1
00:00:01,360 --> 00:00:06,880
Speaker 1: Would Hunter Biden be in jail years ago if he

2
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:11,080
Speaker 1: were a Republican. Well, that is exactly what Ronda Santis,

3
00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:13,920
Speaker 1: Florida governor and now candidate for President of the United

4
00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:17,720
Speaker 1: States of America, has said, saying, Look, the federal investigation

5
00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:20,040
Speaker 1: of Hunter Biden is now in its fifth year, and

6
00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:23,440
Speaker 1: there is no doubt that if Hunter Biden were a Republican,

7
00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:28,360
Speaker 1: he'd already be in prison. Roda Santis is making it

8
00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:31,960
Speaker 1: clear what he thinks about this federal investigation to the

9
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:36,199
Speaker 1: president's son, the Florida governor who announced he is in

10
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:40,520
Speaker 1: this race, officially made the comments during a campaign stop

11
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:45,519
Speaker 1: in Iowa. When asked about weaponize bureaucracy in Washington, d c.

12
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:49,159
Speaker 1: He said, quote, we have a bureaucracy that our founding

13
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:55,880
Speaker 1: fathers would find unrecognizable. It's an unaccountable, weaponized administrative state

14
00:00:56,520 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 1: that unevenly wields authority depending on its target, two different

15
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:03,560
Speaker 1: sets of rules, depending on whether you're a member in

16
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:06,720
Speaker 1: good standing of the elite society or not. He continued,

17
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 1: saying this, if Hunter were Republican, he would have been

18
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:14,600
Speaker 1: in jail years ago. Now, this investigation has been taking

19
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:17,679
Speaker 1: a long time, and Republicans in the House are asking

20
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:21,360
Speaker 1: now a lot of questions. One of the people that's

21
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:26,200
Speaker 1: demanding answers is James Comer. James Comer is now threatening

22
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:30,560
Speaker 1: to hold the FBI Director, Christopher Ray in contempt for

23
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:36,759
Speaker 1: not producing Hunter Biden documents. Now, these documents are extremely important,

24
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:39,600
Speaker 1: and I want you to hear what was said on

25
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 1: Fox News about this with Jonathan Turley and the background

26
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 1: of why they want these documents.

27
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 2: Arthel.

28
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 3: We are now just two days away from a major

29
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:52,560
Speaker 3: meeting about the Biden family business dealings. FBI Director Christopher

30
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 3: Ray is set to speak with houseover sde Committee Chairman

31
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 3: James Comer on Wednesday, that is, one day after the

32
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 3: deadline that Comer gave him to share an internal document.

33
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 3: A whistleblower claims that the document shows then Vice President

34
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 3: Biden was involved in a criminal scheme.

35
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 2: With a foreign national.

36
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:12,799
Speaker 3: For more on this, joining us now is Jonathan Turley,

37
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:16,760
Speaker 3: Bock News contributor and a g w U law professor

38
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 3: and a constitutional law attorney. Jonathan, thanks for your time today.

39
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 3: So look, this make is going to happen on Wednesday,

40
00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:27,800
Speaker 3: right after James Comer and Republicans were potentially pitching the

41
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 3: idea of holding Christopher Ray in contempt of Congress if

42
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:33,360
Speaker 3: he didn't start cooperating. What do you think is going

43
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,080
Speaker 3: to come out of this meeting, if anything.

44
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 4: Well, most expectations is that Ray is going to hold

45
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:42,680
Speaker 4: the line and resist revealing this document. Their argument is

46
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 4: that this document contains the type of raw allegations that

47
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:51,080
Speaker 4: come over the transom or through sources, sometimes anonymous sources.

48
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:54,240
Speaker 4: The problem with the FBI's position is that it is

49
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:58,640
Speaker 4: also being investigated that One of the concerns among many

50
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:01,240
Speaker 4: in the American people is that they believe that the

51
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:06,200
Speaker 4: FBI has been politically compromised for years, and polls indicate

52
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:09,880
Speaker 4: that that is not changing. And whether you agree with

53
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 4: that or not, it suggests that your approach needs to change.

54
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 4: That is the only way to reverse those numbers is

55
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:22,079
Speaker 4: to give greater transparency. There's another issue here that supports Congress.

56
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 4: You know, yes, the FBI investigates crime, but one of

57
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 4: the functions of the Congress in oversight is to look

58
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:33,359
Speaker 4: at corruption that includes things that may not be criminal

59
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:37,640
Speaker 4: but are corrupt. Influence peddling is the favorite form of

60
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 4: corruption in Washington, and in this case, the Bidens have

61
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 4: been accused of millions of dollars coming from foreign interests,

62
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 4: some closely associated with foreign intelligence. This document's part of

63
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 4: that investigation. I think that raise got to look at

64
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 4: that context and say, this is not the usual you know,

65
00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 4: push and shove from Congress. There's a need here to

66
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 4: be more transparent.

