1
00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:16,239
Speaker 1: You are entering the freedom hunt. The Liberal Meeting is

2
00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:20,000
Speaker 1: at it again. They're deciding that they're gonna go after Trump.

3
00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:24,000
Speaker 1: On the Trump Tower Meeting, they're saying foreign interference. Trump

4
00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:26,840
Speaker 1: said it's okay. They're in full meltdown over that. We'll

5
00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:28,680
Speaker 1: get into that a much more coming up on the

6
00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:33,600
Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show. This is the Buck Sexton Show, where

7
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:36,600
Speaker 1: the mission or mission is to decode what really matters

8
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 1: with actionable intelligence. Mag no mistake, American. You're a great American. Again,

9
00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:51,600
Speaker 1: the Buck Sexton Show begins. Analysts, remember he's a great guy. No,

10
00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:55,440
Speaker 1: I think you might want to listen. I don't know.

11
00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 1: There's nothing well withth listening. If somebody call from a

12
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:04,040
Speaker 1: country Norway, we have information on your opponent, Oh, I

13
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:05,480
Speaker 1: think i'd want to hear it. Do you want that

14
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:08,080
Speaker 1: kind of interference in our elections? It's not an interference.

15
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:10,520
Speaker 1: They have information. I think i'd take it. If I

16
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 1: thought there was something wrong, I'd go maybe to the

17
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 1: FBI if I thought there was something wrong. Welcome to

18
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:21,280
Speaker 1: the Buck Sexton Show. Oh man, here we go back

19
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 1: to the old bag of tricks. Here for the Democrats,

20
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:26,800
Speaker 1: for the Libs, let's talk about foreign interference in our

21
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:32,160
Speaker 1: elections again. Oh gosh, the Trump Tower meeting where no

22
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 1: information of any worth or any consequence was exchanged. They're

23
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:42,440
Speaker 1: looking for something, anything, now to revive the fortunes of

24
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:45,720
Speaker 1: the hashtag resistance after the flop of the Mulla report,

25
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 1: Muller's pathetic press conference to try to breathe new life

26
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 1: into the efforts to impeach Trump. The Democrats know that

27
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 1: impeachment comes with risks. They're trying to make it less

28
00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 1: risky by trashing Trump with the same old narratives that

29
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 1: they've used in the past, the same old nonsense. It's

30
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:13,639
Speaker 1: just ridiculous. And here they are asking the president, Oh,

31
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 1: George Stephanopolis of ABC News, little Clinton operative sitting or

32
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 1: actually standing there and get into that later, asking the

33
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,280
Speaker 1: President United States, why are you okay with that foreign interference.

34
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:27,000
Speaker 1: Let's think this through for a second, shall we. You're

35
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:30,400
Speaker 1: in a presidential campaign. There's opposition research coming in all

36
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 1: over the place. People are saying all kinds of things.

37
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:35,679
Speaker 1: You're hearing rumors all over and if someone remember he

38
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:38,600
Speaker 1: wasn't president when this happened. He's just a campaign for president.

39
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 1: And someone says they've got really, really critical information about

40
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:45,720
Speaker 1: your opponent that could change the course of the the race.

41
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 1: You're gonna say, no, sorry, I don't I don't like

42
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 1: where the information is coming from. Is that realistic? Does

43
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,519
Speaker 1: anyone think that would that would really wash? That would

44
00:02:55,560 --> 00:03:01,799
Speaker 1: be the case? This is silly. What if they send

45
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 1: an email to the president. What if somebody got Trump's

46
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 1: phone number and send a text message, Hey, here's what

47
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:08,760
Speaker 1: you need to know. He opens his phone. There it is.

48
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 1: He's supposed to say, ah, my eyes, I have to

49
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 1: pretend that I forget this. I can never use this

50
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:18,239
Speaker 1: really valuable information that I have, or maybe it's not valuable.

51
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:22,920
Speaker 1: But you're supposed to what run away cry, say that

52
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 1: you never wanted to see this in the first place.

53
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 1: This is absurd. Is this is patternly absurd? Now that's

54
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 1: just on its own. This this new standard of oh,

55
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 1: maybe I've got information that proves that Hillary Clinton's a criminal,

56
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 1: but no, no, don't give that to me. It's from

57
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 1: a foreign government, and this is America. We don't do that, sir. Meanwhile,

58
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 1: the Clinton campaign sent operatives to Ukraine to try to

59
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 1: dig up dirt on Trump. But that's not even the

60
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 1: biggest effort of foreign interference. That they were engaged in.

61
00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:57,920
Speaker 1: Here's the problem for the Libs, for the Democrats. Enough

62
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 1: people have read the reports, now understand what's going on

63
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 1: that when Libs yell foreign interference, we yell back dossier.

64
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 1: Here's the fundamental problem, the fundamental question that they cannot answer.

65
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:17,039
Speaker 1: How are we supposed to pretend that they care the

66
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 1: Libs care about foreign interference at the election when officially

67
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 1: and as a matter of record, not a theory, not

68
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 1: something that you know, maybe kind of sort o, we

69
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:31,159
Speaker 1: don't know yet, as a matter of public record that

70
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 1: all sides agree on the facts about the DNC on

71
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 1: behalf of the Hillary Clinton campaign hired a law firm

72
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 1: that hired a foreign intelligence operative, a foreigner who was

73
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:51,279
Speaker 1: hired specifically because of his connections to Russians and time

74
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: working on Russia. And he went around and spoke to

75
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 1: when you could see it in the dossier, Russian government

76
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:06,919
Speaker 1: official who gave him anti Trump information, most likely disinformation.

77
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 1: And then he was used by the DNC and their

78
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:18,719
Speaker 1: law firm, Perkins Coy to launder that information, give it

79
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 1: the veneer of credibility, run with it to the American

80
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 1: journalist Cadre. The journos and give it to the FBI

81
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:31,400
Speaker 1: and the DOJ, and they ran with it and even

82
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,600
Speaker 1: took it to the fives Accord and presented it as real.

83
00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 1: Where's the real foreign influence in the election in this situation,

84
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:41,680
Speaker 1: my friends, who's really using foreigners to try to change

85
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:45,400
Speaker 1: the results of the election to try to destroy political opponents.

86
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 1: Trump's team, unbeknownst to Trump, including Maniford and Cohen and

87
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:56,360
Speaker 1: Trump Junior, sat down to have a meeting with the

88
00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,480
Speaker 1: lady who said that she had really important information from

89
00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:01,800
Speaker 1: Russia's prosecutor. Could have been information about Hillary Clinton being

90
00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:06,560
Speaker 1: a criminal, because Hillary Clinton is a criminal. What's the

91
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 1: what's the big problem this sanctimony about how, oh, it's

92
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:14,600
Speaker 1: so unpatriotic. If you're going to tell me that taking

93
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,480
Speaker 1: that meetings on patriotic, and then you're gonna mumble mumble,

94
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:24,320
Speaker 1: you know, mister rect misdirect about the dossier and the

95
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 1: role of Christopher Steele and all of his Russian subsources,

96
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:33,320
Speaker 1: including Russian government officials, in an active measures campaign against

97
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:37,280
Speaker 1: Trump and against his people. You have no credibility. You're

98
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:42,279
Speaker 1: a hack. But the media is still they're still just

99
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 1: trying to force feed this to the American people. Oh,

100
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 1: just don't ignore what we know. Just believe what we say.

101
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:51,840
Speaker 1: Just take our word for take our version of these

102
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:55,720
Speaker 1: facts as all you need to know. This is just madness.

103
00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 1: It's madness what they're doing. But Trump's arrangement syndrome forces

104
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:09,240
Speaker 1: or induces this kind of mania. Anything that they can

105
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 1: do to take down Trump, to stop him from four

106
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 1: more years, they think is justified. A lot of them,

107
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:16,680
Speaker 1: I believe, could not and I mean CNN and the

108
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 1: Washington Post and a lot of prominent Democrats cannot psychologically

109
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 1: handle four more years of Trump. They will be broken,

110
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:28,800
Speaker 1: if they have not already been broken. And so whatever

111
00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 1: they have to do to stop him they think is

112
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:36,160
Speaker 1: inherently justified. I want an answer. I want somebody who

113
00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 1: is prominent in the Democratic Party. I want some of

114
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 1: the masses of all these journals ringing around. How is

115
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:46,120
Speaker 1: the Steel dossier, with all of its Russian sources, which

116
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:52,520
Speaker 1: was successfully used against Trump, brought to the fires a court, unverified, unvetted,

117
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:58,800
Speaker 1: raw intelligence information. The DNC specifically went after somebody who

118
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:02,760
Speaker 1: had sources in Russia. How is that not foreign interference

119
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 1: in our election? A foreigner talking to foreigners, creating compromise,

120
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:11,559
Speaker 1: compromising information on Trump and running it to our own

121
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 1: intelligence community as well as all the journals that want

122
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 1: to take Trump down. How is that not for because

123
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 1: it was paid for, because he was able to convince

124
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 1: the clowns at the FBI that this was legit. That's

125
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 1: not an answer. I want an answer or else. I

126
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:30,560
Speaker 1: don't want to hear about the Trump Power meeting from

127
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 1: any of these losers ever. Again, it's meaningless. They have

128
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:38,559
Speaker 1: no standards other than Trump derangement, and that's not a standard.

129
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 1: We're just getting started here. I'll be right back. That's

130
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 1: not the right answer. If a foreign government comes to

131
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 1: you as a public official and I'll first to help

132
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,719
Speaker 1: your campaign, giving you anything of value, whether it be

133
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,959
Speaker 1: mining or information on your opponent, the right answer is snow,

134
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:58,319
Speaker 1: and I've been consistent about that. I think Chris Frey's

135
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 1: statement is to correct state, and I'm hoping some of

136
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 1: my Democratic colleagues will take more seriously the fact that

137
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 1: Christopher Still was a foreign agent paid for about the

138
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:12,640
Speaker 1: Timocratic Party. Okay, folks, here's where I gotta tell you

139
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 1: that the Lindsey Graham is wrong. I disagree with Lindsey Graham.

140
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:19,400
Speaker 1: Foreign government comes to you and says they have really

141
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:25,360
Speaker 1: important information. The right answer is no. That may sound

142
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:27,800
Speaker 1: really you know, you could pound your chest on that

143
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:29,640
Speaker 1: and say, see, look at how great we are and

144
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,880
Speaker 1: you know, keeping the American election just about Americans or whatever,

145
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:35,080
Speaker 1: which is also a whole other conversation. We've got a

146
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,520
Speaker 1: global media environment. We have an Internet that's global. There's

147
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:40,920
Speaker 1: information flowing all the time everywhere. Are we supposed to

148
00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:44,720
Speaker 1: now track down where the information comes from? Constantly? If

149
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:47,400
Speaker 1: a president sees a new story from a foreign country,

150
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:51,560
Speaker 1: a former country's news service that's a state news are

151
00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:54,600
Speaker 1: they not allowed to use that information? If? What if

152
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,560
Speaker 1: it's then picked up by other news organizations, but the

153
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,160
Speaker 1: origin of it is the state news service of some

154
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:03,040
Speaker 1: other country, They're not allowed to use that. That would

155
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 1: be a contribution in a sense, wouldn't it. This is

156
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 1: why these rules are ridiculous and this formulation is just wrong.

157
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 1: And I think, you know, look, Lindsay Graham, I think

158
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:17,719
Speaker 1: he's a I think he's an honorable guy and a

159
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:20,079
Speaker 1: well intentioned guy. I don't think he's I don't I

160
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:24,319
Speaker 1: don't think he's that wise, and I think that he's

161
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:26,240
Speaker 1: wrong on stuff. And I think he's wrong on this.

162
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:31,760
Speaker 1: Um here, here's let's play this scenario game. They keep saying, okay,

163
00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:35,079
Speaker 1: because really they create all those Russia hysteria stuff. But

164
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,080
Speaker 1: let's say it's not Russia. Let's say it's some other country.

165
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:44,200
Speaker 1: Let's say it's someone else. All right, the Russian government

166
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 1: is one thing. Let's say the French government comes forward

167
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,800
Speaker 1: and says, you know what, we've got information for you.

168
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 1: You know Hillary in the last election, you know, Hillary

169
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:58,280
Speaker 1: Clinton's husband, Bill Clinton, uh, sexually assaulted. I'm just this

170
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:01,160
Speaker 1: is a scenario. This is a hypeth edical but I'm

171
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:04,319
Speaker 1: just Hillary Clinton's husband, Bill Clinton, sexually assaulted a young

172
00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:08,320
Speaker 1: girl in France. And you know, we have real evidence

173
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:09,920
Speaker 1: that's come forward, and we you know, we have a

174
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:11,520
Speaker 1: real process. But you know, you should know that this

175
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 1: is what happened. And the French government, you know, the

176
00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:16,559
Speaker 1: minute the French Minister of remember it was the Russian

177
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 1: senior lawyer. I forget what the guy's title was, A

178
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 1: velance guy said she represented sort of the senior prosecutor. Well,

179
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:26,640
Speaker 1: what if the French minister of justice said, you know,

180
00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:29,680
Speaker 1: we've got we've got reasonably that Bill Clinton assaulted a

181
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:31,840
Speaker 1: young girl and we wanted you to know that. We

182
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:35,319
Speaker 1: think the American people should know that. Does anybody want

183
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,040
Speaker 1: to sound like a total moron and tell me, oh,

184
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 1: you can't use that information. Oh that's a that's a

185
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:46,680
Speaker 1: campaign contribution. Mc dare. This is idiocy. The moment you

186
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 1: take this standard they say they're setting up, and you

187
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 1: apply it more generally and and try to make it

188
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:56,559
Speaker 1: universally applicable, not just in this Russia collusion hysteria, it

189
00:11:56,600 --> 00:12:00,600
Speaker 1: all falls apart. And when you add to this the

190
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 1: very real prospect that Hillary Clinton may have taken a

191
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:07,599
Speaker 1: bribe or a husband may have taken a bribe from Russia.

192
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:12,199
Speaker 1: What if Vesslanskaia is like, look, here's the information. You know, Hillary,

193
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,160
Speaker 1: there was a meeting, it was arranged. Bill Clinton got

194
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 1: a check for five hundred thousand dollars from a Russian

195
00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:18,959
Speaker 1: bank to give a speech. No one gets paid a

196
00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:21,760
Speaker 1: half million dollars for a speech. This is insane. But

197
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 1: his wife was Secretary of State at the time. And

198
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,720
Speaker 1: then we had this agreement through an intermediary that Hillary

199
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:30,959
Speaker 1: was gonna, you know, de sanction the following Russians or

200
00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 1: something like that. What if that had happened that could

201
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:36,240
Speaker 1: have happened. That's not a crazy scenario at all. I mean,

202
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 1: Hillary and Bill Clinton or wildly corrupt and the media

203
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:42,199
Speaker 1: pretending they weren't is one of the greatest knocks on

204
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:45,400
Speaker 1: their credibility that you could point to. It's laughable. And

205
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 1: the Clinton Foundation is collapsing. No one cares for the

206
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:51,320
Speaker 1: Clinton Foundation anymore because it was all affront for influence

207
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:56,240
Speaker 1: peddling and access selling. Pretending to be a charity. It

208
00:12:56,320 --> 00:13:00,480
Speaker 1: was a pass through for the Clinton brand and paying

209
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:02,720
Speaker 1: for their lifestyle and paying for their private jets and

210
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:08,520
Speaker 1: essentially creating a government in exile for the Clintons. And

211
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:10,560
Speaker 1: the media acted like, oh, oh, it's just a charity,

212
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:12,800
Speaker 1: there's nothing wrong. You're nothing wrong that's going on at all.

213
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:20,040
Speaker 1: Absolute nonsense, total and complete nonsense. But let's say that

214
00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:24,080
Speaker 1: there was information that there was a real quid pro quo,

215
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,719
Speaker 1: you know what, for what corruption, and the Russians had

216
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:29,920
Speaker 1: it and they were going to give it to Trump.

217
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:33,720
Speaker 1: You could say, well, buck, he has to take it

218
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,880
Speaker 1: to the FBI. Okay, But is he still not allowed

219
00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:40,160
Speaker 1: to use the information? Does he have to wait to

220
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,440
Speaker 1: see if the FBI decides to bring charges or not.

221
00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:48,840
Speaker 1: This opposition research. This is well, you know, what's fair

222
00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:51,199
Speaker 1: is fair. What information you have is information you have?

223
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:55,040
Speaker 1: Are is the expectation now that if a foreign government

224
00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:58,400
Speaker 1: had information about criminal activity or corruption of a US

225
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:02,840
Speaker 1: political candidate, that the opponent of that candidate is supposed

226
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:04,600
Speaker 1: to sit on it and not say anything because it

227
00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:07,440
Speaker 1: comes from foreign source. Why if it's true, why would

228
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:11,200
Speaker 1: you do that? These rules that they're pretending to believe

229
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:16,320
Speaker 1: in don't make any sense. They don't make any sense.

230
00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:20,280
Speaker 1: You got all these DC types that want to sound like, oh,

231
00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:21,920
Speaker 1: you know, because this is an opportunity to do a

232
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:25,520
Speaker 1: lot of you know, virtue signaling about what a patriot

233
00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:27,280
Speaker 1: you are. And I'm Jelova. Oh I would never take

234
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:33,520
Speaker 1: foreign information. Yeah right, sure, people journalists taken. Okay, here's

235
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:35,280
Speaker 1: another for those who are saying, no, no, buck, you

236
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 1: don't get it, you don't take you don't take information

237
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:42,360
Speaker 1: from foreign government use it against your plut Okay, let's

238
00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:44,520
Speaker 1: say the foreign government. Let's just move around some of

239
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,480
Speaker 1: the pieces that are already on the chessboard here. So

240
00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 1: Russian government source tells an American journalist, Oh, this is

241
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:56,160
Speaker 1: kind of like the Dacier, isn't it Russian government source

242
00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 1: tells an American journalist, Hey, you know, it turns out

243
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:02,960
Speaker 1: that you know, Hill got got paid off ten million

244
00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 1: dollars in an unmarked account for her and Bill to

245
00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 1: change their stance on uranium one. I mean, just straight

246
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 1: illegal as it gets corruption, right, a straight up payoff,

247
00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:16,480
Speaker 1: tells that journalist. That journalist then contacts somebody in the

248
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 1: Trump campaign and says, yeah, I've got word from this.

249
00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,640
Speaker 1: This looks real. I've got word from this Russian source

250
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:26,640
Speaker 1: that the Russian government prosecutors saying that you know, Hillary

251
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:30,480
Speaker 1: Clinton took all this money and you know it looks real.

252
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 1: Is that campaign person? Because the information comes through an

253
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:37,560
Speaker 1: American source as an intermediary, but it's originally Russian, do

254
00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:42,400
Speaker 1: they have an obligation to not do anything with it? Oh,

255
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:44,840
Speaker 1: it's okay if it goes through a pass through. Guess what.

256
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:46,800
Speaker 1: That makes it pretty easy to get the information from

257
00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:49,640
Speaker 1: any foreign government to any campaign official. Just put it

258
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:55,360
Speaker 1: through a journalist as it pass through. This is ridiculous.

259
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:59,400
Speaker 1: It does not hold together. This is all narrative. It's

260
00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:04,560
Speaker 1: all story building from the anti Trump resistance. When you

261
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:08,760
Speaker 1: poke at this, it falls apart. And if you thought

262
00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:13,480
Speaker 1: for one second that they intended to leave by their

263
00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:16,960
Speaker 1: own rules. Remember Adam Schiff, one of the most dishonest

264
00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 1: and sanctimonious of all the anti trumpers in the Congress.

265
00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:24,560
Speaker 1: Remember what happened when he had Russian comedians Vladimir Kiztsov

266
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 1: and Alexei Stolarov call him up pretending to have information.

267
00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:33,480
Speaker 1: We have the audio. Let's listen. What did democrats do?

268
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:36,400
Speaker 1: I mean, what do they really do when they think

269
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:39,240
Speaker 1: they might get information from a foreign source that's damaging

270
00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:42,280
Speaker 1: to their political opponents? Play clip five. Oh that you

271
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:47,120
Speaker 1: work for investigation regarding Trump and Russian governments? Yes, well,

272
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:52,960
Speaker 1: else some important information about it, and that is documented

273
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,800
Speaker 1: as well in mature as you want to provide to us. Yes,

274
00:16:56,080 --> 00:17:00,200
Speaker 1: So Bussava met with Trump in New York at some

275
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:05,639
Speaker 1: point after the twenty thirteen Miss Universe pageant. Absolutely, and

276
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:12,879
Speaker 1: she got compromising materials on tramp after their short relations. Okay,

277
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:17,080
Speaker 1: and what's the nature of the compromise. Well, there were

278
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:21,879
Speaker 1: pictures of naked Trump, and so Putin was made aware

279
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:27,200
Speaker 1: of the availability of the compromising material. Yes, of course

280
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:31,639
Speaker 1: Buzza shared those materials with sub checking sub sharct shares

281
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:35,320
Speaker 1: those materials with Putin because she's a god daughter of

282
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:41,200
Speaker 1: Putin and Puttin decided to press on Trump. Does it

283
00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:44,840
Speaker 1: sound like Adam Ship's like, whoa, whoa, Hey, I don't

284
00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:47,880
Speaker 1: want any of this, compromise the word he used, their

285
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:50,119
Speaker 1: compromising information on Trump. I want to hear any of this.

286
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:52,600
Speaker 1: It's not the kind of stuff that we talk about

287
00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:54,880
Speaker 1: here or America. We don't do that stuff. We don't,

288
00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:57,080
Speaker 1: of course not. He wants to know all about it.

289
00:17:57,880 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, sure, maybe he'd call the FBI, does anything

290
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,040
Speaker 1: that he wouldn't also call the Washington Post right after

291
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:06,000
Speaker 1: that if he thought this was real, and tell them

292
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:07,399
Speaker 1: that he's got a great story for them and they

293
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:08,639
Speaker 1: just have to sort of dig a little bit or

294
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:12,399
Speaker 1: help point them in the right direction. Folks, we're not

295
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:15,040
Speaker 1: all little kids here. We know how this game in

296
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:19,440
Speaker 1: politics has played. The Democrats play it dirtier than anybody else.

