Obviously, gonna take a 0:01:24.959 --> 0:01:27.959 trip down Memo Lane. You gotta get into the latest 0:01:27.959 --> 0:01:33.840 on release the memo. Man I got. I got mixed emotions, 0:01:33.880 --> 0:01:37.160 mixed feelings about what this is all gonna turn into. 0:01:37.240 --> 0:01:39.840 I'm seeing all this reporting, including right on Fox News, 0:01:39.920 --> 0:01:42.759 that it's about to happen, not like while I'm on air, 0:01:42.760 --> 0:01:46.400 although wouldn't that be interesting. Probably tomorrow, people are saying 0:01:46.520 --> 0:01:52.960 maybe Monday. As I have told people earlier today when 0:01:53.000 --> 0:01:55.160 I was on out Numbered on Fox News, which the 0:01:55.160 --> 0:01:57.560 show I love doing. It's great show. It's really fun, 0:01:58.080 --> 0:02:03.520 it's really uh good conversation, upbeat, really like it. Um, 0:02:03.520 --> 0:02:05.000 but that was earlier to then, and I just said, look, 0:02:05.040 --> 0:02:07.960 there's there's not a there's not another option here other 0:02:08.000 --> 0:02:10.880 than release the memo. There's no other Hey, what do 0:02:10.880 --> 0:02:12.760 you to this point? I mean, this is this is 0:02:12.800 --> 0:02:15.400 like you're gonna turn this memo into the into the roswell, 0:02:15.880 --> 0:02:18.480 you know, landings and aliens and stuff. You can't do that. 0:02:18.840 --> 0:02:20.800 Oh yeah, We've been talking about this for weeks. It's 0:02:20.840 --> 0:02:23.960 been a NonStop news cycle on the memo. But you 0:02:24.000 --> 0:02:29.000 know what, Sorry America, think about what that message. I mean, 0:02:29.000 --> 0:02:31.120 it's actually gone to the point where it's almost comical. 0:02:31.160 --> 0:02:33.799 I know, it's about really serious stuff. Think about what 0:02:33.840 --> 0:02:36.640 the message would be that this is sending neither the 0:02:36.680 --> 0:02:44.600 President nor the Congress really has the ability the right 0:02:45.840 --> 0:02:49.680 to tell the American people about what a subservient branch 0:02:50.000 --> 0:02:53.560 I'm sorry, subservient part of not branch part of the 0:02:53.639 --> 0:02:57.600 government has been up to. Yeah, that's a good precedent 0:02:57.639 --> 0:03:00.480 to set to set. Let me tell you one of 0:03:00.520 --> 0:03:05.600 the things that most separates us from all these scary 0:03:05.639 --> 0:03:08.240 countries around the world. And people will talk about fascism 0:03:08.280 --> 0:03:11.519 and a police state somebody who knows something about how 0:03:11.600 --> 0:03:15.280 intelligence works in this country, but also in other countries too. 0:03:15.400 --> 0:03:18.280 One of the things about different intelligence agencies is they 0:03:18.320 --> 0:03:21.520 spend a lot of time learning about what intelligence is 0:03:21.600 --> 0:03:26.200 like in other countries. Right, And here's a sign of 0:03:26.240 --> 0:03:28.799 a country that you've got to be concerned about. When 0:03:28.800 --> 0:03:32.040 you're i think, when you're talking about liberty and rule 0:03:32.080 --> 0:03:34.920 of law and civil rights and all that all that 0:03:34.960 --> 0:03:41.480 good stuff. When the intelligence agencies or agency, if it's 0:03:41.520 --> 0:03:45.840 kind of one super agency, when they are accountable to 0:03:45.960 --> 0:03:51.240 no one except the leader, and in fact, in many 0:03:51.240 --> 0:03:53.400 ways are more powerful than the leader, then you've got 0:03:53.400 --> 0:03:57.200 a really bad situation going on. And what you will 0:03:57.240 --> 0:03:59.920 also see historically is that there are plenty of times 0:04:00.080 --> 0:04:06.360 when whoever was running the intelligence agency of any given country, 0:04:06.480 --> 0:04:08.320 And this is definitely in the in the twentieth century, 0:04:08.360 --> 0:04:10.720 and that's when we really have had the whole notion 0:04:10.720 --> 0:04:14.280 of a modern intelligence organization. Right before that, it was 0:04:14.960 --> 0:04:17.520 very different. And before you had mass communication and you know, 0:04:18.000 --> 0:04:20.880 it was tough to be doing stuff at a certain 0:04:20.920 --> 0:04:24.840 speed and uh before you had phones, right before you 0:04:24.880 --> 0:04:28.920 had radio. Um. But you had people that would be 0:04:29.200 --> 0:04:33.200 senior in the intelligence agency who would end up running 0:04:33.200 --> 0:04:37.960 the country, right people that were the higher ups of 0:04:38.040 --> 0:04:41.000 whatever the internal security service was, and they end up 0:04:41.080 --> 0:04:43.360 running the country. That's because they can amass so much 0:04:43.400 --> 0:04:46.520 power because if they don't have any restrictions on the 0:04:46.560 --> 0:04:48.839 information they can get on people. Think of what that 0:04:48.880 --> 0:04:52.880 means for their sway in politics, even if they don't 0:04:52.920 --> 0:04:55.960 have elections, although you know a lot of countries have 0:04:56.040 --> 0:04:58.760 elections that are for show. And you look at some 0:04:58.800 --> 0:05:03.680 of the different stands for example, and you got, yeah, 0:05:03.720 --> 0:05:08.960 their elections, the one candidate wins percent of the vote 0:05:08.960 --> 0:05:11.440 and has for the last thirty years. But there are elections. 0:05:12.040 --> 0:05:13.880 I always love that too. What's why not just go? 0:05:14.960 --> 0:05:18.520 You know, why stop at ninety eight or I just 0:05:18.560 --> 0:05:21.080 want to maybe so they put some people on notice. 0:05:21.120 --> 0:05:23.800 It's like, hey, maybe we could say later on that 0:05:23.800 --> 0:05:26.040 you were part of that naughty two percent that didn't 0:05:26.080 --> 0:05:28.360 vote for the same guys running the country for twenty 0:05:28.480 --> 0:05:31.520 or thirty years. The bottom line here, folks, is you 0:05:31.640 --> 0:05:36.800 can't have an intelligence and law enforcement apparatus that is 0:05:37.360 --> 0:05:41.520 above the law and above people, above the people, we 0:05:41.680 --> 0:05:44.640 the people. You just can't do it. And this whole 0:05:45.120 --> 0:05:49.400 conversation has, I think, on so much more damage, so 0:05:49.480 --> 0:05:52.080 much more damage to our trust and faith and institutions 0:05:52.480 --> 0:05:55.680 then was necessary. Does anyone really think that the FBI 0:05:55.760 --> 0:05:58.960 doesn't have people who make mistakes? I also noticed that 0:05:59.000 --> 0:06:01.200 we're so focused in the f I. FBI is a 0:06:01.200 --> 0:06:03.599 subsidiary of the Department of Justice. This is all really 0:06:03.680 --> 0:06:07.039 d o J. And the d o J was run 0:06:07.040 --> 0:06:11.800 by recently Loretta Lynch and before that Eric Holder. Anybody 0:06:11.839 --> 0:06:15.760 really think that they were running a shop that wasn't political. 0:06:16.120 --> 0:06:18.480 Come on, right, we all know, we're all we're all 0:06:18.480 --> 0:06:20.960 big boys and girls here. We all know this. This 0:06:21.040 --> 0:06:27.080 is not surprising. And I've been trying to avoid what 0:06:27.279 --> 0:06:29.719 the Democrats want us to do here, which is to 0:06:29.839 --> 0:06:32.560 make this all about the institutions. Oh, they've been complaining 0:06:32.600 --> 0:06:35.880 the institutions from the very beginning, and I always want 0:06:35.880 --> 0:06:38.159 to respond to them. In this instance, what could be 0:06:39.040 --> 0:06:43.480 a bigger abuse? I mean, if we're not worried about 0:06:43.960 --> 0:06:49.440 the FBI, the d o J involving itself in a 0:06:49.600 --> 0:06:52.479 partisan fashion, or really in any fashion, and a presidential 0:06:52.520 --> 0:06:54.279 election hoping to turn it one way or the other 0:06:54.320 --> 0:06:58.960 by using spying powers, If that doesn't worry us, what's 0:06:59.000 --> 0:07:01.840 the point of having an over site committee. I mean, 0:07:02.160 --> 0:07:05.000 if Congress isn't going to use and and look I 0:07:05.080 --> 0:07:08.080 think they have and they will and probably tomorrow we're 0:07:08.080 --> 0:07:11.760 gonna find out what's in this memo and everything else. 0:07:11.800 --> 0:07:13.920 But if they're not going to use their oversight powers 0:07:13.960 --> 0:07:16.840 for this, then what do they have oversight powers? Now, 0:07:16.880 --> 0:07:18.960 let's let's all just keep it real here, let's not 0:07:19.000 --> 0:07:23.480 get caught up in the nonsense. There is just, frankly, 0:07:24.000 --> 0:07:27.720 no way that this memo was going to be suppressed, 0:07:27.720 --> 0:07:29.400 That that was gonna be okay, that was never gonna 0:07:29.440 --> 0:07:35.440 be okay. I've been trying to tell you all along here. Uh. 0:07:35.440 --> 0:07:37.200 And I actually went to Twitter today just so I 0:07:37.280 --> 0:07:41.320 kind of had a written version of my prediction for 0:07:41.320 --> 0:07:43.560 what's gonna happen. You know what, We're gonna talk about 0:07:43.600 --> 0:07:45.160 some other stuff on the show too, because I'm sure 0:07:45.160 --> 0:07:47.440 you start to get memo fatigue. I got memo fatigue, 0:07:48.840 --> 0:07:50.520 and one of the things that keeps me going with 0:07:50.560 --> 0:07:52.560 it it is just every time I want to move 0:07:52.600 --> 0:07:54.080 off the memo and talk to you. But you know, 0:07:54.160 --> 0:07:56.240 like we talked Cartel's North Korea, we cover a lot 0:07:56.280 --> 0:07:59.960 of ground near the economy clearly right. My latest s 0:08:00.040 --> 0:08:02.360 campades in the kitchen with cooking. I'll tell you about 0:08:02.400 --> 0:08:05.240 that too later on a lot of things. Netflix shows 0:08:05.280 --> 0:08:08.960 action movie quotes. You know you listen. But every time 0:08:08.960 --> 0:08:12.239 I see a false narrative from the left about this memo, 0:08:12.320 --> 0:08:14.320 I'm like, no, no, no, no, no, I'm not I 0:08:14.320 --> 0:08:17.160 can't let them get away with it. I almost have 0:08:17.200 --> 0:08:24.120 a compulsion two shoot down their lies because it bothers me. 0:08:24.200 --> 0:08:28.440 It really does bother me. And they've tried so many 0:08:28.480 --> 0:08:34.720 different dishonest and in some cases quite slimy tricks to 0:08:35.040 --> 0:08:37.080 either make the memo go away. You're making it's not 0:08:37.120 --> 0:08:41.120 a big deal. I've written out what I think is 0:08:41.120 --> 0:08:44.960 going to happen. So here's my my memo prediction for tomorrow, 0:08:45.080 --> 0:08:47.120 and we'll see how accurate I am based on this. 0:08:48.000 --> 0:08:52.440 Number One, Fusion GPS dossier usage confirmed for FISA warrant. 0:08:52.800 --> 0:08:54.800 I think we will see the Fusion GPS played a 0:08:54.880 --> 0:08:57.800 role here. Now we already think that that it will 0:08:57.800 --> 0:09:01.680 be confirmed, which is different. That is different, Okay. Number 0:09:01.679 --> 0:09:07.000 two other unspecified things still kept classified, also part of 0:09:07.040 --> 0:09:10.040 the warrant. Now I can't tell you what that is. 0:09:10.160 --> 0:09:11.920 I don't have access anymore, which is a good thing 0:09:11.920 --> 0:09:13.360 because if I did, I couldn't talk to you about 0:09:13.360 --> 0:09:16.719 any of this anymore. But that's I think gonna be 0:09:16.760 --> 0:09:19.160 a part of this as well, which then leads into 0:09:19.480 --> 0:09:23.520 number three. Democrats will argue that this is a tiny 0:09:23.600 --> 0:09:27.800 part of the overall picture. So you're gonna have the 0:09:27.800 --> 0:09:32.080 the GPS dossier Hillary APO was used by the spying 0:09:32.120 --> 0:09:35.320 apparatus at least in some level, in some way to 0:09:35.400 --> 0:09:38.600 look at Trump people. I think that will be confirmed tomorrow. 0:09:38.600 --> 0:09:42.600 These are my predictions. And then the Democrats will say, well, 0:09:42.600 --> 0:09:45.480 but those other stuff, and so therefore number three here 0:09:45.559 --> 0:09:47.280 is that they will argue, this is a tiny part 0:09:47.320 --> 0:09:49.680 of the overall picture. What's the other stuff? Oh, I 0:09:49.679 --> 0:09:51.920 can't tell you that sources and methods, sources and methods. 0:09:53.320 --> 0:09:55.120 The number four is going to be the the d 0:09:55.280 --> 0:09:58.319 o J. However, to anybody who is being honest about 0:09:58.360 --> 0:10:03.160 this looks bad. And what I mean by that is 0:10:03.600 --> 0:10:08.680 this was a presidential election. Everyone the the threshold, the 0:10:08.800 --> 0:10:13.160 bar or what should be needed to use the spying 0:10:13.200 --> 0:10:15.520 apparatus of the United States government, and we're talking to 0:10:15.640 --> 0:10:20.040 high level stuff here, the threshold for using that against 0:10:20.040 --> 0:10:24.760 a presidential campaign. You know, I remember, you know, when 0:10:24.800 --> 0:10:29.760 I was working on the intelligence side that we got 0:10:29.800 --> 0:10:34.480 so many lectures and ethics training and had legal repercussions 0:10:34.480 --> 0:10:39.600 and ramifications like you do not mess around on US 0:10:39.679 --> 0:10:42.040 soil with a B or C. You do not do 0:10:42.080 --> 0:10:46.119 these things, those things, And it was really and FISA 0:10:46.440 --> 0:10:49.200 is treated within the community at least it used to 0:10:49.240 --> 0:10:54.559 be as highly sensitive, very close hold stuff. And you 0:10:54.559 --> 0:10:56.559 you know, and if you ever were to have abused 0:10:56.640 --> 0:10:59.480 FISA in any way, it was not you were I mean, 0:11:00.120 --> 0:11:02.720 the least of your problems was gonna be that you 0:11:02.720 --> 0:11:09.280 were getting fired. Right, So, given that that the Department 0:11:09.360 --> 0:11:12.520 or Justice could have allowed this to happen, even if 0:11:12.559 --> 0:11:17.120 it is not immediately provable that this was just a 0:11:17.120 --> 0:11:20.360 political hit, on Trump. Based on what they released probably tomorrow, 0:11:22.160 --> 0:11:24.839 they're just gonna look like a combination d O J 0:11:25.040 --> 0:11:30.280 is gonna look incompetent and dishonest. Now, not the whole place, 0:11:30.360 --> 0:11:33.080 not everybody, but those individuals that were involved in this 0:11:33.880 --> 0:11:38.320 doesn't it does not pass the smell test that they 0:11:38.360 --> 0:11:41.080 would have done this that. Think about it this way. Everyone, 0:11:41.280 --> 0:11:43.280 you're in the room, okay, and put yourself This is 0:11:43.320 --> 0:11:46.120 a very useful exercise with any of these highly political 0:11:46.160 --> 0:11:50.719 government cases stories that we've been talking about here. Put 0:11:50.760 --> 0:11:52.079 yourself in the shoes. You're in the room, and so 0:11:52.280 --> 0:11:54.880 and says, hey, so, I think you know, I've got 0:11:54.880 --> 0:11:57.680 a couple of sources that are saying something about Trump Russia. 0:11:57.800 --> 0:11:59.440 By the way, that was out there in the open source, right, 0:11:59.480 --> 0:12:01.480 there's a lot of people say, oh Trump and Russia, 0:12:01.520 --> 0:12:05.520 and there's all these connections. I've even heard rumors with 0:12:05.600 --> 0:12:08.920 no factual basis, Oh Russia, organized crime. Trump. People just 0:12:08.960 --> 0:12:11.800 say this stuff. Right, it's a presidential campaign. You're sitting 0:12:11.800 --> 0:12:13.760 in the room and they go, hey, you know what, 0:12:14.360 --> 0:12:16.679 I've got this guy who's doing work for the d 0:12:16.800 --> 0:12:18.640 n C. Now maybe they didn't know that, but who 0:12:18.720 --> 0:12:21.120 knows what they know we're finding that out. I've got 0:12:21.120 --> 0:12:22.440 this guy that was doing work for the d n 0:12:22.480 --> 0:12:26.720 C and and he's got some really really bombshell level 0:12:26.720 --> 0:12:29.680 stuff on Trump. Uh, why don't we just whyn we 0:12:29.679 --> 0:12:31.600 just start tapping some phones and some people around Trump 0:12:31.600 --> 0:12:34.839 and see what's going on with that. That that would 0:12:34.840 --> 0:12:39.000 not send up the biggest, brightest red flags for any 0:12:39.120 --> 0:12:43.160 honest government employee at that level within the d o 0:12:43.240 --> 0:12:47.960 J is mind boggling. It's just mind boggling. And so 0:12:48.000 --> 0:12:50.520 then that brings me to again playing our game here 0:12:50.600 --> 0:12:52.920 of are you in the are you in the shoes 0:12:53.000 --> 0:12:57.120 of the government bureaucrat that praised me what they had 0:12:57.160 --> 0:12:59.600 to know that this was bad and they did it anyway, 0:13:00.360 --> 0:13:02.440 probably because I thought Hillary would win. They get away 0:13:02.480 --> 0:13:06.920 with it. But also never forget that if they had 0:13:06.960 --> 0:13:11.760 ever gotten information during this surveillance that was truly game 0:13:11.840 --> 0:13:14.800 over for Trump, it would have been game over for Trump. 0:13:14.840 --> 0:13:17.800 It was a risk that they were taking too. They 0:13:17.800 --> 0:13:20.880 could have been heroes, the heroes of the hashtag resistance. 0:13:20.880 --> 0:13:24.160 Oh and then number five on my list, so number 0:13:24.160 --> 0:13:27.680 one was the Fusion GPS dossier confirmed. Number two other 0:13:27.800 --> 0:13:32.319 unspecified things also part of the five's activity number Three, 0:13:32.800 --> 0:13:35.480 Democrats will argue this a tiny part of the overall picture. 0:13:35.559 --> 0:13:38.760 Four D O J top level will look bad. Five 0:13:39.000 --> 0:13:40.679 And this is the annoying part everyone. But I'm just 0:13:40.720 --> 0:13:44.160 gonna tell you the Russia conspiracy theory lives on. It's 0:13:44.200 --> 0:13:47.320 not gonna go away based on this memo. But this 0:13:47.400 --> 0:13:49.439 is a battle I think that the Democrats are about 0:13:49.440 --> 0:13:52.760 to lose. Is just a question how badly what kind 0:13:52.800 --> 0:13:58.080 of casualties, so to speak, does the Russia collusion conspiracy 0:13:58.160 --> 0:14:00.840 narrative take once this memo is out there on the street, 0:14:01.840 --> 0:14:04.520 and you know it could be tomorrow, which I mean, well, 0:14:04.559 --> 0:14:07.719 a very interesting freestyle Friday. I mean tomorrow night. You're 0:14:07.720 --> 0:14:09.880 always welcome to call with action movie quotes. But things 0:14:09.880 --> 0:14:12.240 could get things could get feisty tomorrow night on this 0:14:12.360 --> 0:14:14.120 radio show if we got a memo to work with. 0:14:14.200 --> 0:14:17.920 So there is that I see some lines lit. Do 0:14:18.040 --> 0:14:20.160 feel free to call in. We've got lines open here 0:14:20.200 --> 0:14:22.360 in the Freedom Hunt. We've got a lot more to discuss. 0:14:22.480 --> 0:14:26.680 Talk about Trump's visit to West Virginia today. Also, maybe 0:14:26.720 --> 0:14:30.400 I'll get to this, Uh, this teacher on California, he's 0:14:30.480 --> 0:14:35.080 just saying idiotic, terrible stuff about the military, you know, 0:14:35.160 --> 0:14:37.520 they're there're really only a few things left in the 0:14:37.520 --> 0:14:41.960 country that you you publicly degrade at your peril, no 0:14:42.000 --> 0:14:44.200 matter who you are, there are only a few things left, 0:14:45.120 --> 0:14:48.200 you know. Unfortunately, the military is still one of them. 0:14:48.760 --> 0:14:52.800 So I can't imagine how anybody could be so thoughtless 0:14:52.800 --> 0:14:54.880 and so dumb. But we might get into a little 0:14:54.880 --> 0:14:56.600 bit of a discussion there as well, because I want to. 0:14:56.640 --> 0:14:58.760 I want to address some of the idiotic points that 0:14:58.800 --> 0:15:01.760 were made. Um and I got a whole lot of 0:15:01.760 --> 0:15:03.480 stuff talking about, so when he had a quick break, 0:15:03.520 --> 0:15:15.120 and we'll be right back. The neat media is part 0:15:15.200 --> 0:15:18.840 of the deep state. The elite media group has survived 0:15:19.160 --> 0:15:23.400 by being in collusion with the senior bureaucracy, the City 0:15:23.440 --> 0:15:27.680 of Washington, the senior reporters, the senior bureaucrats, the senior lobbyists. 