I don't 19 00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:46,680 Speaker 2: know if we can reveal yet, but there will be 20 00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:47,680 Speaker 2: more news on that later. 21 00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:49,159 Speaker 4: Yes, absolutely so. 22 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:51,600 Speaker 3: We have a show that is I regret to inform 23 00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 3: everyone front loaded with more Epstein news because the Trump 24 00:00:56,080 --> 00:01:00,480 Speaker 3: administration continues to flail and MAGA continue used to be 25 00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:03,880 Speaker 3: divided over the Epstein question. So we have more comments 26 00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:07,360 Speaker 3: from the President to get to more comments from members 27 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:09,880 Speaker 3: of Congress, including the Speaker of the House, to get 28 00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:12,800 Speaker 3: to and people sort of on the outside Magas supporters 29 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:15,600 Speaker 3: on the outside who are having a tough time with 30 00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 3: this one. And Crystal new inflation numbers were out yesterday, 31 00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 3: some debate over whether they were good or bad for 32 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:24,080 Speaker 3: the administration politically, and whether they were good or bad 33 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 3: for the American people substantively. That we will get to 34 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,479 Speaker 3: the most oppressing article that I have read in quite 35 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:34,840 Speaker 3: a while, Crystal, on why first time home ownership in 36 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:36,600 Speaker 3: the US is at a record low. We're going to 37 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:39,279 Speaker 3: break down some of that, along with about a viral 38 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 3: clip from Tucker Carlson that sort of spoke to exactly 39 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 3: this from the Turning Point USA summit. And of course, 40 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:50,520 Speaker 3: the Pentagon is now in business with Grock did you. 41 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what you expected, Mecca Mecha Hitler has taken 42 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 2: the Pentagon. That's what's happening here apparently, But actually. 43 00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 4: This is a real story. 44 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,920 Speaker 3: The Pentagon has signed a contract with Xai to use 45 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 3: grac for government. So we have all of the details 46 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:08,080 Speaker 3: on that story, and we are very excited. We've been 47 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:11,359 Speaker 3: trying for days to get in the Superman block. You 48 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,040 Speaker 3: can see that on the bottom of your screen. Because 49 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:18,079 Speaker 3: Producer Griffin and Crystal have just so very many thoughts. 50 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 4: Ben Shapiro's thoughts too. 51 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 2: I was going to say, as says Ben Shapiro, his 52 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 2: are a little different than ours, but we'll get into 53 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 2: all of that. Yeah, well, you know, when I see 54 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 2: when I get to see a movie in the theaters, 55 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 2: it's a very rare and exciting thing for me, so 56 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 2: I have to talk about it, and especially when it's 57 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 2: a movie that's, as Hassan Piker put it, two Hours 58 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:37,799 Speaker 2: of f Israel. It's basically that we're going to try 59 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 2: to keep it spoiler free, but there's actually a lot 60 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 2: of very interesting political dynamics going on the movie that 61 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 2: are worth digging into. So Gryffin will join us for that. 62 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:46,240 Speaker 2: So that should be fun. 63 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,040 Speaker 3: And we do always think of Producer Griffin as like 64 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 3: the Ben Shapiro of our operation, so it makes sense 65 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 3: that we'll have him. 66 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 2: The parallels are striking on every level. 67 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's incredibly similar. People are around. 68 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:02,960 Speaker 3: So as a reminder, Breakingpoints dot Com for premium subscription. 69 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 3: If you can't subscribe, no problem, just subscribe to the 70 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 3: subscribe on the channel here like the videos, we appreciate 71 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 3: it so much. And let's start with the president himself 72 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 3: weighing in more on the case of Jeffrey Epstein. Donald 73 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 3: Trump kept getting questions, of course because there's so much 74 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:25,359 Speaker 3: confusion radiating forth from his administration, partially why these questions 75 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 3: are totally fair and will not go away for the 76 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:29,239 Speaker 3: Trump administration. 77 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 4: So let's roll a one. This is Trump asking answering 78 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 4: some questions. 79 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 5: Just yesterday, She's given us just a very quick briefing, 80 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 5: and in terms of the credibility of the different things 81 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 5: that they've seen, and I would say that, you know, 82 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 5: these files were made up by Komi, they were made 83 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 5: up by Obama, they were made up by the Biden. 84 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 5: It from you know, and we went through years of 85 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 5: that with the Russia, Russia, Russia hopes, with all of 86 00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 5: the different things that we had to go through. We've 87 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 5: gone through years of it. But she's handled it very well, 88 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 5: and it's going to be up to her. Whatever she 89 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 5: thinks is credible, she should release you. I don't understand 90 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 5: it why they would be so interested. 91 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 6: He's dead for a long time. He was never a 92 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:17,919 Speaker 6: big factor in terms of life. I don't understand what 93 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 6: the interest or what the fascination is. 94 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 4: I really don't. 95 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 6: And the credible information has been given. Don't forget. We 96 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 6: went through years of the Muller witch. 97 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 5: Hunt and all of. 98 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 6: The different things, the Steal dossier, which was all fake, 99 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 6: All that information was fake. But I don't understand why 100 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 6: the Jeffrey Epstein case would be of interest to anybody. 101 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 6: It's pretty boring stuff. It's sorted, but it's boring, and 102 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 6: I don't understand why it keeps going. I think, well, really, 103 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:51,920 Speaker 6: only pretty bad people, including fake news, want to keep 104 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 6: something like that going. But credible information, let them give it. 105 00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:00,120 Speaker 6: Anything that's credible, I would say, let them have it. 106 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 4: All right. So I'm actually going to respond to that. 107 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 3: Clip with a reaction from Ann Coulter, who said, ex ante, 108 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 3: I say Trump did not rape underage girls, but when 109 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 3: he slings bullshit like this, you have to wonder, and 110 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 3: quotes Trump saying Epstein files were written by Obama Cricket, 111 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,360 Speaker 3: Hillary Comy Brennan, the losers and criminals of the Biden administration. 112 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:23,799 Speaker 3: Culter then responds, everything we know about Epstein's teen sex 113 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 3: ring comes from the Palm Beach police and the girls themselves. 114 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:31,160 Speaker 3: DEM's ferociously protected Epstein, a major DEM donor. 115 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:33,719 Speaker 4: But Crystal, that is true. 116 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 3: Everything we know about Epstein, for the most part, is 117 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 3: coming from the Palm Beach, the local Palm Beach police, and. 118 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:40,720 Speaker 4: The girls themselves. 119 00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 3: We have gotten trickles of information that are frustratingly limited 120 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:50,160 Speaker 3: actually from the federal government. So it's a I also 121 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 3: saw I don't know if you saw this as well, 122 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 3: Megan Kelly reporting that she's been told by several people 123 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 3: whether or not it's true, Several people have said that 124 00:05:57,680 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 3: the files on Epstein were left in such a way 125 00:05:59,880 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 3: that pointed right at Donald Trump, which could mean a 126 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 3: lot of things. It could mean funny business going on. 127 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 3: It can mean that there's there there when it comes 128 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,680 Speaker 3: to Donald Trump. But I think that's where this has 129 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 3: just opened up an entirely new chapter in Trump's response 130 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 3: to the the Epstein chaos of Pam Bondi's DOJ which 131 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 3: is now saying that this is part of actually a 132 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:26,279 Speaker 3: different kind of deep state plot to frame Donald Trump. 133 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, there's so much to say about those 134 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 2: two clubs who just played of Trump. First of all, 135 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 2: no one is buying the Obama wrote the Epstein files 136 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:39,599 Speaker 2: line is just utterly preposterous. Number Two, Now he's calling 137 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:45,040 Speaker 2: his own supporters bad people for caring about an elite 138 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 2: sex crimes ring against young girls with potential intel tie in, 139 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 2: and you know, implicating any number potentially of powerful figures 140 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 2: say is that that is boring and can't understand why 141 00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:01,280 Speaker 2: that is interesting to anyone. Number Three, the optics there 142 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:03,159 Speaker 2: of that second clip where you know, he's saying, Oh, 143 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:05,039 Speaker 2: it's boring and you're a bad person if you still 144 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,480 Speaker 2: care about this. You got Howard Lutnick standing there, who 145 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 2: Lo and Behold actually purchased one of Jeffrey Epstein's properties 146 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 2: in Manhattan, was his longtime neighbor, So you know, just 147 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 2: optically not the best there. He's sort of like chuckling 148 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 2: along with what Trump has to say there, and it 149 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 2: really is so perplexing and hard to explain outside of 150 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 2: I mean, Okham's razor is that he's reacting in this frenetic, 151 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:33,160 Speaker 2: insane and incredibly if he just wants us to go away, 152 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 2: he's doing the polar opposite of making this away go 153 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 2: away because he's worried about what information might come out 154 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 2: like that is the very obvious conclusion the number of 155 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 2: people soccer included, by the way, who have said, you know, 156 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 2: I didn't really think there was there there in terms 157 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 2: of Trump until I saw the way he reacted to this, 158 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 2: and now it's like, I don't know. And then you 159 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 2: start to go back and think about all of the 160 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 2: connections and the videos and the flight logs and the 161 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 2: you know, there was actually civil suit that named him. 162 00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,559 Speaker 2: Now that went away. Maybe it's because there was nothing 163 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 2: there and so that just, you know, sort of disappeared. 164 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 2: But you got Epstein saying that they were besties for 165 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 2: a decade. You got Trump on the record in an 166 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 2: infamous quote saying, hey, we were good friends for fifteen years. 