1 00:00:01,200 --> 00:00:04,080 Speaker 1: Welcome in his verdict for Senator Ted Cruz Ben Ferguson 2 00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:07,080 Speaker 1: with you, a huge ruling from the Supreme Court has 3 00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:09,400 Speaker 1: come down on affirmative action. We're going to get to 4 00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:13,080 Speaker 1: that in a moment, plus a religious liberty case victory 5 00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:14,840 Speaker 1: that we want to get you up to date on. 6 00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:18,400 Speaker 1: But before we get to that, James Comer has come out, 7 00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:22,680 Speaker 1: Senator and said that Joe Biden made six policy decisions 8 00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:27,920 Speaker 1: that indicate that he is and these are his words, compromised. 9 00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:30,880 Speaker 1: I want to get your reaction to this, as he 10 00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:34,240 Speaker 1: has now said, they can connect dots. They've identified these 11 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:38,879 Speaker 1: six specific policy decisions that President Joe Biden made that 12 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:42,720 Speaker 1: indicate that he has compromised by people that I guess 13 00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:44,800 Speaker 1: he owes favors to Your reaction to. 14 00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:48,040 Speaker 2: That, well, every day the facts continue to get worse 15 00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 2: and worse about Joe Biden and Hunter Biden. As you noted, 16 00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:56,320 Speaker 2: James Comer said just this week that his committee has 17 00:00:56,360 --> 00:01:00,319 Speaker 2: identified a total of six decisions, four of which were 18 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 2: made while Joe Biden was president early on. And then 19 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:07,400 Speaker 2: this is a quote. We cannot come to any other 20 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:10,280 Speaker 2: conclusion as to why these decisions were made other than 21 00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:15,320 Speaker 2: the fact that this president is compromised. Comber continued, quote, 22 00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:20,119 Speaker 2: this was organized crime. There's no other way to define it. 23 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 2: And here's what Comber continued to say. We're going to 24 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 2: try to determine how much money the Bidens took and 25 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:30,280 Speaker 2: what role Joe Biden played in all of this. It's 26 00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:35,320 Speaker 2: a huge puzzle. And then he provided some very real specifics. 27 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:39,479 Speaker 2: Here's what Comber stated, quote around thirty to forty different 28 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 2: banks and about that many different shell companies. This is 29 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:46,480 Speaker 2: an organized attempt by the Biden family to hide the 30 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 2: source of money going into these shell companies and to 31 00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:52,000 Speaker 2: distract from the IRS so that they wouldn't have to 32 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 2: pay taxes on it. And that's exactly what the IRS 33 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 2: whistleblowers alleged in the transcribed interview with the Ways and 34 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:04,560 Speaker 2: Means Committee, that the Biden family never paid money on 35 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:08,120 Speaker 2: any of these wires that came into these shell companies. 36 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,639 Speaker 2: Comer went on to say that the Biden family businesses 37 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,760 Speaker 2: of the over the course of several years, received at 38 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 2: least ten million dollars from Romania and from China. A 39 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 2: total of nine Biden family members received payments, including two 40 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 2: of Joe Biden's grandchildren and I don't know about you, 41 00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 2: but it's pretty typical for grandchildren to be receiving payments 42 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:36,120 Speaker 2: from Romania and China. Yeah, totally normal and in fact, 43 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 2: and a lot of this. Breitbart has a great article 44 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 2: that lays a lot of these facts out. But Breitbart 45 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 2: continues pointing out that Celtic Capri Corps in its twenty 46 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:52,240 Speaker 2: seventeen tax returns listed nearly ten million dollars without specifying 47 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 2: revenue line items and raising real concerns about who paid 48 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,959 Speaker 2: that entity, particularly in the wake of Biden's alleged link 49 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 2: to a five million dollar Ukrainian bribery scheme. And I'll 50 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 2: point out that Breitbart then quotes from this podcast and says, quote, 51 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:12,919 Speaker 2: You're looking at a tax return that has a ten 52 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 2: million dollars in cash that came from a mystery source. 53 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,640 Speaker 2: And I always like when I'm reading for a press story, 54 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 2: quoting from the podcast saying that that suggests that what 55 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 2: we're covering here matters and it's moving the news forward. 56 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 3: You know. 57 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 1: One of the other things that I think is so 58 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:34,359 Speaker 1: interesting now is how long this investigation took. 59 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 3: Senator. 60 00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 1: It was five years, and the whistle blowers that have 61 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 1: now come forward are saying, we believe the reason why 62 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 1: this thing dragged on for so long is because they 63 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 1: were actually wanting to slow play it so that the 64 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 1: statue of limitations for certain years and taxes would then 65 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 1: click in so that we ran out of time. In 66 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 1: other words, this investigation was a five year investigation, not 67 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 1: because there was so much to go through, but because 68 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 1: they wanted to make sure that some years that were 69 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 1: very damning, that could be major crimes, would just fall off. 70 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 1: And that's exactly now what this whistleblower said when he 71 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 1: did the most recent interviews. There's money that was never 72 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:21,600 Speaker 1: paid on millions of income that we know of that 73 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 1: we can do nothing about now because the statue of limitations. 74 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 1: That to me is also a shocking abuse of power. 75 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:34,720 Speaker 1: If in fact the DOJ was purposely saying, keep slowing up, 76 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:37,040 Speaker 1: keep slowing up, and then oh, well, we can't charge 77 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:38,040 Speaker 1: him anymore. 