1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:04,160
Speaker 1: Accuse me, as a Democrat, of not caring about national threats.

2
00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:07,640
Speaker 1: I very much wanted to talk about those. In fact,

3
00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:11,840
Speaker 1: had prepared questions in advance of this hearing about those threats,

4
00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:16,120
Speaker 1: specifically about biosecurity and bioterrorism. But I don't have time

5
00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:20,120
Speaker 1: to ask those questions because the threat is in the house,

6
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:23,239
Speaker 1: the threat is across the DAIS, and I need to

7
00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:26,759
Speaker 1: ask these questions. It's my job to ask these questions

8
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:30,080
Speaker 1: of you, because when I served in the military, and

9
00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:33,839
Speaker 1: I served in classified environments, had this happened to me,

10
00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:37,400
Speaker 1: I would have walked my resignation in immediately.

11
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 2: This is not okay.

12
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:42,519
Speaker 1: Communicating these sorts of things in signal is not okay.

13
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:47,879
Speaker 1: Targets times, those kinds of things are absolutely classified, and

14
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:48,919
Speaker 1: we all know it.

15
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:52,559
Speaker 2: I know it, these people know it. You all know it.

16
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 1: And the fact that we're having to have these conversations

17
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:58,240
Speaker 1: now means that I can't ask the questions that I

18
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:01,680
Speaker 1: need to ask about things like biodel terrorism and biosecurity.

19
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,440
Speaker 1: And so I'd like to put you in check as well, sir,

20
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:07,680
Speaker 1: because you can't assume who I am any more than

21
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:10,440
Speaker 1: I can assume who you are. Sir, I would like

22
00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:14,480
Speaker 1: to move my questions, however, over to Director Gabbert, because

23
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:17,360
Speaker 1: you are the d and I, you do have an

24
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 1: obligation and a responsibility. I'm going to speak to you

25
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:24,319
Speaker 1: specifically about the fact that you have spent much of

26
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:29,679
Speaker 1: your forty days talking about the importance of making sure

27
00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,840
Speaker 1: that we don't reveal classified information, making sure that we

28
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:36,680
Speaker 1: don't leak information. You're a former battalion commander in the Army.

29
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:40,040
Speaker 1: I don't think that you would have necessarily appreciated the

30
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 1: kind of leaking of information that I believe absolutely did

31
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 1: happen in this signal channel and is worthy of a

32
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 1: further investigation. In fact, this committee established something called fifty

33
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 1: USC thirty two to thirty five A, and this committee,

34
00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:57,840
Speaker 1: on a bipars and a parsan basis, requires you, the DNI,

35
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 1: to swiftly notify Congress and the Intelligence Committee if you're

36
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 1: aware of any sort of significant unauthorized disclosure or compromise

37
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: of classified information, which I would argue this has all

38
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 1: of the markings of being that and so if you,

39
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:14,639
Speaker 1: as the d and I, see such a thing anywhere

40
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:18,400
Speaker 1: within your organizations of purview, you have the obligation to

41
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 1: begin an investigation to report back to us on that.

42
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 1: Would this seem to qualify to you as something worthy

43
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 1: of that investigation?

44
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:32,559
Speaker 3: Thank you for your question, Congresswoman. In this situation, Secretary

45
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 3: Hegseeth has the classification and d classic over DoD information.

46
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,080
Speaker 1: This chat did not have the auspice of being a

47
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:45,240
Speaker 1: DoD chat. There's no such thing as labeling it as DoD.

48
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 1: This was a chat amongst a great variety of people.

49
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 1: And you, according to our law that we passed here bipartisanally,

50
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:56,800
Speaker 1: have an obligation when you think there has been a tangible,

51
00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 1: significant leak of information to instigate an investigation. Do you

52
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 1: not think it's important to do such a thing.

53
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:07,440
Speaker 3: The National Security Council is investigating this inadvertent leak, and

54
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,840
Speaker 3: again I point to Secretary heg Seth as having the classification.

55
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:13,400
Speaker 1: I would argue that Secretary head Seth, if he had

56
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 1: the dignity that he needs to have, should be walking

57
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 1: his resignation. And because I believe that his probably is

58
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:20,920
Speaker 1: heading toward being relieved of his duty based on what

59
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:25,520
Speaker 1: I think are significant and illegal leaks most likely, I

60
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 1: would like it if you would please commit to this

61
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 1: organization that you will follow the law, and I would

62
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:32,639
Speaker 1: like it if you would also investigate what is likely

63
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 1: to be more than just this chat, because if there's one,

64
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:36,839
Speaker 1: there's more than one.

65
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:38,200
Speaker 2: If there's smoke, there's fire.

66
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 1: Will you please obligate yourself and your organization to that investigation.

67
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, Congressoman, Yes, I will follow the law.

68
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 2: Thank you. I appreciate that.

69
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 1: And Director Patel, I learned just recently that you only

70
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 1: heard about this yesterday, which blows my mind since I

71
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 1: heard about it two days ago and I'm just a

72
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 1: low on the diist, you know, Junior Chipmunk here, did

73
00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:58,560
Speaker 1: you really only hear about this yesterday?

74
00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 4: The exact time line I'm not aware of, but yeah,

75
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 4: I think it was yesterday or the night.

76
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 2: Now that another day has passed.

77
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 5: You actually was the night before the hearing.

78
00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 1: Now that another day has passed, you believe that it's

79
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 1: now time potentially for the FBI to open an investigation

80
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 1: into this.

81
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 5: I'm not going to comment on that.

82
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 1: Because you're the director of the FBI. You don't believe

83
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:17,840
Speaker 1: it's appropriate to comment on that.

84
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,600
Speaker 4: Because there's a process in place, there's an ongoing litigation,

85
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:22,200
Speaker 4: and the National Security Council.

86
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 5: Is reviewing this matter.

87
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,600
Speaker 4: Now, I'm not going to discuss any open or clothes,

88
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 4: and I'm going investigation.

89
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 1: Literally, the lawsuit happened today or yesterday afternoon, and the

90
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,000
Speaker 1: idea that you don't have an opinion on this at

91
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 1: this point is frustrating to me.

92
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:36,479
Speaker 5: No, it's not. I'm not going to prejudge any matter.

93
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 5: Women of the FBI will.

94
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:40,280
Speaker 2: Claim all the calls.

95
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:44,920
Speaker 6: You, sir, mister Chairman, I'd like to have gentleman's recognized.

96
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:46,719
Speaker 7: You have four seconds remaining.

97
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:47,960
Speaker 2: No, I have more than that.

98
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:52,600
Speaker 6: Two seconds remain. A gentleman's time has expired, mister Stewby.

99
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,640
Speaker 8: Thank you, mister Chairman. Director Gabbert. Were there any sources

100
00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:56,800
Speaker 8: described in the single chat?

101
00:04:59,240 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 3: No, Congressman.

102
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,440
Speaker 8: Were there any methods described in the signal chat?

103
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 9: No?

104
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:04,160
Speaker 10: Were there any locations?

105
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:04,800
Speaker 11: No.

106
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:07,240
Speaker 8: Therefore, do to the fact that there were no sources,

107
00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:09,919
Speaker 8: no methods, nor locations described in the signal chat, it

108
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 8: does not make the discussion classified.

109
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:12,160
Speaker 10: Is that correct?

110
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:16,000
Speaker 3: That is up to the Secretary of Defense determination.

111
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 8: The Democrats are obviously making the assertions that what was

112
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 8: in the signal chat was classified and claiming that Secretary

113
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,440
Speaker 8: Hegseth put this war plan out to the world which

114
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,000
Speaker 8: he clearly did not. Were there any names in the

115
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 8: signal chat? No, any targets, No, any locations?

116
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:31,720
Speaker 11: No?

117
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 8: Was there a unit name or location of that unit?

118
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:35,720
Speaker 12: There was not.

119
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 10: Were there any routes described in the single chat?

120
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 13: No?

121
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 8: Wouldn't an operational plan contain that type of information.

122
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 3: Every operational plan I've ever seen has contained that information.

123
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 10: Thank you.

124
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 8: Shifting to the real threats to America the southern border.

125
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,240
Speaker 8: Do the previous administration's open border policies? They allowed over

126
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 8: ten million illegals into our country, and during that time,

127
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 8: there was one five hundred and eleven terrorists related in

128
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:01,960
Speaker 8: encounters at land border ports.

129
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:03,480
Speaker 10: Of entry, according to CBP.

130
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 8: As someone who fought in the War on Terrra, I

131
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:09,039
Speaker 8: find this deeply offensive that the previous administration would sacrifice

132
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 8: the security and safety the American people in the manner

133
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,719
Speaker 8: in which they allowed terrorists, criminals, and rapists into our country.

134
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,760
Speaker 8: In your testimony, you state, and I quote based on

135
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 8: the latest reporting available for year long period ending October

136
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:24,040
Speaker 8: twenty twenty four, cartels were largely responsible for the deaths

137
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 8: of more than fifty four thousand US citizens from synthetic opioids.

138
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:29,920
Speaker 8: A lot of those citizens are from my home state

139
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:34,000
Speaker 8: of Florida. Cartels, narco terrorists, and other violent, transnational criminal

140
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:37,960
Speaker 8: organizations have violated the territorial integrity and sovereignty of the

141
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:41,200
Speaker 8: United States and have also fueled human trafficking and the

142
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:44,359
Speaker 8: opioid epidemic that many of my fellow Floridians have witnessed

143
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,120
Speaker 8: for far too long. I applaud President Trump and his

144
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:50,880
Speaker 8: swift decision to designate the Marco terrorists and Mexican cartels

145
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:53,719
Speaker 8: as foreign terrorists organizations, and I want to thank each

146
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,320
Speaker 8: of you for making this a priority to fight against

147
00:06:56,400 --> 00:07:00,400
Speaker 8: Mexican cartels, traffickers, narco terrorists that have been responded for

148
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:04,039
Speaker 8: killing hundreds of thousands of Americans. For every narco terrorist

149
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:07,279
Speaker 8: and cartael member violating our sovereignty poisoning the American people

150
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 8: with finanyl and other illicit opioids. Know this your days

151
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 8: are numbered, and know that the full force of the

152
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:16,760
Speaker 8: US government will soon address EU atrocities once and for all.

153
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 8: Director Patel, It's no secret that there is a growing

154
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 8: presence of Mexican cartels operating fentanyl synthesis labs just over

155
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 8: our border. Just last year, the CBP estimates that more

156
00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 8: than twelve, twenty one thousand pounds of fentanyl was seized

157
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 8: at our borders. That is enough to kill more than

158
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:36,320
Speaker 8: twice the population of the world of our country. What

159
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:39,000
Speaker 8: actions are you taking to strengthen the FBI's fight against

160
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:40,600
Speaker 8: illicit fentanyl within our borders.

161
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 4: Thank you, Congressman, it's good to see you. We have

162
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 4: made it a priority at the FBI because fentanyl and

163
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 4: legal narcotics killing American citizen every seven minutes. That is

164
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:51,960
Speaker 4: a national security crisis, not just at the southern border,

165
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,560
Speaker 4: but at the northern border. And the Mexican cartels along

166
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,560
Speaker 4: with their illicit partners and the CCP and other adversarial

167
00:07:57,680 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 4: countries that are doing harm are not just taking the

168
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 4: fight down south, but they're bringing it up north. So

169
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:04,760
Speaker 4: we need to be more vigilant as to what's coming

170
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 4: in through our northern border. As well known and suspected

171
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 4: terrorists are flowing in through our northern border more than

172
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,280
Speaker 4: they are there are southern border, I would say, because

173
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:14,960
Speaker 4: of the successes we've had in closing the southern border.

174
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 4: But when it comes to specifically excuse me, to fentanyl

175
00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:21,520
Speaker 4: we are making to date since January twenty three hundred

176
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,440
Speaker 4: and eighty three kilograms of caesars of illegal fentanyl, which

177
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:26,800
Speaker 4: is enough to kill twenty nine million Americans.

178
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 8: And other than enhancing border security measures, what would be

179
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,760
Speaker 8: the most worthwhile action the United States could take to

180
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 8: eliminate the cartels and stop the flow of illicit fentanyl.

181
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:37,439
Speaker 5: I got one answer for you.

182
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,640
Speaker 4: They're making the precursors in mainland China and where we

183
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:42,880
Speaker 4: don't have the authorities to go after that fight there,

184
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 4: and we need to take it head on because without

185
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,560
Speaker 4: the chemicals and precursors, there is no fentanyl, and they

186
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 4: are moving that material around the world and into the

187
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:52,000
Speaker 4: United States too freely.

188
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,560
Speaker 8: Director Gabbard, I'd like to reemphasize the threat that our

189
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:58,960
Speaker 8: adversaries are exploiting via fentanyl and other illicit drugs that

190
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,360
Speaker 8: are entering our country through the border and poisoning millions

191
00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 8: of Americans nationwide. It's essential that all components of our

192
00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 8: national security apparatus are united in their efforts to protect

193
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:10,599
Speaker 8: the American people in our communities from such harm. Is

194
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:12,920
Speaker 8: there any reason to believe that the Mexican government isn't

195
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:16,559
Speaker 8: doing enough to finally eradicate the cartels and other transnational

196
00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:17,560
Speaker 8: criminal organizations.

197
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 10: Operating just over the border.

198
00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,280
Speaker 3: Congressman, I can only speak from my vantage point. As

199
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,920
Speaker 3: was stated previously by Director Ratcliffe, we have already been

200
00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 3: introduced to and begun collaborating with our counterparts in the

201
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 3: Mexico and the Mexican government. Could there be more done?

202
00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:38,240
Speaker 3: I would say absolutely yes. I know that the Trump

203
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,840
Speaker 3: administration across his cabinet are looking at opportunities to be

204
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:42,520
Speaker 3: able to do that.

205
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:46,120
Speaker 8: And Director Patel just hit on this with CCP and precursors.

206
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 8: But to what extent have we seen other malicious actors

207
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:52,439
Speaker 8: worldwide partner with the cartels to infiltrate and target the United.

208
00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:58,439
Speaker 3: States related to the production of fentanyl. Yes, Ma India

209
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,840
Speaker 3: is one of those countries that is providing some of

210
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:05,080
Speaker 3: those precursor materials as well as equipment.

211
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:06,959
Speaker 10: Thank you for being today here today.

212
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:08,840
Speaker 7: My time's expired, gentlemen yields.

213
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 14: Mister Quigley, thanks, Chairman. And I know it's all us

214
00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:15,600
Speaker 14: who are worried about this only, but apparently the SIN

215
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 14: Arms Armed Services Committee Chairman ranking member requested Inspector General

216
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 14: report on this chat. So I'll tell you why more

217
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 14: people are worried about this than you might think.

218
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:27,839
Speaker 5: And that's.

219
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:30,960
Speaker 10: Director Gabbert.

220
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:34,840
Speaker 14: Your position was created post nine to eleven because of

221
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,319
Speaker 14: the horrible intel failure that took place, so we weren't

222
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:42,560
Speaker 14: sharing information. It wasn't adequately shared within the community and

223
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:48,560
Speaker 14: between our allies. We have to believe that our allies

224
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:52,240
Speaker 14: look at this as a colossal mistake and at least

225
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 14: hesitate to a certain extent wanting to share sensitive information

226
00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:00,800
Speaker 14: with us that keeps us safe because they're worried about

227
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:04,360
Speaker 14: their sources and methods as well. Wouldn't you be at

228
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:07,360
Speaker 14: least some somewhat concerned that our allies would look at

229
00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:11,079
Speaker 14: this and say that wasn't the perfect way to communicate.

230
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:16,240
Speaker 3: Congressman, thank you for the question. If that information that

231
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 3: was put out in the chat by the Secretary of

232
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:23,439
Speaker 3: Defense had included specific sources and methods and targets and names,

233
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:25,000
Speaker 3: then the answer would be yes.

234
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:26,080
Speaker 15: But that was not the case.

235
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:27,839
Speaker 14: Let me stop you there, because they have such a

236
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 14: little bit of time.

237
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:29,880
Speaker 5: Generals look.

238
00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:33,080
Speaker 14: You here, because you got tough spots, so I have

239
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:36,960
Speaker 14: to put you on the spots. You're passing information like

240
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:40,320
Speaker 14: this just within your agency, and you know that it's

241
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:45,760
Speaker 14: going to include we are go for mission launch hoo, they's.

242
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 15: Sea lanes.

243
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:54,840
Speaker 14: The information about the weapons systems that gets to the

244
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:58,880
Speaker 14: Hoothy military commanders, doesn't it make you think they're at

245
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 14: least going to say duck.

246
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:05,960
Speaker 16: Thank you for the opportunity to weigh on weigh in

247
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:09,880
Speaker 16: on the issue. Yes, if we were collecting this on

248
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 16: our adversaries and we're able to get this information, as

249
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 16: was asked of General Hawk earlier, we would consider that classified.

250
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:21,079
Speaker 16: But it's classified under the collection piece. The data that

251
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 16: we're talking about here is the operational data, not the

252
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:25,840
Speaker 16: intelligence data.

253
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:30,440
Speaker 14: Just because we have limited time, Secretaries, the Houthy's military

254
00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:32,640
Speaker 14: leader is gonna duck when he hears this, or he's

255
00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:34,439
Speaker 14: going to take some action. He's going to try to

256
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:35,720
Speaker 14: shoot our planes down right.

257
00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:39,960
Speaker 16: If he has actionable intelligence, he will certainly use.

258
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:41,720
Speaker 15: I'm talking about this intelligence.

259
00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:44,440
Speaker 14: You don't think he can figure out who they's has

260
00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:46,840
Speaker 14: mentioned a couple of times sea lanes, they show the

261
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:52,360
Speaker 14: weapons system missed. At least it's incredible warning to him,

262
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:53,440
Speaker 14: I would offer.

263
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 16: The Hoothy's defensive position has been constant since the Fifteenth Warrench.

264
00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:00,000
Speaker 15: All right, General, I'll just take a while.

265
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:07,360
Speaker 14: You're the Houthi's military leader, you get this information passed

266
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:10,199
Speaker 14: on to you, it doesn't make you at least take warning.

267
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:15,559
Speaker 17: I would congress, And I think from the Houthi's perspective,

268
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:19,040
Speaker 17: they do have air defense equipment and they would be

269
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 17: able to detect aircraft being able when they're entered into

270
00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 17: the Red Sea, and certainly when we have our intelligence

271
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,160
Speaker 17: aircraft operating over top of their country, they'd be able

272
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 17: to detect that activity.

273
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:37,080
Speaker 14: But being forewarned is extraordinarily important. I'll take another stab

274
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:43,120
Speaker 14: at it. If just language like this in a different context, okay,

275
00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:49,160
Speaker 14: but just within your department, sir, your people are passing

276
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:53,640
Speaker 14: this information, do you advise them? Maybe they don't use

277
00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 14: signal on this?

278
00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:55,679
Speaker 10: Are there other forms?

279
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:57,480
Speaker 14: Obviously they're going to be more secure.

280
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:00,199
Speaker 16: What I would offer is the data that we be

281
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:03,080
Speaker 16: passing would be the full target packages and the full

282
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:04,960
Speaker 16: set of operational information.

283
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:07,240
Speaker 14: Okay, but even though it was just this, do you

284
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:11,200
Speaker 14: really want to give possibilities that they could be breached

285
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:15,559
Speaker 14: hacked and they would get this information? Wouldn't you even

286
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:18,880
Speaker 14: with just this, or respectfully, wouldn't you want to use

287
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,880
Speaker 14: a more secure means of communicating.

288
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 16: I think what I would offer two things, and hopefully

289
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:26,760
Speaker 16: they're helpful to you.

290
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:28,000
Speaker 12: One of them would.

291
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:30,560
Speaker 16: Be in addition to that full package that we would

292
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 16: talk about, when the Secretary extracted individual details from that

293
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:39,240
Speaker 16: and provided those on signal, whether individually or an aggregate.

294
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:41,360
Speaker 16: That is his decision of what is classified what is

295
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:45,560
Speaker 16: not from an operational aspect, and that's probably the most

296
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 16: important relevant piece to there. And I would echo what

297
00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:53,400
Speaker 16: we've said before. It's the Secretary's authority for the just

298
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:53,760
Speaker 16: get me.

299
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:57,040
Speaker 14: There's more secure ways of communicating any of this right

300
00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 14: there in.

301
00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:00,760
Speaker 16: Our adversaries have a right to intercept.

302
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:05,000
Speaker 14: There's much more secure means that you use, even if

303
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:09,720
Speaker 14: you don't think that this is or you don't want to.

304
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:10,680
Speaker 5: Stick your say is.

305
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:16,680
Speaker 17: The full packages would were transmitted within classified, within traditional classified,

306
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 17: but this.

307
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,640
Speaker 14: Could have been transmitted in a classified way as well.

308
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:22,120
Speaker 7: Thank you, Gentleman's times expired.

309
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:25,160
Speaker 6: A gentleman from Arkansas, the distinguished chair of the Financial

310
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:27,040
Speaker 6: Services Committee, mister Hills recognized.

311
00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:29,800
Speaker 18: Thank you, miss chairman, and let me say Director Gabbart

312
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:32,200
Speaker 18: and a Director Radcliff. It's so great to have you

313
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:35,120
Speaker 18: back in the long Worth House office building. The food's

314
00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:39,680
Speaker 18: the same, but you're you're welcome anytime Director Ratcliffe, you

315
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,120
Speaker 18: know we've served for ten years together. I'm certainly aware

316
00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:44,120
Speaker 18: of your extraordinary service at the d and I and

317
00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:47,040
Speaker 18: here in Congress. And I just have a couple of

318
00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:50,760
Speaker 18: follow up questions on this topic of the signal chat.

319
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:54,600
Speaker 18: Were there any war plans distributed in that signal chat?

320
00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:57,440
Speaker 10: No, Congressman, and we're.

321
00:15:57,280 --> 00:16:00,560
Speaker 18: Sources and methods that would compromise our intelligence system or

322
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 18: your agents in the field around the world. They were

323
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:05,200
Speaker 18: they discussed on the signal Chat.

324
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 9: No.

325
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:08,760
Speaker 18: I appreciate that. I just think that's an important thing

326
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:11,880
Speaker 18: to have on the record. Director Patel, I co chair

327
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:17,280
Speaker 18: the Americans Wrongly Detained American Hostage Task Force here in

328
00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:20,960
Speaker 18: the House. And I just fact, in fact left Tigre

329
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,360
Speaker 18: and gambera In, a former FBI official who I helped

330
00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:26,480
Speaker 18: get out of prison in Nigeria last year. I just

331
00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:30,760
Speaker 18: left him a few minutes ago. You've been you know

332
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:32,960
Speaker 18: this issue very very well. And President Trump's made such

333
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:35,360
Speaker 18: a commitment to bring Americans home.

334
00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:37,280
Speaker 10: There's some thirty Americans.

335
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:40,520
Speaker 18: Still wrongfully detained or held hostage abroad. Is the FBI

336
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:44,600
Speaker 18: committing to work through it's officials in our embassies around

337
00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:46,040
Speaker 18: the world to bring those Americans home.

338
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:47,400
Speaker 5: Thank you, Congressmannan.

339
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:50,880
Speaker 4: As you know from my prior service in the prior administration,

340
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:54,840
Speaker 4: President Trump brought home over fifty hostages and detainees worldwide,

341
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 4: and that effort is being redoubled now until every single

342
00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:00,640
Speaker 4: American is home and the FBI, from my perspective, has

343
00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:04,200
Speaker 4: been given a directive that any wrongfully detained or captured

344
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:06,320
Speaker 4: person overseas is a priority to bring back.

