1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,080 Speaker 1: Well, we've got some serious insight that has just been 2 00:00:03,120 --> 00:00:08,360 Speaker 1: released by Congressman Jim Jordan, who has explained the fourteen 3 00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:14,040 Speaker 1: FBI whistleblowers, and he said, frankly, we anticipate there to 4 00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:18,120 Speaker 1: be many more. That's right. Representive Jim Jordan, the top 5 00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:21,720 Speaker 1: Republican on the House Judiciary Committee, has been fielding whistleblower 6 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:26,960 Speaker 1: allegations against officials at the DOJ and the FBI since 7 00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:33,239 Speaker 1: last November. Bright Bart News spoke with Congressman Jordan and 8 00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:37,360 Speaker 1: his staff about the whistle blowers after multiple reports circulated 9 00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:41,360 Speaker 1: this week that took comments Jordan made on the matter 10 00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:45,920 Speaker 1: during a recent television appearance out of context. No, the 11 00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 1: media would actually lie. I can't believe it, Jim Jordan 12 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:56,240 Speaker 1: said Sunday to Fox News is Trey Gaudy that fourteen 13 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:59,160 Speaker 1: whistle blowers from within the FBI had come forward to 14 00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 1: his office. That's what he said. I'm gonna give you 15 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 1: the exact quote. Fourteen FBI agents have come to our 16 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:09,720 Speaker 1: office as whistle blowers, and they are good people. There 17 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,560 Speaker 1: are lots of good people in the FBI. It's the 18 00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:15,560 Speaker 1: top that's the problem. But some of these good agents 19 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 1: are coming to us telling us. This is belogning what's 20 00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 1: going on the political nature now of the Justice Department. Now, 21 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:26,680 Speaker 1: before I get into more of this story, I want 22 00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:28,440 Speaker 1: to say thank you and tell you about our good 23 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:31,480 Speaker 1: friends at Legacy Precious Metals.

Now, several news organizations got it 41 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:37,359 Speaker 1: wrong after that right, several reports wrongly associated the fourteen 42 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 1: whistle blowers with the FBI raid that occurred on August eighth. 43 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 1: Former President Donald Trump smartlogo residents. Newsweek and MSNBC, for example, 44 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 1: cast doubt on the number of whistle blowers. So, in 45 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 1: other words, you come forward and Jim Jordan says there's 46 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,919 Speaker 1: fourteen whistle blowers, and then immediately MSNBC comes out in 47 00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,200 Speaker 1: Newsweek and they're like, wow, we doubt the number based 48 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,080 Speaker 1: on what were the blow we're talking to, you know, 49 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:04,239 Speaker 1: so why don't you shut up? Because these are scumbags 50 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 1: in the leftist media. In fact, news Week reported on 51 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 1: a quote wave of skepticism quote unquote from who, by 52 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 1: the way, where's the wave of skepticism? Show me the 53 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 1: wave of skepticism. This is again another example of how 54 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 1: much they lie. They're they're they're awful, horrible human beings, 55 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 1: triggered quote unquote by Jordan's comments. While MSNBC's Matt alblog 56 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 1: derived Jordan's track record as a serious lawmaker, I'm not kidding, 57 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 1: Jordan asserted to bright Bart News that he has, in 58 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 1: fact had fourteen whistleblowers speak to his office about the 59 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 1: Justice Department in the FBI, but that all of them 60 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 1: approached his office prior to the Trump raide clearing this up. 61 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: It started when we realized that the Justice Department was 62 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:57,040 Speaker 1: doing what the Just Department was doing relative to parents, 63 00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 1: and the whole school board issue referring parents is tomestic terrorists, 64 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 1: Jordan said, in reference to those allegations. In reference allegations 65 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 1: one whistle blower made to Jordan's office in November of 66 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:14,119 Speaker 1: twenty twenty one, that the FBI was taking counter terrorism 67 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:18,600 Speaker 1: measures to investigate parents who it deemed a threat at 68 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:22,359 Speaker 1: school board meetings. In other words, bring the full weight 69 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 1: of the United States government, the DOJ, and the FBI 70 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:33,040 Speaker 1: against parents. Then Jim Jordan had another whistleblower contact him 71 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 1: and listened to the timeline because this is where the 72 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:38,040 Speaker 1: media is getting it all wrong. In March of twenty 73 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 1: twenty two, who raised questions about the progress and extent 74 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 1: quote unquote of the FBI's investigation into two pipe bombs 75 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 1: that the FBI said were placed near the Republican National 76 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 1: Committee and the Democratic National Committee the night before the 77 00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 1: January sixth Capitol riot. In other words, raising questions about 78 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 1: did it really happen. In May of twenty twenty, Jordan 79 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:12,560 Speaker 1: sided several whistleblowers quote unquote who had contacted his office 80 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:19,040 Speaker 1: with claims. Listen carefully that the FBI was retaliating against 81 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 1: agents who engaged in protecting First Amendment activity on January 82 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 1: the six twenty twenty one. Now, this is probably the 83 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 1: most important one I've mentioned so far. You have FBI 84 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:36,040 Speaker 1: agents that are being retaliated against by the top brass 85 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 