Yeah, that should not be worry. 50 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 10: So I'm going to give you an example of something 51 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 10: that I did with a recent case of mind, and 52 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 10: this was never has never been done in my office. 53 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 10: I had a murder case where the defendant did not 54 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:40,080 Speaker 10: intentionally kill the victim. 55 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:42,120 Speaker 1: He went into an atm on. 56 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 10: The Upper West Side and tried to rob an individual. 57 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 4: Unfortunately, it was an older individual. 58 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 10: He was eighty six, and in the course of the 59 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 10: robbery he fell to the ground. As a result, he died. 60 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,680 Speaker 11: This is under the law, a felony murder, which is 61 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 11: akin to intentional murder. However, when I first got the case, 62 00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:12,920 Speaker 11: I learned I took the time to learn about the defendant, 63 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 11: and it was a strong case. 64 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:17,840 Speaker 4: So it wasn't about who'd done it. 65 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 12: And knew immediately who did it. 66 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 2: I could prove it. 67 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 10: I could take it to the trial that day and win it. 68 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:24,120 Speaker 1: But it wasn't about that. 69 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 10: It was that the more I learned about the defendant 70 00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 10: and his life and the circumstances, the kinds of things 71 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:34,440 Speaker 10: that Darrelle was talking about, that one should take into 72 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 10: account the trauma of that individual. I really felt incredibly 73 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 10: sorry for him that he had gotten to that point 74 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 10: in his life where he felt like there was no 75 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 10: other choice but to commit this robbery. 76 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 13: What you represent, your presence here is that the largest 77 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 13: multi day event and Conservative grap Si Sister. 78 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 4: Is a message that will be heard by these people. 79 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:15,360 Speaker 14: Enisars from all of its unstable because it brings everyone's 80 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 14: my favorite of the energy. 81 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:39,280 Speaker 4: Let's just watch this year mistake survived, only. 82 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 1: Begun to s. 83 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 6: Every day there's a battle for your mind, raging information 84 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 6: coming from every angle. 85 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,479 Speaker 2: With the will to the sea, fear not. 86 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 15: You found the place for truth, the voice a generation, 87 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 15: it still has the will to believe in the greatest 88 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 15: country in the history of the world. 89 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 1: This is the Charlie Kirk Show. 90 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 4: Tuck a lot here we go. 91 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 13: Okay, everybody, Radio stations across the country honored to be 92 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 13: with you. 93 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 2: As always. 94 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,720 Speaker 13: It is a breaking and busy news day today.

Jony 110 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:29,920 Speaker 13: Ernst ran as someone that was going to try to 111 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 13: change the business as usual process in Washington, d C. Now, 112 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:37,160 Speaker 13: I've actually never met Jony. It's one of the few 113 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 13: senators I have never had a chance to meet.

She does 117 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 13: not pick big fights. She goes with leadership. She is 118 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:54,840 Speaker 13: a neocon. Jony Ernst believes in invading the world and 119 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:58,160 Speaker 13: inviting the world. Jony Ernst is of the mold of 120 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:01,799 Speaker 13: Liz Cheney, and in fact, she piled around with Nicky 121 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:06,839 Speaker 13: Haley during this last primary. She showed Nicky Haley around 122 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 13: at the Iowa State Fair.

