1
00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:03,840
Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome to the Tutor Dixon Podcast. Today we

2
00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:09,440
Speaker 1: are going to say talk about all things Trump court cases.

3
00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:12,840
Speaker 1: There's so many, which is crazy, and I think we've

4
00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:15,240
Speaker 1: all kind of watched this from the sidelines and said,

5
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:19,560
Speaker 1: this is a ridiculous political attack, and for the most part,

6
00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:23,440
Speaker 1: those of us who are looking objectively at this can

7
00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:26,200
Speaker 1: see exactly what's going on. I think it's hilarious to

8
00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:29,360
Speaker 1: kind of watch the leftist media go after him. And

9
00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:33,160
Speaker 1: I just have to say I have been watching what's

10
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:36,040
Speaker 1: gone on with this case in New York and the

11
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:39,440
Speaker 1: one day when they think that Lakeisha James is going

12
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:43,440
Speaker 1: to go take all of Trump's property, Jen Saki is

13
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:46,600
Speaker 1: like giddy about it. She's like, today is an exciting day.

14
00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 1: I think we're all kind of excited to see what's

15
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:51,320
Speaker 1: going to happen. And then all of a sudden everything changes.

16
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:54,840
Speaker 1: The judgment gets slashed. He's like, I'm paying with cash.

17
00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:57,480
Speaker 1: Everybody sees that meme where the sunglasses come down over

18
00:00:57,520 --> 00:00:59,720
Speaker 1: his eyes and they're like, yeah, that's right. He's like

19
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 1: totally dunking on the leftist media. The next day, Jen

20
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:06,640
Speaker 1: Saki comes out and she's like, there is a two

21
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:10,920
Speaker 1: tiered justice system, which we've all kind of enjoyed. But

22
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:15,600
Speaker 1: today I have with me President Trump's attorney and candidate

23
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:19,000
Speaker 1: for Missouri Attorney General, Will Sharf. Well, thank you so

24
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 1: much for joining me. We want to get into all

25
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:21,920
Speaker 1: of this stuff.

26
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:23,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, it's really great to be with you.

27
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:24,920
Speaker 2: Thanks so much for having me on.

28
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:28,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's been, I means as stressful as this has

29
00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 1: to be. I think that from especially if you're a

30
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 1: Republican and you're watching this, it has been so interesting

31
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 1: to see Donald Trump kind of rise from all of

32
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:43,080
Speaker 1: these cases, especially this latest one where they were all

33
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:47,440
Speaker 1: sure that they had him, and watching these people over

34
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:49,720
Speaker 1: and over again, you could like go through the leftist

35
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 1: media where they're like, turns out Trump is broke, turns

36
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 1: out Trump is broke. Turns out Trump is broke, and

37
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 1: we're all going, I'm sorry, can you just pull out

38
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 1: a half a billion dollars out of your wallet?

39
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 3: No, he's not broken.

40
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 1: Then X hits our true social hits, and we start

41
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 1: seeing that everybody on X is talking about home. Now

42
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:12,840
Speaker 1: he's one of the five hundred richest men in the world,

43
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:16,560
Speaker 1: and we're all kind of like, wow, he rises again.

44
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:20,880
Speaker 1: So from your perspective. Obviously, we're watching this, you're living this.

45
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:22,240
Speaker 3: What is this like?

46
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's kind of crazy. We were sort

47
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 2: of staring into the ABYSS with this bail issue or

48
00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:30,799
Speaker 2: this bond issue in New York at the start of

49
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:34,160
Speaker 2: the week, and then we want to resounding victory from

50
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:36,920
Speaker 2: the New York Appellat Division slashing the bond in half,

51
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,320
Speaker 2: staying execution of some of the more extreme parts of

52
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 2: that judgment there, and now we're off to the races.

53
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:45,600
Speaker 2: We're going to appeal that massive judgment in New York.

54
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 2: I think we have very strong grounds for appeal, and

55
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 2: I think we're going to win. But you sort of

56
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 2: really hit the nail on the head with a very

57
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:57,960
Speaker 2: interesting point, which is that the left has time and

58
00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:01,640
Speaker 2: time again, as each of these new has come out,

59
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:05,000
Speaker 2: as each new indictment has been issued, We've heard from

60
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:06,960
Speaker 2: the left over and over again, you know, this is

61
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 2: going to be the case that finally brings down Donald Trump,

62
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,240
Speaker 2: and this is going to be the moment when they

63
00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:14,520
Speaker 2: seize his towers and send him to prison and all

64
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:17,280
Speaker 2: this other stuff. And what's happened time and time again

65
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 2: is these cases aren't worth the paper that they're printed on.

