1 00:00:01,400 --> 00:00:06,920 Speaker 1: If you voted for Donald Trump, just know that you 2 00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:11,320 Speaker 1: are now going to be targeted by the FBI as 3 00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:15,080 Speaker 1: the twenty twenty four election nears. 4 00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:16,120 Speaker 2: That's right. 5 00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:20,720 Speaker 1: Newsweek has broken the story that the federal government believes 6 00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:25,720 Speaker 1: that the threat of violence and major civil disturbances around 7 00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:29,520 Speaker 1: the twenty twenty for US presidential election is so great 8 00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:34,839 Speaker 1: that it has quietly created a new category of extremists 9 00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:36,320 Speaker 1: that it seeks to. 10 00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:41,159 Speaker 2: Quote, track and counter. How are you? How do you 11 00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:46,040 Speaker 2: get on this list? If you voted for Donald J. Trump. 12 00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:50,400 Speaker 1: That's right, Donald Trump and his quote army of MAGA 13 00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:53,920 Speaker 1: followers are now going to be tracked by the FBI 14 00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 1: from now through the twenty twenty four US presidential election cycle. 15 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 1: The challenge, Newsweek reports, for the FBI, the primary federal 16 00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:09,360 Speaker 1: agency charged with law enforcement, is to pursue and prevent 17 00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 1: what it calls domestic terrorism without direct reference to political 18 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 1: parties or affiliations. So you can't say, hey, we're gonna 19 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:22,760 Speaker 1: monitor Republicans, right, So what can you say? You can 20 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:28,480 Speaker 1: say you're investigating and going after Trump supporters. Yes, even 21 00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 1: though the vast majority of its current anti government investigations, 22 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:36,959 Speaker 1: we also now know anti government investigations are of quote 23 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 1: Trump supporters. That according to classified data that was obtained 24 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 1: by Newsweek. So this is classified information that was given 25 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:48,320 Speaker 1: to Newsweek, and it says, all right, look, we can't 26 00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 1: categorize the Republican Party as domestic terrorists. But what we 27 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 1: can do is we can say the vast majority of 28 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 1: Trump supporters are quote anti government, and the majority of 29 00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 1: our current anti government investigations are of Trump supporters. That 30 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 1: is their words, according to classified data. 31 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 2: Quote. 32 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 1: The FBI is in an almost impossible position, says a 33 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:18,639 Speaker 1: current FBI official who requested aminity to discuss highly sensitive 34 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 1: internal matters. The official said that the FBI is intent 35 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 1: on stopping domestic terrorism and any repeat of the January sixth, 36 00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 1: twenty twenty one attack on the Capitol, but the bureau 37 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 1: must also preserve the constitutional rights of all Americans to 38 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 1: quote campaign speak freely and promote protest the government. 39 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 2: They now say, how are they going to get around 40 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 2: all that? 41 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:47,680 Speaker 1: By focusing on former President Trump and his MAGA make 42 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 1: America Great against supporters, The official says, the bureau runs 43 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:56,639 Speaker 1: the risk of provoking the very anti government activities that 44 00:02:56,680 --> 00:03:01,520 Speaker 1: the terrorism agencies claim their hoping to calm down and 45 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 1: or counter, the officials said to Newsweek, quote, especially at 46 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: a time when the White House is facing Congressional Republican 47 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 1: opposition claiming that the Biden administration has quote weaponized the 48 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:19,119 Speaker 1: Bureau against the right wing, it has to tread very carefully. 49 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 2: Well. 50 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 1: There is no accusation of them coming after and weaponizing 51 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 1: the DOJ and the FBI to come against conservatives, folks. 52 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 1: That's exactly what they're doing. They're doing it in broad daylight. 53 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 1: They're doing against the President of the United States of America. 