Sean is our number if you 0:01:21.360 --> 0:01:25.040 want to be a part of the program. There is 0:01:25.120 --> 0:01:30.720 a lot of uncertainty regarding Assad's removal, if you will, 0:01:31.040 --> 0:01:34.800 and the cove that has taking place uh In as 0:01:34.880 --> 0:01:38.280 it relates to Syria. But but there's certain undeniable truths 0:01:38.360 --> 0:01:41.600 in all of this. The fact that Vladimir Putin was 0:01:41.640 --> 0:01:45.760 so engaged in his war with Ukraine, and by the way, 0:01:46.160 --> 0:01:48.800 just not a shocker to anybody. But you know, Joe 0:01:48.880 --> 0:01:51.560 Biden now is sending you know, another billion dollars in 0:01:51.600 --> 0:01:53.960 additional weapons on his way out the door, just like 0:01:54.440 --> 0:01:57.920 you know, six hundred billion dollars in student loan forgiveness. 0:01:58.160 --> 0:02:02.560 This guy just you know, spending money like crazy. Is 0:02:02.600 --> 0:02:03.440 it good to see? 0:02:03.760 --> 0:02:04.000 Yes? 0:02:05.040 --> 0:02:06.720 Am I glad it happened. Yes? 0:02:07.280 --> 0:02:10.760 Does it week in Vladimir Putin's influence in the region, 0:02:11.040 --> 0:02:14.480 It absolutely does? Does it week in the Iranian Mullahs? 0:02:14.919 --> 0:02:19.200 It absolutely does. Does it raise the prospects for peace 0:02:19.360 --> 0:02:22.200 in the Middle East and an alliance again to be 0:02:22.320 --> 0:02:25.960 re established with the United States and Israel and Jordan 0:02:26.680 --> 0:02:30.079 and Egypt and the Saudis and the Emirates that existed 0:02:30.120 --> 0:02:32.040 when Donald Trump was president the first time? 0:02:32.240 --> 0:02:32.639 It does. 0:02:34.080 --> 0:02:39.080 Vladimir Putin taking in Assad is interesting. It was kind 0:02:39.120 --> 0:02:42.440 of entertaining over the weekend to watch, you know a 0:02:42.520 --> 0:02:47.440 lot of the rebels that had basically ousted this murdering 0:02:47.600 --> 0:02:52.799 dictator as they were rummaging through his house and looting 0:02:52.880 --> 0:02:57.720 the place like crazy. But anyway, so the people are celebrating, 0:02:58.120 --> 0:03:03.480 they're tearing down posters of Ad and the and but 0:03:03.720 --> 0:03:07.239 we don't know yet how this is going to play out. 0:03:07.480 --> 0:03:08.959 We don't know what role. 0:03:09.520 --> 0:03:13.359 You know, Isis had been, for example, in Czech and 0:03:13.480 --> 0:03:17.560 a lot of ISIS prisoners had been held by the Kurds. 0:03:18.240 --> 0:03:20.760 In Syria and Iraq and elsewhere. 0:03:21.400 --> 0:03:25.359 And we don't want radical Islamis taking over Syria, and 0:03:25.880 --> 0:03:28.239 we have to watch for who's going to ultimately take 0:03:28.320 --> 0:03:32.080 over here. You know, one thing the Israelis did almost 0:03:32.160 --> 0:03:37.000 immediately was they took out their chemical weapons site within Syria, 0:03:37.160 --> 0:03:40.680 not knowing who ultimately will be in charge when things 0:03:40.720 --> 0:03:44.360 settled down. You might remember Obama made this comment in 0:03:44.400 --> 0:03:47.440 twenty twelve that the use of chemical weapons by the 0:03:47.480 --> 0:03:50.320 ASAD regime would be a red line for US, and meanwhile, 0:03:50.560 --> 0:03:51.560 they'd already used them. 0:03:53.040 --> 0:03:57.200 We have been very clear to the Asad regime but 0:03:57.360 --> 0:04:03.480 also to other players on the ground that a red 0:04:03.560 --> 0:04:07.640 line for US is we start seeing a whole bunch 0:04:07.640 --> 0:04:11.200 of chemical weapons moving around or being utilized. That would 0:04:11.280 --> 0:04:13.480 change my calculus, That would change my equation. 0:04:13.600 --> 0:04:16.240 It's somehow under. 