was that like 1201 01:10:14,000 --> 01:10:15,840 Speaker 1: a kind of Vince Foster reference you made at the 1202 01:10:15,920 --> 01:10:18,600 Speaker 1: end there Where was I on this? Oh? Yes, I 1203 01:10:18,600 --> 01:10:21,960 Speaker 1: was gonna talk to you about impeachment, um and the 1204 01:10:22,080 --> 01:10:28,599 Speaker 1: articles of impeachment today that we're introduced about Trump. Here 1205 01:10:28,600 --> 01:10:34,960 Speaker 1: you go, Representative Cohen impeachment talking about it. The first 1206 01:10:35,040 --> 01:10:39,000 Speaker 1: substruction of justice, which deals with Mr Comby's firing. The 1207 01:10:39,080 --> 01:10:42,679 Speaker 1: second is a violation of the Constitution's Foreign emolument clause, 1208 01:10:43,160 --> 01:10:45,840 Speaker 1: which deals with moneys he's taken from foreign powers without 1209 01:10:45,840 --> 01:10:48,720 Speaker 1: the consent of Congress. The third is a violation of 1210 01:10:48,800 --> 01:10:52,120 Speaker 1: the domestic emoluments clause, was deals with moneys he's made 1211 01:10:52,120 --> 01:10:55,200 Speaker 1: from the United States, uh and as personal businesses beyond 1212 01:10:55,240 --> 01:10:58,560 Speaker 1: that of his salary, which is also forbidden by our constitution. 1213 01:10:59,479 --> 01:11:03,040 Speaker 1: The fourth underfinding our federal judiciary. In the fifth is 1214 01:11:03,120 --> 01:11:07,280 Speaker 1: undermining freedom of the press. These are progressive actions he's 1215 01:11:07,280 --> 01:11:10,840 Speaker 1: taken over a period of time against the press and 1216 01:11:10,920 --> 01:11:18,120 Speaker 1: against the judiciary. Okay, okay, Oh, And Maxine Waters says 1217 01:11:18,160 --> 01:11:19,800 Speaker 1: that we should impeach him to just in case you 1218 01:11:19,840 --> 01:11:26,519 Speaker 1: were wondering, I continued to say, m peage him M 1219 01:11:26,560 --> 01:11:33,880 Speaker 1: page forty five, M page forty five. I hope that 1220 01:11:33,920 --> 01:11:38,840 Speaker 1: they keep this up. This is only going to in 1221 01:11:38,920 --> 01:11:45,639 Speaker 1: my opinion, this is only going to uh rally Trump's 1222 01:11:45,680 --> 01:11:49,360 Speaker 1: based to his side, and it just shows how how 1223 01:11:49,560 --> 01:11:54,040 Speaker 1: feckless so many members of Congress really are impeach Trump 1224 01:11:54,080 --> 01:11:56,880 Speaker 1: for for his assaults on the press, and we're really 1225 01:11:56,880 --> 01:11:59,880 Speaker 1: gonna do That's even in there. You gotta gonna remove 1226 01:11:59,920 --> 01:12:01,719 Speaker 1: the president because you don't like what he says about 1227 01:12:01,760 --> 01:12:05,400 Speaker 1: the media. I mean, that's it's it's laughable, or it 1228 01:12:05,400 --> 01:12:10,360 Speaker 1: would be laughable if it weren't over such high stakes 1229 01:12:10,479 --> 01:12:13,320 Speaker 1: and so serious that sense. But the impeach Trump movement 1230 01:12:14,439 --> 01:12:17,920 Speaker 1: is h something that you're gonna It's gonna be going 1231 01:12:18,000 --> 01:12:21,559 Speaker 1: on for a while. They will not stop. Um. Here 1232 01:12:21,640 --> 01:12:25,840 Speaker 1: play a Here's how it Here's how it started out. Today. 1233 01:12:25,840 --> 01:12:28,639 Speaker 1: I meant to play this for you. Taking this action 1234 01:12:28,720 --> 01:12:32,280 Speaker 1: because of great concern for our country and our constitution, 1235 01:12:32,479 --> 01:12:37,320 Speaker 1: our national security, and our democracy. We believe the President 1236 01:12:37,360 --> 01:12:40,479 Speaker 1: Trump has violated the Constitution, and we've introduced five articles 1237 01:12:40,479 --> 01:12:46,280 Speaker 1: of appeachment. There you go, not gonna go anywhere. But 1238 01:12:47,160 --> 01:12:49,120 Speaker 1: oh and I one thing that I didn't pull a 1239 01:12:49,240 --> 01:12:51,000 Speaker 1: pull for the show, but I was thinking about it. 1240 01:12:51,040 --> 01:12:52,639 Speaker 1: I was gonna send it to Tie and Amy here, 1241 01:12:52,680 --> 01:12:56,120 Speaker 1: but you know there there's it's pretty powerful. Was making 1242 01:12:56,120 --> 01:12:59,400 Speaker 1: the rounds on social media speaking about impeachment, and given 1243 01:12:59,439 --> 01:13:01,679 Speaker 1: everything that's going on right now in the news cycle 1244 01:13:01,800 --> 01:13:04,920 Speaker 1: and everything we're hearing about with Judge Moore and all 1245 01:13:04,920 --> 01:13:10,519 Speaker 1: the rest of it. Uh, there's a pretty amazing seeing 1246 01:13:10,640 --> 01:13:13,679 Speaker 1: that that was making the rounds and in social media 1247 01:13:13,880 --> 01:13:16,800 Speaker 1: of and it's like Al Gore is there, and you know, 1248 01:13:16,880 --> 01:13:19,880 Speaker 1: all all the Clinton, the whole Clinton squad from back 1249 01:13:19,920 --> 01:13:25,519 Speaker 1: in the day, and it is after he was after Clinton, 1250 01:13:25,640 --> 01:13:29,080 Speaker 1: Bill Clinton, Hey, what's up. I'm here, I'm back, after 1251 01:13:29,080 --> 01:13:32,160 Speaker 1: Bill Clinton was impeached, were not removed from office by 1252 01:13:32,160 --> 01:13:35,640 Speaker 1: the Senate, but was impeached and just the it was 1253 01:13:35,760 --> 01:13:37,879 Speaker 1: right after it just a stand he got a standing 1254 01:13:37,880 --> 01:13:42,280 Speaker 1: ovation from all these gathered Democrats after that, and was 1255 01:13:42,680 --> 01:13:46,360 Speaker 1: it was just a reminder of how in Democrats circles 1256 01:13:46,439 --> 01:13:50,640 Speaker 1: left his circles, media circles. After all that, after the 1257 01:13:50,680 --> 01:13:54,280 Speaker 1: allegations came out of rape and sexually you know, being 1258 01:13:56,080 --> 01:14:00,200 Speaker 1: sexually you know, grotesque with a with an in her 1259 01:14:00,240 --> 01:14:02,360 Speaker 1: and in the oval office and the whole thing and 1260 01:14:02,400 --> 01:14:05,360 Speaker 1: the story, I mean, and all the stories about the 1261 01:14:05,479 --> 01:14:08,760 Speaker 1: dress and the it was just in the cigar and 1262 01:14:08,800 --> 01:14:13,040 Speaker 1: all of it. Right after all that, Democrats were still 1263 01:14:13,600 --> 01:14:17,200 Speaker 1: standing like and clapping like trained seals for Bill Clinton. 1264 01:14:18,040 --> 01:14:20,479 Speaker 1: And I just think it's worth remembering that, you know, 1265 01:14:20,520 --> 01:14:22,439 Speaker 1: as we go go forward here. I know I've talked 1266 01:14:22,439 --> 01:14:24,960 Speaker 1: about it before, but to keep that in mind. And 1267 01:14:25,000 --> 01:14:28,639 Speaker 1: if you really want to feel like Democrats can't lecture 1268 01:14:28,640 --> 01:14:33,120 Speaker 1: anybody ever any time about moral probity or anything else, 1269 01:14:33,439 --> 01:14:35,600 Speaker 1: go back and read about Teddy Kennedy at chap A 1270 01:14:35,680 --> 01:14:40,479 Speaker 1: quick decided to drive a car he was drunk off 1271 01:14:40,520 --> 01:14:44,920 Speaker 1: a bridge with his mistress, let her slowly drown in 1272 01:14:44,960 --> 01:14:48,040 Speaker 1: the vehicle. He just he just got out of there. 