Prepare to embrace the 3 00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:15,200 uncomfortable truth, because this program has no time for 4 00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:17,640 comforting lies. Here is civil liberties 5 00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:21,560 enthusiast. 2nd Amendment defender and recovering FBI 6 00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:34,280 agent Kyle Seraphin. Hello my friends, welcome to the 7 00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:36,920 Kyle Serfin Show. Today is Thursday, it is March 8 00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:39,640 the 5th, and I appreciate you guys being along for the ride. 9 00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:42,680 We are going to be talking today about the interesting case of 10 00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:47,120 Christy Noem, who has made a second appearance in front of 11 00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:50,680 our elected representatives to talk about some really troubling 12 00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:52,480 stuff. And I have this kind of 13 00:00:52,480 --> 00:00:56,240 sensation that at least a significant number of the, the, 14 00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:58,720 the high Trump administration are like pirates. 15 00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:02,240 And I have this, this memory, which I'm going to go dig the 16 00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:05,640 clip up for you guys in a second here of a scene from Pirates of 17 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:09,920 the Caribbean where Johnny Depp and the, and his, his buddy, the 18 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:13,800 round faced guy, they're, they're deciding to go and get 19 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:15,120 all the treasure or something like that. 20 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:18,320 And they go, you know, take all what you can get and give 21 00:01:18,320 --> 00:01:20,760 nothing back, you know, And then they have this little clink of 22 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,320 the glasses, which are made out of wood and they drink their 23 00:01:23,320 --> 00:01:25,280 beer. Mr. Gibbs, that's his name. 24 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:29,120 And and then, and then they go and they try to go be pirates. 25 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:31,000 They're gonna and but they're honorable pirates, right? 26 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,440 Do we have honorable pirates that just run this country? 27 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:34,640 Is that what we're dealing with here? 28 00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:37,760 People that are just looking and saying Americans are useful 29 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,600 idiots and they're basically an ATM that we can just write 30 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:42,920 checks out of. We can take everything from 31 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,200 them. And as long as we're the Lords 32 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,960 of the Ashes when everything burns down, then we'd rather 33 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:53,040 have that. That seems to be the case, and 34 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:55,760 there's a story that was written in Pro Publica in November that 35 00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:58,520 I think we covered at the time, and now it's getting coverage in 36 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:00,320 congressional testimony. The funny thing about a way that 37 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:03,720 these stories work is some scandalous thing will happen and 38 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,120 then everybody will go, Oh my God, like, Can you believe that 39 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:07,320 thing? And then they move on to the 40 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:09,400 next thing 'cause we have this sort of goldfish memory. 41 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:11,080 The new story moves real quick. By the way, did you know that 42 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:16,280 Nancy Guthrie still missing, still still not found, mostly 43 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,160 decomposed in the desert somewhere or something like 44 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:20,040 that? Not to be flippant, but that I 45 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:23,320 mean, where did that story go? It was wall to wall Fox News 46 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:25,400 coverage right up until everybody had a freaking war 47 00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:28,280 boner. And so they they they play on 48 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:32,120 this attention span that we move on from so quickly and Christy 49 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:39,160 Noems chaotic, you know, use of of our federal funds is 50 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:43,480 absolutely absurd. And under any other 51 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,760 administration, people would be losing their ever loving minds. 52 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:51,280 But because we've come into this like ultimately highly divided 53 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:55,640 tribal moment where people are they, they, they literally put 54 00:02:55,640 --> 00:02:59,960 their political slogans in their, their bio. 55 00:02:59,960 --> 00:03:02,520 They put it on their head, they put it in their clothing. 56 00:03:02,640 --> 00:03:05,400 They're mad at you if you don't describe yourself by a political 57 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,920 slogan. MAGA make America Great Again 58 00:03:07,920 --> 00:03:10,240 was a slogan that a man ran for office on. 59 00:03:10,640 --> 00:03:12,320 And then you people define themselves that way. 60 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:15,000 Like I'm MAGA, you're not MAGA, you're not MAGA enough. 61 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:18,440 You're too MAGA. Like how about you just be an 62 00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:22,800 American and go maybe an elected official shouldn't send $220 63 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:26,400 million out to do an advertising campaign that comes from our 64 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:28,520 pockets to boost their public image. 65 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:33,440 Because they have this like mis misguided belief that a overly 66 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:39,440 made-up woman with questionable morals and significant amounts 67 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:43,320 of of public expenditures that seem to be beneficial for only 68 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,520 her like that person would make it as a president. 69 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:50,880 We actually have some some good news, at least in the the sense 70 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:53,160 of people understand a little bit more about the mission. 71 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,680 We have a senator that has decided to retire and or not 72 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,640 seek re election Steve Daines up in Montana. 73 00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:05,080 He's 63 years old today and he is a mediocre Liberty scorer. 74 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,880 He has like a mediocre sort of compliance with being an actual 75 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,440 conservative that may actually be appropriate for Montana. 76 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:11,920 When I talk to my buddies that live up there. 77 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:13,960 Yeah, the the statement was something to the effect of is 78 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,200 that Montanans kind of are like, leave us alone. 79 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,640 But they also have kind of like this hippie type mentality about 80 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,600 certain things. So they're not like some staunch 81 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,240 hardcore right wing group, especially considering that they 82 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:25,960 have cities that are very, very left-leaning. 83 00:04:26,840 --> 00:04:29,480 But how about someone who understood the mission? 84 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:33,000 You're 63, you're coming up on 65. 85 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,040 What a great time to just walk away and go do the rest of your 86 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:37,920 thing. You got 13 years in public 87 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:39,880 service. It'll be 1415 by the time it's 88 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:41,080 all said and done. Great. 89 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,760 And then you just step out and you go be a regular person again 90 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:46,400 because it's time to retire. Wouldn't that be nice? 91 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:50,800 So I've got just this mixture of kind of like sloppy, gross 92 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:55,040 pirates who can't wait to take everything we have and, and a 93 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,240 couple of people that understand that it's maybe, you know, 94 00:04:57,280 --> 00:04:59,800 whatever it is, your time is over to, to, to be part of that. 95 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:01,960 You get to go back to being a citizen again. 96 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:05,480 At some point, we will all leave whatever job we have. 97 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,560 We will leave whatever role that we think we occupy. 98 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:13,160 And we will all end up just as regular people who are 99 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,960 underneath the crushing burden of federal government. 100 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,240 This is something I always knew when I worked for the FBI. 101 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,920 And if you guys don't know that if you're a police officer, if 102 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:24,040 you're a firefighter, if you're a paramedic, if you are in the 103 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:28,440 military, if you work in federal law enforcement, state law 104 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:33,240 enforcement, if you extend federal authority from the 105 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:36,960 United States government over your fellow man, that will one 106 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:39,680 day leave. And so if you don't look around 107 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:43,560 and recognize that you are a maybe a person, you're a 108 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,000 husband, you're a wife, you're a sister, you're a brother, you're 109 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:49,560 a family member 1st and you're an American citizen second. 110 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:52,480 That can be taken away, but it's pretty well rooted in for most 111 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,680 people that are Americans, especially if you're listening 112 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:57,280 to this in America, there's a small number of people that live 113 00:05:57,280 --> 00:06:01,840 in outside and then then whatever job you do is a distant 114 00:06:01,840 --> 00:06:05,000 third. Whatever role you occupy is a 115 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:06,360 distant third. That was something that was 116 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:07,920 always right at the forefront of my mind. 117 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:11,120 I was like, I don't want to operate in such a way that I'm 118 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,240 going to live under some tyranny that I'm willing to be part of 119 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:15,800 because one day it'll come back on me. 120 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,160 It'll be revisited on me when I'm just a regular guy again. 121 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:20,120 And it turned out that was a lot faster than I expected. 122 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:22,200 I thought I was going to get 20 years of being a federal agent. 123 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,440 That was not the case. Here I am sitting here, I got 124 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:28,360 six years, but it was always front and front, center. 125 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,080 And it seems to me that these short lived pirate type 126 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:35,200 attitudes, maybe they don't, maybe they don't know that one 127 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,360 day you'll be back underneath the crushing weight and you'll 128 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:40,920 be susceptible to hearings and potentially you'll have to 129 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,280 answer for what you did or you'll just have to live under 130 00:06:43,280 --> 00:06:45,040 people who do exactly what you do. 131 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,080 And how do you, how do you universalize that? 132 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:48,360 It just seems very short sighted to me. 133 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:51,720 So let's, let's get into that just in a second here. 134 00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:55,000 Let's start off by talking about the folks over at Undertac. 135 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:56,240 I haven't heard from them a little bit. 136 00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:58,840 Undertac is a website.

OK, Should we do the pirate 188 00:09:11,780 --> 00:09:13,260 thing first? Just because I'm thinking about 189 00:09:13,260 --> 00:09:14,060 it? I, I think I should. 190 00:09:14,060 --> 00:09:17,540 OK, so let me go grab this clip, which I downloaded, I think, and 191 00:09:17,540 --> 00:09:20,140 then we'll we'll go back. I have another video clip that's 192 00:09:20,140 --> 00:09:24,200 entitled Donald Trump is great. It's the White House spokeslady 193 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:26,080 just saying that Trump is great. I think this should be the 194 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:27,920 pirate clip. We can might even need to be 195 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,360 sized here. Let's let's do that little short 196 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:37,880 scene, give nothing back. OK, So that that that was the 197 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:39,280 scene. This there's like 8 seconds to 198 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:42,000 it. That is the motivation for at 199 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:43,880 least some members of the cabinet who are out there 200 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,040 looking around and saying can we get all the things? 201 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:48,600 Can we take everything from everybody around us? 202 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,080 I don't know, like, again, short sighted, that'd be the nicest 203 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:53,840 way of saying what I'm talking about here. 204 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,120 I don't know how you operate that as a, as a universal 205 00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,160 policy. It doesn't make any sense to me 206 00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:02,920 that you would go out there and look around and say, I 207 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:05,440 understand that everyone's going to do this to me too now that 208 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:08,120 I've done it, but I've got an opportunity, so I'm going to 209 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,320 seize it. There's been these discussions 210 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:12,640 that I've had with some friends too, about about people who make 211 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:16,320 a ton of money, and they do it by being very unscrupulous. 212 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,720 And we look at them and we're like, oh, do they have some 213 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:21,760 special skill? It's like, no, there's special 214 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:27,560 skills called dishonesty. Being highly dishonest is 215 00:10:27,560 --> 00:10:30,120 actually not. It's not a superpower. 216 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,040 It just means that you're a scumbag and the people around 217 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:34,160 you are trying to play by the rules. 218 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:36,120 And you're like, oh, rules are for people who play by them. 219 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:39,240 I don't play by them. It's gross to kind of look at 220 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:39,480 that. Yeah. 221 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:43,840 All right, let's jump into another story that's sort of 222 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:47,000 disappeared for I want to focus on some things as as 223 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:51,320 overwhelmingly the discussion is still about Iran and what we're 224 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:52,600 doing there. And I've got obviously some 225 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:54,360 coverage of that too, because I think we should continue to hear 226 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:57,120 what people are saying. The new words have gone out by 227 00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:00,480 the way, the the new words which it used to be the first one was 228 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:04,960 a nuclear threat and then it was ballistic, short range ballistic 229 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:06,160 missiles. And then it was we need to 230 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:08,560 attack their Navy. And then there was they were 231 00:11:08,560 --> 00:11:10,160 threatening Donald Trump. And then it was back to the 232 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:11,760 nukes and it was back to the Ballistics. 233 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:14,240 And then some of the things, the new kind of talking point the 234 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:18,280 Trump administration has marched out is imminent, OK, imminent 235 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,040 threat. Iran was an imminent threat to 236 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:24,600 us for 47 years. Iran was an imminent threat. 237 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,000 Everybody knew about it. And also people didn't want to 238 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:28,560 do military action. The reason Donald Trump was the 239 00:11:28,560 --> 00:11:30,800 president of peace is because people thought the military 240 00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:32,680 wasn't strong. That's another talking point 241 00:11:32,680 --> 00:11:34,120 that's got marched up. Some of that's kind of weird. 242 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,840 How about some of the promises that people thought were going 243 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,880 to be taken care of? I voted pretty transactionally. 244 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:41,680 I think I've said that to you guys a a number of times. 245 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:47,600 My transactional vote was how does my friend Steve Baker, 246 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,840 who's an investigative journalist, not go to prison? 247 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:55,080 How do people who are J Sixers who just showed up at a rally, a 248 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:58,480 First Amendment protected activity, showed up to protest 249 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:00,280 something they thought was wrong, whether they were correct 250 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:01,960 or not. I tend to believe that there was 251 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:05,000 problems with the 2020 election. There are people that think they 252 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:07,240 have proof. I'm probably not sophisticated 253 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:09,400 enough to analyze it. Many of you are not either. 254 00:12:10,680 --> 00:12:13,880 But I think you should be able to show up and ask for the the 255 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:15,640 government to redress your grievances. 256 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:18,800 And if somebody were to go forward and bring good faith 257 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:21,920 arguments about that, kind of want to see them made whole kind 258 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:23,600 of see want to see them get their lives back. 259 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:25,720 That was what the election was about for a lot of people. 260 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:29,440 Unfortunately, we still have 12 J Sixers that were not pardoned. 261 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:31,520 They were commuted. So they're not in prison. 262 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:33,280 But now they're just screwed on the outside. 263 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:35,720 And Joe Biggs is one of them. Stuart Rhodes is one of them. 264 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:40,080 You know, people that I've personally spoken to who wanted 265 00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:41,280 the same things that everybody else want. 266 00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,720 That was the transactional vote. They're not squared away and 267 00:12:44,680 --> 00:12:49,520 neither is Tina Peters. And it's interesting to me that 268 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:51,920 this popped up in my news feed as I was kind of like looking 269 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:53,360 around. I've got a I've got a 270 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:57,120 congressman from Colorado who even though he's a lefty, he's 271 00:12:57,120 --> 00:12:58,880 making some really good points about Christie Noem. 272 00:12:58,880 --> 00:12:59,960 We'll play those in a little bit here. 273 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,880 What about this situation? There's there's anger and 274 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:05,640 frustration and confusion about whether or not they're going to 275 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:10,720 reduce the sentence for Tina Peters, who, what is she in her 276 00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:13,360 70s at this point that this is a big cause for some of my 277 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:15,600 friends, Joe Altman thinks this is a big deal. 278 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:20,160 I tend to agree that whatever the punishment is in this case, 279 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:22,560 it doesn't fit whatever we believe the crime was there. 280 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,680 This to me also seems like a weaponization of government 281 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:30,880 where you go out there and say, if you're trying in good faith 282 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:33,960 to live in a world where you don't want to see corruption and 283 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,920 you try to say, I think something bad happened. 284 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:39,400 I like to bring it to the public's attention in some way, 285 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:43,240 want to preserve evidence of it. And then the government goes, 286 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,440 well, you're not supposed to talk about that and you know 287 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:47,480 better, so we're going to toss you into prison. 