54 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 1: They're trying to put Donald Trump in prison right now 55 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: for crimes that he did not commit, knowing that he 56 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 1: didn't commit the crimes, because they want to silence the 57 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 1: president of the United States of America. They want to 58 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 1: make sure you don't have the chance to actually vote 59 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 1: for him, and now if you support him, they now 60 00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 1: say that this is what's going to happen now. Also 61 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 1: has also reviewed secret FBI and Department of Homeland Security 62 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 1: data that tracks incidents, threats, investigations, and cases to try 63 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:16,720 Speaker 1: to build a better picture. While experts agree that the 64 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:22,359 Speaker 1: current partisan environment is charged and uniquely dangerous, with a 65 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 1: threat not only of violence but in the most extreme scenarios, 66 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 1: possibly civil war. They now claim. Many also question whether quote, 67 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 1: terrorism is the most effective way to describe the problem. 68 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 1: So we're all terrorists, it's terrorism, and they describe us 69 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 1: in the internal documents as a problem. So more than 70 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,160 Speaker 1: half of America is now a problem in the eyes 71 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:50,159 Speaker 1: of the FBI. They also say that the methods of 72 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:54,719 Speaker 1: counter terrorism developed over the past decade in response to 73 00:04:55,040 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 1: you ready for this, al Qaeda and other Islamic groups, 74 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 1: constitutes the most fruitful way to craft domestic solutions. So 75 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 1: to be clear, in this actual document that is classified, 76 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:15,719 Speaker 1: it's been leaked to Newsweek, they are describing the problem 77 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 1: of Magas supporters Trump voters as the same as al Qaeda. 78 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 1: And then they said they're going to use the same 79 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 1: methods of counter terrorism developed over the past decade in 80 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:31,840 Speaker 1: response to al Qaeda and other Islamic groups to then 81 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 1: monitor you. Now, my question is this, if I go 82 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,039 Speaker 1: to a conservative rally, am I now domestic terrorists like 83 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:43,159 Speaker 1: al Qaeda? Am I going to be treated the same 84 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 1: as al Qaeda? 85 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:45,679 Speaker 2: Quote? 86 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 1: The current political environment is not something that the FBI 87 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:52,320 Speaker 1: is necessarily responsible for, nor should it be. That's what 88 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 1: Brian Michael Jenkins, one of the world's leading terrorism experts 89 00:05:55,760 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 1: and senior advisors the president of the RAND Corporations, so 90 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 1: he's justifying this. In a statement to Newsweek, the FBI said, quote, 91 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 1: the threat posed by domestic violence extremists is persistent, evolving, 92 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:15,000 Speaker 1: and deadly. Okay, let's go back January six. They say 93 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 1: they're trying to prevent January six from happening again. They're saying, 94 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 1: it's it's just like al Qaida. How many people died 95 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 1: on January sixth one? And how did that woman die? 96 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:27,160 Speaker 1: She was shot by Capitol police officer. She didn't have 97 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 1: a weapon and they shot her, and he wasn't charged 98 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 1: of any crimes and they shot her. 99 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 2: Let's be clear about that. 100 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 1: But what the FBI is saying now publicly after they've 101 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 1: been busted with this memo is quote the threat posed 102 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 1: by domestic violent extremism is extremists is persistent, evolving, and deadly. 103 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: So even though no one killed anybody on January six, 104 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,560 Speaker 1: except for Capitol police shooting a woman who didn't have 105 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,280 Speaker 1: a gun or did not and did not have a weapon, 106 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:57,839 Speaker 1: the FBI is now saying we have to now go 107 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 1: out and treat MAGA supporters like this. They are domestic terrorists, 108 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:02,840 Speaker 1: and we're going to use the same tools we use 109 00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:06,560 Speaker 1: against al Qaeda. After nine to eleven, the FBI's goal 110 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 1: quote is to detect and stop terrorists attacks, and our 111 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: focus is on potential criminal violations, violence and threats to 112 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 1: violence quote. Anti government, anti authority, violent extremists is one 113 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 1: category of domestic terrorism as well as one of the 114 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 1: FBI's top threat priorities. The FBI further said, quote, we 115 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 1: are committed to protecting the safety and constitutional rights of 116 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:31,880 Speaker 1: all Americans. 