I love the intro because we just heard from 38 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:17,640 Speaker 6: RFK Junior sand and the DNC basically is fabricated like 39 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:21,639 Speaker 6: a magic show, the enthusiasm around the Kamala Harris candidacy. 40 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,640 Speaker 6: And you also heard Bernie Sanders say, don't ask me 41 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 6: about what her polhecies are. Ask her. And that's why 42 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:29,360 Speaker 6: today is such a big day and why it's so 43 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 6: fun to be filling in for Sean on this day 44 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 6: because it's almost like Christmas morning because tonight, for the 45 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 6: first time in a long time, for the first time 46 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 6: actually in sixty three days. Peter Schweitzer, We're going to 47 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 6: hear from Kamala Harris. You know, there's that phrase in 48 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 6: the land of the blind, the one eyed man is 49 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 6: king in the land of political kind of, we're all 50 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:54,240 Speaker 6: in the bag for Kamala Harris. Softball pre recorded questions 51 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 6: from CNN's Dana Bash passes for real journalism. 52 00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, here's the headline. By the way, on CNN, Harris 53 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:03,640 Speaker 1: is in an interview. Is the latest highly anticipated moment 54 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 1: in a wild presidential race. In other words, this is 55 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 1: kind of like a presidential summit. This is like staring 56 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 1: down Putin, This is like meeting g. The hype behind 57 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:16,080 Speaker 1: this is ridiculous. She's sitting down with Dana Bash. She's 58 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 1: gonna be asked softball questions, right, we could assume that. 59 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 1: And she actually brought her wingman Tim Walls along. I mean, 60 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 1: he's kind of the chaperone to this event. And yet 61 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 1: they're treating it like this is some massive interview that's 62 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 1: going to be a real test of her ability to 63 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:31,919 Speaker 1: be president. 64 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 6: Yea, rather than a summit with g I'd actually more 65 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 6: accurately compared to like, let's imagine you left town and 66 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 6: you didn't feed your cat, and you've come back after 67 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 6: like four days, and that cat is starving and it's thirsty, 68 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 6: and they're so excited. That's essentially what Kamala Harris and 69 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 6: her handlers have done. They starved the media beast. So 70 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 6: now people will lap up anything they have to offer them. 71 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 6: And it's been reported that whatever the conditions are of 72 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 6: this interview with CNN's Dana Bash and we've got stuff 73 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 6: to suggest that she may be something less than a 74 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 6: neutral arbiter of truth in this interview. Whatever the conditions were, 75 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,840 Speaker 6: they weren't CNN's. They were the campaigns, correct. 76 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 1: I'm sure what the campaign did is they went around 77 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 1: to all the media outlets, the friendly media outlets, and said, look, 78 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 1: here are our terms. We're gonna give it to you. 79 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 1: If you don't agree to them, we'll just go to 80 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,599 Speaker 1: someone else. So we know that Tim Wats is included, 81 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 1: it's not one on one. We know that it's pre taped, 82 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 1: so it means if there's a flub, the campaign can 83 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 1: can press CNN to edit it out or allow there 84 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: to be some kind of a modification. And again, this 85 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:34,440 Speaker 1: is stuff that is really junior league I mean, if 86 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 1: you're gonna be president of the United States. She's been 87 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,600 Speaker 1: vice president of the United States, she's presumably been overseas 88 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 1: and met with foreign leaders. But this fear and this 89 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 1: anxiety and this anticipation for it's a friendly interview. It's 90 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 1: like it's like Donald Trump going on Fox. I mean, 91 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,359 Speaker 1: you know, he's gonna ask questions, but it's not going 92 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 1: to be hostile. And you know it should be something 93 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:57,159 Speaker 1: she should be doing regularly, but she's not. 94 00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 6: You know, it almost sounds like it almost sounds like 95 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 6: you're suggesting that we consider the context of this interview. 96 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,279 Speaker 6: Listen to one of my favorite philosophers and thought leaders 97 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:08,599 Speaker 6: encourage us to consider the context of all things. 98 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 5: My mother used to She would give us a hard 99 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 5: time sometimes and she would say to us, I don't 100 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 5: know what's wrong with you, young people. Do you think 101 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:21,039 Speaker 5: you just fell out of a coconut tree? You exist 102 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:25,720 Speaker 5: in the context of all in which you live and 103 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 5: what came before you. 104 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,159 Speaker 6: The audio doesn't do it justice because when you watch 105 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 6: her say that, she does this pause with her face 106 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 6: as if like I am crushing it right now, and 107 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:38,600 Speaker 6: you guys should be just you are welcome for this 108 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 6: so we do we should consider the context in which 109 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:43,799 Speaker 6: this interview is occurring. The context is this The last 110 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 6: time we heard from Kamala Harris was sixty three days 111 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 6: ago on the heels of the presidential debate, when she 112 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:50,919 Speaker 6: said this. 113 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:53,279 Speaker 5: Yes, there was a slow start, but it was a 114 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 5: strong finish. And what became very clear through the course 115 00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,599 Speaker 5: of the night is that Joe Biden is fighting on 116 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:04,840 Speaker 5: behalf of the American people, on substance, on policy, on performance, 117 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,160 Speaker 5: Joe Biden is extraordinarily strong. 