0:15:28.000 --> 0:15:30.240 They all hang out together, They all talked to each other, 0:15:30.560 --> 0:15:33.640 they all compare notes when they get to read this. 0:15:34.080 --> 0:15:36.760 What the American people need to understand is that the 0:15:37.360 --> 0:15:42.120 Obama administration, in a series of steps that clearly violated 0:15:42.160 --> 0:15:46.120 the law, tried to both protect Hillary Clinton and tried 0:15:46.160 --> 0:15:51.200 to destroy Donald Trump, and both actions were illegal. Uh 0:15:51.200 --> 0:15:53.720 and we're now in a situation, I believe where you're 0:15:53.720 --> 0:15:56.600 gonna see a requirement in the near future for an 0:15:56.600 --> 0:16:01.040 independent council literally to clean out the senior FBI and 0:16:01.080 --> 0:16:04.520 the senior Justice Department and to go after people who 0:16:04.560 --> 0:16:07.360 have left office who were part of the Obama team 0:16:07.440 --> 0:16:10.680 that was so clearly violating the law. That's former Speaker 0:16:10.760 --> 0:16:13.000 new Gingrich. Obviously, I know you all know that. But 0:16:13.080 --> 0:16:15.680 just to give the man credit for his words, I 0:16:15.720 --> 0:16:19.000 agree with everything he said except this I am not 0:16:19.240 --> 0:16:23.520 clear on. And I think this might and I'm trying 0:16:23.520 --> 0:16:28.240 to be responsible and how I say they're respectful and 0:16:28.240 --> 0:16:30.000 how I say this, I don't think they broke the law. 0:16:30.720 --> 0:16:33.120 That doesn't mean that they didn't do something really bad. 0:16:34.000 --> 0:16:37.200 But just hear me out here, when we're talking about 0:16:37.360 --> 0:16:41.960 not bringing if we're talking about the FBI and the 0:16:42.040 --> 0:16:46.000 d o J not bringing charges against Hillary, that's not 0:16:46.160 --> 0:16:49.680 breaking the law. That is refusing to enforce the law 0:16:49.760 --> 0:16:53.280 for political reasons. Not the same thing Hillary broke the law. Yes, 0:16:53.320 --> 0:16:55.760 So if he's talking about Hillary, no question she broke 0:16:55.800 --> 0:17:01.000 the law. But the whole Comie McCabe apparatus, they might 0:17:01.040 --> 0:17:04.000 be guilty of ethics violations. I think they certainly are 0:17:04.040 --> 0:17:08.080 guilty of ethics violations in their duties at the FBI, 0:17:08.400 --> 0:17:12.280 but official misconduct maybe you could get them for that, 0:17:12.680 --> 0:17:16.000 for not unless you get some real clear evidence of 0:17:17.240 --> 0:17:19.680 you know, I mean, violating the Hatch Act. I mean, 0:17:20.080 --> 0:17:22.920 you're starting to stretch here, right, So let's I want 0:17:22.920 --> 0:17:25.480 to keep our expectations in line with what is possible, 0:17:26.040 --> 0:17:29.159 with what is likely to be, which is what is 0:17:29.200 --> 0:17:31.280 likely to happen, and not just what sounds good or 0:17:31.320 --> 0:17:34.360 makes us feel good. And then on the spying portion 0:17:34.440 --> 0:17:38.440 of this, laws that may have been broken. Again, I'm 0:17:38.480 --> 0:17:41.480 speaking generally here, and I can't I don't know if 0:17:41.680 --> 0:17:45.639 if Newt was referring to specific law breaking or what 0:17:45.720 --> 0:17:49.040 specific law breaking is referring to. But here's what needs 0:17:49.080 --> 0:17:55.280 to be kept in mind. If the FBI used information 0:17:55.320 --> 0:17:58.280 for a FISA warrant that was real, they did not lie, 0:17:58.600 --> 0:18:01.800 they did not falsify, but they decided to use open 0:18:01.840 --> 0:18:05.160 source or non classified information in the case of Fusion 0:18:05.200 --> 0:18:08.400 GPS to get a warrant and went through the appropriate processes. 0:18:09.520 --> 0:18:12.960 That's an abuse of power. But and as you know, 0:18:13.000 --> 0:18:15.520 I've talked to former Prosecutor Andy McCarthy, who we all 0:18:15.560 --> 0:18:18.040 know in respect here on the show, and he agrees 0:18:18.040 --> 0:18:19.600 with me on this, that's an abuse of power, but 0:18:19.680 --> 0:18:23.320 that's not No one's going to prison for that, So 0:18:23.440 --> 0:18:26.440 we shouldn't set our expectations beyond what is likely here. 0:18:26.600 --> 0:18:30.400 Prison for leaking, Yes, that's a crime, but who did 0:18:30.400 --> 0:18:35.800 the leaking, We don't know, we have some guesses. Also, generally, 0:18:36.560 --> 0:18:41.560 very hard to prove a leak, unless somebody's like, hey, 0:18:41.640 --> 0:18:43.560 here's any I'm sending an email with, like, here's that 0:18:43.560 --> 0:18:45.399 classified thing that I'm not supposed to tell you what. 0:18:45.480 --> 0:18:48.639 Some people do do that, But generally, if it's a 0:18:48.720 --> 0:18:52.360 leak to a reporter and it comes from inside the government, 0:18:53.359 --> 0:18:58.000 because usually information is widely disseminated enough that you can't 0:18:58.000 --> 0:19:01.960 really narrow it down and anyway, So I just would 0:19:01.960 --> 0:19:04.440 note that right now there's a lot of attention, a 0:19:04.480 --> 0:19:07.080 lot of fervor around the issue of the memo and 0:19:07.119 --> 0:19:11.040 the release of the memo, very very unlikely that anyone 0:19:11.320 --> 0:19:14.880 is going to prison unless I am missing a statute. 0:19:14.880 --> 0:19:16.320 And if any of you out there are lawyers and 0:19:16.359 --> 0:19:18.240 you think I'm I'm missing it, let me know any 0:19:18.280 --> 0:19:21.359 of your prosecutors. Although prosecutors tend to be KG about 0:19:21.359 --> 0:19:26.720 calling into political talk shows unless they're former prosecutors. Uh, 0:19:27.320 --> 0:19:30.480 I don't see it. I don't see criminal charges coming 0:19:30.480 --> 0:19:34.439 from this. This is a massive political scandal, and I 0:19:34.480 --> 0:19:38.399 think the only remedy will be for we the people 0:19:39.000 --> 0:19:42.040 to take a political action in response to it, and 0:19:42.080 --> 0:19:44.000 also to fire a bunch of bumps that needs to 0:19:44.000 --> 0:19:47.399 happen to it. But and that's already started to happen. 0:19:47.880 --> 0:20:00.879 We got more to stay with me. He's holding the 0:20:01.000 --> 0:20:05.919 line for America. Buck Sexton is back, but spoken to 0:20:05.960 --> 0:20:09.280 a number of sources who have said that McCabe had 0:20:09.320 --> 0:20:13.680 actually asked members of the FBI um an FBI official 0:20:13.800 --> 0:20:16.680 actually to alter the three O two whether the three 0:20:16.680 --> 0:20:19.479 O two's, those are the witness interviews that the FBI 0:20:19.560 --> 0:20:22.639 conducts with the witnesses. There was one person in particular 0:20:23.200 --> 0:20:27.280 that they believe McCabe had asked the FBI agents to 0:20:27.320 --> 0:20:28.960 alter the three O two s. And I think this 0:20:29.119 --> 0:20:31.920 is significant. It doesn't mean that they altered the three 0:20:31.920 --> 0:20:33.880 O twos, but even the fact that if they were 0:20:33.920 --> 0:20:38.480 asked allegedly, if this actually happened, that is a huge violation, 0:20:39.040 --> 0:20:42.800 huge violation. And another very important question here is when 0:20:42.840 --> 0:20:47.280 the warrant was issued, who kept reauthorizing the warrant over 0:20:47.359 --> 0:20:50.560 and over again, as her friend Sarah Carter, she's a 0:20:50.600 --> 0:20:53.960 Fox News contributors here on Shawn Show a lot at 0:20:54.320 --> 0:20:58.560 nine pm, and she's pointing out that if they did 0:20:58.640 --> 0:21:02.560 change if if people in the fb I changed official records, 0:21:02.720 --> 0:21:05.440 if that was going on, then you are getting into 0:21:05.440 --> 0:21:10.800 criminal territory. Can't do that. That's not something that's on 0:21:10.840 --> 0:21:14.480 the list of Oh, yeah, sure you can. You can 0:21:14.520 --> 0:21:19.000 do this, and then you'll be uh, you'll just be fired. No, no, no. 0:21:19.040 --> 0:21:22.280 You cannot change witness statements, you cannot tamper with evidence. 0:21:23.400 --> 0:21:25.760 So we'll have to see that may be a part 0:21:25.800 --> 0:21:29.760 of this too. I can't imagine there are any huge 0:21:29.800 --> 0:21:33.159 surprises in this memo because if there were, I have 0:21:33.240 --> 0:21:34.520 a sense that they would have leaked. That's why I 0:21:34.520 --> 0:21:37.040 think the fusion GPS component is the one thing that 0:21:37.760 --> 0:21:41.919 is likely to be confirmed in it. But speaking of 0:21:42.000 --> 0:21:49.600 criminal sentencing and situations, the Mueller team, it's just hit 0:21:49.680 --> 0:21:53.240 the hit the wires today. Special Counsel Robert Mueller's team 0:21:53.320 --> 0:21:59.000 is postponing the sentencing of former National Security advisor and 0:21:59.000 --> 0:22:03.240 and general or decades Mike Flynn. They say they're doing 0:22:03.240 --> 0:22:07.480 this because of the status of the investigation, and that's 0:22:07.520 --> 0:22:10.560 got people asking questions about what this means for Russia, right, 0:22:10.600 --> 0:22:14.879 the Russia prope Russia. Ah, here's what I think about this. 0:22:15.800 --> 0:22:23.199 I believe that Flynn should be pardoned. I'm sorry, I'm oh, 0:22:23.240 --> 0:22:25.119 I'm sorry. I'm not sorry actually because I'm saying I 0:22:25.119 --> 0:22:28.480 think you should be pardoned. But this is not a 0:22:28.840 --> 0:22:32.520 this is not justice. It is not justice for General 0:22:32.560 --> 0:22:36.480 Flynn to be facing any kind of confinement. I get 0:22:36.480 --> 0:22:38.800 a sense here that his deal probably I don't know, 0:22:39.560 --> 0:22:44.080 but he's cooperated and they're extending him here there. They 0:22:44.080 --> 0:22:46.920 want to get more cooperation from him. But I think 0:22:46.920 --> 0:22:50.760 Flynn knows that he can cooperate without any damage to 0:22:50.920 --> 0:22:53.480 his honor or anything, because there's when it comes to 0:22:53.560 --> 0:22:55.800 Russia collusion, it's nothing for him to cooperate on. There's 0:22:55.840 --> 0:22:59.320 nothing here. So sure he'll answer whatever questions they've got. 0:22:59.320 --> 0:23:02.679 He'll he'll be as helpful as he possibly can. And 0:23:03.040 --> 0:23:06.800 that to me, this this signals and I'm reading in 0:23:06.920 --> 0:23:10.159 between the lines here, but to me, extending out the 0:23:10.200 --> 0:23:12.680 sentencing of Flynn meaning waiting before you see what the 0:23:12.720 --> 0:23:16.240 Flynn sentence is is just Mueller buy more time to 0:23:16.320 --> 0:23:21.600 have Flynn at least the prospect of Flynn in the 0:23:21.640 --> 0:23:24.760 background to sweat somebody, so to speak, here, to help 0:23:25.240 --> 0:23:30.280 put the pressure on someone. So that is a reason 0:23:30.320 --> 0:23:33.560 that you would see the Flynn sentencing extended a bit longer. 0:23:34.359 --> 0:23:36.600 But I mean, come on, you lied about a non 0:23:36.680 --> 0:23:41.200 crime the FBI, what's the real damage here? Maybe they're 0:23:41.200 --> 0:23:43.439 gonna say no, this is what might come up. The 0:23:43.440 --> 0:23:45.639 only way I think you see Flynn not getting pardoned 0:23:45.640 --> 0:23:49.760 by the president is if there's no jail time, still 0:23:49.760 --> 0:23:52.639 would have a felony on his record, so means he 0:23:52.680 --> 0:23:55.119 can't uh well, I guess it depends on the state right, 0:23:55.119 --> 0:23:58.399 But can't vote, can't on a firearm, all kinds of 0:23:58.440 --> 0:24:04.320 problems that come with felony, colony record. But we'll see 0:24:04.320 --> 0:24:08.800 if Trump is willing to pardon him. I mean, you 0:24:08.800 --> 0:24:11.640 can imagine for me, it's the right thing to do. 0:24:12.600 --> 0:24:17.000 It also would have the little added wonderful bonus of 0:24:17.040 --> 0:24:20.040 making liberals completely lose their minds. I mean, it would 0:24:20.080 --> 0:24:24.040 be think about it, twenty four hours. Oh my gosh, 0:24:24.720 --> 0:24:29.679 the constitution has been lit on fire. But this is 0:24:29.720 --> 0:24:33.280 the president's constitutional prerogative. He has. He absolutely has the 0:24:33.280 --> 0:24:36.000 There is no person who can say that the President 0:24:36.040 --> 0:24:40.359 does not have the authority to pardon Michael Flynn. He 0:24:40.480 --> 0:24:45.680 absolutely positively does. But they're still gonna say, oh my gosh, 0:24:45.760 --> 0:24:48.120 the rule of laws. But it doesn't matter. They don't 0:24:48.119 --> 0:24:50.560 even care. They just hate Trump. This is all nonsense. 0:24:52.200 --> 0:24:54.320 I mean, the arguments they've been making against the memo 0:24:54.400 --> 0:24:57.880 release have just been laughable. I'm seeing people get all 0:24:57.920 --> 0:25:00.719 all sanctimonious, but all sources am not. Though some people's 0:25:00.720 --> 0:25:02.639 lives will be in dangerous, this is not. I I 0:25:02.760 --> 0:25:05.320 assure you, there's nothing that's gonna come out of this 0:25:05.359 --> 0:25:07.159 new Nois memo that you're gonna be like, oh wow, 0:25:07.720 --> 0:25:11.280 I'm glad I'm not that guy. You don't want to Well, 0:25:11.520 --> 0:25:14.639 maybe in terms of FBI people's careers, but not like 0:25:14.680 --> 0:25:19.440 a safety issue. So the arguments have been made, I 0:25:19.440 --> 0:25:22.200 think they've been made in bad faith, but they still 0:25:22.240 --> 0:25:24.440 they still got Flynn on the hook. Here. See if 0:25:24.440 --> 0:25:28.879 they can extend this out a little bit. I wonder, 0:25:29.000 --> 0:25:30.959 what do we get a sense here of what his? 0:25:32.800 --> 0:25:35.600 What I'm trying to see what his? Yeah, here we go. 0:25:35.760 --> 0:25:37.560 They don't want to tell the judge it on Fox 0:25:37.600 --> 0:25:40.520 News this to sentence Flynn until they can tell the 0:25:40.600 --> 0:25:45.439 judge that he helped in the case and Flynn, if 0:25:45.440 --> 0:25:47.320 Flim were ever asked test find a trial, he would 0:25:47.320 --> 0:25:50.800 be a better witness if still facing the prospect of sentencing. 0:25:51.400 --> 0:25:53.320 So they're just holding us over him. And this is 0:25:53.359 --> 0:25:56.520 why I really have always resented this notion that there's 0:25:56.560 --> 0:26:00.600 no cost really to this investigation that you know, we 0:26:00.640 --> 0:26:02.560 were just trying to get at the truth here. People's 0:26:02.560 --> 0:26:05.680 lives are being ruined. You know, we sit here, folks, 0:26:05.680 --> 0:26:07.720 how many times we have to go through this? Now, 0:26:07.720 --> 0:26:09.880 we got this with the Trump administration. The same thing 0:26:10.640 --> 0:26:17.000 happened with the whole uh plaime leak fiasco. They knew, 0:26:17.080 --> 0:26:19.240 they knew who the leaker was. The leaker, it was 0:26:19.240 --> 0:26:21.720 an accident and he did not intend to leak anything 0:26:21.760 --> 0:26:23.960 on purpose, and they agreed with that, and it was 0:26:24.000 --> 0:26:26.240 just that, look, and that does happen. I've said before, 0:26:26.840 --> 0:26:30.040 classified accidentally does slip out. Sometimes that does happen. I'm 0:26:30.080 --> 0:26:32.120 not saying it's okay, but it happens. And that's taken 0:26:32.119 --> 0:26:35.080 into account when someone's going to be punished for it. 0:26:35.080 --> 0:26:37.680 It doesn't happen a hundred times on an unsecured server, 0:26:37.840 --> 0:26:40.080 and you know, over and over and over again, and 0:26:40.080 --> 0:26:46.840 nobody knows what Hillary style, but it does happen. But 0:26:47.119 --> 0:26:50.200 that was all just to get Cheney. Here we are 0:26:50.240 --> 0:26:54.840 again that we had one Republican administrator, the last Republican administration, 0:26:56.040 --> 0:27:01.080 they managed to create this false story to get a 0:27:01.160 --> 0:27:04.639 special counsel going, and they almost they almost took down 0:27:04.680 --> 0:27:06.360 the Vice president with it. That was what they're trying 0:27:06.400 --> 0:27:09.280 to do. And now we've got another one. You'll notice 0:27:09.320 --> 0:27:12.320 no special counsel during the Obama years, despite all the 0:27:12.400 --> 0:27:15.199 stuff that we could have looked into more there, Man, 0:27:15.240 --> 0:27:17.040 I would have liked the special council just on fast 0:27:17.080 --> 0:27:21.600 and furious. No one even really talks about it anymore. Yeah, 0:27:21.640 --> 0:27:23.480 you know, let's just let's just start a federal government 0:27:23.520 --> 0:27:27.520 program where we where we tell gun dealers to sell 0:27:27.600 --> 0:27:31.399 guns illegally two people that we know we're going to 0:27:31.440 --> 0:27:33.719 then make their way down to the cartels. Oh that's right, 0:27:33.760 --> 0:27:38.080 who killed thirty thousand people last year? No special counsel 0:27:38.160 --> 0:27:40.679 for that, right, people are dying a border patrol agent dive, 0:27:40.720 --> 0:27:44.560 but no no special counsel there? Why, Oh, that's right, 0:27:45.280 --> 0:27:49.760 because Eric Holder was running the Justice Department. I brought 0:27:49.800 --> 0:27:52.919 this up today when they're asking about how oh Trump passed. 0:27:53.240 --> 0:27:57.040 Did Trump asked if if McCabe was on his team 0:27:57.240 --> 0:28:03.000 or is her on his team? Eric Older publicly proclaimed 0:28:03.040 --> 0:28:07.160 that he was president this is he was President Obama's wingman, 0:28:07.520 --> 0:28:10.560 and then you'll be working very closely together. You know, 0:28:10.600 --> 0:28:12.919 they can't have it both ways. Is the Department of 0:28:13.000 --> 0:28:22.080 Justice a a subservience political organism too? The executive branch 0:28:22.160 --> 0:28:25.119 or is it its own branch of government? They can't 0:28:25.240 --> 0:28:29.160 keep shifting the storyline. I mean they do, but it's 0:28:29.160 --> 0:28:31.840 not fair, it's not right. It is dishonest for them 0:28:31.840 --> 0:28:33.760 to keep shifting the storyline. And that's what we've seen 0:28:33.800 --> 0:28:39.760 going on here. Find it very, uh, very disconcerting that 0:28:40.000 --> 0:28:43.800 this is in fact where we are with it. And man, 0:28:43.840 --> 0:28:45.280 I just want them to I just want them to 0:28:45.280 --> 0:28:48.080 give us this this frigging memo. You know, I've had enough. 0:28:49.160 --> 0:28:50.720 I've had I don't if I have to see one 0:28:50.760 --> 0:28:54.400 more headline on SENNA, one more thing from Adam Schiff. 0:28:54.440 --> 0:28:59.480 You know, are so bad that guy. This is what 0:28:59.520 --> 0:29:03.360 the Democrats put up there for us too to fight against. 0:29:03.440 --> 0:29:05.840 It makes it makes the job of getting annoyed with 0:29:06.160 --> 0:29:09.440 their lies a little bit easier because these are not 0:29:10.040 --> 0:29:11.680 some of these democrats that are making the case, and 0:29:11.680 --> 0:29:15.080 these are not likable peoples, are not compelling personalities, that's 0:29:15.080 --> 0:29:18.400 for sure. Ron in Alaska, you got thoughts, I got time. 0:29:18.440 --> 0:29:22.040 What's up? Hey? How are you doing? Buck Shield? Tie? 0:29:22.120 --> 0:29:27.040 She'll tiey, buddy. I'm good. Listen. I believe this goes 0:29:27.080 --> 0:29:30.479 back to my high school days, but in in history. 0:29:30.560 --> 0:29:33.280 But I told my teacher back then that there has 0:29:33.360 --> 0:29:37.320 been a government within our government since the JFK assassination 0:29:38.040 --> 0:29:41.960 and it hasn't changed since in all these years. And 0:29:42.800 --> 0:29:46.920 it's my belief that the president should go and get 0:29:46.960 --> 0:29:50.040 either a point or a special prosc and purge all 0:29:50.160 --> 0:29:53.840 these FBI, d O J possibly looking in S A, 0:29:54.000 --> 0:29:57.040 passibly looking at C I A, and and get rid 0:29:57.040 --> 0:30:00.240 of the people at the top levels that uh where 0:30:00.240 --> 0:30:04.200 the corruption lies. Because this a lot of these are 0:30:04.400 --> 0:30:07.560 Obama holdovers and and he really should have had em 0:30:07.600 --> 0:30:11.000 purged when he took over, but I guess it couldn't happen. 