67
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 1: There's a need here to be more transparent. The question

68
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 1: is will he be more transparent now. James Comber has

69
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 1: made it clear he's not putting up with this partisanism

70
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:18,680
Speaker 1: any longer, and the chairman of the US House Oversight

71
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 1: Committee said this week that he is beginning the proceedings

72
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 1: to hold the FBI Director Christopher Ray, in contempt of

73
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 1: Congress for not producing a memo that is related to

74
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:34,240
Speaker 1: the agency's investigation into President Joe Biden. Comber said the

75
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 1: FBI's decision to withhold the document is unacceptable after he

76
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 1: was told about it through a whistleblower, saying, quote today,

77
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 1: the FBI informed the committee that it will not provide

78
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:49,360
Speaker 1: the unclassified documents. So these aren't even classified. These are

79
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 1: unclassified documents subpoenaed by the committee, basically saying subpoena by Congress.

80
00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,440
Speaker 1: The FBI's decision to stiff arm Congress and hide the

81
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 1: ass in firm from the American people is obstructionists and unacceptable. Now,

82
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 1: the House Oversight Committee has already been investigating President Biden,

83
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 1: and I want to be clear about how I describe

84
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,960
Speaker 1: that President Biden. Yes, they're looking at his son's business

85
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:19,279
Speaker 1: dealings in China, but they're looking at really whether President

86
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 1: Biden illegally or unethically benefited from these multi million dollar

87
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 1: transactions and his compromise because of them with different countries

88
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:35,599
Speaker 1: that can include China, Russia, the list, Romania, Ukraine, the

89
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:39,680
Speaker 1: list goes on and on. Quote. While I have a

90
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 1: call scheduled with FBI Director Ray to discuss his response further.

91
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,719
Speaker 1: The Committee has been clear and its intent to protect

92
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:52,359
Speaker 1: Congressional oversight authority and will now be taking steps to

93
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 1: hold the FBI director in contempt of Congress for refusing

94
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 1: to comply with a lawful subpoena America deserves the truth

95
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:03,040
Speaker 1: in The Overite Committee will continue to demand transparency from

96
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 1: the nation's chief law enforcement agency. Now. Last month, James

97
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,720
Speaker 1: Comber said the committee was investigating not one, not two,

98
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:12,920
Speaker 1: not three, not four, not five, not six, not seven,

99
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,840
Speaker 1: not eight, but nine Biden family members. Now let me

100
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:19,680
Speaker 1: be clear, he said, the committee is investigating, We're not

101
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 1: naming nine that benefited financially that we know about from

102
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 1: these suspicious activity reports. He's now saying that they are

103
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 1: investigating the nine Biden family members after they received more

104
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:36,799
Speaker 1: of the financial documents from the Treasury Department. James Comer

105
00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,520
Speaker 1: says the large sums were transferred from at least one

106
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:43,760
Speaker 1: Chinese communist company that ended up in bank accounts controlled

107
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 1: by the Biden Nexus, saying, quote, thousands of pages of

108
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:54,920
Speaker 1: financial records related to the Biden family, their companies and associates,

109
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,720
Speaker 1: and the business schemes were made available to members of

110
00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:02,200
Speaker 1: the House Committee on Oversit in Account which confirm the

111
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:06,279
Speaker 1: importance of this investigation. Comer went on to say, now

112
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 1: this is the reason why, and I go back to

113
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 1: Ronda Santis here. He understands that this is an election

114
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:17,440
Speaker 1: your issue. He understands that it's important for this to

115
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 1: take place in a move forward. He also understands how

116
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:24,920
Speaker 1: corrupt everything has been, and this is exactly why. The

117
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:28,800
Speaker 1: former Attorney General Bill Barr said on Saturday at an

118
00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:31,960
Speaker 1: event that the Hunter Biden, the son of the President

119
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:35,080
Speaker 1: Joe Biden, is likely to face serious charges stemming from

120
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:38,920
Speaker 1: a Department of Justice probe. The DOJ has conducted a

121
00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:42,280
Speaker 1: year long investigate, years long, four year and five year

122
00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 1: long investigation on Hunter Biden for alleged tax offenses and

123
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 1: making false statements while purchasing a firearm. Barr, who was

124
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 1: serving as the AG when the investigation began, provided his

125
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 1: perspective on the investigation during an appearance on CBS News.

126
00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:02,040
Speaker 1: Barsity suspects a recent meeting between federal PROSSUS Delaware authorities

127
00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:06,280
Speaker 1: and Hunter Biden's attorneys indicate that the DOJ officials are

128
00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 1: nearing a charging decision in that case. There's probably been

129
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:12,680
Speaker 1: a lot of hand ringing in many different places, but

130
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 1: I assume that the defense went in there to try

131
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:18,080
Speaker 1: to see what they think would be a way to

132
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:22,239
Speaker 1: resolve this without serious charges against Hunter Biden, Bill Bar said,

133
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 1: I suspect they're going to be unsuccessful, quote unquote. Barr

134
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:29,520
Speaker 1: also added that the case is likely taking a longer

135
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:33,160
Speaker 1: time because the tax case against the President sun is complicated,

136
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 1: especially after they fired everybody that was investigating it, removed

137
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:40,560
Speaker 1: them from it at the IRS. It requires work from

138
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 1: the IRS side, but also because the DOJ could be

139
00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 1: probing the allegations of corruption lobbied against Hunter Biden by Republicans.

