1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,440 Speaker 1: I mean, is this what your takeaway is? 2 00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:06,520 Speaker 2: Well, not exactly, but I don't know. I guess I'll 3 00:00:06,559 --> 00:00:08,959 Speaker 2: be the contrary on this. I think that the Democratic 4 00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:13,280 Speaker 2: senators handled this basically pretty well. You're playing chicken with 5 00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:16,400 Speaker 2: the other ear so you're playing chicken, and the other 6 00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:20,000 Speaker 2: party wants to crash, Like you're never going to win 7 00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:23,960 Speaker 2: a game of chicken against Donald Trump. Get into this, 8 00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:25,319 Speaker 2: I mean, hold on. 9 00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:27,840 Speaker 1: They spent forty days doing this. And I was talking 10 00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:30,240 Speaker 1: to Senator Kane a moment ago, and he basically laid 11 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:32,400 Speaker 1: out everything that they could have gotten if they never 12 00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:34,879 Speaker 1: went into a shutdown. He was worried about snap benefits 13 00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:37,000 Speaker 1: running out, Well, if they never went into a shutdown, 14 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:39,720 Speaker 1: snap benefits would not have run out. He was worried 15 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:42,560 Speaker 1: about federal workers getting laid off. Well, if they didn't 16 00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:45,280 Speaker 1: go into a shutdown, they weren't going to get laid off. 17 00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:47,560 Speaker 1: And so they spent forty days saying this is all 18 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:50,960 Speaker 1: about healthcare, all about the ACA and these subsidies. This 19 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,400 Speaker 1: is the only point we're going to have any leverage 20 00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:56,240 Speaker 1: on this. And then now they're like, well, we're going 21 00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 1: to have a separate vote and the American public will 22 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:02,000 Speaker 1: get to see where Republicans stand, and by the way, 23 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:03,400 Speaker 1: it sounds like the House isn't even going to take 24 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 1: it up. 25 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:07,479 Speaker 2: I hear all that, Katie, But that was the best 26 00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:09,920 Speaker 2: case scenario from the start. I mean, and they had 27 00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:12,120 Speaker 2: no choice but to do nothing. And here's the reality. 28 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:14,960 Speaker 2: If they wanted to get the healthcare subsidy extended, they 29 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 2: need to win the election last November. The Republicans control 30 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:22,039 Speaker 2: all all of Washington. Like this expectation that the Republicans 31 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 2: are going to wake up one morning and say, you 32 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:28,119 Speaker 2: know what we're going to do the emergency Obamacare extension. 33 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 2: You know, we're going to make sure that the subsidies 34 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 2: for people that are early retirees are going to continue. 35 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:36,640 Speaker 2: It's crazy to think that they're The Republicans were never 36 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,560 Speaker 2: going to do that, And the purpose of the shutdown, 37 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:43,800 Speaker 2: to my mind, was to demonstrate to the voters, as Democrats, 38 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:45,960 Speaker 2: what their side was on this issue and what the 39 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 2: Republican side was. There was not going to be a 40 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:52,600 Speaker 2: tangible policy. The Republicans never even came to the table. 41 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 2: The House hasn't been in session for a month. Donald 42 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 2: Trump never tried to negotiate. So I hear you. I 43 00:01:57,800 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 2: hear everybody when they're saying that they wanted more than 44 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 2: on the whole out longer. But this is the longest 45 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 2: shutdown in history. I remember back when I was a Republican, 46 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 2: the Democrats and people like me and the establish of 47 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,959 Speaker 2: the Republican Party said the Tea Party's crazy, Like these 48 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,400 Speaker 2: guys at the Tea Party are extremists with the way 49 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 2: that they are pushing these shutdowns. This Democratic Senate just 50 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:20,520 Speaker 2: held a longer shutdown than the Tea Party ever did. So, 51 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 2: I mean, I just think that's like, that is about 52 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:25,839 Speaker 2: as much as could have been expected given the real 53 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 2: harm that was happening to people, with the loss of 54 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,680 Speaker 2: loss of benefits, loss of jobs, loss of salaries. 55 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 1: Did it take it as I guess, Tim, you're suggesting 56 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 1: that much time for the American public to see where 57 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 1: the Democrats stood and how they felt about healthcare, and 58 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 1: to look at it closely and say that ultimately it 59 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 1: was the Republicans that were stonewalling this issue. 60 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:47,920 Speaker 2: I would have been fine with thirty days. That's not 61 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 2: a very popular opinion out there, but yeah, that I 62 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 2: would have been fine with me thirty days. I think 63 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 2: the point was made. 64 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 3: I think Adam jump in. 65 00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 4: Yeah. 66 00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 5: I mean, look, I think the strategy always had an endgame, 67 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 5: and sort of what Tim is getting at here, Republicans 68 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 5: were never likely to give Dems their big demands. I 69 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,679 Speaker 5: think if Democrats were going to cut this kind of 70 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 5: a deal, it probably would have been a better idea 71 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 5: to have done it a week ago, before the elections 72 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 5: gave everybody a renewed sense of momentum, before Trump started 73 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 5: lobbying Republicans to get rid of the filibuster, and people 74 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 5: like me who were like, h, this is interesting, let's. 75 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 3: See where this goes. 76 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 5: But you know, I do think that there is an 77 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 5: argument for claiming a win here. Democrats were able to 78 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 5: drive a conversation about health care and make that a 79 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 5: central focus, which is something they've been struggling to do 80 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 5: for a long time. 81 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 3: And look, if you. 82 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 5: Want to be really cynical about this from a political perspective, 83 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 5: by not extending the ACA subsidies, Republicans have set themselves 84 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 5: up for a year next year that is going to 85 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 5: be entirely focused on healthcare, and people's premiums are going 86 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 5: to go up. Republicans are highly unlikely to extend these subsidies, 87 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 5: which is part of why Democrats were demanding that they 88 00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 5: do it. But that's going to be all on Republicans. 