Five hours in a tarmac 18 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,279 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, in a plane in a tube in the 19 00:00:56,400 --> 00:01:00,600 Speaker 1: in the blazing heat of Miami, and they sit there 20 00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 1: and they're trapped baking in an oven, no air conditioning, ventilation, 21 00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 1: bathrooms non operational, no water offered five hours. On top 22 00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:14,559 Speaker 1: of what, we got the incident of dragging the poor 23 00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:17,520 Speaker 1: guy down the aisle. Then we got the incident of 24 00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:20,600 Speaker 1: what the poor woman with twins and the guy's ripping 25 00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,760 Speaker 1: the stroller out, And then we got the airline attendant 26 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:26,320 Speaker 1: sticking his finger in the face of the guy that says, hey, 27 00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:28,840 Speaker 1: be nice to the woman with twins and trying to 28 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:30,320 Speaker 1: pick a fight with the guy, and then that guy 29 00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:33,319 Speaker 1: has to defend themselves. It's unbelievable. What is wrong with 30 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 1: these people? I heard the guy settled the guy that 31 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 1: got dragged down the aisle. I guarantee you it was 32 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 1: a thousand times at least more than what it would 33 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:45,039 Speaker 1: have cost to give away. I'll give you ten tickets 34 00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 1: a hotel and a thousand dollars spending cash. Who wants it? 35 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 1: They would have gotten off scott free and so much cheaper. 36 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,360 Speaker 1: What is wrong with people? All right, we'll get to that, 37 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:59,160 Speaker 1: and we will debate today something that should be so 38 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 1: painfully obvious to everyone, which is all these late night 39 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:08,639 Speaker 1: comedians out there. The number of attacks we're now discovering 40 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 1: more than ten times as many attacks aimed at Donald 41 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 1: Trump than all of the Democrats combined during the same 42 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:22,359 Speaker 1: period recent presidents. It's umbelo, But there's something deeper and 43 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 1: more profound than that. The level of hatred and vitriol 44 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 1: and venom, the mean spirited nous, you know, really incest. 45 00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 1: You've got to attack the daughter, a lovely girl of 46 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 1: the president of the United States, and you gotta do 47 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 1: it repeatedly, and you gotta make oral sex jokes, incest 48 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,919 Speaker 1: quote joke. They're not jokes, they're not funny. And if 49 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 1: any conservative ever did this to any anybody in the 50 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 1: Obama administration, which I would find repulsive to it's if 51 00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 1: you'd never survive. Just able standard is so acute, despicable, 52 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 1: and disgusting. Alright, Michelle Obama got credited for the first 53 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 1: time in my adult life. I am proud of my country. 54 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,639 Speaker 1: My husband's winning. I don't want to hear it. I'm done. 55 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:15,519 Speaker 1: But the point is simple, she put herself on the 56 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:19,559 Speaker 1: political arena. Really, you weren't proud of America beating back Nazism, Astism, 57 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 1: imperial Japan, all the blood sweat, American treasure, the cost 58 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 1: for liberty and freedom of every American that fought, bled 59 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 1: and died for the cause of freedom. That didn't make 60 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 1: you proud of your country. Those that fought and marched 61 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 1: and the civil rights movement didn't make you proud of 62 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 1: your country. Those that fought for the Civil Rights Act, 63 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: the Voting Rights Act, those that fought against slavery and 64 00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 1: the evil of its time, those that fought against all 65 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: the evils we faced as a world. Only when Obama 66 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 1: gets elected your husband, that's the only time you're proud. Okay, 67 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:56,119 Speaker 1: she opened herself up. I never heard, I never heard 68 00:03:56,200 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 1: anything similar to what is being said about my Annia. 69 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 1: She had to sue because somebody insinuated, you know, the 70 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: most horrible profession in her past, which was a lie 71 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 1: and other vicious things. You know, just in the last week, 72 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,840 Speaker 1: the horrible thing said about the president's daughter, who happens 73 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:20,040 Speaker 1: to be a lovely woman, a mother of three kids. 74 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 1: You're gonna attack this woman this way, and and and 75 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:28,160 Speaker 1: and where is the outs? But where are the champions 76 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:33,239 Speaker 1: of women's rights? Where are the women's rights champions saying 77 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 1: don't talk about the first daughter this way, don't do it. 78 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: Not a peep? Was Nancy Pelosi, Diane Feinstein, Barbara Boxer, 79 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 1: all these liberal Democrats. Where's Hillary Clinton? Why isn't Hillary 80 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:54,920 Speaker 1: Clinton tweeted out, leave at Avonka Trump alone or whatever 81 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 1: a twitter handle happens. How about leaving her alone? How 82 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 1: about leave at Milania Trump We're at f flotus alone. 83 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 1: How about first lady, you got okay, you got it? 84 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:10,159 Speaker 1: How about leave the ten year old son of the 85 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:15,400 Speaker 1: president alone. How about leave the unborn child of the 86 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 1: president's son and Lara Trump alone? How about leave Kelly 87 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:26,799 Speaker 1: and stop the vicious, vitriolic attacks against Kelly Ann. Where's 88 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton, the champion of women's rights? Yeah, I know, 89 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 1: the same lady that took money from the Soundies. The 90 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 1: treat women horribly and and awful, and women can't drive 91 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 1: and the women are told how to dress, and women 92 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:42,040 Speaker 1: can't travel without a man's approval. Jason, you've gotta stop. 93 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:46,280 Speaker 1: I I don't want to hear it. Those are banned audios. 94 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 1: And just because you're wearing your Air Force uniform today, 95 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 1: which I think looks really cool, you still can't do it. 96 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 1: And where we're where she took money from the Soundias 97 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:59,159 Speaker 1: gaze and lesbians are killed, they're hung, they're thrown off 98 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:04,159 Speaker 1: rules and country. She's taken millions from and and Christians 99 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,640 Speaker 1: and Jews are persecuted. Nobody seemed to care during the 100 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:12,280 Speaker 1: campaign except me about all these contradictions. Hillary, isn't it 101 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:14,600 Speaker 1: time for a woman to be the first time for 102 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:17,280 Speaker 1: a woman to be the president? I don't know, not 103 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 1: maybe Ivanka over you. I'll take anybody over Hillary. At 104 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:27,159 Speaker 1: this point, they don't believe what they say. They're not 105 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:30,720 Speaker 1: champions of women's rights. If you take money from the Saundies. 106 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 1: You know, all the talk about the Russian conspiracy. Nobody 107 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 1: in the liberal media seems to care that Hillary gave 108 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 1: of America's uranium so that the Clinton Foundation was kicked 109 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 1: back millions by people surrounding the deal, or husband doubled 110 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:50,599 Speaker 1: his fees in Moscow in terms of speaking fees. Nobody 111 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:54,599 Speaker 1: cares about that. You know, I know at this point 112 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:58,159 Speaker 1: in this moment in history, and I've been appealing to 113 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: you and trying to make you is key only where 114 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:05,720 Speaker 1: is possible, because I think you need to know the 115 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:09,159 Speaker 1: environment in which we conservatives on radio and the Fox 116 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 1: News Channel work that we're monitored every day. We every 117 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 1: single minute of this show. I know who you are 118 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 1: and where you live. For the most part, I know 119 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 1: the state, the city, people that I know are paid 120 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 1: daily to monitor every minute of this radio show. By 121 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 1: the way, what a total loser you are. You are 122 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 1: a total loser, and you need to get a life. 123 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: Go live your own life. I've got my life. Go 124 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 1: live your life. And if you don't like what I say, 125 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 1: just turn the dial, which we never want anybody to 126 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 1: do it. Don't ever turn the dial in the Sean 127 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 1: Hannity Show or Hannity on the Fox News Channel weeknights 128 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 1: to an easter. You know, I'm just saying sort of 129 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 1: a little hypnotic suggestion there, don't ever turn the dial. 130 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 1: But the bottom line is, we work into these conditions. 131 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 1: Rush works under them. Laura Ingram works under them. The 132 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 1: great One Mark of Then works under these conditions. Any 133 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 1: conservative on TV or radio works under these conditions. Any 134 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 1: of us where we are, there are paid monitors in 135 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 1: the hopes we say something wrong to take us down. Well, 136 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 1: you you don't have to work hard to hear what 137 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:21,280 Speaker 1: Stephen Colbert and Bill Maher saying. Where are the people 138 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 1: that want to take us down? When this is front 139 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 1: page news and a new low that's been hit in 140 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 1: the media. Now some of you will say to me, well, Sean, 141 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 1: I mean, you're the one out there saying you don't 142 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 1: support boycotts. Nope. I support freedom, freedom of speech, and 143 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:44,679 Speaker 1: I support the freedom of you, the American people, to decide. 144 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:48,239 Speaker 1: And I keep warning you that these boycotts will boomerang 145 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 1: back against conservatives, and it will be used because it's 146 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:54,680 Speaker 1: already been used and already being used, but only against 147 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:59,440 Speaker 1: conservatives and not being used against Stephen Colbert or Bill Martin. 148 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 1: I don't want to to be being very very clear here. 149 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 1: I just don't watch their show. Ever. If I happen 150 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,199 Speaker 1: to run across it while I'm flipping the dial, I 151 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 1: quickly move on to the next channel. I have a 152 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 1: thousand channels on Dish TV. How I don't need. I 153 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 1: don't need to watch something I don't like, neither do you. 154 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,719 Speaker 1: You're strong enough. You can press the button. It's not 155 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:25,880 Speaker 1: that hard. You can press buttons, and that's really all 156 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:30,079 Speaker 1: it takes. But I gotta tell you something. I feel 157 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:33,079 Speaker 1: sorry that the Trump family has to live through something 158 00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 1: we've never seen before. We're gonna debate that later Today's 159 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:36,839 Speaker 1: we got the airlines issue, We've got the late night 160 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 1: you know, vile viciousness that is on steroids now that 161 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:45,080 Speaker 1: would never be tolerated if it were conservatives. We've got 162 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:46,959 Speaker 1: you know. But I'll tell you what the biggest story 163 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 1: of the day is. The single biggest story of the 164 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 1: day is very obvious and very clear, and that is 165 00:09:56,920 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 1: we have the singest, single biggest news story I think 166 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 1: in the history of this republic that is now being 167 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 1: ignored by the mainstream media. And it's being ignored to 168 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: a degree that should scare you. And the story that 169 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:18,080 Speaker 1: I'm talking about is, of course, and we had this 170 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,719 Speaker 1: last night John Solomon, and we've been following it and 171 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 1: Sarah Carter Circuit News, and what do we learned last night? 172 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 1: We learned last night that transparency reports by the Obama 173 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 1: administration showed a massive jump and the surveillance and a 174 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:42,320 Speaker 1: masking requests of Americans. It went from six and fifty four, 175 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:45,840 Speaker 1: to be exact, We're first told it was over, now 176 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 1: learned the underreported it's now over twenty two d unmaskings 177 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 1: in an election year, clearly targeting conservatives, those in the 178 00:10:56,679 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 1: Trump campaign, those Trump supporters, Republicans presidential candidates. Ram Paul 179 00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 1: asking the Intel Panel for details on any Obama ror 180 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 1: surveillance because they can get to this. And what this 181 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 1: means is is that by unmasking Americans, what what you 182 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:16,839 Speaker 1: have not learned in spite of everything else. And I'm 183 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:18,440 Speaker 1: gonna go over this in a fine tooth comb. In 184 00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:24,080 Speaker 1: this hour we're watching Sally Yates testify, and all of 185 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 1: this boulognea about blackmail and and General Flynn, they're missing 186 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:34,040 Speaker 1: the biggest point here, you know, beyond the fact that 187 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,719 Speaker 1: you know if Yates was so concerned about lying, she 188 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:41,000 Speaker 1: worked for Eric Holder, caught lying to Congress in the 189 00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:43,520 Speaker 1: Fast and Furious scandal, and and of course we know 190 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 1: James Clapper was called lying to Congress. A lot of 191 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:50,839 Speaker 1: lyning going on here. But the bigger story is that 192 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 1: Sally Yates doesn't you know everything she's saying about General Flynn. 193 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 1: We know because they surveiled him. He was picked up 194 00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 1: in an incidental legal a valance. He was illegally unmasked. 195 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 1: The information was then the the surveillance was then leaked. 196 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:13,680 Speaker 1: In other words, raw intelligence leak for political purposes. That 197 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 1: is a felony, that is a crime, that is a 198 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 1: violation of the Espionage Act. And somebody at the highest 199 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 1: levels of government had to know it. That's what makes 200 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 1: this the biggest scandal ever. And still CNN and NBC 201 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 1: are fixated on, oh, the Russian connection, which there's not 202 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 1: a shred of evidence on now. Susan Rice, James Clapper, 203 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 1: CIA director Brennan Valerie, Jarrett, Ben Rhodes, Sally Yates, and 204 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:45,840 Speaker 1: maybe President Obama need to be asked what did they 205 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:50,439 Speaker 1: know and when did they know it about this dramatic 206 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:57,840 Speaker 1: tripling of unmasking of Americans opposition party opponent connections in 207 00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 1: a presidential election year.

