1 00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:24,720 Speaker 1: Good evening, America, Happy Wednesday. Welcome to the latest edition, 2 00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:27,080 Speaker 1: the day after the State of the Union edition of 3 00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:29,440 Speaker 1: the justin News No Noise TV show. I'm your host, 4 00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:32,760 Speaker 1: John Solomon, reporting to Zoeys from the Nation's Capital, and 5 00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:34,640 Speaker 1: we are going to break some big news on the show. 6 00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:36,720 Speaker 1: Some of it you may have seen. Some of it 7 00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:38,760 Speaker 1: is moving right now at justinews dot com. 8 00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:40,920 Speaker 2: Let me get to the most urgent news that just happened. 9 00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:42,200 Speaker 2: Just a few minutes ago. 10 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:46,000 Speaker 1: FBI officials confirmed to just the News that the bureau 11 00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:50,280 Speaker 1: spied on its former or its future director, Cash Mattel 12 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:52,280 Speaker 1: back when he was a private citizen in twenty two 13 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:54,760 Speaker 1: twenty three, by getting his phone records. 14 00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:55,680 Speaker 2: That's right, he. 15 00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:58,480 Speaker 1: Wasn't the only one around President Trump that happened to him. 16 00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:01,000 Speaker 1: They also did it to current WHYDOS Chief of Staff 17 00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 1: Susie Wiles. Sources telling us that both of those phone 18 00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 1: records seizures were through grand jury subpoenas and were focused 19 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 1: on allegations involving the classified documents case against President Trump. 20 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,319 Speaker 1: That's the one that eventually led to the raid at 21 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 1: mar Lago, then the appointment of Jack Smith, then the 22 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:24,680 Speaker 1: indictment of President Trump related to those documents that were 23 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 1: found at his home and then the dismissal of the case. Now, 24 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:30,839 Speaker 1: this is a pretty significant piece of information, not only 25 00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 1: because the Bureau was spying on its future leader, but 26 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:35,840 Speaker 1: also because at the end of the day, there's no 27 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:38,640 Speaker 1: evidence that cash proteller Susie Wilds did anything wrong. They 28 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 1: were never charged, they were never accused of any wrongdoing, 29 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:44,560 Speaker 1: but their phone records rifled through like now we know 30 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 1: eight or nine members of Congress, scores of targets in 31 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 1: the January sixth investigation. The dragnet of the FBI, the 32 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:57,640 Speaker 1: Justice Department, the intelligence community against all people who were 33 00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 1: conservative or associated with President Trump widens by the day, 34 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 1: the behavior of those agencies, particularly under Joe Biden, becoming 35 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 1: more troubling by the day. And on that note, a 36 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:11,080 Speaker 1: second story that I know you've probably heard about. It 37 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:13,959 Speaker 1: was trending all day on social medium. We're calling it 38 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:18,520 Speaker 1: the Fanny Files. That's right, Georgia's former prosecutor of the 39 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 1: current Fulton County District Attorney, Fanny Willis, was indeed plotting 40 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 1: all along with the Biden White House, the Biden Justice Department, 41 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 1: and the January sixth Democrat Committee to plan her case 42 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 1: against Donald Trump and his associates, those who were involved 43 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 1: in protesting election results. Now we all think in America 44 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 1: we have protection from double jeopardy, meaning we're not going 45 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 1: to be prosecuted twice for the same crimes. But what 46 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,800 Speaker 1: you see in the new documents that just The News 47 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 1: obtained with the help of the America First Legal Institute, 48 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:54,800 Speaker 1: tremendous public interest law firm. We spent three years fighting 49 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 1: for these documents. Fannie Willis claimed they were privileged, claimed 50 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:01,119 Speaker 1: they should be redacted, claimed we weren't titled. We ultimately 51 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:03,120 Speaker 1: won them eight thousand. 52 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 2: Pages in all. You got to see you them in 53 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 2: this morning is. 54 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,399 Speaker 1: At the bind White House worked with Fenny Willis and said, listen, 55 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:10,800 Speaker 1: we'll pierce President Trump's executive primage. 56 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 2: You can have anything you want. Now. That's very rare. 57 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 1: Executive privilege is almost never pierced for a state prosecution 58 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 1: or state civil case. Secondly, the Justice Department said, you 59 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 1: want access to our people, no problem, We'll sign two 60 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:25,640 Speaker 1: agreements and allow you to get our best people to 61 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,679 Speaker 1: testify before your state grand journ. Then the January sixth 62 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 1: Committee said, come on down, get any documents you want, 63 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,680 Speaker 1: any videos you want will help you make the case 64 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 1: that happens. Then, as you're going to learn tomorrow, Fanny 65 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 1: Willis's office was offered a grant. Literally the Justice Department said, hey, 66 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 1: just apply for this grant. We'll give it to you 67 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 1: as a sole source. 68 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 2: All right. 69 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 1: So some money is exchanging during the same timeframe. And 70 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: then Jack Smith brings his federal case against Donald Trump, 71 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: and then right after it, Fenny Willis, just a few 72 00:03:56,240 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 1: weeks later, brings a state case, basically double jeopardizing Donald 73 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: Trump and all of his colleagues in these cases. 74 00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:05,680 Speaker 2: Double draining the legal. 75 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 1: Resources and the reputational stock that those people had by 76 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: twice indicting them and then creating a dual barrel investigation 77 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:18,279 Speaker 1: and prosecution. Now, at the end of the day, both 78 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,880 Speaker 1: cases ended up getting dismissed, as you know, but millions 79 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,839 Speaker 1: of dollars in legal bills were spent, reputations were ruined, 80 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:30,159 Speaker 1: And now we're seeing a triumphrent, a triple headed siren 81 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:35,039 Speaker 1: working together Congressional Democrats, Justice Department in White House under 82 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 1: Biden working with a Democrat prosecutor in Georgia to create 83 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 1: that scenario. Pretty significant, and Serre' stuff, lots of people 84 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: reacting to that. 85 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:44,360 Speaker 2: We're going to kick off the show in a. 86 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:47,040 Speaker 1: Few minutes with Chairman Barry Loudhem, like the man overseeing 87 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,360 Speaker 1: the January sixth investigation, this surprises him. 88 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:51,040 Speaker 2: He's going to give us his very latest. 89 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:53,719 Speaker 1: But before we do that, my amazing colleague Amanda Hedge, 90 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 1: she covered that very long, very entertaining speech last night 91 00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 1: by President Trump. 92 00:04:58,440 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 2: You got some day after thoughts about it. 93 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 3: Indeed, I do it. 94 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 4: I published them this morning at about twelve something, middle of. 95 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 3: The night, after my poor editor stayed up late to 96 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 3: work on it. 97 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 4: But I do want to focus for a moment on 98 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:15,279 Speaker 4: the president's address. And while some Democrats chose to boycott 99 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 4: the speech, altogether, several top party leaders we're in attendance, 100 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 4: including Senate Minority Leader Chalk Schumer, Congresswoman Ilhan Omer, former 101 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 4: Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and a Minority leader Hakim Jeffreys, and 102 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 4: I want to highlight what may have been the sharpest 103 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 4: moment of the night where the President directly addresses both 104 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,839 Speaker 4: Democrats and Republicans. He looks at both parties and he 105 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 4: calls on them to stand if they believe that the 106 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 4: primary duty of the American government is to protect American citizens, 107 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:44,720 Speaker 4: not illegal aliens. 108 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:45,200 Speaker 3: Take a look. 109 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 5: So tonight, I'm inviting every legislature to join with my 110 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,279 Speaker 5: administration and reaffirming a fundamental principle. 111 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 2: If you agree with this. 112 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 5: Statement, then stand up and show your support to first 113 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 5: do of the American government is to protect American citizens, 114 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 5: not illegal areas. 115 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 4: That image, of course, spoke louder than any campaign ad 116 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:41,480 Speaker 4: ever could. On live national television. The American people saw 117 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 4: exactly where each party stands or doesn't stand. Such a 118 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 4: smart move from the president, but also a little bit risky, 119 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 4: and I'm going to talk about that in the moment. 120 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:52,279 Speaker 4: So what's the Democrat's response to why they decided to 121 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:55,479 Speaker 4: boycott the president's address and refuse to stand for the 122 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:56,720 Speaker 4: president's accomplishments. 123 00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,279 Speaker 3: Here is Democrat Senator Jeff Murkley. 