140
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 1: In addition to the DOJ probe, we also know that

141
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 1: Hunter Biden is facing legal scrutiny from House Republicans over

142
00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:01,920
Speaker 1: his foreign business dealings. GOP lawmakers have said that his

143
00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:06,480
Speaker 1: business dealings with foreign companies, including some associated with directly

144
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 1: with the CCP Chinese Communist Party while his father served

145
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:13,200
Speaker 1: as a vice president from twenty and nine to twenty

146
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:20,360
Speaker 1: seventeen under Barack Obama, should face investigations over their alleged corruption. Quote.

147
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:25,360
Speaker 1: Bar said he shares concerns about abuses of power conducted

148
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 1: by Hunter Biden, but ultimately question whether he would ultimately

149
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:31,320
Speaker 1: be found guilty in a court of law, saying this,

150
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 1: there's a difference between abuse of power, shameful behavior when

151
00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 1: you're in power and so forth, and something that can

152
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,880
Speaker 1: actually be proven as a crime. Bar said, I joined

153
00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 1: the conclusion that there was a lot of shameful self

154
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:46,080
Speaker 1: dealing and influence pedaling and so forth. I think the

155
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,960
Speaker 1: American people should take note that should be explained and

156
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:51,120
Speaker 1: shown to the American people. The questions whether you can

157
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 1: prove a crime is a different matter, which is exactly

158
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 1: why By the way, House Republicans are not focusing in

159
00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:01,920
Speaker 1: on Hunter Biden, using in on the president of the

160
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:05,400
Speaker 1: United States of America, because really that's where the real

161
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:10,679
Speaker 1: crimes were being committed. Now you understand their strategy. Now,

162
00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:12,520
Speaker 1: before I get into more of this story, I want

183
00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:29,480
Speaker 1: It's pretty clear that James Comer is not messing around,

184
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 1: and he also explained to us why he wants this

185
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 1: piece of paper. It's not classified that the FBI Director

186
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 1: Christopher Ray is refusing to turn over. Now, the intel

187
00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:43,280
Speaker 1: they have to even know to ask for this piece

188
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:46,200
Speaker 1: of paper was from a whistleblower. Here's what he had

189
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 1: to say on Fox News Channel with Sean Hannity. Listen.

190
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:53,599
Speaker 5: So, but the ten twenty three is a confidential informant

191
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:55,720
Speaker 5: that would give information that they would take it. Maybe

192
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:59,079
Speaker 5: it's not fully corroborated. Now, the question is did they

193
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:00,360
Speaker 5: do a full investment.

194
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,320
Speaker 2: Mitigation A and B.

195
00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:06,720
Speaker 5: And secondly, if they feel or fear that this may

196
00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 5: be made public, I'm sure you would agree to see

197
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,440
Speaker 5: it in a skiff or a private setting. Would that

198
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 5: be fair?

199
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:17,199
Speaker 2: That would be fair. But it's not classified.

200
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:21,320
Speaker 6: So their argument that says they don't want to out

201
00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:21,880
Speaker 6: their inform it.

202
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:23,559
Speaker 2: I agree with that one hundred percent.

203
00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:26,760
Speaker 6: There's a process in Washington tend to prevent that, and

204
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:30,319
Speaker 6: that's called redacting the name of the informant. That solves

205
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:35,559
Speaker 6: that if the informant's claim isn't legitimate, then again, why

206
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,920
Speaker 6: are they worried about the informant? Look, we learned something

207
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:43,679
Speaker 6: during the second conversation we had with people representing the FBA,

208
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:45,439
Speaker 6: when they came in to talk to my staff.

209
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 2: We our specific request.

210
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:51,400
Speaker 6: First of all, said we want any form ten twenty

211
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:55,360
Speaker 6: three dated in August twenty twenty with the word Biden

212
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:57,720
Speaker 6: on it. And you know what they came back and said, Sean,

213
00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,559
Speaker 6: They said, well, that would just be too many documents.

214
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:04,760
Speaker 6: We can't positively prepare all that. So you know a

215
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:07,640
Speaker 6: lot of bulb costen. What do you mean how many

216
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:11,880
Speaker 6: ten twenty threes are there with the word Biden just

217
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 6: for one month in twenty twenty.

218
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:15,679
Speaker 2: Now, this is what we found with.

219
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:19,679
Speaker 6: The Treasury with the suspicious activity ports. There were hundreds

220
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:24,720
Speaker 6: of these indicating potential wrongdoing of the bidens with respect

221
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:29,000
Speaker 6: to financial transactions. Now, the way that I understood the FBI,

222
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 6: there are multiple FOURM, ten twenty threes pertaining to Biden,

223
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:36,440
Speaker 6: So we had to narrow the focus to say, okay,

224
00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:40,160
Speaker 6: Biden and the word five million dollars.

225
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 1: So let's just sit back and recap this for a moment.

226
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:48,080
Speaker 1: The Justice Department does not deny the existence of this record.