Jony Ernst herself wants to have Pete Hegseth's job. 128 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 13: It's the worst kept secret in Washington, d C. Jony 129 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:34,640 Speaker 13: Ernst wants to become the Secretary of Defense. And since 130 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 13: she wants to become the Secretary of Defense, she has 131 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 13: launched a very nasty, below the surface campaign to try 132 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 13: and torpedo and thwart Pete Hegseeth and with that go 133 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 13: against President Trump. Jony Ernst has decided to play a 134 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 13: little cute s to say, oh, I don't know if 135 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 13: I'm for Pete haig Seth. You see, they're artificially trying 136 00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 13: to create a narrative that the women of the Senate 137 00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 13: are against Pete Hegseth because of an email his mom 138 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 13: sent and then she said that she didn't mean it. 139 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,559 Speaker 13: Now she's one hundred percent behind her son, or because 140 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 13: of the fake accusations of this woman that obviously was 141 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 13: lying to Pete Hegseth in a Kavanaugh type smear. So 142 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 13: Jony Ernst is now being flushed out and is being 143 00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 13: singled out as being the reason why all of a 144 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 13: sudden heg Seth is having all of these issues, all 145 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 13: these difficulties. 146 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 4: This is Joni Ernst who is. 147 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 13: Asked a question today of whether or not she supports 148 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 13: Pete Hegseth becoming the Secretary of Events. Play cut went away, 149 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:44,680 Speaker 13: play cut. 150 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:47,280 Speaker 2: I want to support his nomination. 151 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:53,080 Speaker 9: Well, I did have a very long, lengthy discussion with 152 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 9: Pete yesterday, and I do appreciate his service to the nation. 153 00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 9: I also am a combat ve and so we talked 154 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 9: about a number of those issues and we will continue 155 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 9: with the vetting process. I think that that is incredibly important. 156 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 9: So again, all I'm saying is we had a very 157 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 9: frank and productive discussion, and I know that we will 158 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 9: continue to have conversation in the upcoming month. 159 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:22,880 Speaker 13: Back back it up, Hold on a second, wait, what 160 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:26,559 Speaker 13: is your objection? Then? That is military cabal double speak. 161 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 13: And for the great patriots in Iowa, I hope you 162 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:31,600 Speaker 13: are listening carefully because you are not being represented well 163 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 13: by Senator Ernst. 164 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 4: Basically, she is. 165 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:39,200 Speaker 13: Defending a deep state at the Department of Defense. However, 166 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 13: hold on a second, she won't commit to vote for 167 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 13: Pete Hegseth. But do you know who she did vote for, 168 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:46,560 Speaker 13: and she wasn't alone. Let's put one on nine up 169 00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:51,439 Speaker 13: on screen. This is Jony Ernst's boy. This is Jony 170 00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:58,200 Speaker 13: Ernst's man right there boom, center stage, Lloyd Austin.

There's so much that we can spend 175 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:14,440 Speaker 13: on Lloyd Austin. But do you remember when he was 176 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 13: hospitalized and his chief of staff didn't tell the president 177 00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 13: for several days. And of course he also oversaw purging 178 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:26,200 Speaker 13: thousands of experienced troops to pursue a politically motivated vaccine mandate, 179 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,440 Speaker 13: one of which where Jony Ernst did not fight the 180 00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 13: fact that tens of thousands of troops got kicked out 181 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 13: of the military for not whining to take the COVID shot. 182 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:39,560 Speaker 4: That is Joony Ernst. 183 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 13: Now, Johnny Earnt's not saying one way or the other, 184 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 13: but this is the new playbook of what the Senate. 185 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 4: Is trying to do. 186 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 13: The Senate is trying to stop Trump's agenda before it's 187 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:54,199 Speaker 13: to a vote. Now, Lloyd Austin, who Joni Ernst voted for, 188 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:58,200 Speaker 13: and so did deb Fisher and Hoven and Lankfort and 189 00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:02,079 Speaker 13: Roger Wicker and John they all voted for Lloyd Austin, 190 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:06,199 Speaker 13: that man up on screen. They all gave Biden his boy. 191 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:11,200 Speaker 13: They all gave Joe Biden his defense secretary. They all 192 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 13: gave Joe Biden his secretary of Defense, his secretary of state. However, 193 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,200 Speaker 13: when it comes to Pete heik Seth, they come up 194 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 13: with all of this. Well, you know, there's a lot 195 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 13: of accusations. What exaccusations? Eximpally bother you? Oh no, what 196 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:33,199 Speaker 13: bothers you? And now we're getting down to the essence 197 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 13: is that Pete Hegseth is focused on the US military 198 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:38,960 Speaker 13: on lethality, lethality, lethality. 