1 00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:02,320 Speaker 1: Waste, fraud, and abuse. 2 00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:05,120 Speaker 2: It's part of what the Trump administration said they were 3 00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:08,200 Speaker 2: going to expose in our government. It's part of what 4 00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:11,959 Speaker 2: DOGE was created to stop. Well, now we have a 5 00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:15,720 Speaker 2: new report out from the US Government Accountability Office and 6 00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:21,880 Speaker 2: it is raising shocking concerns about fraud and deliberate improper 7 00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:25,959 Speaker 2: payments within the Affordable Care Act and the insurance exchanges. 8 00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:31,840 Speaker 2: The Government Accountability Office releasing the preliminary Watchdog report showing 9 00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:36,080 Speaker 2: not only that, but serious vulnerabilities in the ACA marketplace 10 00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:41,040 Speaker 2: subsidies and people are making billions of dollars off of 11 00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:47,400 Speaker 2: our tax dollars with fraud.

And 17 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 2: now you know why the insurance industry is giving record 18 00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:23,119 Speaker 2: dollars to Democrats who are in office.

The lawmakers are already calling the preliminary 48 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 2: findings not just alarming, but damning. House Speaker Mike Johnson 49 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 2: saying this last night on Fox News Channel. 50 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 3: The Government Accountability Office just came out with a new 51 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 3: report this past week, Laura, and it is astounding. Just 52 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 3: for example, over the last two years, they submitted twenty 53 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:30,359 Speaker 3: four two dozen totally fraudulent applications for these Unaffordable Care 54 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 3: Act subsidies. Okay, twenty three out of twenty four were approved. 55 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 3: There were no SOB security numbers, provided no verification for 56 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 3: incoun or even citizenship. Okay, of course, not right. This 57 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 3: tens of thousands of dollars paid to each one of those, 58 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 3: to the insurance companies for people that do not exist, Okay, 59 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 3: dead people ninety four million dollars. If taxpayer dollars paid 60 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 3: insurance companies for people that have been deceased, then you 61 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 3: had soci security numbers. Sixty eight thousand, so security numbers 62 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 3: in twenty twenty four alone were used for multiple persons, 63 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 3: in other words, multiple people using one number to builk 64 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 3: the system and to fraud it. That's the system that 65 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 3: the Democrats created, that's the one they want us to subsidize. 66 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 3: So when we go forward with the truth, we explain 67 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 3: to the American people the reason their cost out of 68 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 3: control is because they created a broken system. We have 69 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 3: the solutions to fix it. That is the message and 70 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:21,880 Speaker 3: the truth. I think that's going to prevail as you 71 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:22,839 Speaker 3: go into the election year. 72 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:27,119 Speaker 2: Obamacare sold is affordable care. It's not that at all. 73 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 2: Ninety four million send to insurers for people that were dead. Now, 74 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:33,479 Speaker 2: how much of that ninety four million is going to 75 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 2: come back the American taxpayer. I think you know the answer. No, 76 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 2: none of it is coming back. Sixty eight thousand security 77 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 2: numbers used by multiple people to cheat the system. Huge 78 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 2: amounts paid to insurance companies, which are the top donors 79 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 2: to Democrats in Congress for countless thousands of people who 80 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 2: literally don't exist. The question is would anybody go to 81 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 2: jail because of the billions and billions in fraud? The 82 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 2: answer I think you know now is no, that is 83 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:09,160 Speaker 2: not going to happen. We are not going to get 84 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:13,039 Speaker 2: our money back. So how do we now move forward? 85 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 2: Number One, We've got to make sure that people understand 86 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 2: just how unaffordable the Affordable Care Act is. Democrats have 87 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 2: misled hardworking Americans and claim that the Affordable Care Act 88 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:29,040 Speaker 2: with lower health care premiums when their law was enacted. 89 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 2: What has happened since then? Premiums have skyrocketed. Since twenty fourteen, 90 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 2: premium costs on the ACA exchanges have risen nearly two 91 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:46,039 Speaker 2: times faster than employer coverage. Why because they know the 92 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 2: government money's there for the taking. It has also been 93 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 2: more than three times faster than inflation. How do they 94 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 2: get away with it when it's government dollars tax dollars. 