89 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 5: It's going to be similar to twenty seventeen when they 90 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 5: made it all about repealing the ACA. Republicans have put 91 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 5: themselves in a position where all of next year, going 92 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 5: into the midterms, is going to be focused on people's 93 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 5: premiums going up at the hands of Republicans in control 94 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 5: of Congress. 95 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:20,679 Speaker 3: This is the primal scream of a dying regime. Pray 96 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 3: for our enemies, because we're going to medieval on these people. 97 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:28,040 Speaker 3: He's not got a free shot. All these networks lying 98 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,040 Speaker 3: about the people, the people have had a belly full 99 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,159 Speaker 3: of it. I know you don't like hearing that. I 100 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:34,440 Speaker 3: know you tried to do everything in the world to 101 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 3: stop there, but you're not going to stop it. It's 102 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 3: going to happen. 103 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 5: And where do people like that go to share the 104 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 5: big line? 105 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 2: Mega media? 106 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 6: I wish in my soul, I wish that any of 107 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 6: these people had a conscience. 108 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 3: Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose? 109 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:55,840 Speaker 3: If that answer is to save my country, this country. 110 00:04:55,520 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 7: Will be saved or room. Here's your host, Stephen. 111 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:06,159 Speaker 3: Monday, ten November year over Lord twenty twenty five is 112 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 3: the two hundred and fiftieth. Think about for a second, 113 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 3: how many institutions in the world are two hundred and 114 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 3: fifty years old. That's not a country. Two hundred and 115 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 3: fiftieth anniversary of the beginning a birthday of the United 116 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 3: States Marine Corps in Ton Tavern in Philadelphia today. My 117 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 3: co host for the next two hours is the Great 118 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 3: Michael Pack. We're going to talk about a whole lot 119 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 3: I've got to get. I got the Great Julie Kelly 120 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 3: is on first. Julie here, Okay, let me lay this 121 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:35,160 Speaker 3: out before you get into it. When I've got stalwarts 122 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 3: of the MAGA movement, and I'm talking first team players, 123 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:43,799 Speaker 3: I've got Darren Beattie, Jack Posobic, Julie Kelly, Glenn Beck, 124 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:47,720 Speaker 3: Stephen Baker. When people like that are telling me over 125 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:52,599 Speaker 3: and over again, this pipe bomber thing is not simply big, 126 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:54,560 Speaker 3: but it's the key that picks the lock on many 127 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 3: different things relate to J six, the FED surrection, and 128 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:01,160 Speaker 3: the deep State. I think even Glenn say of the 129 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 3: day could be as big as potentially as Watergate. I 130 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 3: take that seriously. Since there's such a depth of premium 131 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 3: folks and folks that do this for a living or 132 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:16,159 Speaker 3: telling me that. And as you know, over the weekend, 133 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 3: I was in a location I didn't have great Wi 134 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 3: Fi or phone, but my phone literally blew up when 135 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 3: I got back in the area on Sunday afternoon about 136 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:28,039 Speaker 3: the situation on the pipe bomb and maybe some new 137 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 3: revelation on the pipe bomber. Can you get us up 138 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,279 Speaker 3: to speed on everything that's happening, ma'am. 139 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:33,920 Speaker 8: Yeah. 140 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:37,839 Speaker 9: So this is a report on Blaize Media and this 141 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 9: was authored by Steve Baker and Joe Hanneman, two reporters 142 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:46,839 Speaker 9: who have covered January sixth, and this was teased last 143 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 9: week to your point by Glenn Back and Steve Baker 144 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 9: that this was going to be the greatest political scandal 145 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:57,480 Speaker 9: of all time, that this would implicate high level Trump 146 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 9: administration officials, including perhaps CIA director John Ratcliffe, d and 147 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 9: I director Chelsea Gabbert, and others related to who these 148 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 9: reporters believe they have identified as the individuals seen on 149 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 9: that very grainy, low quality surveillance video of a hoodie 150 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 9: suspect walking around Capitol Hill on January fifth, that evening, 151 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 9: which is the time frame that the FBI and law 152 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 9: enforcement believe those two dummy explosive pipe bombs were planted 153 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 9: outside the headquarters of the RNC and the DNC, only 154 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 9: to be conveniently and coincidentally discovered seventeen hours later to 155 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 9: coincide with the start of the Joint Session of Congress. 156 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 9: So this article took over social media and the Internet 157 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 9: all weekend, and it was supposed to not just identify 158 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 9: this pipe bomber, but also expose this big scandal. 159 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:06,239 Speaker 8: Well, the article, in my opinion. 160 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:13,560 Speaker 9: Fell far short of providing enough solid evidence to almost 161 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 9: definitively They said ninety eight percent based on this gate analysis, 162 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 9: which we can kind of talk about meaning the walking 163 00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 9: mannerisms and style of a Capitol Police officer. 164 00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 3: I mean gate. You may gate like a horse would 165 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 3: have a gate, or like a human would have a gate, 166 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:33,959 Speaker 3: the way you would walk correct, the way you would 167 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 3: propel yourself forward. Okay, keep going. 168 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:43,560 Speaker 9: Correct, So GA it not g ate gate. So apparently 169 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:45,959 Speaker 9: what happened is Steve Baker was looking at video from 170 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:50,080 Speaker 9: January sixth Capitol Police officers who were using what they 171 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 9: call non lethal A munitions on the crowd. You and 172 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,599 Speaker 9: I have talked about that, and he apparently saw a 173 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 9: Capitol Police officer who he thought had the same gate 174 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 9: pattern learn as the site of this individual on January fifth, 175 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,600 Speaker 9: who still has not been identified. January fifth, twenty twenty one. 176 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 3: It's so something unique enough? Is there something unique enough 177 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 3: about the suspect? Because this is like the Magruder film 178 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 3: kind of you and Beatty and Pasobic and Glenn Beck's 179 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 3: team and many others for hours and hours and hours 180 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 3: have gone over all this grainy footage. I mean Beatty 181 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,079 Speaker 3: was on the show one time. You talk about Glenn 182 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 3: and his team. I mean Betty was on the show 183 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 3: at one time for an hour, and I think we 184 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 3: went over this thing and he had like every movement 185 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:40,120 Speaker 3: of this and I didn't have a suspect of the time. 186 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 3: But why this is so important? Why couldn't why the 187 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 3: official narrative was a lie, and how this was going 188 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 3: to be something that would explode the whole fed surrection. 