It was not going well prior to his fall, 28 00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:38,319 Speaker 1: and it didn't even look like a trip. It looked 29 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:40,520 Speaker 1: like you just kind of collapsed. Did you see that, 30 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:44,480 Speaker 1: Like I fell forward?

So much of my whole. 37 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 1: Life fall ups, play. 38 00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 6: Falls up the stairs, he falls up, walking onto the plane, 39 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 6: he falls up. 40 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 1: No, he was just walking on a regular flat state. 41 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 5: It's ridiculous, though, I mean, he can't walk. 42 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 1: Look, I mean people can trip and fall, but I 43 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 1: mean the way he looks when he trips some fall 44 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 1: and the five people have lift him up. I mean, 45 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 1: and by and if the speech wasn't going well beforehand, 46 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 1: he said, oh, and by the way, I met with 47 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 1: who are who are those guys that are flying over shortly? 48 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 1: That's what he said. 49 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 6: I mean, it's so sad because their commencement. I mean, 50 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 6: it's just it's depressed. 51 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:29,840 Speaker 1: By the way I met with Who are those guys 52 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 1: that are flying over shortly? Who are those guys? Can 53 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:36,640 Speaker 1: we get a copy of that? Oh man? Anyway, we're 54 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:41,240 Speaker 1: in Iowa today. We have a big town hall tonight. 55 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 1: Donald J. Trump will be our guest in the beginning 56 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:48,080 Speaker 1: of hopefully a series of them. I mean, you know, 57 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:52,520 Speaker 1: we're now up to what I think nine. I guess 58 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 1: by the end of next week will be up to 59 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:58,639 Speaker 1: nine candidates that are running. For example, let me see 60 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:00,160 Speaker 1: if I can name them off the top of my 61 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,799 Speaker 1: head and be a little bit better than Joe Biden, 62 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,359 Speaker 1: because Joe Biden wouldn't be able to remember all this. 63 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 1: But if you include the people that we expect to 64 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 1: announce next week, that's Mike Pence and what's his name, Oh, 65 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 1: Chris Christy. Yeah, he's running for one reason. Chris Christie's 66 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 1: running just to be a thorn in Donald Trump's side. 67 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:24,679 Speaker 1: That is the only reason that he is running. He's 68 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 1: not running for any other reason. He's there. He wants 69 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:29,919 Speaker 1: to be a thorn on his side, and so he's 70 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,920 Speaker 1: going to run anyway, So all the presidential candidates except 71 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 1: basically Donald Trump. Also, the North Dakota governor will be 72 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 1: running as well, so that ought to be pretty interesting. 73 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 1: I don't think most people know who the guy is. 74 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 1: But with that said, it is what it is. It's 75 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 1: going to be at the Iowa Fairgrounds. You've not had 76 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 1: fun in life until you've been to an Iowa fair 77 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 1: They have the best food you'd ever want in your life. 78 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 1: They got fried everything. I like fried everything. I mean, 79 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 1: if I can eat. I'm on a diet, but if 80 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 1: I could eat the way I want to eat, I'd 81 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 1: have fried twinkies every day. If I could eat the 82 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 1: way I want to eat. I've had fried pork chops 83 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 1: every day. If I could eat the way I want 84 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 1: to eat, I've had fried or oreos. What what are 85 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: you looking at with the face? What's with the face? 86 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:18,159 Speaker 1: And if you ever tried it? You never tried it? No, 87 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 1: have you ever had a fried twinkie? You have, and 88 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 1: you didn't love it? Oh, you do love it? So 89 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 1: what's with the face? Did you have it? 90 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 6: What do I eat fried foods? I don't think you 91 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:31,160 Speaker 6: need to do anything more to a twinkie. It's already 92 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 6: fattening enough. I mean, good for you, if you want 93 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 6: to go for it. I mean, we are in a sauna, 94 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 6: so we're sweating it out. 95 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 5: So it's good. You can bring those twinkies. That's fine anyway. 96 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 1: So Ronda Santis will be there, Haley will be there, 97 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:47,360 Speaker 1: Tim Scott, Mike Pence, Ramaswami will be there, Asa Hutchinson, 98 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,039 Speaker 1: Perry Johnson, Larry Elder. They're all going to be on 99 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 1: this roasting ride with Jony Ernst this weekend. Later on, 100 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: Jony Ernst will check in with us. I can't hear you. 101 00:04:57,839 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 5: We have the audio. 