1
00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:16,079
Speaker 1: You are entering the freedom hunch. President Trump salutes the

2
00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:21,000
Speaker 1: heroes of immigrations and customs enforcement and customs and Border patrol.

3
00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:24,079
Speaker 1: That's right, Trump is pro law enforcement. What does that

4
00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:26,239
Speaker 1: make the other side? The Democrats will get into a

5
00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:29,560
Speaker 1: story that shows you their mindset. Plus they are still

6
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:33,239
Speaker 1: doubling down on this notion of Brennan's clearance getting taken

7
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:35,960
Speaker 1: away as a big problem. We'll dive into what's really

8
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:38,559
Speaker 1: going on here, including a piece on the Hill dot

9
00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:41,200
Speaker 1: Com written by yours truly that makes sense of all

10
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:43,680
Speaker 1: this stuff and much more coming up on The buck

11
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 1: Sexton Show. This is the buck Sexton Show, where the

12
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:51,040
Speaker 1: mission or mission is to decode what really matters with

13
00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:58,000
Speaker 1: actionable intelligence. Make no mistake America, You're a great American Again.

14
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:08,039
Speaker 1: The buck Sexton Show begins. Set analysts. Today, I sent

15
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 1: a letter to state and local leaders across our nation

16
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:15,760
Speaker 1: asking them to pledge their full support and cooperation with

17
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:21,759
Speaker 1: the officers and agents of ICE and CBC. Sadly in

18
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 1: recent months, incredibly, I have to say, incredibly, a coalition

19
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:32,800
Speaker 1: of open borders extremists, and to me, that means crime.

20
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:35,560
Speaker 1: People that don't mind crime, they mind it when it

21
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:37,679
Speaker 1: happens to them. They don't mind it when they have

22
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 1: to watch it on television. Have waged an unprecedented assault

23
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 1: on American law enforcement, our greatest people, threatening ice and

24
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:52,440
Speaker 1: Border Patrol for performing their duties admirably and for defending

25
00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:58,120
Speaker 1: our country from horrible people and horrible, horrible events and crimes.

26
00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 1: Welcome to the buck Sex and show everybody. He had

27
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 1: President Trump today establishing a very clear difference between his

28
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 1: administration and how the Republican Party views immigrations and customs

29
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 1: enforcement and customs and border patrol essentially law enforcement as

30
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:25,040
Speaker 1: it pertains to US borders and immigration. And this administration

31
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:29,520
Speaker 1: and this president are supportive of those agents and officers.

32
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 1: This administration believes in their mission, which I would note

33
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 1: isn't just an opinion, it's also supported by the law.

34
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:41,919
Speaker 1: These are agents of the state. Usually, Democrats love agents

35
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:43,799
Speaker 1: of the state, especially when they're you know, they're they're

36
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:47,640
Speaker 1: tax collectors, regulators, people like that. You know, people that

37
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:50,240
Speaker 1: come and tell a small business what what they can

38
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 1: and can't do, what they're heating ducts in a certain area.

39
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 1: Democrats love those kinds of government agents. But the people

40
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,240
Speaker 1: who work for our federal government, who are trying to

41
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:04,919
Speaker 1: stop drug smugglers, human traffickers, cartel members, cartel hitmen from

42
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:09,399
Speaker 1: coming in the United States. They have a disdain for them.

43
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 1: Democrats have been throwing them under the bus. And Trump

44
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,320
Speaker 1: today held this rally that I think or held this

45
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:20,840
Speaker 1: meeting rather that really established for all to see what

46
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,000
Speaker 1: that difference is. And I'm glad that we have a

47
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 1: president is finally saying that Democrats are really four open borders.

48
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:28,959
Speaker 1: They won't say it, they don't have the courage of

49
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 1: their convictions to be honest on this, but they do

50
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 1: want open borders. They just don't want that to be

51
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 1: the law. They want that to be the reality. This

52
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,280
Speaker 1: is a question you should ask the next time you

53
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 1: are engaging in this debate. If you do, the next

54
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 1: time you have an opportunity to talk to somebody about

55
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 1: this who feels differently from you on it, asked them, say,

56
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 1: hold on a second, explain the following to me. Why

57
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 1: is it that everything that I hear from Democrats about immigration,

58
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 1: everything I hear from them about illegal immigration specifically, is

59
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 1: that it's good, that it's part of the American dream,

60
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,840
Speaker 1: there's no downside. And then you should ask them, well,

61
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 1: then why shouldn't we just why shouldn't we be open borders.

62
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 1: If you refuse to concede that illegal immigrants oppose a

63
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:18,920
Speaker 1: crime problem, if you refuse to believe it they are

64
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 1: a a drain on public resources, that there's really a

65
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 1: a large scale theft going on, uh from taxpayers to

66
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 1: illegal immigrants. If you refuse all of that, and then

67
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 1: you don't even think it affects the political culture of

68
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 1: this country. Because keep in mind, folks, we have millions

69
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 1: and millions of illegal immigrants that are coming in from

70
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:44,480
Speaker 1: certain countries that are part of a contiguous land mass

71
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,440
Speaker 1: with the United States. This is different. Even national security

72
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 1: analysts will tell you this is not just immigration from

73
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 1: all over the world and people come here. This is

74
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:57,600
Speaker 1: immigration from right next door. And historically this tends not

75
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 1: to work out well. This usually aids to secessionists and

76
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:06,280
Speaker 1: separatist movements. Oh, I know, no one even thinks about that. Now, Well,

77
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 1: give it time, give it a hundred years. What do

78
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 1: we think that will look like. I'm not worried about

79
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:16,919
Speaker 1: people from from Italy or you know, from Rome or

80
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 1: from Shanghai wanting to know, rejoin their former country. But

81
00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:25,159
Speaker 1: I wonder at this rate. What does the future look

82
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,480
Speaker 1: like of the U. S. Mexico border. We assume it

83
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:33,520
Speaker 1: is static, but history tells us it's not. Not even

84
00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 1: ancient history, Okay, not that long ago, go back a

85
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 1: few generations. So there's no honesty from Democrats about this

86
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:44,440
Speaker 1: issue at all. They just pander and do a lot

87
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:49,839
Speaker 1: of virtue signaling dressed up as a sound thinking on policy.

88
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:52,720
Speaker 1: And Trump knows that immigration is a weak point for Democrats.

89
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:56,479
Speaker 1: The American people are not with the left on immigration.

90
00:05:56,480 --> 00:06:02,359
Speaker 1: They're just not playli this new wave of anti borders,

91
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 1: anti law enforcement, extremism and shameful, dangerous. It's horrible in

92
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 1: every way, and it's going to stop. It's going to

93
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 1: stop right now. It's gonna stop today. We slowed it down,

94
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:19,560
Speaker 1: now we're stopping it. We will never surrender our nation

95
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,599
Speaker 1: to the forces of anarchy and chaos and crime. And

96
00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 1: I think we're gonna do very well in the midterms.

97
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:28,360
Speaker 1: And this is one of the very big reason. The

98
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:32,160
Speaker 1: fact is people respect law and order and they love

99
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:34,840
Speaker 1: our law enforcement. And I think we're going to have

100
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:37,839
Speaker 1: much more of a red wave than what you're going

101
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 1: to see as a phony blue wave. Blue wave means

102
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:46,520
Speaker 1: crime it means open borders not good. We will not

103
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 1: stand for the vile smears, the hateful attacks, and the

104
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:54,400
Speaker 1: vicious assaults on the courageous men and women of ice

105
00:06:54,560 --> 00:07:00,200
Speaker 1: and border patrol and law enforcement. So the in and

106
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 1: is making a pretty clear case here about what's the

107
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 1: difference in Republicans and Democrats on the border. I think

108
00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 1: it's very important that we all hear it, that we

109
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 1: all know it. But but there's also this story that

110
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 1: broke over the weekend, and I gotta tell you, I

111
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 1: try not to spend too much time um on social

112
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 1: media over the weekends. You know, we all need to

113
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 1: disengage and and step back, right, we all should, We

114
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:29,480
Speaker 1: all should do that. But I saw this story about

115
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 1: about immigrations and customs enforcement on video no less, right,

116
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 1: So there's gonna be there's gonna be video of this

117
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 1: and everybody can see and how they swooped in and

118
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:43,000
Speaker 1: arrested it's so terrible, arrested this man taking his wife

119
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:48,040
Speaker 1: to the hospital to deliver a baby. And we were

120
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 1: supposed to react to this with shock and outrage. Of course,

121
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:57,120
Speaker 1: the heartless immigrations and Customs enforcement agents are out there

122
00:07:57,160 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 1: doing this terrible work of enforcing the law, and they,

123
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 1: you know, they they stopped this man from being there

124
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:05,800
Speaker 1: for the birth of his baby and all this other stuff.

125
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 1: And then by the way, this was picked up, I

126
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 1: was picked up by a lot of major news outlets

127
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 1: all over the place. You know, they're they're all running

128
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 1: with this story, ABC, CNN. And then we find out

129
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 1: some additional details of this. This was in San Bernardino, California,

130
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 1: over the weekend. We find out that sure enough, this

131
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,560
Speaker 1: individual who was arrested that we were supposed to be

132
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:32,960
Speaker 1: deeply concerned about, and we were supposed to really be

133
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 1: worried about, what a terrible injustice, what a tragedy has

134
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 1: befall in this country when you have somebody like this

135
00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:44,880
Speaker 1: arrested on their way to the hospital. No less, it's

136
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 1: just unthinkable, so terrible. But then we find out a

137
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:53,079
Speaker 1: bit more. It turns out this man who they were

138
00:08:53,120 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 1: saying is just unjustly, unjustly grabbed right Joel our Rowna Laura,

139
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:05,079
Speaker 1: thirty six years old. UM He was, according to Immigration

140
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:11,720
Speaker 1: the Customs Enforcement wanted on a warrant for murder. And also,

141
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:16,679
Speaker 1: by the way, his wife, who was pregnant, on the

142
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,560
Speaker 1: way to the hospital to have her fifth child. Uh

143
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,920
Speaker 1: was having a ces arean section, which means that it

144
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 1: was a scheduled procedure, so you know she was gonna

145
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:28,920
Speaker 1: be able to get to the hospital, folks, right, I mean,

146
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 1: this is not It's not like the baby was The

147
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 1: baby was was, you know, happening at the gas station

148
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,520
Speaker 1: where he was arrested. She was on her way to

149
00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:39,360
Speaker 1: hospital for an appointment. They found this guy. They think

150
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:44,200
Speaker 1: he's wanted for murder, and so they arrest him. And

151
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 1: you see how this played out by the way I

152
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:52,559
Speaker 1: saw one journalist One Blue Check journal tweeted out, I

153
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,600
Speaker 1: used arrested a California man on Wednesday when he stopped

154
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,080
Speaker 1: for gas while driving his wife to the hospital for

155
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:00,560
Speaker 1: her C section. She ended up driving yourself to the

156
00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:03,040
Speaker 1: rest the rest of the way, giving birth alone twenty

157
00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:08,080
Speaker 1: three thousand retweets, and then he added this update. I

158
00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:10,640
Speaker 1: said Monday, this man was arrested because of a homicide

159
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,680
Speaker 1: warrant for him in Mexico. I just didn't mention this

160
00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,600
Speaker 1: in its comments to meeting yesterday. His lawyer denized there

161
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:21,440
Speaker 1: are such charges. No details from Ice two forty two retweets.

162
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 1: When I when I saw this earlier today, So over

163
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:27,319
Speaker 1: twenty retweets of oh my gosh, look at this guy's

164
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:30,719
Speaker 1: been grabbed. It so terrible. Ice is so heartless. Two,

165
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:32,840
Speaker 1: it's like, well, actually they thought he was a murderer.

166
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 1: I think she thought this guy was dangerous. Right, murderers

167
00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:38,959
Speaker 1: are dangerous. You want to take them off the street.

168
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:45,200
Speaker 1: And the media narrative very quickly fell apart here, right,

169
00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:47,120
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, that was not really a story

170
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,840
Speaker 1: they were very focused on. But I want to take this.

171
00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:52,960
Speaker 1: Oh there's also this point they make of how I

172
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,560
Speaker 1: said in their initial statement that no one has shield

173
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,640
Speaker 1: You know, if you're here illegally, you can be deported.

174
00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:00,160
Speaker 1: No one shielded from deportation, whether you're on the way

175
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 1: to the hospital or whatever. I mean, if if they

176
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 1: detain you, they detain you. Right by the way, police

177
00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:09,640
Speaker 1: busted into Metaphorts home at six o'clock or five o'clock

178
00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:13,160
Speaker 1: in the morning, right, and police come at very inopportune times.

179
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:15,440
Speaker 1: Years ago, there was a an n S a whistle blowerer,

180
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:17,840
Speaker 1: remember the case. They came in and pulled him out

181
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:20,280
Speaker 1: of the shower with MP five's drawn. They sent in

182
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 1: a swat team to grab that guy. By the way,

183
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:26,520
Speaker 1: you know when he ended up getting a for jail time, nothing,

184
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 1: got probation for a misdemeanor, didn't even he didn't do anything,

185
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:35,000
Speaker 1: released unclassified information that the government didn't like. But that's

186
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 1: a conversation for another time. Yeah, that's right. Law enforcementill

187
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:43,079
Speaker 1: take you at at inconvenient times. They'll do that for citizens.

188
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 1: By the way, they do that for all of us. Right,

189
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,800
Speaker 1: if they have to arrest, if it's if they have

190
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 1: to execute it, arrest, you're getting arrested. There's not this like, oh, well,

191
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:53,520
Speaker 1: you know I'm on the way to get coffee or

192
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:55,600
Speaker 1: you know, I got a doctor's appointment. Can you arrest

193
00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:59,440
Speaker 1: me later. That's not how it works. And what they're

194
00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:03,440
Speaker 1: saying here what Immigrations a Custom Enforcement initially said was well, yeah,

195
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,880
Speaker 1: we're deporting this guy. He's got a deportation order out

196
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 1: on him. And and the media said, oh my gosh,

197
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:10,800
Speaker 1: it's so heartless and terrible. And then we found out

198
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,240
Speaker 1: that there's a murder warrant. And now people are saying, well, no,

199
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:15,000
Speaker 1: there's not a murder world. Well guess what if if

200
00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 1: that was information Ice had, they have to act on it. Right,

201
00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:20,160
Speaker 1: if Mexico has some mess up in their system. It's

202
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:23,240
Speaker 1: not our federal officers faults. They're they're doing their job.

203
00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:24,760
Speaker 1: They think they're taking a murderer off the street. They

204
00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 1: should be praised for this. Then there's one other point,

205
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:29,280
Speaker 1: and this is the biggest one, and this goes right

206
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:32,640
Speaker 1: to the heart of why people really want to hear

207
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 1: from from Trump on this and why his message on

208
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:41,559
Speaker 1: this issue is so very, very important. Why was this

209
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:45,920
Speaker 1: even a national news story that this man was detained

210
00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:49,720
Speaker 1: by Immigrations and Customers Enforcement If he were not an

211
00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:53,480
Speaker 1: illegal alien, which he was right, if you were not

212
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:55,880
Speaker 1: an illegal alien, if he were just a guy wanted

213
00:12:56,000 --> 00:13:00,480
Speaker 1: on an outstanding drug warrant, wanted on an assault charge,

214
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,080
Speaker 1: and he were on his way to the hospital with

215
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:07,400
Speaker 1: his wife, would this have been a news story period?

216
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,480
Speaker 1: I don't mean a national level, front page weekend news story,

217
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,440
Speaker 1: which is what this was treated as. I mean, would

218
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 1: anybody in the media care at all? Well, you know

219
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:21,439
Speaker 1: the answer is no. This then brings me to what

220
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,200
Speaker 1: they really don't want you to think about. But you

221
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:25,400
Speaker 1: already know this is the case. They just try to

222
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:31,040
Speaker 1: skip past this. It's not only that illegal aliens in

223
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:36,560
Speaker 1: this country get special treatment from the media. It's also

224
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:40,280
Speaker 1: that the media expects that illegal aliens will given be

225
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 1: given special legal treatment too, that they shouldn't be held

226
00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:48,000
Speaker 1: responsible the same way that others are for illegal acts,

227
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:50,439
Speaker 1: because they have been put in a very difficult situation,

228
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:53,760
Speaker 1: you know, because law enforcement is hounding them. So the

229
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:57,199
Speaker 1: forgeries they commit, the social Security card for all that

230
00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:59,320
Speaker 1: they commit, all these different things, you know, that's that's

231
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,720
Speaker 1: not their fault. That's our fault, you see, because we've

232
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:05,880
Speaker 1: put them in that situation. The media in this country

233
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:10,120
Speaker 1: and the Democratic Party with them, don't just believe the

234
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:12,520
Speaker 1: legal aliens should be allowed to stay. They think illegal

235
00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:16,440
Speaker 1: aliens in this country should have extra rights over citizens,

236
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 1: and that they deserve more attention and more sympathy. Illegal

237
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:24,880
Speaker 1: aliens are more deserving of sympathy than the media's fellow Americans.

238
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:30,200
Speaker 1: That's what they really believe. Otherwise, how do you explain

239
00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:33,120
Speaker 1: this story? How do you explain that this was treated

240
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 1: as an urgent matter for all of us to spend

241
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 1: so much time on. It doesn't make any sense unless

242
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:40,080
Speaker 1: you put it into that context. Then all of a

243
00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:44,360
Speaker 1: sudden it does eight four four nine to eight to

244
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 1: five eight four four nine, Buck, We've got a lot

245
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:52,680
Speaker 1: on the security clearance uh pol fiasco. Today We're gonna

246
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:56,880
Speaker 1: be also free speech bill maher Jack Dorsey saying that

247
00:14:56,880 --> 00:15:00,880
Speaker 1: Twitter does discriminate in favor of leftist idea pology. I mean,

248
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 1: I got a jam packed show for all of you

249
00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:07,440
Speaker 1: show uh oh. And also the social justice mob dragged

250
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:09,960
Speaker 1: a friend of mine or a former classmate of mine.

251
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:12,360
Speaker 1: I should say, We'll get to that in more coming up.

252
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:24,920
Speaker 1: I want to bring up from five thirty our friends

253
00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:27,400
Speaker 1: at five thirty to put out their first forecast for

254
00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:30,440
Speaker 1: the mid term elections. And they say that Democrats have

255
00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:33,040
Speaker 1: a three and four chance to win control of the House,

256
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 1: Republicans have a one in four chance to keep control

257
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 1: in the House, and Jason, it's a very qualified forecast

258
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:41,840
Speaker 1: right there. They're just saying this is these are probabilities,

259
00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:45,640
Speaker 1: not predictions, uh in in any way. But this corresponds

260
00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 1: to what we're seeing from other experts. There's no red

261
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:52,160
Speaker 1: wave that the president. No, I think that's we're still

262
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:55,040
Speaker 1: thinking on some part. Every factor seems to point that

263
00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 1: Democrats are going to take the House. The president's low

264
00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 1: approval ratings, which are at the point where every president

265
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,280
Speaker 1: has lost the House when name would lost the House

266
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,880
Speaker 1: or lost one of their chapters. That was doubd who

267
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 1: if I played you, he's an ABC analyst. If I

268
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:11,520
Speaker 1: played you as predictions from the Trump election, you would

269
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:14,000
Speaker 1: laugh really hard because everything he said at every point

270
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,440
Speaker 1: of that was pretty much wrong. But the whole panel,

271
00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:20,440
Speaker 1: they've noticed that. They're all very dismissive. I just a

272
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 1: little trip down memory lane based on where the polling

273
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:27,600
Speaker 1: was two years ago. Folks played John only into this night,

274
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 1: where do we stand? This is where we stood coming

275
00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:33,040
Speaker 1: into the night to to two oh four. So clearly

276
00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:35,720
Speaker 1: an advantage for Secretary Clinton. So right now we have

277
00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 1: Hillary is about a seventy five or favorite. We have

278
00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:41,000
Speaker 1: different first past. You can look at Hillary Clinton up

279
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:44,240
Speaker 1: by double nidgets nationally twelve points fifty thirty eight, full

280
00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:47,800
Speaker 1: way race, Clinton leading in Florida, Clinton leading in North Carolina,

281
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:50,880
Speaker 1: Clinton leading in Ohio, Clinton leading in Nevada. I could

282
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:52,920
Speaker 1: go on and on and on, but said, basically, this

283
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:54,680
Speaker 1: is the beginning of the end for Trump. At the

284
00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:56,640
Speaker 1: beginning of the end, the beginning of the ends, is

285
00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:59,160
Speaker 1: probably starting of the beginning of the end for for

286
00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 1: Donald Trump. Mr Trump, to answer your call for political honesty,

287
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:06,440
Speaker 1: I just want to say, you're not going to be president.

288
00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,560
Speaker 1: All right. They're not popping the champagne corks as yet,

289
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:13,840
Speaker 1: but they probably are thinking about how good it might taste. Anderson,

290
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:16,600
Speaker 1: this night is turning out to be a real nailed by.

291
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:19,680
Speaker 1: Donald Trump will carry the state of Florida. Were a

292
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:24,280
Speaker 1: major projection. Right now it's Donald Trump will say, pretty

293
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:29,040
Speaker 1: dramatic change in your forecast. Now, well, it's not about

294
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:32,480
Speaker 1: our forecast. Well, my crystal ball has been shattered into

295
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:36,000
Speaker 1: atoms here because I predicted the exact opposite of what happened. Well,

296
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:38,720
Speaker 1: if the scene here is so different than it was

297
00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:42,240
Speaker 1: a few hours ago, when people were happy and relaxed,

298
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:44,920
Speaker 1: I have been looking around the room and people who

299
00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:49,280
Speaker 1: are stone faced, some of them have been crying. Everybody

300
00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:53,400
Speaker 1: is crying and so and it is the end. Everybody

301
00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:58,200
Speaker 1: is crying. It is a morning moment for for those people. Uh,

302
00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:01,840
Speaker 1: and it is it is woman filled with fear. How

303
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:05,040
Speaker 1: do we explain how this is possible? How did this happen?

304
00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:10,640
Speaker 1: Donald Trump will be the President of the United States

305
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:15,479
Speaker 1: thirty Keep you waiting, complicated business folks. I gotta tell you,

306
00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:17,560
Speaker 1: man that anytime I'm having a bad day, I just

307
00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,720
Speaker 1: need to listen to that, that whole that whole cycle again. There.

308
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:27,920
Speaker 1: It's amazing, isn't it? Election night? Wow? Incredible, incredible stuff.

309
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,119
Speaker 1: It was incredible. Just just remember that. Well, all the

310
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:33,119
Speaker 1: all the smug politicos. I'm not saying they're gonna be wrong.

311
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:36,520
Speaker 1: I'm just saying their smugness has not in any way

312
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 1: gone down since they were incredibly wrong about the last

313
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:44,040
Speaker 1: national election in the Trump era. So we'll see, folks,

314
00:18:44,640 --> 00:19:00,439
Speaker 1: it ain't over until the lady sings. He's holding the

315
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 1: line for America, Buck Sexton, his back. For these people

316
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:07,520
Speaker 1: that want to question why we do what we do.

317
00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:09,800
Speaker 1: The first people need to look in the mirrors Congress.

318
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:12,240
Speaker 1: Congress had had ability to fix us, and they didn't

319
00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:15,080
Speaker 1: fix it. So the fault lines at their feet first.

