1
00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:07,560
Speaker 1: This is the crimal scream of a dying regime. Pray

2
00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:10,960
Speaker 1: for our enemies because we're going to medieval.

3
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:11,119
Speaker 2: On these people.

4
00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:14,920
Speaker 1: You've not got a free shot. All these networks lying

5
00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:17,960
Speaker 1: about the people. The people have Patti, but belly full

6
00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:19,599
Speaker 1: of it. I know you don't like hearing that.

7
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:21,280
Speaker 3: I know you've tried to do everything in the world

8
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:22,680
Speaker 3: to stop that, but you're not going to stop it.

9
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:23,800
Speaker 1: It's going to happen.

10
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:26,119
Speaker 4: And where do people like that go to share the

11
00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:28,640
Speaker 4: big line? Mega media?

12
00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:31,880
Speaker 3: I wish in my soul, I wish that any of

13
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:35,680
Speaker 3: these people had a conscience. Ask yourself, what is my

14
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:37,360
Speaker 3: task and what is my purpose?

15
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 5: If that answer is to save my country, this country.

16
00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:44,159
Speaker 1: Will be saved.

17
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:44,680
Speaker 3: Room.

18
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:47,280
Speaker 4: Here's your host, Stephen Kvan.

19
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:55,560
Speaker 3: It's Wednesday, twenty seven, August, year of our lower twenty twenty five.

20
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:57,440
Speaker 3: I think you noticed that there's so much going on

21
00:00:57,480 --> 00:00:59,720
Speaker 3: in August. No one took vacation. I only think the

22
00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:04,479
Speaker 3: morning Joe Krawd did. Everybody was at it the entire

23
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 3: time because President Trump's driving the action. Here, I'll get

24
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:12,240
Speaker 3: into the Wigel story. In lawd Wogo's put up a poll.

25
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:15,360
Speaker 3: It's like twelve hundred people. So it's not a tiny

26
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:18,480
Speaker 3: pole that sorts fifty three percent wanted to run for

27
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:22,360
Speaker 3: a third term. I want to go, Caroline, I want

28
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:24,960
Speaker 3: to get you back in first off, seizing the institutions.

29
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 3: So when we talk about this coalition, and we do

30
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 3: have a coalition, and I agree with you, the major

31
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:33,399
Speaker 3: fights between the populist right, the populist nationalist right, and

32
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:37,560
Speaker 3: still the globalist tech bros to come. But even the

33
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 3: more traditional Republican party part the neoliberal neocons, which is

34
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,839
Speaker 3: the Tom Cottons and Lindsey Grahams. You've got the Ted

35
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:47,440
Speaker 3: Cruise in the round, the Sander, the old traditional limited

36
00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 3: government folks right, which is still a big contingent. You've

37
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 3: got the religious right, the evangelicals, those three groups alone

38
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 3: before you leave the tech right. Some of the things

39
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:01,400
Speaker 3: President Trumper he's doing, Yes, he is listening to a

40
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 3: lot of different people, but he's driving in a direction

41
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:09,200
Speaker 3: that's not traditional Republicanism, and he's seizing the institutions. This

42
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:11,959
Speaker 3: thing with the Federal Reserve. You know, we've had David

43
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 3: malpass On a lot over the last month. David now

44
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 3: Here is on the short list for this new governorship

45
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 3: that that's going to come open. And Scott besstt as

46
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:21,960
Speaker 3: you know, as a safe pair of hands. He's not

47
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,679
Speaker 3: a guy that runs around the reason he's Secretary Treasury.

48
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:27,560
Speaker 3: He's just his calm demeanor and the fact that he

49
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 3: doesn't go out, you know and jump on things. Scott

50
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 3: send this morning, Hey, she's got to be prosecuted. She

51
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:35,720
Speaker 3: has not denied the mortgage fraud. And he said, how

52
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:37,400
Speaker 3: do you have somebody as a governor of the Federal

53
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:41,239
Speaker 3: Reserve right that that's you know, has had mortgage fraud,

54
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 3: pretty blatant mortgage fraud. So talk to me about the

55
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:47,000
Speaker 3: season of the institutions, whether it's doing this thing. And

56
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 3: you've got these liberals. I think he had Glasner on

57
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:55,000
Speaker 3: arguing there's no crime in DC, that this is overreach.

58
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:58,240
Speaker 3: Talk about the seizure of the institutions, whether it's the courts,

59
00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 3: whether it's the the Just Department, the FBI, whether it's

60
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 3: the the UH, you know, the federals ar and remember

61
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:09,240
Speaker 3: the war. We're in the strategy of the maximalists. We

62
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 3: want to put the pedal to the metal because we

63
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 3: say we're burning daylight. You got to get these things done.

64
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:17,679
Speaker 3: So where the whether it's redissarting. You know, take take

65
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:20,000
Speaker 3: the thirty seats and take them now Texas still ohs

66
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,640
Speaker 3: is another five or the five they got? How do

67
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:24,839
Speaker 3: you think one? How do you think President Trump's doing

68
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:28,040
Speaker 3: in that regard given the three hour you know, basically

69
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:31,080
Speaker 3: border directors, mean you saw it yesterday and couple with

70
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:34,120
Speaker 3: hot do you hold that traditional part of the that

71
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,920
Speaker 3: you came from quite frankly of the of the Republican Party, ma'am.

72
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 6: Well, I think he's doing fantastic.

73
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 7: I did love the premise of this Axios article that

74
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 7: you referenced in the beginning, which was quote Trump has

75
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:51,160
Speaker 7: exerted decisive control over every edge of the executive branch. Well, yeah,

76
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:53,560
Speaker 7: he is the head of the executive branch. So I

77
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 7: think it's a good thing that he has taken decisive control.

78
00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 7: But what is funny is that these journalists are just

79
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 7: so blown away by Trump. It's because they're used to

80
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 7: these frankly cough politicians that bow to every institution that

81
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 7: they were actually elected to governover that the constitution directs

82
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 7: them to governover. But somehow they actually bended the knee

83
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 7: to these institutions. So much of Washington, our elected officials

84
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 7: were run by the institutions.

85
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:20,800
Speaker 6: It is supposed to be the other way around.

86
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 7: And so that's why when Trump has come in and

87
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 7: truly taken over the institutions of which he is in

88
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 7: charge of and in fact should, it is an earthquake

89
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 7: in DC. But I think we should talk about the

90
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,480
Speaker 7: key genius here, who truly.

91
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 6: Is Stephen Miller.

92
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 7: Stephen Miller has studied these institutions and how to dismantle

93
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:45,080
Speaker 7: them since he was sixteen years old, and he came

94
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:50,479
Speaker 7: into this administration not only prepared to dismantle them, but emboldened.

95
00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 6: By President Trump to do so.

96
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 7: And he really is the driving force behind what I

97
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,240
Speaker 7: think is an unbelievable success.

98
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:58,840
Speaker 6: And in the Axios article they lay out a lot

99
00:04:58,880 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 6: of those successes.

100
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 7: Then one thing I kind of thought was where they

101
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,159
Speaker 7: say there's still remaining resistance that needs to be done

102
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 7: once they brought up the judicial branch, which obviously is

103
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 7: true now it.

104
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 6: Is the judicial branch is its own branch of government.