297
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:22,600
Speaker 1: They play without principles, they play without honor, And so

298
00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:25,240
Speaker 1: when they turn around as they're doing today and try

299
00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:28,879
Speaker 1: to wag a finger and scold everybody on the other side,

300
00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:31,920
Speaker 1: the Republicans and Trump for not playing according to their

301
00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:36,879
Speaker 1: own constantly changing and murky and bizarre rules, you know

302
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:41,800
Speaker 1: what we should do, ignore them because they're full of it.

303
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:46,280
Speaker 1: Some also defending the president as well, including Senator Tom

304
00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 1: kill Us of North Carolina, instead making it pointing it

305
00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:52,879
Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton and her effort to try to get dirt

306
00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:56,480
Speaker 1: on the Russia and the Trump campaign by hiring the

307
00:18:56,480 --> 00:19:00,520
Speaker 1: opposition research firm Fusion GPS, which of course attracted with

308
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:04,040
Speaker 1: Christopher Steele, the former British agent, to try to look

309
00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:07,359
Speaker 1: into potential ties between the Trump campaign and Russia. But

310
00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:13,080
Speaker 1: those two situations not entirely synonymous. Get potested emails and

311
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:16,800
Speaker 1: leak those out those that's much different than what was

312
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:20,080
Speaker 1: happening with the Steel situation with the Steele dossier. But nevertheless,

313
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:22,560
Speaker 1: you're hearing Republicans make that case as a lot of

314
00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:24,959
Speaker 1: them trying to defend what the president is doing. Right.

315
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:28,480
Speaker 1: But these two things, the dossier and what Trump is

316
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:32,920
Speaker 1: talking about here, these two things are not the same. Yeah,

317
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:39,719
Speaker 1: they're not the exact same jets, but they're pretty dark close.

318
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:43,360
Speaker 1: But this is a classic CNN thing. This is this

319
00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:45,480
Speaker 1: is what you hear over there all the time. They'll

320
00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:49,280
Speaker 1: they'll say something like it's a really profound statement, and

321
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,119
Speaker 1: when you think about it, it's one of the dumbest

322
00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:57,120
Speaker 1: things you've ever heard. Well, the dossier and what happened

323
00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:01,920
Speaker 1: here with the Trump campaign and meeting at Trump at

324
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:07,439
Speaker 1: Trump Tower. It's not the same, right, but the same

325
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:12,440
Speaker 1: principle should be involved, the same standards should be applied.

326
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:18,880
Speaker 1: I really wonder is CNN staffing itself at the most

327
00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:22,359
Speaker 1: senior levels with people who are just not all that bright,

328
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:25,639
Speaker 1: or who are so dishonest but in love with their

329
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:31,520
Speaker 1: own image and their overstuffed paychecks that they're willing to

330
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:34,919
Speaker 1: look stupid in front of smart and honest people and

331
00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:37,679
Speaker 1: not care. I don't have an answer. I don't know

332
00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:41,560
Speaker 1: which it is right now. There is no good answer

333
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:47,960
Speaker 1: to the question. Why does why do the foreign efforts

334
00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:50,640
Speaker 1: of the DNC and the Hillary Clinton campaign not get

335
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:56,840
Speaker 1: not get called foreign interference? But the Trump campaign taking

336
00:20:56,840 --> 00:21:01,200
Speaker 1: a meeting where there was no interference. That's another important

337
00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:05,720
Speaker 1: that's another important component of this. The Trump meeting was,

338
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:10,760
Speaker 1: at worst, you could say, an attempted acceptance of information

339
00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:14,720
Speaker 1: from a foreign source, attempted but without success. That's the

340
00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:17,439
Speaker 1: worst thing you could say. It had no impact on anything.

341
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:19,639
Speaker 1: The Veslant Sky meeting was a nothing, a zero, a

342
00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:26,520
Speaker 1: nothing burger. The Christopher Steel dossier, relying on a foreign

343
00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:32,560
Speaker 1: intelligence operative and foreign Russian government sources for that dossier

344
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:38,280
Speaker 1: was a remarkably effective piece of disinformation. The effects we

345
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:42,679
Speaker 1: are still living with to this day. So, on the

346
00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:45,560
Speaker 1: one hand, you have something that was effectively meaningless but

347
00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:50,359
Speaker 1: has been magnified into a huge problem, which is the

348
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:54,119
Speaker 1: Trump Tower meeting and the Trump campaign people talking to Veslandskaya.

349
00:21:55,200 --> 00:22:00,840
Speaker 1: On the other hand, you have an incredibly successful disinformation

350
00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:06,480
Speaker 1: and smear campaign using foreign sources, paying a foreigner, relying

351
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:11,639
Speaker 1: on foreign government information. But when you point this out,

352
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:16,119
Speaker 1: libs just they realize their best defenses to act like

353
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:19,400
Speaker 1: this is they're a bunch of total morons, Like they

354
00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:26,680
Speaker 1: can understand why these two things being treated incongruously, Why

355
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:36,080
Speaker 1: these two matters receiving entirely separate treatment, Why that's incredibly disturbing.

356
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,360
Speaker 1: It undermined that their whole premise, they're trying to really

357
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:42,880
Speaker 1: get this going all this may be the thing they

358
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:44,920
Speaker 1: believe that leads to impeachment right now, you know, and

359
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:46,920
Speaker 1: now they'll try this, and you know, next week it'll

360
00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:49,680
Speaker 1: be the firing of Mueller, I'm sorry, or the attempt

361
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:52,399
Speaker 1: to fire Muller by with McGann, it'll be obstruction again,

362
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 1: and the week after that it'll be They'll just keep

363
00:22:54,560 --> 00:22:56,919
Speaker 1: coming back to these and they lose on the issue,

364
00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,600
Speaker 1: they go away, they come back again, and they hope

365
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:03,119
Speaker 1: that they can break through and they'll tire out their opponents.

366
00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:05,800
Speaker 1: They'll they'll exhaust people like me and you who don't

367
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:10,280
Speaker 1: believe their bull and eventually they'll get their way. Their

368
00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:14,640
Speaker 1: plan is to just be engaged in relentless propaganda. That's

369
00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:21,280
Speaker 1: what this is, a relentless propaganda campaign. That's why when

370
00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 1: they're saying that these are different things, as though that's yeah,

371
00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:31,640
Speaker 1: of course they're different things. But the key similarity foreign

372
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:36,920
Speaker 1: information used to the benefit of a presidential campaign. That

373
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:45,159
Speaker 1: is irrefutable. That is a function of fact. So given

374
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:50,920
Speaker 1: that that is an irrefutable function of fact, why doesn't

375
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:55,159
Speaker 1: the press have to grapple with this? Why are Democrats

376
00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:57,560
Speaker 1: being asked all the time to explain this? How is

377
00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:00,760
Speaker 1: one foreign interference but the other is not? Why does

378
00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:02,440
Speaker 1: the media get so upset about one and out the other?

379
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:05,840
Speaker 1: But this is like what I told you yesterday. Bill

380
00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:08,480
Speaker 1: Clinton got a bigger check for one speech from a

381
00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:10,800
Speaker 1: Russian bank that was all tied up with oligarchs in

382
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:14,520
Speaker 1: the Russian government. He got more money from one country, Russia,

383
00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:18,199
Speaker 1: for one speech than has been spent at every Trump

384
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:22,000
Speaker 1: property combined over the course of two years by twenty

385
00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:25,760
Speaker 1: two different foreign governments. And you see peace after peace

386
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:30,080
Speaker 1: about the emolument's clause and how they're buying Trump by

387
00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:34,560
Speaker 1: spending money on burghers at his hotel, and nothing on

388
00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:38,439
Speaker 1: how Clinton was selling his wife's office. That's what he

389
00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:43,159
Speaker 1: was doing. This is extremely serious. The stark reality, the

390
00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:46,119
Speaker 1: sad truth, is that we have a president in the

391
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:51,040
Speaker 1: United States who's not playing on America's team. He is

392
00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:57,639
Speaker 1: invited yet again foreign interference in our presidential elections. He

393
00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:01,200
Speaker 1: said that and finally admitted in fact that he sees

394
00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:04,760
Speaker 1: nothing wrong with collusion, which is in fact what happens

395
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 1: when you accept information from a foreign entity. And he

396
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:11,280
Speaker 1: said in effect that he'd do it again. He sees

397
00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:15,200
Speaker 1: no problem with a president of the United States being

398
00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:19,240
Speaker 1: beholden to a foreign power, even a foreign hostile power,

399
00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:23,919
Speaker 1: as inevitably one would be if you accepted information and

400
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:29,520
Speaker 1: support from a foreign government. What a pile of bull

401
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:35,280
Speaker 1: from former Obama National security advisor Susan Rice, remember her,

402
00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:41,240
Speaker 1: Remember Susan Rice, everybody, it was a spontaneous reaction to

403
00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:47,160
Speaker 1: a video. That's what caused the death of for brave

404
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:50,159
Speaker 1: Americans that night in Benghazi, Libya. That's right, it was

405
00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:54,080
Speaker 1: a spontaneous video. Wasn't a terrorist attack? Can't use the

406
00:25:54,119 --> 00:26:00,280
Speaker 1: T word, not not you know, right before and action

407
00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:02,600
Speaker 1: is about to happen, and Obama is up on the

408
00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:04,800
Speaker 1: ballot and he says that General Motors is alive, been

409
00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:07,359
Speaker 1: Ladden is dead, and he's basically defeated al Kaya. You

410
00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:12,119
Speaker 1: can't use the T word, can't say terrorists. But Susan

411
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:15,560
Speaker 1: Rice has come back out here to spread the Democrat

412
00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:19,480
Speaker 1: talking points. It's extremely serious. A president who is not

413
00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:29,359
Speaker 1: playing on America's team. What a disgusting, unfair, ridiculous, disgraceful

414
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:35,240
Speaker 1: thing for a former senior bureaucrat to say, not playing

415
00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:37,920
Speaker 1: on America's team. Meanwhile, a lot of America seems I

416
00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:40,600
Speaker 1: think the president's doing just just a great job of

417
00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:44,720
Speaker 1: playing on our team. Yeah, I'd like to know what

418
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:49,400
Speaker 1: Susan Rice thinks about Hillary Clinton accepting for an information.

419
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:52,800
Speaker 1: I mean, this has now become you know, this has

420
00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:57,439
Speaker 1: now become a question of are people just going to

421
00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:00,720
Speaker 1: actively deny reality or not. And I think there's unfortunately

422
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:06,800
Speaker 1: a lot of them. Will this Susan Rice little monologue

423
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:08,760
Speaker 1: here about the president and not playing an America's team

424
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:12,240
Speaker 1: because he's inviting foreign interference. He didn't invite foreign interference

425
00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:13,679
Speaker 1: in our election. He just said, Look, I mean, I

426
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:15,600
Speaker 1: foubody's gonna tell me they got something. They gotta tell me.

427
00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:19,719
Speaker 1: I'm gonna talk to them. How could this even be policed?

428
00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:23,600
Speaker 1: How could this be adjudicated? Now you have others running

429
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:26,119
Speaker 1: around saying, oh, you know Mark Warner and the Senate

430
00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:30,160
Speaker 1: in Capitol Hill, Well you know we've got to make

431
00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:33,160
Speaker 1: laws to prevent this from happening. Where you can get

432
00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:37,600
Speaker 1: a thing of value information? Okay, So if you meet

433
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:40,720
Speaker 1: with a foreigner who tells you I read this really

434
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:44,800
Speaker 1: great book on US Russia relations, you should check it

435
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:46,679
Speaker 1: out too. Is that a thing of value that might

436
00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:50,440
Speaker 1: be a valuable insight? Do you have to report that? Now?

437
00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:54,760
Speaker 1: Where does this stop and start? Who makes the decisions

438
00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:58,879
Speaker 1: about what's valuable information versus what's just hearsay, what's just

439
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:04,480
Speaker 1: being passed along for no apparent or clear reason. Everyone

440
00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:10,199
Speaker 1: now is supposed to think that Natalia Vizelnetskaya in the

441
00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:14,480
Speaker 1: Trump Tower meeting was because she said that this is

442
00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:16,600
Speaker 1: part of the Russian government's you know, support for the

443
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:19,639
Speaker 1: Trump candidacy. That that was the case. Maybe she was

444
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:23,120
Speaker 1: just a whacko, or maybe she had really really important

445
00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:25,440
Speaker 1: information that would have changed the course of American history.

446
00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:29,080
Speaker 1: That was true. You know, one thing that gets skipped

447
00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:34,200
Speaker 1: skipped by with all of this is that the wiki

448
00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:38,240
Speaker 1: leagues posted information from from Podesta and the DNC accounts.

449
00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:42,320
Speaker 1: It was all true, you know, it was all real information.

450
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:47,560
Speaker 1: It wasn't disinformation. And don't we I mean, don't we

451
00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:49,480
Speaker 1: get to factor into this then you know, maybe we

452
00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:54,000
Speaker 1: should know some of this stuff. Journalists, as a matter

453
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:57,360
Speaker 1: of course, as part of their jobs, try to solicit

454
00:28:57,560 --> 00:29:00,560
Speaker 1: classified and in fact illegal information for them to have

455
00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:08,040
Speaker 1: or possess, all under this idea that they need to

456
00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:11,040
Speaker 1: inform the American public about it, and they take it

457
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,760
Speaker 1: upon themselves to decide what should and should not really

458
00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 1: be classified. And you know what, this state of America's

459
00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:22,280
Speaker 1: knowledge about what the government thinks should be secret ease

460
00:29:22,360 --> 00:29:27,560
Speaker 1: at any given time. But oh, that's right, a president

461
00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:30,320
Speaker 1: who's not playing on America's team, she says, and that's

462
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:33,320
Speaker 1: why they're they're they're waiting, you know that they're throwing

463
00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:34,880
Speaker 1: all this stuff out there, and that's what today We

464
00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:37,840
Speaker 1: know what today really was about. It's it's more than

465
00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:43,400
Speaker 1: anything else. Why Why was Stephanopolis standing? Why was that

466
00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:47,080
Speaker 1: that little smarmy smurf allowed to do in any for

467
00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:49,120
Speaker 1: the president where he's standing and looking down at him?

468
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:51,320
Speaker 1: Did the people working with the president not understand what

469
00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:54,959
Speaker 1: those optics were supposed to be. It's the President United States.

470
00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:59,840
Speaker 1: Little little Stephanopolis, little mini Stepan Stephanous should be sitting,

471
00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:02,400
Speaker 1: and I was gonna say at eye level, you know,

472
00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:04,160
Speaker 1: he should be. He should be sitting and looking across

473
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:08,680
Speaker 1: the president at about naval level, and that's how the

474
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:10,600
Speaker 1: interview should go. He shouldn't be allowed to stand and

475
00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:12,720
Speaker 1: look down at the president while he seated. That just

476
00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:15,240
Speaker 1: strikes me as bad optics. I mean, I'm sure the

477
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:17,520
Speaker 1: President obviously allowed it to happen, but I think that

478
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:20,640
Speaker 1: was a mistake. And he asked the question that's been

479
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:23,760
Speaker 1: asked so many times before. There's nothing new about this.

480
00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:25,360
Speaker 1: This is what they're gonna do there. They're gonna keep

481
00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:28,800
Speaker 1: you know, they're gonna keep cycling. Mike is saying that

482
00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:32,240
Speaker 1: if Stephanopolis sat down, he'd be out of frame one

483
00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:34,600
Speaker 1: and two. Maybe his you know, his little legs would

484
00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:36,080
Speaker 1: be dangling on the end of the chair, which is

485
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:38,280
Speaker 1: not that's not a power look for a little steff.

486
00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:41,320
Speaker 1: I've seen little Stephie. He's a little, tiny fellow. You know.

487
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,680
Speaker 1: He's also, from what I'm told, not a nice not

488
00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:46,400
Speaker 1: a nice guy, and a former Clinton operative who's allowed

489
00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:51,240
Speaker 1: to be a journalist, an objective journalist. That people still

490
00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:53,840
Speaker 1: say this stuff. I just want to laugh in their faces.

491
00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:57,560
Speaker 1: They really believe this, They think that this is that

492
00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:00,480
Speaker 1: anybody should believe this, That Stephanopolis is not playing for it.

493
00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:02,720
Speaker 1: If you think Stephanopolis is not playing for a team,

494
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:04,560
Speaker 1: you're not smart enough to vote. And I wonder if

495
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:06,680
Speaker 1: you're smart enough to really like take care of yourself

496
00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:09,800
Speaker 1: and you know, cook your own food. I mean, I

497
00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:12,880
Speaker 1: really have questions. Essentially what you're saying there, Buck, I

498
00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:15,080
Speaker 1: think is really right. That really wasn't an interview with

499
00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:18,160
Speaker 1: George Stephanopolis. It was an interview with the Clinton's. You know, Yes,

500
00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:22,360
Speaker 1: basically that's what he was. And so why do we

501
00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:24,320
Speaker 1: have to pretend like it's anything other than that? And

502
00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:26,400
Speaker 1: why would the White House go along with this? But

503
00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:29,880
Speaker 1: do we know why they allowed the strange setup of

504
00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:32,960
Speaker 1: having Papadopolis standing and looking down at the president when

505
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:34,760
Speaker 1: he's in his chair. I just thought that was such

506
00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:39,440
Speaker 1: a weird decision. Did we see any any scuttlebut about that?

507
00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:41,920
Speaker 1: I didn't see anything. But it's your I don't really

508
00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:43,600
Speaker 1: actually even think about you just said it's a really

509
00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:45,840
Speaker 1: good point. Yeah, man, Look, will you go back you

510
00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:47,560
Speaker 1: look at that video. He's like looking it's like he's

511
00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:51,200
Speaker 1: scolding the President United States, a little tiny Stephanopolis. You know.

512
00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:53,720
Speaker 1: It's like he's he's telling the President that he wants

513
00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:57,200
Speaker 1: to ride him around the office like a pony, which

514
00:31:57,200 --> 00:32:02,400
Speaker 1: he probably could. Yeah, get a little saddle, little Steffie. Hey, hey,

515
00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:06,320
Speaker 1: pay me one hundred million dollars. I'm such a good journalist. Hey,

516
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:08,880
Speaker 1: But this is what this is what they're doing, folks.

517
00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:13,520
Speaker 1: They're trying to you know, they're they're trying to create

518
00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:17,960
Speaker 1: some momentum for impeachment. And so they they put out

519
00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:21,239
Speaker 1: these different versions. They'll say different versions of really the

520
00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:24,880
Speaker 1: same thing, you know, and they want to say, oh,

521
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:27,200
Speaker 1: what gets traction, what gets people excited, what's going to

522
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,160
Speaker 1: get people fired up so that they'll go along with

523
00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:34,360
Speaker 1: our our impeachment efforts here. And uh, you know, Nancy

524
00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:38,160
Speaker 1: Pelosi is trying to you know, she's the one who's

525
00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:40,920
Speaker 1: trying to see what fits here, and because I think

526
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:44,200
Speaker 1: she knows that this is risky and her future power

527
00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:47,160
Speaker 1: and her time to Speaker of the House is at risk,

528
00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:49,120
Speaker 1: which matters to her more than anything else based on

529
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:53,520
Speaker 1: the decision making here about whether to impeach or not. First,

530
00:32:53,640 --> 00:33:00,040
Speaker 1: let's get onto Nancy's response to Trump play clibit. You

531
00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:02,480
Speaker 1: make it sound as if it could be a common thing.

532
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:06,160
Speaker 1: It is not. And what the President said last night

533
00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:10,880
Speaker 1: shows clearly, once again, over and over again that he

534
00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,560
Speaker 1: does not know the difference between right and wrong. And

535
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:15,840
Speaker 1: that's probably the nicest thing I can say about him,

536
00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:18,640
Speaker 1: because if he doesn't know the difference, it could explain

537
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 1: some of his ridiculous behavior. And now to invite further

538
00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:30,040
Speaker 1: involvement of foreign governments into our election, He's not inviting it.

539
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,120
Speaker 1: This is just not true. If what he says is

540
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:37,360
Speaker 1: so bad, can they just accurately refer to what he

541
00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:40,680
Speaker 1: said and not make crap up? Could they just do that?

542
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:45,520
Speaker 1: Is that asking too much? He wasn't saying yeah, please

543
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:48,160
Speaker 1: foreign government to the world, semi all the information you can.

544
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:50,800
Speaker 1: But Pelosi has to know that. But she also knows

545
00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:53,160
Speaker 1: that ultimately this is about the eye word, this is

546
00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:56,800
Speaker 1: about impeachment. It is all political. And because it is

547
00:33:56,880 --> 00:34:00,080
Speaker 1: so clearly political, you know that what Pelosi's going to

548
00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:03,840
Speaker 1: do is say, oh, but this is not politics at all.

549
00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:10,480
Speaker 1: This is classic Nancy gas lighting play nine. As we

550
00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:13,400
Speaker 1: go down this path to seek the truth for the

551
00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 1: American people and to hold the president accountable, it has

552
00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:22,799
Speaker 1: nothing to do with politics or any campaigns. It has

553
00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:26,400
Speaker 1: everything to do if I may excuse me answer your question,

554
00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:31,200
Speaker 1: it is everything to do with patriotism, not partisanship. What

555
00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:36,799
Speaker 1: we want to do is have a methodical approach to

556
00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:40,040
Speaker 1: the path that we are on, and this will be

557
00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:46,560
Speaker 1: included in that. And no one is above the law. Yeah, sure,

558
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:50,000
Speaker 1: who believes Nancy there? This is about getting the truth

559
00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:52,279
Speaker 1: the American people. Really, what are they going to have

560
00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:55,360
Speaker 1: Muller testify on Capitol Hill? Let's just start with that.

561
00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:57,680
Speaker 1: They want the answers to a ballet, They want the

562
00:34:57,680 --> 00:35:01,840
Speaker 1: truth to a bally that the single moost obvious witness

563
00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:04,279
Speaker 1: that they could call in this entire thing. They have

564
00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:08,000
Speaker 1: no interest in calling. Anybody want to take a stab

565
00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:10,680
Speaker 1: at how that's possible. Anyone want to try to tell

566
00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:14,080
Speaker 1: me what's going on with that one? Oh you mean

567
00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:16,480
Speaker 1: this is all political and Nancy's a joke and a liar.