288 00:13:48,680 --> 00:13:51,600 And then, God forbid, the governor of your state decides 289 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:53,960 that maybe this is a little bit unjust for the age and the 290 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:55,640 appropriateness of who this person is. 291 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:58,240 And then that causes a major backlash. 292 00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:00,680 And that's what the story is. This is something that came out 293 00:14:00,680 --> 00:14:04,200 of my NPR reads this morning. So this is a local station, as 294 00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:05,840 far as I can tell, that's out of Colorado. 295 00:14:06,680 --> 00:14:11,000 Colorado Governor Jared Polis latest comments on the prison 296 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:15,040 sentence of Tina Peters are worrisome, his Democratic 297 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:17,560 colleagues said, And that any attempt to commute the former 298 00:14:17,560 --> 00:14:20,200 Mesa County clerk's prison sentence would be, quote, a big 299 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:22,720 mistake as well as a gross injustice. 300 00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:25,720 That does tell you how divided we are in this country right 301 00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,000 now. It tells you a lot about the 302 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,360 division. Colorado Democrats, as well as 303 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,040 the Republican District Attorney who prosecuted Peters, issued a 304 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:36,280 flood of statements in response to poll's latest musings that 305 00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:39,920 included top Democrats vying to replace the term limited 306 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,880 governor. There's a current senator named 307 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:46,040 Michael Bennett and then the attorney general, which is Phil 308 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:49,000 Weiser. All of them say things against 309 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:51,480 Tina Peters because this is a really big deal for them. 310 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:55,960 Remember, we need to have justice it. 311 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:59,280 It should not matter who you are in theory, unless you're on one 312 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:01,000 side, then you don't need to have anything. 313 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:03,400 What do they say? Nobody's above the law and they 314 00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:06,520 believe that right up until they want to do things that are not 315 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:08,720 in comports with that. And then we're supposed to 316 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:09,920 forgot that. Forget they said it. 317 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:14,400 Quote, Tina Peters knowingly broke the law, undermined our 318 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:16,880 elections and was rightfully convicted by a jury of her 319 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:19,160 peers. At a moment like this, we cannot 320 00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:21,880 capitulate to a lawless administration. 321 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:26,080 I guess that's a reference to the Trump administration, which 322 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:28,640 is not lawless as far as I could tell, any more than the previous 323 00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:31,640 administration was lawless. Although we are finding out that 324 00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:34,640 the Trump administration is limited just like every other 325 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,320 that they they don't tend to keep their promises, although 326 00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:39,800 the teams like the left gets a lot more of their promises kept. 327 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:43,320 Weiser, who will prosecute Peters and secured her 328 00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,760 conviction on 7 accounts, said, quote, reducing the sentence of 329 00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:49,600 convicted former clerk Tina Peters for tampering with 330 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:53,280 election equipment would be a grave miscarriage of justice and 331 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:55,720 dangerous for free and fair elections. 332 00:15:55,720 --> 00:16:00,400 Well, there you have it. Bringing forward information to 333 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:02,080 the public and quote UN quote tampering. 334 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:05,120 That's the dangerous thing. Free and fair elections can't 335 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,840 happen. So the free Tina Peters movement 336 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:10,360 still not getting what they asked for. 337 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:12,720 And more importantly, what we've proven is that our federal 338 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:18,600 government can more easily do a rendition of a foreign leader in 339 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:22,120 Venezuela, grab them in the middle of the night with Black 340 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:28,800 Hawk helicopters, or can decapitate A regime 700, you 341 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:34,080 know, 7000 miles away from us, but can't get 1 old lady out of 342 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:37,280 a prison cell in Colorado. And yes, that is our system. 343 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:40,200 It seems like they only care about the way the system works 344 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:42,400 when it's working for them. And I don't know. 345 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:44,640 And the they is like whoever it is that wants it. 346 00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:47,480 This is this is universal. This is not like a left or right 347 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:48,720 issue. This is not a Republican or 348 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:52,280 Democrat issue. This is as long as my team is 349 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:54,760 doing what I want, then everything is good. 350 00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:57,520 And that's when I can invoke things like the Constitution. 351 00:16:57,600 --> 00:16:59,080 That's when I can invoke steaks, rice. 352 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:03,400 But if, God forbid, the things that I want happen to be in 353 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:09,440 conflict with actual principle, then I don't care about that at 354 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:10,720 all. That's just then. 355 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:12,800 Those are just things in my way. I watched the video clip 356 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:14,720 yesterday, which I felt was very telling. 357 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:17,800 And it was a young Indian man who looked like he was in his 358 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:19,560 20s, I don't know, probably early 20s. 359 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:25,480 And he got up in Frisco, TX, which is a very, it's a very up 360 00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:28,280 and coming suburb outside of the, you know, it's in DFW. 361 00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:30,280 It's outside of the Dallas Fort Worth metro area. 362 00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:32,320 It used to be nowhere. Frisco used to be like the 363 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:35,760 boonies when I was a kid growing up, but now it's a place where 364 00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:37,280 there's a ton of people, There's a lot of tech workers. 365 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:38,600 From what I can tell, it's radically changed. 366 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:41,440 I haven't been there in probably 20 years, but having seen 367 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:43,920 friends move through there and having friends that live in that 368 00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:47,320 area, you got a young 20 something year old guy stepped 369 00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:49,880 up in front of the City Council with a bunch of people wearing 370 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:51,280 matching blue shirts to back him up. 371 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:52,560 And of course, the video clip is now gone. 372 00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:53,600 I was going to play it for you guys. 373 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:57,520 And he got up and he made a complaint about the Second 374 00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:00,200 Amendment. You know, that thing that's in 375 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:02,720 the Constitution that in theory, if you become a citizen of this 376 00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:04,960 country or if you actually are born here and raised in, you 377 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:05,920 know, some other kind of tradition. 378 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:08,480 He talked about getting up in his 20s and coming downstairs 379 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:10,640 and hanging out with his parents and having a Saturday morning 380 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:12,040 breakfast. And he was really, really 381 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:15,520 terrified because he heard about the shooting that happened in 382 00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:20,440 Austin last week. And he was really worried that, 383 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:23,800 or I guess last weekend that he was going to know somebody who 384 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,920 had been shot. And then the punchline was that 385 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:28,480 he didn't actually know anybody that was shot. 386 00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:30,840 It was just a fear that he had. So he got up and he read his 387 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:32,640 fear. And because of the way that he 388 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:38,320 felt about something that didn't end up being true, we shouldn't 389 00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:42,640 have guns in Texas. What's amazing is, is that 390 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,320 Democrats love this. People on the left love this. 391 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:49,640 People that want more of whatever the totalitarian type 392 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:52,520 push is want that. And then so you vote for the 393 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:54,680 other side, you go out there and you go, oh, well, can I get a 394 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:56,920 Republican to represent me? And that's going to stand for 395 00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,440 gun rights and it's going to stand for minimal government. 396 00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:02,200 And then they go, no, no, no. We also think the solution is 397 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:03,560 government. We just have a different 398 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:06,400 expectation of the size of the government that we want to go 399 00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:08,680 with. If you guys want a good example 400 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:12,480 of how minimally functional all of this can be and how 401 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:17,040 theatrical it all is, the story of of Samantha slash Nancy 402 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:19,720 Guthrie is worth bringing up. So here I have it. 403 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:23,640 I saw this this morning and it was way, way, way below the fold 404 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:25,840 on ABC News. I scrolled through all the Iran 405 00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:27,320 news. I scrolled through the 406 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:29,520 controversy with Kristi Noem, which we'll get to in a second. 407 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:32,000 And I scrolled through like the things that are being pitched 408 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,400 and they're all the same across all the news networks. 409 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:39,720 ABCCBSNBC, there's a a story about the autopen investigation 410 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:41,160 going away. We'll cover that in a second 411 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:43,240 here from NBC. Couple other people covered it 412 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:45,200 as well. And I kept scrolling, scrolling, 413 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:46,360 scrolling down. And then all of a sudden I saw 414 00:19:46,360 --> 00:19:49,880 this, the Guthrie name, and I went, oh, what about that? 415 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:52,760 Is there an update? There is in fact an update, 416 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:54,920 guys. It was wall to wall on Fox News. 417 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:57,400 Somebody sent me a meme this morning of a dog. 418 00:19:57,400 --> 00:19:59,320 It's a shadow of a dog taking a poop. 419 00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:02,680 You know, so the dog has like that characteristic squat where 420 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:05,800 the back hind quarters are like hunched underneath the squatting 421 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:07,640 rear legs and the front legs are kind of stiff. 422 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:09,480 And then the the nose is up in the air. 423 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:12,480 So you can imagine a dog nose in the air going to the back, tail 424 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:16,040 is up, butt is hunched down and the dog is standing over the top 425 00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:16,880 of a man. And it's. 426 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:20,760 Pooping directly onto, I don't know, his face or mouth, which 427 00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:24,640 is gross, super gross. And then somebody filled in Fox 428 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:27,480 News, which is the dog. And then it was like Trump 429 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:34,000 voters. This is perfect proof of that 430 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:38,160 because Fox News ran Nancy Guthrie like it was the end of 431 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:40,920 the world. Because their audience basically 432 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:45,280 meets the the demographic concerns that a 8 year old woman 433 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:47,280 who got kidnapped like this might be a real thing for you. 434 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:50,600 It's not a real thing. Nancy Guthrie, 84, taken from 435 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:52,880 her home early on February the 1st. 436 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:57,760 We are now March the 5th. We are now five, what, 5 1/2 437 00:20:57,760 --> 00:20:58,800 weeks away? Six weeks away. 438 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:02,040 Here's the headline for those of you who are just listening. 439 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:06,800 Person who left DNA on recovered glove has been cleared. 440 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:12,120 Do you guys, do you remember the excitement? 441 00:21:12,120 --> 00:21:15,720 The I've got the clip somewhere of Jesse Waters going like we've 442 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:20,120 got the backpack and it's a Walmart backpack for $10.84. 443 00:21:20,120 --> 00:21:23,720 The most commonly sold backpack in the largestly distributed 444 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:27,600 store in the United States. Literally anybody anywhere could 445 00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:30,920 have this backpack. And then they were like, we got 446 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:33,080 a glove. It was found 2 miles out in the 447 00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:34,680 desert. Like randomly we found some 448 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:37,120 fucking glove. Excuse me, man, I got to do 449 00:21:37,120 --> 00:21:38,480 better. I did not mean to let an F bomb 450 00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:40,560 slip out there. They found a freaking random 451 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:42,400 glove. And they were like, it kind of 452 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:45,040 looks like a glove that we saw on the video that was not 453 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:47,080 supposed to be saved. But we found out that Google was 454 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,080 saving all the Nest footage. Remember that? 455 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:51,640 Yep. And then they clear it as the 456 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:54,040 search for Nancy Guthrie continues into its second month. 457 00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:57,160 I think it's now in a, you know, you know, when they have those, 458 00:21:57,360 --> 00:22:01,640 those really bad situations where something bad happens and 459 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,200 it's in the water and then somebody's been theoretically 460 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:07,880 like underwater for a day and then they go, unfortunately now, 461 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:09,400 you know, it's like some grave announcer voice. 462 00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:14,200 Unfortunately, now the rescue efforts have turned into a 463 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:17,400 recovery. Pretty sure we're in the body 464 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:19,760 recovery stage of the Nancy Guthrie search now that we're in 465 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:22,040 the second month. One lead that hasn't panned out 466 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:27,280 for investigators is the glove. Shockingly, that was recovered 2 467 00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:29,840 miles away from Nancy Guthrie. I got to put this on the screen. 468 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:32,480 OK, I'm going to highlight it for you. 469 00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:38,560 The lead that didn't pan out was a glove that was found 2 miles 470 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:41,560 away from her home. Imagine where you live just for 471 00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:43,160 funsies. This will tell you the 472 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:46,280 theatricality of all this stuff wherever you live. 473 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:50,680 Imagine the amount of trash that is on the ground if somebody 474 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,440 were to search A2 mile radius of your home. 475 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:54,800 I don't care if you live a rural. 476 00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:56,480 I don't care if you live in the suburbs. 477 00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:59,560 I don't care if you live in the city, imagine what sort of 478 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,920 random garbage is on the ground within two mile. 479 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:04,320 Do you think that we could find a glove? 480 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:07,080 Within 2 miles of your home, I guarantee you, you could find a 481 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:11,360 glove. 2 miles of my house and your house and everybody's house 482 00:23:11,360 --> 00:23:13,360 that lives in America, we could find a glove. 483 00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:20,040 And the fact is that they grabbed this and sent it off to 484 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:23,720 a laboratory and thought we might find the guy who did the 485 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:27,200 thing. It shows you how ridiculous we 486 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:29,240 are. That is, that is a ridiculous 487 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,840 moment. DNA on that glove, traced back 488 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:34,360 to a person who works at a nearby restaurant, had nothing 489 00:23:34,360 --> 00:23:38,080 to do with the case. But it was a Fox News headline. 490 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:41,760 There were endless speculations by former FBI agents who turned 491 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:46,640 out to be complete fools. It was a discussion of how dark 492 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:50,040 and dangerous and desolate the desert. 493 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:55,360 You remember all that, the Jimmy Gags, former New York supervisor 494 00:23:55,360 --> 00:23:58,640 and FBIHRT guy who I don't know how many kidnapping cases he 495 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:03,120 worked, but likely very few. We're just living in such a a 496 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,560 comically stupid moment where people just, they just forget. 497 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:08,200 They don't, they don't have that anymore. 498 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:11,280 I have this clip from Caroline Lovett. 499 00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:13,400 What is Fox News feeding people? They moved on from the glove. 500 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:14,480 They moved on from the Guthrie story. 501 00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:17,320 Anyway, it's, it's a really sad story because the woman is gone 502 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:22,280 and likely forever. I don't know if they'll ever 503 00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:23,680 find her. She's like one of those stories 504 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:26,440 you'll find like 30 years now when I'm, when I'm in my 60s, 505 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:28,440 I'll be reading some news story. They'll be like, oh, they found 506 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:30,800 the, you know, the desiccated remains of Samantha Guthrie. 507 00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:32,920 She actually just fell down a hole in a well that nobody knew 508 00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:34,080 was out there or something. Right. 509 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:36,000 Like we'll find some really sad thing about it. 510 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:38,000 So Fox News has moved on from that. 511 00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:42,800 They've moved on to letting you know that just Donald Trump is 512 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:44,640 super awesome. He's the best. 513 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:48,120 And that's how we're going to justify the new thing. 514 00:24:48,120 --> 00:24:50,280 The new thing is that like there's a war. 515 00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:52,320 It's not our fault that we're at war. 516 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:55,080 It's actually the fault of the people who are being attacked. 