Speaker 1: about Joe Biden, but today, at the risk of descending

3
00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:13,040
Speaker 1: into incoherent babbling and sheer pandemonium, we will present the

35
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 1: Michael Knowles, Senator. There is a lot that I want

36
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 1: to get to. To get to Martha's vineyard, I want

37
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 1: to get to the Iranian President. But first I do

38
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 1: not want us to be accused of creating a straw

39
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 1: man out of Joe Biden. Joe Biden just sat down

40
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,920
Speaker 1: with sixty minutes for an interview covering pretty much every

41
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:19,519
Speaker 1: topic under the sun, and I would like to get

42
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:22,919
Speaker 1: your reaction to Biden in his own words, since, as

43
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:26,160
Speaker 1: far as I can tell, the media will never push

44
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 1: the man in any way and push back on his

45
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 1: talking points. Well, unfortunately, his mental acuity is so diminished

46
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 1: that that sixty minutes took one hundred and twenty minutes.

47
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:41,520
Speaker 1: It's that it was a soft bare Yeah, I mean,

48
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:44,240
Speaker 1: how can you not did not go for that one?

49
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 1: Look the press that they're not even the praetorian Guard,

50
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 1: that they are his loyal propagandists, and they allow him

51
00:02:56,280 --> 00:03:02,400
Speaker 1: to spin without challenge. But but but let's get to specifics. Okay,

52
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 1: So first up, he takes on the issue of inflation.

53
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:08,919
Speaker 1: We know we've got forty year record high inflation. The

54
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 1: inflation has kept up. Here is the spin that the

55
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 1: White House is putting on it the president. As you know,

56
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:18,239
Speaker 1: last Tuesday, the annual inflation rate came in at eight

57
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:23,239
Speaker 1: point three percent. The stock market nose dived, people are

58
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:27,680
Speaker 1: shocked by their grocery bills. What can you do better

59
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 1: and faster? Well, first of all, let's put this in perspective.

60
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 1: Inflation rate month to month was just an inch, hardly

61
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 1: at all. You're not arguing that eight point three is

62
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 1: good news. No, I'm not saying it is good news.

63
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 1: But it was eight point two or eight point two before.

64
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 1: I mean, it's not. You may I can make it

65
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 1: sound like all of a sudden, my god, it went

66
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 1: to eight point two percent. It's the highest inflation rate,

67
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 1: mister President in forty years. I got that. But guess

68
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 1: what we are. We're in a position where for the

69
00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 1: last several months it hasn't spiked, it has just barely

70
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 1: has been basically even Look, this is a process. This

71
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 1: is a process. Is the economy going to get worse

72
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:11,000
Speaker 1: before it gets better? No? I don't think so. Okay,

73
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:14,000
Speaker 1: so you saw actually more pushback than I've ever seen

74
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 1: from the media there. It wasn't very much at all,

75
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:18,040
Speaker 1: But at least he saying, come on, man, you know,

76
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 1: like me, throw me a bone here. It's obviously extremely

77
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 1: high inflation. Biden says, no, the month over month has

78
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,720
Speaker 1: barely ticked up. What say you? So you're right, I'll

79
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 1: give Scott Pelley some some credit. He did at least

80
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 1: pushback some, which is more than than than the White

81
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:37,239
Speaker 1: House press briefing typically does. But you know, Biden's argument

82
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 1: is bizarre. He says, well, it's eight point three but

83
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 1: it didn't get any worse. Yeah, I mean it's you know,

84
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 1: I'm reminded of an analogy like like you're you're badly

85
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 1: wounded and you're bleeding out a pint an hour, And

86
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,480
Speaker 1: his defense is, well, it didn't increase, it didn't go

87
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 1: up to two pints an hour, like you're still bleeding

88
00:04:55,920 --> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 1: to death. Like eight point three percent annualized inflation means

89
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 1: that families across this country are badly hurting, and it

90
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:08,640
Speaker 1: is continuing to be It's the highest inflation rate in

91
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 1: forty years. And Biden has no solution for it. But

92
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 1: it's worse than having no solution for it. He doesn't

93
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 1: understand what caused it. There's only one thing that causes inflation.

94
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 1: That's government spending too much money, spending money it doesn't have,

95
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,359
Speaker 1: borrowing money it doesn't have, and printing money it doesn't have.

96
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,520
Speaker 1: Biden's solution is, spend more money they don't have, borrow

97
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 1: more money they don't have, and print more money they

98
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 1: don't have it that will produce more inflation. And Biden's

99
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:38,039
Speaker 1: answer as well, think how much worse it could be?

100
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:40,560
Speaker 1: Think how much worse it could be month over month?

101
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 1: And I think I don't measure inflation month over month.

102
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,039
Speaker 1: Nobody measures inflation month over month. We measure it, measure

103
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:50,679
Speaker 1: it year over year. And the fact is that goods

104
00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:54,479
Speaker 1: cost eight and a half percent more in September of

105
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:57,000
Speaker 1: this year than they did in September of last year.

106
00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 1: And so even that shift of well, let's look at

107
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,839
Speaker 1: the month to month metric, I think, who cares about

108
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 1: that metric. If it's jumped to this much in a year,

109
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:08,719
Speaker 1: that's really really bad. Well, and look, even that figure

110
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,920
Speaker 1: understates it in terms of what Americans are actually feeling.

111
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 1: You take gasoline, gasoline is still double what it was

112
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 1: when Biden was elected. That ain't eight percent. That's double.

113
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 1: That is hurting people. One hundred dollars gas bill is

114
00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,279
Speaker 1: now not unusual to fill up your truck. You know,

115
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,479
Speaker 1: people are seeing one hundred and fifty dollars gas bills,

116
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 1: particularly if you're you're unfortunate enough to live on the

117
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:33,359
Speaker 1: West coast. You know, you look at food bills that

118
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:38,800
Speaker 1: have skyrocketed. You look at you know, you look at electricity.

119
00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 1: I mean my electricity bill. It's a lot more than

120
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 1: eight percent what it was last year. I think a

121
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 1: lot of the bills consumers are paying. Haven't just gone

122
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 1: up a little bit, They've gone up a ton and

123
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,159
Speaker 1: people are hurting. So there's good news that Joe Biden

124
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 1: gave him this interview. I'mid all the terrible economic news.

125
00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 1: He said, No, there's there's a glimmer of light here

126
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:03,040
Speaker 1: because the pandemic, you know, the pandemic from two and

127
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 1: a half years ago that was supposed to end in

128
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 1: fifteen days. The pandemic, he says, is over. The president

129
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:12,800
Speaker 1: first Detroit Auto show in three years. Yeah, is the

130
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:17,400
Speaker 1: pandemic over. The pandemic is over. We still have a

131
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:19,800
Speaker 1: problem with COVID. We're still doing a lot of work

132
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:23,320
Speaker 1: on it. It's what the pandemic is over. If you

133
00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:25,800
Speaker 1: notice no one's wearing masks. Everybody seems to be in

134
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 1: pretty good shape. And so I think it's changing, and

135
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:32,120
Speaker 1: I think this is a perfect example of it. Okay,

136
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 1: one do you agree? And two, if you do agree,

137
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,160
Speaker 1: that's good news. Right, that's something Biden can hang his

138
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 1: hat on. Well, listen, he's right, the pandemic is over.

139
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:43,280
Speaker 1: I'll tell you who doesn't agree. The Biden White House.

140
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:47,480
Speaker 1: Within hours of this interview airing, the White House was

141
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:49,840
Speaker 1: immediately walking back no, no, no, no, no, we didn't

142
00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:53,040
Speaker 1: mean the pandemic is over. Never mind what he actually

143
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 1: said to the camera. Look, man, we have an administration.

144
00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,840
Speaker 1: They still have vaccine mandates in place that they're still

145
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 1: trying to throw people out of the Army and the Navy,

146
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 1: and the Air Force and the Marines because they haven't

147
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:08,280
Speaker 1: gotten vaccinated. They're trying to throw people out of the

148
00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 1: federal government. They're trying to throw FBI agents out there,

149
00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 1: trying to throw Border patrol agents out there, trying to

150
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:18,400
Speaker 1: throw professionals up and down the federal government out look.

151
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:25,120
Speaker 1: The DC Public Schools have announced they're going to impose

152
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:29,080
Speaker 1: a vaccine mandate on the DC public schools that if

153
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:32,440
Speaker 1: a kid hasn't been vaccinated, that kid can't come to school.

154
00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:36,800
Speaker 1: In the District of Columbia, only eighty percent of the

155
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:39,960
Speaker 1: kids have COVID vaccines, but only sixty percent of the

156
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:43,360
Speaker 1: African American kids, So the Democrats are literally trying to

157
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:47,440
Speaker 1: throw forty percent of the African American kids out of school. Now,

158
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 1: they delayed that rule because there was so much pushback

159
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 1: from the parents that they're like, gosh, maybe it isn't

160
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:54,320
Speaker 1: a good idea to throw forty percent of the black

161
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:57,080
Speaker 1: kids out of the DC public schools. Maybe really bad

162
00:08:57,120 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 1: things will happen from that. But these idiots, they're trying

163
00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:05,720
Speaker 1: to impose these mandates. We saw just this week New

164
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:11,280
Speaker 1: York is firing teachers who haven't gotten the COVID vaccine.