78 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:41,359 Speaker 2: Well, that's exactly right. And there's two other pieces of 79 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 2: breaking news that that are broken within the last twenty 80 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:48,719 Speaker 2: four hours that are highly relevant to the Biden cover up. One, 81 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:52,479 Speaker 2: as you noted, is is the most serious claims were 82 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:56,359 Speaker 2: the potential FARA violations and far as the foreign agent's 83 00:04:56,480 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 2: Registration Act concerning twenty fourteen and twenty fifth. Hunter Biden's 84 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 2: most problematic conduct was in twenty fourteen and twenty fifteen, 85 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,840 Speaker 2: So you had FARA violations potentially, and then you had 86 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:13,720 Speaker 2: very serious criminal tax violations. And essentially what happened is 87 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 2: they slow walked it long enough for the statute of 88 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 2: limitations to run on those so that Hunter Biden faces 89 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 2: no liability whatsoever. Now, one of the two pieces of 90 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 2: new news that has broken is that US Attorney Weiss, 91 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 2: who was in charge of this, wanted to bring charges 92 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:40,600 Speaker 2: in both the District of Columbia and the Central District 93 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 2: of California, and he was turned down. What we have 94 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 2: discovered since then is that the US attorney in DC, Graves, 95 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:57,599 Speaker 2: who was appointed by Joe Biden, had been a donor 96 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:00,919 Speaker 2: to Joe Biden on two separate occasions. Graves gave to 97 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 2: Biden five hundred dollars in April twenty twenty and one 98 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 2: thousand dollars in May of twenty twenty. So one of 99 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 2: the two US attorneys who said no, we're not going 100 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 2: to bring charges against Hunter is a Joe Biden donor. 101 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 2: The other US attorney as strata in the Central District 102 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 2: of California was a Kamala Harris donor, and specifically, in 103 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 2: twenty fifteen, Estrada gave five hundred dollars to then California 104 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 2: Attorney General Kamala Harris. So you literally had donors to 105 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 2: Joe Biden and Kamala Harris saying no, we don't want 106 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 2: to bring the really serious charges against Hunter Biden that 107 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:47,599 Speaker 2: raises obvious conflicts of interest that the Biden DOJ. It 108 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 2: continues to be, sadly the most political attorney general and 109 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 2: the most political DOJ we've ever seen. 110 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 1: You were, I think the first Senator that I know of, 111 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 1: and if I'm wrong, I apologize, But that called for 112 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 1: the real possibility of impeaching Merrick Garland over his testimony 113 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 1: to Congress. Now, seeing what you have seen, do you 114 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:13,320 Speaker 1: believe that there are going to be many more elected 115 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 1: officials coming to the same conclusion that not only is 116 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:20,000 Speaker 1: this Department of Justice corrupt, but the leader lied to 117 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 1: Congress and knew he was lying to cover up for 118 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 1: his boss, the President of the United States of America. 119 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 2: Look, either these irs whistleblowers are lying or Merrick Garland 120 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 2: is guilty of lying under oath to Congress an obstruction 121 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 2: of justice. It's one of the two. It is possible 122 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 2: the whistleblowers are lying. We need to investigate that and 123 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 2: determine that. I will say, on the face of it, 124 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 2: the indissia, we have a lot of reason to believe 125 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 2: they're credible witnesses. They're not partisan Republicans, they don't have 126 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 2: an axe to grind. But if they are telling the truth, 127 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:58,280 Speaker 2: then Merrick Garland lied under oath to Congress in response 128 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 2: to my questioning, that is a felony with jail time. 129 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 2: And if they're telling the truth, Merrick Garland and lawyers 130 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 2: working for him are also responsible for obstruction of justice, 131 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 2: which is yet another felony. If that is true, I 132 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 2: think it is inevitable for any reasonable or rational member 133 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 2: of Congress, by which I mean sadly zero Democrats and 134 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 2: some Republicans. I think the inevitable conclusion is that Garland 135 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:31,080 Speaker 2: must be impeached. The reason I say zero Democrats it 136 00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 2: doesn't matter. I don't think the Democrats will vote to 137 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:35,840 Speaker 2: impeach him, even if it is proven if they have 138 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 2: videotape of the committing felonies, the Democrats are not going 139 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,839 Speaker 2: to vote to impeach him because it's all partisan politics 140 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 2: to them. Whether Republicans vote or not, I don't know, 141 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,840 Speaker 2: but I think the evidence is becoming more and more compelling, 142 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 2: and I will say so. On Monday's podcast, I called 143 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,160 Speaker 2: for the Department of Justice to appoint a special counsel 144 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,559 Speaker 2: to investigate Merrick Garland and whether to prosecute him for 145 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,199 Speaker 2: lying under oath and obstruction justice. And I will say 146 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 2: that got a lot of folks talking. I know on 147 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 2: Megan Kelly's podcast, she was wondering, well, wait a second, 148 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 2: is there a conflict between this and impeachment. Let me 149 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 2: be clear, both should be pursued. Absolutely, the House should 150 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 2: open an impeachment investigation into Merrick Garland determine whether or 151 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:25,360 Speaker 2: not these irs whistleblowers are telling the truth. That absolutely 152 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 2: should happen. Simultaneously, the Department of Justice should appoint a 153 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 2: special counsel because these are felonies that on the face 154 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:37,200 Speaker 2: of it, there is serious, incredible evidence that Attorney General 155 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 2: Merrick Garland committed. 156 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:40,840 Speaker 1: I want to ask you one last question on this, 157 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 1: and that is the media narrative. We are now starting 158 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 1: to see more consistent coverage and. 159 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 3: That could go away. 160 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 1: But I do believe that we are seeing a media 161 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 1: that realizes now they can't get away from this any 162 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 1: longer because there's too many people that are coming out, 163 00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 1: in my opinion, who are just telling the truth, and 164 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 1: there's too many secrets that are coming out now that 165 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:06,520 Speaker 1: they cannot stop. When you look at it center from 166 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:10,440 Speaker 1: that perspective, what is the point of no return for 167 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:13,679 Speaker 1: Joe Biden with his relationship with the media. He has 168 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,439 Speaker 1: been protected, But I also think there's a weird time 169 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 1: clock here. If you're gonna get rid of Joe Biden 170 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 1: as the candidate, you better do it quickly because you 171 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:25,839 Speaker 1: need to find your next horse. And it seems now 172 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 1: like they're saying, Okay, do we get rid of him 173 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:28,200 Speaker 1: or do we not? 174 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 3: Do we let him fall? Do we not? Do we 175 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 3: prop him up? Do we not? 176 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,319 Speaker 1: There's a lot of politics in this from the Democrats 177 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 1: now they didn't have to deal with even a month ago. 178 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:39,079 Speaker 2: Look, that's exactly right. I guarantee you there are a 179 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:42,679 Speaker 2: lot of Democrats getting worried right now. They're still counting 180 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 2: on the corrupt corporate media to cover for Joe Biden. 