1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:16,159
Speaker 1: Mr Garbusch Off, tear down this wall. Either you're with

19
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,959
Speaker 1: We have much to discussed today. Obviously, gonna take a

20
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 1: trip down Memo Lane. You gotta get into the latest

21
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 1: on release the memo. Man I got. I got mixed emotions,

22
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 1: mixed feelings about what this is all gonna turn into.

23
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,840
Speaker 1: I'm seeing all this reporting, including right on Fox News,

24
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,759
Speaker 1: that it's about to happen, not like while I'm on air,

25
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:46,400
Speaker 1: although wouldn't that be interesting. Probably tomorrow, people are saying

26
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:52,960
Speaker 1: maybe Monday. As I have told people earlier today when

27
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,160
Speaker 1: I was on out Numbered on Fox News, which the

28
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 1: show I love doing. It's great show. It's really fun,

29
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 1: it's really uh good conversation, upbeat, really like it. Um,

30
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:05,000
Speaker 1: but that was earlier to then, and I just said, look,

31
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 1: there's there's not a there's not another option here other

32
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 1: than release the memo. There's no other Hey, what do

33
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 1: you to this point? I mean, this is this is

34
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,400
Speaker 1: like you're gonna turn this memo into the into the roswell,

35
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 1: you know, landings and aliens and stuff. You can't do that.

36
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:20,800
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, We've been talking about this for weeks. It's

37
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:23,960
Speaker 1: been a NonStop news cycle on the memo. But you

38
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 1: know what, Sorry America, think about what that message. I mean,

39
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,120
Speaker 1: it's actually gone to the point where it's almost comical.

40
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,799
Speaker 1: I know, it's about really serious stuff. Think about what

41
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,640
Speaker 1: the message would be that this is sending neither the

42
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 1: President nor the Congress really has the ability the right

43
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:49,680
Speaker 1: to tell the American people about what a subservient branch

44
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:53,560
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, subservient part of not branch part of the

45
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 1: government has been up to. Yeah, that's a good precedent

46
00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 1: to set to set. Let me tell you one of

47
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:05,600
Speaker 1: the things that most separates us from all these scary

48
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:08,240
Speaker 1: countries around the world. And people will talk about fascism

49
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,519
Speaker 1: and a police state somebody who knows something about how

50
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 1: intelligence works in this country, but also in other countries too.

51
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 1: One of the things about different intelligence agencies is they

52
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 1: spend a lot of time learning about what intelligence is

53
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:26,200
Speaker 1: like in other countries. Right, And here's a sign of

54
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:28,799
Speaker 1: a country that you've got to be concerned about. When

55
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 1: you're i think, when you're talking about liberty and rule

56
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 1: of law and civil rights and all that all that

57
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 1: good stuff. When the intelligence agencies or agency, if it's

58
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:45,840
Speaker 1: kind of one super agency, when they are accountable to

59
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 1: no one except the leader, and in fact, in many

60
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 1: ways are more powerful than the leader, then you've got

61
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:57,200
Speaker 1: a really bad situation going on. And what you will

62
00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 1: also see historically is that there are plenty of times

63
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 1: when whoever was running the intelligence agency of any given country,

64
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 1: And this is definitely in the in the twentieth century,

65
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 1: and that's when we really have had the whole notion

66
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 1: of a modern intelligence organization. Right before that, it was

67
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,520
Speaker 1: very different. And before you had mass communication and you know,

68
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 1: it was tough to be doing stuff at a certain

69
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:24,840
Speaker 1: speed and uh before you had phones, right before you

70
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:28,920
Speaker 1: had radio. Um. But you had people that would be

71
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 1: senior in the intelligence agency who would end up running

72
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 1: the country, right people that were the higher ups of

73
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 1: whatever the internal security service was, and they end up

74
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,360
Speaker 1: running the country. That's because they can amass so much

75
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 1: power because if they don't have any restrictions on the

76
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:48,839
Speaker 1: information they can get on people. Think of what that

77
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 1: means for their sway in politics, even if they don't

78
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 1: have elections, although you know a lot of countries have

79
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 1: elections that are for show. And you look at some

80
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 1: of the different stands for example, and you got, yeah,

81
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:08,960
Speaker 1: their elections, the one candidate wins percent of the vote

82
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 1: and has for the last thirty years. But there are elections.

83
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:13,880
Speaker 1: I always love that too. What's why not just go?

84
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,520
Speaker 1: You know, why stop at ninety eight or I just

85
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 1: want to maybe so they put some people on notice.

86
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 1: It's like, hey, maybe we could say later on that

87
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,040
Speaker 1: you were part of that naughty two percent that didn't

88
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 1: vote for the same guys running the country for twenty

89
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 1: or thirty years. The bottom line here, folks, is you

90
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:36,800
Speaker 1: can't have an intelligence and law enforcement apparatus that is

91
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 1: above the law and above people, above the people, we

92
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,640
Speaker 1: the people. You just can't do it. And this whole

93
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 1: conversation has, I think, on so much more damage, so

94
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 1: much more damage to our trust and faith and institutions

95
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,680
Speaker 1: then was necessary. Does anyone really think that the FBI

96
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,960
Speaker 1: doesn't have people who make mistakes? I also noticed that

97
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,200
Speaker 1: we're so focused in the f I. FBI is a

98
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:03,599
Speaker 1: subsidiary of the Department of Justice. This is all really

99
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:07,039
Speaker 1: d o J. And the d o J was run

100
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 1: by recently Loretta Lynch and before that Eric Holder. Anybody

101
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:15,760
Speaker 1: really think that they were running a shop that wasn't political.

102
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:18,480
Speaker 1: Come on, right, we all know, we're all we're all

103
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 1: big boys and girls here. We all know this. This

104
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: is not surprising. And I've been trying to avoid what

105
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:29,719
Speaker 1: the Democrats want us to do here, which is to

106
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 1: make this all about the institutions. Oh, they've been complaining

107
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 1: the institutions from the very beginning, and I always want

108
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:38,159
Speaker 1: to respond to them. In this instance, what could be

109
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:43,480
Speaker 1: a bigger abuse? I mean, if we're not worried about

110
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 1: the FBI, the d o J involving itself in a

111
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,479
Speaker 1: partisan fashion, or really in any fashion, and a presidential

112
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:54,279
Speaker 1: election hoping to turn it one way or the other

113
00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:58,960
Speaker 1: by using spying powers, If that doesn't worry us, what's

114
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,840
Speaker 1: the point of having an over site committee. I mean,

115
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 1: if Congress isn't going to use and and look I

116
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 1: think they have and they will and probably tomorrow we're

117
00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 1: gonna find out what's in this memo and everything else.

118
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:13,920
Speaker 1: But if they're not going to use their oversight powers

119
00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 1: for this, then what do they have oversight powers? Now,

120
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 1: let's let's all just keep it real here, let's not

121
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 1: get caught up in the nonsense. There is just, frankly,

122
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 1: no way that this memo was going to be suppressed,

123
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 1: That that was gonna be okay, that was never gonna

124
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 1: be okay. I've been trying to tell you all along here. Uh.

125
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:37,200
Speaker 1: And I actually went to Twitter today just so I

126
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 1: kind of had a written version of my prediction for

127
00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 1: what's gonna happen. You know what, We're gonna talk about

128
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:45,160
Speaker 1: some other stuff on the show too, because I'm sure

129
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 1: you start to get memo fatigue. I got memo fatigue,

130
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:50,520
Speaker 1: and one of the things that keeps me going with

131
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:52,560
Speaker 1: it it is just every time I want to move

132
00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 1: off the memo and talk to you. But you know,

133
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:56,240
Speaker 1: like we talked Cartel's North Korea, we cover a lot

134
00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 1: of ground near the economy clearly right. My latest s

135
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,360
Speaker 1: campades in the kitchen with cooking. I'll tell you about

136
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 1: that too later on a lot of things. Netflix shows

137
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:08,960
Speaker 1: action movie quotes. You know you listen. But every time

138
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:12,239
Speaker 1: I see a false narrative from the left about this memo,

139
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 1: I'm like, no, no, no, no, no, I'm not I

140
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 1: can't let them get away with it. I almost have

141
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:24,120
Speaker 1: a compulsion two shoot down their lies because it bothers me.

142
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 1: It really does bother me. And they've tried so many

143
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:34,720
Speaker 1: different dishonest and in some cases quite slimy tricks to

144
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,080
Speaker 1: either make the memo go away. You're making it's not

145
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 1: a big deal. I've written out what I think is

146
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:44,960
Speaker 1: going to happen. So here's my my memo prediction for tomorrow,

147
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:47,120
Speaker 1: and we'll see how accurate I am based on this.

148
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:52,440
Speaker 1: Number One, Fusion GPS dossier usage confirmed for FISA warrant.

149
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:54,800
Speaker 1: I think we will see the Fusion GPS played a

150
00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:57,800
Speaker 1: role here. Now we already think that that it will

151
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:01,680
Speaker 1: be confirmed, which is different. That is different, Okay. Number

152
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 1: two other unspecified things still kept classified, also part of

153
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 1: the warrant. Now I can't tell you what that is.

154
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:11,920
Speaker 1: I don't have access anymore, which is a good thing

155
00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 1: because if I did, I couldn't talk to you about

156
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:16,719
Speaker 1: any of this anymore. But that's I think gonna be

157
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:19,160
Speaker 1: a part of this as well, which then leads into

158
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:23,520
Speaker 1: number three. Democrats will argue that this is a tiny

159
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:27,800
Speaker 1: part of the overall picture. So you're gonna have the

160
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:32,080
Speaker 1: the GPS dossier Hillary APO was used by the spying

161
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:35,320
Speaker 1: apparatus at least in some level, in some way to

162
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,600
Speaker 1: look at Trump people. I think that will be confirmed tomorrow.

163
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:42,600
Speaker 1: These are my predictions. And then the Democrats will say, well,

164
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,480
Speaker 1: but those other stuff, and so therefore number three here

165
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 1: is that they will argue, this is a tiny part

166
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:49,680
Speaker 1: of the overall picture. What's the other stuff? Oh, I

167
00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 1: can't tell you that sources and methods, sources and methods.

168
00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:55,120
Speaker 1: The number four is going to be the the d

169
00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:58,319
Speaker 1: o J. However, to anybody who is being honest about

170
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:03,160
Speaker 1: this looks bad. And what I mean by that is

171
00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:08,680
Speaker 1: this was a presidential election. Everyone the the threshold, the

172
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:13,160
Speaker 1: bar or what should be needed to use the spying

173
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 1: apparatus of the United States government, and we're talking to

174
00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 1: high level stuff here, the threshold for using that against

175
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 1: a presidential campaign. You know, I remember, you know, when

176
00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:29,760
Speaker 1: I was working on the intelligence side that we got

177
00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:34,480
Speaker 1: so many lectures and ethics training and had legal repercussions

178
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:39,600
Speaker 1: and ramifications like you do not mess around on US

179
00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 1: soil with a B or C. You do not do

180
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:46,119
Speaker 1: these things, those things, And it was really and FISA

181
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:49,200
Speaker 1: is treated within the community at least it used to

182
00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:54,559
Speaker 1: be as highly sensitive, very close hold stuff. And you

183
00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:56,559
Speaker 1: you know, and if you ever were to have abused

184
00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 1: FISA in any way, it was not you were I mean,

185
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,720
Speaker 1: the least of your problems was gonna be that you

186
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:09,280
Speaker 1: were getting fired. Right, So, given that that the Department

187
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:12,520
Speaker 1: or Justice could have allowed this to happen, even if

188
00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 1: it is not immediately provable that this was just a

189
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:20,360
Speaker 1: political hit, on Trump. Based on what they released probably tomorrow,

190
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,839
Speaker 1: they're just gonna look like a combination d O J

191
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:30,280
Speaker 1: is gonna look incompetent and dishonest. Now, not the whole place,

192
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:33,080
Speaker 1: not everybody, but those individuals that were involved in this

193
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:38,320
Speaker 1: doesn't it does not pass the smell test that they

194
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:41,080
Speaker 1: would have done this that. Think about it this way. Everyone,

195
00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:43,280
Speaker 1: you're in the room, okay, and put yourself This is

196
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 1: a very useful exercise with any of these highly political

197
00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:50,719
Speaker 1: government cases stories that we've been talking about here. Put

198
00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:52,079
Speaker 1: yourself in the shoes. You're in the room, and so

199
00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:54,880
Speaker 1: and says, hey, so, I think you know, I've got

200
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,680
Speaker 1: a couple of sources that are saying something about Trump Russia.

201
00:11:57,800 --> 00:11:59,440
Speaker 1: By the way, that was out there in the open source, right,

202
00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:01,480
Speaker 1: there's a lot of people say, oh Trump and Russia,

203
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 1: and there's all these connections. I've even heard rumors with

204
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:08,920
Speaker 1: no factual basis, Oh Russia, organized crime. Trump. People just

205
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,800
Speaker 1: say this stuff. Right, it's a presidential campaign. You're sitting

206
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:13,760
Speaker 1: in the room and they go, hey, you know what,

207
00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:16,679
Speaker 1: I've got this guy who's doing work for the d

208
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 1: n C. Now maybe they didn't know that, but who

209
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 1: knows what they know we're finding that out. I've got

210
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:22,440
Speaker 1: this guy that was doing work for the d n

211
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:26,720
Speaker 1: C and and he's got some really really bombshell level

212
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:29,680
Speaker 1: stuff on Trump. Uh, why don't we just whyn we

213
00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:31,600
Speaker 1: just start tapping some phones and some people around Trump

214
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,839
Speaker 1: and see what's going on with that. That that would

215
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:39,000
Speaker 1: not send up the biggest, brightest red flags for any

216
00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:43,160
Speaker 1: honest government employee at that level within the d o

217
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:47,960
Speaker 1: J is mind boggling. It's just mind boggling. And so

218
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:50,520
Speaker 1: then that brings me to again playing our game here

219
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 1: of are you in the are you in the shoes

220
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:57,120
Speaker 1: of the government bureaucrat that praised me what they had

221
00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,600
Speaker 1: to know that this was bad and they did it anyway,

222
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:02,440
Speaker 1: probably because I thought Hillary would win. They get away

223
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:06,920
Speaker 1: with it. But also never forget that if they had

224
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:11,760
Speaker 1: ever gotten information during this surveillance that was truly game

225
00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:14,800
Speaker 1: over for Trump, it would have been game over for Trump.

226
00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:17,800
Speaker 1: It was a risk that they were taking too. They

227
00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 1: could have been heroes, the heroes of the hashtag resistance.

228
00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:24,160
Speaker 1: Oh and then number five on my list, so number

229
00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:27,680
Speaker 1: one was the Fusion GPS dossier confirmed. Number two other

230
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:32,319
Speaker 1: unspecified things also part of the five's activity number Three,

231
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:35,480
Speaker 1: Democrats will argue this a tiny part of the overall picture.

232
00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:38,760
Speaker 1: Four D O J top level will look bad. Five

233
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:40,679
Speaker 1: And this is the annoying part everyone. But I'm just

234
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 1: gonna tell you the Russia conspiracy theory lives on. It's

235
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:47,320
Speaker 1: not gonna go away based on this memo. But this

236
00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:49,439
Speaker 1: is a battle I think that the Democrats are about

237
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:52,760
Speaker 1: to lose. Is just a question how badly what kind

238
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:58,080
Speaker 1: of casualties, so to speak, does the Russia collusion conspiracy

239
00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:00,840
Speaker 1: narrative take once this memo is out there on the street,

240
00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,520
Speaker 1: and you know it could be tomorrow, which I mean, well,

241
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:07,719
Speaker 1: a very interesting freestyle Friday. I mean tomorrow night. You're

242
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:09,880
Speaker 1: always welcome to call with action movie quotes. But things

243
00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,240
Speaker 1: could get things could get feisty tomorrow night on this

244
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 1: radio show if we got a memo to work with.

245
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:17,920
Speaker 1: So there is that I see some lines lit. Do

246
00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:20,160
Speaker 1: feel free to call in. We've got lines open here

247
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:22,360
Speaker 1: in the Freedom Hunt. We've got a lot more to discuss.

248
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:26,680
Speaker 1: Talk about Trump's visit to West Virginia today. Also, maybe

249
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:30,400
Speaker 1: I'll get to this, Uh, this teacher on California, he's

250
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 1: just saying idiotic, terrible stuff about the military, you know,

251
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 1: they're there're really only a few things left in the

252
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 1: country that you you publicly degrade at your peril, no

253
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,200
Speaker 1: matter who you are, there are only a few things left,

254
00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:48,200
Speaker 1: you know. Unfortunately, the military is still one of them.

255
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:52,800
Speaker 1: So I can't imagine how anybody could be so thoughtless

256
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:54,880
Speaker 1: and so dumb. But we might get into a little

257
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 1: bit of a discussion there as well, because I want to.

258
00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:58,760
Speaker 1: I want to address some of the idiotic points that

259
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 1: were made. Um and I got a whole lot of

260
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:03,480
Speaker 1: stuff talking about, so when he had a quick break,

261
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:15,120
Speaker 1: and we'll be right back. The neat media is part

262
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:18,840
Speaker 1: of the deep state. The elite media group has survived

263
00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:23,400
Speaker 1: by being in collusion with the senior bureaucracy, the City

264
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 1: of Washington, the senior reporters, the senior bureaucrats, the senior lobbyists.

265
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,240
Speaker 1: They all hang out together, They all talked to each other,

266
00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:33,640
Speaker 1: they all compare notes when they get to read this.

267
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,760
Speaker 1: What the American people need to understand is that the

268
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:42,120
Speaker 1: Obama administration, in a series of steps that clearly violated

269
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:46,120
Speaker 1: the law, tried to both protect Hillary Clinton and tried

270
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:51,200
Speaker 1: to destroy Donald Trump, and both actions were illegal. Uh

271
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 1: and we're now in a situation, I believe where you're

272
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 1: gonna see a requirement in the near future for an

273
00:15:56,600 --> 00:16:01,040
Speaker 1: independent council literally to clean out the senior FBI and

274
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:04,520
Speaker 1: the senior Justice Department and to go after people who

275
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 1: have left office who were part of the Obama team

276
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:10,680
Speaker 1: that was so clearly violating the law. That's former Speaker

277
00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:13,000
Speaker 1: new Gingrich. Obviously, I know you all know that. But

278
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,680
Speaker 1: just to give the man credit for his words, I

279
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 1: agree with everything he said except this I am not

280
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:23,520
Speaker 1: clear on. And I think this might and I'm trying

281
00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:28,240
Speaker 1: to be responsible and how I say they're respectful and

282
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:30,000
Speaker 1: how I say this, I don't think they broke the law.

283
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 1: That doesn't mean that they didn't do something really bad.

284
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:37,200
Speaker 1: But just hear me out here, when we're talking about

285
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:41,960
Speaker 1: not bringing if we're talking about the FBI and the

286
00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:46,000
Speaker 1: d o J not bringing charges against Hillary, that's not

287
00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 1: breaking the law. That is refusing to enforce the law

288
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:53,280
Speaker 1: for political reasons. Not the same thing Hillary broke the law. Yes,

289
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:55,760
Speaker 1: So if he's talking about Hillary, no question she broke

290
00:16:55,800 --> 00:17:01,000
Speaker 1: the law. But the whole Comie McCabe apparatus, they might

291
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:04,000
Speaker 1: be guilty of ethics violations. I think they certainly are

292
00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:08,080
Speaker 1: guilty of ethics violations in their duties at the FBI,

293
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:12,280
Speaker 1: but official misconduct maybe you could get them for that,

294
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:16,000
Speaker 1: for not unless you get some real clear evidence of

295
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,680
Speaker 1: you know, I mean, violating the Hatch Act. I mean,

296
00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:22,920
Speaker 1: you're starting to stretch here, right, So let's I want

297
00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:25,480
Speaker 1: to keep our expectations in line with what is possible,

298
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:29,159
Speaker 1: with what is likely to be, which is what is

299
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:31,280
Speaker 1: likely to happen, and not just what sounds good or

300
00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:34,360
Speaker 1: makes us feel good. And then on the spying portion

301
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:38,440
Speaker 1: of this, laws that may have been broken. Again, I'm

302
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 1: speaking generally here, and I can't I don't know if

303
00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:45,639
Speaker 1: if Newt was referring to specific law breaking or what

304
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:49,040
Speaker 1: specific law breaking is referring to. But here's what needs

305
00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:55,280
Speaker 1: to be kept in mind. If the FBI used information

306
00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:58,280
Speaker 1: for a FISA warrant that was real, they did not lie,

307
00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:01,800
Speaker 1: they did not falsify, but they decided to use open

308
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:05,160
Speaker 1: source or non classified information in the case of Fusion

309
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:08,400
Speaker 1: GPS to get a warrant and went through the appropriate processes.

310
00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:12,960
Speaker 1: That's an abuse of power. But and as you know,

311
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,520
Speaker 1: I've talked to former Prosecutor Andy McCarthy, who we all

312
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:18,040
Speaker 1: know in respect here on the show, and he agrees

313
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:19,600
Speaker 1: with me on this, that's an abuse of power, but

314
00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 1: that's not No one's going to prison for that, So

315
00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:26,440
Speaker 1: we shouldn't set our expectations beyond what is likely here.

316
00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:30,400
Speaker 1: Prison for leaking, Yes, that's a crime, but who did

317
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:35,800
Speaker 1: the leaking, We don't know, we have some guesses. Also, generally,

318
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:41,560
Speaker 1: very hard to prove a leak, unless somebody's like, hey,

319
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 1: here's any I'm sending an email with, like, here's that

320
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:45,399
Speaker 1: classified thing that I'm not supposed to tell you what.

321
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:48,639
Speaker 1: Some people do do that, But generally, if it's a

322
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:52,360
Speaker 1: leak to a reporter and it comes from inside the government,

323
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:58,000
Speaker 1: because usually information is widely disseminated enough that you can't

324
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:01,960
Speaker 1: really narrow it down and anyway, So I just would

325
00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:04,440
Speaker 1: note that right now there's a lot of attention, a

326
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:07,080
Speaker 1: lot of fervor around the issue of the memo and

327
00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:11,040
Speaker 1: the release of the memo, very very unlikely that anyone

328
00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:14,880
Speaker 1: is going to prison unless I am missing a statute.

329
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 1: And if any of you out there are lawyers and

330
00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:18,240
Speaker 1: you think I'm I'm missing it, let me know any

331
00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:21,359
Speaker 1: of your prosecutors. Although prosecutors tend to be KG about

332
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:26,720
Speaker 1: calling into political talk shows unless they're former prosecutors. Uh,

333
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:30,480
Speaker 1: I don't see it. I don't see criminal charges coming

334
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:34,439
Speaker 1: from this. This is a massive political scandal, and I

335
00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:38,399
Speaker 1: think the only remedy will be for we the people

336
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 1: to take a political action in response to it, and

337
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 1: also to fire a bunch of bumps that needs to

338
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:47,399
Speaker 1: happen to it. But and that's already started to happen.

339
00:19:47,880 --> 00:20:00,879
Speaker 1: We got more to stay with me. He's holding the

340
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:05,919
Speaker 1: line for America. Buck Sexton is back, but spoken to

341
00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:09,280
Speaker 1: a number of sources who have said that McCabe had

342
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:13,680
Speaker 1: actually asked members of the FBI um an FBI official

343
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,680
Speaker 1: actually to alter the three O two whether the three

344
00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:19,479
Speaker 1: O two's, those are the witness interviews that the FBI

345
00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:22,639
Speaker 1: conducts with the witnesses. There was one person in particular

346
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:27,280
Speaker 1: that they believe McCabe had asked the FBI agents to

347
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:28,960
Speaker 1: alter the three O two s. And I think this

348
00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:31,920
Speaker 1: is significant. It doesn't mean that they altered the three

349
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:33,880
Speaker 1: O twos, but even the fact that if they were

350
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:38,480
Speaker 1: asked allegedly, if this actually happened, that is a huge violation,

351
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:42,800
Speaker 1: huge violation. And another very important question here is when

352
00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:47,280
Speaker 1: the warrant was issued, who kept reauthorizing the warrant over

353
00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:50,560
Speaker 1: and over again, as her friend Sarah Carter, she's a

354
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:53,960
Speaker 1: Fox News contributors here on Shawn Show a lot at

355
00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:58,560
Speaker 1: nine pm, and she's pointing out that if they did

356
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:02,560
Speaker 1: change if if people in the fb I changed official records,

357
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:05,440
Speaker 1: if that was going on, then you are getting into

358
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:10,800
Speaker 1: criminal territory. Can't do that. That's not something that's on

359
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:14,480
Speaker 1: the list of Oh, yeah, sure you can. You can

360
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:19,000
Speaker 1: do this, and then you'll be uh, you'll just be fired. No, no, no.