118 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's pretty amazing, right, That's what That was her 119 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,280 Speaker 1: assessment of what Joe Biden did. And of course that's 120 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:18,240 Speaker 1: what led that same performance that she was praising and 121 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 1: saying is so great is what led Joe Biden ultimately 122 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 1: to drop out of the race. 123 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 6: So maybe not the strong finish she suggested that it 124 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:28,480 Speaker 6: had been in fact fact check. Now, what we do 125 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 6: at the Government Accountabili Institut, of which Peter Schweizer is 126 00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 6: the president, what we do on our Drill Down podcast, 127 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 6: and what Peter has done successfully in is many number 128 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 6: one New York Times best selling books is exposed truth 129 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:41,039 Speaker 6: and expose the things that the government tries to lie 130 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 6: to us. About what we just heard Kamala Harris do 131 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:46,120 Speaker 6: was lie to us about Joe Biden's fitness for office. 132 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 6: That lies since been exposed, but we're now being sold 133 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 6: another lie, Peter Schweiz, And that's kind of one of 134 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 6: the things we're going to talk to you about today. 135 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:55,200 Speaker 6: We have a lot of really other cool stuff to 136 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 6: talk about. We're going to hear from John Voyd about 137 00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 6: the film Reagan. We're going to hear from Susan Crabtree 138 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:02,160 Speaker 6: Real Politics about another lie the government's telling us as 139 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:04,599 Speaker 6: it relates to Secret Service. And we'll hear from people 140 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 6: that lived through Tim Wats's Tierney in Minnesota. But the 141 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 6: lie we're currently being sold is that Kamala Harris is 142 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 6: not just competent as a presidential candidate, but maybe the 143 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 6: most accomplished and most experienced and most ready to be president. 144 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what we're being told. And I got to 145 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,559 Speaker 1: tell you I might do something that I've never done before, 146 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 1: which is called a personal injury attorney, because I have whiplash. 147 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:31,240 Speaker 1: When you look at what the media has done, what 148 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 1: they were saying just a couple of months ago to 149 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:37,320 Speaker 1: what they're doing now, it's really remarkable and I tell 150 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 1: you there's I would encourage people to go and check 151 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 1: out this book called The Truce that was published in 152 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 1: January of this year by two left wing journalists.

They interviewed hundreds of people and 164 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 1: they say that they are all remarkably consistent about her mismanagement, 165 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 1: the toxic culture. The quote one aid of saying she's 166 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:37,680 Speaker 1: not ready for time, prime time, she ain't made for this, 167 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 1: and the quotes go on and on and on, and 168 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 1: yet now what we're told is this is the person 169 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 1: that's going to give us a new amazing administration. That 170 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:51,679 Speaker 1: she's energetic, she's you know, full of new ideas, she's creative. 171 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 1: In other words, the same consensus that existed in the 172 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:58,960 Speaker 1: national media before this was that she is not ready 173 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: for prime time, and in fact, the book even SAIDs 174 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:04,440 Speaker 1: the consensus am on White House AIDS was that Joe 175 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,320 Speaker 1: Biden was going to have to run for reelection because 176 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 1: she was not ready for it. 177 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 6: Which, by the way, is a very important point because 178 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:13,199 Speaker 6: you can wonder how did we get to the point 179 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:16,440 Speaker 6: where the debate in late June happened where Joe Biden, 180 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 6: someone who universally had a seat, it seems, was recognized 181 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 6: to not be up for the gig, not be up 182 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 6: for the task. I mean, the debate was held after 183 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 6: four pm is bedtime, by the way, So how dare 184 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 6: they do that? In some states that's elder abuse. But 185 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 6: how is it possible that they were trying to prop 186 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 6: up a guy that they were so quickly ready to 187 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 6: discard if not for what you just said, which is 188 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 6: that the replacement was even worse, which, by the way, 189 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:41,560 Speaker 6: is what we were told after the fact, Right there 190 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 6: was those three weeks that Joe Biden hung on for 191 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 6: dear life. Was we were told that Kamala Harris is 192 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:50,480 Speaker 6: actually even less popular than he is. Yeah, that's right. 