1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:03,159
Speaker 1: All right, buckle up, glad you're with us. Happy Monday,

2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:05,640
Speaker 1: and right down on toll free telephone number. You want

3
00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:08,920
Speaker 1: to be a part of this extravaganza, it's eight hundred

4
00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:12,080
Speaker 1: and nine four one sean if you want to join us.

5
00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:16,200
Speaker 1: You know, you watch the deep state, You watch the

6
00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:20,160
Speaker 1: people that have lied for over two years. You just

7
00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:22,360
Speaker 1: watch them, You just listen to them, You just do

8
00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:28,480
Speaker 1: the anticipation for what they think is massive, and you

9
00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:31,880
Speaker 1: just begin to figure out that they don't have a thing.

10
00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:38,239
Speaker 1: And I am predicting that. The only thing that I

11
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 1: am somewhat concerned about is Mueller changes his mind all

12
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:45,680
Speaker 1: the time. Now, based on what Robert Mueller has said,

13
00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:50,400
Speaker 1: he's going to stick to his report stand on the

14
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:53,560
Speaker 1: nature of the report he originally said as to part

15
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,440
Speaker 1: to the obstruction. First of all, you know, he went

16
00:00:56,520 --> 00:01:02,000
Speaker 1: through great, great detail over how hard it is. You know,

17
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:05,760
Speaker 1: you just can't say somebody obstructive when there's no underlying crime.

18
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:10,880
Speaker 1: He was never denied anything. The White House publicly encouraged

19
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:15,920
Speaker 1: everybody to testify with all congressional investigations and with the

20
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:20,759
Speaker 1: Special Council investigation, and then of course the White House

21
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 1: handed over one and a half million documents and the

22
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,880
Speaker 1: president himself answered questions, and it went on for two

23
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 1: and a half plus years, and you would think that

24
00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 1: maybe at some point that we start getting to what

25
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,240
Speaker 1: the real crimes are here and all of the other

26
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:38,559
Speaker 1: important issues that they have purposely avoided. But at times

27
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 1: you get frustrated. But I think that's all about to

28
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 1: change this week. And I don't really care what any

29
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 1: of these people like Adam Schiff have to say, or

30
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 1: people like Jerry Nadler, because I don't think I think

31
00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 1: this is once again wishful thinking on their part. I mean,

32
00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:57,680
Speaker 1: if you go back over the Muller report itself, what

33
00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 1: did it say? And this is the fourth investigation complete.

34
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 1: Now they want investigations five, six, seven, eight, nine, and ten.

35
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 1: But the FBI said, and you can quote Peter Struck

36
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:14,520
Speaker 1: of all people who hates Donald Trump, who thinks that

37
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,639
Speaker 1: Hillary should win one hundred million to zero, that had

38
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:22,440
Speaker 1: the insurance policy in place, and the guy that wrote

39
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 1: the exoneration for Hillary before the investigation, the guy that

40
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 1: was a part of the sham interrogation of Hillary where

41
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 1: they actually allowed other people to be in the interrogation

42
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:38,240
Speaker 1: room at the time, and all of this special treatment

43
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,680
Speaker 1: they gave Hillary anyway, And and of course his you

44
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:47,200
Speaker 1: know the comments about Smellie Walmart Trump supporters. So this

45
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,160
Speaker 1: is a guy that also said and people forget, Yeah,

46
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:54,079
Speaker 1: there's no there there. And Lisa Page in closed door

47
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:58,120
Speaker 1: testimony when asked about well, the FBI nine month investigation

48
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 1: before the appointment of Muller into any collusion, a conspiracy

49
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:07,360
Speaker 1: with Russia, well had to say, no, we had nothing.

50
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:11,359
Speaker 1: Those were her words. Then the House Intelligence Committee they

51
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,640
Speaker 1: had nothing, and you would think, well, maybe that would

52
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,800
Speaker 1: put it into this No, then Bipartisan Senate committee nothing.

53
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:20,520
Speaker 1: Let's go back to the Muller report. What are the

54
00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:24,440
Speaker 1: words in the Muller report that the investigation, meaning the

55
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 1: Muller investigation, this is their words, did not establish the

56
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 1: Trump campaign coordinated with the Russian government in Russia's in

57
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 1: its election interference activities. So what part of that is,

58
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 1: you know, let's look at this here. What part of

59
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 1: that don't people understand? Now we all know because we've

60
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 1: interviewed many constitutional experts and attorneys on this program. And

61
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:57,840
Speaker 1: the president under Article two powers also had the ability

62
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 1: to fire Muller any time that he wanted to fire Amoute.

63
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 1: He didn't do it. Now, did the President complain? Yes?

64
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 1: Did the President call it a witch hunt? Often? Was it,

65
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 1: in the end proven to be true? No, it was

66
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:16,479
Speaker 1: President was screaming about his innocence. Turned out he was innocent,

67
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,359
Speaker 1: was frustrated at the amount of time that he and

68
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 1: his team had to spend dealing with this, these trumped

69
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 1: up charges. And I think, like a lot of us,

70
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 1: have a lot of questions for Muller about the so

71
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:35,000
Speaker 1: called priority of his investigation. You know, how is it that?

72
00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:39,480
Speaker 1: First the first most obvious question, mister Muller, when did

73
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:43,960
Speaker 1: you know what you ultimately put in your report that

74
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:47,480
Speaker 1: the Trump campaign that you couldn't establish that they coordinated

75
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 1: with the Russian government in their election interference activities. When

76
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 1: did you know once you knew that? Why did you

77
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:58,239
Speaker 1: keep going? Why then we just found this out last week?

78
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:02,640
Speaker 1: Did you pick somebody like Andrew Weissman If you read

79
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,599
Speaker 1: License to Lie by Sidney Powell, who is now General

80
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 1: Flynn's attorney, Well, there are instances spelled out in specific

81
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:18,520
Speaker 1: details about how Weissman literally withheld exculpatory evidence. Any prosecutor

82
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:21,600
Speaker 1: will do that, will do that means that they do

83
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 1: not care about the law. They don't care about truth.

84
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 1: They only care about wins and losses. And some of

85
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,719
Speaker 1: them get so caught up in the winning and losing

86
00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:37,600
Speaker 1: of the cases they forget about what their principal job is,

87
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 1: which would be the administration of justice. And I think

88
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:44,880
Speaker 1: one of the harder questions that you know Mueller's going

89
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,840
Speaker 1: to have to answer is about Weisman. Why would you

90
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 1: let this guy who is withheld exculpatory evidence, Why would

91
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:57,280
Speaker 1: he become your main guy? Why would you allow Weissman,

92
00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:01,160
Speaker 1: who was at Hillary's victory party we learned last week

93
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:05,040
Speaker 1: end up hiring the people that ended up being the

94
00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:08,800
Speaker 1: Special Council team, and not one of them was a Republican.

95
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,720
Speaker 1: Most of them had donated to only Democrats. So there's

96
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:15,960
Speaker 1: a political taint right from the get go. Why would

97
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:21,440
Speaker 1: you ever hire Jeannie Ray, who is Hillary Clinton's attorney?

98
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:25,279
Speaker 1: How would you set it up that way? Now you've

99
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:29,359
Speaker 1: had time, mister Muller, for fair investigations which are rarely

100
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 1: rarely prosecuted, and loan applications that people light on, and

101
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:39,960
Speaker 1: tax violations that people cheated on taxes and years gone by,

102
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 1: two very stupid things to do. By the way, as

103
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 1: a side note to anybody out there, don't do it,

104
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,560
Speaker 1: it's against the law. Don't cheat on your taxes, it's

105
00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 1: against the law. Don't lie on a loan application. Okay,

106
00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 1: why did you have time for that? Farer violations, taxi medallions,

107
00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:01,240
Speaker 1: But you didn't have time with the broad mandate possible

108
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:05,039
Speaker 1: to look at election and interference, especially Russian? How did

109
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:08,120
Speaker 1: you not and in any way shape manner of form.

110
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 1: Want to get to the bottom of the fact that

111
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton, the other candidate in this case, not only

112
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 1: was exonerated when the evidence was overwhelming and incontrovertible, and

113
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 1: other people have gone to jail for far less. Christian

114
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 1: Saucier is the first name that comes to mind. He

115
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:30,640
Speaker 1: took six pictures of the submarine. But violation of the

116
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 1: Espionage Act? How is it possible that Hillary Clinton had

117
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:40,880
Speaker 1: marked emails top secret classified special access programming information on

118
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:47,080
Speaker 1: an outside server, A clear, no ambiguity, clear compelling case

119
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:50,040
Speaker 1: of a violation of the Espionage Act. And then, of

120
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 1: course any other American I would think that have subpoena emails,

121
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:58,000
Speaker 1: that deletes them, cleans the hard drives with bleach bit acid,

122
00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:01,120
Speaker 1: washes them, and then busts up the devices just in

123
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 1: case any of the evidence lingers and pull out sim cards.

124
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 1: How was that not obstruction? How did you not investigate

125
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 1: the dirty Russian dossier? There's a lot of legal issues

126
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 1: associated with that, you know. Did they take campaign funds?

127
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 1: Did they funnel it and tried to hide it as

128
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 1: a legal expense when they knew that the law firm

129
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 1: they hired, Perkins Cooeie was going to go out and

130
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:31,560
Speaker 1: hire an op research group Fusion GPS, that went out

131
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,559
Speaker 1: to hire a foreign national, and that in the end

132
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:37,840
Speaker 1: the foreign national and push came to Shove wouldn't even

133
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:41,320
Speaker 1: stand by his own dossier and set under oath under

134
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 1: the threat of perjury that I have no idea if

135
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 1: any of this is true? How would you not look

136
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:49,160
Speaker 1: at the fact that the first FISA application was signed

137
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:52,880
Speaker 1: in October twenty sixteen, and I'd like to know what

138
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 1: part of that was not part of Russian interference? Considering

139
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:05,680
Speaker 1: that same information was leaked to conspiracy theorists and friendlies

140
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:11,080
Speaker 1: of the Democratic Party like Michael Izikoff, a left wing hack,

141
00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:14,120
Speaker 1: or David Korn, a left wing hack, or the Washington Post.

142
00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 1: You know, obviously an anti Trump pro Hillary publication How

143
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:22,320
Speaker 1: could you not see that as interfering with Russian lies

144
00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 1: in the middle of an election. How do you not

145
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:28,040
Speaker 1: look at the fact that Andrew Weissman, your number one guy,

146
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:32,560
Speaker 1: was hanging out hopeful on election night at Hillary Clinton

147
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:37,679
Speaker 1: campaign headquarters. How do you ignore the fact that Weissman himself,

148
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:41,560
Speaker 1: that he himself was brief by Bruce Orr about the

149
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 1: contents of the dirty dossier in August to twenty sixteen.

150
00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,560
Speaker 1: But according to all accounts, you use that as a

151
00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:51,640
Speaker 1: roadmap as part of your investigation, and in that meeting

152
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:56,079
Speaker 1: he was told Steel hates Trump, it's not verified, and

153
00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:59,559
Speaker 1: Hillary paid for it, but they used in any way

154
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,240
Speaker 1: In fact, was it not a conflict of interest for you,

155
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:07,120
Speaker 1: mister Muller, when the day before Rod Rosenstein hired you

156
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:11,400
Speaker 1: as special counsel, you had interviewed with Donald Trump for

157
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:14,640
Speaker 1: the position of f Behind director and in that meeting

158
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:19,040
Speaker 1: you were told exactly why James Comey was fired. How

159
00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,959
Speaker 1: is it possible, now that we know all of this

160
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 1: information about Rush, about Ukrainians and their attempts to sway

161
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 1: the American public and influence the election by digging up

162
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:35,280
Speaker 1: and providing dirt on Manafort and others, in Ukraine and

163
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:37,800
Speaker 1: they're offering all of that information. How did you ignore

164
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 1: that aspect when you had the broadest mandate possible. You know,

165
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:45,839
Speaker 1: what do you know about this, Professor Massud? I think

166
00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:48,480
Speaker 1: John Solomon's going to be talking about later this week.

167
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 1: John Solomon has breaking news today and is going to

168
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:54,480
Speaker 1: break it on the program later. But we now find

169
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:58,280
Speaker 1: out that two weeks after being appointed, Andrew Weissman secretly

170
00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:01,720
Speaker 1: offered a plea deal to a oligarch by the name

171
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 1: of Dmitri Firtash. And this is only two weeks into

172
00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:10,880
Speaker 1: the investigation into your being hired. And you also apparently

173
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:14,240
Speaker 1: subcontracted out the hiring of all of your staff to

174
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:18,240
Speaker 1: Andrew Weisman with his atrocious track record. And anyway, we

175
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:20,840
Speaker 1: didn't know before the d details of all of this.

176
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 1: I'll let John Solomon tell you about at the top

177
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,040
Speaker 1: of the next hour, But people with direct knowledge of

178
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:30,160
Speaker 1: all of this that the deal was a really sweet

179
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 1: deal that would have been made for this Ukrainian oligarch

180
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:37,319
Speaker 1: that would have served multiple purposes and would have had

181
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,960
Speaker 1: a lot of consequences. And you know what part of

182
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 1: that didn't you want to investigate or understand if the

183
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:49,240
Speaker 1: mandate was about interference, Well, why not Ukrainian interference? If

184
00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:52,200
Speaker 1: the mandate was about Russian interference? How do you not

185
00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:54,600
Speaker 1: want to know about the Russian dossier that was leaked

186
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,440
Speaker 1: to the public before the election? If you don't if

187
00:11:57,440 --> 00:12:00,200
Speaker 1: you want to know about Russian interference? As the New

188
00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:04,560
Speaker 1: York Times characterizes the dirty Clinton bought and paid for

189
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 1: dossier as Russian disinformation from the get go, and then

190
00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 1: that Russian disinformation from the get go was used to

191
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 1: obtain a FISA warrant to spy on an American citizen

192
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 1: and then spy on all things Trump campaign, Trump transition,

193
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 1: Trump presidency. How did you ignore that part of the

194
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:28,400
Speaker 1: investigation as well? You know, as it relates to the dossier.

195
00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 1: You know, you have a lot of questions to answer here.

196
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,480
Speaker 1: And what about a conflict of interest? Are you not

197
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,960
Speaker 1: a witness even in your own case? And does the

198
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,920
Speaker 1: president under Article two powers did he not have the

199
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:44,280
Speaker 1: power to fire you if he wanted to? And why

200
00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:48,120
Speaker 1: didn't you sign any of the FISA warrants after you

201
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:50,320
Speaker 1: were appointed? You would have had the ability to at

202
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:53,520
Speaker 1: least sign the third renewal the fourth FISA warrant, but

203
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,320
Speaker 1: that ended up in the hands of Rod Rosenstein. How

204
00:12:56,320 --> 00:13:00,480
Speaker 1: did that happen? Who wrote this report? What is the motive?

205
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:03,960
Speaker 1: How do you get to obstruction when there's no underlying crime?

206
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:06,760
Speaker 1: How do you not look into the other candidates and

207
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:11,600
Speaker 1: Russian interference with Hillary and direct interference and direct payments

208
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:14,440
Speaker 1: and direct lies that were told the American people before

209
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:18,360
Speaker 1: the election. How do you not look into that Russian

210
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:24,160
Speaker 1: disinformation leading to a countertelligence investigation against Donald Trump then

211
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:28,280
Speaker 1: candidate transition member and everything else. How did you feel

212
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:32,439
Speaker 1: about James Comey? Did he violate the Espionage Act by

213
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:36,960
Speaker 1: leaking intelligence in order to get you appointed? I mean,

214
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:39,040
Speaker 1: as I have a ton of questions we'll get into

215
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,880
Speaker 1: later in the program for Comy. All of it is

216
00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:45,720
Speaker 1: out there, all of it is available. And Muller's team,

217
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:49,880
Speaker 1: you know, they're looking for some type of agreement. Well,

218
00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:55,319
Speaker 1: we have the evidence. Your report said that your investigation

219
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:58,960
Speaker 1: did not establish, and I'm quoting to verbatim that the

220
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:02,360
Speaker 1: Trump campaign coordinated with the Russian government in these in

221
00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:07,000
Speaker 1: their interference activities. Okay, that means he's exonerated. Well, then

222
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,640
Speaker 1: how do the Democrats then go to interpret what it

223
00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:12,240
Speaker 1: is you're saying now? When I read and I see

224
00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:15,960
Speaker 1: you're you know you you yourself point out in the

225
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 1: second part of the report, how there was you know,

226
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 1: not really a motive anyway. Eight hundred nine four one

227
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 1: seawan is a number you want to be a part

228
00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:28,680
Speaker 1: of the program. Now we also have this ongoing battle.

229
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:32,760
Speaker 1: All right, First it's stormy, stormy, and it's Russia, Russia.

230
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:36,240
Speaker 1: Then it's collusion, collusion, then it's s wholes whole. Now

231
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:39,600
Speaker 1: it's racist, racist thousands of times a second. That's all

232
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 1: the media says. And I'm just going to lay out

233
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:44,280
Speaker 1: the history. This is all they ever do in campaigns

234
00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:47,360
Speaker 1: and at other times, you know, you just read the headline.

235
00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:51,600
Speaker 1: I mean, they're raising expectations so high. Yes, I believe

236
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:55,320
Speaker 1: this reaches the level of high crimes and misdevenors. Nadler

237
00:14:55,520 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 1: is saying, could begin impeachment proceedings substantive evidence the Trump

238
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:04,240
Speaker 1: up is guilty of these things, and shifts saying he

239
00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:08,400
Speaker 1: believes Trump can be indicted. So the Democrats are probably

240
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:11,040
Speaker 1: going to focus on five things that is in the

241
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:14,280
Speaker 1: report on the obstruction side. Okay, well, they didn't find

242
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:16,480
Speaker 1: obstruction to the point where they felt that they could

243
00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 1: recommend anything all right, he directed the White House Council

244
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 1: to fire Muller, while the president and every ability himself

245
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:28,120
Speaker 1: to fire Muller. It makes no sense or that Corey

246
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:33,440
Speaker 1: Lewandowski that the you know, former campaign chief asked Sessions

247
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:36,240
Speaker 1: to reassert control. Why did he give up control in

248
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 1: the first place. The President complained about that publicly and

249
00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:44,240
Speaker 1: while witnessed tampering to discourage Manaport and Kohn from cooperate.

250
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:47,680
Speaker 1: Just the opposite happened, because everybody ended up cooperating in

251
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:50,920
Speaker 1: the end. And if the President has the ability and

252
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:55,680
Speaker 1: power and authority under Article two to fire Mueller, none

253
00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:58,520
Speaker 1: of it's significant because he didn't do it. I'll explain,

254
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,120
Speaker 1: all right, glad you when US twenty five till the

255
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 1: top of the hour, we have John Solomon breaking news

256
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:10,280
Speaker 1: on Andrew Weissman's bad behavior, and it raises a lot

257
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:12,080
Speaker 1: of questions that I think will be coming up in

258
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,760
Speaker 1: the hearings this week. Look, Iron York has a great,

259
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:17,280
Speaker 1: great piece out. We'll put it up on Hannity dot com.

