WEBVTT - Trump Triggers Media Meltdown

0:00:10.880 --> 0:00:16.239
<v Speaker 1>You are entering the freedom hunt. The Liberal Meeting is

0:00:16.280 --> 0:00:20.000
<v Speaker 1>at it again. They're deciding that they're gonna go after Trump.

0:00:20.120 --> 0:00:24.000
<v Speaker 1>On the Trump Tower Meeting, they're saying foreign interference. Trump

0:00:24.040 --> 0:00:26.840
<v Speaker 1>said it's okay. They're in full meltdown over that. We'll

0:00:26.840 --> 0:00:28.680
<v Speaker 1>get into that a much more coming up on the

0:00:28.720 --> 0:00:33.600
<v Speaker 1>Buck Sexton Show. This is the Buck Sexton Show, where

0:00:33.600 --> 0:00:36.600
<v Speaker 1>the mission or mission is to decode what really matters

0:00:36.840 --> 0:00:44.000
<v Speaker 1>with actionable intelligence. Mag no mistake, American. You're a great American. Again,

0:00:44.120 --> 0:00:51.600
<v Speaker 1>the Buck Sexton Show begins. Analysts, remember he's a great guy. No,

0:00:53.440 --> 0:00:55.440
<v Speaker 1>I think you might want to listen. I don't know.

0:00:55.440 --> 0:00:59.040
<v Speaker 1>There's nothing well withth listening. If somebody call from a

0:00:59.120 --> 0:01:04.040
<v Speaker 1>country Norway, we have information on your opponent, Oh, I

0:01:04.080 --> 0:01:05.480
<v Speaker 1>think i'd want to hear it. Do you want that

0:01:05.560 --> 0:01:08.080
<v Speaker 1>kind of interference in our elections? It's not an interference.

0:01:08.120 --> 0:01:10.520
<v Speaker 1>They have information. I think i'd take it. If I

0:01:10.560 --> 0:01:12.640
<v Speaker 1>thought there was something wrong, I'd go maybe to the

0:01:12.680 --> 0:01:17.000
<v Speaker 1>FBI if I thought there was something wrong. Welcome to

0:01:17.040 --> 0:01:21.280
<v Speaker 1>the Buck Sexton Show. Oh man, here we go back

0:01:21.319 --> 0:01:23.440
<v Speaker 1>to the old bag of tricks. Here for the Democrats,

0:01:23.480 --> 0:01:26.800
<v Speaker 1>for the Libs, let's talk about foreign interference in our

0:01:26.800 --> 0:01:32.160
<v Speaker 1>elections again. Oh gosh, the Trump Tower meeting where no

0:01:32.240 --> 0:01:38.240
<v Speaker 1>information of any worth or any consequence was exchanged. They're

0:01:38.280 --> 0:01:42.440
<v Speaker 1>looking for something, anything, now to revive the fortunes of

0:01:42.480 --> 0:01:45.720
<v Speaker 1>the hashtag resistance after the flop of the Mulla report,

0:01:46.120 --> 0:01:49.120
<v Speaker 1>Muller's pathetic press conference to try to breathe new life

0:01:49.120 --> 0:01:53.240
<v Speaker 1>into the efforts to impeach Trump. The Democrats know that

0:01:53.320 --> 0:01:57.560
<v Speaker 1>impeachment comes with risks. They're trying to make it less

0:01:57.720 --> 0:02:02.600
<v Speaker 1>risky by trashing Trump with the same old narratives that

0:02:02.640 --> 0:02:06.240
<v Speaker 1>they've used in the past, the same old nonsense. It's

0:02:06.320 --> 0:02:13.639
<v Speaker 1>just ridiculous. And here they are asking the president, Oh,

0:02:13.639 --> 0:02:17.760
<v Speaker 1>George Stephanopolis of ABC News, little Clinton operative sitting or

0:02:17.760 --> 0:02:21.200
<v Speaker 1>actually standing there and get into that later, asking the

0:02:21.200 --> 0:02:24.280
<v Speaker 1>President United States, why are you okay with that foreign interference.

0:02:24.400 --> 0:02:27.000
<v Speaker 1>Let's think this through for a second, shall we. You're

0:02:27.040 --> 0:02:30.400
<v Speaker 1>in a presidential campaign. There's opposition research coming in all

0:02:30.400 --> 0:02:32.160
<v Speaker 1>over the place. People are saying all kinds of things.

0:02:32.200 --> 0:02:35.679
<v Speaker 1>You're hearing rumors all over and if someone remember he

0:02:35.760 --> 0:02:38.600
<v Speaker 1>wasn't president when this happened. He's just a campaign for president.

0:02:39.680 --> 0:02:42.480
<v Speaker 1>And someone says they've got really, really critical information about

0:02:42.480 --> 0:02:45.720
<v Speaker 1>your opponent that could change the course of the the race.

0:02:45.760 --> 0:02:48.000
<v Speaker 1>You're gonna say, no, sorry, I don't I don't like

0:02:48.760 --> 0:02:52.920
<v Speaker 1>where the information is coming from. Is that realistic? Does

0:02:52.960 --> 0:02:55.519
<v Speaker 1>anyone think that would that would really wash? That would

0:02:55.560 --> 0:03:01.799
<v Speaker 1>be the case? This is silly. What if they send

0:03:01.800 --> 0:03:04.000
<v Speaker 1>an email to the president. What if somebody got Trump's

0:03:04.320 --> 0:03:06.480
<v Speaker 1>phone number and send a text message, Hey, here's what

0:03:06.520 --> 0:03:08.760
<v Speaker 1>you need to know. He opens his phone. There it is.

0:03:08.760 --> 0:03:12.160
<v Speaker 1>He's supposed to say, ah, my eyes, I have to

0:03:12.480 --> 0:03:15.160
<v Speaker 1>pretend that I forget this. I can never use this

0:03:15.200 --> 0:03:18.239
<v Speaker 1>really valuable information that I have, or maybe it's not valuable.

0:03:19.680 --> 0:03:22.920
<v Speaker 1>But you're supposed to what run away cry, say that

0:03:22.960 --> 0:03:24.480
<v Speaker 1>you never wanted to see this in the first place.

0:03:24.520 --> 0:03:29.760
<v Speaker 1>This is absurd. Is this is patternly absurd? Now that's

0:03:29.760 --> 0:03:33.440
<v Speaker 1>just on its own. This this new standard of oh,

0:03:33.440 --> 0:03:36.680
<v Speaker 1>maybe I've got information that proves that Hillary Clinton's a criminal,

0:03:36.680 --> 0:03:38.360
<v Speaker 1>but no, no, don't give that to me. It's from

0:03:38.360 --> 0:03:42.840
<v Speaker 1>a foreign government, and this is America. We don't do that, sir. Meanwhile,

0:03:42.960 --> 0:03:47.120
<v Speaker 1>the Clinton campaign sent operatives to Ukraine to try to

0:03:47.120 --> 0:03:50.400
<v Speaker 1>dig up dirt on Trump. But that's not even the

0:03:50.400 --> 0:03:54.160
<v Speaker 1>biggest effort of foreign interference. That they were engaged in.

0:03:55.320 --> 0:03:57.920
<v Speaker 1>Here's the problem for the Libs, for the Democrats. Enough

0:03:57.960 --> 0:04:00.760
<v Speaker 1>people have read the reports, now understand what's going on

0:04:01.480 --> 0:04:06.280
<v Speaker 1>that when Libs yell foreign interference, we yell back dossier.

0:04:07.800 --> 0:04:12.320
<v Speaker 1>Here's the fundamental problem, the fundamental question that they cannot answer.

0:04:13.520 --> 0:04:17.039
<v Speaker 1>How are we supposed to pretend that they care the

0:04:17.200 --> 0:04:22.560
<v Speaker 1>Libs care about foreign interference at the election when officially

0:04:22.760 --> 0:04:25.680
<v Speaker 1>and as a matter of record, not a theory, not

0:04:26.000 --> 0:04:28.200
<v Speaker 1>something that you know, maybe kind of sort o, we

0:04:28.240 --> 0:04:31.159
<v Speaker 1>don't know yet, as a matter of public record that

0:04:31.240 --> 0:04:36.520
<v Speaker 1>all sides agree on the facts about the DNC on

0:04:36.600 --> 0:04:40.520
<v Speaker 1>behalf of the Hillary Clinton campaign hired a law firm

0:04:40.920 --> 0:04:46.240
<v Speaker 1>that hired a foreign intelligence operative, a foreigner who was

0:04:46.320 --> 0:04:51.279
<v Speaker 1>hired specifically because of his connections to Russians and time

0:04:51.640 --> 0:04:56.520
<v Speaker 1>working on Russia. And he went around and spoke to

0:04:56.600 --> 0:04:59.560
<v Speaker 1>when you could see it in the dossier, Russian government

0:04:59.600 --> 0:05:06.919
<v Speaker 1>official who gave him anti Trump information, most likely disinformation.

0:05:08.800 --> 0:05:12.800
<v Speaker 1>And then he was used by the DNC and their

0:05:12.880 --> 0:05:18.719
<v Speaker 1>law firm, Perkins Coy to launder that information, give it

0:05:18.800 --> 0:05:22.680
<v Speaker 1>the veneer of credibility, run with it to the American

0:05:22.960 --> 0:05:27.440
<v Speaker 1>journalist Cadre. The journos and give it to the FBI

0:05:27.520 --> 0:05:31.400
<v Speaker 1>and the DOJ, and they ran with it and even

0:05:31.400 --> 0:05:33.600
<v Speaker 1>took it to the fives Accord and presented it as real.

0:05:34.040 --> 0:05:37.000
<v Speaker 1>Where's the real foreign influence in the election in this situation,

0:05:37.040 --> 0:05:41.680
<v Speaker 1>my friends, who's really using foreigners to try to change

0:05:41.720 --> 0:05:45.400
<v Speaker 1>the results of the election to try to destroy political opponents.

0:05:47.839 --> 0:05:53.120
<v Speaker 1>Trump's team, unbeknownst to Trump, including Maniford and Cohen and

0:05:53.160 --> 0:05:56.360
<v Speaker 1>Trump Junior, sat down to have a meeting with the

0:05:56.400 --> 0:05:58.480
<v Speaker 1>lady who said that she had really important information from

0:05:58.520 --> 0:06:01.800
<v Speaker 1>Russia's prosecutor. Could have been information about Hillary Clinton being

0:06:01.839 --> 0:06:06.560
<v Speaker 1>a criminal, because Hillary Clinton is a criminal. What's the

0:06:06.720 --> 0:06:10.960
<v Speaker 1>what's the big problem this sanctimony about how, oh, it's

0:06:11.000 --> 0:06:14.600
<v Speaker 1>so unpatriotic. If you're going to tell me that taking

0:06:14.600 --> 0:06:17.480
<v Speaker 1>that meetings on patriotic, and then you're gonna mumble mumble,

0:06:18.080 --> 0:06:24.320
<v Speaker 1>you know, mister rect misdirect about the dossier and the

0:06:24.440 --> 0:06:28.000
<v Speaker 1>role of Christopher Steele and all of his Russian subsources,

0:06:28.040 --> 0:06:33.320
<v Speaker 1>including Russian government officials, in an active measures campaign against

0:06:33.360 --> 0:06:37.280
<v Speaker 1>Trump and against his people. You have no credibility. You're

0:06:37.279 --> 0:06:42.279
<v Speaker 1>a hack. But the media is still they're still just

0:06:42.320 --> 0:06:44.560
<v Speaker 1>trying to force feed this to the American people. Oh,

0:06:44.640 --> 0:06:48.400
<v Speaker 1>just don't ignore what we know. Just believe what we say.

0:06:49.240 --> 0:06:51.840
<v Speaker 1>Just take our word for take our version of these

0:06:51.880 --> 0:06:55.720
<v Speaker 1>facts as all you need to know. This is just madness.

0:06:56.640 --> 0:07:03.440
<v Speaker 1>It's madness what they're doing. But Trump's arrangement syndrome forces

0:07:03.560 --> 0:07:09.240
<v Speaker 1>or induces this kind of mania. Anything that they can

0:07:09.279 --> 0:07:11.720
<v Speaker 1>do to take down Trump, to stop him from four

0:07:11.760 --> 0:07:14.640
<v Speaker 1>more years, they think is justified. A lot of them,

0:07:14.640 --> 0:07:16.680
<v Speaker 1>I believe, could not and I mean CNN and the

0:07:16.720 --> 0:07:20.840
<v Speaker 1>Washington Post and a lot of prominent Democrats cannot psychologically

0:07:20.880 --> 0:07:25.520
<v Speaker 1>handle four more years of Trump. They will be broken,

0:07:25.600 --> 0:07:28.800
<v Speaker 1>if they have not already been broken. And so whatever

0:07:28.840 --> 0:07:30.960
<v Speaker 1>they have to do to stop him they think is

0:07:30.960 --> 0:07:36.160
<v Speaker 1>inherently justified. I want an answer. I want somebody who

0:07:36.280 --> 0:07:39.200
<v Speaker 1>is prominent in the Democratic Party. I want some of

0:07:39.240 --> 0:07:42.440
<v Speaker 1>the masses of all these journals ringing around. How is

0:07:42.480 --> 0:07:46.120
<v Speaker 1>the Steel dossier, with all of its Russian sources, which

0:07:46.240 --> 0:07:52.520
<v Speaker 1>was successfully used against Trump, brought to the fires a court, unverified, unvetted,

0:07:52.640 --> 0:07:58.800
<v Speaker 1>raw intelligence information. The DNC specifically went after somebody who

0:07:58.880 --> 0:08:02.760
<v Speaker 1>had sources in Russia. How is that not foreign interference

0:08:02.760 --> 0:08:07.720
<v Speaker 1>in our election? A foreigner talking to foreigners, creating compromise,

0:08:07.840 --> 0:08:11.559
<v Speaker 1>compromising information on Trump and running it to our own

0:08:11.600 --> 0:08:15.280
<v Speaker 1>intelligence community as well as all the journals that want

0:08:15.320 --> 0:08:18.520
<v Speaker 1>to take Trump down. How is that not for because

0:08:18.520 --> 0:08:22.360
<v Speaker 1>it was paid for, because he was able to convince

0:08:22.400 --> 0:08:26.000
<v Speaker 1>the clowns at the FBI that this was legit. That's

0:08:26.040 --> 0:08:28.880
<v Speaker 1>not an answer. I want an answer or else. I

0:08:28.920 --> 0:08:30.560
<v Speaker 1>don't want to hear about the Trump Power meeting from

0:08:30.560 --> 0:08:34.360
<v Speaker 1>any of these losers ever. Again, it's meaningless. They have

0:08:34.440 --> 0:08:38.559
<v Speaker 1>no standards other than Trump derangement, and that's not a standard.

0:08:38.720 --> 0:08:40.880
<v Speaker 1>We're just getting started here. I'll be right back. That's

0:08:40.880 --> 0:08:43.160
<v Speaker 1>not the right answer. If a foreign government comes to

0:08:43.160 --> 0:08:46.760
<v Speaker 1>you as a public official and I'll first to help

0:08:46.800 --> 0:08:49.719
<v Speaker 1>your campaign, giving you anything of value, whether it be

0:08:49.840 --> 0:08:52.959
<v Speaker 1>mining or information on your opponent, the right answer is snow,

0:08:53.720 --> 0:08:58.319
<v Speaker 1>and I've been consistent about that. I think Chris Frey's

0:08:58.440 --> 0:09:01.520
<v Speaker 1>statement is to correct state, and I'm hoping some of

0:09:01.600 --> 0:09:05.160
<v Speaker 1>my Democratic colleagues will take more seriously the fact that

0:09:05.240 --> 0:09:07.760
<v Speaker 1>Christopher Still was a foreign agent paid for about the

0:09:07.800 --> 0:09:12.640
<v Speaker 1>Timocratic Party. Okay, folks, here's where I gotta tell you

0:09:12.720 --> 0:09:17.360
<v Speaker 1>that the Lindsey Graham is wrong. I disagree with Lindsey Graham.

0:09:17.559 --> 0:09:19.400
<v Speaker 1>Foreign government comes to you and says they have really

0:09:19.440 --> 0:09:25.360
<v Speaker 1>important information. The right answer is no. That may sound

0:09:25.400 --> 0:09:27.800
<v Speaker 1>really you know, you could pound your chest on that

0:09:27.840 --> 0:09:29.640
<v Speaker 1>and say, see, look at how great we are and

0:09:30.120 --> 0:09:32.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, keeping the American election just about Americans or whatever,

0:09:32.920 --> 0:09:35.080
<v Speaker 1>which is also a whole other conversation. We've got a

0:09:35.080 --> 0:09:37.520
<v Speaker 1>global media environment. We have an Internet that's global. There's

0:09:37.520 --> 0:09:40.920
<v Speaker 1>information flowing all the time everywhere. Are we supposed to

0:09:40.920 --> 0:09:44.720
<v Speaker 1>now track down where the information comes from? Constantly? If

0:09:44.720 --> 0:09:47.400
<v Speaker 1>a president sees a new story from a foreign country,

0:09:48.000 --> 0:09:51.560
<v Speaker 1>a former country's news service that's a state news are

0:09:51.559 --> 0:09:54.600
<v Speaker 1>they not allowed to use that information? If? What if

0:09:54.600 --> 0:09:57.560
<v Speaker 1>it's then picked up by other news organizations, but the

0:09:57.640 --> 0:10:00.160
<v Speaker 1>origin of it is the state news service of some

0:10:00.200 --> 0:10:03.040
<v Speaker 1>other country, They're not allowed to use that. That would

0:10:03.040 --> 0:10:07.360
<v Speaker 1>be a contribution in a sense, wouldn't it. This is

0:10:07.400 --> 0:10:11.160
<v Speaker 1>why these rules are ridiculous and this formulation is just wrong.

0:10:13.200 --> 0:10:15.880
<v Speaker 1>And I think, you know, look, Lindsay Graham, I think

0:10:15.920 --> 0:10:17.719
<v Speaker 1>he's a I think he's an honorable guy and a

0:10:17.800 --> 0:10:20.079
<v Speaker 1>well intentioned guy. I don't think he's I don't I

0:10:20.080 --> 0:10:24.319
<v Speaker 1>don't think he's that wise, and I think that he's

0:10:24.360 --> 0:10:26.240
<v Speaker 1>wrong on stuff. And I think he's wrong on this.

0:10:28.440 --> 0:10:31.760
<v Speaker 1>Um here, here's let's play this scenario game. They keep saying, okay,

0:10:31.840 --> 0:10:35.079
<v Speaker 1>because really they create all those Russia hysteria stuff. But

0:10:35.120 --> 0:10:37.080
<v Speaker 1>let's say it's not Russia. Let's say it's some other country.

0:10:37.440 --> 0:10:44.200
<v Speaker 1>Let's say it's someone else. All right, the Russian government

0:10:45.320 --> 0:10:47.920
<v Speaker 1>is one thing. Let's say the French government comes forward

0:10:47.960 --> 0:10:51.800
<v Speaker 1>and says, you know what, we've got information for you.

0:10:51.800 --> 0:10:54.040
<v Speaker 1>You know Hillary in the last election, you know, Hillary

0:10:54.040 --> 0:10:58.280
<v Speaker 1>Clinton's husband, Bill Clinton, uh, sexually assaulted. I'm just this

0:10:58.360 --> 0:11:01.160
<v Speaker 1>is a scenario. This is a hypeth edical but I'm

0:11:01.200 --> 0:11:04.319
<v Speaker 1>just Hillary Clinton's husband, Bill Clinton, sexually assaulted a young

0:11:04.320 --> 0:11:08.320
<v Speaker 1>girl in France. And you know, we have real evidence

0:11:08.360 --> 0:11:09.920
<v Speaker 1>that's come forward, and we you know, we have a

0:11:09.960 --> 0:11:11.520
<v Speaker 1>real process. But you know, you should know that this

0:11:11.559 --> 0:11:14.120
<v Speaker 1>is what happened. And the French government, you know, the

0:11:14.120 --> 0:11:16.559
<v Speaker 1>minute the French Minister of remember it was the Russian

0:11:17.360 --> 0:11:20.040
<v Speaker 1>senior lawyer. I forget what the guy's title was, A

0:11:20.120 --> 0:11:24.120
<v Speaker 1>velance guy said she represented sort of the senior prosecutor. Well,

0:11:24.160 --> 0:11:26.640
<v Speaker 1>what if the French minister of justice said, you know,

0:11:26.679 --> 0:11:29.680
<v Speaker 1>we've got we've got reasonably that Bill Clinton assaulted a

0:11:29.720 --> 0:11:31.840
<v Speaker 1>young girl and we wanted you to know that. We

0:11:31.840 --> 0:11:35.319
<v Speaker 1>think the American people should know that. Does anybody want

0:11:35.320 --> 0:11:37.040
<v Speaker 1>to sound like a total moron and tell me, oh,

0:11:37.080 --> 0:11:40.920
<v Speaker 1>you can't use that information. Oh that's a that's a

0:11:40.960 --> 0:11:46.680
<v Speaker 1>campaign contribution. Mc dare. This is idiocy. The moment you

0:11:46.760 --> 0:11:48.920
<v Speaker 1>take this standard they say they're setting up, and you

0:11:48.960 --> 0:11:51.360
<v Speaker 1>apply it more generally and and try to make it

0:11:51.440 --> 0:11:56.559
<v Speaker 1>universally applicable, not just in this Russia collusion hysteria, it

0:11:56.600 --> 0:12:00.600
<v Speaker 1>all falls apart. And when you add to this the

0:12:00.760 --> 0:12:05.160
<v Speaker 1>very real prospect that Hillary Clinton may have taken a

0:12:05.160 --> 0:12:07.599
<v Speaker 1>bribe or a husband may have taken a bribe from Russia.

0:12:07.760 --> 0:12:12.199
<v Speaker 1>What if Vesslanskaia is like, look, here's the information. You know, Hillary,

0:12:12.800 --> 0:12:15.160
<v Speaker 1>there was a meeting, it was arranged. Bill Clinton got

0:12:15.160 --> 0:12:17.280
<v Speaker 1>a check for five hundred thousand dollars from a Russian

0:12:17.280 --> 0:12:18.959
<v Speaker 1>bank to give a speech. No one gets paid a

0:12:18.960 --> 0:12:21.760
<v Speaker 1>half million dollars for a speech. This is insane. But

0:12:22.000 --> 0:12:24.920
<v Speaker 1>his wife was Secretary of State at the time. And

0:12:24.960 --> 0:12:27.720
<v Speaker 1>then we had this agreement through an intermediary that Hillary

0:12:27.800 --> 0:12:30.959
<v Speaker 1>was gonna, you know, de sanction the following Russians or

0:12:31.040 --> 0:12:34.400
<v Speaker 1>something like that. What if that had happened that could

0:12:34.400 --> 0:12:36.240
<v Speaker 1>have happened. That's not a crazy scenario at all. I mean,

0:12:36.320 --> 0:12:39.400
<v Speaker 1>Hillary and Bill Clinton or wildly corrupt and the media

0:12:39.440 --> 0:12:42.199
<v Speaker 1>pretending they weren't is one of the greatest knocks on

0:12:42.240 --> 0:12:45.400
<v Speaker 1>their credibility that you could point to. It's laughable. And

0:12:45.480 --> 0:12:48.160
<v Speaker 1>the Clinton Foundation is collapsing. No one cares for the

0:12:48.160 --> 0:12:51.320
<v Speaker 1>Clinton Foundation anymore because it was all affront for influence

0:12:51.360 --> 0:12:56.240
<v Speaker 1>peddling and access selling. Pretending to be a charity. It

0:12:56.320 --> 0:13:00.480
<v Speaker 1>was a pass through for the Clinton brand and paying

0:13:00.480 --> 0:13:02.720
<v Speaker 1>for their lifestyle and paying for their private jets and

0:13:04.400 --> 0:13:08.520
<v Speaker 1>essentially creating a government in exile for the Clintons. And

0:13:08.559 --> 0:13:10.560
<v Speaker 1>the media acted like, oh, oh, it's just a charity,

0:13:10.600 --> 0:13:12.800
<v Speaker 1>there's nothing wrong. You're nothing wrong that's going on at all.

0:13:13.920 --> 0:13:20.040
<v Speaker 1>Absolute nonsense, total and complete nonsense. But let's say that

0:13:20.040 --> 0:13:24.080
<v Speaker 1>there was information that there was a real quid pro quo,

0:13:25.040 --> 0:13:27.719
<v Speaker 1>you know what, for what corruption, and the Russians had

0:13:27.760 --> 0:13:29.920
<v Speaker 1>it and they were going to give it to Trump.

0:13:32.000 --> 0:13:33.720
<v Speaker 1>You could say, well, buck, he has to take it

0:13:33.720 --> 0:13:36.880
<v Speaker 1>to the FBI. Okay, But is he still not allowed

0:13:36.880 --> 0:13:40.160
<v Speaker 1>to use the information? Does he have to wait to

0:13:40.160 --> 0:13:42.440
<v Speaker 1>see if the FBI decides to bring charges or not.

0:13:44.600 --> 0:13:48.840
<v Speaker 1>This opposition research. This is well, you know, what's fair

0:13:48.960 --> 0:13:51.199
<v Speaker 1>is fair. What information you have is information you have?

