My friends, the Democrats are frothing 3 00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:22,479 Speaker 1: at the mouth trying to come up with a way 4 00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:25,560 Speaker 1: to make it bad for Trump. Bill Barr was swatting 5 00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:28,080 Speaker 1: them away today up on Capitol Hill. We'll talk about that. Plus, 6 00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:31,160 Speaker 1: the border is a total crisis situation. Will have the 7 00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:33,960 Speaker 1: latest updates for you, and the number of countries that 8 00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:36,880 Speaker 1: have had national show up just in the Rio Grant 9 00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:39,680 Speaker 1: sector will blow your mind. Dotted more coming up on 10 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:43,560 Speaker 1: The buck Sexton Show. This is the buck Sexton Show 11 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:46,680 Speaker 1: where the mission or mission is to decode what really 12 00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:53,479 Speaker 1: matters with actionable intelligence. Make no mistake American, You're a 13 00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 1: great American Again the buck Sexton Show begins, analyst remembers, 14 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:06,160 Speaker 1: great guy. Now, this process is going along very well, 15 00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:12,600 Speaker 1: and my original timetable of being able to release this 16 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:20,360 Speaker 1: by mid April stands, and so I think that from 17 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:27,679 Speaker 1: my standpoint, by the by within a week, I will 18 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,200 Speaker 1: be in a position to release support to the public, 19 00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:33,759 Speaker 1: and then I will engage with the chairman of both 20 00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:37,400 Speaker 1: judiciary committees about that report and about any further requests 21 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:41,759 Speaker 1: that they have. Welcome to The buck Sexton Show. Oh, 22 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 1: we're in the final countdown for the release here of 23 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:50,840 Speaker 1: the full Muller Report, which I think people that live 24 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 1: in New York and DC and work in media politics 25 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 1: are very excited about. I think a lot of the 26 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 1: rest of the country is like, whatever, man, we know 27 00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 1: what's going to happen. We know Democrat rats are going 28 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,360 Speaker 1: to claim that, oh no, it's much worse. There were 29 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 1: no charges. But just because it's not beyond a reasonable 30 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,240 Speaker 1: doubt doesn't mean that it didn't happen. That's what they'll say. 31 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 1: They're so predictable, which is why I predict them most 32 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 1: of the time. This is where this is all heading, 33 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 1: and Trump and his allies are gonna just look at 34 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 1: this and say, yeah, no charges, So what's this? What's 35 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 1: the hubbub about? What's the problem here? There's been so 36 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 1: much reckless talk about Bob Barr, specifically, people saying that 37 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 1: he's not ethical, that he's compromised, that somehow President Trump 38 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 1: just hand picked this guy and turned him into his 39 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: inside man at the DOJ. But Barr knows this game well. 40 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:56,360 Speaker 1: He is a skilled legal mind and also political operator. 41 00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 1: He knows what they're trying to do here, how they're 42 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 1: trying to back him into a corner, and the Democrats 43 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,160 Speaker 1: will smear his reputation. They'll throw him under the bus 44 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: as quickly as they can. But he was parrying and 45 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:13,519 Speaker 1: jousting and winning today on Capitol Hill as they the 46 00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 1: Democrats tried to land a blow on him, they just 47 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:19,920 Speaker 1: couldn't do it. He knows what's up. He's handling this 48 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 1: like a pro. He is a professional. He says. The 49 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 1: report will be out in a week. That's exactly within 50 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: the timeline that he has stated from the beginning. The People, 51 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 1: and we've played the soundbites for you here on the show, 52 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 1: People at MSNBC and all these other places that claim 53 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 1: there's a cover up. Oh, it smells like a cover up. No, No, 54 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: that does not smell there's a cover up. And before 55 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:48,880 Speaker 1: they can set up the narrative of oh, they're redacting 56 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 1: information based on political whim no no. Barr explained today 57 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: in some detail what will be removed from the report, 58 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 1: why it will be removed, and that will in fact 59 00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 1: be listed. The reasoning for the redaction will be listed 60 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 1: and color coded in the document playclip thirteen. Now. In 61 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: my letter of the March twenty ninth, I identified four 62 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 1: areas that I feel should be redacted, and I think 63 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 1: most people would agree. The first is grand jury information 64 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:27,040 Speaker 1: six E material. The second is information that the intelligence 65 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 1: community believes would reveal intelligence sources and methods. The third 66 00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:37,159 Speaker 1: or information in the report that could interfere with ongoing prosecutions. 67 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 1: You will recall that the Special Council did spin off 68 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 1: a number of cases that are still being pursued, and 69 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 1: we want to make sure that none of the information 70 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 1: in the report would impinge upon either the ability of 71 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 1: the prosecutors to prosecutecute the cases or the fairness to 72 00:04:53,839 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 1: the defendants. And finally, we intend to redact information that 73 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:06,040 Speaker 1: implicates the privacy or reputational interests of peripheral players where 74 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:11,039 Speaker 1: there is a decision not to charge them. Does any 75 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:15,680 Speaker 1: of that sound unreasonable, of course not. In fact, he's 76 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:20,160 Speaker 1: just following the guidelines. He's doing what DJ policy tells 77 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 1: him he should do. Unlike Comey, who, for example, decided 78 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,360 Speaker 1: to stand in front of Loretta Lynch in place of 79 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 1: Loretta Lynch and say that there will be no charges 80 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 1: against Hillary because FBI sanctimony. Chief Komy thought that that 81 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 1: was what he felt like doing at that point in time. 82 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:45,200 Speaker 1: Bill Barr is a professional and an ethical guy, and 83 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 1: yet here we are Democrats pretending that he is bought 84 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 1: and paid for by Trump, or that there's been some 85 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:56,039 Speaker 1: cover up, some effort to obscure this report. They're going 86 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:57,600 Speaker 1: to have a really tough time for those who are 87 00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 1: paying attention. It's going to be difficult. It's going to 88 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,919 Speaker 1: be hard for them to explain how this is a 89 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:13,279 Speaker 1: cover up. When Mueller was offered was offered the ability 90 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 1: to review Barr's summary letter of the Mueller Report findings, 91 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 1: here is what he said about that. Here's Bill Barr 92 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:28,160 Speaker 1: Play twelve, the letter of the twenty fourth. Mister Muller's 93 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:31,279 Speaker 1: team did not play a role in drafting that document, 94 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:34,360 Speaker 1: although we offered him the opportunity to review it before 95 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:38,960 Speaker 1: we sent it out, and he declined that the letter 96 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:42,159 Speaker 1: on the twenty ninth. I don't believe that that was 97 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 1: reviewed by mister Mueller or that they participated in drafting 98 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:51,160 Speaker 1: that letter. So he's just telling them what happened here. 99 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 1: But they made the offer. If you are trying to 100 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:58,080 Speaker 1: play games here and misrepresent the Muller Report, would you say, hey, 101 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,279 Speaker 1: do you want to review this and then tell us 102 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:02,360 Speaker 1: if you're okay with with with the language we use. 103 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 1: Of course not mother knows that Bob, I'm sorry, I 104 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 1: did it. Bill Barr understands what's happening here. He knows 105 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 1: that Barr isn't going to First of all, the idea 106 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 1: that Barr would be able to misrepresent this and get 107 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 1: away with it is crazy. I mean, Muller would would 108 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 1: his team would object to it. They would tell people. 109 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 1: So that's not what happened. And ultimately it's a yes 110 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: or no situation. Will there be charges no? Will there 111 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 1: be obstruction charges no? Will there be collusion or conspiracy charges? No? 112 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 1: These are issues of fact. The biggest problem that the 113 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 1: leftists the Democrats are going to have though with this 114 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 1: whole situation is that they're going to say that their 115 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 1: redactions are unfair. See that it's the hidden information, the 116 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 1: information you can't see. That's where the real collusion is. 117 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 1: That's where the bad things are happening. Only one problem 118 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 1: with that. Muller is working with Bar on the redactions. 119 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 1: So the Muller team is a part of deciding what 120 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 1: should be and should not be redacted. Bar smart enough 121 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 1: to bring him into that process, and so when people 122 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 1: inevitably in the Congress will say, oh, but what about this, 123 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 1: and we can't see that try to make something of this. 124 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 1: They will have very little ground to stand on. Now, 125 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:29,239 Speaker 1: that doesn't mean they won't say it. They're demagogues, they lie. 126 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,679 Speaker 1: They've invested so much in this crazy narrative of Trump 127 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 1: as the evil Manchurion candidate doing prutens bidding for the Kremlin. 128 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 1: Didn't happen. Now they have to find a way to justify, 129 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 1: not just to themselves but to their voters what happened here. 130 00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 1: I don't think that the Democrats, the Democrat base is 131 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 1: really upset that they were lied to. I think a 132 00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:57,719 Speaker 1: lot of them probably knew they're being lied to. I 133 00:08:57,720 --> 00:08:59,800 Speaker 1: think they're upset that they didn't get the results they 134 00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 1: were promised. That Muller's gift to the American people in 135 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:08,199 Speaker 1: twenty nineteen was not an indictment of the President of 136 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 1: United States. I think that's I think Democrats are angry 137 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:13,200 Speaker 1: about that. They can handle a lie as long as 138 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:16,960 Speaker 1: they get the outcome they want, but they are going 139 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 1: to be very upset with anything less than the Congress 140 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:23,439 Speaker 1: will be the Democrats in Congress upset with anything less 141 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:27,960 Speaker 1: than the full unredacted report, and Barr has already said, sorry, 142 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:29,680 Speaker 1: that's not what the gude. Let's say you're not going 143 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 1: to get the full unredacted report. I'm open to your 144 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,840 Speaker 1: reasoning as to why you need to see it, but 145 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:40,319 Speaker 1: it doesn't work that way. Doesn't work that way. Democrats 146 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,200 Speaker 1: are going to kick and scream and moan and wail, 147 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 1: but Bars got them. He's this guy was tremendously effective today. 148 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:54,359 Speaker 1: He was laying waste to the stupidity of the Democrat winers. 149 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 1: We got more on this report and also than obviously 150 00:09:56,800 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 1: the immigration crisis coming up here team in just a moment, 151 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,840 Speaker 1: and so stay with me. Remember when the left called 152 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 1: the Green New Deal bold, or how about their bold 153 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:08,720 Speaker 1: defensive anti semitism in the House. I think they're mistaking 154 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 1: bold for something else because the way I define bold 155 00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 1: is the taste of freedom I get every morning with 156 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:17,559 Speaker 1: my Black Rifle Coffee.

It's been reported that the report is 174 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:22,160 Speaker 1: three hundred to four hundred pages, and I use the 175 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:28,720 Speaker 1: term reported because we have no idea along it actually is. 176 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:33,560 Speaker 1: All we have is your four page summary, which seems 177 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 1: to cherry pick from the report to draw the most 178 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:42,679 Speaker 1: favorable conclusion possible for the President. And in many ways 179 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:49,440 Speaker 1: your letter raises more question than it answers Ah yes, 180 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:55,200 Speaker 1: Democrat ne need Allowy there who is going with the 181 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 1: Pelosi talking for the Democrats raises more questions than I know. 182 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:07,320 Speaker 1: It doesn't. No, it doesn't, a man, because what really matters? Right? 183 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 1: You know what? What what's the most important part of 184 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 1: all of this? You know, if you're getting your college 185 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 1: admission response in the mail, does it really matter you 186 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:23,839 Speaker 1: know more that you get all the different paperwork for 187 00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 1: the process or they send you one one paragraph it says, Sara, 188 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 1: you're not in. I think you kind of know. I 189 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:31,319 Speaker 1: think I think you got the most important part. But 190 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 1: the sorrow you're not in. No charges. If there are 191 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 1: no charges, then there is no basis upon which to 192 00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 1: bring criminal charges against the President United States or anybody 193 00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:46,280 Speaker 1: else that was caught up in this Russia collusion investigation. 194 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 1: That's what matters. I just think it's so funny this 195 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:52,679 Speaker 1: congresswoman is She's like, we don't know what's in the report, 196 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:58,120 Speaker 1: but I know that you're being too nice to the president. Meanwhile, 197 00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 1: he offered Mueller the opportunity to read over his summary 198 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:07,559 Speaker 1: of the findings. Mueller declined. Mueller is working with him 199 00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 1: now in the redactions, which is very very important because 200 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 1: they're gonna lie to you a lot about this, and 201 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:15,559 Speaker 1: the Democrats are just hoping to demagogue this issue by 202 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 1: making it sound like there's something going on here that 203 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 1: is not on the up and up. But that's why 204 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 1: it's so important when Barr has to just lay it 205 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:32,440 Speaker 1: down for them that there are very good reasons why 206 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 1: there will be information. They're not given very good reasons, 207 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 1: completely fair and open reasons. Now the information will be 208 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 1: completely fair and open. But this is this is where 209 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 1: you're we're gonna have to focus our energy because there's 210 00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 1: gonna be a lot of lies told about this. This 211 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 1: is why Bill Barr, if I call him Bob by 212 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:56,040 Speaker 1: the way, I apologize, but it's Bill. Obviously Bill Barr 213 00:13:56,960 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 1: had to explain to members of Congress today what six E, 214 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:03,560 Speaker 1: which is Grand Jury material, what it means, and what 215 00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 1: the precedent is for this play fourteen not if it 216 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 1: violates the law, and we believe six E does apply 217 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 1: to members of Congress. This whole mechanism for the Special Council, 218 00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: as I said, was established during the Clinton administration in 219 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:22,680 Speaker 1: the wake of ken Star's report, and that's why the 220 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 1: current rule says that the report should be kept confidential 221 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 1: because there was a lot of reaction against the publication 222 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 1: of ken Star's report, and many of the people who 223 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 1: are right now calling for release of this report were 224 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 1: basically castigating ken Star and others for releasing the Star report. 225 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 1: I don't intend at this stage to send the full, 226 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:50,320 Speaker 1: unredacted report to the committee. I like how Barr just 227 00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 1: turns us all around them. It's like, look, Democrats, you guys, 228 00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 1: you guys set the precedent. Go back to Clinton era. 229 00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:59,080 Speaker 1: You know there there were decisions made then that are 230 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 1: now the practice for special counsel and going forward there 231 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:05,280 Speaker 1: there were rules of the road established. Bar is just 232 00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:09,720 Speaker 1: obeying the rules of the road. But oh, what a surprise. 233 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 1: Human Democrats are hypocritical, and then they don't care what 234 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 1: the rules were beforehand. Now they just want what they 235 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 1: want when they want it. They're desperate to get access 236 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:22,680 Speaker 1: to whatever information they can in this report to try 237 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 1: and use it to tarnish Trump, to trash this administration. 238 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 1: That's all this is. And you know what they'll what 239 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:32,760 Speaker 1: they'll say about the redactions no matter what, that they're unfair, 240 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 1: even though Muller is involved in They're going to say 241 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:41,120 Speaker 1: that they are unfair. This is Democrats licking wounds to 242 00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 1: some extent because they know that they, at least the 243 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 1: ones who are not completely delusional, have looked like absolute 244 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 1: clowns on this issue. They've been wrong, wrong, and wrong 245 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 1: again on Russia collusion, and now they're looking for somebody 246 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 1: to seek sink their teeth into so that they can 247 00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:03,320 Speaker 1: not look like ineffective buffoons to their constituents, to the 248 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:07,840 Speaker 1: Democrat base. But no matter what, isn't this report And 249 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 1: as I said, yes, I remember I told you my 250 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 1: sources were claiming next week turns out they were correct. 251 00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:15,880 Speaker 1: When this thing comes out, I will read every page 252 00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 1: of it that is out there for public view, and 253 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:20,560 Speaker 1: we will break it down together. I can assure you 254 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:22,440 Speaker 1: of this, No matter what is said in that report, 255 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 1: there will be some Democrat effort to make it into 256 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:31,160 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, how could they not have brought charges 257 00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 1: against them? Because here's what they have to do. Find 258 00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 1: a way to equate the non prosecution decision against Hillary 259 00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:44,720 Speaker 1: Clinton with the non prosecution decision against Trump that's coming. 260 00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:49,280 Speaker 1: Because they know that right now we have a two 261 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 1: tiered justice system, one for connected, powerful, important Democrats and 262 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:59,280 Speaker 1: one for conservatives, one for Republicans. The DOJ does not 263 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 1: treat these things the same way. Andy McCabe, formerly of VFBI, 264 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:06,760 Speaker 1: lies into owth and does not get charged. General Flynn, 265 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:11,480 Speaker 1: Trump's national security advisor, misremembers a conversation that he thinks 266 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:13,920 Speaker 1: he's having with colleagues, and they charged him with felony 267 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:21,000 Speaker 1: lying under oath. Hillary Clinton has over a hundred classified 268 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 1: emails on her private unclassified server system, which meant that 269 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 1: it was on the server, it transited the server, it 270 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:32,160 Speaker 1: was sent over open lines. She did this over and over. 271 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:34,959 Speaker 1: Some of them were marked classified, even though she pretended 272 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:38,640 Speaker 1: they weren't. People remove classification markings, which is a huge 273 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:41,600 Speaker 1: security violation, so they could send them over unclassified systems. 274 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:47,800 Speaker 1: The Espionage Act statute that applies is clear on recklessness. 275 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:51,199 Speaker 1: Comy removed the word recklessness because he would have been 276 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:53,640 Speaker 1: making the case for charges and they didn't charge her. 277 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:57,000 Speaker 1: Why because she was gonna be the next president. That's 278 00:17:57,040 --> 00:18:00,720 Speaker 1: what it was all about. They're gonna try expert Lee 279 00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 1: to whitewash that history by saying, we'll see Hillary got 280 00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:08,040 Speaker 1: the benefit of the doubt. Trump got the benefit of 281 00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:11,360 Speaker 1: the doubt. Oh no, no, no, no, Hillary was a criminal. 