A couple 253 00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 1: of other news items that I want to get to. 254 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna have time later. You've heard me say, 255 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:36,880 Speaker 1: after fifty eight thousand dead in Vietnam and then we 256 00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:41,800 Speaker 1: pull out without winning, it's unbelievable. We send American tracer 257 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 1: our sons and daughters to go fight, bleed and die. 258 00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 1: They do what they're told, They serve their country with 259 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:51,040 Speaker 1: honor and distinction. They're getting the job done, only to 260 00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:55,600 Speaker 1: have that war politicized and we pull out for what 261 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:57,640 Speaker 1: you have to ask the what why did we do this? 262 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:00,480 Speaker 1: And then we do the same thing in Iraq and 263 00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:04,640 Speaker 1: Afghanistan and you know, five thousand dead, many thousands others 264 00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 1: injured and losing their limbs and and literally disfigured fighting 265 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 1: a war that they wanted to fight and that they 266 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 1: did with honor and distinction. Again, the war gets politicized 267 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 1: in Washington, and if you're the mother or father of 268 00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 1: one of these people that died in any of these conflicts, 269 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:23,600 Speaker 1: you're saying, why did I send my son or daughter 270 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 1: to go fight for you when you had no intention 271 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 1: of winning. So it has reconfigured my mind that I 272 00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:34,800 Speaker 1: don't think with Washington we have the will to actually 273 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 1: see any of these actions through. And if we don't, 274 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:40,160 Speaker 1: we cannot send any American to fight, bleed and die. 275 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 1: Where you send, you offer intelligence support or other means 276 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:48,360 Speaker 1: of letting these other countries resolve their own conflicts, protect 277 00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 1: the free flow of oil until we become energy independent, 278 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 1: thank you, Donald Trump, at market prices, and and until 279 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 1: we no longer need to get involved, or if there's 280 00:16:57,240 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 1: a national security imminent natural and security issue, we've gotta 281 00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 1: we obviously have to take care of it ourselves. But 282 00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:07,080 Speaker 1: I'd prefer to do it being fought on a computer 283 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:11,879 Speaker 1: in Tampa and building the new wave of technology, the 284 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 1: new the new advancement of technology that we don't have 285 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 1: to send brave men and women so close in the 286 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,720 Speaker 1: harm's way again, and we're willing to invest that money. 287 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 1: We will get there and we will be ahead of 288 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:26,800 Speaker 1: everybody else. And then when you're that strong and that tough, 289 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:31,399 Speaker 1: and you can fire fifty nine Tomahawk missiles with pinpoint accuracy, 290 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 1: and that's that's a pretty good indication that things are 291 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,240 Speaker 1: gonna be a lot different than nobody's gonna mess with 292 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 1: the US of A. As Toby Keith Song says, we'll 293 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 1: put a boot in your ass if you dare mess 294 00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 1: with the old US of A. And it's not a joke. 295 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:46,800 Speaker 1: We've got to protect liberty and freedom because there are 296 00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:51,440 Speaker 1: those that want to caliphate, want to advance this rigid, sick, 297 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:55,480 Speaker 1: twisted ideology of radical Islam where you convert or you die, 298 00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:59,399 Speaker 1: and no problem strapping bombs on innocent children to go 299 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:02,639 Speaker 1: kill and other innocent men, women and children to go, 300 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:04,479 Speaker 1: you know, in the name of Allah. So you get 301 00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:07,640 Speaker 1: seventy two virgins in heaven. By the way, in case 302 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,880 Speaker 1: you didn't notice, Isis released a video of a Russian 303 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:14,879 Speaker 1: intelligence officers beheading. I've urged people, if you can handle it, 304 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 1: if you can stomach it, that's evil in our time. 305 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:22,760 Speaker 1: That is watching on a on a very small scale, 306 00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:28,399 Speaker 1: what is becoming a modern day holocaust, one person at 307 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:31,959 Speaker 1: a time, or line up people on the beach, simultaneous beheadings. 308 00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:38,440 Speaker 1: That is evil, like Nazi Germany, evil in our time. 309 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 1: You don't think it can happen again. I wrote a book, 310 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 1: Deliver Us from Evil. I don't I probably can't even 311 00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:46,399 Speaker 1: get it in a fifty cent pin now. But in 312 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:49,720 Speaker 1: that book, I chronicle under million human souls killed in 313 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 1: the last hundred years alone human history. Evil exists, and 314 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 1: it just takes and manifests in a different form. Or 315 00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:02,120 Speaker 1: is m fascism, Nazism, communist him you've heard me discuss this. Now. 316 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 1: With that said about Afghanistan and Vietnam, President Trump made 317 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:09,360 Speaker 1: a decision today on the rules of engagement about Isis 318 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,480 Speaker 1: that has Isis now on the run in Iraq. We've 319 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 1: got a chance to recapture that ground that Obama lost 320 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:20,120 Speaker 1: because he pulled out for political purposes. But he's doing 321 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:23,199 Speaker 1: something different, and he just did something that Obama was 322 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:25,960 Speaker 1: never willing to do. A recognize his radical Islam and 323 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:30,880 Speaker 1: be Obama clearly had no intention of fighting radical Islam 324 00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:33,440 Speaker 1: because he wouldn't even say the words radical Islam. But anyway, 325 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:36,440 Speaker 1: as Washington Post points out, Trump has approved a plan 326 00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:39,840 Speaker 1: directly to arm the Kords in the north in northern 327 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 1: Iraq their forces fighting in Syria and Iraq as part 328 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 1: of a US military plan to capture Rocca and Also 329 00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:54,879 Speaker 1: which is a Syrian city that is the Islamic states 330 00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:59,399 Speaker 1: de facto capital, and the Pentagon spokesman said that the 331 00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:02,359 Speaker 1: President made the decision today or yesterday and described the 332 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,439 Speaker 1: Kurdish People's Protection Units as the only force on the 333 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:10,359 Speaker 1: ground that can successfully win in the near future, and 334 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 1: he said no details of the kind of weaponry that's 335 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 1: going to be provided to Curtis Kurdish men and women 336 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:18,439 Speaker 1: that are fighting and that dominates a diverse group of 337 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:22,160 Speaker 1: fighters known as the Syrian Democratic Forces. They've emerged as 338 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 1: the US's premier partner against the Islamic State. So neither 339 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 1: the Trump administration or Barack Obama before it had made 340 00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:34,719 Speaker 1: any secret of their intention uh to give the Syrian 341 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:38,919 Speaker 1: Kurds a primary role in in fighting this war anyway. 342 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:42,679 Speaker 1: So if we're going to fight, let them fight. It 343 00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:47,320 Speaker 1: directly impacts them. And that's why, like I like what 344 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:50,680 Speaker 1: the President is doing with North Korea. We're now deploying 345 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 1: missile defense. That's important. If it gets to the point 346 00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:57,480 Speaker 1: we have to stop i cb M from being made 347 00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 1: and married to Kim Jong UN's new lear weapons that 348 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 1: Bill Clinton allowed him to get. Then at least if 349 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 1: they do fire a nuclear weapon at Seoul, South Korea, Japan, 350 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 1: or even China, we might be able to save hundreds 351 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 1: of thousands of not millions of lives. We might be 352 00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 1: able to But once you allow a rogue regime with 353 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:25,360 Speaker 1: the chubby despot like Kim Jong un to have these weapons, 354 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 1: because you capitulate and you appease and you I'm gonna 355 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:30,399 Speaker 1: get billions of dollars. And they problem is not to 356 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:33,199 Speaker 1: build a nickular weapon. And I can assure you the Merran. Well, 357 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:36,160 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna happen. It happened. It's like this bad 358 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:39,359 Speaker 1: Iranian deal is gonna bite us in the backside ten 359 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 1: times over his news about that. Today in the Washington 360 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 1: Free Beacon, a RAN's quest to develop the capability to 361 00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 1: hit the US with nuclear weapons continues unabated. The Free 362 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:54,119 Speaker 1: Beacons reporting that Iran is launching two new domestic satellites 363 00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 1: into space, according to an announcement by Iranian military leaders. Now, 364 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 1: according to you US national security insiders, well, they actually 365 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:06,879 Speaker 1: believe this is a move to test fire advanced intercontinental 366 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,919 Speaker 1: ballistic missile technology that could be used as part of 367 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:12,720 Speaker 1: a RAN's nuclear weapons program, so that they ever get 368 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:15,879 Speaker 1: nuclear weapons, they'll now have the means of reaching the 369 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 1: continental United States. And by the way, they already have 370 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:21,679 Speaker 1: the means of reaching Israel and wiping them off the 371 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:23,880 Speaker 1: face of the earth, which is something that they frequently 372 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:26,480 Speaker 1: claimed they want to do, which is again evil in 373 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:30,720 Speaker 1: our time, which is why this alliance, the faster we 374 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,240 Speaker 1: we build on what has happened as a result of 375 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 1: Obama's Iranian deal, and and the Saudis, who I still 376 00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:40,680 Speaker 1: find corrupt in the Egyptians Jordanians, the Israelis, the Emirates, 377 00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:43,640 Speaker 1: and the US, and say Great Britain, if we form 378 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 1: an alliance take out a RAN's nuclear sites sooner, it's better. 379 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:49,240 Speaker 1: It's gonna be for the free world. So let me 380 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:52,280 Speaker 1: get to the Sally Yates issue. Remember this is all 381 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:57,720 Speaker 1: about the Fourth Amendment to our Constitution, the right of 382 00:22:57,760 --> 00:23:01,240 Speaker 1: the people that means you to be secure in your 383 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 1: person's houses, papers effects against unreasonable search and seizure shall 384 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:09,639 Speaker 1: not be violated. No warrants shall issue but for probable cause, 385 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:13,520 Speaker 1: supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place 386 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:18,040 Speaker 1: to be searched, in the persons or things to be seized. Now, 387 00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:22,679 Speaker 1: what have we learned. We've learned a lot. This is 388 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 1: the biggest story historically in this republic, and it's being 389 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:32,800 Speaker 1: ignored by the media. Look at what John Solomon and 390 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 1: Sarah Carter are saying to you. If you do a 391 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:41,080 Speaker 1: big deeper dig dive into what happened in the years 392 00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:46,560 Speaker 1: twenty fifteen and the year's twenty sixteen, the number in 393 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:51,720 Speaker 1: twenty fifteen of umaskings was six hundred and fifty four. Well, 394 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:56,720 Speaker 1: that's what the Obama administration reported in twenty six it 395 00:23:56,800 --> 00:24:02,399 Speaker 1: was much higher. Now, all of these amaskings, you know, 396 00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:10,520 Speaker 1: we're happening in a political environment here, so they underreported 397 00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:13,439 Speaker 1: the number. Now we're finding out that it's over. We 398 00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:17,480 Speaker 1: don't know how many. And then you've got Sally Yates. Okay, 399 00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:22,719 Speaker 1: so General Flynn was was incidentally surveiled because the intelligence 400 00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:25,600 Speaker 1: community was doing their job and they were digging up 401 00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 1: intel on the Russian ambassador. It's not a crime for 402 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:33,399 Speaker 1: General Flynn to be talking to his future, you know, 403 00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 1: counterpart in Russia. That's actually normal. Now here's the interesting part. 404 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 1: Once they surveiled the Russian ambassador incidentally pick up Flynn, 405 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,200 Speaker 1: why did they unmask him and identify him? What did 406 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:50,680 Speaker 1: he say? Why did they pick up that intelligence and 407 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:54,159 Speaker 1: then use it to get him fired? Why did they 408 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,119 Speaker 1: then leak? I think it was the Washington Post. I 409 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:59,480 Speaker 1: believe that first had the story who broke the law 410 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:03,840 Speaker 1: and not only unmasked him but then leaked the intelligence 411 00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:07,439 Speaker 1: that was involved in this. All of this is a crime. 