1: of the FBI. These whistleblowers are claiming who engaged in 86 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 1: protecting First Amendment activities on January the six In other words, 87 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:45,920 Speaker 1: they're just not going to let the government go rogue 88 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 1: and just start locking everybody up who was in around 89 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 1: January the sixth, and you do have a protected, constitutionally 90 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:59,799 Speaker 1: protected First Amendment right. That is when quote several whistleblowers 91 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 1: contacted his office. When a whistle blower contacts Congressman Jordan, 92 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,919 Speaker 1: Jordan's team then proceed to vet the whistleblower and his 93 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:12,840 Speaker 1: or her allegations. Is how one aide to the congressman 94 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 1: explained it. At times, the aide said the whistle blower 95 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:22,160 Speaker 1: complaint has led Congressmen Jordan to another whistle blower, who 96 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 1: then cooborates the initial allegation or adds to it. And 97 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:30,920 Speaker 1: at other times the identity or allegation of the whistle 98 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 1: blower cannot be verified and the allegation falls flat. Jordan 99 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 1: keeps a record of each whistleblower complaint and and if 100 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,839 Speaker 1: useful information has come of the complaint, the AID explained. 101 00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:46,120 Speaker 1: In other words, they're doing this in a very, very 102 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:50,160 Speaker 1: orderly and methodical way. The AID also noted that Jordan 103 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:55,960 Speaker 1: has been able to use information from fourteen different whistle blowers, 104 00:06:56,600 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 1: but that Jordan's records contained name of more than fourteen 105 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:05,600 Speaker 1: individuals who had made at least initial contact with his office, 106 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 1: so there's more. Jordan, who has served on the Judiciary 107 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 1: Committee since he joined Congress in two thousand and seven, said, quote, 108 00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 1: this is truly not something I've ever seen where you 109 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 1: have this many people, all FBI agents, all coming to 110 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: us as whistleblowers. He said. I think the reason they 111 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 1: come to us is they know they can trust us 112 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:34,200 Speaker 1: and well will work with them. Jordan said. When they 113 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 1: come to us in the minority, all we can really 114 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 1: do is begin to tell their story. We can't subpoena. 115 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 1: We can't do the things that you can typically obviously 116 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 1: do in the majority, but yet they're still willing to 117 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 1: come forward, which I think underscores how political that place 118 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:58,679 Speaker 1: referring to the FBI and the DOJ has become should 119 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 1: Republicans take the majority in November. Jordan said he is 120 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 1: poised to serve as the chair of the committee and 121 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 1: has already publicly indicated his intent to formally investigate the 122 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 1: Justice Department in the FBI. And this is where the 123 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:17,600 Speaker 1: accusations are coming in from the media. As I told 124 00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 1: you and played for you yesterday, that if you even 125 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 1: question the DOJ, or even question the FBI leadership, you 126 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 1: are immediately going to be labeled as a domestic terrorist. 127 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:34,679 Speaker 1: On the meantime, with FBI whistleblower allegations, Congressman Jordan has 128 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:39,199 Speaker 1: typically contacted the Attorney General Merrick Garland or the FBI 129 00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:43,120 Speaker 1: Director Christopher Ray to demand more information about allegations when 130 00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 1: he feels he has strong enough information through the whistleblower 131 00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:53,280 Speaker 1: or whistleblowers to take that step. Now, the letter become public, 132 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,840 Speaker 1: the letters quote become public correspondence, and therefore create awareness 133 00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:01,560 Speaker 1: about allegations being made against the FBI and the Justice 134 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 1: Department when he writes that letter to these departments, but 135 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 1: confirming the allegations and holding those relevant accountable would require 136 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:15,439 Speaker 1: Republicans to schedule keerings and potentially issue subpoenas, which they 137 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:19,840 Speaker 1: cannot do. In the minority quote, in terms of responsiveness 138 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 1: from Garland or Ray, Jordan said, it's basically nothing every time, 139 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 1: and if we get something back, it's usually a pretty 140 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 1: cryptic one or two paragraph response. Now we've attained one 141 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 1: response to letters Jordan sent back in November of twenty 142 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 1: twenty one, demanding an assortment of documents related to the 143 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 1: school board issue, including one letter sent on November the 144 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 1: sixteenth about the aforementioned whistleblowers allegation on the matter. The 145 00:09:55,280 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 1: Justice Department's response, which was sent two months later, reveals 146 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 1: the department declined to provide Jordan with the requested documents 147 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 1: because that's how they roll at the FBI and the 148 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:15,679 Speaker 1: Justice Department. Yeah, nothing, that's what they gave them. Nothing 149 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:18,680 Speaker 1: Because why would you deal with Republicans when you don't 150 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 1: have to write? Why would you deal with Republicans when 151 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 1: it doesn't even matter? So why deal with Republicans when 152 00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:29,680 Speaker 1: you don't have to write Why would you deal with 153 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:33,320 Speaker 1: Republicans when it doesn't even matter because you're in the majority. 