1 00:00:01,360 --> 00:00:06,680 Speaker 1: Surrender. Joe Biden stabs Israel in the back. Anthony Blincoln 2 00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:11,920 Speaker 1: scolds Israel in its quote lack of credit they say 3 00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:15,440 Speaker 1: to defeat Hamas early on, This is not a joke. 4 00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:18,400 Speaker 1: The US Secretary of State Anthony Blincoln apparently told Israel 5 00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:21,320 Speaker 1: that it lacks credit to conduct the kind of military 6 00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:24,840 Speaker 1: campaign necessary to defeat Hamas, saying that the Biden administration 7 00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:28,600 Speaker 1: would not tolerate, well, not tolerate this. United States of 8 00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:32,560 Speaker 1: America would not tolerate large scale bombing over months in 9 00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:36,960 Speaker 1: southern Gaza. B Lincoln's remarks were leaked to the Israeli press. 10 00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:40,800 Speaker 1: Times of Israel quoted a transcript of his meeting with 11 00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:44,559 Speaker 1: the Israeli War cabinet. B Lincoln said this, apparently, you 12 00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:46,919 Speaker 1: can't operate in southern Gaza the way you did in 13 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:47,479 Speaker 1: the north. 14 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:49,920 Speaker 2: There are two million Palestinians there. 15 00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:52,559 Speaker 1: You need to evacuate fewer people from their homes, be 16 00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 1: more accurate in the attack, not hit un facilities, and 17 00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:01,080 Speaker 1: ensure that there are enough protected areas for civilians, and 18 00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 1: if not, then not to attack where there is a 19 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 1: civilian population. What is your system of operation? Blincoln then 20 00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 1: asked the follow up from the IDF chief was, we 21 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:17,760 Speaker 1: follow a number of principles, proportionality, distinction, and the laws 22 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:21,480 Speaker 1: of war. There were instances where we attacked on the 23 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 1: basis of those principles, and instances where we decided not 24 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 1: to attack because we waited for a better opportunity. Then 25 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:32,039 Speaker 1: the Defense Minister said, the entire Israeli society is united 26 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 1: behind the goal of dismantling Hamas, even if it takes months. 27 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,480 Speaker 1: Blincoln then said, I don't think you have to have 28 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 1: the credit for that. 29 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 2: Wow. 30 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,800 Speaker 1: Anthony Blincoln, normally a weak figure in public, issued as 31 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:48,960 Speaker 1: tough ultimatums in private bring the contradictions in US policy 32 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 1: to a head. 33 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:52,240 Speaker 2: Earlier this week, White House. 34 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:55,760 Speaker 1: Ncial Security spokesman John Kirby said this quote, we don't 35 00:01:55,800 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 1: support these Southern operations unless or until the Israeli can 36 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:04,560 Speaker 1: show that they've accounted for all the internally displaced people 37 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 1: of Gaza. He added that Israel had the right and 38 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:12,400 Speaker 1: responsibility to eliminate Hamas, though he did not explain how 39 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 1: these two priorities could be reconciled. 40 00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:16,639 Speaker 2: Quote. 41 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,960 Speaker 1: It was not clear what Blincoln meant by credit, whether 42 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:23,079 Speaker 1: financial credit from the US or a political credibility on 43 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 1: the world stage. Israel has been saying for weeks that 44 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 1: it expected the fight to destroy Hamas to take months 45 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 1: and perhaps a year. A shorter fight would require more 46 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 1: drastic military measures at odds with a careful approach, Israel 47 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 1: has taken in an effort to avoid civilian casualties where possible. 48 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 1: The administration faces pressure from staff and left wing extremists, 49 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 1: socialists and communist voters in the Democratic Party to shift 50 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 1: away from Israel. So now we know what they're saying 51 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:56,119 Speaker 1: behind the scenes, and it does not match up with 52 00:02:56,160 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 1: what they are saying to the American people. Shocker House 53 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 1: basically is now lying to you when it comes to 54 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:07,640 Speaker 1: the Israeli policy, and Anthony Blincoln is the chief in 55 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 1: charge of that lie. Now you look at all of 56 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 1: this and you think about what happens here, it is disgusting. 57 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 1: There's also a problem here with the package to Israel, 58 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 1: all right, and this package of what is what Israel 59 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:25,679 Speaker 1: is going to get from the United States of America. 60 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 1: Joe Scarborough this morning saying, now, who is bringing in 61 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:33,680 Speaker 1: right wing religious zelots who know nothing about defending Israel 62 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 1: now attacking him and his cabinet, saying that Israel is 63 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 1: somehow a radicalized nation. These are the people that just 64 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 1: got attacked by an actual group of radicalized people in 65 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 1: Hamas who are yelling a la akbar CNN also said 66 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 1: the IDF has intercepted one rocket coming from the Gaza Strip. 