412 00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 1: And Sally Yates testifies the FBI hasn't even questioned her 413 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:16,879 Speaker 1: about the Flynn leak. Now she's telling the truth. You know, 414 00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:21,040 Speaker 1: there's something deeply pervasively wrong in the FBI, in the 415 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:24,240 Speaker 1: Deep state. The deep state is up to their eyeballs 416 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:27,200 Speaker 1: and all of this because it shows that Comey could 417 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:30,159 Speaker 1: care less about the only real clime crime we know about, 418 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:35,439 Speaker 1: which is against General Flynn. And it shows that the 419 00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:38,280 Speaker 1: umasking of his name and the leaking of his identity 420 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:41,479 Speaker 1: to the media, that's all a crime. And Sally Yates 421 00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:45,119 Speaker 1: is saying, and James Clapper yesterday that the FBI showing 422 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:47,919 Speaker 1: no interest in the felony committed here. It's like they 423 00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:52,639 Speaker 1: seemed to show no interest in Hillary's illegal server to 424 00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 1: circumvent oversight of Congress their constitutional authority by putting a 425 00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 1: putting a server in a mom and pop shop bathroom 426 00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 1: closet with top secret information and special access program the 427 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:09,439 Speaker 1: highest level of top secret information on the computer. And 428 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:14,080 Speaker 1: Clapper detailed also the intelligence communities on masking spree. And 429 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:16,119 Speaker 1: what he did was he went further than ever before 430 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:19,120 Speaker 1: in his description of the Obama administration's decision to ramp 431 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:23,560 Speaker 1: up their unmasking procedures. Remember the two weeks before Obama leaves, 432 00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:26,159 Speaker 1: he changed the Executive Order twelve Triple three, which allows 433 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:30,040 Speaker 1: sixteen other agencies to get ahold of this intelligence that 434 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:33,720 Speaker 1: nobody else fired too two weeks before him leaving had 435 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:36,720 Speaker 1: access to and Clapper said, the term of masking is 436 00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 1: often misunderstood. It's important to know the context. There are 437 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:42,520 Speaker 1: cases when fully understand the context of the communication that 438 00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:45,320 Speaker 1: has been obtained and the threat that it has posed, 439 00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:48,080 Speaker 1: the consumer of the collected intelligence may ask the identity 440 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:51,080 Speaker 1: of the US person to be revealed. Such requests explain 441 00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:54,320 Speaker 1: why the unmasking is necessary, and that explanation is conveyed 442 00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:56,680 Speaker 1: back to the agency that collected the information. He said, 443 00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:59,080 Speaker 1: it's up to the agency whether to approve the request 444 00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 1: and provide the identity. Clapper added, the identity of the 445 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:05,159 Speaker 1: unmasked person being investigated is only revealed to the official 446 00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 1: who requested it, not a broader audience. Okay, who requested 447 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 1: General Flynn's unmasking then, because that would be the guy 448 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 1: that leaked it. If what Clappers saying is true, the 449 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 1: process of Subject Oversight, Reporting and in the Interest of 450 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:23,720 Speaker 1: Transparency by former office published as a report on the 451 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 1: statistics of how many US persons were unmasked in That 452 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:31,359 Speaker 1: number was dred and thirty four, but we believe it 453 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:33,920 Speaker 1: was higher than that. The identities of U s citizens 454 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 1: permanent residents were found in three thousand nine fourteen intelligence 455 00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:43,240 Speaker 1: reports the n s A distributed last year. Why why 456 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 1: because you better have a justification. And then Clapper torpedo 457 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:51,240 Speaker 1: the seventeen intelligence agency talking point. This is in bright part. 458 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 1: They're in the hitting there in the hearings. You know, 459 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:57,119 Speaker 1: the talking point that seventeen federal agencies have concluded that 460 00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 1: Russia interfered with the presidential election. That was a sucking point. 461 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:04,520 Speaker 1: We have seventeen intelligence agency, civilian and military Hiller, he said, 462 00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:08,399 Speaker 1: we've all concluded these that these espionage attacks, cyber attacks 463 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 1: came from the highest levels of the Kremlin. Did anyone 464 00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:14,920 Speaker 1: notice the Clapper yesterday said, as you know, the i 465 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:19,600 Speaker 1: C was a coordinated product from three agencies, not seventeen 466 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 1: c I A, n S A, FBI, Not all seventeen 467 00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:26,200 Speaker 1: components of the intelligence community. Oh. Later in the hearing, 468 00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:29,640 Speaker 1: Clapper corrected al Franken when Franken claimed all seventeen agencies 469 00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:33,199 Speaker 1: concluded Russia attempt to influence the election. Is NBC and 470 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:35,119 Speaker 1: CNN and New York Time is going to retract that. 471 00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:39,320 Speaker 1: I wish I had time. But Ted Cruz just pummeled 472 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 1: this poor lady yesterday and and by the way, so 473 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:47,880 Speaker 1: did John Cornyn. And you know, the laws are very clear. 474 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:53,720 Speaker 1: Nobody seems to care. This is so bigger than Watergate. 475 00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:56,640 Speaker 1: You know how I was ahead of the curve on Obama. 476 00:28:57,560 --> 00:28:59,480 Speaker 1: Mom My head of the curve here, stay with me. 477 00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:04,760 Speaker 1: I have more insider information than anybody you know on 478 00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:07,840 Speaker 1: radio or TV. Right now. That's all I can say, 479 00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:10,840 Speaker 1: which is why I'm being people trying to take me down, 480 00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:14,440 Speaker 1: which is why I'm under attack, which is why I 481 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 1: better listen to Chuck Schumer said, oh, they'll get you 482 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:19,880 Speaker 1: six ways in Sunday. Well, I respect the intelligence community. 483 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:22,400 Speaker 1: I don't respect the people that didn't respect the laws, 484 00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 1: which is only a half of one percent likely.

There are cases when 513 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:18,880 Speaker 1: to fully understand the context of the communication that has 514 00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:22,520 Speaker 1: been obtained or the threat that is posed, the consumer 515 00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:25,400 Speaker 1: of that collected intelligence may ask the identity of the 516 00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:29,040 Speaker 1: U S person be revealed. Such requests explain why the 517 00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:33,280 Speaker 1: unmasking is necessary, and that explanation is conveyed back to 518 00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:36,680 Speaker 1: the agency that collected the information. It is then up 519 00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:39,480 Speaker 1: to that agency whether to approve the request and to 520 00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:43,120 Speaker 1: provide the identity, and if U S person's identity is revealed, 521 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:46,320 Speaker 1: that identity is provided only to the person who properly 522 00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 1: requested it, not to a broader audience. This process is 523 00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:53,240 Speaker 1: subject to oversight and reporting and an interest of transparency. 524 00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:56,360 Speaker 1: My former office publishes a report on the statistics of 525 00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:59,120 Speaker 1: how many US person's identities are on masked based on 526 00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:01,680 Speaker 1: collection that are heard under sex and seven or two 527 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:03,520 Speaker 1: of the Five Amendment Act, which I'll speak to in 528 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:06,440 Speaker 1: a moment, and in sixteen that number was one thousand, 529 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:09,840 Speaker 1: nine thirty four. On several occasions during my six and 530 00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:11,960 Speaker 1: a half years as d n I, I requested the 531 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:15,680 Speaker 1: identity of US persons to be revealed. In each such instance, 532 00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:18,480 Speaker 1: I made these requests so I can fully understand the 533 00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:22,360 Speaker 1: context of the communication and the potential threat being post 534 00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:24,920 Speaker 1: At no time did I ever submit a request for 535 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:28,320 Speaker 1: personal or political purposes or to vore heuristically look at 536 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 1: raw intelligence, Nor am I aware of any instance of 537 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:35,920 Speaker 1: such abuse by anyone else. Mr Clapper and mich Yates said, 538 00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:39,880 Speaker 1: did either of you ever requests the unmasking of Mr Trump, 539 00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:45,040 Speaker 1: his associates, or any member of Congress? Um. Yes, in 540 00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:49,040 Speaker 1: one case I did that I can. I can, but 541 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:51,880 Speaker 1: I can't discuss with any futher than that. You can't. 542 00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:54,120 Speaker 1: So if I ask you for details, you said you 543 00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:58,520 Speaker 1: can't discuss that is that what you said? Not not here? Okay, 544 00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:00,480 Speaker 1: all right, glad to know what us our two of 545 00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:04,440 Speaker 1: the Sean Hannity Show. That was James Clapper testifying before 546 00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:07,360 Speaker 1: this committee in the last two days. Now. He did 547 00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:11,160 Speaker 1: say one thousand, nine thirty four American citizens were a mask. 548 00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:13,760 Speaker 1: We believe the numbers higher according to Circuit News over 549 00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:17,640 Speaker 1: let's put that aside. Well, that would be up from 550 00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:21,920 Speaker 1: six hundred and fifty four in twenty fifteen. Why were 551 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:25,120 Speaker 1: there why did we have a tripling of the number 552 00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:27,920 Speaker 1: of people unmasked in this country in a one year 553 00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:31,360 Speaker 1: period of time, and it just happens to coincide with 554 00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:35,200 Speaker 1: an election year, and the unmasking happens to seemingly be 555 00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:40,240 Speaker 1: related to all things Trump associates and Republicans in the 556 00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 1: House and the Senate. Now, that is a question that 557 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:45,560 Speaker 1: needs to be answered. Either we had such an increase 558 00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 1: in the need for monitoring and the need for surveillance 559 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:52,560 Speaker 1: that all these other Americans were caught up an incidental 560 00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:57,680 Speaker 1: surveillance and then consequently and subsequently unmasked, Well, we gotta 561 00:33:57,840 --> 00:34:00,400 Speaker 1: we don't have answers to any of this. And of course, 562 00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:03,720 Speaker 1: on top of that, Chuck Grassley gets Clapper to admit 563 00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:06,800 Speaker 1: that the amasking of Trump or one of his associates 564 00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:09,799 Speaker 1: just you know, or a member of Congress. Okay, how 565 00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:12,280 Speaker 1: deep does this go? Let me add one thing before 566 00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:15,880 Speaker 1: we get the senator rampole. The Fourth Amendment originally enforced 567 00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:19,600 Speaker 1: the notion that each man's home is his castle. Sounds 568 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:21,600 Speaker 1: like Ralph Kramton and the Honeymooners, But you know what 569 00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:25,480 Speaker 1: I'm saying. In other words, secure from unreasonable searches and 570 00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:30,279 Speaker 1: seizures of property, by the government protecting against arbitrary assets, 571 00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:33,880 Speaker 1: and is the basis of the law regarding search warrants, 572 00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:38,200 Speaker 1: stopping frisk, safety inspections, wire taps, and any other former surveillance, 573 00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:41,200 Speaker 1: as well as being central to many other criminal law 574 00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:44,680 Speaker 1: topics and privacy law. But the Fourth Amendment is clear 575 00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:48,000 Speaker 1: the right of the people, that would be we the people, 576 00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:52,440 Speaker 1: to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects 577 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:57,040 Speaker 1: against unreasonable searches and seizures shall not be violated, and 578 00:34:57,080 --> 00:35:01,640 Speaker 1: no warrant shaw issue, but upon prob doable cause, supported 579 00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:05,120 Speaker 1: by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to 580 00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:08,120 Speaker 1: be searched in the persons or things to be seized. Now. 581 00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:12,440 Speaker 1: Senator Ram Paul released a bombshell on Friday asking the 582 00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:17,120 Speaker 1: Intelligence Panel for details on any Obama error surveillance and 583 00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:20,400 Speaker 1: is has very strong belief that he himself might have 584 00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:22,560 Speaker 1: been surveiled and unmasked, and the senator from the great 585 00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:25,319 Speaker 1: state of Kentucky joins us, how are you very good, John? 586 00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:27,240 Speaker 1: Thanks for having me. By the way, there's been reports 587 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:28,920 Speaker 1: that has happened to me. I have no idea if 588 00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:30,640 Speaker 1: it's true or not. When you're looking at for yourself, 589 00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:32,799 Speaker 1: would you mind you know, checking on good old Sean 590 00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:35,440 Speaker 1: Hannity in the process. Well, the interesting thing is, it's 591 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:38,640 Speaker 1: not just about me. It's about millions of Americans whose 592 00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:40,920 Speaker 1: phone calls are caught up in this. And you're right. 593 00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:43,319 Speaker 1: The Fourth Amendment said that the government can look at 594 00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:47,000 Speaker 1: your phone conversations, your phone metadata, and your papers in 595 00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:49,600 Speaker 1: your house, but only when they go to an independent judge, 596 00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 1: when they get a warrant with your name on it. 597 00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:54,719 Speaker 1: Right now, what we're doing the intelligence community is is 598 00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:58,400 Speaker 1: vacuuming up all of the phone records on every phone 599 00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:00,960 Speaker 1: call that goes overseas, and then they have these huge 600 00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:04,640 Speaker 1: databases that they're searching. So I've asked them, did they 601 00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:07,680 Speaker 1: search did anybody in the evolved administration search my name? 602 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:11,319 Speaker 1: Did any of them unmask me? And they're supposed to 603 00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:15,359 Speaker 1: be some kind of protection for people in the legislature 604 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:19,000 Speaker 1: because this is the executive branch buying on Congress. So 605 00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:21,440 Speaker 1: we don't want that to happen because they could use 606 00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:23,880 Speaker 1: it to blackmail people or to ruin people like they 607 00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:26,680 Speaker 1: did General Flynn. So you don't want the government to 608 00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:29,560 Speaker 1: add his power without a warrant. There's something called a 609 00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:33,920 Speaker 1: Gates Notification eight members of Congress are notified. It are 610 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:37,880 Speaker 1: supposed to be notified if any member of Congress is surveilled. 