Speaker 1: Cool Zone Media.
Speaker 2: This is it could happen here in Executive Disorder, our
Speaker 2: weekly newscast covering what's happening in the White House, the
Speaker 2: crumbling world, and what it means for you. I'm Garrison
Speaker 2: Davis today I'm joined by Sophie Lichtermann, James Stout, and
Speaker 2: Robert Evans. This episode, we're covering the week of February
Speaker 2: fourth to February eleventh. It was the Super Bowl. Wasn't
Speaker 2: that fun? I heard it was streaming on Peacock this year,
Speaker 2: so I boot it up my Peacock account, went to
Speaker 2: the sports section and was surprised at how few Americans
Speaker 2: there were and how many other flags there were. And
Speaker 2: I do not remember this much skating typically at previous
Speaker 2: the previous Super Bowl shows or the ski jumping, But
Speaker 2: I mean I was it was still fun to watch
Speaker 2: people compete.
Speaker 3: Uh huh.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is because I was watching the Winter Olympics.
Speaker 4: Get it I did. I did get a.
Speaker 5: Good work gear, no fun stuff.
Speaker 6: What's your favorite Winter Olympics? And vene Garrison as a Canadian?
Speaker 2: Honestly, the ski jumping is pretty exciting. They really fly. Yeah,
Speaker 2: they do.
Speaker 1: That video of that guy that went viral that did
Speaker 1: like a under six minute mile on skis uphill.
Speaker 2: Yeah, going uphill.
Speaker 4: It's crazy.
Speaker 6: To be clear, he's not going for a mile like,
Speaker 6: he just goes uphill, like the whole course is like
Speaker 6: a mile ash. Well yeah, still cross country ski is
Speaker 6: havingsane Vo two maxes cross country ski when I get
Speaker 6: the chance.
Speaker 7: It's fun.
Speaker 2: They don't go that fast, but no, we do. We
Speaker 2: do need to discuss this. The actual super Bowl halftime
Speaker 2: show actually, well no, not the actual one, the other one. Yeah,
Speaker 2: the All American halftime show.
Speaker 6: Maybe I'll just say the kid who Bad Bunny gave
Speaker 6: his Grammy too was not the same child who you
Speaker 6: saw being abducted by Ice in a little blue bunny hat.
Speaker 4: No, it was.
Speaker 1: It was supposed to symbolize a young Benito him. Yes, yes,
Speaker 1: not anything else.
Speaker 8: It really was not.
Speaker 1: There was a lot of underlying messages in that show
Speaker 1: that were very important.
Speaker 4: But it would be weird.
Speaker 5: It would be weird if he put in a kid
Speaker 5: that looked like the five year old that was abducted
Speaker 5: in prison by Ice to give him a grammy. It
Speaker 5: would have been really off.
Speaker 8: Would not have been a cool move. Yeah, that would
Speaker 8: that would have.
Speaker 1: Been bad just to say it was a great halftime show.
Speaker 1: I enjoyed it thoroughly.
Speaker 2: And now here's a clip of the All American halftime show,
Speaker 2: real halftime show, our favorite kid Rock. Ready, WHOA, somebody
Speaker 2: makes some motherfucking noise in here.
Speaker 8: There's like nobody there.
Speaker 2: This is not this is not from the show. This
Speaker 2: is from Silicon Valley. This was the joke that they
Speaker 2: did on the tea the show Silicon Valley, which looks
Speaker 2: almost exactly like hilarious the Turning Point halftime show.
Speaker 6: I'm about to say I didn't hear that aside from
Speaker 6: the Jewels, I thought that was.
Speaker 8: A new angle.
Speaker 5: They did have more people in the crowd, but they
Speaker 5: were hired actors. But they did have more people in
Speaker 5: the crowd.
Speaker 2: Shockingly lines up.
Speaker 1: Our colleague Molly Hunger described his outfit as needed to
Speaker 1: run out the home depot to pick up us part
Speaker 1: for something.
Speaker 5: He's in like shorts and like a T shirt, has
Speaker 5: a wrist BRACEO.
Speaker 7: It's great.
Speaker 2: We'll get to Kid Rock in a sec, but let's
Speaker 2: start at the beginning. While watching the Turning Point stream,
Speaker 2: there was no indication where the show is being broadcast
Speaker 2: from or whether it was live, but four performers saying
Speaker 2: back to back to back, indicating the show was cut
Speaker 2: together from previously taped performances. Yes, the venue was this dark, narrow,
Speaker 2: rectangular room with high ceilings and studio lights. In the
Speaker 2: middle was a long stage with a small audience on
Speaker 2: either side, maybe torch people tops. But the show was
Speaker 2: introduced by none other than Jack Pisobek, which I will
Speaker 2: show now.
Speaker 9: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Turning Point USA All
Speaker 9: American Halftime Show.
Speaker 10: And this one's for you, Charlie.
Speaker 5: Great stuff.
Speaker 6: So hey, this stuff four hundred and forty six down
Speaker 6: votes on Rumble.
Speaker 7: That's rough.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, and I watched this. I will admit I
Speaker 5: watched it after the actual halftime show because it was
Speaker 5: on YouTube and there was no reason to actually catch
Speaker 5: it during the Super Bowl. And by the way, the
Speaker 5: viewership number suggests that most people who did catch it
Speaker 5: watched it after the Super Bowl. Yes, because it's weird
Speaker 5: to pause or turn off the sound in the middle
Speaker 5: of the Super Bowl and pull up like a laptop
Speaker 5: or something to go watch the fucking Turning Point USA show.
Speaker 11: Yeah.
Speaker 2: No, really cumbersome, really really anti social behavior at the
Speaker 2: Super Bowl party. To turn off the stream, plug in
Speaker 2: your laptop, go to rumble dot com.
Speaker 5: If you are doing that, your kids have not talked
Speaker 5: to you longer than they've been alive, Like they abandoned
Speaker 5: you before they were born.
Speaker 1: Well, President Trump watched the actual Super Bowl halftime show.
Speaker 4: He did, there's photos of him watching it.
Speaker 5: He knows that this is loser shit. Yeah, it's it's
Speaker 5: just about the losers, loser shit that I have ever seen.
Speaker 5: And right after Jack Besovic introduced it, it cuts to this.
Speaker 5: You've got this black stage and there's like an amp
Speaker 5: on the stage and a guy walks up to it
Speaker 5: with a guitar.
Speaker 2: Not a guy, Brandley Gilbert. Okay, some respect.
Speaker 7: That's Bentley.
Speaker 5: Okay, that's that's Brentley. I was going to introduce his
Speaker 5: name afterwards. But Garrison, you miss something important because Brandley
Speaker 5: Gilbert's band is where this guy is from. But the
Speaker 5: all electric guitar performance of the Star Spangled Banner is
Speaker 5: led by the great guitarist Spencer whsdor.
Speaker 2: Wow, where are they finding these guys stage.
Speaker 5: In Brandley Gilbert's band, Garrison, This all sounds like and
Speaker 5: I think.
Speaker 8: You should leave sketch. I'm making up these notes.
Speaker 2: The whole performance was that. I think you should leave sketch,
Speaker 2: but no, it's beautiful. Electric guitar riff of the Star
Speaker 2: Spangled Banner opening.
Speaker 5: No, I I got a clip to play because there's
Speaker 5: a moment here. They had pyrotechnics during the show, like
Speaker 5: the real show had, but they're not good. They were
Speaker 5: better for the kid rock performance. For the electric guitars,
Speaker 5: they're just kind of sad and they make a sad
Speaker 5: little popping stand. Well again, a single man is playing guitar.