282 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:14,920 Speaker 1: She broke the law. Trump did not break the law. 283 00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:20,119 Speaker 1: Trump had anti Trump zealots on his trail with unlimited 284 00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 1: resources and a mandate to take him down, and they 285 00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 1: couldn't do it. Hillary and Trump are not the same 286 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:29,600 Speaker 1: on this matter. Do not believe the lies that you 287 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 1: will hear on this because I'm telling you that's where 288 00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:35,119 Speaker 1: it's going to go. The whole that they don't have 289 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:39,199 Speaker 1: enough to say that Trump, you know, based on this 290 00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:40,800 Speaker 1: at least, they don't have enough to say he's going 291 00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 1: to be impeached. Maybe they'll get something on the instruction 292 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:46,000 Speaker 1: side that they'll make that case, even though it'll be 293 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 1: overblown and nonsense. But what they really need to do 294 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:53,360 Speaker 1: is erase this story of Hillary got away with it 295 00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:58,760 Speaker 1: and Trump had to be you know, the absolutely clean 296 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 1: or else that's what happened. So they're going to say, oh, 297 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:04,360 Speaker 1: they both got a pass, even though trust me, they 298 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:09,080 Speaker 1: did not. Only Hillary got the pass. We have bad laws. 299 00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:12,159 Speaker 1: Nobody can believe these decisions we're getting from the Ninth Circuit. 300 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:16,080 Speaker 1: It's a disgrace. And so we're finding the bad laws, 301 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:19,440 Speaker 1: the bad things that are coming out of Congress. You 302 00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:22,879 Speaker 1: have a Democrat Congress that's substructing. You talk about obstruction, 303 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:26,560 Speaker 1: the greatest obstruction anyone's ever seen. All they have to 304 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:28,520 Speaker 1: do is spend twenty minutes and they can fix this 305 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 1: whole problem. We have the worst laws of any country 306 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:34,760 Speaker 1: anywhere in the world, whether it's catch and release or 307 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:37,199 Speaker 1: or any one of them. I mean, I could name 308 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:38,840 Speaker 1: I could sit here and name them. But if you 309 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 1: get rid of catch and release, chain migration, visa lottery, 310 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:48,480 Speaker 1: you have to fix the asylum situation. It's ridiculous. You 311 00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 1: have people coming in claiming asylum. They're all reading exactly 312 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:54,399 Speaker 1: what the lawyer gives them to have a piece of 313 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:56,440 Speaker 1: paper and read what that is, and all of a sudden, 314 00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:58,919 Speaker 1: you're entitled to asylum. And some of these people are 315 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:06,119 Speaker 1: not people you wanted country. President's completely correct here that 316 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:10,360 Speaker 1: we have we're fighting bad laws that Congress is not acting. 317 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:14,120 Speaker 1: And he mentioned that Ninth Circuit, the Ninth Circuit judge, 318 00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:19,920 Speaker 1: I mean, the Ninth Circuit is effectively now determining national 319 00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:23,280 Speaker 1: immigration policy. And this is not the way it is 320 00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:28,400 Speaker 1: supposed to be that one federal judge in the Ninth 321 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 1: Circuit can decide to put a nationwide injunction on immigration. 322 00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:37,919 Speaker 1: Think about what this means, what can't the Ninth Circuit do? 323 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 1: Can a Ninth Circuit judge say the president has no 324 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:46,200 Speaker 1: right to to order the movements of military forces in 325 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:49,280 Speaker 1: a time of war? Can the Ninth Circuit overrule Trump 326 00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:51,239 Speaker 1: if he wants to get us out of Afghanistan? Up 327 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:54,399 Speaker 1: up you others some explanation. I'm sure they can come 328 00:20:54,480 --> 00:21:00,800 Speaker 1: up with for that. This is outrageous. And what you 329 00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:04,440 Speaker 1: have is a judiciary that doesn't have to even be 330 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 1: a majority of left wing Obama appointee nutcases, but just 331 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,840 Speaker 1: have a handful of them spread out throughout the country 332 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:17,880 Speaker 1: and they're able to object to federal policy and put 333 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 1: the brakes on the Trump agenda. You know, at some 334 00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:22,760 Speaker 1: point we have to ask the question, what is the 335 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:27,600 Speaker 1: point of the elections that we've had. If one appointee 336 00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:31,320 Speaker 1: federal judge who hasn't won any election can just say Nope, 337 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:35,520 Speaker 1: the president can't do that, not allowed to do that. 338 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 1: It's completely unacceptable. It's just wrong. The Democrats are all 339 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:50,400 Speaker 1: focusing right now on child separation. That's all they want 340 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:52,880 Speaker 1: to talk about. They want to talk about child separation. Meanwhile, 341 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:59,400 Speaker 1: children are separated in this country from their parents anytime 342 00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:02,199 Speaker 1: they commit a crime. Crossing the border is a crime. 343 00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:05,520 Speaker 1: And yet you don't see people that are all wailing 344 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:09,600 Speaker 1: and gnashing their teeth and crying crocodile tears because of 345 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:12,800 Speaker 1: somebody that's arrested for drunk driving or possession of drugs 346 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:14,879 Speaker 1: or and you know a lot of them, single parents, 347 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:16,560 Speaker 1: no one to take care of the kids, separated from 348 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 1: their kids. That happens. You don't get to bring your 349 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:23,880 Speaker 1: child into the prison cell with you. But they're focusing 350 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:28,480 Speaker 1: on this and pretending that this is explicitly and intentionally 351 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:30,639 Speaker 1: only something that Trump has done. No one else has 352 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:33,440 Speaker 1: ever done this before, and that that's what the policy 353 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:35,639 Speaker 1: was separation, or the policy was enforced the law. The 354 00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 1: law says you arrest people for crossing illegally. There's a 355 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:44,200 Speaker 1: President Trump said play fifteen just so you understand, President 356 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:48,399 Speaker 1: Obama separated the children. Those cages that were shown, I 357 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:52,600 Speaker 1: think they were very inappropriate. They were built by President 358 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:58,680 Speaker 1: Obama's administration, not by TRUMPA. President Obama had child separation. 359 00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:01,920 Speaker 1: Take a look. The press knows it. You know it, 360 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 1: we all know it. I didn't have I'm the one 361 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 1: that stopped it. President Obama had child separation. Now I'll 362 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 1: tell you something once you don't have it. That's why 363 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 1: you see many more people coming that coming like it's 364 00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:20,280 Speaker 1: a picnic, because let's go to Disneyland. President Obama separated children. 365 00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:23,919 Speaker 1: They had child separation. I was the one that changed it. Okay, 366 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:28,639 Speaker 1: thank you very much. Here's a piece from McClatchey in 367 00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 1: June twenty eighteen. Last year, Yes, Obama, President Barack Obama 368 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:37,679 Speaker 1: separated parents from their children at the border. Obama prosecuted 369 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,639 Speaker 1: mothers for coming to the United States illegally. He fast 370 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 1: tracked deportations, and he housed unaccompanied children intense cities for 371 00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 1: much of the country. And President Donald Trump, the prevailing 372 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:50,720 Speaker 1: belief is that Obama was the president who went easier 373 00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 1: on immigrants. Neither Obama nor Democrats created trump zero tolerance policy, 374 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 1: which calls for every legal border cross are to be 375 00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,560 Speaker 1: prosecuted and lead to their children being detained in separate 376 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:03,439 Speaker 1: facilities before being shipped to a shelter and eventually a 377 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:07,119 Speaker 1: sponsor family. But Obama's policy helped create the roadmap of 378 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:11,720 Speaker 1: enforcement that Trump has been following and building on. So, yes, 379 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:15,399 Speaker 1: there was separation that occurred. There would be separation if 380 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:18,000 Speaker 1: there was reason to believe that the child was in 381 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:20,719 Speaker 1: danger or that this was part of a smuggling operation, 382 00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 1: and they didn't always get it right. And if you're 383 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:25,760 Speaker 1: an unaccompanied child, guess what they did, hold you in 384 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 1: a quote cage. But as is the case all the time, 385 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 1: there's just different rules when talking about how Republicans do things, 386 00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:36,280 Speaker 1: how the media describes it, and how the media describes 387 00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:40,080 Speaker 1: when Democrats do things. I mean, here's what Obama said 388 00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:43,199 Speaker 1: back when he was president about the immigration debate overall. 389 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:46,560 Speaker 1: Play clip eight. This will be interesting. Should we want 390 00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 1: to encourage newcomers to learn the language of the country 391 00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:52,560 Speaker 1: they're moving to. Of course, does that mean that they 392 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:55,960 Speaker 1: can never use their own language? No, of course that 393 00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:59,200 Speaker 1: it doesn't mean that. But you know it's not racist 394 00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 1: to say, ah, if you're going to be here, then 395 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:03,919 Speaker 1: you should learn the language of the country that you 396 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 1: just arrived at, because we need to have some sort 397 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:09,800 Speaker 1: of common language in which all of us can work 398 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 1: and learn and understand each other in order to push 399 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:18,919 Speaker 1: back against what are clearly racist motives of some. We 400 00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:22,919 Speaker 1: can't label everybody who is disturbed by immigration as racist. 401 00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:27,280 Speaker 1: Don't call everybody's kind of problems with our immigration system 402 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 1: a racist, Obama said, telling people learn English is okay. 403 00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:33,400 Speaker 1: Oh well really, I mean you and I know that, 404 00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:37,480 Speaker 1: but the media doesn't know that. Here's what we do know, though, 405 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,960 Speaker 1: is this is really all about the Democrats shift to 406 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:45,679 Speaker 1: open borders. Trump gets it Play seventeen. We are building 407 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:47,919 Speaker 1: a lot of wall. It's getting built. Some of you 408 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 1: saw that last week when we went We had a 409 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:54,399 Speaker 1: great presentation of a new stretch. But we're building a 410 00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:57,400 Speaker 1: lot of wall, and we're being very strong on the butter. 411 00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 1: But we're bucking a court system that ever ever rules 412 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:05,879 Speaker 1: for us. And we're bucking really bad things with Congress, 413 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:08,960 Speaker 1: with the Democrats in Congress not willing to act. They 414 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:12,000 Speaker 1: want to have open borders, which means they want to 415 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,880 Speaker 1: have crime, They want to have drugs pouring into our country. 416 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:17,639 Speaker 1: They don't want to act. We have to close up 417 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:20,000 Speaker 1: the borders. We're doing it, but we're doing it. I 418 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 1: could do it much faster if they would act. So 419 00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:27,600 Speaker 1: it's a terrible thing. The Democrats in Congress, what they're 420 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:30,560 Speaker 1: doing and the obstruction. They don't want to fix it, 421 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 1: and we have to fix it. They want open borders. 422 00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 1: They want to have millions of people pouring into our country. 423 00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:41,960 Speaker 1: They don't even want to know who they are. President's right. 424 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 1: They just want more and more to come in. Don't 425 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:48,359 Speaker 1: want to work to solve this problem. Don't see it 426 00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 1: as a problem. Democrats don't believe it's really a problem. 427 00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:54,600 Speaker 1: It just needs to be streamlined. You see, it doesn't 428 00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:57,960 Speaker 1: need to be stopped. Well that's a major difference, isn't it. 429 00:26:57,960 --> 00:26:59,680 Speaker 1: But it's not one of the Democratic parties willing to 430 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:03,119 Speaker 1: be honest about and this is what we are up against. 431 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:10,440 Speaker 1: Care was founded after nine eleven because they recognized that 432 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:14,360 Speaker 1: some people did something and that all of us were 433 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 1: starting to lose access to our civil liberties. The new 434 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:26,320 Speaker 1: second favorite Democrat left wing member of Congress there ilhan Omar, 435 00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:31,440 Speaker 1: referring to the nine to eleven attacks that killed three 436 00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:41,480 Speaker 1: thousand Americans as some people who did something. I'm quite 437 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:45,159 Speaker 1: sure that if it was not a female, minority Muslim 438 00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:48,119 Speaker 1: member of Congress who said that, and a Democrat, of course, 439 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 1: that the media would maybe raise some eyebrows, that there 440 00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:59,080 Speaker 1: would get some additional coverage of referring to the greatest 441 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:03,639 Speaker 1: attack on the United States since Pearl Harbor as a 442 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 1: thing that some people did. I think that that would 443 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:11,919 Speaker 1: get a bit of attention. But you see, she is 444 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:15,200 Speaker 1: in a protected status. She is in a protected class, 445 00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:19,560 Speaker 1: in fact, in several protected classes. From the perspective of 446 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:26,479 Speaker 1: the left, Democrat, female, Muslim, and ethnic minority, these are 447 00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:29,440 Speaker 1: all and an immigrant. You add all of these things 448 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 1: together and the Democrats will they will never abandon her. 449 00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:36,480 Speaker 1: It does not matter what she say, how anti semitic. 450 00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:39,320 Speaker 1: Something she says is, yeah, maybe they'll censure her, they'll say, oh, 451 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:42,280 Speaker 1: that was naughty, don't do that again, but they will 452 00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 1: stick alongside her. And she was defending CARE there, the 453 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:52,040 Speaker 1: Council on American Islamic Relations, which has been effectively in 454 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 1: Islamophobia hyperventilation organization for a long time. Every time there's 455 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:00,320 Speaker 1: a terror attack, and I used to go on even 456 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 1: at CNN believe it or not, and try to analyze 457 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,760 Speaker 1: what's going on, I'd have to have someone from CARE 458 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:08,080 Speaker 1: come on, and they would you be saying, how the 459 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:11,520 Speaker 1: real you know, dozens of Americans would be lying dead 460 00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:13,840 Speaker 1: from a terror attack at the hands of a Jihottes. 461 00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:16,440 Speaker 1: But I'd have to hear from CARE about how you 462 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 1: know the real problem is that someone said something mean 463 00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 1: to a woman wearing a headscarf somewhere on the subway, 464 00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 1: and that's what we have to be on guard against. 465 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:28,400 Speaker 1: No I think in the hours after a mass casualty 466 00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:31,320 Speaker 1: terror attack at the hands of a gihottest in the 467 00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:33,680 Speaker 1: United States, I think that the big problem is the 468 00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 1: gi Hottest. I don't think that the primary issue we 469 00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:40,400 Speaker 1: have to worry about is Islamophobia, which is what we 470 00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:44,080 Speaker 1: would constantly here. In fact, I've always said said that 471 00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:47,080 Speaker 1: the United States does not give itself that the American 472 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:50,200 Speaker 1: people don't give ourselves enough credit for the lack of 473 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 1: reprisal attacks, the lack of what would be unethical and immoral, 474 00:29:57,360 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 1: but a lot of people expected them to happened, that 475 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:03,479 Speaker 1: kind of attacks against Muslim Americans that could have been 476 00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:06,560 Speaker 1: driven by hate and fear and anxiety after nine eleven, 477 00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:10,720 Speaker 1: In fact, those attacks were few and far between, which 478 00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:12,920 Speaker 1: is a good thing, something to be celebrated. I don't 479 00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:16,200 Speaker 1: think we give ourselves, the American people, enough credit for 480 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 1: the fact that we took that situation for all it 481 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 1: was well in this country to each other. Now. We 482 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 1: could talk about the Afghanistan war, the Iraq War, and 483 00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:30,120 Speaker 1: those decisions. That's separate, But we as the American people 484 00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:33,200 Speaker 1: We did not let that separate us. We did not 485 00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:40,480 Speaker 1: decide that our Muslim American neighbors, friends, colleagues were to 486 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:42,880 Speaker 1: blame for this or part of the problem for this. 487 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 1: We did not do that. That is not an accurate 488 00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:49,600 Speaker 1: reading of the history. But it is still one that 489 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 1: some people who have an incentive to exaggerate our divisions, 490 00:30:55,640 --> 00:31:00,760 Speaker 1: to exaggerate the hatred in this country for their own purposes. Well, 491 00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:03,120 Speaker 1: we'll stick to that. And that's why, you know, ilan Omar, 492 00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:05,480 Speaker 1: on the one hand, nine to eleven, some people who 493 00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:09,680 Speaker 1: did something, but oh man, Muslim civil rights were being destroyed. 494 00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:11,479 Speaker 1: That's not true. I mean I was. I was in 495 00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:16,080 Speaker 1: the unit of the NYPD that was doing quote mosque surveillance. 496 00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:20,080 Speaker 1: We were actually running investigations involving terrorism, which just so 497 00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:23,840 Speaker 1: happened to often. I'm just telling you, the facts often 498 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 1: involve people that would go to mosques. And there was 499 00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:30,400 Speaker 1: a lot and there are there are many many Muslims 500 00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:32,720 Speaker 1: in my unit, and there are a lot of people 501 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:35,160 Speaker 1: who were watching over us to make sure that what 502 00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:38,000 Speaker 1: we did was constitutional and respectful of the First Amendment. 503 00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 1: And but still, you know, ACLU and all of them, 504 00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:46,040 Speaker 1: they whatever they can do to you know, put us 505 00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:49,120 Speaker 1: in greater jeopardy. The ACLU likes to do as you know, 506 00:31:49,160 --> 00:31:51,160 Speaker 1: it's just it's just like the Southern Poverty Law Center. 507 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:54,000 Speaker 1: These have become left wing attack organizations. They're not really 508 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:57,880 Speaker 1: devoted to any particular principle other than destroy the right, 509 00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:05,479 Speaker 1: destroy the concern conservative ideology in this country really and 510 00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:09,280 Speaker 1: traditional what's thought of as traditional American values. Just subvert 511 00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:11,920 Speaker 1: them at every turn. That's what the ACLU does, and 512 00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:15,000 Speaker 1: the Southern Poverty Law Center just goes after conservatives. I mean, 513 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,680 Speaker 1: that's what they do. But I thought this was a 514 00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 1: very interesting exchange today speaking of Ilhan Omar, and you know, 515 00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:26,320 Speaker 1: the worry over civil civil liberties of Muslims after nine 516 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:29,120 Speaker 1: to eleven, which I'm not saying there was shouldn't have 517 00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:30,959 Speaker 1: been any worry. There was worry about all of our 518 00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 1: civil liberties, by the way, but it was always overblown 519 00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 1: and there was a lot of oh, you know, the 520 00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 1: primary fear here should be islamophobia. Attorney General Bill Barr 521 00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:44,440 Speaker 1: today was asked as part of those members of Congress 522 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 1: that were trying to just pepper him with all kinds 523 00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:50,720 Speaker 1: of questions. He was asked about hate crimes now now 524 00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:53,440 Speaker 1: before you hear what the Attorney general, who I thought 525 00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:57,920 Speaker 1: did a masterful job today, And really, you know, they've 526 00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:00,239 Speaker 1: met their match with this guy. He knows stuff than 527 00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:02,800 Speaker 1: they do. He's smarter than these members of Congress are. 528 00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:05,800 Speaker 1: He knows the law better. And they're not gonna They're 529 00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:07,720 Speaker 1: not playing any games with this guy. I mean, Bill 530 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:11,040 Speaker 1: Barr is a breath of fresh air over at DJ. 531 00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:13,760 Speaker 1: You know, it took it took Trump a while to 532 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:16,000 Speaker 1: get it right, but his ag now is the right ag. 533 00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 1: And here is what Barr said. You know, we always 534 00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:23,240 Speaker 1: hear this notion this, We always are told this talking 535 00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:26,880 Speaker 1: point that hate crimes under Trump are on the rise. 536 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,120 Speaker 1: Oh there's a rise in hate and there'll be all 537 00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:33,440 Speaker 1: these articles about it, and well, the attorney generals up 538 00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:35,880 Speaker 1: on the federal statistics about hate crimes. Here's what he said, 539 00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:39,560 Speaker 1: Play twenty two. We have an enviable record of prosecuting 540 00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:43,800 Speaker 1: hate crimes at the at the same or higher rate 541 00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:46,920 Speaker 1: than previous administrations. As far as I'm a winner, i'd 542 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 1: have to see what other what else you're talking. Are 543 00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:52,360 Speaker 1: you familiar with the data of what the percentage had 544 00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:56,680 Speaker 1: they increased under the Trump administration. I think there are 545 00:33:56,720 --> 00:34:03,120 Speaker 1: indications they have they increased? Yes, hate whether hate crimes 546 00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:06,600 Speaker 1: versus the prosecution of hate crimes? Hate crimes? Have they 547 00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:10,359 Speaker 1: increased under this administrator? I haven't seen any data, you know, 548 00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:13,000 Speaker 1: going from two thousand and sis, So is it a priority? 