0:13:52.280 --> 0:13:55.040
<v Speaker 1>Are is the expectation now that if a foreign government

0:13:55.040 --> 0:13:58.400
<v Speaker 1>had information about criminal activity or corruption of a US

0:13:58.600 --> 0:14:02.840
<v Speaker 1>political candidate, that the opponent of that candidate is supposed

0:14:02.840 --> 0:14:04.600
<v Speaker 1>to sit on it and not say anything because it

0:14:04.600 --> 0:14:07.440
<v Speaker 1>comes from foreign source. Why if it's true, why would

0:14:07.480 --> 0:14:11.200
<v Speaker 1>you do that? These rules that they're pretending to believe

0:14:11.240 --> 0:14:16.320
<v Speaker 1>in don't make any sense. They don't make any sense.

0:14:17.679 --> 0:14:20.280
<v Speaker 1>You got all these DC types that want to sound like, oh,

0:14:20.320 --> 0:14:21.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, because this is an opportunity to do a

0:14:21.920 --> 0:14:25.520
<v Speaker 1>lot of you know, virtue signaling about what a patriot

0:14:25.560 --> 0:14:27.280
<v Speaker 1>you are. And I'm Jelova. Oh I would never take

0:14:27.320 --> 0:14:33.520
<v Speaker 1>foreign information. Yeah right, sure, people journalists taken. Okay, here's

0:14:33.520 --> 0:14:35.280
<v Speaker 1>another for those who are saying, no, no, buck, you

0:14:35.320 --> 0:14:38.360
<v Speaker 1>don't get it, you don't take you don't take information

0:14:38.480 --> 0:14:42.360
<v Speaker 1>from foreign government use it against your plut Okay, let's

0:14:42.360 --> 0:14:44.520
<v Speaker 1>say the foreign government. Let's just move around some of

0:14:44.520 --> 0:14:47.480
<v Speaker 1>the pieces that are already on the chessboard here. So

0:14:48.240 --> 0:14:53.920
<v Speaker 1>Russian government source tells an American journalist, Oh, this is

0:14:54.000 --> 0:14:56.160
<v Speaker 1>kind of like the Dacier, isn't it Russian government source

0:14:56.160 --> 0:14:59.000
<v Speaker 1>tells an American journalist, Hey, you know, it turns out

0:14:59.040 --> 0:15:02.960
<v Speaker 1>that you know, Hill got got paid off ten million

0:15:02.960 --> 0:15:05.760
<v Speaker 1>dollars in an unmarked account for her and Bill to

0:15:05.840 --> 0:15:08.000
<v Speaker 1>change their stance on uranium one. I mean, just straight

0:15:08.600 --> 0:15:12.000
<v Speaker 1>illegal as it gets corruption, right, a straight up payoff,

0:15:12.720 --> 0:15:16.480
<v Speaker 1>tells that journalist. That journalist then contacts somebody in the

0:15:16.480 --> 0:15:18.680
<v Speaker 1>Trump campaign and says, yeah, I've got word from this.

0:15:18.680 --> 0:15:21.640
<v Speaker 1>This looks real. I've got word from this Russian source

0:15:22.360 --> 0:15:26.640
<v Speaker 1>that the Russian government prosecutors saying that you know, Hillary

0:15:26.640 --> 0:15:30.480
<v Speaker 1>Clinton took all this money and you know it looks real.

0:15:31.040 --> 0:15:34.440
<v Speaker 1>Is that campaign person? Because the information comes through an

0:15:34.440 --> 0:15:37.560
<v Speaker 1>American source as an intermediary, but it's originally Russian, do

0:15:37.640 --> 0:15:42.400
<v Speaker 1>they have an obligation to not do anything with it? Oh,

0:15:42.440 --> 0:15:44.840
<v Speaker 1>it's okay if it goes through a pass through. Guess what.

0:15:44.880 --> 0:15:46.800
<v Speaker 1>That makes it pretty easy to get the information from

0:15:46.800 --> 0:15:49.640
<v Speaker 1>any foreign government to any campaign official. Just put it

0:15:49.680 --> 0:15:55.360
<v Speaker 1>through a journalist as it pass through. This is ridiculous.

0:15:55.120 --> 0:15:59.400
<v Speaker 1>It does not hold together. This is all narrative. It's

0:15:59.440 --> 0:16:04.560
<v Speaker 1>all story building from the anti Trump resistance. When you

0:16:04.600 --> 0:16:08.760
<v Speaker 1>poke at this, it falls apart. And if you thought

0:16:08.760 --> 0:16:13.480
<v Speaker 1>for one second that they intended to leave by their

0:16:13.480 --> 0:16:16.960
<v Speaker 1>own rules. Remember Adam Schiff, one of the most dishonest

0:16:16.960 --> 0:16:19.600
<v Speaker 1>and sanctimonious of all the anti trumpers in the Congress.

0:16:19.840 --> 0:16:24.560
<v Speaker 1>Remember what happened when he had Russian comedians Vladimir Kiztsov

0:16:24.640 --> 0:16:29.000
<v Speaker 1>and Alexei Stolarov call him up pretending to have information.

0:16:30.240 --> 0:16:33.480
<v Speaker 1>We have the audio. Let's listen. What did democrats do?

0:16:33.720 --> 0:16:36.400
<v Speaker 1>I mean, what do they really do when they think

0:16:36.400 --> 0:16:39.240
<v Speaker 1>they might get information from a foreign source that's damaging

0:16:39.680 --> 0:16:42.280
<v Speaker 1>to their political opponents? Play clip five. Oh that you

0:16:42.400 --> 0:16:47.120
<v Speaker 1>work for investigation regarding Trump and Russian governments? Yes, well,

0:16:47.120 --> 0:16:52.960
<v Speaker 1>else some important information about it, and that is documented

0:16:53.000 --> 0:16:55.800
<v Speaker 1>as well in mature as you want to provide to us. Yes,

0:16:56.080 --> 0:17:00.200
<v Speaker 1>So Bussava met with Trump in New York at some

0:17:00.240 --> 0:17:05.639
<v Speaker 1>point after the twenty thirteen Miss Universe pageant. Absolutely, and

0:17:06.000 --> 0:17:12.879
<v Speaker 1>she got compromising materials on tramp after their short relations. Okay,

0:17:12.880 --> 0:17:17.080
<v Speaker 1>and what's the nature of the compromise. Well, there were

0:17:17.080 --> 0:17:21.879
<v Speaker 1>pictures of naked Trump, and so Putin was made aware

0:17:23.000 --> 0:17:27.200
<v Speaker 1>of the availability of the compromising material. Yes, of course

0:17:27.600 --> 0:17:31.639
<v Speaker 1>Buzza shared those materials with sub checking sub sharct shares

0:17:31.960 --> 0:17:35.320
<v Speaker 1>those materials with Putin because she's a god daughter of

0:17:35.400 --> 0:17:41.200
<v Speaker 1>Putin and Puttin decided to press on Trump. Does it

0:17:41.280 --> 0:17:44.840
<v Speaker 1>sound like Adam Ship's like, whoa, whoa, Hey, I don't

0:17:44.840 --> 0:17:47.880
<v Speaker 1>want any of this, compromise the word he used, their

0:17:47.920 --> 0:17:50.119
<v Speaker 1>compromising information on Trump. I want to hear any of this.

0:17:51.000 --> 0:17:52.600
<v Speaker 1>It's not the kind of stuff that we talk about

0:17:52.600 --> 0:17:54.880
<v Speaker 1>here or America. We don't do that stuff. We don't,

0:17:55.560 --> 0:17:57.080
<v Speaker 1>of course not. He wants to know all about it.

0:17:57.880 --> 0:17:59.960
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, sure, maybe he'd call the FBI, does anything

0:18:00.040 --> 0:18:02.040
<v Speaker 1>that he wouldn't also call the Washington Post right after

0:18:02.080 --> 0:18:06.000
<v Speaker 1>that if he thought this was real, and tell them

0:18:06.000 --> 0:18:07.399
<v Speaker 1>that he's got a great story for them and they

0:18:07.400 --> 0:18:08.639
<v Speaker 1>just have to sort of dig a little bit or

0:18:08.640 --> 0:18:12.399
<v Speaker 1>help point them in the right direction. Folks, we're not

0:18:12.440 --> 0:18:15.040
<v Speaker 1>all little kids here. We know how this game in

0:18:15.080 --> 0:18:19.440
<v Speaker 1>politics has played. The Democrats play it dirtier than anybody else.

0:18:19.640 --> 0:18:22.600
<v Speaker 1>They play without principles, they play without honor, And so

0:18:22.600 --> 0:18:25.240
<v Speaker 1>when they turn around as they're doing today and try

0:18:25.240 --> 0:18:28.879
<v Speaker 1>to wag a finger and scold everybody on the other side,

0:18:28.920 --> 0:18:31.920
<v Speaker 1>the Republicans and Trump for not playing according to their

0:18:31.920 --> 0:18:36.879
<v Speaker 1>own constantly changing and murky and bizarre rules, you know

0:18:36.880 --> 0:18:41.800
<v Speaker 1>what we should do, ignore them because they're full of it.

0:18:42.359 --> 0:18:46.280
<v Speaker 1>Some also defending the president as well, including Senator Tom

0:18:46.359 --> 0:18:49.720
<v Speaker 1>kill Us of North Carolina, instead making it pointing it

0:18:50.040 --> 0:18:52.879
<v Speaker 1>Hillary Clinton and her effort to try to get dirt

0:18:53.119 --> 0:18:56.480
<v Speaker 1>on the Russia and the Trump campaign by hiring the

0:18:56.480 --> 0:19:00.520
<v Speaker 1>opposition research firm Fusion GPS, which of course attracted with

0:19:00.600 --> 0:19:04.040
<v Speaker 1>Christopher Steele, the former British agent, to try to look

0:19:04.080 --> 0:19:07.359
<v Speaker 1>into potential ties between the Trump campaign and Russia. But

0:19:07.400 --> 0:19:13.080
<v Speaker 1>those two situations not entirely synonymous. Get potested emails and

0:19:13.160 --> 0:19:16.800
<v Speaker 1>leak those out those that's much different than what was

0:19:16.840 --> 0:19:20.080
<v Speaker 1>happening with the Steel situation with the Steele dossier. But nevertheless,

0:19:20.080 --> 0:19:22.560
<v Speaker 1>you're hearing Republicans make that case as a lot of

0:19:22.600 --> 0:19:24.959
<v Speaker 1>them trying to defend what the president is doing. Right.

0:19:25.080 --> 0:19:28.480
<v Speaker 1>But these two things, the dossier and what Trump is

0:19:28.480 --> 0:19:32.920
<v Speaker 1>talking about here, these two things are not the same. Yeah,

0:19:32.960 --> 0:19:39.719
<v Speaker 1>they're not the exact same jets, but they're pretty dark close.

0:19:41.080 --> 0:19:43.360
<v Speaker 1>But this is a classic CNN thing. This is this

0:19:43.400 --> 0:19:45.480
<v Speaker 1>is what you hear over there all the time. They'll

0:19:45.520 --> 0:19:49.280
<v Speaker 1>they'll say something like it's a really profound statement, and

0:19:49.480 --> 0:19:51.119
<v Speaker 1>when you think about it, it's one of the dumbest

0:19:51.119 --> 0:19:57.120
<v Speaker 1>things you've ever heard. Well, the dossier and what happened

0:19:57.200 --> 0:20:01.920
<v Speaker 1>here with the Trump campaign and meeting at Trump at

0:20:02.240 --> 0:20:07.439
<v Speaker 1>Trump Tower. It's not the same, right, but the same

0:20:08.000 --> 0:20:12.440
<v Speaker 1>principle should be involved, the same standards should be applied.

0:20:13.960 --> 0:20:18.880
<v Speaker 1>I really wonder is CNN staffing itself at the most

0:20:18.880 --> 0:20:22.359
<v Speaker 1>senior levels with people who are just not all that bright,

0:20:23.200 --> 0:20:25.639
<v Speaker 1>or who are so dishonest but in love with their

0:20:25.680 --> 0:20:31.520
<v Speaker 1>own image and their overstuffed paychecks that they're willing to

0:20:31.560 --> 0:20:34.919
<v Speaker 1>look stupid in front of smart and honest people and

0:20:35.080 --> 0:20:37.679
<v Speaker 1>not care. I don't have an answer. I don't know

0:20:37.720 --> 0:20:41.560
<v Speaker 1>which it is right now. There is no good answer

0:20:41.600 --> 0:20:47.960
<v Speaker 1>to the question. Why does why do the foreign efforts

0:20:48.040 --> 0:20:50.640
<v Speaker 1>of the DNC and the Hillary Clinton campaign not get

0:20:51.600 --> 0:20:56.840
<v Speaker 1>not get called foreign interference? But the Trump campaign taking

0:20:56.840 --> 0:21:01.200
<v Speaker 1>a meeting where there was no interference. That's another important

0:21:01.440 --> 0:21:05.720
<v Speaker 1>that's another important component of this. The Trump meeting was,

0:21:05.960 --> 0:21:10.760
<v Speaker 1>at worst, you could say, an attempted acceptance of information

0:21:10.800 --> 0:21:14.720
<v Speaker 1>from a foreign source, attempted but without success. That's the

0:21:14.760 --> 0:21:17.439
<v Speaker 1>worst thing you could say. It had no impact on anything.

0:21:17.440 --> 0:21:19.639
<v Speaker 1>The Veslant Sky meeting was a nothing, a zero, a

0:21:19.720 --> 0:21:26.520
<v Speaker 1>nothing burger. The Christopher Steel dossier, relying on a foreign

0:21:26.520 --> 0:21:32.560
<v Speaker 1>intelligence operative and foreign Russian government sources for that dossier

0:21:33.640 --> 0:21:38.280
<v Speaker 1>was a remarkably effective piece of disinformation. The effects we

0:21:38.320 --> 0:21:42.679
<v Speaker 1>are still living with to this day. So, on the

0:21:42.720 --> 0:21:45.560
<v Speaker 1>one hand, you have something that was effectively meaningless but

0:21:45.720 --> 0:21:50.359
<v Speaker 1>has been magnified into a huge problem, which is the

0:21:50.400 --> 0:21:54.119
<v Speaker 1>Trump Tower meeting and the Trump campaign people talking to Veslandskaya.

0:21:55.200 --> 0:22:00.840
<v Speaker 1>On the other hand, you have an incredibly successful disinformation

0:22:01.359 --> 0:22:06.480
<v Speaker 1>and smear campaign using foreign sources, paying a foreigner, relying

0:22:06.520 --> 0:22:11.639
<v Speaker 1>on foreign government information. But when you point this out,

0:22:12.000 --> 0:22:16.119
<v Speaker 1>libs just they realize their best defenses to act like

0:22:16.200 --> 0:22:19.400
<v Speaker 1>this is they're a bunch of total morons, Like they

0:22:19.440 --> 0:22:26.680
<v Speaker 1>can understand why these two things being treated incongruously, Why

0:22:26.720 --> 0:22:36.080
<v Speaker 1>these two matters receiving entirely separate treatment, Why that's incredibly disturbing.

0:22:38.000 --> 0:22:40.360
<v Speaker 1>It undermined that their whole premise, they're trying to really

0:22:40.400 --> 0:22:42.880
<v Speaker 1>get this going all this may be the thing they

0:22:42.880 --> 0:22:44.920
<v Speaker 1>believe that leads to impeachment right now, you know, and

0:22:45.000 --> 0:22:46.920
<v Speaker 1>now they'll try this, and you know, next week it'll

0:22:46.960 --> 0:22:49.680
<v Speaker 1>be the firing of Mueller, I'm sorry, or the attempt

0:22:49.680 --> 0:22:52.399
<v Speaker 1>to fire Muller by with McGann, it'll be obstruction again,

0:22:52.560 --> 0:22:54.520
<v Speaker 1>and the week after that it'll be They'll just keep

0:22:54.560 --> 0:22:56.919
<v Speaker 1>coming back to these and they lose on the issue,

0:22:56.960 --> 0:22:59.600
<v Speaker 1>they go away, they come back again, and they hope

0:22:59.640 --> 0:23:03.119
<v Speaker 1>that they can break through and they'll tire out their opponents.

0:23:03.119 --> 0:23:05.800
<v Speaker 1>They'll they'll exhaust people like me and you who don't

0:23:05.840 --> 0:23:10.280
<v Speaker 1>believe their bull and eventually they'll get their way. Their

0:23:10.320 --> 0:23:14.640
<v Speaker 1>plan is to just be engaged in relentless propaganda. That's

0:23:14.640 --> 0:23:21.280
<v Speaker 1>what this is, a relentless propaganda campaign. That's why when

0:23:21.280 --> 0:23:26.840
<v Speaker 1>they're saying that these are different things, as though that's yeah,

0:23:26.840 --> 0:23:31.640
<v Speaker 1>of course they're different things. But the key similarity foreign

0:23:31.920 --> 0:23:36.920
<v Speaker 1>information used to the benefit of a presidential campaign. That

0:23:37.040 --> 0:23:45.159
<v Speaker 1>is irrefutable. That is a function of fact. So given

0:23:45.200 --> 0:23:50.920
<v Speaker 1>that that is an irrefutable function of fact, why doesn't

0:23:50.920 --> 0:23:55.159
<v Speaker 1>the press have to grapple with this? Why are Democrats

0:23:55.160 --> 0:23:57.560
<v Speaker 1>being asked all the time to explain this? How is

0:23:57.600 --> 0:24:00.760
<v Speaker 1>one foreign interference but the other is not? Why does

0:24:00.760 --> 0:24:02.440
<v Speaker 1>the media get so upset about one and out the other?

0:24:02.520 --> 0:24:05.840
<v Speaker 1>But this is like what I told you yesterday. Bill

0:24:05.880 --> 0:24:08.480
<v Speaker 1>Clinton got a bigger check for one speech from a

0:24:08.560 --> 0:24:10.800
<v Speaker 1>Russian bank that was all tied up with oligarchs in

0:24:10.840 --> 0:24:14.520
<v Speaker 1>the Russian government. He got more money from one country, Russia,

0:24:14.600 --> 0:24:18.199
<v Speaker 1>for one speech than has been spent at every Trump

0:24:18.240 --> 0:24:22.000
<v Speaker 1>property combined over the course of two years by twenty

0:24:22.040 --> 0:24:25.760
<v Speaker 1>two different foreign governments. And you see peace after peace

0:24:25.800 --> 0:24:30.080
<v Speaker 1>about the emolument's clause and how they're buying Trump by

0:24:30.119 --> 0:24:34.560
<v Speaker 1>spending money on burghers at his hotel, and nothing on

0:24:34.600 --> 0:24:38.439
<v Speaker 1>how Clinton was selling his wife's office. That's what he

0:24:38.520 --> 0:24:43.159
<v Speaker 1>was doing. This is extremely serious. The stark reality, the

0:24:43.280 --> 0:24:46.119
<v Speaker 1>sad truth, is that we have a president in the

0:24:46.200 --> 0:24:51.040
<v Speaker 1>United States who's not playing on America's team. He is

0:24:51.560 --> 0:24:57.639
<v Speaker 1>invited yet again foreign interference in our presidential elections. He

0:24:57.880 --> 0:25:01.200
<v Speaker 1>said that and finally admitted in fact that he sees

0:25:01.240 --> 0:25:04.760
<v Speaker 1>nothing wrong with collusion, which is in fact what happens

0:25:04.760 --> 0:25:08.280
<v Speaker 1>when you accept information from a foreign entity. And he

0:25:08.359 --> 0:25:11.280
<v Speaker 1>said in effect that he'd do it again. He sees

0:25:11.320 --> 0:25:15.200
<v Speaker 1>no problem with a president of the United States being

0:25:15.280 --> 0:25:19.240
<v Speaker 1>beholden to a foreign power, even a foreign hostile power,

0:25:19.280 --> 0:25:23.919
<v Speaker 1>as inevitably one would be if you accepted information and

0:25:24.000 --> 0:25:29.520
<v Speaker 1>support from a foreign government. What a pile of bull

0:25:30.240 --> 0:25:35.280
<v Speaker 1>from former Obama National security advisor Susan Rice, remember her,

0:25:36.240 --> 0:25:41.240
<v Speaker 1>Remember Susan Rice, everybody, it was a spontaneous reaction to

0:25:41.320 --> 0:25:47.160
<v Speaker 1>a video. That's what caused the death of for brave

0:25:47.200 --> 0:25:50.159
<v Speaker 1>Americans that night in Benghazi, Libya. That's right, it was

0:25:50.200 --> 0:25:54.080
<v Speaker 1>a spontaneous video. Wasn't a terrorist attack? Can't use the

0:25:54.119 --> 0:26:00.280
<v Speaker 1>T word, not not you know, right before and action

0:26:00.480 --> 0:26:02.600
<v Speaker 1>is about to happen, and Obama is up on the

0:26:02.600 --> 0:26:04.800
<v Speaker 1>ballot and he says that General Motors is alive, been

0:26:04.880 --> 0:26:07.359
<v Speaker 1>Ladden is dead, and he's basically defeated al Kaya. You

0:26:07.359 --> 0:26:12.119
<v Speaker 1>can't use the T word, can't say terrorists. But Susan

0:26:12.200 --> 0:26:15.560
<v Speaker 1>Rice has come back out here to spread the Democrat

0:26:15.640 --> 0:26:19.480
<v Speaker 1>talking points. It's extremely serious. A president who is not

0:26:20.119 --> 0:26:29.359
<v Speaker 1>playing on America's team. What a disgusting, unfair, ridiculous, disgraceful

0:26:29.480 --> 0:26:35.240
<v Speaker 1>thing for a former senior bureaucrat to say, not playing

0:26:35.240 --> 0:26:37.920
<v Speaker 1>on America's team. Meanwhile, a lot of America seems I

0:26:37.960 --> 0:26:40.600
<v Speaker 1>think the president's doing just just a great job of

0:26:40.760 --> 0:26:44.720
<v Speaker 1>playing on our team. Yeah, I'd like to know what

0:26:44.800 --> 0:26:49.400
<v Speaker 1>Susan Rice thinks about Hillary Clinton accepting for an information.

0:26:49.480 --> 0:26:52.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean, this has now become you know, this has

0:26:52.840 --> 0:26:57.439
<v Speaker 1>now become a question of are people just going to

0:26:57.480 --> 0:27:00.720
<v Speaker 1>actively deny reality or not. And I think there's unfortunately

0:27:00.720 --> 0:27:06.800
<v Speaker 1>a lot of them. Will this Susan Rice little monologue

0:27:06.800 --> 0:27:08.760
<v Speaker 1>here about the president and not playing an America's team

0:27:08.760 --> 0:27:12.240
<v Speaker 1>because he's inviting foreign interference. He didn't invite foreign interference

0:27:12.240 --> 0:27:13.679
<v Speaker 1>in our election. He just said, Look, I mean, I

0:27:13.720 --> 0:27:15.600
<v Speaker 1>foubody's gonna tell me they got something. They gotta tell me.

0:27:15.640 --> 0:27:19.719
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna talk to them. How could this even be policed?

0:27:19.760 --> 0:27:23.600
<v Speaker 1>How could this be adjudicated? Now you have others running

0:27:23.600 --> 0:27:26.119
<v Speaker 1>around saying, oh, you know Mark Warner and the Senate

0:27:26.160 --> 0:27:30.160
<v Speaker 1>in Capitol Hill, Well you know we've got to make

0:27:30.320 --> 0:27:33.160
<v Speaker 1>laws to prevent this from happening. Where you can get

0:27:33.160 --> 0:27:37.600
<v Speaker 1>a thing of value information? Okay, So if you meet

0:27:37.600 --> 0:27:40.720
<v Speaker 1>with a foreigner who tells you I read this really

0:27:40.720 --> 0:27:44.800
<v Speaker 1>great book on US Russia relations, you should check it

0:27:44.840 --> 0:27:46.679
<v Speaker 1>out too. Is that a thing of value that might

0:27:46.720 --> 0:27:50.440
<v Speaker 1>be a valuable insight? Do you have to report that? Now?

0:27:52.280 --> 0:27:54.760
<v Speaker 1>Where does this stop and start? Who makes the decisions

0:27:54.800 --> 0:27:58.879
<v Speaker 1>about what's valuable information versus what's just hearsay, what's just

0:27:58.920 --> 0:28:04.480
<v Speaker 1>being passed along for no apparent or clear reason. Everyone

0:28:04.520 --> 0:28:10.199
<v Speaker 1>now is supposed to think that Natalia Vizelnetskaya in the

0:28:10.240 --> 0:28:14.480
<v Speaker 1>Trump Tower meeting was because she said that this is

0:28:14.480 --> 0:28:16.600
<v Speaker 1>part of the Russian government's you know, support for the

0:28:16.600 --> 0:28:19.639
<v Speaker 1>Trump candidacy. That that was the case. Maybe she was

0:28:19.680 --> 0:28:23.120
<v Speaker 1>just a whacko, or maybe she had really really important

0:28:23.119 --> 0:28:25.440
<v Speaker 1>information that would have changed the course of American history.

0:28:25.480 --> 0:28:29.080
<v Speaker 1>That was true. You know, one thing that gets skipped

0:28:29.119 --> 0:28:34.200
<v Speaker 1>skipped by with all of this is that the wiki

0:28:34.280 --> 0:28:38.240
<v Speaker 1>leagues posted information from from Podesta and the DNC accounts.

0:28:38.240 --> 0:28:42.320
<v Speaker 1>It was all true, you know, it was all real information.