320
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:18,199
Speaker 1: This is why he's a great president. He talks to

321
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,000
Speaker 1: talk and he walks a walk. I've been with the

322
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:22,199
Speaker 1: President of numerous town hall meetings where he meets with

323
00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:25,240
Speaker 1: the frontline law enforcement folks that the folks that wear

324
00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 1: that keval arvest every day and enforce laws. You know,

325
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 1: he's staying shoulder to shoulder with him and what he's

326
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:33,159
Speaker 1: doing is right for America. What he's doing is right

327
00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:36,119
Speaker 1: for border security. And as far as the political puns

328
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:39,120
Speaker 1: want to continue to vilify ICE officers, I find it.

329
00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:41,560
Speaker 1: I find a un American that you would want to

330
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,920
Speaker 1: attack a law enforcement officer for merely doing their job

331
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:48,359
Speaker 1: enforcing the laws that Congress enacted. I mean, what does

332
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:50,640
Speaker 1: this come to. I mean, I'm glad this is happening.

333
00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:52,800
Speaker 1: I'm glad that Left is finally shown that they want

334
00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:54,760
Speaker 1: open borders. I think it's gonna help. I think it's

335
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:57,240
Speaker 1: gonna help in November. I really do. I totally agree

336
00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:02,560
Speaker 1: with Thomas Holman, their former UH ICE director. He's he's

337
00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:05,240
Speaker 1: completely right. You know, the Democrats are exposing themselves for

338
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:07,840
Speaker 1: who they really are, and that's good. We should know.

339
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:10,040
Speaker 1: I want the American people to know. I want them

340
00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:12,720
Speaker 1: to know that this is what Democrats are really all about.

341
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:16,160
Speaker 1: I want them to know that this is how Democrats

342
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:19,359
Speaker 1: view our customs and border patrol, of you, our immigration

343
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:23,360
Speaker 1: enforcement agents. And I think it might have a real

344
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:25,119
Speaker 1: impact in the mid terms. You know, because because the

345
00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:30,720
Speaker 1: Democrats have have deluded themselves into thinking that the country

346
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:33,119
Speaker 1: is with them on on immigration, they run all these polls.

347
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:35,560
Speaker 1: You know, do you think immigration is good for America,

348
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:37,560
Speaker 1: do you you know? No, no, no, no no, no, that's

349
00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,240
Speaker 1: really an issue here, folks. What is it issue is

350
00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:43,720
Speaker 1: should the laws of this country be enforced? Why is

351
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:45,840
Speaker 1: it that the laws against you? And this goes back

352
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,399
Speaker 1: to how they illegal aliens have special rights in the

353
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 1: eyes of the media. Why should the laws against you

354
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:55,639
Speaker 1: be enforced without exception? Right? Why should Papadopolis be facing

355
00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:57,640
Speaker 1: six months in prison for a lie about a non

356
00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:01,920
Speaker 1: crime but immigrated? Shouldn't offenses are not punished at all?

357
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:06,080
Speaker 1: Explain that to me. I can think of a whole

358
00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:09,359
Speaker 1: a whole bunch of different offenses that have been in

359
00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:13,360
Speaker 1: the media recently. You know, why should why should Manafort

360
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:16,119
Speaker 1: be facing decades in prison for not paying money on

361
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 1: his taxes? Okay? Telling me has to pay the money

362
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:22,080
Speaker 1: and a fine, decades in prison? Oh buck? The law

363
00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:25,119
Speaker 1: is the law? Well, okay, the law is law. Who

364
00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:27,800
Speaker 1: who exactly suffers because Manaford hid this money? By the way,

365
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:31,479
Speaker 1: Michael Cohen is expected to be facing charges any moment now.

366
00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:33,720
Speaker 1: I'm seeing the wire hit just as we're on the show.

367
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:40,520
Speaker 1: Not for Russia collusion, collusion, who's collusion? But for a

368
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:48,200
Speaker 1: tax scheme involving taxis a taxi tax scheme. Okay, Now

369
00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:50,240
Speaker 1: you may say, Bucky, and everyone's gonna pay their taxes.

370
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,520
Speaker 1: I agree, But should should the sanctions really be that severe?

371
00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:55,359
Speaker 1: Should people lose their freedom and go to prison for

372
00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:59,320
Speaker 1: a tax issue? Because and people say me, well, Buck,

373
00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:02,360
Speaker 1: that's the law. All I said, Well, who's really suffered

374
00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:04,000
Speaker 1: because of what they've done? Where is the victim? Or

375
00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:07,040
Speaker 1: the victim is the government? And therefore they said, the

376
00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:11,200
Speaker 1: victim is all of us? But is it really so severe? Well,

377
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:15,800
Speaker 1: what about being in this country illegally accessing federal services,

378
00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:20,399
Speaker 1: illegally engaging in forgery, engaging in document fraud, engaging in

379
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:23,239
Speaker 1: and you know, not filing a tax return and being

380
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,440
Speaker 1: in this country? Oh, that's right. They don't file tax

381
00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 1: returns generally speaking, do they? And if they did, keep

382
00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:30,280
Speaker 1: in mind, a lot of them would be getting payments

383
00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:32,400
Speaker 1: from the government because a lot of illegal aliens don't

384
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 1: make enough money to pay federal income taxes. But those

385
00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:39,920
Speaker 1: laws don't get enforced. The law is the law until

386
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:41,960
Speaker 1: it's not. With Democrats, that's one thing that we've seen,

387
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,399
Speaker 1: and certainly on immigration, and it's because they view it

388
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 1: as a path to permanent power. That's what's It's not

389
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:51,600
Speaker 1: about one election for Democrats. Amnesty and continued inflows of

390
00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:55,359
Speaker 1: illegal aliens from developing in third world countries is all

391
00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:58,000
Speaker 1: about power for the Democrat Party. It's just what it is,

392
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:02,240
Speaker 1: so we might as well call it out. I'm glad

393
00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:05,520
Speaker 1: that former ICE director Homeman is willing to say it.

394
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:08,159
Speaker 1: And he also you notice how how he attacked the

395
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:10,560
Speaker 1: political pundit class to which is something we all should

396
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:13,679
Speaker 1: be very comfortable doing at this point, because they do.

397
00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:15,399
Speaker 1: They run their mouths about this stuff. They act like

398
00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:17,400
Speaker 1: they've got answers and they know they know what really

399
00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:20,720
Speaker 1: should be done. And you know, meanwhile, they're not honest

400
00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:23,919
Speaker 1: about immigration. They don't know anything abou immigration, and they

401
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:26,520
Speaker 1: won't debate the issue publicly. They've got people running around

402
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:31,159
Speaker 1: yelling abolish Ice, Abolish ICE like a bunch of mincompoops,

403
00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:36,800
Speaker 1: including sitting senators Kirsten gila Brand is saying that I

404
00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,959
Speaker 1: should be abolished too. This is a sitting senator who

405
00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:43,399
Speaker 1: wants to eliminate a law enforcement agency that is absolutely

406
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:46,800
Speaker 1: necessary for this country. Well, what are we gonna do.

407
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:48,960
Speaker 1: We're just gonna oh, that's right, We're gonna go open borders,

408
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,080
Speaker 1: and that isn't a that that's an applause line for

409
00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:52,639
Speaker 1: Democrats tells you a lot. But a lot of the

410
00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:56,119
Speaker 1: Democrats applause lines these days give you not just a

411
00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:58,920
Speaker 1: window into their mindset, but really a window into their soul.

412
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:05,080
Speaker 1: The political pundit class Homan clearly has some animus towards them.

413
00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:07,760
Speaker 1: Here is a I want to play this full exchange

414
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:10,399
Speaker 1: for you. This is from MSNBC, which you'll notice. I

415
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:14,840
Speaker 1: tend to lay off MSNBC because everyone knows their left,

416
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:18,159
Speaker 1: their Democrats right. It's a Democrat channel four by and

417
00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:22,560
Speaker 1: of progressives. That's what it is. I think they're wrong

418
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:25,159
Speaker 1: about everything, but at least they're honest about who they

419
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:28,040
Speaker 1: are at some level. At some level, I mean, NBC's

420
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:31,560
Speaker 1: politics really are any different from msnbc s. But maybe

421
00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:34,720
Speaker 1: that's a conversation for another time. CNN I have a

422
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:36,639
Speaker 1: problem with because the whole the whole thing is a fraud.

423
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:40,320
Speaker 1: It's dishonest. It's an anti Trump channel. It's an anti

424
00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:43,120
Speaker 1: Republican channel now as well, because Trump and the Republican

425
00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:47,919
Speaker 1: Party have become one. Uh. But here's a here's a

426
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:56,600
Speaker 1: pretty good example of what passes for analysis. At MSNBC. Again,

427
00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:59,640
Speaker 1: this is the most vocal president, at least in real time,

428
00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:01,879
Speaker 1: that we've had in recent memory. Right, he is the

429
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:05,320
Speaker 1: leader of the free world. No he's not. He's not

430
00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 1: the leader of the free world. But sorry, by default

431
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:10,520
Speaker 1: is the leader of the free worlds leader of the

432
00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:14,159
Speaker 1: free world. But well, he is the most important person

433
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:17,240
Speaker 1: in in the world in politics right now, and he

434
00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:19,800
Speaker 1: is very vocal. And I do agree with you that

435
00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:23,399
Speaker 1: this does express a level of exasperation among his aids.

436
00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:28,600
Speaker 1: Stop for one second, notice how this analyst. You know,

437
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:30,399
Speaker 1: he's not the leader of the free world. This is like,

438
00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:34,119
Speaker 1: he's not my president. Not my president. This is the

439
00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:38,600
Speaker 1: Trumps arrangement delusion. The leader of the free world is

440
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:42,040
Speaker 1: a title that we all give to the President United States. Okay,

441
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:45,320
Speaker 1: Angela Merkel is a no position to lead the free world.

442
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:49,280
Speaker 1: Angela Merkel was your to to borrow from. I think

443
00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:51,040
Speaker 1: it was Ross douth It in the New York Times.

444
00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:54,720
Speaker 1: She was European far right nationalisms woman of the Year.

445
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:58,440
Speaker 1: In her whole experiment of let's bring in a million

446
00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:00,840
Speaker 1: people from the Muslim world who are refugees and see

447
00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:05,040
Speaker 1: what happens did not work out well. In fact, in

448
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:09,880
Speaker 1: a lot of ways, Brexit and trumps um are tied

449
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:15,680
Speaker 1: to the fiasco of mircalism. Corton talk, yeah, Mercanism, it's

450
00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:20,080
Speaker 1: so much fun to talk about ZIMRCA. But this analyst

451
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:22,280
Speaker 1: that MSNBC says that she's the leader of the free

452
00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:24,720
Speaker 1: will you know this is this is part of the

453
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:28,679
Speaker 1: mindset that they are picking another leader over over ours,

454
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:32,200
Speaker 1: that they seem to believe that there are other people

455
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:34,760
Speaker 1: out there, other countries now have stepped in this leadership role.

456
00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:37,159
Speaker 1: That's not true. What is Germany doing to lead the

457
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:40,359
Speaker 1: free world? In what I mean? Germany has got a

458
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:45,159
Speaker 1: lot of problems, by the way, including what it's going

459
00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:48,320
Speaker 1: to do about immigration, including what's going to happen as

460
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:50,920
Speaker 1: a result of some of these some of these policies.

461
00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:52,480
Speaker 1: I mean, let let me give you another example. This

462
00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:56,800
Speaker 1: by the way, um, this is how the Washington Post

463
00:26:56,840 --> 00:27:00,480
Speaker 1: writes about the throw down between this country and Turkey.

464
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:03,679
Speaker 1: Remember the Washington Post is a US paper, folks. This

465
00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:06,760
Speaker 1: is how they frame this issue. Erduan capital Arouan is

466
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:11,080
Speaker 1: of course the president of Turkey. Are Douan capitalizes on

467
00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:14,679
Speaker 1: Trump's effort to break and isolate Turkey and here's how

468
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:16,960
Speaker 1: they write about this quote. When President Trump tried to

469
00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:20,920
Speaker 1: strong arm Turkey into releasing a detained American pastor this month,

470
00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:24,879
Speaker 1: he gambled at a barrage of punishing measures, market rattling

471
00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:28,679
Speaker 1: economic sanctions, and humiliating public rebukes would force President are

472
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:31,920
Speaker 1: to Wan to quickly relent. That has not happened more

473
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:34,200
Speaker 1: than three weeks after the crisis started. The pastor is

474
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,960
Speaker 1: still under house arrest, and are to Wan for the moment,

475
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:40,919
Speaker 1: appears unbowed. Now. I know you can argue that that's

476
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:43,080
Speaker 1: a factual recitation of what's gone on, or it's a

477
00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:47,120
Speaker 1: factually accurate recitation, but that reads very much like yeah,

478
00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:50,800
Speaker 1: aridauan stand up to Trump. To me, that reads like

479
00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:53,679
Speaker 1: they're rooting for a Turkish strong man, very much in

480
00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:55,280
Speaker 1: the mold of Putin, who is, by the way, very

481
00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:58,520
Speaker 1: pro hamass. And if we dug a little deeper, we'd

482
00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:03,080
Speaker 1: find some really unsaved reconnections to the Islamic state. Trust me,

483
00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:06,919
Speaker 1: between the Turkish government and Isis that's already there. But

484
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:11,520
Speaker 1: the Washington Post is rooting for not our president because

485
00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:15,080
Speaker 1: he's not because Trump is not their president, not my president.

486
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:18,280
Speaker 1: I'll never forget those rallies in New York. I walked

487
00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:20,000
Speaker 1: into one by accident. I was trying to get home.

488
00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:24,000
Speaker 1: Not my president, not no, it's like, no, no, inaccurate.

489
00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:26,560
Speaker 1: He is in fact your president. But John, please continue

490
00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:29,320
Speaker 1: with that, with that MSNBC panel, because because it gets

491
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:33,320
Speaker 1: worse your yeah, go ahead, I'm sorry your argument that

492
00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:34,720
Speaker 1: he is not the leader of the free world, because

493
00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:39,800
Speaker 1: he's not. He's a sort of junior player in a

494
00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 1: block of authoritarian country and no, and the people like

495
00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:45,560
Speaker 1: the European Union are no longer looking at him as

496
00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:48,640
Speaker 1: a leader any longer. And I think is right. They

497
00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:51,240
Speaker 1: see he's instead he's like right, he's part of the

498
00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:54,920
Speaker 1: block that includes Vladimir Prutin to Terte, he's you know,

499
00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:57,200
Speaker 1: he's kind of part of a he's part of kind

500
00:28:57,200 --> 00:29:02,680
Speaker 1: of an access that it's it's worse than I mean,

501
00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:04,960
Speaker 1: not that that's not the worst thing that could have said,

502
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,040
Speaker 1: because it's about the worst thing could say about him,

503
00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:10,440
Speaker 1: but not the rounding people up and murdering, murdering them

504
00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:13,160
Speaker 1: without any you know, to process, and they like to

505
00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:18,680
Speaker 1: I don't think you can say that definitively. Did you

506
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:20,040
Speaker 1: did you catch that? I know there's a lot of

507
00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:22,840
Speaker 1: like a lot a lot of you know, chirping over

508
00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:26,640
Speaker 1: each other there, But he would, certainly he would. That

509
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:30,120
Speaker 1: was a paid political analyst on TV saying that the

510
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:32,120
Speaker 1: current president United States would like to round people up

511
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:35,200
Speaker 1: and execute them. And they think that that's both insightful

512
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:39,120
Speaker 1: and funny to say on National TV. I don't remember

513
00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:43,600
Speaker 1: anybody that anyone thought was even remotely intelligence saying that

514
00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:45,800
Speaker 1: about Obama, that Obama was looking around people up and

515
00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:49,320
Speaker 1: execute them. No, nobody said that, because that's stupid, right,

516
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:53,280
Speaker 1: that's stupid. It's reckless, and there's no basis for it.

517
00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 1: But this passes for just kind of a casual Oh yeah,

518
00:29:56,040 --> 00:30:00,160
Speaker 1: of course, you know, casual conversation over at MSNBC. It

519
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:03,400
Speaker 1: passes for just the way the way they talk about

520
00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:05,440
Speaker 1: this this stuff all the time. Noticed they also they

521
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,600
Speaker 1: put Trump in the same category as Dette in the

522
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:13,360
Speaker 1: Philippines and Vladimir Putin based on what because he because

523
00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:16,840
Speaker 1: he pushes back on on media narratives. Our media is biased.

524
00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:19,760
Speaker 1: They're in the tank for Democrats. Okay, that's just reality.

525
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:21,800
Speaker 1: They can cry about it all day, but they're a

526
00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:27,160
Speaker 1: bunch of Democrat wanna be whiners, and we see it

527
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:29,520
Speaker 1: we see it day in and day out, and so

528
00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:31,320
Speaker 1: Trump pushes back, and now we're supposed to think that

529
00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:35,960
Speaker 1: he's some evil dictator because of it. He isn't jailed anyone. Fact.

530
00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:41,200
Speaker 1: Obama was more dangerous to journalism than Trump was by

531
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:46,400
Speaker 1: a mile, But they won't tell you that. Instead they'll

532
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 1: sit there and and sneer and snicker and laugh at

533
00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:54,680
Speaker 1: the notion that Trump he's that they could notice how

534
00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:57,120
Speaker 1: they also they ran out of ways to say how

535
00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:59,440
Speaker 1: bad he is. They couldn't come out and come up

536
00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:02,640
Speaker 1: with a new pejorative for him. You know, Oh, well

537
00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:05,360
Speaker 1: he's he's worse than That's the worst thing you can say.

538
00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 1: But he's not even that bad. I mean, this is

539
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:09,080
Speaker 1: what they do. They try to one up each other.

540
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,080
Speaker 1: You know, this is like a bunch of five year

541
00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:13,920
Speaker 1: olds arguing about, you know, my dad can beat up

542
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:16,400
Speaker 1: your dad. I mean, this is just idiocy on display.

543
00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:23,280
Speaker 1: That's how they do things. Um speaking about MSNBC and

544
00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:30,040
Speaker 1: things not being brilliant over there, uh, and situations being uh,

545
00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:35,040
Speaker 1: let's just say more humorous than intended. This one's amazing, folks.

Speaker 1: a long time. And those of us who grew up

549
00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:44,280
Speaker 1: in New York City know that Al Sharpton is a

550
00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:49,760
Speaker 1: charlatan and a hack and highly unethical, but they give

551
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:51,800
Speaker 1: him a show at MSNBC. Anyway, He's had it for

552
00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:56,360
Speaker 1: a long time and occasionally has prompt trouble. Occasionally has

553
00:31:56,360 --> 00:31:58,480
Speaker 1: prompt trouble. And and this is how this went. Play

554
00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:01,640

Speaker 1: you know, Trump and Amarossa, and he brings in Aretha

556
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:07,720
Speaker 1: Franklin played the clip. You know what they say about payback,

557
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:12,040
Speaker 1: it's a real well you I'm sure you know the

558
00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:15,520
Speaker 1: word I'm thinking of. So, in the words of my

559

566
00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:50,040
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure I knew that song in the third grade.

567
00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:51,760
Speaker 1: I think it might be the song that I knew,

568
00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:54,080
Speaker 1: you know, one of the first songs I could ever

569
00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:55,800
Speaker 1: sing the words to. And I think that's true. Probably

570
00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:58,880
Speaker 1: all of you listening, have you ever heard anyone to

571
00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:01,760
Speaker 1: misspelled that before? Have you ever heard somebody misspelled the

572
00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:04,600
Speaker 1: name of that or the word in that song? R

573
00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 1: E spr c T second to second to R E

574
00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:16,120
Speaker 1: s pr c T. Yeah TV host Everybody informing you

575
00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:19,840
Speaker 1: about politics and life in America. Courtesy of MSNBC. The

576
00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:35,920
Speaker 1: Reverend OW, We'll be right back. I was raped by

577
00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:40,240
Speaker 1: Harvey Weinstein here I can. I was twenty one years old.

578
00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:46,160
Speaker 1: This festival was his hunting ground. Harvey Weinstein will never

579
00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:50,680
Speaker 1: be welcomed her ever again. He will live in disgrace,

580
00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:55,320
Speaker 1: shunned by your film community that once embraced him and

581
00:33:55,520 --> 00:34:00,400
Speaker 1: covered up for his crimes. And even tonight, sitting among you,

582
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:05,000
Speaker 1: there are those who still have to be held accountable

583
00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:10,600
Speaker 1: for their conduct against women, for a behavior that does

584
00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:13,680
Speaker 1: not belong in this industry, does not belong in any

585
00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:18,520
Speaker 1: industry or workplace. You know who you are, but most importantly,

586
00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:21,880
Speaker 1: we know who you are and we're not going to

587
00:34:21,920 --> 00:34:25,880
Speaker 1: allow you to get away with it any longer. So

588
00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:31,920
Speaker 1: that's Asia Argento, who is considered a leader up there

589
00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:34,960
Speaker 1: with Rose McGowan of the Me Too movement, and that

590
00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:38,000
Speaker 1: was her speech at Khan at the Cohn Film Festival

591
00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:41,600
Speaker 1: after the Harvey Weinstein revelations had come out, and they

592
00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:43,840
Speaker 1: said she's she's considered one of the most prominent voices

593
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:47,200
Speaker 1: on the Me too movement about outing sexual harassers and

594
00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:50,680
Speaker 1: getting justice for those who have been sexually assaulted, particularly

595
00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:54,319
Speaker 1: in the in the film and entertainment industry. And she's

596
00:34:54,360 --> 00:35:00,359
Speaker 1: also the girlfriend of uh of Anthony bord Aine who

597
00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:03,040
Speaker 1: killed himself earlier this year. And you just had the

598
00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:06,520
Speaker 1: story break today. I it's tough to know really, uh,

599
00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:11,280
Speaker 1: you know, it's just a shock that a young actor

600
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:14,800
Speaker 1: claims that she paid him off, that Asia Argento paid

601
00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:18,799
Speaker 1: him off because she had sex with him when he

602
00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:22,880
Speaker 1: was underage in the state of California now to California

603
00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:25,719
Speaker 1: has an eighteen year old age of consent. He was seventeen,

604
00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:27,200
Speaker 1: so he was he was close to it, but he

605
00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:31,319
Speaker 1: was under age and that you know, they they had,

606
00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:35,040
Speaker 1: you know, a sexual relationship, and she paid him. According

607
00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:37,320
Speaker 1: to support in the Hollywood Reporter, CNN is on the

608
00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:39,239
Speaker 1: story to a lot of places are reporting on this

609
00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:44,240
Speaker 1: paid him over three hundred thousand dollars for his silence.

610
00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:47,799
Speaker 1: I just I gotta tell you, I did not see

611
00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:52,560
Speaker 1: this one coming, did not see this as a possible

612
00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:56,160
Speaker 1: twist in this whole situation. It doesn't really change anything

613
00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:58,560
Speaker 1: about the Me too movement, but it just goes to

614
00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:02,720
Speaker 1: show you that sometimes the loudest voices on an issue

615
00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:07,000
Speaker 1: are ones that have their own demons that they're hiding. It.

616
00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:09,920
Speaker 1: Very strange, very unsettling situation. I'm want to think more

617
00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:11,680
Speaker 1: about this one. I might have worn it later this week,

618
00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:14,200
Speaker 1: but we got Kim Strasso from the Wall Street Journal

619
00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:16,839
Speaker 1: joining us to talk about Bruce or that's coming up.

620
00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:21,719

621
00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:25,279
Speaker 1: the fastest growing crimes out there. Brace yourselves, because having

622

Speaker 1: hunt down your homes title and use it against you.