Speaker 6: Stay Jimmy Hendricks played the Star Spangled Banner on guitar,
Speaker 6: but he was good at playing guitars.
Speaker 5: But he was one of the best guitar players.
Speaker 11: Yeah.
Speaker 6: Yeah, different, like a high yadd stick that they've chosen
Speaker 6: to make themselves.
Speaker 5: We'll talk about that in a second, but I gotta
Speaker 5: show you guys. You just need to see the pop
Speaker 5: of these pirate technics just for a second, and you
Speaker 5: the listener needs to hear it.
Speaker 6: It's giving village fireworks.
Speaker 2: S Yeah, that's beautiful.
Speaker 4: It's great. I don't know what you're talking about. I
Speaker 4: loved it, per.
Speaker 5: What you were saying earlier. There's a New York Times
Speaker 5: article that the original title it was published under was
Speaker 5: the All American Halftime featured an electric anthem, unlike Kendricks
Speaker 5: Now they changed that title in the Reporter's notebook article
Speaker 5: to what does a whaling electric take on the Star
Speaker 5: Spangled Banner Mean?
Speaker 8: I'm glad that they are getting to.
Speaker 6: The core of the issues the publication that ignored all
Speaker 6: my pitches about me and MO for several years.
Speaker 5: Yeah, no, it's good. This is much more important. Let's
Speaker 5: listen to a quote from this article that I think
Speaker 5: we can all agree it matters much more than a
Speaker 5: war in musical terms. Wdorp's version of the Star Spangled
Speaker 5: Banner was conservative too. Despite the bent notes and feedback,
Speaker 5: it largely stuck to the melody and conveyed a referentive,
Speaker 5: stubborn form of patriotism.
Speaker 4: I don't know if I kind of loved it. What
Speaker 4: do you mean? You know, it's terrible. It's terrible. Hardwatch,
Speaker 4: hard watch.
Speaker 5: That was the best part of it. I hate to
Speaker 5: say it, but unfortunately the pyrotechnics were basically competent for
Speaker 5: the Kid Rock Show, which might have been the only
Speaker 5: competent part of the Kid Rock Show.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I want to hate the Kid Roque show. I haven't.
Speaker 2: I think there's some other hits from this from this show, though,
Speaker 2: including Brentley Gilbert's second song, which starts as a slow
Speaker 2: acoustic ballad and then roughly changes into whatever this is.
Speaker 12: Jim good Man, we can learn how to kiss and
Speaker 12: watch out for those who blude.
Speaker 9: Now a small tan, he says.
Speaker 4: She's said she when you have rumor spread like that,
Speaker 4: I know song and.
Speaker 5: Yallow know man as he's keating, he's trying to rough
Speaker 5: He's trying to rouf who did he is? He is trying?
Speaker 8: He is?
Speaker 2: He is trying small town, he said. She said, I'm
Speaker 2: not going to read into what those lyrics are trying
Speaker 2: to express.
Speaker 4: Slow.
Speaker 2: But that was the second song I do. I want
Speaker 2: to skip to the third act, which is Lee Brice.
Speaker 2: He started his second song by saying, quote, Charlie gave
Speaker 2: people microphones so that they could say what was on
Speaker 2: their mind. This is what's on mine. And this next
Speaker 2: song starts like a parody of a conservative country song.
Speaker 2: Here's here's the beginning.
Speaker 5: I just want to.
Speaker 2: Catch my fish, drive my true, drink my beerd I'm
Speaker 2: not wake up all this stuff.
Speaker 8: I just want to catch my fish.
Speaker 2: I'm just a little teary eyed, honestly, just listening to that.
Speaker 10: Uh.
Speaker 5: The next part is consin the next line.
Speaker 7: Okay, I'm coming at this rule.
Speaker 2: This is the next line of the song. The same
Speaker 2: kind of gun I hunt with just killed another man.
Speaker 2: The only thing mine ever shot? Was it? Deer from
Speaker 2: a deer stand? That's the next slide.
Speaker 5: Are you including that man?
Speaker 4: Miracle genius?
Speaker 2: Why would you do that in a song? And the
Speaker 2: way he sings it is so bizarre, it's.
Speaker 8: It's it's about Charlie Cook.
Speaker 4: I would like to hear it.
Speaker 8: Oh, I'm just realizing what.
Speaker 2: Same kind of gun I'll hunt with? Just cute?
Speaker 8: The only thing I shot?
Speaker 2: Look, what is he doing?
Speaker 4: Why?
Speaker 5: The gun violence problem is bad enough that he has
Speaker 5: to like make a comment about it existing and being depressing.
Speaker 5: He has to do that, But then immediately because the
Speaker 5: next bit after this, the most of the song is
Speaker 5: basically about I don't want to listen to the news, correct, Like,
Speaker 5: I don't want to I don't want to watch things
Speaker 5: that remind me very.
Speaker 2: The very next verse, yeah, I just want to cut
Speaker 2: my grass, feed my dog, wear my boots, not turn
Speaker 2: the TV on and sit and watch the news.
Speaker 7: That's an option for you, like, you can do that.
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, that's very doable, friend, that's entirely
Speaker 1: doable for you folks.
Speaker 4: You could do that.
Speaker 2: And I'm sure he is. But this is what he's
Speaker 2: scared of hearing on the news to the little boys,
Speaker 2: little girl.
Speaker 9: Yeah, it is this Candles.
Speaker 2: Of the Creek and this cancel you're world.
Speaker 8: But then he said it, he put it in a.
Speaker 4: Sum Oh my god, I almost choked.
Speaker 10: Wow.
Speaker 5: Yeah again, man, you're you're being paid to sing about this.
Speaker 2: It's amazing.
Speaker 6: In fact, it's your job because it's it's you know,
Speaker 6: they have few musical abilities.
Speaker 5: It's your it's your presumably well paid job.
Speaker 2: The whole repeated refrain of the song is it's not
Speaker 2: so easy being country in this country nowadays, that you
Speaker 2: guys are in charge. Entire song.
Speaker 4: Question, question, who is at this event? How many people?
Speaker 2: Where is it? About two hundred paid attendees in Atlanta,
Speaker 2: Georgia at a sound stage.
Speaker 4: Paid attendees, paid attendees. Commercial Yeah, okay.
Speaker 6: A lot of like fresh stetsons and like unbroken in
Speaker 6: boots in the audience.
Speaker 2: Maybe so many cowboy hats in the audience. You don't understand.
Speaker 7: It's like a bar in Jackson, Wyoming.
Speaker 2: I get the vibe, so many of them, and you're like,
Speaker 2: you're in Atlanta. Not many people wear cowboy hats Atlanta.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry that's it's not like because it's for Oklahoma.
Speaker 8: Yeah, no, I love.
Speaker 6: I love to see someone in a freshly purchase setting.
Speaker 2: The next song, after this, after this country one, well,
Speaker 2: they're all country songs. Like the next song is what
Speaker 2: I think is a love song that that goes quote
Speaker 2: Sometimes I drink too much. Sometimes I test your trust.
Speaker 2: Sometimes I don't know why you stayed with me. I'm
Speaker 2: hard to love, which, yeah, sounds related to the last
Speaker 2: song you were singing. Maybe a little bit about about
Speaker 2: bullying your children. Wow, sick oh man. But finally, finally
Speaker 2: the main act, right, Well, what we've all been waiting for,
Speaker 2: kid kid rock. I'm gonna play a little over a
Speaker 2: minute for us. We're not gonna include all of this
Speaker 2: in the episode. We're just gonna we're just gonna include
Speaker 2: the I Am a kid section. But I do need
Speaker 2: to show show this all to James.
