1
00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:05,440
Speaker 1: D Day Today, Pete haig Seth joins us talks about

2
00:00:05,519 --> 00:00:08,039
Speaker 1: D Day, the state of our military, all kinds of

3
00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:12,320
Speaker 1: lawfair stuff with Margot Cleveland, my friend comedian Dave Smith.

4
00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:14,240
Speaker 2: I mean, we are stacked tonight.

5
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:25,640
Speaker 1: But I'm right, well, what is today?

6
00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:27,040
Speaker 2: Yeah? And yes, believe me.

7
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:28,720
Speaker 1: I am aware of all the news of the day,

8
00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:31,680
Speaker 1: the lawfair stuff we have, Pete haig Seth, there's so

9
00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:34,199
Speaker 1: much modern news stuff we're going to get to.

10
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:35,240
Speaker 2: But what is today?

11
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:40,279
Speaker 1: Today is the eightieth anniversary of D Day. Now I'm

12
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:44,040
Speaker 1: going to do something just really really briefly here. First,

13
00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 1: remember this was Operation Overlord. What was Operation Overlord? We

14
00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:52,640
Speaker 1: didn't know how to get into Europe. Hitler had taken

15
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:56,440
Speaker 1: it all and had fortified it all, and we were trying.

16
00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:58,000
Speaker 2: To figure out how do we get in?

17
00:00:58,240 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 1: You know, we look at a map and we think,

18
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 1: what is go in here? No, he had fortified the

19
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:08,360
Speaker 1: whole thing on the Atlantic coast, three thousand miles of fortifications.

20
00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:11,360
Speaker 1: That's what Hitler had done. Barbed wire, pill boxes, you

21
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:14,520
Speaker 1: name it, the works. He loaded it all up. They

22
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:18,400
Speaker 1: came up with Operation Overlord and and we went and

23
00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:20,360
Speaker 1: I want you to imagine something and then we're gonna

24
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:22,319
Speaker 1: move on. We'll talk about some other things, what Biden

25
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:23,560
Speaker 1: said and all that other stuff today.

26
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:24,840
Speaker 2: But I want you, I want you to picture this.

27
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:27,040
Speaker 2: You get up at three am.

28
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,959
Speaker 1: It's cold outside, you're so nervous, you have a hard

29
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 1: time eating breakfast. Maybe you got some down, maybe you don't.

30
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 1: You throw on all your gear and you head down

31
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:43,679
Speaker 1: to the water. It's still dark and it's cold, it's cold, cold, rainy.

32
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 2: And you step into a boat.

33
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 1: You're very careful not to touch the water in the

34
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,520
Speaker 1: English Channel because it's cold too. You're already cold, you're

35
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 1: already nervous, you already got the shakes.

36
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 2: And you step into this boat.

37
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 1: And then the boat begins to move in the dark

38
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 1: towards danger and you know this, and the waves start

39
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:07,520
Speaker 1: coming over the sides. The sea is so terrible. One

40
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 1: of your boats capsizes, everyone lost. The water starts flooding in.

41
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:15,399
Speaker 1: Now you're soaking wet, you're freezing cold, you're nervous, you're

42
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:18,040
Speaker 1: seasick to the point the bottom of the boat is

43
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 1: starting to fill up with vomit.

44
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:21,600
Speaker 2: And on and on.

45
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 1: You go, and soon you begin to make out the

46
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,560
Speaker 1: outline of a cliff, a tall cliff in front of you.

47
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 2: It's all dark and black, and as you get.

48
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 1: Closer and closer and closer to that cliff, it starts

49
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 1: to shoot at you, mortar shells, machine gun fire. Your

50
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:44,079
Speaker 1: friends start to get hit, and finally you land on

51
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 1: the beaches underneath this hundred foot tall cliff. You and

52
00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:51,680
Speaker 1: your friends are being shot at from the Germans above.

53
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 1: They're chucking grenades down at you. But you don't just

54
00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:58,680
Speaker 1: get to hide. There's nowhere to retreat to. It's just

55
00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 1: the ocean back behind you. You have to use ladders

56
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 1: and grappling hooks with ropes on them like your batman

57
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 1: to get to the top of this cliff while you're

58
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 1: being shot at and blown up. One of your buddies

59
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 1: right beside you, was halfway up the cliff, thirty feet up,

60
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:20,680
Speaker 1: and the Germans cut the rope and down.

61
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:24,360
Speaker 2: He goes, right in front of you. That was the story.

62
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,680
Speaker 1: That's a brief part of the story of the Second

63
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 1: Ranger Battalion and what they did on D Day.

64
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 2: It's a lesser known part of D Day.

65
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:37,120
Speaker 1: Yes, they scaled one hundred foot tall cliff and fought

66
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 1: the Germans on top of it.

67
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 2: Can you even imagine the kind of bravery it takes.

68
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 1: Two hundred and twenty five men set out to do

69
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 1: that that day. By dawn the next day, seventy of

70
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 1: them could stand and then wheeled a rifle. Unimaginable bravery.

71
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:01,360
Speaker 1: And we honor all of them today. The bravery that

72
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 1: takes all of you. It's just it's amazing to me.

73
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 1: I can never do it. Whatever that is, I don't

74
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 1: have it. I don't know what that is.

75
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 2: Now.

76
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 1: That's D Day. That's a little brief story on D Day.

77
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:19,720
Speaker 1: Probably listening to that story, probably I would guess, I

78
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 1: would guess stirred a little something in you. Patriotism, some

79
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 1: sort of pry, maybe maybe even sadness for those who

80
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 1: lost their lives. But something in you stirred when I

81
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 1: was just talking to you for a couple of minutes,

82
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:35,159
Speaker 1: didn't it.

83
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 2: It's natural.

84
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,000
Speaker 1: Look, when I was sitting down doing some things before

85
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 1: the show, I'm talking full disclosure. You know I'm not

86
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 1: the touchy feely type. I choked up a little bit,

87
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 1: a couple of little parts.

88
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:47,599
Speaker 2: That I left out it. They got me, they got

89
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:48,039
Speaker 2: me bad.

90
00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:53,480
Speaker 1: But I want you to listen to something, and I

91
00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 1: set aside your anger as best you can. But Joe Biden,

92
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 1: of course had to pretend to care about d Days. Today,

93
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 1: Winton gave a little speech, and of course he made

94
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:05,880
Speaker 1: it political.

95
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:09,839
Speaker 3: We're living at a time when democracy had more risk

96
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:14,039
Speaker 3: across the world than a point since the end through

97
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,400
Speaker 3: World War Two, since these beaches were stormed.

98
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:22,880
Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton went on social media today and said something similar.

99
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:26,320
Speaker 1: Eighty years ago today, thousands of brave Americans fought to

100
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:29,920
Speaker 1: protect democracy on the shores of Normandy this November.

101
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:32,080
Speaker 2: All we have to do is vote.

102
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 1: Taking a day like this, a day about America, a

103
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,479
Speaker 1: day to honor the troops, to honor their sacrifice, to

104
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:40,960
Speaker 1: honor their service.

105
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 2: And making it about an election about politics.

106
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 1: How could they do that? How could they be so

107
00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 1: tone deaf? You've seen a lot of that today. If

108
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,479
Speaker 1: you've seen these comments, well, I just need to explain

109
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 1: something to you. These people don't share your value system

110
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:04,159
Speaker 1: at all. It is so critical that you understand that

111
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 1: you're dealing with a totally different animal. I could have

112
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,839
Speaker 1: told I could sit Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton down,

113
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:13,320
Speaker 1: I could sit your liberal aunt Peggy down in front

114
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,400
Speaker 1: of me, and I could spend an hour going over

115
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,880
Speaker 1: the stories of just that second Ranger Battalion on D Day,

116
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:21,800
Speaker 1: and the ropes and the ladders and the blood and

117
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:25,360
Speaker 1: the bombs and the bullets and the sacrifice, and nothing,

118
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:29,159
Speaker 1: nothing inside of them would stir. None of the things

119
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 1: that just stirred inside of you would stir at all.

120
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 1: It wouldn't even make a dent. It would be like

121
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:38,320
Speaker 1: I was talking to a monkey. Nothing would stir inside

122
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:42,919
Speaker 1: of them. You have to understand that our country is

123
00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 1: led you me, We share a country.

124
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 2: With people who feel nothing for it.

125
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 1: For the elite communists who run this country, that Joe

126
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 1: Biden's the Hillary Clinton's America has nothing but a bank

127
00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:00,080
Speaker 1: vault to be looted. They'll do whatever they can and

128
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:03,599
Speaker 1: then leave the carcass when they move on to something else.

