1
00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:16,520
Speaker 1: You are entering the freedom hunt. The Trump economy continues

2
00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:19,639
Speaker 1: to roar despite the deep state efforts to pull down

3
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:22,680
Speaker 1: this president. He's doing a fantastic job making sure that

4
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:26,400
Speaker 1: America is prosperous and helping America be as great as

5
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:29,080
Speaker 1: it can be. We'll get into the latest jobs numbers. Also,

6
00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:32,959
Speaker 1: where does Spygate stand? How deep did the spying go?

7
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:36,080
Speaker 1: We've got that and much more coming up Freestyle Friday

8
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:40,880
Speaker 1: on The Buck Sexton Show. This is the Buck Sexton Show,

9
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:43,960
Speaker 1: where the mission or mission is to decode what really

10
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:50,760
Speaker 1: matters with actionable intelligence. Make no mistake America, You're a

11
00:00:50,760 --> 00:01:01,160
Speaker 1: great American Again, the Buck Sexton Show begins. What people

12
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:04,800
Speaker 1: are witnessing is that the agenda the President Trump ran on,

13
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:07,039
Speaker 1: that we've been delivering on over the last two years

14
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:10,800
Speaker 1: is working for every American. I mean, this Job's report

15
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:13,120
Speaker 1: two hundred and sixty three thousand jobs in the month

16
00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 1: of April and the lowest unemployment rate in nearly fifty

17
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:20,360
Speaker 1: years is simply a confirmation of what the President has

18
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:23,000
Speaker 1: said all along. If you let Americans keep more of

19
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 1: what they are and you cut taxes on individuals and businesses,

20
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,560
Speaker 1: you roll back federal red tape, you unleash American energy,

21
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:31,840
Speaker 1: you fight for the kind of trade deals that put

22
00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 1: American jobs in, American workers first, if the American economy

23
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:39,319
Speaker 1: would come roaring back, and we're witnessing it, and it's

24
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:42,839
Speaker 1: truly inspiring. A first quarter number of three point two

25
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 1: percent after eight years under Obama and Biden where we

26
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 1: saw less than two percent economic growth. This is a

27
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 1: great day for America. And it's all a result of

28
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 1: the leadership the President Trump's spent advancing on the economy.

29
00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:02,560
Speaker 1: Great day for America. Bad day for the libs, Libs,

30
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:06,200
Speaker 1: the left wing media. They're getting owned right now by

31
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 1: reality of this economy. Welcome to the Buck Saxon Show, folks.

32
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 1: The Drudge Report says it, well, today, envy of the

33
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:18,640
Speaker 1: world unemployment forty nine year low. That's right. We have

34
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:26,040
Speaker 1: the lowest unemployment rate since nineteen sixty nine. Wages hits

35
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,360
Speaker 1: twenty seven dollars and seventy seven cents an. Our stock

36
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 1: market is in a huge rally. Trump approval, as Paulier says,

37
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 1: fifty percent boom. The country is in fact booming. Things

38
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:43,920
Speaker 1: are going well. We are not in the midst of

39
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 1: a of a you know, series of major terrorist attacks

40
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 1: on the homeland. We are not in the middle of

41
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 1: a grinding war where we're losing, you know, dozens of

42
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:57,359
Speaker 1: Americans a month, hundreds of casualties a month. We're not

43
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 1: you know, digging out from some terrible economy or you know,

44
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:06,200
Speaker 1: anemic economic growth or country is doing well. And yet

45
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:12,320
Speaker 1: the narrative you here from most of the press, from

46
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:17,920
Speaker 1: most of the media is that there's a threat to

47
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 1: our democracy. Oh my gosh, there's a threat to our

48
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 1: democracy right now. What is the is the super low

49
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 1: unemployment making them triggered and making them really sad that

50
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 1: people are getting jobs, that the tax cuts worked, that um,

51
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:42,880
Speaker 1: you know, that the reality of the economy is undeniable

52
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 1: and that it's going well. They can hate on Trump

53
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,480
Speaker 1: all they want, but they were saying that Trump was

54
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 1: going to crater the economy. They can't handle it, folks.

55
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 1: It's mourning in America. And our jobs are great, our

56
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 1: styting and look, we got problems the borders and masks.

57
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:02,520
Speaker 1: I tell you the problems all the time. We have

58
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,839
Speaker 1: to balance it out. Sometime. You're not gonna hear from

59
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 1: from ninety five percent of the media anything positive about

60
00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 1: what's going on. In the country right now that's attributed

61
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 1: to Trump. Maybe it's even more than ninety five percent.

62
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 1: So sometimes I have to take a moment. I you

63
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 1: know that when the numbers come in, we look at

64
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 1: what's going on. We really want to put Bernie Sanders

65
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,039
Speaker 1: in charge. I mean, that's supposed to be the answer. Now,

66
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 1: we're gonna make sure that U employments dots to go up.

67
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:30,920
Speaker 1: We're gonna make sure your taxes go up. We're gonna

68
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 1: make sure that you know, you can't have a prosperous

69
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:36,719
Speaker 1: future because somebody else might not have a prosperous future.

70
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:39,720
Speaker 1: And that's not fair. So you're gonna have to be poor.

71
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,920
Speaker 1: They're gonna have to be poor. That's better for everybody.

72
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:46,360
Speaker 1: Does anyone really think that's a good idea. Let me

73
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 1: look at these Democrats. What are they What are they

74
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,960
Speaker 1: complaining about? I keep saying this to my liberal friends.

75
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:55,279
Speaker 1: You're also they're all so upset. They're also, oh my gosh, Trump,

76
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 1: it's so terrible. What's so terrible? The things that either

77
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 1: are terrible the borders back add healthcare costs are too high,

78
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,480
Speaker 1: college is too expensive, there's too much public debt, there's

79
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 1: too much you know, money that we've promised to pay

80
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:09,040
Speaker 1: back that we're not going to be able to pay back.

81
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 1: I mean, there are problems. I'm gonna talk about them

82
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:14,279
Speaker 1: a lot, but they're not like dire. Oh my gosh,

83
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 1: what are we gonna do? And what has Trump done

84
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 1: to us? Problems? Oh no, Trump. These people are hysterical,

85
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,240
Speaker 1: and not in a haha way, in a calm down way.

86
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 1: You know, some of them need to have a glass

87
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 1: of Chardonnay and Zenny, although don't mix those, that's bad,

88
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:34,160
Speaker 1: but you know they need to They need to calm down,

89
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 1: They need to chill out. Things are good. But you know, actually,

90
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:45,720
Speaker 1: what you realize is that there is a large contingent

91
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 1: of the Democratic Party that is actively rooting against America

92
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,479
Speaker 1: at this point. There's a large contanging of the Democrat

93
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:54,600
Speaker 1: Party on the left who would like to see more

94
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:58,799
Speaker 1: suffering because they want Trump to fail. And what Trump

95
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 1: has promised is process, parity and sanity in our government.

96
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:06,719
Speaker 1: He's promised a common sense approach to stop with all

97
00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 1: the ideologically driven craziness about the economy, not to allow

98
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,559
Speaker 1: us to become a more socialist country, not to allow

99
00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:18,080
Speaker 1: Marxism and social justice and identity politics to take over.

100
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,920
Speaker 1: And because he's taken that approach, and because things are

101
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 1: going well, guess what, guess what's happening. Things are going

102
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:29,880
Speaker 1: things are going in a very positive direction. And the

103
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:34,719
Speaker 1: Libs hate that. They hate it. They look bad. The

104
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,960
Speaker 1: Paul Krugman's of the World, the New York Times editorial Board,

105
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 1: the Washington Post that you know, they were they were

106
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:44,719
Speaker 1: saying that this was going to be a complete disaster.

107
00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:49,600
Speaker 1: And how how foolish all these all these Trump rednecks

108
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 1: across the country, you know, all of the people that voted,

109
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:53,600
Speaker 1: people like you and me who voted for Trump, were

110
00:06:53,640 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 1: such fools. Really apparently not apparently, we're actually doing a

111
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:04,000
Speaker 1: really good job, or we you know, Trump is doing

112
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:05,320
Speaker 1: a really good job, and we did a good job

113
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 1: by voting for him. I think that, you know, if anything,

114
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:14,360
Speaker 1: the mainstream media owes us a bit of an apology.

115
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 1: I went an apology. We're never gonna get don't get

116
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,800
Speaker 1: me wrong. And they have no they have no interest whatsoever,

117
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 1: absolutely none in making this right, in trying to understand

118
00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:29,960
Speaker 1: how was it that. And many of you listened to

119
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:31,880
Speaker 1: the show, and I give you full credit. You saw

120
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 1: it early in the primary said, you got it. You

121
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:36,320
Speaker 1: just gotta under there's something here with Trump, there's something

122
00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:38,560
Speaker 1: that's changed. It's not perfect. He hasn't feel filled all

123
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:41,360
Speaker 1: the promises. We don't have a wall, I know. But

124
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 1: the single most important thing for most Americans when it

125
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 1: comes to the government, well, protect my individual rights in

126
00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 1: my property and you know, adhere to the constitution. Let's

127
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:53,920
Speaker 1: have the economy be strong too. Let's have people able

128
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 1: to feed themselves, feed their families, pay their rent, pay

129
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 1: their mortgage, and let's not have government get in the way.

130
00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:08,160
Speaker 1: How do they explain this what the Democrats have put

131
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:10,680
Speaker 1: so much stock in this Russia collusion fairy tale, which

132
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:14,360
Speaker 1: was such a fraud, such a farce, and there's been

133
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:16,280
Speaker 1: really very little from them in the economy. All they

134
00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,080
Speaker 1: talk about is the tax cuts for the rich. Tax

135
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:19,560
Speaker 1: cuts for the rich, ractity as a tax cut for

136
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 1: everybody who really pays taxes, almost everybody who pays taxes.

137
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 1: It's hard to get people a tax cut if they

138
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:27,679
Speaker 1: don't pay the income tax, which is half the country,

139
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 1: so start with that. But of the people who pay taxes,

140
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,120
Speaker 1: a vast majority did get a cut, so they have

141
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:35,560
Speaker 1: more money. That's a bad thing. Now, Democrats opposed that,

142
00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:38,400
Speaker 1: Look what it's doing to the economy. What is the

143
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:42,240
Speaker 1: narrative of why things need to change? What is the

144
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 1: narrative the Democrats can really offer for there need to

145
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 1: be a switch in the trajectory of the politics of

146
00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:55,920
Speaker 1: this country because of what I mean, it's you hear

147
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 1: crickets chirping. I mean, this is why they can't really

148
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:00,720
Speaker 1: figure out who their candidates going to be or what

149
00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:04,120
Speaker 1: they're gonna do, because there is no easy narrative. If

150
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 1: the economy continues as is, If we just keep moving

151
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:10,640
Speaker 1: this direction, Trump will crush any Democrat who runs against him.

152
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,480
Speaker 1: I'm very confident in that if we get a cyclical downturn,

153
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 1: heaven forbid, it's gonna be tough because then the narratives

154
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:20,160
Speaker 1: that they tell start to make sense. Oh, Trump is

155
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 1: a corporatist and he just wants to help the billionaires

156
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:25,280
Speaker 1: and the millionaires and all this stuff. And even though

157
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,800
Speaker 1: we know that that's just claptrap, that's just talking points

158
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 1: from the left. It resonates when people are feeling the pain.

159
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:32,640
Speaker 1: But when people are feeling the good stuff, which is

160
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 1: what we're seeing right now, that stuff doesn't resonate at all.

161
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:39,720
Speaker 1: All this socialism talk from the left. I think I'd

162
00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:45,080
Speaker 1: rather have everyone getting higher wages, getting good jobs, and

163
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 1: not being constantly lectured about how they didn't build that,

164
00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 1: how they didn't earn that, how they need to give

165
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:54,960
Speaker 1: more to the government. The government's the reason for their success.

166
00:09:55,000 --> 00:10:01,959
Speaker 1: All this stuff. It's time to change the approach, Chairman.

167
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:05,200
Speaker 1: Changed the approach from what the Democrats offer up here

168
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:08,160
Speaker 1: day to day for why they should get votes. Because

169
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:12,360
Speaker 1: it's not working. It's not working. So I just here

170
00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:14,559
Speaker 1: to tell you forty nine year low and unemployment. It's

171
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:19,319
Speaker 1: the best unemployment number since nineteen sixty nine. Donald Trump

172
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:23,760
Speaker 1: is president. The country is prospering. We have not started

173
00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:26,080
Speaker 1: some war we didn't need to fight. We do not

174
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 1: have you know, some terrible security you know, imminent security

175
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:33,120
Speaker 1: threat that threatens the very foundations of this country. We're

176
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,040
Speaker 1: not in the midst of a recession. We're not in

177
00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:37,959
Speaker 1: the midst of deep civil discord. Other than the Democrats

178
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:41,880
Speaker 1: being crazy and Trump's arranged things are good. Maybe Democrats

179
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:44,640
Speaker 1: would just say, thank you, President Trump. May we have

180
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:49,760
Speaker 1: another four years, I think, so stay with me. America

181
00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:56,840
Speaker 1: is a nation of believers, right, It's straight the prayers

182
00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 1: of religious believers helped gain our independence, and the prayers

183
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 1: of religious leaders like the Reverend Martin Luther King Great

184
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:10,560
Speaker 1: Man helped win the long struggle for civil rights. Faith

185
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:16,120
Speaker 1: has shaped our families, and it's shaped our communities. It's

186
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 1: inspired our commitment to charity and our defense of liberty,

187
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:26,600
Speaker 1: and faith has forged the identity and the destiny of

188
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 1: this great nation that we all love. You often hear

189
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:39,480
Speaker 1: democrats libs attack people of faith for their support of

190
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:42,319
Speaker 1: Donald Trump, and there's a real that was all from

191
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:46,480
Speaker 1: the National Prayer Breakfast yesterday, and there's a very clear

192
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:52,720
Speaker 1: tone of a kind of condescension, as though people who

193
00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:59,679
Speaker 1: are traditional Christians, who are in a conservative Orthodox Jews,

194
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,000
Speaker 1: or just people of of of any faith tradition that

195
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:10,840
Speaker 1: want the kind of religious freedom and respect that is

196
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,680
Speaker 1: much more likely to come from the right than you'll

197
00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:15,360
Speaker 1: see on the left these days. And the left is

198
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:17,800
Speaker 1: people that talk about tolerance all the time, but who

199
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:21,320
Speaker 1: are deeply intolerant, especially when it comes to religious belief,

200
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:24,840
Speaker 1: at least non Islamic religious belief, the only religion that

201
00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:27,800
Speaker 1: they really want, they run interference for and will defend

202
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 1: and will downplay any any negative side of Islam. But

203
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:36,680
Speaker 1: anything that's Judeo Christian they have, they'll they'll have a

204
00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:39,920
Speaker 1: problem with The left has issues with it. You know,

205
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:45,240
Speaker 1: the militant atheism is overwhelmingly found on the left, and

206
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:49,079
Speaker 1: or maybe you'd say strident atheism is overwhelmingly found on

207
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 1: the left. But they speak in these sneering, snide tones

208
00:12:55,400 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 1: about those people of faith, especially evangelicals who supp ordered Trump.

209
00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:03,320
Speaker 1: But did you even hear about the National Prayer Breakfast

210
00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:05,000
Speaker 1: and what Trump said? Now, of course the media had

211
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 1: no interest in this at all. They wanted to take

212
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:13,640
Speaker 1: video of a fried chicken bucket at the Capitol Building

213
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 1: because Bill Bar didn't want to show up for the

214
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:21,439
Speaker 1: complete circus the Democrats had planned for him. And oh,

215
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,079
Speaker 1: by the way, there there's a new there's a new

216
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:27,119
Speaker 1: effort now to get rid of Bar. They want the

217
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:31,480
Speaker 1: the DC Bar I'm sorry, the DC and Virginia Bar

218
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 1: Association to investigate him. You know, they had to come

219
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,560
Speaker 1: up with yet he had another way to try and

220
00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:42,240
Speaker 1: Sully Bar's reputation make him seem like he's on something wrong.

221
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:43,920
Speaker 1: I mean, I just a bar is you know, I

222
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:45,679
Speaker 1: don't get excited about people. And look, I don't know

223
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:47,079
Speaker 1: if he's a nice guy or not, although I know

224
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:51,200
Speaker 1: people that work for him and say excellent things about him,

225
00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:55,120
Speaker 1: say he's just a totally squired away, solid dude. And

226
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:56,800
Speaker 1: you know, I hope that anybody who ever worked with me,

227
00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 1: if they were asked, that's what they would say about me.

228
00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:00,280
Speaker 1: If they said Bucks a squared away, solid dude, I'd

229
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:05,560
Speaker 1: be very happy a try. But you know, Bar is

230
00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 1: such the right man for this moment in time. I mean,

231
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:12,320
Speaker 1: you need somebody who's a real almost a ringer in

232
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 1: this role, and somebody who really understands the ins and out,

233
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,960
Speaker 1: who's been there before, who's not going to get shaken

234
00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:23,920
Speaker 1: up by the left's efforts to just destroy it. I mean,

235
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 1: they're just trying to destroy him. They want the Bar

236
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:28,800
Speaker 1: Association investigative. Enough, Nancy Pelosi's saying he lied, saying he

237
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:30,760
Speaker 1: broke the law of Nancy Pelosi's a disgrace, and she's

238
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:35,280
Speaker 1: an idiot, very powerful idiot, but she's an idiot. Anyway,

239
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:37,800
Speaker 1: back to the National Prayer Breakfast, and you know, the

240
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:40,400
Speaker 1: media wanted to show you stuff about Bar. They didn't

241
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:42,880
Speaker 1: want to talk about what Trump was saying. But you know,

242
00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:47,200
Speaker 1: Trump speaks of faith and makes it clear that he

243
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:49,720
Speaker 1: has a friend to religious freedom. He's a friend true

244
00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:53,760
Speaker 1: traditional Christians and will have it and has had an

245
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:57,920
Speaker 1: administration that stands up for those who are religious and

246
00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:03,600
Speaker 1: believe in the expression of their religion and not being

247
00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 1: confined to private practice. I mean that there can be

248
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:10,800
Speaker 1: some religion in the public square. And I just think

249
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 1: that Trump has done a pretty good job on this one.

250
00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 1: You know, would I say that Trump himself seems like

251
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:22,040
Speaker 1: a particularly stern, strongly religious guy. I mean, you know,

252
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 1: I don't know. I can't speak for the men. Obviously

253
00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 1: his background in some of his habits would not but

254
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:29,560
Speaker 1: you know, but who might have cast the first stone

255
00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:31,800
Speaker 1: on all these things? And I'm not here to judge.

256
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 1: I guess I kind of am because I'm a radio

257
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:36,880
Speaker 1: talk show host. But you know what I'm saying, I

258
00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:38,760
Speaker 1: think the guys. You know, he's made some choices that

259
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:40,240
Speaker 1: I wouldn't have made. He's done some things that I

260
00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:42,200
Speaker 1: wouldn't have approved of, but he's also done a lot

261
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:45,040
Speaker 1: of amazing things. Thank you for beating Hillary Clinton. Start

262
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:48,160
Speaker 1: with that. But he's a friend too. He's a friend

263
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 1: too evangelicals, and he's and you know, obviously as Vice

264
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 1: President Mike Pence is certainly a friend too traditional and

265
00:15:54,280 --> 00:16:01,120
Speaker 1: believing Christians. So I think that despite all the condescension

266
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,440
Speaker 1: from the left about this issue, saying, oh, Donald Trump,

267
00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:07,200
Speaker 1: the billionaire playboy with three wives, he's he's going to

268
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:10,160
Speaker 1: stand up for evangelical Christians, you know, across the country

269
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 1: and in the Bible Belt. And actually, yeah he is.

270
00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:17,240
Speaker 1: So those who voted for him under that, well, under

271
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:20,440
Speaker 1: that agreement, in a sense, they weren't being foolish. They

272
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:23,520
Speaker 1: were being there. They had foresight, not foolishness. They were right.

273
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 1: One more thing here from the prayer breakfast. You know,

274
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:31,640
Speaker 1: there was this terrible synagogue shooting recently. I just wanted

275
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 1: to hear from a Rabbi Goldstein on this one placlabit.

276
00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:40,720
Speaker 1: My life has changed forever, but it changed so I

277
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:44,800
Speaker 1: could make change and I could help others learn how

278
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:48,240
Speaker 1: to be strong. Many have asked me, Rabbi, where do

279
00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 1: we go from here? If something good could come out

280
00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:55,400
Speaker 1: of this terrible, terrible, horrific event, let us bring back

281
00:16:55,480 --> 00:17:00,240
Speaker 1: a moment of silence to our public school system. Of

282
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:06,920
Speaker 1: silence the public school system, reflection, quiet, contemplation, thinking about

283
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:10,800
Speaker 1: what really matters, thinking about what we all value. Are

284
00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:12,680
Speaker 1: we really to think that a moment of silence should

285
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:15,760
Speaker 1: be banned because it could be a time when people pray.