0:28:42.360 --> 0:28:47.560
<v Speaker 1>It wasn't disinformation. And don't we I mean, don't we

0:28:47.600 --> 0:28:49.480
<v Speaker 1>get to factor into this then you know, maybe we

0:28:49.480 --> 0:28:54.000
<v Speaker 1>should know some of this stuff. Journalists, as a matter

0:28:54.040 --> 0:28:57.360
<v Speaker 1>of course, as part of their jobs, try to solicit

0:28:57.560 --> 0:29:00.560
<v Speaker 1>classified and in fact illegal information for them to have

0:29:00.680 --> 0:29:08.040
<v Speaker 1>or possess, all under this idea that they need to

0:29:08.080 --> 0:29:11.040
<v Speaker 1>inform the American public about it, and they take it

0:29:11.120 --> 0:29:13.760
<v Speaker 1>upon themselves to decide what should and should not really

0:29:13.760 --> 0:29:18.640
<v Speaker 1>be classified. And you know what, this state of America's

0:29:18.640 --> 0:29:22.280
<v Speaker 1>knowledge about what the government thinks should be secret ease

0:29:22.360 --> 0:29:27.560
<v Speaker 1>at any given time. But oh, that's right, a president

0:29:27.600 --> 0:29:30.320
<v Speaker 1>who's not playing on America's team, she says, and that's

0:29:30.320 --> 0:29:33.320
<v Speaker 1>why they're they're they're waiting, you know that they're throwing

0:29:33.360 --> 0:29:34.880
<v Speaker 1>all this stuff out there, and that's what today We

0:29:34.920 --> 0:29:37.840
<v Speaker 1>know what today really was about. It's it's more than

0:29:37.840 --> 0:29:43.400
<v Speaker 1>anything else. Why Why was Stephanopolis standing? Why was that

0:29:43.400 --> 0:29:47.080
<v Speaker 1>that little smarmy smurf allowed to do in any for

0:29:47.120 --> 0:29:49.120
<v Speaker 1>the president where he's standing and looking down at him?

0:29:49.160 --> 0:29:51.320
<v Speaker 1>Did the people working with the president not understand what

0:29:51.400 --> 0:29:54.959
<v Speaker 1>those optics were supposed to be. It's the President United States.

0:29:55.160 --> 0:29:59.840
<v Speaker 1>Little little Stephanopolis, little mini Stepan Stephanous should be sitting,

0:30:00.760 --> 0:30:02.400
<v Speaker 1>and I was gonna say at eye level, you know,

0:30:02.400 --> 0:30:04.160
<v Speaker 1>he should be. He should be sitting and looking across

0:30:04.160 --> 0:30:08.680
<v Speaker 1>the president at about naval level, and that's how the

0:30:08.720 --> 0:30:10.600
<v Speaker 1>interview should go. He shouldn't be allowed to stand and

0:30:10.680 --> 0:30:12.720
<v Speaker 1>look down at the president while he seated. That just

0:30:12.720 --> 0:30:15.240
<v Speaker 1>strikes me as bad optics. I mean, I'm sure the

0:30:15.240 --> 0:30:17.520
<v Speaker 1>President obviously allowed it to happen, but I think that

0:30:17.600 --> 0:30:20.640
<v Speaker 1>was a mistake. And he asked the question that's been

0:30:20.640 --> 0:30:23.760
<v Speaker 1>asked so many times before. There's nothing new about this.

0:30:23.760 --> 0:30:25.360
<v Speaker 1>This is what they're gonna do there. They're gonna keep

0:30:26.280 --> 0:30:28.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, they're gonna keep cycling. Mike is saying that

0:30:28.920 --> 0:30:32.240
<v Speaker 1>if Stephanopolis sat down, he'd be out of frame one

0:30:32.440 --> 0:30:34.600
<v Speaker 1>and two. Maybe his you know, his little legs would

0:30:34.600 --> 0:30:36.080
<v Speaker 1>be dangling on the end of the chair, which is

0:30:36.120 --> 0:30:38.280
<v Speaker 1>not that's not a power look for a little steff.

0:30:38.360 --> 0:30:41.320
<v Speaker 1>I've seen little Stephie. He's a little, tiny fellow. You know.

0:30:41.320 --> 0:30:43.680
<v Speaker 1>He's also, from what I'm told, not a nice not

0:30:43.760 --> 0:30:46.400
<v Speaker 1>a nice guy, and a former Clinton operative who's allowed

0:30:46.400 --> 0:30:51.240
<v Speaker 1>to be a journalist, an objective journalist. That people still

0:30:51.280 --> 0:30:53.840
<v Speaker 1>say this stuff. I just want to laugh in their faces.

0:30:53.880 --> 0:30:57.560
<v Speaker 1>They really believe this, They think that this is that

0:30:57.680 --> 0:31:00.480
<v Speaker 1>anybody should believe this, That Stephanopolis is not playing for it.

0:31:00.600 --> 0:31:02.720
<v Speaker 1>If you think Stephanopolis is not playing for a team,

0:31:02.720 --> 0:31:04.560
<v Speaker 1>you're not smart enough to vote. And I wonder if

0:31:04.600 --> 0:31:06.680
<v Speaker 1>you're smart enough to really like take care of yourself

0:31:06.760 --> 0:31:09.800
<v Speaker 1>and you know, cook your own food. I mean, I

0:31:10.120 --> 0:31:12.880
<v Speaker 1>really have questions. Essentially what you're saying there, Buck, I

0:31:12.920 --> 0:31:15.080
<v Speaker 1>think is really right. That really wasn't an interview with

0:31:15.120 --> 0:31:18.160
<v Speaker 1>George Stephanopolis. It was an interview with the Clinton's. You know, Yes,

0:31:18.440 --> 0:31:22.360
<v Speaker 1>basically that's what he was. And so why do we

0:31:22.360 --> 0:31:24.320
<v Speaker 1>have to pretend like it's anything other than that? And

0:31:24.400 --> 0:31:26.400
<v Speaker 1>why would the White House go along with this? But

0:31:26.520 --> 0:31:29.880
<v Speaker 1>do we know why they allowed the strange setup of

0:31:29.960 --> 0:31:32.960
<v Speaker 1>having Papadopolis standing and looking down at the president when

0:31:32.960 --> 0:31:34.760
<v Speaker 1>he's in his chair. I just thought that was such

0:31:35.400 --> 0:31:39.440
<v Speaker 1>a weird decision. Did we see any any scuttlebut about that?

0:31:39.880 --> 0:31:41.920
<v Speaker 1>I didn't see anything. But it's your I don't really

0:31:41.920 --> 0:31:43.600
<v Speaker 1>actually even think about you just said it's a really

0:31:43.640 --> 0:31:45.840
<v Speaker 1>good point. Yeah, man, Look, will you go back you

0:31:45.840 --> 0:31:47.560
<v Speaker 1>look at that video. He's like looking it's like he's

0:31:47.600 --> 0:31:51.200
<v Speaker 1>scolding the President United States, a little tiny Stephanopolis. You know.

0:31:51.240 --> 0:31:53.720
<v Speaker 1>It's like he's he's telling the President that he wants

0:31:53.720 --> 0:31:57.200
<v Speaker 1>to ride him around the office like a pony, which

0:31:57.200 --> 0:32:02.400
<v Speaker 1>he probably could. Yeah, get a little saddle, little Steffie. Hey, hey,

0:32:03.240 --> 0:32:06.320
<v Speaker 1>pay me one hundred million dollars. I'm such a good journalist. Hey,

0:32:07.400 --> 0:32:08.880
<v Speaker 1>But this is what this is what they're doing, folks.

0:32:08.920 --> 0:32:13.520
<v Speaker 1>They're trying to you know, they're they're trying to create

0:32:14.560 --> 0:32:17.960
<v Speaker 1>some momentum for impeachment. And so they they put out

0:32:17.960 --> 0:32:21.239
<v Speaker 1>these different versions. They'll say different versions of really the

0:32:21.360 --> 0:32:24.880
<v Speaker 1>same thing, you know, and they want to say, oh,

0:32:24.960 --> 0:32:27.200
<v Speaker 1>what gets traction, what gets people excited, what's going to

0:32:27.280 --> 0:32:30.160
<v Speaker 1>get people fired up so that they'll go along with

0:32:30.240 --> 0:32:34.360
<v Speaker 1>our our impeachment efforts here. And uh, you know, Nancy

0:32:34.400 --> 0:32:38.160
<v Speaker 1>Pelosi is trying to you know, she's the one who's

0:32:38.160 --> 0:32:40.920
<v Speaker 1>trying to see what fits here, and because I think

0:32:40.960 --> 0:32:44.200
<v Speaker 1>she knows that this is risky and her future power

0:32:44.280 --> 0:32:47.160
<v Speaker 1>and her time to Speaker of the House is at risk,

0:32:47.200 --> 0:32:49.120
<v Speaker 1>which matters to her more than anything else based on

0:32:49.160 --> 0:32:53.520
<v Speaker 1>the decision making here about whether to impeach or not. First,

0:32:53.640 --> 0:33:00.040
<v Speaker 1>let's get onto Nancy's response to Trump play clibit. You

0:33:00.160 --> 0:33:02.480
<v Speaker 1>make it sound as if it could be a common thing.

0:33:02.600 --> 0:33:06.160
<v Speaker 1>It is not. And what the President said last night

0:33:06.200 --> 0:33:10.880
<v Speaker 1>shows clearly, once again, over and over again that he

0:33:10.960 --> 0:33:13.560
<v Speaker 1>does not know the difference between right and wrong. And

0:33:13.600 --> 0:33:15.840
<v Speaker 1>that's probably the nicest thing I can say about him,

0:33:16.160 --> 0:33:18.640
<v Speaker 1>because if he doesn't know the difference, it could explain

0:33:19.000 --> 0:33:23.160
<v Speaker 1>some of his ridiculous behavior. And now to invite further

0:33:23.320 --> 0:33:30.040
<v Speaker 1>involvement of foreign governments into our election, He's not inviting it.

0:33:30.200 --> 0:33:32.120
<v Speaker 1>This is just not true. If what he says is

0:33:32.240 --> 0:33:37.360
<v Speaker 1>so bad, can they just accurately refer to what he

0:33:37.440 --> 0:33:40.680
<v Speaker 1>said and not make crap up? Could they just do that?

0:33:41.680 --> 0:33:45.520
<v Speaker 1>Is that asking too much? He wasn't saying yeah, please

0:33:45.840 --> 0:33:48.160
<v Speaker 1>foreign government to the world, semi all the information you can.

0:33:48.720 --> 0:33:50.800
<v Speaker 1>But Pelosi has to know that. But she also knows

0:33:50.800 --> 0:33:53.160
<v Speaker 1>that ultimately this is about the eye word, this is

0:33:53.160 --> 0:33:56.800
<v Speaker 1>about impeachment. It is all political. And because it is

0:33:56.880 --> 0:34:00.080
<v Speaker 1>so clearly political, you know that what Pelosi's going to

0:34:00.120 --> 0:34:03.840
<v Speaker 1>do is say, oh, but this is not politics at all.

0:34:04.040 --> 0:34:10.480
<v Speaker 1>This is classic Nancy gas lighting play nine. As we

0:34:10.560 --> 0:34:13.400
<v Speaker 1>go down this path to seek the truth for the

0:34:13.440 --> 0:34:18.200
<v Speaker 1>American people and to hold the president accountable, it has

0:34:18.280 --> 0:34:22.799
<v Speaker 1>nothing to do with politics or any campaigns. It has

0:34:22.920 --> 0:34:26.400
<v Speaker 1>everything to do if I may excuse me answer your question,

0:34:26.640 --> 0:34:31.200
<v Speaker 1>it is everything to do with patriotism, not partisanship. What

0:34:31.239 --> 0:34:36.799
<v Speaker 1>we want to do is have a methodical approach to

0:34:36.920 --> 0:34:40.040
<v Speaker 1>the path that we are on, and this will be

0:34:40.280 --> 0:34:46.560
<v Speaker 1>included in that. And no one is above the law. Yeah, sure,

0:34:46.840 --> 0:34:50.000
<v Speaker 1>who believes Nancy there? This is about getting the truth

0:34:50.000 --> 0:34:52.279
<v Speaker 1>the American people. Really, what are they going to have

0:34:52.360 --> 0:34:55.360
<v Speaker 1>Muller testify on Capitol Hill? Let's just start with that.

0:34:56.080 --> 0:34:57.680
<v Speaker 1>They want the answers to a ballet, They want the

0:34:57.680 --> 0:35:01.840
<v Speaker 1>truth to a bally that the single moost obvious witness

0:35:01.960 --> 0:35:04.279
<v Speaker 1>that they could call in this entire thing. They have

0:35:04.360 --> 0:35:08.000
<v Speaker 1>no interest in calling. Anybody want to take a stab

0:35:08.040 --> 0:35:10.680
<v Speaker 1>at how that's possible. Anyone want to try to tell

0:35:10.719 --> 0:35:14.080
<v Speaker 1>me what's going on with that one? Oh you mean

0:35:14.120 --> 0:35:16.480
<v Speaker 1>this is all political and Nancy's a joke and a liar.

0:35:16.520 --> 0:35:21.160
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, that's right. There we go, get ready for folks.

0:35:21.160 --> 0:35:25.000
<v Speaker 1>So Iran is doing some bad stuff, really bad stuff.

0:35:25.040 --> 0:35:26.920
<v Speaker 1>In fact, looks like they're going after shipping in the

0:35:26.960 --> 0:35:29.520
<v Speaker 1>Straits of Horn moves oil tankers. This could be a

0:35:29.560 --> 0:35:33.200
<v Speaker 1>big problem in the US response here. Well, we better

0:35:33.200 --> 0:35:37.440
<v Speaker 1>gauge this appropriately because once they start attacking oil tankers,

0:35:37.840 --> 0:35:39.960
<v Speaker 1>this can spile out of control real fast. We'll get

0:35:39.960 --> 0:35:44.439
<v Speaker 1>to that next. You are now entering the Freedom Hunt

0:35:44.480 --> 0:35:49.080
<v Speaker 1>Tanical Operation Center. All sensitive programs must be camps strictly

0:35:49.160 --> 0:35:53.360
<v Speaker 1>need to know Team Buck is cleared and ready for

0:35:53.400 --> 0:35:57.720
<v Speaker 1>the Buck brief. It is the assessment of the United

0:35:57.719 --> 0:36:01.560
<v Speaker 1>States government that the Islamic public of Iran's responsible for

0:36:01.600 --> 0:36:04.840
<v Speaker 1>the attacks that occurred in the Gulf of Amon today.

0:36:05.440 --> 0:36:09.440
<v Speaker 1>This assessment is based on intelligence, the weapons used, the

0:36:09.600 --> 0:36:13.240
<v Speaker 1>level of expertise needed to execute the operation, recent similar

0:36:13.280 --> 0:36:16.200
<v Speaker 1>Iranian attacks on shipping, and the fact that no proxy

0:36:16.239 --> 0:36:19.000
<v Speaker 1>group operating in the area has the resources and proficiency

0:36:19.040 --> 0:36:24.200
<v Speaker 1>to act with such a high degree of sophistication. This

0:36:24.280 --> 0:36:27.520
<v Speaker 1>has been a concern for a long time that the

0:36:27.520 --> 0:36:33.759
<v Speaker 1>Iranians would escalate the fastest way they could think of,

0:36:33.880 --> 0:36:36.320
<v Speaker 1>short of a direct attacks on Israel or a major

0:36:36.440 --> 0:36:41.040
<v Speaker 1>terror attack through them on US US embassies or US personnel,

0:36:41.680 --> 0:36:46.680
<v Speaker 1>and that is to create major global instability in the

0:36:46.760 --> 0:36:51.160
<v Speaker 1>oil markets through attacks on shipping in the Strait of

0:36:51.239 --> 0:36:54.359
<v Speaker 1>Horror Moves. On the Straight of Horror Moves is a

0:36:54.400 --> 0:36:58.279
<v Speaker 1>place that has roughly twenty five to thirty percent of

0:36:58.320 --> 0:37:00.839
<v Speaker 1>the world some say twenty it's twenty two thirty. Let's

0:37:00.840 --> 0:37:05.320
<v Speaker 1>say close to a quarter to a third of the

0:37:05.320 --> 0:37:09.719
<v Speaker 1>world's oil supply shipped through it on any given day.

0:37:10.880 --> 0:37:15.520
<v Speaker 1>So just today, having one tanker that's a Japanese vessel

0:37:16.640 --> 0:37:19.560
<v Speaker 1>that was hit with some kind of it looks like

0:37:19.600 --> 0:37:25.520
<v Speaker 1>a c mine or perhaps a torpedo, that caused global

0:37:25.520 --> 0:37:28.280
<v Speaker 1>oil prices to rise as high as four percent today,

0:37:28.360 --> 0:37:30.399
<v Speaker 1>though that went back down a little bit, but people

0:37:30.440 --> 0:37:35.239
<v Speaker 1>were concerned about a disruption in supply. Now you have

0:37:35.239 --> 0:37:40.080
<v Speaker 1>to remember last month, you know, the last month there

0:37:40.080 --> 0:37:43.759
<v Speaker 1>were four tankers attacked and the US blamed Iran for

0:37:43.800 --> 0:37:47.680
<v Speaker 1>those incidents as well, and it is just based on

0:37:47.719 --> 0:37:51.720
<v Speaker 1>the skill of these attacks, the technology and the weapons

0:37:51.719 --> 0:37:56.120
<v Speaker 1>involved that the US assessment so far is that this

0:37:56.200 --> 0:37:58.880
<v Speaker 1>is the Iranian regime. This is where we start to

0:37:58.880 --> 0:38:01.080
<v Speaker 1>have to get really concerned learned about what the future

0:38:01.200 --> 0:38:05.920
<v Speaker 1>of US policy against Iran is going to be. It

0:38:05.920 --> 0:38:08.680
<v Speaker 1>comes also at a time when you have this effort

0:38:09.800 --> 0:38:13.000
<v Speaker 1>to stop the sale of sophisticated billions of dollars of

0:38:13.080 --> 0:38:17.560
<v Speaker 1>sophisticated weapons to Saudi Arabia, which is the only regional

0:38:17.840 --> 0:38:22.640
<v Speaker 1>country that's in any kind of real position to push

0:38:22.719 --> 0:38:27.280
<v Speaker 1>back on Iran. Saudis have about a seventy billion dollar

0:38:27.400 --> 0:38:32.279
<v Speaker 1>defense budget, and the Saudias because that Saudi Arabia is

0:38:32.320 --> 0:38:36.000
<v Speaker 1>not just of but in a sense the primary Sunni

0:38:36.080 --> 0:38:39.840
<v Speaker 1>majority state of the Muslim world. It's the place of

0:38:39.880 --> 0:38:44.360
<v Speaker 1>the Holy Cities of Mecca and Medina. The Saudias have

0:38:44.560 --> 0:38:49.640
<v Speaker 1>a historic and long standing animosity, you could even say

0:38:49.719 --> 0:38:54.839
<v Speaker 1>hatred perhaps of the Shia Iranian regime. And if we

0:38:54.920 --> 0:38:58.640
<v Speaker 1>want somebody to be a counterbalanced to Iran, it's gonna

0:38:58.640 --> 0:39:02.680
<v Speaker 1>have to be the Saudis. So that's why antagonizing the Sadies,

0:39:02.680 --> 0:39:06.400
<v Speaker 1>whether it's over the war in Yemen or over the

0:39:07.160 --> 0:39:10.480
<v Speaker 1>really grotesque incident. But remember he wasn't one of ours,

0:39:10.520 --> 0:39:12.520
<v Speaker 1>and they lied about that for a while. Jamaica Shogi

0:39:12.600 --> 0:39:14.480
<v Speaker 1>not a US citizen, not even a permanent resident. The

0:39:14.520 --> 0:39:18.080
<v Speaker 1>guy was here on a visa, So he's a Jamaica

0:39:18.120 --> 0:39:20.120
<v Speaker 1>Shogi is a foreign national. That doesn't mean what happened

0:39:20.120 --> 0:39:22.280
<v Speaker 1>to him was it okay, But it just means that

0:39:22.280 --> 0:39:25.919
<v Speaker 1>that's not the United States government's urgent problem to deal

0:39:25.960 --> 0:39:29.000
<v Speaker 1>with and fix. We don't change our foreign policy in

0:39:29.080 --> 0:39:32.640
<v Speaker 1>response necessarily to what a foreign country does to a

0:39:32.719 --> 0:39:36.480
<v Speaker 1>citizen of another foreign country. That's not how this works.

0:39:36.520 --> 0:39:42.400
<v Speaker 1>American citizens interests come first in these situations. But the

0:39:42.480 --> 0:39:45.120
<v Speaker 1>hitting of an oil tanker in the this is the

0:39:45.120 --> 0:39:47.960
<v Speaker 1>Gulf of Oman, but it's right in right in the

0:39:48.000 --> 0:39:51.120
<v Speaker 1>same waterway effectively, or right nearby to the Strait of Hormouse.

0:39:51.680 --> 0:39:55.680
<v Speaker 1>And this is going to set everybody on edge because

0:39:55.680 --> 0:39:59.520
<v Speaker 1>if the Iranians decide to go with the option that

0:39:59.560 --> 0:40:01.880
<v Speaker 1>has been I mean I was writing assessments at the

0:40:01.960 --> 0:40:06.200
<v Speaker 1>Blaze on this going back now eight nine years where

0:40:06.320 --> 0:40:08.000
<v Speaker 1>look at the Irani I mean I did whole I

0:40:08.000 --> 0:40:09.680
<v Speaker 1>remember this and some people who watched in the real

0:40:09.719 --> 0:40:12.080
<v Speaker 1>news days know what I'm talking about at the Blaze

0:40:12.560 --> 0:40:15.680
<v Speaker 1>that I would, I would stand up and do maps

0:40:15.800 --> 0:40:18.440
<v Speaker 1>because map time with Buck was always a big, big

0:40:18.520 --> 0:40:20.520
<v Speaker 1>hit in the Blaze days, at least we thought it was.

0:40:21.040 --> 0:40:23.400
<v Speaker 1>And I'd walk through why this straight of hormones was

0:40:23.440 --> 0:40:26.719
<v Speaker 1>such an important strategic choke point. It's because of the

0:40:26.840 --> 0:40:29.960
<v Speaker 1>energy supplies that come out come out of the Gulf,

0:40:30.520 --> 0:40:35.560
<v Speaker 1>and if the Iranians decided to create not just the

0:40:35.719 --> 0:40:42.640
<v Speaker 1>disruption in supply, but the attendant ecological disaster of a

0:40:42.719 --> 0:40:45.600
<v Speaker 1>major series of strikes on it. I mean, oil tankers

0:40:45.600 --> 0:40:49.319
<v Speaker 1>are like big floating target practice. It's not hard at

0:40:49.320 --> 0:40:53.919
<v Speaker 1>all for the Iranians to take them out. And as

0:40:53.960 --> 0:40:59.439
<v Speaker 1>you know, one oil tanker getting hit, you have environmentalists

0:40:59.440 --> 0:41:03.719
<v Speaker 1>concerned about species die off, and you know what it

0:41:03.760 --> 0:41:07.239
<v Speaker 1>does to ecosystems in the water for who knows how long.

0:41:07.400 --> 0:41:10.000
<v Speaker 1>What if you hit ten oil tankers, what if you

0:41:10.080 --> 0:41:15.000
<v Speaker 1>hit twenty and all that all that oil, all those losses,

0:41:15.400 --> 0:41:18.120
<v Speaker 1>What does that do to the global market? And what's

0:41:18.160 --> 0:41:20.600
<v Speaker 1>really our response? What's our retaliation when it be Now?

0:41:20.680 --> 0:41:23.200
<v Speaker 1>I hope it doesn't go to this place, but it

0:41:23.280 --> 0:41:27.640
<v Speaker 1>obviously could go to this place, and just by I

0:41:27.960 --> 0:41:31.080
<v Speaker 1>can't really show you. As talking about maps, the Gulf

0:41:31.080 --> 0:41:35.520
<v Speaker 1>of Oman is really the outflow area from the Persian Gulf,

0:41:36.200 --> 0:41:40.359
<v Speaker 1>and the Strait of Hormuz is the place where you

0:41:40.400 --> 0:41:45.840
<v Speaker 1>have this this tightening of the sort of a bottleneck

0:41:45.880 --> 0:41:48.800
<v Speaker 1>effect between the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman.

0:41:49.680 --> 0:41:51.719
<v Speaker 1>So I mean this is right off the Iranian coast.

0:41:51.800 --> 0:41:54.799
<v Speaker 1>I mean, Iran is all along this waterway and can

0:41:54.960 --> 0:41:59.320
<v Speaker 1>very easily hit any number of these ships and tankers

0:41:59.719 --> 0:42:06.560
<v Speaker 1>with either marine naval weapons or ground based weapons too.

0:42:06.880 --> 0:42:08.520
<v Speaker 1>And there's not a whole lot that we can we

0:42:08.600 --> 0:42:11.480
<v Speaker 1>can do about it. Now, the Iranians are saying this

0:42:11.520 --> 0:42:13.879
<v Speaker 1>is all suspicious, and then it really know, what they're

0:42:13.880 --> 0:42:16.239
<v Speaker 1>hoping is to have some level of deniability. And this

0:42:16.320 --> 0:42:20.520
<v Speaker 1>is a classic tactic in Middle East with Middle East regimes,

0:42:20.560 --> 0:42:23.920
<v Speaker 1>where we may know well and good that the Iranians

0:42:23.920 --> 0:42:28.640
<v Speaker 1>are behind this, but they are going to say that

0:42:29.480 --> 0:42:31.400
<v Speaker 1>they had nothing to do with this. This is a

0:42:31.400 --> 0:42:36.080
<v Speaker 1>false flag. This is the you know, the Americans looking

0:42:36.160 --> 0:42:41.000
<v Speaker 1>for another wm D moment, trying to attack Iran with

0:42:41.040 --> 0:42:43.000
<v Speaker 1>any you know, all this is all John Bolton and

0:42:43.080 --> 0:42:46.880
<v Speaker 1>some kind of you know, some scheme, some plot that

0:42:46.920 --> 0:42:52.920
<v Speaker 1>he's put at work. You know. I also remember that

0:42:52.960 --> 0:42:54.960
<v Speaker 1>it was what a week or two I forget what

0:42:55.040 --> 0:42:56.960
<v Speaker 1>it was. It was a week or two ago when

0:42:56.960 --> 0:43:00.960
<v Speaker 1>the administration was talking about how there's an escalation in

0:43:01.000 --> 0:43:03.680
<v Speaker 1>the threat reporting coming out of this region, and there

0:43:03.719 --> 0:43:06.760
<v Speaker 1>were concerns that Iranian boats were being outfitted for attacks.