189 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:52,080 Speaker 3: Ma'am right. 190 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 9: Well as Darren Beatty has said, and I think Darren 191 00:09:55,679 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 9: Beatty and I have uncovered the most information evidence shady 192 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 9: circumstances related to the pipe bombers, both at the DNC 193 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 9: and RNC. But what Darren always said is if you 194 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 9: expose the truth about the pipe bombs, the entire January 195 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 9: sixth narrative unravels because that was the incident, that those 196 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 9: two incidents really initiated the. 197 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 8: Panic that day. 198 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:27,959 Speaker 3: And I think that's what Glenn's talking about. If you 199 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 3: solve the identity of this pipe bomber, or you can 200 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 3: get the idea that the FEDS knew a lot more 201 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:38,079 Speaker 3: about this pipe bomber, even maybe being part of them 202 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:41,199 Speaker 3: or knowing about it, this gets to be Watergate level 203 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 3: because then the entire official narrative collapses correct. 204 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 8: Correct. 205 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,680 Speaker 9: And this is something we've talked about for years, and 206 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 9: Darren Batty and I have suspected four years, and you 207 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 9: and I have talked about this as well, that this 208 00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 9: was an inside job that law enforcement in some capacity 209 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 9: was tied to the planting of one or both of 210 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 9: these devices. I just had a report out last month 211 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 9: that you and I talked about more suspicious surroundings related 212 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:17,680 Speaker 9: to the woman who discovered the RNC pipe bomb. She 213 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 9: worked for first NET, which of course is a law 214 00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 9: enforcement agency, and then the DNC. 215 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 8: So it's not exactly news that this is. 216 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 9: An inside job, that law enforcement was somehow involved one 217 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:36,320 Speaker 9: capacity or the other. I think this might be new 218 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 9: to Glenn because of how he's talked about it, but 219 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 9: it certainly is not to us. So if this individual 220 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 9: and we won't name her name, because you could see 221 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 9: people are already backing off this report as they identified 222 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 9: this woman who now is under police protection by the way, 223 00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:59,439 Speaker 9: based on I think really dubious. 224 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:03,600 Speaker 3: Naturally because naturally the naturally the MAGA people would seek 225 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 3: amediate vengeance, correct revenge. 226 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 9: Well, look, it's it's really irresponsible to float someone's name 227 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:19,440 Speaker 9: without enough substantive evidence that confirms that this is the 228 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 9: absolute identity of this suspect. I mean, this is a 229 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:31,720 Speaker 9: very controversial issue. It's one of great public interest and 230 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 9: one of great consequence to both the individual and anyone 231 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 9: else who would have been involved. 232 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:39,360 Speaker 3: So so it's the evidence that they put forward. The 233 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:41,960 Speaker 3: evidence they put forward was they actually put pictures over 234 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:45,280 Speaker 3: up there, and they compared the grainy footage of the 235 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:49,560 Speaker 3: of the of the suspect or the unidentified person walking 236 00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 3: its gate versus her gate, so that you could actually 237 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:55,559 Speaker 3: compare in contrast. 238 00:12:56,920 --> 00:13:00,679 Speaker 9: We don't know because the article did not in bed 239 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 9: any video clips that had been used as samples for 240 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:09,719 Speaker 9: this gate analysis. So we don't know what video this 241 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 9: one analyst or the software that was used, but we 242 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:17,079 Speaker 9: certainly don't have the video clips. What I think it 243 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 9: is also a little bit questionable here is that in 244 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 9: the article they say they did not use the FBI 245 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:26,719 Speaker 9: grainy footage that we've all seen for years, that they 246 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:32,720 Speaker 9: used different footage that was clearer and had a more 247 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 9: accurate timing to it. Now, as you know, derabaty years 248 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 9: ago broke down how a lot of that video, especially 249 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:45,320 Speaker 9: the video captured by the DNC security footage, how it 250 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 9: was purposefully slow, that it had such a slow frame 251 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:54,520 Speaker 9: rate as to suggest that it's somehow been manipulated. So 252 00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 9: what footage did they use, We don't know. They didn't 253 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:00,439 Speaker 9: put the video clips in the piece, which I feel 254 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:04,680 Speaker 9: like from a journalistic standpoint, if you're going to call 255 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:08,560 Speaker 9: someone's name out, you better provide the public with the 256 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 9: evidence that you're using as a basis of that conclusion. 257 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:14,920 Speaker 3: Hang, we're going to take a break. If you can't, 258 00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 3: I know you're undertight schedule. Our next guess is also 259 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:21,960 Speaker 3: undertight schedule. It's the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of 260 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:24,480 Speaker 3: the birth of the Marine Corps, A Ton Tavern in 261 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 3: Philadelphia as Continental Marines. I think they started recruiting naturally. 262 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 3: If you're going to recruit marines, what better place to 263 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 3: recruit them than a tavern? Right, hard fighting devil dogs. 264 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 3: We're gonna get to all of this for the next 265 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 3: two hours, Julie, Kelly, Julie, can you just stick around 266 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 3: for a minute or two.