568
00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:21,160
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's right. There we go, get ready for folks.

569
00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:25,000
Speaker 1: So Iran is doing some bad stuff, really bad stuff.

570
00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:26,920
Speaker 1: In fact, looks like they're going after shipping in the

571
00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:29,520
Speaker 1: Straits of Horn moves oil tankers. This could be a

572
00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:33,200
Speaker 1: big problem in the US response here. Well, we better

573
00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:37,440
Speaker 1: gauge this appropriately because once they start attacking oil tankers,

574
00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:39,960
Speaker 1: this can spile out of control real fast. We'll get

575
00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:44,439
Speaker 1: to that next. You are now entering the Freedom Hunt

576
00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:49,080
Speaker 1: Tanical Operation Center. All sensitive programs must be camps strictly

577
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:53,360
Speaker 1: need to know Team Buck is cleared and ready for

578
00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:57,720
Speaker 1: the Buck brief. It is the assessment of the United

579
00:35:57,719 --> 00:36:01,560
Speaker 1: States government that the Islamic public of Iran's responsible for

580
00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:04,840
Speaker 1: the attacks that occurred in the Gulf of Amon today.

581
00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:09,440
Speaker 1: This assessment is based on intelligence, the weapons used, the

582
00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:13,240
Speaker 1: level of expertise needed to execute the operation, recent similar

583
00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:16,200
Speaker 1: Iranian attacks on shipping, and the fact that no proxy

584
00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:19,000
Speaker 1: group operating in the area has the resources and proficiency

585
00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:24,200
Speaker 1: to act with such a high degree of sophistication. This

586
00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:27,520
Speaker 1: has been a concern for a long time that the

587
00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:33,759
Speaker 1: Iranians would escalate the fastest way they could think of,

588
00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:36,320
Speaker 1: short of a direct attacks on Israel or a major

589
00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:41,040
Speaker 1: terror attack through them on US US embassies or US personnel,

590
00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:46,680
Speaker 1: and that is to create major global instability in the

591
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:51,160
Speaker 1: oil markets through attacks on shipping in the Strait of

592
00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:54,359
Speaker 1: Horror Moves. On the Straight of Horror Moves is a

593
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:58,279
Speaker 1: place that has roughly twenty five to thirty percent of

594
00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:00,839
Speaker 1: the world some say twenty it's twenty two thirty. Let's

595
00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:05,320
Speaker 1: say close to a quarter to a third of the

596
00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:09,719
Speaker 1: world's oil supply shipped through it on any given day.

597
00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:15,520
Speaker 1: So just today, having one tanker that's a Japanese vessel

598
00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:19,560
Speaker 1: that was hit with some kind of it looks like

599
00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:25,520
Speaker 1: a c mine or perhaps a torpedo, that caused global

600
00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:28,280
Speaker 1: oil prices to rise as high as four percent today,

601
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:30,399
Speaker 1: though that went back down a little bit, but people

602
00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:35,239
Speaker 1: were concerned about a disruption in supply. Now you have

603
00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:40,080
Speaker 1: to remember last month, you know, the last month there

604
00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:43,759
Speaker 1: were four tankers attacked and the US blamed Iran for

605
00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:47,680
Speaker 1: those incidents as well, and it is just based on

606
00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:51,720
Speaker 1: the skill of these attacks, the technology and the weapons

607
00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:56,120
Speaker 1: involved that the US assessment so far is that this

608
00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:58,880
Speaker 1: is the Iranian regime. This is where we start to

609
00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:01,080
Speaker 1: have to get really concerned learned about what the future

610
00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:05,920
Speaker 1: of US policy against Iran is going to be. It

611
00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:08,680
Speaker 1: comes also at a time when you have this effort

612
00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:13,000
Speaker 1: to stop the sale of sophisticated billions of dollars of

613
00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:17,560
Speaker 1: sophisticated weapons to Saudi Arabia, which is the only regional

614
00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:22,640
Speaker 1: country that's in any kind of real position to push

615
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:27,280
Speaker 1: back on Iran. Saudis have about a seventy billion dollar

616
00:38:27,400 --> 00:38:32,279
Speaker 1: defense budget, and the Saudias because that Saudi Arabia is

617
00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:36,000
Speaker 1: not just of but in a sense the primary Sunni

618
00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:39,840
Speaker 1: majority state of the Muslim world. It's the place of

619
00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:44,360
Speaker 1: the Holy Cities of Mecca and Medina. The Saudias have

620
00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:49,640
Speaker 1: a historic and long standing animosity, you could even say

621
00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:54,839
Speaker 1: hatred perhaps of the Shia Iranian regime. And if we

622
00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:58,640
Speaker 1: want somebody to be a counterbalanced to Iran, it's gonna

623
00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:02,680
Speaker 1: have to be the Saudis. So that's why antagonizing the Sadies,

624
00:39:02,680 --> 00:39:06,400
Speaker 1: whether it's over the war in Yemen or over the

625
00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:10,480
Speaker 1: really grotesque incident. But remember he wasn't one of ours,

626
00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:12,520
Speaker 1: and they lied about that for a while. Jamaica Shogi

627
00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:14,480
Speaker 1: not a US citizen, not even a permanent resident. The

628
00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:18,080
Speaker 1: guy was here on a visa, So he's a Jamaica

629
00:39:18,120 --> 00:39:20,120
Speaker 1: Shogi is a foreign national. That doesn't mean what happened

630
00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:22,280
Speaker 1: to him was it okay, But it just means that

631
00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:25,919
Speaker 1: that's not the United States government's urgent problem to deal

632
00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:29,000
Speaker 1: with and fix. We don't change our foreign policy in

633
00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:32,640
Speaker 1: response necessarily to what a foreign country does to a

634
00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:36,480
Speaker 1: citizen of another foreign country. That's not how this works.

635
00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:42,400
Speaker 1: American citizens interests come first in these situations. But the

636
00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:45,120
Speaker 1: hitting of an oil tanker in the this is the

637
00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:47,960
Speaker 1: Gulf of Oman, but it's right in right in the

638
00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:51,120
Speaker 1: same waterway effectively, or right nearby to the Strait of Hormouse.

639
00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:55,680
Speaker 1: And this is going to set everybody on edge because

640
00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:59,520
Speaker 1: if the Iranians decide to go with the option that

641
00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:01,880
Speaker 1: has been I mean I was writing assessments at the

642
00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:06,200
Speaker 1: Blaze on this going back now eight nine years where

643
00:40:06,320 --> 00:40:08,000
Speaker 1: look at the Irani I mean I did whole I

644
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:09,680
Speaker 1: remember this and some people who watched in the real

645
00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:12,080
Speaker 1: news days know what I'm talking about at the Blaze

646
00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:15,680
Speaker 1: that I would, I would stand up and do maps

647
00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:18,440
Speaker 1: because map time with Buck was always a big, big

648
00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:20,520
Speaker 1: hit in the Blaze days, at least we thought it was.

649
00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:23,400
Speaker 1: And I'd walk through why this straight of hormones was

650
00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:26,719
Speaker 1: such an important strategic choke point. It's because of the

651
00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:29,960
Speaker 1: energy supplies that come out come out of the Gulf,

652
00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:35,560
Speaker 1: and if the Iranians decided to create not just the

653
00:40:35,719 --> 00:40:42,640
Speaker 1: disruption in supply, but the attendant ecological disaster of a

654
00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:45,600
Speaker 1: major series of strikes on it. I mean, oil tankers

655
00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:49,319
Speaker 1: are like big floating target practice. It's not hard at

656
00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:53,919
Speaker 1: all for the Iranians to take them out. And as

657
00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:59,439
Speaker 1: you know, one oil tanker getting hit, you have environmentalists

658
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:03,719
Speaker 1: concerned about species die off, and you know what it

659
00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:07,239
Speaker 1: does to ecosystems in the water for who knows how long.

660
00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:10,000
Speaker 1: What if you hit ten oil tankers, what if you

661
00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:15,000
Speaker 1: hit twenty and all that all that oil, all those losses,

662
00:41:15,400 --> 00:41:18,120
Speaker 1: What does that do to the global market? And what's

663
00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:20,600
Speaker 1: really our response? What's our retaliation when it be Now?

664
00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:23,200
Speaker 1: I hope it doesn't go to this place, but it

665
00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:27,640
Speaker 1: obviously could go to this place, and just by I

666
00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:31,080
Speaker 1: can't really show you. As talking about maps, the Gulf

667
00:41:31,080 --> 00:41:35,520
Speaker 1: of Oman is really the outflow area from the Persian Gulf,

668
00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:40,359
Speaker 1: and the Strait of Hormuz is the place where you

669
00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:45,840
Speaker 1: have this this tightening of the sort of a bottleneck

670
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:48,800
Speaker 1: effect between the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman.

671
00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:51,719
Speaker 1: So I mean this is right off the Iranian coast.

672
00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:54,799
Speaker 1: I mean, Iran is all along this waterway and can

673
00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:59,320
Speaker 1: very easily hit any number of these ships and tankers

674
00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:06,560
Speaker 1: with either marine naval weapons or ground based weapons too.

675
00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:08,520
Speaker 1: And there's not a whole lot that we can we

676
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:11,480
Speaker 1: can do about it. Now, the Iranians are saying this

677
00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:13,879
Speaker 1: is all suspicious, and then it really know, what they're

678
00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:16,239
Speaker 1: hoping is to have some level of deniability. And this

679
00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:20,520
Speaker 1: is a classic tactic in Middle East with Middle East regimes,

680
00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:23,920
Speaker 1: where we may know well and good that the Iranians

681
00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:28,640
Speaker 1: are behind this, but they are going to say that

682
00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:31,400
Speaker 1: they had nothing to do with this. This is a

683
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:36,080
Speaker 1: false flag. This is the you know, the Americans looking

684
00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:41,000
Speaker 1: for another wm D moment, trying to attack Iran with

685
00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:43,000
Speaker 1: any you know, all this is all John Bolton and

686
00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:46,880
Speaker 1: some kind of you know, some scheme, some plot that

687
00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:52,920
Speaker 1: he's put at work. You know. I also remember that

688
00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:54,960
Speaker 1: it was what a week or two I forget what

689
00:42:55,040 --> 00:42:56,960
Speaker 1: it was. It was a week or two ago when

690
00:42:56,960 --> 00:43:00,960
Speaker 1: the administration was talking about how there's an escalation in

691
00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:03,680
Speaker 1: the threat reporting coming out of this region, and there

692
00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:06,760
Speaker 1: were concerns that Iranian boats were being outfitted for attacks.

693
00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:09,200
Speaker 1: And there are all these other reports that came out

694
00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:11,160
Speaker 1: in the anti Trump newspapers about how that was all

695
00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:14,880
Speaker 1: lies and that intelligence doesn't really exist, and was it

696
00:43:14,960 --> 00:43:20,600
Speaker 1: all lies? Does that intelligence not really exist? I think

697
00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:22,680
Speaker 1: that we might want to go back and revisit who

698
00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:27,040
Speaker 1: was saying what to whom about all that. But Trump

699
00:43:27,239 --> 00:43:31,279
Speaker 1: is willing to see this through. He completely rejects the

700
00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:35,040
Speaker 1: Obama administration approach to Iran, which was appeasement, which was

701
00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:38,160
Speaker 1: trying to find some means of getting the Mullas to

702
00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:41,239
Speaker 1: like us more. Trump did not like that approach at all.

703
00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:45,320
Speaker 1: Here's what Trump says about how he deals with Iran.

704
00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:48,719
Speaker 1: Play fifteen. Ran is not the same country. When I

705
00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:52,520
Speaker 1: became president, Iran was a terror all over the world.

706
00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:55,680
Speaker 1: They had just made this horrible deal for the United States,

707
00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:59,960
Speaker 1: the Iran Nuclear o'deal, and I became president and I terminated,

708
00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:02,240
Speaker 1: did the deal and a run now is in chaos.

709
00:44:03,800 --> 00:44:08,480
Speaker 1: I still remember being on air at CNN and describing

710
00:44:09,560 --> 00:44:15,439
Speaker 1: describing the transfer of hostages for pallettes of cash as

711
00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:18,960
Speaker 1: paying a terrorist organiza or paying a terrorist regime for

712
00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:22,040
Speaker 1: hostages and having all these CNN and let's go, oh no,

713
00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:24,719
Speaker 1: this isn't. This isn't you know, it's a separate thing.

714
00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:27,200
Speaker 1: It's money that was already owed to them. I mean

715
00:44:27,239 --> 00:44:31,680
Speaker 1: the mental gymnastics these people went through because they realize

716
00:44:31,719 --> 00:44:34,480
Speaker 1: it looked really bad that the Obama administration was just

717
00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:40,560
Speaker 1: handing sending palettes of cash to the Mullahs to give

718
00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:42,680
Speaker 1: us back people the iranis never should have had at

719
00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:45,399
Speaker 1: the first place. You know, one thing that is very

720
00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:48,560
Speaker 1: true across the Middle East is you know, people see

721
00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:50,640
Speaker 1: two horses, a strong horse and a weak horse, they

722
00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:54,360
Speaker 1: go at the strong horse. Strength matters in the Middle East.

723
00:44:54,400 --> 00:44:57,560
Speaker 1: This is it's not a region where play by the rules,

724
00:44:57,760 --> 00:45:03,160
Speaker 1: fair play can cosideration for the other side is respected,

725
00:45:03,239 --> 00:45:07,320
Speaker 1: or is revered or even really considered to be necessarily

726
00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:10,320
Speaker 1: a good thing in and of itself. It's all about

727
00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:12,120
Speaker 1: who has the upper hand, and who has strength, and

728
00:45:12,160 --> 00:45:16,520
Speaker 1: who shows strength and the Obama administration constantly showed weakness

729
00:45:16,520 --> 00:45:18,279
Speaker 1: on Iran. This is why they had to have Ben

730
00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:23,040
Speaker 1: Rhodes and the other national security apparatchicks in the Obama

731
00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:27,360
Speaker 1: administration tell and effectively using their own words. Here, you know,

732
00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:30,200
Speaker 1: dumbass twenty five year old journalists in DC, you don't

733
00:45:30,200 --> 00:45:33,600
Speaker 1: know anything what they wanted them to say, so they'd

734
00:45:33,600 --> 00:45:35,759
Speaker 1: go out and say it about the Iran deal so

735
00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:40,799
Speaker 1: they could get through a deal that was not in

736
00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:43,880
Speaker 1: any way painful for Tehran and was ridiculous, and Trump

737
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:47,520
Speaker 1: recognized it as ridiculous. So now we're out of it.

738
00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:50,799
Speaker 1: The Europeans are all figuring out whether they're what they're

739
00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:53,480
Speaker 1: going to do now. But it wasn't a good deal.

740
00:45:53,480 --> 00:45:55,200
Speaker 1: It didn't deal with ballistic missiles, it didn't deal with

741
00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:58,520
Speaker 1: terrorist activity. It gave way too much relief to an

742
00:45:58,520 --> 00:46:02,520
Speaker 1: Iranian regime that just did not deserve it. And now

743
00:46:02,560 --> 00:46:04,399
Speaker 1: we're at a place where the administration's got some tough

744
00:46:04,480 --> 00:46:10,640
Speaker 1: choices to make because anything that involves US ground troops

745
00:46:10,680 --> 00:46:12,799
Speaker 1: in the Middle East now the Trump administrations to think

746
00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:18,600
Speaker 1: of it as a true last resort. And I do

747
00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:24,680
Speaker 1: not want any of the neo conservative tendencies to all

748
00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:28,080
Speaker 1: of a sudden overtake this administration, and we have we

749
00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:34,120
Speaker 1: have this premise that is made to seem normal that

750
00:46:35,160 --> 00:46:37,480
Speaker 1: if we can just get rid of the Mullah's and

751
00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:39,759
Speaker 1: maybe just take over Iron for like six months with

752
00:46:39,840 --> 00:46:41,880
Speaker 1: one hundred or a hundred ty thousand soldiers, we can

753
00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:44,879
Speaker 1: make this great country out of it. No, no, no,

754
00:46:45,200 --> 00:46:47,680
Speaker 1: We've learned that lesson in Iraq, We've learned that lesson

755
00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:50,680
Speaker 1: in Afghanistan. We are not doing that again. So then

756
00:46:50,719 --> 00:46:53,319
Speaker 1: you have to ask, well, what do we do? What

757
00:46:53,560 --> 00:47:00,279
Speaker 1: is the response? If the Iranians decide just to completely way,

758
00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:02,000
Speaker 1: it would mean the Europeans would have abandoned them the deal.

759
00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:03,880
Speaker 1: But I don't think they're going to do this because

760
00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:08,960
Speaker 1: the Iranian state, the economy is weak, their military is

761
00:47:10,200 --> 00:47:14,920
Speaker 1: good at at asymmetrical and terrorist stuff, but not a

762
00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:17,799
Speaker 1: first world power by any stretch with the in terms

763
00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:20,960
Speaker 1: of their military. So how do we get them to

764
00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:23,839
Speaker 1: behave and what are our options? General Jack Keane had

765
00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:26,840
Speaker 1: some thoughts on on this over at Fox. Here's what

766
00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:31,240
Speaker 1: he said, Place sixteen more pressure that's got to bite

767
00:47:31,239 --> 00:47:33,800
Speaker 1: more on them. They haven't changed them align aggressive behavior,

768
00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:37,200
Speaker 1: but a couple of things have happened. There's less resources

769
00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:39,600
Speaker 1: that they're providing to the proxies, and it's their proxies

770
00:47:39,600 --> 00:47:42,200
Speaker 1: who are propping up lemon on running the war in

771
00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:45,640
Speaker 1: Syria to civil war, running the war in Yemen as well.

772
00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:50,000
Speaker 1: So that already is a significant improvement over where we are,

773
00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:53,600
Speaker 1: but we got to continue to match pressure campaign to

774
00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:57,560
Speaker 1: for sure here it is absolutely critically now. I think

775
00:47:57,560 --> 00:47:59,600
Speaker 1: the General is correct, although that may not be enough

776
00:47:59,719 --> 00:48:01,279
Speaker 1: in an of itself. Yeah, we need to keep the

777
00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:03,880
Speaker 1: pressure on, Okay, but that's what we've been doing. What

778
00:48:03,960 --> 00:48:07,239
Speaker 1: if the Iranian step out of line and cross the

779
00:48:07,239 --> 00:48:11,960
Speaker 1: red line of blowing up tankers them? What air strikes?

780
00:48:13,080 --> 00:48:16,279
Speaker 1: How many air strikes for how long? And what do

781
00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:19,960
Speaker 1: we do if the Iranians then retaliate with and these

782
00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:22,000
Speaker 1: are all these are the old concerns. This is what

783
00:48:22,040 --> 00:48:25,359
Speaker 1: people have been writing reports and assessments on, stretching back

784
00:48:25,440 --> 00:48:27,759
Speaker 1: for many years, for decades in some cases. What will

785
00:48:27,800 --> 00:48:33,440
Speaker 1: Iran do when fully boxed into a corner? This may

786
00:48:33,480 --> 00:48:35,560
Speaker 1: in a sense be an indicator of how well the

787
00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:39,160
Speaker 1: Trump's strategy is working. That their behavior, you know, they're

788
00:48:39,239 --> 00:48:41,160
Speaker 1: trying to see if we'll blink. They're trying to see

789
00:48:41,200 --> 00:48:44,480
Speaker 1: if we will abandon the pressure campaign, if we'll decide

790
00:48:44,520 --> 00:48:47,640
Speaker 1: that we don't need to do what the Trump administration

791
00:48:47,680 --> 00:48:50,839
Speaker 1: has been doing. Essentially, people will get scared and say,

792
00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:52,759
Speaker 1: oh gosh, we don't want to We don't want a

793
00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:55,000
Speaker 1: hot war with Iran, so we better be the ones.

794
00:48:55,040 --> 00:48:58,080
Speaker 1: America needs to be the one to back off. I

795
00:48:58,080 --> 00:49:01,680
Speaker 1: think that would be a major mistake. I think that

796
00:49:01,719 --> 00:49:06,160
Speaker 1: Iran has been a thorn in the side of America, Israel,

797
00:49:06,200 --> 00:49:07,799
Speaker 1: and the rest of the world for far too long.

798
00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:12,600
Speaker 1: The regime is an evil and illegitimate regime, and the

799
00:49:12,640 --> 00:49:15,319
Speaker 1: pressure that we have on it is warranted. And we

800
00:49:15,400 --> 00:49:17,600
Speaker 1: don't have to live in a world within Iran run

801
00:49:17,640 --> 00:49:21,239
Speaker 1: by theocratic maniacs wet. We don't have to accept that.

802
00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:25,680
Speaker 1: We've come to accept it, perhaps whether intentionally or not,

803
00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:27,880
Speaker 1: because it's been around for so long, but that doesn't

804
00:49:27,920 --> 00:49:31,239
Speaker 1: mean that we have to really accept it forever. So

805
00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:34,600
Speaker 1: tensions are very high. You'll see that headline, You'll hear

806
00:49:34,600 --> 00:49:36,399
Speaker 1: people saying that a lot. It is true right now.

807
00:49:36,920 --> 00:49:39,160
Speaker 1: But I hope that Trump stays the course because his

808
00:49:39,320 --> 00:49:42,160
Speaker 1: instincts in dealing with the Mullahs I believe are correct.