66
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 2: They all have very serious legal deficiencies, factual deficiencies. And

67
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 2: as we've fought back harder and harder and harder in court,

68
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:31,679
Speaker 2: we've started winning more and more and more. We saw

69
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,080
Speaker 2: that with a Colorado ballot access case in front of

70
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 2: the Supreme Court, the Left was breathlessly covering like, we're

71
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:38,920
Speaker 2: going to kick him off the ballot, and he's an

72
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 2: insurrectionist and all this other garbage. We took it to

73
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 2: the US Supreme Court and one nine to nothing. So

74
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 2: we're hoping to rack up some more wins in the

75
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 2: weeks and months ahead. We need to, as President Trump

76
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:51,840
Speaker 2: would say, keep on winning and winning and winning. But

77
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 2: so far, it's just been a really interesting process to

78
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 2: see how the media coverage and the left's reaction to

79
00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 2: all these cases has been so divorced from reality.

80
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 1: And I think it's important that you bringing up the

81
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,960
Speaker 1: Colorado case is interesting to me because we need to

82
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 1: take note now of all of these secretaries of State,

83
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 1: these clerics who have said, we have got to for

84
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 1: the safety of the American public, for the safety of democracy,

85
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 1: we've got to kick him off the ballot, which is

86
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 1: like such an oxymoron. How can you possibly say you're

87
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,200
Speaker 1: going to kick somebody off the ballot and that is

88
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:29,280
Speaker 1: securing democracy? And so I say, these people should not

89
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 1: be able to get away with this because you've got

90
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 1: people Colorado, Michigan, Jocelyn Benson. I mean, she's going to

91
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:38,560
Speaker 1: be out there with Hillary Clinton today talking about this stuff.

92
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 1: You've got these people who are in power in elections

93
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 1: and they're making choices for us. They're now going to

94
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 1: run for a higher office. Shouldn't we be holding them accountable?

95
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean one of the most outrageous ones was

96
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:56,360
Speaker 2: was Shenna Bellow's the Secretary of State of Maine. There

97
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,720
Speaker 2: was no judicial process in Maine. Shenna Bellows, who lost,

98
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 2: by the way to Susan Collins in a Senate race

99
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,599
Speaker 2: there by about thirty points. I mean, she's basically just

100
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,839
Speaker 2: a washed up political hack. She just decided to kick

101
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 2: President Trump off the ballot. I mean, these people think

102
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 2: that they are the absolute arbiters of truth and justice

103
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:18,920
Speaker 2: and whatever, and they're doing real damage to our constitutional

104
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 2: republic with each of these actions. The idea that you

105
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 2: would strip President Trump of his constitutional right to run

106
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:29,119
Speaker 2: for office, the constitutional right of every American to vote

107
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,039
Speaker 2: for a presidential candidate of their choice. It's just totally

108
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:34,479
Speaker 2: beyond the pale. And I think you're absolutely right. People

109
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:37,160
Speaker 2: need to be held accountable for what they're doing. Well.

110
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,120
Speaker 1: I think that as we watch this, the support that

111
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 1: he's received through this, which I think is also just

112
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 1: hilarious when you look at what they've done, where they've

113
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,640
Speaker 1: tried to chip away at his base and they've added

114
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 1: and added and added, because no matter who this is,

115
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 1: this could be you, This could be the next person

116
00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 1: that runs for office. And I think everybody he thinks, man,

117
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 1: this could be my kid. And you always have that

118
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:07,800
Speaker 1: sort of when you have your first child or your

119
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,120
Speaker 1: last child. You look at your kids and you're like,

120
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:12,240
Speaker 1: maybe one of these is going to be the next president.

121
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:15,680
Speaker 1: As we watch this, because it is so personal and

122
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,159
Speaker 1: because it could be any one of our family members.

123
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:20,680
Speaker 1: That's why I think the support has come out for

124
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 1: him so strong, because people go, well, wait a minute,

125
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:26,040
Speaker 1: if they can do this to him, who's going to run?

126
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 1: Because who wants to be financially destroyed and have their

127
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 1: life roped from them?