67 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:55,840 Speaker 1: That happening this morning. Here's the latest on that. 68 00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 2: What happens next? 69 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 3: The IDF saying that Israel has intercepted one rocket that 70 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 3: was launched from the Gaza Strip. Jerimie now seen in chief, 71 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 3: National security correspondent Alex Marquad and foreign policy analyst Barak Revide. Alex, 72 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 3: first of all, as we're talking about this and wondering 73 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:16,719 Speaker 3: when the truth will end and if it will, and 74 00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,479 Speaker 3: what might happen fifty nine minutes from now or so, 75 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:21,359 Speaker 3: what are we learning right now? 76 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:25,839 Speaker 4: Well, a troubling development for this extremely fragile pause that 77 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 4: has been in place for the past seven days. We've 78 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 4: been waiting all day to hear whether Hamas would present 79 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,280 Speaker 4: Israel with another list of hostages. They planned to at 80 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 4: least tomorrow. Instead, what we are seeing, what we are hearing, 81 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 4: and what we are learning, is that Israel has now 82 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:43,920 Speaker 4: intercepted one rocket that was fired recently, just moments ago 83 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 4: from the Gaza Strip. It was intercepted by Israel's aerial defense. 84 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:53,159 Speaker 4: We've also heard sirens or sirens have been heard in Steroitz, 85 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 4: that is in southern Israel, right near the Gaza Strip. 86 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:59,479 Speaker 4: So we had been waiting to see whether there was 87 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:04,279 Speaker 4: news from any of the parties involved about this hostage 88 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 4: you'd deal for tomorrow. I should note not to downplay it, 89 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,039 Speaker 4: but this is one rocket. We have in the past 90 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 4: seen barrages of rockets, so it's really hard to say. 91 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 1: By the way, I love this here, right, he says, Well, 92 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 1: not to downplay it, but it's just one rocket. I mean, 93 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:20,400 Speaker 1: you know, it's just one rocket that could kill, if 94 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:22,119 Speaker 1: you know, a bunch of people in an apartment building, 95 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:25,279 Speaker 1: or hit a school, or kill innocent people walking street. 96 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,719 Speaker 1: It's just one rocket. You understand what CNN just advocated for. 97 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 1: They just advocated for not taking out a Hamas. As 98 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 1: long as Hamas doesn't shoot a barrage of rockets. They 99 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:37,600 Speaker 1: can just shoot like one at a time all day long. 100 00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:40,159 Speaker 1: And you're just supposed to live in that world. I 101 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 1: want you to imagine being in your house. It's the 102 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:46,400 Speaker 1: best way I know to describe it. Okay, and one 103 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:49,159 Speaker 1: rocket just one, just one rocket, or you know, let's 104 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,599 Speaker 1: change that. Let's just say that every day someone drives 105 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,119 Speaker 1: by your house and just shoots one bullet at your house, 106 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,600 Speaker 1: just one. Well it's only one bullet, right, You're sitting 107 00:05:57,640 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 1: there having your breakfast, and then someone takes a pop 108 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:02,280 Speaker 1: shot at your house, just one bullet. Would you put 109 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 1: up with that crap? Would you sit there and honestly 110 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 1: put up with that? I think most people would say no, 111 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 1: they would not put up with that. That is exactly 112 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 1: now with the White House and what CNN are saying 113 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 1: you should do. As long as it's a lot of rockets, right, 114 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 1: let's put in perspective here, it's just one person shooting 115 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:23,480 Speaker 1: at you, one rocket shooting at you at a time, 116 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 1: so it's not that big of a deal. Again, listen 117 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,280 Speaker 1: to this logic of CNN. 118 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 4: Had been waiting to see whether there was news from 119 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 4: any of the parties involved about this hostage you deal 120 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 4: for tomorrow. I should note not the downplay it, but 121 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 4: this is one rocket. We have in the past seen 122 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 4: barrages of rockets, so it's really hard to say what 123 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:46,280 Speaker 4: is going on here. But we have been pressing our sources. 