809
00:49:43,480 --> 00:49:49,959
Speaker 1: Fed's gone wild d OJ's stunning inability to prosecute its

810
00:49:50,040 --> 00:49:54,080
Speaker 1: own bad actors. This from my colleague, former colleague at

811
00:49:54,120 --> 00:49:57,520
Speaker 1: the Hill, mister John Solomon. Oh man, he loves, he

812
00:49:57,680 --> 00:49:59,719
Speaker 1: loves to poke the Deep State in the eye with

813
00:49:59,800 --> 00:50:03,480
Speaker 1: these pieces. It's really fun. Let's just get into some

814
00:50:03,560 --> 00:50:06,280
Speaker 1: of the salacious details here on the Hill dot com,

815
00:50:06,280 --> 00:50:12,000
Speaker 1: shall we. One was caught red handed engaged in nepotism, Another,

816
00:50:12,480 --> 00:50:15,720
Speaker 1: a lawyer no less, admitted to shoplifting at a Marine

817
00:50:15,719 --> 00:50:20,040
Speaker 1: Barracks store, a third leaked sealed court information to the

818
00:50:20,040 --> 00:50:24,040
Speaker 1: news media, and a fourth engaged in fraud by turning

819
00:50:24,120 --> 00:50:30,040
Speaker 1: a government garage into a personal repair shop. Four cases

820
00:50:30,360 --> 00:50:34,000
Speaker 1: all saw solve in the past month, with suspects who

821
00:50:34,040 --> 00:50:38,040
Speaker 1: cost taxpayers hundreds of thousands of dollars and significant breaches

822
00:50:38,040 --> 00:50:41,640
Speaker 1: of public trust. But these weren't your everyday purps. All

823
00:50:42,160 --> 00:50:46,880
Speaker 1: were US Department of Justice employees who are supposed to

824
00:50:46,960 --> 00:50:49,480
Speaker 1: catch other criminals while working for the FBI, the Drug

825
00:50:49,560 --> 00:50:54,840
Speaker 1: Enforcement Administration, and US attorney's offices. Instead, they broke the

826
00:50:54,960 --> 00:50:58,720
Speaker 1: law or violated the rules, and all managed to escape prosecution.

827
00:51:00,280 --> 00:51:04,040
Speaker 1: They're proven transgressions. Recent Justice Department disciplinary files tell an

828
00:51:04,120 --> 00:51:10,000
Speaker 1: undeniable story the DOJ is doing a poor job of

829
00:51:10,200 --> 00:51:15,319
Speaker 1: punishing its own. This is one of these reads where

830
00:51:16,520 --> 00:51:20,359
Speaker 1: you see that the federal bureaucracies, for all their talk

831
00:51:20,440 --> 00:51:23,720
Speaker 1: about being public servants and how they just they only exist,

832
00:51:23,760 --> 00:51:27,920
Speaker 1: they only you know, are around to do their best

833
00:51:28,000 --> 00:51:33,160
Speaker 1: for America, to help the American people. For all of

834
00:51:33,200 --> 00:51:39,040
Speaker 1: that talk, for all of that noise they make, they

835
00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:42,120
Speaker 1: think they should live by a slightly or in some cases,

836
00:51:42,520 --> 00:51:47,240
Speaker 1: very different set of standards. And this is a recurring

837
00:51:47,280 --> 00:51:49,640
Speaker 1: theme today on the show. If we have double standards,

838
00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:54,440
Speaker 1: we really have no standards, because you either punish certain

839
00:51:54,440 --> 00:51:58,600
Speaker 1: infractions a certain way because that's what's right, or you don't.

840
00:51:58,600 --> 00:52:00,680
Speaker 1: And if you don't, well then that's to change the

841
00:52:00,719 --> 00:52:09,320
Speaker 1: way people view all punishments going forward. The DOJ is

842
00:52:09,320 --> 00:52:11,520
Speaker 1: a place where you know, and I also say this,

843
00:52:11,960 --> 00:52:13,680
Speaker 1: it's true, not just the DOJ, it's it's a lot

844
00:52:13,719 --> 00:52:16,520
Speaker 1: of these government agencies. You will find that if you

845
00:52:16,760 --> 00:52:20,799
Speaker 1: step out a line against the organization as one of

846
00:52:20,840 --> 00:52:24,120
Speaker 1: their own, they will find ways to crush you and

847
00:52:24,120 --> 00:52:27,520
Speaker 1: you will be punished to the maximum extent allowed by law.

848
00:52:28,280 --> 00:52:31,200
Speaker 1: But if you're just doing stuff that's embarrassing to the

849
00:52:31,320 --> 00:52:35,200
Speaker 1: organization in order to protect the organization, you know, the

850
00:52:35,920 --> 00:52:40,360
Speaker 1: DOJ and these others. They're almost like self sustaining organisms,

851
00:52:40,400 --> 00:52:44,120
Speaker 1: you know, self interested organisms. So if you come at

852
00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:49,080
Speaker 1: your home agency with whistleblowers stuff, or you do anything

853
00:52:49,120 --> 00:52:53,680
Speaker 1: like that, then you're likely to just get crushed. They will.

854
00:52:53,760 --> 00:52:56,520
Speaker 1: They will go into time and attendance fraud on you.

855
00:52:56,600 --> 00:53:00,919
Speaker 1: There's some classic stuff they do, you know, to just

856
00:53:02,080 --> 00:53:05,200
Speaker 1: make you sound like a criminal, but really there's political

857
00:53:05,360 --> 00:53:07,560
Speaker 1: or politicial reasons that they're trying to take you down.

858
00:53:08,120 --> 00:53:09,799
Speaker 1: But if you just do stuff like you know, watch

859
00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:11,719
Speaker 1: porn for twelve hours a day in your office from

860
00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:14,160
Speaker 1: your government computer, you know, maybe they'll give you a

861
00:53:14,200 --> 00:53:15,440
Speaker 1: slap on the wrist, but they don't want to make

862
00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:18,000
Speaker 1: a big deal of it because that makes the whole

863
00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:21,359
Speaker 1: agency look bad. This is stuff that really happens, by

864
00:53:21,400 --> 00:53:26,040
Speaker 1: the way, it's classic though fed's gone wild. DJ's stunning

865
00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:28,479
Speaker 1: ability to prosecute its own bad actors, and that's for sure.

866
00:53:29,320 --> 00:53:32,399
Speaker 1: Man John Solomon, that guy, he does not have any

867
00:53:32,480 --> 00:53:36,239
Speaker 1: qualms about slapping the Deep State across the face and say,

868
00:53:36,239 --> 00:53:39,600
Speaker 1: what's up, Deep State? Take that. I challenge you to

869
00:53:39,680 --> 00:53:45,200
Speaker 1: a duel. Deep States. We'll be right back Mexico's moving

870
00:53:45,280 --> 00:53:48,879
Speaker 1: six thousand troops to their southern border. That's a lot

871
00:53:48,880 --> 00:53:52,239
Speaker 1: of troops. If Mexico does a great job, then you're

872
00:53:52,239 --> 00:53:54,960
Speaker 1: not gonna have very many people coming up. If they don't,

873
00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:58,640
Speaker 1: then we have Phase two. Phase two is very tough,

874
00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:01,160
Speaker 1: but I think they're going to do a good job.

875
00:54:01,560 --> 00:54:03,640
Speaker 1: If Mexico does what they say they're going to do,

876
00:54:03,880 --> 00:54:05,560
Speaker 1: it will be a huge help to what's going on

877
00:54:05,600 --> 00:54:07,959
Speaker 1: in the border. These individuals are coming from these Northern

878
00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:10,359
Speaker 1: Triangle countries primarily, but now from all around the world,

879
00:54:10,400 --> 00:54:13,440
Speaker 1: as we've recently seen, coming to our border because they

880
00:54:13,480 --> 00:54:15,720
Speaker 1: know that because Congress has failed to fix the loopholes

881
00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:18,080
Speaker 1: and our immigration laws, that we can't detain them and

882
00:54:18,080 --> 00:54:20,120
Speaker 1: they'll be released into our country. If they can't even

883
00:54:20,200 --> 00:54:22,239
Speaker 1: get to the United States and have to remain in

884
00:54:22,280 --> 00:54:25,440
Speaker 1: Mexico or get stock stopped in Guatemala or somewhere else

885
00:54:25,480 --> 00:54:27,319
Speaker 1: in the Northern Triangle, then yes, that's going to change

886
00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:30,279
Speaker 1: the entire dynamic. It's a humanitarian crisis, it's a border

887
00:54:30,320 --> 00:54:33,880
Speaker 1: security crisis, it's a public safety crisis. Unfortunately, Congress has

888
00:54:33,880 --> 00:54:36,719
Speaker 1: failed to fix the crisis, and now as we can

889
00:54:36,719 --> 00:54:39,800
Speaker 1: see going through the reprogramming, issue efforts, and the twenty

890
00:54:39,800 --> 00:54:42,080
Speaker 1: twenty budget they propose. They're not even willing to fund

891
00:54:42,160 --> 00:54:45,280
Speaker 1: us properly to manage the crisis. So without the money

892
00:54:45,280 --> 00:54:47,800
Speaker 1: and the resources and no changes to the laws, this

893
00:54:47,920 --> 00:54:51,879
Speaker 1: crisis is not going to abate itself. That was the

894
00:54:51,960 --> 00:54:55,000
Speaker 1: ICE Deputy director on the situation at the border, and

895
00:54:55,400 --> 00:54:59,440
Speaker 1: Mexican promises to take action to help out here. Remember

896
00:54:59,480 --> 00:55:01,800
Speaker 1: what I told last week. If Trump gets a deal

897
00:55:01,880 --> 00:55:03,799
Speaker 1: in Mexico, all of a sudden is going to be

898
00:55:03,800 --> 00:55:07,000
Speaker 1: more helpful. You know what, We're gonna be told, Oh

899
00:55:07,160 --> 00:55:10,800
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. Oh, Trump didn't really get a deal.

900
00:55:11,280 --> 00:55:14,640
Speaker 1: Trump didn't get a win. Let's not get crazy. We

901
00:55:14,719 --> 00:55:18,440
Speaker 1: knew it. You knew it. I knew it. They cannot

902
00:55:18,480 --> 00:55:22,000
Speaker 1: they cannot bring themselves in the press corps. The Democrats

903
00:55:22,080 --> 00:55:27,920
Speaker 1: will not, to the point of denying clear obvious reality,

904
00:55:28,880 --> 00:55:34,279
Speaker 1: will not give credit to Trump for anything. What was

905
00:55:34,320 --> 00:55:36,800
Speaker 1: the big the big downside of his action? What was

906
00:55:36,840 --> 00:55:39,759
Speaker 1: the big problem with him saying that we were gonna

907
00:55:39,760 --> 00:55:42,320
Speaker 1: put tariffs in place and there was no big downside.

908
00:55:42,360 --> 00:55:44,040
Speaker 1: It looks like there was a pretty big upside here.

909
00:55:44,080 --> 00:55:46,000
Speaker 1: I mean when I say there was no big downside,

910
00:55:46,840 --> 00:55:49,840
Speaker 1: it managed to work. They didn't have to put the

911
00:55:49,880 --> 00:55:53,879
Speaker 1: tariffs in place. That's, you know, a negotiation where you're

912
00:55:53,960 --> 00:55:56,440
Speaker 1: not willing to take any risks. It's not a negotiation

913
00:55:56,480 --> 00:55:59,279
Speaker 1: where you're going to win very much either. This is

914
00:55:59,280 --> 00:56:03,560
Speaker 1: a very simple formulation, no risk, no reward. Trump will

915
00:56:03,600 --> 00:56:07,600
Speaker 1: take risks on policy where he thinks it's necessary. And

916
00:56:07,760 --> 00:56:11,400
Speaker 1: six thousand troops to the Mexican southern border, which is

917
00:56:11,440 --> 00:56:15,239
Speaker 1: the border with Guatemala. That could really help. Even if

918
00:56:15,280 --> 00:56:19,080
Speaker 1: Mexico stops people from getting into the United States from

919
00:56:19,120 --> 00:56:21,600
Speaker 1: Central America, then at least we don't have to worry

920
00:56:21,600 --> 00:56:24,239
Speaker 1: about the giant loophole in our law that Congress won't

921
00:56:24,280 --> 00:56:26,720
Speaker 1: fix that says if you're from a non contiguous country,

922
00:56:27,640 --> 00:56:33,000
Speaker 1: you will not be able to be immediately deported, which

923
00:56:33,040 --> 00:56:36,480
Speaker 1: is a huge, huge problem. And the scope of this

924
00:56:36,520 --> 00:56:38,960
Speaker 1: problem or filling at the place where no one can

925
00:56:39,040 --> 00:56:42,600
Speaker 1: deny that this is a massive issue, and there's a

926
00:56:42,640 --> 00:56:44,399
Speaker 1: lot of stuff that needs to be dealt with here

927
00:56:44,440 --> 00:56:50,640
Speaker 1: and fixed. But when we think more about what the

928
00:56:50,719 --> 00:56:52,279
Speaker 1: media has been willing to say about this and how

929
00:56:52,280 --> 00:56:53,759
Speaker 1: they've acted in the past, I mean, I think we've

930
00:56:53,760 --> 00:56:58,640
Speaker 1: got to understand here quite clearly that they've been lying.

931
00:56:59,320 --> 00:57:01,320
Speaker 1: They've been lying about this. I mean, here's a DHS

932
00:57:01,480 --> 00:57:05,400
Speaker 1: chief just making it, making it as straightforward as possible,

933
00:57:05,440 --> 00:57:08,839
Speaker 1: what's going on here? Play thirteen. I want to make

934
00:57:08,880 --> 00:57:11,919
Speaker 1: clear that this crisis is unlike anything we've ever seen

935
00:57:11,960 --> 00:57:15,279
Speaker 1: in our border, and it in large part is due

936
00:57:15,280 --> 00:57:17,440
Speaker 1: to the gaps in our immigration laws that are driving

937
00:57:17,600 --> 00:57:19,280
Speaker 1: Any of our men and women on the border can

938
00:57:19,320 --> 00:57:22,560
Speaker 1: tell you that DHS facilities are overflowing, that our resources

939
00:57:22,600 --> 00:57:28,360
Speaker 1: are stretched stin Yep, all of that is true. This

940
00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:32,680
Speaker 1: is a serious crisis. This is a problem that will

941
00:57:32,720 --> 00:57:36,760
Speaker 1: not solve itself. The Trump administration is taking action, is

942
00:57:36,800 --> 00:57:41,120
Speaker 1: taking pretty dramatic action, in fact, in order to make

943
00:57:41,240 --> 00:57:46,720
Speaker 1: something happen here. And if judges don't stand in the way,

944
00:57:47,320 --> 00:57:49,880
Speaker 1: I think that will be will be in a better

945
00:57:49,920 --> 00:57:52,720
Speaker 1: place pretty soon. I think the Mexican government knows that

946
00:57:52,760 --> 00:57:55,280
Speaker 1: Trump is serious about Look at the China tariffs. Oh,

947
00:57:55,320 --> 00:57:57,240
Speaker 1: he'll never do it, it's a trade war, it's a

948
00:57:57,240 --> 00:58:00,200
Speaker 1: bad idea. Oh, actually, he will do it, and he

949
00:58:00,280 --> 00:58:03,240
Speaker 1: has done it already. And this is one of the

950
00:58:03,240 --> 00:58:08,240
Speaker 1: biggest gambles on trade in the economy that any president's

951
00:58:08,240 --> 00:58:10,920
Speaker 1: taken a long time. But Trump really believes in this.

952
00:58:12,120 --> 00:58:14,400
Speaker 1: But to give you a sense of the dishonesty in

953
00:58:14,440 --> 00:58:19,520
Speaker 1: the way this issue is reported on, a representative Dan

954
00:58:19,600 --> 00:58:24,480
Speaker 1: Crenshaw has pointed to the way that Time Magazine and

955
00:58:24,600 --> 00:58:27,959
Speaker 1: The Hill, where I used to work until a week ago,

956
00:58:29,040 --> 00:58:31,400
Speaker 1: the way that they have reported on the microan crisis

957
00:58:31,440 --> 00:58:34,000
Speaker 1: recently involves things like this. The Hill tweeted out the

958
00:58:34,000 --> 00:58:39,480
Speaker 1: Trump administration is sending migrant children to the former Japanese

959
00:58:39,960 --> 00:58:47,560
Speaker 1: to a former Japanese internment camp, and this is meant

960
00:58:47,640 --> 00:58:51,280
Speaker 1: to get people to completely I think that they're aciting

961
00:58:51,280 --> 00:58:53,920
Speaker 1: the the Time report here in the Hill though, so

962
00:58:53,960 --> 00:58:57,360
Speaker 1: it's really a Time magazine report. I don't think that

963
00:58:57,400 --> 00:59:02,360
Speaker 1: this was original reporting from the Hill. And yes, the

964
00:59:02,400 --> 00:59:04,640
Speaker 1: Fort Sill this is reported by So so the Hill

965
00:59:04,720 --> 00:59:07,640
Speaker 1: is getting is getting hit here, but they're just reporting

966
00:59:07,680 --> 00:59:10,080
Speaker 1: on a report. It was Time magazine that said, oh

967
00:59:10,120 --> 00:59:14,000
Speaker 1: my gosh, Fort Sill, this is where there was the

968
00:59:14,080 --> 00:59:17,160
Speaker 1: interment of Japanese Americans, and so this is a terrible thing.

969
00:59:17,680 --> 00:59:21,560
Speaker 1: Dan Crenshaw understands that the people who are reporting on

970
00:59:21,560 --> 00:59:24,960
Speaker 1: this as such, this is a bad faith reporting job

971
00:59:25,000 --> 00:59:28,280
Speaker 1: from Time magazine. Time magazine is just a left wing

972
00:59:28,400 --> 00:59:32,640
Speaker 1: rag and I think a lot of people are surprised

973
00:59:32,640 --> 00:59:35,280
Speaker 1: that it still exists in any capacity, but it certainly does.

974
00:59:36,000 --> 00:59:40,160
Speaker 1: But here's Crenshaw on saying on Time magazine, saying that

975
00:59:40,200 --> 00:59:43,600
Speaker 1: these migrant children are being sent to the same place

976
00:59:43,800 --> 00:59:48,520
Speaker 1: as the as the intern Japanese were play fourteen. And

977
00:59:48,600 --> 00:59:52,280
Speaker 1: this is another example of the media. This was Time magazine.

978
00:59:52,320 --> 00:59:53,960
Speaker 1: I think The Hill reported this year. They have a

979
00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:57,600
Speaker 1: headline that says, you know, the administration is putting kids

980
00:59:57,840 --> 01:00:01,840
Speaker 1: where we used to put where interment for Japanese americancerning

981
01:00:01,840 --> 01:00:04,120
Speaker 1: World War To. The implication, of course, that they're going

982
01:00:04,160 --> 01:00:06,920
Speaker 1: for is that, oh, we're putting people in concentration camps.

983
01:00:06,920 --> 01:00:08,560
Speaker 1: Of course, nothing could be further from the truth. This

984
01:00:08,640 --> 01:00:11,400
Speaker 1: is a military base. We are looking for places to

985
01:00:11,480 --> 01:00:14,840
Speaker 1: house kids in a humane way. It's nonsense. It's used

986
01:00:14,840 --> 01:00:17,760
Speaker 1: for something different now. It is not a concentration camp.

987
01:00:17,800 --> 01:00:19,640
Speaker 1: It's not even close to that. They've said that they're

988
01:00:19,680 --> 01:00:21,400
Speaker 1: going to open it up to media and let people

989
01:00:21,400 --> 01:00:23,720
Speaker 1: come look at it. You can make your arguments without

990
01:00:23,760 --> 01:00:26,560
Speaker 1: being so unbelievably dishonest. But they just can't help themselves.

991
01:00:26,600 --> 01:00:29,400
Speaker 1: How are we supposed to trust members of the media

992
01:00:29,400 --> 01:00:31,120
Speaker 1: when they put out stories like this. I just can't

993
01:00:31,120 --> 01:00:34,720
Speaker 1: believe it. How are we supposed to trust them? Good,

994
01:00:34,760 --> 01:00:38,840
Speaker 1: good question, Congressman Crunshaw. We're not supposed to trust them though,

995
01:00:39,320 --> 01:00:43,400
Speaker 1: or we should not trust them. The Trump administration to

996
01:00:43,400 --> 01:00:46,080
Speaker 1: send migrant children a former Japanese internment camps. That's the

997
01:00:46,120 --> 01:00:49,760
Speaker 1: Time magazine piece. And what you find out if you

998
01:00:49,840 --> 01:00:51,720
Speaker 1: read down a little bit, is that, Oh wait, the

999
01:00:51,760 --> 01:00:56,280
Speaker 1: Health and Human Services Department under the Obama administration also

1000
01:00:56,440 --> 01:01:00,400
Speaker 1: used Fort Sill as a temporary emergency shelter for children

1001
01:01:00,440 --> 01:01:04,320
Speaker 1: attained at the border. That's right, the Obama administration send

1002
01:01:04,440 --> 01:01:06,840
Speaker 1: children to this site. Did anyone ever say in the

1003
01:01:06,880 --> 01:01:12,680
Speaker 1: media Obama sending refugee kids to same place used as

1004
01:01:12,800 --> 01:01:19,920
Speaker 1: Japanese internment camp? No, that was never Why is that, folks?

1005
01:01:20,760 --> 01:01:23,080
Speaker 1: Why did that never come up? Why was that never said?

1006
01:01:23,200 --> 01:01:25,000
Speaker 1: You know the answer. It's just fun to ask the

1007
01:01:25,080 --> 01:01:33,480
Speaker 1: question rhetorically, isn't it. No, And then you have the

1008
01:01:33,520 --> 01:01:37,080
Speaker 1: other reality that Fort Sill is a very large US

1009
01:01:37,120 --> 01:01:41,000
Speaker 1: military base and has been in continuous operation I think

1010
01:01:41,080 --> 01:01:45,480
Speaker 1: since the mid nineteenth century. So a lot of stuff

1011
01:01:45,520 --> 01:01:47,760
Speaker 1: goes on at Fort Sill. A lot of stuff happens there,

1012
01:01:47,800 --> 01:01:52,320
Speaker 1: you know. I'm I'm going to New York City this weekend.

1013
01:01:52,440 --> 01:01:53,920
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be a New York City for the weekend,

1014
01:01:53,920 --> 01:01:56,760
Speaker 1: a visit family and be with my pops for Father's Day.

1015
01:01:57,880 --> 01:02:03,320
Speaker 1: And you could describe that as, you know, buck Sexton

1016
01:02:03,680 --> 01:02:07,439
Speaker 1: going to the city stolen from Native Americans for like

1017
01:02:07,920 --> 01:02:11,000
Speaker 1: whatever was a few dozen dollars in some wampum or something.

1018
01:02:11,720 --> 01:02:13,560
Speaker 1: But that's kind of a weird way to describe it.