128
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:33,840
Speaker 2: Yeah? I mean what the left is basically saying, now

129
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 2: what Joe Biden and his allies are saying is that

130
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 2: if you stand up against us, if you oppose leftism,

131
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:43,719
Speaker 2: if you stand up for conservative principles and conservative values,

132
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,360
Speaker 2: we can try to throw you in prison. We can

133
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:49,720
Speaker 2: try to take away every dollar you've ever earned in

134
00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:53,000
Speaker 2: your entire life. We can drag you and those close

135
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:56,119
Speaker 2: to you through court case after court case after court case.

136
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 2: And I think the pain is the point that the putting,

137
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:04,120
Speaker 2: putting President Trump through this pain, making him fight back

138
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:07,560
Speaker 2: on all these different fronts, making him spend time and

139
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 2: energy and effort just defending himself in court. That's really

140
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 2: their objective here. And look, you know, I'm a former

141
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,880
Speaker 2: federal prosecutor. I was a federal violent crime prosecutor in

142
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 2: Saint Louis. We were trained at DOJ. I mean this

143
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 2: is ancient history now, but we were trained that prosecutions

144
00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 2: are never supposed to be political. They're never even supposed

145
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:30,440
Speaker 2: to look political. The notion of a political prosecution is

146
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 2: just deeply corrosive to our Constitution, to the rule of law,

147
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:38,040
Speaker 2: to the separation of powers. Well, the last poll I

148
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:41,160
Speaker 2: saw shows that seventy five eighty percent of Americans think

149
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 2: these prosecutions of Trump are politically motivated. So I think

150
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 2: this really strung.

151
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:48,120
Speaker 3: These people ran on it.

152
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:50,480
Speaker 2: It's crazy, Biden said openly, you know, I'm going to

153
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 2: basically use the courts to prevent Trump from becoming president again.

154
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 2: It's just it's outrageous and despicable, and I think fortunately

155
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,680
Speaker 2: the American people are waking up to it, right.

156
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,840
Speaker 1: I mean him, You've got Letitia James, Who've got Fannie Willis.

157
00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 1: All of these people were out there saying, don't worry,

158
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:08,560
Speaker 1: if you liked me, I will take Trump down. And

159
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:12,000
Speaker 1: to me, I just can't imagine a world where people

160
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:14,960
Speaker 1: wouldn't come out and say okay to avoid this, to

161
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:19,440
Speaker 1: avoid this being a president and then continuing to happen.

162
00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 1: And like I said, most people know someone who has

163
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 1: run for office, whether it is county commission or governor

164
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:27,120
Speaker 1: or president.

165
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 3: People know folks that want to serve.

166
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 1: We've always seen it as serving the people, and yet

167
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 1: now it has become a if you try to go

168
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 1: against the leftist narrative, we will destroy you. And I

169
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 1: mean really, having run for office myself, the way they

170
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:49,200
Speaker 1: destroy you is just it's so nasty.

171
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:50,839
Speaker 3: But this is a new level.

172
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,360
Speaker 1: So take us through kind of the timeline of what

173
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,640
Speaker 1: we're expecting, because I think people are very confused about

174
00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:59,640
Speaker 1: what they're looking at. We thought things were changing in Georgia.

175
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:03,000
Speaker 1: Now Fannie Willis is still there. I heard someone talking

176
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,720
Speaker 1: this morning saying, well, we'd still like her to not

177
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:08,760
Speaker 1: prosecute this case because we think anybody else would look

178
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:11,160
Speaker 1: at it and say we can't even bring it. So

179
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:13,840
Speaker 1: take us on the timeline of what we're expecting.

180
00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 2: Sure, well, I'll start with Georgia because that's where you

181
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:23,120
Speaker 2: left off. The judge down there, Judge McAfee disqualified Nathan Wade,

182
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:27,280
Speaker 2: the special prosecutor, essentially kicked him off the case, allowed

183
00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 2: Fannie Willis to remain on the case, but then certified

184
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 2: our appeal on that issue. So we're currently appealing to

185
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:37,280
Speaker 2: the Georgia Appellate courts issues of Fannie Willis's disqualification. I'd

186
00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:40,560
Speaker 2: also say that it's pretty clear that Fannie Willis perjured

187
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 2: herself numerous times on the stand in that case. She

188
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:48,400
Speaker 2: faces very very real criminal jeopardy I believe going forward.

189
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 2: I mean, that case has turned into an absolute farce,

190
00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:55,719
Speaker 2: and fortunately, I think it's looking increasingly unlikely that that

191
00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 2: case comes to trial before the election in twenty twenty four.