286
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,720
Speaker 1: Do we really want to make the assumption that silent

287
00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:21,720
Speaker 1: prayer to oneself is somehow a violation of the church

288
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:26,000
Speaker 1: and state separation. I don't know how many of you

289
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:27,679
Speaker 1: saw this, but it's worth it if you have not

290
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:31,119
Speaker 1: seen it. The videos and making the rounds of a

291
00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:36,560
Speaker 1: recent siren that played in Israel for Holocaust remembrance for

292
00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:41,360
Speaker 1: the six million Jews were murdered exterminated in the Holocaust,

293
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:46,040
Speaker 1: and there's video of Israelis all around the country stopping

294
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:48,080
Speaker 1: what they're doing for two minutes while a siren Blair's

295
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:51,280
Speaker 1: for a moment of silence. You know, it's important that

296
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:54,480
Speaker 1: we all take a moment, whether it's day to day

297
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:56,920
Speaker 1: or you know, whether it's just in church on Sunday

298
00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:01,040
Speaker 1: or whenever you celebrate your real disbeliefs, whenever you go

299
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:04,560
Speaker 1: to service, it is important to think about what matters,

300
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:09,080
Speaker 1: and perhaps some of the trials and tribulations that we've

301
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:11,600
Speaker 1: seen this country of later just a reminder of how

302
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:14,680
Speaker 1: we need to be willing to take a step back

303
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:18,000
Speaker 1: and focus on that on that big picture, even if

304
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:20,119
Speaker 1: just for a few moments, it can bring tremendous clarity.

305
00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:23,720
Speaker 1: So I understand. I think, what that rabbi, why he

306
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:25,960
Speaker 1: has that entreaty, why he'd like to see a moment

307

333
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:55,520
Speaker 1: in the Muller Report with mister Bruten today. Well, we

334
00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:59,600
Speaker 1: discussed that he actually sort of smiled when he said

335
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,080
Speaker 1: something to the effect that it started off as a

336
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,919
Speaker 1: mountain and it ended up being a mouse. But he

337
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:09,480
Speaker 1: knew that because he knew there was no collusion whatsoever.

338
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:13,960
Speaker 1: Uh so, uh, pretty much that's what it was started off.

339
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:20,560
Speaker 1: Excuse me, I'm talking. I'm answering this question. You are

340
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:23,960
Speaker 1: very rude. So we had a good conversation about many

341
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:28,639
Speaker 1: different things. Okay, you are very rude. I think I

342
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,800
Speaker 1: think it's uh, you know, it's good that sometimes Trump

343
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,119
Speaker 1: throws a high pitch over the plate to brush somebody

344
00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 1: back a little bit when they're getting on him. You know,

345
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:41,359
Speaker 1: let the President United States speak. There is far greater

346
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:44,720
Speaker 1: comfort with interrupting this president than you saw with President Obama.

347
00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. You remember if a journalist asked President

348
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:52,480
Speaker 1: Obama a question that was in any way challenging, it was, oh,

349
00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:57,840
Speaker 1: how dare you? That tone sounded so racist. We hear

350
00:20:57,880 --> 00:20:59,280
Speaker 1: about We used to hear about that all the time.

351
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:03,520
Speaker 1: I remember this. I have not forgotten the way that

352
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:06,440
Speaker 1: they were, the way the journalists interacted with and were

353
00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:09,720
Speaker 1: expected by one another to interact with Obama, versus the

354
00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:14,280
Speaker 1: way they act with Trump. But he's correct here when

355
00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:18,400
Speaker 1: he says that this is really about scale, and that's

356
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,720
Speaker 1: where the primary exaggeration comes in him. And that's where

357
00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:25,040
Speaker 1: you really see that you can't trust the Democrats on

358
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:29,439
Speaker 1: this stuff at all. They have acted all along like

359
00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:33,679
Speaker 1: Russia collusion was a much bigger deal than it was,

360
00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:37,680
Speaker 1: and because they've magnified it so much in their own

361
00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,400
Speaker 1: perception and tried to magnify it in the public's perception.

362
00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:44,320
Speaker 1: Trump gets frustrated, and that's why he says, I don't

363
00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:46,879
Speaker 1: know who to believe or whatever, because he understands that

364
00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:51,600
Speaker 1: they want to talk about Russian interference. The reason it

365
00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:54,080
Speaker 1: resonates so much with Democrats in their left wing base

366
00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:57,800
Speaker 1: is because it's a way of saying that Trump didn't

367
00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:02,720
Speaker 1: really win. Okay, that's what they're saying. Trump didn't really

368
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:09,160
Speaker 1: win the election. Trump cheated or someone cheated on Trump's behalf.

369
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:13,040
Speaker 1: So he understandably gets frustrated by this. But you see

370
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:15,639
Speaker 1: this with the Muller probe, with the way the press

371
00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:21,560
Speaker 1: badgers him about Russia stuff. His agitation at being unfairly maligned,

372
00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:24,160
Speaker 1: at being ambushed by people in all these different ways,

373
00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:30,879
Speaker 1: his agitation itself is considered evidence of some kind of

374
00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:34,880
Speaker 1: insidious behavior on his part. You know, he's a bad

375
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:36,920
Speaker 1: guy because he gets mad. Look, they did the same

376
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:40,359
Speaker 1: thing to Kavanaugh. I haven't forgotten that Kavanaugh got upset

377
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,080
Speaker 1: at women trying to lie about him and ruin his

378
00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 1: life and ruin his career and destroy him in front

379
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:48,639
Speaker 1: of his family, in front of tens of millions of

380
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:51,480
Speaker 1: Americans who were watching. And because he was upset at

381
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:56,000
Speaker 1: those lies, Oh, clearly he's guilty. I'm sorry, Innocent people

382
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,240
Speaker 1: that are accused of things they didn't commit get upset.

383
00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:01,919
Speaker 1: President Trump has become upset at many points along the

384
00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:06,440
Speaker 1: way because this whole thing, this whole Russia collusion storyline,

385
00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:08,560
Speaker 1: was a lie. And we know that We've known it

386
00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:11,440
Speaker 1: for a long time and the Muller probe has known

387
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:13,560
Speaker 1: it for a very long time. But they kept going,

388
00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:16,840
Speaker 1: they kept pushing. And now that he's talking to Putin,

389
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:18,399
Speaker 1: what's the same thing. Is he gonna tell him not

390
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:20,800
Speaker 1: to meddle the next election? Think of what a stupid,

391
00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:24,920
Speaker 1: a stupid commentary this really is on our press that

392
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:28,800
Speaker 1: they're did you tell him not to meddle? Would it

393
00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:32,560
Speaker 1: matter if he did? Putin denies that there was meddling,

394
00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:34,440
Speaker 1: or that he that he certainly denies that he ordered

395
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:38,159
Speaker 1: any Russian meddling in the election? You know, does it

396
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,720
Speaker 1: mean that he's not they wouldn't do it again because

397
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:44,200
Speaker 1: Trump says to him, don't do it. Come on, No,

398
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:46,480
Speaker 1: no one really thinks that, right. But this is also

399
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:50,040
Speaker 1: how the standard is always set so that Trump is

400
00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:53,600
Speaker 1: a Putin lackey no matter what he does, because he's

401
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:56,720
Speaker 1: not willing to spit in Putin's face and slap him.

402
00:23:56,800 --> 00:24:01,000
Speaker 1: They're saying that he's effectively doing Putin's bidding because he's

403
00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:05,760
Speaker 1: not willing to abandon any kind of relationship with a

404
00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:09,040
Speaker 1: head of state of a very important country that we

405
00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:13,160
Speaker 1: have no ability to just cordon off and ignore. They

406
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:15,439
Speaker 1: act like he's doing has bidden. This is this is

407
00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:17,080
Speaker 1: the game they play. This is why when he kind

408
00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:19,080
Speaker 1: of slaps them down a little bit, I appreciate what

409
00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:23,040
Speaker 1: he's doing. I get it. I think it's the right way.

410
00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:25,240
Speaker 1: And this is also when he when he defends himself.

411
00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:28,520
Speaker 1: I mean, I would agree he has been tougher on

412
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:32,600
Speaker 1: Russia than the Obama administration was, and any honest person

413
00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:37,520
Speaker 1: sees that play clip thirteen. I don't think I've spoken

414
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:39,760
Speaker 1: him about the twenty twenty, but I certainly have told

415
00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:43,280
Speaker 1: him you can't do what you're doing, and I don't

416
00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:45,280
Speaker 1: believe they will be. I don't believe they will. Have

417
00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:47,439
Speaker 1: you been very firm at the Russian president, So I

418
00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:49,560
Speaker 1: think I have been. I think nobody has done more

419
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:53,320
Speaker 1: about Russia than I have. President Obama in September before

420
00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:59,120
Speaker 1: the November election, my November election, if you look, he

421
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 1: was told by the f and others about Russia. He

422
00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:05,520
Speaker 1: did nothing about it. Done. Boy, he could have done something.

423
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:07,520
Speaker 1: I mean, he could have called out the troops and

424
00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 1: he could have said, let's look at this very closely.

425
00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:13,240
Speaker 1: He did absolutely nothing because he thought that crook and

426
00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:16,160
Speaker 1: Hillary was going to win the election. And she didn't

427
00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:19,359
Speaker 1: even come close. So it's just one of those things,

428
00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:21,200
Speaker 1: you know. And that had nothing to do, by the way,

429
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:24,520
Speaker 1: with Russia, because everybody said it didn't affect the vote.

430
00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:27,400
Speaker 1: You've heard that many times. Didn't affect the vote. But

431
00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:30,760
Speaker 1: I don't want Russia or anybody else playing around with

432
00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:39,000
Speaker 1: our elections. Trump is right. Trump is correct when he

433
00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:44,359
Speaker 1: says that the Obama administration made a political calculation to

434
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:48,760
Speaker 1: be silent about these Russian interference efforts because they thought

435
00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:51,280
Speaker 1: Hillary was going to win. I'm sorry that was you know,

436
00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:53,040
Speaker 1: that was the way the Democrats wanted to play it,

437
00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:59,080
Speaker 1: and the results are the results. That was Obama's call,

438
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:02,159
Speaker 1: and it was the right call at the time. I

439
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:04,879
Speaker 1: would know, because the Russian interference wasn't that important. They

440
00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:07,399
Speaker 1: knew it wasn't going to matter. They only pretended that

441
00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 1: it mattered when Hillary lost because they couldn't believe that

442
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:13,680
Speaker 1: Hillary would lose. You know, for for a whole slew

443
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:20,680
Speaker 1: of particularly feminist Democrat boomers, Hillary's loss is some kind

444
00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:24,160
Speaker 1: of a blow to their psyche from which they will

445
00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:27,359
Speaker 1: never recover. You know, they really thought that Hillary's elevation

446
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:29,560
Speaker 1: to president for eight years would be a kind of

447
00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:33,520
Speaker 1: return to the glories of the Clinton nineties and whatever

448
00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:37,080
Speaker 1: that means, and it would be the ultimate breaking through

449
00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:39,399
Speaker 1: of the glass ceiling and all this stuff. And you know,

450
00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:44,360
Speaker 1: the truth is that Hillary is a nasty, selfish, narcissistic,

451
00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:48,520
Speaker 1: crooked person, and Trump bested her and those who had

452
00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:51,080
Speaker 1: invested so much of their own identity and their sense

453
00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:55,399
Speaker 1: of their own worth and Hillary's coronation, you know, they

454
00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:59,080
Speaker 1: should learn not to look at politics that way. I mean,

455
00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,600
Speaker 1: they should understand. But we just want politicians who can

456
00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:03,680
Speaker 1: do a good job. We want politicians who follow the

457
00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:07,080
Speaker 1: Constitution and are competent in their roles. I'm not looking

458
00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:11,560
Speaker 1: for a politician who makes me feel like I'm more

459
00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:14,919
Speaker 1: you know, self actualized, like I'm becoming the person that

460
00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:16,680
Speaker 1: I've always been meant to be. Because this person is

461
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:20,920
Speaker 1: an office or something. People get way too invested personally

462
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:22,880
Speaker 1: and how this stuff goes. And that's A big part

463
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:26,000
Speaker 1: of Trump's arrangement syndrome is that Trump's defeat of Hillary

464
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 1: people feel like it's a rejection of how they view

465
00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:32,280
Speaker 1: themselves and the and the world that politics plays and

466
00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:38,240
Speaker 1: their own affirmation of self and their own awesomeness one

467
00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:42,080
Speaker 1: way or the other. But he's right about Russia, he's

468
00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:44,760
Speaker 1: right about how, you know, the media is being unfair

469
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:48,199
Speaker 1: to him and all this stuff. And I just I

470
00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:52,600
Speaker 1: just would like to see at some point a full

471
00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:58,480
Speaker 1: accounting for just how much the media, you know, people

472
00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:00,959
Speaker 1: will pull this together. There's data out there, but how

473
00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:03,560
Speaker 1: much the media really did pretend that the President United

474
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:05,360
Speaker 1: States committed treason and then we were going to find

475
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:07,640
Speaker 1: that out any day now, Because now that was the narrative,

476
00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 1: they can try to shift it as much as they

477
00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:14,119
Speaker 1: want now, you know, to that end about the the shifting,

478
00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:20,400
Speaker 1: shifty shift, about the shifting narrative on the spying issue.

479
00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:23,800
Speaker 1: We're gonna have Kim Strassel joining us here in a

480
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:25,359
Speaker 1: few minutes. She's been great. I mean, some of the

481
00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:31,160
Speaker 1: best voices and authors analysts on this whole spygate issue

482
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:36,520
Speaker 1: have been They're friends of mine, Andy McCarthy, Kim Strassel, Mayman,

483
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:41,360
Speaker 1: dam Bongino, Sean Davis over at the Federalist, Molly Hemingway

484
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:44,200
Speaker 1: over at the Federalist. You know, the Federalist has probably

485
00:28:44,440 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 1: done better work as a website on Spygate and munch

486
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 1: A collusion than any other one I can think of,

487
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:56,320
Speaker 1: and they've they've been right all along. But now we

488
00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:59,720
Speaker 1: have to get into what really happened in terms of

489
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:03,719
Speaker 1: the buying. And this is an area where I'm going

490
00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:06,160
Speaker 1: to try to weigh in pretty heavily because I know

491
00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:11,040
Speaker 1: the games that the Democrat left security state folks are

492
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:12,920
Speaker 1: going to try to play here. I know the kind

493
00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:15,840
Speaker 1: of stuff that they're going to say and the ways

494
00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:19,000
Speaker 1: that they're going to make it seem like what happened

495
00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:22,160
Speaker 1: here was not completely out of control. It was it

496
00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:26,240
Speaker 1: was out of control. It was wrong, it was deeply wrong.

497
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 1: And even the Vice President got in on it this

498
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:33,920
Speaker 1: week by saying, look, there's obviously stuff that went on

499
00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:39,760
Speaker 1: here that was really really a problem. Play Cliff twelve.

500
00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:42,959
Speaker 1: It's very offensive to me at a time when we

501
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:46,400
Speaker 1: were beginning the process of organizing our government nine days

502
00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:50,200
Speaker 1: after the election, these two disgraced FBI agents were actually

503
00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:54,959
Speaker 1: corresponding about sending a counterintelligence guy. I think that's what

504
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:59,120
Speaker 1: a CI guy is to my intelligence briefing. Well, we're

505
00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:01,920
Speaker 1: trying to form a while I'm getting briefed on everything

506
00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:04,800
Speaker 1: that's happening around the world, just as the President was.

507
00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:07,920
Speaker 1: So we're preparing to take the reins on January twenty fifth.

508
00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:12,040
Speaker 1: The American people aren't going to tolerate this. We put

509
00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:15,760
Speaker 1: out all the facts on the table, no collusion, no obstruction.

510
00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:18,160
Speaker 1: But now the American people have a right to know

511
00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:22,000
Speaker 1: how all this started and if the law was violated,

512
00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:27,400
Speaker 1: those people need to be held accountable. Absolutely, just thinking

513
00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:31,160
Speaker 1: what the Vice president said there though, step back for

514
00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:34,920
Speaker 1: a moment. The FBI wanted to put a spy in

515
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:39,480
Speaker 1: the Vice president's intelligence briefings to see if they could

516
00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:43,400
Speaker 1: figure out some way to get information about the collusion

517
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 1: that was fake, that didn't even happen to me. Does

518
00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:47,760
Speaker 1: the FBI? Is the FBI at the senior level? The

519
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:51,560
Speaker 1: people are they just incapable of embarrassment. That's a word

520
00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 1: we should hear. A lot more of the media should

521
00:30:54,080 --> 00:31:00,160
Speaker 1: be embarrassed by the spygate debacle that they perpetuated. The FBI,

522
00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:04,920
Speaker 1: the doj as institutions should be embarrassed about their role

523
00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:11,400
Speaker 1: in all of this, humiliated at their stupidity, ashamed of

524
00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:16,479
Speaker 1: their partisanship. Those aren't words, you hear. That's not Oh no, no.

525
00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:20,040
Speaker 1: They think that they were the guardians of the Republic.

526
00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:24,640
Speaker 1: They think they were doing great stuff for America. They've

527
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:26,360
Speaker 1: been right all along. I mean, they're still people who

528
00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:28,920
Speaker 1: are clinging to the Russia collusion narrative in these places.

529
00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:36,760
Speaker 1: It's astonishing. It's a total outrage buff people. A lot

530
00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:39,520
Speaker 1: of people believe what they want to believe. It doesn't

531
00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:41,720
Speaker 1: matter what facts you present them with. It doesn't matter

532
00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:47,000
Speaker 1: how damaging their delusions are. They would just rather cling

533
00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:49,480
Speaker 1: to them and feel safe and warm in their craziness.

534
00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:52,520
Speaker 1: That's where the Democratic Party is. Should the former vice

535
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:56,840
Speaker 1: president explain himself on his chealings in Ukraine and whether

536
00:31:56,880 --> 00:32:01,640
Speaker 1: there was Yeah, I hear, it's a very I'm hearing

537
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:05,840
Speaker 1: it's a major scandal, major problem. Very bad things happened,

538
00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:09,160
Speaker 1: and we'll see what that is. They even have him

539
00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:11,560
Speaker 1: on tape talking about it. They have Joe Biden on

540
00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:14,040
Speaker 1: tape talking about the prosecutor, and I've seen that tape.

541
00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:16,960
Speaker 1: A lot of people are talking about that, but that's

542
00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:21,400
Speaker 1: up for them. They have to solve that problem. Biden

543
00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:24,720
Speaker 1: is not going to last as the Democrat front runner.

544
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:26,080
Speaker 1: I've been telling you that for a long time. I

545
00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 1: feel very confident in this prediction. And if Biden is

546
00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:32,520
Speaker 1: their nominee, Trump is going to win by an even

547
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:36,760
Speaker 1: wider margin than he beat Hillary Clinton. Though those are

548
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:38,480
Speaker 1: my week we can mark this one down. That is

549
00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:41,320
Speaker 1: my prediction for you from the very beginning. If Biden

550
00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:44,400
Speaker 1: is their nominee, not only will Trump win, he will

551
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:49,400
Speaker 1: increase his margin of victory from twenty sixteen in terms

552
00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:53,719
Speaker 1: of the electoral college. Biden's got some issues and actually,

553
00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:56,960
Speaker 1: my colleague at the Hill, John Solomon, has been a

554
00:32:57,120 --> 00:33:01,080
Speaker 1: thorn in Biden's side doing some stigated reporting on this.

555
00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:05,240
Speaker 1: The basics of the story our as follows that that

556
00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:10,000
Speaker 1: Biden may have fired a prosecutor or, sorry, Biden may

557
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:14,120
Speaker 1: have used pressure over a US loan guarantee to the

558
00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:17,800
Speaker 1: government of Ukraine to get them to fire a corruption

559
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:22,640
Speaker 1: prosecutor who was looking at a company in Ukraine that

560
00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:29,440
Speaker 1: was making some big payoffs to Biden's son in you know,

561
00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:35,720
Speaker 1: for consultant. This would be a possible violation of a

562
00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:37,960
Speaker 1: whole bunch of things I think foreign corrupt practices maybe.

563
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:40,080
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, if nothing else, it's just corruption,

564
00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:43,560
Speaker 1: and it's just outright, you know, talking about now you're

565
00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:46,200
Speaker 1: meddling in a foreign country for the benefit of yourself

566
00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:48,680
Speaker 1: or your family and using the powers of your office

567
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:50,440
Speaker 1: to do so. In the United States government, that's a

568
00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:54,080
Speaker 1: big no no. So that's a problem that Biden's going

569
00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:55,520
Speaker 1: to have to deal with and explain. Am I And

570
00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:58,120
Speaker 1: from what I'm told, and I worked with John Solomon

571
00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:01,920
Speaker 1: every day, they've got the documentation. I mean, they've already

572
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:05,760
Speaker 1: got on the record. A senior law I think it's

573
00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:08,120
Speaker 1: the equivalent of the Attorney General in Ukraine has said, yeah,

574
00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:12,040
Speaker 1: this is this is real. The payments were made and

575
00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:16,520
Speaker 1: this guy was fired. And at one point Biden bragged

576
00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:21,440
Speaker 1: at a Council on Foreign Relations meeting CFR the Illuminati,

577
00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:25,160
Speaker 1: you know, Council on Foreign Relations. They he bragged about

578
00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:30,160
Speaker 1: how he got this prosecutor corrupted prosecutor fired. So they're

579
00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:32,279
Speaker 1: going to be some issues there. The other story that

580
00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:36,040
Speaker 1: Sean actually broke yesterday though, had to do with someone

581
00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:40,080
Speaker 1: who is tied to the DNC asking for the Ukrainian

582
00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:45,120
Speaker 1: government to give dirt on Paul Manafort. You know, given

583
00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:48,320
Speaker 1: everything that we have been told, everything that has been

584
00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:52,399
Speaker 1: said about, Oh, how could you sit with somebody who

585
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:54,960
Speaker 1: is Russian? They always played games with the two. They

586
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:57,520
Speaker 1: say that they say that Vezlnitzky at the Trump Tower

587
00:34:57,560 --> 00:35:00,239
Speaker 1: meeting was the Russian government. That's not true. She has

588
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:02,160
Speaker 1: tied the Russian government. But she was just a Russian

589
00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:05,720
Speaker 1: lady who said that she had information about Hillary. And

590
00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:10,040
Speaker 1: you know what if she said that she had information,

591
00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:13,160
Speaker 1: what if she was for real and had information about

592
00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:16,680
Speaker 1: how Hillary Clinton had received a ten million dollar wire

593
00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:21,040
Speaker 1: transfer to you know, do some favor for the Russian

594
00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:22,960
Speaker 1: government when she was Secretary of State. What if that

595
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:26,000
Speaker 1: were would we not want the information to get out? Then?

