1
00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:03,760
Speaker 1: All right, So let's start with the big news, and

2
00:00:03,760 --> 00:00:07,080
Speaker 1: that is Matt Gates has withdrawn his name from consideration

3
00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:13,160
Speaker 1: for attorney general nomination. The former Representative Matt Gates, Republican

4
00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:17,000
Speaker 1: from Florida, formally withdrew his name for consideration for the

5
00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:20,840
Speaker 1: attorney general position and President, like Donald Trump's incoming administration,

6
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:26,840
Speaker 1: there is no time to wait on a producted Washington scuffle.

7
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:31,120
Speaker 1: Had excellent meetings with senators, he said yesterday. I appreciate

8
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:35,000
Speaker 1: their thoughtful feedback and the incredible support of so many.

9
00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:38,240
Speaker 1: Gates went on to say his nomination and become quote

10
00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:41,519
Speaker 1: too much of a distraction, and therefore he is withdrawing

11
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:45,800
Speaker 1: his name from consideration for the highly sought position, saying this,

12
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:47,960
Speaker 1: while the momentum was strong, it is clear that my

13
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:51,760
Speaker 1: confirmation was unfairly becoming a distraction to the critical work

14
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:53,280
Speaker 1: of the Trump Vans administration.

15
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 2: There's no time to waste on a needlessly protracted Washington scuffles.

16
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 1: I will draw my name from consideration to serve as

17
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:08,080
Speaker 1: the attorney general, he announced. Trump Trump's doj must be

18
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:10,400
Speaker 1: in a place and ready on must be in place

19
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:12,560
Speaker 1: and ready on day one, he said, adding that he

20
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:15,399
Speaker 1: remains fully committed to see that Donald Trump is the

21
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:18,560
Speaker 1: most successful president in history, saying this, I will forever

22
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:21,120
Speaker 1: be honored the President Trump nominated me to lead the

23
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:24,960
Speaker 1: Department of Justice, and I'm certain he will save America.

24
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 1: Now let's talk about the politics behind this, and there's

25
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 1: several different theories. I'm going to give you the one

26
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 1: that I think is the most accurate. All Right, Matt

27
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:38,759
Speaker 1: Gates knew that the ethics report on him was coming out,

28
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:45,679
Speaker 1: and the ethics investigation in the House was going to

29
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 1: be brutal. It was going to be really really bad,

30
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 1: all right.

31
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 2: It was just going to be tough.

32
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:56,360
Speaker 1: And I think what actually happened here is Gates went

33
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 1: to President Trump and said, hey, I need your help.

34
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,040
Speaker 1: Can you name me to something so I can resign

35
00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 1: before this report comes out? Because if I resigned from Congress,

36
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:11,680
Speaker 1: then the report should not come out. So my gut

37
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 1: is is that Trump said, hey, I got you here.

38
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,480
Speaker 1: You've been a good soldier. I'm going to do you

39
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,360
Speaker 1: a solid here. I'm going to announce you. It'll it'll

40
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:23,399
Speaker 1: make the left just go insane. It also politically could

41
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:25,920
Speaker 1: have not been a bad move from a strategy position.

42
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 1: All the attention went on Gates, and the attention that

43
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:31,960
Speaker 1: was going on Pete Headseth and others that they were

44
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 1: wanting to attack disappeared. And so I think that may

45
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,560
Speaker 1: have been a political reason why Donald Trump did this

46
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 1: as well. So he went and had his meetings on

47
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:47,680
Speaker 1: Capitol Hill. He went and had his meetings with some sinners.

48
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 1: I know they said, Look, it was very cordial. They

49
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:51,080
Speaker 1: were pretty honest with them, like, hey, dude, this is

50
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 1: going to be an uphill battle. And jd Vance was

51
00:02:54,080 --> 00:03:01,400
Speaker 1: there with him. Jd Vance not only was jd Vance

52
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,040
Speaker 1: with him kind of to lead him through babysit, but

53
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 1: I also think to read the room, and he probably

54
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 1: went back to President Trump and said, hey, it's time

55
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:12,280
Speaker 1: to pull this.

56
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 2: There's no way in hell this is gonna happen.

57
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,119
Speaker 1: There is no way he's going to get confirmed, there

58
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 1: is no way that this is possibly going to take place,

59
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 1: and so it's time for us just to kind of say, okay,

60
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:25,960
Speaker 1: let's move on.

61
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:27,680
Speaker 2: And that's exactly what they did.

62
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 1: I also think it was clear that this was something

63
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 1: that may have been pre planned because they knew and

64
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 1: they had instantly ready to go. Pambondy, who is actually

65
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 1: I think a great pick the AG down in Florida.

66
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,680
Speaker 1: This is someone that knows Trump well. She has supported

67
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:52,280
Speaker 1: President Trump, she was an advocate for him, campaigned for him,

68
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 1: and Pambondy is someone that I have no doubt will

69
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:58,720
Speaker 1: get confirmed. She also has led an entire state that,

70
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 1: by the way, took of the federal government.

71
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:03,839
Speaker 2: If you look at what Pambondy.

72
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,560
Speaker 1: Did, much like the AG did in Texas, they were

73
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 1: defending the rights of the of people in their states

74
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 1: and they were taking on and suing the federal government.

75
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:18,760
Speaker 1: They were literally suing the Biden administration. Pam Bondy had

76
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 1: no problem doing that. I think it's important that your

77
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:26,279
Speaker 1: age actually runs a group of lawyers, understands bureaucracy, understands

78
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:31,920
Speaker 1: how Washington works, understands how government works. From that perspective

79
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:34,040
Speaker 1: that something that by the way, Matt Gates did not have.

80
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:35,840
Speaker 2: Running a congressional office is.

