1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:01,920 Speaker 1: It is Friday, July the eighteenth. 2 00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:06,400 Speaker 2: This is the morning. The Wall Street Journal reports this 3 00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:09,120 Speaker 2: morning that Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein were more than 4 00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:10,120 Speaker 2: just best friends. 5 00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:12,880 Speaker 1: They were pen pals. In fact, the. 6 00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:16,040 Speaker 2: Forty fifth and forty seventh president of the United States 7 00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 2: drew pictures for his pedophile friend, scrowing his eponymous signature, 8 00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:26,200 Speaker 2: Donald Trump. Where the pubic hair should have been on 9 00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:30,680 Speaker 2: The sketched outline of what we must suppose between the 10 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:35,360 Speaker 2: inside jokes contained in the book presented to Jeffrey Epstein 11 00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:39,559 Speaker 2: by Kislaine Maxwell was a known secret. Now when the 12 00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:44,240 Speaker 2: Wall Street Journal was reporting this story, Donald knew all 13 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:44,800 Speaker 2: about it. 14 00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:46,240 Speaker 1: All of the. 15 00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 2: Feverish phone calls, the threats, the back and forth, the 16 00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:52,920 Speaker 2: phone call to Rupert Murdoch, who Trump said in his 17 00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:56,400 Speaker 2: truth social post said he would kill the story, but 18 00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 2: he did it. The editor of the Wall Street Journal 19 00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 2: published it. Now Trump has threatened to sue them, sue 20 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:06,600 Speaker 2: Rupert Murdoch, sue News Corps, and to break the Wall 21 00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 2: Street Journal, as he did ABC News, as he did 22 00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:11,480 Speaker 2: CBS News. 23 00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:12,760 Speaker 1: But here's the thing. 24 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:18,640 Speaker 2: What Trump calls a democratic hoax. While he was negotiating 25 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:22,080 Speaker 2: with Rupert Murdoch to keep the story of the deep 26 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 2: friendship out of the Rupert Murdoch on paper. It's not 27 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:29,960 Speaker 2: the sign of a democratic hoax. That's the sign of 28 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 2: a Trumpian lie. 29 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:33,080 Speaker 1: No, No, she's uh. 30 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 3: She's given us just a very quick briefing and in 31 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:40,640 Speaker 3: terms of the credibility of the different things that they've seen, 32 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:43,960 Speaker 3: and I would say that, you know, these files were 33 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 3: made up by Komi, they were made up by Obama, 34 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:49,520 Speaker 3: they were made up by the Biden from you know, 35 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:52,560 Speaker 3: uh we and we went through years of that with 36 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 3: the Russia Russia Russia hoax, with all of the different 37 00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 3: things that we had to go through. We've gone through 38 00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 3: years of it. But she's handled it very well and 39 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:03,559 Speaker 3: it's going to be up to her. Whatever she thinks 40 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 3: is credible. She should release you. 41 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:10,399 Speaker 2: And all of the laws and all of the degeneracy 42 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:15,799 Speaker 2: is coming home to roost. Powered by conspiracy theory, the 43 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 2: Epstein case took on a life of its own. 44 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 1: People like cash Patau. 45 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,080 Speaker 4: You say that the FBI has Epstein's list, they're sitting 46 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 4: on it. That doesn't seem like something you should do. 47 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 4: You're protecting the world's foremost predator. That seems like an 48 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 4: evil thing to do, regardless of who may be embarrassed 49 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 4: in the release of that list. Why is the FBI 50 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 4: protecting the greatest pederist, the largest scale pederist in human history? 51 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 2: Simple because of who's on that list. 52 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,360 Speaker 1: And Dan Bongino. 53 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 5: That Jeffrey Epstein's story is a big deal. Please do 54 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 5: not let that story go. Keep your eye on this, 55 00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 5: Catherine Rumbler, I want you, we need to keep the 56 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:54,360 Speaker 5: heat on this case. 57 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:54,800 Speaker 1: Folks. 58 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:57,240 Speaker 5: There are a lot of people who are knee deep 59 00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:59,799 Speaker 5: in the Washington swamp who are not telling you the 60 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 5: truth about serious allegations out there that Epstein may have 61 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 5: had video and audio of people out there doing things 62 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 5: they shouldn't have been doing. And you should be asking 63 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:13,799 Speaker 5: yourself the question, how is it that all these people, 64 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 5: the CIA director, the Obama fixer, Bill Clinton, all intersected 65 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 5: past with Jeffrey Epstein. Jeffrey Epstein isn't with us anymore, 66 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:25,360 Speaker 5: and nobody seems to want to talk about it outside 67 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 5: of a few entrepreneurial media outlets saying, hey, this is 68 