WEBVTT - Border Security: Clear and Present 'Difference'

0:00:10.840 --> 0:00:16.079
<v Speaker 1>You are entering the freedom hunch. President Trump salutes the

0:00:16.079 --> 0:00:21.000
<v Speaker 1>heroes of immigrations and customs enforcement and customs and Border patrol.

0:00:21.120 --> 0:00:24.079
<v Speaker 1>That's right, Trump is pro law enforcement. What does that

0:00:24.120 --> 0:00:26.239
<v Speaker 1>make the other side? The Democrats will get into a

0:00:26.280 --> 0:00:29.560
<v Speaker 1>story that shows you their mindset. Plus they are still

0:00:29.680 --> 0:00:33.239
<v Speaker 1>doubling down on this notion of Brennan's clearance getting taken

0:00:33.280 --> 0:00:35.960
<v Speaker 1>away as a big problem. We'll dive into what's really

0:00:36.000 --> 0:00:38.559
<v Speaker 1>going on here, including a piece on the Hill dot

0:00:38.560 --> 0:00:41.200
<v Speaker 1>Com written by yours truly that makes sense of all

0:00:41.280 --> 0:00:43.680
<v Speaker 1>this stuff and much more coming up on The buck

0:00:43.720 --> 0:00:47.760
<v Speaker 1>Sexton Show. This is the buck Sexton Show, where the

0:00:47.800 --> 0:00:51.040
<v Speaker 1>mission or mission is to decode what really matters with

0:00:51.159 --> 0:00:58.000
<v Speaker 1>actionable intelligence. Make no mistake America, You're a great American Again.

0:00:58.160 --> 0:01:08.039
<v Speaker 1>The buck Sexton Show begins. Set analysts. Today, I sent

0:01:08.080 --> 0:01:11.080
<v Speaker 1>a letter to state and local leaders across our nation

0:01:11.200 --> 0:01:15.760
<v Speaker 1>asking them to pledge their full support and cooperation with

0:01:15.840 --> 0:01:21.759
<v Speaker 1>the officers and agents of ICE and CBC. Sadly in

0:01:21.760 --> 0:01:28.280
<v Speaker 1>recent months, incredibly, I have to say, incredibly, a coalition

0:01:28.520 --> 0:01:32.800
<v Speaker 1>of open borders extremists, and to me, that means crime.

0:01:32.880 --> 0:01:35.560
<v Speaker 1>People that don't mind crime, they mind it when it

0:01:35.600 --> 0:01:37.679
<v Speaker 1>happens to them. They don't mind it when they have

0:01:37.720 --> 0:01:42.000
<v Speaker 1>to watch it on television. Have waged an unprecedented assault

0:01:42.880 --> 0:01:47.520
<v Speaker 1>on American law enforcement, our greatest people, threatening ice and

0:01:47.560 --> 0:01:52.440
<v Speaker 1>Border Patrol for performing their duties admirably and for defending

0:01:52.440 --> 0:01:58.120
<v Speaker 1>our country from horrible people and horrible, horrible events and crimes.

0:01:59.800 --> 0:02:01.920
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to the buck Sex and show everybody. He had

0:02:01.920 --> 0:02:08.480
<v Speaker 1>President Trump today establishing a very clear difference between his

0:02:08.560 --> 0:02:15.320
<v Speaker 1>administration and how the Republican Party views immigrations and customs

0:02:15.400 --> 0:02:19.760
<v Speaker 1>enforcement and customs and border patrol essentially law enforcement as

0:02:19.800 --> 0:02:25.040
<v Speaker 1>it pertains to US borders and immigration. And this administration

0:02:25.160 --> 0:02:29.520
<v Speaker 1>and this president are supportive of those agents and officers.

0:02:29.520 --> 0:02:33.120
<v Speaker 1>This administration believes in their mission, which I would note

0:02:33.240 --> 0:02:36.760
<v Speaker 1>isn't just an opinion, it's also supported by the law.

0:02:37.720 --> 0:02:41.919
<v Speaker 1>These are agents of the state. Usually, Democrats love agents

0:02:41.960 --> 0:02:43.799
<v Speaker 1>of the state, especially when they're you know, they're they're

0:02:43.880 --> 0:02:47.640
<v Speaker 1>tax collectors, regulators, people like that. You know, people that

0:02:47.680 --> 0:02:50.240
<v Speaker 1>come and tell a small business what what they can

0:02:50.320 --> 0:02:52.760
<v Speaker 1>and can't do, what they're heating ducts in a certain area.

0:02:52.880 --> 0:02:57.040
<v Speaker 1>Democrats love those kinds of government agents. But the people

0:02:57.080 --> 0:02:59.240
<v Speaker 1>who work for our federal government, who are trying to

0:02:59.280 --> 0:03:04.919
<v Speaker 1>stop drug smugglers, human traffickers, cartel members, cartel hitmen from

0:03:04.960 --> 0:03:09.399
<v Speaker 1>coming in the United States. They have a disdain for them.

0:03:09.400 --> 0:03:13.720
<v Speaker 1>Democrats have been throwing them under the bus. And Trump

0:03:13.720 --> 0:03:16.320
<v Speaker 1>today held this rally that I think or held this

0:03:16.400 --> 0:03:20.840
<v Speaker 1>meeting rather that really established for all to see what

0:03:21.000 --> 0:03:24.000
<v Speaker 1>that difference is. And I'm glad that we have a

0:03:24.040 --> 0:03:26.680
<v Speaker 1>president is finally saying that Democrats are really four open borders.

0:03:26.720 --> 0:03:28.959
<v Speaker 1>They won't say it, they don't have the courage of

0:03:29.000 --> 0:03:33.480
<v Speaker 1>their convictions to be honest on this, but they do

0:03:33.520 --> 0:03:36.200
<v Speaker 1>want open borders. They just don't want that to be

0:03:36.280 --> 0:03:39.160
<v Speaker 1>the law. They want that to be the reality. This

0:03:39.240 --> 0:03:41.280
<v Speaker 1>is a question you should ask the next time you

0:03:41.800 --> 0:03:44.680
<v Speaker 1>are engaging in this debate. If you do, the next

0:03:44.680 --> 0:03:46.560
<v Speaker 1>time you have an opportunity to talk to somebody about

0:03:46.560 --> 0:03:49.960
<v Speaker 1>this who feels differently from you on it, asked them, say,

0:03:50.000 --> 0:03:55.520
<v Speaker 1>hold on a second, explain the following to me. Why

0:03:55.640 --> 0:03:59.040
<v Speaker 1>is it that everything that I hear from Democrats about immigration,

0:03:59.440 --> 0:04:03.760
<v Speaker 1>everything I hear from them about illegal immigration specifically, is

0:04:03.800 --> 0:04:06.720
<v Speaker 1>that it's good, that it's part of the American dream,

0:04:06.760 --> 0:04:09.840
<v Speaker 1>there's no downside. And then you should ask them, well,

0:04:09.840 --> 0:04:12.640
<v Speaker 1>then why shouldn't we just why shouldn't we be open borders.

0:04:13.000 --> 0:04:16.760
<v Speaker 1>If you refuse to concede that illegal immigrants oppose a

0:04:16.800 --> 0:04:18.920
<v Speaker 1>crime problem, if you refuse to believe it they are

0:04:18.960 --> 0:04:23.680
<v Speaker 1>a a drain on public resources, that there's really a

0:04:23.680 --> 0:04:28.440
<v Speaker 1>a large scale theft going on, uh from taxpayers to

0:04:28.520 --> 0:04:32.120
<v Speaker 1>illegal immigrants. If you refuse all of that, and then

0:04:32.200 --> 0:04:34.960
<v Speaker 1>you don't even think it affects the political culture of

0:04:35.000 --> 0:04:38.080
<v Speaker 1>this country. Because keep in mind, folks, we have millions

0:04:38.120 --> 0:04:40.400
<v Speaker 1>and millions of illegal immigrants that are coming in from

0:04:40.440 --> 0:04:44.480
<v Speaker 1>certain countries that are part of a contiguous land mass

0:04:44.520 --> 0:04:47.440
<v Speaker 1>with the United States. This is different. Even national security

0:04:47.440 --> 0:04:50.760
<v Speaker 1>analysts will tell you this is not just immigration from

0:04:50.760 --> 0:04:52.560
<v Speaker 1>all over the world and people come here. This is

0:04:53.000 --> 0:04:57.600
<v Speaker 1>immigration from right next door. And historically this tends not

0:04:57.680 --> 0:05:02.080
<v Speaker 1>to work out well. This usually aids to secessionists and

0:05:02.160 --> 0:05:06.280
<v Speaker 1>separatist movements. Oh, I know, no one even thinks about that. Now, Well,

0:05:06.320 --> 0:05:09.440
<v Speaker 1>give it time, give it a hundred years. What do

0:05:09.480 --> 0:05:12.760
<v Speaker 1>we think that will look like. I'm not worried about

0:05:12.800 --> 0:05:16.919
<v Speaker 1>people from from Italy or you know, from Rome or

0:05:16.920 --> 0:05:21.560
<v Speaker 1>from Shanghai wanting to know, rejoin their former country. But

0:05:21.760 --> 0:05:25.159
<v Speaker 1>I wonder at this rate. What does the future look

0:05:25.200 --> 0:05:28.480
<v Speaker 1>like of the U. S. Mexico border. We assume it

0:05:28.880 --> 0:05:33.520
<v Speaker 1>is static, but history tells us it's not. Not even

0:05:33.640 --> 0:05:37.120
<v Speaker 1>ancient history, Okay, not that long ago, go back a

0:05:37.160 --> 0:05:41.400
<v Speaker 1>few generations. So there's no honesty from Democrats about this

0:05:41.440 --> 0:05:44.440
<v Speaker 1>issue at all. They just pander and do a lot

0:05:44.480 --> 0:05:49.839
<v Speaker 1>of virtue signaling dressed up as a sound thinking on policy.

0:05:50.080 --> 0:05:52.720
<v Speaker 1>And Trump knows that immigration is a weak point for Democrats.

0:05:52.880 --> 0:05:56.479
<v Speaker 1>The American people are not with the left on immigration.

0:05:56.480 --> 0:06:02.359
<v Speaker 1>They're just not playli this new wave of anti borders,

0:06:02.480 --> 0:06:08.440
<v Speaker 1>anti law enforcement, extremism and shameful, dangerous. It's horrible in

0:06:08.480 --> 0:06:11.320
<v Speaker 1>every way, and it's going to stop. It's going to

0:06:11.440 --> 0:06:15.920
<v Speaker 1>stop right now. It's gonna stop today. We slowed it down,

0:06:16.040 --> 0:06:19.560
<v Speaker 1>now we're stopping it. We will never surrender our nation

0:06:19.680 --> 0:06:23.599
<v Speaker 1>to the forces of anarchy and chaos and crime. And

0:06:23.640 --> 0:06:25.760
<v Speaker 1>I think we're gonna do very well in the midterms.

0:06:25.800 --> 0:06:28.360
<v Speaker 1>And this is one of the very big reason. The

0:06:28.400 --> 0:06:32.160
<v Speaker 1>fact is people respect law and order and they love

0:06:32.279 --> 0:06:34.840
<v Speaker 1>our law enforcement. And I think we're going to have

0:06:35.240 --> 0:06:37.839
<v Speaker 1>much more of a red wave than what you're going

0:06:37.880 --> 0:06:42.200
<v Speaker 1>to see as a phony blue wave. Blue wave means

0:06:42.279 --> 0:06:46.520
<v Speaker 1>crime it means open borders not good. We will not

0:06:46.680 --> 0:06:50.400
<v Speaker 1>stand for the vile smears, the hateful attacks, and the

0:06:50.480 --> 0:06:54.400
<v Speaker 1>vicious assaults on the courageous men and women of ice

0:06:54.560 --> 0:07:00.200
<v Speaker 1>and border patrol and law enforcement. So the in and

0:07:00.360 --> 0:07:03.440
<v Speaker 1>is making a pretty clear case here about what's the

0:07:03.440 --> 0:07:07.320
<v Speaker 1>difference in Republicans and Democrats on the border. I think

0:07:07.320 --> 0:07:09.080
<v Speaker 1>it's very important that we all hear it, that we

0:07:09.120 --> 0:07:11.280
<v Speaker 1>all know it. But but there's also this story that

0:07:11.360 --> 0:07:13.400
<v Speaker 1>broke over the weekend, and I gotta tell you, I

0:07:13.480 --> 0:07:19.720
<v Speaker 1>try not to spend too much time um on social

0:07:19.720 --> 0:07:21.840
<v Speaker 1>media over the weekends. You know, we all need to

0:07:21.880 --> 0:07:24.560
<v Speaker 1>disengage and and step back, right, we all should, We

0:07:24.600 --> 0:07:29.480
<v Speaker 1>all should do that. But I saw this story about

0:07:29.480 --> 0:07:32.920
<v Speaker 1>about immigrations and customs enforcement on video no less, right,

0:07:32.920 --> 0:07:34.760
<v Speaker 1>So there's gonna be there's gonna be video of this

0:07:34.800 --> 0:07:38.200
<v Speaker 1>and everybody can see and how they swooped in and

0:07:38.320 --> 0:07:43.000
<v Speaker 1>arrested it's so terrible, arrested this man taking his wife

0:07:43.040 --> 0:07:48.040
<v Speaker 1>to the hospital to deliver a baby. And we were

0:07:48.080 --> 0:07:51.440
<v Speaker 1>supposed to react to this with shock and outrage. Of course,

0:07:52.160 --> 0:07:57.120
<v Speaker 1>the heartless immigrations and Customs enforcement agents are out there

0:07:57.160 --> 0:08:01.440
<v Speaker 1>doing this terrible work of enforcing the law, and they,

0:08:01.560 --> 0:08:04.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, they they stopped this man from being there

0:08:04.040 --> 0:08:05.800
<v Speaker 1>for the birth of his baby and all this other stuff.

0:08:06.920 --> 0:08:09.280
<v Speaker 1>And then by the way, this was picked up, I

0:08:09.320 --> 0:08:11.360
<v Speaker 1>was picked up by a lot of major news outlets

0:08:11.360 --> 0:08:13.320
<v Speaker 1>all over the place. You know, they're they're all running

0:08:13.320 --> 0:08:18.800
<v Speaker 1>with this story, ABC, CNN. And then we find out

0:08:18.800 --> 0:08:21.920
<v Speaker 1>some additional details of this. This was in San Bernardino, California,

0:08:21.920 --> 0:08:26.640
<v Speaker 1>over the weekend. We find out that sure enough, this

0:08:26.720 --> 0:08:29.560
<v Speaker 1>individual who was arrested that we were supposed to be

0:08:30.720 --> 0:08:32.960
<v Speaker 1>deeply concerned about, and we were supposed to really be

0:08:33.000 --> 0:08:38.520
<v Speaker 1>worried about, what a terrible injustice, what a tragedy has

0:08:38.520 --> 0:08:40.800
<v Speaker 1>befall in this country when you have somebody like this

0:08:40.960 --> 0:08:44.880
<v Speaker 1>arrested on their way to the hospital. No less, it's

0:08:44.920 --> 0:08:49.520
<v Speaker 1>just unthinkable, so terrible. But then we find out a

0:08:49.520 --> 0:08:53.079
<v Speaker 1>bit more. It turns out this man who they were

0:08:53.120 --> 0:09:00.520
<v Speaker 1>saying is just unjustly, unjustly grabbed right Joel our Rowna Laura,

0:09:00.600 --> 0:09:05.079
<v Speaker 1>thirty six years old. UM He was, according to Immigration

0:09:05.120 --> 0:09:11.720
<v Speaker 1>the Customs Enforcement wanted on a warrant for murder. And also,

0:09:12.040 --> 0:09:16.679
<v Speaker 1>by the way, his wife, who was pregnant, on the

0:09:16.720 --> 0:09:19.560
<v Speaker 1>way to the hospital to have her fifth child. Uh

0:09:20.080 --> 0:09:22.920
<v Speaker 1>was having a ces arean section, which means that it

0:09:23.000 --> 0:09:27.120
<v Speaker 1>was a scheduled procedure, so you know she was gonna

0:09:27.120 --> 0:09:28.920
<v Speaker 1>be able to get to the hospital, folks, right, I mean,

0:09:29.160 --> 0:09:31.120
<v Speaker 1>this is not It's not like the baby was The

0:09:31.160 --> 0:09:35.160
<v Speaker 1>baby was was, you know, happening at the gas station

0:09:35.200 --> 0:09:37.520
<v Speaker 1>where he was arrested. She was on her way to

0:09:37.559 --> 0:09:39.360
<v Speaker 1>hospital for an appointment. They found this guy. They think

0:09:39.360 --> 0:09:44.200
<v Speaker 1>he's wanted for murder, and so they arrest him. And

0:09:44.280 --> 0:09:46.760
<v Speaker 1>you see how this played out by the way I

0:09:46.800 --> 0:09:52.559
<v Speaker 1>saw one journalist One Blue Check journal tweeted out, I

0:09:52.679 --> 0:09:55.600
<v Speaker 1>used arrested a California man on Wednesday when he stopped

0:09:55.600 --> 0:09:58.080
<v Speaker 1>for gas while driving his wife to the hospital for

0:09:58.120 --> 0:10:00.560
<v Speaker 1>her C section. She ended up driving yourself to the

0:10:00.559 --> 0:10:03.040
<v Speaker 1>rest the rest of the way, giving birth alone twenty

0:10:03.080 --> 0:10:08.080
<v Speaker 1>three thousand retweets, and then he added this update. I

0:10:08.160 --> 0:10:10.640
<v Speaker 1>said Monday, this man was arrested because of a homicide

0:10:10.640 --> 0:10:13.680
<v Speaker 1>warrant for him in Mexico. I just didn't mention this

0:10:13.720 --> 0:10:16.600
<v Speaker 1>in its comments to meeting yesterday. His lawyer denized there

0:10:16.600 --> 0:10:21.440
<v Speaker 1>are such charges. No details from Ice two forty two retweets.

0:10:21.440 --> 0:10:24.280
<v Speaker 1>When I when I saw this earlier today, So over

0:10:24.320 --> 0:10:27.319
<v Speaker 1>twenty retweets of oh my gosh, look at this guy's

0:10:28.200 --> 0:10:30.719
<v Speaker 1>been grabbed. It so terrible. Ice is so heartless. Two,

0:10:31.160 --> 0:10:32.840
<v Speaker 1>it's like, well, actually they thought he was a murderer.

0:10:34.000 --> 0:10:37.360
<v Speaker 1>I think she thought this guy was dangerous. Right, murderers

0:10:37.360 --> 0:10:38.959
<v Speaker 1>are dangerous. You want to take them off the street.

0:10:40.600 --> 0:10:45.200
<v Speaker 1>And the media narrative very quickly fell apart here, right,

0:10:45.280 --> 0:10:47.120
<v Speaker 1>all of a sudden, that was not really a story

0:10:47.160 --> 0:10:49.840
<v Speaker 1>they were very focused on. But I want to take this.

0:10:49.920 --> 0:10:52.960
<v Speaker 1>Oh there's also this point they make of how I

0:10:53.200 --> 0:10:55.560
<v Speaker 1>said in their initial statement that no one has shield

0:10:55.600 --> 0:10:57.640
<v Speaker 1>You know, if you're here illegally, you can be deported.

0:10:57.679 --> 0:11:00.160
<v Speaker 1>No one shielded from deportation, whether you're on the way

0:11:00.160 --> 0:11:01.880
<v Speaker 1>to the hospital or whatever. I mean, if if they

0:11:01.960 --> 0:11:05.160
<v Speaker 1>detain you, they detain you. Right by the way, police

0:11:06.400 --> 0:11:09.640
<v Speaker 1>busted into Metaphorts home at six o'clock or five o'clock

0:11:09.640 --> 0:11:13.160
<v Speaker 1>in the morning, right, and police come at very inopportune times.

0:11:13.240 --> 0:11:15.440
<v Speaker 1>Years ago, there was a an n S a whistle blowerer,

0:11:15.520 --> 0:11:17.840
<v Speaker 1>remember the case. They came in and pulled him out

0:11:17.840 --> 0:11:20.280
<v Speaker 1>of the shower with MP five's drawn. They sent in

0:11:20.360 --> 0:11:23.000
<v Speaker 1>a swat team to grab that guy. By the way,

0:11:23.040 --> 0:11:26.520
<v Speaker 1>you know when he ended up getting a for jail time, nothing,

0:11:26.960 --> 0:11:30.480
<v Speaker 1>got probation for a misdemeanor, didn't even he didn't do anything,

0:11:30.960 --> 0:11:35.000
<v Speaker 1>released unclassified information that the government didn't like. But that's

0:11:35.000 --> 0:11:38.280
<v Speaker 1>a conversation for another time. Yeah, that's right. Law enforcementill

0:11:38.280 --> 0:11:43.079
<v Speaker 1>take you at at inconvenient times. They'll do that for citizens.

0:11:43.200 --> 0:11:45.280
<v Speaker 1>By the way, they do that for all of us. Right,

0:11:45.280 --> 0:11:47.800
<v Speaker 1>if they have to arrest, if it's if they have

0:11:47.840 --> 0:11:51.800
<v Speaker 1>to execute it, arrest, you're getting arrested. There's not this like, oh, well,

0:11:51.880 --> 0:11:53.520
<v Speaker 1>you know I'm on the way to get coffee or

0:11:53.840 --> 0:11:55.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, I got a doctor's appointment. Can you arrest

0:11:55.679 --> 0:11:59.440
<v Speaker 1>me later. That's not how it works. And what they're

0:11:59.480 --> 0:12:03.440
<v Speaker 1>saying here what Immigrations a Custom Enforcement initially said was well, yeah,

0:12:03.480 --> 0:12:05.880
<v Speaker 1>we're deporting this guy. He's got a deportation order out

0:12:05.880 --> 0:12:08.000
<v Speaker 1>on him. And and the media said, oh my gosh,

0:12:08.040 --> 0:12:10.800
<v Speaker 1>it's so heartless and terrible. And then we found out

0:12:10.840 --> 0:12:13.240
<v Speaker 1>that there's a murder warrant. And now people are saying, well, no,

0:12:13.320 --> 0:12:15.000
<v Speaker 1>there's not a murder world. Well guess what if if

0:12:15.040 --> 0:12:17.280
<v Speaker 1>that was information Ice had, they have to act on it. Right,

0:12:17.280 --> 0:12:20.160
<v Speaker 1>if Mexico has some mess up in their system. It's

0:12:20.160 --> 0:12:23.240
<v Speaker 1>not our federal officers faults. They're they're doing their job.

0:12:23.280 --> 0:12:24.760
<v Speaker 1>They think they're taking a murderer off the street. They

0:12:24.760 --> 0:12:27.280
<v Speaker 1>should be praised for this. Then there's one other point,

0:12:27.480 --> 0:12:29.280
<v Speaker 1>and this is the biggest one, and this goes right

0:12:29.320 --> 0:12:32.640
<v Speaker 1>to the heart of why people really want to hear

0:12:32.760 --> 0:12:35.880
<v Speaker 1>from from Trump on this and why his message on

0:12:35.920 --> 0:12:41.559
<v Speaker 1>this issue is so very, very important. Why was this

0:12:41.640 --> 0:12:45.920
<v Speaker 1>even a national news story that this man was detained

0:12:45.920 --> 0:12:49.720
<v Speaker 1>by Immigrations and Customers Enforcement If he were not an

0:12:49.760 --> 0:12:53.480
<v Speaker 1>illegal alien, which he was right, if you were not

0:12:53.600 --> 0:12:55.880
<v Speaker 1>an illegal alien, if he were just a guy wanted

0:12:56.000 --> 0:13:00.480
<v Speaker 1>on an outstanding drug warrant, wanted on an assault charge,

0:13:01.120 --> 0:13:04.080
<v Speaker 1>and he were on his way to the hospital with

0:13:04.160 --> 0:13:07.400
<v Speaker 1>his wife, would this have been a news story period?

0:13:07.920 --> 0:13:10.480
<v Speaker 1>I don't mean a national level, front page weekend news story,

0:13:10.520 --> 0:13:13.440
<v Speaker 1>which is what this was treated as. I mean, would

0:13:13.440 --> 0:13:17.400
<v Speaker 1>anybody in the media care at all? Well, you know

0:13:17.440 --> 0:13:21.439
<v Speaker 1>the answer is no. This then brings me to what

0:13:21.480 --> 0:13:23.200
<v Speaker 1>they really don't want you to think about. But you

0:13:23.200 --> 0:13:25.400
<v Speaker 1>already know this is the case. They just try to

0:13:26.080 --> 0:13:31.040
<v Speaker 1>skip past this. It's not only that illegal aliens in

0:13:31.040 --> 0:13:36.560
<v Speaker 1>this country get special treatment from the media. It's also

0:13:36.720 --> 0:13:40.280
<v Speaker 1>that the media expects that illegal aliens will given be

0:13:40.320 --> 0:13:44.520
<v Speaker 1>given special legal treatment too, that they shouldn't be held

0:13:44.600 --> 0:13:48.000
<v Speaker 1>responsible the same way that others are for illegal acts,

0:13:48.440 --> 0:13:50.439
<v Speaker 1>because they have been put in a very difficult situation,

0:13:51.120 --> 0:13:53.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, because law enforcement is hounding them. So the

0:13:54.440 --> 0:13:57.199
<v Speaker 1>forgeries they commit, the social Security card for all that

0:13:57.200 --> 0:13:59.320
<v Speaker 1>they commit, all these different things, you know, that's that's

0:13:59.320 --> 0:14:01.720
<v Speaker 1>not their fault. That's our fault, you see, because we've

0:14:01.760 --> 0:14:05.880
<v Speaker 1>put them in that situation. The media in this country

0:14:05.920 --> 0:14:10.120
<v Speaker 1>and the Democratic Party with them, don't just believe the

0:14:10.200 --> 0:14:12.520
<v Speaker 1>legal aliens should be allowed to stay. They think illegal

0:14:12.559 --> 0:14:16.440
<v Speaker 1>aliens in this country should have extra rights over citizens,

0:14:17.880 --> 0:14:20.560
<v Speaker 1>and that they deserve more attention and more sympathy. Illegal

0:14:20.600 --> 0:14:24.880
<v Speaker 1>aliens are more deserving of sympathy than the media's fellow Americans.