361
00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:22,280
Speaker 1: You cannot change witness statements, you cannot tamper with evidence.

362
00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:25,760
Speaker 1: So we'll have to see that may be a part

363
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:29,760
Speaker 1: of this too. I can't imagine there are any huge

364
00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:33,159
Speaker 1: surprises in this memo because if there were, I have

365
00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:34,520
Speaker 1: a sense that they would have leaked. That's why I

366
00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:37,040
Speaker 1: think the fusion GPS component is the one thing that

367
00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:41,919
Speaker 1: is likely to be confirmed in it. But speaking of

368
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:49,600
Speaker 1: criminal sentencing and situations, the Mueller team, it's just hit

369
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:53,240
Speaker 1: the hit the wires today. Special Counsel Robert Mueller's team

370
00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 1: is postponing the sentencing of former National Security advisor and

371
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:03,240
Speaker 1: and general or decades Mike Flynn. They say they're doing

372
00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:07,480
Speaker 1: this because of the status of the investigation, and that's

373
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:10,560
Speaker 1: got people asking questions about what this means for Russia, right,

374
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:14,879
Speaker 1: the Russia prope Russia. Ah, here's what I think about this.

375
00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:23,199
Speaker 1: I believe that Flynn should be pardoned. I'm sorry, I'm oh,

376
00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:25,119
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I'm not sorry actually because I'm saying I

377
00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:28,480
Speaker 1: think you should be pardoned. But this is not a

378
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:32,520
Speaker 1: this is not justice. It is not justice for General

379
00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:36,480
Speaker 1: Flynn to be facing any kind of confinement. I get

380
00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:38,800
Speaker 1: a sense here that his deal probably I don't know,

381
00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 1: but he's cooperated and they're extending him here there. They

382
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,920
Speaker 1: want to get more cooperation from him. But I think

383
00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:50,760
Speaker 1: Flynn knows that he can cooperate without any damage to

384
00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:53,480
Speaker 1: his honor or anything, because there's when it comes to

385
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:55,800
Speaker 1: Russia collusion, it's nothing for him to cooperate on. There's

386
00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 1: nothing here. So sure he'll answer whatever questions they've got.

387
00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:02,679
Speaker 1: He'll he'll be as helpful as he possibly can. And

388
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 1: that to me, this this signals and I'm reading in

389
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:10,159
Speaker 1: between the lines here, but to me, extending out the

390
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:12,680
Speaker 1: sentencing of Flynn meaning waiting before you see what the

391
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:16,240
Speaker 1: Flynn sentence is is just Mueller buy more time to

392
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:21,600
Speaker 1: have Flynn at least the prospect of Flynn in the

393
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:24,760
Speaker 1: background to sweat somebody, so to speak, here, to help

394
00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:30,280
Speaker 1: put the pressure on someone. So that is a reason

395
00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:33,560
Speaker 1: that you would see the Flynn sentencing extended a bit longer.

396
00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:36,600
Speaker 1: But I mean, come on, you lied about a non

397
00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:41,200
Speaker 1: crime the FBI, what's the real damage here? Maybe they're

398
00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:43,439
Speaker 1: gonna say no, this is what might come up. The

399
00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:45,639
Speaker 1: only way I think you see Flynn not getting pardoned

400
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:49,760
Speaker 1: by the president is if there's no jail time, still

401
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:52,639
Speaker 1: would have a felony on his record, so means he

402
00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:55,119
Speaker 1: can't uh well, I guess it depends on the state right,

403
00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:58,399
Speaker 1: But can't vote, can't on a firearm, all kinds of

404
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:04,320
Speaker 1: problems that come with felony, colony record. But we'll see

405
00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:08,800
Speaker 1: if Trump is willing to pardon him. I mean, you

406
00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:11,640
Speaker 1: can imagine for me, it's the right thing to do.

407
00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:17,000
Speaker 1: It also would have the little added wonderful bonus of

408
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:20,040
Speaker 1: making liberals completely lose their minds. I mean, it would

409
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:24,040
Speaker 1: be think about it, twenty four hours. Oh my gosh,

410
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:29,679
Speaker 1: the constitution has been lit on fire. But this is

411
00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:33,280
Speaker 1: the president's constitutional prerogative. He has. He absolutely has the

412
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 1: There is no person who can say that the President

413
00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:40,359
Speaker 1: does not have the authority to pardon Michael Flynn. He

414
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:45,680
Speaker 1: absolutely positively does. But they're still gonna say, oh my gosh,

415
00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:48,120
Speaker 1: the rule of laws. But it doesn't matter. They don't

416
00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:50,560
Speaker 1: even care. They just hate Trump. This is all nonsense.

417
00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:54,320
Speaker 1: I mean, the arguments they've been making against the memo

418
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:57,880
Speaker 1: release have just been laughable. I'm seeing people get all

419
00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:00,719
Speaker 1: all sanctimonious, but all sources am not. Though some people's

420
00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:02,639
Speaker 1: lives will be in dangerous, this is not. I I

421
00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:05,320
Speaker 1: assure you, there's nothing that's gonna come out of this

422
00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:07,159
Speaker 1: new Nois memo that you're gonna be like, oh wow,

423
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:11,280
Speaker 1: I'm glad I'm not that guy. You don't want to Well,

424
00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:14,639
Speaker 1: maybe in terms of FBI people's careers, but not like

425
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:19,440
Speaker 1: a safety issue. So the arguments have been made, I

426
00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:22,200
Speaker 1: think they've been made in bad faith, but they still

427
00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:24,440
Speaker 1: they still got Flynn on the hook. Here. See if

428
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:28,879
Speaker 1: they can extend this out a little bit. I wonder,

429
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:30,959
Speaker 1: what do we get a sense here of what his?

430
00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:35,600
Speaker 1: What I'm trying to see what his? Yeah, here we go.

431
00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:37,560
Speaker 1: They don't want to tell the judge it on Fox

432
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:40,520
Speaker 1: News this to sentence Flynn until they can tell the

433
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:45,439
Speaker 1: judge that he helped in the case and Flynn, if

434
00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:47,320
Speaker 1: Flim were ever asked test find a trial, he would

435
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:50,800
Speaker 1: be a better witness if still facing the prospect of sentencing.

436
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,320
Speaker 1: So they're just holding us over him. And this is

437
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:56,520
Speaker 1: why I really have always resented this notion that there's

438
00:25:56,560 --> 00:26:00,600
Speaker 1: no cost really to this investigation that you know, we

439
00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:02,560
Speaker 1: were just trying to get at the truth here. People's

440
00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:05,680
Speaker 1: lives are being ruined. You know, we sit here, folks,

441
00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:07,720
Speaker 1: how many times we have to go through this? Now,

442
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:09,880
Speaker 1: we got this with the Trump administration. The same thing

443
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:17,000
Speaker 1: happened with the whole uh plaime leak fiasco. They knew,

444
00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:19,240
Speaker 1: they knew who the leaker was. The leaker, it was

445
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:21,720
Speaker 1: an accident and he did not intend to leak anything

446
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:23,960
Speaker 1: on purpose, and they agreed with that, and it was

447
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:26,240
Speaker 1: just that, look, and that does happen. I've said before,

448
00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:30,040
Speaker 1: classified accidentally does slip out. Sometimes that does happen. I'm

449
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:32,120
Speaker 1: not saying it's okay, but it happens. And that's taken

450
00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:35,080
Speaker 1: into account when someone's going to be punished for it.

451
00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:37,680
Speaker 1: It doesn't happen a hundred times on an unsecured server,

452
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,080
Speaker 1: and you know, over and over and over again, and

453
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:46,840
Speaker 1: nobody knows what Hillary style, but it does happen. But

454
00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:50,200
Speaker 1: that was all just to get Cheney. Here we are

455
00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:54,840
Speaker 1: again that we had one Republican administrator, the last Republican administration,

456
00:26:56,040 --> 00:27:01,080
Speaker 1: they managed to create this false story to get a

457
00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:04,639
Speaker 1: special counsel going, and they almost they almost took down

458
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:06,360
Speaker 1: the Vice president with it. That was what they're trying

459
00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:09,280
Speaker 1: to do. And now we've got another one. You'll notice

460
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:12,320
Speaker 1: no special counsel during the Obama years, despite all the

461
00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:15,199
Speaker 1: stuff that we could have looked into more there, Man,

462
00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:17,040
Speaker 1: I would have liked the special council just on fast

463
00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:21,600
Speaker 1: and furious. No one even really talks about it anymore. Yeah,

464
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:23,480
Speaker 1: you know, let's just let's just start a federal government

465
00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:27,520
Speaker 1: program where we where we tell gun dealers to sell

466
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:31,399
Speaker 1: guns illegally two people that we know we're going to

467
00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:33,719
Speaker 1: then make their way down to the cartels. Oh that's right,

468
00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:38,080
Speaker 1: who killed thirty thousand people last year? No special counsel

469
00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:40,679
Speaker 1: for that, right, people are dying a border patrol agent dive,

470
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:44,560
Speaker 1: but no no special counsel there? Why, Oh, that's right,

471
00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:49,760
Speaker 1: because Eric Holder was running the Justice Department. I brought

472
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:52,919
Speaker 1: this up today when they're asking about how oh Trump passed.

473
00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:57,040
Speaker 1: Did Trump asked if if McCabe was on his team

474
00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:03,000
Speaker 1: or is her on his team? Eric Older publicly proclaimed

475
00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:07,160
Speaker 1: that he was president this is he was President Obama's wingman,

476
00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:10,560
Speaker 1: and then you'll be working very closely together. You know,

477
00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:12,919
Speaker 1: they can't have it both ways. Is the Department of

478
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:22,080
Speaker 1: Justice a a subservience political organism too? The executive branch

479
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:25,119
Speaker 1: or is it its own branch of government? They can't

480
00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:29,160
Speaker 1: keep shifting the storyline. I mean they do, but it's

481
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:31,840
Speaker 1: not fair, it's not right. It is dishonest for them

482
00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:33,760
Speaker 1: to keep shifting the storyline. And that's what we've seen

483
00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 1: going on here. Find it very, uh, very disconcerting that

484
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:43,800
Speaker 1: this is in fact where we are with it. And man,

485
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:45,280
Speaker 1: I just want them to I just want them to

486
00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:48,080
Speaker 1: give us this this frigging memo. You know, I've had enough.

487
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:50,720
Speaker 1: I've had I don't if I have to see one

488
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:54,400
Speaker 1: more headline on SENNA, one more thing from Adam Schiff.

489
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:59,480
Speaker 1: You know, are so bad that guy. This is what

490
00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:03,360
Speaker 1: the Democrats put up there for us too to fight against.

491
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:05,840
Speaker 1: It makes it makes the job of getting annoyed with

492
00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:09,440
Speaker 1: their lies a little bit easier because these are not

493
00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:11,680
Speaker 1: some of these democrats that are making the case, and

494
00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:15,080
Speaker 1: these are not likable peoples, are not compelling personalities, that's

495
00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:18,400
Speaker 1: for sure. Ron in Alaska, you got thoughts, I got time.

496
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:22,040
Speaker 1: What's up? Hey? How are you doing? Buck Shield? Tie?

497
00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:27,040
Speaker 1: She'll tiey, buddy. I'm good. Listen. I believe this goes

498
00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:30,479
Speaker 1: back to my high school days, but in in history.

499
00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:33,280
Speaker 1: But I told my teacher back then that there has

500
00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:37,320
Speaker 1: been a government within our government since the JFK assassination

501
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:41,960
Speaker 1: and it hasn't changed since in all these years. And

502
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:46,920
Speaker 1: it's my belief that the president should go and get

503
00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:50,040
Speaker 1: either a point or a special prosc and purge all

504
00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:53,840
Speaker 1: these FBI, d O J possibly looking in S A,

505
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:57,040
Speaker 1: passibly looking at C I A, and and get rid

506
00:29:57,040 --> 00:30:00,240
Speaker 1: of the people at the top levels that uh where

507
00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:04,200
Speaker 1: the corruption lies. Because this a lot of these are

508
00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:07,560
Speaker 1: Obama holdovers and and he really should have had em

509
00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:11,000
Speaker 1: purged when he took over, but I guess it couldn't happen.

510
00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:14,400
Speaker 1: I don't know why. But but at any rate, h

511
00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:17,960
Speaker 1: the corruption and the lies that are going on in

512
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:21,880
Speaker 1: Washington right now, the American voters better wake up, and

513
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:25,040
Speaker 1: I'm telling them they'd better wake up, because if we

514
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:29,720
Speaker 1: continue the way we're going, we're gonna lose this country. Uh.

515
00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:36,200
Speaker 1: We we have people that that are not they're so

516
00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:39,320
Speaker 1: corrupt that that that they have no allegiance to the

517
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:42,520
Speaker 1: country anymore, and and they're willing to do anything that

518
00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:46,280
Speaker 1: they want to obtain their goals. Well, it's definitely true.

519
00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:47,800
Speaker 1: There are people with a lot of power in our

520
00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:49,920
Speaker 1: government ron who are gonna We're gonna do what they

521
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:52,400
Speaker 1: can do. They'll they'll do what they can to hurt

522
00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:55,360
Speaker 1: the country if it means that they get to inflict

523
00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:57,520
Speaker 1: their political wishes on us in some way. Thank you

524
00:30:57,520 --> 00:31:00,960
Speaker 1: for calling it from Alaska, my friend shield Side. Uh,

525
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:02,880
Speaker 1: we got a lot more to get into here. My friends.

526
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:06,560
Speaker 1: Talk a bit about Trump's speech today in West Virginia.

527
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:09,960
Speaker 1: We'll discuss that and uh, and a whole lot more.

528
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:28,120
Speaker 1: So stay right there. So comey, formerly FBI director just

529
00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:30,240
Speaker 1: put out a tweet before I came on air. Here's

530
00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:34,880
Speaker 1: what it says. All should appreciate the FBI speaking up.

531
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:39,160
Speaker 1: I wish more of our leaders would, but take heart.

532
00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:43,240
Speaker 1: American history shows that in the long run, weasels and

533
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:46,360
Speaker 1: liars never hold the field, so long as good people

534
00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:49,680
Speaker 1: stand up. Not a lot of schools or streets named

535
00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:57,600
Speaker 1: for Joe McCarthy. Okay, uh, you know, call me the guru. UM,

536
00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:00,280
Speaker 1: explain to me who who are the weasels and liars? Year?

537
00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:02,600
Speaker 1: So as he saying, is he saying the president's a

538
00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:04,479
Speaker 1: weasel or a liar? Is that? Is that what's going on?

539
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:07,240
Speaker 1: I feel like he is do we all do we

540
00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:09,680
Speaker 1: all think that we can move past? Oh Comey, he's

541
00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:13,880
Speaker 1: he's not a partisan player. He's not trust me, he's been.

542
00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:15,880
Speaker 1: He just does what's best for Comey all the time.

543
00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:18,400
Speaker 1: I remember, rich lawyer. Stop thinking of it as an

544
00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:20,800
Speaker 1: FBI Guy's not an FBI guy. He's a rich lawyer.

545
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:25,479
Speaker 1: All right. That changes things very very quickly, I believe.

546
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:31,280
Speaker 1: Justin in Winston Salem, North Carolina, what's up? Justin? Hey?

547
00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:34,480
Speaker 1: How's it going? But I'm good. Yeah, I just wanted

548
00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:39,240
Speaker 1: to make a comment regarding your last caller there from Alaska. UM,

549
00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:42,720
Speaker 1: I'm probably as far away from him as uh as

550
00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:45,840
Speaker 1: he is from me. I'm from Wednesday of North Carolina.

551
00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:48,080
Speaker 1: I'm twenty nine years old, and uh, well, I just

552
00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:49,880
Speaker 1: wanted to let him know that the American people have

553
00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:53,960
Speaker 1: woken up. We woke up last year when we voted

554
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:57,560
Speaker 1: Donald Trump end office. Uh we need to change, and uh,

555
00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:02,479
Speaker 1: well he's the first start. Problem is we can, you know,

556
00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:06,040
Speaker 1: go about this process of special prosecutors and all that,

557
00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:09,760
Speaker 1: but nothing ever happens to the Democrats, you know, And

558
00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:12,480
Speaker 1: I think it's a big problem. So I mean, what

559
00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:17,200
Speaker 1: do we have to do to really prosecute the Democrats?

560
00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:20,160
Speaker 1: I mean, I'll be all these high ranking officials and

561
00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:24,000
Speaker 1: all that, and they seem to just scathe off and

562
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:28,440
Speaker 1: you know, skip sentences and uh, really get away with all,

563
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:30,800
Speaker 1: you know, justin I don't think I'm being I don't

564
00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:35,120
Speaker 1: think I'm being uh, you know, what's the word. I'm trying.

565
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:36,720
Speaker 1: I don't think I have tunnel vision here when I

566
00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:40,840
Speaker 1: say that, I don't ever see Republicans playing the game

567
00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:43,320
Speaker 1: quite the same way that Democrats do with this stuff.

568
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:46,600
Speaker 1: I've Saturday before and told you about all the different,

569
00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:52,480
Speaker 1: very clearly politically motivated prosecutions of top level Republicans across

570
00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:59,000
Speaker 1: the country. I've gone on the list, right, Rick Perry, Um,

571
00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:05,080
Speaker 1: Chris See, Scott Walker McDonald, former governor of Virginia. I mean,

572
00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:09,320
Speaker 1: these are all political prosecutions, and they all went nowhere,

573
00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:11,359
Speaker 1: by the way, except for McDonald. The Supreme Court had

574
00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:14,239
Speaker 1: to reverse that because it was such a stretch to

575
00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:17,200
Speaker 1: get him on corruption. And you see the other side

576
00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:19,880
Speaker 1: of it here, like it just doesn't they don't. The

577
00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:21,960
Speaker 1: game isn't played the same way. And I don't really

578
00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:23,960
Speaker 1: have an answer for that other than start to say

579
00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:28,920
Speaker 1: that I just think that democrats power is the power

580
00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:31,640
Speaker 1: is the reason for the existence of the Democrat Party.

581
00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:34,960
Speaker 1: It's not it's not a sense of shared principle. It's

582
00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:40,640
Speaker 1: larger state and the emotional trajectory of the people that

583
00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:43,160
Speaker 1: call themselves Democrats at any point in time. But I

584
00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:45,040
Speaker 1: don't have a clear answer for other than I see

585
00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:48,360
Speaker 1: it too, man, I cannot Why do we not have

586
00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:51,160
Speaker 1: a special counsel under Obama? Never even discussed, really, right,

587
00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:54,200
Speaker 1: it just never happened. We had a special counsel under Bush,

588
00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:57,839
Speaker 1: we have a special counsel under Trump. And people say, well,

589
00:34:57,960 --> 00:35:00,000
Speaker 1: we have a special counselor to Clinton because we need

590
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:03,080
Speaker 1: needed one, or we at least need an investigation. I mean,

591
00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:06,400
Speaker 1: the guy was doing all kinds of flagrantly illegal and

592
00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:09,840
Speaker 1: improper stuff, so and not like, oh, maybe we'll find something.

593
00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:12,600
Speaker 1: We keep investigating. We know what he did, Andy Loddon

594
00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:14,480
Speaker 1: and growth then he got away with it. So I mean,

595
00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:17,040
Speaker 1: and that's our political history for the last twenty plus years. Right,

596
00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:19,360
Speaker 1: So this is scary stuff. But justin you're right, we

597
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:23,399
Speaker 1: woke up. We uh, we defeated the Hillary machine and

598
00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:27,680
Speaker 1: against all odds and as it seems now against Stephen

599
00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:29,560
Speaker 1: the wishes of some of the deep state of the

600
00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:32,040
Speaker 1: d o J. Thanks for calling your brother. Good to

601
00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:35,000
Speaker 1: talk to you from North Carolina. I appreciate it. Uh,

602
00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:40,920
Speaker 1: let's talk Larry in Johnsville, Ohio? Was it Larry? All right? Buck?

603
00:35:41,120 --> 00:35:44,000
Speaker 1: Enjoy your show, enjoy your calls. Larry. What's going on?

604
00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:48,080
Speaker 1: I got a couple comments about the state of the

605
00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:52,560
Speaker 1: Union address. I think you're either be a thorough investigation

606
00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:58,040
Speaker 1: by the c I, a FBI, a BC. Whoever whoever

607
00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:03,560
Speaker 1: scorted super glue on all of them democratic seats had

608
00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:06,960
Speaker 1: to be prosecuted. It is mean to spread all that

609
00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:11,640
Speaker 1: super glow. And it's not environmentally friendly either, that's true.

610
00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:19,960
Speaker 1: And one another observation, Uh, somebody I had to send

611
00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:26,600
Speaker 1: Nancy Pulski some more polly grip because I think she

612
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:32,960
Speaker 1: was having trouble with her dangers. Either that or depends

613
00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:37,120
Speaker 1: was righting up winter. She did not look happy. I

614
00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:39,080
Speaker 1: will agree that she did not look happy at that

615
00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:43,160
Speaker 1: state of the Union. Larry and Larry, yes, sir, and

616
00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:49,560
Speaker 1: that new Supreme Court just was that him or a

617
00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:52,279
Speaker 1: statue of course which I don't know. Did he not

618
00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:57,400
Speaker 1: stand up or something? He nothing? I didn't see that,

619
00:36:57,480 --> 00:37:00,680
Speaker 1: but okay, I'll write him a strongly worded Larry. Thanks

620
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:02,840
Speaker 1: for calling it from Ohio, my friend Shields. It was

621
00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:05,840
Speaker 1: like Larry adds a special flavor to the show. I appreciate.

622
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:11,359
Speaker 1: Here from Barry down in Biloxi, Mississippi. What's up, Barry? Hey,

623
00:37:11,400 --> 00:37:13,000
Speaker 1: what how are you doing? I'm good man, thank you

624
00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:15,840
Speaker 1: for your call. I'm wondering. I'm wondering why have we

625
00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:20,319
Speaker 1: not hurt anything at all about Hatch Act violations. I mean,

626
00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:23,880
Speaker 1: I thought federal employees couldn't even wear a campaign button

627
00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:26,520
Speaker 1: or have a poster, and here these people are spending

628
00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:29,879
Speaker 1: their whole time on the job uh favor in their

629
00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:32,759
Speaker 1: political candidate and and trying to wipe out the other guy.

630
00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:36,480
Speaker 1: Does that still exists? Yeah, I mean the Hatch Act.

631
00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:40,440
Speaker 1: I don't think the Hatch Act is. I think you

632
00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:43,279
Speaker 1: just get fired for it. So the Hatch Act is

633
00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:47,800
Speaker 1: not a criminal statute. I think the penalty is just firing,

634
00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:51,600
Speaker 1: and so it's it's rarely enforced. Yes, you're right, you

635
00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:53,560
Speaker 1: can't wear You know, when I was in the CIA,

636
00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:55,680
Speaker 1: I couldn't show up at a campaign event say hey,

637
00:37:55,680 --> 00:37:58,560
Speaker 1: I'm buck, I'm from the CIA, and the CIA supports

638
00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:00,400
Speaker 1: this guy, right, which you know may may not have

639
00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:02,560
Speaker 1: been a good thing for that candidate. Um, but that

640
00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:04,200
Speaker 1: you know, I could have gotten fired for that under

641
00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:06,520
Speaker 1: the Hatch Act. But it's not a criminal thing. So

642
00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:09,440
Speaker 1: that's why it doesn't have quite the same impact. And

643
00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:11,480
Speaker 1: also I'll just say it, and I can't tell you

644
00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:14,759
Speaker 1: very more than just my own impression. I only ever

645
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:18,080
Speaker 1: heard Hatch Act complaints from Democrats about Republicans when I

646
00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:20,839
Speaker 1: was in government, never the other way. So we're just

647
00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:23,920
Speaker 1: less snowflake like I guess when it comes to that stuff.

648
00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:26,759
Speaker 1: But thanks very for calling team our two coming up.