192
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 2: It's you know again. When that case was first announced,

193
00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 2: the leftist media breathlessly covered it, said this will be

194
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:08,560
Speaker 2: the case that'll bring down Donald Trump. What we've seen

195
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:11,720
Speaker 2: since then is just a joke, a mockery of justice

196
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:14,800
Speaker 2: with the way that Fannie Willis and her lover slash

197
00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:19,200
Speaker 2: special prosecutor handled things. The other big case sort of

198
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 2: on the horizon right now, April fifteenth, we go to

199
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:26,719
Speaker 2: trial with Alvin Bragg's prosecution in New York. That's the

200
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 2: Soros funded New York DA who's prosecuting President Trump for

201
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:37,680
Speaker 2: alleged business records violations back in twenty seventeen. A lot

202
00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 2: of people have said that that case is the weakest

203
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:43,480
Speaker 2: of the four criminal cases. It does appear set for trial, though,

204
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:46,160
Speaker 2: so we expected a six week trial in New York

205
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:49,960
Speaker 2: beginning in mid April, and that's the next big step

206
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 2: for our legal team.

207
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 1: Let's take a quick commercial break. We'll continue next on

208
00:10:54,320 --> 00:11:01,080
Speaker 1: a Tutor Dixon podcast. As we look look at these cases.

209
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 1: You talk about these criminal cases, and I think some

210
00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 1: of us are going, did he actually commit any type

211
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:09,760
Speaker 1: of a crime here?

212
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:13,400
Speaker 3: And why are they bringing these things up now?

213
00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:16,520
Speaker 1: The timing of all of this is obviously very suspicious,

214
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:18,400
Speaker 1: which is why most of us look at this and

215
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:22,400
Speaker 1: say these are political prosecutions. And I would say the

216
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:26,079
Speaker 1: same thing about Letitia James. When I look at that case,

217
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,680
Speaker 1: I'm like, wait a minute. If he was causing so

218
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:32,760
Speaker 1: much damage to banks, to people in New York, why

219
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:33,480
Speaker 1: now why?

220
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:36,120
Speaker 3: You know he's been doing business there since he was

221
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:40,040
Speaker 3: a youngster, you know, why now why go after this now?

222
00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 2: Well, and with the New York a g case, you

223
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,640
Speaker 2: know there's there was no fraud and there was no victim,

224
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,840
Speaker 2: and yet he's on the hook presently. We're fighting it, obviously,

225
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,280
Speaker 2: but he's on the hook for a four hundred four

226
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 2: hundred plus million dollar verdict for doing nothing wrong. It's

227
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:57,360
Speaker 2: the same in this New York criminal case that's about

228
00:11:57,400 --> 00:11:59,040
Speaker 2: to go to trial. And I need to be a

229
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,560
Speaker 2: little bit careful about what I say because they imposed

230
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 2: the gag order on President Trump and on all of us.

231
00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 2: I'm a little bit limited in what I can say there.

232
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:13,240
Speaker 2: But it relates to President Trump recorded as legal retainer

233
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 2: payments on his personal business records, payments that he made

234
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,720
Speaker 2: to one of his lawyers, Michael Cohen, And they're saying

235
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 2: that somehow that amounted to business records fraud. It's worth

236
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:27,560
Speaker 2: noting I can't speak about Michael Cohen's involvement in this

237
00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 2: case in particular, but he is going to be probably

238
00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 2: the star witness, and he's been found by numerous courts

239
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,560
Speaker 2: who have committed perjury and other contexts. So we'll see

240
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 2: how that plays out. But again, this is a case

241
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:46,200
Speaker 2: where Alvin Bragg brought this what I think is just

242
00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 2: a crazy indictment charging business records frauds because President Trump

243
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,920
Speaker 2: marked off on his own personal business records payments to

244
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 2: his lawyer as legal retainer payments. This is a case

245
00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 2: that the Biden Department of Justice, the Federal the Federal

246
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 2: Election Commission, everyone else who looked at the facts here

247
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:06,920
Speaker 2: and who had the opportunity to prosecute it, including again

248
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 2: the Biden Department of Justice, passed on prosecuting it. But

249
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,199
Speaker 2: we have a far left DA in New York, a

250
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:16,560
Speaker 2: Soros funded DA in New York, who brought this case.

251
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:19,439
Speaker 2: And I think the reason for that is election interference.