This is also important as 289 00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:37,800 Speaker 3: the engine room, the Warrim engine room informs me that 290 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 3: Kamala Harris might have also been jeopardized, because now we know. 291 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 3: I guess, I don't know if it's fake news or not. 292 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 3: I don't know what to believe. Kamala Harris might have 293 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 3: been in jeopardy. Heck, maybe she was the pipe bomb woman. 294 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,040 Speaker 3: But you broke something the other day. I just want 295 00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 3: people to get up to speed and remember this on 296 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:53,680 Speaker 3: the R and C side. 297 00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:54,240 Speaker 4: What was it? 298 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 9: Yeah, So, first of all, with Kamala Harris, she was 299 00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:01,120 Speaker 9: at the DNC inexplicably why we don't know. 300 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 8: She mentioned it one time in her book. 301 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 9: She said she went there to call contributors and donors, 302 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 9: which still doesn't make any sense. And Barry Laudermilk's committee 303 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:14,840 Speaker 9: New Jay six committee today is asking for testimony from 304 00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 9: her secret service agents who missed this device, by the way, 305 00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 9: that was planted right outside of the entrance to the DNC. 306 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 9: At any rate, I've also been covering for since late 307 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 9: twenty twenty one. The circumstances of this discovery of the 308 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:34,360 Speaker 9: RNC device, which was found by a woman named Carlin Junger. 309 00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 8: She was working from home that day. 310 00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 9: She worked for first Net, which is a private public 311 00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 9: partnership that oversees broadband for first responders during disasters, emergencies, etc. 312 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 9: She just so happened to go do her laundry in 313 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:54,080 Speaker 9: the middle of the day and it's the sort of 314 00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 9: outdoor if access it from outside. She lived right next 315 00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:01,000 Speaker 9: to the Capitol Hill Club, a popular hay out for Republicans, 316 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:04,400 Speaker 9: as you know, in the headquarters of the RNC. As 317 00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 9: she's going to do her laundry her second trip there, 318 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:13,159 Speaker 9: she looks down and notices a device by a recycling 319 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:17,960 Speaker 9: bin and goes to alert security. First at the Capitol 320 00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 9: Hill Club than RNC. So this was around twelve forty 321 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:26,159 Speaker 9: Steve on January sixth, twenty minutes before the joint session 322 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:29,879 Speaker 9: convened RNC and DNC headquarters, as you know, just a 323 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:33,959 Speaker 9: few blocks away from the US Capital. So the discovery 324 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:38,480 Speaker 9: of that device, now, both devices were not going to 325 00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 9: be active. They weren't active. They were dummy devices. They 326 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:46,760 Speaker 9: were never going to explode. So I have two pieces 327 00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 9: up declassified with Julie Kelly to talk about more suspicious 328 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 9: surroundings as to her discovery, which I think has more 329 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:59,040 Speaker 9: evidence of maybe we need to question this person and 330 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:01,920 Speaker 9: certainly the evidence that was provided in the Blaze article 331 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 9: over the weekend. 332 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:09,480 Speaker 3: But to Glenn Beck's in, Scott Baker and you, they're 333 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:12,239 Speaker 3: coming at it with getting information and try because they 334 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:16,160 Speaker 3: understand you you this is the key that could pick 335 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:16,520 Speaker 3: the lock. 336 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:16,800 Speaker 4: Right. 337 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:18,879 Speaker 3: There's something been weird about this from the beginning. This 338 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:22,560 Speaker 3: is what Darren Beatty was obsessed by this. You've been 339 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:25,119 Speaker 3: going at this right in a different direction, but have 340 00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:29,680 Speaker 3: very compelling, at least circumstantial evidence right now. Is the 341 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:34,119 Speaker 3: Justice Department, the FBI, the Secret Service, anything that we 342 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:38,359 Speaker 3: consider a actual government apparatus that should have access to 343 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 3: absolutely everything. Are they working with the Glenn Beck team? 344 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:44,439 Speaker 3: Are they working with you? Is there? Can we just 345 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 3: get to why do we have to have two of 346 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 3: our smartest, uh, you know, investigative units spending an incredible 347 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:55,239 Speaker 3: amount of time, burning a lot of daylight doing this 348 00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 3: when isn't a lot of this information there that could 349 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:00,760 Speaker 3: be shared by the FBI, the secrets servis the DC 350 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 3: Metro Police, the Capitol Hill Police or anything, ma'am. 351 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,560 Speaker 9: Well, I mean, I don't know if the Blaze and 352 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:11,399 Speaker 9: Steve Baker have shared their gate analysis or their video 353 00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:12,960 Speaker 9: samples with the FBI. 354 00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:15,560 Speaker 8: If I mean the FBI didn't come up. 355 00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:18,480 Speaker 3: No, no, no, hang on, they're saying something totally different. Hang on, 356 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 3: I don't know. This is my point. Glenn Beck and 357 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:24,400 Speaker 3: Steve Baker are on the outside pushing in. Julie Kelly 358 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:26,440 Speaker 3: is on the outside pushing in. You guys are coming 359 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 3: around this and clearly, now more than ever, people realize 360 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 3: there's something very suspicious here right and you got it 361 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:36,119 Speaker 3: back up into the public conscious. Is the government is 362 00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 3: the FBI, the people that should know all the information, 363 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:43,640 Speaker 3: have absolutely everything, and