1 00:00:01,520 --> 00:00:07,000 Speaker 1: Lower your expectations. That is the media's propaganda talking about 2 00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:11,360 Speaker 1: the investigation into who left cocaine at the White House. 3 00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:17,079 Speaker 1: Lower your expectations, and if you'll just do that, you'll 4 00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:20,080 Speaker 1: be in much better footing. You'll love the response that 5 00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:24,400 Speaker 1: you're going to get. Just lower your expectations. That's the 6 00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:28,080 Speaker 1: number one thing that you need to do. MSNBC putting 7 00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:30,560 Speaker 1: out the propaganda that you need to calm down and 8 00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:33,880 Speaker 1: expect to never know who brought the cocaine into the 9 00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:34,520 Speaker 1: White House. 10 00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:39,440 Speaker 2: And the key thing is that multiple officials are cautioning 11 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:44,640 Speaker 2: that it is unlikely and certainly possible that there would 12 00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:48,559 Speaker 2: be a resolution to this, meaning forensic evidence found that 13 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 2: could identify an individual scanning the video doing the testing, 14 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:56,640 Speaker 2: But they are preparing us for a result that will 15 00:00:56,640 --> 00:01:01,800 Speaker 2: be no conclusive evidence found, and that is still subject 16 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:04,479 Speaker 2: to change as the work continues. But that should give 17 00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 2: people a sense of where this is. They are looking 18 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 2: at what's available. They're saying it's a very small bag, 19 00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 2: limited ability to test it because as tests are done, 20 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:18,880 Speaker 2: whether it's DNA or fingerprinting or other scientific type processes 21 00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 2: in the lab, you further degrade that sample, making it 22 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,480 Speaker 2: harder to get information from it, and of course they're 23 00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 2: scanning the videos. This was found in a cubby off 24 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 2: of the lobby area of that pathway in and as 25 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 2: you know, often security cameras and so forth, they're getting 26 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,600 Speaker 2: the big wide areas, and an official said a camera 27 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:40,760 Speaker 2: would have had to have been trained in on the 28 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:43,200 Speaker 2: cubbies and be able to see from the right angle 29 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 2: and individual dropping that packet. So expectations are being lowered 30 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 2: about an eventual conclusion here that would lead to an 31 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 2: identity and then even the potential for prosecution at a 32 00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 2: misdemeanor level for the amount of drug we're talking about. 33 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 2: At the same time, this is this is unusual, to 34 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 2: say the least. Officials say they don't have any record 35 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 2: of an illicit drug like this being found in the 36 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 2: West Wing or in the White House before, and so 37 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:11,480 Speaker 2: it is truly rare, and it has gotten a lot 38 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:12,800 Speaker 2: of interest in the public. 39 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 1: To just lower your expectations, folks, We're not going to 40 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,960 Speaker 1: know who did this. This is the most secure building 41 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 1: in America in theory, but you need to lower your 42 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:29,520 Speaker 1: expectations to fit that right. MSNBC also saying this later 43 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 1: on that this is a sigh of relief for them 44 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,840 Speaker 1: that they won't be named. Not joking. Listen carefully, this 45 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 1: is another report lowering your expectations and. 46 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:40,800 Speaker 2: Stay with me for a moment. We do have some 47 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 2: breaking news that we're following some reporting on the small 48 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:45,919 Speaker 2: baggy of cocaine found in the White Lie. 49 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 1: You know, a small baggie. Now, it's a small baggy 50 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:50,520 Speaker 1: of cocaine. Like it's just a little bit of blow. 51 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:52,359 Speaker 1: It's not like it's a lot of blow. It's a 52 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 1: small baggy of blow. Calm down, house. 53 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 2: What more can you tell us about this? 54 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:56,920 Speaker 1: Ryan? 55 00:02:57,560 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, Aaron Kelly o'donald reports that it's possible that we 56 00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:02,960 Speaker 3: might not even get to learn who actually brought uh 57 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 3: this small bag he is. So I'm sure that's a 58 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 3: sigh of relief to whoever sort of made the boneheaded 59 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 3: move of bringing a bag of cocaine to the White House. 