117 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 2: Well that's bs. 118 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 1: No, they're not and will never open an investigation based 119 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 1: solely on First Amendment protected activity, including a person's political 120 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 1: beliefs or affiliation. Well that's a lie, because you guys 121 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 1: actually went after parents and declared they were domestic terrorists 122 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 1: for showing up and expressing their First Amendment protected rights 123 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 1: at school board meetings. We have the memo. The FBI 124 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 1: is lying to you. This is what they do in 125 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 1: third world countries and communists and socialist countries. Now you 126 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 1: want to know what the White House has to say 127 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 1: about this. The White House declined to commant on any 128 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 1: of this. Wow, there's also something else that's happened that 129 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 1: has come out of Newsweek, by the way, calling everyone 130 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: that's a Trump supporter or a domestic terrorists and well, 131 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 1: they're not calling us that. Let me rephrase that the 132 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 1: Biden administration, the FBI is not going to be monitoring 133 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 1: people that identify as Trump's supporters. The part that's interesting 134 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 1: about this is there's also another headline, and that is 135 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,559 Speaker 1: Donald Trump is going to be going apparently to Capitol 136 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:42,439 Speaker 1: Hill next week to talk to people on Capitol Hill, 137 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 1: or at least going to Washington to meet with people 138 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:49,599 Speaker 1: on Capitol Hill about him possibly becoming the Speaker. 139 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:51,200 Speaker 2: Of the House. 140 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 1: Now, this is pretty interesting, okay, because if he became 141 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:58,840 Speaker 1: the speaker, and let's entertain this idea for a second, 142 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:02,680 Speaker 1: because it's Jim Jordan's running that is, you know, there's 143 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 1: Steve Scalise that apparently is trying to run. But if 144 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:10,400 Speaker 1: Donald Trump came in and Donald Trump decided, all right, 145 00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:12,680 Speaker 1: I want to be the speaker, I'll be the speaker, 146 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:14,440 Speaker 1: right and. 147 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:15,320 Speaker 2: I'm going to come in here. 148 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 1: Imagine what he could do as speaker on the issue 149 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 1: of protecting our First Amendment right to free speech against 150 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:28,440 Speaker 1: the FBI coming after us and deciding that anyone that 151 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:32,840 Speaker 1: likes or supports Donald Trump is a terrorist on a 152 00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:35,960 Speaker 1: watch list that should be monitored, because that's what they 153 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 1: said they are going to do. 154 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:38,439 Speaker 2: Now. 155 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 1: Donald Trump made it clear, all right. He made it 156 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 1: very clear when he came out when he was asked 157 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:46,320 Speaker 1: about this. Hey, I will do whatever I need to 158 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 1: do to serve this country. And if that is something 159 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 1: that I do temporarily to serve this country, then then 160 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:52,080 Speaker 1: is he put it? 161 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:52,679 Speaker 2: So be it? 162 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:58,959 Speaker 1: That is a line that is one that people are 163 00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:04,680 Speaker 1: going to keep talking about. Should Donald Trump become the 164 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 1: Speaker of the House, What does that look like and 165 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 1: what does that mean? I gotta go back to Trump 166 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 1: and this idea of Okay, would he be an effective speaker? 167 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 1: He'd be a hell of a lot better I think 168 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:23,200 Speaker 1: than Kevin McCarthy. Would he be an effective speaker while 169 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 1: running for president and also while being in court. 170 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 2: I think it gives. 171 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 1: Him a platform at would make it very interesting. Do 172 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 1: I think he'd do worse than Kevin McCarthy. No, But 173 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 1: Donald Trump has said over and over again, I want 174 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 1: to serve this country. There are people that believe him 175 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 1: when he says that. There's others that do. I tend 176 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 1: to believe him.