95 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 2: There is no real metric to business or to saying 96 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:05,479 Speaker 2: no again, the insurance companies know who to pay, that's 97 00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 2: the Democratic Party who then protects them and their record earnings. 98 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 2: It is without question that the Unaffordable Care Act has 99 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 2: failed the American people. And now Republicans are having to 100 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 2: deal with the fallout and trying to fix it. What 101 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,920 Speaker 2: we know is the Affordable Care Act is anything but affordable. 102 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 2: In fact, it's already a disaster, and without the government subsidies, 103 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,840 Speaker 2: nobody could afford it. But this is where we are 104 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 2: with the Democratic Party now. Constantly they lie and they 105 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:38,800 Speaker 2: try to tell you that the Affordable Care Act is working, 106 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 2: that it is something you should be proud of. Well, 107 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:46,839 Speaker 2: House Republicans have introduced a bill to lower healthcare premiums 108 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 2: for all Americans. Here's more of what Speaker Johnson had 109 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 2: to say about that. 110 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,839 Speaker 3: We're very close and we're delighted to present this and 111 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:57,360 Speaker 3: put it through the House next week. Here's the important thing. 112 00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:01,280 Speaker 3: You said it very well, Laura. The Democrats America's healthcare 113 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,720 Speaker 3: system fifteen years ago when they came out with that 114 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:07,479 Speaker 3: Obamacare proposal, the Unaffordable Care Act, it did exactly the 115 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:11,679 Speaker 3: opposite of every single thing they promised. Premiums have skyrocketed 116 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 3: in some categories up to seventy or ninety percent in 117 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 3: the last fifteen years. They will continue to skyrocket. So 118 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:21,680 Speaker 3: the Democrats proposal right now is subsidize it further. They 119 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 3: want the American tax payer to give billions of dollars 120 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 3: to insurance companies in a program that is just riddled 121 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 3: with fraud, waste abuse. We're not going to do that. 122 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 3: Republicans are bringing common sense solutions. We are bringing solutions 123 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 3: forward that will actually lower the premiums for all Americans. 124 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 3: It's long overdue, and we've got some great ideas to 125 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 3: do it. 126 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,000 Speaker 2: You listen to the fix there from the Speaker, and 127 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 2: he's right, there has to be a fix. When you 128 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 2: have a system that is paying huge amounts to insurance 129 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 2: companies for countless thousands of people who don't exist. It's 130 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 2: a problem and you may ask yourself, how to the 131 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 2: insurance companies even allow this to happen. Well, if someone 132 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 2: doesn't exist, isn't that literally the best possible person that 133 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 2: you could ensure. In fact, you could also argue that 134 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 2: the insurance companies have actual incentives to take money. 135 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:12,120 Speaker 1: From the government for people that don't exist. 136 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 2: That's why this undercover investigation in rolling twenty three out 137 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 2: of twenty four fictional applicants for subsidized health insurance plans 138 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 2: for the ACA exchanges should make everyone angry. I don't 139 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 2: care if you're a Republican or a Democrat, they also 140 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 2: know and they've been warned of these significant vulnerabilities and 141 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:37,080 Speaker 2: lacks anti fraud protections. The report actually suggests that there 142 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:40,559 Speaker 2: could be widespread fraud in multiple areas of the country 143 00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 2: where this is being exploited. You also have to go 144 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:47,760 Speaker 2: back to the other client of the insurance company, which 145 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 2: is the best client you'll ever have ninety four million 146 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 2: sent to insurers for those who are dead. Now, if 147 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 2: you're an insurance company, what is cheaper and what is 148 00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:00,320 Speaker 2: more guaranteed to your bottom line than premiums being paid 149 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 2: on a human being that's dead. You don't have to 150 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 2: ever worry about a claim. Why would you tell the 151 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:07,600 Speaker 2: government or try to stop that type of fraud when 152 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 2: it's ninety four million literally directly to your bottom line. 153 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 2: The GOA report finding that more than the ninety four 154 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 2: million were sent directly the insurance companies on behalf of 155 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 2: individuals that are dead. These are what you would describe 156 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 2: as fraudulent payments involved using dead peoples, so security numbers 157 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 2: and other information to then get the payouts. Now House 158 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:38,320 Speaker 2: Budget GOP saying it is important that we note the 159 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 2: issue is improper government payments and improper government payments to 160 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:47,439 Speaker 2: our very good friends over at the insurance companies, their 161 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:52,679 Speaker 2: premiums have skyrocketed. Programs like Medicaid and even COVID nineteen 162 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 2: stimulus checks are another example of the waste, fraud, and abuse. 