0:14:27.120 --> 0:14:30.200
<v Speaker 1>That's what they really believe. Otherwise, how do you explain

0:14:30.240 --> 0:14:33.120
<v Speaker 1>this story? How do you explain that this was treated

0:14:33.160 --> 0:14:35.080
<v Speaker 1>as an urgent matter for all of us to spend

0:14:35.120 --> 0:14:38.760
<v Speaker 1>so much time on. It doesn't make any sense unless

0:14:38.760 --> 0:14:40.080
<v Speaker 1>you put it into that context. Then all of a

0:14:40.120 --> 0:14:44.360
<v Speaker 1>sudden it does eight four four nine to eight to

0:14:44.640 --> 0:14:47.320
<v Speaker 1>five eight four four nine, Buck, We've got a lot

0:14:47.440 --> 0:14:52.680
<v Speaker 1>on the security clearance uh pol fiasco. Today We're gonna

0:14:52.680 --> 0:14:56.880
<v Speaker 1>be also free speech bill maher Jack Dorsey saying that

0:14:56.880 --> 0:15:00.880
<v Speaker 1>Twitter does discriminate in favor of leftist idea pology. I mean,

0:15:01.080 --> 0:15:04.360
<v Speaker 1>I got a jam packed show for all of you

0:15:04.440 --> 0:15:07.440
<v Speaker 1>show uh oh. And also the social justice mob dragged

0:15:07.440 --> 0:15:09.960
<v Speaker 1>a friend of mine or a former classmate of mine.

0:15:10.000 --> 0:15:12.360
<v Speaker 1>I should say, We'll get to that in more coming up.

0:15:23.120 --> 0:15:24.920
<v Speaker 1>I want to bring up from five thirty our friends

0:15:24.960 --> 0:15:27.400
<v Speaker 1>at five thirty to put out their first forecast for

0:15:27.680 --> 0:15:30.440
<v Speaker 1>the mid term elections. And they say that Democrats have

0:15:30.560 --> 0:15:33.040
<v Speaker 1>a three and four chance to win control of the House,

0:15:33.080 --> 0:15:36.480
<v Speaker 1>Republicans have a one in four chance to keep control

0:15:36.520 --> 0:15:39.840
<v Speaker 1>in the House, and Jason, it's a very qualified forecast

0:15:39.920 --> 0:15:41.840
<v Speaker 1>right there. They're just saying this is these are probabilities,

0:15:41.880 --> 0:15:45.640
<v Speaker 1>not predictions, uh in in any way. But this corresponds

0:15:45.640 --> 0:15:48.200
<v Speaker 1>to what we're seeing from other experts. There's no red

0:15:48.200 --> 0:15:52.160
<v Speaker 1>wave that the president. No, I think that's we're still

0:15:52.200 --> 0:15:55.040
<v Speaker 1>thinking on some part. Every factor seems to point that

0:15:55.080 --> 0:15:57.200
<v Speaker 1>Democrats are going to take the House. The president's low

0:15:57.240 --> 0:16:00.000
<v Speaker 1>approval ratings, which are at the point where every president

0:16:00.080 --> 0:16:02.280
<v Speaker 1>has lost the House when name would lost the House

0:16:02.360 --> 0:16:05.880
<v Speaker 1>or lost one of their chapters. That was doubd who

0:16:06.080 --> 0:16:08.360
<v Speaker 1>if I played you, he's an ABC analyst. If I

0:16:08.360 --> 0:16:11.520
<v Speaker 1>played you as predictions from the Trump election, you would

0:16:11.600 --> 0:16:14.000
<v Speaker 1>laugh really hard because everything he said at every point

0:16:14.000 --> 0:16:17.440
<v Speaker 1>of that was pretty much wrong. But the whole panel,

0:16:17.440 --> 0:16:20.440
<v Speaker 1>they've noticed that. They're all very dismissive. I just a

0:16:20.480 --> 0:16:23.080
<v Speaker 1>little trip down memory lane based on where the polling

0:16:23.280 --> 0:16:27.600
<v Speaker 1>was two years ago. Folks played John only into this night,

0:16:27.800 --> 0:16:30.080
<v Speaker 1>where do we stand? This is where we stood coming

0:16:30.080 --> 0:16:33.040
<v Speaker 1>into the night to to two oh four. So clearly

0:16:33.080 --> 0:16:35.720
<v Speaker 1>an advantage for Secretary Clinton. So right now we have

0:16:35.800 --> 0:16:38.400
<v Speaker 1>Hillary is about a seventy five or favorite. We have

0:16:38.400 --> 0:16:41.000
<v Speaker 1>different first past. You can look at Hillary Clinton up

0:16:41.000 --> 0:16:44.240
<v Speaker 1>by double nidgets nationally twelve points fifty thirty eight, full

0:16:44.280 --> 0:16:47.800
<v Speaker 1>way race, Clinton leading in Florida, Clinton leading in North Carolina,

0:16:47.920 --> 0:16:50.880
<v Speaker 1>Clinton leading in Ohio, Clinton leading in Nevada. I could

0:16:50.880 --> 0:16:52.920
<v Speaker 1>go on and on and on, but said, basically, this

0:16:53.000 --> 0:16:54.680
<v Speaker 1>is the beginning of the end for Trump. At the

0:16:54.680 --> 0:16:56.640
<v Speaker 1>beginning of the end, the beginning of the ends, is

0:16:56.680 --> 0:16:59.160
<v Speaker 1>probably starting of the beginning of the end for for

0:16:59.240 --> 0:17:03.120
<v Speaker 1>Donald Trump. Mr Trump, to answer your call for political honesty,

0:17:03.200 --> 0:17:06.440
<v Speaker 1>I just want to say, you're not going to be president.

0:17:06.560 --> 0:17:09.560
<v Speaker 1>All right. They're not popping the champagne corks as yet,

0:17:09.640 --> 0:17:13.840
<v Speaker 1>but they probably are thinking about how good it might taste. Anderson,

0:17:13.920 --> 0:17:16.600
<v Speaker 1>this night is turning out to be a real nailed by.

0:17:16.720 --> 0:17:19.680
<v Speaker 1>Donald Trump will carry the state of Florida. Were a

0:17:19.760 --> 0:17:24.280
<v Speaker 1>major projection. Right now it's Donald Trump will say, pretty

0:17:24.359 --> 0:17:29.040
<v Speaker 1>dramatic change in your forecast. Now, well, it's not about

0:17:29.040 --> 0:17:32.480
<v Speaker 1>our forecast. Well, my crystal ball has been shattered into

0:17:32.480 --> 0:17:36.000
<v Speaker 1>atoms here because I predicted the exact opposite of what happened. Well,

0:17:36.040 --> 0:17:38.720
<v Speaker 1>if the scene here is so different than it was

0:17:38.920 --> 0:17:42.240
<v Speaker 1>a few hours ago, when people were happy and relaxed,

0:17:42.320 --> 0:17:44.920
<v Speaker 1>I have been looking around the room and people who

0:17:44.920 --> 0:17:49.280
<v Speaker 1>are stone faced, some of them have been crying. Everybody

0:17:49.520 --> 0:17:53.400
<v Speaker 1>is crying and so and it is the end. Everybody

0:17:53.520 --> 0:17:58.200
<v Speaker 1>is crying. It is a morning moment for for those people. Uh,

0:17:58.240 --> 0:18:01.840
<v Speaker 1>and it is it is woman filled with fear. How

0:18:01.840 --> 0:18:05.040
<v Speaker 1>do we explain how this is possible? How did this happen?

0:18:05.320 --> 0:18:10.640
<v Speaker 1>Donald Trump will be the President of the United States

0:18:10.880 --> 0:18:15.479
<v Speaker 1>thirty Keep you waiting, complicated business folks. I gotta tell you,

0:18:15.520 --> 0:18:17.560
<v Speaker 1>man that anytime I'm having a bad day, I just

0:18:17.560 --> 0:18:20.720
<v Speaker 1>need to listen to that, that whole that whole cycle again. There.

0:18:20.720 --> 0:18:27.920
<v Speaker 1>It's amazing, isn't it? Election night? Wow? Incredible, incredible stuff.

0:18:28.240 --> 0:18:30.119
<v Speaker 1>It was incredible. Just just remember that. Well, all the

0:18:30.200 --> 0:18:33.119
<v Speaker 1>all the smug politicos. I'm not saying they're gonna be wrong.

0:18:33.600 --> 0:18:36.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm just saying their smugness has not in any way

0:18:36.560 --> 0:18:40.080
<v Speaker 1>gone down since they were incredibly wrong about the last

0:18:40.200 --> 0:18:44.040
<v Speaker 1>national election in the Trump era. So we'll see, folks,

0:18:44.640 --> 0:19:00.439
<v Speaker 1>it ain't over until the lady sings. He's holding the

0:19:00.520 --> 0:19:05.520
<v Speaker 1>line for America, Buck Sexton, his back. For these people

0:19:05.520 --> 0:19:07.520
<v Speaker 1>that want to question why we do what we do.

0:19:07.800 --> 0:19:09.800
<v Speaker 1>The first people need to look in the mirrors Congress.

0:19:09.800 --> 0:19:12.240
<v Speaker 1>Congress had had ability to fix us, and they didn't

0:19:12.240 --> 0:19:15.080
<v Speaker 1>fix it. So the fault lines at their feet first.

0:19:15.320 --> 0:19:18.199
<v Speaker 1>This is why he's a great president. He talks to

0:19:18.240 --> 0:19:20.000
<v Speaker 1>talk and he walks a walk. I've been with the

0:19:20.040 --> 0:19:22.199
<v Speaker 1>President of numerous town hall meetings where he meets with

0:19:22.240 --> 0:19:25.240
<v Speaker 1>the frontline law enforcement folks that the folks that wear

0:19:25.280 --> 0:19:28.040
<v Speaker 1>that keval arvest every day and enforce laws. You know,

0:19:28.040 --> 0:19:30.840
<v Speaker 1>he's staying shoulder to shoulder with him and what he's

0:19:30.880 --> 0:19:33.159
<v Speaker 1>doing is right for America. What he's doing is right

0:19:33.200 --> 0:19:36.119
<v Speaker 1>for border security. And as far as the political puns

0:19:36.160 --> 0:19:39.120
<v Speaker 1>want to continue to vilify ICE officers, I find it.

0:19:39.720 --> 0:19:41.560
<v Speaker 1>I find a un American that you would want to

0:19:41.560 --> 0:19:44.920
<v Speaker 1>attack a law enforcement officer for merely doing their job

0:19:45.160 --> 0:19:48.359
<v Speaker 1>enforcing the laws that Congress enacted. I mean, what does

0:19:48.440 --> 0:19:50.640
<v Speaker 1>this come to. I mean, I'm glad this is happening.

0:19:50.760 --> 0:19:52.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm glad that Left is finally shown that they want

0:19:52.840 --> 0:19:54.760
<v Speaker 1>open borders. I think it's gonna help. I think it's

0:19:54.760 --> 0:19:57.240
<v Speaker 1>gonna help in November. I really do. I totally agree

0:19:57.280 --> 0:20:02.560
<v Speaker 1>with Thomas Holman, their former UH ICE director. He's he's

0:20:02.560 --> 0:20:05.240
<v Speaker 1>completely right. You know, the Democrats are exposing themselves for

0:20:05.320 --> 0:20:07.840
<v Speaker 1>who they really are, and that's good. We should know.

0:20:08.200 --> 0:20:10.040
<v Speaker 1>I want the American people to know. I want them

0:20:10.080 --> 0:20:12.720
<v Speaker 1>to know that this is what Democrats are really all about.

0:20:13.440 --> 0:20:16.160
<v Speaker 1>I want them to know that this is how Democrats

0:20:16.359 --> 0:20:19.359
<v Speaker 1>view our customs and border patrol, of you, our immigration

0:20:20.320 --> 0:20:23.360
<v Speaker 1>enforcement agents. And I think it might have a real

0:20:23.400 --> 0:20:25.119
<v Speaker 1>impact in the mid terms. You know, because because the

0:20:25.160 --> 0:20:30.720
<v Speaker 1>Democrats have have deluded themselves into thinking that the country

0:20:30.760 --> 0:20:33.119
<v Speaker 1>is with them on on immigration, they run all these polls.

0:20:33.200 --> 0:20:35.560
<v Speaker 1>You know, do you think immigration is good for America,

0:20:35.680 --> 0:20:37.560
<v Speaker 1>do you you know? No, no, no, no no, no, that's

0:20:37.600 --> 0:20:40.240
<v Speaker 1>really an issue here, folks. What is it issue is

0:20:40.600 --> 0:20:43.720
<v Speaker 1>should the laws of this country be enforced? Why is

0:20:43.760 --> 0:20:45.840
<v Speaker 1>it that the laws against you? And this goes back

0:20:45.880 --> 0:20:48.399
<v Speaker 1>to how they illegal aliens have special rights in the

0:20:48.480 --> 0:20:50.840
<v Speaker 1>eyes of the media. Why should the laws against you

0:20:50.880 --> 0:20:55.639
<v Speaker 1>be enforced without exception? Right? Why should Papadopolis be facing

0:20:55.680 --> 0:20:57.640
<v Speaker 1>six months in prison for a lie about a non

0:20:57.720 --> 0:21:01.920
<v Speaker 1>crime but immigrated? Shouldn't offenses are not punished at all?

0:21:02.800 --> 0:21:06.080
<v Speaker 1>Explain that to me. I can think of a whole

0:21:06.440 --> 0:21:09.359
<v Speaker 1>a whole bunch of different offenses that have been in

0:21:09.400 --> 0:21:13.360
<v Speaker 1>the media recently. You know, why should why should Manafort

0:21:13.440 --> 0:21:16.119
<v Speaker 1>be facing decades in prison for not paying money on

0:21:16.160 --> 0:21:18.720
<v Speaker 1>his taxes? Okay? Telling me has to pay the money

0:21:18.880 --> 0:21:22.080
<v Speaker 1>and a fine, decades in prison? Oh buck? The law

0:21:22.160 --> 0:21:25.119
<v Speaker 1>is the law? Well, okay, the law is law. Who

0:21:25.160 --> 0:21:27.800
<v Speaker 1>who exactly suffers because Manaford hid this money? By the way,

0:21:27.800 --> 0:21:31.479
<v Speaker 1>Michael Cohen is expected to be facing charges any moment now.

0:21:31.520 --> 0:21:33.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm seeing the wire hit just as we're on the show.

0:21:34.680 --> 0:21:40.520
<v Speaker 1>Not for Russia collusion, collusion, who's collusion? But for a

0:21:40.680 --> 0:21:48.200
<v Speaker 1>tax scheme involving taxis a taxi tax scheme. Okay, Now

0:21:48.359 --> 0:21:50.240
<v Speaker 1>you may say, Bucky, and everyone's gonna pay their taxes.

0:21:50.240 --> 0:21:53.520
<v Speaker 1>I agree, But should should the sanctions really be that severe?

0:21:53.520 --> 0:21:55.359
<v Speaker 1>Should people lose their freedom and go to prison for

0:21:55.560 --> 0:21:59.320
<v Speaker 1>a tax issue? Because and people say me, well, Buck,

0:21:59.359 --> 0:22:02.360
<v Speaker 1>that's the law. All I said, Well, who's really suffered

0:22:02.359 --> 0:22:04.000
<v Speaker 1>because of what they've done? Where is the victim? Or

0:22:04.040 --> 0:22:07.040
<v Speaker 1>the victim is the government? And therefore they said, the

0:22:07.080 --> 0:22:11.200
<v Speaker 1>victim is all of us? But is it really so severe? Well,

0:22:11.240 --> 0:22:15.800
<v Speaker 1>what about being in this country illegally accessing federal services,

0:22:15.880 --> 0:22:20.399
<v Speaker 1>illegally engaging in forgery, engaging in document fraud, engaging in

0:22:20.960 --> 0:22:23.239
<v Speaker 1>and you know, not filing a tax return and being

0:22:23.280 --> 0:22:25.440
<v Speaker 1>in this country? Oh, that's right. They don't file tax

0:22:25.440 --> 0:22:28.760
<v Speaker 1>returns generally speaking, do they? And if they did, keep

0:22:28.760 --> 0:22:30.280
<v Speaker 1>in mind, a lot of them would be getting payments

0:22:30.359 --> 0:22:32.400
<v Speaker 1>from the government because a lot of illegal aliens don't

0:22:32.400 --> 0:22:37.040
<v Speaker 1>make enough money to pay federal income taxes. But those

0:22:37.119 --> 0:22:39.920
<v Speaker 1>laws don't get enforced. The law is the law until

0:22:39.920 --> 0:22:41.960
<v Speaker 1>it's not. With Democrats, that's one thing that we've seen,

0:22:42.000 --> 0:22:44.399
<v Speaker 1>and certainly on immigration, and it's because they view it

0:22:44.440 --> 0:22:47.280
<v Speaker 1>as a path to permanent power. That's what's It's not

0:22:47.320 --> 0:22:51.600
<v Speaker 1>about one election for Democrats. Amnesty and continued inflows of

0:22:51.680 --> 0:22:55.359
<v Speaker 1>illegal aliens from developing in third world countries is all

0:22:55.400 --> 0:22:58.000
<v Speaker 1>about power for the Democrat Party. It's just what it is,

0:22:59.400 --> 0:23:02.240
<v Speaker 1>so we might as well call it out. I'm glad

0:23:02.280 --> 0:23:05.520
<v Speaker 1>that former ICE director Homeman is willing to say it.

0:23:06.400 --> 0:23:08.159
<v Speaker 1>And he also you notice how how he attacked the

0:23:08.200 --> 0:23:10.560
<v Speaker 1>political pundit class to which is something we all should

0:23:10.560 --> 0:23:13.679
<v Speaker 1>be very comfortable doing at this point, because they do.

0:23:13.720 --> 0:23:15.399
<v Speaker 1>They run their mouths about this stuff. They act like

0:23:15.440 --> 0:23:17.400
<v Speaker 1>they've got answers and they know they know what really

0:23:17.400 --> 0:23:20.720
<v Speaker 1>should be done. And you know, meanwhile, they're not honest

0:23:20.720 --> 0:23:23.919
<v Speaker 1>about immigration. They don't know anything abou immigration, and they

0:23:23.960 --> 0:23:26.520
<v Speaker 1>won't debate the issue publicly. They've got people running around

0:23:26.560 --> 0:23:31.159
<v Speaker 1>yelling abolish Ice, Abolish ICE like a bunch of mincompoops,

0:23:32.320 --> 0:23:36.800
<v Speaker 1>including sitting senators Kirsten gila Brand is saying that I

0:23:36.880 --> 0:23:39.959
<v Speaker 1>should be abolished too. This is a sitting senator who

0:23:40.040 --> 0:23:43.399
<v Speaker 1>wants to eliminate a law enforcement agency that is absolutely

0:23:43.400 --> 0:23:46.800
<v Speaker 1>necessary for this country. Well, what are we gonna do.

0:23:46.840 --> 0:23:48.960
<v Speaker 1>We're just gonna oh, that's right, We're gonna go open borders,

0:23:49.000 --> 0:23:51.080
<v Speaker 1>and that isn't a that that's an applause line for

0:23:51.119 --> 0:23:52.639
<v Speaker 1>Democrats tells you a lot. But a lot of the

0:23:52.640 --> 0:23:56.119
<v Speaker 1>Democrats applause lines these days give you not just a

0:23:56.119 --> 0:23:58.920
<v Speaker 1>window into their mindset, but really a window into their soul.

0:24:00.040 --> 0:24:05.080
<v Speaker 1>The political pundit class Homan clearly has some animus towards them.

0:24:05.119 --> 0:24:07.760
<v Speaker 1>Here is a I want to play this full exchange

0:24:07.760 --> 0:24:10.399
<v Speaker 1>for you. This is from MSNBC, which you'll notice. I

0:24:10.960 --> 0:24:14.840
<v Speaker 1>tend to lay off MSNBC because everyone knows their left,

0:24:14.880 --> 0:24:18.159
<v Speaker 1>their Democrats right. It's a Democrat channel four by and

0:24:18.359 --> 0:24:22.560
<v Speaker 1>of progressives. That's what it is. I think they're wrong

0:24:22.600 --> 0:24:25.159
<v Speaker 1>about everything, but at least they're honest about who they

0:24:25.200 --> 0:24:28.040
<v Speaker 1>are at some level. At some level, I mean, NBC's

0:24:28.080 --> 0:24:31.560
<v Speaker 1>politics really are any different from msnbc s. But maybe

0:24:31.560 --> 0:24:34.720
<v Speaker 1>that's a conversation for another time. CNN I have a

0:24:34.720 --> 0:24:36.639
<v Speaker 1>problem with because the whole the whole thing is a fraud.

0:24:36.680 --> 0:24:40.320
<v Speaker 1>It's dishonest. It's an anti Trump channel. It's an anti

0:24:40.359 --> 0:24:43.120
<v Speaker 1>Republican channel now as well, because Trump and the Republican

0:24:43.160 --> 0:24:47.919
<v Speaker 1>Party have become one. Uh. But here's a here's a

0:24:47.960 --> 0:24:56.600
<v Speaker 1>pretty good example of what passes for analysis. At MSNBC. Again,

0:24:56.680 --> 0:24:59.640
<v Speaker 1>this is the most vocal president, at least in real time,

0:24:59.640 --> 0:25:01.879
<v Speaker 1>that we've had in recent memory. Right, he is the

0:25:01.960 --> 0:25:05.320
<v Speaker 1>leader of the free world. No he's not. He's not

0:25:05.359 --> 0:25:08.280
<v Speaker 1>the leader of the free world. But sorry, by default

0:25:08.440 --> 0:25:10.520
<v Speaker 1>is the leader of the free worlds leader of the

0:25:10.520 --> 0:25:14.159
<v Speaker 1>free world. But well, he is the most important person

0:25:14.359 --> 0:25:17.240
<v Speaker 1>in in the world in politics right now, and he

0:25:17.359 --> 0:25:19.800
<v Speaker 1>is very vocal. And I do agree with you that

0:25:19.840 --> 0:25:23.399
<v Speaker 1>this does express a level of exasperation among his aids.

0:25:25.359 --> 0:25:28.600
<v Speaker 1>Stop for one second, notice how this analyst. You know,

0:25:28.680 --> 0:25:30.399
<v Speaker 1>he's not the leader of the free world. This is like,

0:25:30.640 --> 0:25:34.119
<v Speaker 1>he's not my president. Not my president. This is the

0:25:34.160 --> 0:25:38.600
<v Speaker 1>Trumps arrangement delusion. The leader of the free world is

0:25:38.600 --> 0:25:42.040
<v Speaker 1>a title that we all give to the President United States. Okay,

0:25:42.280 --> 0:25:45.320
<v Speaker 1>Angela Merkel is a no position to lead the free world.

0:25:45.840 --> 0:25:49.280
<v Speaker 1>Angela Merkel was your to to borrow from. I think

0:25:49.280 --> 0:25:51.040
<v Speaker 1>it was Ross douth It in the New York Times.

0:25:51.560 --> 0:25:54.720
<v Speaker 1>She was European far right nationalisms woman of the Year.

0:25:54.760 --> 0:25:58.440
<v Speaker 1>In her whole experiment of let's bring in a million

0:25:58.480 --> 0:26:00.840
<v Speaker 1>people from the Muslim world who are refugees and see

0:26:00.840 --> 0:26:05.040
<v Speaker 1>what happens did not work out well. In fact, in

0:26:05.080 --> 0:26:09.880
<v Speaker 1>a lot of ways, Brexit and trumps um are tied

0:26:10.040 --> 0:26:15.680
<v Speaker 1>to the fiasco of mircalism. Corton talk, yeah, Mercanism, it's

0:26:15.720 --> 0:26:20.080
<v Speaker 1>so much fun to talk about ZIMRCA. But this analyst

0:26:20.080 --> 0:26:22.280
<v Speaker 1>that MSNBC says that she's the leader of the free

0:26:22.280 --> 0:26:24.720
<v Speaker 1>will you know this is this is part of the

0:26:24.760 --> 0:26:28.679
<v Speaker 1>mindset that they are picking another leader over over ours,

0:26:28.680 --> 0:26:32.200
<v Speaker 1>that they seem to believe that there are other people

0:26:32.240 --> 0:26:34.760
<v Speaker 1>out there, other countries now have stepped in this leadership role.

0:26:34.800 --> 0:26:37.159
<v Speaker 1>That's not true. What is Germany doing to lead the

0:26:37.160 --> 0:26:40.359
<v Speaker 1>free world? In what I mean? Germany has got a

0:26:40.440 --> 0:26:45.159
<v Speaker 1>lot of problems, by the way, including what it's going

0:26:45.200 --> 0:26:48.320
<v Speaker 1>to do about immigration, including what's going to happen as

0:26:48.359 --> 0:26:50.920
<v Speaker 1>a result of some of these some of these policies.

0:26:50.960 --> 0:26:52.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean, let let me give you another example. This

0:26:52.520 --> 0:26:56.800
<v Speaker 1>by the way, um, this is how the Washington Post

0:26:56.840 --> 0:27:00.480
<v Speaker 1>writes about the throw down between this country and Turkey.

0:27:00.480 --> 0:27:03.679
<v Speaker 1>Remember the Washington Post is a US paper, folks. This

0:27:03.760 --> 0:27:06.760
<v Speaker 1>is how they frame this issue. Erduan capital Arouan is

0:27:06.760 --> 0:27:11.080
<v Speaker 1>of course the president of Turkey. Are Douan capitalizes on

0:27:11.119 --> 0:27:14.679
<v Speaker 1>Trump's effort to break and isolate Turkey and here's how

0:27:14.680 --> 0:27:16.960
<v Speaker 1>they write about this quote. When President Trump tried to

0:27:17.160 --> 0:27:20.920
<v Speaker 1>strong arm Turkey into releasing a detained American pastor this month,

0:27:21.320 --> 0:27:24.879
<v Speaker 1>he gambled at a barrage of punishing measures, market rattling

0:27:24.880 --> 0:27:28.679
<v Speaker 1>economic sanctions, and humiliating public rebukes would force President are

0:27:28.720 --> 0:27:31.920
<v Speaker 1>to Wan to quickly relent. That has not happened more

0:27:31.960 --> 0:27:34.200
<v Speaker 1>than three weeks after the crisis started. The pastor is

0:27:34.200 --> 0:27:36.960
<v Speaker 1>still under house arrest, and are to Wan for the moment,

0:27:37.400 --> 0:27:40.919
<v Speaker 1>appears unbowed. Now. I know you can argue that that's

0:27:40.960 --> 0:27:43.080
<v Speaker 1>a factual recitation of what's gone on, or it's a

0:27:43.080 --> 0:27:47.120
<v Speaker 1>factually accurate recitation, but that reads very much like yeah,

0:27:47.240 --> 0:27:50.800
<v Speaker 1>aridauan stand up to Trump. To me, that reads like

0:27:50.840 --> 0:27:53.679
<v Speaker 1>they're rooting for a Turkish strong man, very much in

0:27:53.680 --> 0:27:55.280
<v Speaker 1>the mold of Putin, who is, by the way, very

0:27:55.320 --> 0:27:58.520
<v Speaker 1>pro hamass. And if we dug a little deeper, we'd

0:27:58.520 --> 0:28:03.080
<v Speaker 1>find some really unsaved reconnections to the Islamic state. Trust me,

0:28:03.240 --> 0:28:06.919
<v Speaker 1>between the Turkish government and Isis that's already there. But

0:28:07.000 --> 0:28:11.520
<v Speaker 1>the Washington Post is rooting for not our president because

0:28:11.520 --> 0:28:15.080
<v Speaker 1>he's not because Trump is not their president, not my president.