124 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,839 Speaker 4: I know Barack Ravit is doing the same thing, trying 125 00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:51,720 Speaker 4: to reach out to the Kataris, the Egyptians who've been 126 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:54,280 Speaker 4: mediating with Hamas, the US, who of course have been 127 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,840 Speaker 4: central to this deal, and then Israel as well, to 128 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 4: find out whether they expect this pause to go. 129 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 2: Into an eighth day. 130 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 5: Now. 131 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 4: Last night it looked like things were on the rocks 132 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:07,600 Speaker 4: as well. There were several lists Winnderstand that were put 133 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 4: forward to the Israelis that were rejected because they did 134 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 4: not have enough women and children alive on them. At 135 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,560 Speaker 4: the end, at the very last minute, excuse me, right 136 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 4: before the clock struck twelve Eastern time, which it's about 137 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 4: two and fifty six minutes from now and seven o'clock 138 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 4: in the morning in Israel, there was a list that 139 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 4: was accepted. Eight hostages were released today. There had been 140 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 4: two released the day prior, for a total of ten. 141 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:34,200 Speaker 4: So there is still a chance that Hamas comes through 142 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 4: in the next fifty five minutes with a list that 143 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 4: is acceptable to Israel, but there is also a decent 144 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 4: chance that they don't, at which point Israel has warned 145 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 4: that the fighting would start immediately between Israel and Hamas. 146 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:48,640 Speaker 4: In the Gaza strip, Laura. 147 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,679 Speaker 3: I mean, Brock, you've been working your sources as well 148 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 3: and seeing this. 149 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 2: I mean, this is what you're dealing with now. They 150 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 2: have just moved the goalpost. 151 00:07:56,360 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: That is somehow acceptable behavior to shoot one rocket at 152 00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 1: a time, That that is an acceptable number of rockets 153 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 1: that the Israeli people should just live with. Hey, welcome 154 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 1: to your new neighborhood. Right, imagine buying a house. Now, Look, 155 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,000 Speaker 1: every every other day, every couple of days, there's a 156 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:15,560 Speaker 1: rocket that's gonna be shot your neighborhood. 157 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 2: But it's just one rocket. It's just one. It's just 158 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 2: one rocket. 159 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 1: And then and then a few days later, another rocket, 160 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 1: just one will come at your neighborhood. But it's totally fine. 161 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 1: So enjoy your neighborhood, right, enjoy it, have a great time. 162 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 1: Would you put up with that? Would you buy that, 163 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 1: have them? Would you live in that in that scenario? 164 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,680 Speaker 1: I wouldn't. There's a reason why I don't trust them. 165 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 1: And this is the reason why why would you ever 166 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:44,720 Speaker 1: trust terrasts and those that support terrats, those that advocate 167 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 1: for terrists, those that defend terras. There's no reason I'd 168 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: have spokesman said this this morning on CNN as well 169 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 1: before we conduct any sort of activities in US has 170 00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:59,080 Speaker 1: already fired rockets from southern Guyza this morning, confirming what 171 00:08:59,280 --> 00:08:59,959 Speaker 1: was just said. 172 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 6: Cannot be repeated in the South. Joining US now, IDs 173 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 6: spokesman the Senate. 174 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:06,079 Speaker 7: Colonel Peter Lerner. 175 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:08,959 Speaker 6: Then, Colonel, we appreciate your time this morning. With what 176 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:13,839 Speaker 6: we're seeing right now, should it be characterized that operations 177 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 6: in the South are officially underway? 178 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 7: Good morning, Phil. 179 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 8: Yes. 180 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 7: Indeed, since Hamas decided to cancel the ceasefire by not 181 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 7: releasing women and children, we have been instructed to engage 182 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 7: before we conducted any sort of activities. Hamas had already 183 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:37,560 Speaker 7: fired rockets from southern Gaza before six am this morning 184 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 7: here in Israel. They had been firing and they have 185 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 7: been firing throughout the day at Israel. So yes, we 186 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 7: are engaging. We are seeking out Hamas wherever they are. 187 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 7: We are evacuating people from specific areas that we intend 188 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 7: on operating on. This is the nature of warfare. 189 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:57,080 Speaker 6: On your last point, there have been leaflets that have 190 00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:59,560 Speaker 6: been dropped with a QR code. That code leads to 191 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 6: you also put out a statement in multiple languages. It 192 00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 6: has a civilian evacuation map. 193 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 7: I think we can bring it up. 194 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:07,720 Speaker 6: If we have it, but it basically is numbered zones. 195 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:10,560 Speaker 6: It's kind of parceled out throughout that area. 196 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 2: Two questions. 197 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 6: One, Internet connectivity has been a problem at various points 198 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 6: throughout Gaza. Does that concern you for people actually knowing 199 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,960 Speaker 6: their zones? And second, how are people supposed to understand 200 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 6: what this means? 