1273 01:14:48,320 --> 01:14:51,040 Speaker 1: He just decided to scoot try to get an alibi 1274 01:14:51,080 --> 01:14:53,639 Speaker 1: for himself. Nearby led a woman that he was having 1275 01:14:53,640 --> 01:14:56,160 Speaker 1: an affair worth but that he was sleeping with ground 1276 01:14:57,520 --> 01:14:59,760 Speaker 1: and he was the lion of the Senate. Everybody. That 1277 01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:06,200 Speaker 1: are a few days there when the Visa diversity Lottery 1278 01:15:06,880 --> 01:15:11,360 Speaker 1: was getting some attention. There were a few days when 1279 01:15:11,360 --> 01:15:13,360 Speaker 1: we were looking at this, and I think a lot 1280 01:15:13,400 --> 01:15:18,720 Speaker 1: of Americans were waking up to just how absurd as 1281 01:15:18,720 --> 01:15:23,400 Speaker 1: a matter of policy this was. That we would take 1282 01:15:23,760 --> 01:15:26,200 Speaker 1: first of all, In case you you didn't read this, 1283 01:15:26,240 --> 01:15:30,360 Speaker 1: didn't see this somewhere, there are countries that are excluded 1284 01:15:30,439 --> 01:15:34,720 Speaker 1: from it based on their previous levels of immigration into 1285 01:15:34,760 --> 01:15:39,800 Speaker 1: the country. So automatically, the Diversity Lottery means that if 1286 01:15:39,840 --> 01:15:42,400 Speaker 1: we're taking a lot of people from a certain country, 1287 01:15:42,560 --> 01:15:44,040 Speaker 1: they're not going to be part of it. Now. I know, 1288 01:15:44,080 --> 01:15:46,400 Speaker 1: the Diversity Lottery is only about fifty people a year. 1289 01:15:46,400 --> 01:15:49,679 Speaker 1: It's not that big in terms of overall numbers. But 1290 01:15:50,120 --> 01:15:53,360 Speaker 1: when you look at where we're taking a lot of 1291 01:15:53,360 --> 01:15:57,760 Speaker 1: people for the Diversity Lottery, they tend to be a 1292 01:15:58,000 --> 01:16:03,240 Speaker 1: lot of countries that have security problems. Uh. They are 1293 01:16:03,280 --> 01:16:05,720 Speaker 1: not countries where we are going to be picking up 1294 01:16:06,560 --> 01:16:10,120 Speaker 1: uh per capita as a as a function of the percentages, 1295 01:16:10,479 --> 01:16:14,040 Speaker 1: it is less likely it will be picking up brain surgeons, 1296 01:16:14,120 --> 01:16:19,280 Speaker 1: rocket scientists, entrepreneurs, etcetera. It's just this is the reality. Now. 1297 01:16:19,680 --> 01:16:23,040 Speaker 1: Every individual's judges the individual. I understand that. But our 1298 01:16:23,080 --> 01:16:25,920 Speaker 1: immigration policy should be based on that, meaning that we 1299 01:16:25,960 --> 01:16:29,439 Speaker 1: don't just decide to give away visas at randoms people 1300 01:16:29,439 --> 01:16:31,360 Speaker 1: can come and stay in the country. It should be 1301 01:16:31,560 --> 01:16:35,800 Speaker 1: very much about what will someone bring to the country. 1302 01:16:35,920 --> 01:16:38,680 Speaker 1: And here's what Fox News is reporting on Earlier in 1303 01:16:38,920 --> 01:16:43,280 Speaker 1: the week, at least five four nationals with suspected ties 1304 01:16:43,320 --> 01:16:46,920 Speaker 1: to terror resettled in the US through the same visa 1305 01:16:46,960 --> 01:16:51,320 Speaker 1: lottery program allowed New York City terror suspects Si Fulo 1306 01:16:51,520 --> 01:16:54,799 Speaker 1: Scipav into the country, The Trump administration said on Tuesday. 1307 01:16:55,240 --> 01:16:58,919 Speaker 1: Si Pauv, the Isis sympathizer who allegedly committed the Halloween 1308 01:16:59,000 --> 01:17:01,840 Speaker 1: terror attack and loreman Hattan that left eight dead and 1309 01:17:02,280 --> 01:17:07,080 Speaker 1: eleven injured, entered the US from Uzbekistan in through the 1310 01:17:07,200 --> 01:17:11,519 Speaker 1: Visa the Lottery Lottery program. The Visa Lottery, also known 1311 01:17:11,520 --> 01:17:15,040 Speaker 1: as the Diversity Visa Waiver program, grants up to fifty 1312 01:17:15,040 --> 01:17:19,280 Speaker 1: thousand immigrant visas annually drawn from random selection among all 1313 01:17:19,400 --> 01:17:21,680 Speaker 1: entries to individuals who are from countries with low rates 1314 01:17:21,720 --> 01:17:24,080 Speaker 1: of immigration to the US. That's all from immigration and 1315 01:17:24,120 --> 01:17:29,559 Speaker 1: Customs services. So a merit based system is what I 1316 01:17:29,600 --> 01:17:32,160 Speaker 1: think most Americans thought we had, and we don't. We 1317 01:17:32,200 --> 01:17:35,639 Speaker 1: have a chain based immigration system, chain migration, so people 1318 01:17:36,479 --> 01:17:38,600 Speaker 1: who are here to get to sponsor more people to 1319 01:17:38,720 --> 01:17:42,280 Speaker 1: come here. And that's primary, that's number one on the list. 1320 01:17:42,360 --> 01:17:45,240 Speaker 1: And then you also have these programs like the Visa 1321 01:17:45,640 --> 01:17:53,160 Speaker 1: immigration I'm sorry, Visa Diversity program and it's a security risk. Um, 1322 01:17:53,160 --> 01:17:55,679 Speaker 1: it's a security risk. And this is why five four 1323 01:17:55,800 --> 01:18:00,240 Speaker 1: nationals with suspected terroritized according to the Trump administration. Look, 1324 01:18:00,240 --> 01:18:02,040 Speaker 1: I don't have access to the raw data they do, 1325 01:18:02,960 --> 01:18:07,320 Speaker 1: and they're saying that this is something that is just 1326 01:18:07,640 --> 01:18:10,960 Speaker 1: needs to stop. I mean, quite honestly, quite obviously, this 1327 01:18:11,080 --> 01:18:14,000 Speaker 1: is a problem. We should get to a point where 1328 01:18:14,600 --> 01:18:18,679 Speaker 1: we are no longer in a position that would even 1329 01:18:18,680 --> 01:18:23,320 Speaker 1: make it possible or or in the least that we 1330 01:18:23,360 --> 01:18:27,040 Speaker 1: would bring in somebody knowingly into this country who may 1331 01:18:27,040 --> 01:18:29,240 Speaker 1: be a security risk is from a country that does 1332 01:18:29,240 --> 01:18:31,559 Speaker 1: not have the kind of vetting programs in place that 1333 01:18:32,080 --> 01:18:36,280 Speaker 1: the administration wants them to. So the visa, the visa 1334 01:18:36,320 --> 01:18:40,439 Speaker 1: diversity lottery is I think going to go away under 1335 01:18:40,439 --> 01:18:43,680 Speaker 1: this administration, which would be a good thing. Um. I 1336 01:18:43,960 --> 01:18:46,920 Speaker 1: should also know that there are when you start to 1337 01:18:46,960 --> 01:18:51,360 Speaker 1: look at how many individuals are being brought to the 1338 01:18:51,400 --> 01:18:55,640 Speaker 1: country under chain migration that are over the age of fifty, 1339 01:18:55,800 --> 01:18:58,559 Speaker 1: it's pretty high. It's a pretty high percentage. So now 1340 01:18:58,840 --> 01:19:02,000 Speaker 1: we are just because we're just gonna be paying for 1341 01:19:02,640 --> 01:19:07,479 Speaker 1: the developing world's health care increasingly going forward. That's what 1342 01:19:07,520 --> 01:19:09,639 Speaker 1: will happen if I mean if you had an immigration system. 1343 01:19:09,640 --> 01:19:11,280 Speaker 1: Think about it this way. If you're an immigration system 1344 01:19:11,280 --> 01:19:14,360 Speaker 1: where somebody could come here and get permanent residency, permanent 1345 01:19:14,360 --> 01:19:19,080 Speaker 1: status and there retire of retiree age, and they're just 1346 01:19:19,120 --> 01:19:21,960 Speaker 1: coming to America for that point that portion of their lives, 1347 01:19:22,360 --> 01:19:24,280 Speaker 1: that's when a vast majority of the medical bills come 1348 01:19:24,360 --> 01:19:27,040 Speaker 1: due for all of us. So keep that in mind 1349 01:19:27,479 --> 01:19:30,640 Speaker 1: as we have no reform of entitlements on the horizon 1350 01:19:30,800 --> 01:19:34,120 Speaker 1: and getting deeper and deeper into debt twenty trillion dollars 1351 01:19:34,120 --> 01:19:35,960 Speaker 1: into debt. To talk to you about this. One more 1352 01:19:36,000 --> 01:19:39,080 Speaker 1: note on immigration today, and that is that a judge 1353 01:19:39,120 --> 01:19:45,080 Speaker 1: has stopped Trump from the Trump administration from withholding funds 1354 01:19:46,080 --> 01:19:52,080 Speaker 1: two sanctuary cities. And that is based on the well 1355 01:19:52,200 --> 01:19:56,120 Speaker 1: I had a feeling this would happen because, for one, 1356 01:19:56,439 --> 01:20:02,720 Speaker 1: it is not clear, and I have immigration experts who 1357 01:20:02,760 --> 01:20:05,320 Speaker 1: are hawkish on the issue of border security, who are 1358 01:20:06,200 --> 01:20:12,200 Speaker 1: hawkish on the um the issues that the Trump campaign 1359 01:20:12,920 --> 01:20:17,840 Speaker 1: ran on when it comes to immigration, and there are 1360 01:20:17,960 --> 01:20:20,920 Speaker 1: some who will say that you can't you can't make 1361 01:20:21,040 --> 01:20:27,560 Speaker 1: police do immigration policing. Now, what the sanctuary city policy 1362 01:20:27,640 --> 01:20:31,400 Speaker 1: has to, you know, deals with is will you hold 1363 01:20:31,560 --> 01:20:35,160 Speaker 1: people and will you notify and will you hold illegals? 