60 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,799 Speaker 3: But because this is in Ah, you know, not an 61 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,519 Speaker 3: area that you know, it's highly trafficked, but not wasn't 62 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:17,840 Speaker 3: necessarily covered by cameras all that, well, you know, it's 63 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 3: an area that a decent amount of people had access to. 64 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 3: It just makes that investigation a little bit difficult. So, 65 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:26,639 Speaker 3: you know, this could all end without you know, necessarily 66 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,359 Speaker 3: anyone being named as the person who was responsible for 67 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 3: bringing that bag of cocaine to the White House. 68 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 1: Yes, s I of relief right, whoever brought this cocaine 69 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 1: to the White House. It's likely to end without anyone 70 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: being named. We'll never know. So if you were hoping, yeah, 71 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 1: we're gonna we're gonna just slow those expectations again. This 72 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 1: is the White House refused to say whether or not 73 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 1: cocaine belonged to Joe or Hunter. Biden won't even answer 74 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 1: that question, like, hey, can you rule out the President 75 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 1: won't answer it, Hey, will you rule out the sun 76 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 1: won't answer it. This is one of the most, if 77 00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 1: not the most secure building in America, and you're telling 78 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 1: me that we can't figure this out. Jason Chafis, former congressman, 79 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 1: said this on Fox about the idea that cocaine and 80 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 1: the West Wing you can't figure out who brought it in. Listen, 81 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 1: there's an outside perimeter of security. They have badges. Everybody 82 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 1: has a badge. 83 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:17,839 Speaker 4: There are multiple cameras. 84 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:18,040 Speaker 1: Going on through this. 85 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:21,159 Speaker 4: You don't just get to rock around the West Wing, 86 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,599 Speaker 4: even if your staff without a heavy presence of the 87 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:28,719 Speaker 4: Secret Service and a distinct understanding of who's going where 88 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:33,280 Speaker 4: and why, And so I think they already know where 89 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:35,279 Speaker 4: it is. I think they're trying to wait for the 90 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 4: DNA evidence that doesn't happen in just a half a 91 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 4: day or a day. But the Secret Service, I do believe, 92 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:44,039 Speaker 4: knows at this point who this person is. 93 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 1: I think he's probably right. But if the media says 94 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 1: you'll never know, then there's a good change you can 95 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:53,720 Speaker 1: get away with never telling us. Stephen Miller, who worked 96 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 1: at the White House, he was asked about this, saying, Hey, 97 00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,800 Speaker 1: the idea that we don't know who this is is 98 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:03,359 Speaker 1: had a plausible response to all of this, Like is 99 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 1: that a realistic response? Listen to what he said last night, 100 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 1: steph Okay. So the quote on the day that it 101 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 1: happened by. 102 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 5: The person that has Matt Team, who identifies it preliminarily 103 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:19,839 Speaker 5: as cocaine, is it's in the library, which is the 104 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 5: inner sanctum, and then all of a sudden we're told, oh, 105 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 5: it's where all the people come in. Now let's talk 106 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:29,360 Speaker 5: about where Karine Jean Pierre said it's found. Can you 107 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 5: describe that area for us, Stephen? 108 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:35,280 Speaker 6: So the original area they appear to be referring to 109 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 6: would be what is sometimes colloquially known as the Marine entrance, 110 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 6: where you see the two Marine guards standing there, and 111 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 6: that's where dignitaries come through, and that's where it scored 112 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 6: and guests come through, and then there's a waiting area, 113 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 6: but that's only a very highly controlled area. That's an 114 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:56,359 Speaker 6: escort only area. You've been through extensive screening to be 115 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 6: anywhere close to that area. So it's not just that 116 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 6: you're going through a a mag. 117 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:02,279 Speaker 1: And getting wanted. 118 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 6: You've been pre cleared and pre screened, and somebody knows 119 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:07,800 Speaker 6: exactly who you are and everything about you. We have 120 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:09,920 Speaker 6: an extensive history on you by the time you've reached 121 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:10,480 Speaker 6: that location. 122 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:13,599 Speaker 5: And in addition to that, Steven, are there not security 123 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 5: cameras identifying everyone who's coming in and watching people. 