549 00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:15,160 Speaker 1: You haven't looked at the data, You're not aware of it. 550 00:34:15,480 --> 00:34:19,000 Speaker 1: As I said in my confirmation hearings, I'm very concerned 551 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:22,680 Speaker 1: about hate crimes and tend to vigorously pursue them. The 552 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:25,560 Speaker 1: data that I have seen have showed an increase going 553 00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:30,719 Speaker 1: back to twenty thirteen, So I do I agree with 554 00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:33,160 Speaker 1: you that they have been increasing, but I don't. I 555 00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:35,680 Speaker 1: have seen no data to say that it's it's different 556 00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:40,879 Speaker 1: under the Trump administration. Wait a second, you mean there's 557 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:44,720 Speaker 1: not some huge spike and hate crimes under Trump. But 558 00:34:44,719 --> 00:34:47,120 Speaker 1: but that's what all the liberal talking heads say all 559 00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:49,160 Speaker 1: the time, that Trump is so hateful and there's all 560 00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:54,760 Speaker 1: the hate crimes. That's just not representative of the facts. 561 00:34:56,239 --> 00:35:01,840 Speaker 1: That's just not what's going on here. The truth is, 562 00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:04,799 Speaker 1: if you really want to know, hate crimes have been 563 00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:09,400 Speaker 1: on the rise because reporting has been on the rise, 564 00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:12,120 Speaker 1: and what is considered a hate crime is on the rise. 565 00:35:13,560 --> 00:35:17,080 Speaker 1: Now there's no pro hate crime constituency in American politics. 566 00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 1: You know, no person should ever be attacked or even 567 00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:22,480 Speaker 1: just no one should even be rude to somebody or 568 00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:25,239 Speaker 1: you know, or or treat someone differently, you know, not 569 00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:28,640 Speaker 1: bring them their menu at the restaurant with the same 570 00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:31,799 Speaker 1: speed because of their religion, their ethnicity. They're anything, right, 571 00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:34,799 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, America, this battle has been won. 572 00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:37,960 Speaker 1: The left pretends like it's being lost unless you give 573 00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:41,759 Speaker 1: them all the power. But this battle over normal Americans 574 00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:46,359 Speaker 1: seeing each other as as individuals of equal dignity and 575 00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:50,319 Speaker 1: worth and respect and God's children. That we have won 576 00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:52,040 Speaker 1: this as a society and as a culture. But the 577 00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:57,399 Speaker 1: left benefits so much from pretending that in fact, we're 578 00:35:57,440 --> 00:36:00,960 Speaker 1: losing ground, and this benefits them politically. It also allows 579 00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:04,560 Speaker 1: them to upren for all the news cameras an act 580 00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:07,160 Speaker 1: like they're the ones that are the new civil rights heroes. 581 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:10,960 Speaker 1: It's just not true. The biggest problem with it is 582 00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:13,759 Speaker 1: that the rise in hate crimes under Trump it's just 583 00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:18,240 Speaker 1: not a reflection of reality. Earlier this year, the Leadership 584 00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:22,080 Speaker 1: Institute had a field organizer named Hayden Williams peacefully helping 585 00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:25,480 Speaker 1: conservative students recruit for their group at UC Berkeley, and 586 00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:28,880 Speaker 1: he was viciously attacked by a radical leftist thug. This 587 00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:32,000 Speaker 1: was an ideological attack, my friends. Now, President Trump has 588 00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:36,120 Speaker 1: taken action, signing an executive order to protect conservative students 589 00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:38,719 Speaker 1: free speech. But we need more action and we need 590 00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:43,360 Speaker 1: your help. Support the Leadership Institute to defend conservative students 591 00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:45,480 Speaker 1: on campus. All you have to do is go to 592 00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:48,960 Speaker 1: take back the campus dot org because you see, the 593 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:53,160 Speaker 1: Leadership Institute is the premier organization for educating and training 594 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:55,719 Speaker 1: conservative college students. With a gift of as little as 595 00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:58,840 Speaker 1: five dollars a month, you help the Leadership Institute train 596 00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:02,520 Speaker 1: conservatives on campus so that we can actually win the 597 00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:05,600 Speaker 1: future of this country. Let's not seed the campus to 598 00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:09,560 Speaker 1: the left wing radicals anymore. Let's fight back. Please donate today, 599 00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:12,200 Speaker 1: go to take back the campus dot org and make 600 00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:16,399 Speaker 1: your urgent gift again. That's take back the campus dot org. 601 00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:20,200 Speaker 1: To put things into perspective, last year, agents in RGV 602 00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:24,040 Speaker 1: made one hundred and sixty two thousand apprehensions. We're ready 603 00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:27,000 Speaker 1: at one hundred forty seven thousand. At this pace. In 604 00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:29,680 Speaker 1: my sector alone, we will have more than two hundred 605 00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:32,719 Speaker 1: and sixty thousand apprehensions by the end of the fiscal year. 606 00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:37,080 Speaker 1: On average, we apprehend more than a thousand people illegally 607 00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:41,359 Speaker 1: crossing the border every day. That's roughly the capacity of 608 00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:46,200 Speaker 1: seventeen commercial buses. Last week, agents in my sector apprehended 609 00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:49,360 Speaker 1: one thousand and seven hundred and sixty six people in 610 00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:52,720 Speaker 1: a single twenty four hour period. We expect these numbers 611 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:55,240 Speaker 1: to continue to climb as we enter the summer months, 612 00:37:55,680 --> 00:37:59,680 Speaker 1: which will undoubtedly place both migrants and our board troll 613 00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:03,960 Speaker 1: age it's at significant risk. Rescue missions will increase as 614 00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:08,400 Speaker 1: a result, drawing additional personnel from our frontline law enforcement mission. 615 00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:14,400 Speaker 1: We are in the midst of what is a mass 616 00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:19,360 Speaker 1: migration from Central America into this country. That is what 617 00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:23,120 Speaker 1: is happening. It is going to be hundreds of thousands 618 00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:26,520 Speaker 1: of people soon, it will be millions of people if 619 00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:32,920 Speaker 1: we don't do something. You were hearing there from Rodolpho Karish, 620 00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:35,279 Speaker 1: who is the chief Border Patrol Agent of the Rio 621 00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:38,720 Speaker 1: Grand Valley sector of the border. He was just talking 622 00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:40,160 Speaker 1: some of you might have thought, and it would be 623 00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:43,120 Speaker 1: a completely legitimate thought to have. Wow, that's a lot 624 00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:44,879 Speaker 1: of a thousand a day at our southern border. That's 625 00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:48,319 Speaker 1: a lot. No, no, no, a thousand a day just 626 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:53,160 Speaker 1: in the Rio Grand Valley sector. Think about what that 627 00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:56,359 Speaker 1: means when you add into it that in the El 628 00:38:56,440 --> 00:39:00,960 Speaker 1: Paso sector, for example, they've had five hundred one thousand, 629 00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:04,839 Speaker 1: a couple of thousand over a very short period of time. 630 00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:08,279 Speaker 1: I mean, you look at the numbers and you see 631 00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:11,680 Speaker 1: what's happening here, and it is open season for a 632 00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:18,439 Speaker 1: legal entry into the United States. Our Border Patrol, which 633 00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:21,960 Speaker 1: is supposed to be a law enforcement organization, is being 634 00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:27,279 Speaker 1: repurposed for a largely humanitarian mission. Now this is not 635 00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:30,160 Speaker 1: to say that I want people at our southern border 636 00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:33,239 Speaker 1: to be in any jeopardy or danger. I understand the need, 637 00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:36,600 Speaker 1: and we do have an obligation just like we would 638 00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:38,759 Speaker 1: with any other people we take into custody, any other 639 00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:41,520 Speaker 1: prisoners or anyone else who breaks the law. You know, 640 00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:46,360 Speaker 1: you can't leave them unattended, unfed. This is just the 641 00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:51,400 Speaker 1: reality of state custody. You have to take care of people. 642 00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:54,560 Speaker 1: But that's a big problem when the people that are 643 00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:57,960 Speaker 1: doing the caretaking are supposed to be law enforcement officers, 644 00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:02,040 Speaker 1: not the Border Patrol. All Slash red Cross and mister 645 00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:08,239 Speaker 1: Karish of Border Patrol said this about what his officers 646 00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:11,040 Speaker 1: have to do now Play twenty. The majority of people 647 00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:14,160 Speaker 1: we are apprehending our family units and unaccompanied children from 648 00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:18,160 Speaker 1: the Northern Triangle countries of Guatemala, El Salvador, and Honduras. 649 00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:23,799 Speaker 1: Many are extremely vulnerable. Consequently, thirty to forty percent of 650 00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:27,600 Speaker 1: my daily workforce is doing humanitarian work at any given 651 00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:32,279 Speaker 1: point in time. This includes processing, karen feeding, hospital watch, 652 00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:37,040 Speaker 1: and transportation. It also means that at any given point time, 653 00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:40,120 Speaker 1: thirty to forty percent of my workforce is not available 654 00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:43,480 Speaker 1: to secure the border. An agent who's taken a migrant 655 00:40:43,520 --> 00:40:46,239 Speaker 1: to a hospital is not available in or to DiPT narcotics, 656 00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:49,280 Speaker 1: Nor are we able to respond to other smuggling events 657 00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:52,960 Speaker 1: or border intrusions when we encounter and apprehend large groups 658 00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:56,239 Speaker 1: of people. The bad guys know this. They know our 659 00:40:56,280 --> 00:41:01,000 Speaker 1: resources are stretched. Then, in addressing the humanitarian issue which 660 00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:05,279 Speaker 1: undermines our border security operations, they direct the movement of 661 00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:08,640 Speaker 1: large groups into certain border areas as a diversion to 662 00:41:08,760 --> 00:41:12,200 Speaker 1: facilitate the smuggling of drugs. This is an issue of 663 00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:18,080 Speaker 1: both national security and officers safety. So when Democrats say, 664 00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:22,160 Speaker 1: as they do frequently, that this is only a humanitarian crisis, 665 00:41:22,640 --> 00:41:29,560 Speaker 1: they're lying. The humanitarian crisis also creates a national security crisis. 666 00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:33,120 Speaker 1: National security from the perspective of drug smuggling in the 667 00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:36,080 Speaker 1: cartels and also just the human smuggling of we don't 668 00:41:36,080 --> 00:41:38,160 Speaker 1: know who's coming into this country, we don't know what 669 00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:41,680 Speaker 1: they plan on doing. There was just earlier this week 670 00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:46,919 Speaker 1: an individual arrested an ISIS sympathizer who plan to get 671 00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:50,640 Speaker 1: a vehicle and engage in a mass casualty vehicle attack 672 00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:54,600 Speaker 1: here in Washington, d C. There is no reason to 673 00:41:54,719 --> 00:41:59,719 Speaker 1: believe that we have control over who's coming into this 674 00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:02,960 Speaker 1: country and who's not. There's no reason to believe that 675 00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:06,120 Speaker 1: we are in a situation where we can tell who 676 00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:09,440 Speaker 1: is coming across in areas that are flooded already with 677 00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:13,040 Speaker 1: migrants who are surrendering themselves outside of ports of entry, 678 00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:20,720 Speaker 1: which is illegal. There is also from the same testimony today, 679 00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:26,800 Speaker 1: you have a Bordercool agent Krish saying that they've gotten 680 00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:33,320 Speaker 1: they've apprehended people in his sector alone from fifty different 681 00:42:33,360 --> 00:42:40,120 Speaker 1: countries including China, Bangladesh, Turkey, Egypt, and Romania. Now, remember 682 00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:45,000 Speaker 1: the way this process works. The people that they're capturing 683 00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:49,960 Speaker 1: who cross illegally can then claim what's called defensive asylum. Oh, 684 00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:52,480 Speaker 1: I actually want asylum in your country, and they can 685 00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:55,239 Speaker 1: go into the process too. They'll be led into the 686 00:42:55,320 --> 00:43:01,719 Speaker 1: United States. They will have a criminal prosecution against them 687 00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:04,000 Speaker 1: for the illegal entry, but that's only a misdemeanor, and 688 00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:06,840 Speaker 1: they may still be able to stay. But there are 689 00:43:07,239 --> 00:43:09,640 Speaker 1: a lot of people that get across that don't even 690 00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:14,160 Speaker 1: have to claim defensive asylum because the border is increasingly open. 691 00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:16,920 Speaker 1: You know, all you have to do is get past 692 00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:20,920 Speaker 1: that initial fence line and get into a populated area 693 00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:22,680 Speaker 1: and you're good to go. Border pchool is not going 694 00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:24,680 Speaker 1: to track you down. I've seen it. I've seen what 695 00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:30,959 Speaker 1: their resource constraints are. Fifty different countries, folks. How many 696 00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:32,719 Speaker 1: people do you have to be able to infiltrate into 697 00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:35,239 Speaker 1: the United States? You know, if you were from the 698 00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:38,600 Speaker 1: if you were an ISIS cell right now, and I'm 699 00:43:38,640 --> 00:43:40,680 Speaker 1: not somebody who usually says, oh, you know, take take 700 00:43:40,680 --> 00:43:43,399 Speaker 1: the risk of coming into the country to the southern border, 701 00:43:43,400 --> 00:43:45,080 Speaker 1: because maybe it'll be caught. But right now, if you 702 00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:46,520 Speaker 1: were part of an ISIS cell and you wanted to 703 00:43:46,520 --> 00:43:50,400 Speaker 1: give the United States much more, much higher likelihood of 704 00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:55,319 Speaker 1: success penetrating across the southern border than trying to get 705 00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:59,840 Speaker 1: a visa from a Muslim majority country that you know 706 00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:02,320 Speaker 1: has an ISIS sell in it or has an ISIS 707 00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:05,799 Speaker 1: franchise in it. I should say, much easier to do 708 00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:07,800 Speaker 1: that than to try to get a visa, put yourself 709 00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:11,720 Speaker 1: through the screening process, fly in and do it all legally. 710 00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:14,400 Speaker 1: All you have to do is hang out with one 711 00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:17,480 Speaker 1: of these migrant caravans in Mexico. Just fly to Mexico, 712 00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:20,520 Speaker 1: hang out with a migrant caravan there, and when you 713 00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:22,840 Speaker 1: know there's a big surrender coming and the border patrol 714 00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:25,920 Speaker 1: agents are all tied down just about a mile down 715 00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:27,680 Speaker 1: the road or miled on the fence line, make a 716 00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:30,239 Speaker 1: run for it. You're good. You're good to go. We 717 00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:33,680 Speaker 1: have no idea how money people are smuggling themselves in 718 00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:35,480 Speaker 1: this way, no idea what kind of drugs and other 719 00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:40,840 Speaker 1: things are getting into this country as a result. Democrats, 720 00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:42,160 Speaker 1: of course, just all they want to talk about his 721 00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:44,960 Speaker 1: family separation because they're desperate for the moral high ground 722 00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:49,479 Speaker 1: and they're desperate for a diversionary issue from the fact 723 00:44:49,560 --> 00:44:52,640 Speaker 1: that this. They lied to you, The Democrats and the 724 00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:55,719 Speaker 1: media have been lying to you for months saying there 725 00:44:55,800 --> 00:44:59,200 Speaker 1: is no crisis. How stupid. Do they look now, well, 726 00:45:00,200 --> 00:45:03,319 Speaker 1: how dishonest? Maybe do they look now? They knew there 727 00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:05,680 Speaker 1: was a crisis, most of them did. They just wouldn't 728 00:45:05,719 --> 00:45:08,000 Speaker 1: say it because they were trying to back up the 729 00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:10,200 Speaker 1: Democrat talking points about how we don't need a wall, 730 00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:15,120 Speaker 1: we don't need more border security. These people are liars, 731 00:45:16,960 --> 00:45:22,319 Speaker 1: top Democrats, major media outlets, liars on the issue of 732 00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:27,360 Speaker 1: the border and how bad is it. Here's what Rudolpho 733 00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:31,279 Speaker 1: said about that play eighteen. In my thirty years as 734 00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:34,239 Speaker 1: an agent, I have never witnessed the conditions we are 735 00:45:34,239 --> 00:45:37,960 Speaker 1: currently facing on the Southwest border. This is not a 736 00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:42,000 Speaker 1: manufactured crisis created by those of us who live and 737 00:45:42,120 --> 00:45:46,680 Speaker 1: work in the border area. Board Troll continues to apprehend 738 00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:50,880 Speaker 1: record numbers of people who purposely violate US immigration laws. 739 00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:54,800 Speaker 1: We are taking advantage of by gaps in our legal framework, 740 00:45:55,719 --> 00:46:00,120 Speaker 1: and that undermined the rule of law. Criminal organization is 741 00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:04,200 Speaker 1: along the border capitalize on these issues and make tremendous 742 00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:07,960 Speaker 1: profits at the expense of both migrants and the American people. 743 00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:13,160 Speaker 1: This is a disaster, and it is happening under the 744 00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:18,480 Speaker 1: Trump administration. I will say this though, at least at 745 00:46:18,560 --> 00:46:23,040 Speaker 1: least we do have a commander in chief who understands 746 00:46:23,120 --> 00:46:26,040 Speaker 1: the scope of the problem and wants it to stop. 747 00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:28,440 Speaker 1: Could you think for a moment if this situation, because 748 00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:31,359 Speaker 1: this is all about the legal framework that's in place 749 00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:33,400 Speaker 1: for asylum and how it's being exploited, and how the 750 00:46:33,440 --> 00:46:35,640 Speaker 1: media is reported on this, and how the word has 751 00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:38,440 Speaker 1: gotten out outside of our borders, while inside of our 752 00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:41,520 Speaker 1: borders you got the press running defense for the smugglers, 753 00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:44,160 Speaker 1: for the cartels and the coyotes, saying, oh, no, there's 754 00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:46,200 Speaker 1: no problem, don't look down here, don't look at the border, 755 00:46:46,320 --> 00:46:49,120 Speaker 1: nothing going on. You imagine if we had a democrat, 756 00:46:49,880 --> 00:46:51,440 Speaker 1: all you'd hear about is how we just need to 757 00:46:51,440 --> 00:46:54,680 Speaker 1: bring in more and more than we need amnesty. So 758 00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:57,279 Speaker 1: we have something of a fighting chance to get this 759 00:46:57,320 --> 00:47:00,239 Speaker 1: issue under control. But time is not on our side here. 760 00:47:01,160 --> 00:47:05,760 Speaker 1: If this continues as is, we will reach a tipping 761 00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:08,320 Speaker 1: point where it will no longer be possible to consider 762 00:47:08,360 --> 00:47:12,000 Speaker 1: the border to be anything other than open. And once 763 00:47:12,040 --> 00:47:17,040 Speaker 1: politicians of both parties decide that this problem can't be fixed, 764 00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:21,960 Speaker 1: that the population of illegals is too large to expect 765 00:47:21,960 --> 00:47:25,720 Speaker 1: to enforce US law against, they're just going to cave. 766 00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:29,400 Speaker 1: They're gonna cave I interviewed a congressman today from Long Island. 767 00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:34,400 Speaker 1: He and Steve King one amnesty, amnesty in exchange for 768 00:47:34,480 --> 00:47:38,440 Speaker 1: border security? What does border security mean? Border security is 769 00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:43,239 Speaker 1: a very malleable term. What does it mean. Does it 770 00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:47,080 Speaker 1: mean just faster processing to let more of these mass 771 00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:51,319 Speaker 1: mass migrant caravans coming in the United States? Or does 772 00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:54,760 Speaker 1: border security mean a greater capability and the legal backing 773 00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:58,839 Speaker 1: necessary to tell people you can't come in this way. 774 00:47:59,480 --> 00:48:02,360 Speaker 1: We have a legal immigration process. This is not it. 775 00:48:02,840 --> 00:48:05,600 Speaker 1: Turn around and go home, do not pass, go, do 776 00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:09,399 Speaker 1: not collect two hundred dollars. That's what border security would 777 00:48:09,400 --> 00:48:13,360 Speaker 1: really be. But we all know that Democrats are entirely 778 00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:18,200 Speaker 1: opposed to that. So what do we do? What do 779 00:48:18,280 --> 00:48:23,680 Speaker 1: we do? Background checks are critical for your business. Whatever 780 00:48:23,760 --> 00:48:27,800 Speaker 1: size company you're running, whatever HR department you're in, whatever 781 00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:30,000 Speaker 1: industry you're in, You're going to need to have background 782 00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:32,680 Speaker 1: checks done on your employees, and you might need some 783 00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:36,520 Speaker 1: additional vetting of business partners or other company matters. I 784 00:48:36,600 --> 00:48:40,560 Speaker 1: want you to try my friends at Global Verification Network. 785 00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:44,839 Speaker 1: Global Verification Network is the only dual certified veteran owned 786 00:48:44,840 --> 00:48:49,160 Speaker 1: background investigation and vetting company and their rismutigation experts will 787 00:48:49,200 --> 00:48:51,960 Speaker 1: work with you whatever size your company, from startups all 788 00:48:51,960 --> 00:48:54,279 Speaker 1: the way up to fortune one hundreds. So even if 789 00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:56,440 Speaker 1: you've got somebody that's currently doing background checks for you, 790 00:48:56,520 --> 00:48:59,440 Speaker 1: some big conglomerate out there that probably offshores it, by 791 00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:01,960 Speaker 1: the way, which Global Verification Network does not. They do 792 00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:05,400 Speaker 1: it all in the States.