0:30:11.160 --> 0:30:14.400 I don't know why. But but at any rate, h 0:30:14.840 --> 0:30:17.960 the corruption and the lies that are going on in 0:30:18.080 --> 0:30:21.880 Washington right now, the American voters better wake up, and 0:30:21.960 --> 0:30:25.040 I'm telling them they'd better wake up, because if we 0:30:25.120 --> 0:30:29.720 continue the way we're going, we're gonna lose this country. Uh. 0:30:29.840 --> 0:30:36.200 We we have people that that are not they're so 0:30:36.280 --> 0:30:39.320 corrupt that that that they have no allegiance to the 0:30:39.400 --> 0:30:42.520 country anymore, and and they're willing to do anything that 0:30:42.680 --> 0:30:46.280 they want to obtain their goals. Well, it's definitely true. 0:30:46.320 --> 0:30:47.800 There are people with a lot of power in our 0:30:47.840 --> 0:30:49.920 government ron who are gonna We're gonna do what they 0:30:49.920 --> 0:30:52.400 can do. They'll they'll do what they can to hurt 0:30:52.440 --> 0:30:55.360 the country if it means that they get to inflict 0:30:55.360 --> 0:30:57.520 their political wishes on us in some way. Thank you 0:30:57.520 --> 0:31:00.960 for calling it from Alaska, my friend shield Side. Uh, 0:31:01.000 --> 0:31:02.880 we got a lot more to get into here. My friends. 0:31:03.000 --> 0:31:06.560 Talk a bit about Trump's speech today in West Virginia. 0:31:07.400 --> 0:31:09.960 We'll discuss that and uh, and a whole lot more. 0:31:10.000 --> 0:31:28.120 So stay right there. So comey, formerly FBI director just 0:31:28.160 --> 0:31:30.240 put out a tweet before I came on air. Here's 0:31:30.240 --> 0:31:34.880 what it says. All should appreciate the FBI speaking up. 0:31:35.840 --> 0:31:39.160 I wish more of our leaders would, but take heart. 0:31:39.640 --> 0:31:43.240 American history shows that in the long run, weasels and 0:31:43.320 --> 0:31:46.360 liars never hold the field, so long as good people 0:31:46.440 --> 0:31:49.680 stand up. Not a lot of schools or streets named 0:31:49.680 --> 0:31:57.600 for Joe McCarthy. Okay, uh, you know, call me the guru. UM, 0:31:57.720 --> 0:32:00.280 explain to me who who are the weasels and liars? Year? 0:32:01.120 --> 0:32:02.600 So as he saying, is he saying the president's a 0:32:02.640 --> 0:32:04.479 weasel or a liar? Is that? Is that what's going on? 0:32:04.640 --> 0:32:07.240 I feel like he is do we all do we 0:32:07.280 --> 0:32:09.680 all think that we can move past? Oh Comey, he's 0:32:10.560 --> 0:32:13.880 he's not a partisan player. He's not trust me, he's been. 0:32:14.360 --> 0:32:15.880 He just does what's best for Comey all the time. 0:32:15.880 --> 0:32:18.400 I remember, rich lawyer. Stop thinking of it as an 0:32:18.400 --> 0:32:20.800 FBI Guy's not an FBI guy. He's a rich lawyer. 0:32:20.840 --> 0:32:25.479 All right. That changes things very very quickly, I believe. 0:32:25.960 --> 0:32:31.280 Justin in Winston Salem, North Carolina, what's up? Justin? Hey? 0:32:31.320 --> 0:32:34.480 How's it going? But I'm good. Yeah, I just wanted 0:32:34.520 --> 0:32:39.240 to make a comment regarding your last caller there from Alaska. UM, 0:32:39.280 --> 0:32:42.720 I'm probably as far away from him as uh as 0:32:42.760 --> 0:32:45.840 he is from me. I'm from Wednesday of North Carolina. 0:32:45.920 --> 0:32:48.080 I'm twenty nine years old, and uh, well, I just 0:32:48.080 --> 0:32:49.880 wanted to let him know that the American people have 0:32:50.000 --> 0:32:53.960 woken up. We woke up last year when we voted 0:32:54.000 --> 0:32:57.560 Donald Trump end office. Uh we need to change, and uh, 0:32:57.680 --> 0:33:02.479 well he's the first start. Problem is we can, you know, 0:33:02.840 --> 0:33:06.040 go about this process of special prosecutors and all that, 0:33:06.160 --> 0:33:09.760 but nothing ever happens to the Democrats, you know, And 0:33:10.040 --> 0:33:12.480 I think it's a big problem. So I mean, what 0:33:12.520 --> 0:33:17.200 do we have to do to really prosecute the Democrats? 0:33:17.240 --> 0:33:20.160 I mean, I'll be all these high ranking officials and 0:33:20.200 --> 0:33:24.000 all that, and they seem to just scathe off and 0:33:24.880 --> 0:33:28.440 you know, skip sentences and uh, really get away with all, 0:33:28.720 --> 0:33:30.800 you know, justin I don't think I'm being I don't 0:33:30.800 --> 0:33:35.120 think I'm being uh, you know, what's the word. I'm trying. 0:33:35.200 --> 0:33:36.720 I don't think I have tunnel vision here when I 0:33:36.760 --> 0:33:40.840 say that, I don't ever see Republicans playing the game 0:33:40.920 --> 0:33:43.320 quite the same way that Democrats do with this stuff. 0:33:44.000 --> 0:33:46.600 I've Saturday before and told you about all the different, 0:33:47.560 --> 0:33:52.480 very clearly politically motivated prosecutions of top level Republicans across 0:33:52.480 --> 0:33:59.000 the country. I've gone on the list, right, Rick Perry, Um, 0:33:59.520 --> 0:34:05.080 Chris See, Scott Walker McDonald, former governor of Virginia. I mean, 0:34:05.080 --> 0:34:09.320 these are all political prosecutions, and they all went nowhere, 0:34:09.320 --> 0:34:11.359 by the way, except for McDonald. The Supreme Court had 0:34:11.400 --> 0:34:14.239 to reverse that because it was such a stretch to 0:34:14.280 --> 0:34:17.200 get him on corruption. And you see the other side 0:34:17.239 --> 0:34:19.880 of it here, like it just doesn't they don't. The 0:34:19.920 --> 0:34:21.960 game isn't played the same way. And I don't really 0:34:21.960 --> 0:34:23.960 have an answer for that other than start to say 0:34:23.960 --> 0:34:28.920 that I just think that democrats power is the power 0:34:29.080 --> 0:34:31.640 is the reason for the existence of the Democrat Party. 0:34:31.680 --> 0:34:34.960 It's not it's not a sense of shared principle. It's 0:34:35.239 --> 0:34:40.640 larger state and the emotional trajectory of the people that 0:34:40.760 --> 0:34:43.160 call themselves Democrats at any point in time. But I 0:34:43.160 --> 0:34:45.040 don't have a clear answer for other than I see 0:34:45.040 --> 0:34:48.360 it too, man, I cannot Why do we not have 0:34:48.360 --> 0:34:51.160 a special counsel under Obama? Never even discussed, really, right, 0:34:51.200 --> 0:34:54.200 it just never happened. We had a special counsel under Bush, 0:34:54.600 --> 0:34:57.839 we have a special counsel under Trump. And people say, well, 0:34:57.960 --> 0:35:00.000 we have a special counselor to Clinton because we need 0:35:00.000 --> 0:35:03.080 needed one, or we at least need an investigation. I mean, 0:35:03.080 --> 0:35:06.400 the guy was doing all kinds of flagrantly illegal and 0:35:06.480 --> 0:35:09.840 improper stuff, so and not like, oh, maybe we'll find something. 0:35:09.880 --> 0:35:12.600 We keep investigating. We know what he did, Andy Loddon 0:35:12.600 --> 0:35:14.480 and growth then he got away with it. So I mean, 0:35:14.520 --> 0:35:17.040 and that's our political history for the last twenty plus years. Right, 0:35:17.080 --> 0:35:19.360 So this is scary stuff. But justin you're right, we 0:35:19.400 --> 0:35:23.399 woke up. We uh, we defeated the Hillary machine and 0:35:23.760 --> 0:35:27.680 against all odds and as it seems now against Stephen 0:35:27.719 --> 0:35:29.560 the wishes of some of the deep state of the 0:35:29.640 --> 0:35:32.040 d o J. Thanks for calling your brother. Good to 0:35:32.080 --> 0:35:35.000 talk to you from North Carolina. I appreciate it. Uh, 0:35:35.160 --> 0:35:40.920 let's talk Larry in Johnsville, Ohio? Was it Larry? All right? Buck? 0:35:41.120 --> 0:35:44.000 Enjoy your show, enjoy your calls. Larry. What's going on? 0:35:44.600 --> 0:35:48.080 I got a couple comments about the state of the 0:35:48.280 --> 0:35:52.560 Union address. I think you're either be a thorough investigation 0:35:52.719 --> 0:35:58.040 by the c I, a FBI, a BC. Whoever whoever 0:35:58.320 --> 0:36:03.560 scorted super glue on all of them democratic seats had 0:36:03.640 --> 0:36:06.960 to be prosecuted. It is mean to spread all that 0:36:07.040 --> 0:36:11.640 super glow. And it's not environmentally friendly either, that's true. 0:36:12.440 --> 0:36:19.960 And one another observation, Uh, somebody I had to send 0:36:20.080 --> 0:36:26.600 Nancy Pulski some more polly grip because I think she 0:36:26.800 --> 0:36:32.960 was having trouble with her dangers. Either that or depends 0:36:33.320 --> 0:36:37.120 was righting up winter. She did not look happy. I 0:36:37.120 --> 0:36:39.080 will agree that she did not look happy at that 0:36:39.120 --> 0:36:43.160 state of the Union. Larry and Larry, yes, sir, and 0:36:44.239 --> 0:36:49.560 that new Supreme Court just was that him or a 0:36:49.640 --> 0:36:52.279 statue of course which I don't know. Did he not 0:36:52.360 --> 0:36:57.400 stand up or something? He nothing? I didn't see that, 0:36:57.480 --> 0:37:00.680 but okay, I'll write him a strongly worded Larry. Thanks 0:37:00.680 --> 0:37:02.840 for calling it from Ohio, my friend Shields. It was 0:37:02.880 --> 0:37:05.840 like Larry adds a special flavor to the show. I appreciate. 0:37:05.920 --> 0:37:11.359 Here from Barry down in Biloxi, Mississippi. What's up, Barry? Hey, 0:37:11.400 --> 0:37:13.000 what how are you doing? I'm good man, thank you 0:37:13.040 --> 0:37:15.840 for your call. I'm wondering. I'm wondering why have we 0:37:15.920 --> 0:37:20.319 not hurt anything at all about Hatch Act violations. I mean, 0:37:20.360 --> 0:37:23.880 I thought federal employees couldn't even wear a campaign button 0:37:23.960 --> 0:37:26.520 or have a poster, and here these people are spending 0:37:26.560 --> 0:37:29.879 their whole time on the job uh favor in their 0:37:29.880 --> 0:37:32.759 political candidate and and trying to wipe out the other guy. 0:37:33.320 --> 0:37:36.480 Does that still exists? Yeah, I mean the Hatch Act. 0:37:36.920 --> 0:37:40.440 I don't think the Hatch Act is. I think you 0:37:40.520 --> 0:37:43.279 just get fired for it. So the Hatch Act is 0:37:43.320 --> 0:37:47.800 not a criminal statute. I think the penalty is just firing, 0:37:48.400 --> 0:37:51.600 and so it's it's rarely enforced. Yes, you're right, you 0:37:51.640 --> 0:37:53.560 can't wear You know, when I was in the CIA, 0:37:53.680 --> 0:37:55.680 I couldn't show up at a campaign event say hey, 0:37:55.680 --> 0:37:58.560 I'm buck, I'm from the CIA, and the CIA supports 0:37:58.600 --> 0:38:00.400 this guy, right, which you know may may not have 0:38:00.440 --> 0:38:02.560 been a good thing for that candidate. Um, but that 0:38:02.840 --> 0:38:04.200 you know, I could have gotten fired for that under 0:38:04.200 --> 0:38:06.520 the Hatch Act. But it's not a criminal thing. So 0:38:06.560 --> 0:38:09.440 that's why it doesn't have quite the same impact. And 0:38:09.480 --> 0:38:11.480 also I'll just say it, and I can't tell you 0:38:11.600 --> 0:38:14.759 very more than just my own impression. I only ever 0:38:14.800 --> 0:38:18.080 heard Hatch Act complaints from Democrats about Republicans when I 0:38:18.120 --> 0:38:20.839 was in government, never the other way. So we're just 0:38:21.480 --> 0:38:23.920 less snowflake like I guess when it comes to that stuff. 0:38:23.960 --> 0:38:26.759 But thanks very for calling team our two coming up. 0:38:38.040 --> 0:38:40.640 He's back with you now, because when it comes to 0:38:40.680 --> 0:38:49.920 the fight for truth, the fuck never stops. Africa and 0:38:50.080 --> 0:38:54.759 Hispanic unemployment have both reached the lowest levels ever recorded. 0:38:55.120 --> 0:39:00.880 That's something very very special. And when I made that 0:39:00.960 --> 0:39:06.640 statement the other night, there was zero movement from the Democrats. 0:39:06.840 --> 0:39:11.680 They sat there stone called, no smile, no applause. You 0:39:11.719 --> 0:39:14.480 would have thought that on that one they would have 0:39:14.520 --> 0:39:18.200 sort of at least clapped a little bit, which tells 0:39:18.239 --> 0:39:21.359 you perhaps they'd rather see us not do well than 0:39:21.440 --> 0:39:24.239 see our country do great. And that's not good. There's 0:39:24.280 --> 0:39:28.120 one more, very important promise we're keeping. No longer are 0:39:28.200 --> 0:39:37.839 we making apologies for America. We don't apologize anymore. We're 0:39:37.880 --> 0:39:41.759 proud of our history, we're confident in our values, and 0:39:41.800 --> 0:39:45.560 we're grateful to our heroes, and we are determined to 0:39:45.680 --> 0:39:50.560 create a brighter future for all of our people. Welcome 0:39:50.560 --> 0:39:52.680 back to the buck Sex and show everybody our too 0:39:53.640 --> 0:39:57.160 is up and running here. That was President Trump earlier 0:39:57.200 --> 0:40:01.160 today in West Virginia. And some times I pose the 0:40:01.320 --> 0:40:05.680 question as a means of getting into some analysis here 0:40:05.719 --> 0:40:07.960 in the show, why do they hate Trump so much? 0:40:08.320 --> 0:40:13.120 And you know that answer he or that that excerpt 0:40:13.200 --> 0:40:15.799 we just played for you where you talked about how 0:40:15.840 --> 0:40:19.719 no more apologizing for America and a different view of 0:40:19.719 --> 0:40:22.080 America's role in the world, that's one of the reasons 0:40:22.080 --> 0:40:26.400 why they hate him so much, and that hatred burns 0:40:26.520 --> 0:40:29.640 so brightly in the minds of leftists and Democrats that they, 0:40:29.800 --> 0:40:33.040 in fact do, I think, want to see the country 0:40:33.120 --> 0:40:36.239 suffer rather than see it prosper under Trump. I don't 0:40:36.280 --> 0:40:38.880 think that's an overstatement. I don't think it's an unfair 0:40:39.920 --> 0:40:42.360 point for the president to make. I think it's actually 0:40:43.280 --> 0:40:46.560 quite clear that that is what we are dealing with. 0:40:47.760 --> 0:40:53.520 The economy is very strong. The comments that have been 0:40:53.520 --> 0:40:58.840 made by many Democrats in response to the tax reform, 0:40:59.840 --> 0:41:02.239 I think that that might come back to haunt them, 0:41:02.280 --> 0:41:04.080 even as far down aline as the mid terms. I 0:41:04.120 --> 0:41:10.080 really do, and Trump certainly thinks so. With these corporations 0:41:10.120 --> 0:41:14.280 giving tremendous bonuses to everybody, that Nancy Pelosi called crumbs, 0:41:15.200 --> 0:41:18.120 that was a bad that could be like deplorable. That 0:41:18.160 --> 0:41:21.600 does that make sense? Deplorable and crumbs, those two words 0:41:21.680 --> 0:41:24.799 they seem to have a resemblance. I hope it has 0:41:24.800 --> 0:41:27.959 the same meaning. But she called it crumbs. When people 0:41:27.960 --> 0:41:30.640 are getting two thousand and three thousand dollars and one 0:41:30.680 --> 0:41:34.239 thousand dollars, that's not crumbs. It's a lot of money. Now, 0:41:34.280 --> 0:41:38.919 most of the Democrats, and even including Pelosi, aren't so 0:41:38.920 --> 0:41:42.640 so dumb that they can't understand why it's bad politics 0:41:43.719 --> 0:41:46.360 to say that a few thousand dollars for a family 0:41:46.400 --> 0:41:50.000 in this country, that's you know, earning somewhere in the 0:41:50.080 --> 0:41:53.040 in the median income of fifty thou dollars a year. 0:41:53.120 --> 0:41:57.960 Let's say, Uh, most people can understand why that's bad politics. 0:41:58.000 --> 0:42:01.120 But what you see exposed again in again with the Democrats, 0:42:01.160 --> 0:42:03.560 and this is the Democrat party of today. And Trump 0:42:03.640 --> 0:42:05.480 understands this, which is why I think he's got so 0:42:05.560 --> 0:42:09.640 much confidence. Although Trump certainly never lacks in confidence, but 0:42:09.880 --> 0:42:12.719 confidence in the GOP's fortunes going into the mid terms 0:42:12.760 --> 0:42:18.120 because otherwise you look at the historical the the historical 0:42:18.160 --> 0:42:21.919 record for midterm elections the party in power, I think 0:42:21.920 --> 0:42:27.080 they've only been three times stretching back to the Civil War, 0:42:28.040 --> 0:42:32.280 that the party that was in power did not lose 0:42:32.320 --> 0:42:35.480 seats in a mid term in the midterm election. Right, 0:42:35.520 --> 0:42:40.840 it was George W. Bush, Richard Nixon, and I'm forgetting 0:42:40.880 --> 0:42:44.480 what the third one was. Sorry, but pretty good that 0:42:44.520 --> 0:42:46.000 I pulled that out of thin air though, Right, Steve, 0:42:46.040 --> 0:42:48.200 come on, I mean, give the guys some credit. So 0:42:48.360 --> 0:42:53.000 it's generally speaking unlikely that you will have gains for 0:42:53.040 --> 0:42:55.560 Republicans the mid terms, and it's a question will they lose, 0:42:56.239 --> 0:42:59.239 you know, three seats or twenty seats um But I 0:42:59.239 --> 0:43:01.480 think Trump is feeling pretty confident about it because the 0:43:01.480 --> 0:43:05.000 economy is strong, and because the Democrats keep exposing themselves 0:43:05.520 --> 0:43:07.319 for all of us who care to pay attention to it, 0:43:07.360 --> 0:43:09.560 for all of us who I want to know what's 0:43:09.560 --> 0:43:13.799 really going on, exposing themselves as having a disdain for 0:43:13.960 --> 0:43:18.520 just normal people. You can say, for the folks. Democrats 0:43:18.600 --> 0:43:24.800 just doesn't doesn't really lock in with their preferred narrative 0:43:24.800 --> 0:43:26.680 about what's going on in the country. They just don't 0:43:27.120 --> 0:43:29.880 have a place for people who are not in a 0:43:30.000 --> 0:43:34.719 protected category, are not a an oppressed group or a 0:43:34.800 --> 0:43:38.320 victimized group. I mean, if you're just somebody who wants 0:43:38.320 --> 0:43:41.400 to live your life, do your thing, and not have 0:43:41.520 --> 0:43:45.400 the government as a barrier to your own pursuit of 0:43:45.440 --> 0:43:48.719 happiness and success, whatever that may be, the Democrat Party 0:43:48.719 --> 0:43:51.600 doesn't really have a place for you. You know, hard 0:43:51.640 --> 0:43:54.800 work is not something that you can really talk about 0:43:54.840 --> 0:43:57.600 when your first concern, as it is for the Democrats, 0:43:58.560 --> 0:44:02.799 is where you fit into the patriarchy, where you fit 0:44:02.840 --> 0:44:06.560 into the various layers of oppression, you know, the we 0:44:06.560 --> 0:44:10.520 haven't talked about intersectionality in a while, but intersectionality is 0:44:10.560 --> 0:44:14.640 not just a fancy campus college campus term that Democrats 0:44:14.680 --> 0:44:18.120 throw around to sound like they know what they're talking about. 0:44:18.160 --> 0:44:23.120 It also has infected the beliefs and the policies of 0:44:23.120 --> 0:44:26.279 the Democrat Party, which is that everything has to be 0:44:26.360 --> 0:44:32.800 broken down into these groups. These are balkanized smaller versions 0:44:33.040 --> 0:44:35.600 of the electorate, and then you have to pander to them, 0:44:35.600 --> 0:44:37.120 and you have to turn them against each other and 0:44:37.200 --> 0:44:40.960 use them against the the opposition, which is the Republican 0:44:41.000 --> 0:44:44.239 Party of course, which is now because of Trump and 0:44:44.280 --> 0:44:47.120 the messaging from it, a party once again of just 0:44:47.880 --> 0:44:52.280 working folks just don't really need to be constantly lectured 0:44:52.280 --> 0:44:57.879 about there there inadequacies when it comes to progressive ideology 0:44:57.920 --> 0:44:59.919 that they just ideology. They just want to be able 0:44:59.920 --> 0:45:02.200 to of support their families, be left on their own 0:45:02.239 --> 0:45:07.040 and do their thing, and that's a good thing. But 0:45:07.239 --> 0:45:11.080 on immigration, I will continue to hit this subject because 0:45:11.080 --> 0:45:14.120 I think that, well, we know it's a very important 0:45:14.120 --> 0:45:17.160 policy matter. This is where we're really going to see 0:45:18.040 --> 0:45:21.080 what the what the Trumpsters made of when it comes 0:45:21.080 --> 0:45:24.320 to negotiating and acting as a dealmaker while he's the president. 0:45:25.440 --> 0:45:27.320 This is not gonna be easy. He's gonna have to 0:45:27.360 --> 0:45:31.040 thread the needle here quite a bit. But on immigration, 0:45:31.760 --> 0:45:34.279 some of you actually brought it up here earlier on 0:45:34.320 --> 0:45:38.680 the show that maybe this initial offer of one point 0:45:38.760 --> 0:45:43.120 eight million dreamers, who would I know doc our recipients. 