124 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 6: I'm an authoritarian proceeds to try to destroy a democratic 125 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 6: republic and turn it into a strong men's state. You 126 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 6: need a high level of citizen protests and resistance. Otherwise 127 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 6: people think it's just acceptable and normal. And the next 128 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 6: election really matters, because if the president succeeds in rigging 129 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 6: the next election, which he's trying to do. Then we 130 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 6: can get an enduring, strong men's state, and everything that 131 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 6: we've honored and fought for for two hundred years is 132 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 6: destroyed and we. 133 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:32,240 Speaker 2: Can't let that happen. 134 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 4: That has literally nothing to do with what the President said. 135 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 4: And I think it's hard to understand how the Democrats 136 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 4: relate the President's America First Agenda to authoritarianism. Since when 137 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:47,119 Speaker 4: is putting your own citizens first considered authoritarianism? But next, 138 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 4: are tariffs really hurting our economy like democrats and liberal 139 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 4: media suggest. Here's jameson Greer, our US trade representative, giving 140 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 4: us the truth on that. 141 00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 7: Every month from April through December twenty twenty five, the 142 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 7: trade goods went down year on year. 143 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 2: That's exactly what happened. 144 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 7: So from April to December, the trade deficit and goods 145 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 7: went down by seventeen percent percent. When we look at it, 146 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 7: you know, is the trade policy working. We're looking at 147 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 7: the direction the trend in the trade deficit, so that's. 148 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 2: Going the right way. 149 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 4: Seventeen percent drop in the goods trade deficit since April 150 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 4: twenty twenty five is no accident. This is a result 151 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 4: of President Trump's policies at work. It's a shame that 152 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 4: the Democrats disliked President Trump so much that it clouds 153 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:31,679 Speaker 4: their judgment. But John, I want to ask you about 154 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:33,440 Speaker 4: this moment that we just showed a few moments ago 155 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 4: with President Trump, because that was a risky move because 156 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 4: Democrats could have stood up and said, you know, we're 157 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 4: not crazy like you say that we are, but they 158 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 4: couldn't help themselves. 159 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 3: They sat down. President Trump gambled, right, Oh yeah, I 160 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:46,319 Speaker 3: think it's a safe bet. 161 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 2: It wasn't too risky. I mean, we kind of see 162 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:48,719 Speaker 2: it every day. 163 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:48,959 Speaker 3: Right. 164 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 1: They can't applaud a young girl that survives a horrific 165 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 1: traffic accident. They can't stand for a secure border, a 166 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 1: safe city, a balanced budget. 167 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 2: They can't stand. Yeah, they just can't do it. 168 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:04,319 Speaker 1: And I thought what the President did was he created 169 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 1: the fulcrum upon which the twenty twenty sixth election now. 170 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:08,080 Speaker 2: Will be debated. 171 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 1: You're either a patriot who believes in these things and 172 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 1: celebrate America's two undred fiftieth birthday with pride and joy 173 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 1: and appreciation for American exceptionalism was the President put on, 174 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,559 Speaker 1: or you're a hatreot someone that thinks America's history is 175 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 1: embarrassing that we should bend our need to global interests. 176 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 1: And we don't applaud for survivors of victims. We don't 177 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 1: celebrate our heroes, and by golly, we don't celebrate a 178 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 1: clothes border, a decline in crime, and success on the 179 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:41,319 Speaker 1: foreign stage. Patriots versus hatriots. That's the twenty twenty. 180 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 3: Sixth a headline tomorrow along those lines. 181 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 1: I think someone's going to do that now, all right, 182 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 1: speaking of patriots and the importance of what we've learned. 183 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:52,560 Speaker 1: Much of what we learned about January sixth before we 184 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:57,439 Speaker 1: got these documents from Fanny Wills's files, came from our 185 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 1: first guest tonight.

He was willing 189 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 1: to dial in because this story so big. Have a 190 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,240 Speaker 1: listen to what we talked about, all right, folks, Getting 191 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:13,520 Speaker 1: back to the conversation at the top of the show, Yes, 192 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: the Fanny files very important stuff. 193 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:16,959 Speaker 2: Joining us now. 194 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 1: The chairman of the House Select Subcommittee that it's been 195 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,960 Speaker 1: looking at January sixth, and all the Sandigans that went 196 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 1: around it. He also represents the great state of Georgia. 197 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: Chairman Very Loud of Molks, Sir, good to have you 198 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 1: on the show. 199 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:31,880 Speaker 8: It's good to be with you on the road today. 200 00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 8: But hey, this is so important it's worth making a stop. 201 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 2: We are grateful that you're with us. 202 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 1: You had this right you right for the moment you 203 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,440 Speaker 1: started the JAY six investigation. For Republicans, you had a 204 00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:48,200 Speaker 1: suspicion at the Biden White House, the Biden Justice Department 205 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:50,319 Speaker 1: of the JA six Democrats. Well, well they were in 206 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,560 Speaker 1: bed with all the states that we're trying to be 207 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:57,200 Speaker 1: junior cases to Jack Smith. When you look at these documents, now, 208 00:10:57,240 --> 00:10:58,680 Speaker 1: what's your top line assessment? 209 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,480 Speaker 2: Worse than we thought, I think. 210 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 9: So. 211 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 8: The first inclination that we had that there was some 212 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 8: type of coordination was during the previous investigation in the 213 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:13,360 Speaker 8: hundred eighteenth Congress. I came across a loan document buried 214 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:18,080 Speaker 8: in some of the documents that they did preserve, and 215 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 8: it was, in my opinion, something they probably forgot to 216 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 8: take out, but it was a letter from Fannie Willis 217 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 8: to Chairman Thompson asking about him sharing some specific documents. 218 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 10: Of course, when I asked the chairman about it. 219 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 8: He didn't recall anything or if they provided documents, even 220 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 8: though in their final report it referenced documents that they 221 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:42,560 Speaker 8: gave them. My issue is I want to know what 222 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 8: they gave them, you know, and that's where I think 223 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 8: our next step. 224 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,440 Speaker 2: Is very important. 225 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 3: Chairman, you have such an intro. 226 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 4: You're at an amazing intersection because you're from Georgia, so 227 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:57,559 Speaker 4: you're intimately familiar with her record and her behavior in Georgia. 228 00:11:57,600 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 4: But you also obviously chaired up the committee that's looking 229 00:11:59,880 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 4: at to this. What it says to me that there 230 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:04,840 Speaker 4: was so much close coordination between what should have been 231 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 4: two separate investigations is that they were willing to pin 232 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 4: anything on anyone for any reason, even if they weren't 233 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:14,079 Speaker 4: present at the time or had any involvement at all. 234 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 10: They were so desperate. 235 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 8: I mean, when you go back and you look at 236 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:20,200 Speaker 8: this from a thirty five thousand foot level, they were 237 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:24,080 Speaker 8: so desperate to pend this on Republicans and specifically Donald Trump, 238 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,199 Speaker 8: because if you go back you look at the Select 239 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:29,080 Speaker 8: Committee on January sixth, their goal was to make sure 240 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:32,320 Speaker 8: Donald Trump never held political office again, and if they 241 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,160 Speaker 8: could have put him in jail, they would have. 242 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:37,079 Speaker 10: But where we are right now. 243 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:40,719 Speaker 8: We're seeing that that was broader than just a Select committee. 244 00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 8: Of course, Fanie Willis was she was so desperate to 245 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 8: prosecute and imprison other people associated with Trump. They were willing, 246 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:54,200 Speaker 8: and we had the Biden White House going along with it, 247 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 8: changing precedent that had ruled documents for centuries in this country, 248 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 8: right executive privilege, and they were so desperate to find something. 249 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 8: And this is John, Amanda, this is what strikes me 250 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 8: is this tells me they weren't finding enough. They weren't 251 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 8: finding enough to actually do what they were trying to do, 252 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,959 Speaker 8: so they were getting more desperate. And the same thing 253 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:20,720 Speaker 8: with Finie Willis, she was so desperate, she was willing 254 00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:24,200 Speaker 8: to do whatever, even coordinating with Select Committee on January sixth, 255 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,160 Speaker 8: and some of the documentation that we're finding was late 256 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:33,720 Speaker 8: in the Select Committee's process, predominantly, meaning they had already 257 00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 8: constructed their narrative. You know, they filed their final report 258 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 8: in December of twenty twenty two. 259 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:40,760 Speaker 10: And this is when we really see a lot of. 260 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:45,960 Speaker 8: Coordination happening between the two because they know that there's 261 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 8: only a few weeks left before the Republicans take over, 262 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:51,959 Speaker 8: so they really have to get documentation and then start 263 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,520 Speaker 8: working with the Biden administration since they were going to 264 00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 8: actually continue on for two more years. 