102 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 1: Oh, let's play Biden. Those guys you know up there, 103 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 1: the guys by the way. 104 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 2: I met with Who are those guys that fly over shortly? 105 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 1: Yeah? 106 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:10,839 Speaker 3: Women? 107 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, who are those guys? 108 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:18,360 Speaker 3: Don't screw around guys. 109 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:21,599 Speaker 1: Yeah, don't screw around guys. 110 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:22,359 Speaker 5: Women. 111 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 1: He doesn't know how, No, they don't. Anyway, it's still 112 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:31,280 Speaker 1: fall seventy one votes against the UH the Compromise Debt 113 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:38,960 Speaker 1: ceiling increased bill. And look, I understand that that Kevin McCarthy, 114 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 1: I guess he rolled the dice here, but I don't 115 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 1: know if there's going to be any action by the 116 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:46,480 Speaker 1: seventy one. I know that the twenty nine Freedom Caucus 117 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 1: members were hard and not happy at all. I think 118 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: if if I would have labeled the mistake, I stayed 119 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 1: where I was yesterday, and that was Kevin McCarthy, in 120 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:59,840 Speaker 1: my view, did not communicate well enough to his caucus 121 00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 1: the things that were being discussed, and you know, maybe 122 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 1: it was afraid of leaks. I have no idea, but anyway, 123 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 1: so being in Iowa, it just means that the twenty 124 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:12,919 Speaker 1: twenty fourth presidential election really is up and running and starting. 125 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,280 Speaker 1: By the way, there was a judicial I just want 126 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:18,480 Speaker 1: to give you a media check. You know, with all 127 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:23,120 Speaker 1: of sudden media hysteria over this alleged tape showing Donald 128 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:26,120 Speaker 1: Trump knew one of the documents that he took at 129 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 1: mar A Lago was classified, it might be a good 130 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,920 Speaker 1: time to go back, if my memory serves me right 131 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:36,160 Speaker 1: here for a little legal reality check, because you know, 132 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 1: Trump has all these investigations. We know the album bradcase 133 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:40,480 Speaker 1: is going to be tried right in the middle of 134 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:46,040 Speaker 1: the primary in March, and then we're waiting sometime in August, 135 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 1: perhaps that that Fanny Willis in Fulton County, Georgia may 136 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,799 Speaker 1: act and come up with some indictment of the President. 137 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:58,200 Speaker 1: Then you've got down in of course Marra a Lago 138 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: with the Mari a Lago raid and the doc document 139 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: issue in the January sixth issue that the Special Council 140 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,480 Speaker 1: is looking into. Has anyone ever heard one thing that 141 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 1: the Special Council looking into Joe Biden's top secret classified 142 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 1: document scandal? Have we heard one thing that that guy's doing, 143 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 1: because I haven't not a single word. All you hear 144 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 1: about is the one looking into Donald Trump anyway. So 145 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 1: if this is where they're heading, and they're looking for 146 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 1: an indictment over the handling of classified information, well that 147 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 1: probably would have to overcome a legal precedent set by 148 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 1: an anti Trump judge. Remember we've talked a lot about 149 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:39,240 Speaker 1: Amy Berman Jackson because in twenty twelve she issued a 150 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 1: ruling in a similar case where Bill Clinton was accused 151 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 1: of mishandling classified documents. And according to the president set 152 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:50,560 Speaker 1: by Judge Jackson, presidents have the absolute authority to classify 153 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 1: any documents that they want to, and there's no set 154 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 1: procedure that they are required to follow in the declassification process. Now, 155 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 1: this is going to be problematic if that's where you 156 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 1: know they end up going with that case. I couldn't 157 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 1: think of any three worst jurisdictions if you're a conservative 158 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 1: or Republican, then New York City, Washington, d C. And 159 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 1: Fulton County, Georgia. But that's where they headed. So when 160 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:19,679 Speaker 1: you know, President Trump is mocked by the media saying 161 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 1: that he had the right to declassified documents merely by 162 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 1: deciding to remove them from the White House, that would 163 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 1: seem to be backed up by the president in the 164 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 1: Clinton case, scept by Judge Jackson back in twenty twelve. 165 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,439 Speaker 1: That ruling, by the way, was never appealed, let alone overturned. 