252
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:22,120
Speaker 2: And we're certainly going to defend President Trump vigorously when

253
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:25,040
Speaker 2: that gets to trial, and we're hopeful that we win it.

254
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:28,680
Speaker 1: So what do you expect to come out of the

255
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:31,719
Speaker 1: Supreme Court. It looks like on April twenty fifth, they

256
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 1: will hear arguments over whether or not the federal charges

257
00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:39,880
Speaker 1: against Donald Trump can be dismissed. Those charges for twenty

258
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:42,959
Speaker 1: twenty trying to overturn the election, I think, is what

259
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:43,600
Speaker 1: they're calling it.

260
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:48,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, it's not really about that. It's the DC

261
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:52,080
Speaker 2: criminal case relates to actions that President Trump took in

262
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:56,120
Speaker 2: the aftermath of the twenty twenty election to investigate election fraud,

263
00:13:56,720 --> 00:14:00,559
Speaker 2: things like asking his Department of Justice to investigate election fraud,

264
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:03,840
Speaker 2: talking to members of Congress and state officials about his

265
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:07,120
Speaker 2: view of how the twenty twenty election had been fraudulent.

266
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 2: There's nothing criminal there. I think the charges that they've filed,

267
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:16,280
Speaker 2: these sort of broad federal conspiracy charges, are really inapplicable

268
00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:19,120
Speaker 2: to anything they've charged him for. That having been said,

269
00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 2: as you said, on April twenty fifth, will be at

270
00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:27,760
Speaker 2: the US Supreme Court arguing our presidential immunity appeal. We've

271
00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:30,960
Speaker 2: said that these acts that President Trump committed were very

272
00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:35,200
Speaker 2: clearly presidential acts, official acts in office. Again, things like

273
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 2: talking to the Department of Justice instructing them to investigate

274
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:42,280
Speaker 2: election fraud. Those are all core presidential acts. Now, it's

275
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:46,120
Speaker 2: been long recognized that in the civil context, a president

276
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 2: has immunity for after he leaves office for his official acts.

277
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:53,240
Speaker 2: That you can't sue a president because you don't like

278
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:56,120
Speaker 2: the way he did something in office. We believe that

279
00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 2: the text of the Constitution, the structure of the Constitution,

280
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:03,200
Speaker 2: and the long history of case law supports the idea

281
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:07,080
Speaker 2: that president is also criminally immune after he leaves office.

282
00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:10,320
Speaker 2: Not for his private acts, not for taking a bribe

283
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:13,560
Speaker 2: or killing somebody or anything like that, but for his

284
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 2: official acts in office. A president has to have immunity,

285
00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:20,520
Speaker 2: and without immunity, I think the presidency as an institution

286
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 2: is over. President Trump has said this as well. I mean,

287
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:27,080
Speaker 2: you would see every successive president be prosecuted by his

288
00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:29,920
Speaker 2: political opponents as soon as he left office. So this

289
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:33,200
Speaker 2: is a massive case. My colleague John Sour and I

290
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:35,360
Speaker 2: will be arguing it in front of the US Supreme

291
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:38,800
Speaker 2: Court on April twenty fifth, which we're really excited about. Now,

292
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,920
Speaker 2: we expect a ruling from the Court on that issue

293
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:45,760
Speaker 2: by probably mid June, mid to late June. It's important

294
00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:48,320
Speaker 2: to note, though, that while that appeal is pending, the

295
00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:53,200
Speaker 2: DC criminal prosecution cannot proceed, so that case is effectively

296
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:57,760
Speaker 2: stalled until probably late June. And that means the chances

297
00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,400
Speaker 2: of that case getting to trial before election day in

298
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:04,280
Speaker 2: November are very slim at this point in my estimation,

299
00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:05,880
Speaker 2: and I think we're going to win at the Supreme

300
00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:10,360
Speaker 2: Court and really cut out big pieces of that case anyway.

301
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:15,680
Speaker 1: So what is the argument then, that he unlawfully used

302
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:18,440
Speaker 1: his position as president to ask for an investigation.

303
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:25,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, Essentially, what they're saying is that President Trump conspired

304
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:27,840
Speaker 2: with others to deprive Americans of their right to have

305
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:32,880
Speaker 2: their votes counted. He conspired to obstruct the electoral count process.

306
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,240
Speaker 2: The charge there is under a highly controversial statute that

307
00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:40,280
Speaker 2: actually the Supreme Court's currently looking at in a different case.

