We can look at the betting markets, and 42 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 12: I think that this part of what's going on is 43 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 12: that a lot of folks are saying, you know what, 44 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 12: He's not going to release anymore files. The Trump administration 45 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 12: is not going to release any more files. Get this 46 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 12: Trump releasing more Epstein files in twenty twenty five. According 47 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 12: to the betting markets, you go two months ago with 48 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:16,639 Speaker 12: forty percent, you go a month ago with thirty nine percent. 49 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:21,399 Speaker 12: Now it is just twenty one percent. So the magabase 50 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,239 Speaker 12: is hoping, is hoping that there'll be more files to 51 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 12: be released, but at this particular point, neither they Neither 52 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,000 Speaker 12: they nor the betting markets in fact believe there'll be 53 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 12: any more files to be released, and that, of course 54 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:34,240 Speaker 12: is a problem for Donald Trump based upon what we've 55 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 12: seen from the MAGA base over the last twenty four, 56 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:39,240 Speaker 12: forty eight and seventy two hours. 57 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 13: But what happened today, which is the Dariendustree has now 58 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 13: made a commitment to get rid of all dies, with 59 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:49,920 Speaker 13: some by the end of twenty twenty six, and some 60 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,520 Speaker 13: of them are already taking action, some of them already 61 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 13: gotten rid of the size we now have with this contribution. 62 00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 14: With his commitment, we. 63 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 13: Now have about forty percent of the food into that's 64 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:04,080 Speaker 13: already made that commitment, and thirty five percent of the 65 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 13: food industry was already had already gotten ready to die. 66 00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:11,960 Speaker 11: There needs to be more transparency on this, and I 67 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 11: think that that will happen. I mean, look, I don't 68 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 11: know what truly exists there, but I know that this 69 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 11: is something that's important to the President as well. He 70 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:24,239 Speaker 11: doesn't want transparency on all these fronts, everything we're talking about, 71 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 11: because it's frustrated him as well. 72 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:28,119 Speaker 4: He's going to want to set things right as well. 73 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 11: So I believe that there will probably be more coming 74 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 11: on this and I believe anything that they are able 75 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 11: to release that doesn't you know, damage any witnesses or 76 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 11: anyone under age or anything like that. I believe they'll 77 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 11: probably try to get out suitor rather than later, because 78 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 11: they hear it and they understand it. 79 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 4: So hopefully we see. 80 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 11: That happen soon in the later and that I guess 81 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 11: that would be my advice. But to everybody out there 82 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 11: who's all worked up about it, there's no great block 83 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 11: to keep this information away that I'm aware of. I 84 00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 11: do just believe that maybe it's been slow for reasons 85 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 11: that hopefully we understand. 86 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 15: Downline, these students every day. 87 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: Are on the front lines. 88 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 15: Being spared, being slandered, being canceled, being kicked out of classes, 89 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,720 Speaker 15: kicked out of matrinities, kicked out of sororities.

There's something profout happening 97 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:43,919 Speaker 15: in this stuffy There's something that is deemed that is 98 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 15: larger than what the media is covering.

I'm gonna trust my friends 178 00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 15: of the government to do what needs to be done. 179 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 15: I've said plenty this weekend, and the ball is in 180 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 15: their hands. So if you guys want to see my 181 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 15: commentary on it, that's fine. We have escalatory action being 182 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 15: taken in Ukraine and Russia, we have tons of announcements 183 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 15: happening when it comes to NATO. But let me say 184 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:17,000 Speaker 15: this again. You know my opinion about Epstein, the messaging fumble. 185 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,200 Speaker 15: I would love to see this again. No one covered 186 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,600 Speaker 15: the second part of the statement. No one covered it. 187 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,440 Speaker 15: This thing has like ten million views on social media 188 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,440 Speaker 15: and unfortunately too many people on our side fell for 189 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,080 Speaker 15: this garbage and I get it heightened. And by the way, 190 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:33,720 Speaker 15: part of this is I'm gonna have some compassion. This 191 00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 15: is a very hot moment, very hot. And let me 192 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 15: be clear, I'm not trusting the government. I'm trusting individuals 193 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 15: that you too also trust. You guys are all fans 194 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:48,720 Speaker 15: of Dan Bongino and Cash Ptel. We are trusting that 195 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,840 Speaker 15: they heard you, they heard me, and they are working. 196 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 1: To fix this. 197 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 15: Let me finish this, but let me say this again. 198 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 15: I would love to see the gooj move to unseal 199 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:02,720 Speaker 15: the grand jury testimony. We're gonna talk about that with 200 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,200 Speaker 15: a guest later the show. I think this would be 201 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 15: a big win and I would love to see that. 202 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 15: I'm gonna trust my friends, Cash Buttel, Dan Bongino, my 203 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:12,719 Speaker 15: friend Pam Bondi, all these guys. I'm gonna trust them 204 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 15: to solve it. Ball is in their court. I think 205 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:17,559 Speaker 15: there was let's say, a lot of speeches that were 206 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:18,720 Speaker 15: directed towards this topic. 207 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 1: That's it. And by the way, today we're gonna. 208 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:28,439 Speaker 15: Cover it for nearly a full hour, but the media 209 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 15: went out of its way. Let's just put three twenty 210 00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:34,440 Speaker 15: three up there on screen again. All of these articles, 211 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:36,719 Speaker 15: so they won't cover the essence or the story of 212 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 15: the Epstein story, but they'll cover the idea that somehow 213 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 15: Charlie Kirk is moving on. Never was that ever said 214 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,640 Speaker 15: A no, is that the truth? And guys, they hurt us, 215 00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:53,240 Speaker 15: trust me, scudent action some it was near complete messaging saturation. 216 00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 15: And so looking back, should I have said those five 217 00:10:57,240 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 15: words in the sequence? I said, here's what I should 218 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 15: have said and what I was saying. And guess what 219 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:05,560 Speaker 15: you say, thousands of words on a talk radio program, 220 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:07,199 Speaker 15: that all of them is as precise. 221 00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 1: You should have said. 222 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:10,320 Speaker 15: So this is what I was saying. Ball is in 223 00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 15: your court. Guys, you are my friends. We got your 224 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:15,720 Speaker 15: attention overwhelmingly. 225 00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 18: Fix it. 226 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:19,080 Speaker 1: That is what I was saying. 227 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 15: And this was a mockingbird media hit from our guests, 228 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 15: from a lot of people chose to bring it up 229 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 15: all over the weekend, and that's fine, and to be clear, 230 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:36,680 Speaker 15: we think they can fix it. So what I want 231 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 15: to make an addendum to what was said yesterday is 232 00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,199 Speaker 15: we're going to keep on talking about it. When I said, 233 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:45,680 Speaker 15: for the time being, I was talking yesterday, I was 234 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 15: telling the audience, guys, I got a whole deck of 235 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 15: stories I gotta cover here. You see, they want to 236 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:54,720 Speaker 15: cover MAGA in disarray, and there is so much going 237 00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 15: on right now. So excuse me while I have an 238 00:11:57,400 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 15: obligation to you in this program to talk about a 239 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 15: rising kinetic conflict between Russia and Ukraine, to talk about 240 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 15: ICE agents being fired upon, to be talking about the 241 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 15: major issues with Mam Donni. We have a Minneapolis mom 242 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 15: Donnie rising up, So excuse me while I'm going to 243 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 15: use part of my program to talk about the other 244 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 15: issues and say, hey, possession was in the grassroots this weekend, 245 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 15: and now the possession arrow is in the hands of 246 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:28,440 Speaker 15: some of who we all call these people friends. The 247 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 15: balls in Cashu's court, the balls in Dan's court, the 248 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:34,199 Speaker 15: ball is in Pam's court. And I have over the 249 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,240 Speaker 15: years known to trust these people to be able to 250 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 15: fix it, you see. But what's so disappointing, at disappointing 251 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 15: to an extent I get it, is that the magabase 252 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 15: is so fired up about this. And that's why I 253 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:52,200 Speaker 15: didn't take this a lot of this seriously. Is that 254 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 15: you know people were incoming, Charlie, Why are you moving 255 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 15: on where it is no one's sane no one is saying. 256 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 15: But people are so fired up that if there's even 257 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 15: a semblance that this is not going to be prioritized, 258 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,480 Speaker 15: people get upset. And of course I don't trust the 259 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:12,080 Speaker 15: deep state. I trust people that I have known for years. 260 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 15: And what do I trust them to do. I trust 261 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 15: them that they hurt us because I know that they 262 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:20,959 Speaker 15: hurt us. I know that the message of the student 263 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 15: action SEMIT was heard around the world very clearly. And 264 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:28,199 Speaker 15: if there's one thing I've learned from you guys in 265 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:31,520 Speaker 15: the grassroots, in this audience, you are not letting this 266 00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 15: story go I know that. And number once that I 267 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 15: tell you guys to stop talking about it. This is 268 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:41,199 Speaker 15: what's so maddening about the media coverage. They're so dishonest. 269 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:45,200 Speaker 15: MSNBC Charlie Kirk tells audience to stop talking about When 270 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,440 Speaker 15: did I ever tell you guys to stop focusing on it? 271 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 15: When did I ever tell you to keep the pressure off? 272 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 1: Never? 273 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,120 Speaker 15: So I hope this is a learning lesson for a 274 00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:58,319 Speaker 15: lot of people that might have gotten a little fired 275 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:01,480 Speaker 15: up about this. The media lie to you, and you 276 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:04,439 Speaker 15: should look at exactly what people are saying, and also, guys, 277 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 15: look at what was done in a couple of days prior, 278 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 15: if I would have said that and there was no 279 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:13,080 Speaker 15: student Action Summit prior. Okay, I think like a medium 280 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:16,880 Speaker 15: level of intensity would have been justified. But after hosting 281 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 15: the radio program for two days and literally over twenty 282 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 15: hours of talking, I did twenty hours of talking, half 283 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 15: of which went on Epstein this last weekend. So excuse 284 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 15: me when I say, Hey, I want to talk about 285 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 15: rising home prices, and we're going to get to this 286 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 15: story continually throughout the week hence for the time being. 287 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:38,480 Speaker 15: And so with that, and all of a sudden, people, 288 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:40,640 Speaker 15: after all that we've been through and all the trust 289 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 15: that we've earned, people think I'm just dropping the story. 290 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:46,640 Speaker 1: It makes no sense. And for those of you that 291 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 1: saw through that crap, thank you. We appreciate it. 292 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 15: But we're not going anywhere, and we're definitely not losing 293 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 15: focus on this story.

How about this progressing next topic? And 357 00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 15: we're going to have a whole second hour on this. 358 00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 1: And I get it, I do. 359 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:16,840 Speaker 15: I get it because people are really fired up about this, 360 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:23,639 Speaker 15: and we here on this program and many of us 361 00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 15: kind of in the influencer podcast space. You guys are 362 00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:30,399 Speaker 15: the closest touch point you guys have to the administration, 363 00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 15: and so we become kind of a let's just say 364 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:42,199 Speaker 15: a vector and I take that so seriously believe me. 365 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:45,920 Speaker 15: So when people were emailing me firing up, fired up, 366 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 15: it didn't bother me that much. It bothered me when 367 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 15: people said I was, you know, moving on, or that 368 00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 15: I wasn't going to talk about the story. 369 00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:54,640 Speaker 1: That was annoying. 370 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:59,040 Speaker 15: I said, guys, come on, look at what I actually said. 371 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:02,600 Speaker 15: Someone says, Lynn says, so outrageous. I listened to you 372 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:04,960 Speaker 15: yesterday and all weekend. It's just sick that the media 373 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:07,520 Speaker 15: spinners twisted what you said. No one who listened all 374 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 15: to all the Summit and the Monday Show could have 375 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:12,240 Speaker 15: believed that you were saying that anyone told you that 376 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 15: we should shut up about this. Thanks for reiterating today. 377 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:16,639 Speaker 15: I'm sorry that these sick types are so bent on 378 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:19,119 Speaker 15: dividing and conquering. God is on our side. God bless you, Charlie, 379 00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:21,679 Speaker 15: your family and your staff. Lynn, you're a great patriot. 380 00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:22,119 Speaker 1: Thank you. 381 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 15: It's a great, great email. And I do want to 382 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 15: say though, that it is an honor and a responsibility. 383 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:37,439 Speaker 15: And because a lot of people are fired up about this, 384 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 15: it's not breaking news. I've said that a while. People 385 00:19:40,320 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 15: are really animated about this because it involves children getting raped, 386 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:48,280 Speaker 15: it involves a sex trafficking ring. It involves some of 387 00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:50,919 Speaker 15: the wealthiest, most powerful people out there. It very well 388 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 15: might involve our into community, which we're going to talk 389 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:57,399 Speaker 15: about Mike Bens with Mike Ben's and so the bas 390 00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:01,560 Speaker 15: is really really animated about this. And you guys can't 391 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:05,080 Speaker 15: email Donald Trump directly, but you can email me directly. 392 00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:07,520 Speaker 1: And so I see it and I get it. 393 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:11,000 Speaker 15: So we kind of become a gathering point for the 394 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:17,959 Speaker 15: excitement and the positivity, but also the angst and the anger, 395 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:21,959 Speaker 15: and so over the last twenty four hours, we've kind 396 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:26,040 Speaker 15: of just been a just a little bit of a 397 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 15: dartboard for a lot of people that wanted to blow 398 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 15: off some steam. And by the way, I know I 399 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:36,719 Speaker 15: have no problem with people blowing off steam. Blowing off 400 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:40,480 Speaker 15: steam is a big it is an important part of life. 401 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,920 Speaker 15: Everyone blows off steam differently. Sometimes you just write a 402 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 15: letter and you don't send it. You go for a walk. 403 00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:49,959 Speaker 15: Could be very therapeutic. But now it's about fixing it. 404 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:56,480 Speaker 15: And there was some breaking news yesterday. And why else 405 00:20:56,520 --> 00:21:02,919 Speaker 15: did I say that? Maybe because I've been talking and 406 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,440 Speaker 15: I think that things are going to get fixed. Let's 407 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:09,600 Speaker 15: play the Laura Trump Benny clip put all that in context, 408 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:11,360 Speaker 15: let's play Laura Trump on The Benny Show. 409 00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:18,360 Speaker 1: Play this play the first one. 410 00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:22,439 Speaker 11: There needs to be more transparency on this, and I 411 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:25,919 Speaker 11: think that that will happen. I mean, look, I don't 412 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 11: know what truly exists there, but I know that this 413 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:31,159 Speaker 11: is something that's important to the president as well. He 414 00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:34,359 Speaker 11: doesn't want transparency on all these fronts, everything we're talking 415 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 11: about because it's frustrated him as well. He's gonna want 416 00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:39,879 Speaker 11: to set things right as well. So I believe that 417 00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 11: there will probably be more coming on this, and I 418 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:46,160 Speaker 11: believe anything that they are able to release that doesn't, 419 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:49,479 Speaker 11: you know, damage any witnesses or anyone underage or anything 420 00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:52,360 Speaker 11: like that. I believe they'll probably try to get out 421 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:54,399 Speaker 11: suitor rather than later, because they hear it and they 422 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 11: understand it. So hopefully we see that happen soon in 423 00:21:57,840 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 11: the later and that I guess that would be my 424 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 11: advice to everybody out there who's all worked up about it. 425 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:04,960 Speaker 4: There's no great plot to keep. 426 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:07,879 Speaker 11: This information away then I'm aware of. I do just 427 00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:11,760 Speaker 11: believe that maybe it's been slow roll for reasons that 428 00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 11: hopefully we understand. 429 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 17: Down the line. 430 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 15: Laura Trump says that President Trump hears you and that 431 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:24,560 Speaker 15: she thinks that information will be released soon. The grassroots 432 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 15: pressure on this is enormous and they are hearing your voice. 433 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:32,120 Speaker 15: Trust me, all throughout the digital world. It is enormous 434 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 15: and I would love to start to see some material 435 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:38,400 Speaker 15: progress on this. And again, I know that people knock 436 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:42,600 Speaker 15: me for saying this, but when you have friends, don't 437 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:47,720 Speaker 15: you give your friends some opportunity to be able to 438 00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 15: get it right, to fix it, especially once that memo 439 00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:56,199 Speaker 15: is delivered.