166 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 1: Just some background. The case in questioned is Judicial Watch 167 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 1: versus the National Archives and Record Administration. That involved an 168 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:49,679 Speaker 1: effort by the conservative watchdog group to compel the Archives 169 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 1: to forcibly seize hours of audio recordings that Bill Clinton 170 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 1: made during his presidency with historian Taylor Branch. The US 171 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:03,600 Speaker 1: Judge Alti rejected the suit, concluding there was no provision 172 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 1: in the Presidential Records Act to force the National Archives 173 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 1: to seize records from the former president. But Jackson's ruling, 174 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:15,560 Speaker 1: along with the Justice Department's arguments that preceded it, you know, 175 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 1: made other sweeping declarations that have the most direct relevance 176 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 1: in the Trump case, and the most relevant declaration was 177 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:27,679 Speaker 1: that a president's it is the president's discretion on what 178 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 1: is personal versus what is official, you know, in terms 179 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 1: of records, and that's pretty far reaching and solely the 180 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 1: president's as is his ability to declassify or destroy records 181 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 1: at will quote. Under the statutory scheme established by the 182 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:51,719 Speaker 1: Presidential Records Act, the decision to segregate personal materials from 183 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 1: presidential records is made by the president during the president's 184 00:09:55,880 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 1: term and in his sole discretion, Jackson wrote, which was 185 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:06,199 Speaker 1: never appealed. Jackson also concluded that a decision to challenge 186 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:10,200 Speaker 1: the president's decision lies solely with the National Archives and 187 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 1: cannot be reviewed by a court. If the Archives wants 188 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 1: to challenge a decision, that agency and the Attorney General 189 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:20,960 Speaker 1: can initiate an enforcement mechanism under the law, but it 190 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:25,080 Speaker 1: is a civil procedure and has no criminal penalty. She 191 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:29,600 Speaker 1: noted on the classification issue of both presidents George W. 192 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:33,240 Speaker 1: Bush and Barack Obama, you know, signed executive orders that 193 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 1: remain in forced to this day, declaring that presidents have 194 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 1: sweeping authority to declassify secrets. And that they do not 195 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 1: have to follow the mandatory declassification procedures that all government 196 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 1: officials do. I mean, that gets pretty interesting, doesn't it 197 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 1: at that particular time. But you know, so a lot 198 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 1: of questions are being raised now that really today, you know, 199 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:01,319 Speaker 1: we begin in earnest in terms of this radio program 200 00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:07,839 Speaker 1: and our TV program tonight, to follow this presidential primary race. Interestingly, 201 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:13,880 Speaker 1: we're in Iowa. The Democrats decided to you know, break 202 00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:17,079 Speaker 1: with tradition and no longer go to the Iowa caucuses 203 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 1: first or New Hampshire first. They want to start in 204 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:24,040 Speaker 1: South Carolina because we know that that most favors Joe Biden, 205 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 1: and you know, with people like Robert F. Kennedy Junior 206 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 1: is showing twenty percent in the polls. By the way, 207 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:34,720 Speaker 1: mary Ann Williamson, Mary Ann Williamson, no offense. I mean, 208 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:37,040 Speaker 1: I don't dislike her. She seems like a nice lady, 209 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 1: but you know, a little bit nutty in terms of 210 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 1: some of her views, the new age views that I 211 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:47,080 Speaker 1: don't exactly agree with. But anyway, she's got ten percent 212 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 1: in the polls. That's thirty percent of Democrats would rather 213 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 1: go with Mary Ann Williamson or Robert F. Kennedy Junior 214 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 1: over Joe Biden, who just fell on his flat on 215 00:11:57,400 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 1: his face and said one of the dumbest things I've 216 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:03,360 Speaker 1: ever heard of. President say, by the way, I met 217 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 1: with those guys that are flying that fly over shortly. No, 218 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:09,559 Speaker 1: by the way, I met with who are those guys 219 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 1: that fly over shortly? Because he didn't know. So it 220 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:17,760 Speaker 1: reminds me, reminds me of Obama. Remember he said Navy corpseman, 221 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:22,080 Speaker 1: Navy corpseman, not once, not t not three times. Maybe 222 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 1: corpsemen and Navy corpsmen again. Now this is the commander 223 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 1: in chief that doesn't know that the word is Corman 224 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 1: all around the world. 225 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 4: Navy corpseman, Christian Corps and lying on a gurney aboard 226 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 4: the USNS comfort a woman asked, Christopher, where do you 227 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:42,960 Speaker 4: come from? What country? And in creole corpse Membershard responded 228 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 4: in Tanzini, the United States of America. 