0:04:17.920 --> 0:04:23.600 In a situation this volatile. I wouldn't say that I 0:04:23.680 --> 0:04:26.760 am absolutely confident. What I'm saying is we're monitoring that 0:04:26.880 --> 0:04:30.520 situation very carefully. We have put together a range of 0:04:30.600 --> 0:04:36.280 contingency plans. We have communicated in no uncertain terms with 0:04:36.600 --> 0:04:39.520 every player in the region that that's a red line 0:04:39.560 --> 0:04:42.960 for us, and that there would be enormous consequences if 0:04:43.000 --> 0:04:46.680 we start seeing movement on the chemical weapons front or 0:04:46.760 --> 0:04:50.920 the use of chemical weapons, that would that would change 0:04:50.960 --> 0:04:54.240 my calculations significantly. 0:04:54.640 --> 0:04:57.680 So that a chemical weapons planned, and thankfully the Israelis 0:04:57.720 --> 0:05:00.280 took that out. I don't think any American in their 0:05:00.360 --> 0:05:05.760 right mind wants any part of Syria's internal conflict here, 0:05:07.160 --> 0:05:10.680 but we do have interest that we cannot afford to 0:05:10.839 --> 0:05:16.960 ignore the fate of American hostages in Assad's prisons like 0:05:17.160 --> 0:05:21.080 Austin Tye, as well as the remains of those who 0:05:21.640 --> 0:05:24.440 died in captivity. That would be a priority for I'm 0:05:24.480 --> 0:05:28.280 sure we'll become a priority for President Trump, and you know, 0:05:28.440 --> 0:05:31.000 taking out any possibility that they could have weapons of 0:05:31.040 --> 0:05:35.960 mass destruction, this was one of the better well under 0:05:36.040 --> 0:05:39.760 reported stories the Israelis went in years ago, and they 0:05:39.800 --> 0:05:43.919 were able to fly below the radar of the Syrian 0:05:44.080 --> 0:05:46.800 air defenses and they took out their nuclear sites and 0:05:46.880 --> 0:05:49.279 nobody knew it, just like they had done in Iraq, 0:05:49.360 --> 0:05:53.040 and it was like the most underreported military coup success 0:05:53.160 --> 0:05:55.720 of all time. But you know, I'm sure there's going 0:05:55.800 --> 0:05:59.520 to be people here in America. You know, the US 0:05:59.640 --> 0:06:01.680 military terry has worked for more than a decade with 0:06:01.800 --> 0:06:06.560 local partners to dismantle the ISIS Caliphate and prevent Isis 0:06:06.600 --> 0:06:10.360 from coming back. But we do need to be realistic 0:06:10.400 --> 0:06:14.920 about who these rebels are because these basically was Islamic 0:06:15.480 --> 0:06:19.599 rebel forces in Syria that marched into Damascus and stormed 0:06:19.640 --> 0:06:23.520 the Palace of Asad on Sunday, and you know that's 0:06:23.560 --> 0:06:27.680 where they were looting the place. So it is it's 0:06:27.760 --> 0:06:32.080 a little tenuous, to say the least. Anyway, Here for analysis, 0:06:32.120 --> 0:06:34.800 we have Brigitte Gabriel. She is the founder and chairman 0:06:34.839 --> 0:06:37.559 of Act for America. Gordon Chang, author of The Coming 0:06:37.600 --> 0:06:41.440 Collapse of China and the Great US China Tech War. 0:06:41.600 --> 0:06:43.719 Welcome both of you. Brigitte, We'll start with you. Let's 0:06:43.760 --> 0:06:48.280 get your take on this. While I'm happy he's gone frankly, 0:06:48.360 --> 0:06:53.400 Putin can have him, and he's a murdering terrorist sympathizer. 0:06:54.480 --> 0:06:57.400 We did have ISIS under control. I wouldn't want to 0:06:57.400 --> 0:07:00.760 see the re emergence of ISIS, although with Donald Trump 0:07:00.839 --> 0:07:03.480 in office, I would imagine that would be handled rather quickly. 