All right, let me start with, oh, 99 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 1: we have a lot of news on Ray Schard Brooks. 100 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: Now we had the prosecutor U what is Paul Howard 101 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:50,040 Speaker 1: yesterday going out Fulton County DA and makes this case. 102 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 1: And oh we have new developments we're gonna get to. 103 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 1: I can't wait to tell you about those. We'll look 104 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 1: at the legal side of this. Remember when you indict somebody. Okay, 105 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:00,719 Speaker 1: you can indict a ham Sam. We've been over that 106 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:03,279 Speaker 1: aspect of the law many many times on this show. 107 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:08,000 Speaker 1: And we've talked a lot about prosecutors, prosecutorial abuse obviously 108 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:13,600 Speaker 1: the last three years over charging. You raise expectations and 109 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:15,840 Speaker 1: then the result doesn't come out the way people were 110 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 1: told it was gonna come out. And we've seen when 111 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 1: the results can often be and that's terrible, like in 112 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 1: the in Ferguson or in Baltimore. And I'll explain all 113 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:27,719 Speaker 1: of that in a minute. I'm just gonna I'm not 114 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,240 Speaker 1: gonna spend a lot of time on John Bolton and 115 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: John Bolton's book. I've known John Bolton for many, many years. 116 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 1: There's a personal aspect of this to me that is, 117 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 1: you know, maybe I'm just so cynical now, I kind 118 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,160 Speaker 1: of it just rolls off me like water off a 119 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:53,559 Speaker 1: duck's back. I can tell you John Bolton lobbied everybody, 120 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:57,800 Speaker 1: everybody to get the job as working for the president. 121 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,839 Speaker 1: And I had once specific conversation with him. I said, John, 122 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 1: your foreign policy viewser the direct opposite of this presidents 123 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 1: he goes. I said to her, I said, these words, 124 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: are you going to serve your agenda there, or are 125 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,119 Speaker 1: you there to serve the president's agenda? And he swore 126 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 1: the president's agenda during his time there. I had numerous calls. 127 00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:24,720 Speaker 1: I think they were meant to be private, but I 128 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 1: could just tell you what I am hearing in this book. 129 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,760 Speaker 1: Whatever this book is that he's put out is not 130 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 1: what I was told by him at all in any way, shape, manner, 131 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 1: or form. And so that's troubling to me. But it 132 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 1: is what it is, you know. And then you know, 133 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:44,359 Speaker 1: it's an interesting thing that we have the ability to 134 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 1: now go back and look at people's comments and compare 135 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 1: what they said before to what they're saying now, you know. 136 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:54,400 Speaker 1: And you know, John Bolton, for example, you know, is 137 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 1: you know, he praised the President's policy on China and Russia. 138 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 1: President gets criticized for being soft on Russia. I'm still 139 00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 1: waiting to see any evidence of that. President Trump is 140 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 1: time and time again taking a strong stand against Russia's 141 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 1: malign activities. He said that then, for example Bolton, you know, 142 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 1: we got a little problem because when you go in 143 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 1: and you take these jobs where you have access to 144 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 1: highly classified information, you sign a waiver that you're not 145 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 1: going to do what John Bolton just did here, And 146 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 1: now we're learning, and these affidavits filed last night that 147 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 1: in fact, what he's releasing is classified and would be 148 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 1: damaging to national security. So that now that now we're 149 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 1: in the middle of a lawsuit about them, what is 150 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 1: he trying to hide? Nothing? And he leaked the whole 151 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:47,280 Speaker 1: books of the New York Times, and there's not one 152 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 1: thing I've read in it that impressed me at all 153 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:53,120 Speaker 1: in any way and is contradicted by his own words 154 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 1: that are numerous on every single topic we're talking about. 155 00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:00,080 Speaker 1: You know, during the National Security Advisories in Trust to 156 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 1: be classified information, during the review, the NSC identified significant 157 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:09,600 Speaker 1: quantities of classified information in Bolton's book, which they asked 158 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 1: him to remove. While he made changes, the process was 159 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:17,880 Speaker 1: still not over. Whoopsie Daisy, now they leak it. Administration 160 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 1: seeks to protect our national security blah blah blah blah. 161 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 1: Bolton's attempt to publish this book containing classified information is 162 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 1: a clear breach trust with the federal government. And that's 163 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 1: why this may not end well for John Bolton in 164 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 1: the end. And it makes you wonder. I think he 165 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 1: was embarrassed the way he was fired and he just 166 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 1: wanted to revenge. By the way, he also did the 167 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 1: same thing I forgot about. Dana Perino had said something 168 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 1: on I think it was Tucker's show last night about that, 169 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:48,200 Speaker 1: you know, as it relates to, for example, the president's leadership. 170 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 1: He praised the president's foreign policy on China, Iran and 171 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:56,959 Speaker 1: Russia and NATO, and he, you know, liking President Trump's 172 00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 1: piece through Strength policy. His exact quote was, I think 173 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:04,439 Speaker 1: President the President believes in Reagan's approach of peace through strength. 174 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 1: I think that I think that's what he's carrying out. Well, 175 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 1: that's not what's in the book at all. He highlighted 176 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 1: the president's willingness to stand up to China. Wow, that 177 00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 1: doesn't sound like what's in the book either. The pressure 178 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:20,080 Speaker 1: now is on the president. He responded in a way 179 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 1: that the Chinese confused. They've never seen an American president 180 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:28,920 Speaker 1: this tough before. But the president feels very strongly that 181 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:32,839 Speaker 1: China has taken advantage of international order for far too long, 182 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: not enough Americans have stood up to it, and he's 183 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 1: doing it. I think the President has done something no 184 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 1: previous American president has been willing to do. He called 185 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 1: China out on their behavior. He praised the President and 186 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 1: his efforts in North Korea. He credited the president's maximum 187 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 1: pressure campaign on Iran on NATO. Bolton publicly plays the 188 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 1: President and the effort to highlight the importance of you know, 189 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 1: the fair burden sharing. I mean, it's just instant after 190 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 1: instant after instant. John Bolton his own words contradicting his 191 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:13,560 Speaker 1: own words now and by the way, Democrats don't even 192 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 1: trust him. You know, when all of this came up 193 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 1: with him getting this job, you know, New York Times 194 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,560 Speaker 1: had charging with that John Bolton was not truthful in 195 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 1: answering questions about his record. They called him a liar. 196 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 1: Democratic Staff Senate Foreign Relations Committee. It's the judgment of 197 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:33,559 Speaker 1: the Democratic staff that four distinct patterns of conductors qualified 198 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 1: Bolton for the post of UN Ambassador. He's repeatedly sought 199 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 1: the removal of intelligence analysts who disagreed with him in 200 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 1: preparing speeches and testimony. He's repeatedly tried to stretch intelligence 201 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:49,080 Speaker 1: to fit his views in his relations with colleagues and 202 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 1: subordinates in and out of government. And he has exhibited 203 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:58,199 Speaker 1: repeatedly abusive behavior and intolerance of different views. He's repeatedly 204 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:03,520 Speaker 1: made misleading, disingenuous, non responsive statements to the committee. Even 205 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 1: Adam Schiff accused him of lacking credibility and politicizing intelligence. 206 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,320 Speaker 1: So there's not really you know, I look, I know 207 00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 1: it's the media. You know. Now they'll love him for 208 00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 1: a minute, but they still hate him, and the book 209 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 1: will not have any impact. So that's why I'm not 210 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,679 Speaker 1: going to spend any time on it. I mean, it's 211 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 1: you know, Adam Schiff saying you're a no patriot, and 212 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:27,120 Speaker 1: you know, I just read it and then I compare 213 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 1: it to all those past comments and I'm like, this 214 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 1: is just stupid at this point to even spend any 215 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 1: time on him. Now, we had the prosecutor come out 216 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:40,320 Speaker 1: yesterday in Fulton County, Paul Howard, and we've often talked 217 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:44,319 Speaker 1: about how you can indict a ham Sandwich. By the way, 218 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:48,200 Speaker 1: you can't. You only got one side of the issue. 219 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 1: Now tape has emerged, and I'll play it on the 220 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 1: other side of our first break where just two weeks ago, 221 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 1: different case, not the shooting in the Wendy's parking lot, 222 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 1: in the case of Raychard Brooks, where he actually said 223 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:10,600 Speaker 1: that a taser is considered as a deadly weapon under 224 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 1: Georgia law. Now, police officers under Georgia law are allowed 225 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 1: to use force if in fact that they believe that 226 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 1: person presents a threat with a deadly weapon. Whipsie daisy, 227 00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 1: you know, And they rushed to judge. We also found 228 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 1: out that one of the officers was tased in this 229 00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 1: and the other officers suffered a concussion. All right, eight 230 00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:39,439 Speaker 1: hundred ninety four one, Sean has our number. Got a 231 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,480 Speaker 1: lot coming up today. We have our legal panel on 232 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:45,560 Speaker 1: these very issues. Jeron Jeron Smith is with US, Deputy 233 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,840 Speaker 1: Assistant to the President. We'll get to that today, and 234 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:52,720 Speaker 1: we have so much more to get to. You've heard 235 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:55,720 Speaker 1: the phrase you can indict a ham sandwich. Well, you 236 00:12:55,760 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 1: can remember when the prosecutor Fulton County DA came out, 237 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 1: Paul Howard yesterday. He laid out his case. Now there's 238 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:06,599 Speaker 1: certain things that he kept out of it. And I 239 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:10,720 Speaker 1: know I had the same exact observation of him forty 240 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:15,960 Speaker 1: one minutes whatever many seconds. Everybody was professional, was courteous. 241 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,480 Speaker 1: I thought the officers were kind, they did their job, 242 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:22,839 Speaker 1: and I would also argue that raychard Brooks the same thing. 243 00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 1: Curtis courtesy, respect, until the moment where we get to okay, 244 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:29,680 Speaker 1: they were trying to cuff him, and then he's the 245 00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 1: one that initiated a conflict and resisting arrest, and struggle 246 00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 1: ensued and fight on the ground. Stop fighting, stop fighting, 247 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to tas you. I'm gonna have you 248 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 1: ta you don't touch my taser, don't. He ends up 249 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 1: being I wouldn't say victorious, but he hit the cops, 250 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 1: stood up, starts running with a taser in his hand. Now, 251 00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:53,680 Speaker 1: what we've learned today which we didn't know at least 252 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 1: according to the lawyer for one of the officers in 253 00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 1: this case, and that would be Devin Brosson before he 254 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 1: was fatally shot, that in fact, while they were fighting 255 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 1: over that taser, that in fact, mister Brooks grabbed the 256 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:15,319 Speaker 1: taser from him and actually shot this officer. Devon got 257 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 1: shot with the taser. The lawyer added. He also then 258 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 1: fell over and landed on his head and the pavement 259 00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:27,000 Speaker 1: and got a concussion. And what's what's really interesting, the 260 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:33,120 Speaker 1: lawyer again for this officer Brosson, is saying that his 261 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 1: actions were exemplary. He was the one that was saying, 262 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 1: I'm so sorry about your mom. We got to do this. 263 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 1: I know you're doing your job. Mister Brookes said, okay, 264 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 1: now he rejected outright any any violation of any law 265 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 1: leveled against his client. Well, those client quote is going 266 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 1: to say that turnstate witness of some kind. That's what 267 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 1: the prosecutor said. He said that the concussion, he didn't 268 00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:57,280 Speaker 1: even realize that Brooks had been shot when he put 269 00:14:57,320 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 1: his foot on it on the arm to make sure 270 00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 1: that he didn't have access to another weapon as he 271 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 1: lay on the ground. He said, it's not an assault. 