193 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,080 Speaker 1: And you know, as we've talked about before when we 194 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 1: guest hosted for Sean before, the real driving force behind 195 00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 1: Joe Biden leaving office was Barack Obama, and I think 196 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:03,320 Speaker 1: that is what pushed him out of office. Barack Obama's 197 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 1: close to Kamala Harris, and I think what they have 198 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:08,760 Speaker 1: decided because they know of the weaknesses. They talk about 199 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:12,800 Speaker 1: her weaknesses in this book. The solution is to simply 200 00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 1: adopt the basement strategy of twenty twenty. She's not going 201 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 1: to do interviews. And by the way, I'm old enough 202 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:21,360 Speaker 1: to remember when Ron Reagan was president and he was 203 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: walking in the White House lawn, Sam Donaldson will be 204 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 1: screaming at him. I remember when the CNN correspondent would 205 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 1: be screaming at Trump to take questions, to take his question. 206 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 1: We don't get any of that with Kamala Harris. Nobody 207 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,080 Speaker 1: is screaming and trying to beat down the doors and 208 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:39,120 Speaker 1: say why are you not prepared to even sit down 209 00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 1: and talk to somebody in the mainstream media about what 210 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: your views are. 211 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 6: So Kamala Harris has received some criticism for the fact 212 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 6: that she's doing this interview not alone. She's not just 213 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:50,679 Speaker 6: doing an interview as for the first time as the 214 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 6: Democratic nominee for president. She's bringing her running mate, Governor 215 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 6: Tim Waltz with her. You think that's significant. 216 00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 1: I think it is significant. I mean, look, the official 217 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 1: line that they're giving, well after a convention, that's what 218 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 1: always happens, that both of them sit down together, but 219 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 1: that's when the interview takes place, like right at the 220 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:10,199 Speaker 1: convention or after the convention, it's been a couple of weeks. 221 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 6: Or maybe even before the convention, after the person's been 222 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:14,160 Speaker 6: named as the run exactly exactly. 223 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 1: I mean this to me, clearly, he is the chaperone. 224 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 1: He's the one that if we get one of her 225 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 1: word salads, if she kind of goes off and talks 226 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:25,240 Speaker 1: about coconut trees again, he's somebody that can kind of 227 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 1: bring it back in kind of a strange way. I mean, 228 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 1: this guy is not what you would call sort of 229 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 1: a calming, settling influence. But that's clear to me that 230 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,200 Speaker 1: that's the reason that he's going to be doing this interview. 231 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,320 Speaker 1: And then the question is going to become after this 232 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 1: because I imagine the interview is going to go pretty well. 233 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 1: Dana Bash is going to ask, you know, easy questions. 234 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:47,560 Speaker 1: Let's remember that her former husband was one of the 235 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 1: fifty one intelligence people that signed that document, you know, 236 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 1: helping the Biden campaign saying that the Hunter Biden laptop 237 00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 1: was Russian disinformation. You know, So it's going to be 238 00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:00,160 Speaker 1: a pretty easy interview. Then the question becomes one she 239 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,720 Speaker 1: actually gonna do one on her own with somebody that's 240 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 1: even slightly possibly going to ask her aggressive questions. 241 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 6: No, it's a great question. I'd like to compare what's 242 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,320 Speaker 6: happening now to if you ever bought a house, And 243 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 6: the way we buy houses in this country is super 244 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 6: weird because you look online, you get excited about what 245 00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 6: you see, and then you like go and tour the house, 246 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 6: and then you agree to buy the house, and then 247 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 6: you do the inspection and then you find out what's wrong, 248 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 6: and then you question all your life choices and try 249 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:28,319 Speaker 6: to renegotiate the price. So we've been sold in Chicago, 250 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 6: and for the last forty plus days we see the 251 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:34,640 Speaker 6: gloss these Zillow pictures of the Kamala Harris house online, 252 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:37,200 Speaker 6: and tonight for the first time we get maybe a 253 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 6: sneak peek at the inspection report, we find out, you know, 254 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,440 Speaker 6: are there cobwebs in the attic? Are there migrants hiding 255 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 6: in the basement? Are there structural problems? As lots of 256 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:49,120 Speaker 6: the reporting before this time has suggested that there are. 257 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 6: So we hope that there's at least something resembling a 258 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:54,600 Speaker 6: decent inspection of the presidential campaign. But we don't think 259 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 6: that that's going to happen. 260 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 1: No, I don't think that's going to happen because, look, 261 00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 1: I mean CNN in addition to having the bias that 262 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:01,800 Speaker 1: they have, and you know, look, we used to work 263 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:05,720 Speaker 1: with CNN all the time, not anymore, but they have 264 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:07,840 Speaker 1: their biases. But on top of that, this is the 265 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:11,559 Speaker 1: way that the media game is played by the Democrats. 