Despite what the Biden administration 4 00:00:23,537 --> 00:00:25,537 Speaker 1: on the attacks and the media might say, it is 5 00:00:25,577 --> 00:00:28,897 Speaker 1: now official the US economy shrank by point nine percent 6 00:00:28,977 --> 00:00:33,257 Speaker 1: last quarter, meaning the US economy is in a recession. 7 00:00:34,057 --> 00:00:37,337 Speaker 1: How a Democrats plan on boosting the American economy by 8 00:00:37,657 --> 00:00:39,617 Speaker 1: raising taxes. Of course, I'll take a look at the 9 00:00:39,697 --> 00:00:42,537 Speaker 1: numbers and the spin from the White House in tonight's 10 00:00:42,937 --> 00:00:52,817 Speaker 1: hold a lot. That's up five thousand for Oh my gosh, boy, 11 00:00:52,937 --> 00:00:56,217 Speaker 1: Not only was I wrong, down nine tenths of one 12 00:00:56,337 --> 00:01:01,257 Speaker 1: percent on first look at second quarter GDP down nine 13 00:01:01,257 --> 00:01:05,497 Speaker 1: tenths of one percent. Okay, I know there's an organization 14 00:01:05,577 --> 00:01:08,697 Speaker 1: that decides whether we're in a recession or not, but investors, 15 00:01:08,937 --> 00:01:12,057 Speaker 1: they're not gonna wait two back to back negative quarters. 16 00:01:12,497 --> 00:01:16,897 Speaker 1: It's not good. Call it whatever you want. It's not good, folks. 17 00:01:17,137 --> 00:01:19,137 Speaker 1: It's not good for the American economy. It's not good 18 00:01:19,137 --> 00:01:22,737 Speaker 1: for the American people. Certainly not good for the Biden 19 00:01:22,817 --> 00:01:26,337 Speaker 1: White House, which really can't afford any more bad news, 20 00:01:26,377 --> 00:01:29,857 Speaker 1: particularly of the kind that can be so directly traced 21 00:01:29,857 --> 00:01:32,617 Speaker 1: to the crappy decision making of the people in charge. 22 00:01:33,537 --> 00:01:36,737 Speaker 1: So here it is second quarter GDP point nine percent 23 00:01:37,017 --> 00:01:40,977 Speaker 1: down in the negative in the red. Two quarters in 24 00:01:41,017 --> 00:01:45,497 Speaker 1: a row here of negative GDP growth. And this is 25 00:01:45,577 --> 00:01:49,697 Speaker 1: certainly not what the Biden regime promise. Remember, I'm not 26 00:01:49,737 --> 00:01:52,377 Speaker 1: going to shut down the economy. I'm gonna shut down 27 00:01:52,417 --> 00:01:54,737 Speaker 1: the virus. Actually didn't shut down the virus, and he 28 00:01:54,777 --> 00:01:59,497 Speaker 1: has definitely partially shut down or hurt the economy. Inflation 29 00:01:59,777 --> 00:02:02,897 Speaker 1: is very bad right now, as we all know, and 30 00:02:03,057 --> 00:02:06,777 Speaker 1: the Biden White House increasingly seems to be run by 31 00:02:06,817 --> 00:02:10,257 Speaker 1: imbeciles who have no idea how markets actually work. And again, 32 00:02:10,297 --> 00:02:13,777 Speaker 1: American growth and productivity up to where it should be 33 00:02:13,937 --> 00:02:17,937 Speaker 1: at this point. Now they are just going to tell 34 00:02:17,977 --> 00:02:20,097 Speaker 1: you things that aren't true. I mean that was obvious 35 00:02:20,137 --> 00:02:23,097 Speaker 1: in the beginning. We've seen in recent days all of 36 00:02:23,137 --> 00:02:27,617 Speaker 1: the efforts to try to redefine what a recession is. 37 00:02:28,177 --> 00:02:31,297 Speaker 1: But everyone's basically looking at this saying, yeah, it's a recession. Okay, 38 00:02:31,337 --> 00:02:33,177 Speaker 1: you can tell us it's not what we know it is. 39 00:02:33,777 --> 00:02:36,937 Speaker 1: So now they're going to try to reframe it in 40 00:02:36,977 --> 00:02:41,257 Speaker 1: an entirely different narrative. It's a transition, you see. It's 41 00:02:41,297 --> 00:02:44,937 Speaker 1: like a transitory phase. If you will remember when inflation 42 00:02:45,017 --> 00:02:48,697 Speaker 1: was transitory. Here's Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre saying, this 43 00:02:48,777 --> 00:02:51,897 Speaker 1: is a transition into a stable and steady growth period. 44 00:02:52,577 --> 00:02:55,057 Speaker 1: We're seeing. What we're seeing is that we are in 45 00:02:55,097 --> 00:02:58,617 Speaker 1: a transition. We had this strong economic growth because of 46 00:02:58,697 --> 00:03:01,897 Speaker 1: the work that this president has done in the past 47 00:03:01,977 --> 00:03:05,177 Speaker 1: eighteen months, and now what we're seeing is a transition 48 00:03:05,217 --> 00:03:11,097 Speaker 1: into stable and steady growth. A transition intostable and steady 49 00:03:11,137 --> 00:03:13,737 Speaker 1: growth will happen when this guy is no longer president 50 00:03:13,777 --> 00:03:16,297 Speaker 1: and the Democrats don't control the Congress and you have 51 00:03:16,337 --> 00:03:20,457 Speaker 1: people in charge who like American fossil fuel energy, like 52 00:03:20,977 --> 00:03:25,617 Speaker 1: the growth of the American economy supports small business. Stop 53 00:03:25,657 --> 00:03:29,617 Speaker 1: all the regulation and taxation and redistribution of wealth, these 54 00:03:29,617 --> 00:03:33,897 Speaker 1: things that don't help. But the Democrats are obsessed with ideologically, 55 00:03:33,977 --> 00:03:36,977 Speaker 1: so they do it anyway. Even Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, 56 00:03:37,017 --> 00:03:40,257 Speaker 1: for example, who has had to admit recently she didn't 57 00:03:40,297 --> 00:03:46,017 Speaker 1: know that a inflation period was coming. Here, she says, oh, yeah, 58 00:03:46,057 --> 00:03:49,297 Speaker 1: don't worry, this is just a new phase of the recovery. 59 00:03:50,137 --> 00:03:53,457 Speaker 1: President Biden is said we've entered a new phase in 60 00:03:53,577 --> 00:04:00,697 Speaker 1: air recovery focused on achieving steady, stable growth without sacrificing 61 00:04:00,737 --> 00:04:06,177 Speaker 1: the gains of the last eighteen month. Yes, a new phase. 62 00:04:06,697 --> 00:04:09,577 Speaker 1: It's a phase where you can't afford groceries and you're 63 00:04:09,657 --> 00:04:12,537 Speaker 1: running a credit card bills on everyday expenses that are 64 00:04:12,537 --> 00:04:15,297 Speaker 1: going to be haunting you for a long time as 65 00:04:15,297 --> 00:04:18,337 Speaker 1: we enter into a recession. And by the way, they 66 00:04:18,377 --> 00:04:20,817 Speaker 1: are assuming that this is as bad and all their 67 00:04:20,857 --> 00:04:22,777 Speaker 1: statements that makes them like, all right, so it's not 68 00:04:22,817 --> 00:04:24,617 Speaker 1: great right now, it's better get a lot better. I 69 00:04:24,657 --> 00:04:26,377 Speaker 1: don't think it's about it a lot better. I think 70 00:04:26,417 --> 00:04:30,577 Speaker 1: we're heading into a real painful recession. All the indicators 71 00:04:30,617 --> 00:04:32,257 Speaker 1: you can point to you right now in terms of 72 00:04:32,297 --> 00:04:37,457 Speaker 1: trajectory are certainly suggesting that the one thing they hold 73 00:04:37,457 --> 00:04:41,417 Speaker 1: on to, the one thing they are hanging their hat on, 74 00:04:41,457 --> 00:04:45,697 Speaker 1: so to speak, is the low official unemployment number. Here 75 00:04:45,737 --> 00:04:49,737 Speaker 1: is Biden Economic advisor Brian d saying it's not a 76 00:04:49,737 --> 00:04:53,537 Speaker 1: recession because of that. In every prior recession in the 77 00:04:53,617 --> 00:04:57,217 Speaker 1: United States, we have lost jobs, and over the course 78 00:04:57,257 --> 00:04:59,737 Speaker 1: of this year so far we have gained two point 79 00:04:59,817 --> 00:05:02,817 Speaker 1: seven million jobs. The unemployment rate today in the United 80 00:05:02,817 --> 00:05:06,177 Speaker 1: States is three point six percent. There's only been a 81 00:05:06,217 --> 00:05:10,217 Speaker 1: couple of months in the last decades that unemployed it 82 00:05:10,297 --> 00:05:15,697 Speaker 1: has been as low. So the jobs market is so great, 83 00:05:16,057 --> 00:05:19,257 Speaker 1: never mind the fact that people are getting paid less 84 00:05:19,257 --> 00:05:21,777 Speaker 1: effectively because their wages don't go as far and because 85 00:05:21,777 --> 00:05:24,617 Speaker 1: the cost of everything goes up, and they don't own 86 00:05:24,697 --> 00:05:26,897 Speaker 1: the kind of assets that are just going to be 87 00:05:26,937 --> 00:05:30,257 Speaker 1: inflated or have been inflated by the economy, So they're 88 00:05:30,617 --> 00:05:32,857 Speaker 1: hurt by this much more so than a lot of 89 00:05:32,857 --> 00:05:37,937 Speaker 1: other people who have those kinds of assets. Also, what's 90 00:05:37,977 --> 00:05:41,777 Speaker 1: the truth of the labor participation rate? Right now? They 91 00:05:41,857 --> 00:05:44,337 