649
00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:40,640
Speaker 1: He's back with you now, because when it comes to

650
00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:49,920
Speaker 1: the fight for truth, the fuck never stops. Africa and

651
00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:54,759
Speaker 1: Hispanic unemployment have both reached the lowest levels ever recorded.

652
00:38:55,120 --> 00:39:00,880
Speaker 1: That's something very very special. And when I made that

653
00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:06,640
Speaker 1: statement the other night, there was zero movement from the Democrats.

654
00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:11,680
Speaker 1: They sat there stone called, no smile, no applause. You

655
00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:14,480
Speaker 1: would have thought that on that one they would have

656
00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:18,200
Speaker 1: sort of at least clapped a little bit, which tells

657
00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:21,359
Speaker 1: you perhaps they'd rather see us not do well than

658
00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:24,239
Speaker 1: see our country do great. And that's not good. There's

659
00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:28,120
Speaker 1: one more, very important promise we're keeping. No longer are

660
00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:37,839
Speaker 1: we making apologies for America. We don't apologize anymore. We're

661
00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:41,759
Speaker 1: proud of our history, we're confident in our values, and

662
00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:45,560
Speaker 1: we're grateful to our heroes, and we are determined to

663
00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:50,560
Speaker 1: create a brighter future for all of our people. Welcome

664
00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:52,680
Speaker 1: back to the buck Sex and show everybody our too

665
00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:57,160
Speaker 1: is up and running here. That was President Trump earlier

666
00:39:57,200 --> 00:40:01,160
Speaker 1: today in West Virginia. And some times I pose the

667
00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:05,680
Speaker 1: question as a means of getting into some analysis here

668
00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:07,960
Speaker 1: in the show, why do they hate Trump so much?

669
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:13,120
Speaker 1: And you know that answer he or that that excerpt

670
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:15,799
Speaker 1: we just played for you where you talked about how

671
00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:19,719
Speaker 1: no more apologizing for America and a different view of

672
00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:22,080
Speaker 1: America's role in the world, that's one of the reasons

673
00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:26,400
Speaker 1: why they hate him so much, and that hatred burns

674
00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:29,640
Speaker 1: so brightly in the minds of leftists and Democrats that they,

675
00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:33,040
Speaker 1: in fact do, I think, want to see the country

676
00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:36,239
Speaker 1: suffer rather than see it prosper under Trump. I don't

677
00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:38,880
Speaker 1: think that's an overstatement. I don't think it's an unfair

678
00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:42,360
Speaker 1: point for the president to make. I think it's actually

679
00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:46,560
Speaker 1: quite clear that that is what we are dealing with.

680
00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:53,520
Speaker 1: The economy is very strong. The comments that have been

681
00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:58,840
Speaker 1: made by many Democrats in response to the tax reform,

682
00:40:59,840 --> 00:41:02,239
Speaker 1: I think that that might come back to haunt them,

683
00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:04,080
Speaker 1: even as far down aline as the mid terms. I

684
00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:10,080
Speaker 1: really do, and Trump certainly thinks so. With these corporations

685
00:41:10,120 --> 00:41:14,280
Speaker 1: giving tremendous bonuses to everybody, that Nancy Pelosi called crumbs,

686
00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:18,120
Speaker 1: that was a bad that could be like deplorable. That

687
00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:21,600
Speaker 1: does that make sense? Deplorable and crumbs, those two words

688
00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:24,799
Speaker 1: they seem to have a resemblance. I hope it has

689
00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:27,959
Speaker 1: the same meaning. But she called it crumbs. When people

690
00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:30,640
Speaker 1: are getting two thousand and three thousand dollars and one

691
00:41:30,680 --> 00:41:34,239
Speaker 1: thousand dollars, that's not crumbs. It's a lot of money. Now,

692
00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:38,919
Speaker 1: most of the Democrats, and even including Pelosi, aren't so

693
00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:42,640
Speaker 1: so dumb that they can't understand why it's bad politics

694
00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:46,360
Speaker 1: to say that a few thousand dollars for a family

695
00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:50,000
Speaker 1: in this country, that's you know, earning somewhere in the

696
00:41:50,080 --> 00:41:53,040
Speaker 1: in the median income of fifty thou dollars a year.

697
00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:57,960
Speaker 1: Let's say, Uh, most people can understand why that's bad politics.

698
00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:01,120
Speaker 1: But what you see exposed again in again with the Democrats,

699
00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:03,560
Speaker 1: and this is the Democrat party of today. And Trump

700
00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:05,480
Speaker 1: understands this, which is why I think he's got so

701
00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:09,640
Speaker 1: much confidence. Although Trump certainly never lacks in confidence, but

702
00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:12,719
Speaker 1: confidence in the GOP's fortunes going into the mid terms

703
00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:18,120
Speaker 1: because otherwise you look at the historical the the historical

704
00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:21,919
Speaker 1: record for midterm elections the party in power, I think

705
00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:27,080
Speaker 1: they've only been three times stretching back to the Civil War,

706
00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:32,280
Speaker 1: that the party that was in power did not lose

707
00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:35,480
Speaker 1: seats in a mid term in the midterm election. Right,

708
00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:40,840
Speaker 1: it was George W. Bush, Richard Nixon, and I'm forgetting

709
00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:44,480
Speaker 1: what the third one was. Sorry, but pretty good that

710
00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:46,000
Speaker 1: I pulled that out of thin air though, Right, Steve,

711
00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:48,200
Speaker 1: come on, I mean, give the guys some credit. So

712
00:42:48,360 --> 00:42:53,000
Speaker 1: it's generally speaking unlikely that you will have gains for

713
00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:55,560
Speaker 1: Republicans the mid terms, and it's a question will they lose,

714
00:42:56,239 --> 00:42:59,239
Speaker 1: you know, three seats or twenty seats um But I

715
00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:01,480
Speaker 1: think Trump is feeling pretty confident about it because the

716
00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:05,000
Speaker 1: economy is strong, and because the Democrats keep exposing themselves

717
00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:07,319
Speaker 1: for all of us who care to pay attention to it,

718
00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:09,560
Speaker 1: for all of us who I want to know what's

719
00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:13,799
Speaker 1: really going on, exposing themselves as having a disdain for

720
00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:18,520
Speaker 1: just normal people. You can say, for the folks. Democrats

721
00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:24,800
Speaker 1: just doesn't doesn't really lock in with their preferred narrative

722
00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:26,680
Speaker 1: about what's going on in the country. They just don't

723
00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:29,880
Speaker 1: have a place for people who are not in a

724
00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:34,719
Speaker 1: protected category, are not a an oppressed group or a

725
00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:38,320
Speaker 1: victimized group. I mean, if you're just somebody who wants

726
00:43:38,320 --> 00:43:41,400
Speaker 1: to live your life, do your thing, and not have

727
00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:45,400
Speaker 1: the government as a barrier to your own pursuit of

728
00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:48,719
Speaker 1: happiness and success, whatever that may be, the Democrat Party

729
00:43:48,719 --> 00:43:51,600
Speaker 1: doesn't really have a place for you. You know, hard

730
00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:54,800
Speaker 1: work is not something that you can really talk about

731
00:43:54,840 --> 00:43:57,600
Speaker 1: when your first concern, as it is for the Democrats,

732
00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:02,799
Speaker 1: is where you fit into the patriarchy, where you fit

733
00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:06,560
Speaker 1: into the various layers of oppression, you know, the we

734
00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:10,520
Speaker 1: haven't talked about intersectionality in a while, but intersectionality is

735
00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:14,640
Speaker 1: not just a fancy campus college campus term that Democrats

736
00:44:14,680 --> 00:44:18,120
Speaker 1: throw around to sound like they know what they're talking about.

737
00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:23,120
Speaker 1: It also has infected the beliefs and the policies of

738
00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:26,279
Speaker 1: the Democrat Party, which is that everything has to be

739
00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:32,800
Speaker 1: broken down into these groups. These are balkanized smaller versions

740
00:44:33,040 --> 00:44:35,600
Speaker 1: of the electorate, and then you have to pander to them,

741
00:44:35,600 --> 00:44:37,120
Speaker 1: and you have to turn them against each other and

742
00:44:37,200 --> 00:44:40,960
Speaker 1: use them against the the opposition, which is the Republican

743
00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:44,239
Speaker 1: Party of course, which is now because of Trump and

744
00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:47,120
Speaker 1: the messaging from it, a party once again of just

745
00:44:47,880 --> 00:44:52,280
Speaker 1: working folks just don't really need to be constantly lectured

746
00:44:52,280 --> 00:44:57,879
Speaker 1: about there there inadequacies when it comes to progressive ideology

747
00:44:57,920 --> 00:44:59,919
Speaker 1: that they just ideology. They just want to be able

748
00:44:59,920 --> 00:45:02,200
Speaker 1: to of support their families, be left on their own

749
00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:07,040
Speaker 1: and do their thing, and that's a good thing. But

750
00:45:07,239 --> 00:45:11,080
Speaker 1: on immigration, I will continue to hit this subject because

751
00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:14,120
Speaker 1: I think that, well, we know it's a very important

752
00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:17,160
Speaker 1: policy matter. This is where we're really going to see

753
00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:21,080
Speaker 1: what the what the Trumpsters made of when it comes

754
00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:24,320
Speaker 1: to negotiating and acting as a dealmaker while he's the president.

755
00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:27,320
Speaker 1: This is not gonna be easy. He's gonna have to

756
00:45:27,360 --> 00:45:31,040
Speaker 1: thread the needle here quite a bit. But on immigration,

757
00:45:31,760 --> 00:45:34,279
Speaker 1: some of you actually brought it up here earlier on

758
00:45:34,320 --> 00:45:38,680
Speaker 1: the show that maybe this initial offer of one point

759
00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:43,120
Speaker 1: eight million dreamers, who would I know doc our recipients.

760
00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:45,000
Speaker 1: I said, you know the problem with dreamers, It is

761
00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:51,000
Speaker 1: a it is a use useful shorthand, right, so DOCCA

762
00:45:51,640 --> 00:45:55,560
Speaker 1: is not really quite as a specific a way to

763
00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:59,200
Speaker 1: refer to them. Anyway, Trump maybe is doing this just

764
00:45:59,239 --> 00:46:02,879
Speaker 1: a show. The Democrats are entirely un serious about immigration

765
00:46:03,640 --> 00:46:06,480
Speaker 1: and cannot allow Trump a win on this, even if

766
00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:08,839
Speaker 1: it means that Trump would be giving away more than

767
00:46:08,880 --> 00:46:12,320
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people in his base would

768
00:46:12,320 --> 00:46:14,600
Speaker 1: be willing or would be happy with him giving away.

769
00:46:14,640 --> 00:46:19,120
Speaker 1: And here is what what Trump said about it earlier today.

770
00:46:19,719 --> 00:46:24,279
Speaker 1: If the Democrats choose to philibuster a framework that includes

771
00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:29,440
Speaker 1: a generous path to citizenship or something that is not fair,

772
00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:32,360
Speaker 1: we are not going to improve it. We're just not

773
00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:35,040
Speaker 1: going to improve it. So we'll either have something that's

774
00:46:35,120 --> 00:46:39,279
Speaker 1: fair and equitable and good and secure we're gonna have

775
00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:43,480
Speaker 1: nothing at all. We will be demonstrating that we are

776
00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:46,640
Speaker 1: very very serious. One of the reasons I gave a

777
00:46:46,719 --> 00:46:49,600
Speaker 1: number that was I thought a very generous number was

778
00:46:49,719 --> 00:46:52,319
Speaker 1: because I wanted to see whether or not they were

779
00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:55,280
Speaker 1: interested in approving that. Because if they don't approve something

780
00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:59,759
Speaker 1: within that sphere that means very simply that then that

781
00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:02,520
Speaker 1: can to approve it at all. They want to use

782
00:47:02,560 --> 00:47:06,440
Speaker 1: it for an election issue, but it's now an election

783
00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:10,720
Speaker 1: issue that will go to our benefit, not their benefit. See.

784
00:47:10,520 --> 00:47:15,280
Speaker 1: I think the conventional wisdom going into this immigration negotiation

785
00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:19,680
Speaker 1: would have been something like the following. Trump needs the

786
00:47:19,719 --> 00:47:21,920
Speaker 1: support of his base going into it. He wants to

787
00:47:21,960 --> 00:47:25,200
Speaker 1: get the best deal he can, and the best deal

788
00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:28,439
Speaker 1: means the one that secures the border and and does

789
00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:32,160
Speaker 1: the most for interior enforcement and for workplace enforcement with

790
00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:36,200
Speaker 1: the immigration system. And so there's no reason for him

791
00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:39,000
Speaker 1: to make an initial offer that would include any kind

792
00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:41,000
Speaker 1: of amnesty because he wants to see what we'll see

793
00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:43,040
Speaker 1: what kind of deal he can get first. Instead, Trump

794
00:47:43,080 --> 00:47:45,520
Speaker 1: just goes, all right, let's just let's just show our

795
00:47:45,520 --> 00:47:48,160
Speaker 1: cards right away. This is what I'm willing to do.

796
00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:51,879
Speaker 1: What are you willing to do? And it has made

797
00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:53,319
Speaker 1: it to the Democrats don't really have a lot of

798
00:47:53,360 --> 00:47:55,840
Speaker 1: room to run. What are they gonna say, No, it

799
00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:59,000
Speaker 1: has to be an amnesty for everyone, or no, we

800
00:47:59,040 --> 00:48:01,319
Speaker 1: won't take it. We won't take an amnesty for one

801
00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:06,359
Speaker 1: point eight million unless it doesn't come with a wall

802
00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:08,680
Speaker 1: on any of these other border security provisions that Trump

803
00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:11,680
Speaker 1: has insisting on. I think that's tough. I think that's

804
00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:15,040
Speaker 1: a really tough sell for them if they forced a shutdown.

805
00:48:15,080 --> 00:48:16,600
Speaker 1: I think that the government's was to run in the

806
00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:21,080
Speaker 1: money February eighth, maybe something like that, and something like that, John,

807
00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:23,040
Speaker 1: if I'm wrong with me now, I think it's something

808
00:48:23,120 --> 00:48:26,359
Speaker 1: like early February. The governments could rite out of money

809
00:48:26,560 --> 00:48:31,799
Speaker 1: and Democrats got shellacked in the last shutdown, right, They

810
00:48:32,080 --> 00:48:35,759
Speaker 1: got wasted and they had to turn that around. It

811
00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:38,000
Speaker 1: wasn't a shutdown was it was actually a weekend, which

812
00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:39,960
Speaker 1: I know people say the government shutdown every weekend on

813
00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:42,920
Speaker 1: holidays anyway, But it wasn't even really a shutdown. I mean,

814
00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:45,279
Speaker 1: the government was by the time we were telling the

815
00:48:45,320 --> 00:48:47,520
Speaker 1: stories on air, I was like, whoops, that's over with.

816
00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:50,840
Speaker 1: Democrats had to pull out of that. They had to

817
00:48:51,280 --> 00:48:54,799
Speaker 1: back off because they knew that public opinion wasn't with them.

818
00:48:54,840 --> 00:49:01,200
Speaker 1: You're gonna stop providing services to citizens taxpayers because of

819
00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:05,279
Speaker 1: a population of illegals. Really, that's a tough one for

820
00:49:05,280 --> 00:49:08,279
Speaker 1: the mid terms. Uh. They really just want to keep

821
00:49:08,320 --> 00:49:11,879
Speaker 1: the issue alive as long as they can, I think,

822
00:49:12,320 --> 00:49:15,080
Speaker 1: because it means that they'll just run with the storyline

823
00:49:15,239 --> 00:49:21,160
Speaker 1: of a racist, heartless, unfeeling GOP. But if Trump makes

824
00:49:21,160 --> 00:49:23,400
Speaker 1: them an offer that allows a couple of million to

825
00:49:23,520 --> 00:49:27,920
Speaker 1: get amnesty and they turned that down, who are the unfeeling,

826
00:49:28,160 --> 00:49:32,040
Speaker 1: un serious legislators? You know which party is just playing

827
00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:34,080
Speaker 1: games with this? I think it becomes quite clear. So

828
00:49:35,040 --> 00:49:38,680
Speaker 1: while I was concerned at first about the direction Trump

829
00:49:38,719 --> 00:49:43,000
Speaker 1: was going in on immigration specifically, now I can see

830
00:49:43,040 --> 00:49:45,520
Speaker 1: some of the wisdom in this. I still would have

831
00:49:45,560 --> 00:49:49,080
Speaker 1: a problem with amnesty for almost two million people, because

832
00:49:49,120 --> 00:49:52,320
Speaker 1: it's never the number is never the number. And everyone

833
00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:55,720
Speaker 1: I know who is really gone deep on this issue

834
00:49:56,080 --> 00:50:00,800
Speaker 1: is aware of this and agrees with me. But Trump

835
00:50:00,840 --> 00:50:02,440
Speaker 1: may not have to do any there might have to

836
00:50:02,480 --> 00:50:05,200
Speaker 1: be any amnesty, and in the meantime, any government shutdown

837
00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:08,840
Speaker 1: that happens because of it would look entirely hollow. It

838
00:50:08,840 --> 00:50:12,200
Speaker 1: would just be the most obvious grandstanding you could possibly

839
00:50:12,200 --> 00:50:16,400
Speaker 1: see from folks like Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer and whomever,

840
00:50:17,280 --> 00:50:19,839
Speaker 1: because they'll they'll walked away from If you think about

841
00:50:19,880 --> 00:50:22,440
Speaker 1: how you sell that one. They walked away from amnesty

842
00:50:22,440 --> 00:50:24,279
Speaker 1: for two million people, and now they can pretend they

843
00:50:24,320 --> 00:50:27,160
Speaker 1: care so much about this two million people. If they

844
00:50:27,160 --> 00:50:30,440
Speaker 1: walk away from amnesty for the for Dhaka as proposed

845
00:50:30,440 --> 00:50:34,839
Speaker 1: by Trump at this opening of negotiations, because they don't

846
00:50:34,840 --> 00:50:37,680
Speaker 1: want a wall, then I think it's also just clear

847
00:50:37,760 --> 00:50:40,200
Speaker 1: to anyone who is going to be even a little

848
00:50:40,239 --> 00:50:43,799
Speaker 1: bit honest, Democrats are just pro illegal immigration. They're not

849
00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:47,440
Speaker 1: trying to deal with legal immigration. They actually want more

850
00:50:47,480 --> 00:50:51,239
Speaker 1: illegal immigration, which I think is already true, but it

851
00:50:51,280 --> 00:50:54,360
Speaker 1: will be more apparent, it will be more demonstrable. We

852
00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:58,719
Speaker 1: can show people that that's in fact the case. So

853
00:50:59,080 --> 00:51:02,800
Speaker 1: we will see how this how this dispute is resolved

854
00:51:02,920 --> 00:51:05,440
Speaker 1: or not over what to do about Dhaka, and and

855
00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:10,000
Speaker 1: how we will go go forward on the immigration because

856
00:51:10,160 --> 00:51:12,440
Speaker 1: this has got to be a centerpiece for Trump right now.

857
00:51:12,480 --> 00:51:16,640
Speaker 1: I mean, if he loses the House, you know all

858
00:51:16,680 --> 00:51:18,880
Speaker 1: this talk we have right now about we're gonna be

859
00:51:18,960 --> 00:51:21,080
Speaker 1: so frustrated. Oh yeah, we needed sixty votes in the

860
00:51:21,080 --> 00:51:24,960
Speaker 1: Senate to basically get anything done. This is This is

861
00:51:25,000 --> 00:51:27,560
Speaker 1: the Senate's constructs that they can all just worry about

862
00:51:27,960 --> 00:51:30,560
Speaker 1: fundraising and getting reelected and not have to take any

863
00:51:30,560 --> 00:51:33,759
Speaker 1: tough votes. They like the sixty threshold, I think, make

864
00:51:33,800 --> 00:51:36,759
Speaker 1: no mistake about it. In a house passes stuff all

865
00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:38,239
Speaker 1: the time, we're like, oh, that would be great. Oh

866
00:51:38,239 --> 00:51:39,840
Speaker 1: it will never get through the Senate. Why we have

867
00:51:39,840 --> 00:51:43,320
Speaker 1: a majority, Oh, because we need Democrat votes for that too.

868
00:51:43,600 --> 00:51:45,400
Speaker 1: What's the point of a majority if you need Democrat

869
00:51:45,480 --> 00:51:50,080
Speaker 1: votes to do anything. I'm just throwing lots of stuff

870
00:51:50,080 --> 00:51:52,400
Speaker 1: out there today. But yeah, I think you should pardon

871
00:51:52,480 --> 00:51:54,320
Speaker 1: General Flynn Trump, by the way, and I think that

872
00:51:54,360 --> 00:51:57,600
Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell should just say, you know what, unless it's

873
00:51:57,640 --> 00:52:00,560
Speaker 1: constitutionally prescribed otherwise. And there are some things that are

874
00:52:00,560 --> 00:52:03,360
Speaker 1: constitutionally mandated, you know, removal from office for a president,

875
00:52:03,400 --> 00:52:08,000
Speaker 1: for example, two thirds. But this whole you've gotta be

876
00:52:08,040 --> 00:52:10,560
Speaker 1: able to get sixty two. Beat a filibuster. No, no

877
00:52:10,719 --> 00:52:13,719
Speaker 1: more of this. This is gard this is garbage, This

878
00:52:13,880 --> 00:52:18,600
Speaker 1: is self imposed ineptitude, and we can't allow this to

879
00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:20,880
Speaker 1: continue on the way that it is. I'm telling you,

880
00:52:20,920 --> 00:52:22,560
Speaker 1: if we lose the House and goes in the mid terms,

881
00:52:22,600 --> 00:52:24,480
Speaker 1: We're all be sitting around like, oh, you know what

882
00:52:24,760 --> 00:52:27,879
Speaker 1: Trump could have done, if only, if only, He's got

883
00:52:27,880 --> 00:52:29,600
Speaker 1: to do it now. That's why immigration has to be

884
00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:33,880
Speaker 1: a place where he does it now. Time is not

885
00:52:34,120 --> 00:52:38,920
Speaker 1: on the side of those who wish to uh secure

886
00:52:38,960 --> 00:52:42,840
Speaker 1: the border and get something worthwhile from Trump's majority in

887
00:52:42,880 --> 00:52:57,400
Speaker 1: the House and the Senate. Well, I was right, but

888
00:52:57,440 --> 00:53:00,359
Speaker 1: I wasn't right about all of it, or I didn't

889
00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:03,800
Speaker 1: get all of it. When I said that mid terms,

890
00:53:05,600 --> 00:53:08,640
Speaker 1: I told you correctly that everyone going back to Civil

891
00:53:08,680 --> 00:53:13,120
Speaker 1: War basically loses with with three exceptions. And yes, it

892
00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:15,640
Speaker 1: is true that George Bush in his first mid term

893
00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:20,760
Speaker 1: picked up seats. It is also true that Nixon in wait,

894
00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:22,799
Speaker 1: did I know, did I get the Nixon went wrong? Oh,

895
00:53:22,840 --> 00:53:25,840
Speaker 1: he picked up two Senate seats. Okay, so it depends

896
00:53:25,880 --> 00:53:27,560
Speaker 1: on whether we're looking at the House or the Senate.

897
00:53:27,560 --> 00:53:31,239
Speaker 1: But Nixon picked up two Senate seats, and but he

898
00:53:31,320 --> 00:53:33,359
Speaker 1: lost House seats. But he picked up the House. I mean,

899
00:53:33,400 --> 00:53:39,200
Speaker 1: he picked up the Senate Roosevelt picked up in thirty four.

900
00:53:40,080 --> 00:53:44,520
Speaker 1: And then also I see here Clinton picked up in

901
00:53:44,600 --> 00:53:48,440
Speaker 1: his first he picked up five five House seats in

902
00:53:48,600 --> 00:53:51,600
Speaker 1: his first midterm election. So or no, was that a

903
00:53:51,640 --> 00:53:55,799
Speaker 1: second midten sorry, his second midterm election? Yeah, there you go.

904
00:53:56,680 --> 00:53:58,160
Speaker 1: So I was close. So I mean the ones I

905
00:53:58,200 --> 00:53:59,719
Speaker 1: said were correct, but I left one or two out.