611 00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:41,520 Speaker 1: UM Number one. They shouldn't be surveyors surveilling us. They 612 00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:43,839 Speaker 1: shouldn't be listening to our conversations. But if they did, 613 00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:46,840 Speaker 1: they're supposed to be some kind of protection. No one's 614 00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:49,719 Speaker 1: ever notified me that I was, but I have specifically 615 00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:53,920 Speaker 1: and formally asked the intelligence committees, Um, was there a 616 00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:57,720 Speaker 1: Gates notification? Because if there wasn't, maybe it didn't happen, 617 00:36:57,840 --> 00:37:00,279 Speaker 1: But it also could be maybe the surveillance of the 618 00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:03,600 Speaker 1: surveillance the watchers of the watchers, maybe you're not watching 619 00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:06,800 Speaker 1: closely enough. Let me just give you the numbers that 620 00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:10,080 Speaker 1: that CIRCA is reporting and and even the Clapper acknowledged 621 00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:13,080 Speaker 1: in these hearings, and that is from the n s A. 622 00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:16,560 Speaker 1: In other words, the number of unmasking requests that were 623 00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:20,120 Speaker 1: granted by the n s A from fifteen to twenty sixteen. 624 00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:24,239 Speaker 1: Now he's saying nineteen hundred and fifty four. I believe something, 625 00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:26,360 Speaker 1: but that's up from six hundred and fifty four. And 626 00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:30,880 Speaker 1: now now I'll explain to the audience. You can explain 627 00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:34,279 Speaker 1: in your own words if somebody is picked up on 628 00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:38,400 Speaker 1: a legitimate surveillance mission and where they're surveilling in the 629 00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:42,040 Speaker 1: case of Mike Flynn, the Russian ambassador, and it's an 630 00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:44,440 Speaker 1: incidental pickup of an American because they don't have a 631 00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:47,839 Speaker 1: warrant to wire tap or surveill on American citizen without 632 00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:50,239 Speaker 1: probable cause. That's where the Fourth Amendment comes in. They're 633 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:53,279 Speaker 1: supposed to be a process called minimization. And I am 634 00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:55,880 Speaker 1: told by Devin Nunez, who is the head of the 635 00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:58,000 Speaker 1: Intel Committee in the House, that they're supposed to also 636 00:37:58,040 --> 00:38:00,640 Speaker 1: when they write up any American then not supposed to 637 00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:03,360 Speaker 1: identify the American, and they only refer in the report 638 00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:06,520 Speaker 1: to a American And to then go out and request 639 00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:09,319 Speaker 1: at the top levels of the intelligence community who those 640 00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:12,880 Speaker 1: individuals are that were caught up an incidental surveillance is 641 00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:16,840 Speaker 1: very unusual, but this seems to have become standard operating 642 00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:20,640 Speaker 1: procedure in an election year, impacting all of those around 643 00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:23,279 Speaker 1: the president and all of those like yourself in the 644 00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:25,640 Speaker 1: Republican Party and those running for president. And there have 645 00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:28,520 Speaker 1: been former members of the National Security Council have said 646 00:38:28,560 --> 00:38:31,960 Speaker 1: that they never unmasked anybody. So if Susan Rice was 647 00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:35,000 Speaker 1: going along unmasking people and the Trump administration or the 648 00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:39,480 Speaker 1: upcoming Trump administration. It's a little bit of a stretch 649 00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:41,640 Speaker 1: for her to try to prove that this was not political, 650 00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:44,719 Speaker 1: since it isn't really part of her job. Now she says, oh, 651 00:38:44,760 --> 00:38:48,239 Speaker 1: I was investigating the Russian connection. That's not her job either. 652 00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:50,919 Speaker 1: That's the FBI's job if there is such a problem. 653 00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:52,840 Speaker 1: But you have to realize that for all of this 654 00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:56,160 Speaker 1: breathless stuff all over the networks talking about General Flynn, 655 00:38:56,840 --> 00:39:00,120 Speaker 1: that what they did to General Flynn was illegal and 656 00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:03,000 Speaker 1: what he did and it was a it was a 657 00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:06,560 Speaker 1: it was a without question of crime and a felony. 658 00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:09,120 Speaker 1: But to tell you the truth, everything they're accusing Flynn 659 00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:13,280 Speaker 1: of discussing sanctions with the Russians is not a crime. 660 00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:16,200 Speaker 1: You can say it's inadvisable. You can say should have 661 00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:19,279 Speaker 1: been more forthcoming with the Trump administration, that's why he 662 00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:21,880 Speaker 1: was let go. But you can also say that it 663 00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:25,160 Speaker 1: is absolutely against the law to listen to conversations of 664 00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:27,600 Speaker 1: high ranking This means they could be listening to the 665 00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:30,239 Speaker 1: President when he talks to the Russian ambassador. Are we 666 00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:33,320 Speaker 1: really going to let the intelligence community have the power 667 00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:35,719 Speaker 1: to listen to the president and then blackmail or try 668 00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:39,480 Speaker 1: to ruin the president. We cannot have a rogue intelligence 669 00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:42,200 Speaker 1: community that can do whatever they want. They have to 670 00:39:42,239 --> 00:39:44,759 Speaker 1: be reined in. And most of the media, because they 671 00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:48,120 Speaker 1: hate Trump so much, are unwilling to look at the biggest, 672 00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:51,080 Speaker 1: hugest scandal right in front of their nose, and that 673 00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:55,719 Speaker 1: is spying on Americans and then basically ruining them by 674 00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:58,439 Speaker 1: releasing it to the media. How big do you think 675 00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:01,920 Speaker 1: this is and how high? For example, Susan Rice won't testify. 676 00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:05,120 Speaker 1: That should disturb everybody. But then you've got Clapper, who 677 00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:07,160 Speaker 1: I think is not being asked the right questions. And 678 00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:09,880 Speaker 1: Brennan needs to be sat down, and Comey needs to 679 00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:12,120 Speaker 1: be sat down, and Jarrett needs to be sat down, 680 00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:15,440 Speaker 1: and Rhods needs to be sat down, and ultimately Obama 681 00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:17,960 Speaker 1: needs to be sat down. And will only I think 682 00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:20,239 Speaker 1: you'll only get to the bottom of this if you 683 00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:23,279 Speaker 1: request information from all three branches of government. So on 684 00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:26,760 Speaker 1: my request to know whether or not the intelligence community 685 00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:30,800 Speaker 1: was unmasking or queerying my name, We've asked the House 686 00:40:30,840 --> 00:40:34,080 Speaker 1: Intel Committee, the Senate Intel Committee, but I've also asked 687 00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:36,440 Speaker 1: the White House because they have access to the logs 688 00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:39,480 Speaker 1: of the previous White House. I think there are many 689 00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:42,920 Speaker 1: people in government that will do anything they can to 690 00:40:43,080 --> 00:40:46,799 Speaker 1: protect the enormous powers of the Intelligence Committee, even if 691 00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:50,000 Speaker 1: it means your privacy has traveled upon. This is such 692 00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:54,040 Speaker 1: a grave, you know, invasion of our privacy that we 693 00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:56,879 Speaker 1: have to we have to be concerned with this. Ron 694 00:40:56,880 --> 00:40:59,520 Speaker 1: Widden and I have been talking about backdoor searches for 695 00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:02,160 Speaker 1: a year. Is now that as many as a million 696 00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:06,320 Speaker 1: Americans can have their phone conversations recorded in a backdoor 697 00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:10,319 Speaker 1: fashion or their metadata collected in a backdoor fashion. And 698 00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:13,200 Speaker 1: this can be many innocent, mostly innocent Americans who just 699 00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:15,880 Speaker 1: senator phone call with a foreigner. I've had on this 700 00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:18,919 Speaker 1: program numerous times. Bill Benny, he was a whistle blower 701 00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:21,759 Speaker 1: at the ns A thirty plus years of service. And 702 00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:24,160 Speaker 1: he said to me, you correct him if he's wrong. 703 00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:29,319 Speaker 1: Every phone call, every text, every email is picked up 704 00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:32,840 Speaker 1: and collected and metadata stored in places like Salt Lake City. 705 00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:35,640 Speaker 1: And realized that is that true? Realized that if you 706 00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:38,719 Speaker 1: cross them, you're a target? Is that true? Yet? Well, 707 00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:40,680 Speaker 1: for a while we were collecting it all I'm putting 708 00:41:40,680 --> 00:41:43,719 Speaker 1: in Utah now they're uh not collecting it. They they're 709 00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:47,560 Speaker 1: not supposed to be collecting it under one particular part 710 00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:49,759 Speaker 1: of the intelligence law. But there's another part of the 711 00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:54,040 Speaker 1: intelligence law called twelve three three three twelve triple three. 712 00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:56,640 Speaker 1: Under that part of the guys, I think you may 713 00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:59,080 Speaker 1: be right, but they won't tell me. They won't tell 714 00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:02,320 Speaker 1: any representatives other than about people what they're doing. Twelve 715 00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:04,799 Speaker 1: triple three is the Executive of Order that two weeks 716 00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:07,680 Speaker 1: before Obama left office, he expanded its powers so that 717 00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:10,600 Speaker 1: the intelligence can be shared with sixty and other agencies, 718 00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:13,360 Speaker 1: which then makes it that more likely impossible they can 719 00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:16,000 Speaker 1: leak it without getting caught. Ran Paul, stay right there. 720 00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:17,440 Speaker 1: We gotta take a break. We'll come back more with 721 00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:20,520 Speaker 1: the senator from Kentucky. Well also ask him about healthcare 722 00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:24,040 Speaker 1: and the economy and much much more. Uh. And the president, 723 00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:26,040 Speaker 1: by the way, arming the Kurds, which is some big 724 00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:31,040 Speaker 1: news today right as we continue with Senator Rand Paul. 725 00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:34,200 Speaker 1: And Senator Paul has gone out there. He's requesting information 726 00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:37,239 Speaker 1: on whether or not Obama his administration. And that would 727 00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:40,319 Speaker 1: mean Susan Rice and James Clapper and Brennan and call 728 00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:43,759 Speaker 1: me and Jared and Rhodes and maybe others were responsible 729 00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:46,080 Speaker 1: for surveillance. You know, you said something pretty scary in 730 00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:47,640 Speaker 1: the last segment, and I let it go, and I 731 00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:49,200 Speaker 1: need to pick up on it. He said, Oh, you 732 00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:52,040 Speaker 1: better not talk about the intelligence agency because they'll come 733 00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:54,839 Speaker 1: after you. Now here's my question, because Chuck Schumer said 734 00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:57,719 Speaker 1: the same thing to to President Trump. Now, I happen 735 00:42:57,760 --> 00:43:00,320 Speaker 1: to respect the intelligence community, and I were back to 736 00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:02,960 Speaker 1: honor the work that they do. It's so key to 737 00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:06,000 Speaker 1: our national security and defense. But I'm only critical of 738 00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:09,239 Speaker 1: people that may have abused the power that we give 739 00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:12,840 Speaker 1: them and violated the law. And you're suggesting, as his 740 00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:15,480 Speaker 1: Chuck Schumer, that if you speak out against the abuse 741 00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:18,360 Speaker 1: of a law or the misuse of intelligence gathering, that 742 00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:20,799 Speaker 1: somehow you become a target. Am I reading you right 743 00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:23,919 Speaker 1: on it? I think President Trump and General Flynn were 744 00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:26,239 Speaker 1: both critics of the intelligence community, and I think that 745 00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:30,440 Speaker 1: the intelligence community took Flynn down. Flynn did not, to 746 00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:34,280 Speaker 1: anybody's account, so far, break any law. He talked about 747 00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:37,279 Speaker 1: sanctions with the Russians in a private phone call. It's 748 00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:39,640 Speaker 1: not against the law. You can say should or shouldn't 749 00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:43,080 Speaker 1: have You can disagree with lessening or increasing sanctions. But 750 00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:45,960 Speaker 1: it's not against the law for the incoming National Security 751 00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:50,279 Speaker 1: Council chair to talk to someone about public policy. It's 752 00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:52,560 Speaker 1: just not against the law. But they took him down 753 00:43:52,600 --> 00:43:54,360 Speaker 1: and they found out that he was So wait a minute, 754 00:43:54,400 --> 00:43:56,279 Speaker 1: what you're saying is what Chuck Schumer said. Let me 755 00:43:56,320 --> 00:43:59,080 Speaker 1: remind people what Chuck sup as an elect latest latest 756 00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:02,719 Speaker 1: unsolicited announcement on the intelligence community. This was history just 757 00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:04,839 Speaker 1: a little while ago tonight, and you see the scare 758 00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:08,880 Speaker 1: quotes there. The intelligence briefing on so called Russian hacking 759 00:44:09,239 --> 00:44:12,280 Speaker 1: was delayed until Friday, perhaps more time needed to build 760 00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:17,920 Speaker 1: a case. Very strange. He's taking these shots, antagonisms, taunting 761 00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:21,399 Speaker 1: to the intelligent. You take on the intelligence community, they 762 00:44:21,440 --> 00:44:23,840 Speaker 1: have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you. 763 00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:28,160 Speaker 1: So even for a practical, supposedly hard nosed businessman, he's 764 00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:30,359 Speaker 1: being really dumb to do this. What do you think 765 00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:32,920 Speaker 1: the intelligence community would do if they were I don't know, 766 00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:36,120 Speaker 1: but I from what I am told, they are very 767 00:44:36,239 --> 00:44:39,719 Speaker 1: upset with how he has treated them and talked about them. Well, 768 00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:42,759 Speaker 1: I mean, he's basically saying that they will crush you 769 00:44:42,960 --> 00:44:45,879 Speaker 1: if you have if you express your first Amendment right, 770 00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:49,200 Speaker 1: that maybe some people misuse their power, that that that 771 00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:53,400 Speaker 1: admission by Schumer is truly alarming. It alarms even me 772 00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:56,640 Speaker 1: because I tend to believe that. But here's a guy 773 00:44:56,680 --> 00:44:59,440 Speaker 1: who's one of the privileged eight. Only eight people in 774 00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:01,960 Speaker 1: Congress are allowed to know most of the things that 775 00:45:02,040 --> 00:45:04,880 Speaker 1: go on in our intelligence community. And he's willing to 776 00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:08,160 Speaker 1: admit that it's very, very dangerous to go against the 777 00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:11,359 Speaker 1: intelligence community that worries me for my country, that they've 778 00:45:11,360 --> 00:45:14,120 Speaker 1: gotten so much power that it's out of hand. The 779 00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:16,719 Speaker 1: second branch of government, really, depending on how you look 780 00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:18,920 Speaker 1: at the first branch of government, Congress is supposed to 781 00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:22,040 Speaker 1: oversee the executive branch. And so what we're supposed to 782 00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:24,840 Speaker 1: do is to say, no one can get that much power. 