154 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 1: That's exactly what the FBI and the DOJ are doing 155 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:41,720 Speaker 1: when Republicans write them letters. And Joe Biden has now 156 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 1: come to the defense of the FBI and the DOJ. 157 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:51,959 Speaker 1: Biden quote rejects defunding the FBI and mid calls from 158 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 1: some Republicans now x CIA official Philip mud who is 159 00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:02,840 Speaker 1: one of the best hacks on TV over CNN, implied 160 00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 1: this week that if you are against the FBI right, 161 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:11,680 Speaker 1: if you ask questions, then you want little children to 162 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:16,120 Speaker 1: be raped. Not joking right now. The White House loves 163 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:18,679 Speaker 1: him for being a hack, and the White House has 164 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:21,679 Speaker 1: come out strongly condemning the calls from some members of 165 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 1: the Republican Party, including some elected lawmakers, to defund the 166 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:28,839 Speaker 1: FBI in the wake of last week's search a former 167 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:32,880 Speaker 1: President Donald Trump's Marlago estate. The pushback marks the White 168 00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:36,320 Speaker 1: House's most aggressive response to the FBI's search to date, 169 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 1: and comes as other Republicans, including former Vice President Mike 170 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 1: penz Er, sounding alarms on this message amid heightened threats 171 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 1: to law enforcement. Just like President Biden rejected defund the police. 172 00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 1: He rejects defunding other law enforcement, including the FBI, is 173 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:55,200 Speaker 1: what the White House Deputy Press Secretary Andrew Bates sent 174 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:58,760 Speaker 1: a statement. The presidents called for boosting police funding through 175 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 1: the Cops Program in high one hundred thousand additional officers. 176 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:04,160 Speaker 1: Well guess what the rest of your party says, screw you. 177 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:08,040 Speaker 1: He also include over ten point eight billion for the 178 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,559 Speaker 1: FBI and the most recent budget. Yeah, I believe it, 179 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:13,080 Speaker 1: especially after seeing what he's going to do with the irs. 180 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:16,080 Speaker 1: The men and women who bravely serve in law enforcement 181 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 1: to keep us all safe deserve the resources and support 182 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 1: they need to do their jobs, not seeing their budget slash. 183 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 1: All right, I gotta pause. There, Where the hell was 184 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 1: this president when the Democrats were trying to defund the police, 185 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:31,880 Speaker 1: and we're doing it successfully all over the country in 186 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 1: liberal cities like right right. Where was all of this? 187 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:40,720 Speaker 1: Where it was it? I'm genuinely curious, because you guys 188 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 1: weren't out there saying don't do it. Okay. You guys 189 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:46,960 Speaker 1: weren't out there saying, oh, we want to be very clear, 190 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 1: this is something that it would be terrible, and we 191 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 1: were never going to stand as a party to defund 192 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 1: the police. Like that's not out there, that was never there. 193 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:58,240 Speaker 1: You guys never gave us that right, Like it wasn't 194 00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 1: like that's something you guys. Let the defund the police 195 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 1: movement moved forward, no problem at all. Look at the 196 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:09,319 Speaker 1: violent crime that has recently hit in New York City. 197 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:15,320 Speaker 1: You guys may have seen this recent video of two 198 00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:19,080 Speaker 1: elderly people violently attacked in New York City. It's gone 199 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:22,959 Speaker 1: viral and these videos. In fact, last night on Hannity, 200 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 1: they were talking about this and saying and they had 201 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,319 Speaker 1: Leah Terrell on, the former New York City mayoral Cannet 202 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 1: Kurtswila on to talk about these violent instances where people 203 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:34,599 Speaker 1: are mining their own business and they just get attacked. 204 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 1: Why is it happening New York because of defund the police, 205 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 1: because of the anti police rhetoric that it was actually 206 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:48,119 Speaker 1: put into a place by activist das and by elected officials. 207 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 1: And then the White House wants to come out and 208 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 1: now say, oh, we're in favor of funding the police. 209 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 1: No you're not, you never have been. You're liars, and 210 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:57,960 Speaker 1: you sure as how will fund the FBI when they're 211 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:00,840 Speaker 1: doing your dirty political work for you, and I do 212 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,720 Speaker 1: think there's an important distinction that needs to be made 213 00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 1: quickly when people like myself and others are talking about 214 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 1: defunding the FBI. The point is, if you're not going 215 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:12,920 Speaker 1: to fix it, then we need to break it down 216 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 1: and start all over. Okay, I want to be clear. 217 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 1: And by the way, if you want to know if 218 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 1: Mike Pence is running for president, he is. Okay, he's 219 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 1: doing everything he can to separate himself from Donald Trump. 