181 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 2: But we're seeing cracks in the wall, and CBS had 182 00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 2: the one of the two irs whistleblowers on the six 183 00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 2: o'clock news. That was a big deal. I'll tell you 184 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:01,199 Speaker 2: another story that broke this week again on CBS News. 185 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 2: It's a story from Catherine Herridge, who's done some good 186 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 2: reporting for CBS. She's one of the few reporters there 187 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 2: that's actually willing to actually track down news. Let me 188 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 2: just read you the headline from CBS. Quote Hunter, Biden's 189 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 2: former business partner was willing to go before a grand jury. 190 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:23,199 Speaker 2: He never got the chance. And this is, of course 191 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 2: Tony Babolinski, who testified that Joe Biden was involved in 192 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 2: the business dealings, the business dealings with China. He testified 193 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,960 Speaker 2: he came forward and said that ten percent for the 194 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 2: big guy. The big guy was Joe Biden. Now, Biden 195 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 2: has flat out denied that as recently as this week. 196 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:45,200 Speaker 2: He's told reporters no, wasn't me. I didn't do it. No, no, no, 197 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:47,320 Speaker 2: no details. By the way, he just keeps yelling no 198 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 2: at reporters. You know, he's kind of like a grumpy 199 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:53,679 Speaker 2: old man in his front yard with a shotgun, screaming 200 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:56,839 Speaker 2: get off my lawn. He just keeps screaming no, no, no, 201 00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 2: And that's the total explanation the White House is giving. 202 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 2: But here's what CBS reported, which is that Tony Babolinski 203 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 2: was willing to testify before the grand jury, and his 204 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:11,719 Speaker 2: attorney affirmatively reached out to the office of Delaware US 205 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:19,200 Speaker 2: Attorney David Weiss. Weiss didn't return their calls. So the 206 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:22,840 Speaker 2: obvious inference is the order from the Department of Justice 207 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 2: is we don't want the big guy. If you've got 208 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 2: a witness who testifies about the big guy, we don't 209 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 2: want to hear about it. We're not interested. We want 210 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:34,160 Speaker 2: to plunge our head in the sand like an Ostrich 211 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:37,560 Speaker 2: because the job of d OJ is protect the big guy. 212 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 2: That is yet another example of at best malfeasance, but 213 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 2: at worse, active obstruction of justice from main Justice, shutting 214 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 2: down investigations into very serious evidence of criminality by Joe 215 00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:03,440 Speaker 2: Biden because they didn't want Joe Biden implicated, notwithstanding the evidence. 216 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 1: I got to ask you one more question about David 217 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:08,200 Speaker 1: Weison since you just brought that up, and this is 218 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 1: obviously the media has been obsessed with David Weiss as 219 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: he was Trump appointed. 220 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 3: Trump appointed. 221 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 1: You explained in the last podcast how that's incredibly misleading 222 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:19,560 Speaker 1: because without the two Democratic senators, he would never have 223 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:23,080 Speaker 1: gotten the job. He's a Democrat, he's not a Republican, 224 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,680 Speaker 1: and it's pretty absurd to imply that he's a Trump guy, 225 00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:27,560 Speaker 1: especially what we're seeing here. 226 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:29,600 Speaker 3: But the fact that Weiss. 227 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:32,640 Speaker 1: Didn't return the phone call, now, how damning is that 228 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 1: to David Weiss and this investigation. And before you answer that, 229 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 1: let me tell everybody about our friends, Augusta Precious Metals. 230 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 1: If you have been saving for retirement for a long time, 231 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 1: you need to understand that you can protect your money 232 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,560 Speaker 1: with a gold Ira.

Senator Back to David Weiss. 253 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 1: If he didn't return their phone call, it's probably because 254 00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 1: he knew exactly what he was going to hear from 255 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:57,720 Speaker 1: Tony Bobolinski and he didn't want to admit that he 256 00:14:57,800 --> 00:14:58,160 Speaker 1: hurt it. 257 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 2: Well maybe, and I will say one thing you said 258 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 2: we don't necessarily necessarily know is true. You said that 259 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:08,120 Speaker 2: Weiss is a Democrat. We don't know that. What we 260 00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 2: know is that he was not a vocal and outspoken Republican. 261 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 2: And we also know that his appointment is US Attorney 262 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:18,760 Speaker 2: under Trump had to be signed off on by both 263 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 2: Democrat Senators Chris Coons and Tom Carper. So there's no 264 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 2: evidence I'm aware of that he's actively a Democrat, but 265 00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:29,560 Speaker 2: he's not. Every time the media refers to him as 266 00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:32,960 Speaker 2: Donald Trump appointed US attorney, they're trying to suggest he's 267 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 2: a Republican and a Trump partisan. There is zero evidence 268 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 2: of that. He may be a Democrat, but we simply 269 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:41,680 Speaker 2: don't know. What we do know is that Tony Bobolinsky 270 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:43,640 Speaker 2: said at a press conference. This is a quote from 271 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 2: Tony Bobolinski quote. I've heard Joe Biden say that he's 272 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 2: never discussed business with Hunter. That is false. I have 273 00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:57,560 Speaker 2: first hand knowledge about this because I directly dealt with 274 00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:04,080 Speaker 2: the Biden family, including Joe Biden, and CBS News contacted 275 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:06,800 Speaker 2: him and baby Lensky says he stands by those statements. 