783 00:45:25,040 --> 00:45:26,840 Speaker 1: And I'm like you, I don't doubt most of the 784 00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:30,479 Speaker 1: people's patriotism. The people in the intelligence community want what's 785 00:45:30,480 --> 00:45:33,200 Speaker 1: best for our country and are protecting it. But in 786 00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:35,600 Speaker 1: their fervor, could they let their guard down and not 787 00:45:35,680 --> 00:45:38,160 Speaker 1: be objective about civil librities in the Bill of Rights 788 00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:41,560 Speaker 1: absolutely doesn't have to be at the highest levels. Though 789 00:45:41,560 --> 00:45:43,440 Speaker 1: this is not a low level and s a person 790 00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:45,799 Speaker 1: this is this is a top level person has to 791 00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:48,960 Speaker 1: be Here's the problem. We're talking about unmasking. When the 792 00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:52,120 Speaker 1: information comes in as raw data, it's not mask at all. 793 00:45:52,520 --> 00:45:55,319 Speaker 1: Most of the FBI is able to see that. So 794 00:45:55,400 --> 00:45:58,239 Speaker 1: let's say there's just one bad apple over there who 795 00:45:58,320 --> 00:46:02,720 Speaker 1: hates Trump and he sees something that is raw data 796 00:46:02,920 --> 00:46:05,560 Speaker 1: and Americans names are listed in it when it gets 797 00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:08,200 Speaker 1: put in an intelligence report. What if that person tips 798 00:46:08,239 --> 00:46:11,080 Speaker 1: off Susan Rice, and Susan Rice says, m M, maybe 799 00:46:11,120 --> 00:46:13,520 Speaker 1: I should ask to unmask this one. That may well 800 00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:16,000 Speaker 1: have been what happened. And the rumors are that what 801 00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:18,799 Speaker 1: happened is that she was tipped off to ask for 802 00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:23,280 Speaker 1: the unmasking on Flynn and others, and so she won't testify, 803 00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:25,560 Speaker 1: so we don't know if she did the unmasking. She 804 00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:28,040 Speaker 1: swears she didn't release it to the media. I don't 805 00:46:28,040 --> 00:46:30,160 Speaker 1: believe that she talked to release it to the media. 806 00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:33,240 Speaker 1: I listen, that had to come from the top level. 807 00:46:33,360 --> 00:46:35,239 Speaker 1: We're not going to let go. And I guess you know, 808 00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:37,800 Speaker 1: my life is about to be ruined or potentially according 809 00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:40,240 Speaker 1: to Chuck Schumer, because they'll get me six ways in Sunday. 810 00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:42,280 Speaker 1: But I'm just want to get to the truth and 811 00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:45,040 Speaker 1: and we have constitutional rights, Senator, and we got to 812 00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:47,080 Speaker 1: protect him. Thank you, my friend, and we'll continue to 813 00:46:47,080 --> 00:46:50,200 Speaker 1: follow this story. It's unbelievable, Senator ram Paul. The Great 814 00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:54,279 Speaker 1: State of Kentucky. One Shawn is a toll free telephone number. 815 00:46:54,320 --> 00:46:56,600 Speaker 1: When we come back, news, round up, information overload, our 816 00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:05,919 Speaker 1: holding them accountable. Sean gets the answers no one else does. 817 00:47:06,719 --> 00:47:11,479 Speaker 1: America deserves and know the truth about Congress. I don't 818 00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:13,520 Speaker 1: mean to interrupt you, but this is important to me. 819 00:47:13,880 --> 00:47:18,319 Speaker 1: How did the conversation between the Russian ambassador and Mr 820 00:47:18,400 --> 00:47:20,799 Speaker 1: Flynn make it to the Washington Post? Which one of us? 821 00:47:20,840 --> 00:47:25,880 Speaker 1: You ask? That's a great question all this I would 822 00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:27,360 Speaker 1: like to know that I don't. I don't know the 823 00:47:27,360 --> 00:47:29,759 Speaker 1: answer to that, nor do I know the answer to that. 824 00:47:30,120 --> 00:47:32,760 Speaker 1: UM we told him. The third reason was this because 825 00:47:32,760 --> 00:47:36,200 Speaker 1: we were concerned that the American people had been misled 826 00:47:36,600 --> 00:47:39,600 Speaker 1: about the underlying conduct and what General Flynn had done. 827 00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:43,399 Speaker 1: And additionally that we weren't the only ones that knew 828 00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:47,080 Speaker 1: all of this, that the Russians also knew about what 829 00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:51,120 Speaker 1: General Flynn had done, and the Russians also knew that 830 00:47:51,239 --> 00:47:54,880 Speaker 1: General Flynn had misled the Vice President and others, because 831 00:47:54,880 --> 00:47:56,799 Speaker 1: in the media accounts it was clear from the Vice 832 00:47:56,800 --> 00:48:00,000 Speaker 1: President and others that they were repeating what General Flynn 833 00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:02,719 Speaker 1: and had told them, and that this was a problem 834 00:48:02,840 --> 00:48:05,719 Speaker 1: because not only did we believe that the Russians knew this, 835 00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:10,040 Speaker 1: but that they likely had proof of this information, and 836 00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:13,920 Speaker 1: that created a compromise situation, a situation where the National 837 00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:18,560 Speaker 1: Security Advisor essentially could be blackmailed by the Russians. Finally, 838 00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:21,440 Speaker 1: we told them that we were giving them all of 839 00:48:21,480 --> 00:48:25,440 Speaker 1: this information so that they could take action the action 840 00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:28,920 Speaker 1: that they deemed appropriate. Um. I remember that Mr McGahn 841 00:48:28,960 --> 00:48:31,320 Speaker 1: asked me whether or not General Flynn should be fired, 842 00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:33,560 Speaker 1: and I told him that that really wasn't our call, 843 00:48:33,680 --> 00:48:35,520 Speaker 1: that was up to them, but that we were giving 844 00:48:35,560 --> 00:48:38,080 Speaker 1: them this information so that they could take action. All right, 845 00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:41,200 Speaker 1: glad you whether Sean Hannity Show one, Shawn as A 846 00:48:41,239 --> 00:48:43,600 Speaker 1: told free telephone number twenty four now until the top 847 00:48:43,640 --> 00:48:46,120 Speaker 1: of the hour. Sally Yates in her testimony, what we're 848 00:48:46,160 --> 00:48:49,279 Speaker 1: not getting to here is Lindsey Graham sucks up to 849 00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:52,720 Speaker 1: this woman. It's so frustrating to me is if in fact, 850 00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:55,600 Speaker 1: there was surveillance of the Russian ambassador, which we know 851 00:48:55,680 --> 00:48:58,040 Speaker 1: to be true, and if in fact there was an 852 00:48:58,080 --> 00:49:01,600 Speaker 1: incidental pickup of General Flynn, which we now know is true, 853 00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:05,400 Speaker 1: and if in fact there was no minimization process taken, 854 00:49:05,440 --> 00:49:08,640 Speaker 1: which is the general protocol and procedures that are supposed 855 00:49:08,680 --> 00:49:11,439 Speaker 1: to be in place, and in fact, how this all 856 00:49:11,520 --> 00:49:14,000 Speaker 1: became public and was leaqual we don't know how it leaked. 857 00:49:14,040 --> 00:49:16,440 Speaker 1: In other words, that is a felony in a violation 858 00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:19,360 Speaker 1: of the Espionage Act. And it was also the Obama 859 00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:23,319 Speaker 1: administration that in fact had vetted General Flynn. Now, these 860 00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:26,200 Speaker 1: are very important points. Nobody seems to get into the 861 00:49:26,200 --> 00:49:29,000 Speaker 1: bottom of here. Anyway, Joining us now, a good friend 862 00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:31,480 Speaker 1: of the program, Our good friend Patrick J. Buchannan, one 863 00:49:31,480 --> 00:49:33,759 Speaker 1: of the best writers in the country. And he's been 864 00:49:33,800 --> 00:49:37,080 Speaker 1: there through the Nixon administration, the the Reagan administration. He's 865 00:49:37,080 --> 00:49:40,840 Speaker 1: been in all the political wars. Uh really pushing for 866 00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:44,960 Speaker 1: a a pro blue collar Republican party for many, many 867 00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:48,600 Speaker 1: years on issues of trade and non interventionism and other issues. Anyway, 868 00:49:48,640 --> 00:49:51,440 Speaker 1: his brand new book, Nixon's White House Wars, the battles 869 00:49:51,480 --> 00:49:54,760 Speaker 1: that made and broke a president and divided America forever. 870 00:49:54,920 --> 00:49:57,279 Speaker 1: You know, Pat, as I look at your new book 871 00:49:57,400 --> 00:50:00,320 Speaker 1: and through the prism of where we are with President Rump, 872 00:50:00,440 --> 00:50:04,319 Speaker 1: an unhinged conspiracy theories and even Sally Yates there, you know, 873 00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:08,200 Speaker 1: ignoring what is the elephant in the room, the surveillance, 874 00:50:08,239 --> 00:50:12,040 Speaker 1: unmasking and leaking of intelligence which is illegal. Um, it 875 00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:15,560 Speaker 1: seems that we are is devided more even then, more 876 00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:18,160 Speaker 1: even now than then. You know, I think it's quite true. 877 00:50:18,200 --> 00:50:20,840 Speaker 1: And uh, you know, Nixon ended badly, but when he 878 00:50:20,920 --> 00:50:23,799 Speaker 1: came in, he faced the same situation that Donald Trump did, 879 00:50:23,920 --> 00:50:27,120 Speaker 1: the relentless hostility of the media, the opposition of the 880 00:50:27,200 --> 00:50:29,479 Speaker 1: deep state in d C. And what he was trying 881 00:50:29,520 --> 00:50:32,080 Speaker 1: to do, and what you're talking about here, I think 882 00:50:32,200 --> 00:50:36,319 Speaker 1: is is very important. There's there's two alleged scandals here. 883 00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:40,520 Speaker 1: One is did the Trump administration colluded with Russia to 884 00:50:40,600 --> 00:50:44,120 Speaker 1: interfere and get all those emails out and damage Hillary Clinton? 885 00:50:44,560 --> 00:50:48,239 Speaker 1: Every single intelligence person and FBI chief who has been 886 00:50:48,320 --> 00:50:51,200 Speaker 1: up there for the last ten months has said no, 887 00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:54,560 Speaker 1: we have no evidence of that. And the press is 888 00:50:54,600 --> 00:50:58,840 Speaker 1: pursuing that meanwhile, ignoring what is going on, which is 889 00:50:58,880 --> 00:51:02,680 Speaker 1: the deep state lead to damage Trump falsely in some cases, 890 00:51:03,200 --> 00:51:06,640 Speaker 1: and they're not pursuing the unmasking of individuals and was 891 00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:11,840 Speaker 1: the Trump or campaign really basically not wire tapped but 892 00:51:11,960 --> 00:51:15,879 Speaker 1: surveyed in various ways, And we're individuals unmasked and why 893 00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:19,719 Speaker 1: and who did it? And so that's the second scandal, 894 00:51:19,760 --> 00:51:22,239 Speaker 1: it seems to me, and the first it looks like 895 00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:25,440 Speaker 1: us for our very dry hole. Well, Pat, look at 896 00:51:25,480 --> 00:51:28,040 Speaker 1: what we advanced last night. And if you want to 897 00:51:28,040 --> 00:51:32,640 Speaker 1: look at an absolute number that the unmasking requests granted 898 00:51:32,920 --> 00:51:37,080 Speaker 1: by the n s A from you go from six 899 00:51:37,160 --> 00:51:41,680 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty. Now, either we had the single greatest 900 00:51:41,800 --> 00:51:45,200 Speaker 1: increase in terrorist activity and potential threat to this country, 901 00:51:45,239 --> 00:51:49,480 Speaker 1: which would which would authorize legitimate surveillance, or we have 902 00:51:49,960 --> 00:51:53,120 Speaker 1: in an election year an opposition party being surveilled for 903 00:51:53,160 --> 00:51:56,640 Speaker 1: political purposes, which, if we're going to talk about Nixon 904 00:51:56,680 --> 00:52:01,080 Speaker 1: and controversies, um, this would make water look like you know, 905 00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:07,040 Speaker 1: a kindergarten class versus you know, a law school, uh 906 00:52:07,280 --> 00:52:09,480 Speaker 1: l s, a t exam or something. Well, you know, 907 00:52:09,600 --> 00:52:12,520 Speaker 1: you're you're exactly correct here. Look, the Nixon thing was 908 00:52:12,560 --> 00:52:15,839 Speaker 1: about five guys broke into the National Committee. Nixon didn't 909 00:52:15,920 --> 00:52:18,640 Speaker 1: order that, it was done by his campaign. He did 910 00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:21,280 Speaker 1: try to save those guys. But if this is true, 911 00:52:21,920 --> 00:52:26,359 Speaker 1: if there has been a systematic effort to deliberately unmasked 912 00:52:26,360 --> 00:52:30,319 Speaker 1: individuals who made conversations with Russians or any connection with 913 00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:33,319 Speaker 1: them in order to get the goods on them and 914 00:52:33,400 --> 00:52:37,280 Speaker 1: defeat the opposition here, that is a far more serious 915 00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:41,000 Speaker 1: graver matter. What astounds me, Sewan is why we cannot 916 00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:45,000 Speaker 1: get to the bottom of exactly who was unmasked, who 917 00:52:45,080 --> 00:52:48,200 Speaker 1: was who made the orders, where the materials went, who 918 00:52:48,200 --> 00:52:50,640 Speaker 1: wrote up the transcripts, who leaked them to the press. 919 00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:53,680 Speaker 1: Leaks to the press like that are crimes in and 920 00:52:53,719 --> 00:52:57,200 Speaker 1: of themselves. Well, I agree, I mean all of this 921 00:52:57,280 --> 00:52:58,880 Speaker 1: is a crime. We never seem to get to the 922 00:52:58,880 --> 00:53:05,880 Speaker 1: bottom of anything Hillery got. I mean Trump as the government, Now, 923 00:53:06,400 --> 00:53:08,840 Speaker 1: can you call these people in and say, you know, 924 00:53:08,920 --> 00:53:12,080 Speaker 1: what did what did the National security adviser of the 925 00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:15,439 Speaker 1: lady for working for the Barack Obama? What did she get? 926 00:53:15,480 --> 00:53:17,919 Speaker 1: What did she do? She's not going to testify now, 927 00:53:18,160 --> 00:53:21,600 Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's Susan Rice selection of duty here, Well, 928 00:53:21,640 --> 00:53:24,160 Speaker 1: you're talking about Susan Rice. Look to me, there is 929 00:53:24,239 --> 00:53:29,600 Speaker 1: no rational explanation to see exponentially this dramatic and increase 930 00:53:29,760 --> 00:53:32,840 Speaker 1: of surveillance and I'm masking in an election year. The 931 00:53:32,960 --> 00:53:36,800 Speaker 1: only intelligent conclusion we can make is that the n 932 00:53:36,920 --> 00:53:41,239 Speaker 1: s A, our surveillance community, was being used as a 933 00:53:41,320 --> 00:53:45,480 Speaker 1: mechanism to spy on political opposition. If that is true, 934 00:53:45,520 --> 00:53:47,640 Speaker 1: and I am right, and I suspect you agree with me, 935 00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:49,960 Speaker 1: what how do we get to the bottom of it? 936 00:53:50,120 --> 00:53:53,239 Speaker 1: What is the magnitude of scandal we're talking about? Well, look, 937 00:53:53,280 --> 00:53:55,520 Speaker 1: here's what you do. You've got to get the the 938 00:53:55,560 --> 00:53:59,080 Speaker 1: head of the the the top, and you gotta get 939 00:53:59,120 --> 00:54:01,480 Speaker 1: Clapper in there in the room. Then you get the 940 00:54:01,560 --> 00:54:03,840 Speaker 1: c I A gut previous guy Brennan, and then you 941 00:54:03,880 --> 00:54:06,600 Speaker 1: get them in there, get them all the roads, Susan Rice, 942 00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:09,280 Speaker 1: closed session, get them all in there and closed sessions. 943 00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:12,320 Speaker 1: So okay, we want the names, and we want everything 944 00:54:12,440 --> 00:54:14,759 Speaker 1: you did, and do it in close sessions in the 945 00:54:14,880 --> 00:54:18,240 Speaker 1: Senate and the House. Get that material from these folks 946 00:54:18,239 --> 00:54:20,960 Speaker 1: and say, okay, what's your explanation for it? And then 947 00:54:21,000 --> 00:54:23,560 Speaker 1: you're gonna infticate. Then you're gonna have a report on 948 00:54:23,640 --> 00:54:26,080 Speaker 1: that and say what they did and whether this was 949 00:54:26,200 --> 00:54:29,719 Speaker 1: elicit illegal. Well, Pat, we already know what happened to 950 00:54:29,760 --> 00:54:32,600 Speaker 1: General Flynn was illegal. We already you know. But here's 951 00:54:32,680 --> 00:54:35,160 Speaker 1: here's my problem, and help me out, because look, you're 952 00:54:35,160 --> 00:54:37,600 Speaker 1: talking about the battles that made and broke a president 953 00:54:37,960 --> 00:54:40,839 Speaker 1: and divided America forever. Okay, we're now in many ways, 954 00:54:40,880 --> 00:54:43,440 Speaker 1: I would argue, based on your book, we're reliving history. 