345
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:09,080
Speaker 18: We're so grateful to the President for making this a priority.

346
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:12,520
Speaker 18: We don't want our citizens that hold a Blue passport

347
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:14,920
Speaker 18: to suddenly be a target in all their interactions around

348
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:17,000
Speaker 18: the world. That's wrong, and I'm glad President Trump's made

349
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:19,240
Speaker 18: a priority. I look forward to working with you on that.

350
00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:24,040
Speaker 18: Since November of twenty twenty three, I've been pursuing aggressively

351
00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:27,679
Speaker 18: in this committee the US government's policies and procedures for

352
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:33,560
Speaker 18: handling border encounters, specifically known or suspected terrorists. To quote

353
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:37,040
Speaker 18: former FBI directors a testimony before the Senate, they're blinking

354
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:42,520
Speaker 18: lights everywhere of concern. But despite my numerous attempts, including

355
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:50,080
Speaker 18: multiple briefing requests, letters, legislative provisions, a GAO report requested

356
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:54,800
Speaker 18: the prior administration refused to provide requested information and data

357
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,600
Speaker 18: on what the public now knows was a very dangerous

358
00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:01,600
Speaker 18: situation along the US borders that President Trump now has

359
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:05,680
Speaker 18: as a priority of fixing. In January twenty twenty four

360
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,119
Speaker 18: to one hundred and seventy six thousand encounters along the

361
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:11,159
Speaker 18: southern border, with fifty one thousand occurring at ports of

362
00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:14,280
Speaker 18: entry and one hundred and twenty four thousand between ports

363
00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:16,879
Speaker 18: of entry. Comparing that to the work just in the

364
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:20,199
Speaker 18: first few weeks of the Trump administration, total encounters are

365
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:23,439
Speaker 18: down to sixty one thousand along the border, with thirty

366
00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:26,440
Speaker 18: two at ports of entry and twenty nine thousand between

367
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:30,000
Speaker 18: ports of entry. For the record, that's a sixty percent reduction,

368
00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:33,760
Speaker 18: Director Patel since President Trump took office in January. As

369
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:37,960
Speaker 18: we've seen these plummeting border encounter numbers, has the country

370
00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:41,840
Speaker 18: seen a drop in known or suspected TERRORICE encounters at

371
00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:42,280
Speaker 18: the border?

372
00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:45,240
Speaker 4: Thank you, Congressman. It's one of the issues I really

373
00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:48,040
Speaker 4: wanted to address today, and I think the country deserves

374
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:52,119
Speaker 4: to know that known or suspected terrors ksts are coming

375
00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:55,480
Speaker 4: in with much less frequency at the southern border. In fact,

376
00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:59,199
Speaker 4: if my information is correct two since January twentieth, and

377
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:02,199
Speaker 4: they are coming in with much greater frequency in the

378
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:04,919
Speaker 4: northern border, and since January twenty at that number is

379
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:07,640
Speaker 4: thirty four and those metrics carry out over the last

380
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:10,040
Speaker 4: year in terms of ratio. So what it tells me

381
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,560
Speaker 4: is that known or suspected terrorists, the individuals that want

382
00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:16,080
Speaker 4: to do the most harm to this country are utilizing

383
00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:18,440
Speaker 4: the northern border, and we got to refocus assets up there.

384
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:20,159
Speaker 18: Yeah, which I think is good and I'm glad the

385
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 18: prior administration did declassify the ISIS arrests in Philadelphia and

386
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:29,480
Speaker 18: did declassify the citizen that was coming across the northern

387
00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:31,960
Speaker 18: border to do harm on election day. That's good, but

388
00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:34,440
Speaker 18: we have much more to do, and Director Gabbett, I

389
00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:39,320
Speaker 18: need your help working with your colleagues here. It's this

390
00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:44,880
Speaker 18: idea of requesting coordination between Director Patel, Secretary Secretary NOME,

391
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:49,000
Speaker 18: and the committee with fused data on known or suspected terrorists,

392
00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:54,159
Speaker 18: whether it's TSA data, BP data, FBI internal data. We

393
00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:57,200
Speaker 18: want to have that coming to us. Where are these people,

394
00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:59,679
Speaker 18: what's been done with them? What is the government's position.

395
00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:01,720
Speaker 18: Will you commit to work with us as ODE and

396
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:03,919
Speaker 18: how to get this information from across the government.

397
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:07,720
Speaker 3: I see absolutely, Congressman, and as you know, our National

398
00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:13,200
Speaker 3: counter Terrorism Center was really created to fulfill exactly that tasks,

399
00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:16,879
Speaker 3: so that we're not dealing with multiple vetting systems that

400
00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:19,800
Speaker 3: are coming up with different results. That we have this

401
00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:23,640
Speaker 3: central vetting database to be able to identify those known

402
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:26,400
Speaker 3: or suspected terrorists who may be trying to come into

403
00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:29,800
Speaker 3: our country, or who may be one of the tens

404
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:34,240
Speaker 3: of millions who illegally crossed into our border, may have

405
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:36,240
Speaker 3: come into our country during the last four years.

406
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 18: We look forward to working with you. Thank you for

407
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:38,879
Speaker 18: your answers, and now you go.

408
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:41,800
Speaker 7: Back, gentlemen Yields, Miss Tinney, thank.

409
00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:43,239
Speaker 19: You, mister Chairman, and thank you so much to all

410
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:45,240
Speaker 19: of you. There's so many great questions that I have

411
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:47,680
Speaker 19: to ask for. Let me just I want to start

412
00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:50,000
Speaker 19: with Director Patel, and I just want to first before

413
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:52,640
Speaker 19: I get into a couple issues. Thank you so much

414
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:55,919
Speaker 19: for your outstanding service and your recognition and focus on

415
00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:58,760
Speaker 19: the northern border. My entire district is the northern border

416
00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:01,960
Speaker 19: of New York with CAM I just want to first

417
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:06,840
Speaker 19: jump into this issue for Hamas attacked October seventh World

418
00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:11,400
Speaker 19: Watch in Horror designated a foreign terrorist organization nineteen ninety seven,

419
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,800
Speaker 19: killed over twelve hundred civilians and including American citizens in

420
00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:19,199
Speaker 19: many remain hostages. Only slightly less disturbing, We had a

421
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:23,400
Speaker 19: myriad of seemingly coordinated pro Hamas demonstrations that have taken

422
00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:25,960
Speaker 19: place all over the United States, in my state of

423
00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:30,000
Speaker 19: New York on college campuses in Washington, d C. Universities,

424
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:34,919
Speaker 19: Director Pattel, does the FBI have any open investigations into

425
00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:38,560
Speaker 19: the organization, the leadership, and the funding of these pro

426
00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:42,359
Speaker 19: Hamas demonstrations with students such as and groups such as

427
00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:44,040
Speaker 19: Students for Justice in Palestine.

428
00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:45,119
Speaker 5: Thank you, ma'am.

429
00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:48,359
Speaker 4: And I'm limited by what the Attorney General has already publicized,

430
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:50,600
Speaker 4: but as you know, there are open investigations based on

431
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:51,479
Speaker 4: what's been made public.

432
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:52,280
Speaker 20: Okay.

433
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,359
Speaker 19: Has the FBI uncovered any evidence of foreign support for

434
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:58,919
Speaker 19: these Hamas demonstrations, including other than Iran any of these

435
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,320
Speaker 19: groups I might mention, like Students for Justice and palesin

436
00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:02,320
Speaker 19: and anything that's open.

437
00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:03,240
Speaker 10: Source that we can talk about.

438
00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:04,320
Speaker 5: That's the longgoing.

439
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:07,399
Speaker 19: Thank you, Director Gabert, thank you so much for your service.

440
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:09,080
Speaker 19: It was great to serve with you in Congress as well,

441
00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:11,919
Speaker 19: and works on so much and wonderful veterans issues. My

442
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:14,760
Speaker 19: son's also a Marine major, and so we appreciate the

443
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:18,160
Speaker 19: service of everybody here. Let's keep in mind, I obviously

444
00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:20,720
Speaker 19: we're in an open session. Do you have anything or

445
00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:26,600
Speaker 19: ongoing intelligence to suggest there's foreign support from governments, non

446
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:29,480
Speaker 19: government groups and individuals that have helped these pro haamas

447
00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:33,320
Speaker 19: demonstrations all across America, including on university campuses.

448
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:38,560
Speaker 3: Congresswomen, there are some assessments that reflect that, and we

449
00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:40,040
Speaker 3: can talk about that in the closed session.

450
00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:41,600
Speaker 19: Ra, thank you so much, and now I want to

451
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:45,320
Speaker 19: get back to cash Director. Great work on the northern border.

452
00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 19: I'm one of the co founders of the Northern Border

453
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:50,520
Speaker 19: Security Caucus, and your information has been tremendous once I

454
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:57,639
Speaker 19: got the district that I represent. Now, this sprawling long district,

455
00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:02,920
Speaker 19: entire northern border is is Canada, and as you say,

456
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:05,880
Speaker 19: three hundred and fifty eight suspects on the Terra watches,

457
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:08,439
Speaker 19: almost ninety percent of the suspects on the Tarra watches

458
00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:11,840
Speaker 19: are coming across our northern border. I'd love to talk

459
00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:15,040
Speaker 19: to you to what what is the FBI doing specifically

460
00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:19,040
Speaker 19: dealing with this northern border and what access point are you?

461
00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:20,919
Speaker 19: Who are you working whether we are there's there a

462
00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:23,359
Speaker 19: way that we have got a way to handle this

463
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:25,439
Speaker 19: with the foreign terror threats. And I say this in

464
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:28,880
Speaker 19: light of my districts specifically. We're New York State, led

465
00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:33,520
Speaker 19: by Democrats, by the way, is notorious for their unwillingness

466
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:37,359
Speaker 19: to work with you know, law enforcement. Under Governor Cuomo,

467
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:40,680
Speaker 19: we cut off the ability. I know Congressman quickly talked

468
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,440
Speaker 19: about working together after nine to eleven, the state hit

469
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:46,760
Speaker 19: hardest by nine to eleven, and Governor Cuomo put in

470
00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:49,679
Speaker 19: a law that prohibited law enforcement from working together. In

471
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:52,520
Speaker 19: twenty nineteen, what are we doing to so we can

472
00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:55,199
Speaker 19: work with New York the government and others to make

473
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:57,600
Speaker 19: sure that this doesn't happen across our New York northern border.

474
00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 4: Well one, and this is out of my lane, but

475
00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:02,240
Speaker 4: what we need to be doing is working with the

476
00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:05,320
Speaker 4: Canadian government because they sit on top of our northern border.

477
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:08,000
Speaker 4: We do have the problem of tyranny of distance and

478
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:11,040
Speaker 4: she here geography as compared to the southern border. But

479
00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:13,520
Speaker 4: when we were told that the Mexican government would not

480
00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:16,280
Speaker 4: work with us, we overcame that hurdle, and we've seen

481
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 4: the immediate results. As I highlighted to your colleague about

482
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:23,879
Speaker 4: northern border contacts with ksts versus a southern border. The

483
00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:27,520
Speaker 4: other thing we can be doing is working across every

484
00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:31,840
Speaker 4: northern border state who has a geographic border with Canada

485
00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:34,840
Speaker 4: and their local and state officially, which we are doing

486
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:37,879
Speaker 4: at the FBI, But it is such a vast enterprise

487
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:41,800
Speaker 4: that we would need a huge increase in resources to

488
00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:43,680
Speaker 4: cover down on that the way we do in Mexico.

489
00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:46,040
Speaker 19: In addition, thank you for that. In addition with working

490
00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:48,199
Speaker 19: with the Canadians, are you also working with the New

491
00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 19: York State government, because we do have a number of

492
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:54,960
Speaker 19: interesting assets, a sprawling Aquasascene Mohawk reservation that kind of

493
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:57,919
Speaker 19: goes across the northern border with New York and Canada.

494
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:00,679
Speaker 19: Are those types of things that you can work with

495
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:02,800
Speaker 19: the New York government and also in coordination with the

496
00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:03,840
Speaker 19: Canadian Oral Police.

497
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:07,160
Speaker 4: Absolutely, ma'am, And you highlight a great point. A lot

498
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:10,119
Speaker 4: of the northern border touches upon tribal lands, and we

499
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:13,720
Speaker 4: need to work with tribal leaders throughout the country as

500
00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:16,560
Speaker 4: effectively as we do with state and local governments and

501
00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:17,240
Speaker 4: at the FBI.

502
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:18,040
Speaker 5: We're doing just that.

503
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 19: Thank you so much, and I really appreciate all of

504
00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:22,000
Speaker 19: your service, and I yield my time back.

505
00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:26,640
Speaker 6: Gentleman yields gentlemen from Texas, Mister Fallons recognized.

506
00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:40,600
Speaker 21: Thank you, mister chairman. I appreciate it, Director Patel. Many

507
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:43,920
Speaker 21: of us have grown increasingly alarmed at the sheer number

508
00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:47,000
Speaker 21: of foreign nationals we're seeing caught spying on our critical

509
00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:51,240
Speaker 21: infrastructure or you know, near sensitive sites in the country.

510
00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:51,440
Speaker 18: You on.

511
00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:53,960
Speaker 21: One example is a Chinese national who's flying a drone,

512
00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:57,080
Speaker 21: allegedly flying a drone over VanderBurg and taking pictures of

513
00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:59,240
Speaker 21: the base. He was arrested in the San Francisco airport

514
00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:03,639
Speaker 21: not that long after, Director Tell, would you agree that

515
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:08,320
Speaker 21: the two most dangerous nation states to our homeland and

516
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:13,159
Speaker 21: our interests are China and Russia? Yes, Congressmen, So it

517
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:15,639
Speaker 21: would stand a reason that we should pay particular attention

518
00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 21: when four nationals from these two countries, who we've already

519
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:21,760
Speaker 21: established are the greatest threats to our country now in

520
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:25,720
Speaker 21: the future, when they try to sneak into our country illegally.

521
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:28,679
Speaker 5: Absolutely, sir, can you speak.

522
00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:31,159
Speaker 21: On the illegal migration we see from Russia and China

523
00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:33,960
Speaker 21: and the differences that we saw from the first Trump

524
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:36,600
Speaker 21: administration to the Biden administration.

525
00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:40,600
Speaker 4: Well, one the problem you have when you have an

526
00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:44,360
Speaker 4: effective resolution to that set of issues is that the

527
00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:48,840
Speaker 4: enemy adapts and what they've done is utilized. As we

528
00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:52,760
Speaker 4: were just discussing with your colleague, the northern border to

529
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,600
Speaker 4: shift their resources and affiliations to pour in known or

530
00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:59,800
Speaker 4: suspected terrors through the northern border. They haven't stopped through

531
00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:02,520
Speaker 4: the southern border. They just know that we are setting

532
00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:07,120
Speaker 4: up a pretty monumental effort down there to stop any

533
00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:09,679
Speaker 4: known or suspected terrorists from entering the country. But the

534
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 4: thing is the Chinese, the Russians, Iranians, and other adversaries

535
00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:16,600
Speaker 4: are utilizing their partners just like they are doing in

536
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:19,600
Speaker 4: terms of how they move elicit fentanyl precursors into this country.

537
00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:22,520
Speaker 4: They're moving humans in the same fashion, and we need

538
00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:23,480
Speaker 4: to treat it as such.

539
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:26,480
Speaker 21: Did you see an increase from the first Trump administration

540
00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:29,960
Speaker 21: to the Biden administration on Russian and Chinese nationals crossing

541
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:30,359
Speaker 21: the border?

542
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:31,640
Speaker 10: Did it increase or decrease?

543
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:32,240
Speaker 9: Yes?

544
00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:33,280
Speaker 5: Actually so.

545
00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:37,600
Speaker 4: The PRC nationals crossing the southern border from twenty two

546
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:39,919
Speaker 4: to twenty five was one hundred and seventy eight thousand,

547
00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:42,440
Speaker 4: and I don't have the number for the northern border,

548
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:43,439
Speaker 4: ser but I'll get that to you.

549
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:45,720
Speaker 21: So well, yeah, what we found was that there was

550
00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:49,920
Speaker 21: actually a market increase, alarming, with the Chinese illegal migration

551
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:53,040
Speaker 21: increasing five hundred and twenty seven percent all in and

552
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:57,080
Speaker 21: Russian twenty four hundred percent. And if just one tenth

553
00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:59,280
Speaker 21: of one percent, some fraction, some tiny fraction, one ten

554
00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:02,960
Speaker 21: to one percent are actually asset sleeper agents loyal to

555
00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:06,520
Speaker 21: Moscow or Beijing, they could wreak havoc in Mayhem in

556
00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:09,000
Speaker 21: a free and open society. It's very dangerous. And then

557
00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:11,359
Speaker 21: those are the ones we know about. What about the

558
00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:13,960
Speaker 21: ones that snuck across and we never found them, the

559
00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:16,720
Speaker 21: unknown god aways, if you will so, Director Portel. There's

560
00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:19,400
Speaker 21: also a great concern about the increasing number of counterintelligence

561
00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:22,639
Speaker 21: threats that are penetrating all levels and branches of government,

562
00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:26,520
Speaker 21: both local, state, and federal. The number of elected and

563
00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:30,840
Speaker 21: appointed officials willing to portray this country is becoming increasingly pervasive.

564
00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:33,879
Speaker 21: Last year, we saw a former senior aide in the

565
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:36,920
Speaker 21: New York Governor's office, Linda suit Son Rather, and her

566
00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:41,480
Speaker 21: husband Chris, who indicted on charges of money laundering and

567
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:43,800
Speaker 21: acting as foreign agents to the People's Republic of China.

568
00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:47,600
Speaker 21: MS Sun used her position to block Taiwanese representatives from

569
00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:51,200
Speaker 21: access to New York State officials, instead le rolling out

570
00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:54,760
Speaker 21: the red carpet for those PRC officials to have those meetings.

571
00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:56,280
Speaker 10: I mean, that's some scary stuff.

572
00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 21: So when we have someone like Sue Mee Terry who

573
00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:03,920
Speaker 21: also work overtly spying on Korea while working simultaneously with

574
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:08,280
Speaker 21: various think tanks, and she had been national security official,

575
00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:10,840
Speaker 21: and she'd worked for the CIA and the National Security Council.

576
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,440
Speaker 21: Because of her job, members of Congress and their staffs

577
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:16,560
Speaker 21: had access to these Korean intelligence officials, and she was

578
00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:19,440
Speaker 21: paid with, you know, shoot, thousands of dollars in luxury gifts.

579
00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:23,120
Speaker 21: But Director Portel, I get that these investigations are ongoing, insensitive,

580
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,080
Speaker 21: But to the extent that you can, could you please

581
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:31,880
Speaker 21: briefly highlight the security, the severity rather of these counterintelligence threats,

582
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:35,280
Speaker 21: including a rough estimate of the number of open counterintelligence

583
00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:36,600
Speaker 21: cases that are pending.

584
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:39,320
Speaker 4: We have many, and I'll get you the exact number,

585
00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:42,120
Speaker 4: serve and closed session. But what it highlights is that

586
00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:45,080
Speaker 4: the enemy is not relenting. They're actually doubling down and

587
00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,200
Speaker 4: tripling down on their efforts. And there's no sector in

588
00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:51,280
Speaker 4: government that they won't go to and try to infiltrate

589
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:54,800
Speaker 4: and penetrate access and turn people in this country against

590
00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:57,960
Speaker 4: our own nations. So that is a national security threat

591
00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:00,600
Speaker 4: of our time, as is the terrorism bread and as

592
00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:02,720
Speaker 4: is defentan al threat and needs to be treated as

593
00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 4: such equally, and at the FBI we're doing that.

594
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:07,200
Speaker 21: Thank you, and direct Preel, will you commit to providing

595
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:10,640
Speaker 21: this committee with classified briefing on the severity the FBI

596
00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:15,000
Speaker 21: processes and procedures, including defensive briefings related to counter intelligence

597
00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:18,280
Speaker 21: threats involving elected and or appointed officials.

598
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:21,520
Speaker 4: For defensive briefings, Congressman, I commit to you that the

599
00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:24,600
Speaker 4: FBI will give you everything we have in our holdings.

600
00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:26,320
Speaker 5: I can't comment on other.

601
00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:28,280
Speaker 21: People's thank you and miss Chairman, I want to thank

602
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:30,480
Speaker 21: all the witnesses for being here, particularly on mister John

603
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:31,960
Speaker 21: Ratcliffe Congressional.

604
00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:32,560
Speaker 10: District Force as well.

605
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:38,560
Speaker 6: I yelled back, gentlemen Yields, I just got notice that

606
00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:42,320
Speaker 6: the baseball shooting report discussed by the Vice Chairman Kelly

607
00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:45,480
Speaker 6: earlier today has been delivered to our skiff, and I

608
00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:48,920
Speaker 6: appreciate Director Purtel your responsiveness to that issue. Thank you

609
00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:54,040
Speaker 6: so much for your commitment and the appropriate transparency demonstrated

610
00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:54,320
Speaker 6: in that.

611
00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:55,680
Speaker 7: We appreciate that very much.

612
00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:59,000
Speaker 6: Since each member has an opportunity, has had an opportunity

613
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,160
Speaker 6: to question our witnesses, I will now close this portion

614
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:03,400
Speaker 6: of the hearing and we'll reconvene in closed session at

615
00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:06,120
Speaker 6: two pm in the hipsy spaces. I asked the public

616
00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:09,320
Speaker 6: and staff to please remain seated until our witnesses depart.

617
00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:10,880
Speaker 11: Thank you.

618
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:31,160
Speaker 15: All right, so that hearing is adjourned.

619
00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:33,920
Speaker 22: That was the Annual Threat Assessment hearing involving the House

620
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:38,080
Speaker 22: Intel Committee. Obviously lots of conversation happening there about the

621
00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:42,400
Speaker 22: signal debacle involving top administration officials. Will of course be

622
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:44,400
Speaker 22: continuing to cover all of this throughout the day. But

623
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:46,960
Speaker 22: for now, let's get you back to the Charlie Kirkshaw,

624
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:48,600
Speaker 22: which is already in progress.

625
00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:52,280
Speaker 23: This has been a live special report. We now join

626
00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:55,640
Speaker 23: our programming already in progress to human nature.

627
00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:58,760
Speaker 24: More importantly, they can show us that faith, family and

628
00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:01,760
Speaker 24: friends are ding for. Maybe you read these books a

629
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:04,600
Speaker 24: long time ago in school. Maybe you've heard others talk about.

630
00:32:04,400 --> 00:33:13,080
Speaker 20: Them things too.

631
00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:15,360
Speaker 3: I mean people have asked like, how do you do

632
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:15,960
Speaker 3: it when.

633
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:33,040
Speaker 25: One hundred percent American maid and darn proud of it.

634
00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:34,240
Speaker 9: The Charlie Kirk Show.

635
00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:36,560
Speaker 24: Okay, everybody, I want to tell you about Patriot Mobile.

636
00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:38,680
Speaker 24: Then we have Speaker Nut Gingrich with us, the great

637
00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:41,320

638
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:44,640
Speaker 24: the fight to restore America's only beginning as America's only

639
00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:47,720
Speaker 24: Christian conservative wireless provider, Patriot Mobile offers a way to

640
00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:51,280
Speaker 24: vote with your wallet without compromising on quality or convenience.