308
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 2: It's things like that that, taken together, President Trump's actions

309
00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 2: to investigate election fraud in the aftermath of the twenty

310
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 2: twenty election amounted to a conspiracy to deprive Americans of

311
00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:56,360
Speaker 2: their right to have their vote counted, of their right

312
00:16:56,440 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 2: to have the election result be one way or the other.

313
00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:05,080
Speaker 2: And then that he interfered with a congressional process, basically

314
00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:09,800
Speaker 2: with the electoral count. It's worth noting that President Trump

315
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:13,080
Speaker 2: is accused of submitting these alternate slates of electors in

316
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:16,520
Speaker 2: certain states or trying to build these alternate slates of electors.

317
00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:22,040
Speaker 2: That's actually the historical method used to challenge the results

318
00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:26,440
Speaker 2: of presidential elections based on fraud after the certification deadline

319
00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:30,399
Speaker 2: in states passed in eighteen seventy six. For instance, Rutherford B.

320
00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:34,600
Speaker 2: Hayes was actually elected president on the backs of three

321
00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:38,480
Speaker 2: alternate slates of electors submitted by southern states where there

322
00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:42,679
Speaker 2: were real instances of fraud. In nineteen sixty electors, an

323
00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:45,399
Speaker 2: alternate slate of electors from the state of Hawaii was

324
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:48,320
Speaker 2: seated in the electoral count because of fraud in the

325
00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:51,439
Speaker 2: state of Hawaii. So nothing President Trump did here was

326
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:56,680
Speaker 2: historically abnormal. Certainly nothing was illegal. But Jack Smith, the

327
00:17:56,720 --> 00:18:00,119
Speaker 2: Special Council, has tried to string together a case that

328
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:03,040
Speaker 2: every opportunity has tried to rush it to trial. We

329
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:05,880
Speaker 2: believe because he wants to interfere with the twenty twenty

330
00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:08,639
Speaker 2: four election. He wants to force President Trump off the

331
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:10,760
Speaker 2: campaign trail and into a courtroom. And I think that's

332
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:11,560
Speaker 2: just despicable.

333
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 1: Well, and let's talk a little bit about the electors

334
00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:19,000
Speaker 1: because they are actually elected to those positions. It's not

335
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,399
Speaker 1: as though these are just a random group of people.

336
00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:25,919
Speaker 1: They're just the Republican versus Democrat. Is that correct, because

337
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:28,720
Speaker 1: that's because we have the situation in Michigan, and so

338
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:33,200
Speaker 1: these people are they're facing felony charges in the state

339
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,760
Speaker 1: of Michigan because the Attorney general here decided to go

340
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:36,280
Speaker 1: after them.

341
00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:38,720
Speaker 3: But they didn't. They didn't do anything.

342
00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:42,080
Speaker 1: They were there in case there was My understanding, and

343
00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:44,800
Speaker 1: you can correct me if I'm legally wrong on this,

344
00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:48,240
Speaker 1: they were there in case something happened in Michigan where

345
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:50,600
Speaker 1: they said, Okay, there was fraud, we need to put

346
00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:56,040
Speaker 1: in that alternative slate, and they weren't trying to overturn

347
00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:59,240
Speaker 1: it without having that evidence of something had gone wrong.

348
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:02,720
Speaker 2: You know, I think when you look at the historical

349
00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:06,920
Speaker 2: record in states like Michigan, other states, you know, George Arizona,

350
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:09,520
Speaker 2: et cetera. What what President Trump and his team were

351
00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:12,639
Speaker 2: trying to do is simply preserve all of their rights

352
00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,359
Speaker 2: to challenge the election at every stage. And part of

353
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:18,919
Speaker 2: that was having these slates of electors assembled so that

354
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:21,960
Speaker 2: if they could prove up their allegations of election fraud,

355
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:25,600
Speaker 2: they'd have the opportunity to challenge the electoral count to

356
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:28,760
Speaker 2: challenge the seating of electors that they believe had been

357
00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:33,639
Speaker 2: elected through fraud. And again, that's just the historically, historically,

358
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:36,399
Speaker 2: that's the process you used. There's nothing out of the

359
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:39,639
Speaker 2: ordinary about it. I think it's absolutely shameful that we

360
00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:45,159
Speaker 2: have leftist prosecutors going after people whose only alleged crime,

361
00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:47,960
Speaker 2: whose only act was to you know, put their name

362
00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:50,120
Speaker 2: up saying that, well, if there was fraud, I want

363
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:52,679
Speaker 2: to be part of the solution. And that's it's just

364
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:56,639
Speaker 2: it's crazy. It's it's a way of I believe, you know, prosecuting,

365
00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:00,200
Speaker 2: persecuting political dissenters, and I think it's just wrong.