266 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:15,679 Speaker 1: If they press her with aggressive questions, guess what, CNN's 267 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 1: not going to get any more interviews, They're not going 268 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 1: to get any access. They played this game very well. 269 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 1: And this is where you have to give Donald Trump 270 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 1: a lot of credit. Trump goes on CNN, He's agreed 271 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 1: to do a debate on ABC News, knowing sort of 272 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 1: the hostility of some of the journalists there, so he's 273 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 1: willing to go off and have tough questions hurled at him. 274 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 1: She's not demonstrating the ability to even sit down with 275 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:42,560 Speaker 1: friendly journalists, not you know, to mention hostile ones. And 276 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:44,720 Speaker 1: of course the question is if if you can't stand 277 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,840 Speaker 1: up to a hostile media question, how are you going 278 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 1: to stand up to g how are you going to 279 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 1: stand up to putin No. 280 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 6: It's a great question. It's one that won't be asked 281 00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 6: by CNN Data Bash tonight. But that's okay, that's what 282 00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:57,559 Speaker 6: we're here for. We're taking your calls at Winnie hundred 283 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 6: nine four one Sean went hundred nine four one one 284 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 6: seven three to two six. When we come back, Peter 285 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:04,599 Speaker 6: Schweitzer and me Eric Eggers, we'll tell you some of 286 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:06,880 Speaker 6: the things you won't hear tonight on CNA. We'll tell 287 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:09,559 Speaker 6: you some of the problems that have already been exposed 288 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:12,360 Speaker 6: in the foundation of this Kamala Harris campaign. We've got 289 00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 6: a bit of a lying problem in both Kamala Harris 290 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 6: and Tim Moff. We'll tell you about that next and 291 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 6: the other side of this break on the Sean Handy Show. 292 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:19,280 Speaker 6: Thanks for being with us. 293 00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 1: It's Peter Schweitzer and Eric Eggers. We are filling in 294 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 1: for Sean Handerdy joined the conversation one eight hundred nine 295 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 1: to four to one Sean one eight hundred and nine 296 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 1: four one seven, three, two six. We are talking about 297 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris, the anticipation that she's actually gonna face down 298 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:37,960 Speaker 1: Dana Bash with Tom tim Waltz. There of course, Uh, 299 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 1: the interview coming out tonight, everybody's a buzz. But you 300 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 1: were talking earlier before the break about the fact that 301 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:46,600 Speaker 1: there is a history here with both Walls and Kamala Harris, 302 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 1: with frankly lying about their past in small things but 303 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 1: also in some big things as well. 304 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 6: Yeah, it seems kind of inconsequential, but when you consider 305 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 6: the larger context, if you like, whether or not you 306 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 6: consider the coconut tree as part of that, then I 307 00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:01,040 Speaker 6: think it maybe adds up to wait, why should we 308 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 6: believe you? So Kamala Harris started claiming in twenty nineteen, 309 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 6: and Breitbart's reporting that some reporting really well done by 310 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:10,040 Speaker 6: the Washington Free Beacon. She started claiming that she had 311 00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 6: a job at McDonald's, you know, when she was younger. 312 00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:15,440 Speaker 6: But she first mentions it in twenty nineteen. There's no 313 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:18,480 Speaker 6: mention of it in either of her memoirs which came 314 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 6: out obviously she was launching and building her political career. 315 00:15:21,680 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 6: And then the Washington Free Beacon has gone and gotten 316 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 6: a form of a nineteen eighty seven job application in 317 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 6: which she has been required to list every previous employment experience. 318 00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 6: Guess what's not on there? 319 00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:33,120 Speaker 1: McDonald. 320 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:35,400 Speaker 6: McDonald's is not on there. And so it's like if 321 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:37,800 Speaker 6: they're lying about that, like if Tim Waltz is lying 322 00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 6: about winning the Young Nebraskan Award, and you know, lying 323 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:44,240 Speaker 6: about much larger things like did you carry a weapon 324 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:46,440 Speaker 6: in war? What was your rank? I think they starts 325 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 6: to add up to a credibility problem that a good 326 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 6: media should hold them accountable. 327 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 1: For they should and in fact things of really high consequence. 328 00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 1: We're going to talk about this in the four o'clock hour. 329 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris ha is tout of the fact that she 330 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 1: has been an aggressive prosecut of sexual crimes against minors. 