I'm a Fox News legal analyst, 3 00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:13,080 Speaker 1: a lawyer by Treda, used to be a defense attorney 4 00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:16,720 Speaker 1: back in the day. You can follow me on x 5 00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:20,840 Speaker 1: formerly Twitter at Greg Jarrett two g's at the end 6 00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:25,360 Speaker 1: of Greg two r's to tease. Check out my columns 7 00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:30,400 Speaker 1: and other stories on my website, Thegreg Jarrett dot Com. 8 00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:36,519 Speaker 1: My latest column is entitled prosecute sanctuary officials who defy 9 00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:42,320 Speaker 1: Donald Trump's deportation orders. We'll get into that a bit 10 00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:45,200 Speaker 1: later on, but we are twenty eight days away from 11 00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:49,760 Speaker 1: Donald Trump being sworn in as America's new president. It 12 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:55,640 Speaker 1: will be the end of Joe Biden's misbegotten tenure. I mean, 13 00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:59,120 Speaker 1: who knew that a single person could do so much 14 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:04,360 Speaker 1: damage in four short years. What did he do well? 15 00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:09,240 Speaker 1: He tanked the economy with his profligate spending and reckless policies. 16 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:14,120 Speaker 1: Americans suffered when inflation soared to a forty year high. 17 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 1: They struggled to put food on the table, roofs over 18 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 1: their heads. He turned the nation's energy independence upside down. 19 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 1: Gas prices soared, pulling up the pumps was a financial 20 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 1: nightmare for everyone. His Afghanistan withdrawal, with deadly consequences has 21 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 1: to rank as one of the worst military humiliations in 22 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:43,760 Speaker 1: US history, and sensing his weakness, Russia invaded Ukraine, Hamas 23 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 1: attacked Israel, China ran rough shot over everybody. In the meantime, 24 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:55,960 Speaker 1: Joe rewarded Iran for its terrorism with billions of dollars. 25 00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 1: So to call Joe Biden an utter and complete disaster 26 00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:08,080 Speaker 1: does not come close to accurately describing his insanity, his idiocy, 27 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:12,400 Speaker 1: and the excuse making is of course now in overdrive. 28 00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 1: But it turns out that Joe Biden was not COMPASSMENTUS. 29 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 1: That's a Latin term that means in essence, Joe Biden's 30 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 1: mind was mush He was mentally infirmed dementia. Well, maybe 31 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 1: that requires a medical diagnosis. Senility in the general sense, 32 00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 1: Without a doubt, Joe Biden was senile still is. The 33 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 1: Wall Street Journal's recent devastating exposee on Biden's diminished capacity, 34 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 1: dating back all the way to his first day in office, 35 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:56,239 Speaker 1: is a revealing and troubling window into an absentee president. 36 00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:03,360 Speaker 1: His staff scrupulously sealed Joe's condition. They built a bubble 37 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 1: around him so that very few people would actually see 38 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:16,360 Speaker 1: his metal decline. Public appearances were scant, but always carefully scripted, 39 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 1: complete with childlike instructions of where to enter and exit 40 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:25,239 Speaker 1: the stage. When he was forced to meet with donors, 41 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:30,520 Speaker 1: they were given pre approved questions. They were cautioned, don't deviate, 42 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: don't ask him anything other than what's written. His own 43 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 1: Cabinet members rarely saw him. They finally gave up. Meetings 44 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 1: were canceled. If Joe was having a bad day, which 45 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 1: happened a lot, he had these keepers or miners who 46 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:52,560 Speaker 1: went everywhere with him. They took care of him like 47 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 1: a nursing home patient. Important decisions were being made, but 48 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 1: by whom nobody really knows, And this went on for 49 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 1: four years. Where was the nuclear football? Was it in 50 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 1: the hands of this mentally incompetent commander in chief? Nobody 51 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 1: really knows. Yet there are many people to blame for this, 52 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:21,160 Speaker 1: not just the White House. Sickophants, Democrats and their media 53 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:27,240 Speaker 1: lapdogs hit Joe Biden's senility for years. As the editorial 54 