0:43:07.040 --> 0:43:09.200
<v Speaker 1>And there are all these other reports that came out

0:43:09.200 --> 0:43:11.160
<v Speaker 1>in the anti Trump newspapers about how that was all

0:43:11.280 --> 0:43:14.880
<v Speaker 1>lies and that intelligence doesn't really exist, and was it

0:43:14.960 --> 0:43:20.600
<v Speaker 1>all lies? Does that intelligence not really exist? I think

0:43:20.600 --> 0:43:22.680
<v Speaker 1>that we might want to go back and revisit who

0:43:22.760 --> 0:43:27.040
<v Speaker 1>was saying what to whom about all that. But Trump

0:43:27.239 --> 0:43:31.279
<v Speaker 1>is willing to see this through. He completely rejects the

0:43:31.360 --> 0:43:35.040
<v Speaker 1>Obama administration approach to Iran, which was appeasement, which was

0:43:35.120 --> 0:43:38.160
<v Speaker 1>trying to find some means of getting the Mullas to

0:43:38.440 --> 0:43:41.239
<v Speaker 1>like us more. Trump did not like that approach at all.

0:43:42.520 --> 0:43:45.320
<v Speaker 1>Here's what Trump says about how he deals with Iran.

0:43:45.360 --> 0:43:48.719
<v Speaker 1>Play fifteen. Ran is not the same country. When I

0:43:48.760 --> 0:43:52.520
<v Speaker 1>became president, Iran was a terror all over the world.

0:43:52.520 --> 0:43:55.680
<v Speaker 1>They had just made this horrible deal for the United States,

0:43:55.719 --> 0:43:59.960
<v Speaker 1>the Iran Nuclear o'deal, and I became president and I terminated,

0:44:00.040 --> 0:44:02.240
<v Speaker 1>did the deal and a run now is in chaos.

0:44:03.800 --> 0:44:08.480
<v Speaker 1>I still remember being on air at CNN and describing

0:44:09.560 --> 0:44:15.439
<v Speaker 1>describing the transfer of hostages for pallettes of cash as

0:44:15.920 --> 0:44:18.960
<v Speaker 1>paying a terrorist organiza or paying a terrorist regime for

0:44:19.160 --> 0:44:22.040
<v Speaker 1>hostages and having all these CNN and let's go, oh no,

0:44:22.120 --> 0:44:24.719
<v Speaker 1>this isn't. This isn't you know, it's a separate thing.

0:44:24.880 --> 0:44:27.200
<v Speaker 1>It's money that was already owed to them. I mean

0:44:27.239 --> 0:44:31.680
<v Speaker 1>the mental gymnastics these people went through because they realize

0:44:31.719 --> 0:44:34.480
<v Speaker 1>it looked really bad that the Obama administration was just

0:44:34.640 --> 0:44:40.560
<v Speaker 1>handing sending palettes of cash to the Mullahs to give

0:44:40.640 --> 0:44:42.680
<v Speaker 1>us back people the iranis never should have had at

0:44:42.719 --> 0:44:45.399
<v Speaker 1>the first place. You know, one thing that is very

0:44:45.400 --> 0:44:48.560
<v Speaker 1>true across the Middle East is you know, people see

0:44:48.640 --> 0:44:50.640
<v Speaker 1>two horses, a strong horse and a weak horse, they

0:44:50.640 --> 0:44:54.360
<v Speaker 1>go at the strong horse. Strength matters in the Middle East.

0:44:54.400 --> 0:44:57.560
<v Speaker 1>This is it's not a region where play by the rules,

0:44:57.760 --> 0:45:03.160
<v Speaker 1>fair play can cosideration for the other side is respected,

0:45:03.239 --> 0:45:07.320
<v Speaker 1>or is revered or even really considered to be necessarily

0:45:07.360 --> 0:45:10.320
<v Speaker 1>a good thing in and of itself. It's all about

0:45:10.360 --> 0:45:12.120
<v Speaker 1>who has the upper hand, and who has strength, and

0:45:12.160 --> 0:45:16.520
<v Speaker 1>who shows strength and the Obama administration constantly showed weakness

0:45:16.520 --> 0:45:18.279
<v Speaker 1>on Iran. This is why they had to have Ben

0:45:18.360 --> 0:45:23.040
<v Speaker 1>Rhodes and the other national security apparatchicks in the Obama

0:45:23.040 --> 0:45:27.360
<v Speaker 1>administration tell and effectively using their own words. Here, you know,

0:45:27.520 --> 0:45:30.200
<v Speaker 1>dumbass twenty five year old journalists in DC, you don't

0:45:30.200 --> 0:45:33.600
<v Speaker 1>know anything what they wanted them to say, so they'd

0:45:33.600 --> 0:45:35.759
<v Speaker 1>go out and say it about the Iran deal so

0:45:35.800 --> 0:45:40.799
<v Speaker 1>they could get through a deal that was not in

0:45:40.880 --> 0:45:43.880
<v Speaker 1>any way painful for Tehran and was ridiculous, and Trump

0:45:44.000 --> 0:45:47.520
<v Speaker 1>recognized it as ridiculous. So now we're out of it.

0:45:48.400 --> 0:45:50.799
<v Speaker 1>The Europeans are all figuring out whether they're what they're

0:45:50.800 --> 0:45:53.480
<v Speaker 1>going to do now. But it wasn't a good deal.

0:45:53.480 --> 0:45:55.200
<v Speaker 1>It didn't deal with ballistic missiles, it didn't deal with

0:45:55.280 --> 0:45:58.520
<v Speaker 1>terrorist activity. It gave way too much relief to an

0:45:58.520 --> 0:46:02.520
<v Speaker 1>Iranian regime that just did not deserve it. And now

0:46:02.560 --> 0:46:04.399
<v Speaker 1>we're at a place where the administration's got some tough

0:46:04.480 --> 0:46:10.640
<v Speaker 1>choices to make because anything that involves US ground troops

0:46:10.680 --> 0:46:12.799
<v Speaker 1>in the Middle East now the Trump administrations to think

0:46:12.800 --> 0:46:18.600
<v Speaker 1>of it as a true last resort. And I do

0:46:18.640 --> 0:46:24.680
<v Speaker 1>not want any of the neo conservative tendencies to all

0:46:24.680 --> 0:46:28.080
<v Speaker 1>of a sudden overtake this administration, and we have we

0:46:28.200 --> 0:46:34.120
<v Speaker 1>have this premise that is made to seem normal that

0:46:35.160 --> 0:46:37.480
<v Speaker 1>if we can just get rid of the Mullah's and

0:46:37.600 --> 0:46:39.759
<v Speaker 1>maybe just take over Iron for like six months with

0:46:39.840 --> 0:46:41.880
<v Speaker 1>one hundred or a hundred ty thousand soldiers, we can

0:46:41.920 --> 0:46:44.879
<v Speaker 1>make this great country out of it. No, no, no,

0:46:45.200 --> 0:46:47.680
<v Speaker 1>We've learned that lesson in Iraq, We've learned that lesson

0:46:47.680 --> 0:46:50.680
<v Speaker 1>in Afghanistan. We are not doing that again. So then

0:46:50.719 --> 0:46:53.319
<v Speaker 1>you have to ask, well, what do we do? What

0:46:53.560 --> 0:47:00.279
<v Speaker 1>is the response? If the Iranians decide just to completely way,

0:47:00.280 --> 0:47:02.000
<v Speaker 1>it would mean the Europeans would have abandoned them the deal.

0:47:02.000 --> 0:47:03.880
<v Speaker 1>But I don't think they're going to do this because

0:47:04.719 --> 0:47:08.960
<v Speaker 1>the Iranian state, the economy is weak, their military is

0:47:10.200 --> 0:47:14.920
<v Speaker 1>good at at asymmetrical and terrorist stuff, but not a

0:47:15.520 --> 0:47:17.799
<v Speaker 1>first world power by any stretch with the in terms

0:47:17.800 --> 0:47:20.960
<v Speaker 1>of their military. So how do we get them to

0:47:21.200 --> 0:47:23.839
<v Speaker 1>behave and what are our options? General Jack Keane had

0:47:23.880 --> 0:47:26.840
<v Speaker 1>some thoughts on on this over at Fox. Here's what

0:47:26.880 --> 0:47:31.240
<v Speaker 1>he said, Place sixteen more pressure that's got to bite

0:47:31.239 --> 0:47:33.800
<v Speaker 1>more on them. They haven't changed them align aggressive behavior,

0:47:33.800 --> 0:47:37.200
<v Speaker 1>but a couple of things have happened. There's less resources

0:47:37.200 --> 0:47:39.600
<v Speaker 1>that they're providing to the proxies, and it's their proxies

0:47:39.600 --> 0:47:42.200
<v Speaker 1>who are propping up lemon on running the war in

0:47:42.320 --> 0:47:45.640
<v Speaker 1>Syria to civil war, running the war in Yemen as well.

0:47:45.719 --> 0:47:50.000
<v Speaker 1>So that already is a significant improvement over where we are,

0:47:50.280 --> 0:47:53.600
<v Speaker 1>but we got to continue to match pressure campaign to

0:47:53.880 --> 0:47:57.560
<v Speaker 1>for sure here it is absolutely critically now. I think

0:47:57.560 --> 0:47:59.600
<v Speaker 1>the General is correct, although that may not be enough

0:47:59.719 --> 0:48:01.279
<v Speaker 1>in an of itself. Yeah, we need to keep the

0:48:01.320 --> 0:48:03.880
<v Speaker 1>pressure on, Okay, but that's what we've been doing. What

0:48:03.960 --> 0:48:07.239
<v Speaker 1>if the Iranian step out of line and cross the

0:48:07.239 --> 0:48:11.960
<v Speaker 1>red line of blowing up tankers them? What air strikes?

0:48:13.080 --> 0:48:16.279
<v Speaker 1>How many air strikes for how long? And what do

0:48:16.280 --> 0:48:19.960
<v Speaker 1>we do if the Iranians then retaliate with and these

0:48:20.000 --> 0:48:22.000
<v Speaker 1>are all these are the old concerns. This is what

0:48:22.040 --> 0:48:25.359
<v Speaker 1>people have been writing reports and assessments on, stretching back

0:48:25.440 --> 0:48:27.759
<v Speaker 1>for many years, for decades in some cases. What will

0:48:27.800 --> 0:48:33.440
<v Speaker 1>Iran do when fully boxed into a corner? This may

0:48:33.480 --> 0:48:35.560
<v Speaker 1>in a sense be an indicator of how well the

0:48:35.600 --> 0:48:39.160
<v Speaker 1>Trump's strategy is working. That their behavior, you know, they're

0:48:39.239 --> 0:48:41.160
<v Speaker 1>trying to see if we'll blink. They're trying to see

0:48:41.200 --> 0:48:44.480
<v Speaker 1>if we will abandon the pressure campaign, if we'll decide

0:48:44.520 --> 0:48:47.640
<v Speaker 1>that we don't need to do what the Trump administration

0:48:47.680 --> 0:48:50.839
<v Speaker 1>has been doing. Essentially, people will get scared and say,

0:48:50.840 --> 0:48:52.759
<v Speaker 1>oh gosh, we don't want to We don't want a

0:48:52.800 --> 0:48:55.000
<v Speaker 1>hot war with Iran, so we better be the ones.

0:48:55.040 --> 0:48:58.080
<v Speaker 1>America needs to be the one to back off. I

0:48:58.080 --> 0:49:01.680
<v Speaker 1>think that would be a major mistake. I think that

0:49:01.719 --> 0:49:06.160
<v Speaker 1>Iran has been a thorn in the side of America, Israel,

0:49:06.200 --> 0:49:07.799
<v Speaker 1>and the rest of the world for far too long.

0:49:07.920 --> 0:49:12.600
<v Speaker 1>The regime is an evil and illegitimate regime, and the

0:49:12.640 --> 0:49:15.319
<v Speaker 1>pressure that we have on it is warranted. And we

0:49:15.400 --> 0:49:17.600
<v Speaker 1>don't have to live in a world within Iran run

0:49:17.640 --> 0:49:21.239
<v Speaker 1>by theocratic maniacs wet. We don't have to accept that.

0:49:22.000 --> 0:49:25.680
<v Speaker 1>We've come to accept it, perhaps whether intentionally or not,

0:49:25.719 --> 0:49:27.880
<v Speaker 1>because it's been around for so long, but that doesn't

0:49:27.920 --> 0:49:31.239
<v Speaker 1>mean that we have to really accept it forever. So

0:49:32.040 --> 0:49:34.600
<v Speaker 1>tensions are very high. You'll see that headline, You'll hear

0:49:34.600 --> 0:49:36.399
<v Speaker 1>people saying that a lot. It is true right now.

0:49:36.920 --> 0:49:39.160
<v Speaker 1>But I hope that Trump stays the course because his

0:49:39.320 --> 0:49:42.160
<v Speaker 1>instincts in dealing with the Mullahs I believe are correct.

0:49:43.480 --> 0:49:49.959
<v Speaker 1>Fed's gone wild d OJ's stunning inability to prosecute its

0:49:50.040 --> 0:49:54.080
<v Speaker 1>own bad actors. This from my colleague, former colleague at

0:49:54.120 --> 0:49:57.520
<v Speaker 1>the Hill, mister John Solomon. Oh man, he loves, he

0:49:57.680 --> 0:49:59.719
<v Speaker 1>loves to poke the Deep State in the eye with

0:49:59.800 --> 0:50:03.480
<v Speaker 1>these pieces. It's really fun. Let's just get into some

0:50:03.560 --> 0:50:06.280
<v Speaker 1>of the salacious details here on the Hill dot com,

0:50:06.280 --> 0:50:12.000
<v Speaker 1>shall we. One was caught red handed engaged in nepotism, Another,

0:50:12.480 --> 0:50:15.720
<v Speaker 1>a lawyer no less, admitted to shoplifting at a Marine

0:50:15.719 --> 0:50:20.040
<v Speaker 1>Barracks store, a third leaked sealed court information to the

0:50:20.040 --> 0:50:24.040
<v Speaker 1>news media, and a fourth engaged in fraud by turning

0:50:24.120 --> 0:50:30.040
<v Speaker 1>a government garage into a personal repair shop. Four cases

0:50:30.360 --> 0:50:34.000
<v Speaker 1>all saw solve in the past month, with suspects who

0:50:34.040 --> 0:50:38.040
<v Speaker 1>cost taxpayers hundreds of thousands of dollars and significant breaches

0:50:38.040 --> 0:50:41.640
<v Speaker 1>of public trust. But these weren't your everyday purps. All

0:50:42.160 --> 0:50:46.880
<v Speaker 1>were US Department of Justice employees who are supposed to

0:50:46.960 --> 0:50:49.480
<v Speaker 1>catch other criminals while working for the FBI, the Drug

0:50:49.560 --> 0:50:54.840
<v Speaker 1>Enforcement Administration, and US attorney's offices. Instead, they broke the

0:50:54.960 --> 0:50:58.720
<v Speaker 1>law or violated the rules, and all managed to escape prosecution.

0:51:00.280 --> 0:51:04.040
<v Speaker 1>They're proven transgressions. Recent Justice Department disciplinary files tell an

0:51:04.120 --> 0:51:10.000
<v Speaker 1>undeniable story the DOJ is doing a poor job of

0:51:10.200 --> 0:51:15.319
<v Speaker 1>punishing its own. This is one of these reads where

0:51:16.520 --> 0:51:20.359
<v Speaker 1>you see that the federal bureaucracies, for all their talk

0:51:20.440 --> 0:51:23.720
<v Speaker 1>about being public servants and how they just they only exist,

0:51:23.760 --> 0:51:27.920
<v Speaker 1>they only you know, are around to do their best

0:51:28.000 --> 0:51:33.160
<v Speaker 1>for America, to help the American people. For all of

0:51:33.200 --> 0:51:39.040
<v Speaker 1>that talk, for all of that noise they make, they

0:51:39.160 --> 0:51:42.120
<v Speaker 1>think they should live by a slightly or in some cases,

0:51:42.520 --> 0:51:47.240
<v Speaker 1>very different set of standards. And this is a recurring

0:51:47.280 --> 0:51:49.640
<v Speaker 1>theme today on the show. If we have double standards,

0:51:49.680 --> 0:51:54.440
<v Speaker 1>we really have no standards, because you either punish certain

0:51:54.440 --> 0:51:58.600
<v Speaker 1>infractions a certain way because that's what's right, or you don't.

0:51:58.600 --> 0:52:00.680
<v Speaker 1>And if you don't, well then that's to change the

0:52:00.719 --> 0:52:09.320
<v Speaker 1>way people view all punishments going forward. The DOJ is

0:52:09.320 --> 0:52:11.520
<v Speaker 1>a place where you know, and I also say this,

0:52:11.960 --> 0:52:13.680
<v Speaker 1>it's true, not just the DOJ, it's it's a lot

0:52:13.719 --> 0:52:16.520
<v Speaker 1>of these government agencies. You will find that if you

0:52:16.760 --> 0:52:20.799
<v Speaker 1>step out a line against the organization as one of

0:52:20.840 --> 0:52:24.120
<v Speaker 1>their own, they will find ways to crush you and

0:52:24.120 --> 0:52:27.520
<v Speaker 1>you will be punished to the maximum extent allowed by law.

0:52:28.280 --> 0:52:31.200
<v Speaker 1>But if you're just doing stuff that's embarrassing to the

0:52:31.320 --> 0:52:35.200
<v Speaker 1>organization in order to protect the organization, you know, the

0:52:35.920 --> 0:52:40.360
<v Speaker 1>DOJ and these others. They're almost like self sustaining organisms,

0:52:40.400 --> 0:52:44.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, self interested organisms. So if you come at

0:52:44.600 --> 0:52:49.080
<v Speaker 1>your home agency with whistleblowers stuff, or you do anything

0:52:49.120 --> 0:52:53.680
<v Speaker 1>like that, then you're likely to just get crushed. They will.

0:52:53.760 --> 0:52:56.520
<v Speaker 1>They will go into time and attendance fraud on you.

0:52:56.600 --> 0:53:00.919
<v Speaker 1>There's some classic stuff they do, you know, to just

0:53:02.080 --> 0:53:05.200
<v Speaker 1>make you sound like a criminal, but really there's political

0:53:05.360 --> 0:53:07.560
<v Speaker 1>or politicial reasons that they're trying to take you down.

0:53:08.120 --> 0:53:09.799
<v Speaker 1>But if you just do stuff like you know, watch

0:53:09.840 --> 0:53:11.719
<v Speaker 1>porn for twelve hours a day in your office from

0:53:11.719 --> 0:53:14.160
<v Speaker 1>your government computer, you know, maybe they'll give you a

0:53:14.200 --> 0:53:15.440
<v Speaker 1>slap on the wrist, but they don't want to make

0:53:15.440 --> 0:53:18.000
<v Speaker 1>a big deal of it because that makes the whole

0:53:18.040 --> 0:53:21.359
<v Speaker 1>agency look bad. This is stuff that really happens, by

0:53:21.400 --> 0:53:26.040
<v Speaker 1>the way, it's classic though fed's gone wild. DJ's stunning

0:53:26.040 --> 0:53:28.479
<v Speaker 1>ability to prosecute its own bad actors, and that's for sure.

0:53:29.320 --> 0:53:32.399
<v Speaker 1>Man John Solomon, that guy, he does not have any

0:53:32.480 --> 0:53:36.239
<v Speaker 1>qualms about slapping the Deep State across the face and say,

0:53:36.239 --> 0:53:39.600
<v Speaker 1>what's up, Deep State? Take that. I challenge you to

0:53:39.680 --> 0:53:45.200
<v Speaker 1>a duel. Deep States. We'll be right back Mexico's moving

0:53:45.280 --> 0:53:48.879
<v Speaker 1>six thousand troops to their southern border. That's a lot

0:53:48.880 --> 0:53:52.239
<v Speaker 1>of troops. If Mexico does a great job, then you're

0:53:52.239 --> 0:53:54.960
<v Speaker 1>not gonna have very many people coming up. If they don't,

0:53:55.000 --> 0:53:58.640
<v Speaker 1>then we have Phase two. Phase two is very tough,

0:53:59.560 --> 0:54:01.160
<v Speaker 1>but I think they're going to do a good job.

0:54:01.560 --> 0:54:03.640
<v Speaker 1>If Mexico does what they say they're going to do,

0:54:03.880 --> 0:54:05.560
<v Speaker 1>it will be a huge help to what's going on

0:54:05.600 --> 0:54:07.959
<v Speaker 1>in the border. These individuals are coming from these Northern

0:54:08.000 --> 0:54:10.359
<v Speaker 1>Triangle countries primarily, but now from all around the world,

0:54:10.400 --> 0:54:13.440
<v Speaker 1>as we've recently seen, coming to our border because they

0:54:13.480 --> 0:54:15.720
<v Speaker 1>know that because Congress has failed to fix the loopholes

0:54:15.760 --> 0:54:18.080
<v Speaker 1>and our immigration laws, that we can't detain them and

0:54:18.080 --> 0:54:20.120
<v Speaker 1>they'll be released into our country. If they can't even

0:54:20.200 --> 0:54:22.239
<v Speaker 1>get to the United States and have to remain in

0:54:22.280 --> 0:54:25.440
<v Speaker 1>Mexico or get stock stopped in Guatemala or somewhere else

0:54:25.480 --> 0:54:27.319
<v Speaker 1>in the Northern Triangle, then yes, that's going to change

0:54:27.320 --> 0:54:30.279
<v Speaker 1>the entire dynamic. It's a humanitarian crisis, it's a border

0:54:30.320 --> 0:54:33.880
<v Speaker 1>security crisis, it's a public safety crisis. Unfortunately, Congress has

0:54:33.880 --> 0:54:36.719
<v Speaker 1>failed to fix the crisis, and now as we can

0:54:36.719 --> 0:54:39.800
<v Speaker 1>see going through the reprogramming, issue efforts, and the twenty

0:54:39.800 --> 0:54:42.080
<v Speaker 1>twenty budget they propose. They're not even willing to fund

0:54:42.160 --> 0:54:45.280
<v Speaker 1>us properly to manage the crisis. So without the money

0:54:45.280 --> 0:54:47.800
<v Speaker 1>and the resources and no changes to the laws, this

0:54:47.920 --> 0:54:51.879
<v Speaker 1>crisis is not going to abate itself. That was the

0:54:51.960 --> 0:54:55.000
<v Speaker 1>ICE Deputy director on the situation at the border, and

0:54:55.400 --> 0:54:59.440
<v Speaker 1>Mexican promises to take action to help out here. Remember

0:54:59.480 --> 0:55:01.800
<v Speaker 1>what I told last week. If Trump gets a deal

0:55:01.880 --> 0:55:03.799
<v Speaker 1>in Mexico, all of a sudden is going to be

0:55:03.800 --> 0:55:07.000
<v Speaker 1>more helpful. You know what, We're gonna be told, Oh

0:55:07.160 --> 0:55:10.800
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't matter. Oh, Trump didn't really get a deal.

0:55:11.280 --> 0:55:14.640
<v Speaker 1>Trump didn't get a win. Let's not get crazy. We

0:55:14.719 --> 0:55:18.440
<v Speaker 1>knew it. You knew it. I knew it. They cannot

0:55:18.480 --> 0:55:22.000
<v Speaker 1>they cannot bring themselves in the press corps. The Democrats

0:55:22.080 --> 0:55:27.920
<v Speaker 1>will not, to the point of denying clear obvious reality,

0:55:28.880 --> 0:55:34.279
<v Speaker 1>will not give credit to Trump for anything. What was

0:55:34.320 --> 0:55:36.800
<v Speaker 1>the big the big downside of his action? What was

0:55:36.840 --> 0:55:39.759
<v Speaker 1>the big problem with him saying that we were gonna

0:55:39.760 --> 0:55:42.320
<v Speaker 1>put tariffs in place and there was no big downside.

0:55:42.360 --> 0:55:44.040
<v Speaker 1>It looks like there was a pretty big upside here.