260
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:21,040
Speaker 1: Democrats think they've got a slam dunk obstruction case against Trump,

261
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:25,160
Speaker 1: and they don't when you really get to the nuts

262
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:29,040
Speaker 1: and bolts of all of this. I remember, there's gonna

263
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:32,560
Speaker 1: be two hearings this week. One is the in the

264
00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:37,160
Speaker 1: Judiciary Committee in the House Intelligence Committee, Judiciary will focus

265
00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:42,080
Speaker 1: on volume two of the report, the so called obstruction Analysis,

266
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,000
Speaker 1: where they did not well by the way they covered

267
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:50,360
Speaker 1: allegations of obstruction, and the first volume is going to

268
00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:55,960
Speaker 1: be pursued by the Intelligence Committee. Conspiracy coordination. Well, that's

269
00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 1: we already know the answer to that, because we actually

270
00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:01,720
Speaker 1: have the Muller Report, and it couldn't be more clear,

271
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:03,920
Speaker 1: because they say over and over again they did not

272
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:07,439
Speaker 1: establish in any way, shape, matter of form that in

273
00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:12,159
Speaker 1: fact the president ever or his campaign ever coordinated with

274
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:14,680
Speaker 1: the Russians. All right, So that part was always removed

275
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 1: from the get go. Then the questions, we know, the

276
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 1: Democrats on the Intel Committee, how are they going to

277
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:27,200
Speaker 1: establish conspiracy of coordination when the Mueller Report decisively says that,

278
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:31,360
Speaker 1: in fact, the president did not do that. Okay? Issue one.

279
00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:35,600
Speaker 1: Then it's interesting, as Byron York points out, that the

280
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:40,520
Speaker 1: Democrats want to focus on five specific episodes of that

281
00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:44,000
Speaker 1: they say would prove obstruction, which, of course the Office

282
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:47,480
Speaker 1: of Legal Counsel, the Attorney General, and the Deputy Attorney

283
00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:50,879
Speaker 1: General at the time, Rod Rosenstein determined never happened, and

284
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:54,200
Speaker 1: that is that, well, Trump told White House counsel Don

285
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:59,320
Speaker 1: McGann to fire Muller and then publicly lie about it. Well,

286
00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:03,040
Speaker 1: Don McGann never fired Robert Muller, nor did the president.

287
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:09,640
Speaker 1: Numerous constitutional scholars point out that the President also brought

288
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 1: in very specific reasons why he might be fired, which

289
00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 1: was his conflicts of interest, of which there were many,

290
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:18,719
Speaker 1: not the least of which as they had a personal

291
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,200
Speaker 1: issue going back years ago related to a golf club.

292
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:23,960
Speaker 1: And number two was, well, the day before he got

293
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:27,080
Speaker 1: hired as special counsel, he was applying for the job

294
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:30,800
Speaker 1: as FBI director, and Trump said no, and it would

295
00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:33,320
Speaker 1: then make him a witness in his own case. And

296
00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:37,840
Speaker 1: I don't think that that's gonna fly very well. Or

297
00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:41,440
Speaker 1: the fact that maybe Corey Lewandowski was asking Jeff Sessions,

298
00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:43,840
Speaker 1: you know, because Jeff Sessions at the time, remember we

299
00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:47,679
Speaker 1: told you, cited the wrong statute and the wrong law

300
00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 1: justifying his recusal. Greg Jarrett was the one to broke

301
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:57,200
Speaker 1: that wide open. And again, well, it never happened. When

302
00:18:57,240 --> 00:19:00,520
Speaker 1: the initial resignation letter from Jeff Sessions came in, the

303
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:03,240
Speaker 1: President did not accept it, and he remained on as

304
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:07,400
Speaker 1: the Attorney General. But what's not there, as Byron York

305
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:12,240
Speaker 1: points out, is the evidence that's not included in the

306
00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:15,880
Speaker 1: Democrats report, or what their choice of evidence that they're

307
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 1: not going to be including in this particular case, and

308
00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:22,040
Speaker 1: that is that the firing of Comy. You know, well,

309
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:26,399
Speaker 1: that was their first big issue as possible obstruction. That

310
00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 1: is not going to be in the Democrats what the

311
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:33,639
Speaker 1: Democrats are highlighting. Nor are the conversations with Trump and

312
00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:36,399
Speaker 1: Comy that Comy wrote up in his famous report and

313
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:40,000
Speaker 1: his famous memos. Probably the Democrats have even figured out

314
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,120
Speaker 1: what we figured out is James Comey has a lot

315
00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:45,119
Speaker 1: of explaining to do himself, in spite of him sending

316
00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,000
Speaker 1: out a list of his own questions to try and

317
00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:50,920
Speaker 1: help the Democrats in their efforts this week. Anyway, Nor

318
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:55,240
Speaker 1: is the president's efforts to talk about the public story

319
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:59,879
Speaker 1: that about the Trump Tower meeting. Yet the incident was

320
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:03,760
Speaker 1: often characterize his obstruction. They're not bringing that up either, apparently,

321
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:09,080
Speaker 1: And the Mueller investigation was not obstructed by anybody, It's

322
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:12,760
Speaker 1: a matter of fact. Publicly, the President and his team

323
00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:16,480
Speaker 1: made it known to everybody that they want everyone to

324
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:21,560
Speaker 1: cooperate with congressional investigations and with the Special Council investigation. Well,

325
00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:24,040
Speaker 1: that kind of takes that narrative and blows it out

326
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:27,160
Speaker 1: of the water. Or it's important to recall Muller could

327
00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:31,320
Speaker 1: never establish an underlying crime. He would that's what he

328
00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:34,199
Speaker 1: was supposed to investigate. That was supposed to be the

329
00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:36,480
Speaker 1: core of all of this. He was going to investigate

330
00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:40,639
Speaker 1: whether or not Donald Trump, in fact and his campaign

331
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:43,840
Speaker 1: conspired against the Russians. Well, again, I'll read from the

332
00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:47,000
Speaker 1: Mueller report. It said that the investigation did not establish

333
00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 1: that the Trump campaign coordinated with the Russian government. So

334
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:53,760
Speaker 1: that can't be any more clear than what you have

335
00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:56,240
Speaker 1: here if you don't have an underlying crime. That's one

336
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:59,360
Speaker 1: of my big issues. Hillary was guilty of an underlying

337
00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:04,000
Speaker 1: crime Espionage Act. Hillary was guilty of real obstruction when

338
00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:07,119
Speaker 1: she deleted its subpoena at emails, and then the bleach

339
00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:09,080
Speaker 1: bit and then the hammers and then the sim cards

340
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:14,200
Speaker 1: are gone out of nowhere. So Mueller could never establish

341
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:18,480
Speaker 1: the underlying crime in Hillary's case. You could the fact

342
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:21,239
Speaker 1: that they're the same players, and that we found out

343
00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:25,000
Speaker 1: from the first Inspector General report that those players hated

344
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:29,480
Speaker 1: Donald Trump, that they actively worked to help save Hillary

345
00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:32,760
Speaker 1: Clinton in her campaign by not applying the law equally,

346
00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:36,880
Speaker 1: that they ignored real obstruction of justice. I would think

347
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:41,280
Speaker 1: that Republicans at different points during these hearings are going

348
00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:43,160
Speaker 1: to bring all of this out and ask, well, why

349
00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:47,159
Speaker 1: wasn't that important? Now? The Mueller Report also included a

350
00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:51,679
Speaker 1: lengthy section in Part two, quote legal defenses to the

351
00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:55,960
Speaker 1: application of obstruction of justice statutes to the President. Now

352
00:21:55,960 --> 00:22:03,200
Speaker 1: that includes extraordinarily compelling arguments. Again, the reports owned instances

353
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:07,119
Speaker 1: where they say obstruction could have occurred. Well, if you

354
00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:11,480
Speaker 1: can't prove an underlying crime, and you can't and you

355
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:15,679
Speaker 1: have the legal defenses and what the law actually requires

356
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:19,720
Speaker 1: to prove such, well, then you run into massive legal problems.

357
00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:23,000
Speaker 1: But Byron York points out this is not a legal proceeding,

358
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:26,480
Speaker 1: it's a political one, and that most of these lawmakers

359
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:28,600
Speaker 1: are dumb and don't know the law it, you know,

360
00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:30,680
Speaker 1: as we saw even over the weekends saying well what

361
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:32,679
Speaker 1: are the high crimes and misdemeans? They don't know what

362
00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:36,399
Speaker 1: the high crimes and misdemeans are because there hasn't been

363
00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:39,760
Speaker 1: any you know, everything we heard this weekend from Nadler

364
00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:41,560
Speaker 1: and Shift. They've been saying for two and a half

365
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:44,439
Speaker 1: years that we've got all this evidence, but they've not

366
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:46,920
Speaker 1: been able to produce any of it, And I doubt

367
00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:49,720
Speaker 1: they're going to be able to produce it in one

368
00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:52,359
Speaker 1: day worth the hearings, one before Shift's committee and the

369
00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:55,520
Speaker 1: other before Nadler's committee. And I also think once the

370
00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:59,359
Speaker 1: Republicans dig down deep into what has not been looked

371
00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:02,000
Speaker 1: at by mull, it's gonna make Mueller look pretty political.

372
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:04,280
Speaker 1: And I'm not sure Mueller is going to have the

373
00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:07,640
Speaker 1: ability to answer a lot of these important questions, especially

374
00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:11,400
Speaker 1: about the dirty Russian dossier and the impact that had

375
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:14,679
Speaker 1: on the twenty sixteen elections, and then the FIA abuse.

376
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,959
Speaker 1: How did you not investigate the fact that Russian lives

377
00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:21,960
Speaker 1: were used as the basis of four separate FISA applications

378
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:25,359
Speaker 1: that resulted in spying on the Trump campaign, the Trump transition,

379
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:28,800
Speaker 1: and the Trump presidency. So one of the things that

380
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:34,840
Speaker 1: our friend Byron York concludes is that you know, legal

381
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 1: analysis may dominate, cable TV coverage is not going to

382
00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:43,320
Speaker 1: really apply, and that the president's defenders will make common

383
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:48,399
Speaker 1: sense defenses that do make sense to the American people

384
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:52,280
Speaker 1: that are not lawyers. So whatever legal argument they might

385
00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:57,359
Speaker 1: be making, you know, is based on nuance and constitutional understanding.

386
00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:00,360
Speaker 1: And then Mueller has a problem of Widdy ten three

387
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:04,800
Speaker 1: separate positions on why he didn't make a final determination

388
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:07,720
Speaker 1: on obstruction. First, he said it had nothing to do

389
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:11,880
Speaker 1: with DJ policy or constitutional considerations about whether you can

390
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,800
Speaker 1: or cannot indict a sitting president. So that's going to

391
00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 1: become an issue, you know. The Mueller report contends the

392
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:24,080
Speaker 1: president's behavior changed. In June of twenty seventeen, Washington Post

393
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:27,400
Speaker 1: reports that Muller less than a month in office, investigating

394
00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:31,159
Speaker 1: Trump for obstruction, and Mueller suggesting that Trump began to

395
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:35,160
Speaker 1: obstruct the investigation. Well, that narrative is countered by one

396
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:38,359
Speaker 1: and a half million documents handed over and a public

397
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:43,600
Speaker 1: declaration encouraging everybody to cooperate and anybody that's subpoenaed to

398
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:46,399
Speaker 1: go see the Special Council or go to whatever congressional

399
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:50,520
Speaker 1: investigation is ongoing. No, but not one time was executive

400
00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:54,200
Speaker 1: privilege ever invoked, or the idea that the president told

401
00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:57,520
Speaker 1: senior advisors that the Special Council had conflicts of interest.

402
00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:02,399
Speaker 1: I think that's true. And ethics officials similarly clearing the

403
00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:06,760
Speaker 1: Special Counsel's office. And on June fourteen, twenty seventeen, the

404
00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:11,520
Speaker 1: press reported the President was being personally investigated for obstruction.

405
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,680
Speaker 1: The President tweeted out that this is a witch hunt.

406
00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:18,479
Speaker 1: President tweeted out all sorts of things. The President might

407
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:21,639
Speaker 1: have asked Don McGann, I have no idea whether he

408
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:24,480
Speaker 1: should have the Special Council fired, but that too, never

409
00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:28,399
Speaker 1: happened in the end. And the Muller report, you know,

410
00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:31,359
Speaker 1: Muller reports that Trump was upset by the appointment of Mueller,

411
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:35,240
Speaker 1: knowing that this could harm his presidency and his agenda

412
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:38,320
Speaker 1: and his ability to get things done. And Trump told

413
00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:41,640
Speaker 1: the associates that the new Special Council had conflicts of interest,

414
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:43,679
Speaker 1: and the you know, the fact that he had an

415
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:47,560
Speaker 1: issue with Robert Muller at a Trump golf club in Virginia,

416
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,560
Speaker 1: or that Mueller had applied for Jim Comey's job just

417
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:54,880
Speaker 1: the day before, you know, Trump called, We're told called

418
00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:57,679
Speaker 1: Don McGann. Why did Don McGann ever testify in the

419
00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:00,440
Speaker 1: first place. One has to ask, how does the White

420
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:04,040
Speaker 1: House Counsel not invoke executive privilege in that particular case?

421
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:07,119
Speaker 1: But he went and spent some thirty hours with the

422
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:10,600
Speaker 1: Special counsel. But that doesn't sound like somebody's really trying

423
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:13,680
Speaker 1: to hide something or obstruct something if you're allowing even

424
00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:16,640
Speaker 1: the White House Counsel to talk to the Special Counsel.

425
00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:19,600
Speaker 1: And on top of all of it, you have, at

426
00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:22,679
Speaker 1: the very very top of the pyramid, you have the

427
00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:26,959
Speaker 1: president with the legal authority to fire Robert Muller because

428
00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:29,760
Speaker 1: of the conflicts of interest. And then at the end

429
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:32,520
Speaker 1: of the day, even though the President vented anger and

430
00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:35,840
Speaker 1: talked about solutions of firings and all sorts of things,

431
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:39,160
Speaker 1: the president never did any of it. McGann never called

432
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:43,840
Speaker 1: Rod Rosenstein, McGan never asked to fire Muller. McGan never

433
00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:47,680
Speaker 1: talked about what the conflicts were. And the President himself

434
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:49,920
Speaker 1: could have done all of this, and the President did

435
00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:53,720
Speaker 1: not do any of this. And you know, by the

436
00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:57,800
Speaker 1: way McGan called, you know what Rhine's previous and Steve

437
00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:01,320
Speaker 1: Bannon said he might resign if this happened. Well, McGann

438
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:04,919
Speaker 1: didn't tell either previous or Bannon what Trump wanted, although

439
00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:09,160
Speaker 1: previous remembers McGann told him the president was asked asking

440
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:11,160
Speaker 1: him to do something that he thought would be dumb.

441
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:14,320
Speaker 1: You know, there was another call. There was not a

442
00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:17,520
Speaker 1: third call from Trump at that point. To Don McGann.

443
00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:22,399
Speaker 1: Don McGan didn't resign. Rod Rosenstein was never called. Muller

444
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:27,000
Speaker 1: wasn't fired, Mueller didn't resign, Jeff Sessions didn't resign at

445
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:30,320
Speaker 1: the time, and in late November and early December, McGann

446
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:34,239
Speaker 1: began an extensive series of interviews with Muller's prosecutors, and

447
00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:36,560
Speaker 1: by the way, The New York Times cited four people

448
00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:41,679
Speaker 1: familiar with the matter. Trump ordered muller firing but backed

449
00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:44,920
Speaker 1: off when the White House Council threatened to quit. All right,

450
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:47,520
Speaker 1: so he was advised that's a bad idea, and eventually

451
00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:50,240
Speaker 1: went along with the advice of his White House counsel.

452
00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:54,200
Speaker 1: How does any of this, again, there's no underlying crime.

453
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:57,400
Speaker 1: How does any of this become obstruction of justice? You've

454
00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:00,240
Speaker 1: really got a stretch, really far and wide to get there,

455
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:03,040
Speaker 1: all right. One of the other things that I want

456
00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:05,360
Speaker 1: to get to here is so you got all these

457
00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 1: democratic socialists, let me play for you. We have a

458
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:14,719
Speaker 1: problem in this country as it relates to this Trump

459
00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:18,760
Speaker 1: hate rage psychosis that exists, which is every second, minute, hour,

460
00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:23,480
Speaker 1: of every day. If you notice what the media mob does.

461
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:27,159
Speaker 1: They wake up every day and they all get on

462
00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:29,960
Speaker 1: the same page, and they all end up using the

463
00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:35,040
Speaker 1: same phrases and the same arguments, and they get all hysterical,

464
00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:38,280
Speaker 1: and they get all worked up, and they repeat over

465
00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:42,320
Speaker 1: and over again whatever the point happens to be. They

466
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:47,080
Speaker 1: never do it with Democrats. They only do it with Republicans. Now,

467
00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 1: I remember Mitt Romney is probably one of the nicest

468
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,560
Speaker 1: guys in the world. They try to make Mitt Romney

469
00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:54,840
Speaker 1: out to be a racist. Joe Biden saying they're gonna

470
00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:58,520
Speaker 1: put you all back in chains. I remember Al Gore

471
00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:01,560
Speaker 1: when he's running for office, saying Republicans have the wrong

472
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:04,200
Speaker 1: agenda for African Americans. They don't want to even count

473
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:08,320
Speaker 1: you in the census. Hillary Clinton said similar things. Barack

474
00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:12,600
Speaker 1: Obama said similar things. We had Missouri radio ads that says,

475
00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:16,360
Speaker 1: if you elect Republicans black, you know, churches are gonna burn.

476
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:19,360
Speaker 1: You had the James Bird add in two thousand that

477
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:21,760
Speaker 1: said it was like my father was killed all over

478
00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:26,520
Speaker 1: again because George W. Bush didn't support hate crimes legislation,

479
00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:30,440
Speaker 1: when in fact he supported the death penalty for these

480
00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:34,680
Speaker 1: evil you can't even call subhuman beings that dragged this

481
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,880
Speaker 1: poor man to his death. And you can't have a

482
00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:41,320
Speaker 1: bigger penalty than the death penalty. John McCain, who was

483
00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:44,160
Speaker 1: always loved by the media, well even he was called

484
00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:47,440
Speaker 1: the racist when he ran for president. This is standard

485
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:53,200
Speaker 1: operating procedure. So we've gone from the medium mantras. If

486
00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:56,880
Speaker 1: you follow the bouncing ball, it becomes Russia, Russia, Russia,

487
00:29:57,160 --> 00:30:02,400
Speaker 1: it goes to collusion, collusion, collusion, and it goes to stormy, stormy, stormy,

488
00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:05,960
Speaker 1: and then it goes to s holsls hole and then

489
00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:09,560
Speaker 1: it goes to well, where we are today? Racist? Racist? Racist.