163 00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:59,679 Speaker 2: Every government program seems to be covered up with people 164 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,440 Speaker 2: that are taking advantage of it, people that are dead, 165 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 2: people that should never get the benefits, who are getting 166 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:09,679 Speaker 2: the benefits, which is where the Trump administration comes in. 167 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 2: What the Trump administration is now said is the government 168 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 2: is working on these solutions, such as using the Social 169 00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:21,680 Speaker 2: Security Administration's Death Master File to identify and stop such 170 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 2: fraudulent payments. And what are Democrats saying about that? They're 171 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 2: not advocating for it.

An alarm was sounded last year during 191 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:46,199 Speaker 2: the presidential election, and it's one that the Trump administration 192 00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 2: is trying to fix right now. It deals with the 193 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:54,560 Speaker 2: unaffordability of housing. And it's a sad statistic, but now 194 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 2: many Americans up until their forties can't afford the American 195 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 2: dream to a home. Much of that is caused because 196 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 2: of lower end housing and the price for it has 197 00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 2: skyrocketed because of the massive influx of illegal immigrants coming 198 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 2: into this country. Even during the government shutdown, the US 199 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 2: Treasury Secretary of Scott descent had this to say about housing, 200 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 2: the tariffs and how expensive has gotten for Americans to survive. 201 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 4: Jerome Powell yesterday kind of threw some cold water. It 202 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 4: seems it came across to a lot of people, including yours, 203 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 4: truly throw cold water on the Asian trip by saying 204 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:39,600 Speaker 4: basically that the rate cut in December wasn't a foregone conclusion. 205 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 4: Your reaction to Powell's decision to give those remarks yesterday. 206 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 5: Look, I think as endemic of a FED that has 207 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 5: been completely wrong, whether it's on tariffs or the economy. 208 00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 5: They started cutting rates. I think that we should be 209 00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:07,960 Speaker 5: in a cycle here. And I'm not sure what the 210 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 5: problem is with the voters last year. They voted for 211 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 5: the massive fifty point or fifty basis point rape cut 212 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:22,479 Speaker 5: in September before the election in November, clearly very political 213 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:28,120 Speaker 5: than two rate cuts after that, and the labor market 214 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 5: was in better better shape than the inflation levels were 215 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,920 Speaker 5: the same. So you know, I'm afraid that the Board 216 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:42,840 Speaker 5: may be playing politics here. And what's really discouraging is 217 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,079 Speaker 5: we were starting to see signs of a nascent recovery 218 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:49,600 Speaker 5: in the housing market. Housing market is obviously the most 219 00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:54,319 Speaker 5: interest rate sensitive sector of the economy. Americans have been 220 00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:59,319 Speaker 5: pushed out of affordability in the housing market and this 221 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:03,720 Speaker 5: isn't helpful what the Fed's doing here. And when I look, 222 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:07,719 Speaker 5: rents are down and that's one of the biggest components 223 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 5: of inflation. So it's like they want to have a 224 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 5: nation of renters and not owners. 225 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 2: It's almost like they don't want them to buy a home. 226 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 2: That really does seem to be the plan of the 227 00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 2: Democratic Party and it's incredibly frustrating. But the good news 228 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:30,400 Speaker 2: is the policies of this administration are bringing news to 229 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:34,640 Speaker 2: many Americans that have been forced into renting. The Treasury 230 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 2: Secretary announcing today that mass deportations, including self deportations in 231 00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:45,040 Speaker 2: the millions now, are bringing rents down for working class Americans. 