366
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:04,600
Speaker 1: Well, and in Michigan, we're talking about people who are

367
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:07,880
Speaker 1: in there, in some cases in their seventies and eighties,

368
00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:09,600
Speaker 1: who are facing jail time.

369
00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:13,359
Speaker 2: Well, we've seen the same with a lot of these

370
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:16,439
Speaker 2: January sixth cases, where there's some people, you know, on

371
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:19,640
Speaker 2: January sixth who certainly committed crimes. And I don't excuse

372
00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:22,639
Speaker 2: that there are other people, including elderly people who just

373
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:24,960
Speaker 2: sort of showed up at the Capitol, walked in and

374
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,240
Speaker 2: then as soon as they were asked to leave, walked out,

375
00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:29,560
Speaker 2: and some of them are in federal prison today.

376
00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:32,679
Speaker 1: Let's take a quick commercial break. We'll continue next on

377
00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:38,959
Speaker 1: the Tutor Dixon Podcast. I have to say I saw

378
00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:41,520
Speaker 1: the former RNC chair come out and say, well, I

379
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,800
Speaker 1: think that the people who committed violent acts on January

380
00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 1: six should stay in prison, and anybody who is arguing

381
00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:50,600
Speaker 1: that shit I don't agree with. And I've never come

382
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:52,960
Speaker 1: out and publicly stated this. I think the people who

383
00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:56,480
Speaker 1: are arguing are arguing against those folks you're talking about,

384
00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 1: the people that walked in that didn't do anything, that

385
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:02,400
Speaker 1: have suddenly I had years of their lives taken from

386
00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:06,800
Speaker 1: them for being there. Some of them didn't even walk inside.

387
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:09,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, So, I met a guy in Missouri

388
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,480
Speaker 2: and Vernon County, Missouri. I won't use his name because

389
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:16,040
Speaker 2: I haven't asked his family for permission. He walked into

390
00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:20,640
Speaker 2: the capital addressed as George Washington. He didn't break anything,

391
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:24,960
Speaker 2: he didn't attack anybody. He basically just ambled around the

392
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:29,000
Speaker 2: capitol for seventeen minutes. A police officer approached him asked

393
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,760
Speaker 2: him to leave. At that point, he left the capital.

394
00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:35,639
Speaker 2: He's now in federal prison serving a year long federal

395
00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:39,280
Speaker 2: prison sentence. I don't think he committed a crime. I

396
00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:41,879
Speaker 2: don't think you can plausibly say that there was anything

397
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:45,560
Speaker 2: criminal about what he did. And yet the Biden administration

398
00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:49,520
Speaker 2: has been so vigorous about prosecuting these cases, about you know,

399
00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:52,600
Speaker 2: sending swat teams out to arrest people at their homes

400
00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:55,240
Speaker 2: or at their places of work. I think the point

401
00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:58,920
Speaker 2: is really the public message that they're trying to send,

402
00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:01,760
Speaker 2: which is that if you dissent against us, if you

403
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:05,119
Speaker 2: hold different political views, we have the ability to punish you.

404
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:07,840
Speaker 2: So you need to watch yourself. And I think that

405
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:11,199
Speaker 2: it's just again speaking as a former prosecutor, you know,

406
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:15,400
Speaker 2: the power that prosecutors have, the power that law enforcement has,

407
00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,960
Speaker 2: it's an awesome power. I mean I signed warrants against

408
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,199
Speaker 2: you know, drug gangs and that sort of thing, and

409
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:23,800
Speaker 2: then the swat team would take their door the next morning.

410
00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:27,720
Speaker 2: I mean, that's an awesome power. And when it's misused

411
00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:29,680
Speaker 2: the way that I think we've seen time and time

412
00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:32,439
Speaker 2: again with the Biden administration, I mean, that's end of

413
00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:35,960
Speaker 2: the republic type stuff. That's banana republic type stuff. That's

414
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:37,879
Speaker 2: why it's so important. I think that we win in

415
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 2: twenty twenty four, up and down the ballot, and really

416
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:45,000
Speaker 2: repudiate these leftists who feel empowered to, you know, wield

417
00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,720
Speaker 2: the power of government against ordinary American citizens.