0:45:43.160 --> 0:45:45.000 I said, you know the problem with dreamers, It is 0:45:45.040 --> 0:45:51.000 a it is a use useful shorthand, right, so DOCCA 0:45:51.640 --> 0:45:55.560 is not really quite as a specific a way to 0:45:55.560 --> 0:45:59.200 refer to them. Anyway, Trump maybe is doing this just 0:45:59.239 --> 0:46:02.879 a show. The Democrats are entirely un serious about immigration 0:46:03.640 --> 0:46:06.480 and cannot allow Trump a win on this, even if 0:46:06.480 --> 0:46:08.839 it means that Trump would be giving away more than 0:46:08.880 --> 0:46:12.320 I think a lot of people in his base would 0:46:12.320 --> 0:46:14.600 be willing or would be happy with him giving away. 0:46:14.640 --> 0:46:19.120 And here is what what Trump said about it earlier today. 0:46:19.719 --> 0:46:24.279 If the Democrats choose to philibuster a framework that includes 0:46:24.320 --> 0:46:29.440 a generous path to citizenship or something that is not fair, 0:46:30.400 --> 0:46:32.360 we are not going to improve it. We're just not 0:46:32.400 --> 0:46:35.040 going to improve it. So we'll either have something that's 0:46:35.120 --> 0:46:39.279 fair and equitable and good and secure we're gonna have 0:46:39.320 --> 0:46:43.480 nothing at all. We will be demonstrating that we are 0:46:43.800 --> 0:46:46.640 very very serious. One of the reasons I gave a 0:46:46.719 --> 0:46:49.600 number that was I thought a very generous number was 0:46:49.719 --> 0:46:52.319 because I wanted to see whether or not they were 0:46:52.360 --> 0:46:55.280 interested in approving that. Because if they don't approve something 0:46:55.840 --> 0:46:59.759 within that sphere that means very simply that then that 0:47:00.040 --> 0:47:02.520 can to approve it at all. They want to use 0:47:02.560 --> 0:47:06.440 it for an election issue, but it's now an election 0:47:06.520 --> 0:47:10.720 issue that will go to our benefit, not their benefit. See. 0:47:10.520 --> 0:47:15.280 I think the conventional wisdom going into this immigration negotiation 0:47:15.360 --> 0:47:19.680 would have been something like the following. Trump needs the 0:47:19.719 --> 0:47:21.920 support of his base going into it. He wants to 0:47:21.960 --> 0:47:25.200 get the best deal he can, and the best deal 0:47:25.280 --> 0:47:28.439 means the one that secures the border and and does 0:47:28.480 --> 0:47:32.160 the most for interior enforcement and for workplace enforcement with 0:47:32.200 --> 0:47:36.200 the immigration system. And so there's no reason for him 0:47:36.200 --> 0:47:39.000 to make an initial offer that would include any kind 0:47:39.000 --> 0:47:41.000 of amnesty because he wants to see what we'll see 0:47:41.000 --> 0:47:43.040 what kind of deal he can get first. Instead, Trump 0:47:43.080 --> 0:47:45.520 just goes, all right, let's just let's just show our 0:47:45.520 --> 0:47:48.160 cards right away. This is what I'm willing to do. 0:47:48.280 --> 0:47:51.879 What are you willing to do? And it has made 0:47:51.920 --> 0:47:53.319 it to the Democrats don't really have a lot of 0:47:53.360 --> 0:47:55.840 room to run. What are they gonna say, No, it 0:47:55.880 --> 0:47:59.000 has to be an amnesty for everyone, or no, we 0:47:59.040 --> 0:48:01.319 won't take it. We won't take an amnesty for one 0:48:01.320 --> 0:48:06.359 point eight million unless it doesn't come with a wall 0:48:06.400 --> 0:48:08.680 on any of these other border security provisions that Trump 0:48:08.719 --> 0:48:11.680 has insisting on. I think that's tough. I think that's 0:48:11.680 --> 0:48:15.040 a really tough sell for them if they forced a shutdown. 0:48:15.080 --> 0:48:16.600 I think that the government's was to run in the 0:48:16.600 --> 0:48:21.080 money February eighth, maybe something like that, and something like that, John, 0:48:21.120 --> 0:48:23.040 if I'm wrong with me now, I think it's something 0:48:23.120 --> 0:48:26.359 like early February. The governments could rite out of money 0:48:26.560 --> 0:48:31.799 and Democrats got shellacked in the last shutdown, right, They 0:48:32.080 --> 0:48:35.759 got wasted and they had to turn that around. It 0:48:35.760 --> 0:48:38.000 wasn't a shutdown was it was actually a weekend, which 0:48:38.040 --> 0:48:39.960 I know people say the government shutdown every weekend on 0:48:40.000 --> 0:48:42.920 holidays anyway, But it wasn't even really a shutdown. I mean, 0:48:42.920 --> 0:48:45.279 the government was by the time we were telling the 0:48:45.320 --> 0:48:47.520 stories on air, I was like, whoops, that's over with. 0:48:48.680 --> 0:48:50.840 Democrats had to pull out of that. They had to 0:48:51.280 --> 0:48:54.799 back off because they knew that public opinion wasn't with them. 0:48:54.840 --> 0:49:01.200 You're gonna stop providing services to citizens taxpayers because of 0:49:01.280 --> 0:49:05.279 a population of illegals. Really, that's a tough one for 0:49:05.280 --> 0:49:08.279 the mid terms. Uh. They really just want to keep 0:49:08.320 --> 0:49:11.879 the issue alive as long as they can, I think, 0:49:12.320 --> 0:49:15.080 because it means that they'll just run with the storyline 0:49:15.239 --> 0:49:21.160 of a racist, heartless, unfeeling GOP. But if Trump makes 0:49:21.160 --> 0:49:23.400 them an offer that allows a couple of million to 0:49:23.520 --> 0:49:27.920 get amnesty and they turned that down, who are the unfeeling, 0:49:28.160 --> 0:49:32.040 un serious legislators? You know which party is just playing 0:49:32.040 --> 0:49:34.080 games with this? I think it becomes quite clear. So 0:49:35.040 --> 0:49:38.680 while I was concerned at first about the direction Trump 0:49:38.719 --> 0:49:43.000 was going in on immigration specifically, now I can see 0:49:43.040 --> 0:49:45.520 some of the wisdom in this. I still would have 0:49:45.560 --> 0:49:49.080 a problem with amnesty for almost two million people, because 0:49:49.120 --> 0:49:52.320 it's never the number is never the number. And everyone 0:49:52.360 --> 0:49:55.720 I know who is really gone deep on this issue 0:49:56.080 --> 0:50:00.800 is aware of this and agrees with me. But Trump 0:50:00.840 --> 0:50:02.440 may not have to do any there might have to 0:50:02.480 --> 0:50:05.200 be any amnesty, and in the meantime, any government shutdown 0:50:05.200 --> 0:50:08.840 that happens because of it would look entirely hollow. It 0:50:08.840 --> 0:50:12.200 would just be the most obvious grandstanding you could possibly 0:50:12.200 --> 0:50:16.400 see from folks like Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer and whomever, 0:50:17.280 --> 0:50:19.839 because they'll they'll walked away from If you think about 0:50:19.880 --> 0:50:22.440 how you sell that one. They walked away from amnesty 0:50:22.440 --> 0:50:24.279 for two million people, and now they can pretend they 0:50:24.320 --> 0:50:27.160 care so much about this two million people. If they 0:50:27.160 --> 0:50:30.440 walk away from amnesty for the for Dhaka as proposed 0:50:30.440 --> 0:50:34.839 by Trump at this opening of negotiations, because they don't 0:50:34.840 --> 0:50:37.680 want a wall, then I think it's also just clear 0:50:37.760 --> 0:50:40.200 to anyone who is going to be even a little 0:50:40.239 --> 0:50:43.799 bit honest, Democrats are just pro illegal immigration. They're not 0:50:43.840 --> 0:50:47.440 trying to deal with legal immigration. They actually want more 0:50:47.480 --> 0:50:51.239 illegal immigration, which I think is already true, but it 0:50:51.280 --> 0:50:54.360 will be more apparent, it will be more demonstrable. We 0:50:54.400 --> 0:50:58.719 can show people that that's in fact the case. So 0:50:59.080 --> 0:51:02.800 we will see how this how this dispute is resolved 0:51:02.920 --> 0:51:05.440 or not over what to do about Dhaka, and and 0:51:05.480 --> 0:51:10.000 how we will go go forward on the immigration because 0:51:10.160 --> 0:51:12.440 this has got to be a centerpiece for Trump right now. 0:51:12.480 --> 0:51:16.640 I mean, if he loses the House, you know all 0:51:16.680 --> 0:51:18.880 this talk we have right now about we're gonna be 0:51:18.960 --> 0:51:21.080 so frustrated. Oh yeah, we needed sixty votes in the 0:51:21.080 --> 0:51:24.960 Senate to basically get anything done. This is This is 0:51:25.000 --> 0:51:27.560 the Senate's constructs that they can all just worry about 0:51:27.960 --> 0:51:30.560 fundraising and getting reelected and not have to take any 0:51:30.560 --> 0:51:33.759 tough votes. They like the sixty threshold, I think, make 0:51:33.800 --> 0:51:36.759 no mistake about it. In a house passes stuff all 0:51:36.760 --> 0:51:38.239 the time, we're like, oh, that would be great. Oh 0:51:38.239 --> 0:51:39.840 it will never get through the Senate. Why we have 0:51:39.840 --> 0:51:43.320 a majority, Oh, because we need Democrat votes for that too. 0:51:43.600 --> 0:51:45.400 What's the point of a majority if you need Democrat 0:51:45.480 --> 0:51:50.080 votes to do anything. I'm just throwing lots of stuff 0:51:50.080 --> 0:51:52.400 out there today. But yeah, I think you should pardon 0:51:52.480 --> 0:51:54.320 General Flynn Trump, by the way, and I think that 0:51:54.360 --> 0:51:57.600 Mitch McConnell should just say, you know what, unless it's 0:51:57.640 --> 0:52:00.560 constitutionally prescribed otherwise. And there are some things that are 0:52:00.560 --> 0:52:03.360 constitutionally mandated, you know, removal from office for a president, 0:52:03.400 --> 0:52:08.000 for example, two thirds. But this whole you've gotta be 0:52:08.040 --> 0:52:10.560 able to get sixty two. Beat a filibuster. No, no 0:52:10.719 --> 0:52:13.719 more of this. This is gard this is garbage, This 0:52:13.880 --> 0:52:18.600 is self imposed ineptitude, and we can't allow this to 0:52:18.600 --> 0:52:20.880 continue on the way that it is. I'm telling you, 0:52:20.920 --> 0:52:22.560 if we lose the House and goes in the mid terms, 0:52:22.600 --> 0:52:24.480 We're all be sitting around like, oh, you know what 0:52:24.760 --> 0:52:27.879 Trump could have done, if only, if only, He's got 0:52:27.880 --> 0:52:29.600 to do it now. That's why immigration has to be 0:52:29.640 --> 0:52:33.880 a place where he does it now. Time is not 0:52:34.120 --> 0:52:38.920 on the side of those who wish to uh secure 0:52:38.960 --> 0:52:42.840 the border and get something worthwhile from Trump's majority in 0:52:42.880 --> 0:52:57.400 the House and the Senate. Well, I was right, but 0:52:57.440 --> 0:53:00.359 I wasn't right about all of it, or I didn't 0:53:00.400 --> 0:53:03.800 get all of it. When I said that mid terms, 0:53:05.600 --> 0:53:08.640 I told you correctly that everyone going back to Civil 0:53:08.680 --> 0:53:13.120 War basically loses with with three exceptions. And yes, it 0:53:13.280 --> 0:53:15.640 is true that George Bush in his first mid term 0:53:15.760 --> 0:53:20.760 picked up seats. It is also true that Nixon in wait, 0:53:20.800 --> 0:53:22.799 did I know, did I get the Nixon went wrong? Oh, 0:53:22.840 --> 0:53:25.840 he picked up two Senate seats. Okay, so it depends 0:53:25.880 --> 0:53:27.560 on whether we're looking at the House or the Senate. 0:53:27.560 --> 0:53:31.239 But Nixon picked up two Senate seats, and but he 0:53:31.320 --> 0:53:33.359 lost House seats. But he picked up the House. I mean, 0:53:33.400 --> 0:53:39.200 he picked up the Senate Roosevelt picked up in thirty four. 0:53:40.080 --> 0:53:44.520 And then also I see here Clinton picked up in 0:53:44.600 --> 0:53:48.440 his first he picked up five five House seats in 0:53:48.600 --> 0:53:51.600 his first midterm election. So or no, was that a 0:53:51.640 --> 0:53:55.799 second midten sorry, his second midterm election? Yeah, there you go. 0:53:56.680 --> 0:53:58.160 So I was close. So I mean the ones I 0:53:58.200 --> 0:53:59.719 said were correct, but I left one or two out. 0:53:59.719 --> 0:54:02.319 But I mean, FDR, does that really count? I guess 0:54:02.360 --> 0:54:08.160 it counts. Kenny in Saugus Sagas. How do we say 0:54:08.160 --> 0:54:12.040 that in Boston? You would say it's Sagas. It's just 0:54:12.120 --> 0:54:14.919 north of Boston, so I usually say it's just north 0:54:14.960 --> 0:54:18.840 to Boston over the eight miles north. How is the 0:54:18.920 --> 0:54:26.480 chowder in Saugust It's very chowy. Yeah, it's very good. Yeah. 0:54:26.640 --> 0:54:28.880 So I want to I'm here to scour your wisdom, 0:54:28.920 --> 0:54:31.399 to pick your brain. I want to know one thing. 0:54:32.000 --> 0:54:35.719 They're discrediting this memo. Obviously, this is the campaign that's 0:54:35.719 --> 0:54:41.240 been lodged here. Um. I heard something about the FBI 0:54:41.360 --> 0:54:45.960 had broken a meeting to discuss the memo and at 0:54:45.960 --> 0:54:49.439 the White House and to uh decide what they wanted 0:54:49.480 --> 0:54:51.239 to leave in, what they could release and they will 0:54:51.280 --> 0:54:55.480 make an alterations. And at the same time, simultaneously Adam 0:54:55.560 --> 0:55:00.400 Schiff then Maline Noonez I'm saying he's making changes to it. 0:55:01.120 --> 0:55:04.040 And so I'm thinking that that's connected, that there's there's 0:55:04.040 --> 0:55:06.560 probably they probably did that just to support that. And 0:55:06.560 --> 0:55:09.560 then there's another thing Washington Post. I read a story 0:55:09.680 --> 0:55:12.560 online that says, how come Trump is in a hurry 0:55:12.680 --> 0:55:16.320 to release this memo? Isn't this crazy? Couldn't he released 0:55:16.320 --> 0:55:20.319 it months ago? Look? There, there's Okay, So you're bringing 0:55:20.360 --> 0:55:21.680 up a lot of good points, and so let me 0:55:21.680 --> 0:55:24.800 make sure that I addressed them each in turn. About 0:55:24.880 --> 0:55:27.600 the edits, I saw that last night. I think Adam Schiff, 0:55:27.680 --> 0:55:32.399 my favorite used sham wile salesman. I think he uh 0:55:32.640 --> 0:55:35.120 he tweeted something about how their edits made, and now 0:55:35.120 --> 0:55:38.640 we find out the edits were minor and structural. It 0:55:38.680 --> 0:55:42.000 also doesn't really matter, right because they're contesting parts of 0:55:42.000 --> 0:55:44.480 the memo anyway, So to say that some of it 0:55:44.560 --> 0:55:48.600 was edited, what does that even? Who? Who even really 0:55:48.640 --> 0:55:51.720 care at that point because they're gonna be contesting everything 0:55:51.719 --> 0:55:54.680 that it says, and they're gonna declassify it's going to 0:55:54.760 --> 0:55:57.879 be public information. So it just struck me as very 0:55:57.880 --> 0:56:01.719 petty and very desperate. And I think that's where much 0:56:01.760 --> 0:56:04.600 of the resistance to releasing the memo has gone. They've 0:56:04.600 --> 0:56:08.080 become kind of petty and desperate. So no, well, what 0:56:08.120 --> 0:56:10.239 do we really Let's be realistic, right, Kenny, What do 0:56:10.280 --> 0:56:13.160 we think could possibly have been changed in there that 0:56:13.200 --> 0:56:16.080 would be worth risking the veracity of the rest of 0:56:16.080 --> 0:56:18.120 the memo that they insert at the last moment. It 0:56:18.160 --> 0:56:20.360 just doesn't make sense, right. One of the reasons you 0:56:20.400 --> 0:56:23.799 know that certain conspiracies aren't real is because it's not 0:56:23.880 --> 0:56:26.600 even good for the conspirator. Doesn't make any sense. So 0:56:26.880 --> 0:56:28.120 you and then you brought up a few other things. 0:56:28.160 --> 0:56:31.120 What else did you want me to hit on? Uh? 0:56:31.200 --> 0:56:34.160 That was the Well, it was something with the FBI 0:56:34.640 --> 0:56:38.560 meeting with them off and uh. Oh. Also they said 0:56:38.600 --> 0:56:40.880 that Trump, they said that Trump was in a hurry 0:56:40.920 --> 0:56:44.360 to release this memo. But from what I'm understanding is 0:56:44.400 --> 0:56:49.080 he could have actually uh ordered its release yea months ago. Yeah, 0:56:49.120 --> 0:56:51.239 he like he's the president. He could have said he 0:56:51.280 --> 0:56:54.080 could have ordered the executive branch to de classifies. Like, 0:56:54.120 --> 0:56:55.759 no one's gonna tell the commander in chief. You can't 0:56:55.760 --> 0:56:58.560 tell the American people about whatever that It doesn't work 0:56:58.600 --> 0:57:00.960 that way, right. The commander in chief can really and 0:57:01.000 --> 0:57:03.279 people would argue with me on this, but I've got 0:57:03.280 --> 0:57:05.400 plenty of president to back it up. The president can 0:57:05.400 --> 0:57:08.200 do what's called real time which is not a legal definition, 0:57:08.239 --> 0:57:11.480 but real time declassification, which is just the president can 0:57:11.480 --> 0:57:14.720 tell the American people about whatever he wants. Functionally speaking, 0:57:14.920 --> 0:57:17.280 that is how it works, and no one ever contests 0:57:17.320 --> 0:57:21.000 that is not how it works. So the president can, Yeah, 0:57:21.040 --> 0:57:23.800 he can confer with other people and try to respect 0:57:23.840 --> 0:57:26.520 the processes that are in place for classified but he 0:57:26.520 --> 0:57:28.440 can be classified whatever he wants. And I would just 0:57:28.480 --> 0:57:30.880 note Kenny that people now are complaining. I'm seeing some 0:57:30.920 --> 0:57:35.520 of the Democrat apparatus out there, journalists and talking heads 0:57:35.560 --> 0:57:38.440 and lawyer types that are saying, well, why do you 0:57:38.480 --> 0:57:40.640 go through the why do you go through the House process? 0:57:40.680 --> 0:57:42.560 If he just could do it himself, as though that's 0:57:42.600 --> 0:57:44.720 now a bad thing, and we all know if Trump 0:57:44.720 --> 0:57:47.200 had just declassified it, they'd say that he's meddling and 0:57:47.240 --> 0:57:50.000 he's causing problems, and you know he's so anyway, he 0:57:50.040 --> 0:57:52.200 can't win either way, Kenny, thanks to the call, the 0:57:52.240 --> 0:57:54.240 good question, my friend. Great to talk to you up 0:57:54.280 --> 0:57:57.439 in Ugas. I like it, I learned, I learned lots 0:57:57.440 --> 0:57:59.920 of new towns on this show. My America g are. 0:58:00.000 --> 0:58:13.320 If he's getting better in the Freedom Hunt, he's back 0:58:13.360 --> 0:58:15.720 with you now, because when it comes to the fight 0:58:15.800 --> 0:58:20.320 for truth, the fuck never stops. There's a new poll 0:58:20.400 --> 0:58:23.640 from Monbouth where the president's approval rating has ticked up 0:58:23.640 --> 0:58:27.400 to This is out of the thirties where President Trump 0:58:27.400 --> 0:58:30.040 has wallowed, one might say, for most of the time 0:58:30.080 --> 0:58:33.160 since is inauguration a b y? Why do we think? 0:58:33.280 --> 0:58:35.919 I mean, they did pass tax reformed by a Christmas deadline, Okay, 0:58:35.960 --> 0:58:37.959 after a year of failing to repeal in a place 0:58:37.960 --> 0:58:40.080 Obamacare and fighting with each other. But I know that 0:58:40.120 --> 0:58:41.920 the tax reform plan, at least in many polls, he 0:58:42.000 --> 0:58:44.880 is viewed by a majority of Americans negatively. The polling 0:58:44.920 --> 0:58:49.160 on tax reform was really bad in December. It's actually rising, 0:58:49.320 --> 0:58:53.200 becoming more popular, and either people are responding to their 0:58:53.240 --> 0:58:55.960 own personal data or they're responding to these stories of 0:58:56.080 --> 0:58:58.960 corporations feeling a boost and sharing it with their workers, 0:58:59.040 --> 0:59:00.880 and that is a positive for him. It's it's a 0:59:00.960 --> 0:59:04.439 legislative success and the economics. All the polls are moving 0:59:04.440 --> 0:59:06.920 in Donald Trump's direction have been for the last one month. 