1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,400 Speaker 1: Our two Sean Hannity Show eight hundred and ninety four 2 00:00:02,480 --> 00:00:04,400 Speaker 1: one shawns on number if you want to be a 3 00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:08,920 Speaker 1: part of the program Big News last week. John Brennan, 4 00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:14,560 Speaker 1: This is an ex post by Congressman Jim Jordan, the 5 00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:19,160 Speaker 1: House Judiciary Committee Chair. John Brennan lied to Congress today. 6 00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:24,160 Speaker 1: We referred him to the Department of Justice for criminal prosecution, 7 00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:27,800 Speaker 1: and then he linked a letter that he sent to 8 00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:32,920 Speaker 1: the Attorney General, Pam Bondy. We write to refer significant 9 00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:36,640 Speaker 1: evidence that the former Director of the CIA, John Brennan, 10 00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:41,280 Speaker 1: knowingly made false statements during his transcribed interview before the 11 00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 1: Committee of the Judiciary on May eleven, twenty twenty three. 12 00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:51,000 Speaker 1: While testifying, Brennan made numerous willfully and intentionally false statements 13 00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:55,400 Speaker 1: of material fact contradicted by the record established by the 14 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:59,600 Speaker 1: House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence and the CIA. Under 15 00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:03,560 Speaker 1: eight USC. One thousand and one, A witness commits a 16 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:08,440 Speaker 1: crime if he knowingly willfully makes a materially false statement 17 00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 1: of representation with respect to any investigation or review conducted 18 00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:17,920 Speaker 1: pursuing to the authority of any Committee of Congress. And 19 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,679 Speaker 1: he goes on to explain a lot of the details. 20 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:24,959 Speaker 1: For example, let me go back in time. We'll start 21 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 1: in twenty seventeen. Now, if you recall, in twenty sixteen, 22 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 1: the dirty Russian disinformation dossier was used as the basis 23 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:38,680 Speaker 1: of the first visa application warrant. It was unverified and 24 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:43,119 Speaker 1: we all know unverify a bull and completely debunked by 25 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 1: December of that year, twenty sixteen. Here's Brennan in twenty 26 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 1: seventeen saying that the dossier wasn't used as the basis 27 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 1: for any intelligence community assessment. 28 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 2: Here's what he said in a house hearing that took place. 29 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 3: Do you know if the Bureau who ever, relied on 30 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 3: the Steel dossier any as part of any court filings, applications, petitions, pleadings. 31 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 3: I have no awareness did the CIA rely on it? 32 00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 4: No? 33 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:12,679 Speaker 5: Why not? 34 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:17,360 Speaker 6: Because we didn't. It wasn't part of the corpus of 35 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:21,640 Speaker 6: intelligence information that we had. It was not in any 36 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:24,800 Speaker 6: way used as a basis for the intel. It's community 37 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 6: assessment that was done. It was it was not. 38 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 1: Okay, let's move forward to twenty eighteen. This is a 39 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: clip of John Brennan saying he was concerned about the 40 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 1: veracity of the Steele dossier, but the FBI had an 41 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:41,360 Speaker 1: obligation to seek out the truth on it. Here's what 42 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 1: he said on Meet the Press with then hosts since departed, 43 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:48,639 Speaker 1: Chucky Todd, how. 44 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 7: Was the steel Dosia treated it? How did you treat it? 45 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 7: You said you looked at it in December. I assume 46 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 7: it's been looked at by It was obviously looked at 47 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,960 Speaker 7: by the FBI. We've now learned they've tried to confirm 48 00:02:58,040 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 7: some of it and have had some success. 49 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:01,080 Speaker 5: Not yet. 50 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,960 Speaker 7: They don't say it's they don't say it's unconfirmed. 51 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 2: But that's about it. 52 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 8: Well, there were things in that Dosier that made me 53 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 8: wonder whether or not they would they were in fact 54 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,360 Speaker 8: accurate and true, and I do think it was up 55 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 8: to the FBI to see whether or not they could 56 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 8: verify any of it. I think Jim Comi has said 57 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 8: that it was contained salacious and unverified information. 