517 00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:59,240 The reason why we attacked the people is because we knew that 518 00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:01,600 they were going to attack us. And then we proved it because 519 00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:03,240 after we attacked them, then they did attack us. 520 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:04,720 That's kind of where we're moving. 521 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:08,600 That's kind of the, the circular logic that I guess this 522 00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:11,080 administration thinks the supporters fall behind. 523 00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:12,760 And I guess that's the same group of people that were super 524 00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:15,560 excited about finding a random glove that was in the trash 2 525 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:19,560 miles away from a missing lady's house like 3 weeks after the 526 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:23,560 lady was gone, they found trash. And for no particular reason, 527 00:25:24,360 --> 00:25:27,640 they believe that it might be, it might be related to the case 528 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:30,080 and it turns out it wasn't, which I think if you were going 529 00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:31,240 to put money on it, everybody could decide. 530 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:33,680 Anyway, Donald Trump is awesome. He's done a great job. 531 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:35,440 And anybody who says otherwise is wrong. 532 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:37,040 This is where it gets really hard. 533 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:39,040 And I've actually got a really kind of emotional clip from Alex 534 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:40,200 Jones that I want to share with you guys. 535 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:42,720 If you didn't watch this program yesterday, it's the reason why I 536 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:45,240 like Alex and I'm going to help you guys understand it. 537 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:51,400 Here we go, deep breath. President Trump has done more to 538 00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:55,560 crack down on illegal immigration and to strengthen 539 00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:59,280 our legal immigration system than any president in history. 540 00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:03,400 Several months ago, he announced a travel ban on 19 Third World 541 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:05,880 in failed state countries around the world. 542 00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:08,720 Secretary Gnome announced tonight she's recommending that 543 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:11,920 travel ban widens and covers more countries around the. 544 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:15,800 Globe Special Immigrant Visas, which we know many Afghans have 545 00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,480 used to come into our country. There has been a complete 546 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:20,680 suspension. And pause on all of those. 547 00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:24,280 If you look at the entire visa process in general, we have 548 00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:27,160 greatly strengthened and heightened the vetting process 549 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:30,440 and requirements for that Under Secretary Rubio's leadership at 550 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:33,280 the State Department. And he has used his authority, 551 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:36,840 which is unprecedented, to actually revoke the visas of 552 00:26:36,840 --> 00:26:40,240 many individuals who, yes, came here legally but still pose a 553 00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:41,800 risk to our country and should have. 554 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,800 Never been allowed in in the 1st place and I would just. 555 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:48,520 So all that's really great news. It's all really good to know. 556 00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:52,040 You probably didn't know that, but here we go. 557 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:56,560 Breaking exclusive, breaking exclusive. 558 00:26:56,880 --> 00:27:00,080 One more breaking exclusive. Oh, the House is going to vote 559 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:04,720 again on DHS shutdown because the DHS is not open for 560 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:08,120 business. And it sounds like the things 561 00:27:08,120 --> 00:27:10,840 that Carolyn Levitt was saying are great is that they closed 562 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:12,800 the barn door after all the horses are out. 563 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:14,600 And by the way, everything else that lived in the barn is also 564 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:16,600 out. So we brought in 100,000 565 00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:19,240 Afghans, but we've now changed the vetting process in case a 566 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:23,440 couple others want to come in. And then also, we've really 567 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:26,840 tightened up our visa program. But it turns out that that we 568 00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:29,840 can't even, we can't even get that organization funded. 569 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:33,960 The House is going to vote on a government shutdown bill. 570 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:35,680 They're going to try to open up DHS. 571 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:38,080 Did any of you know that DHS was shut down? 572 00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:40,320 I mean, you did maybe intellectually, but did any of 573 00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:43,760 you actually like go out in your day and go like, oh doggone it, 574 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:49,000 I was going to do fill in the blank activity, but DHS is shut 575 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,520 down so I'm unable. I would love to know if some of 576 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:54,920 you actually experienced the DHS shutdown in any in any way. 577 00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:57,200 Do any of you have an example of that? 578 00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:00,600 If you do, I beg you. I rarely will do this, but I, I 579 00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:02,760 have no examples of it and I can't even figure out what those 580 00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:04,880 examples would look like.

OK, the House is going to vote 592 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:37,680 to send funding after a weeks long impasse and the GOP is the 593 00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:41,400 GOP is stressing the urgency of this Iranian war situation. 594 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:45,600 It's very urgent now that we've started a war that you fund our 595 00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:48,280 Homeland Security program because we're not funded 596 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:50,400 currently and we may have homeland threats. 597 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:52,440 Had a conversation with my buddy George Hill. 598 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:54,960 You guys who listen to this program know George is a former 599 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:57,560 NSA analyst. He was an FBI supervisory 600 00:28:57,560 --> 00:28:59,320 analyst. He also worked in military 601 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:01,440 intelligence for something like 26 years with the Marine Corps 602 00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:04,000 and the Navy. Our discussion was as follows. 603 00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:09,920 If we do not see sleeper cell attacks in the United States 604 00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:13,120 within the next probably 2-3 weeks, then all of the things 605 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:16,360 that were being told to us about the threats, all of the dangers 606 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:20,440 that were being briefed to the American people for literally 2 607 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:24,040 decades, are complete and utter bollocks. 608 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:29,760 They're completely fake and they have to be because this is the 609 00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:32,320 greatest reason to activate some terror cells. 610 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:35,240 This would be you've got a Homeland Security shutdown. 611 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:37,920 You have an ineffective FBI director. 612 00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,720 You have a kick off where now there are missiles that are 613 00:29:41,720 --> 00:29:43,400 flying. And whether you're on one side 614 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:46,520 of the Sunni or the Shia divide, you've got Iran has attacked. 615 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:49,200 And then Iran is now sending stuff all over the place. 616 00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:51,280 And all of it can be directly tied to the president of the 617 00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:53,200 United States who, quote, UN quote, had a feeling, I'm going 618 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:54,560 to play that in a second for you as well. 619 00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:56,560 You had a feeling that something needed to be done. 620 00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:58,480 So he acted whether you like it or not. 621 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:02,080 But if there are no sleeper cell attacks and one random guy from 622 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:04,880 Sudan, which is a pretty weird movement, and a lot of people 623 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:06,680 think that it might be a, you know, false flag. 624 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,120 There's lots of crazy people out there, folks. 625 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:11,760 So whether he's legitimately mentally ill or groomed by the 626 00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:17,840 FBI or whatever, doesn't matter. One guy taking an AR down to 6th 627 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:21,640 St. in Austin, he is not the same as showing the conclusive 628 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:25,360 proof that we have a massive enemy infiltration of jihadi 629 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:28,280 type terrorists hanging out in the United States waiting to 630 00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:30,080 attack us. And if they don't take this 631 00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:32,600 moment, not that I want it, I mean, but I'm just telling you, 632 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:36,160 when I travel now, I travel extra armed compared to my 633 00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:38,000 normal thing. Normally I'm like a handgun guy. 634 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:39,920 I don't need an extra magazine because if I need an extra 635 00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:41,160 magazine, I need a plate carrier. 636 00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:42,800 If I need a plate carrier, I need a rifle. 637 00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:45,440 If I need a rifle and a plate carrier and extra magazines, why 638 00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:47,400 am I going there? Like I'm a free citizen that 639 00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:49,200 doesn't have to go anywhere. I'm not in a war zone. 640 00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:51,160 I don't have anywhere that I have to go. 641 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:53,400 I'll go somewhere different. So I don't do that. 642 00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:54,800 I generally don't carry an extra magazine. 643 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:57,360 For those of you who've never heard this logic, go listen to 644 00:30:57,360 --> 00:31:00,080 DJ Shipley and the podcast he did with Sean Ryan. 645 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:03,720 He makes the argument about the the escalation of your everyday 646 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:06,440 carry, which is something I'm borderline obsessed with, and it 647 00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:10,520 was the most coherent argument. If you're not rolling around 648 00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:13,040 every day with a rifle and a plate carrier and extra 649 00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:14,720 magazines, then you're normal. And that's normal. 650 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:17,040 So fine. But now might be the feud 651 00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:20,080 minutes for the next couple of weeks when there's a window 652 00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:24,080 where you might see this sort of thing be necessary unless it 653 00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:26,920 doesn't happen. And here's the crazy part that 654 00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:30,800 we have to recognize. If we do not have a sleeper cell 655 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:35,480 terror attack that we have been promised forever, and then we've 656 00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:37,960 got to really, really, really seriously ask the question, why 657 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:40,720 have we seated so many civil liberties in this country? 658 00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:46,720 Why have we funded a absolutely massive intelligence capability? 659 00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:51,200 Why are we putting so much money into the federal threat 660 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:54,560 detection systems of the FBI and DHS and so on? 661 00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:57,400 If they're actually turns out when there is an opportunity and 662 00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:01,360 there is no more opportunity that is more like profoundly 663 00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:08,280 motivating then a another war in the Middle East, then ADHS 664 00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:12,840 shutdown, which is a huge chunk of our national security 665 00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:17,960 apparatus. Why, why would why have we 666 00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:20,080 seated all these freedoms? Why have we allowed them to have 667 00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:22,920 like incredible amounts of surveillance on our digital 668 00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:26,120 life? We created SISA under President 669 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:31,160 Trump's first term, right, The Cyber security infrastructure 670 00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:34,080 Security Agency. You know, it's important because 671 00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:35,720 it has the word security in it twice. 672 00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:38,800 SISA which wanted to to regulate your thoughts. 673 00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:40,520 Do you guys remember how crazy some of this stuff was? 674 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:44,360 I'm going back to like in my mind, Trump one point O Biden 675 00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:47,480 now Trump 2 point O. The things that we have ceded in 676 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:50,120 this country for the sake of security is shocking. 677 00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:54,160 And if we don't see a terror attack and I and I and I pray 678 00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:56,800 that we don't actually all it should make everybody do is go, 679 00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:59,760 hey, why in the hell are we actually funding this crap? 680 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:03,320 And again, the DHS is shut down. So they're going to vote today 681 00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:05,600 on legislation to fund DHS. The Republicans are stressing 682 00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:07,880 the urgency because the partial shutdown amid the war. 683 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:09,720 Republicans have pressure Democrats to support an 684 00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:12,400 agreement that appropriators have reached on a bipartisan 685 00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:15,760 basis earlier this year to fund DHS through September. 686 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:17,480 But there was a second fatal shooting. 687 00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:19,960 And so they reacted and they were able to get their base 688 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:22,120 motivated. And so Democrats decided that 689 00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:25,400 funding an organization that took the life of two people 690 00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:27,600 under very different circumstances, one of which 691 00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:29,600 looked like a one was trying to run a guy over or at least could 692 00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:32,040 be easily articulated. The other one of Alex Pretty 693 00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:34,440 looks a lot more suspicious and a lot more problematic. 694 00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:37,280 Still may be justified under the law, which may bother a lot of 695 00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:40,680 you. But the questions still remain. 696 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:42,200 You know, how fast we moved on from that. 697 00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:48,920 That happened in January. We went regular lesbian soccer 698 00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:52,600 moms who are also wild political activists are trying to run over 699 00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:57,120 ICE agents. Then hero VA nurses are carrying 700 00:33:57,120 --> 00:33:59,400 guns to protest, and you don't have a right to carry a gun to a 701 00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:04,160 protest to where is Samantha Guthrie And how can we find out 702 00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:05,920 what the backpack and the glove look like? 703 00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:09,120 And by the way, Google is downloading every single thing 704 00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:11,560 and maintaining a bunch of files on you that come out of your 705 00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:13,960 camera that you're not supposed to be recording to. 706 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:15,600 Don't worry about all that stuff. 707 00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:19,199 The president had a feeling and it was time to go after Iran 708 00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:20,600 because there's no other way about it. 709 00:34:23,159 --> 00:34:26,440 That's where we're at right now. Mike Johnson said that military 710 00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:28,639 action Iran makes it all the more urgent and critical to have 711 00:34:28,639 --> 00:34:30,960 a fully staffed, fully funded Department of Homeland Security 712 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:34,679 across all departments, rather than own the possibility of 713 00:34:34,679 --> 00:34:37,159 defunding some part of government and shrinking the 714 00:34:37,159 --> 00:34:39,679 sides of some part of government when you have an opportunity to 715 00:34:39,679 --> 00:34:43,280 do so. Mike Johnson, Republican Speaker 716 00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:46,520 of the House, has decided that this is a reason why you must 717 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:48,600 fund all of it. And so This is why you'll never 718 00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:52,040 find me as a Republican again. They think that the answer to 719 00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:54,199 the problems with government are just fixing the problems with 720 00:34:54,199 --> 00:34:55,280 government, with more government. 721 00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:56,920 The people on the left think that the problems with 722 00:34:56,920 --> 00:34:59,400 everything can be solved with with more government. 723 00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:02,360 And so they are both on the same Rd. going the same directions. 724 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:04,680 It just turns out that government, you know, the, the, 725 00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:07,200 the pro government forces of Democrats have their foot on the 726 00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:10,800 gas all the way down. And the people that are on the 727 00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:12,480 Republican side, they have it on cruise control. 728 00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:14,040 Their foot is off the gas and they're maintaining the speed 729 00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:15,400 limit, but they're all going the same direction. 730 00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:19,240 It's really hard to find anybody to support when that's the case. 731 00:35:19,240 --> 00:35:22,960 You guys want more excuses? I mean, sorry, You want more 732 00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:25,000 examples? Excuses, examples, excuses. 733 00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:26,520 Let's do that real quick. Here we go. 734 00:35:26,720 --> 00:35:28,960 DOJ, this is the news of the yesterday afternoon. 735 00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:33,760 DOJ quietly shelves the Biden autoped investigation that 736 00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:37,000 Donald Trump demanded. So this is the, this is the 737 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:40,200 pattern. I told you that my sense of 738 00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:43,400 this, this administration which has been very PR focused is that 739 00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:49,120 they will start off with a strong statement like APR, you 740 00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:52,600 know, press release. This is the press release, this 741 00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:56,480 is the public relations attempt to get you to back up what we 742 00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:58,760 say. We are going to hold everyone 743 00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:00,920 accountable. We are going to investigate 744 00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:03,320 these people. We are going to make sure that 745 00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:06,160 nobody is above the law. That's why Tina Peters has to 746 00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:08,600 stay in prison, and that's why everybody who did the Biden auto 747 00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:12,680 pen is going to prison, except nobody's going to prison. 748 00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:14,720 They'll probably have now a really nice congressional 749 00:36:14,720 --> 00:36:16,040 hearing about this. That's the plan. 750 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:17,760 So first announce the investigation. 751 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:19,840 That is the entirety of the outcome. 752 00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:23,400 Quietly close it when no one is looking, and then do a big 753 00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:25,680 hearing about why nobody went to jail about it. 754 00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:28,600 And that is the end result. Is that about right? 