0:59:07.000 --> 0:59:10.240 The president's favorable has moved up five since tax reform 0:59:10.320 --> 0:59:14.280 was enacted in December, and his unfavorable has dropped three 0:59:14.720 --> 0:59:17.000 that's an eight point improvement in one month. Now he's 0:59:17.000 --> 0:59:18.960 still upside down. He's got a long way to go. 0:59:19.000 --> 0:59:21.520 But make no mistake, the president's numbers are on the move. 0:59:22.160 --> 0:59:24.840 Equally important the right track wrong track, and these are 0:59:24.840 --> 0:59:27.800 the real clear politics average. The right track, wrong track 0:59:27.880 --> 0:59:31.560 has improved thirteen points in selection day. On election Day 0:59:31.560 --> 0:59:35.080 two thousand sixteen, the Americans felt overwhelmingly this nation's on 0:59:35.120 --> 0:59:37.360 the wrong track, and there's been a thirteen point improvement 0:59:37.400 --> 0:59:41.240 since Trump took over. You know what, another shorter way 0:59:41.280 --> 0:59:45.160 of talking about these polls would be just this is 0:59:45.200 --> 0:59:48.600 all about results. Wasn't it funny? That was a CNN 0:59:48.840 --> 0:59:51.120 clip initially that we played there and then we followed 0:59:51.240 --> 0:59:55.040 up with ari A. R. Fleischer over at Fox. But 0:59:55.200 --> 0:59:58.640 in that CNN exchange, you had a B. Stoddard, she 0:59:58.760 --> 1:00:00.960 used to be with the Hill where it whish who she? Yeah? 1:00:01.000 --> 1:00:03.080 I forget she with the Hill still now? I don't 1:00:03.120 --> 1:00:06.200 wish She's moved on somewhere else, I think. But she's 1:00:06.240 --> 1:00:09.120 talking to to Jim Shooto of CNN and they're going 1:00:09.160 --> 1:00:13.160 back and fourth over like whoa. Okay. So so the 1:00:13.160 --> 1:00:17.040 there are two very interesting takeaways from that. One is 1:00:17.080 --> 1:00:20.560 that people looked at tax reform negatively, and I know 1:00:20.640 --> 1:00:23.080 at CNN that's like a cause of celebration, right, Oh 1:00:23.120 --> 1:00:29.480 my gosh, it's great hit tax reform. But let's understand 1:00:29.520 --> 1:00:33.600 what that means. It just means that the propaganda apparatus 1:00:33.600 --> 1:00:37.160 of the media is still so powerful that it is 1:00:37.200 --> 1:00:43.400 able to convince a majority of the American people that 1:00:44.520 --> 1:00:49.160 the government letting some Americans keep some percentage more of 1:00:49.200 --> 1:00:52.160 the money that they are earning is a bad thing. 1:00:53.560 --> 1:00:57.240 That's amazing, isn't it. How how is that possible? You 1:00:57.320 --> 1:00:59.320 might wonder to yourself, how would it be possible that 1:01:00.040 --> 1:01:01.960 they would be able to convince some of that? And 1:01:02.960 --> 1:01:06.480 they're clearly annoyed at that is fading, that that concept 1:01:06.560 --> 1:01:10.240 of more money in the pockets of private citizens is 1:01:10.320 --> 1:01:13.880 bad somehow. But then also the well why is it 1:01:14.120 --> 1:01:17.840 rising since tax reform was enacted? Well, gee, I've got 1:01:17.880 --> 1:01:21.520 some ideas. Let's think about this, folks. Well, we got 1:01:21.560 --> 1:01:24.440 a couple of political analysts on there before. Why would 1:01:24.640 --> 1:01:31.840 tax reform after it happens become more popular? Do do do? 1:01:31.840 --> 1:01:34.840 Do? Do Do? Do? Right? I feel like I probably couldn't 1:01:34.840 --> 1:01:36.640 actually play in the Jeopardy theme. It would be some 1:01:36.720 --> 1:01:38.920 kind of a rights thing. But I just sang it 1:01:38.960 --> 1:01:41.760 for you because I that's how much I care now. 1:01:41.840 --> 1:01:44.400 But the reason is quite obviously that it's gonna happen, 1:01:44.440 --> 1:01:46.480 and now people are seeing it, and I've got I 1:01:46.600 --> 1:01:49.960 have friends, I have friends, I know people personally who 1:01:50.000 --> 1:01:51.760 were saying, all of a sudden, I've got a little 1:01:51.760 --> 1:01:56.640 more money in my in my bank account. Each paycheck 1:01:56.760 --> 1:02:00.880 is a little bit bigger, and it helps. It helps. 1:02:00.880 --> 1:02:05.200 It also creates a sense that we are moving forward 1:02:05.280 --> 1:02:07.320 here right. It creates a sense that things can get 1:02:07.360 --> 1:02:10.600 even better. And you know, I've seen now economists are 1:02:10.760 --> 1:02:17.120 now economists make weather men look infallible. But nonetheless, I've 1:02:17.120 --> 1:02:21.960 seen some predictions, some prognostications for the future where economists 1:02:22.000 --> 1:02:24.240 are saying that they think unemployment could be at three 1:02:24.320 --> 1:02:29.080 point five percent next year. So whether that happens or not, 1:02:29.160 --> 1:02:31.080 we will have to see. But that's certainly really low. 1:02:31.920 --> 1:02:34.000 But this is the big problem that Democrats are gonna have. 1:02:34.040 --> 1:02:38.880 They're they're not used to having to contend with an 1:02:38.920 --> 1:02:45.280 objective reality of a Republican president who is making real 1:02:45.360 --> 1:02:49.000 gains in the economy for the very people that he's 1:02:49.040 --> 1:02:52.280 been saying he would do it for right that this 1:02:52.400 --> 1:02:56.320 is going to be a tough hill for them to 1:02:56.680 --> 1:03:00.000 overcome when you look at the benefits of the Trump 1:03:00.000 --> 1:03:02.560 administration and how it's rolling out for people right now, 1:03:02.680 --> 1:03:04.800 I think that the Democrats aren't going to have much 1:03:04.840 --> 1:03:06.920 of a line. And that's when you get into just well, 1:03:07.000 --> 1:03:10.320 they they got to come up with something they hate Trump, right, 1:03:10.400 --> 1:03:13.440 and so you know, maybe they can take a page 1:03:13.520 --> 1:03:17.720 from the Maxi and Waters playbook here and just come 1:03:17.800 --> 1:03:24.360 up with some other stuff about Russia. They absolutely hated 1:03:25.000 --> 1:03:42.280 demotics television, absolutely interfering with SPA. What now we're talking 1:03:42.280 --> 1:03:45.160 about r T those who are one and that that's 1:03:45.400 --> 1:03:48.520 Maxi Waters, so sitting member of Congress. There's one about 1:03:48.600 --> 1:03:52.200 urt uh. That's the Russia Today channel that's been around 1:03:52.240 --> 1:03:56.880 for over ten years and is a an open Kremlin front, 1:03:57.080 --> 1:03:59.720 right it is. It is Kremlin propaganda. People who have 1:03:59.760 --> 1:04:01.480 worked there have come out and talked about it. It 1:04:01.600 --> 1:04:04.640 is funded as a Kremlin front. There is really no 1:04:04.880 --> 1:04:09.000 question about this. And yet you'll still have people with 1:04:09.400 --> 1:04:14.440 so much uh self righteousness, say, oh my gosh, Russia 1:04:14.560 --> 1:04:18.640 might meddle in future elections unless we do more. And 1:04:18.680 --> 1:04:20.760 I said, well, what meddaling are we're really talking about. 1:04:22.040 --> 1:04:27.200 There'll be these Facebook sock puppets that spread mean rumors 1:04:27.200 --> 1:04:32.760 about Hillary if it is that easy, If if creating 1:04:32.840 --> 1:04:37.960 some fake accounts overseas determines a presidential election the United States, 1:04:38.280 --> 1:04:41.480 we got even bigger problems in Russia. Everybody, I gotta 1:04:41.520 --> 1:04:45.240 wonder what's going on with folks. But when you look 1:04:45.280 --> 1:04:49.840 at the amount of information a noise out there, especially 1:04:49.840 --> 1:04:53.600 in an election year, the notion that Russia would be 1:04:53.680 --> 1:04:56.160 able to cut through all that and be the decider, 1:04:56.240 --> 1:04:59.560 be the difference maker, it's just preposterous on its face, 1:05:00.360 --> 1:05:03.000 But that's what they're I bring up Russia and Maxie 1:05:03.000 --> 1:05:08.440 Waters what Maximum Water here? Because um, she's indicative of 1:05:08.440 --> 1:05:11.760 where this is all going. It's gonna be Russia. They're 1:05:11.760 --> 1:05:15.200 gonna they're gonna run an election campaign, meaning the Democrats, 1:05:15.200 --> 1:05:17.840 the d n C. They're gonna run on the president 1:05:17.880 --> 1:05:22.640 United States is a UH is a cheater who worked 1:05:22.640 --> 1:05:25.320 with the Russians, betrayed his country. And that's why you 1:05:25.320 --> 1:05:27.360 should vote for Democrats because what else do they have? 1:05:28.200 --> 1:05:30.160 They don't want to. They're not gonna run on Obamacare 1:05:30.200 --> 1:05:33.560 because anybody who actually has Obamacare will just tell you 1:05:33.600 --> 1:05:35.520 horror stories about how bad it is. For the most part, 1:05:35.520 --> 1:05:37.600 that's been my experience. Again, I know people who have 1:05:37.920 --> 1:05:41.400 had to get plans off of the exchanges, and they 1:05:41.400 --> 1:05:45.840 are generally very displeased with the plans that they have 1:05:45.960 --> 1:05:49.160 gotten off the exchanges. Yeah. I mean, it's great to 1:05:49.200 --> 1:05:51.440 have healthcare when you have an eight thousand dollar or 1:05:51.520 --> 1:05:54.160 ten thousand dollars deductible and even when you hit the deductible, 1:05:54.160 --> 1:05:56.439 you're only seeing doctors that you really don't want to see. 1:05:57.400 --> 1:05:59.320 So they have nothing to run on. Really, they're gonna 1:05:59.400 --> 1:06:02.000 run on Trump as a racist who won't and who 1:06:02.000 --> 1:06:06.400 won't amnesty twelve million people and Russia. I don't think 1:06:06.400 --> 1:06:09.520 that's gonna be good enough. The only hope as I 1:06:09.640 --> 1:06:15.000 see it, the only hope that there is for the 1:06:15.040 --> 1:06:19.200 Democrats take this for what it's worth, is if there's 1:06:19.240 --> 1:06:22.960 a massive turn in the economy. Um, I think that's 1:06:22.960 --> 1:06:24.480 the only way that they look. Maybe they'll win one 1:06:24.560 --> 1:06:26.760 or two seats on balance, but you know, all these 1:06:26.800 --> 1:06:29.640 elections are comes down to the candidate and the specifics 1:06:29.680 --> 1:06:32.760 of the race, but overall our national level, if the 1:06:32.800 --> 1:06:34.560 economy is as strong as it is right now, I 1:06:34.600 --> 1:06:36.600 just don't see how they can turn this thing around. 1:06:36.600 --> 1:06:40.240 I really don't. And I still know people who despite 1:06:40.280 --> 1:06:42.479 some there's been some rockiness in the markets this week, 1:06:43.000 --> 1:06:44.640 I still know people who are saying this is gonna 1:06:44.640 --> 1:06:48.200 get even better. It's gonna be even better this year. 1:06:48.400 --> 1:06:50.600 I like to be optimistic. I'm gonna continue to be 1:06:50.640 --> 1:06:54.240 optimistic about the economy until until it's clearly wrong. How 1:06:54.240 --> 1:06:57.680 about that? That'll be my plan. Team lines are open 1:06:57.680 --> 1:06:59.600 if you want to chat, and by all means eight 1:06:59.640 --> 1:07:03.960 four four n eight to five eight four four buck. 1:07:04.080 --> 1:07:06.320 Also don't forget buck sexen dot com and you can 1:07:06.560 --> 1:07:10.120 check out gear from the team Team Bucky gear on 1:07:10.120 --> 1:07:13.880 Buck sexing dot com. And if you have not listened 1:07:13.960 --> 1:07:15.800 yet to the Fall of Constants and Nopal parts two, 1:07:15.880 --> 1:07:19.440 I'm telling you it is chearing up the history podcast charts. 1:07:20.240 --> 1:07:24.360 It's going all the way to the top baby history podcasts. 1:07:25.000 --> 1:07:29.080 It's definitely beating out that history of the suffragette movement 1:07:29.160 --> 1:07:33.400 in thirty parts that I'm sure is there. So check 1:07:33.440 --> 1:07:37.080 that out. Check out the history podcast. Um and uh, 1:07:37.200 --> 1:07:40.880 that's that's what I got on that I realized something. 1:07:40.920 --> 1:07:43.360 I don't know what to do about this exactly. I 1:07:43.520 --> 1:07:45.640 for some reason just wanted to get to Malta because 1:07:45.640 --> 1:07:48.080 I really like it as a storyline. But I now 1:07:48.120 --> 1:07:52.360 I'm thinking, maybe you know, I skipped over the seat 1:07:52.360 --> 1:07:55.280 of the first Siege of Vienna, But I feel like 1:07:55.320 --> 1:07:57.640 now it's already been done, right, So I can't go 1:07:57.720 --> 1:07:59.520 back to I can't go back to the first Siege 1:07:59.520 --> 1:08:02.400 of Vienna. I had to do multi first. So some 1:08:02.440 --> 1:08:03.680 of you are like, what are you talking about, buck, 1:08:03.720 --> 1:08:06.840 don't worry about it. All makes sense, I think, hopefully. Um, 1:08:06.880 --> 1:08:09.720 and when we come back, Oh wow, I've got a 1:08:09.760 --> 1:08:12.600 little bit of news about vote. Remember I mentioned before 1:08:12.640 --> 1:08:14.520 something about voting and whether you can vote if you're 1:08:14.520 --> 1:08:17.559 a felon. That just there's a breaking news story on that. 1:08:17.600 --> 1:08:21.200 Maybe we'll discuss that and some other wonderful stuff. Stay 1:08:21.200 --> 1:08:32.840 with me so a team. I don't have a whole 1:08:32.880 --> 1:08:34.760 lot on this, but I just wanted to note that 1:08:34.960 --> 1:08:37.880 I mentioned before for felons, because we're talking about whether 1:08:38.080 --> 1:08:41.000 General Flynn should be or Mike Flynn should be pardoned. 1:08:41.680 --> 1:08:44.200 And this just came in a few minutes ago. This 1:08:44.280 --> 1:08:48.840 is Miami Herald. A federal judge ruled that Florida's lifetime 1:08:48.920 --> 1:08:53.760 ban on restoring voting rights for felons violates the US Constitution. 1:08:54.640 --> 1:08:59.280 US District Judge Mark Walker said Florida's vote restoration process 1:09:00.040 --> 1:09:02.960 and fairly relies on the personal support of Governor Rick 1:09:03.000 --> 1:09:07.519 Scott for citizens to regain this fundamental right. Walker ruled 1:09:07.520 --> 1:09:10.439 in a case brought by the Fair Elections Legal Network 1:09:10.439 --> 1:09:14.080 at Washington, d C. Group that challenge the constitutionality of 1:09:14.120 --> 1:09:18.960 the Florida system. All Right, So if this Walker's decision 1:09:19.000 --> 1:09:21.599 came nine days after the state approved a ballot measure that, 1:09:21.680 --> 1:09:25.560 if passed in November, would restore the voting rights of 1:09:25.600 --> 1:09:28.639 about one point two million felons, I would just note 1:09:28.760 --> 1:09:33.720 everyone that we are all quite aware that Democrats are 1:09:33.760 --> 1:09:41.120 certainly aware that the overwhelming number of felon voters they 1:09:41.160 --> 1:09:45.000 expect will vote Democrat. Right, this is why Democrats are 1:09:45.040 --> 1:09:49.839 so in favor of restoring voting rights for convicted felons. 1:09:49.920 --> 1:09:52.720 That didn't mcculloff also do this in Virginia. Wasn't that 1:09:52.720 --> 1:09:56.439 a big fight with tera mcculiffe um. I think I 1:09:56.479 --> 1:09:58.599 think it was so. Anyway, that's that's an update from 1:09:58.600 --> 1:10:00.439 whether you can vote as a felon or not. And 1:10:00.600 --> 1:10:03.479 I know you can't own a you can't legally own 1:10:03.479 --> 1:10:06.160 a firearm, although for violent felons they tend not to 1:10:06.200 --> 1:10:08.960 be like, oh gosh, I already served that ten years 1:10:08.960 --> 1:10:11.479 for armed robbery. I better not getting a legal gun 1:10:11.560 --> 1:10:14.160 for my next one. Right that tends not to slow 1:10:14.240 --> 1:10:17.600 them down necessarily. Um. But that's the story that I 1:10:17.640 --> 1:10:19.439 had for you on or that's the only updated here 1:10:19.479 --> 1:10:25.200 for you on voting and felons and felons rights. So 1:10:25.320 --> 1:10:27.360 I didn't I didn't talk about it originally because I 1:10:27.400 --> 1:10:31.960 wasn't really sure what are what are important analytic takeaway 1:10:32.000 --> 1:10:35.040 could be or but but you know what, this guy 1:10:35.080 --> 1:10:36.760 is such an idiot that I feel like we should 1:10:36.840 --> 1:10:39.240 just I don't want to skip over this entirely because 1:10:39.280 --> 1:10:42.439 it's it's indicative of a of a mindset that's much 1:10:42.439 --> 1:10:46.800 more widespread on the left than certainly the mainstream Democrats 1:10:46.800 --> 1:10:50.320 want admitute This guy, Gregory Salcido, he is a teacher 1:10:50.360 --> 1:10:53.320 out in California, and he's on video and this is 1:10:53.360 --> 1:10:57.000 what this is what he had to say about the military. 1:10:58.160 --> 1:11:00.639 Think about the people who you know, you're freaking stupid, 1:11:00.680 --> 1:11:03.360 Uncle Louis or whatever. They're done. They're not like high 1:11:03.439 --> 1:11:06.960 level thinkers are not academic people that intellectual people. They're 1:11:06.960 --> 1:11:09.599 the freaking the lowest stuff I loan, they're not talented people. 1:11:10.200 --> 1:11:12.679 That's how when president talks says we have the best military, 1:11:12.720 --> 1:11:13.960 and with presidents where I'll say that the way it 1:11:13.960 --> 1:11:17.040 was Obama ways anybody, I was like, no, the data 1:11:17.160 --> 1:11:19.639 is in, we don't have a good military. We it's 1:11:19.680 --> 1:11:22.759 a lot that our military should do. Joined the military. 1:11:22.920 --> 1:11:25.200 It's because you have no other options, because you didn't 1:11:25.200 --> 1:11:27.320 take care of business, academic, you cause your parents didn't 1:11:27.320 --> 1:11:29.559 love you enough to push you, and then you didn't 1:11:29.600 --> 1:11:32.240 love yourself enough. Don't you ever freaking bring them to 1:11:32.280 --> 1:11:35.400 your military. To this guy, I don't understand what we 1:11:35.479 --> 1:11:37.200 let to freaking military guys come over here and recut 1:11:37.240 --> 1:11:39.120 you at school. We don't have pimps come into school. 1:11:41.080 --> 1:11:44.680 It would be hard to think of a more stupid, incorrect, 1:11:44.880 --> 1:11:48.160 and offensive rant that one could come up with. It mean, 1:11:48.160 --> 1:11:51.360 if you were writing the role in a movie of 1:11:52.560 --> 1:11:56.960 moron who who defames the military, I'm not sure you 1:11:57.120 --> 1:11:59.559 you could manage to be quite as offensive as this guy. 1:11:59.640 --> 1:12:02.479 Or you have to try really hard, and you have 1:12:02.520 --> 1:12:06.679 to wonder, how could anyone be so ungrateful and dumb 1:12:06.960 --> 1:12:12.960 and and just disgraceful. I think General Kelly white House 1:12:13.000 --> 1:12:18.200 chief of Staff, nailed it pretty well well. I think 1:12:18.200 --> 1:12:20.160 the guy I ought to go to hell. Um, I 1:12:20.280 --> 1:12:24.160 just hope he enjoys the liberties in the in the 1:12:24.200 --> 1:12:31.080 lifestyle that that we have fought for. Yeah, I think 1:12:31.080 --> 1:12:32.760 a guy going to Hell is a pretty good That's 1:12:32.760 --> 1:12:35.559 certainly a good start. And you know, this is all 1:12:35.600 --> 1:12:37.479 stories saying, I don't know why people do this thing 1:12:37.520 --> 1:12:40.280 of they they start sending you know, you never send 1:12:40.280 --> 1:12:42.920 anyone death threats because now, first of all, you just 1:12:42.960 --> 1:12:45.200 never do that. But also now they're turning the guy 1:12:45.200 --> 1:12:47.920 into a victim in the backlash. And instead of there's 1:12:48.240 --> 1:12:50.880 this just being a teachable moment, now he gets to say, oh, 1:12:50.920 --> 1:12:53.080 you know, the right wing is coming after me, although 1:12:53.120 --> 1:12:56.120 the left wing is, or at least the mainstream Democrats 1:12:56.160 --> 1:12:58.519 are annoyed too. Because this goes to show that in 1:12:58.760 --> 1:13:03.600 this country, if you're anti military, you're times out of 1:13:03.600 --> 1:13:06.120 a hundred you're on the left right. Times out of 1:13:06.160 --> 1:13:09.160 a hundred, you're like a Democrat registered Bernie Sanders voter. 