105
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,400
Speaker 7: I blame a lot of the problems with the judicial

106
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 7: branch actually around Mitch McConnell, Leonard Leo and the idiots

107
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 7: that put in these like Bush, you know, Republican judges

108
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,719
Speaker 7: in the first Trump term that have been disasters, and

109
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:26,839
Speaker 7: so this time around, I'm glad we're not listening to

110
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:30,240
Speaker 7: the Leonard Leo and those folks. But you know they

111
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:32,760
Speaker 7: bring up the media as being remaining resistance. Well, we

112
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 7: do have a brilliant FCC chairman and Brendan Carr, who

113
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:38,479
Speaker 7: I think is doing a lot to dismantle the media.

114
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:40,920
Speaker 7: I'd still would love to see him actually strip one

115
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:45,400
Speaker 7: of these news outlets news outlets from their licenses, something

116
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:48,839
Speaker 7: Trump's talked about. But he's won a number of settlements

117
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:52,160
Speaker 7: for settlements against some of these organizations, and I can't

118
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:53,760
Speaker 7: wait to see what's going to happen with the Wall

119
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 7: Street Journal. So overall, I'm very, very pleased, and I

120
00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 7: want to see more dismantling the institutions.

121
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:00,600
Speaker 6: I love it.

122
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:02,799
Speaker 1: Hang off, hang a second.

123
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,360
Speaker 3: A couple of the big wins that we because remember

124
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,160
Speaker 3: the war Room is also the home of the neo

125
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 3: Brandiician movement, where we think Lena Khan did a tremendous

126
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:14,720
Speaker 3: job in the first term, where we're against this concentration.

127
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 3: You just talked about the tech pros folks. The difference

128
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 3: in the first term and the second term in those

129
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,599
Speaker 3: years in between is the concentration of power and big pharma,

130
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 3: big ag, big tech, right the big media wall streets.

131
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 3: It's the concentration of power. They're taking all the lobbyists,

132
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,600
Speaker 3: they're taking, you know, all the top law firms, all

133
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:36,840
Speaker 3: the communications firms. We've got two massive cases working on

134
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 3: and now we find out Zuckerberg's back in the Oval office.

135
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:44,240
Speaker 3: You're hearing and you know, the FTC Andrew Ferguson has

136
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,160
Speaker 3: done a tremendous job taking a case that was filed

137
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 3: in the last days of President Trump's first term. Lena

138
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 3: Kahan kind of perfected it over her time, and Andrew Ferguson's

139
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 3: got them in court to essentially break up a big

140
00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:58,599
Speaker 3: part of Facebook. And now we hear that, you know,

141
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 3: Zuckerberg's back hovered around the White House. Gates spent two

142
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 3: hours after the President's three hour board meeting or cabinet meeting.

143
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 3: Gates is in the is in the is in the

144
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 3: Oval for two hours arguing his case on vaccines. Usaid

145
00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,600
Speaker 3: all that, so are we going to continue to win?

146
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:22,120
Speaker 3: This are the forces of concentration of power, Money and

147
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:25,040
Speaker 3: power are going to thwart our efforts here to try

148
00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 3: to break up some of these institutions. They particularly try

149
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:31,440
Speaker 3: to break up certain of these institutions of whether you know,

150
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 3: whether it's Facebook, whether it's Google, et cetera.

151
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 1: Ma'am, well, I think.

152
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 7: That there's a difference between institutions and companies where I

153
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:42,760
Speaker 7: think that we are winning right now in the Trump

154
00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:46,120
Speaker 7: administration is breaking up institutions. For example, putting Darren Baty

155
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 7: as the head of the what is it, the National

156
00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:51,080
Speaker 7: Institute for Peace, which was just a massive money laundering

157
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 7: building organization in DC to funnel money to usaid that

158
00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 7: those institutions were winning. I still the corporations are its

159
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,880
Speaker 7: own massive Well, I like you thought, Lena Khon was

160
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,600
Speaker 7: one of the most brilliant people that we've seen. I

161
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:07,160
Speaker 7: wish actually she would have stuck around for this Trump administration.

162
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 7: So how Trump and this administration is going to handle

163
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:13,480
Speaker 7: the corporations is still something that we are kind of

164
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 7: waiting and watching. I've been very nervous to see the

165
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:20,280
Speaker 7: embracement I guess of folks like Zuckerberg and Gates and others,

166
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 7: but also I understand what the Trump administration is doing.

167
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 7: They they're bringing in all sorts of voices trying to

168
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 7: make the tent bigger. But we'll see when it matters.

169
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:30,760
Speaker 7: Just Trump hold the line against these folks, and I

170
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,240
Speaker 7: think that it's still too early to tell, but I

171
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 7: have I have a lot of faith in President Trump

172
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:37,320
Speaker 7: to do it, and I'm certainly going to remain to

173
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 7: be vocal and as you are, and to hope for

174
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:41,599
Speaker 7: those outcomes.

175
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,920
Speaker 6: But yeah, these guys are definitely they are coming around.

176
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 7: They're donating a lot of money through President Trump's different groups.

177
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 7: But again, just because you donate money does not mean

178
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,800
Speaker 7: you're gonna get what you want into this Trump administration.

179
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 7: And so these institutions. You're putting Rick Renell in charge

180
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 7: of the Kennedy Center, genius. What he is doing over

181
00:08:57,760 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 7: there is brilliant. So I do like to see that.

182
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:04,319
Speaker 7: But the corporations are still a big, big problem.

183
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:06,719
Speaker 3: Let's go to by the way, President Trump's got a

184
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:08,760
Speaker 3: couple of things on true Social today. One is about

185
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:12,360
Speaker 3: Carl Rove and that's that problem at Fox continues to exist.

186
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:14,720
Speaker 3: The other is about he wants to bring I think

187
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,760
Speaker 3: Rico charges against Soros. Is that a little bit missing

188
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,480
Speaker 3: the boat. Talk to me about Arabella and some of

189
00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:25,320
Speaker 3: these organizations that we quite we cannot totally figure out

190
00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:29,320
Speaker 3: how some of these institutions on the left get their cash.

191
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 3: Is sourus yesterday's news, and Arabella is where the focus

192
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 3: should be, ma'am.

193
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:38,440
Speaker 7: No, because Soros and Arabella are directly linked. In fact,

194
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:40,800
Speaker 7: the person who's basically in charge of Arabella Visors right

195
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:44,960
Speaker 7: now is Soros's son, Alex Soros. So let's say Arabellavisor's

196
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,200
Speaker 7: was formed in two thousand and five, and it was

197
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 7: formed after the Democrats had lost the House, Senate and

198
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:51,199
Speaker 7: the presidency.

199
00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:53,079
Speaker 6: And so George Soros called.

200
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:55,439
Speaker 7: A meeting of the top progressive donors in the country

201
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,439
Speaker 7: and then invited a couple of the top political consultants.

202
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 7: And the donors told them, you just electively wasted hundreds

203
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:03,200
Speaker 7: of millions of our dollars.

204
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 6: You have nothing to show for it.

205
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:07,199
Speaker 7: Come back to us with a plan that involves funding

206
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:11,280
Speaker 7: ideas and institutions that will live beyond one election cycle.

207
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,080
Speaker 7: From that meeting, you got Arabella Advisors.

208
00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 6: It was conceived there, and it was it's, you know, quote.

209
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:21,640
Speaker 7: A philanthropic consulting company that manages tens of billions, some

210
00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 7: say upwards of seventy five billion with a B and

211
00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:28,199
Speaker 7: foundation support and those foundations support left wing wote causes

212
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:32,880
Speaker 7: and institutions. Now arabell essentially runs about two hundred nonprofits.

