WEBVTT - MAGA Wants War 0:00:11.800 --> 0:00:14.160 Good morning, peep Sen, and welcome to WIKA, a daily 0:00:14.240 --> 0:00:18.960 with Meet your Girl Danielle Moody. Recording from the Home Bunker. Folks, 0:00:19.160 --> 0:00:24.439 you know it's been Let's just think about this for 0:00:24.560 --> 0:00:32.040 a minute. It's been almost almost two entire years since 0:00:32.600 --> 0:00:38.839 the insurrection January sixth, twenty twenty one. We are but 0:00:39.080 --> 0:00:46.479 a handful of months away from January sixth, twenty twenty three. 0:00:47.200 --> 0:00:55.640 And while the Department of Justice has issued indictments charges 0:00:56.080 --> 0:01:01.600 sentencing against the quote unquote foot soldier of the insurrection, 0:01:01.680 --> 0:01:05.600 those people that were physically inside of the building, and 0:01:05.640 --> 0:01:07.959 then they have extended to those people that were not 0:01:08.120 --> 0:01:14.200 physically inside but were indeed coordinating. We have seen sedition 0:01:14.319 --> 0:01:18.319 charges put up against members of the Oath Keepers and 0:01:18.440 --> 0:01:23.160 the Proud Boys, and yet, dear friends, as Glenn will 0:01:23.200 --> 0:01:28.520 tell us in our upcoming interview, none of the actual suits, 0:01:28.959 --> 0:01:32.400 as opposed to the boots that were on the ground, 0:01:32.680 --> 0:01:35.720 have been indicted. Glenn and I will get into a 0:01:35.760 --> 0:01:39.399 conversation about where we are right now as it pertains 0:01:39.400 --> 0:01:44.600 to Donald Trump and the stolen classified documents and the 0:01:44.640 --> 0:01:48.960 fact that Judge A. Lean Cannon is a Trump lackey 0:01:49.440 --> 0:01:53.480 has no business having the position, the lifetime position that 0:01:53.520 --> 0:01:56.760 she does have that Mitch McConnell and Donald Trump stuffed 0:01:56.760 --> 0:02:01.360 down our throats after Donald Trump lost the election. She 0:02:01.560 --> 0:02:04.080 was obviously placed there for a reason. And I say 0:02:04.120 --> 0:02:09.880 to Glenn, what is the fucking point of us as 0:02:09.919 --> 0:02:13.079 a whole people who actually believe in the rule of law, 0:02:13.160 --> 0:02:15.800 people that are forced to follow the rule of law 0:02:16.200 --> 0:02:21.040 while others that are rich, white, wealthy, siss hetero do not. 0:02:23.240 --> 0:02:27.640 How are we going to seek accountability and justice inside 0:02:27.639 --> 0:02:32.680 of a system that is already rigged? This is my 0:02:32.800 --> 0:02:37.359 real fundamental question. If you know, and if there are 0:02:37.440 --> 0:02:40.880 other legal experts on both the right and the left 0:02:41.440 --> 0:02:44.960 that are saying that Judge Cannon's decisions and even her 0:02:45.080 --> 0:02:52.040 written opinions are motherfucking suspect, then how were we continuing 0:02:52.480 --> 0:02:57.240 to operate above board when we know that these people 0:02:57.560 --> 0:03:03.400 are doing everything in their power to thwart the rule 0:03:03.480 --> 0:03:10.240 of law and to ensure that Donald Trump never sees accountability. Now, 0:03:11.040 --> 0:03:16.240 Trump most recently was on Somebody's right wing bullshit talk 0:03:16.280 --> 0:03:21.920 show where he stated unequivocally what sounded most definitely like 0:03:22.000 --> 0:03:26.440 a threat to me, where if in fact justice does 0:03:26.520 --> 0:03:30.120 begin to rain down at some point like a mighty 0:03:30.240 --> 0:03:35.960 stream that the people, the American people, he says, will 0:03:36.040 --> 0:03:42.080 not stand for it. Well, what people? Because a majority 0:03:42.120 --> 0:03:46.960 of Americans, not your sycophant twenty five percent, but a 0:03:47.040 --> 0:03:51.840 majority of Americans actually know that if they had a 0:03:51.960 --> 0:03:56.520 quarter of the crimes or thought or perception of the 0:03:56.560 --> 0:04:00.480 crimes that Donald Trump has committed, they would be under 0:04:00.520 --> 0:04:05.840 a jail. So