129
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:07,159
Speaker 1: For the street communists, the dirt balls in the streets

130
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,160
Speaker 1: with this and the dad and the climate change and

131
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:11,400
Speaker 1: the black lives better or whatever else it may be,

132
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 1: America is just the gigantic evil empire to be burned.

133
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:21,440
Speaker 1: It is critically important that you and I understand and

134
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:25,880
Speaker 1: except we share a country with people who feel.

135
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:27,360
Speaker 2: Nothing for it.

136
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:32,200
Speaker 1: Were led by people who feel nothing for our nation,

137
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 1: and it looks it's part of why these people are

138
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 1: apparently so willing to get us into World War three?

139
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:43,160
Speaker 2: Do you see what Joe Biden said today?

140
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,480
Speaker 4: Our American weapons being used right now inside Russia.

141
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 3: They're authorized to be used in proximity to the border.

142
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:56,080
Speaker 3: We're not authorizing stretch two hundred miles into Russia. We're

143
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 3: not off in the striction on Moscow. I'm the Kremlin.

144
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 1: We are authorizing US weapons to be used inside of

145
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 1: Russian's borders. Do you understand what an escalation that is?

146
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 1: Do you understand that that is forcing Vladimir Putin to

147
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 1: respond in kind hate? Vladimir Putin all you want, I

148
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 1: certainly do. He is able to remain leader of Russia

149
00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 1: because he sells himself as the strong man protector of Russia.

150
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:39,960
Speaker 1: That's how he sells himself. He cannot allow American weapons

151
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:44,080
Speaker 1: to kill Russians inside of his border without a response.

152
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:45,880
Speaker 2: He can't.

153
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 5: So.

154
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:48,600
Speaker 2: On this eightieth anniversary of.

155
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 1: D Day, when we think about all the blood and

156
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 1: bombs and bullets and death and sacrifice, look at the

157
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,360
Speaker 1: people we have now and how willing they are to

158
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 1: send our sons and daughters back again.

159
00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:03,319
Speaker 2: It just blows me away.

160
00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 1: Well, it is awful to be led by people like this,

161
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 1: people who don't care about our troops. I mean, Joe Biden,

162
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 1: Democrat Republic doesn't matter. He's president, he is the commander

163
00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:17,000
Speaker 1: in chief. And the guys I know who are still

164
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 1: in do not feel valued. To put it, mildly, joining

165
00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 1: me now, Pete Hegseth, author of the book The War

166
00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 1: on Warriors, you really should pick this book up and

167
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 1: find out exactly how our guys are being treated.

168
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 2: Pete.

169
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 1: Honestly, it's not exactly something new that guys who are

170
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:38,079
Speaker 1: in don't exactly get treated great. You don't join to

171
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:39,960
Speaker 1: get treated great. You're not signing up to stay at

172
00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:42,520
Speaker 1: the Hilton. That's not how it works. But it would

173
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 1: be nice if you didn't have this never ending feeling

174
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,480
Speaker 1: of betrayal from the people who lead you, not just

175
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:51,679
Speaker 1: to politicians, but the dirt ball flag officers we have

176
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:52,800
Speaker 1: now in this military.

177
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:56,520
Speaker 5: You know, that's why the subtitle is behind the betrayal

178
00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:57,760
Speaker 5: of the men who keep us free.

179
00:09:58,280 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 2: It is it is.

180
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:05,080
Speaker 5: Generals with stars on their shoulder who are cowards, who

181
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 5: ultimately wouldn't stand up to the ideologies being rammed down.

182
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 4: The throats of our leadership.

183
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:11,840
Speaker 5: They never stood up and said nope, Hey, you know,

184
00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:14,319
Speaker 5: women in combat's not going to work very well. You're

185
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 5: not going to stand up and say we're not going

186
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,160
Speaker 5: to do this trans stuff. But didn't stand up and say, hey,

187
00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:20,720
Speaker 5: we don't need your CRT and DEI. It only makes

188
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:25,120
Speaker 5: it causes division inside our ranks, only creates skepticism and animosity.

189
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,280
Speaker 5: And no one ever threw their stars on the table

190
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:30,200
Speaker 5: said we're not doing it. So as a result, this

191
00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:32,760
Speaker 5: book is not how the military went woke. It's how

192
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:35,319
Speaker 5: the military allowed itself to go woke. You're right, because

193
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:39,440
Speaker 5: there were cowards and camouflage wouldn't make tough polls or

194
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:43,440
Speaker 5: retire or call it out or resign and say I'm

195
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:45,440
Speaker 5: not doing this because politicians are going to do what

196
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:48,320
Speaker 5: politicians do. We know what left wingers do. They do

197
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:50,640
Speaker 5: crazy stuff. Just keep it out of our military where

198
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,720
Speaker 5: it's life or death. Because you're right, we all signed up.

199
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:55,760
Speaker 5: We get the uniform and the bad haircut. We know

200
00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:58,000
Speaker 5: we're not in for paradise. We're in because we love

201
00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:00,280
Speaker 5: the country and a lot of vet You know this.

202
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:00,960
Speaker 4: You talk to these.

203
00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:02,800
Speaker 5: Guys, I talk to them, are questioning whether they would

204
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 5: recommend it. For their sons and their daughters in the future.

205
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:07,839
Speaker 5: And that's pretty understandable considering what folks have done to

206
00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,040
Speaker 5: the military.

207
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:10,320
Speaker 4: Pete.

208
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:12,240
Speaker 1: I'll tell you right now, I've got two boys thirteen

209
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:13,400
Speaker 1: and fifteen, and they're not joining.

210
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:15,720
Speaker 2: I realized they can do whatever they want when they're eighteen.

211
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 1: But my kids are out, and I don't know a

212
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:22,199
Speaker 1: single gat veteran friend of mine.

213
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 2: Who feels differently.

214
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:26,960
Speaker 1: And these are guys who come from military families. We're

215
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:31,360
Speaker 1: talking WW two, Korea, Vietnam, my grandpa, my dad, my uncle.

216
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:34,079
Speaker 1: I fought in Iraq, I fought in Afghanistan, and now

217
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,400
Speaker 1: they're telling their kids, Nope, you're done with all of this.

218
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 1: These are the families who in our wars, Pete, and

219
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,200
Speaker 1: they're done. And the guys who are interesttting out. The

220
00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:44,200
Speaker 1: retention crisis is as bad as the recruiting crisis.

221
00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:46,880
Speaker 4: So what do we do? Where do we go? Who

222
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:47,880
Speaker 4: stands up? Who does it?

223
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,720
Speaker 5: And because you're right, this has always been a family business,

224
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:51,840
Speaker 5: here's the crazy part.

225
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:53,439
Speaker 4: You know, if you don't like your tax rates, you

226
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,040
Speaker 4: can move to another state. If you don't like your school,

227
00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 4: you can move to another school. If you don't like one.

228
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:01,080
Speaker 5: Hundred and first Airborne. Where else do you go? I mean,

229
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:02,839
Speaker 5: if you don't like the Marine Corps, where else you don't?

230
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 5: There just now where else to go. So we're a

231
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:08,080
Speaker 5: republic which has turned on itself. We know that we're

232
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:11,160
Speaker 5: in a cold civil war. We've got to teach our

233
00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 5: kids to hate the country that they live in. We

234
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 5: trans our, I mean, it's a disaster. But if we

235
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:20,160
Speaker 5: lose the military, then where else do we turn? So

236
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 5: I grappled with that very same question. My friends say

237
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,280
Speaker 5: the exact same thing. The last chapter of the book

238
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:28,040
Speaker 5: is a letter to my five sons about whether I

239
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:29,520
Speaker 5: would want them to serve. And I didn't know what

240
00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 5: I would write, because I've kind of been in your

241
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:33,319
Speaker 5: camp for the longest time. And at the end of

242
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 5: the day, I think if there was a Trump presidency,

243
00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,199
Speaker 5: in a real realignment of the Pentagon, if we're saying,

244
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:40,880
Speaker 5: you know, heads are rolling, we're firing woke generals, We're

245
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:42,839
Speaker 5: putting a real sect death in charge, a real Chairman

246
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:44,560
Speaker 5: of the Joint Chiefs. We're getting rid of DEI and

247
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:46,920
Speaker 5: CRT at our military academies.

248
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:48,720
Speaker 4: We're gonna focus on readiness. Let's take the.

249
00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 5: Standards back to nineteen ninety five, whenever they were in

250
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:54,320
Speaker 5: nineteen ninety five. Let's make them that and stick with him.