232 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:50,480 Speaker 2: Treasury Secretary Scott Besson saying President Trump's mass deportation agenda 233 00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 2: is doing exactly what he said it was going to do. 234 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:57,120 Speaker 2: It was going to bring down the costs for working 235 00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 2: in lower and middle class Americans. Last month, for example, 236 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:05,840 Speaker 2: and this is the data that matters, apartment rents finally 237 00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 2: fell one point one percent compared to the same time 238 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 2: last year, and they have dropped five point two percent 239 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 2: compared to the same period in twenty twenty two, when 240 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:20,360 Speaker 2: rents had peaked in this country. During an interview on 241 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 2: Fox Business Channel, Treasury Secretary credit the deportations for helping 242 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 2: drive down rents and pointing to a recent study by 243 00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 2: the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania which found 244 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:37,040 Speaker 2: a deep correlation between immigration and housing costs. 245 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:38,720 Speaker 1: Quote, rents are down. 246 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 2: You know the story that the Biden administration doesn't want 247 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 2: to talk about the mass, unfettered immigration that pushed up rents, 248 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:51,200 Speaker 2: especially for working Americans. Here's more of what he had 249 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:54,000 Speaker 2: to say on Fox Business Channel with Maria Bartiromo. 250 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 6: How do you explain this new stress that we're talking 251 00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:00,480 Speaker 6: about that keeps showing up in all the holes that 252 00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 6: people are stressed about housing, stressed about the cost of food. 253 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:07,800 Speaker 6: What is the administration's plan to rain in the cost 254 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 6: of food and housing. 255 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 5: Well, Maria, people should be stressed because it's Biden inflation. 256 00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 5: As I said, it was worst inflation in fifty years. 257 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:21,040 Speaker 5: And stratigis the brokerage firm who you know well had 258 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 5: something Jason Trinner had something called the common Man Index, 259 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 5: which was working Americans. So the accumulated CPI during the 260 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 5: Biden years called it twenty one twenty two percent. For 261 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 5: working Americans it was thirty five. And that thirty five 262 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:42,520 Speaker 5: was just a wipeout because those groceries, insurance, rent and 263 00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 5: the auto and we are bringing that down. So in energy, 264 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 5: which leads everything is coming down. Energy goes into grocery prices. 265 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:58,440 Speaker 5: So affordability has two components. So just like with the deficit, 266 00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:01,680 Speaker 5: with the deficit, there are two parts to it. They're 267 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:06,160 Speaker 5: constrained spending and then upping revenues, which is what we're doing, 268 00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:10,360 Speaker 5: which is why we had this several hundred billion dollar 269 00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 5: contraction with affordability. I suspect that we are going to 270 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 5: see a substantial drop in inflation the first six months 271 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 5: and next year. Rents are down. The story that the 272 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:27,119 Speaker 5: Biden administration doesn't want to talk about the mass unfettered immigration. 273 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:31,600 Speaker 5: They have pushed up rents, especially for working Americans. There's 274 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:35,400 Speaker 5: a recent study out from Wharton School that shows every 275 00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 5: one percent increase in population, rents one up one percent. 276 00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:44,800 Speaker 5: So President Trump, by the enforcing the border sending home 277 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:48,879 Speaker 5: more than two million illegals rents. We're now seeing D 278 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:52,080 Speaker 5: and C rents coming down substantially. I think that that 279 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:55,320 Speaker 5: will continue this for the rest of the year. We 280 00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:59,959 Speaker 5: brought interest rates down, so we've seen more mortgage rates down, 281 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:02,119 Speaker 5: and I think everything else will follow that. 282 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:06,280 Speaker 2: Now the Treasury Secretary isn't the only one talking about 283 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:08,520 Speaker 2: exactly the problem with affordability. 284 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:10,200 Speaker 1: The Vice President JD. 285 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:13,879 Speaker 2: Vance hitting the road talking about this exact issue, and 286 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:15,680 Speaker 2: what he halso I had to say is about how 287 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:18,840 Speaker 2: many young people are now being left behind because the 288 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:22,119 Speaker 2: Biden administration policies, and they're stopping it now. 289 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:24,120 Speaker 7: I know that there are a lot of people out 290 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 7: there Sean who are saying things are expensive, and we 291 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:31,399 Speaker 7: have to remember they're expensive because we inherited this terrible 292 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:35,200 Speaker 7: inflation crisis from the Biden administration. But you've already seen 293 00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:38,280 Speaker 7: signs that things are getting better. The price of eggs 294 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 7: has gone way down, the price of energy has gone 295 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:44,440 Speaker 7: way down, the price of gasoline has gone way down. 296 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:47,920 Speaker 7: And as we know, when the price of energy goes down, 297 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 7: that starts to filter out into the entire economy. But 298 00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:53,200 Speaker 7: that also takes a little bit of time. There's another 299 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:55,159 Speaker 7: component of this Sewan, which to me is maybe the 300 00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:57,400 Speaker 7: most important because I care so much about our young 301 00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:59,679 Speaker 7: people being able to afford a good life. A lot 302 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:03,719 Speaker 7: of young people are saying housing is way too expensive. 