167 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 2: And hey, he likes him young. He loves beautiful women, 168 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 2: maybe as much as me I do, and many of 169 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 2: them are on the younger side. So it's not at 170 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 2: all preposterous to say, what the hell is going on here? 171 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:24,520 Speaker 2: And as we discussed yesterday, you know, to be perfectly 172 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 2: blunt about this, yes, the American people have a direct 173 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 2: interest in knowing whether Massad has hedo blackmail material on 174 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:35,079 Speaker 2: the President of the United States. So I don't think 175 00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 2: this is going away. The other thing I've been thinking 176 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:40,720 Speaker 2: about is you know, Trump likes these sort of like 177 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 2: humiliation rituals for his for the people in his circle, 178 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:49,319 Speaker 2: to sort of force them into situations that are like embarrassing, 179 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 2: go against things that they previously said. So a couple 180 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 2: of examples, you had RFK Junior eating the McDonald's on 181 00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 2: the plane, right, you had JD Vance being forced to 182 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 2: stand behind him as he announces the ron strike, obviously 183 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 2: something that Jade Vance was supposedly going to be against, 184 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:06,560 Speaker 2: and there are many other examples of that. This almost 185 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 2: feels like a humiliation ritual for his supporters, you know, 186 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 2: like how far can I go in like directly attacking 187 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 2: you and gaslighting you that this isn't something that I 188 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,600 Speaker 2: ran on and that my vice president wasn't out there 189 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:25,200 Speaker 2: campaigning on to get elected. It almost feels like that. 190 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 2: It feels like a test of the base of like 191 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 2: how far can I go? Can I really shoot someone 192 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 2: on Fifth Avenue and you idiots are still going to 193 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 2: stick with me? That's kind of the vibe that I 194 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 2: get from all of this. It's actually quite twisted. 195 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 4: That's a really yeah. 196 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:42,319 Speaker 3: I think that's a really interesting take because there's something 197 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:46,560 Speaker 3: I mean, also, Trump Pambondi have known each other. That 198 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 3: Trump and Pambondi have known each other for a really 199 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 3: long time. So I wonder also if I mean, obviously 200 00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:53,880 Speaker 3: his original plan was to put Matt Gates in that role. 201 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:55,960 Speaker 3: I don't think any of us are buying the like 202 00:09:56,040 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 3: four D Chess intentional nomination of Matt Gates have Pam 203 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 3: Bondi come. 204 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 4: Into that role. 205 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:05,720 Speaker 3: But I think he also just seems to trust that 206 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:08,960 Speaker 3: she's protecting, like because the way she's doubled and tripled down, 207 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 3: it's it is kind of humiliating, of course for someone 208 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 3: who came in and was promising all of this transparency, 209 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 3: but it is it's also her demonstrating loyalty over and 210 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 3: over again and being forced to demonstrate that loyalty and 211 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 3: more sort of increasingly vociferous terms. 212 00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 2: Well in Bongino and Cash too. I mean, the reports 213 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:34,320 Speaker 2: are Bongino is back in the office and whatever mental 214 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 2: health day he took has restored him to full Trump 215 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 2: syco fancy. And you know, these are two guys who 216 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:44,400 Speaker 2: made a living off of delving into, you know, some 217 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:48,080 Speaker 2: of the theories around Epstein, and so for them as well, 218 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 2: like if they'll do this, they will they will do anything. 219 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 3: So let's move on to this vote. In Congress. Yesterday, 220 00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 3: there was a vote in committee. People may have heard about. 221 00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,719 Speaker 3: This was Rules Committee a day before, and we had 222 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:04,319 Speaker 3: Rocanna on obviously to talk about. He tried to get 223 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:08,079 Speaker 3: in a quick vote, procedural vote basically to include this 224 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:11,680 Speaker 3: It would have forced disclosure on Epstein files within thirty 225 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 3: days and demanded that they start preserving all files related 226 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 3: to Epstein. That failed in committee. Then Democrats tried to 227 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 3: force vote on a rule that would have opened debate 228 00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 3: on another Epstein, very similar Epstein piece of legislation. 229 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:29,680 Speaker 4: So we can go ahead and take a look at 230 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 4: this next video. 231 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 7: On this vote, the ASER two eleven, the NASER two ten. 232 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 4: The previous question is ordered. The question is on adoption 233 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 4: of the resolution. Those in favor say. 234 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 7: I, those opposed say no, and the opinion the chair 235 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 7: of the Eyes have it. 236 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 3: So I have to say I actually talked to Stuby 237 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 3: right after that happened, and some other members of Congress, 238 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 3: and also Marjorie Taylor Green, Anapauline Aluna, some of these 239 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 3: super Maga people who've been all over the Epstein case. 240 00:11:56,920 --> 00:12:00,679 Speaker 3: Marchor Tayler Green certainly and they said they're more than 241 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,960 Speaker 3: happy basically to keep voting on this. Like Thomas Massey 242 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 3: has a bill, we'll see where that goes. Mike Johnson yesterday, 243 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 3: we have more from him too, So I don't think 244 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 3: I necessarily they had this like whole crypto package that 245 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:15,080 Speaker 3: they're it's all very disgusting, the Crypto Week. 246 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 4: Have you seen any of their like Crypto Week stuff. 247 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:22,320 Speaker 2: It's like, yeah, I hate it. It's terrible, and We'retually 248 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:24,680 Speaker 2: it's actually doing a little bit less well in the House. 249 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:27,319 Speaker 2: Apparently I haven't followed it super closely, but some of 250 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 2: the terrible crypto legislation failed to meet some like keycedural 251 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 2: hurdle yesterday, so that's good. And Democrats have been more united, 252 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 2: not uniformly, I think like Richie Torres and so Josh 253 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 2: Gottheiber and some like the worst Democrats out there are 254 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 2: in favor of it. But there's been less Democratic support 255 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 2: in the House than there wasn't the Senate, so that's 256 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:48,080 Speaker 2: at least somewhat encouraging. But listen, on this thing. You 257 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:52,200 Speaker 2: had a party line unanimous vote where Republicans were against 258 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,200 Speaker 2: even opening debate on the release of the Epstein files. 259 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 2: So you know, I'm sure they're going to spin and 260 00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 2: they have their excuses of, oh, this didn't make sense 261 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,320 Speaker 2: to do with cryptoweek or blah blah blah. But at 262 00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 2: the end of the day, y'all voted against even debating 263 00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 2: whether the Epstein file should be released after running around 264 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:10,600 Speaker 2: for years, you know, posturing like you want a transparency 265 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:13,000 Speaker 2: and you cared about this. So I think it's very 266 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:14,560 Speaker 2: hard to see it any other way. 267 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 3: Happy crypto weeks all who celebrate, I have to get 268 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 3: that out here. 269 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 4: Well, so let's tak. 270 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 2: Fre your attention to this matter. 271 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:24,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, let's get into Mike Johnson actually, because this was 272 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 3: I think this is significant. We'll see, but some Republicans 273 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:32,079 Speaker 3: are calling for Gillian Maxwell to testify. 274 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:33,720 Speaker 4: Mike Johnson himself. 275 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 3: Obviously will have some control over whether or not bill 276 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 3: like Congressman Conna's is passed or Congressman Thomas Massy's is passed. 277 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 4: He'll have them. 278 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 2: I think they're working to gather on it, aren't they. 279 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 2: I think it's a Massy Conna effort at this point. 280 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 3: Perfect you love to hear it, And that's the type 281 00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 3: of thing that Mike Johnson will have control over getting 282 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 3: to the actual voting process onto the floor of the House, 283 00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 3: and so he was talking to Benny Johnson yesterday also 284 00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 3: Tim Burchett, let's go ahead and roll a four. 285 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:09,000 Speaker 8: I'm for transparency. We're intellectually consistent in this. We look. 286 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:11,720 Speaker 8: Reagan used to tell us we should trust the American people. 287 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:13,560 Speaker 8: I believe in that principle. I know President Trump does 288 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 8: as well. 289 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:14,719 Speaker 2: And I trust him. 290 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 8: I mean, he put together a team of his choosing 291 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:20,000 Speaker 8: and they're doing a great job. It's a very delicate subject, 292 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 8: but we should we should put everything out there and 293 00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:24,480 Speaker 8: let the people decide it. I mean, the White House 294 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 8: and the White House team are privy to facts that 295 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 8: I don't know. I mean, this isn't my lane. I 296 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 8: haven't been involved in that, uh, but but I agree 297 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 8: with the sentiment that we need to we need to 298 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 8: put it out there. And you know, Pam BONDI I 299 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 8: don't know when she originally made the statement. I think 300 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 8: she was talking about documents, as I understood that they 301 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:42,520 Speaker 8: were on her desk. I don't know that she was 302 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 8: specific about a list or whatever. But she needs to 303 00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 8: come forward and explain that to everybody. I like Pam, 304 00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 8: I mean, I think she's done a good job. We 305 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 8: need the DJ focusing on the major priorities. So let's 306 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 8: get this thing resolved so that they can deal with 307 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:59,080 Speaker 8: violent crime and public safety and election integrity and going 308 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 8: after ActBlue and things that the President is most concerned 309 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 8: about as we are. So I'm anxious to get this 310 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 8: behind them. 311 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 9: I'm not an attorney. I just find them guilty and 312 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 9: hang them publicly. I mean I'm not that's not over 313 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 9: the top either. I'm ready. I'm over it. I'm big 314 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:20,360 Speaker 9: on clarity and transparency, and you know, that's good reason 315 00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:22,280 Speaker 9: people don't trust government in either party. 316 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 4: Crystal, that was a good one. Just hang them, somebody said. 317 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, and then you know, shortly after thereafter votes against 318 00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 2: even debating the release of the files. I mean, that's 319 00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 2: it's hard to take them seriously in their language here 320 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 2: when the voting record at this point says something very different. 321 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 4: They can put up. I mean, that's it. 322 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:46,560 Speaker 3: Like they if they want to dispel people's deep skepticism, 323 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 3: they can move to start tackling some of these bills 324 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 3: and to start pressuring transparency. 