628
00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:47,960
Speaker 1: I have seen a demonstration of this process is shockingly easy.

629
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:51,320
Speaker 1: To steal your homes title. And once that happens, oh gosh,

630
00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:53,680
Speaker 1: you're gonna be getting all these bills coming to you

641
00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:51,080
Speaker 1: I think Brusour is a disgrace. I suspect I'll be

642
00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:54,680
Speaker 1: taking it away very quickly. I think that Brussour is

643
00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:57,719
Speaker 1: a disgrace with his wife Nellie. For him to be

644
00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:00,839
Speaker 1: in the Justice Department had to be doing what he did.

645
00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:05,520
Speaker 1: That is a disgrace. That is disqualifying for Mueller, and

646
00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:09,480
Speaker 1: Mr Mueller has a lot of conflicts also directly yourself,

647
00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:13,319
Speaker 1: so you know that Mr Muller is highly conflicted. In fact,

648
00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:17,120
Speaker 1: uh Tomy is like his best friend. I could go

649
00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:21,480
Speaker 1: into conflict after conflict, but sadly Mr Muller is conflicted.

650
00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:24,719
Speaker 1: But let him write his report. We did nothing, there's

651
00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:28,000
Speaker 1: no collusion. But if he was doing an honest report,

652
00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:30,920
Speaker 1: he'd write it on the other side, because when you

653
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:34,279
Speaker 1: look at criminality and you look at problems, take a

654
00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:37,560
Speaker 1: look at what they did, including colluding with the Russias.

655
00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:43,360
Speaker 1: The other side, what was Bruce Or doing? Right? Remember

656
00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:45,799
Speaker 1: Bruce Or was I think number four the Department of

657
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:49,600
Speaker 1: Justice and very much involved in the dossier, Russia collusion

658
00:38:49,680 --> 00:38:52,680
Speaker 1: and all that stuff. His name is popped up a bunch.

659
00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:56,319
Speaker 1: You remember his wife, Nellie Or was actually an employee

660
00:38:56,440 --> 00:39:00,560
Speaker 1: of Fusion GPS, which paid for and then manufactured uh

661
00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:03,560
Speaker 1: the dossier, sent helped pay and send it around. Right,

662
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:06,000
Speaker 1: all this stuff going on. So the big question is

663
00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:08,719
Speaker 1: what was Bruce Or doing? And it is the one

664
00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:11,399
Speaker 1: that our next guest addresses in her latest column. Kim

665
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:13,839
Speaker 1: Strassol is with us now. She's on the Wall Street

666
00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:16,400
Speaker 1: Journal at a chorial board. She's a columnist also the

667
00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:20,080
Speaker 1: author of The Intimidation Game. Kim great to have you on.

668
00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:21,960
Speaker 1: Thank you so much for joining. Uh, I just want

669
00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:24,200
Speaker 1: to pose your question to you. So, what the heck

670
00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:29,880
Speaker 1: was Bruce doing? Hi, Hi Buck, thanks for having me on. Um. Well,

671
00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:33,320
Speaker 1: look here's we know what he's doing. He was funneling

672
00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:38,719
Speaker 1: information from Christopher Steele, the obviously the author of the

673
00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:42,480
Speaker 1: infamous dossier, from Christopher Steel to the FBI. And the

674
00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:45,840
Speaker 1: reason that this matters is that the FBI had already

675
00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:49,839
Speaker 1: terminated Christopher Steele as a confidential human source. He had

676
00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:54,080
Speaker 1: broken all of the FBI's rules by talking to the press,

677
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:56,239
Speaker 1: and so they said, we can no longer work with you.

678
00:39:56,640 --> 00:39:59,560
Speaker 1: And yet we now find that months after that happened,

679
00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:02,719
Speaker 1: Bruce or the senior Member of the Judiciary, is act

680
00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:06,120
Speaker 1: or at the Justice Department, is acting as an intermediary

681
00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:10,640
Speaker 1: and and sending information from Christopher Steele to the FBI.

682
00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:14,600
Speaker 1: And he's doing that even though his wife works for

683
00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:18,879
Speaker 1: the same organization that Christopher Steele does. He obviously has

684
00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:22,080
Speaker 1: a huge conflict of interest. He does not disclose this,

685
00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:24,279
Speaker 1: at least not in his financial forms, and as so

686
00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:27,160
Speaker 1: far as we know, not to his superiors. UM. And

687
00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:31,480
Speaker 1: so that's an issue as well too. Now this would

688
00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:33,480
Speaker 1: seem to me to be a case of Kim Or

689
00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:36,080
Speaker 1: We would already have a lot of answers here. Why

690
00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:38,200
Speaker 1: haven't Why have we heard more about this guy? I mean,

691
00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:41,760
Speaker 1: the conflict of interest just in that his his wife

692
00:40:42,520 --> 00:40:44,680
Speaker 1: was Look, I think we can all assume that he

693
00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:47,560
Speaker 1: was talking to his wife a lot, right, they lived together, uh,

694
00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:50,640
Speaker 1: and and she she helped bring this information to him.

695
00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:53,680
Speaker 1: How can the FBI justifying this or do we just

696
00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:57,120
Speaker 1: not know what the FBI really says about it? Well,

697
00:40:57,160 --> 00:40:59,399
Speaker 1: they haven't even tried to justify it, and I think

698
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:03,200
Speaker 1: because it's unjustifiable, and this is an important point I

699
00:41:03,280 --> 00:41:05,359
Speaker 1: tried to make in the columns it up until now,

700
00:41:05,400 --> 00:41:08,480
Speaker 1: the FBI has continued to insist it did nothing wrong

701
00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:12,879
Speaker 1: during despite you know, everything that we know about what

702
00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:16,160
Speaker 1: they did do about using the dossier, not telling the

703
00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:21,400
Speaker 1: court entirely about the dossier, running informants into a presidential campaign.

704
00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:23,080
Speaker 1: I mean, these are things that I think should be

705
00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:25,160
Speaker 1: very troubling to anyone, no matter what side of the

706
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:28,399
Speaker 1: aisle you're on. But throughout that they've insisted did nothing wrong.

707
00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:32,520
Speaker 1: This clearly is problematic. Um, not just in terms of

708
00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:35,239
Speaker 1: what Mr Orr himself did and the fact that he

709
00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:39,279
Speaker 1: didn't disclose it, um, but that the FBI chose to

710
00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:44,080
Speaker 1: use him because again remember that this informant program or

711
00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:47,239
Speaker 1: source program that they had that Mr Steele was part of,

712
00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:49,279
Speaker 1: that they were using. It's not some willy nilly thing.

713
00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:53,440
Speaker 1: It's got rules, guidelines, is entire manual gathering, you know,

714
00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:57,120
Speaker 1: governing who can be an informant to and a source

715
00:41:57,200 --> 00:41:59,880
Speaker 1: for the FBI, and what they need to do to

716
00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:03,560
Speaker 1: maintain that status, and what the agents handling them need

717
00:42:03,680 --> 00:42:07,520
Speaker 1: to do. Um. And this was all disregarded, and the

718
00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:11,360
Speaker 1: FBI went back to Bruce or uh And and continued

719
00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:15,480
Speaker 1: to obtain information from a source that they had terminated

720
00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:19,120
Speaker 1: for violating their own rules. What would happen here? What

721
00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:22,160
Speaker 1: has to happen, Kim for there to be accountability for

722
00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:24,279
Speaker 1: how this was handled the dj N FBI side. I

723
00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:26,640
Speaker 1: mean I put myself in this category. I think a

724
00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:29,160
Speaker 1: lot of folks feel like we you know, this just

725
00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:32,720
Speaker 1: this is drags on, It drags on, and you know, yes, okay,

726
00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:36,000
Speaker 1: Struck was Struck was fired, McCabe was fired. I mean

727
00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:38,279
Speaker 1: some people have could have been fired. Are we ever

728
00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:41,279
Speaker 1: going to get a comprehensive report on just what they did.

729
00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:44,839
Speaker 1: I mean the president's in power, he should be able

730
00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:48,200
Speaker 1: to direct the executive branch to produce the necessary documents

731
00:42:48,239 --> 00:42:50,520
Speaker 1: give us the information. Is it a function of waiting

732
00:42:50,560 --> 00:42:53,000
Speaker 1: for the Mueller probe to end? I mean, essentially, is

733
00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:55,439
Speaker 1: the are the President's hands tied to try to get

734
00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:57,480
Speaker 1: to the truth here and let the American people know

735
00:42:57,520 --> 00:42:59,840
Speaker 1: what happened, because anything that he does is going to

736
00:42:59,840 --> 00:43:02,279
Speaker 1: be called meddling in the ongoing Mueller probe. What do

737
00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:04,600
Speaker 1: you make of all that? Well, I think we can

738
00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:07,080
Speaker 1: feel pretty confident that we are never going to get

739
00:43:07,120 --> 00:43:10,440
Speaker 1: an internal house cleaning and a report and an admission

740
00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:13,000
Speaker 1: of a problem from within d o J or FBI.

741
00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:16,359
Speaker 1: That is really, to me very disappointing that you do

742
00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:19,320
Speaker 1: have two new leaders there, Rob Rosenstein at the Department

743
00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:22,360
Speaker 1: of Justice and Christopher Ray. Neither of them have shown

744
00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:25,719
Speaker 1: an inkling of interest and saying, look, there is a

745
00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:29,000
Speaker 1: problem here, we are looking into it. This is why

746
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:31,120
Speaker 1: so and so was fired, This is why so and

747
00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:34,280
Speaker 1: so was moved out of their position. Because remember, nearly

748
00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:37,439
Speaker 1: every part of that comy inner circle has now either

749
00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:40,799
Speaker 1: been fired or removed from their jobs or retired. Um.

750
00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:43,120
Speaker 1: That is to me an admission that there was clearly

751
00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:46,600
Speaker 1: a big problem and that internally they recognized it, but

752
00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:49,200
Speaker 1: they have not come clean to the public. So the

753
00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:52,160
Speaker 1: question then, I mean, we at the editorial page of

754
00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:55,759
Speaker 1: the Wall Street Journal have been advocating every chance we

755
00:43:55,880 --> 00:44:01,760
Speaker 1: have that the President uh declassified many of these documents.

756
00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:03,960
Speaker 1: It doesn't have to be a lot. There's a discreete

757
00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:06,480
Speaker 1: a number of them. We even went out and said,

758
00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:09,040
Speaker 1: here are the ones that would provide the most information

759
00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:11,680
Speaker 1: to the American public um and at least to get

760
00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:13,640
Speaker 1: that out there. And then, because I think the only

761
00:44:13,640 --> 00:44:16,520
Speaker 1: other avenue we really have will be to wait for

762
00:44:16,560 --> 00:44:18,959
Speaker 1: the Inspector General's report, but that could be at least

763
00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:22,719
Speaker 1: another year in coming. Kim, I've got a theory I

764
00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:24,240
Speaker 1: want to test out on you and everybody. We're speaking

765
00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:26,880
Speaker 1: of Kim Strasso, obviously of the Wall Street Journal. Her

766
00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:30,120
Speaker 1: pieces what was Bruce or doing? She tries to answer it,

767
00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:33,680
Speaker 1: but the the the short version is wasn't good. Uh So,

768
00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:35,279
Speaker 1: so you should definitely all check that out. But Kim,

769
00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:37,680
Speaker 1: here's my theory. Because people have asked me this, they say,

770
00:44:37,680 --> 00:44:39,920
Speaker 1: how is it that you have some of these individuals

771
00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:43,040
Speaker 1: at FBI, d O J who seemed like and I'm

772
00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:44,600
Speaker 1: not talking about the ones that have already been fired

773
00:44:44,719 --> 00:44:46,920
Speaker 1: or under suspicion, but I mean, you know, you mentioned

774
00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:49,880
Speaker 1: Christopher Ray, for example, FBI director. How is it that

775
00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:52,359
Speaker 1: these guys are also in on it? And I try

776
00:44:52,360 --> 00:44:54,759
Speaker 1: to explain it to people this way. I think that

777
00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:57,600
Speaker 1: if we really knew what happened at the top reaches

778
00:44:57,640 --> 00:44:59,319
Speaker 1: of the d o J and the FBI, I mean,

779
00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:02,440
Speaker 1: if we really without you know, the games and the redactions,

780
00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:05,880
Speaker 1: if the American people found out the truth, they would

781
00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:08,360
Speaker 1: have a very hard time thinking of the FBI the

782
00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:11,520
Speaker 1: d o J in the same way. And so even

783
00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:14,800
Speaker 1: for those who are not necessarily anti Trump or you know,

784
00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:18,400
Speaker 1: they weren't Hillary cronies, but people that are institutionalists that

785
00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:20,400
Speaker 1: have spent a lot of time in those decades, in

786
00:45:20,440 --> 00:45:23,600
Speaker 1: many cases in those organizations, they feel like they have

787
00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:28,240
Speaker 1: a duty to the greater good to protect those institutions

788
00:45:28,640 --> 00:45:31,920
Speaker 1: from the you know, the the ire and the the

789
00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:35,040
Speaker 1: the distrust for generations the American people. What do you

790
00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:38,319
Speaker 1: think about that? I think you've nailed it. This has

791
00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:42,640
Speaker 1: long been my argument too, that these folks are institutionalist,

792
00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:45,680
Speaker 1: and I think part of it is what you describe

793
00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:49,520
Speaker 1: that they feel the need to protect the department or

794
00:45:49,560 --> 00:45:52,880
Speaker 1: agency that they work for, UH to the extent that

795
00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:56,000
Speaker 1: they are willing to overlook and even justify things that

796
00:45:56,040 --> 00:45:59,040
Speaker 1: if they were on the outside, they would not. I

797
00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:02,319
Speaker 1: think too. It's also a bit of an I use

798
00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:06,319
Speaker 1: this word carefully, but but craven nous and that you

799
00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:08,520
Speaker 1: and I both know if you work in an institution,

800
00:46:08,600 --> 00:46:11,840
Speaker 1: you were surrounded by people on all sides that are saying, no,

801
00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:14,520
Speaker 1: what we did was okay, it was okay, it was okay.

802
00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:17,640
Speaker 1: It's very hard to break from that pack to go

803
00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:22,240
Speaker 1: and basically infuriate everybody who works for you and works

804
00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:24,600
Speaker 1: with you and around you. And so I just don't

805
00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:28,320
Speaker 1: think you have the test of leadership there. And remember

806
00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:32,440
Speaker 1: neither Rod Rosenstein nor Christopher Ray were necessarily chosen for

807
00:46:32,520 --> 00:46:34,960
Speaker 1: those reasons. If you look at the rest of the

808
00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:40,239
Speaker 1: Bush Bush the Trump cabinet um, they were chosen as reformers,

809
00:46:40,280 --> 00:46:42,920
Speaker 1: people who were going to come out inside and really

810
00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:46,479
Speaker 1: shake things up. But Rod Rosenstein and Christopher Ray both

811
00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:50,480
Speaker 1: came in under somewhat of a hurried and dress process

812
00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:54,080
Speaker 1: um where they weren't necessarily vetted because they were going

813
00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:57,240
Speaker 1: to clean house they were vetted as a safe choice

814
00:46:57,280 --> 00:46:59,759
Speaker 1: that would be easily confirmable by the Senate in the

815
00:46:59,760 --> 00:47:03,520
Speaker 1: middle of that entire rush that surrounded the whole supposed

816
00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:07,399
Speaker 1: Russia scandal. Kim, just before we let you go here,

817
00:47:08,080 --> 00:47:11,120
Speaker 1: what do you think Mueller's motivation is? I know, I'm

818
00:47:11,160 --> 00:47:12,919
Speaker 1: kind of asking you to look into a man's mind,

819
00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:15,480
Speaker 1: and you know nobody can do that. But do you

820
00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:17,839
Speaker 1: think do you think he's a partisan along the lines

821
00:47:17,880 --> 00:47:20,040
Speaker 1: of some of these others that clearly I mean, anyone

822
00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:22,360
Speaker 1: who tells me that stalker McCabe that they aren't partisans,

823
00:47:22,400 --> 00:47:24,000
Speaker 1: they didn't use their office, I just can't take that

824
00:47:24,080 --> 00:47:26,920
Speaker 1: argument seriously anymore. Do you think Muller just views it

825
00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:30,440
Speaker 1: as he has to almost mechanically go through literally every

826
00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:33,480
Speaker 1: nook and cranny of the investigation, just go through everything

827
00:47:33,520 --> 00:47:36,520
Speaker 1: he can, because that's the only way the American people

828
00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:38,080
Speaker 1: will have faith and assistant or do you think he's

829
00:47:38,120 --> 00:47:41,080
Speaker 1: actually he's anti Trump? I mean, you think this is

830
00:47:41,120 --> 00:47:42,640
Speaker 1: this is a witch hunt. He knows it, and he's

831
00:47:42,640 --> 00:47:46,800
Speaker 1: down for that. I think he's something almost as concerning

832
00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:51,439
Speaker 1: as a partisan. He's a lawyer, and you know, a prosecutor,

833
00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:53,440
Speaker 1: and and look this is one of the problems with

834
00:47:53,480 --> 00:47:56,840
Speaker 1: special counsels is nobody wants to go in and spend

835
00:47:56,840 --> 00:47:58,680
Speaker 1: two years of their life and say I didn't get

836
00:47:58,719 --> 00:48:01,800
Speaker 1: anything in the end, right And and this is always

837
00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:04,120
Speaker 1: the issue with a special counsel, is that they do

838
00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:06,719
Speaker 1: not feel as though they have done their duty or

839
00:48:06,760 --> 00:48:10,360
Speaker 1: their job unless they come out of it having bagged someone,

840
00:48:10,480 --> 00:48:14,320
Speaker 1: someone big, preferably because the field that that was their mission.

841
00:48:14,880 --> 00:48:17,560
Speaker 1: Um And and we've seen that again and again and

842
00:48:17,600 --> 00:48:21,520
Speaker 1: again and so far Mr Mueller has done a pretty

843
00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:26,200
Speaker 1: decent job of unraveling, uh, what clearly was an effort

844
00:48:26,239 --> 00:48:31,600
Speaker 1: by Russians to engage in some small time disruption uh

845
00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:34,560
Speaker 1: and chaos sewing here in the United States. He's trolling

846
00:48:34,600 --> 00:48:37,959
Speaker 1: on social media, et cetera and so on. It's great

847
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:40,319
Speaker 1: that he did that, but I don't think he necessarily

848
00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:43,319
Speaker 1: ever viewed that really as his job. I think it's

849
00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:45,839
Speaker 1: a noble job that he'd done that, But remember he

850
00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:49,680
Speaker 1: was more specifically tasked with looking into Mr Trump, and

851
00:48:49,680 --> 00:48:52,400
Speaker 1: and having come up completely short on that front in

852
00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:55,839
Speaker 1: terms of collusion and obstruction of justice, it seems he's

853
00:48:55,880 --> 00:48:58,920
Speaker 1: just not willing to let it go. Kims Strass of

854
00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:01,480
Speaker 1: everybody of the Wall Street Journal Editorial Board, the one

855
00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:02,960
Speaker 1: and only Kim, thank you so much for make the

856
00:49:03,000 --> 00:49:04,919
Speaker 1: time always great to have you stopped by the Freedom Hunt.

857
00:49:07,360 --> 00:49:09,399
Speaker 1: When you're hiring, folks, when you're trying to bring new

858
00:49:09,440 --> 00:49:12,560
Speaker 1: people into your organization, you know, it's absolutely essential that

859
00:49:12,680 --> 00:49:15,360
Speaker 1: you can trust that the people that you're taking into

860
00:49:15,400 --> 00:49:18,239
Speaker 1: your fold are who they say they are, that their

861
00:49:18,320 --> 00:49:21,480
Speaker 1: backgrounds match up with all the things they've presented to you,

862
00:49:21,719 --> 00:49:24,040
Speaker 1: and that you know that you're getting somebody who's passed

863
00:49:24,040 --> 00:49:27,840
Speaker 1: all the necessary hurdles and checks. That's why Global Verification

871
00:49:53,440 --> 00:49:55,280
Speaker 1: I said, folks, it's all done here in the States.

872
00:49:55,320 --> 00:49:59,960
Speaker 1: Call eight seven seven six nine, that's eight seven seven,

873
00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:04,120
Speaker 1: or go to my g VN dot com. That's my

874
00:50:04,280 --> 00:50:05,879
Speaker 1: g v N dot com and if you give him

875
00:50:05,880 --> 00:50:24,080
Speaker 1: a call, tell him Buck sent you. I think John

876
00:50:24,120 --> 00:50:26,720
Speaker 1: Brennan is actually a national security risk to the country,

877
00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:30,000
Speaker 1: and we are safer because his UH security clearance has gone.

878
00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:32,080
Speaker 1: And the reason I say that is in two thousand

879
00:50:32,160 --> 00:50:35,239
Speaker 1: and twelve he actually released information to other x C

880
00:50:35,320 --> 00:50:37,400
Speaker 1: i A agents who went on TV and said, oh,

881
00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:40,040
Speaker 1: we've got a double agent in Yemen. Well, at the time,

882
00:50:40,160 --> 00:50:42,080
Speaker 1: there was a double agent Yemen and his life was

883
00:50:42,120 --> 00:50:43,759
Speaker 1: put in his or her I don't know who it was.

884
00:50:44,040 --> 00:50:46,600
Speaker 1: Their life was put at risk because of John Rennan's,

885
00:50:46,880 --> 00:50:50,200
Speaker 1: you know, releasing information that he shouldn't have. John Brennan

886
00:50:50,320 --> 00:50:55,759
Speaker 1: was also involved with illegally looking at democrats computers who

887
00:50:55,800 --> 00:50:59,959
Speaker 1: are investigating CIA torture and then lying about it before

888
00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:02,440
Speaker 1: a committee. So John Brennan should have been fired for

889
00:51:02,520 --> 00:51:04,919
Speaker 1: calls long ago, and he shouldn't be within a mile

890
00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:08,160
Speaker 1: of classified information because he's the national security risk. He

891
00:51:08,160 --> 00:51:10,279
Speaker 1: doesn't know how to keep his mouth shut, and now

892
00:51:10,640 --> 00:51:12,600
Speaker 1: he's someone who's going out there saying the commander in

893
00:51:12,640 --> 00:51:14,400
Speaker 1: chief has treason us. I don't think. I don't know

894
00:51:14,440 --> 00:51:16,520
Speaker 1: how you can be in the chain of information if

895
00:51:16,520 --> 00:51:18,560
Speaker 1: you're saying the commander in chief should be put to

896
00:51:18,560 --> 00:51:21,200
Speaker 1: death for treason. So, yeah, John Brennan's way out there,

897
00:51:21,239 --> 00:51:25,240
Speaker 1: absurdly out there and needs to have no connection to government. Ever, again,

898
00:51:26,200 --> 00:51:28,960
Speaker 1: Rand Paul just making a whole lot of sense, there,

899
00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:31,480
Speaker 1: isn't he? Senator Rand Paul seems to get it. A

900
00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:34,960
Speaker 1: lot of other people don't. Not only is it, look,

901
00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:37,359
Speaker 1: this is an exception, this is an outrage. Folks. You've

902
00:51:37,360 --> 00:51:40,719
Speaker 1: got the former CI directors calling somebody, uh, you know,

903
00:51:41,160 --> 00:51:43,360
Speaker 1: a trader to the country, and just so happens that

904
00:51:43,400 --> 00:51:46,000
Speaker 1: person he's calling a trader is the President of the

905
00:51:46,080 --> 00:51:49,400
Speaker 1: United States. And then he goes through a lot of

906
00:51:49,400 --> 00:51:54,319
Speaker 1: other reasons, particularly the Senate spying issue. Uh, And I

907
00:51:54,360 --> 00:51:57,400
Speaker 1: think folks would say, yeah, this guy should have a clearance?