303 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:04,760 Speaker 8: Why is that? 304 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:09,119 Speaker 7: Because we flooded the country with thirty million illegal immigrants 305 00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 7: who were taking houses that ought by right go to 306 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:14,399 Speaker 7: American citizens. And at the same time, we weren't building 307 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:17,120 Speaker 7: enough new houses to begin with, even. 308 00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:19,639 Speaker 8: For the population that we had. So what we're doing 309 00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:22,440 Speaker 8: is trying to make it easier to build houses. 310 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:24,440 Speaker 7: Trying to make it easier to build factories and things 311 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:24,880 Speaker 7: like that. 312 00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:26,159 Speaker 8: So that people have good jobs. 313 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:29,159 Speaker 7: We're also getting all of those illegal aliens out of 314 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:32,160 Speaker 7: our country, and you're already seeing it start to pay 315 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:32,800 Speaker 7: some dividends. 316 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:36,200 Speaker 2: You're already seeing it start to pay some dividends. Which 317 00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:40,080 Speaker 2: brings me to jd Vance taking a very blunt job 318 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:44,640 Speaker 2: at President Joe Biden and the Democratic Party laying out 319 00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 2: the Trump administration's plan for the economy in twenty twenty six. 320 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:52,159 Speaker 7: If you go back to the four years of the 321 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:56,520 Speaker 7: Biden administration, why did housing get so expensive double in 322 00:19:56,640 --> 00:20:00,240 Speaker 7: price during the Biden administration, It's because Joe Biden let 323 00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:04,040 Speaker 7: in twenty million illegal immigrants who took homes that ought 324 00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 7: by right go to American citizens and to the people 325 00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:14,640 Speaker 7: of this great state. We talk about why did healthcare 326 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:18,879 Speaker 7: get so unaffordable during the Biden administration, It's because Joe 327 00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:24,160 Speaker 7: Biden allowed prescription drug companies to take advantage of this country. 328 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:29,639 Speaker 2: So there it is jd Vance saying housing got expensive. Yeah, 329 00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:34,400 Speaker 2: double the price during the Biden administration. Joe Biden let 330 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:37,200 Speaker 2: in twenty million illegal immigrants, you were competing with them 331 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:41,399 Speaker 2: for housing. Now we find out about other fraud with 332 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 2: the Affordable Care Act, money going to Somalia, going to 333 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:49,399 Speaker 2: terrace in states where there's waste, fraud, and abuse. And 334 00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 2: this is exactly why he was out there today making 335 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 2: it clear that if you're an illegal immigrant, we're coming 336 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:59,000 Speaker 2: for you, and American citizens are going to be put 337 00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:03,920 Speaker 2: back at the front of the line. New files are 338 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:07,439 Speaker 2: revealing this morning that the Department of Justice and the 339 00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:12,200 Speaker 2: FBI did not have cause to raid mar A Lago. 340 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:14,720 Speaker 1: That coming now. 341 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 2: From shocking information that has been released by Senator Chuck Grassley. 342 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:22,880 Speaker 2: The newly released emails and records that were made public 343 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:28,879 Speaker 2: show that FBI officials internally in writing where questioned whether 344 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:32,119 Speaker 2: they had probable causes seek a search warrant for mar Lago. 345 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:36,159 Speaker 2: In August of twenty twenty two, emails state that the 346 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:41,400 Speaker 2: FBI's own Washington Field office did not believe the evidence 347 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 2: established probable cause for a raid at that time. Despite 348 00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 2: these written doubts, in writing, the Department of Justice leadership 349 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:55,200 Speaker 2: said screw it, We're going to move forward anyway and 350 00:21:55,320 --> 00:22:00,720 Speaker 2: obtained a warrant from a federal magistrate judge. One senior 351 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 2: FBI agent reportedly said the effort to build probable cause 352 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:12,720 Speaker 2: was time consuming, quote unquote, and not productive without additional evidence. 