81
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 1: Very different, okay, is extremely different than running a bureaucracy

82
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:46,919
Speaker 1: of in a in a large group of lawyers that

83
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:50,599
Speaker 1: are fighting or advocating for the state. I think Pam

84
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 1: will do an excellent job. I think that Pambondy is

85
00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:58,480
Speaker 1: going to be somebody that that the senators who met

86
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 1: with Matt Gates are going to walk in going this

87
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 1: is a breath of fresh air. So I think there

88
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:07,919
Speaker 1: was a lot of this that were a lot of

89
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:09,600
Speaker 1: this that was political theater.

90
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 2: As they call it.

91
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,440
Speaker 1: And I do think having all the attention on Matt

92
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 1: Gates probably helped some of these other nominees like headset

93
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 1: than others, Like I really do. I think there's a

94
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:25,000
Speaker 1: very good chance that this was a very smart and

95
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:30,560
Speaker 1: deliberate move, that was a move that made an awful

96
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 1: lot of sense. And now we move on. Now you

97
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,360
Speaker 1: look at Bondi and I think she's going to be

98
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:42,480
Speaker 1: an individual that is going to be able to come

99
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 1: in there and understand what she's up against because she

100
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 1: has literally fought in a very very significant way the

101
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:58,360
Speaker 1: deep state and will understand what she's walking into as

102
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:01,200
Speaker 1: the attorney general under the I mean she was down

103
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,359
Speaker 1: there when the raids were happening on mar Lago to

104
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:10,040
Speaker 1: put it in perspective here, and so the media, you know,

105
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 1: Al Sharpton this morning said body is on the right,

106
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:15,360
Speaker 1: but she is one who has qualified to become the

107
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:20,400
Speaker 1: attorney general. So if you're getting that statement from the

108
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 1: radical left, I think it's very clear they're like, this

109
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 1: is a woman who's a professional, who doesn't have baggage,

110
00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 1: who's a qualified lawyer.

111
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,280
Speaker 2: What would we say about her to disqualify her.

112
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:35,360
Speaker 1: Take a listen to this, and again this is Al

113
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 1: Sharpton saying this on MSNBC Rev.

114
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 3: Let's look at the headline. Obviously, yesterday, you know, we

115
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 3: had been saying on this show that it's like the

116
00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 3: old Midas commercials about when the ethics report and all

117
00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:52,560
Speaker 3: the bad information came out on that gads, you need

118
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:55,080
Speaker 3: to pay us now or you can pay us later.

119
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 3: And the later it is, the closer it is to

120
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 3: you know, more than it's actually in the middle of

121
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:08,000
Speaker 3: the new presidency. And I think that's the last thing

122
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 3: they Obviously they didn't want to see the scandal in

123
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 3: the Senate probably in January and February.

124
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:19,680
Speaker 4: Absolutely, I think it was the wise thing for the

125
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:23,520
Speaker 4: Trump people and for President and ELEC. Trump to withdraw

126
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 4: him now because a long term spectacle of days and

127
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:32,520
Speaker 4: weeks would only damage them even more. Take your losses shot.

128
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 4: Let him walk away because he was never qualified and

129
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 4: he could not give any reasonable argument as why he'd

130
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:42,560
Speaker 4: be Attorney general. I talked to people that I know

131
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,200
Speaker 4: in Florida last night that on the civil rights side,

132
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 4: we have a chapter in now she actually network there.

133
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,520
Speaker 4: Bondy is certainly on the right, but she is one

134
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 4: who's qualified to become attorney general in terms of she's

135
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 4: handled cases, she's managed officers, and yes, we can raise

136
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 4: questions about what she did Trump University, but there's no

137
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 4: glaring things in terms of her values and models.

138
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:06,600
Speaker 2: You're talking about.

139
00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:10,120
Speaker 4: Gates with underage sex. You're talking about Ronnie of that

140
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:13,680
Speaker 4: has been documented, that was sent around, and to put

141
00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:17,240
Speaker 4: him in charge of the Justice Department made a mockery

142
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:20,240
Speaker 4: of the system. So I think it was better for Trump,

143
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 4: not that I'm a Trump person at all, but it

144
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 4: was better for him and certainly better for the American

145
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 4: public to get Gates off the scene.

146
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:28,960
Speaker 2: None.

147
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:31,720
Speaker 1: I mean, when you're hearing Matt from Al Sharpton, Bonnie

148
00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 1: is on the right, but she is one who is

149
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:38,200
Speaker 1: qualified to become attorney general. There's no clearing things in

150
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:42,080
Speaker 1: terms of her values and morals. That tells you how

151
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 1: solid of a pick that this is when you look

152
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 1: at Pam Bondi and who she is. Scott Jennings on CNN,

153
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 1: making the case for Bondi, saying as Trump names Pambondi

154
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,119
Speaker 1: is the new a g pick after Matt Gates withdraws.

155
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 1: The best part about this is is look, you get

156
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:05,320
Speaker 1: to basically say we're done, we're done with the Gates thing.

157
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:08,640
Speaker 1: We're moving on quickly to Bondy. Within hours, he is

158
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:12,120
Speaker 1: named Pam Bondy. And Scott Jennings put it this way.

159
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:16,280
Speaker 5: Creation there is something that's very allied to Trump. I mean,

160
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:18,360
Speaker 5: she's had a very long relationship with him. You just

161
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:22,280
Speaker 5: mentioned I'm a Fluoridian, and you know you mentioned that

162
00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:24,920
Speaker 5: those that relationship with Donald Trump. I mean I was

163
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 5: back I think in twenty thirteen that he gave money

164
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:32,079
Speaker 5: to her campaign and then you know, apparently there was

165
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:35,839
Speaker 5: some questions around actions that she took around Trump University,

166
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:39,199
Speaker 5: and so you know, there's a long, long, long history

167
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:41,360
Speaker 5: there between the two of them, Scott.