But don't forget, 448 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,359 Speaker 10: while they're moving mountains for the good of the nation, 449 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 10: they can't also take your personal savings into account.

Sean Parnell, Assistant to 516 00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:18,360 Speaker 15: SECT def for Public Affairs. 517 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 19: Yeah, well, first of all, thanks for having me, Charlie. 518 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 19: It's great to be back on the show after a 519 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:28,679 Speaker 19: little hiatus. You know, well, look, the Russia Ukraine conflict 520 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:32,160 Speaker 19: has been a central focus for President Trump since he 521 00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 19: was on the campaign trail. If you remember back to 522 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:37,120 Speaker 19: the very first interview where he's had a town hall 523 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:39,840 Speaker 19: with Caitlin Collins and she asked him the ambush question 524 00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:41,680 Speaker 19: of like, do you want Putin to win this war? 525 00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 19: President Trump responded with something very simple yet also very profound, 526 00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:50,320 Speaker 19: and he said, I want people to stop dying. What 527 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:52,879 Speaker 19: we've seen over the last year hundreds of thousands of 528 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 19: people dead in this conflict, and a central focus of 529 00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:01,679 Speaker 19: President Trump's second administration is bringing this war to a 530 00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:05,680 Speaker 19: peaceful resolution. You heard President Trump from the OVA Office yesterday. 531 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:10,080 Speaker 19: Clearly he's frustrated with Vladimir Putin stringing along negotiations. He 532 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:13,200 Speaker 19: doesn't seem like he's being serious. And so what we've done, 533 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 19: at the Department of Defense and at the President's direction 534 00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 19: and the sec Def's direction, is provide a framework for 535 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:21,800 Speaker 19: munitions that we can send to Ukraine to help them 536 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:25,720 Speaker 19: defend themselves while the President pursues peace between Russia and Ukraine. 537 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:27,360 Speaker 18: And that's all we've done. 538 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 19: And so we're going to continue to do that and 539 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:32,639 Speaker 19: give the President robust options as he pursues the peace. 540 00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 15: So the skepticism from the audience, I would say on 541 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:41,160 Speaker 15: the Russia Ukraine situation is that they do not want 542 00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:45,480 Speaker 15: to see America embroiled into another quagmire. I actually don't 543 00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 15: share that concern. I trust the President. I trust you guys. 544 00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 15: I think he demonstrated with Iran that he has incredible 545 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:54,160 Speaker 15: wisdom and prudence to. 546 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 1: Be able to navigate this. 547 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 15: So I don't share that concern. I do potentially see, 548 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 15: you know, in war, you have to enter things with 549 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:04,200 Speaker 15: humility because things can get out of control and all 550 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 15: of a sudden, you know, NATO Article five, could I 551 00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:08,160 Speaker 15: guess get triggered. 552 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 1: Also, the audience does not like the idea of giving 553 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:13,160 Speaker 1: away money. 554 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:16,280 Speaker 15: So is this a purchase agreement? Can you explain that 555 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:19,040 Speaker 15: this is a purchase, not a giveaway. 556 00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 18: Yeah, it's such a great point. 557 00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 19: So yeah, I mean, basically, these are weapons made in America, 558 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:31,040 Speaker 19: purchased by NATO. So that's that's just what this framework 559 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:33,800 Speaker 19: provides for. And to your point about the base and 560 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:37,360 Speaker 19: the audience, I completely understand that the skepticism in the 561 00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:41,200 Speaker 19: fear as someone who fought in Afghanistan for sixteen straight 562 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:44,440 Speaker 19: months and to watch Afghanistan surrendered in twenty twenty one 563 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 19: was horrific. 564 00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 18: It hurts my soul just to think about it. 565 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:50,920 Speaker 19: And you look at American foreign policy in the twentieth 566 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 19: and twenty first century, whether it's toppling autocrats from Egypt 567 00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:57,840 Speaker 19: to Libya, to Syria to Iraq and Afghanistan, none of 568 00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 19: that has paid off well for America. And especially when 569 00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:04,920 Speaker 19: you look at a wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and 570 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:06,360 Speaker 19: what do we have? You ask yourself, what do we 571 00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:08,680 Speaker 19: have to show for those wars? After being embroiled for 572 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 19: over a decade in Afghanistan almost twenty years, we have 573 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:15,200 Speaker 19: thousands of Americans dead, tens of thousands of Americans suffering 574 00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:17,640 Speaker 19: from the invisible wounds of war, and hundreds of thousands 575 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:21,080 Speaker 19: of families who are affected by those conflict, and again, 576 00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:23,720 Speaker 19: what do we have to show for it? So the 577 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:26,920 Speaker 19: skepticism and the fear from the audience is certainly warranted. 578 00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:29,120 Speaker 19: But I think you have to think back to what 579 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:31,280 Speaker 19: President Trump has said and done in his first term. 580 00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:34,240 Speaker 19: He was a president of peace with the abrahams Abraham 581 00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:36,840 Speaker 19: Accords in his first term, and he's pursuing a path 582 00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:38,880 Speaker 19: of peace here in a second. Look at the Whoty 583 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 19: operation in the Red Sea, you had a clearly defined 584 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 19: mission in an end state. Look at the Iran operation 585 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:48,760 Speaker 19: with Operation Midnight Hammer, you had a clearly defined mission 586 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:52,440 Speaker 19: in an end state. So for President Trump, peace is 587 00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:55,000 Speaker 19: his focus. But in order to pursue peace and to 588 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:57,960 Speaker 19: give yourself the strongest hand available at the negotiating table, 589 00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:00,960 Speaker 19: you have to be strong. And that is exactly what 590 00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:03,840 Speaker 19: President Trump is signaling in this Russia Ukraine fight, so 591 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:06,320 Speaker 19: that he can set the conditions for peace moving forward. 592 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:09,239 Speaker 19: And by the way, I fully trust the President. He 593 00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:12,600 Speaker 19: has never once violated the trust of this country or 594 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:16,040 Speaker 19: the American people. That's why people love this president. When 595 00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:18,960 Speaker 19: he says something on the campaign trail, he makes good 596 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 19: on the promise. 597 00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:22,040 Speaker 18: When he's in office. And by the way, that's something 598 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:22,560 Speaker 18: that has been. 599 00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 19: Very different from Republicans and democratic administrations in the past. 600 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 18: When the president says something, he actually does it and 601 00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 18: keeps his promise. 602 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 15: That is correct and that is true. So Sean NATO 603 00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:35,360 Speaker 15: is purchasing the money. And is it fair to say 604 00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:38,320 Speaker 15: that this is going to be a europe European led 605 00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:41,200 Speaker 15: purchase because obviously we give a lot of money to NATO. 606 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:43,760 Speaker 15: I know that Europe is giving more and more money 607 00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:46,560 Speaker 15: to NATO, So is it NATO buying the weapons? Will 608 00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:49,640 Speaker 15: be mainly Germany, So kind of walk us through just 609 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:51,680 Speaker 15: a little bit. There might be classified stuff here, but 610 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:54,160 Speaker 15: I bet most of this is public kind of the 611 00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:55,440 Speaker 15: scope of the deal. 612 00:31:56,960 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 19: So first of all, we should give credit work credits 613 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:03,200 Speaker 19: due to the Secretary of Defense who has made it 614 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:07,200 Speaker 19: a focus of his tenure as sect DEF to ask 615 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:11,080 Speaker 19: the Europeans to do more. It ask the Europeans to 616 00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:13,480 Speaker 19: step up and spend more on defense between three point 617 00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:16,240 Speaker 19: five and now five percent. I would also add that 618 00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:20,880 Speaker 19: four months ago people were saying that it was not possible. 619 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,080 Speaker 19: People were throwing shade at the sec Def and saying 620 00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:24,800 Speaker 19: that he couldn't get it done. But he did in 621 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 19: conjunction with the president. So we have our European allies 622 00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 19: right now committed to spend more on their defense and 623 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:34,720 Speaker 19: part of that deal is buying American weapons from America 624 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:37,880 Speaker 19: manufactured in America as part of this framework to help 625 00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:41,560 Speaker 19: support Ukraine while he pursues peace. And as I understand it, 626 00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:45,640 Speaker 19: like this deal is very much it's very much in 627 00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:49,680 Speaker 19: the early stages, right, but you have different NATO countries 628 00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:55,720 Speaker 19: wholeheartedly on board with committing with giving their resources, financial 629 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:59,520 Speaker 19: resources through yucom to NATO, which will then in turn 630 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:02,400 Speaker 19: be weapons into Ukraine and money's back to the US treasury. 631 00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:05,800 Speaker 19: So again, this is a good deal for the country. 632 00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:08,960 Speaker 19: It's in keeping with the sectf's national defense strategy of 633 00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 19: asking for our allies to do more while we can 634 00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 19: shift our focus to the Endo Pacific where we think 635 00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:14,400 Speaker 19: it belongs. 636 00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:17,200 Speaker 15: I love that because it's got it's got to be 637 00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:20,280 Speaker 15: all eyes on the rise of Chinese, the Chinese Communist 638 00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:24,680 Speaker 15: Party about their potential you know, military incursion with Taiwan. 639 00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:27,320 Speaker 19: Yeah, and Charlie, it's the most thing, You're right, it's 640 00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:30,080 Speaker 19: the most pragmatic thing in the world. Like this is 641 00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:34,240 Speaker 19: America first, does not mean America alone, and if the 642 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:36,840 Speaker 19: threats that we face in this world evolve, and they 643 00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:40,000 Speaker 19: evolve quickly, and the threats we think, you know, a 644 00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:43,280 Speaker 19: near peer adversary in China represents a what is a 645 00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:46,040 Speaker 19: very real threat to America and it's interests. 646 00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:47,040 Speaker 18: China has said from. 647 00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,680 Speaker 19: The very they've made it part of their of their 648 00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:52,720 Speaker 19: strategic calculation to be the world's loan superpower. 649 00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:54,640 Speaker 18: And we want to do everything that we can. 650 00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:58,200 Speaker 19: To stop that and keep America the number one loan 651 00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 19: superpower in the world because Erica buy and large is 652 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:03,760 Speaker 19: a force for good. In order to do that, we 653 00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:06,200 Speaker 19: have to ask our allies to do more, ask our 654 00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:09,239 Speaker 19: allies to be good friends and good partners while we 655 00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:12,680 Speaker 19: shift our focus to the end of Pacific, which is 656 00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:14,040 Speaker 19: again where we think it belongs. 657 00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:17,120 Speaker 15: Okay, So Sean, now I want to talk about the 658 00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:18,600 Speaker 15: one big, beautiful Bill. I want to give you an 659 00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:22,840 Speaker 15: opportunity to make the case for the increase of defense spending. Obviously, 660 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:25,040 Speaker 15: we're behind the president when the beautiful Bill was awesome. 661 00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:28,160 Speaker 15: But one thing, just like little whispers and murmurs, especially 662 00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:30,640 Speaker 15: amongst some of the younger demo, is they say, do 663 00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:32,920 Speaker 15: we really need to now go to a trillion dollars 664 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:35,600 Speaker 15: on the defense budget. Can you talk about where this 665 00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:38,879 Speaker 15: money will be spent, spent, where it is going, and 666 00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:43,000 Speaker 15: how you believe this is necessary to fortify national security. 667 00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:46,400 Speaker 19: Well, I mean, look the things that we're doing in 668 00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:49,360 Speaker 19: the Department of Defense right now, and I'll say, in 669 00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:51,920 Speaker 19: the first six months of the sectf's tenure here at 670 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 19: the Pentagon, he's done more than most secretaries have done 671 00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:57,480 Speaker 19: in the last four years. The changes that he is 672 00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:00,799 Speaker 19: making here in the Pentagon will be generational. I mean, 673 00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:03,480 Speaker 19: he's making the Pentagon. I think our country in the 674 00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:05,560 Speaker 19: world a better place by some of these changes and 675 00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:09,000 Speaker 19: removing red tape. So when you look at our overall budget, 676 00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:13,200 Speaker 19: we need to have a budget that supports that unbelievable change, right, 677 00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:16,040 Speaker 19: And so we're investing in historic things like F forty seven, 678 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:19,080 Speaker 19: a six generation fighter. We're investing in things that have 679 00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:22,640 Speaker 19: never been done before, with multiple Manhattan projects in Golden 680 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:26,440 Speaker 19: Dome for America to protect our homeland. We're talking about 681 00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:29,719 Speaker 19: we're talking about reinvesting in things or investing in things 682 00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:32,480 Speaker 19: that that we've never invested in before, Charlie. And so 683 00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:35,440 Speaker 19: we've got to give the sect F the resources that 684 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:38,719 Speaker 19: he needs to accomplish the President's vision, and that's part 685 00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:40,480 Speaker 19: of the reason why we have the resources that we 686 00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:41,560 Speaker 19: do in this budget. 687 00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:47,080 Speaker 15: In closing, here Sean talk about the increase of military recruitment. 688 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:49,960 Speaker 15: That is it's one of my favorite things. I told 689 00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:52,359 Speaker 15: Pete this privately. In publicly, I said, Pete, you guys 690 00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:55,160 Speaker 15: should be talking about this every day, because that right there, 691 00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:57,759 Speaker 15: it's better than you know, some rest museen poll or 692 00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:01,120 Speaker 15: some sort of you know, morning console hole. The President 693 00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:03,480 Speaker 15: has said this to me before as well. Which is 694 00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:08,719 Speaker 15: the best indicator of national morale, strengthening of the ability 695 00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 15: to see whether or not people believe in America and 696 00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:16,320 Speaker 15: they want to serve the country is military recruitment. Remember 697 00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:19,839 Speaker 15: after nine to eleven, military recruitment went straight up, right. 698 00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:22,960 Speaker 15: We've seen this at different times in American history, and 699 00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:27,920 Speaker 15: also in the midst of Vietnam, voluntary military recruitment went down. 700 00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:31,359 Speaker 15: Voluntary military recruitment started to go down towards. 701 00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:32,239 Speaker 1: The end of the Iraq War. 702 00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:35,760 Speaker 15: It also was at record low levels per percentage under 703 00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:41,560 Speaker 15: Joe Biden, especially after the f guest Afghanistan withdrawal. Where 704 00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:46,400 Speaker 15: is it now and brag on the success of the 705 00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:50,280 Speaker 15: increase of the military recruitment. 706 00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:53,480 Speaker 19: So right now I'm co shaaring the Recruiting Task Force 707 00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:55,200 Speaker 19: here at the Department of Defense force wide. So we 708 00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:57,879 Speaker 19: could probably do another interview deep dive on all of this, 709 00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:00,640 Speaker 19: because it's an interesting yet complicated topic. 710 00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:02,960 Speaker 18: But you are absolutely. 711 00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:05,920 Speaker 19: Right the proof is in the pudding, and as it 712 00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:09,960 Speaker 19: pertains to recruiting, leadership matters. So take our let's let's 713 00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:13,480 Speaker 19: go back a year where President Trump was almost assassinated 714 00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:15,320 Speaker 19: on that stage in Butler under fire. 715 00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:17,520 Speaker 18: You don't know, even regard even people that have all 716 00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:19,120 Speaker 18: the training in the world don't know how they're going 717 00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:20,440 Speaker 18: to react under under fire. 718 00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:24,000 Speaker 19: President Trump was almost assassinated on that day, and within 719 00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:28,200 Speaker 19: seconds of being shot, the President stood up, pumped his fist, 720 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:30,600 Speaker 19: looked out to the crowd, looked out to our country, 721 00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:33,960 Speaker 19: looked out to the world, and said fight, fight, fight defiantly. 722 00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:37,680 Speaker 19: So you juxtaposed that image with the image of Biden, 723 00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 19: his predecessor before him, who is an animated corpse, had 724 00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:43,040 Speaker 19: to be dipped in the Lazarus pit every day. Every 725 00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:46,360 Speaker 19: day it was less and less affected, hardly an inspiring figure. 726 00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:47,320 Speaker 18: And by the way, a week. 727 00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:51,279 Speaker 19: After President Trump was almost assassinated. Biden resigns the presidency 728 00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:53,400 Speaker 19: in a pdf on social media, which is almost the 729 00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:55,839 Speaker 19: equivalent of writing, I quit on a napkin at work 730 00:37:55,880 --> 00:38:00,200 Speaker 19: before you leave. I mean, Biden embodied weakness. President to 731 00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:04,640 Speaker 19: Trump embodies strength likewise, so too does Secretary Heeg Seth. 732 00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:08,479 Speaker 19: And when you embody strength, it inspires people to say, hey, 733 00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:11,200 Speaker 19: I want to serve under that commander in chief. I 734 00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:13,840 Speaker 19: want to serve under this secretary. Defense and that is 735 00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:17,920 Speaker 19: the reason why you're recruiting right now has been historic, 736 00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:19,600 Speaker 19: and I don't think there's gonna. 737 00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:20,279 Speaker 18: Be any end in sight. 738 00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:23,200 Speaker 15: Charlie Sean Parnell, great work, Thank you so much.

