As much as I hate them, Stalin Mao, 11 00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:47,920 Speaker 1: they really were tough guys. Stalin spent his youth shooting 12 00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:49,199 Speaker 1: people in robbing banks. 13 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:50,400 Speaker 2: Mao. 14 00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:54,280 Speaker 1: Did you know he taught some of our troops jungle 15 00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:58,440 Speaker 1: warfare in China prior to World War Two. Mao's Junger fighter, 16 00:00:58,520 --> 00:00:59,160 Speaker 1: jungle fighter. 17 00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:03,880 Speaker 2: Tough guy. Our communists are not. They know how to 18 00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:07,160 Speaker 2: talk like one. They're not that tough though. 19 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:09,839 Speaker 1: Do you see the sturdy little commune in Bakersfield, California 20 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 1: threatening the city council. 21 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:14,399 Speaker 3: Hi, there, my name is Ridy Petel. I'm here to 22 00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 3: speak in support of the city council. Introducing a ceasefire resolution, 23 00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 3: specifically the one United Liberation Front has drafted. I don't 24 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:24,960 Speaker 3: have faith that you'll do this. 25 00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:28,040 Speaker 4: You guys are all horrible human beings, and Jesus probably 26 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 4: would have killed you himself. And while you guys parade 27 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:36,000 Speaker 4: Gandhi around as a Hindu holiday called Chaititranavrathri, his starts 28 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:39,440 Speaker 4: off this week. I remind you that these holidays that 29 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 4: we practice, that other people in the global seuth practice, 30 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,199 Speaker 4: believe in violent revolution. 31 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 5: Against their opprestus. 32 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 6: And I hope one day somebody brings the guillotine and 33 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 6: kills all of you. 34 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 5: Mother. 35 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:54,400 Speaker 6: Regardless of whether you elect people into office, they'll backstab you, 36 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 6: they'll let you die. And for that reason, you guys 37 00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 6: want to criminalize us with metal detectors will see you 38 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 6: at your house. 39 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 5: We'll murder you. 40 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 2: That's against the law. 41 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:11,240 Speaker 1: You know, she knows how to talk like maw, but 42 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 1: apparently she didn't know that there come with consequences. 43 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 2: You see, this. 44 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 1: Was her just like twenty four hours later, after the 45 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 1: police tracked her down, threw her in handcuffs and informed 46 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 1: her that she was facing multiple felony charges. You see, 47 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 1: the American communist was not raised in the jungles of 48 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:47,640 Speaker 1: China or the Siberian hinterlands of Russia. The American communist 49 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:52,120 Speaker 1: was born, bred, and nurtured in America's university system. And 50 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:55,800 Speaker 1: therefore the American communist is soft. If we would just 51 00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 1: nudge him, it would fall right over. And places like Florida, 52 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 1: you'd try to block traffic, you get nudged. That's weird 53 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 1: law enforcement getting these rabbage street communists out of the way. 54 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:30,239 Speaker 1: What conditions would allow police to do such things? Joining 55 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 1: me now, my friend Julio Rosas joined his sub stack 56 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 1: is called mostly. 57 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 2: Peaceful, Okay, Julio. 58 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 1: Who were those cops and where did they get this 59 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 1: dangerous authority to get people out of the road. 60 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 2: Yes, kind of an unusual sight seeing these days. 61 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 7: So that was in Miami, in the great state of Florida, 62 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:52,560 Speaker 7: and obviously, with the way that law enforcement is able 63 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 7: to actually do their jobs, it's no surprising that they 64 00:03:55,680 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 7: were the anti Israel pro Hamas pro Alstein protesters were 65 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 7: quickly removed from the streets. I was in New York 66 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 7: City yesterday covering this widespread mobilization that was advertised for 67 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 7: weeks trying to disrupt the economy on tax day so 68 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 7: that our tax dollars don't go to help fund Israel 69 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 7: and all that. So as good as what happened in 70 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 7: Florida was, it was a rarity because in New York 71 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 7: traffic was congested from Manhattan to Brooklyn. We saw O'Hare 72 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 7: Airport in Chicago that that was blocked off for a 73 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 7: couple of for a little bit of time because of 74 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:40,039 Speaker 7: these protesters with the Golden gate Bridge, I mean, and. 75 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:41,599 Speaker 2: That was just the main roadways. 76 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:46,039 Speaker 7: There was other kind of these small, small unit actions 77 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 7: that were being taken all across the country again with 78 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:50,840 Speaker 7: this aim of trying to disrupt the economy. 79 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 1: Okay, who all want to nail down on this aspect 80 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 1: of what we saw yesterday because you just brought it 81 00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:59,279 Speaker 1: up in New York o hair Golden gate Bridge? 82 00:04:59,279 --> 00:04:59,679 Speaker 2: Whatnot? 83 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,159 Speaker 1: The organization? Because it hit me yesterday as I watched 84 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:06,480 Speaker 1: how widespread this was. This is not random. People didn't 85 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 1: wake up and organize on Facebook that day and run 86 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 1: down in New York City's City Hall. 87 00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 2: Who organized this? What? 88 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 1: Why? Who funded it? Who are the groups behind this? 89 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 1: Where did this come from? 90 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 7: So there's a there's a website called a fifteen dot 91 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 7: org and that was kind of this umbrella type organization. 92 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:31,279 Speaker 7: They encouraged basically the local groups in any of the 93 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 7: cities to take autonomous action to try to have this 94 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:37,640 Speaker 7: economic blockade. 95 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:39,600 Speaker 2: And so the people behind a. 96 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 7: Fifteen dot organ is actually a little bit a little 97 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:43,359 Speaker 7: bit shrouded in mystery. 98 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 2: You know, there's no names behind it. 99 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 7: You know, there's no about us a section listening God, 100 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 7: who's in charge of that? 101 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 2: And so they they really. 102 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 7: Just hammered in the point that they wanted all these 103 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 7: groups that in New York City, it was within our 104 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:03,720 Speaker 7: life time, there's all these different there's this thing called 105 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,040 Speaker 7: the Dissenters in Chicago that those were the kind of 106 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 7: the people that were kind of behind the old Hair action. 107 00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 7: It it was just kind of what we what we've 108 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 7: been seeing the past couple of years, where this kind 109 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 7: of loose coalition within the far left that you know, 110 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 7: their tactics might be a little bit different. They might 111 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:25,800 Speaker 7: have not agree entirely on a specific issue, although I 112 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,480 Speaker 7: would say that they're pretty unanimous on how they view 113 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:31,279 Speaker 7: Israel and the war in Gaza. Just to try to, 114 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 7: you know, make things as painful as possible for the 115 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 7: average American to in order to because people have been asking, well, 116 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,120 Speaker 7: why are they doing this? They're going to make people angry. 117 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 7: And I've been saying since day one, since October eighth, 118 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 7: is that these people aren't trying to convince you. They're 119 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:48,040 Speaker 7: just trying to make your life as miserable as possible 120 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 7: so that you just give in to their demands. 121 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:57,479 Speaker 1: Julio, you mentioned these people in the Gaza Israel Palestine thing. 122 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 1: Are these people all Muslim activists?