199 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 4: Ooh, Joni Earns doesn't like that. 200 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:44,320 Speaker 13: She wants bureaucracy, bureaucracy, bureaucracy. 201 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 4: Do you see the difference. 202 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:53,359 Speaker 13: Pete Hegseth wants lethality, lethality, lethality. Jony Ernst wants bureaucracy bureaucracy. 203 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 4: Bureaucracy. 204 00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 13: Here's a little bit of a gaggle of around the 205 00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 13: horn of Lindsey Graham, of Roger Wicker, who is the 206 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:08,080 Speaker 13: chair of the Senate Armed Services Committee, of them all 207 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:10,840 Speaker 13: kind of going around the horn. And this shows you 208 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 13: how much the US Senate does not care about you. 209 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:16,400 Speaker 13: And it is time that we start to increase the temperature. 210 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 13: Everybody start calling Senate offices. This peteg Set thing has 211 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 13: gone on way too long, way too far. Now. I 212 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:25,200 Speaker 13: was willing to kind of give them, okay, advice and consent, 213 00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 13: and now they're playing games. Why Jony Earns herself wants 214 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 13: to become Secretary Defense, let's play cuts ninety nine. 215 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 8: There are questions that some members have and we're going 216 00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:42,679 Speaker 8: to be working for an answer. 217 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 1: Are you among the members who have questions? Well, I'm 218 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 1: looking to be supporting with the articles I've read. 219 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:50,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, so number have been starting. I don't know if 220 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,000 Speaker 4: it's true or not, but he'll go through the process. 221 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 5: He'll be asking about it, see what happens. I'm being 222 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,240 Speaker 5: careful until I hear everything. I there. 223 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 1: I had a chance to talk with him or with. 224 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 5: Him yet, and I think that's all part of the 225 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 5: very important process. 226 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:09,560 Speaker 13: Okay, but you notice none of them gave that kind 227 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:13,360 Speaker 13: of double talk to any Biden's defense nominees. In fact, 228 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 13: we pulled up the role call of Joe Biden nominee 229 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 13: Lloyd Austin. Do you know that Lloyd Austin that joke 230 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 13: to our country? Keep that image up on screen. I 231 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 13: want that tattoo into the memory of our audience right now. 232 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 13: He received ninety three votes from the US Senate and 233 00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:36,959 Speaker 13: only two no votes. Do you know the only two 234 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,120 Speaker 13: no votes were Josh Holly and Mike Lee. And then 235 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,679 Speaker 13: there were five people that weren't there that were just absent. 236 00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:44,320 Speaker 4: Ninety three yes. 237 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 13: Votes, ninety three Pete heg Saith if he survives, will 238 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 13: probably be at fifty or at fifty one. Why is 239 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:58,360 Speaker 13: it that Republican senators are so excited and move fast 240 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 13: to give Joe Biden his nominee, but Republican senators don't 241 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 13: want to give Donald Trump his nominees. 242 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 4: What is going on here? 243 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:09,600 Speaker 13: Well, we're going to keep on naming the names and 244 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 13: tell you more about the folklore of johny Arnston, Roger Wicker, 245 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 13: and Deb Fisher.

The House Ethics 284 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 12: Committee authored that report following an investigation into the allegations. 285 00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 12: It hasn't been released, though, because Gates resigned a seat 286 00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:23,800 Speaker 12: in Congress before the report was set to be released 287 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 12: in order to focus on confirmation for Attorney General. 288 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:28,960 Speaker 2: He has since bout out of that as well. 289 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 12: As such, though House leadership argued that releasing the report 290 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:35,800 Speaker 12: would be outside of its jurisdiction since Gates was no 291 00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 12: longer a member of Congress. Tuesday, Democrat Illinois Congressman Sean 292 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:43,840 Speaker 12: Casten filed a privileged resolution calling for the release of 293 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:46,920 Speaker 12: the document.