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 1: board of The New York Post pointed out read their column, 55 00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 1: they knew of Joe's cognitive decline. But instead of exposing 56 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:40,040 Speaker 1: the truth, what do they do? They attacked anyone who 57 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 1: dared to raise the obvious alarm. You know, history books 58 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 1: will be written about our missing president permanently out to 59 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 1: lunch or asleep at the switch. People involved, you see, 60 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 1: will eventually talk, they have to, and the stories they 61 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: will tell we'll chill you to the bone. Guaranteed one 62 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 1: hundred percent. This will go down as the biggest scandal 63 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:13,479 Speaker 1: and cover up in American history. Many of us warned 64 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 1: about Joe's condition when he ran for president in twenty twenty. 65 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 1: It was obvious to anybody paying attention. I wrote an 66 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:27,279 Speaker 1: endless stream of columns about Biden's incapacity. He wasn't in charge. 67 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 1: He wasn't in command. It was dangerous to vote for 68 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 1: Joe Biden. National security was at risk, not to mention 69 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:44,280 Speaker 1: all of his destructive progressive policies, But voters were snookered, 70 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 1: and they put a mindless man in the Oval office, 71 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 1: and the inevitable calamities followed, a long national nightmare. Among 72 00:05:55,839 --> 00:06:01,360 Speaker 1: his biggest fiasco was opening the border. Roughly ten million 73 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:07,720 Speaker 1: illegals flooded into our nation. The damage that that one 74 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:14,719 Speaker 1: policy decision. Did that'll last for a generation? Nobody was 75 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 1: being vetted. Everybody came in. As a result, criminals flowed 76 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:24,480 Speaker 1: across the border and began a hideous assault on innocent citizens. 77 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:30,040 Speaker 1: According to ICE, this is their latest stat More than 78 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 1: six hundred and sixty two thousand illegals convicted or charged 79 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:41,600 Speaker 1: with crimes are here in the United States. We're talking 80 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:48,920 Speaker 1: about homicides, rapes, assaultant batteries, burglaries, carthess, drug offenses. And 81 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 1: with those criminals came fentanyl, a deadly plague that claimed 82 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:59,480 Speaker 1: the lives of close to one hundred thousand young people 83 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:03,839 Speaker 1: each and every year. Joe Biden didn't care. He didn't 84 00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:07,279 Speaker 1: care when Lincoln Riley was murdered, or Rachel Marin or 85 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 1: twelve year old Joscelyn Hungary. And we became numb to 86 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 1: the volume of victims. There have been so many. And 87 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:20,679 Speaker 1: the latest happened just yesterday here in New York City. 88 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 1: An illegal set a sleeping woman on fire inside a 89 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 1: New York City subway car, and he sat there and 90 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:37,559 Speaker 1: he watched. Again, Joe Biden doesn't care. Maybe he doesn't 91 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 1: even know, but he should. I'll tell you who does know. 92 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 1: The governor of New York Kathy Hockel the day before 93 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 1: that heinous murder happened on the subway car. She said this, 94 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 1: I'm on a subway chain. Hen ont the clean center 95 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 1: a lot. He's not a boy last minute. 96 00:07:56,840 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 2: By a holiday shopping to do adorable to brand daughters shot. 97 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 1: I could take the subway room. 98 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 3: We need to do. 99 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 1: All New Yorkers to feel safe. 100 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 2: Which is why so many more national disfy, more people 101 00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 2: to make sure that you're right. 102 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 1: It's a safe Oh, it's as safe as it can be, 103 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 1: you know, and you could be set ablaze and die. 104 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 1: But is there anybody more clueless and moronic than Kathy Hochel, 105 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 1: the governor of New York. These crimes happened because Joe 106 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 1: Biden deliberately invited criminals into our country. He aided and 107 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 1: embedded the murders. He was an accessory. Joe Biden has 108 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:47,560 Speaker 1: blood on his hands. Now that may sound harsh, but 109 00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 1: you know what, It's true. And yet so many in 110 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 1: the media and Democrats circles still celebrate Joe Biden as 111 00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:00,840 Speaker 1: one of the old time best day yeas ago, I 112 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 1: couldn't stop laughing. I read the column by Donna Brazil 113 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:09,559 Speaker 1: in the Hill. She called Joe one of our greatest presidents, 114 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 1: comparing him to FDR and his new deal lbj's great society. 