353 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 2: Grassly characterize the disclosures as a miscarriage of justice and 354 00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 2: claim the Biden DOJ push forward despite internal resistance based 355 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:29,600 Speaker 2: on the facts. Now, these internal emails were not previously public, 356 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:34,640 Speaker 2: and they contradict past public assertions about the confidence levels 357 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:39,400 Speaker 2: before the raid on the former president's home. It's important 358 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:42,639 Speaker 2: to note that the FBI's public stance was that a 359 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:45,520 Speaker 2: judge found probable cause even though they didn't believe it 360 00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:50,120 Speaker 2: was there, and authorize the warrant. That is something democrats 361 00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:53,800 Speaker 2: are pointing to right now to try to save themselves. Now, 362 00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:56,760 Speaker 2: let me also remind you about what happened during that 363 00:22:56,960 --> 00:23:00,359 Speaker 2: raid when there's no evidence, What do you have to 364 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 2: do when you're raiding someone tome if you want to 365 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,760 Speaker 2: go after them? And why did they raid? We all 366 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:10,280 Speaker 2: know the reason why the FBI raided the DOJ. They 367 00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:12,440 Speaker 2: were trying to make sure that Donald Trump never made 368 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:15,280 Speaker 2: it back to the White House. Let me remind you 369 00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:19,320 Speaker 2: what now, CIA Director John Radcliffe had to say about 370 00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 2: this quite some time ago after the raid happened. 371 00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 8: Yeah, so that famous photograph. 372 00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 7: What we have now learned and the government has had 373 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:29,439 Speaker 7: Jacksmith and his prosecutors have had to admit that that 374 00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:33,400 Speaker 7: was staged. And those top secret classified sheets that all 375 00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 7: the public songs said, Oh my god, look at those 376 00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 7: top secret documents. Those were placed there by the FBI. 377 00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:41,400 Speaker 7: And what Jacksmith admitted in court this week was that, 378 00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:47,120 Speaker 7: in his word, they mishandled the classified documents and misrepresented 379 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 7: those to the court. Maria, that's a kind way of saying, 380 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 7: we tampered with the evidence. Then we lied to the 381 00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:54,479 Speaker 7: court about it, and they got caught when President Trump's 382 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:57,600 Speaker 7: lawyers and the other co defendants raised this issue and said, look, 383 00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:00,479 Speaker 7: the documents here don't match up. The document that were 384 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:04,119 Speaker 7: presented to us don't match the digitally scanned records of 385 00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:06,639 Speaker 7: when they were taken from mar A Lago, and jack 386 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:09,680 Speaker 7: Smith not only did they tamper with that and lie 387 00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 7: to the court about it, but he's now admitted to 388 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:13,880 Speaker 7: the court that he doesn't know how that happened. He's 389 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,959 Speaker 7: only offered a number of possible explanations for how that 390 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:20,320 Speaker 7: could have happened. So he's absolutely blown the chain of custody. 391 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:23,400 Speaker 7: And again he has a prosecutor lead prosecutor in this case, 392 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 7: Jay Bratt, who met with White House counsel and a 393 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:30,480 Speaker 7: representative of the National Archives in several times in the 394 00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:33,520 Speaker 7: weeks before Jack Smith was even appointed. This reeks of 395 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 7: crossfire hurricane when the Biden when the Obama Biden administration 396 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 7: fabricated evidence before the Piza Court, lied to the court 397 00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:43,720 Speaker 7: about it to pursue Donald Trump, and now we're seeing 398 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:45,680 Speaker 7: it again in this classified documents case. 399 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:49,920 Speaker 2: So not only was this thing crooked from the beginning 400 00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 2: and fabricated out of thin air, we also now know 401 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:57,040 Speaker 2: that those men and women at the FBI and the 402 00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:59,919 Speaker 2: DOJ that were on the ground said there is no 403 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:04,640 Speaker 2: thing there, there's no probable cause, and so that's where 404 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 2: the politics and the corruption of the Biden regime comes in. 405 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:11,680 Speaker 2: Let me remind you of what the Attorney General Merrick 406 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:15,680 Speaker 2: Garland had to say as he went on TV before 407 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:19,679 Speaker 2: the election, of course, delivering his remarks on the search 408 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:24,439 Speaker 2: warrant executed at President Trump's mar Lago resident And what 409 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:27,800 Speaker 2: did he say? And again put this in perspective, it's 410 00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:31,280 Speaker 2: now coming out the FBI warned the Biden administration that 411 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:36,080 Speaker 2: there was not probable cause to raid mar Lago and 412 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:41,639 Speaker 2: they rated President Trump anyway. So who made that decision, Well, 413 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:45,160 Speaker 2: we know exactly who it was. It was Merrick Garland. 414 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:47,600 Speaker 2: How do we know it because he said it. 415 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:53,280 Speaker 9: There are, however, certain points I want you to know. First, 416 00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 9: I personally approved the decision to seek a search warrant 417 00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 9: in this matter. The department does not take such a 418 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:03,800 Speaker 9: decision lately. 