This is 504 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 14: something that was investigated by the police, and they went 505 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 14: through it, and they actually did a really good investigation. 506 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:33,399 Speaker 14: I went through the police support and they started with 507 00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:36,200 Speaker 14: her statement and then started to get other statements to 508 00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:39,960 Speaker 14: try and corroborate it, and ultimately the very last statement 509 00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:42,479 Speaker 14: that they took with Pets, he did something I wouldn't 510 00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 14: normally have a client do. He spoke to them without 511 00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:47,360 Speaker 14: me there. But in this case it turned out to 512 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:51,400 Speaker 14: his benefit. And so you take her statement, you know, 513 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:54,000 Speaker 14: which is pretty damning onto itself, but then you try 514 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:56,800 Speaker 14: and compare it to everything else that the other people said, 515 00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:00,240 Speaker 14: and you know that she's lying because she said sitting 516 00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:02,760 Speaker 14: there saying, you know, I don't remember anything. 517 00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 1: I must have been drugged. 518 00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:06,560 Speaker 14: And yet she leaves the bar one point thirty, she 519 00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 14: goes upstairs with Pete, and she's back in her hotel 520 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:12,360 Speaker 14: room with her husband at four am. In that you know, 521 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:17,719 Speaker 14: very brief period of time. Her husband says, no, slow words, 522 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:22,560 Speaker 14: steady gait, she wasn't drugged. Okay, anybody that knows anything 523 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:25,240 Speaker 14: about these day rape drugs, there would have been significant 524 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 14: signs at that time. So she's lying about that. All 525 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:31,160 Speaker 14: of her coworkers are saying in the bar they saw 526 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:35,000 Speaker 14: her flirting with him. The police investigators went to the 527 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:39,240 Speaker 14: surveillance cameras and they showed she's the one leading him upstairs. 528 00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:41,400 Speaker 14: She's the one grabbing him by the arm and smiling 529 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:46,040 Speaker 14: and being seductive. Hotel employees also confirmed this. But then 530 00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:48,360 Speaker 14: you go look at his statement, his statement, which is 531 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:51,200 Speaker 14: something that makes a lot of sense. But the key 532 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 14: to me and reading his statement is at the very 533 00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 14: end where he says that after the consensual encounter, they 534 00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:59,120 Speaker 14: sat down and talked and she was starting to have regrets, 535 00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:00,960 Speaker 14: and she said, you know, I didn't go back to 536 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:03,720 Speaker 14: my husband's room. Here's what I'm going to do. I'm 537 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:05,760 Speaker 14: going to tell him I fell asleep on a friend's 538 00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:09,360 Speaker 14: couch and I'm very sorry. And yet when you go 539 00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:13,280 Speaker 14: to the husband's statement, he says, that's exactly what she said, 540 00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:17,160 Speaker 14: and she walked in the room. So the husband actually 541 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:22,240 Speaker 14: impeaches her credibility on this fake drug thing and supports 542 00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:25,560 Speaker 14: Pete's credibility by saying, this is what they discussed because 543 00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 14: this is exactly what she did. So it is something 544 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:30,520 Speaker 14: that the police were able to very easily look at 545 00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:34,160 Speaker 14: and say this was a consensual encounter. There was no 546 00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 14: sexual assault, they didn't press charges. That case is completely 547 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:41,040 Speaker 14: closed and it's obvious that it was false. 548 00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:49,880 Speaker 13: And just how this has continued to grow is remarkable. 549 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:53,320 Speaker 13: The other allegations come from The New Yorker and Concerned 550 00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:54,320 Speaker 13: Veterans for America. 551 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:55,160 Speaker 4: Let's go through those. 