how is it then that Donald Trump 0:04:05.880 --> 0:04:10.680 thinks that a majority of Americans are gonna what? As 0:04:10.760 --> 0:04:14.920 Lindsay Graham had also threatened take up arms to defend 0:04:14.960 --> 0:04:19.479 this piece of ship. I mean, maybe they will, but 0:04:19.600 --> 0:04:22.400 I know this, this I know for certain in my heart, 0:04:22.440 --> 0:04:25.400 and I have been thinking about this, folks, and I 0:04:25.440 --> 0:04:29.159 have been meditating on this. They want war. I have 0:04:29.240 --> 0:04:31.920 said it on this show a number of times. I 0:04:31.920 --> 0:04:37.159 have said it on television. Marga wants war. And I 0:04:37.200 --> 0:04:39.680 don't think that they will rest until they get their war, 0:04:39.720 --> 0:04:43.360 because they are so goddamn trigger happy, right, wanting to 0:04:43.360 --> 0:04:46.040 take down any black and brown person that they see, 0:04:46.360 --> 0:04:48.920 wanted to shoot up women, wanting to do all of 0:04:48.920 --> 0:04:54.520 these hateful things. Right, But they ain't gonna win. I 0:04:54.520 --> 0:04:56.640 don't care how many bullets and guns that they have 0:04:56.760 --> 0:04:59.960 on their side because, as doctor Britney Cooper had said 0:05:00.160 --> 0:05:04.160 many many months ago on this show, they can't kill us, 0:05:04.160 --> 0:05:11.279 all right, And so my feeling about their very bold, 0:05:11.440 --> 0:05:16.159 threatening language that they have continued to use, readying their 0:05:16.279 --> 0:05:19.720 folks in this new era of stand back and stand by. 0:05:20.000 --> 0:05:25.400 I'm telling our team pay attention, keep your eyes wide open, 0:05:26.120 --> 0:05:31.680 keep your chin up, keep your back straight, because they 0:05:31.720 --> 0:05:36.280 ain't going to win. I don't know how long we 0:05:36.320 --> 0:05:39.360 will be in this fight. I have said that I 0:05:39.400 --> 0:05:41.919 believe that it will get bloodier before it gets better. 0:05:42.320 --> 0:05:47.440 But I'm telling you they will not win. Coming up next, 0:05:47.720 --> 0:05:52.240 my conversation with our friend host of Justice Matters and 0:05:52.680 --> 0:05:58.440 MSNBC legal analysts Glenn Kirshner to delve into all of 0:05:58.480 --> 0:06:07.800 our legal woes.

New episodes every Tuesday. Folks, you know that 0:07:34.320 --> 0:07:36.960 whenever we have the opportunity to speak with our friend, 0:07:36.960 --> 0:07:40.880 the host of Justice Matters in MSNBC legal analyst Glenn 0:07:40.920 --> 0:07:45.960 Kirshner to work us through our legal woes. I am 0:07:45.960 --> 0:07:50.480 greatly appreciative, and I say legal woes, Glenn, because right now, 0:07:50.840 --> 0:07:54.200 as a sign says, behind you, we're trying to figure 0:07:54.240 --> 0:07:57.600 out in America if justice actually does matter. We're trying 0:07:57.640 --> 0:08:00.840 to figure out if there is any integ already left 0:08:00.920 --> 0:08:05.600 in our Department of Justice as we are continuing with 0:08:05.680 --> 0:08:11.480 this dance with this BS that is happening down in 0:08:11.520 --> 0:08:15.600 Florida with Judge Cannon. The latest, well at least the 0:08:15.680 --> 0:08:17.560 latest that I know, but I know you'll give us 0:08:17.560 --> 0:08:21.160 a deeper overview, is that the Department of Justice has 0:08:21.200 --> 0:08:27.000 said okay to the Trump judged, one of the two 0:08:27.080 --> 0:08:29.840 judges that they have put up to be a quote 0:08:29.880 --> 0:08:33.600 unquote special Master. Again, I don't even understand what we 0:08:33.640 --> 0:08:38.599 are doing here when the Department of Justice has already 0:08:38.679 --> 0:08:42.000 gone through the documents that they took over a month ago, 0:08:42.160 --> 0:08:45.080 that they took back over a month ago from Donald Trump. 