0:28:15.520 --> 0:28:18.280
<v Speaker 1>I'll never forget those rallies in New York. I walked

0:28:18.320 --> 0:28:20.000
<v Speaker 1>into one by accident. I was trying to get home.

0:28:20.359 --> 0:28:24.000
<v Speaker 1>Not my president, not no, it's like, no, no, inaccurate.

0:28:24.240 --> 0:28:26.560
<v Speaker 1>He is in fact your president. But John, please continue

0:28:26.560 --> 0:28:29.320
<v Speaker 1>with that, with that MSNBC panel, because because it gets

0:28:29.440 --> 0:28:33.320
<v Speaker 1>worse your yeah, go ahead, I'm sorry your argument that

0:28:33.359 --> 0:28:34.720
<v Speaker 1>he is not the leader of the free world, because

0:28:34.720 --> 0:28:39.800
<v Speaker 1>he's not. He's a sort of junior player in a

0:28:39.840 --> 0:28:43.200
<v Speaker 1>block of authoritarian country and no, and the people like

0:28:43.280 --> 0:28:45.560
<v Speaker 1>the European Union are no longer looking at him as

0:28:45.560 --> 0:28:48.640
<v Speaker 1>a leader any longer. And I think is right. They

0:28:48.680 --> 0:28:51.240
<v Speaker 1>see he's instead he's like right, he's part of the

0:28:51.280 --> 0:28:54.920
<v Speaker 1>block that includes Vladimir Prutin to Terte, he's you know,

0:28:55.040 --> 0:28:57.200
<v Speaker 1>he's kind of part of a he's part of kind

0:28:57.200 --> 0:29:02.680
<v Speaker 1>of an access that it's it's worse than I mean,

0:29:03.160 --> 0:29:04.960
<v Speaker 1>not that that's not the worst thing that could have said,

0:29:04.960 --> 0:29:07.040
<v Speaker 1>because it's about the worst thing could say about him,

0:29:07.160 --> 0:29:10.440
<v Speaker 1>but not the rounding people up and murdering, murdering them

0:29:10.440 --> 0:29:13.160
<v Speaker 1>without any you know, to process, and they like to

0:29:14.960 --> 0:29:18.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't think you can say that definitively. Did you

0:29:18.720 --> 0:29:20.040
<v Speaker 1>did you catch that? I know there's a lot of

0:29:20.080 --> 0:29:22.840
<v Speaker 1>like a lot a lot of you know, chirping over

0:29:22.880 --> 0:29:26.640
<v Speaker 1>each other there, But he would, certainly he would. That

0:29:26.720 --> 0:29:30.120
<v Speaker 1>was a paid political analyst on TV saying that the

0:29:30.120 --> 0:29:32.120
<v Speaker 1>current president United States would like to round people up

0:29:32.160 --> 0:29:35.200
<v Speaker 1>and execute them. And they think that that's both insightful

0:29:35.240 --> 0:29:39.120
<v Speaker 1>and funny to say on National TV. I don't remember

0:29:39.120 --> 0:29:43.600
<v Speaker 1>anybody that anyone thought was even remotely intelligence saying that

0:29:43.600 --> 0:29:45.800
<v Speaker 1>about Obama, that Obama was looking around people up and

0:29:45.840 --> 0:29:49.320
<v Speaker 1>execute them. No, nobody said that, because that's stupid, right,

0:29:49.400 --> 0:29:53.280
<v Speaker 1>that's stupid. It's reckless, and there's no basis for it.

0:29:53.760 --> 0:29:56.000
<v Speaker 1>But this passes for just kind of a casual Oh yeah,

0:29:56.040 --> 0:30:00.160
<v Speaker 1>of course, you know, casual conversation over at MSNBC. It

0:30:00.320 --> 0:30:03.400
<v Speaker 1>passes for just the way the way they talk about

0:30:03.400 --> 0:30:05.440
<v Speaker 1>this this stuff all the time. Noticed they also they

0:30:05.480 --> 0:30:08.600
<v Speaker 1>put Trump in the same category as Dette in the

0:30:08.600 --> 0:30:13.360
<v Speaker 1>Philippines and Vladimir Putin based on what because he because

0:30:13.360 --> 0:30:16.840
<v Speaker 1>he pushes back on on media narratives. Our media is biased.

0:30:16.840 --> 0:30:19.760
<v Speaker 1>They're in the tank for Democrats. Okay, that's just reality.

0:30:19.800 --> 0:30:21.800
<v Speaker 1>They can cry about it all day, but they're a

0:30:21.800 --> 0:30:27.160
<v Speaker 1>bunch of Democrat wanna be whiners, and we see it

0:30:27.960 --> 0:30:29.520
<v Speaker 1>we see it day in and day out, and so

0:30:29.600 --> 0:30:31.320
<v Speaker 1>Trump pushes back, and now we're supposed to think that

0:30:31.360 --> 0:30:35.960
<v Speaker 1>he's some evil dictator because of it. He isn't jailed anyone. Fact.

0:30:36.480 --> 0:30:41.200
<v Speaker 1>Obama was more dangerous to journalism than Trump was by

0:30:41.240 --> 0:30:46.400
<v Speaker 1>a mile, But they won't tell you that. Instead they'll

0:30:46.440 --> 0:30:50.640
<v Speaker 1>sit there and and sneer and snicker and laugh at

0:30:50.880 --> 0:30:54.680
<v Speaker 1>the notion that Trump he's that they could notice how

0:30:54.680 --> 0:30:57.120
<v Speaker 1>they also they ran out of ways to say how

0:30:57.200 --> 0:30:59.440
<v Speaker 1>bad he is. They couldn't come out and come up

0:30:59.440 --> 0:31:02.640
<v Speaker 1>with a new pejorative for him. You know, Oh, well

0:31:02.640 --> 0:31:05.360
<v Speaker 1>he's he's worse than That's the worst thing you can say.

0:31:05.400 --> 0:31:07.640
<v Speaker 1>But he's not even that bad. I mean, this is

0:31:07.640 --> 0:31:09.080
<v Speaker 1>what they do. They try to one up each other.

0:31:10.200 --> 0:31:12.080
<v Speaker 1>You know, this is like a bunch of five year

0:31:12.080 --> 0:31:13.920
<v Speaker 1>olds arguing about, you know, my dad can beat up

0:31:13.920 --> 0:31:16.400
<v Speaker 1>your dad. I mean, this is just idiocy on display.

0:31:18.920 --> 0:31:23.280
<v Speaker 1>That's how they do things. Um speaking about MSNBC and

0:31:24.280 --> 0:31:30.040
<v Speaker 1>things not being brilliant over there, uh, and situations being uh,

0:31:30.320 --> 0:31:35.040
<v Speaker 1>let's just say more humorous than intended. This one's amazing, folks.

0:31:35.240 --> 0:31:37.080
<v Speaker 1>I want to play this for you. You know, the

0:31:37.320 --> 0:31:40.080
<v Speaker 1>Reverend Al has how to show overt MSNBC for quite

0:31:40.080 --> 0:31:42.560
<v Speaker 1>a long time. And those of us who grew up

0:31:42.560 --> 0:31:44.280
<v Speaker 1>in New York City know that Al Sharpton is a

0:31:44.360 --> 0:31:49.760
<v Speaker 1>charlatan and a hack and highly unethical, but they give

0:31:49.800 --> 0:31:51.800
<v Speaker 1>him a show at MSNBC. Anyway, He's had it for

0:31:51.840 --> 0:31:56.360
<v Speaker 1>a long time and occasionally has prompt trouble. Occasionally has

0:31:56.360 --> 0:31:58.480
<v Speaker 1>prompt trouble. And and this is how this went. Play

0:31:58.640 --> 0:32:01.640
<v Speaker 1>play the clip please from over the weekend speaking about

0:32:01.720 --> 0:32:04.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, Trump and Amarossa, and he brings in Aretha

0:32:04.080 --> 0:32:07.720
<v Speaker 1>Franklin played the clip. You know what they say about payback,

0:32:08.240 --> 0:32:12.040
<v Speaker 1>it's a real well you I'm sure you know the

0:32:12.120 --> 0:32:15.520
<v Speaker 1>word I'm thinking of. So, in the words of my

0:32:15.640 --> 0:32:19.640
<v Speaker 1>late friend Aretha Franklin, show some R E s p

0:32:19.880 --> 0:32:26.160
<v Speaker 1>I s c T R s p I c T. Folks. Oh,

0:32:26.360 --> 0:32:28.000
<v Speaker 1>we don't have the rest of that clip, but he

0:32:28.120 --> 0:32:33.240
<v Speaker 1>goes on after that, he doesn't correct it. R E

0:32:33.480 --> 0:32:36.920
<v Speaker 1>s p I c T. That is what indeed from

0:32:37.000 --> 0:32:42.560
<v Speaker 1>me R E s p I C T ris respect.

0:32:44.280 --> 0:32:47.320
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I don't know rever. Now, I gotta tell you,

0:32:47.560 --> 0:32:50.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm pretty sure I knew that song in the third grade.

0:32:50.080 --> 0:32:51.760
<v Speaker 1>I think it might be the song that I knew,

0:32:52.360 --> 0:32:54.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, one of the first songs I could ever

0:32:54.080 --> 0:32:55.800
<v Speaker 1>sing the words to. And I think that's true. Probably

0:32:55.840 --> 0:32:58.880
<v Speaker 1>all of you listening, have you ever heard anyone to

0:32:58.920 --> 0:33:01.760
<v Speaker 1>misspelled that before? Have you ever heard somebody misspelled the

0:33:01.840 --> 0:33:04.600
<v Speaker 1>name of that or the word in that song? R

0:33:04.640 --> 0:33:10.320
<v Speaker 1>E spr c T second to second to R E

0:33:10.560 --> 0:33:16.120
<v Speaker 1>s pr c T. Yeah TV host Everybody informing you

0:33:16.160 --> 0:33:19.840
<v Speaker 1>about politics and life in America. Courtesy of MSNBC. The

0:33:19.960 --> 0:33:35.920
<v Speaker 1>Reverend OW, We'll be right back. I was raped by

0:33:35.960 --> 0:33:40.240
<v Speaker 1>Harvey Weinstein here I can. I was twenty one years old.

0:33:41.160 --> 0:33:46.160
<v Speaker 1>This festival was his hunting ground. Harvey Weinstein will never

0:33:46.200 --> 0:33:50.680
<v Speaker 1>be welcomed her ever again. He will live in disgrace,

0:33:51.400 --> 0:33:55.320
<v Speaker 1>shunned by your film community that once embraced him and

0:33:55.520 --> 0:34:00.400
<v Speaker 1>covered up for his crimes. And even tonight, sitting among you,

0:34:01.400 --> 0:34:05.000
<v Speaker 1>there are those who still have to be held accountable

0:34:05.280 --> 0:34:10.600
<v Speaker 1>for their conduct against women, for a behavior that does

0:34:10.680 --> 0:34:13.680
<v Speaker 1>not belong in this industry, does not belong in any

0:34:13.680 --> 0:34:18.520
<v Speaker 1>industry or workplace. You know who you are, but most importantly,

0:34:19.239 --> 0:34:21.880
<v Speaker 1>we know who you are and we're not going to

0:34:21.920 --> 0:34:25.880
<v Speaker 1>allow you to get away with it any longer. So

0:34:25.960 --> 0:34:31.920
<v Speaker 1>that's Asia Argento, who is considered a leader up there

0:34:31.920 --> 0:34:34.960
<v Speaker 1>with Rose McGowan of the Me Too movement, and that

0:34:35.080 --> 0:34:38.000
<v Speaker 1>was her speech at Khan at the Cohn Film Festival

0:34:38.440 --> 0:34:41.600
<v Speaker 1>after the Harvey Weinstein revelations had come out, and they

0:34:41.600 --> 0:34:43.840
<v Speaker 1>said she's she's considered one of the most prominent voices

0:34:44.000 --> 0:34:47.200
<v Speaker 1>on the Me too movement about outing sexual harassers and

0:34:47.200 --> 0:34:50.680
<v Speaker 1>getting justice for those who have been sexually assaulted, particularly

0:34:50.719 --> 0:34:54.319
<v Speaker 1>in the in the film and entertainment industry. And she's

0:34:54.360 --> 0:35:00.359
<v Speaker 1>also the girlfriend of uh of Anthony bord Aine who

0:35:00.440 --> 0:35:03.040
<v Speaker 1>killed himself earlier this year. And you just had the

0:35:03.120 --> 0:35:06.520
<v Speaker 1>story break today. I it's tough to know really, uh,

0:35:06.719 --> 0:35:11.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's just a shock that a young actor

0:35:11.400 --> 0:35:14.800
<v Speaker 1>claims that she paid him off, that Asia Argento paid

0:35:14.920 --> 0:35:18.799
<v Speaker 1>him off because she had sex with him when he

0:35:18.960 --> 0:35:22.880
<v Speaker 1>was underage in the state of California now to California

0:35:22.880 --> 0:35:25.719
<v Speaker 1>has an eighteen year old age of consent. He was seventeen,

0:35:25.760 --> 0:35:27.200
<v Speaker 1>so he was he was close to it, but he

0:35:27.239 --> 0:35:31.319
<v Speaker 1>was under age and that you know, they they had,

0:35:31.600 --> 0:35:35.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, a sexual relationship, and she paid him. According

0:35:35.080 --> 0:35:37.320
<v Speaker 1>to support in the Hollywood Reporter, CNN is on the

0:35:37.360 --> 0:35:39.239
<v Speaker 1>story to a lot of places are reporting on this

0:35:39.840 --> 0:35:44.240
<v Speaker 1>paid him over three hundred thousand dollars for his silence.

0:35:45.480 --> 0:35:47.799
<v Speaker 1>I just I gotta tell you, I did not see

0:35:47.840 --> 0:35:52.560
<v Speaker 1>this one coming, did not see this as a possible

0:35:53.360 --> 0:35:56.160
<v Speaker 1>twist in this whole situation. It doesn't really change anything

0:35:56.200 --> 0:35:58.560
<v Speaker 1>about the Me too movement, but it just goes to

0:35:58.600 --> 0:36:02.720
<v Speaker 1>show you that sometimes the loudest voices on an issue

0:36:03.840 --> 0:36:07.000
<v Speaker 1>are ones that have their own demons that they're hiding. It.

0:36:07.360 --> 0:36:09.920
<v Speaker 1>Very strange, very unsettling situation. I'm want to think more

0:36:09.920 --> 0:36:11.680
<v Speaker 1>about this one. I might have worn it later this week,

0:36:11.719 --> 0:36:14.200
<v Speaker 1>but we got Kim Strasso from the Wall Street Journal

0:36:14.280 --> 0:36:16.839
<v Speaker 1>joining us to talk about Bruce or that's coming up.

0:36:19.239 --> 0:36:21.719
<v Speaker 1>The FBI says that home title theft is one of

0:36:21.719 --> 0:36:25.279
<v Speaker 1>the fastest growing crimes out there. Brace yourselves, because having

0:36:25.280 --> 0:36:27.920
<v Speaker 1>your credit card stolen is nothing compared to the hell

0:36:28.040 --> 0:36:31.040
<v Speaker 1>you're in for once an identity thief takes control of

0:36:31.040 --> 0:36:34.040
<v Speaker 1>your homes title. Everything is stored online these days, folks,

0:36:34.080 --> 0:36:37.319
<v Speaker 1>including the title to your home. That means that the

0:36:37.320 --> 0:36:41.080
<v Speaker 1>bad guys, domestic and international cyber thieves, they can actually

0:36:41.280 --> 0:36:43.759
<v Speaker 1>hunt down your homes title and use it against you.

0:36:43.960 --> 0:36:47.960
<v Speaker 1>I have seen a demonstration of this process is shockingly easy.

0:36:48.000 --> 0:36:51.320
<v Speaker 1>To steal your homes title. And once that happens, oh gosh,

0:36:51.320 --> 0:36:53.680
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna be getting all these bills coming to you

0:36:53.719 --> 0:36:55.759
<v Speaker 1>for loans you didn't take out. It's a nightmare to

0:36:55.800 --> 0:36:58.200
<v Speaker 1>deal with. Don't let it happen to you for just

0:36:58.280 --> 0:37:01.960
<v Speaker 1>pennies a day. Home title protects my most viable asset,

<v Speaker 1>a great American Again. This is the Buck Sexton Show. Analysts. No,

0:37:48.239 --> 0:37:51.080
<v Speaker 1>I think Brusour is a disgrace. I suspect I'll be

0:37:51.080 --> 0:37:54.680
<v Speaker 1>taking it away very quickly. I think that Brussour is

0:37:54.719 --> 0:37:57.719
<v Speaker 1>a disgrace with his wife Nellie. For him to be

0:37:57.800 --> 0:38:00.839
<v Speaker 1>in the Justice Department had to be doing what he did.

0:38:01.239 --> 0:38:05.520
<v Speaker 1>That is a disgrace. That is disqualifying for Mueller, and

0:38:05.640 --> 0:38:09.480
<v Speaker 1>Mr Mueller has a lot of conflicts also directly yourself,

0:38:09.560 --> 0:38:13.319
<v Speaker 1>so you know that Mr Muller is highly conflicted. In fact,

0:38:13.960 --> 0:38:17.120
<v Speaker 1>uh Tomy is like his best friend. I could go

0:38:17.160 --> 0:38:21.480
<v Speaker 1>into conflict after conflict, but sadly Mr Muller is conflicted.

0:38:21.680 --> 0:38:24.719
<v Speaker 1>But let him write his report. We did nothing, there's

0:38:24.760 --> 0:38:28.000
<v Speaker 1>no collusion. But if he was doing an honest report,

0:38:28.280 --> 0:38:30.920
<v Speaker 1>he'd write it on the other side, because when you

0:38:30.960 --> 0:38:34.279
<v Speaker 1>look at criminality and you look at problems, take a

0:38:34.280 --> 0:38:37.560
<v Speaker 1>look at what they did, including colluding with the Russias.

0:38:37.760 --> 0:38:43.360
<v Speaker 1>The other side, what was Bruce Or doing? Right? Remember

0:38:43.360 --> 0:38:45.799
<v Speaker 1>Bruce Or was I think number four the Department of

0:38:45.880 --> 0:38:49.600
<v Speaker 1>Justice and very much involved in the dossier, Russia collusion

0:38:49.680 --> 0:38:52.680
<v Speaker 1>and all that stuff. His name is popped up a bunch.

0:38:52.760 --> 0:38:56.319
<v Speaker 1>You remember his wife, Nellie Or was actually an employee

0:38:56.440 --> 0:39:00.560
<v Speaker 1>of Fusion GPS, which paid for and then manufactured uh

0:39:00.640 --> 0:39:03.560
<v Speaker 1>the dossier, sent helped pay and send it around. Right,

0:39:03.600 --> 0:39:06.000
<v Speaker 1>all this stuff going on. So the big question is

0:39:06.080 --> 0:39:08.719
<v Speaker 1>what was Bruce Or doing? And it is the one

0:39:08.800 --> 0:39:11.399
<v Speaker 1>that our next guest addresses in her latest column. Kim

0:39:11.440 --> 0:39:13.839
<v Speaker 1>Strassol is with us now. She's on the Wall Street

0:39:13.920 --> 0:39:16.400
<v Speaker 1>Journal at a chorial board. She's a columnist also the

0:39:16.440 --> 0:39:20.080
<v Speaker 1>author of The Intimidation Game. Kim great to have you on.

0:39:20.160 --> 0:39:21.960
<v Speaker 1>Thank you so much for joining. Uh, I just want

0:39:21.960 --> 0:39:24.200
<v Speaker 1>to pose your question to you. So, what the heck

0:39:24.320 --> 0:39:29.880
<v Speaker 1>was Bruce doing? Hi, Hi Buck, thanks for having me on. Um. Well,

0:39:29.920 --> 0:39:33.320
<v Speaker 1>look here's we know what he's doing. He was funneling

0:39:33.400 --> 0:39:38.719
<v Speaker 1>information from Christopher Steele, the obviously the author of the

0:39:38.760 --> 0:39:42.480
<v Speaker 1>infamous dossier, from Christopher Steel to the FBI. And the

0:39:42.480 --> 0:39:45.840
<v Speaker 1>reason that this matters is that the FBI had already

0:39:45.960 --> 0:39:49.839
<v Speaker 1>terminated Christopher Steele as a confidential human source. He had

0:39:49.920 --> 0:39:54.080
<v Speaker 1>broken all of the FBI's rules by talking to the press,

0:39:54.120 --> 0:39:56.239
<v Speaker 1>and so they said, we can no longer work with you.

0:39:56.640 --> 0:39:59.560
<v Speaker 1>And yet we now find that months after that happened,

0:39:59.640 --> 0:40:02.719
<v Speaker 1>Bruce or the senior Member of the Judiciary, is act

0:40:02.880 --> 0:40:06.120
<v Speaker 1>or at the Justice Department, is acting as an intermediary

0:40:06.600 --> 0:40:10.640
<v Speaker 1>and and sending information from Christopher Steele to the FBI.

0:40:10.920 --> 0:40:14.600
<v Speaker 1>And he's doing that even though his wife works for

0:40:15.480 --> 0:40:18.879
<v Speaker 1>the same organization that Christopher Steele does. He obviously has

0:40:18.920 --> 0:40:22.080
<v Speaker 1>a huge conflict of interest. He does not disclose this,

0:40:22.200 --> 0:40:24.279
<v Speaker 1>at least not in his financial forms, and as so

0:40:24.360 --> 0:40:27.160
<v Speaker 1>far as we know, not to his superiors. UM. And

0:40:27.200 --> 0:40:31.480
<v Speaker 1>so that's an issue as well too. Now this would

0:40:31.480 --> 0:40:33.480
<v Speaker 1>seem to me to be a case of Kim Or

0:40:33.520 --> 0:40:36.080
<v Speaker 1>We would already have a lot of answers here. Why

0:40:36.120 --> 0:40:38.200
<v Speaker 1>haven't Why have we heard more about this guy? I mean,

0:40:38.360 --> 0:40:41.760
<v Speaker 1>the conflict of interest just in that his his wife

0:40:42.520 --> 0:40:44.680
<v Speaker 1>was Look, I think we can all assume that he

0:40:44.680 --> 0:40:47.560
<v Speaker 1>was talking to his wife a lot, right, they lived together, uh,

0:40:47.600 --> 0:40:50.640
<v Speaker 1>and and she she helped bring this information to him.

0:40:51.320 --> 0:40:53.680
<v Speaker 1>How can the FBI justifying this or do we just

0:40:53.719 --> 0:40:57.120
<v Speaker 1>not know what the FBI really says about it? Well,

0:40:57.160 --> 0:40:59.399
<v Speaker 1>they haven't even tried to justify it, and I think

0:40:59.440 --> 0:41:03.200
<v Speaker 1>because it's unjustifiable, and this is an important point I

0:41:03.280 --> 0:41:05.359
<v Speaker 1>tried to make in the columns it up until now,

0:41:05.400 --> 0:41:08.480
<v Speaker 1>the FBI has continued to insist it did nothing wrong

0:41:08.640 --> 0:41:12.879
<v Speaker 1>during despite you know, everything that we know about what

0:41:12.920 --> 0:41:16.160
<v Speaker 1>they did do about using the dossier, not telling the

0:41:16.200 --> 0:41:21.400
<v Speaker 1>court entirely about the dossier, running informants into a presidential campaign.

0:41:21.480 --> 0:41:23.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean, these are things that I think should be

0:41:23.160 --> 0:41:25.160
<v Speaker 1>very troubling to anyone, no matter what side of the

0:41:25.160 --> 0:41:28.399
<v Speaker 1>aisle you're on. But throughout that they've insisted did nothing wrong.

0:41:28.760 --> 0:41:32.520
<v Speaker 1>This clearly is problematic. Um, not just in terms of

0:41:32.560 --> 0:41:35.239
<v Speaker 1>what Mr Orr himself did and the fact that he

0:41:35.280 --> 0:41:39.279
<v Speaker 1>didn't disclose it, um, but that the FBI chose to

0:41:39.400 --> 0:41:44.080
<v Speaker 1>use him because again remember that this informant program or

0:41:44.239 --> 0:41:47.239
<v Speaker 1>source program that they had that Mr Steele was part of,

0:41:47.280 --> 0:41:49.279
<v Speaker 1>that they were using. It's not some willy nilly thing.

0:41:49.320 --> 0:41:53.440
<v Speaker 1>It's got rules, guidelines, is entire manual gathering, you know,

0:41:53.520 --> 0:41:57.120
<v Speaker 1>governing who can be an informant to and a source

0:41:57.200 --> 0:41:59.880
<v Speaker 1>for the FBI, and what they need to do to

0:42:00.040 --> 0:42:03.560
<v Speaker 1>maintain that status, and what the agents handling them need

0:42:03.680 --> 0:42:07.520
<v Speaker 1>to do. Um. And this was all disregarded, and the

0:42:07.560 --> 0:42:11.360
<v Speaker 1>FBI went back to Bruce or uh And and continued

0:42:11.440 --> 0:42:15.480
<v Speaker 1>to obtain information from a source that they had terminated

0:42:15.520 --> 0:42:19.120
<v Speaker 1>for violating their own rules. What would happen here? What

0:42:19.200 --> 0:42:22.160
<v Speaker 1>has to happen, Kim for there to be accountability for

0:42:22.239 --> 0:42:24.279
<v Speaker 1>how this was handled the dj N FBI side. I

0:42:24.719 --> 0:42:26.640
<v Speaker 1>mean I put myself in this category. I think a

0:42:26.640 --> 0:42:29.160
<v Speaker 1>lot of folks feel like we you know, this just

0:42:29.280 --> 0:42:32.720
<v Speaker 1>this is drags on, It drags on, and you know, yes, okay,

0:42:32.880 --> 0:42:36.000
<v Speaker 1>Struck was Struck was fired, McCabe was fired. I mean

0:42:36.000 --> 0:42:38.279
<v Speaker 1>some people have could have been fired. Are we ever

0:42:38.280 --> 0:42:41.279
<v Speaker 1>going to get a comprehensive report on just what they did.