641
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:55,080
Speaker 24: Patriot Mobile isn't just about providing exceptional cell phone service.

642

Speaker 12: Joining us now is Speaker Knut Gingrich.

650
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:20,120
Speaker 24: Mister speaker, thank you for taking the time, mister speaker,

651
00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:23,680
Speaker 24: how are you processing and thinking about this signal story

652
00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:27,719
Speaker 24: and the strange and bizarre development that the editor in

653
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:31,120
Speaker 24: chief of the Atlantic found himself in a private military

654
00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:31,640
Speaker 24: group chat.

655
00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:35,120
Speaker 26: Mister speaker, Well, I mean, I think there are two

656
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:38,600
Speaker 26: different parts of that. One is you said it just right.

657
00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:42,359
Speaker 26: The strange and bizarre fact that of all the people

658
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:44,440
Speaker 26: who might have ended up in there, one of the

659
00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:49,080
Speaker 26: most anti Trump journalists from an anti Trump magazine happened

660
00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:51,520
Speaker 26: to be the guy there. I think that's so weird

661
00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:53,280
Speaker 26: you wouldn't have put it into a novel.

662
00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:55,680
Speaker 11: The other fact is.

663
00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:00,440
Speaker 26: They probably shouldn't have those kind of discussions on signal.

664
00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:07,719
Speaker 26: When I was Speaker, we routinely use the most powerful

665
00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:11,480
Speaker 26: security systems. We had somebody who would come to me

666
00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:15,560
Speaker 26: wherever I was carrying a secure phone so I could

667
00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:18,680
Speaker 26: talk to the President on a line that the Chinese

668
00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:21,839
Speaker 26: and the Russians couldn't possibly hack. So at one level,

669
00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:24,920
Speaker 26: I would say there's an underlying lesson here that's important,

670
00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:27,560
Speaker 26: and that is that they need to tighten up their

671
00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:32,400
Speaker 26: own security provisions just in general, not because of the

672
00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:35,320
Speaker 26: Atlantic Monthly, but because of the Chinese and the Russians

673
00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:37,520
Speaker 26: and the North Koreans. All of them are very good

674
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:41,360
Speaker 26: at hacking into things. The other is My advice to

675
00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:44,200
Speaker 26: them is get on, just get it over with. This

676
00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:46,880
Speaker 26: is not an issue that helps Donald Trump at all

677
00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:50,239
Speaker 26: to sit around and wallow in it. A mistake was made.

678
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:53,719
Speaker 26: We don't fully know why the mistake was made. The

679
00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:56,440
Speaker 26: best thing they can say is we're looking into it,

680
00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:59,400
Speaker 26: and when we understand it, we'll report to you. But

681
00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:02,000
Speaker 26: until then we have nothing more to say, and just

682
00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:05,920
Speaker 26: move on with the what the left loves. You know,

683
00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:09,000
Speaker 26: they've found something where they can. They can pick at

684
00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:11,719
Speaker 26: the Trump team and pick at the Trump team, and

685
00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:14,400
Speaker 26: every and people will have different answers because they have

686
00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:18,120
Speaker 26: different memories, they come from different places, and then each

687
00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:21,600
Speaker 26: contradiction will become its own story. And the left wild

688
00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:25,440
Speaker 26: like to do nothing more then hide from the underlying

689
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:29,440
Speaker 26: realities of what Trump is doing to fundamentally get America

690
00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:32,040
Speaker 26: back on track. And if they can find some story,

691
00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:35,960
Speaker 26: any story that lets them avoid covering the successful things,

692
00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:38,120
Speaker 26: they're going to go there. So the best thing that

693
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:40,840
Speaker 26: the Trump team can do, in my judgment, is just

694
00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:44,319
Speaker 26: shut up, say we understand it was a mistake. It

695
00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:48,840
Speaker 26: clearly was a mistake. We have an investigation underway, and

696
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:51,239
Speaker 26: when we know enough, we will report to you. But

697
00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:52,879
Speaker 26: until then we have nothing more to say.

698
00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:54,239
Speaker 10: They just move on.

699
00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:56,879
Speaker 12: Yeah, I tend to agree with that.

700
00:36:57,400 --> 00:36:59,279
Speaker 24: I do think that that privately, there needs to be

701
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:03,000
Speaker 24: some understanding of how he ended up in this group

702
00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:04,680
Speaker 24: chat either.

703
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:06,640
Speaker 11: I mean, it should be a real investigation.

704
00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:12,279
Speaker 26: Yes, okay, they should design somebody competent with whatever team

705
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:15,800
Speaker 26: they need to find out one why were they using signal?

706
00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:18,520
Speaker 11: Two who put the chat together?

707
00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:19,400
Speaker 9: Three?

708
00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:21,920
Speaker 26: How did this particular person end up in the chat?

709
00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:24,800
Speaker 26: And four why did they have a procedure which didn't

710
00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:27,040
Speaker 26: surface this person the minute they were on the chat?

711
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:29,640
Speaker 11: All those things need to be done.

712
00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:33,640
Speaker 26: But I think that that's clearly important for the country

713
00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:35,800
Speaker 26: and for the next three and a half years of

714
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:38,719
Speaker 26: the Trump administration. But there's no point in trying to

715
00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:41,360
Speaker 26: do that out in public until you know something.

716
00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:44,360
Speaker 11: And frankly, it should be real, it should be serious.

717
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:47,839
Speaker 11: You know, they shouldn't just cover it up.

718
00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:51,640
Speaker 26: They should methodically, seriously understand what happened, share with the

719
00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:54,040
Speaker 26: American people what they're going to do to fix it

720
00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:55,839
Speaker 26: in the future, and move on.

721
00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:59,200
Speaker 11: But wallowing in it and get involved in who said

722
00:37:59,200 --> 00:37:59,520
Speaker 11: what to?

723
00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:00,480
Speaker 18: Who you know?

724
00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:02,799
Speaker 26: And did you really put it on as your stafferson

725
00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:05,560
Speaker 26: put it on? How did they get there? That kind

726
00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:08,480
Speaker 26: of stuff the media loves, gives them something to talk

727
00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:12,080
Speaker 26: about that doesn't help Trump. But yeah, first of all,

728
00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 26: the average American will get tired of it pretty quickly.

729
00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:18,400
Speaker 26: And I think the things that Trump is doing and

730
00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:20,680
Speaker 26: the things that the House and Center Republicans are doing

731
00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:24,359
Speaker 26: are so big, so historic, that we want to get

732
00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:25,680
Speaker 26: back to communicating those.

733
00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:31,040
Speaker 24: So I completely agree. And this is probably the first

734
00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:34,840
Speaker 24: hiccup or glitch of what has been a flawless two months.

735
00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:37,480
Speaker 11: That's right, speak.

736
00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:39,920
Speaker 24: About that, because the president is best on offense, not

737
00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:43,799
Speaker 24: taking the terms of the media right.

738
00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:47,200
Speaker 26: And Trump understands this instinctively. That's why I said it

739
00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:49,320
Speaker 26: was a glitch and he was going back on offense.

740
00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:52,680
Speaker 26: And then unfortunately several of his team went up and

741
00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:55,680
Speaker 26: testified in the Hill and didn't quite have their act together.

742
00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:59,000
Speaker 26: And I think that's where you want to have a

743
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:02,480
Speaker 26: single sentence or two sentence answered that basically explains why

744
00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:05,319
Speaker 26: you're not explaining until you know what you're going to say,

745
00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:09,839
Speaker 26: which they clearly don't currently know. But I mean Trump

746
00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:13,399
Speaker 26: has had an astonishing run. From everything we're seeing right now,

747
00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:18,319
Speaker 26: he's likely to continue to have an astonishing run. And

748
00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:20,160
Speaker 26: you look just at what they've done on the border.

749
00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:24,080
Speaker 26: I mean, in my wildest days, I would never have

750
00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:27,520
Speaker 26: thought you could control the border that quickly. And it

751
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:32,440
Speaker 26: was just literally overnight, everything Biden had done collapsed. People

752
00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:34,920
Speaker 26: around the world figured out they're not going to get in.

753
00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:40,920
Speaker 26: Legal immigration has literally collapsed. The amount of investments being

754
00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:45,000
Speaker 26: announced in the United States are breathtaking, So you have

755
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:49,160
Speaker 26: a lot of good things happening, and frankly, the fight

756
00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:52,840
Speaker 26: over the shape and structure of the federal bureaucracy is

757
00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:54,839
Speaker 26: a fight that people know we have to have.

758
00:39:56,320 --> 00:39:57,360
Speaker 11: In our project that.

759
00:39:57,360 --> 00:40:00,520
Speaker 26: You know about Charlie the America's New Majority Project, our

760
00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:04,160
Speaker 26: polling last month indicated that eighty two percent of the

761
00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:07,840
Speaker 26: country think that Washington is corrupt and they think that

762
00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:09,400
Speaker 26: it makes it harder to solve.

763
00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:10,360
Speaker 11: Things because it's corrupt.

764
00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:13,200
Speaker 26: So if the president will go out there and be

765
00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:17,960
Speaker 26: the advocate of honest, clearer reform, and if that's the

766
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:22,120
Speaker 26: basic theme that Elon Musk and Dose take, they're going

767
00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:25,759
Speaker 26: to have huge popular support for fixing this thing. And

768
00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:29,400
Speaker 26: people are going to accept that there's gonna be some turmoil,

769
00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:32,000
Speaker 26: there's gonna be some confusion, but that unbalanced.

770
00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:33,400
Speaker 11: It's really a good thing.

771
00:40:34,239 --> 00:40:36,759
Speaker 12: And there is widespread popular support. I want to play

772
00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:37,440
Speaker 12: piece of tape here.

773
00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:40,200
Speaker 24: We've played this prior in the week of Ezra Klein

774
00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:43,120
Speaker 24: sitting down with David Shore from The New York Times.

775
00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:47,120
Speaker 24: Ezra Klein is like the chief explainer of data for

776
00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:50,120
Speaker 24: the left, the smart guy, but terribly wrong on the issues.

777
00:40:50,880 --> 00:40:53,480
Speaker 24: And he's trying to understand how is it? And this

778
00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:55,160
Speaker 24: is I would love to get your take on this.

779
00:40:55,760 --> 00:41:00,359
Speaker 24: White men over seventy five actually supported Kamala Harri at

780
00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:03,479
Speaker 24: a significantly higher rate than white men who are twenty

781
00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:06,960
Speaker 24: years old. This is a generational realignment that we're living through.

782
00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:08,279
Speaker 24: Let's play cut seventy five.

783
00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:08,600
Speaker 9: Please.

784
00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:11,359
Speaker 27: One of the things you can see here is if

785
00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:13,839
Speaker 27: you just look at eighteen year olds, eighteen year old

786
00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:15,799
Speaker 27: women of color are the only of the four that

787
00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:21,040
Speaker 27: actually voted the Harris one. Trump narrowly won, you know,

788
00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:24,160
Speaker 27: non white men. So I do find this part of

789
00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:25,800
Speaker 27: this chart shocking.

790
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:29,160
Speaker 28: I sometimes talk about narrative violations, and I think if

791
00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:32,359
Speaker 28: we knew anything about Donald Trump eight years ago, it's

792
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:34,400
Speaker 28: at young people did not like him. But if you

793
00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:37,960
Speaker 28: look at this chart, among white men who were seventy

794
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:44,000
Speaker 28: five years old supported Kamala Harris at a significantly higher

795
00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:46,320
Speaker 28: rate than white men who are twenty years.

796
00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:50,000
Speaker 12: Old, That's exactly right. That's a real shift.

797
00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:51,200
Speaker 11: It is a real shift.

798
00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:53,200
Speaker 27: This is the thing I am the most shocked by,

799
00:41:53,360 --> 00:41:55,839
Speaker 27: I think in the last four years is that young

800
00:41:55,880 --> 00:42:01,000
Speaker 27: people have gone from being the most progressive generation since

801
00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:03,680
Speaker 27: the Baby Boomers, and maybe in some ways more so,

802
00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:06,600
Speaker 27: to becoming potentially the most conservative.

803
00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:11,000
Speaker 12: What is going on, mister speaker, Well, I mean.

804
00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:12,240
Speaker 11: First of all, the left failed.

805
00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:15,480
Speaker 26: You know, you're a young person, You're out there, You're

806
00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:19,359
Speaker 26: thinking what can I do? Can I afford to buy

807
00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:22,239
Speaker 26: a car? Can I afford to buy a house? Can

808
00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:24,680
Speaker 26: I find a job? Do I think the future is

809
00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:27,800
Speaker 26: going to get better? And under Biden and Harris, every

810
00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:30,600
Speaker 26: signal to young people was that their lives are going

811
00:42:30,640 --> 00:42:34,880
Speaker 26: to be poorer, more miserable, with fewer choices than their parents.

812
00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:38,440
Speaker 26: And so at one level of saying, this isn't working. Second,

813
00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:40,960
Speaker 26: I think that there's a common sense when you get

814
00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:44,200
Speaker 26: into some of the weirder issues that should men compete

815
00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:46,760
Speaker 26: in women's sports, for example. I think there's a common

816
00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:50,520
Speaker 26: sense view among younger Americans that this is just stupid.

817
00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:55,120
Speaker 26: Why would you, in fact, even think that this makes

818
00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:59,520
Speaker 26: any sense, And so they haven't been brainwashed enough to

819
00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:03,239
Speaker 26: believe in things that aren't believable. And they're faced with

820
00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:07,680
Speaker 26: a Bernie Sanders, AOC Democratic Party which is still moving

821
00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:11,920
Speaker 26: to the left despite all the election evidence and everything

822
00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:14,680
Speaker 26: else we've seen. And I think that that means that

823
00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:17,400
Speaker 26: younger people plus I think younger people have a deeper

824
00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:20,759
Speaker 26: sense of how really corrupt and out of touch the

825
00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:23,880
Speaker 26: government is and that it really needs profound change.

826
00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:29,080
Speaker 24: And where the Democrat Party does not seem to want

827
00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:33,400
Speaker 24: to moderate themselves, they seem to want to double and

828
00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:39,239
Speaker 24: even triple down on their wildly unpopular views. I mean,

829
00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:41,800
Speaker 24: Jasmine Crockett, yeah, please go ahead.

830
00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:45,520
Speaker 26: I's just say I actually think there are two wings

831
00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:48,160
Speaker 26: of the Democratic Party, and I think you're likely to

832
00:43:48,200 --> 00:43:51,640
Speaker 26: see the beginning of sort of a civil war between

833
00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:54,520
Speaker 26: those two wings. If you watch what happened with Schumer,

834
00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:59,240
Speaker 26: the Senate Democratic leader. He finally decided, as a practical matter,

835
00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:02,000
Speaker 26: he didn't believe the Democrats ought to be the party

836
00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:05,240
Speaker 26: of the closed government. So from the standpoint of the left,

837
00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:09,239
Speaker 26: he sold out. Now he took about ten senators with him,

838
00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:14,719
Speaker 26: and they're now facing really angry crowds back home. And

839
00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:17,439
Speaker 26: so what you have is the people who are trying

840
00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:21,680
Speaker 26: to accommodate reality are being isolated from If you look

841
00:44:21,719 --> 00:44:26,200
Speaker 26: at the AOC Bernie Sanders road show, they're getting huge crowds.

842
00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:31,080
Speaker 26: So the intensity of the hard left, which is doubling

843
00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:34,920
Speaker 26: and tripling down, is growing, while the people in the middle,

844
00:44:34,920 --> 00:44:38,080
Speaker 26: who know that this is not going to work, are

845
00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:43,279
Speaker 26: finding themselves squeezed by the reality that the energy and

846
00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:45,799
Speaker 26: the money and the drive and the Democratic Party is

847
00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:48,200
Speaker 26: all on the hard left, and that if you try

848
00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:51,319
Speaker 26: to be rational and moderate, he's almost certainly going to

849
00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:55,000
Speaker 26: risk a primary campaign and may well get defeated in

850
00:44:55,080 --> 00:44:58,840
Speaker 26: the primary because you'll be seen as a sellout. Exactly

851
00:44:58,880 --> 00:45:01,759
Speaker 26: what happened to the Republican under Franklin Roosevelt in the

852
00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:04,920
Speaker 26: nineteen thirties, and that's part of why the New Deal

853
00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:09,400
Speaker 26: became the dominant coalition for ninety years, because the Republicans

854
00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:12,440
Speaker 26: just shattered and couldn't figure out what to do. And

855
00:45:12,480 --> 00:45:16,520
Speaker 26: Trump has done everything right to be a coalition builder

856
00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:20,799
Speaker 26: in the tradition of Jefferson and Lincoln and Roosevelt. And

857
00:45:21,560 --> 00:45:25,880
Speaker 26: he continues to both deliver things people want and to

858
00:45:25,960 --> 00:45:28,640
Speaker 26: define his opponents and to set up the kind of

859
00:45:28,640 --> 00:45:32,120
Speaker 26: fights where his opponents rush in to just be mildly crazy.

860
00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:34,400
Speaker 26: And he started to mention the woman who I hope

861
00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:38,400
Speaker 26: they're going to censure this week because as a congressman

862
00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:39,360
Speaker 26: she has said things.

863
00:45:39,800 --> 00:45:42,440
Speaker 12: Jasmine Davy Crockett. Yep, that's right, Oh, it happened.

864
00:45:42,600 --> 00:45:45,560
Speaker 11: The things she's been saying are so vicious.

865
00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:48,040
Speaker 26: And we do have this problem right now that you

866
00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:51,799
Speaker 26: have a very substantial militant group on the left who

867
00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:57,640
Speaker 26: are willing to burn cars, firebomb dealerships, talk about getting

868
00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:01,600
Speaker 26: Elon Musk, talk about other kind of things involve violence.

869
00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:02,879
Speaker 11: I mean, the.

870
00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:05,640
Speaker 26: Real threat to violence in America right now is from

871
00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:07,840
Speaker 26: a bitter left wing extremist.

872
00:46:08,239 --> 00:46:11,240
Speaker 11: You just can't hope with what's happening.

873
00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:11,920
Speaker 12: Mister speaker.

874
00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:13,799
Speaker 24: I'd love to keep you for another segment if we can,

875
00:46:13,880 --> 00:46:18,080
Speaker 24: If you have another couple of minutes, great you of course, well,

876
00:46:18,120 --> 00:46:21,480
Speaker 24: thank you, mister speaker. Greatly appreciated. Our audience loves you.

877
00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:23,399
Speaker 24: We all know how challenging it can be to get

878
00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:25,960
Speaker 24: the quality sleep we need, whether it's falling asleep or

879
00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:26,760
Speaker 24: staying asleep.

880
00:46:26,920 --> 00:46:29,080

Speaker 12: zas that you need.

Speaker 25: Everybody, you're listening to the future of America, and the

896
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:26,200
Speaker 25: future is bright.

897
00:47:26,480 --> 00:47:27,880
Speaker 9: Here is Charlie Kirk.

898
00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:31,200
Speaker 24: Okay, everybody, mister speaker, we have about a minute and

899
00:47:31,280 --> 00:47:33,960
Speaker 24: just the segment. Please plug your upcoming projects of the

900
00:47:33,960 --> 00:47:35,520
Speaker 24: way that our audience can support you.

901
00:47:35,560 --> 00:47:36,879
Speaker 11: Please well listen.

902
00:47:36,880 --> 00:47:40,240
Speaker 26: The biggest project we've got is the America's new Majority Project,

903
00:47:40,280 --> 00:47:42,880
Speaker 26: which they can see at that title. And then I

904
00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:46,080
Speaker 26: have a new book coming out this summer called Trump's Triumph,

905
00:47:46,440 --> 00:47:49,160
Speaker 26: which lays out both Howie won but also what it

906
00:47:49,200 --> 00:47:51,600
Speaker 26: means for the future of America and the great things

907
00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:52,440
Speaker 26: we can accomplish.

908
00:47:52,440 --> 00:47:54,840
Speaker 11: And as all as Charlie, it's great to be with you.

909
00:47:54,360 --> 00:47:57,799
Speaker 26: You were a major factor in the victory last year,

910
00:47:58,040 --> 00:47:59,759
Speaker 26: and you're going to be a major factor in winning

911
00:47:59,800 --> 00:48:02,320
Speaker 26: this cultural fight over the future of America.

912
00:48:02,800 --> 00:48:06,359
Speaker 12: Well, thank you. I deeply appreciate that, and we appreciate it.

913
00:48:06,840 --> 00:48:09,160
Speaker 24: And that is the most important thing we're focusing on,

914
00:48:09,280 --> 00:48:11,719
Speaker 24: is the cultural fight. We've seen a movement with young

915
00:48:11,760 --> 00:48:15,800
Speaker 24: people and if we can give some permanency to that, boy,

916
00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:19,120
Speaker 24: things are not going to be very hopeful for the

917
00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:19,839
Speaker 24: Democrat Party.

918
00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:23,879
Speaker 12: It would change America everything that's right. It would change

919
00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:24,200
Speaker 12: it fun.

920
00:48:24,280 --> 00:48:26,080
Speaker 11: Change America, and then that'll change the world.

921
00:48:27,120 --> 00:48:30,279
Speaker 24: That's right, and we would not do a fundamental transformation.

922
00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:32,360
Speaker 24: We'd get us back to our roots to not to

923
00:48:32,920 --> 00:48:57,400
Speaker 24: not the Obama transmission. Stay right there, We'll be right back. Okay, everybody,

924
00:48:57,440 --> 00:48:59,560
Speaker 24: welcome back. Email us Freedom at Charliekirk dot com. So,

925
00:48:59,600 --> 00:49:02,719
Speaker 24: mister or I don't have the tape handy, but I

926
00:49:02,760 --> 00:49:05,800
Speaker 24: will do my best to paraphrase it. President Trump actually

927
00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:10,759
Speaker 24: won immigrants. That's right, immigrant voters in the battleground state,

928
00:49:10,880 --> 00:49:14,279
Speaker 24: something that completely blows the mind of Democrat strategists.

929
00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:18,080
Speaker 12: How do you explain that.

930
00:49:17,040 --> 00:49:19,920
Speaker 24: That Donald Trump, who's been positioned as anti immigrant and

931
00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:23,200
Speaker 24: xenophobic and all that won the immigrant vote in the

932
00:49:23,239 --> 00:49:24,320
Speaker 24: seven battleground states.

933
00:49:24,360 --> 00:49:26,960
Speaker 26: Mister speaker, Well, you know close than I did a

934
00:49:27,440 --> 00:49:31,359
Speaker 26: documentary that was on PBS called Journey to America, and

935
00:49:31,400 --> 00:49:35,360
Speaker 26: we took nine people who came here legally and who made.

936
00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:36,560
Speaker 11: America a better country.

937
00:49:36,760 --> 00:49:38,319
Speaker 26: Because you want to make the point that, well, we're

938
00:49:38,320 --> 00:49:42,800
Speaker 26: against illegal immigration, that legal immigration often makes America stronger.