0:08:45.200 --> 0:08:48.760 So give us an overview, Glenn as to where we 0:08:48.840 --> 0:08:51.040 are with this nonsense, because I don't know what else 0:08:51.080 --> 0:08:55.080 to call it other than that, Yeah, boy, and we 0:08:55.160 --> 0:08:59.280 got woes, you know, and I do think there is 0:09:00.080 --> 0:09:02.880 plenty of integrity at the Department of Justice. But there's 0:09:02.920 --> 0:09:06.160 too damn much timidity at the Department of Justice. I 0:09:06.200 --> 0:09:10.920 don't know why they are declining to indict criminal charges 0:09:11.080 --> 0:09:15.080 that we all know there is adequate evidence to indict. 0:09:15.120 --> 0:09:17.040 Maybe we can circle back to that in a few minutes. 0:09:17.120 --> 0:09:21.800 Let's take on Judge A. Lean Cannon, the completely unqualified 0:09:21.880 --> 0:09:25.960 federal judge that was installed by Donald Trump and Mitch 0:09:26.040 --> 0:09:31.400 McConnell's Senate after Donald Trump lost the election. So she 0:09:31.600 --> 0:09:34.199 was put there for a reason, and now she's doing 0:09:34.280 --> 0:09:38.160 precisely what Trump and McConnell had hoped she would do, 0:09:38.520 --> 0:09:42.960 make illegitimate rulings to protect Donald Trump. That's what she's doing. 0:09:43.000 --> 0:09:47.240 And I don't say that lightly or cavalierly. So you know, 0:09:47.280 --> 0:09:51.359 there's so much to dislike about how she's handled this litigation. 0:09:52.280 --> 0:10:00.480 Donald Trump stole classified information, top secret materials, national defense documents, 0:10:00.520 --> 0:10:04.720 which is why this is also an Espionage Act case, 0:10:05.280 --> 0:10:09.800 and information about the nuclear capabilities of foreign countries. He 0:10:09.960 --> 0:10:14.240 stole it all, then he illegally concealed it at Mara Lago, 0:10:14.679 --> 0:10:18.600 including after it had been subpoenaed. The fact that he 0:10:18.760 --> 0:10:23.960 violated that subpoena gives rise to an obstruction of justice charge, 0:10:24.280 --> 0:10:27.520 which is a twenty year offense. And then when the 0:10:27.600 --> 0:10:32.000 FBI seized it all, took back the stuff he stole 0:10:32.080 --> 0:10:36.920 from the government and began to investigate Donald Trump's crimes, 0:10:37.840 --> 0:10:42.280 Judge Alien Cannon swooped in and entered a stop work order. 0:10:42.760 --> 0:10:46.600 You may not investigate the crimes of Donald Trump as 0:10:46.640 --> 0:10:52.040 they pertain to these documents. That's insane, that's arguably beyond 0:10:52.080 --> 0:10:55.360 the powers of the judiciary. But that's what she did. 0:10:55.640 --> 0:10:57.800 And she said, So, what I'm going to do, because 0:10:57.840 --> 0:11:00.680 Donald Trump has asked me to, is a point a 0:11:00.760 --> 0:11:05.440 special person, a third party, somebody independent, to go through 0:11:05.480 --> 0:11:09.600 all this stuff and see if the FBI and the 0:11:09.640 --> 0:11:14.640 Department of Justice should really get to use this evidence 0:11:14.679 --> 0:11:18.359 that Donald Trump stole from the federal government to investigate 0:11:18.400 --> 0:11:22.520 the crimes of Donald Trump. Another level of insanity. The 0:11:22.559 --> 0:11:25.280 Department of Justice said, well, first of all, Judge, we've 0:11:25.320 --> 0:11:29.360 seen it all and that's important for our purposes. But 0:11:29.559 --> 0:11:33.680 now what we need to do is investigate what Donald 0:11:33.720 --> 0:11:36.600 Trump did with it so we can determine just how 0:11:36.640 --> 0:11:40.320 badly he's damaged our national security. Let me give you 0:11:40.360 --> 0:11:44.040 an example to just bring it home concrete. If Donald 0:11:44.080 --> 0:11:48.000 Trump took a classified document, stole it from the White House, 0:11:48.040 --> 0:11:50.360 folded it up, put it in his breast pocket, brought 0:11:50.360 --> 0:11:54.079 it tomorrow Lago, and never showed it to or exposed 0:11:54.080 --> 0:11:58.600 it to anyone. Well, that's an investigation that the FBI 0:11:58.679 --> 0:12:01.320 would have to conduct, and then they would hand off 0:12:01.320 --> 0:12:05.880 the investigation to the intelligence community, the CIA and the like, 