I don't see what we're doing in 827 00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:41,600 Speaker 20: terms of advancing the bond of love and monogamy and 828 00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:45,040 Speaker 20: extending that to families families of same sex in any way, 829 00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:47,719 Speaker 20: shape or form, takes away anything from the Church or 830 00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:49,880 Speaker 20: the sanctity of the union that my wife and I have. 831 00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:52,120 Speaker 21: I would just like to ask the mayors of pregnacy 832 00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:54,839 Speaker 21: Catholic do you believe the Bible is the Word of God. 833 00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:56,400 Speaker 20: Yeah, Look, Pastor, I'm not going to get in a 834 00:43:56,440 --> 00:43:58,359 Speaker 20: theological debate with you that that's not. 835 00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:00,840 Speaker 21: A theological debate. That was just a straight question. Do 836 00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:03,319 Speaker 21: you believe the Bible is the authoritative word of God? 837 00:44:04,600 --> 00:44:06,160 Speaker 10: I with respect, I guess I do. 838 00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:06,600 Speaker 14: Now. 839 00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:09,799 Speaker 21: Then the Bible says when God created man, he said, 840 00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:14,480 Speaker 21: one man, one woman, cleave together for life. That's a family. 841 00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:17,720 Speaker 21: Jesus in the New Testament reaffirms that. All the writers 842 00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:19,640 Speaker 21: of the Old and the New Testament affirm it. 843 00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:24,480 Speaker 15: The clip actually keeps on getting better. Let's try to 844 00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:27,080 Speaker 15: get the full one at another time. But here's why 845 00:44:27,160 --> 00:44:30,600 Speaker 15: John MacArthur will go down as a legend in my book. 846 00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:33,839 Speaker 1: It's not his books, it's not. 847 00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:35,920 Speaker 15: All his commentary, it's not even as sermons. And that 848 00:44:36,120 --> 00:44:38,879 Speaker 15: is exceptional. I will listen to it. 849 00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:40,200 Speaker 1: It's because. 850 00:44:41,440 --> 00:44:46,719 Speaker 15: When it mattered most, when churches were closing, and they 851 00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:51,080 Speaker 15: were taking Easter and Pentecost, and the entire Californian government 852 00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:55,520 Speaker 15: was coming down on churches, and most bent to knee 853 00:44:55,760 --> 00:44:58,279 Speaker 15: and they refused to open. Of course, my pastor and 854 00:44:58,280 --> 00:45:02,000 Speaker 15: dear friend Rob McCoy did not John MacArthur, and all 855 00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:05,520 Speaker 15: eyes of the nation were on John MacArthur. All pastors 856 00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:07,520 Speaker 15: were watching his see what is John MacArthur going to do? 857 00:45:07,760 --> 00:45:11,080 Speaker 15: And he openly defied the California government. 858 00:45:12,120 --> 00:45:13,719 Speaker 1: He rejected the lockdowns. 859 00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:17,200 Speaker 15: And John MacArthur did something that is one of the 860 00:45:17,239 --> 00:45:23,640 Speaker 15: most difficult, one of the most important parts of a 861 00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:29,440 Speaker 15: Christian walk is he finished well. He never bowed to 862 00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:32,840 Speaker 15: the gods of this age. He never apologized for scripture. 863 00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:36,680 Speaker 15: He was a fighter through and through. And the last 864 00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:42,160 Speaker 15: chapter of John MacArthur's legendary career from fighting homosexual marriage, 865 00:45:42,480 --> 00:45:45,719 Speaker 15: from fighting against the trans stuff which he was incredible. 866 00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:48,200 Speaker 1: The final part of his chapter. 867 00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:52,240 Speaker 15: Was will you resist government tyranny or will you submit 868 00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:53,200 Speaker 15: to the will of God? 869 00:45:55,000 --> 00:46:00,000 Speaker 1: And he crushed it and he aced it tragically. 870 00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:03,279 Speaker 15: So many other Christian pastors, and I will not say 871 00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:07,600 Speaker 15: their name, they're finishing really poorly right now. There's a 872 00:46:07,719 --> 00:46:13,040 Speaker 15: list of guys men that were good, that were strong, 873 00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:17,239 Speaker 15: and they became weak during COVID and woke John MacArthur, 874 00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:24,080 Speaker 15: though fully embodied two Timothy four seven. I have fought 875 00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:27,200 Speaker 15: the good fight. I have finished the race, and I 876 00:46:27,239 --> 00:46:31,720 Speaker 15: have kept the faith. John MacArthur and I have something 877 00:46:31,719 --> 00:46:35,640 Speaker 15: in common. We're both Scots. We don't like being told 878 00:46:35,680 --> 00:46:39,319 Speaker 15: what to do. We're lovers of liberty, lovers of freedom, 879 00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:44,000 Speaker 15: lovers of America. John MacArthur is now in heaven with 880 00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:47,880 Speaker 15: our Lord and we will continue the fight that he started. 881 00:46:48,640 --> 00:46:50,680 Speaker 15: And as you hear those bagpipes, those are for you, 882 00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:54,120 Speaker 15: John MacArthur, because as a fellow scotsmen, we keep on 883 00:46:54,200 --> 00:46:56,200 Speaker 15: fighting for Jesus and fighting for what's right. 884 00:46:56,360 --> 00:46:57,359 Speaker 1: Second, now we're coming up. 885 00:47:17,600 --> 00:47:20,319 Speaker 10: Welcome back to this Real America's Voice news break. I'm 886 00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:23,680 Speaker 10: Terrence Bads. President Trump is set to take the stage 887 00:47:23,680 --> 00:47:26,720 Speaker 10: in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, in about an hour and a half. 888 00:47:26,840 --> 00:47:30,840 Speaker 10: Is the featured speaker at Senator Dave McCormick's inaugural Energy 889 00:47:30,880 --> 00:47:34,080 Speaker 10: and Innovation event. The Summit is Built is bringing together 890 00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:38,200 Speaker 10: the top names and energy and artificial intelligence. McCormick says, 891 00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:42,840 Speaker 10: today's event is about showcasing Pennsylvania's incredible potential to power 892 00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:47,360 Speaker 10: the AI revolution. Real America's Voice correspondent Michelle Backus is 893 00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:50,560 Speaker 10: at Carnegie Mellon University where the event is set to 894 00:47:50,560 --> 00:47:53,480 Speaker 10: get under way. Hearers already underway. President Trumps set to 895 00:47:53,600 --> 00:47:56,040 Speaker 10: arrive shortly. Michelle, Good afternoon to you. 896 00:47:58,120 --> 00:48:01,160 Speaker 22: Hey, good afternoon, Terrance. This is so of breaking news. 897 00:48:01,160 --> 00:48:03,520 Speaker 22: But when we arrived here this morning, we thought that 898 00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:08,040 Speaker 22: it was roughly seventy billion dollars worth of investment. Senator McCornick, 899 00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:12,240 Speaker 22: mcclorwik coming out and announcing it's now actually ninety billion 900 00:48:12,280 --> 00:48:15,440 Speaker 22: dollars worth of investment here in the Keystone State. That 901 00:48:15,520 --> 00:48:17,880 Speaker 22: is breaking records. And this is going to be monumental 902 00:48:18,040 --> 00:48:18,960 Speaker 22: for Pennsylvania. 903 00:48:19,719 --> 00:48:22,480 Speaker 10: And the huge thing is bringing all of these leaders 904 00:48:22,520 --> 00:48:25,640 Speaker 10: together and being able to, as I said, to showcase 905 00:48:25,719 --> 00:48:29,080 Speaker 10: what Pennsylvania has to offer in terms of attracting some 906 00:48:29,160 --> 00:48:29,880 Speaker 10: of these leaders. 907 00:48:31,840 --> 00:48:32,439 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's Terrence. 908 00:48:32,440 --> 00:48:35,360 Speaker 22: We're looking at over sixty major CEOs coming here to 909 00:48:35,400 --> 00:48:37,120 Speaker 22: Pittsburgh today to be part of this sum and of 910 00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:39,720 Speaker 22: course Larry Fink from Blackrock. You also have the CEO 911 00:48:39,719 --> 00:48:43,400 Speaker 22: of ex On Mobile Meta as well Google or Alphabet 912 00:48:43,440 --> 00:48:47,000 Speaker 22: as it's now formerly called, multiple CEOs focusing in on 913 00:48:47,120 --> 00:48:51,280 Speaker 22: Pittsburgh and Pittsburgh let alone, Pennsylvania a great place to invest. 914 00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:55,400 Speaker 22: Think about it, where these second largest person with the 915 00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:58,920 Speaker 22: state here with natural resources behind Texas. We're also third 916 00:48:59,000 --> 00:49:02,800 Speaker 22: in coal mining, have a great infrastructure, tons of land 917 00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:05,240 Speaker 22: in order to build these data centers that are ultimately 918 00:49:05,239 --> 00:49:07,239 Speaker 22: going to fuel the AI revolution. 919 00:49:07,480 --> 00:49:10,080 Speaker 4: And if you think back, we were the steel town. 920 00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:13,720 Speaker 22: We made our economic drivers through steel that obviously subsided 921 00:49:13,719 --> 00:49:16,719 Speaker 22: in the mid nineteen seventies. But now there's a new 922 00:49:16,800 --> 00:49:20,080 Speaker 22: industrial revolution. It's a great opportunity for Pennsylvania to get 923 00:49:20,080 --> 00:49:21,960 Speaker 22: ahead of the curve and be part of it as 924 00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:23,600 Speaker 22: we look into AI in the future. 925 00:49:24,040 --> 00:49:27,120 Speaker 10: Michelle, I'm smiling because you say we it is your hometown, 926 00:49:27,160 --> 00:49:29,879 Speaker 10: and so you're giving your hometown an extra big up here. 927 00:49:30,640 --> 00:49:34,080 Speaker 10: One of the things I find interesting artificial intelligence and 928 00:49:34,360 --> 00:49:36,560 Speaker 10: the tech sector. That's what's like to be going to 929 00:49:36,560 --> 00:49:39,800 Speaker 10: get all the headlines. But this conference is also about energy, 930 00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:42,480 Speaker 10: which is something that President Trump has talked about on 931 00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:45,520 Speaker 10: the campaign trail and even early in his administration, saying 932 00:49:45,680 --> 00:49:49,120 Speaker 10: that he wants to make the United States energy dominant again. 933 00:49:49,280 --> 00:49:51,720 Speaker 10: And so that's part of what I expect he'll probably talk. 934 00:49:51,600 --> 00:49:52,560 Speaker 14: About this afternoon. 935 00:49:54,320 --> 00:49:57,960 Speaker 22: Yeah, Terrence, it's really about America first, economics and bringing 936 00:49:58,120 --> 00:50:01,680 Speaker 22: energy home, bringing economics back into our states rather than 937 00:50:01,719 --> 00:50:04,759 Speaker 22: fueld amount to other countries that ultimately hate US. 938 00:50:04,800 --> 00:50:05,920 Speaker 4: I mean, you're looking. 939 00:50:05,719 --> 00:50:08,479 Speaker 22: At a great position here in Pennsylvania where we. 940 00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:10,480 Speaker 4: Have the abundant natural resources. 941 00:50:10,520 --> 00:50:12,960 Speaker 22: It's time we utilize them here rather than shell out 942 00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:14,440 Speaker 22: money to other countries. 943 00:50:14,520 --> 00:50:16,960 Speaker 4: That's what we're looking at promises made, promises kept. 944 00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:19,719 Speaker 22: This was a big promise, especially for Pennsylvania's on the 945 00:50:19,760 --> 00:50:23,040 Speaker 22: campaign trail when Trump came and visited. Now he's holding 946 00:50:23,080 --> 00:50:26,240 Speaker 22: true to that, especially with this ninety billion dollar investment. 947 00:50:26,280 --> 00:50:28,880 Speaker 22: This is also going to create thousands of jobs and 948 00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:32,520 Speaker 22: again position Pittsburgh as well as Pennsylvania in a great 949 00:50:32,560 --> 00:50:34,840 Speaker 22: place moving forward. So I'm even calling it the potential 950 00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:38,480 Speaker 22: Silicon Valley of the East Coast. Of course, as you mentioned, 951 00:50:38,560 --> 00:50:42,239 Speaker 22: I'm very proud as a Pittsburgh native to see industry 952 00:50:42,320 --> 00:50:46,280 Speaker 22: coming back to this beautiful state and ultimately this city. 953 00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:49,320 Speaker 4: So it's really exciting, especially for all the locals here. 954 00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:52,600 Speaker 10: And these investments that you talked about. It's not just 955 00:50:52,640 --> 00:50:56,560 Speaker 10: domestic investment. I was listening to Senator McCormick earlier today 956 00:50:56,600 --> 00:50:58,920 Speaker 10: and he was saying that there are even some executives 957 00:50:58,920 --> 00:51:01,799 Speaker 10: from the United Arabs on hand, and he's looking for 958 00:51:01,880 --> 00:51:04,080 Speaker 10: potential investment from them as well. So I would imagine 959 00:51:04,120 --> 00:51:06,840 Speaker 10: there are other CEOs and other companies from outside the 960 00:51:06,960 --> 00:51:10,080 Speaker 10: US borders who potentially are looking at Pittsburgh or Pennsylvania 961 00:51:10,080 --> 00:51:10,520 Speaker 10: as a whole. 962 00:51:12,560 --> 00:51:15,240 Speaker 22: Yeah, it's really profound to see as you are seeing 963 00:51:15,239 --> 00:51:17,960 Speaker 22: these foreign companies and these sporgers and CEOs come in 964 00:51:18,040 --> 00:51:21,839 Speaker 22: today and talk about investing in Pittsburgh and in Pennsylvania 965 00:51:21,880 --> 00:51:24,800 Speaker 22: as well. Again, we have the resources in this country. 966 00:51:25,040 --> 00:51:27,360 Speaker 22: It's time to put our foot down and stop exporting 967 00:51:27,400 --> 00:51:29,799 Speaker 22: them to other countries instead of producing here. Again, it 968 00:51:29,840 --> 00:51:32,960 Speaker 22: goes back to America first economics, and it's a campaign 969 00:51:32,960 --> 00:51:36,000 Speaker 22: promise that Trump had talked about all throughout the campaign. 970 00:51:36,320 --> 00:51:37,719 Speaker 4: Now he's holding true to it. 971 00:51:37,760 --> 00:51:40,960 Speaker 22: We're getting economics, We're getting industries back here into the 972 00:51:41,080 --> 00:51:44,080 Speaker 22: United States, and there's really no better place, in my opinion, 973 00:51:44,120 --> 00:51:47,359 Speaker 22: for that to start than Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Many workers who 974 00:51:47,400 --> 00:51:50,680 Speaker 22: are in the steel industry now looking for new jobs. 975 00:51:50,680 --> 00:51:53,640 Speaker 22: And as we continue with this new wave of industrial revolution, 976 00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:56,400 Speaker 22: we're looking at technology, We're looking at AI and you 977 00:51:56,400 --> 00:51:58,680 Speaker 22: also have to think the amount of abundant land we 978 00:51:58,760 --> 00:52:01,680 Speaker 22: have in Pennsylvania need data centers to be able to 979 00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:04,600 Speaker 22: fuel this AI revolution, and that's what we're also looking 980 00:52:04,680 --> 00:52:05,680 Speaker 22: like here in the state. 981 00:52:06,080 --> 00:52:10,520 Speaker 10: Michelle Back is reporting to us from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. 982 00:52:22,760 --> 00:52:25,239 Speaker 15: Okay, everybody, welcome back.