0:07:04.680 --> 0:07:06.960 Well, thank you, Sean. I'm glad to be back with you, 0:07:07.160 --> 0:07:10.400 and thank you for bringing such an important story and 0:07:10.520 --> 0:07:13.360 the link to ISIS with what happened in Syria. And 0:07:13.480 --> 0:07:16.240 thank god we have President Trump coming into office. And 0:07:16.400 --> 0:07:20.280 here is why. Here's who this group, the rebels that 0:07:20.520 --> 0:07:25.200 basically took over the country. Julani Gilani, the head of 0:07:25.320 --> 0:07:29.440 the Hayata Riri Cham. He is an al Qaeda terrorist. 0:07:29.600 --> 0:07:32.720 He took over al Qaida in Iraq from Abu Mosab 0:07:32.800 --> 0:07:36.520 al Zarkawi, who established Al Qaira in Iraq. In two 0:07:36.640 --> 0:07:39.680 thousand and six. He was arrested by US troops in 0:07:39.840 --> 0:07:42.880 Iraq and thrown in jail. That's where he met the 0:07:43.080 --> 0:07:48.480 head and founder of ISIS, Abu Becker Albardadi. In twenty eleven. 0:07:48.760 --> 0:07:53.680 Bardadi sent Julani to Syria to start Jabat Nutra in 0:07:53.840 --> 0:07:57.920 twenty twelve. It became such a great organization, a Formidable Front. 0:07:58.480 --> 0:08:02.800 In twenty thirteen, Baghdadi cut ties with al Qaira and 0:08:03.000 --> 0:08:06.320 went to Syria to establish the Islamic State of Iraq 0:08:06.520 --> 0:08:11.200 and al Sham which means the Levant, which became known 0:08:11.240 --> 0:08:15.720 as Isis. ISIS wanted to absorb Julani and Nutra Front, 0:08:15.880 --> 0:08:19.920 but he resisted, declaring his allegiance to al Kaira. He 0:08:20.040 --> 0:08:22.520 did not want a global caliphate, He just wanted an 0:08:22.640 --> 0:08:26.360 Islamic state within Syria. Al Kaira didn't do much to 0:08:26.480 --> 0:08:29.440 help him, so in twenty sixteen he brand stuff on 0:08:29.560 --> 0:08:34.640 his own. His organization became Hayatakir Sham, which in Arabic 0:08:34.720 --> 0:08:37.840 it means the Life of the Liberation of al Sham. 0:08:38.480 --> 0:08:41.800 And he had one goal defeat Asad and toppled the 0:08:41.880 --> 0:08:46.520 Syrian regime. So he established within Syria a mini state 0:08:46.720 --> 0:08:51.079 controlled by him and under Sharia law in Itlab, a 0:08:51.160 --> 0:08:54.920 city of about five million people. They established a civilian 0:08:55.000 --> 0:08:59.120 front called the Syrian Salvation Government. They ruled like a state. 0:08:59.240 --> 0:09:02.839 They had a prime minister and a government department. He 0:09:03.080 --> 0:09:06.880 tried to change his image as a moderate ruler who 0:09:07.040 --> 0:09:10.720 supports order, but those who lived under his rule accuse 0:09:10.800 --> 0:09:15.800 him of silencing opposition, targeting journalists, and imposing hearts restrictions. 0:09:15.880 --> 0:09:20.320 He basically ruled a Serallah ruling, so some Syrians are 0:09:20.400 --> 0:09:24.120 now questioning whether they exchange one form of an authoritarian 0:09:24.240 --> 0:09:29.040 regime for another. He's a dangerous militant jihadist, which will 0:09:29.120 --> 0:09:33.440 complicate any diplomatic recognition of his government. We basically now 0:09:34.000 --> 0:09:39.480 have a melting pot of Al Qaida and Isis all together, 0:09:40.040 --> 0:09:42.920 who just took control of Syria and now they have 0:09:43.080 --> 0:09:44.480 a country that they control. 0:09:45.600 --> 0:09:48.520 Well, we'll see how far they get in their radicalism. 