906
00:53:59,719 --> 00:54:02,319
Speaker 1: But I mean, FDR, does that really count? I guess

907
00:54:02,360 --> 00:54:08,160
Speaker 1: it counts. Kenny in Saugus Sagas. How do we say

908
00:54:08,160 --> 00:54:12,040
Speaker 1: that in Boston? You would say it's Sagas. It's just

909
00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:14,919
Speaker 1: north of Boston, so I usually say it's just north

910
00:54:14,960 --> 00:54:18,840
Speaker 1: to Boston over the eight miles north. How is the

911
00:54:18,920 --> 00:54:26,480
Speaker 1: chowder in Saugust It's very chowy. Yeah, it's very good. Yeah.

912
00:54:26,640 --> 00:54:28,880
Speaker 1: So I want to I'm here to scour your wisdom,

913
00:54:28,920 --> 00:54:31,399
Speaker 1: to pick your brain. I want to know one thing.

914
00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:35,719
Speaker 1: They're discrediting this memo. Obviously, this is the campaign that's

915
00:54:35,719 --> 00:54:41,240
Speaker 1: been lodged here. Um. I heard something about the FBI

916
00:54:41,360 --> 00:54:45,960
Speaker 1: had broken a meeting to discuss the memo and at

917
00:54:45,960 --> 00:54:49,439
Speaker 1: the White House and to uh decide what they wanted

918
00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:51,239
Speaker 1: to leave in, what they could release and they will

919
00:54:51,280 --> 00:54:55,480
Speaker 1: make an alterations. And at the same time, simultaneously Adam

920
00:54:55,560 --> 00:55:00,400
Speaker 1: Schiff then Maline Noonez I'm saying he's making changes to it.

921
00:55:01,120 --> 00:55:04,040
Speaker 1: And so I'm thinking that that's connected, that there's there's

922
00:55:04,040 --> 00:55:06,560
Speaker 1: probably they probably did that just to support that. And

923
00:55:06,560 --> 00:55:09,560
Speaker 1: then there's another thing Washington Post. I read a story

924
00:55:09,680 --> 00:55:12,560
Speaker 1: online that says, how come Trump is in a hurry

925
00:55:12,680 --> 00:55:16,320
Speaker 1: to release this memo? Isn't this crazy? Couldn't he released

926
00:55:16,320 --> 00:55:20,319
Speaker 1: it months ago? Look? There, there's Okay, So you're bringing

927
00:55:20,360 --> 00:55:21,680
Speaker 1: up a lot of good points, and so let me

928
00:55:21,680 --> 00:55:24,800
Speaker 1: make sure that I addressed them each in turn. About

929
00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:27,600
Speaker 1: the edits, I saw that last night. I think Adam Schiff,

930
00:55:27,680 --> 00:55:32,399
Speaker 1: my favorite used sham wile salesman. I think he uh

931
00:55:32,640 --> 00:55:35,120
Speaker 1: he tweeted something about how their edits made, and now

932
00:55:35,120 --> 00:55:38,640
Speaker 1: we find out the edits were minor and structural. It

933
00:55:38,680 --> 00:55:42,000
Speaker 1: also doesn't really matter, right because they're contesting parts of

934
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:44,480
Speaker 1: the memo anyway, So to say that some of it

935
00:55:44,560 --> 00:55:48,600
Speaker 1: was edited, what does that even? Who? Who even really

936
00:55:48,640 --> 00:55:51,720
Speaker 1: care at that point because they're gonna be contesting everything

937
00:55:51,719 --> 00:55:54,680
Speaker 1: that it says, and they're gonna declassify it's going to

938
00:55:54,760 --> 00:55:57,879
Speaker 1: be public information. So it just struck me as very

939
00:55:57,880 --> 00:56:01,719
Speaker 1: petty and very desperate. And I think that's where much

940
00:56:01,760 --> 00:56:04,600
Speaker 1: of the resistance to releasing the memo has gone. They've

941
00:56:04,600 --> 00:56:08,080
Speaker 1: become kind of petty and desperate. So no, well, what

942
00:56:08,120 --> 00:56:10,239
Speaker 1: do we really Let's be realistic, right, Kenny, What do

943
00:56:10,280 --> 00:56:13,160
Speaker 1: we think could possibly have been changed in there that

944
00:56:13,200 --> 00:56:16,080
Speaker 1: would be worth risking the veracity of the rest of

945
00:56:16,080 --> 00:56:18,120
Speaker 1: the memo that they insert at the last moment. It

946
00:56:18,160 --> 00:56:20,360
Speaker 1: just doesn't make sense, right. One of the reasons you

947
00:56:20,400 --> 00:56:23,799
Speaker 1: know that certain conspiracies aren't real is because it's not

948
00:56:23,880 --> 00:56:26,600
Speaker 1: even good for the conspirator. Doesn't make any sense. So

949
00:56:26,880 --> 00:56:28,120
Speaker 1: you and then you brought up a few other things.

950
00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:31,120
Speaker 1: What else did you want me to hit on? Uh?

951
00:56:31,200 --> 00:56:34,160
Speaker 1: That was the Well, it was something with the FBI

952
00:56:34,640 --> 00:56:38,560
Speaker 1: meeting with them off and uh. Oh. Also they said

953
00:56:38,600 --> 00:56:40,880
Speaker 1: that Trump, they said that Trump was in a hurry

954
00:56:40,920 --> 00:56:44,360
Speaker 1: to release this memo. But from what I'm understanding is

955
00:56:44,400 --> 00:56:49,080
Speaker 1: he could have actually uh ordered its release yea months ago. Yeah,

956
00:56:49,120 --> 00:56:51,239
Speaker 1: he like he's the president. He could have said he

957
00:56:51,280 --> 00:56:54,080
Speaker 1: could have ordered the executive branch to de classifies. Like,

958
00:56:54,120 --> 00:56:55,759
Speaker 1: no one's gonna tell the commander in chief. You can't

959
00:56:55,760 --> 00:56:58,560
Speaker 1: tell the American people about whatever that It doesn't work

960
00:56:58,600 --> 00:57:00,960
Speaker 1: that way, right. The commander in chief can really and

961
00:57:01,000 --> 00:57:03,279
Speaker 1: people would argue with me on this, but I've got

962
00:57:03,280 --> 00:57:05,400
Speaker 1: plenty of president to back it up. The president can

963
00:57:05,400 --> 00:57:08,200
Speaker 1: do what's called real time which is not a legal definition,

964
00:57:08,239 --> 00:57:11,480
Speaker 1: but real time declassification, which is just the president can

965
00:57:11,480 --> 00:57:14,720
Speaker 1: tell the American people about whatever he wants. Functionally speaking,

966
00:57:14,920 --> 00:57:17,280
Speaker 1: that is how it works, and no one ever contests

967
00:57:17,320 --> 00:57:21,000
Speaker 1: that is not how it works. So the president can, Yeah,

968
00:57:21,040 --> 00:57:23,800
Speaker 1: he can confer with other people and try to respect

969
00:57:23,840 --> 00:57:26,520
Speaker 1: the processes that are in place for classified but he

970
00:57:26,520 --> 00:57:28,440
Speaker 1: can be classified whatever he wants. And I would just

971
00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:30,880
Speaker 1: note Kenny that people now are complaining. I'm seeing some

972
00:57:30,920 --> 00:57:35,520
Speaker 1: of the Democrat apparatus out there, journalists and talking heads

973
00:57:35,560 --> 00:57:38,440
Speaker 1: and lawyer types that are saying, well, why do you

974
00:57:38,480 --> 00:57:40,640
Speaker 1: go through the why do you go through the House process?

975
00:57:40,680 --> 00:57:42,560
Speaker 1: If he just could do it himself, as though that's

976
00:57:42,600 --> 00:57:44,720
Speaker 1: now a bad thing, and we all know if Trump

977
00:57:44,720 --> 00:57:47,200
Speaker 1: had just declassified it, they'd say that he's meddling and

978
00:57:47,240 --> 00:57:50,000
Speaker 1: he's causing problems, and you know he's so anyway, he

979
00:57:50,040 --> 00:57:52,200
Speaker 1: can't win either way, Kenny, thanks to the call, the

980
00:57:52,240 --> 00:57:54,240
Speaker 1: good question, my friend. Great to talk to you up

981
00:57:54,280 --> 00:57:57,439
Speaker 1: in Ugas. I like it, I learned, I learned lots

982
00:57:57,440 --> 00:57:59,920
Speaker 1: of new towns on this show. My America g are.

983
00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:13,320
Speaker 1: If he's getting better in the Freedom Hunt, he's back

984
00:58:13,360 --> 00:58:15,720
Speaker 1: with you now, because when it comes to the fight

985
00:58:15,800 --> 00:58:20,320
Speaker 1: for truth, the fuck never stops. There's a new poll

986
00:58:20,400 --> 00:58:23,640
Speaker 1: from Monbouth where the president's approval rating has ticked up

987
00:58:23,640 --> 00:58:27,400
Speaker 1: to This is out of the thirties where President Trump

988
00:58:27,400 --> 00:58:30,040
Speaker 1: has wallowed, one might say, for most of the time

989
00:58:30,080 --> 00:58:33,160
Speaker 1: since is inauguration a b y? Why do we think?

990
00:58:33,280 --> 00:58:35,919
Speaker 1: I mean, they did pass tax reformed by a Christmas deadline, Okay,

991
00:58:35,960 --> 00:58:37,959
Speaker 1: after a year of failing to repeal in a place

992
00:58:37,960 --> 00:58:40,080
Speaker 1: Obamacare and fighting with each other. But I know that

993
00:58:40,120 --> 00:58:41,920
Speaker 1: the tax reform plan, at least in many polls, he

994
00:58:42,000 --> 00:58:44,880
Speaker 1: is viewed by a majority of Americans negatively. The polling

995
00:58:44,920 --> 00:58:49,160
Speaker 1: on tax reform was really bad in December. It's actually rising,

996
00:58:49,320 --> 00:58:53,200
Speaker 1: becoming more popular, and either people are responding to their

997
00:58:53,240 --> 00:58:55,960
Speaker 1: own personal data or they're responding to these stories of

998
00:58:56,080 --> 00:58:58,960
Speaker 1: corporations feeling a boost and sharing it with their workers,

999
00:58:59,040 --> 00:59:00,880
Speaker 1: and that is a positive for him. It's it's a

1000
00:59:00,960 --> 00:59:04,439
Speaker 1: legislative success and the economics. All the polls are moving

1001
00:59:04,440 --> 00:59:06,920
Speaker 1: in Donald Trump's direction have been for the last one month.

1002
00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:10,240
Speaker 1: The president's favorable has moved up five since tax reform

1003
00:59:10,320 --> 00:59:14,280
Speaker 1: was enacted in December, and his unfavorable has dropped three

1004
00:59:14,720 --> 00:59:17,000
Speaker 1: that's an eight point improvement in one month. Now he's

1005
00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:18,960
Speaker 1: still upside down. He's got a long way to go.

1006
00:59:19,000 --> 00:59:21,520
Speaker 1: But make no mistake, the president's numbers are on the move.

1007
00:59:22,160 --> 00:59:24,840
Speaker 1: Equally important the right track wrong track, and these are

1008
00:59:24,840 --> 00:59:27,800
Speaker 1: the real clear politics average. The right track, wrong track

1009
00:59:27,880 --> 00:59:31,560
Speaker 1: has improved thirteen points in selection day. On election Day

1010
00:59:31,560 --> 00:59:35,080
Speaker 1: two thousand sixteen, the Americans felt overwhelmingly this nation's on

1011
00:59:35,120 --> 00:59:37,360
Speaker 1: the wrong track, and there's been a thirteen point improvement

1012
00:59:37,400 --> 00:59:41,240
Speaker 1: since Trump took over. You know what, another shorter way

1013
00:59:41,280 --> 00:59:45,160
Speaker 1: of talking about these polls would be just this is

1014
00:59:45,200 --> 00:59:48,600
Speaker 1: all about results. Wasn't it funny? That was a CNN

1015
00:59:48,840 --> 00:59:51,120
Speaker 1: clip initially that we played there and then we followed

1016
00:59:51,240 --> 00:59:55,040
Speaker 1: up with ari A. R. Fleischer over at Fox. But

1017
00:59:55,200 --> 00:59:58,640
Speaker 1: in that CNN exchange, you had a B. Stoddard, she

1018
00:59:58,760 --> 01:00:00,960
Speaker 1: used to be with the Hill where it whish who she? Yeah?

1019
01:00:01,000 --> 01:00:03,080
Speaker 1: I forget she with the Hill still now? I don't

1020
01:00:03,120 --> 01:00:06,200
Speaker 1: wish She's moved on somewhere else, I think. But she's

1021
01:00:06,240 --> 01:00:09,120
Speaker 1: talking to to Jim Shooto of CNN and they're going

1022
01:00:09,160 --> 01:00:13,160
Speaker 1: back and fourth over like whoa. Okay. So so the

1023
01:00:13,160 --> 01:00:17,040
Speaker 1: there are two very interesting takeaways from that. One is

1024
01:00:17,080 --> 01:00:20,560
Speaker 1: that people looked at tax reform negatively, and I know

1025
01:00:20,640 --> 01:00:23,080
Speaker 1: at CNN that's like a cause of celebration, right, Oh

1026
01:00:23,120 --> 01:00:29,480
Speaker 1: my gosh, it's great hit tax reform. But let's understand

1027
01:00:29,520 --> 01:00:33,600
Speaker 1: what that means. It just means that the propaganda apparatus

1028
01:00:33,600 --> 01:00:37,160
Speaker 1: of the media is still so powerful that it is

1029
01:00:37,200 --> 01:00:43,400
Speaker 1: able to convince a majority of the American people that

1030
01:00:44,520 --> 01:00:49,160
Speaker 1: the government letting some Americans keep some percentage more of

1031
01:00:49,200 --> 01:00:52,160
Speaker 1: the money that they are earning is a bad thing.

1032
01:00:53,560 --> 01:00:57,240
Speaker 1: That's amazing, isn't it. How how is that possible? You

1033
01:00:57,320 --> 01:00:59,320
Speaker 1: might wonder to yourself, how would it be possible that

1034
01:01:00,040 --> 01:01:01,960
Speaker 1: they would be able to convince some of that? And

1035
01:01:02,960 --> 01:01:06,480
Speaker 1: they're clearly annoyed at that is fading, that that concept

1036
01:01:06,560 --> 01:01:10,240
Speaker 1: of more money in the pockets of private citizens is

1037
01:01:10,320 --> 01:01:13,880
Speaker 1: bad somehow. But then also the well why is it

1038
01:01:14,120 --> 01:01:17,840
Speaker 1: rising since tax reform was enacted? Well, gee, I've got

1039
01:01:17,880 --> 01:01:21,520
Speaker 1: some ideas. Let's think about this, folks. Well, we got

1040
01:01:21,560 --> 01:01:24,440
Speaker 1: a couple of political analysts on there before. Why would

1041
01:01:24,640 --> 01:01:31,840
Speaker 1: tax reform after it happens become more popular? Do do do?

1042
01:01:31,840 --> 01:01:34,840
Speaker 1: Do? Do Do? Do? Right? I feel like I probably couldn't

1043
01:01:34,840 --> 01:01:36,640
Speaker 1: actually play in the Jeopardy theme. It would be some

1044
01:01:36,720 --> 01:01:38,920
Speaker 1: kind of a rights thing. But I just sang it

1045
01:01:38,960 --> 01:01:41,760
Speaker 1: for you because I that's how much I care now.

1046
01:01:41,840 --> 01:01:44,400
Speaker 1: But the reason is quite obviously that it's gonna happen,

1047
01:01:44,440 --> 01:01:46,480
Speaker 1: and now people are seeing it, and I've got I

1048
01:01:46,600 --> 01:01:49,960
Speaker 1: have friends, I have friends, I know people personally who

1049
01:01:50,000 --> 01:01:51,760
Speaker 1: were saying, all of a sudden, I've got a little

1050
01:01:51,760 --> 01:01:56,640
Speaker 1: more money in my in my bank account. Each paycheck

1051
01:01:56,760 --> 01:02:00,880
Speaker 1: is a little bit bigger, and it helps. It helps.

1052
01:02:00,880 --> 01:02:05,200
Speaker 1: It also creates a sense that we are moving forward

1053
01:02:05,280 --> 01:02:07,320
Speaker 1: here right. It creates a sense that things can get

1054
01:02:07,360 --> 01:02:10,600
Speaker 1: even better. And you know, I've seen now economists are

1055
01:02:10,760 --> 01:02:17,120
Speaker 1: now economists make weather men look infallible. But nonetheless, I've

1056
01:02:17,120 --> 01:02:21,960
Speaker 1: seen some predictions, some prognostications for the future where economists

1057
01:02:22,000 --> 01:02:24,240
Speaker 1: are saying that they think unemployment could be at three

1058
01:02:24,320 --> 01:02:29,080
Speaker 1: point five percent next year. So whether that happens or not,

1059
01:02:29,160 --> 01:02:31,080
Speaker 1: we will have to see. But that's certainly really low.

1060
01:02:31,920 --> 01:02:34,000
Speaker 1: But this is the big problem that Democrats are gonna have.

1061
01:02:34,040 --> 01:02:38,880
Speaker 1: They're they're not used to having to contend with an

1062
01:02:38,920 --> 01:02:45,280
Speaker 1: objective reality of a Republican president who is making real

1063
01:02:45,360 --> 01:02:49,000
Speaker 1: gains in the economy for the very people that he's

1064
01:02:49,040 --> 01:02:52,280
Speaker 1: been saying he would do it for right that this

1065
01:02:52,400 --> 01:02:56,320
Speaker 1: is going to be a tough hill for them to

1066
01:02:56,680 --> 01:03:00,000
Speaker 1: overcome when you look at the benefits of the Trump

1067
01:03:00,000 --> 01:03:02,560
Speaker 1: administration and how it's rolling out for people right now,

1068
01:03:02,680 --> 01:03:04,800
Speaker 1: I think that the Democrats aren't going to have much

1069
01:03:04,840 --> 01:03:06,920
Speaker 1: of a line. And that's when you get into just well,

1070
01:03:07,000 --> 01:03:10,320
Speaker 1: they they got to come up with something they hate Trump, right,

1071
01:03:10,400 --> 01:03:13,440
Speaker 1: and so you know, maybe they can take a page

1072
01:03:13,520 --> 01:03:17,720
Speaker 1: from the Maxi and Waters playbook here and just come

1073
01:03:17,800 --> 01:03:24,360
Speaker 1: up with some other stuff about Russia. They absolutely hated

1074
01:03:25,000 --> 01:03:42,280
Speaker 1: demotics television, absolutely interfering with SPA. What now we're talking

1075
01:03:42,280 --> 01:03:45,160
Speaker 1: about r T those who are one and that that's

1076
01:03:45,400 --> 01:03:48,520
Speaker 1: Maxi Waters, so sitting member of Congress. There's one about

1077
01:03:48,600 --> 01:03:52,200
Speaker 1: urt uh. That's the Russia Today channel that's been around

1078
01:03:52,240 --> 01:03:56,880
Speaker 1: for over ten years and is a an open Kremlin front,

1079
01:03:57,080 --> 01:03:59,720
Speaker 1: right it is. It is Kremlin propaganda. People who have

1080
01:03:59,760 --> 01:04:01,480
Speaker 1: worked there have come out and talked about it. It

1081
01:04:01,600 --> 01:04:04,640
Speaker 1: is funded as a Kremlin front. There is really no

1082
01:04:04,880 --> 01:04:09,000
Speaker 1: question about this. And yet you'll still have people with

1083
01:04:09,400 --> 01:04:14,440
Speaker 1: so much uh self righteousness, say, oh my gosh, Russia

1084
01:04:14,560 --> 01:04:18,640
Speaker 1: might meddle in future elections unless we do more. And

1085
01:04:18,680 --> 01:04:20,760
Speaker 1: I said, well, what meddaling are we're really talking about.

1086
01:04:22,040 --> 01:04:27,200
Speaker 1: There'll be these Facebook sock puppets that spread mean rumors

1087
01:04:27,200 --> 01:04:32,760
Speaker 1: about Hillary if it is that easy, If if creating

1088
01:04:32,840 --> 01:04:37,960
Speaker 1: some fake accounts overseas determines a presidential election the United States,

1089
01:04:38,280 --> 01:04:41,480
Speaker 1: we got even bigger problems in Russia. Everybody, I gotta

1090
01:04:41,520 --> 01:04:45,240
Speaker 1: wonder what's going on with folks. But when you look

1091
01:04:45,280 --> 01:04:49,840
Speaker 1: at the amount of information a noise out there, especially

1092
01:04:49,840 --> 01:04:53,600
Speaker 1: in an election year, the notion that Russia would be

1093
01:04:53,680 --> 01:04:56,160
Speaker 1: able to cut through all that and be the decider,

1094
01:04:56,240 --> 01:04:59,560
Speaker 1: be the difference maker, it's just preposterous on its face,

1095
01:05:00,360 --> 01:05:03,000
Speaker 1: But that's what they're I bring up Russia and Maxie

1096
01:05:03,000 --> 01:05:08,440
Speaker 1: Waters what Maximum Water here? Because um, she's indicative of

1097
01:05:08,440 --> 01:05:11,760
Speaker 1: where this is all going. It's gonna be Russia. They're

1098
01:05:11,760 --> 01:05:15,200
Speaker 1: gonna they're gonna run an election campaign, meaning the Democrats,

1099
01:05:15,200 --> 01:05:17,840
Speaker 1: the d n C. They're gonna run on the president

1100
01:05:17,880 --> 01:05:22,640
Speaker 1: United States is a UH is a cheater who worked

1101
01:05:22,640 --> 01:05:25,320
Speaker 1: with the Russians, betrayed his country. And that's why you

1102
01:05:25,320 --> 01:05:27,360
Speaker 1: should vote for Democrats because what else do they have?

1103
01:05:28,200 --> 01:05:30,160
Speaker 1: They don't want to. They're not gonna run on Obamacare

1104
01:05:30,200 --> 01:05:33,560
Speaker 1: because anybody who actually has Obamacare will just tell you

1105
01:05:33,600 --> 01:05:35,520
Speaker 1: horror stories about how bad it is. For the most part,

1106
01:05:35,520 --> 01:05:37,600
Speaker 1: that's been my experience. Again, I know people who have

1107
01:05:37,920 --> 01:05:41,400
Speaker 1: had to get plans off of the exchanges, and they

1108
01:05:41,400 --> 01:05:45,840
Speaker 1: are generally very displeased with the plans that they have

1109
01:05:45,960 --> 01:05:49,160
Speaker 1: gotten off the exchanges. Yeah. I mean, it's great to

1110
01:05:49,200 --> 01:05:51,440
Speaker 1: have healthcare when you have an eight thousand dollar or

1111
01:05:51,520 --> 01:05:54,160
Speaker 1: ten thousand dollars deductible and even when you hit the deductible,

1112
01:05:54,160 --> 01:05:56,439
Speaker 1: you're only seeing doctors that you really don't want to see.

1113
01:05:57,400 --> 01:05:59,320
Speaker 1: So they have nothing to run on. Really, they're gonna

1114
01:05:59,400 --> 01:06:02,000
Speaker 1: run on Trump as a racist who won't and who

1115
01:06:02,000 --> 01:06:06,400
Speaker 1: won't amnesty twelve million people and Russia. I don't think

1116
01:06:06,400 --> 01:06:09,520
Speaker 1: that's gonna be good enough. The only hope as I

1117
01:06:09,640 --> 01:06:15,000
Speaker 1: see it, the only hope that there is for the

1118
01:06:15,040 --> 01:06:19,200
Speaker 1: Democrats take this for what it's worth, is if there's

1119
01:06:19,240 --> 01:06:22,960
Speaker 1: a massive turn in the economy. Um, I think that's

1120
01:06:22,960 --> 01:06:24,480
Speaker 1: the only way that they look. Maybe they'll win one

1121
01:06:24,560 --> 01:06:26,760
Speaker 1: or two seats on balance, but you know, all these

1122
01:06:26,800 --> 01:06:29,640
Speaker 1: elections are comes down to the candidate and the specifics

1123
01:06:29,680 --> 01:06:32,760
Speaker 1: of the race, but overall our national level, if the

1124
01:06:32,800 --> 01:06:34,560
Speaker 1: economy is as strong as it is right now, I

1125
01:06:34,600 --> 01:06:36,600
Speaker 1: just don't see how they can turn this thing around.