58 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:25,000 Speaker 2: Just because it was unverified didn't mean it wasn't true. 59 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 8: And if the Russians were involved in something like that 60 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 8: directed against individuals who are aspiring to the highest office 61 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 8: in this land, there was an obligational part of the 62 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 8: FBI to seek out the truth on it. 63 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 1: Then one more clip again twenty eighteen. This is Brennan 64 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 1: saying the Steele dossier didn't play any role in intelligence 65 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,040 Speaker 1: assessments to Obama or Trump. 66 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 2: Here listen to this clip. 67 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,560 Speaker 7: When did you first learn of the so called Steele 68 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 7: dosier and what Christopher Steele was doing? 69 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 8: Well, it was a not a very well kept secret 70 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 8: among press circles for several months before it came out, 71 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 8: and it was in late summer of twenty sixteen when 72 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 8: there were some individuals from the various US news outlets 73 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 8: who asked me about my familiarity with it, and I 74 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 8: had heard just snippets about it. I did not know 75 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,720 Speaker 8: what was in there. I did not see it until 76 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 8: later in that year, I think it was in December, 77 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,840 Speaker 8: but I was unaware of the providence of it as 78 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 8: well as what was in it. And it did not 79 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 8: play any role whatsoever in the intelli's community assessments that 80 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 8: was done that was presented to then President Obama and 81 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 8: then President elect Trump. 82 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:39,160 Speaker 1: If you recall, we now know, thanks to Tulsi Gabberd's 83 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 1: declassifications that in fact, that we had career senior intel 84 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 1: officials look into the whole question of any Trump Russia 85 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 1: collusion and senior career intelligence officials assessed there was none, 86 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 1: and that was presented, and according to the declassification, it 87 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:02,839 Speaker 1: was Obama himself, working with Clapper and Brennan and other people, 88 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:07,480 Speaker 1: that demanded a new intelligence assessment that ended up concluding 89 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 1: the exact opposite, and that part of that conclusion was 90 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 1: based on the dossier. Jim Jordan, House Judiciary Committee Chair, 91 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 1: True or false? 92 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:16,800 Speaker 4: No? 93 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 9: True. As I said last week, Sean, you're not supposed 94 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,040 Speaker 9: to lie, but you're definitely not supposed to lie when 95 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 9: you're under oath and you're talking to Congress. And that's 96 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:27,279 Speaker 9: exactly what it looks like mister Brendon did, because he 97 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 9: repeated those statements that you played when he was in 98 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:33,480 Speaker 9: front of us last Congress. He said the dossier played 99 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 9: no part in the intelligence community assessment, and I pushed 100 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 9: to not have it in the intelligence community assessment. The 101 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 9: only problem is, as you pointed out, is when Director 102 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,719 Speaker 9: National Intelligence Tulsey Gabbert declassified the House Intelligence Committee report 103 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 9: from a few years ago, it said just the opposite. 104 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 9: In fact, it related a story in there Sean where 105 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 9: another CI official actually confronted mister Brennan and said, this 106 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 9: dossier doesn't hold up. There's no underlying intelligence to support it, 107 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 9: shouldn't put it in the intelligence community assessment that we 108 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 9: take to President Trump and brief well, then President Electromp 109 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:08,559 Speaker 9: shouldn't do that. But Brennan response responded by saying, yeah, 110 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,919 Speaker 9: but doesn't it ring true? And I think just showing 111 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 9: his entire motive his mindset, which was to go get 112 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,480 Speaker 9: President Trump. And then that's exactly what they did. Is 113 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 9: we've talked about many times. They then went up to 114 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:24,719 Speaker 9: Trump Tower on January sixth, twenty seventeen, when it was 115 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 9: President Electromp gave him is what he thinks his defensive briefing, 116 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:31,359 Speaker 9: his intelligence briefing that you get before you become president. 