201 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 7: But of course, if you zoom in on that map, 202 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,679 Speaker 7: if you live in a specific location, you'll know where 203 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:29,680 Speaker 7: you live and you'll know if you're being told to 204 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 7: evacuate from one point to another that you should take 205 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,960 Speaker 7: that advice. Now, this is precisely the idea of getting 206 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 7: people out of harm's way. So if you know that 207 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 7: there is going to be an IDF operation in your area, 208 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 7: you should try and evacuate if you're not a Hamas terrorist. 209 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:48,800 Speaker 7: This is precisely the efforts that we are going to 210 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 7: in order to try and alleviate the difficulties the challenges 211 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:56,440 Speaker 7: that the civilians of Gaza are facing following the war, 212 00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 7: a war that Israel didn't ask for, a war that 213 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:06,439 Speaker 7: Hamas opened and launched on the seventh of October, brutally massacrering, murdering, butchering, beheading, 214 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 7: and raping and abducting so many Israelis on that rutal, 215 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 7: horrific day. So we are now at war with Hamas. 216 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 7: We have resumed our activities this morning, and we are 217 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:21,679 Speaker 7: continuing to operate within the guidelines of the laws of 218 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:26,720 Speaker 7: armed conflict with distinguishing between civilians, non combatants and Hamas. 219 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:30,760 Speaker 6: This has been a significant element of discussions between US 220 00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 6: officials and the counterparts in your government. 221 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 2: There's my question, based on what you're out let me 222 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:37,839 Speaker 2: just go back to this. 223 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:42,080 Speaker 1: Hamas is a terrorist organization, get carried out a nine 224 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:46,559 Speaker 1: to eleven style attack, and now this morning we find 225 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:49,840 Speaker 1: out that the White House is telling Israel you better 226 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 1: back down to that terrorist organization. 227 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 2: Can we just let that set in real quick? 228 00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:59,440 Speaker 1: I mean seriously, can we just I mean just just 229 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:03,600 Speaker 1: think about that real quick. Joe Scarborough said this about 230 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 1: again slandering Israel this morning. Net Ya, who's bringing the 231 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:10,599 Speaker 1: right wing religious zelots into his cabinet? So therefore I 232 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 1: guess they had another reason to abandon him, right absolutely. 233 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 8: So what this says to me is the United States 234 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:20,199 Speaker 8: has a special responsibility the blink, and our Secretary of 235 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 8: State is trying to exercise now to express tough, love, 236 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 8: to be firm, not to let mistakes deepen. You know, 237 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 8: we made mistakes before nine to eleven. We didn't see 238 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 8: it coming, just as Israel made mistakes before October seven. 239 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:39,080 Speaker 8: They didn't see it coming. And we made mistakes after 240 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,679 Speaker 8: we overreacted. We did the wrong things. You know, we 241 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 8: created more enemies than we were killing. That seems to 242 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 8: be happening now. So I think part of what Blincoln 243 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 8: wants to say is we see the mistakes you made before, 244 00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 8: but it's the mistakes you're making now that we want 245 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:56,280 Speaker 8: to prevent. 246 00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 2: Don't overreact, don't do what we did. 247 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 8: That was Biden's mess is when he went there. I'm 248 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 8: sure that Blinkin is saying it again, you know, but 249 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 8: so you know when you say they, I just want 250 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,720 Speaker 8: to say one final thing. In Israel, I met some 251 00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:17,679 Speaker 8: outstanding military commanders. You know, they look like Inspector Cluz 252 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 8: in this report. But don't forget as in the US military, 253 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 8: these are people, very high quality, who are going to 254 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 8: lead Israel out of this mess. 255 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 9: And David, for a year, though David put context to this, 256 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:35,559 Speaker 9: for a year I was hearing from people in Israel, 257 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 9: from fearce defenders and Friends of Israel Net and Yahoo 258 00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:47,440 Speaker 9: is screwing up the cabinet. He's screwing up the military, 259 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:52,600 Speaker 9: he's screwing up the Intel services. He's bringing in right 260 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 9: wing religious zealous who know nothing about defending Israel. 261 00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:58,840 Speaker 4: It's not talking about the military leaders. 262 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:03,679 Speaker 8: You were well, no, no, David, those guys are still those, 263 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,440 Speaker 8: those men and women are still there, right, They were 264 00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 8: just pushed to the side. 265 00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:11,480 Speaker 2: They were Yaho. Think of the woman who. 266 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 8: Kept saying, tells us this is real, this is real. 267 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 2: They're coming. 