213
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 7: They're the fiscal sponsor for them. But really what they

214
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:39,200
Speaker 7: do is they are they fund these grassroots groups which

215
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:42,960
Speaker 7: are anything, but they are actually political, you know, political

216
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,680
Speaker 7: run entities. And so for example, the No Kings protests,

217
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 7: Arabel Advisors funded that. It's funded largely by a lot

218
00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:52,120
Speaker 7: of foreign money as well, but they poured twenty million

219
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 7: most recently behind the groups funding the protests of Trump's

220
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:58,720
Speaker 7: DC crime crackdown. And when Mark Zuckerberg wanted to purchase

221
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:02,679
Speaker 7: the twenty four our twenty twenty election, he spent three

222
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 7: hundred and fifty million dollars to do that.

223
00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:05,320
Speaker 6: And where did he turn to?

224
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:08,600
Speaker 7: Arabel Advisors Arabellas who ran the Center for Tech in

225
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:12,560
Speaker 7: Civil Life the CTCL where Zuckerberg famously gave that three

226
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,720
Speaker 7: hundred and fifty million dollars to turn out voters. But

227
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:19,080
Speaker 7: really they just focused that money in twenty six blue

228
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:23,280
Speaker 7: counties and swing states. They took over those counties, election systems,

229
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:26,800
Speaker 7: printed ballots. And here we are, so I the buck

230
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:29,680
Speaker 7: stops with Arabel Advisors. It is the I mean, it

231
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:33,160
Speaker 7: runs everything, all of these institutions, and we have to

232
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,400
Speaker 7: go after them. The next tip I want to see

233
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,160
Speaker 7: Scott Besson, who is now the acting director of the IRS.

234
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:40,680
Speaker 7: The most important thing he can do is announce an

235
00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:45,600
Speaker 7: investigation into Arabel Advisors. These nonprofits, that's how they operate.

236
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,120
Speaker 7: They are not nonprofits. They get the tax seductions on

237
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:49,840
Speaker 7: their way in there, but they are meddling in every

238
00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:54,960
Speaker 7: single institution, corporation, and also our government and the way

239
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:57,040
Speaker 7: that we live our lives every day. So I think

240
00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:58,800
Speaker 7: it is the most important thing we can keep our

241
00:11:58,840 --> 00:11:59,200
Speaker 7: eyes on.

242
00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:04,160
Speaker 3: The first thing we could do is the ability to

243
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:07,760
Speaker 3: donate their stock right on a tax free basis, right

244
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,280
Speaker 3: and then financies things. We aret to cut that out

245
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,439
Speaker 3: that would stop them wealthy from doing this. Last thing

246
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:14,000
Speaker 3: before I let you go, I know you get a

247
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 3: bounce still Zuckerberg and Gates, I mean, Gates gets two

248
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:19,960
Speaker 3: hours with the president. New York Times reporting he's got

249
00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 3: two hours with the president. Gates and Zuckerberg are still

250
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:25,439
Speaker 3: getting How they still getting this type of access when

251
00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 3: they've been on the other side of the football for

252
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 3: so long?

253
00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:28,600
Speaker 1: How does that work?

254
00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:30,160
Speaker 4: Well?

255
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:32,480
Speaker 7: I do think Trump is getting concessions from them. Bill

256
00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:34,240
Speaker 7: Gates has been begging for this meeting.

257
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,240
Speaker 6: They met. I believe they had dinner in late.

258
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:40,640
Speaker 7: December at mar Laga, before Trump had been inaugurated, and

259
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:42,200
Speaker 7: then there was a story in April by the New

260
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,360
Speaker 7: York Times about how Bill Gates was desperately trying to

261
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:45,360
Speaker 7: get in and see the president.

262
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:47,400
Speaker 6: You wouldn't he took the meeting yesterday.

263
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 7: But what also came out yesterday was that Bill Gates

264
00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:53,679
Speaker 7: was he's one of the largest financial backers of Arabell Advisors,

265
00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:56,200
Speaker 7: that he was pulling his four hundred and fifty million

266
00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 7: dollars out of Arabell Advisors. So I would like to

267
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:02,079
Speaker 7: hope that it was actually the Trump administration that pressured

268
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:03,920
Speaker 7: them to do this and then said, fine, we'll take

269
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:06,480
Speaker 7: your meeting, so that if that is the case, I

270
00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:07,760
Speaker 7: don't know that to be the case, but.

271
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:09,440
Speaker 6: If that is the case, then that's a big week

272
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 6: win for Trump.

273
00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 7: And we all know Bill Gates went in and advocated

274
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 7: for funding of vaccines all over the world and whatever

275
00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:19,320
Speaker 7: crap that he always advocates for. Doesn't mean Trump's gonna

276
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,480
Speaker 7: do it. But Trump got him to pull his money

277
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,480
Speaker 7: out of Arabella and that will win in my book.

278
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:29,440
Speaker 3: Carolyn, Caroline, where's your social media now that you're back

Speaker 3: we're gonna go live. I want to introduce now Paul

335
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 3: Glastros from Washington Monthly, the editor over there. Paul, I

336
00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:00,520
Speaker 3: always love when people try to do something totally outside

337
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:02,840
Speaker 3: the box, in different differently.

338
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:04,800
Speaker 1: That kind of grabs you.

339
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:07,880
Speaker 3: There's been a lot of these college guides, but you

340
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 3: guys have done something totally different. You've actually conceived I

341
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:14,760
Speaker 3: call it a populist guide to college. You've actually taken

342
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:18,040
Speaker 3: what's out there and looked at it through fresh eyes

343
00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:23,720
Speaker 3: for quite frankly, the bottom ninety percent, and the thing

344
00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:26,680
Speaker 3: is quite fascinating. Walk us through how you guys conceived it.

345
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 3: What is this college guide about and what does it

346
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:30,720
Speaker 3: tell us?

347
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:34,560
Speaker 9: So this is a twentieth anniversary, Thanks for having me on,

348
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:38,200
Speaker 9: by the way, twentieth anniversary of the Washington and the

349
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:43,200
Speaker 9: College Guide. In rankings, this year we redid our methodology

350
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:47,440
Speaker 9: to put an even finer point on what we think

351
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:53,440
Speaker 9: college rankings, which we think are important. But the dozen

352
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:56,160
Speaker 9: of them that are out there, especially US News, totally

353
00:16:56,320 --> 00:17:02,920
Speaker 9: miss what's important about college rankings. You know, our college

354
00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:09,240
Speaker 9: rankings are about the value for average students, students from

355
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:12,760
Speaker 9: modest means, students who are poor, who are working class,

356
00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:16,959
Speaker 9: and they're also for the taxpayers. You know, the average

357
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:21,040
Speaker 9: taxpayer spends about seventeen hundred dollars a year on higher

358
00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:25,359
Speaker 9: education because the government spends half a trillion dollars on

359
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:29,679
Speaker 9: higher education, and they, you know, students and taxpayers want

360
00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:33,760
Speaker 9: certain things from higher education. We measure those things. And

361
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:37,359
Speaker 9: what are those things. It's number one, upward mobility for

362
00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:42,080
Speaker 9: median income and below students, right the people who need

363
00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:47,000
Speaker 9: entred into the middle class. Number two, the research that

364
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:57,080
Speaker 9: drives human flourishing economic growth. And then three the encouraging