220 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:29,320 Speaker 1: In fact, he came out last night being a useful 221 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 1: idiot for the left and it's call and he says 222 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 1: calls did fund the FBI or just as wrong as 223 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 1: calls to fund the police. The police wasn't going around 224 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:40,240 Speaker 1: rating former presidents house you moron. This is why I'm 225 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:42,480 Speaker 1: not a big fan of Mike Pence. Want to be clear, listen. 226 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 1: I also want to remind my fellow Republicans we can 227 00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:53,560 Speaker 1: hold the Attorney General accountable for the decision that he 228 00:14:54,000 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: made without attacking the rank and file law enforce personnel 229 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 1: at the FBI. The Republican Party is the party of 230 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:13,480 Speaker 1: law and order. Our party stands with the men and 231 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 1: women who serve on the thin blue line at the 232 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 1: federal and state and local level, and these attacks on 233 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:24,480 Speaker 1: the FBI must stop. Calls to define the FBI are 234 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 1: just as wrong as calls to defund the police. I 235 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 1: couldn't disagree with him more right. I think this is 236 00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 1: total crap. I think this is political pandering by Mike Pence. 237 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:37,600 Speaker 1: I think that he's trying to figure out his lane 238 00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 1: to run for the presidency and get out from underneath 239 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:44,560 Speaker 1: Donald Trump's shadow. I think his point he goes, well, 240 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:46,240 Speaker 1: you know you can. I'm not sure you can reform 241 00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:49,440 Speaker 1: the FBI based on what they're doing. You know, Mike 242 00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:53,120 Speaker 1: Pinch should understand this. The FBI has helped people from 243 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:58,280 Speaker 1: January sixth and solentary confinement, has gone around the country 244 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:01,440 Speaker 1: and and gone on a manhunt like we've never seen 245 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 1: before for political reasons. At the same time, allowing people 246 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 1: like Hillary Clinton to get away with classified documents. They're 247 00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:12,240 Speaker 1: abusing their power going after Donald Trump, General Flynn and 248 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 1: others like that the way that they did. And I 249 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 1: do believe that there are great men and women at 250 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:21,840 Speaker 1: the FBI. But the only way to get reform, in 251 00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:25,200 Speaker 1: my opinion, it's pretty simple. You have to pull on 252 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 1: the purse strings of the people who are acting this way. 253 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:35,040 Speaker 1: You have to that's the only option. And if you 254 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 1: don't do that, it's game over. Right. You don't really 255 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 1: have an option, folks, You just don't. You don't. Okay. Now, 256 00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:52,200 Speaker 1: there's another thing here that's important for people to understand, 257 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 1: and that is this. When you see Republicans like Mike 258 00:16:57,080 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 1: Pennce come out and talk this way, they are not 259 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:04,880 Speaker 1: helping fix the problem. There are a lot of corrupt 260 00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:07,159 Speaker 1: people within the FBI, and we can see it the 261 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:10,360 Speaker 1: Peter Strucks, the leasa's page, and all the top leadership. 262 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:13,640 Speaker 1: And you're gonna have to do something, Okay, you are. 263 00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:17,280 Speaker 1: You're just going to You're going to have to do 264 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:21,800 Speaker 1: something to fight back. You're gonna have to do something 265 00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:32,120 Speaker 1: to totally dismantle this organization for what it is and politics, 266 00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 1: the only thing that matters is money. That's it. The 267 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 1: only thing that matters is money. And the only time 268 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:44,920 Speaker 1: you get a response from pretty much anything from any 269 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:49,200 Speaker 1: one is if you take away their cash. And that's 270 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:54,360 Speaker 1: exactly what is being advocated for right now. And when 271 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 1: you say you need to defund an organization, it doesn't 272 00:17:57,560 --> 00:17:59,720 Speaker 1: mean that you're against what they do in general. It 273 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:02,440 Speaker 1: means that they've lost your way and you're it's a 274 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 1: broken organization, and that's clearly what we're dealing with right now. 275 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 1: You cannot trust the FBI, you cannot trust the Department 276 00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 1: of Justice at the highest levels. Why do you think 277 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,359 Speaker 1: some of whistleblowers are coming forward? And as Jim Jordan said, 278 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 1: there will be He has no doubt countless other individuals 279 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:27,160 Speaker 1: that are going to come forward as whistle blowers once 280 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 1: they feel comfortable. If the Republicans can actually do something 281 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 1: with their information. Right now, we can only just as 282 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:36,719 Speaker 1: he said, tell their stories. But being a useful idiot, 283 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 1: as Mike Pence is calling it, you know, coming out 284 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:42,920 Speaker 1: there and grandstanding, you have to understand why he's doing this. 285 00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:46,119 Speaker 1: It is to try to find his own lane. And 286 00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:49,200 Speaker 1: Mike Pence is delusional if he thinks people want to 287 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:53,119 Speaker 1: vote for him, the same way that Liz Cheney is 288 00:18:53,119 --> 00:18:56,159 Speaker 1: delusional that she thinks that after losing seventy thirty that 289 00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:58,080 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, now she needs to run for 290 