At 2 00:00:22,075 --> 00:00:26,715 Speaker 1: four sixteen pm Eastern daylight time, Friday afternoon, Donald Trump 3 00:00:26,795 --> 00:00:31,595 Speaker 1: threatened witnesses, prosecutors, the entirety of the United States government, 4 00:00:32,195 --> 00:00:36,595 Speaker 1: and everyone who lives here. Trump's pre trial release must 5 00:00:36,675 --> 00:00:41,435 Speaker 1: be immediately revoked by Judge Maxilla APAEDII, and he must 6 00:00:41,475 --> 00:00:45,035 Speaker 1: be detained until the trial begins. If you go after me, 7 00:00:45,675 --> 00:00:48,795 Speaker 1: Trump has written on the Truth social website he owns, 8 00:00:49,355 --> 00:00:56,275 Speaker 1: I'm coming after you. He was told twenty four hours earlier, 9 00:00:56,315 --> 00:00:59,995 Speaker 1: almost to the minute, not to do this, not to threaten, 10 00:01:00,955 --> 00:01:04,835 Speaker 1: not to try to influence, not It was a condition 11 00:01:05,035 --> 00:01:07,915 Speaker 1: of his release without bail. He has now violated it. 12 00:01:08,355 --> 00:01:12,475 Speaker 1: That release must be revoked and revoked immediately. And this madness, 13 00:01:12,755 --> 00:01:15,875 Speaker 1: this endless cycle of Trump getting away with crimes and 14 00:01:15,995 --> 00:01:21,035 Speaker 1: deceit and dishonesty and cheating and fomenting violence, and above 15 00:01:21,195 --> 00:01:26,155 Speaker 1: all else, of threatening people, this endless cycle must end. 16 00:01:26,955 --> 00:01:29,075 Speaker 1: That if it means putting them away without bail and 17 00:01:29,155 --> 00:01:32,515 Speaker 1: arresting every one of his cultists who tries to retaliate 18 00:01:32,715 --> 00:01:35,915 Speaker 1: or to free him or to threaten us, so be 19 00:01:36,035 --> 00:01:40,595 Speaker 1: it anyone else in this nation. In a situation parallel 20 00:01:40,635 --> 00:01:44,675 Speaker 1: to Trump's, who stated in any public forum while out 21 00:01:44,955 --> 00:01:48,595 Speaker 1: on release, if you go after me, I'm coming after 22 00:01:48,675 --> 00:01:54,355 Speaker 1: you would have been in jail before sunset. Trump is 23 00:01:54,475 --> 00:01:57,875 Speaker 1: right about one thing, and one thing only. There are 24 00:01:58,355 --> 00:02:02,915 Speaker 1: two tears of justice in America. One for him, which 25 00:02:02,995 --> 00:02:10,715 Speaker 1: treats this mindless, venomous, grasping, consuming, destroying terrorists with kid gloves, 26 00:02:11,155 --> 00:02:14,595 Speaker 1: as if so doing would somehow end the threat. He 27 00:02:14,675 --> 00:02:18,755 Speaker 1: and his scum represent one tier of justice for Trump, 28 00:02:18,875 --> 00:02:20,715 Speaker 1: in which the rest of us have to walk on 29 00:02:20,835 --> 00:02:24,755 Speaker 1: eggshells for day after day and year after year, and 30 00:02:24,875 --> 00:02:32,475 Speaker 1: another tier for every other American. The hesitant will note 31 00:02:32,555 --> 00:02:35,595 Speaker 1: that in those nine words there are no names mentioned. 32 00:02:38,315 --> 00:02:40,715 Speaker 1: It would have been better for Trump if he had 33 00:02:41,275 --> 00:02:46,595 Speaker 1: mentioned names, because this threat, not being directed at Jack Smith, 34 00:02:47,435 --> 00:02:51,555 Speaker 1: or at Joe Biden, or at Mark Meadows, is thus 35 00:02:51,595 --> 00:02:56,635 Speaker 1: directed at all of them, at every potential witness, at 36 00:02:56,715 --> 00:03:02,475 Speaker 1: every judge, at every prosecutor, at every prosecutor's boss, at 37 00:03:02,515 --> 00:03:07,275 Speaker 1: the attorney general, at the attorney general's boss, the president. 38 00:03:08,155 --> 00:03:12,635 Speaker 1: Because this time Trump has slipped. This is not his 39 00:03:12,795 --> 00:03:17,315 Speaker 1: usual dog whistle for stochastic terrorism on his behalf, one 40 00:03:17,315 --> 00:03:20,675 Speaker 1: of his who will rid me of this meddlesome priest 41 00:03:20,875 --> 00:03:25,115 Speaker 1: posts or statements designed to make somebody else do something 42 00:03:25,275 --> 00:03:27,915 Speaker 1: designed to make one of his cultists say, if I 43 00:03:28,035 --> 00:03:31,795 Speaker 1: try to break into Obama's house, it will please the Master. 