You know that's 211 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:46,319 Speaker 1: not worth and anybody would buy it for that amount 212 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:46,600 Speaker 1: of money. 213 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 2: How I'd buy it for that amount of money. 214 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:50,960 Speaker 1: They're coming after this guy because they're afraid they can't 215 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:52,959 Speaker 1: beat him. They're coming after this guy because they want 216 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,840 Speaker 1: to teach a lesson to anybody in the that thinks 217 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 1: they might be like a Trump Republican and not a 218 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 1: Kevin McCarthy Republican right that plays the game within the 219 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 1: rules of the city and gets along with the Democrats, 220 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:06,760 Speaker 1: and and you know, if you come to Washington and 221 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:10,440 Speaker 1: you don't take on the FBI, take on the deep state, 222 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 1: then find they'll let you do your job right as 223 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:14,559 Speaker 1: long as you leave them alone. But if you do, 224 00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 1: they'll turn on you. And the Democratic Party has now 225 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:19,960 Speaker 1: said they will turn on you. Now they've turned on Trump. 226 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 1: He's going to be in court. I don't even know 227 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 1: years over all of this. But they're also coming after you, 228 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:31,680 Speaker 1: which is exactly what says when the FBIS comes out 229 00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 1: and says that MAGA Republicans are a top threat, and 230 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:37,679 Speaker 1: the FBI then says, well, we're committed to protecting the 231 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 1: safety and the constitutional rights of all Americans. 232 00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:40,400 Speaker 2: Know you're not. 233 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 1: They said, we'll never open investigation based only on first 234 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:44,120 Speaker 1: men of protect activity. 235 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:44,840 Speaker 2: That's a lie. 236 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:50,439 Speaker 1: They open investigations into people church because they were traditional Catholics. 237 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:54,520 Speaker 1: They categorize parents who to their school boards and spoke 238 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:57,600 Speaker 1: about their kids and about their curriculum, about their schools, which, 239 00:13:57,640 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 1: by the way, the parents with their tax dollars, and 240 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 1: they said that they were domestic terrorists. 241 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 2: They said they were domestic terrorists. That is opening an. 242 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:10,080 Speaker 1: Investigation labelling people solely based on First Amendment issue. But hey, 243 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:14,000 Speaker 1: the FBI says, we never open we will never open 244 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:17,760 Speaker 1: an investigation based protective activity, including a person's political beliefs 245 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:18,559 Speaker 1: or affiliations. 246 00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 2: That is a lie. 247 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:22,360 Speaker 1: They're coming after Trump, and they're coming after you if 248 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 1: you voted for Trump, and they have the memos that 249 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 1: we now have to prove it words, Donald Trump and 250 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 1: magg Republicans are a threat to the very soul of 251 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 1: this country. Donald Trump and magg Republicans so and he 252 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:35,320 Speaker 1: won that voted for him, to the very soul of 253 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 1: this country. That is President Biden's own words in his 254 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 1: own tweet last September, I'm tweeting, let's be honest, it's 255 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 1: his administration. It's his administration. That's the first time that 256 00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:50,600 Speaker 1: he explicitly referring to Biden singled out and his supporters 257 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 1: as a threat to this country. You are a terrorist 258 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:57,360 Speaker 1: threat because you support Trump or voted for Trump, and 259 00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 1: they will come after you, just like they're coming after 260 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 1: Donald Trump if you get too big. The idea of 261 00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:07,080 Speaker 1: Donald Trump possibly becoming the speaker in the midst of 262 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 1: all this, I don't have a problem with it. In fact, 263 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 1: I think it would be very interesting to see what 264 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:17,080 Speaker 1: he could do and how he would lead the Republicans 265 00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 1: very differently than Kevin McCarthy and go to war with 266 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 1: the Democrats and the deep state. As a speaker, now 267 00:15:26,160 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 1: to hear what Senator Ted Cruz had to say about 268 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 1: you being targeted by the FB if you voted for 269 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:36,480 Speaker 1: Donald Trump, obviously Ted Cruz would be on the list. 270 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:37,280 Speaker 2: I'm on the list. 271 00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 1: And if you voted in the last election on Trump 272 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:41,680 Speaker 1: or the one before, you're on the list, and the 273 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 1: FBI is going to monitor and come after you and 274 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 1: treat you like terrorists. They are targeting Trump followers for 275 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 1: the twenty twenty four election. 