168
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:43,920
Speaker 6: A long history. She does have obviously real legal experience,

169
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:47,720
Speaker 6: which is in contrast to Matt Gates. No allegations of

170
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:52,080
Speaker 6: mass sex scandals with anyone under age drug scandals. I mean,

171
00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 6: you know, just to just put it out there, here's

172
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,560
Speaker 6: we'll see what we see here. But is this just

173
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:02,360
Speaker 6: a confirmation that would assent sail through scott or not.

174
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:05,200
Speaker 7: Well, I don't think you could consider anybody, you know,

175
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:08,200
Speaker 7: just they're going to sail without any kind of real process.

176
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:10,320
Speaker 7: She's gonna have to go through a process like everybody else.

177
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:12,920
Speaker 7: But I can tell you this is a massive upgrade.

178
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,360
Speaker 7: I've talked to a couple people up on the hill already.

179
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:18,240
Speaker 7: There's a sigh of relief that now we have somebody here,

180
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:22,559
Speaker 7: two term ag strong record on drug enforcement and opioid issues,

181
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:26,679
Speaker 7: a total hawk on immigration, politically supportive of Trump. Obviously.

182
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:28,959
Speaker 7: I don't know Republican in the country who doesn't love

183
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:32,120
Speaker 7: Pam Bondy. So you were starting with Gates, a nominee

184
00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,840
Speaker 7: who was underwater significantly to start and what was gonna

185
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,200
Speaker 7: always be hard to get to the surface With Bondy,

186
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 7: I do think you're starting above water. And as long

187
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:41,839
Speaker 7: as she performs in her hearings. And look, this is

188
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:44,559
Speaker 7: somebody who's been through two elections in a really big state,

189
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:46,719
Speaker 7: and so a lot of public vetting of her has

190
00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:49,400
Speaker 7: gone on already. So I think this is a great

191
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:51,920
Speaker 7: move by Trump to be pragmatic and Tailgates to get out,

192
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:54,319
Speaker 7: and a really good move to go with BONDI this

193
00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:56,240
Speaker 7: is not a shaky lamb, this is a sturdy branch.

194
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 2: He's gone with for Age. Would you agree with that,

195
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,719
Speaker 2: David Well, I'd agree with half of it. I think

196
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:04,079
Speaker 2: was I love how they go to Axelrod right away.

197
00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 1: Right, that's Obama's guy, Like well, remember, I mean Eric

198
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,600
Speaker 1: Holder was his guy, and Eric Holder was a guy

199
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:14,160
Speaker 1: that did the most insane deal ever selling guns to

200
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 1: the cartels that then were used to kill Americans.

201
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:19,400
Speaker 2: Never forget that. It's a guy that.

202
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 1: And Eric Holder that that was held in contempted Congress

203
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 1: that should have been arrested and gone to jail. But

204
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 1: of course there's a double standard there at the AG,

205
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:31,760
Speaker 1: and that never happened either. So when when you look

206
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 1: at this and you hear the talking points that have

207
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 1: been made, I gotta say, I think Pambondy is going

208
00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 1: to be able to get through now. Look, guests are

209
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 1: melting down over Pambondy on the left, the radical left,

210
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:51,720
Speaker 1: like they'll go crazy because they don't like her because

211
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,600
Speaker 1: she's a Republican and and those crazies are out there,

212
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 1: but they don't have evidence behind them to back up

213
00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 1: their insanity like they did with Matt Gates. I'll give

214
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,839
Speaker 1: you a great example. There's a guy that's a commentator

215
00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:08,479
Speaker 1: on MSNBC. He had a total meltdown over Trump picking Pambondy.

216
00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:10,800
Speaker 1: And the thing that you should listen to here is, look,

217
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 1: is this guy gonna melt down on everybody he could

218
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 1: have picked on the list if it was a list

219
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 1: of one hundred people. The answer is yes, because the

220
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:21,240
Speaker 1: partisan hack And that's what he does. Right, Like, there's

221
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,120
Speaker 1: a lot of people on TV no matter who they

222
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 1: put out there, no matter how perfect that you could say,

223
00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 1: all right, here's the pope for the ag and they

224
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:29,520
Speaker 1: would they would lose.

225
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:30,280
Speaker 2: Their mind on the pope.

226
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:35,320
Speaker 1: That's that's part of the democratic you know orbit that

227
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:38,800
Speaker 1: they live in, which is anything that Trump does Orange

228
00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 1: Man bad there for that person is bad.

229
00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 8: Listen, cam Bondi is exactly what I was saying in

230
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,920
Speaker 8: the last segment that we should all fear because she's competent.

231
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:50,240
Speaker 8: We may not agree with her ideologically, but she actually

232
00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:52,760
Speaker 8: knows how to do this job. So if anyone on

233
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,040
Speaker 8: the Democratic side, or anyone who cared about liberty or

234
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:57,720
Speaker 8: justice was thinking, well, maybe Matt Gates will screw this up,

235
00:12:57,720 --> 00:12:59,959
Speaker 8: and that'll give us some time. No, Pambondy knows what

236
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 8: she's doing. She knows what she's doing about immigration. Remember,

237
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,079
Speaker 8: Florida is one of those states that's been very aggressive

238
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:07,760
Speaker 8: about migrants and deportation and moving people to different states

239
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 8: and everything else like that. Florida has enacted all sorts

240
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:13,480
Speaker 8: of rules and laws to curtail students and what they

241
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:17,560
Speaker 8: can do on campuses and finding legal justifications for manipulating

242
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:21,480
Speaker 8: education money. She is a dangerous and effective pick, and

243
00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:24,160
Speaker 8: that's frankly worse than what we would have got with

244
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:27,600
Speaker 8: Matt Gates, even with the deporable moral background that he has.