1126
01:06:36,600 --> 01:06:40,240
Speaker 1: I really don't. And I still know people who despite

1127
01:06:40,280 --> 01:06:42,479
Speaker 1: some there's been some rockiness in the markets this week,

1128
01:06:43,000 --> 01:06:44,640
Speaker 1: I still know people who are saying this is gonna

1129
01:06:44,640 --> 01:06:48,200
Speaker 1: get even better. It's gonna be even better this year.

1130
01:06:48,400 --> 01:06:50,600
Speaker 1: I like to be optimistic. I'm gonna continue to be

1131
01:06:50,640 --> 01:06:54,240
Speaker 1: optimistic about the economy until until it's clearly wrong. How

1132
01:06:54,240 --> 01:06:57,680
Speaker 1: about that? That'll be my plan. Team lines are open

1139
01:07:15,880 --> 01:07:19,440
Speaker 1: I'm telling you it is chearing up the history podcast charts.

1140
01:07:20,240 --> 01:07:24,360
Speaker 1: It's going all the way to the top baby history podcasts.

1141
01:07:25,000 --> 01:07:29,080
Speaker 1: It's definitely beating out that history of the suffragette movement

1142
01:07:29,160 --> 01:07:33,400
Speaker 1: in thirty parts that I'm sure is there. So check

1143
01:07:33,440 --> 01:07:37,080
Speaker 1: that out. Check out the history podcast. Um and uh,

1144
01:07:37,200 --> 01:07:40,880
Speaker 1: that's that's what I got on that I realized something.

1145
01:07:40,920 --> 01:07:43,360
Speaker 1: I don't know what to do about this exactly. I

1146
01:07:43,520 --> 01:07:45,640
Speaker 1: for some reason just wanted to get to Malta because

1147
01:07:45,640 --> 01:07:48,080
Speaker 1: I really like it as a storyline. But I now

1148
01:07:48,120 --> 01:07:52,360
Speaker 1: I'm thinking, maybe you know, I skipped over the seat

1149
01:07:52,360 --> 01:07:55,280
Speaker 1: of the first Siege of Vienna, But I feel like

1150
01:07:55,320 --> 01:07:57,640
Speaker 1: now it's already been done, right, So I can't go

1151
01:07:57,720 --> 01:07:59,520
Speaker 1: back to I can't go back to the first Siege

1152
01:07:59,520 --> 01:08:02,400
Speaker 1: of Vienna. I had to do multi first. So some

1153
01:08:02,440 --> 01:08:03,680
Speaker 1: of you are like, what are you talking about, buck,

1154
01:08:03,720 --> 01:08:06,840
Speaker 1: don't worry about it. All makes sense, I think, hopefully. Um,

1155
01:08:06,880 --> 01:08:09,720
Speaker 1: and when we come back, Oh wow, I've got a

1156
01:08:09,760 --> 01:08:12,600
Speaker 1: little bit of news about vote. Remember I mentioned before

1157
01:08:12,640 --> 01:08:14,520
Speaker 1: something about voting and whether you can vote if you're

1158
01:08:14,520 --> 01:08:17,559
Speaker 1: a felon. That just there's a breaking news story on that.

1159
01:08:17,600 --> 01:08:21,200
Speaker 1: Maybe we'll discuss that and some other wonderful stuff. Stay

1160
01:08:21,200 --> 01:08:32,840
Speaker 1: with me so a team. I don't have a whole

1161
01:08:32,880 --> 01:08:34,760
Speaker 1: lot on this, but I just wanted to note that

1162
01:08:34,960 --> 01:08:37,880
Speaker 1: I mentioned before for felons, because we're talking about whether

1163
01:08:38,080 --> 01:08:41,000
Speaker 1: General Flynn should be or Mike Flynn should be pardoned.

1164
01:08:41,680 --> 01:08:44,200
Speaker 1: And this just came in a few minutes ago. This

1165
01:08:44,280 --> 01:08:48,840
Speaker 1: is Miami Herald. A federal judge ruled that Florida's lifetime

1166
01:08:48,920 --> 01:08:53,760
Speaker 1: ban on restoring voting rights for felons violates the US Constitution.

1167
01:08:54,640 --> 01:08:59,280
Speaker 1: US District Judge Mark Walker said Florida's vote restoration process

1168
01:09:00,040 --> 01:09:02,960
Speaker 1: and fairly relies on the personal support of Governor Rick

1169
01:09:03,000 --> 01:09:07,519
Speaker 1: Scott for citizens to regain this fundamental right. Walker ruled

1170
01:09:07,520 --> 01:09:10,439
Speaker 1: in a case brought by the Fair Elections Legal Network

1171
01:09:10,439 --> 01:09:14,080
Speaker 1: at Washington, d C. Group that challenge the constitutionality of

1172
01:09:14,120 --> 01:09:18,960
Speaker 1: the Florida system. All Right, So if this Walker's decision

1173
01:09:19,000 --> 01:09:21,599
Speaker 1: came nine days after the state approved a ballot measure that,

1174
01:09:21,680 --> 01:09:25,560
Speaker 1: if passed in November, would restore the voting rights of

1175
01:09:25,600 --> 01:09:28,639
Speaker 1: about one point two million felons, I would just note

1176
01:09:28,760 --> 01:09:33,720
Speaker 1: everyone that we are all quite aware that Democrats are

1177
01:09:33,760 --> 01:09:41,120
Speaker 1: certainly aware that the overwhelming number of felon voters they

1178
01:09:41,160 --> 01:09:45,000
Speaker 1: expect will vote Democrat. Right, this is why Democrats are

1179
01:09:45,040 --> 01:09:49,839
Speaker 1: so in favor of restoring voting rights for convicted felons.

1180
01:09:49,920 --> 01:09:52,720
Speaker 1: That didn't mcculloff also do this in Virginia. Wasn't that

1181
01:09:52,720 --> 01:09:56,439
Speaker 1: a big fight with tera mcculiffe um. I think I

1182
01:09:56,479 --> 01:09:58,599
Speaker 1: think it was so. Anyway, that's that's an update from

1183
01:09:58,600 --> 01:10:00,439
Speaker 1: whether you can vote as a felon or not. And

1184
01:10:00,600 --> 01:10:03,479
Speaker 1: I know you can't own a you can't legally own

1185
01:10:03,479 --> 01:10:06,160
Speaker 1: a firearm, although for violent felons they tend not to

1186
01:10:06,200 --> 01:10:08,960
Speaker 1: be like, oh gosh, I already served that ten years

1187
01:10:08,960 --> 01:10:11,479
Speaker 1: for armed robbery. I better not getting a legal gun

1188
01:10:11,560 --> 01:10:14,160
Speaker 1: for my next one. Right that tends not to slow

1189
01:10:14,240 --> 01:10:17,600
Speaker 1: them down necessarily. Um. But that's the story that I

1190
01:10:17,640 --> 01:10:19,439
Speaker 1: had for you on or that's the only updated here

1191
01:10:19,479 --> 01:10:25,200
Speaker 1: for you on voting and felons and felons rights. So

1192
01:10:25,320 --> 01:10:27,360
Speaker 1: I didn't I didn't talk about it originally because I

1193
01:10:27,400 --> 01:10:31,960
Speaker 1: wasn't really sure what are what are important analytic takeaway

1194
01:10:32,000 --> 01:10:35,040
Speaker 1: could be or but but you know what, this guy

1195
01:10:35,080 --> 01:10:36,760
Speaker 1: is such an idiot that I feel like we should

1196
01:10:36,840 --> 01:10:39,240
Speaker 1: just I don't want to skip over this entirely because

1197
01:10:39,280 --> 01:10:42,439
Speaker 1: it's it's indicative of a of a mindset that's much

1198
01:10:42,439 --> 01:10:46,800
Speaker 1: more widespread on the left than certainly the mainstream Democrats

1199
01:10:46,800 --> 01:10:50,320
Speaker 1: want admitute This guy, Gregory Salcido, he is a teacher

1200
01:10:50,360 --> 01:10:53,320
Speaker 1: out in California, and he's on video and this is

1201
01:10:53,360 --> 01:10:57,000
Speaker 1: what this is what he had to say about the military.

1202
01:10:58,160 --> 01:11:00,639
Speaker 1: Think about the people who you know, you're freaking stupid,

1203
01:11:00,680 --> 01:11:03,360
Speaker 1: Uncle Louis or whatever. They're done. They're not like high

1204
01:11:03,439 --> 01:11:06,960
Speaker 1: level thinkers are not academic people that intellectual people. They're

1205
01:11:06,960 --> 01:11:09,599
Speaker 1: the freaking the lowest stuff I loan, they're not talented people.

1206
01:11:10,200 --> 01:11:12,679
Speaker 1: That's how when president talks says we have the best military,

1207
01:11:12,720 --> 01:11:13,960
Speaker 1: and with presidents where I'll say that the way it

1208
01:11:13,960 --> 01:11:17,040
Speaker 1: was Obama ways anybody, I was like, no, the data

1209
01:11:17,160 --> 01:11:19,639
Speaker 1: is in, we don't have a good military. We it's

1210
01:11:19,680 --> 01:11:22,759
Speaker 1: a lot that our military should do. Joined the military.

1211
01:11:22,920 --> 01:11:25,200
Speaker 1: It's because you have no other options, because you didn't

1212
01:11:25,200 --> 01:11:27,320
Speaker 1: take care of business, academic, you cause your parents didn't

1213
01:11:27,320 --> 01:11:29,559
Speaker 1: love you enough to push you, and then you didn't

1214
01:11:29,600 --> 01:11:32,240
Speaker 1: love yourself enough. Don't you ever freaking bring them to

1215
01:11:32,280 --> 01:11:35,400
Speaker 1: your military. To this guy, I don't understand what we

1216
01:11:35,479 --> 01:11:37,200
Speaker 1: let to freaking military guys come over here and recut

1217
01:11:37,240 --> 01:11:39,120
Speaker 1: you at school. We don't have pimps come into school.

1218
01:11:41,080 --> 01:11:44,680
Speaker 1: It would be hard to think of a more stupid, incorrect,

1219
01:11:44,880 --> 01:11:48,160
Speaker 1: and offensive rant that one could come up with. It mean,

1220
01:11:48,160 --> 01:11:51,360
Speaker 1: if you were writing the role in a movie of

1221
01:11:52,560 --> 01:11:56,960
Speaker 1: moron who who defames the military, I'm not sure you

1222
01:11:57,120 --> 01:11:59,559
Speaker 1: you could manage to be quite as offensive as this guy.

1223
01:11:59,640 --> 01:12:02,479
Speaker 1: Or you have to try really hard, and you have

1224
01:12:02,520 --> 01:12:06,679
Speaker 1: to wonder, how could anyone be so ungrateful and dumb

1225
01:12:06,960 --> 01:12:12,960
Speaker 1: and and just disgraceful. I think General Kelly white House

1226
01:12:13,000 --> 01:12:18,200
Speaker 1: chief of Staff, nailed it pretty well well. I think

1227
01:12:18,200 --> 01:12:20,160
Speaker 1: the guy I ought to go to hell. Um, I

1228
01:12:20,280 --> 01:12:24,160
Speaker 1: just hope he enjoys the liberties in the in the

1229
01:12:24,200 --> 01:12:31,080
Speaker 1: lifestyle that that we have fought for. Yeah, I think

1230
01:12:31,080 --> 01:12:32,760
Speaker 1: a guy going to Hell is a pretty good That's

1231
01:12:32,760 --> 01:12:35,559
Speaker 1: certainly a good start. And you know, this is all

1232
01:12:35,600 --> 01:12:37,479
Speaker 1: stories saying, I don't know why people do this thing

1233
01:12:37,520 --> 01:12:40,280
Speaker 1: of they they start sending you know, you never send

1234
01:12:40,280 --> 01:12:42,920
Speaker 1: anyone death threats because now, first of all, you just

1235
01:12:42,960 --> 01:12:45,200
Speaker 1: never do that. But also now they're turning the guy

1236
01:12:45,200 --> 01:12:47,920
Speaker 1: into a victim in the backlash. And instead of there's

1237
01:12:48,240 --> 01:12:50,880
Speaker 1: this just being a teachable moment, now he gets to say, oh,

1238
01:12:50,920 --> 01:12:53,080
Speaker 1: you know, the right wing is coming after me, although

1239
01:12:53,120 --> 01:12:56,120
Speaker 1: the left wing is, or at least the mainstream Democrats

1240
01:12:56,160 --> 01:12:58,519
Speaker 1: are annoyed too. Because this goes to show that in

1241
01:12:58,760 --> 01:13:03,600
Speaker 1: this country, if you're anti military, you're times out of

1242
01:13:03,600 --> 01:13:06,120
Speaker 1: a hundred you're on the left right. Times out of

1243
01:13:06,160 --> 01:13:09,160
Speaker 1: a hundred, you're like a Democrat registered Bernie Sanders voter.

1244
01:13:09,520 --> 01:13:12,160
Speaker 1: Maybe you're about the Working Families Party or something, or

1245
01:13:12,200 --> 01:13:14,559
Speaker 1: you know, Communist Party USA, but you're on the left.

1246
01:13:14,960 --> 01:13:18,120
Speaker 1: If you're anti military, there's just no place for that

1247
01:13:18,200 --> 01:13:19,960
Speaker 1: at all on the right. I mean, as there shouldn't

1248
01:13:19,960 --> 01:13:22,519
Speaker 1: be for it anywhere. I also just think it. It

1249
01:13:22,840 --> 01:13:28,840
Speaker 1: made me well. It reminded me of how this guy

1250
01:13:28,960 --> 01:13:32,000
Speaker 1: is so wrong, he's so dumb. When I think of

1251
01:13:32,040 --> 01:13:37,080
Speaker 1: some of my friends growing up who were not only served,

1252
01:13:37,080 --> 01:13:41,040
Speaker 1: but served in in combat and some really some really

1253
01:13:41,040 --> 01:13:44,920
Speaker 1: tough stuff in Iraq and Afghanistan, and my parents, if

1254
01:13:44,920 --> 01:13:46,840
Speaker 1: they're listening to show, they certainly know who I'm thinking of.

1255
01:13:46,880 --> 01:13:48,960
Speaker 1: A couple of them were friends of mine for many,

1256
01:13:48,960 --> 01:13:52,280
Speaker 1: many years. There are two guys in particular, UM, both

1257
01:13:52,280 --> 01:13:55,160
Speaker 1: one and them both one of the Marine Corps. And

1258
01:13:55,760 --> 01:13:59,800
Speaker 1: not only were they yeah, I'm trying to think of

1259
01:13:59,800 --> 01:14:03,000
Speaker 1: the this way to describe them, the guys that everybody

1260
01:14:03,240 --> 01:14:05,479
Speaker 1: you know knew and liked and went to great schools,

1261
01:14:05,800 --> 01:14:10,200
Speaker 1: but also the two of them came from very well

1262
01:14:10,240 --> 01:14:14,360
Speaker 1: off backgrounds financially speaking, UM, and they both went into

1263
01:14:14,479 --> 01:14:19,160
Speaker 1: the Marine Corps and both went into combat U one enlisted,

1264
01:14:19,200 --> 01:14:22,240
Speaker 1: one as an officer. And they saw us. I mean,

1265
01:14:22,280 --> 01:14:24,759
Speaker 1: I've I've been out for it with with one of them. Actually,

1266
01:14:24,760 --> 01:14:26,000
Speaker 1: I've been out with both of them over drinks to

1267
01:14:26,040 --> 01:14:28,439
Speaker 1: talk about it. But one of them, particular, I mean,

1268
01:14:28,479 --> 01:14:31,880
Speaker 1: he was he was in uh, the Fallujah part of

1269
01:14:31,880 --> 01:14:36,759
Speaker 1: the world when things were particularly spicy over there, and

1270
01:14:36,960 --> 01:14:39,599
Speaker 1: he saw some really you know, he saw some really

1271
01:14:39,640 --> 01:14:43,040
Speaker 1: fierce combat. And I just so so, you know, I

1272
01:14:43,120 --> 01:14:46,960
Speaker 1: just have personal experience with friends of mine who served,

1273
01:14:46,960 --> 01:14:49,120
Speaker 1: who I knew growing up, and so that's why when

1274
01:14:49,160 --> 01:14:51,400
Speaker 1: he tells a story about, you know, no options, I'm like, actually,

1275
01:14:51,640 --> 01:14:52,920
Speaker 1: a lot of the people that I know who went

1276
01:14:53,000 --> 01:14:56,080
Speaker 1: to serve had nothing but options and had excelled in

1277
01:14:56,200 --> 01:14:59,839
Speaker 1: everything they had ever done, and could have done anything

1278
01:14:59,840 --> 01:15:01,960
Speaker 1: they wanted to do, even if they hadn't excelled at

1279
01:15:02,000 --> 01:15:04,560
Speaker 1: everything they'd ever done, but they wanted to serve the

1280
01:15:04,640 --> 01:15:06,679
Speaker 1: United States Marine Corps. They wanted to serve the United

1281
01:15:06,720 --> 01:15:10,920
Speaker 1: States military. You know that this guy is not this

1282
01:15:10,920 --> 01:15:14,639
Speaker 1: this idiot who was speaking about this is not uh,

1283
01:15:15,360 --> 01:15:17,479
Speaker 1: he's almost not worth the time that I've already spent

1284
01:15:17,560 --> 01:15:20,920
Speaker 1: on him. But I do think that it's for for one,

1285
01:15:21,560 --> 01:15:23,800
Speaker 1: it's it gives me an opportunity to say that I

1286
01:15:23,840 --> 01:15:28,680
Speaker 1: was always so impressed, uh, both in my time in

1287
01:15:28,720 --> 01:15:31,360
Speaker 1: Iraq and Afghanistan and then just state side as well.

1288
01:15:31,400 --> 01:15:34,799
Speaker 1: I spent time at lots of different military facilities doing training,

1289
01:15:34,880 --> 01:15:38,160
Speaker 1: and I guess I don't know the state side stuff

1290
01:15:38,160 --> 01:15:39,960
Speaker 1: I can probably talk about, although not all of it's

1291
01:15:39,960 --> 01:15:41,479
Speaker 1: on of it and not allowed to talk about. Uh.

1292
01:15:42,120 --> 01:15:44,479
Speaker 1: But I was always so impressed with our military, and

1293
01:15:44,680 --> 01:15:46,760
Speaker 1: uh it was such an honor to be around them

1294
01:15:46,760 --> 01:15:50,439
Speaker 1: as a civilian intelligence analyst and to be even some

1295
01:15:50,520 --> 01:15:53,439
Speaker 1: little small part of what they were doing day to

1296
01:15:53,520 --> 01:15:57,479
Speaker 1: day overseas. And and then also it's just it is

1297
01:15:57,520 --> 01:16:00,439
Speaker 1: a reminder for me, or for all of us, that

1298
01:16:00,520 --> 01:16:05,760
Speaker 1: there exists on the left, this this distaste for the

1299
01:16:05,760 --> 01:16:08,000
Speaker 1: military that I think just has to come from a

1300
01:16:08,080 --> 01:16:11,320
Speaker 1: sense of the uh well, one of a wild ignorance

1301
01:16:11,320 --> 01:16:12,960
Speaker 1: of what the milit This guy doesn't know an even

1302
01:16:12,960 --> 01:16:15,120
Speaker 1: milit he doesn't know anything. This guy is a complete imbecile.

1303
01:16:15,200 --> 01:16:18,200
Speaker 1: But also for a lot of a lot of leftists,

1304
01:16:18,240 --> 01:16:22,400
Speaker 1: the military just makes them uncomfortable. It makes them feel,

1305
01:16:22,880 --> 01:16:25,000
Speaker 1: you know, that that there are people who would be

1306
01:16:25,080 --> 01:16:27,560
Speaker 1: willing to sacrifice what those in our military do and

1307
01:16:27,680 --> 01:16:32,360
Speaker 1: and have the virtues of those who serve in uniform.

1308
01:16:32,400 --> 01:16:34,800
Speaker 1: It makes the people that would criticize the military just

1309
01:16:34,840 --> 01:16:38,000
Speaker 1: makes them feel so uncomfortable and small and less then

1310
01:16:38,040 --> 01:16:52,360
Speaker 1: so they lash out other shows just talk at you

1311
01:16:52,720 --> 01:16:55,960
Speaker 1: in the Freedom Hud. We have a mission. We fight

1312
01:16:56,040 --> 01:16:59,240
Speaker 1: for the truth in a team effort and buck us

1313
01:16:59,280 --> 01:17:06,879
Speaker 1: back with our next play. There's been talk of raids

1314
01:17:07,240 --> 01:17:11,400
Speaker 1: on California businesses for a while. I'm saying that it's happened.

1315
01:17:11,520 --> 01:17:15,680
Speaker 1: This week is seventies seven businesses in northern California. Immigrations

1316
01:17:15,680 --> 01:17:20,439
Speaker 1: and Customs enforcement officers have gone in, and let's say raids.

1317
01:17:20,479 --> 01:17:22,320
Speaker 1: They make it sound like they're swooping in there with

1318
01:17:22,360 --> 01:17:24,720
Speaker 1: swat teams and guys who are repelling off the helicopters.

1319
01:17:24,960 --> 01:17:28,080
Speaker 1: Move Move Move. It's not like that they show up,

1320
01:17:28,479 --> 01:17:33,240
Speaker 1: probably wearing windbreakers that say ice on them, Ice ice baby,

1321
01:17:35,760 --> 01:17:38,800
Speaker 1: And you know they probably show up and they say, hey,

1322
01:17:39,000 --> 01:17:41,160
Speaker 1: do you have papers for all your workers? And I'm

1323
01:17:41,280 --> 01:17:44,080
Speaker 1: I'm guessing it's I'm not saying it's a pleasant experience,

1324
01:17:44,080 --> 01:17:46,439
Speaker 1: but I don't think it's They're not exactly rolling the

1325
01:17:46,479 --> 01:17:49,320
Speaker 1: flash bangs in there, like weir, you may have illegal

1326
01:17:49,360 --> 01:17:53,880
Speaker 1: workers in this meat processing factory. Move Move Move. I

1327
01:17:53,880 --> 01:17:55,400
Speaker 1: don't think that's what the way that it goes. But

1328
01:17:55,439 --> 01:17:57,479
Speaker 1: I'm sure that they've gone in and they're checking the workers,

1329
01:17:57,520 --> 01:18:02,240
Speaker 1: and in California, that makes businesses nerve. I wonder what

1330
01:18:02,240 --> 01:18:07,559
Speaker 1: what percentage of hourly wage paying businesses in California have

1331
01:18:07,560 --> 01:18:11,439
Speaker 1: have at least one illegal immig work. I have no idea.

1332
01:18:11,560 --> 01:18:13,120
Speaker 1: That's not like a retroical question where I'm about to

1333
01:18:13,120 --> 01:18:15,160
Speaker 1: say and I'm bucked. So I've got an answer, but

1334
01:18:15,200 --> 01:18:19,920
Speaker 1: I'm guessing it's probably pretty high. But this is one

1335
01:18:19,960 --> 01:18:23,360
Speaker 1: of the many different facets of the discussion of immigration that,

1336
01:18:23,400 --> 01:18:25,760
Speaker 1: as I've been said, we're gonna have. But you know,

1337
01:18:26,280 --> 01:18:28,320
Speaker 1: then you get into some of the media on this

1338
01:18:28,400 --> 01:18:31,639
Speaker 1: and you think they need to do some more were

1339
01:18:31,680 --> 01:18:36,760
Speaker 1: research on these topics. Uh. Joy Read, who is a

1340
01:18:36,840 --> 01:18:41,160
Speaker 1: host at MSNBC. Now, look, we've had some we've heard

1341
01:18:41,200 --> 01:18:43,240
Speaker 1: some dumb things said. This week on air, we had

1342
01:18:43,640 --> 01:18:50,080
Speaker 1: Kirsten Gillibrand with chained migration. So that was pretty bad

1343
01:18:50,120 --> 01:18:52,040
Speaker 1: for a sitting US senator. Joy Read is not a

1344
01:18:52,080 --> 01:18:54,560
Speaker 1: sitting US senator, but she is a host at MSNBC,

1345
01:18:54,720 --> 01:18:56,400
Speaker 1: and I'm assuming she gets paid a whole lot of

1346
01:18:56,400 --> 01:19:01,000
Speaker 1: money to do that job. And she weighed in on

1347
01:19:01,080 --> 01:19:04,800
Speaker 1: the issue of MS thirteen and here's how it went.