276 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 2: It's their memo. Listen to what Senata Cruz had about this. 277 00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:59,160 Speaker 1: I also want to get your take on a headline 278 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 1: that's really floaded while we've been taping this right now, 279 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 1: and that deals with there is now intel that shows 280 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 1: that Maga Republicans, Donald Trump's supporters, will be targeted by 281 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 1: the FBI as the twenty twenty four election nears. Newsweek 282 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:23,400 Speaker 1: is now reporting on this and Biden to go back 283 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:27,280 Speaker 1: tweeted in September of last year, quote Donald Trump and 284 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:30,280 Speaker 1: Maga Republicans are a threat to the very soul of 285 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:33,440 Speaker 1: this country, the very soul of this country. 286 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 2: Chris. 287 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 1: FBI director chrispher Ray and sworn testimony, said it's not 288 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 1: just Trump supporters. Early this year, he said, House Republicans say, 289 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 1: the FBI document that they've obtained proved that several field 290 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 1: offices contributed to a memo that targeted traditional Catholics. We 291 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 1: talked about this extensively on this show as potential tarrists 292 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 1: and tried to turn parishioners on their fellow church goers. 293 00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 1: So if you just look at the last year, parents 294 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:04,679 Speaker 1: who show up at school board meetings are to be 295 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:10,320 Speaker 1: labeled domestic terrorists. The FBI was spending time recruiting people 296 00:17:10,320 --> 00:17:13,640 Speaker 1: in the Catholic church to spy on their friends and family. 297 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 1: And now we are being told that heading into the 298 00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four election, that if you are a Donald 299 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:26,360 Speaker 1: Trump follower supporter, that you may be now monitored or 300 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:28,200 Speaker 1: targeted by the FBI. 301 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 4: Well, that's exactly right, and part of the challenge heare, like, 302 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 4: for example, you focused on the FBI's targeting of traditional Catholics, 303 00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:42,720 Speaker 4: which they rightly got enormous grief because they were talking 304 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:46,720 Speaker 4: about infiltrating Catholic churches and trying to get priests to 305 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 4: spy on their parishioners and become FBI informants to inform 306 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:56,920 Speaker 4: on the members of their church. So initially the FBI said, oh, 307 00:17:56,960 --> 00:18:00,200 Speaker 4: that was a rogue office down in Richmond, Virginia, it's 308 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:03,720 Speaker 4: not a broader problem. Now that they've admitted that it 309 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:06,679 Speaker 4: was multiple offices that participated in that this was a 310 00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:13,159 Speaker 4: much broader effort to target traditional Catholics. And the same 311 00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:18,199 Speaker 4: is true with the targeting of Donald Trump's supporters. You know, 312 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:20,879 Speaker 4: even this language, so you can tell someone did a 313 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:24,879 Speaker 4: focus group on the Democrat side and they discovered the 314 00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:28,679 Speaker 4: phrase maga Republican. They're going to brand that that like 315 00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:31,639 Speaker 4: magi by the way, maga Republican, and their definition they 316 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 4: mean everybody. They literally mean every Republican is a maga Republican. 317 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:38,920 Speaker 4: And then they just think the word maga is really scary, 318 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:43,919 Speaker 4: and they claim that if you are a maga Republican 319 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 4: is defined as a Republican who voted for Donald Trump. 320 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 4: So you know, seventy five to eighty million Americans are defined, 321 00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:57,920 Speaker 4: according to this White House as potential terrorists, as threats 322 00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:00,880 Speaker 4: to democracy, and this is this, this is how Democrats 323 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 4: have become radicalized. They now say, if you dare vote 324 00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:09,719 Speaker 4: against Democrats, you are a threat to democracy. Just understand, 325 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:14,760 Speaker 4: every time Democrats use the word democracy, what they mean 326 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 4: is me, I'm a Democrat. I want to get elected, 327 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:22,760 Speaker 4: and anything that stands in my way is a quote 328 00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:29,720 Speaker 4: threat to democracy. They don't actually want that. They don't 329 00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:33,640 Speaker 4: actually want real democracy if it elects Republicans. What they 330 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 4: want is Democrats to be in power forever. And by 331 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:40,520 Speaker 4: the way, this is intimately connected to their lawlessness on 332 00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:43,480 Speaker 4: the southern border, because the reason they've allowed seven point 333 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:46,920 Speaker 4: six million illegal immigrants into the country is because they 334 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 4: want to subvert democracy by getting them to vote for 335 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:52,520 Speaker 4: Democrats and keep Democrats in power. 