265 00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:59,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, no doubt about it. 266 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:05,200 Speaker 1: We look at the J sixth collusion between the Biden 267 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:09,560 Speaker 1: White House, the Biden Justice Department, and J six and 268 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:13,839 Speaker 1: these local state prosecutors in the larger light of weaponization. 269 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:17,680 Speaker 1: In our system and our Fourth Amendment protected judicial system, 270 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 1: you're supposed to be protected from double jeopardy, meaning you 271 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 1: don't get charged for the same kinds and two different jurisdictions. 272 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 1: But it looks like that's what the Democrats are trying 273 00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 1: to do, which is to not only create to create 274 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:33,120 Speaker 1: jeopardy in two places for defendants maybe to break their 275 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 1: bank or break their will, but also to just drain 276 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 1: the resources and the attention span of their lawyers and others. 277 00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 1: Does this ability for Georgia to bring essentially the same 278 00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:46,160 Speaker 1: Jack Smith case as the federal case, but in a 279 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 1: different jurisdiction far from Washington. 280 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:49,880 Speaker 2: Does this look. 281 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:52,479 Speaker 1: To you like a form of abuse and what reforms 282 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 1: could potentially be ahead that we should look at the 283 00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 1: Justice Department, the FBI, and other places to prevent this 284 00:14:57,840 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 1: in the future. 285 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:03,360 Speaker 8: It does have the appearance of double jeopardy. But you 286 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:05,000 Speaker 8: got to go back and you look at what their 287 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 8: goal was. Their goal was to put this, as they 288 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 8: called active insurrection on the shoulders of Republicans. That's why 289 00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 8: they came after me with some fictitious claim that I 290 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 8: led the insurrectionists on reconnaissance tours. And by the way, 291 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 8: as much as they use insurrection, and even in these 292 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:28,840 Speaker 8: documents the word insurrection is used, there was not a 293 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 8: single person that was ever indicted or even the charges 294 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:37,040 Speaker 8: of insurrection brought up on them. So as much as 295 00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:40,080 Speaker 8: it hues, it's interesting that they didn't even try to 296 00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 8: apply that to anyone there. But your question plays back 297 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 8: to their desperation to pin this on Republicans. 298 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:50,000 Speaker 10: If they can't get it one way, let's get it another. 299 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 8: Let's just throw everything against the wall and hope that 300 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 8: something sticks. As far as what we're going to have 301 00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:58,120 Speaker 8: to do about it, we need to really look at 302 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 8: from Congress. 303 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:02,120 Speaker 10: We need to look at how. 304 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 8: The Department of Justice, even Congress has been used in 305 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 8: weaponizing We see it happening right now. I mean, if 306 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:13,800 Speaker 8: you look at the dysfunction of Congress, it's because we're 307 00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 8: so focused on using legislation as a tool to beat 308 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:20,520 Speaker 8: the other side up instead of finding what can we 309 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 8: agree on we need to fix this for the betterment 310 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:26,000 Speaker 8: of the country. They start looking at especially the Democrats, 311 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:27,640 Speaker 8: and you saw this last night in the State of 312 00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 8: the Union. They couldn't stand for anything. Their hatred for 313 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 8: Trump is so great. They wouldn't even stand to acknowledge 314 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 8: a young girl who was severely injured by an illegal alia. 315 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:43,280 Speaker 8: And it isn't that they don't care about the girl, 316 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,600 Speaker 8: It's just they hate Trump so much more. And this 317 00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 8: is what was driving the Finnie Willis's, the Liz Cheney's, 318 00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 8: everyone who in Jack Smith was just their disdain for 319 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:57,000 Speaker 8: Donald Trump and Republicans. So we really have to look 320 00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,280 Speaker 8: at it through Congress, through the eyes of what can 321 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 8: we do to stop this weaponization and bring more accountability. 322 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 8: Because I've even found out now that even the Department 323 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:10,159 Speaker 8: of Justice was looking into some areas that I was 324 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:12,040 Speaker 8: not aware they were looking in. I knew that it's 325 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:16,159 Speaker 8: a select Commado. In January sixth, they were looking into 326 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:20,200 Speaker 8: members of Congress. It appears now and I'm talking about 327 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:23,720 Speaker 8: members of the House that Arctic Frost was even delving 328 00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 8: in looking at members of Congress regarding January sixth. 329 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:31,000 Speaker 4: Wow, mister chairman, I think a lot of people agree 330 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 4: with you that there's got to be another look at 331 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 4: how this is done. Would that also include examining and 332 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:39,199 Speaker 4: possibly rejiggering the processes, because we do have processes in 333 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:42,439 Speaker 4: this country for document collection, and when it comes to 334 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 4: an investigation of state investigation in Georgia, bypassing Congress just 335 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:50,000 Speaker 4: going straight to the DOJ to get these documents to 336 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 4: coordinate that seems like a gross abuse of power. 337 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:58,960 Speaker 8: It is because these are congressional documents. Okay, they were 338 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:02,720 Speaker 8: looking for document or were collected through the process of 339 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 8: the Select Committee on January sixth, Pelosi's committee at least 340 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:10,200 Speaker 8: the documents that they count. And this is another question 341 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:13,359 Speaker 8: I have because we know, as my committee has proven, 342 00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:18,440 Speaker 8: that any document that didn't uphold their predetermined narrative, those 343 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:22,600 Speaker 8: just seemed to disappear. They were not made public in 344 00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 8: this way. I want to know what did they give 345 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:27,680 Speaker 8: Fannie Willis. Did they give her everything? I can bet 346 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:29,920 Speaker 8: you they didn't give her the documents that they wanted 347 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,320 Speaker 8: to make sure never saw the light of day. Right, 348 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:38,159 Speaker 8: But the fact that these documents were shared in the 349 00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:40,200 Speaker 8: way they were with the Department of Justice, and then 350 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,040 Speaker 8: the Department of Justice shared them. 351 00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:44,880 Speaker 10: That's a huge problem. It was the same problem I. 352 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:47,159 Speaker 8: Had is when we found out that House documents were 353 00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:50,360 Speaker 8: sent to the White House and Homeland Security for them 354 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 8: to archive, not the House. This is what the Select 355 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 8: Committee did to keep us from finding those documents. And 356 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:59,480 Speaker 8: so it is a huge problem when it comes to 357 00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:01,800 Speaker 8: document management that has to be fixed. 358 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:04,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, so important. 359 00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:06,399 Speaker 1: One last question for you, sir before we let you 360 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 1: go tomorrow. These same documents are going to show that 361 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:12,920 Speaker 1: as Fanny Wells was coordinating with the Biden White House 362 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:15,399 Speaker 1: to get executive privilege wave and get the Justice Department 363 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 1: to give two E exceptions so that federal workers could 364 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:20,879 Speaker 1: come testify in there and get the documents from the 365 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 1: J six Committee, that the Biden Justice Department dangle to 366 00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:30,240 Speaker 1: Financial Care, basically offering and inviting Fannie Wells's office to 367 00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:33,680 Speaker 1: apply for what they called a soul source grant, meaning 368 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:36,120 Speaker 1: a grant that would ultimately not have any competition because 369 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:36,880 Speaker 1: they were the only. 370 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 2: One able to get it. 371 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:40,880 Speaker 1: What should we be concerned about that and what might 372 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:42,119 Speaker 1: you look into on that. 373 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 10: Well money talks. 374 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 8: We always look at the money and where the money 375 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:49,159 Speaker 8: flows and what was that money that used for, Especially 376 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 8: if the grant was given and I'm just speculating here, 377 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:55,160 Speaker 8: but if the grant was given to enhance her investigation 378 00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:59,639 Speaker 8: into Trump, that's that's a real significant problem as far 379 00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 8: as I concerned. And one other thing about the way 380 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:09,639 Speaker 8: the documents are handled and the exemption from certain documents. 381 00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:13,680 Speaker 8: We have to make sure that the law applies equally 382 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 8: to everyone. If you go back and you look at 383 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 8: several programs that Obama was involved in, this executive privilege. 384 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:23,800 Speaker 10: Was not waived, it was upheld. 