365
00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:00,880
Speaker 9: students to be active citizens, to vote, to serve their

366
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:04,199
Speaker 9: country in the military and AmeriCorps. So those are the

367
00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:07,840
Speaker 9: things we measure and the end result. And that's very

368
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:11,879
Speaker 9: different from US News and the other dozen imitators, because

369
00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:18,320
Speaker 9: what they're about is capturing the eyeballs of the upper

370
00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:21,359
Speaker 9: middle students from the upper middle class and wealthy families

371
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:25,360
Speaker 9: who have been taught since birth to strive to get

372
00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 9: into the most selective schools in order to stay in

373
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:32,359
Speaker 9: the upper middle class, in the wealthy class, and so

374
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:41,320
Speaker 9: they're metrics all somehow, surprise surprise, result in the same

375
00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:48,399
Speaker 9: twenty or thirty mostly private or big flagship public universities

376
00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:52,679
Speaker 9: in the top so that your Harvard's, your Yales, you're

377
00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:56,200
Speaker 9: you know, and so forth. And in our ranking, it's

378
00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:58,959
Speaker 9: quite different when you measure things the way we measure

379
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:02,840
Speaker 9: it for the app person, in the average taxpayer, a

380
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:09,280
Speaker 9: lot of mostly unsung state schools and small liberal arts

381
00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 9: colleges share the top thirty with the elite. And in fact,

382
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:18,679
Speaker 9: the highest ranking elite school at Princeton is number five

383
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 9: on our rankings, behind three California State university campuses, including

384
00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:29,480
Speaker 9: Fresno State number two. And the number one school is

385
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:33,960
Speaker 9: probably a college ninety nine percent of your listeners and

386
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:39,879
Speaker 9: viewers have never heard of, and that's Berea College in Berea, Kentucky.

387
00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:43,080
Speaker 10: And it's just a fascinating school.

388
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:47,560
Speaker 9: And there's all these hidden gems for people available at

389
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:49,960
Speaker 9: Washington Monthly dot com that they're just not going to

390
00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 9: find on other rankings.

391
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:53,840
Speaker 1: It was amazing.

392
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 3: Well, I want to go back through the methodology, because

393
00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:59,000
Speaker 3: you're right, all the other twenty things have the same

394
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:01,960
Speaker 3: thirty or four fifty schools all rank and people should

395
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:04,440
Speaker 3: know it's highly competitive among those guys because they want

396
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:07,560
Speaker 3: to go up. Those rankings are intensely worked. It's like

397
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 3: the Forbes four hundred, right. These guys work at NonStop

398
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:12,600
Speaker 3: because it's very important to be number. You know, for

399
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:15,680
Speaker 3: Harvard is it wants to be above Stanford once, to

400
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:19,440
Speaker 3: be above Princident, once, to be above Yale. Walk me through.

401
00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:21,439
Speaker 3: I want to go back through the methodology. How did

402
00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:24,040
Speaker 3: you guys think this through and how did you apply

403
00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:26,400
Speaker 3: it and how did you get the information related to that?

404
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:29,000
Speaker 10: Well, funny story.

405
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,320
Speaker 9: I used to work for US News for ten years,

406
00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:35,480
Speaker 9: so their college ranking was paying my mortgage. I didn't

407
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:39,680
Speaker 9: work on the ranking, but it was part of what

408
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:44,440
Speaker 9: we did. And there was always within US News personnel

409
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:47,840
Speaker 9: kind of sense that something was rotten in Denmark. So

410
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:52,919
Speaker 9: when I took over the Washington Monthly some years later,

411
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:58,280
Speaker 9: we decided to do some investigative pieces about the US

412
00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:02,800
Speaker 9: News rankings. We found some pretty hinky stuff about their methodology,

413
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 9: and then we said, all right, smart guy, if you

414
00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:07,360
Speaker 9: think you can do a better job, we gave ourselves

415
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:09,680
Speaker 9: the challenge of doing a better job. So in two

416
00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:14,679
Speaker 9: thousand and five we created these alternative rankings. And you know,

417
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 9: to understand our rankings, you got to understand US News is.

418
00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:22,480
Speaker 9: And they've all evolved over time. But basically, what US

419
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:27,240
Speaker 9: News and most of its competitors do is they measure

420
00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:31,760
Speaker 9: colleges by how exclusive they are Number one, right, how

421
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:34,880
Speaker 9: few people you know they get in, how many people

422
00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:40,560
Speaker 9: they don't get in. Number two wealth, how much spending

423
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:45,520
Speaker 9: per student, you know, And it used to be they

424
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:50,800
Speaker 9: would measure the donors who would give them money. And

425
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:58,240
Speaker 9: number three prestige, Right, is this self referential survey they

426
00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:02,040
Speaker 9: do that asks other college leaders what do you think

427
00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:05,480
Speaker 9: of this college? And it's all sort of, well, it's

428
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:09,760
Speaker 9: prestigious because people say it's prestigious. So when you do

429
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:14,760
Speaker 9: it that way, you automatically lift to the top the

430
00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:18,040
Speaker 9: Harvard's and the Yales and the Princetons and the Columbias

431
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:23,720
Speaker 9: and the Mits and so forth. We do the opposite, right,

432
00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:28,440
Speaker 9: We don't have any SAT requirements. We're not looking at selectivity.

433
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:32,240
Speaker 9: That doesn't get you anything in our rankings. In fact,

434
00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:39,440
Speaker 9: you know, our rankings wind up giving bonuses to students,

435
00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:44,160
Speaker 9: to schools that take in more kids on PELL right

436
00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:48,879
Speaker 9: on pel grants. PEL grants are the grants from the

437
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:52,320
Speaker 9: federal government that go to moderate and low income students.

438
00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:56,320
Speaker 9: The more PEL grants you take in as a percentage

439
00:22:56,359 --> 00:23:01,000
Speaker 9: and the better those students do, the higher you are

440
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:03,480
Speaker 9: on our rankings. So it's just a very different way

441
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:05,639
Speaker 9: of looking at it, and you get a different result.

442
00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:11,080
Speaker 3: You've gone You started at a you started what a

443
00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,399
Speaker 3: university Missouri and then went to Northwestern. Talked to us

444
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:14,960
Speaker 3: about the because I did the same thing, you know,

445
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:16,800
Speaker 3: I and this is why I talk about the H

446
00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:19,119
Speaker 3: one B visas all the time, about the kids that

447
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:22,960
Speaker 3: grinded through the STEM programs and went to engineering schools

448
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:24,760
Speaker 3: and computers, These guys that were number one in their

449
00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:27,000
Speaker 3: class or the top and the hard courses. You know,

450
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,399
Speaker 3: I had I had a while that you know, I

451
00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:31,440
Speaker 3: kind of phoned it in right and I went to

452
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:34,439
Speaker 3: land Grant University start off before Georgetown and Harvard. I

453
00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:36,680
Speaker 3: worked my way up the food chain. But you did

454
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:39,159
Speaker 3: also when you find out when you go to these institutions,

455
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:42,159
Speaker 3: it's about the teachers, It's about the people around it

456
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:44,119
Speaker 3: that want to learn. I mean, and that's why I

457
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,560
Speaker 3: think is so fascinating about your guide. You actually lay

458
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,920
Speaker 3: it out that, hey, there's a whole world out here

459
00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:50,920
Speaker 3: that you don't have to pay one hundred thousand bucks

460
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:53,240
Speaker 3: a year if you really want an education.