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 1: president of the United It's America, and she believe that 291 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:04,639 Speaker 1: she's Abraham Lincoln. Senator Rampaul came on this morning on 292 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 1: Fox and frends. He said the burden on the FBI 293 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 1: to prove that mar Lago wasn't politically motivated. He said, 294 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:11,399 Speaker 1: that's the point here that people are missing, and he's 295 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 1: absolutely right. You can talk about defunding the FBI until 296 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:17,240 Speaker 1: they give you answers if they're stonewalling you, which is 297 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 1: exactly what they're doing now, and they're not being transparent, 298 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:22,160 Speaker 1: which is exactly what they're doing now. And they're going 299 00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 1: after political enemies, which is exactly what they've been doing 300 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:29,479 Speaker 1: the entire time since twenty and sixteen when they were 301 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:31,679 Speaker 1: trying to frame Donald Trump for crimes he did not commit, 302 00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:33,879 Speaker 1: and trying to get him kicked out of office, right, 303 00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:35,960 Speaker 1: get him in peach and overthrow the will of the people. 304 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 1: I would remind Mike Pence of that, So stop being 305 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:42,159 Speaker 1: a useful idiot. And Senator Rampaul's point is it's on 306 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 1: them now. It is on them to prove that the 307 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:51,680 Speaker 1: mar Lago raid wasn't politically motivated. Listen, good morning morning, 308 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:54,240 Speaker 1: Well thanks for coming on. We all were saying we 309 00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:56,280 Speaker 1: would take a bet that they are not going to 310 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:58,879 Speaker 1: be this affidavit's not going to be unsealed, because this 311 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:02,000 Speaker 1: is the judge, the same the same person that signed 312 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 1: the AOKA to go into Mara Lago. What do you think, Well, 313 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 1: you know, I think the burden is on the FBI 314 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:13,600 Speaker 1: to justify this rate. This is extraordinary. This is also 315 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 1: the same FBI that used a foreign intelligence warrant to 316 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:20,159 Speaker 1: snoop on and spy on the Trump campaign to investigate 317 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:22,679 Speaker 1: them for over two years. So I think the burden 318 00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:25,359 Speaker 1: really is on the FBI. They've been wrong in the past, 319 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 1: that broken the law in using these foreign intelligence warrants. 320 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,600 Speaker 1: Now they use a domestic warrant. But I do think 321 00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 1: they need to release the justification for this because this 322 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:37,119 Speaker 1: is extraordinary and we should not lose sight of the 323 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:40,919 Speaker 1: fact this has never ever happened before for a good reason, 324 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,480 Speaker 1: because we need to have confidence in the FBI. We 325 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 1: need to have confidence in our intelligence agencies that they 326 00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:48,760 Speaker 1: are there to protect us and not to go after 327 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:51,160 Speaker 1: people for political purposes. So the burden is on them 328 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:54,440 Speaker 1: to prove that this is not a politically motivated witch hunt. Sure, 329 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:58,159 Speaker 1: and you know we've heard a bad actors senator at 330 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:02,119 Speaker 1: the FBI years ago regarding Russia and Trump and stuff 331 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:05,359 Speaker 1: like that. This is consistent, right, the point he's making 332 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:11,200 Speaker 1: We are seeing event after event after event after event. Right, 333 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 1: We've seen this over and over again. Matt Gates, by 334 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 1: the way, GOP opponent has just dropped a ad suggesting 335 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:27,159 Speaker 1: he was an FBI informant behind raid on Trump's estate. 336 00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 1: This is how, this is how psycho people have become. 337 00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:35,440 Speaker 1: Has a new you know, has a new ad out 338 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:38,679 Speaker 1: there trying to undermine Matt Gates in this way, saying, oh, 339 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:42,280 Speaker 1: maybe he was the guy, right, maybe maybe this is 340 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:46,920 Speaker 1: the guy here that did this. Dershowitz, by the way, 341 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 1: he said it released affidavit could be redacted, and the 342 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:55,959 Speaker 1: FBI is saying they can't release that that affidavit right, 343 00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 1: saying no to it, the government saying no to it. 344 00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:00,960 Speaker 1: He said, look, you can redact certain things. This isn't hard. 345 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:03,639 Speaker 1: We've done this before. Don't let them tell you they 346 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:06,360 Speaker 1: can't do it because's an ongoing investigation. That's a lie. 347 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:09,000 Speaker 1: Listen to what he had to say on Hannity. I've 348 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:11,760 Speaker 1: had a principle for sixty years. I wrote about it 349 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:13,960 Speaker 1: in my new book, The Price of Principle, and that is, 350 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 1: if there's a dispute and one side wants the truth 351 00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:20,119 Speaker 1: to come out, and the other side says, no, we 352 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 1: don't want the truth to come out. Always believe the 353 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:26,399 Speaker 1: person who wants the truth to come out, that's the 354 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:30,160 Speaker 1: person who's telling the truth. And so the Trump people 355 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:33,720 Speaker 1: want the affidavit to be released. The Justice Department doesn't. 356 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 1: Now I'm not suggesting releasing the entire affidavit. You can 357 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:40,760 Speaker 1: redact the names of witnesses, you