1364 01:20:36,240 --> 01:20:41,479 Speaker 1: Notification is already a law, and there's no reasonable there's 1365 01:20:41,520 --> 01:20:47,920 Speaker 1: no reasonable way for the sanctuary jurisdictions to get away 1366 01:20:48,120 --> 01:20:53,919 Speaker 1: with UM get away with not notifying but not holding 1367 01:20:54,000 --> 01:20:56,439 Speaker 1: beyond what they would in order for immigration and customs 1368 01:20:56,439 --> 01:20:59,040 Speaker 1: and forced to come along and having funds contingent on that. 1369 01:20:59,160 --> 01:21:01,120 Speaker 1: I'm not sure that the courts will side with the 1370 01:21:01,120 --> 01:21:04,320 Speaker 1: administration on that, even as it makes its way up, 1371 01:21:04,360 --> 01:21:07,240 Speaker 1: even as it goes even higher. I think that I'll 1372 01:21:07,280 --> 01:21:09,120 Speaker 1: look in the specifics of this decision, but I've been 1373 01:21:09,120 --> 01:21:11,679 Speaker 1: worried that this would happen for a while. They would 1374 01:21:11,720 --> 01:21:18,679 Speaker 1: run run into once again the separation here between local 1375 01:21:18,760 --> 01:21:21,160 Speaker 1: law enforcement, state law enforcement, and what the federal government 1376 01:21:21,200 --> 01:21:23,639 Speaker 1: can mandate with regard to police powers in the States. 1377 01:21:23,640 --> 01:21:26,439 Speaker 1: So we'll see this will continue to play out, but 1378 01:21:26,520 --> 01:21:28,679 Speaker 1: so far it seems like there's some hurdles to withholding 1379 01:21:28,680 --> 01:21:31,880 Speaker 1: those sanctuary city funds. We're gonna talk about the latest 1380 01:21:31,880 --> 01:21:36,240 Speaker 1: sexual harassment allegations out of Hollywood just a few Stay 1381 01:21:36,280 --> 01:21:43,679 Speaker 1: with me. Basically found myself with a group um at night, 1382 01:21:43,960 --> 01:21:46,960 Speaker 1: hanging out watching a movie at an apartment around the 1383 01:21:46,960 --> 01:21:49,559 Speaker 1: corner from where I lived, which I assumed was his apartment. Again, 1384 01:21:49,640 --> 01:21:51,439 Speaker 1: I didn't know him. Well, I'd never been there before. 1385 01:21:51,479 --> 01:21:53,360 Speaker 1: It was it was six or seven of us there 1386 01:21:53,600 --> 01:21:58,000 Speaker 1: and um and uh, we all sort of fell asleep 1387 01:21:58,080 --> 01:22:00,280 Speaker 1: or what I thought. We were just dozing off watching 1388 01:22:00,280 --> 01:22:02,240 Speaker 1: a film. And when I woke up, I was alone 1389 01:22:02,280 --> 01:22:08,320 Speaker 1: there with him and tried to leave, and one thing 1390 01:22:08,400 --> 01:22:10,920 Speaker 1: led to another and he didn't, you know, he was 1391 01:22:11,000 --> 01:22:15,240 Speaker 1: not going to allow me to leave. So yeah, so 1392 01:22:15,320 --> 01:22:19,360 Speaker 1: he blocked the door and um, and didn't let me 1393 01:22:19,439 --> 01:22:23,160 Speaker 1: leave In that Um, well, it got really scary from there. 1394 01:22:24,160 --> 01:22:28,680 Speaker 1: That was actress Natasha Henstridge speaking to Megan kelly Or 1395 01:22:28,760 --> 01:22:33,760 Speaker 1: this morning about in interaction that she had talking about 1396 01:22:33,800 --> 01:22:37,280 Speaker 1: the alleged sexual assault at the hands of Brett Rattner, 1397 01:22:37,360 --> 01:22:40,680 Speaker 1: a very prominent Hollywood director who I believe, as of 1398 01:22:40,760 --> 01:22:44,920 Speaker 1: today has been pulled off of any involvement with the 1399 01:22:45,240 --> 01:22:49,040 Speaker 1: Wonder Woman franchise because Gala Godot, the elite in that, 1400 01:22:49,080 --> 01:22:51,679 Speaker 1: has said that she wants nothing to do with anything 1401 01:22:51,680 --> 01:22:55,200 Speaker 1: that Brett Rattner has anything to do with. So more 1402 01:22:55,240 --> 01:22:57,320 Speaker 1: of these stories keep coming out, and there are more 1403 01:22:57,360 --> 01:23:01,760 Speaker 1: and more ramifications and an immediate action taken as a 1404 01:23:01,800 --> 01:23:04,120 Speaker 1: result of them. We have Emily Companio with us here 1405 01:23:04,120 --> 01:23:07,000 Speaker 1: in studio. She's a legal analyst. You can follow her 1406 01:23:07,000 --> 01:23:10,160 Speaker 1: on Twitter at Emily Campaniou. Emily, thanks for staying through 1407 01:23:10,200 --> 01:23:13,559 Speaker 1: to talk to us about this one. Uh, the latest 1408 01:23:13,680 --> 01:23:17,360 Speaker 1: on the Weinstein case and Rose mcgow Actually, I'm sorry 1409 01:23:17,360 --> 01:23:19,280 Speaker 1: before we get into that, hold back for one second. 1410 01:23:19,600 --> 01:23:22,160 Speaker 1: Hence Ridge Brett Ratner. Brett Ratner is now off the 1411 01:23:22,200 --> 01:23:25,519 Speaker 1: Wonder Woman movie. There's a sense I think that people 1412 01:23:25,520 --> 01:23:28,880 Speaker 1: have that this may be happening because the studios, yes, 1413 01:23:28,920 --> 01:23:31,400 Speaker 1: that they want to take this seriously, they want to act. 1414 01:23:31,479 --> 01:23:34,559 Speaker 1: But is there also a possible liability question here for 1415 01:23:34,600 --> 01:23:37,479 Speaker 1: studios that if they if it's known that Brett Ratner, 1416 01:23:37,560 --> 01:23:39,800 Speaker 1: for example, engages in this kind of behavior and then 1417 01:23:39,840 --> 01:23:42,160 Speaker 1: on set once again he does it. Is there any 1418 01:23:42,360 --> 01:23:45,760 Speaker 1: legal component to this that pushes the action from the 1419 01:23:45,800 --> 01:23:48,200 Speaker 1: studios or is it just they know that this is 1420 01:23:48,240 --> 01:23:49,800 Speaker 1: dirty stuff and they want to get as far away 1421 01:23:49,840 --> 01:23:52,040 Speaker 1: from it as fast as possible. Are they liable? I 1422 01:23:52,040 --> 01:23:54,800 Speaker 1: mean for guys that are engaged in this kind of stuff, 1423 01:23:54,840 --> 01:23:58,920 Speaker 1: especially if they knew about it beforehand. Absolutely so, in 1424 01:23:59,000 --> 01:24:03,640 Speaker 1: any type of employer employment situation, if the employer, so 1425 01:24:03,680 --> 01:24:06,960 Speaker 1: if the studio knew about some type of predatory behavior 1426 01:24:07,040 --> 01:24:11,120 Speaker 1: or specifically someone with a history of assault in any 1427 01:24:11,160 --> 01:24:15,559 Speaker 1: type of dangerous situation who had not take taken steps 1428 01:24:15,560 --> 01:24:17,559 Speaker 1: to mitigate. So we're not talking about someone, for example, 1429 01:24:17,600 --> 01:24:20,799 Speaker 1: with a record where one could argue, we do hire 1430 01:24:20,920 --> 01:24:23,519 Speaker 1: ex felons and that is within our right and here's 1431 01:24:23,520 --> 01:24:26,599 Speaker 1: how we disclose, etcetera. So notwithstanding that small subgroup, they 1432 01:24:26,600 --> 01:24:30,759 Speaker 1: are absolutely responsible for a knew and did nothing about 1433 01:24:30,840 --> 01:24:35,679 Speaker 1: it when they are responsible for the hiring of including 1434 01:24:35,720 --> 01:24:38,160 