251
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 5: I could I could see myself recommending my boy serving.

252
00:12:57,480 --> 00:12:59,959
Speaker 5: But under this, I mean, Jesse. You probably don't know

253
00:12:59,960 --> 00:13:01,320
Speaker 5: the story I told it in the book. For the

254
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:05,760
Speaker 5: first time, I was dubbed an extremist by my National

255
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:09,520
Speaker 5: Guard unit following the twenty twenty riots, and when we

256
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:10,920
Speaker 5: were going to go guard the inauguration.

257
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 4: That's why I got out. So it's personal for me,

258
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:15,080
Speaker 4: it's personal for you.

259
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 5: Everybody's seen something, whether it's facting mandates, whether it's a

260
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:22,240
Speaker 5: first getting promoted in whatever slot, whether it's training being

261
00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:24,840
Speaker 5: diverted to some nonsense instead of I don't know, gunnery

262
00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:26,280
Speaker 5: tables like all that.

263
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:29,160
Speaker 4: Everybody's seeing an aspect of it. We got to fix

264
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 4: it or where do we turn?

265
00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:33,000
Speaker 2: Yeah?

266
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 1: No, look, if they if they could make those kind

267
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:37,760
Speaker 1: of changes, I'll drop my boys off at the recruiting office.

268
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 1: But it's just the way it is now.

269
00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:42,160
Speaker 2: Pete. I want to ask you this because.

270
00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:46,000
Speaker 1: You were an officer Afghanistan Iraq, a ground pounder, not

271
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:48,520
Speaker 1: one of these poge types. But anyway, you were an officer.

272
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 1: But these guys, these generals we were just lamenting about

273
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 1: a couple minutes ago.

274
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 2: They were too.

275
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:56,719
Speaker 1: I mean, Mark Billy, we all dog on him now

276
00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:57,800
Speaker 1: justifiably so.

277
00:13:57,960 --> 00:13:59,280
Speaker 2: Mark Billy's piece of trash.

278
00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:02,280
Speaker 1: But Mark Milly back in the day was pete excess.

279
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:05,080
Speaker 1: Mark Milly was a pipe pitter. Mark Milly was a stud.

280
00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:09,439
Speaker 1: So what happened when the things on the bars changed?

281
00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:11,480
Speaker 2: What happens in there? Pete?

282
00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:13,800
Speaker 1: Explain it to me, because I don't understand the first

283
00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:16,600
Speaker 1: lieutenant Mark Milly would beat the crap out of four

284
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:17,559
Speaker 1: star Mark Millie.

285
00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:21,960
Speaker 5: That's back when he did pt Uh, you're exactly right,

286
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 5: and that he's a.

287
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:29,080
Speaker 4: Centerpiece of an example of one.

288
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:30,560
Speaker 5: Part of the question is part of the answers. I

289
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:33,160
Speaker 5: don't know why does that transformation happen. There's a lot

290
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 5: of reasons I unpack in the book. Ultimately, you know,

291
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,640
Speaker 5: guys like Mark Milly went to the same woke, elite colleges.

292
00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 4: Our military now sends all.

293
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:43,600
Speaker 6: Of our senior officers to Ivy League schools or elite

294
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:44,400
Speaker 6: schools to.

295
00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 4: Go look more like civilians.

296
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:48,440
Speaker 5: They're supposed to educate civilians on military life. They come back,

297
00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:50,600
Speaker 5: They come back with a pink hue to their camouflage,

298
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:52,360
Speaker 5: and they want to be liked by the chattering class.

299
00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:52,960
Speaker 4: There's a lot of.

300
00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 5: That, but general officers that ranked has it's become about careerism.

301
00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:01,120
Speaker 5: It's become about get along, to go along, find the

302
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:03,800
Speaker 5: current and ride it. The most dangerous thing you could

303
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 5: do is take a risk or take a stand. And

304
00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 5: they know no one's actually held accountable for war fighting aspects,

305
00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:12,560
Speaker 5: so they're willing, under Obama and their Biden to cater

306
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:16,200
Speaker 5: to say, Okay, well, not what I would do, but

307
00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 5: you know what I'm here, so I'll.

308
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,080
Speaker 4: Make sure it'd be shepherded. Okay, oh yeah, I know

309
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:22,000
Speaker 4: we don't really need.

310
00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:24,360
Speaker 5: Electric tanks, but the politicians are telling me, so we're

311
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:26,360
Speaker 5: going to do it with the best military know how

312
00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:29,160
Speaker 5: that we can. They rationalize it by thinking they can

313
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:32,040
Speaker 5: make it less worse, and then they start justifying it,

314
00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:33,760
Speaker 5: and then they get in front of congressional committees and

315
00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:37,200
Speaker 5: they end up defending it like Milly did, and pretty

316
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:38,280
Speaker 5: soon they've sold the pharma.

317
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:40,480
Speaker 4: I know for a fact Milli has this book and

318
00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 4: he hates it.

319
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:44,400
Speaker 5: I've got that on direct knowledge because it calls him

320
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:47,520
Speaker 5: out specifically as an example of this but I also

321
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,200
Speaker 5: talked to I've talked to a two three star marine

322
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:53,200
Speaker 5: for general who is a part of integrating women into

323
00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:56,840
Speaker 5: the combat units, and he proudly talked about it. And

324
00:15:56,880 --> 00:16:01,520
Speaker 5: when I was like, well, you know, they're less combat effect. Oh,

325
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:03,800
Speaker 5: it's like, do you think men and women are not

326
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:04,640
Speaker 5: physically different?

327
00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:06,920
Speaker 4: Are we going down that train at this point?

328
00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:09,920
Speaker 5: So they just rationalize it to go along to get

329
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:12,920
Speaker 5: their stars and then get their job in corporate America

330
00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:16,480
Speaker 5: and some defense contractor and where they keep making money.

331
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:19,200
Speaker 5: They're just listening to the politicians and ignoring their old

332
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:19,720
Speaker 5: of office.

333
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:24,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, countries led by militaries led by General Raytheon. Now

334
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 1: this freaking blows me away. Pete, my brother, thank you.

335
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:32,600
Speaker 1: I appreciate you very much. All Right, we have a

336
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 1: lot more. You thought you thought that January sixth, people

337
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:39,520
Speaker 1: going to prison were the only ones. You thought Donald

338
00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:42,280
Speaker 1: Trump being convicted possibly sent to prison was the only one.

339
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:45,840
Speaker 1: As I have said, without real retribution, this doesn't stop.

340
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:48,000
Speaker 1: Another Trump ally is about to go to prison. We'll

341
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:50,240
Speaker 1: talk about that next. Before we talk about that, let

342
00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:54,920
Speaker 1: me talk to you about your cell phone company. Look,

343
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:59,120
Speaker 1: these cell phone companies are awful. Almost all the more.

344
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,720
Speaker 1: They're awful because they take on money. You say you

345
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 1: pay your cell phone bill automatically, we all do. You

346
00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:06,840
Speaker 1: put in your credit card and gets paid automatically every

347
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:09,359
Speaker 1: single month. And then they take your money and they

348
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:11,720
Speaker 1: send it to play Parenthood, they send it to Black

349
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,920
Speaker 1: Lives Matter, they send it to all these disgusting group

350
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:18,360
Speaker 1: Pride Month stuff. You don't need Verizon, you don't need

351
00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:20,679
Speaker 1: AT and T. You don't need T Mobile. There's a

352
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:25,480
Speaker 1: patriotic cell phone company that shares and promotes your values.

353
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,800
Speaker 1: Your bill will get cut in half. Minded my bill

354
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:32,239
Speaker 1: got cut in half. You don't sacrifice coverage. You can

355
00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:34,960
Speaker 1: keep your phone, keep your number. It's pure talk. Man,

356
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:39,240
Speaker 1: switch to pure Talk anniversary of D Day. Puretalk CEO

358
00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:44,920
Speaker 1: adamant about America and Americans.

359

Speaker 2: Switch save money.

360
00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:52,560
Speaker 1: There's no reason not to puretalk dot com slash jessetv

361
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:54,199
Speaker 1: go switch.

362
00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:55,000
Speaker 2: We'll be bad.

363
00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:05,960
Speaker 1: All right, Let's address something real quick before we move

364
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:07,320
Speaker 1: on to the rest of our show.

365
00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:10,480
Speaker 2: Steve Bannon is going to jail now.