461
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:55,359
Speaker 1: Tell me about your journey.

462
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:58,520
Speaker 10: Yeah, well, I was, you know, not the greatest student

463
00:23:58,560 --> 00:23:59,000
Speaker 10: in the world.

464
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:02,320
Speaker 9: Uh a elementary and middle school, and toward the end

465
00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:04,400
Speaker 9: of high school, I finally kind of began to buckle down.

466
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:06,159
Speaker 10: But I didn't have great scores or anything.

467
00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 9: So I went to where everybody in my subdivision their

468
00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:12,359
Speaker 9: my suburb of Saint Louis went to, which is, uh,

469
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:14,640
Speaker 9: you know, a Missouri State school, University of Missouri. Good,

470
00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:18,240
Speaker 9: you know, it's the flagship and and what I and

471
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:20,640
Speaker 9: then I, you know, for for a variety of reasons,

472
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:24,320
Speaker 9: transferred to Northwestern. My brother was there, my best friend

473
00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:27,120
Speaker 9: was there. Anyway, what I found was that the quality

474
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:30,280
Speaker 9: of the professors at Northwestern were excellent, but they were

475
00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:33,200
Speaker 9: no more excellent than the quality of the professors at

476
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:37,480
Speaker 9: at Missou. They did, they were we have a plethora

477
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:42,080
Speaker 9: of very smart people getting uh, you know, degrees in

478
00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:46,399
Speaker 9: this country, struggling to find places to teach. And so,

479
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:50,880
Speaker 9: you know, these universities have their pick of brilliant minds,

480
00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:54,399
Speaker 9: and so that the difference in the quality of the

481
00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:55,600
Speaker 9: teaching is not so great.

482
00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:59,000
Speaker 10: And that kind of opened my mind to the idea that.

483
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:04,560
Speaker 9: This hierarch key at US News was mollarchy and and so.

484
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:10,680
Speaker 9: And in our current issue I mentioned, uh, Fresno State.

485
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:12,800
Speaker 9: I don't know if you know about Fresno State. Freenszo

486
00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:15,480
Speaker 9: State is in the heart of the Central Valley, California,

487
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:20,480
Speaker 9: right in Fresno, and they take in total open access school.

488
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:22,480
Speaker 9: It's a kind of school you might have gone to, Steve.

489
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:25,720
Speaker 9: But a lot of their students come from very poor

490
00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:29,760
Speaker 9: backgrounds and the president of the school himself came from

491
00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:30,720
Speaker 9: a farm family.

492
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:31,399
Speaker 7: Uh.

493
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:34,960
Speaker 9: And a lot of these students are are you know,

494
00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:39,680
Speaker 9: dirt poor or modest income. They they don't charge too

495
00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:43,520
Speaker 9: much money for the degree. They graduate at higher rates

496
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:47,879
Speaker 9: than you would expect given their demographics. They earn more

497
00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 9: than you would expect given their demographics. And a lot

498
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:54,280
Speaker 9: of these kids, some of them anyway, go back to

499
00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:56,680
Speaker 9: work and they stay in in the area. They don't,

500
00:25:56,760 --> 00:26:00,520
Speaker 9: you know, jet off to New York or whatever. They

501
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:02,399
Speaker 9: stay there in the Central Valley for the most part,

502
00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:05,800
Speaker 9: and some of them go back to become managers of

503
00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:09,840
Speaker 9: the agricultural firms where they used to pick crops. Right.

504
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:13,800
Speaker 9: That's what higher education at its best bought.

505
00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:14,080
Speaker 10: To be doing.

506
00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:19,639
Speaker 3: It's yeah, hang on, I want to hold you through

507
00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:23,560
Speaker 3: the break, okay. Paul Glastros from the Washington month And

508
00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:25,600
Speaker 3: the reason is, I've got a great story when I

509
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 3: first saw this and one of you guys showed it

510
00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:30,080
Speaker 3: to us when you had Fresno State so high. I've

511
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:35,760
Speaker 3: got a great Victor David Hanson story about Fresno State.

512
00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:38,919
Speaker 3: And the reason I think this Washington Monthly ranking is

513
00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:41,360
Speaker 3: very important. You guys are to look into it. Sure,

514
00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:44,320
Speaker 3: Commercial break. Paul Glassis from the Washington Monthly. On the

515
00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:46,160
Speaker 3: other side, also, we're going to go to this press

516
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:47,719
Speaker 3: conference as soon as it's set up.

Speaker 3: Back so and Paul glass is with glascerouses with us

520
00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:10,640
Speaker 3: from the Washing Monthly. This incredible new guide to colleges.

521
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:12,479
Speaker 3: I recommend everybody. And he's going to tell you how

522
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:14,680
Speaker 3: to get there, but ought to get into it today,

523
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:17,640
Speaker 3: particularly if you got kids thinking about college, or if

524
00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:19,840
Speaker 3: you're a someone that's going to end up paying or

525
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:24,120
Speaker 3: help paying your kids college, or if you're a taxpayer.

526
00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:26,800
Speaker 3: Kind of a buried lead. There was at seventeen hundred

527
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:29,240
Speaker 3: bucks a year, so you got skin in the game. Paul,

528
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,359
Speaker 3: About when I saw that you had Fresno State. I

529
00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:34,720
Speaker 3: don't even know if Victory Davis Hanson remembers this, but

530
00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:36,600
Speaker 3: the first time I became aware of him was I

531
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:39,960
Speaker 3: think in the late nineties. I'm reading my copy of

532
00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:43,239
Speaker 3: the Financial Times of London, which I know people know

533
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:46,439
Speaker 3: that I'm as one of my favorite, not the favorite paper,

534
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:48,720
Speaker 3: and they've got an op ed about this guy I

535
00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:52,119
Speaker 3: never heard of from Fresno State. And he's talking about

536
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:55,000
Speaker 3: because he's a classicist, that that's what he teaches at

537
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:58,520
Speaker 3: Fresno State. He describes as students exactly like you just

538
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:01,560
Speaker 3: describe him, because he lives up he's he comes off

539
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:04,919
Speaker 3: a farming family up in that in the valley up

540
00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:07,080
Speaker 3: there near Fresno State. He talks about his students being

541
00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:12,040
Speaker 3: these working class Hispanic and working class American kids and

542
00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:14,920
Speaker 3: Hispanic Americans that worked on the farms, et cetera. He's

543
00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:20,119
Speaker 3: teaching Thacidides, the Peloponnesian War, he's teaching Heratus, He's teaching

544
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:23,680
Speaker 3: all the classic Greeks and Romans, and they can't get

545
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:26,280
Speaker 3: enough of it, and they're relating it to their experience

546
00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:30,320
Speaker 3: in life and growing up. And he just says, hey,

547
00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 3: you know, I've gone to some of the better schools

548
00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:35,960
Speaker 3: in the country, but this is an open Uh. You know,

549
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:38,760
Speaker 3: these folks are are mesmerized by this. They just need

550
00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:41,960
Speaker 3: to be given access to this information. And now he's

551
00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:44,360
Speaker 3: at He's at Stanford many of the years later coming

552
00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:46,760
Speaker 3: off the Fresno State faculty.

553
00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 1: So there's a lot there.