have every foot people walk because 364 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 3: they had drones up or they had you know, every 365 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:48,440 Speaker 3: piece of technology. You can't walk a foot in DC 366 00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:51,480 Speaker 3: that you're not monitored by one hundred cameras, have the 367 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 3: official government apparatus. Because what frustrates me is Tom Finn 368 00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:59,560 Speaker 3: and Jush watched Julie Kelly over the substack, Glenn Beck 369 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:02,679 Speaker 3: at the Blaze, all these people, the Revolver team. You 370 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:07,440 Speaker 3: guys are spending time, money, effort, and hey, there's you know, 371 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:11,439 Speaker 3: this is a Trump administration run by Trump people. This 372 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:13,399 Speaker 3: should be something that we should get to the bottom of, 373 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:17,120 Speaker 3: like immediately, every piece of information, and I'm sure there 374 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:20,359 Speaker 3: are hundreds of thousands a piece of information about this, 375 00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:24,800 Speaker 3: just in all the different details of how technologically you're 376 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:28,000 Speaker 3: tracked in the current era. So why why are we 377 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:31,679 Speaker 3: not getting any information that are helping you, helping Beck helping, 378 00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 3: Revolver helping. You know, Judish Watch told me to fit 379 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:36,640 Speaker 3: in the other day, who's my hero? Told me he's 380 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:40,159 Speaker 3: got he's got more FOI requests, he's fighting harder than 381 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:43,320 Speaker 3: than in the Obama administration. Forget Biden, he said, Biden, 382 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:46,119 Speaker 3: We're nothing compared to This is back to holder. So 383 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:48,639 Speaker 3: why is that? Why are we not getting full cooperation 384 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:53,200 Speaker 3: by the official apparatusus we control? Ma'am? 385 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:56,639 Speaker 9: Well, I mean I haven't heard a lot from my 386 00:20:56,760 --> 00:21:01,879 Speaker 9: sources on this particular story. I think there is work 387 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:07,399 Speaker 9: being done looking into whatever is publicly available. But I 388 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 9: share everyone's frustration that we don't have better answers that 389 00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 9: were coming up on the five year anniversary of January sixth, 390 00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 9: and you know, Statute to limitations expiring on certain charges, 391 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:24,320 Speaker 9: certainly for whoever planted the pipe bin and obscured any 392 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:29,200 Speaker 9: sort of investigation. But we know from testimony that this 393 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:33,720 Speaker 9: investigation was basically shut down in spring of twenty twenty one, 394 00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:37,199 Speaker 9: and there really was not much happening. So the question is, 395 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,200 Speaker 9: and we know that this continues to be an ongoing 396 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:43,439 Speaker 9: problem at the FBI and DJ and DNI and everywhere else, 397 00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 9: is that evidence was hidden, evidence was buried. We had 398 00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:51,879 Speaker 9: testimony that the cell phone data from January fifth was corrupted, 399 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:54,919 Speaker 9: and then I think that they've been digging into that 400 00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:58,120 Speaker 9: trying to see if they can access cell phone data 401 00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:03,160 Speaker 9: from that night. That seems completely impossible to believe. So 402 00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:05,920 Speaker 9: I do trust that there are and know that the 403 00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 9: investigation is still active and ongoing. Not to sound like 404 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:14,119 Speaker 9: an FBI spokesman there, but I share everyone's frustration that 405 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:17,360 Speaker 9: we don't have answers, and that's why, unfortunately, that vacuum 406 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:21,000 Speaker 9: can be filled with bad information, which is what this 407 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:23,439 Speaker 9: report represents. 408 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:26,359 Speaker 3: Sixty days. Within sixty days, we're going to be on 409 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 3: the fifth anniversary of this sixty days. Unbelievable. Julie Kelly, 410 00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:32,480 Speaker 3: where do people go? You've got a couple of great 411 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 3: pieces up on substack.

And that was very early on 514 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:37,200 Speaker 11: the morning of five August. 515 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:39,680 Speaker 6: And for the next twenty two days it was just 516 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 6: battle NonStop. 517 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 11: In whether that's. 518 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 6: Is almost you know, up to that point my life 519 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:51,120 Speaker 6: was never experienced anything like that. And then the battle 520 00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 6: grounds we had trained in urban environments a lot before 521 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 6: going over. I had the privilege to be a rifle 522 00:28:57,280 --> 00:28:59,480 Speaker 6: two comment on the march to Baghdad. So I had fought, 523 00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 6: but never in a cemetery that's fifteen to twenty square 524 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:07,440 Speaker 6: kilometers depending on the way you measured it. So yeah, 525 00:29:07,600 --> 00:29:10,560 Speaker 6: I'm just grateful that PBS put that out, or we'll 526 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:13,480 Speaker 6: put it out later today so that America gets to see. 527 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:15,239 Speaker 11: You know, what do marines do? 528 00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:17,640 Speaker 6: What a Marin's done for two hundred and fifty years, 529 00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:20,280 Speaker 6: no matter the challenge, batter all butts off to do 530 00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:23,040 Speaker 6: whatever we need to do to help keep America safe. 531 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:28,320 Speaker 3: What the temperature was correctly from wrong one hundred to 532 00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:30,800 Speaker 3: one hundred and fifteen degrees during parts of the day 533 00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:33,800 Speaker 3: that you guys were fighting through this vast cemetery, and 534 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 3: folks you'll see tonight it's a cemetery like you would 535 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:39,320 Speaker 3: see in New Orleans, a cemetery that's above ground where 536 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:44,880 Speaker 3: the the I guess esophagus or the all their tombs 537 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 3: are actually abu. 538 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:48,080 Speaker 10: Wee on top of each other. But there's also a 539 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:52,920 Speaker 10: huge subtraine. Yes, it's just vast, both up and down catacombs. 