Speaker 1: independent contractors on their set, so that's everyone from makeup 1435 01:24:38,200 --> 01:24:41,400 Speaker 1: artists to actresses, etcetera. I mean obviously in an employer 1436 01:24:41,400 --> 01:24:43,720 Speaker 1: employee relationship that they could be liable for sexual rass 1437 01:24:43,840 --> 01:24:46,639 Speaker 1: What I mean is does it heighten the liability if 1438 01:24:46,640 --> 01:24:49,040 Speaker 1: there is a pattern and a known and in the 1439 01:24:49,040 --> 01:24:51,200 Speaker 1: person's a known harasser and you bring them on, you know, 1440 01:24:51,240 --> 01:24:52,960 Speaker 1: are you more liable or is it more likely to 1441 01:24:53,120 --> 01:24:56,680 Speaker 1: be an adverse judgment against a studio for example, for 1442 01:24:56,720 --> 01:25:00,720 Speaker 1: sexual harassment? Essentially, is Brett Ratner a bigger are you 1443 01:25:00,760 --> 01:25:03,880 Speaker 1: possibly gonna have to pay out a bigger settlement if 1444 01:25:03,920 --> 01:25:05,760 Speaker 1: it is known and you brought him on anyway, and 1445 01:25:05,760 --> 01:25:07,880 Speaker 1: then he does it again, there are a few ways 1446 01:25:07,920 --> 01:25:11,120 Speaker 1: to answer that number one. After the Catholic church abuse 1447 01:25:11,160 --> 01:25:14,799 Speaker 1: scandals in California, there was a statute enacted which enabled 1448 01:25:14,800 --> 01:25:17,879 Speaker 1: people to sue someone with whom they have a professional 1449 01:25:17,920 --> 01:25:22,040 Speaker 1: relationship for not taking reasonable steps to stop or mitigate 1450 01:25:22,080 --> 01:25:27,040 Speaker 1: predatory behavior. So yes, answer number one, Yes, absolutely, because 1451 01:25:27,040 --> 01:25:29,840 Speaker 1: the studio can be held liable and anyone who knew 1452 01:25:29,880 --> 01:25:34,600 Speaker 1: about his behavior did nothing and sent their person they represented, 1453 01:25:34,920 --> 01:25:37,160 Speaker 1: or the makeup artists that they hired, or whoever it 1454 01:25:37,280 --> 01:25:40,840 Speaker 1: was that they put him essentially in his you know, 1455 01:25:40,960 --> 01:25:44,360 Speaker 1: late laid them at his feet. Yes, they are liable 1456 01:25:44,479 --> 01:25:47,160 Speaker 1: under an additional set of laws with the statute limitations 1457 01:25:47,160 --> 01:25:50,080 Speaker 1: of one year. Under that number two. Yes, but it's 1458 01:25:50,160 --> 01:25:52,720 Speaker 1: kind of a complicated answer, and here's why. So you 1459 01:25:52,760 --> 01:25:56,720 Speaker 1: can argue the personal liability of that, but you could 1460 01:25:56,760 --> 01:25:59,200 Speaker 1: also just argue that it ups the witness count, so 1461 01:25:59,240 --> 01:26:03,080 Speaker 1: it doesn't necessary early In add to, well, you knew 1462 01:26:03,160 --> 01:26:05,519 Speaker 1: or should have known, because that always follows the two 1463 01:26:05,520 --> 01:26:08,320 Speaker 1: of them, or the two always follow together. Legally, you 1464 01:26:08,400 --> 01:26:11,720 Speaker 1: knew or you should have known, so ironically, in the 1465 01:26:11,720 --> 01:26:14,920 Speaker 1: eyes of the court, if you knew, it ups that level. 1466 01:26:15,080 --> 01:26:17,200 Speaker 1: But if you didn't know you still should have known, 1467 01:26:17,640 --> 01:26:21,240 Speaker 1: and especially given that kind of commonly held assumptions were 1468 01:26:21,240 --> 01:26:24,640 Speaker 1: oftentimes people have said, well, everyone knew, but I was 1469 01:26:24,680 --> 01:26:26,759 Speaker 1: that one in the dark. I was the one agent 1470 01:26:26,800 --> 01:26:31,360 Speaker 1: that had no idea forgive me. And now that person 1471 01:26:31,439 --> 01:26:35,160 Speaker 1: has cried installation, So that goes to a credibility analysis 1472 01:26:35,160 --> 01:26:38,200 Speaker 1: on that too. But in terms of legally, I mean, 1473 01:26:38,840 --> 01:26:41,840 Speaker 1: you stated it in the beginning employer, employee, and the 1474 01:26:41,880 --> 01:26:44,679 Speaker 1: fact that more people knew about it, it renders those 1475 01:26:44,680 --> 01:26:47,120 Speaker 1: people liable if they had a direct relationship with the 1476 01:26:47,160 --> 01:26:50,040 Speaker 1: person who eventually was a victim. And now tell me 1477 01:26:50,040 --> 01:26:53,960 Speaker 1: about the latest which this story. I keep thinking that, Okay, 1478 01:26:54,000 --> 01:26:58,479 Speaker 1: we we've gotten to the point in the Weinstein saga, 1479 01:26:58,720 --> 01:27:05,520 Speaker 1: this this whole unful ding drama of unbelievable abuse and 1480 01:27:05,520 --> 01:27:09,360 Speaker 1: and assault and cover up and employing x spies and 1481 01:27:09,439 --> 01:27:13,439 Speaker 1: all this stuff. There's another there's yet another chapter in 1482 01:27:13,479 --> 01:27:15,720 Speaker 1: the Weinstein saga that I wanted you to tell every 1483 01:27:15,760 --> 01:27:20,439 Speaker 1: of everybody about now that involves Rose McGowan. I'm so 1484 01:27:20,520 --> 01:27:23,600 Speaker 1: happy that we're discussing this because you and I discussed 1485 01:27:23,680 --> 01:27:27,639 Speaker 1: the really alarming revelations that came out about Weinstein's army 1486 01:27:27,680 --> 01:27:32,040 Speaker 1: of spies So for your repeat listeners, when we discussed 1487 01:27:32,080 --> 01:27:37,639 Speaker 1: that Weinstein basically employed an army of spies through private 1488 01:27:38,120 --> 01:27:44,120 Speaker 1: UM investigation agencies to derail book publication by Rose McGowan 1489 01:27:44,600 --> 01:27:49,679 Speaker 1: and UM and essentially quash any type of publications about 1490 01:27:49,720 --> 01:27:55,040 Speaker 1: her allegations and those and that book. So cut two. Now, 1491 01:27:55,120 --> 01:27:59,559 Speaker 1: in January, Rose McGowan was on a flight to d 1492 01:27:59,640 --> 01:28:04,519 Speaker 1: C or February one. UM in January she was flying, 1493 01:28:04,520 --> 01:28:07,599 Speaker 1: but on February one is what authorities got the warrant. 1494 01:28:07,880 --> 01:28:10,920 Speaker 1: She left her wallet on the plane. Her story is, 1495 01:28:11,240 --> 01:28:13,360 Speaker 1: immediately upon getting off the plane, and this was for 1496 01:28:13,520 --> 01:28:17,920 Speaker 1: Women's March, she tweeted at the airline and filed a 1497 01:28:17,960 --> 01:28:23,440 Speaker 1: lost luggage claim. She then alleges that she on Instagram 1498 01:28:23,680 --> 01:28:26,519 Speaker 1: had a random person reach out and say, hey, we 1499 01:28:26,680 --> 01:28:30,520 Speaker 1: have your wallet along with your two bags of coke cocaine. 1500 01:28:31,160 --> 01:28:34,439 Speaker 1: So from there the story parallels that she was actually 1501 01:28:34,520 --> 01:28:38,840 Speaker 1: contacted on numerous occasions by people identifying themselves as detectives, 1502 01:28:39,200 --> 01:28:42,240 Speaker 1: as authorities who were saying, you left your wallet on 1503 01:28:42,280 --> 01:28:46,799 Speaker 1: the plane and it contained narcotics, traces of narcotics quote unquote, 1504 01:28:46,880 --> 01:28:49,760 Speaker 1: and therefore you are culpable and we are issuing a 1505 01:28:49,800 --> 01:28:52,920 Speaker 1: warrant for your arrest. That was on February one. Now, 1506 01:28:53,080 --> 01:28:57,280 Speaker 1: she questioned the authenticity of these people's identifications throughout so 1507 01:28:57,360 --> 01:29:00,599 Speaker 1: interestingly from the get go, she was taking green shots 1508 01:29:00,600 --> 01:29:03,360 Speaker 1: of the Instagram posts, she was documenting these phone calls, 1509 01:29:03,720 --> 01:29:06,720 Speaker 1: and she wasn't meeting with them because she was nervous. 