229 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:50,960 Speaker 1: Navy corpseman said that, I mean he took a dive. 230 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:52,959 Speaker 1: I have to show it on TV tonight. I got 231 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 1: to put it on Hannity on the Fox News Channel. 232 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 1: Oh what's that? Oh we'll put it on our website 233 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:00,959 Speaker 1: Hannity dot com. You want to see the video. I 234 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 1: mean he fell flat down, I mean boom, And it 235 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:06,840 Speaker 1: didn't look like he tripped. I didn't see anything that 236 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 1: he could trip on. Did anyone to see anything you 237 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:10,680 Speaker 1: good trip on? I didn't see anything you could trip on. 238 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:14,680 Speaker 1: By the way I met with those guys that fly 239 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:18,960 Speaker 1: over shortly, you really can. 240 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 2: By the way I've met with of those guys that 241 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:23,079 Speaker 2: fly over shortly. 242 00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:26,960 Speaker 3: I heard him, haven't three of them are women? 243 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:32,400 Speaker 1: Oh? 244 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 3: I don't screw around guys. 245 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 1: Three of them? What are those names of those people 246 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,320 Speaker 1: up there in the airplanes? What do you call those 247 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,720 Speaker 1: fighter jets? Something like that. I don't know, no idea. 248 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 1: I'm only the president, I'm the commander in chief. San 249 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,319 Speaker 1: Francisco lost a whopping seven point five percent of the 250 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:54,520 Speaker 1: population in just the last two years. Now, how many 251 00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:56,760 Speaker 1: of you think that that's not complicated to figure out? 252 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 1: Do you think maybe it has to do with the 253 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 1: out of control homelessness problem? People taking over entire street, 254 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:09,600 Speaker 1: shooting up drugs, defecating in the street, urinating in the street. 255 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,679 Speaker 1: Do you think maybe it has some little itsy bitsy 256 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,240 Speaker 1: thing to do with that at all? Maybe I'm just guessing. 257 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:17,960 Speaker 1: I don't know that's a wild guess, right, probably crazy 258 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:22,280 Speaker 1: on my part. Seven point five percent in a single 259 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 1: in two years. I mean, it's unreal. Anyway, we're in Iowa. 260 00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 1: We have President Trump for our town hall tonight, Hannity 261 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:35,600 Speaker 1: nine Eastern DVR, Fox News.

That's a big number. Is it 266 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 1: going to be fallout? I don't know. I can't tell you. 267 00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 1: All Right, We're in Iowa town hall tonight, President Trump, 268 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 1: if you're just joining us.

He was at the Air Force Academy today. 270 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:10,280 Speaker 1: While he was addressing the cadets or the you know, 271 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 1: we're the graduating group, he said, by the way I 272 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:17,480 Speaker 1: met with, who are those guys flying over shortly?

He took a hard fall, I mean a 278 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:32,040 Speaker 1: big time hard fall. By the way, I have a 279 00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:35,520 Speaker 1: message for Governor Abbott and Texas and any other border 280 00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 1: state governor. If your taxpayers are tired of paying Joe 281 00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:44,240 Speaker 1: Biden's illegal immigration bill, you can start shipping all of 282 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,960 Speaker 1: your illegal immigrants now.

And to California, now send them to Minnesota. 284 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 1: Because Democrats in Minnesota apparently love paying for illegal immigrants. 285 00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 1: How do I know that? Under Minnesota Free Tuition program 286 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 1: dubbed North Star Promise, illegal immigrants will have their full 287 00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:09,920 Speaker 1: tuition paid if they enroll in a two or four 288 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 1: year program with the University of Minnesota or Minnesota state 289 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:17,720 Speaker 1: systems and come a household with an income of eighty 290 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 1: grand or less.

Listen, the spa side is very nice. 338 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,000 Speaker 1: Apparently we all can. Everybody gets a trophy. 339 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,159 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, you're right. If I could only fall like Biden, 340 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:32,959 Speaker 5: I'll hope to do that. 341 00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 1: Man, that was a bad fall today. Oh I'm going 342 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:36,920 Speaker 1: to show it again and again. 343 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:38,520 Speaker 5: Another Biden bumble. 344 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:41,440 Speaker 1: Another Biden fumble bumble. But go ahead, he's the worst. 345 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:43,560 Speaker 5: But yeah, the SPA's amazing. I love it. The master 346 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:44,440 Speaker 5: spas great. 347 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 6: Easy clean, easy to maintain, easy to use, something for everybody. 348 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:50,200 Speaker 6: And it's year round.