0:55:44.080 --> 0:55:46.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean when I say there was no big downside,

0:55:46.840 --> 0:55:49.840
<v Speaker 1>it managed to work. They didn't have to put the

0:55:49.880 --> 0:55:53.879
<v Speaker 1>tariffs in place. That's, you know, a negotiation where you're

0:55:53.960 --> 0:55:56.440
<v Speaker 1>not willing to take any risks. It's not a negotiation

0:55:56.480 --> 0:55:59.279
<v Speaker 1>where you're going to win very much either. This is

0:55:59.280 --> 0:56:03.560
<v Speaker 1>a very simple formulation, no risk, no reward. Trump will

0:56:03.600 --> 0:56:07.600
<v Speaker 1>take risks on policy where he thinks it's necessary. And

0:56:07.760 --> 0:56:11.400
<v Speaker 1>six thousand troops to the Mexican southern border, which is

0:56:11.440 --> 0:56:15.239
<v Speaker 1>the border with Guatemala. That could really help. Even if

0:56:15.280 --> 0:56:19.080
<v Speaker 1>Mexico stops people from getting into the United States from

0:56:19.120 --> 0:56:21.600
<v Speaker 1>Central America, then at least we don't have to worry

0:56:21.600 --> 0:56:24.239
<v Speaker 1>about the giant loophole in our law that Congress won't

0:56:24.280 --> 0:56:26.720
<v Speaker 1>fix that says if you're from a non contiguous country,

0:56:27.640 --> 0:56:33.000
<v Speaker 1>you will not be able to be immediately deported, which

0:56:33.040 --> 0:56:36.480
<v Speaker 1>is a huge, huge problem. And the scope of this

0:56:36.520 --> 0:56:38.960
<v Speaker 1>problem or filling at the place where no one can

0:56:39.040 --> 0:56:42.600
<v Speaker 1>deny that this is a massive issue, and there's a

0:56:42.640 --> 0:56:44.399
<v Speaker 1>lot of stuff that needs to be dealt with here

0:56:44.440 --> 0:56:50.640
<v Speaker 1>and fixed. But when we think more about what the

0:56:50.719 --> 0:56:52.279
<v Speaker 1>media has been willing to say about this and how

0:56:52.280 --> 0:56:53.759
<v Speaker 1>they've acted in the past, I mean, I think we've

0:56:53.760 --> 0:56:58.640
<v Speaker 1>got to understand here quite clearly that they've been lying.

0:56:59.320 --> 0:57:01.320
<v Speaker 1>They've been lying about this. I mean, here's a DHS

0:57:01.480 --> 0:57:05.400
<v Speaker 1>chief just making it, making it as straightforward as possible,

0:57:05.440 --> 0:57:08.839
<v Speaker 1>what's going on here? Play thirteen. I want to make

0:57:08.880 --> 0:57:11.919
<v Speaker 1>clear that this crisis is unlike anything we've ever seen

0:57:11.960 --> 0:57:15.279
<v Speaker 1>in our border, and it in large part is due

0:57:15.280 --> 0:57:17.440
<v Speaker 1>to the gaps in our immigration laws that are driving

0:57:17.600 --> 0:57:19.280
<v Speaker 1>Any of our men and women on the border can

0:57:19.320 --> 0:57:22.560
<v Speaker 1>tell you that DHS facilities are overflowing, that our resources

0:57:22.600 --> 0:57:28.360
<v Speaker 1>are stretched stin Yep, all of that is true. This

0:57:28.480 --> 0:57:32.680
<v Speaker 1>is a serious crisis. This is a problem that will

0:57:32.720 --> 0:57:36.760
<v Speaker 1>not solve itself. The Trump administration is taking action, is

0:57:36.800 --> 0:57:41.120
<v Speaker 1>taking pretty dramatic action, in fact, in order to make

0:57:41.240 --> 0:57:46.720
<v Speaker 1>something happen here. And if judges don't stand in the way,

0:57:47.320 --> 0:57:49.880
<v Speaker 1>I think that will be will be in a better

0:57:49.920 --> 0:57:52.720
<v Speaker 1>place pretty soon. I think the Mexican government knows that

0:57:52.760 --> 0:57:55.280
<v Speaker 1>Trump is serious about Look at the China tariffs. Oh,

0:57:55.320 --> 0:57:57.240
<v Speaker 1>he'll never do it, it's a trade war, it's a

0:57:57.240 --> 0:58:00.200
<v Speaker 1>bad idea. Oh, actually, he will do it, and he

0:58:00.280 --> 0:58:03.240
<v Speaker 1>has done it already. And this is one of the

0:58:03.240 --> 0:58:08.240
<v Speaker 1>biggest gambles on trade in the economy that any president's

0:58:08.240 --> 0:58:10.920
<v Speaker 1>taken a long time. But Trump really believes in this.

0:58:12.120 --> 0:58:14.400
<v Speaker 1>But to give you a sense of the dishonesty in

0:58:14.440 --> 0:58:19.520
<v Speaker 1>the way this issue is reported on, a representative Dan

0:58:19.600 --> 0:58:24.480
<v Speaker 1>Crenshaw has pointed to the way that Time Magazine and

0:58:24.600 --> 0:58:27.959
<v Speaker 1>The Hill, where I used to work until a week ago,

0:58:29.040 --> 0:58:31.400
<v Speaker 1>the way that they have reported on the microan crisis

0:58:31.440 --> 0:58:34.000
<v Speaker 1>recently involves things like this. The Hill tweeted out the

0:58:34.000 --> 0:58:39.480
<v Speaker 1>Trump administration is sending migrant children to the former Japanese

0:58:39.960 --> 0:58:47.560
<v Speaker 1>to a former Japanese internment camp, and this is meant

0:58:47.640 --> 0:58:51.280
<v Speaker 1>to get people to completely I think that they're aciting

0:58:51.280 --> 0:58:53.920
<v Speaker 1>the the Time report here in the Hill though, so

0:58:53.960 --> 0:58:57.360
<v Speaker 1>it's really a Time magazine report. I don't think that

0:58:57.400 --> 0:59:02.360
<v Speaker 1>this was original reporting from the Hill. And yes, the

0:59:02.400 --> 0:59:04.640
<v Speaker 1>Fort Sill this is reported by So so the Hill

0:59:04.720 --> 0:59:07.640
<v Speaker 1>is getting is getting hit here, but they're just reporting

0:59:07.680 --> 0:59:10.080
<v Speaker 1>on a report. It was Time magazine that said, oh

0:59:10.120 --> 0:59:14.000
<v Speaker 1>my gosh, Fort Sill, this is where there was the

0:59:14.080 --> 0:59:17.160
<v Speaker 1>interment of Japanese Americans, and so this is a terrible thing.

0:59:17.680 --> 0:59:21.560
<v Speaker 1>Dan Crenshaw understands that the people who are reporting on

0:59:21.560 --> 0:59:24.960
<v Speaker 1>this as such, this is a bad faith reporting job

0:59:25.000 --> 0:59:28.280
<v Speaker 1>from Time magazine. Time magazine is just a left wing

0:59:28.400 --> 0:59:32.640
<v Speaker 1>rag and I think a lot of people are surprised

0:59:32.640 --> 0:59:35.280
<v Speaker 1>that it still exists in any capacity, but it certainly does.

0:59:36.000 --> 0:59:40.160
<v Speaker 1>But here's Crenshaw on saying on Time magazine, saying that

0:59:40.200 --> 0:59:43.600
<v Speaker 1>these migrant children are being sent to the same place

0:59:43.800 --> 0:59:48.520
<v Speaker 1>as the as the intern Japanese were play fourteen. And

0:59:48.600 --> 0:59:52.280
<v Speaker 1>this is another example of the media. This was Time magazine.

0:59:52.320 --> 0:59:53.960
<v Speaker 1>I think The Hill reported this year. They have a

0:59:54.000 --> 0:59:57.600
<v Speaker 1>headline that says, you know, the administration is putting kids

0:59:57.840 --> 1:00:01.840
<v Speaker 1>where we used to put where interment for Japanese americancerning

1:00:01.840 --> 1:00:04.120
<v Speaker 1>World War To. The implication, of course, that they're going

1:00:04.160 --> 1:00:06.920
<v Speaker 1>for is that, oh, we're putting people in concentration camps.

1:00:06.920 --> 1:00:08.560
<v Speaker 1>Of course, nothing could be further from the truth. This

1:00:08.640 --> 1:00:11.400
<v Speaker 1>is a military base. We are looking for places to

1:00:11.480 --> 1:00:14.840
<v Speaker 1>house kids in a humane way. It's nonsense. It's used

1:00:14.840 --> 1:00:17.760
<v Speaker 1>for something different now. It is not a concentration camp.

1:00:17.800 --> 1:00:19.640
<v Speaker 1>It's not even close to that. They've said that they're

1:00:19.680 --> 1:00:21.400
<v Speaker 1>going to open it up to media and let people

1:00:21.400 --> 1:00:23.720
<v Speaker 1>come look at it. You can make your arguments without

1:00:23.760 --> 1:00:26.560
<v Speaker 1>being so unbelievably dishonest. But they just can't help themselves.

1:00:26.600 --> 1:00:29.400
<v Speaker 1>How are we supposed to trust members of the media

1:00:29.400 --> 1:00:31.120
<v Speaker 1>when they put out stories like this. I just can't

1:00:31.120 --> 1:00:34.720
<v Speaker 1>believe it. How are we supposed to trust them? Good,

1:00:34.760 --> 1:00:38.840
<v Speaker 1>good question, Congressman Crunshaw. We're not supposed to trust them though,

1:00:39.320 --> 1:00:43.400
<v Speaker 1>or we should not trust them. The Trump administration to

1:00:43.400 --> 1:00:46.080
<v Speaker 1>send migrant children a former Japanese internment camps. That's the

1:00:46.120 --> 1:00:49.760
<v Speaker 1>Time magazine piece. And what you find out if you

1:00:49.840 --> 1:00:51.720
<v Speaker 1>read down a little bit, is that, Oh wait, the

1:00:51.760 --> 1:00:56.280
<v Speaker 1>Health and Human Services Department under the Obama administration also

1:00:56.440 --> 1:01:00.400
<v Speaker 1>used Fort Sill as a temporary emergency shelter for children

1:01:00.440 --> 1:01:04.320
<v Speaker 1>attained at the border. That's right, the Obama administration send

1:01:04.440 --> 1:01:06.840
<v Speaker 1>children to this site. Did anyone ever say in the

1:01:06.880 --> 1:01:12.680
<v Speaker 1>media Obama sending refugee kids to same place used as

1:01:12.800 --> 1:01:19.920
<v Speaker 1>Japanese internment camp? No, that was never Why is that, folks?

1:01:20.760 --> 1:01:23.080
<v Speaker 1>Why did that never come up? Why was that never said?

1:01:23.200 --> 1:01:25.000
<v Speaker 1>You know the answer. It's just fun to ask the

1:01:25.080 --> 1:01:33.480
<v Speaker 1>question rhetorically, isn't it. No, And then you have the

1:01:33.520 --> 1:01:37.080
<v Speaker 1>other reality that Fort Sill is a very large US

1:01:37.120 --> 1:01:41.000
<v Speaker 1>military base and has been in continuous operation I think

1:01:41.080 --> 1:01:45.480
<v Speaker 1>since the mid nineteenth century. So a lot of stuff

1:01:45.520 --> 1:01:47.760
<v Speaker 1>goes on at Fort Sill. A lot of stuff happens there,

1:01:47.800 --> 1:01:52.320
<v Speaker 1>you know. I'm I'm going to New York City this weekend.

1:01:52.440 --> 1:01:53.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna be a New York City for the weekend,

1:01:53.920 --> 1:01:56.760
<v Speaker 1>a visit family and be with my pops for Father's Day.

1:01:57.880 --> 1:02:03.320
<v Speaker 1>And you could describe that as, you know, buck Sexton

1:02:03.680 --> 1:02:07.439
<v Speaker 1>going to the city stolen from Native Americans for like

1:02:07.920 --> 1:02:11.000
<v Speaker 1>whatever was a few dozen dollars in some wampum or something.

1:02:11.720 --> 1:02:13.560
<v Speaker 1>But that's kind of a weird way to describe it.

1:02:13.600 --> 1:02:15.440
<v Speaker 1>Is a lot of other stuff has happened in New

1:02:15.480 --> 1:02:18.880
<v Speaker 1>York since then, And if you describe it that way

1:02:19.320 --> 1:02:22.080
<v Speaker 1>out of nowhere, wouldn't that tell everyone a lot about

1:02:22.120 --> 1:02:25.680
<v Speaker 1>what you are? You know, you have some agenda, buck

1:02:25.720 --> 1:02:29.400
<v Speaker 1>Sexton heading to stolen Indian Land for the weekend, also

1:02:29.480 --> 1:02:34.240
<v Speaker 1>known as New York City. Okay, well, I mean, I

1:02:34.240 --> 1:02:37.960
<v Speaker 1>guess that's technically true, but it's not really how I

1:02:37.960 --> 1:02:41.320
<v Speaker 1>would think of things. You know, this is the absurdity

1:02:41.360 --> 1:02:45.160
<v Speaker 1>of the media, though for them, accuracy now turns into

1:02:47.080 --> 1:02:49.720
<v Speaker 1>any any question, who's this person? You could say, someone

1:02:49.760 --> 1:02:52.800
<v Speaker 1>who's never been in my kitchen? Remember that from was

1:02:52.800 --> 1:02:55.920
<v Speaker 1>it Norman Cheers? I've set it before the show? I

1:02:55.960 --> 1:02:59.040
<v Speaker 1>forget technically true, you could say that about any number

1:02:59.040 --> 1:03:00.760
<v Speaker 1>of people. Someone who's never been in my kitchen, but

1:03:00.800 --> 1:03:03.760
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't really tell you much. That was him doing trebec.

1:03:04.120 --> 1:03:06.880
<v Speaker 1>That's that's right. That was in uh jein all I

1:03:06.960 --> 1:03:09.200
<v Speaker 1>think right, yeah, no, that was that was in uh No,

1:03:09.320 --> 1:03:11.000
<v Speaker 1>that was on the real cheers. I think he was

1:03:11.080 --> 1:03:14.240
<v Speaker 1>on right or no. I thought it was him when

1:03:14.240 --> 1:03:17.400
<v Speaker 1>he was playing alc Trebec. I think it was in

1:03:17.440 --> 1:03:19.280
<v Speaker 1>the real chair. I don't know, wasn't it. We'll track

1:03:19.320 --> 1:03:21.760
<v Speaker 1>it down. We'll track it down. Oh, I'm speaking to

1:03:21.800 --> 1:03:23.680
<v Speaker 1>track it down. Track us down in a second. We'll

1:03:23.680 --> 1:03:27.160
<v Speaker 1>be right back. What is going on in the Dominican Republic.

1:03:28.240 --> 1:03:30.840
<v Speaker 1>I've been to the DR a few times when I

1:03:30.880 --> 1:03:33.040
<v Speaker 1>was very young. I barely remember it. I went with

1:03:33.040 --> 1:03:35.760
<v Speaker 1>my family. I think I went once or twice. Maybe

1:03:35.760 --> 1:03:39.120
<v Speaker 1>it was twice. Uh And it's getting all of this

1:03:39.160 --> 1:03:42.200
<v Speaker 1>attention for all the wrong reasons these days. This is

1:03:42.360 --> 1:03:46.600
<v Speaker 1>Fox News today is in the spotlight because there have

1:03:46.680 --> 1:03:50.720
<v Speaker 1>been a series of deaths. For this year two last year,

1:03:50.760 --> 1:03:56.400
<v Speaker 1>at least six American tourists have died on vacation in

1:03:56.440 --> 1:04:01.760
<v Speaker 1>the Dominican Republic, and some of them in really suspicious

1:04:01.760 --> 1:04:07.280
<v Speaker 1>and weird circumstances. Here, you had David Harrison, forty five

1:04:07.320 --> 1:04:09.600
<v Speaker 1>of Merrill. This was last summer checks in the hard

1:04:09.680 --> 1:04:12.440
<v Speaker 1>Rock Hotel and Casino in Punta Kana. He and his

1:04:12.440 --> 1:04:14.160
<v Speaker 1>wife are there at the twelve year old son for

1:04:14.200 --> 1:04:17.800
<v Speaker 1>several days. Harrison starts to feel ill. The next day,

1:04:17.800 --> 1:04:19.720
<v Speaker 1>after lying in bed still not feeling well, he decides

1:04:19.720 --> 1:04:22.400
<v Speaker 1>to join his wife in the hotel casino. He notices

1:04:22.400 --> 1:04:25.360
<v Speaker 1>a strange smell. Very spoke. Oh sorry. The wife notices

1:04:25.360 --> 1:04:28.480
<v Speaker 1>a strange smell coming from her husband. He begins to

1:04:28.520 --> 1:04:30.480
<v Speaker 1>feel ill, returns to the room. She calls for an

1:04:30.520 --> 1:04:35.000
<v Speaker 1>ambulance and he dies. Well. They say he had a

1:04:35.040 --> 1:04:37.840
<v Speaker 1>heart attack. But her husband was very fit, very healthy person,

1:04:38.720 --> 1:04:41.840
<v Speaker 1>and a bunch of these, a bunch of people Americans

1:04:41.840 --> 1:04:46.000
<v Speaker 1>have all died of these same causes or similar circumstances.

1:04:46.000 --> 1:04:48.360
<v Speaker 1>They're very sketchy. Producer, Mike, do you have a theory

1:04:48.440 --> 1:04:52.160
<v Speaker 1>on this? Have you ever been in the dr Producer?

1:04:53.360 --> 1:04:56.440
<v Speaker 1>And I don't think I'm ever gonna go. This is

1:04:56.480 --> 1:04:58.560
<v Speaker 1>not making me want to sign up, I've got to say.

1:04:58.600 --> 1:05:00.320
<v Speaker 1>And I feel bad because it's one of these countries

1:05:00.320 --> 1:05:04.440
<v Speaker 1>where about twenty percent of the entire GDP and twenty

1:05:04.480 --> 1:05:06.920
<v Speaker 1>percent of their whole economy comes from tourism. So if

1:05:06.960 --> 1:05:09.880
<v Speaker 1>tourism starts off and you think about Aruba, which is

1:05:09.880 --> 1:05:12.080
<v Speaker 1>a place that I've been to, which I will tell

1:05:12.080 --> 1:05:15.760
<v Speaker 1>you is gorgeous and basically stress free vacation in terms

1:05:15.800 --> 1:05:19.360
<v Speaker 1>of it's incredibly safe. The water is clean, there's no crime. Really,

1:05:19.920 --> 1:05:24.480
<v Speaker 1>the doctors on the island are like Dutch trained and excellent,

1:05:24.680 --> 1:05:26.920
<v Speaker 1>and like it's a very orderly clean place, and it's

1:05:26.920 --> 1:05:29.960
<v Speaker 1>beautiful and like the food is great. You know, they

1:05:30.040 --> 1:05:33.400
<v Speaker 1>lost Natalie Holloway got killed basically by this, by that psycho,

1:05:33.760 --> 1:05:35.400
<v Speaker 1>and people didn't want to remember that. By the way,

1:05:35.560 --> 1:05:37.600
<v Speaker 1>Gret event Sustern, I remember being in what was it

1:05:37.720 --> 1:05:40.440
<v Speaker 1>high school or something and Gret event Suster your night,

1:05:40.480 --> 1:05:43.760
<v Speaker 1>We've grap gate. You're Natalie Halloway. You know, every night

1:05:43.800 --> 1:05:45.840
<v Speaker 1>it was like a Natalie Holloway update. And you know,

1:05:45.840 --> 1:05:48.480
<v Speaker 1>the tourism dropped off after that. Dude, people didn't want

1:05:48.480 --> 1:05:50.400
<v Speaker 1>to go. I don't blame that, this this one. That's

1:05:50.400 --> 1:05:52.280
<v Speaker 1>this one event. And on top of everything you're mentioning

1:05:52.360 --> 1:05:57.640
<v Speaker 1>in the drum, big Poppy got shot. Oh that's right. Yeah,

1:05:57.760 --> 1:06:00.200
<v Speaker 1>it was about sports and they I saw the one

1:06:00.200 --> 1:06:03.280
<v Speaker 1>they paid Yeah eight that they paid the hitmen eight

1:06:03.280 --> 1:06:05.720
<v Speaker 1>thousand dollars. Yeah, it was like in There's like it

1:06:05.760 --> 1:06:09.040
<v Speaker 1>was a definitely an assassination attempt on him, and he wasn't.

1:06:09.160 --> 1:06:11.480
<v Speaker 1>I think it was an assassinate Big Poppy. I don't know, man,

1:06:11.560 --> 1:06:14.160
<v Speaker 1>he's a lovable guy. I don't even get it. That

1:06:14.160 --> 1:06:15.400
<v Speaker 1>takes a lot for me to say about a Red

1:06:15.400 --> 1:06:17.000
<v Speaker 1>Sox guy. But you gotta love I was gonna say,

1:06:17.000 --> 1:06:18.880
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you're a Philly guy and even you respect

1:06:18.880 --> 1:06:21.000
<v Speaker 1>Big Pop and it's just crazy someone's gonna try to

1:06:21.480 --> 1:06:24.320
<v Speaker 1>shot the guy in the back eight thousand dollars. But

1:06:24.320 --> 1:06:26.120
<v Speaker 1>you know what's what's really scary is when you look

1:06:26.120 --> 1:06:29.840
<v Speaker 1>at the stats for how how little it costs usually

1:06:29.880 --> 1:06:33.400
<v Speaker 1>to pay for a hit on somebody. By the numbers,

1:06:33.640 --> 1:06:36.440
<v Speaker 1>the lowest ever in the world, in the kind of

1:06:36.480 --> 1:06:38.760
<v Speaker 1>open black will not open, but in the in a

1:06:38.840 --> 1:06:41.840
<v Speaker 1>consistent black market I read was at the height of

1:06:41.840 --> 1:06:45.800
<v Speaker 1>the violence in in Warez, the average hit, i mean,

1:06:45.800 --> 1:06:49.400
<v Speaker 1>the average cartel hit on a person was the hitman

1:06:49.520 --> 1:06:53.120
<v Speaker 1>was paid seventy dollars, which is just astonishing that actually

1:06:53.160 --> 1:06:55.120
<v Speaker 1>came from a man yone Grillo in one of his books,

1:06:55.160 --> 1:06:58.720
<v Speaker 1>I was like, Wow, seventy bucks, dude, seventy bucks. Somebody

1:06:58.760 --> 1:07:01.160
<v Speaker 1>will walk up and just pop somebody, no, no questions asked.

1:07:01.160 --> 1:07:04.120
<v Speaker 1>Think about that crazy world, right? I mean eight thousand

1:07:04.200 --> 1:07:06.200
<v Speaker 1>is still I mean, first of all, who goes and

1:07:06.240 --> 1:07:08.920
<v Speaker 1>shoot somebody that don't know under any circumstances. Eight thousand

1:07:08.920 --> 1:07:11.440
<v Speaker 1>dollars seems like a shockingly low figure to go and

1:07:11.880 --> 1:07:14.480
<v Speaker 1>shoot any human being in the back. But and then

1:07:14.520 --> 1:07:16.800
<v Speaker 1>you add into that this guy's incredibly famous. You're obviously

1:07:16.920 --> 1:07:18.680
<v Speaker 1>gonna get caught and go to prison forever. It just

1:07:18.680 --> 1:07:21.240
<v Speaker 1>seems I don't know, man, I don't know if Big

1:07:21.240 --> 1:07:23.760
<v Speaker 1>Poppy had some like sketchy associates or something. I haven't

1:07:23.800 --> 1:07:26.880
<v Speaker 1>seen anything about that though, But really bad press, and

1:07:27.120 --> 1:07:28.760
<v Speaker 1>I was looking to maybe go away for a week

1:07:28.760 --> 1:07:31.000
<v Speaker 1>in the summer to a beach somewhere, and I feel bad.

1:07:31.040 --> 1:07:34.000
<v Speaker 1>I think Dr Dude low on the list right now? Yes?

1:07:34.360 --> 1:07:37.280
<v Speaker 1>Good in New Jersey much safer Jersey Shore. I don't

1:07:37.280 --> 1:07:39.680
<v Speaker 1>know this Jersey Shore safer. I don't know. I don't know.

1:07:39.760 --> 1:07:43.160
<v Speaker 1>Producer Mike Clain, flip maybe what's the closest what's the

1:07:43.160 --> 1:07:45.400
<v Speaker 1>closest beach to Philly? Where do Philly people go to

1:07:45.440 --> 1:07:47.640
<v Speaker 1>the beach. So where do we go? Yeah, South Jersey.

1:07:47.680 --> 1:07:51.160
<v Speaker 1>Well we'll head down the Atlantic Expressway instead of making

1:07:51.160 --> 1:07:54.240
<v Speaker 1>a left and going north, we'll go south and avalon

1:07:54.320 --> 1:07:57.440
<v Speaker 1>Stone Harbor, Kpe. May you know, you know, you know,

1:07:57.480 --> 1:08:01.680
<v Speaker 1>we like to call that, what's that classy? Yeah right,

1:08:01.880 --> 1:08:04.520
<v Speaker 1>it's classy. It's how it's how we do it on

1:08:04.520 --> 1:08:07.040
<v Speaker 1>the weekends. Now we do exactly. Yeah. Yeah, here, indeed,

1:08:07.040 --> 1:08:09.040
<v Speaker 1>everyone's got there a little weekend getaway stuff. On the

1:08:09.080 --> 1:08:12.600
<v Speaker 1>East Coast DC, it's all Maryland Shore pretty much. People

1:08:12.640 --> 1:08:14.600
<v Speaker 1>gone then of course in New York it's out east,

1:08:14.640 --> 1:08:16.640
<v Speaker 1>which is a fancy way of saying Long Island and

1:08:16.720 --> 1:08:19.160
<v Speaker 1>the Hampton's. But you've gotta be even if you're not

1:08:19.160 --> 1:08:20.800
<v Speaker 1>taking a helicopter, you better be ready to sitt in

1:08:20.800 --> 1:08:22.600
<v Speaker 1>traffic for a very long time. But anyway, what's the

1:08:22.640 --> 1:08:25.759
<v Speaker 1>next what's the next beach destination on producer Mike's radar

1:08:25.880 --> 1:08:27.680
<v Speaker 1>that is not the Dominican Republic. Yeah, I think I'm

1:08:27.680 --> 1:08:30.240
<v Speaker 1>gonna go actually to Kate may Um at some point

1:08:30.240 --> 1:08:32.200
<v Speaker 1>this summer. I haven't been there in a while, so

1:08:32.240 --> 1:08:34.800
<v Speaker 1>I have a friend who lives down there, and I

1:08:34.840 --> 1:08:36.719
<v Speaker 1>think I'm gonna go do a little Kate may action.