115 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:21,680 Speaker 1: Nobody better than Joe. Speaking of Joe, who can forget 116 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 1: Joe Scarborough? Remember when he said Biden is far beyond coaching. 117 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 1: In fact, Biden's better than he's ever been intellectually and analytically. 118 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 1: He is the best Biden ever. That's Joe Scarborough on MSNBC. 119 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 1: My favorite is liberal reporter Jonathan Alter, who said, and 120 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 1: I'm quoting here, Joe Biden will be remembered as a 121 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:59,480 Speaker 1: great president, mentioned in the same sentence as George Washington. Jonathan, 122 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 1: I will agree with this in the following way. Joe 123 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 1: Biden will be mentioned in the same sentence with George Washington. 124 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:16,439 Speaker 1: When you compare the best with the absolute worst. 125 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 4: The political coverage fit looks some of the political players 126 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 4: and some of the let me ask quetorical questions. 127 00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 1: Not so Linda's laughing. You know, that's that's an oldie, 128 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,840 Speaker 1: but a goodie, isn't it. It is my favorite. It 129 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:53,440 Speaker 1: is my favorite Joe Biden clip. 130 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 2: Oh well, it's actually in the system labeled Linda's fave 131 00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 2: Joe Biden piano. 132 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:01,320 Speaker 1: That's what it's called. I love it so much. The 133 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 1: music is outstanding in but that's not altered. 134 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 2: The only thing that's added is the music, right right, That's. 135 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 1: A music sets the tone for Joe Biden, who struggles 136 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:18,200 Speaker 1: to put a subject with a predicate. And you know, 137 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 1: his insidious presidency thankfully ends in less than a month, 138 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:27,560 Speaker 1: and for the sake of America, let's hope he doesn't 139 00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 1: do any more damage in the remaining days, because beginning 140 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 1: on January twentieth, President Trump will take aggressive action to 141 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 1: fix what Biden broke. So you can expect a flurry 142 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 1: of executive orders and directives that will close the border, 143 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 1: resume border wall construction, set the path for deporting the 144 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: record number of illegal immigrants who are here in the 145 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 1: United States. How many, According to ICE, there are over 146 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 1: seven million who have final orders of removal or are 147 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:15,560 Speaker 1: going through removal proceedings but are not yet in ICE custody. 148 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 1: Donald Trump will declare it a national emergency because it 149 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:29,640 Speaker 1: is on energy. Trump will order sweeping changes to revitalize 150 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 1: oil and gas production, roll back Joe Biden's abusive climate 151 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:40,559 Speaker 1: regulations that have suffocated the industry and damaged our economy, 152 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:46,720 Speaker 1: and Trump will revoke Biden's equity orders based on sexual 153 00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:53,439 Speaker 1: orientation and gender identity. Look Out, folks, the woke crowd 154 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:57,600 Speaker 1: is about to get canceled. We're gonna talk a bit 155 00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:01,800 Speaker 1: more about that in just a moment. Also, my prosecute 156 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 1: sanctuary officials who defy Trump's deportation orders? Can they be arrested, charged, 157 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:14,960 Speaker 1: prosecuted and tossed into the whoscal I'll have the answer 158 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:22,360 Speaker 1: when we come back.