165
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:14,280
Speaker 1: We've seen nurses and doctors fired who haven't gotten the

166
00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:20,200
Speaker 1: COVID vaccine. Yes, the pandemic is over, but these petty totalitarians.

167
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:25,199
Speaker 1: Let me ask you something, the US open, Why is

168
00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:28,880
Speaker 1: it that we're putting a vaccine mandate to play tennis

169
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:36,600
Speaker 1: outside with world class athletes? Because these are petty totalitarian despots,

170
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:42,640
Speaker 1: And that answer illustrates We've all known that the pandemic

171
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,080
Speaker 1: was over for a long time, and yet you know what,

172
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:51,360
Speaker 1: Biden's administration is still appealing to impose the mask mandate

173
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 1: on airplanes. His doj is litigating it right now. It's

174
00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:59,200
Speaker 1: only because a courageous federal judge says enough is enough,

175
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:01,280
Speaker 1: get rid of of the mask. And you know what,

176
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:04,200
Speaker 1: You've still got numbskulls on planes, not many, but a

177
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:07,920
Speaker 1: few that they're virtuous, so strong they will mask up

178
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:11,000
Speaker 1: till the end of time. So the disconnect I get

179
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,840
Speaker 1: because there have been many times when the Biden White

180
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:16,959
Speaker 1: House undercuts Joe Biden himself, which raises a lot of

181
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 1: questions about who is running the White House. I get

182
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 1: the disconnect. But the question that I have is why

183
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:25,560
Speaker 1: why are they still pushing COVID? Is it ignorance? Is

184
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:29,760
Speaker 1: it neurosis? Are they really afraid of the Wuhan virus?

185
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 1: Or is it a little more cynical and political than that.

186
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:36,440
Speaker 1: Do they see midterm elections coming up, specially elections that

187
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:39,280
Speaker 1: they don't seem very well situated for, and are they

188
00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:43,760
Speaker 1: hoping to reinstitute some of the extraordinary quote unquote public

189
00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:46,680
Speaker 1: health measures that seem to give them an electoral advantage

190
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:50,080
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty. So I don't think it's the latter. Now,

191
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,760
Speaker 1: to be clear, you're going to see Democrats pushing mail

192
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,000
Speaker 1: in balloting because they think it elects Democrats, and it

193
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:58,240
Speaker 1: does elect Democrats. The more policies they put in place

194
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:01,720
Speaker 1: that increase the likely to fraud, the more likely Democrats

195
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:03,880
Speaker 1: are to win. So it's it doesn't have anything to

196
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:05,480
Speaker 1: do with COVID. It has to do with the fact

197
00:11:05,520 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 1: they want to hold onto power. You know, it's interesting,

198
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:13,080
Speaker 1: it's getting in the mind of a leftist is not easy.

199
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 1: I think there's several things going on. I do think

200
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:20,160
Speaker 1: there are definitely some on the left that have sort

201
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:25,760
Speaker 1: of bought the fear porn, the like we're all gonna die.

202
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:29,320
Speaker 1: We must be masked, we must be quadruple vaxed, we

203
00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:32,200
Speaker 1: must like like some of them that has been so

204
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:35,440
Speaker 1: beaten into them that it's hard for them. It's like

205
00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:39,840
Speaker 1: they have Stockholm syndrome or something. Yeah, you know, it's

206
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:43,640
Speaker 1: like you see the self righteous lefty driving down the

207
00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:45,960
Speaker 1: road in the car alone wearing a mask. You know,

208
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 1: you see people out in DC. I saw this was

209
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 1: several months ago, but I saw like two older ladies

210
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:57,960
Speaker 1: with gray hairs who who They weren't wearing birkenstocks, but

211
00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:02,560
Speaker 1: everything about them conveyed that they were people of the left.

212
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,600
Speaker 1: They had some in the closet, so they were. They

213
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 1: were walking down the street no mask. They saw me

214
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 1: and reached in their purses and put on their mask

215
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 1: because their virtue had to be demonstrated in while I

216
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 1: was on the sidewalk anywhere near them. It that is

217
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:24,840
Speaker 1: a true thing for lefties. I think with lefty politicians

218
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 1: it's a different thing. They like power that they like,

219
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 1: having the authority to say you shut your business, you

220
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 1: shut your school, you get a vaccine, like the vaccine mandate.

221
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:41,400
Speaker 1: It is an exercise of power. I will make you comply.

222
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:45,560
Speaker 1: You know, Joe Biden told Chicago fire half your police

223
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:49,959
Speaker 1: officers if they don't get the vaccine. It is it's

224
00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:54,280
Speaker 1: it is the petty authoritarianism. But the pettiness is the point.

225
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:58,720
Speaker 1: It's I have the power to control you. Now, on

226
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 1: the flip side, I think the inflation component of it.

227
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:05,079
Speaker 1: Part of the reason that Biden says the pandemic is

228
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:08,520
Speaker 1: over is I think they're starting to get scared about November,

229
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:10,599
Speaker 1: and so he's trying to have some good news and

230
00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:13,679
Speaker 1: saying the pandemic is over is him saying, look, see

231
00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:15,959
Speaker 1: we solved COVID. By the way, you're fired if you

232
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,080
Speaker 1: don't get a vaccine. But see we solved COVID. Now.

233
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:22,240
Speaker 1: I alluded earlier to the war in Ukraine, obviously a

234
00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:27,040
Speaker 1: huge challenge for Biden because, in the words of Vladimir Zelenski,

235
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:30,480
Speaker 1: president of Ukraine, Biden largely was the cause of that

236
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:34,160
Speaker 1: of that war by dropping sanctions on Putin and by

237
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,520
Speaker 1: actually sort of inviting him to invade eastern Ukraine and

238
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:40,240
Speaker 1: saying there wouldn't really be consequences. So here's what Biden

239
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:43,400
Speaker 1: said in response to the breakout of the first major

240
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,679
Speaker 1: war in Europe in seventy years. It has been barbaric

241
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:51,560
Speaker 1: when he's donned his attacks on civilian everything from civilian

242
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:56,839
Speaker 1: hospitals to two, you know, people's old age homes to

243
00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:02,599
Speaker 1: neighborhoods for ordinary people, live, schools, schools. It's just outrageous.

244
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:10,480
Speaker 1: And so the price Ukrainian people are paying for this

245
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:12,960
Speaker 1: war is extremely high. But we're going to stay with

246
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:15,640
Speaker 1: them as long as they need our help. You're already

247
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:18,640
Speaker 1: north of fifteen billion dollars in terms of those commitments.

248
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 1: How far do you go as long as it takes

249
00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:28,800
Speaker 1: ironclad commitment. Yes, as Ukraine succeeds on the battlefield, Vladimir

250
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 1: Putin is becoming embarrassed and pushed into a corner. And

251
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:36,760
Speaker 1: I wonder, mister President, what you would say to him

252
00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:42,160
Speaker 1: if he is considering using chemical or tactical nuclear weapons. Don't,

253
00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 1: don't don't. It will change the face of war unlike

254
00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 1: anything since World War Two, And the consequences of that

255
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:57,960
Speaker 1: would be what what would the US response be? You

256
00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:00,040
Speaker 1: think I would tell you if I knew exactly it

257
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 1: would be. Of course, I'm not going to tell you.

258
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:04,440
Speaker 1: So there's a little bit of a slip he has

259
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 1: at the end, which is he admits he doesn't know

260
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 1: what the response of me, And he said, do you

261
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 1: think I would tell you even if I did know?

262
00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:12,080
Speaker 1: And certainly he's not going to be the one formulating

263
00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:15,280
Speaker 1: those strategies. But putting aside the blame game, which which

264
00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:19,040
Speaker 1: we know you Zelenski blames Biden for the war, But

265
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:21,520
Speaker 1: putting aside the blame game for a second, what do

266
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:25,520
Speaker 1: you make of his answer, Yes, we will stick with Ukraine, Yes,

267
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:27,640
Speaker 1: there's no end to the support that we will give,

268
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:32,160
Speaker 1: and his deterrent speech a slight, slight bit of rhetoric

269
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:37,480
Speaker 1: against Putin. Look, he asked, what do you do? What

270
00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:39,880
Speaker 1: do you say if Putin is going to drop a

271
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 1: nuclear bomb in Europe? It's kind of a big question.

272
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 1: Biden's answer is dot dot d Okay, It's uncanny. It's

273
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:02,280
Speaker 1: like I've got Biden right in front of me. Okay,

274
00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 1: just just listening to that. Is there anyone on planet

275
00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:12,600
Speaker 1: or Earth who that would deter from doing anything? Literally anything?

276
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:15,560
Speaker 1: A third grader who's beating up another third grader who

277
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:21,120
Speaker 1: heard someone going dude, dude, that third grader is getting

278
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 1: punched in the nose like look. One of the responsibilities

279
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 1: of the commander in chief is to deter our enemies.