418
00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:50,600
Speaker 1: Well, and I think that's the frustration that we see

419
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:53,600
Speaker 1: as we see crime rising, and we see these radical

420
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:58,000
Speaker 1: attorneys general and prosecutors across the country that are going

421
00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:03,119
Speaker 1: after Republicans for things that are not considered crimes. It

422
00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:07,560
Speaker 1: is political prosecution going after these people. They are attacking

423
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:10,960
Speaker 1: them because of their political views. But then, I mean,

424
00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:14,120
Speaker 1: I look at what happened during COVID here in Michigan.

425
00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:18,080
Speaker 1: Our attorney general used her powers to go after businesses.

426
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:21,399
Speaker 1: She used her power. She had a woman who was

427
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:25,720
Speaker 1: a legal immigrant who was just running her restaurant, but

428
00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:29,199
Speaker 1: kept her restaurant open. She had her arrested, taking one

429
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:32,600
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty miles from her home. She was kept

430
00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:36,520
Speaker 1: in jail for two days with chains on. It wasn't

431
00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:39,159
Speaker 1: even like she wasn't just in a jail cell. She

432
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:42,639
Speaker 1: had chains around her waist and her your wrists and

433
00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:46,320
Speaker 1: ankles were in handcuffs attached to these chains. I mean,

434
00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:49,719
Speaker 1: this is like third world stuff that we're talking about

435
00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:53,280
Speaker 1: in the United States of America. This to me is

436
00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:57,800
Speaker 1: a complete overstepping of authority. But this is what they're doing,

437
00:23:57,880 --> 00:23:59,960
Speaker 1: so really quickly before I let you go. I mean,

438
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:04,000
Speaker 1: we've listened to what you've said. It's been very, very

439
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 1: educational to hear what you're talking about. But also you

440
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:09,119
Speaker 1: just sound like you really get it. So tell us

441
00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:11,360
Speaker 1: a little bit about your race. When is it? How

442
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:12,239
Speaker 1: do people help you?

443
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:16,680
Speaker 2: Yes, I'm in my free time. Basically I'm running for.

444
00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:18,280
Speaker 3: A correct how you're doing that?

445
00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:22,000
Speaker 2: But okay, I'm a political outsider. I've never run for

446
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:25,840
Speaker 2: office before. My background is a constitutional attorney. That's the

447
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:28,960
Speaker 2: work I'm doing for President Trump now a former federal

448
00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:32,800
Speaker 2: violent crime prosecutor. During the Trump administration, I worked to

449
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:35,800
Speaker 2: confirm judges and justices. I was on the teams that

450
00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:38,880
Speaker 2: confirmed Brett your work to confirm Brett Kavanaugh, Amy Coney

451
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:42,240
Speaker 2: Barrett to the Supreme Court, worked on lower court confirmations

452
00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:45,120
Speaker 2: around the country. And I've been a conservative activist most

453
00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:48,240
Speaker 2: of my adult life. I think the situation we have

454
00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:51,960
Speaker 2: in Missouri is we just have a political establishment that's

455
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:54,520
Speaker 2: not really answerable to the will of the people, that's

456
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:58,080
Speaker 2: totally in hock to special interests in insiders and lobbyists,

457
00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:01,240
Speaker 2: and I think this cycle, this August, with our Republican primaries,

458
00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:04,200
Speaker 2: we have a once in a generation chance to really

459
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:08,359
Speaker 2: break that. So I'm excited. We have Missouri's fired up

460
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:10,960
Speaker 2: right now. Conservatives all over the state are more fired

461
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:13,800
Speaker 2: up than I've ever seen them before. And the campaign's

462
00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:16,439
Speaker 2: just been an incredible experience for me just getting to

463
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:20,160
Speaker 2: meet awesome conservatives all over Missouri. So we feel really

464
00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:22,400

Speaker 1: Well, we wish you the best of luck because we

468
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:36,200

00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:38,720
Speaker 1: and Memphis seem to be in a battle every year

00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:40,880
Speaker 1: to see which one can be the most violent city

471
00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:42,880

474
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,639
Speaker 2: violent criminals. If you lock up violent criminals, you get

475
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:53,159
Speaker 2: less violent crime. You know who would have imagined that,

476
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:55,880