Speaker 1: talk about the unemployment rate? Okay, but who's involved here? 92 00:05:44,657 --> 00:05:48,617 Speaker 1: As you see, there's a decline in the labor participation 93 00:05:48,897 --> 00:05:51,657 Speaker 1: rate since your two dials, and it currently stands at 94 00:05:51,657 --> 00:05:55,257 Speaker 1: sixty two point two percent. This is not where it 95 00:05:55,297 --> 00:05:59,537 Speaker 1: should be. A lot of people have dropped out of 96 00:05:59,537 --> 00:06:04,137 Speaker 1: the labor market entirely. So to call that necessarily low unemployment, 97 00:06:04,817 --> 00:06:08,817 Speaker 1: that's a misreading of the situation because there are a 98 00:06:08,897 --> 00:06:12,537 Speaker 1: lot of people that are aren't even trying to work, right, 99 00:06:13,177 --> 00:06:15,817 Speaker 1: So what does this mean for overall productivity and growth 100 00:06:15,817 --> 00:06:19,937 Speaker 1: in GDP? How Democrats don't really care. They've got a 101 00:06:20,097 --> 00:06:22,697 Speaker 1: bill they're passing. They're calling it an anti inflation bill, 102 00:06:22,697 --> 00:06:24,937 Speaker 1: which tells you all you need to know. If they're 103 00:06:24,937 --> 00:06:27,417 Speaker 1: calling an anti inflation bill, it means it's inflationary, which 104 00:06:27,417 --> 00:06:29,377 Speaker 1: it certainly will be because it involves a whole lot 105 00:06:29,417 --> 00:06:33,657 Speaker 1: of spending, including a few hundred billion dollars. They just 106 00:06:33,737 --> 00:06:36,337 Speaker 1: rolled this out today, folks. They got Joe Manchin to 107 00:06:36,377 --> 00:06:38,857 Speaker 1: go along with it in the Senate for the Democrats. 108 00:06:39,337 --> 00:06:43,577 Speaker 1: Now they're pushing a massive spending bill that they say 109 00:06:43,617 --> 00:06:46,417 Speaker 1: they're going to offset by taxing people more so, a 110 00:06:46,577 --> 00:06:50,497 Speaker 1: tax and spend bill. Classic Democrat maneuver here. Right as 111 00:06:50,497 --> 00:06:53,377 Speaker 1: we're going into or rather in a recession, this is 112 00:06:53,377 --> 00:06:56,897 Speaker 1: the move they pull. Here's bid an economic advisor Jared 113 00:06:56,897 --> 00:07:00,577 Speaker 1: Bernstein saying it is a good idea watch if you 114 00:07:00,657 --> 00:07:04,017 Speaker 1: look at the record of how tax increases like this 115 00:07:04,097 --> 00:07:07,737 Speaker 1: play out. Not only do they not hurt jobs or 116 00:07:07,777 --> 00:07:11,097 Speaker 1: investment when you're targeting the very top of the income scale, 117 00:07:11,257 --> 00:07:13,657 Speaker 1: but they will do something that's very important to President 118 00:07:13,657 --> 00:07:16,257 Speaker 1: Biden at the Senator mansion as well. They will further 119 00:07:16,417 --> 00:07:20,857 Speaker 1: reduce the budget deficit that is disinflationary in this environment. So, yes, 120 00:07:21,057 --> 00:07:26,137 Speaker 1: we think this is a very good idea. They've been 121 00:07:26,177 --> 00:07:28,737 Speaker 1: wrong about everything. Does anyone think they're right about this? 122 00:07:29,657 --> 00:07:30,857 Speaker 1: And you know, they don't even have to take my 123 00:07:30,937 --> 00:07:33,377 Speaker 1: word for it because they're raising taxes. That's what they're 124 00:07:33,377 --> 00:07:35,337 Speaker 1: about to do. They're going to raise tax on corporations 125 00:07:35,337 --> 00:07:39,497 Speaker 1: and on high earners. So what a Democrats usually think 126 00:07:39,497 --> 00:07:43,097 Speaker 1: about this, Well, here is somebody they will listen to. Democrats. 127 00:07:43,097 --> 00:07:45,497 Speaker 1: Back in two thousand and nine, Barack Obama said, look, 128 00:07:45,537 --> 00:07:47,817 Speaker 1: you don't raise taxes in a recession. Watch this one. 129 00:07:48,137 --> 00:07:50,617 Speaker 1: You don't raise taxes in a recession. The last thing 130 00:07:50,657 --> 00:07:52,777 Speaker 1: you want to do is to raise taxes in the 131 00:07:52,777 --> 00:07:58,577 Speaker 1: middle of a recession. Oh, yes, you don't want to 132 00:07:58,617 --> 00:08:01,697 Speaker 1: do that. That's a bad idea. And yet the Democrats 133 00:08:01,697 --> 00:08:04,697 Speaker 1: are doing it anyway because this is what they do, 134 00:08:04,737 --> 00:08:07,497 Speaker 1: this is who they are. They've wanted to do it 135 00:08:07,537 --> 00:08:09,897 Speaker 1: all along. And now Joe Biden is trying to buy 136 00:08:10,097 --> 00:08:13,897 Speaker 1: off seniors with some kind of reduction in the price 137 00:08:14,177 --> 00:08:18,097 Speaker 1: of prescriptions under Medicare, while he's going to be overall 138 00:08:19,257 --> 00:08:23,377 Speaker 1: arming the economy, slowing growth and probably pushing up those 139 00:08:23,457 --> 00:08:25,817 Speaker 1: unemployment numbers. People are gonna start losing jobs here if 140 00:08:26,217 --> 00:08:29,137 Speaker 1: this recession is as deep and real as many of 141 00:08:29,257 --> 00:08:31,857 Speaker 1: us think it is.

I just want you. 172 00:10:08,857 --> 00:10:11,577 Speaker 1: You're a business guy, a very successful one by the way, 173 00:10:11,657 --> 00:10:15,017 Speaker 1: so nice nice work on that. So what do you 174 00:10:15,057 --> 00:10:18,337 Speaker 1: think when you see this report today? Point nine percent 175 00:10:18,417 --> 00:10:21,017 Speaker 1: reduction GDP? We're in the Biden recession? How do we 176 00:10:21,057 --> 00:10:25,657 Speaker 1: get here? But the biggest thing I see is a 177 00:10:25,817 --> 00:10:29,297 Speaker 1: single person they've had administration. It is an actual business person. 178 00:10:30,017 --> 00:10:33,057 Speaker 1: They're laryers or they've been in politics. All the lights 179 00:10:33,097 --> 00:10:36,617 Speaker 1: just have no clue about what they're doing. Relative deals, 180 00:10:36,657 --> 00:10:41,297 Speaker 1: economy reverenced Green New Deal, destoring the energy sector, just 181 00:10:41,697 --> 00:10:45,777 Speaker 1: going on, really need business guys like myself there that 182 00:10:45,937 --> 00:10:49,297 Speaker 1: are understanding of how does economy works. This thing is 183 00:10:49,377 --> 00:10:53,057 Speaker 1: very fixable, but very quickly getting our energy back. Call 184 00:10:53,177 --> 00:10:56,497 Speaker 1: robust platform, which is was we already had. They just 185 00:10:56,577 --> 00:11:00,817 Speaker 1: simply destroyed in this book supply chain or you can't 186 00:11:00,817 --> 00:11:04,057 Speaker 1: all bload a vehicle or a container on the vehicle 187 00:11:04,137 --> 00:11:10,017 Speaker 1: in California unless it's younger than five years truck. That's crazy. 188 00:11:10,057 --> 00:11:13,297 Speaker 1: This whole spending thing at DC, which of course is 189 00:11:13,297 --> 00:11:16,177 Speaker 1: a very largest part I's been ruined some time and 190 00:11:16,337 --> 00:11:18,377 Speaker 1: live with there. I means we can't keep boring money 191 00:11:18,417 --> 00:11:22,457 Speaker 1: so intended to be very hard girl that people out 192 00:11:22,457 --> 00:11:25,777 Speaker 1: here are feeling it very badly. Here is just to 193 00:11:25,777 --> 00:11:29,017 Speaker 1: give you a sense of the the spin that the 194 00:11:29,217 --> 00:11:32,497 Speaker 1: Biden team is trying today. Here they are earlier this 195 00:11:32,537 --> 00:11:36,697 Speaker 1: week talking about the technical definition of a recession. Watch 196 00:11:37,097 --> 00:11:40,617 Speaker 1: the technical definition is two quarters of contraction. You're saying 197 00:11:40,657 --> 00:11:44,097 Speaker 1: that's not a recession. That's not the tick. No, that's 198 00:11:44,137 --> 00:11:47,497 Speaker 1: not the technical definition. In terms of the technical definition, 199 00:11:47,537 --> 00:11:50,177 Speaker 1: it's not a recession. The technical definition considers a much 200 00:11:50,217 --> 00:11:54,417 Speaker 1: broader spectrum of data points. That is not the actual 201 00:11:54,497 --> 00:11:58,617 Speaker 1: definition of a recession. It is a significant contractionary period 202 00:11:58,737 --> 00:12:01,817 Speaker 1: over a few months. If we all understand a recession 203 00:12:01,897 --> 00:12:05,697 Speaker 1: to be two consecutive quarters of negative GDP growth in 204 00:12:05,697 --> 00:12:07,697 Speaker 1: a row. And then you have weight House officials co 205 00:12:07,777 --> 00:12:09,897 Speaker 1: appear to say, no, no no, that's not what a recession is. 206 00:12:10,217 --> 00:12:13,457 Speaker 1: It's something else. How is that not redefining recession because 207 00:12:13,457 --> 00:12:18,177 Speaker 1: that's not the definition, That is not the different name. Okay, 208 00:12:18,217 --> 