44 00:03:33,395 --> 00:03:38,675 Speaker 1: This is a direct threat from him to anybody who 45 00:03:38,715 --> 00:03:43,835 Speaker 1: comes after him, and, in his paranoia addled mind, that 46 00:03:43,995 --> 00:03:48,195 Speaker 1: is not just Smith or Garland or Alvin Bragg or 47 00:03:48,235 --> 00:03:52,875 Speaker 1: Fannie Willis or Judge Chutkin or Judge Opa DII or 48 00:03:52,955 --> 00:03:56,155 Speaker 1: Mike Pence or anyone else whose name is now publicly 49 00:03:56,155 --> 00:04:02,715 Speaker 1: connected to his prosecution. In Trump's diseased mind, anybody who 50 00:04:02,795 --> 00:04:09,835 Speaker 1: comes after him includes me and you. These words were 51 00:04:09,875 --> 00:04:16,235 Speaker 1: spoken at the DC Courthouse Thursday afternoon by Judge Opah DII. Quote, 52 00:04:17,075 --> 00:04:21,355 Speaker 1: mister Trump, I ask you to listen carefully to the conditions. 53 00:04:21,915 --> 00:04:25,515 Speaker 1: Your most important condition of release is that you not 54 00:04:26,035 --> 00:04:32,075 Speaker 1: commit a state, federal, or local offense. If so, your 55 00:04:32,195 --> 00:04:37,835 Speaker 1: release may be revoked. The judge said that twenty four 56 00:04:37,875 --> 00:04:41,755 Speaker 1: hours before he committed new federal offenses. I want to 57 00:04:41,835 --> 00:04:46,115 Speaker 1: remind you it is a crime to intimidate a witness, 58 00:04:46,395 --> 00:04:51,475 Speaker 1: she said, twenty four hours before he intimidated all the witnesses. 59 00:04:52,315 --> 00:04:56,795 Speaker 1: Quote or retaliate against anyone for providing information about your 60 00:04:56,875 --> 00:05:01,515 Speaker 1: case to the prosecution, she said, twenty four hours before 61 00:05:01,555 --> 00:05:05,635 Speaker 1: he retaliated against everyone for providing informa about his case 62 00:05:05,675 --> 00:05:08,755 Speaker 1: to the prosecution. She warned him, it was also a 63 00:05:08,755 --> 00:05:12,955 Speaker 1: crime quote to influence a juror, or threaten or attempt 64 00:05:12,955 --> 00:05:15,955 Speaker 1: to bribe a witness or any other person who may 65 00:05:15,955 --> 00:05:19,635 Speaker 1: have information about your case, twenty four hours before he 66 00:05:19,675 --> 00:05:25,595 Speaker 1: committed the crime of threatening everyone. It is also a crime, 67 00:05:25,795 --> 00:05:34,355 Speaker 1: the judge added, quote to otherwise obstruct the administration of justice, 68 00:05:34,475 --> 00:05:40,235 Speaker 1: before he committed the crime of obstructing the administration of justice. 69 00:05:40,915 --> 00:05:48,115 Speaker 1: Do you understand these warnings? Sir Trump made his head 70 00:05:48,715 --> 00:05:53,275 Speaker 1: nod forward as if he were saying yes. And then 71 00:05:53,275 --> 00:05:57,675 Speaker 1: he went home. And then he waited almost exactly one day, 72 00:05:58,275 --> 00:06:03,875 Speaker 1: and then he began to personally threaten, to personally retaliate, 73 00:06:04,395 --> 00:06:12,115 Speaker 1: to personally intimidate, to personally terrorize everyone involved in the 74 00:06:12,155 --> 00:06:16,915 Speaker 1: case and all of the rest of us who will 75 00:06:16,995 --> 00:06:23,555 Speaker 1: not bow to him. Because Donald John Trump is a terrorist, 76 00:06:24,355 --> 00:06:28,275 Speaker 1: the most dangerous terrorist in this nation today and the 77 00:06:28,315 --> 00:06:32,755 Speaker 1: most dangerous terrorist in this nation's history. It is the 78 00:06:32,875 --> 00:06:38,795 Speaker 1: terrorism of bullying witnesses, of menacing prosecutors, of intimidating judges, 79 00:06:38,955 --> 00:06:43,315 Speaker 1: of threatening presidents, of imperiling every member of this society. 80 00:06:43,795 --> 00:06:49,595 Speaker 1: And it can stop now. The terrorist Trump can be 81 00:06:49,795 --> 00:06:55,515 Speaker 1: stopped now. He was warned, He claimed he understood the warning. 82 00:06:55,835 --> 00:06:59,515 Speaker 1: He spat on the warning. He literally could only stop 83 00:06:59,595 --> 00:07:03,555 Speaker 1: himself for twenty four hours before violating the warning and 84 00:07:03,875 --> 00:07:08,555 Speaker 1: urinating on the American system of justice. It took Trump 85 00:07:08,755 --> 00:07:13,635 Speaker 1: only twenty four hours to revert to terrorism, to the 86 00:07:13,675 --> 00:07:18,315 Speaker 1: threat of violence to achieve political ends, the threat with 87 00:07:18,435 --> 00:07:23,435 Speaker 1: which he has tortured this nation for eight years. It 88 00:07:23,555 --> 00:07:27,355 Speaker 1: is now nearly three years since Senator Mitt Romney issued 89 00:07:27,395 --> 00:07:33,195 Speaker 1: a statement in all caps condemning the quote vile, vituperative, 90 00:07:33,395 --> 00:07:36,435 Speaker 1: hate filled morass that is unbecoming of any free nation, 91 00:07:36,715 --> 00:07:39,995 Speaker 1: and then assailing all of our great political leaders of 92 00:07:40,035 --> 00:07:44,195 Speaker 1: twenty twenty Trump, the Democrats launching blistering attacks.