366
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:14,920
Speaker 1: Department of Justice has taken yet another Trump aid and

367
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:18,520
Speaker 1: throwing him in jail. And I just want to once

368
00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:22,640
Speaker 1: again emphasize that I know what I'm about to say

369
00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:27,000
Speaker 1: is ugly. I know it is uncomfortable. I know it's

370
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:28,879
Speaker 1: not who you want to be. I know it's not

371
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:30,960
Speaker 1: the country you want to live in, and it's not

372
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,240
Speaker 1: the kind of country I want to live in either.

373
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:38,280
Speaker 1: We have to start arresting Democrats and throwing them in prison.

374
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:44,639
Speaker 1: Republican ags and red states have to begin arresting Democrat

375
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:46,600
Speaker 1: congressman senators.

376
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:48,160
Speaker 2: There should already be.

377
00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:50,640
Speaker 1: An arrest warrant issued for Joe Biden the day he's

378
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 1: out of the presidency. We have to begin arresting Democrats,

379
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:57,360
Speaker 1: putting them on trial, convicting them, and throwing.

380
00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:57,719
Speaker 2: Them in prison.

381
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:02,720
Speaker 1: I know that's terrible do, but the truth is they're

382
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 1: not going to stop. They've been arresting these poor January

383
00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:09,439
Speaker 1: sixth people for years. They're gunning them down in Utah.

384
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:13,520
Speaker 1: They're throwing pro lifers in prison. They're disbarring Trump's attorneys.

385
00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:17,119
Speaker 1: Trump himself may go to jail now, Bannon's going to jail.

386
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 1: These people are not backing off or slowing down because

387
00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:22,760
Speaker 1: you're mad or I'm mad, and they won't.

388
00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:24,320
Speaker 2: They're ramping up.

389
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:29,320
Speaker 1: They're ramping up because we refuse to respond in kind.

390
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:35,960
Speaker 1: Without arrests, without Democrats going to prison, we cannot save

391
00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:38,600
Speaker 1: the country because we can't stop them from doing what

392
00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:41,880
Speaker 1: they're doing. They will never stop ever unless we make

393
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:45,960
Speaker 1: them stop. I heard Andrew McCabe on CNN. He said

394
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:47,840
Speaker 1: this today, and I'll tell you what. I stood up

395
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:49,760
Speaker 1: and cheered. He's of course lying, but I wish she

396
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:50,679
Speaker 1: was telling the truth.

397
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:58,240
Speaker 7: He runs the risk of really dismantling and greatly incapacitating

398
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,760
Speaker 7: the Department of Justice and the FBI. I have a

399
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:06,520
Speaker 7: lot of conversations with former colleagues, people who are or

400
00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:10,160
Speaker 7: were in the intelligence and law enforcement community and may

401
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:14,240
Speaker 7: have worked in the Obama administration other places, and you know,

402
00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:16,399
Speaker 7: people are really trying to assess, like what is life

403
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:19,800
Speaker 7: going to be like if Donald Trump wins a second term?

404
00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 7: And on a very personal level, I mean, these are

405
00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:25,520
Speaker 7: tortuous discussions with their family members about whether or not

406
00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:30,879
Speaker 7: they have to leave the country to avoid being unconstitutionally

407
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:33,920
Speaker 7: and illegally detained. I mean, people are actually worried about

408
00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:37,199
Speaker 7: being thrown in jail or grabbed in some sort of

409
00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:39,200
Speaker 7: extra judicial detention.

410
00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:44,320
Speaker 1: Okay, first of all, let's be clear Donald Trump's not

411
00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:47,000
Speaker 1: going to do that. He's on social media still bragging

412
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,320
Speaker 1: about building the FBI a new building. He's not going

413
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:51,480
Speaker 1: to do that. If he was going to do that,

414
00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:53,719
Speaker 1: if Donald Trump got up today and announced that he

415
00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 1: intends to arrest and imprison a bunch of FBI agents,

416
00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:00,840
Speaker 1: I would publicly max donate to his campaign. I would

417
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:03,640
Speaker 1: call every rich guy I know in fundraise for him.

418
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:05,640
Speaker 1: I would make phone calls for him. I would knock

419
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,320
Speaker 1: on doors for him. In my maga hat. That is

420
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:12,160
Speaker 1: exactly what must happen in order to save the country.

421
00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:15,200
Speaker 1: Andrew McCabe is, of course lying, or his friends are lying.

422
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:17,520
Speaker 1: None of these people have any fear at all.

423
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:19,800
Speaker 2: And that is the problem.

424
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:25,359
Speaker 1: Unless the bad guys start being afraid, we cannot save America.

425
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:29,080
Speaker 1: We can't normal our way back into saving our country.

426
00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:34,320
Speaker 1: That's simply a fact. All right, all right now, I'm

427
00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:36,440
Speaker 1: a little wound up today. You know why I'm a

428
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 1: little wound up today. It's actually not the news stories.

429
00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:41,399
Speaker 1: I just keep knocking out eight hours of sleep and

430
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:43,479
Speaker 1: eight hours of sleep and eight hours of sleep.

431
00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:46,199
Speaker 2: It's just consistent, over and over and over again. How

432
00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:46,920
Speaker 2: do I do that?

433
00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:50,200
Speaker 1: Well, if there's ever a night where I feel like

434
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:52,120
Speaker 1: I'm not going to sleep. Maybe I had an afternoon

435
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:53,600
Speaker 1: cup of coffee, which I shouldn't do.

436
00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:57,200
Speaker 2: I just reach for dream powder. Isn't that a cool

437
00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:58,159
Speaker 2: name for it? Beam?

438
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:01,119
Speaker 1: They came up with this stuff called called dream powder.

439
00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:04,119
Speaker 1: Now it's all natural. It's all natural, and the beauty

440
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:06,600
Speaker 1: of that is not the taste, even though it's wonderful.

441
00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 2: Mine is cinnamon chocolate.

442
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,119
Speaker 1: I essentially have a cup of cinnamon hot chocolate for

443
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:12,160
Speaker 1: dinner or after dinner.

444
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:16,440
Speaker 2: I have that before bed because it's natural.

445
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:20,320
Speaker 1: I not only go to sleep, I wake up and

446
00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:23,680
Speaker 1: I feel great. I don't wake up and feel heavy

447
00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:26,359
Speaker 1: and groggy like you do when you take things to sleep.

448
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:29,120
Speaker 1: Beam doesn't do that. You wake up, You're ready to go?

00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:45,920
Speaker 2: We'll be back.

454
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:58,320
Speaker 8: Hunter Biden struggled with addiction. We are a country that

455
00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:03,040
Speaker 8: has been riddled with addiction. And you know a percentage

456
00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:06,320
Speaker 8: of this population has struggled with fent and al and

457
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:09,439
Speaker 8: all sorts of opioids, and you know, this is addiction

458
00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:12,800
Speaker 8: is a real American problem. So the fact that they're

459
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:15,720
Speaker 8: kind of they keep hammering him on being an addict,

460
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:18,560
Speaker 8: on having a gun, you know, and also on having

461
00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 8: a gun, which Republicans really like guns. So I think

462
00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:23,920
Speaker 8: it's going to be I think this is going to

463
00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:26,080
Speaker 8: keep going. But I do think Biden has a really

464
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:29,160
Speaker 8: good opportunity here to say the laws the law for everyone,

465
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:32,919
Speaker 8: be at my son or Donald Trump. You know, this

466
00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:35,119
Speaker 8: is the way it works in this country.

467
00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:40,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, if Hunter Biden gets convicted, Joe Biden's going to

468
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:42,879
Speaker 1: wait about fifteen minutes before he pardons it. But I

469
00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:45,280
Speaker 1: don't think he's going to get convicted anyway. I'm curious

470
00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:47,000
Speaker 1: what Margot has to say about it.

471
00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:48,440
Speaker 2: Mark joining me now.

472
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:52,080
Speaker 1: Margot Cleveland's senior legal correspondent with The Federalist, and actually

473
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:55,439
Speaker 1: you have a piece up about all this in the Federalist. Margo,

474
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:56,720
Speaker 1: what do you say and what do you think?

475
00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:02,320
Speaker 9: Well, first, I just have to at that SoundBite you played.

476
00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:06,160
Speaker 9: The reason they're focusing on Hunter Biden being an addict

477
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:08,560
Speaker 9: is because that is one of the things they have

478
00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:10,760
Speaker 9: to prove in this case that he either is an

479
00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:14,480
Speaker 9: addict or that he was using drugs, and they've presented

480
00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:18,800
Speaker 9: evidence of both. The other thing is Republicans, Yeah, we

481
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:23,800
Speaker 9: love the right to bear arms, but we always say legally,

482
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,760
Speaker 9: we don't want people who aren't supposed to be possessing

483
00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:30,760
Speaker 9: them possessing them. It's the Democrats who think all guns

484
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:33,919
Speaker 9: should be gone no matter what. It's the violation of

485
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:37,320
Speaker 9: the law that hunter Biden did that is the problem here.