0:09:48.679 --> 0:09:50.000 Gordon Shang your take. 0:09:51.200 --> 0:09:55.640 Well, the situation reminds me of Henry Kissinger's famous comment 0:09:55.840 --> 0:09:58.840 from another conflict when he said that he wished both 0:09:58.920 --> 0:10:02.760 sides could lose. And yes, there's some very dangerous elements 0:10:02.800 --> 0:10:05.680 who are coming to power in Syria and they are 0:10:05.840 --> 0:10:07.480 going to be ones where we're going to have to 0:10:07.559 --> 0:10:10.200 deal with one way or another because they'll come for us. 0:10:10.760 --> 0:10:14.280 But the important point here, Sean is that both. 0:10:14.679 --> 0:10:16.600 But Gordon is not that they're going to come for us. 0:10:16.679 --> 0:10:18.920 We know there are known terrorists in the country right 0:10:19.000 --> 0:10:21.280 now that Harris and Biden Lenin. 0:10:22.360 --> 0:10:26.680 Yes, and Iranian operatives are operating freely in the United States. 0:10:27.080 --> 0:10:29.319 As a part of the nine to eleven deal last year, 0:10:29.640 --> 0:10:33.880 Biden actually gave clemency to five Iranian operatives, allowed three 0:10:33.960 --> 0:10:36.000 of them to stay in the United States at a 0:10:36.080 --> 0:10:39.800 time when Iran was trying to assassinate Secretary of State 0:10:39.920 --> 0:10:43.800 Mike Pompeo and some other senior State Department officials. So 0:10:43.920 --> 0:10:46.160 we know that they're here, and we know that this 0:10:46.360 --> 0:10:49.760 is going to give them incentives to move against us quickly. 0:10:50.960 --> 0:10:53.640 But the important point about Syria right now is that 0:10:53.880 --> 0:10:56.839 both Russia and Iran and as well as China have 0:10:57.080 --> 0:11:00.280 lost an important pawn on the chess board, and that 0:11:00.480 --> 0:11:03.240 means we're just a little bit safer for now. But 0:11:03.440 --> 0:11:06.319 as you point out, they are going to be this 0:11:06.679 --> 0:11:08.080 is going to be a base for terrorism. 0:11:09.280 --> 0:11:11.439 Well, I think that's the challenging part. The only good 0:11:11.520 --> 0:11:13.760 thing I think you rightly point out, Brigitet, is that 0:11:14.400 --> 0:11:16.920 Vladimir has been trying to get a foothold in the 0:11:17.040 --> 0:11:20.240 region and be a dominant player in the Middle East, 0:11:20.320 --> 0:11:22.199 and I think that pretty much takes him out of 0:11:22.240 --> 0:11:25.600 the game except for his relationship with the Iranians. 0:11:25.640 --> 0:11:27.280 Am I wrong in that analysis? 0:11:28.400 --> 0:11:29.280 No, you are not wrong. 0:11:29.440 --> 0:11:31.079 That does take him out of the game. But we 0:11:31.200 --> 0:11:33.719 have another player that just entered the game, and that's 0:11:33.920 --> 0:11:37.400 Ordidan in Turkey. Ortigon is the one who supported the 0:11:37.480 --> 0:11:40.400 rebel groups in Syria because he wanted to stick it 0:11:40.440 --> 0:11:43.640 to us because Asad snubbed him and he did not 0:11:43.880 --> 0:11:46.160 help him when he needed to help in twenty eleven. 0:11:46.720 --> 0:11:50.160 And so Ortigan, who looks at himself as the leader 0:11:50.280 --> 0:11:53.800 of the Sunny World, he wants to lead and he 0:11:54.000 --> 0:11:57.760 believes that by defeating the American Empire, by defeating the 0:11:57.960 --> 0:12:03.000 Western Empire, western civilization, he will will usher in into 0:12:03.080 --> 0:12:05.920 the Middle East and you age of the Middle East 0:12:05.960 --> 0:12:09.480 and age where Islam will come back to its former glory. 0:12:09.880 --> 0:12:13.560 So he wants now to use Syria to basically establish 0:12:13.640 --> 0:12:17.720 a name for himself. Now, remember Oregon is the power 0:12:17.800 --> 0:12:19.959 to be reckoned with. This is this is Turkey we're 0:12:20.000 --> 0:12:23.840 talking about. This is not some offshoot crazy terrorist organization, 0:12:24.360 --> 0:12:27.079 but this is what Orgon wants to do. And with 0:12:27.280 --> 0:12:31.240 Hayata Rirasham, this guy, now this group that just won 0:12:31.480 --> 0:12:35.280 over Syria. What they're talking about, which is the same 0:12:35.679 --> 