755 00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:31,280 I'll go to the chat over here. I'm pretty sure that's the 756 00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:33,960 pattern. Recognize a problem, message 757 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:38,640 strongly that it is a problem, open investigation, and that's 758 00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:41,520 the end of it. Quietly close it and hope no one 759 00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:43,240 notices. And then when anyone notices, 760 00:36:43,240 --> 00:36:45,800 like a headline in NBC that announced congressional hearings 761 00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:47,840 where there is in fact no ability to do anything. 762 00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:50,360 And then when Congress is done, they might even make a referral 763 00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:52,640 for prosecution. Too bad the story is already 764 00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:54,960 closed. Or maybe they open an 765 00:36:54,960 --> 00:36:57,480 investigation, Maybe they announced A reinvestigation and 766 00:36:57,480 --> 00:36:59,440 then we can do the circle jerk all over again in another 767 00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:04,080 circle. Government by this is a great 768 00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:05,880 line in the chat. Government by executive order, 769 00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:09,160 Government by press release. Both of them are awful, it turns 770 00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:11,040 out. Fiat, dictate, etcetera. 771 00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:15,360 So all that's bad. All right, let's do do a couple 772 00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:17,320 things before we get to Christina and let's touch on the 773 00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:18,600 war. By the way, here's another story 774 00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:19,840 from CBS that did the same thing. 775 00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:21,760 The probe on the use of the auto pen is going to be closed, 776 00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:24,760 according to The Who is it? Oh, Jeanine Pirro, federal 777 00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:27,240 prosecutors in Jeanine Pirro's office, the same woman that is 778 00:37:27,240 --> 00:37:31,080 fighting the FOIA that I have with the FBI, the same woman who 779 00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:33,040 is defending the Bureau in multiple places. 780 00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:35,480 You know, the people that were supposed to go in and reform, 781 00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:38,200 they're not doing that. Why would they do that? 782 00:37:38,720 --> 00:37:41,440 Because it's not Trump's DOJ, it's nobody's DOJ. 783 00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:43,920 It's DOJ's DOJ, just like it's the FBI's FBI. 784 00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:45,200 They're not running things either. 785 00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:47,720 I actually saw a really nauseating post the other day on 786 00:37:47,720 --> 00:37:53,520 X from CPAC. The, the like the organization 787 00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:56,360 that puts on the C PAC conference put out a tweet and 788 00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:59,120 it was a video, like a hype video of Cash Patel acting like 789 00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:01,600 he was going to do something and nobody liked it. 790 00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:05,400 Nobody. It had 200 + 1000 views and 791 00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:07,680 three comments and they were all like F Cash Patel. 792 00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:12,560 Two sources confirm the existence of the prom, with one 793 00:38:12,560 --> 00:38:14,800 telling CBS News that the matter has since been closed. 794 00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:17,680 We're talking about the autopen probe because prosecutors were 795 00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:20,720 never actually able to find a legal hook that was able to 796 00:38:20,720 --> 00:38:22,680 pursue the matter further. Let's go a little bit deeper 797 00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:25,160 into this for one second, just so we're all on the same page. 798 00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:28,320 Just because something is wrong doesn't make it illegal. 799 00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:37,760 Wait, just because something is, is immoral, unethical, doesn't 800 00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:41,200 make it illegal. And that's the major problem. 801 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:44,040 The messaging and the PR is always like, this was wrong. 802 00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:46,040 This was treason. And then you look up and you're 803 00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:47,160 like, that's not what treason means. 804 00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:48,520 How many people have told me that? 805 00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:51,240 Joe Biden committed treason. The people in Biden's 806 00:38:51,240 --> 00:38:52,920 administration committed treason. 807 00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:56,120 That former members of the FBI committed treason. 808 00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:59,080 And then nobody recognizes that treason means giving aid and 809 00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:02,200 comfort to a declared enemy during time of war. 810 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:05,480 And the last time we charged it was like in the 1950s because it 811 00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:08,080 was a World War 2 crime when we actually had a declaration of 812 00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:10,760 war. The problem with people being 813 00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:13,320 ignorant of like what it is and using words sort of like in 814 00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:16,760 artfully is that they are also doing the exact same trap. 815 00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:19,800 They're falling into the trap of the PR messaging sounds really 816 00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:21,440 good. And then we think that something 817 00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:23,200 should happen. And the reason they think 818 00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:25,680 something should happen is because they don't even 819 00:39:25,720 --> 00:39:27,040 understand the thing that they're asking for. 820 00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:29,400 There was literally no crime, apparently. 821 00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:30,880 That's why they couldn't prosecute it. 822 00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:34,600 The elements of no crime fit the information they were trying to 823 00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:35,760 do. And by the way, I thought we 824 00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:37,920 were trying to get away from that in this organization, in 825 00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:40,640 this administration. Rather the whole, the whole 826 00:39:41,240 --> 00:39:43,760 point of when we talk about weaponized government is that 827 00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:46,800 the government presupposes that somebody is guilty of something, 828 00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:48,280 you know, in violation of due process. 829 00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:50,880 Then they go out and find a crime to be able to charge them 830 00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:54,480 with in order to get it. I didn't vote for that. 831 00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:56,640 I think that's the scariest thing ever. 832 00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:59,520 And if you live through the last five years, you also should 833 00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:01,200 think it's really scary. It doesn't matter who's in 834 00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:02,200 charge. You shouldn't want that. 835 00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:06,360 All right, let's do some imminent threats, shall we? 836 00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:09,000 The threats are imminent. That's the talking point. 837 00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:11,440 Here's Tom Cotton. He's going to let you know that 838 00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:14,040 for the last 47 years now, you probably didn't know this in the 839 00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:16,360 same way that you didn't know that the DHS was shut down until 840 00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:17,720 I brought it up again. You're like, Oh yeah, yeah. 841 00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:19,280 Got it. The DHS is shut down. 842 00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:20,240 Yeah, the government shutdown thing. 843 00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:23,240 In the same way you didn't recognize DHS was not being 844 00:40:23,240 --> 00:40:26,480 funded, you probably also didn't wake up every single morning for 845 00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:28,720 the last 47 years. Apparently for the entirety of 846 00:40:28,720 --> 00:40:32,400 my entire lifetime, every minute that I was awake, the United 847 00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:36,960 States was under the imminent threat of the regime in Iran. 848 00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:39,360 And so we've always been at war with Iran. 849 00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:45,200 It feels very 1984 ish, Brian. No, not at all. 850 00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:50,160 I thought Secretaries Rubio and Hexa, Chairman Cain and Director 851 00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:53,440 Ratcliffe did a very good job of laying out the intelligence and 852 00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:58,120 the current state of operations. The the simple reality is Iran 853 00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:02,200 has a vast missile arsenal fought that far exceeds the 854 00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:05,800 combined missile defenses of the United States, our Arab friends 855 00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:09,160 and Israel. And it gets much worse every 856 00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:12,600 single month. That is an unacceptable risk for 857 00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:15,720 the United States. It's an existential risk for our 858 00:41:15,720 --> 00:41:19,680 Arab friends in Israel. And it wouldn't get better if we 859 00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:24,440 waited for six or 12 or 18 months to find a more imminent 860 00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:27,520 risk. In fact, Iran has posed an 861 00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:30,800 imminent risk to the United States for 47 years as they've 862 00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:34,880 maimed and killed thousands of Americans without that vast 863 00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:37,240 missile arsenal. The president was right to act 864 00:41:37,240 --> 00:41:41,920 when he did. OK, Rodger, that I think Orwell 865 00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:44,760 had a warning for us. The past was alterable. 866 00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:51,840 The past has never been altered. Oceana was at war with East 867 00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:55,240 Asia. Oceana has always been at war 868 00:41:55,960 --> 00:41:59,240 with East Asia. Kind of the same jam there, 869 00:41:59,240 --> 00:42:00,680 isn't it? And that what Tom Cotton just 870 00:42:00,680 --> 00:42:01,920 said. By the way, did he also mention 871 00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:04,840 that it was about Israel? Got to love that, Got to love 872 00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:07,400 it, got to love that. Israel comes into play and it's 873 00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:09,120 look, I don't need Israel to be involved. 874 00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:10,880 I don't know why they keep saying it, but they keep saying 875 00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:12,480 it. I just found out that the 876 00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:17,000 junior, the junior senator from Montana, which is the place I'd 877 00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:19,200 like to go live. Fortunately they have like some 878 00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:22,400 real sketchy representatives. Steve Daines is their is their 879 00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:25,120 senior senator and he's going to be stepping away and not seeking 880 00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:26,400 re election. So good on him. 881 00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:29,840 Kudos to someone who recognizes I'm in my mid 60s, it's time to 882 00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:33,160 go live the rest of my life. I very much appreciate that even 883 00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:36,640 if his liberty score is a C and he only has like 74% of his 884 00:42:36,640 --> 00:42:38,720 votes go with the conservative side, that's still fine. 885 00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:42,280 The junior senator is a former Navy SEAL who apparently had 886 00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:44,640 like a questionable discharge that happened in Glacier 887 00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:46,240 National Park. There's some stories about that. 888 00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:48,240 Started asking my friends in Montana like, what's up with 889 00:42:48,240 --> 00:42:49,320 this dude? And they're like, Oh yeah, he 890 00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:52,200 had a huge loan grant thing that showed up. 891 00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:54,160 He started a company and immediately had like $100 892 00:42:54,160 --> 00:42:55,680 million infused into his company. 893 00:42:55,680 --> 00:42:57,120 And then they were going to investigate it. 894 00:42:57,120 --> 00:42:59,280 But then they didn't investigate it because he was able to get 895 00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:01,760 marched out by the GOP. And he's got nice hair. 896 00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:04,480 And so he says nice things and he does what they want. 897 00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:07,960 He may or may not have shot himself in the arm when he was 898 00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:11,000 out doing screwing around with a weapon system in Glacier, may or 899 00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:12,400 may not have. I don't have any proof of that. 900 00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:14,840 There's just stories about it. Said some things to Park Rangers 901 00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:16,200 that are questionable and don't really line up. 902 00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:17,640 And then he said some stuff like this. 903 00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:19,040 So remember, it's not about Israel. 904 00:43:19,040 --> 00:43:20,920 Again, I don't need this to be the answer. 905 00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:22,240 They just keep saying this stuff. 906 00:43:22,240 --> 00:43:25,480 And this is the same guy that broke a man's hand yesterday who 907 00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:27,800 was an anti war protester who also probably was doing dumb 908 00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:29,000 things. He was dressed up in his Marine 909 00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:32,200 Corps uniform and he was trying to interrupt a hearing on the 910 00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:35,280 war powers. More on that in a second, But 911 00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:38,880 yeah, so Navy SEAL, former Navy SEAL senator decided to step in 912 00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:40,600 and drag that guy off. Let's see a little bit about who 913 00:43:40,600 --> 00:43:42,440 he is. I'm Tim Sheehy. 914 00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:44,840 I'm a recently elected US senator from the state of 915 00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:47,760 Montana. And I'm here as my first act as 916 00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:50,640 elected senator to show our allies in Israel and the broader 917 00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:53,240 allies throughout the Middle East that America still has a 918 00:43:53,240 --> 00:43:56,400 commitment to this region. And there's no question that 919 00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:59,480 America stands with Israel, stands with the men and women of 920 00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:00,800 Israel. And of course, we'll do 921 00:44:00,800 --> 00:44:03,400 everything we can to make sure the IDF and the men and women, 922 00:44:03,400 --> 00:44:06,360 the IDF had the best gear, intelligence, technology and 923 00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:08,160 support they have to get this done. 924 00:44:08,160 --> 00:44:11,760 And of course, we've seen recent events unfold continually from 925 00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:14,440 the events in Syria to, of course, broader geopolitical 926 00:44:14,440 --> 00:44:17,960 events in the region, that this this is still unfolding. 927 00:44:17,960 --> 00:44:20,240 And the next couple years are going to be very pivotal for the 928 00:44:20,240 --> 00:44:22,040 future of the Middle East and the world. 929 00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:24,800 And we need to make clear that the United States has a strong, 930 00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:28,640 consistent foreign policy that projects strength and projects 931 00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:30,400 the certainty that we're going to be involved here. 932 00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:32,840 We're going to support our allies, most importantly the men 933 00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:35,760 and women of Israel. I'd say finally, Israel's got a 934 00:44:35,760 --> 00:44:39,040 friend, friend in me and America's Got your back 100%. 935 00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:41,600 And most importantly, we've got to bring those hostages home 936 00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:43,320 tomorrow. We're not going to stop. 937 00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:44,920 We're not going to relent until we bring them home. 938 00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:48,160 We're going to have your back 100% as you pursue that, as you 939 00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:50,600 pursue that aim. And it's an hour of the year. 940 00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:58,160 AIPAC brought to you by AIPAC, actually brought to you by 941 00:44:58,160 --> 00:45:01,280 actual AIPAC as their watermark was on their GOP senator joins 942 00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:03,880 the police in ejecting an anti war protester from a Capitol 943 00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:05,680 Hill hearing. This happened yesterday. 944 00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:09,240 Republican Senator Tim Sheehy of Montana, you just saw on the 945 00:45:09,240 --> 00:45:12,000 screen, assisted several police officers and physically ejecting 946 00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:14,920 a man who interrupted a Capitol Hill hearing on Wednesday as he 947 00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:17,680 objected to the US and Israel's war in Iran. 948 00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:21,160 The protester was Brian McGinnis, a Marine veteran who's 949 00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:25,360 running as a Green Party, Green Party candidate in the South 950 00:45:25,360 --> 00:45:27,360 Carolina Senate race. Probably doesn't have a huge 951 00:45:27,360 --> 00:45:29,600 chance, but he's definitely got some notoriety after that. 952 00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:32,560 I mean, that was probably a, that was probably a, a very high 953 00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:34,320 impact PR stunt that he did as well. 954 00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:38,720 Shortly afterwards, he said his arm was broken. 955 00:45:38,720 --> 00:45:41,600 During the clash with the police and the senator, the US Capitol 956 00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:44,240 Police accused him of violently assaulting police officers. 957 00:45:44,240 --> 00:45:46,400 The incident took place at the Senate Armed Services 958 00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:48,960 Subcommittee, a hearing that featured testimony from senior 959 00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:50,720 military officials on military readiness. 960 00:45:50,960 --> 00:45:54,080 Just under 30 minutes into the hearing, McGinnis began yelling 961 00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:56,840 at one point, saying America does not want to send its sons 962 00:45:56,840 --> 00:46:01,200 and daughters to war for Israel. Members of the US Capitol Police 963 00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:03,280 attempted to remove McGuinness, who was wearing a military 964 00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:06,880 uniform, from the hearing. And during the struggle, he 965 00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:09,040 fought with the officers at some point looked like he shoved his 966 00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:10,920 hand inside of a door, try to hold on to it. 967 00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:14,040 And then she he came in and then tried to pull him out of it by 968 00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:16,680 basically like breaking his arm. It's all on camera. 969 00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:18,120 It's all on video. You guys can go see it. 970 00:46:18,120 --> 00:46:20,400 It doesn't look like anybody was necessarily in the right on 971 00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:22,720 that. But, you know, maybe not be the 972 00:46:22,720 --> 00:46:24,280 senator who decides that you have to step in. 973 00:46:24,280 --> 00:46:27,240 There are people who do it. Sure. 974 00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:29,880 That's super important. I actually have a little clip 975 00:46:29,880 --> 00:46:32,280 here from Tom Massey, who was talking on a war powers 976 00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:34,960 discussion that was going on in the House. 977 00:46:36,160 --> 00:46:39,480 God forbid, God forbid we actually bring up like the way 978 00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:41,760 that our country was set up. This is why people hate Tom 979 00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:44,320 Massey. He has things like books and he 980 00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:47,120 reads things from people who, I don't know, helped set up our 981 00:46:47,120 --> 00:46:49,400 system of government and thinks that there are some answers that 982 00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:51,920 have already been debated and determined. 983 00:46:52,160 --> 00:46:55,800 You know, like the Article 1 powers of Congress are meant to 984 00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:58,920 hold the ability to declare war and that it's not supposed to 985 00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:01,840 just rest in the executive. Now, there's some obvious 986 00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:04,000 problems with that because what if people don't agree to go to 987 00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:05,560 war and we already agreed to go to war? 988 00:47:05,720 --> 00:47:07,200 It's Tom Massey. This is a 5 minute clip. 989 00:47:07,200 --> 00:47:08,560 I'm only going to play a little bit of it. 990 00:47:08,560 --> 00:47:13,400 Mr. Speaker, James Madison wrote to Thomas Jefferson in 1789. 