And when the former Capitol 102 00:08:23,995 --> 00:08:27,915 Speaker 1: police officer Michael Fannone, who helped push them back, compared 103 00:08:27,955 --> 00:08:31,235 Speaker 1: the arraignment of Trump on Thursday to the killing of 104 00:08:31,235 --> 00:08:34,235 Speaker 1: Osama bin Laden and said Trump is a terrorist who 105 00:08:34,235 --> 00:08:38,435 Speaker 1: committed horrific acts against the American people.

Bin Laden killed our friends and relatives and 108 00:08:46,555 --> 00:08:52,715 Speaker 1: ruined thousands of lives. Trump continues to try to kill 109 00:08:53,155 --> 00:08:57,395 Speaker 1: all of free America and ruin all of our lives. 110 00:08:57,915 --> 00:09:02,915 Speaker 1: If you go after me, I'm coming after you.

He waited twenty four 120 00:09:45,675 --> 00:09:51,195 Speaker 1: hours and violated your terms four different ways in just 121 00:09:51,595 --> 00:09:58,435 Speaker 1: nine words.

Seriously, there is no doubt, 161 00:13:09,435 --> 00:13:13,675 Speaker 1: no doubt whatsoever that Smith and maybe even Merrick Garland 162 00:13:13,675 --> 00:13:17,115 Speaker 1: have realized they are working against the clock and that 163 00:13:17,195 --> 00:13:20,355 Speaker 1: democracy is working against the clock, and that it is 164 00:13:20,435 --> 00:13:23,875 Speaker 1: imperative to put him on trial not just before the election, 165 00:13:24,155 --> 00:13:27,515 Speaker 1: but well before the election. That it was intriguing to 166 00:13:27,555 --> 00:13:29,755 Speaker 1: see one of the CNN analysts who has had pretty 167 00:13:29,755 --> 00:13:32,395 Speaker 1: good sources on this, I worked with her at NBC, 168 00:13:32,635 --> 00:13:38,475 Speaker 1: Jamie Gangel, quote her contacts as uniformly identifying the takeaway 169 00:13:38,555 --> 00:13:43,955 Speaker 1: of indictment day as how pared down and concise this 170 00:13:44,195 --> 00:13:47,715 Speaker 1: case against Trump is compared to the now forty counts 171 00:13:47,715 --> 00:13:50,435 Speaker 1: in Florida, and they all took the same guess as 172 00:13:50,515 --> 00:13:53,115 Speaker 1: to why to give the judge and any other judges 173 00:13:53,155 --> 00:13:55,795 Speaker 1: Trump tries to drag in to mess up the timeline. 174 00:13:56,075 --> 00:14:01,755 Speaker 1: Absolutely no excuse to not start this trial asap, maybe 175 00:14:01,795 --> 00:14:05,715 Speaker 1: even before the first of the year. We can have 176 00:14:05,795 --> 00:14:08,995 Speaker 1: no idea if Garland or Smith, or Trump or anybody 177 00:14:09,075 --> 00:14:12,435 Speaker 1: else saw the polling on this by Reuter's ipsos that 178 00:14:12,555 --> 00:14:15,795 Speaker 1: came out yesterday, but it is intriguing, if not conclusive. 179 00:14:16,355 --> 00:14:21,115 Speaker 1: Forty five percent of Republicans say they would not vote 180 00:14:21,115 --> 00:14:23,675 Speaker 1: for Trump if he has been quote convicted of a 181 00:14:23,715 --> 00:14:27,915 Speaker 1: felony crime by a jury. Forty five percent of Republicans. 182 00:14:28,795 --> 00:14:33,875 Speaker 1: I'll caveat that one they say that now, and two 183 00:14:34,035 --> 00:14:36,875 Speaker 1: they may be saying that now because the assumption on 184 00:14:36,915 --> 00:14:40,115 Speaker 1: the right is that Trump canstall all these trials indefinitely. 185 00:14:40,795 --> 00:14:43,595 Speaker 1: I really wonder if the number would look different if 186 00:14:43,635 --> 00:14:48,075 Speaker 1: the polling was done after this Justice Express docket had 187 00:14:48,115 --> 00:14:51,955 Speaker 1: been released. There was considerable reporting from inside the Prettyman 188 00:14:52,035 --> 00:14:55,835 Speaker 1: Courthouse that Trump looked really honked off about something yesterday, 189 00:14:55,955 --> 00:14:59,515 Speaker 1: especially compared to his demeanor at the Florida arraignment. And 190 00:14:59,635 --> 00:15:02,915 Speaker 1: a really good guess would be this the court dates 191 00:15:03,435 --> 00:15:09,275 Speaker 1: the SpaceX of sentencing. That was the substantial headline, the 192 00:15:09,315 --> 00:15:14,835 Speaker 1: symbolic one. That photo of Trump at the airport for 193 00:15:14,955 --> 00:15:20,355 Speaker 1: the return flight to Bedminster, New York, times alone, getting 194 00:15:20,355 --> 00:15:26,555 Speaker 1: out of just another suv, looking down carrying his own umbrella, 195 00:15:27,035 --> 00:15:30,675 Speaker 1: with a stunned expression on his saggy face and looking 196 00:15:30,835 --> 00:15:36,235 Speaker 1: like a sack of wet spit, and his near incoherence 197 00:15:36,595 --> 00:15:42,115 Speaker 1: in his brief statement unable to focus on himself for 198 00:15:42,235 --> 00:15:45,835 Speaker 1: the first time in his life, and instead going off 199 00:15:46,275 --> 00:15:51,875 Speaker 1: on worldwide television about how horrible the graffiti was in Washington, 200 00:15:52,715 --> 00:15:56,155 Speaker 1: and knowing he had blown it, suddenly remembering he was 201 00:15:56,195 --> 00:15:59,795 Speaker 1: supposed to say, this is a persecution of a political opponent. 