117 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:34,000 Speaker 9: And in fact, what they were trying to do is 118 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:35,840 Speaker 9: set him up and create the predicate for the whole 119 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 9: Muller investigation and how they were going to try to 120 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:40,479 Speaker 9: sabotage his entire first term. 121 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,719 Speaker 1: But the reality too is is a true or false 122 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:48,480 Speaker 1: that in August of twenty sixteen that Bruce or had 123 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,720 Speaker 1: warned everybody that the dossier's political in nature and nobody 124 00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 1: should trust it. 125 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 2: Wasn't Brennan aware of it then? 126 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:57,919 Speaker 1: And number two didn't Brennan himself how to have a 127 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:02,600 Speaker 1: meeting in the White House informing Obama that Hillary Clinton's 128 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:06,160 Speaker 1: campaign was building up a narrative about Donald Trump and 129 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 1: Russia as part of a political scheme. 130 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 9: Yes, exactly right. And they had this meeting also in 131 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 9: December of sixteen, again between election day and Inauguration Day, 132 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 9: where they decided to do the new IC assessment, the 133 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 9: new Intelligence Community Assessment, the new report. And that's the 134 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 9: one that they put the dossier in. For goodness sake, 135 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 9: because they go up to Temp Tower and briefing about it. 136 00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 9: Colemy does it himself. So yeah, this all played out 137 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 9: as part of this effort. And again I think the 138 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 9: motive is clearly displayed in this the facts that Tulci 139 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 9: brought forward when she declassified this report, where you have 140 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:46,559 Speaker 9: this person saying to Brennan, we shouldn't use this dossi 141 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 9: at all. But his response is, yeah, but doesn't it 142 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 9: ring true. They wanted to believe it. They wanted to 143 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 9: believe this garbage document was true. And you're right, Schehn. 144 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 9: Remember it was the Clinton campaign, through the law firm, 145 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:01,239 Speaker 9: who then hired the public relationship. 146 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 2: The law firms Perkins Cooey. 147 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,559 Speaker 1: Perkins Cooey then funnels the money to an OP research firm, 148 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: Fusion GPS. Fusion GPS then hires Christopher Steele, former MI 149 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 1: six agent. 150 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 9: Correct exactly, a foreigner who writes down all this garbage 151 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 9: that they used in the ICA. And maybe more importantly, 152 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 9: when Trey Gowdy the first clip you played was asking 153 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 9: mister Brinnan the questions he said, did you ever rely 154 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 9: on this in the court filings? Treys? I think getting 155 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 9: at this idea. They used the doc date to help 156 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:32,680 Speaker 9: get defy the warrants, this file and president Toomp's campaign. 157 00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:33,959 Speaker 10: So this is what we put. 158 00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 1: Well, we know that first PIZE application went in and 159 00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 1: the bulk of information was before the election in October 160 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 1: of twenty sixteen, and James call me signed not only 161 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,080 Speaker 1: that one, but the two succeeding ones and there were 162 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 1: four total. 163 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 9: Yep, exactly right. So there's a pattern here. We think 164 00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 9: he lied to when he was under oath, when in 165 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:56,480 Speaker 9: an open hearing, when Trey was asking questions. We think 166 00:08:56,520 --> 00:09:00,320 Speaker 9: he also wasn't square with us when we deposed him 167 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 9: last Congress. And then, of course here's the big irony. 168 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 9: We were asking these questions last Congress. The context was 169 00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 9: we had brought mister Brennan in to talk to him 170 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 9: about another lie, which was the fifty one former Intel 171 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:14,959 Speaker 9: officials who told us in that letter before the twenty 172 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 9: twenty election that the Hunter Biden laptop was a Russian 173 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:22,440 Speaker 9: information operation, when the FBI had to stink in laptop 174 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 9: and they knew that was garbage. So it's this pattern 175 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:27,960 Speaker 9: we see from Brennan where he doesn't seem to be 176 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 9: square with us in Congress or with the American people. 177 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,080 Speaker 9: And that's why we sent the referral, and I put 178 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 9: it out last week on your show, Sean that I 179 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:37,680 Speaker 9: don't do this very often. The facts have to be there. 180 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 9: I mean, it has to be clear to me and 181 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 9: to our committee that this guy wasn't square with us, 182 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 9: that this guy was lying to us, and he was 183 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 9: under open an obligation to tell the truth. Then and 184 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:49,840 Speaker 9: only then do we send these referrals to the Justice Department. 