0:12:06.480 --> 0:12:09.480 and they would assess the threat and the damage to 0:12:09.559 --> 0:12:12.280 our national security. Now, I think we can agree that 0:12:12.480 --> 0:12:15.440 the threat might be very low if they could prove 0:12:15.559 --> 0:12:19.520 through an investigation that nobody saw it after Donald Trump 0:12:19.520 --> 0:12:22.480 took it to mar Lago. That same document, Donald Trump 0:12:22.559 --> 0:12:24.920 steals it from the White House, goes down to mar Lago, 0:12:25.240 --> 0:12:28.760 and starts letting our adversaries see it, copy it, snap 0:12:28.800 --> 0:12:31.480 pictures of it. Maybe he sells it to our enemies, 0:12:31.880 --> 0:12:36.760 leverages it for a favorable business deal. Well, then if 0:12:36.800 --> 0:12:41.280 the FBI conducted that investigation and learned those facts and 0:12:41.440 --> 0:12:44.640 pass them off to the intelligence community, the threat to 0:12:44.640 --> 0:12:49.960 our national security might be extraordinarily high, and our overseas assets, 0:12:50.280 --> 0:12:54.920 their lives might be at risk. Judge Cannon said, you're 0:12:54.960 --> 0:13:00.959 not permitted to do that investigation. That's insane and dangerous. 0:13:01.320 --> 0:13:07.959 She's facilitating Donald Trump's compromise of our national security. Now 0:13:08.440 --> 0:13:11.840 what the Department of Justice said, as well, you know what, Judge, 0:13:11.600 --> 0:13:15.440 you're blowing our minds. That's my interpretation of their pleadings, 0:13:15.480 --> 0:13:18.400 all of which I've read. But if you feel like 0:13:18.760 --> 0:13:22.240 there has to be this independent, third person special master 0:13:22.320 --> 0:13:25.199 to review some of the stuff we took from our 0:13:25.320 --> 0:13:28.920 lago some of what we took might have some attorney 0:13:28.920 --> 0:13:33.520 client privilege information in it, not the classified documents, other 0:13:33.600 --> 0:13:36.480 stuff that we seize during the execution of the search 0:13:36.520 --> 0:13:39.640 ward that we were authorized to seize, and we've already 0:13:39.720 --> 0:13:43.240 segregated that out with what's called a privilege review team. 0:13:43.600 --> 0:13:46.240 The Special Master is welcome to look at that and 0:13:46.320 --> 0:13:48.280 see if we should be able to use it in 0:13:48.280 --> 0:13:52.240 our investigation or if it enjoys attorney client privilege such 0:13:52.280 --> 0:13:55.280 that we shouldn't be allowed to use it. That, Danielle 0:13:55.320 --> 0:13:58.640 is actually the appropriate use of a special Master. And 0:13:58.720 --> 0:14:00.839 the judge said, yeah, I don't care. I don't care 0:14:00.880 --> 0:14:03.280 what you filed, I don't care what Trump's team filed. 0:14:03.760 --> 0:14:05.960 This is the way it's going to be. So the 0:14:06.000 --> 0:14:08.880 Department of Justice said, well, we're appealing the whole ball 0:14:08.920 --> 0:14:13.080 of Wax to the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals because Judge, 0:14:13.200 --> 0:14:17.400 you're out to lunch. Factually and legally, here's what she said. 0:14:17.480 --> 0:14:21.800 Let me just finish. I know, I'm finish. I got 0:14:21.840 --> 0:14:24.960 eight questions. Yeah, the most absurdain thing I've ever heard 0:14:24.960 --> 0:14:30.000 of federal judge saying. She said, we know that the 0:14:30.040 --> 0:14:34.160 government asserts, the Department of Justice claims that there were 0:14:34.200 --> 0:14:38.800 a whole bunch of classified documents. Sure, we've seen pictures 0:14:38.840 --> 0:14:43.480 of the classified banner with everything else redacted out of 0:14:43.720 --> 0:14:47.000 many of these documents that were taken from Donald Trump's office, 0:14:47.080 --> 0:14:50.200 not from a storage room. And we know even Donald 0:14:50.200 --> 0:14:53.400 Trump's defense attorneys have never have never claimed that he 0:14:53.520 --> 0:14:57.000 declassified anything. They've never made that claim in court. They 0:14:57.000 --> 0:14:59.360 said he has the power to, but they've never said 0:14:59.560 --> 0:15:04.360 he has declassified anything. She then said in her written order, 0:15:05.040 --> 0:15:08.520 I don't believe. I don't believe there's even classified information 0:15:08.640 --> 0:15:13.080 there that echoes a Donald Trump talking point. Well, many 0:15:13.120 --> 0:15:18.120 people are saying nothing was classified. That is the most 0:15:18.160 --> 0:15:20.000 insane thing I think I've ever heard out of the 0:15:20.040 --> 0:15:23.480 mouth of a federal judge. She doesn't believe, she said, 0:15:23.520 --> 0:15:27.240 I'm not willing to accept the Department of Justice's representation 0:15:27.560 --> 0:15:32.960 that there were classified materials there. So here's the thing, Glenn, 0:15:33.920 --> 0:15:39.160 and I appreciate the overview. So here's one of the 0:15:39.280 --> 0:15:42.560 billion questions that I have. First of all, we know 0:15:43.040 --> 0:15:46.800 that Judge Aileen Cannon should not have this job. We 0:15:46.920 --> 0:15:50.480 know that she is I'm going to use the word corrupt. 0:15:50.680 --> 0:15:53.840 And why do I say that? Because she was appointed 0:15:53.880 --> 0:15:58.160 after Donald Trump lost. She has no resume that matches 0:15:58.200 --> 0:16:00.280 the position that she is going to behold and for 0:16:00.480 --> 0:16:07.680 a lifetime appointment, and she is using Trump maga QAnon 0:16:07.960 --> 0:16:12.960 talking points in her own writings. We know this, So 0:16:13.200 --> 0:16:17.840 you tell me why the hell there isn't an investigation 0:16:18.040 --> 0:16:21.480 and a case into this judge. Why do we just 0:16:21.800 --> 0:16:26.120 accept accept the fact that we know that there are 0:16:26.120 --> 0:16:29.600 a myriad of judges that have been appointed simply for 0:16:29.640 --> 0:16:32.640 the protection of Donald Trump, And we say, those of 0:16:32.720 --> 0:16:36.920 us that believe in the actual rule of law are like, oh, well, 0:16:36.960 --> 0:16:39.920 I guess there's nothing we can do here, and we 0:16:40.080 --> 0:16:45.000 just continue to operate above board, knowing that everything is 0:16:45.040 --> 0:16:50.400 actually stacked against us with this band of criminals. You know, Daniel, 0:16:50.440 --> 0:16:53.600 I wish I could give you a satisfactory answer to 0:16:53.840 --> 0:16:59.160 why the Department of Justice doesn't rise to the challenge 0:16:59.440 --> 0:17:04.480 of take on corrupt judges. Now we have seen that 0:17:04.600 --> 0:17:08.760 they apparently are unwilling, as is Congress to take on 0:17:09.280 --> 0:17:15.600 corrupt Supreme Court justices, which you know has the potential 0:17:15.800 --> 0:17:19.240 of wreaking so much havoc in our country, like I 0:17:19.280 --> 0:17:24.719 don't know having women's constitutional privacy rights revoked, right, but 0:17:24.800 --> 0:17:29.600 we seem entirely unwilling to take that on by opening hearings, 0:17:29.720 --> 0:17:34.639 I would call them impeachment inquiries to investigate what it 0:17:34.800 --> 0:17:39.919 is that Thomas and Alito and Kavanaugh and Coney, Barrett 0:17:39.920 --> 0:17:45.760 and Gorsuch did when they misrepresented their true views about 0:17:45.880 --> 0:17:50.080 Rowe versus Wade in their confirmation hearings under oath. That 0:17:50.119 --> 0:17:54.199 doesn't guarantee that if we open those hearings we tackle 0:17:54.280 --> 0:17:58.280 that hard issue on behalf of the American people. Doesn't 0:17:58.320 --> 0:18:02.800 guarantee that the House will pass articles of impeachment, but 0:18:02.840 --> 0:18:06.200 if they do, it also doesn't guarantee that the Senate 0:18:06.240 --> 0:18:08.800 will convict them. But if we don't take the first 0:18:08.880 --> 0:18:12.960 step on the road to accountability, then we've already lost 0:18:12.960 --> 0:18:16.359 the battle, which is precisely what you just were asking about. 