385 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:28,639 Speaker 8: This was for Biden administration to waive executive privilege for 386 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:32,639 Speaker 8: Trump's documents. That was unprecedented and it could have a 387 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 8: significant change forever in this country. So we have to 388 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:40,919 Speaker 8: get back to a place to where justice means equal 389 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,760 Speaker 8: application of the law to everyone, regardless of party. 390 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:46,919 Speaker 2: Such a great point they waived. 391 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:50,320 Speaker 1: The president's executive A current president waves a past president's 392 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 1: executive privilege for a state case, not even a federal case, 393 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:56,439 Speaker 1: not even a national case, but a state case. Pretty remarkable, 394 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,040 Speaker 1: mister Chairman. We would not know half of what we 395 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:01,040 Speaker 1: know about the truth or andry six. If it weren't 396 00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 1: for your determined efforts, I have a funny feel and 397 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:04,639 Speaker 1: we're going to learn a lot more based out of 398 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:06,439 Speaker 1: the things we talked about, tab But great to have 399 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:08,119 Speaker 1: in your show. Always an honor to talk with you. 400 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:10,960 Speaker 8: Well, thank you, and again people wouldn't know it unless 401 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:12,560 Speaker 8: you were out there willing to share it. 402 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:15,600 Speaker 2: Thank you, Sarah. Very kind of you to say so. 403 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,200 Speaker 2: All right, folks, we got a lot more ahead for you. 404 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:21,400 Speaker 2: About first the quick commercial breaking back right after these messages. 405 00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 9: Welcome back everybody. 406 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:34,119 Speaker 4: As we have been discussing, the President gave a remarkable 407 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:37,320 Speaker 4: speech last night, just barely a year into his second term, 408 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:39,879 Speaker 4: he has completely turned the economy around. 409 00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:40,720 Speaker 3: The economy is. 410 00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:44,200 Speaker 4: Beginning to roar, our borders are finally secure, and now 411 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 4: the President is fighting to bring back fair elections. 412 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 3: So here are a few questions. 413 00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 4: Why is iron accusing the president of big lies following 414 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:55,080 Speaker 4: his State of the Union speech? And as the US 415 00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:58,640 Speaker 4: Iran conflict continues to escalate, what's next for the administration 416 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:01,560 Speaker 4: and our national sitek So Joining us to discuss this 417 00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 4: and more is former Senior Advisor to Secretary of War 418 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 4: Pete heg Seth Justin Fulcher desin, thanks so much for being. 419 00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 2: Here, Thanks for having me. 420 00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:13,399 Speaker 4: All right, So I actually want to ask you about 421 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:17,280 Speaker 4: something that someone else said, not President Trump. Last night, 422 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 4: after CINNIM minority leader Chuck Schumer was briefed by Secretary Rubio, 423 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:25,960 Speaker 4: he spoke to the press very very briefly. He didn't 424 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:29,200 Speaker 4: provide any criticism of President Trump or what he heard. 425 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:32,199 Speaker 4: He just said, this is very serious. The president is 426 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:35,359 Speaker 4: going to have to make his case to the American people. 427 00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:39,200 Speaker 4: I was very surprised by, first of all, how abbreviated 428 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 4: his response was to the media, what do you think, 429 00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:44,679 Speaker 4: what do you think his thought is when it comes 430 00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:46,360 Speaker 4: to what the president is proposing, and what. 431 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:46,959 Speaker 3: Do you think that is? 432 00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 11: Well, I think it is, he summarized, Well, I mean 433 00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 11: President Trump is of course weighing all the options on 434 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:58,200 Speaker 11: the table, from a diplomacy to military and kinetic actions. 435 00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 11: And I think Trumer stated very succinctly, this is a 436 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,479 Speaker 11: complicated situation, and there are a lot of different courses 437 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 11: of actions. But ultimately I think it's a good sign 438 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:12,160 Speaker 11: that while the situation is complex, it's a hot tip 439 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:14,440 Speaker 11: to President Trump for handling out with ease. 440 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 1: So Justin one of the things that we're seeing in 441 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 1: the media or reports that China wants to get hypersonic 442 00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 1: missiles to Iran to make it tougher for US to attack. 443 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:29,639 Speaker 1: We see some reports of concerns about biological weapons programs. 444 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:32,040 Speaker 1: We might not have known about our chemical weapons programs. 445 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:35,840 Speaker 1: And then there's always the lingering and always concerning worry 446 00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 1: about nuclear weapons, though we probably set that back a 447 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 1: big way in the July operation last year. Are there 448 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:48,840 Speaker 1: concerns on the ground that Iran may have some capabilities 449 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 1: or some things up their sleeve that could be disturbing 450 00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:54,920 Speaker 1: to Americans beyond what we already know about them. 451 00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 11: Well, I think Iran has shown that they do have 452 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:02,800 Speaker 11: capable abilities that could be very threatening to the United 453 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:05,359 Speaker 11: States and our allies. I mean, whether it's you know, 454 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,560 Speaker 11: the enrichment of uranium and their nuclear program, but also 455 00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:12,080 Speaker 11: you know, in other areas that you mentioned and alluded to. 456 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:15,560 Speaker 11: I think ultimately we need to take these reports seriously. 457 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:18,720 Speaker 11: And President Trump has been very clear from the beginning 458 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:22,399 Speaker 11: that he means business when he talks about you know, 459 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 11: both you know, stopping the nuclear program, but ultimately you know, 460 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:30,960 Speaker 11: ensuring that that doesn't continue, and whether there are other threats, 461 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:34,719 Speaker 11: like you know, biological or others. I think we cannot 462 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:37,119 Speaker 11: underestimate what Iran is capable of, and we need to 463 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:38,240 Speaker 11: take those threats seriously. 464 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 4: Good well in, China's not the only game in town 465 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:45,159 Speaker 4: who has been trying to help Iran. Venezuela well was 466 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 4: not anymore since our extraction. Nicholas Manderia, I think we 467 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:51,520 Speaker 4: all thought knew that this was going to negatively impact Iran, 468 00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 4: and it did in the aftermath. Is it still Is 469 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:57,359 Speaker 4: it still negatively impacting them? 470 00:24:57,480 --> 00:24:57,640 Speaker 3: Well? 471 00:24:57,640 --> 00:24:58,160 Speaker 2: I think so. 472 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:01,639 Speaker 11: I think Venezuela was a very good signal, and our 473 00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:05,680 Speaker 11: successful operation there showed that even with Russian and Chinese 474 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:10,160 Speaker 11: capabilities on the ground, no country is safe from American 475 00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 11: military power. And I think that's a lesson that Iran 476 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:16,160 Speaker 11: has certainly taken to heart. And I think any country 477 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 11: that aligns with China or Russia that we saw firsthand 478 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:23,679 Speaker 11: how the US military was able to overcome any of 479 00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:26,359 Speaker 11: those capabilities, and I think Iran would be no different. 480 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:31,919 Speaker 1: Justin one of the questions would be all right, It 481 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:34,480 Speaker 1: was clear what the mission for the military was last July, 482 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:37,439 Speaker 1: and that was to neutralize and set back by years 483 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 1: the nuclear weapons program. If we fail at negotiation or 484 00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 1: if Iran refuses, we shouldn't say we failed. But if 485 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:48,200 Speaker 1: Iran refuses negotiate meaningfully and we do take military action. 486 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:51,760 Speaker 1: Is the stated goal going to be a regime change 487 00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:54,119 Speaker 1: and we're done with this, We're going to create the 488 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:57,159 Speaker 1: circumstances by which the Iranian people can overthrow their mothers? 489 00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:58,240 Speaker 2: Will that be the stated goal? 490 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:03,600 Speaker 11: You think, Well, President Trumps has said a lot of things, 491 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:06,480 Speaker 11: but regime change has not been a core focus at all. 492 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:10,479 Speaker 11: It's always been a focus on the nuclear program in Iran, 493 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:13,280 Speaker 11: and also you know, more recently the killing of innocent 494 00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:16,760 Speaker 11: civilians that we're protesting against the Iranian regime. So I 495 00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:19,639 Speaker 11: think while there's lots of discussion about regime change, I 496 00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:23,160 Speaker 11: think ultimately the objective stays the same, which is, under 497 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:27,200 Speaker 11: no circumstances should Iran be allowed to develop nuclear weapons 498 00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:30,560 Speaker 11: or advanced nuclear capabilities. And last time we saw with 499 00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 11: Operation Midnight Hammer, those were very limited and precise precision strikes, 500 00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:39,400 Speaker 11: but ultimately perhaps a broader military campaign would be required. 501 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:41,720 Speaker 11: But ultimately I think the objectives remain the same. 502 00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:46,840 Speaker 4: Would another strike like what we saw last July? Would 503 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:49,639 Speaker 4: would that be the nail in the coffin for the Ayatola, 504 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:51,679 Speaker 4: because it certainly, I mean, they're like cockroaches. 505 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:52,400 Speaker 3: You can't blow them out. 506 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:57,600 Speaker 11: With the apocalypse, it certainly seems like they're quite resilient. 