It's masterspas dot com. And 358 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 1: you're not gonna regret it. Look, we'll have a debate 359 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:24,880 Speaker 1: later in the program the fallout of this negotiation over 360 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 1: raising the debt ceiling. In the end, if I had 361 00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 1: to guess the twenty nine Republicans that voted not to 362 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 1: advance the bill in the House yesterday, they are the 363 00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:41,840 Speaker 1: most hardcore. They are the ones that are like dead 364 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:45,959 Speaker 1: set against this this agreement to raise the debt ceiling. 365 00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:52,399 Speaker 1: From my perspective, it's basic math. It's simple. It's the 366 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:56,240 Speaker 1: Republicans had done their job, and I knew the pressure 367 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,280 Speaker 1: the temperature was going to rise very quickly. It always does. 368 00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:03,639 Speaker 1: It's Washington, DC. But that doesn't matter to me. You know, 369 00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:07,040 Speaker 1: when the Republicans passed what was a limit saved grow 370 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:10,640 Speaker 1: their bill, it was a really, really well thought out bill. 371 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:13,920 Speaker 1: It was not an onerous bill that had impact on 372 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:18,160 Speaker 1: the economy, but it absolutely would have impact on spending 373 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:20,919 Speaker 1: because we can't continue to rack up thirty one trillion 374 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:24,200 Speaker 1: dollars in debt and expect to be solvent as a country. 375 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 1: So and I know Kevin McCarthy feels there are a 376 00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 1: lot of wins now that's scored out by the CBO 377 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 1: at what four point eight trillion dollars in savings. This 378 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:37,400 Speaker 1: compromise bill is two point one. A lot of the 379 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 1: COVID clawback money did not get clawed back, most of it, 380 00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:45,200 Speaker 1: in fact, did not. The work requirements for people that 381 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:48,440 Speaker 1: get financial assistance from the government are minimal and weak 382 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 1: at best. And the you know, if you look at 383 00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 1: the eighty billion dollars they had allocated for the irs, 384 00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:57,200 Speaker 1: all right, there's not going to be a dollar spent 385 00:20:57,320 --> 00:21:01,160 Speaker 1: this year. That doesn't stop next year. And the other 386 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:03,199 Speaker 1: thing that I didn't like is that they moved it 387 00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 1: to two years now, the most important thing was defunding 388 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 1: the IRS agents. I think they could have won that. 389 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:13,199 Speaker 1: That's my take. And if I would say, you know, 390 00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 1: give advice to McCarthy, I think the thing that shocked 391 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:18,959 Speaker 1: me the most is that so many in the caucus 392 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:21,959 Speaker 1: felt that they were left out of the loop. They 393 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:26,119 Speaker 1: weren't a part of the process. In other words, if 394 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:28,400 Speaker 1: I had a four vote majority and I was Speaker, 395 00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:30,679 Speaker 1: and by the way, that's the worst job in the world, 396 00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 1: you'd never want to be Speaker of the House. Because 397 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:35,679 Speaker 1: you got not only the Freedom Caucus, you got the 398 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 1: Sunday group, the Monday group, the Tuesday group, the study group, 399 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:42,199 Speaker 1: to this group, to that group. You know, there's so 400 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:45,879 Speaker 1: many varying factions and they all draw their individual lines 401 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 1: in the sand. And when you have only two hundred 402 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:51,680 Speaker 1: and twenty two as your number in the majority, that's 403 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 1: not big enough margin to be playing around. It has 404 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:57,240 Speaker 1: to be a unified caucus. The only way you unify 405 00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:01,080 Speaker 1: a caucus is to talk and discuss any concessions that 406 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 1: you might make during negotiations. But we'll get to both 407 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:07,119 Speaker 1: sides of that at the top of the hour. But 408 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:12,159 Speaker 1: the House passed the bills to suspend thirty one trillion 409 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:16,199 Speaker 1: dollar debt ceiling. They're raising it by four trillion. We 410 00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:19,520 Speaker 1: should be having this debate again next year. The Republican 411 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:22,120 Speaker 1: bill would have brought it back again to the public 412 00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:27,800 Speaker 1: view by next year, but they didn't do it. Now Liberals, 413 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:29,920 Speaker 1: by the way, they're not doing faring any better on 414 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:32,600 Speaker 1: any of this. They're all killing each other. None of 415 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 1: them seem