1510 01:29:06,760 --> 01:29:10,519 Speaker 1: And her story is such that she had been rendered 1511 01:29:10,960 --> 01:29:14,360 Speaker 1: fearful by the continued people who had entered her life 1512 01:29:14,439 --> 01:29:17,639 Speaker 1: under auspices of an authentic identity and trying to win 1513 01:29:17,680 --> 01:29:21,120 Speaker 1: her over, when really she was discovering that they were, um, 1514 01:29:21,160 --> 01:29:25,320 Speaker 1: you know, working essentially for Weinstein. So ultimately, however, it 1515 01:29:25,560 --> 01:29:28,600 Speaker 1: is true and accurate that the that the State of 1516 01:29:28,680 --> 01:29:32,840 Speaker 1: Virginia um executed a warrant for her arrest and have 1517 01:29:32,920 --> 01:29:37,599 Speaker 1: now filed charges against her for felony drug possession. Now 1518 01:29:37,680 --> 01:29:40,840 Speaker 1: in the state of Virginia, simple drug possession cocaine is 1519 01:29:40,880 --> 01:29:44,960 Speaker 1: a schedule to drugs. She's facing um and not insignificant 1520 01:29:44,960 --> 01:29:47,800 Speaker 1: fine and up to a year in jail. And she 1521 01:29:47,960 --> 01:29:51,639 Speaker 1: has said this is a complete set up from her 1522 01:29:51,640 --> 01:29:56,520 Speaker 1: her story is this is incredible, literally like not believable. 1523 01:29:56,840 --> 01:30:00,000 Speaker 1: And she said, yeah, I admit I do drugs. Mayor 1524 01:30:00,040 --> 01:30:02,840 Speaker 1: wanta is my jam quote unquote, I would never think 1525 01:30:02,880 --> 01:30:06,120 Speaker 1: of doing a substance like cocaine, especially for a women's march. 1526 01:30:06,160 --> 01:30:10,280 Speaker 1: Like she she finds the whole thing unbelievable. But from 1527 01:30:10,280 --> 01:30:13,760 Speaker 1: what she's spacing right now, it's a felony chart. I mean, 1528 01:30:13,800 --> 01:30:15,720 Speaker 1: it looks like especially when you add in the story 1529 01:30:15,760 --> 01:30:19,080 Speaker 1: about Instagram and Twitter, it looks like there could have 1530 01:30:19,160 --> 01:30:22,320 Speaker 1: been and given what we have already read about Weinstein's 1531 01:30:22,439 --> 01:30:25,120 Speaker 1: army of spies, looks like this could be some kind 1532 01:30:25,160 --> 01:30:29,120 Speaker 1: of social media hit totally. And I will say that 1533 01:30:29,320 --> 01:30:34,000 Speaker 1: part of her allegations and pointing pointing toward the again 1534 01:30:34,280 --> 01:30:37,799 Speaker 1: incredulity aspect of this is the fact that the wallet 1535 01:30:37,840 --> 01:30:40,840 Speaker 1: and the bags were left unattended for I want to say, 1536 01:30:40,880 --> 01:30:44,120 Speaker 1: over fifty hours. So I will say that taking a 1537 01:30:44,160 --> 01:30:46,880 Speaker 1: step outside of the army of spies, and just as 1538 01:30:46,920 --> 01:30:49,519 Speaker 1: a legal analysis, there is no way that a chain 1539 01:30:49,560 --> 01:30:53,840 Speaker 1: of custody will will hold water. There's no way that 1540 01:30:53,880 --> 01:30:57,080 Speaker 1: she will be convicted of this count because that alone, 1541 01:30:57,120 --> 01:30:59,599 Speaker 1: even if it was left alone for one minute, that's 1542 01:30:59,680 --> 01:31:02,439 Speaker 1: enough to cause the doubts. So the fact that for 1543 01:31:02,520 --> 01:31:06,679 Speaker 1: hours and hours her things were left unattended and subject 1544 01:31:06,720 --> 01:31:10,759 Speaker 1: to tampering with that right. There is a tremendous reg flag. 1545 01:31:10,760 --> 01:31:12,639 Speaker 1: It won't hold up any one more for your Emily. 1546 01:31:13,439 --> 01:31:18,679 Speaker 1: Democratic Representative Jackie Spire said that about fifteen million dollars 1547 01:31:18,800 --> 01:31:20,519 Speaker 1: we have we have the audio tie please play a 1548 01:31:20,560 --> 01:31:23,479 Speaker 1: fifty million dollars spending settlements paid out by the House 1549 01:31:23,520 --> 01:31:27,280 Speaker 1: of Representatives on behalf of those accused of sexual harassment. 1550 01:31:27,320 --> 01:31:30,679 Speaker 1: Go saying now, is is that you know of two 1551 01:31:30,680 --> 01:31:34,519 Speaker 1: individuals who have paid out sexual harassment settlements. So taxpayer 1552 01:31:34,600 --> 01:31:38,120 Speaker 1: money has been used to protect the identity of these 1553 01:31:38,160 --> 01:31:42,360 Speaker 1: members of Congress. One member of Congress has um been 1554 01:31:43,360 --> 01:31:48,880 Speaker 1: has settled a claim and there has been a taxpayer settlement. 1555 01:31:49,920 --> 01:31:54,160 Speaker 1: Is this something that um if the taxpayers involved, don't 1556 01:31:54,200 --> 01:31:56,360 Speaker 1: we have the right to know? Well, I think you 1557 01:31:56,400 --> 01:31:58,800 Speaker 1: do have the right to know, but right now under 1558 01:31:58,840 --> 01:32:01,280 Speaker 1: the system, don't have a right to know. We do 1559 01:32:01,400 --> 01:32:04,439 Speaker 1: know that there's a about fifteen million dollars that has 1560 01:32:04,520 --> 01:32:10,640 Speaker 1: been paid out by the House on behalf of harassers 1561 01:32:10,680 --> 01:32:13,639 Speaker 1: in the last ten to fifteen years. I don't really 1562 01:32:13,680 --> 01:32:17,519 Speaker 1: know how many members that entail. Okay, Emily, fifteen million 1563 01:32:17,520 --> 01:32:21,479 Speaker 1: dollars over ten years and not insignificant sum of money over, 1564 01:32:21,600 --> 01:32:23,760 Speaker 1: you're looking at about at one point five million year 1565 01:32:23,840 --> 01:32:27,080 Speaker 1: on average going out to people for sexual harassment claims 1566 01:32:27,080 --> 01:32:30,479 Speaker 1: on Capitol Hill. Some of those may be frivolous. I'm 1567 01:32:30,479 --> 01:32:32,280 Speaker 1: guessing a lot of them are not. And I think 1568 01:32:32,320 --> 01:32:35,800 Speaker 1: that the dam maybe breaking on the next series of 1569 01:32:35,800 --> 01:32:37,960 Speaker 1: sexual harassment revelations which would be coming out of d 1570 01:32:38,080 --> 01:32:41,200 Speaker 1: C and out of our nation's capital and the Capitol 1571 01:32:41,240 --> 01:32:45,719 Speaker 1: Building itself. I would love that. Here's why. More even 1572 01:32:45,760 --> 01:32:50,160 Speaker 1: than the enlightening of identities of those kinds of predators 1573 01:32:50,200 --> 01:32:55,200 Speaker 1: in our nation's government, what makes my blood boil is 1574 01:32:55,280 --> 01:33:02,120 Speaker 1: the is the um inappropriate stewardship of our taxpayer dollars. 1575 01:33:02,320 --> 01:33:04,280 Speaker 1: As a federal attorney, for a long time, part of 1576 01:33:04,320 --> 01:33:07,360 Speaker 1: my role was being an accurate steward. Every minute that 1577 01:33:07,400 --> 01:33:10,320 Speaker 1: a federal employee is working for the government, they are 1578 01:33:10,360 --> 01:33:13,520 Speaker 1: being a steward of taxpayers money because that's their salary. 1579 01:33:13,600 --> 01:33:18,440 Speaker 1: Everything they use, every resource they use is our money. 1580 01:33:18,479 --> 01:33:21,880 Speaker 1: And what kills me is the thought that up to 1581 01:33:22,200 --> 01:33:26,960 Speaker 1: fifteen million dollars of my our money was spent on 1582 01:33:27,000 --> 01:33:29,800 Speaker 1: this and that we don't have the visibility into it. 1583 01:33:30,160 --> 01:33:35,840 Speaker 1: To me, it's another example of how our government's opaque 1584 01:33:36,160 --> 01:33:41,000 Speaker 1: and inefficient and wasteful system is so toxic, and it 1585 01:33:41,000 --> 01:33:43,360 Speaker 1: would be really refreshing if we could bust that open, 1586 01:33:43,439 --> 01:33:46,920 Speaker 1: because I think, um, frankly, a lot of the toxicity 1587 01:33:47,040 --> 01:33:50,360 Speaker 1: comes from the inappropriate use of our money, and so 1588 01:33:50,479 --> 01:33:53,080 Speaker 1: I would love to see that be the next focus 1589 01:33:53,120 --> 01:33:56,960 Speaker 1: of an expose. Emily Campanio attorney and legal analysts. Thank 1590 01:33:56,960 --> 01:33:58,519 Speaker 1: you so much. I'm like for joining us here in studio. 