552 00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:58,479 Speaker 14: Yeah, So the New Yorker, what they did was they 553 00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:03,320 Speaker 14: took an anonymous complaint from years ago that somebody, a 554 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 14: disgruntled terminated employee, had written this screed to try and 555 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,320 Speaker 14: get Pete fire from Fox. Fox looked into these claims 556 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:15,000 Speaker 14: back then. I represented Pete at the time, and the 557 00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:19,240 Speaker 14: then trustee of Concerned Veterans of America wrote a letter 558 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:22,480 Speaker 14: to Fox debunking it and saying, no, he wasn't fired 559 00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:24,960 Speaker 14: for these things. No, he wasn't pushed out. Here's the 560 00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:27,880 Speaker 14: reason why he decided to leave. They had a philosophical 561 00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:31,240 Speaker 14: difference of opinion on certain things and he wanted to 562 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:33,280 Speaker 14: build his career Fox. That had nothing to do with 563 00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 14: any of that stuff they interviewed. 564 00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:36,680 Speaker 1: And you know, several of these. 565 00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:39,800 Speaker 14: People have since come on the record with their names 566 00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:43,840 Speaker 14: saying that all of these claims about you know, drunken incidents, 567 00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:45,800 Speaker 14: you know a strip club, all that kind of stuff, 568 00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:49,200 Speaker 14: all false people who were there, people were. 569 00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:51,360 Speaker 1: Willing to put their names on it, not anonymous you know, 570 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 1: so called. 571 00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:56,080 Speaker 14: Whistleblowers, and in fact, some of these things. You know, 572 00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 14: as a criminal defense leatner, I often say the best 573 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:02,760 Speaker 14: lines is you take a kernel of truth, then change 574 00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:05,760 Speaker 14: a few facts to try and make it fit a narrative. 575 00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 1: That's what they did here. So for example, this. 576 00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:11,560 Speaker 14: Story about the strip club of Pete getting drunk and 577 00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:15,600 Speaker 14: trying to climb up on stage. That happened, but it 578 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:19,440 Speaker 14: wasn't Pete, it was somebody else. He wasn't there, he 579 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:21,480 Speaker 14: wasn't at the event, he wasn't even in the state 580 00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:27,400 Speaker 14: at the time. So you have all this collection of statements. 581 00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:30,959 Speaker 14: There are of allegations that have all been completely debunked 582 00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:32,880 Speaker 14: by other people, but the New Yorker doesn't care about that, 583 00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:36,680 Speaker 14: you know, the New Yorker went and published that without 584 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:41,320 Speaker 14: bothering to check and get corroboration, because anonymous sources who 585 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:45,080 Speaker 14: are willing to say something damaging to the nominee is 586 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:47,120 Speaker 14: something that they can use to try and sync the 587 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 14: nomination process. 588 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 13: And so the other allegation comes from Fox that he 589 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:59,440 Speaker 13: has some sort of drinking problem, your thought, well, your 590 00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:00,200 Speaker 13: reaction of that. 591 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:03,960 Speaker 1: And you know this this again. 592 00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:08,000 Speaker 14: When the first you know, when this sexual assault allegation failed, 593 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:11,080 Speaker 14: they tried something new. Now they tried this CVA thing 594 00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:13,960 Speaker 14: that failed, so now it's something new. Now they have 595 00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:17,800 Speaker 14: a couple of anonymous you know, Fox employees who claim 596 00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:22,480 Speaker 14: these things happened. And yet you saw yesterday morning how 597 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:27,120 Speaker 14: out on x a ton of Fox News personalities and 598 00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:30,360 Speaker 14: employees came out on the record with their names saying, 599 00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:32,880 Speaker 14: I sat next to Pete for the past eight years, 600 00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:34,760 Speaker 14: this never happened. 601 00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:36,080 Speaker 1: You never smelled of alcohol. 