490
00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 1: There was a three day period last week where more

491
00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:19,400
Speaker 1: than two thousand times the media mob in this country

492
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:23,440
Speaker 1: said the word racist. Now, why do we point these

493
00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:27,920
Speaker 1: things out because your media is corrupt, because your media

494
00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:31,280
Speaker 1: has an agenda? Now do they do the same thing

495
00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:34,800
Speaker 1: with the Democrats? Have they pointed out the virulent anti

496
00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:41,840
Speaker 1: semitism of Congresswoman Omar the controversial comments of Acacio Cortez,

497
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:45,600
Speaker 1: when you know, calls America garbage, or the fact or

498
00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:51,000
Speaker 1: the comparisons of the detention centers to concentration camps. Now

499
00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:55,800
Speaker 1: do they talk about Congresswoman Omar and you know her

500
00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:59,760
Speaker 1: comments how Israel has the world hypnotized and may all

501
00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:04,280
Speaker 1: awaken people around the world to Israel's whatever powers. No,

502
00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:08,840
Speaker 1: they talk about her using the term it's all about

503
00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:14,680
Speaker 1: the Benjamin's or comparing Israel to Nazi Germany. No, they

504
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:19,840
Speaker 1: have used virulent anti Semitic remarks. They have used really

505
00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:24,320
Speaker 1: remarks that trash this country. Congresswoman Omar saying pretty much

506
00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:26,880
Speaker 1: that America was to blame for a terrorist attack and

507
00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:30,360
Speaker 1: a Kenyan mall in twenty thirteen. No, we were not.

508
00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:32,920
Speaker 1: That would be El Shabab that was responsible for that.

509
00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:36,440
Speaker 1: So my point is, this is your media. We'll get

510
00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:39,560
Speaker 1: into more details. We also have John Solomon today this week,

511
00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:41,720
Speaker 1: we'll have a chance to ask questions of Robert Muller,

512
00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:44,880
Speaker 1: the Special Council when he appears and answers questions about

513
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:47,040
Speaker 1: that four hundred page report he turned in. He's already

514
00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:49,040
Speaker 1: said he's not going to go beyond those four hundred

515
00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:52,320
Speaker 1: something pages. What is the purpose? What do you actually

516
00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:55,240
Speaker 1: think you're going to learn? Well, since most Americans, you know,

517
00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:57,560
Speaker 1: in their busy lives, haven't had the opportunity to read

518
00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:01,200
Speaker 1: that report, and it's a pretty dry prosecutorial work product.

519
00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:04,560
Speaker 1: We want Bob Muller to bring it to life, to

520
00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:07,240
Speaker 1: talk about what's in that report. It's a pretty damning

521
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:10,480
Speaker 1: set of facts that involve a presidential campaign in a

522
00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:14,640
Speaker 1: close race, welcoming help from a hostile foreign power, not

523
00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:19,800
Speaker 1: reporting it, but eagerly embracing it, building into their campaign strategy.

524
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:23,280
Speaker 1: All right, expect the show that's going to be Robert

525
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:26,960
Speaker 1: Mueller this week. And yeah, well, I guess they're telegraphing

526
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:31,160
Speaker 1: where they think this is going to go. And you know,

527
00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:34,120
Speaker 1: we want, we want the American people to hear from

528
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:38,720
Speaker 1: Robert Muller and saying, yes, this could be getting Trump

529
00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:42,760
Speaker 1: impeachment proceedings. For what I have in front of me,

530
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:47,200
Speaker 1: I have the Muller Report, and it says the investigation

531
00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:51,280
Speaker 1: did not establish that the Trump campaign coordinated with the

532
00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:55,480
Speaker 1: Russian government in its election interference activities, meeting the Russians?

533
00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:59,680
Speaker 1: What part of that? All right? Well, what about obstruction? Well,

534
00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:02,000
Speaker 1: if you look, how did the president and obstruct when

535
00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:06,800
Speaker 1: there's no underlying crime? The president cooperated, one point five

536
00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:12,520
Speaker 1: million documents handed over, everybody encouraged to testify. The President

537
00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:16,760
Speaker 1: answered questions of Muller and his team. But this now

538
00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:21,400
Speaker 1: being the now a fifth and sixth investigation, four separate investigations,

539
00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:25,080
Speaker 1: including the Muller Report, all saying the same thing. What

540
00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:28,240
Speaker 1: the Muller Report says, they didn't establish the Trump campaign

541
00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:32,120
Speaker 1: coordinated with the Russian government. Nadler saying, just like they've

542
00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:34,880
Speaker 1: been saying for two and a half year, substantial evidence

543
00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:38,520
Speaker 1: at the president's guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors. Well,

544
00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:42,240
Speaker 1: what is it. We've been waiting, what is it? Oh,

545
00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:45,640
Speaker 1: it's going to air evidence of wrongdoing. And Adam Schiff again,

546
00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:48,640
Speaker 1: he's been saying again the biggest liar on TV. That

547
00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:51,760
Speaker 1: won't take three hours. We've offered him on this radio show,

548
00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:56,120
Speaker 1: one hour on TV. How Trump could easily be indicted.

549
00:33:56,480 --> 00:34:01,000
Speaker 1: He's essentially an unindicted cold conspirator. They just this up.

550
00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:04,440
Speaker 1: By the way, a federal judge sided with a Russian

551
00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:10,439
Speaker 1: company rebuking Robert Muller recently, which is pretty interesting here

552
00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:14,759
Speaker 1: chastising the Special Counsel for stating the Russian government was

553
00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:18,320
Speaker 1: behind election year social media trolling, where there's no evidence

554
00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:21,960
Speaker 1: that was ever presented by prosecutors. Where is that evidence?

555
00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:25,960
Speaker 1: That's a good question, said his Nadler's name appears more

556
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:30,200
Speaker 1: than one hundred times, and the redacted version of the

557
00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:34,080
Speaker 1: Special Council's report alleged to have served as an adviser

558
00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:37,439
Speaker 1: to the unit Nited Arab Emirates, etc. Etc. Oh, there's

559
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:40,480
Speaker 1: a real good witness for you, if ever I've seen one.

560
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:44,560
Speaker 1: And but they just keep pushing and the cowardly shift.

561
00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:47,000
Speaker 1: He should be indicted. He should be indicted when he

562
00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:51,720
Speaker 1: leaves office. And the Democratic Congressman Steve Cohen suggesting Trump

563
00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:54,680
Speaker 1: and bar brainwashed the public with life. No they didn't

564
00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:59,640
Speaker 1: what part of did not establish the campaign coordinated with

565
00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:04,680
Speaker 1: the Ussian government. Now, John Solomon has done amazing work

566
00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:07,640
Speaker 1: for the last two and a half years, and he's

567
00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:12,040
Speaker 1: going to have two explosive stories that are coming out

568
00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:15,480
Speaker 1: this week. One will be out and available by nine

569
00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:19,480
Speaker 1: o'clock tonight when we come on Hannity, and it is

570
00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:23,239
Speaker 1: new You know that Muller deputy. In other words, the

571
00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:26,360
Speaker 1: pit Poll, as The New York Times called Andrew Weissman,

572
00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:31,919
Speaker 1: apparently secretly offered a plea deal to an oligarch, one

573
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:35,040
Speaker 1: to get himself out of trouble, and two to get

574
00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:38,680
Speaker 1: information that he thought might hurt Donald Trump. Remember, this

575
00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:41,120
Speaker 1: is the guy that was at Hillary's victory party that

576
00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:44,279
Speaker 1: never happened. This is the guy we learned last week

577
00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:49,880
Speaker 1: was responsible almost solely for hiring all of the Democratic donors,

578
00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:54,040
Speaker 1: no Republican donors, including Clinton's former attorney. He's the guy

579
00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:58,200
Speaker 1: that put Enron Accounting people out of business, Tens of

580
00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:00,920
Speaker 1: thousands of people lost their job, lost nine zero in

581
00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:03,879
Speaker 1: the Supreme Court. This is a guy licensed to lie

582
00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:09,080
Speaker 1: by Sidney Powell gives examples of him withholding exculpatory evidence.

583
00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:11,759
Speaker 1: This is a guy that put four Merrill executives in

584
00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:14,360
Speaker 1: jail for a year, only to be overturned by the

585
00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:17,840
Speaker 1: Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. How does this guy become

586
00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:20,680
Speaker 1: your lead guy? How does he become your pit bull?

587
00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:23,200
Speaker 1: How does he become in charge of hiring? Well, now

588
00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:27,000
Speaker 1: we're learning more about Andrew Weisman. John Solomon joins us

589
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:29,680
Speaker 1: with this breaking news. What do you got Well, if

590
00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:32,480
Speaker 1: we take everybody back to the June of twenty seventeen,

591
00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:34,640
Speaker 1: the summer of twenty seventeen, if we were all reading

592
00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:37,560
Speaker 1: the mainstream media back then, we thought the Mueller investigation

593
00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:41,279
Speaker 1: was chugging along and Donald Trump was in giant trouble. Right.

594
00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:43,200
Speaker 1: If you remember back that time. Now they're watching Kennedy,

595
00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:46,440
Speaker 1: they might have had a different story. But the public's

596
00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:49,799
Speaker 1: perception was that the Mueller investigation was steamrolling ahead and

597
00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:52,359
Speaker 1: that we were just weeks or months away from big

598
00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:55,760
Speaker 1: indictments in the fall of the presidency. Behind the scenes,

599
00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:59,319
Speaker 1: we now know that Andrew Weisman and Robert Mueller saw

600
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:03,640
Speaker 1: their case rumbling, that the Steele dossier had been debunked,

601
00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:06,160
Speaker 1: and that they had very few pieces of Evans left

602
00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:09,839
Speaker 1: even hint of any Russia collusion with Trump, and so

603
00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:13,480
Speaker 1: on the second week of the Muller investigation, what I'm

604
00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:18,640
Speaker 1: able to document today is that Weisman, not even moved

605
00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:21,760
Speaker 1: into his new office yet reaches out to a major

606
00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:26,160
Speaker 1: Ukrainian figure who's under US indictment since twenty fourteen and

607
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:29,799
Speaker 1: basically says, I can waive my magic Muller wand and

608
00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:32,080
Speaker 1: make your criminal charges go away if you give me

609
00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:35,160
Speaker 1: some dirt on Trump. Now keep it. Keep in mind,

610
00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:38,160
Speaker 1: Muller's not even staffed up yet, he's not even fully

611
00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:41,120
Speaker 1: read into the case. And here is Andrew Weisman trying

612
00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:43,600
Speaker 1: to throw a hail Mary plea bargain to a guy

613
00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:47,719
Speaker 1: that's been under indictment for several years, and you'll learn

614
00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:51,840
Speaker 1: in the course of the negotiations in his behavior, Weisman,

615
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:54,640
Speaker 1: in seeking up plea bargain, and what's known as a

616
00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:57,960
Speaker 1: proffer from the defendant, suggests the testimony that would be

617
00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:01,080
Speaker 1: most helpful to him. The problem is, this Ukrainian oligarch

618
00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:03,200
Speaker 1: isn't willing to give that testimony, isn't willing to lie,

619
00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:06,000
Speaker 1: isn't willing to make up any stories. So the deal

620
00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:09,440
Speaker 1: falls apart. But what we find out is that Weisman's

621
00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:12,239
Speaker 1: motive for the deal might not only have been to

622
00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:14,760
Speaker 1: get Donald Trump, which clearly was one of his motives.

623
00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:18,080
Speaker 1: It might also have been to make a problem go

624
00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:20,160
Speaker 1: away for the Justice Department. It turns out, in the

625
00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:23,800
Speaker 1: summer of seventeen, again not public, the case against the

626
00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:27,720
Speaker 1: Mucci for test this Ukrainian oligarch is falling apart. The

627
00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:31,520
Speaker 1: key piece of evidence alleging bribery by the Ukrainian businessman

628
00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:34,840
Speaker 1: is now deemed to be a fraud, and two of

629
00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:37,560
Speaker 1: the key witnesses against that the Justice Department used to

630
00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:41,520
Speaker 1: secure the indictment have recanted their allegations. So behind the

631
00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:45,480
Speaker 1: scenes you have Andrew Weisman, the ultimate fixture trying to

632
00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:48,879
Speaker 1: make a case go away that might involve the oj misconduct,

633
00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:52,160
Speaker 1: and trying to get some hail married dirt play on

634
00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:56,400
Speaker 1: Donald Trump. Neither one worked very well for him or

635
00:38:56,440 --> 00:39:00,239
Speaker 1: for the Justice Department. How does Muller and so the

636
00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:03,279
Speaker 1: question with a guy like Weisman's track record, which is

637
00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:05,840
Speaker 1: only getting worse with this new report that you're putting

638
00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:09,480
Speaker 1: out here, how does he answer the question of why

639
00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:14,080
Speaker 1: he only picked Democrats, Why Andrew Weissman became in control

640
00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:19,000
Speaker 1: of hiring only Democrats. What part of this guy's record

641
00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:23,920
Speaker 1: of withholding exculpatory evidence causing Americans tends of thousands to

642
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:28,160
Speaker 1: lose their jobs, his losses in the Supreme Court putting

643
00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:32,840
Speaker 1: innocent people in jail overturned? You know, at what point

644
00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:36,880
Speaker 1: is he not responsible for hiring a guy whose conduct

645
00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:40,400
Speaker 1: is atrocious and his track record atrocious. Well, that is

646
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:42,200
Speaker 1: clearly going to be one of the questions he's going

647
00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:44,960
Speaker 1: to have to answer during Wednesday's hearing if it happens.

648
00:39:44,960 --> 00:39:48,239
Speaker 1: And I think that it's very important for all the

649
00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:52,719
Speaker 1: American public to understand why did Muller pick Weisman? And

650
00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:55,920
Speaker 1: I think one of the answers is Weisman is emblematic

651
00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:59,920
Speaker 1: of a period in the Justice Department history where prosecutor

652
00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:02,080
Speaker 1: ran rough shot all of the great stuff that you

653
00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:05,160
Speaker 1: see in Sydney Powell's great book License to Lie. Andrew

654
00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:10,680
Speaker 1: Weisman's the poster child for that cowboy version of prosecutorial pursuit, aggressiveness,

655
00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:14,520
Speaker 1: withholding exculpatory information, all the things that we also see

656
00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:17,839
Speaker 1: in the Russia case, right overstatement of the facts, which

657
00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:23,720
Speaker 1: recently resulted in Mueller getting rebuked by a judge. Andrew

658
00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:26,279
Speaker 1: Weisman is the face of a Justice department that was

659
00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:28,960
Speaker 1: operating under the Obama years, particularly I mean even going

660
00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:30,600
Speaker 1: back into the Bush years when you saw the end

661
00:40:30,680 --> 00:40:34,040
Speaker 1: Run case. And I think today the problem is that

662
00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:36,799
Speaker 1: his conduct not only leading up to the time when

663
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:40,920
Speaker 1: he was appointed to Muller's team, but during Mueller's tenure

664
00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:43,439
Speaker 1: is going to raise a lot of questions. I think

665
00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:45,960
Speaker 1: Andrew Weisman has a lot to answer for him. And

666
00:40:46,080 --> 00:40:48,520
Speaker 1: the first question is, how could you two weeks into

667
00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:51,640
Speaker 1: an investigation, before you even know anything, You're already throwing

668
00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:54,120
Speaker 1: a hail Mary plea bargain out there to a Ukrainian

669
00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:57,320
Speaker 1: ola guard. And what sort of Justice department brings charges

670
00:40:57,360 --> 00:41:00,600
Speaker 1: against a foreigner? And then finds out afterwards that evidence

671
00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:03,279
Speaker 1: was wrong, or that they misstated their evidence, or that

672
00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:06,480
Speaker 1: their witnesses are recanting. There's a real question about the

673
00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:11,120
Speaker 1: Obama Justice Department's conduct in this period, starting back when

674
00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:14,759
Speaker 1: Firtash was indicted in twenty fourteen and continuing to the

675
00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:18,399
Speaker 1: advent of the Russian investigation. And Andrew Weisman is at

676
00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:20,960
Speaker 1: the center of that machine. And I think Bob Muller

677
00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:23,560
Speaker 1: has a lot of questions to answer on Wednesday. How

678
00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:28,040
Speaker 1: do we know that? So Weisman's two weeks into the deal,

679
00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:32,520
Speaker 1: he reaches out to the American lawyers for those Russian

680
00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:38,480
Speaker 1: oligarch Dmitri what is it Firtash and with attempting offer

681
00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:41,719
Speaker 1: give us third on Trump in the Russia case, and

682
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:46,120
Speaker 1: Mueller might make the Ukrainian oligarchs twenty fourteen US criminal

683
00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:51,279
Speaker 1: charges go away. And you're saying that there's evidence that

684
00:41:51,360 --> 00:41:56,040
Speaker 1: in fact, he's basically telling them what they want to hear. Yeah,

685
00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:59,680
Speaker 1: there's very specific things. So the way these proper situations go,

686
00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:02,600
Speaker 1: and I've covered the Justice Department for thirty years, normally

687
00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:04,839
Speaker 1: the prosecutors say, if you're interested in a plea deal

688
00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:08,080
Speaker 1: first off, Usually it's the defense that comes to the prosecutors.

689
00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:11,400
Speaker 1: In this case, it's the prosecutors going to the defense. Secondly,

690
00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:16,600
Speaker 1: no matter how the conversation starts, the normal conduct of

691
00:42:16,640 --> 00:42:18,880
Speaker 1: the prosecutors, these are the topics. Were interested and let

692
00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:20,480
Speaker 1: us know if your client has anything and make a

693
00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:25,560
Speaker 1: proffer an offer of testimony. Here Weiseman's shares incredibly private

694
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:28,440
Speaker 1: details about what Muller and his early thinking about the

695
00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:31,160
Speaker 1: case is. And he's sort of suggesting what would be

696
00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:34,360
Speaker 1: the helpful testimony, sort of leading the witness towards his

697
00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:36,319
Speaker 1: profer And I'll give you a couple of examples that

698
00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:39,440
Speaker 1: really jumped out to me. And what happened was that

699
00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:43,120
Speaker 1: the fir Tash team kept very good records of these contacts,

700
00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:44,800
Speaker 1: so you would know. Let me give you one example

701
00:42:45,120 --> 00:42:47,840
Speaker 1: something that was not public at the time but was

702
00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:50,200
Speaker 1: clearly part of the ferry. They're talking about this guy

703
00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:54,200
Speaker 1: Felix Sader, former FBI informant, somebody who made a lot

704
00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:58,400
Speaker 1: of allegations against Trump, and he Wiseman's telling the fur

705
00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:00,799
Speaker 1: Tash team, we think a company tied to him called

706
00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:04,120
Speaker 1: bay Rock, it was secretly investing in Trump's companies. That's

707
00:43:04,120 --> 00:43:06,080
Speaker 1: not public information. That's not the sort of thing you

708
00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:09,000
Speaker 1: should be sharing with a defendant. At the time, they

709
00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:11,240
Speaker 1: told them they were looking for dirt on Jared Kushner.