You'll be happy you did. I 798 00:49:19,480 --> 00:49:22,160 Speaker 1: think Georgia has to realize that while we are enjoying 799 00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:25,560 Speaker 1: an extraordinary boom in the film industry, there's nothing that 800 00:49:25,600 --> 00:49:27,640 Speaker 1: says it has to stay here, and we have to 801 00:49:27,680 --> 00:49:29,960 Speaker 1: be a state that is not only friendly to business, 802 00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:31,960 Speaker 1: we've got to be friendly to the women who work 803 00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:34,560 Speaker 1: in these businesses. You should not have to worry about 804 00:49:34,560 --> 00:49:37,799 Speaker 1: your ability to control your bodily autonomy because of the 805 00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:41,320 Speaker 1: governor has pushed such an abominable and evil bill that 806 00:49:41,440 --> 00:49:44,319 Speaker 1: is so restrictive. It's not only bad for morality in 807 00:49:44,360 --> 00:49:49,440 Speaker 1: our humanity, it's bad for business. Ah bad for business. 808 00:49:49,480 --> 00:49:55,640 Speaker 1: Stacy Abram says, protecting babies from murder in the womb 809 00:49:56,800 --> 00:50:04,040 Speaker 1: is bad for business. Business like what Planned Parenthood conducts 810 00:50:04,040 --> 00:50:06,680 Speaker 1: when it sells baby parts, which we all know happened. 811 00:50:06,719 --> 00:50:08,800 Speaker 1: We saw the videos, but they pretend did not happen. 812 00:50:10,000 --> 00:50:14,000 Speaker 1: They use their allies in various prosecutors' offices to try 813 00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:19,040 Speaker 1: to harass the people who made those videos. Fetal Heartbeat 814 00:50:19,080 --> 00:50:22,920 Speaker 1: bill is bad for business, Stacey Abrams says. And and 815 00:50:23,080 --> 00:50:30,120 Speaker 1: even as the goal to say that it's abominable and 816 00:50:30,360 --> 00:50:34,560 Speaker 1: evil to try to protect babies in the womb. You know, 817 00:50:34,640 --> 00:50:38,480 Speaker 1: we are going to talk about reparations later on this 818 00:50:38,520 --> 00:50:42,120 Speaker 1: hour and how Democrats are embracing that as a concept. 819 00:50:42,160 --> 00:50:49,040 Speaker 1: And yes, slavery is a is a very sad, tragic, wrong, 820 00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:53,160 Speaker 1: immoral part of the American past, but we have come 821 00:50:53,200 --> 00:50:56,160 Speaker 1: to terms with it. We obviously ended the practice a 822 00:50:56,280 --> 00:51:01,560 Speaker 1: long time ago. It ended because of a brutal Civil 823 00:51:01,640 --> 00:51:04,840 Speaker 1: war in which a whole lot of Americans lost their lives, 824 00:51:06,560 --> 00:51:08,399 Speaker 1: and that's what it took to end it. So there 825 00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:10,960 Speaker 1: was a price paid in blood for the end of slavery, 826 00:51:10,960 --> 00:51:14,560 Speaker 1: as we all know. And since then we have been 827 00:51:14,600 --> 00:51:21,319 Speaker 1: a path to greater and greater racial harmony and legal equality. Abortion. 828 00:51:21,480 --> 00:51:24,080 Speaker 1: The reason I bring up reparation slavery is that abortion 829 00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:26,200 Speaker 1: will also at some point in the future. I can 830 00:51:26,239 --> 00:51:28,440 Speaker 1: assure you. I can't tell you when, but I know 831 00:51:28,480 --> 00:51:33,600 Speaker 1: it will happen. With greater scientific knowledge and understanding, abortion 832 00:51:33,680 --> 00:51:36,200 Speaker 1: becomes less and less defensible. With greater knowledge about the 833 00:51:36,239 --> 00:51:44,000 Speaker 1: abortion procedure, it becomes less scientifically and ethically defensible. And 834 00:51:44,120 --> 00:51:48,440 Speaker 1: there will come a time when the vast majority of 835 00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:53,239 Speaker 1: the American people will say, I cannot believe that the 836 00:51:53,960 --> 00:51:58,279 Speaker 1: avatars for infants operated by Planned parenthood were able to 837 00:51:58,320 --> 00:52:01,600 Speaker 1: go on for so long that day. That day will come. 838 00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:03,440 Speaker 1: I don't know if it'll be in my lifetime. I 839 00:52:03,480 --> 00:52:07,839 Speaker 1: hope it will be. But for Stacy Abrams never. If 840 00:52:07,840 --> 00:52:10,719 Speaker 1: you're a Democrat, you have to be pro abortioned all 841 00:52:10,760 --> 00:52:14,319 Speaker 1: the way, all nine months. If you waver at all, 842 00:52:14,400 --> 00:52:17,279 Speaker 1: you're an enemy of choice. What they'll call you an 843 00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:20,479 Speaker 1: enemy of choice and you will not get the money. 844 00:52:20,480 --> 00:52:23,760 Speaker 1: You will not get the funds. They won't even vote 845 00:52:23,760 --> 00:52:26,520 Speaker 1: on the Borderlive Infant Protection Act. I mean there they 846 00:52:26,640 --> 00:52:29,560 Speaker 1: are openly now. They can they can tell us as 847 00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:31,279 Speaker 1: much as they want Otherwise, but they're openly now the 848 00:52:31,320 --> 00:52:37,680 Speaker 1: party of infanticide. But for Abrams to use moral language 849 00:52:37,719 --> 00:52:41,960 Speaker 1: here like it is evil, it is abominable to try 850 00:52:41,960 --> 00:52:50,840 Speaker 1: to protect little babies is an unfortunate but perfect example 851 00:52:50,920 --> 00:52:56,760 Speaker 1: of just how degraded the left's moral sensibility has become. 852 00:52:57,880 --> 00:53:01,879 Speaker 1: That they do not understand anymore right from wrong. They 853 00:53:01,880 --> 00:53:05,920 Speaker 1: have embraced, They have embraced evil so thoroughly that they 854 00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:09,840 Speaker 1: do not know what is evil. And for her to 855 00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:13,800 Speaker 1: say it's not only bad for humanity, it's bad for business. 856 00:53:13,800 --> 00:53:18,480 Speaker 1: She's referring to these actors, including a Lissa Milano, who 857 00:53:18,760 --> 00:53:24,600 Speaker 1: is not a very a bright or introspective woman, not 858 00:53:24,680 --> 00:53:26,919 Speaker 1: somebody that anybody should listen to. And I know because 859 00:53:26,960 --> 00:53:30,680 Speaker 1: I've had to deal with her and also had to 860 00:53:30,680 --> 00:53:33,680 Speaker 1: deal with her thinking that complaining about a journalist asking 861 00:53:33,680 --> 00:53:35,760 Speaker 1: fair questions is somehow going to get me to stop 862 00:53:35,800 --> 00:53:39,160 Speaker 1: asking the fair questions or I will feel chastened afterwards. 863 00:53:39,200 --> 00:53:42,120 Speaker 1: She was lucky, She was lucky that I led her 864 00:53:42,160 --> 00:53:45,680 Speaker 1: off without completely exposing her for the intellectually bankrupt fraud 865 00:53:45,760 --> 00:53:48,200 Speaker 1: she is. But I was trying to be somewhat polite 866 00:53:48,239 --> 00:53:52,000 Speaker 1: and professional. Look as I have a self awareness one 867 00:53:52,040 --> 00:53:54,239 Speaker 1: of the biggest knocks on me. If anything, I can 868 00:53:54,280 --> 00:53:58,799 Speaker 1: be too polite. It doesn't mean I don't like to fight. 869 00:53:58,880 --> 00:54:02,120 Speaker 1: I like to fight, but I don't start the fights, 870 00:54:02,960 --> 00:54:05,799 Speaker 1: and I can be too polite in the run up 871 00:54:05,840 --> 00:54:09,399 Speaker 1: to them. But back to Abram's here, she's saying she's 872 00:54:09,400 --> 00:54:11,960 Speaker 1: talking about this being bad for business because Milano and 873 00:54:12,080 --> 00:54:15,480 Speaker 1: others have said that they will not They've tried to 874 00:54:15,600 --> 00:54:21,080 Speaker 1: financially pressure Georgia into abandoning this bill, which is a 875 00:54:21,080 --> 00:54:23,280 Speaker 1: fetal heartbeat bill, which just says that once the fetal 876 00:54:23,280 --> 00:54:27,960 Speaker 1: heartbeat is detectable, you cannot have an abortion anymore. And 877 00:54:28,480 --> 00:54:32,759 Speaker 1: this is scientifically very sound principle, isn't it. People do 878 00:54:32,800 --> 00:54:34,400 Speaker 1: not have two hearts. If you have two hearts, you 879 00:54:34,440 --> 00:54:37,160 Speaker 1: have two people. This is a different person who is 880 00:54:37,200 --> 00:54:39,719 Speaker 1: in the womb, and once the heart is beating. That 881 00:54:39,800 --> 00:54:44,480 Speaker 1: could not be more clear from a pure science perspective, 882 00:54:44,680 --> 00:54:50,520 Speaker 1: it is two human beings. But Abrams knows that she 883 00:54:50,600 --> 00:54:57,320 Speaker 1: has to be in the vanguard of the abortion extremists 884 00:54:57,360 --> 00:54:59,760 Speaker 1: if she wants any real shot at winning the presence. 885 00:55:00,120 --> 00:55:03,279 Speaker 1: It's a terrible shame, you know. I'm reaching out this 886 00:55:03,320 --> 00:55:06,000 Speaker 1: week to try to have some of the either producers 887 00:55:06,120 --> 00:55:08,400 Speaker 1: or director or actors, I don't know whoever will come 888 00:55:08,440 --> 00:55:12,080 Speaker 1: on to talk about the movie Unplanned, which I'm hoping 889 00:55:12,080 --> 00:55:14,520 Speaker 1: to see soon. I need to find the best way 890 00:55:14,560 --> 00:55:16,840 Speaker 1: for me to see it. I rarely go to movie theaters, 891 00:55:16,880 --> 00:55:18,480 Speaker 1: but I'm hoping to be able to get a copy 892 00:55:18,520 --> 00:55:23,200 Speaker 1: and download it or watch it at home. I'm pleased 893 00:55:23,200 --> 00:55:25,080 Speaker 1: to see that it's doing so well. I think it's 894 00:55:25,120 --> 00:55:27,840 Speaker 1: broken the twelve million dollar mark in terms of sales, 895 00:55:28,239 --> 00:55:31,560 Speaker 1: which for an independent film on this topic is pretty remarkable. 896 00:55:32,440 --> 00:55:34,160 Speaker 1: But we are hoping to have them on this week 897 00:55:34,200 --> 00:55:36,880 Speaker 1: because my understanding from friends of mine who've seen the 898 00:55:36,880 --> 00:55:40,640 Speaker 1: movie is that it is It is haunting, but it 899 00:55:40,760 --> 00:55:45,880 Speaker 1: is the kind of gut wrenching viewing that if we 900 00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:47,920 Speaker 1: want to confront this evil and if we want to 901 00:55:47,960 --> 00:55:51,359 Speaker 1: live in a truly moral society, in a country where 902 00:55:51,360 --> 00:55:57,160 Speaker 1: the most precious among us are protected, then that's what 903 00:55:57,200 --> 00:55:58,600 Speaker 1: we need to do. We need to watch, we need 904 00:55:58,640 --> 00:56:02,919 Speaker 1: to understand, we see the full scope of just what 905 00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:05,680 Speaker 1: has happened here, what is happening still day in and 906 00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:08,960 Speaker 1: day out across the country. Stacy Abrams I find deeply 907 00:56:09,040 --> 00:56:11,919 Speaker 1: unimpressive the media is obsessed with her just like they're 908 00:56:11,920 --> 00:56:15,680 Speaker 1: obsessed with Betto. I don't think that there's much substance 909 00:56:15,680 --> 00:56:18,160 Speaker 1: there at all, But I do know this, Like all 910 00:56:18,160 --> 00:56:20,160 Speaker 1: the rest of the far left, she is an abortion 911 00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:22,760 Speaker 1: extremist and she is in the wrong on this issue. 912 00:56:23,760 --> 00:56:28,839 Speaker 1: Congresswoman Shila Jackson Lee has proposed a bill to form 913 00:56:28,880 --> 00:56:32,920 Speaker 1: a commission to study how to do reparations? If you 914 00:56:33,040 --> 00:56:35,960 Speaker 1: elected president, would you sign that bill if it came 915 00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:39,080 Speaker 1: across your desk? When I am elected president, I will 916 00:56:39,120 --> 00:56:43,160 Speaker 1: sign it. If that bill were to pass and come 917 00:56:43,200 --> 00:56:45,640 Speaker 1: to your desk, Would you sign it? If the House 918 00:56:45,760 --> 00:56:47,759 Speaker 1: and sent had passed that bill, of course I would 919 00:56:47,760 --> 00:56:53,920 Speaker 1: sign if would you sign that bill? Yes? If you 920 00:56:54,040 --> 00:56:57,439 Speaker 1: are president of the United States, would you sign that 921 00:56:57,520 --> 00:57:01,880 Speaker 1: bill if it passed the Congress? A commission on reparations 922 00:57:02,160 --> 00:57:07,200 Speaker 1: a slavery in the United States? I would. Would you 923 00:57:07,520 --> 00:57:11,080 Speaker 1: signed the bill for reparations? Yes, I would. I already 924 00:57:11,080 --> 00:57:17,560 Speaker 1: support that bill. Listen to one major Democrat candidate there 925 00:57:17,560 --> 00:57:21,520 Speaker 1: after another in response to al Sharpton, A man whose 926 00:57:21,960 --> 00:57:24,480 Speaker 1: lack of ethics and integrity is not something I think 927 00:57:24,520 --> 00:57:26,960 Speaker 1: I need to explain to any of you. But they 928 00:57:27,000 --> 00:57:28,800 Speaker 1: still have to. They still have to show up and 929 00:57:28,880 --> 00:57:31,360 Speaker 1: kiss the ring. They have to bend the knee in 930 00:57:31,400 --> 00:57:33,800 Speaker 1: front of Sharpton. If you're going to be the Democrat candidate, 931 00:57:34,200 --> 00:57:38,560 Speaker 1: he still wields a lot of power. But they're talking 932 00:57:38,600 --> 00:57:45,960 Speaker 1: about reparations here, reparations for slavery. And this isn't You 933 00:57:46,040 --> 00:57:49,640 Speaker 1: cannot call something a fringe issue or something that is 934 00:57:49,680 --> 00:57:53,520 Speaker 1: outside of the mainstream of political discussion when you have 935 00:57:53,760 --> 00:57:56,640 Speaker 1: on a stage like the National Action Network conference Al 936 00:57:56,680 --> 00:58:04,000 Speaker 1: Sharpton's organization. So there's that and one Democrat presidential hopeful 937 00:58:04,000 --> 00:58:06,640 Speaker 1: offen another saying yes, they would sign a bill for reparations. Yes, 938 00:58:06,680 --> 00:58:10,400 Speaker 1: they believe in reparations. Oh, and Sheila Jackson Lee, he's 939 00:58:10,400 --> 00:58:13,760 Speaker 1: discussing in some specifics here what a reparations bill would 940 00:58:13,760 --> 00:58:18,680 Speaker 1: look like, play too, how exactly would reparations benefits to 941 00:58:19,160 --> 00:58:23,480 Speaker 1: slave descendants would be distributed. There's been some questions on 942 00:58:23,520 --> 00:58:26,160 Speaker 1: that the bill does not even go to that point 943 00:58:26,240 --> 00:58:30,040 Speaker 1: because we want the study to go forward, want an assessment. 944 00:58:30,280 --> 00:58:32,360 Speaker 1: I would be speculating as to how any of this 945 00:58:32,400 --> 00:58:38,160 Speaker 1: would be addressed. But one could see institutional responses to 946 00:58:39,920 --> 00:58:43,680 Speaker 1: institutions like historically by colleges, many of them formulated in 947 00:58:43,720 --> 00:58:47,600 Speaker 1: the eighteen hundreds, but again, I think the most important 948 00:58:47,640 --> 00:58:50,600 Speaker 1: point is the establishment of the commission and not answering 949 00:58:50,600 --> 00:58:54,640 Speaker 1: the question before the study and the facts have been completed. 950 00:58:56,080 --> 00:59:00,880 Speaker 1: A commission to study the facts, they are saying, A 951 00:59:00,920 --> 00:59:05,080 Speaker 1: commission to study the facts. What you know, where would 952 00:59:05,080 --> 00:59:08,920 Speaker 1: this go? What would be the purpose of this? And 953 00:59:09,000 --> 00:59:13,680 Speaker 1: this is an issue that you're seeing increasingly on the 954 00:59:13,800 --> 00:59:19,400 Speaker 1: left a lot of support for, but they're very fuzzy 955 00:59:19,520 --> 00:59:22,000 Speaker 1: on the specifics. Right, it gets very hazy all of 956 00:59:22,040 --> 00:59:26,480 Speaker 1: a sudden, what this would even me? Newt Gingrich, for example, 957 00:59:27,520 --> 00:59:30,200 Speaker 1: raise this question, and I'm wondering how the Democrats think 958 00:59:30,240 --> 00:59:32,800 Speaker 1: they'll answer a play three. I think the most revealing 959 00:59:32,840 --> 00:59:35,480 Speaker 1: thing is what's happening on this whole idea of reparations, 960 00:59:35,760 --> 00:59:38,720 Speaker 1: and I think we should take it seriously in a 961 00:59:38,840 --> 00:59:42,960 Speaker 1: very positive way of allowing the Democrats to explain exactly 962 00:59:43,000 --> 00:59:47,960 Speaker 1: who would get reparations, how would you determine how and 963 00:59:48,120 --> 00:59:51,000 Speaker 1: far back would you go? If you think about it, 964 00:59:51,720 --> 00:59:53,440 Speaker 1: you have to have somebody who is virtually out of 965 00:59:53,480 --> 00:59:57,760 Speaker 1: touch with reality to believe that in this extraordinarily complex 966 00:59:57,840 --> 01:00:02,200 Speaker 1: society which continues to this to get mass migration from 967 01:00:02,200 --> 01:00:05,480 Speaker 1: all over the world, legal migration by the way that 968 01:00:05,600 --> 01:00:08,760 Speaker 1: you can somehow reach out magically and figure out who 969 01:00:08,800 --> 01:00:12,200 Speaker 1: to give reparations to this. This is a perfect Al 970 01:00:12,360 --> 01:00:16,520 Speaker 1: Sharpton utterly phony issue. But it tells you the decay 971 01:00:16,560 --> 01:00:19,680 Speaker 1: of the Democratic Party that he now has presidential candidates 972 01:00:20,000 --> 01:00:22,920 Speaker 1: who thrilled to go see him to tell him that 973 01:00:22,920 --> 01:00:27,040 Speaker 1: they would sign a bill as crazy, utterly phony on 974 01:00:27,080 --> 01:00:30,520 Speaker 1: antellectual level, on a reality based level, sure, but politically 975 01:00:31,240 --> 01:00:37,240 Speaker 1: it's obviously potent for the Democrats. They have a belief 976 01:00:37,320 --> 01:00:39,560 Speaker 1: that this is something that they should discuss, they should 977 01:00:40,360 --> 01:00:44,960 Speaker 1: talk about, and if nothing else, it allows them to 978 01:00:45,040 --> 01:00:49,840 Speaker 1: pose as the saviors of the American soul. You know, 979 01:00:49,880 --> 01:00:55,040 Speaker 1: Democrats can give long, long and self indulgent, inspirational lectures 980 01:00:55,040 --> 01:00:59,120 Speaker 1: about confronting the past injustices of race. I mean, there's 981 01:00:59,280 --> 01:01:03,560 Speaker 1: a lot of justice that has occurred in the past 982 01:01:03,680 --> 01:01:08,120 Speaker 1: in a lot of ways. If we really plan on 983 01:01:08,240 --> 01:01:10,360 Speaker 1: doing an accounting of it, I mean, I would like 984 01:01:10,440 --> 01:01:14,320 Speaker 1: to wonder where that stops and starts. How far back 985 01:01:14,920 --> 01:01:18,520 Speaker 1: do we go? Who else might have a case to 986 01:01:18,560 --> 01:01:23,439 Speaker 1: be made for some kind of redistributive economics based upon 987 01:01:23,600 --> 01:01:27,000 Speaker 1: what was done to quote their people back in the day. 988 01:01:28,440 --> 01:01:31,000 Speaker 1: Think about how this would be in the implementation as well. 989 01:01:31,040 --> 01:01:35,439 Speaker 1: And here's just one example. If you were, let's say 990 01:01:37,800 --> 01:01:41,560 Speaker 1: the son or daughter of somebody today who's my contemporary, 991 01:01:41,720 --> 01:01:43,760 Speaker 1: and you had one black parent and one white parent, 992 01:01:44,640 --> 01:01:47,160 Speaker 1: would you would that person qualify for reparations? And I 993 01:01:47,200 --> 01:01:49,240 Speaker 1: asked this question not to be not to be silly, 994 01:01:49,600 --> 01:01:52,439 Speaker 1: because nobody has any answers yet they don't. But if 995 01:01:52,440 --> 01:01:57,680 Speaker 1: this was just a financial incentive or a financial financially 996 01:01:57,680 --> 01:01:59,720 Speaker 1: based programs, so they're going to give money to people, 997 01:02:00,200 --> 01:02:02,280 Speaker 1: do you get less money than if you know, if 998 01:02:02,320 --> 01:02:05,040 Speaker 1: you are have a black parent and a white parent, 999 01:02:05,320 --> 01:02:08,280 Speaker 1: then you would if you had two black parents, How 1000 01:02:08,520 --> 01:02:11,680 Speaker 1: would they assess how much reparations any individual would get it? 1001 01:02:11,680 --> 01:02:13,760 Speaker 1: I would say, oh, buckle, it's not about individuals. It'll 1002 01:02:13,800 --> 01:02:18,520 Speaker 1: be about institutions. Okay, well, who would make that determination? 