955 00:54:43,560 --> 00:54:45,920 Speaker 1: How does Hillary get away with the private server and 956 00:54:46,040 --> 00:54:48,799 Speaker 1: a mom and pop shop in a bathroom closet with 957 00:54:49,000 --> 00:54:53,480 Speaker 1: not only top serious secret emails, but special access intelligence, 958 00:54:53,520 --> 00:54:55,920 Speaker 1: which is the highest level of intelligence. How is it 959 00:54:55,960 --> 00:54:59,799 Speaker 1: the Clinton Foundation gives away twenty of America's uranium and 960 00:54:59,840 --> 00:55:02,640 Speaker 1: the Clinton Foundation, with all the people involved, gets millions 961 00:55:02,640 --> 00:55:07,160 Speaker 1: and millions of dollars visa, the Clinton Foundation, doubling of 962 00:55:07,400 --> 00:55:10,400 Speaker 1: speech fees of Bill Clinton in Moscow, And that the 963 00:55:10,440 --> 00:55:14,160 Speaker 1: media focuses only in on a conspiracy of collusion, that 964 00:55:14,280 --> 00:55:17,160 Speaker 1: we don't have a shred of evidence after investigations have 965 00:55:17,239 --> 00:55:19,279 Speaker 1: gone on for nearly a year. That's how we do it. 966 00:55:19,360 --> 00:55:23,520 Speaker 1: Come first, as all the goods sufficient to recommend an indictment, 967 00:55:23,520 --> 00:55:26,720 Speaker 1: he can indict, He sends to the Justice Department, whose 968 00:55:26,800 --> 00:55:29,279 Speaker 1: chief Miss Flint says, I'm going to follow what Mr 969 00:55:29,320 --> 00:55:33,240 Speaker 1: Comey says. He sends to the Justice Department really hard evidence, 970 00:55:33,280 --> 00:55:35,960 Speaker 1: which was sufficient a number of people said to indict 971 00:55:36,040 --> 00:55:38,200 Speaker 1: Comy did that, I think because he didn't want to 972 00:55:38,200 --> 00:55:42,000 Speaker 1: decide the election. So that happens, and and and and 973 00:55:42,200 --> 00:55:45,200 Speaker 1: so there's no indictment of Hillary. And then frankly, after 974 00:55:45,239 --> 00:55:49,080 Speaker 1: the election is over, the Trump administration that was ordered 975 00:55:49,080 --> 00:55:51,880 Speaker 1: to the Trump Justice Department was told not to pursue 976 00:55:51,920 --> 00:55:55,600 Speaker 1: the Hillary matter. Well, that's the point. We never followed through. Pat. 977 00:55:55,640 --> 00:55:57,839 Speaker 1: The only people that we get followed through on our 978 00:55:58,280 --> 00:56:01,719 Speaker 1: conservatives and Republicans public. You know, one of the reasons 979 00:56:01,800 --> 00:56:05,040 Speaker 1: I wanted to get rid of the supermajority or or 980 00:56:05,200 --> 00:56:08,680 Speaker 1: culture or what we call the nuclear option, is because 981 00:56:08,760 --> 00:56:11,439 Speaker 1: Republicans they played by one set of rules. Ruth Bader 982 00:56:11,480 --> 00:56:14,239 Speaker 1: Ginsburg will get an upper down vote, Elena Kagan will 983 00:56:14,239 --> 00:56:16,600 Speaker 1: get an up and down vote, Sonya Soda mayor any 984 00:56:16,680 --> 00:56:18,560 Speaker 1: liberal on the court as an upper down vote. Then 985 00:56:18,680 --> 00:56:23,920 Speaker 1: the same reciprocity, the same courtesy is not extended to Republicans. 986 00:56:23,920 --> 00:56:26,840 Speaker 1: So why so why would I was in the battles 987 00:56:26,880 --> 00:56:30,560 Speaker 1: of Haynesworth and Carswell were torn to pieces exactly there 988 00:56:30,560 --> 00:56:33,200 Speaker 1: in those says. But here's something else, national and let's 989 00:56:33,200 --> 00:56:35,040 Speaker 1: take the one item that you and I agree on. 990 00:56:35,560 --> 00:56:38,280 Speaker 1: It is a crime to do. Look, I don't agree 991 00:56:38,280 --> 00:56:41,240 Speaker 1: with what General Flynn did, but it is a crime 992 00:56:41,600 --> 00:56:45,240 Speaker 1: to leave this fact out from the Justice Department about 993 00:56:45,280 --> 00:56:48,520 Speaker 1: the talks with the Vice president, et cetera, to the 994 00:56:48,520 --> 00:56:52,040 Speaker 1: Washington Post. Get called me in there and ask him publicly, Now, 995 00:56:52,080 --> 00:56:55,440 Speaker 1: are you investigating the leak which is apparently out of 996 00:56:55,480 --> 00:56:58,880 Speaker 1: the FBI, but in any of that is criminal misconduct. 997 00:56:59,000 --> 00:57:02,120 Speaker 1: Have you invested it and run down the FBI agent 998 00:57:02,320 --> 00:57:04,960 Speaker 1: or agents or whoever it was that made this leak 999 00:57:05,080 --> 00:57:07,520 Speaker 1: which appears to be out of your department and fired them, 1000 00:57:07,600 --> 00:57:09,680 Speaker 1: or what have you done? Give us the name, because 1001 00:57:09,719 --> 00:57:12,840 Speaker 1: we think that's an indictable crime. And if you can't 1002 00:57:12,840 --> 00:57:14,600 Speaker 1: give us the name, we're going to get a new 1003 00:57:14,680 --> 00:57:18,360 Speaker 1: FBI director who will. All Right, Pap Buchanon is with us. 1004 00:57:18,680 --> 00:57:20,480 Speaker 1: He's got a brand new book out. And if you 1005 00:57:20,520 --> 00:57:23,360 Speaker 1: think history repeats itself, well it does, and it gives 1006 00:57:23,360 --> 00:57:26,120 Speaker 1: you a very very broad perspective that a lot of 1007 00:57:26,160 --> 00:57:28,160 Speaker 1: what we've been through in the past is happening again 1008 00:57:28,240 --> 00:57:30,840 Speaker 1: on steroids. And his new book is called Nixon's White 1009 00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:33,400 Speaker 1: House Wars, the battles that made and broke a president 1010 00:57:33,560 --> 00:57:37,520 Speaker 1: and divided America forever. All Right, as we continue. Patrick J. 1011 00:57:37,640 --> 00:57:40,480 Speaker 1: Buchanan is with us as a brand new book, Nixon's 1012 00:57:40,600 --> 00:57:43,160 Speaker 1: White House Wars, The Battles that made and broke a 1013 00:57:43,240 --> 00:57:47,080 Speaker 1: President Divided America forever uh destined to be another Pat 1014 00:57:47,120 --> 00:57:51,360 Speaker 1: Buchanan bestseller. Um, but what you're writing about in this book, 1015 00:57:51,400 --> 00:57:53,280 Speaker 1: and I really had a hard time putting it down 1016 00:57:53,320 --> 00:57:55,240 Speaker 1: last night until I literally passed out with it on 1017 00:57:55,280 --> 00:57:59,840 Speaker 1: my chest, is is this book is so relevant and 1018 00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:03,560 Speaker 1: you can really see that history does repeat itself, and 1019 00:58:03,600 --> 00:58:06,800 Speaker 1: it seems to be repeating itself even at a higher level. Now, 1020 00:58:07,520 --> 00:58:09,640 Speaker 1: you know, how would you tie the two together. Well, 1021 00:58:09,680 --> 00:58:13,320 Speaker 1: here's the thing, Sean. What happened. The American establishment, which 1022 00:58:13,360 --> 00:58:16,280 Speaker 1: basically ruled the country from the New Deal up into 1023 00:58:16,280 --> 00:58:21,280 Speaker 1: the nineteen sixties into JFK, broke apart and was broken 1024 00:58:21,360 --> 00:58:25,240 Speaker 1: on the wheel of Vietnam. However, and so Nixon broke 1025 00:58:25,320 --> 00:58:29,800 Speaker 1: through and one with six and then one again with 1026 00:58:29,840 --> 00:58:34,000 Speaker 1: seventy two, I mean with seventy two, with forty nine states. However, 1027 00:58:34,120 --> 00:58:38,840 Speaker 1: the establishment is ensconced deeply into the government in d C. 1028 00:58:39,240 --> 00:58:41,120 Speaker 1: I mean, Trump got four percent of the vote in 1029 00:58:41,200 --> 00:58:43,360 Speaker 1: d C, which tells you how much support he's got 1030 00:58:43,360 --> 00:58:49,680 Speaker 1: into bureaucracy, the media, the complete establishment, intellectual, academic establishment. 1031 00:58:50,200 --> 00:58:53,320 Speaker 1: And what they do is they're waiting there and you 1032 00:58:53,440 --> 00:58:57,440 Speaker 1: cannot make any football to slip and fall there, and 1033 00:58:57,480 --> 00:59:00,200 Speaker 1: they will run the sword right through you. And they 1034 00:59:00,240 --> 00:59:04,280 Speaker 1: are as ready to break and bring down President Trump 1035 00:59:04,320 --> 00:59:07,240 Speaker 1: as they were to break and bring down Nixon. Now, 1036 00:59:07,240 --> 00:59:10,320 Speaker 1: I'm not defending the blunders and mistakes Nixon made after 1037 00:59:10,320 --> 00:59:13,160 Speaker 1: that stupid break in, and they were used to break 1038 00:59:13,240 --> 00:59:15,760 Speaker 1: him bring him down, But they will not bring down 1039 00:59:15,800 --> 00:59:18,640 Speaker 1: their allies and friends. They wouldn't do this to Jack Kennedy, 1040 00:59:18,640 --> 00:59:21,360 Speaker 1: and they wouldn't do this to Barack Obama. But I'll 1041 00:59:21,360 --> 00:59:24,320 Speaker 1: tell you if the president better be prepared and realized 1042 00:59:24,840 --> 00:59:27,120 Speaker 1: that you know, if if they make a mistake, it's 1043 00:59:27,120 --> 00:59:29,440 Speaker 1: going to be big, it's going to be conscious. Look, 1044 00:59:29,800 --> 00:59:33,040 Speaker 1: General Flynn has been going for three months. For heaven's sakes, 1045 00:59:33,200 --> 00:59:34,920 Speaker 1: I didn't I don't know about you. I didn't learn 1046 00:59:34,960 --> 00:59:39,040 Speaker 1: anything new yesterday from those that report by that those 1047 00:59:39,120 --> 00:59:41,480 Speaker 1: those two and there were some of the good questions 1048 00:59:41,600 --> 00:59:45,040 Speaker 1: you know who leaked this that went unanswered, and we 1049 00:59:45,200 --> 00:59:47,720 Speaker 1: learned nothing about those, And we weren't learned the same 1050 00:59:47,760 --> 00:59:50,880 Speaker 1: thing about to talk with the Vice president, and when 1051 00:59:50,920 --> 00:59:53,160 Speaker 1: he learned it, and how many hours and days it 1052 00:59:53,320 --> 00:59:56,520 Speaker 1: was before he was removed. He's been gone for three months. 1053 00:59:56,960 --> 01:00:00,840 Speaker 1: Today we got an important issue, hugely important in Afghanistan. 1054 01:00:01,160 --> 01:00:02,720 Speaker 1: Are we going to go back in there with how 1055 01:00:02,760 --> 01:00:05,000 Speaker 1: many troops can we win? It? Is? It lost the 1056 01:00:05,080 --> 01:00:08,920 Speaker 1: gigantic issue. But the media they will stay focused on. 1057 01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:13,080 Speaker 1: They will keep zeroed in laser like on anything that 1058 01:00:13,400 --> 01:00:15,880 Speaker 1: is damaging and they'll keep it, keep it up and up. 1059 01:00:15,920 --> 01:00:18,400 Speaker 1: And look, it's been almost a year. Has there been 1060 01:00:18,520 --> 01:00:21,959 Speaker 1: inclusion everything that comes on TV? No, we haven't found 1061 01:00:21,960 --> 01:00:25,000 Speaker 1: any colusion. If there's collusion, for heaven's sake, they should 1062 01:00:25,000 --> 01:00:27,400 Speaker 1: have found it in the first week. Yeah, well, they 1063 01:00:27,440 --> 01:00:29,040 Speaker 1: should have found it in the first week. Would have, 1064 01:00:29,040 --> 01:00:31,040 Speaker 1: could have, should have. The fact that they delay all 1065 01:00:31,080 --> 01:00:34,000 Speaker 1: of this the way they do is unbelievable and frankly 1066 01:00:34,080 --> 01:00:37,800 Speaker 1: unforgivable to me. Um, I've got to believe that based 1067 01:00:37,840 --> 01:00:40,680 Speaker 1: on some of the recent news that you're pretty happy 1068 01:00:40,680 --> 01:00:44,000 Speaker 1: on a on a farm policy front. Um. I'm looking 1069 01:00:44,040 --> 01:00:46,520 Speaker 1: at the news cycle earlier today, and you know, we 1070 01:00:46,600 --> 01:00:49,760 Speaker 1: see that the president, i think, has taken a very 1071 01:00:49,920 --> 01:00:52,760 Speaker 1: Pat Buchanan like position, and that is he's arming the 1072 01:00:52,800 --> 01:00:55,000 Speaker 1: Kurts where you have the courage are great. But let 1073 01:00:55,000 --> 01:00:58,720 Speaker 1: me say this, Sean with Nixon faced a similar situation here. 1074 01:00:58,800 --> 01:01:03,720 Speaker 1: We came in with I've hud guys still in Vietnam, 1075 01:01:03,760 --> 01:01:07,600 Speaker 1: and Nixon realized that the country wanted him to pull out. 1076 01:01:07,680 --> 01:01:09,560 Speaker 1: It didn't want to lose the war, and it's a 1077 01:01:09,640 --> 01:01:13,040 Speaker 1: hellish problem to do that and succeed, and he did 1078 01:01:13,040 --> 01:01:16,200 Speaker 1: by seventy two. And it was until seventy that the North, 1079 01:01:16,240 --> 01:01:19,120 Speaker 1: after he had been broken and driven from office to north, 1080 01:01:19,760 --> 01:01:22,680 Speaker 1: came down from the North. But I will say this, 1081 01:01:23,560 --> 01:01:25,640 Speaker 1: We've got guys all over the Middle East. We got 1082 01:01:25,720 --> 01:01:28,360 Speaker 1: him in the Iraq, we got him in Afghanistan. We're 1083 01:01:28,560 --> 01:01:31,560 Speaker 1: aiding the Saudis in Yemen, we got folks in Somalia. 1084 01:01:32,000 --> 01:01:36,000 Speaker 1: We are in all over these politics Syria. Even if 1085 01:01:36,120 --> 01:01:39,040 Speaker 1: I mean, and I think Trump doesn't think we should 1086 01:01:39,040 --> 01:01:41,000 Speaker 1: have gone in, and neither do I. But once you 1087 01:01:41,040 --> 01:01:43,920 Speaker 1: are in there, you go. We gotta win. But you 1088 01:01:43,960 --> 01:01:46,320 Speaker 1: can't charm. We had a hundred thousand guys or something 1089 01:01:46,360 --> 01:01:48,880 Speaker 1: in Afghanistan and we didn't make it. Ten thousand aren't 1090 01:01:48,880 --> 01:01:51,400 Speaker 1: going to do it. No, I agree, But you know what, 1091 01:01:51,520 --> 01:01:54,520 Speaker 1: these countries also have to start fighting for themselves. And 1092 01:01:54,560 --> 01:01:57,000 Speaker 1: you know that's the Nixon doctrine he brought in Asia 1093 01:01:57,080 --> 01:02:00,240 Speaker 1: that will help him to the Yeah, yeah, to the 1094 01:02:00,280 --> 01:02:03,120 Speaker 1: degree we count is right. But listen, it's very complicated. 1095 01:02:03,160 --> 01:02:04,880 Speaker 1: We'll talk about that in the future. The book is awesome, 1096 01:02:04,920 --> 01:02:08,120 Speaker 1: by the way, our friend Pat Buchanan, Nixon's White House Wars, 1097 01:02:08,200 --> 01:02:10,600 Speaker 1: the battles that made and broke a president and divided 1098 01:02:10,600 --> 01:02:13,640 Speaker 1: America forever, and you'll see so many parallels to where 1099 01:02:13,640 --> 01:02:16,320 Speaker 1: we are today, and you'll get a great background and 1100 01:02:16,600 --> 01:02:20,040 Speaker 1: knowledge of history. Thanks Pat. Regardless of your political point 1101 01:02:20,080 --> 01:02:22,160 Speaker 1: of view here tonight are watching at home, I think 1102 01:02:22,240 --> 01:02:25,160 Speaker 1: we can all agree. In the last eight years, the 1103 01:02:25,160 --> 01:02:28,640 Speaker 1: White House has given us a leader who's passionate, intelligent, 1104 01:02:28,960 --> 01:02:34,280 Speaker 1: and dignified. You talk like a sign language guerilla who 1105 01:02:34,280 --> 01:02:36,200 Speaker 1: got hit in the head. In fact, the only thing 1106 01:02:36,240 --> 01:02:39,320 Speaker 1: your mouth is good for is being Vladimir Putin's coolster. 1107 01:02:39,720 --> 01:02:44,320 Speaker 1: President Obama held his last press conference today. He talked 1108 01:02:44,360 --> 01:02:48,720 Speaker 1: about the complexities of peace in the Middle East, universal healthcare, 1109 01:02:49,120 --> 01:02:54,760 Speaker 1: job creation, pretty boring stuff and uh man, I'm gonna 1110 01:02:54,760 --> 01:02:57,120 Speaker 1: miss being bored. At the end of that monologue, I 1111 01:02:57,160 --> 01:02:59,960 Speaker 1: had a few choice insults for the President in return, 1112 01:03:01,160 --> 01:03:05,800 Speaker 1: I don't regret that. So for the last time, from me, 1113 01:03:06,520 --> 01:03:10,000 Speaker 1: the real Stephen Colbert, I just want to say thanks Obama. 1114 01:03:10,400 --> 01:03:14,080 Speaker 1: One reporter ran into ranks previous who told her the 1115 01:03:14,160 --> 01:03:16,960 Speaker 1: President stepped up and helped punt the ball into the 1116 01:03:17,080 --> 01:03:20,160 Speaker 1: end zone. I think are more accurate football metaphor might 1117 01:03:20,160 --> 01:03:24,120 Speaker 1: have been the GOP just kicks America. And you gotta say, 1118 01:03:24,440 --> 01:03:28,200 Speaker 1: after listening to this scandal and listening to the Benghazi scandal, 1119 01:03:28,480 --> 01:03:31,160 Speaker 1: what I came away with is what I thought years 1120 01:03:31,160 --> 01:03:34,800 Speaker 1: ago after Nixon scandals, which is the culture always comes 1121 01:03:34,800 --> 01:03:37,480 Speaker 1: from the top. If the top guy is corrupt and 1122 01:03:37,560 --> 01:03:41,480 Speaker 1: shady and sketchy, then everyone down gets corrupt and and 1123 01:03:41,600 --> 01:03:45,200 Speaker 1: and he's not he's clean, and basically his government is clean. 1124 01:03:45,400 --> 01:03:48,600 Speaker 1: And these scandals have proven that the government is basically clean. 1125 01:03:48,720 --> 01:04:13,920 Speaker 1: They're noting with people in any way. I've been mostly 1126 01:04:13,960 --> 01:04:16,720 Speaker 1: holding my tongue about the president this past season because 1127 01:04:16,720 --> 01:04:18,560 Speaker 1: I didn't want to muddy the waters in the country 1128 01:04:18,560 --> 01:04:21,600 Speaker 1: where you only get two choices. But Mr President, there 1129 01:04:21,640 --> 01:04:26,160 Speaker 1: are two ways to look at your victory. One as 1130 01:04:26,240 --> 01:04:28,360 Speaker 1: we love you, the other is we like you three 1131 01:04:28,400 --> 01:04:31,920 Speaker 1: percent better than Mitt Romney. Oh a long is going 1132 01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:34,640 Speaker 1: to be our saving grace. You know, when he's about 1133 01:04:34,680 --> 01:04:38,680 Speaker 1: to nuke Finland or something, She's going to walk into 1134 01:04:38,720 --> 01:04:46,640 Speaker 1: the bedroom and you know, Daddy, Daddy, don't Daddy. I 1135 01:04:46,640 --> 01:04:50,520 Speaker 1: think the second term for Obama is more important even 1136 01:04:50,520 --> 01:04:52,600 Speaker 1: than the first. Obviously it was important to get the 1137 01:04:52,640 --> 01:04:56,360 Speaker 1: first black president elected, but if the first black president 1138 01:04:56,480 --> 01:05:01,000 Speaker 1: only has one term, America reads that as a this 1139 01:05:01,080 --> 01:05:03,880 Speaker 1: is what the right wing hopes and praise for more 1140 01:05:03,920 --> 01:05:06,560 Speaker 1: than anything else that America looks at this one term 1141 01:05:06,560 --> 01:05:10,440 Speaker 1: president goes, well, you know what, we tried a black guy, 1142 01:05:10,840 --> 01:05:13,959 Speaker 1: but it just didn't work. And I think Obama's worried 1143 01:05:14,040 --> 01:05:16,520 Speaker 1: that he That's why I think he is as conservative 1144 01:05:16,520 --> 01:05:19,280 Speaker 1: in the first time. He knows for the sake of 1145 01:05:19,480 --> 01:05:22,480 Speaker 1: black America, he needs the second term. All Right, News 1146 01:05:22,560 --> 01:05:25,040 Speaker 1: Round Up, Information Overload Hour on the Seawan Hannity Show. 1147 01:05:25,080 --> 01:05:28,040 Speaker 1: We have spent a lot of time talking about Bill 1148 01:05:28,120 --> 01:05:32,840 Speaker 1: Maher and Stephen Colbert and the vile, vicious attacks that 1149 01:05:32,920 --> 01:05:35,320 Speaker 1: exists now. The Center for Media Public Affairs at George 1150 01:05:35,320 --> 01:05:39,720 Speaker 1: Mason University actually counted an incredible one thousand sixty jokes 1151 01:05:39,760 --> 01:05:43,680 Speaker 1: directed against Trump during his first hundred days in office. 1152 01:05:43,720 --> 01:05:47,160 Speaker 1: That's more than ten times as many barbs aimed at 1153 01:05:47,880 --> 01:05:52,680 Speaker 1: all Democrats combined during the same period, and considerably more 1154 01:05:52,720 --> 01:05:56,280 Speaker 1: than Barack Obama and Bill Clinton received during their entire 1155 01:05:56,400 --> 01:06:00,240 Speaker 1: first year of their presidency. It just never ends. It's 1156 01:06:00,280 --> 01:06:03,160 Speaker 1: not just the number of attacks, the frequency of attacks, 1157 01:06:03,160 --> 01:06:08,080 Speaker 1: which is unprecedented, it's also the degree to which these 1158 01:06:08,280 --> 01:06:12,400 Speaker 1: the viciousness involved in the attacks. Now, I just can't 1159 01:06:12,440 --> 01:06:15,840 Speaker 1: imagine what you just heard, Bill Maher, and you know, incest. 1160 01:06:15,960 --> 01:06:18,520 Speaker 1: I can even say incest is a joke because it's 1161 01:06:18,560 --> 01:06:21,800 Speaker 1: not a joke. But imagine if this were ever said 1162 01:06:22,600 --> 01:06:25,920 Speaker 1: um during Barack Obama's presidency, what would be the reaction 1163 01:06:25,960 --> 01:06:27,640 Speaker 1: in the country. It would be it would be a 1164 01:06:27,760 --> 01:06:31,280 Speaker 1: fire able offense for anybody. Be it on you know, 1165 01:06:31,360 --> 01:06:35,680 Speaker 1: conservative talk radio, late night television. It would not be allowed. 1166 01:06:36,320 --> 01:06:38,840 Speaker 1: But everybody's taking it. Well, it's fine with these guys. 1167 01:06:39,200 --> 01:06:41,600 Speaker 1: I'm not calling for anybody's firing. I'm saying, vote with 1168 01:06:41,640 --> 01:06:45,000 Speaker 1: your vote, with your your clicker, your remote, turn the 1169 01:06:45,040 --> 01:06:47,880 Speaker 1: TV off, return the dial. But I am pointing out 1170 01:06:47,920 --> 01:06:52,480 Speaker 1: that there is a level of hate, vitriol, viciousness. It 1171 01:06:52,640 --> 01:06:56,120 Speaker 1: is unprecedented here. And you don't hear the left go 1172 01:06:56,240 --> 01:07:01,400 Speaker 1: out defending conservatives. Conservatives are silenced on college campuses. Nobody 1173 01:07:01,440 --> 01:07:05,400 Speaker 1: says a thing the Fox News channel, talk radio monitored 1174 01:07:05,440 --> 01:07:08,360 Speaker 1: in the hopes of Boycott's every day. Not a word 1175 01:07:08,360 --> 01:07:11,000 Speaker 1: of defense from liberals in this country, any of them. 1176 01:07:11,480 --> 01:07:15,000 Speaker 1: And then this viciousness which would never be tolerated. It's 1177 01:07:15,160 --> 01:07:18,480 Speaker 1: loved by the left. They don't utter a single word 1178 01:07:18,480 --> 01:07:23,920 Speaker 1: of defense for Ivanka Trump, Milania Trump, for Baron Trump, 1179 01:07:24,320 --> 01:07:27,760 Speaker 1: for any even for the soon to be grandson of 1180 01:07:27,800 --> 01:07:31,560 Speaker 1: the president, for crying out loud. It's that vicious. Jeffrey Lord, 1181 01:07:31,640 --> 01:07:34,640 Speaker 1: former associate political director in the Reagan administration, author of 1182 01:07:34,640 --> 01:07:37,320 Speaker 1: the best selling book What America Needs The Case for Trump. 