710
00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:14,120
Speaker 1: Nobody knew what we were Muller was looking at Jared

711
00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:17,040
Speaker 1: Kushner at that time. They told them that one of

712
00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:19,319
Speaker 1: the groups that Manafort was working for might have been

713
00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:22,000
Speaker 1: an illegal front, and that the Russians were trying to

714
00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:26,400
Speaker 1: coordinate their work through this illegal front. None of that

715
00:43:26,520 --> 00:43:28,480
Speaker 1: is public at the time, and yet it's being shared

716
00:43:28,520 --> 00:43:34,000
Speaker 1: behind the scenes by Wiseman too. Fur Tash are defended

717
00:43:34,040 --> 00:43:37,120
Speaker 1: in the criminal case, sort of giving him the idea

718
00:43:37,120 --> 00:43:40,040
Speaker 1: of what Mueller needs to close these cases down. That's

719
00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:42,160
Speaker 1: sort of what they call in the in the legal business,

720
00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:44,719
Speaker 1: leading the witness, and I think that you know, when

721
00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:46,920
Speaker 1: you see that behavior, it not only shocked some of

722
00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:49,960
Speaker 1: the fur Tash legal team members, it really raises questions

723
00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:52,080
Speaker 1: among some of the legal experts I talked to in

724
00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:54,560
Speaker 1: the last day or two about this, about the documents

725
00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:57,080
Speaker 1: I have. Yeah, I gotta take a break. We'll come

726
00:43:57,120 --> 00:44:01,480
Speaker 1: back more with the executive vice president and the investigative reporter,

727
00:44:01,560 --> 00:44:06,760
Speaker 1: John Solomon. A right. As we continue with John Solomon,

728
00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:11,000
Speaker 1: investigative reporter and Executive Vice President of the Hill. All right,

729
00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:15,000
Speaker 1: so let's let's get your take, your preview of what

730
00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:17,560
Speaker 1: you think we're going to see this week. Besides, I mean,

731
00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:19,440
Speaker 1: they're going to try and put on a show. I mean,

732
00:44:19,920 --> 00:44:22,800
Speaker 1: SHIFT is already moving to discredit the Horowitz report. I

733
00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:26,600
Speaker 1: noticed before its release, Well, why would we ever in

734
00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:31,600
Speaker 1: the middle of a Muller investigation into possible Russian interference

735
00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:34,080
Speaker 1: in the twenty sixteen election? Why would we be more

736
00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:38,960
Speaker 1: concerned about FARA violations and loan applications and old tax

737
00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:42,600
Speaker 1: returns and taxi medallions, but not interested in what the

738
00:44:42,600 --> 00:44:47,280
Speaker 1: New York Times is now suggesting was always Russian disinformation

739
00:44:47,360 --> 00:44:50,719
Speaker 1: that Hillary paid for that was disseminated to you know,

740
00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:54,080
Speaker 1: these hacks and conspiracy theorists like Michael Izakoff and the

741
00:44:54,120 --> 00:44:57,360
Speaker 1: Washington Post and David korne Why would we care about that?

742
00:44:57,560 --> 00:44:59,840
Speaker 1: Not even ask a single question about a dirty ru

743
00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:04,040
Speaker 1: shandassier and that being the basis of a FISA warrant.

744
00:45:04,200 --> 00:45:07,120
Speaker 1: But there's no need to think about those things. How

745
00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:10,800
Speaker 1: does Muller answer that question? It is a great question.

746
00:45:10,920 --> 00:45:13,279
Speaker 1: I suspect that Robert Muller is going to be a

747
00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:16,920
Speaker 1: dud of a witness, much like Michael Cohen turned out

748
00:45:16,960 --> 00:45:18,400
Speaker 1: to be a dud of a witness and in fact

749
00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:21,640
Speaker 1: backfired and the Democrats as the very first witness in

750
00:45:21,719 --> 00:45:25,560
Speaker 1: the House, Democrats new investigations. And I think the reason

751
00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:28,719
Speaker 1: why he's telegraphed, why he has said publicly he will

752
00:45:28,760 --> 00:45:31,080
Speaker 1: not go beyond what's in the report. So I suspect

753
00:45:31,080 --> 00:45:35,279
Speaker 1: you did think Muller, as Devin Nouness suggested, maybe coordinating

754
00:45:35,360 --> 00:45:39,120
Speaker 1: with the House Dems about what he's gonna say. I

755
00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:41,640
Speaker 1: have a strong reason to believe that Robert Muller is

756
00:45:41,640 --> 00:45:44,160
Speaker 1: going to stick to the words that he said after

757
00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:46,640
Speaker 1: as press conference. How strong a belief do you have?

758
00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:50,759
Speaker 1: Because that, let me interpret for our audience. If John

759
00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:53,360
Speaker 1: Solomon's I have a strong sense, it means that he

760
00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:55,560
Speaker 1: pretty much knows. So why don't you just tell us

761
00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:57,279
Speaker 1: what you know. I don't want to say I know,

762
00:45:57,320 --> 00:45:59,880
Speaker 1: because no one can predict a person's behavior until it happens.

763
00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:03,840
Speaker 1: But my reporting suggests that what Robert Mueller said a

764
00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:06,120
Speaker 1: month ago, which is I'm not intending to go beyond

765
00:46:06,120 --> 00:46:08,279
Speaker 1: what's in the report, is what's going to be the

766
00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:10,239
Speaker 1: core of testimony. And I think you're going to hear

767
00:46:10,280 --> 00:46:12,760
Speaker 1: a lot of times I refer you to the report

768
00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:14,279
Speaker 1: and I have nothing more to add to it. I

769
00:46:14,280 --> 00:46:16,359
Speaker 1: think he's going to do that a lot in the

770
00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:18,200
Speaker 1: course of the hearing. That's going to be frustrating the

771
00:46:18,280 --> 00:46:21,919
Speaker 1: both sides. But I think the questions, particularly those from Republicans,

772
00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:24,600
Speaker 1: are going to be enlightening. I think people like Devin

773
00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:27,400
Speaker 1: Nunion has, Mark Meadows, and Jim Jordan are going to

774
00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:30,759
Speaker 1: ask questions while a national audience is paying attention. That's

775
00:46:30,760 --> 00:46:33,080
Speaker 1: going to shock the American public because they haven't been

776
00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:35,520
Speaker 1: able to hear all these things before. They're there's going

777
00:46:35,600 --> 00:46:37,640
Speaker 1: to be real questions about the conduct of the Russian

778
00:46:37,640 --> 00:46:41,840
Speaker 1: investigation and Mueller's team and Weisman. It's interesting time that

779
00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:45,319
Speaker 1: many Americans hear that. Look, if you want to say,

780
00:46:45,360 --> 00:46:49,960
Speaker 1: you're welcome, I have my questions. Jim Comey, the arrogant SuperPatriot,

781
00:46:50,080 --> 00:46:52,720
Speaker 1: put out his questions that he wants Democrats to ask,

782
00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:55,800
Speaker 1: and I have questions that I want to ask, Jim Comey,

783
00:46:57,200 --> 00:46:59,279
Speaker 1: And if you want to stick around and add to it,

784
00:46:59,320 --> 00:47:01,839
Speaker 1: and what question as you think Republicans can you You're

785
00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:04,640
Speaker 1: welcome to stay, John Solomon, But I don't know what

786
00:47:04,680 --> 00:47:08,520
Speaker 1: your schedules. All right, Executive vice all right, great, executive

787
00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:11,640
Speaker 1: vice president for the Hill Investigative reporter will come back.

788
00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:16,480
Speaker 1: My questions for Jim Collmey, and then also my questions

789
00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:19,080
Speaker 1: for Muller. Well, me and John will put that together

790
00:47:19,120 --> 00:47:22,000
Speaker 1: as we continue straight ahead, all right, twenty five till

791
00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:24,240
Speaker 1: the top of the hour, eight hundred nine for one sean,

792
00:47:24,280 --> 00:47:25,520
Speaker 1: if you want to be a part of the program,

793
00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:28,560
Speaker 1: we'll get back to our top story, which is you know,

794
00:47:28,600 --> 00:47:33,640
Speaker 1: it's first it's Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia, collusion, collusion, collusion, collusion,

795
00:47:33,719 --> 00:47:40,360
Speaker 1: stormy stormy, stormy, stormy, sho shleshole. And now it's racist, racist, racist.

796
00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:44,320
Speaker 1: They cannot stop themselves. Now, the arrogant one, the super

797
00:47:44,360 --> 00:47:47,439
Speaker 1: patriot himself, James Comey, has come out with his list

798
00:47:47,480 --> 00:47:52,800
Speaker 1: of questions and ideas for the House Democrats of questions

799
00:47:52,800 --> 00:47:56,719
Speaker 1: that he wants. Okay, I have questions too, and John

800
00:47:56,719 --> 00:48:00,279
Speaker 1: Solomon remains with US Executive vice president, investigated were Porter

801
00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:04,000
Speaker 1: of the Hill. I just jotted these down very quickly.

802
00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:06,400
Speaker 1: We'll maybe put them up on the website today. But

803
00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:12,280
Speaker 1: how about this, what is the espionage eighteen USC seven

804
00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:15,560
Speaker 1: ninety three? Say? Then I would put the legislation up

805
00:48:16,160 --> 00:48:18,840
Speaker 1: and say what part of that did Hillary not violate?

806
00:48:19,719 --> 00:48:23,200
Speaker 1: Why was the language changed, mister Komey in the exoneration

807
00:48:23,239 --> 00:48:26,760
Speaker 1: of Hillary Rodham Clinton when it was written in early

808
00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:31,400
Speaker 1: May from the legal standard gross negligence and those words

809
00:48:31,480 --> 00:48:35,440
Speaker 1: became extreme carelessness, which does not meet the legal standard.

810
00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:39,680
Speaker 1: You talk a lot about questions you want answered about

811
00:48:39,719 --> 00:48:42,920
Speaker 1: obstruction involving the president, but there's no underlying crime because

812
00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:46,040
Speaker 1: we go directly to the Muller report that says that

813
00:48:46,120 --> 00:48:48,960
Speaker 1: they did not establish the Trump campaign coordinated with the

814
00:48:49,200 --> 00:48:53,360
Speaker 1: Russian government in their election interference activities. So in the

815
00:48:53,400 --> 00:48:56,160
Speaker 1: case of Hillary, there is the Espionage Act, and she

816
00:48:56,320 --> 00:49:00,800
Speaker 1: did delete thirty three thousand emails, and she used bleach

817
00:49:00,880 --> 00:49:03,040
Speaker 1: bit to clean up the hard drive so they couldn't

818
00:49:03,080 --> 00:49:06,200
Speaker 1: be recovered. And then of course she busted up devices

819
00:49:06,200 --> 00:49:09,600
Speaker 1: with hammers, had an aid do it, and they removed

820
00:49:09,640 --> 00:49:12,959
Speaker 1: the simcards just to make doubly sure that no data

821
00:49:13,200 --> 00:49:17,719
Speaker 1: existed or remained. What about those emails? Tell us how

822
00:49:17,800 --> 00:49:21,040
Speaker 1: that's not obstruction of justice? And while we're at mister

823
00:49:21,120 --> 00:49:24,560
Speaker 1: colemany how many times, well you warned about the dossier

824
00:49:24,760 --> 00:49:28,480
Speaker 1: being unverified? We know of two instances directly. One was

825
00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:31,759
Speaker 1: from Bruce Or in August to twenty sixteen, and one

826
00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:34,960
Speaker 1: was about two weeks prior to you signing the first

827
00:49:35,040 --> 00:49:38,240
Speaker 1: FISA application, with the bulk of information being the Hillary

828
00:49:38,280 --> 00:49:42,759
Speaker 1: Clinton bought and paid for dirty Russian disinformation dossier. So

829
00:49:43,120 --> 00:49:46,640
Speaker 1: the question is how many other times were you warned

830
00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:51,520
Speaker 1: about the dossier not being verifiable? Why did you sign

831
00:49:51,640 --> 00:49:57,040
Speaker 1: the FISA application using the bulk of information as Hillary's

832
00:49:57,080 --> 00:50:00,480
Speaker 1: bought and paid for Russian dossier, Because when you signed it,

833
00:50:00,800 --> 00:50:03,200
Speaker 1: you are swearing to the fact that it was verified.

834
00:50:03,320 --> 00:50:07,640
Speaker 1: We now know it's unverifiable, as its own author says

835
00:50:07,880 --> 00:50:09,800
Speaker 1: he has no idea if any of it's true. And

836
00:50:10,000 --> 00:50:14,360
Speaker 1: when the counterintelligence investigation into the Trump campaign began, what

837
00:50:14,600 --> 00:50:17,160
Speaker 1: was the basis for such an investigation? And why was

838
00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:21,200
Speaker 1: there no investigation into Hillary Rodham Clinton and her bought

839
00:50:21,320 --> 00:50:25,360
Speaker 1: and paid for Russian dossier with funneled money into a

840
00:50:25,520 --> 00:50:27,920
Speaker 1: law firm, to an op research firm that hired a

841
00:50:27,960 --> 00:50:31,200
Speaker 1: foreign national. And last, but certainly not least, mister Koma,

842
00:50:31,280 --> 00:50:34,640
Speaker 1: you say the FBI doesn't spy, we don't spy your

843
00:50:34,719 --> 00:50:38,480
Speaker 1: exact words, Well, when you signed the FISA application, the

844
00:50:38,560 --> 00:50:41,960
Speaker 1: first one and I believe you signed three well warrant

845
00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:45,080
Speaker 1: you putting your signature on a document that it will

846
00:50:45,080 --> 00:50:49,759
Speaker 1: allow spying into Carter Page and also simultaneously backdoor into

847
00:50:49,840 --> 00:50:53,680
Speaker 1: all things Trump campaign, later Trump transition team, and later

848
00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:57,279
Speaker 1: the Trump presidency. How is that not spying? You want

849
00:50:57,320 --> 00:50:59,279
Speaker 1: to add to that, John Solomon, I got one more

850
00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:04,120
Speaker 1: question for Did you knowingly and willfully leaked classified memos

851
00:51:04,160 --> 00:51:06,400
Speaker 1: to your lawyers as part of an effort to get

852
00:51:06,440 --> 00:51:10,560
Speaker 1: a special prosecutor named? And if so, were you aware

853
00:51:10,640 --> 00:51:13,600
Speaker 1: that you were violating the Spnash Act when you did so.

854
00:51:14,160 --> 00:51:17,759
Speaker 1: We have strong evidence that he gave classified memos to

855
00:51:17,840 --> 00:51:20,600
Speaker 1: his lawyers and that the FBI scrub teams had to

856
00:51:20,680 --> 00:51:23,759
Speaker 1: come back and scrub his lawyer's offices to make sure

857
00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:27,160
Speaker 1: none of that sensitive information got leaked further beyond where

858
00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:29,080
Speaker 1: it was sent to the lawyers. That would be a

859
00:51:29,200 --> 00:51:32,240
Speaker 1: remarkable irony. If James Comey, who preached to Hillary Clinton

860
00:51:32,280 --> 00:51:35,800
Speaker 1: but refused to indict her, engage in the same negligent

861
00:51:35,920 --> 00:51:40,520
Speaker 1: handling of classified information as was uncovered in the in

862
00:51:40,600 --> 00:51:43,000
Speaker 1: the Clinton email case, That's what I have for James

863
00:51:43,080 --> 00:51:46,440
Speaker 1: Comey for sure. Okay, Now, the next I think biggest

864
00:51:46,440 --> 00:51:50,000
Speaker 1: and most important group of questions would be and what

865
00:51:50,600 --> 00:51:55,200
Speaker 1: would you ask beyond when did you Robert Muller know

866
00:51:56,280 --> 00:52:00,239
Speaker 1: when did you know that there was no well quote

867
00:52:00,239 --> 00:52:04,680
Speaker 1: the Muller report that the Trump campaign you never established

868
00:52:04,680 --> 00:52:07,480
Speaker 1: the Trump campaign coordinated with the Russian government in their

869
00:52:07,520 --> 00:52:11,040
Speaker 1: election interference activities. When did you know that? What would

870
00:52:11,040 --> 00:52:13,640
Speaker 1: you add to that very important question? I think the

871
00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:16,239
Speaker 1: question you asked in the earlier segments important. Why did

872
00:52:16,280 --> 00:52:19,600
Speaker 1: you hire so many Democrats? Why so many loaded political

873
00:52:19,680 --> 00:52:23,080
Speaker 1: people on your staff? I think from today's column, the

874
00:52:23,160 --> 00:52:26,480
Speaker 1: one that's coming out tonight, did you know that Weisman

875
00:52:26,600 --> 00:52:29,000
Speaker 1: was making this offer to the Russian oligarch and why

876
00:52:29,040 --> 00:52:30,959
Speaker 1: would you make such an offer before you were fully

877
00:52:31,000 --> 00:52:33,400
Speaker 1: read into the case. Here's one of my favorites, and

878
00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:35,839
Speaker 1: it's going to involve something that may come to light

879
00:52:35,920 --> 00:52:39,480
Speaker 1: as early as tomorrow night. Who was Joseph Mifsu the

880
00:52:39,560 --> 00:52:44,360
Speaker 1: professor who approached George Popadappas in the earliest known interaction

881
00:52:44,840 --> 00:52:49,120
Speaker 1: in the Russia collusion fantasy? Who is he and what

882
00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:51,040
Speaker 1: did you learn about him? And did you really do

883
00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:54,440
Speaker 1: a thorough job investigating him? And then one of my favorites,

884
00:52:54,480 --> 00:52:58,840
Speaker 1: if your mandate was to investigate all foreign interference in

885
00:52:58,920 --> 00:53:02,440
Speaker 1: the twenty sixteen Why did you not look at the

886
00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:06,960
Speaker 1: acknowledgement by the Ukraine Embassy in Washington that Hillary Clinton's

887
00:53:07,000 --> 00:53:10,840
Speaker 1: campaign and the Democratic National Committee sought Ukraine's help in

888
00:53:10,920 --> 00:53:13,280
Speaker 1: finding dirt on Donald Trump that he could make public

889
00:53:13,719 --> 00:53:16,640
Speaker 1: during the twenty sixteen election. And why didn't you look

890
00:53:16,680 --> 00:53:20,800
Speaker 1: at the efforts of Ukraine's FPI, in Ukraine's top anti

891
00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:24,640
Speaker 1: corruption lawmaker to publicly put out dirt on Donald Trump

892
00:53:24,760 --> 00:53:28,640
Speaker 1: designed to help him lose the election. Isn't that election interference,

893
00:53:28,719 --> 00:53:31,320
Speaker 1: just like the interference you did not find on Russia.