0:18:16.720 --> 0:18:20.159 Why are we unwilling to take the first step on 0:18:20.200 --> 0:18:23.879 the road to accountability that I don't have an answer for. 0:18:24.240 --> 0:18:27.320 I wish it would change because it I mean to me, 0:18:28.600 --> 0:18:31.880 I guess because I operate in reality and on Earth one. 0:18:32.080 --> 0:18:35.199 It does not make sense for us to continue. And 0:18:35.240 --> 0:18:38.640 I mean us as part of those that are into 0:18:38.680 --> 0:18:41.040 the Department of Justice that are not a punch a 0:18:41.119 --> 0:18:46.080 part of Trump's lying like criminal syndicate. How are we 0:18:46.280 --> 0:18:52.520 pursuing accountability and responsibility and we're hedging our bets on 0:18:52.640 --> 0:18:57.880 people that were installed to block that path altogether? How 0:18:57.920 --> 0:19:00.560 are we continuing to say that, oh, yes, we're going 0:19:00.600 --> 0:19:03.640 to bring the best case possible if the decision has 0:19:03.680 --> 0:19:06.919 already been made before you open up your mouth and 0:19:07.119 --> 0:19:10.480 present your evidence. If a judge is sitting there and 0:19:10.560 --> 0:19:14.280 saying to you, here are folders that literally friggin read 0:19:14.600 --> 0:19:18.840 classified information, and then you have the audacity to say, oh, 0:19:18.920 --> 0:19:21.560 but I don't believe that there's class that's like me, say, okay, 0:19:21.640 --> 0:19:24.119 I don't believe this guy is blue. I don't believe 0:19:24.160 --> 0:19:27.919 water is wet. Right, just because you are not operating 0:19:27.920 --> 0:19:30.640 in the place of reality doesn't mean that that's where 0:19:30.640 --> 0:19:33.399 the rest of us are. And I just don't understand 0:19:33.440 --> 0:19:35.520 how we think that we are going to hold onto 0:19:35.600 --> 0:19:40.240 our democracy and our institutions if we are not literally 0:19:40.480 --> 0:19:43.480 digging down to the core and getting rid of all 0:19:43.520 --> 0:19:47.159 of the rot. I don't know. I'm with you, and 0:19:47.880 --> 0:19:52.359 you know, something needs to change. I think one of 0:19:52.440 --> 0:19:56.240 the one of the areas where we can be somewhat 0:19:56.240 --> 0:19:59.879 hopeful is the upcoming mid terms. I mean, I think 0:20:00.320 --> 0:20:03.280 there is reason to be more hopeful now that we're 0:20:03.320 --> 0:20:06.600 gonna get you know, a something of a blue tidal wave, 0:20:06.680 --> 0:20:09.520 and the decency will be rising in America after that. 0:20:10.080 --> 0:20:14.400 But you know, decency rising is important, but accountability rising 0:20:14.560 --> 0:20:17.720 is more important. And that's what we need. You know, 0:20:17.800 --> 0:20:20.720 we need people who are willing to take the fight 0:20:20.800 --> 0:20:24.560 to the bastards, even if, even if we are not 0:20:24.760 --> 0:20:28.120 guaranteed to be successful. You know, people when they took 0:20:28.160 --> 0:20:31.640 on the J six Committee public hearings, people were like, well, 0:20:31.680 --> 0:20:34.720 that's not gonna matter. Nobody's going to get impeached. Congress 0:20:34.760 --> 0:20:39.000 can't prosecute anybody. All of that is true, and yet 0:20:39.040 --> 0:20:43.359 look at how important those public hearings have been to 0:20:43.680 --> 0:20:48.560 expose to the American people the crimes of Trump and company. 0:20:48.600 --> 0:20:52.160 That's very much a hearts and minds campaign, and if 0:20:52.160 --> 0:20:55.320 you can convince the hearts and minds, then maybe an 0:20:55.400 --> 0:21:02.360 unduly timid DOJ will follow with criminal charges. Here's my question, Glenn, though, 0:21:02.400 --> 0:21:05.639 with regard to the January sixth committee hearings, and we 0:21:05.720 --> 0:21:07.720 know that there is at the end of this month, 0:21:08.600 --> 0:21:11.720 we will pick up where we left off at the 0:21:11.720 --> 0:21:15.720 beginning of the summer. You know, they are doing a 0:21:15.760 --> 0:21:18.879 masterful job, as you're saying, in terms of presenting the 0:21:18.960 --> 0:21:22.680 evidence to the people, and as if the American public 0:21:23.280 --> 0:21:27.040 are the jurors right to really understand and sift through 0:21:27.080 --> 0:21:30.639 this information. However, what I keep hearing from people that 0:21:30.680 --> 0:21:36.360 listen to my shows and follow me is that, yeah, Danielle, 0:21:36.440 --> 0:21:38.840 we have these we have this pile of evidence. If 0:21:38.840 --> 0:21:41.280 it were me or you, we would be in jail already. 