I wrote a column that said that these 163 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 1: sanctuary officials who intend to defy actively defy Trump's forthcoming 164 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 1: deportation orders should be prosecuted. They belong in jail. Here 165 00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:54,079 Speaker 1: is Trump's incoming borders or Tom Homan. 166 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 5: I want you to be clear about who has jurisdiction, 167 00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:00,120 Speaker 5: the federal government or state and local governments. And if 168 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:02,880 Speaker 5: you're a sanctuary state or city, are you breaking the law? 169 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:04,080 Speaker 6: Absolutely? 170 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 2: Breaking law? 171 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 4: Oh? 172 00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 6: Yes? Do Look at Arizona versus USC's breaking law. 173 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:10,080 Speaker 5: But look me in the Denver mayor, we agree on 174 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 5: one thing. 175 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:12,360 Speaker 6: He's willing to go to jail. 176 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:13,760 Speaker 2: I'm willing to put him in. 177 00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 6: Jail, all right. 178 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:22,600 Speaker 1: So what's he talking about here? Prosecution and jail for 179 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:28,720 Speaker 1: city and county and state officials who are providing sanctuary 180 00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 1: is exactly what Congress had in mind when it long 181 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 1: ago passed a criminal law to combat those who aid 182 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 1: and abt illegal immigration. Here it is eight Usc. Thirteen 183 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 1: twenty four. Any person knowing that an alien has come 184 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 1: to the US in violation of law, conceals, harbors, or 185 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 1: shields from detection any such alien in any place shall 186 00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 1: be imprisoned not more than five years. And by the way, 187 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 1: that's five years for each illegal alien. But there's more. 188 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 1: It's a felony to quote interrupt, hinder, or impede federal 189 00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:19,720 Speaker 1: officials in the discharge of their duties. That's eight Usc. 190 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:23,960 Speaker 1: Three seventy two. It's also obstruction of justice under a 191 00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 1: variety of statutes in the US criminal codes. So if 192 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:35,960 Speaker 1: these knucklehead officials think they can interfere with Trump's deportation order, 193 00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 1: They've got some news coming to them.

Welcome back to the 215 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:12,400 Speaker 1: Sean Hannity Show. And Greg Jarrett filling in for Sean Hannity. 216 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:16,439 Speaker 1: I'm a Fox News legal analyst, so this story of 217 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 1: today really caught my eye and I think everybody's talking 218 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:26,520 Speaker 1: about it. Joe Biden has commuted the sentences of nearly 219 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 1: all of the inmates on federal death row, so we're 220 00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:35,560 Speaker 1: talking about thirty seven of the total forty inmates on 221 00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:40,960 Speaker 1: death row. The three inmates not included in the commutation 222 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 1: are people who committed mass murderers. Mass murders including the 223 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 1: Boston marathon bomber and two others who attacked a synagogue 224 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:57,720 Speaker 1: and black parishioners at a Charleston church. Biden previously declared 225 00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 1: a moratorium you should know on federal executions as soon 226 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,920 Speaker 1: as he took office in twenty twenty one, so he 227 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:10,959 Speaker 1: knew that his successor, Donald Trump would change that, so 228 00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 1: he took action on his own. And Joe Biden's rationale 229 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:20,040 Speaker 1: is as follows. He supports the death penalty only for 230 00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:27,160 Speaker 1: terrorism and hate motivated mass murder so in other words, 231 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:34,480 Speaker 1: child killers are somehow less reprehensible than other killers, and 232 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:38,399 Speaker 1: they deserve to live. Let me give you some examples 233 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,200 Speaker 1: among the people who are now off death row thanks 234 00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:47,480 Speaker 1: to Joe Biden, Thomas Sanders, who kidnapped and shot a 235 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:51,560 Speaker 1: twelve year old girl and then cut her throat because 236 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 1: she was a witness to Sanders' execution of her mother 237 00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:04,159 Speaker 1: four days earlier. Then there's Jorge A Villatorez. He sexually 238 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 1: assaulted and stabbed to death two girls. Then there's Daniel 239 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 1: Troya who killed an entire family, including two children. How 240 00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:23,639 Speaker 1: about Caboni Savage who killed four children and ordered the 241 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:29,240 Speaker 1: killing of many others. Now that strikes me as a 242 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:34,239 Speaker 1: mass murderer, But in Joe Biden's book, that's okay. And 243 00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 1: I want to play for you what the NAACP president 244 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:46,520 Speaker 1: said about Joe Biden's death row commutations. They are protected 245 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 1: and productive citizens. Take a listen. 