325 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,120 Speaker 4: Mike Johnson said in. 326 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:57,200 Speaker 3: A statement towards the end of the day, all House 327 00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 3: Republicans are for truth and transparency, and we know President 328 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:02,240 Speaker 3: Trump can be trusted to make the right decisions, to 329 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:06,400 Speaker 3: stand for justice and to protect the innocent. Now, Crystal, 330 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:08,680 Speaker 3: what's interesting about that? A couple of things. First of all, 331 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:11,760 Speaker 3: the next sentence is literally, I'm thankful for President Trump 332 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 3: getting involved tonight to ensure that we can pass the 333 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:16,560 Speaker 3: Genius Act tomorrow and agreeing again to help us advance 334 00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 3: additional crypto legislation in the coming days. 335 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:21,520 Speaker 4: Much more to come exclamation point. 336 00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:24,760 Speaker 3: So pivoting, I mean, I thought pivoting to crypto was 337 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 3: a ridiculous, look, of course, I mean, I think that 338 00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:29,040 Speaker 3: just comes across as ridiculous to a lot of people. 339 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:30,920 Speaker 4: But also this. 340 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:36,200 Speaker 3: Them saying we're punting to trusting Donald Trump. It's something 341 00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:38,800 Speaker 3: that we've covered over the last couple of days, and 342 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 3: it is not going to be enough for their critics 343 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:45,400 Speaker 3: in any way whatsoever to just say we don't have 344 00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:48,920 Speaker 3: to do anything in Congress because Republicans in Congress trust 345 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:54,120 Speaker 3: Donald Trump. That's if that's right, that's the party line 346 00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 3: that they're landing on. 347 00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 4: That's going to be a tough one. 348 00:16:57,360 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, that seems like where they are is 349 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 2: they'll say on one side of their mouth, I believe 350 00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 2: in transparency, and on the other side, they'll say, but 351 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:07,160 Speaker 2: I trust Trump, and Trump is obviously against transparency at 352 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:11,879 Speaker 2: this point in time, but increasingly I just trust Trump 353 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,719 Speaker 2: is where they are landing, and certainly where they we 354 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:17,960 Speaker 2: know from reporting, the White House is telling people that's 355 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 2: where you need to be. Stop undercutting Pam Bondy, stop 356 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 2: criticizing Dan and Cash, stop with your even talking about this. 357 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 2: If you're still talking about this, you are a bad person, 358 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 2: and you're giving cover to Obama and Crooked Hillary and 359 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 2: Jim Comey somehow, who allegedly now wrote the Epstein files, 360 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 2: like it's just preposterous. So I think that is where 361 00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:43,960 Speaker 2: congressional Republicans are hoping. They're hoping this all just sort 362 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:46,600 Speaker 2: of goes away and dies down. And now on the 363 00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:49,680 Speaker 2: other side, you've got a partisan motivation from Democrats, who, 364 00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 2: I think it's fair to today showed very little at 365 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:54,560 Speaker 2: the congressional level. I think I think this has not 366 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:57,439 Speaker 2: been a left right issue at the level of the 367 00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:01,960 Speaker 2: American people. It has become a right wing coded issue 368 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:04,119 Speaker 2: because it was sort of like lumped in with the 369 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:07,520 Speaker 2: QAnon bucket, even though that is you know, wildly unfair. 370 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:11,160 Speaker 2: But there was mass public interest across the board, regardless 371 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:13,959 Speaker 2: of political ideology, as one would expect with you know, 372 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:19,119 Speaker 2: such a horrific and potentially consequential situation. But it's certainly 373 00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:21,880 Speaker 2: fair to say Democrats and conversations showed too much interest 374 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:23,960 Speaker 2: when it was Biden the White House. But now they 375 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 2: have they smell blood in the water and they have 376 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:30,360 Speaker 2: a partisan interest in doing everything they can to keep 377 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:33,520 Speaker 2: this thing going. And so Rocanna, you know, was first 378 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 2: out of the gates with that amendment that got voted 379 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:38,879 Speaker 2: down nearly a party line vote. There was actually one 380 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:41,399 Speaker 2: Republican who crossed over I forgetting his name, who crossed 381 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:44,679 Speaker 2: over and voted alongside with Rowe. Otherwise it was a 382 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:47,440 Speaker 2: party line vote, and you know, we talked to him, anster. 383 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:49,320 Speaker 2: He said, no, we're not letting this go. I'm not 384 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 2: letting this go. He's working with Thomas Massey to move forward. 385 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:54,480 Speaker 2: Massi's already on the ounce, and so he's already in 386 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:57,480 Speaker 2: yolow mode, you know, having millions dropped on him in 387 00:18:57,520 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 2: a primary challenge whatever. So I don't expect there to 388 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:06,679 Speaker 2: be a let up for a while, especially since Trump 389 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:11,639 Speaker 2: keeps like strisand affecting himself to death on this one. 390 00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:15,000 Speaker 2: Every time he makes some new preposterous comment. You know, 391 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 2: it gives everyone an excuse to continue talking about it, 392 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:20,639 Speaker 2: and as they should, because as I said, like, it 393 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 2: can be easy to dismiss this as oh he will, 394 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:24,520 Speaker 2: he's dad, why do you even care, blah blah blah, 395 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:29,400 Speaker 2: But it has potential current consequences for our foreign policy, 396 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 2: not to mention having a system of justice that is 397 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:34,000 Speaker 2: not two tier where elites can just get away with 398 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:36,280 Speaker 2: the most horrific crimes imaginable and have it swept under 399 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 2: the rug. 400 00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what I said. 401 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:41,879 Speaker 3: I mean, I think it's because first of all, current 402 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 3: for current potential foreign policy implications of this. Secondly, you 403 00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:51,120 Speaker 3: have this is completely like royaling the administration, So there's 404 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 3: questions about what's happening behind closed doors, whether the Attorney 405 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:58,200 Speaker 3: general is long for this administration, all of those things 406 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:03,120 Speaker 3: completely important sas and the story matters to people as 407 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 3: a sort of proxy question of trust that a lot 408 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:10,240 Speaker 3: of people this was one of the issues that brought 409 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 3: them along to place their trust in Donald Trump. It's 410 00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 3: not everyone and it wasn't anyone's top priority for the 411 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 3: most part, but it was one of those things that 412 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:21,600 Speaker 3: said you're an insider versus an outsider. And now Democrats 413 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:25,119 Speaker 3: have all kinds of political incentives to start pursuing a 414 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 3: question that they will be rewarded by voters with trust 415 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 3: if they do a good job holding the Trump administration's 416 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 3: feet to the fire. I actually want to roll a 417 00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:40,000 Speaker 3: seven crystal because I mentioned it. It goes along with 418 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:44,360 Speaker 3: Mike Johnson. When Benny Johnson asked House Speaker Mike Johnson 419 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,359 Speaker 3: whether or not Gilane Maxwell should testify, he basically said 420 00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:48,960 Speaker 3: everything people heard. 421 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:50,920 Speaker 4: He said, everything should be out there. I'm all for transparancy. 422 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 3: Attorney General Pam Bondi should come forward and explain herselfs 423 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 3: explain herself and tell us what happened. Mike Lee also 424 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 3: talked to Bennie Johnson yesterday and said Gleaine Maxwell should testify. 425 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:02,399 Speaker 2: It. 426 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 4: Let's role a seven. You've been favored of Julayne Maxwell testifying. 427 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:11,120 Speaker 10: Absolutely absolutely posted on this and if if she were 428 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:14,960 Speaker 10: to testify, I think she could answer a lot of 429 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:17,680 Speaker 10: questions that could help put all of this in perspective. Yeah, 430 00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:19,840 Speaker 10: I know a lot of these players, some of them 431 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:23,320 Speaker 10: are disagreeing with each other, Dan Bongio and I have 432 00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 10: been really good friends for the last fourteen years, and 433 00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:28,520 Speaker 10: good friends with Cash Mattel and also with Pam Bondi. 434 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:30,359 Speaker 10: I like all of them. I think there is a 435 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:33,880 Speaker 10: way to draw a straight line between all of them 436 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 10: in a way that will satisfy the publics both curiosity 437 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:39,880 Speaker 10: and legitimate demand to know what happened. 438 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:44,399 Speaker 3: Okay, So Republicans control the House and the Senate and 439 00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:47,359 Speaker 3: of course the Presidency as well, so ball is in 440 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,000 Speaker 3: their court. It's in the court of Republican leadership to 441 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:51,119 Speaker 3: make some of this happen. 442 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:54,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, and there's some interesting things going on with Gallaine 443 00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 2: Maxwell right at this point, because she had an appeal 444 00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:01,200 Speaker 2: all the way up to the Supreme Court that had 445 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:05,359 Speaker 2: gotten sort of pushed off till now where the government 446 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 2: had to respond to how they were handling this appeal. 447 00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:12,560 Speaker 2: And basically, I mean, it's like, like, this woman is 448 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:16,159 Speaker 2: a horrifying sex criminal and implicated in every way in 449 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:20,040 Speaker 2: this web of you know, like a pyramid scheme of 450 00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:25,640 Speaker 2: pedophilia and molestation. She should justifiably to spend the rest 451 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 2: of her life in prison. But what she's saying is, hey, 452 00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 2: you guys, the government made this sweetheart deal with Jeffrey 453 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:36,440 Speaker 2: Epstein down in Florida under Alex Acosta, who of course 454 00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:39,679 Speaker 2: ends up being Trump's labor secretary. Part of that deal 455 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 2: was that all of the co conspirators of Jeffrey Epstein 456 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:45,679 Speaker 2: are off the hook forever. And I was one of 457 00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:48,080 Speaker 2: those co conspirators. So how can you really prosecute me? 458 00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 2: How can you throw me in prison when you guys 459 00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:54,760 Speaker 2: agreed to this deal that said anyone who was affiliated 460 00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:57,960 Speaker 2: with that Stein and implicated in these crimes was off 461 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 2: the hook. So that's the appeal that she's making the 462 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 2: Supreme courtive. We got an interesting statement from her family 463 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:08,200 Speaker 2: that we can put up on the screen here. They say, 464 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 2: our sister Glaine did not receive a fair trial. Her 465 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:12,560 Speaker 2: legal team continues to fight her case in the courts 466 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 2: and will file its reply in short order the government's 467 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:17,840 Speaker 2: opposition in the US Supreme Court if necessary. In due course, 468 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:20,040 Speaker 2: they'll also file a writ of habeas corpus in the U. 469 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,720 Speaker 2: S District Court SDN. Why This allows her to challenge 470 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:25,399 Speaker 2: her imprisonment on the basis of new evidence, such as 471 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:28,680 Speaker 2: government misconduct that would have likely changed the trial's outcome. 