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:29,240 Speaker 5: a big deal. 69 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 2: And Alex Jones and Steve Bannon, these people created a 70 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 2: story that there was a cover up by the Biden 71 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 2: administration about what it is that Jeffrey Epstein did, but 72 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 2: there was no cover up, just like there was no 73 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 2: cover up about Biden's condition. It all played out, just 74 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 2: like most things do these days, in front of everybody, 75 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 2: in the plane light of day. Again, democracy doesn't die 76 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 2: in darkness. It dies in high noon. Maybe it dies 77 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 2: at a fifty million dollar wedding in Sicily, But the 78 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 2: one place does not die is in the darkness. 79 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 1: What Trump hopes is that people will. 80 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 2: Grow tired of the story and that day will move on. 81 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: But no one is moving on. 82 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 2: Laura Lumer isn't moving on, Alex Jones isn't moving on. 83 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:27,279 Speaker 2: None of the Maga nutjobs are moving on, and all 84 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:32,159 Speaker 2: of the Maga nutjobs know what Maga nutjobs were at 85 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 2: the head of the Epstein parade. Cash Patel can do 86 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 2: one of two things. He can remain in good standing 87 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 2: with Donald Trump, or he can please that magabase. Truth 88 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 2: of the matter is, there's a lot of people looking 89 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 2: at Donald trump swollen ankles this morning and. 90 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 1: Say how much time does the guy have left? 91 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:54,480 Speaker 2: He's obese, he's out of shape, his ankles are the 92 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 2: size of a hippopotamus. And while Trump never talks about 93 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 2: his age or his ailments. Truth of the matter is 94 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 2: he's eighty and just maybe some of these ambitious younger 95 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 2: Magas are looking at Donald Trump saying, this guy doesn't 96 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 2: have that much time left. And I don't have any 97 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 2: connection to Epstein, So why am I going to take 98 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 2: the fall with Maga? For what Cash Btala is covering up, 99 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 2: for what Bongino is now covering up, what Pam Bondi 100 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 2: is definitely covering up. And the answer to that is 101 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:28,720 Speaker 2: they won't and they can't because there is something deeply 102 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 2: true about all conspiracy theories. In the end, they devour 103 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 2: themselves like a snake eating its tail. The only conspiracy 104 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 2: here is the conspiracy of silence between the rich and 105 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 2: powerful men. And that's what's unraveling, what's unwinding. Donald Trump 106 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 2: can evade many many things, is he's demonstrated, But one 107 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 2: of them that he cannot is the grip of a 108 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 2: dead pedophile. And Donald has always been lucky with his opponents. 109 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 2: He's always found the right one that allows him to 110 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:08,479 Speaker 2: use his disgustingness as an asset. But the one person 111 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 2: Trump has never won a fight against is Trump. 112 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 1: Trump wins fights against other people. 113 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:18,600 Speaker 2: His worst enemy has always been himself, and it is 114 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:23,599 Speaker 2: Trump who will doom Trump, which has always been Trump's destiny. 115 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:29,159 Speaker 2: And at the beginning Lindsey Graham articulated this better than 116 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 2: any person. Lindsay just thought the doom would come in 117 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:35,279 Speaker 2: twenty and sixteen. 118 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:36,159 Speaker 1: It didn't. 119 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,680 Speaker 2: It's going to come between twenty twenty five and twenty 120 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:43,360 Speaker 2: twenty eight. And while the Democratic Party is on its 121 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 2: back and in trouble, it's going to get on its feet. 122 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:51,480 Speaker 2: The Republican Party, the MAGA Party, well seems very strong 123 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 2: right now, but its numbers are cratering, and it won't 124 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 2: hold power past January first of twenty twenty seven in 125 00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 2: the Congress, and then two years after that it will 126 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:07,839 Speaker 2: face judgment, repudiation, and obliteration. And after the obliteration comes 127 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 2: the accountability. And one of the grave sins in the 128 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 2: history of the country is the continued propensity for the 129 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 2: American side of the proposition that believes in democracy to 130 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 2: give a pass in the accountability era to those that don't. 131 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 1: Not this time, and that will have. 132 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 2: To be at the center of the Democratic campaign of 133 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 2: twenty twenty eight. The massed men, the lawlessness, the corruption, 134 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 2: the thieving, The bill is coming due for all of them. 135 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 1: Mark my words. I'm Steve Schmidt.