185 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 9: But we think it's certainly worth to hear, and that's 186 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,280 Speaker 9: why we sent it. It all began in twenty sixteen 187 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 9: with the Dottier and this whole Russia collusion issue was 188 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 9: designed to help Clinton win the election. And then, of 189 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 9: course when they do the fifty one former intels and 190 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:06,200 Speaker 9: tell the country that piece of garbage lie that was 191 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 9: designed to help help Biden win the election. So and then, 192 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 9: as you say, the lawfair was the course to try 193 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,199 Speaker 9: to keep President Trump from getting back in office. So 194 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 9: it was always political. But then what happened back in 195 00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 9: sixteen between again election day and inauguration day is they said, Wow, 196 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 9: we didn't stop him. He won the race. Now let's 197 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 9: use the dossier. Now let's lose the use the Russian 198 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 9: hoax as a way to undermine President Trump. The question 199 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 9: that you ask, I think is the central question. This 200 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 9: is a call for the Justice Department. Was there a conspiracy? 201 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:39,079 Speaker 9: Can they prove there was a conspiracy to stop him 202 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,679 Speaker 9: from winning and then undermine his first term and then 203 00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,680 Speaker 9: prevent him from winning re election? Can you can you 204 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 9: just prove all that? That's the question for Attorney General 205 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 9: bond the Deputy Attorney General Blanche and the team at 206 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 9: the Justice Department. What we know is what we've referred 207 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 9: John Brennan. 208 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:58,359 Speaker 1: Well were a conservative attorney Mike Davis an informal advisor. 209 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 1: According to reports of the Attorney General, Pam Bondi is 210 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 1: claiming now that this grand jury will consider whether to 211 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:09,439 Speaker 1: bring criminal charges against top Democratic figures that he claims 212 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 1: have colluded over the last decade to impede Trump, starting 213 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:19,320 Speaker 1: with this dirty Russian disinformation dossier, and he is taking 214 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 1: it all the way through the pre bunking of the 215 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 1: very real Hunter Biden laptop. They knew it was going 216 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 1: to be dropped because they knew that Rudy Giuliani's then attorney, 217 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 1: Bob Costello, had a copy of it. They had verified 218 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 1: its authenticity. In March of twenty twenty, they were meeting 219 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:38,720 Speaker 1: weekly with big tech court companies, warning them that maybe 220 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 1: victims of a Russian disinformation campaign in twenty twenty, knowing 221 00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:45,920 Speaker 1: that the laptop was real, and then when it finally 222 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:48,560 Speaker 1: came out in the New York Post, they wouldn't tell 223 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:52,239 Speaker 1: those companies is this true or not true, ultimately resulting 224 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,800 Speaker 1: in the suppression of that information prior to an election 225 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 1: that I think would have had a great impact on it, 226 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 1: and then lawf air and weaponization from twenty twenty to 227 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four to make Trump unelectable, you know, in 228 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. 229 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:10,600 Speaker 9: Yeah, no, Look, I think I think you've described it 230 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:14,440 Speaker 9: exactly what it is. I saw Mike Davis's report from 231 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 9: what he had said. I think over the weekend, we'll 232 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 9: just have to see that this is again, this is 233 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:21,680 Speaker 9: a call for the Attorney General if they think the 234 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 9: facts are there and there are a lot of good 235 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 9: facts that you just pointed out, and the facts that 236 00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 9: we've discovered in our committee and we've begain referred to 237 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 9: refer them to the Justice Department. We'll just have to see. 238 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:34,440 Speaker 9: But I think it's a compelling case. They were certainly 239 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 9: out to get President Trump for the last nine years. 240 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:40,040 Speaker 1: All right, quick break right back more with Congressman Jim Jordan, 241 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 1: chairman of the powerful House Judiciary Committee in Congress. Will continue. 242 00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 1: We'll get to your calls on the other side today. 