to like it either, not that I can 416 00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:39,879 Speaker 1: blame them. So we'll watch, wait and see. We have 417 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:44,119 Speaker 1: Jim Comer also coming up on the program today. You know, 418 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:47,879 Speaker 1: I'm not sure what happened. I mean, every single source 419 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:51,639 Speaker 1: I had weeks ago was telling me the arrest of 420 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:56,719 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden is the imminent and it hasn't happened. And 421 00:22:56,760 --> 00:23:00,359 Speaker 1: I keep watching, and I'm like, this is the biggist 422 00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:02,520 Speaker 1: shell game I think I've ever seen in my life. 423 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:06,840 Speaker 1: I mean, they are now talking about potentially with Donald Trump, 424 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:10,040 Speaker 1: not only the New York case, which they scheduled a 425 00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:13,800 Speaker 1: trial right in the middle of the Republican primary next 426 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:17,399 Speaker 1: year in March. Huh. I think that's a coincidence. I 427 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:20,640 Speaker 1: really don't. And by the way, if you like Rond 428 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:22,800 Speaker 1: de Santis or any other candidate. Let me just let 429 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 1: me just make you very keenly aware that whoever the 430 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:35,840 Speaker 1: Republican nominee eventually is, that person is going to be smeared, slandered, besmirched, attacked. 431 00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:39,040 Speaker 1: I mean they're going to try to tear them down 432 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:42,959 Speaker 1: limb from limb and destroy them and I mean destroy 433 00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:46,720 Speaker 1: them by any means necessary politically, and that means the 434 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 1: same shenanigans that they pulled on Trump with the phony 435 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:53,880 Speaker 1: Russia collusion hoax. That's all fair game. We've now gone 436 00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 1: through two presidential cycles where we know that the deep state, 437 00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 1: FBI and even in twenty twenty, the CIA were involved 438 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:06,119 Speaker 1: in efforts to put cinderblocks on the scale of a 439 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:09,879 Speaker 1: presidential election in favor of their candidate, you know. So, 440 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:13,120 Speaker 1: and then every time we find out about Biden, well 441 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:14,880 Speaker 1: it never seems to come out the way we think 442 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:18,240 Speaker 1: it's going to come out, you know. And anyway, so yesterday, 443 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:20,639 Speaker 1: and we'll get more details from James Comer at the 444 00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 1: top of the next hour. But James Comer, you know, 445 00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:26,960 Speaker 1: he told me last night they had already seen the 446 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 1: letter when they were asking Director Ray, he was asking 447 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:36,959 Speaker 1: and ironically, Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley was asking the FBI 448 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:40,439 Speaker 1: director for the letter for a ten twenty three form, 449 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:45,159 Speaker 1: which they believe is from a credible witness that alleges 450 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:49,240 Speaker 1: that Joe Biden performed certain acts as vice president in 451 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:54,040 Speaker 1: exchange for five million dollars. That's a lot of money 452 00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 1: that is handed over there, a lot of money. And 453 00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:00,159 Speaker 1: my question is, huh, I wonder if this was the 454 00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 1: Trump what might happen, because I think it would be 455 00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:05,760 Speaker 1: a very different outcome and a very different reaction and 456 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 1: a very different response. But the Biden White House, they're 457 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:12,600 Speaker 1: just circling the wagons around Christopher Ray. You know, Christopher 458 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:14,440 Speaker 1: Ray now is about to be held in contempt to 459 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:18,200 Speaker 1: Congress because he won't cooperate with the House Government Reform 460 00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:21,400 Speaker 1: and Oversight Committee. That is their job. So I had 461 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 1: Comer on last night and I said, well, it appears 462 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:27,280 Speaker 1: according to reports that in his phone call that he 463 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:31,639 Speaker 1: and Grassley had with Chris Ray yesterday that Chris Ray 464 00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:36,960 Speaker 1: capitulated and said he would allow them to see the document, 465 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 1: but it would have to be in closed quarters, in 466 00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:44,119 Speaker 1: a skiff or some secure location. All all right, Well, 467 00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:46,280 Speaker 1: what's bad about that? Because the ten twenty three form 468 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:50,639 Speaker 1: is not necessarily cooperated or confirmed. I think the bigger 469 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:52,640 Speaker 1: question is when did they get the ten twenty three? 