Are they just far left dirt ball comedies. 124 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:08,920 Speaker 1: I'm asking because are these the same faces you've encountered 125 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 1: at these random protests for as long as you've been 126 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 1: covering them, you were at all the BLM antifa stuff 127 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 1: with the street animals out there? 128 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 2: Are these the same animals. 129 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 7: Depending on location, but generally yes, I mean Dearborn Michigan. 130 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 7: Obviously with the large Muslim population over there that is 131 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 7: going to be mostly religious aspect to it. 132 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 2: But here or over there in New York City. 133 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 7: And Chicago, it's basically kind of the same thing because 134 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 7: it's kind of the same groups that were involved with 135 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 7: kind of allying with BLM back in twenty twenty, and 136 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 7: so that's why it kind of had to take a different, 137 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 7: big event like October seventh to kind of galvanize and 138 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 7: get them motivated to willing to get back out into 139 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 7: the streets again. And New York City has been hit 140 00:07:55,640 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 7: particularly hard by the far left since October seven. I mean, 141 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:04,240 Speaker 7: they have disruptive events basically every week, at least at 142 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 7: least once a week there. You know, it's actually very 143 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 7: rare for them to not have something of some kind, 144 00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 7: and so uh that that's why when there was this 145 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 7: kind of call to action to disrupt, that's why they 146 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 7: went were out of Wall Street right to to just. 147 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 2: Try to figure out a. 148 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 7: Way of how to you know not and look, obviously 149 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:22,680 Speaker 7: I'm not a fan of paying taxes either, but obviously 150 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 7: they're taking it to a little bit of an extreme 151 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 7: and so uh yeah, it's it's kind of the same actors, 152 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 7: kind of the same rhetoric. Uh basically, you know, even 153 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 7: though obviously their their main target Israel, they also hate 154 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 7: the United States. 155 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:37,959 Speaker 2: They hate they hate cops. 156 00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:41,199 Speaker 7: They were always, uh, they're always getting into fights with them. 157 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:45,319 Speaker 7: They're always trying to antagonize people that don't that happened 158 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:47,679 Speaker 7: to be by that don't that don't follow their ideology. 159 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 7: So we'll see how this plays out as the election 160 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 7: heats up and I and we can expect that the 161 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 7: d n C in Chicago later the summer is going 162 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:59,479 Speaker 7: to be pretty pretty eventful. 163 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,080 Speaker 1: Speaking of the cops wrapping this up here, when people 164 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: are on the outside looking in, when I'm not in 165 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 1: San Francisco, I'm not in New York City, they look 166 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:10,200 Speaker 1: and they ask. Many people have the same question, why 167 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:12,840 Speaker 1: aren't the cops doing anything? You know, when you're blocking 168 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,200 Speaker 1: off the Golden Gate Bridge, Why are the cops not 169 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 1: throwing everyone in the back of a paddy wagon when 170 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,680 Speaker 1: you're storming city Hall? Why is everybody not getting a 171 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 1: face full of pepper spray and some handcuffs? What holds 172 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 1: the cops back in these places? 173 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 7: It's because of twenty twenty. 174 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:29,840 Speaker 2: You know. 175 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 7: One of the things back then was defunding the police. 176 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 7: And while that was successful initially, a lot of a 177 00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 7: lot of money has been poured back into these police departments. 178 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 7: But the issue now is just that they're they're undermanned 179 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:46,319 Speaker 7: and they're they're handcuffed by these policies being put forth 180 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 7: by these far left radicals in whatever government, and whether 181 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:55,240 Speaker 7: it's city or state, and so you would think, yes, 182 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 7: you know, if you're going to endanger people and basically 183 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 7: hold them hostage for hours in on a bridge, but 184 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:08,080 Speaker 7: it's there, you know, the cops aren't going to necessarily 185 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 7: kind of have the authority anymore to to take care 186 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,839 Speaker 7: of these people pretty quickly, you know it did I 187 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 7: think it was like something like five hours or you know, 188 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 7: at least it was a couple of hours. And then 189 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 7: of course you know the Seattle too, so it just 190 00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 7: it's very unportunate. And this is kind of the the 191 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 7: continuing effects of the mass lawlessness that we saw in 192 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 7: twenty twenty. So even though the police departments haven't been defunded, 193 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:36,680 Speaker 7: the far left was pretty successful in hamstringing police departments 194 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:38,560 Speaker 7: across the country as we're seeing now. 195 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:43,959 Speaker 1: Sure we're oil, Thank you, brother, appreciate it. As always, 196 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 1: all right, we have so much to get to. There 197 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 1: was something big happening today in the Supreme Court and surprise, surprise, 198 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,840 Speaker 1: Julie Kelly was all over it. We will discuss things 199 00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 1: with her in just a moment before we do that. 200 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:05,280 Speaker 1: Speaking of crime, are you ready? Are you ready to 201 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:08,960 Speaker 1: encounter a Island criminal? They're out there, they're all around us. Look, 202 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 1: you want a little extra motivation right now, go to 203 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:16,199 Speaker 1: your state's sex offender registry and put in your zip code. 204 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 2: Ah, not in my town. Put in your zip code. 205 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 1: Does your wife carry something on her that will allow 206 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:25,680 Speaker 1: her to stop a bad man? Do's your son, that's 207 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 1: your father. That's what the burnup pistol launcher is all about. 208 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:32,160 Speaker 1: This is non lethal, therefore it's legal in all fifty states. 209 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 1: I carry lethal and non lethal. I believe in carrying both. 210 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:37,680 Speaker 1: You don't need a permit, you don't need a background check. 