331 00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:06,120 Speaker 1: That is perhaps I think the biggest lie that he 332 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 1: has shown. In fact, we're going to show in the 333 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:11,720 Speaker 1: four o'clock hour how she actually covered up massive numbers 334 00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 1: of crimes in San Francisco when she was a prosecutor, 335 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:18,680 Speaker 1: that she did so because the people that were backing 336 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 1: her campaign financially were desiring that this problem just sort 337 00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:27,680 Speaker 1: of go away. And it's a massive scandal that has 338 00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:30,479 Speaker 1: been hinted at by a couple news outlets. The Associated 339 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 1: Press covered it in a slight way in twenty nineteen, 340 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:35,320 Speaker 1: but we are going to dissect it in this entirety. 341 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:37,560 Speaker 1: Coming up after this break, we're going to be talking 342 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 1: to the great John Voight about the new film Reagan. 343 00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 3: Didn't the IRS scandal and the NSA atrocities convince you 344 00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 3: you need a watch dog on Washington with insider sources. 345 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 6: You need Hannity every day. Welcome back. It is this 346 00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,520 Speaker 6: Sean Handy Show. Eric Eggers and Peter Schwartzer fill in 347 00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 6: for Sean, and we're so excited not just about our 348 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 6: next guest, but about the film that he's in, which 349 00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:10,439 Speaker 6: debuts in theaters nationwide tomorrow. It's Reagan, which doesn't take 350 00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 6: a genius figure out. It's about Ronald Reagan. Ronald Reagan. 351 00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:14,560 Speaker 6: Peter Schweizer, you actually wrote a book and have been 352 00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 6: involved in a film about Ronald Reagan as well. 353 00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 4: Yeah. 354 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:21,439 Speaker 1: Absolutely, a great, wonderful, heroic figure and I'm thrilled to 355 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:24,440 Speaker 1: have John voight with us because not only is one 356 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:27,120 Speaker 1: of my favorite actors, but he's actually in this film 357 00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:29,520 Speaker 1: and he plays I think, a very important role because 358 00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:33,119 Speaker 1: I've always believed that the people that understood Reagan the 359 00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 1: best were the Soviets, and that's why they hated him 360 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:39,359 Speaker 1: so much, because they knew what he was about. John, 361 00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 1: are you there. 362 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:45,400 Speaker 4: Yes, I'm with you, guys. I'm you two of my heroes. 363 00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:50,000 Speaker 4: So I'm just thinking to my heroes doing what they do. 364 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 1: You are wonderful. I have enjoyed so many of your films, 365 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 1: and I'm looking forward to seeing Reagan. I have not 366 00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:59,600 Speaker 1: seen it yet. Tell me, John, what was it like 367 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 1: when they came to you about this film and they 368 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 1: told you, we don't actually want you to play Reagan 369 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 1: or whin of Reagan's people. We want you to play 370 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 1: this KGB agent who's trying to dissect who Reagan is 371 00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 1: and counter what Reagan does. 372 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:18,240 Speaker 4: Yeah. Well, I thought that they showed me the script 373 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,520 Speaker 4: and I it was a big, sprawling script at the time, 374 00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 4: and Dennis was attached to it, and they and I 375 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 4: looked at it and I thought it was a very 376 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:36,160 Speaker 4: good idea that they had to show this fellow who 377 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:43,480 Speaker 4: actually carry he's assigned to follow the people who might 378 00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 4: be a danger into the future. So they have having 379 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:51,119 Speaker 4: profiles of various people across the world, and they found 380 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 4: this guy who's talking against communism and was a successful 381 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:58,960 Speaker 4: actor in Hollywood and then had a political bent too. 382 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:02,640 Speaker 4: So they want from the beginning, and they put this 383 00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:05,800 Speaker 4: in the film. They put this guy onto him. Now, 384 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:10,239 Speaker 4: this is not a real character of that name, but 385 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 4: it represented several people that were doing this work for 386 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:17,520 Speaker 4: the Soviets, and so I thought it was appropriate. And 387 00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:22,119 Speaker 4: I thought anybody who followed Reagan, you know, would be 388 00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 4: affected by him. And I thought that the film charted 389 00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:28,480 Speaker 4: that kind of course, and it was a good idea, 390 00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:31,480 Speaker 4: and I was right. I think when you see the film, 391 00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:36,439 Speaker 4: you'll you'll see that it works quite well. And it 392 00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:41,520 Speaker 4: would have been lesser had had somebody else been the 393 00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:49,400 Speaker 4: narrator of his rise and his challenges and his and 394 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:51,159 Speaker 4: interpreting his work. You know. 395 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:53,760 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think Peter and I both believe this is 396 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:56,520 Speaker 6: an important film that occurs in an important moment in 397 00:19:56,640 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 6: time in this nation, and so we're very excited about 398 00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 6: the fact that so many people will get the chance 399 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 6: to see this film. John I did a little bit 400 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:07,680 Speaker 6: of research into you in your process, and you've spoken 401 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 6: repeatedly about the importance of preparation in how you've become 402 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:13,640 Speaker 6: such an accomplished actor. And I'm just wondering in your 403 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:16,719 Speaker 6: efforts and your preparation to play someone who works in 404 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:19,600 Speaker 6: Communist Russia, which democrat did you watch the most? 405 