Speaker 7: Yeah, this is fun.
Speaker 6: I think a lot about like that's that Steve Goodman
Speaker 6: parody country song that you couldn't write today because it's
Speaker 6: better musically and less ridiculous than the actual country songs
Speaker 6: that we're hearing.
Speaker 2: All right, James, are you ready?
Speaker 7: Always I've never.
Speaker 8: Seen it before.
Speaker 5: That's enough. That's more than enough.
Speaker 2: There's a lot to talk about.
Speaker 8: Yeah, we got to unpack some of this.
Speaker 4: He was better at the r n C.
Speaker 2: He's flipping that. He's flipping that mic NonStop. He loves
Speaker 2: that move.
Speaker 4: But his name is.
Speaker 7: But that's how we got the wrist injury.
Speaker 5: I will say the first guys to play had a
Speaker 5: mic with a pair of brass knuckles built into it,
Speaker 5: which I did like, I think we do need a
Speaker 5: version of that. That's a full knuckle duster from World
Speaker 5: War One, so it's got the trench knife on the
Speaker 5: other side.
Speaker 8: Perfect.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, at least take a risk.
Speaker 7: Don't be a cow every time you fit them on.
Speaker 5: Take a risk, Britt, be a man.
Speaker 2: As the kid rock lights turn on, he explosively jumps
Speaker 2: onto the stage. White fur coat, acid washed jeans, black fedora. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I used to be a piece of ship.
Speaker 6: It's jeans, garrison. These are jawks. They cut they are
Speaker 6: cut off a bunch.
Speaker 4: Jorts and second correction, it was a white fur coat.
Speaker 2: Vest code vest.
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's a vest.
Speaker 5: And I should note also that his fedora did not
Speaker 5: have the Safari flaps. I repeat, it did not have
Speaker 5: the Safari flaps.
Speaker 6: But it's leather, like a shiny black leather, not a
Speaker 6: breathable hat.
Speaker 2: It's it's beautiful. It's beautiful to see. It is, really,
Speaker 2: it really is, And I think you should leave sketch
Speaker 2: come to life. It's she just she just jumps around,
Speaker 2: slipping that mic.
Speaker 4: How long does he perform? How many songs do we get?
Speaker 2: He gets like songs?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 8: None.
Speaker 2: None of the audio for the song matches what we're seeing.
Speaker 2: The sinking is totally off, leading a lot of people
Speaker 2: to suspect that that it was it was lip synced
Speaker 2: on stage poorly. We'll get to that in a second.
Speaker 2: But the next song began with a two minute prelude
Speaker 2: featuring the cello and violin.
Speaker 6: Which is it one of those like it's just the
Speaker 6: frame of a cello.
Speaker 2: Oh, James, you'll see I'm.
Speaker 6: Going to see a fucking offense to god, that's a
Speaker 6: real cello.
Speaker 7: Wow. Oh yeah, that's an interesting outfit.
Speaker 5: Cells dressed kind of like Ben dressed like that.
Speaker 6: Yeah, one of the three Musketeers is playing cello.
Speaker 7: For those of you listening, get home.
Speaker 2: Wait, please welcome our brother.
Speaker 7: Robert Richie.
Speaker 2: Robert Richard Ritchie is Kid Rocks. That his real government name.
Speaker 2: They reintroduce him under his legal name for the second song.
Speaker 5: Kid Rocks Are Not Born.
Speaker 6: There may those people who introduced him.
Speaker 2: What was that?
Speaker 7: That was it for them?
Speaker 2: Unclear? Okay, they only existed on screen to introduce kid
Speaker 2: Rock as kid Rock the first time, and then as
Speaker 2: rich Russell, Richie Russell whatever is Robert Richie, Robert Richie,
Speaker 2: whatever his real name is. That's the only time they
Speaker 2: appeared was to introduce kid Rock both times. Now, after
Speaker 2: the show, it was revealed this whole thing was pretaped
Speaker 2: on a sound stage Atlanta, and a few days later
Speaker 2: Kid Rock released a video addressing the rumors that his
Speaker 2: performance was lip SYNCD, which he denies.
Speaker 3: You know, we taped it and then they sent me
Speaker 3: a first cut, and my comment was, the sink is off.
Speaker 3: They were trying to line up. First off, if we
Speaker 3: would have done it, if we would have recorded it,
Speaker 3: and then and then played like we were singing it.
Speaker 3: Lip synced it.
Speaker 4: It would have been Pie. It would have been Pie.
Speaker 3: The lineup it was very difficult for them because somebody
Speaker 3: clearly wasn't super familiar with the song. Also, when I
Speaker 3: asked him, I go, you know, Freddy raps that song
Speaker 3: with me and my DJ, and they're like he does what?
Speaker 3: I'm like, oh no, I'm like, yeah, do we have
Speaker 3: any cutaways of Freddy? And and they know they didn't know.
Speaker 3: He wasn't No, he didn't even TV. Sorry, So they
Speaker 3: don't have time now it's extremely difficult for them to
Speaker 3: line up the sink could have been done. If we
Speaker 3: had more time of confident they could have got it.
Speaker 1: Let's pour one out for Freddy DJ.
Speaker 4: No screen time.
Speaker 2: So mister Rock said that Turning Play was having trouble
Speaker 2: lining up the audio with the visuals in part because
Speaker 2: the song is actually performed vocally by two people going
Speaker 2: back and forth. Wow and Turning Point did not have
Speaker 2: a camera on the other vocalists. So that's why it
Speaker 2: looks weird when there's obviously vocals being heard, but mister
Speaker 2: Rock isn't singing.
Speaker 5: And again, the reason why no one at Turning Point
Speaker 5: is familiar with Kid Rocks music is that even they
Speaker 5: don't like Kid Rocks music.
Speaker 2: And mister Rock demonstrated how this is, you know, supposed
Speaker 2: to go in this video with with his DJ which
Speaker 2: should we do need to see thirty seconds up?
Speaker 3: Thank you?
Speaker 5: Oh thanks, scare I love you so much. No, I'm sorry, Sophie.
Speaker 5: We didn't have a conversation about this. This is in
Speaker 5: violation of several rules the company has set.
Speaker 6: I just want to call out the fact that there
Speaker 6: is a pike behind them. Do you mean the fish
Speaker 6: that has been tracks to Germid Yeah, not what you
Speaker 6: normally expect.
Speaker 5: I would have expected the other kind of pike behind Garrett.
Speaker 2: No, that seems like mister Rock's abode. Actually, this feels
Speaker 2: very on brand for him.
Speaker 5: Is that a drone?
Speaker 2: No, that's that's a it's a deer antler turned into
Speaker 2: a candlestick.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it looks like a yeah, turned into a candlestick.
Speaker 8: Classy.
Speaker 7: Okay, maybe ask you although.
Speaker 5: From a distance it does kind of look like a
Speaker 5: bad three D printing of Deep Space nine.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Tricken Mountain, Holly Wood, it's the world missed, so understood.
Speaker 4: It's all good.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's all in fun.
Speaker 6: Oh damn, man, I'm not having a physical reaction. I've
Speaker 6: cringed with every muscle in my body.
Speaker 2: Here's how you explained how it's supposed to go.