0:12:39.560 goal that Ordergon wants, which is the liberation of Asham 0:12:39.800 --> 0:12:42.880 the levant and what they mean by that that include 0:12:43.000 --> 0:12:46.880 that's the Islamic name of Syria, which not only includes Syria, 0:12:47.400 --> 0:12:51.840 but also Lebanon, Jordan and Israel. So when they talk 0:12:51.880 --> 0:12:55.439 about when this guy Julani talks about freedom and independence 0:12:55.480 --> 0:12:58.920 from Sham, he is talking about all these countries. So 0:12:59.120 --> 0:13:01.760 now he and or again have that goal and that 0:13:01.920 --> 0:13:04.760 shared goal together. So now we have a new problem 0:13:05.000 --> 0:13:08.160 and paying attention to what Oregon in Turkey is going 0:13:08.200 --> 0:13:08.360 to do. 0:13:08.800 --> 0:13:10.920 All right, let's go to our busy phones. You know, 0:13:11.080 --> 0:13:14.200 I think that Brigitte Gordon is right on the money 0:13:14.280 --> 0:13:20.560 because Ernan of Turkey was out there even this weekend. 0:13:21.640 --> 0:13:25.040 He's gotten more radicalized every single year he's been in power, 0:13:25.760 --> 0:13:31.479 and you know, praising the efforts of people in quote Palestine, 0:13:32.160 --> 0:13:35.679 uh and Gaza and Lebanon, those that have been at 0:13:35.720 --> 0:13:38.640 war with Israel, and talking about the end of Western 0:13:38.720 --> 0:13:44.400 civilization and how you know this, this new divine Islamist 0:13:44.640 --> 0:13:47.320 order would rule the entire world. And he talked about 0:13:47.360 --> 0:13:50.079 the East versus the West. And then I'm like, why 0:13:50.200 --> 0:13:53.839 is Turkey still a member state of NATO? Why why 0:13:53.880 --> 0:13:55.719 do we have any alliance with this guy at all? 0:13:55.880 --> 0:13:59.640 I think he now has emerged as a radical Islamist himself. 0:14:01.559 --> 0:14:05.640 Yeah, exactly, And that's a scary part. And for the 0:14:05.720 --> 0:14:08.520 longest time, people did not really pay that much attention 0:14:08.640 --> 0:14:11.360 to Turkey. I mean we heard about Turkey and supporting 0:14:11.480 --> 0:14:14.839 terrorism when they supported the flotilla. Remember those years when 0:14:14.840 --> 0:14:17.360 the flotilla was, you know, launched against Israel. They were 0:14:17.360 --> 0:14:19.840 going to Israel. So we heard a little bit about 0:14:19.880 --> 0:14:24.000 the radicalism of Turkey. But after the couple, Ordagon had 0:14:24.160 --> 0:14:26.840 such power. He has such power right now. And what 0:14:27.040 --> 0:14:29.000 makes him more dangerous is, like you said, he's a 0:14:29.080 --> 0:14:33.320 member of NATO. He's not some just crazy offshoot, you know, 0:14:33.520 --> 0:14:35.920 terrorist group that just took control of a country. 0:14:36.360 --> 0:14:36.480 Uh. 0:14:36.680 --> 0:14:39.560 He is dangerous and he has the power, major power 0:14:39.640 --> 0:14:41.440 to be able to help those rebels. 0:14:41.480 --> 0:14:42.400 And right now he is. 0:14:42.520 --> 0:14:45.960 Basking in the victory. He got rid of sad and 0:14:46.320 --> 0:14:47.600 he feels powerful right now. 0:14:48.320 --> 0:14:49.800 Let's get your take, Gordon Shine. 0:14:50.880 --> 0:14:54.120 Yeah. I think the most difficult issue for the United 0:14:54.120 --> 0:14:56.800 States and for the West is what you and bridget 0:14:56.920 --> 0:14:58.720 have been talking about, and that is what do you 0:14:58.800 --> 0:15:02.520 do about Turkey? Because Erduwan has turned into a bad actor. 