280
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:38,000
Speaker 1: Why did Putin invade Ukraine. One of the reasons was

281
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:43,160
Speaker 1: Biden's weakness waiving sanctions, But another week reason was Biden

282
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:48,440
Speaker 1: is so incredibly weak that every bad actor looks at

283
00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:50,640
Speaker 1: the commander in chief and says, this guy ain't gonna

284
00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:54,920
Speaker 1: stop nothing. And so you know, as you noted, he said, well,

285
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:56,640
Speaker 1: even if I knew what I was gonna do, I

286
00:16:56,680 --> 00:17:03,080
Speaker 1: wouldn't do anything. Look. I pray Putin does not use

287
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:08,240
Speaker 1: nuclear weapons, but that statement right there increase the likelihood

288
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:10,639
Speaker 1: that he will. And we need a commander in chief.

289
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:13,680
Speaker 1: I agree, you don't say exactly what the consequences are,

290
00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 1: but a commander in chief looks in the TV camera

291
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:20,360
Speaker 1: and says, using nuclear weapons in Europe would be an

292
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:28,240
Speaker 1: extraordinary escalation and the consequences would be devastating. It would

293
00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:33,840
Speaker 1: be devastating to Putin to Russia, to the regime. Under

294
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 1: no circumstances will the world sit by and watch a

295
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:42,920
Speaker 1: Russian dictator use a nuclear weapon. That's what a commander

296
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:47,080
Speaker 1: in chief says, not some you know what. It reminds

297
00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:50,720
Speaker 1: me of who's the little old guy in the Simpsons

298
00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:54,840
Speaker 1: who's always getting killed? Like the little bald guy. I

299
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:57,080
Speaker 1: can't remember the name of that character that I forget

300
00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:00,399
Speaker 1: his name too, but that's who Biden seemed like. Yet

301
00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:05,119
Speaker 1: we need strength of the Oval office, that ain't it now?

302
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:10,440
Speaker 1: I remember, after Biden's completely botched withdrawal from Afghanistan, you

303
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:13,600
Speaker 1: said on this show that the way in which America

304
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:16,719
Speaker 1: pulled out of Afghanistan makes an invasion of Ukraine by

305
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:20,480
Speaker 1: Russia much more likely, and an invasion of Taiwan by

306
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:24,840
Speaker 1: China much more likely. That's the next question that Joe

307
00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:27,800
Speaker 1: Biden gets asked. Here's what he says about a potential

308
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:34,480
Speaker 1: Chinese further takeover of Taiwan. What should Chinese President She

309
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 1: know about your commitment to Taiwan. We agree with what

310
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:42,680
Speaker 1: we signed on to a long time ago, and there's

311
00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:45,960
Speaker 1: one China policy, and Taiwan makes their own judgments about

312
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:49,840
Speaker 1: their independence. We are not moving. We're not encouraging them

313
00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:53,880
Speaker 1: being independent. We're not that's their decision. But would US

314
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,920
Speaker 1: forces defend the island yes, if in fact there was

315
00:18:56,960 --> 00:19:01,400
Speaker 1: an unprecedented attack. After our interview, white House official told

316
00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:06,400
Speaker 1: US US policy has not changed. Officially, the US will

317
00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:11,560
Speaker 1: not say whether American forces would defend Taiwan, but the

318
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:14,760
Speaker 1: Commander in chief had a view of his own, so

319
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:19,520
Speaker 1: unlike Ukraine, to be clear, Sir, US forces, US men

320
00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 1: and women would defend Taiwan in the event of a

321
00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:27,680
Speaker 1: Chinese invasion. Yes, So it's amazing in that interview, how

322
00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:31,240
Speaker 1: as Biden is sort of babbling his answer, the voiceover

323
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:33,000
Speaker 1: just takes there and says, yeah, okay, never mind what

324
00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:35,680
Speaker 1: he says. The White House actually he contradicts him. And

325
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:39,240
Speaker 1: so now you've got this disagreement yet again between Joe

326
00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 1: Biden and the White House. Whatever that means. You've got

327
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:47,840
Speaker 1: this question about what exactly America's policy view visa VI

328
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:51,600
Speaker 1: Taiwan is. There is this question of the one China

329
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:55,359
Speaker 1: policy again, whatever that is. That phrase has been taken

330
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:58,320
Speaker 1: to mean different things at different times over the decades.

331
00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:01,920
Speaker 1: So two parts, One, what is Joe Biden slash the

332
00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:04,880
Speaker 1: White House actually saying here? And two do you think

333
00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 1: that their approach is the right policy to Taiwan? So look,

334
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:12,200
Speaker 1: nobody knows what the hell he's saying. I get to say,

335
00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:17,240
Speaker 1: when Biden talks about foreign policy, I've never seen a

336
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:21,240
Speaker 1: president like this in my lifetime, where he screws it

337
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:26,440
Speaker 1: up every day. But like he just says things. This

338
00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:28,439
Speaker 1: is a guy you wouldn't let handle the remote control

339
00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:32,200
Speaker 1: of your television set. He doesn't understand what he's saying.

340
00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:36,240
Speaker 1: He doesn't know what he's saying. Look, that voiceover is weird.

341
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:40,480
Speaker 1: Think about it. Have you ever seen a president of

342
00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:45,120
Speaker 1: the United States interviewed and his White House staff had

343
00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:49,720
Speaker 1: to correct and retract what he said mid interview, not

344
00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:53,720
Speaker 1: even afterwards, because they're like, oh crap. He just like

345
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:58,240
Speaker 1: fundamentally changed US policy towards China and Taiwan, and he

346
00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:01,760
Speaker 1: doesn't know it. He is no aware of it. It's

347
00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:06,200
Speaker 1: one thing. Look, a commander in chief has the prerogative

348
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:08,840
Speaker 1: to change US foreign policy. That's part of what a

349
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:13,159
Speaker 1: president has an ability to do, at least in significant respect,

350
00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:17,679
Speaker 1: although Congress plays a major role in that also. But

351
00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:22,879
Speaker 1: watching that interview, listen, it's genuinely frightening because he doesn't

352
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:30,120
Speaker 1: appreciate any of that nuance. We have an obligation by

353
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:34,119
Speaker 1: statute to support Taiwan and to support Taiwan in the

354
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:39,200
Speaker 1: face of Chinese aggression. The word support has a lot

355
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:43,200
Speaker 1: of flexibility. We have never passed legislation, We've never signed

356
00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:46,520
Speaker 1: a treaty committing to send US servicemen and women to

357
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:52,440
Speaker 1: fight Chinese soldiers to defend Taiwan. We've committed to support them.

358
00:21:53,240 --> 00:22:00,119
Speaker 1: But what constitutes support The statute deliberately doesn't define. And

359
00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:04,960
Speaker 1: Biden is just cavalier and saying, yep, I'd send US

360
00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:07,400
Speaker 1: soldiers to go fighting. You know, it's not like they're

361
00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:10,480
Speaker 1: talking about fighting Grenada to fight the Chinese Red Army.

362
00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:13,560
Speaker 1: That's kind of a big deal. Let's go to war.

363
00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:18,640
Speaker 1: And he does it with no appreciation of it. When

364
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:23,720
Speaker 1: the White House walks it back, it makes clear that

365
00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:28,679
Speaker 1: the administration is incoherent on it. And this actually there

366
00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:31,080
Speaker 1: are a lot of similarities to this discussion and the

367
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:37,560
Speaker 1: Ukraine Nordstream to discussion. This President and the Democrats don't

368
00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:41,200
Speaker 1: understand the difference between deterrance and acting after the fact.

369
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:49,959
Speaker 1: The best way to protect Taiwan is prevent China from

370
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:53,120
Speaker 1: going in in the first place, and to do that

371
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:58,520
Speaker 1: means you want deterrence. In terms of number one, massive

372
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:03,080
Speaker 1: and cataclysmics sanctions on China such that the penalty the

373
00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:08,359
Speaker 1: Chinese would pay makes them think again, using levers of

374
00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:12,000
Speaker 1: power we have that are not sending our sons and

375
00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:20,440
Speaker 1: daughters to die, but secondly preparing and equipping the Taiwanese

376
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:22,920
Speaker 1: to defend themselves. You know, there's a phrase that is

377
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:26,359
Speaker 1: used by the military planners of that Taiwan should be

378
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:30,120
Speaker 1: a porcupine. In other words, that like, if the Chinese

379
00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:32,040
Speaker 1: try to invade, there should be a lot of spines

380
00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:35,320
Speaker 1: that they should be really eager to put their tushy

381
00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:42,359
Speaker 1: little dairy air on top of that means expediting armed

382
00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:45,280
Speaker 1: sails to Taiwan. Now, and look, Taiwan is a wealthy country.