991 00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:17,400 The Constitution supposes what the history of all governments 992 00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:22,040 demonstrates, that the executive branch of power is the most 993 00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:24,600 interested in war and most prone to it. 994 00:47:24,640 --> 00:47:29,240 It has accordingly, with studied care, vested the question of war 995 00:47:29,240 --> 00:47:32,680 in the legislature. The Constitution is clear. 996 00:47:32,680 --> 00:47:36,720 Article 1, Section 8, Clause eleven of our Constitution 997 00:47:36,720 --> 00:47:39,960 provides Congress initiatory powers of war. 998 00:47:40,200 --> 00:47:44,360 Article 2, Section 2, Clause one of our Constitution, gives the 999 00:47:44,360 --> 00:47:48,200 President operational powers of war to wage that war. 1000 00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:52,960 Even if this body were to pretend that the 1973 War Powers 1001 00:47:52,960 --> 00:47:56,800 Resolution supersedes the clear language of the Constitution, 1002 00:47:57,040 --> 00:48:00,920 the President still has not met the conditions required by that 1003 00:48:00,920 --> 00:48:04,680 law itself. The 1973 War Powers Resolution 1004 00:48:04,680 --> 00:48:08,960 states plainly that the President may only introduce US 1005 00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:13,720 armed forces into hostilities pursuant to three conditions 1006 00:48:14,120 --> 00:48:18,640 either 1 declaration of war, 2. Specific statutory 1007 00:48:18,680 --> 00:48:22,800 authorization, or three a national emergency created by an 1008 00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:26,800 attack upon the United States. None of those conditions exist 1009 00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:29,280 today. Iran has not attacked the United 1010 00:48:29,280 --> 00:48:31,240 States. Congress has not declared war, 1011 00:48:31,240 --> 00:48:36,000 and Congress has not granted specific statutory authorization 1012 00:48:36,320 --> 00:48:39,120 beyond the OK, that sounds really boring. 1013 00:48:39,120 --> 00:48:41,720 So Tom Massey is like reading things from the law. 1014 00:48:41,720 --> 00:48:43,600 And that seems like that has something to do with the way 1015 00:48:43,600 --> 00:48:45,880 that Congress does business. But like, none of that's 1016 00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:48,320 particularly cool. And what do you mean there's 1017 00:48:48,320 --> 00:48:49,720 been no attack on the United States? 1018 00:48:49,720 --> 00:48:51,520 There's obviously been an attack on the United States. 1019 00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:53,880 Here's Speaker Mike Johnson explaining to you that after we 1020 00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:57,280 bombed Iran and after we killed their supreme leader and after 1021 00:48:57,280 --> 00:48:59,520 we've sent military forces into the theater and we've been 1022 00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:02,560 sending like a bombing campaign. And not just on Operation 1023 00:49:02,560 --> 00:49:04,680 Midnight Hammer where we sent some B twos over to take out 1024 00:49:04,680 --> 00:49:06,560 their new program. No, I mean, like recently, a 1025 00:49:06,560 --> 00:49:09,280 couple days ago when we started this aggressive bombing campaign 1026 00:49:09,280 --> 00:49:11,960 on behalf of ourselves because Donald Trump had a feeling and 1027 00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:13,800 had nothing to do with Israel, especially when all that 1028 00:49:13,800 --> 00:49:16,280 happened. Like, guys, you're not going to 1029 00:49:16,280 --> 00:49:17,720 believe this. This is actually kind of 1030 00:49:18,240 --> 00:49:19,840 shocking. Let me put the chat on the 1031 00:49:19,840 --> 00:49:23,160 screen. We bombed the crap out of Iran 1032 00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:27,080 and killed a bunch of people. There have been reports of 1033 00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:29,280 casualties, like numbering over 1000 so far. 1034 00:49:30,640 --> 00:49:33,000 Guys, they're now firing weapons at us. 1035 00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:34,680 They've attacked sovereign embassies. 1036 00:49:34,680 --> 00:49:37,800 Do you understand? Like now they've declared war on 1037 00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:40,720 us after we bombed them. So now the now the War Powers 1038 00:49:40,720 --> 00:49:45,520 Act applies because, you know, they, they started it after we 1039 00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:48,200 started it. Iran has attacked three of our 1040 00:49:48,200 --> 00:49:49,920 US embassies in the last couple of days. 1041 00:49:50,040 --> 00:49:51,800 OK. Those are sovereign territories 1042 00:49:51,800 --> 00:49:53,760 of the US. They have declared war on us. 1043 00:49:54,360 --> 00:49:55,760 I don't believe in the semantics. 1044 00:49:55,760 --> 00:49:57,400 We've talked about the language this morning. 1045 00:49:57,600 --> 00:50:01,000 We're not at war right now. We're four days in. 1046 00:50:01,160 --> 00:50:06,800 To a very specific clear mission, an operation, Operation 1047 00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:09,360 Epic Fury, which has two components, as you know. 1048 00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:12,720 That we have articulated over and over, the president has the, 1049 00:50:12,880 --> 00:50:16,240 the commander, Joint Chiefs, everybody is is explained. 1050 00:50:17,360 --> 00:50:18,680 Look, everybody's on the same page. 1051 00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:20,600 This is all about whether or not they're going to have access to 1052 00:50:20,600 --> 00:50:22,680 a nuclear weapon system. And then if they had an access 1053 00:50:22,680 --> 00:50:24,840 to that, then they also can't have access to short range 1054 00:50:24,840 --> 00:50:27,200 ballistic missiles. But they also cannot actually 1055 00:50:27,200 --> 00:50:30,200 have a Navy, which could cause problems for us. 1056 00:50:30,200 --> 00:50:34,400 But they also can't say that they are going to attack us if 1057 00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:37,120 Israel attacks them. So it's about this. 1058 00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:40,560 It's also has nothing to do with the Epstein file roll out or any 1059 00:50:40,560 --> 00:50:42,800 domestic policy failures. It's not about that. 1060 00:50:42,960 --> 00:50:47,160 And the reason we can't get a a statement from our elected 1061 00:50:47,160 --> 00:50:50,400 representatives who show up to represent the American people. 1062 00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:52,720 The reason why we can't get a declaration of war is because 1063 00:50:52,720 --> 00:50:56,040 some people might not want it. And listen to me, if some people 1064 00:50:56,040 --> 00:50:59,520 don't want a declaration of war when we're not at war because 1065 00:50:59,520 --> 00:51:02,320 we're not at war. But they declared war on us 1066 00:51:02,400 --> 00:51:04,680 after we did some warlike stuff to them. 1067 00:51:05,960 --> 00:51:08,480 Can you guys imagine if, like, I don't know, like Iran or China 1068 00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:13,000 or Russia, like flew a bunch of long range bombers over the top 1069 00:51:13,000 --> 00:51:15,800 of Washington, DC, did a decapitation strike, took out 1070 00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:17,880 the White House, took out a bunch of members that were 1071 00:51:17,880 --> 00:51:19,400 sitting in for a hearing in Congress. 1072 00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:21,720 And then they flew home. And then they just started 1073 00:51:21,720 --> 00:51:23,960 bombing a little bit of crap out of like, I don't know, New York 1074 00:51:23,960 --> 00:51:28,800 City, which is not even as as densely populated as Tehran. 1075 00:51:29,400 --> 00:51:31,360 And then and then started bombing, you know, I don't know, 1076 00:51:31,360 --> 00:51:34,320 Philadelphia and a bunch of other cities that are up in the 1077 00:51:34,320 --> 00:51:35,720 communist territories of the Northeast. 1078 00:51:35,800 --> 00:51:38,760 They just started doing that. And then and then we were like, 1079 00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:41,000 that's not going to, that's not going to be good. 1080 00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:43,480 So then we started bombing things in Russia and some of the 1081 00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:45,840 friendly countries to Russia. And then they were like, well, 1082 00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:48,080 we're not at war with you. You are at war with us because 1083 00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:50,240 you started coming after our embassies. 1084 00:51:50,520 --> 00:51:52,040 You could see why this would be a problem, right? 1085 00:51:53,960 --> 00:51:55,120 Yeah. It's an imminent threat. 1086 00:51:55,280 --> 00:51:58,280 Like we got to, we've got to get our our ducks in a row. 1087 00:51:58,440 --> 00:52:00,520 The thing is, is that they were two weeks away from having a 1088 00:52:00,520 --> 00:52:03,360 nuke, even though they've been saying that for 30 years. 1089 00:52:03,560 --> 00:52:06,160 They were this time for sure. If we didn't hit within two 1090 00:52:06,160 --> 00:52:07,880 weeks, they would have had a nuclear weapon. 1091 00:52:07,880 --> 00:52:11,440 If we didn't do the B2 attack a number of months ago, they would 1092 00:52:11,720 --> 00:52:14,760 have a nuclear weapon. And when crazy people have 1093 00:52:14,760 --> 00:52:16,680 nuclear weapons, bad things happen. 1094 00:52:17,400 --> 00:52:19,800 So we're in very good shape now. I want to let you know that. 1095 00:52:19,800 --> 00:52:24,400 And we will continue forward. But it's a great display of 1096 00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:28,040 military strength and I'm very proud to have with some of the 1097 00:52:28,040 --> 00:52:32,720 people in the room, both senators and congressmen, we 1098 00:52:32,720 --> 00:52:37,920 rebuilt and women. We and women. 1099 00:52:39,880 --> 00:52:41,400 This came out of my NPR reading as well. 1100 00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:42,320 I thought this is pretty interesting. 1101 00:52:42,320 --> 00:52:45,680 This is coming from WBUR. Why declarations of war? 1102 00:52:45,680 --> 00:52:47,800 War declarations are a thing of the past. 1103 00:52:47,800 --> 00:52:50,800 It was written yesterday before Donald Trump. 1104 00:52:50,880 --> 00:52:53,800 President Donald Trump launched a massive military campaign 1105 00:52:53,800 --> 00:52:57,320 against Iran on Saturday. He collaborated with the Israeli 1106 00:52:57,320 --> 00:52:59,360 government, but he didn't ask Congress for permission to 1107 00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:02,200 strike another country. The Constitution gives Congress 1108 00:53:02,200 --> 00:53:04,520 the power to declare war, designates the president as the 1109 00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:05,640 commander in chief of the military. 1110 00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:07,600 And this has long caused political conflict. 1111 00:53:07,600 --> 00:53:10,680 I think Tom Massie explained why those reasons were there. 1112 00:53:11,040 --> 00:53:13,560 There's, there's plenty of contemporaneous writings that 1113 00:53:13,560 --> 00:53:15,640 went into this. Declarations of war are long 1114 00:53:15,640 --> 00:53:19,080 gone, though, says Princeton University historian Julian 1115 00:53:19,080 --> 00:53:22,080 Zesler Zelizer. Zelizer. 1116 00:53:22,120 --> 00:53:26,520 That's kind of a fun name. It's not since World War 2 that 1117 00:53:26,520 --> 00:53:30,640 Congress has done that. An authorization to use military 1118 00:53:30,640 --> 00:53:32,040 force is different from declaring war. 1119 00:53:32,040 --> 00:53:34,600 In 1950, the United States sent troops to South Korea. 1120 00:53:34,600 --> 00:53:36,640 Why was that a turning point? It's a real turning point. 1121 00:53:37,440 --> 00:53:39,520 That's former President Harry Truman. 1122 00:53:39,520 --> 00:53:42,320 And he was relying on directives from the United Nations rather 1123 00:53:42,320 --> 00:53:44,360 than the rather than the US Congress. 1124 00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:46,840 And it was called a policing action rather than a war. 1125 00:53:47,080 --> 00:53:50,000 And historians say that that was the real change because that's 1126 00:53:50,000 --> 00:53:52,960 when presidents felt freed up to avoid the request for a 1127 00:53:52,960 --> 00:53:55,360 declaration of war. From that point on, they didn't 1128 00:53:55,360 --> 00:53:58,000 do it. There's five other points on 1129 00:53:58,000 --> 00:54:02,400 here talking about LBJ, the War Powers Resolution of 73. 1130 00:54:03,760 --> 00:54:05,600 All of these things are kind of irrelevant at this point because 1131 00:54:05,600 --> 00:54:07,640 they're ancient history. What's relevant is, is not 1132 00:54:07,640 --> 00:54:09,200 everybody would necessarily agree. 1133 00:54:09,320 --> 00:54:11,560 And if everyone doesn't agree, then we're not going to have the 1134 00:54:11,560 --> 00:54:12,920 question. Listen, if I don't think I'm 1135 00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:14,680 going to get your vote, then I'm not going to hold an election. 1136 00:54:14,880 --> 00:54:16,400 That sounds kind of totalitarian, doesn't it? 1137 00:54:16,400 --> 00:54:17,840 No, that's just what Mike Johnson says. 1138 00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:21,800 This is democracy at work. The idea that a few colleagues 1139 00:54:21,800 --> 00:54:25,920 here would try to move a war powers motion and resolution to 1140 00:54:25,920 --> 00:54:27,560 the floor right now is dangerous. 1141 00:54:28,160 --> 00:54:32,200 Imagine a scenario where Congress would vote to to, to 1142 00:54:32,200 --> 00:54:35,680 tell the commander in chief that he was no longer allowed to, to 1143 00:54:35,680 --> 00:54:37,720 complete this mission. That would be a very dangerous 1144 00:54:37,720 --> 00:54:40,920 thing. You see that Iran is firing 1145 00:54:40,920 --> 00:54:43,840 almost seemingly indiscriminately at targets. 1146 00:54:43,840 --> 00:54:45,920 They're trying to intimidate America. 1147 00:54:45,920 --> 00:54:49,800 They're trying. To, to, to test our resolve and 1148 00:54:49,800 --> 00:54:52,080 the idea that there's some members of of this legislative 1149 00:54:52,080 --> 00:54:54,320 body that would play along with that plays right into the hands 1150 00:54:54,320 --> 00:54:55,840 of the enemy. And I, I think it's shameful. 1151 00:54:55,880 --> 00:55:00,320 I. Yeah, that is shameful. 1152 00:55:00,760 --> 00:55:03,120 That is totally shameful. I mean, after all, they attacked 1153 00:55:03,120 --> 00:55:06,600 us, guys. They attacked our sovereign 1154 00:55:06,600 --> 00:55:08,120 territory. They went after our embassies. 1155 00:55:08,120 --> 00:55:09,720 You can't do that just because we bombed you. 1156 00:55:09,760 --> 00:55:11,040 You can't go after our embassies. 1157 00:55:11,040 --> 00:55:14,080 Iran has attacked three of our US embassies in the last couple 1158 00:55:14,080 --> 00:55:16,360 of days, OK? Those are sovereign territories 1159 00:55:16,360 --> 00:55:18,320 of the US They have declared war on us. 1160 00:55:18,880 --> 00:55:20,280 I don't believe in the semantics. 1161 00:55:20,280 --> 00:55:21,960 We've talked about the language this morning. 1162 00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:26,560 We're not at war right now. We're in four days in to a very 1163 00:55:26,560 --> 00:55:31,960 specific, a clear mission, an operation, Operation Epic Fury, 1164 00:55:31,960 --> 00:55:35,560 which has two components, as you know, that we have articulated 1165 00:55:35,560 --> 00:55:37,080 over and over. The president has the the 1166 00:55:37,080 --> 00:55:40,760 commander of the Joint Chiefs, everybody is is explained. 1167 00:55:42,760 --> 00:55:46,200 Mr. Burns said that Oceana has always been at war with East 1168 00:55:46,200 --> 00:55:48,560 Asia. It's it was at war with East 1169 00:55:48,560 --> 00:55:50,360 Asia, always has been at war with East Asia. 1170 00:55:50,360 --> 00:55:52,280 And they came after us first. And that's why there was an 1171 00:55:52,280 --> 00:55:54,160 imminent threat, because they were always an imminent threat, 1172 00:55:54,160 --> 00:55:56,560 going back to the 1930s, in which somebody had done 1173 00:55:56,560 --> 00:56:00,400 something then about Iran. Let's put a war boner on the 1174 00:56:00,400 --> 00:56:01,240 screen. It's been a little while. 1175 00:56:01,240 --> 00:56:02,840 Let's do that. The big questions that I think 1176 00:56:02,840 --> 00:56:06,360 you're going to hear from a lot of the senators is why now there 1177 00:56:06,360 --> 00:56:09,000 was no imminent threat. We know that's what Mark Warner 1178 00:56:09,000 --> 00:56:11,360 is already saying. What will you say to that? 1179 00:56:11,360 --> 00:56:13,720 And what do you expect that Trump folks will say to that? 1180 00:56:15,040 --> 00:56:18,960 I think that's a ridiculous idea that there's no imminent threat 1181 00:56:18,960 --> 00:56:23,560 from a regime who chants death to America since 1979. 1182 00:56:23,800 --> 00:56:28,040 There's no imminent threat from a regime that sponsored 1183 00:56:28,040 --> 00:56:34,280 Hezbollah who killed 220 Marines and 18 sailors in 1983 in 1184 00:56:34,280 --> 00:56:38,080 Lebanon. Go tell it to the families of 1185 00:56:38,080 --> 00:56:42,920 the of IED victims in Iraq and Afghanistan sponsored by Iran 1186 00:56:42,920 --> 00:56:47,560 that this regime is no threat. You know, in 1939 out of 35. 1187 00:56:47,560 --> 00:56:49,880 I don't know if he was an imminent threat, but I wish 1188 00:56:49,880 --> 00:56:54,920 somebody would dealt with him any me too. 1189 00:56:55,800 --> 00:56:58,040 I wish in 193935. He's having a hard time getting 1190 00:56:58,040 --> 00:57:00,360 some of his words outlook. Give Lindsey Graham a break. 1191 00:57:00,520 --> 00:57:02,840 OK? It's been a long time since he's 1192 00:57:02,840 --> 00:57:06,200 had a priapism. A priapism like that. 1193 00:57:06,760 --> 00:57:10,120 If you guys don't know, that's like a a medically long term 1194 00:57:10,320 --> 00:57:13,680 erect phallus. That's when the blood flow is 1195 00:57:13,680 --> 00:57:15,720 diverted down there and it can be in a medical emergency. 1196 00:57:15,720 --> 00:57:18,000 It's what happens if you take too much Viagra or if the United 1197 00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:20,480 States actually goes to war. After years and years of trying 1198 00:57:20,480 --> 00:57:24,440 to stroke a war boner. Boom, suddenly it hits you and 1199 00:57:24,440 --> 00:57:25,480 you can no longer think straight. 1200 00:57:25,480 --> 00:57:30,440 Look, there was a totally reasonable discussion, and then 1201 00:57:30,440 --> 00:57:34,080 Donald Trump had a feeling. Maybe it was more than a 1202 00:57:34,080 --> 00:57:35,800 feeling. The president had a feeling, 1203 00:57:35,800 --> 00:57:38,960 again, based on fact that Iran was going to strike the United 1204 00:57:38,960 --> 00:57:41,880 States, was going to strike our assets in the region, and he 1205 00:57:41,880 --> 00:57:45,200 made a determination to launch Operation Epic Fury based on all 1206 00:57:45,200 --> 00:57:48,160 of those reasons and. Got it. 1207 00:57:48,280 --> 00:57:50,000 All right, got it. So it was more than a feeling. 1208 00:57:50,120 --> 00:57:52,120 There was a there was a feeling based on facts. 1209 00:57:52,680 --> 00:57:54,640 Anyway, I'm, I'm, I'm beating this up because it's just like 1210 00:57:54,760 --> 00:57:56,240 the, the messaging is ridiculous. 1211 00:57:56,240 --> 00:57:58,640 You don't have to. You can want good things for 1212 00:57:58,640 --> 00:58:01,040 American troops, which I do. I want them to come home safely. 1213 00:58:01,480 --> 00:58:04,640 You can also look out there and say, didn't you say the opposite 1214 00:58:04,640 --> 00:58:06,480 of this for a long time? And that's also true. 1215 00:58:06,480 --> 00:58:08,920 That's also true. But also then you look at the 1216 00:58:08,920 --> 00:58:12,040 messaging and you're like, what kind of convoluted garbage are 1217 00:58:12,040 --> 00:58:16,240 you guys trying to sell us? And why would you think that we 1218 00:58:16,520 --> 00:58:20,320 would listen to you? You're not even making sense. 1219 00:58:20,880 --> 00:58:23,400 You're not having a, you're not having a coherent message. 1220 00:58:23,680 --> 00:58:28,160 Maybe the reason that we can't do, we can't do military action 1221 00:58:28,160 --> 00:58:31,040 is because people think the military is too woke. 1222 00:58:32,560 --> 00:58:34,560 Is that a talking point that's coming out? 1223 00:58:34,560 --> 00:58:36,320 Here's Stephen Miller. I'm going to do that in just one 1224 00:58:36,320 --> 00:58:37,640 second. Stephen Miller said the reason 1225 00:58:37,640 --> 00:58:40,200 that people didn't want war, it wasn't so much that Donald Trump 1226 00:58:40,200 --> 00:58:42,520 promised peace. He said he was going to make the 1227 00:58:42,520 --> 00:58:44,480 military strong again. And people thought the military 1228 00:58:44,480 --> 00:58:46,400 wasn't strong, so they were afraid to go to war because they 1229 00:58:46,400 --> 00:58:48,040 didn't want wussy people going to war. 1230 00:58:48,120 --> 00:58:50,360 But now that we have like bad asses that are back in there, 1231 00:58:50,440 --> 00:58:55,160 then now we can do the war game.

Look, I didn't use Spotify 1249 00:59:34,200 --> 00:59:35,760 before. I used their hosting service, 1250 00:59:35,760 --> 00:59:39,800 but it is better. OK, So it's always been at war. 1251 00:59:39,800 --> 00:59:42,120 Let's see, The reason we were worried about the war is because 1252 00:59:42,120 --> 00:59:44,600 we thought that our military was a bunch of wimps, and now 1253 00:59:44,600 --> 00:59:46,880 they're not wimps. So here we go. 1254 00:59:46,880 --> 00:59:50,120 One of the reasons I fear, Sean, that some people in this country 1255 00:59:50,120 --> 00:59:53,200 lost faith in the military and the capacity to use that 1256 00:59:53,200 --> 00:59:57,920 military to defend us is because we had a woke Pentagon, because 1257 00:59:57,920 --> 01:00:01,280 we had a military who at the very highest levels, not the war 1258 01:00:01,280 --> 01:00:05,560 fighters, was forced to fight a less than full fight. 1259 01:00:05,640 --> 01:00:09,160 What you're seeing now, Sean, is a military that is unleashed in 1260 01:00:09,160 --> 01:00:13,280 all of its lethal prowess to go out and seek, destroy and kill 1261 01:00:13,280 --> 01:00:15,920 the enemy, which is what militaries are for. 1262 01:00:17,560 --> 01:00:23,600 Yeah, Merca, maybe somebody should ask some veterans what 1263 01:00:23,600 --> 01:00:25,480 they think about that, because that's kind of gross. 1264 01:00:26,680 --> 01:00:29,600 I don't think that Steve Miller has served in the military. 1265 01:00:29,800 --> 01:00:32,280 He claims that Americans think that we weren't capable. 1266 01:00:32,280 --> 01:00:33,760 I think Americans always knew what they were capable. 1267 01:00:33,760 --> 01:00:36,120 They just kind of wanted a judicious use of the military. 1268 01:00:36,320 --> 01:00:38,840 You know what sucks? When Donald Trump makes Kamala 1269 01:00:38,840 --> 01:00:41,040 Harris correct. This clip was dug up. 1270 01:00:41,440 --> 01:00:43,720 They're going to be able to play all the clips of Donald Trump 1271 01:00:43,720 --> 01:00:45,840 saying I am peace. I am the president of peace. 1272 01:00:45,840 --> 01:00:47,760 I'm the only guy that ever started a new war. 1273 01:00:48,160 --> 01:00:50,840 That's not good. You're going to make Rachel 1274 01:00:50,840 --> 01:00:54,480 Maddow and and Kamala Harris correct about this guy. 1275 01:00:56,360 --> 01:00:58,440 It's just a really bad look. It's totally unnecessary. 1276 01:00:58,440 --> 01:01:00,440 He did have a feeling though. Tweeting out, you know, this 1277 01:01:00,480 --> 01:01:03,720 bravado about, you know, lock em, lock and load it. 1278 01:01:03,920 --> 01:01:07,640 What the what does that mean? OK. 1279 01:01:07,720 --> 01:01:09,640 And also well. It's an implicit military 1280 01:01:09,640 --> 01:01:11,440 threat, the. US is, yes it is. 1281 01:01:11,680 --> 01:01:13,200 Yes it is. Yes it is. 1282 01:01:13,200 --> 01:01:17,320 And again, you know, listen, as far as I'm concerned, this, this 1283 01:01:17,680 --> 01:01:22,400 president is, is motivated by his his personal insecurities 1284 01:01:22,400 --> 01:01:24,360 more than he is our national security. 1285 01:01:25,000 --> 01:01:28,920 If this president is thinking about putting us in a position 1286 01:01:28,920 --> 01:01:33,560 where we're in a war with Iran, the consequences will be 1287 01:01:33,840 --> 01:01:37,720 absolutely. Unacceptable and and and tragic 1288 01:01:37,960 --> 01:01:41,960 in terms of the young men and women who are American soldiers 1289 01:01:42,680 --> 01:01:45,600 who would be sent and deployed into something that was 1290 01:01:45,600 --> 01:01:47,960 completely avoidable in a Harrison. 1291 01:01:50,120 --> 01:01:51,960 It doesn't make me like Kamala Harris anymore. 1292 01:01:52,280 --> 01:01:54,320 I still don't like her. I think she's a moron. 1293 01:01:54,400 --> 01:01:55,880 I think they would have sent pallets of cash. 1294 01:01:55,880 --> 01:01:58,160 They would have tried to appease and buy off the Iranians. 1295 01:02:00,040 --> 01:02:02,160 But interesting that she was calling that out. 1296 01:02:03,600 --> 01:02:06,240 Kind of not great. Again, it gives people on the 1297 01:02:06,240 --> 01:02:08,320 left fodder to be able to say, look, we warned you. 1298 01:02:08,320 --> 01:02:11,000 We told you told you was going to do this thing. 1299 01:02:12,240 --> 01:02:14,160 Does she care about American soldiers and lives? 