272 00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 1: It's actually a man suffering from a concussion. Well, that 273 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 1: takes on a whole different, entirely different feel to things 274 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 1: when you know when you that's the new situation that's 275 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 1: involved here. So anyway, I'll take a quick break here. 276 00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 1: When we come back, we'll give and give you more 277 00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 1: details of all of this as we continue. It's the 278 00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 1: Sean Hannity Show, all right, twenty five till the top 279 00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 1: of the hour. Thank you, Scott Shannon eight hundred and 280 00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 1: nine four one, Sean, you want to be a part 281 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:36,840 Speaker 1: of this extravagance, you know, Davis in Pennsylvania. I'm interested 282 00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:40,240 Speaker 1: in this call. Apparently an attorney doesn't believe these police 283 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 1: can get a fair trial. How are you, sir, Why 284 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:50,000 Speaker 1: do you believe that? Hi, Sean, Well, there's jury intimidation 285 00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:54,280 Speaker 1: of iver. Remember that jury knows or shouldn't all they 286 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 1: have to vote guilty. They have to find them guilty 287 00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 1: or the whole country's going to be in a riot 288 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:02,880 Speaker 1: and their life might be in danger. Normally, an attorney 289 00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 1: would ask to judge for change of venue, to have 290 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 1: it somewhere else in the state, but anywhere in the 291 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 1: country this trial will be held. It can't be a 292 00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:16,680 Speaker 1: fair trial because no matter what the burden of proof is, 293 00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 1: whether he's guilty or not, the jury is going to 294 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,040 Speaker 1: be thinking what's going to happen to me or the 295 00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:24,280 Speaker 1: country if I vote not guilty in this case? So 296 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 1: he can't get a fair trial in my opinion. Listen, 297 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 1: there might be a move for a change in venue. 298 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:32,680 Speaker 1: None of that would shock or surprise me in any way, shape, 299 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 1: matter or form. But I'll tell you you know, I 300 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:40,560 Speaker 1: saw this coming in Ferguson, Missouri. Why, because we do 301 00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 1: something very few people in the mob and the media do. 302 00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 1: We actually call people and we get sources. And I 303 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 1: had so many police sources out of Ferguson, Missouri that 304 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 1: told me there were many African American witnesses that were 305 00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:02,560 Speaker 1: going to corroborate this story of Officer Darren Wilson. That 306 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 1: the initial the initial conflict started while Darren Wilson was 307 00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 1: in the car and Michael Brown in that case, tried 308 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:14,240 Speaker 1: to wrestle his gun away from him, and that's where 309 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:17,760 Speaker 1: a shot was fired. Nobody got hit, and then Michael 310 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:21,680 Speaker 1: Brown ran away, and then Michael Brown started charging at 311 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:25,920 Speaker 1: Officer Darren Wilson, who repeatedly said stop charging, stop charging, 312 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:29,680 Speaker 1: stop charging. Okay, they backed up his story completely. Now 313 00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:33,119 Speaker 1: we don't think about the fact that this guy's dream 314 00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 1: of being a police officer, because most guys that I 315 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:38,560 Speaker 1: know that become police officers, they've dreamed about that their 316 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 1: whole life. I have members of my family in every 317 00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:45,199 Speaker 1: aspect of law enforcement, starting with my mother and my 318 00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:48,640 Speaker 1: dad in some way, capacity or form, and family members. 319 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:50,439 Speaker 1: And the two people that were deity made it to 320 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:54,560 Speaker 1: the FBI, and let me tell you something, they're still 321 00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 1: deity compared to the stupid talk show host would just 322 00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:01,480 Speaker 1: you know, defied everybody and never listen anyone to get 323 00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 1: into either medicine or to get into police work now 324 00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:10,280 Speaker 1: knowing again you only hear from a prosecutor what he 325 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:14,480 Speaker 1: wants you to hear. And I'm not questioning the motives, 326 00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:17,880 Speaker 1: the intent or the prosecutor here, but at the end 327 00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:23,159 Speaker 1: of the day, getting an indictment before a grand jury, 328 00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:28,160 Speaker 1: there's no defense making the case for the officers. Everybody's 329 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:32,200 Speaker 1: entitled to a defense, everybody, I guess, with the exception 330 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 1: of Roger Stone, because we had a jury four person 331 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:38,199 Speaker 1: in that case that actually was prejudiced against him and 332 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 1: stated at all publicly before she was chosen to be 333 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:45,119 Speaker 1: on that jury. We usually have a questionnaire process to 334 00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:48,160 Speaker 1: wed such people out. Didn't happen there that case should 335 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:51,159 Speaker 1: have been thrown out immediately, or the horrific things that 336 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 1: happened to General Michael Flynn. They didn't think he was lying. 337 00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:57,120 Speaker 1: They didn't think he was lying. They threatened to put 338 00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:59,880 Speaker 1: his son in jail, which has to stop, I think 339 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,439 Speaker 1: as a process. And he's like, you mean, if you 340 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:04,480 Speaker 1: want me to lie, even though you did anything, I'm 341 00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 1: lying so that you won't go after my son and 342 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:09,959 Speaker 1: try to put my son in jail. Okay, a good soldier, 343 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:12,680 Speaker 1: what did he do? He impaled himself and he dove 344 00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:15,199 Speaker 1: on the sword for his family. That makes me like 345 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:18,160 Speaker 1: what General Flynn a lot more to be honest, shows 346 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:21,159 Speaker 1: what character he has. There will be justice, I am. 347 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:24,200 Speaker 1: I am convinced beyond any any shadow of a doubt. 348 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:28,440 Speaker 1: Now in this case, what are we learning here today? Well, finally, 349 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 1: the attorney for one of the officers involved, not the 350 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:36,240 Speaker 1: officer involved in the shooting, Officer Brasson's his name is 351 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:40,240 Speaker 1: Dan Samuel, has actually given us new information today and 352 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:45,360 Speaker 1: he said that in the conflict, again, everybody was professional, 353 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:49,400 Speaker 1: courteous by the book up until the moment they tried 354 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:51,640 Speaker 1: to put handcuffs on him. And you might say, why 355 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:53,879 Speaker 1: didn't they just let the guy go? He wasn't that drunk. 356 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:58,000 Speaker 1: That's not an option for police. Let's say they said, 357 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,720 Speaker 1: all right, we're gonna let you walk home, and let's 358 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:02,879 Speaker 1: say the cops leave and he goes back, here's another 359 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:05,040 Speaker 1: set of keys at home, and he opens that car, 360 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 1: drives the car and kills a kid. I guess who's 361 00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:10,640 Speaker 1: responsible at that point, the officers that didn't follow through 362 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:13,640 Speaker 1: and do their job and arrest the guy. I mean, look, 363 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 1: nobody wants a duy. The simple answers I would argue 364 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 1: uber the simple answers don't do it. But at the 365 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 1: end of the day, a d uy is probably gonna 366 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 1: end up and you take an alcohol addiction classes, community service, 367 00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:30,320 Speaker 1: and maybe have a suspended license for a while. It's 368 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:32,960 Speaker 1: it's not a jail term unless maybe it's a second 369 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:38,879 Speaker 1: third offense. So it just so he initiated the conflict. Okay, 370 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:42,560 Speaker 1: Now we learn from the attorney of the one officer 371 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 1: that was not involved in the shooting aspect of this 372 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:48,960 Speaker 1: that not only remember he was saying, stop fighting, stop fighting, 373 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:51,159 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to Tasia will tas you, I have 374 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 1: to stop get your hands off of my taser. Well, 375 00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:57,879 Speaker 1: then we saw that Richard Brookes stole the taser, and 376 00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:01,199 Speaker 1: his attorney now is saying that he got taste that 377 00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:04,600 Speaker 1: he grabbed the taser and he literally used it on 378 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:08,000 Speaker 1: that officer. And then the lawyer added then he fell over, 379 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:12,760 Speaker 1: landed on his head on the pavement and gets a concussion. Well, 380 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,000 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, now we're not in a grand 381 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:18,879 Speaker 1: jury room with only one side of the case being presented. 382 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:22,240 Speaker 1: We believe in a fair and am partial jury and 383 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:25,240 Speaker 1: evidence gets to be presented. Here, I would say that's 384 00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:27,720 Speaker 1: going to be pretty compelling evidence for a jury for 385 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:32,119 Speaker 1: that particular officer. Now you add to that, well, okay, 386 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:35,160 Speaker 1: under the law. I went through it in great specificity, 387 00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 1: in detail yesterday on the show and last night on TV, 388 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:40,480 Speaker 1: and I'll get into more detail maybe later today and 389 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:44,880 Speaker 1: on the program tonight. But under Georgia law, it's pretty 390 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:49,119 Speaker 1: pretty simple. You're allowed to use deadly force if somebody 391 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:52,639 Speaker 1: has a deadly weapon that is either a threat to 392 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 1: themselves or others. Well, it just so happens. Unrelated case 393 00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 1: two weeks ago that the e A. Paul Howard said 394 00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 1: this about tasers. Listen and charge with aggravated assault of 395 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:12,360 Speaker 1: miss Pilgrim. And this is for pointing a taser at 396 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:15,960 Speaker 1: missus Pilgrim. In as many of you all know, under 397 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:19,800 Speaker 1: Georgia law, a taser is considered as a deadly weapon 398 00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:24,199 Speaker 1: under Georgia law. As you know, under Georgia law, a 399 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:28,480 Speaker 1: taser is considered as a deadly weapon under Georgia law. 400 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:32,200 Speaker 1: Lepsie Daisy. Now that brings in the whole issue of 401 00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:36,359 Speaker 1: Professor of the Police officer Rolfe. It's not as cut 402 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:41,919 Speaker 1: and dry now, George Floyd, no brainer that it's not 403 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:47,960 Speaker 1: police procedure. Excuse me to ever put your knee on 404 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 1: the neck, the most sensitive part of the human anatomy. 405 00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:53,959 Speaker 1: I won't repeat all the arguments we've made there for 406 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 1: we watched seven minutes and fifty five seconds. It went 407 00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:00,680 Speaker 1: on for over eight minutes, nearly nine minutes. It's gonna 408 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:04,359 Speaker 1: end every time in death, you know, and watching people 409 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 1: saying stop, look at what's He's not even conscious? What 410 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:10,040 Speaker 1: are you doing? Take your take a knee up the neck? 411 00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:13,240 Speaker 1: Why don't you tell him? Help this guy? Uh? It 412 00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:16,800 Speaker 1: shocked the conscience and soul of a nation. It absolutely did. 413 00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:21,679 Speaker 1: And and I would argue rightly. So we have something 414 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 1: else that is now unfolding before our eyes. For examples CNN, 415 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:33,320 Speaker 1: Fake News, Washington Post, WWRBL, People dot Com, People Magazine, 416 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:37,760 Speaker 1: I guess quote. A blue flu now has spread across 417 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:42,680 Speaker 1: Atlanta's police ranks, with officers insisting that Wednesday evening they're 418 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 1: too sick for their night shift. In other words, they 419 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:50,600 Speaker 1: called in sick, and you go to your doctor this 420 00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:54,240 Speaker 1: terrible cough. I may need a COVID test. My back 421 00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:58,200 Speaker 1: is out. I wrenched my back. It's called it has 422 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,679 Speaker 1: a name. It's called blue flu. And This is what 423 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 1: I was getting into in great detail yesterday. And this 424 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:08,840 Speaker 1: is now a clear and present danger for this country 425 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:12,159 Speaker 1: because you know, everyone can talk about defunding the police 426 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:16,200 Speaker 1: all you want. You can talk about dismantling the police 427 00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:20,480 Speaker 1: all that you want. Now you've got some questions. Who 428 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:25,240 Speaker 1: are you going to call? What are you going to do? Now? 429 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:28,760 Speaker 1: What's happening. We're seeing a run on the country and 430 00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:32,440 Speaker 1: it's been building, and it happens a lot in terms 431 00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:35,920 Speaker 1: of people feeling the need for their own personal self defense. 