268 00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:18,440 Speaker 8: That woman is still there doing her job. 269 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,400 Speaker 10: I mean, even since October seventh, these Radis have failed 270 00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:24,080 Speaker 10: to answer the questions what's happening in the West Bank? 271 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 10: Why have we got ourselves into a situation now where 272 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:28,920 Speaker 10: har Mass's approval ratings are rising in the West Bank 273 00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 10: because they are the only group that's managed to get 274 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:34,880 Speaker 10: our prisoners released, because settlers are not being controlled in 275 00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 10: the West Bank, and the number of attacks against Palestinians 276 00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:40,000 Speaker 10: is being picked up. There are things that the Israeli 277 00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 10: government could be doing even now, and it's the American 278 00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:47,120 Speaker 10: government not having success in raining them in in the 279 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:49,000 Speaker 10: West Bank. It doesn't seem so. 280 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:52,800 Speaker 1: See, did you hear that last comment by hers where 281 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 1: she just said, Harmas is the only one that's been 282 00:14:55,720 --> 00:15:00,920 Speaker 1: successful at getting the hostages back. They're the people that 283 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 1: took the hostages, you idiot. They're now giving credit to 284 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:08,240 Speaker 1: the actual hostage takers, saying that they're prove rating in 285 00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:10,600 Speaker 1: guys is going out because these people that took the 286 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 1: hostages are now giving some of the hostages back, and 287 00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 1: they're saying that they're the good guys. Now the same 288 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 1: people that took them are now giving some of them back, 289 00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:23,600 Speaker 1: so they're the good guys. 290 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 2: Help us. 291 00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 1: If this is the world that these liberals want us 292 00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:34,440 Speaker 1: to live in, God help us. Presidential debates they are 293 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 1: something that have become certainly a tradition in this country. 294 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 1: We have our leaders, while they're asking for the biggest jobs, 295 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 1: ask questions of each other and debate one another, and 296 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 1: that's part of how we decide who we think would 297 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 1: be the best for the job. Presidential debates are a tradition, 298 00:15:57,080 --> 00:16:00,400 Speaker 1: an historical tradition that is I think think one of 299 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:04,640 Speaker 1: the best things about this country. I love that our 300 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 1: leaders we actually have these types of conversations. There's a 301 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 1: problem now, presidential debates may go away that is the 302 00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:18,120 Speaker 1: latest that we're now hearing presidential debates quote may not 303 00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 1: happen in twenty twenty four. Here's how we can save 304 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 1: this valuable tradition. Coming from the Hill, the Commission on 305 00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:27,400 Speaker 1: Presidential Debates announced the forthcoming slate of debate sites for 306 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:32,640 Speaker 1: presidential election season twenty twenty four. Since nineteen seventy six, 307 00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:36,080 Speaker 1: there have been consistent televised president of debates the United 308 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:40,680 Speaker 1: States of America. Originally broadcasted and conducted by the League 309 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 1: of Women Voters, Commission on Presidential Debates took over the 310 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 1: sponsorship and organization of the debate in nineteen eighty seven. 311 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 1: The impending election raises the most serious doubts about whether 312 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:55,720 Speaker 1: this televised debate series will even continue. There are a 313 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 1: lot of people say, ah, they you know, hey, it's 314 00:16:57,920 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 1: fun to watch, but is it really going to change 315 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:03,480 Speaker 1: my mind? Maybe we don't need these, which brings me 316 00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 1: back to the article. Both the Democratic National Committee and 317 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,679 Speaker 1: the Republican National Committee have refused to commit to the 318 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,679 Speaker 1: proposed debates of twenty twenty four that are being that 319 00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:18,520 Speaker 1: are to begin in San Marcus, Texas next October. Serious 320 00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:24,240 Speaker 1: problems in the last several c PD events may prevent 321 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 1: the necessary parties from agreeing to debates that are typically 322 00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:32,680 Speaker 1: viewed by fifty to one hundred million Americans. One of 323 00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 1: the most serious problems faced by the CPD events is 324 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:43,160 Speaker 1: the moderators Journalists. Moderators have been chosen for these debates 325 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:47,520 Speaker 1: for decades. The problem with moderators are twofold. First, journalists 326 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 1: have come to occupy a prominent argument of position in 327 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,280 Speaker 1: the debates, and by the way, that was never their intent. 