1591 01:33:58,600 --> 01:34:01,160 Speaker 1: Great to have you. Thank you so watch buck Well 1592 01:34:01,240 --> 01:34:04,200 Speaker 1: in a break. Team will be right back. You know, 1593 01:34:04,240 --> 01:34:05,960 Speaker 1: there are a lot of ways that we think of 1594 01:34:06,360 --> 01:34:09,960 Speaker 1: technology changing the world around us. We think of it 1595 01:34:10,720 --> 01:34:12,640 Speaker 1: making it easier to communicate. We think of how it 1596 01:34:12,720 --> 01:34:16,360 Speaker 1: changes our businesses. But what we are I think seeing 1597 01:34:16,400 --> 01:34:19,640 Speaker 1: more and more of now and getting a better understanding 1598 01:34:19,720 --> 01:34:25,600 Speaker 1: of in time, is that technology also changes human behavior 1599 01:34:26,400 --> 01:34:30,200 Speaker 1: and that our behaviors are shifting in response to it. 1600 01:34:30,800 --> 01:34:34,519 Speaker 1: A great example of this to focus in on one 1601 01:34:35,160 --> 01:34:38,240 Speaker 1: problem that used to be a big one in this 1602 01:34:38,320 --> 01:34:43,360 Speaker 1: country and that technology has essentially eliminated. It still happens, 1603 01:34:43,400 --> 01:34:47,800 Speaker 1: but in in such smaller numbers that it's it's pretty incredible. 1604 01:34:48,479 --> 01:34:52,080 Speaker 1: Car theft. We grew up, I remember being at my 1605 01:34:52,240 --> 01:34:56,880 Speaker 1: friend's house. Uh, and his dad coming in and saying 1606 01:34:56,960 --> 01:35:00,519 Speaker 1: that the car I believe it was a I believe 1607 01:35:00,560 --> 01:35:03,920 Speaker 1: it was a Range Rover had been stolen, meaning you know, 1608 01:35:03,920 --> 01:35:06,240 Speaker 1: I was gone that their car had been and it 1609 01:35:06,360 --> 01:35:08,439 Speaker 1: was just, you know, you had that moment of oh, adults. 1610 01:35:08,479 --> 01:35:10,439 Speaker 1: I was young, I was maybe eleven or twelve years old, 1611 01:35:10,439 --> 01:35:12,920 Speaker 1: but you know, adults very upset. I mean it really 1612 01:35:13,479 --> 01:35:17,160 Speaker 1: And what was also very noticeable was it was upsetting, 1613 01:35:17,240 --> 01:35:19,479 Speaker 1: but it was all right, you know, call the insurance 1614 01:35:19,520 --> 01:35:21,400 Speaker 1: company in the car has been in. Our car has 1615 01:35:21,400 --> 01:35:24,479 Speaker 1: been stolen. I can't believe it, but it wasn't unheard of. 1616 01:35:25,479 --> 01:35:30,599 Speaker 1: Car theft in New York City has dropped over nine percent. 1617 01:35:30,760 --> 01:35:36,240 Speaker 1: I think it's actually dropped over. Car theft is a 1618 01:35:36,240 --> 01:35:40,680 Speaker 1: crime that almost does not occur anymore. The only exceptions 1619 01:35:40,680 --> 01:35:42,200 Speaker 1: those are wondering is if you have a car that 1620 01:35:42,360 --> 01:35:46,400 Speaker 1: is so uh old doesn't sound like a nice way 1621 01:35:46,439 --> 01:35:49,000 Speaker 1: to say it. If your car is such a a classic, 1622 01:35:49,479 --> 01:35:51,839 Speaker 1: thank you, tyrone. If your car is such a classic 1623 01:35:52,280 --> 01:35:55,080 Speaker 1: that it does not have electronics that were made circle 1624 01:35:55,120 --> 01:35:58,800 Speaker 1: I think two thousand three, two four, um, then it 1625 01:35:58,880 --> 01:36:01,200 Speaker 1: may still be stolen. So you have some really old 1626 01:36:02,120 --> 01:36:06,639 Speaker 1: civics or some some classics soon to be collector's item, uh, 1627 01:36:06,760 --> 01:36:10,600 Speaker 1: collector's item, Honda Civics from they might steal it and 1628 01:36:10,880 --> 01:36:13,400 Speaker 1: just scrap it use it for parts. But even that's 1629 01:36:13,439 --> 01:36:15,880 Speaker 1: become more difficult because all these places now that take 1630 01:36:15,960 --> 01:36:19,360 Speaker 1: cars have to take your I D and now they 1631 01:36:19,360 --> 01:36:22,720 Speaker 1: know who dropped off the car. So car theft is 1632 01:36:22,760 --> 01:36:28,160 Speaker 1: almost gone. And I remember it being a a thing 1633 01:36:28,160 --> 01:36:29,360 Speaker 1: that you had to think of. I remember my dad, 1634 01:36:29,400 --> 01:36:30,759 Speaker 1: you know, ever to make sure you locked the doors, 1635 01:36:30,800 --> 01:36:33,920 Speaker 1: and he wasn't being paranoid. Cars were getting stolen the 1636 01:36:33,920 --> 01:36:36,040 Speaker 1: eighties and nineties all the time, and they put them 1637 01:36:36,080 --> 01:36:38,760 Speaker 1: on a shipping container and then they'd send them overseas. 1638 01:36:38,760 --> 01:36:40,599 Speaker 1: If it was a luxury car or you know, they 1639 01:36:40,600 --> 01:36:44,040 Speaker 1: would they would go taken into a chop shop. Technology 1640 01:36:44,120 --> 01:36:47,880 Speaker 1: because they have GPS tracking in all these cars now, 1641 01:36:47,920 --> 01:36:50,439 Speaker 1: and because they have a chip that also does not 1642 01:36:50,560 --> 01:36:53,040 Speaker 1: allow the car to start. I mean, you can't hot 1643 01:36:53,080 --> 01:36:55,560 Speaker 1: wire a car now without that chip, and the dealership 1644 01:36:56,320 --> 01:37:01,400 Speaker 1: has the connectivity and the code for that. But that's 1645 01:37:01,439 --> 01:37:03,840 Speaker 1: all different now. So that's a problem that used to 1646 01:37:03,840 --> 01:37:05,120 Speaker 1: be a big thing. I mean, there a whole movie, 1647 01:37:05,120 --> 01:37:07,440 Speaker 1: you know, Grand Theft Auto. You think about that franchise. 1648 01:37:07,720 --> 01:37:10,439 Speaker 1: It's really theft auto doesn't really exist anymore. It's gone 1649 01:37:10,439 --> 01:37:13,679 Speaker 1: now because of technology. So these are and I'm somebody 1650 01:37:13,680 --> 01:37:16,080 Speaker 1: who I wish I had the time and the resources 1651 01:37:16,120 --> 01:37:20,400 Speaker 1: pull us together. We keep thinking about how policing has 1652 01:37:20,600 --> 01:37:23,479 Speaker 1: has gotten any policing has gotten better and more effective 1653 01:37:23,520 --> 01:37:28,040 Speaker 1: in part because of technology, uh, surveillance cameras, much better 1654 01:37:28,080 --> 01:37:31,760 Speaker 1: communication among law enforcement, much better databases and everything. But 1655 01:37:31,920 --> 01:37:35,280 Speaker 1: also I think there's been a huge, huge crime drop 1656 01:37:35,320 --> 01:37:38,160 Speaker 1: in this country in last fifteen or twenty years, last 1657 01:37:38,160 --> 01:37:42,840 Speaker 1: twenty years or so because of the technologies that are 1658 01:37:42,840 --> 01:37:45,559 Speaker 1: all around us now. And you just think about this 1659 01:37:45,680 --> 01:37:50,559 Speaker 1: right circa nineteen circa nineteen eighty, right right around the 1660 01:37:50,560 --> 01:37:53,040 Speaker 1: time that although not that year, around the time that 1661 01:37:53,080 --> 01:37:56,800 Speaker 1: I was born. If you heard something loud out on 1662 01:37:56,800 --> 01:38:00,000 Speaker 1: the street and you looked out your window, I'm assuming 1663 01:38:00,000 --> 01:38:01,760 Speaker 1: an hour in an urban area, but you know it 1664 01:38:01,760 --> 01:38:03,920 Speaker 1: could be in a town somewhere. You heard something on 1665 01:38:03,960 --> 01:38:06,320 Speaker 1: the street and sure enough, you know you heard you 1666 01:38:06,400 --> 01:38:11,479 Speaker 1: heard somebody yelling, and then someone got stabbed. Well, you 1667 01:38:11,520 --> 01:38:13,800 Speaker 1: definitely don't have a video camera, you definitely don't have 1668 01:38:13,840 --> 01:38:17,479 Speaker 1: a phone on you to call the police. And if 1669 01:38:17,479 --> 01:38:19,320 Speaker 1: you're just walking on the street. If you're not in 1670 01:38:19,400 --> 01:38:20,760 Speaker 1: your home. I know what I was saying, you're in 1671 01:38:20,800 --> 01:38:22,679 Speaker 1: your home, you may have to now run to get 1672 01:38:22,680 --> 01:38:26,439 Speaker 1: to a pay phone somewhere. The whole process is slowed 1673 01:38:26,439 --> 01:38:29,640 Speaker 1: down dramatically. That's just one way to think about it, 1674 01:38:29,680 --> 01:38:32,439 Speaker 1: never mind how all the other Then you can pull surveillance, 1675 01:38:32,439 --> 01:38:33,760 Speaker 1: and you know every time you get an a t 1676 01:38:33,880 --> 01:38:36,240 Speaker 1: M machine, you're under surveillance. When I go home on 1677 01:38:36,280 --> 01:38:38,479 Speaker 1: the subway here in New York City, there's cameras everywhere. 