432 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,000 Speaker 1: You know that this is now a serious problem. This 433 00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 1: could now especially in these big cities where all of 434 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:47,240 Speaker 1: these liberal mayors and governors that keep denying the president 435 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:50,960 Speaker 1: who keeps begging them for help. Okay, they're not restoring order. 436 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,359 Speaker 1: You know, this is the This is the absolute sin 437 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 1: and shame of Chicago and New York and Seattle and 438 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 1: washing the President's offering to help. Where the president involved themselves, 439 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:07,159 Speaker 1: it stopped. It stopped at Minneapolis, stopped in DC, stopped 440 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:10,680 Speaker 1: at Minneapolis. So and now we're at the point where 441 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:15,240 Speaker 1: police you know, I know I've talked about the one percent, 442 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 1: the deep state, the abuse of power, the corruption, but 443 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:22,600 Speaker 1: I always made a delineation. I don't talk badly about 444 00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 1: the ninety nine percent of America and the world's premier 445 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:29,200 Speaker 1: law enforcement agency. I don't do that. I've often talked 446 00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:31,680 Speaker 1: about why was I right on Ferguson because I did 447 00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 1: with the mob and the media didn't do, and I 448 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:36,439 Speaker 1: had sources telling me this is going to happen. The 449 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:40,560 Speaker 1: same thing with Freddie Gray and Baltimore, everybody, even then 450 00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:44,360 Speaker 1: President o'mama ways in on all of these high profile cases. 451 00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:49,199 Speaker 1: They raise expectations that a certain result is going to happen. 452 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:52,479 Speaker 1: They rush to judgment, and now we've got, you know, 453 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 1: these broad sweeping generalizations about cops. Well, I don't know 454 00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: those cops, and if those that we identify as such, 455 00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:03,240 Speaker 1: they need to go. I don't hear a lot of 456 00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:06,200 Speaker 1: people in the media talking about over eight hundred cops 457 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:10,159 Speaker 1: now that have been injured ricks bricks and rocks and 458 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:14,639 Speaker 1: bottles and Molotov cocktails and knives in their necks, or 459 00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:16,679 Speaker 1: the cops that have died, or the you know, we 460 00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 1: now have, you know, a whole litany of what's happening 461 00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 1: here and a never ending smear campaign against the ninety 462 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:27,720 Speaker 1: nine percent of good, decent, brave police officers. If we 463 00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:30,800 Speaker 1: don't end this, nobody will ever take this job. And 464 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:33,320 Speaker 1: if they're ever on the job, they're going to make 465 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 1: a right turn because they think this trouble. If they 466 00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:38,879 Speaker 1: make a left turn, they're not going to involve themselves 467 00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:41,360 Speaker 1: if they feel that there'll be no support. If they 468 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 1: in fact have to use some kind of force in 469 00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:47,480 Speaker 1: a dangerous situation, that's not good for the safety of 470 00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:51,000 Speaker 1: any American. And you know, you see, for example, hundreds 471 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 1: of cops in New York's with all the and there 472 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:56,159 Speaker 1: were peaceful protesters, I make a distinction, but there were 473 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:59,119 Speaker 1: a lot of rioters too, and a lot of people 474 00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:01,480 Speaker 1: that had agenda, And there was a lot of arson, 475 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:03,919 Speaker 1: and a lot of looting, and a lot of bricks 476 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:07,440 Speaker 1: throwne and a lot of rocks thrown and molotov cocktails throne. 477 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:11,360 Speaker 1: You know, we saw the cops being pelted with these objects. 478 00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:15,040 Speaker 1: We'll know one incident officer has a head injury after 479 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:19,040 Speaker 1: getting mauled with a metal fire extinguisher. Another cop in 480 00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:21,640 Speaker 1: New York stabbed in the neck. As I said, in Police, 481 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:25,119 Speaker 1: we all saw the video of a police mowed down 482 00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 1: by a guy drive in a car over eight hundred 483 00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:32,080 Speaker 1: cops to date now have been injured, others have been killed, 484 00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:35,200 Speaker 1: and others now in the case of this officer shot 485 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:38,280 Speaker 1: in the head in Vegas, he's now paralyzed from the 486 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:41,520 Speaker 1: neck down. He's not an old guy. That's the rest 487 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 1: of his life, and his life will probably be in 488 00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:47,080 Speaker 1: jeopardy for the rest of his life. And the amount 489 00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:52,520 Speaker 1: of medical care, you know, it's incalculable and it's all unnecessary. 490 00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:55,200 Speaker 1: Got a sheriff's deputy murdered in the line of duty 491 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:58,920 Speaker 1: in Mississippi over the weekend. A cop shot in Baltimore 492 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 1: in the Torso you know, if you want some real numbers, 493 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:04,600 Speaker 1: I'll give you real numbers because we've got them. You know, 494 00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:07,920 Speaker 1: eighty nine police officers in the year twenty nineteen were 495 00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 1: killed in the line of duty. That's a lot of officers. 496 00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:13,320 Speaker 1: And they have families. They want to go home and 497 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:16,439 Speaker 1: see two every day. But they put the uniform on, 498 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:19,080 Speaker 1: they go into the tough areas, they go where the 499 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:22,120 Speaker 1: crime is. They try to protect and serve their community, 500 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:24,080 Speaker 1: and they don't even get the benefit of the doubt, 501 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:26,960 Speaker 1: they don't get the presumption of innocence, and then they 502 00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:29,960 Speaker 1: get called racist by everybody. And you know, ironically, in 503 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:33,000 Speaker 1: a lot of these big cities, these police departments, a 504 00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 1: majority minority, I think sixty percent, for example in Los Angeles, 505 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:41,040 Speaker 1: happened to be Hispanic Americans. And they're out there every 506 00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:44,280 Speaker 1: day doing a very tough job. You know, you want 507 00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:47,200 Speaker 1: you know other you know instances, We can give it 508 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:51,240 Speaker 1: to you because in twenty eighteen, police in this country 509 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 1: arrested nearly twelve thousand people for murder and for manslaughter, 510 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:59,160 Speaker 1: and twenty five thousand people for rape, and nearly a 511 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:03,479 Speaker 1: million five for assault. And the overwhelming majority of law 512 00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 1: enforcement community, you know, they perform their duties. They protect 513 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,000 Speaker 1: and they serve, and they do it with integrity and 514 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:13,680 Speaker 1: honor and decency. And this is the things that they get. 515 00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 1: The cops that were climbing up those tower stairs along 516 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 1: with their fireman brethren and their EMT brethren, while everybody 517 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:26,240 Speaker 1: else is racing down the stairs to get the hell 518 00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:30,200 Speaker 1: out of what was eventually, you know, the mass murder 519 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:33,160 Speaker 1: of nearly three thousand of our fellow citizens. They were 520 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:36,440 Speaker 1: going up bravely knowing they may not come down that 521 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:41,120 Speaker 1: day to protect other people. How do we forget the 522 00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:44,880 Speaker 1: two officers, Remember the shooting and the softball field with 523 00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:47,960 Speaker 1: Steve Scalies got shot. You know you got a guy 524 00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:52,200 Speaker 1: with a rifle hidden and the two officers. Is the 525 00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:56,320 Speaker 1: shooting breaks out Capital police, Well, they walked in the 526 00:29:56,320 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 1: middle of an open baseball field. You wanted to fine 527 00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:04,160 Speaker 1: heroism because let me tell you, as somebody, well, I 528 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:06,720 Speaker 1: have a lot of firearms. I've been trained since I'm ten. 529 00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:13,920 Speaker 1: A rifle with some cover versus two police officers with 530 00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:18,520 Speaker 1: a pistol, it's no contest. The guy with the rifle, 531 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 1: if he has any level of skill, will win ninety 532 00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:26,800 Speaker 1: nine point nine percent of the time. But they did 533 00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:31,440 Speaker 1: it anyway. They took the risk anyway for other people. 534 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:34,840 Speaker 1: But they're all racist, right, They deserve to get bricks 535 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:40,360 Speaker 1: thrown at him, bottles, rocks, molotov cocktails. No, you know 536 00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 1: who is gonna ever want to do this job? Now? 537 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:46,880 Speaker 1: You have talks about sickouts, the blue flu. You know 538 00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:50,719 Speaker 1: I can't support it because if it happens, I know 539 00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:53,960 Speaker 1: it's gonna end badly. But there's another part of me 540 00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:58,360 Speaker 1: that says, you know what, these people deserve better, We 541 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 1: owe it to them because they do it for us. 542 00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 1: It's unbelievable. These are the eleven charges against Officer Roth. 543 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:13,840 Speaker 1: The first charge is felony murder. This is a death 544 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:18,080 Speaker 1: that is as a result of an underlying felony, and 545 00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 1: in this case, the underlying felony is aggravating salt with 546 00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:27,360 Speaker 1: a deadly weapon. And the possible sentences for a felony 547 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:31,920 Speaker 1: murder conviction would be life life with our parole or 548 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 1: the death penalty. We are asking Officer Roth and Officer A. 549 00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:45,160 Speaker 1: Presidan to surrender themselves by six pm on tomorrow. We 550 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:52,680 Speaker 1: are because Officer Brosdon is now becoming a cooperating witness 551 00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 1: father state. We are asking the court to grant a 552 00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:03,720 Speaker 1: bond of fifty thousand dollars and to allow mister officer 553 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:09,040 Speaker 1: Brosnan to sign that bond, as I indicated that he 554 00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:13,200 Speaker 1: would become one of the first police officers to actually 555 00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:18,120 Speaker 1: indicate that he is willing to testify against someone in 556 00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:21,880 Speaker 1: his own department. All right, that was the announcement yesterday 557 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:24,600 Speaker 1: about the charges that were brought up in the case 558 00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:28,239 Speaker 1: in Atlanta, Raychard Brooks. I did not know this, nor 559 00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:31,640 Speaker 1: did he mention it yesterday when he was announcing the 560 00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:37,520 Speaker 1: charges that were made. According to Officer Bronson's lawyer, who 561 00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:40,960 Speaker 1: apparently is turning state witness. According to the prosecutor, his 562 00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:45,120 Speaker 1: lawyer said that Devin ends up taking out his taser 563 00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:48,840 Speaker 1: and yelling at him stop fighting, stop fighting. Mister Brooks 564 00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:54,600 Speaker 1: grabbed the taser from him and shot this one other officer, 565 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:57,920 Speaker 1: not the one involved in the shooting. Aspect of this incident, 566 00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:01,480 Speaker 1: the lawyer added, he then falls over, lands on his 567 00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:06,200 Speaker 1: head of the payment gets a concussion. And by the way, 568 00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:09,680 Speaker 1: the lawyer then said, he called Bronson's actions exemplary, claimed 569 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:13,720 Speaker 1: prosecutors didn't bother looking at the officers. Medical records also 570 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:17,520 Speaker 1: rejected the aggravated assault charge levied against his client, who 571 00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:21,400 Speaker 1: prosecutors said stood on Brooks's shoulder after he was shot, 572 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:25,640 Speaker 1: and Samuel said the concussion Bronson didn't even realize that 573 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:28,200 Speaker 1: Brooks had been shot when he put his foot on 574 00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:30,360 Speaker 1: the arm to make sure that he didn't have access 575 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:32,160 Speaker 1: to a weapon as he lay on the ground. He said, 576 00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:34,880 Speaker 1: it's not an assault, it's a man suffering from a concussion. 