1019
01:02:13,600 --> 01:02:15,440
Speaker 1: Is a lot of other stuff has happened in New

1020
01:02:15,480 --> 01:02:18,880
Speaker 1: York since then, And if you describe it that way

1021
01:02:19,320 --> 01:02:22,080
Speaker 1: out of nowhere, wouldn't that tell everyone a lot about

1022
01:02:22,120 --> 01:02:25,680
Speaker 1: what you are? You know, you have some agenda, buck

1023
01:02:25,720 --> 01:02:29,400
Speaker 1: Sexton heading to stolen Indian Land for the weekend, also

1024
01:02:29,480 --> 01:02:34,240
Speaker 1: known as New York City. Okay, well, I mean, I

1025
01:02:34,240 --> 01:02:37,960
Speaker 1: guess that's technically true, but it's not really how I

1026
01:02:37,960 --> 01:02:41,320
Speaker 1: would think of things. You know, this is the absurdity

1027
01:02:41,360 --> 01:02:45,160
Speaker 1: of the media, though for them, accuracy now turns into

1028
01:02:47,080 --> 01:02:49,720
Speaker 1: any any question, who's this person? You could say, someone

1029
01:02:49,760 --> 01:02:52,800
Speaker 1: who's never been in my kitchen? Remember that from was

1030
01:02:52,800 --> 01:02:55,920
Speaker 1: it Norman Cheers? I've set it before the show? I

1031
01:02:55,960 --> 01:02:59,040
Speaker 1: forget technically true, you could say that about any number

1032
01:02:59,040 --> 01:03:00,760
Speaker 1: of people. Someone who's never been in my kitchen, but

1033
01:03:00,800 --> 01:03:03,760
Speaker 1: it doesn't really tell you much. That was him doing trebec.

1034
01:03:04,120 --> 01:03:06,880
Speaker 1: That's that's right. That was in uh jein all I

1035
01:03:06,960 --> 01:03:09,200
Speaker 1: think right, yeah, no, that was that was in uh No,

1036
01:03:09,320 --> 01:03:11,000
Speaker 1: that was on the real cheers. I think he was

1037
01:03:11,080 --> 01:03:14,240
Speaker 1: on right or no. I thought it was him when

1038
01:03:14,240 --> 01:03:17,400
Speaker 1: he was playing alc Trebec. I think it was in

1039
01:03:17,440 --> 01:03:19,280
Speaker 1: the real chair. I don't know, wasn't it. We'll track

1040
01:03:19,320 --> 01:03:21,760
Speaker 1: it down. We'll track it down. Oh, I'm speaking to

1041
01:03:21,800 --> 01:03:23,680
Speaker 1: track it down. Track us down in a second. We'll

1042
01:03:23,680 --> 01:03:27,160
Speaker 1: be right back. What is going on in the Dominican Republic.

1043
01:03:28,240 --> 01:03:30,840
Speaker 1: I've been to the DR a few times when I

1044
01:03:30,880 --> 01:03:33,040
Speaker 1: was very young. I barely remember it. I went with

1045
01:03:33,040 --> 01:03:35,760
Speaker 1: my family. I think I went once or twice. Maybe

1046
01:03:35,760 --> 01:03:39,120
Speaker 1: it was twice. Uh And it's getting all of this

1047
01:03:39,160 --> 01:03:42,200
Speaker 1: attention for all the wrong reasons these days. This is

1048
01:03:42,360 --> 01:03:46,600
Speaker 1: Fox News today is in the spotlight because there have

1049
01:03:46,680 --> 01:03:50,720
Speaker 1: been a series of deaths. For this year two last year,

1050
01:03:50,760 --> 01:03:56,400
Speaker 1: at least six American tourists have died on vacation in

1051
01:03:56,440 --> 01:04:01,760
Speaker 1: the Dominican Republic, and some of them in really suspicious

1052
01:04:01,760 --> 01:04:07,280
Speaker 1: and weird circumstances. Here, you had David Harrison, forty five

1053
01:04:07,320 --> 01:04:09,600
Speaker 1: of Merrill. This was last summer checks in the hard

1054
01:04:09,680 --> 01:04:12,440
Speaker 1: Rock Hotel and Casino in Punta Kana. He and his

1055
01:04:12,440 --> 01:04:14,160
Speaker 1: wife are there at the twelve year old son for

1056
01:04:14,200 --> 01:04:17,800
Speaker 1: several days. Harrison starts to feel ill. The next day,

1057
01:04:17,800 --> 01:04:19,720
Speaker 1: after lying in bed still not feeling well, he decides

1058
01:04:19,720 --> 01:04:22,400
Speaker 1: to join his wife in the hotel casino. He notices

1059
01:04:22,400 --> 01:04:25,360
Speaker 1: a strange smell. Very spoke. Oh sorry. The wife notices

1060
01:04:25,360 --> 01:04:28,480
Speaker 1: a strange smell coming from her husband. He begins to

1061
01:04:28,520 --> 01:04:30,480
Speaker 1: feel ill, returns to the room. She calls for an

1062
01:04:30,520 --> 01:04:35,000
Speaker 1: ambulance and he dies. Well. They say he had a

1063
01:04:35,040 --> 01:04:37,840
Speaker 1: heart attack. But her husband was very fit, very healthy person,

1064
01:04:38,720 --> 01:04:41,840
Speaker 1: and a bunch of these, a bunch of people Americans

1065
01:04:41,840 --> 01:04:46,000
Speaker 1: have all died of these same causes or similar circumstances.

1066
01:04:46,000 --> 01:04:48,360
Speaker 1: They're very sketchy. Producer, Mike, do you have a theory

1067
01:04:48,440 --> 01:04:52,160
Speaker 1: on this? Have you ever been in the dr Producer?

1068
01:04:53,360 --> 01:04:56,440
Speaker 1: And I don't think I'm ever gonna go. This is

1069
01:04:56,480 --> 01:04:58,560
Speaker 1: not making me want to sign up, I've got to say.

1070
01:04:58,600 --> 01:05:00,320
Speaker 1: And I feel bad because it's one of these countries

1071
01:05:00,320 --> 01:05:04,440
Speaker 1: where about twenty percent of the entire GDP and twenty

1072
01:05:04,480 --> 01:05:06,920
Speaker 1: percent of their whole economy comes from tourism. So if

1073
01:05:06,960 --> 01:05:09,880
Speaker 1: tourism starts off and you think about Aruba, which is

1074
01:05:09,880 --> 01:05:12,080
Speaker 1: a place that I've been to, which I will tell

1075
01:05:12,080 --> 01:05:15,760
Speaker 1: you is gorgeous and basically stress free vacation in terms

1076
01:05:15,800 --> 01:05:19,360
Speaker 1: of it's incredibly safe. The water is clean, there's no crime. Really,

1077
01:05:19,920 --> 01:05:24,480
Speaker 1: the doctors on the island are like Dutch trained and excellent,

1078
01:05:24,680 --> 01:05:26,920
Speaker 1: and like it's a very orderly clean place, and it's

1079
01:05:26,920 --> 01:05:29,960
Speaker 1: beautiful and like the food is great. You know, they

1080
01:05:30,040 --> 01:05:33,400
Speaker 1: lost Natalie Holloway got killed basically by this, by that psycho,

1081
01:05:33,760 --> 01:05:35,400
Speaker 1: and people didn't want to remember that. By the way,

1082
01:05:35,560 --> 01:05:37,600
Speaker 1: Gret event Sustern, I remember being in what was it

1083
01:05:37,720 --> 01:05:40,440
Speaker 1: high school or something and Gret event Suster your night,

1084
01:05:40,480 --> 01:05:43,760
Speaker 1: We've grap gate. You're Natalie Halloway. You know, every night

1085
01:05:43,800 --> 01:05:45,840
Speaker 1: it was like a Natalie Holloway update. And you know,

1086
01:05:45,840 --> 01:05:48,480
Speaker 1: the tourism dropped off after that. Dude, people didn't want

1087
01:05:48,480 --> 01:05:50,400
Speaker 1: to go. I don't blame that, this this one. That's

1088
01:05:50,400 --> 01:05:52,280
Speaker 1: this one event. And on top of everything you're mentioning

1089
01:05:52,360 --> 01:05:57,640
Speaker 1: in the drum, big Poppy got shot. Oh that's right. Yeah,

1090
01:05:57,760 --> 01:06:00,200
Speaker 1: it was about sports and they I saw the one

1091
01:06:00,200 --> 01:06:03,280
Speaker 1: they paid Yeah eight that they paid the hitmen eight

1092
01:06:03,280 --> 01:06:05,720
Speaker 1: thousand dollars. Yeah, it was like in There's like it

1093
01:06:05,760 --> 01:06:09,040
Speaker 1: was a definitely an assassination attempt on him, and he wasn't.

1094
01:06:09,160 --> 01:06:11,480
Speaker 1: I think it was an assassinate Big Poppy. I don't know, man,

1095
01:06:11,560 --> 01:06:14,160
Speaker 1: he's a lovable guy. I don't even get it. That

1096
01:06:14,160 --> 01:06:15,400
Speaker 1: takes a lot for me to say about a Red

1097
01:06:15,400 --> 01:06:17,000
Speaker 1: Sox guy. But you gotta love I was gonna say,

1098
01:06:17,000 --> 01:06:18,880
Speaker 1: I mean, you're a Philly guy and even you respect

1099
01:06:18,880 --> 01:06:21,000
Speaker 1: Big Pop and it's just crazy someone's gonna try to

1100
01:06:21,480 --> 01:06:24,320
Speaker 1: shot the guy in the back eight thousand dollars. But

1101
01:06:24,320 --> 01:06:26,120
Speaker 1: you know what's what's really scary is when you look

1102
01:06:26,120 --> 01:06:29,840
Speaker 1: at the stats for how how little it costs usually

1103
01:06:29,880 --> 01:06:33,400
Speaker 1: to pay for a hit on somebody. By the numbers,

1104
01:06:33,640 --> 01:06:36,440
Speaker 1: the lowest ever in the world, in the kind of

1105
01:06:36,480 --> 01:06:38,760
Speaker 1: open black will not open, but in the in a

1106
01:06:38,840 --> 01:06:41,840
Speaker 1: consistent black market I read was at the height of

1107
01:06:41,840 --> 01:06:45,800
Speaker 1: the violence in in Warez, the average hit, i mean,

1108
01:06:45,800 --> 01:06:49,400
Speaker 1: the average cartel hit on a person was the hitman

1109
01:06:49,520 --> 01:06:53,120
Speaker 1: was paid seventy dollars, which is just astonishing that actually

1110
01:06:53,160 --> 01:06:55,120
Speaker 1: came from a man yone Grillo in one of his books,

1111
01:06:55,160 --> 01:06:58,720
Speaker 1: I was like, Wow, seventy bucks, dude, seventy bucks. Somebody

1112
01:06:58,760 --> 01:07:01,160
Speaker 1: will walk up and just pop somebody, no, no questions asked.

1113
01:07:01,160 --> 01:07:04,120
Speaker 1: Think about that crazy world, right? I mean eight thousand

1114
01:07:04,200 --> 01:07:06,200
Speaker 1: is still I mean, first of all, who goes and

1115
01:07:06,240 --> 01:07:08,920
Speaker 1: shoot somebody that don't know under any circumstances. Eight thousand

1116
01:07:08,920 --> 01:07:11,440
Speaker 1: dollars seems like a shockingly low figure to go and

1117
01:07:11,880 --> 01:07:14,480
Speaker 1: shoot any human being in the back. But and then

1118
01:07:14,520 --> 01:07:16,800
Speaker 1: you add into that this guy's incredibly famous. You're obviously

1119
01:07:16,920 --> 01:07:18,680
Speaker 1: gonna get caught and go to prison forever. It just

1120
01:07:18,680 --> 01:07:21,240
Speaker 1: seems I don't know, man, I don't know if Big

1121
01:07:21,240 --> 01:07:23,760
Speaker 1: Poppy had some like sketchy associates or something. I haven't

1122
01:07:23,800 --> 01:07:26,880
Speaker 1: seen anything about that though, But really bad press, and

1123
01:07:27,120 --> 01:07:28,760
Speaker 1: I was looking to maybe go away for a week

1124
01:07:28,760 --> 01:07:31,000
Speaker 1: in the summer to a beach somewhere, and I feel bad.

1125
01:07:31,040 --> 01:07:34,000
Speaker 1: I think Dr Dude low on the list right now? Yes?

1126
01:07:34,360 --> 01:07:37,280
Speaker 1: Good in New Jersey much safer Jersey Shore. I don't

1127
01:07:37,280 --> 01:07:39,680
Speaker 1: know this Jersey Shore safer. I don't know. I don't know.

1128
01:07:39,760 --> 01:07:43,160
Speaker 1: Producer Mike Clain, flip maybe what's the closest what's the

1129
01:07:43,160 --> 01:07:45,400
Speaker 1: closest beach to Philly? Where do Philly people go to

1130
01:07:45,440 --> 01:07:47,640
Speaker 1: the beach. So where do we go? Yeah, South Jersey.

1131
01:07:47,680 --> 01:07:51,160
Speaker 1: Well we'll head down the Atlantic Expressway instead of making

1132
01:07:51,160 --> 01:07:54,240
Speaker 1: a left and going north, we'll go south and avalon

1133
01:07:54,320 --> 01:07:57,440
Speaker 1: Stone Harbor, Kpe. May you know, you know, you know,

1134
01:07:57,480 --> 01:08:01,680
Speaker 1: we like to call that, what's that classy? Yeah right,

1135
01:08:01,880 --> 01:08:04,520
Speaker 1: it's classy. It's how it's how we do it on

1136
01:08:04,520 --> 01:08:07,040
Speaker 1: the weekends. Now we do exactly. Yeah. Yeah, here, indeed,

1137
01:08:07,040 --> 01:08:09,040
Speaker 1: everyone's got there a little weekend getaway stuff. On the

1138
01:08:09,080 --> 01:08:12,600
Speaker 1: East Coast DC, it's all Maryland Shore pretty much. People

1139
01:08:12,640 --> 01:08:14,600
Speaker 1: gone then of course in New York it's out east,

1140
01:08:14,640 --> 01:08:16,640
Speaker 1: which is a fancy way of saying Long Island and

1141
01:08:16,720 --> 01:08:19,160
Speaker 1: the Hampton's. But you've gotta be even if you're not

1142
01:08:19,160 --> 01:08:20,800
Speaker 1: taking a helicopter, you better be ready to sitt in

1143
01:08:20,800 --> 01:08:22,600
Speaker 1: traffic for a very long time. But anyway, what's the

1144
01:08:22,640 --> 01:08:25,759
Speaker 1: next what's the next beach destination on producer Mike's radar

1145
01:08:25,880 --> 01:08:27,680
Speaker 1: that is not the Dominican Republic. Yeah, I think I'm

1146
01:08:27,680 --> 01:08:30,240
Speaker 1: gonna go actually to Kate may Um at some point

1147
01:08:30,240 --> 01:08:32,200
Speaker 1: this summer. I haven't been there in a while, so

1148
01:08:32,240 --> 01:08:34,800
Speaker 1: I have a friend who lives down there, and I

1149
01:08:34,840 --> 01:08:36,719
Speaker 1: think I'm gonna go do a little Kate may action.

1150
01:08:36,800 --> 01:08:38,879
Speaker 1: Just a question, producer, Mark, did you get the invitation

1151
01:08:38,960 --> 01:08:41,559
Speaker 1: from producer Mike to his little beach junk because I

1152
01:08:41,600 --> 01:08:43,760
Speaker 1: did not. I did not either. I'm I'm the host,

1153
01:08:43,760 --> 01:08:45,920
Speaker 1: you're the technical producer. I feel like you know we

1154
01:08:45,960 --> 01:08:49,000
Speaker 1: should be at least notified when the beach party happened. Man,

1155
01:08:49,000 --> 01:08:52,280
Speaker 1: I'll send pictures. Let it, Derek. Here we go. Now,

1156
01:08:52,600 --> 01:08:54,559
Speaker 1: now you all know what producer Mike isn't here. He's

1157
01:08:54,560 --> 01:08:58,120
Speaker 1: setting up the real the real attendees, the female attendees

1158
01:08:58,160 --> 01:09:00,800
Speaker 1: for his beach parties. That's whatever. I call out his name,

1159
01:09:00,840 --> 01:09:02,280
Speaker 1: and he's not in the studio. We know, we know

1160
01:09:02,320 --> 01:09:06,320
Speaker 1: what's actually what's actually going go it totalized, Man, No,

1161
01:09:06,479 --> 01:09:08,240
Speaker 1: k K I Actually I was trying to get down

1162
01:09:08,240 --> 01:09:10,479
Speaker 1: to DC once a long time ago, and I got stuck.

1163
01:09:10,760 --> 01:09:14,600
Speaker 1: I missed the last ferry out of Cape May, New Jersey,

1164
01:09:14,800 --> 01:09:17,320
Speaker 1: and and if you missed that ferry, and it's a

1165
01:09:17,520 --> 01:09:21,080
Speaker 1: holiday weekend, you have to drive all the way like

1166
01:09:21,320 --> 01:09:23,800
Speaker 1: up north and around and it's a total nightmare. So

1167
01:09:23,800 --> 01:09:26,080
Speaker 1: we actually ended up crashing. It's a really cute little town.

1168
01:09:26,160 --> 01:09:28,240
Speaker 1: I liked it. Yeah, it's nice, it's it's it's clean,

1169
01:09:28,360 --> 01:09:31,680
Speaker 1: it's fun, it's um you have really good restaurants, really

1170
01:09:31,720 --> 01:09:34,160
Speaker 1: clean beaches. What's the best beach you've ever been to?

1171
01:09:34,360 --> 01:09:36,280
Speaker 1: Since we're into the sort of summer season hearing people

1172
01:09:36,320 --> 01:09:38,400
Speaker 1: thinking about maybe getting away for a weekend. Best beach

1173
01:09:38,439 --> 01:09:41,120
Speaker 1: you've ever been to in the United States? In the US? Okay,

1174
01:09:41,560 --> 01:09:44,799
Speaker 1: I probably would say recently it was in San Diego

1175
01:09:45,040 --> 01:09:48,640
Speaker 1: and it was at the Hotel del and it was

1176
01:09:48,680 --> 01:09:51,200
Speaker 1: beautiful there. I'd say their beaches were really, really nice.

1177
01:09:51,520 --> 01:09:53,360
Speaker 1: San Diego's great. I don't know a a lot more people

1178
01:09:53,400 --> 01:09:56,200
Speaker 1: don't live there. Fantastic. I mean I feel like it's

1179
01:09:56,880 --> 01:09:59,080
Speaker 1: you know, you think La is so much more overcrowded.

1180
01:09:59,080 --> 01:10:01,040
Speaker 1: It feels like than Sa Diego, and the beach in

1181
01:10:01,120 --> 01:10:04,200
Speaker 1: San Diego is way better than the beach in l A. Absolutely,

1182
01:10:04,200 --> 01:10:06,640
Speaker 1: it's quiet, there's not a whole lot of people, you

1183
01:10:06,720 --> 01:10:08,800
Speaker 1: have to deal with any of the riff raft that

1184
01:10:08,800 --> 01:10:11,200
Speaker 1: you do up north. That's really a trick question, though,

1185
01:10:11,240 --> 01:10:12,720
Speaker 1: because the answer to what's the best beach in the

1186
01:10:12,800 --> 01:10:14,479
Speaker 1: United States, in my opinion, it always has to be

1187
01:10:14,520 --> 01:10:17,440
Speaker 1: something in Hawaii, but people don't think of that right away. Yeah,

1188
01:10:17,840 --> 01:10:20,280
Speaker 1: if Florida is nice, I like pomp Mark where are

1189
01:10:20,280 --> 01:10:22,559
Speaker 1: you win on this one? I mean, I haven't been

1190
01:10:22,600 --> 01:10:24,320
Speaker 1: to many beaches outside of New York, so I'm gonna

1191
01:10:24,320 --> 01:10:25,519
Speaker 1: have to go with the one that's a block from

1192
01:10:25,560 --> 01:10:28,360
Speaker 1: my house in Long Beach. Oh look what he just did, dude,

1193
01:10:28,400 --> 01:10:32,600
Speaker 1: He just bigfooted us with the beach, a beach a

1194
01:10:32,680 --> 01:10:35,439
Speaker 1: block from his house. He's like, you suckers have to

1195
01:10:35,560 --> 01:10:37,920
Speaker 1: drive or fly. I just roll out of bed and

1196
01:10:37,960 --> 01:10:40,760
Speaker 1: go to the greatest beach ever producer mark for the win.

1197
01:10:40,920 --> 01:10:43,400
Speaker 1: I gotta say, buddy, you came through there in the clutch.

1198
01:10:43,520 --> 01:10:46,320
Speaker 1: Look at that. You never become the best at anything

1199
01:10:46,360 --> 01:10:51,080
Speaker 1: by facing a mediocre opponent. The person you're really competing

1200
01:10:51,080 --> 01:10:56,200
Speaker 1: against is yourself. He waits. That's when you've learned who

1201
01:10:56,200 --> 01:10:59,639
Speaker 1: you really are. The guy you were last time isn't

1202
01:10:59,640 --> 01:11:04,400
Speaker 1: the best of you. For god, you aren't ours. I

1203
01:11:04,439 --> 01:11:07,320
Speaker 1: would just tell people, and I do tell people, just

1204
01:11:07,600 --> 01:11:11,080
Speaker 1: get out and try it. It can be super scary,

1205
01:11:11,400 --> 01:11:15,400
Speaker 1: but there's so many connections friendships that you can make

1206
01:11:15,520 --> 01:11:21,400
Speaker 1: through adapted sports. How far can you push yourself? How

1207
01:11:21,400 --> 01:11:24,000
Speaker 1: far can we set that bar for you and your teammates,

1208
01:11:24,040 --> 01:11:25,800
Speaker 1: but also for those who are coming out behind us.