124 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:20,280 Speaker 6: I would just put it this way, nobody is going 125 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 6: into the West Wing of the White House without a 126 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 6: million eyes being on you. This is one of the 127 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,839 Speaker 6: most secure facilities in the face of the earth. You 128 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 6: were only steps away from the Oval Office, You're only 129 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 6: steps away from the Situation Room, You're only steps away 130 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:39,160 Speaker 6: from the offices of the National Security Advisor, and many 131 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,960 Speaker 6: other of the highest ranking officers in the US government. 132 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:43,920 Speaker 1: I'm going to stop in there because I think there's 133 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 1: another point here that has to be made. If this 134 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 1: was any other substance, they would tell you who the 135 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 1: person was. If it was anthrax or any type of 136 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 1: biological weapon, any other type of chemical that could harm people, 137 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: they would have our arrested the person. The idea that 138 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,840 Speaker 1: this baggie of cocaine has now moved around what three 139 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 1: different times, not once, not twice, but three different times. Okay, 140 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 1: three different times. This baggie of cocaine has moved around. 141 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 1: It was in the library, no, just kidding, it was 142 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 1: an I have really populator, just kidding. Okay, it was 143 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:23,119 Speaker 1: in the cubbies right by outside of the Oval office. Okay, 144 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 1: So what the hell is it? Right? What is it? 145 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 1: Do we know what it is? Do we have any 146 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 1: idea what this is going to be? I think they 147 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: know all of these answers. I think this baggie of 148 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 1: cocaine has moved left and right, up and down and 149 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 1: all over the damn place. And I think that's part 150 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 1: of the cover up here in the corruption here, and 151 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 1: we should all be asking these questions. Every part of 152 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 1: this should be answered. Now, before I get into more 153 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 1: of this story, I want to say thank you and 154 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 1: tell you about our good friends at the Gust of 155 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: Precious Metals. Have you been saving a long time for retirement. Well, 156 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 1: if you have, you probably really stressed out over the 157 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 1: last year with interest rates have been skyrocketing, inflation issues, 158 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 1: bank failures, and people that have actually lost some money 159 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 1: in their retirement accounts. If you aren't invested and diversified 160 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 1: in gold, you should check out August of Precious Metals. 161 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 1: August of Precious Metals. They're just different. They'll even tell 162 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 1: you if a gold IRA isn't your answer, they give 163 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 1: you the facts about gold and precious medals.

And it's so important if 166 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 1: you're in retirement or close to retirement, because there's no 167 00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:39,959 Speaker 1: time to make up losses.

James Comer is going to begin deposing 180 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:28,320 Speaker 1: Biden business associates. He has now confirmed this. The House 181 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 1: Oversight Committee is set to begin deposing the Biden crime 182 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:37,320 Speaker 1: family business associates in the coming weeks and months, the chairman, 183 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:42,960 Speaker 1: James Comer, has now said publicly. Comer said Devin Archer, 184 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:47,079 Speaker 1: one of Hunter Biden's top associates, will be the first 185 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 1: member to pose to unravel the family's international business schemes. 186 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 1: A source with knowledge of the committee's schedule has confirmed 187 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:01,239 Speaker 1: that Archer's lawyers are in con tact with the committee 188 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 1: about scheduling the interview in mid June. The committee subpoena 189 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 1: to Devon Archer to appear before it on June the nineteenth. 190 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 1: A source familiar with the situations confirmed that he negotiated 191 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:18,960 Speaker 1: later deposition date, saying, quote, we are entering the deposition 192 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:26,559 Speaker 1: phase about this ongoing investigation into the Bidens. Lawmakers conceivably 193 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:30,080 Speaker 1: have about twelve months left to investigate the family shitty 194 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:33,240 Speaker 1: business deals. This campaign season in the summer of twenty 195 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 1: twenty four will likely become the priority in Washington, d c. Quote. 196 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,600 Speaker 1: We will have Devon Archer the first person who was 197 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:44,719 Speaker 1: involved in the Hunter Biden business dealings. He will be 198 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 1: the first person we deposed. Comber said, we have a 199 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:51,319 Speaker 1: list of who's who's that we're involved in the Biden 200 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 1: organization that we plan on deposing throughout the summer. Now 201 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 1: you may not know this, so I'll remind you. Devin 202 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 1: Archer was unter Biden's quote best friend in business quote unquote. 