1003 01:02:20,320 --> 01:02:22,600 Speaker 1: What we're told? And this is from I was reading 1004 01:02:22,640 --> 01:02:28,560 Speaker 1: on vox dot com today. I can feel the testosterone 1005 01:02:28,640 --> 01:02:31,040 Speaker 1: leaving my system with each passing line every time I 1006 01:02:31,040 --> 01:02:33,720 Speaker 1: go to vox dot com. But I was reading Vox, 1007 01:02:34,320 --> 01:02:37,520 Speaker 1: and you know, they're talking about how the left wants 1008 01:02:37,560 --> 01:02:44,040 Speaker 1: a one hundred to five hundred billion dollar reparations fund 1009 01:02:44,640 --> 01:02:48,960 Speaker 1: set aside. Maryanne Williamson is the self help guru and 1010 01:02:49,000 --> 01:02:51,680 Speaker 1: spiritual advisor who is pushing for this. But there are 1011 01:02:51,720 --> 01:02:53,600 Speaker 1: some on the left who are saying that, yes, that's 1012 01:02:53,600 --> 01:02:56,200 Speaker 1: what you need. Hundreds of billions of dollars. So it's 1013 01:02:56,280 --> 01:03:02,360 Speaker 1: essentially a massive slush fund would be taxpayer funded that 1014 01:03:03,000 --> 01:03:06,880 Speaker 1: the left in this country would be able to distribute 1015 01:03:07,000 --> 01:03:09,480 Speaker 1: as it sees fit, with the idea that this would 1016 01:03:09,520 --> 01:03:11,800 Speaker 1: somehow be justice. And let me just say that to 1017 01:03:11,960 --> 01:03:15,160 Speaker 1: take money from people, which is what this would be, 1018 01:03:15,200 --> 01:03:20,360 Speaker 1: taxpayer funded, to take money from individuals and to give 1019 01:03:20,400 --> 01:03:27,160 Speaker 1: it to other people is inherently a problematic business, right. 1020 01:03:27,680 --> 01:03:30,960 Speaker 1: This would involve all kinds of redistribution of wealth. Now, 1021 01:03:31,000 --> 01:03:32,480 Speaker 1: people say, buck, we already do that with all these 1022 01:03:32,520 --> 01:03:36,440 Speaker 1: welfare programs. I know, when does it stop? When is 1023 01:03:36,480 --> 01:03:42,240 Speaker 1: it enough? Government's seizure of individual assets by force in 1024 01:03:42,320 --> 01:03:45,320 Speaker 1: order to give them to other people is something that 1025 01:03:45,480 --> 01:03:51,720 Speaker 1: is always for me in excess of government authority. But 1026 01:03:51,840 --> 01:03:53,560 Speaker 1: that's where we are now. I mean, as a society, 1027 01:03:53,560 --> 01:03:55,600 Speaker 1: we've just come to accept that the income tax and 1028 01:03:55,640 --> 01:03:59,400 Speaker 1: the redistribution of the money from it to people that 1029 01:03:59,440 --> 01:04:03,400 Speaker 1: the governments either in need or just worthy of it 1030 01:04:03,440 --> 01:04:07,000 Speaker 1: is what we have to accept plunder, as Bastiat would 1031 01:04:07,000 --> 01:04:09,240 Speaker 1: have called the plunder of individuals of their labor and 1032 01:04:09,320 --> 01:04:13,800 Speaker 1: time and assets because the state sees a collective good 1033 01:04:13,800 --> 01:04:16,760 Speaker 1: that comes from this. But who knows where this would 1034 01:04:16,800 --> 01:04:23,120 Speaker 1: really go and who knows what the level of reparations 1035 01:04:23,160 --> 01:04:27,040 Speaker 1: funding would have to be. People talk about the racial 1036 01:04:27,200 --> 01:04:31,600 Speaker 1: wealth gap in this country. Would would reparations then only 1037 01:04:31,640 --> 01:04:36,360 Speaker 1: be used for African Americans? What about Africans who arrived 1038 01:04:36,360 --> 01:04:39,280 Speaker 1: in this country in the last fifty years, last thirty years? 1039 01:04:39,320 --> 01:04:41,840 Speaker 1: Would they also? Is it a skin color based issue? 1040 01:04:41,880 --> 01:04:46,240 Speaker 1: There are no real answers. Is it's an enormously complicated 1041 01:04:46,720 --> 01:04:49,520 Speaker 1: set of historical issues, and that you would create a 1042 01:04:49,560 --> 01:04:53,480 Speaker 1: government commission to try to handle this is just an 1043 01:04:53,520 --> 01:04:58,560 Speaker 1: effort really to inflame and and inflame racial resentment, to 1044 01:04:58,840 --> 01:05:04,360 Speaker 1: create greater tension among people, and to allow for a 1045 01:05:04,400 --> 01:05:08,040 Speaker 1: lot of Democrat grandstanding on the issue. Remember, the Democrats 1046 01:05:08,080 --> 01:05:10,560 Speaker 1: were the party of slavery and Jim Crow and the KKK, 1047 01:05:11,120 --> 01:05:13,360 Speaker 1: and now the Democrats want to be the ones that centive. Oh, 1048 01:05:13,440 --> 01:05:16,280 Speaker 1: we need to have a commission on these historical injustices. 1049 01:05:17,880 --> 01:05:23,040 Speaker 1: We are all in this country very aware of the history, 1050 01:05:23,560 --> 01:05:28,280 Speaker 1: the immoral history of slavery. But we also can only 1051 01:05:28,280 --> 01:05:32,360 Speaker 1: be held to accounts as individuals for our own moral actions. 1052 01:05:33,080 --> 01:05:35,880 Speaker 1: You know, there is no such thing as a collective 1053 01:05:35,920 --> 01:05:39,600 Speaker 1: guilt in this country that individuals should be held response 1054 01:05:39,680 --> 01:05:42,840 Speaker 1: before based on what their forefathers did. Whatever my great 1055 01:05:42,880 --> 01:05:46,520 Speaker 1: grandfather did, I did not do that thing, I cannot 1056 01:05:46,520 --> 01:05:49,040 Speaker 1: be held It is immoral to hold me responsible for 1057 01:05:49,120 --> 01:05:54,360 Speaker 1: the moral actions or immoral actions of my ancestors, or 1058 01:05:54,360 --> 01:05:58,160 Speaker 1: even my father, or my parents, or my family members. 1059 01:05:59,000 --> 01:06:01,640 Speaker 1: So it erode the moral order when you start to 1060 01:06:01,680 --> 01:06:05,919 Speaker 1: make distinctions on people and take from people based upon 1061 01:06:05,960 --> 01:06:09,240 Speaker 1: what you say that somebody else who does not even 1062 01:06:09,280 --> 01:06:14,880 Speaker 1: exist and does not live anymore, may have done generations ago, 1063 01:06:15,080 --> 01:06:18,480 Speaker 1: which is where this conversation will inevitably lead. But really 1064 01:06:18,480 --> 01:06:24,920 Speaker 1: it's just Democrats grandstanding, virtue signaling, and playing the identity 1065 01:06:24,960 --> 01:06:27,760 Speaker 1: politics that are the center of their party. I talk 1066 01:06:27,840 --> 01:06:30,960 Speaker 1: to kids who's sit in their classroom afraid that will 1067 01:06:31,000 --> 01:06:33,400 Speaker 1: be the next victim of gun violence. None of that 1068 01:06:33,560 --> 01:06:35,720 Speaker 1: is going to change until we get a leader who 1069 01:06:35,800 --> 01:06:37,760 Speaker 1: is willing to go big on the issues we take on, 1070 01:06:38,400 --> 01:06:41,480 Speaker 1: be bold and the solutions we offer, and do good 1071 01:06:41,640 --> 01:06:43,800 Speaker 1: in the way that we govern. I'm ready to solve 1072 01:06:43,800 --> 01:06:46,320 Speaker 1: these problems. I'm running for president of the United States. 1073 01:06:48,720 --> 01:06:52,400 Speaker 1: Are you had Eric Swowell, who's taken a break from 1074 01:06:53,440 --> 01:06:57,120 Speaker 1: all of his conspiratorial garbage over Russia collusion in Trump 1075 01:06:57,560 --> 01:07:02,560 Speaker 1: to appear on the Colbert Rapport very or whatever it's 1076 01:07:02,560 --> 01:07:06,240 Speaker 1: called now the Late Show with Colbert Who cares? Stephen Colbert, 1077 01:07:06,280 --> 01:07:09,040 Speaker 1: who is just It's just essentially an opo program against 1078 01:07:09,040 --> 01:07:11,960 Speaker 1: the Trump administration. It's not funny, it's not clever. It's 1079 01:07:11,960 --> 01:07:15,760 Speaker 1: a lot of mean spirited nonsense. But Swalwell of course 1080 01:07:15,800 --> 01:07:19,640 Speaker 1: gets to announce his long shot, to put it mildly, 1081 01:07:19,720 --> 01:07:24,080 Speaker 1: twenty twenty run on the Colbert Rapport, And even in that, 1082 01:07:24,480 --> 01:07:27,760 Speaker 1: even in that one clip, he reminds us why he 1083 01:07:27,960 --> 01:07:31,360 Speaker 1: is a deeply unserious person and should not be treated 1084 01:07:32,480 --> 01:07:36,120 Speaker 1: as anyone to listen to on issues of national policy. 1085 01:07:36,600 --> 01:07:38,120 Speaker 1: He said, I talk to kids who sit in their 1086 01:07:38,120 --> 01:07:40,160 Speaker 1: classrooms and they're afraid they'll be the next victims of 1087 01:07:40,200 --> 01:07:45,800 Speaker 1: gun violence. He should tell them, And maybe Swalwell does 1088 01:07:45,840 --> 01:07:48,440 Speaker 1: not seem to hn know this, but you know, he 1089 01:07:48,480 --> 01:07:52,240 Speaker 1: should tell them that kids are in fact safer now 1090 01:07:52,360 --> 01:07:55,000 Speaker 1: in the classroom than they were twenty years ago. That's 1091 01:07:55,000 --> 01:07:57,720 Speaker 1: just a fact. These are these just stubborn things. These 1092 01:07:57,720 --> 01:07:59,840 Speaker 1: facts that come up right, These are statistics that you 1093 01:07:59,880 --> 01:08:05,960 Speaker 1: can't really just run around and pretend don't exist. But 1094 01:08:06,160 --> 01:08:10,200 Speaker 1: Swalwell wants to play into this fear. You know, I 1095 01:08:10,520 --> 01:08:13,040 Speaker 1: don't know why it is that there's well, I do know. 1096 01:08:13,080 --> 01:08:16,600 Speaker 1: It's because emotion and the manipulation of young minds and 1097 01:08:16,640 --> 01:08:18,960 Speaker 1: the emotions that you can drum up in people. When 1098 01:08:18,960 --> 01:08:21,920 Speaker 1: you've manipulated young people to parrot certain ideas and to 1099 01:08:21,960 --> 01:08:25,360 Speaker 1: say certain things. That's very much a Democrat approach. You 1100 01:08:25,400 --> 01:08:29,040 Speaker 1: don't see Republicans do this. You don't see conservatives say 1101 01:08:29,120 --> 01:08:32,120 Speaker 1: we are arming the kids are like twelve, and they 1102 01:08:32,160 --> 01:08:34,840 Speaker 1: really think that the marginal tax ri it should go 1103 01:08:35,000 --> 01:08:37,519 Speaker 1: from thirty seven to thirty five because we're gonna have 1104 01:08:37,600 --> 01:08:41,320 Speaker 1: to he with the real boomer surgeon medicure. And I 1105 01:08:41,400 --> 01:08:43,559 Speaker 1: just you know, no, I don't care what twelve year 1106 01:08:43,560 --> 01:08:46,080 Speaker 1: olds think about national policy, all right. I don't care 1107 01:08:46,120 --> 01:08:48,360 Speaker 1: what twelve year olds think about honestly, much of anything. 1108 01:08:48,360 --> 01:08:50,439 Speaker 1: And the twelve year olds were listening, thank you for 1109 01:08:50,520 --> 01:08:52,759 Speaker 1: listening to the show, and you obviously have excellent taste, 1110 01:08:52,800 --> 01:08:54,479 Speaker 1: But you're gonna we're gonna have to wait a little 1111 01:08:54,479 --> 01:08:57,519 Speaker 1: while before we get to have you vote and you're 1112 01:08:57,560 --> 01:08:59,760 Speaker 1: a part of the national conversation. There are some there 1113 01:08:59,840 --> 01:09:02,679 Speaker 1: us young teenagers listened to the show. They've called in before, 1114 01:09:04,439 --> 01:09:06,439 Speaker 1: but they also call in because they want to learn, 1115 01:09:06,520 --> 01:09:08,120 Speaker 1: and they want to they want to share their ideas. 1116 01:09:08,120 --> 01:09:09,640 Speaker 1: But they're listening the show to learn, which is what 1117 01:09:09,720 --> 01:09:12,879 Speaker 1: teenagers should do. They should be learning and asking questions. 1118 01:09:12,880 --> 01:09:15,479 Speaker 1: They should not be lecturing, and we certainly shouldn't have 1119 01:09:15,520 --> 01:09:18,920 Speaker 1: adults who think that they should be able to lecture 1120 01:09:18,960 --> 01:09:22,880 Speaker 1: the rest of us based on what kids allegedly tell them. 1121 01:09:23,280 --> 01:09:26,639 Speaker 1: And then, of course you also have that trope from Twitter, 1122 01:09:26,720 --> 01:09:29,120 Speaker 1: which very few of you I will be familiar with, 1123 01:09:29,160 --> 01:09:31,920 Speaker 1: but journalists all live on Twitter these days. It's like 1124 01:09:31,920 --> 01:09:35,120 Speaker 1: we're in the matrix, except it's Twitter, and they'll do 1125 01:09:35,160 --> 01:09:37,439 Speaker 1: this thing where they'll say, you know, yeah, like my 1126 01:09:37,600 --> 01:09:41,000 Speaker 1: like seven year old is just like telling me that, 1127 01:09:41,080 --> 01:09:45,559 Speaker 1: you know, Donald Trump's refusal to accept like the latest 1128 01:09:46,479 --> 01:09:51,439 Speaker 1: gender normative instruction from the University of wherever. It's just 1129 01:09:51,479 --> 01:09:54,920 Speaker 1: like really upsetting and like I'm literally shaking right now. 1130 01:09:56,240 --> 01:09:58,000 Speaker 1: And then everyone says, no, your seven year old didn't 1131 01:09:58,040 --> 01:09:59,760 Speaker 1: say that, so why are you pretending that you're seven 1132 01:09:59,840 --> 01:10:02,000 Speaker 1: year did I mean this is a This is a 1133 01:10:02,000 --> 01:10:05,720 Speaker 1: pretty normal, a pretty normal response for people when they 1134 01:10:05,720 --> 01:10:07,599 Speaker 1: know they're being a lined to. But but the left 1135 01:10:07,640 --> 01:10:11,040 Speaker 1: loves to do this. Swollwell is saying that because kids 1136 01:10:11,040 --> 01:10:15,280 Speaker 1: are worried, we should change gun policy. I mean, he's 1137 01:10:15,320 --> 01:10:18,000 Speaker 1: he's running against the Second Amendment. Effectively, he's already come 1138 01:10:18,000 --> 01:10:21,719 Speaker 1: out and said that he wants to have an assault 1139 01:10:21,800 --> 01:10:28,920 Speaker 1: rifle band. He wants to essentially wants to be somebody 1140 01:10:29,080 --> 01:10:35,120 Speaker 1: who has a focus against guns. And he says, for example, 1141 01:10:35,200 --> 01:10:37,679 Speaker 1: quote I see a country in quicksand, unable to solve 1142 01:10:37,720 --> 01:10:40,519 Speaker 1: problems and threats from abroad, unable to make life better 1143 01:10:40,520 --> 01:10:44,240 Speaker 1: for people here at home. Nothing gets done. That was 1144 01:10:44,280 --> 01:10:47,880 Speaker 1: what he was saying. And he's pushing gun safety a lot, 1145 01:10:47,920 --> 01:10:50,960 Speaker 1: which I always want to say, gun safety is things 1146 01:10:51,040 --> 01:10:56,639 Speaker 1: like training your trigger finger, discipline. They're not they're never 1147 01:10:56,640 --> 01:11:00,599 Speaker 1: really talking about gun safety. They're talking about confiscation and 1148 01:11:00,920 --> 01:11:05,439 Speaker 1: the demonization of those who believe in the Second Amendment. 1149 01:11:06,520 --> 01:11:10,880 Speaker 1: Joe Biggs, for example, tweeted out, so basically, representative Swalwell 1150 01:11:11,000 --> 01:11:13,240 Speaker 1: wants a war because that's what you would get. You're 1151 01:11:13,240 --> 01:11:14,599 Speaker 1: out of your mind if you think I'll give up 1152 01:11:14,600 --> 01:11:17,440 Speaker 1: my rights and give the government all the power. Swalwell 1153 01:11:17,520 --> 01:11:20,120 Speaker 1: responded to this guy, it would be a short war, 1154 01:11:20,240 --> 01:11:22,479 Speaker 1: my friend. The government has nukes, too many of them, 1155 01:11:22,479 --> 01:11:24,559 Speaker 1: but they're legit. I'm sure if we talk we could 1156 01:11:24,600 --> 01:11:27,040 Speaker 1: find common ground to protect our families and our community. 1157 01:11:27,080 --> 01:11:30,560 Speaker 1: So Swallow is also an idiot, because guess what, Swalwell, 1158 01:11:30,680 --> 01:11:36,400 Speaker 1: we have nukes. How's the pacification of Afghanistan going? We 1159 01:11:36,520 --> 01:11:39,960 Speaker 1: just lost I believe seeing the reports conflicting on this, 1160 01:11:40,000 --> 01:11:42,840 Speaker 1: we just lost a number of our brave soldiers. I 1161 01:11:42,880 --> 01:11:45,720 Speaker 1: think at least two of them killed in Afghanistan. We 1162 01:11:45,800 --> 01:11:48,960 Speaker 1: have nukes. The Taliban doesn't. Why can't we just force 1163 01:11:49,040 --> 01:11:55,320 Speaker 1: them to do whatever we want? Right? Control is person 1164 01:11:55,360 --> 01:11:58,759 Speaker 1: to person, street to street. Nukes don't give you control 1165 01:11:58,920 --> 01:12:01,120 Speaker 1: over a people that you wish to rule. It can 1166 01:12:01,120 --> 01:12:03,880 Speaker 1: give you the right to or the ability to not 1167 01:12:03,920 --> 01:12:07,040 Speaker 1: the right to threaten and blackmail your neighbors and to 1168 01:12:07,040 --> 01:12:10,160 Speaker 1: annihilate your neighbors. But you're I mean, it's tanooke. Your 1169 01:12:10,160 --> 01:12:12,519 Speaker 1: own population as not a realistic threat if you seek 1170 01:12:12,560 --> 01:12:18,240 Speaker 1: to rule them. But if you disarm them, if they 1171 01:12:18,400 --> 01:12:23,320 Speaker 1: cannot fight back, well then you can control them entirely. 1172 01:12:23,680 --> 01:12:26,880 Speaker 1: But Swalwell doesn't doesn't understand, doesn't know this, doesn't understand this, 1173 01:12:26,960 --> 01:12:31,760 Speaker 1: and say another one of these, this clown car of 1174 01:12:31,840 --> 01:12:34,080 Speaker 1: Democrat candidates I think is nineteen now, and you don't 1175 01:12:34,080 --> 01:12:38,479 Speaker 1: even have Biden yet in the mix. Clown car that 1176 01:12:38,800 --> 01:12:40,519 Speaker 1: is just going to get bigger and bigger all the time, 1177 01:12:40,560 --> 01:12:43,599 Speaker 1: because now running for the presidency is just viewed as 1178 01:12:43,680 --> 01:12:45,479 Speaker 1: by a lot of these Democrats as as what is 1179 01:12:45,520 --> 01:12:48,360 Speaker 1: really a branding exercise. It gets them on the Tonight Show, 1180 01:12:48,400 --> 01:12:50,920 Speaker 1: gets them on TV, gets people talking about them, and 1181 01:12:50,960 --> 01:12:54,720 Speaker 1: all that stuff. Swalwell should be forced to answer for 1182 01:12:54,800 --> 01:13:00,519 Speaker 1: what he has been saying and his role in propping 1183 01:13:00,600 --> 01:13:07,559 Speaker 1: up the hoax over Russia collusion. You know, Swalwell should 1184 01:13:07,680 --> 01:13:10,759 Speaker 1: have to answer for all of that that he's running 1185 01:13:10,760 --> 01:13:12,880 Speaker 1: for president. Maybe this is just a brilliant move on 1186 01:13:12,960 --> 01:13:16,160 Speaker 1: his part to change the subject as quickly as possible. 1187 01:13:16,520 --> 01:13:19,760 Speaker 1: But remember Swawell and Adam Schiff and others, they haven't 1188 01:13:19,760 --> 01:13:22,320 Speaker 1: backed off Russia collusion yet. They're still they're still living 1189 01:13:22,360 --> 01:13:26,200 Speaker 1: in a fantasyland on this one. And fantasyland extends for 1190 01:13:26,200 --> 01:13:29,040 Speaker 1: Swalwell too. He's going to be the next president. We 1191 01:13:29,200 --> 01:13:33,280 Speaker 1: know that left wing radicals have overrun college campuses across 1192 01:13:33,320 --> 01:13:36,560 Speaker 1: the country. It's the students, it's the faculty, it's the administrators, 1193 01:13:36,600 --> 01:13:40,600 Speaker 1: and they're suppressing conservative speech. In fact, they attack conservative 1194 01:13:40,640 --> 01:13:44,040 Speaker 1: students and they try to bar conservative speakers from campus. 1195 01:13:44,439 --> 01:13:46,919 Speaker 1: We don't have to just sit back and take this anymore. 1196 01:13:47,280 --> 01:13:51,160 Speaker 1: The Leadership Institute is out there training conservative activists for 1197 01:13:51,240 --> 01:13:55,520 Speaker 1: campuses so that they can make the campus safe for conservatism. 1198 01:13:55,760 --> 01:13:58,720 Speaker 1: The Leadership Institute is the best at this and you 1199 01:13:58,760 --> 01:14:01,479 Speaker 1: can help them in their critical mission.