243 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,720 Speaker 1: Give us a call eight hundred and nine to one, 244 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:51,200 Speaker 1: Sean if you want to be a part of this 245 00:12:51,280 --> 00:13:00,720 Speaker 1: program as we continue. 246 00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:00,440 Speaker 2: Entered daining Americans, Go, didn go. 247 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 11: Sean Hannity is on it down. 248 00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 2: How do we continue now? 249 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,920 Speaker 1: Jim Jordan, Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, Let me 250 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,160 Speaker 1: ask this question, how did Camy get off the hook? 251 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:41,679 Speaker 1: I guess the statute of limitations have run out unless 252 00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:43,440 Speaker 1: there's a grand conspiracy charge. 253 00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:44,560 Speaker 2: But call mey. 254 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:47,520 Speaker 1: You know signed three of the four PISA warrants. That's 255 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,840 Speaker 1: a nine month period of time. My understanding is Christopher 256 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 1: Steele was kind of booted in December of twenty sixteen 257 00:13:55,600 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 1: because they realized that the dossier was was garbed badge 258 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:04,280 Speaker 1: and bar talk, and so he was out, but call 259 00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:08,199 Speaker 1: me kept still kept using it for two more PISO 260 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 1: applications and then a third one side by Rob Rosenstein 261 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:15,320 Speaker 1: at the time. The fourth one and are they not 262 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 1: by law supposed to go to the court and say 263 00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 1: that the information provided to them to acquire the the 264 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 1: PISA app PISO warrant, uh, that false information was given 265 00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:27,080 Speaker 1: to the court and then give the court a chance 266 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 1: to you know, rescind that. 267 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 9: Yeah, they are, they're they're supposed to sign and sign on, 268 00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:33,800 Speaker 9: sign on and say this is accurate information. The only 269 00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:35,280 Speaker 9: one who got in trouble was the guy who actually 270 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:37,880 Speaker 9: changed information. He changed the contents of an email. Is 271 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 9: Kevin's clientsmith. But he basically got a slap on the wrist. 272 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 9: Remember during the when this when we all start to 273 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:46,240 Speaker 9: figure this out, and it was you and it was 274 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 9: some of us in Congress and a handful of people 275 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:51,480 Speaker 9: started to dig into this. It took us a while 276 00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 9: to get all the facts and get get everything figured out, 277 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 9: and by the time we did, then you then you 278 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 9: you get into the Biden administration because of you know, 279 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:01,480 Speaker 9: the if you want to Intel letter and everything else 280 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:04,240 Speaker 9: and what happened in that campaign, and of course the 281 00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 9: Garland Justice Department and the Biden administration aren't going to 282 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 9: prosecute anyone. And so now here we are eight years later, 283 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 9: and we have an attorney general, we have an administration 284 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 9: who's saying we're going to hold people accountable who did 285 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 9: things wrong. Now the left says we're engaging in the 286 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 9: very law fair they engaged, and that's it's not true. 287 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:21,640 Speaker 9: We're trying to hold people accountable. So this kind of 288 00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 9: garbage doesn't happen in the future. So we will just 289 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 9: have to see. But the reason Komi wasn't held accountable 290 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 9: center is it because of the Garland ray. The Garland 291 00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 9: Justice Department. 292 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:33,480 Speaker 1: In the ray at Heugh was protected and the statute 293 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:37,480 Speaker 1: of limitations ran out unless there's a grand conspiracy charge 294 00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 1: exactly exactly. 295 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:41,120 Speaker 9: Now with Brennan, there's the statute of limitations on him 296 00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:42,080 Speaker 9: lying eighteen USC. 297 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 2: One thousand and one. 298 00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 9: Lying to Congress has not run out because he just 299 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 9: testified in front of us two years ago, so that's 300 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:51,360 Speaker 9: a five year statute of limitation. So there's certainly that charge. 301 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:54,920 Speaker 9: But will that be part of a bigger, broader conspiracy charge. 302 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 9: That's up to the Attorney General. 303 00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 1: All right, he is the chairman of the very important 304 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:03,680 Speaker 1: House Judiciary Committee. Chairman Jim Jordan is with us. We'll 305 00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:04,880 Speaker 1: stay focused. 306 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 2: And dialed in. 307 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 1: I spent too many years of my life unpeeling every 308 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 1: layer of that onion with a small ensemble cast you included. 309 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 1: Thank you, We appreciate your time.