939
00:49:43,360 --> 00:49:46,440
Speaker 26: I think everybody I talked to who's a legal immigrant

940
00:49:46,719 --> 00:49:50,040
Speaker 26: is really angry at the idea that people just playing

941
00:49:50,080 --> 00:49:52,560
Speaker 26: broke the law. That's right, they didn't wait in line,

942
00:49:52,600 --> 00:49:55,440
Speaker 26: they didn't obey the rules. They are, in effect, in

943
00:49:55,480 --> 00:49:59,880
Speaker 26: their minds illegitimate, and they don't want that rewarded. Furthermore,

944
00:50:00,239 --> 00:50:02,520
Speaker 26: a lot of people who came here from countries that

945
00:50:02,600 --> 00:50:07,399
Speaker 26: have dangerous gangs like Venezuela and El Salvador really don't

946
00:50:07,400 --> 00:50:09,880
Speaker 26: want the gangs here. That's part of why they were

947
00:50:09,920 --> 00:50:13,640
Speaker 26: attracted to America. So I think the left has always

948
00:50:13,680 --> 00:50:18,840
Speaker 26: misunderstood the nature of legal immigration in America and the

949
00:50:18,880 --> 00:50:22,160
Speaker 26: fact that, for example, when you deal with most Latinos,

950
00:50:22,360 --> 00:50:25,080
Speaker 26: you're dealing with people who are very often devoted Christians

951
00:50:25,200 --> 00:50:30,760
Speaker 26: or Catholics or Pentecostals or Fundamentals, but very Christian, believe

952
00:50:30,800 --> 00:50:32,080
Speaker 26: in very traditional values.

953
00:50:32,400 --> 00:50:34,520
Speaker 11: You go talk to them about.

954
00:50:34,160 --> 00:50:37,960
Speaker 26: Having boys engaged in girls' sports, they think you're just nuts.

955
00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:41,600
Speaker 26: You go talk to them about the importance of welfare,

956
00:50:41,760 --> 00:50:45,200
Speaker 26: they think you're crazy. They think people should work. And

957
00:50:45,239 --> 00:50:47,600
Speaker 26: we've done a ton of polling at the America's New

958
00:50:47,600 --> 00:50:50,880
Speaker 26: Majority Project, and every time we poll it, people believe

959
00:50:51,160 --> 00:50:53,640
Speaker 26: that everybody who gets money for the federal government should work,

960
00:50:54,440 --> 00:50:57,919
Speaker 26: and that unless you have a severe disability. And they

961
00:50:57,960 --> 00:51:00,959
Speaker 26: believe that people who are able by and take money

962
00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:05,879
Speaker 26: without working or committing fraud. So nobody on the left

963
00:51:05,960 --> 00:51:10,680
Speaker 26: understands these things. That's why Trump going to McDonald's was

964
00:51:10,719 --> 00:51:14,600
Speaker 26: an active genius, because eighty seven percent of Americans go

965
00:51:14,640 --> 00:51:19,239
Speaker 26: to McDonald's every year. Forty million people have worked at McDonald's,

966
00:51:19,239 --> 00:51:22,200
Speaker 26: including Jeff Bezos and on the left of course, they

967
00:51:22,280 --> 00:51:24,320
Speaker 26: used to say, you don't want to take some hamburger

968
00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:27,520
Speaker 26: flipping job. And according on the left, they don't serve

969
00:51:27,560 --> 00:51:31,399
Speaker 26: shabli at McDonald's, they don't serve French food. So it's

970
00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:35,319
Speaker 26: a hard experience. So Trump understood where the American people were.

971
00:51:35,680 --> 00:51:38,040
Speaker 26: Nobody on the hard left has a clue where the

972
00:51:38,080 --> 00:51:40,720
Speaker 26: American people are, and they have kind of an elite

973
00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:44,319
Speaker 26: snobbishness that just puts them totally out of sync with

974
00:51:44,360 --> 00:51:45,200
Speaker 26: the American people.

975
00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:49,400
Speaker 24: If you were to develop a battle plan for the

976
00:51:49,440 --> 00:51:53,480
Speaker 24: Republican caucus for this midterm election, what would that be?

977
00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:54,840
Speaker 12: Midterms are goofy.

978
00:51:55,480 --> 00:51:57,960
Speaker 24: You've had a lot of success in midterm cycles before.

979
00:51:58,920 --> 00:52:03,200
Speaker 24: How would you develop the messaging and the strategy coming

980
00:52:03,200 --> 00:52:04,280
Speaker 24: into twenty twenty six?

981
00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:08,680
Speaker 26: I would say three things. One, work as a team.

982
00:52:09,160 --> 00:52:11,760
Speaker 26: You're now the governing parties. You have to work together.

983
00:52:12,120 --> 00:52:14,520
Speaker 26: You have to find good reasons to vote yes. When

984
00:52:14,560 --> 00:52:17,680
Speaker 26: you're the opposition party, you find good reasons to vote no. Well,

985
00:52:17,680 --> 00:52:19,520
Speaker 26: that ain't year role now. Your role is to be

986
00:52:19,560 --> 00:52:22,640
Speaker 26: a team to work us Number one. Number two, you

987
00:52:22,760 --> 00:52:27,760
Speaker 26: have to pass the tax cut bill and the deregulation bill,

988
00:52:28,680 --> 00:52:32,600
Speaker 26: ideally by May, no later than mid June, because it

989
00:52:32,640 --> 00:52:35,520
Speaker 26: has to be an effect in time for the economy

990
00:52:35,560 --> 00:52:38,640
Speaker 26: next year to be taking off and for people to say,

991
00:52:38,680 --> 00:52:41,520
Speaker 26: you know, Trump's delivered, I feel better, I have more

992
00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:42,400
Speaker 26: money in my pocket.

993
00:52:42,640 --> 00:52:43,560
Speaker 11: I want to keep it going.

994
00:52:43,640 --> 00:52:46,759
Speaker 26: And three, I think the key issue next year is

995
00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:49,240
Speaker 26: going to be a very simple question, is it working.

996
00:52:49,880 --> 00:52:52,560
Speaker 26: If they decide it is working, and certainly we have

997
00:52:52,680 --> 00:52:55,319
Speaker 26: right now one of the highest right track numbers on

998
00:52:55,400 --> 00:52:58,680
Speaker 26: polling that we've seen in decades, if they decide this

999
00:52:58,719 --> 00:53:01,480
Speaker 26: is all working, are going to re elect the Republicans.

1000
00:53:01,680 --> 00:53:04,719
Speaker 26: The Democrats are going to shrink to being a tiny minority,

1001
00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:07,359
Speaker 26: and we have a real chance, I think, to make

1002
00:53:07,400 --> 00:53:10,640
Speaker 26: America great again and to create that Golden age that

1003
00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:11,680
Speaker 26: Trump has talked about.

1004
00:53:12,320 --> 00:53:14,480
Speaker 24: Very well, said mister speaker. Thank you, and just remind

1005

1011
00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:28,319
Speaker 12: Thank you.

1012
00:53:28,239 --> 00:53:30,520
Speaker 15: You would okay.

1013
00:53:30,239 --> 00:53:32,680

1014
00:53:32,719 --> 00:53:36,319
Speaker 24: will be going to Pastor Jack Kibbs Church Calvary Chapo Chapel.

1015
00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:36,640
Speaker 12: Chino Hills.

1016
00:53:36,880 --> 00:53:41,080
Speaker 24: I'll also be joining the Jordan Peterson podcast today for

1017
00:53:41,200 --> 00:53:44,080
Speaker 24: a couple of hours, so that is a great honor.

1018
00:53:44,480 --> 00:53:48,919
Speaker 24: In addition, next week we'll be going to Stillwater, Oklahoma

1019
00:53:49,520 --> 00:53:52,480
Speaker 24: at Oklahoma State University. That's a fun little curveball. We

1020
00:53:52,520 --> 00:53:55,360
Speaker 24: had a different campus cancel on us, so we decided

1021
00:53:55,400 --> 00:53:58,160
Speaker 24: to kind of go to home country. It's act my

1022
00:53:58,360 --> 00:54:02,400
Speaker 24: first outdoor campus event. It's actually my first ever campus

1023
00:54:02,400 --> 00:54:05,640
Speaker 24: event in the state of Oklahoma. I think we're gonna

1024
00:54:05,640 --> 00:54:07,960
Speaker 24: have a big, big crowd and Stillwater I'm told those

1025
00:54:07,960 --> 00:54:10,640
Speaker 24: are some good folks out there. Email us Freedom at

1026

1027
00:54:14,040 --> 00:54:17,279
Speaker 24: we have Sean Spicer and Connor Baylock. I'm gonna play

1028
00:54:17,320 --> 00:54:21,839
Speaker 24: around with this idea a little bit further with signal compromised.

1029
00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:25,560
Speaker 24: Is this potentially an Intel operation? I still give that

1030
00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:28,640
Speaker 24: a low probability, but I'm not dismissing it entirely.

1031
00:54:28,719 --> 00:54:29,799
Speaker 12: Second hour coming up.

1032
00:54:48,400 --> 00:54:50,839
Speaker 22: Welcome back to this Real America's Voice news break. I'm

1033
00:54:50,960 --> 00:54:54,960
Speaker 22: Terrence Bates. We've recently talked a lot about Home title theft.

1034
00:54:55,000 --> 00:54:58,000
Speaker 22: In short, thieves are pretty much stealing people's homes from

1035
00:54:58,080 --> 00:55:01,200
Speaker 22: right underneath them. In many case, the victims don't even

1036
00:55:01,200 --> 00:55:04,440
Speaker 22: know their home or their title information has been compromised

1037
00:55:04,520 --> 00:55:07,640
Speaker 22: until it's way too late. Well, this morning, we're helping

1038
00:55:07,680 --> 00:55:11,800
Speaker 22: you protect yourself. Investigative journalist John Summer joins me now

1039
00:55:11,960 --> 00:55:13,680
Speaker 22: to introduce you to Home Title Lot.

1040
00:55:13,760 --> 00:55:15,719
Speaker 15: John. Always good to see you, good morning.

1041
00:55:16,280 --> 00:55:18,880
Speaker 9: Great to see you again, Terrence, too good to see you.

1042
00:55:19,680 --> 00:55:22,680
Speaker 22: Before we get into home title Lot, let's talk about

1043
00:55:22,719 --> 00:55:26,160
Speaker 22: this disturbing trend of home title theft because it's something

1044
00:55:26,200 --> 00:55:30,000
Speaker 22: that's so insidious, and it happens without someone even being

1045
00:55:30,120 --> 00:55:32,640
Speaker 22: on site to steal something. And as I mentioned in

1046
00:55:32,680 --> 00:55:35,319
Speaker 22: the intro, oftentimes you don't even know about it until

1047
00:55:35,320 --> 00:55:36,080
Speaker 22: it's way too late.

1048
00:55:37,360 --> 00:55:40,200
Speaker 9: You're exactly right, and let me give you an example.

1049
00:55:40,560 --> 00:55:45,440
Speaker 13: By the way, the term has varied from title theft

1050
00:55:45,800 --> 00:55:48,239
Speaker 13: two deep theft to the FBI used to call it

1051
00:55:48,280 --> 00:55:54,279
Speaker 13: home stealing. But my new favorite term is title pirates.

1052
00:55:54,960 --> 00:55:57,839
Speaker 13: And actually this was a term that was just used

1053
00:55:57,840 --> 00:56:02,200
Speaker 13: in an article of All Places House Beautiful magazine. So Terrence,

1054
00:56:02,280 --> 00:56:04,600
Speaker 13: now you know that it's kind of gone mainstream as

1055
00:56:04,600 --> 00:56:07,439
Speaker 13: far as being aware of this crime. But I love

1056
00:56:07,520 --> 00:56:10,719
Speaker 13: the term title pirates because it's very descriptive because the

1057
00:56:10,760 --> 00:56:14,120
Speaker 13: way that this works is the thief basically comes out

1058
00:56:14,160 --> 00:56:17,600
Speaker 13: of the fog. They steal it like marauders, and they

1059
00:56:17,640 --> 00:56:21,360
Speaker 13: steal the title to your home. They ransack it for

1060
00:56:21,440 --> 00:56:24,000
Speaker 13: its value, and then they go back into the fog,

1061
00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:26,880
Speaker 13: and you wake up and you will never know that

1062
00:56:26,920 --> 00:56:30,080
Speaker 13: you've been hit until way too late, when the loan

1063
00:56:30,120 --> 00:56:33,759
Speaker 13: company or whoever comes calling and says you haven't made

1064
00:56:33,840 --> 00:56:37,080
Speaker 13: payments on a loan that you never took out because

1065
00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:39,960
Speaker 13: you didn't know. The title to your property doesn't have

1066
00:56:39,960 --> 00:56:42,879
Speaker 13: to be a home. It could be a piece of land.

1067
00:56:42,920 --> 00:56:45,560
Speaker 13: It could be an airbnb, a cabin in the woods.

1068
00:56:46,200 --> 00:56:50,160
Speaker 13: Anything that has a title number attached to it can

1069
00:56:50,200 --> 00:56:54,600
Speaker 13: be stolen and then leveraged for the equity or the

1070
00:56:54,680 --> 00:56:56,279
Speaker 13: value in that property.

1071
00:56:57,000 --> 00:56:59,880
Speaker 22: So, say someone is victimized in this sort of way,

1072
00:57:00,760 --> 00:57:05,920
Speaker 22: what kind of recompens do they have? How do they

1073
00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:08,120
Speaker 22: go about, first of all, getting their name and getting

1074
00:57:08,120 --> 00:57:11,960
Speaker 22: their title back, but then beyond that, potentially prosecuting the

1075
00:57:11,960 --> 00:57:14,800
Speaker 22: person that's responsible for the theft in the first place.

1076
00:57:14,920 --> 00:57:17,160
Speaker 22: When I suspect it's probably fairly different to to find

1077
00:57:17,160 --> 00:57:18,240
Speaker 22: the person responsible.

1078
00:57:19,160 --> 00:57:23,160
Speaker 13: Yeah, that's the really tough part, Terrence, because you have

1079
00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:26,080
Speaker 13: to hire an attorney, you know how expensive that can be,

1080
00:57:26,440 --> 00:57:28,280
Speaker 13: and you have to go through the court system, and

1081
00:57:28,320 --> 00:57:31,720
Speaker 13: that can take months, if not years, to be able

1082
00:57:31,720 --> 00:57:34,280
Speaker 13: to rectify, to prove that you are the rightful owner

1083
00:57:34,760 --> 00:57:39,960
Speaker 13: to that home. And recently high profile law enforcement departments

1084
00:57:40,280 --> 00:57:42,200
Speaker 13: have actually recognized this as a.

1085
00:57:42,240 --> 00:57:44,880
Speaker 9: Crime because it's so stealth.

1086
00:57:44,920 --> 00:57:47,600
Speaker 13: I mean traditionally crimes where you get hit over the

1087
00:57:47,600 --> 00:57:49,680
Speaker 13: head and they steal your watch or break into your

1088
00:57:49,680 --> 00:57:53,360
Speaker 13: home or whatever. This is a very stealth crime. But

1089
00:57:53,400 --> 00:57:56,200
Speaker 13: it's one thing to call something a crime, terence, it's

1090
00:57:56,240 --> 00:57:58,040
Speaker 13: another to be able to catch the criminal.

1091
00:57:58,440 --> 00:58:01,040
Speaker 9: And usually when this crime occur, they're.

1092
00:58:00,960 --> 00:58:04,600
Speaker 13: Long gone and you find yourself holding the bag.

1093
00:58:05,840 --> 00:58:08,560
Speaker 22: Is there a move nationally or even in some states

1094
00:58:08,720 --> 00:58:12,320
Speaker 22: to help protect people from being victimized in this way,

1095
00:58:12,360 --> 00:58:15,680
Speaker 22: because at the foundation, at its roots, this is a

1096
00:58:15,760 --> 00:58:18,040
Speaker 22: crime that starts with a public.

1097
00:58:17,760 --> 00:58:19,960
Speaker 9: Record, Yes, exactly.

1098
00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:23,600
Speaker 13: And those public records are, as you say, very public

1099
00:58:23,680 --> 00:58:27,480
Speaker 13: because with the Internet and with artificial intelligence, you can

1100
00:58:27,520 --> 00:58:31,520
Speaker 13: find out anything about anybody right now. You can then

1101
00:58:31,720 --> 00:58:35,360
Speaker 13: duplicate the proper documents to fake that you are that

1102
00:58:35,440 --> 00:58:39,640
Speaker 13: person and then transfer the title or take it. More

1103
00:58:39,680 --> 00:58:41,880
Speaker 13: than likely people aren't going to sell the property. They

1104
00:58:41,920 --> 00:58:44,800
Speaker 13: don't want the house. What they want is the value, Terrence.

1105
00:58:45,120 --> 00:58:47,720
Speaker 13: And then they can take one or multiple loans out

1106
00:58:47,760 --> 00:58:51,560
Speaker 13: on it. And by the time that all transpires, they're

1107
00:58:51,640 --> 00:58:53,840
Speaker 13: gone and you don't even know about it until the

1108
00:58:53,840 --> 00:58:56,400
Speaker 13: loan company comes and said, hey, you took out this

1109
00:58:56,480 --> 00:58:57,160
Speaker 13: equity loan.

1110
00:58:57,280 --> 00:58:59,800
Speaker 9: No I didn't. Well, it says here on paper you did.

1111
00:59:00,200 --> 00:59:03,000
Speaker 13: It is so easy to do, and the only way

1112
00:59:03,040 --> 00:59:06,360
Speaker 13: to stop it is to monitor your title. And nobody

1113
00:59:06,360 --> 00:59:09,160
Speaker 13: can do that. It's just simply impractical to do it.

1114
00:59:09,240 --> 00:59:12,000
Speaker 13: Twenty four to seven. But there are some companies, and

1115
00:59:12,080 --> 00:59:15,400
Speaker 13: one in particular, and I research them all, Terrence, a

1116
00:59:15,400 --> 00:59:18,000
Speaker 13: company called Home Title Lock and what they do or

1117
00:59:18,080 --> 00:59:19,760
Speaker 13: three things, they call it the million.

1118
00:59:19,480 --> 00:59:23,920
Speaker 9: Dollar triple lock protection. Okay, nitor your title twenty four

1119
00:59:23,920 --> 00:59:27,720
Speaker 9: to seven. You can't possibly do that. They lurts you

1120
00:59:27,760 --> 00:59:29,440
Speaker 9: if there's something fishy going.

1121
00:59:29,240 --> 00:59:31,840
Speaker 22: On, and we can get information about that there on

1122
00:59:31,840 --> 00:59:33,480
Speaker 22: our screen. I'm sorry to cut you off, but home

01:00:03,040 --> 01:00:03,800
Speaker 24: and Great American.

1129
01:00:04,120 --> 01:00:05,360
Speaker 12: Sean, Welcome to the program.

1130
01:00:05,440 --> 01:00:09,800
Speaker 24: Sean, what is your take on this entire Signal chat story?

1131
01:00:09,920 --> 01:00:12,040
Speaker 24: I use Signal a lot. You've used signal a lot.

1132
01:00:12,360 --> 01:00:16,360
Speaker 24: Something here does not add up. Either Mike Waltz is

1133
01:00:16,400 --> 01:00:21,840
Speaker 24: totally lying or Signal was compromised by the CIA, one

1134
01:00:21,920 --> 01:00:22,320
Speaker 24: or the other.

1135
01:00:22,360 --> 01:00:22,840
Speaker 12: Which is it.

1136
01:00:24,040 --> 01:00:26,800
Speaker 29: Yeah, Well, look, I mean keep in mind, so there's

1137
01:00:26,840 --> 01:00:29,120
Speaker 29: a few things to this story that need to be

1138
01:00:29,160 --> 01:00:31,400
Speaker 29: taken care of because the media and the Democrats are

1139
01:00:31,440 --> 01:00:34,760
Speaker 29: taking this and blowing everything up and using terms that, frankly,

1140
01:00:34,800 --> 01:00:36,560
Speaker 29: with all due respect, they have no right. I mean,

1141
01:00:36,600 --> 01:00:39,120
Speaker 29: they have no understanding of When they throw out words

1142
01:00:39,120 --> 01:00:43,240
Speaker 29: like warplan classified, those might be words in but they

1143
01:00:43,280 --> 01:00:44,240
Speaker 29: actually have meaning.

1144
01:00:44,320 --> 01:00:44,560
Speaker 10: Right.

1145
01:00:44,640 --> 01:00:48,440
Speaker 29: So, there are operational plans called O plans. They're sensitive,

1146
01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:51,920
Speaker 29: classify or confidential secret, top secret.

1147
01:00:52,160 --> 01:00:53,280
Speaker 10: The first thing that we got.

1148
01:00:53,160 --> 01:00:55,800
Speaker 29: To get out of the way is that clearly from

1149
01:00:55,800 --> 01:00:59,040
Speaker 29: what John Radcliffe, the CIA director said yesterday, Signal.

1150
01:00:58,760 --> 01:01:00,320
Speaker 12: Is an authorized platform.

1151
01:01:00,440 --> 01:01:03,440
Speaker 29: The second issue is what was being discussed was it

1152
01:01:03,480 --> 01:01:06,920
Speaker 29: classified or not. I trust the folks, you know, the

1153
01:01:06,920 --> 01:01:10,760
Speaker 29: CIA director, the DNI director, to determine that more than

1154
01:01:10,800 --> 01:01:13,479
Speaker 29: a bunch of lefty media types that have no experienced missed.

1155
01:01:13,600 --> 01:01:15,800
Speaker 29: And then the third thing is what you're talking about, Charlie,

1156
01:01:15,880 --> 01:01:19,120
Speaker 29: which is how does Jeffrey Goldberg get into this chat?

1157
01:01:19,200 --> 01:01:19,360
Speaker 13: Now?

1158
01:01:19,440 --> 01:01:22,440
Speaker 29: Mike Waltz, as you said or alluded to his admitted

1159
01:01:22,480 --> 01:01:24,120
Speaker 29: he went on Laura Ingram last night and said, I'm

1160
01:01:24,120 --> 01:01:27,280
Speaker 29: the guy who created this group chat, but how did

1161
01:01:27,320 --> 01:01:29,880
Speaker 29: he get in his phone book? Right? And that's where

1162
01:01:29,880 --> 01:01:31,640
Speaker 29: I think the big issue is, is that walt said

1163
01:01:31,720 --> 01:01:32,920
Speaker 29: last night, I don't know.

1164
01:01:33,280 --> 01:01:34,120
Speaker 12: Now here's the deal.

1165
01:01:34,640 --> 01:01:38,080
Speaker 29: When I first met Jeffrey Goldberg, I called to yell

1166
01:01:38,160 --> 01:01:41,480
Speaker 29: at him in the twenty sixteen twenty seventeen transition because

1167
01:01:41,920 --> 01:01:46,040
Speaker 29: his publication had this gadfly, horrible person named Julia Offy

1168
01:01:46,320 --> 01:01:50,120
Speaker 29: who wrote a disgusting and despickle the story about Avanka Trump.

1169
01:01:50,200 --> 01:01:51,680
Speaker 29: And I called to yell at him and said, hey,

1170
01:01:51,720 --> 01:01:54,240
Speaker 29: I know we've never met blah blah blah blah blah.

1171
01:01:54,280 --> 01:01:55,080
Speaker 5: So he's in my phone.

1172
01:01:55,080 --> 01:01:57,080
Speaker 29: So I went to signal and I said, okay, let's

1173
01:01:57,160 --> 01:01:58,640
Speaker 29: let me kind of recreate this how.

1174
01:01:58,520 --> 01:02:00,520
Speaker 15: Would he signal in ports?

1175
01:02:00,600 --> 01:02:03,960
Speaker 29: All of your contacts, they're your phone to the thing.