383
00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:49,639
Speaker 1: They have the money to pay for F sixteens, to

384
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:53,640
Speaker 1: pay for advanced weapons systems, to pay for equipment, so

385
00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:58,560
Speaker 1: that if the Chinese military planners are assessing costs and

386
00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:05,000
Speaker 1: benefit of invasion, the Taiwanese are really robustly available, prepared

387
00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:09,360
Speaker 1: to repel an invasion. That's actually being smart and proactive

388
00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:13,360
Speaker 1: on the front end. Biden's not doing nearly enough of that.

389
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:17,960
Speaker 1: And in fact, let me give you a very specific example.

390
00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:26,080
Speaker 1: So the people of Taiwan under Barack Obama the Chinese

391
00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:31,639
Speaker 1: government got mad because the people of Taiwan were allowing

392
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 1: the or the US government was allowing Taiwanese government officials

393
00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:39,159
Speaker 1: to have a Taiwanese flag and allowing Taiwanese soldiers to

394
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:44,399
Speaker 1: wear Taiwanese military insignia. So the Obama administration passed a

395
00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:48,880
Speaker 1: new regulation prohibiting taiwan from displaying their flag on US

396
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:52,440
Speaker 1: government property or from any Taiwanese soldier wearing a uniform.

397
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:55,879
Speaker 1: It's bizarre. It's the only nation on earth that we

398
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:59,639
Speaker 1: don't let them wear their own military uniforms. That was

399
00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:08,720
Speaker 1: inexplicit capitulation to the government of China when Trump became president.

400
00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:11,520
Speaker 1: For the first three and a half years of the

401
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:14,879
Speaker 1: Trump presidency, unfortunately, the State Department kept that rule in place,

402
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:18,800
Speaker 1: and I spent three and a half years basically taking

403
00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:21,680
Speaker 1: a two by four to the Trump State Department, to

404
00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:25,160
Speaker 1: Rex Tillerson and then Mike Pompeo saying this is stupid.

405
00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:29,399
Speaker 1: We should allow our Taiwanese friends and allies to display

406
00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:33,160
Speaker 1: their flag and their soldiers to wear their uniforms. Three

407
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:34,680
Speaker 1: and a half years, I beat them up. I beat

408
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,880
Speaker 1: Tillerson up on it, and then I beat Mike Pompeo

409
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 1: up on it. Finally, in the latter half of the

410
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:46,200
Speaker 1: last year the Trump presidency, the State Department reversed its rules.

411
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:52,200
Speaker 1: Pat Pompeo agreed with me, reversed the policy and said, okay,

412
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:57,520
Speaker 1: Taiwan now can display their flags and wear their uniforms

413
00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:01,399
Speaker 1: on US government property. Biden came in when Tony blink In,

414
00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:03,760
Speaker 1: the new Secretary of State, was coming in. I questioned

415
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:07,840
Speaker 1: him about this at his hearing, and he said that

416
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,680
Speaker 1: they would maintain the current policy, in other words, allow

417
00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:14,359
Speaker 1: Taiwan to display their symbols of sovereignty. What happens b

418
00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:17,639
Speaker 1: Lincoln gets confirmed. They flipped the policy. So now the

419
00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:21,240
Speaker 1: Biden administration refuses to allow any symbols of sovereignty. Now.

420
00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:27,199
Speaker 1: I have passed into law now twice, my legislation, the

421
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:31,359
Speaker 1: Taiwan Symbols of Sovereignty legislation that would allow Taiwan to

422
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:34,240
Speaker 1: display their flag and display and the soldiers to wear

423
00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:38,200
Speaker 1: their uniforms. The Biden administration stripped it out at the

424
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:41,520
Speaker 1: last minute of the legislation that that just passed. And

425
00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:45,080
Speaker 1: there's another bill that's moving that Joe Biden is actively

426
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:49,840
Speaker 1: lobbying removing it. I've been able to get both Republicans

427
00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:52,480
Speaker 1: and Democrats in the Senate to agree with this legislation,

428
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:56,359
Speaker 1: and yet Biden is so committed to appeasing China that

429
00:26:56,440 --> 00:27:00,840
Speaker 1: he's trying to pull it out. And so it's dangerous

430
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:06,480
Speaker 1: when there's this incoherence on policy on a matter as

431
00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:12,639
Speaker 1: important and consequential as stopping and standing up to communist

432
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:17,560
Speaker 1: China and deferring Chinese aggression. And I think this Biden

433
00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:20,760
Speaker 1: interview just makes it worse. Will rather than answer any

434
00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:26,040
Speaker 1: questions in sensible detail on his own foreign policy, Biden

435
00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:32,080
Speaker 1: then turned the interview away from his own administration's views

436
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:36,920
Speaker 1: toward Donald Trump, suggesting that Donald Trump imperiled national security

437
00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:41,719
Speaker 1: by keeping classified documents at Mara Lago, for which Biden

438
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:43,879
Speaker 1: then sent the FBI to go go knock down the

439
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:48,159
Speaker 1: doors of the presidents and now main political rival to

440
00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:51,560
Speaker 1: Joe Biden of his residence. Here's what Biden had to say,

441
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:56,320
Speaker 1: When you saw the photograph of the top secret documents

442
00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:58,880
Speaker 1: laid out on the floor of Mara Lago, what did

443
00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:03,679
Speaker 1: you think to yourself looking at that image, how that

444
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:09,639
Speaker 1: could possibly happen, How anyone could be that irresponsible? And

445
00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:12,800
Speaker 1: I thought, what data was in there that may compromise

446
00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:16,440
Speaker 1: sources and methods. By that, I mean names of people

447
00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:22,520
Speaker 1: who helped, etc. And it's just totally irresponsible, And you

448
00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:25,960
Speaker 1: don't know what was in those documents. I have not

449
00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:29,440
Speaker 1: asked for the specifics of those documents because I don't

450
00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:31,359
Speaker 1: want to get myself in the middle of whether or

451
00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:34,600
Speaker 1: not the Just Department should move or not move on

452
00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:38,160
Speaker 1: certain actions they can take. I agreed, I would not

453
00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:41,200
Speaker 1: tell them what to do, and not in fact engage

454
00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:45,400
Speaker 1: in telling them how to prosecute or not. So one,

455
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:48,920
Speaker 1: was it really so shocking? I asked that somewhat sincerely,

456
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:51,600
Speaker 1: was it really so shocking the photograph that the FBI released?

457
00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:54,920
Speaker 1: I have my suspicions about it, but I'd like to

458
00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:57,720
Speaker 1: know your answer. And then too, what do you make

459
00:28:57,720 --> 00:28:59,640
Speaker 1: of Joe Biden saying, Look, I don't want to get

460
00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:02,520
Speaker 1: involved here. I don't I don't want this investigation of

461
00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:06,200
Speaker 1: Trump to look political. Look, every part of that answer

462
00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:09,440
Speaker 1: was an absolute crock. Number one is it's shocking to

463
00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:12,560
Speaker 1: see empty minilla folders. No, I've seen more frightening things

464
00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:15,520
Speaker 1: in my life than that. You might get a papercut

465
00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:17,800
Speaker 1: from it. I guess that's shocking. It is a little terrifying,

466
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:21,640
Speaker 1: you know, it's a little rich saying Biden go on

467
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:27,400
Speaker 1: about how horribly irresponsible it was without any acknowledgement. There

468
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:30,080
Speaker 1: was a certain person named Hillary Clinton who had tens

469
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:33,800
Speaker 1: of thousands of documents on a private email server that

470
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:39,200
Speaker 1: was subject to hacking, including potentially classified documents, in violation

471
00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:43,360
Speaker 1: of law, and Biden was vice president in the administration

472
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:46,480
Speaker 1: that refused to prosecute her, that that gave her a

473
00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:48,600
Speaker 1: hall pass and said never mind, and by you, by

474
00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:50,920
Speaker 1: the way, this is a Hillary Clinton who also in

475
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:55,680
Speaker 1: obstructing the investigation. They use hammers to shatter cell phones

476
00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 1: and destroy evidence. They they they use equipment to wipe

477
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:04,440
Speaker 1: drives cleaned to obstruct from the investigation. And so the

478
00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:07,280
Speaker 1: blazing hypocrisy. And by the way, we've also talked about

479
00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:12,680
Speaker 1: on this podcast, how every president after the presidency retains

480
00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:14,960
Speaker 1: documents and there's a back and forth with getting the

481
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:18,240
Speaker 1: documents back in the archives, and it takes it takes months,

482
00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 1: and it takes years. And Obama I had thousands of

483
00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:23,960
Speaker 1: documents that still haven't been submitted back. And so that

484
00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:29,720
Speaker 1: the weaponization and politicization over a document production question is

485
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:35,160
Speaker 1: I think quite absurd. But for me, the most priceless

486
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:41,320
Speaker 1: part of that exchange was the self righteous I would

487
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:46,240
Speaker 1: never put myself in whether my Department of Justice should

488
00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:50,360
Speaker 1: go after him. What an utter cruck go to point

489
00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:55,240
Speaker 1: out two facts. Number One, when Joe Biden was Vice

490
00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:59,400
Speaker 1: president on January fifth, he participated this is twenty seventeen,

491
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:04,400
Speaker 1: in an Oval office meeting with Barack Obama, where he

492
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:08,440
Speaker 1: suggested to the Department of Justice that they go after

493
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:12,600
Speaker 1: Michael Flynn, then Donald Trump's incoming national security advisor, under

494
00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:17,960
Speaker 1: the Logan Act, because Michael Flynn, the incoming National Security Advisor,

495
00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:20,520
Speaker 1: had had a conversation with a foreign leader. Mind you,

496
00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:22,959
Speaker 1: every national security advisor in the history of the country

497
00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:25,520
Speaker 1: has had lots of conversations with foreign leaders, because that's

498
00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:29,160
Speaker 1: their frigging job to have conversations with foreign leaders. But

499
00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:33,320
Speaker 1: it was Biden who suggested go prosecute them, and who

500
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:35,720
Speaker 1: also signed off on and by the way, keep this

501
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:41,360
Speaker 1: entire prosecution and persecution secret from the incoming president. So

502
00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:44,520
Speaker 1: that is in writing Sally Yates, the Deputy Attorney General,

503
00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:47,640
Speaker 1: her notes show it was Biden's idea to do this.