211 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:39,440 Speaker 1: No matter where you live. They will mail it to 212 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 1: your front door. They shoot these pepper balls or tear 213 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:46,840 Speaker 1: gas balls. They'll incapacitate a very bad man forty minutes. 214 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:52,439 Speaker 1: You're gone, free, not in jail, and alive. Go get 215 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 1: a burn up pistol launcher. Swat teams across the country 216 00:11:55,840 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 1: use these things. They're sick. Be why RNA Bernard dot 217 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:04,160 Speaker 1: com slash Jesse own your own self defense? 218 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:15,440 Speaker 8: All right, we'll be back. Well, there was a lot. 219 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:18,600 Speaker 1: Going on today in the legal world and the political world. 220 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:20,720 Speaker 1: It's hard to keep track of all that, and I'm 221 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:22,080 Speaker 1: certainly too stupid to do that. 222 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:22,959 Speaker 2: So that's why I. 223 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: Rely on people like Julie Kelly, who's all over this stuff. 224 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 1: The Supreme Court met today and there was all this 225 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:32,679 Speaker 1: fancy legal mumbo jumbo habeas corpus or whatever. How these 226 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 1: people talk joining me now, Julie Kelly goes subscribe to 227 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 1: her substack called declassified. 228 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 2: Julie. 229 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,559 Speaker 1: What happened today with the ritz and habeas corpus. 230 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 9: And stuff and the men'sraa and the actus raya. I'm 231 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 9: not smart either have been picking up on all these 232 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 9: legal terms. So today was finally long awaited hearing of 233 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 9: the government's abuse DOJ's abuse of fifteen twelve C two 234 00:12:56,840 --> 00:13:00,320 Speaker 9: obstruction of an official proceeding. This was the statue that 235 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:04,079 Speaker 9: was passed in the aftermath of the Enron Arthur Anderson 236 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:09,560 Speaker 9: accounting scandal that the government this DOJ Americ Garland and 237 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 9: Matthew Graves, the DCUs attorney, have weaponized intentionally misinterpreted the 238 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:19,319 Speaker 9: language to instead apply it to political protesters only those 239 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:22,679 Speaker 9: though Jesse who were involved in the events of January sixth. 240 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 9: More than three hundred and fifty defendants have been charged 241 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 9: over the past three years with fifteen twelve C two. 242 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 9: It's a felony punishable by up to twenty years in prison. 243 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 9: Many defendants who have pleaded guilty or been convicted have 244 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:39,079 Speaker 9: been sentenced two years in prison on this non violent 245 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 9: obstruction count. So the Supreme Court finally gave this practice, 246 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:48,720 Speaker 9: this approach a long delayed scrutiny, and a majority of 247 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:53,360 Speaker 9: the justices were extremely skeptical as to how the DOJ 248 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:57,400 Speaker 9: has interpreted it, applied it, and how it's More importantly, 249 00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 9: Jesse would not apply to many of the political protests 250 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:04,440 Speaker 9: that we've seen in recent years, in recent months and 251 00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 9: even ongoing as we speak this week. 252 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 1: Julie, what specifically, which prisoners are going to benefit from this? 253 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:17,680 Speaker 1: And I know this is a really stupid question, but 254 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 1: I'm concerned about all of them. Are all of them 255 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 1: potentially going to get lighter sentences or maybe no sentences 256 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:27,120 Speaker 1: because of this? Is this for one specific guy and 257 00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 1: the rest of them are screwed? 258 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:29,040 Speaker 2: How's this work? 259 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:33,120 Speaker 9: So what's important to note, Jesse is that this felony 260 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 9: count usually becomes the animating charge in determining how long 261 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:41,400 Speaker 9: a defendant will go to prison unless they have attacked 262 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 9: a police officer in addition to this fifteen twelve obstruction count. 263 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 9: But otherwise, if they're charged with obstruction, civil disorder, and 264 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 9: these common misdemeanors, this obstruction count really dictates how long 265 00:14:56,920 --> 00:15:00,120 Speaker 9: an individual will go to prison. And this is that's 266 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 9: what the judges base sentencing prison sentences on. Without this count, 267 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:10,040 Speaker 9: a majority, overwhelming majority who have been charged or convicted 268 00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:13,680 Speaker 9: with fifteen twelve C two would only spend maybe twelve 269 00:15:13,680 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 9: months eight months. 270 00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 5: In prison for misdemeanors. 271 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:19,040 Speaker 9: Even with a civil disorder charge it could go up 272 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 9: to eighteen months. Instead, they're being sentenced to three four 273 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:26,800 Speaker 9: five years in prison on this. Jacob Chancelly, as you know, 274 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 9: the most famous insurrectionist we joke, he was sentenced to 275 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:33,920 Speaker 9: forty one months in prison for pleading guilty to the 276 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:38,200 Speaker 9: substruction count. It has been very destructive. So actually some 277 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:42,200 Speaker 9: judges Jesse are already releasing from prison people who have 278 00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 9: been sent to jail on this fifteen twelve C two count, 279 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:49,520 Speaker 9: predicting or anticipating that the Supreme Court will reverse it. 280 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:53,120 Speaker 9: And in other cases that are pending either plea deals, 281 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 9: can jury trials, or sentencing hearings, they've all been delayed 282 00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:00,840 Speaker 9: until the Supreme Court renders an opinion. And it did 283 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 9: look today that a majority will reverse and overturn how 284 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:08,880 Speaker 9: this DOJ has abused the statute and Jesse this should 285 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:13,600 Speaker 9: result in some repercussions of the DOJ prosecutors at more 286 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:17,840 Speaker 9: than seventeen federal judges in Washington who have signed off 287 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 9: on the abuse of this vague statue to punish Americans 288 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:23,400 Speaker 9: who protested Joe Biden's election. 289 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:24,880 Speaker 5: On January sixth. 290 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:29,400 Speaker 1: Julie, you mentioned the Supreme Court looks like they're leaning 291 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 1: towards overturning it, and that's wonderful. 292 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 2: What were the highlights from today? I wasn't sitting in there. 293 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 1: Did the dirty comedies do something stupid they usually do? 294 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:40,000 Speaker 1: And who on our side was actually decent? 295 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 9: So there was an interesting line of questioning by Sam 296 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 9: Alito and Neil Gorsich and even some from Clarence Thomas 297 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 9: who opened up the questioning of the government side. 298 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,840 Speaker 5: US Solicitor General Elizabeth. 299 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:56,360 Speaker 9: Preligar, who said where they asked where else? And what 300 00:16:56,440 --> 00:17:02,080 Speaker 9: other instances has this statute been applied during political protests 301 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:06,920 Speaker 9: or something that didn't involve tampering with evidence, documents, or witnesses, 302 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:10,960 Speaker 9: which is in the entire fifteen twelve Criminal Code. And 303 00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:14,480 Speaker 9: of course she had no answer to that, And it 304 00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:18,680 Speaker 9: was Justice Alito who brought up some of the recent protests, 305 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 9: including and you'll love this, Jesse, Jamal Bogman's pulling of 306 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 9: the fire alarm that delayed an important congressional vote. He 307 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:31,000 Speaker 9: actually brought that up, and she astonishingly said that those 308 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:33,679 Speaker 9: examples would not rise. 309 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:36,199 Speaker 5: To the level of the j six fifteen twelve C. 310 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:37,640 Speaker 5: Two prosecutions. 