1:13:09.520 --> 1:13:12.160 Maybe you're about the Working Families Party or something, or 1:13:12.200 --> 1:13:14.559 you know, Communist Party USA, but you're on the left. 1:13:14.960 --> 1:13:18.120 If you're anti military, there's just no place for that 1:13:18.200 --> 1:13:19.960 at all on the right. I mean, as there shouldn't 1:13:19.960 --> 1:13:22.519 be for it anywhere. I also just think it. It 1:13:22.840 --> 1:13:28.840 made me well. It reminded me of how this guy 1:13:28.960 --> 1:13:32.000 is so wrong, he's so dumb. When I think of 1:13:32.040 --> 1:13:37.080 some of my friends growing up who were not only served, 1:13:37.080 --> 1:13:41.040 but served in in combat and some really some really 1:13:41.040 --> 1:13:44.920 tough stuff in Iraq and Afghanistan, and my parents, if 1:13:44.920 --> 1:13:46.840 they're listening to show, they certainly know who I'm thinking of. 1:13:46.880 --> 1:13:48.960 A couple of them were friends of mine for many, 1:13:48.960 --> 1:13:52.280 many years. There are two guys in particular, UM, both 1:13:52.280 --> 1:13:55.160 one and them both one of the Marine Corps. And 1:13:55.760 --> 1:13:59.800 not only were they yeah, I'm trying to think of 1:13:59.800 --> 1:14:03.000 the this way to describe them, the guys that everybody 1:14:03.240 --> 1:14:05.479 you know knew and liked and went to great schools, 1:14:05.800 --> 1:14:10.200 but also the two of them came from very well 1:14:10.240 --> 1:14:14.360 off backgrounds financially speaking, UM, and they both went into 1:14:14.479 --> 1:14:19.160 the Marine Corps and both went into combat U one enlisted, 1:14:19.200 --> 1:14:22.240 one as an officer. And they saw us. I mean, 1:14:22.280 --> 1:14:24.759 I've I've been out for it with with one of them. Actually, 1:14:24.760 --> 1:14:26.000 I've been out with both of them over drinks to 1:14:26.040 --> 1:14:28.439 talk about it. But one of them, particular, I mean, 1:14:28.479 --> 1:14:31.880 he was he was in uh, the Fallujah part of 1:14:31.880 --> 1:14:36.759 the world when things were particularly spicy over there, and 1:14:36.960 --> 1:14:39.599 he saw some really you know, he saw some really 1:14:39.640 --> 1:14:43.040 fierce combat. And I just so so, you know, I 1:14:43.120 --> 1:14:46.960 just have personal experience with friends of mine who served, 1:14:46.960 --> 1:14:49.120 who I knew growing up, and so that's why when 1:14:49.160 --> 1:14:51.400 he tells a story about, you know, no options, I'm like, actually, 1:14:51.640 --> 1:14:52.920 a lot of the people that I know who went 1:14:53.000 --> 1:14:56.080 to serve had nothing but options and had excelled in 1:14:56.200 --> 1:14:59.839 everything they had ever done, and could have done anything 1:14:59.840 --> 1:15:01.960 they wanted to do, even if they hadn't excelled at 1:15:02.000 --> 1:15:04.560 everything they'd ever done, but they wanted to serve the 1:15:04.640 --> 1:15:06.679 United States Marine Corps. They wanted to serve the United 1:15:06.720 --> 1:15:10.920 States military. You know that this guy is not this 1:15:10.920 --> 1:15:14.639 this idiot who was speaking about this is not uh, 1:15:15.360 --> 1:15:17.479 he's almost not worth the time that I've already spent 1:15:17.560 --> 1:15:20.920 on him. But I do think that it's for for one, 1:15:21.560 --> 1:15:23.800 it's it gives me an opportunity to say that I 1:15:23.840 --> 1:15:28.680 was always so impressed, uh, both in my time in 1:15:28.720 --> 1:15:31.360 Iraq and Afghanistan and then just state side as well. 1:15:31.400 --> 1:15:34.799 I spent time at lots of different military facilities doing training, 1:15:34.880 --> 1:15:38.160 and I guess I don't know the state side stuff 1:15:38.160 --> 1:15:39.960 I can probably talk about, although not all of it's 1:15:39.960 --> 1:15:41.479 on of it and not allowed to talk about. Uh. 1:15:42.120 --> 1:15:44.479 But I was always so impressed with our military, and 1:15:44.680 --> 1:15:46.760 uh it was such an honor to be around them 1:15:46.760 --> 1:15:50.439 as a civilian intelligence analyst and to be even some 1:15:50.520 --> 1:15:53.439 little small part of what they were doing day to 1:15:53.520 --> 1:15:57.479 day overseas. And and then also it's just it is 1:15:57.520 --> 1:16:00.439 a reminder for me, or for all of us, that 1:16:00.520 --> 1:16:05.760 there exists on the left, this this distaste for the 1:16:05.760 --> 1:16:08.000 military that I think just has to come from a 1:16:08.080 --> 1:16:11.320 sense of the uh well, one of a wild ignorance 1:16:11.320 --> 1:16:12.960 of what the milit This guy doesn't know an even 1:16:12.960 --> 1:16:15.120 milit he doesn't know anything. This guy is a complete imbecile. 1:16:15.200 --> 1:16:18.200 But also for a lot of a lot of leftists, 1:16:18.240 --> 1:16:22.400 the military just makes them uncomfortable. It makes them feel, 1:16:22.880 --> 1:16:25.000 you know, that that there are people who would be 1:16:25.080 --> 1:16:27.560 willing to sacrifice what those in our military do and 1:16:27.680 --> 1:16:32.360 and have the virtues of those who serve in uniform. 1:16:32.400 --> 1:16:34.800 It makes the people that would criticize the military just 1:16:34.840 --> 1:16:38.000 makes them feel so uncomfortable and small and less then 1:16:38.040 --> 1:16:52.360 so they lash out other shows just talk at you 1:16:52.720 --> 1:16:55.960 in the Freedom Hud. We have a mission. We fight 1:16:56.040 --> 1:16:59.240 for the truth in a team effort and buck us 1:16:59.280 --> 1:17:06.879 back with our next play. There's been talk of raids 1:17:07.240 --> 1:17:11.400 on California businesses for a while. I'm saying that it's happened. 1:17:11.520 --> 1:17:15.680 This week is seventies seven businesses in northern California. Immigrations 1:17:15.680 --> 1:17:20.439 and Customs enforcement officers have gone in, and let's say raids. 1:17:20.479 --> 1:17:22.320 They make it sound like they're swooping in there with 1:17:22.360 --> 1:17:24.720 swat teams and guys who are repelling off the helicopters. 1:17:24.960 --> 1:17:28.080 Move Move Move. It's not like that they show up, 1:17:28.479 --> 1:17:33.240 probably wearing windbreakers that say ice on them, Ice ice baby, 1:17:35.760 --> 1:17:38.800 And you know they probably show up and they say, hey, 1:17:39.000 --> 1:17:41.160 do you have papers for all your workers? And I'm 1:17:41.280 --> 1:17:44.080 I'm guessing it's I'm not saying it's a pleasant experience, 1:17:44.080 --> 1:17:46.439 but I don't think it's They're not exactly rolling the 1:17:46.479 --> 1:17:49.320 flash bangs in there, like weir, you may have illegal 1:17:49.360 --> 1:17:53.880 workers in this meat processing factory. Move Move Move. I 1:17:53.880 --> 1:17:55.400 don't think that's what the way that it goes. But 1:17:55.439 --> 1:17:57.479 I'm sure that they've gone in and they're checking the workers, 1:17:57.520 --> 1:18:02.240 and in California, that makes businesses nerve. I wonder what 1:18:02.240 --> 1:18:07.559 what percentage of hourly wage paying businesses in California have 1:18:07.560 --> 1:18:11.439 have at least one illegal immig work. I have no idea. 1:18:11.560 --> 1:18:13.120 That's not like a retroical question where I'm about to 1:18:13.120 --> 1:18:15.160 say and I'm bucked. So I've got an answer, but 1:18:15.200 --> 1:18:19.920 I'm guessing it's probably pretty high. But this is one 1:18:19.960 --> 1:18:23.360 of the many different facets of the discussion of immigration that, 1:18:23.400 --> 1:18:25.760 as I've been said, we're gonna have. But you know, 1:18:26.280 --> 1:18:28.320 then you get into some of the media on this 1:18:28.400 --> 1:18:31.639 and you think they need to do some more were 1:18:31.680 --> 1:18:36.760 research on these topics. Uh. Joy Read, who is a 1:18:36.840 --> 1:18:41.160 host at MSNBC. Now, look, we've had some we've heard 1:18:41.200 --> 1:18:43.240 some dumb things said. This week on air, we had 1:18:43.640 --> 1:18:50.080 Kirsten Gillibrand with chained migration. So that was pretty bad 1:18:50.120 --> 1:18:52.040 for a sitting US senator. Joy Read is not a 1:18:52.080 --> 1:18:54.560 sitting US senator, but she is a host at MSNBC, 1:18:54.720 --> 1:18:56.400 and I'm assuming she gets paid a whole lot of 1:18:56.400 --> 1:19:01.000 money to do that job. And she weighed in on 1:19:01.080 --> 1:19:04.800 the issue of MS thirteen and here's how it went. 1:19:05.200 --> 1:19:07.320 And give the speech tonight in which he makes it 1:19:07.360 --> 1:19:09.960 sound like the biggest issue in the United States are 1:19:10.000 --> 1:19:13.160 the biggest one is MS thirteen, a gang nobody that 1:19:13.200 --> 1:19:15.400 doesn't watch Foxos has ever heard of. So it makes 1:19:15.439 --> 1:19:19.719 it sound like they're the biggest Nobody that's never watched 1:19:19.800 --> 1:19:21.920 Fox News has ever heard of m S thirteen. How 1:19:22.040 --> 1:19:28.280 Mara Salvatrucha thirteen an international criminal gang that has infiltrated 1:19:29.280 --> 1:19:34.680 UH dozens of states across the country. A gang that 1:19:34.800 --> 1:19:37.720 is well known actually in the DC area. Some of 1:19:37.760 --> 1:19:41.679 you who live in some parts of sort of sort 1:19:41.720 --> 1:19:45.720 of the Beltway region will be like, yep, we've had 1:19:45.960 --> 1:19:50.280 really terrible problems with m S thirteen. There were two 1:19:50.400 --> 1:19:52.240 young women murdered in their parents with the State of 1:19:52.240 --> 1:19:55.280 the Union address that was in Long Island. You're in 1:19:55.320 --> 1:19:59.200 the New York areas at an hour or so from 1:19:59.200 --> 1:20:03.720 where I am doing this show right now. So and 1:20:03.720 --> 1:20:07.280 and the gangs, yes, they say they started in US prisons, 1:20:07.280 --> 1:20:10.880 but their local the locusts of power. Oh maybe because 1:20:10.880 --> 1:20:14.280 the border is porous, and so MS thirteen gang members 1:20:14.280 --> 1:20:16.520 can go back and forth. And that's actually an advantage, 1:20:16.520 --> 1:20:19.080 isn't it to be able to leave the country where 1:20:19.080 --> 1:20:21.439 you're doing the crimes and go to a country where 1:20:21.439 --> 1:20:26.040 you can have relative safe haven because there's no effective 1:20:26.080 --> 1:20:30.439 rule of law in place right Al Salvador, Honduras, parts 1:20:30.439 --> 1:20:33.679 of Mexico. But this is what you're going to get, 1:20:34.160 --> 1:20:40.120 the propagation of ignorance when it comes to immigration, because 1:20:41.120 --> 1:20:45.320 they would rather tell people lies about things like m S. 1:20:45.400 --> 1:20:49.559 Thirteen and make this a make gang activity that ties 1:20:49.600 --> 1:20:52.760 to border security and immigration, making an issue of just 1:20:53.160 --> 1:20:56.839 Fox News making a problem of the of the Fox 1:20:56.920 --> 1:21:00.720 News sphere instead of having to attack to tackle it 1:21:00.760 --> 1:21:03.800 and deal with it, which you know, I think that 1:21:04.160 --> 1:21:06.960 once we start to force one of the most important 1:21:06.960 --> 1:21:08.720 things we could do for the immigration debate, in my 1:21:10.280 --> 1:21:14.200 humble opinion, would be to force states to start keeping 1:21:14.280 --> 1:21:19.000 much better stats on illegal alien crime and what's going 1:21:19.040 --> 1:21:22.240 on in the States that has to do with illegal 1:21:22.280 --> 1:21:26.080 aliens breaking the law. In general, the Feds have pretty 1:21:26.120 --> 1:21:29.360 decent stats and and there's a high percentage, especially when 1:21:29.400 --> 1:21:33.120 you add in drug crimes, a lot of illegal alien 1:21:33.200 --> 1:21:37.559 drug crime, and so that's already well established. But if 1:21:37.560 --> 1:21:39.560 you're talking about violent crime, as I've been mentioned to 1:21:39.600 --> 1:21:41.160 you on the show, then you've really got to get 1:21:41.200 --> 1:21:43.840 into what's going on at the state level. That's where 1:21:43.840 --> 1:21:49.280 you get state prisons and the activities of law enforcement 1:21:49.400 --> 1:21:52.040 that wouldn't be federal necessarily, And that's where I think 1:21:52.080 --> 1:21:54.839 you'd see that this is a is a big issue 1:21:55.360 --> 1:21:59.080 m and MS thirteen is frightening because I've told you 1:21:59.120 --> 1:22:03.559 it's also it's incredibly violent, and the gang initiations are 1:22:03.600 --> 1:22:09.519 are brutal, beyond the brutal, beyond imagination. Um. But they're 1:22:09.560 --> 1:22:14.760 also often doing the bidding of bigger transnational criminal organizations. 1:22:15.479 --> 1:22:18.840 And this is all part of the storyline that you 1:22:18.840 --> 1:22:22.240 would be hearing if the media cared to talk much 1:22:22.240 --> 1:22:25.880 about this, but they have, and I would also not. 1:22:26.280 --> 1:22:28.680 You see how it's always whenever we're talking about legal immigration, 1:22:29.200 --> 1:22:34.280 there's always this focus on Well, of course, the Valedictorians 1:22:35.040 --> 1:22:38.720 the most sympathetic stories possible because they're trying to push 1:22:38.720 --> 1:22:41.599 a narrative. I get that. Well, you'll notice that they 1:22:41.680 --> 1:22:43.080 you don't hear a lot of stories. You don't read 1:22:43.080 --> 1:22:45.720 a lot of stories about other forms of legal immigration 1:22:45.760 --> 1:22:48.920 that are going on, that aren't coming from south of 1:22:48.960 --> 1:22:53.080 the border, that aren't involving Mexico and Central American countries. Yeah, 1:22:53.640 --> 1:22:56.200 are we allowed to have it? Is it racist? Is 1:22:56.200 --> 1:22:59.360 it xenophobic? Does it make you a bad person if 1:22:59.360 --> 1:23:02.840 you think that a people who come here from China 1:23:02.880 --> 1:23:06.040 specifically to have a baby on US soil so that 1:23:06.080 --> 1:23:09.520 the baby has citizenship, but then go back to China 1:23:09.800 --> 1:23:12.360 right away, so the person is raised in China but 1:23:12.360 --> 1:23:14.800 then has US citizenship. And this means that later on 1:23:14.960 --> 1:23:18.280 they can come here for for school or for whatever 1:23:18.320 --> 1:23:21.280 they want to do. Are we allowed to object to that? 1:23:22.400 --> 1:23:26.320 Is that not scamming the system? I think actually some 1:23:26.360 --> 1:23:29.479 guy just got in trouble, by the way in I 1:23:29.479 --> 1:23:34.680 think it was Massachusetts for marrying nine women so that 1:23:34.720 --> 1:23:38.920 they could become permanent residents. Right, it was a fraudulent 1:23:39.400 --> 1:23:42.639 marriage scheme. These are there are all these different ways 1:23:42.680 --> 1:23:46.559 that people are abusing the system and enforcement is very low. 1:23:46.600 --> 1:23:48.400 I mean, look, it's not like the guy got to 1:23:48.520 --> 1:23:50.519 wife number two or three and they figured out that 1:23:50.560 --> 1:23:56.560 he was engaged in fraudulent marriage nine and he was busy. 1:23:56.680 --> 1:23:58.720 That's a lot of that's a lot of marriages. That's like, 1:23:58.920 --> 1:24:01.880 that's like Larry King novel marriages. He's got I think 1:24:01.880 --> 1:24:05.519 he's yeah, I went there like seven or eight. Hey, 1:24:05.560 --> 1:24:10.439 buck back off, I'm lucky number seven. But Larry, Larry, 1:24:10.439 --> 1:24:13.760 I think he managed to seven He's managed to seven wives. Um, 1:24:13.800 --> 1:24:15.519 but is he still on that channel, by the way, 1:24:15.560 --> 1:24:18.200 the one that's the he wasn't even a weird you know, 1:24:18.240 --> 1:24:20.680 he's still doing a thing, right. I forget what it 1:24:20.720 --> 1:24:22.720 is when of these guys, he was just never ever 1:24:22.720 --> 1:24:25.400 going to give up, never done with, never done with media, 1:24:25.439 --> 1:24:28.040 and never done with you know, Hey, there's always time 1:24:28.040 --> 1:24:31.960 for another wife. But yeah, this guy had had nine people. Buck, 1:24:32.000 --> 1:24:33.519 it could have been true love the whole time, with 1:24:33.560 --> 1:24:37.160 all the different ones. Okay, I mean, look whatever, it's 1:24:37.200 --> 1:24:40.320 not my life. Um, but the different ways that the 1:24:40.320 --> 1:24:46.519 immigration system are scammed, it just should be bothersome to 1:24:46.520 --> 1:24:48.960 all Americans. And that's never the discussion we get to have. 1:24:49.040 --> 1:24:52.439 We never get to talk about fixes. It's just all 1:24:52.520 --> 1:24:55.040 we've heard about our dreamers. I want more of a 1:24:55.080 --> 1:24:58.800 discussion of Remember the Trump administration set up in office 1:24:58.840 --> 1:25:02.679 to set up the statistics of illegal alien crime. I'd 1:25:02.720 --> 1:25:04.360 like to know what those numbers are. We should all 1:25:04.400 --> 1:25:06.840 be much more familiar with that. We should know what 1:25:07.000 --> 1:25:10.920 some of the statistics involved here are. That makes makes 1:25:10.960 --> 1:25:15.240 it possible for us to make better decisions. Show, Um, 1:25:15.360 --> 1:25:18.840 we're gonna get into a roll call obviously later on. Also, 1:25:18.880 --> 1:25:22.280 we've got a phenomenal congressional candidate joining was a former 1:25:22.360 --> 1:25:25.120 Navy seal. He's gonna tell you his story, and we've 1:25:25.160 --> 1:25:27.360 got a lot more coming. Oh and also Miko on 1:25:27.439 --> 1:25:30.320 Morning Joe said something interesting for a change. We'll be 1:25:30.320 --> 1:25:34.320 back with that. Stay with me. I do not watch 1:25:35.080 --> 1:25:38.080 Morning Joe because it is on MSNBC. I also don't 1:25:38.080 --> 1:25:40.479 watch it because I think it's a smug, boring show 1:25:40.520 --> 1:25:45.160 full of people who don't say anything particularly insightful. But occasionally, 1:25:45.760 --> 1:25:49.960 any show that's on cable news might stumble upon an 1:25:49.960 --> 1:25:55.720 interesting exchange, and that actually happened on Morning Joe earlier today. 1:25:55.760 --> 1:25:58.439 So this guy, Michael Wolf, we all know him because 1:25:58.439 --> 1:26:03.920 of fire and fury. He's been getting all kinds of 1:26:04.200 --> 1:26:07.760 heat because he came out and said things like if 1:26:07.800 --> 1:26:10.200 it rings true, it is true. And he is now 1:26:10.479 --> 1:26:17.160 a h an emblem, a symbol of the era of 1:26:17.400 --> 1:26:22.200 fake news, anti Trump journalism in which we find ourselves. 1:26:22.520 --> 1:26:26.360 And he has said some really nasty stuff about various 1:26:26.520 --> 1:26:31.560 people in Trump's orbit, including that the really the nastiest 1:26:32.520 --> 1:26:36.280 has to do with the insinuations that he has made 1:26:36.439 --> 1:26:41.519 recently that Nicky Haley, the U S Ambassador United Nations 1:26:41.840 --> 1:26:44.840 and a former governors you all know that she has 1:26:44.840 --> 1:26:47.800 had an affair with Donald Trump, which is such a 1:26:48.400 --> 1:26:51.600 grotesque and unfair charge that even repeating the charge that 1:26:51.640 --> 1:26:54.960 he made makes me feel uncomfortable because it feels like 1:26:55.000 --> 1:26:58.679 it's something that should not be repeated, even as as 1:26:58.760 --> 1:27:02.240 quoting someone else. But we have have to smash the lie, 1:27:02.320 --> 1:27:04.160 and to smash the lie, you have to define it. 1:27:04.200 --> 1:27:06.800 You do have to say it. And he wrote in 1:27:06.840 --> 1:27:09.479 the end of the book about how Nicki Haley's spent 1:27:09.720 --> 1:27:11.920 very close to Trump talking about her future, spending a 1:27:11.960 --> 1:27:15.519 lone time, and then he went on the Bill Maher show, um, 1:27:15.680 --> 1:27:18.439 which I for a whole bunch of reasons, have have 1:27:18.600 --> 1:27:20.920 never been asked to appear on. I don't think ever 1:27:21.000 --> 1:27:23.960 will be because I would smoke fools, because that's what 1:27:24.000 --> 1:27:28.080 I do. But the Bill mar Show had this guy on, 1:27:28.120 --> 1:27:29.840 I think it was last week. I did not watch. 1:27:30.160 --> 1:27:33.680 I do not watch it. And he said, well, if 1:27:33.680 --> 1:27:37.519 you want to know something else that you know that's 1:27:37.560 --> 1:27:40.280 interesting about Trump and he's having an affair, And they said, 1:27:40.280 --> 1:27:41.640 what do you mean. He goes, well, you know, if 1:27:41.640 --> 1:27:43.960 you look at the end of my book, you'll get 1:27:43.960 --> 1:27:47.240 a hint. He was not subtle about it. And so 1:27:47.320 --> 1:27:50.840 he's basically he's basically sad that Nicky Haley he's having 1:27:50.880 --> 1:27:53.000 an affair at the president United States, which is just 1:27:53.920 --> 1:27:55.439 I mean, this guy is a client. I want my 1:27:56.040 --> 1:27:59.040 twelve dollars back for the kindle download of this guy's book, 1:27:59.080 --> 1:28:04.160 Fire and Fury. But Mika, oh, look at this. Mika 1:28:04.280 --> 1:28:08.280 had had enough. Finally, here here is how this exchange went. 1:28:09.280 --> 1:28:12.880 Let's put this next question, uh, in the entire credibility 1:28:12.920 --> 1:28:16.040 of your book, which was written really quickly. Excuse me, 1:28:16.280 --> 1:28:20.240 your book. Let's let's let's put it on this next question. 