Speaker 3: So he's filling those words for me so I can
Speaker 3: boom bang my head, keep going and carrying on. Now,
Speaker 3: when I'm doing that, you see me. I'm on over
Speaker 3: the stage. Who I'm flipping the mic? I'm down here,
Speaker 3: I'm over here, back boom. I know these guys are
Speaker 3: a difficult time getting that sync together. So I have
Speaker 3: nothing but good things to say, not only about Turning Point,
Speaker 3: but the production team that they work with on this
Speaker 3: and other events.
Speaker 1: My favorite part about live music is when you post
Speaker 1: a over four minutes clip video explaining.
Speaker 2: How fifty second video about how it.
Speaker 1: Was supposed to go and explaining to people things that
Speaker 1: don't actually exist.
Speaker 2: No, his whole delivery sounds like good Tim Robinson bit.
Speaker 2: It's it's it's so beautiful, incredible. The Bad Bunny halftime
Speaker 2: Show averaged one hundred and thirty five point four million
Speaker 2: viewers during the show's time slot, and ath Music claims
Speaker 2: it's now the most watched show in Super Bowl history.
Speaker 2: Me And while tpusa's show attracted upwards of six point
Speaker 2: one million concurrent live viewers on Turning Point Ussay's YouTube channel.
Speaker 2: Due to licensing restrictions, Turning Point was unable to stream
Speaker 2: the show on xally Everything app as they originally planned.
Speaker 1: Which got announced like an hour before, right before.
Speaker 6: But that's probably why they didn't hit one hundred and
Speaker 6: thirty five million, because one hundred and twenty nine of
Speaker 6: them were waiting.
Speaker 2: Otherwise they would have got it.
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: The All American Halftime Show now boasts twenty three million
Speaker 2: views on their YouTube and Rumble pages combined. The Bad
Speaker 2: Bunny Show is seventy million. A lot of these views
Speaker 2: are also people like me and other other researchers, yeah
Speaker 2: for sure, and curious Americans who are who are interested
Speaker 2: in what they had to throw together. But a footage
Speaker 2: from inside Trump's Super Bowl party shows that even he
Speaker 2: did not turn into the All American Halftime Show. Mimo comfio,
Speaker 2: Now it's time for you to tune into these apps.
Speaker 2: Shall we do the real news now?
Speaker 7: Sure?
Speaker 2: So.
Speaker 5: On Monday, February ninth, twenty twenty six, about three days
Speaker 5: before we recorded this, there was a student led walkout
Speaker 5: protesting federal immigration arrests and protesting in large part last
Speaker 5: year's massive ice actions in Chicago, and students from a
Speaker 5: number of different high schools walked out. This included students
Speaker 5: from East Aurora High School, where there was a notable clash.
Speaker 5: Is the word or skirmish is the word?
Speaker 2: Like?
Speaker 5: Skirmish is what Shaw Local news described it as between
Speaker 5: protesters and police. There's video, and at least from the
Speaker 5: limited clip of video we have, I wouldn't call it
Speaker 5: a skirmish. I would call it police getting pissed and
Speaker 5: assaulting some kids. But we don't see the rest of
Speaker 5: the interaction. This is apparently something that went on for
Speaker 5: a couple of hours, so I don't know like what
Speaker 5: led up to this. I can tell you the video
Speaker 5: shows what looks like some high school kids walking in
Speaker 5: kind of a line outside of their high school. There's
Speaker 5: some police by. The police are clearly talking to or
Speaker 5: maybe yelling at one of the kids, and then as
Speaker 5: the video comes in, an officer just charges in and
Speaker 5: tackles hard like a running tackle, a teenage boy, like
Speaker 5: a child smaller than him, which leads to several other
Speaker 5: police officers grabbing kids. At least one student punches a
Speaker 5: police officer in the head while the officer is on
Speaker 5: top of his friend beating his friend. The police only
Speaker 5: responded by saying, like, look, you know, we had to act.
Speaker 5: A student punched a police officer. From the Sha local article,
Speaker 5: the police department said the officer who was punched was
Speaker 5: transported to a local hospital for medical attention or his injuries.
Speaker 5: They don't show he and his colleagues like literally tackling
Speaker 5: kids first, Yeah, before they get hit. If somebody tackles
Speaker 5: my friends next to me, I might start punching. That's
Speaker 5: just life. Yeah, and it's this is kind of an
Speaker 5: ongoing story at the moment. I don't know like what's
Speaker 5: going to wind up being the result of this, but
Speaker 5: it inspired, at least initially a lot of anger, and
Speaker 5: there have been further protests as a result of the
Speaker 5: police violence. Students in the area are now demanding the
Speaker 5: resignation of the police chief in East Aurora. The police
Speaker 5: have not really like acknowledged those demands yet. I don't
Speaker 5: know if this is going to turn into like a
Speaker 5: larger protest movement. There's some signs that maybe it will,
Speaker 5: that there may be further walkouts specifically as a result
Speaker 5: of the police violence. But this is a situation. We
Speaker 5: will be watching, obviously seeing police violently beating kids for
Speaker 5: you know, speaking for doing the thing they should be
Speaker 5: doing at high school, which is experimenting with believing that
Speaker 5: and taking stands. So we'll be watching this to see
Speaker 5: kind of what results next. But that's sort of where
Speaker 5: we are at the moment.
Speaker 6: Yeah, that video, it was pretty brutal. Let's talk a
Speaker 6: little bit more about some immigration stuff. Let's start with
Speaker 6: Let's start with police in shall we? I have reviewed
Speaker 6: the police report for the ice officer who in late
Speaker 6: January negligently discharged his issued handgun in a hotel room.
Speaker 6: Bradley's shaver was attempting to fix a backstrap from his glock.
Speaker 6: I'll quote the report here, quote with his back facing
Speaker 6: Room three twenty, and the firearm pointed in the area
Speaker 6: of Bradley's torso he attempted to remove the backstrap that
Speaker 6: was currently on the firearm while it was still loaded.
Speaker 6: At some point, the firearm discharged. Luckily, the occupant of
Speaker 6: that room had just checked into the hotel and was
Speaker 6: walking to their room when the shot was fired, so
Speaker 6: there was no one injured. I will quote again from
Speaker 6: the report. Initially, the agent thought the gunshot from somewhere else,
Speaker 6: and he yelled shots fired, and then told his wife
Speaker 6: he had to go and hang up shape and then
Speaker 6: felt heat on the left side of his body, looked
Speaker 6: down and saw the damage to his shirt and realized
Speaker 6: the shot had come from his own weapon. He said
Speaker 6: the round went through his sweatshirt and the shirt underneath,
Speaker 6: but did not penetrate his underamic compression layer or injure
Speaker 6: him that it seems like this person was attempting to
Speaker 6: repair or remove apart from his gun that was still loaded,
Speaker 6: and he didn't think to unload the gun.
Speaker 5: All of this is stuff you shouldn't do, right. Yeah,
Speaker 5: you have to check before you do stuff to a
Speaker 5: gun to make sure it's unloaded. And even when you've
Speaker 5: checked to make sure it's unloaded, you should still act
Speaker 5: like it's loaded and do stuff like that. Have your
Speaker 5: finger on the trigger and make sure it's clear of
Speaker 5: a holster so that there's nothing that especially like a
Speaker 5: leather holster or maybe stuff could get bowed in and
Speaker 5: pull the trigger. You just don't do any of the
Speaker 5: things he was doing with a gun, especially if you're
Speaker 5: a cap. But also you do all the things he
Speaker 5: did with the gun if you're a cap because this
Speaker 5: happens regularly.
Speaker 6: Yeah, this case a thirty year veteran who had just
Speaker 6: returned after two years of retirement. I want to talk
Speaker 6: a little bit now about Liam Cornejo Ramos. This is
Speaker 6: the five year old who has detained in Minneapolis last month.