00:12:20,977 Speaker 1: what do you say to this, Jim? Yeah, they could 209 00:12:21,217 --> 00:12:23,097 Speaker 1: come out to Arizona and go with me on the 210 00:12:23,137 --> 00:12:25,137 Speaker 1: campaign trail for a day. They hear a lot of 211 00:12:25,137 --> 00:12:28,937 Speaker 1: four letter words explaining the technical definition of what these 212 00:12:28,937 --> 00:12:31,097 Speaker 1: clowns in DC are doing to our economy. They have 213 00:12:31,217 --> 00:12:33,977 Speaker 1: no idea. Not being business people know what they're doing 214 00:12:34,297 --> 00:12:36,977 Speaker 1: in this race. Here, Buck, I am the guy in 215 00:12:37,017 --> 00:12:39,697 Speaker 1: the race who's created tens of thousands of great American 216 00:12:39,777 --> 00:12:45,057 Speaker 1: dods in the power industry, reowned short American manufacturing, HIGHD veterans. First, 217 00:12:45,537 --> 00:12:48,657 Speaker 1: I understand about the economy. Bring thinking about our campaign, Buck, 218 00:12:48,817 --> 00:12:51,777 Speaker 1: is because of business success. I'm not having to take 219 00:12:51,777 --> 00:12:55,337 Speaker 1: a single pack your live years dollars like my campaign 220 00:12:55,617 --> 00:12:58,737 Speaker 1: opponents have been doing, and like Mark Kelly of course 221 00:12:59,377 --> 00:13:01,817 Speaker 1: is doing so. I'm going there to be true to 222 00:13:01,897 --> 00:13:04,817 Speaker 1: the American people and people of Arizona, do all I 223 00:13:04,897 --> 00:13:07,017 Speaker 1: can buck to get to this country back on square, 224 00:13:07,057 --> 00:13:10,937 Speaker 1: including closing that southern border and getting US economy back 225 00:13:10,977 --> 00:13:14,577 Speaker 1: on trake. What did you think about the h the 226 00:13:14,817 --> 00:13:18,057 Speaker 1: anti inflationary Bill, I think is what they're calling it 227 00:13:18,497 --> 00:13:21,577 Speaker 1: that Senate Democrats now with the help of Joe Mansion 228 00:13:21,617 --> 00:13:26,177 Speaker 1: of West Virginia, have put forward. It's going to spend 229 00:13:26,177 --> 00:13:31,017 Speaker 1: over three hundred and sixty billion dollars on effectively green 230 00:13:31,097 --> 00:13:34,417 Speaker 1: New Deal style programs, you know, solar and wind and 231 00:13:34,457 --> 00:13:38,217 Speaker 1: all this. Do they just not care about inflation? Do 232 00:13:38,297 --> 00:13:41,057 Speaker 1: they think that inflation isn't real? How do you explain 233 00:13:41,137 --> 00:13:45,457 Speaker 1: this one, Jim. I think it's this entire progressive allows 234 00:13:45,497 --> 00:13:48,337 Speaker 1: you to markism that really wants to do harm to 235 00:13:48,417 --> 00:13:52,577 Speaker 1: this country, not help the American tax worker. They're their 236 00:13:52,617 --> 00:13:55,697 Speaker 1: own agenda, you know, set up art from reality, and 237 00:13:55,777 --> 00:13:58,257 Speaker 1: it's very destin that they think they can will buy 238 00:13:58,377 --> 00:14:02,737 Speaker 1: in economics in DC. I'm gonna bring real world economics there. 239 00:14:03,297 --> 00:14:05,897 Speaker 1: But you know, we don't need the government in the 240 00:14:05,897 --> 00:14:08,297 Speaker 1: interduce sector at all. You know, we were doing this 241 00:14:08,417 --> 00:14:13,137 Speaker 1: line before that less regulation allowing private industry to run 242 00:14:13,177 --> 00:14:16,497 Speaker 1: on what the customer wants to buy, and customers want 243 00:14:16,497 --> 00:14:19,217 Speaker 1: to buy renewable, but it is only a small part 244 00:14:19,257 --> 00:14:22,777 Speaker 1: of the overall energy sector. It was moving in just nicely, 245 00:14:22,817 --> 00:14:26,417 Speaker 1: about a one percent clip a year. This disruptive nature 246 00:14:26,497 --> 00:14:29,937 Speaker 1: of taking our fossil fuels away and declaring them, you know, 247 00:14:30,057 --> 00:14:33,337 Speaker 1: some types of evil is absolutely the wrong thing to do. 248 00:14:33,457 --> 00:14:36,777 Speaker 1: And we need that run. This economy inn one out 249 00:14:36,777 --> 00:14:38,737 Speaker 1: here in Arizona. And we're a big state, you know, 250 00:14:38,737 --> 00:14:40,897 Speaker 1: where twice the landmass of Faridas, and we do a 251 00:14:40,897 --> 00:14:44,257 Speaker 1: lot of driving from the state and this craziness and 252 00:14:44,337 --> 00:14:47,537 Speaker 1: our diesel and gas prices are farms or feeling it 253 00:14:47,657 --> 00:14:50,137 Speaker 1: a lot, and the people going to work. I intend 254 00:14:50,177 --> 00:14:53,537 Speaker 1: to be a very corrective force and where we get 255 00:14:53,417 --> 00:14:56,937 Speaker 1: there in January. But and Jamie mentioned the border before, 256 00:14:57,257 --> 00:15:01,377 Speaker 1: I mean, the numbers are just staggering each month. It 257 00:15:01,457 --> 00:15:04,657 Speaker 1: seems like they're setting new records not only for people 258 00:15:04,697 --> 00:15:08,097 Speaker 1: who are admitted into the country with effectively no oversight 259 00:15:08,617 --> 00:15:12,537 Speaker 1: after illegally crossing them order, but also the hundreds of 260 00:15:12,617 --> 00:15:16,137 Speaker 1: thousands of gotaways, people that just made a run for 261 00:15:16,217 --> 00:15:18,017 Speaker 1: it got into the country. We don't know who they are, 262 00:15:18,097 --> 00:15:21,097 Speaker 1: we don't know what they're doing here. Biden administration doesn't 263 00:15:21,137 --> 00:15:23,737 Speaker 1: seem to be willing to do anything to stop this. 264 00:15:23,897 --> 00:15:27,257 Speaker 1: One could even argue they prefer this state of affairs. 265 00:15:27,577 --> 00:15:29,497 Speaker 1: What would you want to push, I mean, what kind 266 00:15:29,497 --> 00:15:32,257 Speaker 1: of legislation as a member of the US Senate when 267 00:15:32,257 --> 00:15:34,297 Speaker 1: it comes to the border, would you want to see through? 268 00:15:34,777 --> 00:15:38,017 Speaker 1: So I know Biden obviously conveto things, but just as 269 00:15:38,057 --> 00:15:40,577 Speaker 1: we understand it from a policy perspective, what would you 270 00:15:40,617 --> 00:15:44,857 Speaker 1: want to see happen at the border? Yeah? Because absolutely invasion. 271 00:15:45,097 --> 00:15:48,217 Speaker 1: I've been endorsed by the National Bordertol Council. I've been 272 00:15:48,217 --> 00:15:51,057 Speaker 1: there and maybe at least a dozen times. Brandon Joe, 273 00:15:51,097 --> 00:15:54,537 Speaker 1: who heads up all twenty one thousand other border guys, 274 00:15:54,977 --> 00:15:57,617 Speaker 1: is strong on the campaign the trail with us and 275 00:15:57,697 --> 00:16:00,897 Speaker 1: Brandon tails are Jim. The taxpayers have been very generous 276 00:16:01,337 --> 00:16:03,897 Speaker 1: in terms of building out their force structure. They have 277 00:16:04,497 --> 00:16:07,617 Speaker 1: may or they need, they have the drones technology. Obviously 278 00:16:07,657 --> 00:16:10,777 Speaker 1: want to finish the wall, but number one is remain 279 00:16:10,897 --> 00:16:14,497 Speaker 1: in Mexico policy, which means of border guys can turn 280 00:16:14,537 --> 00:16:17,617 Speaker 1: away everyone like they hit in twenty twenty had their 281 00:16:17,657 --> 00:16:21,057 Speaker 1: case adjudicated in the state they came from, that would 282 00:16:21,097 --> 00:16:23,577 Speaker 1: immediately fix this problem. But we hit it down to 283 00:16:23,657 --> 00:16:28,137 Speaker 1: two thousand per week getting adjudicated. It's fifty two thousand 284 00:16:28,137 --> 00:16:31,897 Speaker 1: a week present day. And again it's totally intentional of 285 00:16:32,017 --> 00:16:34,977 Speaker 1: these Marxists that are trying to show through their agenda 286 00:16:35,017 --> 00:16:37,897 Speaker 1: with Biden and Mark Kelly here in Arizona eiding and 287 00:16:37,977 --> 00:16:41,177 Speaker 1: abedding and loving it. Americans out here and hate it. 288 00:16:41,497 --> 00:16:44,097 Speaker 1: We're all in for legal immigration, but this being the 289 00:16:44,137 --> 00:16:47,057 Speaker 1: world's raging two camp and military age males coming through 290 00:16:47,097 --> 00:16:52,057 Speaker 1: by the thousands, the guideaways, the terrorists, it's just too much. Buck, 291 00:16:52,417 --> 00:16:54,977 Speaker 1: We're gonna bring into this economy with all of that 292 00:16:55,097 --> 00:16:57,617 Speaker 1: as well, and we've got to stop it and remaining 293 00:16:57,657 --> 00:17:00,857 Speaker 1: Mexico policy. But I will do my utmost shut down 294 00:17:00,897 --> 00:17:03,257 Speaker 1: business in the US Senate. Then we hit that CODI 295 00:17:03,297 --> 00:17:06,737 Speaker 1: fight into law and layman.