577 00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:38,200 Speaker 1: You know, it's interesting we always say these words you 578 00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:42,040 Speaker 1: can indict a ham sandwich, which is true in a 579 00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:43,800 Speaker 1: lot of ways. There's a lot of truth to that 580 00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:47,240 Speaker 1: statement because remember when a case is presented before a 581 00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:51,360 Speaker 1: grand jury, they're in no, you don't get the other side. 582 00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:59,360 Speaker 1: The bar to indet is extraordinarily blow versus what will 583 00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:02,520 Speaker 1: be very high in a courtroom where you have real, 584 00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:07,000 Speaker 1: hopefully hopefully impartial jurors, fair and impartial jurors, the opposite 585 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:11,000 Speaker 1: of Oh, let's say the trial of Roger Stone, which 586 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:14,360 Speaker 1: we had a jury four person that had written previously 587 00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:17,760 Speaker 1: about how much they hate Roger Stone, Trump, supporters Trump 588 00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:20,879 Speaker 1: and everybody else in between. How that case didn't get 589 00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:24,440 Speaker 1: thrown out is beyond any comprehension I have. It is 590 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:29,160 Speaker 1: a travesty of justice. So as we get down deeper 591 00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:32,120 Speaker 1: into all of this, now you know why cops are 592 00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:35,080 Speaker 1: now saying, you know what, enough is enough? And you know, 593 00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:38,360 Speaker 1: you get all these lengthy liberal comments about, well, what 594 00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:41,960 Speaker 1: will life look like without police? What will life look 595 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:45,359 Speaker 1: like when we defund the police? Okay, you don't need 596 00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:49,640 Speaker 1: to go to Harvard and get a degree in psychology 597 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:53,160 Speaker 1: or criminal justice to figure out it's not gonna end 598 00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:57,240 Speaker 1: very well at all. That's your answer. The danger, too, 599 00:34:57,440 --> 00:35:01,000 Speaker 1: is that you know what we're seeing play around the 600 00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:05,040 Speaker 1: country that the eight hundred officers now injured with rocks 601 00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:09,760 Speaker 1: and bricks and bottles and molotov cocktails. Some have died. 602 00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:12,680 Speaker 1: We have the one officer paralyzed from the waist down. 603 00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:15,440 Speaker 1: Now I think actually from the neck down. You know, 604 00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:18,320 Speaker 1: look at this New York City. You have one officer 605 00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:21,359 Speaker 1: stabbed in the neck as a result of this. Eight 606 00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:24,759 Speaker 1: hundred officers total and now have been hurt. You have 607 00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:28,000 Speaker 1: another officer with a head injury after getting mauled with 608 00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:32,360 Speaker 1: a metal fire extinguisher. New York City. Hundreds of police 609 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:35,759 Speaker 1: officers injured after being pelted with bricks and other objects. 610 00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:40,680 Speaker 1: All told, this is happening around the country. So it is. 611 00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:43,560 Speaker 1: And by the way, if you want numbers, statistics, the 612 00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:47,040 Speaker 1: year twenty nineteen eighty nine officers killed in the line 613 00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:50,040 Speaker 1: of duty. Now the ninety nine percent. And I said 614 00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:53,320 Speaker 1: this even when I was exposing a lot of abuse 615 00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:55,920 Speaker 1: of power and corruption on the deep state with my 616 00:35:56,120 --> 00:36:00,080 Speaker 1: ensemble cast, which was amazing, I always said, not the 617 00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:03,400 Speaker 1: ninety nine not the ninety nine percent, the one percent, 618 00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:06,680 Speaker 1: the one. I always make the distinction. Nor on this 619 00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:10,279 Speaker 1: show do we rush to judgment. We saw what happened Obama, 620 00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:13,520 Speaker 1: Rock and Joe. They rushed to judgment on Ferguson. They 621 00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:18,840 Speaker 1: rushed to judgment in Baltimore. So many rush to judgment UVA, 622 00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:21,600 Speaker 1: so many rush to judgment, Duke lacross a lot of 623 00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:24,720 Speaker 1: Richard Jewel. I've been right on all of those cases. 624 00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:27,480 Speaker 1: When everyone else is wrong, they haven't heard from the defense. 625 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:30,920 Speaker 1: The defense now is going to make their case known. 626 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:34,360 Speaker 1: And now the big question is, Okay, even if you 627 00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:38,319 Speaker 1: don't defund the police, will the police even bother, you know, 628 00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:41,480 Speaker 1: staying on that job or seek other careers that probably 629 00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:44,160 Speaker 1: will even pay more and put them at far less 630 00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:46,000 Speaker 1: risk in their lives. All Right, we have a lot 631 00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:49,440 Speaker 1: to sort out here. Leo Terrell, American civil liberties attorney, 632 00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:53,839 Speaker 1: talk show host at the Leo Terrell.

What it was it 639 00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:21,000 Speaker 1: was turning into just us sorry, you blew one, you know, 640 00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:24,040 Speaker 1: one point one er. Whatever it is above the legal limit. 641 00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:26,960 Speaker 1: They don't have the option to not arrest you at 642 00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:29,319 Speaker 1: that point, they have to arrest you. Okay, please put 643 00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:31,720 Speaker 1: your hands behind your back, and all hell breaks loose. 644 00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:34,799 Speaker 1: The cops I saw got hit. We see what We 645 00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:37,200 Speaker 1: now know that one officer, according to his attorney, has 646 00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:42,040 Speaker 1: a concussion. The taser was stolen. The other officer is 647 00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:45,840 Speaker 1: in pursuit. As the guy has the weapon, he turns 648 00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:49,120 Speaker 1: around seemingly to fire that weapon at the officer. It 649 00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:52,560 Speaker 1: ends with two shots in the back. Thoughts, I'll take Sean, 650 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:56,440 Speaker 1: you laid it out perfectly.

That's even worse. You know, 655 00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:12,440 Speaker 1: they glade out their whole case yesterday. If you're a 656 00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:15,480 Speaker 1: defense lawyer, you know where they're going. You know exactly 657 00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 1: where they're going, and they put the instances on what 658 00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:20,239 Speaker 1: happened after the shooting. But the fact that one of 659 00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:23,000 Speaker 1: these officers had a concussion, that's the type of evidence 660 00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:26,520 Speaker 1: that that reaps an affirmative defense and the basis for 661 00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:30,440 Speaker 1: his conduct. Look, that district attorney should recuse himself if 662 00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:32,880 Speaker 1: he wants to be fair. Those officers have a legitimate 663 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:35,680 Speaker 1: right for a change of venue. Again, I want everyone 664 00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:38,400 Speaker 1: to understand this is not the George Floyd case, and 665 00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:42,280 Speaker 1: there's definitely over charging in this case. I will submit 666 00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:44,400 Speaker 1: to you that a lot of these charges are going 667 00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:46,760 Speaker 1: to be dropped if this case ever goes to trial, 668 00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:50,600 Speaker 1: and any good attorney, defense attorneys, civil rights attorney is 669 00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:53,439 Speaker 1: going to tell you that this is a tough, if 670 00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:56,880 Speaker 1: not impossible case to get a conviction. Why because the 671 00:38:57,040 --> 00:38:59,560 Speaker 1: what's the state of that mind of that officer who 672 00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:03,480 Speaker 1: shot have to be evaluated by a reasonably objective standard. 673 00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:06,960 Speaker 1: And he's going to have great police experts from throughout 674 00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:09,520 Speaker 1: this country who's going to test five that his contact 675 00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:12,040 Speaker 1: with reasonable And final point, you're dead on about the 676 00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:15,000 Speaker 1: state of affairs of police officers in this country. I 677 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:17,480 Speaker 1: just left the union from the La County Sheriff Department, 678 00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:21,360 Speaker 1: and these guys are being blamed like throughout this country 679 00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:25,600 Speaker 1: for the mistakes of a few bad officers. These individuals 680 00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,560 Speaker 1: want these police officers are the people who protect us 681 00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:31,120 Speaker 1: at two and three o'clock in the morning. You know, 682 00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:33,759 Speaker 1: as you look at this, all right, so we have 683 00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:38,000 Speaker 1: eleven charges in all, Greg Jarrett, as it relates to 684 00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:43,480 Speaker 1: this case against the officer that fired the weapon. Eleven charges, 685 00:39:43,719 --> 00:39:47,240 Speaker 1: first one being a death penalty potential charge of murder, 686 00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:51,560 Speaker 1: then all the other charges. Now my question is did 687 00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:53,920 Speaker 1: they just load up the charges. If we can't get A, 688 00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:56,640 Speaker 1: will take B. If we can't get B, will take CE. 689 00:39:56,760 --> 00:39:59,000 Speaker 1: If we can't get C, will take D. No. I 690 00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:05,000 Speaker 1: agree with Leo, this is completely overcharged. And the defense 691 00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:08,400 Speaker 1: it's a classic case of self defense. The standard jury 692 00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:12,600 Speaker 1: instruction in Georgia says you are allowed to use deadly 693 00:40:12,640 --> 00:40:16,400 Speaker 1: force if you are facing deadly force. So the question 694 00:40:16,560 --> 00:40:20,080 Speaker 1: is is a taser a deadly weapon? And according to 695 00:40:20,160 --> 00:40:24,080 Speaker 1: this District Attorney Paul Howard, two weeks ago, in an 696 00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:27,520 Speaker 1: unrelated case, he stood in front of television cameras and said, 697 00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:31,719 Speaker 1: under Georgia law, a taser is a deadly weapon. And 698 00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:34,840 Speaker 1: there is a Supreme Court decision in Georgia that supports 699 00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:38,840 Speaker 1: that a taser can cause serious bodily injury or death. 700 00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:41,880 Speaker 1: And so this is a da well I think is 701 00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:47,879 Speaker 1: acceding to an angry mob. He's overcharged the case, and 702 00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:51,879 Speaker 1: he's undermined his own case with his own words by 703 00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:55,760 Speaker 1: saying that a taser is a deadly weapon under Georgia 704 00:40:55,840 --> 00:41:00,880 Speaker 1: law and charge with Egmont assault of miss Pilgrim. And 705 00:41:01,080 --> 00:41:04,960 Speaker 1: this is far pointing a taser at missus Pilgrim. In 706 00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:08,560 Speaker 1: as many of you all know, under Georgia law, a 707 00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:13,240 Speaker 1: taser is considered as a deadly weapon under Georgia law. Wow, 708 00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:17,160 Speaker 1: so two weeks ago, Georgia law says you're allowed to 709 00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:21,799 Speaker 1: use deadly force if you're facing deadly force. Correct, yes, yes, 710 00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:26,480 Speaker 1: And he himself said a taser is a deadly force weapon, 711 00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:30,280 Speaker 1: David Shone. Yeah, look you said it. Rush to judgment. 712 00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:33,880 Speaker 1: That rush to judgment badly serves everybody here, any defense 713 00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:36,360 Speaker 1: lawyer worth his or her assault. Now we'll use that 714 00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:39,200 Speaker 1: to attack the integrity of the case. They missed it, 715 00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:42,239 Speaker 1: as to Brasman, they missed the most relevant facts. As 716 00:41:42,239 --> 00:41:45,200 Speaker 1: to Brosman, and Ralph's lawyer will use that too. It 717 00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:47,480 Speaker 1: looks like, on the face of it a self defense case. 718 00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:49,600 Speaker 1: Those are the cases you have to take particular care 719 00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:52,600 Speaker 1: with and presenting them the grand jury. The forensics here 720 00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:55,920 Speaker 1: may be subject to a different point of view. You know, 721 00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:59,080 Speaker 1: mister Ralph's lawyer already has said it's wrong. He was 722 00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:01,960 Speaker 1: not running it. Brooks was not running away from him. 723 00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:04,920 Speaker 1: I assume he intends to get an forensic expert who's 724 00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:06,760 Speaker 1: going to say, while the two shots are in the back, 725 00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:09,919 Speaker 1: they were at an trajectory is such that indicating mister 726 00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:13,279 Speaker 1: Brooks was turning. So it's gonna it's gonna the case 727 00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:15,880 Speaker 1: will turn on that. It's a classic self defense case. However, 728 00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:18,480 Speaker 1: even if great's one hundred percent right. In fact, there's 729 00:42:18,480 --> 00:42:20,680 Speaker 1: a case in the eleventh the US Court of Appeals 730 00:42:20,960 --> 00:42:23,800 Speaker 1: right now in which a guy grabbed the officer's taser. 731 00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:26,680 Speaker 1: I was then shot and the officers entitled to qualified 732 00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:29,400 Speaker 1: immunity according to what the lower court said from that. 733 00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:32,080 Speaker 1: But but you know, we have there are a lot 734 00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:34,759 Speaker 1: of facts here that really have to be sorted out. 735 00:42:35,040 --> 00:42:37,160 Speaker 1: As to the police union and the walk out of 736 00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:40,480 Speaker 1: the job, it's understandable, We've said it before. The cops 737 00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:44,239 Speaker 1: are our heroes period. However, many of these unions have 738 00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:47,600 Speaker 1: abused their power. We have that, I've said before. The 739 00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:51,760 Speaker 1: Jermaine McBean case in Broward County, Florida, the evidence was clear, 740 00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:54,800 Speaker 1: but the prosecution took their time. This was one hundred 741 00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:57,200 Speaker 1: and sixty eighth killing by police officers in the thirty 742 00:42:57,239 --> 00:42:59,799 Speaker 1: year period. They took two years to have the grand 743 00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:03,200 Speaker 1: review it. They finally indicted an officer, and then the 744 00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:06,439 Speaker 1: police union intervened and a crooked judge threw it out 745 00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:09,560 Speaker 1: on standard ground. The public won't stand for that. The 746 00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:12,719 Speaker 1: evidence was clear in that case. So the unions have 747 00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:16,319 Speaker 1: overstepped their bounds to some degree. But on the other hand, 748 00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:20,080 Speaker 1: the solidarity is understandable. We're gonna have to see how 749 00:43:20,120 --> 00:43:22,200 Speaker 1: this plays out with the self defense. The shooting in 750 00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:24,680 Speaker 1: the back looks bad, but the rushed judgment was a 751 00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:28,319 Speaker 1: political decision. That is always a mistake, you know what. 752 00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:31,160 Speaker 1: I just I just looked at this and I'm dying. 753 00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:34,960 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, so much that was not said yesterday. 