908
00:51:58,680 --> 00:52:00,279
Speaker 1: Is this really a surprise when you when you think

909
00:52:00,280 --> 00:52:05,640
Speaker 1: about how this guy Brennan was Obama's like chief terrorism

910
00:52:05,719 --> 00:52:08,080
Speaker 1: advisor in the White House for a while. Okay, Obama

911
00:52:08,160 --> 00:52:11,200
Speaker 1: thought Brennan was just the greatest. Do you look at

912
00:52:11,239 --> 00:52:14,280
Speaker 1: the other people that Obama really trusted on national security,

913
00:52:14,600 --> 00:52:18,560
Speaker 1: Susan Rice, Samantha Power. I mean, you go down this

914
00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:20,520
Speaker 1: list of some of the folks that he wanted around him,

915
00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:25,799
Speaker 1: to advise him. Ben Rhodes, John Kerry. I mean, these

916
00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:29,040
Speaker 1: are people that you think I really have an understanding

917
00:52:29,040 --> 00:52:31,240
Speaker 1: of what's going on the this is the A team.

918
00:52:31,239 --> 00:52:33,680
Speaker 1: I don't think so. I don't think so at all.

919
00:52:33,920 --> 00:52:36,520
Speaker 1: You know, and Trump is he's not backing down on this.

920
00:52:36,600 --> 00:52:38,520
Speaker 1: And even though the media is trying to make this

921
00:52:38,600 --> 00:52:41,160
Speaker 1: a huge deal. Oh my gosh, they're making that such

922
00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:46,280
Speaker 1: a big deal. Trump spoke about this earlier today and

923
00:52:46,320 --> 00:52:47,799
Speaker 1: this is what he had to say about A Place seven.

924
00:52:47,800 --> 00:52:49,560
Speaker 1: Oh actually no, this is from even this is from

925
00:52:49,560 --> 00:52:52,560
Speaker 1: over the weekend, Place seventeen. There's no silence. If anything,

926
00:52:52,600 --> 00:52:55,640
Speaker 1: I'm giving up a bigger voice. Many people don't even

927
00:52:55,680 --> 00:52:57,800
Speaker 1: know who he is. And now he has a bigger voice,

928
00:52:58,040 --> 00:53:00,200
Speaker 1: and that's okay with me because I like to get

929
00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:03,399
Speaker 1: on voices like that. I've never respected him. I've never

930
00:53:03,480 --> 00:53:07,120
Speaker 1: had a lot of respect. And Senator Birth said it best.

931
00:53:07,200 --> 00:53:09,399
Speaker 1: If you knew anything, why didn't you report it when

932
00:53:09,400 --> 00:53:12,800
Speaker 1: you were before all of these committees, including their committee,

933
00:53:13,239 --> 00:53:15,319
Speaker 1: so he had a chance to report, he never did.

934
00:53:15,719 --> 00:53:19,960
Speaker 1: This was just came up lately, and that's that. That's

935
00:53:19,960 --> 00:53:24,680
Speaker 1: a disgusting thing. Frankly, this notion of silencing Brennan is

936
00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:28,640
Speaker 1: not to be taken seriously. It's not a real thing, folks.

937
00:53:28,920 --> 00:53:33,200
Speaker 1: It's not anything that we should uh be sitting around

938
00:53:33,200 --> 00:53:35,480
Speaker 1: be worried about. He's not being silent. Brennan is now

939
00:53:35,719 --> 00:53:38,279
Speaker 1: more famous than ever. This is Brennan has become the

940
00:53:38,320 --> 00:53:41,279
Speaker 1: Jim Acosta of the intelligence world. Oh my gosh, they're

941
00:53:41,400 --> 00:53:45,279
Speaker 1: silencing me. Look, his book deal will be bigger, his

942
00:53:45,400 --> 00:53:49,160
Speaker 1: speaking fees are higher. Everything about Brennan's world right now

943
00:53:49,280 --> 00:53:53,600
Speaker 1: is elevated because he's become a hashtag resistance figure. And

944
00:53:54,120 --> 00:53:56,879
Speaker 1: I just think that it's it's you know, we we've

945
00:53:56,880 --> 00:53:59,000
Speaker 1: had it. We've had enough of the lives man that

946
00:53:59,080 --> 00:54:02,640
Speaker 1: this notion is being silence. No one's silencing him. They're

947
00:54:02,680 --> 00:54:05,759
Speaker 1: just not giving him access to the nation's most sensitive information,

948
00:54:06,600 --> 00:54:10,600
Speaker 1: which he doesn't need and we don't need him. To

949
00:54:10,680 --> 00:54:12,000
Speaker 1: give you a sense of the kind of stuff that

950
00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:14,720
Speaker 1: they say, I mean, here, here's here's Clapper on scene

951
00:54:14,719 --> 00:54:19,759
Speaker 1: and play play eight. The value standards, the institutions that

952
00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:24,319
Speaker 1: that I and others spent the major part of our

953
00:54:24,360 --> 00:54:29,600
Speaker 1: professional lives defending and upholding are under assault by our

954
00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:32,520
Speaker 1: very own president. That I really do wonder whether the

955
00:54:32,600 --> 00:54:38,600
Speaker 1: Russians have something on him. I really question question his

956
00:54:39,600 --> 00:54:44,279
Speaker 1: ability to his fitness to be in this office. And

957
00:54:44,360 --> 00:54:49,080
Speaker 1: I also I am beginning to wonder about his his

958
00:54:49,200 --> 00:54:53,640
Speaker 1: motivation for it. What a great case officer Vladimir Putin is.

959
00:54:54,200 --> 00:54:56,960
Speaker 1: He knows how to handle an asset, and that's what

960
00:54:57,000 --> 00:55:02,439
Speaker 1: he's doing with the president handling an asset. Folcus saying

961
00:55:02,480 --> 00:55:08,680
Speaker 1: that the president United States is effectively under foreign government control.

962
00:55:09,800 --> 00:55:12,200
Speaker 1: That's the former Director of National Intelligence. Does he provide

963
00:55:12,200 --> 00:55:13,799
Speaker 1: an evidence for this note? But you see, that's what's

964
00:55:13,840 --> 00:55:18,160
Speaker 1: so easily about the whole thing is that they create

965
00:55:18,200 --> 00:55:20,640
Speaker 1: the assumption that they must have information, they must have

966
00:55:20,719 --> 00:55:24,799
Speaker 1: access to things that you know, we don't have. But

967
00:55:24,840 --> 00:55:26,840
Speaker 1: they're the ones who really know the truth. They're the

968
00:55:26,880 --> 00:55:31,719
Speaker 1: intelligence community chiefs or were also. Don't forget this. This

969
00:55:31,800 --> 00:55:33,560
Speaker 1: is this is Clapper. When I asked a question about

970
00:55:33,560 --> 00:55:35,640
Speaker 1: whether or not there's any mass collection going on play

971
00:55:35,640 --> 00:55:39,920
Speaker 1: Club nine, does the n s A collect any type

972
00:55:40,040 --> 00:55:44,040
Speaker 1: of data at all on millions or hundreds of millions

973
00:55:44,120 --> 00:55:52,879
Speaker 1: of Americans? No, sir, it does not, not wittingly. There

974
00:55:52,880 --> 00:55:58,640
Speaker 1: are cases where they could inadvertently perhaps collect, but not

975
00:55:58,640 --> 00:56:01,920
Speaker 1: not winningly. That's a lie, as we all know that

976
00:56:02,040 --> 00:56:04,879
Speaker 1: was before Congress. What why is that? You know, We've

977
00:56:04,880 --> 00:56:06,520
Speaker 1: got all these people that are saying, oh my gosh,

978
00:56:06,560 --> 00:56:09,400
Speaker 1: you know Trump, you can't speak to he can't speak

979
00:56:09,400 --> 00:56:11,920
Speaker 1: to Mueller because he's gonna get caught in a lie. Well,

980
00:56:11,960 --> 00:56:14,600
Speaker 1: other people lie and it's not a big deal. Other

981
00:56:14,640 --> 00:56:17,280
Speaker 1: people lie and it's apparently no problem in front of Congress,

982
00:56:17,680 --> 00:56:20,799
Speaker 1: which is the same legally speaking as being under you know,

983
00:56:20,800 --> 00:56:23,920
Speaker 1: as being under oath in a court. So why is

984
00:56:23,960 --> 00:56:29,320
Speaker 1: there no issue here? See, folks, they don't have any standards,

985
00:56:29,360 --> 00:56:31,319
Speaker 1: so they try to use our standards against us. And

986
00:56:31,320 --> 00:56:33,160
Speaker 1: in the era of Trump, we've decided to stop letting

987
00:56:33,200 --> 00:56:35,919
Speaker 1: that be the game that they play. We've had enough.

988
00:56:37,120 --> 00:56:40,520
Speaker 1: And these former intelligence chiefs who are out there making

989
00:56:40,560 --> 00:56:42,440
Speaker 1: this case to the the American people are doing so in

990
00:56:42,440 --> 00:56:45,200
Speaker 1: a way that is deeply damaging to the reputation of

991
00:56:45,239 --> 00:56:48,880
Speaker 1: the intelligence community, to our ability. I think to have

992
00:56:49,200 --> 00:56:52,440
Speaker 1: a commander chief who can trust the intelligence chief is

993
00:56:52,440 --> 00:56:54,000
Speaker 1: going forward. And they're doing it all because of Trump

994
00:56:54,160 --> 00:56:56,839
Speaker 1: arrangement syndrome. Because these are not normal criticisms. These are

995
00:56:56,880 --> 00:57:00,000
Speaker 1: not healthy minds that are thinking this stuff about the President.

996
00:57:01,680 --> 00:57:15,040
Speaker 1: We'll be right back he's back with you now, because

997
00:57:15,080 --> 00:57:17,680
Speaker 1: when it comes to the fight for truth, the fuck

998
00:57:17,880 --> 00:57:28,120
Speaker 1: never stops. You said, if Mueller doesn't get this done

999
00:57:28,680 --> 00:57:31,360
Speaker 1: in two or three weeks, basically referring to September one,

1000
00:57:32,280 --> 00:57:35,640
Speaker 1: we will just unload on him like a ton of bricks.

1001
00:57:36,040 --> 00:57:38,480
Speaker 1: What does that? What does that mean for interfering with

1002
00:57:38,520 --> 00:57:41,280
Speaker 1: the election when he had no reason to do that

1003
00:57:41,280 --> 00:57:43,640
Speaker 1: because he could have gotten this done earlier. The person

1004
00:57:43,680 --> 00:57:46,200
Speaker 1: who's delayed here, But what are you gonna do if

1005
00:57:46,200 --> 00:57:48,960
Speaker 1: the president gonna fire him, We're not going to We're

1006
00:57:49,000 --> 00:57:52,960
Speaker 1: gonna public We're gonna point out to the public how

1007
00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:56,040
Speaker 1: he has acted improperly and he's now violating a Justice

1008
00:57:56,040 --> 00:57:59,680
Speaker 1: Department run about not carrying on an investigation. That's not

1009
00:57:59,720 --> 00:58:03,000
Speaker 1: the sixty days about issuing indictments and things like that.

1010
00:58:03,160 --> 00:58:06,800
Speaker 1: He can go. What's about carrying on It is not.

1011
00:58:07,080 --> 00:58:10,120
Speaker 1: It's about carrying on a public investigation. If he has

1012
00:58:10,160 --> 00:58:12,520
Speaker 1: to issue a subpoena during that period of time, it

1013
00:58:12,520 --> 00:58:15,360
Speaker 1: would be a gross interference in the election when he

1014
00:58:15,400 --> 00:58:18,960
Speaker 1: could have issued a six months uh, six months before,

1015
00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:21,680
Speaker 1: three months before. And when you tell me that, you

1016
00:58:21,720 --> 00:58:25,480
Speaker 1: know he should testify because that for a minute pause,

1017
00:58:25,520 --> 00:58:27,120
Speaker 1: actually I want to jump in here for seconuse. We

1018
00:58:27,240 --> 00:58:29,120
Speaker 1: we're about to folks were about to get into the

1019
00:58:29,120 --> 00:58:31,960
Speaker 1: big exchange from over the weekend where everybody was all upset.

1020
00:58:32,080 --> 00:58:34,880
Speaker 1: You know, oh my gosh, look at Rudy said, Now,

1021
00:58:35,040 --> 00:58:37,760
Speaker 1: oh the media running all these headlines. Let me just

1022
00:58:37,760 --> 00:58:39,640
Speaker 1: know that, you know that you got Rudy and Chuck

1023
00:58:39,680 --> 00:58:42,800
Speaker 1: Todd here on whatever show NBC. I never I don't

1024
00:58:42,840 --> 00:58:45,680
Speaker 1: watch the Sunday shows because I do my own research

1025
00:58:45,680 --> 00:58:47,360
Speaker 1: on Sundays and I don't need some clowns to tell

1026
00:58:47,440 --> 00:58:49,880
Speaker 1: me what the political stories are for the week. But

1027
00:58:50,680 --> 00:58:53,840
Speaker 1: you know, no, no notice how this whole thing, the

1028
00:58:53,960 --> 00:58:56,280
Speaker 1: Mueller probe and all this this got started because of

1029
00:58:56,280 --> 00:58:59,440
Speaker 1: election interference. That's what they said, right, that's what and

1030
00:58:59,440 --> 00:59:02,040
Speaker 1: then interference led to the obstruction and then all this

1031
00:59:02,080 --> 00:59:05,400
Speaker 1: other stuff. But what what we see here is that

1032
00:59:05,760 --> 00:59:10,440
Speaker 1: the same people who were so worried about election interference

1033
00:59:10,880 --> 00:59:15,240
Speaker 1: are now the ones who are justifying election interference. Right,

1034
00:59:15,360 --> 00:59:17,720
Speaker 1: the same people who are saying, oh my gosh, the Russians,

1035
00:59:17,760 --> 00:59:21,240
Speaker 1: all the Russians are getting going our stuff now when

1036
00:59:21,560 --> 00:59:24,320
Speaker 1: Mueller may be continuing this probe in a way that's

1037
00:59:24,360 --> 00:59:27,000
Speaker 1: clearly going to affect the mindset of voters. That's clearly

1038
00:59:27,000 --> 00:59:30,640
Speaker 1: going to affect people as they're going into the polls.

1039
00:59:30,680 --> 00:59:33,200
Speaker 1: If you're not somebody who understands the full scope of

1040
00:59:33,200 --> 00:59:34,960
Speaker 1: what's going on here, if you if you pay attention

1041
00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:37,880
Speaker 1: to the media, if you trust the mainstream media for

1042
00:59:38,000 --> 00:59:40,920
Speaker 1: your facts on what's gone on here, you're gonna think,

1043
00:59:40,920 --> 00:59:43,040
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, the president nited states still under this

1044
00:59:43,080 --> 00:59:48,400
Speaker 1: active investigation. This is so terrible, And maybe I should

1045
00:59:49,200 --> 00:59:52,640
Speaker 1: vote for the party that is not the president's party. Right, No,

1046
00:59:52,920 --> 00:59:54,640
Speaker 1: Trump is not in the ballot. But as everyone knows,

1047
00:59:54,640 --> 00:59:56,840
Speaker 1: in a mid term like this, of course the president

1048
00:59:56,880 --> 01:00:00,040
Speaker 1: and his party together are on the ballot. Everybody knows that.

1049
01:00:00,120 --> 01:00:05,360
Speaker 1: Everybody understands that. So but but the election interference narrative

1050
01:00:05,360 --> 01:00:07,760
Speaker 1: has now got us to a point where people are

1051
01:00:07,800 --> 01:00:11,040
Speaker 1: pushing for election interference who were so worried about election

1052
01:00:11,080 --> 01:00:13,640
Speaker 1: interference before. This is the great irony of the situation.

1053
01:00:14,000 --> 01:00:16,360
Speaker 1: But then we get into this other, this other component

1054
01:00:16,400 --> 01:00:20,160
Speaker 1: here about truth is truth playclip twelve. And when you

1055
01:00:20,240 --> 01:00:22,840
Speaker 1: tell me that you know he should testify because he's

1056
01:00:22,840 --> 01:00:24,840
Speaker 1: going to tell the truth and he shouldn't worry. Well,

1057
01:00:24,840 --> 01:00:27,560
Speaker 1: that's so silly, because it's somebody's version of the truth,

1058
01:00:27,680 --> 01:00:31,640
Speaker 1: not the truth. He didn't have a conversation of this truth.

1059
01:00:31,840 --> 01:00:33,960
Speaker 1: I don't mean to go like I know it isn't truth.

1060
01:00:34,040 --> 01:00:37,280
Speaker 1: Truth isn't truth. The President of United States says, I

1061
01:00:37,360 --> 01:00:40,240
Speaker 1: didn't Truth is the truth? Mr merrithn you realize what

1062
01:00:40,760 --> 01:00:44,960
Speaker 1: I No, No, don't, don't don't do that. Don't do

1063
01:00:45,080 --> 01:00:48,520
Speaker 1: this to me, don't do truth. Donald Trump. Donald Trump

1064
01:00:48,560 --> 01:00:52,440
Speaker 1: says I didn't talk about Flynn with Comey. Comey says,

1065
01:00:52,760 --> 01:00:54,600
Speaker 1: you didn't talk about it. So tell me what the

1066
01:00:54,640 --> 01:00:56,960
Speaker 1: truth is, Tom McCain, if you have such a genius,

1067
01:00:58,360 --> 01:01:01,400
Speaker 1: you know that. That's exactly the point that that they

1068
01:01:01,600 --> 01:01:03,440
Speaker 1: they see that they would seize on this and make

1069
01:01:03,480 --> 01:01:08,040
Speaker 1: a meme of it, and they did, right. Truth isn't truth? Yeah,

1070
01:01:08,120 --> 01:01:10,600
Speaker 1: well that that's a funny phrase now because they're all

1071
01:01:10,600 --> 01:01:12,520
Speaker 1: saying Trump lies so much and there's all these liars

1072
01:01:12,520 --> 01:01:17,080
Speaker 1: around and everything else. Uh. Meanwhile, what he's saying is

1073
01:01:17,080 --> 01:01:20,240
Speaker 1: something that liberals pretend to forget now because it's convenient

1074
01:01:20,280 --> 01:01:22,880
Speaker 1: for them. And it's the following that that you could

1075
01:01:22,880 --> 01:01:26,520
Speaker 1: tell the truth and still go to prison, or you

1076
01:01:26,520 --> 01:01:30,400
Speaker 1: could tell the truth and still be uh treated as

1077
01:01:30,400 --> 01:01:33,000
Speaker 1: a liar in the courts or or by the FBI.

1078
01:01:33,640 --> 01:01:37,120
Speaker 1: This should not be surprising to liberals. Liberals are supposed

1079
01:01:37,120 --> 01:01:39,280
Speaker 1: to be the ones, folks they're supposed to be, I

1080
01:01:39,320 --> 01:01:41,000
Speaker 1: know they're not. They're supposed to be the ones who

1081
01:01:41,040 --> 01:01:47,680
Speaker 1: are worried about, oh, false arrest, about implicit racial bias

1082
01:01:47,720 --> 01:01:51,800
Speaker 1: and arrest. Liberals are always telling us that police are unjust,

1083
01:01:52,160 --> 01:01:55,360
Speaker 1: that the justice system makes mistakes, that the justice system

1084
01:01:55,480 --> 01:01:58,840
Speaker 1: is biased, and and they're always so worried about procedure

1085
01:01:58,880 --> 01:02:01,840
Speaker 1: to protect defendants. But we see is that's really only

1086
01:02:01,880 --> 01:02:04,680
Speaker 1: applicable for liberals when they think the defendant is a

1087
01:02:04,720 --> 01:02:08,600
Speaker 1: member of a protected class. That's really what they're worried about.

1088
01:02:08,680 --> 01:02:12,160
Speaker 1: Identity politics as it intersect with the intersects with the

1089
01:02:12,200 --> 01:02:15,800
Speaker 1: justice system. That's what really matters to them. The principle

1090
01:02:16,080 --> 01:02:20,800
Speaker 1: of a far too powerful uh executive branch, or a

1091
01:02:20,800 --> 01:02:25,120
Speaker 1: far too powerful prosecutorial wing of the executive government that

1092
01:02:25,160 --> 01:02:28,440
Speaker 1: doesn't really seem to bother them. I'm sorry. I refused

1093
01:02:28,480 --> 01:02:32,680
Speaker 1: to believe that General Flynn, who was the Defense Intelligence

1094
01:02:32,720 --> 01:02:36,840
Speaker 1: Agency director and a three star general. Okay, I refused

1095
01:02:36,880 --> 01:02:40,000
Speaker 1: to believe that he just lied about a meeting with

1096
01:02:40,040 --> 01:02:42,280
Speaker 1: some FBI agents for no reason for and it was

1097
01:02:42,320 --> 01:02:44,920
Speaker 1: no big deal because he didn't know any better, or

1098
01:02:44,920 --> 01:02:47,280
Speaker 1: because he just felt like it. No, they set him up,

1099
01:02:47,920 --> 01:02:50,040
Speaker 1: meaning that he thought he was just having an off

1100
01:02:50,040 --> 01:02:52,760
Speaker 1: the cuff conversation and said something that they could then

1101
01:02:52,880 --> 01:02:57,720
Speaker 1: later on manufacture as factually inaccurate. There's a reason why

1102
01:02:57,760 --> 01:03:00,280
Speaker 1: people don't want to have to sit in a federal

1103
01:03:00,320 --> 01:03:02,320
Speaker 1: trial and defend themselves that there's a reason why they

1104
01:03:02,320 --> 01:03:04,680
Speaker 1: don't want to have these interactions with the government. Liberals

1105
01:03:04,800 --> 01:03:08,520
Speaker 1: used to know that stuff, but they have very conveniently

1106
01:03:08,560 --> 01:03:11,200
Speaker 1: forgotten it now, and so that's why they run with

1107
01:03:11,200 --> 01:03:13,240
Speaker 1: this whole truth isn't truth? Look what if he's that

1108
01:03:13,360 --> 01:03:16,800
Speaker 1: truth isn't truth? Truth, There isn't truth. Well, yes, when

1109
01:03:16,880 --> 01:03:20,240
Speaker 1: when you have a jury that's going to always give

1110
01:03:20,400 --> 01:03:22,320
Speaker 1: much more weight to what the what the government says,

1111
01:03:22,400 --> 01:03:25,520
Speaker 1: especially the federal government. It's unfortunate, but it's true in

1112
01:03:25,560 --> 01:03:28,280
Speaker 1: these matters when you have a jury that's going to

1113
01:03:28,320 --> 01:03:30,360
Speaker 1: hear from the government one thing and then you're going

1114
01:03:30,400 --> 01:03:33,040
Speaker 1: to present it with another. You know, when you have

1115
01:03:34,240 --> 01:03:38,840
Speaker 1: a Trump administration that has been just beset with media

1116
01:03:39,000 --> 01:03:42,400
Speaker 1: stories of all kinds about how they're lying and they're

1117
01:03:42,440 --> 01:03:45,520
Speaker 1: so bad and they're so terrible, then yeah, you could

1118
01:03:45,520 --> 01:03:48,040
Speaker 1: tell the truth if you're the president of the United

1119
01:03:48,080 --> 01:03:52,320
Speaker 1: States and the d o J could jam you up anyway,

1120
01:03:52,400 --> 01:03:55,800
Speaker 1: So you know that this isn't really that complicated, This

1121
01:03:55,880 --> 01:03:59,640
Speaker 1: isn't really that that that that that insane. But but

1122
01:03:59,680 --> 01:04:02,080
Speaker 1: they ran with the story because it's useful to them,

1123
01:04:02,080 --> 01:04:06,600
Speaker 1: folks that this is the new The new narrative under

1124
01:04:06,600 --> 01:04:09,440
Speaker 1: the Trump administration at least, is that Republicans don't care

1125
01:04:09,440 --> 01:04:11,440
Speaker 1: at all about facts and don't care at all about truth,

1126
01:04:12,160 --> 01:04:15,360
Speaker 1: when what's actually going on is that we care about

1127
01:04:15,360 --> 01:04:18,320
Speaker 1: what matters, care about how the country is doing, what

1128
01:04:18,400 --> 01:04:21,520
Speaker 1: the policies are, and we understand the context of this fight.