Let's try to try try 988 00:52:41,080 --> 00:52:42,640 Speaker 15: to figure out a path forward of a way that 989 00:52:43,200 --> 00:52:48,480 Speaker 15: this administration might solve what is happening with the Epstein situation. 990 00:52:49,360 --> 00:52:53,080 Speaker 15: Joining us now is Mark Kapudo, reporter for Axios, that 991 00:52:53,200 --> 00:52:56,680 Speaker 15: is Axios dot Com.

Obviously, I 994 00:53:02,840 --> 00:53:04,680 Speaker 15: said a lot of my friends are in the administration, 995 00:53:04,760 --> 00:53:08,640 Speaker 15: but we've really never seen grassroots anger like this. We 996 00:53:08,680 --> 00:53:13,000 Speaker 15: want the administration to succeed. We want to we want 997 00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:15,960 Speaker 15: to see on this program this thing rectified, and we 998 00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:18,560 Speaker 15: want the truth to come out. Mark, what does your 999 00:53:18,560 --> 00:53:21,680 Speaker 15: reporting show? And then please walk us through your excellent piece. 1000 00:53:23,640 --> 00:53:25,719 Speaker 6: I'm not sure how much truth can actually come out. 1001 00:53:25,800 --> 00:53:29,319 Speaker 6: We can discuss that in depth. It's very difficult and 1002 00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:32,480 Speaker 6: complicated to explain legal process. People are expecting a lot 1003 00:53:32,520 --> 00:53:37,320 Speaker 6: more than would be available under any administration. But for now, 1004 00:53:37,719 --> 00:53:40,200 Speaker 6: Donald Trump has basically said he's done with us and 1005 00:53:40,200 --> 00:53:42,960 Speaker 6: he's moving on, and the DOJ memo that got released 1006 00:53:43,520 --> 00:53:46,240 Speaker 6: last Sunday, speaking to such is going. 1007 00:53:46,080 --> 00:53:47,720 Speaker 7: To control now. 1008 00:53:48,400 --> 00:53:51,320 Speaker 6: Obviously the blowback has been so severe and so serious 1009 00:53:51,440 --> 00:53:55,719 Speaker 6: that White House advisors, Trump advisors, both in the administration 1010 00:53:55,800 --> 00:53:59,200 Speaker 6: outside of the administration, are talking about different ideas if 1011 00:53:59,200 --> 00:54:02,160 Speaker 6: they do decide to do a course correction. Now obviously 1012 00:54:02,160 --> 00:54:04,200 Speaker 6: they're not going to call it a course correction. And 1013 00:54:04,239 --> 00:54:07,320 Speaker 6: there's basically three ideas here as you have on the screen. 1014 00:54:07,880 --> 00:54:11,720 Speaker 6: Idea Number one is have some sort of special council, 1015 00:54:11,920 --> 00:54:15,480 Speaker 6: some sort of special prosecutor or a team a special 1016 00:54:15,560 --> 00:54:19,440 Speaker 6: master to review the case from top to bottom, or 1017 00:54:19,560 --> 00:54:22,000 Speaker 6: to review the criminal elements of it from top to 1018 00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:25,120 Speaker 6: bottom to make sure it was prosecuted properly. And that 1019 00:54:25,200 --> 00:54:30,879 Speaker 6: helps get around Trump's discussion or statement that he's sort of. 1020 00:54:30,840 --> 00:54:33,319 Speaker 7: Done with this. There are still things to examine here, 1021 00:54:33,360 --> 00:54:34,440 Speaker 7: so that's number one. 1022 00:54:34,920 --> 00:54:38,920 Speaker 6: Number two is unredact those things that have been redacted. 1023 00:54:39,400 --> 00:54:42,120 Speaker 6: There is on the FBI website something called the Vault. 1024 00:54:42,239 --> 00:54:45,000 Speaker 6: You can read a number of Jeffrey Epstein documents there. 1025 00:54:45,280 --> 00:54:48,279 Speaker 6: Many are redacted. There are other documents that happened and 1026 00:54:48,440 --> 00:54:51,759 Speaker 6: uploaded that because it was just a massive investigation, a 1027 00:54:51,840 --> 00:54:55,160 Speaker 6: series of investigations over time. And the number three is 1028 00:54:55,280 --> 00:54:58,920 Speaker 6: courts have sealed various records in both criminal case and 1029 00:54:58,960 --> 00:55:01,680 Speaker 6: in some of the civil case. Is petition the courts 1030 00:55:01,880 --> 00:55:05,799 Speaker 6: to unseal those and this would bring more transparency and 1031 00:55:05,880 --> 00:55:06,759 Speaker 6: more stuff to light. 1032 00:55:07,120 --> 00:55:08,719 Speaker 7: Now there's a lot of caveats here. 1033 00:55:09,000 --> 00:55:12,000 Speaker 6: Mike Davis with the Article three project has been very 1034 00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:15,279 Speaker 6: forceful about this on Twitter, and he's right. Which is 1035 00:55:16,280 --> 00:55:20,319 Speaker 6: grand jury testimony which and there is grand jury documentation 1036 00:55:20,400 --> 00:55:23,080 Speaker 6: that has not been released is kept secret for a reason. 1037 00:55:23,520 --> 00:55:24,879 Speaker 7: There are people. 1038 00:55:24,719 --> 00:55:29,759 Speaker 6: Who are accused in these closed door proceedings of various things. 1039 00:55:29,760 --> 00:55:32,919 Speaker 6: There's evidence that's brought against them, but in a grand 1040 00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:35,880 Speaker 6: jury it's not rebutted evidence. That is, you don't have 1041 00:55:35,960 --> 00:55:38,400 Speaker 6: the defense counsel saying, wait a minute, what you're showing 1042 00:55:38,440 --> 00:55:40,680 Speaker 6: here is not true. It can be rebutted, it can 1043 00:55:40,719 --> 00:55:43,799 Speaker 6: be explained, it can be expanded or whatnot that's not 1044 00:55:43,880 --> 00:55:45,640 Speaker 6: in there. So if you just wind up releasing grand 1045 00:55:45,719 --> 00:55:48,520 Speaker 6: jury testimony, for instance, you could really come up with 1046 00:55:48,560 --> 00:55:51,760 Speaker 6: a warp sense of who is guilty and who isn't. 1047 00:55:52,000 --> 00:55:55,280 Speaker 6: And that sort of controls in understanding how the Department 1048 00:55:55,320 --> 00:55:59,279 Speaker 6: of Justice got to the situation and more broadly is 1049 00:55:59,880 --> 00:56:05,560 Speaker 6: the Justice Department since forever has never really disclosed and 1050 00:56:05,680 --> 00:56:10,080 Speaker 6: does not like to disclose, and understandably doesn't disclose information 1051 00:56:10,280 --> 00:56:14,160 Speaker 6: about potential suspects unless it's ready to indict. One of 1052 00:56:14,200 --> 00:56:16,000 Speaker 6: the reasons you'll read it say, in an indictment of 1053 00:56:16,000 --> 00:56:20,279 Speaker 6: a conspiracy, if they're indicting Mark Capudo at Axios for 1054 00:56:20,320 --> 00:56:22,799 Speaker 6: some sort of crime, and if one of my co 1055 00:56:22,800 --> 00:56:26,000 Speaker 6: conspirators is Charlie Kirk but he hasn't been charged yet, 1056 00:56:26,120 --> 00:56:29,520 Speaker 6: they'll just call you co conspirator one. They're not going 1057 00:56:29,600 --> 00:56:32,239 Speaker 6: to say Charlie Kirk until they're ready to indict. And 1058 00:56:32,280 --> 00:56:34,200 Speaker 6: the reason for that again is you don't want to 1059 00:56:34,239 --> 00:56:37,520 Speaker 6: accuse people before they're charged, and then once they're charged, 1060 00:56:37,520 --> 00:56:40,319 Speaker 6: they're still innocent until proven guilty in the court of 1061 00:56:40,320 --> 00:56:43,319 Speaker 6: public opinion. When you just start releasing all of this documentation, 1062 00:56:43,719 --> 00:56:47,600 Speaker 6: you don't have that careful, controlled process by which the 1063 00:56:47,640 --> 00:56:50,560 Speaker 6: truth can be arrived at through our legal system. 1064 00:56:51,360 --> 00:56:53,560 Speaker 15: Look, but we have to start to see some credible 1065 00:56:53,560 --> 00:56:56,640 Speaker 15: information to come up credible information. So the first question 1066 00:56:56,680 --> 00:57:00,319 Speaker 15: I have from your reporting, why is it that has 1067 00:57:00,360 --> 00:57:03,760 Speaker 15: not been for nine days now not a singular press conference. 1068 00:57:03,800 --> 00:57:07,120 Speaker 15: I mean, Caroline Levitt tried her best. And then also, Mark, 1069 00:57:07,200 --> 00:57:09,279 Speaker 15: why is it that a lot of your colleagues in 1070 00:57:09,320 --> 00:57:12,399 Speaker 15: the Washington Press Corps have not asked the president about 1071 00:57:12,440 --> 00:57:13,960 Speaker 15: this for nearly a week and a half. 1072 00:57:15,560 --> 00:57:18,400 Speaker 6: I think there was some question that was done outside 1073 00:57:18,440 --> 00:57:21,800 Speaker 6: of Air Force One, but I had I been there, 1074 00:57:21,840 --> 00:57:23,920 Speaker 6: I would certainly ask a little more about it. But 1075 00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:26,440 Speaker 6: Donald Trump certainly doesn't want to talk about as for 1076 00:57:26,520 --> 00:57:31,680 Speaker 6: whether Pam bondy, and to a degree, the deputy DOJ, 1077 00:57:32,280 --> 00:57:35,160 Speaker 6: Deputy Attorney General Todd blanch who's in charge of the 1078 00:57:35,200 --> 00:57:38,280 Speaker 6: criminal Division, whether they wind up talking to the press, 1079 00:57:38,320 --> 00:57:43,200 Speaker 6: perhaps you a podcast is probably a preferred forum to 1080 00:57:43,400 --> 00:57:46,440 Speaker 6: discuss the case. I think that's still an open question. 1081 00:57:47,000 --> 00:57:51,080 Speaker 6: But for now, the administration is following the lead as 1082 00:57:51,120 --> 00:57:53,840 Speaker 6: it does and as its structured to do of the president. 1083 00:57:54,360 --> 00:57:56,360 Speaker 6: President Trump doesn't want to really talk about this. He 1084 00:57:56,400 --> 00:57:59,520 Speaker 6: wants to move on, and so the official position now 1085 00:57:59,600 --> 00:58:03,680 Speaker 6: of themistration is we've said what we've said, and until 1086 00:58:03,680 --> 00:58:07,040 Speaker 6: the President decides to sort of uncork the bottle or 1087 00:58:07,200 --> 00:58:09,840 Speaker 6: decide to do more, we're not going to do more. 1088 00:58:11,080 --> 00:58:13,800 Speaker 15: Right just to one point here, though, I have to 1089 00:58:13,840 --> 00:58:15,880 Speaker 15: elaborate a little bit further, though, I know you said 1090 00:58:15,920 --> 00:58:18,120 Speaker 15: the President doesn't want to talk about it, But since 1091 00:58:18,120 --> 00:58:20,200 Speaker 15: one is the Washington Press Corps not asked questions about 1092 00:58:20,200 --> 00:58:21,120 Speaker 15: stuff Trump doesn't want to. 1093 00:58:21,120 --> 00:58:24,200 Speaker 7: Talk about, That's a great question. 1094 00:58:24,760 --> 00:58:28,360 Speaker 1: Again, colleagues you, I'm not blaming you, but I am curious. 1095 00:58:28,400 --> 00:58:29,160 Speaker 1: I'm not blaming you. 1096 00:58:29,360 --> 00:58:33,560 Speaker 15: Help the audience understand why your colleagues in the media 1097 00:58:33,640 --> 00:58:37,480 Speaker 15: are so uninterested in this. I just think there is 1098 00:58:37,560 --> 00:58:40,720 Speaker 15: some interesting not a single question, I mean there was. 1099 00:58:40,800 --> 00:58:43,560 Speaker 15: There was sixty five questions asked of President Trump in 1100 00:58:43,560 --> 00:58:45,920 Speaker 15: a week and a half and so from us in 1101 00:58:45,960 --> 00:58:49,120 Speaker 15: the grassroots. The reason this is important is that if 1102 00:58:49,160 --> 00:58:51,760 Speaker 15: he's not hearing from it from the Washington Press Corps, 1103 00:58:52,520 --> 00:58:54,520 Speaker 15: then he's like, oh, okay, it's not as big of 1104 00:58:54,560 --> 00:58:57,720 Speaker 15: a deal. So it's a little strange that the Washington 1105 00:58:57,760 --> 00:59:00,560 Speaker 15: Press Corps is not asking questions about it. Don't maybe 1106 00:59:00,600 --> 00:59:03,760 Speaker 15: I'm I don't quite. They're only covering one element of it. 1107 00:59:03,800 --> 00:59:06,920 Speaker 15: They're covering the well. You know, Maga is upset about this. 1108 00:59:08,160 --> 00:59:12,040 Speaker 15: Is it that maybe they're intimidated by President Trump? 1109 00:59:13,200 --> 00:59:15,360 Speaker 6: I'd say there's a number of factors. One, yes, he 1110 00:59:15,400 --> 00:59:17,360 Speaker 6: can be scary for people to ask questions of. And 1111 00:59:17,400 --> 00:59:19,640 Speaker 6: some people don't necessarily do a very good job asking. 1112 00:59:19,480 --> 00:59:21,200 Speaker 7: The question of that. I'm not going to name names. 1113 00:59:21,720 --> 00:59:27,120 Speaker 6: Two, there is the overall perception in the mainstream media. 1114 00:59:27,640 --> 00:59:29,560 Speaker 7: That the reality is. 1115 00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:34,760 Speaker 6: The reason that sort of the online MAGA base and 1116 00:59:34,800 --> 00:59:37,480 Speaker 6: a number of people who might not even be Trump 1117 00:59:37,600 --> 00:59:41,080 Speaker 6: voters think there's so much more here is that they 1118 00:59:41,080 --> 00:59:44,000 Speaker 6: were spun up by conspiracy theories that wind up either 1119 00:59:44,080 --> 00:59:48,880 Speaker 6: being untrue or unproducible or unverifiable. So there's no point 1120 00:59:48,920 --> 00:59:52,600 Speaker 6: asking I, however, am in your boat here that I 1121 00:59:52,640 --> 00:59:56,320 Speaker 6: think more questions should be asked about what the president 1122 00:59:56,360 --> 00:59:59,960 Speaker 6: is thinking and why he arrived at this idea. There 1123 01:00:00,160 --> 01:00:05,040 Speaker 6: is that notable Fox interview that resurfaced recently where he 1124 01:00:05,120 --> 01:00:09,600 Speaker 6: was asked about disclosing these records, and his response I 1125 01:00:09,640 --> 01:00:11,720 Speaker 6: thought was kind of telling and not enough people I 1126 01:00:11,720 --> 01:00:14,840 Speaker 6: think it paid attention to it, which is he had 1127 01:00:14,960 --> 01:00:16,840 Speaker 6: mentioned that and I'm. 1128 01:00:16,680 --> 01:00:17,760 Speaker 7: Sort of paraphrasing here. 1129 01:00:17,800 --> 01:00:20,320 Speaker 6: The reason he doesn't want to disclose those records is, quote, 1130 01:00:20,320 --> 01:00:23,280 Speaker 6: there's a lot of phony stuff in there, and this 1131 01:00:23,560 --> 01:00:25,480 Speaker 6: stuff he doesn't want to get out. And I think 1132 01:00:25,520 --> 01:00:28,920 Speaker 6: Donald Trump understands that because he was friends with Epstein 1133 01:00:28,960 --> 01:00:30,960 Speaker 6: for a period of time, He's going to be mentioned 1134 01:00:30,960 --> 01:00:34,320 Speaker 6: in there now. Julie Brown, who is the Miami Herald 1135 01:00:34,360 --> 01:00:38,560 Speaker 6: reporter who really was the one responsible for exposing the 1136 01:00:38,560 --> 01:00:41,640 Speaker 6: sweetheart deal that Epstein got and bringing him back to 1137 01:00:41,920 --> 01:00:45,320 Speaker 6: justice in twenty eighteen twenty nineteen. She has said she 1138 01:00:45,440 --> 01:00:47,560 Speaker 6: has not really heard that Donald Trump is a major 1139 01:00:47,600 --> 01:00:50,400 Speaker 6: player there. However, Trump is aware that once these documents 1140 01:00:50,440 --> 01:00:52,680 Speaker 6: get released, you're gonna get those headlines. But there are 1141 01:00:52,680 --> 01:00:55,440 Speaker 6: also just other people are going to be collateral damage. 1142 01:00:55,520 --> 01:00:58,440 Speaker 6: And that's just a controlling concern of his. That's something 1143 01:00:58,480 --> 01:01:00,360 Speaker 6: I would like to ask him more about, and I'd 1144 01:01:00,360 --> 01:01:02,360 Speaker 6: like to hear more from him. Sure, and yeah, sure 1145 01:01:02,400 --> 01:01:04,160 Speaker 6: if I have an opportunity. You know, you talk to 1146 01:01:04,200 --> 01:01:06,480 Speaker 6: Trump all the time. If he wants to sit down 1147 01:01:06,480 --> 01:01:08,280 Speaker 6: with an interview with me or discuss it, I would 1148 01:01:08,280 --> 01:01:09,400 Speaker 6: be more than happy to do it. 1149 01:01:09,520 --> 01:01:10,760 Speaker 1: We'll see what happens. 1150 01:01:11,200 --> 01:01:12,960 Speaker 15: Mark, I do want to keep you from another segment, though, 1151 01:01:12,960 --> 01:01:16,280 Speaker 15: I want to just narrow in more on the move 1152 01:01:16,480 --> 01:01:20,360 Speaker 15: of the unseiling of the Department of Justice grand jury 1153 01:01:20,400 --> 01:01:24,840 Speaker 15: testimony and whether or not you're saying it's very rare. However, 1154 01:01:25,200 --> 01:01:27,920 Speaker 15: I do think this is a rare case, and I 1155 01:01:28,040 --> 01:01:33,360 Speaker 15: understand that it's without cross examination.