1:28:21.080 --> 1:28:25.080 Do you regret inferring anything about Nicki Haley. I. I 1:28:25.120 --> 1:28:29.439 didn't infer anything about Nicki Haley. What I inferred was 1:28:29.560 --> 1:28:34.559 that the president is um um is that many of 1:28:34.560 --> 1:28:37.479 the people around the president believe he is still involved 1:28:37.520 --> 1:28:40.240 with various women. But you said she spent a lot 1:28:40.280 --> 1:28:44.559 of time in private time with that's I totally totally. 1:28:44.960 --> 1:28:48.519 I mean, that's exactly what people report and now, and 1:28:48.640 --> 1:28:52.800 specifically that was about her bid to become the Secretary 1:28:52.840 --> 1:28:56.080 of State. So everywhere in the White House they were 1:28:56.160 --> 1:29:00.479 suddenly in a in a in quite a pen that 1:29:00.600 --> 1:29:07.040 this was actually happening. Has embraced it. Um, I'm going 1:29:07.120 --> 1:29:09.760 to go as far as to say that you might 1:29:09.760 --> 1:29:12.360 be having a fun time playing. So hold on, so 1:29:12.400 --> 1:29:14.600 you see what he's doing there by the way, you know, 1:29:14.720 --> 1:29:17.439 depending on which audience this guy Wolf is talking to, 1:29:18.400 --> 1:29:21.000 he he just changes what he's saying or changes what 1:29:21.040 --> 1:29:24.439 he's inferring. And she's got him here on this one 1:29:24.479 --> 1:29:28.200 because it is not it has not been murky what 1:29:28.400 --> 1:29:31.439 his insinuation has been. She's not saying you explicitly said it, 1:29:31.520 --> 1:29:34.280 but you you know, this is like saying, oh, you 1:29:34.320 --> 1:29:36.840 know who I think is the dumbest person in Congress? 1:29:37.479 --> 1:29:42.720 Franci loc Well, I think people would figure out who 1:29:42.760 --> 1:29:45.200 I'm referring to, right, you know, it's it's not I 1:29:45.240 --> 1:29:48.320 didn't technically name anyone in Congress, but it's I'm not 1:29:48.400 --> 1:29:52.240 I'm not being I'm not being clever there. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, 1:29:52.360 --> 1:29:56.960 you're not big clever. So he continues on with this, 1:29:58.520 --> 1:30:02.240 let's put this next question, Uh, the entire credibility of 1:30:02.240 --> 1:30:06.040 your book, which was written really quickly, excuse me, your book. 1:30:07.360 --> 1:30:10.439 Let's let's let's put it on this next question, do 1:30:10.439 --> 1:30:14.639 you regret inferring anything about Nicki Haley. I. I didn't 1:30:14.680 --> 1:30:19.040 infer anything about Nicki Haley. What I inferred was that 1:30:19.439 --> 1:30:23.880 the president is um um is that many of the 1:30:23.880 --> 1:30:26.880 people around the president believe he is still involved with 1:30:27.080 --> 1:30:29.479 various women. Now, but you said she spent a lot 1:30:29.520 --> 1:30:33.759 of time in private time with that's I totally, totally. 1:30:34.200 --> 1:30:37.760 I mean, that's exactly what people report and now, and 1:30:37.840 --> 1:30:42.040 specifically that was about her bid to become the Secretary 1:30:42.040 --> 1:30:45.280 of State. So everywhere in the White House they were 1:30:45.400 --> 1:30:49.680 suddenly in a in a in quite a panic that 1:30:49.800 --> 1:30:55.560 this was actually happenings why they pushed has embraced it. Um, 1:30:55.960 --> 1:30:59.320 I'm going to go as far as might be having 1:30:59.360 --> 1:31:01.800 a fun time. I'm playing a little game dancing around this. 1:31:01.960 --> 1:31:06.679 But you're slurring a woman. It's disgraceful. It's and and um, 1:31:06.760 --> 1:31:11.120 Mika again, she has been accused of nothing. She has 1:31:11.160 --> 1:31:14.240 decided to deny what she has not been accused of. 1:31:14.640 --> 1:31:17.680 Certainly I didn't accuse her of this. The wait, are 1:31:17.680 --> 1:31:20.320 you are you suggesting that much suggesting the language is 1:31:20.360 --> 1:31:23.559 not ambiguous in any way, and the things that you've 1:31:23.560 --> 1:31:26.200 said in the way you've come. Are you kidding? You're 1:31:26.240 --> 1:31:29.280 on the Saturday Morning Joe. We don't be as here, well, no, 1:31:29.400 --> 1:31:34.360 not of a set of Morning Joe. Are you kidding me? 1:31:36.400 --> 1:31:40.200 If you don't get it, you don't get about I'm sorry, 1:31:40.479 --> 1:31:42.559 this is awkward. You're here on the set with us. 1:31:42.600 --> 1:31:45.400 But we're done, Michael Will thank you. We're gonna go 1:31:45.439 --> 1:31:47.519 to break now. Look I give her some credit for 1:31:47.560 --> 1:31:49.799 finally dropping the hammer there. Although I love this. Excuse 1:31:49.880 --> 1:31:53.240 excuse me, sir, this is the set of Morning Joe. 1:31:53.439 --> 1:31:57.040 Like like this is, you know, sixty minutes in the 1:31:57.080 --> 1:31:59.400 eighties or something like. Just just just calm yourself there 1:31:59.400 --> 1:32:00.640 a little bit. All right, I've seen a lot of 1:32:00.640 --> 1:32:06.080 stuff on Morning Joe. It's not impressive. But this guy, 1:32:06.120 --> 1:32:08.559 this is why this matters. I mean, forget about them, 1:32:08.640 --> 1:32:10.800 get thing because at this point that he's become he's 1:32:10.840 --> 1:32:14.479 become pretty toxic. Well you'll notice that when it was useful, 1:32:14.560 --> 1:32:16.639 the media was all playing along. They're all going on 1:32:16.760 --> 1:32:18.759 with this, and I told you I want my twelve 1:32:18.760 --> 1:32:20.920 dollars back from Kindle or whatever it was for doubling 1:32:20.960 --> 1:32:25.439 this guy's nonsense book. But when it was damaging the 1:32:25.479 --> 1:32:28.479 Trump you know, this is a common theme when it 1:32:28.600 --> 1:32:31.360 was useful for them. There, Oh, we gotta look at 1:32:31.360 --> 1:32:33.200 this guy, and we got a book him for all 1:32:33.320 --> 1:32:36.600 these interviews and everything else. You know, you look at 1:32:36.640 --> 1:32:38.160 the way they treat him, and then you compare that 1:32:38.240 --> 1:32:40.240 to say, I don't know, compare that to like the 1:32:40.280 --> 1:32:43.439 way the media responded to and Coulter's book Audios America, 1:32:43.479 --> 1:32:47.000 which Trump read and then took some messaging from to 1:32:47.120 --> 1:32:50.120 become the next president of the United States. Oh no, 1:32:50.200 --> 1:32:51.840 I can't have you know, they they've got all these 1:32:51.880 --> 1:32:53.680 problems about and she talks about it on air all 1:32:53.720 --> 1:32:57.320 the time. But this guy, Michael Wolf, he comes along 1:32:57.360 --> 1:33:00.519 with this book. He's just saying nons and stuff. You 1:33:00.560 --> 1:33:02.600 read the book, you go, there's no way, and you 1:33:02.640 --> 1:33:06.400 can always tell to this whole reconstructed conversations. I can't 1:33:06.400 --> 1:33:08.840 remember what I said to like my family or my 1:33:08.880 --> 1:33:11.920 girlfriend twelve hours ago. There's notion that your journalists like. 1:33:11.960 --> 1:33:14.960 And then he furrowed his brow and said something that's 1:33:15.040 --> 1:33:18.080 just perfect for my book right then, like, no way, 1:33:18.640 --> 1:33:22.439 no way. I've sat in a fair amount of high 1:33:22.560 --> 1:33:27.719 level government meetings. I've been around people and important national 1:33:27.760 --> 1:33:31.840 security topics were being discussed, and it's very rare for 1:33:31.840 --> 1:33:34.720 someone to say something that you're like, Wow, that's a 1:33:34.760 --> 1:33:37.360 real doozy. That's quite that's quite a line, you know, 1:33:37.960 --> 1:33:41.400 Mr President, I don't dance. You know, that's not It 1:33:41.400 --> 1:33:43.559 works in clear and present danger, but that's not the 1:33:43.600 --> 1:33:47.880 way the old Potomac two step Jack. You guys remember 1:33:47.880 --> 1:33:50.320 that scene in clear and present danger. It's good, Yeah, exactly. 1:33:50.320 --> 1:33:52.559 You know you're going to keep this one in your 1:33:52.600 --> 1:33:56.240 back pocket. I do sound just like the President, So 1:33:56.360 --> 1:33:58.519 I'm just putting that out there. Getting a little heat 1:33:58.600 --> 1:34:00.840 lately for some of my impressions. But go back and 1:34:00.880 --> 1:34:02.960 watch that movie. I could be that actor whatever his 1:34:03.080 --> 1:34:08.519 name is. Anyway. But this whole Michael wolfbook, they used it. 1:34:08.560 --> 1:34:11.640 They trashed Trump yea to borrow from the one and 1:34:11.680 --> 1:34:14.760 only for a second Rush Limbaugh, the whole notion of 1:34:14.760 --> 1:34:16.719 the drive by media. The reason it's such a great 1:34:16.720 --> 1:34:19.439 thing to say it's stuck for solo because it's so true, 1:34:19.880 --> 1:34:22.080 right Michael Wolf. It's like he's the guy in the 1:34:22.120 --> 1:34:25.080 back seat with two tech nine just spraying all over 1:34:25.120 --> 1:34:27.599 the place. And yeah, you know, now they'll now, they'll 1:34:27.640 --> 1:34:29.599 let him go to prison. But you know they drove 1:34:29.680 --> 1:34:31.800 him there. You know, they let him do his thing, 1:34:32.240 --> 1:34:34.200 They let him smear a bunch of people, and they 1:34:34.280 --> 1:34:39.360 let him it is. It is just appalling. And finally 1:34:39.400 --> 1:34:41.680 now he really gets called out for it, and it's 1:34:41.720 --> 1:34:46.639 on an issue, a me to issue, which is also 1:34:46.680 --> 1:34:50.840 a a place where you'll see plenty of big media 1:34:50.880 --> 1:34:54.000 names playing folks in the news. This is now a 1:34:54.040 --> 1:34:56.160 brand issue for them, right. They want to be the 1:34:56.200 --> 1:34:59.559 person that speaks out against any an me too stuff, 1:34:59.600 --> 1:35:03.240 and uh, you know it's it's not an active bravery 1:35:03.280 --> 1:35:05.640 to stand up now and call it out for for 1:35:05.840 --> 1:35:07.840 me too. I will. This is kind of funny. I 1:35:07.880 --> 1:35:09.960 just I just saw this before today on the five, 1:35:10.000 --> 1:35:12.720 but there was a total change of pace. But they 1:35:12.720 --> 1:35:15.439 do text from mom. Do you ever see this? They have, 1:35:15.520 --> 1:35:18.120 some of them do these texts from their mom? I 1:35:18.160 --> 1:35:21.599 always I have some. I have some. It's pretty funny. Yeah. 1:35:21.760 --> 1:35:25.040 I have some conservative friends here in New York, and 1:35:25.160 --> 1:35:28.240 I I keep all of my personal correspondence in in 1:35:28.840 --> 1:35:31.640 privacy and always will unless they were to give me 1:35:31.680 --> 1:35:34.280 permission explicitly and say you can use this stuff, because 1:35:34.280 --> 1:35:36.040 I get great stuff. I'm like, man, I want to 1:35:36.080 --> 1:35:38.200 steal some of my friends lines and throw them on Twitter, 1:35:38.280 --> 1:35:40.599 and I get great stuff sent to me all the time. 1:35:40.960 --> 1:35:43.880 The conservative underground in New York City is a very 1:35:45.200 --> 1:35:48.519 very well well read and witty group of folks because 1:35:48.520 --> 1:35:50.160 we have to be you know, you gotta be ready 1:35:50.160 --> 1:35:53.240 for whatever. But that's I guess I'll have to think 1:35:53.240 --> 1:35:54.720 about a way to get that going another time. I 1:35:54.760 --> 1:35:56.920 would love to have some of my stealth conservative friends 1:35:56.960 --> 1:35:58.680 calling here. We'd have to give them. It would have 1:35:58.680 --> 1:36:01.240 to be like one of those shows where they do 1:36:01.280 --> 1:36:03.720 the guy who's in the witness protection or something, and 1:36:03.720 --> 1:36:06.200 they do the word you know they met. They make 1:36:06.280 --> 1:36:09.160 the voice all weird. I didn't do a good job 1:36:09.160 --> 1:36:10.960 of that impression at all, but and they blur out 1:36:11.000 --> 1:36:13.360 the face. We have to do that with the Conservatives 1:36:13.360 --> 1:36:15.559 because I want them get in trouble with their Wall 1:36:15.600 --> 1:36:18.479 Street jobs or whatever else they do here. But these 1:36:18.520 --> 1:36:21.639 are just segment ideas that I have. So uh yeah, anyway, 1:36:21.840 --> 1:36:23.840 so good for me. Back to Morning Joe. Good for 1:36:23.880 --> 1:36:27.920 me because she finally did something worth while on Morning Joe. Uh, 1:36:27.960 --> 1:36:33.440 we're gonna talk to a retired Navy seal Purple Heart recipient. 1:36:33.840 --> 1:36:35.640 We're gonna talk to him in just a moment here 1:36:35.640 --> 1:36:38.200 about his run for Congress. If fascinating, guy, Stay with 1:36:38.200 --> 1:36:40.760 me for that and much more. All right, everybody, So 1:36:40.800 --> 1:36:43.240 the midterms are always away, but we've already got some 1:36:43.320 --> 1:36:46.360 very interesting story shaping up, some different races across the 1:36:46.400 --> 1:36:49.000 ton of the country that are getting some attention. I 1:36:49.000 --> 1:36:52.080 want to introduce you to Dan Crenshaw. Dan is a 1:36:52.200 --> 1:36:56.639 retired lieutenant commander. He's running for Congress to replace retiring 1:36:56.680 --> 1:37:01.720 Republican Congressman Ted Poe. Crenshaw was medically retired after a 1:37:01.840 --> 1:37:05.960 ten year career in the Navy Seals. Dan revealed that 1:37:06.000 --> 1:37:07.800 he was hit by an I E. D blast in 1:37:07.840 --> 1:37:10.920 Afghanistan will on his third deployment. He lost his right 1:37:11.000 --> 1:37:14.120 eye and his left eye was badly damaged. He explains 1:37:14.160 --> 1:37:16.920 that after several miracle surgeries, he was able to regain 1:37:17.000 --> 1:37:19.920 sight in his left eye, and Dan Crenshaw retired the 1:37:19.920 --> 1:37:23.559 tenant Commander. Crenshaw is now running for Congress. Dahn, great 1:37:23.560 --> 1:37:26.240 to have you on, great to be here, Thank you 1:37:26.280 --> 1:37:28.000 for having me. All right, just just tell folks a 1:37:28.000 --> 1:37:30.320 little bit about your story. It's it's quite compelling, and 1:37:30.360 --> 1:37:33.880 it's good to see that people with backgrounds like yours 1:37:33.920 --> 1:37:37.240 are trying to get into the political arena. Yeah, I 1:37:37.240 --> 1:37:39.559 mean you you hit all the high points. Um did 1:37:39.600 --> 1:37:43.400 about five deployments overall. After I did get hurt, like 1:37:43.600 --> 1:37:45.920 I left the Navy kicking and screaming, I did two 1:37:45.920 --> 1:37:48.200 more deployments back to the Middle East, and then my 1:37:48.280 --> 1:37:52.679 last one two six team was in Korea mostly until 1:37:52.800 --> 1:37:56.920 the operations related. So, um, you know, one of the 1:37:56.920 --> 1:37:58.919 reasons I'm running is because I want people in Congress 1:37:58.920 --> 1:38:02.280 with a he said, relevant experience on some of the 1:38:02.280 --> 1:38:04.839 bigger issues are president is facing right now. That's Korea, 1:38:05.640 --> 1:38:08.280 that's the Iran, it's kind of terrorism, it's kind of 1:38:08.280 --> 1:38:11.640 prolifration issues. And uh, you know, the competition doesn't know 1:38:11.680 --> 1:38:13.840 anything about these. They just got talking points. And when 1:38:13.880 --> 1:38:16.720 it comes to national security, it comes to border security, 1:38:17.280 --> 1:38:20.920 comes to our defense, you can't rely on talking points, 1:38:20.920 --> 1:38:22.880 You can't rely on a think tank to tell you 1:38:22.920 --> 1:38:27.000 what to think. You need experience, and I think the 1:38:27.040 --> 1:38:30.320 people in our leadership in Washington needs folks who can 1:38:30.360 --> 1:38:33.720 hit the ground running. Um. It's important to me and 1:38:33.800 --> 1:38:35.640 it's important to the safety of our country. Talk to 1:38:35.720 --> 1:38:38.960 you a bit about Korea dance, specifically the North South issue. 1:38:39.200 --> 1:38:41.439 Kim Jong on What do you think about what the 1:38:41.439 --> 1:38:44.599 Trump administration has been doing thus far and what would 1:38:44.600 --> 1:38:47.040 you either like to see changed or more of with 1:38:47.080 --> 1:38:51.439 regard to North Korea if you were to be in Congress. Well, 1:38:51.760 --> 1:38:54.240 it's there's no easy answer to to solve in the 1:38:54.280 --> 1:38:57.800 North Spring crisis. UM. I think the President is trying 1:38:57.840 --> 1:38:59.960 a new track. I think there's method to the man 1:39:00.040 --> 1:39:04.160 is you. We need to create more leverage over the 1:39:04.160 --> 1:39:06.840 North Koreans and that's through China, and the President is 1:39:06.840 --> 1:39:08.839 doing that with a lot of a lot of rhetoric 1:39:08.880 --> 1:39:11.160 that maybe scares people. But if you don't have a 1:39:11.240 --> 1:39:14.479 credible threat on the table, that's a military action on 1:39:14.520 --> 1:39:16.320 the table. If it's not credible, if they don't think 1:39:16.320 --> 1:39:19.559 you'll do it. Uh. The Chinese willing act and we 1:39:19.600 --> 1:39:22.040 really need the Chinese to use their influence over the 1:39:22.040 --> 1:39:24.599 North Koreans to bring them back. And I think behind 1:39:24.600 --> 1:39:27.080 the scenes we might be seeing that. So I think 1:39:27.120 --> 1:39:31.280 there is some method to that to what seems like madness. Um. 1:39:31.360 --> 1:39:33.640 But we have to keep the pressure on. We have 1:39:33.680 --> 1:39:35.720 to look at what more sanctions we can do and 1:39:35.760 --> 1:39:39.200 isolate that regime and punish them for their bad behavior. Um. 1:39:39.680 --> 1:39:44.479 What what is new about this particular, Um, you know, 1:39:44.560 --> 1:39:48.040 new phase in North Korean relationships is the fact that 1:39:48.080 --> 1:39:50.679 they have an I CBM that can reach the United States. 1:39:50.680 --> 1:39:53.559 That when when this kind of saber rattling was occurring before, 1:39:53.800 --> 1:39:56.120 that wasn't the case. We didn't have to worry as much. 1:39:56.160 --> 1:39:58.400 But it is the case now and we do have 1:39:58.479 --> 1:39:59.920 to worry about the time when they can actually put 1:39:59.920 --> 1:40:02.559 a NUC their warhead on that I CBM that can 1:40:02.600 --> 1:40:05.280 reach the United States. That's the real ticking time bomb 1:40:05.439 --> 1:40:07.599 for to speak, that we do not want to see 1:40:07.640 --> 1:40:12.360 happen and we cannot let happen. Speaking to retired Lieutenant 1:40:12.360 --> 1:40:15.280 Commander Dan Crunshaw of the Navy Seals, he is running 1:40:15.400 --> 1:40:20.800 for Congress in the Texas Congressional District number two. Uh 1:40:20.960 --> 1:40:24.000 so tell me about being a Texan, Dan, I love Texas. 