754 00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:38,239 Speaker 1: It's pretty amazing, and in this case, a taser is 755 00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:43,000 Speaker 1: considered a deadly weapon under Georgia law. Now, the prosecutor, 756 00:43:43,080 --> 00:43:46,400 Speaker 1: he laid out his case yesterday before everybody as it 757 00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:50,560 Speaker 1: relates to what happened in Atlanta. He didn't mention that yesterday. Leo, 758 00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:52,360 Speaker 1: maybe I missed it, but I was watching it I 759 00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:54,839 Speaker 1: don't think I missed it. No, I saw the whole 760 00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:57,919 Speaker 1: press conference, and he didn't mention that at all. Listen, 761 00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:01,520 Speaker 1: let me tell you right now, that press conference was 762 00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:05,640 Speaker 1: a side show where he went well beyond what a 763 00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:08,759 Speaker 1: prosecutor does when he presents charges for the public consumption 764 00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:11,600 Speaker 1: by allowing these civil attorneys to come on board and 765 00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:14,239 Speaker 1: basically plead their case. But I want to make sure 766 00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:16,520 Speaker 1: this is clear, coming from me as a civil rights attorney, 767 00:44:16,520 --> 00:44:20,200 Speaker 1: as an African American. Those officers did not take action 768 00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:23,640 Speaker 1: because Brooks is black and they're white. There is no 769 00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:27,279 Speaker 1: racial issue here, if anyone has any question about that. 770 00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:31,440 Speaker 1: Watched the first forty minutes of the tape, okay, because 771 00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:35,040 Speaker 1: there was a good, very good relationship among the three 772 00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:38,520 Speaker 1: of them, and then they got ugly when Brooks assaulted 773 00:44:38,680 --> 00:44:41,879 Speaker 1: the officers and became a fleeing spellon Black Day News 774 00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:43,920 Speaker 1: for you, and what Greg said is true. That tape, 775 00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:46,640 Speaker 1: which I hope you played the night on Hannity regarding 776 00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:49,759 Speaker 1: the taser's a deadly weapon, came over just game is over. 777 00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:52,839 Speaker 1: I look, I don't like to say game over, you know. Greg. 778 00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:55,560 Speaker 1: One of the reasons forget that we were all of 779 00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:57,919 Speaker 1: us here right, as it relates to the deep state, 780 00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:02,080 Speaker 1: by some views, premeditated fraud. Dacier's you know, the amazing 781 00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:04,160 Speaker 1: thing is I've also been right. I was right on 782 00:45:04,200 --> 00:45:08,440 Speaker 1: Ferguson because I had my sources that told me that 783 00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:12,280 Speaker 1: these witnesses were there. I was right about Richard Jewel, 784 00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:16,319 Speaker 1: my gut instinct. I was right about Baltimore, Maryland. I said, 785 00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:19,759 Speaker 1: nobody's going to get convicted there, and everybody's expectations were, 786 00:45:19,800 --> 00:45:22,759 Speaker 1: you know, through the roof, we know what happened there. 787 00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:24,839 Speaker 1: And then you have you know, Brock and Joe. They 788 00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:27,520 Speaker 1: always would rush to judgment anyway, and it ends up terribly. 789 00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:30,800 Speaker 1: You know what about those that are rushing to judgment 790 00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:35,480 Speaker 1: again here, Well, it's a rush to misjudgment under the law. 791 00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:40,040 Speaker 1: I mean, the law is basically clear and most jurisdictions, 792 00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:44,040 Speaker 1: and certainly in Georgia, that if a police officer reasonably 793 00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:50,880 Speaker 1: believes he is facing imminent death or serious bodily injury, 794 00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:55,560 Speaker 1: he's allowed to use lethal force. I mean, that's standard. 795 00:45:55,960 --> 00:46:00,680 Speaker 1: It obviously turns the question of did he reasonably believe? 796 00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:03,080 Speaker 1: All right, I'm gonna pick it up on that point though. 797 00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:05,000 Speaker 1: On the other side of this break up. We're going 798 00:46:05,040 --> 00:46:07,720 Speaker 1: to hold our guests over Leo Tterrell David shown, Greg Jarrett. 799 00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:09,600 Speaker 1: Eight hundred and nine four one sewn. You want to 800 00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:11,920 Speaker 1: be a part of the program. All right, twenty five 801 00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:13,920 Speaker 1: down till the top of the hour. Eight hundred and 802 00:46:13,960 --> 00:46:15,440 Speaker 1: nine four one sewn. You want to be a part 803 00:46:15,440 --> 00:46:16,960 Speaker 1: of the program. Let's go back to what we were 804 00:46:16,960 --> 00:46:19,960 Speaker 1: discussing in the last half hour with Leo Terrell David 805 00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:24,560 Speaker 1: shown Greg Jarrett. And so we heard from the prosecutor 806 00:46:24,640 --> 00:46:29,520 Speaker 1: Fulton County yesterday about the charges that were now laid 807 00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:31,759 Speaker 1: out for the officer involved in the shooting at the 808 00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:35,640 Speaker 1: Wendy's anyway two weeks ago. This is what we've been 809 00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:40,520 Speaker 1: talking about. What he said. Now, remember in Georgia, you're 810 00:46:40,560 --> 00:46:43,920 Speaker 1: allowed as a police officer to use deadly force if 811 00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:47,800 Speaker 1: you believe a deadly force weapon could be used against 812 00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:50,920 Speaker 1: you or someone else to hurt somebody. And just so 813 00:46:51,120 --> 00:46:55,800 Speaker 1: happens unrelated matter, the DA actually said the following about 814 00:46:55,800 --> 00:47:01,360 Speaker 1: a teaser and charge with aggrevating assault of miss Pilgrim. 815 00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:05,440 Speaker 1: And this is for pointing a taser at missus Pilgrim 816 00:47:05,560 --> 00:47:08,680 Speaker 1: in as many of you all know, under Georgia law, 817 00:47:09,120 --> 00:47:13,080 Speaker 1: a taser is considered as a deadly weapon under Georgia law. 818 00:47:13,560 --> 00:47:20,560 Speaker 1: A taser is considered a deadly weapon under Georgio law. Okay, uh, 819 00:47:20,920 --> 00:47:24,920 Speaker 1: David Shone Uh? Okay? Is it now based on the 820 00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:27,040 Speaker 1: tape that we have? Now we're in a legal realm. 821 00:47:27,080 --> 00:47:30,000 Speaker 1: It's not just the prosecutor laying out charges that they're 822 00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:33,120 Speaker 1: going to have. There are people like yourself and like 823 00:47:33,360 --> 00:47:37,239 Speaker 1: Leo and like Greg that are great defense attorneys. They 824 00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:39,520 Speaker 1: have yet to make their case. We don't know where 825 00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:41,600 Speaker 1: they're going. We didn't know until today. And I saw 826 00:47:41,640 --> 00:47:43,400 Speaker 1: it in the New York Post that one of the 827 00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:46,799 Speaker 1: officers ended up getting a concussion and had apparently been 828 00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:51,600 Speaker 1: tased and the process of struggling with with this this 829 00:47:51,680 --> 00:47:55,799 Speaker 1: man Rashid Brooks. So the question is what does what 830 00:47:55,840 --> 00:47:58,279 Speaker 1: an impact does that have? Because I got to imagine 831 00:47:58,640 --> 00:48:01,600 Speaker 1: that those comments are gonna be brought up in that courtroom. 832 00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:04,360 Speaker 1: Should we get to that point, absolutely, I mean you 833 00:48:04,360 --> 00:48:06,960 Speaker 1: should lead with that taint. Probably. This is what we 834 00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:10,120 Speaker 1: were discussing yesterday. Was talked about Tennessee versus Gardner, and 835 00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:14,040 Speaker 1: I mentioned yesterday that the question is the law is 836 00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:16,799 Speaker 1: a police officer has the right to use deadly force 837 00:48:16,920 --> 00:48:20,520 Speaker 1: to shoot and a fleeing felon or a fleeing person 838 00:48:20,719 --> 00:48:24,000 Speaker 1: if he has reason to believe that person is armed 839 00:48:24,320 --> 00:48:27,160 Speaker 1: and poses an imminent threat of danger to either the 840 00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:30,759 Speaker 1: police officer or to any other third party. That's why, 841 00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:33,640 Speaker 1: as we said yesterday, it's relevant that a taser is 842 00:48:33,680 --> 00:48:37,239 Speaker 1: considered a deadly weapon in this case. It's even more 843 00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:39,719 Speaker 1: than that. Nobody asked to guess the mister Brooks had 844 00:48:39,719 --> 00:48:43,840 Speaker 1: already shot the taser, possibly twice, we're told. So that's 845 00:48:43,880 --> 00:48:46,320 Speaker 1: the way, you know, the defense of this case goes. 846 00:48:46,440 --> 00:48:47,839 Speaker 1: I have to tell you, you know, by the way, 847 00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:51,800 Speaker 1: the Georgia Bureau's investigation is as livid as our guests 848 00:48:51,840 --> 00:48:55,280 Speaker 1: are that District Attorney Howard did this. They were supposed 849 00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:58,839 Speaker 1: to be conducting an investigation, in this case, an independent investigation, 850 00:48:59,000 --> 00:49:01,640 Speaker 1: and they had no idea that Attorney Howard was going 851 00:49:01,680 --> 00:49:04,759 Speaker 1: to have this press conference or return these charges. So 852 00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:09,120 Speaker 1: they're also livid about this rush to judgment. It's against 853 00:49:09,200 --> 00:49:14,280 Speaker 1: everybody's best interests. You know, again, I see this. Let's 854 00:49:14,320 --> 00:49:17,560 Speaker 1: say they can't get the murder, you know, death penalty 855 00:49:17,640 --> 00:49:21,239 Speaker 1: charge that they're seeking here, Greg Jared. Let's assume that 856 00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:23,440 Speaker 1: and then they go to the other charges, the other 857 00:49:23,520 --> 00:49:26,440 Speaker 1: ten charges in this case, based on what we know, 858 00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:29,520 Speaker 1: what we see, the evidence we have at this moment, 859 00:49:29,520 --> 00:49:32,680 Speaker 1: and that's always changing. You know, we learned two big 860 00:49:32,680 --> 00:49:36,560 Speaker 1: new things today. How do you see this playing out? 861 00:49:37,320 --> 00:49:40,439 Speaker 1: David Shoon made the point that they might even try 862 00:49:40,520 --> 00:49:42,880 Speaker 1: now for a change of venue, which would be interesting. 863 00:49:43,680 --> 00:49:46,960 Speaker 1: Do you think that's valid? And based on what we 864 00:49:47,080 --> 00:49:49,640 Speaker 1: know now? Where do you see this case, especially when 865 00:49:49,680 --> 00:49:52,239 Speaker 1: you look at it against the charges that have been 866 00:49:52,239 --> 00:49:55,680 Speaker 1: brought against the two officers, and the one in particular, 867 00:49:56,040 --> 00:49:59,520 Speaker 1: self defense applies to all of the charges. So you 868 00:49:59,560 --> 00:50:02,560 Speaker 1: know that defense, which appears to be a valid defense 869 00:50:02,680 --> 00:50:06,800 Speaker 1: under the law, you know, can result in an acquittal 870 00:50:06,840 --> 00:50:11,120 Speaker 1: on all of those charges. I agree that the Georgia 871 00:50:11,120 --> 00:50:14,120 Speaker 1: Bureau of Investigation may come back with a different result. 872 00:50:14,360 --> 00:50:17,279 Speaker 1: And I think this is a da who, since he's 873 00:50:17,320 --> 00:50:20,880 Speaker 1: undermined his own case, has to now disqualify himself. On 874 00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:26,440 Speaker 1: top of that, because of his outrageous comments of condemnation 875 00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:30,880 Speaker 1: against the accused, which are presumed innocent, this demands a 876 00:50:31,040 --> 00:50:34,799 Speaker 1: change of venue. He has ruined his own case, by 877 00:50:34,840 --> 00:50:37,000 Speaker 1: his own words two weeks ago and by his words 878 00:50:37,120 --> 00:50:40,640 Speaker 1: yesterday at the news conference and you're tag Leo based 879 00:50:40,640 --> 00:50:43,080 Speaker 1: on all of this new information. Well, I'll just say 880 00:50:43,120 --> 00:50:45,160 Speaker 1: I mean at the end of my opening statement was 881 00:50:45,360 --> 00:50:47,759 Speaker 1: change of venue and this guy should be recused. It 882 00:50:47,880 --> 00:50:51,440 Speaker 1: just proves once that part because people got caught up 883 00:50:51,480 --> 00:50:54,759 Speaker 1: in the George Floyd case. And all this tells you 884 00:50:54,800 --> 00:50:59,399 Speaker 1: what bothers me, Sean, is that it's all politically motivated. 885 00:50:59,600 --> 00:51:02,839 Speaker 1: It's most like the mayor of Lamanta and the DA 886 00:51:02,920 --> 00:51:04,759 Speaker 1: got together and say we got to do this, and 887 00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:09,120 Speaker 1: there is no legitimate legal basis to file these over charges, 888 00:51:09,360 --> 00:51:12,879 Speaker 1: but they did it anyway for the wrong reasons, to 889 00:51:12,920 --> 00:51:17,040 Speaker 1: satisfy a vigilane group. We are a nation of laws. 890 00:51:17,320 --> 00:51:22,080 Speaker 1: Those officers deserved due process, and what happened yesterday was 891 00:51:22,120 --> 00:51:26,120 Speaker 1: a denial due process and the overcharging of two officers 892 00:51:26,160 --> 00:51:29,279 Speaker 1: who were only trying to do their job. It is 893 00:51:29,320 --> 00:51:32,759 Speaker 1: a disaster and an embarrassment to the legal system. All right, 894 00:51:32,840 --> 00:51:37,200 Speaker 1: amazing analysis, all three of you, Leo, Terrell, David, shown Greg, Jared, 895 00:51:37,239 --> 00:51:40,080 Speaker 1: thank you all for being with us. We really appreciate it. 896 00:51:40,719 --> 00:51:43,520 Speaker 1: Eight hundred and ninety four one, Sean, if you want 897 00:51:43,520 --> 00:51:45,919 Speaker 1: to be a part of this program, all right, let's 898 00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:47,520 Speaker 1: get to some phone calls here. One thing I haven't 899 00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:50,680 Speaker 1: talked a lot about this. This is sad. It seems 900 00:51:51,040 --> 00:51:53,120 Speaker 1: I think it was Tom Cotton that tweeted out, well, 901 00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:56,839 Speaker 1: if you want to be a lawmaker or you want 902 00:51:56,840 --> 00:52:00,960 Speaker 1: to be like an opinion person, maybe just Roberts found 903 00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:04,800 Speaker 1: the wrong profession is ruling on DACA defies any logic 904 00:52:04,840 --> 00:52:08,839 Speaker 1: today ruling against the president's administration and effort to end 905 00:52:08,920 --> 00:52:11,960 Speaker 1: the DOCA program. Remember, we went through this long period 906 00:52:12,040 --> 00:52:15,759 Speaker 1: of time when Barack Obama was president and he says 907 00:52:15,840 --> 00:52:18,480 Speaker 1: I'd like to do it by executive fee up, but 908 00:52:18,560 --> 00:52:20,600 Speaker 1: I just don't have the power to do it, said 909 00:52:20,600 --> 00:52:23,719 Speaker 1: it maybe fifteen twenty times, and then he ended up 910 00:52:23,840 --> 00:52:27,680 Speaker 1: doing it anyway. So there's now controversial five four decision 911 00:52:28,239 --> 00:52:31,759 Speaker 1: with Chief Justice John Roberts joining the liberal members to 912 00:52:31,840 --> 00:52:34,920 Speaker 1: author the opinion. You know, the court said that the 913 00:52:34,960 --> 00:52:39,480 Speaker 1: Department of Homeland Security ZEPHFORT to move to eliminate the 914 00:52:39,520 --> 00:52:43,600 Speaker 1: program was done in an arbitrary and capricious manner, although 915 00:52:43,640 --> 00:52:46,320 Speaker 1: they did not rule on the merits of the program themselves. 916 00:52:46,320 --> 00:52:50,240 Speaker 1: We do not decide whether doc or it's we're sending 917 00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:53,480 Speaker 1: this or sound policies. The wisdom of those decisions is 918 00:52:53,520 --> 00:52:56,680 Speaker 1: none of our concern, Roberts writes in his opinion. We 919 00:52:56,719 --> 00:53:01,640 Speaker 1: address only whether the agency complied with the siegural requirement 920 00:53:01,760 --> 00:53:06,120 Speaker 1: that it provided a reasoned explanation for the action. The 921 00:53:06,160 --> 00:53:10,879 Speaker 1: President's pretty annoyed about this. This comes after days after 922 00:53:10,920 --> 00:53:14,000 Speaker 1: an opinion from his own appointee, Neil Gorss such that 923 00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:19,000 Speaker 1: said employment discrimination et etc. But these horrible and politically 924 00:53:19,080 --> 00:53:22,160 Speaker 1: charged decisions coming out of the Supreme Court are literally 925 00:53:22,239 --> 00:53:25,279 Speaker 1: shotgun blasts into the face of people that are proud 926 00:53:25,320 --> 00:53:29,440 Speaker 1: to call themselves Republicans and conservatives. The president suggesting that 927 00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:31,919 Speaker 1: the Second Amendment could be at risk if he doesn't 928 00:53:31,960 --> 00:53:34,760 Speaker 1: get reelected, and I don't really disagree with him, because 929 00:53:34,840 --> 00:53:37,920 Speaker 1: that's not the job of the US Supreme Court. You know, 930 00:53:38,040 --> 00:53:43,840 Speaker 1: there we have enumerated separation of powers and coequal branches 931 00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:47,359 Speaker 1: of government. You know. Obama hails the decision, even though 932 00:53:47,400 --> 00:53:51,080 Speaker 1: he himself at the time spoke out many times thinking 933 00:53:51,120 --> 00:53:54,760 Speaker 1: he didn't have the power to do this. And Roberts 934 00:53:54,760 --> 00:53:57,720 Speaker 1: in the opinion, writing that the administration failed to consider 935 00:53:57,760 --> 00:54:02,520 Speaker 1: the conspicuous issues of whether to repay retained forbearance, referring 936 00:54:02,560 --> 00:54:05,640 Speaker 1: to the non enforcement of immigration laws, to remove those 937 00:54:05,719 --> 00:54:09,719 Speaker 1: with DACA protection. You know, it's it's it's like to 938 00:54:09,880 --> 00:54:13,480 Speaker 1: try and to thread every needle and avoid any real decisions, 939 00:54:13,480 --> 00:54:17,600 Speaker 1: because it seems to me that we've politicized in many 940 00:54:17,640 --> 00:54:21,320 Speaker 1: ways the judiciary in this country now too, another reason 941 00:54:21,400 --> 00:54:23,680 Speaker 1: in one hundred and thirty eight days, that your vote 942 00:54:23,719 --> 00:54:26,080 Speaker 1: matters a lot. All right, let's get to our phones. 