We 334 00:19:14,897 --> 00:19:19,177 Speaker 1: don't pay any attention to other issues with respect to that. 335 00:19:20,137 --> 00:19:23,137 Speaker 1: A journey General Merrick Garland appeared on NBC this week 336 00:19:23,177 --> 00:19:27,177 Speaker 1: to entertain questions about holding President Donald Trump accountable for 337 00:19:27,257 --> 00:19:30,777 Speaker 1: his role in the January sixth Capital riot and efforts 338 00:19:30,777 --> 00:19:33,697 Speaker 1: to challenge the results of the twenty twenty election. There 339 00:19:33,777 --> 00:19:37,137 Speaker 1: was the DJ preparing to indict the former president. Let's 340 00:19:37,137 --> 00:19:41,417 Speaker 1: ask former Defense Department official under the Trump presidency. Cash 341 00:19:41,457 --> 00:19:44,897 Speaker 1: Ptel Cash, good to see it. Hey, thanks for having Buck. 342 00:19:45,817 --> 00:19:47,817 Speaker 1: I mean, let's just start with the top line here, 343 00:19:47,937 --> 00:19:52,257 Speaker 1: my man. Do you think they really have the grit, 344 00:19:52,337 --> 00:19:57,657 Speaker 1: the guts, the moxie to bring a criminal indictment against 345 00:19:57,697 --> 00:20:00,257 Speaker 1: the former president of the United States on some nonsense 346 00:20:00,337 --> 00:20:03,457 Speaker 1: like this? Do you think they might actually do it? No? 347 00:20:03,657 --> 00:20:06,497 Speaker 1: I think they don't. They don't have any grit or moxie. 348 00:20:06,537 --> 00:20:11,617 Speaker 1: They have insanity running their political operation, which is supposed 349 00:20:11,657 --> 00:20:13,737 Speaker 1: to be a law enforcement agency, the one I worked 350 00:20:13,737 --> 00:20:16,777 Speaker 1: at as a federal prosecutor DOJ You know, the ironic 351 00:20:16,857 --> 00:20:18,937 Speaker 1: question is you have whoever? That guy was on NBC 352 00:20:19,137 --> 00:20:23,097 Speaker 1: asking the Attorney General are you going to prosecute this 353 00:20:23,337 --> 00:20:26,337 Speaker 1: without and his quote was fear or favor? Are you 354 00:20:26,337 --> 00:20:29,177 Speaker 1: going to prosecute Hunter Biden without fear or favor? Or 355 00:20:29,217 --> 00:20:32,457 Speaker 1: is this just a one standard for the January sixth application? 356 00:20:32,937 --> 00:20:37,097 Speaker 1: And when folks like Liz Cheney come on National TV 357 00:20:37,577 --> 00:20:40,777 Speaker 1: and exonerate the President of the very chart she's been 358 00:20:40,817 --> 00:20:44,537 Speaker 1: trying to convict him of, it's amazing the disinformation campaign 359 00:20:44,617 --> 00:20:48,737 Speaker 1: the media puts on to try to pigeonhole President Trump 360 00:20:49,017 --> 00:20:51,977 Speaker 1: into a false prosecution but it's scary when you have 361 00:20:51,977 --> 00:20:54,617 Speaker 1: the nation's number one law enforcement officer in the Attorney General, 362 00:20:55,057 --> 00:20:58,937 Speaker 1: intimating that they're going to go after it, because that's 363 00:20:58,977 --> 00:21:02,617 Speaker 1: how politically charged our law enforcement and corrupt they have become. 364 00:21:03,017 --> 00:21:05,577 Speaker 1: This is from the Washington Post article that got off. 365 00:21:05,737 --> 00:21:07,337 Speaker 1: You know a lot of clicks earlier in the week 366 00:21:07,377 --> 00:21:10,777 Speaker 1: on this issue. Prosecutors who are questioning is before a 367 00:21:10,777 --> 00:21:14,577 Speaker 1: grand jury, including two top age to Vice President Mike Pennce, 368 00:21:15,017 --> 00:21:18,417 Speaker 1: have asked in recent days about conversations with Trump, his lawyers, 369 00:21:18,417 --> 00:21:21,937 Speaker 1: and others in his inner circle who sought to substitute 370 00:21:21,977 --> 00:21:25,937 Speaker 1: Trump allies for certified electors from some states. Joe Biden one, 371 00:21:26,017 --> 00:21:28,457 Speaker 1: According to two people familiar with the matter, I mean, 372 00:21:28,457 --> 00:21:30,617 Speaker 1: I look at this and I say, well, what do 373 00:21:30,697 --> 00:21:32,937 Speaker 1: they even think the charge is going to be here? 374 00:21:32,937 --> 00:21:37,177 Speaker 1: Like he's objecting within the political process to a certification 375 00:21:37,737 --> 00:21:42,177 Speaker 1: based upon allegations of fraud within the vote count. I 376 00:21:42,217 --> 00:21:44,577 Speaker 1: mean that just sounds like what you would do if 377 00:21:44,577 --> 00:21:48,617 Speaker 1: you thought the vote wasn't legit right, And as President 378 00:21:48,617 --> 00:21:50,937 Speaker 1: Trump has said, he has strongly felt that the vote 379 00:21:50,977 --> 00:21:55,537 Speaker 1: was rigged. So he's executing a constitutional right to investigate 380 00:21:55,577 --> 00:21:58,297 Speaker 1: that matter, and who he talks to and whether he 381 00:21:58,377 --> 00:22:01,057 Speaker 1: talks to anyone about it is in a violation of 382 00:22:01,097 --> 00:22:03,857 Speaker 1: any law. He can do it at infinito. What they 383 00:22:03,857 --> 00:22:06,137 Speaker 1: want to do is parlay that into some sort of 384 00:22:06,177 --> 00:22:09,017 Speaker 1: insurrection charge. And when I was alluding to earlier is 385 00:22:09,097 --> 00:22:12,337 Speaker 1: Liz Chenney coming on National TV and saying President Trump 386 00:22:12,377 --> 00:22:16,497 Speaker 1: never ordered the deployment of the United States military domestically. 387 00:22:16,617 --> 00:22:20,217 Speaker 1: And my response to that was, thanks, Liz, you just 388 00:22:20,297 --> 00:22:23,657 Speaker 1: exonerated the president of the very charge insurrection that you wanted. 389 00:22:23,697 --> 00:22:26,097 Speaker 1: It is illegal. I agree with you for a president 390 00:22:26,177 --> 00:22:29,897 Speaker 1: to order the domestic deployment of the military. What is lawful, 391 00:22:29,937 --> 00:22:33,497 Speaker 1: as you know, Buck, is the authorization of National Guard 392 00:22:33,537 --> 00:22:37,137 Speaker 1: to his enforcement. And the record's clear President Trump did 393 00:22:37,177 --> 00:22:39,457 Speaker 1: that days beforehand. And now they're trying to put this 394 00:22:39,497 --> 00:22:43,497 Speaker 1: disinformation campaign to say President Trump committed insurrection because he 395 00:22:43,577 --> 00:22:47,657 Speaker 1: didn't commit an unconstitutional act and ordered Downtown DC to 396 00:22:47,737 --> 00:22:53,057 Speaker 1: be invaded like downtown Kandahart. Also, you mentioned the sedition 397 00:22:53,217 --> 00:22:56,697 Speaker 1: here or whatever they're calling it in this Washington Post 398 00:22:56,697 --> 00:23:00,057 Speaker 1: piece on the possible prosecution of former President Trump. The 399 00:23:00,217 --> 00:23:03,297 Speaker 1: writers but this way, there are two principal tracks of 400 00:23:03,337 --> 00:23:07,137 Speaker 1: the investigation that could ultimately lead to additional scrutiny of Trump. 