227
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:52,520
Speaker 1: The Justice Department says there's too many records that deal

228
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:55,840
Speaker 1: with the Bidens during one month of a certain year,

229
00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:58,080
Speaker 1: which is shocking in itself. So they had to go

230
00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:00,680
Speaker 1: back and say, do you have any documents with Biden

231
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:05,079
Speaker 1: and have five million involved? And that is exactly why

232
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:09,360
Speaker 1: Comer says the FBI informed the committee that it will

233
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:13,400
Speaker 1: not provide the unclassified documents subpoened by the committee and

234
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:16,240
Speaker 1: the FBI's decision to stiff arm Congress and hide this

235
00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:20,840
Speaker 1: information for the American people as obstruction is and unacceptable. Now,

236
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,920
Speaker 1: James Comer and Chris Ray do have a phone call

237
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 1: that is supposed to take place today. Comer was asked

238
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:33,120
Speaker 1: about that, right, will you proceed to hold the FBI

239
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:36,640
Speaker 1: and condemned to Congress or if you talk to him,

240
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,440
Speaker 1: what's going to happen. Listen to his answer on that.

241
00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,960
Speaker 5: So you're going to hold direct Array in contempt. Is

242
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 5: that what you said, even though you have a scheduled

243
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:47,240
Speaker 5: call with them, Where does it stand tonight?

244
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:49,680
Speaker 2: Well, today was the deadline.

245
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:53,800
Speaker 6: He was given three weeks to produce a document and

246
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 6: go into detail on what exactly they did to investigate

247
00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:01,920
Speaker 6: the validity of the document. But thus far he won't

248
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:04,960
Speaker 6: even admit that they have the document. Sean, he's given

249
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:07,760
Speaker 6: us the run around for three weeks. He's just stalling.

250
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,960
Speaker 6: He said, there's good faith effort. They haven't produced anything.

251
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 6: They haven't even admitted they have a document, So we

252
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 6: don't have confidence and Director Array. We're already in the

253
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:21,400
Speaker 6: process of drafting legislation to hold an Oversight Committee mark

254
00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:26,280
Speaker 6: up next week to hold FBI Director Ray in contempt

255
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:26,840
Speaker 6: of Congress.

256
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:30,320
Speaker 1: I don't blame him for this. Yeah, if you're going

257
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:33,480
Speaker 1: to have a phone call with him, fine, But thousands

258
00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:35,720
Speaker 1: of pages of financial records right of the Biden family,

259
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:38,360
Speaker 1: their comings and associate and their business schemes that have

260
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:40,600
Speaker 1: been made available to Congress. They're finding stuff. Now you

261
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:42,680
Speaker 1: got a whistleblower saying hey, you don't have it all.

262
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:44,640
Speaker 1: Then they go to the FBI and they say, hey,

263
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:47,960
Speaker 1: we need to look at this piece of paper, right,

264
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:50,640
Speaker 1: and they say, no, we're not going to give it

265
00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 1: to you. It's not even classified. Don't care because they're

266
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:57,760
Speaker 1: protecting the Biden crime family. In other words, who gives

267
00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:00,520
Speaker 1: a crap if the FBI director has a scheduled phone

268
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:04,280
Speaker 1: call with the House Oversite Committee Chairman James Comber discussed

269
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:08,120
Speaker 1: the informant file. The informant file that allegedly accuses President

270
00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 1: Biden of being part of a five million dollar bribery scheme.

271
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 1: Your response to subpoenas due by May thirtieth. You missed

272
00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:17,640
Speaker 1: the deadline, right, So fine, I'll take your phone call,

273
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,760
Speaker 1: but you missed the deadline. We sent you a subpoena

274
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:24,080
Speaker 1: for the information on May third, after the whistleblower contact

275
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:27,680
Speaker 1: to Center Chuck Grassley about the document said to have

276
00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:31,440
Speaker 1: been created or modified on June thirtieth of twenty twenty.

277
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:36,280
Speaker 1: The FBI last week releasing confidential source information could quote

278
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:41,080
Speaker 1: jeopardize potentially investigations and put lives at risk potentially. I

279
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:43,440
Speaker 1: love the FBI. At least they're consistent, right, can't show

280
00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:47,120
Speaker 1: you might someone might die. The FBI remains committed to

281
00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:50,600
Speaker 1: cooperating with Congress's oversight requests on this matter and others,

282
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:55,080
Speaker 1: as we always have. House Speaker Kevin McCarthy also attempted

283
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:58,160
Speaker 1: to help mediate the dispute with a May nineteenth call

284
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:03,320
Speaker 1: to Christopher Ray said afterwards he thought the Bureau would comply, saying, quote,

285
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 1: the fbis continue to tie itself in k nots to

286
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:11,359
Speaker 1: ignore a legitimate subpoena from Congress, which has a constitutional

287
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:15,439
Speaker 1: duty of oversight. That's what Chuck Grassley said last week.

288
00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:21,879
Speaker 1: The bureaus developed a serious reputation problem through its spats

289
00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:26,160
Speaker 1: of failure and overreach, and leadership is going doing itself

290
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:29,359
Speaker 1: no favors by attempting to stiff arm Congress again. The

291
00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:34,160
Speaker 1: longtime sinator said he's angry because exquissleb or Protection Caucus

292
00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:38,480
Speaker 1: co chairman, it understands these people are putting their careers

293
00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:41,800
Speaker 1: at risk every time they are forced to come forward.

294
00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:45,800
Speaker 1: The FBI knows exactly what document Chairman Comber and I

295
00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:48,960
Speaker 1: are seeking, and if they know us at all, they

296
00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:51,760
Speaker 1: know we will get it one way or another. If

297
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:57,280
Speaker 1: FBI leadership truly cares about protecting the agency's reputation, they'd cooperate.