00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 4: That's it? Well, you know, thing, the joke is very telling. Obviously, 406 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,520 Speaker 4: there is behavior that is in our own country and 407 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:38,920 Speaker 4: one of our political parties that is very similar to 408 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 4: the Soviet behavior. And unfortunately, but there was a fellow 409 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:49,639 Speaker 4: by name of Yuri Besmanov. Do you know anything about those? Oh? Yes, yes, 410 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:54,399 Speaker 4: well he's he was an amazing fellow who was a 411 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:59,440 Speaker 4: dissident from the Soviet Union, became was a spy, was 412 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:05,400 Speaker 4: an effect if spy, I think, and then found that 413 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:10,800 Speaker 4: he couldn't continue. He was sickened by what he saw 414 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 4: on what he was asked to do, and he became 415 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:15,880 Speaker 4: a dissident, and then he found himself in this country, 416 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:20,160 Speaker 4: in the United States, and then at one point he 417 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:24,760 Speaker 4: felt probably that he had a responsibility, had a moment 418 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:27,239 Speaker 4: of conscience he said, I know what's going on, and 419 00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:30,560 Speaker 4: I should tell them you know, Bull should warn them, 420 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 4: and so he went on, and I made an effort 421 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:38,439 Speaker 4: to get people the information about what was happening to 422 00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 4: our country, how we were being eroded from within, and 423 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:49,000 Speaker 4: the techniques involved in that. And so so I went 424 00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:51,280 Speaker 4: to school on him. I thought he was a terrific 425 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:56,119 Speaker 4: guy and very smart and very laid out the plan 426 00:21:56,320 --> 00:22:02,520 Speaker 4: very clearly, and it followed. It followed what the script 427 00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 4: was saying about this character, and you know, the unions 428 00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:13,399 Speaker 4: getting involved with the unions and had the focus on 429 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 4: Hollywood and the press and stuff. So so anyway, it 430 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 4: was a good connection, and I kind of based my 431 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:23,639 Speaker 4: character a little bit on and the things that I 432 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,000 Speaker 4: found out from your investment off. 433 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:29,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, it seems to me. Again, I haven't seen the film, 434 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:31,320 Speaker 1: but I'm familiar with the book that the film was 435 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 1: based on, a great book done by my dear friend 436 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 1: Paul Kengor. So this is really a film, I think, 437 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:41,960 Speaker 1: ultimately about character and leadership. So you know, when people 438 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:43,720 Speaker 1: think of ou, oh, it's a film about Reagan that 439 00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:46,480 Speaker 1: was forty years ago, it's really not. This is kind 440 00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 1: of timeless principles of leadership. When you think of Reagan 441 00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:55,200 Speaker 1: and what he accomplished and your work in this film, 442 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 1: what are those character traits that really stand out to 443 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:01,680 Speaker 1: you with Reagan and how are they important and relevant 444 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 1: today because we don't face the Soviet Union, but we 445 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:07,200 Speaker 1: face China, we face all these other threats, we face 446 00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:10,600 Speaker 1: domestic threats that I would argue are as relevant and 447 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:13,119 Speaker 1: as dangerous as the Soviet Union ever was during the 448 00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:13,640 Speaker 1: Cold War. 449 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:20,159 Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree with you. I think I think we 450 00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:28,800 Speaker 4: are seeing a great similarity to what Reagan was warning about. 451 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:34,240 Speaker 4: And the thing that he didn't, you know, wasn't able 452 00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:37,919 Speaker 4: to erase was the work that was done since the 453 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:44,720 Speaker 4: forties and fifties, you know, finding ways into our country 454 00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 4: and into our various spots, you know, like the universities 455 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 4: and and you know, taking God out of the schools 456 00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:59,919 Speaker 4: was one of their plans, so, you know, focusing on 457 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:04,000 Speaker 4: these young people coming up, getting into the universities and 458 00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:08,920 Speaker 4: key positions, getting into the teachers' unions, getting into places, 459 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:14,840 Speaker 4: into the press. And they have very very specific ideas 460 00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:18,320 Speaker 4: about what to get into, get into the editorial position 461 00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 4: and newspapers, getting into this and that, and they had 462 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:27,920 Speaker 4: a menu of many There was a book out called 463 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 4: A Naked Communist by a former FBI agent in nineteen 464 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 4: fifty eight came out, and much of that went into 465 00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:46,119 Speaker 4: our own files, and we knew all about it, you know, 466 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:50,160 Speaker 4: what was happening to us, and yet we didn't raise 467 00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:57,200 Speaker 4: the alarm at all over those years. And it happened 468 00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,400 Speaker 4: over my lifetime. I saw it happen, how they took 469 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,040 Speaker 4: over the you know, we see the result of it 470 00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 4: with all of these demonstrations and the and the you know, 471 00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 4: when the presidents of these universities expressed expressed themselves, we 472 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 4: realized that these people are competent, and they're wrong headed, 473 00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:17,800 Speaker 4: and they're dangerous, and that's who are who's running these 474 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 4: these universities now. So they accomplished all that over the years. 