That 351 00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:17,760 Speaker 2: is correct. 352 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:18,680 Speaker 11: I am not done. 353 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 2: I have lived my entire career a. 354 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 13: Life of service, and it's in my bones, and there 355 00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:29,760 Speaker 13: are many ways to serve. I've not decided yet what 356 00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 13: I will do in the future beyond what I am 357 00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:33,359 Speaker 13: doing right now. 358 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 1: That should scare every Democrat. I don't think she's electable 359 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:43,600 Speaker 1: my own opinion, no surprise. Gavin Newsom United Socialists Utopia 360 00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:48,240 Speaker 1: of California. He was on the All the Smoke podcasts. 361 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:51,080 Speaker 1: We heard of All the Smoke podcasts. I didn't hear 362 00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:55,919 Speaker 1: that one, but anyway, said, Republicans are putting America to 363 00:18:56,000 --> 00:19:02,200 Speaker 1: a pre nineteen sixties world that anti woke, is anti black. 364 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:03,680 Speaker 1: Listen to this. 365 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 4: They're literally putting American reverse, I mean quite literally to 366 00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 4: a pre nineteen sixties world. You got the Supreme Court 367 00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:13,639 Speaker 4: talking about getting rid of the Voting Rights Act, and 368 00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 4: that's very real. That may likely happen in just a 369 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:21,560 Speaker 4: matter of months. I mean, they're rewriting history, censory historical facts, 370 00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 4: it's a unbelievable moment. All this anti woke stuff is 371 00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:33,639 Speaker 4: just anti black period, full stop. All the crtesg DEI stuff, 372 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:36,720 Speaker 4: that's all this is. It's this great purge and it's 373 00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:39,119 Speaker 4: happening in real time. And I'm just I'm sitting here 374 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,760 Speaker 4: and I feel like, you know, luckily i'm governor, but 375 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 4: like we're not doing enough. We're not calling this out, 376 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:46,560 Speaker 4: We're not drawing a line here. 377 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:51,560 Speaker 1: And he goes on to describe raising himself and hustling 378 00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:54,440 Speaker 1: to pay bills when he had a very privileged upbringing, 379 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:58,720 Speaker 1: which is kind of laughable. He blasts trump ice raids 380 00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:02,520 Speaker 1: and says it calls it terror on the streets of America, 381 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:09,720 Speaker 1: and then he admitted the it's not exactly a secret 382 00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 1: that he himself has presidential ambitions and admits finally for 383 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:17,840 Speaker 1: the first time, here's what he said. 384 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 14: ELMREI say after the twenty twenty six midterms, you're going 385 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:22,800 Speaker 14: to give it serious thought. 386 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:24,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'd be lying. 387 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 4: Otherwise I'd just be lying, and I can't do that. 388 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 2: Governor. 389 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:31,320 Speaker 14: You have long said that if you ever run for 390 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 14: the White House, you need a compelling why a reason 391 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:38,959 Speaker 14: are you moving closer to figuring out your own why 392 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 14: and your own decision. 393 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, and he's just said to you compelling why you 394 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 4: can endure anyhow, And so I don't think. I think 395 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,320 Speaker 4: the biggest challenge for anyone who runs for any office 396 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 4: is people see right through you. If you don't have that, 397 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 4: why you're doing it for the wrong reasons. And so look, well, 398 00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 4: will that face will determine. 399 00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 14: That you certainly seem to like on the ground in 400 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 14: South Carolina? I have to say that, Senior Uplos, you 401 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 14: were having a good time. 402 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,639 Speaker 4: I happen to and thank god, I'm in the right business. 403 00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:09,879 Speaker 4: I love people, actually love people. 404 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:14,360 Speaker 2: Oh love people. That's why he's running. All right. 405 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:16,919 Speaker 1: This will be the question America will need to answer. 