Over 1211 01:14:44,080 --> 01:14:47,559 Speaker 1: the years, Israel has been blessed to have many friends 1212 01:14:47,560 --> 01:14:52,080 Speaker 1: who sat in the Oval office, but Israel has never 1213 01:14:52,240 --> 01:14:57,920 Speaker 1: had a better friend than you. You show this time 1214 01:14:58,000 --> 01:15:01,479 Speaker 1: it again, you show this, and you withdrew from the 1215 01:15:01,520 --> 01:15:05,240 Speaker 1: disastrous nuclear deal with Iran. I remember in one of 1216 01:15:05,280 --> 01:15:07,679 Speaker 1: our first meetings, you said, this is a horrible deal. 1217 01:15:08,120 --> 01:15:10,559 Speaker 1: I will leave it. You said it, you did it. 1218 01:15:11,320 --> 01:15:15,400 Speaker 1: You showed it. When you restored sanctions against a genocidal 1219 01:15:15,479 --> 01:15:19,040 Speaker 1: regime that seeks to destroy the one and only Jewish state. 1220 01:15:19,400 --> 01:15:22,559 Speaker 1: You said, I will restore those sanctions. You said it, 1221 01:15:22,880 --> 01:15:26,640 Speaker 1: and you did it. You showed that when you recognize 1222 01:15:26,720 --> 01:15:30,920 Speaker 1: Jerusalem is Israel's capital and moved the American embassy there. 1223 01:15:31,000 --> 01:15:34,600 Speaker 1: You gave us a tremendous ambassador. You said it, you 1224 01:15:34,720 --> 01:15:38,719 Speaker 1: did it, and you've showed it once against Today, mister President, 1225 01:15:39,280 --> 01:15:45,080 Speaker 1: with your official proclamation recognizing Israel's sovereignty over the Golan Heights. 1226 01:15:46,520 --> 01:15:50,080 Speaker 1: Then Yahoo is quite a statesman and quite an ally 1227 01:15:50,120 --> 01:15:53,760 Speaker 1: of the United States. He is in the midst of 1228 01:15:53,800 --> 01:15:58,040 Speaker 1: a battle today for the prime ministership of the State 1229 01:15:58,080 --> 01:15:59,800 Speaker 1: of Israel's an election going on. So I want to 1230 01:15:59,800 --> 01:16:02,799 Speaker 1: bring on an expert to tell us just what's happening 1231 01:16:02,800 --> 01:16:05,000 Speaker 1: and what it means Going forward. We have our friend 1232 01:16:05,040 --> 01:16:07,160 Speaker 1: dovin Effune with us now. He is the editor in 1233 01:16:07,240 --> 01:16:12,160 Speaker 1: chief of the Alga Miner, which some describe as the 1234 01:16:12,280 --> 01:16:15,720 Speaker 1: Jewish people's answer to Al Jazeera. Great to have you all, 1235 01:16:15,760 --> 01:16:19,880 Speaker 1: my friend, always a pleasure book. So tell me what 1236 01:16:19,880 --> 01:16:21,840 Speaker 1: what's where are we right now in this in this 1237 01:16:21,880 --> 01:16:25,160 Speaker 1: election or understandings things? You're close and you know what 1238 01:16:25,439 --> 01:16:27,439 Speaker 1: can you tell us about what's happening today? In general? 1239 01:16:28,880 --> 01:16:32,400 Speaker 1: Well primus and Naho is in the midst of the 1240 01:16:32,560 --> 01:16:38,120 Speaker 1: political fight of his life. Polls have just closed ten 1241 01:16:38,200 --> 01:16:42,879 Speaker 1: pm Israel time, and the first exit polls have been released. 1242 01:16:43,320 --> 01:16:48,920 Speaker 1: There are three major Israeli TV channels that release exit polls. 1243 01:16:49,120 --> 01:16:52,599 Speaker 1: Two of them are showing a dead heat thirty six 1244 01:16:52,640 --> 01:16:57,719 Speaker 1: seats each between Naho and his political rival Benny Gantz, 1245 01:16:57,960 --> 01:17:01,400 Speaker 1: a former chief of staff of the DF together with 1246 01:17:01,680 --> 01:17:05,160 Speaker 1: a group of other generals. But they are showing that 1247 01:17:05,240 --> 01:17:08,320 Speaker 1: the right wing block, and of course in Israel you 1248 01:17:08,439 --> 01:17:11,599 Speaker 1: need a coalition of parties to form a government, comes 1249 01:17:11,640 --> 01:17:15,200 Speaker 1: out and ahead with sixty six seats versus fifty four 1250 01:17:15,760 --> 01:17:19,599 Speaker 1: for the left wing block. There is one poll which 1251 01:17:19,840 --> 01:17:22,240 Speaker 1: may be an outlier or may have got it right, 1252 01:17:22,800 --> 01:17:28,280 Speaker 1: which actually shows Naho's rival Guns about four or five 1253 01:17:28,360 --> 01:17:32,240 Speaker 1: seats ahead of net Yahoo and a dead heat sixty 1254 01:17:32,400 --> 01:17:35,519 Speaker 1: sixty each. In terms of the formation of the political 1255 01:17:35,520 --> 01:17:38,800 Speaker 1: blocks which are necessary to create the government. In the 1256 01:17:38,920 --> 01:17:40,320 Speaker 1: end of the day, we're going to have to wait 1257 01:17:40,439 --> 01:17:43,479 Speaker 1: till tomorrow morning, US time, until those balants are actually 1258 01:17:43,520 --> 01:17:46,679 Speaker 1: counted and we have a real result. In the meantime, 1259 01:17:46,800 --> 01:17:50,599 Speaker 1: both of the candidates, Naho and Guns are claiming victory. 1260 01:17:51,160 --> 01:17:54,960 Speaker 1: Naho says, I'm meeting with coalition potential coalition partners to night. 1261 01:17:55,439 --> 01:17:58,280 Speaker 1: I'm ready to get this wrapped up. Guns are saying 1262 01:17:59,320 --> 01:18:04,200 Speaker 1: it's time to move on now. From the US perspective, 1263 01:18:04,280 --> 01:18:06,280 Speaker 1: we see, we see this election playing out, and obviously, 1264 01:18:06,640 --> 01:18:10,519 Speaker 1: you know Ninjah who despite what Beto O'Rourke says about him. 1265 01:18:10,560 --> 01:18:11,720 Speaker 1: Did you hear that, By the way, do you hear 1266 01:18:11,760 --> 01:18:14,280 Speaker 1: Beto saying that Yahoo does not represent the will of 1267 01:18:14,280 --> 01:18:16,880 Speaker 1: the Israeli people. That was pretty funny, considering he seems 1268 01:18:16,880 --> 01:18:20,880 Speaker 1: to win a lot of elections. Yeah, I mean, unfortunately, 1269 01:18:20,920 --> 01:18:25,519 Speaker 1: it seems that for Democratic candidates, presidential candidates, it's sort 1270 01:18:25,520 --> 01:18:28,599 Speaker 1: of a right of passage to go after bb Um. 1271 01:18:28,760 --> 01:18:30,640 Speaker 1: It's going to get all kud if bb stays in 1272 01:18:30,680 --> 01:18:32,519 Speaker 1: office and one of them ends up winning, they'll have 1273 01:18:32,560 --> 01:18:35,280 Speaker 1: to deal with the guy. But could you call them 1274 01:18:35,320 --> 01:18:37,840 Speaker 1: a racist too? By the way, I mean, why you know, 1275 01:18:37,880 --> 01:18:41,559 Speaker 1: when people say things in politics in this country, why 1276 01:18:41,640 --> 01:18:43,479 Speaker 1: is he referring to BB as a racist? What's the 1277 01:18:43,560 --> 01:18:47,479 Speaker 1: justification for that? Well, usually what they point to is 1278 01:18:47,520 --> 01:18:51,800 Speaker 1: this nation state law, which you know was backed by 1279 01:18:51,840 --> 01:18:55,960 Speaker 1: the Yahu government, which basically says that Israel is the 1280 01:18:56,080 --> 01:18:58,600 Speaker 1: nation state of the Jewish people and only of the 1281 01:18:58,680 --> 01:19:01,200 Speaker 1: Jewish people. I think there's a lot that gets lost 1282 01:19:01,200 --> 01:19:04,680 Speaker 1: in translation though, you know, when when you know the 1283 01:19:04,760 --> 01:19:06,400 Speaker 1: law on the technic county is the law on the 1284 01:19:06,439 --> 01:19:10,720 Speaker 1: way it's being presented, make it over into the English language. Um, 1285 01:19:11,240 --> 01:19:14,240 Speaker 1: you know, I speak Hebrew and I speak English, and 1286 01:19:14,280 --> 01:19:17,040 Speaker 1: I understand exactly what's being said, and the truth that 1287 01:19:17,040 --> 01:19:20,360 Speaker 1: it's very often mischaracterized. You know, it's the law itself 1288 01:19:20,439 --> 01:19:24,000 Speaker 1: stipulates that all of the citizens have equal rights. But 1289 01:19:24,120 --> 01:19:25,640 Speaker 1: you know, in the same way as you know you 1290 01:19:25,720 --> 01:19:29,240 Speaker 1: have Muslim countries in Christian countries, Israel as the one 1291 01:19:29,640 --> 01:19:32,640 Speaker 1: Jewish state and it's the only nation state of the 1292 01:19:32,680 --> 01:19:35,320 Speaker 1: Jewish people in the world. And I think that's been 1293 01:19:35,439 --> 01:19:38,960 Speaker 1: sort of twisted by his political opponents to taught him 1294 01:19:38,960 --> 01:19:43,320 Speaker 1: with this sort of racist label, which is unfortunate and inaccurate. 1295 01:19:44,400 --> 01:19:49,280 Speaker 1: Now the national security posture of Israel, would it if 1296 01:19:50,240 --> 01:19:53,960 Speaker 1: Benny Gantz, right, who's the main challenger against Yah, if 1297 01:19:53,960 --> 01:19:55,519 Speaker 1: we were to wake up and find out that he 1298 01:19:55,880 --> 01:19:59,400 Speaker 1: squeaked out of victory here, would it really change the 1299 01:19:59,439 --> 01:20:02,439 Speaker 1: way that ISRAE interacts with other countries in the region, 1300 01:20:02,560 --> 01:20:07,760 Speaker 1: more specifically how it reacts with Palestinians in the West 1301 01:20:07,800 --> 01:20:11,400 Speaker 1: Bank and the Gaza strip, or is Israeli national security 1302 01:20:11,439 --> 01:20:16,160 Speaker 1: policy a pretty unified front at this point. The truth 1303 01:20:16,280 --> 01:20:19,439 Speaker 1: is there aren't a lot of differences in terms of 1304 01:20:19,520 --> 01:20:22,439 Speaker 1: the nuts and bolts. Having said that, there is a 1305 01:20:22,439 --> 01:20:26,080 Speaker 1: great deal that we don't know. Against Ran an anti 1306 01:20:26,200 --> 01:20:29,040 Speaker 1: BB campaign, but didn't focus a lot on what he 1307 01:20:29,120 --> 01:20:32,439 Speaker 1: might do differently, and he didn't face a great deal 1308 01:20:32,439 --> 01:20:36,880 Speaker 1: of challenge from Israeli media. That's the truth. So there's 1309 01:20:36,920 --> 01:20:40,160 Speaker 1: a lot that remains unknown and undetermined. You know, if Israel, 1310 01:20:40,439 --> 01:20:43,640 Speaker 1: if Israeli's wake up, it will be the result of 1311 01:20:43,680 --> 01:20:46,679 Speaker 1: a you know, Bbi's been here too longer in anybody 1312 01:20:46,720 --> 01:20:49,439 Speaker 1: but BB campaign, and they're going to have to sort 1313 01:20:49,439 --> 01:20:52,880 Speaker 1: of unpack who this new guy is and what tools 1314 01:20:52,920 --> 01:20:58,200 Speaker 1: he really has to address very serious, you know, international challenges. 1315 01:20:58,240 --> 01:21:02,639 Speaker 1: The national diplomacy that Naho has become a real master 1316 01:21:02,800 --> 01:21:07,160 Speaker 1: at GANS is unproven entity when it comes to dealing 1317 01:21:07,200 --> 01:21:10,559 Speaker 1: with the Russians, the Chinese, the Indians, the Africans. I mean, 1318 01:21:10,600 --> 01:21:13,479 Speaker 1: if you look at the kind of advancement that Nahu 1319 01:21:13,600 --> 01:21:17,240 Speaker 1: has made over the last decade in Israel's due to 1320 01:21:17,280 --> 01:21:22,599 Speaker 1: political standing in diplomatic relations around the world, Guants has 1321 01:21:22,640 --> 01:21:25,080 Speaker 1: big shoes to fill, very very big shoes to fill. 1322 01:21:25,560 --> 01:21:29,479 Speaker 1: So it remains to be seen whether he's going to 1323 01:21:29,600 --> 01:21:31,559 Speaker 1: rise to the challenge or not, and whether it's Rays 1324 01:21:31,560 --> 01:21:33,799 Speaker 1: are going to be disappointed or whether they're going to 1325 01:21:33,840 --> 01:21:36,720 Speaker 1: be comfortable with that choice. Having said that, I just 1326 01:21:36,760 --> 01:21:39,760 Speaker 1: want to remind everybody that that is far from the 1327 01:21:41,000 --> 01:21:44,679 Speaker 1: actual determination. At this point. We still just have exit pols, 1328 01:21:44,680 --> 01:21:47,320 Speaker 1: the exit pols a day vergent. We're gonna have to 1329 01:21:47,320 --> 01:21:49,479 Speaker 1: wait till tomorrow morning US times to see what the 1330 01:21:49,479 --> 01:21:51,800 Speaker 1: actual results are. I know you've got to get back 1331 01:21:51,800 --> 01:21:55,040 Speaker 1: to covering what those results are, Dovid. But before I 1332 01:21:55,160 --> 01:21:58,680 Speaker 1: let you go, I RGC has been designated by the 1333 01:21:58,720 --> 01:22:02,320 Speaker 1: Trump the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps has been designated by 1334 01:22:02,360 --> 01:22:05,880 Speaker 1: the Trump administration as a foreign terrorist organization. This is 1335 01:22:06,240 --> 01:22:09,040 Speaker 1: a groundbreaking designation and that they are technically part of 1336 01:22:09,040 --> 01:22:12,680 Speaker 1: the Iranian military. What do you think of this and 1337 01:22:12,760 --> 01:22:17,920 Speaker 1: how is this being greeted or being seen by Israel. Oh, 1338 01:22:17,920 --> 01:22:21,080 Speaker 1: the journeys are ecstatic and it's something that both sides 1339 01:22:21,080 --> 01:22:25,000 Speaker 1: of the political aisle, both Nitnaho and the challenger against 1340 01:22:25,040 --> 01:22:27,240 Speaker 1: are going to be very very excited about. I mean, 1341 01:22:27,280 --> 01:22:29,519 Speaker 1: at the end of the day, the IRGC is the 1342 01:22:29,600 --> 01:22:34,360 Speaker 1: engine and the controller of the Iranian economy, but also 1343 01:22:34,600 --> 01:22:40,000 Speaker 1: the engine of malign and belligerent activities of the Islamic 1344 01:22:40,000 --> 01:22:43,280 Speaker 1: Republic of Iran across the globe at the end of 1345 01:22:43,280 --> 01:22:47,680 Speaker 1: the day. Signifies another level in the ratcheting up of 1346 01:22:47,880 --> 01:22:51,800 Speaker 1: maximum pressure that the Trump administration is applying on this 1347 01:22:51,920 --> 01:22:56,439 Speaker 1: largest international state sponsor of terror. So it's about time, frankly, 1348 01:22:56,439 --> 01:22:59,240 Speaker 1: and there's still a lot more that can and should 1349 01:22:59,280 --> 01:23:02,559 Speaker 1: be done. We want I think the Israelis would like 1350 01:23:02,640 --> 01:23:06,000 Speaker 1: to see and I think those that see a Run 1351 01:23:06,120 --> 01:23:09,759 Speaker 1: as an unrepentant actor that really needs to be pushed 1352 01:23:09,760 --> 01:23:13,040 Speaker 1: harder would like to see the removal of any waivers 1353 01:23:13,040 --> 01:23:16,519 Speaker 1: in the oil sanctions, and you know, an analyst at 1354 01:23:16,520 --> 01:23:20,920 Speaker 1: the Foundation for Defensive Democracies recently said that between zero 1355 01:23:20,960 --> 01:23:23,439 Speaker 1: and ten, the pressure level on a run is about 1356 01:23:23,439 --> 01:23:26,960 Speaker 1: a six. This news designation for the ion GC might 1357 01:23:27,000 --> 01:23:30,000 Speaker 1: move it up to a seven or at seven and 1358 01:23:30,080 --> 01:23:33,320 Speaker 1: a half. Removing the oil waivers as well are going 1359 01:23:33,320 --> 01:23:34,760 Speaker 1: to help us bring it right up to the ten, 1360 01:23:35,080 --> 01:23:37,040 Speaker 1: which is where it needs to be if we expect 1361 01:23:37,640 --> 01:23:39,840 Speaker 1: any change of behavior from a run, you know, they 1362 01:23:39,880 --> 01:23:43,360 Speaker 1: absolutely have to have no other choice.