203 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 1: He got in major legal trouble just last year in 204 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 1: twenty twenty two for defrauding a Native American tribal entity. 205 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 1: The court ordered him to pay forty three million, nine 206 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty four thousand, four hundred and sixteen dollars 207 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:25,440 Speaker 1: and seventy five cents in a judgment to the Native 208 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 1: American victims. Prior to his arrest, Devin Archer served in 209 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:35,720 Speaker 1: twenty fourteen with Hunter Biden on the board of Barisma, 210 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 1: that Ukrainian based energy company whose executive allegedly bribed not 211 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,280 Speaker 1: only Hunter Biden with five million dollars, but with the 212 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 1: President of the United States of America Joe Biden with 213 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 1: his five million dollars for himself as well. Photographers infamously 214 00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 1: photographed Devin Archer playing golf with Hunter Biden and then 215 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 1: Vice President Joe Biden in Southampton, New York, which was 216 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 1: the first picture to confirm clearly that the President of 217 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:07,920 Speaker 1: the United States of America was lying to us when 218 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 1: he said he never discussed any of his business decisions 219 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 1: with his son or anything about business with his brother 220 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 1: or any other family member. Clearly that was a lie. 221 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 1: The photo was the first photo to raise questions regarding 222 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 1: the extent to which Joe Biden was aware not only 223 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:30,719 Speaker 1: of his son's overseas business deals, but how involved he 224 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:35,080 Speaker 1: actually was. Remember, he was never forced to discuss any 225 00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:38,200 Speaker 1: of that when he ran for president, the media covered 226 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 1: for him. Devin Archer was by Hunter Biden's side for 227 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 1: decades in the business deals. They knew each other for 228 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 1: quite some time. They attended Yale together in the late 229 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 1: nineteen nineties, Archer went on to become the vice chairman 230 00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:57,240 Speaker 1: of finance for John Carey's failed two thousand and four 231 00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 1: presidential campaign. Many people didn't know that he was connected 232 00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:05,760 Speaker 1: with his college classmate Chris Hines. That would be Kerrie's 233 00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:08,679 Speaker 1: step son. Now a lot of people don't realize that 234 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 1: John Carrey's step son, Chris Hines, was another Biden family 235 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 1: business partner that we would expect to be deposed now. 236 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 1: Archer is not the only associate James Comer has subpoena. 237 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:26,439 Speaker 1: The committee has not publicly produced any results of those subpoenas, 238 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:29,560 Speaker 1: but we do know that in May, Comer said the 239 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 1: Biden family members will quote more than likely receive subpoenas. 240 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 1: Those also appear out now that if they're gonna call 241 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:41,200 Speaker 1: Hunter Biden, James Biden, the other Biden crime family members 242 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:43,679 Speaker 1: who are on the take here, there's a reason why 243 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:45,439 Speaker 1: they're playing it this way. They want to get all 244 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:47,440 Speaker 1: these other people on the record first. They know what 245 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:51,440 Speaker 1: questions to ask the Bidens. Clearly there's a strategy here 246 00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:56,440 Speaker 1: that is playing out now. All this is happening as 247 00:13:56,480 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 1: the White House has now officially refused to say whether 248 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:04,439 Speaker 1: or not the cocaine found at the White House over 249 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 1: the weekend. It is a crime scene at the White 250 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:12,120 Speaker 1: House belonged to Joe or Hunter Biden. That's right. The 251 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 1: White House Deputy pre Secretary Andrew Bates could not say 252 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:21,200 Speaker 1: whether or not the cocaine founder Joe Biden quote he 253 00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 1: is citing the Hatch Act. Quote. Are you willing to 254 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 1: say that that's not the case, that it the cocaine 255 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:33,480 Speaker 1: doesn't belong to them. A reporter asked Baits aboard Air 256 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:36,600 Speaker 1: Force one. Quote. I don't have a response to that 257 00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 1: because we have to be careful about the Hatch Act, 258 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:42,720 Speaker 1: he claimed. The reporter did not follow up with Baits 259 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 1: on how the Hatch Act would apply to this situation now. 260 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 1: The Hatch Act's main provision blocks Executive Branch employees from 261 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 1: engaging in partisan political activity while on duty, in a 262 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 1: federal facility or using federal property. According to the Justice Department, 263 00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:03,120 Speaker 1: I I will say is that I've noticed there does 264 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 1: seem to be some increasing frustration coming from that corner 265 00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 1: in general, and I think it is probably it probably 266 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 1: included in the contrast between their substances and their policy records. 