328 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:58,160 Speaker 1: In the nineteen nineties, journalists moderators would occupy roughly five 329 00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 1: percent of the speaking time in debate. In the most 330 00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:05,720 Speaker 1: recent series, moderator Chris Wallace consume more than twenty five 331 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 1: percent of the speaking time. There are no established limits 332 00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:14,800 Speaker 1: for moderator monologues about politics to which candidates are expected 333 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 1: to respond. And there's a second problem. Journalists moderators indicate 334 00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:23,320 Speaker 1: a pattern of favoritism towards the Democratic nominee. Now this 335 00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:25,159 Speaker 1: is coming from the Hill, so I'm glad they're being 336 00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:29,480 Speaker 1: intellectually honest about this and saying that these journalists are 337 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:31,200 Speaker 1: favoring the Democrats. 338 00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 2: At times, the reactionary. 339 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:36,800 Speaker 1: Behaviors of moderators have allowed democratic candidates to receive more 340 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:40,439 Speaker 1: speaking time as they did in most debates prior to 341 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 1: twenty sixteen, or result in the removal of moderators who 342 00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:51,040 Speaker 1: actively coordinated hostile questions for the Republican candidate. Currently, the 343 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:55,439 Speaker 1: RNC Publican National Committee requires that its ultimate nominee for 344 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:59,840 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four refuse to cooperate with or at ten 345 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:05,040 Speaker 1: and the CPD events in twenty twenty four. It is 346 00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 1: important to make plans for solutions and even alternatives to 347 00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:14,399 Speaker 1: the proposals coming from these debate moderators. One of the 348 00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:18,359 Speaker 1: best solutions the Hill Rights for future debates would be 349 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:21,760 Speaker 1: to remove journalists moderators to create a more authentic debate 350 00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:27,919 Speaker 1: event that features the candidates rather than a press conference 351 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:31,639 Speaker 1: constrained by the narratives set by the American journalist community. 352 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 1: Non journalist moderators could simply identify topics with single words 353 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:44,480 Speaker 1: like abortion, inflation, immigration, gaza, government spending, and allow the 354 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:46,680 Speaker 1: extra time to be given to the candidates to explain 355 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:47,679 Speaker 1: their views. 356 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:49,960 Speaker 2: By the way, I love this idea. 357 00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:55,000 Speaker 1: Remember that in nineteen sixty Richard Nixon and John F. 358 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:58,120 Speaker 1: Kennedy had eight minute opening remarks to make their case 359 00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 1: to the public. Responds Times today or two minutes or less. 360 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:09,920 Speaker 1: While journalists vigorously criticize such limited presentations as quote lacking contexts, 361 00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 1: but they set them up to lack that context. It 362 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:18,399 Speaker 1: is increasingly likely that journalists moderators will take more time 363 00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 1: crafting the questions for a candate than the candate will have. 364 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 1: While answering cross examination conducted by debaters rather than moderators 365 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:31,480 Speaker 1: as a common staple of many American debate formats used 366 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:35,160 Speaker 1: by high school and college students. Utilizing this debate practice 367 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:38,399 Speaker 1: and president debates would allow candidates to ask in a 368 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:41,880 Speaker 1: limited time period, such as three minutes, questions of their opponent. 369 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 1: The venues for these debates could be vastly improved from 370 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:49,439 Speaker 1: the current slate of college campuses. Is another thing that 371 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:52,399 Speaker 1: was written in The Hill this morning. The first twenty 372 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:55,359 Speaker 1: twenty four debate, which is typically the most watched debate, 373 00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 1: is to take place at Texas State University. It would 374 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:01,000 Speaker 1: be the first such debate in Texas in the history 375 00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:05,159 Speaker 1: of the series. Texas State is where Democratic President Lyndon B. 376 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:11,880 Speaker 1: Johnson graduated, and as recent news reports indicated, Democrats were 377 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:15,080 Speaker 1: successful in twenty twenty two and flipping key local voting 378 00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:19,520 Speaker 1: precincts from red to blue. The activism of San Marcus 379 00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:22,679 Speaker 1: and the university reverse a trend common to most of 380 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:26,440 Speaker 1: South Texas in twenty twenty, where Hispanic voters are voting 381 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:31,680 Speaker 1: in increasing numbers for Republicans. Instead of the highly partisan campuses, 382 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:36,159 Speaker 1: debates could be conducted at more than a dozen presidential 383 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:40,639 Speaker 1: sites maintained throughout the US. Those debates could lend Democrat 384 00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 1: and Republican presidential locations such as LBJ and Reagan to 385 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:50,000 Speaker 1: create a stronger bipartisan in pressing impression. There are many 386 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 1: more things that could be done to restore the credibility 387 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:55,800 Speaker 1: improve the quality of president or debates. The article continues, 388 00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:59,639 Speaker 1: These are important steps that need to be considered in 389 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 1: probably acted upon if this important civic tradition is to 390 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:09,520 Speaker 1: continue in twenty twenty four. The Commission on President's Debates 391 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:12,679 Speaker 1: needs to help. Needs help to overcome its past miscues 392 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:18,639 Speaker 1: and carrying out the presidential debates. Ben Vath, PhD is 393 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:21,440 Speaker 1: a Professor of Rhetorican director of Debate and Speech at 394 00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:24,760 Speaker 1: SMU in Dallas. He's the editor of the American Forensic 395 00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:31,360 Speaker 1: Association's flagship journal for debate and speech. Coaches Argumentation and advocacy. 