1348
01:19:05,200 --> 01:19:07,320
Speaker 1: And give the speech tonight in which he makes it

1349
01:19:07,360 --> 01:19:09,960
Speaker 1: sound like the biggest issue in the United States are

1350
01:19:10,000 --> 01:19:13,160
Speaker 1: the biggest one is MS thirteen, a gang nobody that

1351
01:19:13,200 --> 01:19:15,400
Speaker 1: doesn't watch Foxos has ever heard of. So it makes

1352
01:19:15,439 --> 01:19:19,719
Speaker 1: it sound like they're the biggest Nobody that's never watched

1353
01:19:19,800 --> 01:19:21,920
Speaker 1: Fox News has ever heard of m S thirteen. How

1354
01:19:22,040 --> 01:19:28,280
Speaker 1: Mara Salvatrucha thirteen an international criminal gang that has infiltrated

1355
01:19:29,280 --> 01:19:34,680
Speaker 1: UH dozens of states across the country. A gang that

1356
01:19:34,800 --> 01:19:37,720
Speaker 1: is well known actually in the DC area. Some of

1357
01:19:37,760 --> 01:19:41,679
Speaker 1: you who live in some parts of sort of sort

1358
01:19:41,720 --> 01:19:45,720
Speaker 1: of the Beltway region will be like, yep, we've had

1359
01:19:45,960 --> 01:19:50,280
Speaker 1: really terrible problems with m S thirteen. There were two

1360
01:19:50,400 --> 01:19:52,240
Speaker 1: young women murdered in their parents with the State of

1361
01:19:52,240 --> 01:19:55,280
Speaker 1: the Union address that was in Long Island. You're in

1362
01:19:55,320 --> 01:19:59,200
Speaker 1: the New York areas at an hour or so from

1363
01:19:59,200 --> 01:20:03,720
Speaker 1: where I am doing this show right now. So and

1364
01:20:03,720 --> 01:20:07,280
Speaker 1: and the gangs, yes, they say they started in US prisons,

1365
01:20:07,280 --> 01:20:10,880
Speaker 1: but their local the locusts of power. Oh maybe because

1366
01:20:10,880 --> 01:20:14,280
Speaker 1: the border is porous, and so MS thirteen gang members

1367
01:20:14,280 --> 01:20:16,520
Speaker 1: can go back and forth. And that's actually an advantage,

1368
01:20:16,520 --> 01:20:19,080
Speaker 1: isn't it to be able to leave the country where

1369
01:20:19,080 --> 01:20:21,439
Speaker 1: you're doing the crimes and go to a country where

1370
01:20:21,439 --> 01:20:26,040
Speaker 1: you can have relative safe haven because there's no effective

1371
01:20:26,080 --> 01:20:30,439
Speaker 1: rule of law in place right Al Salvador, Honduras, parts

1372
01:20:30,439 --> 01:20:33,679
Speaker 1: of Mexico. But this is what you're going to get,

1373
01:20:34,160 --> 01:20:40,120
Speaker 1: the propagation of ignorance when it comes to immigration, because

1374
01:20:41,120 --> 01:20:45,320
Speaker 1: they would rather tell people lies about things like m S.

1375
01:20:45,400 --> 01:20:49,559
Speaker 1: Thirteen and make this a make gang activity that ties

1376
01:20:49,600 --> 01:20:52,760
Speaker 1: to border security and immigration, making an issue of just

1377
01:20:53,160 --> 01:20:56,839
Speaker 1: Fox News making a problem of the of the Fox

1378
01:20:56,920 --> 01:21:00,720
Speaker 1: News sphere instead of having to attack to tackle it

1379
01:21:00,760 --> 01:21:03,800
Speaker 1: and deal with it, which you know, I think that

1380
01:21:04,160 --> 01:21:06,960
Speaker 1: once we start to force one of the most important

1381
01:21:06,960 --> 01:21:08,720
Speaker 1: things we could do for the immigration debate, in my

1382
01:21:10,280 --> 01:21:14,200
Speaker 1: humble opinion, would be to force states to start keeping

1383
01:21:14,280 --> 01:21:19,000
Speaker 1: much better stats on illegal alien crime and what's going

1384
01:21:19,040 --> 01:21:22,240
Speaker 1: on in the States that has to do with illegal

1385
01:21:22,280 --> 01:21:26,080
Speaker 1: aliens breaking the law. In general, the Feds have pretty

1386
01:21:26,120 --> 01:21:29,360
Speaker 1: decent stats and and there's a high percentage, especially when

1387
01:21:29,400 --> 01:21:33,120
Speaker 1: you add in drug crimes, a lot of illegal alien

1388
01:21:33,200 --> 01:21:37,559
Speaker 1: drug crime, and so that's already well established. But if

1389
01:21:37,560 --> 01:21:39,560
Speaker 1: you're talking about violent crime, as I've been mentioned to

1390
01:21:39,600 --> 01:21:41,160
Speaker 1: you on the show, then you've really got to get

1391
01:21:41,200 --> 01:21:43,840
Speaker 1: into what's going on at the state level. That's where

1392
01:21:43,840 --> 01:21:49,280
Speaker 1: you get state prisons and the activities of law enforcement

1393
01:21:49,400 --> 01:21:52,040
Speaker 1: that wouldn't be federal necessarily, And that's where I think

1394
01:21:52,080 --> 01:21:54,839
Speaker 1: you'd see that this is a is a big issue

1395
01:21:55,360 --> 01:21:59,080
Speaker 1: m and MS thirteen is frightening because I've told you

1396
01:21:59,120 --> 01:22:03,559
Speaker 1: it's also it's incredibly violent, and the gang initiations are

1397
01:22:03,600 --> 01:22:09,519
Speaker 1: are brutal, beyond the brutal, beyond imagination. Um. But they're

1398
01:22:09,560 --> 01:22:14,760
Speaker 1: also often doing the bidding of bigger transnational criminal organizations.

1399
01:22:15,479 --> 01:22:18,840
Speaker 1: And this is all part of the storyline that you

1400
01:22:18,840 --> 01:22:22,240
Speaker 1: would be hearing if the media cared to talk much

1401
01:22:22,240 --> 01:22:25,880
Speaker 1: about this, but they have, and I would also not.

1402
01:22:26,280 --> 01:22:28,680
Speaker 1: You see how it's always whenever we're talking about legal immigration,

1403
01:22:29,200 --> 01:22:34,280
Speaker 1: there's always this focus on Well, of course, the Valedictorians

1404
01:22:35,040 --> 01:22:38,720
Speaker 1: the most sympathetic stories possible because they're trying to push

1405
01:22:38,720 --> 01:22:41,599
Speaker 1: a narrative. I get that. Well, you'll notice that they

1406
01:22:41,680 --> 01:22:43,080
Speaker 1: you don't hear a lot of stories. You don't read

1407
01:22:43,080 --> 01:22:45,720
Speaker 1: a lot of stories about other forms of legal immigration

1408
01:22:45,760 --> 01:22:48,920
Speaker 1: that are going on, that aren't coming from south of

1409
01:22:48,960 --> 01:22:53,080
Speaker 1: the border, that aren't involving Mexico and Central American countries. Yeah,

1410
01:22:53,640 --> 01:22:56,200
Speaker 1: are we allowed to have it? Is it racist? Is

1411
01:22:56,200 --> 01:22:59,360
Speaker 1: it xenophobic? Does it make you a bad person if

1412
01:22:59,360 --> 01:23:02,840
Speaker 1: you think that a people who come here from China

1413
01:23:02,880 --> 01:23:06,040
Speaker 1: specifically to have a baby on US soil so that

1414
01:23:06,080 --> 01:23:09,520
Speaker 1: the baby has citizenship, but then go back to China

1415
01:23:09,800 --> 01:23:12,360
Speaker 1: right away, so the person is raised in China but

1416
01:23:12,360 --> 01:23:14,800
Speaker 1: then has US citizenship. And this means that later on

1417
01:23:14,960 --> 01:23:18,280
Speaker 1: they can come here for for school or for whatever

1418
01:23:18,320 --> 01:23:21,280
Speaker 1: they want to do. Are we allowed to object to that?

1419
01:23:22,400 --> 01:23:26,320
Speaker 1: Is that not scamming the system? I think actually some

1420
01:23:26,360 --> 01:23:29,479
Speaker 1: guy just got in trouble, by the way in I

1421
01:23:29,479 --> 01:23:34,680
Speaker 1: think it was Massachusetts for marrying nine women so that

1422
01:23:34,720 --> 01:23:38,920
Speaker 1: they could become permanent residents. Right, it was a fraudulent

1423
01:23:39,400 --> 01:23:42,639
Speaker 1: marriage scheme. These are there are all these different ways

1424
01:23:42,680 --> 01:23:46,559
Speaker 1: that people are abusing the system and enforcement is very low.

1425
01:23:46,600 --> 01:23:48,400
Speaker 1: I mean, look, it's not like the guy got to

1426
01:23:48,520 --> 01:23:50,519
Speaker 1: wife number two or three and they figured out that

1427
01:23:50,560 --> 01:23:56,560
Speaker 1: he was engaged in fraudulent marriage nine and he was busy.

1428
01:23:56,680 --> 01:23:58,720
Speaker 1: That's a lot of that's a lot of marriages. That's like,

1429
01:23:58,920 --> 01:24:01,880
Speaker 1: that's like Larry King novel marriages. He's got I think

1430
01:24:01,880 --> 01:24:05,519
Speaker 1: he's yeah, I went there like seven or eight. Hey,

1431
01:24:05,560 --> 01:24:10,439
Speaker 1: buck back off, I'm lucky number seven. But Larry, Larry,

1432
01:24:10,439 --> 01:24:13,760
Speaker 1: I think he managed to seven He's managed to seven wives. Um,

1433
01:24:13,800 --> 01:24:15,519
Speaker 1: but is he still on that channel, by the way,

1434
01:24:15,560 --> 01:24:18,200
Speaker 1: the one that's the he wasn't even a weird you know,

1435
01:24:18,240 --> 01:24:20,680
Speaker 1: he's still doing a thing, right. I forget what it

1436
01:24:20,720 --> 01:24:22,720
Speaker 1: is when of these guys, he was just never ever

1437
01:24:22,720 --> 01:24:25,400
Speaker 1: going to give up, never done with, never done with media,

1438
01:24:25,439 --> 01:24:28,040
Speaker 1: and never done with you know, Hey, there's always time

1439
01:24:28,040 --> 01:24:31,960
Speaker 1: for another wife. But yeah, this guy had had nine people. Buck,

1440
01:24:32,000 --> 01:24:33,519
Speaker 1: it could have been true love the whole time, with

1441
01:24:33,560 --> 01:24:37,160
Speaker 1: all the different ones. Okay, I mean, look whatever, it's

1442
01:24:37,200 --> 01:24:40,320
Speaker 1: not my life. Um, but the different ways that the

1443
01:24:40,320 --> 01:24:46,519
Speaker 1: immigration system are scammed, it just should be bothersome to

1444
01:24:46,520 --> 01:24:48,960
Speaker 1: all Americans. And that's never the discussion we get to have.

1445
01:24:49,040 --> 01:24:52,439
Speaker 1: We never get to talk about fixes. It's just all

1446
01:24:52,520 --> 01:24:55,040
Speaker 1: we've heard about our dreamers. I want more of a

1447
01:24:55,080 --> 01:24:58,800
Speaker 1: discussion of Remember the Trump administration set up in office

1448
01:24:58,840 --> 01:25:02,679
Speaker 1: to set up the statistics of illegal alien crime. I'd

1449
01:25:02,720 --> 01:25:04,360
Speaker 1: like to know what those numbers are. We should all

1450
01:25:04,400 --> 01:25:06,840
Speaker 1: be much more familiar with that. We should know what

1451
01:25:07,000 --> 01:25:10,920
Speaker 1: some of the statistics involved here are. That makes makes

1452
01:25:10,960 --> 01:25:15,240
Speaker 1: it possible for us to make better decisions. Show, Um,

1453
01:25:15,360 --> 01:25:18,840
Speaker 1: we're gonna get into a roll call obviously later on. Also,

1454
01:25:18,880 --> 01:25:22,280
Speaker 1: we've got a phenomenal congressional candidate joining was a former

1455
01:25:22,360 --> 01:25:25,120
Speaker 1: Navy seal. He's gonna tell you his story, and we've

1456
01:25:25,160 --> 01:25:27,360
Speaker 1: got a lot more coming. Oh and also Miko on

1457
01:25:27,439 --> 01:25:30,320
Speaker 1: Morning Joe said something interesting for a change. We'll be

1458
01:25:30,320 --> 01:25:34,320
Speaker 1: back with that. Stay with me. I do not watch

1459
01:25:35,080 --> 01:25:38,080
Speaker 1: Morning Joe because it is on MSNBC. I also don't

1460
01:25:38,080 --> 01:25:40,479
Speaker 1: watch it because I think it's a smug, boring show

1461
01:25:40,520 --> 01:25:45,160
Speaker 1: full of people who don't say anything particularly insightful. But occasionally,

1462
01:25:45,760 --> 01:25:49,960
Speaker 1: any show that's on cable news might stumble upon an

1463
01:25:49,960 --> 01:25:55,720
Speaker 1: interesting exchange, and that actually happened on Morning Joe earlier today.

1464
01:25:55,760 --> 01:25:58,439
Speaker 1: So this guy, Michael Wolf, we all know him because

1465
01:25:58,439 --> 01:26:03,920
Speaker 1: of fire and fury. He's been getting all kinds of

1466
01:26:04,200 --> 01:26:07,760
Speaker 1: heat because he came out and said things like if

1467
01:26:07,800 --> 01:26:10,200
Speaker 1: it rings true, it is true. And he is now

1468
01:26:10,479 --> 01:26:17,160
Speaker 1: a h an emblem, a symbol of the era of

1469
01:26:17,400 --> 01:26:22,200
Speaker 1: fake news, anti Trump journalism in which we find ourselves.

1470
01:26:22,520 --> 01:26:26,360
Speaker 1: And he has said some really nasty stuff about various

1471
01:26:26,520 --> 01:26:31,560
Speaker 1: people in Trump's orbit, including that the really the nastiest

1472
01:26:32,520 --> 01:26:36,280
Speaker 1: has to do with the insinuations that he has made

1473
01:26:36,439 --> 01:26:41,519
Speaker 1: recently that Nicky Haley, the U S Ambassador United Nations

1474
01:26:41,840 --> 01:26:44,840
Speaker 1: and a former governors you all know that she has

1475
01:26:44,840 --> 01:26:47,800
Speaker 1: had an affair with Donald Trump, which is such a

1476
01:26:48,400 --> 01:26:51,600
Speaker 1: grotesque and unfair charge that even repeating the charge that

1477
01:26:51,640 --> 01:26:54,960
Speaker 1: he made makes me feel uncomfortable because it feels like

1478
01:26:55,000 --> 01:26:58,679
Speaker 1: it's something that should not be repeated, even as as

1479
01:26:58,760 --> 01:27:02,240
Speaker 1: quoting someone else. But we have have to smash the lie,

1480
01:27:02,320 --> 01:27:04,160
Speaker 1: and to smash the lie, you have to define it.

1481
01:27:04,200 --> 01:27:06,800
Speaker 1: You do have to say it. And he wrote in

1482
01:27:06,840 --> 01:27:09,479
Speaker 1: the end of the book about how Nicki Haley's spent

1483
01:27:09,720 --> 01:27:11,920
Speaker 1: very close to Trump talking about her future, spending a

1484
01:27:11,960 --> 01:27:15,519
Speaker 1: lone time, and then he went on the Bill Maher show, um,

1485
01:27:15,680 --> 01:27:18,439
Speaker 1: which I for a whole bunch of reasons, have have

1486
01:27:18,600 --> 01:27:20,920
Speaker 1: never been asked to appear on. I don't think ever

1487
01:27:21,000 --> 01:27:23,960
Speaker 1: will be because I would smoke fools, because that's what

1488
01:27:24,000 --> 01:27:28,080
Speaker 1: I do. But the Bill mar Show had this guy on,

1489
01:27:28,120 --> 01:27:29,840
Speaker 1: I think it was last week. I did not watch.

1490
01:27:30,160 --> 01:27:33,680
Speaker 1: I do not watch it. And he said, well, if

1491
01:27:33,680 --> 01:27:37,519
Speaker 1: you want to know something else that you know that's

1492
01:27:37,560 --> 01:27:40,280
Speaker 1: interesting about Trump and he's having an affair, And they said,

1493
01:27:40,280 --> 01:27:41,640
Speaker 1: what do you mean. He goes, well, you know, if

1494
01:27:41,640 --> 01:27:43,960
Speaker 1: you look at the end of my book, you'll get

1495
01:27:43,960 --> 01:27:47,240
Speaker 1: a hint. He was not subtle about it. And so

1496
01:27:47,320 --> 01:27:50,840
Speaker 1: he's basically he's basically sad that Nicky Haley he's having

1497
01:27:50,880 --> 01:27:53,000
Speaker 1: an affair at the president United States, which is just

1498
01:27:53,920 --> 01:27:55,439
Speaker 1: I mean, this guy is a client. I want my

1499
01:27:56,040 --> 01:27:59,040
Speaker 1: twelve dollars back for the kindle download of this guy's book,

1500
01:27:59,080 --> 01:28:04,160
Speaker 1: Fire and Fury. But Mika, oh, look at this. Mika

1501
01:28:04,280 --> 01:28:08,280
Speaker 1: had had enough. Finally, here here is how this exchange went.

1502
01:28:09,280 --> 01:28:12,880
Speaker 1: Let's put this next question, uh, in the entire credibility

1503
01:28:12,920 --> 01:28:16,040
Speaker 1: of your book, which was written really quickly. Excuse me,

1504
01:28:16,280 --> 01:28:20,240
Speaker 1: your book. Let's let's let's put it on this next question.

1505
01:28:21,080 --> 01:28:25,080
Speaker 1: Do you regret inferring anything about Nicki Haley. I. I

1506
01:28:25,120 --> 01:28:29,439
Speaker 1: didn't infer anything about Nicki Haley. What I inferred was

1507
01:28:29,560 --> 01:28:34,559
Speaker 1: that the president is um um is that many of

1508
01:28:34,560 --> 01:28:37,479
Speaker 1: the people around the president believe he is still involved

1509
01:28:37,520 --> 01:28:40,240
Speaker 1: with various women. But you said she spent a lot

1510
01:28:40,280 --> 01:28:44,559
Speaker 1: of time in private time with that's I totally totally.

1511
01:28:44,960 --> 01:28:48,519
Speaker 1: I mean, that's exactly what people report and now, and

1512
01:28:48,640 --> 01:28:52,800
Speaker 1: specifically that was about her bid to become the Secretary

1513
01:28:52,840 --> 01:28:56,080
Speaker 1: of State. So everywhere in the White House they were

1514
01:28:56,160 --> 01:29:00,479
Speaker 1: suddenly in a in a in quite a pen that

1515
01:29:00,600 --> 01:29:07,040
Speaker 1: this was actually happening. Has embraced it. Um, I'm going

1516
01:29:07,120 --> 01:29:09,760
Speaker 1: to go as far as to say that you might

1517
01:29:09,760 --> 01:29:12,360
Speaker 1: be having a fun time playing. So hold on, so

1518
01:29:12,400 --> 01:29:14,600
Speaker 1: you see what he's doing there by the way, you know,

1519
01:29:14,720 --> 01:29:17,439
Speaker 1: depending on which audience this guy Wolf is talking to,

1520
01:29:18,400 --> 01:29:21,000
Speaker 1: he he just changes what he's saying or changes what

1521
01:29:21,040 --> 01:29:24,439
Speaker 1: he's inferring. And she's got him here on this one

1522
01:29:24,479 --> 01:29:28,200
Speaker 1: because it is not it has not been murky what

1523
01:29:28,400 --> 01:29:31,439
Speaker 1: his insinuation has been. She's not saying you explicitly said it,

1524
01:29:31,520 --> 01:29:34,280
Speaker 1: but you you know, this is like saying, oh, you

1525
01:29:34,320 --> 01:29:36,840
Speaker 1: know who I think is the dumbest person in Congress?

1526
01:29:37,479 --> 01:29:42,720
Speaker 1: Franci loc Well, I think people would figure out who

1527
01:29:42,760 --> 01:29:45,200
Speaker 1: I'm referring to, right, you know, it's it's not I

1528
01:29:45,240 --> 01:29:48,320
Speaker 1: didn't technically name anyone in Congress, but it's I'm not

1529
01:29:48,400 --> 01:29:52,240
Speaker 1: I'm not being I'm not being clever there. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

1530
01:29:52,360 --> 01:29:56,960
Speaker 1: you're not big clever. So he continues on with this,

1531
01:29:58,520 --> 01:30:02,240
Speaker 1: let's put this next question, Uh, the entire credibility of

1532
01:30:02,240 --> 01:30:06,040
Speaker 1: your book, which was written really quickly, excuse me, your book.

1533
01:30:07,360 --> 01:30:10,439
Speaker 1: Let's let's let's put it on this next question, do

1534
01:30:10,439 --> 01:30:14,639
Speaker 1: you regret inferring anything about Nicki Haley. I. I didn't

1535
01:30:14,680 --> 01:30:19,040
Speaker 1: infer anything about Nicki Haley. What I inferred was that

1536
01:30:19,439 --> 01:30:23,880
Speaker 1: the president is um um is that many of the

1537
01:30:23,880 --> 01:30:26,880
Speaker 1: people around the president believe he is still involved with

1538
01:30:27,080 --> 01:30:29,479
Speaker 1: various women. Now, but you said she spent a lot

1539
01:30:29,520 --> 01:30:33,759
Speaker 1: of time in private time with that's I totally, totally.

1540
01:30:34,200 --> 01:30:37,760
Speaker 1: I mean, that's exactly what people report and now, and

1541
01:30:37,840 --> 01:30:42,040
Speaker 1: specifically that was about her bid to become the Secretary

1542
01:30:42,040 --> 01:30:45,280
Speaker 1: of State. So everywhere in the White House they were

1543
01:30:45,400 --> 01:30:49,680
Speaker 1: suddenly in a in a in quite a panic that

1544
01:30:49,800 --> 01:30:55,560
Speaker 1: this was actually happenings why they pushed has embraced it. Um,

1545
01:30:55,960 --> 01:30:59,320
Speaker 1: I'm going to go as far as might be having

1546
01:30:59,360 --> 01:31:01,800
Speaker 1: a fun time. I'm playing a little game dancing around this.

1547
01:31:01,960 --> 01:31:06,679
Speaker 1: But you're slurring a woman. It's disgraceful. It's and and um,

1548
01:31:06,760 --> 01:31:11,120
Speaker 1: Mika again, she has been accused of nothing. She has

1549
01:31:11,160 --> 01:31:14,240
Speaker 1: decided to deny what she has not been accused of.

1550
01:31:14,640 --> 01:31:17,680
Speaker 1: Certainly I didn't accuse her of this. The wait, are

1551
01:31:17,680 --> 01:31:20,320
Speaker 1: you are you suggesting that much suggesting the language is

1552
01:31:20,360 --> 01:31:23,559
Speaker 1: not ambiguous in any way, and the things that you've

1553
01:31:23,560 --> 01:31:26,200
Speaker 1: said in the way you've come. Are you kidding? You're

1554
01:31:26,240 --> 01:31:29,280
Speaker 1: on the Saturday Morning Joe. We don't be as here, well, no,

1555
01:31:29,400 --> 01:31:34,360
Speaker 1: not of a set of Morning Joe. Are you kidding me?

1556
01:31:36,400 --> 01:31:40,200
Speaker 1: If you don't get it, you don't get about I'm sorry,

1557
01:31:40,479 --> 01:31:42,559
Speaker 1: this is awkward. You're here on the set with us.

1558
01:31:42,600 --> 01:31:45,400
Speaker 1: But we're done, Michael Will thank you. We're gonna go

1559
01:31:45,439 --> 01:31:47,519
Speaker 1: to break now. Look I give her some credit for

1560
01:31:47,560 --> 01:31:49,799
Speaker 1: finally dropping the hammer there. Although I love this. Excuse

1561
01:31:49,880 --> 01:31:53,240
Speaker 1: excuse me, sir, this is the set of Morning Joe.