540 00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:55,600 Speaker 3: Unbelievable. Scott, what was like to fight through that at 541 00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:56,800 Speaker 3: those temperatures. 542 00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:00,360 Speaker 6: Yeah, no, during the day, it was not on common 543 00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 6: for it to be one hundred and thirty degrees At 544 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:06,160 Speaker 6: the time. I was called cat or, a heavy machine 545 00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:09,960 Speaker 6: gun anti armor platoon commander. So we had infantrumental riflemen, 546 00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:14,040 Speaker 6: we had machine gunners, we had missilemen, and so we 547 00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:16,120 Speaker 6: were one of the forces that could maneuver because we 548 00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:19,680 Speaker 6: had vehicles. Sometimes we're at clearing buildings. Sometimes we're maneuver 549 00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:23,120 Speaker 6: and providing supporting fires. But you know, what was it like? 550 00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:28,080 Speaker 6: It was just more personal up close for all the marines. 551 00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:30,880 Speaker 6: It was about twelve hundred marines in our unit at 552 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:33,400 Speaker 6: some point in the battle, most all of them got involved, 553 00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:38,000 Speaker 6: and it was just one of those it was almost 554 00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:43,040 Speaker 6: impossible to describe. They are obviously throughout history marines have fought, 555 00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:46,800 Speaker 6: you know, in some very very close, up close environments. 556 00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:50,240 Speaker 6: I think this was just thinking about it now twenty 557 00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:53,640 Speaker 6: one years later, I don't think we fought in cemeteries, 558 00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:57,280 Speaker 6: but nothing like this, Nothing in this proximity, this density, 559 00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:00,880 Speaker 6: the catacombs, the roads that moved in and out of 560 00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:03,440 Speaker 6: the cemetery, which is very narrow. 561 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:06,440 Speaker 11: So yeah, so it was intense in short intense. 562 00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 3: The reason that you take that, people I think take 563 00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:14,000 Speaker 3: such pride when they see this film, no matter how 564 00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 3: bloody it is. In the second, in the in the job, 565 00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:21,440 Speaker 3: you're essentially fighting in what is the Vatican of the 566 00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 3: Shite religion. And to the degree that you guys are 567 00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:29,200 Speaker 3: told by your senior officers and that you're promagading to 568 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:33,480 Speaker 3: the troops that the mosque, which is like you know, 569 00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:39,160 Speaker 3: Saint Peter's Cathedral, to the Shehites, it's their Vatican. You've 570 00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:41,480 Speaker 3: got to take extra care with that, I mean particularly 571 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 3: extra care of that, even to the degree that you 572 00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:46,040 Speaker 3: know you might put some marines in danger. Tell us 573 00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:46,480 Speaker 3: about that. 574 00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, that was incredibly tough. The enemy we refer to 575 00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:55,040 Speaker 6: as rules of Engagement or ROS. The enemy knew what 576 00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:59,880 Speaker 6: ours were, and so many aspects of their command post, 577 00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 6: their mortifying positions, their casualty collection points were at times 578 00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:10,320 Speaker 6: inside the amount of League Moss complex, and like you're saying, 579 00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:14,960 Speaker 6: it is huge, a multi kilometer complex. So it was 580 00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:20,600 Speaker 6: very difficult to be struck by mortar barrages that were 581 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:25,120 Speaker 6: launched from inside the complex and then to have to 582 00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 6: find other ways because the rules of engagement, as the 583 00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:31,880 Speaker 6: battle progressed. Initially, they were very restrictive, as the documentary 584 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:35,640 Speaker 6: lays out, and as the days went on, very similar 585 00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:39,280 Speaker 6: to something if for those for the Way City veterans 586 00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:41,840 Speaker 6: from nineteen sixty eight, you'd find the same thing the 587 00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:44,840 Speaker 6: opening days of the battle, much more restrictive rules of 588 00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:47,640 Speaker 6: engagement than it went on. So it was very, very challenging. 589 00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:52,719 Speaker 6: That said Marines, as we've done, you find a way 590 00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 6: to adapt. You attack the enemy in a different direction, 591 00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:59,080 Speaker 6: you attack them with a different weapons system. But yeah, 592 00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:01,040 Speaker 6: it was definitely definitely challenging. 593 00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:05,640 Speaker 10: I mean, yeah, it was. It is very moving just 594 00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:07,560 Speaker 10: to hear their stories. I mean, it was so hot. 595 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:12,120 Speaker 10: Colonel Mayer describes how they would have they would have 596 00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 10: IV's in their arm. They'd come out of the fighting 597 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:17,640 Speaker 10: in the cemetery and they'd have to be hydrated with 598 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,280 Speaker 10: IV's and they'd leave the IV stints in so that 599 00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:22,239 Speaker 10: they can come in and out faster. And you can 600 00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:25,200 Speaker 10: see him in the film lying there nearly passed out 601 00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:28,200 Speaker 10: getting hydrated. I mean, it's an and that it's a 602 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:31,960 Speaker 10: surreal kind of landscape. And then the mosque, I mean, 603 00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:35,720 Speaker 10: in the end, you know, they put the Marines, pushed 604 00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:38,440 Speaker 10: them out of the cemetery into the mosque where they 605 00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:41,400 Speaker 10: couldn't attack. They were going to send in because of 606 00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:43,959 Speaker 10: course US troops can't go into the mosque because, as 607 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:46,800 Speaker 10: you say, it's one of the holy sites in Shia Islam. 