311 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:41,199 Speaker 9: She didn't really have a good explanation why, because you 312 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:42,919 Speaker 9: know why, Jesse. She's not going to say, well, this 313 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,359 Speaker 9: isn't going to apply to our side. This isn't going 314 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:49,240 Speaker 9: to apply to Democrats and our protesters. It's only going 315 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:53,920 Speaker 9: to apply to Republicans, conservatives, or Trump supporters. So I 316 00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:57,000 Speaker 9: think that was very illuminating to the justices to see 317 00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 9: how they have weaponized the broad and vague language the 318 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:04,520 Speaker 9: statue to only apply to a certain segment of the 319 00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 9: American people. 320 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:09,720 Speaker 1: Okay, let's move on. There's sadly too much I have 321 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 1: to get to here. What impact does this have on 322 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:16,400 Speaker 1: Trump's January sixth case. He's got a January six case 323 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:18,959 Speaker 1: floating out there with that piece of trash, Jack Smith, 324 00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:20,280 Speaker 1: is this going to affect that? 325 00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:21,919 Speaker 2: It is? 326 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:25,240 Speaker 9: See Jesse your waste murder than you give yourself credit for. 327 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:29,240 Speaker 9: So yes, this count represents two of the four counts 328 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:32,159 Speaker 9: in Jack Smith's criminal indictment against Donald Trump for the 329 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 9: events of January sixth. 330 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 5: So if the Supreme Court. 331 00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:40,040 Speaker 9: Comes back and basically says official proceeding, which is the language, 332 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:44,600 Speaker 9: leads to a judicial proceeding or an investigation, not a 333 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 9: function of Congress, then not only will this exonerate three 334 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:51,240 Speaker 9: hundred and fifty plus J six ers, but also it 335 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 9: would basically end what Jack Smith has accused Donald trumpet 336 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:58,439 Speaker 9: with those two fifteen to two related counts in his 337 00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:00,520 Speaker 9: January sixth criminal indictment. 338 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:03,120 Speaker 5: So will he drop those counts? 339 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:07,400 Speaker 9: Obviously, if the Supreme Court comes back, Donald Trump will 340 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 9: go back and ask for those counts to be dropped 341 00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:13,159 Speaker 9: out of his indictment. What Jack Smith does after that, 342 00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:16,400 Speaker 9: who knows. He could bring a superseding indictment with other counts. 343 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:19,920 Speaker 9: But this does have a big impact not just on this, 344 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:22,879 Speaker 9: but also there's fifteen twelve C two counts in his 345 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:27,200 Speaker 9: classified documents indictment against Donald Trump and two code defendants 346 00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:31,919 Speaker 9: as well, So this will have large reaching repercussions to 347 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:35,560 Speaker 9: both the January sixth Prosecution and Special Council Jacksmith. 348 00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:39,679 Speaker 2: Okay, how does this or does any of this? I 349 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 2: know another dumb question. 350 00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,920 Speaker 1: Does any of this affect his New York trial He's 351 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 1: going through right now. Everyone's covering and everyone's talking about it, 352 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 1: the Alvin Bragg thing. He's not allowed to criticize. He 353 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 1: has to be there every day. Does any of this 354 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:52,119 Speaker 1: affect that? 355 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:57,040 Speaker 9: Not related to what happened in the Supreme Court today, 356 00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 9: but it will impact what's happening in the class by 357 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:04,480 Speaker 9: documents case in Florida because the fact that Donald Trump 358 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:06,880 Speaker 9: will have to be in this courtroom in New York 359 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:10,439 Speaker 9: for six to eight weeks every day. Judge Aileen Cannon 360 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:13,760 Speaker 9: has made it very clear that she will allow and 361 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,919 Speaker 9: she will defend Donald Trump's right as a defendant to 362 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:20,400 Speaker 9: participate in all of the court hearings and to prepare 363 00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:24,399 Speaker 9: his own defense. So this Alvin Bragg eight six to 364 00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:29,720 Speaker 9: eight week charade debacle will impact Jack Smith's classified documents 365 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:33,200 Speaker 9: case in Florida because she has already made clear that 366 00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:37,440 Speaker 9: she will protect Donald Trump's rights to participate in his defense. 367 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:41,120 Speaker 9: And as this continues to move towards a trial date, 368 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:42,879 Speaker 9: which we don't have yet there's still a lot of 369 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:44,240 Speaker 9: pretrial things going on. 370 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:47,440 Speaker 5: This will certainly. 371 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 9: Delay major parts of preparing that case to go to 372 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:52,560 Speaker 9: trials sometime maybe later this summer. 373 00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 1: Okay, truly, just give us the overall point of view 374 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:02,240 Speaker 1: here is Donald Trump. We used to think he was 375 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,399 Speaker 1: going to end up in the slammer before the election. 376 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:07,160 Speaker 1: Now we've caught a whole lot of breaks here between 377 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 1: the Supreme Court, Fanny Willis not being able to keep 378 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 1: her parants on. 379 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:12,400 Speaker 2: We've got a lot of breaks here. 380 00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 1: Do we think that we've caught enough that at least 381 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 1: we're going to avoid. 382 00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 9: That well in terms of what we've talked about in 383 00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:22,680 Speaker 9: Donald Trump going to trial, especially in Washington on the 384 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:26,280 Speaker 9: January sixth case, this will really all hinge on more 385 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:30,680 Speaker 9: oral arguments next Thursday, April twenty fifth, and that will 386 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:34,199 Speaker 9: be the oral arguments in the presidential immunity matter, the 387 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 9: question as to whether Donald Trump or any president is 388 00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:42,160 Speaker 9: immune from criminal prosecution for his conduct in office. Those 389 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 9: will be explosive oral arguments next Thursday, and it really 390 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:49,399 Speaker 9: will dictate what the Supreme Court comes back with. If 391 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:54,240 Speaker 9: they deny Donald Trump's claims of presidential immunity, then the 392 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 9: trial in Washington can restart, and that does pose a 393 00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 9: chance that Donald Trump could be on trial in Washington 394 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 9: before the election, or inconceivably even on election day if 395 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:13,879 Speaker 9: those proceedings restart based on the Supreme Court's decision and 396 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 9: that question. 