602 00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:39,480 Speaker 14: And it is you know, it is just emblematic of 603 00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:42,959 Speaker 14: the larger problem here that if you don't have something 604 00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:45,960 Speaker 14: good to take down this nominee, if you don't have 605 00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:49,440 Speaker 14: something that's actually solid, you just go with somebody anonymous 606 00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:53,280 Speaker 14: who's willing to hide behind that anonymity and make these 607 00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:55,560 Speaker 14: false claims. And I keep asking these journalists, you know what, 608 00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:57,400 Speaker 14: if you want me to be able to respond to 609 00:33:57,480 --> 00:34:00,160 Speaker 14: this directly tell me who the person is so I 610 00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:03,720 Speaker 14: can tell you exactly what their problems are with credibility. 611 00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:05,640 Speaker 1: And of course, oh no, no, no, we have to 612 00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:07,080 Speaker 1: protect our sources. Can't. 613 00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:11,279 Speaker 14: We can't allow their credibility to be questioned. Well, then 614 00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:13,120 Speaker 14: why don't you go talk to any of these other people. 615 00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:15,759 Speaker 14: You know, The New York Times reports about these you know, 616 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:18,759 Speaker 14: these alleged incidents at Fox and when they asked me 617 00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:19,960 Speaker 14: about it, I said, that didn't happen. 618 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:22,319 Speaker 1: Well, do you have any witnesses? I said, that's your job. 619 00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:23,640 Speaker 1: You're the media. 620 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:26,400 Speaker 14: You want to put out an article, you have to 621 00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:29,920 Speaker 14: fact Checkie, it's easy to ascertain who else was there 622 00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:32,960 Speaker 14: at the time because it was televised. Call them up, 623 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 14: or just publish your fake article and wait for tomorrow 624 00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:38,640 Speaker 14: morning on next to see everybody come out and say 625 00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:41,279 Speaker 14: I was there, and the New York Times publish another 626 00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:41,920 Speaker 14: fake article. 627 00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:45,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, and so is that it. 628 00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:49,520 Speaker 13: So we're getting through a debunked sexual assault thing, that's nonsense, 629 00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:53,399 Speaker 13: some concerned veterans American things debunked, and that he does 630 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:55,520 Speaker 13: not have a drinking problem. I mean, this is what 631 00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:58,440 Speaker 13: we're spending our time on for Secretary of Defense. 632 00:34:59,640 --> 00:34:59,960 Speaker 1: Exactly. 633 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:03,160 Speaker 14: When you strip all the lies away, what you have 634 00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:07,160 Speaker 14: is that over a decade ago, a bunch of young 635 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:10,600 Speaker 14: combat veterans who came back from the war got together 636 00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:12,239 Speaker 14: and occasionally drank too much beer. 637 00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:15,880 Speaker 1: That's not news, that's that's not a scandal. 638 00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:18,440 Speaker 14: In fact, that that's the main revenue model of the 639 00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:22,440 Speaker 14: BFW and the American legion is alcohol sale in the 640 00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:27,920 Speaker 14: hall there. And guess what every single one of us did. Okay, 641 00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:30,759 Speaker 14: when I got out of the Navy, I drank too much. 642 00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:35,880 Speaker 14: My friends drank too much. But we mature, you know, 643 00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:40,440 Speaker 14: Pete matured. Pete overcame that. And unfortunately some of us didn't, 644 00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:43,279 Speaker 14: you know, and Pete and I both have lost many 645 00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:46,520 Speaker 14: friends into suicide that didn't overcome it. 646 00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:48,320 Speaker 1: But he did overcome it. 647 00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:50,880 Speaker 14: And this is why I look at the you know, 648 00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:53,879 Speaker 14: these allegations of past alcohol abuse. Everybody wants to say 649 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:57,640 Speaker 14: that's disqualifying. I say the exact opposite. I say the 650 00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:00,279 Speaker 14: fact that he went through that experience, you know, the 651 00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:04,520 Speaker 14: stresses of combat, the experiences of that, the effects of that, 652 00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:07,919 Speaker 14: and you know, using alcohol to self medicate and cope 653 00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:10,640 Speaker 14: with that and then overcoming it the way that he has. 654 00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:14,279 Speaker 14: That gives him a greater perspective than any Secretary of 655 00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:18,120 Speaker 14: Defense we've had in recent history to understand exactly what 656 00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:20,359 Speaker 14: every single man and woman that's going to be working 657 00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:23,400 Speaker 14: for him in that department is going through and what 658 00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:25,560 Speaker 14: they need, and it's going to give him a much 659 00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:28,160 Speaker 14: better perspective on how to take care of his people 660 00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:31,160 Speaker 14: instead of just sitting there in his ivory tower like 661 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:34,840 Speaker 14: these like Austin and Madison, all these guys passing judgment 662 00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:36,480 Speaker 14: on anybody that isn't perfect. 