472 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 2: Following the government's response, David Oscar Marcus, Council of Record 473 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:33,800 Speaker 2: for our sister and her petition of the US Supreme Court, 474 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:37,639 Speaker 2: had this comment quote, I'd be surprised if President Trump 475 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,480 Speaker 2: knew his lawyers were asked in the Supreme Court to 476 00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:42,919 Speaker 2: let the government break a deal. And this is in 477 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:45,919 Speaker 2: reference to that sweetheart deal that alex acostamide. He's the 478 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:49,120 Speaker 2: ultimate deal maker, and I'm sure he'd agree that when 479 00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:51,800 Speaker 2: the US gives its word, it should keep it. With 480 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 2: all the talk about who's being prosecuted and who isn't, 481 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:59,480 Speaker 2: it's especially unfair that Gleainne Maxwell remains in prison based 482 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:02,920 Speaker 2: on a prompt the US government made and broke. These 483 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:06,479 Speaker 2: are sentiments, the family says, with which we profoundly concur 484 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 2: so a sort of direct appeal there to Trump himself, who, 485 00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:12,719 Speaker 2: of course, we played you know, some of the footage 486 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:16,240 Speaker 2: from yesterday. Whenever he's gotten asked about Glaide Maxwell and 487 00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:19,119 Speaker 2: what he wants to happen for her trial, for her 488 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:21,480 Speaker 2: being in prison, he always says, well, I wish her well. 489 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:24,480 Speaker 2: And we also have you know reporting that allegedly he 490 00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:26,920 Speaker 2: was considering a pardon for her because he was concerned 491 00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:29,959 Speaker 2: about what potential information she may have. 492 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:33,919 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is a really interesting development because if she 493 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:38,119 Speaker 3: can successfully make this case and people have questions I 494 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:41,679 Speaker 3: think rightfully about the way her trial was conducted, not 495 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:45,080 Speaker 3: because it was too harsh on Gallaide Maxwell and too 496 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:48,240 Speaker 3: focused on locking her up, but rather than the other directions. 497 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:52,560 Speaker 3: So either way, if she's able to get this taken seriously, 498 00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:57,440 Speaker 3: that this opens up a lot. And it actually comports 499 00:24:57,440 --> 00:24:59,880 Speaker 3: with the story in The Daily Mail that we covered 500 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:04,119 Speaker 3: earlier this week Crystal about how Glaine Maxwell is telegraphing 501 00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 3: through an anonymous source to the Daily Mail that she 502 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:09,640 Speaker 3: would be willing to talk. Again, you have to take 503 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:11,520 Speaker 3: it with a giant grain of salt, but it seems 504 00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:15,679 Speaker 3: more and more like this is actually plausible that we 505 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:17,760 Speaker 3: would start to hear directly from her. 506 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:18,640 Speaker 4: Yeah. 507 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:22,359 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, if she does have some damaging information 508 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:26,000 Speaker 2: about the president, it's an intelligent chess move because if 509 00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 2: she's she's obviously looking to posture to try to get 510 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:32,720 Speaker 2: that pardon from Trump. And so this is sort of 511 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 2: the threat of hey, I could I could testify to 512 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 2: Congress and you know, right now, sure Republicans have control 513 00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:41,680 Speaker 2: of the House in the Senate, but very very I 514 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 2: would say, likely after the midterms, Democrats are going to 515 00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 2: at least have control of the House. So you know, 516 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:51,800 Speaker 2: that opens up a whole other world of possibilities. And 517 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:54,440 Speaker 2: so I think there's some you know, some some tactical 518 00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:58,720 Speaker 2: chess playing going on here from the Glaine Maxwell side. 519 00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:00,200 Speaker 2: And the last thing I'll say about this, this is 520 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:05,920 Speaker 2: just underscores how absolutely absurdly, outrageously disgusting that sweetheart deal 521 00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:09,639 Speaker 2: was that it would even be theoretically possible that this 522 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,359 Speaker 2: woman could get off the hook because of this deal 523 00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:14,679 Speaker 2: that was made. And just so people recall, I mean, 524 00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:16,959 Speaker 2: Epstein got a slap on the wrist, you know it 525 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:21,040 Speaker 2: was the charges were pretty minor charges. He served a 526 00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:24,600 Speaker 2: sentence out being able to leave on quote unquote work 527 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 2: release for twelve hours a day where he was able 528 00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:30,159 Speaker 2: to go and do whatever he wanted. I think he 529 00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 2: served about thirteen months on that cushy work release situation 530 00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:36,439 Speaker 2: where his cell door was open, he had a TV, 531 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:39,960 Speaker 2: he could come and go, and then after thirteen months 532 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:44,439 Speaker 2: he just was out. I mean, he reporting suggests that 533 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:46,119 Speaker 2: even though he was supposed to be just in his 534 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 2: house like under you know, home confinement, he was traveling 535 00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:53,040 Speaker 2: the world and right back to doing everything that he 536 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:57,640 Speaker 2: wanted to do. And when the law enforcement like maybe 537 00:26:57,680 --> 00:26:59,040 Speaker 2: that I'm not sure if it was the FBI. I 538 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:01,680 Speaker 2: don't want to implicate the wrong law enforcement agency here, 539 00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:03,360 Speaker 2: but when they were told, Hey, this guy is leaving, 540 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:05,040 Speaker 2: he's not staying on home confinement, they were like, Ah, 541 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:07,679 Speaker 2: he's a celebrity. What can we do, He's a celebrity, 542 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:08,280 Speaker 2: what can we do? 543 00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:13,399 Speaker 3: Many such cases, indeed, many such cases sadly, So let's 544 00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:15,560 Speaker 3: take a look at a nine. 545 00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:18,440 Speaker 4: This is Scott Jennings. Crystal. 546 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:21,440 Speaker 3: We were talking about how some people who are sort 547 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:23,760 Speaker 3: of in situations where, yeah, I feel like you can 548 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:28,399 Speaker 3: tell people who just don't care about Epstein, like they 549 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:31,840 Speaker 3: think it's a weird conspiracy theory and it's not something 550 00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:33,640 Speaker 3: that's on the radar that they've spent a great deal 551 00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:35,720 Speaker 3: of time take thinking about, and now they're forced to 552 00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:37,480 Speaker 3: kind of talk about it a lot over the course 553 00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:38,560 Speaker 3: of the last week. 554 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:40,439 Speaker 4: On TV or radio or wherever. 555 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:42,720 Speaker 3: And I think maybe you could put Scott Jennings in 556 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:46,880 Speaker 3: that category. And here's where Scott Jennings and other Republicans 557 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:47,920 Speaker 3: are landing. 558 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:48,600 Speaker 4: This is a nine. 559 00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:50,560 Speaker 11: I think it as an article of faith for many 560 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,160 Speaker 11: years that what was that, you know, that the idea 561 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:56,399 Speaker 11: that there's information that we're not seeing as the general public, 562 00:27:56,440 --> 00:28:00,200 Speaker 11: and people said that brought into it. And so Donald 563 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:03,199 Speaker 11: Trump wins the election. He appoints Pam Bondi, he appoints 564 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,639 Speaker 11: Dan Bungino, he points Cash Ptel. These are all people 565 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:09,000 Speaker 11: that this same audience has, you know, confidence in, We 566 00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 11: trust their judgment, and I think it's just hard sometimes 567 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:15,000 Speaker 11: to believe something for a long time and then be told, 568 00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:17,880 Speaker 11: you know what, what we believed is not the case. 569 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 11: There are certainly people that have legitimate questions about what happened. 570 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 11: I mean, I've heard now two lawyers, both your guest 571 00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:25,480 Speaker 11: tonight and Arthur Idolla, who I was on with Friday night, 572 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 11: both raised questions about whether they believe he even committed suicide. 573 00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:32,080 Speaker 11: So you can see they're actually, you know, in the 574 00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:35,200 Speaker 11: no people who are still raising legitimate questions about this case. 575 00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:36,880 Speaker 11: So you can see why the general public would also 576 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 11: have those questions. At the same time, you know, if 577 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:41,400 Speaker 11: you vote for Donald Trump and you have trust in 578 00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:43,960 Speaker 11: his judgment and the people he's appointed, at some point 579 00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 11: you have to trust their judgment. I mean, you put 580 00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:47,680 Speaker 11: them in charge of this, and I think what Doug 581 00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:50,640 Speaker 11: said is important to know the Biden people had this stuff, 582 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:53,400 Speaker 11: if there was something incriminating about trumpet would have come out. 583 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:55,160 Speaker 11: And also, now the Trump people have this stuff, and 584 00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:58,120 Speaker 11: there's something incriminating about you know, Bill Gates or Bill Clinton, 585 00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:00,680 Speaker 11: it would certainly have come out. And so I guess 586 00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:03,000 Speaker 11: it's some juncture. If you trust the people that you 587 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 11: voted for, you trust the people that you voted for. 588 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:08,400 Speaker 3: Just quickly on that point, Crystal, I've heard it a 589 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:11,320 Speaker 3: couple of times that if the Biden administration had something 590 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:13,720 Speaker 3: on Donald Trump, don't you think it would have come out. 591 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:15,760 Speaker 3: That's a line actually that a lot of Republicans have 592 00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 3: used in recent days, and I think you can logically 593 00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 3: it's like, okay, and maybe there's something to that, but 594 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:26,080 Speaker 3: then it's like, actually there. I mean, these political elite 595 00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:30,600 Speaker 3: circles are fairly small, and it's possible that whatever implicated 596 00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:35,000 Speaker 3: Donald Trump would also implicate Democratic donors, would also implicate 597 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 3: power brokers who are in dem circle, as Donald Trump 598 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:43,000 Speaker 3: himself was in like dem powerbroker circles in the eighties 599 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:45,520 Speaker 3: and nineties, Like he was somebody who was giving money 600 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:49,560 Speaker 3: to Democrats. So it's actually there's I see why they're 601 00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 3: rolling with that line. But if there's a bunch of 602 00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:56,800 Speaker 3: information in the files that are devastating for the Clintons 603 00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:00,880 Speaker 3: at the same time that they're devastating to Donald Trump potentially, 604 00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 3: that to me actually doesn't make a lot of sense. 