0:42:41.320 --> 0:42:44.839
<v Speaker 1>I mean the president's in power, he should be able

0:42:44.880 --> 0:42:48.200
<v Speaker 1>to direct the executive branch to produce the necessary documents

0:42:48.239 --> 0:42:50.520
<v Speaker 1>give us the information. Is it a function of waiting

0:42:50.560 --> 0:42:53.000
<v Speaker 1>for the Mueller probe to end? I mean, essentially, is

0:42:53.000 --> 0:42:55.439
<v Speaker 1>the are the President's hands tied to try to get

0:42:55.440 --> 0:42:57.480
<v Speaker 1>to the truth here and let the American people know

0:42:57.520 --> 0:42:59.840
<v Speaker 1>what happened, because anything that he does is going to

0:42:59.840 --> 0:43:02.279
<v Speaker 1>be called meddling in the ongoing Mueller probe. What do

0:43:02.320 --> 0:43:04.600
<v Speaker 1>you make of all that? Well, I think we can

0:43:04.600 --> 0:43:07.080
<v Speaker 1>feel pretty confident that we are never going to get

0:43:07.120 --> 0:43:10.440
<v Speaker 1>an internal house cleaning and a report and an admission

0:43:10.480 --> 0:43:13.000
<v Speaker 1>of a problem from within d o J or FBI.

0:43:13.360 --> 0:43:16.359
<v Speaker 1>That is really, to me very disappointing that you do

0:43:16.440 --> 0:43:19.320
<v Speaker 1>have two new leaders there, Rob Rosenstein at the Department

0:43:19.320 --> 0:43:22.360
<v Speaker 1>of Justice and Christopher Ray. Neither of them have shown

0:43:22.400 --> 0:43:25.719
<v Speaker 1>an inkling of interest and saying, look, there is a

0:43:25.800 --> 0:43:29.000
<v Speaker 1>problem here, we are looking into it. This is why

0:43:29.000 --> 0:43:31.120
<v Speaker 1>so and so was fired, This is why so and

0:43:31.160 --> 0:43:34.280
<v Speaker 1>so was moved out of their position. Because remember, nearly

0:43:34.360 --> 0:43:37.439
<v Speaker 1>every part of that comy inner circle has now either

0:43:37.520 --> 0:43:40.799
<v Speaker 1>been fired or removed from their jobs or retired. Um.

0:43:40.800 --> 0:43:43.120
<v Speaker 1>That is to me an admission that there was clearly

0:43:43.160 --> 0:43:46.600
<v Speaker 1>a big problem and that internally they recognized it, but

0:43:46.640 --> 0:43:49.200
<v Speaker 1>they have not come clean to the public. So the

0:43:49.320 --> 0:43:52.160
<v Speaker 1>question then, I mean, we at the editorial page of

0:43:52.200 --> 0:43:55.759
<v Speaker 1>the Wall Street Journal have been advocating every chance we

0:43:55.880 --> 0:44:01.760
<v Speaker 1>have that the President uh declassified many of these documents.

0:44:01.760 --> 0:44:03.960
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't have to be a lot. There's a discreete

0:44:03.960 --> 0:44:06.480
<v Speaker 1>a number of them. We even went out and said,

0:44:06.520 --> 0:44:09.040
<v Speaker 1>here are the ones that would provide the most information

0:44:09.080 --> 0:44:11.680
<v Speaker 1>to the American public um and at least to get

0:44:11.760 --> 0:44:13.640
<v Speaker 1>that out there. And then, because I think the only

0:44:13.640 --> 0:44:16.520
<v Speaker 1>other avenue we really have will be to wait for

0:44:16.560 --> 0:44:18.959
<v Speaker 1>the Inspector General's report, but that could be at least

0:44:18.960 --> 0:44:22.719
<v Speaker 1>another year in coming. Kim, I've got a theory I

0:44:22.719 --> 0:44:24.240
<v Speaker 1>want to test out on you and everybody. We're speaking

0:44:24.239 --> 0:44:26.880
<v Speaker 1>of Kim Strasso, obviously of the Wall Street Journal. Her

0:44:26.920 --> 0:44:30.120
<v Speaker 1>pieces what was Bruce or doing? She tries to answer it,

0:44:30.160 --> 0:44:33.680
<v Speaker 1>but the the the short version is wasn't good. Uh So,

0:44:33.680 --> 0:44:35.279
<v Speaker 1>so you should definitely all check that out. But Kim,

0:44:35.280 --> 0:44:37.680
<v Speaker 1>here's my theory. Because people have asked me this, they say,

0:44:37.680 --> 0:44:39.920
<v Speaker 1>how is it that you have some of these individuals

0:44:40.400 --> 0:44:43.040
<v Speaker 1>at FBI, d O J who seemed like and I'm

0:44:43.040 --> 0:44:44.600
<v Speaker 1>not talking about the ones that have already been fired

0:44:44.719 --> 0:44:46.920
<v Speaker 1>or under suspicion, but I mean, you know, you mentioned

0:44:47.120 --> 0:44:49.880
<v Speaker 1>Christopher Ray, for example, FBI director. How is it that

0:44:49.920 --> 0:44:52.359
<v Speaker 1>these guys are also in on it? And I try

0:44:52.360 --> 0:44:54.759
<v Speaker 1>to explain it to people this way. I think that

0:44:54.840 --> 0:44:57.600
<v Speaker 1>if we really knew what happened at the top reaches

0:44:57.640 --> 0:44:59.319
<v Speaker 1>of the d o J and the FBI, I mean,

0:44:59.360 --> 0:45:02.440
<v Speaker 1>if we really without you know, the games and the redactions,

0:45:02.840 --> 0:45:05.880
<v Speaker 1>if the American people found out the truth, they would

0:45:06.239 --> 0:45:08.360
<v Speaker 1>have a very hard time thinking of the FBI the

0:45:08.440 --> 0:45:11.520
<v Speaker 1>d o J in the same way. And so even

0:45:11.640 --> 0:45:14.800
<v Speaker 1>for those who are not necessarily anti Trump or you know,

0:45:14.840 --> 0:45:18.400
<v Speaker 1>they weren't Hillary cronies, but people that are institutionalists that

0:45:18.440 --> 0:45:20.400
<v Speaker 1>have spent a lot of time in those decades, in

0:45:20.440 --> 0:45:23.600
<v Speaker 1>many cases in those organizations, they feel like they have

0:45:23.719 --> 0:45:28.240
<v Speaker 1>a duty to the greater good to protect those institutions

0:45:28.640 --> 0:45:31.920
<v Speaker 1>from the you know, the the ire and the the

0:45:31.920 --> 0:45:35.040
<v Speaker 1>the distrust for generations the American people. What do you

0:45:35.040 --> 0:45:38.319
<v Speaker 1>think about that? I think you've nailed it. This has

0:45:38.440 --> 0:45:42.640
<v Speaker 1>long been my argument too, that these folks are institutionalist,

0:45:43.120 --> 0:45:45.680
<v Speaker 1>and I think part of it is what you describe

0:45:45.800 --> 0:45:49.520
<v Speaker 1>that they feel the need to protect the department or

0:45:49.560 --> 0:45:52.880
<v Speaker 1>agency that they work for, UH to the extent that

0:45:52.920 --> 0:45:56.000
<v Speaker 1>they are willing to overlook and even justify things that

0:45:56.040 --> 0:45:59.040
<v Speaker 1>if they were on the outside, they would not. I

0:45:59.080 --> 0:46:02.319
<v Speaker 1>think too. It's also a bit of an I use

0:46:02.400 --> 0:46:06.319
<v Speaker 1>this word carefully, but but craven nous and that you

0:46:06.400 --> 0:46:08.520
<v Speaker 1>and I both know if you work in an institution,

0:46:08.600 --> 0:46:11.840
<v Speaker 1>you were surrounded by people on all sides that are saying, no,

0:46:12.000 --> 0:46:14.520
<v Speaker 1>what we did was okay, it was okay, it was okay.

0:46:14.800 --> 0:46:17.640
<v Speaker 1>It's very hard to break from that pack to go

0:46:17.760 --> 0:46:22.240
<v Speaker 1>and basically infuriate everybody who works for you and works

0:46:22.280 --> 0:46:24.600
<v Speaker 1>with you and around you. And so I just don't

0:46:24.640 --> 0:46:28.320
<v Speaker 1>think you have the test of leadership there. And remember

0:46:28.440 --> 0:46:32.440
<v Speaker 1>neither Rod Rosenstein nor Christopher Ray were necessarily chosen for

0:46:32.520 --> 0:46:34.960
<v Speaker 1>those reasons. If you look at the rest of the

0:46:35.000 --> 0:46:40.239
<v Speaker 1>Bush Bush the Trump cabinet um, they were chosen as reformers,

0:46:40.280 --> 0:46:42.920
<v Speaker 1>people who were going to come out inside and really

0:46:42.960 --> 0:46:46.479
<v Speaker 1>shake things up. But Rod Rosenstein and Christopher Ray both

0:46:46.520 --> 0:46:50.480
<v Speaker 1>came in under somewhat of a hurried and dress process

0:46:51.040 --> 0:46:54.080
<v Speaker 1>um where they weren't necessarily vetted because they were going

0:46:54.080 --> 0:46:57.240
<v Speaker 1>to clean house they were vetted as a safe choice

0:46:57.280 --> 0:46:59.759
<v Speaker 1>that would be easily confirmable by the Senate in the

0:46:59.760 --> 0:47:03.520
<v Speaker 1>middle of that entire rush that surrounded the whole supposed

0:47:03.600 --> 0:47:07.399
<v Speaker 1>Russia scandal. Kim, just before we let you go here,

0:47:08.080 --> 0:47:11.120
<v Speaker 1>what do you think Mueller's motivation is? I know, I'm

0:47:11.160 --> 0:47:12.919
<v Speaker 1>kind of asking you to look into a man's mind,

0:47:12.960 --> 0:47:15.480
<v Speaker 1>and you know nobody can do that. But do you

0:47:15.520 --> 0:47:17.839
<v Speaker 1>think do you think he's a partisan along the lines

0:47:17.880 --> 0:47:20.040
<v Speaker 1>of some of these others that clearly I mean, anyone

0:47:20.040 --> 0:47:22.360
<v Speaker 1>who tells me that stalker McCabe that they aren't partisans,

0:47:22.400 --> 0:47:24.000
<v Speaker 1>they didn't use their office, I just can't take that

0:47:24.080 --> 0:47:26.920
<v Speaker 1>argument seriously anymore. Do you think Muller just views it

0:47:26.960 --> 0:47:30.440
<v Speaker 1>as he has to almost mechanically go through literally every

0:47:30.760 --> 0:47:33.480
<v Speaker 1>nook and cranny of the investigation, just go through everything

0:47:33.520 --> 0:47:36.520
<v Speaker 1>he can, because that's the only way the American people

0:47:36.520 --> 0:47:38.080
<v Speaker 1>will have faith and assistant or do you think he's

0:47:38.120 --> 0:47:41.080
<v Speaker 1>actually he's anti Trump? I mean, you think this is

0:47:41.120 --> 0:47:42.640
<v Speaker 1>this is a witch hunt. He knows it, and he's

0:47:42.640 --> 0:47:46.800
<v Speaker 1>down for that. I think he's something almost as concerning

0:47:46.800 --> 0:47:51.439
<v Speaker 1>as a partisan. He's a lawyer, and you know, a prosecutor,

0:47:51.520 --> 0:47:53.440
<v Speaker 1>and and look this is one of the problems with

0:47:53.480 --> 0:47:56.840
<v Speaker 1>special counsels is nobody wants to go in and spend

0:47:56.840 --> 0:47:58.680
<v Speaker 1>two years of their life and say I didn't get

0:47:58.719 --> 0:48:01.800
<v Speaker 1>anything in the end, right And and this is always

0:48:01.800 --> 0:48:04.120
<v Speaker 1>the issue with a special counsel, is that they do

0:48:04.239 --> 0:48:06.719
<v Speaker 1>not feel as though they have done their duty or

0:48:06.760 --> 0:48:10.360
<v Speaker 1>their job unless they come out of it having bagged someone,

0:48:10.480 --> 0:48:14.320
<v Speaker 1>someone big, preferably because the field that that was their mission.

0:48:14.880 --> 0:48:17.560
<v Speaker 1>Um And and we've seen that again and again and

0:48:17.600 --> 0:48:21.520
<v Speaker 1>again and so far Mr Mueller has done a pretty

0:48:21.560 --> 0:48:26.200
<v Speaker 1>decent job of unraveling, uh, what clearly was an effort

0:48:26.239 --> 0:48:31.600
<v Speaker 1>by Russians to engage in some small time disruption uh

0:48:31.600 --> 0:48:34.560
<v Speaker 1>and chaos sewing here in the United States. He's trolling

0:48:34.600 --> 0:48:37.959
<v Speaker 1>on social media, et cetera and so on. It's great

0:48:38.000 --> 0:48:40.319
<v Speaker 1>that he did that, but I don't think he necessarily

0:48:40.360 --> 0:48:43.319
<v Speaker 1>ever viewed that really as his job. I think it's

0:48:43.320 --> 0:48:45.839
<v Speaker 1>a noble job that he'd done that, But remember he

0:48:45.920 --> 0:48:49.680
<v Speaker 1>was more specifically tasked with looking into Mr Trump, and

0:48:49.680 --> 0:48:52.400
<v Speaker 1>and having come up completely short on that front in

0:48:52.480 --> 0:48:55.839
<v Speaker 1>terms of collusion and obstruction of justice, it seems he's

0:48:55.880 --> 0:48:58.920
<v Speaker 1>just not willing to let it go. Kims Strass of

0:48:58.920 --> 0:49:01.480
<v Speaker 1>everybody of the Wall Street Journal Editorial Board, the one

0:49:01.520 --> 0:49:02.960
<v Speaker 1>and only Kim, thank you so much for make the

0:49:03.000 --> 0:49:04.919
<v Speaker 1>time always great to have you stopped by the Freedom Hunt.

0:49:07.360 --> 0:49:09.399
<v Speaker 1>When you're hiring, folks, when you're trying to bring new

0:49:09.440 --> 0:49:12.560
<v Speaker 1>people into your organization, you know, it's absolutely essential that

0:49:12.680 --> 0:49:15.360
<v Speaker 1>you can trust that the people that you're taking into

0:49:15.400 --> 0:49:18.239
<v Speaker 1>your fold are who they say they are, that their

0:49:18.320 --> 0:49:21.480
<v Speaker 1>backgrounds match up with all the things they've presented to you,

0:49:21.719 --> 0:49:24.040
<v Speaker 1>and that you know that you're getting somebody who's passed

0:49:24.040 --> 0:49:27.840
<v Speaker 1>all the necessary hurdles and checks. That's why Global Verification

0:49:27.920 --> 0:49:30.600

<v Speaker 1>with startups all the way up to fortune on companies.

0:49:49.320 --> 0:49:53.399
<v Speaker 1>No data or client information is ever offshore, and as

0:49:53.440 --> 0:49:55.280
<v Speaker 1>I said, folks, it's all done here in the States.

0:49:55.320 --> 0:49:59.960
<v Speaker 1>Call eight seven seven six nine, that's eight seven seven,

0:50:02.000 --> 0:50:04.120
<v Speaker 1>or go to my g VN dot com. That's my

0:50:04.280 --> 0:50:05.879
<v Speaker 1>g v N dot com and if you give him

0:50:05.880 --> 0:50:24.080
<v Speaker 1>a call, tell him Buck sent you. I think John

0:50:24.120 --> 0:50:26.720
<v Speaker 1>Brennan is actually a national security risk to the country,

0:50:26.719 --> 0:50:30.000
<v Speaker 1>and we are safer because his UH security clearance has gone.

0:50:30.239 --> 0:50:32.080
<v Speaker 1>And the reason I say that is in two thousand

0:50:32.160 --> 0:50:35.239
<v Speaker 1>and twelve he actually released information to other x C

0:50:35.320 --> 0:50:37.400
<v Speaker 1>i A agents who went on TV and said, oh,

0:50:37.400 --> 0:50:40.040
<v Speaker 1>we've got a double agent in Yemen. Well, at the time,

0:50:40.160 --> 0:50:42.080
<v Speaker 1>there was a double agent Yemen and his life was

0:50:42.120 --> 0:50:43.759
<v Speaker 1>put in his or her I don't know who it was.

0:50:44.040 --> 0:50:46.600
<v Speaker 1>Their life was put at risk because of John Rennan's,

0:50:46.880 --> 0:50:50.200
<v Speaker 1>you know, releasing information that he shouldn't have. John Brennan

0:50:50.320 --> 0:50:55.759
<v Speaker 1>was also involved with illegally looking at democrats computers who

0:50:55.800 --> 0:50:59.959
<v Speaker 1>are investigating CIA torture and then lying about it before

0:51:00.000 --> 0:51:02.440
<v Speaker 1>a committee. So John Brennan should have been fired for

0:51:02.520 --> 0:51:04.919
<v Speaker 1>calls long ago, and he shouldn't be within a mile

0:51:05.000 --> 0:51:08.160
<v Speaker 1>of classified information because he's the national security risk. He

0:51:08.160 --> 0:51:10.279
<v Speaker 1>doesn't know how to keep his mouth shut, and now

0:51:10.640 --> 0:51:12.600
<v Speaker 1>he's someone who's going out there saying the commander in

0:51:12.640 --> 0:51:14.400
<v Speaker 1>chief has treason us. I don't think. I don't know

0:51:14.440 --> 0:51:16.520
<v Speaker 1>how you can be in the chain of information if

0:51:16.520 --> 0:51:18.560
<v Speaker 1>you're saying the commander in chief should be put to

0:51:18.560 --> 0:51:21.200
<v Speaker 1>death for treason. So, yeah, John Brennan's way out there,

0:51:21.239 --> 0:51:25.240
<v Speaker 1>absurdly out there and needs to have no connection to government. Ever, again,

0:51:26.200 --> 0:51:28.960
<v Speaker 1>Rand Paul just making a whole lot of sense, there,

0:51:29.000 --> 0:51:31.480
<v Speaker 1>isn't he? Senator Rand Paul seems to get it. A

0:51:31.520 --> 0:51:34.960
<v Speaker 1>lot of other people don't. Not only is it, look,

0:51:35.080 --> 0:51:37.359
<v Speaker 1>this is an exception, this is an outrage. Folks. You've

0:51:37.360 --> 0:51:40.719
<v Speaker 1>got the former CI directors calling somebody, uh, you know,

0:51:41.160 --> 0:51:43.360
<v Speaker 1>a trader to the country, and just so happens that

0:51:43.400 --> 0:51:46.000
<v Speaker 1>person he's calling a trader is the President of the

0:51:46.080 --> 0:51:49.400
<v Speaker 1>United States. And then he goes through a lot of

0:51:49.400 --> 0:51:54.319
<v Speaker 1>other reasons, particularly the Senate spying issue. Uh, And I

0:51:54.360 --> 0:51:57.400
<v Speaker 1>think folks would say, yeah, this guy should have a clearance?

0:51:58.680 --> 0:52:00.279
<v Speaker 1>Is this really a surprise when you when you think

0:52:00.280 --> 0:52:05.640
<v Speaker 1>about how this guy Brennan was Obama's like chief terrorism

0:52:05.719 --> 0:52:08.080
<v Speaker 1>advisor in the White House for a while. Okay, Obama

0:52:08.160 --> 0:52:11.200
<v Speaker 1>thought Brennan was just the greatest. Do you look at

0:52:11.239 --> 0:52:14.280
<v Speaker 1>the other people that Obama really trusted on national security,

0:52:14.600 --> 0:52:18.560
<v Speaker 1>Susan Rice, Samantha Power. I mean, you go down this

0:52:18.600 --> 0:52:20.520
<v Speaker 1>list of some of the folks that he wanted around him,

0:52:20.560 --> 0:52:25.799
<v Speaker 1>to advise him. Ben Rhodes, John Kerry. I mean, these

0:52:25.800 --> 0:52:29.040
<v Speaker 1>are people that you think I really have an understanding

0:52:29.040 --> 0:52:31.240
<v Speaker 1>of what's going on the this is the A team.

0:52:31.239 --> 0:52:33.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't think so. I don't think so at all.

0:52:33.920 --> 0:52:36.520
<v Speaker 1>You know, and Trump is he's not backing down on this.

0:52:36.600 --> 0:52:38.520
<v Speaker 1>And even though the media is trying to make this

0:52:38.600 --> 0:52:41.160
<v Speaker 1>a huge deal. Oh my gosh, they're making that such

0:52:41.200 --> 0:52:46.280
<v Speaker 1>a big deal. Trump spoke about this earlier today and

0:52:46.320 --> 0:52:47.799
<v Speaker 1>this is what he had to say about A Place seven.

0:52:47.800 --> 0:52:49.560
<v Speaker 1>Oh actually no, this is from even this is from

0:52:49.560 --> 0:52:52.560
<v Speaker 1>over the weekend, Place seventeen. There's no silence. If anything,

0:52:52.600 --> 0:52:55.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm giving up a bigger voice. Many people don't even

0:52:55.680 --> 0:52:57.800
<v Speaker 1>know who he is. And now he has a bigger voice,

0:52:58.040 --> 0:53:00.200
<v Speaker 1>and that's okay with me because I like to get

0:53:00.239 --> 0:53:03.399
<v Speaker 1>on voices like that. I've never respected him. I've never

0:53:03.480 --> 0:53:07.120
<v Speaker 1>had a lot of respect. And Senator Birth said it best.

0:53:07.200 --> 0:53:09.399
<v Speaker 1>If you knew anything, why didn't you report it when

0:53:09.400 --> 0:53:12.800
<v Speaker 1>you were before all of these committees, including their committee,

0:53:13.239 --> 0:53:15.319
<v Speaker 1>so he had a chance to report, he never did.

0:53:15.719 --> 0:53:19.960
<v Speaker 1>This was just came up lately, and that's that. That's

0:53:19.960 --> 0:53:24.680
<v Speaker 1>a disgusting thing. Frankly, this notion of silencing Brennan is

0:53:24.800 --> 0:53:28.640
<v Speaker 1>not to be taken seriously. It's not a real thing, folks.

0:53:28.920 --> 0:53:33.200
<v Speaker 1>It's not anything that we should uh be sitting around

0:53:33.200 --> 0:53:35.480
<v Speaker 1>be worried about. He's not being silent. Brennan is now

0:53:35.719 --> 0:53:38.279
<v Speaker 1>more famous than ever. This is Brennan has become the

0:53:38.320 --> 0:53:41.279
<v Speaker 1>Jim Acosta of the intelligence world. Oh my gosh, they're

0:53:41.400 --> 0:53:45.279
<v Speaker 1>silencing me. Look, his book deal will be bigger, his

0:53:45.400 --> 0:53:49.160
<v Speaker 1>speaking fees are higher. Everything about Brennan's world right now

0:53:49.280 --> 0:53:53.600
<v Speaker 1>is elevated because he's become a hashtag resistance figure. And

0:53:54.120 --> 0:53:56.879
<v Speaker 1>I just think that it's it's you know, we we've

0:53:56.880 --> 0:53:59.000
<v Speaker 1>had it. We've had enough of the lives man that

0:53:59.080 --> 0:54:02.640
<v Speaker 1>this notion is being silence. No one's silencing him. They're

0:54:02.680 --> 0:54:05.759
<v Speaker 1>just not giving him access to the nation's most sensitive information,

0:54:06.600 --> 0:54:10.600
<v Speaker 1>which he doesn't need and we don't need him. To

0:54:10.680 --> 0:54:12.000
<v Speaker 1>give you a sense of the kind of stuff that

0:54:12.000 --> 0:54:14.720
<v Speaker 1>they say, I mean, here, here's here's Clapper on scene

0:54:14.719 --> 0:54:19.759
<v Speaker 1>and play play eight. The value standards, the institutions that

0:54:20.400 --> 0:54:24.319
<v Speaker 1>that I and others spent the major part of our

0:54:24.360 --> 0:54:29.600
<v Speaker 1>professional lives defending and upholding are under assault by our

0:54:29.680 --> 0:54:32.520
<v Speaker 1>very own president. That I really do wonder whether the

0:54:32.600 --> 0:54:38.600
<v Speaker 1>Russians have something on him. I really question question his

0:54:39.600 --> 0:54:44.279
<v Speaker 1>ability to his fitness to be in this office. And

0:54:44.360 --> 0:54:49.080
<v Speaker 1>I also I am beginning to wonder about his his

0:54:49.200 --> 0:54:53.640
<v Speaker 1>motivation for it. What a great case officer Vladimir Putin is.

0:54:54.200 --> 0:54:56.960
<v Speaker 1>He knows how to handle an asset, and that's what

0:54:57.000 --> 0:55:02.439
<v Speaker 1>he's doing with the president handling an asset. Folcus saying

0:55:02.480 --> 0:55:08.680
<v Speaker 1>that the president United States is effectively under foreign government control.

0:55:09.800 --> 0:55:12.200
<v Speaker 1>That's the former Director of National Intelligence. Does he provide

0:55:12.200 --> 0:55:13.799
<v Speaker 1>an evidence for this note? But you see, that's what's

0:55:13.840 --> 0:55:18.160
<v Speaker 1>so easily about the whole thing is that they create

0:55:18.200 --> 0:55:20.640
<v Speaker 1>the assumption that they must have information, they must have

0:55:20.719 --> 0:55:24.799
<v Speaker 1>access to things that you know, we don't have. But

0:55:24.840 --> 0:55:26.840
<v Speaker 1>they're the ones who really know the truth. They're the

0:55:26.880 --> 0:55:31.719
<v Speaker 1>intelligence community chiefs or were also. Don't forget this. This

0:55:31.800 --> 0:55:33.560
<v Speaker 1>is this is Clapper. When I asked a question about

0:55:33.560 --> 0:55:35.640
<v Speaker 1>whether or not there's any mass collection going on play

0:55:35.640 --> 0:55:39.920
<v Speaker 1>Club nine, does the n s A collect any type

0:55:40.040 --> 0:55:44.040
<v Speaker 1>of data at all on millions or hundreds of millions

0:55:44.120 --> 0:55:52.879
<v Speaker 1>of Americans? No, sir, it does not, not wittingly. There

0:55:52.880 --> 0:55:58.640
<v Speaker 1>are cases where they could inadvertently perhaps collect, but not

0:55:58.640 --> 0:56:01.920
<v Speaker 1>not winningly. That's a lie, as we all know that

0:56:02.040 --> 0:56:04.879
<v Speaker 1>was before Congress. What why is that? You know, We've

0:56:04.880 --> 0:56:06.520
<v Speaker 1>got all these people that are saying, oh my gosh,

0:56:06.560 --> 0:56:09.400
<v Speaker 1>you know Trump, you can't speak to he can't speak

0:56:09.400 --> 0:56:11.920
<v Speaker 1>to Mueller because he's gonna get caught in a lie. Well,

0:56:11.960 --> 0:56:14.600
<v Speaker 1>other people lie and it's not a big deal. Other

0:56:14.640 --> 0:56:17.280
<v Speaker 1>people lie and it's apparently no problem in front of Congress,

0:56:17.680 --> 0:56:20.799
<v Speaker 1>which is the same legally speaking as being under you know,

0:56:20.800 --> 0:56:23.920
<v Speaker 1>as being under oath in a court. So why is

0:56:23.960 --> 0:56:29.320
<v Speaker 1>there no issue here? See, folks, they don't have any standards,

0:56:29.360 --> 0:56:31.319
<v Speaker 1>so they try to use our standards against us. And

0:56:31.320 --> 0:56:33.160
<v Speaker 1>in the era of Trump, we've decided to stop letting

0:56:33.200 --> 0:56:35.919
<v Speaker 1>that be the game that they play. We've had enough.