Speaker 6: People will remember seeing images of him and like a
Speaker 6: blue bunny hat.
Speaker 7: Liam and his father were.
Speaker 6: Detained on the twentieth of January in his driveway after
Speaker 6: returning from school. They were order released by Judge Fred Berry,
Speaker 6: who wrote in his order quote, observing human behavior confirms
Speaker 6: that for some among us, the perfidious lusts for unbridled
Speaker 6: power and the imposition of cruelty in its quest no
Speaker 6: no bounds, and are bereft of human decency and the
Speaker 6: rule of law be damned. You could tell the judge
Speaker 6: was incredibly pissed off for the government. Now put it
Speaker 6: that way. DHS then attempted to expedite the removal of
Speaker 6: Cornejo Ramos and his family, but the family were granted
Speaker 6: a continuance by his judge.
Speaker 7: Liam and his.
Speaker 6: Father his father is Adlian and Cornehill adis or Adiyas.
Speaker 6: I've seen like various permutations of his father's name. I
Speaker 6: think perhaps because some people doing reporting are not familiar
Speaker 6: with how last names it generally can figured in the
Speaker 6: Spanish speaking world, so I'm not quite sure how his
Speaker 6: last name is pronounced. But Liam and his father entered
Speaker 6: in December of twenty twenty four when they were detained,
Speaker 6: they were detained at Dilly. Dilly is a detention center
Speaker 6: for families, right. It is a place that I have
Speaker 6: reported on before. In my Darian follow up series, I
Speaker 6: spoke about Primrose and Kimberly, who were both detained at Dilly,
Speaker 6: and they went into some detail about the conditions there.
Speaker 6: I'm glad to see that Dilly is getting more attention
Speaker 6: in sort of bigger, more legacy media outlets.
Speaker 13: Now.
Speaker 6: I also saw that there was a protest at Dilly,
Speaker 6: seemingly while Liam was there. And we can see this
Speaker 6: because a drone footage of people walking out of the
Speaker 6: buildings and assembling in spaces in between the buildings, and
Speaker 6: they can be heard chanting in some of that footage. Now,
Speaker 6: when I move on to something I've seen DHS doing recently,
Speaker 6: which is they're trying to push back against the evidence
Speaker 6: that they are using schools and children as bait to
Speaker 6: detain non citizens.
Speaker 7: Right. I just spoke about how Liam was detained. Right.
Speaker 6: It was the fact that he was at school that
Speaker 6: allowed those agents to target his father.
Speaker 8: Right.
Speaker 7: I believe they got Liam to knock on the door.
Speaker 6: And his dad came out, which obviously was part of
Speaker 6: the reason that this particular intens was so controversial. DHS,
Speaker 6: in a post on x said, quote, ICE is not
Speaker 6: going to schools to arrest children. A dangerous illegal alien
Speaker 6: felon fleeing into a school, or a child sex offender
Speaker 6: working as an employee may create a situation where an
Speaker 6: arrest is made. To protect public safety, criminals are no
Speaker 6: longer able to hide in America's schools to avoid arrest.
Speaker 6: Potus Trump and Secretary Known trust a brave law enforcement
Speaker 6: to use common sense. We will not tie the hands
Speaker 6: of law enforcement officers. They must be allowed to protect
Speaker 6: children from public safety threats. Obviously, if someone is a
Speaker 6: sex offender, they can't work at a school.
Speaker 8: Right.
Speaker 6: That's that's the top background checks work. The DHS tweet
Speaker 6: includes a screenshot of a Houston Chronicle article which details
Speaker 6: how HISD has lost four thousand students due to the
Speaker 6: ICE crackdown right. This is students who are for the
Speaker 6: most part afraid to come to school, and they've seen
Speaker 6: a twenty two percent decline in migrant student enrollment. Obviously,
Speaker 6: I just want to note that ICE has detained parents
Speaker 6: outside schools, and a notable incident last year they dissained
Speaker 6: a fifteen year old disabled boy in Los Angeles. Finally,
Speaker 6: from me, I want to talk about some legislation that
Speaker 6: is being proposed in the state of Washington. The State
Speaker 6: of Washington's House builds two three two one propose a
Speaker 6: legislation that focuses on what it calls blocking features that
Speaker 6: must be integrated into three D printers to prevent their
Speaker 6: use in creating firearms. Blocking features are quoting here a
Speaker 6: software controls process that deploys a firearms blueprint detection algorithm
Speaker 6: such that those features identify and reject print requests for
Speaker 6: firearms or a legal firearm paths with a high degree
Speaker 6: of reliability and cannot be overridden or otherwise defeated by
Speaker 6: a user with significant technical skill. What this would effectively
Speaker 6: do is either prevent the sale of three D printers
Speaker 6: in Washington's state, or install state level spyware onto three
Speaker 6: D printers, which would obviously be able to be used
Speaker 6: for things far beyond firearms, and people have notably been
Speaker 6: three D printing. Whistle also a great deal in Minneapolis
Speaker 6: right there. So there's been lots of coverage of this.
Speaker 6: I think it would be very naive for people to
Speaker 6: think that this would start and end with the creation
Speaker 6: of unregistered firearms.
Speaker 5: Yeah, now they'll they'll go, I mean, they'll doff like
Speaker 5: Trey to enforce games workshops, copy rights and stop it,
Speaker 5: reprint models or whatever.
Speaker 6: Exactly right, Like, it opens a whole world of IP
Speaker 6: enforcement in three D printing, and it more or less ends.
Speaker 6: The thing that I find beautiful about three D printing
Speaker 6: is not that like I can make little plastic things
Speaker 6: in my office. It's that it shows me that people
Speaker 6: will choose to create beautiful and innovative things even when
Speaker 6: there was not a profit incentive for doing so.
Speaker 5: Yes, And here's the thing, it would be a different
Speaker 5: discussion if this were a country. We're the only way
Speaker 5: to get a gun was to three D print it.
Speaker 5: But it's not.
Speaker 6: Yes, in Washington State, right, you do not have to
Speaker 6: drive that far from Washington State to a state where
Speaker 6: it would be perfectly legal to do a private party
Speaker 6: transfer in the Walmart parking lot.
Speaker 8: Yep.
Speaker 5: And also there's just a lot of guns in Washington,
Speaker 5: like there are in Oregon, like there is everywhere in
Speaker 5: the country. And to the extent that three D printed
Speaker 5: firearms are used for crime, they tend to be used
Speaker 5: like specifically in gang crime, where if the three D
Speaker 5: printed gun isn't available, the professional criminals will access a
Speaker 5: separate gun. Americans are not overwhelmingly using three D printed
Speaker 5: firearms to shoot up schools. They're using perfectly normally purchased
Speaker 5: firearms to shoot up schools.
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's what we do because this country is full
Speaker 6: of guns. The state of California is also pursuing a
Speaker 6: case against three D printed firearms code hosting websites. California
Speaker 6: passing extremely broad law last year. It prohibits the hosting, distribution,
Speaker 6: and promotion of the quote unlawful manufacturer of firearms. This
Speaker 6: has significant repercussions for the First Amendment. Right, Like, the
Speaker 6: code itself is not a tangible thing gun, it is speech,
Speaker 6: but in this case it has the instructions allowed the.
Speaker 7: Machine to create gun. Right.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it appears that there are over one hundred other
Speaker 6: people indicted in this case. I'm guessing that those are
Speaker 6: probably the designers who posted their STLs for firearms on
Speaker 6: the gatalogue.