0:21:41.640 --> 0:21:45.520 So what good is this if we're doing if this 0:21:45.600 --> 0:21:48.720 is just for pomp and circumstance and nothing that they 0:21:48.800 --> 0:21:52.200 believe is actually going to happen. And again, the more 0:21:52.240 --> 0:21:55.440 evidence that comes up, the more things that we learn 0:21:55.560 --> 0:21:58.639 about what Donald Trump has done and the inaction that 0:21:58.800 --> 0:22:02.760 is taking, just continue any with quote unquote investigations. People 0:22:02.800 --> 0:22:06.240 are losing faith and so my question for you is, 0:22:06.320 --> 0:22:10.600 do you think that there is potential that the January 0:22:10.640 --> 0:22:15.400 six committee hearings will actually backfire in terms of presenting 0:22:15.760 --> 0:22:19.639 again this mount everest worth of information and then there's 0:22:19.760 --> 0:22:23.440 no prosecution on the side of the Department of Justice 0:22:23.480 --> 0:22:27.800 that actually has the power to prosecute. I'm not worried 0:22:27.840 --> 0:22:33.840 about it backfiring because even the transparency that it's bringing 0:22:33.960 --> 0:22:38.960 to us, it helps. It will help in the midterms, 0:22:39.520 --> 0:22:44.160 it will help us understand the crimes of Trump and company, 0:22:44.200 --> 0:22:49.399 and I absolutely believe it is moving the Department of 0:22:49.520 --> 0:22:55.080 Justice prosecutorial needle. We have seen DJ, excuse me, We've 0:22:55.119 --> 0:22:59.600 seen the j six Committee investigate certain areas, expose certain 0:22:59.640 --> 0:23:01.560 crime and what are we here. The next thing we 0:23:01.600 --> 0:23:06.359 know DJ is subpoenaing those same people to testify before 0:23:06.400 --> 0:23:10.200 the grand jury. That's an indication that they're criminally investigating 0:23:10.240 --> 0:23:13.399 and moving toward prosecution. Now let me use this as 0:23:13.440 --> 0:23:15.679 an example. I did a video last night that was 0:23:15.840 --> 0:23:20.199 a little dark because I wasn't finding much optimism on 0:23:20.320 --> 0:23:24.320 the horizon yesterday and it had to do with Mark Meadows. 0:23:25.359 --> 0:23:28.679 So we just learned that the Department of Justice issued 0:23:28.720 --> 0:23:31.679 a grand jury subpoena to Mark Meadows, the highest Trump 0:23:31.720 --> 0:23:36.360 official that has been subpoenaed to that criminal investigation. Yeay, 0:23:36.840 --> 0:23:40.680 I thought right, and then I read precisely what they 0:23:40.800 --> 0:23:47.320 subpoened from Mark Meadows, not testimony. They subpoened the exact 0:23:47.600 --> 0:23:49.800 say wait, stick with me, though, this is where I 0:23:49.920 --> 0:23:53.560 was last night, exactly where you are. But I tried 0:23:53.600 --> 0:23:57.000 to step back into my prosecutorial days and figure out 0:23:57.000 --> 0:24:02.440 what was going on. So they subpoened exactly what Mark 0:24:02.520 --> 0:24:08.040 Meadows previously gave to Congress text, messages, emails, that whole 0:24:08.760 --> 0:24:14.000 thousand plus trunch of stuff, documents and messages and evidence. 