1:08:36.800 --> 1:08:38.879
<v Speaker 1>Just a question, producer, Mark, did you get the invitation

1:08:38.960 --> 1:08:41.559
<v Speaker 1>from producer Mike to his little beach junk because I

1:08:41.600 --> 1:08:43.760
<v Speaker 1>did not. I did not either. I'm I'm the host,

1:08:43.760 --> 1:08:45.920
<v Speaker 1>you're the technical producer. I feel like you know we

1:08:45.960 --> 1:08:49.000
<v Speaker 1>should be at least notified when the beach party happened. Man,

1:08:49.000 --> 1:08:52.280
<v Speaker 1>I'll send pictures. Let it, Derek. Here we go. Now,

1:08:52.600 --> 1:08:54.559
<v Speaker 1>now you all know what producer Mike isn't here. He's

1:08:54.560 --> 1:08:58.120
<v Speaker 1>setting up the real the real attendees, the female attendees

1:08:58.160 --> 1:09:00.800
<v Speaker 1>for his beach parties. That's whatever. I call out his name,

1:09:00.840 --> 1:09:02.280
<v Speaker 1>and he's not in the studio. We know, we know

1:09:02.320 --> 1:09:06.320
<v Speaker 1>what's actually what's actually going go it totalized, Man, No,

1:09:06.479 --> 1:09:08.240
<v Speaker 1>k K I Actually I was trying to get down

1:09:08.240 --> 1:09:10.479
<v Speaker 1>to DC once a long time ago, and I got stuck.

1:09:10.760 --> 1:09:14.600
<v Speaker 1>I missed the last ferry out of Cape May, New Jersey,

1:09:14.800 --> 1:09:17.320
<v Speaker 1>and and if you missed that ferry, and it's a

1:09:17.520 --> 1:09:21.080
<v Speaker 1>holiday weekend, you have to drive all the way like

1:09:21.320 --> 1:09:23.800
<v Speaker 1>up north and around and it's a total nightmare. So

1:09:23.800 --> 1:09:26.080
<v Speaker 1>we actually ended up crashing. It's a really cute little town.

1:09:26.160 --> 1:09:28.240
<v Speaker 1>I liked it. Yeah, it's nice, it's it's it's clean,

1:09:28.360 --> 1:09:31.680
<v Speaker 1>it's fun, it's um you have really good restaurants, really

1:09:31.720 --> 1:09:34.160
<v Speaker 1>clean beaches. What's the best beach you've ever been to?

1:09:34.360 --> 1:09:36.280
<v Speaker 1>Since we're into the sort of summer season hearing people

1:09:36.320 --> 1:09:38.400
<v Speaker 1>thinking about maybe getting away for a weekend. Best beach

1:09:38.439 --> 1:09:41.120
<v Speaker 1>you've ever been to in the United States? In the US? Okay,

1:09:41.560 --> 1:09:44.799
<v Speaker 1>I probably would say recently it was in San Diego

1:09:45.040 --> 1:09:48.640
<v Speaker 1>and it was at the Hotel del and it was

1:09:48.680 --> 1:09:51.200
<v Speaker 1>beautiful there. I'd say their beaches were really, really nice.

1:09:51.520 --> 1:09:53.360
<v Speaker 1>San Diego's great. I don't know a a lot more people

1:09:53.400 --> 1:09:56.200
<v Speaker 1>don't live there. Fantastic. I mean I feel like it's

1:09:56.880 --> 1:09:59.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, you think La is so much more overcrowded.

1:09:59.080 --> 1:10:01.040
<v Speaker 1>It feels like than Sa Diego, and the beach in

1:10:01.120 --> 1:10:04.200
<v Speaker 1>San Diego is way better than the beach in l A. Absolutely,

1:10:04.200 --> 1:10:06.640
<v Speaker 1>it's quiet, there's not a whole lot of people, you

1:10:06.720 --> 1:10:08.800
<v Speaker 1>have to deal with any of the riff raft that

1:10:08.800 --> 1:10:11.200
<v Speaker 1>you do up north. That's really a trick question, though,

1:10:11.240 --> 1:10:12.720
<v Speaker 1>because the answer to what's the best beach in the

1:10:12.800 --> 1:10:14.479
<v Speaker 1>United States, in my opinion, it always has to be

1:10:14.520 --> 1:10:17.440
<v Speaker 1>something in Hawaii, but people don't think of that right away. Yeah,

1:10:17.840 --> 1:10:20.280
<v Speaker 1>if Florida is nice, I like pomp Mark where are

1:10:20.280 --> 1:10:22.559
<v Speaker 1>you win on this one? I mean, I haven't been

1:10:22.600 --> 1:10:24.320
<v Speaker 1>to many beaches outside of New York, so I'm gonna

1:10:24.320 --> 1:10:25.519
<v Speaker 1>have to go with the one that's a block from

1:10:25.560 --> 1:10:28.360
<v Speaker 1>my house in Long Beach. Oh look what he just did, dude,

1:10:28.400 --> 1:10:32.600
<v Speaker 1>He just bigfooted us with the beach, a beach a

1:10:32.680 --> 1:10:35.439
<v Speaker 1>block from his house. He's like, you suckers have to

1:10:35.560 --> 1:10:37.920
<v Speaker 1>drive or fly. I just roll out of bed and

1:10:37.960 --> 1:10:40.760
<v Speaker 1>go to the greatest beach ever producer mark for the win.

1:10:40.920 --> 1:10:43.400
<v Speaker 1>I gotta say, buddy, you came through there in the clutch.

1:10:43.520 --> 1:10:46.320
<v Speaker 1>Look at that. You never become the best at anything

1:10:46.360 --> 1:10:51.080
<v Speaker 1>by facing a mediocre opponent. The person you're really competing

1:10:51.080 --> 1:10:56.200
<v Speaker 1>against is yourself. He waits. That's when you've learned who

1:10:56.200 --> 1:10:59.639
<v Speaker 1>you really are. The guy you were last time isn't

1:10:59.640 --> 1:11:04.400
<v Speaker 1>the best of you. For god, you aren't ours. I

1:11:04.439 --> 1:11:07.320
<v Speaker 1>would just tell people, and I do tell people, just

1:11:07.600 --> 1:11:11.080
<v Speaker 1>get out and try it. It can be super scary,

1:11:11.400 --> 1:11:15.400
<v Speaker 1>but there's so many connections friendships that you can make

1:11:15.520 --> 1:11:21.400
<v Speaker 1>through adapted sports. How far can you push yourself? How

1:11:21.400 --> 1:11:24.000
<v Speaker 1>far can we set that bar for you and your teammates,

1:11:24.040 --> 1:11:25.800
<v Speaker 1>but also for those who are coming out behind us.

1:11:27.120 --> 1:11:30.519
<v Speaker 1>If we explore and push the limits right now, how

1:11:30.600 --> 1:11:32.759
<v Speaker 1>much further when you put this thing and in the future,

1:11:33.439 --> 1:11:35.920
<v Speaker 1>push your limits and bring it. You may not feel

1:11:35.920 --> 1:11:40.479
<v Speaker 1>like you aren't like everybody else, That's okay, Keep pushing forward,

1:11:40.840 --> 1:11:44.280
<v Speaker 1>see where the road will lead. You may not feel

1:11:44.320 --> 1:11:47.040
<v Speaker 1>like you're perfect, so that doesn't mean you can't be

1:11:47.120 --> 1:11:51.040
<v Speaker 1>where you want to be. That is some promotional video

1:11:51.120 --> 1:11:55.880
<v Speaker 1>from the Warrior Games. Warrior Games are the Olympics for

1:11:56.400 --> 1:12:00.120
<v Speaker 1>wounded and sick veterans. I want to bring on some

1:12:00.120 --> 1:12:03.519
<v Speaker 1>folks who can tell you exactly what this organization, what

1:12:03.680 --> 1:12:06.719
<v Speaker 1>this athletic competition is all about. By the way, June

1:12:06.840 --> 1:12:09.439
<v Speaker 1>twenty first to thirtieth is in Tampa, is when the

1:12:09.439 --> 1:12:12.479
<v Speaker 1>Warrior Games occur. To tell us about this, we have

1:12:12.560 --> 1:12:17.040
<v Speaker 1>Israel Del Toro, an Air Force Senior Master Sergeant Army

1:12:17.120 --> 1:12:22.560
<v Speaker 1>Colonel Carrie Harball, director of the Warrior Games, and Travis Clayder,

1:12:22.760 --> 1:12:26.719
<v Speaker 1>director of Communications for the Warrior Games. Travis Carry and Israel,

1:12:26.720 --> 1:12:28.479
<v Speaker 1>thanks so much for joining otor to be with your

1:12:28.479 --> 1:12:30.479
<v Speaker 1>Thanks for us here all right, So just given a

1:12:30.479 --> 1:12:34.559
<v Speaker 1>little background, why don't we start with Carrie for a

1:12:34.600 --> 1:12:36.680
<v Speaker 1>moment here. Carrie, just give us a little background on

1:12:37.000 --> 1:12:40.320
<v Speaker 1>how the Warrior games came together and what this is

1:12:40.320 --> 1:12:43.840
<v Speaker 1>all about. Sure, Warrior Games have been around now about

1:12:44.760 --> 1:12:47.280
<v Speaker 1>almost ten years. Started off sort of as an inter

1:12:47.360 --> 1:12:51.200
<v Speaker 1>mural activity with the Department Offense partnered with the Olympic

1:12:51.240 --> 1:12:54.280
<v Speaker 1>Training Center out in Colorado Springs, and we joked that

1:12:54.720 --> 1:12:56.680
<v Speaker 1>back then it was kind of, you know, white T

1:12:56.840 --> 1:12:59.400
<v Speaker 1>shirts with our team names written in crayons on them,

1:12:59.400 --> 1:13:01.599
<v Speaker 1>because it was wasn't much to it as we tried

1:13:01.600 --> 1:13:03.559
<v Speaker 1>to figure out figure our way out of how to

1:13:03.560 --> 1:13:06.320
<v Speaker 1>do a Paralympic event for our wounded warriors from all

1:13:06.320 --> 1:13:09.759
<v Speaker 1>the service programs plus special operations where that fifth fifth

1:13:09.800 --> 1:13:13.559
<v Speaker 1>program that the Department Offense and Congress recognize, and so

1:13:14.120 --> 1:13:17.320
<v Speaker 1>it evolved over time, and in twenty fifteen we did

1:13:17.320 --> 1:13:21.160
<v Speaker 1>the first iteration of a pure DoD run Warrior game

1:13:21.200 --> 1:13:24.880
<v Speaker 1>without the Olympic Training Center's partnership, and we took that

1:13:24.960 --> 1:13:26.880
<v Speaker 1>to a quantico in The Marine Corps were the hosts.

1:13:27.240 --> 1:13:29.840
<v Speaker 1>Then it drifted to twenty sixteen to West Point, the

1:13:29.920 --> 1:13:32.879
<v Speaker 1>Army were the hosts, then to Chicago in twenty seventeen

1:13:32.920 --> 1:13:36.160
<v Speaker 1>with the Navy, twenty eighteen out in Colorado Springs with

1:13:36.240 --> 1:13:38.280
<v Speaker 1>the Air Force, and then it was our turn the

1:13:38.560 --> 1:13:42.479
<v Speaker 1>Special Operations Command, and we turned to our community that

1:13:42.560 --> 1:13:44.880
<v Speaker 1>we're closest too, because our headquarters is located there at

1:13:44.920 --> 1:13:47.280
<v Speaker 1>McDill Air Force Base in Florida, and we knew that

1:13:47.320 --> 1:13:50.240
<v Speaker 1>we had incredibly generous community in the Tampa Bay area

1:13:50.280 --> 1:13:54.120
<v Speaker 1>that really embraces the active duty and veteran service members

1:13:54.120 --> 1:13:56.280
<v Speaker 1>in their families and that would be the perfect location

1:13:56.400 --> 1:13:58.800
<v Speaker 1>for our Warrior Games twenty nineteen. And that's what we've done.

1:13:58.840 --> 1:14:01.760
<v Speaker 1>We brought it in there. Three hundred athletes coming into town,

1:14:02.160 --> 1:14:04.880
<v Speaker 1>two hundred US because each of the five programs bring

1:14:04.880 --> 1:14:08.719
<v Speaker 1>in forty athlete team size, and then about one hundred

1:14:08.720 --> 1:14:11.360
<v Speaker 1>foreign partner athletes because we've added to our games the

1:14:11.360 --> 1:14:15.320
<v Speaker 1>foreign partners over the years, and we've got the UK, Australia, Canada,

1:14:15.439 --> 1:14:18.360
<v Speaker 1>the Netherlands and in Denmark all coming in for this

1:14:18.400 --> 1:14:22.040
<v Speaker 1>with about one hundred athletes total. Master Sergeant Master Sergeant

1:14:22.080 --> 1:14:23.680
<v Speaker 1>del Toro, if I could ask you, how did you

1:14:23.720 --> 1:14:26.240
<v Speaker 1>get involved in this? Well, I've been part of it

1:14:26.280 --> 1:14:29.920
<v Speaker 1>since the beginning. Back in twenty ten. I was I

1:14:29.920 --> 1:14:34.320
<v Speaker 1>had just finally re enlisted, came back in the military,

1:14:34.680 --> 1:14:38.800
<v Speaker 1>and the Air Force had asked me where you participate

1:14:38.880 --> 1:14:42.799
<v Speaker 1>in this? To kind of show hope for other service

1:14:42.840 --> 1:14:46.920
<v Speaker 1>members who are injured or wounded. For the folks listening

1:14:47.040 --> 1:14:50.679
<v Speaker 1>is Rael, what happened to you? I got hurt December

1:14:50.720 --> 1:14:54.040
<v Speaker 1>two thousand and five. I was in an ID explosion

1:14:54.560 --> 1:14:58.760
<v Speaker 1>at the bomb explode underneath my home v and I

1:14:58.880 --> 1:15:01.800
<v Speaker 1>received third degree burns an eighty percent of my body,

1:15:02.600 --> 1:15:08.080
<v Speaker 1>lost my fingers on both hands, and I have a

1:15:08.160 --> 1:15:11.280
<v Speaker 1>sensitivity to the heat and cold now because of the

1:15:11.840 --> 1:15:15.560
<v Speaker 1>loss of the two layer of scan that I had.

1:15:16.840 --> 1:15:19.639
<v Speaker 1>And you were able to come back from that injury

1:15:19.960 --> 1:15:23.839
<v Speaker 1>and that you received while in combat and re enlished

1:15:23.920 --> 1:15:27.720
<v Speaker 1>and even competed in these athletic games. Yes, sir, So

1:15:27.840 --> 1:15:31.240
<v Speaker 1>they gave me a fifteen percent chance to survive my injuries,

1:15:31.280 --> 1:15:33.479
<v Speaker 1>and you know it was in coming four months and

1:15:34.120 --> 1:15:36.479
<v Speaker 1>you know I woke up. They gave me the green diagnosis,

1:15:36.600 --> 1:15:38.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, never walk again, restoring the rest of my

1:15:38.400 --> 1:15:41.880
<v Speaker 1>life military crewer pretty much over and be stuck in

1:15:41.880 --> 1:15:44.240
<v Speaker 1>the hospital for another year and a half. And two

1:15:44.240 --> 1:15:46.600
<v Speaker 1>months after they told me that, I I left that

1:15:46.680 --> 1:15:49.200
<v Speaker 1>hospital walking and breathing them my own end. And I

1:15:49.200 --> 1:15:52.559
<v Speaker 1>wanted to continue to serve my country because people always

1:15:52.600 --> 1:15:55.559
<v Speaker 1>ask me why it's like you can retire and make

1:15:55.880 --> 1:15:59.080
<v Speaker 1>so much orange money as a retired guy. But you know,

1:15:59.280 --> 1:16:01.599
<v Speaker 1>it's not about money. I love my job, I love

1:16:01.640 --> 1:16:03.640
<v Speaker 1>certain my country, I love in the Air Force, I

1:16:03.680 --> 1:16:07.040
<v Speaker 1>love being with my teammates. You know, I know plenty

1:16:07.080 --> 1:16:09.479
<v Speaker 1>of people out there that have great paying jobs and

1:16:09.479 --> 1:16:11.880
<v Speaker 1>they just hate their job. So why am I going

1:16:11.920 --> 1:16:14.439
<v Speaker 1>to give up a job that I truly love? And

1:16:14.520 --> 1:16:18.200
<v Speaker 1>so I fought and February of twenty ten, you know,

1:16:18.200 --> 1:16:20.280
<v Speaker 1>I became the first one hundred percent disabled airman to

1:16:20.320 --> 1:16:22.760
<v Speaker 1>ever realist in the Air Force. And since then, I've

1:16:22.800 --> 1:16:27.040
<v Speaker 1>just been pushing myself to trying to show not only

1:16:27.800 --> 1:16:30.639
<v Speaker 1>service members who are hurt, injured, ill, but anyone out

1:16:30.680 --> 1:16:34.120
<v Speaker 1>there in the world that's having a bad day and saying, man,

1:16:33.920 --> 1:16:36.599
<v Speaker 1>you can get through this. Just stay positive, believe in yourself,

1:16:36.600 --> 1:16:39.320
<v Speaker 1>and you will overcome it. And that's what I've been

1:16:39.360 --> 1:16:42.320
<v Speaker 1>doing since then and Israel and this is all remarkable

1:16:42.400 --> 1:16:44.920
<v Speaker 1>off on its own and inspiring for everyone to hear.

1:16:45.080 --> 1:16:49.800
<v Speaker 1>But you also now compete in athletic events. What's your event? Well,

1:16:50.200 --> 1:16:52.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm not sure right now, because I think they might

1:16:52.439 --> 1:16:54.840
<v Speaker 1>have signed me up for the Ultimate Champion, meaning I'll

1:16:54.840 --> 1:16:58.080
<v Speaker 1>be doing like about ten events. But if not, I'll

1:16:58.120 --> 1:17:04.040
<v Speaker 1>be still doing a lot. I'll be cycling, shooting, shot put,

1:17:04.040 --> 1:17:09.560
<v Speaker 1>this kiss one hundred meter dash, sitting, volleyball, and powerlifting

1:17:09.600 --> 1:17:13.280
<v Speaker 1>and rowing. Wow, I wrote a little bit in college,

1:17:13.280 --> 1:17:16.519
<v Speaker 1>so rowing is uh, you gotta really want to do

1:17:16.560 --> 1:17:18.880
<v Speaker 1>it to be rowing. Yeah, I'm actually pretty psychic, least

1:17:18.880 --> 1:17:23.000
<v Speaker 1>the powerlifting because just the other day I did a

1:17:23.040 --> 1:17:24.840
<v Speaker 1>new max had two hundred and fifty pounds on the

1:17:24.880 --> 1:17:29.400
<v Speaker 1>bench prints. That's the most sense maybe being hurt. So

1:17:29.439 --> 1:17:33.040
<v Speaker 1>that was pretty over milestone graduate. Congratulations on that. I

1:17:33.040 --> 1:17:34.439
<v Speaker 1>think a lot of the guys listening like, man, I

1:17:34.400 --> 1:17:37.040
<v Speaker 1>gotta get back to the gym, Travis. I want to

1:17:37.080 --> 1:17:39.360
<v Speaker 1>ask you just for for everybody across the country who's

1:17:39.360 --> 1:17:40.960
<v Speaker 1>hearing about this, A lot of them is probably the

1:17:40.960 --> 1:17:44.400
<v Speaker 1>first time, although we have a really really large current

1:17:44.439 --> 1:17:48.840
<v Speaker 1>and former military listenership. But the Warrior Games for those

1:17:48.880 --> 1:17:51.360
<v Speaker 1>who want to either be a part of it by

1:17:51.479 --> 1:17:55.519
<v Speaker 1>showing up or watching it or just supporting the Warrior

1:17:55.560 --> 1:17:57.559
<v Speaker 1>Games and this this whole effort, what do people need

1:17:57.600 --> 1:18:00.800
<v Speaker 1>to know? Sure, Well, like you've mentioned, the game, start

1:18:00.920 --> 1:18:03.520
<v Speaker 1>June twenty onet and run for the next ten days.

1:18:03.560 --> 1:18:05.320
<v Speaker 1>The biggest thing that we can ask people to do

1:18:05.400 --> 1:18:07.320
<v Speaker 1>is come out in person if you're in the area,

1:18:07.360 --> 1:18:10.000
<v Speaker 1>if you're visiting Tampa Bay, right, yea. So it's held

1:18:10.000 --> 1:18:12.519
<v Speaker 1>down in Tampa Bay, it's out in the community. It's

1:18:12.560 --> 1:18:14.559
<v Speaker 1>free and open to the public. So the best thing

1:18:14.640 --> 1:18:15.600
<v Speaker 1>you can do if you want to come out and

1:18:15.640 --> 1:18:18.920
<v Speaker 1>support these wounded warriors, these heroes, is come out to

1:18:19.320 --> 1:18:21.800
<v Speaker 1>the events. Come out to the athletic events, and cheer

1:18:21.880 --> 1:18:25.240
<v Speaker 1>them on. That's the biggest way you can show your

1:18:25.240 --> 1:18:29.160
<v Speaker 1>support and honor these guys, these men and women. So yeah,

1:18:29.200 --> 1:18:31.960
<v Speaker 1>if you're in the area, stop out. It's over the

1:18:32.000 --> 1:18:35.920
<v Speaker 1>course of ten days across various venues and as DT

1:18:36.160 --> 1:18:39.000
<v Speaker 1>was saying, a lot of different sports. So no matter

1:18:39.080 --> 1:18:41.600
<v Speaker 1>what you're into from an athletic standpoint, or if you

1:18:41.640 --> 1:18:43.479
<v Speaker 1>just want to come out support the military, there's something

1:18:44.000 --> 1:18:46.960
<v Speaker 1>some amazing competition to come out and watch. If you're

1:18:47.000 --> 1:18:48.800
<v Speaker 1>not in the area, it's going to be live stream.

1:18:48.880 --> 1:18:52.160
<v Speaker 1>So we're live streaming most about eighty to ninety percent

1:18:52.200 --> 1:18:55.559
<v Speaker 1>of the athletic competition, So you can log onto DoD

1:18:55.680 --> 1:18:59.880
<v Speaker 1>Warrior games dot com and you can see firsthand the competition.

1:19:00.000 --> 1:19:01.840
<v Speaker 1>You don't even have to live in the Tampa area

1:19:02.040 --> 1:19:05.479
<v Speaker 1>be visiting the Tampa area to see what's going on. Gentlemen,

1:19:05.760 --> 1:19:08.360
<v Speaker 1>thank you so much for telling us about the Warrior Games.

1:19:09.000 --> 1:19:12.760

1:19:12.800 --> 1:19:15.320
<v Speaker 1>Travis Claytter, Thank you so much, gentleman. Really appreciate your

1:19:15.320 --> 1:19:17.479

1:19:21.280 --> 1:19:26.479
<v Speaker 1>we'll be right back. So what's going on with Justin Amash? Well,

1:19:26.560 --> 1:19:28.920
<v Speaker 1>our friend David Harsani's got some thoughts. He's writing a

1:19:28.960 --> 1:19:34.160
<v Speaker 1>piece on this. Meet Justin Amash, never Trump's newest shiny object.