608 00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:49,920 Speaker 10: So they were going to send in Iraqi commandos and 609 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:53,720 Speaker 10: they were all set to do that when another site leader, Sistani, 610 00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:58,120 Speaker 10: shows up and boom and Soder gets away. Soder and 611 00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 10: the Mahi Army, you know, survived escaping another day, and 612 00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:04,200 Speaker 10: you can hear the frustration in some of the Marines 613 00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 10: at that moment that they didn't get a chance to 614 00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:10,480 Speaker 10: finish the job and deal with the Madi militia that 615 00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:13,759 Speaker 10: actually plagued I Raq, you know for a long long time, 616 00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:17,399 Speaker 10: even to today. I believe my potier is still active too. 617 00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:20,920 Speaker 10: So what was that like, Scott, We didn't talk about 618 00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:22,680 Speaker 10: that too much with you in the film. And what 619 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:25,200 Speaker 10: was it like to sort of suddenly the thing is over, 620 00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:27,560 Speaker 10: the thing you're preparing for, it doesn't happen and the 621 00:34:27,600 --> 00:34:28,720 Speaker 10: thing ends. 622 00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:34,800 Speaker 6: Yeah, no, I you joked when we were offline a 623 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:37,880 Speaker 6: little bit about the difference in interviewing two years after 624 00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:42,040 Speaker 6: and then reflect on it now, you know, in short 625 00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:46,680 Speaker 6: incredibly frustrating. You know, the Marines, and I'm confident I 626 00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:49,120 Speaker 6: speak with all the guys that were in BLT one four. 627 00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:53,200 Speaker 6: You fight your butts off twenty two days in that 628 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:56,200 Speaker 6: he and you finally finally get the enemy. 629 00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:58,719 Speaker 11: You kind of got the bull by the horns, if you. 630 00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:01,800 Speaker 6: Will, or you know, we' at him with our hands 631 00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:04,160 Speaker 6: right around his neck, you know, and get ready to 632 00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:07,040 Speaker 6: finish the job. And then I told us TONI, I'm 633 00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:09,920 Speaker 6: not exactly sure what happened between the night of twenty 634 00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:12,839 Speaker 6: five and twenty six August. I just knew we were 635 00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:15,120 Speaker 6: ready to go into the very final assault and we 636 00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:18,440 Speaker 6: got word to stand down and some agreement had been 637 00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 6: reached and or met, and it was frustrating at the time, 638 00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:31,200 Speaker 6: ready to launch total Yeah, go ahead, I'm sorry, but. 639 00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:35,439 Speaker 10: Yeah, you know you mentioned that I joked about how 640 00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:38,320 Speaker 10: you guys were different seventeen years ago, but you still 641 00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:38,920 Speaker 10: have the fight. 642 00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:40,040 Speaker 3: I was really impressed. 643 00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:42,080 Speaker 10: I think I mentioned this in the break too, about 644 00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:45,000 Speaker 10: what you said in the screening that you Marines can 645 00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 10: win any battle. You know, they can't make the strategic decisions, 646 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:50,320 Speaker 10: they can't make the deals with but they can't lose. 647 00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:53,640 Speaker 10: They can't lose. You said that they can't lose. Send 648 00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:56,440 Speaker 10: us in there. We can't lose. You said that just 649 00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 10: a couple of weeks ago. So I think we're everyone 650 00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:02,360 Speaker 10: in the audience was impressed. There's some truth. There's truth 651 00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:03,799 Speaker 10: to that, right, Scott. 652 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:07,439 Speaker 6: Yeah, No, I mean at the end of the day, 653 00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:10,480 Speaker 6: you know, just reflecting on this now, having a privilege 654 00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:12,640 Speaker 6: to serve for our almost twenty five ten percent of 655 00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:17,800 Speaker 6: the course history had served marines in three different combat environments, 656 00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:20,880 Speaker 6: and the missions are hard. But no matter what happens, 657 00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,640 Speaker 6: if you need marines to do something, it doesn't matter 658 00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:25,880 Speaker 6: how hard it is. We will find a way to 659 00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:29,240 Speaker 6: get it done. We will work together, we will depend 660 00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:32,520 Speaker 6: on noncommissioned officers. And this isn't just this is just 661 00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:36,040 Speaker 6: what marines do. Steve, you asked about why two hundred 662 00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:38,680 Speaker 6: and fifty is so important, because literally, for two hundred 663 00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:43,280 Speaker 6: and fifty years, noncommissioned officers, junior officers, staff, non commissioned 664 00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:44,880 Speaker 6: officer in the Marine Corps is find a way to 665 00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:49,239 Speaker 6: get it done. The missions are combat is chaotic, it's uncertain, 666 00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:54,120 Speaker 6: it's nazty, but it doesn't matter. We learned from those 667 00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:57,359 Speaker 6: who've gone before us.

This film is very powerful. Of course, 727 00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:04,120 Speaker 3: we were still in the Iraq War, and it wasn't 728 00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:06,719 Speaker 3: that they didn't like the political message, because some of 729 00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:09,120 Speaker 3: the things that well hold the political side looked totally 730 00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:13,640 Speaker 3: screwed up. It's the fact that they could not believe 731 00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:16,360 Speaker 3: that you just went into this group and that these 732 00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:19,120 Speaker 3: were typical standard marines. 733 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:19,560 Speaker 7: Right. 734 00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:21,560 Speaker 3: They refused to believe that. They thought that you either 735 00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:24,840 Speaker 3: had actors or that you're curated and just gotten the 736 00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:27,120 Speaker 3: best of the best. That's right, that's what they did. 737 00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:29,520 Speaker 3: They think they thought I curated, that you curate just 738 00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:31,920 Speaker 3: that it wasn't. You just went in and got the 739 00:40:33,880 --> 00:40:35,800 Speaker 3: I'm not going to do this. It's not going to change. 740 00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:40,239 Speaker 3: Short commercial break, Michael Pack.