267 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:19,200 Speaker 1: Bates tried to change the subject. Obviously that made no 268 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 1: sense at all. What's absurd about this is that the 269 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 1: idea of the Hatchack would somehow be involved here is 270 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:28,960 Speaker 1: maybe the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. It actually 271 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 1: doesn't even make sense. Now we have the audio from 272 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 1: the press gaggle aboard Air Force one en route to 273 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 1: South Carolina. You're gonna hear it in the background. Listen carefully, 274 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 1: Well one more, you know, president form. 275 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 7: President Trump has made some pretty wild posts recently on 276 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 7: social media. One of them was that the cocaine found 277 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 7: the White House was it belonged to either the President 278 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:54,960 Speaker 7: or his son? Are you willing to say that that's 279 00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 7: not the case, that they don't belong to them. 280 00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 8: I don't have a respect to that, because we have 281 00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:04,960 Speaker 8: to be careful about the hatch Act. What I will 282 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 8: say is that I have noticed there does seem to 283 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 8: be some increasing frustration coming from that corner in general, 284 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 8: and I think it is probably rooted in the contrast 285 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:19,480 Speaker 8: between their substantive policy records. 286 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:23,120 Speaker 1: That literally makes no sense. It's almost that's like a 287 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:25,800 Speaker 1: response you would get if you were on cocaine. A 288 00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:29,400 Speaker 1: second reporter asked the White House if they would comment 289 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 1: on this, or even if they would commit to transparency 290 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,200 Speaker 1: if the Secret Service discovered who smuggled the cocaine the 291 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:39,680 Speaker 1: White House. If the Secret Service is able to determine 292 00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 1: the individuals and individual responsible, will the White House commit 293 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 1: to transparency in this and making that information public? The 294 00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 1: reporter asked, listen to the White House's response to that cocaine. 295 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 9: I understand the Secret Service is conducting an investigation. If 296 00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 9: the Secret Service is able to determine the individual responsible, 297 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:04,440 Speaker 9: will the Secret Service and the and will the White 298 00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:08,600 Speaker 9: House commit to transparency in this and making that information public. 299 00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:11,760 Speaker 8: I'm going to defer to the Secret Service professionals who 300 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:13,960 Speaker 8: are carrying this out. I'm just not going to engage 301 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 8: on hypotheticals about it. I would suggest you contact them 302 00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 8: for anything more. 303 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:23,000 Speaker 1: Again, the biggest load of crap answer that you can 304 00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:27,119 Speaker 1: give this is a mid level Biden staffer. Can you 305 00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 1: imagine if that's how they downgraded you, Like the White 306 00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:31,959 Speaker 1: House is telling you this mid level. Like, imagine if 307 00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 1: you see your name in lights and they're referring to 308 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,040 Speaker 1: you as mid level because they're trying to diminish Andrew 309 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 1: Bates saying, ah, it's a mid level guy, right. This 310 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:42,199 Speaker 1: is how this is how non serious we are about this. 311 00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 1: Now the question serious right if the Secret Service determines 312 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:47,520 Speaker 1: the individual responsible, And I want to be clear about this, 313 00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:50,120 Speaker 1: I have no doubt they know who did this. I've 314 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:52,879 Speaker 1: been in the White House. I've been lucky enough to 315 00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 1: go in the White House quite a few times in 316 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:58,679 Speaker 1: my life, and the idea that this is would be 317 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:02,240 Speaker 1: hard to figure out is totally and absurd. I want 318 00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:05,720 Speaker 1: to also be clear about that they know who brought 319 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:08,280 Speaker 1: this in there. I have no doubt if this was 320 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:10,600 Speaker 1: anthrax or something else, the person would have already been 321 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:15,000 Speaker 1: apprehended and arrested. This would have been and charged. Okay, 322 00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 1: I want to also make that very very very very clear. 