1129
01:04:21,560 --> 01:04:23,480
Speaker 1: You know, I just feel like we've all gotten tired

1130
01:04:23,520 --> 01:04:27,160
Speaker 1: after a while of one of the left favorite games,

1131
01:04:27,160 --> 01:04:31,880
Speaker 1: which is always holding us to the the holding us

1132
01:04:31,960 --> 01:04:34,560
Speaker 1: up to live by rules and we have to be

1133
01:04:34,600 --> 01:04:39,000
Speaker 1: perfect or else. They exaggerate every transgression, every mishap, right

1134
01:04:39,000 --> 01:04:42,080
Speaker 1: when a conservative messes up, they magnify at times. Town

1135
01:04:42,120 --> 01:04:44,520
Speaker 1: when a conservative makes a mistake, it's the end of

1136
01:04:44,520 --> 01:04:47,120
Speaker 1: the world. And with their side, they're always ignoring it,

1137
01:04:47,160 --> 01:04:49,040
Speaker 1: they don't cover it, or they soft pedal it or

1138
01:04:49,080 --> 01:04:51,840
Speaker 1: they and we're all sick of it. We won't play

1139
01:04:51,880 --> 01:04:55,120
Speaker 1: their game anymore. And that's why they're freaking out so much.

1140
01:04:56,160 --> 01:04:58,600
Speaker 1: That's why they can't bring themselves they just have a

1141
01:04:58,640 --> 01:05:01,240
Speaker 1: normal conversation about any this. Now, it's just what Trump

1142
01:05:01,360 --> 01:05:07,040
Speaker 1: derangement syndrome is a true psychological pandemic, and why they

1143
01:05:07,040 --> 01:05:09,640
Speaker 1: would pick out of this thing truth isn't truth. I

1144
01:05:09,680 --> 01:05:11,320
Speaker 1: know it's a catchy headline. I know a lot of

1145
01:05:11,320 --> 01:05:13,200
Speaker 1: different media outlets went with it, but when you listen

1146
01:05:13,240 --> 01:05:16,280
Speaker 1: to the context, it's clear what Ulani was saying, which is, yeah,

1147
01:05:16,280 --> 01:05:18,560
Speaker 1: that's right. Mueller is on a witch hunt and he

1148
01:05:18,680 --> 01:05:21,040
Speaker 1: is trying to take down the President of the United States,

1149
01:05:21,040 --> 01:05:40,120
Speaker 1: even if he tells the truth. You have been more

1150
01:05:40,120 --> 01:05:43,760
Speaker 1: outspoken than really any former official. Uh. And in fact,

1151
01:05:43,760 --> 01:05:47,000
Speaker 1: that maybe why many Republican legislatures feel comfortable taking the

1152
01:05:47,040 --> 01:05:50,760
Speaker 1: president's side. They believe your comments have been over the top.

1153
01:05:50,960 --> 01:05:54,760
Speaker 1: Do you regret essentially accusing the president of treason? Do

1154
01:05:54,760 --> 01:05:56,880
Speaker 1: you do you regret some of the things you have said.

1155
01:05:58,800 --> 01:06:01,080
Speaker 1: I called his behavior trees this, which is to betray

1156
01:06:01,160 --> 01:06:03,120
Speaker 1: one's trust and to aid and at the enemy. And

1157
01:06:03,160 --> 01:06:06,440
Speaker 1: I stand very much by that claim, you are the

1158
01:06:06,480 --> 01:06:09,800
Speaker 1: former CIA director accusing the sitting president United States. It's

1159
01:06:09,840 --> 01:06:12,040
Speaker 1: not a private citizen. A lot of people here, the

1160
01:06:12,080 --> 01:06:15,280
Speaker 1: former CIA director accusing the sitting president United States of treason.

1161
01:06:16,120 --> 01:06:20,400
Speaker 1: That's that's monument that's a monumental accusation. It is indeed

1162
01:06:20,520 --> 01:06:23,760
Speaker 1: a monumental accusation. And I gotta say I give Chuck

1163
01:06:23,840 --> 01:06:28,560
Speaker 1: Todd some credit for at least being willing to say that.

1164
01:06:28,600 --> 01:06:31,120
Speaker 1: I mean, this is not normal stuff, folks, And I

1165
01:06:31,120 --> 01:06:34,640
Speaker 1: think that's where a lot of us have finally just

1166
01:06:34,840 --> 01:06:38,400
Speaker 1: departed from this crazy game that you know, the the

1167
01:06:38,440 --> 01:06:41,200
Speaker 1: anti trumpers want to play. When you have the former

1168
01:06:41,320 --> 01:06:48,000
Speaker 1: CIA director out there, uh, claiming that the president of

1169
01:06:48,040 --> 01:06:51,600
Speaker 1: the United States, the sitting president United States, committed treason,

1170
01:06:52,640 --> 01:06:55,960
Speaker 1: I mean, that has really negative ramifications. I think it's

1171
01:06:56,000 --> 01:06:59,600
Speaker 1: so interesting that you'll hear all the time from these

1172
01:06:59,600 --> 01:07:03,840
Speaker 1: different journalists and the anti trumpers that Trump is undermining institutions.

1173
01:07:04,240 --> 01:07:08,120
Speaker 1: When you have the spy chief of the last administration

1174
01:07:08,200 --> 01:07:11,040
Speaker 1: that was a Democrat administration, the opposition to the current

1175
01:07:11,080 --> 01:07:15,080
Speaker 1: one saying that the president is a trader, Uh, that

1176
01:07:15,280 --> 01:07:19,640
Speaker 1: is incredibly undermining. But this this interview continues on and

1177
01:07:19,640 --> 01:07:22,360
Speaker 1: and Brennan, who I think has had some kind of

1178
01:07:22,360 --> 01:07:25,680
Speaker 1: break with reality. I mean, there's something wrong with him.

1179
01:07:26,080 --> 01:07:30,800
Speaker 1: Brennan goes into some more detail about his position. Well,

1180
01:07:30,840 --> 01:07:33,200
Speaker 1: I think these are abnormal times, and I think a

1181
01:07:33,200 --> 01:07:35,720
Speaker 1: lot of people have spoken out against what Mr Trump

1182
01:07:35,720 --> 01:07:38,840
Speaker 1: has done. And maybe it's my my warning training as

1183
01:07:38,840 --> 01:07:41,760
Speaker 1: an intelligence professional, I have seen the lights blinking red

1184
01:07:41,800 --> 01:07:44,560
Speaker 1: in terms of what Mr Trump has done and is doing,

1185
01:07:44,680 --> 01:07:47,200
Speaker 1: and is bringing this country down on the global stage,

1186
01:07:47,520 --> 01:07:51,200
Speaker 1: and he's fueling and feeding divisiveness within our country. He

1187
01:07:51,600 --> 01:07:54,880
Speaker 1: continually lies to the American people and the types of

1188
01:07:54,880 --> 01:07:57,160
Speaker 1: things that he's doing. I think I need to speak out,

1189
01:07:57,720 --> 01:08:00,560
Speaker 1: and so I've been speaking out rather forcefully because I

1190
01:08:00,560 --> 01:08:03,400
Speaker 1: believe it's important to do so. I don't believe I'm

1191
01:08:03,400 --> 01:08:05,760
Speaker 1: being political at all. I'm not a Republican, I'm not

1192
01:08:05,800 --> 01:08:10,440
Speaker 1: a Democrat. Yes, he's not being political. He's just being crazy.

1193
01:08:10,840 --> 01:08:13,720
Speaker 1: That's what the former CIA director is doing. He is

1194
01:08:13,760 --> 01:08:18,519
Speaker 1: acting like a person who has real problems in real trouble. Look, folks,

1195
01:08:18,680 --> 01:08:21,759
Speaker 1: I wrote about this on the Hill dot Com today.

1196
01:08:21,920 --> 01:08:26,400
Speaker 1: Of piece actually created quite a spirited discussion in the comments,

1197
01:08:26,520 --> 01:08:29,040
Speaker 1: and I got pushed back, and people are mad at

1198
01:08:29,040 --> 01:08:32,000
Speaker 1: me because there's always this assumption I think that because

1199
01:08:32,080 --> 01:08:36,080
Speaker 1: I worked for the CIA, that I must have some

1200
01:08:36,360 --> 01:08:42,080
Speaker 1: affinity for the intelligence agencies and and for federal bureaucracy.

1201
01:08:42,120 --> 01:08:44,719
Speaker 1: And I have to try to tell people no, because

1202
01:08:44,760 --> 01:08:48,240
Speaker 1: I actually understand these places. I have very different opinions

1203
01:08:48,280 --> 01:08:52,639
Speaker 1: than most journalists do. I am not an institutionalist when

1204
01:08:52,640 --> 01:08:56,040
Speaker 1: it comes to these these organizations. I view them as

1205
01:08:56,320 --> 01:08:59,360
Speaker 1: sometimes doing good stuff, sometimes doing bad stuff. Sometimes they

1206
01:08:59,400 --> 01:09:03,320
Speaker 1: need correction, and sometimes they need praise. But Brennan, I

1207
01:09:03,360 --> 01:09:06,320
Speaker 1: gotta tell you, Brennan is someone who and please do,

1208
01:09:06,400 --> 01:09:08,200
Speaker 1: by the way, go read the article. It's on Facebook

1209
01:09:08,240 --> 01:09:10,920
Speaker 1: dot com, slash buck Sexton or the Hill dot com.

1210
01:09:11,760 --> 01:09:13,479
Speaker 1: Appreciate when all of you get a chance to read

1211
01:09:13,520 --> 01:09:16,200
Speaker 1: it went up today. And I mean, I just say, look,

1212
01:09:16,200 --> 01:09:18,840
Speaker 1: the spy chiefs are causing long term damage to the

1213
01:09:18,880 --> 01:09:22,120
Speaker 1: spy agencies, the former spy chiefs, because they're gonna make

1214
01:09:22,120 --> 01:09:25,599
Speaker 1: it so that any incoming administration is going to think,

1215
01:09:25,880 --> 01:09:28,360
Speaker 1: who appointed that that CI director? Do I need to

1216
01:09:28,360 --> 01:09:31,320
Speaker 1: get rid of him right away? Yes? Sometimes people, you know,

1217
01:09:31,360 --> 01:09:33,880
Speaker 1: CI directors and others in the intel community come and

1218
01:09:33,920 --> 01:09:37,400
Speaker 1: go pretty quickly, but they don't always. And it's also

1219
01:09:37,600 --> 01:09:40,840
Speaker 1: a question of some of the other UH senior level folks.

1220
01:09:40,840 --> 01:09:42,439
Speaker 1: You know, if you worked in the White House and

1221
01:09:42,479 --> 01:09:45,400
Speaker 1: then you became, you know, a top person at the

1222
01:09:45,520 --> 01:09:47,599
Speaker 1: n s A or top person at the State Department

1223
01:09:47,680 --> 01:09:50,880
Speaker 1: or wherever, does the next administration have to worry about you.

1224
01:09:50,960 --> 01:09:54,880
Speaker 1: I think the answer now is obviously yes. But I

1225
01:09:54,920 --> 01:09:57,519
Speaker 1: want to dig into Brennan for a moment here, because

1226
01:09:57,640 --> 01:10:00,680
Speaker 1: I think that everyone I know who has worked at them,

1227
01:10:00,720 --> 01:10:02,200
Speaker 1: and there are a lot of people that I know

1228
01:10:02,280 --> 01:10:06,160
Speaker 1: who have spent time with Brennan who know him personally,

1229
01:10:06,240 --> 01:10:09,920
Speaker 1: who I believe it or not, generally say very good

1230
01:10:09,920 --> 01:10:12,320
Speaker 1: things about him as a as a as a guy,

1231
01:10:12,439 --> 01:10:14,360
Speaker 1: as as somebody that they would be around it. They

1232
01:10:14,360 --> 01:10:17,400
Speaker 1: seem to like him. Um, So I have a hard

1233
01:10:17,439 --> 01:10:21,920
Speaker 1: time believing that he's just entirely that he's had some

1234
01:10:22,000 --> 01:10:24,320
Speaker 1: kind of a breakdown. I mean, that's that's possible, but

1235
01:10:24,360 --> 01:10:27,880
Speaker 1: I don't see that as the most likely outcome here.

1236
01:10:28,120 --> 01:10:30,720
Speaker 1: I think a better guess of what's going on is

1237
01:10:30,760 --> 01:10:34,880
Speaker 1: that Brennan realizes that it's probably only a matter of

1238
01:10:34,920 --> 01:10:38,479
Speaker 1: time before the full extent of what he did to

1239
01:10:38,600 --> 01:10:43,640
Speaker 1: try and create this Russia collusion trapped for the administration

1240
01:10:43,760 --> 01:10:46,880
Speaker 1: or try to. I mean see that the problem is, folks,

1241
01:10:47,120 --> 01:10:50,879
Speaker 1: it's almost like a a police officer who who's so certain,

1242
01:10:51,320 --> 01:10:54,400
Speaker 1: so certain that a a a minister, a person is

1243
01:10:54,400 --> 01:10:58,200
Speaker 1: guilty that they plant evidence. And what happens to a

1244
01:10:58,280 --> 01:11:00,840
Speaker 1: cop who plants evidence because they're so sure that this

1245
01:11:00,920 --> 01:11:02,639
Speaker 1: is the guilty party and then all of a sudden

1246
01:11:02,840 --> 01:11:06,240
Speaker 1: it starts to look like they're not the guilty party. Well,

1247
01:11:06,280 --> 01:11:09,400
Speaker 1: for a lot of unethical people out there, they'd say, well,

1248
01:11:09,920 --> 01:11:11,880
Speaker 1: it's just a matter of collecting more evidence, but they

1249
01:11:11,920 --> 01:11:14,800
Speaker 1: would double down on the necessity of that right. They

1250
01:11:14,880 --> 01:11:17,840
Speaker 1: want to believe that their actions they were just trying

1251
01:11:17,840 --> 01:11:19,840
Speaker 1: to get the bad guy, and they know they know

1252
01:11:19,960 --> 01:11:22,080
Speaker 1: that person is bad. They believe in their heart that

1253
01:11:22,120 --> 01:11:26,360
Speaker 1: person is bad. And that's I think where Brennan is.

1254
01:11:26,400 --> 01:11:29,800
Speaker 1: I believe that he was worried that Trump was a

1255
01:11:29,800 --> 01:11:31,960
Speaker 1: a danger, a threat to the country. I think that

1256
01:11:32,000 --> 01:11:36,720
Speaker 1: he really was of that mindset. And now that the

1257
01:11:36,760 --> 01:11:38,560
Speaker 1: information is actually coming out, now that we're getting a

1258
01:11:38,640 --> 01:11:42,320
Speaker 1: better sense of what really happened, it's becoming clear that

1259
01:11:42,800 --> 01:11:46,479
Speaker 1: he jumped the gun. It's becoming clear that he was

1260
01:11:46,600 --> 01:11:50,400
Speaker 1: not in fact uh on, he had not unearthed or

1261
01:11:50,439 --> 01:11:54,479
Speaker 1: helped unearth this massive conspiracy with the Trump campaign to

1262
01:11:54,520 --> 01:11:59,480
Speaker 1: throw an election. No, in fact, what what happened is UH,

1263
01:12:00,120 --> 01:12:03,720
Speaker 1: a bunch of Russian Facebook trolls and some other uncorrelated

1264
01:12:03,760 --> 01:12:06,960
Speaker 1: events came together at a time when the Trump administration

1265
01:12:07,040 --> 01:12:11,720
Speaker 1: was beating all of the political wisdom, destroying the consensus opinions,

1266
01:12:13,479 --> 01:12:16,439
Speaker 1: and the establishment was in an utter panic and they

1267
01:12:16,479 --> 01:12:19,000
Speaker 1: were looking for a scapegoat, and this became the perfect

1268
01:12:19,080 --> 01:12:23,920
Speaker 1: scape scapegoat that Russia had helped Trump win. But Brennan

1269
01:12:24,040 --> 01:12:26,240
Speaker 1: is not in He's not in normal terms here, nor

1270
01:12:26,360 --> 01:12:29,920
Speaker 1: are Clapper and Comey and Hayden. I think I'm gonna

1271
01:12:29,920 --> 01:12:33,280
Speaker 1: get a chance to sit down with former CI director

1272
01:12:33,360 --> 01:12:36,160
Speaker 1: Michael He's also former n Essay director Michael Hayden later

1273
01:12:36,160 --> 01:12:39,600
Speaker 1: this week here in d C. Again the benefits of

1274
01:12:39,640 --> 01:12:41,559
Speaker 1: being a swamp creature, as I get to actually interview

1275
01:12:41,600 --> 01:12:44,519
Speaker 1: all these people now and and run sources all over

1276
01:12:44,520 --> 01:12:45,720
Speaker 1: the city, and I get to learn a lot of

1277
01:12:45,760 --> 01:12:48,760
Speaker 1: interesting stuff which I then can tell you. But I

1278
01:12:48,800 --> 01:12:50,720
Speaker 1: worked for Mike, as I've told you before, and I

1279
01:12:50,720 --> 01:12:53,400
Speaker 1: thought Mike was pretty squared away, and I really want

1280
01:12:53,400 --> 01:12:55,960
Speaker 1: to ask him what has happened here? You know, you

1281
01:12:56,200 --> 01:12:58,519
Speaker 1: heard it in Brennan's thing about you know, I had

1282
01:12:58,520 --> 01:13:01,760
Speaker 1: warning training and I'm a warning training intelligence officer. Well,

1283
01:13:01,800 --> 01:13:04,040
Speaker 1: i had intelligence officer training two. And at this point,

1284
01:13:04,320 --> 01:13:07,320
Speaker 1: we would we would think that this person, if Brennan

1285
01:13:07,360 --> 01:13:10,120
Speaker 1: were a source, I would think he was making stuff up.

1286
01:13:10,680 --> 01:13:13,920
Speaker 1: I would think that he was fabricating information to tell

1287
01:13:13,960 --> 01:13:16,439
Speaker 1: the American public what they what he thought they wanted

1288
01:13:16,439 --> 01:13:20,479
Speaker 1: to hear um. And I can't help but feel like

1289
01:13:20,520 --> 01:13:22,320
Speaker 1: there's some of these other people that are involved with

1290
01:13:22,360 --> 01:13:25,679
Speaker 1: Brennan that are all catching his back right now. They're saying, oh,

1291
01:13:25,760 --> 01:13:29,160
Speaker 1: how dare you threatened to take Brennan's clearance? Well, where

1292
01:13:29,160 --> 01:13:32,920
Speaker 1: are they when Brennan is yelling about how the president

1293
01:13:33,000 --> 01:13:35,280
Speaker 1: United States is a trader? Where are they on that?

1294
01:13:35,960 --> 01:13:38,880
Speaker 1: Why don't we get to hear more about that? You know,

1295
01:13:38,880 --> 01:13:41,000
Speaker 1: if if they're so concerned about the future and fate

1296
01:13:41,040 --> 01:13:43,439
Speaker 1: of the country, you would think that they might want

1297
01:13:43,439 --> 01:13:45,960
Speaker 1: to tell tell for the former CI director to chill

1298
01:13:46,000 --> 01:13:49,200
Speaker 1: out just a little bit. Clapper over the weekend said

1299
01:13:49,240 --> 01:13:55,720
Speaker 1: something like Brennan's He muttered something because Clapper likes to

1300
01:13:55,800 --> 01:14:00,800
Speaker 1: mutter about how Brennan needs to Yeah, probably tone it down.

1301
01:14:00,840 --> 01:14:03,120
Speaker 1: A little bit, but he needs tone it down a lot, folks.

1302
01:14:03,880 --> 01:14:05,479
Speaker 1: He needs to tone it down a whole heck of

1303
01:14:05,520 --> 01:14:08,240
Speaker 1: a lot. And what we're seeing is there's a desperation here,

1304
01:14:08,840 --> 01:14:13,280
Speaker 1: a desperation to justify after the fact actions that were

1305
01:14:13,320 --> 01:14:17,160
Speaker 1: taking uh in a in a frenzy of anxiety at

1306
01:14:17,160 --> 01:14:19,720
Speaker 1: the top level of the Obama administration. That's right, it

1307
01:14:19,720 --> 01:14:22,559
Speaker 1: was under Obama's watch. These are executive branch officials. Do

1308
01:14:22,640 --> 01:14:26,280
Speaker 1: not forget that. And now they're using the bully pulpit.

1309
01:14:26,320 --> 01:14:29,640
Speaker 1: Now they're using you know, TV appearances in books to

1310
01:14:29,720 --> 01:14:31,800
Speaker 1: try and create a narrative where they won't look like

1311
01:14:31,840 --> 01:14:33,439
Speaker 1: the villains in the end. But I have to tell you,

1312
01:14:33,479 --> 01:14:34,920
Speaker 1: I think that Brennan and all the rest of the

1313
01:14:34,920 --> 01:14:38,719
Speaker 1: deep Staters are going to look like the villains. Buck

1314
01:14:38,800 --> 01:14:44,520
Speaker 1: Sexton remission, decoding the news and disseminating information with actionable intelligence,

1315
01:14:46,680 --> 01:14:50,479
Speaker 1: Make no mistake, American, You're a great American again. This

1316
01:14:50,960 --> 01:15:07,120
Speaker 1: is the buck Sexton shows set No how the President

1317
01:15:07,120 --> 01:15:09,080
Speaker 1: continues to do this, And I hope he adds I'm

1318
01:15:09,120 --> 01:15:11,320
Speaker 1: a Rosa to the list because if she has a clearance,

1319
01:15:11,560 --> 01:15:14,799
Speaker 1: she too, because of her actions, should have it revoked.

1320
01:15:15,040 --> 01:15:16,320
Speaker 1: I don't know if I put m Rossa in the

1321
01:15:16,320 --> 01:15:18,800
Speaker 1: same category of people signed those letters but film. But

1322
01:15:19,040 --> 01:15:24,640
Speaker 1: I imagine you want to react profitable Paris. When I

1323
01:15:24,760 --> 01:15:28,080
Speaker 1: am requested to sit on an advisory board, let me

1324
01:15:28,160 --> 01:15:30,840
Speaker 1: ask you one question, how much do you think I'm

1325
01:15:30,840 --> 01:15:33,200
Speaker 1: paid to do that? At the requestion to the US government,

1326
01:15:33,320 --> 01:15:35,880
Speaker 1: give me one answer and you got ten seconds? How

1327
01:15:36,000 --> 01:15:39,280
Speaker 1: much I'll give I'll ask you a question, how much

1328
01:15:39,280 --> 01:15:41,840
Speaker 1: are you paid for your answer? The question acting gig

1329
01:15:42,400 --> 01:15:44,920
Speaker 1: for for being a for They have no contract with

1330
01:15:44,960 --> 01:15:47,040
Speaker 1: the US government that paid more. I'm not talking hearing.