486
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:41,119
Speaker 9: But I'm with you. I don't think that the jury

487
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:43,600
Speaker 9: is going to convict him. I think all you have

488
00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 9: to do is look what the breakdown in the city

489
00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:51,800
Speaker 9: was for voting, and it was actually higher pro Biden

490
00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:56,399
Speaker 9: over Trump in twenty twenty than in Manhattan. So I

491
00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:58,560
Speaker 9: don't see that we're going to see a conviction in

492
00:24:58,600 --> 00:24:59,080
Speaker 9: this case.

493
00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:05,199
Speaker 1: Okay, now you need to explain that to me, Margo.

494
00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:08,600
Speaker 1: How could there not be a conviction when it's my

495
00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:10,959
Speaker 1: understanding and obviously, as you know, I'm not the lawyer

496
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:13,959
Speaker 1: you are. This is as black and white as it gets.

497
00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:16,720
Speaker 1: He lied on this form when I filled out many

498
00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:19,680
Speaker 1: times to purchase the firearm. He lied about it. It's

499
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:22,639
Speaker 1: black and white evidence. Because this freakin' moron wrote a

500
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:25,359
Speaker 1: book about being an addict while he lied about the form.

501
00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:29,159
Speaker 1: It's dead right, So I mean Johnny Cochran couldn't get

502
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:29,639
Speaker 1: him out of this.

503
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:30,600
Speaker 2: How could he get out of this?

504
00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:33,480
Speaker 9: Margot, Well, there are two things here we have to

505
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:36,400
Speaker 9: keep in mind. Is what is the idea of jury nullification?

506
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:39,399
Speaker 9: The jury says, yes, we can and we will follow

507
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:42,320
Speaker 9: the law. It doesn't mean that when they get back

508
00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:45,639
Speaker 9: in the jury box that one person won't convince the

509
00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:49,520
Speaker 9: others that look, yes he was an addict, Yes he lied,

510
00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:53,320
Speaker 9: but he's turned his life around. And really this is

511
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:55,040
Speaker 9: something that five.

512
00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:58,080
Speaker 10: Years ago they didn't pursue. Why are they doing it now.

513
00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:00,760
Speaker 9: It's a political reason that their pursuit doing it now,

514
00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:03,080
Speaker 9: and therefore we should let him off.

515
00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:05,480
Speaker 10: So that's the idea of jury nullification.

516
00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:09,000
Speaker 9: And then the second part of that is they have

517
00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:14,679
Speaker 9: to prove intent and juries aren't always the brightest bulb

518
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:19,480
Speaker 9: in the box. And Hunter Biden's got some really good

519
00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:23,000
Speaker 9: attorneys who can try to convince them that in his mind,

520
00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:27,959
Speaker 9: he wasn't an addict because he was in rehab, in

521
00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:31,679
Speaker 9: his mind, he wasn't a user, or he wasn't using

522
00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:33,320
Speaker 9: because he wasn't using.

523
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:34,639
Speaker 10: The moment he purchased the gun.

524
00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:37,920
Speaker 9: Now the evidence is overwhelming that both of those should

525
00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:42,160
Speaker 9: be rejected, but again, the jury might decide otherwise for it.

526
00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:45,560
Speaker 9: But another thing I think is important to keep in

527
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:49,200
Speaker 9: mind is, even if Hunter Biden is convicted of this,

528
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:53,080
Speaker 9: it isn't somehow showing that we have one standard of

529
00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:58,560
Speaker 9: justice under the law Hunter Biden, those on the Bidens

530
00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:03,040
Speaker 9: side of the equation, the folks in the DOJ, they

531
00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:06,399
Speaker 9: did everything they could to prevent this case from coming

532
00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:09,600
Speaker 9: to trial. And if you contrast that with what happened

533
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:12,840
Speaker 9: with Donald Trump, it was all of the outsiders doing

534
00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:16,679
Speaker 9: everything they could to get a case against Donald Trump.

535
00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 10: So even if Hunter.

536
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:22,280
Speaker 9: Is eventually convicted on this or on the tax case,

537
00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:26,000
Speaker 9: it doesn't show that there's this one standard of justice.

538
00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:30,479
Speaker 9: What it shows is that the two standards of justice

539
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:35,040
Speaker 9: failed to actually get the results that they wanted. They

540
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:38,560
Speaker 9: wanted Hunter to walk on this, It just didn't fly

541
00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:42,679
Speaker 9: because of the whistleblowers.

542
00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:47,560
Speaker 1: Margo sentencing, What do you expect for Hunter? And I

543
00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:50,040
Speaker 1: might as well just go ahead and ask the follow up, now,

544
00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:52,399
Speaker 1: what do you expect for Donald Trump?

545
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:53,760
Speaker 2: Right?

546
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:59,360
Speaker 9: So I would not be surprised if Hunter has a

547
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:03,040
Speaker 9: sentence that does not require any jail time. There is

548
00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:06,320
Speaker 9: a lot of discretion under the federal statutes. In the guidelines,

549
00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:08,359
Speaker 9: I'd have to double check to make sure there's no

550
00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 9: mandatory minimum of imprisonment by statute. If there isn't, then

551
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:16,160
Speaker 9: I would say there's not going to be any jail

552
00:28:16,200 --> 00:28:20,240
Speaker 9: time because he did, as far as we can tell,

553
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:23,960
Speaker 9: has his addiction under control, which is a great thing.

554
00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:27,720
Speaker 9: As the sound bite said, there are a lot of

555
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:30,720
Speaker 9: addicts in this country. It's a horrible thing. And if

556
00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:34,440
Speaker 9: he actually has it under control, that's great. And on

557
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:38,360
Speaker 9: this chart, maybe no jail time for Donald Trump. It

558
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:43,120
Speaker 9: is impossible to tell, because this judge is so wacky

559
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:46,680
Speaker 9: that I could see him ordering him Donald Trump to

560
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:49,720
Speaker 9: go directly to jail, trying to keep him out of

561
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:54,960
Speaker 9: the Republican Convention. It shouldn't be a matter of jail

562
00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:58,160
Speaker 9: time because of the type of offense it was, which

563
00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:01,520
Speaker 9: was a made up offense. We're really misdemeanors that the

564
00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:06,320
Speaker 9: statueta limitations ran out. But it is impossible to predict

565
00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:07,680
Speaker 9: what this judge will do.

566
00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:13,800
Speaker 1: Margot, who's going to step in, if anybody, and save

567
00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:17,280
Speaker 1: Trump from this, overturn this conviction. I know Trump has

568
00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:19,520
Speaker 1: been harpened at the Supreme Court to step in.

569
00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:21,920
Speaker 2: Are they going to? Is that a good idea?

570
00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:24,239
Speaker 1: Surely someone's going to step in and toss all this

571
00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:26,200
Speaker 1: out right, And if they are, when are they going

572
00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:26,640
Speaker 1: to do it?

573
00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:29,640
Speaker 10: Well, no one is going to step in.

574
00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:32,440
Speaker 9: It's going to be a matter of Donald Trump's legal

575
00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:36,760
Speaker 9: team filing a challenge and whether he does this first

576
00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:39,800
Speaker 9: in the state court, which is the typical process, or

577
00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:43,280
Speaker 9: somehow tries to bring this in the federal court first.

578
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:48,280
Speaker 9: I highly doubt that will happen because under the federal system,

579
00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:51,760
Speaker 9: you're supposed to exhaust all of your state court remedies

580
00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:55,160
Speaker 9: before you jump over to federal court. I could see

581
00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:59,200
Speaker 9: his attorneys trying to go straight to the highest court

582
00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:02,880
Speaker 9: in New York and trying to get them to do

583
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:06,640
Speaker 9: an expedited appeal to throw the conviction out, and then

584
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:10,239
Speaker 9: if that does not happen, that he then goes and

585
00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:12,480
Speaker 9: tries to get the Supreme Court to take it from

586
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:15,200
Speaker 9: there based on due process claims.

587
00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:17,240
Speaker 10: Because this is a state court conviction.