323 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:23,640 Speaker 1: I have no doubt that the cameras picked up who 324 00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 1: it is and they figured it out. Now, I actually 325 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:29,440 Speaker 1: believe there's a very good chance this was not Hunter 326 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:32,880 Speaker 1: Biden based on when they found it. I believe there's 327 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:35,960 Speaker 1: a good chances could have just been these types of 328 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,880 Speaker 1: people that work at the White House who basically think 329 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 1: that the rules don't apply to them. And if you 330 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:42,840 Speaker 1: look at this administration, you look at this White House, 331 00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:44,680 Speaker 1: it makes sense that they would have a bunch of 332 00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:47,120 Speaker 1: a bunch of druggies around, right, A bunch of coke 333 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:50,640 Speaker 1: heads around doing blow. I think there's a very good 334 00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:54,399 Speaker 1: chances the staffer they probably were out the night before, 335 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 1: or they were going out that night, they needed their 336 00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:59,040 Speaker 1: cocaine with them, and they decided to bring it to 337 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:00,920 Speaker 1: the White House. Now, is there chance, of course, of 338 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:03,120 Speaker 1: the drug use of Hunter Biden that in theory could 339 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:05,600 Speaker 1: be his, Yes, but I'm not obsessed with that story. 340 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:08,399 Speaker 1: What I'm upset about is the fact that the White House, 341 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:12,360 Speaker 1: I'm sure has figured this out. They know whose drugs 342 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:18,200 Speaker 1: it is, They know whose drugs this is. I did 343 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 1: out number yesterday and I was sitting there with former 344 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 1: White House pre secretary on the panel with me as well, 345 00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:27,680 Speaker 1: Kaylee mcininnie, and she said, no way Hunter Biden was 346 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:30,840 Speaker 1: a source of cocaine at the White House. She dismissed 347 00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:32,800 Speaker 1: the idea that the cocaine found at the White House 348 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:37,320 Speaker 1: belonged to President Joe Biden's son. She said, quote camp David, 349 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 1: there is no way it is conceivable to think cocaine 350 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 1: could sit for a seventy two hour period, So I 351 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:47,280 Speaker 1: would rule him out at this point. She's probably right, 352 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:51,680 Speaker 1: it's probably a staff member either doing blow at the 353 00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:54,960 Speaker 1: White House or was taking it in advance. Regardless, the 354 00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:58,680 Speaker 1: fact that you felt comfortable enough to bring a hardcore 355 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:03,320 Speaker 1: drug cocaine in into the White House tells you everything 356 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:07,800 Speaker 1: you need to know about this White House. This is 357 00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:10,600 Speaker 1: who's running the country. I also would make this point, 358 00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:13,400 Speaker 1: I don't believe the presidents run the country. You look 359 00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:16,160 Speaker 1: at the stumbles, you look at the gaps, you look 360 00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 1: at the schedule of this president. It's pretty clear he's 361 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 1: not running this administration. What concerns me is could there 362 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:27,200 Speaker 1: be a kokeead at the high level in this White 363 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:31,480 Speaker 1: House who clearly has significant influence on this White House? 364 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:35,200 Speaker 1: Is there a chance that that individual at the White 365 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:38,200 Speaker 1: House is doing drugs with other people at the White 366 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 1: House who are making massive policy decisions for the United 367 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 1: States of America. That is the question that people should 368 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:48,760 Speaker 1: be asking. And why are they protecting that staffer. I 369 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:52,239 Speaker 1: have no doubt they know at this point who did it, 370 00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:56,320 Speaker 1: What are they hiding and what employee are they protecting. 