276 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 2: And so the fact that when his attorney called David 277 00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 2: Wise and said, hey, if you want me to talk 278 00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:14,240 Speaker 2: to the grand jury about this, they didn't call him back, 279 00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 2: what it tells you is DOJ did not want to 280 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 2: hear that evidence. What we don't know is whether it 281 00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 2: was David Weis who didn't want to hear it, or 282 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:26,920 Speaker 2: whether it was the higher ups a DOJ that were 283 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:29,680 Speaker 2: preventing him from going down that line. Because we talked 284 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:32,800 Speaker 2: about in both Monday and Wednesday's pods, and I will say, 285 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:36,200 Speaker 2: if you're interested in this story, Monday and Wednesday's pods 286 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:39,200 Speaker 2: this week are exceptionally important because we do deep dives. 287 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:43,280 Speaker 2: We've covered three new major pieces of breaking news on 288 00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 2: Hunter Biden in this podcast. But there's a lot in 289 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:49,320 Speaker 2: Monday and Wednesday that we went into, including the fact 290 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:55,440 Speaker 2: that that main Justice and that the US attorneys actively 291 00:16:55,640 --> 00:17:01,600 Speaker 2: prevented investigation into the Big Guy. Assistant US attorney working 292 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 2: for David Weiss actively prevented investigation into the Big Guy, 293 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 2: into Hunter Biden's father. And so that is consistent with 294 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:14,360 Speaker 2: what the whistleblowers told us, which is they didn't want 295 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:19,639 Speaker 2: to hear anything anything, anything that implicated Joe Biden in 296 00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 2: criminality and not calling Tony Bobelinski back is one hundred 297 00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 2: percent consistent with the whistleblowers testimony, which, among other things, 298 00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:32,159 Speaker 2: raises the likelihood that the whistleblower is telling the truth. 299 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 2: And Merrick Garland lied under oath to Congress and committed 300 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:41,679 Speaker 2: felonies for which impeachment is merited and for which a 301 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:43,680 Speaker 2: special counsel should be appointed. 302 00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:46,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, and as you mentioned, if you missed the last 303 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:49,399 Speaker 1: two shows, go back download them. And make sure that 304 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:50,920 Speaker 1: you listen because we have a lot more in there. 305 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:52,680 Speaker 3: I want to move to. 306 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 1: The Supreme Court case that is rocked the liberal mindset today, 307 00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:59,960 Speaker 1: the liberal world. They are genuinely freaking out right now. 308 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 1: The Supreme Court has ruled that racial preferences are unconstitutional 309 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:14,200 Speaker 1: in college admissions. The racial preferences in college admissions violate, 310 00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:17,320 Speaker 1: they said, the equal Protection Clause the Constitution. The Supreme 311 00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:21,040 Speaker 1: Court has decided in this historic decision, it will have 312 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:24,760 Speaker 1: profound implications for racial preference in many areas of law 313 00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:28,000 Speaker 1: and public policy. But there was two cases that they 314 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:30,120 Speaker 1: looked at here. One of them dealt with an Ivy 315 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:33,439 Speaker 1: League school. The other one dealt with unc And in 316 00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:37,160 Speaker 1: both of these cases they said, you cannot give basically 317 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:42,360 Speaker 1: extra credit or points or bonuses, or have quotas solely 318 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:47,040 Speaker 1: based on the color of someone's skin. Explain this in 319 00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:51,800 Speaker 1: more detail and specifically how the Fourteenth Amendment applies in 320 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:52,480 Speaker 1: these cases. 321 00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:54,120 Speaker 3: Well, because there's been a lot of debate about that. 322 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 2: Well, this decision yesterday is a major landmark decision. It 323 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 2: is a six three decision. The majority opinion is written 324 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 2: by Chief Justice Roberts, and this decision strikes down racial 325 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:14,359 Speaker 2: discrimination and racial quotas in universities. As you noted, there 326 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:17,640 Speaker 2: were two cases that were consolidated. One was the University 327 00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 2: of North Carolina. Now that is relevant because UNC is 328 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 2: a state school, so it is action by the government. 329 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:26,760 Speaker 2: And what the court concluded is that the fourteenth Amendment 330 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 2: to the Constitution, which protects grants every citizen the equal 331 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 2: protection of the laws, that under the fourteenth Amendment, the 332 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:39,480 Speaker 2: government cannot discriminate based on race. So every government school, 333 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,880 Speaker 2: whether you're talking about UNC, whether you're talking about University 334 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:45,920 Speaker 2: of Texas, whether you're talking about University of California, if 335 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 2: it is a government school, they cannot discriminate based on race. 336 00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:53,400 Speaker 2: That's a landmark ruling. The other case was Harvard University. Now, 337 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 2: Harvard University is not a government school. It is a 338 00:19:56,600 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 2: private university. The fourteenth Amendment does not con strict what 339 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:04,640 Speaker 2: a private university does. The fourteenth Amendment applies only to government. 340 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:09,840 Speaker 2: So the ruling about Harvard University concerned Title seven, which 341 00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:15,359 Speaker 2: is the landmark civil rights decision, and also Title six. 342 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:18,639 Speaker 2: It's actually Title six of the Civil Rights Act of 343 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:22,919 Speaker 2: nineteen sixty four, which governs university, and it concluded the 344 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 2: same standard applies that under the Civil Rights Act of 345 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 2: nineteen sixty four, at likewise under the Fourteenth Amendment, that 346 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 2: racial discrimination is illegal. The consequences are massive. Two days ago, 347 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:41,680 Speaker 2: under existing Supreme Court precedent, it was permissible for UNC 348 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:44,919 Speaker 2: and for Harvard and for every other school to say, 349 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 2: if we like your race, if it's a race that 350 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 2: we want to favor, we can give you a benefit, 351 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:53,880 Speaker 2: we can give you a plus factor. We can favor 352 00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:57,800 Speaker 2: you entirely because of your race. And if we don't 353 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:01,879 Speaker 2: like your race, we can penalize you, we can harm you, 354 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:06,160 Speaker 2: we can reduce your chances of admission entirely because of race. 355 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:08,640 Speaker 2: The Supreme Court, by a six ' to three vote 356 00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:12,760 Speaker 2: yesterday said that is unconstitutional with state schools, that is 357 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:17,399 Speaker 2: illegal with private schools. Discriminating based on race is wrong. 