245
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:29,680
Speaker 9: Yeah, and I want to discuss that with a little

246
00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:32,160
Speaker 9: more depth with both of you, including her record on

247
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:36,360
Speaker 9: civil rights, LGBTQ rights, and other issues that are front

248
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:38,079
Speaker 9: and center at the DOJ and which we know we're

249
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:39,199
Speaker 9: also big campaign issues.

250
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:41,960
Speaker 1: By the way, I love how they go into LGBTQ

251
00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:44,600
Speaker 1: like that's the only issue that the Attorney General deals with.

252
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:47,880
Speaker 1: You know that the Attorney General deals with terrorism and

253
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:49,559
Speaker 1: going after actual terrorists.

254
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,000
Speaker 2: They go after sex traffickers and.

255
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:59,280
Speaker 10: Take back to these radical issues or the left, the LGBTQI,

256
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:03,600
Speaker 10: transgender everything about them is ideology it's not about safety,

257
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:05,679
Speaker 10: it's not about national security.

258
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:08,160
Speaker 2: It's not about terrorism, it's not about domestic terrorism.

259
00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:10,320
Speaker 1: It's not about drugs, it's not about the people dying

260
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:11,400
Speaker 1: from fetnyl overdose.

261
00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:13,640
Speaker 2: None of that seems to matter to them.

262
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:17,280
Speaker 1: All they care about is, well, this is someone that

263
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:22,040
Speaker 1: Donald Trump picked, and we hate Donald Trump. MSNBC had

264
00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:26,680
Speaker 1: another breaking news segment on Morning Joe, Where's headline? Trump

265
00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 1: nominates Pam Bondi for Attorney General, and one of their

266
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:31,720
Speaker 1: reporters put it this way.

267
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:34,560
Speaker 11: Well, one reaction I got from inside the Justice Department

268
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,240
Speaker 11: last night was this is Matt Gates with a better

269
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 11: legal resume. But the legal resume is significant, Willie and guys,

270
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:45,800
Speaker 11: because Pam Bondi was a career prosecutor down there in

271
00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:49,280
Speaker 11: Hillsborough County for many, many years before she was elected

272
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:54,120
Speaker 11: Florida's first female Attorney general. So she's prosecuted major cases, murders,

273
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 11: death penalty cases. She understands how that works. Matt Gates

274
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:00,360
Speaker 11: had never really been much of a lawyer before he

275
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:03,720
Speaker 11: was elected to the Florida legislature, so that's a big difference.

276
00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 11: And you know she at the same time, though she

277
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:12,880
Speaker 11: is you know an extreme MAGA activist and has tainted

278
00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:13,920
Speaker 11: her legal career with.

279
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:19,160
Speaker 1: I love that she's an extreme MAGA activist. And then

280
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:22,920
Speaker 1: does she's tainted her legal career with what show me rulings?

281
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 1: Show me rulings where she was a a politician instead

282
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:32,240
Speaker 1: of following the law, because they don't have that. So

283
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:34,960
Speaker 1: they're going to name call so the honeymoon and I

284
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 1: play this because it's almost like in real time you

285
00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:39,480
Speaker 1: can hear it. Okay, Alice Sharpan comes out and says, hey,

286
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:42,440
Speaker 1: she's a legitimate candidate for this position. She's got a

287
00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:46,080
Speaker 1: legitimate resume, she's solid as a rock. And then msbc's like,

288
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:51,600
Speaker 1: but wait, Orangeman bad, orange man bad. So I've got

289
00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:54,200
Speaker 1: to tell you that she's a radical, that she's an extremist,

290
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:59,360
Speaker 1: that she is a a MAGA fundamentalist. I don't even

291
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 1: know what that means. Means, was Eric Holder not a

292
00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:07,440
Speaker 1: Obama fundamentalist? When went with the age, it's.

293
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 2: A fair question to ask, right, like I would hope

294
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:14,360
Speaker 2: that you are a I laughed.

295
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,160
Speaker 1: The word fundamentalist is maybe a better way of putting it.

296
00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:19,400
Speaker 1: It's it's like they want you to find a robot

297
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 1: who happens to be a lawyer that's not has a

298
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:28,680
Speaker 1: political mind at all, and that's who they would say,

299
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 1: is okay, that doesn't exist. So then the second question

300
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 1: to the left in the media here is okay, well,

301
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:34,840
Speaker 1: then who would you approve up, Well, clearly they would

302
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 1: approve of you putting a radical leftist at the AG's office.

303
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 1: You know when he says, I talked to people with

304
00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 1: the Department of Justice, this reporter and he's and they say, well,

305
00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:49,480
Speaker 1: she's a she's basically a radical with a better resume.

306
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:50,280
Speaker 2: She's Matt Gates.

307
00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:52,600
Speaker 1: The better resume that is the that that is the

308
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 1: most absurd statement that I've seen so far, as this

309
00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:59,440
Speaker 1: is unfolding in front of us in real time. Their

310
00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:02,920
Speaker 1: resume are not even close. And then he even contradicts himself.

311
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:05,520
Speaker 1: He says, well, Matt Gates wasn't a real lawyer barely

312
00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:09,200
Speaker 1: at all before he went to college with no real prosecution.

313
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:13,280
Speaker 1: Like he contradicts his own words that he just said

314
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:17,160
Speaker 1: on MSNBC. Pambondi has been elected not once but twice,

315
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:21,119
Speaker 1: so heavy vetting and a large state that's accurate. Pambondy

316
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:24,240
Speaker 1: is someone that has gone after cartels and gone after

317
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:27,480
Speaker 1: drug cases and death penalty cases and heinus crimes that

318
00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:32,359
Speaker 1: have been committed by illegal immigrants, for example, she understands

319
00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 1: how to prosecute the big cases. She is a prosecutor

320
00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:39,960
Speaker 1: who then earned the job and was re elected by

321
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:44,240
Speaker 1: the people in Florida. That resume is completely different than

322
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:47,440
Speaker 1: Matt Gates barely a lawyer, got went to a hard core,

323
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:50,280
Speaker 1: concerted district and was able to get elected, and then

324
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:53,959
Speaker 1: abused his fame or whatever you want to call it,

325
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:57,639
Speaker 1: for his own personal reasons. They are two very different

326
00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:01,240
Speaker 1: people on paper, Like not even close what you would

327
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:03,159
Speaker 1: what it would cost you if you could buy a

328
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 1: resume for Pambondi's resume would be millions and millions and.