Stay right there, Okay, everybody, welcome back. Mark 1214 01:04:40,040 --> 01:04:46,040 Speaker 15: Caputo is with us from Axios. Three ways that Trump 1215 01:04:46,160 --> 01:04:48,480 Speaker 15: might be able to diffuse the Epstein situation. 1216 01:04:48,840 --> 01:04:51,440 Speaker 1: So Mark, just really quick, is it? 1217 01:04:51,480 --> 01:04:52,560 Speaker 14: Is it? 1218 01:04:52,560 --> 01:04:54,840 Speaker 1: It's rare? But is it possible? 1219 01:04:54,920 --> 01:04:59,640 Speaker 15: Is the word I'm looking for to unseal the Grandeury testimony. 1220 01:05:01,640 --> 01:05:08,480 Speaker 7: I think it's possible. But if it's unsealed. I cannot 1221 01:05:08,560 --> 01:05:10,120 Speaker 7: see how there. 1222 01:05:10,000 --> 01:05:13,600 Speaker 6: Would not be the redactions in it that would make 1223 01:05:13,800 --> 01:05:16,880 Speaker 6: people happy. I'm ultimately part of the problem that the 1224 01:05:16,920 --> 01:05:19,440 Speaker 6: Trump administration has here is this is an article of 1225 01:05:19,480 --> 01:05:23,000 Speaker 6: faith by a number of people that there's an evil 1226 01:05:23,040 --> 01:05:28,480 Speaker 6: cabal of corrupt princes that rule this world and get 1227 01:05:28,560 --> 01:05:32,680 Speaker 6: away with crimes against children in humanity, and the Epstein 1228 01:05:32,720 --> 01:05:37,080 Speaker 6: case is a perfect example. And so if everything were 1229 01:05:37,120 --> 01:05:39,400 Speaker 6: to somehow come out, that would probably not be enough. 1230 01:05:39,200 --> 01:05:41,840 Speaker 7: For some people. But I'm not making a false choice here. 1231 01:05:41,840 --> 01:05:44,960 Speaker 6: The reality is there's a space between what was released 1232 01:05:45,080 --> 01:05:47,760 Speaker 6: on Sunday and what has been. 1233 01:05:47,640 --> 01:05:49,680 Speaker 7: Released so far and what can be released. 1234 01:05:50,240 --> 01:05:54,120 Speaker 6: So putting on my sort of thinking cap and listening 1235 01:05:54,160 --> 01:05:56,280 Speaker 6: to what folks in and out of the administration have 1236 01:05:56,360 --> 01:05:59,040 Speaker 6: said about these three sort of different ideas to bring 1237 01:05:59,040 --> 01:06:02,920 Speaker 6: more transparency to one of the ideas, the leading one 1238 01:06:02,960 --> 01:06:06,040 Speaker 6: is to have that special master, a special prosecutor special 1239 01:06:06,080 --> 01:06:11,080 Speaker 6: counsel to review the case and participate in sort of 1240 01:06:11,200 --> 01:06:17,040 Speaker 6: unredacting various documents and documentation. And I think there you 1241 01:06:17,080 --> 01:06:21,040 Speaker 6: could wind up with grand jury information disclosed, but it 1242 01:06:21,080 --> 01:06:24,560 Speaker 6: would be so exceedingly rare, and it would take quite 1243 01:06:24,600 --> 01:06:28,240 Speaker 6: an act by the President and by the government, by 1244 01:06:28,280 --> 01:06:29,000 Speaker 6: the Department of. 1245 01:06:28,960 --> 01:06:30,680 Speaker 7: Justice to decide to stick by that. 1246 01:06:31,520 --> 01:06:33,800 Speaker 6: I'm not going to say never, say never, but there's 1247 01:06:33,840 --> 01:06:38,720 Speaker 6: just such institutional resistance in DOJ regardless of who is there, 1248 01:06:38,760 --> 01:06:44,600 Speaker 6: and partly understandably so. But to your point, this has reached, 1249 01:06:44,680 --> 01:06:48,520 Speaker 6: at least online a crisis point for the administration to 1250 01:06:48,520 --> 01:06:52,880 Speaker 6: respond to. And there is a contrast to be drawn 1251 01:06:53,760 --> 01:06:56,320 Speaker 6: between the way the administration is handling the Epstein case 1252 01:06:56,880 --> 01:06:58,360 Speaker 6: and the way it's handling. 1253 01:06:57,960 --> 01:06:59,720 Speaker 7: The disclosure of the JFK. 1254 01:07:00,640 --> 01:07:04,160 Speaker 6: JFK was murdered sixty two years ago, and we're still 1255 01:07:04,280 --> 01:07:07,560 Speaker 6: receiving documentation now and more evidence, in part because the 1256 01:07:07,560 --> 01:07:12,080 Speaker 6: Trump administration is demanded that the United States government finally 1257 01:07:12,120 --> 01:07:14,720 Speaker 6: make good on the nineteen ninety two JFK Records Act 1258 01:07:14,720 --> 01:07:18,720 Speaker 6: and disclose everything. And we're still learning new stuff. And 1259 01:07:19,040 --> 01:07:21,440 Speaker 6: one of the reasons that's a good idea is that 1260 01:07:21,520 --> 01:07:26,480 Speaker 6: when you have information vacuums, false conspiracy theories easily fill it. 1261 01:07:26,960 --> 01:07:30,080 Speaker 6: And in the absence of more information, I don't think 1262 01:07:30,160 --> 01:07:31,960 Speaker 6: a lot of people are going to be satisfied with 1263 01:07:32,000 --> 01:07:34,000 Speaker 6: the answers or lack thereof that they've. 1264 01:07:33,800 --> 01:07:34,520 Speaker 7: Gotten so far. 1265 01:07:35,440 --> 01:07:37,760 Speaker 15: So what are the other two ideas then that you 1266 01:07:37,800 --> 01:07:40,360 Speaker 15: would propose to be able to proceed. 1267 01:07:40,120 --> 01:07:41,960 Speaker 7: Here, Well, I wouldn't propose. 1268 01:07:41,960 --> 01:07:46,640 Speaker 6: I just in my reporting what they're discussing, it's understandable 1269 01:07:46,680 --> 01:07:49,600 Speaker 6: and it's rational. Which is this special master to not 1270 01:07:49,640 --> 01:07:53,680 Speaker 6: only help disclose records and to issue a final report 1271 01:07:54,120 --> 01:07:58,880 Speaker 6: and to re examine the case, but also to redact 1272 01:07:59,000 --> 01:08:01,920 Speaker 6: those records that are unredact those records that have so 1273 01:08:01,960 --> 01:08:04,800 Speaker 6: far been released. Some of that can be done relatively easily. 1274 01:08:05,040 --> 01:08:08,600 Speaker 6: The government, regardless of agency and administration, always has a 1275 01:08:08,640 --> 01:08:12,640 Speaker 6: tendency to over redact things and then lastly to petition 1276 01:08:12,680 --> 01:08:15,640 Speaker 6: the courts to release those things that can be released 1277 01:08:15,640 --> 01:08:19,640 Speaker 6: without harming victims and innocent people who happen to be 1278 01:08:19,720 --> 01:08:22,320 Speaker 6: accused of wrongdoing or just happen to be in the 1279 01:08:22,320 --> 01:08:23,559 Speaker 6: wrong place at the wrong time. 1280 01:08:25,000 --> 01:08:29,160 Speaker 15: So the final point I suppose here is that it 1281 01:08:29,280 --> 01:08:31,680 Speaker 15: is is it your reporting and your contention that the 1282 01:08:31,760 --> 01:08:35,599 Speaker 15: current information that the Department of Justice has they cannot 1283 01:08:35,680 --> 01:08:38,760 Speaker 15: release or they will not release, And what is the 1284 01:08:38,800 --> 01:08:42,040 Speaker 15: reason your reporting bears out as to why they cannot 1285 01:08:42,160 --> 01:08:45,559 Speaker 15: or will not release what they all the information gathered 1286 01:08:45,600 --> 01:08:47,280 Speaker 15: currently at the Department of Justice. 1287 01:08:47,560 --> 01:08:49,800 Speaker 6: I think it's a combination of cannot release and will 1288 01:08:49,800 --> 01:08:50,320 Speaker 6: not release. 1289 01:08:51,000 --> 01:08:54,120 Speaker 7: That is, they are sort of they are still bound. 1290 01:08:54,479 --> 01:08:56,560 Speaker 6: The Department of Justice is a group of attorneys, and 1291 01:08:56,600 --> 01:08:59,080 Speaker 6: they're they're bound by their oath to the court and 1292 01:08:59,120 --> 01:09:02,200 Speaker 6: the US legal cism and the US legal system. To 1293 01:09:02,240 --> 01:09:06,200 Speaker 6: put a charitably frowns ondisclosing things like grand jury testimony 1294 01:09:06,200 --> 01:09:08,120 Speaker 6: for the reasons previously stated. 1295 01:09:08,760 --> 01:09:10,599 Speaker 7: But where there's a will, there's a way. 1296 01:09:10,880 --> 01:09:14,479 Speaker 6: And if President Trump determines that this stuff needs to 1297 01:09:14,479 --> 01:09:17,880 Speaker 6: be done, I assume that it's gonna get done in 1298 01:09:18,040 --> 01:09:20,479 Speaker 6: a relatively short period of time, but it's going to 1299 01:09:20,560 --> 01:09:21,120 Speaker 6: take a while. 1300 01:09:22,680 --> 01:09:24,960 Speaker 1: Mark.