246 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:53,240 Speaker 3: We are encouraging a president to continue on this moral 247 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:56,439 Speaker 3: path to ensure that the disparities that we see in 248 00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:59,119 Speaker 3: the system that has been proven is addressed to the 249 00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:02,000 Speaker 3: clemency process, as there are individuals that should be pardoned 250 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:05,760 Speaker 3: their productive citizens and This is the type of legacy 251 00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:09,919 Speaker 3: that we will want to see any president go out on, 252 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:14,200 Speaker 3: a legacy of helping people recognize the disparities and address 253 00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:15,520 Speaker 3: it moral inequities. 254 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:21,120 Speaker 1: They are productive citizens. Joining us now to talk about 255 00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 1: is John Solomon, Editor in chief of Just the News, 256 00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 1: host of Just the News, Not Noise. John, Thanks for 257 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:34,440 Speaker 1: being with us today. Merry Christmas, Happy holidays. You knew 258 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 1: this was coming, and I know that because I read 259 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:42,040 Speaker 1: your column before Joe Biden commuted all of these sentences 260 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:45,400 Speaker 1: of people on death row. You wrote a column that said, 261 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:51,360 Speaker 1: Joe Biden is considering commuting sentences of those on death row, 262 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 1: and you totally nailed it. You said he was getting 263 00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 1: pressure from civil rights groups, religious organizations, and Merrick Garland, 264 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 1: his Attorney general, had recommended that Biden commute those sentences. Job, 265 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:10,920 Speaker 1: well done, Tell us a. 266 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 5: Bit more well, listen. 267 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 6: I think it's a fitting end to the Biden presidency 268 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:20,399 Speaker 6: that the entire four years have been an extraordinarily unfriendly 269 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:25,119 Speaker 6: and actually quite unsafe time for children in America and 270 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,639 Speaker 6: all across the world. Let's start with Afghanistan. The women 271 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:29,359 Speaker 6: and girls who used to go to school can't go 272 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:32,120 Speaker 6: anywhere because the Taliban took over because of the way 273 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 6: Joe Biden exited the country. You go to title nine 274 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:38,399 Speaker 6: in the sports and you see women being harmed in 275 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 6: sports games and losing the awards they would normally win 276 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:44,360 Speaker 6: because men were allowed into sports. You take a look 277 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 6: at the migrant children that were forced to come here 278 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:50,120 Speaker 6: under the insane system that developed under Joe Biden. At 279 00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:53,960 Speaker 6: the behest of cartels where they're sexually trafficked, they're being 280 00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,560 Speaker 6: used as drug mules, and then they get to the country. 281 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 6: The Biden administration took custody to these children and they 282 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:02,480 Speaker 6: lost thirty two thousand of them at least maybe many more. 283 00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:07,080 Speaker 6: This has been an unfriendly, unsafe administration for children across 284 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:09,639 Speaker 6: the world and in our own country. And I think today, 285 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 6: in commuting the sentences of child killers and child rapists, 286 00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 6: he once again affirmed that his woke ideology is more 287 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 6: important than the safety of children. His wokey ideology is 288 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:24,159 Speaker 6: more important than the judgment of jurors and juries and 289 00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:27,480 Speaker 6: judges who impose these sentences. Joe BIDENO he says, I 290 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:30,880 Speaker 6: trust that justice system until he doesn't. Here he took 291 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 6: the verdicts of juries