401 00:23:07,217 --> 00:23:12,177 Speaker 1: The first centers on seditious conspiracy and conspiracy to obstruct 402 00:23:12,217 --> 00:23:15,177 Speaker 1: a government proceeding, the type of charge has already filed 403 00:23:15,177 --> 00:23:18,057 Speaker 1: against individuals who stormed the capital on January sixth. The 404 00:23:18,137 --> 00:23:21,337 Speaker 1: second involves potential fraud associated with the false electors scheme 405 00:23:21,777 --> 00:23:24,457 Speaker 1: or pressure Trumpet his allies put on the Justice Department, 406 00:23:24,937 --> 00:23:29,297 Speaker 1: I mean pressure on the Justice Department. The second part 407 00:23:29,337 --> 00:23:30,897 Speaker 1: of it just seems laughable to me. I mean, like 408 00:23:30,897 --> 00:23:33,417 Speaker 1: the false what you know, what are you in for, buddy, Oh, 409 00:23:33,457 --> 00:23:37,977 Speaker 1: I'm serving ten years for questioning electors or something. I mean, 410 00:23:38,097 --> 00:23:43,337 Speaker 1: it's ridiculous. The first one sounds intense, right, seditious conspiracy, 411 00:23:44,377 --> 00:23:47,497 Speaker 1: which has I believe, never been successfully charged against a 412 00:23:47,537 --> 00:23:49,777 Speaker 1: person in the history of the United States. So you 413 00:23:49,817 --> 00:23:53,617 Speaker 1: would have Democrats here the first time ever charging a 414 00:23:53,657 --> 00:23:56,937 Speaker 1: former president with a crime, and charging a former president 415 00:23:56,937 --> 00:23:59,857 Speaker 1: with a crime that most likely here would be never 416 00:23:59,937 --> 00:24:02,257 Speaker 1: charged against any human being in the history of the country. 417 00:24:02,537 --> 00:24:05,457 Speaker 1: That seems like a pretty big ask. Well, you have 418 00:24:05,577 --> 00:24:07,777 Speaker 1: the people reporting it as the Washington Post, who I 419 00:24:07,817 --> 00:24:10,377 Speaker 1: remind your audience with the same people that said President 420 00:24:10,377 --> 00:24:12,097 Speaker 1: Trump was a Russian agent and he was going to 421 00:24:12,137 --> 00:24:14,497 Speaker 1: be charged for hijacking the election, when I think the 422 00:24:14,537 --> 00:24:16,697 Speaker 1: exact opposite proved to be true, and it was the 423 00:24:16,737 --> 00:24:19,777 Speaker 1: Democrats who illegally use the FBI and justice system. And 424 00:24:19,857 --> 00:24:22,017 Speaker 1: it seems that they're team that one up again here, 425 00:24:22,377 --> 00:24:27,937 Speaker 1: just instant, excuse me, replace the Russia Gate narrative with 426 00:24:28,097 --> 00:24:31,777 Speaker 1: the now January sixth narrative and throw around fancy big 427 00:24:31,817 --> 00:24:35,617 Speaker 1: words like insurrection and sedition and it makes it sound like, wow, 428 00:24:35,657 --> 00:24:37,737 Speaker 1: everybody's got to read up on this. But you're right, 429 00:24:38,097 --> 00:24:40,137 Speaker 1: you know, look at me as a former federal prosecutor. 430 00:24:40,137 --> 00:24:42,097 Speaker 1: You charge a case where the facts meet the law, 431 00:24:43,097 --> 00:24:48,097 Speaker 1: not where disinformation and politics is supposed to take a 432 00:24:48,097 --> 00:24:51,297 Speaker 1: political narrative and falsely meet the law. And that's what 433 00:24:51,337 --> 00:24:53,657 Speaker 1: they're doing here. They can try to investigate it. What 434 00:24:53,697 --> 00:24:56,577 Speaker 1: they want here is its single to run out until 435 00:24:56,617 --> 00:24:59,137 Speaker 1: the November mid terms and beyond so that they can 436 00:24:59,177 --> 00:25:03,697 Speaker 1: continuously talk about Donald Trump being possibly indicted or impeach, 437 00:25:03,817 --> 00:25:06,097 Speaker 1: because that's what they want. They don't want Donald Trump 438 00:25:06,177 --> 00:25:08,257 Speaker 1: to ever run again for president. And the only way 439 00:25:08,257 --> 00:25:12,017 Speaker 1: that happens is two ways, if he's impeached successfully and convicted, 440 00:25:12,377 --> 00:25:14,937 Speaker 1: or if he's convicted of a felony after being charged 441 00:25:14,937 --> 00:25:17,177 Speaker 1: by the Department of Justice. So these are why these 442 00:25:17,257 --> 00:25:20,857 Speaker 1: narratives are bandied about, because they are terrified of the 443 00:25:20,897 --> 00:25:24,417 Speaker 1: prospect of Donald Trump running, especially with Joe Biden. Well, 444 00:25:24,417 --> 00:25:26,497 Speaker 1: I don't even know what he's doing anymore, but you 445 00:25:26,537 --> 00:25:29,177 Speaker 1: know you're putting you mentioned Hunter Biden before him is wondering. 446 00:25:29,217 --> 00:25:32,257 Speaker 1: You know you were, you were a federal prosecutor before 447 00:25:33,697 --> 00:25:37,457 Speaker 1: you think they might have the stones? Once again, I'm 448 00:25:37,457 --> 00:25:39,217 Speaker 1: looking for words here. I mean, do they have the 449 00:25:39,257 --> 00:25:42,177 Speaker 1: balls to prosecute Hunter this DJ I'll just say it. 450 00:25:43,817 --> 00:25:46,577 Speaker 1: This Attorney General might not, but you know who does 451 00:25:46,657 --> 00:25:49,737 Speaker 1: the US Attorney for Delaware, who's a Trump holdover. And 452 00:25:49,817 --> 00:25:51,297 Speaker 1: by the way, I've said it before and I'll say 453 00:25:51,297 --> 00:25:53,417 Speaker 1: it on your show. Hunter Biden will be indicted for 454 00:25:53,497 --> 00:25:57,337 Speaker 1: tax run. It is unavoidable at this point with the 455 00:25:57,337 --> 00:25:59,537 Speaker 1: evidence that has been borne out of the remember the 456 00:25:59,697 --> 00:26:04,937 Speaker 1: disinformation John Hunter Biden's laptop. It's shocking now. Even CNN 457 00:26:04,977 --> 00:26:07,857 Speaker 1: reported yesterday in one of its headlines Hunter Biden is 458 00:26:07,897 --> 00:26:11,537 Speaker 1: being properly investigating for leading the federal tax code, which 459 00:26:11,537 --> 00:26:14,217 Speaker 1: is a crime. And you know what's easy about prosecuting 460 00:26:14,217 --> 00:26:17,297 Speaker 1: tax cases. The numbers following the money and the bank 461 00:26:17,297 --> 00:26:20,017 Speaker 1: account numbers never lie. It's one of the easiest cases 462 00:26:20,017 --> 00:26:22,617 Speaker 1: you can bring. And that's why I believe he's going 463 00:26:22,657 --> 00:26:24,537 Speaker 1: to be indicted. I just don't know the timeline of 464 00:26:24,577 --> 00:26:30,417 Speaker 1: its commute or pardon. What do you think you know 465 00:26:30,497 --> 00:26:34,457 Speaker 1: that would be? You know I've heard this spoken about 466 00:26:34,537 --> 00:26:37,937 Speaker 1: that that would cause Joe Biden to act and pardon 467 00:26:38,057 --> 00:26:40,697 Speaker 1: his son, which would cause him to basically say I'm 468 00:26:40,737 --> 00:26:43,377 Speaker 1: never running again for president. And I think the Democrats 469 00:26:43,377 --> 00:26:45,457 Speaker 1: would get their wish, which is now they don't want 470 00:26:45,537 --> 00:26:48,457 Speaker 1: him anywhere near the White House, him or Kamala. So 471 00:26:48,857 --> 00:26:52,497 Speaker 1: maybe that's his exit strategy. Should have come to that. 472 00:26:52,497 --> 00:26:54,417 Speaker 1: But we all know that Joe Biden's lied about his 473 00:26:54,497 --> 00:26:57,977 Speaker 1: participation in the Hunter Biden scandal and criminal affair. He 474 00:26:57,977 --> 00:26:59,457 Speaker 1: says he had nothing to do with it. Now we've 475 00:26:59,457 --> 00:27:02,577 Speaker 1: got fourteen calls and we have a recorded message saying 476 00:27:02,857 --> 00:27:05,137 Speaker 1: from the President to his son, you're in the clear. 477 00:27:06,057 --> 00:27:08,137 Speaker 1: That doesn't sound like anyone who had nothing to do 478 00:27:08,417 --> 00:27:11,537 Speaker 1: with Barizma, China, Russia and the millions your kid gun 479 00:27:11,617 --> 00:27:14,977 Speaker 1: paid because you're a VP. It does not doesn't cash. 480 00:27:15,137 --> 00:27:17,577 Speaker 1: Good to see who's always man. Thanks for being with us. 481 00:27:17,577 --> 00:27:21,537 Speaker 1: Thanks Buck, have a great time. Emails obtained by the 482 00:27:21,537 --> 00:27:23,977 Speaker 1: Washington Free Beacon show.