596
00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:29,080
Speaker 1: Should they not have taken that meeting? This is stupid

597
00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:31,040
Speaker 1: point people, michic Oh, they should have never taken the meeting.

598
00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:36,680
Speaker 1: Called the FBI. That's bull that's revisionist nonsense. But John

599
00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:43,840
Speaker 1: broke this story where it was, you know the basics

600
00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:46,640
Speaker 1: of it, or that somebody tied to the DNC was

601
00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:55,560
Speaker 1: asking the Ukrainian government for dirt on Paul Manafort. Well,

602
00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:59,040
Speaker 1: that's a foreign government, folks, and you're asking for opposition

603
00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:03,320
Speaker 1: research from that foreign government on behalf of the Hillary campaign.

604
00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:10,040
Speaker 1: That's collusion with the foreign government, isn't it. They were asking.

605
00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:14,800
Speaker 1: I think it was the embassy, the embassy Ukrainian embassy.

606
00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:19,160
Speaker 1: This is a problem. Christopher Steele was a foreigner. He

607
00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:21,839
Speaker 1: was using Russian subsources. All that's all foreign that's all

608
00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:24,279
Speaker 1: foreign interference the election. That's on that's on record, that's

609
00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:29,839
Speaker 1: a fact. Clinton campaign folks paid and the DNC paid

610
00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:31,719
Speaker 1: for that information. That doesn't make it better, that makes

611
00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:37,719
Speaker 1: it worse. If anything, the only real collusion with foreigners

612
00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:41,920
Speaker 1: in the election involved the Hillary Clinton campaign and of

613
00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:44,600
Speaker 1: course their media lackeys. But we're not allowed to talk

614
00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:48,200
Speaker 1: about that. I'm not supposed to see that. Kim STRASSEO

615
00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:50,760
Speaker 1: coming up. Everybody stayed with me, How did this whole

616
00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:54,640
Speaker 1: investigation suck? Because I think it's corrupt as hell, and

617
00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:59,240
Speaker 1: I think what's happened between Come and NCABE and Brennan

618
00:36:59,560 --> 00:37:02,440
Speaker 1: and all of these people. If you take Director Comy

619
00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:05,440
Speaker 1: out of the equation and his actions in twenty sixteen

620
00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:09,560
Speaker 1: and seventeen, would the country be where it is today.

621
00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:13,200
Speaker 1: I think that he did a terrible job. I would

622
00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:16,440
Speaker 1: say he probably led some kind of an effort. The

623
00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:19,480
Speaker 1: words spying has been used. He probably was one of

624
00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:23,239
Speaker 1: the people leading the effort on spying. So it's a

625
00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:25,600
Speaker 1: very serious church to me, I know. And we'll find

626
00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:27,719
Speaker 1: out whether or not it was true, and I think

627
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:30,239
Speaker 1: it could very well be true. But we're going to

628
00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:33,799
Speaker 1: find out pretty soon. Somebody was leading the effort on

629
00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:38,400
Speaker 1: spying because there was definitely spying, and somebody used to

630
00:37:38,400 --> 00:37:40,200
Speaker 1: work for a spying agency. I feel like I should

631
00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:43,319
Speaker 1: at least be able to define that. But what's with

632
00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:49,279
Speaker 1: all the venom directed at Attorney General William Barr. We've

633
00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:52,319
Speaker 1: got Kim Strassell joining us now. She is on the

634
00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:54,919
Speaker 1: Wall Street Journal editorial board. He's got a great piece

635
00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:57,600
Speaker 1: up with the Journal right now for fear of William Barr,

636
00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:01,640
Speaker 1: the Attorney General gets attacked because his pro endangers many

637
00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:04,680
Speaker 1: powerful people. Kim, great to have you back, but it's

638
00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:10,280
Speaker 1: great to be here. Who is Bill Barr endangering? What's

639
00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:14,920
Speaker 1: gotten these folks so on edge? Kim, Well, it's clearly

640
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:17,120
Speaker 1: nothing to do with the Muller report, because if you

641
00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:19,799
Speaker 1: watched that hearing on Wednesday in front of the Senate

642
00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:24,680
Speaker 1: Judiciary Committee, we barely talked about aspects of the Muller Report.

643
00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:26,920
Speaker 1: A lot of it was just a back and forth

644
00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:33,279
Speaker 1: over his original assessment of it, and I think that

645
00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:38,440
Speaker 1: what's going on here is that instead they were focused

646
00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:40,960
Speaker 1: and they heard him say during that hearing that he

647
00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:44,120
Speaker 1: intends to take a very close look at everything that's

648
00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:46,920
Speaker 1: happening in twenty sixteen, and a lot of people are

649
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:50,279
Speaker 1: at risk when he goes down that road of what

650
00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:52,680
Speaker 1: the FBI was up to, whether or not there was

651
00:38:52,719 --> 00:38:56,680
Speaker 1: an actual predicate for the spying that went on, whether

652
00:38:56,760 --> 00:38:58,879
Speaker 1: or not they handled their sources the right way, whether

653
00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:01,600
Speaker 1: or not they should have used that in dossier. A

654
00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:03,319
Speaker 1: lot of people have a lot of things at risk.

655
00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:08,120
Speaker 1: And the revelation this week about putting a I love

656
00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:10,440
Speaker 1: the way that they described it. It It was an FBI

657
00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:15,600
Speaker 1: human investigator or something. It was a very specific terminology

658
00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:19,440
Speaker 1: the New York John's UD spy anymore but not now. Yeah,

659
00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:23,200
Speaker 1: it's never spying, it's never, it's it's surreptitious surveillance. That's

660
00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:26,680
Speaker 1: just ohso on the straight and narrow. But that that

661
00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:31,759
Speaker 1: the po that Papadopoulos had someone who was essentially I

662
00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:33,920
Speaker 1: mean the way the way And we had George on

663
00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:36,360
Speaker 1: the show last week for an hour. He said that

664
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:40,040
Speaker 1: she was, if not a what you would call a

665
00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:42,799
Speaker 1: a honeypot, something kind of close to it. He said

666
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:45,720
Speaker 1: that she was very clearly trying to entice him into

667
00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:50,480
Speaker 1: giving certain information that seems like very strange behavior for

668
00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:54,520
Speaker 1: somebody who's working for the FBI and just trying to

669
00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:56,640
Speaker 1: get the lay of the land about whether there is

670
00:39:56,640 --> 00:40:00,480
Speaker 1: a massive international conspiracy to throw an alleg I mean,

671
00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:01,759
Speaker 1: what do you make of that? Well, I mean of

672
00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:04,799
Speaker 1: that New York Times piece. Well, look, I think the

673
00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:09,200
Speaker 1: word that we're hearing more and more that should alarm everybody.

674
00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:11,120
Speaker 1: And we don't know if it's true yet. And I

675
00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:13,000
Speaker 1: want to say that, but you know, the word we

676
00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:16,839
Speaker 1: keep hearing now is entrapment. And you know, you you

677
00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:19,640
Speaker 1: were in an agency that worked There's always a fine

678
00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:23,040
Speaker 1: line between trying to get people to give you information

679
00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:26,600
Speaker 1: and then somehow trying to track them into saying something

680
00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:29,920
Speaker 1: that can later be used against them. And I know

681
00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:32,319
Speaker 1: that I certainly have a lot of concerns about the way,

682
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:34,879
Speaker 1: For instance, the FBI ended up going and having their

683
00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:39,239
Speaker 1: little chat with General Michael Flynn not really making him

684
00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:43,120
Speaker 1: aware of their purpose. They're not informing him that they'd

685
00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:47,759
Speaker 1: already read a transcript of his conversation, and essentially not

686
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:50,479
Speaker 1: giving not warning him that it's a crime to lie

687
00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:53,880
Speaker 1: to them, not having him with an attorney. It seems

688
00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:56,080
Speaker 1: in retrospect it was very much set up to be

689
00:40:56,120 --> 00:40:58,680
Speaker 1: a process in which they caught him in a lie.

690
00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:01,560
Speaker 1: And I think, you know, we should be asking the

691
00:41:01,600 --> 00:41:04,840
Speaker 1: same questions in terms of what has happened with Papadopolis

692
00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:07,240
Speaker 1: and some of the other people that the quote human

693
00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:10,239
Speaker 1: intelligence or informants or whatever we want to call them

694
00:41:10,239 --> 00:41:13,120
Speaker 1: these days we're doing with some of the other Trump

695
00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:18,719
Speaker 1: campaign members, including Page, including Sam Clovis, and how far

696
00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:21,480
Speaker 1: back by the way they were interacting with these people.

697
00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:23,840
Speaker 1: We also don't even have the answer to that question.

698
00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:27,600
Speaker 1: Have we ever gotten a satisfactory answer from anyone, Kim

699
00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:33,680
Speaker 1: about why it was that the Obama administration senior figures

700
00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:39,040
Speaker 1: in this whole drama come and others among them didn't

701
00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:42,560
Speaker 1: think it was necessary or sound practice to tell the

702
00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:46,520
Speaker 1: Trump campaign. I mean, you know, George Papadopolis wasn't running

703
00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:49,160
Speaker 1: the show. No one thinks that George Papadopolis was some

704
00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:52,960
Speaker 1: huge deal in the Trump campaign. So unless they were

705
00:41:52,960 --> 00:41:56,080
Speaker 1: acting under the assumption that we have no idea why

706
00:41:56,080 --> 00:42:00,000
Speaker 1: they would be that Papadopolis with this whole Russia email

707
00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:02,920
Speaker 1: al hack that didn't happen. But that's the basis of

708
00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:06,760
Speaker 1: their story. Unless they believe that Trump or essentially somebody

709
00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:09,759
Speaker 1: right in his inner circle, directed Papadoppolus to do this.

710
00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:13,239
Speaker 1: Why not brief them? Why not tell the campaign? You know,

711
00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:15,560
Speaker 1: you got a guy that's doing some freelance and it

712
00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:19,319
Speaker 1: could get you guys into trouble. There's some Russian penetration efforts. Well,

713
00:42:19,360 --> 00:42:21,840
Speaker 1: you put your finger on a huge and important issue,

714
00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:24,759
Speaker 1: which is that the FBI story has never added up

715
00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:28,439
Speaker 1: right by its own words. So Comy has always been

716
00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:32,239
Speaker 1: very careful to say, well, from the start, we were

717
00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:36,440
Speaker 1: always looking at individuals associated with the Trump campaign, not

718
00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:39,279
Speaker 1: the campaign itself. Well, you go and you look at

719
00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:41,400
Speaker 1: the names of those individuals, and we know who some

720
00:42:41,440 --> 00:42:45,880
Speaker 1: of them were, Carter Page, for instance, George Papadopoulos. It

721
00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:49,400
Speaker 1: wasn't until later Paul Manafort was brought on, but we

722
00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:53,360
Speaker 1: know that they were on their radar screen very early on. Okay,

723
00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:56,759
Speaker 1: because according to the House Intelligence memo that came up

724
00:42:57,040 --> 00:42:59,760
Speaker 1: all the way back in spring, at some point Comey

725
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:04,359
Speaker 1: greeked the National Security Council's principal members on concerns they

726
00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:07,760
Speaker 1: had at least with Carter Page. So if that's case,

727
00:43:07,840 --> 00:43:10,440
Speaker 1: and these folks have only just joined the campaign and

728
00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:13,319
Speaker 1: you're only looking at isolated folks and a couple of them,

729
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:16,640
Speaker 1: as you mentioned, have no real authority, why would you

730
00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:20,319
Speaker 1: not immediately go to the attorneys that we're working at

731
00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:25,080
Speaker 1: the Trump campaigns, former prosecutors like Rudy Giuliani or Chris Christie,

732
00:43:25,160 --> 00:43:28,239
Speaker 1: and say, look, we know the Russians are attempting to

733
00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:32,040
Speaker 1: infiltrate our politics. You got a couple of guys here

734
00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:34,799
Speaker 1: that we're concerned about. The only reason I can think

735
00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:36,920
Speaker 1: of that they wouldn't do that, and you just mentioned

736
00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:39,920
Speaker 1: it is because they never were honest and they were

737
00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:44,640
Speaker 1: always evaluating the entire Trump campaign from the start. Kim,

738
00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:47,680
Speaker 1: do you have a working theory about how this whole

739
00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:53,720
Speaker 1: thing that the underlying foundational conspiracy theory about the Trump

740
00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:59,160
Speaker 1: campaign working with Russia to subvert the election? I mean,

741
00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:01,160
Speaker 1: that's which is what all this was about for two years.

742
00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:04,360
Speaker 1: And know now we're supposed to par substruction that also

743
00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:07,520
Speaker 1: didn't happen, but maybe theoretically could have happened, if things

744
00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:09,680
Speaker 1: had been different, and they're very upset about this, But

745
00:44:10,040 --> 00:44:12,719
Speaker 1: do you have a working theory about or even just

746
00:44:12,920 --> 00:44:15,680
Speaker 1: some questions that if you get answers to, you think

747
00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:20,319
Speaker 1: you'll know how this whole thing got started. I don't

748
00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:23,280
Speaker 1: know if we'll ever know exactly how it got started,

749
00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:27,840
Speaker 1: because unfortunately the FBI has been so cajun Also because

750
00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:30,359
Speaker 1: my working theory on how it got started has more

751
00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:33,239
Speaker 1: to do with kind of I think feelings than it

752
00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:37,239
Speaker 1: does with evidence. People get asked me all the time,

753
00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:40,040
Speaker 1: do you think this was partisan? Right? And I don't

754
00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:42,960
Speaker 1: in regard that, I don't in the technical term of

755
00:44:42,960 --> 00:44:46,200
Speaker 1: that word right. So when someone's partisan, it means that

756
00:44:46,239 --> 00:44:49,080
Speaker 1: they don't like to certain you know, they only like

757
00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:53,440
Speaker 1: one parties or one candidates views on things. And I

758
00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:56,600
Speaker 1: do not believe that Jim Comey and Andy McCabe sat

759
00:44:56,640 --> 00:44:59,279
Speaker 1: around it said we hate Republican tax policy and so

760
00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:02,040
Speaker 1: we're going to try to take out the Republican nominee. Right.

761
00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:05,319
Speaker 1: But what I do think is it is impossible not

762
00:45:05,480 --> 00:45:10,320
Speaker 1: to believe, especially given the incredible loathing that Jim Comey

763
00:45:10,640 --> 00:45:14,399
Speaker 1: has expressed for Trump ever since he was fired. That

764
00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:18,000
Speaker 1: didn't come about overnight and I think that basically Jim

765
00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:20,279
Speaker 1: Comey all the way in the beginning had a case

766
00:45:20,320 --> 00:45:23,719
Speaker 1: of Trump derangement syndrome, and he just couldn't stand this guy.

767
00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:26,239
Speaker 1: And we know he was incredibly arrogant, and we knew

768
00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:28,160
Speaker 1: he was used to breaking all the rules, and he

769
00:45:28,239 --> 00:45:30,640
Speaker 1: figured he'd saved the country from this. And that's how

770
00:45:31,040 --> 00:45:33,719
Speaker 1: you start out by looking at some individual members who

771
00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:35,920
Speaker 1: had been on the FBI's radar screen in the past,

772
00:45:36,040 --> 00:45:38,520
Speaker 1: like Carter Page, and then you go into a full

773
00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:42,560
Speaker 1: blown counter intelligence investigation. What about what's your take on

774
00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:45,280
Speaker 1: Sally Yates in this whole thing. I've always been somebody

775
00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:48,359
Speaker 1: who feels like she had she appeared at some very

776
00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:52,560
Speaker 1: key moments and has had a very easy pass, certainly

777
00:45:52,600 --> 00:45:55,000
Speaker 1: from the media. You know, her whole use of the

778
00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:59,360
Speaker 1: Logan Act, and this pretense that Flynn was going to

779
00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:02,400
Speaker 1: be black mailable because he had lied to the Vice president,

780
00:46:02,440 --> 00:46:04,799
Speaker 1: as though the Russians could say, give us all your

781
00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:07,720
Speaker 1: secrets or else we'll tell the vice president you lied

782
00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:10,640
Speaker 1: to him. And then a general of thirty years experience

783
00:46:10,680 --> 00:46:13,319
Speaker 1: would say, oh, yeah, I'll bend to the Russians on

784
00:46:13,360 --> 00:46:15,120
Speaker 1: this because it's so scary to have lied to it.

785
00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:20,000
Speaker 1: It didn't make sense. The blackmail theory she had the

786
00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:23,000
Speaker 1: Logan Act was clearly pretextual I and that's laughable to

787
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:26,960
Speaker 1: anybody who takes any of this stuff seriously. What do

788
00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:29,160
Speaker 1: you think about Yates and all of this. I've always

789
00:46:29,200 --> 00:46:31,359
Speaker 1: felt like we're gonna that at some point there'll be

790
00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:33,160
Speaker 1: more that comes out on her. But maybe that's just

791
00:46:33,239 --> 00:46:36,400
Speaker 1: my gut leading me further than it should. So I

792
00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:38,960
Speaker 1: think everything you need to know about Sally Yates as

793
00:46:38,960 --> 00:46:41,480
Speaker 1: a bad actor you can get by reviewing the way

794
00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:44,160
Speaker 1: in which she was fired, and that she was given

795
00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:47,440
Speaker 1: an executive order by the President to do with immigration

796
00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:49,759
Speaker 1: and she refused to implement it. And that's not how

797
00:46:49,840 --> 00:46:54,040
Speaker 1: you behave when you're an appointed member of the government

798
00:46:54,120 --> 00:46:56,440
Speaker 1: working for the chief executive. If you don't agree with

799
00:46:56,480 --> 00:46:59,640
Speaker 1: an order, you resign, but you don't resist from your

800
00:46:59,640 --> 00:47:03,200
Speaker 1: public office. And that is essentially what she was doing

801
00:47:03,239 --> 00:47:05,400
Speaker 1: with the logan At claims you brought up, that the

802
00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:09,920
Speaker 1: spurious blackmail claims you brought up. She was undoubtedly integral

803
00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:12,839
Speaker 1: in that FBI meeting I mentioned earlier in terms of

804
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:17,640
Speaker 1: entrapping General Flynn an a lie question, But I think

805
00:47:17,680 --> 00:47:20,200
Speaker 1: if you go back. Look, one of the big questions

806
00:47:20,239 --> 00:47:22,719
Speaker 1: here that we're probably going to get some answers on

807
00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:25,880
Speaker 1: from either bar or from the Inspector General when it

808
00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:27,760
Speaker 1: comes out with as a report is to the extent

809
00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:31,280
Speaker 1: that the White House and other senior people were involved

810
00:47:31,320 --> 00:47:34,240
Speaker 1: in all of this from a political perspective from the start.

811
00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:37,760
Speaker 1: And you know, look, Sally Yate says at the Department

812
00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:40,080
Speaker 1: of Justice would have been more read in than most people,

813
00:47:40,239 --> 00:47:43,239
Speaker 1: and we have not, really, you are correct, heard what

814
00:47:43,360 --> 00:47:46,880
Speaker 1: decisions she was making along the way and the degree

815
00:47:46,920 --> 00:47:50,240
Speaker 1: to which she was being notified, and she was making calls,

816
00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:53,200
Speaker 1: and that's going to I will not be surprised one

817
00:47:53,239 --> 00:47:57,320
Speaker 1: bit if she's very central to this narrative by the end, Keamy,

818
00:47:57,320 --> 00:48:01,080
Speaker 1: before let you go, what do you think Obama new? Well, look,

819
00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:05,000
Speaker 1: you know, go back. I mentioned this meeting that Jim

820
00:48:05,040 --> 00:48:09,480
Speaker 1: call Me had with National Security Council principles all the

821
00:48:09,520 --> 00:48:11,560
Speaker 1: way back in the spring. Well, one of those principles

822
00:48:11,640 --> 00:48:14,360
Speaker 1: was Barack Obama. So it's Joe Biden. I mean, basically,

823
00:48:14,400 --> 00:48:18,000
Speaker 1: what that means is that from the very start, Jim

824
00:48:18,040 --> 00:48:21,320
Speaker 1: call Me had briefed the White House the senior members

825
00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:25,440
Speaker 1: there that the FBI had eyes on Trump and Russia,

826
00:48:25,560 --> 00:48:27,920
Speaker 1: and you know, I find it very hard to believe

827
00:48:28,120 --> 00:48:30,279
Speaker 1: that at that from that moment on on that the

828
00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:35,040
Speaker 1: Obama White House neither interacted with that anymore nor didn't

829
00:48:35,080 --> 00:48:38,040
Speaker 1: pass that information onto yet other people. And I think

830
00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:40,200
Speaker 1: that's a very concerning thing. Jim call me likes to

831
00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:43,600
Speaker 1: present himself as this guy who doesn't get engaged in politics,

832
00:48:43,719 --> 00:48:46,640
Speaker 1: keeps his distance from presidents in the White House. That's

833
00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:49,319
Speaker 1: that's clearly not the case, and it's it's another case

834
00:48:49,400 --> 00:48:53,799
Speaker 1: of Jim come playing ropa dope with the facts. Kim

835
00:48:53,840 --> 00:48:56,480
Speaker 1: Strassel everybody for fear of William Barr's or piece right

836
00:48:56,480 --> 00:48:58,040
Speaker 1: now up in the Wall Street Journal where she's on

837
00:48:58,040 --> 00:49:00,920
Speaker 1: the editorial board. Kim, thanks much for joining us. As

838
00:49:00,920 --> 00:49:02,880
Speaker 1: always great to talk to you have a fantastic weekend.