554
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:51,240
Speaker 3: I mean, that's why Fresno State, the places like Fresno

555
00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:55,200
Speaker 3: State are tremendous value for the dollar. And if you

556
00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:57,400
Speaker 3: get in there and you and you want an education,

557
00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:00,200
Speaker 3: and and you meet the right people, you can do

558
00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:02,080
Speaker 3: just as well there as you can do in Princeton

559
00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:08,120
Speaker 3: and Harvard and Yale in Northwestern Sir, your your observations.

560
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:11,000
Speaker 9: Well, first, you know, Victor David Hanson's first book, I

561
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:15,040
Speaker 9: think was about the Greek way of war, and uh,

562
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 9: you know, he he wrote quite specifically about the efforts

563
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:26,040
Speaker 9: of different Greek UH city states to destroy each other's crops,

564
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:28,479
Speaker 9: and he said that is almost impossible to do. I

565
00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 9: know because I grew up on a farm, so so

566
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:33,400
Speaker 9: you know that that story is.

567
00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:35,600
Speaker 10: Rings true to me.

568
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:40,120
Speaker 9: And I'm sure he found perfectly brilliant young people at

569
00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:45,280
Speaker 9: Fresno State who probably didn't have the preparation from their

570
00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:50,040
Speaker 9: you know, communities and high schools UH to have read

571
00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:52,280
Speaker 9: some of these classic texts before.

572
00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:55,560
Speaker 10: And you know, for some of them it was probably

573
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:57,160
Speaker 10: mind blowing. For others.

574
00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:59,880
Speaker 9: You know, they're there at college just to get ahead, right,

575
00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:03,600
Speaker 9: They've got they've got that, you know, they need to

576
00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:07,920
Speaker 9: get a good job to rise above their station, or

577
00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:14,440
Speaker 9: at least stay there. And the classes at these schools. Look,

578
00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 9: there are a lot of schools. We were at fourteen

579
00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:21,200
Speaker 9: hundred plus colleges and universities. There's a whole bunch at

580
00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:23,760
Speaker 9: the bottom, right, And there are all kinds of colleges

581
00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:27,560
Speaker 9: down there that do very, very poorly. Some of them

582
00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:29,920
Speaker 9: are for profits, some of them are art schools, some

583
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:31,920
Speaker 9: of them are religious schools. A lot of them are

584
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:35,400
Speaker 9: state schools. It's not like this whole class of colleges

585
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:38,640
Speaker 9: is good or bad. But you can find great schools

586
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:45,120
Speaker 9: across the country, and especially in certain states like California,

587
00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:49,960
Speaker 9: like New York, like North Carolina, like Florida, that have

588
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:57,760
Speaker 9: strong centralized systems of governance of their public universities and

589
00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:04,080
Speaker 9: that have long decades old commitments political commitments to keeping

590
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:11,360
Speaker 9: costs down tuition down for in state uh modest and

591
00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:15,160
Speaker 9: low income students. So there's a lot of states where

592
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:17,760
Speaker 9: that just isn't the case and there and if you

593
00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:20,800
Speaker 9: go to college in those at public universities in those states,

594
00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:21,920
Speaker 9: it's more costly.

595
00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:28,160
Speaker 3: Paul, Where do people go to get access to the

596
00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:31,120
Speaker 3: to the list. It's fascinating and everybody will take a

597
00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:33,160
Speaker 3: look at this. And then what is your social media?

598
00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:38,360
Speaker 9: Washington Monthly dot com. People should read it every day.

599
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:43,280
Speaker 9: There's you know, magazine quality writing each and every day

600
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:45,840
Speaker 9: at Washington Monthly dot com. And if you go there,

601
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:48,200
Speaker 9: we have a whole tab under the college Guide and

602
00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 9: you can read not only the rankings our best colleges

603
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:55,479
Speaker 9: for your tuition and tax dollar ranking, which is our

604
00:31:55,520 --> 00:32:00,960
Speaker 9: main one, but other rankings best Hispanic serving instituts, best

605
00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:04,560
Speaker 9: colleges for research and so forth, best bang for the buck,

606
00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:10,360
Speaker 9: and some great feature and investigative work in this new

607
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:14,320
Speaker 9: issue of the Washington Monthly by you know on on

608
00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:18,600
Speaker 9: a variety of topics. I mentioned one about you know,

609
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:22,960
Speaker 9: how certain states like Florida, California run their public SKIT

610
00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:26,720
Speaker 9: university systems. But there's a lot of great journalism there too.

611
00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:31,800
Speaker 9: And my handle on both Twitter and Blue Sky is

612
00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:34,880

00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:08,200
Speaker 3: The things you send me, the articles you're doing over

626
00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:11,120
Speaker 3: just the news literally blow my head up every night.

627
00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:11,640
Speaker 1: I just can't.

628
00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:15,360
Speaker 3: I'm so furious about this entire thing. No, because it's

629
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:19,360
Speaker 3: just so it's so in your grill, right, talk to

630
00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:22,160
Speaker 3: me about the latest Comy revelation.

631
00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:27,000
Speaker 2: Sir, listen to day state the weaponization state. It was

632
00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:30,480
Speaker 2: running rampant and it had no impediments inside the government.

633
00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:33,920
Speaker 2: So right in a period of time, when James Comy's

634
00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:38,280
Speaker 2: FBI is investigating Hillary Clinton's classified email scandal or use

635
00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:40,560
Speaker 2: of an improper use of a private server to move

636
00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:44,560
Speaker 2: classified secrets and do government business, he closed down that investigation.

637
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:47,320
Speaker 2: Now he knows all the liabilities about it because he

638
00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:49,160
Speaker 2: talked about at a press conference. And a few months

639
00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:52,280
Speaker 2: later he's working on a leak machine to go after

640
00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:54,600
Speaker 2: Donald Trump and use the media to dirty up Donald

641
00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:59,000
Speaker 2: Trump and his inner circle are using not making this up,

642
00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:03,400
Speaker 2: private email to facilitate the leak. And the investigators after

643
00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:06,040
Speaker 2: comb he's fired, discover this and they're like, wait a second,

644
00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:07,920
Speaker 2: This chief of staff took a piece of information from

645
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:12,719
Speaker 2: the FBI system, moved it to the private emails so

646
00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:15,879
Speaker 2: he could facilitate an unauthorized leak to the medium. They

647
00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 2: try to investigate it, and they can't get the US

648
00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:22,040
Speaker 2: Attorney's Office under Donald Trump, nonetheless, under Jeff Sessions, under

649
00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:26,160
Speaker 2: Bill Barr, under Rod Rosenstein, they can't even get permission

650
00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:29,799
Speaker 2: to obtain that the records from that email account and

651
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:34,600
Speaker 2: investigate it thoroughly, and like all the other known crimes

652
00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:37,680
Speaker 2: and known abuses in government, it gets shut down without

653
00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:40,399
Speaker 2: a penalty. But of all the people to be having

654
00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:43,400
Speaker 2: people around them using private email to cover great government

655
00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:46,040
Speaker 2: business or to facilitate leaks, James Cobey should have been

656
00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:48,719
Speaker 2: the last. And there he is with his team doing

657
00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:51,240
Speaker 2: the very thing that he was condemning at a podium

658
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:53,680
Speaker 2: a few months earlier when he gave the magic Pass

659
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:56,120
Speaker 2: to Hillary Clinton. So that's the latest revelation.

660
00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:00,360
Speaker 3: Hang on, hang on, hang on, my head's go for

661
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:02,160
Speaker 3: two things. Okay, let's bifocate it.