1331
01:15:47,120 --> 01:15:53,000
Speaker 1: This is the thing I'm not talking about that I'm

1332
01:15:53,000 --> 01:15:58,840
Speaker 1: not talking about. There you go CNN everyone, that's how

1333
01:15:58,880 --> 01:16:02,519
Speaker 1: things go over there, the the the global leader in

1334
01:16:02,720 --> 01:16:06,880
Speaker 1: cable news that there he had a former former c

1335
01:16:07,080 --> 01:16:13,160
Speaker 1: I a senior executive, Phil Mud, and a and and

1336
01:16:13,280 --> 01:16:16,160
Speaker 1: Paris Denard, whom I think he's a Trump supporter who

1337
01:16:16,160 --> 01:16:18,280
Speaker 1: goes on CNN, one of the very very few. And

1338
01:16:18,280 --> 01:16:20,679
Speaker 1: they're arguing over the security clearance thing. And you'll notice

1339
01:16:20,720 --> 01:16:25,639
Speaker 1: that that Phil Mud sounds really upset over this and

1340
01:16:25,760 --> 01:16:28,120
Speaker 1: made this very personal. And I can tell you know

1341
01:16:28,160 --> 01:16:31,799
Speaker 1: because because the news today is that there are more

1342
01:16:31,800 --> 01:16:36,720
Speaker 1: people who are joining Brennan's clearance crusade here right, there's

1343
01:16:36,720 --> 01:16:38,880
Speaker 1: there's even a greater number, I think a hundred and

1344
01:16:38,920 --> 01:16:42,040
Speaker 1: sixty five people. And Mike Hayden has added his name

1345
01:16:42,080 --> 01:16:45,280
Speaker 1: to the list. And you know, a lot of people,

1346
01:16:45,320 --> 01:16:47,559
Speaker 1: a lot of normal Americans look at this instead of themselves.

1347
01:16:47,720 --> 01:16:50,479
Speaker 1: Hold on a second, why am I supposed to care

1348
01:16:50,600 --> 01:16:53,840
Speaker 1: about Brennan losing his clearance? Brennan no longer works for

1349
01:16:53,840 --> 01:16:56,000
Speaker 1: the government. I mean, that's one part of this that

1350
01:16:56,000 --> 01:16:58,040
Speaker 1: no one seems willing to give me a straight answer them,

1351
01:16:58,040 --> 01:17:01,920
Speaker 1: which is why has this become the thing that the

1352
01:17:02,040 --> 01:17:05,360
Speaker 1: national security establishment is rallying around. You have, on the

1353
01:17:05,400 --> 01:17:09,160
Speaker 1: one hand, as I've been discussing with you, people claiming

1354
01:17:09,200 --> 01:17:12,959
Speaker 1: the President of the United States is a trader, okay,

1355
01:17:13,000 --> 01:17:16,839
Speaker 1: and including former intelligence agency heads to the general public

1356
01:17:17,160 --> 01:17:21,559
Speaker 1: understandably thinks must have some inside track on the president's treason.

1357
01:17:21,800 --> 01:17:25,120
Speaker 1: They're silent on that. But when it comes to Brennan's clearance,

1358
01:17:25,120 --> 01:17:28,280
Speaker 1: we're supposed to think that this is how you know,

1359
01:17:28,320 --> 01:17:32,360
Speaker 1: the the American people on every water tower across the country,

1360
01:17:32,400 --> 01:17:35,400
Speaker 1: there are all these different you know, they're all these

1361
01:17:35,439 --> 01:17:38,960
Speaker 1: different posters and and and placards, that are being put

1362
01:17:39,000 --> 01:17:42,439
Speaker 1: up about Brennan's clearance. You know in small towns across America,

1363
01:17:42,680 --> 01:17:46,960
Speaker 1: give Brennan back his clearance. We don't care. I don't care,

1364
01:17:48,320 --> 01:17:51,120
Speaker 1: you know. I asked the former c I a uh

1365
01:17:51,240 --> 01:17:53,880
Speaker 1: public affairs director. I forget what a specific title was,

1366
01:17:53,920 --> 01:17:56,080
Speaker 1: but a former CI executive that I sat on my

1367
01:17:56,080 --> 01:17:59,479
Speaker 1: show here in d C. I said, can't you just

1368
01:17:59,600 --> 01:18:01,519
Speaker 1: give the eyes clearance back if you really want to,

1369
01:18:01,560 --> 01:18:03,439
Speaker 1: if you really want to reinstate him. If the government

1370
01:18:03,439 --> 01:18:06,400
Speaker 1: wants to bring Brennan in, you know what, they can

1371
01:18:06,439 --> 01:18:09,880
Speaker 1: reinstate his clearance. If President Trump was like, oh my gosh,

1372
01:18:09,920 --> 01:18:13,599
Speaker 1: we desperately need John Brennan's advice on this one, then

1373
01:18:13,640 --> 01:18:16,559
Speaker 1: they could bring him in. The next administration could bring

1374
01:18:16,680 --> 01:18:18,360
Speaker 1: him in. And people who are saying, oh, this is

1375
01:18:18,400 --> 01:18:21,360
Speaker 1: so politicized, what I want to say is yeah, but

1376
01:18:21,400 --> 01:18:26,559
Speaker 1: this is an extreme situation. Brennan is the extreme here. Well,

1377
01:18:26,560 --> 01:18:30,400
Speaker 1: what he's doing is unethical, folks. He is undermining the

1378
01:18:30,520 --> 01:18:35,240
Speaker 1: commander in chief of this country and using the perception

1379
01:18:35,360 --> 01:18:39,720
Speaker 1: of his super user access to classified information to do it.

1380
01:18:40,600 --> 01:18:42,960
Speaker 1: And so the presidents like, well, no more classified for you.

1381
01:18:43,000 --> 01:18:47,320
Speaker 1: By the way, it is so interesting how upset these

1382
01:18:47,320 --> 01:18:49,599
Speaker 1: guys all get, including film. Oh when you talk about

1383
01:18:49,600 --> 01:18:52,000
Speaker 1: how you know we don't necessarily need their clearance. The

1384
01:18:52,040 --> 01:18:56,519
Speaker 1: intelligence community is vast. There are so many people working

1385
01:18:56,520 --> 01:18:59,960
Speaker 1: on all these issues. I can't think of a situation,

1386
01:19:00,000 --> 01:19:02,640
Speaker 1: aation where we would have been at a loss. You

1387
01:19:02,640 --> 01:19:05,439
Speaker 1: know they do, they do outgoing briefings and for the

1388
01:19:05,880 --> 01:19:08,160
Speaker 1: incoming team if there's a new CIA director. I mean,

1389
01:19:08,200 --> 01:19:11,240
Speaker 1: of course, all that bureaucratic stuff happens. I can't even

1390
01:19:11,320 --> 01:19:13,840
Speaker 1: fathom a situation where this would be necessary. I can't

1391
01:19:13,880 --> 01:19:16,599
Speaker 1: even think of it. And they're acting like, oh, well,

1392
01:19:16,720 --> 01:19:18,519
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that doesn't mean it can happen. Yeah,

1393
01:19:18,520 --> 01:19:21,719
Speaker 1: I'm sure they bring in former people and but generally speaking,

1394
01:19:21,840 --> 01:19:24,679
Speaker 1: let me tell you something, the former director and they're

1395
01:19:24,800 --> 01:19:27,640
Speaker 1: really necessarily like, I want to have that much of

1396
01:19:27,680 --> 01:19:30,000
Speaker 1: the or rather, the current director doesn't want to have

1397
01:19:30,000 --> 01:19:32,040
Speaker 1: that much of the former director poking around and telling

1398
01:19:32,080 --> 01:19:34,960
Speaker 1: him what to do. Trust me on that one. But

1399
01:19:35,080 --> 01:19:38,960
Speaker 1: this is just again the the outrage machinery exhausts itself here.

1400
01:19:39,160 --> 01:19:41,479
Speaker 1: I we don't really care. I don't really care, you

1401
01:19:41,520 --> 01:19:44,479
Speaker 1: don't really care. It's one guy who does not have

1402
01:19:44,520 --> 01:19:47,679
Speaker 1: a constitutional right to have a top level security clearance,

1403
01:19:47,960 --> 01:19:50,160
Speaker 1: and he's going around on TV being a maniac. By

1404
01:19:50,160 --> 01:19:52,519
Speaker 1: the way, everybody that I know in the business, and

1405
01:19:52,560 --> 01:19:54,479
Speaker 1: I know a lot of people, think that Brennan has

1406
01:19:54,479 --> 01:19:57,200
Speaker 1: not just been saying things that are irresponsible, but has

1407
01:19:57,200 --> 01:19:59,760
Speaker 1: been crossing the line here and talking to press about

1408
01:19:59,760 --> 01:20:02,400
Speaker 1: things is not supposed to. Now that's not on the

1409
01:20:02,400 --> 01:20:06,160
Speaker 1: record yet, we don't know, but I'm if I'm placing

1410
01:20:06,240 --> 01:20:08,040
Speaker 1: bets my friends. I think it's just a matter of

1411
01:20:08,040 --> 01:20:10,160
Speaker 1: time before we do find that out. But oh, by

1412
01:20:10,200 --> 01:20:12,639
Speaker 1: the way, it actually gets a little bit crazier here

1413
01:20:12,680 --> 01:20:16,519
Speaker 1: between Dennard and Paris Denard and film mud over at CNN.

1414
01:20:17,760 --> 01:20:20,280
Speaker 1: It devolves, folks. Get ready for it. Here it comes

1415
01:20:20,560 --> 01:20:22,840
Speaker 1: your role with the federal government. I'm talking about the

1416
01:20:22,880 --> 01:20:28,240
Speaker 1: time that a sultan and a contractor, the consulting firms

1417
01:20:28,240 --> 01:20:30,559
Speaker 1: that they form and that you all get is because

1418
01:20:30,640 --> 01:20:33,519
Speaker 1: you get more money when having a consultant before having

1419
01:20:33,640 --> 01:20:36,599
Speaker 1: the security class like that doesn't happen. I have zero

1420
01:20:36,720 --> 01:20:39,920
Speaker 1: consulting relationship with the US government. Zero. I'm not talking

1421
01:20:40,080 --> 01:20:42,400
Speaker 1: feel that's a good talking point. I'm not talking about

1422
01:20:42,439 --> 01:20:45,120
Speaker 1: relationship with the government. I'm talking about in the private sector.

1423
01:20:45,200 --> 01:20:48,000
Speaker 1: When you have a security fan and you keep relationships

1424
01:20:48,000 --> 01:20:51,320
Speaker 1: with the private sector that involved my security clearance? Zero

1425
01:20:51,680 --> 01:20:55,080
Speaker 1: who says that we're talking about Phil mud and his contracts.

1426
01:20:55,520 --> 01:20:57,479
Speaker 1: We're talking about you know or not we but but

1427
01:20:57,560 --> 01:21:01,080
Speaker 1: Paris Dennard is actually talking about in general secure any clearances.

1428
01:21:01,120 --> 01:21:04,240
Speaker 1: This is just true, folks. You are worth more as

1429
01:21:04,240 --> 01:21:08,599
Speaker 1: a private sector contractor who works on government contracts if

1430
01:21:08,600 --> 01:21:10,919
Speaker 1: you have a clearance and if you don't. This everybody

1431
01:21:10,920 --> 01:21:13,200
Speaker 1: knows this. I don't know why Phil Mudd is acting

1432
01:21:13,240 --> 01:21:16,280
Speaker 1: like this is all about him, but he goes even further.

1433
01:21:16,640 --> 01:21:19,880
Speaker 1: I get zero dollars from consulting companies that deal with

1434
01:21:20,000 --> 01:21:22,840
Speaker 1: US government. Are we clear? Well, I will be clear

1435
01:21:22,920 --> 01:21:25,360
Speaker 1: and saying that everybody in Washington, d c Knows. If

1436
01:21:25,400 --> 01:21:27,200
Speaker 1: you don't want to be honest about it, that's on you.

1437
01:21:27,439 --> 01:21:29,640
Speaker 1: But if you have a security clearance and you keep it,

1438
01:21:29,840 --> 01:21:34,360
Speaker 1: you can do money to get out. It's not your show.

1439
01:21:36,680 --> 01:21:41,160
Speaker 1: Don't be self defensive about this. I mean we we

1440
01:21:41,240 --> 01:21:44,160
Speaker 1: had to actually edit it out. Phil Mud there, CNN's

1441
01:21:44,640 --> 01:21:48,840
Speaker 1: paid on air analysts was was dropping dropped an s

1442
01:21:48,880 --> 01:21:51,120
Speaker 1: bomb there at the end that that's how crazy this

1443
01:21:51,160 --> 01:21:54,160
Speaker 1: whole thing made him and you have to wonder, folks,

1444
01:21:54,800 --> 01:21:56,720
Speaker 1: you know what, what could push people to take this

1445
01:21:56,800 --> 01:22:00,679
Speaker 1: show personally. You'll notice in the in the era of Trump,

1446
01:22:00,800 --> 01:22:04,800
Speaker 1: this is a constant theme that and anything that is

1447
01:22:04,840 --> 01:22:09,120
Speaker 1: Trump related gets the the anti trumpers thinking about it

1448
01:22:09,120 --> 01:22:11,519
Speaker 1: in terms of how it affects them. You know, it's like, oh,

1449
01:22:11,640 --> 01:22:13,600
Speaker 1: how dare you say this thing about me? No one

1450
01:22:13,640 --> 01:22:17,040
Speaker 1: said anything about film mun Paris Dear didn't saying that

1451
01:22:17,120 --> 01:22:19,240
Speaker 1: film Mont. I'm not saying anything about well, I'm making

1452
01:22:19,240 --> 01:22:22,040
Speaker 1: fun of him freaking out on on CNN. But you know,

1453
01:22:22,400 --> 01:22:24,720
Speaker 1: one of the other promise here is that the crazier

1454
01:22:25,360 --> 01:22:27,479
Speaker 1: you get on air, and this is true of a

1455
01:22:27,560 --> 01:22:31,840
Speaker 1: lot of anti trumpers out there, the crazier you get

1456
01:22:31,880 --> 01:22:35,240
Speaker 1: on air, and the more extreme the articles you write

1457
01:22:35,280 --> 01:22:39,000
Speaker 1: and the more outrageous the allegations you make against this president,

1458
01:22:39,640 --> 01:22:44,200
Speaker 1: the more the left praises you, you know, the more

1459
01:22:44,280 --> 01:22:46,600
Speaker 1: they think that you're actually a real hero for the

1460
01:22:46,680 --> 01:22:48,920
Speaker 1: cause and that you're somebody who's really committed that you're

1461
01:22:48,920 --> 01:22:50,439
Speaker 1: trying to do the work. You know, you're trying to

1462
01:22:50,920 --> 01:22:53,120
Speaker 1: take down this presidency. You're you're trying to be the

1463
01:22:53,160 --> 01:22:56,120
Speaker 1: one that makes sure that you know that the American

1464
01:22:56,160 --> 01:22:59,080
Speaker 1: people are safe from the tyranny of Trump is um

1465
01:22:59,120 --> 01:23:00,880
Speaker 1: but the clearance is who has been. It's been known

1466
01:23:00,880 --> 01:23:02,799
Speaker 1: for a long time. One of the problems the federal

1467
01:23:02,800 --> 01:23:04,800
Speaker 1: government has had, stretching back to my time in the

1468
01:23:04,840 --> 01:23:08,880
Speaker 1: federal government, is people who take a government job and

1469
01:23:08,920 --> 01:23:11,639
Speaker 1: then jump ship and they keep that clearance work that's

1470
01:23:11,640 --> 01:23:14,360
Speaker 1: done in their background, and then they monetize it in

1471
01:23:14,400 --> 01:23:16,080
Speaker 1: the private sector and go back and work on a

1472
01:23:16,120 --> 01:23:19,519
Speaker 1: government contract somewhere. This this is just these are facts.

1473
01:23:19,560 --> 01:23:22,479
Speaker 1: This is not someone's opinion. That's what happens. So for

1474
01:23:22,560 --> 01:23:24,960
Speaker 1: phil Mud to act like this is some you know,

1475
01:23:25,120 --> 01:23:28,160
Speaker 1: terrible slight some insult against him and his family and

1476
01:23:28,200 --> 01:23:30,040
Speaker 1: everything else or pe Well he didn't say his family,

1477
01:23:30,080 --> 01:23:31,280
Speaker 1: but you know what I mean. To act like this

1478
01:23:31,320 --> 01:23:35,120
Speaker 1: is some blood feud, it's just crazy. But you know,

1479
01:23:35,160 --> 01:23:39,080
Speaker 1: I I I'm running out of adjectives to describe the

1480
01:23:39,120 --> 01:23:43,599
Speaker 1: way Democrats react to Trump on TV now, and I'm

1481
01:23:43,640 --> 01:23:45,639
Speaker 1: running out of ways to talk about this. I've described

1482
01:23:45,680 --> 01:23:48,320
Speaker 1: it as pathological. I've described it as really a as

1483
01:23:48,360 --> 01:23:51,960
Speaker 1: an illness. I think we're there. Uh, this is this

1484
01:23:52,040 --> 01:23:54,880
Speaker 1: is not a normal time in American politics at all.

1485
01:23:55,200 --> 01:23:58,599
Speaker 1: It's not just that things are our partisan and nasty.

1486
01:23:59,120 --> 01:24:03,240
Speaker 1: It's that you can't even engage on the middle ground

1487
01:24:03,280 --> 01:24:06,400
Speaker 1: of hey, let's at least keep some decorum here. And

1488
01:24:06,439 --> 01:24:08,799
Speaker 1: by the way, did go on CNN and just start cursing?

1489
01:24:09,360 --> 01:24:11,280
Speaker 1: You know, But he's not gonna get suspended for that.

1490
01:24:11,360 --> 01:24:13,120
Speaker 1: He's not gonna get talked to for that. You know.

1491
01:24:13,360 --> 01:24:17,479
Speaker 1: I get yelled at if I ever talked when Dravid

1492
01:24:17,560 --> 01:24:21,320
Speaker 1: Gergen was talking about Nixon and Reagan and Ford. And

1493
01:24:21,720 --> 01:24:23,479
Speaker 1: you know, if I said anything and there was any

1494
01:24:23,479 --> 01:24:26,320
Speaker 1: cross talk with gurgling with Gurgan back in my CNN days,

1495
01:24:26,479 --> 01:24:29,280
Speaker 1: they'd pull me aside and give me a time out,

1496
01:24:29,360 --> 01:24:30,880
Speaker 1: you know, make me wear the dunce cap in the

1497
01:24:30,920 --> 01:24:34,639
Speaker 1: corner by myself. But you if you're trashing a Trump person,

1498
01:24:34,720 --> 01:24:36,800
Speaker 1: you can pretty much do anything, you know, and they'll

1499
01:24:36,800 --> 01:24:38,000
Speaker 1: just they'll just let you go. By the way. That's

1500
01:24:38,000 --> 01:24:39,880
Speaker 1: why I would never That's why I wouldn't go on CNN. Now.

1501
01:24:39,920 --> 01:24:41,920
Speaker 1: I mean, Paris will handle it, good for him, but

1502
01:24:42,720 --> 01:24:44,479
Speaker 1: I have no interest because they have no interest in

1503
01:24:44,560 --> 01:24:47,080
Speaker 1: having a real conversation because CNN decided to go to

1504
01:24:47,160 --> 01:24:49,920
Speaker 1: war against this president. Don't ever forget that that was

1505
01:24:50,000 --> 01:24:54,640
Speaker 1: reported and I know who actually got that initial information,

1506
01:24:54,680 --> 01:24:57,240
Speaker 1: and it's real. CNN said that they were going to

1507
01:24:57,280 --> 01:24:59,760
Speaker 1: war against the president, all right, that was a thing

1508
01:24:59,800 --> 01:25:03,479
Speaker 1: that was said and overheard in the vicinity of the

1509
01:25:03,520 --> 01:25:06,479
Speaker 1: head of CNN, Jeff Sucker. They have gone to war

1510
01:25:06,520 --> 01:25:10,840
Speaker 1: against this president and they are losing. I know it

1511
01:25:10,880 --> 01:25:13,519
Speaker 1: can be tempting to get sucked in by the latest

1512
01:25:13,760 --> 01:25:17,720
Speaker 1: Macha green foam SOI latte nonsense. But folks, if you

1513
01:25:17,760 --> 01:25:20,639
Speaker 1: want to drink all American coffee from an all American

1514
01:25:20,680 --> 01:25:24,439
Speaker 1: coffee company, you've only got one answer, one choice out there,

1515
01:25:24,560 --> 01:25:27,760
Speaker 1: black rifle coffee. I drink black rifle every day. In fact,

1516
01:25:27,800 --> 01:25:30,519

1531
01:26:26,720 --> 01:26:30,320
Speaker 1: my friend and who tells crazy lies about me. Uh

1532
01:26:30,800 --> 01:26:33,720
Speaker 1: is thrown off Twitter, I think, and Facebook and a

1533
01:26:33,720 --> 01:26:39,880
Speaker 1: few of the platforms. I think he's going to. Uh. Well,

1534
01:26:40,640 --> 01:26:42,679
Speaker 1: if you're a liberal, you're supposed to be for free speech.

1535
01:26:42,720 --> 01:26:45,320
Speaker 1: That's free speech for the speech you hate. That's what

1536
01:26:45,439 --> 01:26:49,280
Speaker 1: free speech means. We're losing the thread of the concepts

1537
01:26:49,280 --> 01:26:51,639
Speaker 1: that are important to this country, and you care about

1538
01:26:51,640 --> 01:26:53,880
Speaker 1: the real American where you don't and if you do,

1539
01:26:54,000 --> 01:26:56,839
Speaker 1: which goes for every side. I don't like Alex Jones,

1540
01:26:57,400 --> 01:27:00,559
Speaker 1: but Alex Jones gets to speak. Everybody get to speak.

1541
01:27:01,400 --> 01:27:04,439
Speaker 1: You know. I don't really like Alex Jones either, so

1542
01:27:05,040 --> 01:27:07,479
Speaker 1: and from what I understand, he doesn't really like me.