605 00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:06,840 Speaker 2: Well, not to mention if it is in fact a 606 00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:10,960 Speaker 2: Masad blackmail ring operation, yeah then yeah, Joe Biden is 607 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:13,160 Speaker 2: not going to be part of exposing that, right because 608 00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:16,800 Speaker 2: he's died in the woul Zionist So I think there are. 609 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:19,280 Speaker 3: Even if and this is the point that even if 610 00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 3: it is what they always thought, they hadn't the steels 611 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:24,240 Speaker 3: us yea, even if it's like Trump doing something disgusting 612 00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 3: and whatever, they're still we've talked about this. They're still 613 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:32,040 Speaker 3: being asked to say, if you're you know, Biden, and 614 00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:35,520 Speaker 3: you are an establishment Democrat and you are thinking you 615 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:38,920 Speaker 3: protect Macad and protect the state of Israel, or you 616 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:45,960 Speaker 3: expose Donald Trump doing something sexually horrifying, they're going to 617 00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:49,120 Speaker 3: choose in one direction over the other, even though that 618 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:53,080 Speaker 3: seems insane given all of the different political maneuvers they took. 619 00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:56,840 Speaker 3: It's just a question of like their personal cost benefit analysis, 620 00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:59,040 Speaker 3: and I actually feel like we know where they come 621 00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 3: down on that when we're talking talking about like potential 622 00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:03,560 Speaker 3: nuclear war, world affairs, and foreign policy. 623 00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 2: Joe Biden was willing to lose his reelection in order 624 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:12,480 Speaker 2: to continue backing Israel's genocide. There's apparently nothing that he's 625 00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:15,640 Speaker 2: not willing to do for that country. And so I 626 00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 2: don't think it's hard to you know, I don't think 627 00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:20,280 Speaker 2: it's hard to imagine that if that, in fact is 628 00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:22,440 Speaker 2: the truth of what's going on here, that yeah, he 629 00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:25,280 Speaker 2: would not be the one to expose that. And it's 630 00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 2: also worth remembering too, I mean, Joe Biden was in 631 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 2: Washington for a long ass time before he was president 632 00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:33,280 Speaker 2: in the United States, including in the capacity or in 633 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:36,560 Speaker 2: the capacity as Vice president of the United States. So 634 00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:40,040 Speaker 2: I don't it's very plausible that he, you know, has 635 00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 2: known the truth of what is going on there for 636 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 2: a long time and also wouldn't want it exposed. That 637 00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:47,880 Speaker 2: you know, nobody has ever like he didn't show up 638 00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:50,440 Speaker 2: in the flight logs or anything. But perhaps he's implicated 639 00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:53,000 Speaker 2: in terms of knowing for a while that this was 640 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:54,880 Speaker 2: the truth of what was going on. Now this is 641 00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:56,680 Speaker 2: all you know? Now I'm really getting out there in 642 00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:59,480 Speaker 2: terms of speculation land. But I'm just trying to make 643 00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:02,000 Speaker 2: the point that it's not hard to imagine a set 644 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:05,080 Speaker 2: of circumstances in which Joe Biden is also not interested 645 00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:08,360 Speaker 2: in exposing the truth of what's going on here, and 646 00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:11,560 Speaker 2: where he would himself take on some political damage for 647 00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 2: doing so, or at the very least undercut his favorite 648 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:17,240 Speaker 2: national ally. 649 00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:25,400 Speaker 3: Joe Rogan reacted to this fiasco from the Trump administration 650 00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 3: in recent days where there's just been a seesaw ping 651 00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:32,920 Speaker 3: pong back and forth. What is actually going on? What 652 00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:35,360 Speaker 3: they said was going on? And let's take a look 653 00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:39,600 Speaker 3: at how Rogan reacted to the chaos in recent days. 654 00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 4: We can roll this a ten. 655 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:44,000 Speaker 7: They've got videotape and all of a sudden, they don't 656 00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:46,280 Speaker 7: you know, you have the director of the FBI on 657 00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:49,560 Speaker 7: this show saying there's no ta if there was nothing 658 00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 7: you're looking for is on those tapes? 659 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:51,440 Speaker 12: Like what? 660 00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:54,960 Speaker 7: Why did they say there was thousands of hours of 661 00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:57,680 Speaker 7: tapes of people doing horrible shit? Why did they say that? 662 00:32:57,800 --> 00:32:57,920 Speaker 6: Right? 663 00:32:58,040 --> 00:32:59,520 Speaker 7: Didn't Pam BONDI say. 664 00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:01,040 Speaker 2: That what you're talking about?

Oh okay, okay, 675 00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:23,000 Speaker 7: I mean, what am I gonna do? I'm gonna push back. No, 676 00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:25,920 Speaker 7: of course, obviously he's saying what he has to say. 677 00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:30,000 Speaker 7: Mystery surrounds the Jeffrey Epstein files after Bondi claims tens 678 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:34,240 Speaker 7: of thousands of videos tens of thousands, Jesus Christ, I'll 679 00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 7: tell you what. 680 00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:36,840 Speaker 13: Chill. 681 00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:40,720 Speaker 7: Oh my god, was reviewing tens of thousands of videos 682 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:46,240 Speaker 7: the wealthy financial financier with children or child porn. The 683 00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:48,640 Speaker 7: comment meant made the reporters of the White House days 684 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:51,800 Speaker 7: after a similar remark to a stranger with a hidden 685 00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:54,560 Speaker 7: camera raised the stakes for President Donald Trump's administration to 686 00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:58,240 Speaker 7: prove it has in its possession previously unseen compelling documents 687 00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:02,080 Speaker 7: or just bar and everybody forgets just bombing ran, Yeah, 688 00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:03,200 Speaker 7: everybody forgets about it. 689 00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:04,440 Speaker 4: Krystal, what do you make of that? 690 00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:09,000 Speaker 2: Well, that last piece, I'm fearful he may be correct 691 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:11,719 Speaker 2: about because you know, I think it's entirely possible that 692 00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:15,399 Speaker 2: Trump does do something wild, like potentially Bombaran or something 693 00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:18,960 Speaker 2: equivalent in order to get people to change focus, because 694 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:22,239 Speaker 2: that is his that is his approach. But yeah, I 695 00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:26,280 Speaker 2: mean someone like Rogan, I think the the bro podcasters, 696 00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:28,600 Speaker 2: they are not going to be on board for this 697 00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:31,520 Speaker 2: level of gaslighting on something that they also, you know, 698 00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:34,319 Speaker 2: we're focused on for a long time. Now does that 699 00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:36,520 Speaker 2: make a full turn on Trump? We know that Joe 700 00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:40,120 Speaker 2: just had dinner with Trump and express some concerns about 701 00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:43,480 Speaker 2: the direction with regard to the immigration policy, concerns that 702 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:47,320 Speaker 2: were apparently immediately ignored. But you know, I think people 703 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:51,880 Speaker 2: who are die hard maga Republicans are likely ultimately gonna 704 00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:54,280 Speaker 2: buy the like, we just got to trust Trump because 705 00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:56,160 Speaker 2: he's Trump and that's who we voted for and this 706 00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:58,359 Speaker 2: is our guy. But I think people who are more 707 00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:01,640 Speaker 2: in the sort of like independent and they voted for 708 00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:07,040 Speaker 2: Trump for the first time or you know whatever, or 709 00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:11,480 Speaker 2: less like die hard maga cultist, I think this really 710 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:14,239 Speaker 2: does speak to this administration is not going the way 711 00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:15,960 Speaker 2: I thought. This man is not the man I hoped 712 00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:21,520 Speaker 2: he would be. This cuts so hard against his I'm 713 00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:25,400 Speaker 2: the outsider posture, which, of course, you know, I've always 714 00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:28,640 Speaker 2: thought his positioning himself as an outsider was sort of preposterous. 715 00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:30,719 Speaker 2: But that is the way that he positioned himself, and 716 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:32,959 Speaker 2: that is the way that he was able to gain 717 00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:36,279 Speaker 2: so much traction. And this, for anyone who has their 718 00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:41,239 Speaker 2: eyes open, just utterly destroys that positioning. We played with 719 00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:43,080 Speaker 2: sagera on Monday. I don't know if you saw this 720 00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:46,560 Speaker 2: guy at the TPUSA conference who was talking to Steve 721 00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:49,120 Speaker 2: Bannon and he was like, Trump is the deep state. 722 00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:51,440 Speaker 2: Now he is the deep state? And Bannon was like what. 723 00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:54,760 Speaker 2: But there are going to be some number of people 724 00:35:54,800 --> 00:35:57,280 Speaker 2: who just feel completely jaded, And I think it probably 725 00:35:57,280 --> 00:36:01,160 Speaker 2: gets channeled into a significant amount of nihilism if there 726 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:04,239 Speaker 2: isn't an eating political project that people really can believe in. 727 00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:05,919 Speaker 4: You know, I have a couple of thoughts on that one. 728 00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 3: Is there are I mean, yes, like some hardcore MAGA people. 729 00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:12,839 Speaker 3: We played the Scott Jennings clip earlier. I wouldn't consider 730 00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:14,799 Speaker 3: him hardcore magacas. It comes from McConnell world. 731 00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:17,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a Mitch McConnell guy. He's but he's just 732 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:18,799 Speaker 2: gonna do what he needs to do. 733 00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:23,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, like Norman Republicans who embrace Maga now 734 00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:27,399 Speaker 3: either just like we're moving on, it's trusted. It's about 735 00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:30,200 Speaker 3: trusting Trump, like a Mike Johnson's, Scott Jennings, those types 736 00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:33,600 Speaker 3: of guys moving in that direction. On the other hand, 737 00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:38,440 Speaker 3: I don't think we should discount that some of these podcasters. 738 00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:40,760 Speaker 3: I'm not talking about Rogan. We have a canvas Owen's 739 00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:42,680 Speaker 3: clip that we're about to play. But I think some 740 00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:48,920 Speaker 3: of these podcasters have put significant personal like the personal 741 00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:52,719 Speaker 3: reputational stakes on the line for years about Epstein. They 742 00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:57,320 Speaker 3: know there's hours of them talking about on the Internet, 743 00:36:57,520 --> 00:37:01,839 Speaker 3: and even just like from a cynical, calculated perspective, they 744 00:37:01,960 --> 00:37:07,799 Speaker 3: are like aware that they have to keep on the 745 00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:11,640 Speaker 3: same consistent point about Jeffrey Epstein. Otherwise they I mean, 746 00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:16,200 Speaker 3: it's just it's too glaring of it's too glaring of 747 00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:16,800 Speaker 3: a contrast. 748 00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:19,600 Speaker 4: So I think there is something to be said for that. 749 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:22,040 Speaker 4: I think even like Benny. 750 00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:25,720 Speaker 3: Benny is an example who has been on the Epstein 751 00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:29,160 Speaker 3: case like a dog with a bone for years, and 752 00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:34,040 Speaker 3: let's just say, from a cynical perspective, Benny was like 753 00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:38,120 Speaker 3: this is bad for the Trump administration. I really love 754 00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:41,480 Speaker 3: Donald Trump. I've always trusted Donald Trump. Now there are 755 00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:45,759 Speaker 3: like weeks, months, years of tapes of him talking about 756 00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:50,200 Speaker 3: how serious the Epstein case was in very specific terms, 757 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:54,880 Speaker 3: about why Democrats and why the FBI, why the Feds 758 00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:57,520 Speaker 3: don't want more information to come out. So it just 759 00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:00,480 Speaker 3: also is like, I just don't think people on the 760 00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:05,359 Speaker 3: outside should underestimate how powerful that is because it has 761 00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:08,280 Speaker 3: been such a fixture of the podcast world. 