470 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:55,159 Speaker 1: When were they made aware of this document? When did 471 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 1: they know about the document? What do they do about 472 00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:00,159 Speaker 1: the document? Considering both Grassley and Comer think this is 473 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:06,000 Speaker 1: a credible allegation anyway, so they the important words came 474 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:09,520 Speaker 1: flying out of Jim Comer's mouth. I rarely get surprised 475 00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:12,359 Speaker 1: by any guests that I'm interviewing. Why because it's my 476 00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:14,880 Speaker 1: job to know more than them, and to have read 477 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:17,600 Speaker 1: more than them about the news of the day and 478 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,480 Speaker 1: what's happening. I read a bunch of articles yesterday about 479 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:24,920 Speaker 1: the phone call between Grassley and Calmer and Director Ray, 480 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 1: and not one of them said that the document that 481 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:31,840 Speaker 1: he would be willing to now share in private would 482 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:35,960 Speaker 1: be redacted. Well, that makes a big distinction. That's a 483 00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:39,880 Speaker 1: big difference. If it's redacted, redacted could mean you only 484 00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:44,040 Speaker 1: see three words on a page. Now. He even told 485 00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:48,120 Speaker 1: Director Ray that they've seen the document, they know what's 486 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:51,439 Speaker 1: on the document, they find it to be credible, and 487 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 1: they want the FBI. It's their job. This is what 488 00:26:55,440 --> 00:27:00,840 Speaker 1: the Oversight Committee is. Congress is tasked with o site 489 00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:04,720 Speaker 1: of an administration. That is what their job is. And 490 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:08,280 Speaker 1: if the FBI is not cooperating, well, the next step 491 00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 1: is to hold them in contempt of Congress, which is 492 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:14,199 Speaker 1: exactly the direction that this was heading in. But you 493 00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 1: got the Biden Whitehouse circling the wagons. They love Christopher Ray, 494 00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 1: they love Attorney General Merrick Garland. That's why they don't 495 00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 1: like that the Jim Jordan Committee hearings are going on. 496 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:28,520 Speaker 1: That's investigating whether the FBI is politicized and the DOJ's weaponized. 497 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:31,840 Speaker 1: But they're now in the Biden Whitehouse leading the battle 498 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:35,360 Speaker 1: to bury the evidence of Biden family corruption at least 499 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:39,160 Speaker 1: until after the twenty twenty four election. That sounds exactly 500 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:42,399 Speaker 1: like what they wanted in the twenty twenty election, which 501 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:44,919 Speaker 1: is why the FBI, even though they had a copy 502 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:49,919 Speaker 1: of Hunter Biden's laptop in twenty nineteen and authenticated it 503 00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 1: at the latest the spring of twenty twenty, sent in 504 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:58,880 Speaker 1: late you know, summer, early early fall, and the lead 505 00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:02,359 Speaker 1: up to the election, FBI agents to meet weekly with 506 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:06,120 Speaker 1: big tech companies. Why because they were telling big tech companies, 507 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 1: you might be the victim of a misinformation campaign, and 508 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:12,040 Speaker 1: it might be about Joe and Hunter Biden. Oh, so 509 00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:16,640 Speaker 1: they were pre bunking, not debunking, pre bunking a story 510 00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:18,800 Speaker 1: that they knew pretty damn well was going to come out. 511 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 1: And that was they knew that they knew Steve Bannon 512 00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:24,080 Speaker 1: had I'm sorry, Rudy Giuliani had a copy of it. 513 00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 1: Rudy Juliani at the time was Donald Trump's attorney. Now 514 00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:33,800 Speaker 1: I remember at the time because they were all sorts 515 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 1: of allegations being made about what was on the laptop, 516 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:43,360 Speaker 1: and I had an opportunity at one point to get it, 517 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:48,800 Speaker 1: and my lawyers had a fit because of all, do 518 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:52,960 Speaker 1: you realize that if you have in your possession, even 519 00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:59,160 Speaker 1: for journalistic purposes, Hunter Biden's laptop, and on that laptop, 520 00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:03,840 Speaker 1: let's say they were there is something sexually age inappropriate, 521 00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 1: which had been an allegation that had not been confirmed 522 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:09,920 Speaker 1: to my knowledge, on the laptop, and that was making 523 00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:12,320 Speaker 1: the rounds. Everybody had heard that that might be on 524 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 1: the laptop and that I could get in trouble just 525 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:19,320 Speaker 1: for being in possession of it, even though I'm using 526 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:22,160 Speaker 1: it for my job. And that was the argument that 527 00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 1: my lawyers were making to me, and