397 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:21,000 Speaker 1: On election day. Yeah, Julie, thank you, man. I appreciate 398 00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:25,959 Speaker 1: it as always, all right, law fair. You remember that 399 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 1: whole FED napping hoax, Right, Julie's actually talked to us 400 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 1: about that many many times, where the FBI created their 401 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:37,160 Speaker 1: own kidnapping plot. Well, we're going to talk a little 402 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,359 Speaker 1: bit more about that little update. Before we get to that, 403 00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:44,680 Speaker 1: Let's talk about this four point eight percent. At the 404 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 1: end of this year, you will be four point eight 405 00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 1: percent poorer than you were last year. That's what the 406 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:52,199 Speaker 1: inflation numbers look like now. If they stay where they 407 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:55,359 Speaker 1: are year over year, four point eight percent. We're just 408 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 1: watching our value, our standard of living go down and 409 00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:02,720 Speaker 1: down and down, and we feel powerless, but we're not powerless. Yeah, 410 00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:04,399 Speaker 1: you're powerless to save the dollar. 411 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 2: You can't do that. 412 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:08,359 Speaker 1: You're powerless to control the FED and the spending, and 413 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,160 Speaker 1: there's very little that you or I can do about that. 414 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:16,160 Speaker 1: But we can make preparations. Just because the plane happens 415 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:19,320 Speaker 1: to be going down doesn't mean we're out of parachutes. 416 00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:23,119 Speaker 2: Do you have precious metals? You know? 417 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:26,960 Speaker 1: This is a basic, basic preparation everyone should make right. 418 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:30,399 Speaker 1: And that's what Oxford Gold Group is about. It's for 419 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:34,159 Speaker 1: normal people to make basic preparations. You don't have to 420 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:37,720 Speaker 1: go crazy. Don't go crazy. Let Oxford get some gold 421 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 1: or silver coins in your hands. Let them get it 422 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 1: in your retirement, your IRA, your four oh one k. 423 00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 1: Let them get you ready for whatever it is that's coming. 424 00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:51,640 Speaker 1: But it is coming, call tell them. I tweety to call. 425 00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:52,480 Speaker 1: They'll take care of you. 426 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:56,400 Speaker 2: Eight three three nine gold. We'll be back. 427 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:09,040 Speaker 10: Earlier today, Attorney General Dana Nessel was joined by officials 428 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:12,600 Speaker 10: from the Department of Justice and the FBI to announce 429 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:17,120 Speaker 10: state and federal charges against thirteen members of two militia 430 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 10: groups were preparing to kidnap and possibly kill me. 431 00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,680 Speaker 11: It was just literally a bunch of working class guys 432 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 11: who on the weekend got together and exercised their rights 433 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 11: and trained with firearms. 434 00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:36,760 Speaker 12: So the FBI says, hey, we'll just pay for everything. 435 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:38,200 Speaker 13: But who arranged the meeting? 436 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 8: The fbis paid for vokets work. 437 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,200 Speaker 13: Robison was getting paid to set this stuff up. 438 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 11: So they make the route, they set the locations, they 439 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 11: make the plan, they do everything, and Adam's literally just 440 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 11: sitting in the basement of the vacuum repair shops smoking. 441 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:57,919 Speaker 12: Blonds all day. The whole goal was for the FBI 442 00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:02,920 Speaker 12: to spend millions of dollars to militia groups, record them 443 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:11,439 Speaker 12: saying offensive stuff, and then frame them in a fake conspiracy. 444 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,199 Speaker 1: I'm excited for this. We've been talking about this story 445 00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 1: for a while. It is eye popping and it's amazing 446 00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:26,679 Speaker 1: how many Americans don't know about it. 447 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 2: Joining me now. 448 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 1: The lady responsible for that incredible film which you should 449 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:34,840 Speaker 1: go watch, Christina Urso. She is the director and producer 450 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:36,119 Speaker 1: of Kidnap and Kill. 451 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:37,680 Speaker 2: She's also a journalist. 452 00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:40,480 Speaker 1: Okay, Christina, for those maybe it's their first night tuning 453 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 1: into I'm right, maybe they haven't seen your. 454 00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 2: Wonderful film yet. 455 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:46,840 Speaker 1: Why don't you give us a little background on this 456 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,399 Speaker 1: kidnapping plot. I remember it like it was yesterday. I 457 00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:50,200 Speaker 1: woke up one day. 458 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:52,040 Speaker 2: It's an election. Yeer, look at my phone. 459 00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:55,360 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, they were gonna kidnap and kill Gretchen Wimber, 460 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:56,120 Speaker 1: that's crazy. 461 00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:57,440 Speaker 2: What was the real story? 462 00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:02,440 Speaker 14: Well, the official story, right was in October of twenty twenty, 463 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:06,040 Speaker 14: a group of fourteen men were arrested and six were 464 00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:09,560 Speaker 14: charged federally with conspiracy to kidnap. Eight were hit with 465 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:13,399 Speaker 14: state charges of providing material support. They said that these 466 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:16,640 Speaker 14: men were part of two different militia groups that were 467 00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:21,760 Speaker 14: planning to kidnap Whitmer, like take her from her vacation cottage, 468 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:26,360 Speaker 14: maybe do something to her security detail, take her over 469 00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:29,879 Speaker 14: the lake, and put her on trial in Wisconsin. That 470 00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:33,360 Speaker 14: was the official story. And then as this case went 471 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 14: to trial and discovery started to come out, the true 472 00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 14: story was very different. And I can go into that 473 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:43,080 Speaker 14: as far as how this whole thing comes together, because 474 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 14: it doesn't come together without the FBI being involved every 475 00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:48,040 Speaker 14: step of the way. 476 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:53,159 Speaker 1: Yes, I would prefer you go into that, take as 477 00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 1: much time as you need. I want the American people 478 00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:58,159 Speaker 1: to know what exactly is going on with their secret 479 00:26:58,160 --> 00:26:59,200 Speaker 1: state police agency. 480 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:03,119 Speaker 14: Right. So going back to the timeframe, I mean, people 481 00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:05,680 Speaker 14: need to remember what was going on in twenty twenty. 482 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:09,400 Speaker 14: We had the pandemic, and we had a bunch of lockdowns. 483 00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:13,640 Speaker 14: Michigan had the harshest lockdowns. So this is the backdrop, right, 484 00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:18,200 Speaker 14: there's also the Summer of Love. We're having mostly peaceful protests, 485 00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:21,160 Speaker 14: and you have a bunch of guys who are sitting around. 