507 00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:01,040 Speaker 11: But I think they're definitely on the back. And as 508 00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:04,680 Speaker 11: we've seen, those strikes were incredibly effective, and I could 509 00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 11: only imagine what Iran is thinking right now with the 510 00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:12,200 Speaker 11: very limited strikes last time, but imagine, you know, five, 511 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:16,880 Speaker 11: ten x even greater military capabilities that could be deployed. 512 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:21,040 Speaker 11: We've seen F twenty two's deployed to Israel, and we've 513 00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 11: seen one of the largest military deployments in recent history 514 00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 11: throughout the region. So I think it's very clear that 515 00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:31,159 Speaker 11: President Trump is preparing for all situations. And while we 516 00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:34,640 Speaker 11: can't count Iran out, they are an adversary and they 517 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:37,600 Speaker 11: do have real capabilities that could cause harm to Americans, 518 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 11: our American military might is incredibly strong and prepared for 519 00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:43,240 Speaker 11: all of those contendencies. 520 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:45,800 Speaker 2: Sir, before we let you go. 521 00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:50,639 Speaker 1: After the bungled failed withdrawal from Afghanistan, so many people 522 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:55,480 Speaker 1: in our military who served felt depressed, They felt ashamed 523 00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 1: a little bit. They wondered if their service had met 524 00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:02,639 Speaker 1: anything in that twenty year war. Last night, the exceptional 525 00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:05,080 Speaker 1: heroism that was honored time and again for the men 526 00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 1: and women of the uniform was so poignant. How important 527 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 1: was that for the morale and for the future leaders 528 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:15,240 Speaker 1: of the military to see a commander in chief embrace 529 00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:18,160 Speaker 1: greatness and heroism where it occurs almost all the time 530 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:19,120 Speaker 1: in our great military. 531 00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:24,600 Speaker 11: I think it was incredibly important and then just such 532 00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:28,040 Speaker 11: a humbling thing to witness of how the President just 533 00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:31,199 Speaker 11: honored these great warriors. I mean, these are folks that 534 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 11: are completely silent professionals, operating behind the scenes. They're definitely, 535 00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:38,400 Speaker 11: you know, not seeking it for the public glory. But 536 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:41,360 Speaker 11: I think President Trump incorporating that into the State of 537 00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:43,960 Speaker 11: the Union was such a powerful reminder not just for 538 00:28:44,040 --> 00:28:47,600 Speaker 11: the American military, but for the American people on how 539 00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 11: important our way of life is because of those willing 540 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:53,600 Speaker 11: to put their lives on the line to protect our 541 00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:54,959 Speaker 11: freedom at home and abroad. 542 00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:59,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, Deessin, we love having your perspective here. For Repentagon 543 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,960 Speaker 4: official and senior advisor to Secretary of Work Pete Haig 544 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:04,040 Speaker 4: Sethestin Pulchru. 545 00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:06,360 Speaker 3: Thanks so much for being with us tonight. Thank you 546 00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:08,600 Speaker 3: absolutely all right, everybody. 547 00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:11,320 Speaker 4: Coming up next, we continue our discussion on Iran and 548 00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:14,880 Speaker 4: what the administration can do to support veterans across America 549 00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:15,720 Speaker 4: and more, Stay. 550 00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:30,640 Speaker 1: Too, Welcome back in America. We're going to stay in 551 00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 1: America's favorite five sided building, YEP, the Pentagon, where the 552 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 1: new War Department is making such remarkable change. You saw 553 00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 1: the President celebrating that last night. With all the successes 554 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:43,520 Speaker 1: from procurement reform to refocusing on a war fighting to 555 00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:48,240 Speaker 1: getting to the next generation of weaponry and capability, Secretary 556 00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 1: Pete Head accept has made an enormous, enormous change in 557 00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:53,640 Speaker 1: such a short period of time. His former deputy Chief 558 00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:55,200 Speaker 1: of Staff is here to join us. We love him 559 00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:57,320 Speaker 1: every time he comes on the show. Darren SELINGK Darren, 560 00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:57,760 Speaker 1: great to. 561 00:29:57,680 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 12: Have you, Great to be on, Thanks for having me on. 562 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:03,400 Speaker 1: Some of my sources tell me that in the discussions 563 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 1: in the last few days, there's been some concern that 564 00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:08,160 Speaker 1: China might move some hypersonic missiles to Iran to give 565 00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:10,239 Speaker 1: them a better chance to embarrass the United States or 566 00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 1: attack back. It's a reminder that a few years ago 567 00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 1: we were a quite a bit behind on hypersonic missiles. 568 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:18,719 Speaker 1: I know we're starting to catch up and Pete Hexcess 569 00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:21,280 Speaker 1: is moving quicker. But when we look at that moment, 570 00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 1: how much were we set back by the Biden administration's 571 00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:26,800 Speaker 1: failed to focus on future warfare fighting. 572 00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:28,760 Speaker 13: Well, when we came in there and I was there 573 00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:33,120 Speaker 13: from day one, what a disaster. So people say, hey, 574 00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:35,240 Speaker 13: how can we get rid of these generals? They were 575 00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:36,080 Speaker 13: like beer cud generals. 576 00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:36,800 Speaker 2: They weren't warfighters. 577 00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:38,479 Speaker 12: That's why we have General Dan Kane is doing a 578 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:39,160 Speaker 12: wonderful job. 579 00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 13: So we got Mike Duffie over in heading up acquisitions 580 00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:45,440 Speaker 13: under secretary, but whether it was acquisitions of hypersonic missiles 581 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:49,200 Speaker 13: or military healthcare system, everything had just gone laid to 582 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:52,560 Speaker 13: waste for four years. They were more interested in DEI 583 00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 13: and Woke, which is some of the stuff that I 584 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:56,640 Speaker 13: handled when I was doing the personnel before it came 585 00:30:56,680 --> 00:31:00,720 Speaker 13: deputy chief of Staff. And so anything things that Hexath 586 00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:04,960 Speaker 13: has done is like cut the bureaucracy, cut the excuses, 587 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:08,040 Speaker 13: get it done, and get it done now. And I 588 00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 13: gotta tell you, if if we had tried to do 589 00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:14,240 Speaker 13: the Iran raid that we did or potential that we're 590 00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 13: looking for during Biden, I don't think they could have 591 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:16,920 Speaker 13: done it. 592 00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:19,600 Speaker 12: We inherited. Does that. 593 00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 13: I mean it would have been like the Jimmy Carter thing. 594 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:23,600 Speaker 13: But we got rid of the well everyone has laser 595 00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 13: focused on being warriors and and and re establishing that 596 00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:30,640 Speaker 13: warrior I think, and and so that is why we 597 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 13: had successful it. That's why we have successful Venezuela. Those 598 00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:36,640 Speaker 13: are the things that I would have been doubtful, you know, 599 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:40,360 Speaker 13: two years ago, three years ago. I mean, you know, 600 00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 13: the previous chairman was a nice guy, but he was 601 00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:46,800 Speaker 13: an administrator. He was not a He's not a general patent, 602 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:49,000 Speaker 13: not a Worry, not a Dan Kane. And so that's 603 00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:50,840 Speaker 13: what we had to get that warrior ethic. 604 00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 12: And we have to have leadership. 605 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:55,160 Speaker 13: You know, I'm retired Military Air Force. If you don't 606 00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 13: have the leadership, you don't have nothing. And you know, 607 00:31:57,880 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 13: there's an old joke that there's a reason there's a 608 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:04,480 Speaker 13: river between Dodd, you know Dow. So you know, they 609 00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,360 Speaker 13: were like getting rid of that river. They're just making 610 00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:09,040 Speaker 13: another federal agency. Can't have that. You don't have a 611 00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 13: second chance. 612 00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 2: That's a good point, great one. 613 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:15,600 Speaker 4: When a company refuses to innovate, that's when their competitors 614 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:17,880 Speaker 4: step in and they really you know, step on the gas. 615 00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:19,160 Speaker 3: It's the same thing with military. 616 00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:22,320 Speaker 4: When militaries don't innovate, that's when you see our competition. 617 00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:24,880 Speaker 4: But also that's when you see conflict cropping up, as 618 00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:28,160 Speaker 4: we did during the Biden administration. How far behind are 619 00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:30,360 Speaker 4: we when it comes to innovation, I know, you know 620 00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:32,960 Speaker 4: obviously the hypersonic missiles, the F forty seven, which I 621 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 4: was in the Oval Office to see the unveiling of. 622 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:37,320 Speaker 4: We're desperately trying to catch up, but it seems like there's. 623 00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 3: A lot to do. 624 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,280 Speaker 13: Well there is why do you you can't undo four 625 00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:43,680 Speaker 13: years in one year. But we've made great strides. My son, 626 00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 13: for example, works for Raytheon. He's working on the Golden Dome, 627 00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:49,280 Speaker 13: and so they're trying to catch up there. And you 628 00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:53,800 Speaker 13: still have some of the old even the military bureaucracy 629 00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:55,600 Speaker 13: that is like, hey, we don't want to get along, 630 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:58,720 Speaker 13: and that's where the careers a lot of good careers, 631 00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:01,760 Speaker 13: but that's where the you know, politicals are sitting there 632 00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:04,920 Speaker 13: and pushing them and clearing away it did work and 633 00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:08,520 Speaker 13: making examples of those who won't go ahead and move 634 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:11,600 Speaker 13: forward on this stuff like that, a lot to catch up. Fortunately, 635 00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:14,960 Speaker 13: we got a great team. The secretaries are great. The 636 00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:18,720 Speaker 13: under secretaries are great, whether it's readiness with Tata, whether 637 00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:21,600 Speaker 13: it's Mike Duffy on acquisition, they. 638 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:24,560 Speaker 12: Are moving ahead. His bureaucracy is a hard thing to change. 