What is propaganda. It's a 1386 01:25:00,520 --> 01:25:03,559 Speaker 1: term that you hear thrown around a lot, and it 1387 01:25:03,640 --> 01:25:06,720 Speaker 1: has come to have a negative connotation. To be sure, 1388 01:25:06,840 --> 01:25:09,000 Speaker 1: right if you if you call somebody, especially if they 1389 01:25:09,040 --> 01:25:14,640 Speaker 1: work in the news business, a propagandist, you are besmirching 1390 01:25:15,160 --> 01:25:18,080 Speaker 1: their professional ethics and the work that they put out. 1391 01:25:18,080 --> 01:25:21,240 Speaker 1: You are not saying something that is meant to be positive. 1392 01:25:21,280 --> 01:25:25,240 Speaker 1: You are very clearly undermining them. But as with many words, 1393 01:25:25,240 --> 01:25:28,920 Speaker 1: it was not always the case. It started out that 1394 01:25:29,200 --> 01:25:34,519 Speaker 1: the word propaganda, which comes from the Latin to spread, right, 1395 01:25:34,600 --> 01:25:40,360 Speaker 1: that's propagare it comes from the Catholic Church. In fact, 1396 01:25:41,160 --> 01:25:45,519 Speaker 1: the Congregazzio, the propaganda fee day, the spread of the 1397 01:25:45,560 --> 01:25:50,840 Speaker 1: true faith. That's where the's that comes from an administrative 1398 01:25:50,840 --> 01:25:54,120 Speaker 1: body inside the Catholic Church. That was meant to make 1399 01:25:54,120 --> 01:25:56,599 Speaker 1: sure that the true faith was being spread. But it 1400 01:25:56,680 --> 01:26:00,120 Speaker 1: was in the First World War where you all so 1401 01:26:00,240 --> 01:26:05,200 Speaker 1: had the usage of mass produced imagery, so posters, war 1402 01:26:05,320 --> 01:26:11,320 Speaker 1: posters and oh that's right radio, that propaganda became a 1403 01:26:11,600 --> 01:26:15,880 Speaker 1: term of disparagement for information that's meant to bring about 1404 01:26:15,920 --> 01:26:18,400 Speaker 1: an outcome. It's not information that is shared just so 1405 01:26:18,520 --> 01:26:22,320 Speaker 1: you have it. It is information shared with an agenda. 1406 01:26:22,760 --> 01:26:25,040 Speaker 1: And now I think that it's much better in a 1407 01:26:25,160 --> 01:26:29,400 Speaker 1: media landscape if we all accept that all arts, to 1408 01:26:29,479 --> 01:26:33,720 Speaker 1: borrow from George Orwell and his timeless essay, all art 1409 01:26:33,840 --> 01:26:37,719 Speaker 1: is propaganda and all you know, it's meant to evoke 1410 01:26:37,800 --> 01:26:41,960 Speaker 1: a feeling, a thought, a belief, and all news coverage 1411 01:26:42,000 --> 01:26:43,800 Speaker 1: in one way or another is kind of a form 1412 01:26:43,800 --> 01:26:46,080 Speaker 1: of propaganda. But if you're going to really distill it 1413 01:26:46,120 --> 01:26:54,880 Speaker 1: down to openly nakedly politicized spread of information, there are 1414 01:26:54,880 --> 01:26:57,680 Speaker 1: sometimes when you have to say, well, wow, that is 1415 01:26:57,720 --> 01:27:00,720 Speaker 1: just going a bit too far, and we see that 1416 01:27:00,880 --> 01:27:05,120 Speaker 1: happening now in real time with many things, but with 1417 01:27:05,200 --> 01:27:10,920 Speaker 1: the news coverage of tax refunds all right, CBS News 1418 01:27:11,040 --> 01:27:14,160 Speaker 1: has this piece out today. Tax refunds so far this 1419 01:27:14,240 --> 01:27:18,280 Speaker 1: year are down by six billion from twenty eighteen, and 1420 01:27:18,520 --> 01:27:23,519 Speaker 1: a lot of coverage of this is meant to show 1421 01:27:23,560 --> 01:27:25,680 Speaker 1: that things are that this is a negative, right, that 1422 01:27:25,760 --> 01:27:28,880 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, people have less money because their refunds 1423 01:27:28,920 --> 01:27:32,559 Speaker 1: are smaller. Their refunds are smaller. You have to go 1424 01:27:32,640 --> 01:27:35,960 Speaker 1: a few paragraphs down to find out that, oh, hold 1425 01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:40,880 Speaker 1: on a second, your higher paychecks all year are the 1426 01:27:41,080 --> 01:27:46,120 Speaker 1: reason that your refund is not bigger. So this is 1427 01:27:46,720 --> 01:27:51,400 Speaker 1: like saying that you know, you have less money coming 1428 01:27:51,439 --> 01:27:54,320 Speaker 1: in at one time in one day than you did 1429 01:27:54,400 --> 01:27:56,240 Speaker 1: last year, but all the rest of the year you 1430 01:27:56,240 --> 01:27:58,519 Speaker 1: have more money coming in, which one of those things 1431 01:27:58,640 --> 01:28:03,400 Speaker 1: is a better experience. But the media knows that the 1432 01:28:03,560 --> 01:28:09,519 Speaker 1: one thing that Trump irrefutably accomplished right away first year 1433 01:28:09,520 --> 01:28:13,400 Speaker 1: in office was a massive tax cut, and that that 1434 01:28:13,479 --> 01:28:19,919 Speaker 1: tax cut is meant to spur business growth and investment 1435 01:28:19,960 --> 01:28:22,040 Speaker 1: in development and to put more money in the pockets 1436 01:28:22,040 --> 01:28:25,719 Speaker 1: of the American people. Now we can for now, although 1437 01:28:25,720 --> 01:28:27,160 Speaker 1: some of you will get maybe a little mad at 1438 01:28:27,160 --> 01:28:29,680 Speaker 1: me for this, we will put aside whether it is 1439 01:28:30,560 --> 01:28:33,120 Speaker 1: a fiscally responsible thing to do to have a tax 1440 01:28:33,120 --> 01:28:36,040 Speaker 1: cut and still run trillion dollar deficits, which is what 1441 01:28:36,080 --> 01:28:39,360 Speaker 1: we are doing. But let's just like I said, we 1442 01:28:39,439 --> 01:28:43,719 Speaker 1: put that aside temporarily, and now we look at Okay, 1443 01:28:44,439 --> 01:28:48,760 Speaker 1: why is it that people don't seem to understand that 1444 01:28:48,800 --> 01:28:54,320 Speaker 1: they have more money? All right? Only seventeen percent of people, 1445 01:28:54,400 --> 01:28:59,080 Speaker 1: according to poll that just came out today, cited by CNBC, 1446 01:29:00,320 --> 01:29:03,320 Speaker 1: and it's I'm sorry, it's an NBC Wall Street Journal poll, 1447 01:29:05,200 --> 01:29:08,960 Speaker 1: the vast majority of Americans, almost eighty percent of them, 1448 01:29:10,560 --> 01:29:14,040 Speaker 1: you know, I think that they're sorry. Seventeen percent of 1449 01:29:14,080 --> 01:29:16,160 Speaker 1: people believe their own taxes will go down. Yeah, almost 1450 01:29:16,240 --> 01:29:18,240 Speaker 1: eighty percent of them think that their taxes are going up. 1451 01:29:19,560 --> 01:29:23,439 Speaker 1: Almost eight out of ten people are wrong on this issue. 1452 01:29:24,160 --> 01:29:28,280 Speaker 1: Why is that possible? How is that possible? Republicans are 1453 01:29:28,280 --> 01:29:30,240 Speaker 1: the only group in which thirty percent are more believe 1454 01:29:30,280 --> 01:29:33,040 Speaker 1: they're getting a tax cut. I guess Republicans actually do 1455 01:29:33,240 --> 01:29:37,520 Speaker 1: math and pay attention, because if you are a taxpayer, 1456 01:29:38,280 --> 01:29:43,439 Speaker 1: you get eight out of ten Americans at least get 1457 01:29:43,479 --> 01:29:47,559 Speaker 1: a tax cut under the twenty eighteen law. So the 1458 01:29:47,600 --> 01:29:51,160 Speaker 1: lowest earning sixty percent of households receive an average cut 1459 01:29:51,640 --> 01:29:54,719 Speaker 1: of a little less than a thousand dollars. The top 1460 01:29:54,800 --> 01:29:57,960 Speaker 1: one percent of taxpayers could expect more than fifty one 1461 01:29:57,960 --> 01:30:02,559 Speaker 1: thousand dollars. In the mc walsh Journal poll, thirty three 1462 01:30:02,600 --> 01:30:04,720 Speaker 1: percent of Republicans believe they're getting a tax cut, well 1463 01:30:04,760 --> 01:30:08,639 Speaker 1: an even pun ten percent of Independence and only seven 1464 01:30:09,040 --> 01:30:14,280 Speaker 1: percent of Democrats think that they are getting a tax 1465 01:30:14,320 --> 01:30:19,280 Speaker 1: cut seven percent. Now understand, this is not an opinion thing. 1466 01:30:19,360 --> 01:30:21,200 Speaker 1: This is not well I think I'm getting one, but 1467 01:30:21,240 --> 01:30:24,680 Speaker 1: I'm not, but I am or This is facts. They 1468 01:30:24,720 --> 01:30:27,160 Speaker 1: are getting tax cuts. Eight out of ten are getting 1469 01:30:27,200 --> 01:30:29,840 Speaker 1: a tax cut. Seven percent think they're getting a tax cut. 1470 01:30:30,000 --> 01:30:34,880 Speaker 1: Why is that the case. Well, Mattie Iglesias, who is 1471 01:30:35,040 --> 01:30:38,120 Speaker 1: a journalist over at Vox, kind of let the cat 1472 01:30:38,120 --> 01:30:40,679 Speaker 1: out of the bag today. He tweeted out the following, 1473 01:30:40,680 --> 01:30:43,200 Speaker 1: He's got a lot of attention. Quote. Nobody likes to 1474 01:30:43,240 --> 01:30:46,720 Speaker 1: give themselves credit for this kind of messaging success, but 1475 01:30:46,880 --> 01:30:50,000 Speaker 1: progressive groups did a really good job of convincing people 1476 01:30:50,280 --> 01:30:53,160 Speaker 1: that Trump raised their taxes when the facts say a 1477 01:30:53,160 --> 01:30:57,240 Speaker 1: clear majority got a tax cut, so he's celebrating this openly. 1478 01:30:57,240 --> 01:31:01,639 Speaker 1: He's like, yep, progressive groups line lie to the American 1479 01:31:01,680 --> 01:31:04,280 Speaker 1: people about the taxes that they paid, lie to the 1480 01:31:04,320 --> 01:31:06,760 Speaker 1: American people about how much money they'll get in this, 1481 01:31:06,880 --> 01:31:10,280 Speaker 1: and it was very effective. Does anyone want to jump 1482 01:31:10,280 --> 01:31:12,559 Speaker 1: in here and suggest, why is it that we don't 1483 01:31:12,560 --> 01:31:15,880 Speaker 1: trust the media? Oh, that's right, because they all magnify 1484 01:31:16,640 --> 01:31:18,960 Speaker 1: the lies of these progressive groups by putting them on 1485 01:31:19,000 --> 01:31:22,559 Speaker 1: TV using their research, citing their analysis. You know, if 1486 01:31:22,560 --> 01:31:25,080 Speaker 1: you put analysts on TV who are reckless and irresponsible, 1487 01:31:25,160 --> 01:31:28,200 Speaker 1: as certainly CNN has done with Russia collusion and MSNBC 1488 01:31:28,360 --> 01:31:30,720 Speaker 1: and others, But if you put them on TV to 1489 01:31:30,760 --> 01:31:33,800 Speaker 1: say that the American people aren't actually getting a tax cut, 1490 01:31:33,840 --> 01:31:38,160 Speaker 1: you know what you are Party two a lie. You 1491 01:31:38,200 --> 01:31:42,560 Speaker 1: are engaged in the worst kind of propaganda, which is 1492 01:31:42,600 --> 01:31:46,559 Speaker 1: propaganda ment to harm people by filling their minds with lies. 1493 01:31:48,280 --> 01:31:51,360 Speaker 1: Because it's clearly a benefit to the American people to 1494 01:31:51,400 --> 01:31:53,200 Speaker 1: have more money in their pockets. I can't think of 1495 01:31:53,200 --> 01:31:56,439 Speaker 1: an American who is getting more money from this tax 1496 01:31:57,040 --> 01:32:00,040 Speaker 1: from the tax cut that Trump put in place and 1497 01:32:00,760 --> 01:32:03,920 Speaker 1: is upset about it. Some very very rich Libs will 1498 01:32:03,920 --> 01:32:06,280 Speaker 1: go on TV and say, oh, I don't even worth 1499 01:32:06,360 --> 01:32:08,920 Speaker 1: the money everyone, And then we always say, okay, write 1500 01:32:08,920 --> 01:32:11,400 Speaker 1: a bigger check. You're welcome to write as big a check. 1501 01:32:11,479 --> 01:32:13,439 Speaker 1: You can give all your money the irrest. They'll take 1502 01:32:13,479 --> 01:32:16,280 Speaker 1: it too. Treasury departments happy to take all your money 1503 01:32:16,360 --> 01:32:19,240 Speaker 1: if you want to give it to them. But I 1504 01:32:19,680 --> 01:32:24,639 Speaker 1: still think every year Republicans miss their opportunities to make 1505 01:32:24,680 --> 01:32:28,240 Speaker 1: their case about government fraud, waste and abuse, about the 1506 01:32:28,280 --> 01:32:33,400 Speaker 1: bloat of the federal bureaucracy, about the ridiculousness of the 1507 01:32:33,439 --> 01:32:37,600 Speaker 1: tax code seventy thousand plus pages, the enormity of the 1508 01:32:37,800 --> 01:32:41,040 Speaker 1: losses in time. And look, I just did my taxes 1509 01:32:41,040 --> 01:32:43,480 Speaker 1: over the weekend and it was just it was hellish. 1510 01:32:43,520 --> 01:32:45,360 Speaker 1: I'm trying to get this and that and this, you know, 1511 01:32:45,800 --> 01:32:49,000 Speaker 1: every every little ten ninety nine I have for one 1512 01:32:49,040 --> 01:32:52,880 Speaker 1: hundred dollars for some magazine I wrote an article for 1513 01:32:53,160 --> 01:32:55,559 Speaker 1: nine months ago, you know, everything I'm trying to pull together, 1514 01:32:55,600 --> 01:32:58,759 Speaker 1: and all the sales tax for internet purchases, all this stuff. 1515 01:32:59,080 --> 01:33:05,280 Speaker 1: It's just not sense, total utter nonsense. And yet we 1516 01:33:05,640 --> 01:33:07,880 Speaker 1: don't really make the case that this is not the 1517 01:33:07,880 --> 01:33:09,400 Speaker 1: way it has to be. Ted Cruise for a little 1518 01:33:09,400 --> 01:33:12,160 Speaker 1: while when he was running the primary, said that we'd 1519 01:33:12,200 --> 01:33:14,000 Speaker 1: have a tax code on that you could put on 1520 01:33:14,000 --> 01:33:17,880 Speaker 1: a postcard. What happened to that? You know, well, where 1521 01:33:17,920 --> 01:33:21,720 Speaker 1: are some of these big ideas that conservatives have been 1522 01:33:21,760 --> 01:33:23,880 Speaker 1: pushing for a while and finally got some traction the 1523 01:33:23,920 --> 01:33:27,080 Speaker 1: last few years, especially on the tax code. Our tax 1524 01:33:27,120 --> 01:33:31,559 Speaker 1: code is a monument to waste and pay to play 1525 01:33:31,720 --> 01:33:34,960 Speaker 1: and corruption and special interests. That is why our tax 1526 01:33:34,960 --> 01:33:37,360 Speaker 1: code is seventy thousand pages. There was no other reason, 1527 01:33:37,760 --> 01:33:42,160 Speaker 1: and a tremendous amount of government picking winners and losers. 1528 01:33:42,200 --> 01:33:45,640 Speaker 1: But I just wish there was greater rage about this, 1529 01:33:45,680 --> 01:33:47,640 Speaker 1: because you should be upset of the tax code. I know, 1530 01:33:47,680 --> 01:33:50,960 Speaker 1: I am. Turns it out that the Department of Justice 1531 01:33:51,320 --> 01:33:57,800 Speaker 1: is taking that whole college admissions cheating situation very very seriously, 1532 01:33:58,520 --> 01:34:03,000 Speaker 1: not just in the initial phase where they're leveling charges 1533 01:34:03,040 --> 01:34:07,320 Speaker 1: against people, but they're they're even adding charges. And this 1534 01:34:07,360 --> 01:34:09,240 Speaker 1: makes me a little sad. Now I know that that 1535 01:34:09,439 --> 01:34:12,800 Speaker 1: justice is blind, and I shouldn't be. I'm not trying 1536 01:34:12,840 --> 01:34:15,759 Speaker 1: to play favorites here, but I did used to watch 1537 01:34:15,800 --> 01:34:19,360 Speaker 1: the show Full House and when I was a kid, 1538 01:34:19,439 --> 01:34:22,880 Speaker 1: and I was roughly the age of the two young 1539 01:34:22,960 --> 01:34:25,320 Speaker 1: teenage daughters on that show when I would watch it, 1540 01:34:25,760 --> 01:34:28,120 Speaker 1: and I just thought that that was the coolest thing ever, 1541 01:34:28,560 --> 01:34:31,680 Speaker 1: you know, with Uncle Jesse and the you know, the 1542 01:34:31,800 --> 01:34:37,120 Speaker 1: dad played by Bob Saget and Dave Coolier as as 1543 01:34:37,160 --> 01:34:40,639 Speaker 1: the other uncle. Um. You know. I just remember really 1544 01:34:40,680 --> 01:34:43,639 Speaker 1: liking that show, and many a Friday night before I 1545 01:34:43,720 --> 01:34:46,840 Speaker 1: was socializing with girls and going out on weekends, I 1546 01:34:46,840 --> 01:34:50,280 Speaker 1: would stay in and watch Full House, along with a 1547 01:34:50,320 --> 01:34:52,519 Speaker 1: few other shows. I don't know how many of you, Brandon, 1548 01:34:52,560 --> 01:34:54,000 Speaker 1: did you ever watch T g IF Do you know 1549 01:34:54,000 --> 01:34:58,000 Speaker 1: I'm talking about? Yeah? TJF was great, man, I mean 1550 01:34:58,080 --> 01:35:02,240 Speaker 1: I was, Oh, I was all about I was all 1551 01:35:02,280 --> 01:35:04,840 Speaker 1: about family matters. I like Step by Step. That Dinosaurs 1552 01:35:04,840 --> 01:35:08,120 Speaker 1: show was kind of weird, but that was even in 1553 01:35:08,160 --> 01:35:11,800 Speaker 1: there for a while. But also Perfect Strangers, Belk Bartacamas. 1554 01:35:12,200 --> 01:35:14,400 Speaker 1: I remember all that stuff. But so Full House has 1555 01:35:14,400 --> 01:35:15,960 Speaker 1: a special place in my heart. Why am I talking 1556 01:35:16,000 --> 01:35:19,280 Speaker 1: about Full House? It's a rough week for Aunt Becky. 1557 01:35:19,600 --> 01:35:24,320 Speaker 1: Aunt Becky who was the very lovely, very lovely actress 1558 01:35:24,360 --> 01:35:29,240 Speaker 1: who played cool Uncle Jesse's girlfriend on the show. She 1559 01:35:29,640 --> 01:35:31,000 Speaker 1: I don't think they were married on the show, but 1560 01:35:31,000 --> 01:35:33,479 Speaker 1: they called her Aunt Becky she's in a lot of trouble. 1561 01:35:33,720 --> 01:35:37,439 Speaker 1: She's part of this whole college admission scam and her 1562 01:35:37,640 --> 01:35:42,280 Speaker 1: fashion designer husband, Massimo Giannouli, which is a great name 1563 01:35:42,320 --> 01:35:44,240 Speaker 1: for a fashion designer. Of course, I wonder his name 1564 01:35:44,280 --> 01:35:48,920 Speaker 1: is probably like, you know Phil Carbone from Philly. Hey, 1565 01:35:48,960 --> 01:35:50,960 Speaker 1: I'm Phil Carbone from Philly. And he's like, I'm gonna 1566 01:35:50,960 --> 01:35:53,240 Speaker 1: be a fashion designer. Noah, not mine them. He's a 1567 01:35:53,360 --> 01:36:00,680 Speaker 1: Massimo Giannulli, but that sells more three chemises. It's a 1568 01:36:00,680 --> 01:36:04,120 Speaker 1: fancy word for a shirt. But her fashions on her 1569 01:36:04,160 --> 01:36:07,400 Speaker 1: husband and her they've been indicted on additional charges, not 1570 01:36:07,520 --> 01:36:11,639 Speaker 1: just for the initial paying bribes to get people into school. 1571 01:36:11,640 --> 01:36:15,479 Speaker 1: So Aunt Becky aka Laurie Laughlin, who is the that's 1572 01:36:15,479 --> 01:36:17,439 Speaker 1: the real name of the actress, and she was in 1573 01:36:17,520 --> 01:36:20,960 Speaker 1: Full House, which she's best known for. They are now 1574 01:36:21,040 --> 01:36:23,840 Speaker 1: caught up in this multimillion dollar college admission scam, and 1575 01:36:23,880 --> 01:36:29,879 Speaker 1: they've added in Boston a second superseding indictment to commit 1576 01:36:30,200 --> 01:36:35,200 Speaker 1: conspiring to commit fraud and money laundering. Laughlin and Giuliani 1577 01:36:35,200 --> 01:36:38,920 Speaker 1: were charged last month with conspiracy to commit mail fraud. 1578 01:36:39,560 --> 01:36:42,719 Speaker 1: The new indictment adds a laundering charge for money laundering 1579 01:36:42,800 --> 01:36:46,919 Speaker 1: charge for all sixteen defendants. You know, these are these charges, 1580 01:36:47,400 --> 01:36:50,280 Speaker 1: the wire fraud, mail fraud, money laundering. These are kind 1581 01:36:50,320 --> 01:36:54,519 Speaker 1: of charges where you think, oh, well, how bad can 1582 01:36:54,560 --> 01:36:57,920 Speaker 1: it really be? But the answer is really bad. You 1583 01:36:57,960 --> 01:37:01,280 Speaker 1: can go to federal prison for or a number of 1584 01:37:01,360 --> 01:37:04,599 Speaker 1: years on this stuff, especially if you don't take a 1585 01:37:04,600 --> 01:37:07,760 Speaker 1: plea deal. So I think what you're seeing here is 1586 01:37:08,560 --> 01:37:11,599 Speaker 1: setting these parents up to take a plea deal. Look, 1587 01:37:11,760 --> 01:37:15,519 Speaker 1: I'm a little bit of a loan voice on this one. 1588 01:37:15,560 --> 01:37:17,960 Speaker 1: I don't think what they did is okay, But I 1589 01:37:18,000 --> 01:37:23,160 Speaker 1: also think that treating this as a major federal federal case, 1590 01:37:23,240 --> 01:37:25,280 Speaker 1: or at least some of the charges, right, I mean, lah, yeah, 1591 01:37:25,280 --> 01:37:28,120 Speaker 1: you can't. You know, money laundering. I mean, you're hiding 1592 01:37:28,160 --> 01:37:30,040 Speaker 1: the source of money and all that stuff. But bribing 1593 01:37:30,080 --> 01:37:32,120 Speaker 1: a college official should not be something that people go 1594 01:37:32,160 --> 01:37:34,040 Speaker 1: to federal prison for for a long time. It should 1595 01:37:34,040 --> 01:37:36,640 Speaker 1: be something that you maybe pay a big fine and 1596 01:37:37,320 --> 01:37:39,160 Speaker 1: you have to live with the humiliation of what you 1597 01:37:39,200 --> 01:37:41,920 Speaker 1: did and don't do anything bad again. So you should 1598 01:37:41,960 --> 01:37:43,880 Speaker 1: plead guilty to a charge. I'm not saying let these 1599 01:37:43,920 --> 01:37:45,760 Speaker 1: people off, but I mean, are they're really going to 1600 01:37:45,800 --> 01:37:47,880 Speaker 1: send Aunt Becky say this is what it's all about. 1601 01:37:47,880 --> 01:37:51,200 Speaker 1: Are they really going to send Aunt Becky to prison 1602 01:37:51,320 --> 01:37:53,599 Speaker 1: for four or five years because you wanted her daughter 1603 01:37:53,600 --> 01:37:56,519 Speaker 1: to go to USC? And I'm not putting USC down, 1604 01:37:56,920 --> 01:37:58,640 Speaker 1: but it's not a school that people usually think you're 1605 01:37:58,640 --> 01:38:00,599 Speaker 1: going to pay a half a million dollars and bribes 1606 01:38:00,640 --> 01:38:04,439 Speaker 1: to get into that. That's just a fact. This is 1607 01:38:04,520 --> 01:38:07,479 Speaker 1: one of these moments where I think the politics are 1608 01:38:07,920 --> 01:38:10,920 Speaker 1: very much influencing some of the prosecutorial decisions here. I 1609 01:38:10,960 --> 01:38:13,599 Speaker 1: think that you have a bunch of rich people who 1610 01:38:13,920 --> 01:38:17,439 Speaker 1: are going to be made an example of because this 1611 01:38:17,560 --> 01:38:19,320 Speaker 1: is an easy one. You know. It reminds me of 1612 01:38:19,320 --> 01:38:23,080 Speaker 1: how people got so spun up over the steroid baseball 1613 01:38:23,160 --> 01:38:26,080 Speaker 1: cheating scandal. There are congressional hearings about it, and it's 1614 01:38:26,080 --> 01:38:28,560 Speaker 1: not that it's okay, but is it really? Is it 1615 01:38:28,640 --> 01:38:31,720 Speaker 1: really a national crisis? Anyway? I'm gonna have to start 1616 01:38:31,760 --> 01:38:35,120 Speaker 1: wearing my free Aunt Becky T shirt because I'm a 1617 01:38:35,160 --> 01:38:37,880 Speaker 1: full House devotee. By the way, Fuller House, for those 1618 01:38:37,880 --> 01:38:39,760 Speaker 1: of you who don't know, is terrible, So don't waste 1619 01:38:39,760 --> 01:38:42,679 Speaker 1: your time. You got to stay with the original. And 1620 01:38:43,600 --> 01:38:45,120 Speaker 1: that's what I got for you. On that.