336 00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 1: Sinri I also think we should bring up in the 337 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 1: Newsweek article, it says that if you voted for Donald Trump, 338 00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:01,119 Speaker 1: the government will try. 339 00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 4: Well, that's right. And in June of this year, the 340 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 4: FBI and the Department of Homeland Security filed a joint 341 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:15,680 Speaker 4: report with Congress. And what they say in that joint 342 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 4: report is they say, quote, threats from domestic violent extremists 343 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:25,320 Speaker 4: have increased in the last two years, and any further 344 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:30,600 Speaker 4: increases in threats likely will correspond to potential flash points 345 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 4: such as high profile elections and campaigns or contentious current events. 346 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:43,000 Speaker 4: So they're saying terrorists are associated with high profile elections. 347 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:46,160 Speaker 4: And just to make sure there's no ambiguity that they're 348 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:49,400 Speaker 4: not talking about Antifa, they're not talking about left wing terrorists. 349 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:54,920 Speaker 4: They are focused on Republicans. Here's what the report concludes. 350 00:20:55,000 --> 00:21:02,399 Speaker 4: Quote socio political developments such as narratives of fraud in 351 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 4: the recent general election, conditions related to the COVID nineteen pandemic, 352 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:14,879 Speaker 4: and conspiracy theories promoting violence will almost certainly spur some 353 00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:20,840 Speaker 4: domestic terrorists to try to engage in violence. Now, everything 354 00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:25,639 Speaker 4: they list there they associate with Republicans. And notice they 355 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:29,639 Speaker 4: say COVID. So if you don't like lockdowns, you're a terrorist. 356 00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:32,639 Speaker 4: If you don't like forced maskings, you're a terrorist. If 357 00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:35,280 Speaker 4: you don't like vaccine mandates, you're a terrorist. If you're 358 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:40,399 Speaker 4: concerned about the potential health negative effects of forced vaccines, 359 00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:44,440 Speaker 4: of the COVID vaccines, you're a terrorist. That is the narrative. 360 00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 4: Anyone that disagrees with the regime they now define as 361 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:54,239 Speaker 4: a violent extremist, and amazingly enough, left wing violence in 362 00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:57,879 Speaker 4: their narrative doesn't exist. So Black Lives Matter, not a 363 00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:03,320 Speaker 4: word about them, Antifa, not a word about them. The 364 00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:08,439 Speaker 4: efforts targeting. Look, we've got now violent riots that are 365 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:12,520 Speaker 4: playing out right now in cities like Philadelphia, where they're 366 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:16,440 Speaker 4: ransacking and looting stores, where they're attacking police officers. That 367 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:20,919 Speaker 4: is not violent extremism. If you're a leftist, that's okay, 368 00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 4: that's wonderful, that is beautiful social protest to burn American cities. 369 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:30,920 Speaker 4: But yet, if if you're if you don't want to 370 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:35,120 Speaker 4: see America lockdown again on COVID, clearly you're a terrorist. 371 00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:37,480 Speaker 1: Final question to you. I think we should give it. 372 00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 1: A quick update on that speakership and the House vote 373 00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:44,399 Speaker 1: kind of risen to the top at this point. He 374 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 1: said he's willing to be the speaker that would be 375 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 1: And if you missed our interview with him, a two 376 00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:53,399 Speaker 1: part series on the Hunter Byden Investigation, go back and 377 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 1: listen to it. 378 00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:55,840 Speaker 2: He's phenomenal on this issue. 379 00:22:56,280 --> 00:23:00,240 Speaker 1: Talk about the timeline now of when we expect the 380 00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:03,160 Speaker 1: House side to take this up of deciding again who's 381 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:04,399 Speaker 1: going to be the speaker. 