202 00:16:00,355 --> 00:16:04,555 Speaker 1: This was never supposed to happen to America, by which, 203 00:16:04,675 --> 00:16:06,155 Speaker 1: of course he meant this was never supposed to happen 204 00:16:06,195 --> 00:16:10,035 Speaker 1: to him in America because he ran on persecuting his 205 00:16:10,075 --> 00:16:13,035 Speaker 1: political opponent. In twenty sixteen, he told Hillary Clinton to 206 00:16:13,115 --> 00:16:15,275 Speaker 1: her face at a debate that he would put her 207 00:16:15,315 --> 00:16:17,835 Speaker 1: in prison, and then as president, he tried to get 208 00:16:17,875 --> 00:16:21,075 Speaker 1: the president of Ukraine to fabricate evidence with which to 209 00:16:21,155 --> 00:16:25,275 Speaker 1: persecute Joe Biden, something his goblins on Capitol Hill like 210 00:16:25,355 --> 00:16:27,635 Speaker 1: Jamie Comer and Kevin McCarthy are still trying to do. 211 00:16:28,835 --> 00:16:31,995 Speaker 1: And we're supposed to forget that. And for once, with 212 00:16:32,115 --> 00:16:35,675 Speaker 1: cameras rolling, Trump could not pull off his only trick 213 00:16:36,555 --> 00:16:40,435 Speaker 1: being martyred Trump or fearless Trump or vengeful Trump or 214 00:16:40,475 --> 00:16:47,115 Speaker 1: something Trump. He came off as damp, limp chump Trump. 215 00:16:48,955 --> 00:16:53,755 Speaker 1: And kudos to CNN and MSNBC, among other networks, for 216 00:16:53,955 --> 00:16:57,235 Speaker 1: cutting away from the live feed from the tarmac as 217 00:16:57,275 --> 00:17:03,275 Speaker 1: dementia Jay started to talk. Somehow, somebody learns something. BBC 218 00:17:03,555 --> 00:17:07,395 Speaker 1: News sadly wereld Why did not they carried that nonsense live. 219 00:17:08,515 --> 00:17:10,675 Speaker 1: On the other hand, CNN also had a reporter in 220 00:17:10,715 --> 00:17:14,955 Speaker 1: a car chasing the Trump motorcade and who were duly 221 00:17:14,995 --> 00:17:17,755 Speaker 1: rewarded with the audio or the video going out on 222 00:17:17,915 --> 00:17:20,995 Speaker 1: every hit from the correspondent and the rest of the 223 00:17:21,035 --> 00:17:23,835 Speaker 1: time they got a shot of the car right ahead 224 00:17:23,835 --> 00:17:29,075 Speaker 1: of them. That Trump also wasn't in notes from inside 225 00:17:29,075 --> 00:17:31,635 Speaker 1: the Prettyman Courthouse. And there are competing reports as to 226 00:17:31,715 --> 00:17:34,755 Speaker 1: who stared Daggers at home, and in fact whether Daggers 227 00:17:34,755 --> 00:17:38,235 Speaker 1: were even stared. While The New York Times insisted Trump 228 00:17:38,355 --> 00:17:41,315 Speaker 1: never made eye contact with Jack Smith's, CNN reported Smith 229 00:17:41,435 --> 00:17:44,875 Speaker 1: stared at Trump or at least won the staring contest. 230 00:17:45,515 --> 00:17:49,115 Speaker 1: ABC reported that quote Trump could be seen staring right 231 00:17:49,195 --> 00:17:52,955 Speaker 1: towards Smith, knocking his clasped hands on the table in 232 00:17:52,995 --> 00:17:56,835 Speaker 1: a tense way. It's not really news, of course, it 233 00:17:56,875 --> 00:17:59,715 Speaker 1: was a tense way. He's a psychopath. They get tents 234 00:17:59,875 --> 00:18:02,475 Speaker 1: when the people who can destroy them are not scared 235 00:18:02,515 --> 00:18:08,875 Speaker 1: away by their loud noises. Also, Trump pleaded not guilty 236 00:18:08,915 --> 00:18:11,995 Speaker 1: in his own voice, was asked to confirm he understood 237 00:18:11,995 --> 00:18:14,235 Speaker 1: he had the right to remain silent, claimed he understood that. 238 00:18:14,275 --> 00:18:18,995 Speaker 1: He doesn't understand that, And probably the only unexpected development 239 00:18:19,035 --> 00:18:21,515 Speaker 1: of the whole day came in the traditional barrage of 240 00:18:21,555 --> 00:18:24,835 Speaker 1: self pitying, self martyring social media posts by Trump in 241 00:18:24,875 --> 00:18:32,155 Speaker 1: which he spelled the word stolen correctly sto just one 242 00:18:32,435 --> 00:18:37,235 Speaker 