1562
01:31:53,439 --> 01:31:57,040
Speaker 1: Like like this is, you know, sixty minutes in the

1563
01:31:57,080 --> 01:31:59,400
Speaker 1: eighties or something like. Just just just calm yourself there

1564
01:31:59,400 --> 01:32:00,640
Speaker 1: a little bit. All right, I've seen a lot of

1565
01:32:00,640 --> 01:32:06,080
Speaker 1: stuff on Morning Joe. It's not impressive. But this guy,

1566
01:32:06,120 --> 01:32:08,559
Speaker 1: this is why this matters. I mean, forget about them,

1567
01:32:08,640 --> 01:32:10,800
Speaker 1: get thing because at this point that he's become he's

1568
01:32:10,840 --> 01:32:14,479
Speaker 1: become pretty toxic. Well you'll notice that when it was useful,

1569
01:32:14,560 --> 01:32:16,639
Speaker 1: the media was all playing along. They're all going on

1570
01:32:16,760 --> 01:32:18,759
Speaker 1: with this, and I told you I want my twelve

1571
01:32:18,760 --> 01:32:20,920
Speaker 1: dollars back from Kindle or whatever it was for doubling

1572
01:32:20,960 --> 01:32:25,439
Speaker 1: this guy's nonsense book. But when it was damaging the

1573
01:32:25,479 --> 01:32:28,479
Speaker 1: Trump you know, this is a common theme when it

1574
01:32:28,600 --> 01:32:31,360
Speaker 1: was useful for them. There, Oh, we gotta look at

1575
01:32:31,360 --> 01:32:33,200
Speaker 1: this guy, and we got a book him for all

1576
01:32:33,320 --> 01:32:36,600
Speaker 1: these interviews and everything else. You know, you look at

1577
01:32:36,640 --> 01:32:38,160
Speaker 1: the way they treat him, and then you compare that

1578
01:32:38,240 --> 01:32:40,240
Speaker 1: to say, I don't know, compare that to like the

1579
01:32:40,280 --> 01:32:43,439
Speaker 1: way the media responded to and Coulter's book Audios America,

1580
01:32:43,479 --> 01:32:47,000
Speaker 1: which Trump read and then took some messaging from to

1581
01:32:47,120 --> 01:32:50,120
Speaker 1: become the next president of the United States. Oh no,

1582
01:32:50,200 --> 01:32:51,840
Speaker 1: I can't have you know, they they've got all these

1583
01:32:51,880 --> 01:32:53,680
Speaker 1: problems about and she talks about it on air all

1584
01:32:53,720 --> 01:32:57,320
Speaker 1: the time. But this guy, Michael Wolf, he comes along

1585
01:32:57,360 --> 01:33:00,519
Speaker 1: with this book. He's just saying nons and stuff. You

1586
01:33:00,560 --> 01:33:02,600
Speaker 1: read the book, you go, there's no way, and you

1587
01:33:02,640 --> 01:33:06,400
Speaker 1: can always tell to this whole reconstructed conversations. I can't

1588
01:33:06,400 --> 01:33:08,840
Speaker 1: remember what I said to like my family or my

1589
01:33:08,880 --> 01:33:11,920
Speaker 1: girlfriend twelve hours ago. There's notion that your journalists like.

1590
01:33:11,960 --> 01:33:14,960
Speaker 1: And then he furrowed his brow and said something that's

1591
01:33:15,040 --> 01:33:18,080
Speaker 1: just perfect for my book right then, like, no way,

1592
01:33:18,640 --> 01:33:22,439
Speaker 1: no way. I've sat in a fair amount of high

1593
01:33:22,560 --> 01:33:27,719
Speaker 1: level government meetings. I've been around people and important national

1594
01:33:27,760 --> 01:33:31,840
Speaker 1: security topics were being discussed, and it's very rare for

1595
01:33:31,840 --> 01:33:34,720
Speaker 1: someone to say something that you're like, Wow, that's a

1596
01:33:34,760 --> 01:33:37,360
Speaker 1: real doozy. That's quite that's quite a line, you know,

1597
01:33:37,960 --> 01:33:41,400
Speaker 1: Mr President, I don't dance. You know, that's not It

1598
01:33:41,400 --> 01:33:43,559
Speaker 1: works in clear and present danger, but that's not the

1599
01:33:43,600 --> 01:33:47,880
Speaker 1: way the old Potomac two step Jack. You guys remember

1600
01:33:47,880 --> 01:33:50,320
Speaker 1: that scene in clear and present danger. It's good, Yeah, exactly.

1601
01:33:50,320 --> 01:33:52,559
Speaker 1: You know you're going to keep this one in your

1602
01:33:52,600 --> 01:33:56,240
Speaker 1: back pocket. I do sound just like the President, So

1603
01:33:56,360 --> 01:33:58,519
Speaker 1: I'm just putting that out there. Getting a little heat

1604
01:33:58,600 --> 01:34:00,840
Speaker 1: lately for some of my impressions. But go back and

1605
01:34:00,880 --> 01:34:02,960
Speaker 1: watch that movie. I could be that actor whatever his

1606
01:34:03,080 --> 01:34:08,519
Speaker 1: name is. Anyway. But this whole Michael wolfbook, they used it.

1607
01:34:08,560 --> 01:34:11,640
Speaker 1: They trashed Trump yea to borrow from the one and

1608
01:34:11,680 --> 01:34:14,760
Speaker 1: only for a second Rush Limbaugh, the whole notion of

1609
01:34:14,760 --> 01:34:16,719
Speaker 1: the drive by media. The reason it's such a great

1610
01:34:16,720 --> 01:34:19,439
Speaker 1: thing to say it's stuck for solo because it's so true,

1611
01:34:19,880 --> 01:34:22,080
Speaker 1: right Michael Wolf. It's like he's the guy in the

1612
01:34:22,120 --> 01:34:25,080
Speaker 1: back seat with two tech nine just spraying all over

1613
01:34:25,120 --> 01:34:27,599
Speaker 1: the place. And yeah, you know, now they'll now, they'll

1614
01:34:27,640 --> 01:34:29,599
Speaker 1: let him go to prison. But you know they drove

1615
01:34:29,680 --> 01:34:31,800
Speaker 1: him there. You know, they let him do his thing,

1616
01:34:32,240 --> 01:34:34,200
Speaker 1: They let him smear a bunch of people, and they

1617
01:34:34,280 --> 01:34:39,360
Speaker 1: let him it is. It is just appalling. And finally

1618
01:34:39,400 --> 01:34:41,680
Speaker 1: now he really gets called out for it, and it's

1619
01:34:41,720 --> 01:34:46,639
Speaker 1: on an issue, a me to issue, which is also

1620
01:34:46,680 --> 01:34:50,840
Speaker 1: a a place where you'll see plenty of big media

1621
01:34:50,880 --> 01:34:54,000
Speaker 1: names playing folks in the news. This is now a

1622
01:34:54,040 --> 01:34:56,160
Speaker 1: brand issue for them, right. They want to be the

1623
01:34:56,200 --> 01:34:59,559
Speaker 1: person that speaks out against any an me too stuff,

1624
01:34:59,600 --> 01:35:03,240
Speaker 1: and uh, you know it's it's not an active bravery

1625
01:35:03,280 --> 01:35:05,640
Speaker 1: to stand up now and call it out for for

1626
01:35:05,840 --> 01:35:07,840
Speaker 1: me too. I will. This is kind of funny. I

1627
01:35:07,880 --> 01:35:09,960
Speaker 1: just I just saw this before today on the five,

1628
01:35:10,000 --> 01:35:12,720
Speaker 1: but there was a total change of pace. But they

1629
01:35:12,720 --> 01:35:15,439
Speaker 1: do text from mom. Do you ever see this? They have,

1630
01:35:15,520 --> 01:35:18,120
Speaker 1: some of them do these texts from their mom? I

1631
01:35:18,160 --> 01:35:21,599
Speaker 1: always I have some. I have some. It's pretty funny. Yeah.

1632
01:35:21,760 --> 01:35:25,040
Speaker 1: I have some conservative friends here in New York, and

1633
01:35:25,160 --> 01:35:28,240
Speaker 1: I I keep all of my personal correspondence in in

1634
01:35:28,840 --> 01:35:31,640
Speaker 1: privacy and always will unless they were to give me

1635
01:35:31,680 --> 01:35:34,280
Speaker 1: permission explicitly and say you can use this stuff, because

1636
01:35:34,280 --> 01:35:36,040
Speaker 1: I get great stuff. I'm like, man, I want to

1637
01:35:36,080 --> 01:35:38,200
Speaker 1: steal some of my friends lines and throw them on Twitter,

1638
01:35:38,280 --> 01:35:40,599
Speaker 1: and I get great stuff sent to me all the time.

1639
01:35:40,960 --> 01:35:43,880
Speaker 1: The conservative underground in New York City is a very

1640
01:35:45,200 --> 01:35:48,519
Speaker 1: very well well read and witty group of folks because

1641
01:35:48,520 --> 01:35:50,160
Speaker 1: we have to be you know, you gotta be ready

1642
01:35:50,160 --> 01:35:53,240
Speaker 1: for whatever. But that's I guess I'll have to think

1643
01:35:53,240 --> 01:35:54,720
Speaker 1: about a way to get that going another time. I

1644
01:35:54,760 --> 01:35:56,920
Speaker 1: would love to have some of my stealth conservative friends

1645
01:35:56,960 --> 01:35:58,680
Speaker 1: calling here. We'd have to give them. It would have

1646
01:35:58,680 --> 01:36:01,240
Speaker 1: to be like one of those shows where they do

1647
01:36:01,280 --> 01:36:03,720
Speaker 1: the guy who's in the witness protection or something, and

1648
01:36:03,720 --> 01:36:06,200
Speaker 1: they do the word you know they met. They make

1649
01:36:06,280 --> 01:36:09,160
Speaker 1: the voice all weird. I didn't do a good job

1650
01:36:09,160 --> 01:36:10,960
Speaker 1: of that impression at all, but and they blur out

1651
01:36:11,000 --> 01:36:13,360
Speaker 1: the face. We have to do that with the Conservatives

1652
01:36:13,360 --> 01:36:15,559
Speaker 1: because I want them get in trouble with their Wall

1653
01:36:15,600 --> 01:36:18,479
Speaker 1: Street jobs or whatever else they do here. But these

1654
01:36:18,520 --> 01:36:21,639
Speaker 1: are just segment ideas that I have. So uh yeah, anyway,

1655
01:36:21,840 --> 01:36:23,840
Speaker 1: so good for me. Back to Morning Joe. Good for

1656
01:36:23,880 --> 01:36:27,920
Speaker 1: me because she finally did something worth while on Morning Joe. Uh,

1657
01:36:27,960 --> 01:36:33,440
Speaker 1: we're gonna talk to a retired Navy seal Purple Heart recipient.

1658
01:36:33,840 --> 01:36:35,640
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk to him in just a moment here

1659
01:36:35,640 --> 01:36:38,200
Speaker 1: about his run for Congress. If fascinating, guy, Stay with

1660
01:36:38,200 --> 01:36:40,760
Speaker 1: me for that and much more. All right, everybody, So

1661
01:36:40,800 --> 01:36:43,240
Speaker 1: the midterms are always away, but we've already got some

1662
01:36:43,320 --> 01:36:46,360
Speaker 1: very interesting story shaping up, some different races across the

1663
01:36:46,400 --> 01:36:49,000
Speaker 1: ton of the country that are getting some attention. I

1664
01:36:49,000 --> 01:36:52,080
Speaker 1: want to introduce you to Dan Crenshaw. Dan is a

1665
01:36:52,200 --> 01:36:56,639
Speaker 1: retired lieutenant commander. He's running for Congress to replace retiring

1666
01:36:56,680 --> 01:37:01,720
Speaker 1: Republican Congressman Ted Poe. Crenshaw was medically retired after a

1667
01:37:01,840 --> 01:37:05,960
Speaker 1: ten year career in the Navy Seals. Dan revealed that

1668
01:37:06,000 --> 01:37:07,800
Speaker 1: he was hit by an I E. D blast in

1669
01:37:07,840 --> 01:37:10,920
Speaker 1: Afghanistan will on his third deployment. He lost his right

1670
01:37:11,000 --> 01:37:14,120
Speaker 1: eye and his left eye was badly damaged. He explains

1671
01:37:14,160 --> 01:37:16,920
Speaker 1: that after several miracle surgeries, he was able to regain

1672
01:37:17,000 --> 01:37:19,920
Speaker 1: sight in his left eye, and Dan Crenshaw retired the

1673
01:37:19,920 --> 01:37:23,559
Speaker 1: tenant Commander. Crenshaw is now running for Congress. Dahn, great

1674
01:37:23,560 --> 01:37:26,240
Speaker 1: to have you on, great to be here, Thank you

1675
01:37:26,280 --> 01:37:28,000
Speaker 1: for having me. All right, just just tell folks a

1676
01:37:28,000 --> 01:37:30,320
Speaker 1: little bit about your story. It's it's quite compelling, and

1677
01:37:30,360 --> 01:37:33,880
Speaker 1: it's good to see that people with backgrounds like yours

1678
01:37:33,920 --> 01:37:37,240
Speaker 1: are trying to get into the political arena. Yeah, I

1679
01:37:37,240 --> 01:37:39,559
Speaker 1: mean you you hit all the high points. Um did

1680
01:37:39,600 --> 01:37:43,400
Speaker 1: about five deployments overall. After I did get hurt, like

1681
01:37:43,600 --> 01:37:45,920
Speaker 1: I left the Navy kicking and screaming, I did two

1682
01:37:45,920 --> 01:37:48,200
Speaker 1: more deployments back to the Middle East, and then my

1683
01:37:48,280 --> 01:37:52,679
Speaker 1: last one two six team was in Korea mostly until

1684
01:37:52,800 --> 01:37:56,920
Speaker 1: the operations related. So, um, you know, one of the

1685
01:37:56,920 --> 01:37:58,919
Speaker 1: reasons I'm running is because I want people in Congress

1686
01:37:58,920 --> 01:38:02,280
Speaker 1: with a he said, relevant experience on some of the

1687
01:38:02,280 --> 01:38:04,839
Speaker 1: bigger issues are president is facing right now. That's Korea,

1688
01:38:05,640 --> 01:38:08,280
Speaker 1: that's the Iran, it's kind of terrorism, it's kind of

1689
01:38:08,280 --> 01:38:11,640
Speaker 1: prolifration issues. And uh, you know, the competition doesn't know

1690
01:38:11,680 --> 01:38:13,840
Speaker 1: anything about these. They just got talking points. And when

1691
01:38:13,880 --> 01:38:16,720
Speaker 1: it comes to national security, it comes to border security,

1692
01:38:17,280 --> 01:38:20,920
Speaker 1: comes to our defense, you can't rely on talking points,

1693
01:38:20,920 --> 01:38:22,880
Speaker 1: You can't rely on a think tank to tell you

1694
01:38:22,920 --> 01:38:27,000
Speaker 1: what to think. You need experience, and I think the

1695
01:38:27,040 --> 01:38:30,320
Speaker 1: people in our leadership in Washington needs folks who can

1696
01:38:30,360 --> 01:38:33,720
Speaker 1: hit the ground running. Um. It's important to me and

1697
01:38:33,800 --> 01:38:35,640
Speaker 1: it's important to the safety of our country. Talk to

1698
01:38:35,720 --> 01:38:38,960
Speaker 1: you a bit about Korea dance, specifically the North South issue.

1699
01:38:39,200 --> 01:38:41,439
Speaker 1: Kim Jong on What do you think about what the

1700
01:38:41,439 --> 01:38:44,599
Speaker 1: Trump administration has been doing thus far and what would

1701
01:38:44,600 --> 01:38:47,040
Speaker 1: you either like to see changed or more of with

1702
01:38:47,080 --> 01:38:51,439
Speaker 1: regard to North Korea if you were to be in Congress. Well,

1703
01:38:51,760 --> 01:38:54,240
Speaker 1: it's there's no easy answer to to solve in the

1704
01:38:54,280 --> 01:38:57,800
Speaker 1: North Spring crisis. UM. I think the President is trying

1705
01:38:57,840 --> 01:38:59,960
Speaker 1: a new track. I think there's method to the man

1706
01:39:00,040 --> 01:39:04,160
Speaker 1: is you. We need to create more leverage over the

1707
01:39:04,160 --> 01:39:06,840
Speaker 1: North Koreans and that's through China, and the President is

1708
01:39:06,840 --> 01:39:08,839
Speaker 1: doing that with a lot of a lot of rhetoric

1709
01:39:08,880 --> 01:39:11,160
Speaker 1: that maybe scares people. But if you don't have a

1710
01:39:11,240 --> 01:39:14,479
Speaker 1: credible threat on the table, that's a military action on

1711
01:39:14,520 --> 01:39:16,320
Speaker 1: the table. If it's not credible, if they don't think

1712
01:39:16,320 --> 01:39:19,559
Speaker 1: you'll do it. Uh. The Chinese willing act and we

1713
01:39:19,600 --> 01:39:22,040
Speaker 1: really need the Chinese to use their influence over the

1714
01:39:22,040 --> 01:39:24,599
Speaker 1: North Koreans to bring them back. And I think behind

1715
01:39:24,600 --> 01:39:27,080
Speaker 1: the scenes we might be seeing that. So I think

1716
01:39:27,120 --> 01:39:31,280
Speaker 1: there is some method to that to what seems like madness. Um.

1717
01:39:31,360 --> 01:39:33,640
Speaker 1: But we have to keep the pressure on. We have

1718
01:39:33,680 --> 01:39:35,720
Speaker 1: to look at what more sanctions we can do and

1719
01:39:35,760 --> 01:39:39,200
Speaker 1: isolate that regime and punish them for their bad behavior. Um.

1720
01:39:39,680 --> 01:39:44,479
Speaker 1: What what is new about this particular, Um, you know,

1721
01:39:44,560 --> 01:39:48,040
Speaker 1: new phase in North Korean relationships is the fact that

1722
01:39:48,080 --> 01:39:50,679
Speaker 1: they have an I CBM that can reach the United States.

1723
01:39:50,680 --> 01:39:53,559
Speaker 1: That when when this kind of saber rattling was occurring before,

1724
01:39:53,800 --> 01:39:56,120
Speaker 1: that wasn't the case. We didn't have to worry as much.

1725
01:39:56,160 --> 01:39:58,400
Speaker 1: But it is the case now and we do have

1726
01:39:58,479 --> 01:39:59,920
Speaker 1: to worry about the time when they can actually put

1727
01:39:59,920 --> 01:40:02,559
Speaker 1: a NUC their warhead on that I CBM that can

1728
01:40:02,600 --> 01:40:05,280
Speaker 1: reach the United States. That's the real ticking time bomb

1729
01:40:05,439 --> 01:40:07,599
Speaker 1: for to speak, that we do not want to see

1730
01:40:07,640 --> 01:40:12,360
Speaker 1: happen and we cannot let happen. Speaking to retired Lieutenant

1731
01:40:12,360 --> 01:40:15,280
Speaker 1: Commander Dan Crunshaw of the Navy Seals, he is running

1732
01:40:15,400 --> 01:40:20,800
Speaker 1: for Congress in the Texas Congressional District number two. Uh

1733
01:40:20,960 --> 01:40:24,000
Speaker 1: so tell me about being a Texan, Dan, I love Texas.

1734
01:40:24,000 --> 01:40:26,000
Speaker 1: I used to work for the Blaze out of Dallas

1735
01:40:26,040 --> 01:40:28,559
Speaker 1: and spent a lot of time down there. I love

1736
01:40:28,600 --> 01:40:34,480
Speaker 1: Texas too, you know. And UH, good answer, needless to say.

1737
01:40:34,680 --> 01:40:37,679
Speaker 1: And you know what's important to us and here in Texas,

1738
01:40:37,840 --> 01:40:41,240
Speaker 1: it's sport of security first, and it sported security second. Uh,

1739
01:40:41,240 --> 01:40:44,920
Speaker 1: it's economic freedom. Uh, it's patriotism, It's red, white and blue.

1740
01:40:45,040 --> 01:40:46,599
Speaker 1: That's what we're about, and that's the kind of value

1741
01:40:46,640 --> 01:40:49,720
Speaker 1: I want to bring to Congress. I feel like you

1742
01:40:49,800 --> 01:40:51,880
Speaker 1: can bring up the border security issue, by the way,

1743
01:40:51,920 --> 01:40:55,880
Speaker 1: and I've been chasing down some some connections between the

1744
01:40:55,960 --> 01:40:59,599
Speaker 1: surgeon and opioid deaths in this overdoses in this country,

1745
01:41:00,040 --> 01:41:03,480
Speaker 1: and also the rising power in Mexico of the cartels,

1746
01:41:03,479 --> 01:41:05,800
Speaker 1: which seems to me to be a story that's not

1747
01:41:05,840 --> 01:41:08,720
Speaker 1: getting nearly enough attention. A big part of that is

1748
01:41:08,760 --> 01:41:12,240
Speaker 1: that the border, even when there may be illegal alien

1749
01:41:12,320 --> 01:41:16,240
Speaker 1: crossings at at a downward tilts for a while, the

1750
01:41:16,280 --> 01:41:20,280
Speaker 1: border is still very much open to enterprising drug traffickers

1751
01:41:20,360 --> 01:41:23,720
Speaker 1: who have tremendous resources and a whole lot of economic

1752
01:41:23,760 --> 01:41:27,040
Speaker 1: reason to get across. Yeah, that's exactly right, And you

1753
01:41:27,080 --> 01:41:29,439
Speaker 1: really bring up a good point about how that might

1754
01:41:29,479 --> 01:41:32,000
Speaker 1: affect our opioid crisis that is really becoming a national

1755
01:41:32,040 --> 01:41:36,760
Speaker 1: security threat. We're losing people constantly to that all over

1756
01:41:36,800 --> 01:41:39,400
Speaker 1: the country. We were that that's something that I would,

1757
01:41:39,479 --> 01:41:41,120
Speaker 1: you know, I would support some kind of federal action

1758
01:41:41,120 --> 01:41:43,800
Speaker 1: and funding for m to combat that. And part of

1759
01:41:43,800 --> 01:41:46,719
Speaker 1: that is border security. Uh, you know, we probably probably

1760
01:41:46,720 --> 01:41:48,599
Speaker 1: do see a good deal of that drug trait coming

1761
01:41:48,640 --> 01:41:51,040
Speaker 1: from the southern border. It's also there's a lot of

1762
01:41:51,040 --> 01:41:53,840
Speaker 1: reasons there's an opioid crisis. It's it's over prescription. It's

1763
01:41:53,880 --> 01:41:57,160
Speaker 1: over prescribing these these drugs. It's it's bad pharmacies and

1764
01:41:57,280 --> 01:42:00,200
Speaker 1: corrupt pharmacies that are dealing them out. Um, can be down.

1765
01:42:00,400 --> 01:42:03,920
Speaker 1: That is huge. But you know, making sure our border

1766
01:42:04,160 --> 01:42:07,320
Speaker 1: is safe and secure is just so important to Texans.

1767
01:42:07,360 --> 01:42:10,959
Speaker 1: Were on the front lines. We we we would appreciate

1768
01:42:11,000 --> 01:42:13,240
Speaker 1: the rest of the country understood that. Um. We know

1769
01:42:13,240 --> 01:42:15,240
Speaker 1: when you when you hear rhetoric from the Democrats coming

1770
01:42:15,240 --> 01:42:18,400
Speaker 1: out of Joe Kennedy from Massachusetts, you know, I get

1771
01:42:18,400 --> 01:42:21,639
Speaker 1: it different up in Massachusetts. I know. I lived there,

1772
01:42:21,640 --> 01:42:23,240
Speaker 1: I went to I did, I went to Harvard. I

1773
01:42:23,280 --> 01:42:27,280
Speaker 1: get it. But we're in Texas. Were on the front lines. Um,

1774
01:42:27,400 --> 01:42:30,960
Speaker 1: we need we need to secure the border. We see,

1775
01:42:31,040 --> 01:42:34,040
Speaker 1: we see how porce it is, we see those kind

1776
01:42:34,080 --> 01:42:35,840
Speaker 1: of those raute lines that you're talking about from the

1777
01:42:35,920 --> 01:42:38,200
Speaker 1: drug trade. It's only a matter of time too. And

1778
01:42:38,240 --> 01:42:39,639
Speaker 1: one thing we need to be thinking about. There's really

1779
01:42:39,680 --> 01:42:43,080
Speaker 1: ungoverned territories on the other side. But what happens when

1780
01:42:43,560 --> 01:42:47,000
Speaker 1: when other entities like Okay to our ices want to

1781
01:42:47,120 --> 01:42:50,439
Speaker 1: use those same lines of entry. Uh. And and those

1782
01:42:50,479 --> 01:42:53,640
Speaker 1: interests of line between the drug cartels and you know

1783
01:42:53,760 --> 01:42:57,760
Speaker 1: chihata groups. What happens then yet, but we need to

1784
01:42:57,760 --> 01:43:00,439
Speaker 1: be worried about it. One more for you, and and

1785
01:43:00,720 --> 01:43:02,599
Speaker 1: that is and look, I'm putting you on the hot

1786
01:43:02,600 --> 01:43:04,639
Speaker 1: seat a little bit here, but you're running for office,

1787
01:43:04,680 --> 01:43:06,639
Speaker 1: So this shouldn't this shouldn't be a surprise or comes

1788
01:43:06,680 --> 01:43:13,040
Speaker 1: anything new to you? Your favorite all time military memoir? Jeeze?