1183 01:07:37,400 --> 01:07:41,120 Speaker 1: Leslie Marshall, Coast of The Leslie Marshall Show and Fox 1184 01:07:41,160 --> 01:07:44,120 Speaker 1: News contributor, I mean, Leslie, you just have to admit 1185 01:07:44,160 --> 01:07:48,200 Speaker 1: there there is such a severe double standard here, and 1186 01:07:48,280 --> 01:07:51,040 Speaker 1: your friends on the left are virtually silent on any 1187 01:07:51,080 --> 01:07:53,360 Speaker 1: of these issues that they claim to have a mantle 1188 01:07:53,480 --> 01:07:57,920 Speaker 1: of of morality on and and a standard second to 1189 01:07:58,000 --> 01:08:02,520 Speaker 1: none on well Sean if you google um I wrote 1190 01:08:02,520 --> 01:08:05,600 Speaker 1: for The Huffington's Post a couple of years ago, actually 1191 01:08:05,760 --> 01:08:09,919 Speaker 1: a piece talking about how spouses and children for any 1192 01:08:09,960 --> 01:08:11,920 Speaker 1: candidate left or right should be off limits. And a 1193 01:08:11,920 --> 01:08:15,240 Speaker 1: lot of conservative sites liked it, tagged it, and you know, 1194 01:08:15,560 --> 01:08:17,519 Speaker 1: but my my terminology. I don't know if it went 1195 01:08:17,600 --> 01:08:21,400 Speaker 1: viral or whatever, but but applauded it and quite frankly 1196 01:08:21,520 --> 01:08:24,840 Speaker 1: attacking the president. You have the first Amendment right going blue, 1197 01:08:24,960 --> 01:08:27,880 Speaker 1: which I believe see Stephen Colbert, did I agree with you? Sean? 1198 01:08:28,200 --> 01:08:29,960 Speaker 1: You have a choice. Is a consumer what you watch 1199 01:08:30,000 --> 01:08:33,479 Speaker 1: and you don't watch. But attacks of any kind, and 1200 01:08:33,600 --> 01:08:35,280 Speaker 1: I don't care if the person is a Democrat and 1201 01:08:35,360 --> 01:08:39,880 Speaker 1: Republican on their children, regardless of their children's age. And 1202 01:08:39,920 --> 01:08:43,400 Speaker 1: we have heard attacked. We heard terrible scathing attacks on 1203 01:08:43,479 --> 01:08:47,000 Speaker 1: Amy Carter, on Chelsea Clinton. We're hearing it on Ivanka. 1204 01:08:47,439 --> 01:08:49,799 Speaker 1: I not only as a parent, but as a decent 1205 01:08:49,880 --> 01:08:53,120 Speaker 1: human being, I find okay, all right, Leslie, I'm gonna 1206 01:08:53,160 --> 01:08:55,599 Speaker 1: give you a pass. I'm gonna say, Leslie is different. 1207 01:08:55,920 --> 01:08:59,559 Speaker 1: I am talking about the loudest, biggest voices on the 1208 01:08:59,680 --> 01:09:04,759 Speaker 1: left are virtually silent and Jeffrey Lord, this would never 1209 01:09:04,920 --> 01:09:08,599 Speaker 1: be done to Barack Obama, man. Is that the truth? 1210 01:09:08,680 --> 01:09:15,160 Speaker 1: I mean they becoming if you mean the uproar, if 1211 01:09:15,200 --> 01:09:18,639 Speaker 1: you Sean Hannity sat there on on on the set 1212 01:09:18,680 --> 01:09:22,840 Speaker 1: of your television show and said anything remotely like this 1213 01:09:23,160 --> 01:09:28,040 Speaker 1: about Barack Obama's kids. I just I mean you you 1214 01:09:28,040 --> 01:09:30,080 Speaker 1: would not only have lost your TV show, you would 1215 01:09:30,080 --> 01:09:32,600 Speaker 1: have lost this show. I mean they'd have been after you. 1216 01:09:32,840 --> 01:09:35,439 Speaker 1: I mean, they're in lies, the double standards. The one 1217 01:09:35,600 --> 01:09:38,160 Speaker 1: caveat I have and it's exactly the same as yours. 1218 01:09:38,200 --> 01:09:42,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I am a First Amendment fundamentalist, and and 1219 01:09:42,120 --> 01:09:46,000 Speaker 1: in being that, it is not escaped. My notice that 1220 01:09:46,080 --> 01:09:50,000 Speaker 1: our friends on the left are all too frequently not 1221 01:09:50,840 --> 01:09:53,679 Speaker 1: that they reserve, unto themselves, the right to say all 1222 01:09:53,760 --> 01:09:55,680 Speaker 1: these kind of things. But they want to get you 1223 01:09:55,760 --> 01:09:58,040 Speaker 1: off the earth, or they want to close down Fox, 1224 01:09:58,120 --> 01:10:00,479 Speaker 1: or they want this that or the other person's silence. 1225 01:10:01,000 --> 01:10:04,720 Speaker 1: This comes from their basic totlitary in nature. I mean, 1226 01:10:04,760 --> 01:10:07,280 Speaker 1: this is what the left is all about, bottom line. 1227 01:10:07,320 --> 01:10:11,839 Speaker 1: Whether it's the French Revolution nineteen seventeen or whether it's today, 1228 01:10:12,040 --> 01:10:14,479 Speaker 1: they want to shut down the opposition. They want to 1229 01:10:14,479 --> 01:10:18,920 Speaker 1: shut down Donald Trump. I mean, it is just appalling, 1230 01:10:18,960 --> 01:10:21,400 Speaker 1: But we really do need to realize what we're dealing 1231 01:10:21,439 --> 01:10:26,240 Speaker 1: with here. Well, I I just don't think I've never 1232 01:10:26,520 --> 01:10:29,720 Speaker 1: I've never witnessed anything like this, and Leslie is on 1233 01:10:29,760 --> 01:10:32,960 Speaker 1: a very remote basis. Yeah, okay, we can go back. 1234 01:10:33,040 --> 01:10:35,920 Speaker 1: There was a crack made about Amy Carter, maybe a 1235 01:10:36,000 --> 01:10:40,720 Speaker 1: crack made about Chelsea Clinton, maybe in I can't remember 1236 01:10:40,800 --> 01:10:47,160 Speaker 1: one against the Obama daughters. Okay, now that's fine, all right, 1237 01:10:47,200 --> 01:10:52,080 Speaker 1: But but no mainstream conservative made cracks against any of 1238 01:10:52,080 --> 01:10:54,840 Speaker 1: these people, and especially in the case I've always said, 1239 01:10:54,840 --> 01:10:56,519 Speaker 1: I actually think the omam has did a great job 1240 01:10:56,560 --> 01:10:59,639 Speaker 1: with their daughters. Yeah, I I I think it's very 1241 01:10:59,640 --> 01:11:02,400 Speaker 1: difficult gold to be raised in the White House, and 1242 01:11:02,520 --> 01:11:05,280 Speaker 1: I think kids hands off, the kids leave him alone. Now, 1243 01:11:05,320 --> 01:11:07,280 Speaker 1: Michelle Obama when she says for the first time in 1244 01:11:07,280 --> 01:11:10,960 Speaker 1: my adult life, I'm proud of my country, okay, fair game, 1245 01:11:11,080 --> 01:11:14,320 Speaker 1: Because she now has inserted herself, You're not proud of 1246 01:11:14,360 --> 01:11:18,360 Speaker 1: your country beating back fascism, Nazism, imperial Japan, or the 1247 01:11:18,400 --> 01:11:21,479 Speaker 1: blood and sweat and treasure this country is sacrificed for 1248 01:11:21,520 --> 01:11:24,800 Speaker 1: the cause of freedom. Uh And the only time, yeah, 1249 01:11:25,280 --> 01:11:28,920 Speaker 1: or or any of the country's many accomplishments, you're only 1250 01:11:29,080 --> 01:11:32,599 Speaker 1: You're only proud of your country when your husband's getting elected. 1251 01:11:32,800 --> 01:11:38,160 Speaker 1: That's pretty bad and deserve criticism. Leslie. I think if 1252 01:11:38,160 --> 01:11:41,280 Speaker 1: a person says something politically like Hillary Clinton had put 1253 01:11:41,320 --> 01:11:43,960 Speaker 1: herself out there politically more so than many first ladies 1254 01:11:44,040 --> 01:11:46,879 Speaker 1: before her. That's one thing. But we're talking about children, 1255 01:11:46,920 --> 01:11:50,599 Speaker 1: which Ivanka is a child of a president. Uh. There 1256 01:11:50,600 --> 01:11:56,479 Speaker 1: were remarks about putting uh Barack Obama's daughter Maliah fifteen 1257 01:11:56,560 --> 01:11:59,120 Speaker 1: at the time. Uh, you know, on birth control. There 1258 01:11:59,120 --> 01:12:02,640 Speaker 1: have been her Wrenn Dislee, racist marks and even imagery 1259 01:12:03,360 --> 01:12:07,320 Speaker 1: of the Obama specifically Michelle Obama and even the kids. 1260 01:12:07,520 --> 01:12:10,599 Speaker 1: And it is all wrong. Whether it's okay, So let's 1261 01:12:10,600 --> 01:12:15,120 Speaker 1: take the Obama's give me examples. Give me examples of 1262 01:12:15,439 --> 01:12:21,519 Speaker 1: Republicans attacking Michelle prominent names, well republicans, Okay, give me 1263 01:12:21,600 --> 01:12:24,360 Speaker 1: two seconds. All right, I'll tell you what. I'll give 1264 01:12:24,360 --> 01:12:26,519 Speaker 1: you time to think. I'll take a break right as 1265 01:12:26,520 --> 01:12:29,439 Speaker 1: we continue with Jeffrey Lord and Leslie Marshall. We gave 1266 01:12:29,520 --> 01:12:33,640 Speaker 1: Leslie some time to think and ponder examples of prominent conservatives. 1267 01:12:33,640 --> 01:12:38,839 Speaker 1: She's been googling now for the last four minutes. And uh, 1268 01:12:38,920 --> 01:12:41,240 Speaker 1: and and what have you come up with? Prominent conservatives 1269 01:12:41,240 --> 01:12:44,000 Speaker 1: that have attacked Michelle Obama? What you said before the break, 1270 01:12:44,000 --> 01:12:45,559 Speaker 1: Because we have a tape of it, we can run 1271 01:12:45,560 --> 01:12:48,000 Speaker 1: it back to the crew there. You said republicans. You 1272 01:12:48,080 --> 01:12:51,920 Speaker 1: didn't say prominent conservatives. Okay, who were the prominent republicans? 1273 01:12:52,000 --> 01:12:55,160 Speaker 1: The guy that said liar, you didn't say prominence? Yes, 1274 01:12:55,240 --> 01:12:57,400 Speaker 1: I did say, right, who were the All right, give 1275 01:12:57,400 --> 01:12:59,200 Speaker 1: me the unknown names you're about to give me because 1276 01:12:59,200 --> 01:13:02,120 Speaker 1: you don't have anybody. Well some of these names, actually 1277 01:13:02,200 --> 01:13:04,720 Speaker 1: you don't have any some of these names are not 1278 01:13:05,000 --> 01:13:09,400 Speaker 1: unknown quite frankly. Her weight was a big consideration for 1279 01:13:09,479 --> 01:13:13,759 Speaker 1: our Palin talked about her weight and her Alan Jones said, quote, 1280 01:13:13,800 --> 01:13:15,600 Speaker 1: she is actually a man. Okay, let me let me, 1281 01:13:15,720 --> 01:13:17,720 Speaker 1: let me just stop you for a second. There is 1282 01:13:17,840 --> 01:13:21,439 Speaker 1: context and textured everything, and this is, uh, this is 1283 01:13:21,479 --> 01:13:23,960 Speaker 1: the first lady telling us that we have to eat 1284 01:13:24,120 --> 01:13:28,320 Speaker 1: leaves and spinach for lunch every single day, Jeffrey, and 1285 01:13:28,560 --> 01:13:32,080 Speaker 1: I'm guessing that they're saying, well, that doesn't make you healthy. 1286 01:13:32,160 --> 01:13:34,559 Speaker 1: So there's a context. I'm assuming here. Am I right 1287 01:13:34,640 --> 01:13:36,879 Speaker 1: or wrong? You know? No, you're right. And the problem 1288 01:13:36,920 --> 01:13:39,280 Speaker 1: here is that when a when a first lady goes 1289 01:13:39,560 --> 01:13:44,640 Speaker 1: there's a difference here between let's say Jackie Kennedy or 1290 01:13:44,720 --> 01:13:47,840 Speaker 1: or Nancy Reagan. Uh, in the sense that one was 1291 01:13:47,840 --> 01:13:50,479 Speaker 1: talking about refurbishing the White House, and the other was 1292 01:13:50,520 --> 01:13:54,160 Speaker 1: talking about drugs and and you know, just say no 1293 01:13:54,240 --> 01:13:56,759 Speaker 1: to drugs. There's a difference between that and then going 1294 01:13:56,800 --> 01:14:00,120 Speaker 1: out and taking a real serious position on a political 1295 01:14:00,240 --> 01:14:02,920 Speaker 1: issue and thinking there'd be no blowback the moment you 1296 01:14:03,000 --> 01:14:05,840 Speaker 1: do that. If you're a first lady or for that matter, 1297 01:14:05,840 --> 01:14:08,480 Speaker 1: of first child, then you are going to get the blowback. 1298 01:14:08,720 --> 01:14:11,679 Speaker 1: And and it happens like clockwork, and no one should 1299 01:14:11,720 --> 01:14:16,280 Speaker 1: be surprised at it. When you Aladino guide minded your 1300 01:14:16,320 --> 01:14:22,000 Speaker 1: own business and place running and after that's a difference. Guys, 1301 01:14:22,040 --> 01:14:24,439 Speaker 1: can we can we can we get Leslie. You gotta 1302 01:14:24,479 --> 01:14:26,599 Speaker 1: let Jeff finished and then you go, Jeff finish your thought. 1303 01:14:26,680 --> 01:14:28,600 Speaker 1: So well, it's just when when you when you go 1304 01:14:28,680 --> 01:14:31,280 Speaker 1: out of your way like Ry Clinton did, for example, 1305 01:14:31,360 --> 01:14:34,120 Speaker 1: or Michelle Obama to insert yourself in a political issue, 1306 01:14:34,360 --> 01:14:36,839 Speaker 1: then you're going to get political blowback. There's no question. 1307 01:14:36,960 --> 01:14:39,280 Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's going to come with certainty, and 1308 01:14:39,360 --> 01:14:41,040 Speaker 1: it should. I mean, if you're going to use your 1309 01:14:41,080 --> 01:14:44,960 Speaker 1: platform to inject your political views, then great, then you 1310 01:14:45,000 --> 01:14:48,280 Speaker 1: know fine, but don't be surprised when people come back 1311 01:14:48,320 --> 01:14:51,519 Speaker 1: at you. Well, I don't consider sexist or racist for 1312 01:14:51,640 --> 01:14:54,639 Speaker 1: marks attacking one's politics. And I do agree with you, Jeffrey, 1313 01:14:54,680 --> 01:14:57,599 Speaker 1: regarding politics. And I said that earlier, like Hillary Clinton 1314 01:14:57,640 --> 01:14:59,920 Speaker 1: and others that have put themselves out there. Carl Polla 1315 01:15:00,040 --> 01:15:02,240 Speaker 1: Dino is another who said and I quote and sorry 1316 01:15:02,280 --> 01:15:04,800 Speaker 1: for interrupting. Nobody outside of New York knows who Carl 1317 01:15:04,840 --> 01:15:08,960 Speaker 1: Palladino is. Nobody, nobody outside of New York knows who 1318 01:15:09,040 --> 01:15:11,680 Speaker 1: Carl Palladino is. I live in Los Angeles. I know 1319 01:15:11,720 --> 01:15:14,080 Speaker 1: who he is. Okay, but you you spend hours and 1320 01:15:14,200 --> 01:15:16,679 Speaker 1: days and months in New York, so stop that. Nobody 1321 01:15:16,680 --> 01:15:18,960 Speaker 1: knows who this guy is. He's not a prominent He's 1322 01:15:18,960 --> 01:15:22,240 Speaker 1: not a prominent les. It's less. It's somebody's name that 1323 01:15:22,360 --> 01:15:25,880 Speaker 1: you feel everybody recognizes. It doesn't count when you say, okay, 1324 01:15:26,040 --> 01:15:28,599 Speaker 1: is that the same? Is that the same? Being a male? 1325 01:15:28,640 --> 01:15:30,720 Speaker 1: And let loose in the outback of Zimbabwe where she 1326 01:15:30,840 --> 01:15:32,519 Speaker 1: was comfortable in a cave with mat right, let me 1327 01:15:32,640 --> 01:15:35,880 Speaker 1: let me stand up for Michelle. That's despicable, and people 1328 01:15:35,920 --> 01:15:38,880 Speaker 1: like Jeff and I condemn it. It's disgusting, But so 1329 01:15:39,080 --> 01:15:41,920 Speaker 1: is Bill Maher a much bigger name, and so is 1330 01:15:42,320 --> 01:15:45,360 Speaker 1: uh Stephen Colbert a much bigger name, and so are 1331 01:15:45,439 --> 01:15:49,080 Speaker 1: the numbers of liberals in the House of Representatives. The 1332 01:15:49,120 --> 01:15:52,280 Speaker 1: things that they have said, starting with Nancy Pelosi on 1333 01:15:52,400 --> 01:15:59,320 Speaker 1: down against the President that have been over the line despicable. Well, okay, prominent, prominent, Okay, 1334 01:15:59,800 --> 01:16:03,200 Speaker 1: it's stop using Leslie. I know I'm teaching how to 1335 01:16:03,200 --> 01:16:04,840 Speaker 1: be a talk show host, but this is my show 1336 01:16:04,880 --> 01:16:07,679 Speaker 1: and I'm not answering questions, Okay, But my only point 1337 01:16:07,680 --> 01:16:11,080 Speaker 1: to you is we see you cannot look at what's 1338 01:16:11,120 --> 01:16:15,639 Speaker 1: being said about Ivanka, Milania, Baron Uh and Kelly Anne 1339 01:16:15,720 --> 01:16:18,479 Speaker 1: for crying out loud and not say this is something 1340 01:16:18,600 --> 01:16:21,760 Speaker 1: we've never seen before, and you should be speaking out 1341 01:16:21,800 --> 01:16:25,719 Speaker 1: as loudly as me and Jeffrey I mean, Sean. It helps. 1342 01:16:25,800 --> 01:16:28,040 Speaker 1: I mean when when when somebody on our side, I mean, 1343 01:16:28,040 --> 01:16:31,280 Speaker 1: as you just illustrated with Carl Talladino says something, I mean, 1344 01:16:32,200 --> 01:16:34,840 Speaker 1: I said something at the time. I mean, it's just 1345 01:16:34,920 --> 01:16:38,080 Speaker 1: it's disgraceful. So it's important when somebody on our side 1346 01:16:38,240 --> 01:16:40,479 Speaker 1: does something that's way out of it was. It was 1347 01:16:40,520 --> 01:16:43,280 Speaker 1: disgraceful and I don't know if you apologize for it. 1348 01:16:43,360 --> 01:16:45,320 Speaker 1: I hope he did, but it was disgraceful. There's no 1349 01:16:45,680 --> 01:16:47,840 Speaker 1: at this now a lot. They need to speak up. 1350 01:16:47,960 --> 01:16:49,960 Speaker 1: All right, We're gonna have to leave it there like 1351 01:16:49,960 --> 01:16:52,200 Speaker 1: like I said, Like I said, I wrote an article 1352 01:16:52,240 --> 01:16:55,000 Speaker 1: about it, and you were Shaun didn't know about it. Okay, 1353 01:16:55,040 --> 01:16:57,760 Speaker 1: I already gave you dispensation that I'll put you in 1354 01:16:57,760 --> 01:17:01,439 Speaker 1: a separate category. Most of your prominent liberal brethren sit 1355 01:17:01,560 --> 01:17:05,680 Speaker 1: by idly and silent and do and say nothing, and 1356 01:17:05,880 --> 01:17:08,559 Speaker 1: that therein lies the double standard. I gotta let you 1357 01:17:08,600 --> 01:17:10,760 Speaker 1: both go here. I'm glad we can get Google so 1358 01:17:10,880 --> 01:17:14,880 Speaker 1: much work during a half hour debate with Leslie. Shawn 1359 01:17:14,960 --> 01:17:17,080 Speaker 1: is our number. When we come back, we're gonna check 1360 01:17:17,080 --> 01:17:19,280 Speaker 1: out with the White House correspondent for the Gateway Pundit 1361 01:17:19,400 --> 01:17:21,400 Speaker 1: to give us, you know, the next and the long 1362 01:17:21,479 --> 01:17:25,040 Speaker 1: line of horrible flight stories. This is unbelievable. We'll get 1363 01:17:25,080 --> 01:17:44,720 Speaker 1: to that more. Holding them accountable, Sean gets the answers 1364 01:17:44,920 --> 01:17:50,120 Speaker 1: no one else does. America deserves and know the truth 1365 01:17:50,400 --> 01:18:03,400 Speaker 1: about Congress. What are their questions? And why the water 1366 01:18:03,520 --> 01:18:05,720 Speaker 1: right now in her life and the air isn't an 1367 01:18:05,760 --> 01:18:08,160 Speaker 1: option because the APU is gonna and that's the problem. 1368 01:18:08,160 --> 01:18:09,800 Speaker 1: And the lights were turned off because we thought it 1369 01:18:09,800 --> 01:18:16,720 Speaker 1: would get board us back on the plane because it's 1370 01:18:16,920 --> 01:18:20,240 Speaker 1: the main issue. That the main issue he didn't he 1371 01:18:20,400 --> 01:18:22,000 Speaker 1: knew when were at it, but then there was a 1372 01:18:22,000 --> 01:18:24,800 Speaker 1: problem with the powers which he would never afforded you 1373 01:18:24,840 --> 01:18:26,760 Speaker 1: guys again, if you thought you were even sitting here 1374 01:18:26,760 --> 01:18:32,680 Speaker 1: greeting in there, give me one second, let me let 1375 01:18:32,680 --> 01:18:35,800 Speaker 1: me call all right, twenty five now till the top 1376 01:18:35,840 --> 01:18:38,080 Speaker 1: of the hour some of the audio. You know, if 1377 01:18:38,080 --> 01:18:41,200 Speaker 1: things can't get worse for the airlines. I am stunned 1378 01:18:41,720 --> 01:18:44,760 Speaker 1: at what I've been seeing on the airlines. I mean, 1379 01:18:44,840 --> 01:18:49,479 Speaker 1: you see a woman with two babies twins carrying it 1380 01:18:49,560 --> 01:18:52,920 Speaker 1: and a guy ripping the stroll or nearly breaking open 1381 01:18:52,960 --> 01:18:55,240 Speaker 1: her head and her skull in the process. Is that 1382 01:18:55,520 --> 01:18:59,479 Speaker 1: instead of the obvious, ma'am, how can I help you? 1383 01:18:59,680 --> 01:19:01,120 Speaker 1: Can I help you? Would you like men to hold 1384 01:19:01,160 --> 01:19:03,080 Speaker 1: one of the kids, and would you like to get settled? 1385 01:19:03,120 --> 01:19:05,280 Speaker 1: And would you like me to take the stroller? And 1386 01:19:05,560 --> 01:19:08,200 Speaker 1: there's such there's two ways of doing anything. We've all 1387 01:19:08,200 --> 01:19:10,400 Speaker 1: experienced this in life, and that is you have the 1388 01:19:10,400 --> 01:19:13,679 Speaker 1: people that are really really helpful and really good and 1389 01:19:13,920 --> 01:19:16,560 Speaker 1: really supportive and do their job with a smile on 1390 01:19:16,600 --> 01:19:18,920 Speaker 1: their face. And then you have the other people that 1391 01:19:19,080 --> 01:19:21,640 Speaker 1: ripped the stroller out and they were impatient. And then 1392 01:19:21,680 --> 01:19:24,280 Speaker 1: you saw the video of the guy that stood up 1393 01:19:24,280 --> 01:19:26,679 Speaker 1: for this poor woman that had twins, and you got 1394 01:19:26,680 --> 01:19:29,840 Speaker 1: this this flight attendant guys trying to start a fight, 1395 01:19:29,880 --> 01:19:32,080 Speaker 1: sticking his finger in the face of the guy saying, hey, 1396 01:19:32,120 --> 01:19:34,360 Speaker 1: help the lady out. What are you doing? You know, 1397 01:19:34,520 --> 01:19:38,720 Speaker 1: become aware of your actions and your behavior. And then 1398 01:19:38,720 --> 01:19:41,840 Speaker 1: we have the incident of the guy being dragged down 1399 01:19:41,920 --> 01:19:46,640 Speaker 1: the aisle because United overbooked the flight, and we just 1400 01:19:46,680 --> 01:19:50,400 Speaker 1: heard there was audio and the audio was here we 1401 01:19:50,439 --> 01:19:54,560 Speaker 1: go United Airlines again, the company known for dragging this 1402 01:19:54,640 --> 01:19:59,800 Speaker 1: poor guy down the aisle, trapped a completely full ca 1403 01:20:00,040 --> 01:20:03,439 Speaker 1: been a passengers. What was this yesterday? When? When did 1404 01:20:03,479 --> 01:20:08,120 Speaker 1: this happen? This weekend? All right? For five hours? A 1405 01:20:08,200 --> 01:20:13,439 Speaker 1: complete full cabinet passengers on a flight, no lights, no 1406 01:20:13,600 --> 01:20:16,439 Speaker 1: air conditioning, apparently no water. How do you not have 1407 01:20:16,520 --> 01:20:20,880 Speaker 1: water on a on a flight? No usable restrooms? Five 1408 01:20:20,960 --> 01:20:23,920 Speaker 1: hours in Miami. Just telling me that I can't use 1409 01:20:23,920 --> 01:20:25,639 Speaker 1: the restroom means I'm gonna have to use the restroom. 