329
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:08,960
Speaker 2: Millions of dollars if you were buying it like a stock.

330
00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:11,440
Speaker 1: Matt Gates stock would be a His resume would be

331
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:16,479
Speaker 1: a penny stock that's filing for bankruptcy that's been delisted. Okay,

332
00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:19,159
Speaker 1: Like to say that they're somehow one the same is

333
00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:22,280
Speaker 1: a lie. I'm going to just back up this MSNBC

334
00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 1: audio again just so you can hear the reaction that

335
00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:29,640
Speaker 1: she is from MSNBC, where they're like, well, I talk

336
00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:32,280
Speaker 1: to people at the Department of Justice, and they said

337
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:36,080
Speaker 1: that Pambondi is Matt Gates are a better resume. Like

338
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:37,920
Speaker 1: this is when you know they just lie to you,

339
00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:40,359
Speaker 1: like all the time, no matter what.

340
00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:41,640
Speaker 2: It's just straight up lies.

341
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:47,399
Speaker 11: Prosecuted major cases, murders, death, penalty cases. She understands how

342
00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:50,119
Speaker 11: that works. Matt Gates had never really been much of

343
00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:52,919
Speaker 11: a lawyer before he was elected to the Florida Legislature,

344
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:57,320
Speaker 11: so that's a big difference. And you know she at

345
00:18:57,359 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 11: the same time, though, she is you know, an extreme

346
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:05,160
Speaker 11: maga activist and has tainted her legal career with very

347
00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:08,480
Speaker 11: strong stands in favor of some questionable things.

348
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:09,560
Speaker 2: Uh. There was a.

349
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:13,560
Speaker 11: Famous incident, uh back in around ten years ago when.

350
00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 2: I love how he's like, you know, say he's wondering.

351
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:20,800
Speaker 1: He's like, uh, she's she's she's uh tainted her her career.

352
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,639
Speaker 2: Uh in a in a in a really read a

353
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:25,720
Speaker 2: way a decade ten years ago.

354
00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:28,439
Speaker 1: Dude, Like I understand that you don't like her, but

355
00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:31,320
Speaker 1: like you want to talk about just making you know

356
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:36,000
Speaker 1: what up? This is making you know what up? Like

357
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:41,520
Speaker 1: this is it? Like you can't go from She's done

358
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 1: all of these things and has a solid record too,

359
00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:47,240
Speaker 1: she's exactly like Matt Gates with a better resume when

360
00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:48,920
Speaker 1: they're not even close to the same.

361
00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:52,080
Speaker 2: To them saying, well, she's tainted her legal career.

362
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:56,800
Speaker 1: Uh and and as he I'm quoting and uh uh

363
00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:59,960
Speaker 1: with you know, uh an extreme maga activist, that is,

364
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:03,000
Speaker 1: she tended her legal career with a very strong stands

365
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:05,080
Speaker 1: in favor of some questionable things.

366
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:08,159
Speaker 2: And it's like, okay, well what are the questionable things?

367
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:13,720
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, well, ten years ago, ten years ago, a

368
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:16,280
Speaker 1: decade ago, let's listen, what is his example.

369
00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:18,000
Speaker 2: I cannot wait for you to tell me.

370
00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:22,720
Speaker 11: Remember Trump University, that for profit university that Donald Trump ran,

371
00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:25,920
Speaker 11: was getting a lot of consumer complaints about being a scam,

372
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:29,680
Speaker 11: and her office was asked to join a multi state

373
00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 11: lawsuit and Donald Trump's foundation contributed twenty five thousand dollars

374
00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 11: to her campaign and she opted not to join that lawsuit,

375
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:40,520
Speaker 11: and his foundation was later fine for making it a

376
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:45,600
Speaker 11: legal contribution. So look, she served her tenured eight years

377
00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:46,399
Speaker 11: as Florida attorney.

378
00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:48,840
Speaker 1: Jail hold on, So let me get this drink. You

379
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:52,960
Speaker 1: had a bunch of states. They claim it wasn't actually

380
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 1: a bunch, It was a few that went after Trump

381
00:20:55,640 --> 00:21:01,119
Speaker 1: University Online. She looked at the case and decided, based

382
00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:04,000
Speaker 1: on a lot of legal reasons, that she wasn't going

383
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,280
Speaker 1: to join in, just like a ton of other states

384
00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 1: did in the US.

385
00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:09,960
Speaker 2: Okay, she didn't join in.

386
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:13,919
Speaker 1: Was that because Donald Trump gave her a donation at

387
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:14,479
Speaker 1: one point?

388
00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 2: I don't know. I doubt it. I think she probably.

389
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:20,399
Speaker 1: Looked at the case and was like, this is a

390
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:22,440
Speaker 1: case that I don't need to waste the taxpayer's time

391
00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:24,679
Speaker 1: or money on in Florida. Maybe she looked at how

392
00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:28,040
Speaker 1: many people in Florida had gone to Trump University or

393
00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:32,119
Speaker 1: had and said, this is extremely few people. Based on

394
00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:33,840
Speaker 1: what I need to be working on, Maybe it's more

395
00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:36,080
Speaker 1: important for me to go after murderers and rapists and

396
00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:41,000
Speaker 1: terrorists and not put lawyers on a case that is

397
00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:48,800
Speaker 1: more of an outlier case where they're actually in Florida specifically.

398
00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:53,280
Speaker 1: Aren't that many people that were affected by Trump Online University.