So thankful we finally have a leader that 1655 01:40:54,520 --> 01:40:56,360 Speaker 1: will call it like it ais and regards to Iran. 1656 01:40:56,720 --> 01:40:58,400 Speaker 1: I served in a Rock in two thousand and six. 1657 01:40:58,439 --> 01:41:00,800 Speaker 1: Our greatest threat in the area that we operated in 1658 01:41:00,960 --> 01:41:03,800 Speaker 1: was the EFP. I was on point or lead vehicle 1659 01:41:03,840 --> 01:41:06,639 Speaker 1: one night when we actually set off an EFP. The 1660 01:41:06,680 --> 01:41:09,840 Speaker 1: heat signature on my vehicle was located in the rear 1661 01:41:10,320 --> 01:41:12,040 Speaker 1: at the time. The bad guys were using a device 1662 01:41:12,080 --> 01:41:14,160 Speaker 1: that would pick up the heat signature on the humby 1663 01:41:14,280 --> 01:41:17,679 Speaker 1: engine block located in the front of the vehicle. Since 1664 01:41:17,720 --> 01:41:20,240 Speaker 1: my vehicle's engine was in the rear and the device 1665 01:41:20,320 --> 01:41:22,200 Speaker 1: was set up for a humby, the EFP one off 1666 01:41:22,240 --> 01:41:24,240 Speaker 1: between the rear of my vehicle on the front of 1667 01:41:24,280 --> 01:41:27,040 Speaker 1: the humby behind me. We lost too many men and 1668 01:41:27,080 --> 01:41:29,080 Speaker 1: women to this device, which even in two thousand and 1669 01:41:29,120 --> 01:41:32,760 Speaker 1: six we knew was being built by the Iranians, but 1670 01:41:32,880 --> 01:41:35,599 Speaker 1: to my knowledge, we did bother about it. Keep up 1671 01:41:35,600 --> 01:41:38,360 Speaker 1: the great work, brother Airborne all the way, Brandon, thank 1672 01:41:38,360 --> 01:41:41,600 Speaker 1: you for your service, and thank you so much for 1673 01:41:41,960 --> 01:41:44,639 Speaker 1: sharing your expertise about this one. I'm glad you made 1674 01:41:44,640 --> 01:41:47,800 Speaker 1: it back safe and sound. The EFPs it it was terrible. 1675 01:41:47,840 --> 01:41:51,559 Speaker 1: It was just the Iranians trying to bleed us in Iraq, 1676 01:41:51,920 --> 01:41:55,040 Speaker 1: and we did not extract the price from them in 1677 01:41:55,080 --> 01:41:57,400 Speaker 1: response this that we should have. We were so concerned 1678 01:41:57,680 --> 01:41:59,640 Speaker 1: with what was going on in Iraq that there was 1679 01:41:59,640 --> 01:42:02,559 Speaker 1: just no at the policy level. I don't mean the 1680 01:42:02,560 --> 01:42:04,160 Speaker 1: men and women who were fighting in theater, but at 1681 01:42:04,160 --> 01:42:07,559 Speaker 1: the policy level, there was no stomach for going after 1682 01:42:07,600 --> 01:42:10,280 Speaker 1: the Iranians. You know, people say that that Cheney at 1683 01:42:10,280 --> 01:42:13,439 Speaker 1: one point wanted to go after the suicide bomber rat 1684 01:42:13,479 --> 01:42:18,080 Speaker 1: lines inside Assyria. There was not They didn't end up 1685 01:42:18,160 --> 01:42:22,599 Speaker 1: doing that really, or at least I don't. I can't 1686 01:42:22,600 --> 01:42:25,479 Speaker 1: remember now how much of that has been reported on 1687 01:42:25,640 --> 01:42:28,400 Speaker 1: or how much of that is just in my head. 1688 01:42:29,280 --> 01:42:32,200 Speaker 1: But in the on the Iranian side, there was just 1689 01:42:32,320 --> 01:42:34,960 Speaker 1: considered the risk we're too high for going after the 1690 01:42:34,960 --> 01:42:38,400 Speaker 1: EFP rat lines on the Iranian side of the border, 1691 01:42:38,479 --> 01:42:42,439 Speaker 1: for pretty clear reasons. So it's a very is very 1692 01:42:42,479 --> 01:42:44,720 Speaker 1: frustrating because we should have we should have taken a 1693 01:42:44,800 --> 01:42:47,160 Speaker 1: much harder line on Iran for that, and they killed 1694 01:42:47,200 --> 01:42:52,400 Speaker 1: Americans actively, willfully intentionally killed Americans. There are Americans who 1695 01:42:52,479 --> 01:42:55,120 Speaker 1: did not come home or came home missing arms, missing legs, 1696 01:42:55,280 --> 01:42:57,640 Speaker 1: blinded because of what the Iranians were doing in a 1697 01:42:57,640 --> 01:43:01,599 Speaker 1: country that was not their country. And they are a terror, 1698 01:43:01,600 --> 01:43:04,759 Speaker 1: a terror sponsoring regime, and they are an enemy state. 1699 01:43:04,840 --> 01:43:07,920 Speaker 1: So we need to keep all this in mind, Steve 1700 01:43:07,920 --> 01:43:09,720 Speaker 1: writes buck. In the Air Force, they refer to a 1701 01:43:09,720 --> 01:43:14,920 Speaker 1: great pilot as being sh blank blank hot. However, they 1702 01:43:15,000 --> 01:43:18,360 Speaker 1: tamed this down to a more gentleman LEAs Sierra Hotel 1703 01:43:18,439 --> 01:43:21,240 Speaker 1: went amongst the public, it dawned on me that not 1704 01:43:21,280 --> 01:43:24,320 Speaker 1: only is your show Sierra Hotel, but that Sierra Hotel 1705 01:43:24,360 --> 01:43:26,479 Speaker 1: could also be used as a code or alternative for 1706 01:43:26,680 --> 01:43:30,400 Speaker 1: shields high. Whichever way you say at Sierra Hotel, shields 1707 01:43:30,439 --> 01:43:33,439 Speaker 1: high buck. Best regards, Steve, Well, Steve, thank you for 1708 01:43:33,439 --> 01:43:37,240 Speaker 1: the cool message man bringing me into the no And 1709 01:43:37,760 --> 01:43:41,400 Speaker 1: that's that's I'd never heard of that before. I remember 1710 01:43:41,400 --> 01:43:42,920 Speaker 1: there was there was a time when in the agency 1711 01:43:42,920 --> 01:43:45,040 Speaker 1: a lot of people referring to and I think it 1712 01:43:45,120 --> 01:43:48,880 Speaker 1: was borrowed by some of the agency personnel from special 1713 01:43:48,960 --> 01:43:51,120 Speaker 1: operators who are like, yeah, that guy's high speed. People 1714 01:43:51,120 --> 01:43:53,960 Speaker 1: would always say high speed, or maybe that was just 1715 01:43:54,120 --> 01:43:55,840 Speaker 1: in the office that I worked, and I don't know, 1716 01:43:55,920 --> 01:43:58,519 Speaker 1: but that was considered if somebody was kind of a badass, 1717 01:43:58,560 --> 01:44:02,479 Speaker 1: they were really high speed. My hair was high speed, 1718 01:44:03,000 --> 01:44:07,240 Speaker 1: but my tactical skills in the field I would not 1719 01:44:07,600 --> 01:44:11,040 Speaker 1: describe as they were functional. They were certainly not high speed. 1720 01:44:11,040 --> 01:44:14,720 Speaker 1: Along the lines of what you get from trained operators. 1721 01:44:15,160 --> 01:44:16,640 Speaker 1: I was just trying to make sure I didn't get 1722 01:44:16,720 --> 01:44:19,280 Speaker 1: in their way. That was my roles. Don't get in 1723 01:44:19,320 --> 01:44:24,000 Speaker 1: the way of the highly trained operators. Just help them 1724 01:44:24,000 --> 01:44:26,120 Speaker 1: when they need help with what you do, which is 1725 01:44:28,240 --> 01:44:33,919 Speaker 1: the analytic side of the equation, making the most delicious 1726 01:44:33,960 --> 01:44:37,000 Speaker 1: cappuccinos imaginable. But Steve, thank you so much for writing 1727 01:44:37,000 --> 01:44:40,120 Speaker 1: you man, and Shields High and Sierra Hotel to you. 1728 01:44:41,400 --> 01:44:45,120 Speaker 1: Jeremy Buck, if people like Bernie Sanders want to restore 1729 01:44:45,120 --> 01:44:47,920 Speaker 1: felon's rights to vote because they're still American citizens who 1730 01:44:47,960 --> 01:44:50,720 Speaker 1: are afforded the right to vote under the Constitution, then 1731 01:44:50,720 --> 01:44:53,799 Speaker 1: do you suppose they also support restoring their Second Amendment 1732 01:44:53,880 --> 01:44:58,479 Speaker 1: rights as well? Ding ding ding, Jeremy, my friend, you 1733 01:44:58,600 --> 01:45:03,400 Speaker 1: have latched on to yet another inconsistency with liberals. We 1734 01:45:03,400 --> 01:45:05,080 Speaker 1: could play this could be a game, you know, we 1735 01:45:05,120 --> 01:45:08,920 Speaker 1: could do this like a game show. Fine, the liberal inconsistency. 1736 01:45:09,680 --> 01:45:14,760 Speaker 1: And here we here we have the liberals once again 1737 01:45:15,080 --> 01:45:17,840 Speaker 1: pretending to stand on principle. What in reality they are 1738 01:45:17,920 --> 01:45:22,960 Speaker 1: just using a principle once that they plan to discard 1739 01:45:23,040 --> 01:45:27,520 Speaker 1: when it is no longer in their political and ideological 1740 01:45:27,600 --> 01:45:33,120 Speaker 1: interest to do so. So, my friend, you've you've smelled 1741 01:45:33,120 --> 01:45:35,240 Speaker 1: this one, and you've got it. You've got it right, 1742 01:45:35,320 --> 01:45:39,360 Speaker 1: You've got this one correct. Let's see who we have. 1743 01:45:39,479 --> 01:45:41,200 Speaker 1: Oh and the answer, of course is no, they do 1744 01:45:41,240 --> 01:45:43,120 Speaker 1: not want Sorry I skipped over that they do not 1745 01:45:43,200 --> 01:45:47,040 Speaker 1: want to restore Second Amendment rights to people, because the 1746 01:45:47,160 --> 01:45:52,120 Speaker 1: objection to gun owners or the objection rather to gun ownership, 1747 01:45:52,240 --> 01:45:56,400 Speaker 1: is increasingly an objection to gun owners and the culture 1748 01:45:56,479 --> 01:46:00,000 Speaker 1: of gun ownership in this country. It's not about reducing violence, 1749 01:46:00,000 --> 01:46:05,720 Speaker 1: it's about using guns as a proxy for broader political disputes. 1750 01:46:07,280 --> 01:46:11,880 Speaker 1: Van the main man, Hey, Buck, if a Democrat speaks 1751 01:46:11,880 --> 01:46:14,880 Speaker 1: about Trump in the forest and there's no one to 1752 01:46:14,920 --> 01:46:20,439 Speaker 1: hear him, is he still lying? Van? I will let 1753 01:46:20,479 --> 01:46:24,599 Speaker 1: you take that philosophy and figure out the answer yourself, 1754 01:46:24,640 --> 01:46:28,679 Speaker 1: my friend, Vince writes, Buck, we want game. We want 1755 01:46:28,720 --> 01:46:31,400 Speaker 1: your prediction. As Game of Thrones enters its final season, 1756 01:46:31,840 --> 01:46:35,160 Speaker 1: who will sit on the iron throne? Vince? That is 1757 01:46:35,960 --> 01:46:38,479 Speaker 1: quite a question to throw my way, my friend, And 1758 01:46:38,640 --> 01:46:43,639 Speaker 1: I will say to you that I think the person 1759 01:46:43,680 --> 01:46:45,559 Speaker 1: who is going to sit on the throne at the 1760 01:46:45,680 --> 01:46:49,720 Speaker 1: end of the whole thing is Tyrian Lanister. That's right. 1761 01:46:49,760 --> 01:46:52,599 Speaker 1: I think Tyryan Lanister becomes the king. And I think 1762 01:46:52,640 --> 01:46:55,320 Speaker 1: it's not through. I think it's going to be by default. 1763 01:46:55,880 --> 01:46:57,800 Speaker 1: I think that someone's going to get whacked at the 1764 01:46:57,880 --> 01:46:59,400 Speaker 1: very end that you think is going to be the 1765 01:46:59,479 --> 01:47:02,760 Speaker 1: king or the queen. Because everyone's thinking Danaris and John 1766 01:47:02,800 --> 01:47:05,160 Speaker 1: Snow are on the but that's just not how Game 1767 01:47:05,160 --> 01:47:07,360 Speaker 1: of Thrones rolls. They don't. They don't give you that 1768 01:47:08,040 --> 01:47:13,200 Speaker 1: satisfying hero wins thing. They give you, well, in some cases, 1769 01:47:13,320 --> 01:47:17,280 Speaker 1: stomach churning heartbreak. I'm still kind of disturbed by what 1770 01:47:17,400 --> 01:47:21,799 Speaker 1: happened when in the episode of the Viper and the Mountain. 1771 01:47:22,000 --> 01:47:25,400 Speaker 1: Oh man, that was that was brutal. I almost build 1772 01:47:25,400 --> 01:47:27,120 Speaker 1: on the show. I almost said, I can't, I can't 1773 01:47:27,120 --> 01:47:30,480 Speaker 1: handle anymore. I can't take this this kind of emotional 1774 01:47:31,080 --> 01:47:34,519 Speaker 1: battery anymore from Game of Thrones. But yeah, I think 1775 01:47:34,520 --> 01:47:36,120 Speaker 1: it'll be Terry and Lanister on the throne at the 1776 01:47:36,200 --> 01:47:37,880 Speaker 1: very end. And I think that you're going to see 1777 01:47:37,960 --> 01:47:41,480 Speaker 1: someone in the last fifteen minutes of the last episode 1778 01:47:41,560 --> 01:47:44,679 Speaker 1: get whacked by a character that you think we've forgotten 1779 01:47:44,720 --> 01:47:48,240 Speaker 1: about but comes back for one last hurrah. That's what 1780 01:47:48,320 --> 01:47:52,280 Speaker 1: I would guess. And if I had spoilers to share 1781 01:47:52,320 --> 01:47:53,759 Speaker 1: with you, that would be one thing, But I certainly 1782 01:47:54,360 --> 01:48:02,599 Speaker 1: do not. Eric rites, Holy avocados, Batman. They fact checked 1783 01:48:03,160 --> 01:48:10,120 Speaker 1: Kristen Gillibrand and her inaccurate equal pay claim. Yeah, Kirsten 1784 01:48:10,120 --> 01:48:13,000 Speaker 1: Gillibrand make stuff up all the time. She's a very 1785 01:48:13,080 --> 01:48:17,800 Speaker 1: unimpressive politician. She has no shot of becoming the nominee 1786 01:48:17,840 --> 01:48:20,519 Speaker 1: and even less of a shot of becoming president. But 1787 01:48:20,840 --> 01:48:25,439 Speaker 1: for her, this is just a national branding exercise. Diane, Oh, 1788 01:48:25,479 --> 01:48:28,719 Speaker 1: here we go, Hey Buck, new listener. I'm a podcast junkie, 1789 01:48:28,760 --> 01:48:32,280 Speaker 1: always looking for interesting and fresh perspective on politics and 1790 01:48:32,280 --> 01:48:37,240 Speaker 1: current events. I confess I'm a Shapiro, Walsh Cleaven fan. Well, 1791 01:48:37,320 --> 01:48:39,759 Speaker 1: I can confess back to you, Diane. Those are all 1792 01:48:40,160 --> 01:48:43,719 Speaker 1: very strong choices. I have a tremendous amount of respect 1793 01:48:43,720 --> 01:48:48,120 Speaker 1: for those three. I used to work with Matt Walsh. Anyway. 1794 01:48:48,280 --> 01:48:50,720 Speaker 1: I enjoy the nice balance of information or human you 1795 01:48:50,720 --> 01:48:53,439 Speaker 1: bring the mix. Just wondering about Shields High? What is 1796 01:48:53,439 --> 01:48:57,760 Speaker 1: that all about? Love the show? Well, Diane, that's a 1797 01:48:57,880 --> 01:49:00,880 Speaker 1: very valid question. And every once in a while I 1798 01:49:00,960 --> 01:49:07,280 Speaker 1: find myself explaining how we got to to Shields High. 1799 01:49:07,320 --> 01:49:11,640 Speaker 1: And essentially it started back when I used to do 1800 01:49:11,640 --> 01:49:14,559 Speaker 1: the Saturday radio show for The Blaze, and we used 1801 01:49:14,600 --> 01:49:16,680 Speaker 1: to do a lot of history, and I used to 1802 01:49:16,680 --> 01:49:19,000 Speaker 1: speak about ancient Greece from time of time. I would 1803 01:49:19,040 --> 01:49:21,600 Speaker 1: just go on these little history monologues and I was 1804 01:49:21,640 --> 01:49:26,120 Speaker 1: speaking about the military formation known as the phalanx, which 1805 01:49:26,200 --> 01:49:28,920 Speaker 1: is where you have heavily armored Greek warriors who are 1806 01:49:29,040 --> 01:49:32,320 Speaker 1: the hop Lights. That's because of the hop lawn shield 1807 01:49:32,360 --> 01:49:35,160 Speaker 1: that they carried and they had to stand shoulder to 1808 01:49:35,240 --> 01:49:37,720 Speaker 1: shoulder with their shields high in order to make the 1809 01:49:37,800 --> 01:49:41,720 Speaker 1: phlenx and effective formation. And also the Spartans had this 1810 01:49:41,840 --> 01:49:44,360 Speaker 1: saying come back with your shield or on it, meaning 1811 01:49:44,400 --> 01:49:47,680 Speaker 1: comeback in victory or come back dead. Anyway, from this 1812 01:49:47,760 --> 01:49:50,200 Speaker 1: discussion with Team Buck, I would always say that they 1813 01:49:50,200 --> 01:49:52,840 Speaker 1: were with me as though we were in an ideological 1814 01:49:53,520 --> 01:49:56,559 Speaker 1: phlenx together in the fight, shields high, and it just 1815 01:49:56,640 --> 01:49:59,760 Speaker 1: kind of became a fun rallying cry. You know. It's 1816 01:50:00,040 --> 01:50:02,040 Speaker 1: people say, what does roll Tiede mean? I don't know what. 1817 01:50:02,160 --> 01:50:05,120 Speaker 1: People like to say it shields hie is fun to 1818 01:50:05,120 --> 01:50:07,200 Speaker 1: say too. And sometimes when I'm having a real bad 1819 01:50:07,280 --> 01:50:09,479 Speaker 1: day and I want to get all self pitying and 1820 01:50:09,560 --> 01:50:12,599 Speaker 1: whiny about things, I just muttered to myself, shield tie Buck. 1821 01:50:12,680 --> 01:50:17,200 Speaker 1: Come on, you know it's it's a it's a war cry, 1822 01:50:17,479 --> 01:50:21,519 Speaker 1: show me a war face. Rah. It's like that.