762 00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:11,759 Speaker 4: And that's also why in substance it. 763 00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:14,839 Speaker 3: Matters to people, because it has been seen rightfully as 764 00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:20,840 Speaker 3: the ultimate proxy issue of the insider versus outsider dynamic 765 00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:22,839 Speaker 3: and NBC News talk to a girl at the Turning 766 00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:25,759 Speaker 3: Point summit who said it exactly like that, basically put 767 00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:28,640 Speaker 3: it exactly in those terms, just saying I thought he 768 00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:30,400 Speaker 3: was the outsider. 769 00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:32,440 Speaker 4: Now it looks like he's protecting the insiders. 770 00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:37,320 Speaker 3: Trump pitched himself as this outsider who was the most 771 00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:40,160 Speaker 3: compelling outsider because he was also kind of an insider 772 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:42,840 Speaker 3: who knew where the bodies were buried and would know, 773 00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:46,880 Speaker 3: you know, where to look, and would be able to 774 00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:50,960 Speaker 3: direct people to say, transparency here, transparency there, and again, 775 00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:52,880 Speaker 3: you know, you and I can debate whether or not 776 00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:56,480 Speaker 3: that was ever plausible or legitimate. But people who work 777 00:38:56,760 --> 00:38:59,839 Speaker 3: in jobs that don't involve doing what we do and 778 00:38:59,880 --> 00:39:04,760 Speaker 3: like obsessing over the stuff because they have normal, wonderful lives, 779 00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:06,920 Speaker 3: are like, Okay, this. 780 00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:07,879 Speaker 4: Guy is right. 781 00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:11,399 Speaker 3: He tells me that I shouldn't trust any of these 782 00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:15,239 Speaker 3: other people, and that's correct. He is correctly saying you 783 00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:17,920 Speaker 3: can't trust the Clintons, you can't trust the Bidens, you 784 00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:21,840 Speaker 3: can't trust the Bushes. And because he earned people's trust 785 00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:24,880 Speaker 3: by saying correctly that they couldn't trust those people, some 786 00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:27,720 Speaker 3: people just by default put their trust in Donald Trump. 787 00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:33,920 Speaker 3: And this is something that actually undermines that very pitch 788 00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:36,799 Speaker 3: from him about why you should trust him and not them. 789 00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:39,759 Speaker 2: Well, and that's why I call it as another sort 790 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:43,399 Speaker 2: of humiliation ritual. It really is another test how far 791 00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:45,960 Speaker 2: will you go? Do you have any principles? Do you 792 00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:49,000 Speaker 2: have any consistency? You know, you've got hours of tape 793 00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:50,759 Speaker 2: out there of you saying this is a big deal 794 00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:52,080 Speaker 2: and this is the cover up, and we have to 795 00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:54,120 Speaker 2: get to the truth of what's going on, and there's 796 00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:58,160 Speaker 2: you know, this is an elites sex crimes ring where 797 00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:01,880 Speaker 2: powerful people have been and you know, skating by and 798 00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:04,960 Speaker 2: we need accountability and we need justice. Can I get 799 00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:07,319 Speaker 2: you two over the course of a week, just turn 800 00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:09,400 Speaker 2: on a dime and repudiate all that and say I 801 00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:12,480 Speaker 2: trust Trump. The other thing it makes me think of 802 00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:14,879 Speaker 2: Emily and I wonder if you see any parallels here 803 00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:17,839 Speaker 2: as well, is go way back to grab or by 804 00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:22,360 Speaker 2: the pussy, where Republicans at that time had been posturing 805 00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:26,879 Speaker 2: for years, really going back to the Clinton impeachment of 806 00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:32,520 Speaker 2: like morals and character in a presidential candidate matters. You know, 807 00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:37,239 Speaker 2: we are the ethical party of family values, and you've 808 00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:40,200 Speaker 2: got Mike Pence on the ticket, who is like the 809 00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:46,200 Speaker 2: emblem of that sort of you know, evangelical Christian coalition 810 00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:49,239 Speaker 2: and the you know, importance of family values. And they 811 00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:52,200 Speaker 2: go to all these family values conferences every year and 812 00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:54,840 Speaker 2: it's like, all right, here's your guy, what are you 813 00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:57,799 Speaker 2: gonna do? And there was turmoil, you know, I mean, 814 00:40:57,840 --> 00:41:00,520 Speaker 2: this is at a time when it looked like Trump 815 00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:02,759 Speaker 2: was going to get wallopped by Hillary Clinton. That's what 816 00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:04,799 Speaker 2: the poll suggested, was that he was going to go 817 00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:09,280 Speaker 2: down in flames. And so that was you know, okay, well, 818 00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:15,280 Speaker 2: are you going to push aside, you're decades long supposed 819 00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:19,520 Speaker 2: commitment to like morals and ethics, specifically around family values 820 00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:21,759 Speaker 2: in a presidential candidate. Are you going to suck it 821 00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:23,840 Speaker 2: up and get on board and say this is a 822 00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:26,520 Speaker 2: locker room talk and there's nothing to see here and 823 00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:30,799 Speaker 2: we know ultimately where they all fell. Now, here's one 824 00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:32,920 Speaker 2: thing I will say to your point about what is 825 00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:35,360 Speaker 2: a little different. Now. First of all, the media landscape 826 00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:37,920 Speaker 2: is completely transformed from that moment. It is not the 827 00:41:37,920 --> 00:41:42,480 Speaker 2: same media landscape whatsoever. Second of all, Trump may be 828 00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:45,160 Speaker 2: a lame duck. We don't know, but I think many 829 00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:47,480 Speaker 2: people probably assume that he only has a few more 830 00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:49,200 Speaker 2: years in the presidency and then there's going to be 831 00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:52,279 Speaker 2: some post Trump Republican party. I personally think that's actually 832 00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:53,960 Speaker 2: foolish to think that that's the case, but I'm sure 833 00:41:53,960 --> 00:41:57,680 Speaker 2: many people think that that's the case. Number Three, you 834 00:41:57,840 --> 00:42:02,600 Speaker 2: have now a lane sort of like the you know, 835 00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:04,680 Speaker 2: the Jimmy Dore lane on the left of like I'm 836 00:42:04,680 --> 00:42:07,040 Speaker 2: just going to be critical of everyone all the time 837 00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:09,360 Speaker 2: and fu like sort of like a nihilistic lane that 838 00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:11,319 Speaker 2: has opened up on the right as well. And Fwent 839 00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:13,839 Speaker 2: has is a perfect example of that. And I think 840 00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:17,040 Speaker 2: Candice is flirting with that lane as well. And so 841 00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:19,879 Speaker 2: in terms of just sort of where can I go 842 00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:24,160 Speaker 2: and get an audience, they have demonstrated Fwent has in 843 00:42:24,160 --> 00:42:26,880 Speaker 2: particular is demonstrated, and I think Tucker also is starting 844 00:42:26,880 --> 00:42:29,120 Speaker 2: to demonstrate that as well, although I question his actual 845 00:42:29,160 --> 00:42:31,360 Speaker 2: independence from Trump and will put that aside for the moment. 846 00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:35,040 Speaker 2: Fet Do says demonstrate like, oh, you can have an audience, 847 00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:37,799 Speaker 2: you can make money, and you can be you know, 848 00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:41,680 Speaker 2: influential and have clout without always towing the line. And 849 00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:44,200 Speaker 2: so that opens up a new like sort of business 850 00:42:44,239 --> 00:42:48,640 Speaker 2: possibility for the podcast, the right wing podcast or world 851 00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:51,880 Speaker 2: that didn't necessarily exist before, where it really was just 852 00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:54,359 Speaker 2: sort of like you have to support whatever Trump does 853 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:57,800 Speaker 2: and that's your best way to make money, have power, 854 00:42:57,840 --> 00:43:01,400 Speaker 2: have influence, have clout, et cetera. So those things do 855 00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:04,840 Speaker 2: create some different dynamics than we saw back in twenty sixteen. 856 00:43:05,120 --> 00:43:07,000 Speaker 2: But that is what it reminds me of, is that 857 00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:11,000 Speaker 2: you know, grabber by the Pussy moment where Republicans were 858 00:43:11,040 --> 00:43:15,040 Speaker 2: forced to completely do a one to eighty on their 859 00:43:15,239 --> 00:43:18,920 Speaker 2: you know, vociferously held purported longtime values. 860 00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:21,520 Speaker 3: What's interesting about that too is it, I think goes 861 00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:25,520 Speaker 3: a long way towards explaining Trump, who's a very media 862 00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:29,040 Speaker 3: savvy man, landing on this new line of defense, which 863 00:43:29,080 --> 00:43:33,640 Speaker 3: is the files were cooked up by the Biden administration, 864 00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:37,040 Speaker 3: by Komy, by the deep state, essentially because the effort 865 00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:39,880 Speaker 3: there is to muddy the waters. A lot of these 866 00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:45,479 Speaker 3: podcast world people are very sympathetic to Trump in that 867 00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:49,600 Speaker 3: sort of quest to take down people, or let's just say, 868 00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:52,760 Speaker 3: in his war against like this so called deep state. 869 00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:57,040 Speaker 3: And some of this is for legitimate reasons. There was 870 00:43:57,080 --> 00:43:59,319 Speaker 3: a lot of funny business going on, and we've covered 871 00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:02,400 Speaker 3: a lot of it here, so they're already kind of 872 00:44:02,440 --> 00:44:06,239 Speaker 3: primed to see that as true, to believe that is 873 00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:10,880 Speaker 3: true because of the last decade. And that means if 874 00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:13,480 Speaker 3: Donald Trump is sort of he thinks he can plant 875 00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:16,880 Speaker 3: that seed money the waters and say, hey, maybe actually 876 00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:19,120 Speaker 3: this is all coming from the deep state. It's something 877 00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:22,760 Speaker 3: that Alex Jones was talking about a little bit last week, 878 00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:26,239 Speaker 3: saying that he saw, and we're gonna get to Alex 879 00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:30,480 Speaker 3: Jones in just a moment, he saw a possibility and 880 00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:36,120 Speaker 3: evidence of the situation where Trump was in control of 881 00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:39,720 Speaker 3: the Epstein dirt and using that to control the deep state. 882 00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:43,319 Speaker 3: He was sort of reversed blackmailing the deep state with 883 00:44:43,360 --> 00:44:44,800 Speaker 3: his Epstein information. 884 00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:45,560 Speaker 2: And classic eight. 885 00:44:49,080 --> 00:44:51,439 Speaker 4: Let's actually get to a twelve here. 886 00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:55,200 Speaker 3: This is more reaction from Alex Jones, who has really 887 00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:58,040 Speaker 3: been going through it in the last week. 888 00:44:58,520 --> 00:45:01,239 Speaker 12: I'm getting really concerned and here at this point because 889 00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:03,640 Speaker 12: the flip flopping and the one eightying and then going 890 00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:06,960 Speaker 12: back and going back is just the biggest train wrack 891 00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:10,400 Speaker 12: I've ever seen. And it's not in character for you 892 00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:12,640 Speaker 12: to be acting like this. So we want your agenda succeed. 893 00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:14,640 Speaker 12: I've done deep research every soody involved with Epstein in 894 00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:17,640 Speaker 12: criminal activity, So why are you acting like this. You've 895 00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:19,560 Speaker 12: made a deal with the establishment to leave you alone? 896 00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:22,680 Speaker 12: Have they rolled over US intelligence we know is involved 897 00:45:22,680 --> 00:45:26,440 Speaker 12: besides CIA and I six We already know that. But 898 00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:28,839 Speaker 12: instead you just continue to say nothing to see here 899 00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:31,520 Speaker 12: and move along though, go ahead and release information, but 900 00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:34,920 Speaker 12: there's no information, release contradition or contradiction, flip flopping and 901 00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:38,720 Speaker 12: a flip flopping one eight one eighties on one eighties. Jesus, 902 00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:42,000 Speaker 12: I'm on a roller coaster here. And then oh, it's 903 00:45:42,040 --> 00:45:44,640 Speaker 12: only fake news is concerned? Oh, like MGG and duck 904 00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:48,320 Speaker 12: or Carlson and myself and Joe Rogan and the American people. 