0:15:03.040 --> 0:15:06.600 But unfortunately he sits on some critical real estate, which 0:15:06.680 --> 0:15:09.560 is the control of the Bosporus, control of the Black Sea, 0:15:10.240 --> 0:15:13.800 and also a large portion on the Mediterranean Sea, and 0:15:14.720 --> 0:15:17.240 NATO has tried to wait him out and that has 0:15:17.360 --> 0:15:21.040 not been successful. It is one of those things, especially 0:15:21.120 --> 0:15:21.680 with the war. 0:15:21.600 --> 0:15:25.160 In Ukraine, that has given Ertuwan so much more influence 0:15:25.240 --> 0:15:28.600 throughout the world. And now he has back, at least 0:15:28.640 --> 0:15:32.240 for the moment, the winning side in Syria. I suspect 0:15:32.320 --> 0:15:35.640 that the forces in Syria now don't need Turkey as much, 0:15:35.720 --> 0:15:38.520 and so Erduwan will not have as much influence as 0:15:38.920 --> 0:15:42.440 many people think. But nonetheless he's become much more powerful. 0:15:42.520 --> 0:15:43.960 As Bridget has just mentioned. 0:15:45.200 --> 0:15:49.360 Yeah, well, I think Ertowan is a real, clear present 0:15:49.480 --> 0:15:53.520 danger to the world and if anybody heard his radical 0:15:53.560 --> 0:15:55.600 speech this weekend, we would know that we're dealing with 0:15:55.680 --> 0:15:58.720 an enemy and not somebody that should be a part 0:15:58.880 --> 0:16:01.800 of NATO. And my view anyway, eight hundred ninety four 0:16:01.840 --> 0:16:03.600 one Shawn is a number if you want to if 0:16:03.600 --> 0:16:05.560 you want to be a part of the program. All right, 0:16:05.640 --> 0:16:07.840 quick break right back. When we get back, we'll hit 0:16:07.880 --> 0:16:10.400 the phones. Eight hundred ninety four one Shawn our number 0:16:10.400 --> 0:16:11.680 if you want to be a part of the program. 0:16:12.240 --> 0:16:13.920 Twenty five to the top of the hour. Thank you 0:16:14.000 --> 0:16:15.640 for being with us. Eight hundred and ninety four one 0:16:15.720 --> 0:16:17.200 seawn our number. If you want to be a part 0:16:17.200 --> 0:16:19.480 of the program. You know, the holidays, it can be 0:16:19.680 --> 0:16:23.440 really difficult for children that lost a mother a father 0:16:23.800 --> 0:16:27.280 in the line of duty. When Sergeant Stephensplan suffered a 0:16:27.320 --> 0:16:30.840 heart attack while on fire duty, well, you were there 0:16:30.960 --> 0:16:33.840 to lift this family up during the Tunnels of Towers 0:16:34.120 --> 0:16:37.280 and their Foundation their season of hope. And because of 0:16:37.360 --> 0:16:41.400 your generosity, your kindness, and your help, dozens of families 0:16:41.800 --> 0:16:44.840 are receiving the gift of a mortgage free home or 0:16:44.920 --> 0:16:48.840 especially adapted smart home this holiday season. And through Tunnels 0:16:48.880 --> 0:16:51.760 of Towers heroes their families. In other words, the people 0:16:51.840 --> 0:16:55.240 that sacrifice so much for all of us in our towns, 0:16:55.280 --> 0:16:58.560 our communities, our country, they're having the burden of a 0:16:58.640 --> 0:17:03.040 mortgage lifted off their shoulders and a place to call home. Anyway, 0:17:03.120 --> 0:17:06.119 your support is changing lives. It brings the light of 0:17:06.240 --> 0:17:09.360 hope into the homes of people who have been darkened 0:17:09.359 --> 0:17:12.520 by tragedy. And your gift to the Foundation during what 0:17:12.800 --> 0:17:15.640 is their season of hope, it's probably the most meaningful 0:17:15.680 --> 0:17:18.919 gift you're going to give this holiday season, and your kindness, 0:17:18.960 --> 0:17:22.120 your generosity, it will bring help, It will bring hope 0:17:22.200 --> 0:17:25.200 to the heroes, their families that are so deserving of 0:17:25.280 --> 0:17:27.760 our gratitude. Anyway, we hope you'll join us here at 0:17:27.760 --> 0:17:30.320 Team Hannity. Go to their website. It's the letter T, 0:17:30.800 --> 0:17:33.000 the number two, the letter T dot org. The letter 0:17:33.080 --> 0:17:35.359 T the number two, the letter T dot org for 0:17:35.440 --> 0:17:40.440 the Tunnel to Towers Foundation. So President Trump went on 0:17:41.040 --> 0:17:46.400 NBC's Meet the Pressed with Kristen Welker, and he said 0:17:46.400 --> 0:17:49.000 a lot of things that got a lot of attention. 