358 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:22,360 Speaker 1: When you see this case, how will this change things, 359 00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:26,159 Speaker 1: not just in the school admissions process, but now And 360 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 1: they've been screaming on TV about this all day long, 361 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 1: that this is going to destroy minorities chances to succeed. 362 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:36,399 Speaker 1: That's clearly not the case in college admissions. In fact, 363 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 1: affirmative action has been hurting Asian Americans for quite some time. 364 00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:43,120 Speaker 1: In a major way, not being able to get into 365 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:47,120 Speaker 1: some universities with incredible qualifications. They're saying, this is also 366 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:50,960 Speaker 1: going to destroy this country in businesses and private sector 367 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 1: as well. Put that into perspective. 368 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 2: Well, this is a landmark change because every university that 369 00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:01,239 Speaker 2: was engaged in racial to discrimination is going to have 370 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 2: to change their admissions policies. Now, I fear the vast 371 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:10,880 Speaker 2: majority of universities are going to do everything they can 372 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 2: to get around and to fight and to engage in 373 00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:20,360 Speaker 2: massive resistance to this decision. The vast majority of our universities, 374 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:27,600 Speaker 2: the faculty and the administrators bizarrely want as a matter 375 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:31,119 Speaker 2: of principle, as a matter of virtue, they want to 376 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 2: discriminate based on race. And the bizarre thing is, look, 377 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:39,399 Speaker 2: one of the parades of horribles that you will see leftists, 378 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:46,560 Speaker 2: whether Democrats or corrupt corporate media voices or university administrators say, 379 00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:50,800 Speaker 2: is without discriminating based on race, we will get lily 380 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 2: white schools. That that's the specter that they put forth. Now, 381 00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 2: they are a host of ways that you can ensure 382 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:04,320 Speaker 2: sure that you have a diverse student body without discriminating 383 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:07,600 Speaker 2: on race. The most obvious one that some universities do 384 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:11,800 Speaker 2: is to give a preference for low income students, a 385 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:16,720 Speaker 2: student who is from a poor family, a student who 386 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:19,639 Speaker 2: has struggled to overcome adversity. And I think there's a 387 00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:23,480 Speaker 2: very reasonable and principled argument that a student who is 388 00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:26,959 Speaker 2: overcoming adversity, that that's a real sense of accomplishment. That 389 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 2: if you grow up with enormous privilege and enormous advantages 390 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:33,399 Speaker 2: and you do well, great, But if you're a single 391 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:37,560 Speaker 2: mom in a really tough environment and you excel academically, 392 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:43,520 Speaker 2: that reflects something positive or beneficial. That will produce student 393 00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 2: bodies that are racially diverse. But what it will not do. 394 00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:54,840 Speaker 2: So the existing university racial preferences benefit African American students 395 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 2: and Hispanic students whose parents are rich, who go to 396 00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:00,560 Speaker 2: a fancy boarding school, but yet they just view it 397 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:02,679 Speaker 2: as race. And so if you happen to be a 398 00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:06,760 Speaker 2: minority student with very significant socioeconomic advantages, you get an 399 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:09,639 Speaker 2: enormous boost. And if you happen to be a poor 400 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,040 Speaker 2: white student. Let's say you're growing up in Appalachia and 401 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:14,560 Speaker 2: your parents no one in the family has ever gone 402 00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:18,159 Speaker 2: to college, and you work your tail off, well, they 403 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:22,280 Speaker 2: don't recognize that, and so if universities want to, they 404 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:26,280 Speaker 2: can number one create a preference for low income students 405 00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:29,480 Speaker 2: to give an additional benefit to overcoming adversity. They can 406 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:34,119 Speaker 2: number two create a benefit if you're the first person 407 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:36,640 Speaker 2: in your family to go to college. That's another way 408 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 2: that we know will statistically produce a more racially diverse 409 00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 2: student body. They can number three create a preference if 410 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:46,040 Speaker 2: you grow up in a household where English is not 411 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 2: the first language. All three of those are non racial 412 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:53,679 Speaker 2: proxies that result in a racially diverse student body. Now 413 00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 2: here's the amazing thing, ben most of our universities don't 414 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 2: care even if they can get the exact same damn 415 00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:06,159 Speaker 2: student body they had yesterday in terms of racial breakdown. 416 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:12,120 Speaker 2: They affirmatively want to discriminate on race. It shows them 417 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:15,679 Speaker 2: I am woe care me roar. And so you're going 418 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:20,440 Speaker 2: to see a couple of things happen. Number one, there's 419 00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:23,480 Speaker 2: a portion of this decision where the majority says, look, 420 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:30,120 Speaker 2: nothing in this case means that universities cannot consider overcoming adversity, 421 00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:35,399 Speaker 2: overcoming discrimination, overcoming hardship. What's going to happen is in 422 00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:40,160 Speaker 2: university essays, the schools are going to try very hard 423 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 2: to replicate exactly the affirmative action and quota system they 424 00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:47,000 Speaker 2: had before. And by the way, if someone is a 425 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:50,679 Speaker 2: minority student, every student is going to be coached that 426 00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:55,840 Speaker 2: they're opening sentence is going to be as a Hispanic 427 00:25:55,960 --> 00:26:01,440 Speaker 2: kid growing up in hardship, here's the adversity of as 428 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:06,240 Speaker 2: an African American. Here's all of the hardships I overcame. 429 00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:11,920 Speaker 2: That will be the game to get around the system. 