We'll talk all about short break 745 00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:54,600 Speaker 3: back in the moment. 746 00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:01,919 Speaker 7: Your host Stephen k. Bah. 747 00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:09,400 Speaker 3: There are very few institutions in world history that have 748 00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:12,839 Speaker 3: lasted for a quarter of a millennia. Very few two 749 00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:18,400 Speaker 3: hundred and fifty years, pretty amazing older than the country. PBS, 750 00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:21,680 Speaker 3: when they first saw this film rejected it. I shouldn't 751 00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:24,040 Speaker 3: say rejected. They just put it into the lockdown beIN. 752 00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:26,560 Speaker 3: We're never going to show it. In fact, if President 753 00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:30,560 Speaker 3: Trump had not won twice, I'll tell pack story in 754 00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:32,279 Speaker 3: the next hour. Michael Pack is one of my old 755 00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:33,879 Speaker 3: time here is you talk about but you talk about 756 00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:36,080 Speaker 3: toughest boot leather Pack, as tough as bout leg because 757 00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:41,000 Speaker 3: they tried to literally destroy him. But this film, and 758 00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:42,680 Speaker 3: I hadn't seen him a big screen a long time. 759 00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:44,800 Speaker 3: It was so overwhelmingly powerful when I saw on the 760 00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:48,000 Speaker 3: big screen with the sound, and how beautiful the photography is, 761 00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:52,839 Speaker 3: or how stunningly it's so realistic you see the photography. 762 00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:57,560 Speaker 3: When you see you're so proud of these guys that 763 00:41:57,640 --> 00:42:00,720 Speaker 3: you could understand PBS with their kind of local slant 764 00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:02,960 Speaker 3: when they first saw they go Pack had to gun 765 00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:07,279 Speaker 3: deck this. This could not just be the average marines 766 00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:10,400 Speaker 3: that fought in these three battles. It just two. Because 767 00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:14,080 Speaker 3: each the first losure crowds amazing, then the draft crowds amazing, 768 00:42:14,120 --> 00:42:17,520 Speaker 3: and second illusion is amazing. They had to think in 769 00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:19,680 Speaker 3: their mind this thing was gun decked, right. That was 770 00:42:19,719 --> 00:42:20,400 Speaker 3: one of the things. 771 00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:22,080 Speaker 10: I mean, Look, we've tried to get in on it 772 00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:24,319 Speaker 10: every few years for seventeen years, so we've gone through 773 00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:26,600 Speaker 10: lots of different heads of programming at PBS, so they 774 00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:29,600 Speaker 10: all say different things, and who knows what they really think. 775 00:42:29,640 --> 00:42:32,600 Speaker 3: But one of the things they said, was I used. 776 00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:36,800 Speaker 10: I was like central casting that I called for to 777 00:42:37,000 --> 00:42:39,520 Speaker 10: cure edited and I look for ones that looked good 778 00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:42,080 Speaker 10: on camera, but but I really didn't. I found the 779 00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:46,960 Speaker 10: footage first. And although Colonel Como compliments me, I'm not 780 00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:49,360 Speaker 10: entitled to those compliments. Jan Bender, who's going to be 781 00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:51,920 Speaker 10: on later, was one of the one of the combat 782 00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:54,760 Speaker 10: cameraman whose footage I used. And we used some still 783 00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:58,640 Speaker 10: photographs by commercial photographers like Lucian Reed, and they are 784 00:42:58,640 --> 00:43:00,000 Speaker 10: the brilliant there. 785 00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:01,200 Speaker 3: That's brilliant. 786 00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:03,880 Speaker 10: The other Lucian Reed risked his own life and hellouse 787 00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:07,160 Speaker 10: to take these photos, extraordinary photos. And Jan Bender in 788 00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:10,360 Speaker 10: the Second Battle of Fallujah. And so I've seen a 789 00:43:10,360 --> 00:43:13,240 Speaker 10: lot of combat cameraman footage. Most of it is because 790 00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:16,279 Speaker 10: these guys are scared, not great footage. Jan's footage was 791 00:43:16,360 --> 00:43:20,720 Speaker 10: actually good footage. So I rely on them and I 792 00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:22,760 Speaker 10: had the footage, and then we look for the people 793 00:43:22,800 --> 00:43:25,040 Speaker 10: in the footage. You know, once you found Jan Bender, 794 00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:26,560 Speaker 10: you got to go with the footage of the people 795 00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:29,160 Speaker 10: his squad that's in the footage. I can't cast them. 796 00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:32,200 Speaker 10: I can't pretend different people are in them. I had 797 00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:35,560 Speaker 10: like no power over that, you know, PBS attributes more 798 00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:38,560 Speaker 10: power to me than I've got. But they said other 799 00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:40,920 Speaker 10: things too that they would say at one point that 800 00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:43,840 Speaker 10: it was too pro military. I'm not sure what that meant. 801 00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:47,000 Speaker 10: At one point they said, even though this is contract 802 00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:49,200 Speaker 10: to the essence of the film, that I needed to 803 00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:52,680 Speaker 10: put in more political historical background. I needed to interview 804 00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:55,719 Speaker 10: politicians should we or shouldn't be in the work. So 805 00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:57,920 Speaker 10: they wanted me to do that. The film was already 806 00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:00,600 Speaker 10: ninety minutes, right, they wanted me to add for fifteen 807 00:44:00,600 --> 00:44:02,359 Speaker 10: more minutes and then want to give me any money 808 00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:04,400 Speaker 10: to do it. I didn't want to do it anyway, 809 00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:07,120 Speaker 10: and so who knows. I mean a lot of these 810 00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:10,000 Speaker 10: things were fancy ways of saying no. The thing they 811 00:44:10,040 --> 00:44:12,600 Speaker 10: never said and couldn't say, is it isn't a good film. 812 00:44:13,600 --> 00:44:17,759 Speaker 10: And I've had fifteen films on broadcast nationally on PBS, 813 00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:22,160 Speaker 10: including another one with You and We'll Rickover after this 814 00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:25,160 Speaker 10: one was finished, and so they couldn't say it was 815 00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:26,960 Speaker 10: a bad film. So they had to think of things 816 00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:29,799 Speaker 10: to say, and these are the things they said. But 817 00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:33,080 Speaker 10: I do think it's courageous of the current president Paula 818 00:44:33,120 --> 00:44:36,319 Speaker 10: Kerger to reverse those seventeen years of no's and give 819 00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:38,919 Speaker 10: us a yes, as you say, on the two hundred 820 00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:40,920 Speaker 10: and fifty of that birthday of the Marine Corps and 821 00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:43,800 Speaker 10: the day before Veterans Day. And she did that knowing 822 00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:46,279 Speaker 10: that part of the story would be the seventeen year 823 00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:49,920 Speaker 10: delay yes, and that is not a good look for PBS, 824 00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:52,880 Speaker 10: and she did it anyway. So I think that's a 825 00:44:52,920 --> 00:44:54,840 Speaker 10: courageous stand on Paula's part. 826 00:44:55,239 --> 00:44:59,040 Speaker 3: Very courageous, incredible. We're going to have Lindell in a second. 827 00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:01,680 Speaker 3: We got a whole an hour to go here, and 828 00:45:01,719 --> 00:45:03,480 Speaker 3: I think post we're gonna try to get post Posta 829 00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:07,160 Speaker 3: was up at Philadelphia to day a very moving commemoration 830 00:45:07,239 --> 00:45:10,520 Speaker 3: of the Marines.