1678 01:38:38,840 --> 01:38:41,240 Speaker 1: There are cameras and communication devices all around us. That 1679 01:38:41,280 --> 01:38:44,679 Speaker 1: effects behavior. And here's why I'm thinking about this though, 1680 01:38:45,080 --> 01:38:46,599 Speaker 1: other than just to talk about I did a little 1681 01:38:46,600 --> 01:38:48,559 Speaker 1: research over the weekend on how car theft you just 1682 01:38:48,560 --> 01:38:50,799 Speaker 1: don't hear about it because it doesn't really happen anymore 1683 01:38:50,880 --> 01:38:54,040 Speaker 1: in this country. Uh it does, but like I said, 1684 01:38:54,080 --> 01:38:58,479 Speaker 1: down plus percent, at least in New York City. I 1685 01:38:58,479 --> 01:39:00,720 Speaker 1: assume it's like that in the rest of the country. 1686 01:39:01,400 --> 01:39:03,679 Speaker 1: You gotta always know that you could be recorded now 1687 01:39:04,200 --> 01:39:06,840 Speaker 1: and it's it's changing a lot, and you your voice 1688 01:39:06,840 --> 01:39:10,280 Speaker 1: to be recorded, video, your your actions can be recorded, 1689 01:39:10,640 --> 01:39:13,960 Speaker 1: and there's a district attorney. I mean this audio if 1690 01:39:14,000 --> 01:39:16,280 Speaker 1: you have not heard. We're gonna play something before you. Now. 1691 01:39:16,320 --> 01:39:20,519 Speaker 1: This audio is of a of a young assistant district 1692 01:39:20,560 --> 01:39:23,880 Speaker 1: attorney in the Dallas area in Texas who's getting a 1693 01:39:24,040 --> 01:39:27,320 Speaker 1: ride from an Uber driver. And so just think about this. Uber, 1694 01:39:27,520 --> 01:39:30,720 Speaker 1: the ride sharing service, very much on the on the 1695 01:39:30,760 --> 01:39:34,000 Speaker 1: forefront of technology. Uber is working with Google and working 1696 01:39:34,000 --> 01:39:36,679 Speaker 1: with uh different or no, not with Google, I forget, 1697 01:39:36,680 --> 01:39:38,519 Speaker 1: I forget who, but they're working with I think they 1698 01:39:38,560 --> 01:39:41,280 Speaker 1: are I don't know, to create almost like a neural 1699 01:39:41,360 --> 01:39:43,479 Speaker 1: net for cars and ride sharing. And I mean there's 1700 01:39:43,560 --> 01:39:47,160 Speaker 1: this whole future of the whole future of transportation is 1701 01:39:47,240 --> 01:39:50,040 Speaker 1: changing in very interesting ways that will affect all of us. 1702 01:39:50,120 --> 01:39:54,240 Speaker 1: I should know. Um, but that's the reality of of 1703 01:39:54,520 --> 01:39:57,479 Speaker 1: Uber's future. But right now, Uber means that you know, 1704 01:39:57,520 --> 01:39:59,679 Speaker 1: when you get into a can, you're not just paying 1705 01:40:00,000 --> 01:40:02,639 Speaker 1: ash for a cab anymore. They know who you are, 1706 01:40:03,240 --> 01:40:06,280 Speaker 1: They've got your name, they've got your credit card. So 1707 01:40:06,520 --> 01:40:09,519 Speaker 1: there is a level of of trust that is built, 1708 01:40:09,520 --> 01:40:11,680 Speaker 1: which is a great thing. Right. I've had I've had 1709 01:40:11,760 --> 01:40:15,880 Speaker 1: fantastic conversations with Uber drivers. Um. I you know, I 1710 01:40:15,960 --> 01:40:18,040 Speaker 1: had one Uber driver some months ago who was talking 1711 01:40:18,040 --> 01:40:20,719 Speaker 1: to me about how, you know, his parents wanted to 1712 01:40:20,760 --> 01:40:22,920 Speaker 1: make make him have an arranged marriage. You know. He 1713 01:40:22,960 --> 01:40:25,200 Speaker 1: was like in his mid twenties, and I was like, 1714 01:40:25,280 --> 01:40:27,280 Speaker 1: you live your life, man, you don't, you know whatever. 1715 01:40:27,360 --> 01:40:30,960 Speaker 1: Of course, so you know, we so the in depth conversations. 1716 01:40:30,960 --> 01:40:33,880 Speaker 1: One has an Uber driver. But I've had some great 1717 01:40:33,920 --> 01:40:37,639 Speaker 1: chats with with Uber drivers over the years. And this 1718 01:40:37,640 --> 01:40:41,400 Speaker 1: this Uber driver, though, had an assistant district attorney from 1719 01:40:41,400 --> 01:40:47,599 Speaker 1: Texas um a a young woman about thirty two years old, 1720 01:40:47,640 --> 01:40:50,080 Speaker 1: and she was trying to get a ride home and 1721 01:40:50,120 --> 01:40:53,000 Speaker 1: she told him to turn off the GPS. And now 1722 01:40:53,040 --> 01:40:55,639 Speaker 1: she forgets that this is the we're in the Uber era. 1723 01:40:55,760 --> 01:40:57,719 Speaker 1: Now you're not in a cab to give the cavy 1724 01:40:57,720 --> 01:40:59,840 Speaker 1: a couple of crinkled up dollars if you throw up 1725 01:40:59,840 --> 01:41:01,760 Speaker 1: in the back or something. You know, people used to 1726 01:41:01,760 --> 01:41:03,920 Speaker 1: do that kind of stuff, and it was the cab 1727 01:41:04,040 --> 01:41:06,720 Speaker 1: driver's problem is a really nasty, stinky thing to do. 1728 01:41:06,840 --> 01:41:09,240 Speaker 1: But now they know you, They've got you. The moment 1729 01:41:09,280 --> 01:41:11,400 Speaker 1: you get in that ubercar, you know your behavior is 1730 01:41:11,560 --> 01:41:17,440 Speaker 1: literally being graded and recorded. And this assistant district attorney 1731 01:41:17,640 --> 01:41:21,599 Speaker 1: down in Dallas forgot that. It seems she had had 1732 01:41:22,360 --> 01:41:26,920 Speaker 1: a few adult beverages. I'm not sure what But I'm 1733 01:41:26,960 --> 01:41:31,840 Speaker 1: guessing maybe some Apple Teeny's and maybe a Cosmo. But 1734 01:41:32,280 --> 01:41:35,160 Speaker 1: she decided to get into it with the driver. She turned. 1735 01:41:35,400 --> 01:41:38,040 Speaker 1: She told him to turn off the GPS and she 1736 01:41:38,040 --> 01:41:42,000 Speaker 1: would give him directions. She got lost, understandably under the 1737 01:41:42,000 --> 01:41:48,080 Speaker 1: situation because she's clearly inebriated. And then this happens, Tyrone, 1738 01:41:49,040 --> 01:41:56,599 Speaker 1: take me home, grow up? Oh my god, this so much. 1739 01:41:58,120 --> 01:42:00,519 Speaker 1: Just take me home, dude.