475 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 4: Once it started, it just took off and had its 476 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:31,560 Speaker 4: own energy. And that we're facing the full bloom of 477 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:34,840 Speaker 4: it right now. So when you say it's like the 478 00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 4: civic union here, yeah, there's a lot of there's a 479 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:44,840 Speaker 4: lot of aspects to that. We are really taken over 480 00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:45,520 Speaker 4: from within. 481 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 6: Well speak with legendary actor and Hollywood legend John Voight. 482 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 6: John stars in the film Reagan, which debuts and theaters 483 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:59,320 Speaker 6: tomorrow nationwide. I was curious because You've had this amazing 484 00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:03,360 Speaker 6: career and you've managed to star in blockbusters and mainstream films. 485 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:07,160 Speaker 6: This film, hopefully as a blockbuster, hopefully does incredibly well. 486 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:10,879 Speaker 6: But it's clearly a film with a conservative message in ethos, 487 00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:14,200 Speaker 6: in terms of traditional American values. Films like that seem 488 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:18,080 Speaker 6: to attract the same smaller group of actors. Is that 489 00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:22,560 Speaker 6: a coincidence or is it challenging for people that might 490 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:24,399 Speaker 6: believe in these types of things to work in a 491 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:26,960 Speaker 6: film like this and then get regular mainstream work because 492 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:28,680 Speaker 6: you seem like you've been able to do that throughout 493 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:29,199 Speaker 6: your career. 494 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 4: Yeah. Well, there's been a division in Hollywood, there's no 495 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:38,240 Speaker 4: doubt about it. It's very difficult for conservative actors or 496 00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:42,920 Speaker 4: to be openly conservative. So it's been a tough time. 497 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:46,920 Speaker 4: But hopefully that's turning around because of the economics involved. 498 00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 4: You know, people are yearning for films that have a 499 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 4: moral base and celebrate our countries too, So we'll see, 500 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 4: we'll see a change. But we're right in the middle 501 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:04,679 Speaker 4: of the war of it now, don't you think this 502 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:05,120 Speaker 4: is it? 503 00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 6: Yeah? Yeah, yep, exactly, which makes people showing up to 504 00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:11,439 Speaker 6: see the film this weekend all the more relevant, right, 505 00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:13,199 Speaker 6: if you want to support projects, like I said, you 506 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 6: want to see more films like this than films like 507 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:16,480 Speaker 6: this have to do well. 508 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:21,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, well I think yes. I'm hoping that it will 509 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:23,760 Speaker 4: do very well. It's a great film, by the way, 510 00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:26,800 Speaker 4: for people who are listening, it's a wonderful film. And 511 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 4: the acting is terrific, and the script is terrific. It's 512 00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:32,840 Speaker 4: just a great film. It leaves you with a terrific feeling, 513 00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:38,680 Speaker 4: and it's also very moving, and it's also a portrait 514 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:42,880 Speaker 4: of a love story. It shows you the story between 515 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:48,720 Speaker 4: Nancy and Van had had a beautiful of beautiful life together. 516 00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:52,080 Speaker 4: They relied on each other, they were a partnership, and 517 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:56,800 Speaker 4: it was a great love story. And the performances of 518 00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 4: Dennis and penelopean Miller are just wonderful, so I know, 519 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:06,119 Speaker 4: you know, and you can bring the family to it, 520 00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 4: of course. So it's a terrific film. Go see it. 521 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 4: You don't want to more than once, probably it's great. 522 00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, we are definitely going to see it. I 523 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:18,919 Speaker 1: haven't seen a movie in the theater in a while, just 524 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 1: because there's so much out there that I don't like. 525 00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:22,879 Speaker 1: But I am looking forward to seeing this and We 526 00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 1: appreciate you, John very much making the time. I loved 527 00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 1: your work over the years. We appreciate your outspokenness and 528 00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 1: just the great body of work that you've done over 529 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:34,680 Speaker 1: the course of the decades, and we look forward to 530 00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 1: hearing about what's next. 531 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:39,400 Speaker 4: That's wonderful. It's great to talk to you both. 532 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,560 Speaker 1: Much love, thank you, thank you. We're talking with a 533 00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:46,479 Speaker 1: great John Voight. The film coming up is Reagan. Definitely. 534 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:47,960 Speaker 1: When was the last time you went to the theater? 535 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:51,320 Speaker 6: Eric, Well, I have small children, so I'm regularly looking 536 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:54,080 Speaker 6: to kind of farm out my parenting responsibility and I'm 537 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 6: happy to let the godless Heaven to the Hollywood Tale 538 00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 6: handle that for a little while. And I'm even willing 539 00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:01,720 Speaker 6: to overpay for popcorn to do it. So I'm there. 