588
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:21,080
Speaker 9: The only way the Supreme Court can intervene is if

589
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:23,640
Speaker 9: Trump's lawyers have a basis to bring it to the

590
00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:28,120
Speaker 9: court and they do a violation of Donald Trump's due

591
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:30,440
Speaker 9: process rights would be a way to get it to

592
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:32,520
Speaker 9: the Supreme Court. But there's going to have to be

593
00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:35,560
Speaker 9: at least one step in the state court system before

594
00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:37,640
Speaker 9: it gets to the US Supreme Court.

595
00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:41,840
Speaker 1: Okay, so Supreme Court's not going to swoop in here

596
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,200
Speaker 1: and save the day in the next ten minutes before

597
00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:45,280
Speaker 1: I let you go, Margo.

598
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:46,520
Speaker 2: The US Supreme Court.

599
00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:49,520
Speaker 1: It's very obvious to me from the outside looking in

600
00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:51,719
Speaker 1: that the commies in this country are running it up

601
00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:53,000
Speaker 1: against the Supreme Court.

602
00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:56,440
Speaker 2: They've threatened them all the time. They threaten them with legislation.

603
00:30:56,960 --> 00:30:59,920
Speaker 1: One of these dirty street monsters tried to kill Kavanaugh.

604
00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:01,600
Speaker 2: They're protesting in front of their house.

605
00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:05,480
Speaker 1: It's very obvious they're going after the Supreme Court. Are

606
00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:09,040
Speaker 1: they going to end up being successful in that?

607
00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:09,719
Speaker 10: They aren't?

608
00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:13,120
Speaker 9: And this is really to me it looks like a

609
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:16,160
Speaker 9: ploy to get votes. They're trying to make the Supreme

610
00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:19,120
Speaker 9: Court an issue, and they don't have.

611
00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:20,240
Speaker 10: Anything else they can go on.

612
00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:25,240
Speaker 9: With Joe Biden, he's been a failure on everything, inflation,

613
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:26,680
Speaker 9: the economy.

614
00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:27,680
Speaker 10: Foreign affairs, the border.

615
00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:30,800
Speaker 9: So what are they going to do that the Supreme

616
00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:33,600
Speaker 9: Court is controlled by the president. And look what Trump

617
00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:37,920
Speaker 9: has done by appointing these right wing wackos who have

618
00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:38,840
Speaker 9: no ethics.

619
00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:41,280
Speaker 10: So it's not going to work.

620
00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:45,120
Speaker 9: But it's not going to work from the judicial standpoint.

621
00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:50,320
Speaker 9: It might have some vote getting by the political you know,

622
00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:52,160
Speaker 9: the political basis of it.

623
00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:59,800
Speaker 2: Margo, thank you so much. I appreciate it. All right, Doctor,

624
00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:01,760
Speaker 2: you remember her, don't you.

625
00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:05,560
Speaker 1: She's still out there running her mouth on TV about

626
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:08,240
Speaker 1: new things that you need to do. I need to

627
00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:10,920
Speaker 1: do new ways we can destroy the economy. Of course,

628
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:12,960
Speaker 1: in the name of medicine and science. We'll talk to

629
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:16,160
Speaker 1: comedian my friend Dave Smith next about that. Before we

630
00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:21,640
Speaker 1: talked to Dave, let's talk about the headache of a

631
00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:24,560
Speaker 1: time share you don't want anymore? Do you have one

632
00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:28,440
Speaker 1: of those? It's very common if you're in this situation.

633
00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:31,400
Speaker 1: Don't think that you're alone, okay, and don't feel like

634
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:33,240
Speaker 1: some kind of an idiot. Oh, I can't believe I

635
00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:35,880
Speaker 1: didn't read the fine print. You get in these time shares,

636
00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:38,000
Speaker 1: and then when it comes to time to get out,

637
00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:40,840
Speaker 1: the time share company tries to drop that bomb on you.

638
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:44,240
Speaker 1: Ooh yeah, sorry, you signed the contract. You're not allowed out.

639
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:46,880
Speaker 1: So what do you do you call you email please,

640
00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:49,600
Speaker 1: and they say no, no, no, no, pay your annual fees.

641
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:54,640
Speaker 1: Call loan Star Transfer instead. Stop calling the time share company.

642
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:58,080
Speaker 1: You already know their answer. Call Loan Star Transfer. This

643
00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:01,440
Speaker 1: is a family business. They've been doing this for a

644
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:08,040
Speaker 1: long time. Over twenty thousand timeshare owners are free, legally

645
00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:11,040
Speaker 1: and permanently free of their timeshare because they called lone

646
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:11,920
Speaker 1: Star Transfer.

647
00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:15,720
Speaker 2: They're successful ninety nine percent of the time.

648
00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:18,520
Speaker 1: Just call them and they'll get you out, all right,

649
00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:23,800
Speaker 1: eight four four three one zero two six four six,

650
00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:25,120
Speaker 1: We'll be back.

651
00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:37,480
Speaker 11: I'm making the personal sacrifices not to infect my parents

652
00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:38,640
Speaker 11: and my pregnant daughter.

653
00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:41,680
Speaker 12: I worry about that because then it gives people.

654
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:45,200
Speaker 11: The option to say, well, bars and restaurants are open.

655
00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:49,000
Speaker 11: Then I can have twenty people over for Thanksgiving, and

656
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:52,400
Speaker 11: so I don't like it to be any number. I

657
00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:56,719
Speaker 11: like it to be keep it to your immediate household.

658
00:33:57,800 --> 00:34:01,239
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I've almost said. I almost forgot that the

659
00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:04,360
Speaker 1: interviewer used to sit so far away during the interviews.

660
00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:06,080
Speaker 2: It's such a stupid time.

661
00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:09,759
Speaker 1: And remember remember that evil witch you just saw there

662
00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:12,480
Speaker 1: About the time that interview wrapped up, she popped the

663
00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:14,480
Speaker 1: micro she popped the ear piece oute of her ear

664
00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:16,840
Speaker 1: and went and partied with all of her extended family.

665
00:34:17,120 --> 00:34:19,080
Speaker 1: That's that's the kind of people who run this country.

666
00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:22,080
Speaker 1: Now joining me now my friend comedian Dave Smith. He

667
00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:25,359
Speaker 1: hosts the part of the Problem podcast, which I would

668
00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:26,320
Speaker 1: highly recommend.

669
00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:26,600
Speaker 5: Dave.

670
00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:29,799
Speaker 1: I still get angry about all that crap I do,

671
00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:33,120
Speaker 1: but it's so ridiculous when I see the old videos

672
00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:33,480
Speaker 1: and just.

673
00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:34,520
Speaker 2: The laughter comes out of me.

674
00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:37,319
Speaker 1: Man, what a what a ridiculous nation we turned into

675
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:38,560
Speaker 1: because of a chess cold.

676
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:41,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh, good to see you, Jesse.

677
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:43,360
Speaker 6: And it is even as you're playing that clip, like

678
00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:45,479
Speaker 6: I haven't seen that one in forever, and.

679
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:48,120
Speaker 2: It is just like it's like, was it all a dream?

680
00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:49,080
Speaker 2: Did that really?

681
00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:53,399
Speaker 6: Did we really allow our nation to be so degradated

682
00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:56,120
Speaker 6: as humiliated that this by the way, you know what

683
00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:58,040
Speaker 6: I completely forgot about it is like, oh, yeah, remember

684
00:34:58,040 --> 00:34:59,759
Speaker 6: they had that death count up on the side of

685
00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:01,920
Speaker 6: sea and then for the entire year of twenty twenty

686
00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:04,719
Speaker 6: until Joe Biden got sworn in and then they just

687
00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:07,920
Speaker 6: pretended like it didn't exist anymore. But it was just

688
00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:11,359
Speaker 6: it was what a wild time and of you know,

689
00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:14,319
Speaker 6: watching the as I was just watching some of the

690
00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:17,120
Speaker 6: Fauci hearings. It's just amazing how much they all have

691
00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:19,440
Speaker 6: to walk away from it, like they can't. They can't

692
00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:21,759
Speaker 6: defend one inch of the insanity.

693
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:26,319
Speaker 2: No, the can'ts No one can.

694
00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:27,200
Speaker 11: Now.

695
00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:30,479
Speaker 1: All you get is either flat out denials or they'll

696
00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:31,440
Speaker 1: get this candy.

697
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:33,720
Speaker 2: I can't say that word on a family show.

698
00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:36,520
Speaker 1: That you get this response of well, nobody knew, which.

699
00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:38,239
Speaker 2: Is of course garbage. Tons of people knew.

700
00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:40,080
Speaker 1: They were all the people who got censored off of

701
00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:43,520
Speaker 1: social media. Speaking of Burks here she was along those lines.