I think Mark's. 1312 01:09:56,240 --> 01:09:58,720 Speaker 15: Reporting was very good on this, but I'm of the 1313 01:09:58,720 --> 01:10:01,080 Speaker 15: opinion you got to move to unc the DOJ. The 1314 01:10:01,120 --> 01:10:03,480 Speaker 15: DJ has got to moved on sealed the grandjury testimony. 1315 01:10:03,880 --> 01:10:05,880 Speaker 15: You got to figure it out.

Meeting with NATO's Secretary General 1348 01:12:06,640 --> 01:12:08,759 Speaker 10: at the White House on Monday, the Commander in Chief 1349 01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:11,640 Speaker 10: making it clear that his patience with Vladimir Putin is 1350 01:12:11,720 --> 01:12:12,479 Speaker 10: running short. 1351 01:12:12,800 --> 01:12:17,720 Speaker 9: We are very unhappy, I am with the Russia, but 1352 01:12:18,120 --> 01:12:21,160 Speaker 9: we'll discuss that maybe a different day.

If if you were advising the President 1396 01:14:34,280 --> 01:14:36,720 Speaker 15: the United States, if President Donald Trump called you up 1397 01:14:36,720 --> 01:14:39,640 Speaker 15: and said, Mike, what should I do that is reasonable? 1398 01:14:40,080 --> 01:14:41,439 Speaker 15: What would you tell him to do? 1399 01:14:43,000 --> 01:14:46,320 Speaker 23: I would tell him to have Pambondy walk down the 1400 01:14:46,360 --> 01:14:50,840 Speaker 23: hallway at main Justice to the Office of Professional Responsibility 1401 01:14:50,920 --> 01:14:56,160 Speaker 23: OPR and pull all files related to the November twenty 1402 01:14:56,200 --> 01:15:00,560 Speaker 23: twenty OPR report that evaluated Jeffrey Epstein's two thousand and 1403 01:15:00,600 --> 01:15:04,200 Speaker 23: eight plea deal. In the process of that OPR investigation, 1404 01:15:04,840 --> 01:15:09,320 Speaker 23: they interviewed everyone at Justice who was involved in that 1405 01:15:09,360 --> 01:15:12,559 Speaker 23: two thousand and eight plea deal Jeffrey Epstein, and sought 1406 01:15:12,600 --> 01:15:17,160 Speaker 23: to put the story to bed by collecting transcribed interviews, audio, 1407 01:15:18,360 --> 01:15:22,200 Speaker 23: and basically reams of files. The report itself took nine 1408 01:15:22,240 --> 01:15:25,639 Speaker 23: months to produce. It's three hundred and forty eight pages long, 1409 01:15:26,000 --> 01:15:29,439 Speaker 23: but it leaves out the critical information that's necessary for 1410 01:15:29,520 --> 01:15:32,679 Speaker 23: both the public and the current Justice Department to understand 1411 01:15:32,680 --> 01:15:36,640 Speaker 23: the Epstein issue. In particular, they interviewed Alex Acosta, the 1412 01:15:36,840 --> 01:15:40,599 Speaker 23: main Justice Department official who gave Jeffrey Epstein the sweetheart 1413 01:15:40,600 --> 01:15:46,240 Speaker 23: plea deal about Epstein's intelligence ties. They have a one 1414 01:15:46,320 --> 01:15:49,840 Speaker 23: line summary for that conversation buried in a footnote on 1415 01:15:49,920 --> 01:15:55,040 Speaker 23: footnote two hundred and forty four. Pull that transcript from 1416 01:15:55,240 --> 01:15:59,160 Speaker 23: DOJOPR and Alex Acosta and make that transcript public so 1417 01:15:59,200 --> 01:16:02,919 Speaker 23: we know exactly what the Justice Department asked about Epstein's 1418 01:16:02,920 --> 01:16:06,960 Speaker 23: intelligence ties and exactly what Acosta, who cut the plea 1419 01:16:07,000 --> 01:16:07,719 Speaker 23: deal said. 1420 01:16:08,560 --> 01:16:11,040 Speaker 15: Okay, so let's let me just repeat that. So this 1421 01:16:11,200 --> 01:16:16,400 Speaker 15: was an OPR Office of what again, Professional Responsibility, postal responsibility, 1422 01:16:16,680 --> 01:16:18,719 Speaker 15: internal report on Jeffrey Epstein. 1423 01:16:19,040 --> 01:16:19,679 Speaker 1: Is that correct? 1424 01:16:19,800 --> 01:16:23,320 Speaker 23: Well, they produced it for the public. This was so 1425 01:16:24,000 --> 01:16:28,040 Speaker 23: here's a history of this. The second indictment for Jeffrey 1426 01:16:28,040 --> 01:16:31,920 Speaker 23: Epstein happened after a I believe it was. The Miami 1427 01:16:31,960 --> 01:16:36,719 Speaker 23: Herald published a kind of blockbuster series in twenty eighteen 1428 01:16:37,360 --> 01:16:40,240 Speaker 23: about the contents of the secret plea deal that the 1429 01:16:40,360 --> 01:16:44,200 Speaker 23: Justice Department cut, the fact that it had been it 1430 01:16:44,240 --> 01:16:46,960 Speaker 23: had been offered before the Justice Department even reviewed key 1431 01:16:47,040 --> 01:16:51,840 Speaker 23: evidence that victims were not included in the talks about 1432 01:16:51,840 --> 01:16:54,679 Speaker 23: the plea deal, that it had been hijacked from the FBI, 1433 01:16:54,800 --> 01:16:59,920 Speaker 23: had been stopped from pursuing prosecution. That creates a big scandal, 1434 01:17:00,040 --> 01:17:04,799 Speaker 23: and in February twenty nineteen. In February twenty nineteen, the 1435 01:17:04,920 --> 01:17:07,800 Speaker 23: Justice Department announces that it's going to be conducting this 1436 01:17:11,040 --> 01:17:16,920 Speaker 23: basically special review, this Office of Professional Responsibility review of 1437 01:17:17,120 --> 01:17:21,000 Speaker 23: the Epstein plea deal, in response to the giant outrage 1438 01:17:21,120 --> 01:17:26,559 Speaker 23: over the Miami Herald series. Now five months later, Jeffrey 1439 01:17:26,560 --> 01:17:29,960 Speaker 23: Epstein in July twenty nineteen gets arrested. 1440 01:17:30,120 --> 01:17:31,559 Speaker 14: On July six, twenty nineteen. 1441 01:17:31,920 --> 01:17:36,040 Speaker 23: Three days later, Vicky Ward publishes an article saying, alex 1442 01:17:36,080 --> 01:17:41,360 Speaker 23: Acosta said that Jeffrey Epstein belonged to intelligence and that's 1443 01:17:41,400 --> 01:17:43,240 Speaker 23: why he cut him the plea deal, and. 1444 01:17:43,160 --> 01:17:44,360 Speaker 14: He was told the back off. 1445 01:17:45,240 --> 01:17:46,200 Speaker 1: So here's my question. 1446 01:17:46,280 --> 01:17:49,519 Speaker 15: So are you saying that there are transcripts that could 1447 01:17:49,600 --> 01:17:54,240 Speaker 15: get released that were the underlying supportive material of this 1448 01:17:54,320 --> 01:17:55,240 Speaker 15: OPR report? 1449 01:17:56,160 --> 01:17:57,200 Speaker 1: Yes, okay, got it. 1450 01:17:57,240 --> 01:18:01,919 Speaker 15: So you want the raw data underneath the OPR report. Essentially, 1451 01:18:01,960 --> 01:18:05,599 Speaker 15: that's that's the thrust of your focus. If the president 1452 01:18:05,680 --> 01:18:06,840 Speaker 15: was asking, hey, what do I do? 1453 01:18:08,120 --> 01:18:11,080 Speaker 23: Yes, because the meta question that hangs over this whole 1454 01:18:11,120 --> 01:18:13,960 Speaker 23: thing is did is it true? Did he get the 1455 01:18:14,000 --> 01:18:16,439 Speaker 23: plea deal because he quote belonged to intelligence and if 1456 01:18:16,439 --> 01:18:20,800 Speaker 23: that's true, we that's that's the question that just has 1457 01:18:20,880 --> 01:18:23,080 Speaker 23: to be answered, or at least has to be attempted 1458 01:18:23,120 --> 01:18:29,800 Speaker 23: to be answered, because that's that's really the great speculation 1459 01:18:29,920 --> 01:18:33,440 Speaker 23: that you can't answer fully without some sort of confirmation 1460 01:18:34,600 --> 01:18:37,759 Speaker 23: or at least boxes being checked now now in that process, 1461 01:18:37,760 --> 01:18:41,360 Speaker 23: by the way, Charlie OPR works with the CIA Office 1462 01:18:41,360 --> 01:18:44,760 Speaker 23: of General Counsel. The Office of General Counsel is who 1463 01:18:44,800 --> 01:18:50,360 Speaker 23: coordinates with the the Justice Department OPR whenever there's anything 1464 01:18:50,520 --> 01:18:55,880 Speaker 23: sensitive or relating to classified or confidential information. Oftentimes the 1465 01:18:56,560 --> 01:19:00,160 Speaker 23: you know, DJ and CIA will work together on on 1466 01:19:00,240 --> 01:19:02,960 Speaker 23: any sort of classified element. And I would like to know, 1467 01:19:03,040 --> 01:19:04,880 Speaker 23: for example, I think the public has a right to 1468 01:19:04,920 --> 01:19:07,960 Speaker 23: know in the production of this November twenty twenty report, 1469 01:19:08,040 --> 01:19:11,479 Speaker 23: because it's so strange the way it's put together. It 1470 01:19:11,560 --> 01:19:14,200 Speaker 23: was supposed to put the intelligence issue to bed, and 1471 01:19:14,240 --> 01:19:16,639 Speaker 23: they buried it in one line on page one hundred 1472 01:19:16,640 --> 01:19:17,200 Speaker 23: and sixty nine. 1473 01:19:17,280 --> 01:19:19,679 Speaker 15: OK, let's tip into that. So this is a big 1474 01:19:19,680 --> 01:19:22,599 Speaker 15: part of this. So the question is was Jeffrey Epstein 1475 01:19:22,640 --> 01:19:25,600 Speaker 15: an intelligence asset? And some people are saying that he 1476 01:19:25,680 --> 01:19:28,280 Speaker 15: was an intelligence asset of Massad. I do have to 1477 01:19:28,320 --> 01:19:30,080 Speaker 15: read this and I want your response. This is from 1478 01:19:30,120 --> 01:19:34,120 Speaker 15: Naftali benefit Bennett, former Israel Israeli Prime Minister. He says, 1479 01:19:34,200 --> 01:19:37,719 Speaker 15: yesterday quote as for Israeli Prime minister, with the Massad 1480 01:19:37,920 --> 01:19:39,880 Speaker 15: having reported directly to me, I can say with you 1481 01:19:39,920 --> 01:19:43,280 Speaker 15: one hundred percent certainty quote. The accusation that Jeffrey Epstein 1482 01:19:43,360 --> 01:19:46,759 Speaker 15: somehow worked for Israel or the Masad running a blackmail 1483 01:19:46,840 --> 01:19:51,240 Speaker 15: ring is categorically and totally false. Epstein's conduct, both the 1484 01:19:51,240 --> 01:19:54,439 Speaker 15: criminal and merely despicable, had nothing whatsoever to do with 1485 01:19:54,520 --> 01:19:57,439 Speaker 15: Massad or the State of Israel. Epstein never worked for 1486 01:19:57,479 --> 01:20:00,760 Speaker 15: the Massad. This accusation is a live being peddled by 1487 01:20:00,840 --> 01:20:03,400 Speaker 15: He mentions Tucker Carlston by name, who's a friend of mine. 1488 01:20:04,320 --> 01:20:06,479 Speaker 15: But he just mentioned him, and they just make things up, 1489 01:20:06,560 --> 01:20:09,080 Speaker 15: say with confidence and lies. This is vicious lies. We 1490 01:20:09,120 --> 01:20:11,439 Speaker 15: will not take it anymore.