943 00:54:26,200 --> 00:54:29,439 Speaker 1: Let's say hi to Bernie Louisiana. Next Sean Hannity Show. 944 00:54:29,440 --> 00:54:32,040 Speaker 1: How are you, Bernie, Hey, Sean, glad to be on 945 00:54:32,040 --> 00:54:34,799 Speaker 1: your show. You're a great American. Yes, thank you, sir, 946 00:54:34,840 --> 00:54:36,960 Speaker 1: You're a great American. What's going on? I listened to 947 00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:41,360 Speaker 1: this DA talk yesterday and there is a few contradictory 948 00:54:41,360 --> 00:54:46,040 Speaker 1: statements that he made referring to the taser. He used 949 00:54:46,040 --> 00:54:48,120 Speaker 1: it a couple of weeks ago in an NBC News 950 00:54:48,239 --> 00:54:51,160 Speaker 1: article that was written on June tenth, saying that the 951 00:54:51,160 --> 00:54:54,720 Speaker 1: taser was a deadly weapon, and now during this incident, 952 00:54:54,960 --> 00:54:57,799 Speaker 1: it's not. I mean, Greg I think nailed it by 953 00:54:57,840 --> 00:55:01,800 Speaker 1: saying he now probably has to recuse him in many ways. 954 00:55:02,680 --> 00:55:05,840 Speaker 1: And I'm sorry David Shoon saying I would play that 955 00:55:06,040 --> 00:55:08,600 Speaker 1: right at the beginning of the trial, because once they 956 00:55:08,680 --> 00:55:11,799 Speaker 1: know that the prosecutor in the case said those very 957 00:55:11,840 --> 00:55:15,560 Speaker 1: words that a taser is considered a deadly weapon under 958 00:55:15,600 --> 00:55:18,600 Speaker 1: Georgia law. Okay, now the law matters. This is what 959 00:55:18,640 --> 00:55:21,680 Speaker 1: I was saying yesterday. You know, you watch a lot 960 00:55:21,719 --> 00:55:26,880 Speaker 1: of these these high profile cases, and almost every time 961 00:55:26,920 --> 00:55:30,160 Speaker 1: they always overcharge, and what happens when they do it 962 00:55:30,239 --> 00:55:34,600 Speaker 1: is extraordinarily dangerous, and that is they raise the expectations 963 00:55:34,719 --> 00:55:38,000 Speaker 1: of a particular result that when you get into what 964 00:55:38,160 --> 00:55:41,840 Speaker 1: the law is, is not going to ever work the 965 00:55:41,880 --> 00:55:44,200 Speaker 1: way they want it. Now I'm not I'm not. I 966 00:55:44,640 --> 00:55:47,279 Speaker 1: have no idea how this is going to end here, 967 00:55:47,320 --> 00:55:49,600 Speaker 1: but I do believe in our system of laws. It's 968 00:55:49,640 --> 00:55:52,279 Speaker 1: not perfect. It's we're always trying to become a more 969 00:55:52,320 --> 00:55:54,960 Speaker 1: perfect union. But I would say that, you know, you 970 00:55:55,040 --> 00:55:57,560 Speaker 1: only got one side of the story yesterday. You know, 971 00:55:57,600 --> 00:56:00,200 Speaker 1: they kept talking about the tape and you know, the 972 00:56:00,239 --> 00:56:03,759 Speaker 1: forty one seconds, and that in fact, in the case, 973 00:56:03,880 --> 00:56:07,560 Speaker 1: Ray Schard Brooks was being peaceful and he was all 974 00:56:07,840 --> 00:56:11,560 Speaker 1: but he was courteous and professional. The cops were courteous 975 00:56:11,640 --> 00:56:14,200 Speaker 1: and professional. And then it was only at the moment 976 00:56:14,239 --> 00:56:17,120 Speaker 1: of the beginning of the arrest that it was a 977 00:56:17,120 --> 00:56:20,360 Speaker 1: decision of Ray Schard Brooks to resist, fight the cops, 978 00:56:20,400 --> 00:56:22,840 Speaker 1: hit the cops, steal the weapon, runaway, and turn and 979 00:56:23,280 --> 00:56:27,640 Speaker 1: fire the weapon, which, according to the prosecutor, is considered 980 00:56:27,640 --> 00:56:30,240 Speaker 1: a deadly weapon under Georgia law. It makes a difference. 981 00:56:30,280 --> 00:56:33,239 Speaker 1: A good defense lawyer is going to make a very 982 00:56:33,280 --> 00:56:37,399 Speaker 1: compelling cases. The most obvious thing that we know will 983 00:56:37,400 --> 00:56:40,719 Speaker 1: happen here, Sean, when I was in law enforcement, I 984 00:56:40,840 --> 00:56:43,359 Speaker 1: was issued a taser. It was the X twenty six. 985 00:56:43,400 --> 00:56:46,279 Speaker 1: It's an old model. I think they discontinued it. But 986 00:56:46,520 --> 00:56:49,759 Speaker 1: even after it fires the prong, you can still use 987 00:56:49,840 --> 00:56:52,360 Speaker 1: it as a stun gun. If you hold it or 988 00:56:52,400 --> 00:56:55,200 Speaker 1: press it up against the body and pull the trigger, 989 00:56:55,440 --> 00:56:59,719 Speaker 1: will you will send fifty thousand volts of electricity, you know, 990 00:57:00,719 --> 00:57:04,399 Speaker 1: through whatever clothing or whatever the person has on. I've 991 00:57:04,640 --> 00:57:08,400 Speaker 1: actually experienced it in training, and it will drop you 992 00:57:08,520 --> 00:57:12,480 Speaker 1: to the ground. Yeah. Well, apparently Devin gets shot with 993 00:57:12,520 --> 00:57:16,240 Speaker 1: his own taser, the other officer, Devin Bronson, and then 994 00:57:16,240 --> 00:57:18,760 Speaker 1: we find out he has a concussion. Okay, that adds 995 00:57:18,760 --> 00:57:22,200 Speaker 1: a whole new that adds so much context to this 996 00:57:22,240 --> 00:57:24,720 Speaker 1: whole case. None of that was brought out yesterday, and 997 00:57:24,760 --> 00:57:28,760 Speaker 1: that's you know, This is exactly what happened in Ferguson. 998 00:57:29,040 --> 00:57:31,720 Speaker 1: You know, people say, we're wondering, scratching their heads. How 999 00:57:31,760 --> 00:57:34,520 Speaker 1: comes Sean Hannity got it right. We all got it wrong. 1000 00:57:34,600 --> 00:57:39,160 Speaker 1: And if you remember, Barack Obama waited, he rushed to judgment, 1001 00:57:39,320 --> 00:57:42,080 Speaker 1: so many others rushed to judgment, and the media mob 1002 00:57:42,200 --> 00:57:44,800 Speaker 1: the same thing in Baltimore, the rush to judgment. Well, 1003 00:57:44,840 --> 00:57:47,560 Speaker 1: in the case of Ferguson, I had my sources and 1004 00:57:47,640 --> 00:57:50,960 Speaker 1: they all confirmed to me that, in fact, there were eyewitnesses, 1005 00:57:51,200 --> 00:57:57,040 Speaker 1: numerous eyewitnesses, that we're going to testify that Darren Wilson's 1006 00:57:57,040 --> 00:58:02,160 Speaker 1: behavior is and his testimony was exactly accurate, That Michael 1007 00:58:02,200 --> 00:58:04,920 Speaker 1: Brown was told to stop and continue to charge against 1008 00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:08,240 Speaker 1: Darren Wilson, and that the initial altercation where the first 1009 00:58:08,280 --> 00:58:11,160 Speaker 1: gunshot happened, it was in fact Michael Brown reaching in 1010 00:58:11,160 --> 00:58:13,480 Speaker 1: the car trying to grab the police officers gun and 1011 00:58:13,480 --> 00:58:16,200 Speaker 1: there was a struggle there. In the case of Freddie Gray, 1012 00:58:16,440 --> 00:58:19,680 Speaker 1: everybody said, oh slam dunk, these six officers are going 1013 00:58:19,720 --> 00:58:23,040 Speaker 1: to jail. They were wrong again, and they had raised 1014 00:58:23,120 --> 00:58:26,600 Speaker 1: expectations and the results were not good. You know. Look, 1015 00:58:26,680 --> 00:58:29,720 Speaker 1: and then in other cases, Richard Jewel Duke Lacrosse. We 1016 00:58:29,760 --> 00:58:32,760 Speaker 1: were right too. We don't rush to judgment. Now that's 1017 00:58:33,080 --> 00:58:37,600 Speaker 1: very different from George Floyd. There's no eight minutes, you know, 1018 00:58:37,760 --> 00:58:39,960 Speaker 1: seven minutes and fifty five seconds and eight minutes and 1019 00:58:40,040 --> 00:58:44,200 Speaker 1: forty six seconds total. Yeah, there's no ambiguity here. Some 1020 00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:48,280 Speaker 1: cases of you slammed the door shut. You believe your eyes. 1021 00:58:48,720 --> 00:58:51,960 Speaker 1: I got time for a quick call. Let us say 1022 00:58:52,280 --> 00:58:55,600 Speaker 1: hello to Jay in Brooklyn, New York. Jay, Hi, how 1023 00:58:55,600 --> 00:58:58,800 Speaker 1: are you? And You've got the next minute and ten seconds. 1024 00:58:58,840 --> 00:59:03,040 Speaker 1: It's all yours sir, my brother Sean Hannity, big fan 1025 00:59:03,160 --> 00:59:06,840 Speaker 1: of yours, patriot here unashamed of believing in God and 1026 00:59:06,920 --> 00:59:10,680 Speaker 1: his son Jesus Christ. And I just wanted to I 1027 00:59:10,760 --> 00:59:14,280 Speaker 1: just wanted to point out the fact that you know, 1028 00:59:15,200 --> 00:59:19,200 Speaker 1: regarding on the death of George Floyd, it was tragic 1029 00:59:19,320 --> 00:59:22,000 Speaker 1: and seeing the peaceful protesting and at times it's been 1030 00:59:22,120 --> 00:59:26,000 Speaker 1: hijacked here of what we've been seeing. But through all that, 1031 00:59:26,760 --> 00:59:30,960 Speaker 1: we've been seeing the Pandocratic Party and the Rechumplicans not 1032 00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:36,600 Speaker 1: literally voicing the protection of religious a freedom of religion. 1033 00:59:36,680 --> 00:59:41,160 Speaker 1: And I've been seeing how certain faith based groups in 1034 00:59:41,200 --> 00:59:46,320 Speaker 1: New York have been mistreated even under a pandemic crisis, 1035 00:59:46,440 --> 00:59:50,200 Speaker 1: like locking down parts and chaining them. I'm up, but 1036 00:59:50,280 --> 00:59:57,080 Speaker 1: allowing the peaceful protesting through pandemic crisis has been justified. 1037 00:59:57,560 --> 01:00:01,040 Speaker 1: Could you expand a little on that and how this 1038 01:00:01,600 --> 01:00:05,000 Speaker 1: must be rectified? Because according to a person in their 1039 01:00:05,040 --> 01:00:07,600 Speaker 1: right let me give you the quick answer, because I 1040 01:00:07,600 --> 01:00:09,600 Speaker 1: don't have a lot of time. The quick answer is 1041 01:00:09,640 --> 01:00:14,200 Speaker 1: every American, one glorious nation. You said it, under God, 1042 01:00:14,360 --> 01:00:19,600 Speaker 1: one American family. We're failing. We're failing miserably. The first 1043 01:00:19,640 --> 01:00:23,080 Speaker 1: thing children need, our kids, our grandkids, every kid in 1044 01:00:23,080 --> 01:00:25,720 Speaker 1: this country. They need a safe, secure environment where they 1045 01:00:25,720 --> 01:00:28,040 Speaker 1: can grow up. They deserve that. We can do it 1046 01:00:28,080 --> 01:00:30,680 Speaker 1: with the United States. We're not doing it. They need 1047 01:00:30,720 --> 01:00:34,520 Speaker 1: an education. It is the latter to success and more 1048 01:00:34,560 --> 01:00:38,720 Speaker 1: liberty and freedom in everyone's life. We failed them miserably. 1049 01:00:38,760 --> 01:00:42,520 Speaker 1: There's only one way to fix it. Don't vote for 1050 01:00:42,600 --> 01:00:46,960 Speaker 1: these radical, extreme socialists. They're phony promises that will literally 1051 01:00:47,120 --> 01:00:50,640 Speaker 1: destroy the America that we grew up in one hundred 1052 01:00:50,640 --> 01:00:53,080 Speaker 1: and thirty eight days. You're the ultimate jury. All right, 1053 01:00:53,120 --> 01:00:56,160 Speaker 1: got a break, We'll come back other side. Jeron Smith, 1054 01:00:56,240 --> 01:00:59,320 Speaker 1: Deputy Assistant to the President, Deputy Director of the Office 1055 01:00:59,360 --> 01:01:02,960 Speaker 1: of America innovation. That's next an amazing Hannity nine Eastern 1056 01:01:03,040 --> 01:01:05,360 Speaker 1: and your calls next hour eight hundred and ninety four 1057 01:01:05,480 --> 01:01:08,200 Speaker 1: one Sean. You want to be a part of the program, 1058 01:01:08,440 --> 01:01:10,960 Speaker 1: stay right here for our final news round up and 1059 01:01:11,160 --> 01:01:14,200 Speaker 1: information overload can't really fix the heart of people, but 1060 01:01:14,280 --> 01:01:19,200 Speaker 1: you can fix of the individual pieces that deal with 1061 01:01:19,240 --> 01:01:23,720 Speaker 1: the real problem, which is access opportunity. If you talk 1062 01:01:23,720 --> 01:01:26,520 Speaker 1: about the police force, you know, it's about having a 1063 01:01:26,560 --> 01:01:29,440 Speaker 1: police force that represents the community. When we talk about education, 1064 01:01:29,480 --> 01:01:31,920 Speaker 1: it's about access to education. When we talk about access 1065 01:01:31,920 --> 01:01:34,000 Speaker 1: to capital, access to capital, and those are the things 1066 01:01:34,200 --> 01:01:37,439 Speaker 1: that we're really dealing with. That was Jeron Smith. He's 1067 01:01:37,440 --> 01:01:40,560 Speaker 1: the Deputy Assistant to the President, deputy director of the 1068 01:01:40,680 --> 01:01:45,040 Speaker 1: Office of American Innovation. Will introduce him in a minute. 1069 01:01:45,240 --> 01:01:48,280 Speaker 1: You know, it's an amazing time that we're living in here. 1070 01:01:49,320 --> 01:01:52,160 Speaker 1: You know, you watch, for example, look at coronavirus, and 1071 01:01:52,640 --> 01:01:56,600 Speaker 1: you know, pretty amazing a job by the President in 1072 01:01:56,680 --> 01:02:00,400 Speaker 1: terms of the fastest and the largest medical mobile in 1073 01:02:00,440 --> 01:02:04,000 Speaker 1: the history of mankind. And you know, he basically had 1074 01:02:04,040 --> 01:02:06,600 Speaker 1: to do the job of every state for them, because 1075 01:02:06,840 --> 01:02:10,000 Speaker 1: even a state like New York that should anticipate events 1076 01:02:10,040 --> 01:02:12,920 Speaker 1: like this, they were prepared for nothing, and they were 1077 01:02:12,960 --> 01:02:15,560 Speaker 1: telling people go out on the town in early March. 1078 01:02:16,480 --> 01:02:19,640 Speaker 1: They had no ventilators. They never listened to their healthcare 1079 01:02:19,720 --> 01:02:23,160 Speaker 1: task force. Donald Trump built the hospitals, man in the hospitals, 1080 01:02:23,160 --> 01:02:27,080 Speaker 1: converted the hospitals COVID nineteen all the pp It's amazing 1081 01:02:27,120 --> 01:02:29,960 Speaker 1: how they fell, but he bailed them out, and then 1082 01:02:30,600 --> 01:02:34,280 Speaker 1: the entire food supply chain. They bailed out New York 1083 01:02:34,280 --> 01:02:36,720 Speaker 1: and other states as well as did the people that 1084 01:02:36,840 --> 01:02:40,320 Speaker 1: never shut down, working that were producing the medical equipment 1085 01:02:40,360 --> 01:02:44,200 Speaker 1: for everybody in record time. An incredible job that they did. 1086 01:02:44,680 --> 01:02:47,400 Speaker 1: They're not talking about reopening because they never shut down. 1087 01:02:47,520 --> 01:02:50,720 Speaker 1: They worked harder than ever to help other Americans at 1088 01:02:50,720 --> 01:02:53,480 Speaker 1: a time of need. You know, you see the same 1089 01:02:53,480 --> 01:02:57,000 Speaker 1: thing here now as I've been mentioning, especially in the 1090 01:02:57,080 --> 01:03:01,600 Speaker 1: last hour. You know, we have many cops now reconsidering 1091 01:03:01,640 --> 01:03:05,160 Speaker 1: their entire careers. And I can't blame them. You know, 1092 01:03:05,200 --> 01:03:07,880 Speaker 1: the ninety nine percent that risked their lives every day, 1093 01:03:07,880 --> 01:03:09,800 Speaker 1: they don't get paid a whole lot of money. They 1094 01:03:09,800 --> 01:03:12,600 Speaker 1: can make a lot more money, probably doing outside work 1095 01:03:12,600 --> 01:03:16,040 Speaker 1: and many other things with less aggravation and certainly not 1096 01:03:16,080 --> 01:03:18,920 Speaker 1: the abuse that many cops have been getting eight hundred injured, 1097 01:03:19,440 --> 01:03:24,360 Speaker 1: rocks and bricks and molotov cocktails and bottles, some dead, 1098 01:03:24,480 --> 01:03:29,000 Speaker 1: some permanently forever, you know, paralyzed. It's horrible. Nobody seems 1099 01:03:29,000 --> 01:03:31,360 Speaker 1: to want to talk about it. There were peaceful protesters, 1100 01:03:31,360 --> 01:03:33,760 Speaker 1: but there were others within that group that didn't wanted 1101 01:03:33,800 --> 01:03:36,880 Speaker 1: anything other than peace. Then you got the madness in 1102 01:03:36,960 --> 01:03:39,640 Speaker 1: New York and the madness in Seattle, etcetera, etcetera. But 1103 01:03:40,160 --> 01:03:44,040 Speaker 1: you know, for eight long years, Barack and Joe, they 1104 01:03:44,040 --> 01:03:48,320 Speaker 1: had an opportunity, after Ferguson, after Cambridge, after Baltimore, after 1105 01:03:48,320 --> 01:03:53,640 Speaker 1: a whole series of incidences, to make some fundamental changes. 1106 01:03:53,880 --> 01:03:56,040 Speaker 1: But it always comes down to there are those that 1107 01:03:56,120 --> 01:03:58,920 Speaker 1: talk and those that do, and in this case, the 1108 01:03:59,520 --> 01:04:03,240 Speaker 1: changes getting rid of the chokehold unless there is extreme danger, 1109 01:04:03,280 --> 01:04:07,360 Speaker 1: imminent danger to the life of any officer. That happened 1110 01:04:07,480 --> 01:04:11,400 Speaker 1: under Donald Trump. All the other reforms that the President mentioned, 1111 01:04:11,400 --> 01:04:15,560 Speaker 1: and I'll also point out criminal justice reform, opportunity zones, 1112 01:04:16,480 --> 01:04:20,880 Speaker 1: a long term commitment to historically black colleges, record low 1113 01:04:21,000 --> 01:04:25,160 Speaker 1: unemployment for every demographic group in the country, African Americans, 1114 01:04:25,600 --> 01:04:30,320 Speaker 1: Hispanic Americans, Asian Americans, women in the workplace, youth unemployment 1115 01:04:30,320 --> 01:04:33,600 Speaker 1: in African American youth unemployment. None of this resurgence happened 1116 01:04:33,920 --> 01:04:37,120 Speaker 1: in the Joe and Barack days. Didn't happen. They didn't 1117 01:04:37,160 --> 01:04:39,920 Speaker 1: get the job done. Just the opposite. We had thirteen 1118 01:04:39,920 --> 01:04:42,760 Speaker 1: million more Americans on food stamps, eight million more in poverty, 1119 01:04:42,840 --> 01:04:46,320 Speaker 1: lowest labor participation rate since the seventies. So, you know, 1120 01:04:46,360 --> 01:04:47,800 Speaker 1: there's a lot to talk about in the next one 1121 01:04:47,840 --> 01:04:51,120 Speaker 1: hundred and thirty eight days, and especially now that we're 1122 01:04:51,120 --> 01:04:54,400 Speaker 1: seeing every indication the economy will bounce back quicker. Well, 1123 01:04:55,120 --> 01:04:58,640 Speaker 1: you know, we don't know what the what the deciding 1124 01:04:58,760 --> 01:05:02,280 Speaker 1: factors will even be by the time we get to October. Anyway, 1125 01:05:02,320 --> 01:05:04,560 Speaker 1: to talk about a lot of the reforms. Jeron Smith 1126 01:05:04,680 --> 01:05:07,720 Speaker 1: is with US Deputy Assistant to the President, Deputy Director 1127 01:05:07,840 --> 01:05:12,439 Speaker 1: of the Office of American Innovation. You've been watching, sir, 1128 01:05:12,760 --> 01:05:14,880 Speaker 1: you know all of this go on around the country. 1129 01:05:14,920 --> 01:05:17,480 Speaker 1: I watched the President daily. He did it last night 1130 01:05:17,480 --> 01:05:23,120 Speaker 1: on my own television show. He's offering cities like Seattle, 1131 01:05:23,160 --> 01:05:27,120 Speaker 1: and cities like New York and Chicago all the help 1132 01:05:27,200 --> 01:05:30,920 Speaker 1: they need to restore order. They keep rejecting it. He 1133 01:05:30,920 --> 01:05:35,880 Speaker 1: help is offering the governors of those states similarly, Washington State, Illinois, 1134 01:05:36,120 --> 01:05:39,440 Speaker 1: New York, other places the help, when in fact, the 1135 01:05:39,440 --> 01:05:42,320 Speaker 1: President did help in Minneapolis, well, he put an end 1136 01:05:42,360 --> 01:05:44,720 Speaker 1: to what was going on, and the same thing in Washington, DC. 1137 01:05:45,600 --> 01:05:49,400 Speaker 1: Why do you think these governors and mayors steadfastly refuse 1138 01:05:49,960 --> 01:05:52,880 Speaker 1: to accept the help that the President is pleading to 1139 01:05:52,960 --> 01:05:55,640 Speaker 1: give them. I just don't think it makes any sense. 