905 00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:51,800 Speaker 12: This is something that finally got our attention. People finally 906 00:45:52,040 --> 00:45:54,759 Speaker 12: woke up to this. PEO will finally understand, you know, 907 00:45:54,920 --> 00:45:57,200 Speaker 12: a winno in the deep state with all this, and 908 00:45:57,280 --> 00:46:00,200 Speaker 12: so you signing on to this and flip flopping. Is 909 00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:05,480 Speaker 12: this self harming? I mean, please, President Trump stop, if 910 00:46:05,480 --> 00:46:10,399 Speaker 12: you want it to go away, just be quiet. It's suck. 911 00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:12,359 Speaker 12: There's a gun to his head saying you better come 912 00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:15,359 Speaker 12: out and say no, this exists or we'll release it. 913 00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:19,000 Speaker 12: It's bad. It's getting works by the minute. And I 914 00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:21,080 Speaker 12: support you, but we built the movement you wrote in on. 915 00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:22,880 Speaker 12: You're not the move but you just surfed in on it. 916 00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:25,239 Speaker 12: And I'm telling you, man, the Democrats we know are 917 00:46:25,239 --> 00:46:27,520 Speaker 12: pure well, my god, they promote pedophilia and everything openly. 918 00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:30,800 Speaker 12: So why the hell are you acting like this? Please 919 00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:32,240 Speaker 12: stop now. 920 00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:36,279 Speaker 3: So Crystal, let's go ahead and roll candas owns as well, 921 00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:38,359 Speaker 3: and then break down what we're seeing for both of them. 922 00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:41,719 Speaker 14: This is a eleven nothing to see here. Jeffrey Epstein. 923 00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:44,960 Speaker 14: You see, we're not saying that you're guilty, but you 924 00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:47,520 Speaker 14: are right now guilty of gaslighting the public. We're not 925 00:46:47,560 --> 00:46:49,440 Speaker 14: saying that you are in the files, and again, I 926 00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:51,600 Speaker 14: would like to trust I certainly don't believe that, but 927 00:46:51,640 --> 00:46:54,120 Speaker 14: it is very clear that you are not calling the 928 00:46:54,160 --> 00:46:57,839 Speaker 14: shots on the Jeffrey Epstein tobackle, and you're essentially being 929 00:46:58,000 --> 00:47:02,360 Speaker 14: used to try to contry control the public reaction to 930 00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:05,680 Speaker 14: those files not being released. What is happening now is 931 00:47:05,719 --> 00:47:08,600 Speaker 14: it seems like you think your base is stupid. 932 00:47:08,920 --> 00:47:09,520 Speaker 4: That's how I feel. 933 00:47:09,560 --> 00:47:13,840 Speaker 14: I feel like Trump thinks his base is stupid. Or again, 934 00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:16,680 Speaker 14: because I don't think he's pressing send on these messages, 935 00:47:17,239 --> 00:47:20,440 Speaker 14: the people around him certainly think that Trump is stupid 936 00:47:20,520 --> 00:47:22,719 Speaker 14: and that shouldn't survive. Surprise you, given the fact that 937 00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:25,399 Speaker 14: all of these people were never Trump, and they think, 938 00:47:25,719 --> 00:47:27,600 Speaker 14: as they thought that Trump was too stupid to be president, 939 00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:30,719 Speaker 14: that his base is too stupid to see through the 940 00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:32,080 Speaker 14: lies that they are telling right now. 941 00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:34,440 Speaker 4: And so what are they gonna do? 942 00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:35,880 Speaker 14: What is the last thing they're gonna do now with 943 00:47:35,920 --> 00:47:39,120 Speaker 14: the Epstein stuff while we're still reacting to it. Oh, operation, 944 00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:42,160 Speaker 14: just give them more war? Yeah, war as a distraction. 945 00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:44,279 Speaker 14: Never mind, we can't talk about Epstein because guys, guess, 946 00:47:44,280 --> 00:47:47,440 Speaker 14: while look at this headline Trump announces an aggressive or 947 00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:50,759 Speaker 14: Trump is too announced an aggressive Ukraine weapons plan. Yeah, 948 00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:53,360 Speaker 14: he already indicated that in that same press conference that 949 00:47:53,400 --> 00:47:57,239 Speaker 14: there's just gonna be more weapons sent to Ukraine. They're 950 00:47:57,239 --> 00:47:59,080 Speaker 14: gonna attack Rush. Now we're just gonna have to have 951 00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:02,480 Speaker 14: a world war and another reset. I guess do you 952 00:48:02,520 --> 00:48:05,239 Speaker 14: guys just stop talking about Jeffrey Epstein. 953 00:48:06,040 --> 00:48:07,000 Speaker 4: And I am telling. 954 00:48:06,760 --> 00:48:09,799 Speaker 14: You that I will be the very last person that 955 00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:13,000 Speaker 14: will stop talking about Jeffrey Epstein when it comes to children. 956 00:48:13,520 --> 00:48:15,600 Speaker 14: I'm telling you, guys, the left and the right, we 957 00:48:15,640 --> 00:48:17,920 Speaker 14: have definitely got to come together on this and not 958 00:48:18,040 --> 00:48:18,400 Speaker 14: let it go. 959 00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:20,880 Speaker 3: So there you go, the very last person will stop 960 00:48:20,920 --> 00:48:25,799 Speaker 3: talking about Jeffrey Epstein, one of Donald Trump's s Dodger supporters. 961 00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:28,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, And it's interesting she and Rogan Book come to 962 00:48:28,640 --> 00:48:30,560 Speaker 2: the same like, Oh, I guess they're just gonna, you know, 963 00:48:30,600 --> 00:48:34,120 Speaker 2: start another war or escalate some of the wards we're 964 00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:37,520 Speaker 2: already involved with to distract from this. And it's a 965 00:48:37,600 --> 00:48:41,799 Speaker 2: clever point that Candace makes there to say, there are 966 00:48:41,960 --> 00:48:44,600 Speaker 2: like that's already happening. And we covered, of course, the 967 00:48:44,680 --> 00:48:48,480 Speaker 2: Ukraine escalation yesterday and Trump's clansorship these long range weapons 968 00:48:48,480 --> 00:48:51,000 Speaker 2: and the fact that apparently he asked Lensky and it 969 00:48:51,040 --> 00:48:53,560 Speaker 2: was leaked to askes Lensky like, hey, can you hit Moscow? 970 00:48:53,600 --> 00:48:56,759 Speaker 2: Can you hate hit Saint Petersburg? So I think that's 971 00:48:56,800 --> 00:48:59,879 Speaker 2: a that's a savvy point that Candace is ultimately making there. 972 00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:02,440 Speaker 2: I can't help but notice so Emily, she's still like 973 00:49:02,560 --> 00:49:06,080 Speaker 2: he's being controlled, Like it's never him who's the actor, 974 00:49:06,520 --> 00:49:09,120 Speaker 2: it's who's controlling you. And same thing with Alex Jones, 975 00:49:09,160 --> 00:49:13,000 Speaker 2: Like Alex seems genuinely tortured. You know, we played that 976 00:49:13,120 --> 00:49:14,840 Speaker 2: video where he was crying and he said he was 977 00:49:14,880 --> 00:49:17,120 Speaker 2: gonna puke, Like I believe him. I believe that he 978 00:49:17,280 --> 00:49:20,560 Speaker 2: probably vomited and is like genuinely tortured over what the 979 00:49:20,560 --> 00:49:22,440 Speaker 2: fuck here? Because he is the conspira. He is the 980 00:49:22,480 --> 00:49:27,400 Speaker 2: og conspiracy guy, right, And so for Trump to completely 981 00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:29,880 Speaker 2: flip on Epstein and say you are a bad person 982 00:49:30,400 --> 00:49:33,600 Speaker 2: if you still are talking about this, and to put 983 00:49:33,640 --> 00:49:38,200 Speaker 2: out there this most outlandish explanation that it was Obama 984 00:49:38,239 --> 00:49:41,080 Speaker 2: who wrote the Epstein files, which just doesn't even make 985 00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:46,239 Speaker 2: any sense. Alex is trying to reckon with this in 986 00:49:46,320 --> 00:49:49,760 Speaker 2: some way that doesn't lead to the conclusion, Oh Trump 987 00:49:49,840 --> 00:49:52,799 Speaker 2: is implicated in these files. He always says the same 988 00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:54,960 Speaker 2: thing of like I did deep research, and I know 989 00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:58,000 Speaker 2: there's nothing there in terms of you and kids. But 990 00:49:58,719 --> 00:50:01,480 Speaker 2: you know, if it was any Democrat, actually, if it 991 00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:05,000 Speaker 2: was anyone other than Trump, even another Republican, he would 992 00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:08,520 Speaker 2: come to the obvious conclusion, you're trying to cover something up. 993 00:50:08,560 --> 00:50:10,879 Speaker 2: That must look really bad for you. Because and that's 994 00:50:10,920 --> 00:50:13,919 Speaker 2: why he's so tortured and wrapping himself around this thing, 995 00:50:14,320 --> 00:50:17,120 Speaker 2: because how you look at the fact pattern and not 996 00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:19,719 Speaker 2: come to the conclusion as a culture was hinting at like, oh, 997 00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:23,120 Speaker 2: maybe there is some there there, because otherwise, why are 998 00:50:23,200 --> 00:50:27,080 Speaker 2: you behaving in this completely preposterous way? And Nowlex Jones 999 00:50:27,120 --> 00:50:30,280 Speaker 2: is begging him not even to This is also interesting 1000 00:50:30,320 --> 00:50:32,080 Speaker 2: to me. He's not even begging him at this point 1001 00:50:32,280 --> 00:50:35,600 Speaker 2: release the files. He's just begging him to stop stop 1002 00:50:35,680 --> 00:50:38,640 Speaker 2: talking about it, stop doing what you're doing, Like just 1003 00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:42,719 Speaker 2: please stop, which is kind of wild. You would think that, 1004 00:50:42,920 --> 00:50:44,400 Speaker 2: you know, he would be calling for the release of 1005 00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:46,719 Speaker 2: the files, but you know, just please stop talking about this. 1006 00:50:46,840 --> 00:50:49,200 Speaker 2: You're just drawing more attention to You're just making things worse, Like, 1007 00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:51,840 Speaker 2: just stop everything that you're doing right now. And so 1008 00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:55,560 Speaker 2: it's it's pretty wild to it's pretty wild to behold. 1009 00:50:55,640 --> 00:50:58,440 Speaker 2: But there's no doubt if it was certainly any Democrat, 1010 00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:03,399 Speaker 2: he and you know, the whole cast of characters would 1011 00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:06,359 Speaker 2: immediately go, oh, they're guilty. That's why they're behaving this way. 1012 00:51:06,440 --> 00:51:07,920 Speaker 2: That is the most logical explanation. 1013 00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:09,920 Speaker 4: I mean, people are getting closer. 1014 00:51:10,160 --> 00:51:12,720 Speaker 3: People that side of it are getting closer and closer 1015 00:51:12,760 --> 00:51:15,600 Speaker 3: to thinking that. And your point about Sager saying, you know, 1016 00:51:15,600 --> 00:51:18,320 Speaker 3: I never thought there was any there there with Trump 1017 00:51:18,360 --> 00:51:21,320 Speaker 3: and Epstein. I still think it's probably likely that Trump 1018 00:51:21,520 --> 00:51:25,279 Speaker 3: is covering up for someone close to him rather than 1019 00:51:25,440 --> 00:51:27,840 Speaker 3: him himself. But the more that he talks this is 1020 00:51:27,880 --> 00:51:31,480 Speaker 3: what Alex Jones is getting at, the more absurd and 1021 00:51:31,560 --> 00:51:36,239 Speaker 3: desperate he looks, and that is suspicious. 1022 00:51:36,280 --> 00:51:37,120 Speaker 4: Of course, it's suspicial. 1023 00:51:37,160 --> 00:51:40,520 Speaker 3: I mean everything around Trump and Epstein is already suspicious enough. 1024 00:51:41,120 --> 00:51:45,800 Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean, it's just it's gonna get the 1025 00:51:46,560 --> 00:51:49,879 Speaker 3: Donald Trump that they're painting a portrait of, whether it's 1026 00:51:49,880 --> 00:51:52,839 Speaker 3: Alex Jones or Candice Owens or Joe Rogan. 1027 00:51:52,920 --> 00:51:54,520 Speaker 4: Actually, it is so. 1028 00:51:55,280 --> 00:52:00,760 Speaker 3: Incredibly dark, this idea that you would have a president 1029 00:52:00,960 --> 00:52:04,600 Speaker 3: who says he's going to drain the swamp and purge corruption, 1030 00:52:05,360 --> 00:52:11,359 Speaker 3: who is hiding covering up for political elites in the 1031 00:52:11,400 --> 00:52:17,319 Speaker 3: case of a sex predator in order to protect himself. 1032 00:52:17,440 --> 00:52:23,319 Speaker 3: And then you're deflecting by sending more weapons into a 1033 00:52:23,480 --> 00:52:26,040 Speaker 3: conflict that he also said he would get elected to end. 1034 00:52:26,080 --> 00:52:28,160 Speaker 4: I mean, that is what they are. 1035 00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:30,920 Speaker 3: The portrait that they're painting for their listeners is an 1036 00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:33,080 Speaker 3: incredibly dark and powerful Wan. 1037 00:52:34,800 --> 00:52:35,160 Speaker 4: Crystal. 1038 00:52:35,200 --> 00:52:37,040 Speaker 3: That's probably a good note on which to transition to 1039 00:52:37,040 --> 00:52:40,080 Speaker 3: the politics of all of this. We have numbers, So 1040 00:52:40,239 --> 00:52:43,760 Speaker 3: let's put a five on the screen. This is new 1041 00:52:43,920 --> 00:52:47,160 Speaker 3: polling data. Should the government release all documents related to 1042 00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:48,080 Speaker 3: the Epstein case. 1043 00:52:48,200 --> 00:52:49,800 Speaker 4: This is from you gov. Yes. 1044 00:52:50,160 --> 00:52:53,960 Speaker 3: Seventy nine percent, No, five percent. 1045 00:52:54,680 --> 00:52:55,600 Speaker 4: It's not even close. 1046 00:52:56,120 --> 00:52:59,560 Speaker 2: Those seventy nine percent all bad people, emily bad people. 1047 00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:02,960 Speaker 2: The only noble ones are the five percent to say no, 1048 00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:06,560 Speaker 2: and most of them are apparently like in Congress, Republican 1049 00:53:06,680 --> 00:53:07,520 Speaker 2: members of Congress. 1050 00:53:08,200 --> 00:53:13,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, and here's Harry Enton going through some pulling numbers 1051 00:53:13,719 --> 00:53:15,480 Speaker 3: on CNN A six. 1052 00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:18,680 Speaker 13: Take a look here Epstein case. Amount of info release 1053 00:53:18,960 --> 00:53:23,279 Speaker 13: the winner here, fifty percent dissatisfied doesn't matter, twenty nine 1054 00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:25,640 Speaker 13: percent not hurd enough, seventeen second but look at the 1055 00:53:25,680 --> 00:53:29,319 Speaker 13: bottom of your screen. The percentage that are satisfied is 1056 00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:32,279 Speaker 13: just three percent. That's one, that's two, That is just 1057 00:53:32,520 --> 00:53:34,800 Speaker 13: three percent. I feel like the count on Sesame Street. 1058 00:53:35,040 --> 00:53:37,880 Speaker 13: Just three percent of Americans are satisfied so far with 1059 00:53:37,920 --> 00:53:40,360 Speaker 13: the amount of information release. The clear winner in this 1060 00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:45,360 Speaker 13: particular case is fifty percent. Half of the public is dissatisfied, 1061 00:53:45,400 --> 00:53:48,640 Speaker 13: at least so far. You see this, fifty percent dissatisfied. 1062 00:53:48,840 --> 00:53:51,760 Speaker 13: And let's break it down by party, Okay, Epstein case 1063 00:53:51,800 --> 00:53:52,920 Speaker 13: amount of info release. 1064 00:53:53,080 --> 00:53:53,480 Speaker 4: Look at this. 1065 00:53:53,560 --> 00:53:56,920 Speaker 13: You get forty three percent of lean GOP. That's Republicans 1066 00:53:56,920 --> 00:53:59,800 Speaker 13: and independents who lean towards the Republican Party who are dissatisfied. 