and judges and threw them out 292 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:38,199 Speaker 6: the window in a complete, you know, middle finger to 293 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,879 Speaker 6: the court system. And there are Democrats that are very 294 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 6: upset about this Congress, and Mike Quigley in Illinois, I think, 295 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:45,480 Speaker 6: said something that a lot of Americans are the greet 296 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 6: and army. Quigley's pretty liberal, but he said, listen, at 297 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 6: some point, you've got to let these courts make up 298 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,399 Speaker 6: their own mind and the jurors closer to the case, 299 00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 6: and let them their decisions stand and be autonomous and 300 00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,879 Speaker 6: not keep interfering. That's a Democrat saying that about the 301 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 6: departing Joe Biden. 302 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 1: Then you have other Democrats like Senator Chris Coons, far 303 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:13,160 Speaker 1: left liberal, Biden's Delaware Palell who cheered the commutations by Biden, 304 00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:18,720 Speaker 1: and he cited the unfairness in the justice system. I'll 305 00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:21,359 Speaker 1: quote him here. There are some real questions about the 306 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 1: fairness in the process of the death penalty in the US. 307 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:32,000 Speaker 1: What unfairness in these cases? In every single one of them, 308 00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:36,280 Speaker 1: there was overwhelming evidence of guilt. There was no doubt 309 00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:43,520 Speaker 1: about guilt. So isn't Coons and others conjuring up some 310 00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 1: imaginary unfairness where none exists? 311 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:51,760 Speaker 6: Hey, listen to the Sheriff Pearson down in Saint Lucie County, Florida, 312 00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:56,439 Speaker 6: who was the department investigated that killing of that family. 313 00:23:56,480 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 6: A mom, a dad, and two young children executed these 314 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:03,680 Speaker 6: two thugs. He knows what the case was, he knows 315 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:06,639 Speaker 6: how carefully the court system and the jurors took it. 316 00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:09,160 Speaker 6: And now Joe Biden thinks he's smarter than the rest 317 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:11,920 Speaker 6: of them. And he asked a very profound question, where 318 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,399 Speaker 6: is the justice for the Escabido family, that's the family 319 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 6: that was executed by those two thugs. The answer is 320 00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 6: there's not going to be that. The jury and the 321 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:24,399 Speaker 6: judges verdict were erased by Joe Biden for some ideological reason. 322 00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:29,360 Speaker 6: If you're in that community today, you're feeling pretty unsatisfied 323 00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:30,360 Speaker 6: by what Joe Biden did. 324 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:32,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think so. You know, with a wave of 325 00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:36,600 Speaker 1: a pen, Biden is sending a very clear message to 326 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:42,480 Speaker 1: the greathing families of all of those murder victims. And 327 00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 1: the message is I don't care about you. That's right, 328 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:50,400 Speaker 1: you know, forget compassion for them. Joe Biden has only 329 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:55,400 Speaker 1: compassion for heinous murderers. And you know, in a statement, 330 00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 1: Biden said, we must stop the use of the death penalty. 331 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:04,040 Speaker 1: But Congress doesn't want to do that, so Biden's doing it. 332 00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 1: In said, he is usurping their power. I mean, they're 333 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:13,879 Speaker 1: the ones who passed the federal law which makes certain 334 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:17,879 Speaker 1: most heinous crimes eligible for the death penalty. So, as 335 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:22,560 Speaker 1: Andy McCarthy, former federal prosecutor, Box contributor said, this is 336 00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:28,960 Speaker 1: an abuse of the federal power. Biden is obliterating decisions 337 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:33,119 Speaker 1: made by Congress on the death penalty, not to mention, 338 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:37,840 Speaker 1: as you said, John, the decisions of federal juries. 