894
00:53:31,600 --> 00:53:34,000
Speaker 1: Those are all questions that I would ask Bob Muller. Well,

895
00:53:34,000 --> 00:53:36,320
Speaker 1: I would go even a step further to Bob Muller.

896
00:53:36,920 --> 00:53:39,600
Speaker 1: You clearly had a very broad mandate that was given

897
00:53:39,640 --> 00:53:42,879
Speaker 1: to you by Rob Rosenstein. Part of that mandate led

898
00:53:42,960 --> 00:53:48,319
Speaker 1: to investigations into old tax returns farah violations which here

899
00:53:48,360 --> 00:53:51,520
Speaker 1: to four were never really considered big violations. It was like,

900
00:53:51,600 --> 00:53:56,640
Speaker 1: all right, get that up to date, loan applications, tax applications,

901
00:53:56,760 --> 00:54:00,600
Speaker 1: taxi medallions. How is it possible, mister Muller or that

902
00:54:00,719 --> 00:54:03,799
Speaker 1: you put a priority on those items? But you knew

903
00:54:03,880 --> 00:54:07,360
Speaker 1: when did you know about Hillary's bought and paid for

904
00:54:07,840 --> 00:54:11,480
Speaker 1: dirty Russian dossier? Did you know the Russian dossier was

905
00:54:11,560 --> 00:54:16,479
Speaker 1: disseminated before the election into friendly media outlets that asked

906
00:54:16,560 --> 00:54:19,719
Speaker 1: no questions, people like Michael Iizikoff, David Korn and the

907
00:54:19,840 --> 00:54:24,640
Speaker 1: Washington Post. Right, was this, in and of itself Russian

908
00:54:24,760 --> 00:54:28,719
Speaker 1: interference in our elections? Did you investigate who paid for

909
00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:31,240
Speaker 1: the dossier? Did you investigate whether any of the items

910
00:54:31,280 --> 00:54:33,719
Speaker 1: and the dossier were true? Did you not find it

911
00:54:33,800 --> 00:54:37,799
Speaker 1: important that the Trump campaign was spied on based upon

912
00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:41,359
Speaker 1: what is, according to the New York Times, Russian disinformation,

913
00:54:41,760 --> 00:54:45,080
Speaker 1: anything else you did? Those are fantastic questions and I

914
00:54:45,520 --> 00:54:47,319
Speaker 1: and I think you know one of the questions I'd

915
00:54:47,320 --> 00:54:49,040
Speaker 1: ask him if you were a FBI director, if you

916
00:54:49,080 --> 00:54:52,680
Speaker 1: were James Komi, in the summer of twenty sixteen, based

917
00:54:52,719 --> 00:54:55,200
Speaker 1: on the evidence that we now know, the FBI used

918
00:54:55,239 --> 00:54:58,800
Speaker 1: to go to the FISA court, would you yourself have

919
00:54:58,960 --> 00:55:02,480
Speaker 1: signed that FIS knowing that the Steel dossier was uncorroborated,

920
00:55:02,560 --> 00:55:05,520
Speaker 1: and the core allegation for the Steel dossier that they

921
00:55:05,600 --> 00:55:07,839
Speaker 1: put in the FIST application, the one that Carter Page

922
00:55:07,880 --> 00:55:10,120
Speaker 1: met with those two Russians, knowing that that was not

923
00:55:10,360 --> 00:55:14,759
Speaker 1: yet verified, would you have affixed your name to that

924
00:55:15,360 --> 00:55:17,480
Speaker 1: FISA warrant? And I'll point out something that's very interesting.

925
00:55:17,520 --> 00:55:20,440
Speaker 1: A lot of people don't realize this. The last renewal

926
00:55:20,920 --> 00:55:26,239
Speaker 1: of the FISA warrant was issued and requested after Bob

927
00:55:26,360 --> 00:55:30,800
Speaker 1: Muller became special prosecutor in the case, but remarkably, he

928
00:55:30,920 --> 00:55:34,160
Speaker 1: didn't sign his name to it. Rod Rosenstein did, why

929
00:55:34,400 --> 00:55:36,200
Speaker 1: if Muller's in charge of the case and it's now

930
00:55:36,360 --> 00:55:39,440
Speaker 1: his case, why was in his name on that affidavit?

931
00:55:39,520 --> 00:55:42,160
Speaker 1: And was that because he had concerns about what was

932
00:55:43,400 --> 00:55:45,799
Speaker 1: that FISA warrant? I think there's some great questions ask

933
00:55:45,840 --> 00:55:48,080
Speaker 1: about the FIS warrant. He's a man who when he

934
00:55:48,200 --> 00:55:50,759
Speaker 1: was FBI director signed a lot of these. Would if

935
00:55:50,800 --> 00:55:52,920
Speaker 1: he signed his name the same way Comy did, knowing

936
00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:55,520
Speaker 1: what we now know about the case. Well, I think

937
00:55:55,560 --> 00:55:57,320
Speaker 1: the next part of this is did you have a

938
00:55:57,400 --> 00:56:00,520
Speaker 1: conflict of interest the day before you were appointed to

939
00:56:00,960 --> 00:56:05,840
Speaker 1: be the special counsel? Were you not denied by President

940
00:56:05,920 --> 00:56:09,200
Speaker 1: Trump the position of the FBI? And did President Trump

941
00:56:09,320 --> 00:56:12,399
Speaker 1: explain to you why James Comea, your friend, was fired. Yep,

942
00:56:12,640 --> 00:56:15,080
Speaker 1: That's another great question. I mean, listen, if we had

943
00:56:15,160 --> 00:56:17,120
Speaker 1: about Muller for ten days, I don't think we could

944
00:56:17,160 --> 00:56:19,680
Speaker 1: get all the questions in. And that is one of

945
00:56:19,719 --> 00:56:21,880
Speaker 1: the most troubling things. Can you think back to a

946
00:56:22,000 --> 00:56:25,600
Speaker 1: time where such a high profile investigation is now it

947
00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:28,879
Speaker 1: was declared complete after the nine to eleven You think

948
00:56:28,880 --> 00:56:31,320
Speaker 1: of all the big investigations we've had in Washington the

949
00:56:31,440 --> 00:56:35,239
Speaker 1: last quarter of century, Watergate, this investigation left us more

950
00:56:35,320 --> 00:56:39,040
Speaker 1: questions and answers, left us more concerns about the misconduct

951
00:56:39,080 --> 00:56:42,560
Speaker 1: of the investigators and those investigated. It is a very

952
00:56:42,840 --> 00:56:46,120
Speaker 1: difficult investigation. And Mueller's report was supposed to bring clarity

953
00:56:46,160 --> 00:56:49,719
Speaker 1: to this, and instead it brought obfuscation and omission. I

954
00:56:49,840 --> 00:56:51,680
Speaker 1: think that's going to be one of the themes on

955
00:56:51,760 --> 00:56:54,480
Speaker 1: Wednesday that will be very important to listen for. What

956
00:56:54,640 --> 00:56:58,160
Speaker 1: about Article two of the US Constitution? Do you believe

957
00:56:58,280 --> 00:57:02,520
Speaker 1: under Article two, as many famed lawyers and constitutional scholars

958
00:57:02,640 --> 00:57:06,360
Speaker 1: believe that the president had every right to fire you

959
00:57:06,520 --> 00:57:09,200
Speaker 1: if he's so true, if he chose to do so,

960
00:57:09,920 --> 00:57:13,000
Speaker 1: because and the answer would be yes, Well, wouldn't that

961
00:57:13,120 --> 00:57:16,600
Speaker 1: make any charges of the fact that the president at

962
00:57:16,680 --> 00:57:20,360
Speaker 1: times lashed out at the witch hunt, that he still

963
00:57:20,520 --> 00:57:23,800
Speaker 1: had in his power the ability to fire you but didn't.

964
00:57:24,320 --> 00:57:27,560
Speaker 1: Doesn't that speak volumes about his desire not to obstruct

965
00:57:27,600 --> 00:57:32,720
Speaker 1: the investigation. Yeah, and remember a lot of people forget this,

966
00:57:32,880 --> 00:57:35,280
Speaker 1: but when James Coomy was fired, everybody thought that was

967
00:57:35,360 --> 00:57:37,920
Speaker 1: because of Russia. But we learned from the IG report,

968
00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:41,760
Speaker 1: the independent IG Michael Horwitz, a nonpartisan guy, that the

969
00:57:41,840 --> 00:57:45,440
Speaker 1: grounds for firing Coomy were not only not related to Russia,

970
00:57:45,840 --> 00:57:49,880
Speaker 1: they were good grounds. They were solid personnel human resource

971
00:57:49,960 --> 00:57:53,280
Speaker 1: reasons to fire James Coomy. He acted badly in the

972
00:57:53,440 --> 00:57:57,640
Speaker 1: Clinton email case. He violated department rules, he usurped the

973
00:57:57,720 --> 00:58:00,560
Speaker 1: authority of the Attorney General, and therefore he deserved to

974
00:58:00,600 --> 00:58:03,200
Speaker 1: be fired. So if he was fired for legitimate grounds,

975
00:58:03,640 --> 00:58:06,600
Speaker 1: how do you make the obstruction case after an IG

976
00:58:06,800 --> 00:58:09,840
Speaker 1: has already determined that that was a legitimate firing. Those

977
00:58:09,880 --> 00:58:13,000
Speaker 1: are some of the questions that I think we're Democrats fear.

978
00:58:13,480 --> 00:58:15,400
Speaker 1: I think they want to try to control this narrative,

979
00:58:15,440 --> 00:58:17,280
Speaker 1: and I would watch for Democrats to try to cut

980
00:58:17,320 --> 00:58:20,320
Speaker 1: off Republicans on the good questions, try to interfere with that,

981
00:58:20,480 --> 00:58:22,360
Speaker 1: because they have a lot more to lose than to

982
00:58:22,480 --> 00:58:26,400
Speaker 1: gain with Robert Muller's questioning on Wednesday, You see I agreed,

983
00:58:26,480 --> 00:58:28,360
Speaker 1: all right, more with John Solomon on the other side,

984
00:58:28,400 --> 00:58:32,520
Speaker 1: Executive vice president of The Hill, investigative reporter eight hundred

985
00:58:32,520 --> 00:58:36,760
Speaker 1: and nine for one. Shaun is on number all right,

986
00:58:36,800 --> 00:58:39,680
Speaker 1: as we continue, John Solomon with us with his breaking

987
00:58:39,760 --> 00:58:41,520
Speaker 1: news story. We will have more tonight at nine on

988
00:58:41,600 --> 00:58:44,440
Speaker 1: Hannity on the Fox News Channel. He, of course, the

989
00:58:44,480 --> 00:58:47,840
Speaker 1: executive vice president investigative reporter for The Hill. Now, when

990
00:58:47,880 --> 00:58:51,160
Speaker 1: you read Part two of the Mueller report and the

991
00:58:51,720 --> 00:58:54,960
Speaker 1: different examples that it brings up, and they say they

992
00:58:55,040 --> 00:58:58,080
Speaker 1: wouldn't go either way and make in a decision, is

993
00:58:58,120 --> 00:59:02,560
Speaker 1: there anything in that report that you resembles obstruction? Now,

994
00:59:02,720 --> 00:59:06,200
Speaker 1: keeping in the context there's no underlying crime, Muller found

995
00:59:06,320 --> 00:59:10,000
Speaker 1: no underlying crime. He's the fourth separate investigation to find

996
00:59:10,040 --> 00:59:13,680
Speaker 1: no underlying crime. Is a president that ultimately is innocent

997
00:59:13,840 --> 00:59:16,320
Speaker 1: because if you can charge somebody, that means the evidence

998
00:59:16,360 --> 00:59:22,000
Speaker 1: doesn't exist regardless of what you think. Why did you

999
00:59:22,120 --> 00:59:25,920
Speaker 1: contradict yourself on different occasions as to whether Department of

1000
00:59:26,040 --> 00:59:29,840
Speaker 1: Justice policy and the constitution might have prohibited you from

1001
00:59:29,880 --> 00:59:32,560
Speaker 1: indicting a sitting president when you and yourself said earlier

1002
00:59:32,640 --> 00:59:35,200
Speaker 1: and then later that that was not a consideration. Yeah,

1003
00:59:35,240 --> 00:59:38,200
Speaker 1: those are great questions. And if you read the second

1004
00:59:38,400 --> 00:59:41,960
Speaker 1: chapter the second volume of the Muller Report, it is clear,

1005
00:59:42,080 --> 00:59:44,320
Speaker 1: beyond what democrats have been arguing that the only reason

1006
00:59:44,480 --> 00:59:47,640
Speaker 1: Donald Trump got off on obstruction is because there's an opinion,

1007
00:59:47,840 --> 00:59:50,960
Speaker 1: a long, oh old opinion Justice Department that sitting president's

1008
00:59:51,000 --> 00:59:54,240
Speaker 1: champion died. If you really read what Muller wrote, he

1009
00:59:54,400 --> 00:59:58,840
Speaker 1: highlighted many of the problems with an obstruction prosecution, beginning

1010
00:59:58,920 --> 01:00:01,280
Speaker 1: with the fact that motive wasn't there, there was no

1011
01:00:01,440 --> 01:00:05,080
Speaker 1: underlying crime, as he rightly suggested, and in some cases

1012
01:00:05,160 --> 01:00:06,760
Speaker 1: Mother went out of his way to point that what

1013
01:00:07,000 --> 01:00:10,120
Speaker 1: looks like obstruction to Democrats might have simply been a

1014
01:00:10,200 --> 01:00:14,520
Speaker 1: president trying to defend his own presidency from an unnecessary distraction. So,

1015
01:00:14,720 --> 01:00:17,400
Speaker 1: in Muller's own analysis, contrary to what you hear from

1016
01:00:17,400 --> 01:00:19,320
Speaker 1: the DAMS, would you hear an MSNBC, what you hear

1017
01:00:19,360 --> 01:00:22,640
Speaker 1: in the CNN, Muller's side at the natural flaws that

1018
01:00:22,760 --> 01:00:24,920
Speaker 1: he ran into as a prosecutor when he started to

1019
01:00:25,000 --> 01:00:28,560
Speaker 1: look at this obstruction claim. And I think that one

1020
01:00:28,600 --> 01:00:30,880
Speaker 1: of the ones he doesn't mention but may have been

1021
01:00:30,960 --> 01:00:33,800
Speaker 1: the single biggest reason why they didn't bring obstruction charges

1022
01:00:33,800 --> 01:00:36,440
Speaker 1: on the firing of Coomy is that the IG found

1023
01:00:36,520 --> 01:00:39,320
Speaker 1: that the firing was made for real reasons, not for

1024
01:00:39,440 --> 01:00:41,880
Speaker 1: Donald Trump's desire to get rid of James Comby in

1025
01:00:41,880 --> 01:00:47,280
Speaker 1: the Russian investigation, but because the President himself, because the

1026
01:00:47,760 --> 01:00:50,960
Speaker 1: Department itself found James Comi in violation of its policies.

1027
01:00:51,240 --> 01:00:54,200
Speaker 1: And remember one other fingers, that famous Lester Holt interview

1028
01:00:54,240 --> 01:00:57,080
Speaker 1: with all the Democrats always waves saying that's the proof

1029
01:00:57,160 --> 01:01:02,080
Speaker 1: that Trump was going firing Coomy because of Russia. That's

1030
01:01:02,160 --> 01:01:04,600
Speaker 1: not what he said. If you read the whole interview,

1031
01:01:04,640 --> 01:01:06,600
Speaker 1: the part that wasn't put out in publica, you see

1032
01:01:06,640 --> 01:01:09,120
Speaker 1: the President saying I want the Russia investigation to be

1033
01:01:09,240 --> 01:01:12,200
Speaker 1: done well, and James Coomey, because of the way he

1034
01:01:12,360 --> 01:01:14,480
Speaker 1: handled email case, is probably not a guy that's going

1035
01:01:14,520 --> 01:01:16,800
Speaker 1: to do it well. That's basically what the President was saying.

1036
01:01:17,400 --> 01:01:21,000
Speaker 1: He was firing Comy on personnel grounds, not on Russia obstruction.

1037
01:01:21,440 --> 01:01:25,080
Speaker 1: And that's probably the real reason that Bob Muller never

1038
01:01:25,240 --> 01:01:28,040
Speaker 1: pulled the trigger on anything obstruction. All right, John Solomon,

1039
01:01:28,080 --> 01:01:31,280
Speaker 1: we'll have more on this breaking news story. Andrew Weisman.

1040
01:01:31,360 --> 01:01:34,360
Speaker 1: More news also coming from John later this week, as

1041
01:01:34,440 --> 01:01:38,640
Speaker 1: we have the media hype and probably again let down

1042
01:01:38,720 --> 01:01:42,600
Speaker 1: in boomerang on Mueller's testimony on Wednesday. We're looking forward

1043
01:01:42,600 --> 01:01:44,520
Speaker 1: to it, John Solomon, thank you. We'll see it tonight

1044
01:01:44,600 --> 01:01:47,040
Speaker 1: on Hannity when we come back. A lot to get to.