298
00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:00,480
Speaker 1: James Comer in the House side grass on the Senate

299
00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:04,919
Speaker 1: side have not publicly discussed major details of bribery allegation,

300
00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:10,800
Speaker 1: such as specifying which country or US policy decisions were

301
00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:16,200
Speaker 1: involved or manipulated due to the payoff. Congress, by the way,

302
00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:20,879
Speaker 1: has many tools to force the executive branch agencies that

303
00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:25,480
Speaker 1: comply with subpoenas, including litigation and withholding funding. In addition

304
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:28,919
Speaker 1: to contempt votes, which generally are used to shame subjects,

305
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:35,399
Speaker 1: it's possible for lawmakers to impeach officials like Christopher Ray. During,

306
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:39,400
Speaker 1: by the way, the immediate after math of the vice presidency,

307
00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:42,919
Speaker 1: Joe Biden interacted with his son Hunter Biden and his

308
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:47,840
Speaker 1: brother James Biden's associates in China, Mexico, Kazakhstan, Russia, Ukraine,

309
00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:52,199
Speaker 1: Romania that according to files from Hunter Biden's laptop, he

310
00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:54,359
Speaker 1: even appeared to be penciled in for a ten percent

311
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:57,720
Speaker 1: cut of the Chinese government link age energy deal under

312
00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:00,719
Speaker 1: negotiation seventeen that didn't pay out until right after he

313
00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:06,000
Speaker 1: left the Vice presidential office. You've got to understand here,

314
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:10,399
Speaker 1: we've got whistleblowers who now feel comfortable to come forward.

315
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:15,199
Speaker 1: We have the irs whistleblower, Gary Shapley, who oversaw the

316
00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 1: tax fraud investigation of Hunter Biden since twenty twenty. He

317
00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:22,400
Speaker 1: testified Friday to the Housewaves and Means Committee about alleged

318
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:26,800
Speaker 1: preferential treatment in the five year old investigation. The primary

319
00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:29,600
Speaker 1: IRS case agent on that investigation since it opened in

320
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:33,199
Speaker 1: eighteen came forward last week to back up his boss

321
00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:35,560
Speaker 1: after the IRS I May the fifteenth to remove the

322
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 1: thirteen people that were investigating. They were the thirteen person

323
00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:46,199
Speaker 1: investigative team in alleged retribution for him contacting Congress. FBI

324
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:49,560
Speaker 1: agents assigned to the investigation also reportedly are frustrated by

325
00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:52,400
Speaker 1: the lack of charges after computing most of their work

326
00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:55,880
Speaker 1: on the case, not this year, but last year. Time

327
00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:59,000
Speaker 1: and time again. The Democrats keep winning. And the reason

328
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:01,719
Speaker 1: why is because they never are held accountable and they

329
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:05,080
Speaker 1: apparently never have to play by the rules. That's the

330
00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:08,560
Speaker 1: problem here, and we better wake up and understand we

331
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:11,000
Speaker 1: have an opportunity. And James Comer and Jim Jordan are

332
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:13,840
Speaker 1: doing an amazing job with this, Chuck Grassley doing an

333
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 1: amazing job with this, but other Republicans need to understand.

334
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:24,120
Speaker 1: Now it's very clear, it's very very clear from these

335
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:28,600
Speaker 1: whistleblowers that all this was going on James Comer also

336
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:32,600
Speaker 1: said this about Joe Biden, saying, Joe Biden lied to

337
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:34,400
Speaker 1: the American people. Listen to this where he had say,

338
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 1: Maria Bartromo.

339
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:37,280
Speaker 6: There are a lot of obstacles, but I think what

340
00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:41,480
Speaker 6: we produced this week, this thirty eight page memorandum, was

341
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:45,240
Speaker 6: pretty solid evidence that we've been able to accumulate, showing

342
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:47,720
Speaker 6: that Joe Biden lied when he said his family never

343
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:50,280
Speaker 6: took money from China, showing that the media got it

344
00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:52,160
Speaker 6: wrong when they said none of these payments were ever

345
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:54,879
Speaker 6: made while Joe Biden was in office, and then naming

346
00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:58,919
Speaker 6: nine bad Biden family members that received money. None of

347
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,920
Speaker 6: this was ever known before, so we presented the media

348
00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:04,920
Speaker 6: with something they weren't used to, especially when Adam Schiff

349
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:06,000
Speaker 6: was leaving the investigations.

350
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:07,400
Speaker 2: We produced evidence.

351
00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:11,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, they have produced evidence, and now it's time for

352
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:14,880
Speaker 1: Republicans to get off their ear ends and focus in

353
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:19,879
Speaker 1: on this. Let's talk about a great opportunity for your IRA.

Speaker 1: devalued dollar. Protecting from the devalued dollar, especially if you're

369
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:17,520
Speaker 1: number four GOLDRA or Augusta Precious Metals dot com. I

370
00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:20,320
Speaker 1: want to move on to another issue that is important,

371
00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:22,560
Speaker 1: and I'm going to read you the headline first and

372
00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:24,960
Speaker 1: then I'm going to play you piece of audio that

373
00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 1: connects very much to this headline. The headline is this.