0:17:50.600 --> 0:17:53.720 And you know, if we really go by Joe Biden 0:17:54.119 --> 0:17:57.480 and what we know he did that he leveraged the 0:17:57.560 --> 0:18:01.159 billion tax pay dollars to get a prosecutor in Ukraine 0:18:01.240 --> 0:18:03.040 fired in six hours. 0:18:03.480 --> 0:18:05.040 I said, I'm not going to go over. 0:18:05.240 --> 0:18:06.720 We're not going to give you the billion dollars. 0:18:07.560 --> 0:18:09.719 They said, you have no authority, you're not the president, 0:18:09.800 --> 0:18:10.480 the president said. 0:18:10.520 --> 0:18:11.239 I said, call him. 0:18:12.800 --> 0:18:14.760 I said, I'm telling you're not getting a billion dollars. 0:18:15.359 --> 0:18:17.080 I said, you're not getting a billion. I'm gonna be 0:18:17.119 --> 0:18:17.520 leaving here. 0:18:17.640 --> 0:18:18.879 I think it was what six hours. 0:18:18.920 --> 0:18:21.040 I look at I said'm leaving the six hours If 0:18:21.080 --> 0:18:23.320 the prosecutor's not fired. You're not getting the money. 0:18:23.880 --> 0:18:28.600 Oh, son of them, I got fired the prosecutor that 0:18:28.760 --> 0:18:34.439 was investigating the company, the oil giant Parisma, the energy 0:18:34.520 --> 0:18:38.440 giant Parisma that was paying his then crack addicted son 0:18:39.440 --> 0:18:42.720 millions and millions of dollars, although he had no experience, 0:18:42.800 --> 0:18:45.920 in his own words, in oil, energy, gas or Ukraine. 0:18:46.320 --> 0:18:51.080 There's been a lot of misinformation about me, not about 0:18:51.119 --> 0:18:53.720 my dad. Nobody buys that, but ad buys this idea 0:18:53.840 --> 0:18:55.480 that I was unqualified to be on the board. 0:18:55.560 --> 0:18:57.920 What were your qualifications to be on the board of Parisma? 0:18:58.160 --> 0:18:59.920 Well, I was vice chamer of the board of Amtrak 0:19:00.119 --> 0:19:02.440 for five years. I was the chairman of the board 0:19:02.520 --> 0:19:04.840 of the UN World Food Program. I was a lawyer 0:19:05.080 --> 0:19:07.920 for Boys Schiller Flexner, one of the most prestigious law 0:19:07.960 --> 0:19:08.879 firms in the world. 0:19:09.240 --> 0:19:09.800 You didn't have. 0:19:09.880 --> 0:19:13.960 Any extensive knowledge about natural gas or Ukraine itself. 0:19:13.680 --> 0:19:16.560 Though, No, But I think that I had as much 0:19:16.600 --> 0:19:17.679 knowledge as anybody else that was. 0:19:17.680 --> 0:19:19.360 On the board, if not more. 0:19:19.680 --> 0:19:21.360 In the list you gave me of the reasons why 0:19:21.480 --> 0:19:23.880 you're on that board, you did not list the fact 0:19:23.880 --> 0:19:25.000 that you were the son of them. 0:19:25.080 --> 0:19:27.600 Of course, Yeah, what rule do you think that played. 0:19:28.200 --> 0:19:30.320 I think that it is impossible for me to be 0:19:30.520 --> 0:19:32.359 on any of the boards that I just mentioned without 0:19:32.400 --> 0:19:34.159 saying I'm the son of the Vice President of. 0:19:34.119 --> 0:19:34.720 The United States. 0:19:34.840 --> 0:19:37.040 If your last name wasn't Biden, do you think you 0:19:37.080 --> 0:19:39.120 would have been asked to be on the board of Barisma. 0:19:39.840 --> 0:19:42.000 I don't know. I don't know, probably not. 0:19:42.400 --> 0:19:43.960 I don't think that there's a lot of things that 0:19:43.960 --> 0:19:46.440 would have happened in my life that if my last 0:19:46.520 --> 0:19:47.240 name wasn't Biden. 