639 00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:29,080 Speaker 13: Or Deputy Secretary Steve Feinberg, great guy knows his stuff 640 00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:31,400 Speaker 13: and is you know behind the scenes the I mean, 641 00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:32,760 Speaker 13: these guys are working twenty four seven. 642 00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:34,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, you can see it. 643 00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:37,600 Speaker 1: You can see it in the Transformation last night, Americans 644 00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:40,080 Speaker 1: got to look into the eyes of true American heroes. 645 00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:42,720 Speaker 1: The pilot that has his leg shot so badly, he's 646 00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 1: bleeding out and he's still flying that chopper out to 647 00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,680 Speaker 1: get Maduro in the team out World War two, or 648 00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:50,120 Speaker 1: give me a Korean War veteran who rescues one hundred 649 00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 1: and fifty people. And we hear about the Melch every day. 650 00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:55,680 Speaker 2: We hear it. It's sort of sort of storified when you. 651 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:57,520 Speaker 1: Look in the eyes of those guys when they stood 652 00:33:57,560 --> 00:33:59,479 Speaker 1: up and you got to see them, that pilot standing 653 00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:01,680 Speaker 1: with that the walker as he's trying to heal back. 654 00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:05,080 Speaker 1: What moment does that do not only for American people 655 00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:06,880 Speaker 1: to look into the eyes of a real American hero, 656 00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:10,600 Speaker 1: but for our allies across the world, and for our 657 00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:12,680 Speaker 1: men and women who oftentimes are in the Biden years 658 00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:14,360 Speaker 1: didn't get any recognition. 659 00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:18,160 Speaker 12: Right, you know, it's it's one of those challenges. 660 00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:22,320 Speaker 13: You you are on active duty and everyone talks about 661 00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:24,719 Speaker 13: how great you are and you get discounts, and then 662 00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:26,720 Speaker 13: the day you are off active duty is like you're invisible. 663 00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:29,520 Speaker 13: And so, you know, this is the first time, this 664 00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:35,120 Speaker 13: is the first president I've seen really provide that straightforward recognition. Look, 665 00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:37,040 Speaker 13: I worked for President Bush as well, and he was 666 00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:39,520 Speaker 13: a veteran too, but no one loves our veterans and 667 00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:42,840 Speaker 13: our active duty and shows it more than President Trump. 668 00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:45,360 Speaker 13: I mean when I worked in the White House, Trump 669 00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:47,560 Speaker 13: won and met with him. I mean, that was his 670 00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:49,960 Speaker 13: top concern and that's how we got the Mission Act 671 00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:53,160 Speaker 13: is making sure, hey, if we have our combat troots 672 00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:54,960 Speaker 13: get hurt, I'm going to give everything they need to 673 00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:55,479 Speaker 13: get done. 674 00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:58,480 Speaker 12: And so it's it's it's you know, that. 675 00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:01,919 Speaker 13: Recognition, but the President himself and coming to the State 676 00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:04,120 Speaker 13: of the Union. I mean, so it's not just some 677 00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:07,080 Speaker 13: you know, guy who's given a lot of money or 678 00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:10,120 Speaker 13: something like that. It's really made sure that purple heart's 679 00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:11,920 Speaker 13: put on the recognition to the pilot. 680 00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:14,719 Speaker 12: You cannot understand how much. 681 00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 13: Both the active duty Reserve National Guard and the veterans 682 00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:23,239 Speaker 13: appreciate that a veteran, a president who really appreciates his 683 00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:25,680 Speaker 13: military and his veterans and shows it and goes out 684 00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:28,480 Speaker 13: of his way to do it, and it's just not 685 00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:29,120 Speaker 13: been done before. 686 00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:31,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, I never saw something like that last night. That 687 00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:32,120 Speaker 2: was incredible. 688 00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:35,640 Speaker 13: It's an amazing by a president who truly loves the 689 00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:36,680 Speaker 13: troops and put them first. 690 00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:40,359 Speaker 4: Yeah, he never misses an opportunity to talk about it. 691 00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:42,839 Speaker 4: I want to go back to the bureaucracy thing for 692 00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:45,360 Speaker 4: a moment, because so oftentimes it's tied. 693 00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:47,839 Speaker 3: To waste, fraud and abuse. And I know you've spoken. 694 00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:50,440 Speaker 4: Out about this forty million dollars a week that goes 695 00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:51,560 Speaker 4: to Afghanistan. 696 00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:53,360 Speaker 3: A lot of it ends up with the Taliban. 697 00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:56,239 Speaker 4: That is a direct result of, you know, too much waste, 698 00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:57,720 Speaker 4: fraud and abuse in the system. 699 00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:00,520 Speaker 3: How do we fix it? It's definitely not just fantastan. 700 00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:04,759 Speaker 13: I tell you it's hard to fix because it's so embedded. 701 00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 12: Look, you have a very thin layer of politicals. 702 00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:12,799 Speaker 13: You have a very thick layer the state departments for 703 00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:14,840 Speaker 13: the worst cases and that's how a lot this money 704 00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:18,680 Speaker 13: gets distributed, and you know, and trying to americanize and. 705 00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:22,120 Speaker 12: Stuff like that. Dose was a good step in the 706 00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:22,920 Speaker 12: right place. 707 00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:27,640 Speaker 13: We need to take that initial Doze effort and that 708 00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:28,600 Speaker 13: initial Doze thought. 709 00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:30,480 Speaker 12: We need to institutionalize that. 710 00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:34,760 Speaker 13: And I think we need the administration to put together 711 00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:39,799 Speaker 13: more Tiger teams that are getting rid of the fraud 712 00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:44,680 Speaker 13: wasted abuse. Government is self sustaining, and they are very 713 00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:47,520 Speaker 13: wasteful because it's easy to spend other people's money and 714 00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:49,839 Speaker 13: it's not tru We don't have to ask for more 715 00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:52,439 Speaker 13: money if we actually properly spend the money we have. 716 00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:54,480 Speaker 13: It's a problem. It's a big problem in do o 717 00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:57,480 Speaker 13: W where we were addressing it. It's a big problem 718 00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:02,120 Speaker 13: in the VA, and so we knew need to do it. 719 00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:05,160 Speaker 13: I mean, and some of it is just outright not caring, 720 00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:08,719 Speaker 13: but some of it is just applying industry practices and 721 00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:11,520 Speaker 13: best practice commerce. I mean, I talked to Oracle about 722 00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:14,399 Speaker 13: getting a better government discount. So it's not necessarily hard, 723 00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:17,040 Speaker 13: it's not necessarily taking away benefits, it's not taking away 724 00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:20,840 Speaker 13: but every dollar you spend better in the Dow is 725 00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:23,919 Speaker 13: a dollar you're spending for another plane, another ship, rather 726 00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:28,319 Speaker 13: than wasteling it on something that's needed. Every dollar that 727 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:31,000 Speaker 13: you save by being more efficient in VA is money 728 00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:32,240 Speaker 13: spent on veterans' healthcare. 729 00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:34,920 Speaker 12: I mean going to give you an example brought to me. 730 00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:39,239 Speaker 13: DoD gets a great discount eighteen dollars for express scripts 731 00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:41,440 Speaker 13: from Walgreens, VA spending twenty eight bucks. 732 00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:43,440 Speaker 12: So all we have to do is apply that. 733 00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:46,080 Speaker 13: Same contract to VA, which they don't know about. We're 734 00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:47,680 Speaker 13: saving ten dollars with saying one point four billion. 735 00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:48,680 Speaker 2: Noah, that's a big money. 736 00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:52,080 Speaker 1: President Trump made a big space and last night his 737 00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:54,000 Speaker 1: number two is going to be in charge of the fraud. 738 00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:54,480 Speaker 2: Watch and it's fixing. 739 00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:56,160 Speaker 1: That's a big statement to the American people that you 740 00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:57,640 Speaker 1: can take the vice president say. 741 00:37:57,600 --> 00:37:58,719 Speaker 2: You're in charge of get it done. 742 00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:00,680 Speaker 1: Darren, I think in this so what you said when 743 00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:02,080 Speaker 1: you got to there, you weren't sure we could do 744 00:38:02,080 --> 00:38:06,319 Speaker 1: in a mission like Venezuela or Iran in less than 745 00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:06,600 Speaker 1: a year. 746 00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:08,160 Speaker 2: It happened. In both of those cases. 747 00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:10,160 Speaker 1: You played a big role in that as one of 748 00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:12,080 Speaker 1: the key people excepcited to get this started. 749 00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:13,480 Speaker 2: Great to have you on the show today. 750 00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:14,160 Speaker 12: Thanks again. 751 00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:16,080 Speaker 2: Thanks, We love having that on every time, come any 752 00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:17,839 Speaker 2: time you want.