But she forgot 1782 01:45:08,680 --> 01:45:11,879 Speaker 1: she forgot Buck's rule, which is that technology is changing everything. 1783 01:45:12,200 --> 01:45:15,400 Speaker 1: It's changing everything right now and if you are in 1784 01:45:15,439 --> 01:45:17,080 Speaker 1: an uber and it's one of the reason why I 1785 01:45:17,080 --> 01:45:21,000 Speaker 1: like Uber so much, because you know, there's a lot 1786 01:45:21,200 --> 01:45:25,439 Speaker 1: of middleman transactions in the past, and this will be 1787 01:45:25,520 --> 01:45:28,840 Speaker 1: a part of our conversation in the future about blockchain 1788 01:45:28,920 --> 01:45:32,320 Speaker 1: and bitcoin. A lot of those middleman transactions, whether it's 1789 01:45:32,320 --> 01:45:35,799 Speaker 1: a bank dealing with a realtor, is to create trust 1790 01:45:35,840 --> 01:45:39,800 Speaker 1: and accountability in the transaction, and with something like a 1791 01:45:39,920 --> 01:45:43,640 Speaker 1: rideshare service or any number of things. Now, um, you 1792 01:45:43,680 --> 01:45:46,880 Speaker 1: know you can now get a massage therapist who can 1793 01:45:46,920 --> 01:45:49,200 Speaker 1: come into your home. There's a there's an app. There's 1794 01:45:49,200 --> 01:45:52,439 Speaker 1: literally an app for that. There are personal trainer apps 1795 01:45:52,439 --> 01:45:55,759 Speaker 1: where the and instead of just going through the yellow Pages, 1796 01:45:55,800 --> 01:45:59,720 Speaker 1: are going by word of mouth. You have that verification 1797 01:45:59,760 --> 01:46:04,280 Speaker 1: of someboddy and that validation of them on both sides. Right, 1798 01:46:04,320 --> 01:46:07,200 Speaker 1: that can create trust in the transaction. But that also 1799 01:46:07,240 --> 01:46:11,879 Speaker 1: means that behavior is now recorded, that your words, your actions, 1800 01:46:11,960 --> 01:46:16,640 Speaker 1: your deeds are u scrutinized at a higher level or 1801 01:46:16,720 --> 01:46:19,479 Speaker 1: can be scrutinized at a much higher level. And I 1802 01:46:19,520 --> 01:46:22,640 Speaker 1: will tell you that assistant distc Attorney, her career is 1803 01:46:22,680 --> 01:46:25,559 Speaker 1: never gonna be the same. She was canned after that, 1804 01:46:25,680 --> 01:46:28,559 Speaker 1: she was fired, which what can you imagine? I mean 1805 01:46:28,560 --> 01:46:31,639 Speaker 1: that now they're gonna have her process. She she's gonna 1806 01:46:31,680 --> 01:46:34,360 Speaker 1: be up there like, excuse me, sir, but you know 1807 01:46:34,400 --> 01:46:37,519 Speaker 1: your public drunkenness is unacceptable, you know, I don't. I 1808 01:46:37,520 --> 01:46:42,040 Speaker 1: don't think that the prosecutor can be on video going 1809 01:46:42,240 --> 01:46:44,240 Speaker 1: going off on a guy and and saying that it's 1810 01:46:44,439 --> 01:46:45,800 Speaker 1: first of all, it's like she doesn't even know the 1811 01:46:45,880 --> 01:46:47,800 Speaker 1: law too I mean, I don't care how drunk I've been, 1812 01:46:48,040 --> 01:46:49,800 Speaker 1: I wouldn't think that being in someone's car or they're 1813 01:46:49,800 --> 01:46:51,840 Speaker 1: telling me to get out of the car is kidnapping. 1814 01:46:52,080 --> 01:46:54,760 Speaker 1: She's got that. It might be like abandonment on the 1815 01:46:54,840 --> 01:46:57,599 Speaker 1: highway side, you know, or the sidewalk, which isn't a crime, 1816 01:46:57,640 --> 01:47:00,320 Speaker 1: but it's definitely not kidnapping. So she got fired. But 1817 01:47:00,560 --> 01:47:03,880 Speaker 1: it's my rule, which is that technology now means that 1818 01:47:03,960 --> 01:47:06,680 Speaker 1: every everything is everything is recorded, and that means that 1819 01:47:06,720 --> 01:47:10,479 Speaker 1: our our behavior shifting accordingly. We'll get into some Team 1820 01:47:10,479 --> 01:47:12,240 Speaker 1: Buck Speaks in a minute.

I got all almost weepy there when I 1856 01:49:22,800 --> 01:49:25,160 Speaker 1: heard that your unit's motto was shields hie Uh. To 1857 01:49:25,240 --> 01:49:28,200 Speaker 1: your question about history, Uh, in the New Year, and 1858 01:49:28,280 --> 01:49:31,160 Speaker 1: those who have been long time Team Buck listeners are 1859 01:49:31,160 --> 01:49:34,200 Speaker 1: gonna say, yeah, right, it's happening, guys. In the new Year, 1860 01:49:34,240 --> 01:49:39,000 Speaker 1: there will be a series of separate history podcasts. It 1861 01:49:39,040 --> 01:49:43,400 Speaker 1: will be a separate podcast from the show. And it 1862 01:49:43,520 --> 01:49:46,360 Speaker 1: is happening, I believe either January or February. But it 1863 01:49:46,439 --> 01:49:49,400 Speaker 1: is happening, meaning that the Boss is here, wanted to happen. 1864 01:49:49,840 --> 01:49:52,920 Speaker 1: We've talked about it History Deep Dives. They will be 1865 01:49:53,120 --> 01:49:55,720 Speaker 1: probably in the realm of forty minutes to an hour 1866 01:49:55,800 --> 01:49:59,360 Speaker 1: and episode uh. And it's just gonna be the most 1867 01:49:59,439 --> 01:50:05,000 Speaker 1: fascinating stuff that I find from history, So all different battles, 1868 01:50:05,040 --> 01:50:09,360 Speaker 1: but also just storylines that we should all know. Uh. 1869 01:50:09,400 --> 01:50:11,800 Speaker 1: And and that it'll be within a theme that will 1870 01:50:11,800 --> 01:50:16,040 Speaker 1: be largely cross versus Crescent, so a lot of not 1871 01:50:16,120 --> 01:50:18,680 Speaker 1: just not not history of the Islamic world, but the 1872 01:50:18,720 --> 01:50:23,839 Speaker 1: history of the battles back and forth between Christianity and Islam. 1873 01:50:24,080 --> 01:50:26,640 Speaker 1: And so you can imagine some of the episodes are 1874 01:50:26,640 --> 01:50:28,680 Speaker 1: already up in up in my head, but there will 1875 01:50:28,720 --> 01:50:31,439 Speaker 1: be others as well. So that is coming in the 1876 01:50:31,520 --> 01:50:35,240 Speaker 1: new year. It is happening. It has been decided. So 1877 01:50:35,320 --> 01:50:38,519 Speaker 1: I'm glad you guys enjoy those. Uh alright, we have 1878 01:50:38,560 --> 01:50:40,760 Speaker 1: Sam right again. Hi Buck, I applaud your coverage of 1879 01:50:40,760 --> 01:50:43,160 Speaker 1: the Menendez story. I think you've been one of the 1880 01:50:43,160 --> 01:50:46,639 Speaker 1: only people in media giving it the depth and reporting 1881 01:50:46,680 --> 01:50:49,559 Speaker 1: it deserves. One interesting aspect of the cases I don't 1882 01:50:49,560 --> 01:50:51,599 Speaker 1: think even you have mentioned is how much more serious 1883 01:50:51,640 --> 01:50:54,080 Speaker 1: everything got for him in the media and among other 1884 01:50:54,120 --> 01:50:58,360 Speaker 1: Democrats once Menendez came out against the Iran deal. Even 1885 01:50:58,400 --> 01:51:00,479 Speaker 1: just looking at the dates on the Google ser results 1886 01:51:00,479 --> 01:51:04,160 Speaker 1: creates an interesting timeline. I'm also wondering how many other 1887 01:51:04,320 --> 01:51:09,360 Speaker 1: members of UH Team Buck Israel. Maybe they could right 1888 01:51:09,600 --> 01:51:12,720 Speaker 1: into Team Buck Speaks. I'd love to put together a 1889 01:51:12,720 --> 01:51:16,200 Speaker 1: Facebook group and maybe even organize Alive listening get together. 1890 01:51:16,479 --> 01:51:17,760 Speaker 1: Might be hard to get people to come out at 1891 01:51:17,800 --> 01:51:20,120 Speaker 1: one am, but maybe if we serve gluten free pizza, 1892 01:51:20,280 --> 01:51:23,880 Speaker 1: dark chocolate and frothy latte's. It will happen. Shields High 1893 01:51:24,160 --> 01:51:26,960 Speaker 1: from Sam Will Sam. I know we have some folks 1894 01:51:27,080 --> 01:51:29,320 Speaker 1: who are Team Bucket Israel who listened to the show 1895 01:51:30,040 --> 01:51:32,920 Speaker 1: via the internet, either on bucks Exton dot com or 1896 01:51:32,960 --> 01:51:36,200 Speaker 1: the I Heart app, or by listening to the podcast 1897 01:51:36,280 --> 01:51:40,240 Speaker 1: on iTunes. How many I don't know, so I can't 1898 01:51:40,280 --> 01:51:42,360 Speaker 1: give you an exact figure, but there certainly are some 1899 01:51:42,400 --> 01:51:45,120 Speaker 1: because I've heard from them. And if you could get 1900 01:51:45,120 --> 01:51:49,040 Speaker 1: together a Team buck party in Jerusalem or Tel Aviv, 1901 01:51:49,120 --> 01:51:52,120 Speaker 1: that sounds awesome to me. So I wish you the 1902 01:51:52,120 --> 01:51:53,559 Speaker 1: best of luck with that endeavor and let me know 1903 01:51:53,560 --> 01:51:55,599 Speaker 1: if I can help.