486 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,640 Speaker 14: They can't really work, so they've got nothing really to do. 487 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 14: And the FBI had certain people they were monitoring online 488 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:35,000 Speaker 14: and they essentially brought these individuals together. They infiltrated a 489 00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:40,000 Speaker 14: group called the Wolverine Watchmen. This was not initially a 490 00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:42,520 Speaker 14: militia group. It was more of like a prepper group 491 00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:45,720 Speaker 14: that was kind of mostly online. Right. It was created 492 00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:50,159 Speaker 14: online in November of twenty nineteen. By March of twenty twenty, 493 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:54,399 Speaker 14: the FBI has not only infiltrated the group, but their informant, 494 00:27:54,600 --> 00:28:00,080 Speaker 14: Dan Chappel, becomes the leader effectively of this group. And 495 00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:03,800 Speaker 14: then other various people that the FBI had been monitoring 496 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:07,720 Speaker 14: and kind of targeting. They then come together. Because the 497 00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:12,159 Speaker 14: FBI calls meetings for these militia groups and then pays 498 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:16,240 Speaker 14: for the meetings. They arranged ftx's, which is called a 499 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:19,600 Speaker 14: field training exercise. This is things that militia groups do. 500 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:23,680 Speaker 14: They do defensive firearms training, they do medical training, things 501 00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:27,680 Speaker 14: of this nature, and so throughout the course of twenty twenty. 502 00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:31,879 Speaker 14: Throughout the summer, the FBI is creating these events, paying 503 00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:35,679 Speaker 14: for them, and using a network of twelve informants, and 504 00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:39,720 Speaker 14: then later on they introduced two to three undercover agents 505 00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:43,520 Speaker 14: to bring this group together and to try to get 506 00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 14: something off the ground. Basically, but there was never really 507 00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 14: a plot. You had the FBI's informants getting people intoxicated 508 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 14: and then recording them saying offensive things, and then those 509 00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 14: little clips were played in court out of con text 510 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:03,800 Speaker 14: to kind of create the appearance of a conspiracy where 511 00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:05,080 Speaker 14: really none existed. 512 00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 1: You speak to a bunch of people in this documentary 513 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:12,800 Speaker 1: and gosh, I have so many things I want to 514 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:16,239 Speaker 1: ask you, Well, what what made your jaw drop? I 515 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 1: know you already knew the story before you started, but 516 00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:21,240 Speaker 1: you always learn more as you dig into these things. 517 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:23,320 Speaker 1: What did someone say to you that made you go, 518 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:24,480 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, what? 519 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 2: Well? 520 00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:29,000 Speaker 14: Okay, So I had actually covered the case from the 521 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:32,200 Speaker 14: time the arrests began in October of twenty twenty. I 522 00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:34,920 Speaker 14: knew right away with the way the media covered this 523 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:38,640 Speaker 14: that the true story is probably something different. And then 524 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:42,480 Speaker 14: it wasn't until actually after the first trial, so to 525 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:45,520 Speaker 14: kind of back this up. There were four trials in total. 526 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:50,080 Speaker 14: The first federal trial resulted in zero convictions for the 527 00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:54,480 Speaker 14: government and two acquittals. It was when I spoke to Brandon. 528 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:57,240 Speaker 14: I interviewed him after he was acquitted, and it wasn't 529 00:29:57,320 --> 00:29:59,480 Speaker 14: until I talked to him that I realized there's so 530 00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:02,840 Speaker 14: much about this story that people just don't know. Even 531 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:05,320 Speaker 14: if you were following along, even if you were listening 532 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:08,960 Speaker 14: in to the public access line and following the trial, 533 00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:11,760 Speaker 14: that you wouldn't know about. So it wasn't until I 534 00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:16,520 Speaker 14: began doing the documentary that I realized that there's so 535 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 14: much here, and there's you know, honestly, this case, I 536 00:30:20,040 --> 00:30:23,120 Speaker 14: think is a microcosm for all of the things that 537 00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:26,160 Speaker 14: we're seeing going wrong in America. Right We've got the 538 00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:29,480 Speaker 14: Weaponization Committee. I'm not sure why they haven't looked into 539 00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:32,960 Speaker 14: this case. There isn't really a greater example of weaponization 540 00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:36,240 Speaker 14: than the Whitmer case, in my opinion. It also there 541 00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:39,120 Speaker 14: was certain events that happened during the course of the 542 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:42,640 Speaker 14: investigation where there's sort of like a January sixth connection, 543 00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:44,960 Speaker 14: for example, where I feel like the Whitmer case was 544 00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:48,200 Speaker 14: sort of a dry run for what happened later on, 545 00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:50,560 Speaker 14: and I can explain. 546 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:53,160 Speaker 1: That if you like, yes, please, I would like you 547 00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:54,320 Speaker 1: to what happened later on. 548 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:58,760 Speaker 14: Yeah. So, throughout the course of the investigation, while the 549 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:02,560 Speaker 14: FBI is these people together, right during the summer of 550 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:06,280 Speaker 14: twenty twenty, there are anti lockdown rallies occurring in Michigan. 551 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:09,720 Speaker 14: There's one that happens in April of twenty twenty at 552 00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:14,080 Speaker 14: the Lancing Capitol and the FBI has their informant who's 553 00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:17,200 Speaker 14: now the leader of the Wolverine Watchman group. He's got 554 00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:19,400 Speaker 14: a couple of the members of the Watchmen with him. 555 00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:22,520 Speaker 14: They're attending this anti lockdown pro to a group. They're 556 00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:25,479 Speaker 14: in their full kit with their firearms, and the FBI, 557 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:29,680 Speaker 14: by the way, is monitoring the entire thing as this 558 00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:32,720 Speaker 14: is happening, and their informant says on a wire like, oh, 559 00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:36,200 Speaker 14: I think these guys might be getting ready to do something. Well, 560 00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 14: the FBI tells the Lancing Capitol police to stand down, 561 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:44,040 Speaker 14: open the doors and let everybody in. So they wanted 562 00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:47,600 Speaker 14: them to go into the capitol armed, right, Well, the 563 00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:51,160 Speaker 14: guys stood in line, they went through COVID screening, they 564 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:54,320 Speaker 14: go in and then the media runs with these pictures 565 00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:57,400 Speaker 14: of the watchmen inside the capitol and running with the 566 00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 14: story of right wing militias storm the capital. They you know, 567 00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:04,360 Speaker 14: they were saying that they were looking for lawmakers and 568 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:08,640 Speaker 14: things like this. But the handling agent in Detroit at 569 00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:11,360 Speaker 14: the time, the Special Agent in charge of the Detroit 570 00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:14,840 Speaker 14: Field Office, was a man named Stephen Dan Tuono, and 571 00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:18,680 Speaker 14: he's overseeing this whole thing. This is a storming of 572 00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:22,760 Speaker 14: the capitol, you know, prior to January sixth, and one 573 00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:26,520 Speaker 14: week after these men get arrested. October seventh of twenty twenty, 574 00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:30,320 Speaker 14: he's promoted by Christopher Ray from the head of the 575 00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:34,040 Speaker 14: Detroit Field Office to be the assistant director of the Washington, 576 00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:37,840 Speaker 14: d C. Field Office. So there he is overseeing another 577 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:39,560 Speaker 14: storming of the capitol. 578 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:45,960 Speaker 1: How about that, Christina, This doesn't feel like. 579 00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 2: A one off to me. 580 00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 1: This feels like how the FBI does business. Maybe they've 581 00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:52,560 Speaker 1: done it this way in the past and we didn't know. 582 00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:55,960 Speaker 1: Maybe they intend to do this again in the future. 