663 00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:40,799 Speaker 13: Yeah, I just I mean again, I wanted to say 664 00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:44,840 Speaker 13: that attacking Pete for having a prior drinking problem or 665 00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:48,600 Speaker 13: not problem, but just a prior drinking pattern that he's 666 00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:51,359 Speaker 13: overcome when it comes to the military is very rich. 667 00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:51,879 Speaker 2: DC. 668 00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:54,680 Speaker 13: I think is the drunkest city in the country. I 669 00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:57,880 Speaker 13: think there literally is a study that DC is the 670 00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:00,680 Speaker 13: drunkest city. And closing here, you've known Pete for a while. 671 00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:04,040 Speaker 13: He's served admirably. I know he's fighting like crazy and 672 00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:06,279 Speaker 13: he's trying to get out of this. Is there any 673 00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:09,160 Speaker 13: other accusation that hasn't I mean, this is it. This 674 00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:12,680 Speaker 13: is the weakest I've ever seen. Why are Senate Republicans 675 00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:14,480 Speaker 13: taking this crap seriously? 676 00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:16,239 Speaker 10: You know? 677 00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:18,719 Speaker 14: And this is one of the reasons why yesterday and 678 00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:21,040 Speaker 14: today Pete and I decided to come out, you know, 679 00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:25,359 Speaker 14: significantly on offense to attack these allegations, because every single 680 00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:29,880 Speaker 14: one of them has a perfect factual defense, and I 681 00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:32,880 Speaker 14: think that that's what these senators need to hear, is 682 00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:34,799 Speaker 14: they need to hear that defense so that they can 683 00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:38,320 Speaker 14: be comfortable with this nominee that all of these things 684 00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:41,400 Speaker 14: are fake, they're in the past, they have nothing to 685 00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:44,520 Speaker 14: do with the person that they're talking about putting into 686 00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:47,879 Speaker 14: the Pentagon. And if anything, his experience of not only 687 00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:50,440 Speaker 14: overcoming that at the time, but also now his experience 688 00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:54,240 Speaker 14: of overcoming it right here when everybody's trying to attack 689 00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:56,759 Speaker 14: him and he's able to overcome that, that's going to 690 00:37:56,800 --> 00:38:00,080 Speaker 14: make him a much stronger leader in the Pentagon. And 691 00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:05,520 Speaker 14: all he wants is a fair hearing. All he wants 692 00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:09,000 Speaker 14: is for the Senators to listen to him, ask him 693 00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:12,239 Speaker 14: the tough questions, give him the opportunity to respond, and 694 00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:15,160 Speaker 14: then make a decision based on a fair hearing of 695 00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:18,880 Speaker 14: the actual facts instead of fake anonymous claims. 696 00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:25,719 Speaker 13: Timothy, thank you for your time, excellent analysis, very thoughtful.

The Senate does not get 753 00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:22,560 Speaker 4: to act as if it's this. 754 00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:29,080 Speaker 13: Pretorian guard that is better than the American people, better 755 00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:32,320 Speaker 13: than Trump. We won the referendum. We presented a referendum 756 00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:36,640 Speaker 13: to the American people. We presented a binary choice. Do 757 00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:38,560 Speaker 13: you want to go the way to Kamala Harris Lloyd Austin? 758 00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:43,440 Speaker 13: And again, these Republicans voted for Lloyd Austin. These Republicans 759 00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:49,840 Speaker 13: voted for Merrick Garland, Roy who's gone? But Bill Cassidy 760 00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:54,480 Speaker 13: voted for Merrick Garland. John Cornyn voted for Merrick Garland. 761 00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:58,560 Speaker 13: Jony Ernst voted for Merrick Garland. Lindsay Graham voted for 762 00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:04,279 Speaker 13: Merrick Garland. James Langfort voted for Merrick Garland.