374
00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:34,080
Speaker 1: I love this headline. By the way Donald Trump pledges

375
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:39,359
Speaker 1: to end birthright citizenship on first day in office. That

376
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:43,960
Speaker 1: apparently is now evil and bigoted and racist everything you

377
00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:47,439
Speaker 1: would expect. In fact, now the media is saying that

378
00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:51,080
Speaker 1: both DeSantis standing up for our borders and Trump, they

379
00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:54,640
Speaker 1: now say, are identical and now it's just a race

380
00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:58,480
Speaker 1: for who is more xenophobic than the other, because they

381
00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:02,040
Speaker 1: actually want to stand up for an America First policy. They're

382
00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:06,199
Speaker 1: also angry in the media that people like Chris Christy,

383
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:08,840
Speaker 1: who are looking at this race and saying, look at me,

384
00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:11,520
Speaker 1: look at me, right for me, I might be the

385
00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:15,199
Speaker 1: great guy that you should get behind. They're angry that

386
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:19,440
Speaker 1: they're not showing up in the polling at all. They're

387
00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:23,720
Speaker 1: basically a joke. Take a listen to this as they're

388
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:27,040
Speaker 1: giving you their expertise on CNN.

389
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:28,639
Speaker 2: It shows that.

390
00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:32,360
Speaker 7: The true state of the Republican Party is maga. There

391
00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:35,960
Speaker 7: are not two dual parties here. There's not two wings.

392
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:37,000
Speaker 2: There is just.

393
00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:42,280
Speaker 7: MAGA and extreme MAGA. And you see that clearly playing

394
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:45,359
Speaker 7: out in the polls, with people like Christie purporting to

395
00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:48,320
Speaker 7: be moderates, purporting to be part.

396
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:50,480
Speaker 2: Of the normal wing of the Republican.

397
00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:53,840
Speaker 7: Party, getting hardly any support in the actual data.

398
00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:59,159
Speaker 1: Now, I love the fact that they're describing the Republican

399
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:02,200
Speaker 1: Party as the part you MAGA an ultra MAGA make

400
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,920
Speaker 1: America great again. If that's who we are. I have

401
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:08,840
Speaker 1: no issues with it. I also love the fact that

402
00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:12,040
Speaker 1: they think the Republican Party should be Chris Christie and

403
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:15,560
Speaker 1: they're angry that it's not. That also tells you everything

404
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:18,040
Speaker 1: you need to know about how successful we are right now.

405
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:20,840
Speaker 1: We don't want Chris Christy to be showing up in

406
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:22,520
Speaker 1: the polls, the same way that we don't want Jeb

407
00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:25,560
Speaker 1: Bush to be showing up in the polls. The last

408
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:28,000
Speaker 1: thing we want is for these idiots to show up

409
00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:28,680
Speaker 1: in the polls.

410
00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:30,040
Speaker 2: Now.

411
00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:31,760
Speaker 1: I do believe we have to reach out in a

412
00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:35,199
Speaker 1: general election, and I don't want there to be a

413
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:41,400
Speaker 1: blood bath and a just massive feeding frenzy between Ron

414
00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:44,640
Speaker 1: DeSantis and Donald Trump. As I said the other day,

415
00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:48,040
Speaker 1: I'm happy with both candidates, and whoever gets the nomination,

416
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:52,040
Speaker 1: I will happily support. What I don't want to happen

417
00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:55,720
Speaker 1: is for these morons to convince America that a guy

418
00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:59,399
Speaker 1: like Chris Christy deserves your vote when clearly he doesn't. Now,

419
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:01,560
Speaker 1: let me go back to the headline, by the way,

420
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:06,000
Speaker 1: and this is again an American first policy. Donald Trump

421
00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:09,160
Speaker 1: is pledging ten birthright citizenship on first in office. Immediately

422
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:11,880
Speaker 1: they screen that's racist, is in a phobia, YadA YadA.

423
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:16,200
Speaker 1: But what the former president is doing is he's returning

424
00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 1: to his calls he's made these before to remove birthright

425
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 1: citizenship with his twenty twenty four White House campaign announcing

426
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:28,240
Speaker 1: this week he would seek to end it via executive

427
00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 1: order on the first and in office now. Trump announced his

428
00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:34,119
Speaker 1: plan on the twenty fifth anniversary of the United States

429
00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:38,080
Speaker 1: versus Wong Kim arc that's the Supreme Court case that

430
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 1: established the constitutional right to birthright citizenship. The proposal echoes

431
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:49,520
Speaker 1: a long time demand of immigration restrictions and and measure

432
00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:53,240
Speaker 1: Trump touted while in office, attracting criticism from both immigration

433
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:59,040
Speaker 1: advocates as well as legal experts. Now, the latest that

434
00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:02,360
Speaker 1: we now know is most experts say that a present

435
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:05,720
Speaker 1: does not have the authority to end birthright citizenship through

436
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:09,359
Speaker 1: an executive order, primarily because the practice is enshrined in

437
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:14,199
Speaker 1: the Constitution. They claim the Fourteenth Amendment grand citizenship citizenship

438
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:16,600
Speaker 1: to those born or naturalized in the United States of

439
00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:22,800
Speaker 1: America and subject to the jurisdiction thereof. The widely accepted

440
00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:27,000
Speaker 1: interpretation of that amendment that it applies to children born

441
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:29,080
Speaker 1: in the United States of America regardless of the parents.