371 00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:02,480 Speaker 1: Let me also say something else. Experts are baffled by 372 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 1: the White House invoking the hatch Haac to dodge questions 373 00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 1: about this cocaine. Even a democratic ethics experts say if 374 00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 1: Biden campaign staffer were high as a kite, the Hatchac 375 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 1: would not cover the cocaine in question. The idea they 376 00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 1: thought that that respond so I can't talk about this 377 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:25,520 Speaker 1: because the hatch At act is absurd. Experts who understand 378 00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:30,160 Speaker 1: the hatch Act understand that invoking the Hatchack when asked 379 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:33,480 Speaker 1: whether President Biden or his son owned the cocaine found 380 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 1: the White House truly is a middle finger to every 381 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:41,040 Speaker 1: single American. That's something we need to understand. And when 382 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:44,320 Speaker 1: you have the White House Deputy pres Secretary Andrew Bates 383 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:47,679 Speaker 1: as being asked during this press gaggle whether the president 384 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,520 Speaker 1: can deny that he or his son owned the cocaine 385 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:52,440 Speaker 1: found the White House, and then he says, I can't 386 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:56,359 Speaker 1: answer that question. Come on, really, I don't have a 387 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:58,440 Speaker 1: response to that because we have to be careful about 388 00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:00,959 Speaker 1: the Hatchac. That's your response. And the media, by the way, 389 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:02,440 Speaker 1: went along with It's like they're like, all right, we 390 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,679 Speaker 1: asked the question. We're gonna move on now. We asked 391 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 1: the question. We can check that box. And then Bates 392 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:17,280 Speaker 1: compared Biden's policy record to his predecessor's record. No, they're 393 00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:20,399 Speaker 1: not the same folks. There was never a time that 394 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:22,719 Speaker 1: cocaine was found the White House when Donald Trump was there. 395 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:24,480 Speaker 1: Then they said we got to invoke the Hatch Act. 396 00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 1: That has nothing to do with answering the damn question. 397 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:33,359 Speaker 1: Attorney Bradley Moss said this, he is candidly at loss 398 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 1: as to why mister Bates believe the hatjack is relevant 399 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:40,480 Speaker 1: with respect to addressing that question. Quote. I could envision 400 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:44,719 Speaker 1: other legitimate basis for declining to respond, such as respecting 401 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:47,639 Speaker 1: the integrity of an ongoing investigation, but to reference a 402 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 1: hatjack seems misplaced. Former Bush Administration Ethics chief chief Richard Paynter, 403 00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 1: who ran for Congress as a Democrat last cycle, said 404 00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 1: he was and said this quote given lectures at the 405 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:06,960 Speaker 1: White House and publish articles on the Hatch Act, but 406 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:10,960 Speaker 1: the bill does not cover snorting cocaine, referring to the 407 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 1: Hatch Act being important again, saying it doesn't cover snorting 408 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 1: campaign What the blank does the hatjack have to do 409 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:24,080 Speaker 1: with cocaine question mark? This is the most ridiculous invocation 410 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:27,679 Speaker 1: of the Hatch Act I've ever seen. Painter add that 411 00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:30,440 Speaker 1: even if someone on Biden's campaign were hid as a kite, 412 00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:34,240 Speaker 1: the hat jack would not cover the cocaine in question. Yeah, 413 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:38,640 Speaker 1: very odd. The Baits would pivot to the Hatch Act 414 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:44,000 Speaker 1: and doesn't deny that the president or the son, the 415 00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 1: first Sons, that this cocaine was connecting them, because wouldn't 416 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:50,240 Speaker 1: you want to get that out there? Right? If you 417 00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:55,840 Speaker 1: know that this isn't their cocaine, wouldn't you immediately say, Hey, 418 00:23:55,960 --> 00:23:58,600 Speaker 1: this cocaine found the White House does not belong to you, 419 00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:00,959 Speaker 1: the president or son. That's the question they're asking, right, 420 00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:06,640 Speaker 1: does it You would immediately say it does not? Right, 421 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 1: You would immediately say that the that they are not 422 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:14,679 Speaker 1: on drugs and the and the famous Hatch Act. You 423 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:18,120 Speaker 1: may have heard about this before. This provision which does 424 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:22,399 Speaker 1: it doesn't allow you to say, you know what, It 425 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 1: doesn't allow you to say what the White House said. 426 00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 1: The Hatch Act doesn't say or say to the people 427 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:31,879 Speaker 1: with the White House had You can't answer the question 428 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:35,199 Speaker 1: if cocaine belongs to the president or his son. That 429 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:38,960 Speaker 1: is insane. So it brings up the question of Okay, 430 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 1: well is it the president's cocaine? Is it the first 431 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 1: son's cocaine? Why wouldn't you answer the question say it's not, 432 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:51,919 Speaker 1: it's not their cocaine. It's not their cocaine. There is 433 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:56,560 Speaker 1: more pressure now coming on the White House to bring 434 00:24:56,760 --> 00:25:02,400 Speaker 1: home a someone that needs to come home that's in captivity. 