If you could only 767 00:43:16,239 --> 00:43:20,799 Speaker 13: choose one and they have to be in cycle, if 768 00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:26,759 Speaker 13: you could only choose one US senator to primary, who 769 00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:29,960 Speaker 13: would it be? I'm curious. So let's just gotta go 770 00:43:29,960 --> 00:43:34,160 Speaker 13: through the map. Idaho is up, so Alabama's up? Will 771 00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:38,040 Speaker 13: we like Tobby Teville. Dan Sullivan is up in Alaska, 772 00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:40,239 Speaker 13: but that's a little risky one because Alaska could be 773 00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:42,760 Speaker 13: really goof because of ranked choice voting, and he's been okay, 774 00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:46,000 Speaker 13: we'll put this aside. Tom Cotton is up. We like Tom, 775 00:43:46,280 --> 00:43:49,080 Speaker 13: so that win's aside. Georgia's up, but we don't control 776 00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:53,919 Speaker 13: any Senate seats there for very frustrating. Ooh, Jony Ernst 777 00:43:54,040 --> 00:43:59,560 Speaker 13: is up. That's an interesting one. There will be an 778 00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:02,480 Speaker 13: open Kentucky Senate race, so hopefully we can have a 779 00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:08,560 Speaker 13: real Maga conservative in the open Kentucky Senate primary race Maine. 780 00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:12,680 Speaker 13: No touching Susan Collins. We got some angry emails, Charlie, 781 00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:15,239 Speaker 13: Susan's the worst. She's a Republican senator in a deep 782 00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:18,000 Speaker 13: blue state. Who else could win statewide? We have an 783 00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:20,200 Speaker 13: extra Republican seat that voted for us when we need 784 00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:20,920 Speaker 13: it for Kavanaugh. 785 00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:22,239 Speaker 1: She's fine. 786 00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:23,760 Speaker 4: Susan Collins. 787 00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:26,640 Speaker 13: We're lucky to have fifty three seats because Susan Collins, 788 00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:28,400 Speaker 13: Cindy Hyde Smith and Mississippi. 789 00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:30,399 Speaker 4: Where are you, Cindy Hyde Smith? 790 00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:31,879 Speaker 13: If you come out and support of Pete Haig Seth, 791 00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:32,759 Speaker 13: I haven't heard a thing out of you. 792 00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:37,160 Speaker 4: You're on the list.

Oklahoma, 795 00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:49,480 Speaker 13: Mark Wayne Mullen, who's been great for President Trump and 796 00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:52,800 Speaker 13: we've developed a friendship. He's going to be speaking an Anfest, 797 00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:56,960 Speaker 13: I think, so there are no need to do anything there. 798 00:44:57,120 --> 00:44:59,520 Speaker 13: He's been great. Mike Browns, I'll tell you he's on 799 00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:03,280 Speaker 13: the list. John Cornyan is on the list, and Shelley 800 00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:05,040 Speaker 13: Moore Capito. So that's kind of our list. 801 00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:05,480 Speaker 1: Right there. 802 00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:08,759 Speaker 13: Here's the criteria. You must be in cycle. You must 803 00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:13,759 Speaker 13: be actively define the president's agenda vocally, repeatedly and publicly. 804 00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:16,360 Speaker 13: You must be a neo conservative, because why would we 805 00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:18,759 Speaker 13: primary someone if done neo conservative? And you must be 806 00:45:19,040 --> 00:45:21,919 Speaker 13: from a blood red state. We're not going to play 807 00:45:21,960 --> 00:45:25,240 Speaker 13: around the states that we might lose because the primary 808 00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:27,520 Speaker 13: goes weird. We're not gonna do that. It has to 809 00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:29,480 Speaker 13: be from states like Idoh.