0:56:37.120 --> 0:56:40.520
<v Speaker 1>And these former intelligence chiefs who are out there making

0:56:40.560 --> 0:56:42.440
<v Speaker 1>this case to the the American people are doing so in

0:56:42.440 --> 0:56:45.200
<v Speaker 1>a way that is deeply damaging to the reputation of

0:56:45.239 --> 0:56:48.880
<v Speaker 1>the intelligence community, to our ability. I think to have

0:56:49.200 --> 0:56:52.440
<v Speaker 1>a commander chief who can trust the intelligence chief is

0:56:52.440 --> 0:56:54.000
<v Speaker 1>going forward. And they're doing it all because of Trump

0:56:54.160 --> 0:56:56.839
<v Speaker 1>arrangement syndrome. Because these are not normal criticisms. These are

0:56:56.880 --> 0:57:00.000
<v Speaker 1>not healthy minds that are thinking this stuff about the President.

0:57:01.680 --> 0:57:15.040
<v Speaker 1>We'll be right back he's back with you now, because

0:57:15.080 --> 0:57:17.680
<v Speaker 1>when it comes to the fight for truth, the fuck

0:57:17.880 --> 0:57:28.120
<v Speaker 1>never stops. You said, if Mueller doesn't get this done

0:57:28.680 --> 0:57:31.360
<v Speaker 1>in two or three weeks, basically referring to September one,

0:57:32.280 --> 0:57:35.640
<v Speaker 1>we will just unload on him like a ton of bricks.

0:57:36.040 --> 0:57:38.480
<v Speaker 1>What does that? What does that mean for interfering with

0:57:38.520 --> 0:57:41.280
<v Speaker 1>the election when he had no reason to do that

0:57:41.280 --> 0:57:43.640
<v Speaker 1>because he could have gotten this done earlier. The person

0:57:43.680 --> 0:57:46.200
<v Speaker 1>who's delayed here, But what are you gonna do if

0:57:46.200 --> 0:57:48.960
<v Speaker 1>the president gonna fire him, We're not going to We're

0:57:49.000 --> 0:57:52.960
<v Speaker 1>gonna public We're gonna point out to the public how

0:57:53.000 --> 0:57:56.040
<v Speaker 1>he has acted improperly and he's now violating a Justice

0:57:56.040 --> 0:57:59.680
<v Speaker 1>Department run about not carrying on an investigation. That's not

0:57:59.720 --> 0:58:03.000
<v Speaker 1>the sixty days about issuing indictments and things like that.

0:58:03.160 --> 0:58:06.800
<v Speaker 1>He can go. What's about carrying on It is not.

0:58:07.080 --> 0:58:10.120
<v Speaker 1>It's about carrying on a public investigation. If he has

0:58:10.160 --> 0:58:12.520
<v Speaker 1>to issue a subpoena during that period of time, it

0:58:12.520 --> 0:58:15.360
<v Speaker 1>would be a gross interference in the election when he

0:58:15.400 --> 0:58:18.960
<v Speaker 1>could have issued a six months uh, six months before,

0:58:19.080 --> 0:58:21.680
<v Speaker 1>three months before. And when you tell me that, you

0:58:21.720 --> 0:58:25.480
<v Speaker 1>know he should testify because that for a minute pause,

0:58:25.520 --> 0:58:27.120
<v Speaker 1>actually I want to jump in here for seconuse. We

0:58:27.240 --> 0:58:29.120
<v Speaker 1>we're about to folks were about to get into the

0:58:29.120 --> 0:58:31.960
<v Speaker 1>big exchange from over the weekend where everybody was all upset.

0:58:32.080 --> 0:58:34.880
<v Speaker 1>You know, oh my gosh, look at Rudy said, Now,

0:58:35.040 --> 0:58:37.760
<v Speaker 1>oh the media running all these headlines. Let me just

0:58:37.760 --> 0:58:39.640
<v Speaker 1>know that, you know that you got Rudy and Chuck

0:58:39.680 --> 0:58:42.800
<v Speaker 1>Todd here on whatever show NBC. I never I don't

0:58:42.840 --> 0:58:45.680
<v Speaker 1>watch the Sunday shows because I do my own research

0:58:45.680 --> 0:58:47.360
<v Speaker 1>on Sundays and I don't need some clowns to tell

0:58:47.440 --> 0:58:49.880
<v Speaker 1>me what the political stories are for the week. But

0:58:50.680 --> 0:58:53.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, no, no notice how this whole thing, the

0:58:53.960 --> 0:58:56.280
<v Speaker 1>Mueller probe and all this this got started because of

0:58:56.280 --> 0:58:59.440
<v Speaker 1>election interference. That's what they said, right, that's what and

0:58:59.440 --> 0:59:02.040
<v Speaker 1>then interference led to the obstruction and then all this

0:59:02.080 --> 0:59:05.400
<v Speaker 1>other stuff. But what what we see here is that

0:59:05.760 --> 0:59:10.440
<v Speaker 1>the same people who were so worried about election interference

0:59:10.880 --> 0:59:15.240
<v Speaker 1>are now the ones who are justifying election interference. Right,

0:59:15.360 --> 0:59:17.720
<v Speaker 1>the same people who are saying, oh my gosh, the Russians,

0:59:17.760 --> 0:59:21.240
<v Speaker 1>all the Russians are getting going our stuff now when

0:59:21.560 --> 0:59:24.320
<v Speaker 1>Mueller may be continuing this probe in a way that's

0:59:24.360 --> 0:59:27.000
<v Speaker 1>clearly going to affect the mindset of voters. That's clearly

0:59:27.000 --> 0:59:30.640
<v Speaker 1>going to affect people as they're going into the polls.

0:59:30.680 --> 0:59:33.200
<v Speaker 1>If you're not somebody who understands the full scope of

0:59:33.200 --> 0:59:34.960
<v Speaker 1>what's going on here, if you if you pay attention

0:59:35.000 --> 0:59:37.880
<v Speaker 1>to the media, if you trust the mainstream media for

0:59:38.000 --> 0:59:40.920
<v Speaker 1>your facts on what's gone on here, you're gonna think,

0:59:40.920 --> 0:59:43.040
<v Speaker 1>oh my gosh, the president nited states still under this

0:59:43.080 --> 0:59:48.400
<v Speaker 1>active investigation. This is so terrible, And maybe I should

0:59:49.200 --> 0:59:52.640
<v Speaker 1>vote for the party that is not the president's party. Right, No,

0:59:52.920 --> 0:59:54.640
<v Speaker 1>Trump is not in the ballot. But as everyone knows,

0:59:54.640 --> 0:59:56.840
<v Speaker 1>in a mid term like this, of course the president

0:59:56.880 --> 1:00:00.040
<v Speaker 1>and his party together are on the ballot. Everybody knows that.

1:00:00.120 --> 1:00:05.360
<v Speaker 1>Everybody understands that. So but but the election interference narrative

1:00:05.360 --> 1:00:07.760
<v Speaker 1>has now got us to a point where people are

1:00:07.800 --> 1:00:11.040
<v Speaker 1>pushing for election interference who were so worried about election

1:00:11.080 --> 1:00:13.640
<v Speaker 1>interference before. This is the great irony of the situation.

1:00:14.000 --> 1:00:16.360
<v Speaker 1>But then we get into this other, this other component

1:00:16.400 --> 1:00:20.160
<v Speaker 1>here about truth is truth playclip twelve. And when you

1:00:20.240 --> 1:00:22.840
<v Speaker 1>tell me that you know he should testify because he's

1:00:22.840 --> 1:00:24.840
<v Speaker 1>going to tell the truth and he shouldn't worry. Well,

1:00:24.840 --> 1:00:27.560
<v Speaker 1>that's so silly, because it's somebody's version of the truth,

1:00:27.680 --> 1:00:31.640
<v Speaker 1>not the truth. He didn't have a conversation of this truth.

1:00:31.840 --> 1:00:33.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't mean to go like I know it isn't truth.

1:00:34.040 --> 1:00:37.280
<v Speaker 1>Truth isn't truth. The President of United States says, I

1:00:37.360 --> 1:00:40.240
<v Speaker 1>didn't Truth is the truth? Mr merrithn you realize what

1:00:40.760 --> 1:00:44.960
<v Speaker 1>I No, No, don't, don't don't do that. Don't do

1:00:45.080 --> 1:00:48.520
<v Speaker 1>this to me, don't do truth. Donald Trump. Donald Trump

1:00:48.560 --> 1:00:52.440
<v Speaker 1>says I didn't talk about Flynn with Comey. Comey says,

1:00:52.760 --> 1:00:54.600
<v Speaker 1>you didn't talk about it. So tell me what the

1:00:54.640 --> 1:00:56.960
<v Speaker 1>truth is, Tom McCain, if you have such a genius,

1:00:58.360 --> 1:01:01.400
<v Speaker 1>you know that. That's exactly the point that that they

1:01:01.600 --> 1:01:03.440
<v Speaker 1>they see that they would seize on this and make

1:01:03.480 --> 1:01:08.040
<v Speaker 1>a meme of it, and they did, right. Truth isn't truth? Yeah,

1:01:08.120 --> 1:01:10.600
<v Speaker 1>well that that's a funny phrase now because they're all

1:01:10.600 --> 1:01:12.520
<v Speaker 1>saying Trump lies so much and there's all these liars

1:01:12.520 --> 1:01:17.080
<v Speaker 1>around and everything else. Uh. Meanwhile, what he's saying is

1:01:17.080 --> 1:01:20.240
<v Speaker 1>something that liberals pretend to forget now because it's convenient

1:01:20.280 --> 1:01:22.880
<v Speaker 1>for them. And it's the following that that you could

1:01:22.880 --> 1:01:26.520
<v Speaker 1>tell the truth and still go to prison, or you

1:01:26.520 --> 1:01:30.400
<v Speaker 1>could tell the truth and still be uh treated as

1:01:30.400 --> 1:01:33.000
<v Speaker 1>a liar in the courts or or by the FBI.

1:01:33.640 --> 1:01:37.120
<v Speaker 1>This should not be surprising to liberals. Liberals are supposed

1:01:37.120 --> 1:01:39.280
<v Speaker 1>to be the ones, folks they're supposed to be, I

1:01:39.320 --> 1:01:41.000
<v Speaker 1>know they're not. They're supposed to be the ones who

1:01:41.040 --> 1:01:47.680
<v Speaker 1>are worried about, oh, false arrest, about implicit racial bias

1:01:47.720 --> 1:01:51.800
<v Speaker 1>and arrest. Liberals are always telling us that police are unjust,

1:01:52.160 --> 1:01:55.360
<v Speaker 1>that the justice system makes mistakes, that the justice system

1:01:55.480 --> 1:01:58.840
<v Speaker 1>is biased, and and they're always so worried about procedure

1:01:58.880 --> 1:02:01.840
<v Speaker 1>to protect defendants. But we see is that's really only

1:02:01.880 --> 1:02:04.680
<v Speaker 1>applicable for liberals when they think the defendant is a

1:02:04.720 --> 1:02:08.600
<v Speaker 1>member of a protected class. That's really what they're worried about.

1:02:08.680 --> 1:02:12.160
<v Speaker 1>Identity politics as it intersect with the intersects with the

1:02:12.200 --> 1:02:15.800
<v Speaker 1>justice system. That's what really matters to them. The principle

1:02:16.080 --> 1:02:20.800
<v Speaker 1>of a far too powerful uh executive branch, or a

1:02:20.800 --> 1:02:25.120
<v Speaker 1>far too powerful prosecutorial wing of the executive government that

1:02:25.160 --> 1:02:28.440
<v Speaker 1>doesn't really seem to bother them. I'm sorry. I refused

1:02:28.480 --> 1:02:32.680
<v Speaker 1>to believe that General Flynn, who was the Defense Intelligence

1:02:32.720 --> 1:02:36.840
<v Speaker 1>Agency director and a three star general. Okay, I refused

1:02:36.880 --> 1:02:40.000
<v Speaker 1>to believe that he just lied about a meeting with

1:02:40.040 --> 1:02:42.280
<v Speaker 1>some FBI agents for no reason for and it was

1:02:42.320 --> 1:02:44.920
<v Speaker 1>no big deal because he didn't know any better, or

1:02:44.920 --> 1:02:47.280
<v Speaker 1>because he just felt like it. No, they set him up,

1:02:47.920 --> 1:02:50.040
<v Speaker 1>meaning that he thought he was just having an off

1:02:50.040 --> 1:02:52.760
<v Speaker 1>the cuff conversation and said something that they could then

1:02:52.880 --> 1:02:57.720
<v Speaker 1>later on manufacture as factually inaccurate. There's a reason why

1:02:57.760 --> 1:03:00.280
<v Speaker 1>people don't want to have to sit in a federal

1:03:00.320 --> 1:03:02.320
<v Speaker 1>trial and defend themselves that there's a reason why they

1:03:02.320 --> 1:03:04.680
<v Speaker 1>don't want to have these interactions with the government. Liberals

1:03:04.800 --> 1:03:08.520
<v Speaker 1>used to know that stuff, but they have very conveniently

1:03:08.560 --> 1:03:11.200
<v Speaker 1>forgotten it now, and so that's why they run with

1:03:11.200 --> 1:03:13.240
<v Speaker 1>this whole truth isn't truth? Look what if he's that

1:03:13.360 --> 1:03:16.800
<v Speaker 1>truth isn't truth? Truth, There isn't truth. Well, yes, when

1:03:16.880 --> 1:03:20.240
<v Speaker 1>when you have a jury that's going to always give

1:03:20.400 --> 1:03:22.320
<v Speaker 1>much more weight to what the what the government says,

1:03:22.400 --> 1:03:25.520
<v Speaker 1>especially the federal government. It's unfortunate, but it's true in

1:03:25.560 --> 1:03:28.280
<v Speaker 1>these matters when you have a jury that's going to

1:03:28.320 --> 1:03:30.360
<v Speaker 1>hear from the government one thing and then you're going

1:03:30.400 --> 1:03:33.040
<v Speaker 1>to present it with another. You know, when you have

1:03:34.240 --> 1:03:38.840
<v Speaker 1>a Trump administration that has been just beset with media

1:03:39.000 --> 1:03:42.400
<v Speaker 1>stories of all kinds about how they're lying and they're

1:03:42.440 --> 1:03:45.520
<v Speaker 1>so bad and they're so terrible, then yeah, you could

1:03:45.520 --> 1:03:48.040
<v Speaker 1>tell the truth if you're the president of the United

1:03:48.080 --> 1:03:52.320
<v Speaker 1>States and the d o J could jam you up anyway,

1:03:52.400 --> 1:03:55.800
<v Speaker 1>So you know that this isn't really that complicated, This

1:03:55.880 --> 1:03:59.640
<v Speaker 1>isn't really that that that that that insane. But but

1:03:59.680 --> 1:04:02.080
<v Speaker 1>they ran with the story because it's useful to them,

1:04:02.080 --> 1:04:06.600
<v Speaker 1>folks that this is the new The new narrative under

1:04:06.600 --> 1:04:09.440
<v Speaker 1>the Trump administration at least, is that Republicans don't care

1:04:09.440 --> 1:04:11.440
<v Speaker 1>at all about facts and don't care at all about truth,

1:04:12.160 --> 1:04:15.360
<v Speaker 1>when what's actually going on is that we care about

1:04:15.360 --> 1:04:18.320
<v Speaker 1>what matters, care about how the country is doing, what

1:04:18.400 --> 1:04:21.520
<v Speaker 1>the policies are, and we understand the context of this fight.

1:04:21.560 --> 1:04:23.480
<v Speaker 1>You know, I just feel like we've all gotten tired

1:04:23.520 --> 1:04:27.160
<v Speaker 1>after a while of one of the left favorite games,

1:04:27.160 --> 1:04:31.880
<v Speaker 1>which is always holding us to the the holding us

1:04:31.960 --> 1:04:34.560
<v Speaker 1>up to live by rules and we have to be

1:04:34.600 --> 1:04:39.000
<v Speaker 1>perfect or else. They exaggerate every transgression, every mishap, right

1:04:39.000 --> 1:04:42.080
<v Speaker 1>when a conservative messes up, they magnify at times. Town

1:04:42.120 --> 1:04:44.520
<v Speaker 1>when a conservative makes a mistake, it's the end of

1:04:44.520 --> 1:04:47.120
<v Speaker 1>the world. And with their side, they're always ignoring it,

1:04:47.160 --> 1:04:49.040
<v Speaker 1>they don't cover it, or they soft pedal it or

1:04:49.080 --> 1:04:51.840
<v Speaker 1>they and we're all sick of it. We won't play

1:04:51.880 --> 1:04:55.120
<v Speaker 1>their game anymore. And that's why they're freaking out so much.

1:04:56.160 --> 1:04:58.600
<v Speaker 1>That's why they can't bring themselves they just have a

1:04:58.640 --> 1:05:01.240
<v Speaker 1>normal conversation about any this. Now, it's just what Trump

1:05:01.360 --> 1:05:07.040
<v Speaker 1>derangement syndrome is a true psychological pandemic, and why they

1:05:07.040 --> 1:05:09.640
<v Speaker 1>would pick out of this thing truth isn't truth. I

1:05:09.680 --> 1:05:11.320
<v Speaker 1>know it's a catchy headline. I know a lot of

1:05:11.320 --> 1:05:13.200
<v Speaker 1>different media outlets went with it, but when you listen

1:05:13.240 --> 1:05:16.280
<v Speaker 1>to the context, it's clear what Ulani was saying, which is, yeah,

1:05:16.280 --> 1:05:18.560
<v Speaker 1>that's right. Mueller is on a witch hunt and he

1:05:18.680 --> 1:05:21.040
<v Speaker 1>is trying to take down the President of the United States,

1:05:21.040 --> 1:05:40.120
<v Speaker 1>even if he tells the truth. You have been more

1:05:40.120 --> 1:05:43.760
<v Speaker 1>outspoken than really any former official. Uh. And in fact,

1:05:43.760 --> 1:05:47.000
<v Speaker 1>that maybe why many Republican legislatures feel comfortable taking the

1:05:47.040 --> 1:05:50.760
<v Speaker 1>president's side. They believe your comments have been over the top.

1:05:50.960 --> 1:05:54.760
<v Speaker 1>Do you regret essentially accusing the president of treason? Do

1:05:54.760 --> 1:05:56.880
<v Speaker 1>you do you regret some of the things you have said.

1:05:58.800 --> 1:06:01.080
<v Speaker 1>I called his behavior trees this, which is to betray

1:06:01.160 --> 1:06:03.120
<v Speaker 1>one's trust and to aid and at the enemy. And

1:06:03.160 --> 1:06:06.440
<v Speaker 1>I stand very much by that claim, you are the

1:06:06.480 --> 1:06:09.800
<v Speaker 1>former CIA director accusing the sitting president United States. It's

1:06:09.840 --> 1:06:12.040
<v Speaker 1>not a private citizen. A lot of people here, the

1:06:12.080 --> 1:06:15.280
<v Speaker 1>former CIA director accusing the sitting president United States of treason.

1:06:16.120 --> 1:06:20.400
<v Speaker 1>That's that's monument that's a monumental accusation. It is indeed

1:06:20.520 --> 1:06:23.760
<v Speaker 1>a monumental accusation. And I gotta say I give Chuck

1:06:23.840 --> 1:06:28.560
<v Speaker 1>Todd some credit for at least being willing to say that.

1:06:28.600 --> 1:06:31.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean, this is not normal stuff, folks, And I

1:06:31.120 --> 1:06:34.640
<v Speaker 1>think that's where a lot of us have finally just

1:06:34.840 --> 1:06:38.400
<v Speaker 1>departed from this crazy game that you know, the the

1:06:38.440 --> 1:06:41.200
<v Speaker 1>anti trumpers want to play. When you have the former

1:06:41.320 --> 1:06:48.000
<v Speaker 1>CIA director out there, uh, claiming that the president of

1:06:48.040 --> 1:06:51.600
<v Speaker 1>the United States, the sitting president United States, committed treason,

1:06:52.640 --> 1:06:55.960
<v Speaker 1>I mean, that has really negative ramifications. I think it's

1:06:56.000 --> 1:06:59.600
<v Speaker 1>so interesting that you'll hear all the time from these

1:06:59.600 --> 1:07:03.840
<v Speaker 1>different journalists and the anti trumpers that Trump is undermining institutions.

1:07:04.240 --> 1:07:08.120
<v Speaker 1>When you have the spy chief of the last administration

1:07:08.200 --> 1:07:11.040
<v Speaker 1>that was a Democrat administration, the opposition to the current

1:07:11.080 --> 1:07:15.080
<v Speaker 1>one saying that the president is a trader, Uh, that

1:07:15.280 --> 1:07:19.640
<v Speaker 1>is incredibly undermining. But this this interview continues on and

1:07:19.640 --> 1:07:22.360
<v Speaker 1>and Brennan, who I think has had some kind of

1:07:22.360 --> 1:07:25.680
<v Speaker 1>break with reality. I mean, there's something wrong with him.

1:07:26.080 --> 1:07:30.800
<v Speaker 1>Brennan goes into some more detail about his position. Well,

1:07:30.840 --> 1:07:33.200
<v Speaker 1>I think these are abnormal times, and I think a

1:07:33.200 --> 1:07:35.720
<v Speaker 1>lot of people have spoken out against what Mr Trump

1:07:35.720 --> 1:07:38.840
<v Speaker 1>has done. And maybe it's my my warning training as

1:07:38.840 --> 1:07:41.760
<v Speaker 1>an intelligence professional, I have seen the lights blinking red

1:07:41.800 --> 1:07:44.560
<v Speaker 1>in terms of what Mr Trump has done and is doing,

1:07:44.680 --> 1:07:47.200
<v Speaker 1>and is bringing this country down on the global stage,

1:07:47.520 --> 1:07:51.200
<v Speaker 1>and he's fueling and feeding divisiveness within our country. He

1:07:51.600 --> 1:07:54.880
<v Speaker 1>continually lies to the American people and the types of

1:07:54.880 --> 1:07:57.160
<v Speaker 1>things that he's doing. I think I need to speak out,

1:07:57.720 --> 1:08:00.560
<v Speaker 1>and so I've been speaking out rather forcefully because I

1:08:00.560 --> 1:08:03.400
<v Speaker 1>believe it's important to do so. I don't believe I'm

1:08:03.400 --> 1:08:05.760
<v Speaker 1>being political at all. I'm not a Republican, I'm not

1:08:05.800 --> 1:08:10.440
<v Speaker 1>a Democrat. Yes, he's not being political. He's just being crazy.

1:08:10.840 --> 1:08:13.720
<v Speaker 1>That's what the former CIA director is doing. He is

1:08:13.760 --> 1:08:18.519
<v Speaker 1>acting like a person who has real problems in real trouble. Look, folks,

1:08:18.680 --> 1:08:21.759
<v Speaker 1>I wrote about this on the Hill dot Com today.

1:08:21.920 --> 1:08:26.400
<v Speaker 1>Of piece actually created quite a spirited discussion in the comments,

1:08:26.520 --> 1:08:29.040
<v Speaker 1>and I got pushed back, and people are mad at

1:08:29.040 --> 1:08:32.000
<v Speaker 1>me because there's always this assumption I think that because

1:08:32.080 --> 1:08:36.080
<v Speaker 1>I worked for the CIA, that I must have some

1:08:36.360 --> 1:08:42.080
<v Speaker 1>affinity for the intelligence agencies and and for federal bureaucracy.

1:08:42.120 --> 1:08:44.719
<v Speaker 1>And I have to try to tell people no, because

1:08:44.760 --> 1:08:48.240
<v Speaker 1>I actually understand these places. I have very different opinions

1:08:48.280 --> 1:08:52.639
<v Speaker 1>than most journalists do. I am not an institutionalist when

1:08:52.640 --> 1:08:56.040
<v Speaker 1>it comes to these these organizations. I view them as

1:08:56.320 --> 1:08:59.360
<v Speaker 1>sometimes doing good stuff, sometimes doing bad stuff. Sometimes they

1:08:59.400 --> 1:09:03.320
<v Speaker 1>need correction, and sometimes they need praise. But Brennan, I

1:09:03.360 --> 1:09:06.320
<v Speaker 1>gotta tell you, Brennan is someone who and please do,

1:09:06.400 --> 1:09:08.200
<v Speaker 1>by the way, go read the article. It's on Facebook

1:09:08.240 --> 1:09:10.920
<v Speaker 1>dot com, slash buck Sexton or the Hill dot com.

1:09:11.760 --> 1:09:13.479
<v Speaker 1>Appreciate when all of you get a chance to read

1:09:13.520 --> 1:09:16.200
<v Speaker 1>it went up today. And I mean, I just say, look,

1:09:16.200 --> 1:09:18.840
<v Speaker 1>the spy chiefs are causing long term damage to the

1:09:18.880 --> 1:09:22.120
<v Speaker 1>spy agencies, the former spy chiefs, because they're gonna make

1:09:22.120 --> 1:09:25.599
<v Speaker 1>it so that any incoming administration is going to think,

1:09:25.880 --> 1:09:28.360
<v Speaker 1>who appointed that that CI director? Do I need to

1:09:28.360 --> 1:09:31.320
<v Speaker 1>get rid of him right away? Yes? Sometimes people, you know,

1:09:31.360 --> 1:09:33.880
<v Speaker 1>CI directors and others in the intel community come and

1:09:33.920 --> 1:09:37.400
<v Speaker 1>go pretty quickly, but they don't always. And it's also

1:09:37.600 --> 1:09:40.840
<v Speaker 1>a question of some of the other UH senior level folks.