583 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:57,960 Speaker 1: Do you get the feeling they intend to do this 584 00:32:58,080 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 1: again in the future. 585 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:00,480 Speaker 2: Maybe they're doing it as we speak. 586 00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:04,560 Speaker 14: Yes, I think that they have a history of doing this. Right, 587 00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:07,120 Speaker 14: you can go back and look at co intel Pro. 588 00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 14: You can look at pat Con for a more recent example. 589 00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:15,120 Speaker 14: But in my investigation of the Whitmer case, it appears 590 00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:19,239 Speaker 14: that the Whitmer investigation actually has its origins and an 591 00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:23,000 Speaker 14: earlier FBI operation that seemed to be going on in 592 00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:26,520 Speaker 14: twenty eighteen where the FBI was trying to infiltrate different 593 00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:31,040 Speaker 14: militia groups. Now in the Whitmer case, the FBI also 594 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:35,040 Speaker 14: is creating fake militia groups. This was something that for 595 00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:38,360 Speaker 14: people who aren't aware, one of their informants was posing 596 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:41,400 Speaker 14: as a head of a national of a militia group 597 00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:45,040 Speaker 14: and he was posing as a national commander. The FBI 598 00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:48,959 Speaker 14: claimed that there was this nationwide meetup of militia groups 599 00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 14: in June of twenty twenty where they claimed the origins 600 00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:57,000 Speaker 14: of the kidnapping plot began. Well, what they didn't say 601 00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 14: is that the FBI called and shared that meeting through 602 00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:04,520 Speaker 14: their informant, who is also a convicted child sex offender. 603 00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:07,320 Speaker 14: He calls and chairs the meeting, and the meeting is 604 00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:11,240 Speaker 14: all for targets that people that the FBI is targeting 605 00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:14,719 Speaker 14: to bring those people together, and then there's numerous informants 606 00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 14: there that are recording everything that is being said, and 607 00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:21,680 Speaker 14: they're trying to instigate. They're trying to get people to 608 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:24,839 Speaker 14: talk about things. They're you know, saying like they're in 609 00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:27,719 Speaker 14: your backyard. You got to give them no quarter. They're 610 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:30,680 Speaker 14: talking about you can't just take brick and mortar. Like, 611 00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:35,360 Speaker 14: their informants are repeatedly suggesting things, and then other people 612 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:38,320 Speaker 14: are not going along with their suggestions. So the FBI 613 00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:42,880 Speaker 14: is creating their own militia groups. Some of the things 614 00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:45,560 Speaker 14: in this case, like one of the informants was posing 615 00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:48,279 Speaker 14: as the head of the Tennessee Chapter for again, a 616 00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:51,719 Speaker 14: fake group that doesn't exist outside of the FBI's fabrication. 617 00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:55,480 Speaker 14: The main target of their investigation was a vulnerable man 618 00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:58,879 Speaker 14: named Adam Fox. He at the time was homeless. He's 619 00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:01,920 Speaker 14: living in the basement of a vacuum repair shop at 620 00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:07,120 Speaker 14: a place called the Vakshack. And they set upon him 621 00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:11,640 Speaker 14: and they've got numerous informants suggesting things to him and 622 00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:16,359 Speaker 14: trying to essentially get him to become a leader. Well, 623 00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:18,839 Speaker 14: he's not a leader of anything. He's not really part 624 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:21,279 Speaker 14: of any militia group. He wasn't a member of the 625 00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:25,360 Speaker 14: Wolverine Watchman. The FBI made him a member and then 626 00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:29,600 Speaker 14: they created a fake chapter for their fake militia group. 627 00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:31,720 Speaker 14: They told Adam he was the head of the Michigan 628 00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:37,319 Speaker 14: chapter of the Patriot three Percenters, and then Adam inducts 629 00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:41,320 Speaker 14: the informant, Dan Chappel, the other informant, as the commanding 630 00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:44,080 Speaker 14: officer again of this fake militia group. And then the 631 00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:47,319 Speaker 14: FBI is saying, well, you know he created he was 632 00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:49,640 Speaker 14: the leader of this militia group, and it's like it 633 00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:53,839 Speaker 14: doesn't exist though outside of your fabrication, you have an 634 00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:57,600 Speaker 14: informant posing as a national commander. Your other informants are 635 00:35:57,640 --> 00:36:01,240 Speaker 14: posing as different heads of different states chapters of various 636 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:04,480 Speaker 14: militia groups. I mean, they created a Facebook page for 637 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:07,759 Speaker 14: this Michigan chapter of a fake militia group. That was 638 00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:11,719 Speaker 14: the FBI who was creating and administering it. They use 639 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:15,960 Speaker 14: what they call online covert employees or ocees that are 640 00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:19,520 Speaker 14: running fake identities online to try to get people into 641 00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:22,640 Speaker 14: these groups and then funnel them into events like this 642 00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:25,440 Speaker 14: where the FBI can try to find a reason to 643 00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:28,919 Speaker 14: manufacture something to get something off the ground. They try 644 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:32,840 Speaker 14: to target people who are more vulnerable, who might be 645 00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:35,960 Speaker 14: more suggestible that will go along with things that the 646 00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:38,719 Speaker 14: FBI is suggesting. So, yes, they have a history of 647 00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:42,040 Speaker 14: doing this, and they've not been held accountable for any 648 00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:44,359 Speaker 14: of the things that happened in this case, so there's 649 00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:47,400 Speaker 14: no reason to believe they wouldn't still be doing these things. 650 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:50,759 Speaker 14: They've got every reason to do so, and I think 651 00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:53,200 Speaker 14: that they get paid for these things. They have financial 652 00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:57,200 Speaker 14: incentives to keep manufacturing things that they can then foil 653 00:36:57,320 --> 00:36:58,800 Speaker 14: and congratulate themselves for. 654 00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:03,160 Speaker 1: They always find the morons and take advantage of them. 655 00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:06,160 Speaker 1: All right, Christina, really quickly, where can people watch your documentary? 656 00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:12,360 Speaker 14: The website is kkfilm dot com.

Here 714 00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:13,640 Speaker 13: we have a situation where even at the highest level 715 00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:17,120 Speaker 13: of the FAA. This is someone who is nominated to 716 00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:20,520 Speaker 13: take charge my firm. Amount SAT's Legal Foundation has a 717 00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:23,680 Speaker 13: lawsuit related to air traffic controllers, which is a separate 718 00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:27,200 Speaker 13: hiring process, obviously, and in that process, they had a 719 00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:30,040 Speaker 13: pre employment test, and they looked at the results of 720 00:40:30,040 --> 00:40:32,799 Speaker 13: the pre employment test and decided that too many white 721 00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:35,440 Speaker 13: people p's the test, and so they would flush that 722 00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:38,800 Speaker 13: test and adopt a new one that would jerry mander 723 00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:41,680 Speaker 13: the racial pool and create I guess, a more favorable 724 00:40:42,120 --> 00:40:44,000 Speaker 13: racial balance for. 725 00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:44,680 Speaker 2: The White House. 