Speaker 5: I think that the evidence also suggests that's unlikely to
Speaker 5: hold up in court. Yeah, because like right now, there's
Speaker 5: a case over the Kansas laws that are mandating like
Speaker 5: you have age basically restrictions on websites and the like,
Speaker 5: and there were laws. There was a lawsuit from like
Speaker 5: a mom who alleged that despite this, her kid was
Speaker 5: able to access a website that was located out of
Speaker 5: the state because it didn't have any of these restrictions,
Speaker 5: and the judge in Kansas ruled like, well, our law
Speaker 5: doesn't restrict people in other states. They don't have to
Speaker 5: have like like that's you can't actually enforce this. Yeah,
Speaker 5: so we'll see how it goes in California.
Speaker 6: But yeah, California is suing for damages in this case.
Speaker 6: It's a civil case middle one, sure, but still, I mean,
Speaker 6: there have been a lot of cases about three D
Speaker 6: printed guns and how they are covered under the under
Speaker 6: the First Amendment. So yeah, I'm going to keep an
Speaker 6: eye on this because I guess like the air attacks
Speaker 6: on the First Amendment from just about every angle right now,
Speaker 6: and I think we should pay attention to that. That
Speaker 6: is all I have. Shall we take a little break
Speaker 6: and then talk about pedophiles?
Speaker 2: Sure?
Speaker 5: I love talking talking about betophiles.
Speaker 7: That's what we do.
Speaker 8: I don't.
Speaker 2: We're back.
Speaker 5: This is another yet another episode of the Pedo Files.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4: I volunteered to do this section.
Speaker 1: These are Epsteine updates as a two day which is Wednesday, Yeah,
Speaker 1: February eleventh.
Speaker 4: There were quite a few things.
Speaker 5: We just finished her recording a four part on him
Speaker 5: for Bastards, and there's more new shit.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 5: It just keeps kevin.
Speaker 4: It is endless, it really is.
Speaker 1: I want to start off which at the top of
Speaker 1: the week, Gleane Maxwell was supposed to speak to the
Speaker 1: House Oversight Committee and she was called in for questioning
Speaker 1: and during a video call. Just so folks know, she
Speaker 1: is serving a twenty year sentence for sex trafficking and
Speaker 1: a federal prison camp in Texas, but she invoked her
Speaker 1: Fifth Amendment right to avoid answering questions that would be
Speaker 1: self incriminating.
Speaker 4: This was expected, but her lawyer's statement was interesting.
Speaker 1: So I'm going to read it to the audience now.
Speaker 1: Members of the Committee on my advice, Glenne Maxwell respectfully
Speaker 1: invoke her Fifth Amendment right to silence and declined to
Speaker 1: answer your questions day, even though she would very much
Speaker 1: like to answer your questions. She must remain silent because
Speaker 1: Miss Maxwell has a habeas petition clearly pending that demonstrates
Speaker 1: that her conviction rests on a fundamentally unfair trial. For example,
Speaker 1: jurors lie during Voidier to secure seats on the jury,
Speaker 1: and the government promised immunity and then broke that promise.
Speaker 1: Newly Disco's documents now demonstrate these facts conclusively. If this
Speaker 1: committee in the American public truly want to hear the
Speaker 1: unfiltered truth about what happened, there is a straightforward path.
Speaker 1: Miss Maxwell is prepared to speak fully and honestly if
Speaker 1: granted clemency by President Trump. Sure only she can provide
Speaker 1: the complete account. Some may not like what they hear,
Speaker 1: but the truth matters. For example, both President Trump and
Speaker 1: President Clinton are innocent of any wrongdoing. Miss Maxwell alone
Speaker 1: can explain why, and the public is entitled to that explanation.
Speaker 4: Thank you.
Speaker 5: Look, I'll talk to Donald Trump if I can get
Speaker 5: immunity for some thanks.
Speaker 4: It's like, by the way, would love to speak community.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the guy that could grant me clemency. I can
Speaker 1: vouch for that guy.
Speaker 5: That's the most doesn't commit crimes thing a person could
Speaker 5: possibly say.
Speaker 4: Wild.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm moving on to another guy that was all
Speaker 1: over the Epstein files, Casey Wasserman.
Speaker 5: Casey wass Robert just said that, like you knew the guy.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, I know. That's what I always call them.
Speaker 4: Wasserman.
Speaker 1: He's the founder and CEO of Wasserman, which is a
Speaker 1: talent agency slash sports marketing agency. And the reason I'm
Speaker 1: bringing this up is for two reasons. There's two things
Speaker 1: I want to discuss here. The first one is that
Speaker 1: since this got announced, he's had major clients, major stars
Speaker 1: as well as athletes, say that's gross and I'm not
Speaker 1: going to work with you anymore.
Speaker 4: And I've left the agency, which is fucking cool.
Speaker 8: Which is good.
Speaker 5: It's what you should do if you find out that
Speaker 5: you are working for someone in the Epstein files.
Speaker 2: Yeah, somebody specifically communicating consistently with Epstein after his conviction. Right,
Speaker 2: there's a lot of people who are named in the files.
Speaker 5: A lot of random journalists whose articles got shared in
Speaker 5: the files or something that yes, yes, yeah, big.
Speaker 4: Name stars here. We're talking like Chapel.
Speaker 2: Row, Chapel Rone.
Speaker 4: You're so annoyed.
Speaker 1: So like chapel Roone was probably the first big name
Speaker 1: to be like ew, I'm out.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 1: And another big part of this is Casey Wasserman is
Speaker 1: leading the preparations for the twenty twenty eight Summer Olympic
Speaker 1: Games that are going to be located in Los Angeles
Speaker 1: and per Fox LA, the LA twenty twenty eight board
Speaker 1: officially supported chair Casey Wasserman and wednesday, projecting calls for
Speaker 1: his recognation following an independent misconduct review. While multiple LA
Speaker 1: elected officials demanded he step down, the board sited his
Speaker 1: strong leadership and cooperations as reasons for his retention.
Speaker 2: Ew I can't believe the good name of the Olympics
Speaker 2: finally has a state on its right now? Right?
Speaker 7: Who would have thought?
Speaker 5: Can you imagine the Olympics being associated with a bad man?
Speaker 2: I loves the Olympic? This sucks. How will I watch trampoline?
Speaker 11: Uh?
Speaker 8: Huh?
Speaker 5: What about luge?
Speaker 8: Wait?
Speaker 7: Now that's on the thing right now, that that's already happening. Yeah,
Speaker 7: you can watch loush.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you're right, you're right. The one good sport. The
Speaker 5: Olympics is already happening, so we're fine.
Speaker 6: Well, we have to be clear on this luge has
Speaker 6: us no links to the Jeffrey Epstein files that we know.
Speaker 2: Of the Italian Louge Olympics, completely clean, no problems.
Speaker 4: Yeah, now I want to move on.
Speaker 1: So probably the biggest story of the week, which is
Speaker 1: UH Attorney General Pambondi took heated questions from lawmakers and
Speaker 1: compatitive congressional hearing over the Justice Department's handling and the
Speaker 1: files related to Jeffrey Epstein that exposed sensitive private information
Speaker 1: about victims despite redaction efforts.
Speaker 4: Her the a key.
Speaker 2: She she frame mogged everyone at this hearing.
Speaker 1: In my opinion, this was the most outrageously unprofessional, shameful, censurable,
Speaker 1: and sickening congressional hearing in history. And she is a
Speaker 1: disgrace and disgusting And yeah, I want to get into
Speaker 1: a little bit of it. I want to start by
Speaker 1: playing a clip from Representative Raskin. He's the Democratic congressman
Speaker 1: from Maryland and he is the Democratic ranking House member
Speaker 1: of the Committee on the Judiciary.