540 00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:05,240 Speaker 6: But he is Peter Swizer. I Americ Eggers, and he 541 00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:07,560 Speaker 6: can judge my parenting later. This is the Sean Handy Show. 542 00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 6: We'll be right back after this. Welcome back. It's Eric 543 00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:12,479 Speaker 6: Eggers and Peter Schwitz are feeling in for Sean Handy 544 00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:15,280 Speaker 6: on a Thursday afternoon. Now, Peter, we were just speaking 545 00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:17,280 Speaker 6: during the break. We just talked to the legendary John 546 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 6: Voyd who's starring in this film about Ron Reagan, which 547 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:22,600 Speaker 6: debuts again in theaters this weekend. Now you have another 548 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:25,880 Speaker 6: California politician who's running for president, and one difference between 549 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:28,040 Speaker 6: the two of them is when Ron Reagan ran for president, 550 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,560 Speaker 6: he'd lived his career very much in the public spotlight, 551 00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:33,120 Speaker 6: had been an actor, he'd been governor. We knew a 552 00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 6: lot about his past and even policy reversals he'd experienced 553 00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 6: and explained. But Kamala Harris is maybe less so that way. 554 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:41,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's right, And I think one of the things 555 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:44,040 Speaker 1: we try to do with the Government Accountability Institute, we 556 00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 1: try to do on our podcast, the drill Down, is 557 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:49,880 Speaker 1: exposed stories that the media is not covering when they're zigging, 558 00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 1: we're zagging because ultimately that's how you get information out. 559 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:57,040 Speaker 1: And the problem is you ask most people, even informed people, 560 00:29:57,120 --> 00:30:00,360 Speaker 1: what they actually know about what Kamala Harris did as 561 00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 1: a prosecutor or what she didn't do as a prosecutor. 562 00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:06,360 Speaker 1: When you look at some of the other scandalous questions 563 00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:10,000 Speaker 1: about conflicts of interest, about covering up potential crimes for 564 00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:14,840 Speaker 1: family members or for major campaign donors, nobody knows about it. 565 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:16,920 Speaker 1: Nobody knows about it. So we're going to talk about 566 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:19,160 Speaker 1: that here in the four o'clock hour and do the 567 00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 1: job that the media is not doing, because this is 568 00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:24,760 Speaker 1: information that everybody should know. And here we are. She 569 00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:28,320 Speaker 1: might be president in a couple of months, and people 570 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:33,400 Speaker 1: know very little about her record when she was in California. 571 00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:36,000 Speaker 6: Now that's despite your best efforts, because you actually did 572 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:38,479 Speaker 6: a whole chapter on Kamala Harris and your book, Profiles 573 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:40,680 Speaker 6: and the Corruption, which came out in twenty twenty. Yeah, 574 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 6: so this is four years ago when we kind of 575 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:46,320 Speaker 6: did it an analysis of the political vulnerabilities and scandals 576 00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 6: and corruption examples that were true for a number of 577 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:52,000 Speaker 6: potential Democratic front wrots Kamala Harris. I think we had 578 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 6: some of the better material there, but that's not stuff 579 00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:57,280 Speaker 6: you've seen anywhere else. It hasn't been reference on a 580 00:30:57,320 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 6: regular basis, and that's because Kamala Harris herself as a 581 00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:03,920 Speaker 6: presidential candidate performed so poorly. She didn't do well enough 582 00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:06,960 Speaker 6: to even get asked the tough questions. And what's crazy 583 00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,560 Speaker 6: is that she's now managed to become the actual presidential 584 00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 6: nominee without winning any primaries or without facing again any 585 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:16,360 Speaker 6: challenging questions that allegedly changed tonight. I don't think it will. 586 00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 6: But the point is that's why this information matters so much. 587 00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 6: This has been out there for four years, but you 588 00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:23,800 Speaker 6: probably haven't heard about it. Major scandals related to Kamala Harris. 589 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:26,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, we've got new updates on Kamala Harris. And I 590 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:30,240 Speaker 1: think it's important to understand where and how she uses 591 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:33,760 Speaker 1: power because when she was a prosecutor in California, she 592 00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 1: engaged in massive abuses of power. And I think when 593 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:39,400 Speaker 1: you look at the sort of things that are happening 594 00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:42,440 Speaker 1: in the Department of Justice under Joe Biden, I will 595 00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 1: tell you if she becomes president of the United States, 596 00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:49,200 Speaker 1: you probably have not seen anything remotely resembling what she's 597 00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 1: about to do because her ability to use and abuse 598 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:56,120 Speaker 1: the power of the courts for her political benefit is 599 00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:57,200 Speaker 1: unmatched in my mind. 600 00:31:57,280 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 6: Yeah, and by the way, we'll hear in the five 601 00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:01,720 Speaker 6: o'clock hour from somebody who lived under Tim Waltz's Minnesota 602 00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:04,240 Speaker 6: COVID tyranny who will say, you do not want this 603 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:07,360 Speaker 6: lack of liberty at the federal level. So coming up, 604 00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:10,400 Speaker 6: we will hear about Kamala Harris and the lies she's 605 00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:12,280 Speaker 6: telling you and how it covers up the real scandal 606 00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:14,200 Speaker 6: and a trackerd that's next on The Sean Hanny Show.