419 00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:08,680 Speaker 2: Which brings us back to the issue of accountability. If 420 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:12,919 Speaker 2: you look at the FBI doubting problem cause for Malago raid, 421 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:17,360 Speaker 2: then push forward because the man in charge, Merrick Garland, 422 00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:19,720 Speaker 2: says I'm telling you you're going to do it. 423 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:22,560 Speaker 1: I'm personally authorizing it. 424 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:26,879 Speaker 2: And then you have emails showing that this is a 425 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:32,280 Speaker 2: massive massive, massive problem and they're telling you don't do it, 426 00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:37,480 Speaker 2: then how is there not accountability? And let's just talk 427 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 2: a little bit more about accountability. We're now getting reporting 428 00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:44,159 Speaker 2: from Fox News Digital that they're saying the FBI not 429 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 2: only do they not believe they had problem cause to 430 00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:48,640 Speaker 2: raid President Donald Trump's Marlago home in twenty twenty two, 431 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:52,960 Speaker 2: but they move forward amid pressure directly from the Biden 432 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:56,199 Speaker 2: Justice Department, with an official saying he didn't give a 433 00:26:56,400 --> 00:27:00,920 Speaker 2: damn quote unquote about the optics of the serch. Now 434 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 2: this is all coming from these newly declassified documents. Fox 435 00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:07,240 Speaker 2: News Digital revealed emails between the FBI and the Justice 436 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:09,560 Speaker 2: Department officials in the months leading up to the August 437 00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:13,240 Speaker 2: twenty twenty two raid of the president home, with FBI 438 00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:17,480 Speaker 2: officials expressing grave concerns about a lack of probable cause 439 00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 2: to execute the sirch horrant on then front runner President 440 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:26,720 Speaker 2: Donald Trump and his residence in Palm Beach. Quote very 441 00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:29,720 Speaker 2: little has been developed related to who might be culpable 442 00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:33,919 Speaker 2: for mishandling the documents, and FBI officials serving as an 443 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:38,639 Speaker 2: assistant Special Agent in charge wrote to another FBI official 444 00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:45,920 Speaker 2: from the interviews the who has gathered information suggesting that 445 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:49,520 Speaker 2: there may be additional boxes, presumably of the same type. 446 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:53,159 Speaker 2: As we're sent back to NAR in January at mar Lago, 447 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 2: who has been drafting a search warrant affidavit related to 448 00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:01,560 Speaker 2: these potential boxes. But as some concerns that the information 449 00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:07,040 Speaker 2: is single source, has not been corroborated and may be dated, 450 00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:11,680 Speaker 2: the official continues, again, this is all in writing. Dj 451 00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:17,000 Speaker 2: ces opines, however, that the sws meet the problem cause standard. 452 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 2: Then it says this even as we continue down the 453 00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:26,399 Speaker 2: path towards a search warrant WFO believes that a reasonable 454 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:31,520 Speaker 2: conversation with the former president attorney they're talking about Donald Trump, 455 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:35,320 Speaker 2: stating that the FBI and the DOJ are reading a 456 00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 2: search warrant and have developed information that there are more 457 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 2: documents tomorrow ago ought. 458 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:44,200 Speaker 1: Not to be discounted. 459 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:46,960 Speaker 2: The official road in other words, are saying, don't do this, 460 00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:51,400 Speaker 2: don't go rate it. Talk to his lawyers. We can 461 00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:56,440 Speaker 2: probably make all this go away. Then it says in 462 00:28:56,480 --> 00:29:00,520 Speaker 2: this document this at a minimum, even and if the 463 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:04,600 Speaker 2: former president's attorney is correct, and the documents were all 464 00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 2: declassified or believed to be disclassified, it can be reasonably 465 00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:13,840 Speaker 2: argued that the documents remain sensitive and should be properly 466 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 2: secured until the matter of classification is sorted out. 467 00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:19,400 Speaker 1: The official continued. 468 00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:24,840 Speaker 2: This conversation could easily be accomplished at the same time 469 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:29,240 Speaker 2: that the WHO presses forward with the investigation and continues 470 00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 2: building out a search warrant. In other words, Hey, you 471 00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 2: guys are reacting. You don't want to go raid mar Lago. 472 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:39,040 Speaker 2: There's not probable cause. I'm telling you that this call 473 00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 2: can be done through lawyers. This is a mistake. I'm 474 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 2: telling you we don't have what we need to go 475 00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:46,760 Speaker 2: in raid mar Lago. And now we understand going back 476 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:49,560 Speaker 2: to Radcliffe, why they were placing these folders out in 477 00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:50,840 Speaker 2: the floor and taking pictures. 