1543
01:27:07,920 --> 01:27:10,960
Speaker 1: This is from all Access dot Com. Ten questions for

1544
01:27:11,040 --> 01:27:14,240
Speaker 1: Buck Sexton. I never even knew who this guy was

1545
01:27:14,240 --> 01:27:15,720
Speaker 1: when I saw him. But I said, that guy is

1546
01:27:15,760 --> 01:27:19,320
Speaker 1: a government agent. The secure look, the satisfied look. So

1547
01:27:19,400 --> 01:27:22,120
Speaker 1: let's put aside for a second that Alex Jones is

1548
01:27:22,360 --> 01:27:26,400
Speaker 1: a crazy person who is completely unethical and his analysis

1549
01:27:26,479 --> 01:27:30,599
Speaker 1: and says things that are both deeply laughable and deeply

1550
01:27:30,640 --> 01:27:33,360
Speaker 1: destructive at the same time, and that he made fun

1551
01:27:33,400 --> 01:27:35,799
Speaker 1: of my hair, which is a crime that will always

1552
01:27:35,800 --> 01:27:39,720
Speaker 1: be unforgivable. He is currently at the centerpiece of a

1553
01:27:39,880 --> 01:27:43,080
Speaker 1: national discussion over censorship, and that's where I want to

1554
01:27:43,120 --> 01:27:46,400
Speaker 1: go back to this clip. This exchange with Bill Maher

1555
01:27:46,720 --> 01:27:50,280
Speaker 1: was was pretty astonishing. Here. First of all, you had

1556
01:27:51,479 --> 01:27:56,360
Speaker 1: grand Holme Jennifer Granholm, whom I've debated once or twice before,

1557
01:27:56,640 --> 01:28:02,639
Speaker 1: she was the uh was the governor of and she's

1558
01:28:02,640 --> 01:28:07,680
Speaker 1: a Democrat governor of Michigan. Oh my gosh, Michigan. You

1559
01:28:07,760 --> 01:28:10,479
Speaker 1: made Jennifer Granham your governor. What the heck is wrong

1560
01:28:10,560 --> 01:28:15,479
Speaker 1: with you? Guys? Anyway, you saw the you saw that exchange,

1561
01:28:15,479 --> 01:28:20,519
Speaker 1: and she goes, yes, Alex Jones, he's silenced. And Bill Maher,

1562
01:28:20,760 --> 01:28:23,920
Speaker 1: who has made his whole life essentially making jokes and

1563
01:28:23,920 --> 01:28:27,640
Speaker 1: often offending people, is like, no, Liberals, you're not supposed

1564
01:28:27,680 --> 01:28:30,400
Speaker 1: to do this. You're not supposed to be the ones

1565
01:28:30,760 --> 01:28:36,559
Speaker 1: cheering anyone getting completely shut down and banned from the

1566
01:28:36,600 --> 01:28:40,599
Speaker 1: public square because of speech. And I know people keep saying,

1567
01:28:41,120 --> 01:28:43,920
Speaker 1: uh that, they keep bringing up all the time that

1568
01:28:44,000 --> 01:28:47,320
Speaker 1: Twitter and Facebook and these are private companies. Well, first

1569
01:28:47,360 --> 01:28:50,680
Speaker 1: of all, as liberals will tell you, private companies are

1570
01:28:50,680 --> 01:28:54,880
Speaker 1: regulated in all kinds of ways. So the national conversation

1571
01:28:54,960 --> 01:28:57,760
Speaker 1: about what private companies that are as large and powerful

1572
01:28:57,800 --> 01:29:02,599
Speaker 1: as Facebook and Twitter, how that conversation goes can affect

1573
01:29:03,000 --> 01:29:06,400
Speaker 1: the legislation and the regulation of what's going on here.

1574
01:29:06,520 --> 01:29:09,360
Speaker 1: Are they treated as utilities? Will people try to break

1575
01:29:09,400 --> 01:29:12,800
Speaker 1: them up and say that they are monopolies? Although I

1576
01:29:12,800 --> 01:29:15,280
Speaker 1: think if nothing else, what we've seen here is that

1577
01:29:15,320 --> 01:29:19,400
Speaker 1: there's a a chink in the armor of some of

1578
01:29:19,400 --> 01:29:22,559
Speaker 1: these social media platforms. Now they're no longer considered to

1579
01:29:22,560 --> 01:29:27,680
Speaker 1: be quite as invulnerable because if half, if half of

1580
01:29:27,720 --> 01:29:30,760
Speaker 1: the people that are on these platforms, at least in America,

1581
01:29:31,040 --> 01:29:34,519
Speaker 1: feel like they're being targeted for their ideas, there's certainly

1582
01:29:34,560 --> 01:29:38,040
Speaker 1: an alternative, or there there could be an alternative out there.

1583
01:29:38,840 --> 01:29:41,160
Speaker 1: So I do think that there are long term implications

1584
01:29:41,240 --> 01:29:43,920
Speaker 1: for how these social media companies will do and how

1585
01:29:43,960 --> 01:29:48,639
Speaker 1: they will function. But notice how more has to slap

1586
01:29:48,720 --> 01:29:53,160
Speaker 1: down grant homes stupidity there for a second. Because it's

1587
01:29:53,160 --> 01:29:54,960
Speaker 1: supposed to be the liberals who are the ones who

1588
01:29:54,960 --> 01:29:57,120
Speaker 1: want free speech. It's supposed to be that this is

1589
01:29:57,160 --> 01:29:59,200
Speaker 1: what is part of the lore right, although that's never

1590
01:29:59,240 --> 01:30:03,280
Speaker 1: really been true. They want free speech when it suits them,

1591
01:30:03,439 --> 01:30:08,240
Speaker 1: and they've always been pushing for hate speech laws and

1592
01:30:08,240 --> 01:30:10,880
Speaker 1: and you know, in form in my lifetime at least,

1593
01:30:10,880 --> 01:30:12,400
Speaker 1: I mean, I won't pretend to know what things were

1594
01:30:12,439 --> 01:30:15,000
Speaker 1: like from the sixties through the through the eighties, but

1595
01:30:15,439 --> 01:30:18,439
Speaker 1: starting from as long as far back as I can remember,

1596
01:30:18,600 --> 01:30:20,600
Speaker 1: liberals are the ones who want the government to be

1597
01:30:20,640 --> 01:30:23,559
Speaker 1: in a position of authority to shut down the speech

1598
01:30:23,640 --> 01:30:27,360
Speaker 1: that they do not like. And this is a big

1599
01:30:27,439 --> 01:30:30,760
Speaker 1: change for them. I mean culturally, they now have to

1600
01:30:31,600 --> 01:30:33,640
Speaker 1: deal with the fact that they are no longer a

1601
01:30:33,680 --> 01:30:36,920
Speaker 1: party that's all about the Berkeley free speech movement. And

1602
01:30:37,120 --> 01:30:41,880
Speaker 1: with this deep platforming effort and speech equals violence and

1603
01:30:41,920 --> 01:30:45,920
Speaker 1: all these different constructs that they've come up with to

1604
01:30:45,960 --> 01:30:49,280
Speaker 1: try and limit speech that they don't like, it's increasingly

1605
01:30:49,360 --> 01:30:53,040
Speaker 1: clear that liberals are bracing a really embracing a really

1606
01:30:53,120 --> 01:30:57,840
Speaker 1: authoritarian approach on these issues, and they no longer are

1607
01:30:57,880 --> 01:30:59,960
Speaker 1: a part. That's why I hate calling them liberals. They

1608
01:31:00,000 --> 01:31:04,559
Speaker 1: are anti liberty. There it's a misnomer to call them liberals.

1609
01:31:04,840 --> 01:31:08,920
Speaker 1: It's really incorrect. Uh, you could say they are progressives,

1610
01:31:08,960 --> 01:31:12,040
Speaker 1: their socialists. Really, you know, we we don't like to

1611
01:31:12,080 --> 01:31:13,559
Speaker 1: say this, we don't like to talk about it, but

1612
01:31:13,600 --> 01:31:16,720
Speaker 1: you could say they're democratic socialists. But this is really

1613
01:31:16,800 --> 01:31:19,800
Speaker 1: what the Democratic Party in this country has become. And

1614
01:31:19,840 --> 01:31:22,439
Speaker 1: you know that they like to just constantly change the

1615
01:31:22,520 --> 01:31:25,400
Speaker 1: language and and hide from the truth. But what do

1616
01:31:25,439 --> 01:31:30,120
Speaker 1: they want? More government, higher taxes, government in control of businesses,

1617
01:31:30,120 --> 01:31:33,560
Speaker 1: government and control of of the day to day operations

1618
01:31:33,640 --> 01:31:38,320
Speaker 1: via regulation, and massive taxation, and enormous safety net. Right,

1619
01:31:38,479 --> 01:31:42,320
Speaker 1: these are socialist ideas, So why can't they just be

1620
01:31:42,360 --> 01:31:44,640
Speaker 1: honest about it? No, we have to call them democrats

1621
01:31:44,720 --> 01:31:48,280
Speaker 1: because what they believe in, they believe in democracy, and

1622
01:31:48,320 --> 01:31:50,200
Speaker 1: we don't. Is that really what the idea is supposed

1623
01:31:50,200 --> 01:31:55,880
Speaker 1: to be? Here? So much dishonesty in the modern Democratic

1624
01:31:55,880 --> 01:31:59,320
Speaker 1: Party's philosophy. But that's not gonna change anytime soon. So

1625
01:31:59,360 --> 01:32:01,200
Speaker 1: I'm not even sure how helpful it is for us

1626
01:32:01,240 --> 01:32:04,760
Speaker 1: to bemoan that. But I did. What really struck me

1627
01:32:04,800 --> 01:32:07,200
Speaker 1: there was that initially you had the cheering for Yeah,

1628
01:32:07,240 --> 01:32:11,280
Speaker 1: Alex Jones is gone. Bill Maher, who on some issues

1629
01:32:11,320 --> 01:32:14,080
Speaker 1: is horrendous, but on free speech and on Islam, he's

1630
01:32:14,080 --> 01:32:17,040
Speaker 1: pretty good. Bill Maher has to say to her, what

1631
01:32:17,080 --> 01:32:21,000
Speaker 1: are you doing cheering for censorship? You know, the liberals

1632
01:32:21,000 --> 01:32:24,560
Speaker 1: are the ones folks who say that pornography is free expression.

1633
01:32:24,760 --> 01:32:26,599
Speaker 1: The liberals are the ones who have been saying for

1634
01:32:26,640 --> 01:32:29,519
Speaker 1: a long time that you know, a crucifix and urine

1635
01:32:29,560 --> 01:32:32,479
Speaker 1: as a as a taxpayer funded art exhibit, you know

1636
01:32:32,560 --> 01:32:34,960
Speaker 1: that can't be sensored. I mean, they're the ones who

1637
01:32:34,960 --> 01:32:39,040
Speaker 1: are always saying no rules, no rules, offensiveness against Christianity

1638
01:32:39,160 --> 01:32:42,360
Speaker 1: is fine, be as blasphemous as you want, do whatever.

1639
01:32:42,479 --> 01:32:46,400
Speaker 1: You know, that's been their position. But now when it

1640
01:32:46,439 --> 01:32:48,600
Speaker 1: comes to some of their favorite groups, or when it

1641
01:32:48,640 --> 01:32:51,240
Speaker 1: comes to issues where they feel like they have an

1642
01:32:51,280 --> 01:32:56,920
Speaker 1: increasing amount of power, they're just embracing censorship. I mean

1643
01:32:56,920 --> 01:32:59,880
Speaker 1: that they are embracing it under these different rubrics that

1644
01:33:00,080 --> 01:33:02,880
Speaker 1: calling it d platform ng or they'll you know, they'll

1645
01:33:02,880 --> 01:33:06,280
Speaker 1: call it something else, right, they'll say that a conversational

1646
01:33:06,360 --> 01:33:10,320
Speaker 1: health to borrow from the Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey. But

1647
01:33:10,520 --> 01:33:14,040
Speaker 1: the truth is that they are abandoning something that for

1648
01:33:14,080 --> 01:33:17,000
Speaker 1: a long time they held to be central to their

1649
01:33:17,040 --> 01:33:20,320
Speaker 1: ideological identity. Whether it was true or not a separate issue,

1650
01:33:20,760 --> 01:33:23,160
Speaker 1: and I would say to you that it's untrue. But

1651
01:33:23,320 --> 01:33:26,640
Speaker 1: they are now openly just advocating for things that we

1652
01:33:26,720 --> 01:33:29,400
Speaker 1: don't like. People should not be allowed to say and

1653
01:33:29,439 --> 01:33:33,040
Speaker 1: should be punished for saying by private companies and in

1654
01:33:33,080 --> 01:33:37,799
Speaker 1: the public square. And it's a very small step for

1655
01:33:38,200 --> 01:33:41,680
Speaker 1: that to turn into government regulation. And by the way,

1656
01:33:41,720 --> 01:33:44,240
Speaker 1: they're already doing that. I mean, when you look at

1657
01:33:44,280 --> 01:33:47,680
Speaker 1: the way the laws are currently set up or the

1658
01:33:47,680 --> 01:33:50,599
Speaker 1: way some of these government bodies are set up, they

1659
01:33:50,600 --> 01:33:53,479
Speaker 1: are also trying to censor via the government. Don't forget that.

1660
01:33:53,520 --> 01:33:55,920
Speaker 1: I mean there they've gone back to the guy who

1661
01:33:55,960 --> 01:33:58,519
Speaker 1: didn't want to bake a gay wedding cake and try

1662
01:33:58,600 --> 01:34:01,520
Speaker 1: to make him bake a cake of Satan with a

1663
01:34:01,520 --> 01:34:03,280
Speaker 1: a sex toy on it. I mean, you know, the

1664
01:34:03,680 --> 01:34:06,000
Speaker 1: and the and the account of the Colorado Civil Rights

1665
01:34:06,080 --> 01:34:09,360
Speaker 1: or Human Rights Commission is going after the guy. So

1666
01:34:09,439 --> 01:34:13,960
Speaker 1: they are little petty authoritarians when it comes to speech,

1667
01:34:14,000 --> 01:34:16,920
Speaker 1: and that's really who democrats have becoming. I think Bill

1668
01:34:17,000 --> 01:34:19,759
Speaker 1: Maher maybe has realized this a little late in the game,

1669
01:34:19,840 --> 01:34:22,760
Speaker 1: but he's not about to change this anytime soon. That's

1670
01:34:22,760 --> 01:34:37,840
Speaker 1: who the Democrats have become. He's holding the line for

1671
01:34:37,920 --> 01:34:47,960
Speaker 1: America buck sex in his back. So I gathered with

1672
01:34:48,080 --> 01:34:50,960
Speaker 1: one of my conservative friends here in d C over

1673
01:34:51,000 --> 01:34:54,000
Speaker 1: the weekend. A buddy of mine. We got, you know,

1674
01:34:54,080 --> 01:34:57,639
Speaker 1: drinks and dinner. Ms. Molly was away at a bachelorette party,

1675
01:34:57,760 --> 01:34:59,880
Speaker 1: which is apparently a thing where a bunch of young

1676
01:35:00,080 --> 01:35:03,080
Speaker 1: m and all get together and do bachelorette things. I

1677
01:35:03,120 --> 01:35:05,880
Speaker 1: don't even know what that really means. But he asked

1678
01:35:05,920 --> 01:35:09,240
Speaker 1: me about whether I knew what happened to Colin Jost

1679
01:35:09,840 --> 01:35:12,200
Speaker 1: and I said, no, what are you talking about? Because

1680
01:35:12,680 --> 01:35:16,160
Speaker 1: he didn't know this. But as I mentioned you before, Colin,

1681
01:35:16,200 --> 01:35:19,599
Speaker 1: who is the weekend update anchor for Saturday Night Live,

1682
01:35:20,240 --> 01:35:24,080
Speaker 1: was my high school classmate and also on my debate team,

1683
01:35:24,120 --> 01:35:26,120
Speaker 1: and he's now was on my debate team and is

1684
01:35:26,120 --> 01:35:30,760
Speaker 1: now most famous for being the a cou trement of

1685
01:35:30,880 --> 01:35:34,760
Speaker 1: Scarlett Johanson, and he is dating Scarlett Johansson right now.

1686
01:35:35,360 --> 01:35:37,640
Speaker 1: But I had no idea that there was some controversy

1687
01:35:37,680 --> 01:35:40,920
Speaker 1: with with Colin, whom I haven't seen I bumped into

1688
01:35:40,920 --> 01:35:43,720
Speaker 1: on the street maybe a year or two ago. I

1689
01:35:43,760 --> 01:35:45,840
Speaker 1: haven't seen him, and I think SNL is a terrible

1690
01:35:45,880 --> 01:35:48,080
Speaker 1: and deeply unfunny show, so it's probably best that we

1691
01:35:48,120 --> 01:35:51,080
Speaker 1: don't talk about that very much. But Colin did say

1692
01:35:51,080 --> 01:35:54,560
Speaker 1: some stuff in response to it. Well, he was interviewed.

1693
01:35:55,120 --> 01:35:58,519
Speaker 1: He was interviewed because he's gonna be hosting the Emmy's

1694
01:35:58,640 --> 01:36:02,360
Speaker 1: with Michael Chay, who's co host on Weekend Update, and

1695
01:36:02,520 --> 01:36:04,519
Speaker 1: I it was a you know they had the it

1696
01:36:04,600 --> 01:36:08,080
Speaker 1: was a transcribed interview, and in response to one of

1697
01:36:08,120 --> 01:36:11,960
Speaker 1: the questions, Colin said this, I think most of the time,

1698
01:36:12,439 --> 01:36:16,599
Speaker 1: award shows are way too self serious and focused on

1699
01:36:16,640 --> 01:36:20,920
Speaker 1: things that of the country doesn't care about. This is

1700
01:36:20,960 --> 01:36:23,439
Speaker 1: to the Los Angeles Times. At the end of the day,

1701
01:36:23,560 --> 01:36:27,360
Speaker 1: it's adults getting trophies. Why should that be taken seriously?

1702
01:36:28,960 --> 01:36:31,439
Speaker 1: But I completely agree with Colin all this. I think

1703
01:36:31,439 --> 01:36:34,080
Speaker 1: he I think he couldn't be more correct. I think

1704
01:36:34,080 --> 01:36:36,719
Speaker 1: it is. The whole thing is ridiculous, and I'm glad

1705
01:36:36,720 --> 01:36:39,400
Speaker 1: that somebody's calling it out. Uh. And then he went

1706
01:36:39,400 --> 01:36:44,120
Speaker 1: on to say, remember when movies like Gladiator, which is amazing,

1707
01:36:44,320 --> 01:36:55,519
Speaker 1: by the way, are you not at the day. He

1708
01:36:55,560 --> 01:36:57,800
Speaker 1: went on to say, why can't fund good movies win?

1709
01:36:57,920 --> 01:37:01,479
Speaker 1: And not just artsy things. They're both good and fun,

1710
01:37:01,560 --> 01:37:04,880
Speaker 1: and sometimes the fun ones are harder, a lot harder

1711
01:37:04,880 --> 01:37:08,360
Speaker 1: to make. The Saturday Night Live star told the outlet,

1712
01:37:09,000 --> 01:37:11,080
Speaker 1: this to me is like not even It's not that

1713
01:37:11,120 --> 01:37:16,240
Speaker 1: it's not controversial. It's obviously objectively true. Right, there's so

1714
01:37:16,280 --> 01:37:18,680
Speaker 1: many movies. I've told you The Shape of Water is

1715
01:37:18,680 --> 01:37:21,360
Speaker 1: about a woman who has sex with her aquarium pet. Okay,

1716
01:37:21,360 --> 01:37:25,040
Speaker 1: that is a fact. These are terrible movies. And while

1717
01:37:25,080 --> 01:37:29,639
Speaker 1: I did see The Avengers, uh, Ultra whatever the most

1718
01:37:29,840 --> 01:37:32,040
Speaker 1: I can't remember what it was called now, you know,

1719
01:37:32,120 --> 01:37:35,360
Speaker 1: Forever War or something. It was awful. I couldn't even

1720
01:37:35,360 --> 01:37:37,719
Speaker 1: get through the first hour of it. Yeah, there's popular

1721
01:37:37,720 --> 01:37:40,439
Speaker 1: movies that are terrible. We don't have to pretend that

1722
01:37:40,600 --> 01:37:43,920
Speaker 1: artsy movies are good even when they're awful and unpopular.

1723
01:37:44,640 --> 01:37:47,519
Speaker 1: Well you think this was not just uncontroversial but a

1724
01:37:47,400 --> 01:37:52,280
Speaker 1: actually smart thing that Colin said. He got annihilated on

1725
01:37:52,360 --> 01:37:56,280
Speaker 1: Twitter for this over the weekend by journalists uh and

1726
01:37:56,320 --> 01:37:59,720
Speaker 1: people who wrote things like, quote, Colin Jost is just

1727
01:37:59,800 --> 01:38:02,679
Speaker 1: a loaf of wonder bread with a degree from Harvard

1728
01:38:02,840 --> 01:38:07,880
Speaker 1: and Colin Joe's favorite movies ranked Gladiator, Boondock Saints, Boondock Saints,

1729
01:38:07,880 --> 01:38:11,160
Speaker 1: Boondock Saints, Boondock Saints, Boondoc Saints. I mean, people were

1730
01:38:11,439 --> 01:38:15,800
Speaker 1: freaking out on him. He was trending on Twitter for

1731
01:38:15,920 --> 01:38:19,479
Speaker 1: a while because of this, because he said, maybe movies

1732
01:38:19,520 --> 01:38:23,519
Speaker 1: like Gladiator, and yeah, that's right, Braveheart, the greatest movie

1733
01:38:23,600 --> 01:38:28,080
Speaker 1: ever made. Would you be willing to train all the

1734
01:38:28,200 --> 01:38:32,040
Speaker 1: days from this day to that for one chats? Just

1735
01:38:32,320 --> 01:38:36,840
Speaker 1: one chat? Still don black here until our enemies then

1736
01:38:36,920 --> 01:38:43,599
Speaker 1: they may take on one, but they'll never take doesn't

1737
01:38:43,640 --> 01:38:46,640
Speaker 1: get any better than that, folks. But anyway, Yeah, you know,

1738
01:38:46,920 --> 01:38:49,880
Speaker 1: there was a time when great movies did win Oscars.

1739
01:38:49,920 --> 01:38:52,200
Speaker 1: But this that it forget about for a second that

1740
01:38:52,680 --> 01:38:55,920
Speaker 1: you know this SNL host and writer got dragged by

1741
01:38:55,920 --> 01:38:59,679
Speaker 1: the Twitter social justice mob for a completely inocuous comment.

1742
01:39:00,080 --> 01:39:04,920
Speaker 1: Expect craziness from them. Why why would this comment matter

1743
01:39:05,040 --> 01:39:09,320
Speaker 1: so much? Why do they care so much about award shows?

1744
01:39:09,360 --> 01:39:13,519
Speaker 1: Because clearly the progressive left and the social justice warriors

1745
01:39:14,240 --> 01:39:18,439
Speaker 1: really do care about this issue. They really do care

1746
01:39:18,479 --> 01:39:23,639
Speaker 1: that the Oscars continue to elevate movies about social justice

1747
01:39:24,280 --> 01:39:27,160
Speaker 1: right whether and and the Emmys give as many awards

1748
01:39:27,160 --> 01:39:32,560
Speaker 1: as possible to shows where there's an emphasis on transgender

1749
01:39:32,640 --> 01:39:37,479
Speaker 1: issues and transgender rights and whatever. The particular issue of

1750
01:39:37,520 --> 01:39:41,160
Speaker 1: the moment is for the left, they want to control

1751
01:39:41,240 --> 01:39:44,680
Speaker 1: the culture, folks, and they want to be able to

1752
01:39:44,840 --> 01:39:48,719
Speaker 1: use their control at the top to force feed us.

1753
01:39:49,479 --> 01:39:53,240
Speaker 1: Aren't that is not good that we don't care to see.

1754
01:39:53,520 --> 01:39:55,920
Speaker 1: But they have the levels of control and power to

1755
01:39:56,080 --> 01:39:59,160
Speaker 1: make us sit and see it. In many cases, they

1756
01:39:59,240 --> 01:40:02,880
Speaker 1: control the platforms, they control the distribution and the money

1757
01:40:02,920 --> 01:40:08,320
Speaker 1: behind these projects, and by elevating this themselves and claiming

1758
01:40:08,320 --> 01:40:12,280
Speaker 1: that it is fantastic, claiming there's some objective process here

1759
01:40:12,320 --> 01:40:17,200
Speaker 1: by which their social justice infused artwork is the best.