Now the whole show about one issue. 755 00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:24,120 Speaker 1: You don't think about it, but those ten cans that 756 00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:26,239 Speaker 1: you put your food in. They're in the middle of 757 00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:29,000 Speaker 1: a major tussle between the world in America. We're going 758 00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:30,919 Speaker 1: to dive into that with a real mom right after 759 00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:31,880 Speaker 1: these next messages. 760 00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:43,240 Speaker 9: Welcome back everybody. 761 00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:47,000 Speaker 4: The President's plan to establish long term financial security for 762 00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:49,719 Speaker 4: millions of newborn children through his Trump accounts has been 763 00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:52,120 Speaker 4: discussed here before. What makes today special is that we 764 00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:54,880 Speaker 4: have a mother who is a Trump account holder, and we're. 765 00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:57,359 Speaker 3: Going to talk to her about her experience. 766 00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:59,799 Speaker 4: With that process and how President Trump's policies aimed at 767 00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:03,359 Speaker 4: make America affoord again are having a positive impact in 768 00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:05,759 Speaker 4: Florida joining us now to discuss that, and also what 769 00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:09,680 Speaker 4: John tea'sed a moment ago, this struggle for ten cans, 770 00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:13,000 Speaker 4: because everybody buys these for casse roles for salsa, So 771 00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:16,520 Speaker 4: we got to talk about that chair for moms for liberty, Rebecca, letwork, Rebecca, 772 00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:17,640 Speaker 4: thanks so much for being. 773 00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:20,560 Speaker 14: With us, Hi, thanks for having us. I don't mean 774 00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:23,279 Speaker 14: to correct, but it's moms for America. But we are 775 00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:26,680 Speaker 14: moms for liberty too, Liberty freedom. 776 00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:30,080 Speaker 4: Absolutely, and it probably said America. I probably just glossed 777 00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:32,319 Speaker 4: over it. Rebecca, Thank you so much for being with us. 778 00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:36,120 Speaker 4: Have you noticed that ten cans those types of things 779 00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:38,919 Speaker 4: at the grocery store? Because President Trump is all about affordability. 780 00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:41,920 Speaker 4: He emphasized that over and over again last night. Have 781 00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:44,320 Speaker 4: you noticed that those have been more expensive? 782 00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:48,880 Speaker 14: Absolutely, It's funny you asked that specific question about the 783 00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:52,120 Speaker 14: tin cans because I'm down in Palm Beach County, Florida, 784 00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:55,600 Speaker 14: but the last two months we've gotten really cold days, 785 00:39:56,520 --> 00:40:00,080 Speaker 14: and whenever that happens, I love to bring out my 786 00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:05,600 Speaker 14: mom's recipe of good old American chili. And growing up, 787 00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:08,480 Speaker 14: my mom fed me and my six brothers and sisters, 788 00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:12,360 Speaker 14: so total of seven. One of her staples was chili 789 00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:16,000 Speaker 14: because it was very inexpensive to make. And when I 790 00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:18,040 Speaker 14: was going to the grocery store over the last couple 791 00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:23,000 Speaker 14: of months, my what once was twenty dollars in under 792 00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:26,799 Speaker 14: pot of American chili is not that anymore. It's it's 793 00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:32,000 Speaker 14: more around thirty to thirty five, sometimes forty dollars, depending 794 00:40:32,040 --> 00:40:34,319 Speaker 14: on you know when I add the meat, because meat 795 00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:38,000 Speaker 14: has gone up too. But it seems it seems very 796 00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:42,440 Speaker 14: silly when we're talking about canned tomatoes and canned beans, 797 00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:47,239 Speaker 14: things that you don't normally think about, but they've become expensive. 798 00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:50,719 Speaker 14: Another meal that I loved to make for my six 799 00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:54,120 Speaker 14: year old son, his favorite is mac and cheese with 800 00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:57,799 Speaker 14: a can of peas. Mac and cheese and peas, and 801 00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:02,560 Speaker 14: that was normally like works for three to five dollars meal, 802 00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:06,160 Speaker 14: and it's now easily six to seven dollars. So I've 803 00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:10,880 Speaker 14: definitely noticed a rise in those in those can goods. 804 00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:12,920 Speaker 2: I don't know. 805 00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:14,759 Speaker 1: I'm actually the next time i'm West Palm Beach, I'm 806 00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:16,399 Speaker 1: gonna look you up and seeven go do lunch together 807 00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:19,040 Speaker 1: because Chilean mac and cheese with peace sounds really good. 808 00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:24,319 Speaker 1: There's a real issue here, right, and it's not that 809 00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:27,200 Speaker 1: our farmer's foods are getting more expensive. It's that we 810 00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:30,160 Speaker 1: have this temporary sort of disruption in the marketplace. For years, 811 00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:34,279 Speaker 1: we didn't focus on tinplate, which is the sort of 812 00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:36,759 Speaker 1: steel that we use to make those cans. It comes 813 00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:39,480 Speaker 1: from overseas. President Trump's trying to rebalance the economy and 814 00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:42,200 Speaker 1: get more fair trade for America, and so we put 815 00:41:42,239 --> 00:41:46,680 Speaker 1: some tariffs and the system wasn't ready to inherit or 816 00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:49,520 Speaker 1: in house all of this tin plate production. When you 817 00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:51,640 Speaker 1: learn that, and I know you do, you're studied up 818 00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:54,080 Speaker 1: on this, it's kind of amazing that something like food 819 00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:56,680 Speaker 1: is affected downstream from that. How do we get more 820 00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:59,319 Speaker 1: Americans educated on how the system is sort of we 821 00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:03,400 Speaker 1: woven together, then we need to fix it, you know, that's. 822 00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:04,000 Speaker 12: A great question. 823 00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:06,719 Speaker 14: One of the things that we do in Moms for 824 00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:10,680 Speaker 14: America is I gather women, specifically moms in my home 825 00:42:10,719 --> 00:42:14,720 Speaker 14: once a month, and we study up on our history. 826 00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:17,680 Speaker 14: We fall in love with the Constitution all over again. 827 00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:21,520 Speaker 14: We really equip ourselves as moms. That way we can 828 00:42:21,719 --> 00:42:24,680 Speaker 14: teach our children, you know, all these great things about 829 00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:29,200 Speaker 14: our country, you know, the divine blessing of self governance 830 00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:34,160 Speaker 14: that comes, you know, not from Washington, it comes from 831 00:42:34,239 --> 00:42:36,840 Speaker 14: us teaching our children in the home. And so this 832 00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:42,120 Speaker 14: has been already a topic in our home about you know, 833 00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:45,280 Speaker 14: the grocery prices. I'm like, where are you shopping? Because 834 00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:47,680 Speaker 14: where I'm shopping, you know, and a lot of us, 835 00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:51,080 Speaker 14: what I'm finding is we don't have the extra time 836 00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:54,800 Speaker 14: to go and search out these stores where we can 837 00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:59,160 Speaker 14: you know, find you know, like a few cents cheaper. 838 00:42:59,280 --> 00:43:02,680 Speaker 14: But I've actually dug in that way I can go 839 00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:07,719 Speaker 14: and share with my with my mom community that all 840 00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:11,080 Speaker 14: the way back to like the Pittsburgh Steelers like we 841 00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:15,719 Speaker 14: were once, you know, you know, like dominating in the 842 00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:20,279 Speaker 14: steel game and so but you know, all of us, 843 00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:25,759 Speaker 14: we really do have faith in the administration. We have 844 00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:30,759 Speaker 14: hope that he will you know, hear us. And you know, 845 00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:33,640 Speaker 14: I speak for for all the moms and the parents 846 00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:35,840 Speaker 14: that are feeding our kids, like it needs to be 847 00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:38,560 Speaker 14: more comfortable again when we're talking, especially when we're talking 848 00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:43,520 Speaker 14: about just like canned foods. But yeah, I'm doing my 849 00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:46,440 Speaker 14: part that way I can educate you know, my my 850 00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:47,920 Speaker 14: Mom's for America group. 851 00:43:49,160 --> 00:43:50,799 Speaker 3: Yeah, by backa before we let you go. 852 00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:54,600 Speaker 4: You know, I think that for a lot of Americans, 853 00:43:54,680 --> 00:43:57,920 Speaker 4: cans are considered an economical choice, like you said with chili, 854 00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:00,879 Speaker 4: for me, with taco soup. It's a great option when 855 00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:03,840 Speaker 4: you're trying to feed a big family. If the moms 856 00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:07,560 Speaker 4: in America are priced out of the can market, what 857 00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:08,000 Speaker 4: do you do? 858 00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:16,600 Speaker 14: Honestly, we just have to make adjustments. I mean what 859 00:44:16,680 --> 00:44:19,760 Speaker 14: else can we do. We just have to to say. 860 00:44:19,920 --> 00:44:23,040 Speaker 14: I mean, if our grocery prices are still this high, 861 00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:25,520 Speaker 14: we're just going to have to you know, it's going 862 00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:29,200 Speaker 14: to be uncomfortable for a little bit. And you know, 863 00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:32,160 Speaker 14: even if you're buying generic, the generic prices have gone up. 864 00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:35,080 Speaker 14: And so I just want to say, hold out hope 865 00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:37,640 Speaker 14: because I have I am confident that this will get 866 00:44:37,719 --> 00:44:41,719 Speaker 14: worked out. But again, yeah, it's just going to kind 867 00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:45,399 Speaker 14: of disrupt every other part of our life where we're 868 00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:47,520 Speaker 14: spending so much money at the grocery store. We can't 869 00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:48,760 Speaker 14: afford to do other things. 870 00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:53,560 Speaker 1: But when the Trump administration hears from moms, when you 871 00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:56,400 Speaker 1: hear from steel makers and can makers and from farmers 872 00:44:56,440 --> 00:44:58,359 Speaker 1: are all affected by this, they're going to listen. They're 873 00:44:58,360 --> 00:45:01,520 Speaker 1: always very pragmatic. Tomorrow we're going to I think experience it. 874 00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:03,000 Speaker 1: They are, and I think tomorrow we're gonna have a 875 00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:05,920 Speaker 1: whole show that really dives into It's a really fascinating ecosystem. 876 00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:07,719 Speaker 2: We didn't know.