1300 01:02:14,160 --> 01:02:15,240 No. She was part of the Biden 1301 01:02:15,240 --> 01:02:17,440 administration when they abandoned Afghanistan and had 13 1302 01:02:17,440 --> 01:02:19,520 people killed at Abby Gate. Do you think they really cared 1303 01:02:19,520 --> 01:02:20,280 at all? No. 1304 01:02:21,320 --> 01:02:23,320 Do they come from the same tradition as the Hillary Clinton 1305 01:02:23,320 --> 01:02:26,160 types that did Benghazi and said what difference does it make? 1306 01:02:26,160 --> 01:02:29,920 Yeah, they do. So do I buy what she's saying? 1307 01:02:30,320 --> 01:02:31,680 No. I'm just telling you that her 1308 01:02:31,680 --> 01:02:34,040 words line up with fact now. And that's not great. 1309 01:02:34,920 --> 01:02:37,200 It's just a talking point that gives them an opportunity to 1310 01:02:37,200 --> 01:02:38,960 launch in. Told you back then. 1311 01:02:39,120 --> 01:02:42,360 Look what I said back then. You want the worst possible 1312 01:02:42,360 --> 01:02:44,800 thing you could do is, and I, and I'm not even exaggerating 1313 01:02:44,800 --> 01:02:47,920 here, the worst thing you could do is try to motivate the 1314 01:02:47,920 --> 01:02:52,800 talking heads. You could try to get the, the 1315 01:02:52,800 --> 01:02:57,160 most trusted quote UN quote conservative Con Inc types. 1316 01:02:58,120 --> 01:03:02,120 And if you could just set them up with an opportunity to 1317 01:03:02,120 --> 01:03:03,920 interview, what would our founding fathers have said? 1318 01:03:03,920 --> 01:03:05,760 Now we know what the founding fathers would have said because 1319 01:03:05,760 --> 01:03:08,440 they actually had debates about this and we know what their 1320 01:03:08,440 --> 01:03:11,080 letters said and we know what the discussions that were had at 1321 01:03:11,080 --> 01:03:12,560 time. And we understand what The 1322 01:03:12,560 --> 01:03:15,000 Federalist Papers did and the anti federalist wrote against. 1323 01:03:15,000 --> 01:03:17,520 And So what there was a robust discussion about how should the 1324 01:03:17,800 --> 01:03:20,320 the the United States exist and what should they do? 1325 01:03:20,440 --> 01:03:22,520 And there were court cases and speeches and all this kind of 1326 01:03:22,520 --> 01:03:23,320 stuff. But you know what would be 1327 01:03:23,320 --> 01:03:24,680 better? Because we're just dumb 1328 01:03:24,680 --> 01:03:26,520 Americans who need to have slop fed to us. 1329 01:03:26,520 --> 01:03:29,560 We need to be told that there was a glove found 2-2 miles away 1330 01:03:29,560 --> 01:03:31,640 from some lady's house. And it could be the solution. 1331 01:03:32,120 --> 01:03:37,520 We'd like to see an AI version of George Washington invented, 1332 01:03:38,240 --> 01:03:42,720 created, and then give propaganda into that AI bot's 1333 01:03:42,720 --> 01:03:45,080 mouth. What if we could get Glenn Beck 1334 01:03:45,680 --> 01:03:49,480 to interview fake George Washington that comes to the 1335 01:03:49,480 --> 01:03:51,400 conclusion that Donald Trump is correct? 1336 01:03:51,520 --> 01:03:54,720 No matter What Could we do that? Would that have like a really 1337 01:03:54,720 --> 01:03:57,000 good reception? There's a reason why Glenn 1338 01:03:57,000 --> 01:04:00,600 Beck's new project, which is called Torch, is not taking off. 1339 01:04:02,960 --> 01:04:07,280 Maybe interviewing a fake George Washington bot is not the win. 1340 01:04:07,280 --> 01:04:09,520 Are you guys ready for this? I saw this on X this morning and 1341 01:04:09,520 --> 01:04:13,440 it is getting destroyed by everybody because it is super 1342 01:04:13,440 --> 01:04:16,320 freaking weird. It might be the weirdest thing 1343 01:04:16,320 --> 01:04:18,880 that I've played this year, George. 1344 01:04:18,880 --> 01:04:24,800 We are trying to not fight foreign wars and not be involved 1345 01:04:24,800 --> 01:04:27,800 in an in the world's policeman. But there are times that we have 1346 01:04:27,800 --> 01:04:32,160 to demonstrate strength in order to prevent conflict. 1347 01:04:32,200 --> 01:04:37,800 But I I don't know where the foreign entanglement begins and 1348 01:04:37,800 --> 01:04:42,320 where it ends. When I was president, I did not 1349 01:04:42,320 --> 01:04:45,760 crave power. I didn't strut in my uniform 1350 01:04:45,760 --> 01:04:49,080 dreaming of conquest. In fact, I begged several times 1351 01:04:49,440 --> 01:04:52,640 to not be the general and not be the president. 1352 01:04:52,760 --> 01:04:55,880 I didn't want it, but I understood my responsibility, 1353 01:04:56,320 --> 01:05:00,480 and I also understood that some things that that are easy to 1354 01:05:00,480 --> 01:05:03,920 forget when you're staring down bayonets. 1355 01:05:04,560 --> 01:05:08,920 Peace is not the default. It has to be guarded 1356 01:05:09,280 --> 01:05:12,520 deliberately with foresight and strength. 1357 01:05:13,400 --> 01:05:16,800 My generation lived through a fragile independence. 1358 01:05:16,920 --> 01:05:20,880 Our New Republic was surrounded, literally and figuratively, by 1359 01:05:20,880 --> 01:05:24,000 instability. Most of the founders believed 1360 01:05:24,000 --> 01:05:26,800 that we would not survive to 1820. 1361 01:05:27,200 --> 01:05:29,120 We thought it was an interesting experiment. 1362 01:05:29,880 --> 01:05:33,200 European powers were sniffing the opportunities. 1363 01:05:33,200 --> 01:05:35,360 States were threatening to splinter. 1364 01:05:35,360 --> 01:05:39,040 Loyalists were lurking. None of this was hypothetical. 1365 01:05:39,520 --> 01:05:43,440 It was the daily background noise of early America. 1366 01:05:44,080 --> 01:05:46,080 So how did you protect that freedom? 1367 01:05:47,400 --> 01:05:49,840 Well, you said it through strength. 1368 01:05:50,480 --> 01:05:54,680 Weakness didn't just invite disagreement, it invited 1369 01:05:54,760 --> 01:05:58,200 disunion. And I had already seen what 1370 01:05:58,200 --> 01:06:00,880 happens to authority when it is too diluted. 1371 01:06:00,880 --> 01:06:03,720 The Continental Congress couldn't pay the troops. 1372 01:06:03,720 --> 01:06:06,440 They couldn't enforce unity or act decisively. 1373 01:06:06,960 --> 01:06:10,160 That kind of vacuum doesn't stay empty. 1374 01:06:10,600 --> 01:06:14,280 Either Chaos fills it, or another power does. 1375 01:06:14,560 --> 01:06:19,440 And that's why. What in the actual hell is going 1376 01:06:19,440 --> 01:06:21,600 on right now? That was a fake George 1377 01:06:21,600 --> 01:06:27,120 Washington created by AI that talks exactly like Glenn Beck. 1378 01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:34,240 If Glenn Beck pretended that he was 200 years old, like, what? 1379 01:06:35,280 --> 01:06:38,040 What are we doing, man? And also the music in the 1380 01:06:38,040 --> 01:06:40,280 background sounded like he was going to break out and Pat 1381 01:06:40,280 --> 01:06:42,120 Benatar, we belong at any moment. 1382 01:06:42,720 --> 01:06:47,520 Many times I tried to tell you, many times I cried alone. 1383 01:06:47,720 --> 01:06:53,120 Like what was going on there? That's the weirdest, sloppy, 1384 01:06:53,680 --> 01:06:57,760 gnarly propaganda that I've ever seen, and I am not exaggerating 1385 01:06:57,760 --> 01:07:02,960 even a little bit. He created a fake George 1386 01:07:02,960 --> 01:07:07,200 Washington to be the answer to what he was. 1387 01:07:07,200 --> 01:07:11,880 This was like that was that might be the most masturbatorial 1388 01:07:11,880 --> 01:07:16,240 thing that I've ever seen by a by a talking head. 1389 01:07:17,920 --> 01:07:20,800 I can't fathom interviewing myself. 1390 01:07:24,200 --> 01:07:27,760 Yeah, he just interviewed himself. 1391 01:07:29,600 --> 01:07:32,800 Where he was himself and George Washington. 1392 01:07:33,840 --> 01:07:36,320 And so he did the Sean Hannity where he told the guest the 1393 01:07:36,320 --> 01:07:38,160 answer, except the guest was himself. 1394 01:07:40,480 --> 01:07:42,120 Wow. Cool. 1395 01:07:42,480 --> 01:07:46,280 Anyway, take a deep breath. Acknowledge that we live in a 1396 01:07:46,280 --> 01:07:49,160 strange, strange time when that just happened. 1397 01:07:49,160 --> 01:07:52,160 That was real. That was real fake. 1398 01:07:52,160 --> 01:07:53,680 That was a real fake thing that just happened. 1399 01:07:54,800 --> 01:07:59,000 Good God almighty. Let me make sure I'm not missing 1400 01:07:59,000 --> 01:08:02,360 any other ridiculous moments or clips about this. 1401 01:08:04,040 --> 01:08:07,000 Oh, Tucker Carlson, another talking head, but someone who 1402 01:08:07,000 --> 01:08:09,040 tends to be closer aligned to what I think. 1403 01:08:09,040 --> 01:08:11,040 I think Tucker is brilliant. I think he's really smart when 1404 01:08:11,040 --> 01:08:13,640 he speaks. He did this and it was really 1405 01:08:13,640 --> 01:08:16,040 well done. This was on Piers Morgan. 1406 01:08:16,720 --> 01:08:19,880 And maybe a moment of just sanity going like, hey, we could 1407 01:08:19,880 --> 01:08:21,680 all be wrong. We all may be wrong at some 1408 01:08:21,680 --> 01:08:25,040 point in time, but some things just end up always going the 1409 01:08:25,040 --> 01:08:27,359 wrong way. You know, like assuming that 1410 01:08:27,359 --> 01:08:30,359 you're going to have a short military, short military 1411 01:08:30,359 --> 01:08:31,800 interaction when that's not going to be the case. 1412 01:08:31,800 --> 01:08:35,439 So here's Tucker and Piers Morgan, who's awful, but Tucker 1413 01:08:35,439 --> 01:08:39,359 and he have a debate. A Brit tries to own an American 1414 01:08:39,359 --> 01:08:41,160 and an American pulls a George Washington. 1415 01:08:41,160 --> 01:08:43,560 Is that the segue? And let's call it that, where 1416 01:08:43,840 --> 01:08:46,040 Donald Trump decided to attack Iran. 1417 01:08:47,439 --> 01:08:50,520 What did you feel about that, given that it ended so 1418 01:08:50,520 --> 01:08:53,080 apparently quickly? Do you think Trump was 1419 01:08:53,080 --> 01:08:57,800 vindicated in his short, sharp strategy there by by bombing 1420 01:08:57,800 --> 01:09:00,120 Iran? Or do you think that this will 1421 01:09:00,120 --> 01:09:02,240 come back and haunt him down the line? 1422 01:09:04,920 --> 01:09:07,600 Well, of course, I can't say. I mean, my, my life is a kind of 1423 01:09:07,600 --> 01:09:10,720 unbroken chain of bad predictions and, you know, 1424 01:09:10,720 --> 01:09:14,279 embarrassing analysis. And I've been wrong so many 1425 01:09:14,279 --> 01:09:16,040 times. And I will be in the future 1426 01:09:16,080 --> 01:09:19,319 without question. However, it's just a fact that, 1427 01:09:19,800 --> 01:09:22,720 you know, events have consequences that we can't 1428 01:09:22,720 --> 01:09:25,399 foresee, often for years or generations. 1429 01:09:25,880 --> 01:09:32,200 And I think it's very unwise to use military force without a 1430 01:09:32,399 --> 01:09:35,800 clear, achievable object objective that serves the 1431 01:09:35,800 --> 01:09:37,560 American National interest. In fact, it's not. 1432 01:09:37,600 --> 01:09:41,120 It's not allowed to use it under any other circumstances. 1433 01:09:41,160 --> 01:09:43,920 And in that case, I was concerned and remain concerned 1434 01:09:44,520 --> 01:09:47,479 that this focus on Iran is not actually connected to our 1435 01:09:47,479 --> 01:09:49,680 national security. How many Shiite terror attacks 1436 01:09:49,800 --> 01:09:51,399 have there been in the United States in my lifetime? 1437 01:09:51,399 --> 01:09:55,280 Let me do the math 0 So don't tell me that the greatest threat 1438 01:09:55,280 --> 01:09:57,400 we face is Iran. That's a lie. 1439 01:09:57,680 --> 01:09:59,560 You're telling it on behalf of a foreign power. 1440 01:09:59,560 --> 01:10:01,520 Maybe they feel the greatest threat they face is Iran. 1441 01:10:01,600 --> 01:10:02,800 It's not the greatest threat we face. 1442 01:10:03,040 --> 01:10:06,680 It's not an endorsement of Iran. OK, Doesn't make me a simp for 1443 01:10:06,680 --> 01:10:08,960 the Shiites. It just makes me an American 1444 01:10:08,960 --> 01:10:11,320 who's trying to think clearly about what our problems are. 1445 01:10:11,560 --> 01:10:14,360 And our problems would include 10s of millions of foreign 1446 01:10:14,360 --> 01:10:16,160 nationals living illegally in my country. 1447 01:10:16,160 --> 01:10:18,680 Nobody knows their identities. They would include a collapsing 1448 01:10:18,680 --> 01:10:22,520 economy that makes it very hard for my children to have children 1449 01:10:22,520 --> 01:10:24,680 and would live the life that they grew up with and and their 1450 01:10:24,680 --> 01:10:28,040 friends and all American kids. It would include a drug crisis 1451 01:10:28,040 --> 01:10:31,000 that's killed millions of Americans over the past 20 1452 01:10:31,000 --> 01:10:32,960 millions of Americans over the last 20 years. 1453 01:10:33,240 --> 01:10:35,040 Iran is not even in the top ten list. 1454 01:10:35,360 --> 01:10:37,920 So you can scream at me all you want and call me names and call 1455 01:10:37,920 --> 01:10:41,080 me a bigot or whatever, but I just, there's no evidence to 1456 01:10:41,080 --> 01:10:43,760 support that. And so if the energy of the US 1457 01:10:43,760 --> 01:10:46,840 government is focused on a threat that's not the primary 1458 01:10:46,840 --> 01:10:49,680 threat to us, it is by definition ignoring threats that 1459 01:10:49,680 --> 01:10:51,920 are. And that's a kind of negligence. 1460 01:10:52,840 --> 01:10:55,160 And so I pointed that out. I was, you know, roundly 1461 01:10:55,160 --> 01:10:56,560 attacked. My family was attacked, 1462 01:10:57,120 --> 01:10:58,720 whatever. I don't care. 1463 01:10:58,840 --> 01:11:00,800 It's true. And everyone kind of knows it's 1464 01:11:00,800 --> 01:11:03,240 true. And being bullied by Ben Shapiro 1465 01:11:03,240 --> 01:11:05,480 into pretending that it's not true, it's just not on the 1466 01:11:05,480 --> 01:11:08,120 program for me at 56, I'm just not not doing that anymore. 1467 01:11:10,120 --> 01:11:13,600 That sounds kind of reasonable. I had this theory about gun 1468 01:11:13,600 --> 01:11:15,280 control people because there's a lot of people that are 1469 01:11:15,280 --> 01:11:16,880 completely irrational. They're very emotionally 1470 01:11:16,880 --> 01:11:18,920 involved in debates where they don't understand the actual 1471 01:11:18,920 --> 01:11:20,720 things that are at play. And so I just break it down to a 1472 01:11:20,720 --> 01:11:22,200 scientific level. It's like, OK, here's the deal. 1473 01:11:22,880 --> 01:11:26,520 There are threats to people's lives in the country I live in. 1474 01:11:27,560 --> 01:11:30,640 Let's look at what they are. Let's look at them by number. 1475 01:11:30,760 --> 01:11:33,880 Let's rank them by number so that we have a priority list. 1476 01:11:34,080 --> 01:11:36,760 And when you get down to the thing where we've sold all the 1477 01:11:36,760 --> 01:11:41,680 other preventable causes of death and me owning guns is is 1478 01:11:41,680 --> 01:11:44,480 the next on the list that I'm willing to have a totally 1479 01:11:44,480 --> 01:11:47,520 rational, reasonable conversation with you on whether 1480 01:11:47,520 --> 01:11:49,960 or not I should voluntarily disarm. 1481 01:11:51,200 --> 01:11:53,600 I'll have that conversation with you right after you solve heart 1482 01:11:53,600 --> 01:11:57,080 disease, right after you solve obesity and chronic pulmonary 1483 01:11:57,080 --> 01:12:01,120 disorders and all of the dietary and metabolic symptoms that that 1484 01:12:01,120 --> 01:12:04,080 destroy people. When you start removing all the 1485 01:12:04,080 --> 01:12:07,120 ability to to end accidental death, many of which are 1486 01:12:07,120 --> 01:12:09,760 predictable. When you start solving that, 1487 01:12:09,760 --> 01:12:13,840 when you, when you end medical malpractice deaths where 500,000 1488 01:12:13,840 --> 01:12:16,600 people die at the hands of surgeons and physicians and the 1489 01:12:16,600 --> 01:12:19,640 wrong prescriptions giving out and the wrong medical procedure 1490 01:12:19,640 --> 01:12:22,520 being done. When you get there and you've 1491 01:12:22,520 --> 01:12:25,520 done all those things and you end up down there in the bottom, 1492 01:12:25,680 --> 01:12:31,040 you know, 15 of the list, and you go, hey, we solved all the 1493 01:12:31,040 --> 01:12:33,560 preventable causes of death, and the last thing that's going to 1494 01:12:33,560 --> 01:12:37,320 keep people from dying now is you and your guns, which could 1495 01:12:37,320 --> 01:12:39,760 be used to kill them. Then we can have that 1496 01:12:39,760 --> 01:12:42,200 conversation. But until we get there, I don't 1497 01:12:42,200 --> 01:12:44,320 want to talk about it. And I think Tucker Carlson's 1498 01:12:44,320 --> 01:12:46,360 point is there's a domestic policy. 1499 01:12:47,080 --> 01:12:49,760 There's a whole bunch of things that matter to regular Americans 1500 01:12:49,800 --> 01:12:53,800 way more than anything that has to do with Iran, feelings aside. 1501 01:12:54,080 --> 01:12:58,520 Then maybe we could talk about Iran when it makes the most 1502 01:12:58,520 --> 01:13:02,800 sense and it makes the most sense only when we get down to 1503 01:13:02,800 --> 01:13:05,800 that level. I've got a I've got a story here 1504 01:13:05,800 --> 01:13:08,840 that came from the New York Times of all places, which 1505 01:13:08,840 --> 01:13:12,240 should illustrate to you where real priorities look. 1506 01:13:12,240 --> 01:13:13,840 This is again New York Times archived. 1507 01:13:13,840 --> 01:13:17,600 I'll put it in the in the, the, the comments for the two video 1508 01:13:17,600 --> 01:13:20,440 platforms we normally do. Why does childcare seem less 1509 01:13:20,440 --> 01:13:23,200 affordable than ever? It's always been expensive, but 1510 01:13:23,360 --> 01:13:26,840 but recently prices have risen and faster than inflation. 1511 01:13:27,360 --> 01:13:28,760 The funny thing is, is you have a got. 1512 01:13:28,760 --> 01:13:30,080 You cannot make this stuff up. Guys. 1513 01:13:30,320 --> 01:13:31,760 If you're listening, you're missing out. 1514 01:13:31,840 --> 01:13:34,320 Join me on Spotify. Check that out first. 1515 01:13:35,160 --> 01:13:36,960 If you're watching, look at this lady over here. 1516 01:13:37,760 --> 01:13:41,120 This is Sherri Pica. She runs a child care center in 1517 01:13:41,120 --> 01:13:43,000 Lacrosse, Wisconsin. Unless you think this was 1518 01:13:43,000 --> 01:13:45,800 somewhere in New York City or San Francisco, CA, anything. 1519 01:13:45,800 --> 01:13:49,760 OK, here we are. She has a second job because 1520 01:13:49,760 --> 01:13:53,960 working at the child care center pays so little and she has legit 1521 01:13:54,200 --> 01:13:56,720 purple hair with a streak of white. 1522 01:13:56,720 --> 01:13:59,040 I don't know if it's because she's naturally white haired or 1523 01:13:59,040 --> 01:14:02,040 if she's dyed it white, bleached it out, but purple and white 1524 01:14:02,040 --> 01:14:04,160 hair. And she has a hard time making 1525 01:14:04,160 --> 01:14:06,240 enough money. And then they go in to talk 1526 01:14:06,240 --> 01:14:07,600 about how childcare is really expensive. 1527 01:14:07,720 --> 01:14:10,040 The craziest thing is, is that if anybody could actually do 1528 01:14:10,040 --> 01:14:11,760 math, and this is always a tax on math. 1529 01:14:12,160 --> 01:14:15,240 If you have someone who's looking and going, gosh, it is 1530 01:14:15,240 --> 01:14:17,120 so expensive for my wife to go to work. 1531 01:14:17,120 --> 01:14:19,440 We have to pay most of what she makes in childcare. 1532 01:14:19,640 --> 01:14:22,000 And then you don't consider what's the value of having my 1533 01:14:22,000 --> 01:14:24,720 wife home to be able to help raise my kids and make meals and 1534 01:14:24,880 --> 01:14:26,880 all the things that go on because it's not just child 1535 01:14:26,880 --> 01:14:27,840 care. The minute you start putting 1536 01:14:27,840 --> 01:14:31,440 your kid into child care, the additional costs stack up. 1537 01:14:31,800 --> 01:14:34,120 There's taxes on any earnings. There's the fact that you're 1538 01:14:34,120 --> 01:14:36,400 paying for the child care. There's the loss of being able 1539 01:14:36,400 --> 01:14:38,840 to actually raise your own child and be there when they get home. 1540 01:14:39,000 --> 01:14:41,880 There's the the preparation for food, which can be very 1541 01:14:41,880 --> 01:14:44,160 expensive if you have to eat out or if you have to buy pre made 1542 01:14:44,160 --> 01:14:46,000 meals. It's way more expensive to buy 1543 01:14:46,000 --> 01:14:48,160 something that's pre cooked than it is if you're going to make it 1544 01:14:48,160 --> 01:14:51,280 yourself, right? And so as you go down the list, 1545 01:14:51,280 --> 01:14:53,400 you can find that a lot of these things, if you were to just do a 1546 01:14:53,400 --> 01:14:55,920 straight financial analysis of it, it's like, it actually 1547 01:14:55,920 --> 01:14:58,200 doesn't make sense for a lot of spouses to have two incomes. 1548 01:14:58,320 --> 01:15:01,640 You get more money on the on the top end for your, your gross 1549 01:15:01,640 --> 01:15:04,760 revenue, but your net is actually so low that it actually 1550 01:15:04,760 --> 01:15:06,960 doesn't actually pay out. There's plenty of people in that 1551 01:15:06,960 --> 01:15:08,600 scenario. Obviously some people will be 1552 01:15:08,600 --> 01:15:10,680 exceptions, but most people don't actually know how to even 1553 01:15:10,680 --> 01:15:14,080 look at the stuff and do a, a, a, a sober analysis of am I 1554 01:15:14,080 --> 01:15:16,080 getting my money's worth by sending my wife to work? 1555 01:15:16,280 --> 01:15:18,080 I know my parents did this discussion at one time when I 1556 01:15:18,080 --> 01:15:20,600 was younger. The deal was is because of the 1557 01:15:20,600 --> 01:15:22,400 income tax bracket that my dad landed in. 1558 01:15:22,680 --> 01:15:25,640 Like almost every penny my mom would have made by going to work 1559 01:15:25,640 --> 01:15:27,720 at a certain point would have just been taxed out. 1560 01:15:27,720 --> 01:15:29,960 She would have made 1/3 of whatever the salary was. 1561 01:15:31,240 --> 01:15:33,080 Then there's the opportunity cost that you have to add on top 1562 01:15:33,080 --> 01:15:34,480 of it anyway, just really interesting. 1563 01:15:34,600 --> 01:15:36,360 But this is a real American problem. 1564 01:15:36,400 --> 01:15:38,440 Affordability for whatever reason, whether it's talking 1565 01:15:38,440 --> 01:15:40,720 about childcare or whether the fact that Americans are just 1566 01:15:40,720 --> 01:15:43,600 struggling to be able to to put food on the table or all the 1567 01:15:43,600 --> 01:15:45,760 other kind of things, right. There's lots of different 1568 01:15:45,760 --> 01:15:48,120 domestic priorities that are far more important. 1569 01:15:48,240 --> 01:15:50,080 And guess what? Your money is going to get 1570 01:15:50,080 --> 01:15:52,760 stretched because as we talked about yesterday, we're spending 1571 01:15:52,760 --> 01:15:54,840 money on a war effort, which means we're building bombs, 1572 01:15:54,840 --> 01:15:56,880 we're building munitions, we're fielding, all these things that 1573 01:15:56,880 --> 01:15:59,120 are disposable. In time of war, we tend to move 1574 01:15:59,120 --> 01:16:01,800 into theater and then leave, you know, 10s of, of billions of 1575 01:16:01,800 --> 01:16:03,360 dollars worth of material and equipment. 1576 01:16:04,120 --> 01:16:05,800 We have to build out infrastructure that gets 1577 01:16:05,800 --> 01:16:07,640 exploded and then we have to build it again. 1578 01:16:07,960 --> 01:16:09,520 And that's just what militaries do. 1579 01:16:10,040 --> 01:16:12,240 But all that money comes from somewhere and it comes from 1580 01:16:12,240 --> 01:16:15,280 taxing you and it comes from taxing you. 1581 01:16:15,280 --> 01:16:16,440 That means there's an opportunity cost. 1582 01:16:16,440 --> 01:16:18,480 Either we're going to just keep spending more money on military 1583 01:16:18,640 --> 01:16:24,280 plus the things we want, or they're just going to do it in a 1584 01:16:24,280 --> 01:16:26,600 deficit and we're going to get taxed so that our kids are going 1585 01:16:26,600 --> 01:16:28,000 to pay for it, which sounds awesome. 1586 01:16:28,840 --> 01:16:32,240 Anyway, Tucker's point being there are seriously more 1587 01:16:32,240 --> 01:16:35,040 important priorities that we could be looking at and we are 1588 01:16:35,040 --> 01:16:36,400 not. And that's what's called 1589 01:16:36,400 --> 01:16:39,120 opportunity cost. The opportunity cost of focusing 1590 01:16:39,120 --> 01:16:42,760 in our our energy and our media coverage and all the other kind 1591 01:16:42,760 --> 01:16:44,640 of nonsense that goes along with this. 1592 01:16:45,040 --> 01:16:49,520 It basically comes down to what are we not working on? 1593 01:16:49,560 --> 01:16:51,120 Oh, we're not working on the domestic agenda. 1594 01:16:51,120 --> 01:16:53,200 And more importantly, we're not covering this story, which I 1595 01:16:53,200 --> 01:16:55,080 know we've covered before, but I'm going to do it today again 1596 01:16:55,720 --> 01:16:59,440 because it's freaking wild day #2 yesterday of Kristi Noem 1597 01:16:59,680 --> 01:17:03,320 being grilled about this Pro Publica piece. 1598 01:17:03,320 --> 01:17:06,720 And kudos to Pro Publica, which doesn't have a normal place in 1599 01:17:06,720 --> 01:17:09,360 most people's news cycle. They're not really well 1600 01:17:09,360 --> 01:17:13,200 publicized, but they are doing real good work, real decent 1601 01:17:13,200 --> 01:17:15,560 work. This firm tied to Christy Noem 1602 01:17:15,560 --> 01:17:19,120 secretly got money from a $220 million DHS ad contract. 1603 01:17:19,520 --> 01:17:23,920 Switch out Christy Noem and put in Alejandro Mayorkas, the DHS 1604 01:17:23,920 --> 01:17:28,240 secretary under Joe Biden. It took $220 million to do 1605 01:17:28,240 --> 01:17:29,880 advertisements with his face on it. 1606 01:17:29,880 --> 01:17:31,360 Are you pissed off? That's all I want to know. 1607 01:17:31,360 --> 01:17:32,400 I want you to do the mirror test. 1608 01:17:32,560 --> 01:17:35,560 Hold it up and say it's not my guy, it's their guy. 1609 01:17:35,800 --> 01:17:38,920 Am I pissed? If the DHS secretary is doing a 1610 01:17:39,200 --> 01:17:43,320 propaganda pro campaign and attempting to fluff his own 1611 01:17:43,320 --> 01:17:45,800 image up the same way that we're paying for Cash Patel to have a 1612 01:17:45,800 --> 01:17:48,400 personal publicist, would you be pissed? 