can redact the name 358 00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:44,919 Speaker 1: of agents, you can redact sources and methods. But let's 359 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:47,439 Speaker 1: know what they were looking for. I want to know, 360 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:50,199 Speaker 1: particularly because to get a search warrant of a safe, 361 00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:54,199 Speaker 1: you have to have very particular evidence what was in 362 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:57,359 Speaker 1: the safe. From reporting, we now know nothing was in 363 00:22:57,440 --> 00:22:59,439 Speaker 1: the same We need to know what was in the 364 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:03,919 Speaker 1: client of missus Trump. We need to know what was 365 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 1: in I think I can probably a good venture, a 366 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:10,040 Speaker 1: pretty good game. And Dershowitz here and by the way, 367 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 1: hand it's something funny there he goes that it was 368 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,439 Speaker 1: closed in the closet, right, But how did you get this? 369 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:18,800 Speaker 1: Now there's another part of this narrative, and this is 370 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:21,400 Speaker 1: again showing you where the media is going with this. 371 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 1: CNN is now reporting that Donald Trump's team is considering 372 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:31,560 Speaker 1: releasing the raid footage and now saying that this is 373 00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 1: evil because it would place the identities of the FBI 374 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:39,160 Speaker 1: agents at risk. You can blur out faces, by the way, 375 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:41,440 Speaker 1: when you release video. We do it all the time 376 00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:46,000 Speaker 1: to protect people's identities. And I go back to the 377 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 1: point that I made earlier about Mike Pence being a 378 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 1: useful idiot. Now for the left, you know where you 379 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:56,760 Speaker 1: notice everything is about protecting the FBI. None of the 380 00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:59,920 Speaker 1: conversation the media is having right now is about protect 381 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:03,439 Speaker 1: Donald Trump or the rights of citizens that are being 382 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:07,520 Speaker 1: abused by the head of the FBI and the DOJ. Right, 383 00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 1: Donald Trump is the front runner. He is the clear 384 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:13,399 Speaker 1: front runner. And the Republican about nominee and the Republican 385 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 1: you know, going for present like it's obvious here, right, 386 00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:22,640 Speaker 1: it's obvious. That's the reason why Joe Biden gave such 387 00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:28,800 Speaker 1: a bizarre and it was a bizarre answer on the FBI. Right, 388 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 1: it was. It was a strange answer. Listen to what Navarro, 389 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:38,720 Speaker 1: who was Peter Navarre, was on our show a couple 390 00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 1: of days ago. I had to say about all of 391 00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:45,800 Speaker 1: this claim, you go ahead and you told the agents 392 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:49,160 Speaker 1: to get the f out of here? True? The week 393 00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:53,439 Speaker 1: before they arrested me, they came to my door in 394 00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 1: the very early morning and almost kicked the door down 395 00:24:56,600 --> 00:25:02,159 Speaker 1: while I was asleep. And that kind of behavior was 396 00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:06,960 Speaker 1: totally unwarranted. It was bullying, coercive, terrorist kind of tactics. 397 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:09,879 Speaker 1: Because they knew full well I would have been happy 398 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:12,479 Speaker 1: to take that subpoena. They could have come at a 399 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:16,240 Speaker 1: reasonable hour. I was peaceful with them, but I sternly 400 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:20,080 Speaker 1: rebuked them for engaging in the kind of bullying coersion 401 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:23,440 Speaker 1: they did. But Sean, the important thing is two days 402 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:27,800 Speaker 1: before they arrested me, I called that same agent. I said, hey, Walter, 403 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 1: whatever you need, buddy, you don't have to kick my 404 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 1: door down again. I'm here to cooperate. And by the way, 405 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 1: that same day, June first, I sent a letter to 406 00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:42,000 Speaker 1: the Deputy of the District Attorney, Elizabeth Alloyd, seeking a 407 00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:45,680 Speaker 1: modus vivendi. I say, I'm look, I'm doing my constitutional 408 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 1: duty here. I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place. 409 00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:52,280 Speaker 1: Here's my attorney to call. And you know what, they 410 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:54,879 Speaker 1: didn't call that attorney. And in that brief they followed 411 00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:57,080 Speaker 1: to day Shawn, guess what they said, I didn't have 412 00:25:57,200 --> 00:26:03,920 Speaker 1: legal representation that was a lie. So relies. But they 413 00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:05,840 Speaker 1: of course they knew better. Of course they knew better. 414 00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 1: They look when they came in the early morning with 415 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:13,159 Speaker 1: that subpoenut it was unnecessary. I'll tell you one thing. 416 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:15,920 Speaker 1: He called me up and subserved it, and then they're 417 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 1: trying to bully us. I'll add one thing too, you 418 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:22,639 Speaker 1: know what, look at the Hillary Clinton case. They never 419 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:26,119 Speaker 1: they never knocked on her door. They didn't have a 420 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:29,280 Speaker 1: pre dawn raid like they did. Paul m. An Afford 421 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:32,119 Speaker 1: is going to join us next. Um. I can't remember 422 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,600 Speaker 1: a time that they put her in leg shackles or 423 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:39,159 Speaker 1: or in handcuffs. I don't remember Hunter Biden. And we 424 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,239 Speaker 1: know about the laptop. The FBI has had it now 425 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 1: for almost two years. I remember Hunter's home, uh being 426 00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:48,000 