1:40:24.000 --> 1:40:26.000 I used to work for the Blaze out of Dallas 1:40:26.040 --> 1:40:28.559 and spent a lot of time down there. I love 1:40:28.600 --> 1:40:34.480 Texas too, you know. And UH, good answer, needless to say. 1:40:34.680 --> 1:40:37.679 And you know what's important to us and here in Texas, 1:40:37.840 --> 1:40:41.240 it's sport of security first, and it sported security second. Uh, 1:40:41.240 --> 1:40:44.920 it's economic freedom. Uh, it's patriotism, It's red, white and blue. 1:40:45.040 --> 1:40:46.599 That's what we're about, and that's the kind of value 1:40:46.640 --> 1:40:49.720 I want to bring to Congress. I feel like you 1:40:49.800 --> 1:40:51.880 can bring up the border security issue, by the way, 1:40:51.920 --> 1:40:55.880 and I've been chasing down some some connections between the 1:40:55.960 --> 1:40:59.599 surgeon and opioid deaths in this overdoses in this country, 1:41:00.040 --> 1:41:03.480 and also the rising power in Mexico of the cartels, 1:41:03.479 --> 1:41:05.800 which seems to me to be a story that's not 1:41:05.840 --> 1:41:08.720 getting nearly enough attention. A big part of that is 1:41:08.760 --> 1:41:12.240 that the border, even when there may be illegal alien 1:41:12.320 --> 1:41:16.240 crossings at at a downward tilts for a while, the 1:41:16.280 --> 1:41:20.280 border is still very much open to enterprising drug traffickers 1:41:20.360 --> 1:41:23.720 who have tremendous resources and a whole lot of economic 1:41:23.760 --> 1:41:27.040 reason to get across. Yeah, that's exactly right, And you 1:41:27.080 --> 1:41:29.439 really bring up a good point about how that might 1:41:29.479 --> 1:41:32.000 affect our opioid crisis that is really becoming a national 1:41:32.040 --> 1:41:36.760 security threat. We're losing people constantly to that all over 1:41:36.800 --> 1:41:39.400 the country. We were that that's something that I would, 1:41:39.479 --> 1:41:41.120 you know, I would support some kind of federal action 1:41:41.120 --> 1:41:43.800 and funding for m to combat that. And part of 1:41:43.800 --> 1:41:46.719 that is border security. Uh, you know, we probably probably 1:41:46.720 --> 1:41:48.599 do see a good deal of that drug trait coming 1:41:48.640 --> 1:41:51.040 from the southern border. It's also there's a lot of 1:41:51.040 --> 1:41:53.840 reasons there's an opioid crisis. It's it's over prescription. It's 1:41:53.880 --> 1:41:57.160 over prescribing these these drugs. It's it's bad pharmacies and 1:41:57.280 --> 1:42:00.200 corrupt pharmacies that are dealing them out. Um, can be down. 1:42:00.400 --> 1:42:03.920 That is huge. But you know, making sure our border 1:42:04.160 --> 1:42:07.320 is safe and secure is just so important to Texans. 1:42:07.360 --> 1:42:10.959 Were on the front lines. We we we would appreciate 1:42:11.000 --> 1:42:13.240 the rest of the country understood that. Um. We know 1:42:13.240 --> 1:42:15.240 when you when you hear rhetoric from the Democrats coming 1:42:15.240 --> 1:42:18.400 out of Joe Kennedy from Massachusetts, you know, I get 1:42:18.400 --> 1:42:21.639 it different up in Massachusetts. I know. I lived there, 1:42:21.640 --> 1:42:23.240 I went to I did, I went to Harvard. I 1:42:23.280 --> 1:42:27.280 get it. But we're in Texas. Were on the front lines. Um, 1:42:27.400 --> 1:42:30.960 we need we need to secure the border. We see, 1:42:31.040 --> 1:42:34.040 we see how porce it is, we see those kind 1:42:34.080 --> 1:42:35.840 of those raute lines that you're talking about from the 1:42:35.920 --> 1:42:38.200 drug trade. It's only a matter of time too. And 1:42:38.240 --> 1:42:39.639 one thing we need to be thinking about. There's really 1:42:39.680 --> 1:42:43.080 ungoverned territories on the other side. But what happens when 1:42:43.560 --> 1:42:47.000 when other entities like Okay to our ices want to 1:42:47.120 --> 1:42:50.439 use those same lines of entry. Uh. And and those 1:42:50.479 --> 1:42:53.640 interests of line between the drug cartels and you know 1:42:53.760 --> 1:42:57.760 chihata groups. What happens then yet, but we need to 1:42:57.760 --> 1:43:00.439 be worried about it. One more for you, and and 1:43:00.720 --> 1:43:02.599 that is and look, I'm putting you on the hot 1:43:02.600 --> 1:43:04.639 seat a little bit here, but you're running for office, 1:43:04.680 --> 1:43:06.639 So this shouldn't this shouldn't be a surprise or comes 1:43:06.680 --> 1:43:13.040 anything new to you? Your favorite all time military memoir? Jeeze? 1:43:13.120 --> 1:43:16.760 How about how about I give you a really cheesy one. Uh? 1:43:16.840 --> 1:43:19.040 You know, how about the book that got me started 1:43:19.240 --> 1:43:21.920 on this path? And it's a little cheesy, but it's 1:43:21.960 --> 1:43:26.120 written by Dick Marcinko. It's called Rogue Warrior. And you 1:43:26.240 --> 1:43:29.360 know it's if I hadn't read that book, I wouldn't 1:43:29.360 --> 1:43:33.519 be here. Now, that's a great book. Twelve I was 1:43:33.600 --> 1:43:38.320 twelve years old, Uh, and you know that that's that's 1:43:38.360 --> 1:43:40.360 what set beyond this path. And I you know, I've 1:43:40.439 --> 1:43:42.320 read it was twelve and wanted to be a seal 1:43:42.360 --> 1:43:44.800 ever since. I like it. Good story, good answer, We'll 1:43:44.840 --> 1:43:46.599 take it. Dan.

Dan, Thank you for your service, 1:44:12.439 --> 1:44:14.960 best to luck. Thank you very much. Dan. All right, team, 1:44:15.040 --> 1:44:16.760 so we are going to roll into a breaker. We're 1:44:16.760 --> 1:44:21.519 gonna get into some Team Buck roll call. See I'm 1:44:21.520 --> 1:44:23.560 I'm I'm back on my game today in terms of 1:44:23.680 --> 1:44:26.760 not getting things confused and in the head quite the 1:44:26.800 --> 1:44:28.439 same way as I did yesterday. We gotta some roll 1:44:28.520 --> 1:44:31.000 call and hear from all of you. All right, everybody 1:44:31.080 --> 1:44:33.080 gets the end of the show. So this is where 1:44:33.320 --> 1:44:35.880 you guys get to tell me what we're talking about 1:44:35.920 --> 1:44:41.559 with roll call. Team Buck. It's time for roll call. 1:44:43.080 --> 1:44:46.519 It is indeed. All right, let's see what we got 1:44:46.640 --> 1:44:49.000 up first. This is always a little risky, by the way. 1:44:49.000 --> 1:44:51.080 Sometimes I start reading stuff and I'm like, oh, I 1:44:51.280 --> 1:44:56.439 can't read that on the radio. So hopefully, hopefully we 1:44:56.479 --> 1:44:58.759 won't have any of that today, although that can happen 1:44:58.840 --> 1:45:01.280 for sure. Hey, you know, I gotta keep it spicy. 1:45:01.360 --> 1:45:03.080 You gotta keep you on your toes out there and 1:45:03.200 --> 1:45:07.200 radio listening land. Speaking of spicy, Miss Molly said that 1:45:07.280 --> 1:45:08.960 she thinks that we should have a cook off because 1:45:08.960 --> 1:45:11.000 I'm getting a little big from my breeches with my 1:45:11.320 --> 1:45:15.439 culinary skills, talking a big game about my ribbi searing 1:45:16.000 --> 1:45:19.519 and various other escapades in the kitchen. And I'm like, honey, 1:45:19.880 --> 1:45:22.160 we're on the same team. We don't do opposing teams. 1:45:22.200 --> 1:45:23.880 I'll let you know. I'll be the sioux chef. You 1:45:23.960 --> 1:45:25.680 get to run the kitchen. That's the way we'll do this. 1:45:25.840 --> 1:45:28.640 But she's she's got quite it when she puts her 1:45:28.680 --> 1:45:30.280 mind to it. She's actually quite a good hand in 1:45:30.320 --> 1:45:33.280 the kitchen. Um, I'm not gonna say that. I don't 1:45:33.400 --> 1:45:38.080 you know. One day I will do my version of eggs. 1:45:38.280 --> 1:45:40.960 I'll a buck and I will show you all, maybe 1:45:41.000 --> 1:45:43.120 on a Facebook live video, just how to make the 1:45:43.120 --> 1:45:44.840 best scrambled eggs there are. I mean, there are a 1:45:44.920 --> 1:45:48.720 few key tips I really should show you because the 1:45:48.760 --> 1:45:50.320 problem I have now there is anywhere I go and 1:45:50.360 --> 1:45:52.800 I order scrambled eggs. I'm like, hey, these are okay 1:45:53.400 --> 1:45:57.880 technically speaking, technically these are scrambled eggs, but they're also 1:45:58.240 --> 1:46:01.840 not as good as my scrambled eggs. I'm just saying, so, uh, 1:46:02.080 --> 1:46:05.400 let's get into some team Buck speaks. Here we get see, 1:46:05.439 --> 1:46:08.439 I just did it some roll call. Those novels that 1:46:08.520 --> 1:46:10.760 you were thinking about, this is from Alan, that were 1:46:10.840 --> 1:46:14.760 sold at grocery stores were called dime store novels back 1:46:14.800 --> 1:46:16.720 in the day. That's where you would find it was 1:46:16.840 --> 1:46:19.120 Nickel and dimes stores, and they were considered to be 1:46:19.280 --> 1:46:22.759 trash books for women. Yes, yes, Alan, that is correct, 1:46:22.800 --> 1:46:25.840 dime store novels. That is what I'm talking about. You know, 1:46:25.960 --> 1:46:29.080 the historical piece that it's always you know, her husband, 1:46:29.280 --> 1:46:31.920 you know, her husband left for the war, and then 1:46:32.000 --> 1:46:36.600 like the handsome guy comes through town, and then the 1:46:36.680 --> 1:46:39.320 husband returns from war, and then you know, the passion 1:46:39.400 --> 1:46:42.640 and the drama all that stuff. Um not that I 1:46:42.720 --> 1:46:45.680 didn't read them, I'm just I saw the covers of them. Sometimes. 1:46:46.640 --> 1:46:49.920 All right, here we go, uh, Ilsa writes in Buck. 1:46:49.960 --> 1:46:51.599 I never know if it does any good to send 1:46:51.640 --> 1:46:54.280 you messages here. Well, Elsa, you're getting your message read 1:46:54.360 --> 1:46:57.960 on the nationally broadcast radio show. But I don't know 1:46:58.040 --> 1:47:00.240 how else to get your attention. I don't remember remember 1:47:00.240 --> 1:47:02.960 how I reached you when I was actually getting you too. 1:47:03.080 --> 1:47:07.200 Right back about my husband's escape from communist Yugoslavia. But 1:47:07.360 --> 1:47:11.559 my concern today is with the Judicial Watch report. Another 1:47:11.680 --> 1:47:14.839 friend shared with me that was about the GOP flying 1:47:15.040 --> 1:47:18.839 DOCTA recipients to different areas on commercial flights of the country. 1:47:19.320 --> 1:47:21.559 What do you know about this? Several people are now 1:47:21.720 --> 1:47:23.920 saying that they will not vote for Republicans again with 1:47:24.000 --> 1:47:26.400 this report. It's true, ILSA, I will tell you I 1:47:26.479 --> 1:47:29.160 don't know much about it. Let me look into it, 1:47:29.800 --> 1:47:32.040 and if it's true, and if it's happening, I will 1:47:32.160 --> 1:47:36.120 come back to you with a with some analysis on it. 1:47:36.200 --> 1:47:38.400 But for right now, I just I don't know what 1:47:38.720 --> 1:47:43.400 the specifics are of the incident or the situation that 1:47:43.479 --> 1:47:47.360 you are citing, So I will take a a rain 1:47:47.479 --> 1:47:51.599 check on the question. If that's okay for now? Uh see, 1:47:52.160 --> 1:47:55.320 Oh here we go. Michael writes in man, your trade 1:47:55.360 --> 1:48:00.120 gaudy was the worst. You've done some real stinkers, but 1:48:00.200 --> 1:48:03.719 that one takes the cake. Hillary is still the best. 1:48:03.840 --> 1:48:06.000 What happened is still the best. Okay, Michael, thank you. 1:48:06.120 --> 1:48:09.000 I agree that Hillary is still the best, but you 1:48:09.080 --> 1:48:11.920 really the trade gutties your excuse me? Sure, or you're 1:48:11.920 --> 1:48:15.439 gonna answer to the question or not. No, you're in 1:48:15.560 --> 1:48:18.639 my courtroom. Sure. Really, it doesn't sound at all I trade. 1:48:18.960 --> 1:48:22.240 Come on, come on, I think it's a little bit. 1:48:22.280 --> 1:48:24.080 I don't think it's the worst. I think I've definitely 1:48:24.120 --> 1:48:27.040 done worst. I've done worse ones. I had to stop 1:48:27.120 --> 1:48:29.840 doing al Gore because my al Gore needed to be 1:48:30.040 --> 1:48:32.960 better than it was and it didn't sound enough like 1:48:33.000 --> 1:48:34.519 al Core. So I gotta work on my al Gore, 1:48:35.320 --> 1:48:38.320 Jessica writes in Hey Buck. And also, though al Gore 1:48:38.439 --> 1:48:40.280 is not really famous these days or he's not talked 1:48:40.320 --> 1:48:42.040 about the media, so maybe I don't have to work 1:48:42.080 --> 1:48:44.680 on my al Gore. You're all like, yeah, that's a 1:48:44.720 --> 1:48:47.720 way better plan, Jessica. With the next one, Hey Buck, 1:48:48.040 --> 1:48:50.920 I've been listening to Shields High podcast. But to be honest, 1:48:50.960 --> 1:48:53.839 I'm a person that learns better by reading literature myself. 1:48:54.560 --> 1:48:56.360 Is this all from a book that I can get 1:48:56.439 --> 1:49:01.280 my hands on? Uh? Well, Jessica, not really. It's my 1:49:02.360 --> 1:49:06.439 stream of consciousness about the different historical periods and and 1:49:06.560 --> 1:49:09.280 incidents that I'm talking to you about. I can give 1:49:09.360 --> 1:49:13.000 you some books to read that touch on the subject matter, 1:49:13.040 --> 1:49:15.240 and I could put that maybe up on Facebook as 1:49:15.280 --> 1:49:17.280 a response to you and everyone else can see it 1:49:17.360 --> 1:49:22.320 as well. I am very uh well, I'm I'm very 1:49:22.360 --> 1:49:25.519 fond of some of the works of Roger Crowley. He 1:49:25.640 --> 1:49:29.479 wrote a book on called Empire of the Seas, which 1:49:29.560 --> 1:49:32.400 was very good about the Ottoman advance across the Mediterranean. 1:49:32.760 --> 1:49:35.280 He also wrote a book called fourteen fifty three specifically 1:49:35.280 --> 1:49:38.280 about the fall of Constantinople. That's very good. A lot 1:49:38.360 --> 1:49:45.800 of my Crusades reading is actually a compilation of contemporary chroniclers, 1:49:45.960 --> 1:49:50.120 so that's more like a compendium of sources, you know, Folkler, 1:49:50.280 --> 1:49:54.080 of of Shart and uh other different other, other different, 1:49:54.360 --> 1:49:57.519 other people that were writing about it from the time period. 1:49:58.520 --> 1:50:00.560 So I don't have a book for you, but I 1:50:00.640 --> 1:50:03.760 can tell you that there are books that go into it. 1:50:04.080 --> 1:50:07.720 And the first two shows were scripted, and then in 1:50:07.800 --> 1:50:10.400 response to comments from all of you after that, I said, 1:50:10.400 --> 1:50:11.800 all right, I'm not gonna be a script anymore. I'm 1:50:11.840 --> 1:50:13.800 just gonna kind of go and talk about it. And 1:50:13.920 --> 1:50:16.080 that seems to be working pretty well. Some of you 1:50:16.160 --> 1:50:19.160 seem to think that's a more stylistically, that's a better choice. 1:50:19.200 --> 1:50:23.400 So that's where we've been doing the Shields High. Let's 1:50:23.400 --> 1:50:29.080 see we get next. Um william writes the milk carton, 1:50:29.120 --> 1:50:31.519 the milk in cartons and all the cocoa packages I 1:50:31.560 --> 1:50:34.120 could get from m R. E. S. I mixed those 1:50:34.200 --> 1:50:38.240 with the coffee packs three years in Iraq. I love 1:50:38.280 --> 1:50:40.400 your Shields High episodes, but I understand the research and 1:50:40.479 --> 1:50:42.800 hard work. Maybe you should quit the podcast and make 1:50:42.880 --> 1:50:46.960 some nat GEO type TV episodes. Dream big, Buck, William William, 1:50:47.000 --> 1:50:48.640 I would love to do that. Maybe somebody should just 1:50:48.720 --> 1:50:52.000 come along and, you know, fund my my project. I 1:50:52.080 --> 1:50:56.479 mean the I think that a a TV series on 1:50:56.880 --> 1:50:59.439 La Panto would be really awesome, and I've said that before. 1:51:00.439 --> 1:51:02.680 Malta would be really cool too, because it it does 1:51:02.920 --> 1:51:04.720 it actually be a good movie. I think it would 1:51:04.720 --> 1:51:09.720 be a good movie in the epic cinematic genre. But 1:51:10.439 --> 1:51:14.120 it probably costs a lot of money, so uh, Damnian. 1:51:14.520 --> 1:51:19.439 Next up on roll call, Buck, have you ever thought 1:51:19.520 --> 1:51:22.479 about live streaming the show on a platform like YouTube 1:51:22.560 --> 1:51:25.200 or Facebook Live? As always, thanks to your service to 1:51:25.280 --> 1:51:28.280 our country and Shields High, Damian, Yes, We've thought about it, 1:51:28.400 --> 1:51:32.240 and yes, we are going to put something together where 1:51:32.280 --> 1:51:34.320 we're gonna be live streaming at some point in the 1:51:34.400 --> 1:51:37.840 future a portion of the radio show, if not all 1:51:38.000 --> 1:51:42.000 of the radio show. So the answer your question is, yes, 1:51:42.600 --> 1:51:44.920 we don't have it up yet. Facebook Live would be 1:51:44.920 --> 1:51:46.800 a lot of fun. I kind of like the idea though, 1:51:46.920 --> 1:51:48.880 of having something that's up on buck sex and dot 1:51:48.920 --> 1:51:51.960 com that's specific to the team, And I'd like to 1:51:52.040 --> 1:51:54.960 get away from relying on some of these third party 1:51:55.120 --> 1:51:59.920 social media platforms because I'm I'm losing faith in truck 1:52:00.040 --> 1:52:02.439 Us that they're well, I'm losing faith that they can 1:52:02.520 --> 1:52:08.280 be trusted. How about that? Uh next up here? Um, Tyler? 1:52:08.800 --> 1:52:10.760 Oh no, Tyler, we did that one yesterday. See I 1:52:10.840 --> 1:52:14.639 I I remember uh Doug Wright said, hey Buck while 1:52:14.680 --> 1:52:17.280 watching an old favorite. This scene stood out as a 1:52:17.320 --> 1:52:20.640 sum total of what we see from the Democrats resistance 1:52:20.840 --> 1:52:25.200 mindset for the past year. Oh it's Monty Python, She's 1:52:25.200 --> 1:52:27.600 a witch. I know that sketch. That's I kind of 1:52:27.680 --> 1:52:31.000 remember that one. I think. Uh, let's see who's next 1:52:31.120 --> 1:52:33.720 up on the list. Michelle says Trey Gaudy said from 1:52:33.760 --> 1:52:35.639 the start that he only spent x number of years 1:52:36.400 --> 1:52:38.400 in office. I don't believe there's any more to it 1:52:38.479 --> 1:52:42.640 than that. Uh, shields high. Well, Michelle, you may very 1:52:42.680 --> 1:52:44.960 well be right. Uh, I don't you know. I don't know. 1:52:45.400 --> 1:52:48.400 And while I do, it apparently not a particularly accurate 1:52:48.880 --> 1:52:52.120 impression of Trey Goudy. It is with It is a 1:52:52.520 --> 1:52:54.880 an impression done with fondness. I think that he's or 1:52:54.960 --> 1:52:57.960 not fondness. I don't know him, but you know, respectfully, 1:52:58.000 --> 1:53:00.800 i'm laughing with Trey. I'm not laughing at Trey, but 1:53:01.000 --> 1:53:03.960 I do think he'd be a very interesting pick for 1:53:04.120 --> 1:53:07.519 an administration. He certainly has the background, he's got the chops, 1:53:07.680 --> 1:53:12.680 as they say, to take a senior administration post. By 1:53:12.720 --> 1:53:15.240 the way, don't let me forget producer Mike that we 1:53:15.360 --> 1:53:18.320 need to get some of the emails going from official 1:53:18.400 --> 1:53:20.640 team buck at gmail dot com. I don't want to 1:53:20.720 --> 1:53:23.760 just be on the Facebook here, speaking of letting these 1:53:24.160 --> 1:53:29.000 platforms dominate everything that we're doing, which is increasingly the 1:53:29.120 --> 1:53:31.599 case all the time. Now. He got all this Facebook stuff, 1:53:31.640 --> 1:53:34.280 and I keep looking into I keep seeing these articles 1:53:34.320 --> 1:53:37.400 where they're saying, you know, there, it's like rewiring our brains, 1:53:37.479 --> 1:53:39.800 and yeah, it needs to we need to take of 1:53:39.880 --> 1:53:42.680 social media like TV. You wouldn't watch TV and three 1:53:42.760 --> 1:53:45.400 minute increments all day long. And that's the way you 1:53:45.439 --> 1:53:47.160 should a little bit of social media and then put 1:53:47.240 --> 1:53:48.760 it down, right, a little bit of social media and 1:53:48.800 --> 1:53:53.439 then put it down. Not a constant. Uh, it's like 1:53:53.479 --> 1:53:57.800 a slow rolling binge of just social media all the time, Ken, 1:53:57.960 --> 1:53:59.960 next one here, Buck. The whole issue is not about 1:54:00.040 --> 1:54:03.439 Trump being president. It's about Hillary not being president. Any 1:54:03.520 --> 1:54:06.240 other Republican candidate would have seen in the same position, 1:54:06.320 --> 1:54:08.080 and the fires of warrant would have been against their 1:54:08.160 --> 1:54:12.439 campaign manager. Your thoughts, Oh, you know, Ken, I don't 1:54:12.479 --> 1:54:15.200 think so, because I mean, look, I can't prove that 1:54:15.280 --> 1:54:17.439 you're wrong, because we don't know. We can't prove a 1:54:17.479 --> 1:54:20.679 negative here, can't go back and change history. But because 1:54:20.720 --> 1:54:23.000 of some of the associates that Trump had around him, 1:54:23.560 --> 1:54:25.240 I think that there's a case to be made that 1:54:25.439 --> 1:54:29.000 there was greater susceptibility because of manaforts and the like 1:54:29.280 --> 1:54:35.160 to the kinds of discretionary abuses at FBI and d 1:54:35.240 --> 1:54:37.800 o J. And I just realized we're closing up the 1:54:37.880 --> 1:54:41.320 shop here at the Freedom Hut for today. Freestyle Friday 1:54:41.440 --> 1:54:43.200 is tomorrow. Shields High