1209
01:11:27,120 --> 01:11:30,519
Speaker 1: If we explore and push the limits right now, how

1210
01:11:30,600 --> 01:11:32,759
Speaker 1: much further when you put this thing and in the future,

1211
01:11:33,439 --> 01:11:35,920
Speaker 1: push your limits and bring it. You may not feel

1212
01:11:35,920 --> 01:11:40,479
Speaker 1: like you aren't like everybody else, That's okay, Keep pushing forward,

1213
01:11:40,840 --> 01:11:44,280
Speaker 1: see where the road will lead. You may not feel

1214
01:11:44,320 --> 01:11:47,040
Speaker 1: like you're perfect, so that doesn't mean you can't be

1215
01:11:47,120 --> 01:11:51,040
Speaker 1: where you want to be. That is some promotional video

1216
01:11:51,120 --> 01:11:55,880
Speaker 1: from the Warrior Games. Warrior Games are the Olympics for

1217
01:11:56,400 --> 01:12:00,120
Speaker 1: wounded and sick veterans. I want to bring on some

1218
01:12:00,120 --> 01:12:03,519
Speaker 1: folks who can tell you exactly what this organization, what

1219
01:12:03,680 --> 01:12:06,719
Speaker 1: this athletic competition is all about. By the way, June

1220
01:12:06,840 --> 01:12:09,439
Speaker 1: twenty first to thirtieth is in Tampa, is when the

1221
01:12:09,439 --> 01:12:12,479
Speaker 1: Warrior Games occur. To tell us about this, we have

1222
01:12:12,560 --> 01:12:17,040
Speaker 1: Israel Del Toro, an Air Force Senior Master Sergeant Army

1223

Speaker 1: Colonel Carrie Harball, director of the Warrior Games, and Travis Clayder,

1224
01:12:22,760 --> 01:12:26,719
Speaker 1: director of Communications for the Warrior Games. Travis Carry and Israel,

1225
01:12:26,720 --> 01:12:28,479
Speaker 1: thanks so much for joining otor to be with your

1226
01:12:28,479 --> 01:12:30,479
Speaker 1: Thanks for us here all right, So just given a

1227
01:12:30,479 --> 01:12:34,559
Speaker 1: little background, why don't we start with Carrie for a

1228
01:12:34,600 --> 01:12:36,680
Speaker 1: moment here. Carrie, just give us a little background on

1229
01:12:37,000 --> 01:12:40,320
Speaker 1: how the Warrior games came together and what this is

1230
01:12:40,320 --> 01:12:43,840
Speaker 1: all about. Sure, Warrior Games have been around now about

1231
01:12:44,760 --> 01:12:47,280
Speaker 1: almost ten years. Started off sort of as an inter

1232
01:12:47,360 --> 01:12:51,200
Speaker 1: mural activity with the Department Offense partnered with the Olympic

1233
01:12:51,240 --> 01:12:54,280
Speaker 1: Training Center out in Colorado Springs, and we joked that

1234
01:12:54,720 --> 01:12:56,680
Speaker 1: back then it was kind of, you know, white T

1235
01:12:56,840 --> 01:12:59,400
Speaker 1: shirts with our team names written in crayons on them,

1236
01:12:59,400 --> 01:13:01,599
Speaker 1: because it was wasn't much to it as we tried

1237
01:13:01,600 --> 01:13:03,559
Speaker 1: to figure out figure our way out of how to

1238
01:13:03,560 --> 01:13:06,320
Speaker 1: do a Paralympic event for our wounded warriors from all

1239
01:13:06,320 --> 01:13:09,759
Speaker 1: the service programs plus special operations where that fifth fifth

1240
01:13:09,800 --> 01:13:13,559
Speaker 1: program that the Department Offense and Congress recognize, and so

1241
01:13:14,120 --> 01:13:17,320
Speaker 1: it evolved over time, and in twenty fifteen we did

1242
01:13:17,320 --> 01:13:21,160
Speaker 1: the first iteration of a pure DoD run Warrior game

1243
01:13:21,200 --> 01:13:24,880
Speaker 1: without the Olympic Training Center's partnership, and we took that

1244
01:13:24,960 --> 01:13:26,880
Speaker 1: to a quantico in The Marine Corps were the hosts.

1245
01:13:27,240 --> 01:13:29,840
Speaker 1: Then it drifted to twenty sixteen to West Point, the

1246
01:13:29,920 --> 01:13:32,879
Speaker 1: Army were the hosts, then to Chicago in twenty seventeen

1247
01:13:32,920 --> 01:13:36,160
Speaker 1: with the Navy, twenty eighteen out in Colorado Springs with

1248
01:13:36,240 --> 01:13:38,280
Speaker 1: the Air Force, and then it was our turn the

1249
01:13:38,560 --> 01:13:42,479
Speaker 1: Special Operations Command, and we turned to our community that

1250
01:13:42,560 --> 01:13:44,880
Speaker 1: we're closest too, because our headquarters is located there at

1251
01:13:44,920 --> 01:13:47,280
Speaker 1: McDill Air Force Base in Florida, and we knew that

1252
01:13:47,320 --> 01:13:50,240
Speaker 1: we had incredibly generous community in the Tampa Bay area

1253
01:13:50,280 --> 01:13:54,120
Speaker 1: that really embraces the active duty and veteran service members

1254
01:13:54,120 --> 01:13:56,280
Speaker 1: in their families and that would be the perfect location

1255
01:13:56,400 --> 01:13:58,800
Speaker 1: for our Warrior Games twenty nineteen. And that's what we've done.

1256
01:13:58,840 --> 01:14:01,760
Speaker 1: We brought it in there. Three hundred athletes coming into town,

1257
01:14:02,160 --> 01:14:04,880
Speaker 1: two hundred US because each of the five programs bring

1258
01:14:04,880 --> 01:14:08,719
Speaker 1: in forty athlete team size, and then about one hundred

1259
01:14:08,720 --> 01:14:11,360
Speaker 1: foreign partner athletes because we've added to our games the

1260
01:14:11,360 --> 01:14:15,320
Speaker 1: foreign partners over the years, and we've got the UK, Australia, Canada,

1261
01:14:15,439 --> 01:14:18,360
Speaker 1: the Netherlands and in Denmark all coming in for this

1262
01:14:18,400 --> 01:14:22,040
Speaker 1: with about one hundred athletes total. Master Sergeant Master Sergeant

1263
01:14:22,080 --> 01:14:23,680
Speaker 1: del Toro, if I could ask you, how did you

1264
01:14:23,720 --> 01:14:26,240
Speaker 1: get involved in this? Well, I've been part of it

1265
01:14:26,280 --> 01:14:29,920
Speaker 1: since the beginning. Back in twenty ten. I was I

1266
01:14:29,920 --> 01:14:34,320
Speaker 1: had just finally re enlisted, came back in the military,

1267
01:14:34,680 --> 01:14:38,800
Speaker 1: and the Air Force had asked me where you participate

1268
01:14:38,880 --> 01:14:42,799
Speaker 1: in this? To kind of show hope for other service

1269
01:14:42,840 --> 01:14:46,920
Speaker 1: members who are injured or wounded. For the folks listening

1270
01:14:47,040 --> 01:14:50,679
Speaker 1: is Rael, what happened to you? I got hurt December

1271
01:14:50,720 --> 01:14:54,040
Speaker 1: two thousand and five. I was in an ID explosion

1272
01:14:54,560 --> 01:14:58,760
Speaker 1: at the bomb explode underneath my home v and I

1273
01:14:58,880 --> 01:15:01,800
Speaker 1: received third degree burns an eighty percent of my body,

1274
01:15:02,600 --> 01:15:08,080
Speaker 1: lost my fingers on both hands, and I have a

1275
01:15:08,160 --> 01:15:11,280
Speaker 1: sensitivity to the heat and cold now because of the

1276
01:15:11,840 --> 01:15:15,560
Speaker 1: loss of the two layer of scan that I had.

1277
01:15:16,840 --> 01:15:19,639
Speaker 1: And you were able to come back from that injury

1278
01:15:19,960 --> 01:15:23,839
Speaker 1: and that you received while in combat and re enlished

1279
01:15:23,920 --> 01:15:27,720
Speaker 1: and even competed in these athletic games. Yes, sir, So

1280
01:15:27,840 --> 01:15:31,240
Speaker 1: they gave me a fifteen percent chance to survive my injuries,

1281
01:15:31,280 --> 01:15:33,479
Speaker 1: and you know it was in coming four months and

1282
01:15:34,120 --> 01:15:36,479
Speaker 1: you know I woke up. They gave me the green diagnosis,

1283
01:15:36,600 --> 01:15:38,360
Speaker 1: you know, never walk again, restoring the rest of my

1284
01:15:38,400 --> 01:15:41,880
Speaker 1: life military crewer pretty much over and be stuck in

1285
01:15:41,880 --> 01:15:44,240
Speaker 1: the hospital for another year and a half. And two

1286
01:15:44,240 --> 01:15:46,600
Speaker 1: months after they told me that, I I left that

1287
01:15:46,680 --> 01:15:49,200
Speaker 1: hospital walking and breathing them my own end. And I

1288
01:15:49,200 --> 01:15:52,559
Speaker 1: wanted to continue to serve my country because people always

1289
01:15:52,600 --> 01:15:55,559
Speaker 1: ask me why it's like you can retire and make

1290
01:15:55,880 --> 01:15:59,080
Speaker 1: so much orange money as a retired guy. But you know,

1291
01:15:59,280 --> 01:16:01,599
Speaker 1: it's not about money. I love my job, I love

1292
01:16:01,640 --> 01:16:03,640
Speaker 1: certain my country, I love in the Air Force, I

1293
01:16:03,680 --> 01:16:07,040
Speaker 1: love being with my teammates. You know, I know plenty

1294
01:16:07,080 --> 01:16:09,479
Speaker 1: of people out there that have great paying jobs and

1295
01:16:09,479 --> 01:16:11,880
Speaker 1: they just hate their job. So why am I going

1296
01:16:11,920 --> 01:16:14,439
Speaker 1: to give up a job that I truly love? And

1297
01:16:14,520 --> 01:16:18,200
Speaker 1: so I fought and February of twenty ten, you know,

1298
01:16:18,200 --> 01:16:20,280
Speaker 1: I became the first one hundred percent disabled airman to

1299
01:16:20,320 --> 01:16:22,760
Speaker 1: ever realist in the Air Force. And since then, I've

1300
01:16:22,800 --> 01:16:27,040
Speaker 1: just been pushing myself to trying to show not only

1301
01:16:27,800 --> 01:16:30,639
Speaker 1: service members who are hurt, injured, ill, but anyone out

1302
01:16:30,680 --> 01:16:34,120
Speaker 1: there in the world that's having a bad day and saying, man,

1303
01:16:33,920 --> 01:16:36,599
Speaker 1: you can get through this. Just stay positive, believe in yourself,

1304
01:16:36,600 --> 01:16:39,320
Speaker 1: and you will overcome it. And that's what I've been

1305
01:16:39,360 --> 01:16:42,320
Speaker 1: doing since then and Israel and this is all remarkable

1306
01:16:42,400 --> 01:16:44,920
Speaker 1: off on its own and inspiring for everyone to hear.

1307
01:16:45,080 --> 01:16:49,800
Speaker 1: But you also now compete in athletic events. What's your event? Well,

1308
01:16:50,200 --> 01:16:52,400
Speaker 1: I'm not sure right now, because I think they might

1309
01:16:52,439 --> 01:16:54,840
Speaker 1: have signed me up for the Ultimate Champion, meaning I'll

1310
01:16:54,840 --> 01:16:58,080
Speaker 1: be doing like about ten events. But if not, I'll

1311
01:16:58,120 --> 01:17:04,040
Speaker 1: be still doing a lot. I'll be cycling, shooting, shot put,

1312
01:17:04,040 --> 01:17:09,560
Speaker 1: this kiss one hundred meter dash, sitting, volleyball, and powerlifting

1313
01:17:09,600 --> 01:17:13,280
Speaker 1: and rowing. Wow, I wrote a little bit in college,

1314
01:17:13,280 --> 01:17:16,519
Speaker 1: so rowing is uh, you gotta really want to do

1315
01:17:16,560 --> 01:17:18,880
Speaker 1: it to be rowing. Yeah, I'm actually pretty psychic, least

1316
01:17:18,880 --> 01:17:23,000
Speaker 1: the powerlifting because just the other day I did a

1317
01:17:23,040 --> 01:17:24,840
Speaker 1: new max had two hundred and fifty pounds on the

1318
01:17:24,880 --> 01:17:29,400
Speaker 1: bench prints. That's the most sense maybe being hurt. So

1319
01:17:29,439 --> 01:17:33,040
Speaker 1: that was pretty over milestone graduate. Congratulations on that. I

1320
01:17:33,040 --> 01:17:34,439
Speaker 1: think a lot of the guys listening like, man, I

1321
01:17:34,400 --> 01:17:37,040
Speaker 1: gotta get back to the gym, Travis. I want to

1322
01:17:37,080 --> 01:17:39,360
Speaker 1: ask you just for for everybody across the country who's

1323
01:17:39,360 --> 01:17:40,960
Speaker 1: hearing about this, A lot of them is probably the

1324
01:17:40,960 --> 01:17:44,400
Speaker 1: first time, although we have a really really large current

1325
01:17:44,439 --> 01:17:48,840
Speaker 1: and former military listenership. But the Warrior Games for those

1326
01:17:48,880 --> 01:17:51,360
Speaker 1: who want to either be a part of it by

1327
01:17:51,479 --> 01:17:55,519
Speaker 1: showing up or watching it or just supporting the Warrior

1328
01:17:55,560 --> 01:17:57,559
Speaker 1: Games and this this whole effort, what do people need

1329
01:17:57,600 --> 01:18:00,800
Speaker 1: to know? Sure, Well, like you've mentioned, the game, start

1330
01:18:00,920 --> 01:18:03,520
Speaker 1: June twenty onet and run for the next ten days.

1331
01:18:03,560 --> 01:18:05,320
Speaker 1: The biggest thing that we can ask people to do

1332
01:18:05,400 --> 01:18:07,320
Speaker 1: is come out in person if you're in the area,

1333
01:18:07,360 --> 01:18:10,000
Speaker 1: if you're visiting Tampa Bay, right, yea. So it's held

1334
01:18:10,000 --> 01:18:12,519
Speaker 1: down in Tampa Bay, it's out in the community. It's

1335
01:18:12,560 --> 01:18:14,559
Speaker 1: free and open to the public. So the best thing

1336
01:18:14,640 --> 01:18:15,600
Speaker 1: you can do if you want to come out and

1337
01:18:15,640 --> 01:18:18,920
Speaker 1: support these wounded warriors, these heroes, is come out to

1338
01:18:19,320 --> 01:18:21,800
Speaker 1: the events. Come out to the athletic events, and cheer

1339
01:18:21,880 --> 01:18:25,240
Speaker 1: them on. That's the biggest way you can show your

1340
01:18:25,240 --> 01:18:29,160
Speaker 1: support and honor these guys, these men and women. So yeah,

1341
01:18:29,200 --> 01:18:31,960
Speaker 1: if you're in the area, stop out. It's over the

1342
01:18:32,000 --> 01:18:35,920
Speaker 1: course of ten days across various venues and as DT

1343
01:18:36,160 --> 01:18:39,000
Speaker 1: was saying, a lot of different sports. So no matter

1344
01:18:39,080 --> 01:18:41,600
Speaker 1: what you're into from an athletic standpoint, or if you

1345
01:18:41,640 --> 01:18:43,479
Speaker 1: just want to come out support the military, there's something

1346
01:18:44,000 --> 01:18:46,960
Speaker 1: some amazing competition to come out and watch. If you're

01:18:47,000 --> 01:18:48,800
Speaker 1: not in the area, it's going to be live stream.

1348
01:18:48,880 --> 01:18:52,160
Speaker 1: So we're live streaming most about eighty to ninety percent

Speaker 1: of a sudden getting all this attention from the people

1367
01:19:50,800 --> 01:19:55,679
Speaker 1: who hate Trump? Well, he two weeks ago came out

1368
01:19:57,600 --> 01:20:01,120
Speaker 1: in you know he support supported impeachment. I guess there

1369
01:20:01,160 --> 01:20:03,519
Speaker 1: was no particular bill, but just in general. He said

1370
01:20:03,560 --> 01:20:07,439
Speaker 1: that the Attorney General had miss lantin American people and

1371
01:20:07,479 --> 01:20:11,680
Speaker 1: that the president had obstructed justice, and he laid out

1372
01:20:11,720 --> 01:20:15,040
Speaker 1: his reasoning in tweets and I think on Facebook as

1373
01:20:15,080 --> 01:20:19,320
Speaker 1: he does for all his positions, and that if you

1374
01:20:19,520 --> 01:20:23,439
Speaker 1: want to impeach Trump, who are immediately elevated in by

1375
01:20:23,680 --> 01:20:25,880
Speaker 1: you know, by the never trumpers and Democrats as a

1376
01:20:25,920 --> 01:20:29,560
Speaker 1: principal person and possibly even the next president of the

1377
01:20:29,640 --> 01:20:35,040
Speaker 1: United States. What exactly is you know, there's justin Amash

1378
01:20:35,200 --> 01:20:40,160
Speaker 1: is he's a libertarian, but you know he's saying that

1379
01:20:40,200 --> 01:20:44,600
Speaker 1: the presidented state should be impeached. What what is libertarian

1380
01:20:44,640 --> 01:20:46,400
Speaker 1: about that? I mean, to me, there's so much from

1381
01:20:46,479 --> 01:20:51,120
Speaker 1: the surveillance, surveillance operations, there's a lot of police state

1382
01:20:52,880 --> 01:20:55,200
Speaker 1: problems with what's going on here with the deep state

1383
01:20:55,240 --> 01:20:57,599
Speaker 1: and Trump and these people the FBI and DJ were

1384
01:20:57,600 --> 01:21:00,240
Speaker 1: clearly going after him. I where's all the outrage from

1385
01:21:00,240 --> 01:21:02,800
Speaker 1: Amash about about that? Which is? I don't think that's

1386
01:21:02,840 --> 01:21:05,160
Speaker 1: what about is him? Because that's central that he's saying

1387
01:21:05,160 --> 01:21:07,360
Speaker 1: you should be impeached. I'm like, well, look at the

1388
01:21:07,400 --> 01:21:10,360
Speaker 1: issue more holistically and is the other stuff okay? I

1389
01:21:10,400 --> 01:21:13,160
Speaker 1: just want to know where Amos stands on this. I mean,

1390
01:21:13,200 --> 01:21:15,360
Speaker 1: isn't he like mister fis US surveillance by the way,

1391
01:21:15,439 --> 01:21:17,920
Speaker 1: or he's all concerned about this stuff. Well, I don't

1392
01:21:17,960 --> 01:21:20,559
Speaker 1: think he's looking he looks at things holistically. Honestly, I

1393
01:21:20,560 --> 01:21:24,559
Speaker 1: think he's very um tunnel visioned, bill by bill things

1394
01:21:24,560 --> 01:21:26,360
Speaker 1: like that. And I just don't think I stepped back

1395
01:21:26,360 --> 01:21:29,160
Speaker 1: and say, I actually think he's a principled guy. I

1396
01:21:29,200 --> 01:21:33,600
Speaker 1: think his positions to me, like I would like to

1397
01:21:33,600 --> 01:21:36,320
Speaker 1: see Justin Amash be a judge not a politician, because

1398
01:21:36,360 --> 01:21:38,800
Speaker 1: I don't think he believes in any sort of incrementalism

1399
01:21:38,800 --> 01:21:41,559
Speaker 1: towards getting you know, moving towards the goals that he

1400
01:21:41,600 --> 01:21:45,600
Speaker 1: wants for as libertarianism goes, or anything else. So I

1401
01:21:45,680 --> 01:21:49,519
Speaker 1: do think generally as a principled guy, which makes what

1402
01:21:49,560 --> 01:21:52,000
Speaker 1: you just said more confusing to me, because clearly, as

1403
01:21:52,000 --> 01:21:55,559
Speaker 1: a libertarian, even though I've seen many libertarians abandon this,

1404
01:21:55,760 --> 01:21:58,879
Speaker 1: they're the concern of the you know, all of a sudden,

1405
01:21:59,160 --> 01:22:01,639
Speaker 1: they're less concerned at the FBI or the surveillance state

1406
01:22:01,680 --> 01:22:04,400
Speaker 1: than they used to be. But let's just say that

1407
01:22:04,880 --> 01:22:10,320
Speaker 1: having a administration using that those mecca, you know, that

1408
01:22:10,439 --> 01:22:13,800
Speaker 1: those institutions against another political campaign, seems to me to

1409
01:22:13,840 --> 01:22:17,559
Speaker 1: be a far bigger problem than the supposed obstruction of justice,

1410
01:22:17,640 --> 01:22:20,400
Speaker 1: which is well within which Trump, you know, was well

1411
01:22:20,400 --> 01:22:23,439
Speaker 1: within his powers to do, like firing, the firing his

1412
01:22:23,520 --> 01:22:27,320
Speaker 1: FBI director, et cetera. So I don't really understand that position. Um,

1413
01:22:27,479 --> 01:22:29,439
Speaker 1: but generally, I mean, I think he's been a pretty

1414
01:22:29,479 --> 01:22:32,240
Speaker 1: principled guy. So, you know, I don't really get it.

1415
01:22:33,479 --> 01:22:35,600
Speaker 1: What is he trying to accomplish? Though? Why be the

1416
01:22:35,640 --> 01:22:38,200
Speaker 1: loan Republican? Why people are now saying, who was it

1417
01:22:38,840 --> 01:22:41,920
Speaker 1: one of these guys who's who's so not conservative that

1418
01:22:41,920 --> 01:22:44,160
Speaker 1: he can go on CNN and call himself a conservative

1419
01:22:44,160 --> 01:22:47,719
Speaker 1: and CNN's okay with it. So whatever that means he's saying,

1420
01:22:48,160 --> 01:22:52,000
Speaker 1: was it Lewis Matt Lewis about Yeah? Yeah, the Daily Beast,

1421
01:22:52,320 --> 01:22:55,000
Speaker 1: which you know also known as woke dot Com, that

1422
01:22:55,560 --> 01:22:59,360
Speaker 1: Ama should consider running for president. Well, here's the thing

1423
01:22:59,760 --> 01:23:02,719
Speaker 1: that bugged me about that is that when you look

1424
01:23:02,760 --> 01:23:05,960
Speaker 1: at Amasha's views on stuff, they are way outside anything

1425
01:23:05,960 --> 01:23:09,320
Speaker 1: and never Trumper would ever kind of want to support, right, So,

1426
01:23:09,360 --> 01:23:11,719
Speaker 1: I mean, he doesn't believe in any kind of gun control,

1427
01:23:11,760 --> 01:23:15,160
Speaker 1: basically doesn't believe in any kind of like restriction environmental

1428
01:23:15,200 --> 01:23:19,160
Speaker 1: to constriction restrictions. It's just tons of stuff. He's he's

1429
01:23:19,600 --> 01:23:21,959
Speaker 1: you know, a we actually have some pretty cool positions.