1613 01:17:49,360 --> 01:17:52,640 And you should be. This story was written November 1614 01:17:52,640 --> 01:17:55,040 14th of 2025. It was published first thing in 1615 01:17:55,040 --> 01:17:56,800 the morning. The company is being run by the 1616 01:17:56,800 --> 01:18:00,440 husband of Christy Gnome's chief spokesperson. 1617 01:18:00,440 --> 01:18:03,440 A woman named Trisha Mclaughlin's husband got a huge 1618 01:18:03,440 --> 01:18:06,840 chunk of a no bid contract. And then it sounds like she may 1619 01:18:06,840 --> 01:18:09,240 have misspoken Underoath when she was talking about this 1620 01:18:09,240 --> 01:18:11,000 stuff. So that's freaking wild. 1621 01:18:11,200 --> 01:18:15,000 So let's go ahead and pull up a really good exchange with 1622 01:18:15,000 --> 01:18:18,000 Christy Gnome. This one might be the most 1623 01:18:18,000 --> 01:18:21,560 salacious version of it. And notice she doesn't answer. 1624 01:18:22,040 --> 01:18:24,280 She dresses what I think. I think my buddy Steve friend 1625 01:18:24,280 --> 01:18:28,120 refers to as the Fox News like a boomer sex doll or blow up doll. 1626 01:18:28,840 --> 01:18:31,640 It's not a very nice thing to say, but she's so cosmetically 1627 01:18:31,640 --> 01:18:33,320 made-up. She's got hair extensions. 1628 01:18:33,320 --> 01:18:36,520 She's got a face full of makeup. If you ever see a high, you 1629 01:18:36,520 --> 01:18:39,240 know, definition zoom in of her face, you look like you could 1630 01:18:39,240 --> 01:18:42,560 paint a canvas of it and get a really nice beige smeared across 1631 01:18:42,560 --> 01:18:45,800 a large, large space because it's caked and piled on there. 1632 01:18:47,080 --> 01:18:50,280 Her real skin is nothing like what they actually show her at 1633 01:18:51,400 --> 01:18:53,880 and how interesting that the what is he? 1634 01:18:53,880 --> 01:18:56,000 What does he call her? The Fox News, the Barbie blow up 1635 01:18:56,000 --> 01:18:58,680 sex doll or whatever she is the gross. 1636 01:18:59,800 --> 01:19:02,400 She can't answer whether or not she's been boning one of the 1637 01:19:02,400 --> 01:19:04,800 guys who works for her. And then she goes on this tirade 1638 01:19:04,800 --> 01:19:06,520 about how he's a quote, UN quote, special governmental 1639 01:19:06,520 --> 01:19:08,080 employee. And there's bunches of them and 1640 01:19:08,080 --> 01:19:11,560 it's allowed all. That's super gross. 1641 01:19:12,920 --> 01:19:15,440 And if it was anybody else in any other administration, you'd 1642 01:19:15,440 --> 01:19:18,160 be horrified by it. But because people are so 1643 01:19:18,160 --> 01:19:20,040 tribal, we've got to the point where people are going to 1644 01:19:20,040 --> 01:19:22,280 actually ignore this and they're going to be mad at the Democrat 1645 01:19:22,280 --> 01:19:23,880 lady. I side with the Democrats on 1646 01:19:23,880 --> 01:19:25,040 this one. They're correct, by the way. 1647 01:19:25,040 --> 01:19:27,160 So did a bunch of Republicans, including John Kennedy. 1648 01:19:27,160 --> 01:19:29,080 We played it yesterday. Here's a question. 1649 01:19:29,080 --> 01:19:30,640 Are you having sex with your employee? 1650 01:19:30,760 --> 01:19:33,720 And she has no answer. That's not it. 1651 01:19:33,720 --> 01:19:36,640 Here it is. So, Secretary Noam, at any time 1652 01:19:36,640 --> 01:19:40,560 during your tenure as director of Department of Homeland 1653 01:19:40,560 --> 01:19:44,600 Security, have you had sexual relations with Corey 1654 01:19:44,600 --> 01:19:48,320 Lewandowski? Mr. Chairman, I am shocked that 1655 01:19:48,320 --> 01:19:51,960 we're going down and peddling tabloid garbage in this 1656 01:19:51,960 --> 01:19:53,320 committee today. Reclaiming. 1657 01:19:53,320 --> 01:19:56,000 And ma'am, one thing that I would tell you is that he is a 1658 01:19:56,000 --> 01:19:58,640 special government employee who works for the White House. 1659 01:19:58,880 --> 01:20:01,200 There are thousands of them in the federal government. 1660 01:20:01,200 --> 01:20:04,760 So, reclaiming as an advisor. But wait, were you boning him or 1661 01:20:04,760 --> 01:20:07,360 were you not boning him at any point while you were working 1662 01:20:07,360 --> 01:20:08,760 there? Super easy question. 1663 01:20:08,760 --> 01:20:11,960 It is OK for you to be no authority by the question. 1664 01:20:12,040 --> 01:20:15,640 It is OK for you to be no authority by the question, but 1665 01:20:15,640 --> 01:20:18,720 it is also a real question. So what I would say and you 1666 01:20:18,720 --> 01:20:21,720 should be able to answer what we do at the Department of Homeland 1667 01:20:21,720 --> 01:20:25,120 St. every single and without any hesitation every single day is 1668 01:20:25,120 --> 01:20:28,560 to protect if someone is asked to make decisions you or any 1669 01:20:28,560 --> 01:20:31,240 federal official is sleeping with their subordinate that. 1670 01:20:32,080 --> 01:20:33,800 Are you sleeping with your subordinate? 1671 01:20:33,800 --> 01:20:35,840 Yes or no? Should be absolutely not. 1672 01:20:35,840 --> 01:20:37,680 Thank you for the question. I'm glad to clear that up. 1673 01:20:40,600 --> 01:20:43,800 I'm, I'm cringing right now with everything I have. 1674 01:20:44,600 --> 01:20:45,920 Look at that face. Look at that pause. 1675 01:20:47,320 --> 01:20:49,480 You asked me something and I cannot. 1676 01:20:49,560 --> 01:20:52,200 I She can't tell a lie either. She's in modern George 1677 01:20:52,200 --> 01:20:53,720 Washington. She cannot tell a lie. 1678 01:20:53,720 --> 01:20:55,520 She chopped down the Cherry Tree, but we're going to talk 1679 01:20:55,520 --> 01:20:58,000 about a different kind of tree. She was like, there are no pecan 1680 01:20:58,000 --> 01:21:00,720 trees in the orchard that anyone has said could not be touched. 1681 01:21:00,720 --> 01:21:05,280 And therefore, Oh my God, just say no or don't. 1682 01:21:05,600 --> 01:21:09,080 Here's The funny thing. When you don't say the answer to 1683 01:21:09,080 --> 01:21:11,760 a really simple question like this, the odds are is that 1684 01:21:11,760 --> 01:21:13,160 somebody probably has the proof on it. 1685 01:21:13,160 --> 01:21:15,200 That's probably where it gets really shit and sketchy. 1686 01:21:15,200 --> 01:21:17,480 So OK. I have the easiest You should be 1687 01:21:17,480 --> 01:21:21,080 wanting to answer that question because it is not about your 1688 01:21:21,080 --> 01:21:23,280 senses. It is about your. 1689 01:21:23,480 --> 01:21:26,920 That kind of garbage. It's about reclaiming my time so 1690 01:21:26,960 --> 01:21:30,840 that I can hear my recognize. Belongs time belongs to the 1691 01:21:30,840 --> 01:21:34,200 general lady from California. The the the time does belong to 1692 01:21:34,200 --> 01:21:37,400 her. But what I love is imagine when 1693 01:21:37,400 --> 01:21:38,720 you're in the right. Have you guys ever been in a 1694 01:21:38,720 --> 01:21:40,440 question where someone asked you something really offensive? 1695 01:21:40,440 --> 01:21:43,560 I did this with James O'Keefe. They said something really dumb 1696 01:21:43,880 --> 01:21:45,600 during one of the depositions I did with O'Keefe. 1697 01:21:45,920 --> 01:21:49,560 And they're like, have you ever talked dirty to your wife? 1698 01:21:50,200 --> 01:21:53,240 And my, my attorneys like objection, like, you know, it 1699 01:21:53,240 --> 01:21:55,400 doesn't need to be answered. And I was like, no, but I'll 1700 01:21:55,400 --> 01:21:57,080 answer you. No, The answer is no. 1701 01:21:57,080 --> 01:21:58,480 I have a ton of respect for my wife. 1702 01:21:58,480 --> 01:21:59,840 That's not the kind of relationship we have. 1703 01:21:59,840 --> 01:22:01,280 So this is not really a big deal. 1704 01:22:02,840 --> 01:22:05,240 That woman is married. Did you sleep with one of your 1705 01:22:05,240 --> 01:22:06,600 employees? Should be like, thanks so much 1706 01:22:06,600 --> 01:22:08,000 for giving me the opportunity to address this. 1707 01:22:08,160 --> 01:22:10,000 No, I know there's been a lot of rumors. 1708 01:22:10,080 --> 01:22:12,320 They're all false. I can say that unequivocally. 1709 01:22:12,520 --> 01:22:14,560 Thank you for the time. Do you have any other questions 1710 01:22:14,560 --> 01:22:15,960 for me? This is super easy. 1711 01:22:16,640 --> 01:22:18,000 I'm not offended by the question. 1712 01:22:18,000 --> 01:22:22,080 I think it's offensive that you think it's important or it's 1713 01:22:22,080 --> 01:22:23,840 really, really bad. And I'm I, I welcome the 1714 01:22:23,840 --> 01:22:25,200 opportunity to straighten the record out. 1715 01:22:25,560 --> 01:22:27,320 By the way, this goes on for a little longer on you, but it'd 1716 01:22:27,320 --> 01:22:28,960 be nice if you would let her respond. 1717 01:22:29,200 --> 01:22:32,160 I will. I want to let you know it is 1718 01:22:32,160 --> 01:22:34,560 about your judgement and decision making. 1719 01:22:34,560 --> 01:22:38,800 It is about the 260,000 employees that work under you 1720 01:22:39,160 --> 01:22:42,400 that want to make sure that you are giving information and 1721 01:22:42,400 --> 01:22:45,120 making decisions clearly. It is about conflict of 1722 01:22:45,160 --> 01:22:46,480 interest. That's all true. 1723 01:22:46,480 --> 01:22:49,040 It's about a national security risk. 1724 01:22:49,240 --> 01:22:50,920 Also true. Department of Homeland Security 1725 01:22:50,920 --> 01:22:57,800 was created right after 911 to protect the homeland, and DHS 1726 01:22:57,800 --> 01:23:00,840 has circulated an internal bulletin to law enforcement 1727 01:23:00,840 --> 01:23:04,520 partners warning that the conflict of the war we're in 1728 01:23:04,720 --> 01:23:08,720 could inspire lone actors or small scale cyber activity 1729 01:23:08,720 --> 01:23:12,760 inside the United States, according to a memo obtained by 1730 01:23:12,760 --> 01:23:15,720 ABC News. So American lives are at risk. 1731 01:23:15,720 --> 01:23:19,400 The people who work for you are at risk and they want to know 1732 01:23:19,400 --> 01:23:25,040 that the person at the top you, they're making decisions 1733 01:23:25,160 --> 01:23:27,080 clearly. That's a great. 1734 01:23:27,400 --> 01:23:32,200 Without any sort of cloudiness and that they're your decisions 1735 01:23:32,200 --> 01:23:35,560 because you're the secretary who was confirmed. 1736 01:23:36,680 --> 01:23:40,800 That's what this is about, saving the lives of Americans 1737 01:23:40,800 --> 01:23:43,560 and not costing them millions of dollars. 1738 01:23:44,760 --> 01:23:47,320 I mean, it's hard to argue with what she's talking about there. 1739 01:23:47,320 --> 01:23:48,440 That's not the most salacious thing. 1740 01:23:48,440 --> 01:23:50,680 That's just the thing that it should have been an easy slam 1741 01:23:50,680 --> 01:23:51,960 dunk answer. By the way, that's a great 1742 01:23:51,960 --> 01:23:53,440 opportunity to say great messaging. 1743 01:23:53,440 --> 01:23:55,680 Like, no, I don't. I'm faithful to my marriage. 1744 01:23:56,240 --> 01:23:58,560 The reports are all false. Thank you for giving an 1745 01:23:58,560 --> 01:24:01,200 opportunity for me to say it. Really welcome it. 1746 01:24:01,200 --> 01:24:02,720 Do you have any other questions that I can answer? 1747 01:24:02,720 --> 01:24:05,600 I'd love to be, you know, clear these people are bad at PR and 1748 01:24:05,600 --> 01:24:07,480 they're supposed to be doing PR. And the reason why people are 1749 01:24:07,480 --> 01:24:09,920 bad is that when you catch me on my back foot because I know I'm 1750 01:24:09,920 --> 01:24:11,440 in the wrong, then it's really hard. 1751 01:24:11,440 --> 01:24:14,040 Then I then I start making counter accusations, right. 1752 01:24:14,160 --> 01:24:15,800 This is the the thing one of my buddies used to say. 1753 01:24:15,800 --> 01:24:18,040 It's the it's the number one rule they teach you when you go 1754 01:24:18,040 --> 01:24:19,560 to spy school. I don't think he was a spy, but 1755 01:24:19,560 --> 01:24:21,440 he used to say this. He said, what are you supposed 1756 01:24:21,440 --> 01:24:24,960 to do? Confirm nothing, deny 1757 01:24:24,960 --> 01:24:27,480 everything, make counter accusations. 1758 01:24:28,280 --> 01:24:30,160 You guys ever heard that before? Because that's what just 1759 01:24:30,160 --> 01:24:33,200 happened. Confirm nothing, deny 1760 01:24:33,200 --> 01:24:36,200 everything, sort of make counter accusations. 1761 01:24:36,200 --> 01:24:39,440 She left to deny everything because she couldn't even do it. 1762 01:24:40,080 --> 01:24:44,680 OK, now let's talk about money, $220 million seemed like a lot 1763 01:24:44,680 --> 01:24:46,480 of money. Seems like a lot of money to 1764 01:24:46,480 --> 01:24:48,760 spend on an advertising campaign to put that lady's face out 1765 01:24:48,760 --> 01:24:51,120 there in the world. Seems like something that I 1766 01:24:51,120 --> 01:24:55,200 don't need as an American. I don't need faces and pictures. 1767 01:24:55,200 --> 01:24:58,160 I was always irritated when I saw Ali Henry Orcas's face at 1768 01:24:58,160 --> 01:24:59,560 the airport. I was like who made this damn 1769 01:24:59,560 --> 01:25:01,120 video? Why do I have to look at this 1770 01:25:01,120 --> 01:25:04,200 bald freaking Weiner standing in front of me telling me that I'm 1771 01:25:04,200 --> 01:25:07,000 about to get touched by TSA and how happy he was that we're 1772 01:25:07,000 --> 01:25:10,040 traveling. Like F you bro stop making 1773 01:25:10,040 --> 01:25:11,800 videos. At least they were made in Adhs 1774 01:25:11,800 --> 01:25:13,640 studio from what I can tell. Maybe I don't know. 1775 01:25:16,480 --> 01:25:22,200 Here is the here's the congressman from what's his 1776 01:25:22,200 --> 01:25:25,600 name. His name's Nagus, I think from 1777 01:25:25,600 --> 01:25:27,800 Colorado. And I've been watching some of 1778 01:25:27,800 --> 01:25:30,000 his questions and he's very sober. 1779 01:25:30,000 --> 01:25:33,240 He's very articulate and he seems to be pretty squared away. 1780 01:25:33,240 --> 01:25:36,120 Like I probably disagree with all of his politics, but I don't 1781 01:25:36,120 --> 01:25:38,400 disagree with people asking reasonable questions and 1782 01:25:38,400 --> 01:25:40,720 reasonable ways that are not stupid gotchas there. 1783 01:25:40,880 --> 01:25:43,640 He's not like a falling asleep at the table where you've got 1784 01:25:44,000 --> 01:25:46,240 some of these other kind of dirt bags that are 1000 years old. 1785 01:25:46,240 --> 01:25:47,800 He's young, he's sharp, he's honed in. 1786 01:25:48,040 --> 01:25:50,440 He kind of reminds me of like a like a left wing version of 1787 01:25:50,440 --> 01:25:52,840 Brandon Gill, who also does a really good job of like honing 1788 01:25:52,840 --> 01:25:53,800 in. This is what we're talking 1789 01:25:53,800 --> 01:25:55,160 about. These are things if you're going 1790 01:25:55,160 --> 01:25:57,640 to do a gotcha, do it well. This is a gotcha. 1791 01:25:57,640 --> 01:25:58,720 That doesn't sound like a gotcha. 1792 01:25:58,720 --> 01:26:00,720 And the reason it's a gotcha is because they probably did what's 1793 01:26:00,720 --> 01:26:03,480 called fraud. Nasty, disgusting. 1794 01:26:04,400 --> 01:26:06,040 Hundreds of millions of dollars in fraud. 1795 01:26:06,600 --> 01:26:10,640 I want to discuss in greater detail the expansion of 1796 01:26:10,720 --> 01:26:13,840 advertising in your department under your tenure, and I believe 1797 01:26:13,840 --> 01:26:16,280 you testified regarding some of these matters yesterday in front 1798 01:26:16,280 --> 01:26:19,920 of the United States Senate. In particular, I want to discuss 1799 01:26:20,240 --> 01:26:23,640 the department's 200 million dollar, $220 million ad 1800 01:26:23,640 --> 01:26:25,920 campaign. This is the ad campaign that 1801 01:26:26,360 --> 01:26:28,480 featured you at Mount Rushmore. You're familiar with this ad 1802 01:26:28,480 --> 01:26:30,640 campaign, correct? I am familiar with it. 1803 01:26:30,640 --> 01:26:31,640 It was an ad. Campaign that was. 1804 01:26:32,000 --> 01:26:33,400 I'm going to ask you some questions about it, Madam 1805 01:26:33,400 --> 01:26:36,520 Secretary. So as I understand it, this is a 1806 01:26:36,520 --> 01:26:40,760 $220 million ad campaign. It's split between two 1807 01:26:40,760 --> 01:26:43,720 contractors. One of those contractors got 1808 01:26:43,720 --> 01:26:47,560 $143 million. That contractor is called Safe 1809 01:26:47,600 --> 01:26:50,080 America Media, correct? Correct. 1810 01:26:50,120 --> 01:26:53,840 OK. That company is affiliated with 1811 01:26:54,320 --> 01:26:57,520 a former political director of the National Republican 1812 01:26:57,520 --> 01:27:01,640 Congressional Committee. Now, yesterday you testified, I 1813 01:27:01,640 --> 01:27:05,000 think I'm quoting you, right? You said, quote, in reference to 1814 01:27:05,000 --> 01:27:08,400 this contract, they quote, it went out to a competitive bid. 1815 01:27:09,200 --> 01:27:13,320 Do you stand by that statement? It was a no bid contract where 1816 01:27:13,320 --> 01:27:15,600 two vendors were. It was a no bid. 1817 01:27:15,680 --> 01:27:20,760 Contract It would have been a. Maybe if you did less time 1818 01:27:20,760 --> 01:27:22,760 putting your makeup on and your hair extensions you'd know the 1819 01:27:22,760 --> 01:27:24,640 difference between a no bid and a competitive bid. 1820 01:27:24,640 --> 01:27:26,400 Which by the way is a world of difference. 1821 01:27:26,400 --> 01:27:28,640 Very funny that she switched it up in 2 days. 1822 01:27:28,840 --> 01:27:30,760 I don't know if somebody read back her testimony and was like 1823 01:27:30,760 --> 01:27:34,040 yo lady, you said something that's not true. 1824 01:27:34,280 --> 01:27:36,800 You may not have meant to but that was factually inaccurate. 1825 01:27:36,800 --> 01:27:38,520 Now you're going to have to go out there and act like you 1826 01:27:38,520 --> 01:27:41,880 didn't say what you said. If it would have been a no bid 1827 01:27:41,880 --> 01:27:44,320 contract, if I'm using that correctly, it would it goes out 1828 01:27:44,320 --> 01:27:45,720 to two different vendors. Correct. 1829 01:27:45,720 --> 01:27:48,520 So it was not a competitive. Let me let me try to explain 1830 01:27:48,520 --> 01:27:52,680 what the discrepancy because a competitive bid is very 1831 01:27:52,680 --> 01:27:55,680 different than a no, no competitive bid and I'll just 1832 01:27:55,680 --> 01:27:59,800 explain why we know that your testimony yesterday when you 1833 01:27:59,800 --> 01:28:04,840 said again I'll quote it went out to a competitive bid is 1834 01:28:04,840 --> 01:28:07,200 untrue. The reason we know it's untrue 1835 01:28:07,600 --> 01:28:10,560 is because under federal law, your agency is required, 1836 01:28:11,160 --> 01:28:14,680 whenever the agency decides to skip competitive bidding, to 1837 01:28:14,680 --> 01:28:17,320 file a notice with the public explaining why. 1838 01:28:17,560 --> 01:28:20,200 And in this case, your agency filed a notice. 1839 01:28:22,400 --> 01:28:24,360 Yikes. So she claimed it was a 1840 01:28:24,360 --> 01:28:26,920 competitive bid and the first thing you can get things wrong, 1841 01:28:26,920 --> 01:28:29,840 it happens. Then you have to be confronted 1842 01:28:29,840 --> 01:28:32,600 by your own agency's notice saying that not only was it not 1843 01:28:32,600 --> 01:28:34,200 competitive, but it was a non competitive. 1844 01:28:34,200 --> 01:28:35,920 And here's the reasons why it was non competitive. 1845 01:28:35,920 --> 01:28:38,480 And by the way, the non competitive reasons are freaking 1846 01:28:38,480 --> 01:28:40,760 atrocious. And they gave it to a company 1847 01:28:40,760 --> 01:28:43,280 that had been in existence for like 8 to 11 days. 1848 01:28:43,880 --> 01:28:47,600 And the person who ran the company was an RNC operative. 1849 01:28:48,640 --> 01:28:50,600 OK, he's about to explain all this stuff. 1850 01:28:51,440 --> 01:28:54,440 She's getting hit in the face with her own words, with her own 1851 01:28:54,440 --> 01:28:57,560 agency's movements. And her action was is to flip 1852 01:28:57,560 --> 01:28:59,080 hair behind her. There's multiple pictures that 1853 01:28:59,080 --> 01:29:00,840 were online when I was looking. I couldn't find a high red 1854 01:29:00,840 --> 01:29:02,080 version of her flipping the hair. 1855 01:29:02,240 --> 01:29:05,600 But that actually seems it's like, but I'm pretty, that seems 1856 01:29:05,600 --> 01:29:07,800 like the the fence right here because there is no excuse for 1857 01:29:07,800 --> 01:29:10,160 what they did. And she's trying to explain away 1858 01:29:10,160 --> 01:29:15,680 something where they gave $143 million, handed it to a company 1859 01:29:15,680 --> 01:29:18,440 that just got created and that company turned around and then 1860 01:29:18,440 --> 01:29:24,400 hired one of her political buddies who ran $8 million worth 1861 01:29:24,400 --> 01:29:26,080 of advertising for the state of North Dakota. 1862 01:29:26,080 --> 01:29:28,400 We talked about that yesterday. We played some clips about that 1863 01:29:29,200 --> 01:29:32,080 who was also married to one of her chief spokespersons. 1864 01:29:33,240 --> 01:29:35,240 Trish Mclaughlin's husband is the one who received that. 1865 01:29:35,240 --> 01:29:37,280 Trish McLaughlin is the spokesperson that we saw the 1866 01:29:37,280 --> 01:29:38,560 most. She's the blonde haired lady 1867 01:29:38,680 --> 01:29:40,720 we've seen talking on on behalf of DHS. 1868 01:29:41,320 --> 01:29:44,520 This is exactly what basic fraud and corruption looks like. 1869 01:29:44,520 --> 01:29:47,600 This is like this is corruption. There's no other way to describe 1870 01:29:47,600 --> 01:29:49,560 it. And the case is really, really 1871 01:29:49,560 --> 01:29:51,640 clear and it's being laid out in this testimony. 1872 01:29:51,920 --> 01:29:54,800 And her answer is to flip hair and blink a lot. 1873 01:29:54,800 --> 01:29:58,240 Aware of that right justification and approval for 1874 01:29:58,240 --> 01:30:02,800 other than full and open competition, your agency made a 1875 01:30:02,800 --> 01:30:07,920 decision not to proceed with competitive bidding and one of 1876 01:30:07,920 --> 01:30:11,640 the contractors that got the award was this Safe America 1877 01:30:11,640 --> 01:30:15,160 Media company that received $143 million. 1878 01:30:15,400 --> 01:30:18,360 Many vendors got the chance to look at that contract and to 1879 01:30:18,360 --> 01:30:21,240 participate in it, so that is why the two of them. 1880 01:30:21,240 --> 01:30:25,000 Were Madam, Madam Secretary, I'll read from the notice from 1881 01:30:25,000 --> 01:30:28,840 your agency. Yesterday, she said that the 1882 01:30:29,680 --> 01:30:33,120 career staff at DHS are the ones who determined which ones to go 1883 01:30:33,120 --> 01:30:34,560 with. Now, suddenly she knows how it 1884 01:30:34,560 --> 01:30:36,320 was selected. Given the immediate action to 1885 01:30:36,320 --> 01:30:38,400 significantly reduce illegal immigration and border 1886 01:30:38,400 --> 01:30:44,440 crossings, DHS invited, excuse me, identified 4 companies, four 1887 01:30:44,840 --> 01:30:47,640 of the hundreds of thousands of companies in the United States, 1888 01:30:47,840 --> 01:30:50,880 but you identified 4. One of those is this Safe 1889 01:30:50,880 --> 01:30:53,000 America Media company. Where is Safe America Media 1890 01:30:53,120 --> 01:30:56,120 headquartered? I don't know either, Madam 1891 01:30:56,120 --> 01:30:57,320 Secretary. We can't find it. 1892 01:30:57,760 --> 01:31:01,800 We can't find a website. We did find an address that's 1893 01:31:01,800 --> 01:31:03,640 registered for this company. Do you know where that address 1894 01:31:03,640 --> 01:31:05,760 is? Is there a problem with this 1895 01:31:05,760 --> 01:31:07,600 contract? I'll tell you about Madam 1896 01:31:07,600 --> 01:31:10,680 Secretary, The address is registered to a political 1897 01:31:10,760 --> 01:31:12,680 operative. Madam, Madam Secretary, the 1898 01:31:12,840 --> 01:31:14,640 company, and then I'll give you an opportunity to respond. 1899 01:31:14,800 --> 01:31:18,880 The company is registered to a political operative in Virginia. 1900 01:31:19,120 --> 01:31:22,600 Do you know just by way of example, whether this company 1901 01:31:22,600 --> 01:31:26,920 that received $143,000,000 in taxpayer dollars, has it ever 1902 01:31:26,920 --> 01:31:28,280 done work for the government before? 1903 01:31:28,400 --> 01:31:30,360 I don't. Don't know, I can't. 1904 01:31:31,400 --> 01:31:36,680 We pause it. He just said that the company 1905 01:31:36,680 --> 01:31:39,280 has no website, it has no public face. 1906 01:31:39,280 --> 01:31:43,400 It received $143 million contract with the federal 1907 01:31:43,400 --> 01:31:47,600 government, and it's based out of a dude's house in Virginia 1908 01:31:48,360 --> 01:31:51,640 who worked for the RNC. This is where it gets really 1909 01:31:51,640 --> 01:31:53,400 wild. Have they ever done business 1910 01:31:53,400 --> 01:31:55,000 with the federal government? Did you guys choose them because 1911 01:31:55,000 --> 01:31:56,520 they were the best choice? Because we've previously had 1912 01:31:56,520 --> 01:31:58,200 really good success? That's what he's asking the. 1913 01:31:58,280 --> 01:32:00,720 Answer is it has not. And do you know why we know 1914 01:32:00,720 --> 01:32:02,640 that? Because it was incorporated 8 1915 01:32:02,640 --> 01:32:07,560 days, 8 days before this contract went out. 1916 01:32:08,280 --> 01:32:12,640 You want the American people to believe that this is all above 1917 01:32:12,640 --> 01:32:17,240 board, that $143 million of taxpayer money just happened to 1918 01:32:17,240 --> 01:32:20,400 go to this one company that doesn't have a headquarters, 1919 01:32:20,400 --> 01:32:22,440 doesn't have a website, has never done work for the federal 1920 01:32:22,440 --> 01:32:25,360 government before, and is registered apparently, or 1921 01:32:25,360 --> 01:32:28,280 attached to a residence from a political operative. 