1045
01:01:47,280 --> 01:01:51,720
Speaker 1: We'll look at the media, Russia, Russia collusion, collusion, stormy

1046
01:01:51,880 --> 01:01:57,880
Speaker 1: stormy sholes whole racist, racist. They can't control themselves. It

1047
01:01:58,120 --> 01:02:02,120
Speaker 1: is one feigned more oral outrage after the next. At

1048
01:02:02,240 --> 01:02:05,160
Speaker 1: what point does this boomerang back on them? Well, the

1049
01:02:05,240 --> 01:02:08,080
Speaker 1: answer we already know is not. People don't trust or

1050
01:02:08,120 --> 01:02:10,560
Speaker 1: watch them anymore. That's a big problem or read them

1051
01:02:10,920 --> 01:02:14,320
Speaker 1: quick break right back. We'll continue News Roundup and Information

1052
01:02:14,400 --> 01:02:17,919
Speaker 1: Overload hours next. Stay right here for our final news

1053
01:02:18,040 --> 01:02:22,360
Speaker 1: round up and Information Overload. The President denies his tweets

1054
01:02:22,400 --> 01:02:25,240
Speaker 1: are racist about the racist tweets aimed at them by

1055
01:02:25,280 --> 01:02:28,440
Speaker 1: the President of the United States, but his racist tweets

1056
01:02:28,440 --> 01:02:32,960
Speaker 1: about who should stay in America quickly got all his attention. Not,

1057
01:02:33,120 --> 01:02:36,240
Speaker 1: says Woodrow Wilson showed birth of a nation in the

1058
01:02:36,320 --> 01:02:39,920
Speaker 1: White House. Has an American president so flagrant in his

1059
01:02:40,120 --> 01:02:44,600
Speaker 1: racial messaging as this one. Today, President Trump amplified his

1060
01:02:44,720 --> 01:02:47,640
Speaker 1: language on race from a dog whistle to a bugle

1061
01:02:47,760 --> 01:02:51,960
Speaker 1: hawk call, driving home his inflammatory and racist attacks on

1062
01:02:52,160 --> 01:02:55,680
Speaker 1: four Democratic congresswoman of color. And this feels like the

1063
01:02:55,760 --> 01:03:00,280
Speaker 1: President really owning the idea that he's say things that

1064
01:03:00,280 --> 01:03:03,000
Speaker 1: are attractive to white nationalists and racist. He has joined

1065
01:03:03,120 --> 01:03:07,640
Speaker 1: Andrew Johnson as the most racist president in American history.

1066
01:03:07,840 --> 01:03:10,280
Speaker 1: Take up today, the question is what do you call

1067
01:03:10,400 --> 01:03:14,800
Speaker 1: someone who says nearly racist things this morning? The answer is,

1068
01:03:15,480 --> 01:03:18,720
Speaker 1: mister president, let me be very clear about this. What

1069
01:03:18,920 --> 01:03:21,520
Speaker 1: he said reminds me of what I might hear out

1070
01:03:21,560 --> 01:03:24,360
Speaker 1: of a clan rally. He's a racist. We've known for

1071
01:03:24,440 --> 01:03:26,520
Speaker 1: a long time that he is a racist. And go

1072
01:03:26,720 --> 01:03:29,280
Speaker 1: back to where you came from, as it's pete racism,

1073
01:03:29,360 --> 01:03:33,360
Speaker 1: it's proto racism, it's you know, the original form of racism.

1074
01:03:34,440 --> 01:03:37,640
Speaker 1: So we're at a point where Trump is more racist

1075
01:03:38,120 --> 01:03:41,680
Speaker 1: than neo Nazi. President Trump today denying that his racist

1076
01:03:41,800 --> 01:03:44,720
Speaker 1: tweets were racist. But first we want to start with

1077
01:03:44,920 --> 01:03:47,840
Speaker 1: this week in Russia. Gay it is as if there

1078
01:03:47,960 --> 01:03:51,680
Speaker 1: are no shoes on the Trump human centipede that are

1079
01:03:51,840 --> 01:03:57,120
Speaker 1: not about Russia. Russia, Russia, Russia. It does look like collusion.

1080
01:03:57,520 --> 01:04:00,200
Speaker 1: It does look like he's listening to putin more than

1081
01:04:00,280 --> 01:04:04,200
Speaker 1: the American intelligence And frankly, I've never seen that before.

1082
01:04:04,880 --> 01:04:08,960
Speaker 1: This could be the last nail in the coffince. What me, Daniels?

1083
01:04:09,520 --> 01:04:12,920
Speaker 1: It's causing? Stormy Weather born star Stormy Daniels claims President

1084
01:04:12,960 --> 01:04:16,280
Speaker 1: Trump broke the law, had or bullied. Does Stormy Daniels

1085
01:04:16,360 --> 01:04:19,600
Speaker 1: have the President's number? It sure seems that way. President

1086
01:04:19,640 --> 01:04:22,880
Speaker 1: Trump might have met his match with Stormy Daniels. How

1087
01:04:23,040 --> 01:04:27,320
Speaker 1: is Stormy weathering? This Stormy speaks. It's not clear what

1088
01:04:27,520 --> 01:04:30,880
Speaker 1: he meant by old countries? Are you shocked or surprised

1089
01:04:30,920 --> 01:04:34,520
Speaker 1: by this? I'm not surprised in one way. I'm proud.

1090
01:04:34,880 --> 01:04:38,600
Speaker 1: I am a proud bowler. No, we are not all

1091
01:04:38,720 --> 01:04:41,040
Speaker 1: created equal, at least not if you were born in

1092
01:04:41,160 --> 01:04:44,320
Speaker 1: as the President put it, a whole country the word

1093
01:04:44,520 --> 01:04:49,600
Speaker 1: house instead of whole, as in house countries, not whole countries.

1094
01:04:49,720 --> 01:04:52,120
Speaker 1: I guess he's a bowler. Is there a difference if

1095
01:04:52,160 --> 01:04:56,400
Speaker 1: the President said house? Aren't you glad you with us?

1096
01:04:56,400 --> 01:04:59,120
Speaker 1: Snooze round up information overthown hours? We go back to

1097
01:04:59,160 --> 01:05:01,520
Speaker 1: one of our top store today, and that is your

1098
01:05:02,120 --> 01:05:07,880
Speaker 1: corrupt media mob. It is Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia.

1099
01:05:07,880 --> 01:05:09,560
Speaker 1: And Peach and Peach and Peach and Peach and Peach

1100
01:05:09,600 --> 01:05:14,960
Speaker 1: and Peach and Peach. Collusion, collusion, collusion, collusion, collusion, stormy stormy,

1101
01:05:15,120 --> 01:05:22,800
Speaker 1: stormy shole, sholoshole. Now thousands of racist racist racist racist

1102
01:05:23,000 --> 01:05:27,440
Speaker 1: racist and the president, well, if you look at the

1103
01:05:27,840 --> 01:05:32,760
Speaker 1: squad that now is pretty much in full allegiance alliance

1104
01:05:32,920 --> 01:05:37,160
Speaker 1: and runs the Democratic Party. Let's see, they're comparing America

1105
01:05:37,240 --> 01:05:43,840
Speaker 1: to having concentration camps. We have virulent anti Semitic remarks

1106
01:05:44,000 --> 01:05:49,400
Speaker 1: all about the Benjamin's boycott Israel, just like we would

1107
01:05:49,520 --> 01:05:56,200
Speaker 1: boycott Nazi Germany. Another example, um blame America and our

1108
01:05:56,280 --> 01:06:01,040
Speaker 1: actions for terrorists attacks that happen in a Kenyon mall,

1109
01:06:01,760 --> 01:06:05,920
Speaker 1: and the media is unimpressed. Never mind the positions that

1110
01:06:06,000 --> 01:06:10,840
Speaker 1: would eliminate oil gas. Everything's free cows because of flatulens

1111
01:06:11,080 --> 01:06:16,080
Speaker 1: and airplanes and substance and talking down the country. Because

1112
01:06:16,160 --> 01:06:19,640
Speaker 1: understand when they say that America is the same as

1113
01:06:20,000 --> 01:06:26,400
Speaker 1: these detention centers that provide food, water, medicine supplies, baby formula, cots,

1114
01:06:26,480 --> 01:06:31,360
Speaker 1: blankets and pillows. Not ideal, but it did happen in

1115
01:06:31,480 --> 01:06:34,400
Speaker 1: the Obama years. It did happen in the Bush years,

1116
01:06:34,440 --> 01:06:36,720
Speaker 1: and the only person that has lifted a pen to

1117
01:06:36,920 --> 01:06:40,280
Speaker 1: fix it was Donald Trump. But it is what they

1118
01:06:40,360 --> 01:06:43,360
Speaker 1: can hold on to cling onto. Now by later in

1119
01:06:43,400 --> 01:06:46,040
Speaker 1: the week, they will be clinging onto in the media

1120
01:06:46,120 --> 01:06:50,360
Speaker 1: mob anything and everything that they can. As it relates

1121
01:06:50,400 --> 01:06:53,960
Speaker 1: to Robert Muller, that is just to be anticipated anyway,

1122
01:06:54,280 --> 01:06:57,560
Speaker 1: joining us now, Joe Conscha, calumnist for The Hill radio

1123
01:06:57,600 --> 01:07:01,560
Speaker 1: host w R affiliate in New York, and a lot

1124
01:07:01,760 --> 01:07:04,520
Speaker 1: by the way, not much coverage of let's see British

1125
01:07:04,640 --> 01:07:10,560
Speaker 1: tankers that were taken hostage by the Iranian Revolutionary Guard.

1126
01:07:10,680 --> 01:07:13,200
Speaker 1: That that second place, you know, I go back. I

1127
01:07:13,360 --> 01:07:15,800
Speaker 1: never I'd never forget older. In the Obama years, it

1128
01:07:15,960 --> 01:07:19,400
Speaker 1: was you know, the Chris Matthews crowd, the MSDNC crowd,

1129
01:07:19,760 --> 01:07:24,959
Speaker 1: the Roswell Rachel crowd, the conspiracy hoaxers, you know, all

1130
01:07:25,160 --> 01:07:28,960
Speaker 1: saying dog whistle. Everything was anybody that disagreed with Obama,

1131
01:07:29,240 --> 01:07:32,320
Speaker 1: dog whistle. You know, we have a hit. How could

1132
01:07:32,360 --> 01:07:34,840
Speaker 1: this ever happen? It there's a decision that has been

1133
01:07:34,880 --> 01:07:38,320
Speaker 1: made to play the race card. Um, I've got a

1134
01:07:38,360 --> 01:07:40,640
Speaker 1: whole history that I'll get to this half hour of

1135
01:07:40,720 --> 01:07:44,160
Speaker 1: the Democratic Party every two and four years. They use

1136
01:07:44,280 --> 01:07:47,320
Speaker 1: it as their strategy to play the race card. Now

1137
01:07:47,360 --> 01:07:52,800
Speaker 1: their policies don't do particularly well. Those disproportionately negatively impacted

1138
01:07:52,880 --> 01:07:56,840
Speaker 1: by the Biden Obama years, especially in the economy, were

1139
01:07:56,920 --> 01:08:00,600
Speaker 1: minorities in America. Those that have now disproportion orally in

1140
01:08:00,760 --> 01:08:06,160
Speaker 1: a good way, been positively impacted by the policies of deregulation,

1141
01:08:06,360 --> 01:08:11,440
Speaker 1: lower taxes, job creation, incentivizing companies to build here America. First.

1142
01:08:11,560 --> 01:08:14,320
Speaker 1: Controlling the borders happened to be while we have record

1143
01:08:14,400 --> 01:08:19,280
Speaker 1: low unemployment for African Americans, Hispanic Americans, Asian Americans, women

1144
01:08:19,360 --> 01:08:22,920
Speaker 1: in the workplace, and youth unemployment. But I guess results

1145
01:08:23,120 --> 01:08:27,439
Speaker 1: don't mean a thing in this rhetorical battle. Joe Kanscha

1146
01:08:27,560 --> 01:08:31,720
Speaker 1: analyzes all of this now for a living about how

1147
01:08:31,760 --> 01:08:34,120
Speaker 1: many times do we have account yet? I know its

1148
01:08:34,760 --> 01:08:38,320
Speaker 1: thousands of how many times the media Democrats have said

1149
01:08:38,520 --> 01:08:41,880
Speaker 1: racist in the last week we had Sean and thanks

1150
01:08:41,920 --> 01:08:44,360
Speaker 1: for having me on. Let's see, it was from Sunday

1151
01:08:44,439 --> 01:08:48,679
Speaker 1: to last Tuesday that not the media, just two networks

1152
01:08:48,720 --> 01:08:53,640
Speaker 1: CNN MSNBC said the word racist eleven hundred times in

1153
01:08:53,680 --> 01:08:56,360
Speaker 1: the span of forty eight hours. That's almost physically or

1154
01:08:56,400 --> 01:08:59,720
Speaker 1: mathematically impossible to You would have to literally say it

1155
01:08:59,800 --> 01:09:02,600
Speaker 1: like every seven words or something. Right, So what is

1156
01:09:02,640 --> 01:09:04,320
Speaker 1: it up to now? I don't have a more recent

1157
01:09:04,400 --> 01:09:07,000
Speaker 1: count of everything I've seen. Probably tells me that if

1158
01:09:07,040 --> 01:09:10,160
Speaker 1: we're seven days out from last Sunday, eight days out,

1159
01:09:10,240 --> 01:09:13,000
Speaker 1: it's probably up around ten thousand times just on those

1160
01:09:13,040 --> 01:09:16,120
Speaker 1: two networks alone. And you know we've all read the book.

1161
01:09:16,160 --> 01:09:18,679
Speaker 1: It's called The Boy Who Cried Wolf. It's the media

1162
01:09:18,880 --> 01:09:21,120
Speaker 1: that cried wolf. Now, and if you keep saying this

1163
01:09:21,280 --> 01:09:23,280
Speaker 1: word over and over again, I don't know. I'm just

1164
01:09:23,320 --> 01:09:26,400
Speaker 1: spitballing here, Sean, but I'm pretty sure it loses its impact.

1165
01:09:26,479 --> 01:09:29,240
Speaker 1: In other words, everybody's numb by it has no meaning anymore.

1166
01:09:29,360 --> 01:09:32,760
Speaker 1: Everybody's a racist. Think about it. If you're pro ice agent,

1167
01:09:32,880 --> 01:09:37,480
Speaker 1: you're a racist. Right. If you maybe are against reparations

1168
01:09:37,600 --> 01:09:40,960
Speaker 1: for slavery, therefore you're a racist. Maybe you just disagree

1169
01:09:41,000 --> 01:09:42,519
Speaker 1: with the policy. Maybe you say, hey, that's the wrong

1170
01:09:42,600 --> 01:09:44,639
Speaker 1: way to go about this. No, no matter doesn't matter

1171
01:09:44,840 --> 01:09:47,080
Speaker 1: what your argument is, it always goes back to who

1172
01:09:47,360 --> 01:09:50,400
Speaker 1: the person is. Are they bad or good? Are they racist? Remember,

1173
01:09:50,479 --> 01:09:54,080
Speaker 1: even this isn't just Donald Trump, Mitt Romney right as

1174
01:09:54,200 --> 01:09:56,720
Speaker 1: milktoast as it comes, who really really try to get

1175
01:09:56,760 --> 01:09:58,880
Speaker 1: along with the media, improved to everybody's a nice guy?

1176
01:09:59,160 --> 01:10:01,160
Speaker 1: And what did Joe b in the current twenty twenty

1177
01:10:01,200 --> 01:10:03,760
Speaker 1: Democratic front runners say, said, y'all, he's gonna put you

1178
01:10:03,840 --> 01:10:06,559
Speaker 1: all back in change? John McCain that compared to running

1179
01:10:06,600 --> 01:10:10,320
Speaker 1: a campaign that was an equivalent to George Wallace. It

1180
01:10:10,400 --> 01:10:13,720
Speaker 1: doesn't matter what kind of Republican you are. George W. Bush. Oh,

1181
01:10:13,760 --> 01:10:16,160
Speaker 1: he didn't respond to Katrina properly because he doesn't like

1182
01:10:16,240 --> 01:10:18,600
Speaker 1: black people. I mean, it's it doesn't matter you have

1183
01:10:18,640 --> 01:10:21,160
Speaker 1: an R next your name, you're automatically a racist. And

1184
01:10:21,479 --> 01:10:23,519
Speaker 1: it could be Trump, it could be Bush. It does

1185
01:10:23,680 --> 01:10:26,759
Speaker 1: not matter. Sean. Those are all, you know, great examples,

1186
01:10:26,880 --> 01:10:28,600
Speaker 1: but you're right. I mean, Mitt Romney, I think, is

1187
01:10:28,640 --> 01:10:30,880
Speaker 1: the perfect case in point one point I've made in

1188
01:10:31,000 --> 01:10:33,160
Speaker 1: my own way, and that is that Mitt Romney is

1189
01:10:33,160 --> 01:10:36,599
Speaker 1: a nice guy. His family, they're nice people. Mitt Romney

1190
01:10:36,800 --> 01:10:41,439
Speaker 1: doesn't like the style, certainly of Donald Trump. Mitt Romney

1191
01:10:41,520 --> 01:10:44,160
Speaker 1: tried to be nice, tried to be liked. John McCain

1192
01:10:44,640 --> 01:10:48,560
Speaker 1: was loved by the media, except what he ran for president.

1193
01:10:48,720 --> 01:10:52,519
Speaker 1: They all slandered him. They made sure that they would

1194
01:10:52,600 --> 01:10:55,240
Speaker 1: say and do anything and everything to make sure that

1195
01:10:55,320 --> 01:10:58,840
Speaker 1: he loses. And then he passes away. Then they're back

1196
01:10:58,920 --> 01:11:01,280
Speaker 1: to liking him again. Or when he's bashing Trumph, then

1197
01:11:01,320 --> 01:11:05,360
Speaker 1: they really liked him prior to two is passing away.

1198
01:11:06,720 --> 01:11:10,840
Speaker 1: It's it's fascinating, and it's a it's started out is

1199
01:11:11,000 --> 01:11:14,639
Speaker 1: something every two and four years a radio ad in Missouri.

1200
01:11:14,880 --> 01:11:18,840
Speaker 1: Black churches are gonna burn the James Bird ad in

1201
01:11:18,920 --> 01:11:21,720
Speaker 1: two thousand. It was like my father was killed all

1202
01:11:21,920 --> 01:11:25,160
Speaker 1: over again. And it goes on from there. I got

1203
01:11:25,200 --> 01:11:28,479
Speaker 1: some examples. Let's play a couple many Republicans talking coded

1204
01:11:28,640 --> 01:11:33,040
Speaker 1: racial language about takers and losers. They demonize President Obama

1205
01:11:33,200 --> 01:11:38,200
Speaker 1: and encourage the ugliest impulses of the paranoid fringe. If

1206
01:11:38,280 --> 01:11:44,439
Speaker 1: you'll accept the support of clan sympathizers before you are president,

1207
01:11:44,960 --> 01:11:49,840
Speaker 1: you will accept their support after your president. He's gonna

1208
01:11:49,840 --> 01:11:52,280
Speaker 1: at the big banks once again write their own rules,

1209
01:11:53,120 --> 01:11:59,920
Speaker 1: unchained Wall Street. You're gonna put y'all back in change.

1210
01:12:00,280 --> 01:12:03,040
Speaker 1: It's wrong what the leader of the Republican Party and

1211
01:12:03,200 --> 01:12:08,280
Speaker 1: this Congress are doing in blocking an accurate census because

1212
01:12:08,360 --> 01:12:11,519
Speaker 1: they don't want to count everyone that they don't think

1213
01:12:11,560 --> 01:12:15,759
Speaker 1: they can count on. They are in favor of affirmative action.