1: l e M. World financial markets crashed due to the 243 00:18:37,275 --> 00:18:40,315 Speaker 1: resultant uncertainly among investors that there was anything on this 244 00:18:40,435 --> 00:18:46,035 Speaker 1: earth that could still rely on two associated headlines. He 245 00:18:46,115 --> 00:18:49,675 Speaker 1: may be only unindicted co conspirator number two, but he's 246 00:18:49,715 --> 00:18:56,155 Speaker 1: still unindicted sucker number one. John Eastman still doesn't get it. 247 00:18:57,235 --> 00:19:00,955 Speaker 1: As my old friend Steve Bogart's dad said to Mary Astor, 248 00:19:01,795 --> 00:19:07,755 Speaker 1: you're taking the fall. Eastman's lawyer repeats, he's not flipping 249 00:19:08,155 --> 00:19:11,675 Speaker 1: and he's not guilty of anything, and they are sending 250 00:19:11,715 --> 00:19:15,915 Speaker 1: prosecutors a memo. Oh good, another Eastman memo arguing that 251 00:19:15,955 --> 00:19:19,555 Speaker 1: Eastman was acting, quote as an attorney advising a client 252 00:19:19,875 --> 00:19:22,195 Speaker 1: that the advice was lawful and that Eastman should not 253 00:19:22,235 --> 00:19:24,915 Speaker 1: be indicted. Somebody needs to wake them up and remind 254 00:19:24,955 --> 00:19:28,235 Speaker 1: them Trump's argument is that he was listening to that 255 00:19:28,355 --> 00:19:34,315 Speaker 1: advice and that he's not guilty because Eastman is the 256 00:19:34,395 --> 00:19:36,555 Speaker 1: other note. If you were again disappointed by the lack 257 00:19:36,635 --> 00:19:40,755 Speaker 1: of a mug shot of the defendant, good news everyone. 258 00:19:41,715 --> 00:19:44,955 Speaker 1: Fulton County Sheriff Patrick Lebat has told The New York 259 00:19:44,995 --> 00:19:48,675 Speaker 1: Times that if Trump is indicted in Georgia, he would 260 00:19:48,675 --> 00:19:52,355 Speaker 1: get treatment identical to any other suspect being booked. Quote 261 00:19:52,435 --> 00:19:56,075 Speaker 1: unless someone tells me differently, the sheriff said, he plans 262 00:19:56,115 --> 00:20:01,555 Speaker 1: to follow normal practices. We'll have mugshots ready for you. 263 00:20:03,355 --> 00:20:05,595 Speaker 1: Uh can I get one in a SI thirty eight 264 00:20:05,635 --> 00:20:13,475 Speaker 1: by seven hundred and forty four feet big picture. Year 265 00:20:13,475 --> 00:20:16,755 Speaker 1: ago first episode of this series, I suggested that the 266 00:20:16,795 --> 00:20:21,035 Speaker 1: House January sixth Committee obviously served a real time purpose, 267 00:20:21,115 --> 00:20:24,115 Speaker 1: but that ultimately didn't matter even if it had really 268 00:20:24,155 --> 00:20:28,235 Speaker 1: only been created exclusively for an audience of one Merck Garland. 269 00:20:29,035 --> 00:20:33,235 Speaker 1: Sure enough, huge traffic yesterday on air and online about 270 00:20:33,235 --> 00:20:35,475 Speaker 1: the Liz Cheney Committee, which is how it will be remembered. 271 00:20:35,515 --> 00:20:37,595 Speaker 1: Even though she was not the chair. Benny Thompson was. 272 00:20:38,195 --> 00:20:41,035 Speaker 1: All of it was deserved praise for the efforts and 273 00:20:41,115 --> 00:20:43,635 Speaker 1: the straight line that history will draw between what it 274 00:20:43,715 --> 00:20:48,115 Speaker 1: did and yesterday's indictments, and some of it went almost 275 00:20:48,355 --> 00:20:53,275 Speaker 1: shockingly further than that Congressman Brendan Boyle of Philadelphia, who 276 00:20:53,315 --> 00:20:56,115 Speaker 1: has been in the House exactly two hundred and fourteen 277 00:20:56,235 --> 00:21:01,235 Speaker 1: days letter rip quote, thank you, Speaker Pelosi for creating 278 00:21:01,235 --> 00:21:04,395 Speaker 1: the House January sixth committee. If it were just up 279 00:21:04,395 --> 00:21:09,395 Speaker 1: to the week and feckless Merrick Garland and Lisa Monaco 280 00:21:09,875 --> 00:21:15,475 Speaker 1: than today would have never happened. It's only shocking because 281 00:21:15,515 --> 00:21:20,115 Speaker 1: it's true, and that brings up another point. If you're 282 00:21:20,155 --> 00:21:24,995 Speaker 1: not old enough to appreciate this, I apologize. But from 283 00:21:25,035 --> 00:21:28,275 Speaker 1: the day John Glenn went up in Friendship seven when 284 00:21:28,275 --> 00:21:30,715 Speaker 1: I was three, until the night when I was ten 285 00:21:30,755 --> 00:21:33,635 Speaker 1: when Neil Armstrong got Moondust all over that nice clean 286 00:21:33,675 --> 00:21:37,555 Speaker 1: spacesuit of his, there was a building crescendo of excitement 287 00:21:37,635 --> 00:21:41,475 Speaker 1: over the years as we got closer and closer to 288 00:21:41,555 --> 00:21:46,235 Speaker 1: the Moon launch and the landing, and then I just 289 00:21:46,275 --> 00:21:50,075 Speaker 1: had to go look up online who was on the 290 00:21:50,115 --> 00:21:53,475 Speaker 1: mission between Armstrong and Aldron and Collins on Apollo eleven 291 00:21:53,475 --> 00:21:55,755 Speaker 1: that landed on the Moon and got out, and Lovell, 292 00:21:55,875 --> 00:22:00,515 Speaker 1: Hayes and Swigert driving home the junk bus that was thirteen. 