1:09:40.840 --> 1:09:42.439
<v Speaker 1>You know, if you worked in the White House and

1:09:42.479 --> 1:09:45.400
<v Speaker 1>then you became, you know, a top person at the

1:09:45.520 --> 1:09:47.599
<v Speaker 1>n s A or top person at the State Department

1:09:47.680 --> 1:09:50.880
<v Speaker 1>or wherever, does the next administration have to worry about you.

1:09:50.960 --> 1:09:54.880
<v Speaker 1>I think the answer now is obviously yes. But I

1:09:54.920 --> 1:09:57.519
<v Speaker 1>want to dig into Brennan for a moment here, because

1:09:57.640 --> 1:10:00.680
<v Speaker 1>I think that everyone I know who has worked at them,

1:10:00.720 --> 1:10:02.200
<v Speaker 1>and there are a lot of people that I know

1:10:02.280 --> 1:10:06.160
<v Speaker 1>who have spent time with Brennan who know him personally,

1:10:06.240 --> 1:10:09.920
<v Speaker 1>who I believe it or not, generally say very good

1:10:09.920 --> 1:10:12.320
<v Speaker 1>things about him as a as a as a guy,

1:10:12.439 --> 1:10:14.360
<v Speaker 1>as as somebody that they would be around it. They

1:10:14.360 --> 1:10:17.400
<v Speaker 1>seem to like him. Um, So I have a hard

1:10:17.439 --> 1:10:21.920
<v Speaker 1>time believing that he's just entirely that he's had some

1:10:22.000 --> 1:10:24.320
<v Speaker 1>kind of a breakdown. I mean, that's that's possible, but

1:10:24.360 --> 1:10:27.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't see that as the most likely outcome here.

1:10:28.120 --> 1:10:30.720
<v Speaker 1>I think a better guess of what's going on is

1:10:30.760 --> 1:10:34.880
<v Speaker 1>that Brennan realizes that it's probably only a matter of

1:10:34.920 --> 1:10:38.479
<v Speaker 1>time before the full extent of what he did to

1:10:38.600 --> 1:10:43.640
<v Speaker 1>try and create this Russia collusion trapped for the administration

1:10:43.760 --> 1:10:46.880
<v Speaker 1>or try to. I mean see that the problem is, folks,

1:10:47.120 --> 1:10:50.879
<v Speaker 1>it's almost like a a police officer who who's so certain,

1:10:51.320 --> 1:10:54.400
<v Speaker 1>so certain that a a a minister, a person is

1:10:54.400 --> 1:10:58.200
<v Speaker 1>guilty that they plant evidence. And what happens to a

1:10:58.280 --> 1:11:00.840
<v Speaker 1>cop who plants evidence because they're so sure that this

1:11:00.920 --> 1:11:02.639
<v Speaker 1>is the guilty party and then all of a sudden

1:11:02.840 --> 1:11:06.240
<v Speaker 1>it starts to look like they're not the guilty party. Well,

1:11:06.280 --> 1:11:09.400
<v Speaker 1>for a lot of unethical people out there, they'd say, well,

1:11:09.920 --> 1:11:11.880
<v Speaker 1>it's just a matter of collecting more evidence, but they

1:11:11.920 --> 1:11:14.800
<v Speaker 1>would double down on the necessity of that right. They

1:11:14.880 --> 1:11:17.840
<v Speaker 1>want to believe that their actions they were just trying

1:11:17.840 --> 1:11:19.840
<v Speaker 1>to get the bad guy, and they know they know

1:11:19.960 --> 1:11:22.080
<v Speaker 1>that person is bad. They believe in their heart that

1:11:22.120 --> 1:11:26.360
<v Speaker 1>person is bad. And that's I think where Brennan is.

1:11:26.400 --> 1:11:29.800
<v Speaker 1>I believe that he was worried that Trump was a

1:11:29.800 --> 1:11:31.960
<v Speaker 1>a danger, a threat to the country. I think that

1:11:32.000 --> 1:11:36.720
<v Speaker 1>he really was of that mindset. And now that the

1:11:36.760 --> 1:11:38.560
<v Speaker 1>information is actually coming out, now that we're getting a

1:11:38.640 --> 1:11:42.320
<v Speaker 1>better sense of what really happened, it's becoming clear that

1:11:42.800 --> 1:11:46.479
<v Speaker 1>he jumped the gun. It's becoming clear that he was

1:11:46.600 --> 1:11:50.400
<v Speaker 1>not in fact uh on, he had not unearthed or

1:11:50.439 --> 1:11:54.479
<v Speaker 1>helped unearth this massive conspiracy with the Trump campaign to

1:11:54.520 --> 1:11:59.480
<v Speaker 1>throw an election. No, in fact, what what happened is UH,

1:12:00.120 --> 1:12:03.720
<v Speaker 1>a bunch of Russian Facebook trolls and some other uncorrelated

1:12:03.760 --> 1:12:06.960
<v Speaker 1>events came together at a time when the Trump administration

1:12:07.040 --> 1:12:11.720
<v Speaker 1>was beating all of the political wisdom, destroying the consensus opinions,

1:12:13.479 --> 1:12:16.439
<v Speaker 1>and the establishment was in an utter panic and they

1:12:16.479 --> 1:12:19.000
<v Speaker 1>were looking for a scapegoat, and this became the perfect

1:12:19.080 --> 1:12:23.920
<v Speaker 1>scape scapegoat that Russia had helped Trump win. But Brennan

1:12:24.040 --> 1:12:26.240
<v Speaker 1>is not in He's not in normal terms here, nor

1:12:26.360 --> 1:12:29.920
<v Speaker 1>are Clapper and Comey and Hayden. I think I'm gonna

1:12:29.920 --> 1:12:33.280
<v Speaker 1>get a chance to sit down with former CI director

1:12:33.360 --> 1:12:36.160
<v Speaker 1>Michael He's also former n Essay director Michael Hayden later

1:12:36.160 --> 1:12:39.600
<v Speaker 1>this week here in d C. Again the benefits of

1:12:39.640 --> 1:12:41.559
<v Speaker 1>being a swamp creature, as I get to actually interview

1:12:41.600 --> 1:12:44.519
<v Speaker 1>all these people now and and run sources all over

1:12:44.520 --> 1:12:45.720
<v Speaker 1>the city, and I get to learn a lot of

1:12:45.760 --> 1:12:48.760
<v Speaker 1>interesting stuff which I then can tell you. But I

1:12:48.800 --> 1:12:50.720
<v Speaker 1>worked for Mike, as I've told you before, and I

1:12:50.720 --> 1:12:53.400
<v Speaker 1>thought Mike was pretty squared away, and I really want

1:12:53.400 --> 1:12:55.960
<v Speaker 1>to ask him what has happened here? You know, you

1:12:56.200 --> 1:12:58.519
<v Speaker 1>heard it in Brennan's thing about you know, I had

1:12:58.520 --> 1:13:01.760
<v Speaker 1>warning training and I'm a warning training intelligence officer. Well,

1:13:01.800 --> 1:13:04.040
<v Speaker 1>i had intelligence officer training two. And at this point,

1:13:04.320 --> 1:13:07.320
<v Speaker 1>we would we would think that this person, if Brennan

1:13:07.360 --> 1:13:10.120
<v Speaker 1>were a source, I would think he was making stuff up.

1:13:10.680 --> 1:13:13.920
<v Speaker 1>I would think that he was fabricating information to tell

1:13:13.960 --> 1:13:16.439
<v Speaker 1>the American public what they what he thought they wanted

1:13:16.439 --> 1:13:20.479
<v Speaker 1>to hear um. And I can't help but feel like

1:13:20.520 --> 1:13:22.320
<v Speaker 1>there's some of these other people that are involved with

1:13:22.360 --> 1:13:25.679
<v Speaker 1>Brennan that are all catching his back right now. They're saying, oh,

1:13:25.760 --> 1:13:29.160
<v Speaker 1>how dare you threatened to take Brennan's clearance? Well, where

1:13:29.160 --> 1:13:32.920
<v Speaker 1>are they when Brennan is yelling about how the president

1:13:33.000 --> 1:13:35.280
<v Speaker 1>United States is a trader? Where are they on that?

1:13:35.960 --> 1:13:38.880
<v Speaker 1>Why don't we get to hear more about that? You know,

1:13:38.880 --> 1:13:41.000
<v Speaker 1>if if they're so concerned about the future and fate

1:13:41.040 --> 1:13:43.439
<v Speaker 1>of the country, you would think that they might want

1:13:43.439 --> 1:13:45.960
<v Speaker 1>to tell tell for the former CI director to chill

1:13:46.000 --> 1:13:49.200
<v Speaker 1>out just a little bit. Clapper over the weekend said

1:13:49.240 --> 1:13:55.720
<v Speaker 1>something like Brennan's He muttered something because Clapper likes to

1:13:55.800 --> 1:14:00.800
<v Speaker 1>mutter about how Brennan needs to Yeah, probably tone it down.

1:14:00.840 --> 1:14:03.120
<v Speaker 1>A little bit, but he needs tone it down a lot, folks.

1:14:03.880 --> 1:14:05.479
<v Speaker 1>He needs to tone it down a whole heck of

1:14:05.520 --> 1:14:08.240
<v Speaker 1>a lot. And what we're seeing is there's a desperation here,

1:14:08.840 --> 1:14:13.280
<v Speaker 1>a desperation to justify after the fact actions that were

1:14:13.320 --> 1:14:17.160
<v Speaker 1>taking uh in a in a frenzy of anxiety at

1:14:17.160 --> 1:14:19.720
<v Speaker 1>the top level of the Obama administration. That's right, it

1:14:19.720 --> 1:14:22.559
<v Speaker 1>was under Obama's watch. These are executive branch officials. Do

1:14:22.640 --> 1:14:26.280
<v Speaker 1>not forget that. And now they're using the bully pulpit.

1:14:26.320 --> 1:14:29.640
<v Speaker 1>Now they're using you know, TV appearances in books to

1:14:29.720 --> 1:14:31.800
<v Speaker 1>try and create a narrative where they won't look like

1:14:31.840 --> 1:14:33.439
<v Speaker 1>the villains in the end. But I have to tell you,

1:14:33.479 --> 1:14:34.920
<v Speaker 1>I think that Brennan and all the rest of the

1:14:34.920 --> 1:14:38.719
<v Speaker 1>deep Staters are going to look like the villains. Buck

1:14:38.800 --> 1:14:44.520
<v Speaker 1>Sexton remission, decoding the news and disseminating information with actionable intelligence,

1:14:46.680 --> 1:14:50.479
<v Speaker 1>Make no mistake, American, You're a great American again. This

1:14:50.960 --> 1:15:07.120
<v Speaker 1>is the buck Sexton shows set No how the President

1:15:07.120 --> 1:15:09.080
<v Speaker 1>continues to do this, And I hope he adds I'm

1:15:09.120 --> 1:15:11.320
<v Speaker 1>a Rosa to the list because if she has a clearance,

1:15:11.560 --> 1:15:14.799
<v Speaker 1>she too, because of her actions, should have it revoked.

1:15:15.040 --> 1:15:16.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if I put m Rossa in the

1:15:16.320 --> 1:15:18.800
<v Speaker 1>same category of people signed those letters but film. But

1:15:19.040 --> 1:15:24.640
<v Speaker 1>I imagine you want to react profitable Paris. When I

1:15:24.760 --> 1:15:28.080
<v Speaker 1>am requested to sit on an advisory board, let me

1:15:28.160 --> 1:15:30.840
<v Speaker 1>ask you one question, how much do you think I'm

1:15:30.840 --> 1:15:33.200
<v Speaker 1>paid to do that? At the requestion to the US government,

1:15:33.320 --> 1:15:35.880
<v Speaker 1>give me one answer and you got ten seconds? How

1:15:36.000 --> 1:15:39.280
<v Speaker 1>much I'll give I'll ask you a question, how much

1:15:39.280 --> 1:15:41.840
<v Speaker 1>are you paid for your answer? The question acting gig

1:15:42.400 --> 1:15:44.920
<v Speaker 1>for for being a for They have no contract with

1:15:44.960 --> 1:15:47.040
<v Speaker 1>the US government that paid more. I'm not talking hearing.

1:15:47.120 --> 1:15:53.000
<v Speaker 1>This is the thing I'm not talking about that I'm

1:15:53.000 --> 1:15:58.840
<v Speaker 1>not talking about. There you go CNN everyone, that's how

1:15:58.880 --> 1:16:02.519
<v Speaker 1>things go over there, the the the global leader in

1:16:02.720 --> 1:16:06.880
<v Speaker 1>cable news that there he had a former former c

1:16:07.080 --> 1:16:13.160
<v Speaker 1>I a senior executive, Phil Mud, and a and and

1:16:13.280 --> 1:16:16.160
<v Speaker 1>Paris Denard, whom I think he's a Trump supporter who

1:16:16.160 --> 1:16:18.280
<v Speaker 1>goes on CNN, one of the very very few. And

1:16:18.280 --> 1:16:20.679
<v Speaker 1>they're arguing over the security clearance thing. And you'll notice

1:16:20.720 --> 1:16:25.639
<v Speaker 1>that that Phil Mud sounds really upset over this and

1:16:25.760 --> 1:16:28.120
<v Speaker 1>made this very personal. And I can tell you know

1:16:28.160 --> 1:16:31.799
<v Speaker 1>because because the news today is that there are more

1:16:31.800 --> 1:16:36.720
<v Speaker 1>people who are joining Brennan's clearance crusade here right, there's

1:16:36.720 --> 1:16:38.880
<v Speaker 1>there's even a greater number, I think a hundred and

1:16:38.920 --> 1:16:42.040
<v Speaker 1>sixty five people. And Mike Hayden has added his name

1:16:42.080 --> 1:16:45.280
<v Speaker 1>to the list. And you know, a lot of people,

1:16:45.320 --> 1:16:47.559
<v Speaker 1>a lot of normal Americans look at this instead of themselves.

1:16:47.720 --> 1:16:50.479
<v Speaker 1>Hold on a second, why am I supposed to care

1:16:50.600 --> 1:16:53.840
<v Speaker 1>about Brennan losing his clearance? Brennan no longer works for

1:16:53.840 --> 1:16:56.000
<v Speaker 1>the government. I mean, that's one part of this that

1:16:56.000 --> 1:16:58.040
<v Speaker 1>no one seems willing to give me a straight answer them,

1:16:58.040 --> 1:17:01.920
<v Speaker 1>which is why has this become the thing that the

1:17:02.040 --> 1:17:05.360
<v Speaker 1>national security establishment is rallying around. You have, on the

1:17:05.400 --> 1:17:09.160
<v Speaker 1>one hand, as I've been discussing with you, people claiming

1:17:09.200 --> 1:17:12.959
<v Speaker 1>the President of the United States is a trader, okay,

1:17:13.000 --> 1:17:16.839
<v Speaker 1>and including former intelligence agency heads to the general public

1:17:17.160 --> 1:17:21.559
<v Speaker 1>understandably thinks must have some inside track on the president's treason.

1:17:21.800 --> 1:17:25.120
<v Speaker 1>They're silent on that. But when it comes to Brennan's clearance,

1:17:25.120 --> 1:17:28.280
<v Speaker 1>we're supposed to think that this is how you know,

1:17:28.320 --> 1:17:32.360
<v Speaker 1>the the American people on every water tower across the country,

1:17:32.400 --> 1:17:35.400
<v Speaker 1>there are all these different you know, they're all these

1:17:35.439 --> 1:17:38.960
<v Speaker 1>different posters and and and placards, that are being put

1:17:39.000 --> 1:17:42.439
<v Speaker 1>up about Brennan's clearance. You know in small towns across America,

1:17:42.680 --> 1:17:46.960
<v Speaker 1>give Brennan back his clearance. We don't care. I don't care,

1:17:48.320 --> 1:17:51.120
<v Speaker 1>you know. I asked the former c I a uh

1:17:51.240 --> 1:17:53.880
<v Speaker 1>public affairs director. I forget what a specific title was,

1:17:53.920 --> 1:17:56.080
<v Speaker 1>but a former CI executive that I sat on my

1:17:56.080 --> 1:17:59.479
<v Speaker 1>show here in d C. I said, can't you just

1:17:59.600 --> 1:18:01.519
<v Speaker 1>give the eyes clearance back if you really want to,

1:18:01.560 --> 1:18:03.439
<v Speaker 1>if you really want to reinstate him. If the government

1:18:03.439 --> 1:18:06.400
<v Speaker 1>wants to bring Brennan in, you know what, they can

1:18:06.439 --> 1:18:09.880
<v Speaker 1>reinstate his clearance. If President Trump was like, oh my gosh,

1:18:09.920 --> 1:18:13.599
<v Speaker 1>we desperately need John Brennan's advice on this one, then

1:18:13.640 --> 1:18:16.559
<v Speaker 1>they could bring him in. The next administration could bring

1:18:16.680 --> 1:18:18.360
<v Speaker 1>him in. And people who are saying, oh, this is

1:18:18.400 --> 1:18:21.360
<v Speaker 1>so politicized, what I want to say is yeah, but

1:18:21.400 --> 1:18:26.559
<v Speaker 1>this is an extreme situation. Brennan is the extreme here. Well,

1:18:26.560 --> 1:18:30.400
<v Speaker 1>what he's doing is unethical, folks. He is undermining the

1:18:30.520 --> 1:18:35.240
<v Speaker 1>commander in chief of this country and using the perception

1:18:35.360 --> 1:18:39.720
<v Speaker 1>of his super user access to classified information to do it.

1:18:40.600 --> 1:18:42.960
<v Speaker 1>And so the presidents like, well, no more classified for you.

1:18:43.000 --> 1:18:47.320
<v Speaker 1>By the way, it is so interesting how upset these

1:18:47.320 --> 1:18:49.599
<v Speaker 1>guys all get, including film. Oh when you talk about

1:18:49.600 --> 1:18:52.000
<v Speaker 1>how you know we don't necessarily need their clearance. The

1:18:52.040 --> 1:18:56.519
<v Speaker 1>intelligence community is vast. There are so many people working

1:18:56.520 --> 1:18:59.960
<v Speaker 1>on all these issues. I can't think of a situation,

1:19:00.000 --> 1:19:02.640
<v Speaker 1>aation where we would have been at a loss. You

1:19:02.640 --> 1:19:05.439
<v Speaker 1>know they do, they do outgoing briefings and for the

1:19:05.880 --> 1:19:08.160
<v Speaker 1>incoming team if there's a new CIA director. I mean,

1:19:08.200 --> 1:19:11.240
<v Speaker 1>of course, all that bureaucratic stuff happens. I can't even

1:19:11.320 --> 1:19:13.840
<v Speaker 1>fathom a situation where this would be necessary. I can't

1:19:13.880 --> 1:19:16.599
<v Speaker 1>even think of it. And they're acting like, oh, well,

1:19:16.720 --> 1:19:18.519
<v Speaker 1>I'm not saying that doesn't mean it can happen. Yeah,

1:19:18.520 --> 1:19:21.719
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure they bring in former people and but generally speaking,

1:19:21.840 --> 1:19:24.679
<v Speaker 1>let me tell you something, the former director and they're

1:19:24.800 --> 1:19:27.640
<v Speaker 1>really necessarily like, I want to have that much of

1:19:27.680 --> 1:19:30.000
<v Speaker 1>the or rather, the current director doesn't want to have

1:19:30.000 --> 1:19:32.040
<v Speaker 1>that much of the former director poking around and telling

1:19:32.080 --> 1:19:34.960
<v Speaker 1>him what to do. Trust me on that one. But

1:19:35.080 --> 1:19:38.960
<v Speaker 1>this is just again the the outrage machinery exhausts itself here.

1:19:39.160 --> 1:19:41.479
<v Speaker 1>I we don't really care. I don't really care, you

1:19:41.520 --> 1:19:44.479
<v Speaker 1>don't really care. It's one guy who does not have

1:19:44.520 --> 1:19:47.679
<v Speaker 1>a constitutional right to have a top level security clearance,

1:19:47.960 --> 1:19:50.160
<v Speaker 1>and he's going around on TV being a maniac. By

1:19:50.160 --> 1:19:52.519
<v Speaker 1>the way, everybody that I know in the business, and

1:19:52.560 --> 1:19:54.479
<v Speaker 1>I know a lot of people, think that Brennan has

1:19:54.479 --> 1:19:57.200
<v Speaker 1>not just been saying things that are irresponsible, but has

1:19:57.200 --> 1:19:59.760
<v Speaker 1>been crossing the line here and talking to press about

1:19:59.760 --> 1:20:02.400
<v Speaker 1>things is not supposed to. Now that's not on the

1:20:02.400 --> 1:20:06.160
<v Speaker 1>record yet, we don't know, but I'm if I'm placing

1:20:06.240 --> 1:20:08.040
<v Speaker 1>bets my friends. I think it's just a matter of

1:20:08.040 --> 1:20:10.160
<v Speaker 1>time before we do find that out. But oh, by

1:20:10.200 --> 1:20:12.639
<v Speaker 1>the way, it actually gets a little bit crazier here

1:20:12.680 --> 1:20:16.519
<v Speaker 1>between Dennard and Paris Denard and film mud over at CNN.

1:20:17.760 --> 1:20:20.280
<v Speaker 1>It devolves, folks. Get ready for it. Here it comes

1:20:20.560 --> 1:20:22.840
<v Speaker 1>your role with the federal government. I'm talking about the

1:20:22.880 --> 1:20:28.240
<v Speaker 1>time that a sultan and a contractor, the consulting firms

1:20:28.240 --> 1:20:30.559
<v Speaker 1>that they form and that you all get is because

1:20:30.640 --> 1:20:33.519
<v Speaker 1>you get more money when having a consultant before having

1:20:33.640 --> 1:20:36.599
<v Speaker 1>the security class like that doesn't happen. I have zero

1:20:36.720 --> 1:20:39.920
<v Speaker 1>consulting relationship with the US government. Zero. I'm not talking

1:20:40.080 --> 1:20:42.400
<v Speaker 1>feel that's a good talking point. I'm not talking about

1:20:42.439 --> 1:20:45.120
<v Speaker 1>relationship with the government. I'm talking about in the private sector.

1:20:45.200 --> 1:20:48.000
<v Speaker 1>When you have a security fan and you keep relationships

1:20:48.000 --> 1:20:51.320
<v Speaker 1>with the private sector that involved my security clearance? Zero

1:20:51.680 --> 1:20:55.080
<v Speaker 1>who says that we're talking about Phil mud and his contracts.

1:20:55.520 --> 1:20:57.479
<v Speaker 1>We're talking about you know or not we but but

1:20:57.560 --> 1:21:01.080
<v Speaker 1>Paris Dennard is actually talking about in general secure any clearances.

1:21:01.120 --> 1:21:04.240
<v Speaker 1>This is just true, folks. You are worth more as

1:21:04.240 --> 1:21:08.599
<v Speaker 1>a private sector contractor who works on government contracts if

1:21:08.600 --> 1:21:10.919
<v Speaker 1>you have a clearance and if you don't. This everybody

1:21:10.920 --> 1:21:13.200
<v Speaker 1>knows this. I don't know why Phil Mudd is acting

1:21:13.240 --> 1:21:16.280
<v Speaker 1>like this is all about him, but he goes even further.

1:21:16.640 --> 1:21:19.880
<v Speaker 1>I get zero dollars from consulting companies that deal with

1:21:20.000 --> 1:21:22.840
<v Speaker 1>US government. Are we clear? Well, I will be clear

1:21:22.920 --> 1:21:25.360
<v Speaker 1>and saying that everybody in Washington, d c Knows. If

1:21:25.400 --> 1:21:27.200
<v Speaker 1>you don't want to be honest about it, that's on you.

1:21:27.439 --> 1:21:29.640
<v Speaker 1>But if you have a security clearance and you keep it,

1:21:29.840 --> 1:21:34.360
<v Speaker 1>you can do money to get out. It's not your show.

1:21:36.680 --> 1:21:41.160
<v Speaker 1>Don't be self defensive about this. I mean we we

1:21:41.240 --> 1:21:44.160
<v Speaker 1>had to actually edit it out. Phil Mud there, CNN's

1:21:44.640 --> 1:21:48.840
<v Speaker 1>paid on air analysts was was dropping dropped an s

1:21:48.880 --> 1:21:51.120
<v Speaker 1>bomb there at the end that that's how crazy this

1:21:51.160 --> 1:21:54.160
<v Speaker 1>whole thing made him and you have to wonder, folks,

1:21:54.800 --> 1:21:56.720
<v Speaker 1>you know what, what could push people to take this

1:21:56.800 --> 1:22:00.679
<v Speaker 1>show personally. You'll notice in the in the era of Trump,

1:22:00.800 --> 1:22:04.800
<v Speaker 1>this is a constant theme that and anything that is

1:22:04.840 --> 1:22:09.120
<v Speaker 1>Trump related gets the the anti trumpers thinking about it

1:22:09.120 --> 1:22:11.519
<v Speaker 1>in terms of how it affects them. You know, it's like, oh,

1:22:11.640 --> 1:22:13.600
<v Speaker 1>how dare you say this thing about me? No one

1:22:13.640 --> 1:22:17.040
<v Speaker 1>said anything about film mun Paris Dear didn't saying that

1:22:17.120 --> 1:22:19.240
<v Speaker 1>film Mont. I'm not saying anything about well, I'm making

1:22:19.240 --> 1:22:22.040
<v Speaker 1>fun of him freaking out on on CNN. But you know,

1:22:22.400 --> 1:22:24.720
<v Speaker 1>one of the other promise here is that the crazier

1:22:25.360 --> 1:22:27.479
<v Speaker 1>you get on air, and this is true of a

1:22:27.560 --> 1:22:31.840
<v Speaker 1>lot of anti trumpers out there, the crazier you get

1:22:31.880 --> 1:22:35.240
<v Speaker 1>on air, and the more extreme the articles you write

1:22:35.280 --> 1:22:39.000
<v Speaker 1>and the more outrageous the allegations you make against this president,

1:22:39.640 --> 1:22:44.200
<v Speaker 1>the more the left praises you, you know, the more

1:22:44.280 --> 1:22:46.600
<v Speaker 1>they think that you're actually a real hero for the

1:22:46.680 --> 1:22:48.920
<v Speaker 1>cause and that you're somebody who's really committed that you're

1:22:48.920 --> 1:22:50.439
<v Speaker 1>trying to do the work. You know, you're trying to

1:22:50.920 --> 1:22:53.120
<v Speaker 1>take down this presidency. You're you're trying to be the

1:22:53.160 --> 1:22:56.120
<v Speaker 1>one that makes sure that you know that the American

1:22:56.160 --> 1:22:59.080
<v Speaker 1>people are safe from the tyranny of Trump is um

1:22:59.120 --> 1:23:00.880
<v Speaker 1>but the clearance is who has been. It's been known

1:23:00.880 --> 1:23:02.799
<v Speaker 1>for a long time. One of the problems the federal

1:23:02.800 --> 1:23:04.800
<v Speaker 1>government has had, stretching back to my time in the

1:23:04.840 --> 1:23:08.880
<v Speaker 1>federal government, is people who take a government job and

1:23:08.920 --> 1:23:11.639
<v Speaker 1>then jump ship and they keep that clearance work that's

1:23:11.640 --> 1:23:14.360
<v Speaker 1>done in their background, and then they monetize it in

1:23:14.400 --> 1:23:16.080
<v Speaker 1>the private sector and go back and work on a

1:23:16.120 --> 1:23:19.519
<v Speaker 1>government contract somewhere. This this is just these are facts.