442
00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:33,720
Speaker 1: Immigration status has held since the eighteen ninety eighth Supreme

443
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:38,000
Speaker 1: Court case involving a US citizen with Chinese parents. The

444
00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:41,200
Speaker 1: Fourteenth Amendment was adopted after the Civil War to guarantee

445
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:48,040
Speaker 1: equal rights for former slaves. Immigration restrictions argue that excludes

446
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:52,360
Speaker 1: the children of other groups, like undocumented immigrants, from its benefit.

447
00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:58,439
Speaker 1: As a member of the Reconstruction Congress explained in eighteen

448
00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:02,879
Speaker 1: sixty six, exception to birthright citizenship applies only to the

449
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:07,600
Speaker 1: children of diplomats and those born into Native American tribes

450
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:11,280
Speaker 1: who were under the jurisdiction of a separate sovereign and

451
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:14,639
Speaker 1: did not need to comply with all US laws, wrote

452
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:17,680
Speaker 1: Amanda Frost, a professor of law at the University of Virginia,

453
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:22,680
Speaker 1: an author of quote you are not America citizenship, stripping

454
00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:28,880
Speaker 1: from dread Scott to the Dreamers now. In contrast, immigrants

455
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 1: and their children living the United States of America were

456
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:34,440
Speaker 1: and are required to follow all federal and state laws

457
00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:37,720
Speaker 1: or face criminal and civil penalties, and so are fully

458
00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:42,200
Speaker 1: subject to the nation's jurisdictions. According to Trump campaign, the

459
00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:45,000
Speaker 1: executive order, they say, will explain the clear meaning of

460
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:47,919
Speaker 1: the Fourteenth Amendment, which it says is that the children

461
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:49,919
Speaker 1: of foreign nationals born in the United States of America

462
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 1: are not subject to the jurisdiction of the United States

463
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:56,560
Speaker 1: as defined in the Constitution now. During Trump's term in office,

464
00:27:56,600 --> 00:28:00,119
Speaker 1: a draft executive order to that effect was circulated, and

465
00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:04,800
Speaker 1: the idea was revised shortly after Trump lost to President

466
00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:07,840
Speaker 1: Biden in the twenty twenty election. But Trump had floated

467
00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:11,199
Speaker 1: inning birthright citizenship earlier in his presidency. In fact, in

468
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:14,280
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen, he said in an Axis interview that he

469
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:17,840
Speaker 1: planned to issue an executive order inning birthright citizenship, setting

470
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:21,800
Speaker 1: off a political firestorm. It was always told to me

471
00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:24,160
Speaker 1: that you needed a constitutional amendment. Guess what you don't,

472
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:28,000
Speaker 1: Trump said at the time. While executive order altering the

473
00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:31,760
Speaker 1: interpretation of the Fourteenth Amendment would likely face many legal challenges,

474
00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:34,879
Speaker 1: his proponents sought to take the case to the courts

475
00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:39,520
Speaker 1: and hoping of getting a favorable Supreme Court outcome. Supporters

476
00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:42,960
Speaker 1: of the measure also say that they're betting basically on

477
00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:47,920
Speaker 1: a judicial revocation of birthright citizenship. Quote. This will set

478
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:52,600
Speaker 1: up the court fight, the order will be enjoined, case

479
00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 1: will be eventually reached the Supreme Court which then will

480
00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 1: finally have to rule on the meaning of subject to

481
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:02,240
Speaker 1: the jurisdiction. That's what the executive director of the Center

482
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:05,800
Speaker 1: for Immigration Studies, A restrictionist group is how the liberal

483
00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:09,640
Speaker 1: media calls them. That calls for massive reductions in immigration.

484
00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:13,560
Speaker 1: Now Trump has made it clear that he is trying

485
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:16,560
Speaker 1: to secure the southern border, and just like in twenty sixteen,

486
00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:19,760
Speaker 1: Trump has sought to make immigration board security a top

487
00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:23,280
Speaker 1: campaign issue, as he should. In its release this week,

488
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:25,720
Speaker 1: the Trump campaign dove into the fight over the meaning

489
00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:30,600
Speaker 1: of jurisdiction and claim that the United States has become

490
00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:32,360
Speaker 1: one of the few countries in the world to extend

491
00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:35,840
Speaker 1: citizenship to the children of illegal aliens, even if both

492
00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:39,560
Speaker 1: parents are not citizens nor even legally present in the

493
00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:42,560
Speaker 1: United States of America. Now, let me be clear, I

494
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:45,440
Speaker 1: don't know if Donald Trump would win this one. I

495
00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:49,680
Speaker 1: do think it's important to understand what he's trying to accomplish,

496
00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:53,040
Speaker 1: and the agenda here is one that we need to understand.

497
00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:58,640
Speaker 1: The agenda of the president is let's go out and

498
00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:02,320
Speaker 1: fight on every one of these issues. Let's make sure

499
00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:06,120
Speaker 1: that we don't back down. Let's make sure that we

500
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:10,000
Speaker 1: are standing here and making it clear what we believe in,

501
00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:13,320
Speaker 1: why we believe, and let's challenge any area where there

502
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,880
Speaker 1: is a gray area if it comes to securing our

503
00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:20,680
Speaker 1: southern border. That's what he's trying to do here. The

504
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:25,040
Speaker 1: other problem is, we know that people are abusing this rule.