So, rebuttal, do you believe that? Mike pretty 1493 01:20:23,720 --> 01:20:24,400 Speaker 15: strong denial? 1494 01:20:24,560 --> 01:20:25,599 Speaker 1: Do you believe that? 1495 01:20:26,280 --> 01:20:29,479 Speaker 15: Or number one number two could Jeffrey Epstein been m 1496 01:20:29,520 --> 01:20:33,519 Speaker 15: I six Central Intelligence Sawdy Intelligence, Mike benz Well. 1497 01:20:33,560 --> 01:20:35,920 Speaker 23: I when I hear that, I hear the same sort 1498 01:20:35,920 --> 01:20:38,839 Speaker 23: of carefully worded statement that I hear from the CIA side. 1499 01:20:39,160 --> 01:20:43,840 Speaker 23: I don't believe that Jeffrey Epstein his intelligence aspects were 1500 01:20:44,200 --> 01:20:48,360 Speaker 23: primarily around blackmail. I was never I've never been really 1501 01:20:48,360 --> 01:20:50,000 Speaker 23: interested in the blackmail side of that. 1502 01:20:50,160 --> 01:20:50,479 Speaker 14: Of this. 1503 01:20:50,960 --> 01:20:53,959 Speaker 23: He's a he was a financier, he was a financial 1504 01:20:54,000 --> 01:20:58,840 Speaker 23: fixer the SEI. I can name ten examples of what 1505 01:20:58,880 --> 01:20:59,360 Speaker 23: do you c I. 1506 01:20:59,760 --> 01:21:01,840 Speaker 15: What do you mean a financial fixer? Because obviously he 1507 01:21:01,840 --> 01:21:04,160 Speaker 15: didn't make his money. I mean he didn't earn it 1508 01:21:04,200 --> 01:21:07,720 Speaker 15: through trades or by market brilliance. So what do you 1509 01:21:07,760 --> 01:21:08,240 Speaker 15: mean by that? 1510 01:21:09,880 --> 01:21:10,120 Speaker 14: Look? 1511 01:21:10,200 --> 01:21:13,760 Speaker 23: Think about figures like Mark Rich and Bruce Rapaport. These 1512 01:21:13,760 --> 01:21:17,960 Speaker 23: are people who who work with US intelligence as well 1513 01:21:18,000 --> 01:21:21,599 Speaker 23: as Israeli intelligence as well as an intelligence agencies across 1514 01:21:21,640 --> 01:21:24,400 Speaker 23: the Five Eyes and across the sort of old Safari 1515 01:21:24,439 --> 01:21:26,080 Speaker 23: Club from the seventies and eighties. 1516 01:21:26,640 --> 01:21:28,000 Speaker 14: These are figures. 1517 01:21:27,600 --> 01:21:32,800 Speaker 23: Who have access to huge amounts of capital and when 1518 01:21:32,840 --> 01:21:36,960 Speaker 23: the when the CIA wants to do something but off 1519 01:21:36,960 --> 01:21:39,559 Speaker 23: books in terms of transaction, or the State Department wants 1520 01:21:39,600 --> 01:21:42,640 Speaker 23: a pipeline done in the Middle East, but they need security, 1521 01:21:43,000 --> 01:21:45,799 Speaker 23: they need guarantees or buying from a couple of different 1522 01:21:45,840 --> 01:21:49,120 Speaker 23: governments and were arms brokers. I mean this is like, 1523 01:21:49,160 --> 01:21:51,639 Speaker 23: this is like the odd Non Koshogi story. For example, right, 1524 01:21:51,640 --> 01:21:55,960 Speaker 23: odd non Koshogi. Jeffrey Epstein personally bragged that odd Nan 1525 01:21:56,000 --> 01:22:00,160 Speaker 23: Kashogi was one of his top clients in nineteen eighty seven. Well, 1526 01:22:00,160 --> 01:22:04,160 Speaker 23: what was Adnan Koshoki doing in nineteen eighty seven? Adan 1527 01:22:04,240 --> 01:22:08,880 Speaker 23: Kashogi was the middleman between the US and Israel on 1528 01:22:09,400 --> 01:22:11,880 Speaker 23: Iran contrary, it was odd On Koshogi when he flew 1529 01:22:11,960 --> 01:22:14,600 Speaker 23: to the White House. He was a snowt On Koshogi 1530 01:22:14,680 --> 01:22:18,839 Speaker 23: was a Saudy, the biggest arms dealer in world history. 1531 01:22:19,280 --> 01:22:22,439 Speaker 23: He he made three times more as a commissions agent 1532 01:22:22,479 --> 01:22:27,080 Speaker 23: for Lockey Martin than every other arms broker combined three times. 1533 01:22:26,800 --> 01:22:28,640 Speaker 15: For So let me just interrupt you. Sorry, Mike, this 1534 01:22:28,680 --> 01:22:31,400 Speaker 15: is breaking news. This is three thirty four. President Trump 1535 01:22:31,479 --> 01:22:34,200 Speaker 15: was asked about Jeffrey Epstein saying that anything that is 1536 01:22:34,280 --> 01:22:37,080 Speaker 15: credible should be released. It's funny we said the same 1537 01:22:37,120 --> 01:22:39,479 Speaker 15: thing yesterday, just moments ago. Play cut three thirty four. 1538 01:22:40,360 --> 01:22:43,799 Speaker 11: Ostina, there were a few of the files. Rynal Pamponi, very. 1539 01:22:43,840 --> 01:22:45,920 Speaker 13: Very quick briefing here did she tell you? 1540 01:22:45,960 --> 01:22:47,960 Speaker 22: What did she tell you about when you had specifically 1541 01:22:47,960 --> 01:22:48,599 Speaker 22: think she'd. 1542 01:22:48,439 --> 01:22:50,640 Speaker 4: Tell you about all that your name up here and 1543 01:22:50,960 --> 01:22:51,320 Speaker 4: bought and. 1544 01:22:51,439 --> 01:22:55,760 Speaker 24: No, No, she's she's given us just a very quick 1545 01:22:55,800 --> 01:22:59,080 Speaker 24: briefing and in terms of the credibility of the different 1546 01:22:59,080 --> 01:23:02,200 Speaker 24: things that they've seen, and I would say. 1547 01:23:01,920 --> 01:23:03,759 Speaker 18: That you know, these files were made. 1548 01:23:03,640 --> 01:23:06,639 Speaker 24: Up by Komi, they were made up by Obama, they 1549 01:23:06,640 --> 01:23:07,599 Speaker 24: were made up by. 1550 01:23:07,439 --> 01:23:10,120 Speaker 18: But the biting it from you know, uh we and. 1551 01:23:10,040 --> 01:23:14,720 Speaker 8: We went through years of that with the Russia, Russia, Russia. 1552 01:23:14,479 --> 01:23:17,000 Speaker 18: Hopes with all of the different things that we had 1553 01:23:17,000 --> 01:23:19,200 Speaker 18: to go through. We've gone through years of it. But 1554 01:23:19,320 --> 01:23:21,479 Speaker 18: she's handled it very well and it's. 1555 01:23:21,360 --> 01:23:22,120 Speaker 1: Going to be up to her. 1556 01:23:22,120 --> 01:23:24,920 Speaker 24: Whatever she thinks is credible, she should release you. 1557 01:23:26,080 --> 01:23:28,640 Speaker 15: That's the end at the kicker here, And it's a 1558 01:23:28,640 --> 01:23:30,840 Speaker 15: little so so Mike, I'm starrying interrupt because that was 1559 01:23:30,920 --> 01:23:32,519 Speaker 15: very important. We're going to go along here, by the way, 1560 01:23:32,520 --> 01:23:34,400 Speaker 15: so we're gonna be able to cover the small dimensions. 1561 01:23:34,760 --> 01:23:35,479 Speaker 1: So based on. 1562 01:23:35,520 --> 01:23:39,240 Speaker 15: Your original point, that o PR Office of General Council 1563 01:23:39,320 --> 01:23:43,479 Speaker 15: transcript would be credible, right and then potentially could be released, 1564 01:23:43,640 --> 01:23:47,799 Speaker 15: So that would fit within what you're talking about here, Mike. 1565 01:23:47,680 --> 01:23:53,479 Speaker 23: Benns exactly hard forensic evidence. I also believe that on 1566 01:23:53,520 --> 01:23:56,800 Speaker 23: the CIA side, you're not looking for black but I'm 1567 01:23:56,800 --> 01:24:00,479 Speaker 23: not saying blackmail didn't happen. I don't know if it 1568 01:24:00,479 --> 01:24:02,840 Speaker 23: did or didn't, but I don't see the evidence that 1569 01:24:02,920 --> 01:24:06,280 Speaker 23: it did. And it wouldn't be Epstein himself who would 1570 01:24:06,320 --> 01:24:09,000 Speaker 23: be doing it, because then you lose all the access 1571 01:24:09,560 --> 01:24:12,720 Speaker 23: and you lose all the deal brokering if you have 1572 01:24:12,760 --> 01:24:15,840 Speaker 23: a reputation as a blackmailer. The fact is is what 1573 01:24:15,960 --> 01:24:20,520 Speaker 23: the CIA needs first and foremost is money. Jeffrey Epstein's 1574 01:24:20,560 --> 01:24:24,000 Speaker 23: career started at the time of the creation of a 1575 01:24:24,080 --> 01:24:27,840 Speaker 23: private CIA in the CIA. He started his career at 1576 01:24:27,840 --> 01:24:31,519 Speaker 23: bear Stearn's under a Screenberg between in nineteen seventy six. 1577 01:24:31,560 --> 01:24:35,280 Speaker 23: He was there until nineteen eighty That's the exact period 1578 01:24:35,479 --> 01:24:40,679 Speaker 23: under Jimmy Carter when the CIA got destroyed in the budget, 1579 01:24:40,920 --> 01:24:44,920 Speaker 23: got all these handcuffs placed on it. In nineteen seventy nine, 1580 01:24:45,000 --> 01:24:48,920 Speaker 23: Iran fell and this is what set off a whole. 1581 01:24:50,120 --> 01:24:52,120 Speaker 14: Private CIA operation. 1582 01:24:51,800 --> 01:24:55,200 Speaker 23: Through Iran Contra and the Iran Iraq War between nineteen 1583 01:24:55,280 --> 01:24:59,040 Speaker 23: eighty nine in nineteen eighty eight, and it was this 1584 01:24:59,160 --> 01:25:04,000 Speaker 23: exact network of f financiers primarily around US Israel, but 1585 01:25:04,080 --> 01:25:10,160 Speaker 23: also UK, France and Saudi and their interests in having 1586 01:25:10,200 --> 01:25:14,439 Speaker 23: to deal with Iran, And so you have these financial fixers, Like, 1587 01:25:14,520 --> 01:25:16,439 Speaker 23: let's just stick with this Kashogi story for a second. 1588 01:25:16,520 --> 01:25:19,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, you got thirty seconds, Sorry, Mike, Get on. 1589 01:25:20,160 --> 01:25:20,960 Speaker 14: It was Kashogi. 1590 01:25:21,240 --> 01:25:23,920 Speaker 23: When Kashogi flew to the White House in nineteen eighty 1591 01:25:23,920 --> 01:25:28,760 Speaker 23: three to meet with Ronald Reagan's National Security advisor to 1592 01:25:28,960 --> 01:25:33,040 Speaker 23: pitch the idea of arms to Iran to sell the 1593 01:25:33,080 --> 01:25:37,760 Speaker 23: proceeds to Nicaragua. The whole plan was was how do 1594 01:25:37,800 --> 01:25:40,080 Speaker 23: you do that despite an arms embargo, the fact that 1595 01:25:40,120 --> 01:25:44,879 Speaker 23: it's illegal. So what they did is they used Israel's 1596 01:25:44,880 --> 01:25:48,640 Speaker 23: a middleman to sell the arms and then achieve the 1597 01:25:48,640 --> 01:25:52,400 Speaker 23: goals in Nicaragua. But this was a US intelligence operation 1598 01:25:52,640 --> 01:25:58,479 Speaker 23: that needed covert financing throughout non Koshogi, who Jeffrey Epstein 1599 01:25:58,560 --> 01:26:01,960 Speaker 23: client in ordered to sell arms to Iran to do, 1600 01:26:02,200 --> 01:26:06,480 Speaker 23: you know, to basically have a proxy war in Nicaragua. 1601 01:26:06,680 --> 01:26:09,360 Speaker 14: What I'm saying is is this is the sort of 1602 01:26:09,360 --> 01:26:12,320 Speaker 14: thing that you need for COVID action. You need covert financing. 1603 01:26:12,600 --> 01:26:15,120 Speaker 14: Jeffrey Epstein everyone who talks to him. 1604 01:26:15,680 --> 01:26:19,080 Speaker 15: Okay, so sorry, Mike, I'm just I'm going to blow 1605 01:26:19,080 --> 01:26:19,840 Speaker 15: through the breaks here. 1606 01:26:20,040 --> 01:26:21,840 Speaker 1: But then, where do you think is the source of 1607 01:26:21,880 --> 01:26:22,360 Speaker 1: the money? 1608 01:26:22,400 --> 01:26:25,760 Speaker 23: Then, well, I think the source of the money are 1609 01:26:25,840 --> 01:26:30,760 Speaker 23: the folks in different aspects of the finance world who 1610 01:26:30,880 --> 01:26:35,960 Speaker 23: are principally who have access to the pools of money 1611 01:26:36,080 --> 01:26:39,799 Speaker 23: that Epstein brokers. So, for example, I think that Jeffrey 1612 01:26:39,800 --> 01:26:43,639 Speaker 23: Epstein got his career start of his career serving Bear Stearns. Well, 1613 01:26:43,680 --> 01:26:46,240 Speaker 23: I think it started, I mean with the Edgar bronfin 1614 01:26:46,640 --> 01:26:48,719 Speaker 23: and the and the Ace Greenberg network. 1615 01:26:48,960 --> 01:26:51,000 Speaker 15: Ten seconds, we'll be right back.