1140 01:05:55,720 --> 01:05:58,480 Speaker 1: You know, so many of the people that these elected 1141 01:05:59,280 --> 01:06:04,880 Speaker 1: individuals were elected for was to help revitalize and strengthen 1142 01:06:04,920 --> 01:06:08,360 Speaker 1: their communities, and what they're doing now is quite the opposite. 1143 01:06:09,000 --> 01:06:12,480 Speaker 1: But again, the President stands ready and willing to work 1144 01:06:12,520 --> 01:06:15,640 Speaker 1: with any local leader to do what's right by their community. 1145 01:06:15,880 --> 01:06:18,280 Speaker 1: But it starts with public safety first. If you don't 1146 01:06:18,320 --> 01:06:20,400 Speaker 1: have public safety, it's hard to get to other things 1147 01:06:20,440 --> 01:06:24,320 Speaker 1: like access to capital or revitalize the neighborhood. And so 1148 01:06:24,800 --> 01:06:26,760 Speaker 1: to me, I think more leaders need to do the 1149 01:06:26,840 --> 01:06:30,479 Speaker 1: right thing and keep their communities safe. Well, I think 1150 01:06:30,480 --> 01:06:33,480 Speaker 1: it's to me. You know, I know we have the 1151 01:06:33,520 --> 01:06:36,400 Speaker 1: Insurrection Act. I know what the Attorney General is said 1152 01:06:36,440 --> 01:06:41,080 Speaker 1: about it. Constitutionally, the language is clear, there's no ambiguity. 1153 01:06:41,160 --> 01:06:44,680 Speaker 1: The President can go in and restore the order if 1154 01:06:44,680 --> 01:06:47,959 Speaker 1: he wants to it may come to that. I pray 1155 01:06:48,000 --> 01:06:51,960 Speaker 1: it never comes to that, but he's obviously ready to 1156 01:06:52,000 --> 01:06:54,280 Speaker 1: do it if needed to do it. It's really though, 1157 01:06:54,320 --> 01:06:57,080 Speaker 1: the jobs of the mayors now. The mayor, for example, 1158 01:06:57,080 --> 01:07:00,120 Speaker 1: in Seattle is talking about an entire summer of of 1159 01:07:00,320 --> 01:07:05,320 Speaker 1: where anarchists get to take over streets of a particular city. 1160 01:07:05,360 --> 01:07:08,080 Speaker 1: I know they're negotiating, we'll give you these blocks back, 1161 01:07:08,080 --> 01:07:10,680 Speaker 1: but we'll keep these blocks. I mean, it's madness to me. 1162 01:07:11,200 --> 01:07:13,560 Speaker 1: There are homes in the area, there are businesses in 1163 01:07:13,600 --> 01:07:17,720 Speaker 1: the area, and there's absolute lawlessness, and she's talking. No, 1164 01:07:17,840 --> 01:07:21,400 Speaker 1: it's a festive atmosphere, and they're pot luck, spaghetti dinners 1165 01:07:21,440 --> 01:07:24,440 Speaker 1: going on everywhere, and it's like one big, you know, 1166 01:07:24,600 --> 01:07:28,240 Speaker 1: summer of Love festival and all the other nonsense we heard. 1167 01:07:29,640 --> 01:07:35,160 Speaker 1: I don't see that as beneficial to anybody when literally 1168 01:07:35,160 --> 01:07:37,960 Speaker 1: the mayor of the city is aiding and abetting the anarchists, 1169 01:07:38,000 --> 01:07:40,520 Speaker 1: that's exactly right. I mean, here we are trying to 1170 01:07:40,520 --> 01:07:44,480 Speaker 1: recover from from the pandemic and getting many of these 1171 01:07:44,560 --> 01:07:47,800 Speaker 1: vulnerable communities back to work and being a part of 1172 01:07:47,800 --> 01:07:51,040 Speaker 1: the American dream, and what these actions are just holding 1173 01:07:51,120 --> 01:07:53,960 Speaker 1: up progress, and in many cases they don't even represent 1174 01:07:54,040 --> 01:07:58,760 Speaker 1: the people who've had the disparity when it relates to justice. 1175 01:07:59,040 --> 01:08:03,800 Speaker 1: And it's fortunate that people with these worldviews are taking 1176 01:08:03,840 --> 01:08:07,760 Speaker 1: advantage of a situation to make an ideological point that 1177 01:08:07,840 --> 01:08:10,479 Speaker 1: doesn't even focus is on the issue at hand, which 1178 01:08:10,560 --> 01:08:13,640 Speaker 1: is creating better police and community relationships. I think what 1179 01:08:13,680 --> 01:08:16,479 Speaker 1: the President did was show us away we can bring 1180 01:08:16,520 --> 01:08:19,479 Speaker 1: the country together. We were able to have law enforcement 1181 01:08:19,560 --> 01:08:23,760 Speaker 1: here and the families, and through the executive order, we 1182 01:08:23,880 --> 01:08:26,760 Speaker 1: heard not only the law enforcement voice on how we 1183 01:08:26,800 --> 01:08:30,120 Speaker 1: can create safer communities and bring the communities together, but 1184 01:08:30,240 --> 01:08:34,200 Speaker 1: also the families who were affected through shootings and the 1185 01:08:34,240 --> 01:08:37,360 Speaker 1: loss of life with the police officers. And so that's 1186 01:08:37,360 --> 01:08:39,559 Speaker 1: a moment to heal, and I think more local leaders 1187 01:08:39,600 --> 01:08:42,519 Speaker 1: should talk about the way to heal instead of creating 1188 01:08:42,560 --> 01:08:46,120 Speaker 1: more divisiveness throughout the country. Well, I'd like to see that. 1189 01:08:46,200 --> 01:08:49,519 Speaker 1: I'd like to see it happen. I am beginning to 1190 01:08:49,880 --> 01:08:54,080 Speaker 1: fear and apparently a lot of police. And then we 1191 01:08:54,240 --> 01:08:57,439 Speaker 1: talked about other cities as well. Are calling in sick 1192 01:08:57,479 --> 01:09:00,160 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, a much higher percentage than usual. Well, 1193 01:09:00,200 --> 01:09:03,560 Speaker 1: there's actually a term for that. It's called the blue flu. 1194 01:09:04,240 --> 01:09:07,839 Speaker 1: We hear these broad, sweeping generalizations that put the police 1195 01:09:07,880 --> 01:09:09,920 Speaker 1: are racist. Many of the big cities, though that we 1196 01:09:09,960 --> 01:09:14,920 Speaker 1: talk about the police force is majority minority police forces, 1197 01:09:15,840 --> 01:09:19,679 Speaker 1: So I guess that that application would be false number 1198 01:09:19,680 --> 01:09:22,720 Speaker 1: one on the surface. But more importantly, you know, I 1199 01:09:22,760 --> 01:09:25,240 Speaker 1: always talk about the ninety nine percent that risked their 1200 01:09:25,240 --> 01:09:27,800 Speaker 1: lives every day. Eighty nine cops were killed in the 1201 01:09:27,840 --> 01:09:31,080 Speaker 1: line of a duty last year. In twenty eighteen, police 1202 01:09:31,160 --> 01:09:34,720 Speaker 1: arrested twelve thousand people for murder and manslaughter, twenty five 1203 01:09:34,760 --> 01:09:38,439 Speaker 1: thousand people for rape, and one point five million people 1204 01:09:38,479 --> 01:09:42,160 Speaker 1: for assault. Now, if we defund the police or we 1205 01:09:42,240 --> 01:09:45,679 Speaker 1: dismantle the police, which is a constant refrain we're hearing 1206 01:09:45,680 --> 01:09:48,519 Speaker 1: every day, and we allow people to burn down police 1207 01:09:48,560 --> 01:09:52,920 Speaker 1: precincts or take them over completely and push the police 1208 01:09:52,920 --> 01:09:56,080 Speaker 1: out of the way, I don't see that ending well 1209 01:09:56,120 --> 01:09:59,200 Speaker 1: at all. That's exactly right. Let's see, they're not really 1210 01:09:59,280 --> 01:10:02,000 Speaker 1: trying to solve the problem. You know, how can we 1211 01:10:02,040 --> 01:10:07,320 Speaker 1: invest in these communities and promote and retain or recruit 1212 01:10:07,720 --> 01:10:10,919 Speaker 1: people from the community to serve on the police department. 1213 01:10:11,520 --> 01:10:15,120 Speaker 1: How can we can and invest more so that the 1214 01:10:15,240 --> 01:10:19,120 Speaker 1: wages are competitive and so law enforcement officer doesn't have 1215 01:10:19,160 --> 01:10:22,160 Speaker 1: a choice with just working there or some you know 1216 01:10:22,479 --> 01:10:26,439 Speaker 1: a job that's you know that has terrible wages but 1217 01:10:26,520 --> 01:10:29,760 Speaker 1: doesn't have as near as many risks and UM. And 1218 01:10:29,800 --> 01:10:32,519 Speaker 1: that's the problem that we're dealing with law enforcement departments 1219 01:10:32,600 --> 01:10:34,960 Speaker 1: is that they have to um go far and wide 1220 01:10:35,000 --> 01:10:37,559 Speaker 1: to find more people who want to police. And so 1221 01:10:37,640 --> 01:10:40,799 Speaker 1: it's definitely a noble profession. And we need to create 1222 01:10:40,840 --> 01:10:44,320 Speaker 1: more community policing and the recruit people from the community. 1223 01:10:44,360 --> 01:10:46,320 Speaker 1: And that's what the Executive Order is calling for, a 1224 01:10:46,520 --> 01:10:50,959 Speaker 1: recruitment and retention of law enforcement officers and the best 1225 01:10:51,120 --> 01:10:54,400 Speaker 1: quality law enforcement officers were we're pushing to create UM 1226 01:10:54,680 --> 01:10:58,040 Speaker 1: great standards. There are standards that exist and many of 1227 01:10:58,080 --> 01:11:01,840 Speaker 1: these liberal cities, like many apples, have old standards for 1228 01:11:02,000 --> 01:11:05,439 Speaker 1: use of force and old standards for de escalation training. UM. 1229 01:11:05,479 --> 01:11:07,840 Speaker 1: There's a way to do this, and and it doesn't 1230 01:11:07,840 --> 01:11:11,680 Speaker 1: involve defunding the police, because doing that only hurts the 1231 01:11:11,720 --> 01:11:15,840 Speaker 1: most vulnerable populations. UM. The places that are affluent can 1232 01:11:15,920 --> 01:11:19,120 Speaker 1: afford police department, they can afford the best police. It's 1233 01:11:19,160 --> 01:11:23,000 Speaker 1: the vulnerable communities that if you defund would be hit 1234 01:11:23,080 --> 01:11:25,840 Speaker 1: the hardest and or be more at risk or being 1235 01:11:25,920 --> 01:11:29,840 Speaker 1: victimized by those individuals in society to which we want 1236 01:11:29,880 --> 01:11:32,920 Speaker 1: police to protect us from. UM and uh. And that's 1237 01:11:32,920 --> 01:11:34,960 Speaker 1: how we create safe communities. And that's what the President 1238 01:11:35,040 --> 01:11:37,839 Speaker 1: is focused on, is making sure that police and community 1239 01:11:37,840 --> 01:11:41,240 Speaker 1: relation is there and that trust is built, but also 1240 01:11:41,320 --> 01:11:44,000 Speaker 1: making sure that public safety is that is the first 1241 01:11:44,320 --> 01:11:47,200 Speaker 1: and most important thing that's always taken care of. You know, 1242 01:11:47,280 --> 01:11:50,040 Speaker 1: it's very important. You know. I'm all for a lot 1243 01:11:50,120 --> 01:11:52,519 Speaker 1: of the changes. One of the things I've been asking 1244 01:11:52,560 --> 01:11:54,960 Speaker 1: for and really wanting, and the President addressed us as 1245 01:11:55,000 --> 01:11:58,839 Speaker 1: part of his reforms. UM. I know, most most police 1246 01:11:58,960 --> 01:12:03,080 Speaker 1: departments have their officers, they have to go through firearms 1247 01:12:03,080 --> 01:12:07,639 Speaker 1: certification usually every six months every year. Whatever whatever the police, 1248 01:12:08,360 --> 01:12:10,760 Speaker 1: the city police demand, whatever it happens to be. I 1249 01:12:10,800 --> 01:12:15,000 Speaker 1: don't see a lot of ongoing continuing education. I just 1250 01:12:15,040 --> 01:12:17,920 Speaker 1: happen to love martial arts. I'm a student of martial arts. 1251 01:12:17,920 --> 01:12:19,760 Speaker 1: I trained four or five days a week. I know 1252 01:12:19,840 --> 01:12:23,799 Speaker 1: a lot about Japanese, Brazilian jiu jitsu and quab McGaw 1253 01:12:23,880 --> 01:12:27,960 Speaker 1: and kempo and situational street fighting, you know. And I 1254 01:12:28,000 --> 01:12:31,839 Speaker 1: don't see that the cops have even the most basic 1255 01:12:32,000 --> 01:12:34,759 Speaker 1: level of training. For example, in the case of George Floyd. 1256 01:12:35,439 --> 01:12:38,520 Speaker 1: It was already handcuffed. You're in full control. The conflict 1257 01:12:38,560 --> 01:12:40,679 Speaker 1: for the most part is then over. If he's giving 1258 01:12:40,720 --> 01:12:43,000 Speaker 1: you more of a problem, is more that you can 1259 01:12:43,080 --> 01:12:48,000 Speaker 1: do with his wrist and fingers, very very specific pressure 1260 01:12:48,120 --> 01:12:53,960 Speaker 1: point moves that will guarantee compliance, not one hundred percent, 1261 01:12:54,000 --> 01:12:57,960 Speaker 1: it will guarantee all the compliance you want. And yeah, 1262 01:12:58,000 --> 01:13:00,479 Speaker 1: that's exactly right, and I think that's what the President 1263 01:13:00,560 --> 01:13:03,360 Speaker 1: is pushing for that there's certainly a better way to 1264 01:13:04,520 --> 01:13:08,040 Speaker 1: incentivize more police departments to get accredited, and that's what 1265 01:13:08,120 --> 01:13:11,840 Speaker 1: we're doing in this executive order. We have on conditioned 1266 01:13:11,920 --> 01:13:17,840 Speaker 1: grants where individuals get are more competitive for DJ resources 1267 01:13:18,040 --> 01:13:20,760 Speaker 1: UM if they're accredited and being accredited, make sure as 1268 01:13:20,800 --> 01:13:24,479 Speaker 1: you have the updated standards on use of force, that 1269 01:13:24,560 --> 01:13:28,880 Speaker 1: you have the updated de escalated de escalation strategy and 1270 01:13:28,960 --> 01:13:31,920 Speaker 1: continuing education that you need, and also make sure that 1271 01:13:32,600 --> 01:13:35,240 Speaker 1: you're using the best strategies to create better community and 1272 01:13:35,280 --> 01:13:38,600 Speaker 1: police relationships. And another piece that we're really focused on 1273 01:13:38,720 --> 01:13:42,519 Speaker 1: is corresponders. Many police departments work with social workers on 1274 01:13:42,640 --> 01:13:46,679 Speaker 1: those social workers deal with issues where people have mental 1275 01:13:46,720 --> 01:13:51,000 Speaker 1: health issues or are dealing with addiction or homelessness. Many 1276 01:13:51,040 --> 01:13:54,800 Speaker 1: times police are overwhelmed with those type of issues and 1277 01:13:55,040 --> 01:13:57,479 Speaker 1: it may not even that. So many times O doesn't 1278 01:13:57,520 --> 01:14:00,639 Speaker 1: even include any violence at all. It's just someone who 1279 01:14:00,680 --> 01:14:03,759 Speaker 1: needs maybe a social worker, and we're going to invest 1280 01:14:04,520 --> 01:14:08,920 Speaker 1: in that with a joint partnership between DJ and HHS. 1281 01:14:09,200 --> 01:14:12,240 Speaker 1: But there's common sense ways to get there, and we've 1282 01:14:12,280 --> 01:14:15,600 Speaker 1: seen some of those examples on the ground, and we 1283 01:14:15,680 --> 01:14:19,679 Speaker 1: have many law enforcement agencies that really want to support 1284 01:14:19,720 --> 01:14:23,439 Speaker 1: something like that, because no person hates a bad cop 1285 01:14:23,560 --> 01:14:26,240 Speaker 1: more than a good law enforcement officer. All right, we 1286 01:14:26,280 --> 01:14:28,680 Speaker 1: really appreciate your time. Thanks for shutting some light on that. 1287 01:14:28,800 --> 01:14:32,080 Speaker 1: J Ron Smith, Deputy Assistant to the President, Deputy Director 1288 01:14:32,240 --> 01:14:35,120 Speaker 1: the Office of American Innovation. You know what, when we 1289 01:14:35,160 --> 01:14:37,799 Speaker 1: want to improve things where the United States of America, 1290 01:14:37,920 --> 01:14:40,200 Speaker 1: we can make the changes, and that for me also 1291 01:14:40,240 --> 01:14:44,320 Speaker 1: includes non lethal alternatives for police, which I've discussed a lot. Sir, 1292 01:14:44,439 --> 01:14:46,400 Speaker 1: Thank you for being with us. Appreciate your time today. 1293 01:14:46,560 --> 01:14:48,200 Speaker 1: All right, we got time for a quick call here. 1294 01:14:48,760 --> 01:14:52,400 Speaker 1: We'll take calls for the next half hour, final half 1295 01:14:52,400 --> 01:14:54,679 Speaker 1: hour of the program today, eight hundred nine four one. Sean, 1296 01:14:54,720 --> 01:14:58,599 Speaker 1: if you want to be with us today, Zeke Florida. 1297 01:14:58,760 --> 01:15:01,160 Speaker 1: Next Sean Hannity Show. How are you, Zeke, We'll be 1298 01:15:01,200 --> 01:15:03,360 Speaker 1: watching your state in one hundred and thirty eight days. 1299 01:15:03,880 --> 01:15:06,680 Speaker 1: Help us out, okay, my friends, Well, yes, sir. The 1300 01:15:06,760 --> 01:15:08,439 Speaker 1: thing that I would like to talk with you about 1301 01:15:08,920 --> 01:15:13,560 Speaker 1: is a term that you never hear called prosecutorial reform. 1302 01:15:13,880 --> 01:15:16,559 Speaker 1: What you said was an abarition a little bit ago 1303 01:15:17,000 --> 01:15:19,800 Speaker 1: in the overcharging in the land. It is quite commonplace 1304 01:15:19,880 --> 01:15:23,320 Speaker 1: and quite usual, and it's what a lot of people 1305 01:15:23,400 --> 01:15:29,240 Speaker 1: is calling racial injustice and stuff like that, or systematic racism. 1306 01:15:29,600 --> 01:15:34,240 Speaker 1: It's quite honestly, it's socio economic disparities because the same 1307 01:15:34,280 --> 01:15:36,559 Speaker 1: thing that they're doing to this police officer over here 1308 01:15:36,600 --> 01:15:40,240 Speaker 1: with the overcharging happens routinely. And what they do is 1309 01:15:40,240 --> 01:15:44,080 Speaker 1: these prosecutors like Comalba Hairs per se. Okay, they will 1310 01:15:44,160 --> 01:15:48,840 Speaker 1: routinely overcharge to get the person in the jail system. Okay, one. 1311 01:15:49,200 --> 01:15:52,120 Speaker 1: But what happens is this person has to take a 1312 01:15:52,160 --> 01:15:55,160 Speaker 1: plea bargain. And if not that a lot of times 1313 01:15:55,160 --> 01:15:57,280 Speaker 1: they're sitting in jail, they're losing their homes, they're losing 1314 01:15:57,280 --> 01:16:00,280 Speaker 1: their families and everything like that. They overcharged them to 1315 01:16:00,360 --> 01:16:02,600 Speaker 1: coerce them to take a plea bargain and then what 1316 01:16:02,680 --> 01:16:05,240 Speaker 1: happens is they can stand there on election day and say, oh, 1317 01:16:05,320 --> 01:16:08,600 Speaker 1: I got let me tell you something. I don't have 1318 01:16:08,640 --> 01:16:10,479 Speaker 1: a lot of time this segment. We'll take all calls 1319 01:16:10,479 --> 01:16:11,800 Speaker 1: on the other side, but let me tell you something. 1320 01:16:11,840 --> 01:16:15,120 Speaker 1: You're und percent right. And a lot of prosecutors build 1321 01:16:15,120 --> 01:16:21,519 Speaker 1: their political career on prosecutorial overcharging and abuse, and often 1322 01:16:21,520 --> 01:16:23,840 Speaker 1: it blows up in their face and we don't learn 1323 01:16:23,920 --> 01:16:27,000 Speaker 1: from it. It can't. It's got to stop anyway, good point, 1324 01:16:27,040 --> 01:16:29,040 Speaker 1: appreciate it.