1:19:35.240 --> 1:19:38.080
<v Speaker 1>David harsanis a senior writer at The Federalist. David, great

1:19:38.120 --> 1:19:41.080
<v Speaker 1>to have you back. Always read to be here. Thanks

1:19:41.120 --> 1:19:43.120
<v Speaker 1>for having me all right, ma, So just for by

1:19:43.160 --> 1:19:45.280
<v Speaker 1>way of review, because I haven't really talked about mister

1:19:45.320 --> 1:19:49.000
<v Speaker 1>Amash on the show in detail. Why is he all

1:19:49.000 --> 1:19:50.800
<v Speaker 1>of a sudden getting all this attention from the people

1:19:50.800 --> 1:19:55.679
<v Speaker 1>who hate Trump? Well, he two weeks ago came out

1:19:57.600 --> 1:20:01.120
<v Speaker 1>in you know he support supported impeachment. I guess there

1:20:01.160 --> 1:20:03.519
<v Speaker 1>was no particular bill, but just in general. He said

1:20:03.560 --> 1:20:07.439
<v Speaker 1>that the Attorney General had miss lantin American people and

1:20:07.479 --> 1:20:11.680
<v Speaker 1>that the president had obstructed justice, and he laid out

1:20:11.720 --> 1:20:15.040
<v Speaker 1>his reasoning in tweets and I think on Facebook as

1:20:15.080 --> 1:20:19.320
<v Speaker 1>he does for all his positions, and that if you

1:20:19.520 --> 1:20:23.439
<v Speaker 1>want to impeach Trump, who are immediately elevated in by

1:20:23.680 --> 1:20:25.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, by the never trumpers and Democrats as a

1:20:25.920 --> 1:20:29.560
<v Speaker 1>principal person and possibly even the next president of the

1:20:29.640 --> 1:20:35.040
<v Speaker 1>United States. What exactly is you know, there's justin Amash

1:20:35.200 --> 1:20:40.160
<v Speaker 1>is he's a libertarian, but you know he's saying that

1:20:40.200 --> 1:20:44.600
<v Speaker 1>the presidented state should be impeached. What what is libertarian

1:20:44.640 --> 1:20:46.400
<v Speaker 1>about that? I mean, to me, there's so much from

1:20:46.479 --> 1:20:51.120
<v Speaker 1>the surveillance, surveillance operations, there's a lot of police state

1:20:52.880 --> 1:20:55.200
<v Speaker 1>problems with what's going on here with the deep state

1:20:55.240 --> 1:20:57.599
<v Speaker 1>and Trump and these people the FBI and DJ were

1:20:57.600 --> 1:21:00.240
<v Speaker 1>clearly going after him. I where's all the outrage from

1:21:00.240 --> 1:21:02.800
<v Speaker 1>Amash about about that? Which is? I don't think that's

1:21:02.840 --> 1:21:05.160
<v Speaker 1>what about is him? Because that's central that he's saying

1:21:05.160 --> 1:21:07.360
<v Speaker 1>you should be impeached. I'm like, well, look at the

1:21:07.400 --> 1:21:10.360
<v Speaker 1>issue more holistically and is the other stuff okay? I

1:21:10.400 --> 1:21:13.160
<v Speaker 1>just want to know where Amos stands on this. I mean,

1:21:13.200 --> 1:21:15.360
<v Speaker 1>isn't he like mister fis US surveillance by the way,

1:21:15.439 --> 1:21:17.920
<v Speaker 1>or he's all concerned about this stuff. Well, I don't

1:21:17.960 --> 1:21:20.559
<v Speaker 1>think he's looking he looks at things holistically. Honestly, I

1:21:20.560 --> 1:21:24.559
<v Speaker 1>think he's very um tunnel visioned, bill by bill things

1:21:24.560 --> 1:21:26.360
<v Speaker 1>like that. And I just don't think I stepped back

1:21:26.360 --> 1:21:29.160
<v Speaker 1>and say, I actually think he's a principled guy. I

1:21:29.200 --> 1:21:33.600
<v Speaker 1>think his positions to me, like I would like to

1:21:33.600 --> 1:21:36.320
<v Speaker 1>see Justin Amash be a judge not a politician, because

1:21:36.360 --> 1:21:38.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't think he believes in any sort of incrementalism

1:21:38.800 --> 1:21:41.559
<v Speaker 1>towards getting you know, moving towards the goals that he

1:21:41.600 --> 1:21:45.600
<v Speaker 1>wants for as libertarianism goes, or anything else. So I

1:21:45.680 --> 1:21:49.519
<v Speaker 1>do think generally as a principled guy, which makes what

1:21:49.560 --> 1:21:52.000
<v Speaker 1>you just said more confusing to me, because clearly, as

1:21:52.000 --> 1:21:55.559
<v Speaker 1>a libertarian, even though I've seen many libertarians abandon this,

1:21:55.760 --> 1:21:58.879
<v Speaker 1>they're the concern of the you know, all of a sudden,

1:21:59.160 --> 1:22:01.639
<v Speaker 1>they're less concerned at the FBI or the surveillance state

1:22:01.680 --> 1:22:04.400
<v Speaker 1>than they used to be. But let's just say that

1:22:04.880 --> 1:22:10.320
<v Speaker 1>having a administration using that those mecca, you know, that

1:22:10.439 --> 1:22:13.800
<v Speaker 1>those institutions against another political campaign, seems to me to

1:22:13.840 --> 1:22:17.559
<v Speaker 1>be a far bigger problem than the supposed obstruction of justice,

1:22:17.640 --> 1:22:20.400
<v Speaker 1>which is well within which Trump, you know, was well

1:22:20.400 --> 1:22:23.439
<v Speaker 1>within his powers to do, like firing, the firing his

1:22:23.520 --> 1:22:27.320
<v Speaker 1>FBI director, et cetera. So I don't really understand that position. Um,

1:22:27.479 --> 1:22:29.439
<v Speaker 1>but generally, I mean, I think he's been a pretty

1:22:29.479 --> 1:22:32.240
<v Speaker 1>principled guy. So, you know, I don't really get it.

1:22:33.479 --> 1:22:35.600
<v Speaker 1>What is he trying to accomplish? Though? Why be the

1:22:35.640 --> 1:22:38.200
<v Speaker 1>loan Republican? Why people are now saying, who was it

1:22:38.840 --> 1:22:41.920
<v Speaker 1>one of these guys who's who's so not conservative that

1:22:41.920 --> 1:22:44.160
<v Speaker 1>he can go on CNN and call himself a conservative

1:22:44.160 --> 1:22:47.719
<v Speaker 1>and CNN's okay with it. So whatever that means he's saying,

1:22:48.160 --> 1:22:52.000
<v Speaker 1>was it Lewis Matt Lewis about Yeah? Yeah, the Daily Beast,

1:22:52.320 --> 1:22:55.000
<v Speaker 1>which you know also known as woke dot Com, that

1:22:55.560 --> 1:22:59.360
<v Speaker 1>Ama should consider running for president. Well, here's the thing

1:22:59.760 --> 1:23:02.719
<v Speaker 1>that bugged me about that is that when you look

1:23:02.760 --> 1:23:05.960
<v Speaker 1>at Amasha's views on stuff, they are way outside anything

1:23:05.960 --> 1:23:09.320
<v Speaker 1>and never Trumper would ever kind of want to support, right, So,

1:23:09.360 --> 1:23:11.719
<v Speaker 1>I mean, he doesn't believe in any kind of gun control,

1:23:11.760 --> 1:23:15.160
<v Speaker 1>basically doesn't believe in any kind of like restriction environmental

1:23:15.200 --> 1:23:19.160
<v Speaker 1>to constriction restrictions. It's just tons of stuff. He's he's

1:23:19.600 --> 1:23:21.959
<v Speaker 1>you know, a we actually have some pretty cool positions.

1:23:21.960 --> 1:23:25.200
<v Speaker 1>What you're telling me justin Amash is like it's like Buck,

1:23:25.280 --> 1:23:29.120
<v Speaker 1>you can get that RPG you've always wanted. Absolutely like

1:23:29.479 --> 1:23:31.760
<v Speaker 1>so in my so, I live in two worlds. As

1:23:32.160 --> 1:23:34.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, as a columnist that can be all principled

1:23:34.040 --> 1:23:36.360
<v Speaker 1>all the time and stuff like that, but I'm also

1:23:36.439 --> 1:23:38.160
<v Speaker 1>a realist, right and you're not going to get certain

1:23:38.240 --> 1:23:40.160
<v Speaker 1>kind of legislation. It's not going to happen. You have

1:23:40.200 --> 1:23:43.400
<v Speaker 1>to work within a system when you're a politician. Doesn't

1:23:43.400 --> 1:23:45.040
<v Speaker 1>mean you give up and surrender all the time, but

1:23:45.040 --> 1:23:47.600
<v Speaker 1>you have to be realistic. And nothing he believes in

1:23:47.760 --> 1:23:50.120
<v Speaker 1>is sort of realistic. In DC today, we are not

1:23:50.160 --> 1:23:52.880
<v Speaker 1>in a libertarian moment. Whatever the opposite of a libertarian

1:23:52.960 --> 1:23:56.920
<v Speaker 1>moment is, that's exactly what we're in. So um, you know,

1:23:57.320 --> 1:24:00.680
<v Speaker 1>his positions don't work that way. So I why he

1:24:00.720 --> 1:24:02.240
<v Speaker 1>did he do this? I don't know. Maybe he likes

1:24:02.240 --> 1:24:05.360
<v Speaker 1>to be a contrarian. I'm not sure. Maybe he really

1:24:05.360 --> 1:24:09.240
<v Speaker 1>believes it, that's listen, he may. The thing though, is,

1:24:09.680 --> 1:24:11.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, we can't be surprised if someone tries to

1:24:11.880 --> 1:24:15.000
<v Speaker 1>primary him. They act like they act like the Republicans

1:24:15.000 --> 1:24:18.280
<v Speaker 1>are lockstepping behind Trump in some unprecedented way. No, this

1:24:18.360 --> 1:24:21.520
<v Speaker 1>happens with every president. So there was no never Obama

1:24:21.560 --> 1:24:23.800
<v Speaker 1>movement that didn't exist, you know what I'm saying. So

1:24:23.840 --> 1:24:26.760
<v Speaker 1>I think this president actually has to deal with more

1:24:26.800 --> 1:24:31.439
<v Speaker 1>internal you know, pushback than most. So I don't know. Yeah,

1:24:31.479 --> 1:24:33.960
<v Speaker 1>it's one guy that's look at you. We got we

1:24:33.960 --> 1:24:37.519
<v Speaker 1>got a political commist here who's ending who's ending a

1:24:37.760 --> 1:24:42.599
<v Speaker 1>dings damon with I don't know, this is an active bravery,

1:24:42.680 --> 1:24:48.559
<v Speaker 1>David Harsanyi. This is so much principle going on here.

1:24:48.880 --> 1:24:51.639
<v Speaker 1>Speaking of principle, I'm gonna I'm gonna redirect this here

1:24:51.640 --> 1:24:55.360
<v Speaker 1>for a moment. Uh. The flavor of the day is

1:24:56.040 --> 1:24:58.599
<v Speaker 1>that Trump should have like called a five alarm fire

1:24:58.720 --> 1:25:01.439
<v Speaker 1>and the FBI and everything else about the meeting at

1:25:01.479 --> 1:25:05.320
<v Speaker 1>Trump Tower where nothing even really happened. And my favorite

1:25:05.320 --> 1:25:08.600
<v Speaker 1>game of the day is ask a liberal how Christopher

1:25:08.600 --> 1:25:13.559
<v Speaker 1>Steele a foreigner gathering information directly from Russian government sources,

1:25:13.640 --> 1:25:17.280
<v Speaker 1>government agents, and government officials on Trump, knowing that this

1:25:17.400 --> 1:25:20.040
<v Speaker 1>is during the campaign to hurt Trump. So you got

1:25:20.040 --> 1:25:23.920
<v Speaker 1>a foreigner speaking to foreign government officials and then running

1:25:23.960 --> 1:25:26.000
<v Speaker 1>that stuff back to not just the press, but also

1:25:26.080 --> 1:25:29.599
<v Speaker 1>our own government. How is that not foreign interference the election?

1:25:29.800 --> 1:25:31.920
<v Speaker 1>I get every time I bring this up, liberals start

1:25:32.040 --> 1:25:36.240
<v Speaker 1>sputtering about things that are just non sequitors. It's nuts.

1:25:36.320 --> 1:25:39.719
<v Speaker 1>The position is nuts. I saw David from right, well,

1:25:39.880 --> 1:25:43.519
<v Speaker 1>if Trump had sent an investigator to Moscow to look

1:25:43.600 --> 1:25:47.240
<v Speaker 1>into stuff, that would be different. Can you imagine if

1:25:47.280 --> 1:25:50.919
<v Speaker 1>Trump had sent a staffer to Moscow during the election,

1:25:51.040 --> 1:25:53.720
<v Speaker 1>what we would be talking about today. I mean, basically,

1:25:54.080 --> 1:25:56.680
<v Speaker 1>a meeting that amounted to nothing in Trump Tower has

1:25:56.720 --> 1:25:59.800
<v Speaker 1>ballooned into a giant conspiracy. If he had actually sent

1:25:59.880 --> 1:26:02.360
<v Speaker 1>a staff or to Moscow, that would have been okay

1:26:02.400 --> 1:26:05.479
<v Speaker 1>if he had done what Hillary did, if he had

1:26:05.520 --> 1:26:07.800
<v Speaker 1>if he had worked through a lawyer. He like when

1:26:07.800 --> 1:26:10.000
<v Speaker 1>he answered that question, and the other day I said, sure,

1:26:10.040 --> 1:26:12.519
<v Speaker 1>as long as you work through a lawyer, uh and

1:26:12.920 --> 1:26:15.880
<v Speaker 1>the and the RNC, and you get Kremlin sources to

1:26:16.040 --> 1:26:19.439
<v Speaker 1>you know, to sift it through some you know other

1:26:19.920 --> 1:26:23.439
<v Speaker 1>you know, uh Opo research firm, then it's okay. But

1:26:23.439 --> 1:26:26.400
<v Speaker 1>I wouldn't take it myself. But yeah, I mean, it's ridiculous,

1:26:26.479 --> 1:26:29.240
<v Speaker 1>it's it just strikes me. It's totally unserious. And I

1:26:29.280 --> 1:26:31.439
<v Speaker 1>think that, But yeah, it's not even hypocrisy or what

1:26:31.479 --> 1:26:33.160
<v Speaker 1>about is them? First of all, these people want to

1:26:33.160 --> 1:26:35.040
<v Speaker 1>be back in power, so it's not what about is them?

1:26:35.040 --> 1:26:37.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking about people who want to come back into power.

1:26:37.439 --> 1:26:39.400
<v Speaker 1>But it's this this idea that you can have two

1:26:39.400 --> 1:26:42.200
<v Speaker 1>sets of rules for just because you know, for both parties,

1:26:42.240 --> 1:26:45.280
<v Speaker 1>you can't. You can't have government this way, you can't

1:26:45.280 --> 1:26:46.840
<v Speaker 1>have a debate this way, and you can't have a

1:26:46.880 --> 1:26:49.720
<v Speaker 1>society where there are two separate, you know, sets of

1:26:49.800 --> 1:26:52.880
<v Speaker 1>rules for different kinds of people. Well, I think that's

1:26:52.920 --> 1:26:55.280
<v Speaker 1>also what really gets to the heart of why so

1:26:55.320 --> 1:26:57.920
<v Speaker 1>many people on the right are just we're I mean,

1:26:58.040 --> 1:26:59.760
<v Speaker 1>and I put myself in this category. We're just tired

1:26:59.800 --> 1:27:01.920
<v Speaker 1>of it. And I know there's this this you know,

1:27:02.000 --> 1:27:05.439
<v Speaker 1>not this inexact and some are bothered by, but this

1:27:05.479 --> 1:27:09.839
<v Speaker 1>paradigm of wartime versus peacetime conservatism in the ideological spectrum

1:27:09.920 --> 1:27:11.920
<v Speaker 1>right now, and the and the fight between the two

1:27:11.960 --> 1:27:15.599
<v Speaker 1>sides over what the future should look like. Every time

1:27:15.640 --> 1:27:17.120
<v Speaker 1>I have it, I have somebody who used to be

1:27:17.160 --> 1:27:19.600
<v Speaker 1>on the right start to tell me about Trump's obstruction,

1:27:19.680 --> 1:27:22.280
<v Speaker 1>and then I asked them about anything Hillary related, which

1:27:22.320 --> 1:27:25.880
<v Speaker 1>involved the same the same presidential campaign, and in fact,

1:27:25.960 --> 1:27:29.800
<v Speaker 1>many of the same people instituting rules that are clearly

1:27:29.840 --> 1:27:33.439
<v Speaker 1>a double standard, you know, at the DOJ, the FBI. Uh,

1:27:33.600 --> 1:27:35.600
<v Speaker 1>they act like this is somehow not a part of

1:27:35.600 --> 1:27:37.960
<v Speaker 1>the conversation. And I just think that's bad faith. I

1:27:37.960 --> 1:27:41.679
<v Speaker 1>think that's just indefensible. Yeah, of course it's bad faith.

1:27:41.680 --> 1:27:44.760
<v Speaker 1>I mean this the whole what aboutism charges bad faith?

1:27:44.800 --> 1:27:47.599
<v Speaker 1>Of course I want to know. I want to know

1:27:47.640 --> 1:27:49.439
<v Speaker 1>if there was hypocrisy, because I want to know what

1:27:49.560 --> 1:27:51.920
<v Speaker 1>rules we need to be following. You can't simply can't

1:27:52.120 --> 1:27:54.679
<v Speaker 1>do you know, just you know, throw that away because

1:27:54.720 --> 1:27:58.400
<v Speaker 1>it's inconvenient in your argument. But um, I actually you know,

1:27:58.439 --> 1:28:01.640
<v Speaker 1>I have I think it is shape to get you know,

1:28:01.680 --> 1:28:04.040
<v Speaker 1>to have a rush and give you information about another candidate.

1:28:04.040 --> 1:28:06.479
<v Speaker 1>But anyone who's been in DC for ten minutes knows

1:28:06.520 --> 1:28:09.559
<v Speaker 1>well that there's all kinds of information being thrown around,

1:28:09.560 --> 1:28:12.080
<v Speaker 1>and it comes from all kinds of different places. And

1:28:12.800 --> 1:28:16.440
<v Speaker 1>in the end, Hillary was much more reliant on Russian information,

1:28:16.520 --> 1:28:19.439
<v Speaker 1>and the media was much more reliant on information that

1:28:19.520 --> 1:28:22.400
<v Speaker 1>came from the Kremlin through Democrats than they were through Trump.

1:28:22.479 --> 1:28:27.439
<v Speaker 1>So how can you have this discussion and ignore ignore

1:28:27.520 --> 1:28:30.160
<v Speaker 1>that fact Yeah, it just seems to me to be

1:28:30.439 --> 1:28:33.080
<v Speaker 1>completely bizarre. But everyone should check out what David's up

1:28:33.120 --> 1:28:36.400
<v Speaker 1>to at the Federalist dot com. Also follow him David

1:28:36.439 --> 1:28:39.800
<v Speaker 1>Harsani at Twitter. He's a senior editor at The Federalist. David,

1:28:39.840 --> 1:28:41.400
<v Speaker 1>great to have you, my friend. Thanks for making the time.

1:28:41.439 --> 1:28:44.240
<v Speaker 1>We appreciate it anytime. Thanks for having And if you

1:28:44.280 --> 1:28:46.080
<v Speaker 1>decide to go a Mash twenty twenty, you got to

1:28:46.080 --> 1:28:48.800
<v Speaker 1>come break that news on this show. I might, I might.

1:28:49.240 --> 1:28:52.000
<v Speaker 1>All right, Matt, thanks so much, team will be right back.

1:28:52.120 --> 1:28:55.200
<v Speaker 1>Well it's real simple. Then Democrats are doing absolutely nothing

1:28:55.920 --> 1:28:59.200
<v Speaker 1>while the Mexicans are stepping up working with the President

1:28:59.439 --> 1:29:04.160
<v Speaker 1>to try and stop the illegal flow of immigrants coming

1:29:04.280 --> 1:29:07.519
<v Speaker 1>into the country. Democrats in Congress for the longest time

1:29:07.560 --> 1:29:10.000
<v Speaker 1>refuse to even acknowledge the fact there was a problem.

1:29:10.360 --> 1:29:12.639
<v Speaker 1>Now we're starting to see them acknowledge there was a problem,

1:29:12.640 --> 1:29:15.599
<v Speaker 1>but doing absolutely nothing to fix it, which may even

1:29:15.680 --> 1:29:17.920
<v Speaker 1>be worse now they know there's a problem and they

1:29:17.960 --> 1:29:21.280
<v Speaker 1>still do nothing. They're so focused on attacking this president

1:29:21.479 --> 1:29:24.080
<v Speaker 1>and trying to beat him up because they have no message,

1:29:24.080 --> 1:29:26.800
<v Speaker 1>they have no agenda, that they can't even look at

1:29:26.800 --> 1:29:28.840
<v Speaker 1>the real problems we have and do anything to try

1:29:28.880 --> 1:29:35.479
<v Speaker 1>to fix them. Sarah Huckeybee Sanders is fierce. She has

1:29:35.479 --> 1:29:40.400
<v Speaker 1>been a stalwart in this administration. She's dealt with more

1:29:40.439 --> 1:29:46.280
<v Speaker 1>than her fair share of Trump't arrangement syndrome afflicted lunatics.

1:29:46.320 --> 1:29:51.439
<v Speaker 1>She has had to just stand there and take abuse

1:29:51.479 --> 1:29:53.880
<v Speaker 1>in public while she's trying to have a meal. She's

1:29:54.320 --> 1:30:01.280
<v Speaker 1>been really viciously ridiculed by the entertain payment industry and

1:30:01.320 --> 1:30:04.520
<v Speaker 1>by the late night talk show hosts, and they're horrible

1:30:04.520 --> 1:30:07.599
<v Speaker 1>to her, absolutely horrible to her. But she's stuck in there,

1:30:07.960 --> 1:30:09.719
<v Speaker 1>and I have to say she's one of those people

1:30:09.800 --> 1:30:13.840
<v Speaker 1>who rose to the challenge. I did not think she

1:30:14.000 --> 1:30:17.200
<v Speaker 1>was particularly strong in the role at the beginning. She

1:30:17.240 --> 1:30:20.120
<v Speaker 1>obviously had had work to do on her on her presentation.

1:30:20.280 --> 1:30:22.840
<v Speaker 1>I think anybody who hasn't done that job would probably

1:30:22.840 --> 1:30:24.559
<v Speaker 1>be in something of the same position, or if they

1:30:24.640 --> 1:30:28.519
<v Speaker 1>unless they'd had a really extensive interaction on camera and

1:30:28.560 --> 1:30:32.800
<v Speaker 1>with the media or in the media. But I bring

1:30:32.840 --> 1:30:35.360
<v Speaker 1>this up because the breaking news here is at Sarah

1:30:35.400 --> 1:30:39.920
<v Speaker 1>Huckabee Sanders is going to be leaving the White House

1:30:40.000 --> 1:30:43.960
<v Speaker 1>at the end of the month. That just broke a

1:30:43.960 --> 1:30:48.000
<v Speaker 1>little bit before he went on air and President Trump

1:30:48.080 --> 1:30:50.559
<v Speaker 1>says she is going to go to her home back

1:30:50.560 --> 1:30:53.400
<v Speaker 1>to her home state of Arkansas. He did not name

1:30:53.439 --> 1:30:57.120
<v Speaker 1>a replacement as of yet. She's been in the Press

1:30:57.120 --> 1:31:01.840
<v Speaker 1>secretary role since July of twenty seventeen. And look, I

1:31:02.160 --> 1:31:06.400
<v Speaker 1>think that her departure is something of a loss for

1:31:06.560 --> 1:31:14.880
<v Speaker 1>the administration because she was very solid and really understood.

1:31:14.920 --> 1:31:17.120
<v Speaker 1>Which here's the thing. She knows who these punks in

1:31:17.160 --> 1:31:21.040
<v Speaker 1>the media are, and she's not going through the Oh no,

1:31:21.120 --> 1:31:24.160
<v Speaker 1>I actually think they're great and it's fine. No, no, no,

1:31:24.200 --> 1:31:28.080
<v Speaker 1>she knows they're punks. She knows the media is full

1:31:28.240 --> 1:31:36.400
<v Speaker 1>of smarmy, self indulging Acosta clones, and she put a

1:31:36.479 --> 1:31:38.280
<v Speaker 1>Costa in his place in ways that I think we're

1:31:38.280 --> 1:31:42.479
<v Speaker 1>particularly necessary. And I think that her adversary relationship with

1:31:42.520 --> 1:31:45.920
<v Speaker 1>the press illuminated for the American people, which is the

1:31:45.960 --> 1:31:51.240
<v Speaker 1>most important thing. Just how disgracefully partisan much of the

1:31:51.960 --> 1:31:55.160
<v Speaker 1>particularly the Washington press corps. You know, we talked about

1:31:55.200 --> 1:31:57.559
<v Speaker 1>the media, and the media has so many levels. There's

1:31:57.560 --> 1:32:00.680
<v Speaker 1>so many different components of the news media. You of

1:32:00.680 --> 1:32:04.680
<v Speaker 1>local news, the national level networks, the major newspapers, but

1:32:04.800 --> 1:32:10.759
<v Speaker 1>the DC based Beltway, political Capitol Hill, White House, covery

1:32:10.800 --> 1:32:15.800
<v Speaker 1>media is among the most self righteous, perhaps is the

1:32:15.840 --> 1:32:19.920
<v Speaker 1>most self righteous. Feels like they're the ones that are

1:32:20.320 --> 1:32:25.160
<v Speaker 1>truly speaking truth to power when they're overwhelmingly doing the

1:32:25.200 --> 1:32:27.559
<v Speaker 1>opposite whenever they can, when their people are in power.

1:32:27.640 --> 1:32:31.280
<v Speaker 1>They're coddling power, they're giving backrubs to power. But they

1:32:31.280 --> 1:32:34.040
<v Speaker 1>still think where they're doing that they're being brave and

1:32:34.080 --> 1:32:37.080
<v Speaker 1>they should be praised and we should all be thankful

1:32:37.120 --> 1:32:39.519
<v Speaker 1>for the work that they're doing. They are saving us

1:32:39.600 --> 1:32:43.120
<v Speaker 1>from a lack of understanding, saving us from the ignorance

1:32:43.120 --> 1:32:45.120
<v Speaker 1>of the American people, or the ignorance that we would

1:32:46.280 --> 1:32:49.160
<v Speaker 1>be awash in were it not for their efforts to

1:32:49.280 --> 1:32:55.040
<v Speaker 1>constantly educate us. But that Press Corps Sarah Sanders through

1:32:55.080 --> 1:32:59.639
<v Speaker 1>the occasional Haymaker at and it was fantastic. I thoroughly

1:32:59.720 --> 1:33:02.639
<v Speaker 1>enjoy it. I think it was necessary. I think that

1:33:03.200 --> 1:33:06.960
<v Speaker 1>she's changed the game. I've only met her once, very briefly,

1:33:07.000 --> 1:33:08.840
<v Speaker 1>but I was interested to know that she knew my name,

1:33:08.880 --> 1:33:10.360
<v Speaker 1>which was pretty funny. I was like, oh, well, I

1:33:10.400 --> 1:33:13.000
<v Speaker 1>guess she knows who I am. I only met her

1:33:13.040 --> 1:33:16.680
<v Speaker 1>one time, but she'll she'll be a lost administration, but

1:33:16.680 --> 1:33:19.240
<v Speaker 1>we'll see who they replace her with but Sarah Huckabee

1:33:19.240 --> 1:33:23.240
<v Speaker 1>Sanders served Trump well and we wish her well going forward.