430 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:16,320 Speaker 2: And here's the second piece, Ben. You may have noticed 431 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 2: universities all aroun across the country in the past year 432 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:24,240 Speaker 2: announcing that they're eliminating the SAT and the ACT, announcing 433 00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:28,120 Speaker 2: that those tests are optional. And you may have wondered why. 434 00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 2: I mean, look, when you and I went to school, 435 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 2: we had to take either the SAT or ACT. It 436 00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:35,440 Speaker 2: used to be every school required that. Why have they 437 00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:37,720 Speaker 2: suddenly started getting rid of it in mass And the 438 00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:44,679 Speaker 2: answer is simple. Most of the universities anticipated yesterday's ruling. 439 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:47,359 Speaker 2: The writing was on the wall. They knew where this 440 00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:50,639 Speaker 2: was going, and so they knew that come June of 441 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:52,200 Speaker 2: this year, they were not going to be able to 442 00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:56,520 Speaker 2: discriminate based on race. And these radicals and universities they 443 00:26:56,600 --> 00:27:00,840 Speaker 2: want to so much that they said, oh crap. If 444 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:03,600 Speaker 2: we have SAT school scores, if we have ACT scores, 445 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:05,920 Speaker 2: and we keep doing the same thing, we keep admitting 446 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:10,080 Speaker 2: people of races that we want a preference whose scores 447 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:13,360 Speaker 2: are one, two hundred and three hundred points lower than 448 00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:16,399 Speaker 2: students of different races, well then it's going to be 449 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 2: obvious and we're gonna get sued, and we're gonna get nailed, 450 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,959 Speaker 2: and we're going to pay judgments. So the way we 451 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:24,639 Speaker 2: avoid it is we just won't collect SAT scores or 452 00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:29,560 Speaker 2: ACT scores, so there won't be that objective metric. The 453 00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:32,800 Speaker 2: entire reason the schools are getting rid of these scores 454 00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:35,920 Speaker 2: is because they want to defy the Supreme Court decision 455 00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:39,920 Speaker 2: and they want to keep discriminating even though they could 456 00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:45,800 Speaker 2: get the identically diverse student bodies without racial discrimination. These 457 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:49,880 Speaker 2: leftists believe racial discrimination is an affirmatively good thing. 458 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 1: There was a question that was asked of Joe Biden today, 459 00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:54,480 Speaker 1: and I want to get your reaction to this, He 460 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:58,359 Speaker 1: was asked by a reporter after he came out denouncing 461 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:01,879 Speaker 1: this decision by the Supreme Court and basically telling universities 462 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:05,000 Speaker 1: keep doing what you're doing. He was asked, is this 463 00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:08,919 Speaker 1: a rogue court? And I want to play his answer. 464 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:10,200 Speaker 1: But before I do that, let me tell you about 465 00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:12,040 Speaker 1: our friends over at Patriot Mobile.

You'll hear him say in the background, 502 00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:21,600 Speaker 1: this is not a normal court. 503 00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 3: Listen, and the pression of lafe Pocket said. 504 00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:26,440 Speaker 2: The Supreme Court has pally good question its own legitimacy. 505 00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 2: Is this a row of course, this is. 506 00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:35,320 Speaker 3: Not a normal senator. 507 00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:39,120 Speaker 1: You could hear him there only thing he said, this 508 00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 1: is not a normal court, and then he walked out 509 00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 1: of the room. This to me is screams another example 510 00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:49,200 Speaker 1: of the left trying to undermine the Supreme Court, making 511 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 1: way for the possibility of packing the court, telling you 512 00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:54,920 Speaker 1: that the court doesn't do what we think on the left, 513 00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:57,920 Speaker 1: on the radical left, we'll just redesign the court until 514 00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 1: it fits the way we want it to look. 515 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:04,000 Speaker 2: So Joe Biden and Chuck Schumer and the Democrats in 516 00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:07,680 Speaker 2: the Senate have for multiple years been engaged in an 517 00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:12,719 Speaker 2: extreme campaign to demonize and try to delegitimize the Supreme 518 00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:16,440 Speaker 2: Court of the United States. Their campaign is dangerous. It 519 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:20,040 Speaker 2: undermines the rule of law. The independence of the judiciary 520 00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:24,280 Speaker 2: is fundamental for protecting our civil liberties, protecting our constitutional rights, 521 00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:28,240 Speaker 2: to upholding the Constitution. And these Democrats do not give 522 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 2: a damn. These are the same people Merrick Garland, leading 523 00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:36,560 Speaker 2: Biden's doj sits by refuses to enforce federal law while 524 00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:39,560 Speaker 2: violent radicals protest in front of the homes of Supreme 525 00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 2: Court justices that he disagrees with that. Joe Biden disagrees 526 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 2: with They're threatening violence, and the Biden DOJ refuses to 527 00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:51,680 Speaker 2: enforce the law because they would tear the court down, 528 00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:54,760 Speaker 2: they would burn it to the ground. Chuck Schumer stood 529 00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:57,480 Speaker 2: on the floor on the steps of the Supreme Court 530 00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:02,640 Speaker 2: and said, you will re the whirlwind if you issue 531 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:05,880 Speaker 2: rulings we do not like. I think it is shameful 532 00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 2: what Biden is doing. And by the way, the decision 533 00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:14,920 Speaker 2: that he says is not normal is that discriminating based 534 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:18,560 Speaker 2: on race is wrong and illegal. And let me tell 535 00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 2: you a different aspect of this decision that is really important, 536 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:27,360 Speaker 2: which is many most of our universities in this country 537 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:33,000 Speaker 2: today actively and aggressively discriminate against Asian American students. The 538 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:36,680 Speaker 2: Ivy League schools, Harvard is quite shameless and naked in this. 539 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:39,560 Speaker 2: And sadly, I'm an alumnus of Harvard, and so I'm 540 00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:42,280 Speaker 2: embarrassed of the school. I went to law school. But 541 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 2: they say, look, if we admitted students based on merit, 542 00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:52,560 Speaker 2: there would be too many Asians. Asian Americans do really 543 00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:54,920 Speaker 2: well in school, they have great grades, they get great 544 00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:58,200 Speaker 2: test scores. We don't want too many Asians. So we're 545 00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:02,680 Speaker 2: going to use racial discrimination to prevent Asians from getting 546 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:07,560 Speaker 2: in at the numbers their academic results would merit. It 547 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 2: is shameful. And by the way, Harvard has a long history. 