Wore on that. 885 00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:34,799 Speaker 1: The journalists. My job is to follow the fact. So 886 00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:37,000 Speaker 1: when I wasn't sleeping well, I did what I always do. 887 00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:40,120 Speaker 1: I went looking for answers. I led a search that 888 00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:43,080 Speaker 1: led me to gost Bed. I interviewed ghost Bed's founder, 889 00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:45,640 Speaker 1: who created ghostped after multiple neck surgeries. 890 00:45:45,880 --> 00:45:47,680 Speaker 2: He couldn't find a mattress. The matter the. 891 00:45:47,600 --> 00:45:49,839 Speaker 1: Price, I would really relieve the pressure and support it 892 00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:52,920 Speaker 1: restless sleep. I was interested. I wasn't sleeping well, but 893 00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:55,840 Speaker 1: I wasn't convinced. So after taking the online mattress quiz, 894 00:45:55,960 --> 00:45:59,120 Speaker 1: I chose the ghost bed signature hybrid and put it 895 00:45:59,120 --> 00:46:02,480 Speaker 1: to the test. The difference has been remarkable. I fell 896 00:46:02,480 --> 00:46:03,640 Speaker 1: asleep almost instantly. 897 00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:04,839 Speaker 2: That was new. 898 00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:07,880 Speaker 1: I slept so deeply I'd wake up surprised it was morning. 899 00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:10,200 Speaker 1: When the last time you slept so deeply that the 900 00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:13,720 Speaker 1: world went offline.

It was full of lies, and you 917 00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:10,279 Speaker 15: know when he wasn't lying, he was. It reminded me 918 00:47:10,320 --> 00:47:12,680 Speaker 15: of our kids going to show and tell at school. 919 00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:18,080 Speaker 15: It was literally nothing that was true about really how the. 920 00:47:18,040 --> 00:47:20,239 Speaker 3: America people right now, so many are suffering. 921 00:47:23,120 --> 00:47:27,399 Speaker 4: Inflation is transitory. It was a smooth withdrawal from Afghanistan. 922 00:47:27,480 --> 00:47:30,160 Speaker 4: Those to me sound like lies, not what President Trump's did. 923 00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:32,880 Speaker 2: President Biden's mental cuity was just fine. 924 00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:34,960 Speaker 1: I think she vouched for the guy until she didn't 925 00:47:35,200 --> 00:47:37,640 Speaker 1: remember a book she kind of backs away from me. Listen, 926 00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:43,080 Speaker 1: the Democrats have that as one of our sounding bearers 927 00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:44,960 Speaker 1: right now, and then they put out a governor as 928 00:47:45,120 --> 00:47:47,320 Speaker 1: he said, I'm all for affordability. Why my party in 929 00:47:47,360 --> 00:47:49,400 Speaker 1: Virginia is about the tax to living dickens out of you. 930 00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:52,080 Speaker 1: As a party that has a real problem getting its 931 00:47:52,120 --> 00:47:55,600 Speaker 1: message in its visuals and its people straight, I don't 932 00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:57,359 Speaker 1: think it was a good night for Democrats. So in fact, 933 00:47:57,520 --> 00:48:00,960 Speaker 1: there's a moment where you see hecking Jeffrey's leaping over 934 00:48:01,280 --> 00:48:04,000 Speaker 1: and he's telling someone it's pretty clear we've been toasted tonight. 935 00:48:04,880 --> 00:48:06,960 Speaker 1: They knew last night, they took a shlacking, and there's 936 00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:10,080 Speaker 1: no amount of talking points that are going to extract 937 00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:10,480 Speaker 1: him from that. 938 00:48:10,719 --> 00:48:13,520 Speaker 4: Well, well, when your whole platform is we hate Trump 939 00:48:13,600 --> 00:48:16,640 Speaker 4: and not your own policies, then yeah, that's exactly what's 940 00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:18,200 Speaker 4: going to happen. But you know who didn't have a 941 00:48:18,280 --> 00:48:20,040 Speaker 4: terrible night, even though he has a D next to. 942 00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:21,760 Speaker 3: His name, Senator John Fetterman. 943 00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:24,080 Speaker 4: Because he's one of the few Democrats who actually tries 944 00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:26,040 Speaker 4: to make sense of what's happening on both sides of 945 00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:29,120 Speaker 4: the aisle and make his own decision. He should and 946 00:48:29,280 --> 00:48:31,600 Speaker 4: he wore a suit, he shook President Trump's hand. A 947 00:48:31,640 --> 00:48:33,319 Speaker 4: lot of people gave him grief for that, and here's 948 00:48:33,320 --> 00:48:33,960 Speaker 4: his explanation. 949 00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:37,200 Speaker 16: You don't have to agree with everything. You can be 950 00:48:37,239 --> 00:48:40,520 Speaker 16: in a different party, you know. I think it's just 951 00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:44,840 Speaker 16: basic respect and courtesy, you know, whether it's for the 952 00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:47,759 Speaker 16: office or whether it's just kind of I mean, I 953 00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:51,120 Speaker 16: can't think we can get to the place where, I mean, 954 00:48:52,440 --> 00:48:55,480 Speaker 16: the state of the Union can't turn into like the 955 00:48:56,080 --> 00:48:56,759 Speaker 16: Springer show. 956 00:48:58,600 --> 00:49:01,000 Speaker 4: John basic respect does he spoke about used to be 957 00:49:01,080 --> 00:49:03,560 Speaker 4: something that both parties had for the president, no matter 958 00:49:03,600 --> 00:49:05,279 Speaker 4: who was in power. And what's ironic. That's an old 959 00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:07,879 Speaker 4: school mentality. But John Fetterman is one of the newest 960 00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:08,640 Speaker 4: members of the Senate. 961 00:49:09,640 --> 00:49:13,040 Speaker 1: I thought his description of the Democrats' behavior as a 962 00:49:13,120 --> 00:49:17,040 Speaker 1: Springer show Jerry Springer show was right. There was screaming, yelling, silliness, 963 00:49:17,160 --> 00:49:19,719 Speaker 1: walking out, not waiting for the president to leave the 964 00:49:19,800 --> 00:49:20,800 Speaker 1: chamber and leaving early. 965 00:49:22,040 --> 00:49:23,520 Speaker 2: He got it right. I mean, listen to this guy. 966 00:49:24,040 --> 00:49:26,880 Speaker 1: If the Democratic Party ever figures itself out, guys like 967 00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:29,520 Speaker 1: John Fetterman could be really important forces in bringing the 968 00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:32,640 Speaker 1: Democratic Party back. But right now it's in the hands 969 00:49:32,680 --> 00:49:36,080 Speaker 1: of people like elan Omar aoc and yeut. 970 00:49:36,520 --> 00:49:36,840 Speaker 3: Yeah. 971 00:49:36,880 --> 00:49:38,600 Speaker 4: And the media is in the hands of people like 972 00:49:38,680 --> 00:49:41,440 Speaker 4: Joy Behar, who said that President Trump's speech made her 973 00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:42,359 Speaker 4: physically ill. 974 00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:43,880 Speaker 3: Oh, the history on exit. 975 00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:45,600 Speaker 2: That's what they feel like when they're watching her show. 976 00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:48,320 Speaker 3: That's absolutely true. 977 00:49:48,560 --> 00:49:50,640 Speaker 4: All Right, everybody that's going to do it for us tonight, 978 00:49:50,680 --> 00:49:51,759 Speaker 4: we appreciate you being with us. 979 00:49:51,760 --> 00:49:53,319 Speaker 3: We're going to be back here tomorrow night at six 980 00:49:53,400 --> 00:49:53,960 Speaker 3: pm Eastern