1:33:27.640 --> 1:33:41.360
<v Speaker 1>Team Buck, It's time for roll call Facebook dot com

1:33:41.400 --> 1:33:45.760
<v Speaker 1>slashbuck Sexton. You know how the role call gets going

1:33:46.360 --> 1:33:49.240
<v Speaker 1>mostly through Facebook dot com slashbuck Sexton. That's how. So

1:33:49.320 --> 1:33:51.320
<v Speaker 1>you can write me there, let me know what's going down,

1:33:52.640 --> 1:33:54.519
<v Speaker 1>tell me where I'm wrong, tell me where I'm right,

1:33:54.560 --> 1:33:58.040
<v Speaker 1>mostly where I'm right, hopefully occasionally where I'm wrong, just

1:33:58.080 --> 1:34:00.840
<v Speaker 1>so I appreciate all the notes telling me where I'm right.

1:34:01.280 --> 1:34:04.040
<v Speaker 1>That's how we like it. Thank you so much for

1:34:05.280 --> 1:34:08.960
<v Speaker 1>hanging out, Team Buck. This is from Brian Agreed on

1:34:09.000 --> 1:34:11.760
<v Speaker 1>the Trump International Hotel bar. It's a great vibe there

1:34:11.760 --> 1:34:14.400
<v Speaker 1>with friendly people where I felt comfortable and a good

1:34:14.600 --> 1:34:18.840
<v Speaker 1>refuge from the swamp people of DC. Like you, I

1:34:18.880 --> 1:34:22.519
<v Speaker 1>believe that barring a great depression style recession, Trump will

1:34:22.560 --> 1:34:26.400
<v Speaker 1>win in twenty twenty hands down. That said, one other

1:34:26.439 --> 1:34:28.760
<v Speaker 1>factor can change this, and that's the liberal state and

1:34:28.840 --> 1:34:32.559
<v Speaker 1>deep state efforts to eliminate our electoral college. There's some

1:34:32.600 --> 1:34:35.880
<v Speaker 1>shady stuff going on as of late, with leftist trying

1:34:35.880 --> 1:34:38.519
<v Speaker 1>to eliminate significant votes in the middle of the country

1:34:38.880 --> 1:34:41.599
<v Speaker 1>and assure liberal cities of the Germanting factor for twenty

1:34:41.640 --> 1:34:44.759
<v Speaker 1>twenty elections. We have an electoral college for a reason,

1:34:44.960 --> 1:34:47.040
<v Speaker 1>and more public attention and scrutiny needs to be brought

1:34:47.040 --> 1:34:49.599
<v Speaker 1>to this. Both Prager, you and Glenn Beck have been

1:34:49.640 --> 1:34:53.439
<v Speaker 1>going into it in detail. We all need to speak

1:34:53.479 --> 1:34:56.479
<v Speaker 1>out against this assault on our constitution. Oh, Brian, I

1:34:56.479 --> 1:34:58.840
<v Speaker 1>mean this is You're correct, this is all very important.

1:34:59.200 --> 1:35:04.280
<v Speaker 1>They're really is an effort to tell people that the

1:35:04.320 --> 1:35:07.800
<v Speaker 1>electoral college is an anachronism. There's no need for an

1:35:07.800 --> 1:35:11.160
<v Speaker 1>electoral college. We should just get rid of it entirely.

1:35:11.760 --> 1:35:17.120
<v Speaker 1>And the founders thought about this stuff in great detail,

1:35:17.640 --> 1:35:21.360
<v Speaker 1>and we're very aware of the need for and the

1:35:21.640 --> 1:35:25.080
<v Speaker 1>decision making behind the system of checks and balances we

1:35:25.160 --> 1:35:31.360
<v Speaker 1>have in the constitutional framework that our government was constructed around.

1:35:32.120 --> 1:35:34.920
<v Speaker 1>So yes, it's true that there are libs now who

1:35:35.000 --> 1:35:38.280
<v Speaker 1>are willing to change the rules and change any number

1:35:38.280 --> 1:35:40.559
<v Speaker 1>of rules. I believe that there would be a liberal

1:35:40.560 --> 1:35:42.880
<v Speaker 1>consensus if they could, if they could pull it off,

1:35:42.920 --> 1:35:46.720
<v Speaker 1>if they had the raw power, meaning the seats in

1:35:46.760 --> 1:35:50.880
<v Speaker 1>the House and the Senate as well as the Presidency,

1:35:51.640 --> 1:35:55.160
<v Speaker 1>they would engage in packing of the Supreme Court, and

1:35:55.200 --> 1:35:57.640
<v Speaker 1>I think they would have no qualms about it. I

1:35:57.640 --> 1:36:00.680
<v Speaker 1>think they would absolutely go for it. We need to

1:36:00.720 --> 1:36:03.120
<v Speaker 1>be aware that the rules that we think we're playing by,

1:36:03.200 --> 1:36:05.920
<v Speaker 1>even those rules can change, and those rules are not

1:36:06.560 --> 1:36:13.479
<v Speaker 1>sacred to the left. John Rights, would you be interested

1:36:13.520 --> 1:36:18.720
<v Speaker 1>in a Star Trek Picard, mister Sexton, I have no

1:36:18.760 --> 1:36:20.439
<v Speaker 1>idea what you're asking me, really, other than I know

1:36:20.479 --> 1:36:24.400
<v Speaker 1>that there's Jean Luke Piccard in Star Trek, but thank

1:36:24.479 --> 1:36:27.960
<v Speaker 1>you for writing. Jeremy Buck, I know you've delved in

1:36:28.000 --> 1:36:29.639
<v Speaker 1>the background in history of the Middle East, but maybe

1:36:29.680 --> 1:36:32.679
<v Speaker 1>it would be worth it to spend some time during

1:36:32.720 --> 1:36:35.559
<v Speaker 1>a future show on the civil war in Yemen, on

1:36:35.640 --> 1:36:37.400
<v Speaker 1>the tanker attacks that occurred to the Gulf of a

1:36:37.479 --> 1:36:39.559
<v Speaker 1>mom There's a discussion that are on in Saudi Arabia

1:36:39.560 --> 1:36:42.479
<v Speaker 1>are clashing over the civil war in Yemen. It seems

1:36:42.520 --> 1:36:44.040
<v Speaker 1>like peace is nothing but a fairy tale in the

1:36:44.080 --> 1:36:48.160
<v Speaker 1>Middle East. Shields Hie, Jeremy, Yeah, Jeremy, A deep dive

1:36:48.200 --> 1:36:51.320
<v Speaker 1>on the Yemeni Civil War would probably be worthwhile, so

1:36:51.800 --> 1:36:54.040
<v Speaker 1>I think a lot of the folks listening would appreciate that,

1:36:54.080 --> 1:36:55.760
<v Speaker 1>as long as it wasn't too long and it was

1:36:55.840 --> 1:36:58.400
<v Speaker 1>jam packed with information. So I will make a note

1:36:58.400 --> 1:37:01.880
<v Speaker 1>of that. The very short version of a much longer

1:37:01.920 --> 1:37:05.840
<v Speaker 1>story is that, yes, the Yemeni Civil War is now

1:37:05.880 --> 1:37:10.080
<v Speaker 1>a proxy battle, and it is a Sunny Shia part

1:37:10.120 --> 1:37:12.559
<v Speaker 1>of the Sunny Shia fight that is royaling the entire

1:37:12.600 --> 1:37:15.519
<v Speaker 1>Middle East and will continue to and really has been

1:37:16.320 --> 1:37:19.080
<v Speaker 1>a bat an ongoing battle in the Middle East since

1:37:19.200 --> 1:37:22.800
<v Speaker 1>the eighth century or so. It's been going on for

1:37:22.880 --> 1:37:26.600
<v Speaker 1>quite a while. Yeah, the situation Yemen. I mean, I

1:37:26.880 --> 1:37:29.080
<v Speaker 1>was on Kennedy's show last night. We had a disagreement

1:37:29.120 --> 1:37:30.720
<v Speaker 1>about this one. Sometimes we have a little bit of

1:37:30.720 --> 1:37:33.960
<v Speaker 1>a feisty exchange. On Kennedy's show on Fox Business. She

1:37:34.080 --> 1:37:37.280
<v Speaker 1>thinks that the seven billion one points had one hundred

1:37:37.280 --> 1:37:40.599
<v Speaker 1>and fifty billion. I think she's referring to the amount

1:37:40.680 --> 1:37:44.240
<v Speaker 1>of arm sales over the eight years of the Obama administration.

1:37:44.760 --> 1:37:47.560
<v Speaker 1>Then you get into the one hundred billion dollars plus category,

1:37:47.760 --> 1:37:51.120
<v Speaker 1>and that's coming up on a decade. But what's left

1:37:51.160 --> 1:37:54.200
<v Speaker 1>now is a seven billion dollar sale that the administration,

1:37:54.720 --> 1:37:57.000
<v Speaker 1>the Trump administration, wants to go forward with. And you

1:37:57.040 --> 1:37:59.800
<v Speaker 1>have these senators who are saying, oh no, no, don't

1:37:59.800 --> 1:38:03.439
<v Speaker 1>do at It doesn't really have any effect other than

1:38:03.880 --> 1:38:07.120
<v Speaker 1>to make the senators who stand up and get to

1:38:07.160 --> 1:38:10.599
<v Speaker 1>give a flowery speech about how Saudi Arabia's a dictatorship. Yeah,

1:38:10.600 --> 1:38:13.599
<v Speaker 1>but are we not going to say they're an ally

1:38:13.680 --> 1:38:15.720
<v Speaker 1>because they're an Allied state. And if we're going to

1:38:15.800 --> 1:38:18.200
<v Speaker 1>start telling allied states that they're terrible but they're still

1:38:18.200 --> 1:38:20.800
<v Speaker 1>our allies, we're gonna have a lot of problems and

1:38:20.840 --> 1:38:22.479
<v Speaker 1>they're not going to stop what's going on. You know,

1:38:22.560 --> 1:38:26.160
<v Speaker 1>Yemen is an extension of the Arabian Peninsula. Yemen is

1:38:27.560 --> 1:38:30.280
<v Speaker 1>a large country that borders Saudi Arabia. So we can

1:38:30.320 --> 1:38:33.960
<v Speaker 1>say whatever we want about how we don't want there

1:38:33.960 --> 1:38:39.639
<v Speaker 1>to be civilian casualties in this fight, but Saudi Arabia

1:38:39.720 --> 1:38:40.920
<v Speaker 1>is going to do what it wants to do here,

1:38:41.880 --> 1:38:44.120
<v Speaker 1>and we'd rather have the Saudis on our side, especially

1:38:44.160 --> 1:38:47.520
<v Speaker 1>when we have to deal with the Iranians than the alternative.

1:38:49.520 --> 1:38:51.200
<v Speaker 1>Here we go, John, Right, So listen to your show

1:38:51.200 --> 1:38:53.400
<v Speaker 1>in the morning and usually enjoy a snack during it.

1:38:53.840 --> 1:38:56.200
<v Speaker 1>Today you played a clip of two idiots on CNN

1:38:56.240 --> 1:38:59.519
<v Speaker 1>almost breaking their arms patting themselves on their backs about

1:38:59.560 --> 1:39:01.800
<v Speaker 1>how they are the defenders of truth. I almost spit

1:39:01.800 --> 1:39:05.280
<v Speaker 1>out my delicious orange and chocolate combo. Is it possible.

1:39:05.280 --> 1:39:07.280
<v Speaker 1>You could give us a little warning when playing clip

1:39:07.360 --> 1:39:09.240
<v Speaker 1>from CNN. Well, John, no, I don't want to give

1:39:09.240 --> 1:39:12.160
<v Speaker 1>you a warning because I want to make sure that

1:39:13.000 --> 1:39:16.479
<v Speaker 1>you know you're on your toes, my friend, once you

1:39:16.560 --> 1:39:19.479
<v Speaker 1>ready to rock, don't you already know what's going on?

1:39:20.800 --> 1:39:22.559
<v Speaker 1>And that means that sometimes there's going to be some

1:39:22.640 --> 1:39:26.720
<v Speaker 1>CNN nonsense on this show that will happen. That is

1:39:26.760 --> 1:39:31.000
<v Speaker 1>a real thing. So there you have it. Here we go,

1:39:31.360 --> 1:39:37.400
<v Speaker 1>John Rights, Hey, Buck, want to come to La. I

1:39:37.560 --> 1:39:42.000
<v Speaker 1>like LA. I don't know why asking me about La

1:39:42.040 --> 1:39:45.960
<v Speaker 1>specifically right now, but yeah? Or oh wait, La City?

1:39:46.040 --> 1:39:50.760
<v Speaker 1>What's that? Oh? Los Angeles Chocolate Convention? Now I know

1:39:50.800 --> 1:39:52.840
<v Speaker 1>why you're inviting me, man, chocolate to the bet. Chocolate

1:39:52.960 --> 1:39:55.840
<v Speaker 1>is my weakness? Well, I guess I have several weaknesses,

1:39:55.840 --> 1:40:02.120
<v Speaker 1>but chocolate is high on the weakness scale. Wayne Right.

1:40:02.400 --> 1:40:06.680
<v Speaker 1>Joe Biden says, cure cancer. Sure, why not? I mean

1:40:06.800 --> 1:40:11.080
<v Speaker 1>we cured baldness. Check it out, Wayne Biden. I meant

1:40:11.080 --> 1:40:12.639
<v Speaker 1>to play that cliplerd in the week. I don't think

1:40:12.640 --> 1:40:14.559
<v Speaker 1>we got to it. But yeah, Biden is now in

1:40:14.560 --> 1:40:17.080
<v Speaker 1>this place where he'll he'll say anything and he can

1:40:17.120 --> 1:40:20.759
<v Speaker 1>get away with promising whatever he wants to because ultimately

1:40:20.760 --> 1:40:23.920
<v Speaker 1>the media will cover for him. That's just the way

1:40:23.960 --> 1:40:28.559
<v Speaker 1>it's going to happen. Here we go, c K writes

1:40:28.600 --> 1:40:30.800
<v Speaker 1>in Buck not sure if this is the right place

1:40:30.800 --> 1:40:33.599
<v Speaker 1>for roll call? Oh it is, Ck, but just heard

1:40:33.640 --> 1:40:37.680
<v Speaker 1>tonight's show where you told somebody that Dalmatians have a

1:40:37.800 --> 1:40:42.120
<v Speaker 1>bad temperament. Fake news. I've had approximately twenty four dollars

1:40:42.120 --> 1:40:46.360
<v Speaker 1>since nineteen eighty and some were social butterflies, some more reserved,

1:40:46.400 --> 1:40:49.720
<v Speaker 1>but none were mean. Such a false narrative spread. Who

1:40:49.760 --> 1:40:52.400
<v Speaker 1>knows why dogs? If all breeds are as good as

1:40:52.400 --> 1:40:55.920
<v Speaker 1>their training and socialization. Joined the Dalmatian Owners of America

1:40:55.960 --> 1:40:57.880
<v Speaker 1>page if you want to learn more from long time

1:40:57.920 --> 1:41:01.599
<v Speaker 1>and new owners, breeders and fans enjoy your show, Well, Ck,

1:41:01.760 --> 1:41:04.439
<v Speaker 1>you're dropping the Dalmatian knowledge here for everyone across the

1:41:04.439 --> 1:41:10.080
<v Speaker 1>country to hear. And I can't say I totally agree

1:41:10.080 --> 1:41:11.920
<v Speaker 1>with your All dogs are the same, which is how

1:41:11.920 --> 1:41:15.920
<v Speaker 1>they're raised. Comment some dogs. There is a biochemistry to

1:41:15.960 --> 1:41:17.760
<v Speaker 1>these animals, and some dogs are going to have a

1:41:17.840 --> 1:41:21.240
<v Speaker 1>higher tendency toward aggression than others. It is true that

1:41:21.479 --> 1:41:23.759
<v Speaker 1>the way the dog is raised is the single biggest

1:41:23.760 --> 1:41:27.400
<v Speaker 1>determining factor. But you've also got to take into account

1:41:28.360 --> 1:41:33.519
<v Speaker 1>the internal mechanics, if you will, the biochemistry of these animals,

1:41:33.520 --> 1:41:39.840
<v Speaker 1>and you have a lesser margin for error with some

1:41:39.920 --> 1:41:43.600
<v Speaker 1>breeds than you do for others. And you know, I was,

1:41:43.720 --> 1:41:45.120
<v Speaker 1>I was going to go into a whole thing about

1:41:45.120 --> 1:41:48.360
<v Speaker 1>how there's a new dog on my floor that's a poodle,

1:41:49.000 --> 1:41:51.519
<v Speaker 1>and how I'm not sure that poodle should count as dogs,

1:41:51.600 --> 1:41:53.320
<v Speaker 1>and then I start and then I start trashing poodles,

1:41:53.320 --> 1:41:56.080
<v Speaker 1>and poodle owners always freak out at being it's so

1:41:56.160 --> 1:41:59.800
<v Speaker 1>because poodle owners are very devoted to their poodles. And

1:42:00.040 --> 1:42:01.800
<v Speaker 1>when I say, well, why don't you guys do the

1:42:01.840 --> 1:42:03.639
<v Speaker 1>thing where you shave them all funny with the pom

1:42:03.680 --> 1:42:05.760
<v Speaker 1>poms on the legs and the and they say, we

1:42:05.800 --> 1:42:09.479
<v Speaker 1>don't do that, and you know, okay, but I'm just

1:42:09.520 --> 1:42:11.840
<v Speaker 1>not a poodle guy. I'm just of the dogs. I

1:42:11.960 --> 1:42:14.920
<v Speaker 1>like all dogs, but of the dog breeds out there,

1:42:15.720 --> 1:42:18.120
<v Speaker 1>I think the one that I just I don't know.

1:42:18.360 --> 1:42:21.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't really get the poodle thing. The doodle thing.

1:42:21.120 --> 1:42:22.920
<v Speaker 1>I understand, they're a little they're a little more of

1:42:22.920 --> 1:42:25.320
<v Speaker 1>my speed. But the straight up poodles, oh, I know,

1:42:25.400 --> 1:42:28.080
<v Speaker 1>they're so smart and everyone's gonna yell at me for look.

1:42:28.200 --> 1:42:30.040
<v Speaker 1>You can like what you like. That's the good news.

1:42:30.120 --> 1:42:35.200
<v Speaker 1>Different different strokes for different folks. Matt writes, a no

1:42:35.320 --> 1:42:38.479
<v Speaker 1>party like a Canadian Society party for the study of

1:42:38.600 --> 1:42:43.720
<v Speaker 1>education party. Matt, I don't know what you've I don't

1:42:43.720 --> 1:42:46.200
<v Speaker 1>know what you've got in the I was gonna say

1:42:46.200 --> 1:42:49.479
<v Speaker 1>that breathalyzer. What's that? The vaporizer up in Canada? But

1:42:50.479 --> 1:42:52.479
<v Speaker 1>I could probably use some of myself right about now.

1:42:53.840 --> 1:42:58.759
<v Speaker 1>Let's see, Irene, any chance if you're rejoining the Blaze

1:42:58.880 --> 1:43:03.360
<v Speaker 1>for a platform more exposure, Irene, I haven't spoken in

1:43:03.520 --> 1:43:05.720
<v Speaker 1>my old colleagues at the Blaze about that at anytime

1:43:05.760 --> 1:43:11.559
<v Speaker 1>in recent months. I will have a new platform this summer.

1:43:11.800 --> 1:43:14.200
<v Speaker 1>I can't give you specifics on the details yet, but

1:43:14.240 --> 1:43:17.479
<v Speaker 1>there will be cool new stuff happening in the Freedom Hut,

1:43:17.479 --> 1:43:22.360
<v Speaker 1>and that is for sure. That's definitely going down. And yeah,

1:43:22.360 --> 1:43:25.360
<v Speaker 1>and also I have a book that I'm in the

1:43:25.400 --> 1:43:27.960
<v Speaker 1>final stages of signing off on the contract to write,

1:43:28.520 --> 1:43:30.479
<v Speaker 1>so that should be happening and hopefully the book will

1:43:30.479 --> 1:43:34.160
<v Speaker 1>be out by Christmas time. And yes, I'm very much

1:43:34.200 --> 1:43:37.639
<v Speaker 1>excited about it. Patty writes, I wish you were dressing

1:43:37.680 --> 1:43:42.480
<v Speaker 1>shifts joke of a hearing. This is infuriating, innuendo, hypotheticals,

1:43:42.560 --> 1:43:46.719
<v Speaker 1>lies all of shifts usual tactics. Yeah, I mean, shifty

1:43:46.760 --> 1:43:49.439
<v Speaker 1>shift is the sketchiest of sketchy. We all know this,

1:43:49.920 --> 1:43:53.120
<v Speaker 1>so shouldn't be a surprise to anyone when it turns

1:43:53.120 --> 1:43:56.360
<v Speaker 1>out that he's not, in fact on the up and

1:43:56.479 --> 1:43:59.719
<v Speaker 1>up in these hearings. Paul Right, hey bucks. Someone mentioned

1:43:59.720 --> 1:44:02.800
<v Speaker 1>books about bureaucracy on Roll Call the other day. I

1:44:02.840 --> 1:44:06.480
<v Speaker 1>think the penultimate work on the subject is PJ O'Rourke's

1:44:06.560 --> 1:44:09.160
<v Speaker 1>Parliament of Whors. I'm assuming you've read it, but if

1:44:09.160 --> 1:44:11.280
<v Speaker 1>you haven't, it is the most cynically honest take ever

1:44:12.320 --> 1:44:16.320
<v Speaker 1>on the slug like workings of the US government. It's fierce, fiery,

1:44:16.360 --> 1:44:19.320
<v Speaker 1>funny and accurate in an hl Menkin kind of way.

1:44:19.800 --> 1:44:23.000
<v Speaker 1>For anyone trying to understand government should be required reading

1:44:23.120 --> 1:44:24.840
<v Speaker 1>shields High. Well, you know, Paul, I've actually done a

1:44:24.840 --> 1:44:28.679
<v Speaker 1>fair amount of work with PJ. We've done some fireside

1:44:28.760 --> 1:44:31.400
<v Speaker 1>chats together. I write for an online magazine that he

1:44:32.120 --> 1:44:36.000
<v Speaker 1>edits called American Consequences. So I'm familiar with pj's work,

1:44:36.040 --> 1:44:38.840
<v Speaker 1>but I and I know PJ personally, but I have

1:44:39.000 --> 1:44:42.120
<v Speaker 1>not read Parliament of Whorrs, so that's quite a title,

1:44:43.240 --> 1:44:47.360
<v Speaker 1>certainly eyecatching. But I will have to look into this

1:44:47.439 --> 1:44:55.160
<v Speaker 1>based on your recommendations. Let's see here, Me me Buck.

1:44:55.200 --> 1:44:59.000
<v Speaker 1>I just completed a mandatory online HR course. I was

1:44:59.040 --> 1:45:03.760
<v Speaker 1>a pauled I've read Sex on nine Mountain, binary and microaggressions. Unfortunately,

1:45:03.800 --> 1:45:06.200
<v Speaker 1>all the BS and the academic world has already infiltrated

1:45:06.240 --> 1:45:08.640
<v Speaker 1>the business world. I'm glad I'm near the end of

1:45:08.640 --> 1:45:11.400
<v Speaker 1>my career rather than the beginning. I'd find it really

1:45:11.400 --> 1:45:13.880
<v Speaker 1>difficult to keep up the facade of all this political correctness.

1:45:14.160 --> 1:45:16.719
<v Speaker 1>When I started the HR, thing was don't discriminate based

1:45:16.720 --> 1:45:19.639
<v Speaker 1>on race. Now there are so many categories that protected

1:45:19.680 --> 1:45:22.519
<v Speaker 1>classes that makes your head spin. The only endangered species

1:45:22.520 --> 1:45:29.080
<v Speaker 1>that is not protected as white males. Mimi from California, Well, Mimi, yeah,

1:45:29.120 --> 1:45:32.559
<v Speaker 1>it is true. Political correctness is now in charge of

1:45:32.600 --> 1:45:37.400
<v Speaker 1>the corporate attitudes and companies across the country, which is

1:45:38.280 --> 1:45:40.160
<v Speaker 1>certainly troubling, but it's one of the reasons why I

1:45:40.200 --> 1:45:45.320
<v Speaker 1>support and like Trump. So I enjoy enjoy that aspect

1:45:45.320 --> 1:45:47.679
<v Speaker 1>of Trumpism is that he at least fights back team.

1:45:47.720 --> 1:45:50.759
<v Speaker 1>I'll be an NYC tomorrow up in New York City,

1:45:51.320 --> 1:45:53.439
<v Speaker 1>so I'll be doing the show from there. Freedom Hunt