505
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 1: We know that people are coming across the border illegally

506
00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:30,880
Speaker 1: at the very last second, and then they're having children

507
00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:32,840
Speaker 1: in this country. And they're doing it because then they

508
00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:35,280
Speaker 1: know that they've got an anchor to become a citizen here.

509
00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:39,480
Speaker 1: They know they're much less likely to be kicked out right,

510
00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:44,840
Speaker 1: much much much less likely to be kicked out of

511
00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:47,320
Speaker 1: this country if they have a child in this country.

512
00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:51,479
Speaker 1: They're betting on all of this, Okay, Like this is

513
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,320
Speaker 1: their thing. This is what they're betting on. This is

514
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:57,400
Speaker 1: what they're hoping is going to happen. There's also one

515
00:30:57,440 --> 00:30:59,280
Speaker 1: other point I want to make, and that's about the media.

516
00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:04,440
Speaker 1: The media he is not reporting this story accurately. If

517
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:07,520
Speaker 1: you actually listen to what Donald Trump said pledging this

518
00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:09,560
Speaker 1: executive order on day one of his presidency to end

519
00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:13,360
Speaker 1: birthright citizenship for legal aliens, he says, clearly this is

520
00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:18,840
Speaker 1: part of his entire basically immigration, secure our border, plan.

521
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:21,760
Speaker 1: It's not one thing by itself out there isolated. They're

522
00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:24,680
Speaker 1: not telling you that. So I will listen to Trump

523
00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:26,000
Speaker 1: in his own words.

524
00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:28,120
Speaker 8: Part of my plan to secure the border on day one.

525
00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:31,560
Speaker 1: Did you hear that? Part of my plan to secure

526
00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:34,240
Speaker 1: the border on day one? Did the media tell you that? No,

527
00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:36,760
Speaker 1: they just come out. They're like, the courts are gonna

528
00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:39,800
Speaker 1: stop him. He can't do this. He's wrong. He's a lunatic,

529
00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:43,520
Speaker 1: he's xenophobic, he's a racist, he's a bigot. No, they

530
00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:45,520
Speaker 1: take it out of context, of course, because he says

531
00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:48,000
Speaker 1: part of my plan day one is secure a border, right,

532
00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:49,840
Speaker 1: part of our plan. And if you missed it, if

533
00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:51,280
Speaker 1: you don't believe it, here it is again.

534
00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:53,360
Speaker 8: It's part of my plan to secure the border.

535
00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:56,280
Speaker 9: On day one my new term in office, I will

536
00:31:56,280 --> 00:32:00,240
Speaker 9: sign an executive order making clear to federal agencies that,

537
00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:04,960
Speaker 9: under the correct interpretation of the law going forward, the

538
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:09,880
Speaker 9: future children of illegal aliens will not receive automatic US citizenship.

539
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 9: It's things like this that bring millions of people to

540
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:19,400
Speaker 9: our country, and they enter our country illegally. My policy

541
00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:23,400
Speaker 9: will choke off a major incentive for continued illegal immigration,

542
00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:27,920
Speaker 9: deter more migrants from coming and encourage many of the

543
00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:32,600
Speaker 9: aliens Joe Biden is unlawfully led into our country to

544
00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:34,560
Speaker 9: go back to their home countries.

545
00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:35,560
Speaker 8: They must go back.

546
00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:40,200
Speaker 9: Nobody could afford this, nobody could do this, and even morally,

547
00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:43,479
Speaker 9: it's so wrong. My order will also end their unfair

548
00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:47,440
Speaker 9: practice known as birth tourism, where hundreds of thousands of

549
00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:51,000
Speaker 9: people from all over the planet squad and hotels for

550
00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:53,959
Speaker 9: there last few weeks at pregnancy.

551
00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:57,400
Speaker 8: To illegitimately and illegally obtain you a.

552
00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:03,480
Speaker 9: Citizenship for the child of to later exploit chain migration

553
00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:06,800
Speaker 9: to jump the line and get green cards for themselves

554
00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:11,560
Speaker 9: and their family members. It's a practice that's so horrible

555
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:15,520
Speaker 9: and so egregious, but we let it go forward. At

556
00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:18,080
Speaker 9: least one parent will have to be a citizen or

557
00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:21,600
Speaker 9: a legal resident in order to qualify. We will secure

558
00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:25,320
Speaker 9: our borders and we will restore or sovereignty. Starting on

559
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:29,000
Speaker 9: day one, our country will be great again. Our country

560
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:32,280
Speaker 9: will be a country again. We'll have borders, we'll have

561
00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:35,560
Speaker 9: proper education, and we'll put America first.

562
00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:39,960
Speaker 1: If you put it in contact sounds pretty reasonable to me,

563
00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:42,160
Speaker 1: and I think there's a hell of a lot of

564
00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:45,200
Speaker 1: voters that are going to agree with me on that one.

565
00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:47,880
Speaker 1: Don't forget to share this podcast or your family and friends.

566
00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:50,440
Speaker 1: Please write us a five star review if you would.

567
00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:52,600
Speaker 1: It helps us reach a lot more people, and we

568
00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:53,960
Speaker 1: will see you back here tomorrow