0:24:14.720 --> 0:24:18.160 And I thought to myself, Okay, that doesn't really forward 0:24:18.200 --> 0:24:23.400 the information ball because Congress already has all that stuff 0:24:23.440 --> 0:24:27.440 from Mark Meadows before Mark Meadows jumped off the cooperation 0:24:27.840 --> 0:24:31.760 train and said, I'm not abiding by your subpoena for 0:24:31.880 --> 0:24:35.800 testimony for which Mark Meadows should have been indicted, because 0:24:36.040 --> 0:24:39.119 that's contempt of Congress that was referred by Congress to 0:24:39.160 --> 0:24:43.120 the Department of Justice for prosecution. And DJ said, yeah, 0:24:43.200 --> 0:24:46.159 we're not feeling it. We don't care that a crime 0:24:46.200 --> 0:24:49.520 was committed by an executive branch official against Congress. A 0:24:49.560 --> 0:24:52.960 coequal branch of government. We ain't indicting him. That is 0:24:53.000 --> 0:24:56.040 some bs right there, and that still angers me. But 0:24:56.160 --> 0:24:59.359 let me go back to the original point. I thought 0:24:59.359 --> 0:25:04.160 to myself, well, why would DJ only subpoena exactly what 0:25:04.200 --> 0:25:08.800 Congress already has here? Is why if we're building a 0:25:08.840 --> 0:25:12.879 criminal case in the grand jury, we don't want to 0:25:12.880 --> 0:25:15.560 be in a position if we have this great evidence, 0:25:15.600 --> 0:25:20.600 like incriminating text messages and emails from Mark Meadows talking 0:25:20.640 --> 0:25:24.120 to other Trump co conspirators and Trump, maybe Trump himself, 0:25:24.840 --> 0:25:27.920 we don't want to get that evidence from Congress. Why 0:25:28.080 --> 0:25:31.000 because then you have a chain of custody problem, and 0:25:31.080 --> 0:25:34.880 it's harder for us to introduce those things into evidence 0:25:35.000 --> 0:25:38.719 in court. We need to get them from the hot, 0:25:38.840 --> 0:25:44.480 grubby criminal hands of Mark Meadows. So they subpoenaed them 0:25:44.520 --> 0:25:47.840 directly from Mark Meadows, which does away with a chain 0:25:47.880 --> 0:25:51.239 of custody problem, where, oh, great evidence, We're gonna go 0:25:51.400 --> 0:25:53.760 get it from Congress and it's going to go through 0:25:53.800 --> 0:25:57.720 several hands and even though it originally came from Mark Meadows, 0:25:57.760 --> 0:26:01.760 we've got it now. That's an evidential read problem. So 0:26:01.800 --> 0:26:05.480 the way I read this subpoena, which on the surface 0:26:05.920 --> 0:26:12.520 seems like less than DJ should be subpoenaing. Is they're 0:26:12.560 --> 0:26:16.080 doing it for evidentiary reasons, I would perhaps be doing 0:26:16.119 --> 0:26:18.680 the same thing. Of course, I also would have indicted 0:26:18.680 --> 0:26:24.120 Mark Meadows long ago. So in terms of the other 0:26:24.200 --> 0:26:29.119 the rest of the cabal of surrounding Donald Trump, John 0:26:29.119 --> 0:26:33.320 Eastman's phone was also subpoena It isn't that correct? Right? 0:26:33.840 --> 0:26:35.320 Let me ask you this. I mean, I know that 0:26:35.359 --> 0:26:39.800 we're not tech people, but how are you subpoenaing themand's 0:26:39.880 --> 0:26:44.920 phone over almost two years later and thinking that this 0:26:45.320 --> 0:26:49.640 hasn't been wiped? Right? Like I just I'm confused about 0:26:50.680 --> 0:26:55.280 the timing and it being the only thing as opposed 0:26:55.320 --> 0:26:59.040 to I'm subpoena in all of your electronics, you know, 0:26:59.240 --> 0:27:03.240 Like I what do you make of that? Two points 0:27:03.240 --> 0:27:08.080 two observations? One, electronic footprints are forever. So the fact 0:27:08.080 --> 0:27:10.120 that there was stuff that we know should be on 0:27:10.160 --> 0:27:15.159 his phone that he deleted, that's actually incriminating information. But 0:27:15.280 --> 0:27:20.320 more importantly, John Eastman's crimes didn't stop on January sixth 0:27:20.440 --> 0:27:25.520 or January seventh. He continued, I'm convinced to crime, to 0:27:25.680 --> 0:27:29.480 cover up, to lie, to be engaged in a conspiracy 0:27:29.840 --> 0:27:32.439 to get away with the crimes he committed in trying 0:27:32.440 --> 0:27:37.240 to reinstall Donald Trump unconstitutionally for a second term. And 0:27:37.440 --> 0:27:41.879 all of that stuff continued. It continued, I believe, until 0:27:41.880 --> 0:27:45.480 the moment they seized his phone. So we don't know 0:27:45.880 --> 0:27:49.920