1067 00:53:59,800 --> 00:54:04,319 Speaker 13: Look this, just four percent satisfied. My goodness, gracious, when 1068 00:54:04,320 --> 00:54:07,040 Speaker 13: you only a four percent that is with Donald Trump 1069 00:54:07,120 --> 00:54:09,640 Speaker 13: on a particular issue, that is ridiculously low. I've never 1070 00:54:09,640 --> 00:54:12,600 Speaker 13: seen anything quite like it. How about lean Democrat sixty 1071 00:54:12,640 --> 00:54:17,440 Speaker 13: percent dissatisfied. Compare that to three percent who are satisfied 1072 00:54:17,480 --> 00:54:21,080 Speaker 13: again four percent, three percent Republican Democrat. You rarely ever 1073 00:54:21,120 --> 00:54:23,640 Speaker 13: see this type of agreement whites with a college degree, 1074 00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:26,319 Speaker 13: whites without a college degree. But in this particular case, 1075 00:54:26,480 --> 00:54:28,800 Speaker 13: we see agreement. What are we talking about this Epstein 1076 00:54:28,840 --> 00:54:32,120 Speaker 13: case amount of info release dissatisfied. Fifty five percent of 1077 00:54:32,160 --> 00:54:35,200 Speaker 13: white college graduates and fifty three of white non college 1078 00:54:35,239 --> 00:54:39,000 Speaker 13: graduates Donald Trump's historic base, yet the majority are dissatisfied. 1079 00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:44,080 Speaker 2: Look at Donald Trump uniting the country, healing the grand 1080 00:54:44,239 --> 00:54:45,960 Speaker 2: education divide. Look at that, Emily. 1081 00:54:47,040 --> 00:54:48,080 Speaker 4: One of the numbers of it. 1082 00:54:48,600 --> 00:54:50,840 Speaker 3: Enton didn't mention specifically, but was on the screen you 1083 00:54:50,840 --> 00:54:51,320 Speaker 3: could see. 1084 00:54:51,360 --> 00:54:52,680 Speaker 4: Was most interesting to me. 1085 00:54:53,320 --> 00:54:56,520 Speaker 3: Twenty nine percent of people saying that it doesn't matter. 1086 00:54:56,719 --> 00:54:56,919 Speaker 4: Right. 1087 00:54:57,000 --> 00:55:00,840 Speaker 3: So if that number were higher than Trump would be 1088 00:55:00,880 --> 00:55:03,120 Speaker 3: able to get away with this right like Trump could. 1089 00:55:03,400 --> 00:55:05,800 Speaker 3: There are all kinds of things that don't matter to voters. 1090 00:55:05,920 --> 00:55:08,200 Speaker 3: They might disagree with the president on, but it doesn't 1091 00:55:08,320 --> 00:55:11,040 Speaker 3: really matter. You know, we're not talking right now about 1092 00:55:11,280 --> 00:55:14,120 Speaker 3: Donald Trump's position on abortion at all. It's not like 1093 00:55:14,200 --> 00:55:17,360 Speaker 3: the high priority for many voters at this given moment. 1094 00:55:17,440 --> 00:55:20,319 Speaker 4: Or let's say Donald Trump disagrees on like the Jones Act. 1095 00:55:21,120 --> 00:55:23,440 Speaker 3: You can show all of these scary poll numbers about 1096 00:55:23,440 --> 00:55:26,200 Speaker 3: how voters are in total disagreement with Donald Trump on 1097 00:55:26,239 --> 00:55:26,960 Speaker 3: the Jones Act. 1098 00:55:27,160 --> 00:55:28,600 Speaker 4: Nobody cares about the Jones Act. 1099 00:55:29,000 --> 00:55:31,759 Speaker 2: So when you aukus, are you an August voter. 1100 00:55:32,440 --> 00:55:35,520 Speaker 3: Yes, yes, you know, Siier probably cares a lot about 1101 00:55:35,520 --> 00:55:38,600 Speaker 3: the Jones Act. But twenty nine percent of people saying 1102 00:55:38,680 --> 00:55:42,719 Speaker 3: doesn't matter. Wow, Like that's that number is is a 1103 00:55:42,719 --> 00:55:45,440 Speaker 3: bit low for the comfort of the Republican Party. 1104 00:55:46,120 --> 00:55:49,320 Speaker 2: I'm actually curious for some more polling about how closely 1105 00:55:49,600 --> 00:55:55,240 Speaker 2: people have been and are following the Epstein case, because 1106 00:55:55,520 --> 00:55:58,040 Speaker 2: in some ways it does feel like kind of an 1107 00:55:58,040 --> 00:56:01,880 Speaker 2: Internet phenomenon, and certain it has been podcasters who have 1108 00:56:01,960 --> 00:56:04,520 Speaker 2: most focused on it and delved into it and explored 1109 00:56:04,560 --> 00:56:09,480 Speaker 2: the various avenues you know, mainstream media. Basically, once he 1110 00:56:09,520 --> 00:56:11,680 Speaker 2: was dead, just sort of dropped it like a hot 1111 00:56:11,680 --> 00:56:14,600 Speaker 2: potato and there wasn't a lot of additional reporting, et cetera. 1112 00:56:14,760 --> 00:56:17,200 Speaker 2: Some may say that was the point in any case, 1113 00:56:17,880 --> 00:56:21,120 Speaker 2: It has been largely a sort of podcast phenomenon, but 1114 00:56:21,840 --> 00:56:24,560 Speaker 2: because it touches on some of these core themes of 1115 00:56:24,680 --> 00:56:26,759 Speaker 2: just like do you trust this guy? You know, did 1116 00:56:26,760 --> 00:56:28,799 Speaker 2: he Is he a con man? Which of course I 1117 00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:30,719 Speaker 2: think he is. I've always thought that he was, but 1118 00:56:31,040 --> 00:56:33,120 Speaker 2: you know, he presented himself as a soundsider. Is he 1119 00:56:33,239 --> 00:56:36,080 Speaker 2: really that? Or was this all just you know, a 1120 00:56:36,239 --> 00:56:40,319 Speaker 2: giant con of the American people? And most directly of 1121 00:56:40,440 --> 00:56:45,080 Speaker 2: his own supporters. So because and also look, it's you know, 1122 00:56:45,160 --> 00:56:49,200 Speaker 2: it's sort in tawdry, and those things also grab people's attention. 1123 00:56:50,560 --> 00:56:54,200 Speaker 2: So I have a feeling that there is a lot 1124 00:56:54,239 --> 00:56:57,600 Speaker 2: of significant, normy public interest in this, and I but 1125 00:56:57,760 --> 00:56:59,680 Speaker 2: I you know, I don't have a strong feeling about 1126 00:56:59,719 --> 00:57:03,480 Speaker 2: i'mus to see more numbers as to just how closely 1127 00:57:03,520 --> 00:57:05,640 Speaker 2: people are following this, just what they make of it, 1128 00:57:05,800 --> 00:57:08,399 Speaker 2: just how important they think it is, and we'll see 1129 00:57:08,400 --> 00:57:11,640 Speaker 2: over time how it impacts his approval rating. You know, 1130 00:57:11,800 --> 00:57:14,040 Speaker 2: Like I said before, I don't think that this causes 1131 00:57:14,840 --> 00:57:18,640 Speaker 2: MAGA to the mega base, right, I think they'll still 1132 00:57:18,640 --> 00:57:22,520 Speaker 2: be there. I think, you know, Dinash Desuza and others 1133 00:57:22,560 --> 00:57:24,880 Speaker 2: who have this like, oh, but let's focus on the 1134 00:57:24,880 --> 00:57:27,400 Speaker 2: great work he's doing, like you know, imprisoning people in 1135 00:57:27,480 --> 00:57:32,440 Speaker 2: Alligator Alcatraz or whatever. I think that will probably be 1136 00:57:32,520 --> 00:57:36,440 Speaker 2: successful with most of his base, because it's certainly not 1137 00:57:36,520 --> 00:57:39,720 Speaker 2: the first time he's been caught any blatant hypocrisy. It's 1138 00:57:39,720 --> 00:57:41,640 Speaker 2: not even the first time, like this month, that he's 1139 00:57:41,680 --> 00:57:45,880 Speaker 2: been caught in a blatant hypocrisy. But for independence, you know, 1140 00:57:45,960 --> 00:57:50,800 Speaker 2: I think he'll probably start rapidly receding towards his floor, 1141 00:57:50,880 --> 00:57:52,880 Speaker 2: like the type of numbers that we saw, you know, 1142 00:57:53,320 --> 00:57:55,440 Speaker 2: after January sixth, for example. I don't know it will 1143 00:57:55,440 --> 00:57:57,960 Speaker 2: get quite that low, but I think we'll start heading 1144 00:57:58,000 --> 00:58:01,000 Speaker 2: more in that direction. I know that I saw already 1145 00:58:01,280 --> 00:58:04,520 Speaker 2: pull numbers of his approval ratings declining significantly on this 1146 00:58:04,600 --> 00:58:07,280 Speaker 2: because it just does really cut against the identity that 1147 00:58:07,320 --> 00:58:09,360 Speaker 2: he's tried to forge for himself in politics. 1148 00:58:09,640 --> 00:58:13,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, there's one final thought I have. Some smart analysts 1149 00:58:13,240 --> 00:58:17,560 Speaker 3: of the Biden presidency were looking at his favorability in 1150 00:58:17,600 --> 00:58:21,840 Speaker 3: his numbers, and after the botched Afghanistan withdrawal, which by 1151 00:58:21,840 --> 00:58:24,160 Speaker 3: the way, in principle most Americans agreed with getting out 1152 00:58:24,160 --> 00:58:28,640 Speaker 3: of Afghanistan, Biden's poll numbers never really recovered from that moment. 1153 00:58:28,680 --> 00:58:31,000 Speaker 3: That's sort of like when things in terms of the 1154 00:58:31,000 --> 00:58:34,120 Speaker 3: politics started to go downhill for Joe Biden. And you 1155 00:58:34,160 --> 00:58:38,120 Speaker 3: could potentially make the case that this is possibly a 1156 00:58:38,160 --> 00:58:40,720 Speaker 3: parallel moment for Donald Trump. It's one of those things 1157 00:58:40,720 --> 00:58:45,520 Speaker 3: where you just lose trust, and once you lose trust, 1158 00:58:45,640 --> 00:58:47,960 Speaker 3: and you look, I mean, we were talking about the 1159 00:58:48,000 --> 00:58:50,520 Speaker 3: humiliation rituals that Donald Trump likes to put his deputies 1160 00:58:50,520 --> 00:58:53,920 Speaker 3: through but it's humiliating for Donald Trump to and he 1161 00:58:53,960 --> 00:58:56,640 Speaker 3: doesn't see it this way, of course, but to talk 1162 00:58:56,800 --> 00:59:00,720 Speaker 3: such a tough game about the deep state and transparency 1163 00:59:00,720 --> 00:59:03,000 Speaker 3: in draining the swamp, and then to be a guy 1164 00:59:03,040 --> 00:59:04,920 Speaker 3: who comes out there and can't get tough on the 1165 00:59:04,960 --> 00:59:09,479 Speaker 3: Epstein case, the case that most people want, the case 1166 00:59:09,480 --> 00:59:13,920 Speaker 3: that's most important to people who want toughness from a 1167 00:59:14,640 --> 00:59:17,480 Speaker 3: outsider president or outsider president who pledged to take on 1168 00:59:17,720 --> 00:59:21,200 Speaker 3: the swamp. So that I actually think that is sort 1169 00:59:21,240 --> 00:59:25,720 Speaker 3: of a humiliating moment for Trump, and I do wonder 1170 00:59:25,800 --> 00:59:29,840 Speaker 3: if it causes trust with you know, five percent, even 1171 00:59:30,320 --> 00:59:32,720 Speaker 3: of people who generally give him the benefit of the doubt. 1172 00:59:33,360 --> 00:59:36,680 Speaker 3: It's one of those things where it's a proxy issue. 1173 00:59:36,720 --> 00:59:41,120 Speaker 4: It just I sensed actually, the Republican Study. 1174 00:59:41,120 --> 00:59:45,640 Speaker 3: Committee did a new media row yesterday and I was talking, 1175 00:59:45,680 --> 00:59:47,160 Speaker 3: So I was talking to a bunch of members, and 1176 00:59:47,680 --> 00:59:50,520 Speaker 3: I got the sense from them that they know their 1177 00:59:50,560 --> 00:59:54,240 Speaker 3: districts care about this, and they know people are going 1178 00:59:54,280 --> 00:59:55,840 Speaker 3: to ask them about this, they know they're going to 1179 00:59:55,880 --> 00:59:59,040 Speaker 3: actual answer questions about it, and so Trump is not 1180 00:59:59,360 --> 01:00:02,240 Speaker 3: really going be able to hand wave it away, not 1181 01:00:02,400 --> 01:00:04,840 Speaker 3: just because of how Alex Jens and Candazans are reacting, 1182 01:00:04,880 --> 01:00:07,360 Speaker 3: but also because it's going to stick. 1183 01:00:07,160 --> 01:00:09,040 Speaker 4: In the minds of regular people. 1184 01:00:09,800 --> 01:00:13,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know, Trump is a political taflon and 1185 01:00:13,480 --> 01:00:15,840 Speaker 2: is able to write out a bunch of crises and 1186 01:00:15,880 --> 01:00:18,400 Speaker 2: already has written out a bunch of CRISI but there's 1187 01:00:18,440 --> 01:00:22,240 Speaker 2: been massive blowback against the Republican Party in midterm elections, 1188 01:00:22,240 --> 01:00:27,040 Speaker 2: in particular as a consequence of things that he has 1189 01:00:27,120 --> 01:00:30,040 Speaker 2: done that has sung the party's chances. So when you 1190 01:00:30,040 --> 01:00:33,200 Speaker 2: think about the midterm elections, which is still a ways 1191 01:00:33,240 --> 01:00:34,919 Speaker 2: down the road, we're going to have eighty five more 1192 01:00:35,000 --> 01:00:38,280 Speaker 2: like scandals and outrageous things happen, wars and whatever the 1193 01:00:38,320 --> 01:00:39,800 Speaker 2: hell we're going to see over the next year and 1194 01:00:39,840 --> 01:00:43,240 Speaker 2: a half. But between now and then. But this is 1195 01:00:43,240 --> 01:00:46,120 Speaker 2: the sort of thing that contributes to apathy amongst your base, 1196 01:00:46,240 --> 01:00:48,400 Speaker 2: where I may you know, they may still say, yes, 1197 01:00:48,440 --> 01:00:50,080 Speaker 2: I approve of what he's doing, and I'm glad he's 1198 01:00:50,080 --> 01:00:51,960 Speaker 2: in there, and I trust my guy. Am I going 1199 01:00:52,040 --> 01:00:53,960 Speaker 2: to go out and vote for this Republican member of 1200 01:00:53,960 --> 01:00:56,880 Speaker 2: Congress who voted against the release of the Epstein files. 1201 01:00:57,360 --> 01:00:59,600 Speaker 2: Maybe not, Maybe I'll just maybe have got other things 1202 01:00:59,680 --> 01:01:01,959 Speaker 2: going on on that day. It only takes a couple 1203 01:01:02,080 --> 01:01:05,320 Speaker 2: points of depressed turnout on the Republican side to really 1204 01:01:05,360 --> 01:01:07,880 Speaker 2: remake the landscape in terms of, you know what those 1205 01:01:07,920 --> 01:01:09,480 Speaker 2: midterm elections ultimately look like. 1206 01:01:09,880 --> 01:01:12,440 Speaker 3: And you know, nobody really agrees that Jeffrey Epstein like 1207 01:01:12,480 --> 01:01:13,480 Speaker 3: that there's no there there. 1208 01:01:13,520 --> 01:01:15,360 Speaker 4: I mean, everyone pretty much is like, right, yeah, this 1209 01:01:15,440 --> 01:01:16,640 Speaker 4: is this is suspicious. 1210 01:01:16,720 --> 01:01:18,880 Speaker 3: So it's not like there are people in Trump's camp 1211 01:01:18,920 --> 01:01:21,240 Speaker 3: who are like, you know, I bet, I bet it's 1212 01:01:21,240 --> 01:01:23,240 Speaker 3: all on the up and up, and you know, like. 1213 01:01:23,200 --> 01:01:25,480 Speaker 4: That just doesn't even know that doesn't make sense. 1214 01:01:25,480 --> 01:01:27,560 Speaker 3: And now Trump has introduced this other scandal like that 1215 01:01:27,600 --> 01:01:30,040 Speaker 3: he was framed by the Biden administration, you know, James 1216 01:01:30,040 --> 01:01:32,840 Speaker 3: Comey to be implicated in Epstein, which is this is 1217 01:01:32,920 --> 01:01:34,120 Speaker 3: significant allegation. 1218 01:01:34,520 --> 01:01:35,919 Speaker 4: So he's yeah open. 1219 01:01:36,000 --> 01:01:39,560 Speaker 3: That's why Alex Jones is like, dude, stop because now 1220 01:01:39,600 --> 01:01:44,240 Speaker 3: there's this basically fabricated out of thin air new theory, uh, 1221 01:01:44,360 --> 01:01:46,680 Speaker 3: that Trump is using to kind of muddy the waters. 1222 01:01:46,920 --> 01:01:47,040 Speaker 5: Uh. 1223 01:01:47,120 --> 01:01:49,320 Speaker 3: And maybe there's something too, I mean, maybe they did 1224 01:01:49,680 --> 01:01:52,960 Speaker 3: if you were a partisan operation and you knew that 1225 01:01:53,040 --> 01:01:56,480 Speaker 3: there was stuff on the other guy to prevent it 1226 01:01:56,480 --> 01:01:59,720 Speaker 3: from being released. If Democrats are implicated, you might point 1227 01:01:59,760 --> 01:02:01,800 Speaker 3: the face at him and leave the files in such 1228 01:02:01,800 --> 01:02:04,200 Speaker 3: a way that points right like there could be truth 1229 01:02:04,280 --> 01:02:05,919 Speaker 3: to it, But the idea that they are the only 1230 01:02:05,960 --> 01:02:09,120 Speaker 3: ones who cooked up the Epstein theory is obviously. 1231 01:02:08,640 --> 01:02:12,320 Speaker 2: Not true well, and also it's not what the administration 1232 01:02:12,440 --> 01:02:14,200 Speaker 2: was saying five seconds ago when they were like, there 1233 01:02:14,240 --> 01:02:16,720 Speaker 2: are no files and there is no client list, and 1234 01:02:16,800 --> 01:02:18,480 Speaker 2: the case is closed and we need to move on. 1235 01:02:19,280 --> 01:02:22,600 Speaker 2: If you uncovered this giant conspiracy where Democrats wrote you 1236 01:02:22,640 --> 01:02:25,040 Speaker 2: into the Ebstein files and deleted themselves or whatever the 1237 01:02:25,080 --> 01:02:28,400 Speaker 2: fuck he's arguing, even then, why don't you reveal that 1238 01:02:28,640 --> 01:02:31,200 Speaker 2: instead of saying there's nothing to see here and everyone 1239 01:02:31,280 --> 01:02:33,600 Speaker 2: should move on, and you're a bad person if you don't. 1240 01:02:33,800 --> 01:02:37,200 Speaker 2: So there's that glaring problem with that theory as well. 1241 01:02:37,600 --> 01:02:39,920 Speaker 2: And the last thing I'll say about this, Emily is 1242 01:02:40,640 --> 01:02:42,919 Speaker 2: the people who are backing him up the hardest are 1243 01:02:43,000 --> 01:02:46,720 Speaker 2: like the Ben Shapiro's, are the pro Israel neocon types. 1244 01:02:47,240 --> 01:02:50,880 Speaker 2: And that concerns me because not only because of potential 1245 01:02:50,920 --> 01:02:54,160 Speaker 2: implications there, but it concerns me because of who may 1246 01:02:54,240 --> 01:02:57,840 Speaker 2: gain influence through this. And we all know the people 1247 01:02:57,840 --> 01:03:00,480 Speaker 2: who come through as like the most loyal servants of 1248 01:03:00,520 --> 01:03:03,000 Speaker 2: Donald Trump are more likely to get access and favor 1249 01:03:03,080 --> 01:03:06,160 Speaker 2: and have their viewpoints listened to. And so the fact 1250 01:03:06,200 --> 01:03:09,440 Speaker 2: that it's the you know, the pro Israel, pro war 1251 01:03:09,880 --> 01:03:12,960 Speaker 2: faction that may be gaining more power and credibility and 1252 01:03:13,040 --> 01:03:16,400 Speaker 2: access through all of this is also really concerning to 1253 01:03:16,440 --> 01:03:16,520 Speaker 2: me