Speaker 9: You're running a massive Epstein cover up right out of
Speaker 9: the Department of Justice. You've been ordered by subpoena and
Speaker 9: by Congress to turn over six million documents, photographs, and
Speaker 9: videos in EPSTEIN files, but you've turned over only three million.
Speaker 9: You say you're not turning over the other three million
Speaker 9: because they're somehow duplicative.
Speaker 7: But we know that there are.
Speaker 9: Actual memos of victim statements in the air. And you
Speaker 9: also took down the Department of Justices prosecution memo from
Speaker 9: twenty nineteen, so it's clearly not all duplicative. But even
Speaker 9: if it were, why not release it? Just release all
Speaker 9: the duplicative stuff. In the half you did reduce, you
Speaker 9: redacted the names of abusers, enablers, accomplices, and co conspirators,
Speaker 9: apparently to spare them embarrassment and disgrace, which is the
Speaker 9: exact opposite of.
Speaker 2: What the law ordered you to do.
Speaker 9: Even worse, you shockingly failed to redact many of the
Speaker 9: victim's names, which is what you were ordered to do
Speaker 9: by Congress. Some of the victims had come forward publicly,
Speaker 9: but many had not. Many had kept their torment private,
Speaker 9: even from family and friends. But you published their names,
Speaker 9: their identities, their images on thousands of pages for.
Speaker 2: The world to see.
Speaker 12: So you ignored the law, and even with over one
Speaker 12: hundred thousand employees at your disposal, you acted with some
Speaker 12: mixture of staggering incompetence, cold indifference, and jaded cruelty towards.
Speaker 9: More than one thousand victims raped, abused, and trafficked. This
Speaker 9: performance screams cover up.
Speaker 1: I can't even begin to describe how vile and disgusting
Speaker 1: it is that they have doxed these survivors of Epstein
Speaker 1: without their consent. It is traumatizing enough that they had
Speaker 1: to endure this. Now they've had what happened to them
Speaker 1: put on display, and now they are going to be targeted.
Speaker 1: And they have not had the ability to speak up
Speaker 1: if they wanted to on what happened. But the government,
Speaker 1: despite being told to not out these survivors, did it,
Speaker 1: but covered the names of the people that committed these crimes.
Speaker 1: It is unspeakably disgusting.
Speaker 5: Sorry, well, I feel great.
Speaker 4: It's really upsetting.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's really deeply.
Speaker 4: Disgusting and upsetting.
Speaker 1: I thought Ranking Member Raskin spoke very clearly here and
Speaker 1: I appreciated his statement. Yeah, moving on, Bondi's tactics during
Speaker 1: this were to deflect, deflect, deflect, there's a couple instances
Speaker 1: that I want to play play for everyone.
Speaker 6: Now, yeah, you could assign this to a class, and
Speaker 6: like if you're talking about every way that like the
Speaker 6: modern Republican Party tries to deflect culpability for anything negative,
Speaker 6: Like they all got deployed one after the other in.
Speaker 1: This So there were Epstein survivors in person, and BONDI
Speaker 1: won'n't even look at them. I want to play a
Speaker 1: clip from when she's asked to address them here.
Speaker 14: To the survivors in the room, if you were willing,
Speaker 14: please stand, and if you are willing, please raise your hands.
Speaker 14: If you have still not been able to meet with
Speaker 14: this Department of Justice, please know for the record that
Speaker 14: every single survivor has raised their hand. Attorney General BONDI,
Speaker 14: you apologize to the survivors and your opening statement for
Speaker 14: what they went through at the hands of Jeffrey Epstein.
Speaker 14: Will you turn to them now and apologize for what
Speaker 14: your Department of Justice has put them through with the
Speaker 14: un absolutely unacceptable release of the Epstein files and their information.
Speaker 15: Congresswoman, you set before.
Speaker 11: Merritt Garland sat in this chair twice.
Speaker 14: Attorney General fund, I'm going to finish my answer. No,
Speaker 14: I'm going to reclaim my time because I asked you
Speaker 14: the Attorney general question, and I would like question to answer,
Speaker 14: which is, will you turn to the survivors. This is
Speaker 14: not about anybody that came before you. It is about
Speaker 14: you taking responsibility for your Department of Justice and the
Speaker 14: harm that it has done to the survivors who are
Speaker 14: standing right behind you and are waiting for you to
Speaker 14: turn to them and apologize for what your Department of justices.
Speaker 8: Members.
Speaker 2: Members get to ask the questions.
Speaker 7: The witness get to answer in the way they want
Speaker 7: to answer.
Speaker 14: The Attorney General that's not accurate, mister chairman, because she
Speaker 14: doesn't like the answer. So, mister Chairman, I have asked,
Speaker 14: she asked merk Garland. This reclaimed I will time.
Speaker 11: Getting the gutter for her theatrics.
Speaker 2: The time belongs to the time belongs to the General Lady.
Speaker 2: The General Lady has seventeen seconds.
Speaker 4: Thank you.
Speaker 14: You're not going to answer this question. So let me
Speaker 14: just chair, what a massive.
Speaker 7: You restore her time?
Speaker 2: The witness have got her with this woman. Let me
Speaker 2: have my General lady. The General Lady from Washington controls
Speaker 2: the time. The General Lady has seventeen seconds. You can,
Speaker 2: you can proceed with your final seventeen second.
Speaker 14: What a massive cover up this has been and continues
Speaker 14: to be. Donald Trump made the release of the Epstein
Speaker 14: files the center of his political campaign because he thought
Speaker 14: it would benefit him. Then you got into office, Attorney General,
Speaker 14: claim to have.
Speaker 4: A client list for the regular order.
Speaker 14: Say that there was no list. Your deputy met alone.
Speaker 2: Maxwell, the general, lady has expired.
Speaker 14: To a minimum security prison. And now you continue the
Speaker 14: time that the lady wish you would turn around to
Speaker 14: the survivors who are standing right behind you, and on
Speaker 14: a human level, Chairman.
Speaker 2: Now recognizes the chicken man is the time of the Jela.
Speaker 7: You have no time to ye back. We appreciate the thought.
Speaker 1: Despicable, disgusting, despicable. She did not ever turn around and
Speaker 1: look at these survivors that are in the room.
Speaker 4: Later, she loses it again.
Speaker 1: When asked why she hasn't indicated any of the Epstein clients,
Speaker 1: in deflex by saying this.
Speaker 11: The dow, the doo right now is over. The dow
Speaker 11: is over fifty thousand dolls. I don't know why you're laughing.
Speaker 11: You're a great stock trader. As I hear raskin the
Speaker 11: DOO is over fifty thousand right now, the S and
Speaker 11: P at almost seven thousand, and the nasdaqs smashing records.
Speaker 11: Americans four oh one k's and retirement savings are booming.
Speaker 11: That's what we should be talking about. We should be
Speaker 11: talking about making Americans say, we should be talking about.
Speaker 4: What does a DOW have to do with anything? That's
Speaker 4: what they just asked.
Speaker 11: Are you kidding, mister Jordan.
Speaker 4: No, it's not.
Speaker 2: You are here for that.
Speaker 11: You are here.
Speaker 4: You are here for hearing on the Epstein files.
Speaker 1: You are the Attorney General of the United States, and
Speaker 1: you are a fucking piece of shit, fucking nightmare.
Speaker 2: That's in response to a question about indicting Epstein clients.