839
00:49:04,560 --> 00:49:08,640
Speaker 1: I mean, this is standard operating procedure for any FBI investigation,

840
00:49:08,760 --> 00:49:12,800
Speaker 1: undercover operations, the use of informants. These are investigative tools

841
00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:15,880
Speaker 1: that help the FBI go places that they cannot go themselves.

842
00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:18,160
Speaker 1: An FBI agent trying to get to the bottom of

843
00:49:18,560 --> 00:49:21,120
Speaker 1: a string of bank robberies, for example, or a terrorist group,

844
00:49:21,160 --> 00:49:23,920
Speaker 1: and yes, even a campaign for president that has you know,

845
00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:26,959
Speaker 1: these suspicious ties to a foreign adversary. An FBI agent

846
00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:29,640
Speaker 1: can't just announce themselves and start asking questions. So you're

847
00:49:29,640 --> 00:49:32,280
Speaker 1: going to use these tools that help again, the FBI

848
00:49:32,320 --> 00:49:34,560
Speaker 1: go where it can't go on its own. It's important

849
00:49:34,560 --> 00:49:36,400
Speaker 1: to point out and I've heard the President, you know,

850
00:49:36,400 --> 00:49:39,200
Speaker 1: this morning. He's already tweeting about it, but he's calling

851
00:49:39,200 --> 00:49:41,600
Speaker 1: the spying, and his allies will say this is abuse.

852
00:49:41,880 --> 00:49:45,400
Speaker 1: These types of operations are highly scrutinized inside the Justice Department,

853
00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:47,920
Speaker 1: and there's oversight, so you know this will be what

854
00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:49,799
Speaker 1: we're going to see politics come out of this. It's

855
00:49:49,840 --> 00:49:51,560
Speaker 1: important to keep that in mind. These are tools the

856
00:49:51,560 --> 00:49:55,640
Speaker 1: FBI uses every single day. Okay, let's pull apart the

857
00:49:55,719 --> 00:49:59,480
Speaker 1: nonsense here. That's James Coombe secretary, former secretary or not

858
00:49:59,520 --> 00:50:01,480
Speaker 1: really a sec terry, but he's like an errand boy

859
00:50:01,480 --> 00:50:05,319
Speaker 1: for call me at the FBI seeing your supervisory something

860
00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:10,240
Speaker 1: or other. He's he's a CNN's FBI pajama boy, and

861
00:50:10,800 --> 00:50:12,719
Speaker 1: you know he's there. He's run an interference for the

862
00:50:12,800 --> 00:50:14,840
Speaker 1: narrative here, right, what's the narrative? All the narrative is

863
00:50:14,880 --> 00:50:16,840
Speaker 1: that it wasn't spying. It was totally legit. Okay, A

864
00:50:16,920 --> 00:50:19,520
Speaker 1: few thinks here at Chief, A few thinks here for

865
00:50:19,680 --> 00:50:23,880
Speaker 1: my former national security colleague over at the f the

866
00:50:24,040 --> 00:50:29,960
Speaker 1: f mister, THEO you needed a miracle, I bring you

867
00:50:30,080 --> 00:50:39,399
Speaker 1: the FBI. That the FBI does something does not make

868
00:50:39,440 --> 00:50:43,920
Speaker 1: it de facto justified. That the FBI uses its discretion

869
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:47,640
Speaker 1: to open an investigate investigation in a certain way does

870
00:50:47,640 --> 00:50:51,399
Speaker 1: not indicate that the investigation was properly handled. And people

871
00:50:51,400 --> 00:50:53,400
Speaker 1: that keep saying there's a process as a process as

872
00:50:53,400 --> 00:50:57,680
Speaker 1: a process fail to understand that we know there's a process.

873
00:50:57,920 --> 00:51:03,560
Speaker 1: The problem is it was abused. The problem is that

874
00:51:04,080 --> 00:51:06,880
Speaker 1: if you have people who are acting in bad faith

875
00:51:06,960 --> 00:51:12,040
Speaker 1: for partisan reasons in places like the FBI, there is

876
00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:20,160
Speaker 1: plenty of leeway, plenty of discretion to engage in underhanded

877
00:51:20,280 --> 00:51:25,359
Speaker 1: dirty politics. And that is quite obviously what went down here,

878
00:51:25,400 --> 00:51:28,960
Speaker 1: my friends, just a question of how much, where, when who?

879
00:51:29,480 --> 00:51:33,080
Speaker 1: We know it happened though, And to say that there's oversight, no,

880
00:51:33,200 --> 00:51:37,560
Speaker 1: there's not for counterintelligence investigations. That's why they ran this

881
00:51:37,680 --> 00:51:41,680
Speaker 1: as a counterintelligence investigation. Why wasn't this done as a

882
00:51:41,760 --> 00:51:45,840
Speaker 1: more standard criminal investigation. No, they wanted to keep it

883
00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:48,440
Speaker 1: under the auspices of a counterintelligence investigation. That's why they

884
00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:53,840
Speaker 1: went the fives are out because there they have a

885
00:51:54,160 --> 00:51:58,160
Speaker 1: very different Essentially, the standard for a counter intelligence investigation

886
00:51:58,360 --> 00:52:01,480
Speaker 1: is whatever that someone at the f b I thinks

887
00:52:01,640 --> 00:52:05,279
Speaker 1: is a national security concern worthy of a counterintelligence investigation,

888
00:52:06,040 --> 00:52:08,279
Speaker 1: and it can all be kept secret. It all goes

889
00:52:08,280 --> 00:52:11,600
Speaker 1: to defies the court. And remember, if Hilary had won,

890
00:52:12,040 --> 00:52:15,680
Speaker 1: we would never have found out about any of this.

891
00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:20,680
Speaker 1: And that's just on the process side. When you add

892
00:52:20,719 --> 00:52:27,160
Speaker 1: into it, this was a presidential campaign advisor. This was

893
00:52:27,239 --> 00:52:30,880
Speaker 1: somebody you know we worry about. I mean when I

894
00:52:30,920 --> 00:52:35,040
Speaker 1: was the NYPD and the Intel Division, we used to

895
00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:40,840
Speaker 1: have to justify any kind of surveillance or any collection

896
00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:44,279
Speaker 1: that we had that touched on anyone's First Amendment rights

897
00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:46,840
Speaker 1: because we're so concerned about the chilling effect, right, and

898
00:52:46,880 --> 00:52:49,200
Speaker 1: there's all this, oh we kind of law enforce in

899
00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:53,200
Speaker 1: spying on people for their lawful religious assembly and all this.

900
00:52:54,040 --> 00:52:55,480
Speaker 1: You know, there are all these hoops you have to

901
00:52:55,560 --> 00:52:58,279
Speaker 1: jump through to protect peoples civil rights. Apparently the FBI,

902
00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:01,399
Speaker 1: if you run a counter intelligence vestigation, you knew whatever

903
00:53:01,440 --> 00:53:03,759
Speaker 1: you want and they say, oh, yeah, I think this

904
00:53:03,800 --> 00:53:05,880
Speaker 1: guy talked to a Chinese guy who might be a

905
00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:09,480
Speaker 1: Chinese intelligence official or something. So I'm just gonna download

906
00:53:09,480 --> 00:53:10,920
Speaker 1: all of his emails and listen to all of his

907
00:53:10,960 --> 00:53:13,680
Speaker 1: phone calls because the FISA court it's just gonna rubber

908
00:53:13,680 --> 00:53:16,440
Speaker 1: stamp whatever I say. But we see, here's the abuse

909
00:53:16,520 --> 00:53:19,120
Speaker 1: of FISA and the problem with FISA that some people

910
00:53:19,120 --> 00:53:21,480
Speaker 1: have recognized all along. It's not just FISA, by the way,

911
00:53:21,520 --> 00:53:26,080
Speaker 1: it's just the FBI counterintelligence process, and the problem has

912
00:53:26,080 --> 00:53:28,240
Speaker 1: been that it requires people to be acting in good faith.

913
00:53:29,400 --> 00:53:31,800
Speaker 1: You give people power in government, you better hope that

914
00:53:31,840 --> 00:53:36,840
Speaker 1: they're using it appropriately because otherwise, well you see what happens.

915
00:53:37,640 --> 00:53:40,440
Speaker 1: They did not use it appropriately. This was not done

916
00:53:40,520 --> 00:53:44,000
Speaker 1: in good faith. These are individuals we're talking about here

917
00:53:44,480 --> 00:53:51,160
Speaker 1: who exploited their government authority for partisan gain. And you

918
00:53:51,200 --> 00:53:53,440
Speaker 1: can say, well, buck where they weren't necessarily Democrats. Yeah,

919
00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:56,440
Speaker 1: but they're anti Trump. There's an anti Trump partisanship that's

920
00:53:56,480 --> 00:53:59,799
Speaker 1: at the at the heart of this. And they're also

921
00:54:00,280 --> 00:54:03,720
Speaker 1: it desperately avoid the usage of the term spying because

922
00:54:04,600 --> 00:54:07,360
Speaker 1: when it really hits home with people spying on the

923
00:54:07,400 --> 00:54:11,560
Speaker 1: Trump campaign, that is what happened, that is clearly nefarious.

924
00:54:12,600 --> 00:54:18,200
Speaker 1: That does bring about a public understanding of just how

925
00:54:18,400 --> 00:54:25,160
Speaker 1: severe a transgression this was. And Bill Barr is going

926
00:54:25,200 --> 00:54:27,800
Speaker 1: to get to the bottom of this. Bill Barr is

927
00:54:27,800 --> 00:54:31,080
Speaker 1: going to be the most important person that President Trump

928
00:54:31,120 --> 00:54:34,640
Speaker 1: has ever appointed to any office. You watch and see

929
00:54:35,360 --> 00:54:38,120
Speaker 1: a lot of the policies that we have put in

930
00:54:38,239 --> 00:54:43,799
Speaker 1: place has kind of helped lead the devastation in Venezuela,

931
00:54:44,080 --> 00:54:47,879
Speaker 1: and we've sort of set the stage for where we

932
00:54:47,880 --> 00:54:53,560
Speaker 1: are arriving today. This particular bullying and the use of

933
00:54:54,000 --> 00:55:02,399
Speaker 1: sanctions to eventually intervene and make whichem change really does

934
00:55:02,480 --> 00:55:06,160
Speaker 1: not help the people of countries like Venezuela, and it

935
00:55:06,320 --> 00:55:09,320
Speaker 1: certainly does not help, and it's not in the interest

936
00:55:09,400 --> 00:55:12,440
Speaker 1: of the United States. The problems that Venezuela have been

937
00:55:12,520 --> 00:55:15,040
Speaker 1: years in the making. For a member of Congress who,

938
00:55:15,120 --> 00:55:18,239
Speaker 1: frankly one who sits on an important national security committee

939
00:55:18,360 --> 00:55:20,560
Speaker 1: to make a statement blaming America first in this way,

940
00:55:21,080 --> 00:55:23,680
Speaker 1: it's not only ignorant, it's disgusting. It's a congresswoman doesn't

941
00:55:23,680 --> 00:55:26,640
Speaker 1: know what she's talking about. Nicholas Maduro is a socialist

942
00:55:26,640 --> 00:55:29,279
Speaker 1: and dictator who's taken what was once one of the

943
00:55:29,320 --> 00:55:35,800
Speaker 1: most prosperous nations in this hemisphere and brought it literally

944
00:55:35,840 --> 00:55:39,000
Speaker 1: to a level of deprivation and oppression and poverty that

945
00:55:39,040 --> 00:55:42,520
Speaker 1: we have never seen. Nicholas Maduro has no legitimate claim

946
00:55:42,560 --> 00:55:47,480
Speaker 1: to power, and Nicholas Maduro must go. Ilahan Omar are

947
00:55:47,520 --> 00:55:50,920
Speaker 1: not making many friends among the Republican establishment with her

948
00:55:50,960 --> 00:55:55,480
Speaker 1: incredibly stupid comments blaming America. Blaming America first. You see

949
00:55:55,480 --> 00:56:00,520
Speaker 1: that for Trump and Republicans, America first means putting our

950
00:56:00,560 --> 00:56:05,160
Speaker 1: interest first and taking a certain pride in this country

951
00:56:05,480 --> 00:56:09,680
Speaker 1: and having that pride manifest itself in accepting that we

952
00:56:09,760 --> 00:56:13,880
Speaker 1: are a unique people and have interests that are specific

953
00:56:13,880 --> 00:56:16,360
Speaker 1: to us, and we should not place the needs of

954
00:56:16,400 --> 00:56:18,480
Speaker 1: the rest of the world ahead of ours. For the left,

955
00:56:19,040 --> 00:56:23,439
Speaker 1: it's blame America first. It's find a way to look

956
00:56:23,520 --> 00:56:26,759
Speaker 1: down on what we've done and make everyone feel like

957
00:56:27,239 --> 00:56:31,360
Speaker 1: somehow we are the cause of so many of the

958
00:56:31,400 --> 00:56:34,600
Speaker 1: problems in the world. You know, we are the ones

959
00:56:34,680 --> 00:56:40,719
Speaker 1: that have created the circumstance of Venezuela's deprivation, the sanctions.

960
00:56:40,800 --> 00:56:43,440
Speaker 1: You know, elan Omar, she's on a foreign affairs committee, folks.

961
00:56:43,440 --> 00:56:45,680
Speaker 1: This is not like somebody that should be able to

962
00:56:45,680 --> 00:56:48,240
Speaker 1: get away with saying stupid things about foreign policy without

963
00:56:48,280 --> 00:56:53,920
Speaker 1: any refutation that being refuted. I think refutation is that

964
00:56:54,040 --> 00:56:55,640
Speaker 1: I just make a noun out of something. That is

965
00:56:55,680 --> 00:56:58,080
Speaker 1: that a word? Producer Mike, tell me if refutation is

966
00:56:58,120 --> 00:57:01,360
Speaker 1: a word? If not, it should be or else I

967
00:57:01,360 --> 00:57:04,560
Speaker 1: will refute anyone who disagrees with me. But she knows

968
00:57:04,640 --> 00:57:08,200
Speaker 1: she should be repudiated. That's a fun word to use too.

969
00:57:08,719 --> 00:57:12,080
Speaker 1: What she's saying here is stupid. It's not just that

970
00:57:12,120 --> 00:57:15,359
Speaker 1: I think it's wrong. It's it's dumb because these sanctions,

971
00:57:15,600 --> 00:57:20,960
Speaker 1: until very recently on Venezuela were targeting individuals which would

972
00:57:21,000 --> 00:57:25,080
Speaker 1: not affect the broader economy, would not affect the ability

973
00:57:25,080 --> 00:57:31,200
Speaker 1: of the Venezuelan people to get access to say, you know,

974
00:57:31,600 --> 00:57:36,320
Speaker 1: rice flower. Mike says, it is a word. Thank you, Producer, Mike.

975
00:57:36,400 --> 00:57:40,000
Speaker 1: There the act of refuting. Go figure something such as

976
00:57:40,040 --> 00:57:42,640
Speaker 1: an argument that refutes someone or something there you go.

977
00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:44,720
Speaker 1: I mean, Mike, what can I tell you? Man? I

978
00:57:44,760 --> 00:57:47,600
Speaker 1: got skills to pay them bills? So you know, this

979
00:57:47,840 --> 00:57:50,360
Speaker 1: is this is what you see when you have someone

980
00:57:50,360 --> 00:57:53,920
Speaker 1: who has been elevated by Democrats because of really largely

981
00:57:53,920 --> 00:57:56,880
Speaker 1: because of identity politics, someone who should have a voice

982
00:57:56,880 --> 00:57:59,960
Speaker 1: in foreign policy. They think because she fits into the

983
00:58:00,040 --> 00:58:02,880
Speaker 1: following categories. Ilhan Omar, we should listen to what she

984
00:58:02,920 --> 00:58:06,640
Speaker 1: says on foreign policy. Meanwhile, she's very ignorant on foreign policy,

985
00:58:06,800 --> 00:58:09,040
Speaker 1: and clearly not only she's not like Israel. You start

986
00:58:09,080 --> 00:58:12,320
Speaker 1: to get the sense, how much does she really like America?

987
00:58:12,520 --> 00:58:15,240
Speaker 1: You know, just just let that one kind of let

988
00:58:15,240 --> 00:58:16,760
Speaker 1: that one merit it a little bit. How much do

989
00:58:16,800 --> 00:58:20,240
Speaker 1: we think she really likes America? I think there are

990
00:58:20,360 --> 00:58:25,640
Speaker 1: legitimate questions to ask about what she thinks of this country,

991
00:58:25,760 --> 00:58:27,400
Speaker 1: and I saw here, like fuck, it's more than just

992
00:58:27,560 --> 00:58:29,560
Speaker 1: questions about it. I think she probably thinks this place

993
00:58:29,680 --> 00:58:32,440
Speaker 1: is terrible, but there are plenty of people that come here.

994
00:58:32,440 --> 00:58:34,280
Speaker 1: I want to enjoy the benefits of this country while

995
00:58:34,320 --> 00:58:37,240
Speaker 1: also trying to tear it down from the inside. That's

996
00:58:37,240 --> 00:58:41,200
Speaker 1: not unusual on the left. Many leftists do that. But

997
00:58:41,560 --> 00:58:45,920
Speaker 1: Venezuela is a case study in a country doing what

998
00:58:45,960 --> 00:58:48,160
Speaker 1: the left in this country would want it to do,

999
00:58:48,360 --> 00:58:53,040
Speaker 1: which is redistribute wealth, massive state control over the economy,

1000
00:58:54,160 --> 00:58:59,360
Speaker 1: social justice at the core of economic policy, grievance collection

1001
00:58:59,480 --> 00:59:01,640
Speaker 1: over a long period of time that's used to justify

1002
00:59:01,800 --> 00:59:06,200
Speaker 1: the violation of individual rights. At present because of alleged

1003
00:59:06,560 --> 00:59:10,640
Speaker 1: or real historical injustices. That's all that. That's all stuff

1004
00:59:10,640 --> 00:59:14,320
Speaker 1: that Venezuela did, class warfare, these are these are the

1005
00:59:14,360 --> 00:59:18,200
Speaker 1: ways that Venezuela became a country with an inflation rate

1006
00:59:18,280 --> 00:59:20,680
Speaker 1: that's so high I can't even remember what the number

1007
00:59:20,680 --> 00:59:24,840
Speaker 1: is anymore. It's it's completely absurd. And ilhan Omar is

1008
00:59:25,040 --> 00:59:27,440
Speaker 1: running around saying that this is this is somehow our fault.

1009
00:59:28,200 --> 00:59:32,160
Speaker 1: It's not our fault. The only question I have is

1010
00:59:32,440 --> 00:59:35,600
Speaker 1: does she know that you know? Is she being dishonest

1011
00:59:35,680 --> 00:59:38,480
Speaker 1: or just being dumb? It is tough. It is often

1012
00:59:38,520 --> 00:59:41,600
Speaker 1: tough to tell with democrats. I thought it was very

1013
00:59:41,640 --> 00:59:43,560
Speaker 1: interesting that this story that's out there. I think it

1014
00:59:43,640 --> 00:59:46,720
Speaker 1: comes from Pompeo directly, that Maduro was going to go

1015
00:59:46,760 --> 00:59:48,760
Speaker 1: to Cuba, but then the Russian said, no, you got

1016
00:59:48,760 --> 00:59:54,200
Speaker 1: to stick it out. Huh. If that's true, then here

1017
00:59:54,240 --> 01:00:01,360
Speaker 1: we are backing strongly, backing an opposite position figure to

1018
01:00:01,840 --> 01:00:05,520
Speaker 1: someone who is a Russian really running a Russian client state.

1019
01:00:06,240 --> 01:00:10,080
Speaker 1: I mean, the Venezuelan regime under Maduro is as we

1020
01:00:10,120 --> 01:00:15,040
Speaker 1: see from regimes in general that are despotisms or authoritarian

1021
01:00:16,120 --> 01:00:19,760
Speaker 1: socialist hell holes. They ally themselves with the worst countries

1022
01:00:19,800 --> 01:00:22,680
Speaker 1: all over the world. That's definitely the case in Venezuela.