293 00:22:01,955 --> 00:22:05,835 Speaker 1: I had no memory of Apollo twelve. That deflation of 294 00:22:05,875 --> 00:22:09,155 Speaker 1: the excitement was, by all accounts universal in this country. 295 00:22:09,675 --> 00:22:14,235 Speaker 1: And thus it is sadly with Trump indictments. The silliness 296 00:22:14,235 --> 00:22:17,195 Speaker 1: of the opening of this episode notwithstanding, there was a 297 00:22:17,235 --> 00:22:22,275 Speaker 1: point to it as valuable, essential as yesterday was to 298 00:22:22,355 --> 00:22:25,835 Speaker 1: our declining chances of preserving representative government in this country. 299 00:22:25,835 --> 00:22:30,395 Speaker 1: There was an astounding sense of anti climax. We've seen 300 00:22:30,475 --> 00:22:34,715 Speaker 1: this before. This time there weren't even any interesting looking 301 00:22:34,755 --> 00:22:39,955 Speaker 1: Trump lunatics outside and him, as I said before, Wow, 302 00:22:40,235 --> 00:22:43,475 Speaker 1: way to underdeliver. Donnie got a roll of stamps and 303 00:22:43,555 --> 00:22:47,635 Speaker 1: mail it in. That's because obviously it is time to 304 00:22:47,635 --> 00:22:49,995 Speaker 1: get off the pot and put him in the can. 305 00:22:51,035 --> 00:22:53,835 Speaker 1: I could not be happier that the judges in Washington 306 00:22:53,835 --> 00:22:57,315 Speaker 1: have decided to kick his ask with this high speed calendar. 307 00:22:57,515 --> 00:23:00,155 Speaker 1: But the secret value to the high speed calendar is 308 00:23:00,515 --> 00:23:03,395 Speaker 1: it gives us frequent changes to the narrative and the 309 00:23:03,475 --> 00:23:06,715 Speaker 1: excitement levels to carry us through to the next hearing. 310 00:23:06,795 --> 00:23:09,275 Speaker 1: And we need that as a nation to fight back 311 00:23:09,315 --> 00:23:14,195 Speaker 1: against Trump till the next hearing or maybe the next indictment. Fani, 312 00:23:15,035 --> 00:23:18,995 Speaker 1: maybe the next indictment Jack because as repetitive as some 313 00:23:19,075 --> 00:23:22,635 Speaker 1: of these are as spectacle, we want him so indicted 314 00:23:22,675 --> 00:23:26,635 Speaker 1: that he can't pass gas without violating a court order. 315 00:23:26,715 --> 00:23:34,395 Speaker 1: We want him so indicted. Wait, so indicted, so indicted. 316 00:23:35,675 --> 00:23:41,915 Speaker 1: I feel a song coming on. Oh, Nancy, I'm so. 317 00:23:42,075 --> 00:23:47,995 Speaker 2: Indicted, and I just can't fight it. I'm about to 318 00:23:48,035 --> 00:23:53,035 Speaker 2: go to tail in America likes it. I'm so indicted. 319 00:23:53,955 --> 00:23:58,755 Speaker 3: My DEFENSEI they're tightened, and I know, I know the 320 00:23:58,835 --> 00:24:05,795 Speaker 3: unindicted co conspirators can bite it it. 321 00:24:04,835 --> 00:24:08,515 Speaker 1: Q Nancy Faust. We need to put out an album, 322 00:24:10,115 --> 00:24:14,755 Speaker 1: not of music. I would like to point out that 323 00:24:14,875 --> 00:24:20,035 Speaker 1: in a one two week span, I anchored a presidential 324 00:24:20,075 --> 00:24:27,635 Speaker 1: inauguration and the super Bowl. There are related non Trump 325 00:24:27,675 --> 00:24:30,035 Speaker 1: headlines to duck in here and first on our quick 326 00:24:30,075 --> 00:24:33,635 Speaker 1: trip to Shelbyville and the other America, and the lead 327 00:24:33,715 --> 00:24:36,355 Speaker 1: story last night at the Pretty Good Barometer, that is 328 00:24:36,395 --> 00:24:40,075 Speaker 1: the Washington Examiner, not the Trump indictment, not even the 329 00:24:40,115 --> 00:24:43,395 Speaker 1: Devon Archer transcript, which they seem to have dismissed as 330 00:24:43,435 --> 00:24:49,235 Speaker 1: the dud. It was no this quote. Youngkin would beat 331 00:24:49,315 --> 00:24:54,875 Speaker 1: Biden in Virginia. New poll finds Youngkin would beat Biden 332 00:24:54,995 --> 00:24:57,675 Speaker 1: in Virginia. Newpole finds if that name does not ring 333 00:24:57,715 --> 00:25:01,595 Speaker 1: a