504
00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:50,960
Speaker 1: So you want to talk about someone who's personally directed

505
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:55,200
Speaker 1: the weaponization of DJ against the Trump administration. Joe Biden's

506
00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:58,360
Speaker 1: right at the top of that list, and secondly at president.

507
00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:02,840
Speaker 1: As president, he has repeatedly called on you know, I

508
00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:04,920
Speaker 1: think the Department of Justice needs to be tougher going

509
00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:09,360
Speaker 1: after Trump. He's calling for them publicly. You know, it's

510
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:11,360
Speaker 1: like the classic you know, who will rid me of

511
00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:15,240
Speaker 1: this troublesome cleric. He's just calling out loud. And if

512
00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:18,360
Speaker 1: only there's a Department of Justice or an FBI that

513
00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:21,200
Speaker 1: might listen and send, say, fifty agents to raid the

514
00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:23,959
Speaker 1: guy's house. But I don't know about it. I just

515
00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:26,640
Speaker 1: publicly mused, wouldn't it be nice if they did it?

516
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:31,960
Speaker 1: What a crock Yeah, of course, of course. And to

517
00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:36,760
Speaker 1: say this is not political is you know, Strand's credulity.

518
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:40,640
Speaker 1: It's beyond the point of absurdity. And yet, and yet,

519
00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:42,720
Speaker 1: there is a question about whether or not Biden will

520
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:45,760
Speaker 1: run in twenty twenty four. Biden thus far has said yes,

521
00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:49,160
Speaker 1: I am running. Biden has filed the paperwork to run.

522
00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:53,160
Speaker 1: You have said on this podcast, Biden's not going to run.

523
00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:56,960
Speaker 1: He can't run. Biden for the first time, I think,

524
00:32:57,000 --> 00:33:00,960
Speaker 1: when asked this question starts to open the door to

525
00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:04,040
Speaker 1: not running in twenty twenty four. Were you committed to

526
00:33:04,120 --> 00:33:07,800
Speaker 1: running again or are there certain conditions that have to

527
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:10,440
Speaker 1: be right. Look, if I were to say to you,

528
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:12,600
Speaker 1: I'm running again, all of a sudden, the whole range

529
00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:15,120
Speaker 1: of things come into play that I have requirements I

530
00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:17,680
Speaker 1: have to change and move and do in terms of election,

531
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,760
Speaker 1: in terms of election loss. And it's much too early

532
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:23,840
Speaker 1: to make that kind of decision. I'm a great respecter

533
00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:26,680
Speaker 1: of fate, and so what I'm doing is I'm doing

534
00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:28,640
Speaker 1: my job. I'm going to do that job and within

535
00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:32,200
Speaker 1: the time frame that makes sense. After this next election

536
00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:34,880
Speaker 1: cycle here, going into next year, make a judgment of

537
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:38,800
Speaker 1: what to do. You say that it's much too early

538
00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:41,520
Speaker 1: to make that decision. I take it the decision has

539
00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:45,200
Speaker 1: not been made in your own head. Look, my intentions,

540
00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:48,400
Speaker 1: I said to begin with, is that I would run again.

541
00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:50,720
Speaker 1: But it's just an intention. But is it a firm

542
00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:54,040
Speaker 1: decision that I've run again? That remains to be seen.

543
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:58,520
Speaker 1: How would you say your mental focus is? Well, it's focused,

544
00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:03,920
Speaker 1: I says, I think it's I haven't. Look, I have

545
00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:07,920
Speaker 1: trouble even mentioning, even saying to myself my own head,

546
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:10,560
Speaker 1: the number of years. I no more think of myself

547
00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:13,600
Speaker 1: as being as old as I am than fly. I mean,

548
00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:18,799
Speaker 1: it's just not I haven't observed anything in terms of

549
00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:22,040
Speaker 1: there's not things I don't do now that I did before,

550
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:25,920
Speaker 1: whether it's physical or mental or anything else. Mister President,

551
00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:31,080
Speaker 1: you are the oldest president ever. Pretty good shape, uh,

552
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:34,320
Speaker 1: which leads to my next question. You are more aware

553
00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:38,520
Speaker 1: of this than anyone. Some people ask whether you are

554
00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:42,400
Speaker 1: fit for the job. And when you hear that, I

555
00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:49,120
Speaker 1: wonder what you think. Watch me not great advice, I

556
00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:51,799
Speaker 1: think if Joe Biden's trying to garner su board. But

557
00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:55,320
Speaker 1: your take on that, senator reading between the lines, is

558
00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:59,120
Speaker 1: the guy running in twenty twenty four? No, no way,

559
00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:01,520
Speaker 1: All right, There of different elements of that, so let's

560
00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:07,759
Speaker 1: unpack that. So, first of all, he starts out with

561
00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:12,440
Speaker 1: latently false legal advice. And I recognize Joe Biden was

562
00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:15,359
Speaker 1: never a very good lawyer, but he really showed that there.

563
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:19,719
Speaker 1: So he says, well, they're legal consequences if I say

564
00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:24,160
Speaker 1: I'm running. Joseph Robinette Biden, Junior is the incumbent President

565
00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:26,440
Speaker 1: of the United States. He has filed paperwork with the

566
00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:29,880
Speaker 1: fec as a candidate for president of the United States

567
00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:33,640
Speaker 1: in the next election. He is, legally speaking, a candidate

568
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:35,960
Speaker 1: for president of the United States in the next election.

569
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:39,000
Speaker 1: He is raising money to run in the next election.

570
00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:42,160
Speaker 1: Everything about that is triggered because he is an active

571
00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:46,560
Speaker 1: candidate raising money for that election cycle. For the twenty

572
00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:51,279
Speaker 1: twenty four election. Nothing changes if he says yes or no.

573
00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:56,439
Speaker 1: Now what Biden is mimicking. So Trump has said if

574
00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:58,600
Speaker 1: I say I'm running, that triggers things. That's true, it

575
00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:01,200
Speaker 1: does for Trump. Why because Trump is not the sitting

576
00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:03,239
Speaker 1: president of the United States, and he is not a

577
00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:06,640
Speaker 1: filed candidate. When you file for a candidate, that does

578
00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:11,200
Speaker 1: trigger limitations. That does trigger a whole set of legal restrictions,

579
00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:13,480
Speaker 1: all of which apply to Biden one way or the other.

580
00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:19,399
Speaker 1: So Biden's opening answer is just gobbledegook. But secondly, and

581
00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:23,600
Speaker 1: here's where I'll be oddly defending Biden in this respect,

582
00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:29,959
Speaker 1: I understand why he doesn't want to say no, I'm

583
00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:32,440
Speaker 1: not running. I think the chances that he's running a zero.

584
00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:36,520
Speaker 1: He's too old. He knows he's too old. The party

585
00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:39,200
Speaker 1: would lose its mind if he ran. He's not up

586
00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:41,160
Speaker 1: to doing the job now. The idea that he would

587
00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:43,840
Speaker 1: run again when he's one hundred and forty two, it

588
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:48,040
Speaker 1: just it ain't gonna happen. But I understand why a

589
00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:51,000
Speaker 1: sitting president doesn't want to announce that. If you announce

590
00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:53,520
Speaker 1: I'm not running, you turn yourself into a lame duck

591
00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:58,240
Speaker 1: a year and a half into his term. That makes

592
00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:01,759
Speaker 1: sense for him. It is reasonable and rational for him

593
00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:07,880
Speaker 1: not to telegraph I ain't run it again. So I

594
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:12,080
Speaker 1: think that's what he's doing. But you know, one of

595
00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:14,239
Speaker 1: the things that makes perfectly obvious that he is that

596
00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:17,600
Speaker 1: he's not running again is the Democrats are all openly campaigning.

597
00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:20,239
Speaker 1: They're at least four the top tier of the Democrats

598
00:37:20,560 --> 00:37:25,160
Speaker 1: are Kamala Harris, Pete Buddha Gedge, Elizabeth Warren, and Gavin Newson.