339 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:43,080 Speaker 6: Yeah. Yeah, Listen, he told us you wouldn't interfare in 340 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:46,119 Speaker 6: his sense, he did. He told us he believed in 341 00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 6: the judicial system. He did. He doesn't trust the jurors 342 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 6: and judges who imposed these verdicts and these sentences. And 343 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:56,080 Speaker 6: by again, it's a fitting end to a president who's 344 00:25:56,119 --> 00:26:01,560 Speaker 6: been I think, unfriendly to the system, the system of justice, 345 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:06,439 Speaker 6: unfriendly to the notion of honesty, and also unfriendly and 346 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:09,239 Speaker 6: unsafe for so many children across the world, whether it's 347 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 6: the young girls now suffering under the rule of the 348 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:16,240 Speaker 6: Taliban in Afghanistan or the migrant children who are lost 349 00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 6: in our country after being trafficked here by cartels. Or 350 00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:22,639 Speaker 6: the victims of these heinous crimes today, which are some 351 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:25,119 Speaker 6: of the most heinous crimes I can possibly think of. 352 00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 6: I don't know how history will look back at Joe Biden, 353 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:30,560 Speaker 6: but I assure you it will not be with a 354 00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 6: bright and happy life. 355 00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:35,640 Speaker 1: You know, Joe Biden did it because, as I mentioned, 356 00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:39,920 Speaker 1: he knows his successor will continue to follow the law 357 00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:44,359 Speaker 1: and carry out the sentences of these thirty seven people 358 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:48,480 Speaker 1: on death row. It's just one example, isn't it, John, 359 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:52,440 Speaker 1: of how Joe Biden is trying to trump proof his 360 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 1: own legacy, you know, more student loan forgiveness, even though 361 00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:59,200 Speaker 1: the Supreme Court has said he can't do it. Racing 362 00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 1: to hand out party favors, tens of billions in taxpayer 363 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:07,240 Speaker 1: money for his pet projects, and special interest groups involving 364 00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:11,159 Speaker 1: the Clean New Deal selling off border wall material so 365 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:14,600 Speaker 1: Trump can't use them to continue building a Southern wall, 366 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:20,120 Speaker 1: rushing liberal federal judges through Confirmation, and jamming down our 367 00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 1: throats a whole host of new regulations that suppress the marketplace. 368 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:30,120 Speaker 1: Either Biden refuses to accept the results of the election 369 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:34,400 Speaker 1: in which Democrats lost control of everything, or he's doing 370 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:38,400 Speaker 1: everything he can to hobble the incoming president while ignoring 371 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:40,679 Speaker 1: the will of the people, which is it. 372 00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:43,359 Speaker 6: Yeah, and I'm going to throw one other one and 373 00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:45,720 Speaker 6: there he to stabilize the world in these final few 374 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:49,159 Speaker 6: weeks since the voter spoke, all these long range weapons 375 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,360 Speaker 6: that he's given to Ukraine so that he could provocate 376 00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:54,240 Speaker 6: Russia instead of bringing the two sides coast together for 377 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,720 Speaker 6: a peace deal like President Trump has been calling for him. 378 00:27:57,520 --> 00:28:00,880 Speaker 6: Even the world has been made more on because Joe 379 00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:03,639 Speaker 6: Biden doesn't want to see Donald Trump succeed. I think 380 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:05,800 Speaker 6: that's what most people see and look. And by the way, 381 00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:08,640 Speaker 6: there are many Democrats who are telling me that privately 382 00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:10,880 Speaker 6: that they're just shocked at what Joe Biden is doing. 383 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:13,160 Speaker 6: Is he goes out the door, whether it's the pardon 384 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:16,720 Speaker 6: of his son, these pardons today, even his own party 385 00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:18,960 Speaker 6: has a little bit of shame about how this president 386 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:22,760 Speaker 6: is exiting from what has been ill rather failed presidency overall. 387 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:26,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, he will go down in history as 388 00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:32,960 Speaker 1: the worst American president ever, and not just because he 389 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:38,600 Speaker 1: was mentally incompetent throughout, but his far left, radical Marxist 390 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:43,960 Speaker 1: progressive policies ruined the United States. And there's a lot 391 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:47,720 Speaker 1: that now needs fixing. You were not only ahead of 392 00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 1: the curve on that particular story, but also on the 393 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 1: Matt Gates story and the House Ethics draft report.