1023
01:00:22,800 --> 01:00:26,480
Speaker 1: But I just think it's noteworthy that we have yet

1024
01:00:26,520 --> 01:00:30,920
Speaker 1: again an instance of the Trump administration squaring off against

1025
01:00:30,920 --> 01:00:34,480
Speaker 1: Putin in a foreign country where I thought we were

1026
01:00:34,520 --> 01:00:36,960
Speaker 1: doing Putin's bidding all the time. Well, we're doing Putin's bidding.

1027
01:00:36,960 --> 01:00:39,640
Speaker 1: Why do we care? Why are we making life harder

1028
01:00:39,680 --> 01:00:44,200
Speaker 1: for Maduro when the Russians have clearly made his continuation

1029
01:00:44,400 --> 01:00:49,160
Speaker 1: in that role a foreign policy goal for themselves. Oh

1030
01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:51,280
Speaker 1: you mean that's all just that's all a lie that

1031
01:00:51,320 --> 01:00:55,080
Speaker 1: Trump's a Russian asset to Oh yeah, that's right, not

1032
01:00:55,360 --> 01:01:00,200
Speaker 1: a not a surprise, my friends. I wanted to just

1033
01:01:00,240 --> 01:01:04,160
Speaker 1: switch gears from moment here forks, that's a Friday's We're

1034
01:01:04,200 --> 01:01:07,760
Speaker 1: coming at a lot of ground kids skipping school for

1035
01:01:07,800 --> 01:01:10,000
Speaker 1: any kind of protest I think is I'm not gonna

1036
01:01:10,040 --> 01:01:12,000
Speaker 1: say it's a form of child abuse, but it definitely

1037
01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:16,280
Speaker 1: really bothers me. I think the politicization of children that

1038
01:01:16,320 --> 01:01:22,480
Speaker 1: goes on, and this is culturally and intellectually or ideologically,

1039
01:01:22,520 --> 01:01:25,440
Speaker 1: it is way more prevalent on the left. I know

1040
01:01:25,600 --> 01:01:27,480
Speaker 1: leftists who will say that, you know, ten year old

1041
01:01:27,560 --> 01:01:29,800
Speaker 1: should be listened to on matters of national policy. I

1042
01:01:29,800 --> 01:01:32,600
Speaker 1: don't know how much crazier they think things can get

1043
01:01:32,640 --> 01:01:37,360
Speaker 1: than what they're advocating for. But here's MSNBC celebrating kids

1044
01:01:37,400 --> 01:01:41,000
Speaker 1: getting pulled out of school for what Oh, not gun

1045
01:01:41,120 --> 01:01:48,680
Speaker 1: violence legislation issues this time, but for climate climate change stuff.

1046
01:01:48,800 --> 01:01:52,680
Speaker 1: Wow nineteen. So Friday's for future is this idea of

1047
01:01:52,680 --> 01:01:56,680
Speaker 1: students skipping school on Friday to essentially say, look, why

1048
01:01:56,680 --> 01:01:57,840
Speaker 1: do I need to go to school if I don't

1049
01:01:57,880 --> 01:01:59,240
Speaker 1: know what my future is going to look like based

1050
01:01:59,280 --> 01:02:00,760
Speaker 1: on the state of the plan it So that's what

1051
01:02:00,800 --> 01:02:02,240
Speaker 1: a bunch of these students have been doing for a

1052
01:02:02,280 --> 01:02:04,200
Speaker 1: long time. Actually, I'll introduce you to sum right here.

1053
01:02:04,520 --> 01:02:07,520
Speaker 1: These are they have been skipping school. This is Ella,

1054
01:02:07,640 --> 01:02:10,600
Speaker 1: Jai and Polar And so tell me first how old

1055
01:02:10,600 --> 01:02:12,600
Speaker 1: you guys are and tell me about skipping school and

1056
01:02:12,680 --> 01:02:16,320
Speaker 1: why and what that's all about. So, um, I've been

1057
01:02:16,360 --> 01:02:19,920
Speaker 1: skipping school for eleven weeks now, and it is a

1058
01:02:20,080 --> 01:02:23,880
Speaker 1: sacrifice that we have to make because we are missing

1059
01:02:23,920 --> 01:02:27,840
Speaker 1: important things. But we realize that if we don't skip

1060
01:02:28,160 --> 01:02:30,600
Speaker 1: this school, we might not have a future. So we

1061
01:02:30,640 --> 01:02:33,760
Speaker 1: need to In the twenty twenty election, I'm scared for

1062
01:02:33,840 --> 01:02:37,680
Speaker 1: my feature I'm scared that the politicians won't won't be

1063
01:02:38,360 --> 01:02:42,680
Speaker 1: declaring a climate emergency, won't be taking climate passion. I mean,

1064
01:02:42,720 --> 01:02:46,760
Speaker 1: this is completely insane. I think that the young girl

1065
01:02:46,800 --> 01:02:50,080
Speaker 1: said she skipped eleven weeks of class to be involved

1066
01:02:50,080 --> 01:02:54,160
Speaker 1: in protesting and activism, and I believe these kids are scared.

1067
01:02:54,160 --> 01:02:56,000
Speaker 1: They don't know any better. They've got adults telling they

1068
01:02:56,120 --> 01:02:59,800
Speaker 1: might not have a future. Don't don't go to school

1069
01:03:00,720 --> 01:03:03,240
Speaker 1: protest climate change because you may not have a future.

1070
01:03:04,280 --> 01:03:06,240
Speaker 1: They're telling them the world is going to end. I'm

1071
01:03:06,280 --> 01:03:09,640
Speaker 1: not exaggerating. That's what these kids are being told. This

1072
01:03:10,440 --> 01:03:15,880
Speaker 1: is psychological child abuse against kids. This is something that

1073
01:03:15,960 --> 01:03:18,760
Speaker 1: any adults should feel ashamed of. But of course MSNBC

1074
01:03:18,920 --> 01:03:21,720
Speaker 1: is celebrating this. Oh, they love kids involved in politics

1075
01:03:21,800 --> 01:03:25,800
Speaker 1: and the activism of children because children are inherently when

1076
01:03:25,800 --> 01:03:30,720
Speaker 1: they become politicized, they are shielded by virtue of their

1077
01:03:30,840 --> 01:03:35,040
Speaker 1: expected ignorance. We expect kids not to know about this stuff.

1078
01:03:35,080 --> 01:03:38,640
Speaker 1: We expect children to say stupid things about politics, and

1079
01:03:38,680 --> 01:03:40,760
Speaker 1: so therefore it's mean when you tell them they're saying

1080
01:03:40,840 --> 01:03:44,520
Speaker 1: dumb things. So they are messengers that are invulnerable at

1081
01:03:44,520 --> 01:03:46,480
Speaker 1: some level. That's why the left likes to use them

1082
01:03:46,480 --> 01:03:48,560
Speaker 1: so much. Also, they pull out your heartstrings because they're

1083
01:03:48,560 --> 01:03:52,439
Speaker 1: little kids. MSNBC just pulls out your brain strings because

1084
01:03:52,480 --> 01:03:55,120
Speaker 1: they're a bunch of idiots. We'll be right back, Okay.

1085
01:03:55,120 --> 01:03:58,680
Speaker 1: So Facebook is banning several far right extremists from its

1086
01:03:58,680 --> 01:04:02,600
Speaker 1: services because it can it is them dangerous. This includes

1087
01:04:02,640 --> 01:04:06,000
Speaker 1: the Nation of Islam leader Lewis Farrakon. Right wing conspiracy

1088
01:04:06,040 --> 01:04:11,240
Speaker 1: theorist Alex Jones also banned Paul Nalen, an anti Semite

1089
01:04:11,280 --> 01:04:17,040
Speaker 1: who ran unsuccessfully for Congress, along with fringe personalities Milo Janopolis,

1090
01:04:17,160 --> 01:04:23,960
Speaker 1: Laura Lumer, and Paul Joseph Watson, right wing farracon What

1091
01:04:25,000 --> 01:04:28,880
Speaker 1: that's not correct? The media was saying that all yesterday.

1092
01:04:28,960 --> 01:04:31,919
Speaker 1: I said, hold on a second, guys, what is going

1093
01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:35,680
Speaker 1: on here? Media, social well media getting it wrong and

1094
01:04:35,720 --> 01:04:39,280
Speaker 1: social media banning people. What do we make of this

1095
01:04:39,560 --> 01:04:43,000
Speaker 1: considering that they're banning them not for violations of specific

1096
01:04:43,040 --> 01:04:45,760
Speaker 1: conduct or codes of conduct, but just because they really

1097
01:04:45,800 --> 01:04:49,680
Speaker 1: really don't like them and think they're bad. Our next guest,

1098
01:04:49,800 --> 01:04:52,959
Speaker 1: Jesse Kelly, is a buddy of mine who has dealt

1099
01:04:53,000 --> 01:04:56,160
Speaker 1: with a little bit of social media censorship himself. He is,

1100
01:04:56,160 --> 01:04:58,760
Speaker 1: of course the host of the Jesse Kelly Show on

1101
01:04:59,080 --> 01:05:03,280
Speaker 1: KPRC in Houston from six to eight Eastern and does

1102
01:05:03,320 --> 01:05:06,959
Speaker 1: a whole bunch of other things. He's also nine feet tall.

1103
01:05:07,120 --> 01:05:09,840
Speaker 1: Jesse Kelly, great to have you back. Tell me, sir,

1104
01:05:10,400 --> 01:05:14,400
Speaker 1: what do you what's your reaction after? Yeah, some odious

1105
01:05:14,480 --> 01:05:17,760
Speaker 1: characters get banned, but I don't think anybody who knows

1106
01:05:17,800 --> 01:05:21,120
Speaker 1: anything believes that it's going to stop there. They want

1107
01:05:21,120 --> 01:05:24,000
Speaker 1: to see what the reaction is going to be when

1108
01:05:24,040 --> 01:05:26,800
Speaker 1: they pick off the weak one who's sick in the back,

1109
01:05:26,840 --> 01:05:28,400
Speaker 1: and then they want to see how the rest of

1110
01:05:28,440 --> 01:05:30,720
Speaker 1: the herds going to react. I mean, I hate to

1111
01:05:30,760 --> 01:05:34,200
Speaker 1: say things like we need to unite in defensive Lewis Barracon,

1112
01:05:34,600 --> 01:05:36,960
Speaker 1: but we do the truth of the matteries we do.

1113
01:05:37,240 --> 01:05:40,200
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter that he's a scumbag. Let him speak,

1114
01:05:40,360 --> 01:05:44,440
Speaker 1: let everybody speak, and what the best ideas win. I

1115
01:05:44,480 --> 01:05:47,520
Speaker 1: also think it's interesting that when it comes to social

1116
01:05:47,560 --> 01:05:52,160
Speaker 1: media censorship, you have the left all of a sudden is, oh,

1117
01:05:52,280 --> 01:05:54,360
Speaker 1: but they're private companies. They can do whatever they want.

1118
01:05:54,520 --> 01:05:58,680
Speaker 1: The left wants to wants to, uh, you know, control

1119
01:05:58,880 --> 01:06:01,440
Speaker 1: what private companies do all the time. They want to

1120
01:06:01,440 --> 01:06:03,800
Speaker 1: control what kind of toilet paper they have in the bathrooms,

1121
01:06:03,800 --> 01:06:05,800
Speaker 1: what kind of lightbulbs they have in the conference rooms.

1122
01:06:05,960 --> 01:06:07,960
Speaker 1: I mean, they want to tell them how much of

1123
01:06:08,000 --> 01:06:11,000
Speaker 1: their money they're able to keep, and what kind of

1124
01:06:11,040 --> 01:06:13,760
Speaker 1: social justice programs they have to donate to. Oh, but

1125
01:06:13,840 --> 01:06:16,880
Speaker 1: when it comes to free speech regulation, or rather the

1126
01:06:16,960 --> 01:06:20,800
Speaker 1: regulation of speech, they're like, well, they're private companies, then

1127
01:06:21,000 --> 01:06:23,280
Speaker 1: they can do whatever they want to do. And it's

1128
01:06:23,280 --> 01:06:25,080
Speaker 1: because I think they know Jesse that they've got a

1129
01:06:25,120 --> 01:06:28,360
Speaker 1: big built in advantage here. Silicon Valley is very left

1130
01:06:28,640 --> 01:06:31,120
Speaker 1: and this is always going to cut against conservatives when

1131
01:06:31,160 --> 01:06:35,120
Speaker 1: there's discretion involved. Always, and then because the left, I

1132
01:06:35,160 --> 01:06:37,680
Speaker 1: mean leftism in general, which should tell us where we

1133
01:06:37,720 --> 01:06:41,520
Speaker 1: should stand. Leftism in general is only about control. They're

1134
01:06:41,560 --> 01:06:43,960
Speaker 1: only about victory. You're right. They want to tell the

1135
01:06:44,040 --> 01:06:47,240
Speaker 1: employers what they have to pay their employees. There's nothing

1136
01:06:47,280 --> 01:06:50,240
Speaker 1: the left doesn't want to dictate to private companies until

1137
01:06:50,320 --> 01:06:53,200
Speaker 1: they find out that between Facebook and Twitter they get

1138
01:06:53,240 --> 01:06:56,400
Speaker 1: they have two point five billion users. And oh, by

1139
01:06:56,440 --> 01:06:58,640
Speaker 1: the way, we may be able to silence the people

1140
01:06:58,640 --> 01:07:01,400
Speaker 1: who disagree with this. That's use it to a leftist years.

1141
01:07:01,440 --> 01:07:03,560
Speaker 1: I mean, and I don't want to make an absurd

1142
01:07:03,680 --> 01:07:08,000
Speaker 1: comparison here, but leftists throughout history, that is what they do.

1143
01:07:08,080 --> 01:07:10,520
Speaker 1: I mean, in in the most extreme examples, and this

1144
01:07:10,600 --> 01:07:12,880
Speaker 1: is certainly nothing like this. I mean guys like pol

1145
01:07:12,920 --> 01:07:16,200
Speaker 1: Pot and those guys, they rounded up everyone who disagreed

1146
01:07:16,240 --> 01:07:18,440
Speaker 1: with them and got rid of them. That is what

1147
01:07:18,520 --> 01:07:21,360
Speaker 1: it means to be a leftist is to silence people

1148
01:07:21,400 --> 01:07:25,000
Speaker 1: who disagree with You, know, Jesse, I I can't skip

1149
01:07:25,080 --> 01:07:26,600
Speaker 1: over some of the news of the week that I

1150
01:07:26,640 --> 01:07:29,400
Speaker 1: feel like you're going to have a particular, a particularly

1151
01:07:31,240 --> 01:07:35,120
Speaker 1: poignant perspective on. And you may have seen that there's

1152
01:07:35,120 --> 01:07:37,760
Speaker 1: some there's a bit of a dust up over pay

1153
01:07:37,840 --> 01:07:43,640
Speaker 1: disparity between men's and women's professional sports teams. Now, I

1154
01:07:43,720 --> 01:07:45,400
Speaker 1: have to say, I know, I know you're a w

1155
01:07:45,640 --> 01:07:48,640
Speaker 1: NBA season ticket holder and have been for many years,

1156
01:07:49,840 --> 01:07:52,320
Speaker 1: but I'm just wondering what your thoughts are on the

1157
01:07:52,360 --> 01:07:56,800
Speaker 1: professional sports pay gap between men and women. Well, look,

1158
01:07:56,840 --> 01:07:59,840
Speaker 1: I don't I don't necessarily think it's fair to call

1159
01:08:00,040 --> 01:08:03,400
Speaker 1: the women's stuff professional. I mean, they play and somebody

1160
01:08:03,440 --> 01:08:06,360
Speaker 1: pays them. That doesn't mean it's professional to watch somebody

1161
01:08:06,400 --> 01:08:08,480
Speaker 1: plowed up and down the court and shoot layouts all

1162
01:08:08,560 --> 01:08:11,440
Speaker 1: night long, but they're never going to get paid equally

1163
01:08:11,480 --> 01:08:16,200
Speaker 1: because women's sports suck. They're virtually completely unwatchable. Even women

1164
01:08:16,240 --> 01:08:20,000
Speaker 1: don't like to watch women's sports. People watch sports in

1165
01:08:20,120 --> 01:08:23,320
Speaker 1: part because they want to see athletes doing things that

1166
01:08:23,400 --> 01:08:26,759
Speaker 1: they could never dream of doing and their wildest dreams.

1167
01:08:26,840 --> 01:08:30,160
Speaker 1: I want to see Lebron James at nine hundred pounds,

1168
01:08:30,240 --> 01:08:32,680
Speaker 1: running up the floor at eighty miles an hour and

1169
01:08:32,840 --> 01:08:35,600
Speaker 1: dunking the ball so hard that my grandparents feel it.

1170
01:08:35,800 --> 01:08:38,679
Speaker 1: That's what I want to see. That's basketball. I don't

1171
01:08:38,720 --> 01:08:41,960
Speaker 1: want to see crappy basketball. And women basketball is boring

1172
01:08:41,960 --> 01:08:43,840
Speaker 1: and crappy, and so no one watches, and so they

1173
01:08:43,840 --> 01:08:46,880
Speaker 1: don't make anybody. I guess I guess you're not going

1174
01:08:46,920 --> 01:08:49,799
Speaker 1: to get season tickets for WNBA next year, Jesse Kelly.

1175
01:08:50,160 --> 01:08:54,360
Speaker 1: I guess you're deciding to pass on that one. But

1176
01:08:54,520 --> 01:08:56,800
Speaker 1: I mean, I think some of the some of the

1177
01:08:56,840 --> 01:08:59,960
Speaker 1: controversies that we've seen this week are are almost you know, Taylor,

1178
01:09:00,000 --> 01:09:02,920
Speaker 1: are made for Jesse Kelly commentary. Like, for example, we

1179
01:09:03,000 --> 01:09:07,000
Speaker 1: talked about the Sports Illustrated BURKINI decision. Have you seen this?

1180
01:09:07,920 --> 01:09:10,519
Speaker 1: I did. I saw that and part of me just

1181
01:09:10,640 --> 01:09:14,040
Speaker 1: rolled my eyes at it. It's such a stupid virtue

1182
01:09:14,120 --> 01:09:18,080
Speaker 1: signaling thing to do. The entire purpose of the swimsuit

1183
01:09:18,160 --> 01:09:21,800
Speaker 1: issue is so young men can look at scantily clad women.

1184
01:09:21,840 --> 01:09:23,840
Speaker 1: I mean, we don't have to sugarcoat this. And they've

1185
01:09:23,880 --> 01:09:26,880
Speaker 1: tried to make it more sporty and everything in the

1186
01:09:26,920 --> 01:09:30,479
Speaker 1: recent years and empowering to women. Keep serious, it's Playboy

1187
01:09:30,560 --> 01:09:33,280
Speaker 1: with a little bit more clothing on. It's something young

1188
01:09:33,280 --> 01:09:36,559
Speaker 1: men enjoy. Nobody wants to go see a woman dressed

1189
01:09:36,640 --> 01:09:38,800
Speaker 1: up in a full blanket laid out on the beach.

1190
01:09:39,400 --> 01:09:42,040
Speaker 1: I never forget when they banned Maxim magazine in my

1191
01:09:42,120 --> 01:09:45,840
Speaker 1: high school. You would you would get in serious trouble

1192
01:09:45,880 --> 01:09:48,040
Speaker 1: if you went into high school with Maxim magazine. And

1193
01:09:48,080 --> 01:09:50,559
Speaker 1: then there was of course, because we all know how

1194
01:09:50,640 --> 01:09:54,160
Speaker 1: black market economies work. Maxim magazines turned into like cigarettes

1195
01:09:54,200 --> 01:09:57,840
Speaker 1: in prison. You know, well back in our day, but

1196
01:09:58,120 --> 01:10:01,280
Speaker 1: Maxim was the thing. Kid. These things don't realize how

1197
01:10:01,280 --> 01:10:03,360
Speaker 1: good they have it. They have everything at the at

1198
01:10:03,400 --> 01:10:05,080
Speaker 1: the touch of a button. You just pull out your

1199
01:10:05,080 --> 01:10:07,040
Speaker 1: phone if you want to see a beautiful woman. Back

1200
01:10:07,040 --> 01:10:10,519
Speaker 1: in the day, it took some effort, Absolutely true, Jesse.

1201
01:10:10,640 --> 01:10:13,639
Speaker 1: I'll also wanted to get your take on the latest

1202
01:10:13,640 --> 01:10:19,479
Speaker 1: Avengers movie. Uh, it was it was a good movie.

1203
01:10:20,040 --> 01:10:24,080
Speaker 1: I have two humongous problems with it. Humongous problems with it.