1214
01:12:16,080 --> 01:12:19,000
Speaker 1: If you can dump the basketball or sink a three

1215
01:12:19,040 --> 01:12:22,920
Speaker 1: point shot, but they're not in favor of it. If

1216
01:12:22,960 --> 01:12:25,760
Speaker 1: you merely have the potential to be a leader in

1217
01:12:25,840 --> 01:12:29,000
Speaker 1: your community and bring people together, don't tell me we've

1218
01:12:29,080 --> 01:12:32,439
Speaker 1: got a color blind society. June seven, nineteen ninety eight,

1219
01:12:32,600 --> 01:12:36,160
Speaker 1: in Texas, my father was killed. He was beaten, chained,

1220
01:12:36,280 --> 01:12:40,600
Speaker 1: and drag greenmouse Tuesday, all because he was black. So

1221
01:12:40,760 --> 01:12:44,680
Speaker 1: when Governor George W. Bush refused to support hate crimes legislation,

1222
01:12:45,360 --> 01:12:47,960
Speaker 1: it was like my father was killed all over again.

1223
01:12:48,080 --> 01:12:53,840
Speaker 1: When you don't vote, you let another church explode. When

1224
01:12:53,920 --> 01:12:59,280
Speaker 1: you don't vote, you allow another cross to burn. Right,

1225
01:12:59,320 --> 01:13:02,040
Speaker 1: quick break, we'll come back more Joe Concha on the

1226
01:13:02,240 --> 01:13:07,040
Speaker 1: other side. Then, Shary Murray is running against AOC. We'll

1227
01:13:07,120 --> 01:13:10,240
Speaker 1: talk to her right as we continue with Joe Concha,

1228
01:13:10,320 --> 01:13:13,439
Speaker 1: columnist for The Hill. He is a radio host on

1229
01:13:13,960 --> 01:13:20,800
Speaker 1: w R New York. Imagine Joe Concha. If Donald Trump

1230
01:13:20,920 --> 01:13:28,200
Speaker 1: said his mentor was Jay William Fulbright, known segregationist. Imagine

1231
01:13:28,400 --> 01:13:32,840
Speaker 1: if Donald Trump said that his mentor was Robert Byrd,

1232
01:13:32,920 --> 01:13:39,679
Speaker 1: the former Klansman. Imagine just for a second here, if

1233
01:13:39,960 --> 01:13:43,240
Speaker 1: Donald Trump had said any of the things we just

1234
01:13:43,479 --> 01:13:47,479
Speaker 1: played here, this happens. You know, one person asked, well,

1235
01:13:47,520 --> 01:13:51,240
Speaker 1: how is it possible that they're making a decision to

1236
01:13:51,439 --> 01:13:54,400
Speaker 1: use racial divide in politics? Well? What is that that

1237
01:13:54,520 --> 01:13:58,519
Speaker 1: we just played there, and predictably happens every election cycled

1238
01:13:58,600 --> 01:14:02,160
Speaker 1: Joe Concha. Yeah, and those are from other elections where

1239
01:14:02,520 --> 01:14:05,640
Speaker 1: Donald Trump wasn't involved. And we saw twenty sixteen and

1240
01:14:06,120 --> 01:14:09,840
Speaker 1: that was pretty ugly. You know, remember from a media perspective, anyway, Sean,

1241
01:14:10,160 --> 01:14:15,320
Speaker 1: that access Hollywood tape somehow escapes NBC under locking key

1242
01:14:15,400 --> 01:14:17,479
Speaker 1: and ends up in the Washington Post two days before

1243
01:14:17,800 --> 01:14:21,000
Speaker 1: a key presidential debate, Right, and how did that happen?

1244
01:14:21,520 --> 01:14:23,040
Speaker 1: I always look back at that and say, why was

1245
01:14:23,040 --> 01:14:25,479
Speaker 1: it an investigation done? Who pulled the trigger on that?

1246
01:14:25,600 --> 01:14:28,040
Speaker 1: To make sure that Donald Trump any other candidate would

1247
01:14:28,040 --> 01:14:30,000
Speaker 1: have been roadkill at that point? And I think that's

1248
01:14:30,560 --> 01:14:32,880
Speaker 1: Trump's strategy at this point, Sean, the president says, you

1249
01:14:32,920 --> 01:14:35,400
Speaker 1: know what if I play nice like Romney did, or

1250
01:14:35,479 --> 01:14:37,720
Speaker 1: try to get along like McCain did, I'm going to

1251
01:14:37,800 --> 01:14:40,120
Speaker 1: get run over too. I got a hit back twice

1252
01:14:40,160 --> 01:14:42,840
Speaker 1: as hard as I'm getting hit, I cannot play nice.

1253
01:14:43,040 --> 01:14:45,679
Speaker 1: This will not be a civil election any way, shape

1254
01:14:45,760 --> 01:14:47,840
Speaker 1: or Forman don't hand me this whole thing that. Oh well,

1255
01:14:47,880 --> 01:14:50,799
Speaker 1: if Biden runs, at least he's civil. At least he's moderate.

1256
01:14:51,040 --> 01:14:53,000
Speaker 1: All I know is he told Al Sharpton just a

1257
01:14:53,080 --> 01:14:55,160
Speaker 1: couple of years ago when he was when he was

1258
01:14:55,240 --> 01:14:58,519
Speaker 1: running alongside of Barack Obama, he was asked, why do

1259
01:14:58,600 --> 01:15:01,679
Speaker 1: you think Republicans are against her id laws? And he said, quote,

1260
01:15:01,920 --> 01:15:05,320
Speaker 1: they don't want Black's voting. I mean, that's the type

1261
01:15:05,360 --> 01:15:07,240
Speaker 1: of stuff that should be called out by our media,

1262
01:15:07,439 --> 01:15:10,599
Speaker 1: but of course they can't. Or even with Elon Omar right,

1263
01:15:10,800 --> 01:15:12,560
Speaker 1: the things that she said, how many times have you

1264
01:15:12,680 --> 01:15:15,479
Speaker 1: seen in media reports over the last week or two

1265
01:15:15,600 --> 01:15:19,240
Speaker 1: during this whole controversy, has anybody mentioned her saying this quote,

1266
01:15:19,560 --> 01:15:23,719
Speaker 1: Israel has hypnotized the world may allow awaken the people

1267
01:15:23,800 --> 01:15:26,320
Speaker 1: and help them see the evil doings of Israel. How

1268
01:15:26,400 --> 01:15:28,479
Speaker 1: many times has that been mentioned? Now she sits down

1269
01:15:28,520 --> 01:15:31,240
Speaker 1: with Gail King, and I thought I was hoping would

1270
01:15:31,240 --> 01:15:33,280
Speaker 1: do somewhat of a tough interview. Of course not. She

1271
01:15:33,400 --> 01:15:35,519
Speaker 1: walks out and says, oh, they all love the country,

1272
01:15:35,560 --> 01:15:37,960
Speaker 1: and didn't really ask any tough questions. No one read

1273
01:15:38,040 --> 01:15:40,280
Speaker 1: that quote back to Omar. No one says back to

1274
01:15:40,320 --> 01:15:44,479
Speaker 1: Alexandria Cosco Cortez, you called America garbage. How do you

1275
01:15:44,560 --> 01:15:46,240
Speaker 1: define that? Why do you think then? What do you

1276
01:15:46,320 --> 01:15:48,320
Speaker 1: think you can do to fix it? I never see

1277
01:15:48,360 --> 01:15:50,720
Speaker 1: these questions because they're worried about never getting access to

1278
01:15:50,840 --> 01:15:53,080
Speaker 1: these folks again. And isn't that a shame that that's

1279
01:15:53,120 --> 01:15:55,000
Speaker 1: the game we're playing at this point. Oh, it's also

1280
01:15:55,120 --> 01:16:00,280
Speaker 1: all about the Benjamin's. It's comparing numerous comparisons. AOC is

1281
01:16:00,320 --> 01:16:04,880
Speaker 1: one of them, to America to Nazi Germany. And of

1282
01:16:05,000 --> 01:16:08,640
Speaker 1: course the same with Omark, you know, claiming that boycotting

1283
01:16:08,760 --> 01:16:13,040
Speaker 1: Israel as a kin to boycotting the Nazis back in

1284
01:16:13,160 --> 01:16:16,960
Speaker 1: World War Two, And I'm like, no, there's no equivalent

1285
01:16:17,120 --> 01:16:21,240
Speaker 1: at all. Zero none. Get to a library sometime, read

1286
01:16:21,320 --> 01:16:24,839
Speaker 1: some books about the Holocaust where people from for starters,

1287
01:16:25,160 --> 01:16:28,840
Speaker 1: those going to these migrant facilities along the US southern border,

1288
01:16:28,920 --> 01:16:31,880
Speaker 1: which you mentioned. People down there are doing everything they

1289
01:16:31,960 --> 01:16:34,759
Speaker 1: get they can to keep these people as comfortable as possible.

1290
01:16:35,479 --> 01:16:38,600
Speaker 1: In Nazi Germany, they were thrown on trains, bought the

1291
01:16:38,680 --> 01:16:41,280
Speaker 1: concentration camps and they weren't killed right away. They were

1292
01:16:41,400 --> 01:16:44,000
Speaker 1: worked until they couldn't be productive anymore on something like

1293
01:16:44,080 --> 01:16:47,200
Speaker 1: four hundred calories a day. And you're gonna make that comparison.

1294
01:16:47,400 --> 01:16:50,519
Speaker 1: That should be a game ender for an Alexander Accasio Cortez. Instead,

1295
01:16:50,680 --> 01:16:53,920
Speaker 1: she just keeps getting interview after interview, softball after softball,

1296
01:16:54,080 --> 01:16:55,640
Speaker 1: and she knows it. And that's why she knows she

1297
01:16:55,640 --> 01:16:57,559
Speaker 1: could keep getting away with it because she's never going

1298
01:16:57,600 --> 01:17:00,560
Speaker 1: to be challenged by anyone almost in this media, and

1299
01:17:00,560 --> 01:17:02,599
Speaker 1: then she stays away from anybody would actually ask any

1300
01:17:02,640 --> 01:17:06,160
Speaker 1: tough questions. So, look, she has to run for off

1301
01:17:06,360 --> 01:17:08,800
Speaker 1: again in twenty twenty. She's getting primary by a couple

1302
01:17:08,800 --> 01:17:10,839
Speaker 1: of people right now. I know people in her district.

1303
01:17:11,040 --> 01:17:14,000
Speaker 1: They absolutely do not like say she's making all about

1304
01:17:14,080 --> 01:17:17,360
Speaker 1: her and not helping the constituents of the fourteenth District

1305
01:17:17,400 --> 01:17:19,240
Speaker 1: of New York. Well, one of those people that will

1306
01:17:19,280 --> 01:17:21,400
Speaker 1: be challenging her is a woman by the name of

1307
01:17:21,479 --> 01:17:24,280
Speaker 1: Shari Murray, and she's going to join us coming up

1308
01:17:24,320 --> 01:17:28,320
Speaker 1: in the next half hour. Perfect Joe Concha, the perfect setup.

1309
01:17:28,360 --> 01:17:31,400
Speaker 1: And then Joe Conscha comes on WR and New York

1310
01:17:31,439 --> 01:17:34,880
Speaker 1: after that. How great is that? Perfect? Thank you? He

1311
01:17:34,920 --> 01:17:37,559
Speaker 1: gets good ratings, so he makes me look good. Okay

1312
01:17:38,040 --> 01:17:40,519
Speaker 1: eight hundred nine four one, Sean Tolfree telephone number. You

1313
01:17:40,560 --> 01:17:42,120
Speaker 1: want to be a part of the program, Quick break,

1314
01:17:42,600 --> 01:17:45,719
Speaker 1: We'll come back, We'll continue. We got an amazing Hannity tonight,

1315
01:17:46,280 --> 01:17:52,479
Speaker 1: nine Eastern on the Fox News Channel. Bridges they fill

1316
01:17:52,600 --> 01:17:57,559
Speaker 1: our skyline, rising above our city. Their arches are more

1317
01:17:57,600 --> 01:18:01,479
Speaker 1: than stone and steel. They can nect us. They help

1318
01:18:01,600 --> 01:18:05,519
Speaker 1: us move forward and cross from place to place. That's

1319
01:18:05,600 --> 01:18:09,000
Speaker 1: why we build bridges to be connected to one another.

1320
01:18:10,920 --> 01:18:13,840
Speaker 1: I'm Sharie Murray. I was nine years old when I

1321
01:18:13,920 --> 01:18:17,719
Speaker 1: came to America with my family. We migrated from Jamaica.

1322
01:18:18,439 --> 01:18:20,560
Speaker 1: From my first job working as an intern at the

1323
01:18:20,600 --> 01:18:24,720
Speaker 1: New York City MTA Jamaica Bus Depot, to attending City University,

1324
01:18:25,120 --> 01:18:28,080
Speaker 1: then opening a business and helping minority men and women

1325
01:18:28,320 --> 01:18:32,320
Speaker 1: find employment in the media, to becoming a mother and

1326
01:18:32,520 --> 01:18:36,280
Speaker 1: a community leader. I've been building bridges and crossing them

1327
01:18:36,720 --> 01:18:42,240
Speaker 1: my whole life. I've built bridges between constituents in our

1328
01:18:42,320 --> 01:18:47,160
Speaker 1: community and elected officials that represent them, between different nationalities

1329
01:18:47,200 --> 01:18:51,840
Speaker 1: and races, and between political parties. Lawmakers should be working

1330
01:18:51,920 --> 01:18:55,800
Speaker 1: together to build a stronger, safer, more prosperous America, but

1331
01:18:55,960 --> 01:19:00,599
Speaker 1: your representative in Washington chooses self promotion over service, conflict

1332
01:19:00,680 --> 01:19:05,400
Speaker 1: over constituents, resistance over assistance. Queens and the Bronx need

1333
01:19:05,479 --> 01:19:08,360
Speaker 1: someone who will create jobs instead of turning them away.

1334
01:19:12,560 --> 01:19:15,960
Speaker 1: Someone to unite the fight in Washington and help you

1335
01:19:16,120 --> 01:19:19,000
Speaker 1: build a bridge to a better future for yourself instead

1336
01:19:19,000 --> 01:19:23,439
Speaker 1: of pushing for a pay raise for herself. You deserve

1337
01:19:23,560 --> 01:19:26,840
Speaker 1: someone fighting for you, not fighting for the limelighte. You

1338
01:19:26,960 --> 01:19:31,320
Speaker 1: deserve someone who will focus on immigration, infrastructure, and education.

1339
01:19:31,640 --> 01:19:35,000
Speaker 1: That's why I'm running for Congress. I believe bridges are

1340
01:19:35,000 --> 01:19:38,479
Speaker 1: about connecting us, bringing people together, and getting us to

1341
01:19:38,640 --> 01:19:41,840
Speaker 1: where we need to go. Join me. Let's unite the

1342
01:19:41,960 --> 01:19:46,519
Speaker 1: fight and build new bridges together, bridges that will unite

1343
01:19:46,640 --> 01:19:49,600
Speaker 1: us and take us to a brighter future for the

1344
01:19:49,760 --> 01:19:54,120
Speaker 1: next generation. I'm Sharie Murray and I approve this message,

1345
01:19:54,520 --> 01:19:57,960
Speaker 1: all right. Sharie Murray is now announced. She announced on

1346
01:19:58,080 --> 01:20:00,680
Speaker 1: Hannity the other night that she is is running for

1347
01:20:01,200 --> 01:20:04,439
Speaker 1: the seat of well the real Speaker of the House,

1348
01:20:04,720 --> 01:20:08,400
Speaker 1: and that would be Alexandria Cossio Cortez Pelosi, Speaker in

1349
01:20:08,520 --> 01:20:10,560
Speaker 1: name only, by the way, you dumb people in the

1350
01:20:10,640 --> 01:20:12,760
Speaker 1: media and there's so many of you, you know, you're

1351
01:20:12,800 --> 01:20:16,040
Speaker 1: out there say Hannity is spreading a conspiracy theory. He's

1352
01:20:16,080 --> 01:20:21,040
Speaker 1: saying that that something happened, and the real speakers Acasio Cortez,

1353
01:20:21,320 --> 01:20:25,040
Speaker 1: that she's already speaker. And I'm like, you people are

1354
01:20:25,080 --> 01:20:29,080
Speaker 1: so dumb. I'm saying the people that have the most influence,

1355
01:20:29,680 --> 01:20:34,320
Speaker 1: the people that are impacting the minds and policies of

1356
01:20:34,479 --> 01:20:39,680
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty Democratic presidential hopefuls, that would be the

1357
01:20:39,840 --> 01:20:44,599
Speaker 1: squad led by the New Green Deal herself Actio Cortez. Now,

1358
01:20:45,160 --> 01:20:48,080
Speaker 1: before we get to Shari Murray, let's play a little

1359
01:20:48,160 --> 01:20:50,720
Speaker 1: bit of the hits just to remind you of some

1360
01:20:50,920 --> 01:20:55,680
Speaker 1: of the well incredibly well, let's just say, controversial ideas

1361
01:20:55,960 --> 01:20:59,080
Speaker 1: of Acasio Cortez. The world is going to end in

1362
01:20:59,160 --> 01:21:02,160
Speaker 1: twelve years if an address climate change, and your biggest

1363
01:21:02,280 --> 01:21:09,280
Speaker 1: issue is your biggest issue is how are we going

1364
01:21:09,320 --> 01:21:11,639
Speaker 1: to pay for it? How many years until the world

1365
01:21:11,840 --> 01:21:16,160
Speaker 1: end again? We have twelve years left to cut emissions

1366
01:21:17,200 --> 01:21:21,560
Speaker 1: by at least fifty percent, if not warm Medicare for

1367
01:21:21,720 --> 01:21:25,960
Speaker 1: all would save the American people a very large amount

1368
01:21:25,960 --> 01:21:29,519
Speaker 1: of money. Maybe we shouldn't be eating a hamburger for breakfast, launch,

1369
01:21:29,560 --> 01:21:31,880
Speaker 1: and dinner. You make more than ten million in one year,

1370
01:21:32,240 --> 01:21:36,439
Speaker 1: you are ten millions, and one dollar gets taxed at

1371
01:21:36,640 --> 01:21:39,759
Speaker 1: seventy percent. Capitalism has not always existed in the world,

1372
01:21:39,920 --> 01:21:43,000
Speaker 1: and it will not always exist in the world. Should

1373
01:21:43,439 --> 01:21:46,360
Speaker 1: Is it okay to still have children? But we're here

1374
01:21:46,439 --> 01:21:51,439
Speaker 1: to say that an agency like ICE, which repeatedly and

1375
01:21:51,640 --> 01:21:56,640
Speaker 1: systematically violates human rights, does not deserve a dime. Is

1376
01:21:56,680 --> 01:21:59,120
Speaker 1: it still okay to have children? The world is going

1377
01:21:59,160 --> 01:22:01,800
Speaker 1: to end in all years if we don't do it

1378
01:22:02,040 --> 01:22:05,080
Speaker 1: fixed climate change. And all you care about is how

1379
01:22:05,120 --> 01:22:07,400
Speaker 1: we're gonna pay for it, man, I care for it's

1380
01:22:07,400 --> 01:22:12,639
Speaker 1: gonna save lives. How did Obamacare workout? And what about

1381
01:22:12,680 --> 01:22:16,280
Speaker 1: these people that eat Hamburger for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

1382
01:22:16,439 --> 01:22:19,240
Speaker 1: I don't know anybody they eat tamburgers for breakfast, lunch,

1383
01:22:19,360 --> 01:22:22,800
Speaker 1: and dinner. But Shry Murray is with us. She is

1384
01:22:22,880 --> 01:22:27,040
Speaker 1: challenging AOC born in Jamaica, West Indies, migrated to New

1385
01:22:27,120 --> 01:22:30,439
Speaker 1: York City with her family when she was nine. Shari's

1386
01:22:30,520 --> 01:22:32,680
Speaker 1: so nice to have you on this program. It was

1387
01:22:32,720 --> 01:22:34,679
Speaker 1: great to have you on Hannity the other night. How's

1388
01:22:34,680 --> 01:22:38,040
Speaker 1: the campaign going. It's going well. Sean, Listen, we have

1389
01:22:38,240 --> 01:22:42,360
Speaker 1: some astronomical numbers to report. I started out the campaign

1390
01:22:42,479 --> 01:22:46,080
Speaker 1: launch on Wednesday with six hundred Twitter followers. We're now

1391
01:22:46,240 --> 01:22:49,720
Speaker 1: upwards of one hundred and thirty thousands. I just that's

1392
01:22:49,760 --> 01:22:54,200
Speaker 1: fast to America. Thank you. Come tell me Well. First,

1393
01:22:54,280 --> 01:22:57,000
Speaker 1: let's go talk a little bit about your life, your background.