396 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:34,360 Speaker 1: The author is also the co editor of the Lexingon 397 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:38,399 Speaker 1: book series focusing upon political communication. He is the author 398 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 1: of several academic books and book chapters about debate. Now, 399 00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:47,960 Speaker 1: I couldn't agree more with the synopsis on this opinion piece, 400 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 1: and I agree that I think it's time for Republicans 401 00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 1: to look. 402 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 2: And demand some changes here. 403 00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 1: The question is, and if you've got fifty to one 404 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:03,240 Speaker 1: hundred million people that watched the first debate, that's a lot. Okay, 405 00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:06,400 Speaker 1: fifty to one hundred is a lot if that's what 406 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:09,160 Speaker 1: you are doing now. If you've fifty to one hundred 407 00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:14,479 Speaker 1: million people watch this first debate, Republicans, I think clearly 408 00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 1: deserve a better deal, a more fair deal. I'm not 409 00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:22,439 Speaker 1: asking for them to have an advantage. I am asking 410 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:27,560 Speaker 1: them for to get to get a better deal. Representative Santos, 411 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:32,399 Speaker 1: Representative Santos. This morning, there's an expulsion vote. He just 412 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:35,679 Speaker 1: said this on Fox News Channel about his future. Is 413 00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:37,719 Speaker 1: he going to be kicked out of the House of Representatives. 414 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:39,840 Speaker 1: Here's what he had to say on Fox and Friends 415 00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:40,480 Speaker 1: a moment ago. 416 00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 5: All right, and just so final thought, is you expect 417 00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:43,920 Speaker 5: to be expelled today? 418 00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:46,879 Speaker 11: Look like I said, I don't expect, but I do 419 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:49,360 Speaker 11: believe they have the votes. Congressman Lolota said he had 420 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:51,800 Speaker 11: one fifty. He walked it back to one twenty. Look, 421 00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:54,720 Speaker 11: one fifty, one twenty. The difference is they need about 422 00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:57,600 Speaker 11: seventy seven Republicans. If that's the numbers they're dwelling with, 423 00:23:57,760 --> 00:23:58,440 Speaker 11: I think they have it. 424 00:23:58,600 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 2: Well, you're Mike Congressman. 425 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 5: There's going to be a special election if you're expelled today, 426 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:06,160 Speaker 5: and then we'll see then we got another election in November. 427 00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 11: I hope you have a shot out of conservative Brian, 428 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 11: because you won't know what a conservative looks like on 429 00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:11,960 Speaker 11: Long Island once I'm gone. 430 00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:15,160 Speaker 5: Right, although the Long Island is pretty red. Congressman, thanks 431 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:16,680 Speaker 5: so much, and Peter King did have that seat for 432 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:20,080 Speaker 5: a long time. Congressman Santo's for now, best of luck, 433 00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:21,200 Speaker 5: Thank you, sir. 434 00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 1: That'll probably be his last interview on Fox News Channel 435 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:27,919 Speaker 1: Killmate also asking Representative Santos this. 436 00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:31,000 Speaker 5: Georgia as they roll through all the things you said 437 00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 5: and everything about working at City Group, Goldman Sachs being Jewish? 438 00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 2: Have you been doing this your whole life. 439 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 5: Just embellishing and making things up. Is this the first 440 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 5: time you've been forced to pay for. 441 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:44,760 Speaker 2: This, Brian. 442 00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:48,359 Speaker 11: Look, I can go and rehash everything that I've said, 443 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 11: but it's been so wildly documented on all of the 444 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 11: questions you just asked, And the short answer is what 445 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:59,080 Speaker 11: I have not said certain things, but I've done things differently. Absolutely, 446 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:01,119 Speaker 11: I'm an adult and I'm sure enough to acknowledge that. 447 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:03,800 Speaker 11: But to think that I've built my entire life based 448 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:05,800 Speaker 11: on what the media is trying to package over the 449 00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:08,320 Speaker 11: last couple of months is not fair, It is not true, 450 00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:09,320 Speaker 11: and it is dishonest. 451 00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 2: So I have a life. 452 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:13,480 Speaker 11: I have people around me who've been in my life, 453 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:15,920 Speaker 11: my entire life, who are appalled that what the media 454 00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:17,959 Speaker 11: has been doing. So I think that should tell you 455 00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:20,480 Speaker 11: enough of who I am and my character. You don't 456 00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 11: think you brought this on yourself? 