1204
01:10:24,360 --> 01:10:29,640
Speaker 1: One is the Hulk situation is so grossly unacceptable. So

1205
01:10:29,800 --> 01:10:31,840
Speaker 1: it's one thing to have him get beaten up and

1206
01:10:31,880 --> 01:10:35,200
Speaker 1: slapped around the entire last movie, but then you do

1207
01:10:35,280 --> 01:10:39,479
Speaker 1: your final end game movie. You can't do a final

1208
01:10:39,680 --> 01:10:43,200
Speaker 1: Endgame movie and never give Avengers or comic book movie

1209
01:10:43,240 --> 01:10:47,280
Speaker 1: fans one single Halk rage out moment, not one. Instead,

1210
01:10:47,320 --> 01:10:50,400
Speaker 1: we have nerd Hulk. That that that's a huge part

1211
01:10:50,439 --> 01:10:52,960
Speaker 1: of the franchise, as Hulk losing his mind and ripping

1212
01:10:53,000 --> 01:10:56,439
Speaker 1: people's heads off, and we didn't that once and two

1213
01:10:57,200 --> 01:11:00,360
Speaker 1: fat thor I mean it maybe for half the movie

1214
01:11:00,400 --> 01:11:02,439
Speaker 1: if you want to do a comedic sing ha ha ha,

1215
01:11:02,600 --> 01:11:04,720
Speaker 1: that's kind of funny, he got fat, But then you

1216
01:11:04,760 --> 01:11:06,800
Speaker 1: need to have him snapan of that and be back

1217
01:11:06,840 --> 01:11:09,479
Speaker 1: to thour. Part of the purpose of four is I

1218
01:11:09,560 --> 01:11:12,000
Speaker 1: get to watch him lightning bolt people and my wife

1219
01:11:12,000 --> 01:11:14,960

Speaker 1: your guy. Some May Day madness there caught on video.

1228
01:12:10,360 --> 01:12:11,840
Speaker 1: We can and play the audio for you, because of

1229
01:12:11,880 --> 01:12:13,479
Speaker 1: course this is radio. But at the end you might

1230
01:12:13,520 --> 01:12:17,479
Speaker 1: have heard what sounded like the spraying of some kind

1231
01:12:17,479 --> 01:12:20,960
Speaker 1: of substance up close and personal to where the camera

1232
01:12:21,040 --> 01:12:24,200
Speaker 1: was recording that. And we have joining us now somebody

1233
01:12:24,200 --> 01:12:27,160
Speaker 1: who can tell you exactly what happened. That was, in

1234
01:12:27,200 --> 01:12:30,800
Speaker 1: fact a pepper spray assault. This is all happening in

1235
01:12:30,960 --> 01:12:35,040
Speaker 1: Portland on May Day. Antifa running around the streets like

1236
01:12:35,080 --> 01:12:38,320
Speaker 1: a bunch of maniacs. They are where are the Portland cops?

1237
01:12:38,800 --> 01:12:40,720
Speaker 1: And what was really going on here? We got our

1238
01:12:40,720 --> 01:12:44,839
Speaker 1: friend Andy no back in action. He is a freelance

1239
01:12:44,960 --> 01:12:46,960
Speaker 1: journalist who's been doing great work out on the West

1240
01:12:47,000 --> 01:12:53,040
Speaker 1: Coast covering Antifa and also is an editor at Quillette.

1241
01:12:53,200 --> 01:12:55,720
Speaker 1: Any great to have you back on the program. It's

1242
01:12:55,720 --> 01:12:57,960
Speaker 1: a pleasure to be with you, all right, Any tell

1243
01:12:58,160 --> 01:12:59,800
Speaker 1: tell us. We got to play a little bit of

1244
01:12:59,840 --> 01:13:02,360
Speaker 1: the of the audio from the street there. What was

1245
01:13:02,400 --> 01:13:04,479
Speaker 1: going on? Give us the backstory before you tell us

1246
01:13:04,479 --> 01:13:07,439
Speaker 1: about how you were attacked by Antifa. You were assaulted

1247
01:13:07,960 --> 01:13:13,800
Speaker 1: several times. Yes. So May Day was the first of May,

1248
01:13:14,000 --> 01:13:17,400
Speaker 1: and in Portland there was a series of events and

1249
01:13:17,600 --> 01:13:23,759
Speaker 1: it was built as a celebration of diversity and workers' rights.

1250
01:13:24,600 --> 01:13:29,640
Speaker 1: In reality it was an anti celebration of Marxism, communism,

1251
01:13:29,800 --> 01:13:38,200
Speaker 1: and political violence. So at first there was a unlawful

1252
01:13:38,320 --> 01:13:45,320
Speaker 1: street protest against the local Ice office. In this protesters

1253
01:13:45,320 --> 01:13:50,080
Speaker 1: with Antifa came massed up and blocked the streets, blocked

1254
01:13:50,160 --> 01:13:56,160
Speaker 1: traffic in a critical area near a hospital, and they

1255
01:13:56,160 --> 01:13:59,200
Speaker 1: were stopped outside by federal police officers before they could

1256
01:13:59,200 --> 01:14:02,680
Speaker 1: go any further to the Ice building in this location.

1257
01:14:02,760 --> 01:14:06,040
Speaker 1: It's the same building where last summer there was a

1258
01:14:06,120 --> 01:14:11,360
Speaker 1: five week siege and occupation by the same people, the

1259
01:14:11,439 --> 01:14:16,240
Speaker 1: same group that that incident last year. I wrote about

1260
01:14:16,240 --> 01:14:18,360
Speaker 1: it for the Wall Street Journal at the time. The

1261
01:14:18,560 --> 01:14:22,120
Speaker 1: federal officers the first day were trapped inside. All the

1262
01:14:22,160 --> 01:14:28,120
Speaker 1: exits were blocked off by angry rioters protesters, and they

1263
01:14:28,160 --> 01:14:31,479
Speaker 1: called for Portland police to help, and Portland police denied

1264
01:14:31,520 --> 01:14:35,040
Speaker 1: their requests, so they had to wait for federal officers

1265
01:14:35,120 --> 01:14:38,639
Speaker 1: to assemble to a system. And then there was a

1266
01:14:38,680 --> 01:14:43,840
Speaker 1: five week occupation around that property that became a became

1267
01:14:43,840 --> 01:14:48,880
Speaker 1: a biohazard. So can I just jump real quick? The

1268
01:14:49,320 --> 01:14:53,880
Speaker 1: Immigrations and Customs Enforcement Office called local police to help

1269
01:14:53,960 --> 01:14:57,800
Speaker 1: deal with the occupation, which was a kind of encampment

1270
01:14:57,880 --> 01:15:01,080
Speaker 1: meant to menace and block acts to the Immigrations and

1271
01:15:01,120 --> 01:15:06,000
Speaker 1: Customs Enforcement offices, and Portland Police said, sorry, you're on

1272
01:15:06,040 --> 01:15:09,559
Speaker 1: your own. They said, your request for assistance is denied.

1273
01:15:10,240 --> 01:15:14,040
Speaker 1: And then the Portland Mayor, Ted Wheeler, who also doubles

1274
01:15:14,040 --> 01:15:17,479
Speaker 1: as a police commissioner, put out a statement on Twitter

1275
01:15:17,680 --> 01:15:19,960
Speaker 1: saying that if they are asking for a ball out,

1276
01:15:20,000 --> 01:15:23,879
Speaker 1: they're not going to get up from the city. Wow. Okay,

1277
01:15:23,960 --> 01:15:27,120
Speaker 1: so obviously problems with the Portland PD here too, But

1278
01:15:27,240 --> 01:15:30,400
Speaker 1: so bring us up to then the current situation that

1279
01:15:30,479 --> 01:15:35,360
Speaker 1: just happened, or rather the recent situation on May Day. Yeah.

1280
01:15:35,439 --> 01:15:40,240
Speaker 1: So these massed individuals hate me because of my coverage

1281
01:15:40,240 --> 01:15:43,280
Speaker 1: of what they do. And they know you by sight,

1282
01:15:43,400 --> 01:15:44,600
Speaker 1: now don't they. I mean, I can hear it in

1283
01:15:44,640 --> 01:15:49,000
Speaker 1: some of the audio. Unfortunately they do, so they try

1284
01:15:49,000 --> 01:15:51,559
Speaker 1: to block me from recording and let's just generally be

1285
01:15:51,760 --> 01:15:57,240
Speaker 1: generally being antagonistic. But then my camera equipment was targeted.

1286
01:15:57,280 --> 01:16:01,600
Speaker 1: It was still the string, and then after that, another

1287
01:16:01,720 --> 01:16:05,560
Speaker 1: mass individual punched me in the abdomen. This was completely

1288
01:16:05,600 --> 01:16:09,679
Speaker 1: unprovoked on my part. I immediately went to Portland Police,

1289
01:16:09,680 --> 01:16:13,840
Speaker 1: who was standing yards away, to report it to the

1290
01:16:13,920 --> 01:16:17,160
Speaker 1: liaison officer on the scene, to let him know what

1291
01:16:17,240 --> 01:16:22,720
Speaker 1: had happened, and I pointed out this individual. This individual

1292
01:16:22,800 --> 01:16:25,880
Speaker 1: was mouse, I don't know the identity, but that person

1293
01:16:26,000 --> 01:16:29,160
Speaker 1: was still there, and Portland Police let me know that

1294
01:16:29,720 --> 01:16:31,559
Speaker 1: there was nothing that you could do at that moment

1295
01:16:31,720 --> 01:16:35,479
Speaker 1: because if they intervene, it would be quote an unquote

1296
01:16:35,479 --> 01:16:41,479
Speaker 1: an escalation. So nothing was done. So you get attacked

1297
01:16:41,600 --> 01:16:43,960
Speaker 1: in front of cops and the cops say they can't

1298
01:16:43,960 --> 01:16:46,840
Speaker 1: do anything because to do anything to your attackers would

1299
01:16:46,840 --> 01:16:51,240
Speaker 1: be a quote escalation exactly. Those were the same words

1300
01:16:51,280 --> 01:16:54,200
Speaker 1: that we used last year and when the last time

1301
01:16:54,240 --> 01:16:57,439
Speaker 1: you interviewed me where I was surrounded and mobbed and

1302
01:16:57,600 --> 01:17:01,240
Speaker 1: my equipment was damage, same thing they police that time,

1303
01:17:01,240 --> 01:17:05,200
Speaker 1: We're even standing closer. And it was also that they

1304
01:17:05,200 --> 01:17:11,680
Speaker 1: could incite the crowd if they escalated anything, So then

1305
01:17:11,680 --> 01:17:15,879
Speaker 1: what happened from the well. Later on that day, there

1306
01:17:16,120 --> 01:17:20,759
Speaker 1: was a May Day party being hosted by a local

1307
01:17:20,840 --> 01:17:24,120
Speaker 1: business called the Cider Riot. They were hosting an event

1308
01:17:24,200 --> 01:17:30,000
Speaker 1: with Roast City Antipa, and then there was a riot

1309
01:17:30,080 --> 01:17:32,559
Speaker 1: that happened there. I came there to document the event.

1310
01:17:32,720 --> 01:17:36,160
Speaker 1: There was a small group of right wingers Patriot Prince

1311
01:17:36,320 --> 01:17:41,240
Speaker 1: Conservative group who came to just basically yell at them

1312
01:17:41,280 --> 01:17:44,880
Speaker 1: from across the street. But then bear mace and pepper

1313
01:17:44,960 --> 01:17:50,840
Speaker 1: spray started spraying indiscriminately, projectiles or being thrown the cause

1314
01:17:50,920 --> 01:17:53,280
Speaker 1: in the area with damage. And then I was singled

1315
01:17:53,320 --> 01:17:56,640
Speaker 1: out by a moss individual. He went up to me

1316
01:17:56,720 --> 01:18:00,680
Speaker 1: nearly a point blank and sprayed me with and I

1317
01:18:00,720 --> 01:18:05,479
Speaker 1: was blinded completely, had no idea what happened. Who was

1318
01:18:05,520 --> 01:18:09,120
Speaker 1: around me? Somebody I don't know who led me across

1319
01:18:09,200 --> 01:18:15,160
Speaker 1: the street and then I could hear the fighting happening

1320
01:18:15,160 --> 01:18:19,240
Speaker 1: across the street. It devolved until a brawl, fist fights

1321
01:18:19,320 --> 01:18:24,240
Speaker 1: and weapons being used, and no police were in fight

1322
01:18:24,479 --> 01:18:30,600
Speaker 1: at all, and police arrived after everything was over. The

1323
01:18:30,680 --> 01:18:33,920
Speaker 1: ironic thing was, as this riot was happening in Portland,

1324
01:18:33,920 --> 01:18:37,760
Speaker 1: police had issued a press release talking about how May

1325
01:18:37,840 --> 01:18:42,560
Speaker 1: Day was entirely peaceful because there were no arrests. That's astonishing.

1326
01:18:43,120 --> 01:18:46,680
Speaker 1: So because they refused to arrest people, then the narrative is, well,

1327
01:18:46,720 --> 01:18:49,280
Speaker 1: there were no arrests, so it was peaceful. That's that's

1328
01:18:49,360 --> 01:18:53,400
Speaker 1: quite a way to exact to do your law enforcement exactly,

1329
01:18:54,160 --> 01:18:58,400
Speaker 1: And I reported. I called police when I got home,

1330
01:18:58,880 --> 01:19:01,240
Speaker 1: had a chance to bay and showers, and the skin

1331
01:19:01,400 --> 01:19:05,320
Speaker 1: was it felt like my face, my ears, my arms,

1332
01:19:05,320 --> 01:19:08,479
Speaker 1: they were on fire. Bathing didn't really help, but I

1333
01:19:08,800 --> 01:19:11,800
Speaker 1: called police again. This time I was adamant that an

1334
01:19:11,840 --> 01:19:14,960
Speaker 1: officer needed to come out and to take the report

1335
01:19:15,000 --> 01:19:20,960
Speaker 1: of this assault, and an officer canes. Some first responders

1336
01:19:20,960 --> 01:19:22,960
Speaker 1: were called as well, just to check out my skin

1337
01:19:23,040 --> 01:19:25,800
Speaker 1: if it was okay, And so that was reported. I

1338
01:19:25,840 --> 01:19:28,439
Speaker 1: got a case number, and then the next morning, the

1339
01:19:28,479 --> 01:19:32,720
Speaker 1: Portland Police issued another press release saying that when they

1340
01:19:32,760 --> 01:19:38,000
Speaker 1: responded to the riot they could nobody was willing to

1341
01:19:38,040 --> 01:19:43,799
Speaker 1: file a police report and that there was no reports

1342
01:19:43,800 --> 01:19:46,800
Speaker 1: of any assaults that had happened, which was shocking to

1343
01:19:46,880 --> 01:19:49,599
Speaker 1: me because more than twelve hours earlier I had reported

1344
01:19:50,920 --> 01:19:56,400
Speaker 1: my assault and so now again they were issuing another

1345
01:19:56,439 --> 01:20:00,640
Speaker 1: press release to the media, seemingly downplaying the violence. Antifa.

1346
01:20:01,240 --> 01:20:04,920
Speaker 1: So I hope that this is just a mistake of

1347
01:20:05,000 --> 01:20:09,719
Speaker 1: breakdown communication somewhere rather than a political move or something

1348
01:20:09,760 --> 01:20:15,680
Speaker 1: more nefarious. What do these Antifa maniacs in Portland? What

1349
01:20:15,760 --> 01:20:19,120
Speaker 1: do they want? Andy? What are they doing? I mean,

1350
01:20:19,120 --> 01:20:21,120
Speaker 1: they just look at such a bunch of jackasses. I mean,

1351
01:20:21,160 --> 01:20:24,240
Speaker 1: I know they're dangerous and they attacked you, and but

1352
01:20:24,520 --> 01:20:27,280
Speaker 1: what do they think they are they are accomplishing by

1353
01:20:27,320 --> 01:20:32,599
Speaker 1: doing this nonsense on the streets of Portland, Oregon. They

1354
01:20:32,640 --> 01:20:34,960
Speaker 1: say that they are showing up the end numbers to

1355
01:20:35,479 --> 01:20:39,880
Speaker 1: fights fascism in white supremacy. That's what they literally say.

1356
01:20:40,000 --> 01:20:48,160
Speaker 1: Their ideology is a mixture of anarchism, communism, moxism. Some

1357
01:20:48,240 --> 01:20:52,200
Speaker 1: of them are really agitating from violent political revolution. Some

1358
01:20:52,280 --> 01:20:58,280
Speaker 1: of them just like the opportunity to mask up in

1359
01:20:58,320 --> 01:21:02,360
Speaker 1: a gang basically and beating up people and getting away

1360
01:21:02,400 --> 01:21:09,240
Speaker 1: with it. So it's again, we'll keep seeing over and

1361
01:21:09,280 --> 01:21:13,120
Speaker 1: over instance there's an anarchy industry of Portland where the

1362
01:21:13,160 --> 01:21:17,280
Speaker 1: police are not enforcing the law. And you know, I'm

1363
01:21:17,479 --> 01:21:19,880
Speaker 1: very supportive of the institution of police. I know it's

1364
01:21:20,160 --> 01:21:22,280
Speaker 1: it's very hard to be an officer in the city.

1365
01:21:23,400 --> 01:21:27,360
Speaker 1: I placed the blame on the leadership. I think the

1366
01:21:28,280 --> 01:21:33,000
Speaker 1: mayor who doubles us the police commissioner unfortunately has politicized

1367
01:21:33,240 --> 01:21:38,200
Speaker 1: the bureau to such a degree that they're not enforcing

1368
01:21:38,240 --> 01:21:42,080
Speaker 1: the law equally, that's for sure. Well Andy, look man,

1369
01:21:42,080 --> 01:21:44,800
Speaker 1: we always appreciate your reporting from out there on the

1370
01:21:44,840 --> 01:21:48,719

1383
01:22:23,439 --> 01:22:27,839

1386
01:22:31,760 --> 01:22:35,360
Speaker 1: On team. We'll be right back. And the Republicans look

1387
01:22:35,360 --> 01:22:37,920
Speaker 1: at the Trump White House and say, well, you know,

1388
01:22:38,880 --> 01:22:41,400
Speaker 1: the Russians probably did help them, you know, just whatever

1389
01:22:41,400 --> 01:22:44,200
Speaker 1: extent we may not yet know. So we're not going

1390
01:22:44,280 --> 01:22:46,040
Speaker 1: to go there. We're gonna do what they tell us.

1391
01:22:46,200 --> 01:22:51,000
Speaker 1: So why should Russia have all the fun? And since

1392
01:22:51,080 --> 01:22:56,120
Speaker 1: Russia is clearly backing Republicans, why don't we ask China

1393
01:22:56,240 --> 01:22:59,519
Speaker 1: to back us? I hereby tonight, ask China. That's right,

1394
01:22:59,600 --> 01:23:03,400
Speaker 1: And not only that, China, if you're listening, why don't

1395
01:23:03,439 --> 01:23:10,200
Speaker 1: you get Trump's tax returns? Ha ha ha. Hillary so droll,

1396
01:23:10,280 --> 01:23:15,080
Speaker 1: so funny, She's so incredibly hilarious. Keep in mind that

1397
01:23:16,360 --> 01:23:19,559
Speaker 1: under the new rules, you have to remember this, Democrats

1398
01:23:19,600 --> 01:23:23,879
Speaker 1: have established a very important precedent here. Sore loser Hillary,

1399
01:23:24,200 --> 01:23:28,439
Speaker 1: I really won. Sore loser Hillary has established an important precedent,

1400
01:23:29,120 --> 01:23:32,920
Speaker 1: and that is that any foreign government that wants to

1401
01:23:33,360 --> 01:23:41,320
Speaker 1: throw us into some degree of political chaos can infiltrate

1402
01:23:41,400 --> 01:23:46,040
Speaker 1: social media under false identities. It's using sock puppets and

1403
01:23:46,479 --> 01:23:51,800
Speaker 1: different controlled accounts, maybe hack into some low level staffer

1404
01:23:51,920 --> 01:23:54,800
Speaker 1: or someone's email accounts somewhere. All they have to do

1405
01:23:54,880 --> 01:23:59,240
Speaker 1: is involve themselves in our election, and they have by

1406
01:23:59,320 --> 01:24:04,679
Speaker 1: that very act, created an opening for the losing political

1407
01:24:04,720 --> 01:24:10,880
Speaker 1: party to say the election was done under a cloud,

1408
01:24:10,920 --> 01:24:16,519
Speaker 1: the election was illegitimate. Think about the power that they

1409
01:24:16,560 --> 01:24:19,240
Speaker 1: have now given to any foreign cut because of their

1410
01:24:20,680 --> 01:24:27,479
Speaker 1: completely exaggerated and hyperbolic view of Russian interference in the election.

1411
01:24:27,920 --> 01:24:30,600
Speaker 1: Any government, any country that wants to create problems for

1412
01:24:30,680 --> 01:24:35,519
Speaker 1: us can just intentionally metal can intentionally have their and

1413
01:24:35,560 --> 01:24:37,200
Speaker 1: they'll just say that, oh, we didn't do it. It

1414
01:24:37,240 --> 01:24:39,519
Speaker 1: was some lone hackers, you know, we didn't back them,

1415
01:24:39,600 --> 01:24:41,120
Speaker 1: or whatever it is. It's very easy. This is not

1416
01:24:41,160 --> 01:24:44,240
Speaker 1: difficult stuff. I mean setting up a phishing email scam.

1417
01:24:44,240 --> 01:24:46,120
Speaker 1: I mean, they're criminals to do this all over the world.

1418
01:24:47,200 --> 01:24:51,080
Speaker 1: But the basic rule here still stands that they can.