435 00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:07,240 Speaker 1: This is pretty shocking. The Wall Street General reporter's family 436 00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:09,760 Speaker 1: is not reflecting on one hundred days of his attainment 437 00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:14,200 Speaker 1: in Russia. The mother of that reporter has now done 438 00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:17,119 Speaker 1: a sit down with the Wall Street Journal and is 439 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:20,439 Speaker 1: now putting pressure on the Biden administration to bring their 440 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:24,159 Speaker 1: son home. They brought home Brittany Grinder because she was 441 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:26,880 Speaker 1: more important than another American being held there. Right, that's 442 00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:28,639 Speaker 1: what they've decided. Now take a listen. 443 00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 10: It's even hard enough to leave him there then it 444 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:38,119 Speaker 10: was the first time. I try not to think about anything. 445 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:39,760 Speaker 8: That's just very hard. 446 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:42,240 Speaker 10: You don't want your mind to go there. I don't 447 00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:43,400 Speaker 10: want my mind to go anywhere. 448 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:48,119 Speaker 11: The conviction rate in Russia is nearly one hundred percent. 449 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:51,040 Speaker 10: Exactly is there acal in cases like that? 450 00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:53,960 Speaker 11: Is there anything about his case that gives you hope? 451 00:25:54,960 --> 00:26:01,600 Speaker 10: No? No, I rely on President Bias than promise to 452 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:04,960 Speaker 10: do whatever it takes to bring Evan back. I rely 453 00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 10: on his team, on their expertise. 454 00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:12,200 Speaker 11: Just knowing that our government is doing everything in their 455 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 11: power right now, and just everyone wants to help and 456 00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:23,040 Speaker 11: is thinking about him. And I just know that we're 457 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:23,680 Speaker 11: not alone in. 458 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 1: This there it is. Oh, I just know they're going 459 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:31,320 Speaker 1: to you know, his expertise. If you're counting on the 460 00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:36,119 Speaker 1: expertise of this White House. That's concerning. And I don't 461 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:39,439 Speaker 1: mean that in a mean way. I mean that in 462 00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 1: an honest way. This administration decided to value the life 463 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 1: of a WNBA player over and another American that was 464 00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 1: there and there longer and didn't get him back. That's 465 00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:55,400 Speaker 1: concerning and everybody should be concerned with that. If you're 466 00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:59,080 Speaker 1: being held right now and you don't fit a box, okay, 467 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:03,200 Speaker 1: and then you've got a real problem here. If you're 468 00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:08,560 Speaker 1: not one that they say is valued, okay, then there's 469 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:12,000 Speaker 1: a real problem. Is this guy a white guy, yes? 470 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:14,720 Speaker 1: Is he a reporter? Yes? Do they care about him? 471 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:19,120 Speaker 1: I don't think they value him. I think that's a 472 00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 1: fair way of putting it. Like, I don't think they 473 00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 1: value him at all. I think it's a complete opposite 474 00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:30,560 Speaker 1: of that. I think they look at this and they go, ah, 475 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:35,879 Speaker 1: you know, so what we got an American there. This 476 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:41,399 Speaker 1: American is a guy that is he's a reporter, he 477 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 1: knew the risks. We'll get him back when we get 478 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:47,600 Speaker 1: him back. But this is Vladimir Putin flexing his muscles. 479 00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:50,840 Speaker 1: We also have an American that's gone missing in Iraq. 480 00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:53,600 Speaker 1: You may not have heard about that either. You have 481 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:56,439 Speaker 1: an American AID worker that was interact that was taken. 482 00:27:57,400 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 1: Is the White House doing much on that? You got 483 00:27:59,920 --> 00:28:02,560 Speaker 1: to ask yourself the question, now, do they even care 484 00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:06,480 Speaker 1: if Americans are taken? Do they have any muscle left 485 00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:12,439 Speaker 1: in them? Apparently no, right, Apparently we don't have that anymore. 486 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:16,960 Speaker 1: We don't have that type of focus. We don't have 487 00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:21,760 Speaker 1: that type of protection if you are an American and 488 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:25,240 Speaker 1: you're going around the country or excuse me, around the 489 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 1: world and you are taken. I don't think there's any 490 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:33,119 Speaker 1: guarantee now that this administration does anything under the bare minimum. 491 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:37,200 Speaker 1: Under the bare minimum means they move the fingers, they 492 00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:42,360 Speaker 1: click some boxes, they say something, and that's it, and 493 00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:45,240 Speaker 1: then they just kind of let it happen. They just 494 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:47,320 Speaker 1: kind of let it play out for what it is. 495 00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:50,680 Speaker 1: We're not gonna you know, it used to be if 496 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:55,440 Speaker 1: you screwed with an American, you're mad.