702
00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:48,400
Speaker 13: Do you think there is any veracity to some of

703
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:54,359
Speaker 13: the Republican accusations that there was an effort to discredit

704
00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:56,760
Speaker 13: the lab leak theory.

705
00:35:57,560 --> 00:36:01,240
Speaker 12: I think early on people did take very definitive sides,

706
00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:04,480
Speaker 12: and it did divide along party lines, and we're still

707
00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:06,839
Speaker 12: suffering from that four years later in a whole set

708
00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:09,640
Speaker 12: of issues related to pandemic and pandemic preparedness.

709
00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:11,920
Speaker 14: Sure, but on the laveleak specifically, you think that happened.

710
00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:13,440
Speaker 12: I do think it happened.

711
00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:18,520
Speaker 2: It was a love leak. We know they covered it up.

712
00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:20,120
Speaker 2: They just they lie about everything.

713
00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:24,560
Speaker 6: Yeah, and you know, as is often the case, they

714
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:27,160
Speaker 6: kind of project this thing onto the Republicans that I

715
00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:30,520
Speaker 6: wish was true. Like they're like, well it it was

716
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:33,080
Speaker 6: a partisan issue, and the Republicans were all talking about.

717
00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:34,120
Speaker 2: No, I'm sorry.

718
00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:37,959
Speaker 6: The overwhelming majority of Republicans tucked their tail between their legs,

719
00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:40,600
Speaker 6: said yeah, yeah, yeah, LAB leak is a conspiracy, and

720
00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:44,520
Speaker 6: then proceeded to push lockdown policies just like the Democrats did.

721
00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:48,320
Speaker 6: There's a couple of exceptions, you know, obviously Dessanta's walked

722
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:49,840
Speaker 6: back lockdowns in Florida.

723
00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:53,040
Speaker 2: Nome was solid on it the whole way through. But

724
00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:53,680
Speaker 2: that's it.

725
00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:56,719
Speaker 6: Everybody, every other Republican was just as bad as the

726
00:36:56,719 --> 00:37:01,279
Speaker 6: Democrats on this. But look, they there's such an asymmetry

727
00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:05,160
Speaker 6: here where she goes, well, there was this tendency to,

728
00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:08,840
Speaker 6: you know, plant your foot in the ground and stick.

729
00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:10,160
Speaker 2: With your side of the issue.

730
00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:12,840
Speaker 6: It's like, yeah, but the asymmetry there is that everyone

731
00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:16,840
Speaker 6: from all of the halls of power, including both political parties,

732
00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:21,719
Speaker 6: the entire corporate media, and the tech overlords all decided

733
00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:24,560
Speaker 6: that you would have your life ruined if you talked

734
00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:27,680
Speaker 6: about this coming from the LAB, which was obvious by

735
00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:30,520
Speaker 6: April of twenty twenty I mean, I remember the first

736
00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:32,840
Speaker 6: time I heard it was in April of twenty twenty.

737
00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:35,719
Speaker 6: Was the first time that I heard that there were

738
00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:39,520
Speaker 6: three or four scientists from the Wuhan lab who had

739
00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:43,200
Speaker 6: been hospitalized in late November to early December with COVID

740
00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:46,520
Speaker 6: like symptoms. And that was about it for me. I

741
00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:49,520
Speaker 6: was like, Okay, well, then, obviously this is what happened.

742
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:52,560
Speaker 6: They already knew that the bats that they thought had

743
00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:55,600
Speaker 6: it weren't within a couple hundred miles of the wet markets.

744
00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:57,359
Speaker 2: It just none of it made any sense.

745
00:37:57,400 --> 00:37:59,840
Speaker 6: It was obvious what this was from the beginning, and

746
00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:03,640
Speaker 6: their side covered it up because they funded gain and

747
00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:07,400
Speaker 6: function research at this lab, so it's quite a cope

748
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:09,080
Speaker 6: to spin that as well.

749
00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:11,160
Speaker 2: Both sides just dug in like.

750
00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:15,040
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, I forgot we all got it from a

751
00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:18,160
Speaker 1: bowl of bat soup. They actually sold that to us,

752
00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:19,600
Speaker 1: like I just can't.

753
00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:20,560
Speaker 2: I can't leave these people.

754
00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:25,279
Speaker 1: And to reinforce Dave's point, almost every single republic and

755
00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:27,160
Speaker 1: there are a couple he didn't name, there ran Paul

756
00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:29,920
Speaker 1: Thomas Massey types, but almost every one of.

757
00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:32,160
Speaker 2: Them stood there the stupid mask.

758
00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:35,839
Speaker 1: On bragging that about how vaccinated they were it was pathetic.

759
00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:39,120
Speaker 1: You know what along those lines, Dave, is that why

760
00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:40,360
Speaker 1: we're never going to get a reckoning.

761
00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:41,719
Speaker 2: I'm not naive. I want one.

762
00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:44,160
Speaker 1: I want all these people rested and thrown in federal prison.

763
00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:46,359
Speaker 1: But I know this is never going to happen, and

764
00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:48,200
Speaker 1: I just I have this theory that it's never going

765
00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:50,600
Speaker 1: to happen because we would have to throw so many

766
00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:54,279
Speaker 1: from our side right in there beside them.

767
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:55,200
Speaker 2: Yeah.

768
00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:57,200
Speaker 6: Well, listen, first of all, you're absolutely right to point

769
00:38:57,239 --> 00:38:59,560
Speaker 6: out Massi and round Paul, who were both heroic during

770
00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:03,160
Speaker 6: the whole thing. There are a handful of Republicans who

771
00:39:03,160 --> 00:39:05,719
Speaker 6: are truly outsiders, and I don't just mean on the

772
00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:08,400
Speaker 6: COVID issue, but on other issues in general. You have

773
00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:12,080
Speaker 6: people like Matt Gates and Marjorie Taylor Green and people

774
00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:16,040
Speaker 6: like that who do not They're not simply with the party.

775
00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:20,200
Speaker 6: But I think the reality that we live under is that.

776
00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:24,480
Speaker 6: Look Donald Trump say in twenty sixteen when he ran

777
00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:27,279
Speaker 6: and won the White House, he was as much a

778
00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:30,360
Speaker 6: repudiation of the Republicans as he was of the Democrats.

779
00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:32,600
Speaker 6: I mean, he told Jeb Bush to his face that

780
00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:36,680
Speaker 6: his brother lied us into war. And Donald Trump was

781
00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:40,480
Speaker 6: he was essentially a third party candidate, winning from within

782
00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:44,160
Speaker 6: one of the major parties. But the problem that we

783
00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:47,680
Speaker 6: have is that the establishment of the Republican Party, like

784
00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:51,680
Speaker 6: not the six people we just named, but everyone else,

785
00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:55,600
Speaker 6: is indistinguishable from the establishment of the Democratic Party. And

786
00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:58,520
Speaker 6: whether you know, obviously COVID was a major issue, they

787
00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:02,360
Speaker 6: were identical on that. So when it comes to monetary policy,

788
00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:07,279
Speaker 6: foreign policy, government spending money, you know, like I said,

789
00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:10,479
Speaker 6: monetary policy, when it comes to the shadowy three letter

790
00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:13,160
Speaker 6: agencies who have a lot more control over our government

791
00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:17,680
Speaker 6: than our elected officials, almost every issue that matters. If

792
00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:21,239
Speaker 6: you run down the list, there is no daylight between

793
00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:23,239
Speaker 6: the establishment of the Democratic Party and.

794
00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:24,240
Speaker 2: The Republican Party.

795
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:27,840
Speaker 6: And so yeah, in order to have any real change

796
00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:31,319
Speaker 6: in this country, or to even get an investigation, let

797
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:34,840
Speaker 6: alone an investigation we could actually trust that would actually

798
00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:37,440
Speaker 6: shed some light on anything, You're going to have to

799
00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:41,360
Speaker 6: make good on Donald Trump's original promise of draining the swamp.

800
00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:43,400
Speaker 2: And that's no small undertaking.

801
00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:47,160
Speaker 6: And if Donald Trump's going to get that right this time,

802
00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:49,719
Speaker 6: he's going to have to be much much better at

803
00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:54,520
Speaker 6: appointing people around him, appointing real outsiders and not swamp creatures,

804
00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:56,480
Speaker 6: and he's going to have to be willing to kind

805
00:40:56,520 --> 00:41:00,600
Speaker 6: of Malay style take an acts to the federal government

806
00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:06,000
Speaker 6: that means abolishing, abolishing agencies, drastic cuts and government spending.