1176
01:02:04,280 --> 01:02:07,240
Speaker 29: So one has to assume either Mike Waltz. And by

1177
01:02:07,280 --> 01:02:10,880
Speaker 29: the way, Jeffrey Goldberg admits that he's only met Waltz

1178
01:02:11,040 --> 01:02:13,680
Speaker 29: maybe once, maybe twice, several years ago.

1179
01:02:13,800 --> 01:02:14,960
Speaker 12: And that's Washington for you.

1180
01:02:15,000 --> 01:02:16,960
Speaker 29: Hey, I was at an event, we're at a forum.

1181
01:02:17,160 --> 01:02:20,280
Speaker 29: We cross paths. But how did his number end up

1182
01:02:20,280 --> 01:02:22,760
Speaker 29: in his phone book? Because Waltz says, I don't know,

1183
01:02:22,840 --> 01:02:26,040
Speaker 29: I've never talked to him. That's the question that I

1184
01:02:26,080 --> 01:02:28,920
Speaker 29: think is important here because there's a lot of theories,

1185
01:02:28,960 --> 01:02:31,440
Speaker 29: Like you think about this, The US Trade Rep is

1186
01:02:31,560 --> 01:02:34,920
Speaker 29: Jamison Greer JG. So if you're looking down initials in

1187
01:02:34,960 --> 01:02:37,200
Speaker 29: your phone book, you mistakenly get the wrong JG, not

1188
01:02:37,280 --> 01:02:40,800
Speaker 29: Jeffrey Goldberg, Jameson Greer bring him in, okay, But how

1189
01:02:40,840 --> 01:02:42,680
Speaker 29: did he end up in the phone book in the

1190
01:02:42,680 --> 01:02:45,520
Speaker 29: first place, in his list of contacts? And that's where

1191
01:02:45,520 --> 01:02:48,320
Speaker 29: I think the Waltz team is say, hey, we're asking

1192
01:02:48,680 --> 01:02:50,560
Speaker 29: the tech folks to look at this, because you're right,

1193
01:02:50,880 --> 01:02:53,360
Speaker 29: at some point this is going to come out right.

1194
01:02:53,440 --> 01:02:56,240
Speaker 29: It's did you personally add him in or did somebody

1195
01:02:56,240 --> 01:02:56,760
Speaker 29: else do it.

1196
01:02:56,760 --> 01:02:58,160
Speaker 12: But there's only two ways.

1197
01:02:57,920 --> 01:03:03,240
Speaker 24: That that can happen, right, and so other than that,

1198
01:03:03,360 --> 01:03:06,360
Speaker 24: or something even more nefarious happened, like the Intel agencies

1199
01:03:06,520 --> 01:03:09,440
Speaker 24: hacked this group chat, which is a very low probability.

1200
01:03:09,760 --> 01:03:13,880
Speaker 24: But let's just play some of the some of the

1201
01:03:13,720 --> 01:03:18,240
Speaker 24: the statements from Mike Walltz his denials, I mean outright denials,

1202
01:03:18,720 --> 01:03:21,600
Speaker 24: saying that Waltz claims the stafford did not put his

1203
01:03:21,720 --> 01:03:24,080
Speaker 24: contact in Let's play cut two thirty two.

1204
01:03:25,600 --> 01:03:30,320
Speaker 12: So your your stafford did not put his contact information,

1205
01:03:30,760 --> 01:03:32,560
Speaker 12: but how did it end up? So that's what we're

1206
01:03:32,600 --> 01:03:34,200
Speaker 12: trying to That's what we're trying to figure out.

1207
01:03:34,240 --> 01:03:37,280
Speaker 16: Okay, but that's a pretty big problem.

1208
01:03:37,400 --> 01:03:40,480
Speaker 30: We've got the best technical minds, right, that's and that's

1209
01:03:40,520 --> 01:03:43,600
Speaker 30: where I mean, I'm sure everybody out there has had

1210
01:03:43,640 --> 01:03:46,760
Speaker 30: a contact where you it was said one person and

1211
01:03:46,800 --> 01:03:48,080
Speaker 30: then a different phone number.

1212
01:03:48,040 --> 01:03:49,760
Speaker 12: But you've never talked to him before. So how's the

1213
01:03:49,800 --> 01:03:50,560
Speaker 12: number on your phone?

1214
01:03:50,560 --> 01:03:52,160
Speaker 11: I mean, I'm not an expert in any of this, but.

1215
01:03:52,080 --> 01:03:53,760
Speaker 12: It's just curre. How's the number on your phone?

1216
01:03:53,760 --> 01:03:56,080
Speaker 30: Well, if you have somebody else's contact and then it

1217
01:03:56,360 --> 01:03:57,479
Speaker 30: and then somehow, oh.

1218
01:03:57,520 --> 01:03:59,040
Speaker 12: Someone sent you that, it.

1219
01:03:58,920 --> 01:04:01,120
Speaker 30: Gets sucked in there someone else supposed to be on

1220
01:04:01,160 --> 01:04:02,960
Speaker 30: the chat that wasn't on the chat.

1221
01:04:02,880 --> 01:04:03,440
Speaker 10: That you thought.

1222
01:04:03,560 --> 01:04:06,400
Speaker 30: So the person that I thought was on there was

1223
01:04:06,480 --> 01:04:07,080
Speaker 30: never on there.

1224
01:04:07,320 --> 01:04:08,400
Speaker 10: It was this was that.

1225
01:04:09,200 --> 01:04:12,560
Speaker 30: Wow, I'm not look, Laura, I take I take responsibility.

1226
01:04:12,600 --> 01:04:14,120
Speaker 12: I built the I built the group.

1227
01:04:15,120 --> 01:04:18,080
Speaker 24: I mean, I'm sorry Sean getting sucked in. I use

1228
01:04:18,160 --> 01:04:20,320
Speaker 24: signal all the time. I have no idea what he's

1229
01:04:20,360 --> 01:04:21,080
Speaker 24: talking about here.

1230
01:04:21,600 --> 01:04:22,840
Speaker 10: Well, that's that's why I thought.

1231
01:04:22,840 --> 01:04:26,000
Speaker 29: What was weird is that, like, so I get that

1232
01:04:26,840 --> 01:04:29,480
Speaker 29: like that, So what he's alluding to is I have

1233
01:04:29,600 --> 01:04:32,200
Speaker 29: Charlie Kirk in my phone, but gosh, you know, instead

1234
01:04:32,200 --> 01:04:35,800
Speaker 29: of Charlie Kirk's phone number, I have, you know, Bob Smith,

1235
01:04:36,200 --> 01:04:38,360
Speaker 29: and so I think I'm texting you and that that

1236
01:04:38,520 --> 01:04:40,440
Speaker 29: seems to be what he was saying. Well, I don't

1237
01:04:40,440 --> 01:04:42,360
Speaker 29: get that right. In other words, what he was saying

1238
01:04:42,440 --> 01:04:45,800
Speaker 29: is and again I'm just speculating, but JG. Jamison Greer

1239
01:04:45,920 --> 01:04:48,560
Speaker 29: the US trade route, that would make sense. Okay, So

1240
01:04:48,640 --> 01:04:50,600
Speaker 29: what he seems to be saying is I thought I

1241
01:04:50,680 --> 01:04:52,840
Speaker 29: was adding somebody to the text, and it earns out

1242
01:04:52,840 --> 01:04:56,840
Speaker 29: that it was Jeffrey Goldberg's number, right, And my point is, okay,

1243
01:04:56,840 --> 01:04:59,560
Speaker 29: that still doesn't you still have Like no one goes

1244
01:05:00,160 --> 01:05:03,440
Speaker 29: like that's just it doesn't make sense. I buy the

1245
01:05:03,480 --> 01:05:05,880
Speaker 29: fact that, yeah, hey, as a member of Congress, maybe

1246
01:05:05,960 --> 01:05:07,440
Speaker 29: his staff said hey.

1247
01:05:07,240 --> 01:05:09,480
Speaker 10: We're going to upload some reporters to your phones.

1248
01:05:09,560 --> 01:05:12,000
Speaker 29: You can contact them before he assumed the direct I

1249
01:05:12,120 --> 01:05:14,720
Speaker 29: I could buy that. Like I didn't put him in.

1250
01:05:14,760 --> 01:05:17,440
Speaker 29: My staff used to program my phone. Okay, But the

1251
01:05:17,520 --> 01:05:20,200
Speaker 29: idea that you thought you were contacting somebody else and

1252
01:05:20,280 --> 01:05:24,280
Speaker 29: their numbers were just transposed, I've never had that happen, right,

1253
01:05:24,360 --> 01:05:27,400
Speaker 29: I mean that to me. Uh And also, just like,

1254
01:05:27,560 --> 01:05:30,560
Speaker 29: let's face it, Jamison Greer just happens to have a

1255
01:05:30,600 --> 01:05:34,320
Speaker 29: one off phone number than Jeffrey Goldberg. This is where

1256
01:05:34,720 --> 01:05:36,960
Speaker 29: I hope he does get the best technical minds to.

1257
01:05:37,240 --> 01:05:39,240
Speaker 12: Look at this, right.

1258
01:05:39,400 --> 01:05:41,320
Speaker 24: And so the other thing about signal, if you and

1259
01:05:41,320 --> 01:05:43,040
Speaker 24: I were to talk on signal a lot, Sean, and

1260
01:05:43,080 --> 01:05:44,560
Speaker 24: then I went to go create a new message.

1261
01:05:44,560 --> 01:05:47,760
Speaker 23: We're interrupting this program for a special live report.

1262
01:05:48,400 --> 01:05:50,440
Speaker 22: The latest press briefing at the White House is just

1263
01:05:50,480 --> 01:05:53,800
Speaker 22: getting underway now. Caroline Levitt is at the podium. Let's listen.

1264
01:05:53,840 --> 01:05:58,000
Speaker 31: In Electric pledged to invest more than seven hundred million

1265
01:05:58,040 --> 01:06:02,040
Speaker 31: dollars in the United States to boost American energy, infrastructure

1266
01:06:02,320 --> 01:06:06,880
Speaker 31: and AI. On Monday, Hundai announced a twenty billion dollar

1267
01:06:06,960 --> 01:06:10,320
Speaker 31: investment in the United States, including five point eight billion

1268
01:06:10,360 --> 01:06:13,720
Speaker 31: dollars for a new steal plant in Louisiana, which will

1269
01:06:13,720 --> 01:06:18,160
Speaker 31: create nearly fifteen hundred high paying jobs. President Trump is

1270
01:06:18,240 --> 01:06:24,000
Speaker 31: truly turning America back into a manufacturing superpower. Yesterday, President

1271
01:06:24,000 --> 01:06:26,680
Speaker 31: Trump marked National Medal of Honor Day by meeting with

1272
01:06:26,800 --> 01:06:31,080
Speaker 31: twenty one of our nation's bravest heroes and incredible patriots

1273
01:06:31,080 --> 01:06:35,120
Speaker 31: who have been awarded the highest military honor, Beautiful Picture.

1274
01:06:35,640 --> 01:06:38,960
Speaker 31: The President also signed a historic executive order to protect

1275
01:06:38,960 --> 01:06:43,680
Speaker 31: the integrity of American elections by strengthening voter citizenship verification

1276
01:06:44,120 --> 01:06:48,600
Speaker 31: and banning foreign nationals from interfering in US elections. These

1277
01:06:48,680 --> 01:06:52,440
Speaker 31: are the common sense solutions that only Democrats could oppose,

1278
01:06:53,120 --> 01:06:56,680
Speaker 31: but voters deserve elections they can trust, and critical confidence

1279
01:06:56,720 --> 01:07:01,280
Speaker 31: is being restored thanks to President Trump's leadership. Later this afternoon,

1280
01:07:01,320 --> 01:07:04,520
Speaker 31: in the Easterroom, President Trump will mark Women's History Month

1281
01:07:04,600 --> 01:07:08,320
Speaker 31: by honoring the exceptional women around our country, including the

1282
01:07:08,400 --> 01:07:12,360
Speaker 31: highly talented women in his administration and his cabinet, and

1283
01:07:12,480 --> 01:07:15,240
Speaker 31: on an additional scheduling update, The President will hold a

1284
01:07:15,280 --> 01:07:17,960
Speaker 31: press conference in the Oval Office today at four o'clock

1285
01:07:18,000 --> 01:07:21,720
Speaker 31: PM to announce tariffs on the auto industry, and I

1286
01:07:21,720 --> 01:07:25,680
Speaker 31: will leave that to him to make that announcement later. Unfortunately,

1287
01:07:25,800 --> 01:07:28,400
Speaker 31: all of this good is happening for our country. This

1288
01:07:28,480 --> 01:07:31,520
Speaker 31: administration is working hard on behalf of the American public

1289
01:07:31,560 --> 01:07:35,120
Speaker 31: every day, but the mainstream media continues to be focused

1290
01:07:35,440 --> 01:07:39,480
Speaker 31: on a sensationalized story from the failing Atlantic magazine that

1291
01:07:39,640 --> 01:07:43,640
Speaker 31: is falling apart by the hour. Here are the facts.

1292
01:07:44,160 --> 01:07:47,840
Speaker 31: The National Security Advisor has taken responsibility for this matter,

1293
01:07:48,120 --> 01:07:52,200
Speaker 31: and the National Security a Council immediately said, alongside the

1294
01:07:52,200 --> 01:07:55,280
Speaker 31: White House Council's Office, that they are looking into how

1295
01:07:55,320 --> 01:07:58,880
Speaker 31: a reporter's number was inadvertently added to this messaging thread.

1296
01:07:59,520 --> 01:08:03,280
Speaker 31: We have add all along that no classified material was

1297
01:08:03,320 --> 01:08:06,680
Speaker 31: sent on this messaging thread. There were no locations, no

1298
01:08:06,880 --> 01:08:10,720
Speaker 31: sources or methods revealed, and there were certainly no war

1299
01:08:10,800 --> 01:08:15,680
Speaker 31: plans discussed. The Atlantic has even admitted this themselves. Their

1300
01:08:15,720 --> 01:08:19,040
Speaker 31: release of these internal messages validates the truth which we

1301
01:08:19,200 --> 01:08:22,920
Speaker 31: have been saying all along. If this story proves anything,

1302
01:08:23,320 --> 01:08:26,880
Speaker 31: it proves that Democrats and their propagandists in the mainstream

1303
01:08:26,920 --> 01:08:31,480
Speaker 31: media know how to fabricate, orchestrate and disseminate a misinformation

1304
01:08:31,600 --> 01:08:34,880
Speaker 31: campaign quite well. And there's arguably no one in the

1305
01:08:34,920 --> 01:08:40,000
Speaker 31: media who loves manufacturing and pushing hoaxes more than Jeffrey Goldberg.

1306
01:08:40,600 --> 01:08:44,440
Speaker 31: Goldberg is an anti Trump hater. He is a registered Democrat.

1307
01:08:44,720 --> 01:08:48,120
Speaker 31: Goldberg's wife is also a registered Democrat and a big

1308
01:08:48,160 --> 01:08:51,879
Speaker 31: Democrat donor who used to work under who Hillary Clinton.

1309
01:08:52,439 --> 01:08:55,639
Speaker 31: This is the same Jeffrey Goldberg who infamously lied about

1310
01:08:55,680 --> 01:08:58,439
Speaker 31: weapons of mass destruction to get us into the Iraq War,

1311
01:08:58,760 --> 01:09:02,800
Speaker 31: which cost trillions of doyousands of American soldiers. And how

1312
01:09:02,840 --> 01:09:07,639
Speaker 31: else has Goldberg discredited himself by absurdly claiming that President

1313
01:09:07,680 --> 01:09:11,800
Speaker 31: Trump was Vladimir Putin during the twenty sixteen campaign, by

1314
01:09:11,880 --> 01:09:15,080
Speaker 31: peddling the Russia Russia Russia hoax that tried to hijack

1315
01:09:15,360 --> 01:09:19,120
Speaker 31: President Trump's first term by inventing the Suckers and Losers

1316
01:09:19,200 --> 01:09:21,920
Speaker 31: hopes to help Joe Biden in the twenty twenty election

1317
01:09:22,520 --> 01:09:25,800
Speaker 31: by peddling a hoax about President Trump involving gold Star

1318
01:09:25,920 --> 01:09:29,639
Speaker 31: families to help Kamala Harris in the twenty twenty four election,

1319
01:09:30,040 --> 01:09:34,120
Speaker 31: which our campaign at the time vigorously denied Jeffrey Goldberg

1320
01:09:34,160 --> 01:09:37,200
Speaker 31: didn't care. There's more, but we don't have all day,

1321
01:09:37,320 --> 01:09:39,479
Speaker 31: and we can now add this signal hoax to this

1322
01:09:39,720 --> 01:09:43,520
Speaker 31: very long list. The real story here is the overwhelming

1323
01:09:43,600 --> 01:09:48,840
Speaker 31: success of President Trump's decisive military action against Uthy terrorists.

1324
01:09:49,439 --> 01:09:53,240
Speaker 31: On March fifteenth, President Trump ordered a series of military

1325
01:09:53,280 --> 01:09:57,400
Speaker 31: operations against the terrorists toothies to defend US shipping assets

1326
01:09:57,400 --> 01:10:01,519
Speaker 31: in the Red Sea, restore freedom of navigator for international shipping,

1327
01:10:01,760 --> 01:10:05,679
Speaker 31: and defend the United States from enemy threats. United States

1328
01:10:05,720 --> 01:10:11,400
Speaker 31: forces successfully struck dozens of targets across Houthy controlled territory,

1329
01:10:11,920 --> 01:10:14,759
Speaker 31: and as a result of these actions, several Houthy leaders

1330
01:10:14,760 --> 01:10:18,519
Speaker 31: were killed, including the Hoothy drone chief, his deputy, and

1331
01:10:18,600 --> 01:10:22,280
Speaker 31: several of their Jane experts and other key leaders. We

1332
01:10:22,400 --> 01:10:26,960
Speaker 31: also destroyed command and controlled facilities, weapons manufacturing facilities, and

1333
01:10:27,080 --> 01:10:31,479
Speaker 31: advanced weapons storage locations. And it's important to remember why

1334
01:10:31,520 --> 01:10:35,200
Speaker 31: this powerful action took place in the first place. Because

1335
01:10:35,240 --> 01:10:38,759
Speaker 31: of Joe Biden's incompetence and pathetic weakness on the world

1336
01:10:38,800 --> 01:10:43,960
Speaker 31: stage four years, the Houthy terrorists grew emboldened. Immediately after

1337
01:10:44,040 --> 01:10:47,240
Speaker 31: taking office in twenty twenty one, Joe Biden removed the

1338
01:10:47,280 --> 01:10:51,080
Speaker 31: iron backed Houthis from the foreign Terrorist Organization in specifically

1339
01:10:51,400 --> 01:10:55,320
Speaker 31: designated Global Terrorists list. Did anybody in this room ask

1340
01:10:55,360 --> 01:10:58,080
Speaker 31: the Bided administration at the time why they made such

1341
01:10:58,080 --> 01:11:02,599
Speaker 31: a stupid mistake. This reckless action undid the designation put

1342
01:11:02,640 --> 01:11:05,360
Speaker 31: in place by President Trump during his first term, and

1343
01:11:05,439 --> 01:11:10,240
Speaker 31: what followed was predictable in devastating. The houthies targeted US

1344
01:11:10,240 --> 01:11:15,040
Speaker 31: military ships and aircraft, hit commercial ships, including US flagged vessels,

1345
01:11:15,320 --> 01:11:19,240
Speaker 31: threatened our personnel overseas, and attacked our allies in the region.

1346
01:11:19,880 --> 01:11:22,759
Speaker 31: This resulted in more than a year of US flagged

1347
01:11:22,760 --> 01:11:26,639
Speaker 31: commercial ships being prevented from safely sailing through the Suez Canal,

1348
01:11:26,920 --> 01:11:30,040
Speaker 31: the Red Sea, and the Gulf of Aden. This had

1349
01:11:30,040 --> 01:11:33,200
Speaker 31: a massive negative impact on global trade of the economic

1350
01:11:33,240 --> 01:11:37,160
Speaker 31: security of the United States. Joe Biden was the commander

1351
01:11:37,200 --> 01:11:39,920
Speaker 31: in chief and he sat on his hands while the

1352
01:11:40,000 --> 01:11:43,720
Speaker 31: United States of America was bullied and embarrassed by terrorists.

1353
01:11:44,280 --> 01:11:47,040
Speaker 31: President Trump and his team are putting a stop to

1354
01:11:47,080 --> 01:11:50,880
Speaker 31: these threats in restoring American strength around the world. The

1355
01:11:51,000 --> 01:11:55,120
Speaker 31: Trump Peace through Strength approach means no terrorist force will

1356
01:11:55,160 --> 01:11:58,479
Speaker 31: stop American commercial and naval vessels from freely sailing the

1357
01:11:58,520 --> 01:12:02,280
Speaker 31: waterways of the world. But unfortunately this is not what

1358
01:12:02,400 --> 01:12:05,240
Speaker 31: the Democrats in the media want to talk about. They

1359
01:12:05,280 --> 01:12:09,000
Speaker 31: are focused on a coordinated campaign to try and sow

1360
01:12:09,080 --> 01:12:11,880
Speaker 31: chaos in this White House. And this has been the

1361
01:12:11,880 --> 01:12:15,639
Speaker 31: most successful first two months of any administration ever, which

1362
01:12:15,680 --> 01:12:18,120
Speaker 31: is exactly why they are doing this. We are not

1363
01:12:18,240 --> 01:12:21,160
Speaker 31: going to bend in the face of this insincere outrage.

1364
01:12:21,600 --> 01:12:23,880
Speaker 31: And here's just one example of how bad faith the

1365
01:12:23,920 --> 01:12:29,080
Speaker 31: Democrat's criticisms are. Democrat Senator Mark Warner is hysterical over

1366
01:12:29,120 --> 01:12:32,000
Speaker 31: the use of Signal, which is an approved acryptid app

1367
01:12:32,080 --> 01:12:35,880
Speaker 31: in the killing of Huthy terrorists. But Senator Warner himself

1368
01:12:36,160 --> 01:12:38,879
Speaker 31: used Signal to work with a lobbyist for a Russian

1369
01:12:38,920 --> 01:12:43,320
Speaker 31: oligarch to connect with it, to connect the disgraced Steele

1370
01:12:43,439 --> 01:12:47,799
Speaker 31: dossier author who started the Russia hoax, which Jeffrey Goldberg

1371
01:12:47,880 --> 01:12:51,040
Speaker 31: later reported on how ironic. We're not going to lose

1372
01:12:51,080 --> 01:12:53,879
Speaker 31: focus of the bottom line, which is that Joe Biden's

1373
01:12:53,880 --> 01:12:57,920
Speaker 31: weakness enabled and emboldened Hoothy terrorists. In President Trump's strength

1374
01:12:58,000 --> 01:13:02,040
Speaker 31: and resolve eliminated the terrorists. Here in our new media

1375
01:13:02,080 --> 01:13:04,799
Speaker 31: seat today we have Lindsay Keith. She is the managing

1376
01:13:04,960 --> 01:13:08,840
Speaker 31: editor for Merit TV and serves as their White House correspondent.

1377
01:13:09,160 --> 01:13:12,080
Speaker 31: Merritt TV launched one year ago and creates and distributes

1378
01:13:12,120 --> 01:13:15,759
Speaker 31: content across diverse platforms. We're glad to have you with us, Lindsay,

1379
01:13:15,800 --> 01:13:16,639
Speaker 31: please kick us off.