457 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:22,680 Speaker 4: Oh? 458 00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 11: Look, in some way, I think we all bring stuff 459 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:25,400 Speaker 11: on ourselves. 460 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:25,720 Speaker 2: Right. 461 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:30,440 Speaker 11: I just acknowledge I bear responsibility. But what has been 462 00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 11: made out of mistakes that I've made in the past, 463 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 11: that I've admitted to on national television on this network 464 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 11: with Tulci Gaberd last December. I dare most members of 465 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 11: Congress have the same courage to come on here and 466 00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:47,159 Speaker 11: tell the entire American public on national television exactly what 467 00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:49,480 Speaker 11: I did, and own up to their shortcomings and be 468 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:51,159 Speaker 11: humble and have the humility to do so. 469 00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:55,440 Speaker 1: By the way, I think this guy's a psycho path 470 00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:58,399 Speaker 1: I think he's a narcissist. On a whole nother level, 471 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:01,080 Speaker 1: I think he's a path, a lot co liar. I 472 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:03,800 Speaker 1: believe that he should be kicked out of Congress, and 473 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 1: I don't want to keep a quote Republican in Congress 474 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,200 Speaker 1: that does what Santos has done, and lied the way 475 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 1: he has and acted the way that he has. 476 00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:15,479 Speaker 2: I think they should expel him. 477 00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:17,760 Speaker 1: I want to be clear about that, because if we 478 00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:21,800 Speaker 1: don't police our own in this way, then we're no 479 00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:25,040 Speaker 1: different than the socialists and communists. On the Democratic side. 480 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:27,439 Speaker 1: There are some that disagree with me saying, you know what, 481 00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:29,399 Speaker 1: we need to vote maybe on some issues, So just 482 00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:31,840 Speaker 1: leave him in there. There's going to be a special election, 483 00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:36,639 Speaker 1: and hopefully the people that voted in Santos will also say, Okay, 484 00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 1: we are going to vote for another candidate that actually 485 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:43,600 Speaker 1: has the values without the amount of lying in scumbaggery 486 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:47,200 Speaker 1: that Santos has put into this seat. I would hope 487 00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 1: they the citizens there look forward to getting rid of 488 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:53,720 Speaker 1: someone that has lied to them so much about who 489 00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:57,800 Speaker 1: they are, lied about their career, lied on virtually every 490 00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:00,159 Speaker 1: aspect of their. 491 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 2: Resume. 492 00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:03,760 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean, this dude just lied on everything, 493 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:05,359 Speaker 1: like on everything. 494 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:06,440 Speaker 2: I want to make that clear. 495 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:10,200 Speaker 1: There's nothing that this guy basically said about his life 496 00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:13,960 Speaker 1: and career to get elected that was truthful. This also 497 00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 1: tells you where we are now a journalism, the lack 498 00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:21,440 Speaker 1: of journalistic integrity that we have. How are we allowing 499 00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:24,159 Speaker 1: people to get elected like Santos. I don't care if 500 00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:30,639 Speaker 1: you're a Republican or Democrat that has the backstory here 501 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:34,400 Speaker 1: that he has. It could have easily been fact check. 502 00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:38,720 Speaker 1: But the media doesn't do their job anymore. The media 503 00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:41,119 Speaker 1: used to have a job, as I would describe it, 504 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 1: and their real job was to do the best they 505 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 1: can to look at what the claims are of a candidate, 506 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:53,280 Speaker 1: and then when those claims are made, you fact check 507 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:55,480 Speaker 1: them to see, hey, did he actually work at Goldman Sachs, 508 00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:56,399 Speaker 1: Did he actually do this? 509 00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 2: Did he actually graduate from where he says he graduated from? 510 00:27:59,359 --> 00:27:59,439 Speaker 7: Me? 511 00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:03,800 Speaker 1: This is not hard to fact check. These are very 512 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:08,040 Speaker 1: easy things to fact check. I would also say this 513 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:12,359 Speaker 1: the Republican Party should also do a better job, not 514 00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 1: just the media. 515 00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 2: Right, How did this guy make it through a Republican primary? 516 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 1: How did this guy even get to the point where 517 00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:22,359 Speaker 1: people were voting for him in a general election? If 518 00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:25,359 Speaker 1: the Republican Party was doing their job, they would have 519 00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:26,919 Speaker 1: fact checked to make sure that we didn't have this 520 00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:30,399 Speaker 1: embarrassing moment. And we should be embarrassed by this. This 521 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:35,359 Speaker 1: guy's a joke, a pathological liar.