1430
01:23:21,960 --> 01:23:25,200
Speaker 1: What you're telling me justin Amash is like it's like Buck,

1431
01:23:25,280 --> 01:23:29,120
Speaker 1: you can get that RPG you've always wanted. Absolutely like

1432
01:23:29,479 --> 01:23:31,760
Speaker 1: so in my so, I live in two worlds. As

1433
01:23:32,160 --> 01:23:34,000
Speaker 1: you know, as a columnist that can be all principled

1434
01:23:34,040 --> 01:23:36,360
Speaker 1: all the time and stuff like that, but I'm also

1435
01:23:36,439 --> 01:23:38,160
Speaker 1: a realist, right and you're not going to get certain

1436
01:23:38,240 --> 01:23:40,160
Speaker 1: kind of legislation. It's not going to happen. You have

1437
01:23:40,200 --> 01:23:43,400
Speaker 1: to work within a system when you're a politician. Doesn't

1438
01:23:43,400 --> 01:23:45,040
Speaker 1: mean you give up and surrender all the time, but

1439
01:23:45,040 --> 01:23:47,600
Speaker 1: you have to be realistic. And nothing he believes in

1440
01:23:47,760 --> 01:23:50,120
Speaker 1: is sort of realistic. In DC today, we are not

1441
01:23:50,160 --> 01:23:52,880
Speaker 1: in a libertarian moment. Whatever the opposite of a libertarian

1442
01:23:52,960 --> 01:23:56,920
Speaker 1: moment is, that's exactly what we're in. So um, you know,

1443
01:23:57,320 --> 01:24:00,680
Speaker 1: his positions don't work that way. So I why he

1444
01:24:00,720 --> 01:24:02,240
Speaker 1: did he do this? I don't know. Maybe he likes

1445
01:24:02,240 --> 01:24:05,360
Speaker 1: to be a contrarian. I'm not sure. Maybe he really

1446
01:24:05,360 --> 01:24:09,240
Speaker 1: believes it, that's listen, he may. The thing though, is,

1447
01:24:09,680 --> 01:24:11,840
Speaker 1: you know, we can't be surprised if someone tries to

1448
01:24:11,880 --> 01:24:15,000
Speaker 1: primary him. They act like they act like the Republicans

1449
01:24:15,000 --> 01:24:18,280
Speaker 1: are lockstepping behind Trump in some unprecedented way. No, this

1450
01:24:18,360 --> 01:24:21,520
Speaker 1: happens with every president. So there was no never Obama

1451
01:24:21,560 --> 01:24:23,800
Speaker 1: movement that didn't exist, you know what I'm saying. So

1452
01:24:23,840 --> 01:24:26,760
Speaker 1: I think this president actually has to deal with more

1453
01:24:26,800 --> 01:24:31,439
Speaker 1: internal you know, pushback than most. So I don't know. Yeah,

1454
01:24:31,479 --> 01:24:33,960
Speaker 1: it's one guy that's look at you. We got we

1455
01:24:33,960 --> 01:24:37,519
Speaker 1: got a political commist here who's ending who's ending a

1456
01:24:37,760 --> 01:24:42,599
Speaker 1: dings damon with I don't know, this is an active bravery,

1457
01:24:42,680 --> 01:24:48,559
Speaker 1: David Harsanyi. This is so much principle going on here.

1458
01:24:48,880 --> 01:24:51,639
Speaker 1: Speaking of principle, I'm gonna I'm gonna redirect this here

1459
01:24:51,640 --> 01:24:55,360
Speaker 1: for a moment. Uh. The flavor of the day is

1460
01:24:56,040 --> 01:24:58,599
Speaker 1: that Trump should have like called a five alarm fire

1461
01:24:58,720 --> 01:25:01,439
Speaker 1: and the FBI and everything else about the meeting at

1462
01:25:01,479 --> 01:25:05,320
Speaker 1: Trump Tower where nothing even really happened. And my favorite

1463
01:25:05,320 --> 01:25:08,600
Speaker 1: game of the day is ask a liberal how Christopher

1464
01:25:08,600 --> 01:25:13,559
Speaker 1: Steele a foreigner gathering information directly from Russian government sources,

1465
01:25:13,640 --> 01:25:17,280
Speaker 1: government agents, and government officials on Trump, knowing that this

1466
01:25:17,400 --> 01:25:20,040
Speaker 1: is during the campaign to hurt Trump. So you got

1467
01:25:20,040 --> 01:25:23,920
Speaker 1: a foreigner speaking to foreign government officials and then running

1468
01:25:23,960 --> 01:25:26,000
Speaker 1: that stuff back to not just the press, but also

1469
01:25:26,080 --> 01:25:29,599
Speaker 1: our own government. How is that not foreign interference the election?

1470
01:25:29,800 --> 01:25:31,920
Speaker 1: I get every time I bring this up, liberals start

1471
01:25:32,040 --> 01:25:36,240
Speaker 1: sputtering about things that are just non sequitors. It's nuts.

1472
01:25:36,320 --> 01:25:39,719
Speaker 1: The position is nuts. I saw David from right, well,

1473
01:25:39,880 --> 01:25:43,519
Speaker 1: if Trump had sent an investigator to Moscow to look

1474
01:25:43,600 --> 01:25:47,240
Speaker 1: into stuff, that would be different. Can you imagine if

1475
01:25:47,280 --> 01:25:50,919
Speaker 1: Trump had sent a staffer to Moscow during the election,

1476
01:25:51,040 --> 01:25:53,720
Speaker 1: what we would be talking about today. I mean, basically,

1477
01:25:54,080 --> 01:25:56,680
Speaker 1: a meeting that amounted to nothing in Trump Tower has

1478
01:25:56,720 --> 01:25:59,800
Speaker 1: ballooned into a giant conspiracy. If he had actually sent

1479
01:25:59,880 --> 01:26:02,360
Speaker 1: a staff or to Moscow, that would have been okay

1480
01:26:02,400 --> 01:26:05,479
Speaker 1: if he had done what Hillary did, if he had

1481
01:26:05,520 --> 01:26:07,800
Speaker 1: if he had worked through a lawyer. He like when

1482
01:26:07,800 --> 01:26:10,000
Speaker 1: he answered that question, and the other day I said, sure,

1483
01:26:10,040 --> 01:26:12,519
Speaker 1: as long as you work through a lawyer, uh and

1484
01:26:12,920 --> 01:26:15,880
Speaker 1: the and the RNC, and you get Kremlin sources to

1485
01:26:16,040 --> 01:26:19,439
Speaker 1: you know, to sift it through some you know other

1486
01:26:19,920 --> 01:26:23,439
Speaker 1: you know, uh Opo research firm, then it's okay. But

1487
01:26:23,439 --> 01:26:26,400
Speaker 1: I wouldn't take it myself. But yeah, I mean, it's ridiculous,

1488
01:26:26,479 --> 01:26:29,240
Speaker 1: it's it just strikes me. It's totally unserious. And I

1489
01:26:29,280 --> 01:26:31,439
Speaker 1: think that, But yeah, it's not even hypocrisy or what

1490
01:26:31,479 --> 01:26:33,160
Speaker 1: about is them? First of all, these people want to

1491
01:26:33,160 --> 01:26:35,040
Speaker 1: be back in power, so it's not what about is them?

1492
01:26:35,040 --> 01:26:37,040
Speaker 1: I'm talking about people who want to come back into power.

1493
01:26:37,439 --> 01:26:39,400
Speaker 1: But it's this this idea that you can have two

1494
01:26:39,400 --> 01:26:42,200
Speaker 1: sets of rules for just because you know, for both parties,

1495
01:26:42,240 --> 01:26:45,280
Speaker 1: you can't. You can't have government this way, you can't

1496
01:26:45,280 --> 01:26:46,840
Speaker 1: have a debate this way, and you can't have a

1497
01:26:46,880 --> 01:26:49,720
Speaker 1: society where there are two separate, you know, sets of

1498
01:26:49,800 --> 01:26:52,880
Speaker 1: rules for different kinds of people. Well, I think that's

1499
01:26:52,920 --> 01:26:55,280
Speaker 1: also what really gets to the heart of why so

1500
01:26:55,320 --> 01:26:57,920
Speaker 1: many people on the right are just we're I mean,

1501
01:26:58,040 --> 01:26:59,760
Speaker 1: and I put myself in this category. We're just tired

1502
01:26:59,800 --> 01:27:01,920
Speaker 1: of it. And I know there's this this you know,

1503
01:27:02,000 --> 01:27:05,439
Speaker 1: not this inexact and some are bothered by, but this

1504
01:27:05,479 --> 01:27:09,839
Speaker 1: paradigm of wartime versus peacetime conservatism in the ideological spectrum

1505
01:27:09,920 --> 01:27:11,920
Speaker 1: right now, and the and the fight between the two

1506
01:27:11,960 --> 01:27:15,599
Speaker 1: sides over what the future should look like. Every time

1507
01:27:15,640 --> 01:27:17,120
Speaker 1: I have it, I have somebody who used to be

1508
01:27:17,160 --> 01:27:19,600
Speaker 1: on the right start to tell me about Trump's obstruction,

1509
01:27:19,680 --> 01:27:22,280
Speaker 1: and then I asked them about anything Hillary related, which

1510
01:27:22,320 --> 01:27:25,880
Speaker 1: involved the same the same presidential campaign, and in fact,

1511
01:27:25,960 --> 01:27:29,800
Speaker 1: many of the same people instituting rules that are clearly

1512
01:27:29,840 --> 01:27:33,439
Speaker 1: a double standard, you know, at the DOJ, the FBI. Uh,

1513
01:27:33,600 --> 01:27:35,600
Speaker 1: they act like this is somehow not a part of

1514
01:27:35,600 --> 01:27:37,960
Speaker 1: the conversation. And I just think that's bad faith. I

1515
01:27:37,960 --> 01:27:41,679
Speaker 1: think that's just indefensible. Yeah, of course it's bad faith.

1516
01:27:41,680 --> 01:27:44,760
Speaker 1: I mean this the whole what aboutism charges bad faith?

1517
01:27:44,800 --> 01:27:47,599
Speaker 1: Of course I want to know. I want to know

1518
01:27:47,640 --> 01:27:49,439
Speaker 1: if there was hypocrisy, because I want to know what

1519
01:27:49,560 --> 01:27:51,920
Speaker 1: rules we need to be following. You can't simply can't

1520
01:27:52,120 --> 01:27:54,679
Speaker 1: do you know, just you know, throw that away because

1521
01:27:54,720 --> 01:27:58,400
Speaker 1: it's inconvenient in your argument. But um, I actually you know,

1522
01:27:58,439 --> 01:28:01,640
Speaker 1: I have I think it is shape to get you know,

1523
01:28:01,680 --> 01:28:04,040
Speaker 1: to have a rush and give you information about another candidate.

1524
01:28:04,040 --> 01:28:06,479
Speaker 1: But anyone who's been in DC for ten minutes knows

1525
01:28:06,520 --> 01:28:09,559
Speaker 1: well that there's all kinds of information being thrown around,

1526
01:28:09,560 --> 01:28:12,080
Speaker 1: and it comes from all kinds of different places. And

1527
01:28:12,800 --> 01:28:16,440
Speaker 1: in the end, Hillary was much more reliant on Russian information,

1528
01:28:16,520 --> 01:28:19,439
Speaker 1: and the media was much more reliant on information that

1529
01:28:19,520 --> 01:28:22,400
Speaker 1: came from the Kremlin through Democrats than they were through Trump.

1530
01:28:22,479 --> 01:28:27,439
Speaker 1: So how can you have this discussion and ignore ignore

1531
01:28:27,520 --> 01:28:30,160
Speaker 1: that fact Yeah, it just seems to me to be

1532
01:28:30,439 --> 01:28:33,080
Speaker 1: completely bizarre. But everyone should check out what David's up

1533
01:28:33,120 --> 01:28:36,400
Speaker 1: to at the Federalist dot com. Also follow him David

1534
01:28:36,439 --> 01:28:39,800
Speaker 1: Harsani at Twitter. He's a senior editor at The Federalist. David,

1535
01:28:39,840 --> 01:28:41,400
Speaker 1: great to have you, my friend. Thanks for making the time.

1536
01:28:41,439 --> 01:28:44,240
Speaker 1: We appreciate it anytime. Thanks for having And if you

1537
01:28:44,280 --> 01:28:46,080
Speaker 1: decide to go a Mash twenty twenty, you got to

1538
01:28:46,080 --> 01:28:48,800
Speaker 1: come break that news on this show. I might, I might.

1539
01:28:49,240 --> 01:28:52,000
Speaker 1: All right, Matt, thanks so much, team will be right back.

1540
01:28:52,120 --> 01:28:55,200
Speaker 1: Well it's real simple. Then Democrats are doing absolutely nothing

1541
01:28:55,920 --> 01:28:59,200
Speaker 1: while the Mexicans are stepping up working with the President

1542
01:28:59,439 --> 01:29:04,160
Speaker 1: to try and stop the illegal flow of immigrants coming

1543
01:29:04,280 --> 01:29:07,519
Speaker 1: into the country. Democrats in Congress for the longest time

1544
01:29:07,560 --> 01:29:10,000
Speaker 1: refuse to even acknowledge the fact there was a problem.

1545
01:29:10,360 --> 01:29:12,639
Speaker 1: Now we're starting to see them acknowledge there was a problem,

1546
01:29:12,640 --> 01:29:15,599
Speaker 1: but doing absolutely nothing to fix it, which may even

1547
01:29:15,680 --> 01:29:17,920
Speaker 1: be worse now they know there's a problem and they

1548
01:29:17,960 --> 01:29:21,280
Speaker 1: still do nothing. They're so focused on attacking this president

1549
01:29:21,479 --> 01:29:24,080
Speaker 1: and trying to beat him up because they have no message,

1550
01:29:24,080 --> 01:29:26,800
Speaker 1: they have no agenda, that they can't even look at

1551
01:29:26,800 --> 01:29:28,840
Speaker 1: the real problems we have and do anything to try

1552
01:29:28,880 --> 01:29:35,479
Speaker 1: to fix them. Sarah Huckeybee Sanders is fierce. She has

1553
01:29:35,479 --> 01:29:40,400
Speaker 1: been a stalwart in this administration. She's dealt with more

1554
01:29:40,439 --> 01:29:46,280
Speaker 1: than her fair share of Trump't arrangement syndrome afflicted lunatics.

1555
01:29:46,320 --> 01:29:51,439
Speaker 1: She has had to just stand there and take abuse

1556
01:29:51,479 --> 01:29:53,880
Speaker 1: in public while she's trying to have a meal. She's

1557
01:29:54,320 --> 01:30:01,280
Speaker 1: been really viciously ridiculed by the entertain payment industry and

1558
01:30:01,320 --> 01:30:04,520
Speaker 1: by the late night talk show hosts, and they're horrible

1559
01:30:04,520 --> 01:30:07,599
Speaker 1: to her, absolutely horrible to her. But she's stuck in there,

1560
01:30:07,960 --> 01:30:09,719
Speaker 1: and I have to say she's one of those people

1561
01:30:09,800 --> 01:30:13,840
Speaker 1: who rose to the challenge. I did not think she

1562
01:30:14,000 --> 01:30:17,200
Speaker 1: was particularly strong in the role at the beginning. She

1563
01:30:17,240 --> 01:30:20,120
Speaker 1: obviously had had work to do on her on her presentation.

1564
01:30:20,280 --> 01:30:22,840
Speaker 1: I think anybody who hasn't done that job would probably

1565
01:30:22,840 --> 01:30:24,559
Speaker 1: be in something of the same position, or if they

1566
01:30:24,640 --> 01:30:28,519
Speaker 1: unless they'd had a really extensive interaction on camera and

1567
01:30:28,560 --> 01:30:32,800
Speaker 1: with the media or in the media. But I bring

1568
01:30:32,840 --> 01:30:35,360
Speaker 1: this up because the breaking news here is at Sarah

1569
01:30:35,400 --> 01:30:39,920
Speaker 1: Huckabee Sanders is going to be leaving the White House

1570
01:30:40,000 --> 01:30:43,960
Speaker 1: at the end of the month. That just broke a

1571
01:30:43,960 --> 01:30:48,000
Speaker 1: little bit before he went on air and President Trump

1572
01:30:48,080 --> 01:30:50,559
Speaker 1: says she is going to go to her home back

1573
01:30:50,560 --> 01:30:53,400
Speaker 1: to her home state of Arkansas. He did not name

1574
01:30:53,439 --> 01:30:57,120
Speaker 1: a replacement as of yet. She's been in the Press

1575
01:30:57,120 --> 01:31:01,840
Speaker 1: secretary role since July of twenty seventeen. And look, I

1576
01:31:02,160 --> 01:31:06,400
Speaker 1: think that her departure is something of a loss for

1577
01:31:06,560 --> 01:31:14,880
Speaker 1: the administration because she was very solid and really understood.

1578
01:31:14,920 --> 01:31:17,120
Speaker 1: Which here's the thing. She knows who these punks in

1579
01:31:17,160 --> 01:31:21,040
Speaker 1: the media are, and she's not going through the Oh no,

1580
01:31:21,120 --> 01:31:24,160
Speaker 1: I actually think they're great and it's fine. No, no, no,

1581
01:31:24,200 --> 01:31:28,080
Speaker 1: she knows they're punks. She knows the media is full

1582
01:31:28,240 --> 01:31:36,400
Speaker 1: of smarmy, self indulging Acosta clones, and she put a

1583
01:31:36,479 --> 01:31:38,280
Speaker 1: Costa in his place in ways that I think we're

1584
01:31:38,280 --> 01:31:42,479
Speaker 1: particularly necessary. And I think that her adversary relationship with

1585
01:31:42,520 --> 01:31:45,920
Speaker 1: the press illuminated for the American people, which is the

1586
01:31:45,960 --> 01:31:51,240
Speaker 1: most important thing. Just how disgracefully partisan much of the

1587
01:31:51,960 --> 01:31:55,160
Speaker 1: particularly the Washington press corps. You know, we talked about

1588
01:31:55,200 --> 01:31:57,559
Speaker 1: the media, and the media has so many levels. There's

1589
01:31:57,560 --> 01:32:00,680
Speaker 1: so many different components of the news media. You of

1590
01:32:00,680 --> 01:32:04,680
Speaker 1: local news, the national level networks, the major newspapers, but

1591
01:32:04,800 --> 01:32:10,759
Speaker 1: the DC based Beltway, political Capitol Hill, White House, covery

1592
01:32:10,800 --> 01:32:15,800
Speaker 1: media is among the most self righteous, perhaps is the

1593
01:32:15,840 --> 01:32:19,920
Speaker 1: most self righteous. Feels like they're the ones that are

1594
01:32:20,320 --> 01:32:25,160
Speaker 1: truly speaking truth to power when they're overwhelmingly doing the

1595
01:32:25,200 --> 01:32:27,559
Speaker 1: opposite whenever they can, when their people are in power.

1596
01:32:27,640 --> 01:32:31,280
Speaker 1: They're coddling power, they're giving backrubs to power. But they

1597
01:32:31,280 --> 01:32:34,040
Speaker 1: still think where they're doing that they're being brave and

1598
01:32:34,080 --> 01:32:37,080
Speaker 1: they should be praised and we should all be thankful

1599
01:32:37,120 --> 01:32:39,519
Speaker 1: for the work that they're doing. They are saving us

1600
01:32:39,600 --> 01:32:43,120
Speaker 1: from a lack of understanding, saving us from the ignorance

1601
01:32:43,120 --> 01:32:45,120
Speaker 1: of the American people, or the ignorance that we would

1602
01:32:46,280 --> 01:32:49,160
Speaker 1: be awash in were it not for their efforts to

1603
01:32:49,280 --> 01:32:55,040
Speaker 1: constantly educate us. But that Press Corps Sarah Sanders through

1604
01:32:55,080 --> 01:32:59,639
Speaker 1: the occasional Haymaker at and it was fantastic. I thoroughly

1605
01:32:59,720 --> 01:33:02,639
Speaker 1: enjoy it. I think it was necessary. I think that

1606
01:33:03,200 --> 01:33:06,960
Speaker 1: she's changed the game. I've only met her once, very briefly,

1607
01:33:07,000 --> 01:33:08,840
Speaker 1: but I was interested to know that she knew my name,

1608
01:33:08,880 --> 01:33:10,360
Speaker 1: which was pretty funny. I was like, oh, well, I

1609
01:33:10,400 --> 01:33:13,000
Speaker 1: guess she knows who I am. I only met her

1610
01:33:13,040 --> 01:33:16,680
Speaker 1: one time, but she'll she'll be a lost administration, but

1611
01:33:16,680 --> 01:33:19,240
Speaker 1: we'll see who they replace her with but Sarah Huckabee

1612
01:33:19,240 --> 01:33:23,240
Speaker 1: Sanders served Trump well and we wish her well going forward.

1613
01:33:27,640 --> 01:33:41,360
Speaker 1: Team Buck, It's time for roll call Facebook dot com

1614
01:33:41,400 --> 01:33:45,760
Speaker 1: slashbuck Sexton. You know how the role call gets going

1615
01:33:46,360 --> 01:33:49,240
Speaker 1: mostly through Facebook dot com slashbuck Sexton. That's how. So

1616
01:33:49,320 --> 01:33:51,320
Speaker 1: you can write me there, let me know what's going down,

1617
01:33:52,640 --> 01:33:54,519
Speaker 1: tell me where I'm wrong, tell me where I'm right,

1618
01:33:54,560 --> 01:33:58,040
Speaker 1: mostly where I'm right, hopefully occasionally where I'm wrong, just

1619
01:33:58,080 --> 01:34:00,840
Speaker 1: so I appreciate all the notes telling me where I'm right.