1380
01:13:16,760 --> 01:13:17,439
Speaker 25: Thank you, Carolyn.

1381
01:13:17,479 --> 01:13:20,000
Speaker 32: I appreciate it and this opportunity for Merit TV.

1382
01:13:20,720 --> 01:13:23,479
Speaker 1: Two questions, if I may, one on Signal, one on

1383
01:13:23,520 --> 01:13:24,160
Speaker 1: the economy.

1384
01:13:24,360 --> 01:13:28,800
Speaker 31: Sure on signal. How comfortable is the president with what

1385
01:13:28,920 --> 01:13:30,080
Speaker 31: was shared so far?

1386
01:13:30,240 --> 01:13:31,919
Speaker 2: Now that the chain has been released.

1387
01:13:32,120 --> 01:13:35,519
Speaker 31: The President's view on all of this remains the same

1388
01:13:35,600 --> 01:13:38,200
Speaker 31: today as it did yesterday. And I think it speaks

1389
01:13:38,280 --> 01:13:40,880
Speaker 31: volumes about the leadership of this president that he went

1390
01:13:40,920 --> 01:13:43,280
Speaker 31: directly to all of you members of the press. Score

1391
01:13:43,400 --> 01:13:45,559
Speaker 31: he was asked, do you want someone else to go

1392
01:13:45,600 --> 01:13:47,680
Speaker 31: out and do a briefing, and he said, no, I

1393
01:13:47,760 --> 01:13:50,639
Speaker 31: will tackle this story. I will discuss it. The people

1394
01:13:50,680 --> 01:13:53,240
Speaker 31: need to hear from me about the situation. And so

1395
01:13:53,320 --> 01:13:57,120
Speaker 31: his thoughts on this remained the same today. He has

1396
01:13:57,240 --> 01:14:00,559
Speaker 31: placed great trust in his national security team. And as

1397
01:14:00,560 --> 01:14:03,440
Speaker 31: for the usage of signal, as the President said yesterday,

1398
01:14:03,479 --> 01:14:06,559
Speaker 31: as the CIA director has testified under oath, this is

1399
01:14:06,600 --> 01:14:10,320
Speaker 31: an approved app. It's an encrypted app. The Department of Defense,

1400
01:14:10,360 --> 01:14:13,160
Speaker 31: the Department of State, the CIA has it loaded onto

1401
01:14:13,200 --> 01:14:16,519
Speaker 31: government phones because it is the most secure and efficient

1402
01:14:16,520 --> 01:14:20,120
Speaker 31: way to communicate. As for again the original situation in

1403
01:14:20,160 --> 01:14:22,960
Speaker 31: this messaging thread, the National Security Council, the White House

1404
01:14:22,960 --> 01:14:26,040
Speaker 31: Counsel's Office continues to look in to how this mistake,

1405
01:14:26,080 --> 01:14:29,559
Speaker 31: which the National Security Advisor has owned, occurred, and the

1406
01:14:29,600 --> 01:14:31,080
Speaker 31: President has ensured they are doing that.

1407
01:14:31,600 --> 01:14:34,800
Speaker 1: On the economy, super confidence hit a four year low

1408
01:14:34,960 --> 01:14:35,599
Speaker 1: this month.

1409
01:14:36,120 --> 01:14:37,240
Speaker 2: Can you help explain to.

1410
01:14:37,200 --> 01:14:40,600
Speaker 33: The American people how tariffs will help them in the

1411
01:14:40,640 --> 01:14:41,120
Speaker 33: long run.

1412
01:14:41,200 --> 01:14:41,400
Speaker 9: Yeah.

1413
01:14:41,439 --> 01:14:44,439
Speaker 31: Absolutely, and I'm grateful for the question. The American public

1414
01:14:44,439 --> 01:14:47,639
Speaker 31: will hear later to this afternoon from the President directly

1415
01:14:47,720 --> 01:14:50,040
Speaker 31: on the topic of tariffs. And as you all know,

1416
01:14:50,160 --> 01:14:53,160
Speaker 31: April second day, President Trump has proudly dubbed it Liberation

1417
01:14:53,320 --> 01:14:56,800
Speaker 31: Day for our country. What he means by that is

1418
01:14:56,880 --> 01:14:58,600
Speaker 31: it will be a day where the United States of

1419
01:14:58,600 --> 01:15:01,679
Speaker 31: America will no longer be ripped off by nations around

1420
01:15:01,680 --> 01:15:04,479
Speaker 31: this world. It will be a day where Americans finally

1421
01:15:04,520 --> 01:15:08,920
Speaker 31: see free and fair trade practices restored. We are no

1422
01:15:09,000 --> 01:15:11,519
Speaker 31: longer going to allow our allies, our competitors, and our

1423
01:15:11,560 --> 01:15:14,800
Speaker 31: adversaries to take advantage of American workers. And if you

1424
01:15:14,840 --> 01:15:17,360
Speaker 31: think about your hometown in the state that you grew up,

1425
01:15:17,760 --> 01:15:20,519
Speaker 31: main Street looks a lot different today than it did

1426
01:15:20,680 --> 01:15:23,839
Speaker 31: many years ago. And President Trump wants to restore America

1427
01:15:23,880 --> 01:15:27,479
Speaker 31: as a manufacturing superpower around the globe. He wants products

1428
01:15:27,479 --> 01:15:31,200
Speaker 31: to be made right here in our great country with great,

1429
01:15:31,200 --> 01:15:35,680
Speaker 31: hardworking American hands that will ultimately result in higher wages

1430
01:15:35,720 --> 01:15:37,920
Speaker 31: and more money in the pockets of the American people.

1431
01:15:38,520 --> 01:15:42,400
Speaker 31: And he's also, in addition to tariffs, also determined to

1432
01:15:42,439 --> 01:15:45,080
Speaker 31: pass tax cuts later this year, as he did successfully

1433
01:15:45,080 --> 01:15:47,439
Speaker 31: in his first term, to put even more money back

1434
01:15:47,439 --> 01:15:49,200
Speaker 31: into the pockets of hardworking Americans.

1435
01:15:49,560 --> 01:15:51,719
Speaker 34: Peter Scherla, if I can ask you very quickly about

1436
01:15:51,760 --> 01:15:54,559
Speaker 34: the information we've seen, just to set the predicates all this.

1437
01:15:54,640 --> 01:15:58,799
Speaker 34: Has the President been briefed and physically seen the He's.

1438
01:15:58,680 --> 01:16:00,519
Speaker 10: Seen all the details of the chat as printed by

1439
01:16:00,560 --> 01:16:00,840
Speaker 10: the olier.

1440
01:16:00,960 --> 01:16:02,280
Speaker 31: I just spoke to the President about it.

1441
01:16:02,400 --> 01:16:04,320
Speaker 10: Yes, And let me ask you if I can very quickly.

1442
01:16:04,320 --> 01:16:08,680
Speaker 34: In the chat, Pete Hegseth, the Defense Secretary, details F

1443
01:16:08,720 --> 01:16:11,840
Speaker 34: eighteen's Tomahawks of some of the weapons that were used.

1444
01:16:11,840 --> 01:16:15,040
Speaker 34: He details the timing involved for this, all of which

1445
01:16:15,040 --> 01:16:18,080
Speaker 34: occurred thirty one minutes before, as he says, F eighteens

1446
01:16:18,520 --> 01:16:23,760
Speaker 34: would launch the DoD manual details classified information as significant

1447
01:16:23,760 --> 01:16:27,280
Speaker 34: military plans, saying that is secret, that that's classified. So

1448
01:16:27,400 --> 01:16:30,360
Speaker 34: what about there are no methods, there are no sources.

1449
01:16:30,680 --> 01:16:34,360
Speaker 34: But that's not what determines what's classified. So what is

1450
01:16:34,400 --> 01:16:37,040
Speaker 34: it about what Pete Hegseth wrote that makes you say

1451
01:16:37,080 --> 01:16:38,360
Speaker 34: this is not classified.

1452
01:16:38,360 --> 01:16:40,160
Speaker 31: Well, it's not just me saying that, Peter, it's the

1453
01:16:40,200 --> 01:16:43,800
Speaker 31: Secretary of Defense himself who is saying this as well.

1454
01:16:44,080 --> 01:16:46,479
Speaker 31: And he put out a very strong statement earlier today

1455
01:16:46,920 --> 01:16:49,479
Speaker 31: listing all of the things that were not included in

1456
01:16:49,520 --> 01:16:51,840
Speaker 31: that message that he sent to the group. And again

1457
01:16:51,960 --> 01:16:55,120
Speaker 31: this message, there was no classified information transmitted, There were

1458
01:16:55,160 --> 01:16:59,400
Speaker 31: no more plans discussed. Why did the Atlantic downgrade their

1459
01:16:59,479 --> 01:17:03,160
Speaker 31: allegation about war plans to attack plans. They're now playing

1460
01:17:03,160 --> 01:17:06,280
Speaker 31: word games because they know this was sensationalist spin from

1461
01:17:06,280 --> 01:17:08,640
Speaker 31: a reporter who is well known for doing this. We

1462
01:17:08,680 --> 01:17:10,840
Speaker 31: have said all along, no war plans were discussed, no

1463
01:17:10,920 --> 01:17:14,120
Speaker 31: classified material was sent. You have the Secretary of Defense

1464
01:17:14,160 --> 01:17:16,519
Speaker 31: saying that, you have the director of the CIA, the

1465
01:17:16,520 --> 01:17:19,840
Speaker 31: Director of National Intelligence, the FBI director all testifying to

1466
01:17:19,880 --> 01:17:22,760
Speaker 31: that under oath and they should be trusted with that.

1467
01:17:22,840 --> 01:17:25,120
Speaker 34: So nuclear Americans can make the decision for themselves. But

1468
01:17:25,240 --> 01:17:28,599
Speaker 34: whether it's that you said, you said it's not war plans.

1469
01:17:28,880 --> 01:17:34,720
Speaker 34: Would you characterize these as military plans military operation plans?

1470
01:17:34,800 --> 01:17:38,439
Speaker 31: I would characterize this messaging thread as a policy discussion,

1471
01:17:38,479 --> 01:17:42,680
Speaker 31: a sensitive policy discussion, surely amongst high level cabinet officials

1472
01:17:42,680 --> 01:17:45,479
Speaker 31: and senior staff. And I'm so glad Peter that you

1473
01:17:45,560 --> 01:17:48,400
Speaker 31: said the American public can decide for themselves, because I

1474
01:17:48,439 --> 01:17:51,200
Speaker 31: think the American public should decide them for themselves based

1475
01:17:51,200 --> 01:17:54,120
Speaker 31: on the outcome of this operation and what happened in

1476
01:17:54,120 --> 01:17:57,519
Speaker 31: this operation. Terrorists that were allowed to run wild by

1477
01:17:57,560 --> 01:18:01,080
Speaker 31: the Biden administration were killed because of the direction in

1478
01:18:01,120 --> 01:18:04,640
Speaker 31: the determination of this president and his team. And this

1479
01:18:04,720 --> 01:18:08,759
Speaker 31: message also shows. This messaging thread also proved that President

1480
01:18:08,760 --> 01:18:12,800
Speaker 31: Trump has an incredibly dynamic team who is working incredibly hard,

1481
01:18:13,040 --> 01:18:16,240
Speaker 31: flying all over the world to secure world peace and

1482
01:18:16,320 --> 01:18:20,000
Speaker 31: to fix up the foreign policy crises that the previous

1483
01:18:20,000 --> 01:18:22,280
Speaker 31: administration left for this team to inherit it.

1484
01:18:22,360 --> 01:18:23,760
Speaker 34: So to be clear, we all in this room and

1485
01:18:23,760 --> 01:18:26,080
Speaker 34: around the country would agree that we're glad no American

1486
01:18:26,160 --> 01:18:28,400
Speaker 34: service members were harmed, and we're glad that the mission

1487
01:18:28,760 --> 01:18:31,320
Speaker 34: was a success. Will stipulate that. But the president said

1488
01:18:31,320 --> 01:18:34,080
Speaker 34: that Pete Hegseth said none of this was classified. So,

1489
01:18:34,160 --> 01:18:36,320
Speaker 34: given the President has seen it now, and given the

1490
01:18:36,320 --> 01:18:41,479
Speaker 34: President understands that significant military plans are deemed classified as secret,

1491
01:18:41,840 --> 01:18:44,639
Speaker 34: how does the President view none of this, which details

1492
01:18:44,960 --> 01:18:49,600
Speaker 34: times and weapons and more, as being not classified.

1493
01:18:49,680 --> 01:18:52,600
Speaker 31: I've already been asked and answered this question. The President's

1494
01:18:52,720 --> 01:18:55,840
Speaker 31: thoughts on this remain the same today as they were yesterday,

1495
01:18:56,400 --> 01:18:59,400
Speaker 31: as well as the Secretary of Defense. This question has

1496
01:18:59,439 --> 01:19:03,479
Speaker 31: been asked. There was no classified material discouvered jackets, So

1497
01:19:03,479 --> 01:19:04,000
Speaker 31: go ahead.

1498
01:19:03,800 --> 01:19:10,840
Speaker 32: Jackiety Caroline, So why aren't launch times on a mission

1499
01:19:10,880 --> 01:19:12,000
Speaker 32: Striketh classified?

1500
01:19:12,200 --> 01:19:14,360
Speaker 31: Again, I would defer you to the Secretary of Defense's

1501
01:19:14,400 --> 01:19:17,120
Speaker 31: statement he put out this morning. There were various reasons.

1502
01:19:17,120 --> 01:19:19,799
Speaker 31: He listed things that were not included in that messaging

1503
01:19:19,840 --> 01:19:22,320
Speaker 31: thread that were not classified. And again going back to

1504
01:19:22,320 --> 01:19:25,360
Speaker 31: the American public, do you trust the Secretary of Defense,

1505
01:19:25,600 --> 01:19:28,120
Speaker 31: who was nominated for this role, voted by the United

1506
01:19:28,120 --> 01:19:30,839
Speaker 31: States Senate into this role, who has served in combat,

1507
01:19:30,880 --> 01:19:33,599
Speaker 31: honorably served our nation in uniform, or do you trust

1508
01:19:33,640 --> 01:19:36,839
Speaker 31: Jeffrey Goldberg, who is a registered Democrat and an anti

1509
01:19:36,880 --> 01:19:40,880
Speaker 31: Trump sensationalist reporter. This president and this national security team

1510
01:19:40,920 --> 01:19:44,719
Speaker 31: are putting our national security and the American people first.

1511
01:19:44,760 --> 01:19:47,640
Speaker 31: We are restoring American strength around the world, and the

1512
01:19:47,680 --> 01:19:49,679
Speaker 31: results of this operation speak for themselves.

1513
01:19:49,720 --> 01:19:52,320
Speaker 32: Want to get Chuck Jeffrey Goldberg, though, just for you know,

1514
01:19:52,520 --> 01:19:54,519
Speaker 32: for American service members who are going to have to

1515
01:19:54,520 --> 01:19:58,639
Speaker 32: carry out these missions in the future. What I guess

1516
01:19:58,680 --> 01:20:01,640
Speaker 32: the message that's coming from the response to all this

1517
01:20:01,760 --> 01:20:05,439
Speaker 32: that we're hearing is that, you know, nothing sensitive happened.

1518
01:20:05,920 --> 01:20:08,479
Speaker 32: And I guess the logical conclusion of that is that

1519
01:20:08,560 --> 01:20:14,160
Speaker 32: if these messages had gone out publicly prior to the launch,

1520
01:20:14,400 --> 01:20:17,120
Speaker 32: that that wouldn't have been a risk to service members.

1521
01:20:17,120 --> 01:20:18,920
Speaker 32: I don't know that they're comfortable with that, So can

1522
01:20:18,960 --> 01:20:24,280
Speaker 32: you explain, you know, had these messages been published, would

1523
01:20:24,360 --> 01:20:26,599
Speaker 32: the plans have moved forward?

1524
01:20:26,600 --> 01:20:28,200
Speaker 2: Would the launch have still taken off?

1525
01:20:28,240 --> 01:20:30,280
Speaker 31: What I can tell you is that the President, as

1526
01:20:30,320 --> 01:20:32,879
Speaker 31: the commander in chief of our United States Armed Forces,

1527
01:20:33,200 --> 01:20:36,720
Speaker 31: and Secretary Pete Hegseth, who is an incredible man and

1528
01:20:36,760 --> 01:20:40,120
Speaker 31: a war fighter himself, take the lives of our American

1529
01:20:40,160 --> 01:20:43,720
Speaker 31: service members with the utmost responsibility and they would never

1530
01:20:43,840 --> 01:20:48,360
Speaker 31: do anything intentionally to put the their lives at risk.

1531
01:20:49,000 --> 01:20:51,519
Speaker 31: And again, they are working hard on that every single day,

1532
01:20:51,760 --> 01:20:54,919
Speaker 31: and we are protecting our service members while also restoring

1533
01:20:54,960 --> 01:20:58,920
Speaker 31: peace throughout this globe. It's something the previous administration has

1534
01:20:58,960 --> 01:21:01,479
Speaker 31: not done. And I would just add one more point.

1535
01:21:02,160 --> 01:21:05,120
Speaker 31: We are not going to be lectured about national security

1536
01:21:05,760 --> 01:21:09,439
Speaker 31: and American troops by Democrats in the mainstream media who

1537
01:21:09,520 --> 01:21:12,880
Speaker 31: turned the other cheek when the Biden administration, because of

1538
01:21:12,920 --> 01:21:17,000
Speaker 31: their incompetence, left thirteen service members dead in Afghanistan, and

1539
01:21:17,040 --> 01:21:20,160
Speaker 31: not a single person in the previous administration was held

1540
01:21:20,200 --> 01:21:24,160
Speaker 31: accountable for that botched withdrawal. Joe Biden said, in fact,

1541
01:21:24,200 --> 01:21:28,080
Speaker 31: it was a great operation. That is despicable. It's unacceptable

1542
01:21:28,080 --> 01:21:30,920
Speaker 31: to this president, in this Secretary of Defense, the National

1543
01:21:30,960 --> 01:21:34,599
Speaker 31: Security Advisor has taken responsibility for this inadvertent number being

1544
01:21:34,640 --> 01:21:37,599
Speaker 31: added to the messaging thread. But above all, we take

1545
01:21:37,640 --> 01:21:40,840
Speaker 31: the lives of our troops, safety, security, prosperity around the

1546
01:21:40,840 --> 01:21:43,400
Speaker 31: globe with the utmost seriousness Ohlberg's intentions.

1547
01:21:43,680 --> 01:21:46,480
Speaker 32: Do you believe Jenniferhead released that to embarrass the administration

1548
01:21:46,520 --> 01:21:47,760
Speaker 32: ahead of the worldwide.

1549
01:21:47,360 --> 01:21:48,679
Speaker 31: Threats Jennifer, go ahead.

1550
01:21:49,160 --> 01:21:52,280
Speaker 33: Given what you've said about the President's trust in his

1551
01:21:52,400 --> 01:21:55,760
Speaker 33: national security team, can you say definitively that no one

1552
01:21:55,800 --> 01:21:58,200
Speaker 33: will lose their jobs, No one will lose their job

1553
01:21:58,240 --> 01:22:00,000
Speaker 33: at all because of this signal situation.

1554
01:22:00,120 --> 01:22:02,280
Speaker 31: What I can say definitively is what I just spoke

1555
01:22:02,320 --> 01:22:04,879
Speaker 31: to the President about, and he continues to have confidence

1556
01:22:04,880 --> 01:22:06,240
Speaker 31: in his national security team.

1557
01:22:07,720 --> 01:22:10,880
Speaker 35: One market, that's one working on the targets in Yemen

1558
01:22:11,080 --> 01:22:14,519
Speaker 35: on March fifteenth. Can you say we're one hundred percent

1559
01:22:14,560 --> 01:22:18,080
Speaker 35: of the targets that were planned for March fifteenth where

1560
01:22:18,120 --> 01:22:20,559
Speaker 35: they all destroyed, because that would be an indication if

1561
01:22:21,120 --> 01:22:22,840
Speaker 35: some of them were moved, but they were not all hit,

1562
01:22:22,960 --> 01:22:25,880
Speaker 35: that maybe perhaps some of the enemies were able to

1563
01:22:25,920 --> 01:22:27,439
Speaker 35: get some of the information in that singles.

1564
01:22:27,640 --> 01:22:29,800
Speaker 31: What I can say about the operation is what the

1565
01:22:29,840 --> 01:22:32,040
Speaker 31: Department of Defense has put out there. I would refer

1566
01:22:32,120 --> 01:22:35,720
Speaker 31: to them for any further operational details. But there have

1567
01:22:35,840 --> 01:22:39,639
Speaker 31: been more than one hundred strikes conducted against Toothy targets

1568
01:22:40,120 --> 01:22:44,040
Speaker 31: and they have hit key Hoothy leaders, air defense systems,

1569
01:22:44,040 --> 01:22:48,760
Speaker 31: commanding control nodes, headquarters, weapons manufacturing and storage facilities. And

1570
01:22:48,800 --> 01:22:52,200
Speaker 31: these operations will continue until the freedom of navigation in

1571
01:22:52,240 --> 01:22:55,920
Speaker 31: our seas is restored and US shipping can safely transmit

1572
01:22:56,000 --> 01:22:58,760
Speaker 31: without the fear of attack. And again, we believe that

1573
01:22:58,800 --> 01:23:01,240
Speaker 31: this has been a very success full operation thus far,

1574
01:23:01,479 --> 01:23:04,360
Speaker 31: and it will continue until this administration feels it no

1575
01:23:04,439 --> 01:23:06,840
Speaker 31: longer has to. And these terrorists have been taking out

1576
01:23:06,880 --> 01:23:09,720
Speaker 31: which again is something the previous administration should have done,

1577
01:23:09,760 --> 01:23:11,839
Speaker 31: but they didn't, and now we've inherited this crisis.

1578
01:23:12,080 --> 01:23:13,719
Speaker 12: Stevener, thank you, Carline.

1579
01:23:13,760 --> 01:23:16,599
Speaker 36: I'd like to clarify something about the investigation and also

1580
01:23:16,600 --> 01:23:20,960
Speaker 36: asking conservative commentary on the investigation. Mike Waltz said last

1581
01:23:21,040 --> 01:23:24,160
Speaker 36: night that he had spoken to Elon Musk about figuring

1582
01:23:24,200 --> 01:23:27,240
Speaker 36: out how Jeffrey Goldberg's number got in his phone. You

1583
01:23:27,280 --> 01:23:29,920
Speaker 36: mentioned the NSC and the White House Council's Office investigating.

1584
01:23:30,280 --> 01:23:33,360
Speaker 36: You just clarify who is investigating, who's leading that? And

1585
01:23:33,479 --> 01:23:39,120
Speaker 36: also Dave Portnoy, who endorsed President Trump, said today that

1586
01:23:39,160 --> 01:23:41,000
Speaker 36: he thinks that Mike Waltz should leave.

1587
01:23:41,400 --> 01:23:42,360
Speaker 7: Could you respond to that?