they said, no, 528 00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 1: it's not worth it. Let a big organization get it. 529 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:30,720 Speaker 1: They'll go through it and you can take a taken 530 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:33,240 Speaker 1: from there, you know. I mean in life, there's certain 531 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:35,160 Speaker 1: people that you can't lie to and you have to 532 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:37,280 Speaker 1: listen to. You can't lie to your doctor you have 533 00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:39,800 Speaker 1: chest pain. No, I don't have any chest pain. Meanwhile, 534 00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 1: your chest is about to jump out of you know, 535 00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:43,800 Speaker 1: your heart's about to jump out of your chest. Not 536 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,880 Speaker 1: a good idea to lie to your doctor. Not a 537 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 1: good idea to lie to your lawyers either, Yeah, might 538 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:51,440 Speaker 1: as well tell them the truth or else they can't 539 00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:54,680 Speaker 1: really defend you, right, Not a good idea to light 540 00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:58,680 Speaker 1: to your your pastor or your priest or whoever, your 541 00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:01,760 Speaker 1: spiritual who ever is, might as well tell them the 542 00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:05,360 Speaker 1: truth too. And in an ideal world, you probably don't 543 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:07,600 Speaker 1: want to lie to the most significant other person in 544 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:11,080 Speaker 1: your life. Just play it straight, tell the truth, own it. 545 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:14,280 Speaker 1: If you make a mistake, move on if they let you. 546 00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:19,560 Speaker 1: If it's Linda, forget it. There's no taking any any foot, 547 00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 1: all that high heels, not that high heels, not coming 548 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:24,680 Speaker 1: off at anybody's neck. I don't even want to hear it. 549 00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:26,920 Speaker 5: I haven't done silent treatment in at least a week. 550 00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 1: At least a week at least What was the longest 551 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 1: you did the silent treatment to me? How do you 552 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 1: know of the exact time. 553 00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 5: I keep a record of these things. That's my job. 554 00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 1: Anyway. Now we've got this other issue coming up here. 555 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:43,880 Speaker 1: Do you know that they're planning to build a new 556 00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:48,720 Speaker 1: FBI headquarters. The FBI headquarters that they're planning to build 557 00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:53,040 Speaker 1: with your money is twice the size of the Pentagon. 558 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 1: The same FBI now that puts cinderblocks on two presidential elections. 559 00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:02,160 Speaker 1: The same FBI that offer Christopher Steele a million dollars 560 00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:05,760 Speaker 1: if he can corroborate his own dossier. He couldn't corroborate it. 561 00:31:06,040 --> 00:31:08,640 Speaker 1: But they signed off on four or fives of warrants 562 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:13,440 Speaker 1: that said verified when Christopher Steele couldn't verify it prior 563 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:16,400 Speaker 1: to them signing off on the first warrant? Are you 564 00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:16,920 Speaker 1: kidding me? 565 00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 4: No? 566 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:22,560 Speaker 1: How about instead of spending billions, how about we clean 567 00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:25,960 Speaker 1: out the seventh floor of the current FBI and we 568 00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:29,200 Speaker 1: bring in new leadership, and we get the FBI and 569 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:32,600 Speaker 1: bring it back to its former greatness as the world's 570 00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:37,160 Speaker 1: premier law enforcement agency. And then maybe we'll talk about 571 00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:41,880 Speaker 1: a new building bigger than the Pentagon. Yeah, and this 572 00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:44,880 Speaker 1: one is twice the size of the Pentagon. You know, 573 00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:48,680 Speaker 1: from my standpoint, the scale of this FBI headquarters. By 574 00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:51,240 Speaker 1: the way, it's described as larger not only twice the 575 00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:55,680 Speaker 1: size of the Pentagon, it's larger than the Vatican. I mean, seriously, 576 00:31:56,600 --> 00:32:00,880 Speaker 1: you know, No, the Republicans need to eliminate funding for 577 00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:05,160 Speaker 1: that FBI building because it is itself a corrupt institution 578 00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 1: as of now in terms of the top leadership that 579 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:11,280 Speaker 1: should not be allowed to create a taj Mah Hall 580 00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:15,680 Speaker 1: and hide themselves in this huge bureaucratic palace. Neke Gingrid 581 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:18,360 Speaker 1: sent me that line. I stole it, but I mean 582 00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:22,960 Speaker 1: he's right that we should not be buying and building 583 00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:27,200 Speaker 1: a new FBI headquarters. No, thank you. Anyway, We're in Iowa, 584 00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 1: Donald Trump tonight nine Eastern Fox News town Hall, looking 585 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:33,680 Speaker 1: forward to seeing so many of you.