That's why you need a new privacy 491 00:27:47,857 --> 00:27:51,897 Speaker 1: and cybersecurity application tool called Secure. It's spelled SEK. You are. 492 00:27:52,377 --> 00:27:56,257 Speaker 1: Secure is using proprietary encryption and offering secure instant messaging 493 00:27:56,297 --> 00:27:59,257 Speaker 1: and email with secure all of your communications based on 494 00:27:59,297 --> 00:28:02,337 Speaker 1: servers and data centers hosted in Switzerland without using any 495 00:28:02,337 --> 00:28:05,217 Speaker 1: get the big tech platforms.

We've known 508 00:28:43,697 --> 00:28:45,577 Speaker 1: for over a year now that big tech has been 509 00:28:45,617 --> 00:28:49,217 Speaker 1: actively censoring Americans who spoke out against orthodoxy when it 510 00:28:49,217 --> 00:28:52,377 Speaker 1: came to COVID nineteen and vaccines. But today we're getting 511 00:28:52,377 --> 00:28:55,417 Speaker 1: new information showing that the Centers for Disease Control actually 512 00:28:55,417 --> 00:28:58,177 Speaker 1: worked hand in hand with big tech companies to squash 513 00:28:58,217 --> 00:29:01,337 Speaker 1: to send on their platforms. Litigation counsel for the New 514 00:29:01,457 --> 00:29:04,777 Speaker 1: Civil Liberties Alliance, Janine Unis, has been on the front 515 00:29:04,897 --> 00:29:09,257 Speaker 1: line exposing the lies of pandemic orthodoxy, and she joins me, now, 516 00:29:10,057 --> 00:29:12,817 Speaker 1: thanks for being with us, Thank you so much for 517 00:29:12,897 --> 00:29:16,857 Speaker 1: having me. So this is interesting because people will have 518 00:29:16,937 --> 00:29:19,297 Speaker 1: been thinking this was going on for some time. Here's 519 00:29:19,297 --> 00:29:22,017 Speaker 1: the Washington Free Beacon reporting on it. Over the course 520 00:29:22,017 --> 00:29:24,777 Speaker 1: of at least six months, starting in December twenty twenty, 521 00:29:24,937 --> 00:29:28,897 Speaker 1: CDC officials regularly communicated with personnel at Twitter, Facebook, and 522 00:29:29,017 --> 00:29:34,457 Speaker 1: Google over vaccine misinformation. At various times, CDC officials would 523 00:29:34,497 --> 00:29:37,617 Speaker 1: flag specific posts by users on social media platforms such 524 00:29:37,617 --> 00:29:42,697 Speaker 1: as Twitter as example posts to censor. Is this I mean? 525 00:29:42,777 --> 00:29:45,137 Speaker 1: You know, we often talk about first amendmaging and people 526 00:29:45,177 --> 00:29:47,497 Speaker 1: will say, well, if it's not the government, they can 527 00:29:47,537 --> 00:29:49,657 Speaker 1: do whatever they want. Is the government allowed to tell 528 00:29:49,737 --> 00:29:52,937 Speaker 1: companies you got to shut those guys down. No, the 529 00:29:53,057 --> 00:29:55,977 Speaker 1: government isn't. And that's sort of the big struggle that's 530 00:29:55,977 --> 00:29:57,737 Speaker 1: going on here. So I actually had a case, and 531 00:29:57,777 --> 00:30:00,217 Speaker 1: there were a couple of other people head cases justin 532 00:30:00,337 --> 00:30:04,737 Speaker 1: Hart and the Children's Defense, Children's Health Defense, that we're 533 00:30:04,817 --> 00:30:08,177 Speaker 1: dismissed because the judge said that you can't show that 534 00:30:08,217 --> 00:30:10,897 Speaker 1: the government is driving this censor ship for all you know, 535 00:30:11,017 --> 00:30:12,977 Speaker 1: these companies might have done it on their own. And 536 00:30:13,137 --> 00:30:16,297 Speaker 1: sure the government has made these statements because as beginning 537 00:30:16,297 --> 00:30:19,257 Speaker 1: in about April or May of twenty twenty one, various 538 00:30:19,777 --> 00:30:23,057 Speaker 1: officials within the Biden administration we're seeing things like if 539 00:30:23,097 --> 00:30:26,137 Speaker 1: big tech doesn't do much more to censor COVID misinformation, 540 00:30:26,657 --> 00:30:30,897 Speaker 1: then we might, you know, we might impose regulatory or 541 00:30:30,897 --> 00:30:33,737 Speaker 1: other legal commences. So it was our contention that those 542 00:30:33,777 --> 00:30:36,337 Speaker 1: threats were enough to show that the government was coursing 543 00:30:36,337 --> 00:30:38,937 Speaker 1: the tech companies, and that's a First Amendment violation. But 544 00:30:39,057 --> 00:30:42,337 Speaker 1: these emails, and there was also a revelation in June 545 00:30:42,737 --> 00:30:45,857 Speaker 1: where it became clear that there's this Disinformation Governance Board 546 00:30:45,897 --> 00:30:49,857 Speaker 1: within dh CHESS that was similar. It's orchestrating, it's using 547 00:30:49,857 --> 00:30:52,257 Speaker 1: these tech companies to direct censorship of Americans, and that 548 00:30:52,897 --> 00:30:56,217 Speaker 1: is unlawful and courts should start finding it unlawful. I mean, 549 00:30:56,217 --> 00:30:58,137 Speaker 1: you had a quote from an article in the Tablet 550 00:30:58,177 --> 00:31:01,217 Speaker 1: where you wrote that the natural tendency of censorship is 551 00:31:01,257 --> 00:31:06,377 Speaker 1: to lock in an ever narrower and more counterproductive echo chamber. 552 00:31:07,057 --> 00:31:09,737 Speaker 1: It has been shocking to a lot of people, I think, 553 00:31:10,097 --> 00:31:17,097 Speaker 1: see just how how rigid and unconcerned with correcting things 554 00:31:17,577 --> 00:31:19,937 Speaker 1: they've been all along here, especially when it comes to 555 00:31:19,977 --> 00:31:22,977 Speaker 1: COVID orthodoxy and what's allowed what's not allowed. I mean, 556 00:31:23,057 --> 00:31:26,737 Speaker 1: still to this day social media platforms are they put 557 00:31:26,857 --> 00:31:30,097 Speaker 1: this COVID warning on the bottom of anything that there's 558 00:31:30,137 --> 00:31:33,617 Speaker 1: not sort of COVID approved, And now it seems that 559 00:31:33,657 --> 00:31:38,337 Speaker 1: there was at least implicit, if not explicit, government demands 560 00:31:38,417 --> 00:31:41,937 Speaker 1: for this behind the scenes. Yeah, that's right, and that's 561 00:31:41,937 --> 00:31:44,377 Speaker 1: what these emails show. Even more, another thing that was 562 00:31:44,417 --> 00:31:46,897 Speaker 1: in the emails that I found rather shocking is that 563 00:31:46,937 --> 00:31:50,697 Speaker 1: the CDC accepted a fifteen million dollar quote unquote gift 564 00:31:50,737 --> 00:31:53,617 Speaker 1: of ad space from Facebook so that the government could 565 00:31:53,697 --> 00:31:57,057 Speaker 1: run its messages on Facebook. Well, at the same time, 566 00:31:57,137 --> 00:32:00,537 Speaker 1: the CDC, it's the CDC is the branch of the 567 00:32:00,537 --> 00:32:03,977 Speaker 1: government that's doing this. Um, they're also suppressing the views 568 00:32:03,977 --> 00:32:06,417 Speaker 1: of Americans that they don't just that they don't agree 569 00:32:06,457 --> 00:32:10,017 Speaker 1: with through um, you know, using tech companies. So they're 570 00:32:10,097 --> 00:32:12,497 Speaker 1: really tilting the scale in their own favor, where only 571 00:32:12,497 --> 00:32:15,377 Speaker 1: the government's message has hurt or the government's message has 572 00:32:15,417 --> 00:32:18,977 Speaker 1: heard much more. And as you know, another component of 573 00:32:19,017 --> 00:32:21,057 Speaker 1: this that I think is really important is that the 574 00:32:21,097 --> 00:32:23,737 Speaker 1: government has gotten so many things wrong and things that 575 00:32:23,817 --> 00:32:27,057 Speaker 1: were misinformation yesterday, like masks don't really do very much 576 00:32:27,297 --> 00:32:29,657 Speaker 1: done the spread of COVID, the vaccines don't seem to 577 00:32:29,657 --> 00:32:31,657 Speaker 1: be very good at stopping transmission. Well, now we know 578 00:32:31,697 --> 00:32:34,097 Speaker 1: they're true, and that sort of exemplifies why we have 579 00:32:34,137 --> 00:32:37,417 Speaker 1: a First Amendment. The framers of the Constitution recognized that 580 00:32:37,497 --> 00:32:40,057 Speaker 1: it's important to have dissent, that sometimes the majority voice 581 00:32:40,097 --> 00:32:42,297 Speaker 1: is wrong and the up in government is wrong. What 582 00:32:42,377 --> 00:32:45,417 Speaker 1: kind of damages or what kind of redresses there? I mean, 583 00:32:45,497 --> 00:32:48,297 Speaker 1: let's say that these emails, for example, prove that there 584 