599
00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:27,480
Speaker 1: All four of them are running right now. They're stabbing

600
00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:30,719
Speaker 1: each other in the back, They're they're running around preening

601
00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:34,080
Speaker 1: for the cameras that the primary is happening right now

602
00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:39,359
Speaker 1: and they all know it. Um do you think any

603
00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:43,520
Speaker 1: of them are doing particularly well or better than any

604
00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:48,560
Speaker 1: of the others. I think Kamala is doing lousy. I

605
00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:52,320
Speaker 1: think she's had a spectacularly bad tenure as vice president.

606
00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:56,759
Speaker 1: She came in as the prohibitive favorite. Like a year

607
00:37:56,800 --> 00:38:00,440
Speaker 1: and a half ago, there was an argument that she

608
00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:03,359
Speaker 1: would even clear the field potentially as the sitting vice

609
00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:07,600
Speaker 1: president for the Democratic president who's African American, whose female.

610
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:11,480
Speaker 1: I mean that the Democrats are such bean counters and

611
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:16,360
Speaker 1: so ind identity politics that that on paper, you're like, wow,

612
00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:20,920
Speaker 1: can how could anyone even run against her? She's screwed

613
00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:24,279
Speaker 1: things up so badly for so long that they're all

614
00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:26,719
Speaker 1: sharpening their knives and they've decided to forget about it.

615
00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:30,120
Speaker 1: Buddha Gedge was the earliest, so early on you had

616
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:33,440
Speaker 1: the Harris Buddha Jedge jabbing back and forth. The most

617
00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:38,239
Speaker 1: recent entrant to the field is Newsome, whose ambition is

618
00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:42,640
Speaker 1: just bursting off. He's you know, I think the most

619
00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:46,000
Speaker 1: dangerous place in California right now might be between Gavin

620
00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:51,120
Speaker 1: Newsom and a TV camera and then Warren. So Warren

621
00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:55,040
Speaker 1: doesn't get talked about that much, but to my mind,

622
00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:59,839
Speaker 1: Warren is a dark horse in this field because she's

623
00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:06,400
Speaker 1: still represents the id of the hardcore progressive socialist Marxist left,

624
00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:13,080
Speaker 1: and that can be potent in a Democrat primary. So

625
00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:15,000
Speaker 1: I think they're they're leaning in more and more. I

626
00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:17,800
Speaker 1: will say the tail end of Biden, are you two old?

627
00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:21,760
Speaker 1: And he says, just watch me like we have been dude,

628
00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:27,160
Speaker 1: Like like, yeah, you shake hair, hands with the empty air,

629
00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:30,480
Speaker 1: you talk to the easter bunny. You get confused, like

630
00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:35,160
Speaker 1: tying your shoes. That that that that's the problem. You

631
00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:39,320
Speaker 1: screw up. You commit to to invading China, defend Taiwan

632
00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:41,520
Speaker 1: just as a slip of the tongue that your own

633
00:39:41,600 --> 00:39:45,680
Speaker 1: staff has to correct mid interview. That let me just

634
00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:52,600
Speaker 1: engage an understatement does not suggest the maximum level of competence. Hmm.

635
00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:57,960
Speaker 1: Very diplomatic speaking of Bidens who have made a mess

636
00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:02,600
Speaker 1: of things overseas. U he did address his son. The

637
00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:05,720
Speaker 1: Hunter Biden issue has gotten worse and worse and worse.

638
00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:08,879
Speaker 1: Something like twelve to seventeen percent of people who voted

639
00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:13,640
Speaker 1: for Joe Biden twenty twenty later told polsters that had

640
00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:16,839
Speaker 1: they known about Hunter Biden's crimes, had the Hunter Biden

641
00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:20,319
Speaker 1: lapstop story not been suppressed by the entire big tech establishment,

642
00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:22,640
Speaker 1: they would not have voted for Joe Biden. This is

643
00:40:22,640 --> 00:40:26,000
Speaker 1: clearly a big liability for him if the story can

644
00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:29,000
Speaker 1: get out, not just about the hookers and the drugs,

645
00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:32,520
Speaker 1: but also the business dealings, the trading of US influence.

646
00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:36,320
Speaker 1: And so Biden was asked about Hunter. Here here's his answer,

647
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:41,480
Speaker 1: the President, if you run again, Republicans are most likely

648
00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:47,000
Speaker 1: to go after your son Hunter once again. And I

649
00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:50,600
Speaker 1: wonder what you would like to say about your son

650
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:56,879
Speaker 1: and whether any of his troubles have caused conflicts for

651
00:40:56,920 --> 00:41:01,480
Speaker 1: you or for the United States. I love my son.

652
00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:07,520
Speaker 1: Number one, he fought an addiction problem, he overcame it,

653
00:41:07,640 --> 00:41:11,440
Speaker 1: he wrote about it. And no, there's not a single

654
00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:15,160
Speaker 1: thing that I've observed at all from that it would

655
00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:18,280
Speaker 1: affect me or the United States relative to my son Hunter.

656
00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:24,560
Speaker 1: Fair answer, Senator. Oh look, I understand why Biden gave

657
00:41:24,640 --> 00:41:27,640
Speaker 1: that answer. That's an answer probably a lot of fathers

658
00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:34,360
Speaker 1: would give. The real indictment is CBS that they took

659
00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:38,640
Speaker 1: that answer. They just says, well, gosh, meaneasers are saying

660
00:41:38,719 --> 00:41:42,160
Speaker 1: mean things about your son. Anything you want to say,

661
00:41:42,239 --> 00:41:44,600
Speaker 1: I love my son. Oh, okay, thank you, thank you.

662
00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:48,759
Speaker 1: I appreciate that's hard hitting news. Okay, Like, look, the

663
00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:53,120
Speaker 1: guy has videoed himself committing multiple felonies. When you have

664
00:41:53,239 --> 00:41:56,280
Speaker 1: crack cocaine and you're with prostitutes waving a gun around

665
00:41:56,320 --> 00:42:00,360
Speaker 1: that like violates so many laws it's difficult to to

666
00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:05,839
Speaker 1: catalog this. Biden Department of Justice doesn't enforce the laws

667
00:42:05,880 --> 00:42:08,200
Speaker 1: with respect to him, and that doesn't even begin to

668
00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:13,040
Speaker 1: touch the corruption the deals with Ukraine. Look, verdict started

669
00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:17,239
Speaker 1: out talking about brisman impeachment. All of that now is

670
00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:21,000
Speaker 1: ancient history. Getting paid eighty three thousand dollars a month

671
00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:24,560
Speaker 1: by a Ukrainian natural gas company when you don't when

672
00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:28,080
Speaker 1: you don't know anything about Ukraine or natural gas, that's

673
00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:32,440
Speaker 1: reeks of corruption. I think this is really the point here, Senator,

674
00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:35,520
Speaker 1: because you know, if Biden just gave the answer and said, look,

675
00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:37,960
Speaker 1: I love my son, he's a drug addict, degenerate, but

676
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:40,239
Speaker 1: hopefully he's cleaning up his life. I think people would

677
00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:43,360
Speaker 1: move on if that last part wasn't and nothing whatsoever

678
00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:47,120
Speaker 1: affects the United States or my presidency or administration. And

679
00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:49,600
Speaker 1: you think, well, putting you know, the drugs and the

680
00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:52,520
Speaker 1: women and wine women in song aside, when you're when

681
00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:54,880
Speaker 1: you're being paid off, when your son is getting a

682
00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:59,239
Speaker 1: major payoff from a corrupt government, when you are you

683
00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:02,479
Speaker 1: then the vice president or the point person on US

684
00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:06,440
Speaker 1: relations with that government, to say nothing of Hunter Biden's

685
00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:09,520
Speaker 1: business dealings in China and elsewhere around the world. That

686
00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:12,080
Speaker 1: actually does affect the United States, and that does affect

687
00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:15,000
Speaker 1: your presidency. It very much does. And you look at

688
00:43:15,120 --> 00:43:19,560
Speaker 1: China and Hunters investments, where you know, Joe Biden is

689
00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:24,560
Speaker 1: now selling oil from our strategic petroleum reserve to China,

690
00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:28,719
Speaker 1: including Chinese state owned companies that Hunter's firm was a

691
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:33,800
Speaker 1: major investor and shareholder in. That's a big damn deal.

692
00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:36,640
Speaker 1: You know. The what it says in the laptop ten

693
00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:39,600
Speaker 1: percent for the big guy, meaning Joe Biden. On its face,

694
00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:46,239
Speaker 1: that screams corruption. Merrick Garland and this politicized DJ won't

695
00:43:46,280 --> 00:43:50,080
Speaker 1: investigate it. They won't, and what should have happened. They

696
00:43:50,120 --> 00:43:53,040
Speaker 1: need to appoint a special counsel because there's no credibility

697
00:43:53,040 --> 00:43:58,120
Speaker 1: of a fair and impartial investigation. And again I'm not

698
00:43:58,160 --> 00:44:01,719
Speaker 1: going to fault Joe for trying to defend his son

699
00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:05,719
Speaker 1: and trying to dismiss it. That's what any parent would do.