bell, Youngkin is the governor of Virginia, who may 334 00:25:01,675 --> 00:25:04,475 Speaker 1: yet step into the GOP race once they send in 335 00:25:04,835 --> 00:25:07,155 Speaker 1: DeSantis's mommy to go get him and bring him home, 336 00:25:08,155 --> 00:25:12,795 Speaker 1: which could be today. Ish quote came out wednesday, I guess, 337 00:25:12,835 --> 00:25:15,995 Speaker 1: but it only started a steamroll yesterday. DeSantis cannot help 338 00:25:16,035 --> 00:25:19,195 Speaker 1: himself and cannot stop himself, and cannot save himself. On 339 00:25:19,235 --> 00:25:21,435 Speaker 1: a tour of New Hampshire, he issued the now standard 340 00:25:21,995 --> 00:25:24,475 Speaker 1: I ensure the woke agenda ends up and then does 341 00:25:24,555 --> 00:25:27,795 Speaker 1: been in history. But then he added something new, And 342 00:25:27,875 --> 00:25:31,035 Speaker 1: apparently this is why they have him keep going back 343 00:25:31,075 --> 00:25:34,595 Speaker 1: to woke, woke, this, woke that, because when he tries 344 00:25:34,635 --> 00:25:39,275 Speaker 1: something else, this happens. As to federal bureaucracy and federal bureaucrats, 345 00:25:39,275 --> 00:25:43,355 Speaker 1: Desantus said, quote, We're going to start slitting throats on 346 00:25:43,475 --> 00:25:47,555 Speaker 1: day one. You realize how bad that is, even for 347 00:25:47,795 --> 00:25:53,595 Speaker 1: fascists who relish a good execution metaphor, that's just way 348 00:25:53,635 --> 00:25:58,155 Speaker 1: too gory. That's how bad it is. Be careful, Ronda, 349 00:25:58,475 --> 00:26:00,715 Speaker 1: the throat you slit may just have been your own. 350 00:26:02,315 --> 00:26:06,555 Speaker 1: And lastly, doctor Cornell West pissing away a career of 351 00:26:06,595 --> 00:26:10,595 Speaker 1: service to this nation by running on the let's elect 352 00:26:10,635 --> 00:26:15,355 Speaker 1: Trump Anyway platform turns out to be just a little 353 00:26:15,355 --> 00:26:21,355 Speaker 1: bit behind on the old taxes, just five one hundred 354 00:26:21,395 --> 00:26:26,915 Speaker 1: and forty three thousand dollars. The Daily Beast could get 355 00:26:26,955 --> 00:26:31,715 Speaker 1: no comment out of West or his current campaign manager, 356 00:26:31,835 --> 00:26:41,075 Speaker 1: Jill Stein. No, I'm not kidding. Also of interest here, 357 00:26:41,195 --> 00:26:43,915 Speaker 1: unless you saw this tweet, you will never, never, in 358 00:26:43,955 --> 00:26:48,115 Speaker 1: a million years, correctly guess which conservative tweeted one of 359 00:26:48,155 --> 00:26:54,355 Speaker 1: the most horrifying Freudian slips of all time. Quote, I 360 00:26:54,555 --> 00:27:04,315 Speaker 1: highly encourage you to attend our child trafficking training in Sarasota. God, 361 00:27:05,635 --> 00:27:07,315 Speaker 1: that's next. This is countdown. 362 00:27:09,555 --> 00:27:26,315 Speaker 4: This is countdown with Keith Olberman, my crazy friend. This 363 00:27:27,075 --> 00:27:33,355 Speaker 4: is Sports Senate. Wait, check that not anymore. This is 364 00:27:34,195 --> 00:27:40,115 Speaker 4: countdown with Keith Olberman in sports Man. Are sports people 365 00:27:40,235 --> 00:27:44,515 Speaker 4: owning themselves lately in droves? In one case, it's folks 366 00:27:44,555 --> 00:27:48,715 Speaker 4: from the usual shut up and dribble crowd. Basketball's Orlando Magic, 367 00:27:49,035 --> 00:27:53,555 Speaker 4: owned by members of the infamous Devas family, taking huge 368 00:27:53,595 --> 00:27:57,835 Speaker 4: heat from many quarters because the franchise donated fifty thousand dollars. 369 00:27:58,115 --> 00:28:01,555 Speaker 4: The Czech says, Orlando Magic on it the donation was 370 00:28:01,595 --> 00:28:05,275 Speaker 4: to an arm of the Ron DeSantis campaign, right after 371 00:28:05,435 --> 00:28:12,075 Speaker 4: DeSantis's latest anti LGBTQ actions and contemporaneous with DeSantis's imbecilic 372 00:28:12,115 --> 00:28:18,555 Speaker 4: remarks about how slavery taught the slaves useful skills like blacksmithing. 