662
00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:03,439
Speaker 1: Number one.

663
00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:06,319
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, number one, because this was the

664
00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:09,400
Speaker 3: thing over years, and this was this huge thing that

665
00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:11,160
Speaker 3: they're blaking. You know this this if you go back

666
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:14,919
Speaker 3: to sixteen, the summer sixteen. So they had this set

667
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:16,640
Speaker 3: up and then he kind of waved off the end.

668
00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:19,200
Speaker 3: But they knew what she did. There's no doubt in

669
00:35:19,239 --> 00:35:21,879
Speaker 3: your mind. They knew what she did was wrong. Let's

670
00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:24,520
Speaker 3: forget whether she's proseuent. They knew what she did was wrong, right,

671
00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:25,440
Speaker 3: no question about it.

672
00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:27,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, call me said it himself. He said it just

673
00:35:27,840 --> 00:35:28,880
Speaker 2: I'm not going to prosecute it.

674
00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:31,160
Speaker 3: And these and these are the guys, and these are

675
00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:36,360
Speaker 3: guys investigated so shortly thereafter knowing it was wrong, knowing

676
00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:39,000
Speaker 3: they were doing a formal investigation of what was a

677
00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:43,719
Speaker 3: crime or potentially a crime, they then go and they're

678
00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:49,720
Speaker 3: still running the most revered law enforcement institution in the world,

679
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:52,040
Speaker 3: they go and do the exact same thing.

680
00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:53,400
Speaker 1: Is that what you're telling.

681
00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:57,479
Speaker 2: Me, That's what these documents show. These is what Cash

682
00:35:57,520 --> 00:36:01,200
Speaker 2: Matel found and made public and that um Bondi declassified

683
00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 2: and now sitting out there. So it is shocking, and

684
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:06,680
Speaker 2: it also reminds us how much the Jeff Sessions Bill

685
00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:09,600
Speaker 2: bar Justice Department let us down. These are all things

686
00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:12,960
Speaker 2: we could have known before the twenty twenty election, and

687
00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:16,040
Speaker 2: instead they were buried in a drawer. Il Cash Mitel

688
00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:17,320
Speaker 2: and Pam Bondi dug them out.

689
00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:19,360
Speaker 1: Okay, but hang on, hang on.

690
00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:21,640
Speaker 3: That gets my thing, because you talk about the rot

691
00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:24,560
Speaker 3: of the institutions, this is the leadership of the FBI.

692
00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:27,319
Speaker 3: They went, they knew it was wrong, they knew it

693
00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:30,359
Speaker 3: was potentially criminal. There's this whole controversy about while they

694
00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:32,759
Speaker 3: waved off, they then set up the exact same thing.

695
00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:35,200
Speaker 1: This shows you the rot. It's these institutions.

696
00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:39,799
Speaker 3: But even I think almost as bad as then the

697
00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:41,800
Speaker 3: guys that come in that are supposed to be the

698
00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:44,960
Speaker 3: guys that reformed the place, they take a look at

699
00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:46,840
Speaker 3: this information and hang on.

700
00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:48,920
Speaker 1: Not only do they not pursue.

701
00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:51,400
Speaker 3: It, they never ranted up the chain of command so

702
00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:53,719
Speaker 3: anybody would know that was going on. This was all,

703
00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:56,799
Speaker 3: as you said, buried until cash kind of found them

704
00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:59,920
Speaker 3: in the boxes in you know, in the in the

705
00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:03,680
Speaker 3: in the secure closet that nobody's supposed to go into.

706
00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:04,760
Speaker 1: Is that what happened here?

707
00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:07,279
Speaker 3: Not only did they not they review it and not investigate,

708
00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:09,600
Speaker 3: but they never told anybody of the change of commander

709
00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:12,000
Speaker 3: or over the White House of what they had.

710
00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:14,520
Speaker 1: Is that are the part of the story.

711
00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:17,799
Speaker 2: I think it's probably true that Jeff Sessions are a

712
00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:20,719
Speaker 2: Bill Barr or the deputy attorney general or certainly the

713
00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:23,799
Speaker 2: acting deputy attorneys No, Dana Bonte definitely knew, but it

714
00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:25,600
Speaker 2: doesn't ever get to the White House. I talked to

715
00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:27,080
Speaker 2: people in the White House that they were shocked to

716
00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:29,040
Speaker 2: see this story this morning, like, oh my god, you

717
00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:30,879
Speaker 2: got to be kid. You can't make this up. Yeah,

718
00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:33,360
Speaker 2: that's what it is. You bury it. And that culture

719
00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:37,200
Speaker 2: is why Joe Biden felt no danger in using a

720
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:40,200
Speaker 2: private email to do all his pseudonym emails for government business.

721
00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:42,799
Speaker 2: Everybody knew no one would get punished, so they did it.

722
00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:43,920
Speaker 4: They just flaunted the law.

723
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:47,440
Speaker 2: And I wonder how many people in the last four

724
00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:49,920
Speaker 2: years under Biden's second administration we're doing the same thing

725
00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:52,080
Speaker 2: because there's never been a penalty for it, so why

726
00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:52,600
Speaker 2: not do it?

727
00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:57,080
Speaker 1: John, We got a minute or two.

728
00:37:57,120 --> 00:37:59,840
Speaker 3: Can you just walk us through now all this we're

729
00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:04,400
Speaker 3: you know better than anybody directionally. Were these investigations heading

730
00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:06,520
Speaker 3: and kind of the timing of these.

731
00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:09,640
Speaker 2: Things, Yeah, there's a lot of grand jury activity. None

732
00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:11,919
Speaker 2: of it looks like the big case set. It looks

733
00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:15,839
Speaker 2: like early ground gathering of documents on different aspects of it.

734
00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:18,160
Speaker 2: At some point, I think Pam Bondi makes a decision

735
00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:20,600
Speaker 2: to send it to Florida. Two very important things, the

736
00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:23,239
Speaker 2: two big stories we broke last week, the knowledge now

737
00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:26,480
Speaker 2: that James Comy authorized a leak. According to his own lawyer,

738
00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:31,000
Speaker 2: he authorized a classified leak, and according to Adam Schiff's

739
00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:33,800
Speaker 2: own Democratic House Intelligence can be stafford he authorized the

740
00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:36,880
Speaker 2: classified leak. Those two cases have a ten year statute.

741
00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:39,320
Speaker 2: They don't even require a conspiracy case to be made,

742
00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:41,480
Speaker 2: So those are early ones for us to see are

743
00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:43,520
Speaker 2: they going to do it? They just raided John Bolton's

744
00:38:43,560 --> 00:38:47,960
Speaker 2: house outside five years of these alleged defenses. Those also

745
00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:50,640
Speaker 2: are signaling that maybe they're going to do take on

746
00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:53,680
Speaker 2: some of these classified leaks as a beginning strategy why

747
00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:56,880
Speaker 2: they build a larger conspiracy case. I wouldn't be surprised

748
00:38:56,880 --> 00:38:58,960
Speaker 2: if we saw our first charges in the fall. If

749
00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:01,640
Speaker 2: Pam Bondi says we go to Christmas and they're no charges,

750
00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:03,640
Speaker 2: I think all of our skepticism is going to be

751
00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:07,719
Speaker 2: pretty high real quick.