If you want to be a part of 1329 01:16:38,800 --> 01:16:42,360 Speaker 1: this extravaganza, you know, I just I just don't have 1330 01:16:42,400 --> 01:16:45,400 Speaker 1: any interest. As I said earlier in the program on 1331 01:16:45,520 --> 01:16:48,479 Speaker 1: John Bolton, I just you know his statements that he 1332 01:16:48,560 --> 01:16:53,360 Speaker 1: has made again and again. Oh the President, there's no 1333 01:16:53,479 --> 01:16:57,599 Speaker 1: evidency soft on Russia. Uh you know what, there isn't 1334 01:16:57,640 --> 01:17:02,760 Speaker 1: any evidence. Book comes out and now impeachment democrats blasting 1335 01:17:02,880 --> 01:17:06,240 Speaker 1: Bolton's book after it turns out to be a nothing burger, 1336 01:17:06,600 --> 01:17:10,720 Speaker 1: you know, even the corrupt compromise congenital liar shifts. Yeah, 1337 01:17:10,920 --> 01:17:16,320 Speaker 1: he's no patriot, he's no Okay, well whatever, I don't 1338 01:17:16,320 --> 01:17:19,599 Speaker 1: really care John Bolton. You know, look at what they're saying. 1339 01:17:20,600 --> 01:17:23,520 Speaker 1: You can't you sign a paper, you make an agreement 1340 01:17:23,640 --> 01:17:26,840 Speaker 1: that you're not going to divulge secrets that are of 1341 01:17:26,960 --> 01:17:31,360 Speaker 1: national security importance. And as I pointed out, is yeah, 1342 01:17:31,400 --> 01:17:33,680 Speaker 1: he didn't go through the process that he himself had 1343 01:17:33,720 --> 01:17:37,559 Speaker 1: agreed to, and that he's attempting in this book to 1344 01:17:37,640 --> 01:17:41,760 Speaker 1: contain classified information is clear. Now I'm just saying I'm 1345 01:17:41,760 --> 01:17:43,920 Speaker 1: not going to go into the details. I really don't 1346 01:17:43,920 --> 01:17:46,800 Speaker 1: care about what John Bolton has to say because I 1347 01:17:46,960 --> 01:17:49,479 Speaker 1: now know that he wasn't telling me the truth on 1348 01:17:50,040 --> 01:17:54,840 Speaker 1: a number of occasions, and my feelings hurt. No, do 1349 01:17:54,880 --> 01:17:57,880 Speaker 1: I trust anything he does? And says, Nope, not at all, 1350 01:17:57,920 --> 01:18:01,200 Speaker 1: because I know better and he knows I know better. Anyway, 1351 01:18:01,200 --> 01:18:03,080 Speaker 1: all right, let's get to our phones. Eight hundred and 1352 01:18:03,160 --> 01:18:04,840 Speaker 1: ninety four one, Sean, you want to be a part 1353 01:18:04,840 --> 01:18:07,479 Speaker 1: of the program. Ed and Charlotte, you're on the Sean 1354 01:18:07,560 --> 01:18:10,320 Speaker 1: Hannity Show. Glad you called sir, Hello, Sean, Great to 1355 01:18:10,360 --> 01:18:12,640 Speaker 1: be on your show. Thank you for having me. Thank you. 1356 01:18:12,680 --> 01:18:14,840 Speaker 1: What's happening for the Seattle? I haven't answered for the 1357 01:18:14,880 --> 01:18:17,800 Speaker 1: Seattle's the zone in the six block area. And if 1358 01:18:17,840 --> 01:18:21,120 Speaker 1: you can remember back in January when Roger Stone sixty 1359 01:18:21,160 --> 01:18:23,519 Speaker 1: six years old and his wife who was seventy four, 1360 01:18:24,000 --> 01:18:26,640 Speaker 1: they were hit by the FBI's heavily armed guys that 1361 01:18:26,800 --> 01:18:31,600 Speaker 1: rated their home. Twenty nine guys tactical gear on a 1362 01:18:31,720 --> 01:18:35,559 Speaker 1: process crime and red dot lights, battering ram handcuffs. They 1363 01:18:35,600 --> 01:18:38,120 Speaker 1: got Roger Stone barefoot, handcuffed them. They came on a 1364 01:18:38,160 --> 01:18:40,720 Speaker 1: boat front of the house and the back of the house. Well, 1365 01:18:40,760 --> 01:18:43,840 Speaker 1: where is Christopher ready to send out an elite, incredibly 1366 01:18:43,880 --> 01:18:46,960 Speaker 1: powerful FBI squad and go into the Seattle zone at 1367 01:18:47,000 --> 01:18:48,479 Speaker 1: five o'clock in the morning. Most of them would be 1368 01:18:48,520 --> 01:18:50,519 Speaker 1: a high as a kite out sleeping and take it 1369 01:18:50,720 --> 01:18:52,280 Speaker 1: over and get them out and get it straight. Now, 1370 01:18:52,439 --> 01:18:56,160 Speaker 1: what's the problem with that. They can do all of that. 1371 01:18:56,160 --> 01:18:59,720 Speaker 1: That's not an issue at all. The problem here is 1372 01:19:00,200 --> 01:19:01,960 Speaker 1: the way I see it, and I think the President 1373 01:19:02,040 --> 01:19:04,240 Speaker 1: is handling it perfectly because I think there's a bit 1374 01:19:04,280 --> 01:19:08,840 Speaker 1: of a trap here and I think, a look, this 1375 01:19:08,960 --> 01:19:13,000 Speaker 1: is not the job of the president of the United States. 1376 01:19:13,760 --> 01:19:18,160 Speaker 1: It is not his job to micro manage the states. 1377 01:19:18,280 --> 01:19:22,040 Speaker 1: That's why people elect mayors, That's why people elect governors. 1378 01:19:22,479 --> 01:19:27,240 Speaker 1: For the president. For the president to assert the power 1379 01:19:27,240 --> 01:19:32,120 Speaker 1: and authority of these states when they are steadfastly rejecting 1380 01:19:32,240 --> 01:19:35,400 Speaker 1: his help. Is basically plead you with them. I'll help you. 1381 01:19:35,800 --> 01:19:38,160 Speaker 1: I've already done it here in DC. We've done it 1382 01:19:38,160 --> 01:19:40,120 Speaker 1: in Minneapolis. We can help you in New York. We 1383 01:19:40,120 --> 01:19:42,280 Speaker 1: can help you in Illinois, we can help you in Seattle. 1384 01:19:42,560 --> 01:19:44,720 Speaker 1: You know, look, if it comes to that moment, I 1385 01:19:45,760 --> 01:19:48,160 Speaker 1: just happen to know the president well enough that he's 1386 01:19:48,200 --> 01:19:50,840 Speaker 1: prepared and they're going to be ready to go, and 1387 01:19:50,880 --> 01:19:53,880 Speaker 1: they will restore order. It might not be pretty, but 1388 01:19:53,960 --> 01:19:56,120 Speaker 1: I think the trap has said, I just I would 1389 01:19:56,200 --> 01:20:00,479 Speaker 1: rather while it's not that out of hand, let the 1390 01:20:00,560 --> 01:20:04,000 Speaker 1: governors and the mayors, let them do their job, give 1391 01:20:04,040 --> 01:20:06,400 Speaker 1: them the resources if they don't want to ask for them. 1392 01:20:06,439 --> 01:20:08,200 Speaker 1: At some point, you may have to do it all 1393 01:20:08,240 --> 01:20:11,320 Speaker 1: for them. We'll know when that moment comes. That moment 1394 01:20:11,439 --> 01:20:14,360 Speaker 1: is not here yet, and there's something else that happens 1395 01:20:14,360 --> 01:20:17,800 Speaker 1: as a result. You want to know what the New 1396 01:20:17,920 --> 01:20:24,040 Speaker 1: Green Deal, socialist, radical, extreme democratic America will look like 1397 01:20:24,200 --> 01:20:28,200 Speaker 1: if they win, If Democrats and ever confused Joe Biden 1398 01:20:28,280 --> 01:20:31,400 Speaker 1: ever wins in a one hundred and thirty eight days, 1399 01:20:31,520 --> 01:20:34,440 Speaker 1: is going to look like I'll give you some examples. 1400 01:20:34,479 --> 01:20:37,639 Speaker 1: It'll look like New York, It'll look like Illinois, it'll 1401 01:20:37,640 --> 01:20:41,280 Speaker 1: look like California, it'll look like New Jersey, and it 1402 01:20:41,320 --> 01:20:44,720 Speaker 1: will be a mess. You'll get your sanctuary cities, you'll 1403 01:20:44,760 --> 01:20:49,000 Speaker 1: get your sanctuary states, You'll get your open borders. You'll 1404 01:20:49,040 --> 01:20:52,160 Speaker 1: get more money and cargo planes dropped on the tarmac 1405 01:20:52,160 --> 01:20:57,840 Speaker 1: and Iran to appease Mullah's you will get higher taxes, confiscation, 1406 01:20:58,000 --> 01:21:02,120 Speaker 1: false promises of everything is you'll eliminate the lifeblood of 1407 01:21:02,160 --> 01:21:05,200 Speaker 1: the world's economy, and America as we know it will 1408 01:21:05,240 --> 01:21:09,439 Speaker 1: look very differently by the time they're done in four years. 1409 01:21:09,560 --> 01:21:13,439 Speaker 1: And I don't I don't know if if that's ever done, 1410 01:21:13,880 --> 01:21:16,840 Speaker 1: if that's ever implemented, if we'd ever recover. My guess 1411 01:21:16,920 --> 01:21:20,240 Speaker 1: is it's impossible. I think the damage will be done 1412 01:21:20,320 --> 01:21:24,679 Speaker 1: and irreparable harm will exist. That's what I believe. That's 1413 01:21:24,720 --> 01:21:28,559 Speaker 1: why I have a sense of urgency, and I'm kind 1414 01:21:28,560 --> 01:21:31,160 Speaker 1: of an urgent person by nature. But it's like a 1415 01:21:31,200 --> 01:21:35,439 Speaker 1: five alarm fire. All the sirens blaring in my brain. 1416 01:21:36,000 --> 01:21:38,519 Speaker 1: This is not going to end well, and we can 1417 01:21:38,760 --> 01:21:40,360 Speaker 1: you know, look, let me let me add it to 1418 01:21:40,360 --> 01:21:42,479 Speaker 1: one other thing. You raise great questions, a good call. 1419 01:21:42,479 --> 01:21:44,559 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go off and on a different tangent here, 1420 01:21:44,600 --> 01:21:45,920 Speaker 1: so I want to thank you for your call. You 1421 01:21:45,960 --> 01:21:48,320 Speaker 1: make a lot of great points. You know, there is 1422 01:21:49,120 --> 01:21:52,280 Speaker 1: Wall Street Journal article today, Well actually I'm looking at 1423 01:21:52,320 --> 01:21:55,799 Speaker 1: two of them, but one is by this guy, Daniel 1424 01:21:55,800 --> 01:21:58,960 Speaker 1: Heninger's great writer, and you know it's part of their 1425 01:21:59,000 --> 01:22:01,400 Speaker 1: coverage at the Wall Street Journal. They're pointing out San 1426 01:22:01,439 --> 01:22:06,480 Speaker 1: Francisco's apartment market has now gone in reverse. The apartment 1427 01:22:06,600 --> 01:22:09,519 Speaker 1: vacancy rate in San Francisco is now up six point 1428 01:22:09,600 --> 01:22:13,240 Speaker 1: two percent. They point out the most expensive apartment market 1429 01:22:13,280 --> 01:22:18,840 Speaker 1: in the US. Well, rents are tumbling, the tech sector 1430 01:22:18,960 --> 01:22:24,120 Speaker 1: jobs are shedding, people are leaving in droves. Anecdotally. Was 1431 01:22:24,240 --> 01:22:26,559 Speaker 1: Mike Huckabe the first pointed out to me that if 1432 01:22:26,600 --> 01:22:30,240 Speaker 1: you take a U haul from California, Los Angeles or 1433 01:22:30,240 --> 01:22:33,240 Speaker 1: San Francisco to Texas, you know you'll pay anywhere between 1434 01:22:33,280 --> 01:22:36,479 Speaker 1: two thousand, twenty five hundred bucks. But if you take 1435 01:22:36,479 --> 01:22:39,400 Speaker 1: that same U haul from that same location in Texas 1436 01:22:39,479 --> 01:22:41,960 Speaker 1: back to those areas. You'll get it for four hundred 1437 01:22:41,960 --> 01:22:45,639 Speaker 1: bucks or less. Why because you're doing U haul a favor. 1438 01:22:46,080 --> 01:22:50,479 Speaker 1: Because the business of leaving California is a lot better 1439 01:22:50,840 --> 01:22:53,559 Speaker 1: and bigger than the business of leaving Texas. People are 1440 01:22:53,600 --> 01:22:56,840 Speaker 1: moving into Texas. New York is the number one state 1441 01:22:56,880 --> 01:22:59,479 Speaker 1: where people are leaving. You know, at the biggest growth 1442 01:22:59,520 --> 01:23:03,120 Speaker 1: industry in New York is New York government following people 1443 01:23:03,160 --> 01:23:05,439 Speaker 1: that move out of state and become residents of other 1444 01:23:05,520 --> 01:23:10,439 Speaker 1: states and hassling and harassing them to prove that they're 1445 01:23:10,520 --> 01:23:14,439 Speaker 1: really residents of these other states. And they've got entire 1446 01:23:14,520 --> 01:23:17,480 Speaker 1: departments set up. You move out, you declare your residency. 1447 01:23:17,920 --> 01:23:20,200 Speaker 1: You follow the law one hundred and eighty one days 1448 01:23:20,280 --> 01:23:23,519 Speaker 1: to be a resident of Florida. Huh, New York, Why 1449 01:23:23,520 --> 01:23:27,360 Speaker 1: does Sean Hannity know that? M makes you wonder? Because 1450 01:23:27,400 --> 01:23:30,479 Speaker 1: I pay a lot of taxes in New York. Mostly 1451 01:23:30,560 --> 01:23:33,680 Speaker 1: my business or the job of television and radio has 1452 01:23:33,760 --> 01:23:36,880 Speaker 1: kept me here. But the people are leaving now. If 1453 01:23:36,920 --> 01:23:40,519 Speaker 1: people are going to leave these blue states, that taxs 1454 01:23:40,600 --> 01:23:44,519 Speaker 1: you through the roof, that mismanage all of your money 1455 01:23:44,720 --> 01:23:48,560 Speaker 1: that are incapable of fundamental safety that can't in a 1456 01:23:48,720 --> 01:23:51,960 Speaker 1: state like New York with the highest concentration of people 1457 01:23:52,120 --> 01:23:57,519 Speaker 1: in the smallest geographic area. Don't prepare for pandemics and 1458 01:23:57,560 --> 01:24:01,360 Speaker 1: listen to their health task force if they're not prepared, 1459 01:24:01,400 --> 01:24:04,960 Speaker 1: obviously for any big kind of medical emergency, if there's, 1460 01:24:05,040 --> 01:24:07,559 Speaker 1: God forbid, another terrorist attack. But we are a terror 1461 01:24:07,600 --> 01:24:11,960 Speaker 1: target in New York City especially, and you do wasting money, 1462 01:24:12,240 --> 01:24:15,439 Speaker 1: you know, hundreds of millions of dollars on you know, 1463 01:24:15,520 --> 01:24:18,960 Speaker 1: microchip companies, and you know all sorts of other green 1464 01:24:19,040 --> 01:24:22,840 Speaker 1: industries and light bulb companies. People have had it, and 1465 01:24:22,840 --> 01:24:25,640 Speaker 1: they're gonna leave, and they're gonna leave in droves, and 1466 01:24:25,760 --> 01:24:28,559 Speaker 1: people know enough is enough. All right, Let's go to 1467 01:24:28,960 --> 01:24:32,320 Speaker 1: back to our phones. Let's say hi to Grace in California. Hey, Grace, 1468 01:24:32,360 --> 01:24:34,320 Speaker 1: how are you glad you called? Hi? Sean, It's an 1469 01:24:34,320 --> 01:24:36,000 Speaker 1: honor to speak with you. Thank you so much for 1470 01:24:36,080 --> 01:24:40,000 Speaker 1: taking my call. Discuss the app Thank you. I'm calling 1471 01:24:40,000 --> 01:24:43,080 Speaker 1: to discuss the absolute hypocrisy and double standards that we 1472 01:24:43,160 --> 01:24:46,240 Speaker 1: the American people, have endured over the last three months. 1473 01:24:46,240 --> 01:24:48,120 Speaker 1: In light of what we've seen in recent weeks with 1474 01:24:48,200 --> 01:24:52,480 Speaker 1: the protests and specifically the George Floyd memorial service in Minneapolis. 1475 01:24:53,160 --> 01:24:56,040 Speaker 1: The consequences of COVID nineteen, as you're well aware, are 1476 01:24:56,040 --> 01:24:59,360 Speaker 1: still going on. Many Americans are still stuck in this 1477 01:24:59,479 --> 01:25:01,879 Speaker 1: kind of whole pattern while the world is going crazy, 1478 01:25:01,960 --> 01:25:05,280 Speaker 1: especially in blue states like where I am. I'm a Christian, 1479 01:25:05,320 --> 01:25:09,200 Speaker 1: patriotic American millennial, and for going on three months, the 1480 01:25:09,240 --> 01:25:11,479 Speaker 1: American people have been told how and when we can 1481 01:25:11,560 --> 01:25:14,400 Speaker 1: gather and meet together, specifically in houses of worship for 1482 01:25:14,520 --> 01:25:18,719 Speaker 1: church services, funerals, and weddings, completely undermining the First Amendment. 1483 01:25:19,160 --> 01:25:23,280 Speaker 1: And yet during the George Floyd memorial services, Americans watched 1484 01:25:23,320 --> 01:25:27,960 Speaker 1: a church funeral service setting televised nationally showing attendee sitting 1485 01:25:27,960 --> 01:25:31,799 Speaker 1: shoulder to shoulder, some masked but some weren't. Al Sharpton 1486 01:25:31,960 --> 01:25:35,920 Speaker 1: preached unmasked. Singers were unmasked, which I found kind of 1487 01:25:36,000 --> 01:25:39,040 Speaker 1: comical after churches have been advised to refrain from singing 1488 01:25:39,080 --> 01:25:42,000 Speaker 1: to help stop the COVID nineteen spread. And the point 1489 01:25:42,040 --> 01:25:44,040 Speaker 1: I want to make is that they had the right 1490 01:25:44,080 --> 01:25:46,479 Speaker 1: to hold this service exactly in the manner in which 1491 01:25:46,479 --> 01:25:49,160 Speaker 1: they did. But even as we speak, there are Americans 1492 01:25:49,160 --> 01:25:51,160 Speaker 1: who have not been able to worship or gather in 1493 01:25:51,240 --> 01:25:55,000 Speaker 1: their churches like that. The COVID nineteen patients have died 1494 01:25:55,200 --> 01:25:58,200 Speaker 1: apart from their families, and their loved ones were forced 1495 01:25:58,200 --> 01:26:01,040 Speaker 1: to grieve in isolation, not to mention all of the 1496 01:26:01,120 --> 01:26:05,240 Speaker 1: other deaths from various other causes in the last three months. Recently, 1497 01:26:05,560 --> 01:26:09,799 Speaker 1: we have seen innocent, heroic police officers murdered in anti 1498 01:26:09,880 --> 01:26:13,280 Speaker 1: American violence, and no memorial services are being held for 1499 01:26:13,360 --> 01:26:15,880 Speaker 1: them that I can see right now being televised across 1500 01:26:15,920 --> 01:26:19,120 Speaker 1: the country. We are seeing a full display of liberal 1501 01:26:19,240 --> 01:26:23,960 Speaker 1: socialist ideology that gives freedom for some these liberal socialist elites, 1502 01:26:24,360 --> 01:26:27,639 Speaker 1: but not for us, the American people. And it racially 1503 01:26:27,760 --> 01:26:31,080 Speaker 1: cannot be overstated, in my opinion, how much heartache the 1504 01:26:31,080 --> 01:26:34,280 Speaker 1: American people have been through in recent months. And these 1505 01:26:34,320 --> 01:26:38,200 Speaker 1: protests again are just another example of this liberal socialist 1506 01:26:38,280 --> 01:26:42,040 Speaker 1: ideology that gives freedom. Hey, Grace, let me sum it 1507 01:26:42,120 --> 01:26:46,439 Speaker 1: up for you. Okay, it is utter hypocrisy. You heard nothing, 1508 01:26:46,840 --> 01:26:51,920 Speaker 1: not a word, not a peep out of Democrats about 1509 01:26:52,120 --> 01:26:56,000 Speaker 1: no social distancing, not wearing masks or in the protest, 1510 01:26:56,400 --> 01:27:00,400 Speaker 1: and they wore peaceful protesters. But also there were rioters, 1511 01:27:00,439 --> 01:27:04,000 Speaker 1: there were looters, there were people that were arsonists, there 1512 01:27:04,000 --> 01:27:07,280 Speaker 1: were people attacking the police, assaulting the police, not a word. 1513 01:27:07,600 --> 01:27:09,680 Speaker 1: Donald Trump, all of a sudden, he's going to have 1514 01:27:09,680 --> 01:27:14,520 Speaker 1: a rally. He's gonna do temperature checks, he's gonna have sanitizers, 1515 01:27:14,560 --> 01:27:17,160 Speaker 1: he's gonna give everyone's gonna have to wear a mask. 1516 01:27:17,240 --> 01:27:21,519 Speaker 1: It's all gonna be happening the way the protesters didn't. Now. 1517 01:27:21,600 --> 01:27:23,639 Speaker 1: The only reason they're bringing this up is an issue 1518 01:27:23,720 --> 01:27:26,840 Speaker 1: is simple because it's Donald Trump, and maybe he just 1519 01:27:26,920 --> 01:27:29,360 Speaker 1: needs to say, well, it's not it's no longer a 1520 01:27:29,439 --> 01:27:31,960 Speaker 1: rally but a protest. But in one hundred and thirty 1521 01:27:31,960 --> 01:27:34,880 Speaker 1: eight days, let not your heart be trouble, Grace, because 1522 01:27:34,960 --> 01:27:39,759 Speaker 1: you have the ability to decide. You and your fellow 1523 01:27:39,800 --> 01:27:43,200 Speaker 1: Americans will be the ultimate jury. You get to decide. 1524 01:27:43,280 --> 01:27:46,760 Speaker 1: You know. I'm I am. I am now about to 1525 01:27:46,800 --> 01:27:50,200 Speaker 1: embark in early August on a book tour about Live 1526 01:27:50,240 --> 01:27:54,479 Speaker 1: Free or Die. I go through the founding of this country, 1527 01:27:55,200 --> 01:27:58,519 Speaker 1: the rise of radicalism in this country. I have a 1528 01:27:58,600 --> 01:28:02,920 Speaker 1: chapter on how saying the Democrats twenty twenty agenda is 1529 01:28:03,640 --> 01:28:06,719 Speaker 1: I give a case in point that this has all 1530 01:28:06,800 --> 01:28:11,120 Speaker 1: been tried and failed before socialism and their history of failure. 1531 01:28:11,400 --> 01:28:15,000 Speaker 1: I go through their lies and conspiracy theories and what 1532 01:28:15,080 --> 01:28:18,240 Speaker 1: they've dragged this country through with their Russia collusion hoax. 1533 01:28:18,720 --> 01:28:23,960 Speaker 1: I go through their their attempt to undo a presidency 1534 01:28:24,640 --> 01:28:27,439 Speaker 1: and you know, because they didn't like the results with 1535 01:28:27,479 --> 01:28:31,120 Speaker 1: this phony impeachment. I go through their allies and the 1536 01:28:31,320 --> 01:28:35,720 Speaker 1: medium mob, the hate Trump medium mob, and their assault 1537 01:28:35,840 --> 01:28:39,559 Speaker 1: on conservatism and freedoms in this country, and then of 1538 01:28:39,600 --> 01:28:43,040 Speaker 1: course the president's success. Why because in a one hundred 1539 01:28:43,040 --> 01:28:47,439 Speaker 1: and thirty eight days you we the people, this is 1540 01:28:47,479 --> 01:28:53,200 Speaker 1: a monumental choice. This is a crucial pivotal moment for 1541 01:28:53,240 --> 01:28:56,760 Speaker 1: the country, and I don't this is not hyperbole. I 1542 01:28:57,000 --> 01:29:02,439 Speaker 1: shudder to think. I think America will be unrecognizable if 1543 01:29:02,479 --> 01:29:06,040 Speaker 1: in fact they are successful.