Speaker 1: you know, a pre dawn raid at his home. We 427 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:50,000 Speaker 1: know he lied on a gun application. We know that 428 00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:52,399 Speaker 1: gun ended up in a dumpster, and we know that 429 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:55,359 Speaker 1: he mentions the big guy his father a lot, and 430 00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:58,160 Speaker 1: he's implicated all over that laptop. And not a finger 431 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:00,680 Speaker 1: has been lifted in this case. So this certainly is 432 00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:03,719 Speaker 1: a two tier justice system, and that should be the 433 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:06,600 Speaker 1: point that Americans take away from this. They don't treat 434 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 1: democrats the way they treat conservatives. Period. They don't treat 435 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:15,920 Speaker 1: democrats the way they treat conservatives. Period. You heard Navarro there, 436 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:17,720 Speaker 1: He said the same thing when he was on our show. 437 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,160 Speaker 1: You know this idea. They said he didn't have representation, 438 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:25,160 Speaker 1: legal representation. He's like, that's a lie. I gave them 439 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:31,200 Speaker 1: my lawyers information when they came in days before. Don't 440 00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:34,680 Speaker 1: tell me that you didn't come in, that I didn't 441 00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:36,919 Speaker 1: come in. Don't tell me that you didn't have my 442 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:40,320 Speaker 1: lawyers information. I gave it to you. And by the way, 443 00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 1: I believe Peter Navarro certainly way more than I believe 444 00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:50,080 Speaker 1: the FBI at this point based on what they have done. 445 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:54,520 Speaker 1: So when Republicans and conservatives are saying we need to 446 00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:56,760 Speaker 1: defund the FBI until we get a handle on the place, 447 00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:58,719 Speaker 1: I don't blame them. Does that mean you're un American 448 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:01,639 Speaker 1: or anti American? No, it doesn't. Does that mean you 449 00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:03,560 Speaker 1: want little children to be raped? To see Ann Now 450 00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:06,240 Speaker 1: puts it, Wow, These Republicans claim that they care about children, 451 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:07,720 Speaker 1: but now they want chown to be raped because that 452 00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 1: two investigates child sex trafficking, human sex trafficking. I understand that. 453 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:15,280 Speaker 1: I'm not saying those investigations don't keep going. But at 454 00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 1: this point, if you don't get a hold of the 455 00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:20,679 Speaker 1: FBI where they're where they're literally advocating for overthrowing the 456 00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 1: will of the people in elections, then we lose our 457 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:25,359 Speaker 1: entire country. And by the way, there's a lot of 458 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:30,440 Speaker 1: other organizations that also go after human trafficking and sex trafficking. 459 00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 1: You can No one said get rid of the FBI 460 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:36,560 Speaker 1: and don't replace it. No one said don't start all 461 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,320 Speaker 1: over with it, right. No one said just get rid 462 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 1: of it and never bring it back. No one said that. 463 00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:50,320 Speaker 1: Tugger Carlson brought up a great point on his show 464 00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:53,440 Speaker 1: about the issue of trust and the FBI, and he said, look, 465 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 1: we cannot trust the FBI until its behaviors merit trust, 466 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:02,240 Speaker 1: which is exactly why people are saying, until they start 467 00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 1: acting with accountability and credibility and honesty and integrity again 468 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 1: at the highest levels, we should defund them. It's about 469 00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:14,120 Speaker 1: the rule of law, right, And the fact that the 470 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 1: White House is shocked and Merrick Garland is shocked, and 471 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:20,120 Speaker 1: the media is shocked, and Mike Pence is shocked by 472 00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:24,840 Speaker 1: the criticism of the FBI tells you how scumbaggy they 473 00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 1: all are, including Mike Pence. Listen to this geting and 474 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:31,960 Speaker 1: welcome to Tucker Carlson tonight. By all accounts, Attorney General 475 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:35,920 Speaker 1: Merrick Garland was shocked to hear criticism of the raid 476 00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:38,840 Speaker 1: on Mara Lago last week. It turns out that Garland 477 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:41,400 Speaker 1: lives in such a tiny, airless world of left wing 478 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 1: activists and sycophants that it had never occurred to him 479 00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:48,160 Speaker 1: that anyone might object to sicking the FBI on Joe 480 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 1: Biden's political opponents. When woke Twitter in the New York 481 00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:54,680 Speaker 1: Times are your only sources of news, police state politics 482 00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:57,760 Speaker 1: seems perfectly normal. Trump is bad, find a reason to 483 00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:01,680 Speaker 1: arrest him. That's how they think. So if you watched 484 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 1: Garland carefully this press conference the other day, you may 485 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:07,200 Speaker 1: have noticed that he appeared highly annoyed by the idea 486 00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:10,240 Speaker 1: of having to stoop to explain himself to mere citizens, 487 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:14,240 Speaker 1: But he found a solution. Being a liberal. Merrek Garland's 488 00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 1: first instinct was to seize the role of victim, because 489 00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:20,600 Speaker 1: when you're a victim, you've already won the argument. You 490 00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:23,480 Speaker 1: don't have to explain yourself. You don't have to change 491 00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:28,120 Speaker 1: your behavior. You're, by definition the good guy. The victim 492 00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:32,719 Speaker 1: always is being oppressed means never having