00:32:48,337 --> 00:32:50,657 Speaker 1: really was and I mean I certainly believe there was. 585 00:32:50,697 --> 00:32:52,217 Speaker 1: I think we know there was. But let's say you 586 00:32:52,217 --> 00:32:55,457 Speaker 1: can prove in court that there was a concerted government 587 00:32:55,457 --> 00:32:59,777 Speaker 1: effort to collude with the social media platforms to silence 588 00:32:59,857 --> 00:33:04,177 Speaker 1: certain perspectives on COVID. If that really is provable, what 589 00:33:04,337 --> 00:33:08,657 Speaker 1: can happen? I mean, can people get monetary compensament? What 590 00:33:08,937 --> 00:33:12,457 Speaker 1: goes on in the legal sense? I think it may 591 00:33:12,457 --> 00:33:15,377 Speaker 1: be hard to get monetary compensation. But what we're hoping 592 00:33:15,417 --> 00:33:18,257 Speaker 1: for is that in our case, which we're appealing, and 593 00:33:18,577 --> 00:33:21,097 Speaker 1: various other cases, we're hoping that the government, sorry, the 594 00:33:21,137 --> 00:33:23,497 Speaker 1: courts say this is illegal. The government cannot do that. 595 00:33:23,497 --> 00:33:27,057 Speaker 1: That's called declaratory and in junct of relief and basically 596 00:33:27,057 --> 00:33:28,977 Speaker 1: just as the government cannot engage in this sort of 597 00:33:29,257 --> 00:33:34,457 Speaker 1: behavior anymore. Yeah, yeah, I mean, well that would be good. 598 00:33:34,537 --> 00:33:35,777 Speaker 1: It would be good if we could actually get the 599 00:33:35,777 --> 00:33:38,457 Speaker 1: government to respect the first Amendment to the Constitution. By 600 00:33:38,457 --> 00:33:43,057 Speaker 1: the way, there's other areas where concerns about censorship and 601 00:33:43,097 --> 00:33:47,417 Speaker 1: the application of it via the federal government are coming up. 602 00:33:47,457 --> 00:33:50,497 Speaker 1: For example, Vice President Kamala Harris put out a statement 603 00:33:50,497 --> 00:33:54,577 Speaker 1: on the White House Task Force to address Online Harassment 604 00:33:54,617 --> 00:33:57,657 Speaker 1: and Abuse. This is a statement. This task force will 605 00:33:57,697 --> 00:34:00,297 Speaker 1: tackle a threat that has been far too real for 606 00:34:00,337 --> 00:34:03,697 Speaker 1: far too many people for far too long. Oh god. 607 00:34:04,097 --> 00:34:07,497 Speaker 1: The collective work will help modernize the federal government's response 608 00:34:07,537 --> 00:34:10,177 Speaker 1: to violence against women and people of all genders. It 609 00:34:10,217 --> 00:34:13,737 Speaker 1: will lead to more evidence informed policies and interventions, and 610 00:34:13,817 --> 00:34:17,257 Speaker 1: it will support more federal funding to address online harassment 611 00:34:17,297 --> 00:34:21,577 Speaker 1: and abuse. How is the federal government going to be 612 00:34:21,617 --> 00:34:26,337 Speaker 1: policing online harassment? I'm very curious to see what this 613 00:34:26,417 --> 00:34:29,297 Speaker 1: is supposed to look like. Yeah, well, I would like 614 00:34:29,377 --> 00:34:31,457 Speaker 1: to know that too. Actually, that was what the tablet 615 00:34:31,577 --> 00:34:34,297 Speaker 1: article I wrote that you cited earlier was actually about. 616 00:34:35,097 --> 00:34:37,937 Speaker 1: I mean, these are very poorly thought out initiatives. I 617 00:34:37,977 --> 00:34:40,857 Speaker 1: think they're sort of feel good. They sound good, you know, Oh, 618 00:34:40,937 --> 00:34:43,817 Speaker 1: who wouldn't want to fight online harassment and abuse? But 619 00:34:43,817 --> 00:34:45,737 Speaker 1: when you really think about it, what it means is 620 00:34:45,737 --> 00:34:49,457 Speaker 1: the government is again inserting itself and whose voices are 621 00:34:49,497 --> 00:34:52,017 Speaker 1: heard and who's our silence. What is abuse, What is 622 00:34:52,057 --> 00:34:56,017 Speaker 1: harassment is disagreeing with somebody harassment. People are constantly reporting 623 00:34:56,057 --> 00:34:58,617 Speaker 1: each other on Twitter because they're you know, offended because 624 00:34:58,617 --> 00:35:01,257 Speaker 1: someone called them a name, and this is really not 625 00:35:01,377 --> 00:35:03,577 Speaker 1: The government should really not be involved in this. And 626 00:35:03,777 --> 00:35:05,377 Speaker 1: I think one of the reasons that courts are so 627 00:35:05,457 --> 00:35:08,137 Speaker 1: reluctant to do anything is because it's really new territory. 628 00:35:08,257 --> 00:35:10,377 Speaker 1: We just haven't seen anything like this before because of 629 00:35:10,377 --> 00:35:13,177 Speaker 1: the nature of social media. But I do think that, 630 00:35:13,257 --> 00:35:15,737 Speaker 1: you know, if fifty years ago the government had been 631 00:35:15,737 --> 00:35:18,257 Speaker 1: telling the New York Times, you really shouldn't be running 632 00:35:18,417 --> 00:35:20,097 Speaker 1: pieces about you know, x Y and Z or this 633 00:35:20,217 --> 00:35:22,857 Speaker 1: perspective on X Y and Z, the courts would have 634 00:35:22,857 --> 00:35:25,217 Speaker 1: recognized that was the First Amendment violation and they should 635 00:35:25,217 --> 00:35:27,377 Speaker 1: do that here because that's what's going on. The government 636 00:35:27,457 --> 00:35:29,737 Speaker 1: is deciding ultimately who gets to be heard and who 637 00:35:29,857 --> 00:35:32,057 Speaker 1: is silenced. Just going back for a second to the 638 00:35:32,097 --> 00:35:35,057 Speaker 1: COVID censorship issue. I don't know if you saw this, Janine, 639 00:35:35,057 --> 00:35:37,817 Speaker 1: but the World Health Organization became so desperate to censor 640 00:35:37,857 --> 00:35:41,617 Speaker 1: Americans about the pandemic that they were recruiting infhodemic managers 641 00:35:42,097 --> 00:35:47,857 Speaker 1: who were everyday Americans reporting misinformation online. This flyer for 642 00:35:47,897 --> 00:35:53,017 Speaker 1: recruiting for this program states wanted infhodemic manager Unicorn, recruiting 643 00:35:53,057 --> 00:35:55,977 Speaker 1: the first global cohort of infodemic managers to support health 644 00:35:55,977 --> 00:36:00,537 Speaker 1: authorities and addressing COVID nineteen misinformation scan and apply. I 645 00:36:00,577 --> 00:36:02,697 Speaker 1: can't even believe, guys, are we sure that's even real? 646 00:36:02,777 --> 00:36:06,337 Speaker 1: I guess it does have the seal. It's so ridiculous. 647 00:36:06,457 --> 00:36:09,657 Speaker 1: It's so ridiculous, and I think it's also really important. 648 00:36:09,937 --> 00:36:11,617 Speaker 1: I think, you know, what's going to happen is some 649 00:36:11,657 --> 00:36:14,177 Speaker 1: people will argue, and even some libertarians argue that what's 650 00:36:14,177 --> 00:36:17,057 Speaker 1: happening here is that the companies and the government have 651 00:36:17,097 --> 00:36:19,537 Speaker 1: the same aim. You know, the companies are mostly left 652 00:36:19,577 --> 00:36:21,857 Speaker 1: wing and they want to be suppressing this information as well, 653 00:36:21,937 --> 00:36:24,937 Speaker 1: so they're working together, and therefore that's okay. But you know, 654 00:36:25,017 --> 00:36:28,137 Speaker 1: we need to recognize that there's an inherent power imbalance here. 655 00:36:28,297 --> 00:36:31,417 Speaker 1: The government has been overtly threatening the tech companies, and 656 00:36:31,857 --> 00:36:34,297 Speaker 1: it's during this time that the tech companies are giving 657 00:36:34,657 --> 00:36:38,497 Speaker 1: the government fifteen million dollar gifts and then doing their bidding. 658 00:36:39,257 --> 00:36:41,537 Speaker 1: That this is not a partnership that you know should 659 00:36:41,537 --> 00:36:44,337 Speaker 1: be allowed. The government should not be in this business, 660 00:36:44,337 --> 00:36:47,937 Speaker 1: and the courts have to recognize that. Denean, appreciate the expertise. 661 00:36:47,977 --> 00:36:52,697 Speaker 1: Thanks for being with us, Thank you so much. Whistleblowers 662 00:36:52,697 --> 00:36:55,337 Speaker 1: are making new claims about corruption at the FBI, saying 663 00:36:55,337 --> 00:36:59,857 Speaker 1: that agents are being pressured to inflate domestic violent extremism numbers. 