1:23:19.560 --> 1:23:22.479
<v Speaker 1>This is not someone's opinion. That's what happens. So for

1:23:22.560 --> 1:23:24.960
<v Speaker 1>phil Mud to act like this is some you know,

1:23:25.120 --> 1:23:28.160
<v Speaker 1>terrible slight some insult against him and his family and

1:23:28.200 --> 1:23:30.040
<v Speaker 1>everything else or pe Well he didn't say his family,

1:23:30.080 --> 1:23:31.280
<v Speaker 1>but you know what I mean. To act like this

1:23:31.320 --> 1:23:35.120
<v Speaker 1>is some blood feud, it's just crazy. But you know,

1:23:35.160 --> 1:23:39.080
<v Speaker 1>I I I'm running out of adjectives to describe the

1:23:39.120 --> 1:23:43.599
<v Speaker 1>way Democrats react to Trump on TV now, and I'm

1:23:43.640 --> 1:23:45.639
<v Speaker 1>running out of ways to talk about this. I've described

1:23:45.680 --> 1:23:48.320
<v Speaker 1>it as pathological. I've described it as really a as

1:23:48.360 --> 1:23:51.960
<v Speaker 1>an illness. I think we're there. Uh, this is this

1:23:52.040 --> 1:23:54.880
<v Speaker 1>is not a normal time in American politics at all.

1:23:55.200 --> 1:23:58.599
<v Speaker 1>It's not just that things are our partisan and nasty.

1:23:59.120 --> 1:24:03.240
<v Speaker 1>It's that you can't even engage on the middle ground

1:24:03.280 --> 1:24:06.400
<v Speaker 1>of hey, let's at least keep some decorum here. And

1:24:06.439 --> 1:24:08.799
<v Speaker 1>by the way, did go on CNN and just start cursing?

1:24:09.360 --> 1:24:11.280
<v Speaker 1>You know, But he's not gonna get suspended for that.

1:24:11.360 --> 1:24:13.120
<v Speaker 1>He's not gonna get talked to for that. You know.

1:24:13.360 --> 1:24:17.479
<v Speaker 1>I get yelled at if I ever talked when Dravid

1:24:17.560 --> 1:24:21.320
<v Speaker 1>Gergen was talking about Nixon and Reagan and Ford. And

1:24:21.720 --> 1:24:23.479
<v Speaker 1>you know, if I said anything and there was any

1:24:23.479 --> 1:24:26.320
<v Speaker 1>cross talk with gurgling with Gurgan back in my CNN days,

1:24:26.479 --> 1:24:29.280
<v Speaker 1>they'd pull me aside and give me a time out,

1:24:29.360 --> 1:24:30.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, make me wear the dunce cap in the

1:24:30.920 --> 1:24:34.639
<v Speaker 1>corner by myself. But you if you're trashing a Trump person,

1:24:34.720 --> 1:24:36.800
<v Speaker 1>you can pretty much do anything, you know, and they'll

1:24:36.800 --> 1:24:38.000
<v Speaker 1>just they'll just let you go. By the way. That's

1:24:38.000 --> 1:24:39.880
<v Speaker 1>why I would never That's why I wouldn't go on CNN. Now.

1:24:39.920 --> 1:24:41.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean, Paris will handle it, good for him, but

1:24:42.720 --> 1:24:44.479
<v Speaker 1>I have no interest because they have no interest in

1:24:44.560 --> 1:24:47.080
<v Speaker 1>having a real conversation because CNN decided to go to

1:24:47.160 --> 1:24:49.920
<v Speaker 1>war against this president. Don't ever forget that that was

1:24:50.000 --> 1:24:54.640
<v Speaker 1>reported and I know who actually got that initial information,

1:24:54.680 --> 1:24:57.240
<v Speaker 1>and it's real. CNN said that they were going to

1:24:57.280 --> 1:24:59.760
<v Speaker 1>war against the president, all right, that was a thing

1:24:59.800 --> 1:25:03.479
<v Speaker 1>that was said and overheard in the vicinity of the

1:25:03.520 --> 1:25:06.479
<v Speaker 1>head of CNN, Jeff Sucker. They have gone to war

1:25:06.520 --> 1:25:10.840
<v Speaker 1>against this president and they are losing. I know it

1:25:10.880 --> 1:25:13.519
<v Speaker 1>can be tempting to get sucked in by the latest

1:25:13.760 --> 1:25:17.720
<v Speaker 1>Macha green foam SOI latte nonsense. But folks, if you

1:26:26.720 --> 1:26:30.320
<v Speaker 1>my friend and who tells crazy lies about me. Uh

1:26:30.800 --> 1:26:33.720
<v Speaker 1>is thrown off Twitter, I think, and Facebook and a

1:26:33.720 --> 1:26:39.880
<v Speaker 1>few of the platforms. I think he's going to. Uh. Well,

1:26:40.640 --> 1:26:42.679
<v Speaker 1>if you're a liberal, you're supposed to be for free speech.

1:26:42.720 --> 1:26:45.320
<v Speaker 1>That's free speech for the speech you hate. That's what

1:26:45.439 --> 1:26:49.280
<v Speaker 1>free speech means. We're losing the thread of the concepts

1:26:49.280 --> 1:26:51.639
<v Speaker 1>that are important to this country, and you care about

1:26:51.640 --> 1:26:53.880
<v Speaker 1>the real American where you don't and if you do,

1:26:54.000 --> 1:26:56.839
<v Speaker 1>which goes for every side. I don't like Alex Jones,

1:26:57.400 --> 1:27:00.559
<v Speaker 1>but Alex Jones gets to speak. Everybody get to speak.

1:27:01.400 --> 1:27:04.439
<v Speaker 1>You know. I don't really like Alex Jones either, so

1:27:05.040 --> 1:27:07.479
<v Speaker 1>and from what I understand, he doesn't really like me.

1:27:07.920 --> 1:27:10.960
<v Speaker 1>This is from all Access dot Com. Ten questions for

1:27:11.040 --> 1:27:14.240
<v Speaker 1>Buck Sexton. I never even knew who this guy was

1:27:14.240 --> 1:27:15.720
<v Speaker 1>when I saw him. But I said, that guy is

1:27:15.760 --> 1:27:19.320
<v Speaker 1>a government agent. The secure look, the satisfied look. So

1:27:19.400 --> 1:27:22.120
<v Speaker 1>let's put aside for a second that Alex Jones is

1:27:22.360 --> 1:27:26.400
<v Speaker 1>a crazy person who is completely unethical and his analysis

1:27:26.479 --> 1:27:30.599
<v Speaker 1>and says things that are both deeply laughable and deeply

1:27:30.640 --> 1:27:33.360
<v Speaker 1>destructive at the same time, and that he made fun

1:27:33.400 --> 1:27:35.799
<v Speaker 1>of my hair, which is a crime that will always

1:27:35.800 --> 1:27:39.720
<v Speaker 1>be unforgivable. He is currently at the centerpiece of a

1:27:39.880 --> 1:27:43.080
<v Speaker 1>national discussion over censorship, and that's where I want to

1:27:43.120 --> 1:27:46.400
<v Speaker 1>go back to this clip. This exchange with Bill Maher

1:27:46.720 --> 1:27:50.280
<v Speaker 1>was was pretty astonishing. Here. First of all, you had

1:27:51.479 --> 1:27:56.360
<v Speaker 1>grand Holme Jennifer Granholm, whom I've debated once or twice before,

1:27:56.640 --> 1:28:02.639
<v Speaker 1>she was the uh was the governor of and she's

1:28:02.640 --> 1:28:07.680
<v Speaker 1>a Democrat governor of Michigan. Oh my gosh, Michigan. You

1:28:07.760 --> 1:28:10.479
<v Speaker 1>made Jennifer Granham your governor. What the heck is wrong

1:28:10.560 --> 1:28:15.479
<v Speaker 1>with you? Guys? Anyway, you saw the you saw that exchange,

1:28:15.479 --> 1:28:20.519
<v Speaker 1>and she goes, yes, Alex Jones, he's silenced. And Bill Maher,

1:28:20.760 --> 1:28:23.920
<v Speaker 1>who has made his whole life essentially making jokes and

1:28:23.920 --> 1:28:27.640
<v Speaker 1>often offending people, is like, no, Liberals, you're not supposed

1:28:27.680 --> 1:28:30.400
<v Speaker 1>to do this. You're not supposed to be the ones

1:28:30.760 --> 1:28:36.559
<v Speaker 1>cheering anyone getting completely shut down and banned from the

1:28:36.600 --> 1:28:40.599
<v Speaker 1>public square because of speech. And I know people keep saying,

1:28:41.120 --> 1:28:43.920
<v Speaker 1>uh that, they keep bringing up all the time that

1:28:44.000 --> 1:28:47.320
<v Speaker 1>Twitter and Facebook and these are private companies. Well, first

1:28:47.360 --> 1:28:50.680
<v Speaker 1>of all, as liberals will tell you, private companies are

1:28:50.680 --> 1:28:54.880
<v Speaker 1>regulated in all kinds of ways. So the national conversation

1:28:54.960 --> 1:28:57.760
<v Speaker 1>about what private companies that are as large and powerful

1:28:57.800 --> 1:29:02.599
<v Speaker 1>as Facebook and Twitter, how that conversation goes can affect

1:29:03.000 --> 1:29:06.400
<v Speaker 1>the legislation and the regulation of what's going on here.

1:29:06.520 --> 1:29:09.360
<v Speaker 1>Are they treated as utilities? Will people try to break

1:29:09.400 --> 1:29:12.800
<v Speaker 1>them up and say that they are monopolies? Although I

1:29:12.800 --> 1:29:15.280
<v Speaker 1>think if nothing else, what we've seen here is that

1:29:15.320 --> 1:29:19.400
<v Speaker 1>there's a a chink in the armor of some of

1:29:19.400 --> 1:29:22.559
<v Speaker 1>these social media platforms. Now they're no longer considered to

1:29:22.560 --> 1:29:27.680
<v Speaker 1>be quite as invulnerable because if half, if half of

1:29:27.720 --> 1:29:30.760
<v Speaker 1>the people that are on these platforms, at least in America,

1:29:31.040 --> 1:29:34.519
<v Speaker 1>feel like they're being targeted for their ideas, there's certainly

1:29:34.560 --> 1:29:38.040
<v Speaker 1>an alternative, or there there could be an alternative out there.

1:29:38.840 --> 1:29:41.160
<v Speaker 1>So I do think that there are long term implications

1:29:41.240 --> 1:29:43.920
<v Speaker 1>for how these social media companies will do and how

1:29:43.960 --> 1:29:48.639
<v Speaker 1>they will function. But notice how more has to slap

1:29:48.720 --> 1:29:53.160
<v Speaker 1>down grant homes stupidity there for a second. Because it's

1:29:53.160 --> 1:29:54.960
<v Speaker 1>supposed to be the liberals who are the ones who

1:29:54.960 --> 1:29:57.120
<v Speaker 1>want free speech. It's supposed to be that this is

1:29:57.160 --> 1:29:59.200
<v Speaker 1>what is part of the lore right, although that's never

1:29:59.240 --> 1:30:03.280
<v Speaker 1>really been true. They want free speech when it suits them,

1:30:03.439 --> 1:30:08.240
<v Speaker 1>and they've always been pushing for hate speech laws and

1:30:08.240 --> 1:30:10.880
<v Speaker 1>and you know, in form in my lifetime at least,

1:30:10.880 --> 1:30:12.400
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I won't pretend to know what things were

1:30:12.439 --> 1:30:15.000
<v Speaker 1>like from the sixties through the through the eighties, but

1:30:15.439 --> 1:30:18.439
<v Speaker 1>starting from as long as far back as I can remember,

1:30:18.600 --> 1:30:20.600
<v Speaker 1>liberals are the ones who want the government to be

1:30:20.640 --> 1:30:23.559
<v Speaker 1>in a position of authority to shut down the speech

1:30:23.640 --> 1:30:27.360
<v Speaker 1>that they do not like. And this is a big

1:30:27.439 --> 1:30:30.760
<v Speaker 1>change for them. I mean culturally, they now have to

1:30:31.600 --> 1:30:33.640
<v Speaker 1>deal with the fact that they are no longer a

1:30:33.680 --> 1:30:36.920
<v Speaker 1>party that's all about the Berkeley free speech movement. And

1:30:37.120 --> 1:30:41.880
<v Speaker 1>with this deep platforming effort and speech equals violence and

1:30:41.920 --> 1:30:45.920
<v Speaker 1>all these different constructs that they've come up with to

1:30:45.960 --> 1:30:49.280
<v Speaker 1>try and limit speech that they don't like, it's increasingly

1:30:49.360 --> 1:30:53.040
<v Speaker 1>clear that liberals are bracing a really embracing a really

1:30:53.120 --> 1:30:57.840
<v Speaker 1>authoritarian approach on these issues, and they no longer are

1:30:57.880 --> 1:30:59.960
<v Speaker 1>a part. That's why I hate calling them liberals. They

1:31:00.000 --> 1:31:04.559
<v Speaker 1>are anti liberty. There it's a misnomer to call them liberals.

1:31:04.840 --> 1:31:08.920
<v Speaker 1>It's really incorrect. Uh, you could say they are progressives,

1:31:08.960 --> 1:31:12.040
<v Speaker 1>their socialists. Really, you know, we we don't like to

1:31:12.080 --> 1:31:13.559
<v Speaker 1>say this, we don't like to talk about it, but

1:31:13.600 --> 1:31:16.720
<v Speaker 1>you could say they're democratic socialists. But this is really

1:31:16.800 --> 1:31:19.800
<v Speaker 1>what the Democratic Party in this country has become. And

1:31:19.840 --> 1:31:22.439
<v Speaker 1>you know that they like to just constantly change the

1:31:22.520 --> 1:31:25.400
<v Speaker 1>language and and hide from the truth. But what do

1:31:25.439 --> 1:31:30.120
<v Speaker 1>they want? More government, higher taxes, government in control of businesses,

1:31:30.120 --> 1:31:33.560
<v Speaker 1>government and control of of the day to day operations

1:31:33.640 --> 1:31:38.320
<v Speaker 1>via regulation, and massive taxation, and enormous safety net. Right,

1:31:38.479 --> 1:31:42.320
<v Speaker 1>these are socialist ideas, So why can't they just be

1:31:42.360 --> 1:31:44.640
<v Speaker 1>honest about it? No, we have to call them democrats

1:31:44.720 --> 1:31:48.280
<v Speaker 1>because what they believe in, they believe in democracy, and

1:31:48.320 --> 1:31:50.200
<v Speaker 1>we don't. Is that really what the idea is supposed

1:31:50.200 --> 1:31:55.880
<v Speaker 1>to be? Here? So much dishonesty in the modern Democratic

1:31:55.880 --> 1:31:59.320
<v Speaker 1>Party's philosophy. But that's not gonna change anytime soon. So

1:31:59.360 --> 1:32:01.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm not even sure how helpful it is for us

1:32:01.240 --> 1:32:04.760
<v Speaker 1>to bemoan that. But I did. What really struck me

1:32:04.800 --> 1:32:07.200
<v Speaker 1>there was that initially you had the cheering for Yeah,

1:32:07.240 --> 1:32:11.280
<v Speaker 1>Alex Jones is gone. Bill Maher, who on some issues

1:32:11.320 --> 1:32:14.080
<v Speaker 1>is horrendous, but on free speech and on Islam, he's

1:32:14.080 --> 1:32:17.040
<v Speaker 1>pretty good. Bill Maher has to say to her, what

1:32:17.080 --> 1:32:21.000
<v Speaker 1>are you doing cheering for censorship? You know, the liberals

1:32:21.000 --> 1:32:24.560
<v Speaker 1>are the ones folks who say that pornography is free expression.

1:32:24.760 --> 1:32:26.599
<v Speaker 1>The liberals are the ones who have been saying for

1:32:26.640 --> 1:32:29.519
<v Speaker 1>a long time that you know, a crucifix and urine

1:32:29.560 --> 1:32:32.479
<v Speaker 1>as a as a taxpayer funded art exhibit, you know

1:32:32.560 --> 1:32:34.960
<v Speaker 1>that can't be sensored. I mean, they're the ones who

1:32:34.960 --> 1:32:39.040
<v Speaker 1>are always saying no rules, no rules, offensiveness against Christianity

1:32:39.160 --> 1:32:42.360
<v Speaker 1>is fine, be as blasphemous as you want, do whatever.

1:32:42.479 --> 1:32:46.400
<v Speaker 1>You know, that's been their position. But now when it

1:32:46.439 --> 1:32:48.600
<v Speaker 1>comes to some of their favorite groups, or when it

1:32:48.640 --> 1:32:51.240
<v Speaker 1>comes to issues where they feel like they have an

1:32:51.280 --> 1:32:56.920
<v Speaker 1>increasing amount of power, they're just embracing censorship. I mean

1:32:56.920 --> 1:32:59.880
<v Speaker 1>that they are embracing it under these different rubrics that

1:33:00.080 --> 1:33:02.880
<v Speaker 1>calling it d platform ng or they'll you know, they'll

1:33:02.880 --> 1:33:06.280
<v Speaker 1>call it something else, right, they'll say that a conversational

1:33:06.360 --> 1:33:10.320
<v Speaker 1>health to borrow from the Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey. But

1:33:10.520 --> 1:33:14.040
<v Speaker 1>the truth is that they are abandoning something that for

1:33:14.080 --> 1:33:17.000
<v Speaker 1>a long time they held to be central to their

1:33:17.040 --> 1:33:20.320
<v Speaker 1>ideological identity. Whether it was true or not a separate issue,

1:33:20.760 --> 1:33:23.160
<v Speaker 1>and I would say to you that it's untrue. But

1:33:23.320 --> 1:33:26.640
<v Speaker 1>they are now openly just advocating for things that we

1:33:26.720 --> 1:33:29.400
<v Speaker 1>don't like. People should not be allowed to say and

1:33:29.439 --> 1:33:33.040
<v Speaker 1>should be punished for saying by private companies and in

1:33:33.080 --> 1:33:37.799
<v Speaker 1>the public square. And it's a very small step for

1:33:38.200 --> 1:33:41.680
<v Speaker 1>that to turn into government regulation. And by the way,

1:33:41.720 --> 1:33:44.240
<v Speaker 1>they're already doing that. I mean, when you look at

1:33:44.280 --> 1:33:47.680
<v Speaker 1>the way the laws are currently set up or the

1:33:47.680 --> 1:33:50.599
<v Speaker 1>way some of these government bodies are set up, they

1:33:50.600 --> 1:33:53.479
<v Speaker 1>are also trying to censor via the government. Don't forget that.

1:33:53.520 --> 1:33:55.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean there they've gone back to the guy who

1:33:55.960 --> 1:33:58.519
<v Speaker 1>didn't want to bake a gay wedding cake and try

1:33:58.600 --> 1:34:01.520
<v Speaker 1>to make him bake a cake of Satan with a

1:34:01.520 --> 1:34:03.280
<v Speaker 1>a sex toy on it. I mean, you know, the

1:34:03.680 --> 1:34:06.000
<v Speaker 1>and the and the account of the Colorado Civil Rights

1:34:06.080 --> 1:34:09.360
<v Speaker 1>or Human Rights Commission is going after the guy. So

1:34:09.439 --> 1:34:13.960
<v Speaker 1>they are little petty authoritarians when it comes to speech,

1:34:14.000 --> 1:34:16.920
<v Speaker 1>and that's really who democrats have becoming. I think Bill

1:34:17.000 --> 1:34:19.759
<v Speaker 1>Maher maybe has realized this a little late in the game,

1:34:19.840 --> 1:34:22.760
<v Speaker 1>but he's not about to change this anytime soon. That's

1:34:22.760 --> 1:34:37.840
<v Speaker 1>who the Democrats have become. He's holding the line for

1:34:37.920 --> 1:34:47.960
<v Speaker 1>America buck sex in his back. So I gathered with

1:34:48.080 --> 1:34:50.960
<v Speaker 1>one of my conservative friends here in d C over

1:34:51.000 --> 1:34:54.000
<v Speaker 1>the weekend. A buddy of mine. We got, you know,

1:34:54.080 --> 1:34:57.639
<v Speaker 1>drinks and dinner. Ms. Molly was away at a bachelorette party,

1:34:57.760 --> 1:34:59.880
<v Speaker 1>which is apparently a thing where a bunch of young

1:35:00.080 --> 1:35:03.080
<v Speaker 1>m and all get together and do bachelorette things. I

1:35:03.120 --> 1:35:05.880
<v Speaker 1>don't even know what that really means. But he asked

1:35:05.920 --> 1:35:09.240
<v Speaker 1>me about whether I knew what happened to Colin Jost

1:35:09.840 --> 1:35:12.200
<v Speaker 1>and I said, no, what are you talking about? Because

1:35:12.680 --> 1:35:16.160
<v Speaker 1>he didn't know this. But as I mentioned you before, Colin,

1:35:16.200 --> 1:35:19.599
<v Speaker 1>who is the weekend update anchor for Saturday Night Live,

1:35:20.240 --> 1:35:24.080
<v Speaker 1>was my high school classmate and also on my debate team,

1:35:24.120 --> 1:35:26.120
<v Speaker 1>and he's now was on my debate team and is

1:35:26.120 --> 1:35:30.760
<v Speaker 1>now most famous for being the a cou trement of

1:35:30.880 --> 1:35:34.760
<v Speaker 1>Scarlett Johanson, and he is dating Scarlett Johansson right now.

1:35:35.360 --> 1:35:37.640
<v Speaker 1>But I had no idea that there was some controversy

1:35:37.680 --> 1:35:40.920
<v Speaker 1>with with Colin, whom I haven't seen I bumped into

1:35:40.920 --> 1:35:43.720
<v Speaker 1>on the street maybe a year or two ago. I

1:35:43.760 --> 1:35:45.840
<v Speaker 1>haven't seen him, and I think SNL is a terrible

1:35:45.880 --> 1:35:48.080
<v Speaker 1>and deeply unfunny show, so it's probably best that we

1:35:48.120 --> 1:35:51.080
<v Speaker 1>don't talk about that very much. But Colin did say

1:35:51.080 --> 1:35:54.560
<v Speaker 1>some stuff in response to it. Well, he was interviewed.

1:35:55.120 --> 1:35:58.519
<v Speaker 1>He was interviewed because he's gonna be hosting the Emmy's

1:35:58.640 --> 1:36:02.360
<v Speaker 1>with Michael Chay, who's co host on Weekend Update, and

1:36:02.520 --> 1:36:04.519
<v Speaker 1>I it was a you know they had the it

1:36:04.600 --> 1:36:08.080
<v Speaker 1>was a transcribed interview, and in response to one of

1:36:08.120 --> 1:36:11.960
<v Speaker 1>the questions, Colin said this, I think most of the time,

1:36:12.439 --> 1:36:16.599
<v Speaker 1>award shows are way too self serious and focused on

1:36:16.640 --> 1:36:20.920
<v Speaker 1>things that of the country doesn't care about. This is

1:36:20.960 --> 1:36:23.439
<v Speaker 1>to the Los Angeles Times. At the end of the day,

1:36:23.560 --> 1:36:27.360
<v Speaker 1>it's adults getting trophies. Why should that be taken seriously?

1:36:28.960 --> 1:36:31.439
<v Speaker 1>But I completely agree with Colin all this. I think

1:36:31.439 --> 1:36:34.080
<v Speaker 1>he I think he couldn't be more correct. I think

1:36:34.080 --> 1:36:36.719
<v Speaker 1>it is. The whole thing is ridiculous, and I'm glad

1:36:36.720 --> 1:36:39.400
<v Speaker 1>that somebody's calling it out. Uh. And then he went

1:36:39.400 --> 1:36:44.120
<v Speaker 1>on to say, remember when movies like Gladiator, which is amazing,

1:36:44.320 --> 1:36:55.519
<v Speaker 1>by the way, are you not at the day. He

1:36:55.560 --> 1:36:57.800
<v Speaker 1>went on to say, why can't fund good movies win?

1:36:57.920 --> 1:37:01.479
<v Speaker 1>And not just artsy things. They're both good and fun,

1:37:01.560 --> 1:37:04.880
<v Speaker 1>and sometimes the fun ones are harder, a lot harder

1:37:04.880 --> 1:37:08.360
<v Speaker 1>to make. The Saturday Night Live star told the outlet,

1:37:09.000 --> 1:37:11.080
<v Speaker 1>this to me is like not even It's not that

1:37:11.120 --> 1:37:16.240
<v Speaker 1>it's not controversial. It's obviously objectively true. Right, there's so

1:37:16.280 --> 1:37:18.680
<v Speaker 1>many movies. I've told you The Shape of Water is

1:37:18.680 --> 1:37:21.360
<v Speaker 1>about a woman who has sex with her aquarium pet. Okay,

1:37:21.360 --> 1:37:25.040
<v Speaker 1>that is a fact. These are terrible movies. And while

1:37:25.080 --> 1:37:29.639
<v Speaker 1>I did see The Avengers, uh, Ultra whatever the most

1:37:29.840 --> 1:37:32.040
<v Speaker 1>I can't remember what it was called now, you know,

1:37:32.120 --> 1:37:35.360
<v Speaker 1>Forever War or something. It was awful. I couldn't even

1:37:35.360 --> 1:37:37.719
<v Speaker 1>get through the first hour of it. Yeah, there's popular

1:37:37.720 --> 1:37:40.439
<v Speaker 1>movies that are terrible. We don't have to pretend that

1:37:40.600 --> 1:37:43.920
<v Speaker 1>artsy movies are good even when they're awful and unpopular.