1789
01:43:13,120 --> 01:43:16,760
Speaker 1: How about how about I give you a really cheesy one. Uh?

1790
01:43:16,840 --> 01:43:19,040
Speaker 1: You know, how about the book that got me started

1791
01:43:19,240 --> 01:43:21,920
Speaker 1: on this path? And it's a little cheesy, but it's

1792
01:43:21,960 --> 01:43:26,120
Speaker 1: written by Dick Marcinko. It's called Rogue Warrior. And you

1793
01:43:26,240 --> 01:43:29,360
Speaker 1: know it's if I hadn't read that book, I wouldn't

1794
01:43:29,360 --> 01:43:33,519
Speaker 1: be here. Now, that's a great book. Twelve I was

1795
01:43:33,600 --> 01:43:38,320
Speaker 1: twelve years old, Uh, and you know that that's that's

1796
01:43:38,360 --> 01:43:40,360
Speaker 1: what set beyond this path. And I you know, I've

1797

01:44:23,680 --> 01:44:26,760
Speaker 1: not getting things confused and in the head quite the

1814
01:44:26,800 --> 01:44:28,439
Speaker 1: same way as I did yesterday. We gotta some roll

1815
01:44:28,520 --> 01:44:31,000
Speaker 1: call and hear from all of you. All right, everybody

1816
01:44:31,080 --> 01:44:33,080
Speaker 1: gets the end of the show. So this is where

1817
01:44:33,320 --> 01:44:35,880
Speaker 1: you guys get to tell me what we're talking about

1818
01:44:35,920 --> 01:44:41,559
Speaker 1: with roll call. Team Buck. It's time for roll call.

1819
01:44:43,080 --> 01:44:46,519
Speaker 1: It is indeed. All right, let's see what we got

1820
01:44:46,640 --> 01:44:49,000
Speaker 1: up first. This is always a little risky, by the way.

1821
01:44:49,000 --> 01:44:51,080
Speaker 1: Sometimes I start reading stuff and I'm like, oh, I

1822
01:44:51,280 --> 01:44:56,439
Speaker 1: can't read that on the radio. So hopefully, hopefully we

1823
01:44:56,479 --> 01:44:58,759
Speaker 1: won't have any of that today, although that can happen

1824
01:44:58,840 --> 01:45:01,280
Speaker 1: for sure. Hey, you know, I gotta keep it spicy.

1825
01:45:01,360 --> 01:45:03,080
Speaker 1: You gotta keep you on your toes out there and

1826
01:45:03,200 --> 01:45:07,200
Speaker 1: radio listening land. Speaking of spicy, Miss Molly said that

1827
01:45:07,280 --> 01:45:08,960
Speaker 1: she thinks that we should have a cook off because

1828
01:45:08,960 --> 01:45:11,000
Speaker 1: I'm getting a little big from my breeches with my

1829
01:45:11,320 --> 01:45:15,439
Speaker 1: culinary skills, talking a big game about my ribbi searing

1830
01:45:16,000 --> 01:45:19,519
Speaker 1: and various other escapades in the kitchen. And I'm like, honey,

1831
01:45:19,880 --> 01:45:22,160
Speaker 1: we're on the same team. We don't do opposing teams.

1832
01:45:22,200 --> 01:45:23,880
Speaker 1: I'll let you know. I'll be the sioux chef. You

1833
01:45:23,960 --> 01:45:25,680
Speaker 1: get to run the kitchen. That's the way we'll do this.

1834
01:45:25,840 --> 01:45:28,640
Speaker 1: But she's she's got quite it when she puts her

1835
01:45:28,680 --> 01:45:30,280
Speaker 1: mind to it. She's actually quite a good hand in

1836
01:45:30,320 --> 01:45:33,280
Speaker 1: the kitchen. Um, I'm not gonna say that. I don't

1837
01:45:33,400 --> 01:45:38,080
Speaker 1: you know. One day I will do my version of eggs.

1838
01:45:38,280 --> 01:45:40,960
Speaker 1: I'll a buck and I will show you all, maybe

1839
01:45:41,000 --> 01:45:43,120
Speaker 1: on a Facebook live video, just how to make the

1840
01:45:43,120 --> 01:45:44,840
Speaker 1: best scrambled eggs there are. I mean, there are a

1841
01:45:44,920 --> 01:45:48,720
Speaker 1: few key tips I really should show you because the

1842
01:45:48,760 --> 01:45:50,320
Speaker 1: problem I have now there is anywhere I go and

1843
01:45:50,360 --> 01:45:52,800
Speaker 1: I order scrambled eggs. I'm like, hey, these are okay

1844
01:45:53,400 --> 01:45:57,880
Speaker 1: technically speaking, technically these are scrambled eggs, but they're also

1845
01:45:58,240 --> 01:46:01,840
Speaker 1: not as good as my scrambled eggs. I'm just saying, so, uh,

1846
01:46:02,080 --> 01:46:05,400
Speaker 1: let's get into some team Buck speaks. Here we get see,

1847
01:46:05,439 --> 01:46:08,439
Speaker 1: I just did it some roll call. Those novels that

1848
01:46:08,520 --> 01:46:10,760
Speaker 1: you were thinking about, this is from Alan, that were

1849
01:46:10,840 --> 01:46:14,760
Speaker 1: sold at grocery stores were called dime store novels back

1850
01:46:14,800 --> 01:46:16,720
Speaker 1: in the day. That's where you would find it was

1851
01:46:16,840 --> 01:46:19,120
Speaker 1: Nickel and dimes stores, and they were considered to be

1852
01:46:19,280 --> 01:46:22,759
Speaker 1: trash books for women. Yes, yes, Alan, that is correct,

1853
01:46:22,800 --> 01:46:25,840
Speaker 1: dime store novels. That is what I'm talking about. You know,

1854
01:46:25,960 --> 01:46:29,080
Speaker 1: the historical piece that it's always you know, her husband,

1855
01:46:29,280 --> 01:46:31,920
Speaker 1: you know, her husband left for the war, and then

1856
01:46:32,000 --> 01:46:36,600
Speaker 1: like the handsome guy comes through town, and then the

1857
01:46:36,680 --> 01:46:39,320
Speaker 1: husband returns from war, and then you know, the passion

1858
01:46:39,400 --> 01:46:42,640
Speaker 1: and the drama all that stuff. Um not that I

1859
01:46:42,720 --> 01:46:45,680
Speaker 1: didn't read them, I'm just I saw the covers of them. Sometimes.

1860
01:46:46,640 --> 01:46:49,920
Speaker 1: All right, here we go, uh, Ilsa writes in Buck.

1861
01:46:49,960 --> 01:46:51,599
Speaker 1: I never know if it does any good to send

1862
01:46:51,640 --> 01:46:54,280
Speaker 1: you messages here. Well, Elsa, you're getting your message read

1863
01:46:54,360 --> 01:46:57,960
Speaker 1: on the nationally broadcast radio show. But I don't know

1864
01:46:58,040 --> 01:47:00,240
Speaker 1: how else to get your attention. I don't remember remember

1865
01:47:00,240 --> 01:47:02,960
Speaker 1: how I reached you when I was actually getting you too.

1866
01:47:03,080 --> 01:47:07,200
Speaker 1: Right back about my husband's escape from communist Yugoslavia. But

1867
01:47:07,360 --> 01:47:11,559
Speaker 1: my concern today is with the Judicial Watch report. Another

1868
01:47:11,680 --> 01:47:14,839
Speaker 1: friend shared with me that was about the GOP flying

1869
01:47:15,040 --> 01:47:18,839
Speaker 1: DOCTA recipients to different areas on commercial flights of the country.

1870
01:47:19,320 --> 01:47:21,559
Speaker 1: What do you know about this? Several people are now

1871
01:47:21,720 --> 01:47:23,920
Speaker 1: saying that they will not vote for Republicans again with

1872
01:47:24,000 --> 01:47:26,400
Speaker 1: this report. It's true, ILSA, I will tell you I

1873
01:47:26,479 --> 01:47:29,160
Speaker 1: don't know much about it. Let me look into it,

1874
01:47:29,800 --> 01:47:32,040
Speaker 1: and if it's true, and if it's happening, I will

1875
01:47:32,160 --> 01:47:36,120
Speaker 1: come back to you with a with some analysis on it.

1876
01:47:36,200 --> 01:47:38,400
Speaker 1: But for right now, I just I don't know what

1877
01:47:38,720 --> 01:47:43,400
Speaker 1: the specifics are of the incident or the situation that

1878
01:47:43,479 --> 01:47:47,360
Speaker 1: you are citing, So I will take a a rain

1879
01:47:47,479 --> 01:47:51,599
Speaker 1: check on the question. If that's okay for now? Uh see,

1880
01:47:52,160 --> 01:47:55,320
Speaker 1: Oh here we go. Michael writes in man, your trade

1881
01:47:55,360 --> 01:48:00,120
Speaker 1: gaudy was the worst. You've done some real stinkers, but

1882
01:48:00,200 --> 01:48:03,719
Speaker 1: that one takes the cake. Hillary is still the best.

1883
01:48:03,840 --> 01:48:06,000
Speaker 1: What happened is still the best. Okay, Michael, thank you.

1884
01:48:06,120 --> 01:48:09,000
Speaker 1: I agree that Hillary is still the best, but you

1885
01:48:09,080 --> 01:48:11,920
Speaker 1: really the trade gutties your excuse me? Sure, or you're

1886
01:48:11,920 --> 01:48:15,439
Speaker 1: gonna answer to the question or not. No, you're in

1887
01:48:15,560 --> 01:48:18,639
Speaker 1: my courtroom. Sure. Really, it doesn't sound at all I trade.

1888
01:48:18,960 --> 01:48:22,240
Speaker 1: Come on, come on, I think it's a little bit.

1889
01:48:22,280 --> 01:48:24,080
Speaker 1: I don't think it's the worst. I think I've definitely

1890
01:48:24,120 --> 01:48:27,040
Speaker 1: done worst. I've done worse ones. I had to stop

1891
01:48:27,120 --> 01:48:29,840
Speaker 1: doing al Gore because my al Gore needed to be

1892
01:48:30,040 --> 01:48:32,960
Speaker 1: better than it was and it didn't sound enough like

1893
01:48:33,000 --> 01:48:34,519
Speaker 1: al Core. So I gotta work on my al Gore,

1894
01:48:35,320 --> 01:48:38,320
Speaker 1: Jessica writes in Hey Buck. And also, though al Gore

1895
01:48:38,439 --> 01:48:40,280
Speaker 1: is not really famous these days or he's not talked

1896
01:48:40,320 --> 01:48:42,040
Speaker 1: about the media, so maybe I don't have to work

1897
01:48:42,080 --> 01:48:44,680
Speaker 1: on my al Gore. You're all like, yeah, that's a

1898
01:48:44,720 --> 01:48:47,720
Speaker 1: way better plan, Jessica. With the next one, Hey Buck,

1899
01:48:48,040 --> 01:48:50,920
Speaker 1: I've been listening to Shields High podcast. But to be honest,

1900
01:48:50,960 --> 01:48:53,839
Speaker 1: I'm a person that learns better by reading literature myself.

1901
01:48:54,560 --> 01:48:56,360
Speaker 1: Is this all from a book that I can get

1902
01:48:56,439 --> 01:49:01,280
Speaker 1: my hands on? Uh? Well, Jessica, not really. It's my

1903
01:49:02,360 --> 01:49:06,439
Speaker 1: stream of consciousness about the different historical periods and and

1904
01:49:06,560 --> 01:49:09,280
Speaker 1: incidents that I'm talking to you about. I can give

1905
01:49:09,360 --> 01:49:13,000
Speaker 1: you some books to read that touch on the subject matter,

1906
01:49:13,040 --> 01:49:15,240
Speaker 1: and I could put that maybe up on Facebook as

1907
01:49:15,280 --> 01:49:17,280
Speaker 1: a response to you and everyone else can see it

1908
01:49:17,360 --> 01:49:22,320
Speaker 1: as well. I am very uh well, I'm I'm very

1909
01:49:22,360 --> 01:49:25,519
Speaker 1: fond of some of the works of Roger Crowley. He

1910
01:49:25,640 --> 01:49:29,479
Speaker 1: wrote a book on called Empire of the Seas, which

1911
01:49:29,560 --> 01:49:32,400
Speaker 1: was very good about the Ottoman advance across the Mediterranean.

1912
01:49:32,760 --> 01:49:35,280
Speaker 1: He also wrote a book called fourteen fifty three specifically

1913
01:49:35,280 --> 01:49:38,280
Speaker 1: about the fall of Constantinople. That's very good. A lot

1914
01:49:38,360 --> 01:49:45,800
Speaker 1: of my Crusades reading is actually a compilation of contemporary chroniclers,

1915
01:49:45,960 --> 01:49:50,120
Speaker 1: so that's more like a compendium of sources, you know, Folkler,

1916
01:49:50,280 --> 01:49:54,080
Speaker 1: of of Shart and uh other different other, other different,

1917
01:49:54,360 --> 01:49:57,519
Speaker 1: other people that were writing about it from the time period.

1918
01:49:58,520 --> 01:50:00,560
Speaker 1: So I don't have a book for you, but I

1919
01:50:00,640 --> 01:50:03,760
Speaker 1: can tell you that there are books that go into it.

1920
01:50:04,080 --> 01:50:07,720
Speaker 1: And the first two shows were scripted, and then in

1921
01:50:07,800 --> 01:50:10,400
Speaker 1: response to comments from all of you after that, I said,

1922
01:50:10,400 --> 01:50:11,800
Speaker 1: all right, I'm not gonna be a script anymore. I'm

1923
01:50:11,840 --> 01:50:13,800
Speaker 1: just gonna kind of go and talk about it. And

1924
01:50:13,920 --> 01:50:16,080
Speaker 1: that seems to be working pretty well. Some of you

1925
01:50:16,160 --> 01:50:19,160
Speaker 1: seem to think that's a more stylistically, that's a better choice.

1926
01:50:19,200 --> 01:50:23,400
Speaker 1: So that's where we've been doing the Shields High. Let's

1927
01:50:23,400 --> 01:50:29,080
Speaker 1: see we get next. Um william writes the milk carton,

1928
01:50:29,120 --> 01:50:31,519
Speaker 1: the milk in cartons and all the cocoa packages I

1929
01:50:31,560 --> 01:50:34,120
Speaker 1: could get from m R. E. S. I mixed those

1930
01:50:34,200 --> 01:50:38,240
Speaker 1: with the coffee packs three years in Iraq. I love

1931
01:50:38,280 --> 01:50:40,400
Speaker 1: your Shields High episodes, but I understand the research and

1932
01:50:40,479 --> 01:50:42,800
Speaker 1: hard work. Maybe you should quit the podcast and make

1933
01:50:42,880 --> 01:50:46,960
Speaker 1: some nat GEO type TV episodes. Dream big, Buck, William William,

1934
01:50:47,000 --> 01:50:48,640
Speaker 1: I would love to do that. Maybe somebody should just

1935
01:50:48,720 --> 01:50:52,000
Speaker 1: come along and, you know, fund my my project. I

1936
01:50:52,080 --> 01:50:56,479
Speaker 1: mean the I think that a a TV series on

1937
01:50:56,880 --> 01:50:59,439
Speaker 1: La Panto would be really awesome, and I've said that before.

1938
01:51:00,439 --> 01:51:02,680
Speaker 1: Malta would be really cool too, because it it does

1939
01:51:02,920 --> 01:51:04,720
Speaker 1: it actually be a good movie. I think it would

1940
01:51:04,720 --> 01:51:09,720
Speaker 1: be a good movie in the epic cinematic genre. But

1941
01:51:10,439 --> 01:51:14,120
Speaker 1: it probably costs a lot of money, so uh, Damnian.

1942
01:51:14,520 --> 01:51:19,439
Speaker 1: Next up on roll call, Buck, have you ever thought

1943
01:51:19,520 --> 01:51:22,479
Speaker 1: about live streaming the show on a platform like YouTube

1944
01:51:22,560 --> 01:51:25,200
Speaker 1: or Facebook Live? As always, thanks to your service to

1945
01:51:25,280 --> 01:51:28,280
Speaker 1: our country and Shields High, Damian, Yes, We've thought about it,

1946
01:51:28,400 --> 01:51:32,240
Speaker 1: and yes, we are going to put something together where

1947
01:51:32,280 --> 01:51:34,320
Speaker 1: we're gonna be live streaming at some point in the

1948
01:51:34,400 --> 01:51:37,840
Speaker 1: future a portion of the radio show, if not all

1949
01:51:38,000 --> 01:51:42,000
Speaker 1: of the radio show. So the answer your question is, yes,

1950
01:51:42,600 --> 01:51:44,920
Speaker 1: we don't have it up yet. Facebook Live would be

1951
01:51:44,920 --> 01:51:46,800
Speaker 1: a lot of fun. I kind of like the idea though,

1952
01:51:46,920 --> 01:51:48,880
Speaker 1: of having something that's up on buck sex and dot

1953
01:51:48,920 --> 01:51:51,960
Speaker 1: com that's specific to the team, And I'd like to

1954
01:51:52,040 --> 01:51:54,960
Speaker 1: get away from relying on some of these third party

1955
01:51:55,120 --> 01:51:59,920
Speaker 1: social media platforms because I'm I'm losing faith in truck

1956
01:52:00,040 --> 01:52:02,439
Speaker 1: Us that they're well, I'm losing faith that they can

1957
01:52:02,520 --> 01:52:08,280
Speaker 1: be trusted. How about that? Uh next up here? Um, Tyler?

1958
01:52:08,800 --> 01:52:10,760
Speaker 1: Oh no, Tyler, we did that one yesterday. See I

1959
01:52:10,840 --> 01:52:14,639
Speaker 1: I I remember uh Doug Wright said, hey Buck while

1960
01:52:14,680 --> 01:52:17,280
Speaker 1: watching an old favorite. This scene stood out as a

1961
01:52:17,320 --> 01:52:20,640
Speaker 1: sum total of what we see from the Democrats resistance

1962
01:52:20,840 --> 01:52:25,200
Speaker 1: mindset for the past year. Oh it's Monty Python, She's

1963
01:52:25,200 --> 01:52:27,600
Speaker 1: a witch. I know that sketch. That's I kind of

1964
01:52:27,680 --> 01:52:31,000
Speaker 1: remember that one. I think. Uh, let's see who's next

1965
01:52:31,120 --> 01:52:33,720
Speaker 1: up on the list. Michelle says Trey Gaudy said from

1966
01:52:33,760 --> 01:52:35,639
Speaker 1: the start that he only spent x number of years

1967
01:52:36,400 --> 01:52:38,400
Speaker 1: in office. I don't believe there's any more to it

1968
01:52:38,479 --> 01:52:42,640
Speaker 1: than that. Uh, shields high. Well, Michelle, you may very

1969
01:52:42,680 --> 01:52:44,960
Speaker 1: well be right. Uh, I don't you know. I don't know.

1970
01:52:45,400 --> 01:52:48,400
Speaker 1: And while I do, it apparently not a particularly accurate

1971
01:52:48,880 --> 01:52:52,120
Speaker 1: impression of Trey Goudy. It is with It is a

1972
01:52:52,520 --> 01:52:54,880
Speaker 1: an impression done with fondness. I think that he's or

1973
01:52:54,960 --> 01:52:57,960
Speaker 1: not fondness. I don't know him, but you know, respectfully,

1974
01:52:58,000 --> 01:53:00,800
Speaker 1: i'm laughing with Trey. I'm not laughing at Trey, but

1975
01:53:01,000 --> 01:53:03,960
Speaker 1: I do think he'd be a very interesting pick for

1976
01:53:04,120 --> 01:53:07,519
Speaker 1: an administration. He certainly has the background, he's got the chops,

1977
01:53:07,680 --> 01:53:12,680
Speaker 1: as they say, to take a senior administration post. By

1978
01:53:12,720 --> 01:53:15,240
Speaker 1: the way, don't let me forget producer Mike that we

1979
01:53:15,360 --> 01:53:18,320
Speaker 1: need to get some of the emails going from official

1980
01:53:18,400 --> 01:53:20,640
Speaker 1: team buck at gmail dot com. I don't want to

1981
01:53:20,720 --> 01:53:23,760
Speaker 1: just be on the Facebook here, speaking of letting these

1982
01:53:24,160 --> 01:53:29,000
Speaker 1: platforms dominate everything that we're doing, which is increasingly the

1983
01:53:29,120 --> 01:53:31,599
Speaker 1: case all the time. Now. He got all this Facebook stuff,

1984
01:53:31,640 --> 01:53:34,280
Speaker 1: and I keep looking into I keep seeing these articles

1985
01:53:34,320 --> 01:53:37,400
Speaker 1: where they're saying, you know, there, it's like rewiring our brains,

1986
01:53:37,479 --> 01:53:39,800
Speaker 1: and yeah, it needs to we need to take of

1987
01:53:39,880 --> 01:53:42,680
Speaker 1: social media like TV. You wouldn't watch TV and three

1988
01:53:42,760 --> 01:53:45,400
Speaker 1: minute increments all day long. And that's the way you

1989
01:53:45,439 --> 01:53:47,160
Speaker 1: should a little bit of social media and then put

1990
01:53:47,240 --> 01:53:48,760
Speaker 1: it down, right, a little bit of social media and

1991
01:53:48,800 --> 01:53:53,439
Speaker 1: then put it down. Not a constant. Uh, it's like

1992
01:53:53,479 --> 01:53:57,800
Speaker 1: a slow rolling binge of just social media all the time, Ken,

1993
01:53:57,960 --> 01:53:59,960
Speaker 1: next one here, Buck. The whole issue is not about

1994
01:54:00,040 --> 01:54:03,439
Speaker 1: Trump being president. It's about Hillary not being president. Any

1995
01:54:03,520 --> 01:54:06,240
Speaker 1: other Republican candidate would have seen in the same position,

1996
01:54:06,320 --> 01:54:08,080
Speaker 1: and the fires of warrant would have been against their

1997
01:54:08,160 --> 01:54:12,439
Speaker 1: campaign manager. Your thoughts, Oh, you know, Ken, I don't

1998
01:54:12,479 --> 01:54:15,200
Speaker 1: think so, because I mean, look, I can't prove that

1999
01:54:15,280 --> 01:54:17,439
Speaker 1: you're wrong, because we don't know. We can't prove a

2000
01:54:17,479 --> 01:54:20,679
Speaker 1: negative here, can't go back and change history. But because

2001
01:54:20,720 --> 01:54:23,000
Speaker 1: of some of the associates that Trump had around him,

2002
01:54:23,560 --> 01:54:25,240
Speaker 1: I think that there's a case to be made that

2003
01:54:25,439 --> 01:54:29,000
Speaker 1: there was greater susceptibility because of manaforts and the like

2004
01:54:29,280 --> 01:54:35,160
Speaker 1: to the kinds of discretionary abuses at FBI and d

2005
01:54:35,240 --> 01:54:37,800
Speaker 1: o J. And I just realized we're closing up the

2006
01:54:37,880 --> 01:54:41,320
Speaker 1: shop here at the Freedom Hut for today. Freestyle Friday

2007
01:54:41,440 --> 01:54:43,200
Speaker 1: is tomorrow. Shields High