548 00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:13,239 Speaker 2: You go back to the nineteen fifties, Harvard had what 549 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:17,360 Speaker 2: was called the Jewish quotas, where they capped Jewish students 550 00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:20,040 Speaker 2: and it was the same argument, if we let students 551 00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:23,120 Speaker 2: in based on merit, based on their scores and grades, 552 00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:26,160 Speaker 2: we'd get too many Jews. This was how Harvard put it, 553 00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:28,280 Speaker 2: too many Jews. We don't want too many Jews, so 554 00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:31,640 Speaker 2: we're going to put a quota because we don't want 555 00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:35,360 Speaker 2: merit to produce outcomes we don't like. That's what these 556 00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:39,160 Speaker 2: schools are doing. And I got to say, you know, 557 00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:48,240 Speaker 2: during the Trump administration, the Democrats voted on what they 558 00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:50,840 Speaker 2: called an Asian American Hate Crime Bill, and it was 559 00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:55,400 Speaker 2: based on a fairly ludicrous conceit, which is they said 560 00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:59,240 Speaker 2: there has been an increase in violence against Asian Americans. 561 00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:02,280 Speaker 2: That's true, and they said the reason for that is 562 00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:05,680 Speaker 2: because Donald Trump said that COVID nineteen came from Wuhan, 563 00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:09,040 Speaker 2: China and called it the Wuhan virus. That's absurd. But 564 00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:12,520 Speaker 2: they're playing politics. They wanted to say, Haha, the reason 565 00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:16,799 Speaker 2: there's violence against Asian Americans is because Donald Trump accurately 566 00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:21,560 Speaker 2: described the source of COVID nineteen. Well, when the Senate 567 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:24,480 Speaker 2: voted on that, I authored an amendment, and I forced 568 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:26,799 Speaker 2: to vote on the Senate floor. And my amendment was 569 00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:29,919 Speaker 2: one paragraph. It's very simple. You can go and read 570 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:32,480 Speaker 2: the amendment. My amendment said, and I'm paraphrasing. I don't 571 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:35,120 Speaker 2: have the language in front of me, but my amendment said, 572 00:34:35,640 --> 00:34:40,839 Speaker 2: any university that discriminates against Asian Americans in admissions or 573 00:34:40,840 --> 00:34:45,000 Speaker 2: in scholarships shall be ineligible for federal funds that the 574 00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:47,759 Speaker 2: federal government is not going to pay you if you're 575 00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:50,360 Speaker 2: engaged in racial discrimination. That's all it said. It was 576 00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:54,640 Speaker 2: one paragraph. You know what. The vote was a straight 577 00:34:54,760 --> 00:35:02,160 Speaker 2: party line vote. Every single Democrat voted no. The author 578 00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:07,600 Speaker 2: of the ridiculous political bill, Maisie Herono, who is herself 579 00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:11,560 Speaker 2: Asian American, she happily voted no. And you know what, 580 00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:14,960 Speaker 2: I am convinced, to my knowledge, not a single Democrat 581 00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:17,799 Speaker 2: has ever been asked by a single reporter, why did 582 00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 2: you vote in favor of universities discriminating against Asian Americans. 583 00:35:23,560 --> 00:35:25,040 Speaker 2: And I got to tell you, Ben, in these two 584 00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:29,040 Speaker 2: Supreme Court cases, I filed an amicus brief in the 585 00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:31,920 Speaker 2: US Supreme Court. I did it jointly with Michelle Steele. 586 00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:36,120 Speaker 2: Michelle Steele is a Republican from California. She's an Asian American. 587 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:39,120 Speaker 2: The two of us together filed an amicus brief along 588 00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:42,760 Speaker 2: with eighty of our colleagues in Congress, urging the Supreme 589 00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:47,960 Speaker 2: Court to do exactly what it did yesterday. And because 590 00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:53,000 Speaker 2: the Court said you can't discriminate based on race, Joe 591 00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:55,439 Speaker 2: Biden and the Democrats are trying to tear the court 592 00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 2: to the ground and delegitimize it. 593 00:35:57,560 --> 00:36:00,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's truly incredible when you look at it from 594 00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:03,600 Speaker 1: that perspective. I want to also ask you about another issue, 595 00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:07,879 Speaker 1: and it was a religious liberty case that has really 596 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:11,640 Speaker 1: kind of been under the radar screen that people need 597 00:36:11,680 --> 00:36:14,240 Speaker 1: to know about that. Listen to verdict it's a victory there, 598 00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:17,200 Speaker 1: and talk to us a little bit about this victory 599 00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:19,200 Speaker 1: because we've been doing obviously with these other two breaking 600 00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:19,920 Speaker 1: news issues. 601 00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:21,279 Speaker 3: But this is a really big deal. 602 00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:26,279 Speaker 2: Yes. So this case is called Groth versus the Joy 603 00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:30,279 Speaker 2: and it involved an individual as an evangelical Christian who 604 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:33,440 Speaker 2: was a postal worker and he worked for the Post Office. 605 00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:39,480 Speaker 2: He began working in twenty twelve, and Groff's position generally 606 00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:44,200 Speaker 2: did not require him working on Sundays. But in twenty thirteen, 607 00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:48,200 Speaker 2: after he began working for them, the Postal Service began 608 00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:53,640 Speaker 2: delivering for Amazon on Sundays, and Groth asked for a 609 00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:57,640 Speaker 2: religious accommodation. He said, as an evangelical Christian, he wanted 610 00:36:57,680 --> 00:37:00,200 Speaker 2: to observe the Sabbath on Sunday and not work work, 611 00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:08,759 Speaker 2: and the Post Office said no and in fact punished him. 612 00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:14,560 Speaker 2: He received quote progressive discipline for failing to work on Sundays. 613 00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:16,799 Speaker 2: He eventually resigned in twenty nineteen, and he filed a 614 00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:21,400 Speaker 2: lawsuit saying that under Title seven that the Post Office 615 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:25,640 Speaker 2: could have accommodated his request to observe the Sabbath without 616 00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:30,800 Speaker 2: undue hardship on the conduct of the Post Office's business. Now, 617 00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:37,400 Speaker 2: in this instance, there was a really bad Supreme Court decision, 618 00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:42,640 Speaker 2: an older decision called trans World Airlines versus Hartisan, where 619 00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:46,359 Speaker 2: the Supreme Court has said you don't have to accommodate 620 00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:50,719 Speaker 2: someone's religious faith if there is quote more than a 621 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:53,319 Speaker 2: deminimous cost. In other words, if there's more than just 622 00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:56,799 Speaker 2: even the tiniest costs of the employers, Nope, you can 623 00:37:56,840 --> 00:38:00,120 Speaker 2: ignore the employees say screw you. Your religion doesn't matter. 624 00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:05,120 Speaker 2: You have to violate your faith. Well, the Supreme Court 625 00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:11,839 Speaker 2: unanimously ruled in favor of growth. Ruled in favor of 626 00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:16,520 Speaker 2: religious liberty. Justice Alita wrote that Title seven requires employers 627 00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:20,480 Speaker 2: who are denying religious accommodation to show that the burdens 628 00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:26,040 Speaker 2: of granting the accommodation would result in substantial increased costs. 