1:37:44.640 --> 1:37:47.519
<v Speaker 1>Well you think this was not just uncontroversial but a

1:37:47.400 --> 1:37:52.280
<v Speaker 1>actually smart thing that Colin said. He got annihilated on

1:37:52.360 --> 1:37:56.280
<v Speaker 1>Twitter for this over the weekend by journalists uh and

1:37:56.320 --> 1:37:59.720
<v Speaker 1>people who wrote things like, quote, Colin Jost is just

1:37:59.800 --> 1:38:02.679
<v Speaker 1>a loaf of wonder bread with a degree from Harvard

1:38:02.840 --> 1:38:07.880
<v Speaker 1>and Colin Joe's favorite movies ranked Gladiator, Boondock Saints, Boondock Saints,

1:38:07.880 --> 1:38:11.160
<v Speaker 1>Boondock Saints, Boondock Saints, Boondoc Saints. I mean, people were

1:38:11.439 --> 1:38:15.800
<v Speaker 1>freaking out on him. He was trending on Twitter for

1:38:15.920 --> 1:38:19.479
<v Speaker 1>a while because of this, because he said, maybe movies

1:38:19.520 --> 1:38:23.519
<v Speaker 1>like Gladiator, and yeah, that's right, Braveheart, the greatest movie

1:38:23.600 --> 1:38:28.080
<v Speaker 1>ever made. Would you be willing to train all the

1:38:28.200 --> 1:38:32.040
<v Speaker 1>days from this day to that for one chats? Just

1:38:32.320 --> 1:38:36.840
<v Speaker 1>one chat? Still don black here until our enemies then

1:38:36.920 --> 1:38:43.599
<v Speaker 1>they may take on one, but they'll never take doesn't

1:38:43.640 --> 1:38:46.640
<v Speaker 1>get any better than that, folks. But anyway, Yeah, you know,

1:38:46.920 --> 1:38:49.880
<v Speaker 1>there was a time when great movies did win Oscars.

1:38:49.920 --> 1:38:52.200
<v Speaker 1>But this that it forget about for a second that

1:38:52.680 --> 1:38:55.920
<v Speaker 1>you know this SNL host and writer got dragged by

1:38:55.920 --> 1:38:59.679
<v Speaker 1>the Twitter social justice mob for a completely inocuous comment.

1:39:00.080 --> 1:39:04.920
<v Speaker 1>Expect craziness from them. Why why would this comment matter

1:39:05.040 --> 1:39:09.320
<v Speaker 1>so much? Why do they care so much about award shows?

1:39:09.360 --> 1:39:13.519
<v Speaker 1>Because clearly the progressive left and the social justice warriors

1:39:14.240 --> 1:39:18.439
<v Speaker 1>really do care about this issue. They really do care

1:39:18.479 --> 1:39:23.639
<v Speaker 1>that the Oscars continue to elevate movies about social justice

1:39:24.280 --> 1:39:27.160
<v Speaker 1>right whether and and the Emmys give as many awards

1:39:27.160 --> 1:39:32.560
<v Speaker 1>as possible to shows where there's an emphasis on transgender

1:39:32.640 --> 1:39:37.479
<v Speaker 1>issues and transgender rights and whatever. The particular issue of

1:39:37.520 --> 1:39:41.160
<v Speaker 1>the moment is for the left, they want to control

1:39:41.240 --> 1:39:44.680
<v Speaker 1>the culture, folks, and they want to be able to

1:39:44.840 --> 1:39:48.719
<v Speaker 1>use their control at the top to force feed us.

1:39:49.479 --> 1:39:53.240
<v Speaker 1>Aren't that is not good that we don't care to see.

1:39:53.520 --> 1:39:55.920
<v Speaker 1>But they have the levels of control and power to

1:39:56.080 --> 1:39:59.160
<v Speaker 1>make us sit and see it. In many cases, they

1:39:59.240 --> 1:40:02.880
<v Speaker 1>control the platforms, they control the distribution and the money

1:40:02.920 --> 1:40:08.320
<v Speaker 1>behind these projects, and by elevating this themselves and claiming

1:40:08.320 --> 1:40:12.280
<v Speaker 1>that it is fantastic, claiming there's some objective process here

1:40:12.320 --> 1:40:17.200
<v Speaker 1>by which their social justice infused artwork is the best.

1:40:18.560 --> 1:40:22.519
<v Speaker 1>That's how they justify the processes in place of making

1:40:22.560 --> 1:40:25.720
<v Speaker 1>sure that they determine what we see, how we see it,

1:40:25.760 --> 1:40:28.480
<v Speaker 1>when we see it. This is an issue of control

1:40:28.680 --> 1:40:31.519
<v Speaker 1>of the culture for them, and award shows are a

1:40:31.680 --> 1:40:37.920
<v Speaker 1>necessary laundering mechanism for liberalism to be pushed on all

1:40:38.120 --> 1:40:41.040
<v Speaker 1>of the rest of us, even when we don't want it.

1:40:53.520 --> 1:41:03.719
<v Speaker 1>The show ain't over yet, folks. It's time for roll call. Yes, indeed,

1:41:03.800 --> 1:41:05.680
<v Speaker 1>it is that part of the show. We get to

1:41:05.800 --> 1:41:08.200
<v Speaker 1>dive into all of the latest from you here in

1:41:09.000 --> 1:41:15.160
<v Speaker 1>roll call. Uh, let's see what we have here. First up,

1:41:15.400 --> 1:41:19.680
<v Speaker 1>Harry rides Hi buck Shield Hie. Catching up on podcasts.

1:41:19.720 --> 1:41:25.559
<v Speaker 1>I listened to the August segment on Facebook and big

1:41:25.600 --> 1:41:28.960
<v Speaker 1>banks sharing data. You discussed the scary Internet of things

1:41:28.960 --> 1:41:31.120
<v Speaker 1>that I laughed out loud when you launched an in

1:41:31.400 --> 1:41:35.120
<v Speaker 1>an intro for an ad for simply Safe. Oh my god. Well,

1:41:35.160 --> 1:41:36.719
<v Speaker 1>I can hope they have a very secure link between

1:41:36.760 --> 1:41:38.639
<v Speaker 1>your home and your phone. Here's you get another portal

1:41:38.640 --> 1:41:41.240
<v Speaker 1>of attack into our lives. No smart anything for me.

1:41:41.320 --> 1:41:44.240
<v Speaker 1>Even my phone is a very dumb flip phone. Count

1:41:44.280 --> 1:41:49.000
<v Speaker 1>me another proud Loodite, Harry. Well, Harry, Look, there's always

1:41:49.000 --> 1:41:52.080
<v Speaker 1>trade offs with technology when it comes to a possible

1:41:52.240 --> 1:41:54.360
<v Speaker 1>security vulnerability, right, I mean, if you're gonna use a

1:41:54.360 --> 1:41:56.559
<v Speaker 1>credit card, your credit card could get stolen. If you're

1:41:56.560 --> 1:42:00.400
<v Speaker 1>going to use a car, it's a lot safer to walk, right,

1:42:00.439 --> 1:42:02.479
<v Speaker 1>You're not going to run into a tree walking and die.

1:42:03.400 --> 1:42:07.040
<v Speaker 1>So we can't be completely closed off from the risks

1:42:07.560 --> 1:42:12.320
<v Speaker 1>that technology may pose. But I do think that in

1:42:12.360 --> 1:42:14.479
<v Speaker 1>the case, first of all, our our sponsors simply say,

1:42:14.479 --> 1:42:17.080
<v Speaker 1>if it's a billion dollar company and all they do

1:42:17.400 --> 1:42:19.200
<v Speaker 1>is not just figure out how to make sure that

1:42:19.240 --> 1:42:22.000
<v Speaker 1>all your stuff at home is safe, but also that

1:42:22.160 --> 1:42:24.760
<v Speaker 1>no one except for you will be able to access

1:42:25.160 --> 1:42:28.800
<v Speaker 1>anything that's there. But to be sure there there are

1:42:28.840 --> 1:42:32.920
<v Speaker 1>always going to be the possibilities of security risks with

1:42:33.000 --> 1:42:35.920
<v Speaker 1>any WiFi enabled device, and that's why you want to

1:42:35.960 --> 1:42:38.360
<v Speaker 1>want and have a company you really trust and to

1:42:38.720 --> 1:42:41.639
<v Speaker 1>just be aware at least of what some of those

1:42:42.080 --> 1:42:46.040
<v Speaker 1>issues could be. But indeed, Harry, I'm glad you've got

1:42:46.040 --> 1:42:49.320
<v Speaker 1>some amusement out of that. Ryan writes, yo buck love

1:42:49.400 --> 1:42:52.400
<v Speaker 1>the show. I was listening to Thursday's show and you

1:42:52.439 --> 1:42:56.400
<v Speaker 1>were talking about the media's new fixation on Trump's distaste

1:42:56.400 --> 1:42:58.960
<v Speaker 1>for dogs. You mentioned that you weren't a fan of

1:42:59.000 --> 1:43:02.519
<v Speaker 1>Obama's dogs and stated it was a golden doodle. First,

1:43:02.800 --> 1:43:06.280
<v Speaker 1>the Obama's had Portuguese water dogs. Apparently they were considering

1:43:06.320 --> 1:43:09.479
<v Speaker 1>a labor doodle. That's what I was thinking of until

1:43:09.520 --> 1:43:13.439
<v Speaker 1>the Telegraph said that labradoodles are not for presidents. Second,

1:43:13.600 --> 1:43:17.800
<v Speaker 1>you crossed a line when you dissed golden doodles. I

1:43:17.880 --> 1:43:20.559
<v Speaker 1>understand how some people see these new mixed breeds as

1:43:20.600 --> 1:43:23.680
<v Speaker 1>designer dogs, But if you love Golden Retrievers because of

1:43:23.680 --> 1:43:26.920
<v Speaker 1>their incredibly warm personality, and you want to reduce shedding.

1:43:27.040 --> 1:43:30.360
<v Speaker 1>You can't beat a golden doodle. They're great dogs. I'll

1:43:30.360 --> 1:43:32.719
<v Speaker 1>give you a one time pass on this one. Shields

1:43:32.800 --> 1:43:35.040
<v Speaker 1>high from Ryan or Ryan. You know, I'm gonna be

1:43:35.080 --> 1:43:37.840
<v Speaker 1>honest with you when it comes to golden Doodles. I

1:43:37.880 --> 1:43:40.800
<v Speaker 1>am somewhat judging a book by its cover because they

1:43:40.840 --> 1:43:43.880
<v Speaker 1>just look a little frou frou to me. But I

1:43:43.920 --> 1:43:47.720
<v Speaker 1>have never known one, so I'm kinda I'm kind of

1:43:47.760 --> 1:43:51.439
<v Speaker 1>being an anti golden doodle person without really having all

1:43:51.439 --> 1:43:53.320
<v Speaker 1>the full facts, so you know, let me think more.

1:43:53.520 --> 1:43:56.559
<v Speaker 1>Whereas Sharp Pay's I don't like because they haven't been

1:43:56.640 --> 1:43:58.439
<v Speaker 1>nice when I've met them. You know that there's some

1:43:58.520 --> 1:44:02.120
<v Speaker 1>dogs that you spend time around, you get a sense

1:44:02.160 --> 1:44:04.880
<v Speaker 1>real quickly of what's going on. I think I told

1:44:04.920 --> 1:44:08.440
<v Speaker 1>you all, by the way, about that story about the

1:44:08.520 --> 1:44:13.040
<v Speaker 1>uh the docks and who had the He was dragging

1:44:13.080 --> 1:44:16.760
<v Speaker 1>his earmuffs for for anybody under the age you know

1:44:16.840 --> 1:44:19.320
<v Speaker 1>of of being able to hear such things, but the

1:44:19.400 --> 1:44:22.040
<v Speaker 1>docks and was dragging his peep on the ground and

1:44:22.080 --> 1:44:23.760
<v Speaker 1>he was super old, and I lifted him up, and

1:44:23.760 --> 1:44:26.120
<v Speaker 1>he tried to bite my face off. I saw that

1:44:26.200 --> 1:44:30.000
<v Speaker 1>couple again who owned the docks and and or their

1:44:30.000 --> 1:44:32.360
<v Speaker 1>parents did at least, And they didn't even know that story.

1:44:32.400 --> 1:44:33.720
<v Speaker 1>And I told them, and they laughed a lot, and

1:44:33.760 --> 1:44:37.559
<v Speaker 1>they said, yeah, he has really bad back problems. And

1:44:37.640 --> 1:44:41.800
<v Speaker 1>he bites. Said yes, he indeed has back problems. And

1:44:41.840 --> 1:44:44.120
<v Speaker 1>he bites and he drags his little peep on the

1:44:44.160 --> 1:44:46.800
<v Speaker 1>ground because he's so low to the ground and so

1:44:46.840 --> 1:44:50.160
<v Speaker 1>old and and uh he looks so cute though, because

1:44:50.160 --> 1:44:52.320
<v Speaker 1>he doesn't look anyway I'm talking about the He's like

1:44:52.320 --> 1:44:54.160
<v Speaker 1>a sixteen year old docks and or something. It's the

1:44:54.200 --> 1:44:58.120
<v Speaker 1>oldest looking dog I've ever seen. Uh. Anyway, Molly felt

1:44:58.120 --> 1:44:59.880
<v Speaker 1>so bad for him. She's like, look what he's dragging

1:45:00.120 --> 1:45:02.800
<v Speaker 1>the crowd. I said, well, you know that would put

1:45:02.840 --> 1:45:04.840
<v Speaker 1>me in a bad mood too, honey, So I can

1:45:04.880 --> 1:45:09.040
<v Speaker 1>kind of understand. Uh. Next up here we have Erica,

1:45:09.080 --> 1:45:11.800
<v Speaker 1>who rights I have left over metro cards from our

1:45:11.920 --> 1:45:14.160
<v Speaker 1>d C trip. Shoot me a mailing address. I'll send

1:45:14.160 --> 1:45:16.320
<v Speaker 1>them to you. A figure having extra cards will be

1:45:16.360 --> 1:45:18.840
<v Speaker 1>helpful when you have visitors. Erica, that's very sweet of you,

1:45:19.080 --> 1:45:20.680
<v Speaker 1>but keep them for when you come to d C

1:45:21.320 --> 1:45:24.800
<v Speaker 1>the next time around. I also think Erica probably now

1:45:24.920 --> 1:45:27.080
<v Speaker 1>because of all of my gotta keep it lights on

1:45:27.160 --> 1:45:29.439
<v Speaker 1>and the Freedom Hut Talk is trying to help me

1:45:29.479 --> 1:45:31.880
<v Speaker 1>out a little bit, which, hey, you know, all the

1:45:31.880 --> 1:45:34.040
<v Speaker 1>help I can get is is great. But do keep

1:45:34.080 --> 1:45:40.599
<v Speaker 1>your cards for the next time that you are in town. Jenna, Yes, truth,

1:45:40.840 --> 1:45:43.880
<v Speaker 1>You're right on good shows this week. I really appreciated

1:45:43.920 --> 1:45:46.840
<v Speaker 1>Tuesday Night's insights into the history of fascism and communism

1:45:46.840 --> 1:45:50.640
<v Speaker 1>and antifa. I recently read Liberal Fascism, as you've recommended,

1:45:50.880 --> 1:45:54.479
<v Speaker 1>very relevant keep speaking truth. Well, I'm so glad you

1:45:54.560 --> 1:45:58.200
<v Speaker 1>enjoyed it. And look, it's Jonah Goldberg's finest work in

1:45:58.240 --> 1:46:01.400
<v Speaker 1>my opinion, It's a really ex o in book, Liberal Fascism.

1:46:02.160 --> 1:46:04.320
<v Speaker 1>So I'm glad you enjoyed that. And I try to

1:46:04.320 --> 1:46:07.959
<v Speaker 1>get into as much of the back story and history

1:46:08.080 --> 1:46:11.840
<v Speaker 1>here on the show as I can, something that I

1:46:11.880 --> 1:46:16.320
<v Speaker 1>think is very important. So appreciate, appreciate your your kind note.

1:46:17.520 --> 1:46:21.719
<v Speaker 1>Here we go, um Peter writes in response to Andrew

1:46:21.800 --> 1:46:26.000
<v Speaker 1>Cuomo's America was never that great comment. America will reach

1:46:26.040 --> 1:46:29.520
<v Speaker 1>greatness when we get rid of people that use discrimination

1:46:29.520 --> 1:46:32.160
<v Speaker 1>and stereotyping of conservatives who have no place in the

1:46:32.200 --> 1:46:35.600
<v Speaker 1>state of New York. His own words, just readjusted to

1:46:35.640 --> 1:46:38.040
<v Speaker 1>show the blatant bias against the people who make up

1:46:38.120 --> 1:46:41.519
<v Speaker 1>most of the area of New York State. He's not welcome,

1:46:41.600 --> 1:46:43.760
<v Speaker 1>nor does he stand for the people in upstate New

1:46:43.840 --> 1:46:49.240
<v Speaker 1>York minus Syracuse and Albany. In he won only twelve counties,

1:46:49.680 --> 1:46:53.120
<v Speaker 1>but an NYC contains the highest population of the state,

1:46:53.880 --> 1:46:57.599
<v Speaker 1>giving him the wind shields high. Keep up the good fight.

1:46:58.560 --> 1:47:03.519
<v Speaker 1>Nobody cares about winning those twelve counties because Cuomo only

1:47:03.680 --> 1:47:08.240
<v Speaker 1>needs to win the battle in the media eyes. But no,

1:47:08.400 --> 1:47:11.080
<v Speaker 1>you are correct, Peter oh Also, he writes, forgot to

1:47:11.120 --> 1:47:14.120
<v Speaker 1>mention one reason Hillary would send only hard copies of

1:47:14.120 --> 1:47:16.160
<v Speaker 1>the emails is that it's very easy to use the

1:47:16.200 --> 1:47:19.760
<v Speaker 1>font color option in a document to change certain characters

1:47:19.760 --> 1:47:22.120
<v Speaker 1>that one would want to be unseen, and select font

1:47:22.160 --> 1:47:25.679
<v Speaker 1>color white, which does not appear on print but can

1:47:25.720 --> 1:47:28.320
<v Speaker 1>be retrieved very easily. Think of how CEI director David

1:47:28.360 --> 1:47:32.719
<v Speaker 1>Portrays and Broadwell used draft copy and a shared Gmail accounts,

1:47:32.720 --> 1:47:36.400
<v Speaker 1>so there was no trace when deleted. Uh. I don't

1:47:36.400 --> 1:47:38.559
<v Speaker 1>know anything about any of that, Peter, but that was

1:47:38.680 --> 1:47:43.560
<v Speaker 1>certainly interesting. Thank you for thank you for writing um

1:47:43.680 --> 1:47:46.599
<v Speaker 1>John writes, I have noticed I haven't seen a post

1:47:46.600 --> 1:47:50.120
<v Speaker 1>from you in months hashtag silenced. Well, you know, John,

1:47:50.720 --> 1:47:53.400
<v Speaker 1>I've i people listen to the show. No, I've been

1:47:53.400 --> 1:47:57.720
<v Speaker 1>worried about social media censorship for years now. Uh. And

1:47:57.760 --> 1:47:59.719
<v Speaker 1>there are there's clear there is a left wing bias.

1:47:59.760 --> 1:48:04.040
<v Speaker 1>There meeting, there's a left wing bias. And you know

1:48:04.600 --> 1:48:09.719
<v Speaker 1>that's that's just something we're gonna have to figure out now. Uh, Dennis,

1:48:10.520 --> 1:48:12.920
<v Speaker 1>right book. I listened five days a week. I'm a fan.

1:48:13.840 --> 1:48:16.800
<v Speaker 1>When you change your voice to mimic Adobe liberal, it

1:48:16.880 --> 1:48:20.679
<v Speaker 1>sounds like fingernails on a chalkboard. I know this sounds petty,

1:48:20.720 --> 1:48:22.680
<v Speaker 1>but maybe if other fans are also mentioned this, you

1:48:22.760 --> 1:48:24.880
<v Speaker 1>might be mindful and not try to do that as much.

1:48:24.880 --> 1:48:27.000
<v Speaker 1>Other than that, I'm all in. I'm glad you're out

1:48:27.000 --> 1:48:32.400
<v Speaker 1>there in radio land. Dennis. Appreciate the uh, the constructive criticism,

1:48:32.439 --> 1:48:34.599
<v Speaker 1>and you know, it's always a balancing act. I can

1:48:34.600 --> 1:48:36.599
<v Speaker 1>tell you that a few times when I went on,

1:48:37.080 --> 1:48:39.200
<v Speaker 1>when I filled in for Rush Limball in the earlier

1:48:39.280 --> 1:48:41.759
<v Speaker 1>days of my career. You know, I'm at that huge

1:48:41.840 --> 1:48:44.920
<v Speaker 1>Rush Limball Mike. It's just a pretty incredible experience to

1:48:44.920 --> 1:48:48.320
<v Speaker 1>reach that many people at a radio or with a

1:48:48.400 --> 1:48:52.560
<v Speaker 1>radio Mike and I would get afterwards, especially if I

1:48:52.600 --> 1:48:57.240
<v Speaker 1>did like Kassa Vilhelm Wilhelm de Blasio. Yeah, kutent talk,

1:48:58.000 --> 1:48:59.920
<v Speaker 1>and I would do this whole you know, because build

1:48:59.920 --> 1:49:03.559
<v Speaker 1>a Blasio's real name is Kaiser Wilhelm. That or it

1:49:03.640 --> 1:49:05.760
<v Speaker 1>wasn't Kaiser well and pardon me, it's Warren Wilhelm. It

1:49:05.840 --> 1:49:08.960
<v Speaker 1>was not actually pardon me, it was not actually Kaiser Wilhelm.

1:49:08.960 --> 1:49:12.439
<v Speaker 1>And I would get a hundred messages saying, oh my gosh,

1:49:12.479 --> 1:49:15.720
<v Speaker 1>you're build the Blasio thing was hilarious. You need to

1:49:15.760 --> 1:49:18.360
<v Speaker 1>do that like every show, all the time. And I

1:49:18.400 --> 1:49:23.240
<v Speaker 1>would get you know, let's say thirty messages that were like,

1:49:23.320 --> 1:49:26.320
<v Speaker 1>I love your entire show except for build the Blasio stuff.

1:49:26.400 --> 1:49:29.320
<v Speaker 1>Don't do that again, or I won't listen. And I

1:49:29.360 --> 1:49:31.040
<v Speaker 1>would sit there and say, okay, well, you know what

1:49:31.080 --> 1:49:33.120
<v Speaker 1>do I do? Now? You know, it's it's always a

1:49:33.120 --> 1:49:35.680
<v Speaker 1>little bit of a balancing act and radio you just

1:49:35.800 --> 1:49:38.960
<v Speaker 1>end up going with what you think, you know feels

1:49:39.080 --> 1:49:42.000
<v Speaker 1>right with you, and then you you're trying adjust based

1:49:42.080 --> 1:49:44.240
<v Speaker 1>on the sense you can get from the audience. But

1:49:44.880 --> 1:49:47.240
<v Speaker 1>there's no there's no perfect dance with that. That said, Dennis,

1:49:47.640 --> 1:49:51.080
<v Speaker 1>I'll try to make sure that I strike a better balance.

1:49:51.160 --> 1:49:56.559
<v Speaker 1>I appreciate the constructive criticism. Monty rights Buck, So glad

1:49:56.560 --> 1:49:59.000
<v Speaker 1>you had Dan Bongino in the Freedom Hut, my two

1:49:59.040 --> 1:50:02.200
<v Speaker 1>favorite podcast. I listen to your show on podcast form.

1:50:02.280 --> 1:50:05.360
<v Speaker 1>Dan's enthusiasm and energy means I start my daily walk

1:50:05.560 --> 1:50:09.920
<v Speaker 1>with my Chabrador a Lab Chow mix listening to Dan.

1:50:10.040 --> 1:50:12.080
<v Speaker 1>Then it's Buck after I go on duty. Thanks for

1:50:12.160 --> 1:50:16.759
<v Speaker 1>keeping us informed and entertained. Well, thank you for for listening.

1:50:16.800 --> 1:50:18.920
<v Speaker 1>And yeah, Dan is a great guy. I've known Dan

1:50:18.960 --> 1:50:21.800
<v Speaker 1>in this business. Gosh, it's crazy, and I started thinking

1:50:21.800 --> 1:50:24.080
<v Speaker 1>about this now I've I've I think I've known Dan

1:50:24.120 --> 1:50:29.439
<v Speaker 1>Bongino for at least six years now, so we we

1:50:29.479 --> 1:50:32.559
<v Speaker 1>go back quite a ways. Um, he's either a great

1:50:32.600 --> 1:50:34.800
<v Speaker 1>guy and I'm very happy for him for all of

1:50:34.800 --> 1:50:37.400
<v Speaker 1>his success, richly deserved. I mean, he's a guy out

1:50:37.439 --> 1:50:41.080
<v Speaker 1>there who's just making it happen by making a really

1:50:41.080 --> 1:50:44.280
<v Speaker 1>good product and drawing in people that want to listen,

1:50:44.960 --> 1:50:49.479
<v Speaker 1>you know, I you know, the Bongino model, Shapiro, some

1:50:49.600 --> 1:50:51.240
<v Speaker 1>of the people who are out there now who are

1:50:51.280 --> 1:50:55.760
<v Speaker 1>just building these really you know, these these massive audiences

1:50:56.400 --> 1:51:00.160
<v Speaker 1>without having a huge traditional platform. I just think I

1:51:00.160 --> 1:51:04.040
<v Speaker 1>think that's so good for the national political conversation. I

1:51:04.040 --> 1:51:07.639
<v Speaker 1>think it's so good for conservatism something we're doing here too.

1:51:07.680 --> 1:51:09.680
<v Speaker 1>Of course, although I do have a lot of terrestrial,

1:51:10.680 --> 1:51:13.400
<v Speaker 1>wonderful terrestrial affiliates, over a hundred and twenty of them,

1:51:13.439 --> 1:51:15.640
<v Speaker 1>So that is a that is a traditional platform. I

1:51:15.640 --> 1:51:17.639
<v Speaker 1>can't pretend that I don't have a traditional platform. I've

1:51:17.640 --> 1:51:21.040
<v Speaker 1>got a great one. But the the digital platforms that

1:51:21.080 --> 1:51:25.000
<v Speaker 1>people are building, Dan Bongino high up on that list,

1:51:25.080 --> 1:51:29.640
<v Speaker 1>are really really impressive. Uh, Brian writes buck heard you

1:51:29.680 --> 1:51:34.360
<v Speaker 1>mentioned mistakes in speech like intensive purposes. Another good one

1:51:34.439 --> 1:51:37.960
<v Speaker 1>is irregardless, no such word. My problem is the one