Speaker 2: She just starts talking with the stock market.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and only did you just start talking about it?
Speaker 6: She clearly came with her stats ready to talk about it.
Speaker 5: Because the message is it's fine that all this happened
Speaker 5: and the Trump was involved. As long as the economy
Speaker 5: is good, right, people shouldn't be a complaints.
Speaker 2: It's cartoon it's cartoon behavior.
Speaker 6: Yeah, Like it's not a it's not even some kind
Speaker 6: of sophisticated rute.
Speaker 7: So they just go and look over there.
Speaker 2: This would be like in like a British like sketch
Speaker 2: comedy about the government and like the eighties, like this
Speaker 2: is like, yeah, it is this wild.
Speaker 4: It's truly horrific. Guess what I still have more to share?
Speaker 1: Here is an exchange and another attempt for her to deflect.
Speaker 1: She tries to bring up Merrick Garland again. This is
Speaker 1: with the congresswoman from Vermont.
Speaker 11: Did and ask Merrick Garland anything about Epstein? Not once
Speaker 11: when he was And also I want the record to
Speaker 11: reflect that, you know, with this anti Semitic culture right now,
Speaker 11: she voted against a resolution contempt condemning.
Speaker 4: Oh do you want to go there?
Speaker 2: Attorney?
Speaker 14: Do you want to go there?
Speaker 2: Are you gentlemen talking.
Speaker 15: About a woman who lost your grandfather in the whole.
Speaker 4: It's pretty disgusting.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's crazy, she's.
Speaker 4: Ah, yes, how can I work in being pro Israel?
Speaker 6: Also again, right, she clearly had like if this person speaks,
Speaker 6: this is what I will say.
Speaker 1: It's very clear she had a material like cheat sheet
Speaker 1: of this is how when this person speaks, this is
Speaker 1: my dirt on this person. When this person speaks, this
Speaker 1: is my dirt on this person. There are even photos
Speaker 1: of the dirt she has piled up on each person.
Speaker 1: She had a sheet of like people's search histories. Just
Speaker 1: unbelievable deflection.
Speaker 2: To say the least.
Speaker 4: I have one more clip. I want to display it,
Speaker 4: and then I'd like to talk about it a little
Speaker 4: bit more.
Speaker 10: Yeah, I want to discuss another man, Donald Trump, who
Speaker 10: was all over the Epstein files like former prints.
Speaker 1: Here's the video and for reference, this is the very
Speaker 1: very popular video at Epstein and Trump.
Speaker 4: Worth Epstein wearing that then, I'm sure, and Trump and
Speaker 4: the pink tie.
Speaker 5: They're kind of like elbowing each other and talking about ladies.
Speaker 4: Yeah, laughing, laughing at a party.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you've seen it.
Speaker 10: Yeah, former Prince Andrew. Donald Trump attended various parties with
Speaker 10: Jeffrey Epstein. I want to know whether any underage girls
Speaker 10: at that party or at any party that Trump attended
Speaker 10: with Jeffrey Epstein.
Speaker 15: This is so ridiculous and that they are trying to
Speaker 15: deflect from all the great things Donald Trump has done.
Speaker 15: There is no evidence that Donald Trump has committed a crime.
Speaker 11: Everyone knows that this has been the most transparent presidency.
Speaker 4: He's the one.
Speaker 10: I got your answer.
Speaker 15: Evidence legislation this is belongs to the gentleman from California.
Speaker 10: Okay, I'm going to put up another document from a
Speaker 10: witness who called the FBI's National Threat Operations Center because
Speaker 10: I believe you just lied under oath. There is ample
Speaker 10: evidence into Epstein.
Speaker 11: Don't you ever accuse me of.
Speaker 10: I believe you just lie under oath. And this is
Speaker 10: all on videotape. You said there's no events of crime.
Speaker 10: I'm showing you. Here is a witness statement who who
Speaker 10: called into the fi's Threat Operations Center. He drove Donald
Speaker 10: Trump around in limo. He overheard Donald Trump said to
Speaker 10: Jeffrey on his cell phone he was so angry he
Speaker 10: was going to stop a limo and hurt Donald Trump.
Speaker 10: And he met a girl who said she was raped
Speaker 10: by Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein. She later had her
Speaker 10: head blown off, and the officers at the scene said
Speaker 10: that could not have been suicide. No one, no one
Speaker 10: at the part of justice interviewed this witness. You need
Speaker 10: to interview this witness immediately. Epstein should rot in hell,
Speaker 10: so should the men who patronaze his operation. And as
Speaker 10: we say here today, there are over one thousand sex
Speaker 10: trafficking victims and you have not held a single man accountable.
Speaker 8: Shame on you.
Speaker 10: If you had any decency, you would resign right after
Speaker 10: this here concluded.
Speaker 2: Gentleman has expired.
Speaker 1: She did not answer a single question, honestly, she didn't
Speaker 1: not give a yes or no answer.
Speaker 4: The Republicans spent the time trying.
Speaker 1: To deflect by she had like this sheet of like, well,
Speaker 1: in your state, this person committed a crime in your district.
Speaker 1: This person committed a crime, and tried to deflect every
Speaker 1: which way.
Speaker 5: Congress people aren't law enforcement, like no.
Speaker 1: And the Republicans spent the time praising her and praising
Speaker 1: Trump and touting their own agenda.
Speaker 4: And this is not justice. This is sickening.
Speaker 1: I I what precedent this sends to people who are
Speaker 1: survivors of horrific sex crimes.
Speaker 5: I mean the president they want to send is don't
Speaker 5: say shit, right.
Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. That's what it sends. And we
Speaker 1: can't allow this to go on. We have to keep
Speaker 1: talking about it. Sorry, I'm just very upset. Pam BONDI
Speaker 1: she is one of the most despicable people in the world.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, to get up there with with survivors
Speaker 1: in the room and to not look at them, to
Speaker 1: not answer a single question and to continuously deflect and lie.
Speaker 1: It's impossibly disgusting and very very very sad, very very sad.
Speaker 5: Mm hmm okay, Yeah, well, I don't know what else
Speaker 5: to say about it.
Speaker 4: It's impossibly disgusting and very very sad.
Speaker 8: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I hope that these survivors get some kind of
Speaker 1: justice someday. We are not going to forget about them.
Speaker 1: We are not going to stop talking about it. Something
Speaker 1: has to give here, this is this is not justice,
Speaker 1: This is despicable.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I don't know what's going to happen or if anything's
Speaker 5: going to give in the near future, but people are pissed,
Speaker 5: and hopefully we'll continue to be, which is I guess
Speaker 5: all we can hope for is that before much longer,
Speaker 5: the time comes around where we could make sure that
Speaker 5: these people, including the folks protecting them now pay. So
Speaker 5: you know, yeah, we got any other news or has this? Nope,
Speaker 5: it's a real bummer of an ending. Yeah, well yeah,
Speaker 5: appropriate right now?
Speaker 4: Yeah, we reported the news.
Speaker 5: Gear, Yeah, I love the news.
Speaker 2: We reported the news.
Speaker 1: Yep, James, anything anything you want to plug at the
Speaker 1: end here?
Speaker 6: Yeah, if you want to email us with news tips,
Speaker 6: You can email cool Zone Tips at proton dot me
Speaker 6: if you want to email us with episode ideas. I
Speaker 6: will make another email for that, but it makes it
Speaker 6: significantly harder for all of us going through the news
Speaker 6: tips email if you just email us with things that
Speaker 6: you think we should talk about, so we will try
Speaker 6: and partition those two things off so that we can
Speaker 6: deal with both of them separately.