1410 01:20:26,280 --> 01:20:30,639 Speaker 1: It's ridiculous. The original boarding time one oh six flight 1411 01:20:30,680 --> 01:20:35,479 Speaker 1: sixteen fourteen, departing Miami headed to New New Wick new 1412 01:20:35,560 --> 01:20:38,840 Speaker 1: Joyzy one. Once the passengers arrived at the airport, they 1413 01:20:38,840 --> 01:20:40,360 Speaker 1: were told that there was going to be a forty 1414 01:20:40,360 --> 01:20:43,360 Speaker 1: five minute maintenance to lay annoying, but that happens. When 1415 01:20:43,400 --> 01:20:46,559 Speaker 1: passengers boarded to fifteen, they shut the doors, told that 1416 01:20:46,600 --> 01:20:49,759 Speaker 1: there was a mechanical failure and only take fifteen minutes. 1417 01:20:50,240 --> 01:20:52,400 Speaker 1: An hour and a half later, passengers still trapped in 1418 01:20:52,439 --> 01:20:56,439 Speaker 1: the plane, slowly becoming like an oven sitting in the 1419 01:20:56,439 --> 01:21:02,240 Speaker 1: Miami sun, as was reported on gateway pundit, and no 1420 01:21:02,400 --> 01:21:05,519 Speaker 1: water offered. Elderly woman sitting towards the back of the 1421 01:21:05,560 --> 01:21:10,479 Speaker 1: plane passes out like a many heat stroke. Another two hours, 1422 01:21:10,520 --> 01:21:13,040 Speaker 1: the plane slowly makes its way back from the terminal. 1423 01:21:13,479 --> 01:21:19,120 Speaker 1: Passengers at this point sweating profusely, somewhat disoriented, debording to 1424 01:21:19,200 --> 01:21:23,400 Speaker 1: sit in the air conditioned airport. After roughly an hour 1425 01:21:23,439 --> 01:21:25,040 Speaker 1: and a half, they were told the planes ready to 1426 01:21:25,080 --> 01:21:28,519 Speaker 1: take off. Reluctantly and again, I'm I'm reading the piece 1427 01:21:28,560 --> 01:21:36,040 Speaker 1: by Lucian wind Rich. Lucian win Rich. Reluctantly, passengers reboarded 1428 01:21:36,080 --> 01:21:38,559 Speaker 1: the overheated plane. An hour later, they were right back 1429 01:21:38,560 --> 01:21:42,160 Speaker 1: where they started, trapped in a plane, no air conditioning, 1430 01:21:42,200 --> 01:21:46,160 Speaker 1: no lighting. Lucian was on that flight, White House corresponding 1431 01:21:46,200 --> 01:21:48,679 Speaker 1: Gateway Pundit. Oh, come on, you just tell me they're 1432 01:21:48,680 --> 01:21:51,840 Speaker 1: not that dumb. I mean it, it was. It was 1433 01:21:51,920 --> 01:21:56,680 Speaker 1: absolutely astonishing. Um. The first round one they had us 1434 01:21:56,680 --> 01:21:58,760 Speaker 1: all aboard. They said, you know, we haven't worked out 1435 01:21:58,800 --> 01:22:01,840 Speaker 1: these failures, but sit on the plane fifteen minutes and 1436 01:22:02,160 --> 01:22:06,040 Speaker 1: you know an airport lingo. That's typically just an I 1437 01:22:06,040 --> 01:22:07,880 Speaker 1: don't even want to say just an hour, but about 1438 01:22:07,880 --> 01:22:12,800 Speaker 1: an hour three hours later. Um, Absolutely no water, the 1439 01:22:12,840 --> 01:22:17,280 Speaker 1: restrooms are in operational, no lights, no air conditioning. Um. 1440 01:22:17,320 --> 01:22:19,920 Speaker 1: If you can imagine being in a metal tube under 1441 01:22:19,960 --> 01:22:23,559 Speaker 1: the sun for three hours, it was at least ninety 1442 01:22:23,600 --> 01:22:26,960 Speaker 1: degrees Uh. And I'm surprised people didn't start to start 1443 01:22:27,360 --> 01:22:29,840 Speaker 1: taking their clothes off. It was it was like no 1444 01:22:29,960 --> 01:22:33,240 Speaker 1: sauna's experienced in a while. And I gotta tell you, 1445 01:22:33,280 --> 01:22:36,479 Speaker 1: no offense solution. The selfie you took made you looked horrible. 1446 01:22:36,479 --> 01:22:39,599 Speaker 1: I don't know, data and actually captured the moment perfectly, 1447 01:22:39,960 --> 01:22:42,080 Speaker 1: so I read that I was reading exactly your verbate. 1448 01:22:42,240 --> 01:22:45,160 Speaker 1: Obviously in the lead up to this, um buzz. Patterson's 1449 01:22:45,200 --> 01:22:47,800 Speaker 1: also with us. Remember he carried the nuclear football for 1450 01:22:47,840 --> 01:22:50,840 Speaker 1: President Clinton. Author of Dereliction of Duty, a bestseller, How 1451 01:22:50,880 --> 01:22:54,519 Speaker 1: Bill Clinton compromised America's national security. And he also was 1452 01:22:54,560 --> 01:22:58,120 Speaker 1: an airline pilot. Now you flew Delta Airlines, what fifteen years? 1453 01:22:59,080 --> 01:23:03,000 Speaker 1: That's correction, fifteen years. Just retired actually this past fall 1454 01:23:03,080 --> 01:23:05,240 Speaker 1: to get back into writing and speaking. All right, now, 1455 01:23:05,280 --> 01:23:08,679 Speaker 1: I found a story about Southwest Airlines over the weekend, 1456 01:23:08,720 --> 01:23:11,120 Speaker 1: and in the light of all of these horrific stories, 1457 01:23:11,120 --> 01:23:14,839 Speaker 1: this was a couple of years ago where Southwest Airlines. 1458 01:23:14,880 --> 01:23:17,519 Speaker 1: A woman on a plane and Raleigh dorm about to 1459 01:23:17,560 --> 01:23:21,599 Speaker 1: go to Chicago. Pilot aboard of the takeoff taxis back 1460 01:23:21,600 --> 01:23:24,760 Speaker 1: to the gate they come and they asked the woman 1461 01:23:24,800 --> 01:23:26,280 Speaker 1: to get off the plane. She's thinking, oh my gosh, 1462 01:23:26,320 --> 01:23:28,400 Speaker 1: maybe I got on a wrong plane. They go to 1463 01:23:28,439 --> 01:23:31,360 Speaker 1: the desk. She has to call her husband. Apparently her 1464 01:23:31,360 --> 01:23:34,639 Speaker 1: twenty four year old son in in Colorado. In Denver 1465 01:23:35,000 --> 01:23:38,680 Speaker 1: had a serious injury was in a coma. Well, then 1466 01:23:38,680 --> 01:23:41,280 Speaker 1: they knew the situation. They booked a woman a direct 1467 01:23:41,360 --> 01:23:44,720 Speaker 1: flight to Denver that was leaving in two hours. They 1468 01:23:44,720 --> 01:23:48,800 Speaker 1: offered a private waiting area. Considering all the emotional pain 1469 01:23:48,840 --> 01:23:51,920 Speaker 1: and suffering she's going through, they rerouted the woman's luggage. 1470 01:23:52,200 --> 01:23:55,080 Speaker 1: She boarded first they packed her a lunch. When she 1471 01:23:55,160 --> 01:23:57,400 Speaker 1: got to Denver, her luggage was delivered. She didn't have 1472 01:23:57,439 --> 01:23:59,920 Speaker 1: to wait for it. Southwest never asked for a die 1473 01:24:00,200 --> 01:24:03,800 Speaker 1: for the flight, the luggage delivery, or anything else. And 1474 01:24:03,920 --> 01:24:05,920 Speaker 1: it turns out, thank god, her son is okay. Now 1475 01:24:06,040 --> 01:24:09,320 Speaker 1: that's the difference between say, what we've been seeing, what 1476 01:24:09,520 --> 01:24:12,280 Speaker 1: just happened to Lucian, what happened to this guy dragged 1477 01:24:12,320 --> 01:24:15,360 Speaker 1: across the floor because they overbooked the flight, and what 1478 01:24:15,479 --> 01:24:19,200 Speaker 1: happened to that poor woman with twins? Yeah, you know, Sean, 1479 01:24:19,240 --> 01:24:23,120 Speaker 1: there's no there's there are certain cultures amongst the airlines 1480 01:24:23,160 --> 01:24:26,320 Speaker 1: and and no tour alike. Southwest has got a great culture. 1481 01:24:26,800 --> 01:24:28,800 Speaker 1: Delta has got a great culture. You know, we knew 1482 01:24:28,800 --> 01:24:31,360 Speaker 1: who we were. We were, we were there for a reason, 1483 01:24:31,400 --> 01:24:34,360 Speaker 1: and customer service of the priority. Some of the other 1484 01:24:34,840 --> 01:24:38,960 Speaker 1: legacy airlines like United in America a much more amalgamation 1485 01:24:39,000 --> 01:24:43,639 Speaker 1: of different airlines with no real clear defining corporate vision. 1486 01:24:44,120 --> 01:24:46,679 Speaker 1: And that's where you have problems like you had yesterday. 1487 01:24:46,720 --> 01:24:48,840 Speaker 1: I mean, I can't imagine, I mean, been a cathinically 1488 01:24:48,880 --> 01:24:51,679 Speaker 1: been an airline pilot of Delta and flowing through Miami 1489 01:24:51,760 --> 01:24:55,320 Speaker 1: a thousand times I can't imagine boarding passengers on an 1490 01:24:55,320 --> 01:24:59,040 Speaker 1: airplane and Miami heat with without air conditioning. Because there's 1491 01:24:59,040 --> 01:25:01,919 Speaker 1: two ways you can condition an airplane. There's the internal 1492 01:25:01,960 --> 01:25:04,840 Speaker 1: system that the airplanes have that can can do it 1493 01:25:04,880 --> 01:25:08,880 Speaker 1: without any any ground aid or support. But there's also 1494 01:25:09,040 --> 01:25:12,320 Speaker 1: especially in Miami, they have a phenomenal system with all 1495 01:25:12,360 --> 01:25:15,280 Speaker 1: the gates where they have gate gate assistant air which 1496 01:25:15,320 --> 01:25:18,280 Speaker 1: will actually get the airplane is really really cool. So 1497 01:25:18,400 --> 01:25:22,960 Speaker 1: to board people without that capability or not having it 1498 01:25:23,000 --> 01:25:24,639 Speaker 1: turned on. I don't know if he was an operative, 1499 01:25:24,640 --> 01:25:26,760 Speaker 1: whatever the problem was, but the poor people not kind 1500 01:25:26,800 --> 01:25:29,639 Speaker 1: of heat. It's just been to Maine and I personally 1501 01:25:29,640 --> 01:25:31,960 Speaker 1: have never heard of that happening. Let me ask Lucien 1502 01:25:32,040 --> 01:25:34,880 Speaker 1: this now, because this is pretty amazing to me. Now, 1503 01:25:35,200 --> 01:25:36,840 Speaker 1: let's go back to the case of this poor guy 1504 01:25:36,880 --> 01:25:39,400 Speaker 1: that was dragged down the aisleand the United in that case, 1505 01:25:39,439 --> 01:25:41,640 Speaker 1: they overbooked a flight. Now, I saw an article that 1506 01:25:41,760 --> 01:25:44,960 Speaker 1: apparently in April, I guess it was that Southwest said 1507 01:25:45,000 --> 01:25:47,320 Speaker 1: they're ending the practice of overbooking flights. Good for them. 1508 01:25:47,320 --> 01:25:50,679 Speaker 1: It seems like Southwest and some of these other companies 1509 01:25:50,720 --> 01:25:52,920 Speaker 1: are like I've had a good experience with Jet Blue, 1510 01:25:53,000 --> 01:25:54,840 Speaker 1: I've never had a bad experience with Jet Blue, and 1511 01:25:55,080 --> 01:25:57,360 Speaker 1: I've been delayed like everybody else. We had a great 1512 01:25:57,400 --> 01:25:59,840 Speaker 1: experience with all all every time we've flown them. Great 1513 01:25:59,840 --> 01:26:03,160 Speaker 1: at experience. We flew United, No do, we flew Delta back? 1514 01:26:03,200 --> 01:26:05,680 Speaker 1: Was it Delta United? Delta? Okay, we flew Delta back. 1515 01:26:05,800 --> 01:26:07,880 Speaker 1: Great experience. That was so nice to us. So I 1516 01:26:07,920 --> 01:26:10,519 Speaker 1: always give kudos one do. But I just read that 1517 01:26:10,560 --> 01:26:13,000 Speaker 1: they settled with the guy they dragged down the aisle, 1518 01:26:13,120 --> 01:26:15,240 Speaker 1: and I'm thinking whatever they would have offered if they 1519 01:26:15,320 --> 01:26:17,760 Speaker 1: kept up in the Anti Lucian all right, we'll give 1520 01:26:17,800 --> 01:26:20,559 Speaker 1: you four tickets to any one of our destinations, four 1521 01:26:20,560 --> 01:26:24,360 Speaker 1: first class tickets, eight first class tickets, hotel accommodations, and 1522 01:26:24,400 --> 01:26:27,439 Speaker 1: three thousand dollars cash. I'll raising my hand. I'm taking 1523 01:26:27,439 --> 01:26:30,120 Speaker 1: that deal. At some point. Whatever they ended up paying 1524 01:26:30,120 --> 01:26:33,439 Speaker 1: this guy is thousand times more than what they would 1525 01:26:33,439 --> 01:26:35,880 Speaker 1: have paid if they just did it the right way. 1526 01:26:36,560 --> 01:26:39,400 Speaker 1: I don't get absolutely. I mean, you know you have 1527 01:26:39,520 --> 01:26:43,400 Speaker 1: the the United CEO oscar. You knows. I think it 1528 01:26:43,520 --> 01:26:47,200 Speaker 1: is um. He recently said, oh we forgot our customers 1529 01:26:47,200 --> 01:26:50,840 Speaker 1: were actual human beings. He said that actions will speak 1530 01:26:50,840 --> 01:26:53,960 Speaker 1: louder than words and that you see them continuing to 1531 01:26:54,200 --> 01:26:56,479 Speaker 1: two mystery customers. I mean, you know they just killed 1532 01:26:56,560 --> 01:26:59,760 Speaker 1: that prized rabbit on one of their flights. Uh. I 1533 01:26:59,760 --> 01:27:03,639 Speaker 1: mean there's so many there's so many repeated incidents with them, 1534 01:27:03,680 --> 01:27:06,400 Speaker 1: and it just doesn't seem like they want us exactly 1535 01:27:06,439 --> 01:27:09,559 Speaker 1: what you went through this weekend? Oh well yeah, so 1536 01:27:09,600 --> 01:27:13,600 Speaker 1: they Originally it was a delay. I actually had a 1537 01:27:13,120 --> 01:27:16,280 Speaker 1: connecting flight back down to a two D C here. 1538 01:27:16,840 --> 01:27:20,599 Speaker 1: So they for whatever reason decided to border to board us. 1539 01:27:21,080 --> 01:27:25,760 Speaker 1: Three hours later, No I C no water. Um, they 1540 01:27:25,800 --> 01:27:28,559 Speaker 1: pull the plane out. They finally decide to whee talk 1541 01:27:28,600 --> 01:27:31,080 Speaker 1: and let people get to americ conditioning. After an elderly 1542 01:27:31,080 --> 01:27:34,599 Speaker 1: woman passes out of heat stroke on the on the flight, 1543 01:27:34,680 --> 01:27:37,040 Speaker 1: sitting on the ground a flight. They let us out 1544 01:27:37,080 --> 01:27:39,920 Speaker 1: for maybe half an hour an hour or so, uh, 1545 01:27:40,320 --> 01:27:44,559 Speaker 1: just to get some air conditioning in the actual airport. Um. 1546 01:27:44,680 --> 01:27:46,200 Speaker 1: And then all of a sudden they say, okay, all 1547 01:27:46,240 --> 01:27:49,479 Speaker 1: of you, we need you back on the flight immediately. Um, 1548 01:27:49,560 --> 01:27:51,320 Speaker 1: we're still working on it, but it'll be it'll be 1549 01:27:51,439 --> 01:27:54,559 Speaker 1: just fifteen minutes of waiting. They pulled the plane back 1550 01:27:54,560 --> 01:27:57,759 Speaker 1: out another two two and a half hours later, sitting 1551 01:27:58,040 --> 01:28:00,599 Speaker 1: and sitting in the exact same situation, Shan. I mean, 1552 01:28:01,160 --> 01:28:03,880 Speaker 1: it's it's just it's a it's amazing how they really 1553 01:28:03,960 --> 01:28:07,000 Speaker 1: coute treat up. How about this? How long into the 1554 01:28:08,280 --> 01:28:11,679 Speaker 1: heat sit in was it before this poor woman passed out? 1555 01:28:12,360 --> 01:28:14,479 Speaker 1: It was a good three hours okay, and it's still 1556 01:28:14,479 --> 01:28:19,200 Speaker 1: one on another two hours after Yeah, okay, maybe after 1557 01:28:19,320 --> 01:28:21,400 Speaker 1: a woman passes out, maybe that's kind of a good 1558 01:28:21,400 --> 01:28:24,360 Speaker 1: sign that maybe it's time to get some conditioning for 1559 01:28:24,360 --> 01:28:26,880 Speaker 1: the people. You know, I know, a little bit of water. 1560 01:28:27,439 --> 01:28:29,400 Speaker 1: I don't know, Buzz, did you experience anything like this 1561 01:28:29,439 --> 01:28:31,639 Speaker 1: in your years as a pilote. I've never had that 1562 01:28:31,640 --> 01:28:34,680 Speaker 1: that situation that I've experienced. I've seen some issues over 1563 01:28:34,800 --> 01:28:37,880 Speaker 1: my fifteen years. But I'm really kind of in a 1564 01:28:37,960 --> 01:28:41,599 Speaker 1: quandary Shan about this whole situation, because, um, I don't 1565 01:28:41,960 --> 01:28:44,400 Speaker 1: understand how I would have to ask your other guests 1566 01:28:44,400 --> 01:28:46,639 Speaker 1: if they ever got airblord, who were they taxing out? 1567 01:28:46,760 --> 01:28:48,639 Speaker 1: What was this? What was the scenario? Are they going 1568 01:28:48,680 --> 01:28:51,880 Speaker 1: out to the to the runway to hold for the 1569 01:28:51,960 --> 01:28:54,080 Speaker 1: weather in the northeast? Why where were you guys able 1570 01:28:54,120 --> 01:28:57,000 Speaker 1: to be able to get in the air Um? You know, 1571 01:28:57,080 --> 01:28:59,320 Speaker 1: I really don't know, they said that they were still 1572 01:28:59,400 --> 01:29:02,679 Speaker 1: working on plane. UM. I don't know why they'd board 1573 01:29:02,720 --> 01:29:06,280 Speaker 1: passengers in general if they're if they're uh anticipating that 1574 01:29:06,360 --> 01:29:08,599 Speaker 1: much maintenance to do. UM. I mean, you know, when 1575 01:29:08,600 --> 01:29:10,479 Speaker 1: you drop off a car to the mechanic, he doesn't 1576 01:29:10,520 --> 01:29:12,760 Speaker 1: ask you to to wait in the car for five 1577 01:29:12,800 --> 01:29:15,120 Speaker 1: hours while they're talking about it. They never they never 1578 01:29:15,160 --> 01:29:16,840 Speaker 1: should have boarded, you guys. And the other thing that 1579 01:29:16,880 --> 01:29:19,240 Speaker 1: probably didn't sound like it happened was that the captains 1580 01:29:19,280 --> 01:29:22,519 Speaker 1: just should have been on the public announcement system every 1581 01:29:22,520 --> 01:29:25,439 Speaker 1: fifteen minute telling you guys what was going on and um. 1582 01:29:25,680 --> 01:29:27,120 Speaker 1: And never should have let it get to the point 1583 01:29:27,120 --> 01:29:29,600 Speaker 1: where he got that hot on the airplane especially. I 1584 01:29:29,640 --> 01:29:32,040 Speaker 1: mean there's there's ice on the airplane that they're catered properly. 1585 01:29:32,080 --> 01:29:34,920 Speaker 1: There could have been there could have been uh, you know, cops, drinks, 1586 01:29:35,320 --> 01:29:37,200 Speaker 1: all those kind of things, because how do you not 1587 01:29:37,280 --> 01:29:39,760 Speaker 1: have water on the plane. All right, give me a 1588 01:29:39,800 --> 01:29:42,400 Speaker 1: beer or something. I'll take any type of fluid at 1589 01:29:42,400 --> 01:29:46,679 Speaker 1: that point, I mean two hour round and I would 1590 01:29:46,680 --> 01:29:49,559 Speaker 1: have made it possible. We probably never would even got 1591 01:29:49,560 --> 01:29:52,839 Speaker 1: on the airplane in the first place, because again in Miami, 1592 01:29:52,920 --> 01:29:56,160 Speaker 1: they have ground control and air conditioning units for the airplanes. 1593 01:29:56,240 --> 01:29:59,760 Speaker 1: And I can't imagine why they weren't hooked up and operating, uh, 1594 01:29:59,800 --> 01:30:02,519 Speaker 1: the entire time those guys are pursuing, they're just melting 1595 01:30:02,760 --> 01:30:06,320 Speaker 1: in the sun. Wow, I am, I am stunned about 1596 01:30:06,320 --> 01:30:08,920 Speaker 1: everything that I'm hearing here. I really am. Well, I 1597 01:30:08,960 --> 01:30:11,360 Speaker 1: think some of these things are easy. You know, maybe 1598 01:30:11,400 --> 01:30:14,360 Speaker 1: I'm just old fashioned. But with the woman, I think 1599 01:30:14,400 --> 01:30:16,760 Speaker 1: you say to the woman, can I help you? Can 1600 01:30:17,560 --> 01:30:19,479 Speaker 1: I help you with that, ma'am? And maybe in the 1601 01:30:19,520 --> 01:30:23,160 Speaker 1: case of the guys, sir, we're looking for volunteers, we'll 1602 01:30:23,240 --> 01:30:25,960 Speaker 1: keep up in the antie. Somebody's gonna take you know, 1603 01:30:26,080 --> 01:30:29,960 Speaker 1: the four eight tickets for free, don't you think, Colonel Yeah, 1604 01:30:30,000 --> 01:30:33,040 Speaker 1: I think we've done down the process, the whole process, 1605 01:30:33,080 --> 01:30:36,160 Speaker 1: so dramatically, Sean. You know, we get we get we 1606 01:30:36,200 --> 01:30:39,719 Speaker 1: get discradled employees, we get discrautled passengers, we get speddled 1607 01:30:39,920 --> 01:30:41,760 Speaker 1: the t s A. Agents, And by the time people 1608 01:30:41,800 --> 01:30:45,400 Speaker 1: actually get on the airplane, they're exhausted and only wanted 1609 01:30:45,400 --> 01:30:47,960 Speaker 1: a little common sense, a little, a little politeness, a 1610 01:30:47,960 --> 01:30:51,400 Speaker 1: little a little assistance.

When 1612 01:30:54,400 --> 01:30:56,639 Speaker 1: when does the pilot get to make a call if 1613 01:30:56,640 --> 01:30:59,519 Speaker 1: you have an unruly flight attendant, like in the case 1614 01:30:59,520 --> 01:31:02,040 Speaker 1: of the guys sticking his finger in the other guy's face. 1615 01:31:02,479 --> 01:31:05,080 Speaker 1: That that I saw that video and that captain should 1616 01:31:05,080 --> 01:31:07,240 Speaker 1: have been right there and he I saw him back off. 1617 01:31:07,439 --> 01:31:10,280 Speaker 1: That's that's inappropriate.