1588
01:23:43,479 --> 01:23:47,320
Speaker 31: Sure, great respect for Dave Portnoy, but I just answered

1589
01:23:47,320 --> 01:23:50,800
Speaker 31: that previous question from Jennifer. As for your original question

1590
01:23:50,840 --> 01:23:55,160
Speaker 31: about who's leading looking into the messaging thread, the National

1591
01:23:55,160 --> 01:23:58,320
Speaker 31: Security Council, the White House Counsel's Office, and also yes,

1592
01:23:58,479 --> 01:24:01,080
Speaker 31: Elon Musk's team. Elon Musk has offered to put his

1593
01:24:01,200 --> 01:24:04,559
Speaker 31: technical experts on this to figure out how this number

1594
01:24:04,600 --> 01:24:07,640
Speaker 31: was inadvertently added to the chat again, to take responsibility

1595
01:24:07,640 --> 01:24:10,599
Speaker 31: and ensure this can never happen again. Carolinaitlyn, I have

1596
01:24:10,600 --> 01:24:12,559
Speaker 31: two questions. One on a follow up on something you

1597
01:24:12,680 --> 01:24:13,080
Speaker 31: just said.

1598
01:24:13,120 --> 01:24:15,320
Speaker 37: But since we have these messages released and you said

1599
01:24:15,360 --> 01:24:18,280
Speaker 37: that the President has now personally reviewed them.

1600
01:24:18,720 --> 01:24:19,320
Speaker 31: At the chat.

1601
01:24:19,520 --> 01:24:22,639
Speaker 37: At one point, Pete, he said, wrote fourteen fifteen strike

1602
01:24:22,680 --> 01:24:25,040
Speaker 37: drones on target, and in all caps, he said, this

1603
01:24:25,200 --> 01:24:28,519
Speaker 37: is when the first bombs will definitely drop. Does the

1604
01:24:28,560 --> 01:24:31,719
Speaker 37: President feel that he was misled by his national security

1605
01:24:31,720 --> 01:24:33,600
Speaker 37: advisors whoever it was that told him there was no

1606
01:24:33,680 --> 01:24:36,800
Speaker 37: classified information in there, now that he's seen these messages.

1607
01:24:36,520 --> 01:24:39,280
Speaker 31: I've now been asked and answer this question three times

1608
01:24:39,280 --> 01:24:41,439
Speaker 31: by the both of you, and I've given you my answer.

1609
01:24:41,520 --> 01:24:44,040
Speaker 31: The President feels the same today as he did yesterday.

1610
01:24:44,040 --> 01:24:45,720
Speaker 31: So I'm sorry I might follow up on what you

1611
01:24:45,720 --> 01:24:49,040
Speaker 31: would go ahead, Philip, Caitlyn. I'm not taking your follow up, Philip.

1612
01:24:49,160 --> 01:24:51,040
Speaker 31: I've a follow on something you just said, though, Caroline

1613
01:24:51,040 --> 01:24:54,400
Speaker 31: that's Caitlin. I'm not taking your follow up, Philip, go ahead,

1614
01:24:54,439 --> 01:24:55,080
Speaker 31: I have called on you.

1615
01:24:55,320 --> 01:24:57,639
Speaker 38: They had a vice president seemed to express some frustration

1616
01:24:57,760 --> 01:25:00,879
Speaker 38: that Erek wasn't doing more police waterway in their backyard,

1617
01:25:01,040 --> 01:25:05,040
Speaker 38: noting in the signal thread that of European trade goes

1618
01:25:05,080 --> 01:25:08,879
Speaker 38: through this USK. Now does the President share that opinion

1619
01:25:08,880 --> 01:25:12,599
Speaker 38: and frustration and then going forward, should the Europeans be

1620
01:25:12,680 --> 01:25:14,439
Speaker 38: responsible for policing that waterway?

1621
01:25:14,600 --> 01:25:17,120
Speaker 31: Well, the President was asked this question yesterday by the

1622
01:25:17,160 --> 01:25:19,479
Speaker 31: pool in the Cabinet room, and he answered this question.

1623
01:25:19,600 --> 01:25:22,880
Speaker 31: He said, yes, he believes that Europe has been, as

1624
01:25:23,280 --> 01:25:25,920
Speaker 31: the Vice President put it, free loading on the backs

1625
01:25:25,960 --> 01:25:28,719
Speaker 31: of American taxpayers and off the backs of the United

1626
01:25:28,760 --> 01:25:31,519
Speaker 31: States of America, and he wants to ensure that Europe

1627
01:25:31,520 --> 01:25:33,920
Speaker 31: pays their fair share. He's always been very honest and

1628
01:25:34,000 --> 01:25:36,639
Speaker 31: upfront about that, and I think the Vice President shares

1629
01:25:36,640 --> 01:25:38,440
Speaker 31: those concerns with him as well.

1630
01:25:38,760 --> 01:25:44,920
Speaker 38: Sure, you know enlisted soldiers, sailors and marines would face

1631
01:25:44,960 --> 01:25:49,760
Speaker 38: consequences if they shared this type of information inadvertently with

1632
01:25:49,840 --> 01:25:50,400
Speaker 38: a reporter.

1633
01:25:51,160 --> 01:25:52,240
Speaker 10: Can you tell us more.

1634
01:25:52,160 --> 01:25:54,920
Speaker 38: Why the President is so willing to give Mike Waltz

1635
01:25:55,000 --> 01:25:55,960
Speaker 38: a mulligan.

1636
01:25:55,600 --> 01:25:58,200
Speaker 31: Here again, I have now been asked and answered the

1637
01:25:58,240 --> 01:26:01,800
Speaker 31: same question using different language multiple times. If anybody has

1638
01:26:01,840 --> 01:26:03,960
Speaker 31: another question, There's a lot of different things going on

1639
01:26:03,960 --> 01:26:07,800
Speaker 31: in the world. We have tariffs possibly being implemented later today.

1640
01:26:07,840 --> 01:26:09,479
Speaker 31: The President is going to talk about that at four

1641
01:26:09,520 --> 01:26:10,560
Speaker 31: o'clock this afternoon.

1642
01:26:10,640 --> 01:26:11,160
Speaker 20: Integrity.

1643
01:26:12,760 --> 01:26:14,640
Speaker 39: Okay, thank you for taking my question. I wanted to

1644
01:26:14,960 --> 01:26:17,760
Speaker 39: first and foremost think the administration for the Election Integrity

1645
01:26:18,280 --> 01:26:21,320
Speaker 39: Executive Order because so many journalists for four years were

1646
01:26:21,320 --> 01:26:23,559
Speaker 39: banned from talking about this very subject. So thank you

1647
01:26:23,600 --> 01:26:27,400
Speaker 39: to the administration for that. My question is yesterday President

1648
01:26:27,439 --> 01:26:29,280
Speaker 39: Trumplin sign and the order said that there is more

1649
01:26:29,320 --> 01:26:32,440
Speaker 39: to come when it comes to election integrity. Would that

1650
01:26:32,520 --> 01:26:37,000
Speaker 39: include same day voting and hand counted paper ballots? And

1651
01:26:37,240 --> 01:26:42,679
Speaker 39: why are Democrats so against election integrity measures like obviously

1652
01:26:42,800 --> 01:26:45,280
Speaker 39: group of citizenship when it comes to voting in the

1653
01:26:45,439 --> 01:26:46,400
Speaker 39: United States election?

1654
01:26:46,560 --> 01:26:48,320
Speaker 31: Well, it's a very good question. You'll have to ask

1655
01:26:48,360 --> 01:26:50,960
Speaker 31: the Democrats why they're against so many common sense things,

1656
01:26:51,000 --> 01:26:53,760
Speaker 31: not just mandating voter id Why are they against men

1657
01:26:53,800 --> 01:26:57,400
Speaker 31: and women's sports, Why are they against deporting foreign terrorists

1658
01:26:57,439 --> 01:27:01,360
Speaker 31: from American soil who have been designated a foreign terrorist organization?

1659
01:27:01,400 --> 01:27:04,479
Speaker 31: I'm referring to trendy Aragua. As for the Election Integrity

1660
01:27:04,520 --> 01:27:07,320
Speaker 31: Executive Order that the President signed yesterday, this is in

1661
01:27:07,360 --> 01:27:10,559
Speaker 31: an effort to restore trust in American elections. There were

1662
01:27:10,600 --> 01:27:13,719
Speaker 31: more than ten steps taken, ten executive actions taken throughout

1663
01:27:13,760 --> 01:27:17,080
Speaker 31: this one order. It directs the Department or the Attorney

1664
01:27:17,120 --> 01:27:20,519
Speaker 31: General rather in Homeland Security to prevent non citizens from

1665
01:27:20,520 --> 01:27:24,320
Speaker 31: any involvement and administering elections. There's also another host of actions.

1666
01:27:24,439 --> 01:27:26,120
Speaker 31: We can provide the fact sheet for you, but it's

1667
01:27:26,120 --> 01:27:29,759
Speaker 31: a very strong Election Integrity Executive Order and the President

1668
01:27:29,760 --> 01:27:31,960
Speaker 31: would also like to see Congress do something about this

1669
01:27:32,080 --> 01:27:36,200
Speaker 31: very important issue. Sure go ahead, Caroline.

1670
01:27:36,280 --> 01:27:40,320
Speaker 40: The Republicans and Democrats alike have been expressing some concern

1671
01:27:40,400 --> 01:27:43,559
Speaker 40: about the frequency of which senior Trump officials have been

1672
01:27:43,640 --> 01:27:46,840
Speaker 40: using this Signal app. Has there been discussion or what

1673
01:27:46,920 --> 01:27:49,920
Speaker 40: there'll be a review about how often they use Signal

1674
01:27:50,000 --> 01:27:53,559
Speaker 40: And if you could explain to us how they might

1675
01:27:53,640 --> 01:27:57,880
Speaker 40: be considering other applications to get away from something like

1676
01:27:57,920 --> 01:27:58,800
Speaker 40: this happening again?

1677
01:27:58,920 --> 01:27:59,160
Speaker 11: Sure?

1678
01:27:59,200 --> 01:28:02,000
Speaker 31: Well again. First of all, Signal has been an approved

1679
01:28:02,040 --> 01:28:04,720
Speaker 31: app for government use. It's an encryptive app, and as

1680
01:28:04,720 --> 01:28:09,000
Speaker 31: I said, it's the most safe and efficient way of communicating,

1681
01:28:09,120 --> 01:28:12,519
Speaker 31: especially when people can't be in a skiff or inside

1682
01:28:12,520 --> 01:28:15,800
Speaker 31: a room physically together. I think, as the President said yesterday,

1683
01:28:16,120 --> 01:28:18,320
Speaker 31: he wishes that everybody could be in the room, and

1684
01:28:18,360 --> 01:28:21,960
Speaker 31: it's our goal to ensure that everybody can be. But again,

1685
01:28:22,160 --> 01:28:24,960
Speaker 31: no classified information was discussed in this chat. In any

1686
01:28:25,040 --> 01:28:29,040
Speaker 31: time classified information is discussed amongst high level officials across

1687
01:28:29,040 --> 01:28:33,599
Speaker 31: this administration, secure lines of communication are used, including by

1688
01:28:33,640 --> 01:28:37,559
Speaker 31: the way, our Special Envoy Steve Whitcoff, who I understand,

1689
01:28:37,600 --> 01:28:40,800
Speaker 31: the Wall Street Journal erroneously reported that he was on

1690
01:28:40,840 --> 01:28:43,439
Speaker 31: this signal chat on a personal device while in Moscow.

1691
01:28:43,520 --> 01:28:47,040
Speaker 31: That is absolutely false. Steve Whitcoff did not have his

1692
01:28:47,120 --> 01:28:49,920
Speaker 31: personal device, nor did he have his government device with him.

1693
01:28:50,080 --> 01:28:54,120
Speaker 31: He was given a classified protected server by the United

1694
01:28:54,160 --> 01:28:57,800
Speaker 31: States government, and he was very careful about his communications

1695
01:28:57,840 --> 01:28:59,760
Speaker 31: when he was in Russia. So rest asshured to them,

1696
01:28:59,800 --> 01:29:03,920
Speaker 31: Maria and public. This administration is taking every precaution when

1697
01:29:03,920 --> 01:29:06,720
Speaker 31: it comes to protecting our national security. And that's why

1698
01:29:06,720 --> 01:29:09,280
Speaker 31: the American people re elected this president, because they know

1699
01:29:09,360 --> 01:29:11,680
Speaker 31: that our national security is in good hands with the

1700
01:29:12,160 --> 01:29:15,000
Speaker 31: President of the United States. Speaking of the Vice President,

1701
01:29:15,000 --> 01:29:17,880
Speaker 31: I understand he's going to be speaking any moment now,

1702
01:29:17,920 --> 01:29:20,160
Speaker 31: I would hate to counter program the Vice president of

1703
01:29:20,160 --> 01:29:22,519
Speaker 31: the United States. You'll also hear from the President at

1704
01:29:22,600 --> 01:29:25,080
Speaker 31: three o'clock. He will be honoring women's history at the

1705
01:29:25,120 --> 01:29:27,639
Speaker 31: Women's History Month celebration. We have a lot of great

1706
01:29:27,640 --> 01:29:30,680
Speaker 31: women across our cabinet who will be in attendance, so

1707
01:29:30,720 --> 01:29:32,200
Speaker 31: we'll see you all there. And then you'll also hear

1708
01:29:32,240 --> 01:29:34,840
Speaker 31: from the President again at four o'clock when he talks

1709
01:29:34,840 --> 01:29:37,400
Speaker 31: about tariff. So plenty of time for more questions. Sorry,

1710
01:29:37,400 --> 01:29:40,720
Speaker 31: it's a bit shorter today, guys. We'll see you later.

1711
01:29:42,400 --> 01:29:44,840
Speaker 22: That was White House Press Secretary Caroline Levitt with the

1712
01:29:44,920 --> 01:29:47,719
Speaker 22: latest press briefing to the media. Of course, still lots

1713
01:29:47,720 --> 01:29:50,760
Speaker 22: of talks about the signal debacle. She mentioned it and

1714
01:29:50,800 --> 01:29:54,439
Speaker 22: talked about it in pretty good detail. All right, folks,

1715
01:29:54,520 --> 01:29:56,120
Speaker 22: that's going to do it for us. Now, let's get

1716
01:29:56,120 --> 01:29:58,080
Speaker 22: you back to the Charlie Kirkshow.

1717
01:29:58,160 --> 01:30:01,439
Speaker 23: This has been a love special. We now join our

1718
01:30:01,479 --> 01:30:03,280
Speaker 23: programming already in progress.

1719
01:30:03,360 --> 01:30:05,880
Speaker 41: How did my child turn into this, you know, brainwashed

1720
01:30:05,920 --> 01:30:09,040
Speaker 41: social justice warrior. Well, it's because you haven't engaged your

1721
01:30:09,080 --> 01:30:11,759
Speaker 41: children's minds when they were younger. And that's what Tuttle

1722
01:30:11,800 --> 01:30:14,000
Speaker 41: Twins is trying to do to help parents engage their

1723
01:30:14,040 --> 01:30:17,680
Speaker 41: children with these ideas in a simplified, fun way, so

1724
01:30:17,680 --> 01:30:19,479
Speaker 41: as they then go off to college or get on

1725
01:30:19,520 --> 01:30:21,880
Speaker 41: with their life, they've got a foundation of true principles

1726
01:30:21,880 --> 01:30:22,400
Speaker 41: to rest on.

1727
01:30:23,200 --> 01:30:26,400
Speaker 24: And the popularity of it is growing right now. Everyone

1728
01:30:26,439 --> 01:30:29,120
Speaker 24: could check it out at tuttle twins dot com slash Charlie,

1729
01:30:29,200 --> 01:30:30,960
Speaker 24: I'm going to buy a bunch of these for my kids.

1730
01:30:31,000 --> 01:30:34,559
Speaker 24: Finding good kids books is very, very hard. In fact,

1731
01:30:34,680 --> 01:30:37,160
Speaker 24: you know, we went to Barnes and Noble recently and

1732
01:30:37,200 --> 01:30:40,040
Speaker 24: our daughter just loves buying all the books and it's

1733
01:30:40,120 --> 01:30:42,640
Speaker 24: very funny. She has great instincts. She went up to

1734
01:30:42,640 --> 01:30:45,200
Speaker 24: one of the books and it was like a homosexual

1735
01:30:45,200 --> 01:30:47,760
Speaker 24: couple and she looked at it. She said, that's not

1736
01:30:47,920 --> 01:30:49,920
Speaker 24: right and she put it back down. It was like

1737
01:30:50,040 --> 01:30:51,800
Speaker 24: kind of like we want you to be gay or

1738
01:30:51,880 --> 01:30:54,559
Speaker 24: some And this is a kid's book. I mean again,

1739
01:30:54,600 --> 01:30:57,439
Speaker 24: everyone in the audience kind of your own views of marriage,

1740
01:30:57,479 --> 01:30:59,960
Speaker 24: but for a kid to have to be forced upon

1741
01:31:00,080 --> 01:31:04,639
Speaker 24: on her intuition is amazing. And so talk about how

1742
01:31:05,160 --> 01:31:11,599
Speaker 24: you are incorporating these beautiful ideas liberty, family friendly, non

1743
01:31:11,840 --> 01:31:15,000
Speaker 24: let's just say pornographic elements in a way that kids

1744
01:31:15,080 --> 01:31:16,400
Speaker 24: actually want to read it.

1745
01:31:16,439 --> 01:31:17,720
Speaker 12: This is not a textbook.

1746
01:31:17,960 --> 01:31:22,000
Speaker 24: This is not just giving them Milton Friedman's Capitalism and freedom,

1747
01:31:22,360 --> 01:31:25,439
Speaker 24: but it is those ideas distilled in a digestible way

1748
01:31:25,439 --> 01:31:25,960
Speaker 24: for a child.

1749
01:31:26,960 --> 01:31:29,879
Speaker 41: Well, I think you raise an interesting point with your

1750
01:31:29,960 --> 01:31:33,519
Speaker 41: personal story that children are being bombarded with these types

1751
01:31:33,520 --> 01:31:36,320
Speaker 41: of ideas now. And when we started doing The Tuttle

1752
01:31:36,320 --> 01:31:39,719
Speaker 41: Twins in twenty fourteen is when we published our first book.

1753
01:31:39,920 --> 01:31:43,200
Speaker 41: We had a lot of conservatives and libertarians and others say, wait, wait,

1754
01:31:43,280 --> 01:31:45,320
Speaker 41: let kids be kids. We don't need to talk to

1755
01:31:45,360 --> 01:31:48,200
Speaker 41: them about these big adult ideas. We can wait until

1756
01:31:48,200 --> 01:31:50,679
Speaker 41: they're getting close to voting age. And so we got

1757
01:31:50,680 --> 01:31:53,880
Speaker 41: pushback even from our own tribe for doing children's books

1758
01:31:53,920 --> 01:31:57,559
Speaker 41: talking about these big adult ideas. Of course, going through

1759
01:31:57,600 --> 01:32:00,439
Speaker 41: the crazy BLM and DEI and all the stuff that

1760
01:32:00,439 --> 01:32:02,800
Speaker 41: we have in the past few years, nobody on our

1761
01:32:02,840 --> 01:32:05,080
Speaker 41: side talks that way anymore because they see what the

1762
01:32:05,160 --> 01:32:08,760
Speaker 41: left is doing, that they have just this cacophony of

1763
01:32:09,200 --> 01:32:13,000
Speaker 41: content that they're pushing out, whether it's cartoons or books

1764
01:32:13,120 --> 01:32:16,439
Speaker 41: or online stuff. And so now I think increasingly parents

1765
01:32:16,479 --> 01:32:21,680
Speaker 41: recognize whoa my children's mind is like ground zero in

1766
01:32:21,800 --> 01:32:25,960
Speaker 41: an ideological battlefield. And if I don't give my child

1767
01:32:26,200 --> 01:32:29,439
Speaker 41: armor and weaponry and knowledge of the enemy, then my

1768
01:32:29,560 --> 01:32:32,040
Speaker 41: child will become a casualty. And so we live in

1769
01:32:32,080 --> 01:32:34,240
Speaker 41: a world where we can't just assume that we can

1770
01:32:34,280 --> 01:32:36,960
Speaker 41: talk to our kids later about these ideas. We need

1771
01:32:37,000 --> 01:32:39,800
Speaker 41: to engage them. Frankly, we need to compete for their

1772
01:32:39,840 --> 01:32:44,439
Speaker 41: hearts and minds because they're being attracted and exposed by

1773
01:32:44,479 --> 01:32:48,040
Speaker 41: so many hostile ideas. Parents often have been caught in

1774
01:32:48,120 --> 01:32:50,840
Speaker 41: a trap because I'll tell you, Charlie, the biggest problem

1775
01:32:50,880 --> 01:32:53,759
Speaker 41: we run into is freedom, love and moms and dads

1776
01:32:54,080 --> 01:32:56,960
Speaker 41: who do want their kids to learn these ideas, but

1777
01:32:57,200 --> 01:33:01,040
Speaker 41: they the parents feel ill equipped to explain and teach

1778
01:33:01,160 --> 01:33:04,800
Speaker 41: these ideas to their kids. They feel the parents increasingly

1779
01:33:04,840 --> 01:33:06,200
Speaker 41: that well, I don't know how to talk to my

1780
01:33:06,280 --> 01:33:08,920
Speaker 41: kids about economics or history. I did bad at that

1781
01:33:09,040 --> 01:33:10,360
Speaker 41: subject in school.

1782
01:33:10,439 --> 01:33:14,000
Speaker 23: Right toward, we're interrupting this program for a special live report.

1783
01:33:14,560 --> 01:33:17,479
Speaker 22: It's a busy day for the Trump administration. Vice President JD.

1784
01:33:17,600 --> 01:33:19,479
Speaker 22: Van speaking at Chuannico right now.

1785
01:33:19,560 --> 01:33:20,320
Speaker 15: Let's listen in.

1786
01:33:20,400 --> 01:33:24,280
Speaker 42: We're excited to celebrate the Marine Corps two hundred and

1787
01:33:24,320 --> 01:33:28,040
Speaker 42: fiftieth anniversary, two hundred and fifty years of winn wars,

1788
01:33:28,080 --> 01:33:30,679
Speaker 42: two hundred and fifty years of kicking ass and taking names.

1789
01:33:33,400 --> 01:33:36,000
Speaker 42: So here's the basic plan. Here's what we're going to do.

1790
01:33:36,280 --> 01:33:38,800
Speaker 42: We're going to invest in the Marine Corps in the

1791
01:33:38,960 --> 01:33:43,120
Speaker 42: entire United States military like we never have before, over

1792
01:33:43,160 --> 01:33:46,200
Speaker 42: a trillion dollars. We're going to invest in building up

1793
01:33:46,280 --> 01:33:49,400
Speaker 42: the manufacturing base of this country so that you guys,

1794
01:33:49,479 --> 01:33:51,640
Speaker 42: when you do go to war, when you have to

1795
01:33:51,640 --> 01:33:54,400
Speaker 42: go to war, you've got the best weapons anywhere in

1796
01:33:54,439 --> 01:33:56,960
Speaker 42: the world. We know from the long history of the

1797
01:33:57,040 --> 01:33:59,800
Speaker 42: United States of America that while the leading edge of

1798
01:33:59,840 --> 01:34:03,120
Speaker 42: the American power is you all, it really matters what

1799
01:34:03,160 --> 01:34:05,599
Speaker 42: you guys have in your hands and what you guys

1800
01:34:05,640 --> 01:34:07,080
Speaker 42: have on your backs when you go to war.

1801
01:34:07,400 --> 01:34:07,840
Speaker 9: And so I.