399
00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:54,399
Speaker 2: Maybe it could.

400
00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:56,560
Speaker 1: Have been that the same reason, by the way, why

401
00:21:56,600 --> 00:22:00,119
Speaker 1: some liberal states with liberal ags did not join in

402
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:03,879
Speaker 1: that class action lawsuit or the lawsuit against Trump University

403
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 1: because they said, this is a waste of time. This

404
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,359
Speaker 1: is not an issue that the majority of the people

405
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,920
Speaker 1: are affected by in our state. There were liberal states

406
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,199
Speaker 1: that did the same thing that Pam Bondi did. So

407
00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:17,040
Speaker 1: if this is all they have unquote on her, then

408
00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 1: I think she will sail through and keep listening to

409
00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:22,000
Speaker 1: this reporter from NBC News the Department of Justice, like

410
00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:24,640
Speaker 1: that's the whole selling point to the American people. Well,

411
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:26,640
Speaker 1: there was this one case that we think she might

412
00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:29,400
Speaker 1: have should have been involved in that she wasn't.

413
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:31,800
Speaker 2: That's it from a decade ago.

414
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:34,800
Speaker 11: She later went on to be one of Donald Trump's

415
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:38,359
Speaker 11: impeachment defense lawyers in the Ukraine impeachment in twenty twenty,

416
00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:42,199
Speaker 11: made a speech on the House floor during the trial

417
00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 11: arguing that there was a Biden corruption scandal in Ukraine

418
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:49,159
Speaker 11: and that that's why that phone call was okay. And

419
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:54,200
Speaker 11: she's also raised questions about fraud in the twenty twenty election,

420
00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:58,040
Speaker 11: which people think were baseless. So it's a bit of

421
00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:00,480
Speaker 11: a mixed bag, But people are breathing a little bit

422
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:02,280
Speaker 11: of a sigh of relief for the Justice Department that

423
00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:05,160
Speaker 11: at least she's a real lawyer, and that her deputy,

424
00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:09,280
Speaker 11: Todd Blanche, donald Trump's defense attorney, does have a lot

425
00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:11,560
Speaker 11: of experience in the Justice Department and is also well

426
00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:15,200
Speaker 11: regarded over there, so net people are thinking this is

427
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:17,679
Speaker 11: a much better situation than Matt Gates. But she is

428
00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 11: certainly a Donald Trump loyalist who has also raised questions

429
00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:25,400
Speaker 11: about weaponization at the Justice Department and may really cause

430
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:27,359
Speaker 11: some trouble over there from the perspective of some of

431
00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:28,479
Speaker 11: the career folks.

432
00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:31,920
Speaker 1: Guys, this is I mean, you hear this and it's

433
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:36,680
Speaker 1: just hysterical. Is It is truly amazing. I want to

434
00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:39,840
Speaker 1: give you another breaking news issue that I talked about

435
00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:44,040
Speaker 1: yesterday and it deals with the ICC putting out this

436
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:47,040
Speaker 1: arrest warrant for Benjamin Nett and Yahoo. There is a

437
00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:50,520
Speaker 1: report coming out now and this is obviously a big deal.

438
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:54,439
Speaker 1: Donald Trump team is already preparing steps to challenge the ICC,

439
00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:59,840
Speaker 1: saying that actions have consequences. President like Donald Trump's team

440
00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:02,959
Speaker 1: is acting on the ethos and preparing to challenge the

441
00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:07,240
Speaker 1: International Criminal Court in the Hague with sanctions after it

442
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:10,679
Speaker 1: initiated arrest warrants against the Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and

443
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:14,080
Speaker 1: the former Defense Minister from Israel as well named Gallant.

444
00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:18,960
Speaker 1: The ICC moved against the Israeli leaders on Thursday, fort

445
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:23,520
Speaker 1: supposed war crimes committed in Gaza by Israel as it

446
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:28,160
Speaker 1: retaliated against the Hamas Terras over their deadly raid last year.

447
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:31,760
Speaker 1: The move came after President Joe Biden back in May

448
00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:40,000
Speaker 1: revoked Trump's original executive order against the ICC. ICC prosecutor,

449
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:45,760
Speaker 1: who faced Carmen Kahan, who faces sexual misconduct allegations, initiated

450
00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:50,760
Speaker 1: the application for the warrants, along with applications for warrants

451
00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:53,880
Speaker 1: against the Palestinian Terras, all of whom have since been

452
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:59,880
Speaker 1: killed by the Israeli defense forces. Hebrew media outlet reported

453
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:04,040
Speaker 1: Friday morning, as cited by seven Israeli national news, Trump

454
00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:07,440
Speaker 1: is already moving even though his inauguration is still some

455
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:12,360
Speaker 1: two months off. Sources in Washington told the news sources

456
00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:18,199
Speaker 1: the possibility of imposing personal sanctions not only on the

457
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:21,960
Speaker 1: prosecutor or the court, but also on the judges themselves

458
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:23,080
Speaker 1: who issued.

459
00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:24,920
Speaker 2: The order against net and Yahoo.

460
00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 1: In addition, there are those who argue the sanctions should

461
00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:34,080
Speaker 1: also be extended to the family members of those elements

462
00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:38,200
Speaker 1: in the courts responsible for the arrest warrants. As previously

463
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:43,280
Speaker 1: reported by Breitbart News, the ICC moves against Israeli leaders,

464
00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:47,400
Speaker 1: equating them with Hamas Terras. This comes in the wake

465
00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:51,920
Speaker 1: of Biden's reversal of sanctions against the ICC for such

466
00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:56,399
Speaker 1: investigations and offered only meek public opposition to the ICC

467
00:25:56,600 --> 00:26:02,320
Speaker 1: chief Khan, who is corrupt as hell. Administration was even

468
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:06,679
Speaker 1: suspected by Israelis of using the looming ICC warrants as

469
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:10,919
Speaker 1: a way of persuading Israel to comply with US policies,

470
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:15,400
Speaker 1: such as not pursuing Hamas Terras in the town of Rafa.