664 00:37:00,497 --> 00:37:02,337 Speaker 1: We'll have that store for you in tonight's cricket. Stay 665 00:37:02,377 --> 00:37:13,057 Speaker 1: with us. Whistleblowers are claiming the FBI is padding domestic 666 00:37:13,137 --> 00:37:16,857 Speaker 1: terrorism numbers, and DC Mayor Buriel Bowser wants to activate 667 00:37:16,897 --> 00:37:20,057 Speaker 1: the National Guard to help her city dealt the influx 668 00:37:20,097 --> 00:37:22,777 Speaker 1: of illegal immigrants. We have those stories and quickets. Let's 669 00:37:22,777 --> 00:37:25,657 Speaker 1: get right to it. Look, there's a lot of politics 670 00:37:25,697 --> 00:37:28,977 Speaker 1: inside of the National security apparatus that shouldn't be there 671 00:37:28,977 --> 00:37:31,417 Speaker 1: at all. This was true even when I was there 672 00:37:31,457 --> 00:37:34,417 Speaker 1: working at the CIA as an analyst, and it certainly 673 00:37:34,457 --> 00:37:37,497 Speaker 1: has become even more true in recent years, where the 674 00:37:37,617 --> 00:37:41,017 Speaker 1: National security apparatus has been used as a political weapon 675 00:37:41,537 --> 00:37:46,057 Speaker 1: against Republicans, most notably against Donald Trump the soft who 676 00:37:46,137 --> 00:37:49,097 Speaker 1: effort to throw him out with the Russia collusion lie, 677 00:37:49,777 --> 00:37:52,497 Speaker 1: but also internally, there's a lot of pressure just in 678 00:37:52,537 --> 00:37:56,617 Speaker 1: the day to day to focus on and create a 679 00:37:56,697 --> 00:38:02,497 Speaker 1: greater need for a focus on the issues that Democrats 680 00:38:02,577 --> 00:38:06,937 Speaker 1: decide have some political salience for them. Here are some 681 00:38:06,977 --> 00:38:10,497 Speaker 1: whistleblowers that are claiming who are claiming the FBI padding 682 00:38:10,577 --> 00:38:13,977 Speaker 1: domestic violent extremism numbers From a letter to the FBI 683 00:38:14,017 --> 00:38:16,057 Speaker 1: director from Ranking House due to share a Committee member 684 00:38:16,137 --> 00:38:20,977 Speaker 1: Jim Jordan. From recent protected disclosures, we have learned that 685 00:38:21,097 --> 00:38:26,537 Speaker 1: FBI officials are pressuring agents to reclassify cases as domestic 686 00:38:26,577 --> 00:38:29,737 Speaker 1: valent extremism even if the cases do not meet the 687 00:38:29,777 --> 00:38:33,617 Speaker 1: criteria for such a classification. Given the narrative pushed by 688 00:38:33,617 --> 00:38:36,577 Speaker 1: the Biden administration that domestic valent extremism is the greatest 689 00:38:36,577 --> 00:38:40,057 Speaker 1: threat facing our country, the revelation of the FBI may 690 00:38:40,057 --> 00:38:43,657 Speaker 1: be artificially padding domestic terrorism data is scandalous. Look, let's 691 00:38:43,657 --> 00:38:49,497 Speaker 1: be clear, it's domestic terrorism that is rooted in white supremacy, 692 00:38:49,777 --> 00:38:53,137 Speaker 1: and that they tie to the Republican Party or Conservatives 693 00:38:53,137 --> 00:38:55,577 Speaker 1: in some way. That's what a whole narrative, that's what 694 00:38:55,657 --> 00:38:57,297 Speaker 1: the threat is really supposed to be, the threat of 695 00:38:57,297 --> 00:39:00,177 Speaker 1: white supremacist terrorism that's going to destroy the whole country 696 00:39:00,177 --> 00:39:03,257 Speaker 1: and terrous all apart, and that is to be blamed 697 00:39:03,257 --> 00:39:06,417 Speaker 1: on Trump supporters and those who wear MAGA have rights. 698 00:39:06,777 --> 00:39:10,417 Speaker 1: That's what this is really supposed to be. And of 699 00:39:10,417 --> 00:39:12,257 Speaker 1: course they're living on the FBI to make it seem 700 00:39:12,297 --> 00:39:15,097 Speaker 1: like a bigger problem because there aren't a lot of 701 00:39:15,137 --> 00:39:18,177 Speaker 1: domestic white supremacists terrorists walking around. In fact, I've never 702 00:39:18,217 --> 00:39:22,177 Speaker 1: even seen or met one. But they want to exaggerate 703 00:39:22,217 --> 00:39:24,537 Speaker 1: that threat because it is a political club, but they 704 00:39:24,577 --> 00:39:30,537 Speaker 1: can use against their political adversaries. Then in DC, which 705 00:39:30,577 --> 00:39:32,457 Speaker 1: you would think as it's a city that's over ninety 706 00:39:32,457 --> 00:39:36,337 Speaker 1: five percent registered Democrat, you think they would think the 707 00:39:36,377 --> 00:39:39,777 Speaker 1: influx of illegal migrants to their city is a fantastic thing. 708 00:39:39,857 --> 00:39:44,097 Speaker 1: Illegal migrants are the foundation upon which Democrats believe this 709 00:39:44,217 --> 00:39:48,257 Speaker 1: nation is built, make us all wealthier and wiser and 710 00:39:48,417 --> 00:39:53,017 Speaker 1: better and all that stuff. Right. Meanwhile, DC Mayor Bowser 711 00:39:53,137 --> 00:39:56,897 Speaker 1: is calling for activating the National Guard to handle the 712 00:39:56,937 --> 00:40:01,657 Speaker 1: influx of illegal migrants, saying it's a humanitarian crisis. Watch, well, 713 00:40:01,377 --> 00:40:05,577 Speaker 1: we need space and we need the federal government to 714 00:40:05,577 --> 00:40:08,937 Speaker 1: be embalmed. So I've asked for the deployment of the 715 00:40:08,977 --> 00:40:10,937 Speaker 1: Guard as long as we need the Guard to deal 716 00:40:10,937 --> 00:40:15,777 Speaker 1: with a humanitarian crisis that we expect to escalate the 717 00:40:15,897 --> 00:40:19,977 Speaker 1: number of people crossing the border seeking asylum, we expect 718 00:40:20,017 --> 00:40:24,537 Speaker 1: to only go up, and we need to make sure 719 00:40:24,577 --> 00:40:27,697 Speaker 1: that there is a national response, not an ad hawc 720 00:40:28,097 --> 00:40:35,177 Speaker 1: city by city, state by state response. Ah, what's the issue? 721 00:40:35,177 --> 00:40:38,137 Speaker 1: By the way, I mean they I'm sure that they're 722 00:40:38,217 --> 00:40:42,977 Speaker 1: just working jobs and paying taxes and no drain on resources. 723 00:40:43,017 --> 00:40:45,457 Speaker 1: That's what we're always told by Democrats. So what's the 724 00:40:45,537 --> 00:40:49,857 Speaker 1: issue they won't tell us? Isn't that so interesting? The 725 00:40:50,017 --> 00:40:53,697 Speaker 1: Biden administration is offered to exchange Russian arms trafficker Victor 726 00:40:53,777 --> 00:40:57,577 Speaker 1: Bout for w NBA player Brittany Griner after months of 727 00:40:57,577 --> 00:41:00,977 Speaker 1: internal debate. The Biden administration is offered to exchange about 728 00:41:01,017 --> 00:41:05,457 Speaker 1: a convicted Russian arms dealer serving a twenty five year 729 00:41:05,577 --> 00:41:07,737 Speaker 1: US prison sentence as part of a potential deal to 730 00:41:07,737 --> 00:41:10,857 Speaker 1: secure the release of two Americans held by Russia, Britney 731 00:41:10,857 --> 00:41:15,177 Speaker 1: Grinder and Paul Whalen. According to people brief on the matter, So, 732 00:41:15,337 --> 00:41:17,417 Speaker 1: just in case you don't a Victor Bout is the 733 00:41:17,497 --> 00:41:21,137 Speaker 1: guy who the movie Lord of War with Nicholas Cage 734 00:41:21,137 --> 00:41:23,217 Speaker 1: starring in the lead role, is based on. It is 735 00:41:23,217 --> 00:41:26,737 Speaker 1: based on Victor bout so he was a big arms trafficker, 736 00:41:26,777 --> 00:41:28,537 Speaker 1: and at the fall of the Soviet Union he was 737 00:41:28,577 --> 00:41:32,137 Speaker 1: taking those guns and tanks and whatever else he could 738 00:41:32,177 --> 00:41:36,177 Speaker 1: get and selling them to countries or to militia groups 739 00:41:36,257 --> 00:41:39,377 Speaker 1: or whomever all of the world. And now, because the 740 00:41:39,377 --> 00:41:43,097 Speaker 1: Bide administration is feeling the pressure to get Britney Grinder, 741 00:41:43,137 --> 00:41:46,417 Speaker 1: specifically out Paul Whalen too, but the Grinder issue is 742 00:41:46,497 --> 00:41:49,537 Speaker 1: much bigger for the Biden White House, they are willing 743 00:41:49,577 --> 00:41:52,737 Speaker 1: to make this exchange, which I think is only going 744 00:41:52,777 --> 00:41:58,177 Speaker 1: to result, unfortunately, in more Americans being detained by adversarial 745 00:41:58,337 --> 00:42:02,577 Speaker 1: regimes and demanding such a swab. That's ever Tonight's hold 746 00:42:02,577 --> 00:42:05,137 Speaker 1: the line. The No Spin News with Bill O'Reilly is next. 747 00:42:05,137 --> 00:42:20,857 Speaker 1: Shield High