1802
01:34:07,840 --> 01:34:10,479
Speaker 42: Promised you from the President of the United States, we

1803
01:34:10,520 --> 01:34:12,479
Speaker 42: are going to send you, if we have to send

1804
01:34:12,479 --> 01:34:15,720
Speaker 42: you to war, with the best equipment, the best ammunition,

1805
01:34:16,120 --> 01:34:18,680
Speaker 42: the best weapons, and we are going to empower you

1806
01:34:18,720 --> 01:34:21,840
Speaker 42: guys to win when you have to. That's the purpose

1807
01:34:21,880 --> 01:34:23,400
Speaker 42: of the United States Marine Corps, all right.

1808
01:34:25,720 --> 01:34:27,120
Speaker 12: So that's what we're going to do.

1809
01:34:27,160 --> 01:34:29,080
Speaker 42: And of course I got some good news. You know,

1810
01:34:29,320 --> 01:34:32,240
Speaker 42: over the last few years, some of the military branches

1811
01:34:32,360 --> 01:34:34,920
Speaker 42: had some recruitment problems, not the Marine Corps. Actually, the

1812
01:34:34,920 --> 01:34:37,920
Speaker 42: Marine Corps was the one branch that consistently met its

1813
01:34:37,920 --> 01:34:40,000
Speaker 42: recruitment goals, and that probably has something to do with

1814
01:34:40,040 --> 01:34:41,599
Speaker 42: the fact that the Marine Corps.

1815
01:34:41,439 --> 01:34:43,120
Speaker 12: A little bit smaller, as you all know.

1816
01:34:43,960 --> 01:34:48,599
Speaker 42: But this year now, we have got every single branch

1817
01:34:48,640 --> 01:34:51,040
Speaker 42: of the United States Military for the past two months

1818
01:34:51,040 --> 01:34:53,800
Speaker 42: has been meeting its recruitment goals. Because I think I

1819
01:34:53,960 --> 01:34:56,519
Speaker 42: see and I see in your faces what we're seeing

1820
01:34:56,560 --> 01:35:00,439
Speaker 42: all across the country. A renewed sense of patriotism, renewed

1821
01:35:00,479 --> 01:35:03,120
Speaker 42: commitment to excellence, and that is what is going to

1822
01:35:03,160 --> 01:35:06,400
Speaker 42: make the United States Military the strongest fighting force anywhere

1823
01:35:06,400 --> 01:35:08,720
Speaker 42: in the world. So thank you all, Thank you for

1824
01:35:08,760 --> 01:35:10,880
Speaker 42: being part of it. Thank you for being part of

1825
01:35:10,880 --> 01:35:14,479
Speaker 42: two hundred and fifty years of great American tradition. Thanks

1826
01:35:14,479 --> 01:35:17,000
Speaker 42: to you guys for being able to being willing to

1827
01:35:17,040 --> 01:35:19,080
Speaker 42: put on the uniform and serve your country.

1828
01:35:19,400 --> 01:35:19,599
Speaker 9: Yeah.

1829
01:35:19,680 --> 01:35:21,640
Speaker 12: I always say that the most.

1830
01:35:21,360 --> 01:35:23,639
Speaker 42: Important thing that we have in this country the most

1831
01:35:23,720 --> 01:35:26,200
Speaker 42: valuable natural resource. We got plenty of oil, we got

1832
01:35:26,240 --> 01:35:29,879
Speaker 42: plenty of natural gas, we got great minds and minerals.

1833
01:35:29,880 --> 01:35:32,840
Speaker 42: But the most valuable resource that we have in the

1834
01:35:32,920 --> 01:35:34,760
Speaker 42: United States of America.

1835
01:35:34,400 --> 01:35:34,880
Speaker 10: Is you all.

1836
01:35:35,280 --> 01:35:38,439
Speaker 42: It's young people who are patriotic and dedicated, who are

1837
01:35:38,439 --> 01:35:41,000
Speaker 42: willing to put on the uniform of the United States

1838
01:35:41,040 --> 01:35:43,599
Speaker 42: and risk your lives to defend your fellow citizens. That's

1839
01:35:43,640 --> 01:35:46,240
Speaker 42: an amazing thing. I know it's easy to forget when

1840
01:35:46,280 --> 01:35:48,719
Speaker 42: you go about doing your jobs and you're just worried

1841
01:35:48,760 --> 01:35:51,280
Speaker 42: about getting through the day, worried about, you know, getting

1842
01:35:51,320 --> 01:35:53,640
Speaker 42: to the next week, worried about doing.

1843
01:35:53,520 --> 01:35:56,240
Speaker 12: The good job that all of you do, that what you're.

1844
01:35:56,000 --> 01:35:58,920
Speaker 42: Doing is an amazing thing. And it's easy to forget

1845
01:35:58,960 --> 01:36:00,920
Speaker 42: that because you know, you don't always have the Vice

1846
01:36:00,920 --> 01:36:03,080
Speaker 42: President dropping in to say thank you. But I want

1847
01:36:03,120 --> 01:36:05,519
Speaker 42: you to remember that, whether you serve another couple of

1848
01:36:05,600 --> 01:36:07,479
Speaker 42: years in the United States Marine Corps, whether you're at

1849
01:36:07,479 --> 01:36:10,040
Speaker 42: the beginning of a twenty or thirty year career, that

1850
01:36:10,120 --> 01:36:14,360
Speaker 42: we respect you, we thank you, and this Vice President

1851
01:36:14,439 --> 01:36:16,479
Speaker 42: and the President of the United States know that you

1852
01:36:16,600 --> 01:36:19,080
Speaker 42: guys are the most important resource that we have in

1853
01:36:19,080 --> 01:36:21,400
Speaker 42: the United States Marine Corps and it, or excuse me,

1854
01:36:21,439 --> 01:36:22,880
Speaker 42: in the United States of America.

1855
01:36:22,960 --> 01:36:27,840
Speaker 12: So thank you all, and God bless you. And the

1856
01:36:27,880 --> 01:36:28,439
Speaker 12: final thing I.

1857
01:36:28,479 --> 01:36:30,599
Speaker 42: Want to say here is I was actually and I

1858
01:36:30,640 --> 01:36:37,160
Speaker 42: know I was late. It's funny what that is not

1859
01:36:37,320 --> 01:36:40,880
Speaker 42: Marine Corps time? My friends? I remember Ganni Iarlage always

1860
01:36:40,920 --> 01:36:43,080
Speaker 42: told me, you know, if you're if you're five minutes

1861
01:36:43,120 --> 01:36:45,000
Speaker 42: earli or ten minutes late. I'm sure you guys have

1862
01:36:45,080 --> 01:36:46,920
Speaker 42: heard that phrase. Well, what does it mean when the

1863
01:36:46,960 --> 01:36:50,960
Speaker 42: Vice president is is two hours late? I guess I'm

1864
01:36:50,960 --> 01:36:52,400
Speaker 42: on time because who the hell is going to get

1865
01:36:52,400 --> 01:36:52,920
Speaker 42: me in trouble?

1866
01:36:53,120 --> 01:36:53,320
Speaker 29: Right?

1867
01:36:54,560 --> 01:36:58,360
Speaker 42: But here's the thing, my friends, is is I left.

1868
01:36:58,479 --> 01:37:00,280
Speaker 42: The reason I was a little bit latest because I

1869
01:37:00,280 --> 01:37:02,920
Speaker 42: was in the Oval office talking to the President and

1870
01:37:02,960 --> 01:37:04,360
Speaker 42: I stood up and I said, Sir, I know we're

1871
01:37:04,400 --> 01:37:07,639
Speaker 42: in the mill of something, but the Marines at Quantico

1872
01:37:07,640 --> 01:37:08,240
Speaker 42: are waiting on me.

1873
01:37:08,280 --> 01:37:09,840
Speaker 12: And he said, oh, I didn't realize that you got

1874
01:37:09,840 --> 01:37:11,559
Speaker 12: to get out of here. You gotta get out there.

1875
01:37:11,560 --> 01:37:12,880
Speaker 42: And I said, you have a message you want me

1876
01:37:12,920 --> 01:37:14,519
Speaker 42: to deliver in the President of the United States said

1877
01:37:14,520 --> 01:37:16,679
Speaker 42: he wanted me to tell you two things. First of all,

1878
01:37:17,120 --> 01:37:19,920
Speaker 42: that he loves you, and second of all, that he's

1879
01:37:19,920 --> 01:37:22,639
Speaker 42: proud of you. So let me echo the President. Let

1880
01:37:22,680 --> 01:37:26,439
Speaker 42: me echo a a grateful nation. You guys, just keep

1881
01:37:26,479 --> 01:37:29,400
Speaker 42: on doing what you're doing. We love you, we're proud

1882
01:37:29,400 --> 01:37:31,840
Speaker 42: of you, and we're gonna support you every single step

1883
01:37:31,840 --> 01:37:33,719
Speaker 42: of the way. God bless you Marine, Simper fidelus.

1884
01:37:37,560 --> 01:37:40,679
Speaker 5: We'll put a poo in your see him.

1885
01:37:43,520 --> 01:37:48,680
Speaker 23: Put your name after telling his damn stand lever just

1886
01:37:48,880 --> 01:37:50,240
Speaker 23: done it, shakeen f.

1887
01:37:50,720 --> 01:37:52,360
Speaker 11: And eagle will fly.

1888
01:37:52,800 --> 01:37:58,080
Speaker 5: Then that's coming me. When you him by the freedom staring.

1889
01:38:00,120 --> 01:38:01,160
Speaker 11: You lack the whole.

1890
01:38:01,800 --> 01:38:04,400
Speaker 15: We're his Vice President JD.

1891
01:38:04,560 --> 01:38:07,599
Speaker 22: Vance addressing the US Marine Corps in Quantico, Virginia.

1892
01:38:07,680 --> 01:38:09,120
Speaker 10: You just heard the remarks there.

1893
01:38:09,360 --> 01:38:11,479
Speaker 15: All right, let's get you back to the Charlie Kirkshaw.

1894
01:38:11,560 --> 01:38:16,599
Speaker 23: Now this has been a live special report. We now

1895
01:38:16,680 --> 01:38:19,000
Speaker 23: join our programming already in progress.

1896
01:38:19,320 --> 01:38:23,280
Speaker 41: Red Flag they shut it down, They netflix and unsubscribe

1897
01:38:23,280 --> 01:38:26,080
Speaker 41: in their home. I'm less afraried about that because parents

1898
01:38:26,120 --> 01:38:29,800
Speaker 41: are more easily able to detect that. I'm more worried

1899
01:38:29,800 --> 01:38:33,080
Speaker 41: about what parents struggle to detect. And that's the sub

1900
01:38:33,200 --> 01:38:37,200
Speaker 41: mediocre content in our textbooks used in classrooms across the

1901
01:38:37,240 --> 01:38:40,879
Speaker 41: country K to twelve that teach about government being the solution,

1902
01:38:41,280 --> 01:38:43,360
Speaker 41: and they do it in very subtle ways.

1903
01:38:43,439 --> 01:38:43,599
Speaker 11: Right.

1904
01:38:43,720 --> 01:38:47,280
Speaker 41: They praise FDR and claim that he you know, saved

1905
01:38:47,320 --> 01:38:50,599
Speaker 41: the country from the Great Depression. They praise Woodrow Wilson

1906
01:38:50,600 --> 01:38:53,680
Speaker 41: and claim that the Federal Reserve helped, you know, stivilize

1907
01:38:53,800 --> 01:38:58,720
Speaker 41: economy and stop you know, massive swings in baking. These

1908
01:38:58,720 --> 01:39:03,240
Speaker 41: are things parents to detect, and yet plant seeds stay

1909
01:39:03,240 --> 01:39:05,720
Speaker 41: with these children and lead them down a path of

1910
01:39:05,760 --> 01:39:09,559
Speaker 41: supporting big government and ultimately Marxism. So what we're on

1911
01:39:09,640 --> 01:39:13,280
Speaker 41: guard for is not the big flashy stuff that make

1912
01:39:13,400 --> 01:39:17,160
Speaker 41: lists like that and give get parents wrinkled. We're on

1913
01:39:17,200 --> 01:39:20,519
Speaker 41: the hunt for and helping parents detect the problems that

1914
01:39:20,560 --> 01:39:21,879
Speaker 41: they're not wise perceiving.

1967
01:42:14,200 --> 01:42:16,040
Speaker 24: there's some good stuff on the title Twins. They have

1968
01:42:16,120 --> 01:42:19,000
Speaker 24: one that is The Creature from Jekyl Island, which of

1969
01:42:19,000 --> 01:42:21,160
Speaker 24: course is all about the creation of the Federal Reserve.

1970
01:42:21,560 --> 01:42:23,120
Speaker 24: That would be a very good thing for a kid

1971
01:42:23,160 --> 01:42:27,439
Speaker 24: to read. Connor continues us, So let me ask, is

1972
01:42:27,600 --> 01:42:31,080
Speaker 24: are there books also for toddler's two, three four year olds.

1973
01:42:32,240 --> 01:42:35,160
Speaker 41: Absolutely, we have board books for toddlers, such as the

1974
01:42:35,200 --> 01:42:38,360
Speaker 41: ABC's of Liberty or the one two threes of the

1975
01:42:38,400 --> 01:42:42,200
Speaker 41: Bill of Rights, indestructible books that you're a toddler can

1976
01:42:42,240 --> 01:42:45,280
Speaker 41: slabber on and you'll, you know, still learn about freedom.

1977
01:42:45,479 --> 01:42:47,800
Speaker 41: We got books for teenagers as well, so we run

1978
01:42:47,840 --> 01:42:50,280
Speaker 41: the entire gamut no matter the age of your child,

1979
01:42:50,520 --> 01:42:54,080
Speaker 41: and Charlie, this won't surprise you. When we've surveyed our audience,

1980
01:42:54,520 --> 01:42:57,920
Speaker 41: over fifty two percent of parents tell us that they

1981
01:42:57,920 --> 01:43:00,000
Speaker 41: are learning new things for the first time even though

1982
01:43:00,080 --> 01:43:03,400
Speaker 41: they got these books for their kids. We're educating entire families,

1983
01:43:03,439 --> 01:43:05,519
Speaker 41: and it's so critical because groups like yours are on

1984
01:43:05,600 --> 01:43:06,360
Speaker 41: college campus.

1985
01:43:06,400 --> 01:43:07,439
Speaker 10: We have to engage there.

1986
01:43:07,479 --> 01:43:11,000
Speaker 41: We've seen the closing of the American mind on these campuses.

1987
01:43:11,320 --> 01:43:14,600
Speaker 41: I contend that if we invest earlier and help families

1988
01:43:14,640 --> 01:43:18,400
Speaker 41: incubate these ideas even earlier. That helps, you know, downstream

1989
01:43:18,479 --> 01:43:21,519
Speaker 41: solve so many other problems. And so families have struggled

1990
01:43:21,560 --> 01:43:22,880
Speaker 41: in the past to you know, how do I teach

1991
01:43:22,880 --> 01:43:24,479
Speaker 41: my kids about this stuff? How do I talk about it?

1992
01:43:24,479 --> 01:43:26,680
Speaker 41: I don't understand it very well. That's the problem we're

1993
01:43:26,720 --> 01:43:28,639
Speaker 41: trying to solve. Just read these fun books, talk about

1994
01:43:28,640 --> 01:43:31,080
Speaker 41: it together, and you'll be amazed at the aha moments

1995
01:43:31,080 --> 01:43:31,880
Speaker 41: that your kids will have.

1996
01:43:32,720 --> 01:43:35,240
Speaker 24: So one of the books that we got about six

1997
01:43:35,280 --> 01:43:38,680
Speaker 24: months ago was a history book allegedly, and it was

1998
01:43:38,720 --> 01:43:41,560
Speaker 24: a beautiful thing that said, you know, top moments in

1999
01:43:41,600 --> 01:43:44,439
Speaker 24: American history monuments. I think it was all about so okay,

2000
01:43:44,439 --> 01:43:45,200
Speaker 24: what could possibly be.

2001
01:43:45,160 --> 01:43:45,959
Speaker 12: Wrong with monuments?

2002
01:43:46,160 --> 01:43:50,920
Speaker 24: We start reading this book and there was an entire

2003
01:43:51,439 --> 01:43:59,639
Speaker 24: chapter illustrated of this the Stonewall Riot, which was a

2004
01:43:59,640 --> 01:44:03,519
Speaker 24: serious of these spontaneous riots back in nineteen sixty nine,

2005
01:44:03,640 --> 01:44:08,040
Speaker 24: all about like the gay rights thing, page after page.

2006
01:44:08,080 --> 01:44:10,000
Speaker 24: And this is supposed to be a book to American

2007
01:44:10,080 --> 01:44:12,800
Speaker 24: monument Think of all the monuments that you could have

2008
01:44:13,080 --> 01:44:15,599
Speaker 24: for kids to learn. So you don't know that at

2009
01:44:15,600 --> 01:44:17,559
Speaker 24: this you know, you buy this monument's book, you don't

2010
01:44:17,560 --> 01:44:21,200
Speaker 24: know that I start reading this stuff and it is

2011
01:44:21,439 --> 01:44:25,439
Speaker 24: remarkable the toxins. Look, the bottom line is this is

2012
01:44:25,439 --> 01:44:27,960
Speaker 24: that there are dark forces that are trying to harm

2013
01:44:28,040 --> 01:44:30,080
Speaker 24: our kids and you must be vigilant.

2014
01:44:30,120 --> 01:44:31,240
Speaker 12: And it could be very subtle.

2015
01:44:32,160 --> 01:44:36,559
Speaker 24: And going back to the snow white theme, you know

2016
01:44:36,600 --> 01:44:40,120
Speaker 24: there is this book and Tango Makes Three is the

2017
01:44:40,160 --> 01:44:42,400
Speaker 24: true story of a same sex penguin.

2018
01:44:42,400 --> 01:44:44,040
Speaker 12: I don't know how it could post be a true story.

2019
01:44:44,640 --> 01:44:48,040
Speaker 24: Last year, the Escambia County School Board paid a law

2020
01:44:48,080 --> 01:44:51,200
Speaker 24: firm at least one hundred and seven thousand dollars to

2021
01:44:51,280 --> 01:44:55,280
Speaker 24: defend its removal and Tangoed Makes Three after a lawsuit

2022
01:44:55,320 --> 01:44:58,799
Speaker 24: was filed by its authors. Imagine a school board investing

2023
01:44:58,880 --> 01:45:03,519
Speaker 24: six figures defend itself against common sense because inappropriate to

2024
01:45:03,520 --> 01:45:08,120
Speaker 24: bring agendas to children. So, just more broadly, what is

2025
01:45:08,160 --> 01:45:11,080
Speaker 24: your vision for the Tuttle Twins. You've had great success.

2026
01:45:11,320 --> 01:45:12,719
Speaker 24: Where do you want to see this go next?

2027
01:45:13,600 --> 01:45:16,880
Speaker 41: Well again, books like that Charlie raised the flag and

2028
01:45:16,920 --> 01:45:20,200
Speaker 41: we have focused attention on that is clearly a problematic book.

2029
01:45:20,200 --> 01:45:22,599
Speaker 41: The history book that you mentioned, think of the history

2030
01:45:22,600 --> 01:45:24,840
Speaker 41: books that are used in schools across the country. We

2031
01:45:24,880 --> 01:45:27,320
Speaker 41: actually purchased all the popular ones. We did a study

2032
01:45:27,360 --> 01:45:29,800
Speaker 41: of them, and what you find is that they are

2033
01:45:29,880 --> 01:45:32,680
Speaker 41: all great at teaching American history to kids, if the

2034
01:45:32,760 --> 01:45:35,479
Speaker 41: goal is to help them win jeopardy in the future

2035
01:45:35,560 --> 01:45:38,639
Speaker 41: by being able to recite every little factoid and random tidbit.

2036
01:45:38,960 --> 01:45:42,240
Speaker 41: But they did a horrible job at actually teaching the ideas,

2037
01:45:42,320 --> 01:45:46,040
Speaker 41: the philosophy, the values that formed this country. So the

2038
01:45:46,080 --> 01:45:48,479
Speaker 41: history books that we've created have tried to solve for

2039
01:45:48,560 --> 01:45:50,640
Speaker 41: that by saying, yeah, we got to teach the what

2040
01:45:50,840 --> 01:45:53,840
Speaker 41: happened and the who did it. That's important, But the

2041
01:45:53,920 --> 01:45:57,280
Speaker 41: real context is the ideas that were you know that

2042
01:45:57,320 --> 01:45:58,599
Speaker 41: people were struggling over.

2043
01:45:58,640 --> 01:46:00,000
Speaker 10: You ask about a vision for America.

2044
01:46:00,000 --> 01:46:02,400
Speaker 41: America, I think of the NAPE scores that came out

2045
01:46:02,439 --> 01:46:04,559
Speaker 41: about a year ago. This is the national assessment of

2046
01:46:04,600 --> 01:46:07,840
Speaker 41: how kids are learning in America, and they found that

2047
01:46:07,880 --> 01:46:11,280
Speaker 41: for the eighth graders when they tested them on American history,

2048
01:46:11,560 --> 01:46:15,400
Speaker 41: only thirteen percent of them were proficient in American history.

2049
01:46:15,439 --> 01:46:19,240
Speaker 41: That's one three, not three zero, thirteen percent. So then

2050
01:46:19,280 --> 01:46:22,160
Speaker 41: I ask you, Charlie and our audience, what becomes of

2051
01:46:22,160 --> 01:46:26,160
Speaker 41: America if the future of voters are so ignorant about

2052
01:46:26,160 --> 01:46:28,599
Speaker 41: our past, those who don't learn from the past of course,

2053
01:46:28,600 --> 01:46:31,400
Speaker 41: are condemned to repeat it. So my vision for our

2054
01:46:31,439 --> 01:46:34,479
Speaker 41: country is that we can empower families across the country

2055
01:46:34,760 --> 01:46:40,280
Speaker 41: to learn these ideas together, to give their children an intellectual, ideological,

2056
01:46:40,960 --> 01:46:44,120
Speaker 41: historical foundation of ideas, so that as they go out

2057
01:46:44,120 --> 01:46:47,559
Speaker 41: into society and they're bombarded with all the garbage that's

2058
01:46:47,600 --> 01:46:51,920
Speaker 41: going to come upon them, whether that's from peers, social media, academia,

2059
01:46:52,000 --> 01:46:54,240
Speaker 41: or whatever, they're going to be able to withstand it.

2060
01:46:54,240 --> 01:46:57,439
Speaker 41: They're not going to be an impressionable robot that just

2061
01:46:57,600 --> 01:47:00,640
Speaker 41: is assimilated into the borg hive mind. They're going to

2062
01:47:00,720 --> 01:47:04,240
Speaker 41: have the capacity to think critically, to act independently.

2063
01:47:04,479 --> 01:47:05,760
Speaker 10: But we've got to put in the work.

2064
01:47:05,800 --> 01:47:08,799
Speaker 41: We can't assume best intentions of a system that's clearly

2065
01:47:09,120 --> 01:47:12,960
Speaker 41: been corrupted, where the curriculum has been dumbed down. Parents

2066
01:47:13,000 --> 01:47:15,040
Speaker 41: need help, they need a lifeline. They want to step

2067
01:47:15,080 --> 01:47:17,000
Speaker 41: in and they want to help their kids. That's what

2068
01:47:17,040 --> 01:47:18,879
Speaker 41: the Tuttle Twins is trying to be as a resource

2069
01:47:18,920 --> 01:47:19,960
Speaker 41: for them to do exactly that.

2070