700
00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:10,239
Speaker 1: But there is a responsibility for a journalist actually to

701
00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:14,799
Speaker 1: have facts, like the question isn't so supposed to be

702
00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:19,200
Speaker 1: why are there so many Republican meanings. And that's basically

703
00:44:19,239 --> 00:44:22,799
Speaker 1: what CBS's question was. I thought that was they ought

704
00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:26,920
Speaker 1: to teach that question in journalism schools. Here's how to

705
00:44:27,040 --> 00:44:30,239
Speaker 1: flunk the job of a journalist. Now, before we get

706
00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:33,040
Speaker 1: to the mailbag, Senator, I do want a little bit

707
00:44:33,040 --> 00:44:35,120
Speaker 1: of a palate cleanser here. We have been dealing with

708
00:44:35,160 --> 00:44:37,600
Speaker 1: the leader of the free world, at least nominally our

709
00:44:37,680 --> 00:44:40,600
Speaker 1: own leader. I'd like to turn our attention to another

710
00:44:40,680 --> 00:44:45,399
Speaker 1: American network TV interview with another world leader. That would

711
00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:48,960
Speaker 1: be the Iranian president who was asked about his views

712
00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:54,080
Speaker 1: on the Holocaust. Do you believe the Holocaust happened, that

713
00:44:54,239 --> 00:45:02,560
Speaker 1: six million Jews were slaughtered massdia tarichi ye. Look, historical

714
00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:09,680
Speaker 1: events should be investigated by researchers and historians. There are

715
00:45:09,719 --> 00:45:12,560
Speaker 1: some signs that had happened. If so, they should allow

716
00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:15,600
Speaker 1: it to be investigated and researched. So you're not sure,

717
00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:19,879
Speaker 1: I'm getting that. You're not sure. What about Israel's right

718
00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:25,120
Speaker 1: to exist philistine? You see the people of Palestine or

719
00:45:25,160 --> 00:45:27,960
Speaker 1: the reality This is the right of the people of

720
00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:32,080
Speaker 1: Palestine who are forced to leave their houses in motherland.

721
00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:35,520
Speaker 1: The Americans are supporting this false regime there to take

722
00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:38,840
Speaker 1: root and be established. There not a ton of pushback

723
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:42,239
Speaker 1: from Leslie Stall there. What do you make of the

724
00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:47,840
Speaker 1: Iranian president's remarks? So, I think that is utterly disgraceful

725
00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:57,120
Speaker 1: on multiple levels. Let's start off, Raissi is a mass

726
00:45:57,200 --> 00:46:03,160
Speaker 1: murderer and a terrorist. He is directly responsible for enormous

727
00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:07,680
Speaker 1: number of murders of tortures. He has been one of

728
00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:11,280
Speaker 1: the most repressive figures in this horrific regime for years.

729
00:46:11,280 --> 00:46:15,120
Speaker 1: He was appointed by the Ayatola to that position despite

730
00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:21,279
Speaker 1: a horrific record of human rights abuses. Number Two, he

731
00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:23,680
Speaker 1: was allowed by the Biden administration to come to the

732
00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:25,960
Speaker 1: United States, come to New York, to the United Nations.

733
00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:29,040
Speaker 1: He should not have been. I've introduced legislation to block

734
00:46:29,160 --> 00:46:31,640
Speaker 1: him from coming. We should not be allowing terrorists and

735
00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:35,520
Speaker 1: mass murders into the United States. But the Biden administration,

736
00:46:35,960 --> 00:46:39,120
Speaker 1: every enemy of a world, every enemy of America, they

737
00:46:39,160 --> 00:46:42,320
Speaker 1: treat with weakness and appeasement. And this is yet another example.

738
00:46:43,360 --> 00:46:49,480
Speaker 1: Number three. It's particularly horrifying this interview right now. In

739
00:46:49,640 --> 00:46:54,600
Speaker 1: recent days, the world was stunned with the news that

740
00:46:54,719 --> 00:47:00,360
Speaker 1: a twenty two year old Iranian woman was captured the

741
00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:06,000
Speaker 1: religious police in Iran and was beaten to death for

742
00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:10,200
Speaker 1: the crime of not wearing a headscarf. She dared to

743
00:47:10,239 --> 00:47:13,480
Speaker 1: go outside and she wasn't covering her face the way

744
00:47:13,560 --> 00:47:18,080
Speaker 1: the Islamic radicals insist, and the religious police arrested her

745
00:47:18,160 --> 00:47:24,920
Speaker 1: and beat her to death. Within hours of that happening,

746
00:47:25,719 --> 00:47:31,360
Speaker 1: an American journalist on CBS Leslie Stall is sitting there compliantly,

747
00:47:31,600 --> 00:47:39,279
Speaker 1: bleeding like a sheep, wearing a headscarf. That's disgusting. Did

748
00:47:39,360 --> 00:47:44,800
Speaker 1: she ask about what happened? No? And then the final

749
00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:54,560
Speaker 1: bit to end with Ras engaging in Holocaust denial. Well,

750
00:47:54,800 --> 00:47:58,200
Speaker 1: historians should debate and examine to see if there's evidence

751
00:47:58,480 --> 00:48:02,000
Speaker 1: the Holocaust is one of, if not the most terrific

752
00:48:02,040 --> 00:48:06,680
Speaker 1: event in all of human history. The systematic extermination of

753
00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:11,080
Speaker 1: six million Jews an attempted genocide. You don't think there's evidence,

754
00:48:11,160 --> 00:48:15,480
Speaker 1: go to Auschwitz, go to the concentration camp, read the

755
00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:20,799
Speaker 1: diary of Anne Frank, examine the horror, and to c CBS,

756
00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:25,239
Speaker 1: oh okay, well that's that's of you. Yeah, oh okay,

757
00:48:25,480 --> 00:48:31,279
Speaker 1: And and dece to sit there while this monster spews

758
00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:42,040
Speaker 1: anti Semitic filth on CBS. There are not words to

759
00:48:42,120 --> 00:48:49,680
Speaker 1: describe the abdication of responsibility. Leslie Stall should be ashamed,

760
00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:54,200
Speaker 1: and CBS should be ashamed that they're willing to kiss

761
00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:57,920
Speaker 1: up to a monster and a tyrant. Not so much

762
00:48:57,920 --> 00:48:59,920
Speaker 1: for a palett cleanser, you know, I guess the President

763
00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:02,600
Speaker 1: of Iran generally is not not much of a palate cleanser.

764
00:49:02,719 --> 00:49:04,360
Speaker 1: Before we go, I know it's a long episode, but

765
00:49:04,520 --> 00:49:06,480
Speaker 1: I do want to get to some of our wonderful

766
00:49:06,520 --> 00:49:10,200
Speaker 1: listeners in the mail bag question from Andrew were the

767
00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:15,600
Speaker 1: Martha's Vineyard planes a good one time stunt or should

768
00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:19,960
Speaker 1: GOP governors keep up the migrant buses and flights to

769
00:49:20,200 --> 00:49:24,400
Speaker 1: left wing cities as a long term strategy? Keep it

770
00:49:24,480 --> 00:49:27,319
Speaker 1: up over and over and over again. As you know,

771
00:49:27,440 --> 00:49:30,000
Speaker 1: I introduced legislation to do this a year ago. I've

772
00:49:30,040 --> 00:49:33,560
Speaker 1: been calling on on Republicans to do this a year ago.

773
00:49:33,719 --> 00:49:38,520
Speaker 1: I'm very glad Greg Abbott and Ron De Santis took

774
00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:40,560
Speaker 1: my advice and carried it out. It was the right

775
00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:45,279
Speaker 1: thing to do. It's totally transformed the debate. But rich

776
00:49:45,440 --> 00:49:50,080
Speaker 1: leftist socialists lost their minds when fifty illegal immigrants showed

777
00:49:50,120 --> 00:49:52,400
Speaker 1: up at Martha's Vineyard tomorrow. We had to send one

778
00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:54,120
Speaker 1: hundred the next day we had to send two hundred

779
00:49:54,200 --> 00:49:58,960
Speaker 1: and five hundred and a thousand. The volume is so massive,

780
00:49:59,640 --> 00:50:02,000
Speaker 1: and and listen the reason to do it. I mean,

781
00:50:02,040 --> 00:50:04,839
Speaker 1: it has been amazing watching the media and all these

782
00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:08,120
Speaker 1: blue check mark activists losing their minds and they're saying, oh,

783
00:50:08,200 --> 00:50:11,520
Speaker 1: do Satis and Abbots are engaged in human trafficking. No,

784
00:50:11,880 --> 00:50:15,839
Speaker 1: it's a humanitarian crisis. It is not human trafficking. To

785
00:50:15,880 --> 00:50:19,360
Speaker 1: ask somebody, would you like to go to Martha's Vineyard,

786
00:50:19,400 --> 00:50:22,680
Speaker 1: I will fly you for free there. That's not called

787
00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:27,160
Speaker 1: human trafficking, despite all the idiots saying it is also

788
00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:33,439
Speaker 1: not cruel and inhumane to take someone to a billionaire's playground.