406 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 1: Do you want the United States to be California? Do 407 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 1: you want the highest income taxes in the country, Because 408 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:30,360 Speaker 1: that's what he's instituted, and that's what the current state 409 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:34,320 Speaker 1: of California is. Poverty rate highest in the nation, schools 410 00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:39,640 Speaker 1: mostly the worst in the entire country, highest sales taxes, 411 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:44,720 Speaker 1: highest gas taxes, more money for illegals than any other 412 00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:50,199 Speaker 1: single state, sanctuary state, and city policies galore. Does he 413 00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:53,919 Speaker 1: think that that will help him win a general election. 414 00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,640 Speaker 1: May help him in a primary, but will it help 415 00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:59,920 Speaker 1: him win a general election. We'll start getting serious about 416 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 1: this when the time matters, but right now is not 417 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:05,520 Speaker 1: the right time. All right, let's get to our busy phones. 418 00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 1: Andrew is in the great state of Tennessee. Andrew, how 419 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 1: are you glad you called Happy Monday? If there is 420 00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:12,840 Speaker 1: such a thing. 421 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 12: Hey, quick, idea for your listeners out there. Regarding the 422 00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:19,439 Speaker 12: ice trackers that the Democrats are trying to put together, 423 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 12: a really easy way to defeat that is, we need 424 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 12: to just fill it with garbage reports. So across the 425 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:29,600 Speaker 12: country the ice tracker happens, just start reporting stuff. It'll 426 00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 12: make it unusable. Another way that that could be done 427 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:37,399 Speaker 12: faster if someone out there has the skills to code 428 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:39,760 Speaker 12: it up. You know, you could have it automated and 429 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:42,600 Speaker 12: just have it filent reports all the time. 430 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:46,040 Speaker 1: Oh, I actually think that's something probably ICE should be 431 00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:48,879 Speaker 1: doing itself if they have to the fact that this 432 00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:52,480 Speaker 1: is even allowed, I mean, think of what's happening here. 433 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 2: What Democrats are supporting. 434 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:57,960 Speaker 1: They are supporting removing the element of surprise, which then 435 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 1: does what what happened in that moment? That means they 436 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:06,159 Speaker 1: they're basically putting a target on the backs and the 437 00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 1: foreheads of ICE agents and making their job more dangerous 438 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 1: and more difficult. And anybody that supports this, as far 439 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:19,320 Speaker 1: as I'm concerned, if and when something happens to these 440 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:21,960 Speaker 1: ICE agents, and I pray to God it doesn't, but 441 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:26,719 Speaker 1: they're they're exponentially, in my opinion, they are increasing the 442 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:30,440 Speaker 1: odds that somebody is going to get either seriously hurt 443 00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:34,879 Speaker 1: or killed. And this is a very dangerous practice. And 444 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,200 Speaker 1: if that's not aiding and a betting law breaking, I 445 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 1: don't know what is. And they're institutionalizing it. Yeah, you know, 446 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,080 Speaker 1: so we'll see what happens. Andrew, good call, appreciate it. 447 00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:48,960 Speaker 1: Let's go to Wisconsin. Mike next on the Sean Hannity Show. 448 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:52,640 Speaker 5: What's up, Mike, Hey, Shah, pleasure to get to talk 449 00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:55,240 Speaker 5: to you today. I've got a question. I wish I 450 00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 5: could have gotten it to you before Jim Jordan got away. 451 00:23:58,240 --> 00:23:59,960 Speaker 10: But what's up. 452 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,199 Speaker 5: I've got a complain. Both Republicans and the Democrats have 453 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:07,960 Speaker 5: blown it with this shutdown because they have not passed 454 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 5: a budget. If they would have passed the budget, we 455 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 5: would be in the twenty seventh day of our new 456 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:17,440 Speaker 5: fiscal year. But they have not passed the budget since 457 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 5: one budget since nineteen sixty seven. That was in nineteen 458 00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:24,720 Speaker 5: ninety six under Bill Clinton, and they blew that one 459 00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:26,919 Speaker 5: up by one hundred and two billion dollars. 460 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 1: Okay, Explain to me how again, unless you nuke the filibuster, 461 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:36,879 Speaker 1: Explain to me how Republicans they do have a majority, 462 00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 1: but they don't have that magic number sixty. How do 463 00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 1: Republicans get to that number. They would need democratic they 464 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:47,359 Speaker 1: would need democratic support. They're not going to get it 465 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:49,960 Speaker 1: in this part hyper partisan environment we live in. 466 00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:51,439 Speaker 2: So I agree with you. 467 00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:56,120 Speaker 1: I'd prefer to return to regular order, but it's under 468 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 1: the current rules it's impossible. 