And John, you had the 425 00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:51,000 Speaker 1: story about Matt Gates and this bombshell finding in the 426 00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:56,080 Speaker 1: House Ethics Committee that has now been released in which 427 00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:59,520 Speaker 1: he is alleged to have used illicit drugs paying for 428 00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:04,200 Speaker 1: sex with multiple women, including a seventeen year old. You 429 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:08,320 Speaker 1: had this story actually last night before it came out today, 430 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:11,480 Speaker 1: and you posted it last night, and you've actually designed 431 00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:14,280 Speaker 1: to stand it, had your hands on the draft report 432 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:18,440 Speaker 1: for some time now. What can you tell us. 433 00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 6: Well, yeah, I had generally as inkling of what was 434 00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:23,080 Speaker 6: in it until last night when I actually got the 435 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 6: final draft report and published about eleven o'clock last night. Listen, 436 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:30,760 Speaker 6: there are serious allegations in here. The report says that 437 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:33,680 Speaker 6: there is a strong body of evidence that Matt Kate's 438 00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:38,120 Speaker 6: paid for sex and a commercial transaction and violation of 439 00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:44,400 Speaker 6: Florida's prostitution laws. That he committed statutory rate by having 440 00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:46,520 Speaker 6: sex with a seventeen year old girl who the first 441 00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:49,520 Speaker 6: time he did he gave four hundred dollars this compensation 442 00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:53,920 Speaker 6: to her. That he accepted an inappropriate gift of travel 443 00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 6: on the back from one of the junkets with these 444 00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:59,000 Speaker 6: women he hung out with. And then he misused his 445 00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:03,080 Speaker 6: office to help one of these women that he would 446 00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:09,360 Speaker 6: occasionally socialize with in ssex with to get a expedited 447 00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:12,520 Speaker 6: passport using the power of his congressional office and falsely 448 00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:15,520 Speaker 6: telling the government that this woman was a constituent when 449 00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 6: she was not. And then of course he's also accused 450 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 6: of obstructing the congressional investigation. These are all pretty hard 451 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:25,080 Speaker 6: hitting allegations. They've been out there for some time because 452 00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:27,520 Speaker 6: there are so many leaks in this investigation. Unlike almost 453 00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:29,720 Speaker 6: any House Ethics Commission, I've ever seen. Is the most 454 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:34,560 Speaker 6: leak heavy investigation, so very few factual surprises. But I 455 00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:37,520 Speaker 6: think the breath of the findings pretty damaging to Matt 456 00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:40,120 Speaker 6: Gate's future. Now, he's a fighter, He's a guy that 457 00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:42,360 Speaker 6: knows how to push back, and he's already doing so. 458 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:44,960 Speaker 6: I think providing some new evidence today that does call 459 00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:47,440 Speaker 6: into question some of the conclusions of the report. So 460 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:49,880 Speaker 6: it's going to play out for some time. But an 461 00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:52,760 Speaker 6: unpleasant day. And I think it also President Trump's decision 462 00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:56,680 Speaker 6: to have Matt Gate step aside as his Attorney general nomine, 463 00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 6: he probably looks a lot smarter after people see this 464 00:32:58,880 --> 00:32:59,400 Speaker 6: report today. 465 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:03,320 Speaker 1: Thirty seconds left, But the DOJ previously chose not to 466 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,400 Speaker 1: criminally charge Gates. Might that change? 467 00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 6: No, I don't think so. But there are still possibility 468 00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:11,240 Speaker 6: of charges in the state of Florida based on the 469 00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:12,560 Speaker 6: evidence that was proper today. 470 00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:17,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, incredible story. John Solomon had it before anybody else. 471 00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:21,000 Speaker 1: And John, thanks for taking the time to talk to us, 472 00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:24,720 Speaker 1: not only about the Gates story, but the other big 473 00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:27,479 Speaker 1: story of the day, Joe Biden commuting the sentences of 474 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:31,320 Speaker 1: nearly all of the inmates on Federal death Row.