789
00:50:33,560 --> 00:50:36,279
Speaker 1: Martha's Vineyard is. I've actually never been, so I don't

790
00:50:36,320 --> 00:50:38,879
Speaker 1: really know what Martha's Vineyard is, but from everything I see,

791
00:50:38,920 --> 00:50:41,040
Speaker 1: it's a really fancy place that I know. The Obamas

792
00:50:41,040 --> 00:50:42,680
Speaker 1: have a twelve million dollar home there, so it's a

793
00:50:42,680 --> 00:50:45,479
Speaker 1: bunch of rich people and it's presumably really during nice.

794
00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:51,319
Speaker 1: The reason to send them there is it's about the

795
00:50:51,360 --> 00:50:55,160
Speaker 1: only thing that forces the corrupt corporate media to actually

796
00:50:55,200 --> 00:51:00,640
Speaker 1: cover what's happening, and it also shows the utter hypocrisy

797
00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:03,240
Speaker 1: we talked in the last podcast about how the county

798
00:51:03,280 --> 00:51:07,040
Speaker 1: executive in Martha's Vineyard when I proposed this legislation, said

799
00:51:07,040 --> 00:51:09,200
Speaker 1: they would welcome the illegal immigrants there. They wanted to

800
00:51:09,200 --> 00:51:11,120
Speaker 1: be a haven for them. And I didn't know what

801
00:51:11,160 --> 00:51:13,000
Speaker 1: I was talking about. There was no border crisis. As

802
00:51:13,000 --> 00:51:15,400
Speaker 1: soon as they showed up, Oh crap, they declared a crisis.

803
00:51:16,640 --> 00:51:22,120
Speaker 1: But additionally, it forces the Democrats and the media to

804
00:51:22,239 --> 00:51:26,080
Speaker 1: defend their incoherence. What did they do in Martha's Vineyard

805
00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:28,320
Speaker 1: within twenty four hours? They put them on buses and

806
00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:30,800
Speaker 1: shipped them away. Shipped them away to a military base.

807
00:51:31,239 --> 00:51:35,920
Speaker 1: You know. AOC tweeted out said, shout out to the

808
00:51:35,920 --> 00:51:40,160
Speaker 1: people of Massachusetts and the people of Martha's Vineyard for

809
00:51:40,320 --> 00:51:45,000
Speaker 1: demonstrating the very best of American values. And I did

810
00:51:45,040 --> 00:51:50,080
Speaker 1: something I don't do often. I retweeted AOC, I said, look, well,

811
00:51:50,080 --> 00:51:52,960
Speaker 1: what did Martha's Vineyard do? They deported them within twenty

812
00:51:52,960 --> 00:51:56,960
Speaker 1: four hours. I agree, let's emulate Martha's Vineyard. But the

813
00:51:57,120 --> 00:52:00,800
Speaker 1: very best of American values. I assumed that means Texas

814
00:52:00,800 --> 00:52:02,440
Speaker 1: can do the same thing, and we put them on

815
00:52:02,480 --> 00:52:04,759
Speaker 1: a bus and ship them back to where they came from.

816
00:52:04,760 --> 00:52:07,200
Speaker 1: Within twenty four hours. Can we get them out? Look,

817
00:52:08,840 --> 00:52:14,759
Speaker 1: the volume is crushing, and all of these self righteous

818
00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:20,920
Speaker 1: virtue signals are ignoring what is happening. This is human slavery.

819
00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:23,680
Speaker 1: To see lefties saying it was crueling in humane to

820
00:52:23,680 --> 00:52:25,720
Speaker 1: send them to Martha's vineyard. Now, you know what's crueling

821
00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:30,960
Speaker 1: in humane. Hundreds of thousands of children being abused and

822
00:52:31,080 --> 00:52:34,480
Speaker 1: sexually assaulted by human traffickers under Joe Biden. You know

823
00:52:34,520 --> 00:52:38,600
Speaker 1: what's crueling in humane. Thousands upon thousands of women being

824
00:52:38,680 --> 00:52:42,040
Speaker 1: raped by human traffickers under Joe Biden. You know what's

825
00:52:42,040 --> 00:52:46,440
Speaker 1: crueling in humane. Hundreds of immigrants abandoned to die in

826
00:52:46,480 --> 00:52:50,239
Speaker 1: the desert. Pregnant ladies, old people, children dead in the

827
00:52:50,280 --> 00:52:52,760
Speaker 1: desert week after week. You know what's crueling in humane.

828
00:52:53,280 --> 00:52:57,080
Speaker 1: Fifty three illegal immigrants dead and attractor trailer of heat

829
00:52:57,360 --> 00:52:59,600
Speaker 1: because of the human traffickers under Joe Biden. You know

830
00:52:59,600 --> 00:53:03,200
Speaker 1: what's cruel in humane. Over one hundred thousand people dying

831
00:53:03,440 --> 00:53:07,520
Speaker 1: of fentanol overdoses because of the chaos of Joe Biden's

832
00:53:07,520 --> 00:53:12,080
Speaker 1: open borders. You know what's crueling in humane. Thousands of

833
00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:16,280
Speaker 1: teenage boys working for the cartels in every city in America.

834
00:53:16,320 --> 00:53:18,759
Speaker 1: Because they owe thousands of dollars to the cartel. You

835
00:53:18,800 --> 00:53:22,040
Speaker 1: know what's crueling in humane? Thousands of teenage girls in

836
00:53:22,160 --> 00:53:25,840
Speaker 1: forced prostitution because they owe thousands of dollars to the cartel.

837
00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:29,160
Speaker 1: And you know what's crueling in humane. A corrupt media

838
00:53:29,200 --> 00:53:32,880
Speaker 1: that won't report on any of that, but they suddenly

839
00:53:32,920 --> 00:53:36,560
Speaker 1: notice when Buffy's tea time is disturbed at Martha's Vineyard.

840
00:53:36,719 --> 00:53:39,239
Speaker 1: We ought to keep doing that every damn day till

841
00:53:39,280 --> 00:53:45,399
Speaker 1: they've forced to cover the human slavery disaster that Joe

842
00:53:45,440 --> 00:53:50,840
Speaker 1: Biden is responsible. Here here one hundred percent agree with

843
00:53:50,880 --> 00:53:54,480
Speaker 1: the sentiment, I hope. I'm so glad that the governors,

844
00:53:54,520 --> 00:53:57,200
Speaker 1: some of the Republican governors, have taken the advice we

845
00:53:57,239 --> 00:53:59,000
Speaker 1: need a lot more of it. I totally agree we

846
00:53:59,040 --> 00:54:01,240
Speaker 1: need a lot more of this show, by the way,

847
00:54:01,320 --> 00:54:04,319
Speaker 1: but I unfortunately cannot stay. We've got to turn to

848
00:54:04,320 --> 00:54:07,040
Speaker 1: our friend Liz Wheeler on the cloak room. Liz, what

849
00:54:07,120 --> 00:54:09,719
Speaker 1: will you be talking about? Hi, Michael High, Senator. I

850
00:54:09,719 --> 00:54:12,400
Speaker 1: don't know about you, guys, but I feel super confident

851
00:54:12,560 --> 00:54:16,319
Speaker 1: after hearing those videos in Biden's mental capacity, in his

852
00:54:16,400 --> 00:54:19,360
Speaker 1: mental acuity, very confident in the fact that he's not

853
00:54:19,480 --> 00:54:25,240
Speaker 1: actively harming the American people with his impractical and unwise policies. Yikes.

854
00:54:25,840 --> 00:54:27,719
Speaker 1: Over on the cloak Room, we're going to talk about

855
00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:30,600
Speaker 1: something kind of exciting that happened just a couple days ago.

856
00:54:30,920 --> 00:54:34,359
Speaker 1: The Fifth Circuit Court issued a ruling on Big Tech

857
00:54:34,440 --> 00:54:37,440
Speaker 1: that might lead to a showdown at the Supreme Court.

858
00:54:37,760 --> 00:54:41,120
Speaker 1: Big Tech, of course, famous for banning conservatives based on

859
00:54:41,160 --> 00:54:45,880
Speaker 1: our viewpoints. The Fifth Circuit issued a ruling saying that

860
00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:51,520
Speaker 1: corporations do not have a free wheeling right to censor speech.

861
00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:54,160
Speaker 1: So we are going to discuss what exactly this means.

862
00:54:54,520 --> 00:54:56,400
Speaker 1: Is it going to reach the Supreme Court, how is

863
00:54:56,400 --> 00:54:58,839
Speaker 1: the Supreme Court going to rule, and what is the

864
00:54:58,880 --> 00:55:01,360
Speaker 1: implication of this across the country, not just in the

865
00:55:01,400 --> 00:55:05,239
Speaker 1: state of Texas where the original law emanated from. So

866
00:55:05,280 --> 00:55:07,720