469 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:01,879 Speaker 5: The budgeting process should where if they don't come up 470 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:05,640 Speaker 5: with a budget as they are required constitutionally required to do, 471 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 5: they stay in Congress until they get a budget done. 472 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:14,200 Speaker 1: Okay, but you could stay there till the cows come home. 473 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,680 Speaker 1: Do you really think that, under Chucky Schumer and these 474 00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 1: radical Democrats, that the Senate is going to ultimately approve 475 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:22,960 Speaker 1: any budget Republicans put forward. 476 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:23,399 Speaker 2: I doubt it. 477 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, Well, I'm picking on Congress as a holes for 478 00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:27,960 Speaker 5: the last sixty years. 479 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 1: Okay, I'm granted the system's atrocious. Granted they should they 480 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:36,719 Speaker 1: should return to regular order. Granted they should be passing 481 00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:40,640 Speaker 1: their budgets on time, and they're not. And the systems 482 00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:43,400 Speaker 1: designed that they can't get it done, especially in the. 483 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:45,960 Speaker 2: Environment we're living in. I wish I want the same 484 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:46,439 Speaker 2: thing you do. 485 00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, I wish we could get the media. I think 486 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 5: yourself and everybody else in the media needs to hold 487 00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:54,760 Speaker 5: them accountable and put their feet to the fire about. 488 00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,320 Speaker 1: There's nothing I can do or say that's going to 489 00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:00,080 Speaker 1: convince a single Democrat besides John. 490 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,359 Speaker 2: Betterman to do the right thing correct. 491 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:05,840 Speaker 1: Nothing, There's no, there's no there's no rational discussion with 492 00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:09,119 Speaker 1: these people. They've lost their their minds, yes they have. 493 00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 5: But if all the voters, if we put the subject 494 00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 5: out there enough where both sides get a hold of it, 495 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:19,159 Speaker 5: where Democrats start holding their own leaders accountable, then maybe 496 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:20,080 Speaker 5: something will get done. 497 00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:22,359 Speaker 1: Well, then why wouldn't they go along with a clean 498 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:25,840 Speaker 1: cr which Chuck Schumer has supported his entire you know, 499 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 1: political career, but now was giving into the radical left 500 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:29,639 Speaker 1: in his party. 501 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:30,400 Speaker 4: Yeah. 502 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 5: Again, he's trying to blame it on the Republicans, and 503 00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:35,399 Speaker 5: the Republicans are pointing their fingers chuck as they should be. 504 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:40,240 Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean, look, I get it now. Look 505 00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:42,280 Speaker 1: we have a lot of news on this, and I 506 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:44,480 Speaker 1: went through it earlier, and I can just tell you 507 00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:47,359 Speaker 1: the Schumer shut down. You know, I don't see there's 508 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:49,000 Speaker 1: going to be an end in sight, and I don't. 509 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:52,680 Speaker 1: I'll tell you why. For a lot of different reasons. 510 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 1: Democrats have said that it's there. They know, they know 511 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 1: it's going to impact and hurt poor people, but they're 512 00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:00,680 Speaker 1: doing it anyway because they hate Trump and they don't 513 00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:04,159 Speaker 1: want to give up their quote leverage. And the Democratic 514 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:07,800 Speaker 1: Party is in this doom, a spiral and loop if 515 00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 1: you will, and they're on the losing side. 516 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:11,439 Speaker 2: You know. 517 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:15,800 Speaker 1: Even for example, their argument about healthcare, it's based on lies. 518 00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:19,119 Speaker 1: If you strip away the lies about Obamacare subsidies that 519 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:22,240 Speaker 1: are going to expire this year, Democrats' main excuse for 520 00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:25,120 Speaker 1: shutting down the government.

If you have the subsidies that only amounts 525 00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:49,399 Speaker 1: for four percent of that money. That's it, and Democrats 526 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:52,359 Speaker 1: are lying when they say that. But Democrats, you know, 527 00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 1: they're now demanding the subsidy.