382 00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:07,160 Speaker 4: Well, my understanding is the House is going to vote 383 00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:09,960 Speaker 4: on speaker next week and then I expect it to 384 00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:13,000 Speaker 4: be a roller coaster ride. I mean, you remember, back 385 00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:16,720 Speaker 4: in January, we had a roller coaster ride of over 386 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:21,240 Speaker 4: a dozen different ballots before Kevin McCarthy was elected Speaker, 387 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 4: and it was very narrow. It may well be a 388 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:27,680 Speaker 4: similar battle at this point. There are several contenders that 389 00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:32,359 Speaker 4: are talking about running. Two have announced publicly. One is 390 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:37,200 Speaker 4: Steve Scalise. Steve Scalise is the Majority Leader was Kevin 391 00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:42,400 Speaker 4: McCarthy's number two. Steve is generally perceived to be more 392 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:48,800 Speaker 4: conservative than McCarthy, and so Steve is running as the 393 00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:53,879 Speaker 4: candidate that can unify both the moderates in the Republican 394 00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:58,119 Speaker 4: Conference and also some of the conservatives. A second candidate 395 00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:00,919 Speaker 4: who's running, as you noted as Jim Jordan. Jim Jordan 396 00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:04,440 Speaker 4: was one of the original founders of the Freedom Caucus. 397 00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:08,919 Speaker 4: He is a prominent and well known conservative. The media 398 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 4: is deeply skeptical of Jim Jordan, and they say he's 399 00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 4: too conservative to get elected and the moderates will never 400 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:16,119 Speaker 4: support him. I don't know if that's true or not. 401 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:21,560 Speaker 4: There is also discussion that Kevin Hearn, who is a 402 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 4: Republican from Oklahoma, that he may run Kevin is a 403 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:28,760 Speaker 4: good man. It's not clear if he will, although there 404 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:32,119 Speaker 4: have been reports that he's telling other Republicans he's looking 405 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:34,879 Speaker 4: at the race seriously. And then there's been some chatter 406 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 4: that Chip Roy might run. I don't know if Chip 407 00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 4: will run or not. At this point, neither Kevin nor 408 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 4: Chip are in the race, But next week they might 409 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:47,680 Speaker 4: both be in the race. And I don't know if 410 00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:50,199 Speaker 4: yet another Republican might jump in. So I think it 411 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 4: will be vigorously contested. I'm sure there is a lot 412 00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:57,639 Speaker 4: of horse trading going on right now. There's a lot 413 00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:02,040 Speaker 4: of negotiations going on right now. Now. What's striking is 414 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 4: that each of the potential candidates went and met with 415 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:07,600 Speaker 4: the Texas delegation. The reason they met with the Texas 416 00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:12,480 Speaker 4: delegation is Texas is the largest contingent of House Republicans, 417 00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 4: and so you've got the biggest block of votes, particularly 418 00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:18,399 Speaker 4: if the Texas Delegation votes together. It's not clear that 419 00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:21,840 Speaker 4: they will, but they might, and so at this point 420 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,719 Speaker 4: I don't know what will happen. My intention is to 421 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:28,399 Speaker 4: stay out of it and to leave leadership elections to 422 00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:32,479 Speaker 4: House Republicans. But the answer as to who comes out 423 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:34,480 Speaker 4: of it is going to matter quite a bit, and 424 00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 4: so we will certainly watch with interest and continue to 425 00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:41,160 Speaker 4: provide the best analysis we can. 426 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:43,639 Speaker 1: One of the things I've heard over the last twenty 427 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 1: four to forty eight hours center is there are people 428 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:48,240 Speaker 1: that love Jim Jordan, but they don't want to lose 429 00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:51,760 Speaker 1: him on this investigation of Hunter Biden, and they're afraid 430 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:55,679 Speaker 1: that if he became the speak expertise, is that something 431 00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:58,359 Speaker 1: that should be a concern or could he still continue 432 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:00,240 Speaker 1: to do both or have more powers of speak. 433 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:03,280 Speaker 4: Well, look, there's no doubt that the Speaker is by 434 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:07,000 Speaker 4: far the most powerful player in the House, and the 435 00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 4: Speaker of the House has enormous institutional authority. The questions 436 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 4: of what is the best role for each of the 437 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:17,440 Speaker 4: Republicans in the House are going to be questions that 438 00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:19,199 Speaker 4: that the House members are going to have to decide. 439 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:21,400 Speaker 4: And I'm sure if if that's a question being asked 440 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:24,520 Speaker 4: about Jim Jordan, I imagine Jim will be answering that 441 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:27,360 Speaker 4: question to his colleagues. And I expect a whole lot 442 00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:33,240 Speaker 4: of conversations on between all the House Republicans throughout this 443 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:37,000 Speaker 4: weekend and throughout next week, and and my guess is 444 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:40,520 Speaker 4: we'll see multiple ballots uh and, and we'll see what 445 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 4: ultimately comes up.