1922 01:32:28,560 --> 01:32:31,040 And of course, one of the subcontractors of that contract, 1923 01:32:31,040 --> 01:32:35,960 as you know, is a political firm that's tied to to you back when 1924 01:32:35,960 --> 01:32:37,080 you were governor of South Dakota. 1925 01:32:37,160 --> 01:32:40,200 The reason why I ask these questions is that this is 1926 01:32:40,200 --> 01:32:44,960 taxpayer money. That's why, and I presume I 1927 01:32:44,960 --> 01:32:48,200 don't know this for a fact, but Senator Tillis noted yesterday 1928 01:32:48,520 --> 01:32:51,600 the way in which your agency is blocking the Inspector General 1929 01:32:51,600 --> 01:32:54,120 from 11 different investigations that it is trying to conduct. 1930 01:32:54,360 --> 01:32:56,320 I don't know if this happens to be one of them. 1931 01:32:56,720 --> 01:33:00,280 I certainly hope it is because eventually the facts will become 1932 01:33:00,280 --> 01:33:05,080 public in this regard and there are serious laws implicated, 1933 01:33:05,080 --> 01:33:09,120 conflict of interest laws, federal procurement laws, that I 1934 01:33:09,120 --> 01:33:11,360 believe. All done correctly. 1935 01:33:11,520 --> 01:33:13,920 All done, all done. She's probably right. 1936 01:33:14,360 --> 01:33:16,480 They probably did everything according to the law. 1937 01:33:16,640 --> 01:33:18,760 They probably did everything according to the procedures, 1938 01:33:18,760 --> 01:33:20,400 because that's how they do this stuff. 1939 01:33:20,440 --> 01:33:26,520 And they fleeced you for 10s of millions north of $100 million. 1940 01:33:26,720 --> 01:33:30,960 You, the taxpayer, me the taxpayer, saw a question in the 1941 01:33:30,960 --> 01:33:32,560 chat. Sometimes I see you guys scroll 1942 01:33:32,560 --> 01:33:35,240 the stuff by. Would that man who's asking the 1943 01:33:35,240 --> 01:33:39,440 question, Negus or whatever his name is, would he be asking the 1944 01:33:39,440 --> 01:33:42,160 same questions if it was Alejandro Mayorkas, if it was a 1945 01:33:42,160 --> 01:33:43,520 Democrat that was sitting in that chair? 1946 01:33:44,440 --> 01:33:49,520 I don't know. I don't care because if anybody 1947 01:33:49,520 --> 01:33:52,800 that works for the government is doing the thing, it's not about 1948 01:33:52,800 --> 01:33:54,200 team. That's the whole point here. 1949 01:33:54,200 --> 01:33:57,440 The truth has no agenda. The truth has no team. 1950 01:33:57,520 --> 01:34:00,200 It has no side. If you're involved in corruption 1951 01:34:00,560 --> 01:34:02,880 and somebody says, well, it's OK because it's our people doing 1952 01:34:02,880 --> 01:34:05,720 the corruption, screw you, please leave. 1953 01:34:05,960 --> 01:34:07,120 I don't want to be dealing with you. 1954 01:34:07,320 --> 01:34:09,480 Here's John Kennedy, he's a Republican. 1955 01:34:09,520 --> 01:34:12,040 He's asking the same questions. Why would that be? 1956 01:34:12,240 --> 01:34:16,880 Why would this woman be allowed to continue doing this job when 1957 01:34:16,880 --> 01:34:21,520 she's fleecing, taking money hand over fist, pushing her own 1958 01:34:21,520 --> 01:34:23,000 agenda? And why does she want it? 1959 01:34:23,240 --> 01:34:24,680 Why does she want to have her face out there? 1960 01:34:25,000 --> 01:34:28,160 All the indications that I have from folks that are working 1961 01:34:28,160 --> 01:34:30,360 inside DHS is that she intends to run for president. 1962 01:34:31,080 --> 01:34:33,880 If this woman runs for president, first I'll be 1963 01:34:33,880 --> 01:34:37,440 nauseous, and then second, I will do everything to point out 1964 01:34:37,440 --> 01:34:38,960 what a corrupt piece of garbage she is. 1965 01:34:39,200 --> 01:34:41,240 John Kennedy from yesterday, This is when she was in front of 1966 01:34:41,240 --> 01:34:42,560 the Senate. The thing you just saw was in 1967 01:34:42,560 --> 01:34:44,560 front of the House where she wouldn't answer whether or not 1968 01:34:44,560 --> 01:34:48,400 she's banging Corey Lewandowski. OK, very simple. 1969 01:34:49,680 --> 01:34:53,040 If you are involved in scumbaggery then you are being a 1970 01:34:53,040 --> 01:34:55,680 scumbag and you should be called to account for it. 1971 01:34:56,160 --> 01:35:05,120 How do you square that concern for waste, which I share with 1972 01:35:05,120 --> 01:35:14,440 the fact that you have spent $220 million running television 1973 01:35:14,440 --> 01:35:18,120 advertisements that feature you prominently? 1974 01:35:19,920 --> 01:35:23,080 Sir, the President tasked me with getting the message out to 1975 01:35:23,080 --> 01:35:25,840 the country and to other countries where we were seeing 1976 01:35:25,840 --> 01:35:29,360 the invasion come from, with, with putting commercials out 1977 01:35:29,360 --> 01:35:32,560 that told them that if they were in this country illegally, that 1978 01:35:32,560 --> 01:35:35,520 they needed to leave or we would detain them and remove them and 1979 01:35:35,520 --> 01:35:38,040 they'd not get the chance to come back to America the right 1980 01:35:38,040 --> 01:35:40,320 way. That has been extremely 1981 01:35:40,320 --> 01:35:43,800 effective. Ask you to run these 1982 01:35:43,800 --> 01:35:46,520 advertisements, is that right? We had that conversation. 1983 01:35:47,400 --> 01:35:51,280 We had that conversation. He's trying to get to the point, 1984 01:35:51,320 --> 01:35:54,000 which is to say, did Donald Trump tell you to run these ads? 1985 01:35:55,280 --> 01:35:58,480 That's all I want to know too. Did the president tell you to do 1986 01:35:58,480 --> 01:36:01,240 these things? And if so, then he's also part 1987 01:36:01,240 --> 01:36:04,080 of the problem there? Or did you have that 1988 01:36:04,080 --> 01:36:07,760 conversation and you got no answer and you decided to go 1989 01:36:07,760 --> 01:36:10,720 back and do it? Because if it's way better to 1990 01:36:10,720 --> 01:36:12,760 ask for forgiveness than it is to ask for permission in 1991 01:36:12,760 --> 01:36:14,040 something like this, wouldn't you think? 1992 01:36:14,440 --> 01:36:19,160 Station, Yes, Before I was put in this position and sworn in 1993 01:36:19,160 --> 01:36:21,120 and confirmed, and since then as well. 1994 01:36:21,360 --> 01:36:25,200 OK. Did you, did you bid at those, 1995 01:36:25,640 --> 01:36:27,840 those service contracts? Yes, they did. 1996 01:36:27,840 --> 01:36:31,080 They went out to a competitive bid and career officials at the 1997 01:36:31,080 --> 01:36:35,480 department chose who would do those advertising commercials. 1998 01:36:36,360 --> 01:36:38,760 OK, that is a false statement. While she's underoath. 1999 01:36:39,440 --> 01:36:43,200 We just know it because the DHS released contrary information. 2000 01:36:43,200 --> 01:36:45,560 Long prior. She made a definitive statement 2001 01:36:45,560 --> 01:36:46,640 about something that was not true. 2002 01:36:46,680 --> 01:36:48,360 Now you can make false statements and you can go back 2003 01:36:48,360 --> 01:36:51,760 and try to correct the record. She needs to be issuing a 2004 01:36:51,760 --> 01:36:54,720 correction of her false statement and she probably 2005 01:36:54,720 --> 01:36:57,560 should resign because you shouldn't be banging your 2006 01:36:57,560 --> 01:36:59,640 subordinates and you shouldn't be doing things like, I don't 2007 01:36:59,640 --> 01:37:02,320 know, doing a presidential campaign on the public dollar, 2008 01:37:02,320 --> 01:37:05,920 $220 million is a lot of money. Even if it's not a lot of money 2009 01:37:05,920 --> 01:37:08,760 compared to the federal budget. That's like that is a a shocking 2010 01:37:08,760 --> 01:37:10,720 amount of money for regular people to think about. 2011 01:37:10,760 --> 01:37:18,840 And the people that you ended up picking were people who had 2012 01:37:18,840 --> 01:37:22,240 formerly done your political work back in South Dakota, is 2013 01:37:22,240 --> 01:37:24,280 that right? No, that's not correct, Sir. 2014 01:37:24,360 --> 01:37:28,840 I No, it's not, Sir. We, the individuals who I 2015 01:37:28,840 --> 01:37:32,680 believe the careers who they chose, were two different media 2016 01:37:32,680 --> 01:37:35,880 firms. What she's saying and she's 2017 01:37:35,880 --> 01:37:39,560 going to finish her thought. You know, we didn't pick people 2018 01:37:39,680 --> 01:37:41,360 that had previously worked with us. 2019 01:37:41,400 --> 01:37:44,040 We picked people and those people picked people who 2020 01:37:44,040 --> 01:37:46,440 previously worked with us. We had a cut out which made it 2021 01:37:46,440 --> 01:37:49,320 legal. It's kind of like putting on the 2022 01:37:49,320 --> 01:37:51,720 Marshall Star because you just got sworn in as being a deputy 2023 01:37:51,720 --> 01:37:53,600 and then you can go do the doc holiday routine. 2024 01:37:53,880 --> 01:37:58,200 And this time it's legal, right? Getting I got a badge. 2025 01:37:58,200 --> 01:38:01,360 So now we can do the shootout. I can legally give money to 2026 01:38:01,360 --> 01:38:03,360 somebody who's going to give money to the person I want. 2027 01:38:03,360 --> 01:38:07,280 I can't give it to the person I want, but when I threaten the 2028 01:38:07,280 --> 01:38:09,840 career people that work for me to pick the right folks in a no 2029 01:38:09,840 --> 01:38:12,360 bid contract and part of the deal is, is that they turned 2030 01:38:12,360 --> 01:38:13,800 around. Can we get those emails? 2031 01:38:14,000 --> 01:38:16,880 Can we get all the comms on this communication like all the other 2032 01:38:16,880 --> 01:38:19,760 background knowledge and all the people deposed? 2033 01:38:20,040 --> 01:38:22,920 Shouldn't there be a federal investigation, maybe by OIG, 2034 01:38:22,920 --> 01:38:25,000 maybe by the FBI? Shouldn't we doing that game? 2035 01:38:26,560 --> 01:38:29,800 Shouldn't somebody be looking into where what this this what 2036 01:38:29,800 --> 01:38:32,120 looks like obvious corruption because it's so blatant. 2037 01:38:32,120 --> 01:38:36,320 There's only one step in between them, and if the Democrats did 2038 01:38:36,320 --> 01:38:38,680 it, I would be equally appalled. I don't care who does 2039 01:38:38,680 --> 01:38:41,880 corruption. I care if you take our money and 2040 01:38:41,880 --> 01:38:44,840 do something that serves your own personal interests. 2041 01:38:45,000 --> 01:38:47,120 And if you want to do it through one, cut out gross. 2042 01:38:47,680 --> 01:38:50,480 There's been conversation about their subcontractors, but we 2043 01:38:50,480 --> 01:38:54,520 have no legal authority to look into subcontractors on work like 2044 01:38:54,520 --> 01:38:55,640 that. OK. 2045 01:38:56,600 --> 01:39:00,600 And you're saying that you're testifying that President Trump 2046 01:39:01,440 --> 01:39:04,120 approved this ahead of time, so I'm understanding. 2047 01:39:05,320 --> 01:39:08,320 We had conversations about making sure that we were telling 2048 01:39:08,320 --> 01:39:11,560 people. No, ma'am, she's done this three 2049 01:39:11,560 --> 01:39:14,280 Times Now. Did Donald Trump approve this? 2050 01:39:14,400 --> 01:39:16,960 We had conversations. Did Donald Trump approve this 2051 01:39:16,960 --> 01:39:18,840 action? We had conversations. 2052 01:39:19,760 --> 01:39:21,560 You guys get it? She's a shitty liar. 2053 01:39:22,240 --> 01:39:25,440 I'll swear on this one. She's really bad at this. 2054 01:39:26,120 --> 01:39:29,320 She's also trying to dance around saying a lie underoath 2055 01:39:29,320 --> 01:39:31,720 even though she's already said things that are underoath. 2056 01:39:31,840 --> 01:39:36,040 I'm asking you, sorry to interrupt, but the President 2057 01:39:36,040 --> 01:39:42,520 approved ahead of time you spending $220 million running TV 2058 01:39:42,520 --> 01:39:46,040 ads across the country in which you are featured prominently. 2059 01:39:46,040 --> 01:39:47,800 Yes, Sir. We went through the legal 2060 01:39:47,800 --> 01:39:49,040 processes. Did it correct? 2061 01:39:49,040 --> 01:39:51,240 Did the President work with OMB? Yes. 2062 01:39:51,560 --> 01:39:53,920 He did. OK, now we've got the answer. 2063 01:39:53,920 --> 01:39:56,920 Cool. OK, Also, shut the F up. 2064 01:39:57,320 --> 01:39:59,880 The Dow is over 50,000, or at least it was one time. 2065 01:40:00,000 --> 01:40:02,560 The Dow hit a record 50,000. We should be talking about that. 2066 01:40:02,680 --> 01:40:04,920 The S&P was over 7000, We should be talking about that. 2067 01:40:04,960 --> 01:40:06,600 She would have been better off making those arguments. 2068 01:40:06,600 --> 01:40:09,040 Even Pam Bondi is smarter than this woman, and that is 2069 01:40:09,040 --> 01:40:11,760 terrifying because I think Pam Bondi's IQ hovers around just 2070 01:40:11,760 --> 01:40:15,800 under 100. Donald Trump keeps putting women 2071 01:40:15,800 --> 01:40:18,960 that he thinks looks nice and then they end up doing this like 2072 01:40:18,960 --> 01:40:21,960 just awful job. If you're going to be a liar, 2073 01:40:21,960 --> 01:40:25,280 just at least be good at it. They're not even good at it. 2074 01:40:25,520 --> 01:40:27,040 So that that disappoints me in a big way. 2075 01:40:27,040 --> 01:40:28,880 You know what else is really disappointing? 2076 01:40:28,880 --> 01:40:30,640 We're going to end with this. I thought there might be some 2077 01:40:30,640 --> 01:40:32,560 good news. The good news is, is that 2078 01:40:32,560 --> 01:40:36,640 Congress held a vote to decide whether or not they were going 2079 01:40:36,640 --> 01:40:40,080 to expose their slush fund. That pays off people who've been 2080 01:40:40,080 --> 01:40:42,960 sexually harassed or sexually abused by members of Congress 2081 01:40:43,200 --> 01:40:46,600 and members of the Senate. OK, they held a vote. 2082 01:40:47,760 --> 01:40:50,120 Nancy Mace got in front of her. I don't like Nancy Mace all that 2083 01:40:50,120 --> 01:40:53,560 much, but Nancy Mace got a vote out there on deciding whether or 2084 01:40:53,560 --> 01:40:58,840 not we, the people who pay for this crap, would be able to see 2085 01:40:59,000 --> 01:41:04,320 what goes on and how much we paid and to who and what the 2086 01:41:04,320 --> 01:41:06,640 allegations were supposed to be against these members of 2087 01:41:06,640 --> 01:41:09,080 Congress. What they did, we finally got 2088 01:41:09,080 --> 01:41:13,360 the vote. It went like this all right, I 2089 01:41:13,360 --> 01:41:18,440 support representative Mace Mace's subpoena here as well as 2090 01:41:18,440 --> 01:41:19,800 the amendment to it. And I just think it's really 2091 01:41:19,800 --> 01:41:23,440 disgusting how this institution protects itself because y'all 2092 01:41:23,440 --> 01:41:26,520 just half of them voted to send this stuff to House Ethics where 2093 01:41:26,520 --> 01:41:29,160 you know it's going to die. We know that members of Congress 2094 01:41:29,160 --> 01:41:32,280 are using taxpayer dollars to pay off sexual harassment. 2095 01:41:32,400 --> 01:41:35,400 We just had a member of Congress literally sexually harassing one 2096 01:41:35,400 --> 01:41:37,840 that then lit herself on fire and you guys all protected him. 2097 01:41:38,240 --> 01:41:41,160 You guys all protected my my own side, your side. 2098 01:41:41,160 --> 01:41:43,280 And so if you guys want to talk about about victims, if you want 2099 01:41:43,280 --> 01:41:45,160 to go out and virtue signal and then you guys are you're going 2100 01:41:45,160 --> 01:41:47,360 to kill her stuff on the floor and then try to pass, Yeah, of 2101 01:41:47,360 --> 01:41:48,960 course we should subpoena all this stuff. 2102 01:41:49,200 --> 01:41:51,160 But just I'm not going to sit here and play games. 2103 01:41:51,160 --> 01:41:53,120 I think it's a complete fraud. I think that's why the American 2104 01:41:53,120 --> 01:41:55,160 people hate us. I think the midterms are coming 2105 01:41:55,160 --> 01:41:56,640 up and everyone should go on record for this. 2106 01:41:56,880 --> 01:41:58,520 And I hope that members are exposed for this. 2107 01:41:58,520 --> 01:42:00,280 I hope it goes back, I think it to the 70s. 2108 01:42:00,480 --> 01:42:02,120 Because it's wrong that it's happening. 2109 01:42:02,120 --> 01:42:04,520 It's wrong that we cover up for. It's wrong that we can't center 2110 01:42:04,520 --> 01:42:07,280 our own side because people are busy making deals because you 2111 01:42:07,280 --> 01:42:09,200 guys want to center your side. It's a deal that's been cut, 2112 01:42:09,200 --> 01:42:10,240 people. Hate us for it. 2113 01:42:10,480 --> 01:42:15,560 So yeah, I support it. OK, good. 2114 01:42:16,160 --> 01:42:17,840 Well, she supports that resolution. 2115 01:42:18,080 --> 01:42:20,680 She forced a vote to get it done. 2116 01:42:21,440 --> 01:42:26,000 And then what happened? Oh, it lost dramatically and 2117 01:42:26,000 --> 01:42:36,120 overwhelmingly. It lost 357 to 65357 in that in 2118 01:42:36,120 --> 01:42:40,280 that House decided that they didn't want to reveal the 2119 01:42:40,280 --> 01:42:43,800 congressional slush fund that pays off for sexual malfeasance 2120 01:42:43,960 --> 01:42:47,400 and misconduct. And there's probably like $17 2121 01:42:47,400 --> 01:42:49,480 million in payouts is what we know so far. 2122 01:42:49,720 --> 01:42:51,160 Guess who's on the right side of things? 2123 01:42:51,160 --> 01:42:54,200 Tom Massie was turns out so was Nancy Mace. 2124 01:42:54,400 --> 01:42:57,440 That was Anna Paulina Luna, who is not particularly articulate 2125 01:42:57,440 --> 01:42:59,720 when she doesn't have talking points or a script, but she did 2126 01:42:59,720 --> 01:43:02,280 it as well. So there you have it. 2127 01:43:03,120 --> 01:43:04,080 That's what it ends up looking like. 2128 01:43:04,240 --> 01:43:05,760 That's freaking nauseating people. 2129 01:43:06,600 --> 01:43:07,960 It really is. It's just like the worst 2130 01:43:07,960 --> 01:43:10,200 possible news. It's super frustrating. 2131 01:43:11,200 --> 01:43:13,680 If you guys want to support a company that doesn't suck, check 2132 01:43:13,680 --> 01:43:15,240 out my friends over at Shield Arms. 2133 01:43:15,240 --> 01:43:17,800 I was just putting one of their rifles up on the on the 2134 01:43:17,800 --> 01:43:21,200 Tackleberry project wall. shieldarms.com promo code Kyle 2135 01:43:21,200 --> 01:43:23,200 will save you a couple of bucks. I'm not sure what the percentage 2136 01:43:23,200 --> 01:43:25,040 is that changes. Sometimes they have soft goods 2137 01:43:25,040 --> 01:43:26,720 if you want to look at a like a chest rig. 2138 01:43:26,720 --> 01:43:29,000 If you don't wear body armor, which most of you probably don't 2139 01:43:29,000 --> 01:43:31,400 wear body armor, but it is a nice way to be able to reload or 2140 01:43:31,400 --> 01:43:36,080 keep batteries or medical stuff or have a radio or whatever else 2141 01:43:36,080 --> 01:43:37,280 you might be doing. It's good for hiking and all 2142 01:43:37,280 --> 01:43:39,240 kinds of stuff like that, but it carries your munitions and 2143 01:43:39,240 --> 01:43:41,040 things like that. So check out shield arms for 2144 01:43:41,040 --> 01:43:42,640 their soft goods. Check out the rifles. 2145 01:43:42,640 --> 01:43:45,760 They make the single best folding lower for an AR. 2146 01:43:45,760 --> 01:43:47,960 If you build your own rifles, you should be using a a shield 2147 01:43:47,960 --> 01:43:50,120 platform. If you buy one completed, they 2148 01:43:50,120 --> 01:43:52,600 make a really good one too. There's an affiliate link in our 2149 01:43:52,840 --> 01:43:54,240 in our show description. You guys can click through 2150 01:43:54,240 --> 01:43:56,160 there. And I don't know what it pays 2151 01:43:56,160 --> 01:43:58,720 me, but it pays me something and more importantly, like they make 2152 01:43:58,720 --> 01:44:01,440 a really good product so I can 100% get behind what they're 2153 01:44:01,440 --> 01:44:02,880 selling. I've been to their factory 2154 01:44:03,240 --> 01:44:05,800 people who run the company are good people and what you're 2155 01:44:05,800 --> 01:44:08,520 seeing on the screen right now is my local gun dealer and the 2156 01:44:08,520 --> 01:44:10,360 product specialist kind of walking through it at the SHOT 2157 01:44:10,360 --> 01:44:12,000 Show two years ago. I think I've got some video from 2158 01:44:12,000 --> 01:44:15,320 their from their space this last SHOT Show as well. 2159 01:44:15,320 --> 01:44:16,960 All right, we need a palate cleanse of some kind. 2160 01:44:16,960 --> 01:44:19,480 Good God, don't we ever. Let's see if we can figure out 2161 01:44:19,480 --> 01:44:21,600 what it make us laugh just a little bit. 2162 01:44:21,600 --> 01:44:26,920 How about people waking up, finding out that we're at war 2163 01:44:26,920 --> 01:44:28,920 with Iran? They were like, man, I just want 2164 01:44:28,920 --> 01:44:30,600 to have breakfast. I was just trying to get through 2165 01:44:30,600 --> 01:44:32,600 my day. I'm going to go back to bed. 2166 01:44:32,680 --> 01:44:35,000 I think many of you guys probably see these shows and 2167 01:44:35,000 --> 01:44:36,400 then wish you could just start the day over. 2168 01:44:36,400 --> 01:44:38,320 Maybe we could do like a reset like a couple weeks ago. 2169 01:44:38,320 --> 01:44:41,400 A little time travel would be nice to not have to be pointing 2170 01:44:41,400 --> 01:44:43,240 out all this hypocrisy. But that's not an option. 2171 01:44:43,240 --> 01:44:49,120 So here we go. the US dropped Tomahawk missiles on Iran. 2172 01:44:49,960 --> 01:44:54,200 I just woke up in retaliation. Iran will block off 20% of the 2173 01:44:54,200 --> 01:44:56,480 world's oil. So expect oil prices to go way 2174 01:44:56,480 --> 01:44:58,240 up. And I get breakfast or at least 2175 01:44:58,240 --> 01:45:01,440 a cup of water first before you ruin my day with this horrible 2176 01:45:01,440 --> 01:45:04,800 news. 35,000 troops have been deployed or will be deployed and 2177 01:45:04,800 --> 01:45:07,600 the US president has said to expect casualties from the death 2178 01:45:07,600 --> 01:45:11,120 of American hero. I thought the airstrikes in June 2179 01:45:11,120 --> 01:45:14,560 on their nuclear sites wiped out that capacity based thing that 2180 01:45:14,680 --> 01:45:16,800 they still have it. Well, they're trying to rebuild 2181 01:45:16,800 --> 01:45:19,720 that nuclear capacity so that gives them a one free voucher, 2182 01:45:19,720 --> 01:45:23,840 all inclusive freedom package. I, I thought he was a no wars 2183 01:45:23,840 --> 01:45:25,920 president. What happened to that? 2184 01:45:26,280 --> 01:45:28,800 Well, make no mistake about it. This was not a limited air 2185 01:45:28,800 --> 01:45:32,360 strike. the US is at war with Iran and oh, did I forget that 2186 01:45:32,360 --> 01:45:34,200 we're trying to send a freedom package to Cuba. 2187 01:45:34,680 --> 01:45:37,520 I haven't even pooed yet. Well, it's actually pretty cool. 2188 01:45:37,520 --> 01:45:40,280 the US is trying to start an insurrection so that the Iranian 2189 01:45:40,280 --> 01:45:42,840 people will overthrow their own government where the people are 2190 01:45:42,840 --> 01:45:44,760 so oppressed. I mean, women can't go to 2191 01:45:44,760 --> 01:45:46,080 school. Acid is thrown on their. 2192 01:45:46,080 --> 01:45:51,560 I'm going to just go back to, yeah, if you listen to this 2193 01:45:51,560 --> 01:45:53,640 program and you work in an office, then you're probably 2194 01:45:53,640 --> 01:45:56,360 that guy who's out there spitting facts at people and 2195 01:45:56,520 --> 01:46:00,000 they just want to go back to sleep, literally, figuratively, 2196 01:46:00,040 --> 01:46:01,160 etcetera. Sorry. 2197 01:46:01,280 --> 01:46:04,080 I mean, the world, the world's got some sketchy things going on 2198 01:46:04,080 --> 01:46:05,640 it right now. So we should at least be open 2199 01:46:05,640 --> 01:46:07,600 minded about it and we should also be fair minded about 2200 01:46:07,600 --> 01:46:10,000 principles. If you're on either team and you 2201 01:46:10,000 --> 01:46:11,760 suck, then we're going to call them out here. 2202 01:46:12,480 --> 01:46:14,120 So we do anyway. Hopefully you're more informed. 2203 01:46:14,120 --> 01:46:15,840 Disagree with me with all the things. 2204 01:46:15,840 --> 01:46:17,920 Use facts. Don't just say I don't like what 2205 01:46:17,920 --> 01:46:19,280 you said because it doesn't help me any. 2206 01:46:19,280 --> 01:46:21,640 I actually am open to hearing your perspective. 2207 01:46:21,640 --> 01:46:23,840 Include links if you like, especially if you're doing 2208 01:46:24,200 --> 01:46:27,120 something on Rumble or if you're doing it on on YouTube, you guys 2209 01:46:27,120 --> 01:46:29,440 can drop a link in there and say here's some evidence of what you 2210 01:46:29,440 --> 01:46:31,520 said was inaccurate. This is why I support a 2211 01:46:31,520 --> 01:46:33,320 different opinion. I'll rate it. 2212 01:46:33,640 --> 01:46:35,800 I will. Thanks for being part of it. 2213 01:46:35,800 --> 01:46:37,280 Bacon Cheeseburger National for the win. 2214 01:46:37,280 --> 01:46:39,520 If you guys want to just, I don't know, do regular things 2215 01:46:39,520 --> 01:46:41,280 that normal Americans would have done 30 years ago. 2216 01:46:41,280 --> 01:46:43,240 That's what I keep hoping will happen, but there's no evidence 2217 01:46:43,240 --> 01:46:45,200 it's going to work. So we'll just keep doing what 2218 01:46:45,240 --> 01:46:46,520 we're doing here. I think we'll probably have a 2219 01:46:46,520 --> 01:46:48,040 friendly Friday tomorrow with Steve friend. 2220 01:46:48,240 --> 01:46:49,240 You guys can look forward to that. 2221 01:46:49,560 --> 01:46:52,280 Share the show call in shows tonight starts at 8:00 PM. 2222 01:46:52,360 --> 01:46:55,320 We will be doing that for the locals members, for the members 2223 01:46:55,320 --> 01:46:57,560 of our YouTube channel and you guys can sign up there at the 2224 01:46:57,560 --> 01:46:59,880 various places, Kyle seraphin.com or go to our 2225 01:47:00,160 --> 01:47:02,880 YouTube.