1760
01:40:18,560 --> 01:40:22,519
Speaker 1: That's how they justify the processes in place of making

1761
01:40:22,560 --> 01:40:25,720
Speaker 1: sure that they determine what we see, how we see it,

1762
01:40:25,760 --> 01:40:28,480
Speaker 1: when we see it. This is an issue of control

1763
01:40:28,680 --> 01:40:31,519
Speaker 1: of the culture for them, and award shows are a

1764
01:40:31,680 --> 01:40:37,920
Speaker 1: necessary laundering mechanism for liberalism to be pushed on all

1765
01:40:38,120 --> 01:40:41,040
Speaker 1: of the rest of us, even when we don't want it.

1766
01:40:53,520 --> 01:41:03,719
Speaker 1: The show ain't over yet, folks. It's time for roll call. Yes, indeed,

1767
01:41:03,800 --> 01:41:05,680
Speaker 1: it is that part of the show. We get to

1768
01:41:05,800 --> 01:41:08,200
Speaker 1: dive into all of the latest from you here in

1769
01:41:09,000 --> 01:41:15,160
Speaker 1: roll call. Uh, let's see what we have here. First up,

1770
01:41:15,400 --> 01:41:19,680
Speaker 1: Harry rides Hi buck Shield Hie. Catching up on podcasts.

1771
01:41:19,720 --> 01:41:25,559
Speaker 1: I listened to the August segment on Facebook and big

1772
01:41:25,600 --> 01:41:28,960
Speaker 1: banks sharing data. You discussed the scary Internet of things

1773
01:41:28,960 --> 01:41:31,120
Speaker 1: that I laughed out loud when you launched an in

1774
01:41:31,400 --> 01:41:35,120
Speaker 1: an intro for an ad for simply Safe. Oh my god. Well,

1775
01:41:35,160 --> 01:41:36,719
Speaker 1: I can hope they have a very secure link between

1776
01:41:36,760 --> 01:41:38,639
Speaker 1: your home and your phone. Here's you get another portal

1777
01:41:38,640 --> 01:41:41,240
Speaker 1: of attack into our lives. No smart anything for me.

1778
01:41:41,320 --> 01:41:44,240
Speaker 1: Even my phone is a very dumb flip phone. Count

1779
01:41:44,280 --> 01:41:49,000
Speaker 1: me another proud Loodite, Harry. Well, Harry, Look, there's always

1780
01:41:49,000 --> 01:41:52,080
Speaker 1: trade offs with technology when it comes to a possible

1781
01:41:52,240 --> 01:41:54,360
Speaker 1: security vulnerability, right, I mean, if you're gonna use a

1782
01:41:54,360 --> 01:41:56,559
Speaker 1: credit card, your credit card could get stolen. If you're

1783
01:41:56,560 --> 01:42:00,400
Speaker 1: going to use a car, it's a lot safer to walk, right,

1784
01:42:00,439 --> 01:42:02,479
Speaker 1: You're not going to run into a tree walking and die.

1785
01:42:03,400 --> 01:42:07,040
Speaker 1: So we can't be completely closed off from the risks

1786
01:42:07,560 --> 01:42:12,320
Speaker 1: that technology may pose. But I do think that in

1787
01:42:12,360 --> 01:42:14,479
Speaker 1: the case, first of all, our our sponsors simply say,

1788
01:42:14,479 --> 01:42:17,080
Speaker 1: if it's a billion dollar company and all they do

1789
01:42:17,400 --> 01:42:19,200
Speaker 1: is not just figure out how to make sure that

1790
01:42:19,240 --> 01:42:22,000
Speaker 1: all your stuff at home is safe, but also that

1791
01:42:22,160 --> 01:42:24,760
Speaker 1: no one except for you will be able to access

1792
01:42:25,160 --> 01:42:28,800
Speaker 1: anything that's there. But to be sure there there are

1793
01:42:28,840 --> 01:42:32,920
Speaker 1: always going to be the possibilities of security risks with

1794
01:42:33,000 --> 01:42:35,920
Speaker 1: any WiFi enabled device, and that's why you want to

1795
01:42:35,960 --> 01:42:38,360
Speaker 1: want and have a company you really trust and to

1796
01:42:38,720 --> 01:42:41,639
Speaker 1: just be aware at least of what some of those

1797
01:42:42,080 --> 01:42:46,040
Speaker 1: issues could be. But indeed, Harry, I'm glad you've got

1798
01:42:46,040 --> 01:42:49,320
Speaker 1: some amusement out of that. Ryan writes, yo buck love

1799
01:42:49,400 --> 01:42:52,400
Speaker 1: the show. I was listening to Thursday's show and you

1800
01:42:52,439 --> 01:42:56,400
Speaker 1: were talking about the media's new fixation on Trump's distaste

1801
01:42:56,400 --> 01:42:58,960
Speaker 1: for dogs. You mentioned that you weren't a fan of

1802
01:42:59,000 --> 01:43:02,519
Speaker 1: Obama's dogs and stated it was a golden doodle. First,

1803
01:43:02,800 --> 01:43:06,280
Speaker 1: the Obama's had Portuguese water dogs. Apparently they were considering

1804
01:43:06,320 --> 01:43:09,479
Speaker 1: a labor doodle. That's what I was thinking of until

1805
01:43:09,520 --> 01:43:13,439
Speaker 1: the Telegraph said that labradoodles are not for presidents. Second,

1806
01:43:13,600 --> 01:43:17,800
Speaker 1: you crossed a line when you dissed golden doodles. I

1807
01:43:17,880 --> 01:43:20,559
Speaker 1: understand how some people see these new mixed breeds as

1808
01:43:20,600 --> 01:43:23,680
Speaker 1: designer dogs, But if you love Golden Retrievers because of

1809
01:43:23,680 --> 01:43:26,920
Speaker 1: their incredibly warm personality, and you want to reduce shedding.

1810
01:43:27,040 --> 01:43:30,360
Speaker 1: You can't beat a golden doodle. They're great dogs. I'll

1811
01:43:30,360 --> 01:43:32,719
Speaker 1: give you a one time pass on this one. Shields

1812
01:43:32,800 --> 01:43:35,040
Speaker 1: high from Ryan or Ryan. You know, I'm gonna be

1813
01:43:35,080 --> 01:43:37,840
Speaker 1: honest with you when it comes to golden Doodles. I

1814
01:43:37,880 --> 01:43:40,800
Speaker 1: am somewhat judging a book by its cover because they

1815
01:43:40,840 --> 01:43:43,880
Speaker 1: just look a little frou frou to me. But I

1816
01:43:43,920 --> 01:43:47,720
Speaker 1: have never known one, so I'm kinda I'm kind of

1817
01:43:47,760 --> 01:43:51,439
Speaker 1: being an anti golden doodle person without really having all

1818
01:43:51,439 --> 01:43:53,320
Speaker 1: the full facts, so you know, let me think more.

1819
01:43:53,520 --> 01:43:56,559
Speaker 1: Whereas Sharp Pay's I don't like because they haven't been

1820
01:43:56,640 --> 01:43:58,439
Speaker 1: nice when I've met them. You know that there's some

1821
01:43:58,520 --> 01:44:02,120
Speaker 1: dogs that you spend time around, you get a sense

1822
01:44:02,160 --> 01:44:04,880
Speaker 1: real quickly of what's going on. I think I told

1823
01:44:04,920 --> 01:44:08,440
Speaker 1: you all, by the way, about that story about the

1824
01:44:08,520 --> 01:44:13,040
Speaker 1: uh the docks and who had the He was dragging

1825
01:44:13,080 --> 01:44:16,760
Speaker 1: his earmuffs for for anybody under the age you know

1826
01:44:16,840 --> 01:44:19,320
Speaker 1: of of being able to hear such things, but the

1827
01:44:19,400 --> 01:44:22,040
Speaker 1: docks and was dragging his peep on the ground and

1828
01:44:22,080 --> 01:44:23,760
Speaker 1: he was super old, and I lifted him up, and

1829
01:44:23,760 --> 01:44:26,120
Speaker 1: he tried to bite my face off. I saw that

1830
01:44:26,200 --> 01:44:30,000
Speaker 1: couple again who owned the docks and and or their

1831
01:44:30,000 --> 01:44:32,360
Speaker 1: parents did at least, And they didn't even know that story.

1832
01:44:32,400 --> 01:44:33,720
Speaker 1: And I told them, and they laughed a lot, and

1833
01:44:33,760 --> 01:44:37,559
Speaker 1: they said, yeah, he has really bad back problems. And

1834
01:44:37,640 --> 01:44:41,800
Speaker 1: he bites. Said yes, he indeed has back problems. And

1835
01:44:41,840 --> 01:44:44,120
Speaker 1: he bites and he drags his little peep on the

1836
01:44:44,160 --> 01:44:46,800
Speaker 1: ground because he's so low to the ground and so

1837
01:44:46,840 --> 01:44:50,160
Speaker 1: old and and uh he looks so cute though, because

1838
01:44:50,160 --> 01:44:52,320
Speaker 1: he doesn't look anyway I'm talking about the He's like

1839
01:44:52,320 --> 01:44:54,160
Speaker 1: a sixteen year old docks and or something. It's the

1840
01:44:54,200 --> 01:44:58,120
Speaker 1: oldest looking dog I've ever seen. Uh. Anyway, Molly felt

1841
01:44:58,120 --> 01:44:59,880
Speaker 1: so bad for him. She's like, look what he's dragging

1842
01:45:00,120 --> 01:45:02,800
Speaker 1: the crowd. I said, well, you know that would put

1843
01:45:02,840 --> 01:45:04,840
Speaker 1: me in a bad mood too, honey, So I can

1844
01:45:04,880 --> 01:45:09,040
Speaker 1: kind of understand. Uh. Next up here we have Erica,

Speaker 1: d C trip. Shoot me a mailing address. I'll send

1847
01:45:14,160 --> 01:45:16,320
Speaker 1: them to you. A figure having extra cards will be

1848
01:45:16,360 --> 01:45:18,840
Speaker 1: helpful when you have visitors. Erica, that's very sweet of you,

1849
01:45:19,080 --> 01:45:20,680
Speaker 1: but keep them for when you come to d C

1850
01:45:21,320 --> 01:45:24,800

Speaker 1: because of all of my gotta keep it lights on

1852
01:45:27,160 --> 01:45:29,439
Speaker 1: and the Freedom Hut Talk is trying to help me

1853
01:45:29,479 --> 01:45:31,880
Speaker 1: out a little bit, which, hey, you know, all the

1854
01:45:31,880 --> 01:45:34,040
Speaker 1: help I can get is is great. But do keep

1855
01:45:34,080 --> 01:45:40,599
Speaker 1: your cards for the next time that you are in town. Jenna, Yes, truth,

1856
01:45:40,840 --> 01:45:43,880
Speaker 1: You're right on good shows this week. I really appreciated

1857
01:45:43,920 --> 01:45:46,840
Speaker 1: Tuesday Night's insights into the history of fascism and communism

1858
01:45:46,840 --> 01:45:50,640
Speaker 1: and antifa. I recently read Liberal Fascism, as you've recommended,

1859
01:45:50,880 --> 01:45:54,479
Speaker 1: very relevant keep speaking truth. Well, I'm so glad you

1860
01:45:54,560 --> 01:45:58,200
Speaker 1: enjoyed it. And look, it's Jonah Goldberg's finest work in

1861
01:45:58,240 --> 01:46:01,400
Speaker 1: my opinion, It's a really ex o in book, Liberal Fascism.

1862
01:46:02,160 --> 01:46:04,320
Speaker 1: So I'm glad you enjoyed that. And I try to

1863
01:46:04,320 --> 01:46:07,959
Speaker 1: get into as much of the back story and history

1864
01:46:08,080 --> 01:46:11,840
Speaker 1: here on the show as I can, something that I

1865
01:46:11,880 --> 01:46:16,320
Speaker 1: think is very important. So appreciate, appreciate your your kind note.

1866
01:46:17,520 --> 01:46:21,719
Speaker 1: Here we go, um Peter writes in response to Andrew

1867
01:46:21,800 --> 01:46:26,000
Speaker 1: Cuomo's America was never that great comment. America will reach

1868
01:46:26,040 --> 01:46:29,520
Speaker 1: greatness when we get rid of people that use discrimination

1869
01:46:29,520 --> 01:46:32,160
Speaker 1: and stereotyping of conservatives who have no place in the

1870
01:46:32,200 --> 01:46:35,600
Speaker 1: state of New York. His own words, just readjusted to

1871
01:46:35,640 --> 01:46:38,040
Speaker 1: show the blatant bias against the people who make up

1872
01:46:38,120 --> 01:46:41,519
Speaker 1: most of the area of New York State. He's not welcome,

1873
01:46:41,600 --> 01:46:43,760
Speaker 1: nor does he stand for the people in upstate New

1874
01:46:43,840 --> 01:46:49,240
Speaker 1: York minus Syracuse and Albany. In he won only twelve counties,

1875
01:46:49,680 --> 01:46:53,120
Speaker 1: but an NYC contains the highest population of the state,

1876
01:46:53,880 --> 01:46:57,599
Speaker 1: giving him the wind shields high. Keep up the good fight.

1877
01:46:58,560 --> 01:47:03,519
Speaker 1: Nobody cares about winning those twelve counties because Cuomo only

1878
01:47:03,680 --> 01:47:08,240
Speaker 1: needs to win the battle in the media eyes. But no,

1879
01:47:08,400 --> 01:47:11,080
Speaker 1: you are correct, Peter oh Also, he writes, forgot to

1880
01:47:11,120 --> 01:47:14,120
Speaker 1: mention one reason Hillary would send only hard copies of

1881
01:47:14,120 --> 01:47:16,160
Speaker 1: the emails is that it's very easy to use the

1882
01:47:16,200 --> 01:47:19,760
Speaker 1: font color option in a document to change certain characters

1883
01:47:19,760 --> 01:47:22,120
Speaker 1: that one would want to be unseen, and select font

1884
01:47:22,160 --> 01:47:25,679
Speaker 1: color white, which does not appear on print but can

1885
01:47:25,720 --> 01:47:28,320
Speaker 1: be retrieved very easily. Think of how CEI director David

1886
01:47:28,360 --> 01:47:32,719
Speaker 1: Portrays and Broadwell used draft copy and a shared Gmail accounts,

1887
01:47:32,720 --> 01:47:36,400
Speaker 1: so there was no trace when deleted. Uh. I don't

1888
01:47:36,400 --> 01:47:38,559
Speaker 1: know anything about any of that, Peter, but that was

1889
01:47:38,680 --> 01:47:43,560
Speaker 1: certainly interesting. Thank you for thank you for writing um

1890
01:47:43,680 --> 01:47:46,599
Speaker 1: John writes, I have noticed I haven't seen a post

1891
01:47:46,600 --> 01:47:50,120
Speaker 1: from you in months hashtag silenced. Well, you know, John,

1892
01:47:50,720 --> 01:47:53,400
Speaker 1: I've i people listen to the show. No, I've been

1893
01:47:53,400 --> 01:47:57,720
Speaker 1: worried about social media censorship for years now. Uh. And

1894
01:47:57,760 --> 01:47:59,719
Speaker 1: there are there's clear there is a left wing bias.

1895
01:47:59,760 --> 01:48:04,040
Speaker 1: There meeting, there's a left wing bias. And you know

1896
01:48:04,600 --> 01:48:09,719
Speaker 1: that's that's just something we're gonna have to figure out now. Uh, Dennis,

1897
01:48:10,520 --> 01:48:12,920
Speaker 1: right book. I listened five days a week. I'm a fan.

1898
01:48:13,840 --> 01:48:16,800
Speaker 1: When you change your voice to mimic Adobe liberal, it

1899
01:48:16,880 --> 01:48:20,679
Speaker 1: sounds like fingernails on a chalkboard. I know this sounds petty,

1900
01:48:20,720 --> 01:48:22,680
Speaker 1: but maybe if other fans are also mentioned this, you

1901
01:48:22,760 --> 01:48:24,880
Speaker 1: might be mindful and not try to do that as much.

1902
01:48:24,880 --> 01:48:27,000
Speaker 1: Other than that, I'm all in. I'm glad you're out

1903
01:48:27,000 --> 01:48:32,400
Speaker 1: there in radio land. Dennis. Appreciate the uh, the constructive criticism,

1904
01:48:32,439 --> 01:48:34,599
Speaker 1: and you know, it's always a balancing act. I can

1905
01:48:34,600 --> 01:48:36,599
Speaker 1: tell you that a few times when I went on,

1906
01:48:37,080 --> 01:48:39,200
Speaker 1: when I filled in for Rush Limball in the earlier

1907
01:48:39,280 --> 01:48:41,759
Speaker 1: days of my career. You know, I'm at that huge

1908
01:48:41,840 --> 01:48:44,920
Speaker 1: Rush Limball Mike. It's just a pretty incredible experience to

1909
01:48:44,920 --> 01:48:48,320
Speaker 1: reach that many people at a radio or with a

1910
01:48:48,400 --> 01:48:52,560
Speaker 1: radio Mike and I would get afterwards, especially if I

1911
01:48:52,600 --> 01:48:57,240
Speaker 1: did like Kassa Vilhelm Wilhelm de Blasio. Yeah, kutent talk,

1912
01:48:58,000 --> 01:48:59,920
Speaker 1: and I would do this whole you know, because build

1913
01:48:59,920 --> 01:49:03,559
Speaker 1: a Blasio's real name is Kaiser Wilhelm. That or it

1914
01:49:03,640 --> 01:49:05,760
Speaker 1: wasn't Kaiser well and pardon me, it's Warren Wilhelm. It

1915
01:49:05,840 --> 01:49:08,960
Speaker 1: was not actually pardon me, it was not actually Kaiser Wilhelm.

1916
01:49:08,960 --> 01:49:12,439
Speaker 1: And I would get a hundred messages saying, oh my gosh,

1917
01:49:12,479 --> 01:49:15,720
Speaker 1: you're build the Blasio thing was hilarious. You need to

1918
01:49:15,760 --> 01:49:18,360
Speaker 1: do that like every show, all the time. And I

1919
01:49:18,400 --> 01:49:23,240
Speaker 1: would get you know, let's say thirty messages that were like,

1920
01:49:23,320 --> 01:49:26,320
Speaker 1: I love your entire show except for build the Blasio stuff.

1921
01:49:26,400 --> 01:49:29,320
Speaker 1: Don't do that again, or I won't listen. And I

1922
01:49:29,360 --> 01:49:31,040
Speaker 1: would sit there and say, okay, well, you know what

1923
01:49:31,080 --> 01:49:33,120
Speaker 1: do I do? Now? You know, it's it's always a

1924
01:49:33,120 --> 01:49:35,680
Speaker 1: little bit of a balancing act and radio you just

1925
01:49:35,800 --> 01:49:38,960
Speaker 1: end up going with what you think, you know feels

1926
01:49:39,080 --> 01:49:42,000
Speaker 1: right with you, and then you you're trying adjust based

1927
01:49:42,080 --> 01:49:44,240
Speaker 1: on the sense you can get from the audience. But

1928
01:49:44,880 --> 01:49:47,240
Speaker 1: there's no there's no perfect dance with that. That said, Dennis,

1929
01:49:47,640 --> 01:49:51,080
Speaker 1: I'll try to make sure that I strike a better balance.

1930
01:49:51,160 --> 01:49:56,559
Speaker 1: I appreciate the constructive criticism. Monty rights Buck, So glad

1931
01:49:56,560 --> 01:49:59,000
Speaker 1: you had Dan Bongino in the Freedom Hut, my two

1932
01:49:59,040 --> 01:50:02,200
Speaker 1: favorite podcast. I listen to your show on podcast form.

1933
01:50:02,280 --> 01:50:05,360
Speaker 1: Dan's enthusiasm and energy means I start my daily walk

1934
01:50:05,560 --> 01:50:09,920
Speaker 1: with my Chabrador a Lab Chow mix listening to Dan.

1935
01:50:10,040 --> 01:50:12,080
Speaker 1: Then it's Buck after I go on duty. Thanks for

1936
01:50:12,160 --> 01:50:16,759
Speaker 1: keeping us informed and entertained. Well, thank you for for listening.

1937
01:50:16,800 --> 01:50:18,920
Speaker 1: And yeah, Dan is a great guy. I've known Dan

1938
01:50:18,960 --> 01:50:21,800
Speaker 1: in this business. Gosh, it's crazy, and I started thinking

1939
01:50:21,800 --> 01:50:24,080
Speaker 1: about this now I've I've I think I've known Dan

1940
01:50:24,120 --> 01:50:29,439
Speaker 1: Bongino for at least six years now, so we we

1941
01:50:29,479 --> 01:50:32,559
Speaker 1: go back quite a ways. Um, he's either a great

1942
01:50:32,600 --> 01:50:34,800
Speaker 1: guy and I'm very happy for him for all of

1943
01:50:34,800 --> 01:50:37,400
Speaker 1: his success, richly deserved. I mean, he's a guy out

1944
01:50:37,439 --> 01:50:41,080
Speaker 1: there who's just making it happen by making a really

1945
01:50:41,080 --> 01:50:44,280
Speaker 1: good product and drawing in people that want to listen,

1946
01:50:44,960 --> 01:50:49,479
Speaker 1: you know, I you know, the Bongino model, Shapiro, some

1947
01:50:49,600 --> 01:50:51,240
Speaker 1: of the people who are out there now who are

1948
01:50:51,280 --> 01:50:55,760
Speaker 1: just building these really you know, these these massive audiences

1949
01:50:56,400 --> 01:51:00,160
Speaker 1: without having a huge traditional platform. I just think I

1950
01:51:00,160 --> 01:51:04,040
Speaker 1: think that's so good for the national political conversation. I

1951
01:51:04,040 --> 01:51:07,639
Speaker 1: think it's so good for conservatism something we're doing here too.

1952
01:51:07,680 --> 01:51:09,680
Speaker 1: Of course, although I do have a lot of terrestrial,

1953
01:51:10,680 --> 01:51:13,400
Speaker 1: wonderful terrestrial affiliates, over a hundred and twenty of them,

1954
01:51:13,439 --> 01:51:15,640
Speaker 1: So that is a that is a traditional platform. I

1955
01:51:15,640 --> 01:51:17,639
Speaker 1: can't pretend that I don't have a traditional platform. I've

1956
01:51:17,640 --> 01:51:21,040
Speaker 1: got a great one. But the the digital platforms that

1957
01:51:21,080 --> 01:51:25,000
Speaker 1: people are building, Dan Bongino high up on that list,

1958
01:51:25,080 --> 01:51:29,640
Speaker 1: are really really impressive. Uh, Brian writes buck heard you

1959
01:51:29,680 --> 01:51:34,360
Speaker 1: mentioned mistakes in speech like intensive purposes. Another good one

1960
01:51:34,439 --> 01:51:37,960
Speaker 1: is irregardless, no such word. My problem is the one

1961
01:51:38,000 --> 01:51:39,559
Speaker 1: person that I know who used the word as someone

1962
01:51:39,600 --> 01:51:42,599
Speaker 1: I can't correct my wife, Shields High, Well, Brian, your

1963
01:51:42,600 --> 01:51:44,400
Speaker 1: secret is safe with me, my friend. We won't tell

1964
01:51:44,400 --> 01:51:47,560