373 00:28:19,675 --> 00:28:21,755 Speaker 4: The Magic then tried to claim that the team was 374 00:28:21,795 --> 00:28:25,795 Speaker 4: not donating to the campaign, but merely as a business 375 00:28:25,795 --> 00:28:29,995 Speaker 4: to the state of Florida. Then ownership claimed the check 376 00:28:30,115 --> 00:28:33,155 Speaker 4: was written before DeSantis had announced he was running, which 377 00:28:33,195 --> 00:28:36,275 Speaker 4: is a distinction without a difference, but also doesn't line 378 00:28:36,315 --> 00:28:38,955 Speaker 4: up with the date on the check. And now the 379 00:28:39,035 --> 00:28:42,515 Speaker 4: Orlando Magic have been sand blasted by the National Basketball 380 00:28:42,555 --> 00:28:46,875 Speaker 4: Players Association quote. NBA governors, players and personnel have the 381 00:28:46,955 --> 00:28:50,835 Speaker 4: right to express their personal political views, including through donations 382 00:28:50,835 --> 00:28:54,355 Speaker 4: and statements the union rights and a press release. However, 383 00:28:54,435 --> 00:28:57,475 Speaker 4: if contributions are made on behalf of an entire team 384 00:28:58,195 --> 00:29:01,955 Speaker 4: using money earned through the labor of its employees, it 385 00:29:02,075 --> 00:29:05,755 Speaker 4: is incumbent upon the team governors to consider these values 386 00:29:06,155 --> 00:29:10,675 Speaker 4: and perspectives of staff and players. The Magic's donation does 387 00:29:10,715 --> 00:29:14,475 Speaker 4: not represent player support for the recipient unquote, a very 388 00:29:14,675 --> 00:29:19,035 Speaker 4: salient point. What the NBAPA should do now, of course, 389 00:29:19,115 --> 00:29:23,755 Speaker 4: is donate some equal or larger amount to the Biden campaign, 390 00:29:24,155 --> 00:29:27,955 Speaker 4: or one of the groups fighting DeSantis's tyranny in Florida, 391 00:29:28,715 --> 00:29:31,875 Speaker 4: or I don't know, buy fifty thousand dollars worth of 392 00:29:31,915 --> 00:29:35,515 Speaker 4: band books and hit them out to kids or anybody 393 00:29:35,555 --> 00:29:39,475 Speaker 4: really and do it on behalf of the Orlando magic, 394 00:29:39,955 --> 00:29:44,755 Speaker 4: the players. And meanwhile, in golf, with the PGA Tour 395 00:29:44,915 --> 00:29:47,635 Speaker 4: selling out the sport in this country, so the Saudis 396 00:29:47,635 --> 00:29:51,355 Speaker 4: can take it over completely and sportswash it's blood money 397 00:29:51,395 --> 00:29:54,315 Speaker 4: at events like the US Open and the Masters, that 398 00:29:54,355 --> 00:29:58,795 Speaker 4: would be the Prince Muhammad bin Salman Masters. Guess who 399 00:29:58,915 --> 00:30:04,115 Speaker 4: has been added to the PGA Tour policy board. Tiger 400 00:30:04,315 --> 00:30:08,195 Speaker 4: would for Tiger Woods. This is either a chance to 401 00:30:08,275 --> 00:30:14,355 Speaker 4: redeem his increasingly sketchy reputation or him making a complete 402 00:30:14,395 --> 00:30:17,755 Speaker 4: sellout of himself. We will see. Tiger Woods was one 403 00:30:17,755 --> 00:30:20,875 Speaker 4: of the leading opponents of the Saudi Trump Live Golf Tour, 404 00:30:20,915 --> 00:30:23,955 Speaker 4: which bought the PGA in June and which has ever 405 00:30:23,995 --> 00:30:26,995 Speaker 4: since pretended that this is a partnership or a merger 406 00:30:27,595 --> 00:30:32,035 Speaker 4: with Woods. On the PGA board, actual players, actual golfers 407 00:30:32,075 --> 00:30:35,555 Speaker 4: now outnumber the non playing directors six to five, with 408 00:30:35,675 --> 00:30:39,435 Speaker 4: the twelfth member being the PGA's president. What it sounds 409 00:30:39,555 --> 00:30:43,315 Speaker 4: like is Tiger Woods to the rescue, stopping this farce 410 00:30:43,355 --> 00:30:47,355 Speaker 4: which was engineered in large part by the PGA Commissioner J. Monahan. 411 00:30:48,635 --> 00:30:52,155 Speaker 1: However, the first statement by Tiger Woods, in fact his 412 00:30:52,235 --> 00:30:57,035 Speaker 1: first statement since the Saudis bought the PGA, Tiger praised 413 00:30:57,555 --> 00:31:01,475 Speaker 1: Commissioner J. Monahan, quote, we look forward to being at 414 00:31:01,515 --> 00:31:04,595 Speaker 1: the table with him to make the right decisions for 415 00:31:04,595 --> 00:31:08,795 Speaker 1: the future of the game. He has my confidence moving 416 00:31:08,835 --> 00:31:27,715 Speaker 1: forward with these changes. Uh oh, stell ahead on Countdown 417 00:31:27,755 --> 00:31:30,755 Speaker 1: Fridays with Thurber and with the latest arraignment of Donald Trump. 418 00:31:31,435 --> 00:31:34,955 Speaker 1: Collect the whole series.

The greatest man in the world. Coming up first, 422 00:31:50,755 --> 00:31:52,755 Speaker 1: It's time for the daily roundup of the miss grants, 423 00:31:52,795 --> 00:31:57,875 Speaker 1: morons and Dunning Kruger effects specimens who constitute today's worst 424 00:31:57,875 --> 00:32:02,195 Speaker 1: persons in the world.

Bottomless pit of Puss. Levin's iron now is 429 00:32:19,435 --> 00:32:22,715 Speaker 1: directed at Bill barr.