726 00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:48,240 Speaker 13: And in our case, we represent over nine hundred would 727 00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:52,799 Speaker 13: be air traffic controllers who lost their schooling opportunities, they 728 00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:56,919 Speaker 13: lost their career opportunities because they couldn't pass the new test, 729 00:40:56,960 --> 00:40:58,520 Speaker 13: over nine hundred of them. Some of them passed with 730 00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:01,239 Speaker 13: one hundred percent the initial go around, and then they 731 00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:04,600 Speaker 13: couldn't pass the new test that was adopted by the FAA. 732 00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:05,440 Speaker 2: So we are. 733 00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:09,160 Speaker 13: Suing over race discrimination, and we're looking forward to prevailing 734 00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:10,800 Speaker 13: and making it so that this can't happen again. 735 00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:14,120 Speaker 2: I'm looking forward to prevailing as well. 736 00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:17,080 Speaker 1: Exactly how long has this kind of insanity gone on, 737 00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:20,600 Speaker 1: at least to your discovery so far in the airline industry. 738 00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:23,919 Speaker 1: Is this something that happened or started six months ago? 739 00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:25,320 Speaker 1: Has it been years in the making. 740 00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:29,000 Speaker 13: It's been going on a while, probably a decade at 741 00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:32,759 Speaker 13: this point. Under the Obama administration, these were the sorts 742 00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:36,000 Speaker 13: of initiatives they were adopting in order to get at 743 00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:40,080 Speaker 13: quote unquote diversity within the air traffic controller hiring pool. 744 00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:42,040 Speaker 13: But just the last year or two, I think we've 745 00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:45,640 Speaker 13: all seen this dei effort ramp up. We've seen airlines 746 00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:48,280 Speaker 13: announce that they're going to make sure that fifty percent 747 00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:49,400 Speaker 13: of pilots are women. 748 00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:51,440 Speaker 2: We've seen videos. 749 00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:55,520 Speaker 13: Online of all non white staff on airplanes saying, look 750 00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:58,080 Speaker 13: how diverse we are. And then, of course we've just 751 00:41:58,120 --> 00:42:03,040 Speaker 13: got a number of incidents lately that involve disasters on airplanes, 752 00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:06,640 Speaker 13: like the Alaska Airlines flight, that indicate that merit is 753 00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:08,840 Speaker 13: not at the top of the list, and that instead 754 00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:12,200 Speaker 13: people are obsessed with race, they're obsessed with gender things 755 00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:16,040 Speaker 13: that ought not matter. I certainly couldn't care less about 756 00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:18,800 Speaker 13: the race or gender of the pilot and the cockpit 757 00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:20,840 Speaker 13: or the air traffic control on the ground when I 758 00:42:20,880 --> 00:42:23,240 Speaker 13: go from point A to point B. But that really 759 00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:26,680 Speaker 13: is something that people and the White House obsessed about. 760 00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:29,480 Speaker 13: They constantly think, how are we going to make this 761 00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:34,400 Speaker 13: pool of employees better reflect the exact racial demographics of 762 00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:36,960 Speaker 13: the country, when that qualification has nothing to do with 763 00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:40,560 Speaker 13: your skill, merit competence, experience, and so it's actually creating 764 00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:43,880 Speaker 13: a situation where we're recording danger. You know, I certainly 765 00:42:44,239 --> 00:42:46,319 Speaker 13: still fly, but I'm worried in the long run that 766 00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:51,160 Speaker 13: this will actually really result in a disaster and tragedy. 767 00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:55,040 Speaker 1: William, will you explain have you found anything in the 768 00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:59,320 Speaker 1: course of all your discovery, any pushback from people within 769 00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:02,839 Speaker 1: the White House, maybe people within the FAA itself, because 770 00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:04,839 Speaker 1: this is one of those issues. I mean, look, all 771 00:43:04,960 --> 00:43:09,160 Speaker 1: race based hiring is stupid and wrong, and we acknowledge that, 772 00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:12,080 Speaker 1: but when it comes to things like flying, we're talking 773 00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:16,400 Speaker 1: about lives, hundreds thousands of lives on the line here. 774 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:19,279 Speaker 1: No one has stepped up and said, uh, maybe we 775 00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:20,680 Speaker 1: should keep it merit based. 776 00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:24,600 Speaker 13: Yeah, you don't say, like, this is a pretty important field, right. 777 00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:24,920 Speaker 2: You know. 778 00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:28,360 Speaker 13: It's one thing to tinker and socially engineer the workforce 779 00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:31,800 Speaker 13: in an HR department on the ground. It's quite another 780 00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:33,560 Speaker 13: thing to put all of our lives at risk by 781 00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:36,719 Speaker 13: hiring people who aren't the most qualified. Now, if you 782 00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:39,760 Speaker 13: ask the Biden White House what's your defense, they'll say, well, 783 00:43:39,800 --> 00:43:43,680 Speaker 13: the old tests really disadvantaged racial minorities. 784 00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:46,719 Speaker 2: It had an impediment barrier, and all we were. 785 00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:49,000 Speaker 13: Doing was getting rid of that barrier by adopting a 786 00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:52,480 Speaker 13: new test called the biographical assessment. But if there's one 787 00:43:52,560 --> 00:43:54,680 Speaker 13: thing that I couldn't care less about, it's the biography 788 00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:57,600 Speaker 13: of the air traffic controller. I mean just the title 789 00:43:57,640 --> 00:44:01,600 Speaker 13: of the test itself, biographical assessment is because it relates 790 00:44:01,640 --> 00:44:06,640 Speaker 13: more to your story, your narrative, your background than the 791 00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:09,400 Speaker 13: actual important thing if you're become, if you're going to 792 00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:11,520 Speaker 13: become an air to have controller, which is your merit, 793 00:44:11,560 --> 00:44:14,879 Speaker 13: your skill, your confidence, your experience. And none of those 794 00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:17,000 Speaker 13: things were at the top of the list for the FAA, 795 00:44:17,360 --> 00:44:19,440 Speaker 13: and even today we don't think that they are. 796 00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:25,960 Speaker 1: You're also going to bat for farmers in a different case, 797 00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:28,959 Speaker 1: You're going to bat for farmers. What exactly is going 798 00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:31,440 Speaker 1: on there? What did the Biden White House try to do? 799 00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:35,799 Speaker 13: So in contrast to the FAA case which started under 800 00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:39,360 Speaker 13: the Obama administration, and where we have to pour over 801 00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:42,160 Speaker 13: you know, hundreds of thousands of documents and interview witnesses. 802 00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:46,920 Speaker 13: Biden Whitehouse had no such embarrassment about just enacting a 803 00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:52,719 Speaker 13: program with facial racial preferences for disaster relief. So we 804 00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:58,439 Speaker 13: represent farmers in Texas who suffered natural disasters and were 805 00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:03,520 Speaker 13: entitled to various federal benefits under COVID nineteen relief programs, 806 00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:06,800 Speaker 13: but the amount of relief that they got was less 807 00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:11,719 Speaker 13: because they were not a racial minority or in most 808 00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:16,280 Speaker 13: cases not women. So the Biden administration enacted farm relief plans, 809 00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:19,640 Speaker 13: and then its own USDA officials decided that they would 810 00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:22,960 Speaker 13: dole out that relief based on race and sex. And 811 00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:25,960 Speaker 13: here it wasn't even as though Congress asked them to 812 00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:29,440 Speaker 13: do that. USDA just unilaterally decided that's the best way 813 00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:32,080 Speaker 13: to dole out farm aide. And so we're suing under 814 00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:35,840 Speaker 13: the equal Protection Clause. And we just filed very recently 815 00:45:35,840 --> 00:45:38,040 Speaker 13: in motion for a preliminary injunction which would halt the 816 00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:39,960 Speaker 13: program even before it's finished. 817 00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:42,000 Speaker 2: And we like our chances. 818 00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:45,360 Speaker 1: I like your chances, and that one too.