0:19:48.000 --> 0:19:52.879 No experience at all whatsoever. And the prosecutor is investigating this, 0:19:53.520 --> 0:19:56.119 and he gave him six hours and threatens to withhold 0:19:56.200 --> 0:19:59.159 a billion dollars in loan guarantees. 0:20:00.080 --> 0:20:01.400 Son of a bee, they fired them. 0:20:02.080 --> 0:20:05.160 Now, that coupled with the weaponization of the Justice Department, 0:20:05.320 --> 0:20:09.400 politicizing the FBI and the DOJ, the double standard when 0:20:09.400 --> 0:20:10.359 it comes to justice in. 0:20:10.400 --> 0:20:11.639 America, I e. 0:20:12.000 --> 0:20:14.000 The rate at maur Lago, but no rate on the 0:20:14.040 --> 0:20:18.600 four locations Joe has top secret classified documents, or Hillary 0:20:18.640 --> 0:20:22.960 Clinton's home or Hillary Clinton's office anyway. Donald Trump was 0:20:23.000 --> 0:20:27.680 asked about this. He said, it's not his decision. And yeah, 0:20:28.440 --> 0:20:30.840 if I think, if you look at the law, I 0:20:30.920 --> 0:20:34.680 think a prosecutor could absolutely bring this before a grand 0:20:34.760 --> 0:20:38.399 jury and there could be indictments involving Joe and his family. 0:20:39.040 --> 0:20:43.399 I do believe that. Anyway, here's Donald Trump's answer to that. Well, 0:20:43.480 --> 0:20:44.119 let me ask you this. 0:20:44.240 --> 0:20:48.160 You said, President Biden quote that you're going to appoint 0:20:48.240 --> 0:20:50.960 a real special prosecutor to go after Joe Biden. You 0:20:51.040 --> 0:20:54.480 said that the campaign. You said that on Truth Social 0:20:54.560 --> 0:20:56.760 June twelfth, twenty twenty three. I will appoint a real 0:20:56.760 --> 0:20:59.520 special prosecutor to go after the most corrupt president in 0:20:59.600 --> 0:21:01.520 the history of the United States, Joe Biden and. 0:21:01.520 --> 0:21:04.119 The entire Bid parties, crime family. Are you going to 0:21:04.160 --> 0:21:04.320 do that? 0:21:04.400 --> 0:21:05.960 Are you going to go after Joe Biden. 0:21:06.880 --> 0:21:09.800 I'm really looking to make our country successful. I'm not 0:21:09.920 --> 0:21:11.960 looking to go back into the past. I'm looking to 0:21:12.000 --> 0:21:13.320 make our country successful. 0:21:13.960 --> 0:21:15.639 I want to pause here because what you're saying is 0:21:15.680 --> 0:21:19.400 significant because you wrote on Truth Social in twenty twenty 0:21:19.440 --> 0:21:21.440 three that you're going to point a real special prosecutor 0:21:21.480 --> 0:21:23.240 to go after Joe Biden. Now you're saying you're not 0:21:23.320 --> 0:21:23.800 going to do that. 0:21:25.880 --> 0:21:28.600 I will say this, no, I'm not doing that unless 0:21:28.720 --> 0:21:32.680 I find something that I think is reasonable. But that's 0:21:32.720 --> 0:21:34.359 not going to be my decision. That's going to be 0:21:34.440 --> 0:21:39.520 Pambondi's decision, and to a different extent, cash Betel, assuming 0:21:39.600 --> 0:21:41.359 they're both there, and I think they're both going to 0:21:41.400 --> 0:21:44.639 get approved. But I you know, while you ask me 0:21:44.760 --> 0:21:50.320 that what they've done to me with weaponization is a disgrace. 0:21:51.000 --> 0:21:55.520 Then he was asked if you know we're subsidizing these 0:21:55.680 --> 0:21:59.760 other countries, like he's talking about Canada, and he said, well, 0:21:59.760 --> 0:22:01.840 I don't we make it the fifty first state, the 0:22:01.920 --> 0:22:04.639 state of Canada, which I think is hilarious. A lot 0:22:04.680 --> 0:22:07.000 of people on the left, they just don't know what 0:22:07.160 --> 0:22:08.040 to make of Donald Trump. 0:22:08.119 --> 0:22:10.000