752
00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:11,040
Speaker 3: I'm here it's not the FBI in the investigation part

753
00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:15,400
Speaker 3: that the gating event here is just not enough senior

754
00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:18,680
Speaker 3: proscratorial hands that can get on top of this. That

755
00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:21,480
Speaker 3: the limitation is actually the number of prosecutors we have.

756
00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:23,040
Speaker 3: You hear in the same thing, Yeah.

757
00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:23,960
Speaker 11: I do.

758
00:39:24,120 --> 00:39:25,440
Speaker 2: I think that's a big part of it. They are

759
00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:27,520
Speaker 2: starting to ramp up and be helpful. The Senate did

760
00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:30,000
Speaker 2: his job and got more of them through. But I think, listen,

761
00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:31,960
Speaker 2: Pambondi has to make a decision. Do we do the

762
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 2: grand conspiracy case or not? Are we going to do it?

763
00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:35,799
Speaker 2: And where are we going to do it? And when

764
00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:37,719
Speaker 2: that decision is made, that's when you're going to know

765
00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:40,279
Speaker 2: that rubbers hit the road and I you know, she

766
00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:42,520
Speaker 2: seems to be moving in that direction. And the right

767
00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:44,040
Speaker 2: way to do this is make sure you got all

768
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:46,640
Speaker 2: the evidence and then look at the say that's a conspiracy,

769
00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:49,280
Speaker 2: let's go after it. So it seems like that works underway.

770
00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:51,839
Speaker 2: I think Cash and Pambondi are working well together right now.

771
00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:55,120
Speaker 2: And there's a you know, Cash is turning up unbelievable stuff.

772
00:39:55,480 --> 00:39:58,080
Speaker 2: So it's Tulsa and so the evidence is now there.

773
00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:00,560
Speaker 2: Let's see if the Justice Department is differ this time.

774
00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:05,400
Speaker 2: But we want Pam Bondy not to be Bill Barr.

775
00:40:06,200 --> 00:40:10,640
Speaker 3: Dude, this story this morning is like it's institutionally. I

776
00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:12,200
Speaker 3: don't know if anybody I'm serious, I don't know if

777
00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:14,480
Speaker 3: everybody can change it. So Solomon, you're the best. Where

778
00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:16,359
Speaker 3: do people go for all the breaking news on all

779
00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:18,200
Speaker 3: these investigations you're putting up.

780

850
00:43:38,680 --> 00:43:40,600
Speaker 3: A hard work This is important. This is the important

851
00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:43,719
Speaker 3: thing about Heather. Heather and the team up in Pennsylvania

852
00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:46,200
Speaker 3: that works so hard on this, and last night they're

853
00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:48,640
Speaker 3: just literally blowing their heads are blown up, folks. You

854
00:43:48,680 --> 00:43:51,320
Speaker 3: should know. This is like an All Star team today.

855
00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:54,280
Speaker 3: But every week or every couple of weeks, h Steve

856
00:43:54,320 --> 00:43:57,040
Speaker 3: has the additional ads to the All Star team. All

857
00:43:57,080 --> 00:43:59,839
Speaker 3: over the country. People are working like crazy on this

858
00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:02,799
Speaker 3: and this is what's going to ensure our victory is

859
00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:04,520
Speaker 3: going forward. If you don't have this, are going to

860
00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:06,640
Speaker 3: get back to stealing it. And so a lot of

861
00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:09,399
Speaker 3: these people are behind the scenes. But the stuff going

862
00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:11,319
Speaker 3: on every day, We're going to stream it as we

863
00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:14,719
Speaker 3: always do every couple of weeks when Steve gets this

864
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:18,960
Speaker 3: group together, to make sure you get the access to it.

865
00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:20,759
Speaker 3: But you'll be shocked at how much work's going on

866
00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:22,520
Speaker 3: and how much work's still to be done. That's why

867
00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:25,320
Speaker 3: I think President Trump is now recognizing this at the

868
00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:28,520
Speaker 3: highest level, and I think that she is quite symbolic

869
00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:30,719
Speaker 3: of all the work that people are do on a

870
00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:32,640
Speaker 3: state by state basis. I want to give a special

871
00:44:32,680 --> 00:44:36,600
Speaker 3: hat tip to those folks in Pennsylvania that have just hammered, hammered,

872
00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:40,000
Speaker 3: hammered this because you know, folks in twenty twenty the

873
00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:44,200
Speaker 3: mail in ballots, it was Pennsylvania that tip this entire

874
00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:46,840

00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:31,520
Speaker 3: State Republican GOP.

936
00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:34,600
Speaker 1: Thank you very much, Steve. Start. Okay, the press conferences,

937
00:47:34,760 --> 00:47:35,759
Speaker 1: press conference is going to start.

938
00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:43,480
Speaker 8: Let's go ahead, jump to it, wrapping our arms around

939
00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:46,840
Speaker 8: these families, giving them every ounce that we can muster.

940
00:47:49,680 --> 00:47:54,759
Speaker 8: These were Minneapolis families, these were American families, and the

941
00:47:54,800 --> 00:48:00,120
Speaker 8: amount of pain that they are suffering right now is extraordinary.

942
00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:03,160
Speaker 8: Don't just say this is about thoughts and prayers right now,

943
00:48:03,160 --> 00:48:06,960
Speaker 8: these kids were literally praying. It was the first week

944
00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:12,040
Speaker 8: of school, they were in a church. These are kids

945
00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:16,880
Speaker 8: that should be learning with their friends. They should be

946
00:48:16,920 --> 00:48:20,839
Speaker 8: playing on the playground. They should be able to go

947
00:48:20,920 --> 00:48:24,680
Speaker 8: to school or church in peace without the fear or

948
00:48:24,800 --> 00:48:27,200
Speaker 8: risk of violence, and their parents should have the same

949
00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:31,640
Speaker 8: kind of assurance. These are the sort of basic assurances

950
00:48:31,680 --> 00:48:34,879
Speaker 8: that every family should have every step of the day,

951
00:48:34,960 --> 00:48:43,279
Speaker 8: regardless of where they are in our country. I'm so

952
00:48:43,440 --> 00:48:47,880
Speaker 8: deeply saddened and I'm so sorry to the families that

953
00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:52,279
Speaker 8: I know are suffering right now. My ask is to

954
00:48:52,320 --> 00:49:00,720
Speaker 8: everyone stand by them, love them. These family have forever

955
00:49:00,760 --> 00:49:04,719
Speaker 8: been changed, and we've all been changed with them. We

956
00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:08,040
Speaker 8: need to do everything possible to support them through this time.

957
00:49:09,239 --> 00:49:12,279
Speaker 8: We have a family Resource center that has been set up.

958
00:49:14,680 --> 00:49:18,880
Speaker 8: I'm grateful for all of the law enforcement agencies from

959
00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:23,600
Speaker 8: a number of different jurisdictions, all the different departmental support

960
00:49:23,680 --> 00:49:27,520
Speaker 8: that we've received. They are going to be working tirelessly.

961
00:49:28,600 --> 00:49:32,640

964
00:49:42,920 --> 00:49:47,560
Speaker 8: those that have experienced loss, I'm so deeply sorry. We're

965
00:49:47,600 --> 00:49:49,120
Speaker 8: going to be with you every step of the way.

Speaker 11: We love you.

967
00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:56,040
Speaker 8: This kind of act of evil should never happen, and

968
00:49:56,120 --> 00:50:03,640
Speaker 8: it happens far too often. The chief will provide additional details.

00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:23,280