That's not what would be 1630 01:27:35,200 --> 01:27:38,400 Speaker 23: in the intelligence files. What what I believe you would 1631 01:27:38,439 --> 01:27:41,160 Speaker 23: find if you look for it would be that would 1632 01:27:41,200 --> 01:27:45,240 Speaker 23: be the different financial transactions, the private financial truth. 1633 01:27:45,479 --> 01:27:47,840 Speaker 14: So this is the role would not be as an asset. 1634 01:27:47,880 --> 01:27:49,760 Speaker 23: And this is why I say I don't like when 1635 01:27:49,760 --> 01:27:52,840 Speaker 23: I hear the phrase intelligence asset.

There never is for financial fixers. 1642 01:28:10,520 --> 01:28:14,439 Speaker 23: I did a study recently of ten financial fixers that 1643 01:28:14,439 --> 01:28:19,040 Speaker 23: that the CIA used for various covert financing. 1644 01:28:18,840 --> 01:28:21,080 Speaker 1: Name covert action file, one that people would know. 1645 01:28:21,800 --> 01:28:27,160 Speaker 23: Bruce, Bruce Rappaport, Mark Rich like as I just said, 1646 01:28:27,280 --> 01:28:29,360 Speaker 23: I mean, I can I have a list on me 1647 01:28:29,520 --> 01:28:32,280 Speaker 23: if if you want me to go names. 1648 01:28:33,760 --> 01:28:38,120 Speaker 15: So just so, the an intelligence financial fixer someone who 1649 01:28:38,240 --> 01:28:41,719 Speaker 15: is given a pool of money and distributes it upon command. 1650 01:28:42,400 --> 01:28:44,519 Speaker 14: No, no, no, no, no, They're not given a pool 1651 01:28:44,560 --> 01:28:47,880 Speaker 14: of money. They are. They have access to money. Think 1652 01:28:48,040 --> 01:28:49,719 Speaker 14: so let me get give you an example. Okay. 1653 01:28:49,720 --> 01:28:55,040 Speaker 23: In nineteen fifty one, declassified CIA records show show the 1654 01:28:55,200 --> 01:28:59,639 Speaker 23: head of Intelligence ahead of Research Analysis for the CIA 1655 01:29:00,080 --> 01:29:02,639 Speaker 23: sending a letter to the head of the CIA saying, 1656 01:29:02,680 --> 01:29:06,439 Speaker 23: next time you talk to the Ford Foundation, get ask 1657 01:29:06,560 --> 01:29:10,439 Speaker 23: them if they can provide financing to the following universities. Now, 1658 01:29:10,520 --> 01:29:12,800 Speaker 23: this is because the CIA doesn't have enough money in 1659 01:29:12,840 --> 01:29:17,599 Speaker 23: the budget to fund thirty different universities they need. They 1660 01:29:17,640 --> 01:29:23,200 Speaker 23: want financing for research done at universities on sovietology, on 1661 01:29:23,240 --> 01:29:25,880 Speaker 23: what's going on in Africa or Asia. They don't have 1662 01:29:25,960 --> 01:29:28,080 Speaker 23: the money for it. They can't get it through Congress. 1663 01:29:28,400 --> 01:29:31,960 Speaker 23: But they have friends, friends of the station, and so 1664 01:29:32,320 --> 01:29:35,680 Speaker 23: they will speak with outside groups, or they'll speak with 1665 01:29:35,760 --> 01:29:41,280 Speaker 23: foundations or hedge fund managers to arrange financing that is 1666 01:29:41,280 --> 01:29:46,160 Speaker 23: not on the CIA's books and that will accomplish the goal. 1667 01:29:46,240 --> 01:29:47,960 Speaker 14: It's the same thing with Epstein. 1668 01:29:49,000 --> 01:29:52,519 Speaker 23: Epstein is I don't think it's moving CIA money. The 1669 01:29:52,560 --> 01:29:56,880 Speaker 23: CIA has a goal, for example, in the Middle East, 1670 01:29:57,560 --> 01:30:03,600 Speaker 23: they want a pipeline construction, or they want some initiative 1671 01:30:03,800 --> 01:30:07,160 Speaker 23: to go through, but it requires juicing the deal by 1672 01:30:07,200 --> 01:30:11,799 Speaker 23: getting buy in from folks in Saudi Arabia, folks in Egypt, 1673 01:30:12,040 --> 01:30:16,559 Speaker 23: folks in France. Somebody has to put that deal together 1674 01:30:16,720 --> 01:30:19,800 Speaker 23: and be responsible for the deal in case it goes wrong. 1675 01:30:20,680 --> 01:30:23,920 Speaker 23: And also sometimes these deals are quite dirty or they 1676 01:30:23,960 --> 01:30:27,120 Speaker 23: inflame other allies of the United States. So the US 1677 01:30:27,200 --> 01:30:29,840 Speaker 23: does not want to be to look like all that thought. 1678 01:30:29,920 --> 01:30:31,679 Speaker 1: Stay right there, Mike, stay right there. 1679 01:30:40,080 --> 01:30:43,080 Speaker 15: They go to Patriotmobile dot com slash Charlie.

Mike, please continue your thought. Sorry keep interrupting. 1696 01:31:28,800 --> 01:31:32,519 Speaker 23: Okay, so let's get Let's use a specific example. I 1697 01:31:32,600 --> 01:31:35,080 Speaker 23: mentioned a couple names like Bruce Rapaport, Mark Rich and 1698 01:31:35,120 --> 01:31:40,240 Speaker 23: the like. So so Bruce Rapaport. There's a scandal that 1699 01:31:40,280 --> 01:31:44,120 Speaker 23: folks would do well to look back at today, and 1700 01:31:44,120 --> 01:31:48,960 Speaker 23: that was the pipeline scandal in the nineteen eighties that 1701 01:31:49,120 --> 01:31:54,840 Speaker 23: involved Ronald Reagan's Attorney general during the attempted construction of 1702 01:31:54,880 --> 01:31:58,200 Speaker 23: a pipeline through Iraq. Now this was that the Iraq 1703 01:31:58,280 --> 01:32:02,840 Speaker 23: was being The pipeline was to be built by basically 1704 01:32:03,240 --> 01:32:07,120 Speaker 23: the Bechtel Halliburton network, a US company, but it was 1705 01:32:07,320 --> 01:32:09,479 Speaker 23: there was a lot of tensions because of the Iran 1706 01:32:09,520 --> 01:32:14,759 Speaker 23: Iraq War, and so the US government wanted this pipeline done. 1707 01:32:14,840 --> 01:32:18,160 Speaker 23: The CIA wanted this pipeline done. They believed that it 1708 01:32:18,160 --> 01:32:21,559 Speaker 23: would advance US interest to do so, but they wanted 1709 01:32:21,640 --> 01:32:24,600 Speaker 23: to make sure that Israel did not attack the pipeline 1710 01:32:24,960 --> 01:32:27,160 Speaker 23: because of its proximity. 1711 01:32:26,640 --> 01:32:27,920 Speaker 14: To the conflict zone. 1712 01:32:28,280 --> 01:32:32,560 Speaker 23: So what they did is they engaged Bruce Rappaport, a outside, 1713 01:32:32,840 --> 01:32:41,720 Speaker 23: highly controversial financier Swiss Israeli and who was also basically 1714 01:32:41,880 --> 01:32:45,959 Speaker 23: a very close friend of William Casey, the CIA director. 1715 01:32:46,040 --> 01:32:51,519 Speaker 23: They were golfing buddies, they were close friends, They met 1716 01:32:51,640 --> 01:32:57,840 Speaker 23: very frequently, and Bruce Rappaport played the role of not 1717 01:32:57,880 --> 01:33:02,440 Speaker 23: only providing the financing but ensuring that there would be 1718 01:33:02,560 --> 01:33:06,200 Speaker 23: that there would be security guarantees because he was very 1719 01:33:06,200 --> 01:33:09,360 Speaker 23: close with friends in the Israeli government. Now, what happened 1720 01:33:09,400 --> 01:33:13,360 Speaker 23: there was there ended up being a special prosecutor investigation 1721 01:33:13,840 --> 01:33:17,559 Speaker 23: into the Attorney General of the United States because of 1722 01:33:17,600 --> 01:33:21,040 Speaker 23: this scandal, because they argued that there was kind of 1723 01:33:21,040 --> 01:33:25,080 Speaker 23: a paid to play aspect going on with this, and 1724 01:33:25,960 --> 01:33:28,120 Speaker 23: but what and they they argued that there were bribes. 1725 01:33:28,160 --> 01:33:31,160 Speaker 23: But what Bruce Rappidport ended up saying later was no, no, no. 1726 01:33:31,200 --> 01:33:33,479 Speaker 23: According to the there were no bribes. According to this 1727 01:33:33,560 --> 01:33:35,680 Speaker 23: secret deal, the Israeli government was actually going to get 1728 01:33:35,680 --> 01:33:38,439 Speaker 23: a thirty percent equity stake in it, so. 1729 01:33:38,360 --> 01:33:39,719 Speaker 14: Nobody actually got paid. 1730 01:33:39,920 --> 01:33:41,640 Speaker 23: But the fact is, at that point you need to 1731 01:33:41,640 --> 01:33:44,960 Speaker 23: coordinate four different Middle East governments as well as as 1732 01:33:44,960 --> 01:33:48,320 Speaker 23: well as US and US contractor interest in this. So 1733 01:33:48,640 --> 01:33:50,479 Speaker 23: this is what I believe the girls are in the 1734 01:33:50,520 --> 01:33:53,800 Speaker 23: Epstein story. Girls juice deals when you are when you 1735 01:33:53,920 --> 01:33:57,439 Speaker 23: are having to coordinate with all these sort of saudy 1736 01:33:57,479 --> 01:34:01,320 Speaker 23: shakes and uh, you know how I net worth individuals 1737 01:34:01,760 --> 01:34:06,479 Speaker 23: and you're doing business. You're doing deals and being around 1738 01:34:07,320 --> 01:34:11,160 Speaker 23: young women for parties and things like that is a 1739 01:34:11,200 --> 01:34:14,400 Speaker 23: way to create an environment where people like hanging out 1740 01:34:14,400 --> 01:34:16,320 Speaker 23: with you and want to do deals with you. Because 1741 01:34:16,320 --> 01:34:19,400 Speaker 23: these deals last for years. They want to, they want 1742 01:34:19,439 --> 01:34:22,240 Speaker 23: to be around, They want to. They may think they 1743 01:34:22,240 --> 01:34:23,759 Speaker 23: can only get access to the deals. 1744 01:34:23,880 --> 01:34:26,360 Speaker 15: You know, if they think that the girls were a 1745 01:34:26,439 --> 01:34:28,599 Speaker 15: means to the money. The money was not a means 1746 01:34:28,640 --> 01:34:29,560 Speaker 15: to the girls. 1747 01:34:30,280 --> 01:34:33,799 Speaker 23: I think the girls were away primarily of juicing deals. 1748 01:34:34,040 --> 01:34:35,240 Speaker 14: You're more likely to do. 1749 01:34:35,160 --> 01:34:38,840 Speaker 23: Business with someone who provides you a currency you can't 1750 01:34:38,840 --> 01:34:39,560 Speaker 23: get elsewhere. 1751 01:34:39,760 --> 01:34:41,679 Speaker 14: You have these sixty seventy year old. 1752 01:34:41,560 --> 01:34:44,120 Speaker 23: Dudes who can't meet, you know, an eighteen year old 1753 01:34:44,640 --> 01:34:47,800 Speaker 23: girl at a bar anymore. Where do you meet them? Well, 1754 01:34:48,160 --> 01:34:50,640 Speaker 23: you meet them at Jeffrey Epstein's place. Hey, if I 1755 01:34:50,720 --> 01:34:53,120 Speaker 23: do this deal with Jeffrey Epstein, he can supply me 1756 01:34:53,200 --> 01:34:55,800 Speaker 23: with girls. So even though this pipeline might not be 1757 01:34:55,840 --> 01:34:58,040 Speaker 23: in my interests, you know, even if I really don't 1758 01:34:58,120 --> 01:35:00,920 Speaker 23: care about the petroleum market and ken you uh, even 1759 01:35:00,960 --> 01:35:02,519 Speaker 23: if I you know, I really don't want to sell 1760 01:35:02,560 --> 01:35:05,720 Speaker 23: guns to Antigua. You know, I know if I if 1761 01:35:05,760 --> 01:35:08,200 Speaker 23: I do this deal, then I know at a great 1762 01:35:08,240 --> 01:35:10,160 Speaker 23: time at that last party, I'd like to be included 1763 01:35:10,200 --> 01:35:13,920 Speaker 23: at the next one. And so you know, that is 1764 01:35:13,960 --> 01:35:17,120 Speaker 23: a very plause. I'm not saying definitively that's what's happening, 1765 01:35:17,400 --> 01:35:21,200 Speaker 23: that's what happened here, but that explains it in my view, 1766 01:35:21,240 --> 01:35:24,760 Speaker 23: without even having to go, you know, much farther than that. 1767 01:35:24,920 --> 01:35:27,639 Speaker 14: Because here's the thing. You don't have two O one files. 1768 01:35:27,680 --> 01:35:28,559 Speaker 14: You don't have these. 1769 01:35:29,760 --> 01:35:34,280 Speaker 23: An intelligence asset is someone who is formally recruited and 1770 01:35:34,439 --> 01:35:36,160 Speaker 23: there needs to be counterintelligence done on that. 1771 01:35:36,200 --> 01:35:37,560 Speaker 14: It's a it's a process. 1772 01:35:38,200 --> 01:35:40,960 Speaker 23: There is a there's a vast field beyond asset, and 1773 01:35:41,000 --> 01:35:48,840 Speaker 23: it's called cooperative, cooperative contact or facilitator or liaison. And 1774 01:35:48,960 --> 01:35:53,120 Speaker 23: these are the brokers because you need these brokers, these 1775 01:35:53,200 --> 01:35:55,920 Speaker 23: fall guide type figures, but who also are willing. 1776 01:35:55,640 --> 01:35:59,000 Speaker 15: To make all broker makes sense now that that's the keyword. 1777 01:35:59,080 --> 01:36:01,040 Speaker 1: Now it's it's really hit. I'm gonna keep you through 1778 01:36:01,080 --> 01:36:01,280 Speaker 1: the break. 1779 01:36:01,280 --> 01:36:03,720 Speaker 15: We're gonna end on radio and RAV ten seconds we got, 1780 01:36:03,720 --> 01:36:05,040 Speaker 15: we got uninterrupted time, Mike. 1781 01:36:05,560 --> 01:36:07,280 Speaker 14: So this is why, this is why. 1782 01:36:07,360 --> 01:36:11,519 Speaker 23: Bill Burns, the CIA director, met three times with Jeffrey Epsteine, 1783 01:36:11,520 --> 01:36:11,600 Speaker 23: the