478 00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 1: It was all a setup. We know that. Now now 479 00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 1: here's something else is interesting. 480 00:29:56,560 --> 00:30:01,240 Speaker 2: Weeks later, an FBI agent writes an email stating this quote, 481 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:05,600 Speaker 2: we haven't generated any new facts, but keep being given 482 00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:09,320 Speaker 2: draft after draft after draft. In other words, you're going 483 00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:13,760 Speaker 2: to raid this thing. I don't care what you found. Then, 484 00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:18,760 Speaker 2: the FBI agent writes this, absent a witness coming forward 485 00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 2: with recent information about classified documents on site, at what 486 00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:25,600 Speaker 2: point is it fair to. 487 00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:29,280 Speaker 1: Table this question? Mark the agent rights. 488 00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:34,520 Speaker 2: It is time consuming for the team and not productive 489 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:40,040 Speaker 2: if there are no new facts supporting probable cause. Another 490 00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:44,280 Speaker 2: email revealed that the FBI's Washington Field office did not believe, 491 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:49,600 Speaker 2: as has articulated to the DOJ and the CS that 492 00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:52,520 Speaker 2: we have established probable cause for the search warrant for 493 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 2: classified records at mar Lago. 494 00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:59,040 Speaker 1: Then there's another line. This is what it says. 495 00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:02,040 Speaker 2: Quote the DOJ is a pine that they do not 496 00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 2: have probable cause, requesting a wide scope including residents office 497 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:12,800 Speaker 2: storage space. Another agent wrote, the FBI believe that a 498 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:19,000 Speaker 2: raid would be counterproductive their words in writing, and suggested alternatives, 499 00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:24,360 Speaker 2: less intrusive and likelier quicker options for resolution to reclaim 500 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:29,479 Speaker 2: any potential classified records. The process move forward regardless of 501 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 2: all of these concerns that were put in writing. There's 502 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:36,240 Speaker 2: even another email on August fourth of twenty twenty two, 503 00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 2: revealed the plan for the execution of the warrant, saying this, 504 00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:44,960 Speaker 2: the FBI intends for the execution of the warrant to 505 00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:48,040 Speaker 2: be handled in a professional, low key manner and to 506 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:51,440 Speaker 2: be mindful of the optics of the search and agent rights. 507 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:57,920 Speaker 2: The agent quotes then Deputy Assistant Attorney General in a meeting, saying, quote, 508 00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:01,600 Speaker 2: since we heard mister Tuskas say yesterday in the call 509 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:05,080 Speaker 2: that he quote frankly doesn't give a damn about the optics, 510 00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:10,760 Speaker 2: and mister Brad has already built a antagonistic relationship with 511 00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 2: Trump attorneys, I think it is more than fair to 512 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:18,520 Speaker 2: say that the DOJ contact with Trump attorneys just prior 513 00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 2: to the execution of the warrant will not go well. 514 00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 2: DOJ said as much yesterday. The agent writes, it also 515 00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:30,280 Speaker 2: thinks that it is fair to say that if FBI calls, 516 00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:34,640 Speaker 2: having in mind officers safety to the optics of the search, 517 00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:37,040 Speaker 2: and the desire to conduct the search in a professional 518 00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:40,400 Speaker 2: and low key manner, there is a far better chance 519 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:44,040 Speaker 2: that the execution will go more smoothly and we may 520 00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:48,320 Speaker 2: actually gain some measure of cooperation which could go some 521 00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:52,480 Speaker 2: way to resolving the mishandling of classified records and the 522 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:57,880 Speaker 2: investigation that is being conducted. The agent added, I understand 523 00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:02,160 Speaker 2: that this request may not go well at DOJ. However, 524 00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:05,720 Speaker 2: it is the FBI serving and executing the search, and 525 00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 2: it will be our personnel who will have to deal 526 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 2: with the reaction to that first contact. So what happened 527 00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:18,160 Speaker 2: the FBI rated mar Lago execute the sirch Horns as 528 00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:22,800 Speaker 2: part of the investigation into alleged improper retention of classified 529 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:26,560 Speaker 2: records that they and writing said, there's no probable cause 530 00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:29,719 Speaker 2: for this, and why do they do it? For one reason, 531 00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:34,480 Speaker 2: because the Biden administration weaponized the government to try to 532 00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:38,640 Speaker 2: take out their political opponent and put in jail the 533 00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:42,000 Speaker 2: sitting president now of the United States of America, a 534 00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:45,240 Speaker 2: guy by the name of Donald Trump.