to say you're sorry. So, 493 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:35,360 Speaker 1: as Garland explained to the press conference, the FBI was 494 00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 1: in fact the real victim here. Mean, old Fox News 495 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 1: was asking unfair questions and that's just wrong. So the 496 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 1: real problem isn't that America's most powerful law enforcement agency 497 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:50,240 Speaker 1: is dangerously politicized and corrupt. No, the real problem here 498 00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:52,320 Speaker 1: is that people have dared to complain about it, and 499 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:56,440 Speaker 1: they must stop immediately rust their domestic terrorists. As Garland 500 00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:58,560 Speaker 1: put it, with what seemed like genuine outrage, I will 501 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,920 Speaker 1: not stand silently by as the integrity of the FBI 502 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:06,000 Speaker 1: is unfairly attacked. Well, of course, media organizations loved it. 503 00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:08,720 Speaker 1: There's nothing they revere more than a victim. Victims are 504 00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 1: wholly so they immediately took Garland's side. They're being mean 505 00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:17,200 Speaker 1: to the FBI. Stop it, guys, that's not allowed. But 506 00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:19,280 Speaker 1: if you take three steps back and think about it 507 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:22,040 Speaker 1: for a second, Garland's position, which effectively is you're not 508 00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 1: allowed to criticize me. I'm the Attorney General in the 509 00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:27,960 Speaker 1: United States, is pretty weird. In fact, it is an 510 00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:31,520 Speaker 1: inversion of the traditional relationship between the US government and 511 00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 1: the population that supposedly serves. According to Americ Garland, the 512 00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 1: onus is on American citizens to respect the FBI, obey 513 00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:44,480 Speaker 1: it's your duty. But of course that's not true. In 514 00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:47,720 Speaker 1: a democracy. The onus is on the FBI to earn 515 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 1: the respect of Americans. They work for, you, remember, and 516 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:54,720 Speaker 1: lately they have not been doing a very good job, 517 00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:58,480 Speaker 1: and people know that they haven't been the public's confidence 518 00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:00,959 Speaker 1: in the FBI has plummeted by double digits in just 519 00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 1: the last few years, and unfortunately there's a reason for that, 520 00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 1: and it's a huge problem. We need the FBI. You 521 00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:11,640 Speaker 1: can't just defund federal law enforcement. There are a lot 522 00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:13,680 Speaker 1: of federal laws. Most of them are silly. Some of 523 00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:15,560 Speaker 1: them are not silly at all. They're very serious and 524 00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:18,520 Speaker 1: they must be enforced. So we have to have an FBI, 525 00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:20,880 Speaker 1: and it has to be an FBI we can trust, 526 00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:24,920 Speaker 1: and we can't trust it until its behavior merits trust, 527 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:28,440 Speaker 1: until it's honest and to the extent it can be transparent, 528 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:33,520 Speaker 1: consistent in the way it enforces the law. We have 529 00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:36,040 Speaker 1: to have a federal law enforce an agency like that. 530 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:38,320 Speaker 1: We can't just make it go away and hope for 531 00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:42,360 Speaker 1: the best. But we're nowhere near that point because the 532 00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:45,240 Speaker 1: people are supposed to be overseeing the FBI have ignored 533 00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:50,720 Speaker 1: egregious examples of corruption over many years, but they're getting 534 00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 1: very hard to ignore because they're just so obvious now. 535 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:56,240 Speaker 1: And it's not just the right on mar Lago. Consider 536 00:32:56,280 --> 00:32:59,320 Speaker 1: the Gretchen Whitmer kidnapping case. You may remember that story. 537 00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:01,880 Speaker 1: It's from the fall of twenty may even have followed 538 00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:05,240 Speaker 1: a little bit and hurt how it ended. I'll stop 539 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:10,600 Speaker 1: it there because I think what you're hearing perfectly explains 540 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:14,320 Speaker 1: what I said earlier. Right, if you defund the FBI, 541 00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:15,600 Speaker 1: does that mean we want to just get rid of 542 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:18,080 Speaker 1: it forever. No, But there needs to be some accountability, 543 00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:23,520 Speaker 1: There needs to be some trust there. You have to 544 00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:29,720 Speaker 1: have some accountability, you have to have some trust. And 545 00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:32,560 Speaker 1: if you don't have that, then what's the point of 546 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:37,320 Speaker 1: having in this organization. But if these people don't respond 547 00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:43,360 Speaker 1: to basic criticism when they are busted in a corrupt way, 548 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:46,200 Speaker 1: then what else do you have besides the purse strings 549 00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:50,200 Speaker 1: to pull on and Mike Pence being a useful idiot. 550 00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 1: And I know why you did it right. Some campaign 551 00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:56,440 Speaker 1: advisor Pence was like, look, this is a great moment 552 00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:58,920 Speaker 1: for you to distinguish yourself from Donald Trump, become your 553 00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:01,920 Speaker 1: own man, right, So come out and say this, which 554 00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:05,240 Speaker 1: will contradict them. And it was a bad move. It 555 00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:10,239 Speaker 1: was a dumb move. It's a really, really really stupid move. Right. 556 00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:12,360 Speaker 1: You gotta fight fire with fire, and the only fire 557 00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:17,759 Speaker 1: we have is funding. That's it. We have nothing else 558 00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:22,400 Speaker 1: at this point. We have funding. That's it all right.