807
00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:08,800
Speaker 6: I'm not sure I've seen any indication that he's really

808
00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:11,040
Speaker 6: learned this lesson yet and he's up to it for

809
00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:11,640
Speaker 6: round two.

810
00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:15,839
Speaker 2: But we'll say, oh, gosh.

811
00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:18,680
Speaker 1: What if what if someone were to cut government agencies

812
00:41:18,719 --> 00:41:19,160
Speaker 1: to zero?

813
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:19,680
Speaker 4: Gosh?

814
00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:20,920
Speaker 2: That would be glorious. You know what.

815
00:41:21,040 --> 00:41:24,640
Speaker 1: I can't possibly let you go without playing this little.

816
00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:27,200
Speaker 2: Back and forth you had with Chris Cuomo. Here it was.

817
00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:29,640
Speaker 15: And by the way, I don't like what people did

818
00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:31,040
Speaker 15: the Joe Rogan about ivermectin.

819
00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:31,960
Speaker 2: I don't who did it?

820
00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:37,040
Speaker 14: No, no, no, yes you did, dude, find the quits

821
00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:38,280
Speaker 14: you shamed Joe Rogan.

822
00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:39,880
Speaker 2: Hold on, let's play the quart.

823
00:41:42,120 --> 00:41:47,040
Speaker 14: Getting injecting drugs for animals and horse.

824
00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:51,160
Speaker 15: And people telling them to what person you know you

825
00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:52,960
Speaker 15: talk about like, you know, cancel culture and who to

826
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:55,800
Speaker 15: shame ivermectin a de wormer.

827
00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:57,239
Speaker 4: Really, they are.

828
00:41:57,160 --> 00:42:00,000
Speaker 2: Shaming themselves, That's what it is. They're shaming them.

829
00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:03,839
Speaker 14: So you're taking a d warmer right now. You can't

830
00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:06,600
Speaker 14: apologize for that this. You weren't being clear that it

831
00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:06,840
Speaker 14: was this.

832
00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:07,680
Speaker 4: And you know that.

833
00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:10,680
Speaker 14: Dude, you're being so dishonest right now. You were talking

834
00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:13,680
Speaker 14: about ivermectin, the drug. You were not talking about this

835
00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:15,160
Speaker 14: version of ivermectin.

836
00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:15,600
Speaker 1: Come on.

837
00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:17,239
Speaker 4: I was responding to a.

838
00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:20,160
Speaker 15: Situation where we were told that this is what people

839
00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:22,680
Speaker 15: were searching out to take and nobody knew what it

840
00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:26,120
Speaker 15: was going to do to them. Look, I'm taking the

841
00:42:26,239 --> 00:42:29,160
Speaker 15: drug right now. Obviously I don't think it's all poison.

842
00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:33,080
Speaker 2: They I'll just let you have it, buddy.

843
00:42:34,320 --> 00:42:36,040
Speaker 6: Oh man, I mean, look, I don't know what I

844
00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:38,319
Speaker 6: could even add to that that you didn't see right there.

845
00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:40,160
Speaker 2: It was a very surreal moment.

846
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:44,160
Speaker 6: It's it's surreal for me because I'm you know, I'm me,

847
00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:46,880
Speaker 6: and here I get this one on one debate with

848
00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:50,080
Speaker 6: the guy who had the biggest show on CNN at

849
00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:52,319
Speaker 6: the time when all of this was happening, and I

850
00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:54,319
Speaker 6: was kind of curious going into it. I was like,

851
00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:56,719
Speaker 6: what is he possibly going to say? What could his

852
00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:59,359
Speaker 6: defense for all of this possibly be? And then it's

853
00:42:59,440 --> 00:43:02,359
Speaker 6: just that just lying through his teeth. Oh I never

854
00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:04,480
Speaker 6: did that. And then when the video comes up of

855
00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:07,840
Speaker 6: him blatantly doing that. He actually tried to say that

856
00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:12,839
Speaker 6: he wasn't demonizing ivermectin in general. He was just demonizing

857
00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:17,719
Speaker 6: people taking the veterinarian version of ivermectin, like as if

858
00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:20,200
Speaker 6: you got it prescribed for a horse and then you

859
00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:23,600
Speaker 6: took it, which obviously was never what him or anyone

860
00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:26,080
Speaker 6: at CNN was talking about. They were talking about Joe Rogan,

861
00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:29,399
Speaker 6: who clearly got it from a doctor and prescribed him

862
00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:32,160
Speaker 6: the people version of ivermectin like.

863
00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:34,520
Speaker 2: It was just look, it was it again.

864
00:43:34,560 --> 00:43:37,000
Speaker 6: It was very similar to me to Fauci in his

865
00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:41,640
Speaker 6: testimony yesterday when he was saying that, oh, you know

866
00:43:42,040 --> 00:43:45,640
Speaker 6: what was it that we we were just saying that

867
00:43:45,880 --> 00:43:49,000
Speaker 6: the vaccine stopped you from getting it or transmitting the

868
00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:51,640
Speaker 6: virus in the first wave. We were never saying it

869
00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:53,719
Speaker 6: through the second and third wave, even though we all

870
00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:56,040
Speaker 6: remember this wasn't that long ago. I mean, it's like

871
00:43:56,239 --> 00:43:58,680
Speaker 6: we all remember you saying this the whole way through

872
00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:00,960
Speaker 6: and never backing off of that, and then as it

873
00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:03,960
Speaker 6: became clear that the vaccine didn't work, you just doubled

874
00:44:03,960 --> 00:44:08,840
Speaker 6: down and doubled down again. It's just they're obviously liars,

875
00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:11,320
Speaker 6: But I did think one of the beautiful things about

876
00:44:11,360 --> 00:44:14,040
Speaker 6: that debate, and I'm very grateful to Patch Pitt David

877
00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:14,920
Speaker 6: for setting it up.

878
00:44:15,239 --> 00:44:16,440
Speaker 2: Was that I thought that was clear.

879
00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:20,120
Speaker 6: You know, they did a poll afterward and they got

880
00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:23,960
Speaker 6: around thirty thousand people voted in it, and I took

881
00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:25,240
Speaker 6: ninety six percent.

882
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:28,000
Speaker 2: Four percent thought he won the debate.

883
00:44:28,520 --> 00:44:31,520
Speaker 6: And you as you know Jesse, four percent of people

884
00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:35,279
Speaker 6: are trouns, so he got the trunds vote, but I

885
00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:39,360
Speaker 6: took the rest. And that's a I just I thought

886
00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:41,480
Speaker 6: that was like, okay, well that's pretty one sided.

887
00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:43,200
Speaker 2: Everyone could see what's up here.

888
00:44:43,239 --> 00:44:47,759
Speaker 6: Like these guys who had so much, so much like

889
00:44:47,880 --> 00:44:51,520
Speaker 6: belief and passion as they were shaming the rest of Americans,

890
00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:54,839
Speaker 6: but when they're actually pushed, they collapsed like the house

891
00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:55,719
Speaker 6: of cards that they are.

892
00:44:57,280 --> 00:44:58,439
Speaker 2: I was wonderful to see.

893
00:44:58,719 --> 00:45:01,200
Speaker 1: And plus if all his people were they are technically

894
00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:02,280
Speaker 1: undecided voters.

895
00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:03,879
Speaker 2: Anyway, day, thank you, brother, I.

Speaker 1: people asking me a lot these days, Jesse, what do

903
00:45:33,400 --> 00:45:34,640
Speaker 1: we show our kids on TV?

904
00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:37,719
Speaker 2: I mean, you can't watch modern day television with all

905
00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:39,560
Speaker 2: the filth on there. What do you show them?

906
00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:41,680
Speaker 1: When I was a kid, you know what my mom

907
00:45:41,800 --> 00:45:42,960
Speaker 1: showed me when dad.

908
00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:43,160
Speaker 2: Was at work.

909
00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:46,160
Speaker 1: If I got to watch TV, older shows, I was

910
00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:48,920
Speaker 1: watching Andy Griffiths Show and Mary Tyler Moore.

911
00:45:49,520 --> 00:45:53,600
Speaker 2: What can you show your kids? You'll find some, mister Rogers.

912
00:45:54,960 --> 00:45:59,600
Speaker 16: Boys are boys from the beginning. If you were born a.

913
00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:00,920
Speaker 2: Boy, stay a boy.

914
00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:05,719
Speaker 16: Girls are girls right from the start. If you were

915
00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:08,640
Speaker 16: born a girl, you stay a girl and.