471
00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 1: In June of twenty twenty, Trump issued Executive.

472
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,800
Speaker 2: Order thirteen nine twenty eight. What did it do?

473
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:26,359
Speaker 1: It slapped sanctions on ICC officials who attempted to investigate

474
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:32,200
Speaker 1: US soldiers and soldiers of Allied countries for military actions,

475
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:40,600
Speaker 1: specifically against terrorists. Biden revoked Trump's order shortly after taking office,

476
00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:46,520
Speaker 1: meaning that American soldiers could then be prosecuted by the ICC,

477
00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:52,960
Speaker 1: which is totally insane. Biden and the Democrats, proclaiming America's back,

478
00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:58,920
Speaker 1: sought to cultivate international goodwill by giving the ICC credibility.

479
00:26:58,200 --> 00:26:59,960
Speaker 2: And also extreme power.

480
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:04,520
Speaker 1: Well, elections have consequences now, and what we're being told

481
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,320
Speaker 1: is that Donald Trump has already said go get it

482
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:11,119
Speaker 1: done now. The mental health crisis in this country is

483
00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:15,800
Speaker 1: continuing to explode since Donald Trump got elected. Fifteen of

484
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:20,840
Speaker 1: the biggest leftists are out there going unhinged. Some of

485
00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:23,800
Speaker 1: them threat is saying we need Threats of violence and

486
00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:28,640
Speaker 1: even alleged murder is what is still happening on social

487
00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:33,000
Speaker 1: media and some of that derangement syndrome got into the

488
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:38,359
Speaker 1: elections In Pennsylvania. A election denier, after trying to steal

489
00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:43,200
Speaker 1: an election with counting ballots that were illegal, has been

490
00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:48,280
Speaker 1: forced to concede that election to the Republican Dave McCormick.

491
00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:55,440
Speaker 1: Senator Bob Casey is a current Senator from Pennsylvania, finally

492
00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:59,040
Speaker 1: conceded the race to the Republican Dave McCormick after two

493
00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:04,159
Speaker 1: weeks of contesting the election results. Casey trying to steal

494
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:08,479
Speaker 1: that election and was well busted for doing so and

495
00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:09,400
Speaker 1: the court said you.

496
00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:10,200
Speaker 2: Can't do this.

497
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:14,320
Speaker 1: Announce his concession in a video release to social media

498
00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:15,520
Speaker 1: Thursday evening.

499
00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:18,320
Speaker 2: I just called Dave McCormick.

500
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:20,879
Speaker 1: To congratulate him on his election to represent Pennsylvania in

501
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:22,120
Speaker 1: the United States Senate.

502
00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:23,040
Speaker 2: He said in the video.

503
00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:27,600
Speaker 1: As the first count of ballots is completed, Pennsylvanians can

504
00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:30,040
Speaker 1: move forward with the knowledge that their voices were heard,

505
00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:33,439
Speaker 1: whether their vote was the first to be counted or

506
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:36,680
Speaker 1: the last. Trying to take the moral high ground here,

507
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:39,240
Speaker 1: here's more of what he had to say.

508
00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:43,440
Speaker 12: Well Dave McCormick to congratulate him on his election to

509
00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:47,400
Speaker 12: represent Pennsylvania in the United States Senate. As the first

510
00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:51,000
Speaker 12: count of ballots is completed, Pennsylvanians can move forward with

511
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:54,640
Speaker 12: the knowledge that their voices were heard, whether their vote

512
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:57,800
Speaker 12: was the first to be counted or the last. This

513
00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:00,000
Speaker 12: race was one of the closest in our commonwealth, says

514
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:02,720
Speaker 12: my history, decided by less than a quarter of a point.

515
00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:06,600
Speaker 12: I'm grateful to the thousands of people who work to

516
00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:09,880
Speaker 12: make sure that every eligible vote cast could be counted,

517
00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:15,080
Speaker 12: including election officials in all sixty seven counties. When a

518
00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 12: Pennsylvanian takes the time to cast a legal vote, often

519
00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:21,880
Speaker 12: waiting in long lines and taking time away from their

520
00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:25,719
Speaker 12: work and family, they deserve to know that their vote

521
00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:30,720
Speaker 12: will count. That's democracy. I'm proud of the work we've

522
00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:34,600
Speaker 12: done since election day to enfranchise voters across the state,

523
00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:38,520
Speaker 12: matter whom they voted for, and to ensure that the

524
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:42,880
Speaker 12: democratic process could unfold In just a few days, we

525
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:46,720
Speaker 12: build an organization of three hundred and fifty staff across

526
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:50,640
Speaker 12: the state, joined by more than a thousand volunteers who

527
00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:54,720
Speaker 12: help more than six thousand Pennsylvania voters make a plan

528
00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:58,360
Speaker 12: to fix small issues with their ballot so their vote

529
00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:02,400
Speaker 12: would be counted. From the one hundred year old woman

530
00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:05,720
Speaker 12: in Butler County who voted in every election since she

531
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 12: was eligible, to the nineteen year old in Montgomery County

532
00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:12,200
Speaker 12: who cast her bow for the very first time, we

533
00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:16,479
Speaker 12: made sure those voices were heard, and we stood up

534
00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:21,120
Speaker 12: against efforts to silence and disenfranchise voters in every corner

535
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:24,120
Speaker 12: of the commonwealth. Thanks to our work in the courts,

536
00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:28,480
Speaker 12: nearly one thousand eligible voters in Philadelphia will have their

537
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:33,840
Speaker 12: votes counted despite efforts to throw them out. This work mattered,

538
00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:37,479
Speaker 12: and I'm grateful to the many people who helped with

539
00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:42,920
Speaker 12: this effort. As you know, no public official serves alone,

540
00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:46,000
Speaker 12: and I've been blessed by the love and support of

541
00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:51,720
Speaker 12: my wife, Teres and our daughters Elise, Caroline, Julia, and Marina.