1419
01:24:51,479 --> 01:24:58,360
Speaker 1: They can have somebody do that, and then the other party,

1420
01:24:58,400 --> 01:25:02,120
Speaker 1: the party that losers, can say, see, they cheated, this

1421
01:25:02,240 --> 01:25:10,600
Speaker 1: election's illegitimate, this election does not count. So that's a

1422
01:25:10,760 --> 01:25:16,439
Speaker 1: really powerful tool for political anarchy in this country. That's

1423
01:25:16,439 --> 01:25:20,040
Speaker 1: a that's a really powerful tool to set up Democrats

1424
01:25:20,040 --> 01:25:22,639
Speaker 1: and Republicans at each other's throats going forward. And it's

1425
01:25:22,640 --> 01:25:27,040
Speaker 1: all because the Democrats, Remember Obama knew about Russian medalling

1426
01:25:27,040 --> 01:25:28,960
Speaker 1: didn't do anything because he knew it wasn't that big

1427
01:25:29,000 --> 01:25:31,720
Speaker 1: a deal. Didn't really matter, right, It was really just

1428
01:25:31,720 --> 01:25:34,680
Speaker 1: what the Russians have always done, which is, you know, disinformatzia.

1429
01:25:35,000 --> 01:25:38,760
Speaker 1: It's disinformation. It's meant to be create a little bit

1430
01:25:38,760 --> 01:25:40,719
Speaker 1: of strife. And this this is just in their nature.

1431
01:25:40,720 --> 01:25:44,479
Speaker 1: Maybe they're they're bitter. I mean, the Russian government Putin,

1432
01:25:44,760 --> 01:25:47,719
Speaker 1: people work for him. They don't like that America talks

1433
01:25:47,720 --> 01:25:50,960
Speaker 1: badly about Putin and does all this democracy democracy promotion stuff.

1434
01:25:51,000 --> 01:25:53,519
Speaker 1: But I mean from the Russian perspective, what they were

1435
01:25:53,560 --> 01:25:55,519
Speaker 1: doing was really the equivalent of a kind of an

1436
01:25:55,520 --> 01:26:00,639
Speaker 1: international relations prank. You know, they couldn't seiously have thought

1437
01:26:00,680 --> 01:26:02,360
Speaker 1: that they were going to change the outcome of the election,

1438
01:26:02,400 --> 01:26:05,200
Speaker 1: and that was never really the intention. The intention was

1439
01:26:05,240 --> 01:26:10,479
Speaker 1: just so chaos. But what better way to magnify whatever

1440
01:26:10,600 --> 01:26:13,320
Speaker 1: chaos they can sew than for one political party to say, yeah,

1441
01:26:13,360 --> 01:26:18,080
Speaker 1: that election illegitimate, shouldn't really count. And so when Hillary says,

1442
01:26:18,200 --> 01:26:21,200
Speaker 1: going forward, oh, well, you know the Chinese, maybe the

1443
01:26:21,280 --> 01:26:23,320
Speaker 1: Chinese will get Donald Trump's tax regions. I mean, I

1444
01:26:23,400 --> 01:26:26,840
Speaker 1: know that she's saying she's kidding, but if the Chinese

1445
01:26:26,920 --> 01:26:29,840
Speaker 1: want to. They could just have one of their military

1446
01:26:29,840 --> 01:26:32,360
Speaker 1: cyber units, or they could even create some degree of

1447
01:26:32,400 --> 01:26:37,559
Speaker 1: plausible deniability and have an information operation. They could run

1448
01:26:37,600 --> 01:26:39,439
Speaker 1: it through North Korea. Wouldn't be hard to do at all.

1449
01:26:39,439 --> 01:26:42,280
Speaker 1: What are we gonna do to North Korea? More sanctions?

1450
01:26:42,320 --> 01:26:44,360
Speaker 1: You know, how much more sanctioning can we do? They

1451
01:26:44,439 --> 01:26:46,960
Speaker 1: run it through North Korea and they interfere in the election,

1452
01:26:47,479 --> 01:26:49,920
Speaker 1: and then they know that we're at each other's throats

1453
01:26:49,920 --> 01:26:52,439
Speaker 1: in this country about who really won the election when

1454
01:26:53,120 --> 01:26:59,000
Speaker 1: their influence on it is basically non existent. I mean,

1455
01:26:59,160 --> 01:27:02,760
Speaker 1: no person who saw a lock her up meme that

1456
01:27:02,800 --> 01:27:04,559
Speaker 1: was created by a Russian was like, you know what,

1457
01:27:05,080 --> 01:27:07,200
Speaker 1: now I'm going now I'm going to vote against Hillary.

1458
01:27:07,280 --> 01:27:11,040
Speaker 1: It's just not how this works. This is I know,

1459
01:27:11,120 --> 01:27:12,519
Speaker 1: I keep going to this, but this is like an

1460
01:27:12,520 --> 01:27:14,840
Speaker 1: eye dropper in the you know, putting an eye dropper

1461
01:27:14,880 --> 01:27:17,040
Speaker 1: of water in the ocean and saying you're changing the temperature.

1462
01:27:18,479 --> 01:27:21,000
Speaker 1: I mean not, you know, you have changed the composition

1463
01:27:21,000 --> 01:27:23,120
Speaker 1: of that ocean at some level. You've added water to

1464
01:27:23,160 --> 01:27:26,120
Speaker 1: the ocean. But does anyone think that it matters the

1465
01:27:26,240 --> 01:27:29,080
Speaker 1: Russian interference other than the disrespect that it chose in

1466
01:27:29,120 --> 01:27:31,479
Speaker 1: the Russian government for our processes. But that shouldn't be

1467
01:27:31,520 --> 01:27:34,479
Speaker 1: a surprise to us. The Russian interference from a who

1468
01:27:34,560 --> 01:27:40,040
Speaker 1: votes for a who perspective didn't matter. And the Democrats

1469
01:27:40,160 --> 01:27:42,519
Speaker 1: know this, but it's more fun for them, and particularly

1470
01:27:42,560 --> 01:27:46,040
Speaker 1: for Hillary, to act like that's not the case. You know,

1471
01:27:46,280 --> 01:27:49,480
Speaker 1: Hillary's looks, she's the ultimate sore loser. How cany Sanders

1472
01:27:50,160 --> 01:27:54,800
Speaker 1: responded to Hillary's China comments and and here's here's what

1473
01:27:54,840 --> 01:27:59,720
Speaker 1: she said. The previous administration where they actually didn't do

1474
01:27:59,800 --> 01:28:04,839
Speaker 1: a thing to stop interference in the election, And honestly,

1475
01:28:04,880 --> 01:28:09,360
Speaker 1: I'm baffled by it, and it's truly astonishing. Comments from

1476
01:28:12,600 --> 01:28:16,759
Speaker 1: is pretty astonishing, isn't it. Now. I'm gonna I'm putting

1477
01:28:16,760 --> 01:28:18,800
Speaker 1: this idea out there right and you can tell it.

1478
01:28:18,920 --> 01:28:22,680
Speaker 1: You can tell me I'm crazy, and that's fine. But

1479
01:28:22,760 --> 01:28:25,680
Speaker 1: there is a school of thought. You got to think

1480
01:28:25,720 --> 01:28:28,160
Speaker 1: outside the box for this one. There's a school of

1481
01:28:28,160 --> 01:28:32,040
Speaker 1: thought that in a very crowded, i mean just comically

1482
01:28:32,080 --> 01:28:36,360
Speaker 1: crowded Democrat presidential primary, which is what we currently have,

1483
01:28:37,360 --> 01:28:39,160
Speaker 1: just hear just hear me out on this one, folks,

1484
01:28:39,160 --> 01:28:42,120
Speaker 1: hear me out on this one. A very crowded field,

1485
01:28:43,520 --> 01:28:47,439
Speaker 1: doesn't the person with the highest name recognition and the

1486
01:28:47,479 --> 01:28:53,600
Speaker 1: most visible you know, resume and just general political apparatus

1487
01:28:53,600 --> 01:28:56,599
Speaker 1: around them become a more attractive candidate in many ways.

1488
01:28:58,360 --> 01:29:00,360
Speaker 1: If you were trying to think of as an area

1489
01:29:00,600 --> 01:29:04,360
Speaker 1: where Hillary would at the last moment be the savior

1490
01:29:04,400 --> 01:29:08,960
Speaker 1: of the party, an incredibly fractured and nasty Democrat primary

1491
01:29:09,560 --> 01:29:14,240
Speaker 1: would be it. I'm not saying Hillary's running, I'm just

1492
01:29:14,400 --> 01:29:18,400
Speaker 1: saying if she was going to run, the circumstances for

1493
01:29:18,640 --> 01:29:22,240
Speaker 1: that are more favorable now than they would be up

1494
01:29:22,280 --> 01:29:25,200
Speaker 1: say you had a you know, a three or four

1495
01:29:25,280 --> 01:29:28,639
Speaker 1: person race with one or two clear front runners. So

1496
01:29:29,560 --> 01:29:32,680
Speaker 1: just putting that out there, just putting that out there

1497
01:29:32,680 --> 01:29:34,439
Speaker 1: for a little little food for thought. As we go

1498
01:29:34,439 --> 01:29:43,639
Speaker 1: into our weekends. The show ain't over yet, folks, keeping

1499
01:29:43,680 --> 01:30:01,400
Speaker 1: it Frio. It's time for roll call, Facebook dot com,

1500
01:30:01,439 --> 01:30:05,320
Speaker 1: slash buck Sexton for roll Call, and don't forget team

1501
01:30:05,479 --> 01:30:10,200
Speaker 1: Today's uh no, Today's May third. Why am I seeing

1502
01:30:10,200 --> 01:30:15,280
Speaker 1: all this stuff about uh Sinco de Mayo, which is

1503
01:30:15,280 --> 01:30:18,200
Speaker 1: obviously the fifth of May. I was gonna talk about Sinco,

1504
01:30:18,280 --> 01:30:19,960
Speaker 1: I guess because it's on the weekend. That's why people

1505
01:30:19,960 --> 01:30:23,320
Speaker 1: are talking about today. But everybody's working for the weekend.

1506
01:30:24,439 --> 01:30:28,360
Speaker 1: Battle of Puebla is what Sinco de Mayo, not Mexican independence.

1507
01:30:28,560 --> 01:30:32,439
Speaker 1: Battle of Puebla. Just as you're drinking your margaritas, which

1508
01:30:32,439 --> 01:30:35,479
Speaker 1: I've got to say of the vice of the food

1509
01:30:35,560 --> 01:30:38,559
Speaker 1: vices out there, margaritas are kind of high on my list.

1510
01:30:38,560 --> 01:30:41,000
Speaker 1: They're I know, they're terrible for you. I mean the

1511
01:30:41,040 --> 01:30:42,599
Speaker 1: way they make them, with all the sugar and stuff.

1512
01:30:42,760 --> 01:30:47,559
Speaker 1: They're terrible for you, but they are delicious, delicious. I

1513
01:30:47,640 --> 01:30:49,360
Speaker 1: like the salt on the rim of the glass too,

1514
01:30:49,360 --> 01:30:54,560
Speaker 1: the whole thing. A little spice throws some hlapenos in there, see, Senor,

1515
01:30:55,880 --> 01:30:58,160
Speaker 1: I do like margarita is only, like, you know, a

1516
01:30:58,160 --> 01:31:01,639
Speaker 1: good margarita's got like three alleries, maybe three fifty something

1517
01:31:01,680 --> 01:31:04,519
Speaker 1: like that. It's not that bad. It's like, you know,

1518
01:31:04,520 --> 01:31:08,800
Speaker 1: eating eating half a cheeseburger. Um, all right, let's get

1519
01:31:08,840 --> 01:31:11,200
Speaker 1: to our roll call here. Oh wait, the other thing

1520
01:31:11,240 --> 01:31:13,720
Speaker 1: I want to say about the reason sinco demyo, and

1521
01:31:13,840 --> 01:31:15,639
Speaker 1: many of you make fun of me for saying senko,

1522
01:31:16,200 --> 01:31:18,559
Speaker 1: because I had studied French, so it's sank It's not

1523
01:31:18,840 --> 01:31:24,519
Speaker 1: you know sinco, but Sinco demyo is some people say

1524
01:31:25,120 --> 01:31:30,479
Speaker 1: tied into America's success in the Civil War, I believe

1525
01:31:30,479 --> 01:31:34,120
Speaker 1: it or not, because there was a plan from the

1526
01:31:34,160 --> 01:31:41,840
Speaker 1: Emperor of France at the time to send guns to

1527
01:31:41,920 --> 01:31:47,000
Speaker 1: the Confederacy once they had established the French colonization or

1528
01:31:47,040 --> 01:31:51,320
Speaker 1: the French control of the colony of Mexico, and that

1529
01:31:51,400 --> 01:31:54,120
Speaker 1: was the plan. But because of the Battle of Puebla,

1530
01:31:54,280 --> 01:31:57,400
Speaker 1: that got delayed, and then eventually they ended up chopping

1531
01:31:57,439 --> 01:31:58,920
Speaker 1: off that, And I don't I don't if they chopped

1532
01:31:58,880 --> 01:32:00,400
Speaker 1: off has had they might have hung emer shot them,

1533
01:32:00,400 --> 01:32:06,040
Speaker 1: but they killed the French Emperor's puppet governor in Mexico,

1534
01:32:06,120 --> 01:32:09,280
Speaker 1: and then the Mexican people took over but tied into

1535
01:32:09,280 --> 01:32:10,680
Speaker 1: our civil war a little bits what I'm trying to

1536
01:32:10,680 --> 01:32:12,040
Speaker 1: tell you, at least that's what I read today. I

1537
01:32:12,120 --> 01:32:15,120
Speaker 1: don't know. I still haven't read the Shelby Foot Civil

1538
01:32:15,160 --> 01:32:18,240
Speaker 1: War series, so I need to do that. But I

1539
01:32:18,280 --> 01:32:20,320
Speaker 1: need to do about a bajillion other things too. So

1540
01:32:20,520 --> 01:32:22,120
Speaker 1: I'm a busy man. What can I tell you? A team,

1541
01:32:22,120 --> 01:32:25,720
Speaker 1: But you're busy writing in with brilliant thoughts, incisive commentary,

1542
01:32:26,400 --> 01:32:33,880
Speaker 1: witticism's shedding of light, that kind of stuff. Dwayne rights

1543
01:32:34,160 --> 01:32:39,160
Speaker 1: Women's World Cup might actually have a point, the women's

1544
01:32:39,240 --> 01:32:42,080
Speaker 1: US team is infinitely more successful both on the field

1545
01:32:42,120 --> 01:32:46,320
Speaker 1: and generating revenue than the men, who are miserable. The

1546
01:32:46,360 --> 01:32:51,439
Speaker 1: women actually help support the men on are paid significantly less. Dwayne,

1547
01:32:51,720 --> 01:32:56,000
Speaker 1: I do not know if that is true. But if

1548
01:32:56,000 --> 01:32:59,800
Speaker 1: that is true, if your stats, or rather your assertions

1549
01:32:59,800 --> 01:33:03,040
Speaker 1: are correct, then yeah, I'm look. I'm all for it.

1550
01:33:03,200 --> 01:33:08,280
Speaker 1: If the women's World Cup has been a bigger viewing,

1551
01:33:08,320 --> 01:33:10,320
Speaker 1: or rather women's World Cup team has bigger viewing than

1552
01:33:10,360 --> 01:33:13,360
Speaker 1: the American men's World Cup team, then I think they

1553
01:33:13,360 --> 01:33:15,519
Speaker 1: should make more money. And maybe there is sexism at

1554
01:33:15,520 --> 01:33:16,880
Speaker 1: work there. But here's what I would say to you.

1555
01:33:17,400 --> 01:33:20,960
Speaker 1: Is it the case that the ratings are really higher

1556
01:33:21,000 --> 01:33:24,240
Speaker 1: for the women's World Cup team? I doubt that because

1557
01:33:24,360 --> 01:33:28,479
Speaker 1: even the men's assuming they make it into the World Cup,

1558
01:33:28,520 --> 01:33:30,599
Speaker 1: they're playing against the best teams in the world, and

1559
01:33:30,680 --> 01:33:34,320
Speaker 1: the viewership is based not just on the team that

1560
01:33:34,520 --> 01:33:37,120
Speaker 1: you know, the the American team, but also the team

1561
01:33:37,160 --> 01:33:40,040
Speaker 1: they're playing. So, for example, when the US is in

1562
01:33:40,080 --> 01:33:41,760
Speaker 1: the World Cup and they play in the first round

1563
01:33:41,760 --> 01:33:45,960
Speaker 1: a powerhouse like Germany or Brazil, or you're gonna have

1564
01:33:46,080 --> 01:33:49,479
Speaker 1: the whole world watch that match, not just people that

1565
01:33:49,520 --> 01:33:52,000
Speaker 1: support the men's team. But I have to dig into

1566
01:33:52,040 --> 01:33:54,080
Speaker 1: this a little bit, and you seem more up on

1567
01:33:54,120 --> 01:33:58,280
Speaker 1: this than I am. I don't watch much professional level

1568
01:33:58,320 --> 01:34:01,679
Speaker 1: soccer these days, so maybe maybe that is the case.

1569
01:34:01,840 --> 01:34:04,360
Speaker 1: I will say though, that having watched some women's soccer

1570
01:34:04,400 --> 01:34:07,439
Speaker 1: if it's interesting, But it's like watching a men's soccer

1571
01:34:07,479 --> 01:34:11,040
Speaker 1: match at about half speed. So if you prefer that,

1572
01:34:11,880 --> 01:34:19,400
Speaker 1: then that's great. Let's see Kayla Rights clear present danger

1573
01:34:19,600 --> 01:34:22,839
Speaker 1: or is it executive decision? Love the Jack Ryan reference?

1574
01:34:22,920 --> 01:34:25,000
Speaker 1: Love it now. It was clear and present danger. So

1575
01:34:25,080 --> 01:34:31,080
Speaker 1: you got that one right, and there you go. Tom Wrights,

1576
01:34:32,200 --> 01:34:36,559
Speaker 1: buck my men. Tech nine for workout music, Bring back

1577
01:34:36,640 --> 01:34:40,400
Speaker 1: Freestyle Friday with many deep dives. Ps. Dubstep is just

1578
01:34:40,560 --> 01:34:44,880
Speaker 1: disco for the nineties. Love the show Shields High. You know,

1579
01:34:44,960 --> 01:34:48,599
Speaker 1: you may be right about dubstep is really just disco

1580
01:34:48,720 --> 01:34:52,960
Speaker 1: for the nineties. I'm I don't think dubstep is gonna

1581
01:34:52,960 --> 01:34:55,280
Speaker 1: be something that people look back or to listen to

1582
01:34:55,600 --> 01:34:58,679
Speaker 1: with any fondness. But sometimes it gets me a little

1583
01:34:58,680 --> 01:35:01,200
Speaker 1: fired up. You a little fire up for the gym,

1584
01:35:01,240 --> 01:35:04,000
Speaker 1: and I will check out Tech nine. I feel like

1585
01:35:04,040 --> 01:35:07,479
Speaker 1: the Tech nine firearm. You know, it used to be

1586
01:35:07,640 --> 01:35:12,479
Speaker 1: very much kind of associated with the nineties and gang bangers,

1587
01:35:12,479 --> 01:35:14,320
Speaker 1: like I got my Tech nine. You know, people would

1588
01:35:14,360 --> 01:35:18,040
Speaker 1: wrap about it and stuff. But I haven't heard about

1589
01:35:18,040 --> 01:35:21,400
Speaker 1: the Tech nine much anymore. Yeah, I'm not sure, you know.

1590
01:35:21,680 --> 01:35:24,639
Speaker 1: I remember very distinctive designed it had the I don't

1591
01:35:24,640 --> 01:35:26,920
Speaker 1: even know how you describe it, but there's kind of

1592
01:35:27,280 --> 01:35:32,280
Speaker 1: almost like these perforations along the barrel Tech nine. I

1593
01:35:32,680 --> 01:35:35,320
Speaker 1: remember having a water gun that looked like a Tech nine.

1594
01:35:35,360 --> 01:35:37,200
Speaker 1: I mean, you could never do this stuff anywhere. Isn't

1595
01:35:37,160 --> 01:35:40,080
Speaker 1: it amazing how much even just children's toys have changed.

1596
01:35:41,160 --> 01:35:45,439
Speaker 1: I had for a while, a little, a little It

1597
01:35:45,520 --> 01:35:49,920
Speaker 1: was from Chinatown in New York City, and it was

1598
01:35:49,960 --> 01:35:54,519
Speaker 1: a black replica essentially of a clock that fired little white,

1599
01:35:55,000 --> 01:35:59,120
Speaker 1: little white pellets and not very not very powerfully. I mean,

1600
01:35:59,160 --> 01:36:00,760
Speaker 1: it wouldn't even hurt you if you shot somebody in

1601
01:36:00,760 --> 01:36:02,880
Speaker 1: the arm or something with it. But it looked like

1602
01:36:03,080 --> 01:36:04,800
Speaker 1: I mean, it looked like a glock. And unless you

1603
01:36:04,840 --> 01:36:07,360
Speaker 1: really got up close to it. You could never have

1604
01:36:07,400 --> 01:36:09,479
Speaker 1: that stuff anymore, you know what I mean. You could

1605
01:36:09,600 --> 01:36:11,479
Speaker 1: never have these things. It was just a toy. It

1606
01:36:11,520 --> 01:36:13,200
Speaker 1: was a toy they're selling on the street, you know,

1607
01:36:13,240 --> 01:36:16,479
Speaker 1: the toys. Yeah, that had had like the red um

1608
01:36:17,960 --> 01:36:20,320
Speaker 1: you know on the muzzle. It had a little red

1609
01:36:20,360 --> 01:36:22,720
Speaker 1: thing to show that it was but it looked real enough.