1394
01:22:57,080 --> 01:23:01,800
Speaker 1: I found it extraordinarily intriguing and why you decided to

1395
01:23:01,880 --> 01:23:05,200
Speaker 1: get into this race. Thank you, Sean. I am from Jamaica.

1396
01:23:05,280 --> 01:23:07,800
Speaker 1: I was born in Jamaica. I came to the United

1397
01:23:07,840 --> 01:23:10,639
Speaker 1: States of America with my family at the age of nine.

1398
01:23:11,240 --> 01:23:13,919
Speaker 1: I've been here ever since. I went to Andrew Jackson,

1399
01:23:14,560 --> 01:23:18,519
Speaker 1: I went to Quney. I have two degrees, and I'm

1400
01:23:19,040 --> 01:23:22,839
Speaker 1: now on your show here in my bid for Congress.

1401
01:23:22,920 --> 01:23:26,720
Speaker 1: Why am I in the race because it's an opportunity

1402
01:23:26,800 --> 01:23:30,439
Speaker 1: to build bridges. We see the congresswoman burning bridges down

1403
01:23:31,720 --> 01:23:35,360
Speaker 1: on every single issue that she has tackled, from the

1404
01:23:35,920 --> 01:23:39,240
Speaker 1: job killing green New Deal, to burning the bridges down

1405
01:23:39,360 --> 01:23:41,640
Speaker 1: for the Amazon deal here in New York, to the

1406
01:23:41,720 --> 01:23:44,760
Speaker 1: rhetoric that we're now seeing on the national stage. This

1407
01:23:45,240 --> 01:23:48,400
Speaker 1: scene looks like a scene out of The Mean Girl. Sean, Well,

1408
01:23:48,800 --> 01:23:51,519
Speaker 1: I've watched this and I listen to the policies. You

1409
01:23:51,720 --> 01:23:54,000
Speaker 1: just heard what they heard. By the way, why would

1410
01:23:54,080 --> 01:23:56,960
Speaker 1: we bother if the world's gonna end in twelve years.

1411
01:23:57,200 --> 01:23:59,920
Speaker 1: I'm kind of thinking, well, let's just have a big party.

1412
01:24:00,400 --> 01:24:03,479
Speaker 1: This is ridiculous. We need a legislator who is focused

1413
01:24:03,520 --> 01:24:07,519
Speaker 1: on policy. Let's talk about the issues, not the limelight.

1414
01:24:07,640 --> 01:24:10,320
Speaker 1: And I think that's what we're seeing control the narrative

1415
01:24:10,360 --> 01:24:15,719
Speaker 1: these days, just words that will just stroke emotion, negative emotion,

1416
01:24:16,040 --> 01:24:21,400
Speaker 1: incentivize violence, just not support the rule of law. This

1417
01:24:21,720 --> 01:24:24,599
Speaker 1: is the narrative that we're seeing on the national level,

1418
01:24:24,680 --> 01:24:27,679
Speaker 1: and it's viewing over into an international level. Two Sean,

1419
01:24:27,800 --> 01:24:30,439
Speaker 1: it's dangerous. You look at the Green New Deal that

1420
01:24:30,600 --> 01:24:33,640
Speaker 1: she laid out, and one interesting side note to that

1421
01:24:33,840 --> 01:24:36,320
Speaker 1: is her chiefest staff. The funny thing about the Green

1422
01:24:36,360 --> 01:24:38,400
Speaker 1: New Deal had nothing to do with climate change when

1423
01:24:38,439 --> 01:24:41,439
Speaker 1: we started, which has always been my position that it

1424
01:24:41,640 --> 01:24:48,040
Speaker 1: is a political agenda that is being driven here in

1425
01:24:48,160 --> 01:24:50,840
Speaker 1: the name of quote climate change in the environment, and

1426
01:24:50,960 --> 01:24:53,240
Speaker 1: it's predicated on the idea that works should be socialist.

1427
01:24:53,320 --> 01:24:56,679
Speaker 1: But under the Green New Deal, we would eliminate oil

1428
01:24:56,720 --> 01:24:58,680
Speaker 1: and gas in ten years, Yes, and it's going to

1429
01:24:58,800 --> 01:25:01,720
Speaker 1: cost everyday New Yorker and people across this country more

1430
01:25:01,840 --> 01:25:04,640
Speaker 1: money in their money. It's going to result in the

1431
01:25:04,760 --> 01:25:09,000
Speaker 1: biggest economic collapse the world has ever seen, and it

1432
01:25:09,080 --> 01:25:12,200
Speaker 1: will be immediate. The President is doing a great job.

1433
01:25:12,320 --> 01:25:15,800
Speaker 1: The economy is booming, the stock market is booming, we

1434
01:25:15,960 --> 01:25:20,600
Speaker 1: have low unemployment rates. These are just records that no

1435
01:25:20,680 --> 01:25:23,439
Speaker 1: one can run against. And she's introducing policy is that

1436
01:25:23,520 --> 01:25:27,960
Speaker 1: will reverse that. You have a predominantly immigrant community in

1437
01:25:28,280 --> 01:25:31,360
Speaker 1: the Queens and the Bronx in the fourteenth Congressional district.

1438
01:25:31,520 --> 01:25:35,439
Speaker 1: Issues like immigration would be a first starter for a

1439
01:25:35,560 --> 01:25:39,080
Speaker 1: freshman congresswoman, but that wasn't her first policy push. It

1440
01:25:39,200 --> 01:25:42,080
Speaker 1: was the job killing green New Deal. What do you

1441
01:25:42,280 --> 01:25:46,240
Speaker 1: make of the comments and the battle she has ongoing

1442
01:25:46,320 --> 01:25:49,720
Speaker 1: with Nancy Pelosi? For example, last week, Nancy Pelosi said,

1443
01:25:50,320 --> 01:25:52,040
Speaker 1: if you have anything to say to me, say it

1444
01:25:52,160 --> 01:25:56,839
Speaker 1: to my face, and within hours Congresswoman a Cascio Cortez

1445
01:25:57,080 --> 01:26:00,640
Speaker 1: was out there slamming Pelosi, and not only once, but

1446
01:26:00,840 --> 01:26:04,320
Speaker 1: while two of the four squad members suggesting the police's

1447
01:26:04,439 --> 01:26:06,960
Speaker 1: racist picking on people of color. I don't know that

1448
01:26:07,160 --> 01:26:10,280
Speaker 1: her manner is going to be effective in the long run.

1449
01:26:10,479 --> 01:26:14,519
Speaker 1: You're elected to legislate and introduce policy specifically to get

1450
01:26:14,600 --> 01:26:17,719
Speaker 1: that policy signed into law. I have not seen AOC

1451
01:26:17,920 --> 01:26:20,599
Speaker 1: work across the isle. I have not seen her champion

1452
01:26:20,680 --> 01:26:25,719
Speaker 1: issues that are important to the constituents in her district

1453
01:26:26,040 --> 01:26:30,519
Speaker 1: that elected her into the House's representatives. There are issues

1454
01:26:31,040 --> 01:26:37,400
Speaker 1: like infrastructure, education, everyday kitchen table issues that I don't

1455
01:26:37,560 --> 01:26:40,640
Speaker 1: hear the congresswoman talking about. I'm in this race to

1456
01:26:40,760 --> 01:26:43,640
Speaker 1: bring the focus back to the Residence of Queens and

1457
01:26:43,760 --> 01:26:48,479
Speaker 1: the Bronx. How do you explain away the Amazon deal.

1458
01:26:48,800 --> 01:26:51,639
Speaker 1: Let's put aside for a minute that I don't think

1459
01:26:51,840 --> 01:26:55,920
Speaker 1: one company that Combina should get breaks over any other company,

1460
01:26:55,920 --> 01:26:59,639
Speaker 1: because in that district, your district includes Long Island City,

1461
01:26:59,680 --> 01:27:03,559
Speaker 1: where Amazon was going to create twenty five thousand jobs

1462
01:27:03,640 --> 01:27:06,479
Speaker 1: for the people there average salary one hundred and fifty

1463
01:27:06,520 --> 01:27:09,519
Speaker 1: thousand dollars each. At once, it gets to that level

1464
01:27:09,560 --> 01:27:12,240
Speaker 1: that the states already made their decision, the mayors made

1465
01:27:12,280 --> 01:27:15,040
Speaker 1: their decision. You got a chance to bring twenty five

1466
01:27:15,160 --> 01:27:19,680
Speaker 1: thousand high paying jobs to your district, yes, paying on

1467
01:27:19,800 --> 01:27:22,920
Speaker 1: average one hundred and fifty grand. And you think of

1468
01:27:23,040 --> 01:27:25,960
Speaker 1: all the other benefits to other businesses. You think of

1469
01:27:26,040 --> 01:27:27,720
Speaker 1: what it will do to the real estate market you

1470
01:27:27,800 --> 01:27:30,280
Speaker 1: think of, I mean, it would have been a boom

1471
01:27:30,520 --> 01:27:34,080
Speaker 1: unlike anything New York has seen in a long, long time.

1472
01:27:34,280 --> 01:27:37,160
Speaker 1: And she kills the deal. Sean, the Democrats are driving

1473
01:27:37,240 --> 01:27:40,240
Speaker 1: business out of New York. That's why the residents are leaving. Right,

1474
01:27:40,920 --> 01:27:43,519
Speaker 1: Let's peel back the layers on the Amazon deal. So

1475
01:27:44,040 --> 01:27:47,479
Speaker 1: with regards to the President's Tax Cuts and Jobs Act,

1476
01:27:47,960 --> 01:27:51,799
Speaker 1: and there there's a portion the Investing Opportunity Act legislation

1477
01:27:51,880 --> 01:27:55,840
Speaker 1: by Senator Tim Scotts, which talks about opportunity zones. Now,

1478
01:27:55,920 --> 01:28:00,200
Speaker 1: Amazon was taking advantage of the opportunity zone language which

1479
01:28:00,360 --> 01:28:03,400
Speaker 1: calls for any large company to make a ten year

1480
01:28:03,479 --> 01:28:06,360
Speaker 1: investment and they get a kickback, a tax kickback. And

1481
01:28:06,560 --> 01:28:08,679
Speaker 1: that's what Amazon was going to get from the State

1482
01:28:08,720 --> 01:28:11,160
Speaker 1: of New York, a three billion dollar kickback for a

1483
01:28:11,240 --> 01:28:14,519
Speaker 1: ten year investment into the state by providing all of

1484
01:28:14,520 --> 01:28:18,679
Speaker 1: the amenities that we described just moments ago. Now, instead

1485
01:28:18,680 --> 01:28:21,280
Speaker 1: of articulating it at such and giving the President the

1486
01:28:21,320 --> 01:28:24,519
Speaker 1: credit for this portion of the bill, his tax bill,

1487
01:28:25,040 --> 01:28:29,400
Speaker 1: they decided to drive jobs out of the state. Now,

1488
01:28:29,479 --> 01:28:32,760
Speaker 1: even going further, Sean, back when I was running a

1489
01:28:32,840 --> 01:28:36,959
Speaker 1: Borough president candidate and one of his issue was economic development.

1490
01:28:37,439 --> 01:28:43,880
Speaker 1: The dairy, the milk dairy factory closed in Southeast Queens

1491
01:28:44,000 --> 01:28:46,760
Speaker 1: and we had a rally saying that we wanted to

1492
01:28:46,880 --> 01:28:50,920
Speaker 1: bring Amazon to Southeast Queens. That area in Queens has

1493
01:28:50,960 --> 01:28:54,439
Speaker 1: not seen economic development in some sixty plus years. So

1494
01:28:54,600 --> 01:28:57,560
Speaker 1: whether it was Long Island City or Southeast Queens, we

1495
01:28:57,880 --> 01:29:01,839
Speaker 1: welcome Amazon to the Borough of Queens. But unfortunately AOC

1496
01:29:02,400 --> 01:29:07,360
Speaker 1: was instrumental in driving the jobs, driving the company outside

1497
01:29:07,400 --> 01:29:10,280
Speaker 1: of the state. We don't need someone like that in office.

1498
01:29:10,920 --> 01:29:14,760
Speaker 1: Let me ask you this, because New York just historically,

1499
01:29:14,880 --> 01:29:20,120
Speaker 1: traditionally it's become a very very blue state. We see

1500
01:29:20,240 --> 01:29:23,920
Speaker 1: this mass exodus as you're referred to. And I agree

1501
01:29:23,960 --> 01:29:26,000
Speaker 1: with you, and I think what's driving people away or

1502
01:29:26,120 --> 01:29:30,479
Speaker 1: high tax high taxes, burdensome regulation. I have no idea

1503
01:29:30,560 --> 01:29:34,320
Speaker 1: why Governor Cuomo doesn't want to use the vast resources,

1504
01:29:34,479 --> 01:29:36,880
Speaker 1: especially in upstate New York. As it relates to fracking

1505
01:29:36,880 --> 01:29:40,080
Speaker 1: and natural gas. That's a separate issue. But people are

1506
01:29:40,200 --> 01:29:44,960
Speaker 1: leaving and there hasn't been an opportunity like this. You're

1507
01:29:45,040 --> 01:29:48,680
Speaker 1: right in so many different years. But you know what

1508
01:29:48,880 --> 01:29:52,640
Speaker 1: about the constituents. Are people just so programmed in the

1509
01:29:52,720 --> 01:29:55,439
Speaker 1: sense that they only vote Democrat. They don't even think

1510
01:29:55,479 --> 01:29:58,000
Speaker 1: about the election. Now Kasio Cortez is getting a lot

1511
01:29:58,040 --> 01:30:00,720
Speaker 1: of press, how do people in the district seem to

1512
01:30:00,800 --> 01:30:03,719
Speaker 1: be reacting to her? They don't know her, quite frankly,

1513
01:30:03,920 --> 01:30:06,160
Speaker 1: and if you look at a recent survey that was done,

1514
01:30:06,479 --> 01:30:09,120
Speaker 1: the constituents of the district do not know who their

1515
01:30:09,160 --> 01:30:13,479
Speaker 1: representative is. And this bid for Congress, my bid for

1516
01:30:13,600 --> 01:30:17,439
Speaker 1: Congress to unite the fight across the party aisles to

1517
01:30:17,840 --> 01:30:21,240
Speaker 1: build bridges, is something that I do believe will connect

1518
01:30:21,360 --> 01:30:24,040
Speaker 1: with the constituents of Queens and the Bronx and the

1519
01:30:24,120 --> 01:30:28,400
Speaker 1: fourteenth Congressional District. I don't know what her objective is

1520
01:30:28,800 --> 01:30:33,000
Speaker 1: outside of running for the limelight. You know, we see

1521
01:30:33,080 --> 01:30:37,519
Speaker 1: her at the concentration camps. We see her, excuse me,

1522
01:30:37,640 --> 01:30:41,680
Speaker 1: describe our facilities as concentration camps. We see her use

1523
01:30:41,760 --> 01:30:46,400
Speaker 1: that as a way to garner attention and to denounce

1524
01:30:46,479 --> 01:30:49,479
Speaker 1: the administration. But we don't see her in the community

1525
01:30:49,640 --> 01:30:54,600
Speaker 1: making those same pushes or advocating for the issues that

1526
01:30:54,720 --> 01:30:57,439
Speaker 1: are important to the people and Queens and the Bronx.

1527
01:30:57,760 --> 01:31:01,519
Speaker 1: So she's taken her advocacy to the stage, the main stage.

1528
01:31:01,560 --> 01:31:04,400
Speaker 1: She needs to take it back to Queens and the Bronx.

1529
01:31:05,640 --> 01:31:07,920
Speaker 1: So many people are just texting writing me now and

1530
01:31:08,080 --> 01:31:10,840
Speaker 1: I guess you've gotten a lot of attention. How can

1531
01:31:10,960 --> 01:31:12,680
Speaker 1: people get in touch with you? If they want to

1536
01:31:26,840 --> 01:31:30,040
Speaker 1: it's a uphill battle. I do have a path to victory.

1537
01:31:30,120 --> 01:31:33,719

01:31:41,320 --> 01:31:44,320
Speaker 1: ground to really get our message out there. You know,

1542
01:31:44,400 --> 01:31:48,080
Speaker 1: the primary back when she won, she won, I think

1543
01:31:48,120 --> 01:31:50,160
Speaker 1: it was some eight thousand votes or it was a

1544
01:31:50,240 --> 01:31:53,600
Speaker 1: low voter turnout. So we hope to really connect not

1545