629 00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:29,480 Speaker 2: This is a great victory for religious liberty, and the 630 00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:33,239 Speaker 2: fact that every single justice agreed, even the liberals, is 631 00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:37,600 Speaker 2: really important. This is another case where I led the 632 00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:42,000 Speaker 2: amicus brief. I led it along with Senator James Langford 633 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:45,320 Speaker 2: and along with Congressman Mike Johnson and ten other members 634 00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:49,280 Speaker 2: of Congress, urging the Court to rule exactly as they ruled. 635 00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:51,800 Speaker 2: And I got to say, if you're a person of faith, 636 00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:55,560 Speaker 2: or if you even just care about religious liberty, you 637 00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:59,200 Speaker 2: want the First Amendment interpreted to protect your religious liberty, 638 00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:02,560 Speaker 2: not to have your employer be able to just trample 639 00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:05,719 Speaker 2: on your faith willy nilly. This is a great victory 640 00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:09,440 Speaker 2: for religious liberty and it's reason for everyone to celebrate. 641 00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:13,080 Speaker 2: And I got to tell you so, my in laws, 642 00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:17,960 Speaker 2: Heidi's parents are Seventh Day Adventists. Seventh Day Adventists worship 643 00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:22,920 Speaker 2: on their Christians and Protestant Christians, but they worship on 644 00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:26,560 Speaker 2: a Jewish Sabbath, so they worship between Friday sundown and 645 00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:30,080 Speaker 2: Saturday sundown, and they take the Sabbath very, very seriously. 646 00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:33,360 Speaker 2: I have to admit I had great joy texting my 647 00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:36,920 Speaker 2: in laws and telling them about this decision, which they 648 00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:40,240 Speaker 2: were very happy with because they want their religious liberty 649 00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:44,080 Speaker 2: rights protected, whether it's worshiping on Saturday or Sunday or 650 00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:49,440 Speaker 2: whatever your faith is. The Constitution protects religious liberty and 651 00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:52,200 Speaker 2: this unanimous Supreme Court decision is a big victory for that. 652 00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:56,759 Speaker 1: Moving forward with this victory, what does this also mean 653 00:39:56,840 --> 00:40:00,759 Speaker 1: for other religious you know, liberty victory. There's been a 654 00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:03,279 Speaker 1: lot of people that feel like that people's faith has 655 00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:07,239 Speaker 1: been persecuted recently, and people are starting to realize that 656 00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:10,520 Speaker 1: you can fight back through the court system. Will this 657 00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:15,240 Speaker 1: help in other cases and other precedents and other issues 658 00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:18,840 Speaker 1: with religious liberty? And I go back to the issue 659 00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:22,960 Speaker 1: for example of adoption and fighting against abortion. There's a 660 00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:25,320 Speaker 1: lot of Christians that have been perscuted. We've seen people's 661 00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:27,560 Speaker 1: homes that have been rated, We've seen have been arrested 662 00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:30,440 Speaker 1: and harassed by the government. They say it's their right 663 00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:32,239 Speaker 1: to be able to protest, for example, but it really 664 00:40:32,239 --> 00:40:34,680 Speaker 1: does come down to your faith in your religion. There's 665 00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:38,120 Speaker 1: Christian groups that have been attacked and there's a concern 666 00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:42,000 Speaker 1: that the government's getting so heavy handed.

But is this going to have precedent moving forward? 693 00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:12,160 Speaker 2: Well, yes, and this is going to make a difference 694 00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:14,719 Speaker 2: in the workplace. So this was a decision not under 695 00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:19,000 Speaker 2: the Constitution, but under Title seven, which is part of 696 00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:22,040 Speaker 2: the landmark civil rights law of nineteen sixty four, and 697 00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:26,440 Speaker 2: it applies to workplace discrimination. And what it means is 698 00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:30,759 Speaker 2: that if you have a genuine religious belief and you 699 00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:35,480 Speaker 2: ask your employer to accommodate that religious belief, that the 700 00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:42,400 Speaker 2: employer has to do so unless it imposes an undue 701 00:42:42,520 --> 00:42:47,239 Speaker 2: hardship on the employer. And this ratchets up the standard 702 00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:50,360 Speaker 2: for what constitutes an undue hardship. It used to be 703 00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:53,839 Speaker 2: the case that your employer could basically say, well, tough, 704 00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:56,960 Speaker 2: your your faith doesn't matter, We're not going to work 705 00:42:57,000 --> 00:43:00,200 Speaker 2: to accommodate you. After this decision, there's going to be 706 00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:04,160 Speaker 2: a lot more lenient see a lot more willingness to 707 00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:09,400 Speaker 2: recognize that faith is legitimate. Look, ben, there is a 708 00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:13,880 Speaker 2: reason that religious liberty is protected literally in the first 709 00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:16,600 Speaker 2: clause of the First Amendment of the Bill of Rights. 710 00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:20,120 Speaker 2: The framers of our constitution believe that every other limit 711 00:43:20,200 --> 00:43:24,840 Speaker 2: liberty begins with the first liberty to worship God Almighty 712 00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:28,200 Speaker 2: with all of your heart, mind, and soul. That is 713 00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:33,160 Speaker 2: an incredibly valuable protection. And by the way, multiple religious 714 00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:39,719 Speaker 2: organizations engaged on this issue, including organizations representing Jews, representing Muslims, 715 00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:44,520 Speaker 2: representing Sikhs, representing Seventh day Adventists that they've engaged saying 716 00:43:44,600 --> 00:43:50,120 Speaker 2: the deminimus test has denied even minor recommodations in the workplace, 717 00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:53,680 Speaker 2: things that would have been easy for employers to give, 718 00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:56,640 Speaker 2: but they just said, well, tough, no, we're not going 719 00:43:56,719 --> 00:43:59,680 Speaker 2: to let you that this is a great victory for liberty. 720 00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:03,920 Speaker 2: And I will say there are a lot of areas 721 00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:07,000 Speaker 2: in which this Supreme Court has been really, really strong, 722 00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:12,000 Speaker 2: but religious liberty may have been the strongest. Consistently. You've 723 00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:15,799 Speaker 2: got six justices who care about religious liberty and have 724 00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:20,880 Speaker 2: been vigorous and defending it. And I'm really encouraged that 725 00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:27,360 Speaker 2: all nine agreed on this, that that's a good thing today, 726 00:44:28,640 --> 00:44:31,319 Speaker 2: yesterday was a good day for liberty, and a good 727 00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:33,680 Speaker 2: day for religious liberty in particular. 728 00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:34,799 Speaker 3: No doubt about it. 729 00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:38,399 Speaker 1: Don't forget we do Verdict Monday, Wednesday and Fridays.