1610
01:36:22,880 --> 01:36:25,200
Speaker 1: You never have this stuff anymore. I mean now people

1611
01:36:25,240 --> 01:36:30,200
Speaker 1: think that that you know, super Soakers were you know,

1612
01:36:30,280 --> 01:36:33,320
Speaker 1: are too realistic. Like super Soaker has like a big

1613
01:36:33,640 --> 01:36:36,240
Speaker 1: Neon green Water can gun it. I don't think anyone

1614
01:36:36,320 --> 01:36:39,400
Speaker 1: thinks that it's. Oh but anything that's gun related, it's

1615
01:36:39,479 --> 01:36:41,439
Speaker 1: very scary. But you know, they used to sell all

1616
01:36:41,479 --> 01:36:43,519
Speaker 1: these things. You'd go walking on the streets in New

1617
01:36:43,600 --> 01:36:46,280
Speaker 1: York City, in Chinatown, Times Square, and they sold I'm

1618
01:36:46,280 --> 01:36:49,240
Speaker 1: gonna say, replicas. They weren't. They didn't look exactly like guns,

1619
01:36:49,280 --> 01:36:51,920
Speaker 1: but the toys looked a lot more like guns. When

1620
01:36:51,920 --> 01:36:54,360
Speaker 1: I was growing on the toy guns did absolutely the case.

1621
01:36:55,200 --> 01:36:57,840
Speaker 1: And now which I actually do think that there's something

1622
01:36:57,840 --> 01:37:00,200
Speaker 1: that's that can be kind of dangerous. I agree with

1623
01:37:00,240 --> 01:37:02,680
Speaker 1: the rules that I've changed to some degree. You know,

1624
01:37:02,720 --> 01:37:04,840
Speaker 1: if it's Neon Green, I don't think that anyone really

1625
01:37:04,880 --> 01:37:09,360
Speaker 1: has to worry about it. Adam writes, the quote is

1626
01:37:09,439 --> 01:37:12,960
Speaker 1: dumb and dumber shields high. All right, Adam, all right,

1627
01:37:13,080 --> 01:37:16,080
Speaker 1: you got it? That was Samson night. I was way

1628
01:37:16,120 --> 01:37:22,760
Speaker 1: off Mary Swanson Swammy. I think dumb and Dummer kind

1629
01:37:22,800 --> 01:37:26,040
Speaker 1: of holds up. I think it's pretty funny. I think

1630
01:37:26,080 --> 01:37:28,759
Speaker 1: that that's I did watch some of There's Something about

1631
01:37:28,760 --> 01:37:31,639
Speaker 1: Mary recently. It was on HBO or something, and I'm

1632
01:37:31,640 --> 01:37:36,280
Speaker 1: always amazed by how you could never ever make that

1633
01:37:36,320 --> 01:37:39,679
Speaker 1: movie anymore. I just couldn't do it. You could never

1634
01:37:39,760 --> 01:37:43,639
Speaker 1: make that movie anymore. You would get picketed, you'd get

1635
01:37:43,640 --> 01:37:45,639
Speaker 1: in so much trouble. I'm actually surprised that it even

1636
01:37:45,680 --> 01:37:48,519
Speaker 1: it hasn't kind of gotten the band treatment from some places.

1637
01:37:49,479 --> 01:37:55,360
Speaker 1: All right, let's see what we get here. Eric Wright,

1638
01:37:55,920 --> 01:37:57,720
Speaker 1: oh some stuff that he doesn't want in the role call.

1639
01:37:57,800 --> 01:38:00,439
Speaker 1: So Eric, it won't be in the role call because

1640
01:38:00,479 --> 01:38:02,240
Speaker 1: you asked for it not to be, and we of

1641
01:38:02,280 --> 01:38:06,599
Speaker 1: course respect your wishes. That is how we roll. Pete

1642
01:38:06,680 --> 01:38:10,960
Speaker 1: writes Buck, I missed your history deep dives, oss shields

1643
01:38:11,040 --> 01:38:15,400
Speaker 1: High Pete, I missed them too. There's a tremendous degree

1644
01:38:15,439 --> 01:38:17,280
Speaker 1: of effort that goes into it because I just used

1645
01:38:17,280 --> 01:38:20,640
Speaker 1: to do it on my own and I would like

1646
01:38:20,680 --> 01:38:23,080
Speaker 1: to bring it back, but you know, we have to

1647
01:38:23,120 --> 01:38:25,400
Speaker 1: find a way to make something of a business out

1648
01:38:25,400 --> 01:38:29,400
Speaker 1: of it. And unfortunately, because there's so many podcasts out

1649
01:38:29,400 --> 01:38:32,040
Speaker 1: there these days. For podcasts advertisers, you need to get

1650
01:38:32,080 --> 01:38:34,599
Speaker 1: to a certain critical mass of downloads before you can

1651
01:38:34,640 --> 01:38:40,080
Speaker 1: even get basic advertising going. And that's a long way

1652
01:38:40,120 --> 01:38:42,000
Speaker 1: of saying. You know that for the time and the

1653
01:38:42,080 --> 01:38:44,040
Speaker 1: time out to do history deep dives, it's it's a

1654
01:38:44,080 --> 01:38:48,120
Speaker 1: project of love, not a project of business, if you

1655
01:38:48,160 --> 01:38:50,479
Speaker 1: know what I mean. So to devote the time too,

1656
01:38:50,479 --> 01:38:54,439
Speaker 1: it's a little bit harder unless you know someone somewhere

1657
01:38:54,520 --> 01:38:57,320
Speaker 1: wanted to like sponsor a series of them, and just

1658
01:38:57,400 --> 01:39:00,559
Speaker 1: as a kind of prestige project, that's something we could do.

1659
01:39:01,120 --> 01:39:03,400
Speaker 1: But in terms of just churning them out, I mean,

1660
01:39:03,400 --> 01:39:06,720
Speaker 1: it took me and basically entire weekends just to do

1661
01:39:06,800 --> 01:39:09,040
Speaker 1: one of those things. It's a long process, believe it

1662
01:39:09,160 --> 01:39:10,840
Speaker 1: or not. But I don't want to end. I mean,

1663
01:39:10,880 --> 01:39:12,439
Speaker 1: someone pointed out to me, I can't end on the

1664
01:39:12,439 --> 01:39:15,479
Speaker 1: fall of Constantinople, on the Turk's victory there, and we

1665
01:39:15,479 --> 01:39:17,040
Speaker 1: gotta at least get to them. We got to get

1666
01:39:17,080 --> 01:39:19,719
Speaker 1: to the see Jamalta and some of the other stuff

1667
01:39:19,720 --> 01:39:24,759
Speaker 1: where you know, team Christendom, Western civilization actually wins wins.

1668
01:39:24,800 --> 01:39:30,320
Speaker 1: One Chris right Buck a few days ago, a roll

1669
01:39:30,400 --> 01:39:33,200
Speaker 1: call woman said she got confused while listening to podcast

1670
01:39:33,280 --> 01:39:37,160
Speaker 1: because she heard a different show Mystery solved. Your podcast

1671
01:39:37,360 --> 01:39:40,919
Speaker 1: host showcases other podcast for thirty seconds at the beginning.

1672
01:39:41,520 --> 01:39:43,840
Speaker 1: For some podcasts, it seems like they just play the

1673
01:39:43,880 --> 01:39:47,880
Speaker 1: show instead of highlights. That's confusing, but the dulcet tones

1674
01:39:48,040 --> 01:39:51,759
Speaker 1: of Buck are fighting through. Just warn audience a few times,

1675
01:39:51,760 --> 01:39:54,599
Speaker 1: like given out new email. Eventually people will know, well, Chris,

1676
01:39:54,600 --> 01:39:56,360
Speaker 1: I didn't even know this, So thanks for telling me, man,

1677
01:39:56,360 --> 01:39:58,519
Speaker 1: I appreciate it. Team, we'll hit a quick break. We'll

1678
01:39:58,560 --> 01:40:02,599
Speaker 1: be right back back into the role call that close

1679
01:40:02,640 --> 01:40:05,120
Speaker 1: out the show. And you know, it's a little bitter sweet.

1680
01:40:05,160 --> 01:40:07,519
Speaker 1: I know I say that to you and sometimes I

1681
01:40:07,560 --> 01:40:09,120
Speaker 1: repeat myself a little bit about this. But it's a

1682
01:40:09,120 --> 01:40:11,200
Speaker 1: little bitter sweet on Friday, because while I'm excited for

1683
01:40:11,200 --> 01:40:13,519
Speaker 1: the weekend, I know I'm not going to get to

1684
01:40:13,520 --> 01:40:17,280
Speaker 1: do this show for two whole days, which can be

1685
01:40:17,360 --> 01:40:19,719
Speaker 1: kind of a bummer, you know, because I missed getting

1686
01:40:19,800 --> 01:40:23,120
Speaker 1: hang out with all of you guys. Sheldon, all right, Hey, Buck,

1687
01:40:23,280 --> 01:40:27,080
Speaker 1: love the show. You are my favorite podcast bar none. Sheldon,

1688
01:40:27,160 --> 01:40:31,360
Speaker 1: you have wonderful taste in podcasts. Just heard you talking

1689
01:40:31,400 --> 01:40:34,519
Speaker 1: about the Tom Clancy Patriot Games. Love the book. The

1690
01:40:34,640 --> 01:40:37,400
Speaker 1: movie would have been better had the book not existed.

1691
01:40:37,840 --> 01:40:40,479
Speaker 1: When the movie changed the terrorists victims from Charles and

1692
01:40:40,520 --> 01:40:43,960
Speaker 1: Diana to some no name lord and lady, it's just

1693
01:40:44,040 --> 01:40:47,280
Speaker 1: completely lost its impact for me, just my two cents.

1694
01:40:47,640 --> 01:40:49,320
Speaker 1: By the way, no issues with the sound level on

1695
01:40:49,360 --> 01:40:52,519
Speaker 1: the podcast from iTunes sounds great to me. She'll taih Sheldon.

1696
01:40:52,880 --> 01:40:55,320
Speaker 1: You know, Sheldon, I didn't know. I never read Patriot

1697
01:40:55,360 --> 01:40:57,880
Speaker 1: Games the book, so I didn't even know that was

1698
01:40:57,920 --> 01:41:00,120
Speaker 1: the case. And I would agree with you that by

1699
01:41:00,240 --> 01:41:03,679
Speaker 1: making it some random members of the royal family the target,

1700
01:41:03,720 --> 01:41:07,719
Speaker 1: it just it lacked impact. It did not really resonate,

1701
01:41:07,760 --> 01:41:10,040
Speaker 1: I think, especially with an American audience. We're like, okay,

1702
01:41:10,080 --> 01:41:14,320
Speaker 1: so this is like the Lord of chath Tumdunner or something.

1703
01:41:14,360 --> 01:41:17,439
Speaker 1: I mean, who knows, right, the third, the third Lord

1704
01:41:17,520 --> 01:41:22,680
Speaker 1: of Chesterton and Worcestershire. You know, that doesn't really get

1705
01:41:22,720 --> 01:41:25,599
Speaker 1: anybody all that excited. That certainly didn't get me all

1706
01:41:25,600 --> 01:41:29,000
Speaker 1: that excited. But Harrison Ford does does a good job.

1707
01:41:29,520 --> 01:41:33,680
Speaker 1: And you gotta remember that's in the earlier days of

1708
01:41:33,680 --> 01:41:36,880
Speaker 1: of Edard's Stark from Game of Thrones. That guy, forget

1709
01:41:36,920 --> 01:41:40,920
Speaker 1: his U Sean Bean, that's right. You kill him my

1710
01:41:40,960 --> 01:41:43,479
Speaker 1: baby brother. You know he's all upset about it and

1711
01:41:43,479 --> 01:41:45,360
Speaker 1: the whole thing. Or no, it's not his baby, you

1712
01:41:45,360 --> 01:41:47,080
Speaker 1: know it is his baby brother, that's right. And I

1713
01:41:47,120 --> 01:41:51,479
Speaker 1: mean the guys obviously in his twenties Brandon, Right, Hey,

1714
01:41:51,520 --> 01:41:54,479
Speaker 1: brother Shields. I after listening to you yesterday's show, I

1715
01:41:54,479 --> 01:41:56,840
Speaker 1: figure i'd share this with you. My wife is a

1716
01:41:56,880 --> 01:42:01,479
Speaker 1: registered nurse and volunteers at this crisis pregnancy center. They're

1717
01:42:01,520 --> 01:42:04,560
Speaker 1: having a fundraiser. Here's the link. Please share it. This

1718
01:42:04,800 --> 01:42:07,439
Speaker 1: organization is exactly we need to combat the abortion mills

1719
01:42:07,439 --> 01:42:09,519
Speaker 1: around the nation. Thank you for the sacrifices you make

1720
01:42:09,520 --> 01:42:13,320
Speaker 1: fighting for the Republic Airborne all the way, Brandon, Brandon, Yeah,

1721
01:42:13,360 --> 01:42:15,320
Speaker 1: we will. We'll get the word out on Facebook for

1722
01:42:15,360 --> 01:42:17,800
Speaker 1: this one. This one. And you know, I've been a

1723
01:42:17,840 --> 01:42:20,679
Speaker 1: part of a fundraisers in the past for a crisis

1724
01:42:20,720 --> 01:42:24,599
Speaker 1: pregnancy center in New York City called a VAIL that

1725
01:42:24,880 --> 01:42:28,000
Speaker 1: is doing very very important work in a very liberal place,

1726
01:42:28,680 --> 01:42:31,479
Speaker 1: just trying to help women who are who are scared,

1727
01:42:31,520 --> 01:42:36,320
Speaker 1: who are pregnant scared, help them create a safe and happy,

1728
01:42:36,720 --> 01:42:39,599
Speaker 1: you know, pregnancy, an environment for the baby. That's that's

1729
01:42:39,640 --> 01:42:42,880
Speaker 1: all they do. It's very very important work. So thank

1730
01:42:42,920 --> 01:42:46,280
Speaker 1: you for bringing this one to our attention. Carolyn writes, Hey, Buck,

1731
01:42:47,000 --> 01:42:50,120
Speaker 1: one thing keeps me wondering about the Steel Dussier. If

1732
01:42:50,120 --> 01:42:52,880
Speaker 1: you read this buffoonishly absurd piece of trash, you can't

1733
01:42:52,880 --> 01:42:56,640
Speaker 1: help but wonder how Hiller's campaign paid good money for

1734
01:42:56,760 --> 01:43:00,360
Speaker 1: a piece of scatological trite that looks like it was

1735
01:43:00,400 --> 01:43:03,280
Speaker 1: written by a fifth grader. No offense to fifth graders,

1736
01:43:03,640 --> 01:43:07,080
Speaker 1: But if I were Hillary, I want my millions of

1737
01:43:07,200 --> 01:43:11,599
Speaker 1: dollars back, you know, Carolyn, I've thought a lot about

1738
01:43:11,600 --> 01:43:15,920
Speaker 1: the dossier and all of this stuff that's in it,

1739
01:43:16,240 --> 01:43:20,439
Speaker 1: and the fact that it seems so not credible on

1740
01:43:20,479 --> 01:43:22,960
Speaker 1: a first read, So why why wouldn't they make it

1741
01:43:23,040 --> 01:43:26,719
Speaker 1: a little more honestly, a little more believable, a little

1742
01:43:26,760 --> 01:43:30,080
Speaker 1: more credible. And I think that it's because it was

1743
01:43:30,160 --> 01:43:34,280
Speaker 1: always meant to be looming in the background, and it

1744
01:43:34,400 --> 01:43:38,679
Speaker 1: really wasn't supposed to be something that people went public

1745
01:43:38,680 --> 01:43:40,519
Speaker 1: with in this way. It was supposed to color the

1746
01:43:40,600 --> 01:43:44,120
Speaker 1: thinking of the media behind the scenes and be something

1747
01:43:44,160 --> 01:43:47,880
Speaker 1: that was whispered about but not presented for public view.

1748
01:43:47,960 --> 01:43:51,439
Speaker 1: Necessarily not presented because when it's in public view then

1749
01:43:51,439 --> 01:43:54,519
Speaker 1: it receives public scrutiny. It's much more effective in a

1750
01:43:54,560 --> 01:43:57,400
Speaker 1: lot of ways. For people in newsrooms that are anti

1751
01:43:57,400 --> 01:44:00,439
Speaker 1: Trump across the country say, oh, you know there's that stuff.

1752
01:44:00,439 --> 01:44:02,400
Speaker 1: Oh we can't even we can't even print some of

1753
01:44:02,479 --> 01:44:04,800
Speaker 1: the stuff about Trump, and you know, we can't prove it,

1754
01:44:04,840 --> 01:44:07,200
Speaker 1: but we think it's true. Right, I mean, then it's

1755
01:44:07,760 --> 01:44:10,679
Speaker 1: the material is not tested, the material is not vetted

1756
01:44:10,720 --> 01:44:13,599
Speaker 1: or verified, but it's still out there. It's it's like

1757
01:44:13,640 --> 01:44:16,880
Speaker 1: any other rumor, right, if somebody starts a terrible rumor

1758
01:44:16,920 --> 01:44:20,120
Speaker 1: about somebody, they generally don't want to No one wants

1759
01:44:20,120 --> 01:44:22,040
Speaker 1: to stand up and explain a room full of people

1760
01:44:22,040 --> 01:44:23,959
Speaker 1: what the rumor is. They just want to keep whispering

1761
01:44:23,960 --> 01:44:26,880
Speaker 1: it behind closed doors. And that's a way to undermine

1762
01:44:26,960 --> 01:44:31,880
Speaker 1: somebody and to bring bring down the confidence that somebody has. Um.

1763
01:44:32,240 --> 01:44:34,240
Speaker 1: That's that's what I think the dossier was really about,

1764
01:44:34,240 --> 01:44:35,760
Speaker 1: at least in the early stages. And then when they

1765
01:44:35,800 --> 01:44:39,800
Speaker 1: realized how easily duped the media and the FBI could be,

1766
01:44:40,200 --> 01:44:43,080
Speaker 1: then the people behind it and involved in it were like, well,

1767
01:44:43,160 --> 01:44:44,679
Speaker 1: let's just take this thing all the way and they did.

1768
01:44:46,240 --> 01:44:50,680
Speaker 1: Al writes, I saw Hillary is back post on some

1769
01:44:50,720 --> 01:44:53,400
Speaker 1: site this morning and thought of you, Hello, your Hillary

1770
01:44:53,439 --> 01:44:58,360
Speaker 1: impersonation is so bad, but I love it. Racon brother Al.

1771
01:45:00,040 --> 01:45:02,000
Speaker 1: I know it makes no sense, it sounds nothing like her,

1772
01:45:02,000 --> 01:45:05,639
Speaker 1: but that's the whole point. You know. The Clintons, at

1773
01:45:05,680 --> 01:45:09,280
Speaker 1: least Chelsea and Builds, they're starting a podcast. You know,

1774
01:45:09,400 --> 01:45:14,360
Speaker 1: Bill's gonna have a Podcast's gonna be called how to

1775
01:45:14,400 --> 01:45:17,720
Speaker 1: get real close to ladies like Joe Biden, but not

1776
01:45:17,840 --> 01:45:20,200
Speaker 1: be quite as creepy as Joe Biden, or at least

1777
01:45:20,240 --> 01:45:23,480
Speaker 1: not get caught like he did. They're gonna have a podcast.

1778
01:45:24,160 --> 01:45:26,080
Speaker 1: All these people these days of a podcast. Thinking about

1779
01:45:26,120 --> 01:45:28,080
Speaker 1: most people is like, just like with writing, you know,

1780
01:45:28,200 --> 01:45:30,320
Speaker 1: very few people really should try to write for a living.

1781
01:45:30,400 --> 01:45:32,639
Speaker 1: Very few people should try podcasting for living. It's actually

1782
01:45:32,720 --> 01:45:38,800
Speaker 1: quite difficult. Stetson cool name writes, Hey A Buck, I

1783
01:45:38,920 --> 01:45:40,840
Speaker 1: encourage you to read that New York Times article with

1784
01:45:40,920 --> 01:45:45,320
Speaker 1: progressive lenses. They're trying to whitewash spy gape. I make

1785
01:45:45,360 --> 01:45:48,240
Speaker 1: it seem like it was justified and legit their careful

1786
01:45:48,320 --> 01:45:50,799
Speaker 1: use of an investigator in other terms, or their attempt

1787
01:45:50,880 --> 01:45:53,479
Speaker 1: to make it appear the Intel agencies were justified in

1788
01:45:53,520 --> 01:45:57,840
Speaker 1: their infiltration of the Trump campaign scary stuff, shields high

1789
01:45:58,640 --> 01:46:03,240
Speaker 1: and stetson. You are correct. Don write saying hey Buck,

1790