542
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:54,800
Speaker 1: He goes on to talk about the personal things, and

543
00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:56,040
Speaker 1: I wanted you at least to be able to hear

544
00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:59,560
Speaker 1: him say his kids' names there. What was hilarious about

545
00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:02,360
Speaker 1: this and nonouncement is he had I'm pretty sure on

546
00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:07,920
Speaker 1: his desk standing up a constitution and I'm laughing because

547
00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:12,440
Speaker 1: Casey was clearly trying to go against the will of

548
00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:18,280
Speaker 1: the people and counting ballots that were illegal ballots. They

549
00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:22,080
Speaker 1: were not postmarked the way you're supposed to, and these

550
00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:24,600
Speaker 1: liberals were trying to count them because they thought they

551
00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:30,600
Speaker 1: could steal an election. And Dave McCormick accepted Casey's concession

552
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:33,600
Speaker 1: and thanked him for his term of service, saying, Senator

553
00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:36,840
Speaker 1: Bob Casey Dedicade's career to bettering our commonwealth.

554
00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:38,080
Speaker 2: Dean and I want took center.

555
00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:41,680
Speaker 1: Sincere gratitude Senator Casey, Theresa and their family for their

556
00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:44,719
Speaker 1: decades of service, hard work, and personal sacrifice. I'm so

557
00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:47,760
Speaker 1: honored to represent every single citizen in Pennsylvania in the

558
00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:51,040
Speaker 1: United States Senate and will fight for you every day.

559
00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:54,600
Speaker 1: Thank you, he said in his social media post there.

560
00:31:56,840 --> 00:32:01,080
Speaker 1: Casey's concession comes just a little over two weeks after

561
00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:04,920
Speaker 1: he repeatedly contested the election results. Despite having no path

562
00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:10,360
Speaker 1: to victory, Casey continued to continue to refuse to concede

563
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:13,320
Speaker 1: the election of McCormick, stating the election officials should quote

564
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:18,680
Speaker 1: finished counting all the votes, including I guess the illegal ballots. McCormick,

565
00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:21,960
Speaker 1: by the way, attended the Senate orientation after Senate Majority

566
00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:25,560
Speaker 1: Leader Chuck Schumer previously refused to allow him to attend

567
00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:31,360
Speaker 1: the orientation, So the entire Democratic machine was trying to

568
00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:35,640
Speaker 1: overthrow the will of the people. Schumer took a lot

569
00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:39,719
Speaker 1: of heat from Republican Senators Tom Cotton, marc Arrubio Mullin

570
00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:43,320
Speaker 1: for his refusal to allow McCormick to attend the Senate

571
00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:47,520
Speaker 1: orientation as Casey continued to refuse to concede the race.

572
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:52,320
Speaker 1: Dave McCormick's bid comes two years after he failed to

573
00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:54,840
Speaker 1: secure the nomination in the US Senate race against the

574
00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:59,480
Speaker 1: Democrat John Fetterman, who went on to beat the Republican.

575
00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 2: Doctor Oz.

576
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:06,080
Speaker 1: So this is a big switch for the people in Pennsylvania.

577
00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:10,160
Speaker 1: Pennsylvania now has a Republican Senator and a Liberal senator

578
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:10,800
Speaker 1: and Fetterman.

579
00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:12,520
Speaker 2: I love that.

580
00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:18,040
Speaker 1: As I described this, this is what is so great

581
00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:23,560
Speaker 1: about elections. You can change parties. You now have two

582
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:28,320
Speaker 1: very different people representing that state in Pennsylvania. Bob McCormick

583
00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:31,640
Speaker 1: is very different from Fetterman. That's how I know that

584
00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:36,320
Speaker 1: American votes matter. But when you watch this election as

585
00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:41,960
Speaker 1: Casey was trying to steal it, it's pretty disgusting. It's

586
00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:45,840
Speaker 1: I mean, it's not pretty disgusting, it's really disgusting. It

587
00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:48,520
Speaker 1: is disgusting that he tried to steal this election and

588
00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:50,920
Speaker 1: then act like, oh, I'm a man of the constitution.

589
00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:51,680
Speaker 2: No, you're not.

590
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:55,360
Speaker 1: You were trying to figure out a way to steal

591
00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:58,720
Speaker 1: an election and you still couldn't do it, and the

592
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:01,560
Speaker 1: courts were saying no. And so that's the reason now

593
00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:04,080
Speaker 1: why you're like, oh, here's my constitution, and I'm just

594
00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:06,160
Speaker 1: trying to save them, you know, I'm just trying to

595
00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:08,360
Speaker 1: do the right thing and make sure that every vote

596
00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:12,440
Speaker 1: was kind of like, give me a break. These people

597
00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:15,799
Speaker 1: don't respect the voters will when they lose. They only

598
00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:18,759
Speaker 1: say respect the voters will when they win. That is

599
00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:22,080
Speaker 1: the Democratic Party right now, and trying to block McCormick

600
00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:24,640
Speaker 1: from coming to to learn how to do his job

601
00:34:24,680 --> 00:34:26,160
Speaker 1: in the Senate and all the things that you need

602
00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:28,000
Speaker 1: to learn is proof of that.

603
00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:32,600
Speaker 2: And it's disgusting. Make sure you share this podcast with

604
00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:33,600
Speaker 2: your family and your friends.

605
00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:35,200
Speaker 1: Please, I'm going to keep you update on the poll

606
00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:37,040
Speaker 1: numbers and let you know what it looks like each

607
00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:39,360
Speaker 1: and every day, and I'll see it back here tomorrow