1620
01:34:01,280 --> 01:34:04,040
Speaker 1: That's how we like it. Thank you so much for

1621
01:34:05,280 --> 01:34:08,960
Speaker 1: hanging out, Team Buck. This is from Brian Agreed on

1622
01:34:09,000 --> 01:34:11,760
Speaker 1: the Trump International Hotel bar. It's a great vibe there

1623
01:34:11,760 --> 01:34:14,400
Speaker 1: with friendly people where I felt comfortable and a good

1624
01:34:14,600 --> 01:34:18,840
Speaker 1: refuge from the swamp people of DC. Like you, I

1625
01:34:18,880 --> 01:34:22,519
Speaker 1: believe that barring a great depression style recession, Trump will

1626
01:34:22,560 --> 01:34:26,400
Speaker 1: win in twenty twenty hands down. That said, one other

1627
01:34:26,439 --> 01:34:28,760
Speaker 1: factor can change this, and that's the liberal state and

1628
01:34:28,840 --> 01:34:32,559
Speaker 1: deep state efforts to eliminate our electoral college. There's some

1629
01:34:32,600 --> 01:34:35,880
Speaker 1: shady stuff going on as of late, with leftist trying

1630
01:34:35,880 --> 01:34:38,519
Speaker 1: to eliminate significant votes in the middle of the country

1631
01:34:38,880 --> 01:34:41,599
Speaker 1: and assure liberal cities of the Germanting factor for twenty

1632
01:34:41,640 --> 01:34:44,759
Speaker 1: twenty elections. We have an electoral college for a reason,

1633
01:34:44,960 --> 01:34:47,040
Speaker 1: and more public attention and scrutiny needs to be brought

1634
01:34:47,040 --> 01:34:49,599
Speaker 1: to this. Both Prager, you and Glenn Beck have been

1635
01:34:49,640 --> 01:34:53,439
Speaker 1: going into it in detail. We all need to speak

1636
01:34:53,479 --> 01:34:56,479
Speaker 1: out against this assault on our constitution. Oh, Brian, I

1637
01:34:56,479 --> 01:34:58,840
Speaker 1: mean this is You're correct, this is all very important.

1638
01:34:59,200 --> 01:35:04,280
Speaker 1: They're really is an effort to tell people that the

1639
01:35:04,320 --> 01:35:07,800
Speaker 1: electoral college is an anachronism. There's no need for an

1640
01:35:07,800 --> 01:35:11,160
Speaker 1: electoral college. We should just get rid of it entirely.

1641
01:35:11,760 --> 01:35:17,120
Speaker 1: And the founders thought about this stuff in great detail,

1642
01:35:17,640 --> 01:35:21,360
Speaker 1: and we're very aware of the need for and the

1643
01:35:21,640 --> 01:35:25,080
Speaker 1: decision making behind the system of checks and balances we

1644
01:35:25,160 --> 01:35:31,360
Speaker 1: have in the constitutional framework that our government was constructed around.

1645
01:35:32,120 --> 01:35:34,920
Speaker 1: So yes, it's true that there are libs now who

1646
01:35:35,000 --> 01:35:38,280
Speaker 1: are willing to change the rules and change any number

1647
01:35:38,280 --> 01:35:40,559
Speaker 1: of rules. I believe that there would be a liberal

1648
01:35:40,560 --> 01:35:42,880
Speaker 1: consensus if they could, if they could pull it off,

1649
01:35:42,920 --> 01:35:46,720
Speaker 1: if they had the raw power, meaning the seats in

1650
01:35:46,760 --> 01:35:50,880
Speaker 1: the House and the Senate as well as the Presidency,

1651
01:35:51,640 --> 01:35:55,160
Speaker 1: they would engage in packing of the Supreme Court, and

1652
01:35:55,200 --> 01:35:57,640
Speaker 1: I think they would have no qualms about it. I

1653
01:35:57,640 --> 01:36:00,680
Speaker 1: think they would absolutely go for it. We need to

1654
01:36:00,720 --> 01:36:03,120
Speaker 1: be aware that the rules that we think we're playing by,

1655
01:36:03,200 --> 01:36:05,920
Speaker 1: even those rules can change, and those rules are not

1656
01:36:06,560 --> 01:36:13,479
Speaker 1: sacred to the left. John Rights, would you be interested

1657
01:36:13,520 --> 01:36:18,720
Speaker 1: in a Star Trek Picard, mister Sexton, I have no

1658
01:36:18,760 --> 01:36:20,439
Speaker 1: idea what you're asking me, really, other than I know

1659
01:36:20,479 --> 01:36:24,400
Speaker 1: that there's Jean Luke Piccard in Star Trek, but thank

1660
01:36:24,479 --> 01:36:27,960
Speaker 1: you for writing. Jeremy Buck, I know you've delved in

1661
01:36:28,000 --> 01:36:29,639
Speaker 1: the background in history of the Middle East, but maybe

1662
01:36:29,680 --> 01:36:32,679
Speaker 1: it would be worth it to spend some time during

1663
01:36:32,720 --> 01:36:35,559
Speaker 1: a future show on the civil war in Yemen, on

1664
01:36:35,640 --> 01:36:37,400
Speaker 1: the tanker attacks that occurred to the Gulf of a

1665
01:36:37,479 --> 01:36:39,559
Speaker 1: mom There's a discussion that are on in Saudi Arabia

1666
01:36:39,560 --> 01:36:42,479
Speaker 1: are clashing over the civil war in Yemen. It seems

1667
01:36:42,520 --> 01:36:44,040
Speaker 1: like peace is nothing but a fairy tale in the

1668
01:36:44,080 --> 01:36:48,160
Speaker 1: Middle East. Shields Hie, Jeremy, Yeah, Jeremy, A deep dive

1669
01:36:48,200 --> 01:36:51,320
Speaker 1: on the Yemeni Civil War would probably be worthwhile, so

1670
01:36:51,800 --> 01:36:54,040
Speaker 1: I think a lot of the folks listening would appreciate that,

1671
01:36:54,080 --> 01:36:55,760
Speaker 1: as long as it wasn't too long and it was

1672
01:36:55,840 --> 01:36:58,400
Speaker 1: jam packed with information. So I will make a note

1673
01:36:58,400 --> 01:37:01,880
Speaker 1: of that. The very short version of a much longer

1674
01:37:01,920 --> 01:37:05,840
Speaker 1: story is that, yes, the Yemeni Civil War is now

1675
01:37:05,880 --> 01:37:10,080
Speaker 1: a proxy battle, and it is a Sunny Shia part

1676
01:37:10,120 --> 01:37:12,559
Speaker 1: of the Sunny Shia fight that is royaling the entire

1677
01:37:12,600 --> 01:37:15,519
Speaker 1: Middle East and will continue to and really has been

1678
01:37:16,320 --> 01:37:19,080
Speaker 1: a bat an ongoing battle in the Middle East since

1679
01:37:19,200 --> 01:37:22,800
Speaker 1: the eighth century or so. It's been going on for

1680
01:37:22,880 --> 01:37:26,600
Speaker 1: quite a while. Yeah, the situation Yemen. I mean, I

1681
01:37:26,880 --> 01:37:29,080
Speaker 1: was on Kennedy's show last night. We had a disagreement

1682
01:37:29,120 --> 01:37:30,720
Speaker 1: about this one. Sometimes we have a little bit of

1683
01:37:30,720 --> 01:37:33,960
Speaker 1: a feisty exchange. On Kennedy's show on Fox Business. She

1684
01:37:34,080 --> 01:37:37,280
Speaker 1: thinks that the seven billion one points had one hundred

1685
01:37:37,280 --> 01:37:40,599
Speaker 1: and fifty billion. I think she's referring to the amount

1686
01:37:40,680 --> 01:37:44,240
Speaker 1: of arm sales over the eight years of the Obama administration.

1687
01:37:44,760 --> 01:37:47,560
Speaker 1: Then you get into the one hundred billion dollars plus category,

1688
01:37:47,760 --> 01:37:51,120
Speaker 1: and that's coming up on a decade. But what's left

1689
01:37:51,160 --> 01:37:54,200
Speaker 1: now is a seven billion dollar sale that the administration,

1690
01:37:54,720 --> 01:37:57,000
Speaker 1: the Trump administration, wants to go forward with. And you

1691
01:37:57,040 --> 01:37:59,800
Speaker 1: have these senators who are saying, oh no, no, don't

1692
01:37:59,800 --> 01:38:03,439
Speaker 1: do at It doesn't really have any effect other than

1693
01:38:03,880 --> 01:38:07,120
Speaker 1: to make the senators who stand up and get to

1694
01:38:07,160 --> 01:38:10,599
Speaker 1: give a flowery speech about how Saudi Arabia's a dictatorship. Yeah,

1695
01:38:10,600 --> 01:38:13,599
Speaker 1: but are we not going to say they're an ally

1696
01:38:13,680 --> 01:38:15,720
Speaker 1: because they're an Allied state. And if we're going to

1697
01:38:15,800 --> 01:38:18,200
Speaker 1: start telling allied states that they're terrible but they're still

1698
01:38:18,200 --> 01:38:20,800
Speaker 1: our allies, we're gonna have a lot of problems and

1699
01:38:20,840 --> 01:38:22,479
Speaker 1: they're not going to stop what's going on. You know,

1700
01:38:22,560 --> 01:38:26,160
Speaker 1: Yemen is an extension of the Arabian Peninsula. Yemen is

1701
01:38:27,560 --> 01:38:30,280
Speaker 1: a large country that borders Saudi Arabia. So we can

1702
01:38:30,320 --> 01:38:33,960
Speaker 1: say whatever we want about how we don't want there

1703
01:38:33,960 --> 01:38:39,639
Speaker 1: to be civilian casualties in this fight, but Saudi Arabia

1704
01:38:39,720 --> 01:38:40,920
Speaker 1: is going to do what it wants to do here,

1705
01:38:41,880 --> 01:38:44,120
Speaker 1: and we'd rather have the Saudis on our side, especially

1706
01:38:44,160 --> 01:38:47,520
Speaker 1: when we have to deal with the Iranians than the alternative.

1707
01:38:49,520 --> 01:38:51,200
Speaker 1: Here we go, John, Right, So listen to your show

1708
01:38:51,200 --> 01:38:53,400
Speaker 1: in the morning and usually enjoy a snack during it.

1709
01:38:53,840 --> 01:38:56,200
Speaker 1: Today you played a clip of two idiots on CNN

1710
01:38:56,240 --> 01:38:59,519
Speaker 1: almost breaking their arms patting themselves on their backs about

1711
01:38:59,560 --> 01:39:01,800
Speaker 1: how they are the defenders of truth. I almost spit

1712
01:39:01,800 --> 01:39:05,280
Speaker 1: out my delicious orange and chocolate combo. Is it possible.

1713
01:39:05,280 --> 01:39:07,280
Speaker 1: You could give us a little warning when playing clip

1714
01:39:07,360 --> 01:39:09,240
Speaker 1: from CNN. Well, John, no, I don't want to give

1715
01:39:09,240 --> 01:39:12,160
Speaker 1: you a warning because I want to make sure that

1716
01:39:13,000 --> 01:39:16,479
Speaker 1: you know you're on your toes, my friend, once you

1717
01:39:16,560 --> 01:39:19,479
Speaker 1: ready to rock, don't you already know what's going on?

1718
01:39:20,800 --> 01:39:22,559
Speaker 1: And that means that sometimes there's going to be some

1719
01:39:22,640 --> 01:39:26,720
Speaker 1: CNN nonsense on this show that will happen. That is

1720
01:39:26,760 --> 01:39:31,000
Speaker 1: a real thing. So there you have it. Here we go,

1721
01:39:31,360 --> 01:39:37,400
Speaker 1: John Rights, Hey, Buck, want to come to La. I

1722
01:39:37,560 --> 01:39:42,000
Speaker 1: like LA. I don't know why asking me about La

1723
01:39:42,040 --> 01:39:45,960
Speaker 1: specifically right now, but yeah? Or oh wait, La City?

1724
01:39:46,040 --> 01:39:50,760
Speaker 1: What's that? Oh? Los Angeles Chocolate Convention? Now I know

1725
01:39:50,800 --> 01:39:52,840
Speaker 1: why you're inviting me, man, chocolate to the bet. Chocolate

1726
01:39:52,960 --> 01:39:55,840
Speaker 1: is my weakness? Well, I guess I have several weaknesses,

1727
01:39:55,840 --> 01:40:02,120
Speaker 1: but chocolate is high on the weakness scale. Wayne Right.

1728
01:40:02,400 --> 01:40:06,680
Speaker 1: Joe Biden says, cure cancer. Sure, why not? I mean

1729
01:40:06,800 --> 01:40:11,080
Speaker 1: we cured baldness. Check it out, Wayne Biden. I meant

1730
01:40:11,080 --> 01:40:12,639
Speaker 1: to play that cliplerd in the week. I don't think

1731
01:40:12,640 --> 01:40:14,559
Speaker 1: we got to it. But yeah, Biden is now in

1732
01:40:14,560 --> 01:40:17,080
Speaker 1: this place where he'll he'll say anything and he can

1733
01:40:17,120 --> 01:40:20,759
Speaker 1: get away with promising whatever he wants to because ultimately

1734
01:40:20,760 --> 01:40:23,920
Speaker 1: the media will cover for him. That's just the way

1735
01:40:23,960 --> 01:40:28,559
Speaker 1: it's going to happen. Here we go, c K writes

1736
01:40:28,600 --> 01:40:30,800
Speaker 1: in Buck not sure if this is the right place

1737
01:40:30,800 --> 01:40:33,599
Speaker 1: for roll call? Oh it is, Ck, but just heard

1738
01:40:33,640 --> 01:40:37,680
Speaker 1: tonight's show where you told somebody that Dalmatians have a

1739
01:40:37,800 --> 01:40:42,120
Speaker 1: bad temperament. Fake news. I've had approximately twenty four dollars

1740
01:40:42,120 --> 01:40:46,360
Speaker 1: since nineteen eighty and some were social butterflies, some more reserved,

1741
01:40:46,400 --> 01:40:49,720
Speaker 1: but none were mean. Such a false narrative spread. Who

1742
01:40:49,760 --> 01:40:52,400
Speaker 1: knows why dogs? If all breeds are as good as

1743
01:40:52,400 --> 01:40:55,920
Speaker 1: their training and socialization. Joined the Dalmatian Owners of America

1744
01:40:55,960 --> 01:40:57,880
Speaker 1: page if you want to learn more from long time

1745
01:40:57,920 --> 01:41:01,599
Speaker 1: and new owners, breeders and fans enjoy your show, Well, Ck,

1746
01:41:01,760 --> 01:41:04,439
Speaker 1: you're dropping the Dalmatian knowledge here for everyone across the

1747
01:41:04,439 --> 01:41:10,080
Speaker 1: country to hear. And I can't say I totally agree

1748
01:41:10,080 --> 01:41:11,920
Speaker 1: with your All dogs are the same, which is how

1749
01:41:11,920 --> 01:41:15,920
Speaker 1: they're raised. Comment some dogs. There is a biochemistry to

1750
01:41:15,960 --> 01:41:17,760
Speaker 1: these animals, and some dogs are going to have a

1751
01:41:17,840 --> 01:41:21,240
Speaker 1: higher tendency toward aggression than others. It is true that

1752
01:41:21,479 --> 01:41:23,759
Speaker 1: the way the dog is raised is the single biggest

1753
01:41:23,760 --> 01:41:27,400
Speaker 1: determining factor. But you've also got to take into account

1754
01:41:28,360 --> 01:41:33,519
Speaker 1: the internal mechanics, if you will, the biochemistry of these animals,

1755
01:41:33,520 --> 01:41:39,840
Speaker 1: and you have a lesser margin for error with some

1756
01:41:39,920 --> 01:41:43,600
Speaker 1: breeds than you do for others. And you know, I was,

1757
01:41:43,720 --> 01:41:45,120
Speaker 1: I was going to go into a whole thing about

1758
01:41:45,120 --> 01:41:48,360
Speaker 1: how there's a new dog on my floor that's a poodle,

1759
01:41:49,000 --> 01:41:51,519
Speaker 1: and how I'm not sure that poodle should count as dogs,

1760
01:41:51,600 --> 01:41:53,320
Speaker 1: and then I start and then I start trashing poodles,

1761
01:41:53,320 --> 01:41:56,080
Speaker 1: and poodle owners always freak out at being it's so

1762
01:41:56,160 --> 01:41:59,800
Speaker 1: because poodle owners are very devoted to their poodles. And

1763
01:42:00,040 --> 01:42:01,800
Speaker 1: when I say, well, why don't you guys do the

1764
01:42:01,840 --> 01:42:03,639
Speaker 1: thing where you shave them all funny with the pom

1765
01:42:03,680 --> 01:42:05,760
Speaker 1: poms on the legs and the and they say, we

1766
01:42:05,800 --> 01:42:09,479
Speaker 1: don't do that, and you know, okay, but I'm just

1767
01:42:09,520 --> 01:42:11,840
Speaker 1: not a poodle guy. I'm just of the dogs. I

1768
01:42:11,960 --> 01:42:14,920
Speaker 1: like all dogs, but of the dog breeds out there,

1769
01:42:15,720 --> 01:42:18,120
Speaker 1: I think the one that I just I don't know.

1770
01:42:18,360 --> 01:42:21,080
Speaker 1: I don't really get the poodle thing. The doodle thing.

1771
01:42:21,120 --> 01:42:22,920
Speaker 1: I understand, they're a little they're a little more of

1772
01:42:22,920 --> 01:42:25,320
Speaker 1: my speed. But the straight up poodles, oh, I know,

1773
01:42:25,400 --> 01:42:28,080
Speaker 1: they're so smart and everyone's gonna yell at me for look.

1774
01:42:28,200 --> 01:42:30,040
Speaker 1: You can like what you like. That's the good news.

1775
01:42:30,120 --> 01:42:35,200
Speaker 1: Different different strokes for different folks. Matt writes, a no

1776
01:42:35,320 --> 01:42:38,479
Speaker 1: party like a Canadian Society party for the study of

1777
01:42:38,600 --> 01:42:43,720
Speaker 1: education party. Matt, I don't know what you've I don't

1778
01:42:43,720 --> 01:42:46,200
Speaker 1: know what you've got in the I was gonna say

1779
01:42:46,200 --> 01:42:49,479
Speaker 1: that breathalyzer. What's that? The vaporizer up in Canada? But

1780
01:42:50,479 --> 01:42:52,479
Speaker 1: I could probably use some of myself right about now.

1781
01:42:53,840 --> 01:42:58,759
Speaker 1: Let's see, Irene, any chance if you're rejoining the Blaze

1782
01:42:58,880 --> 01:43:03,360
Speaker 1: for a platform more exposure, Irene, I haven't spoken in

1783
01:43:03,520 --> 01:43:05,720
Speaker 1: my old colleagues at the Blaze about that at anytime

1784
01:43:05,760 --> 01:43:11,559
Speaker 1: in recent months. I will have a new platform this summer.

1785
01:43:11,800 --> 01:43:14,200
Speaker 1: I can't give you specifics on the details yet, but

1786
01:43:14,240 --> 01:43:17,479
Speaker 1: there will be cool new stuff happening in the Freedom Hut,

1787
01:43:17,479 --> 01:43:22,360
Speaker 1: and that is for sure. That's definitely going down. And yeah,

1788
01:43:22,360 --> 01:43:25,360
Speaker 1: and also I have a book that I'm in the

1789
01:43:25,400 --> 01:43:27,960
Speaker 1: final stages of signing off on the contract to write,

1790
01:43:28,520 --> 01:43:30,479
Speaker 1: so that should be happening and hopefully the book will

1791
01:43:30,479 --> 01:43:34,160
Speaker 1: be out by Christmas time. And yes, I'm very much

1792
01:43:34,200 --> 01:43:37,639
Speaker 1: excited about it. Patty writes, I wish you were dressing

1793
01:43:37,680 --> 01:43:42,480
Speaker 1: shifts joke of a hearing. This is infuriating, innuendo, hypotheticals,

1794
01:43:42,560 --> 01:43:46,719
Speaker 1: lies all of shifts usual tactics. Yeah, I mean, shifty

1795
01:43:46,760 --> 01:43:49,439
Speaker 1: shift is the sketchiest of sketchy. We all know this,

1796
01:43:49,920 --> 01:43:53,120
Speaker 1: so shouldn't be a surprise to anyone when it turns

1797
01:43:53,120 --> 01:43:56,360
Speaker 1: out that he's not, in fact on the up and

1798
01:43:56,479 --> 01:43:59,719
Speaker 1: up in these hearings. Paul Right, hey bucks. Someone mentioned

1799
01:43:59,720 --> 01:44:02,800
Speaker 1: books about bureaucracy on Roll Call the other day. I

1800
01:44:02,840 --> 01:44:06,480
Speaker 1: think the penultimate work on the subject is PJ O'Rourke's

1801
01:44:06,560 --> 01:44:09,160
Speaker 1: Parliament of Whors. I'm assuming you've read it, but if

1802
01:44:09,160 --> 01:44:11,280
Speaker 1: you haven't, it is the most cynically honest take ever

1803
01:44:12,320 --> 01:44:16,320
Speaker 1: on the slug like workings of the US government. It's fierce, fiery,

1804
01:44:16,360 --> 01:44:19,320
Speaker 1: funny and accurate in an hl Menkin kind of way.

1805
01:44:19,800 --> 01:44:23,000
Speaker 1: For anyone trying to understand government should be required reading

1806
01:44:23,120 --> 01:44:24,840
Speaker 1: shields High. Well, you know, Paul, I've actually done a

1807
01:44:24,840 --> 01:44:28,679
Speaker 1: fair amount of work with PJ. We've done some fireside

1808
01:44:28,760 --> 01:44:31,400
Speaker 1: chats together. I write for an online magazine that he

1809
01:44:32,120 --> 01:44:36,000
Speaker 1: edits called American Consequences. So I'm familiar with pj's work,

1810
01:44:36,040 --> 01:44:38,840
Speaker 1: but I and I know PJ personally, but I have

1811
01:44:39,000 --> 01:44:42,120
Speaker 1: not read Parliament of Whorrs, so that's quite a title,

1812
01:44:43,240 --> 01:44:47,360
Speaker 1: certainly eyecatching. But I will have to look into this

1813
