00:01:12.460 audio-only version of my show. Welcome to Rebel Roundup ladies and gentlemen and the rest of you

00:01:33.500 in which we look back at some of the very best commentaries of the week by your favorite rebels.

00:01:38.480 I'm your host David Menzies. Well you'd think that after losing their majority status version 2.0 of

00:01:46.800 the Trudeau liberals would well they behave themselves and follow the rules and procedures and finally

00:01:53.480 deliver on those promises about being transparent. No that is clearly not the case. Sheila Gunn-Reed

00:02:01.200 shall explain all. And if you listen to the hysteria of the climate crusaders we only have maybe 10 or 12

00:02:09.360 good years left before we encounter our very own extinction event. But as if that wasn't bad enough

00:02:16.080 did you know that there's actually an element of racism when it comes to climate change? Well at least

00:02:22.760 according to St. Greta Thunberg Kian Bextie will try to make sense of this madness. And finally letters.

00:02:30.440 We get your letters. We get them every minute of every day. And I'll share some of your responses

00:02:35.080 regarding my report on Toronto resident Samuel Opoku who stands accused of dousing five innocent

00:02:43.080 individuals with liquefied human feces. But alas I was somewhat handcuffed in providing all the details

00:02:52.280 to you because you guessed it there's a publication ban in place. In any event those are your rebels.

00:02:59.480 Now let's round them up. Someone asked the Privy Council office. Now those are Justin Trudeau's

00:03:09.800 chief bureaucrats for and I quote documents on the number of employees in the Prime Minister's office

00:03:17.000 hired after November 4th 2015 that left by March 4th 2019 that were paid severance. The total amount of

00:03:24.520 those severance payments the number of those employees who also received separation pay and

00:03:30.680 the total amount of separation paid for those employees. Presumably the filer was asking about

00:03:37.480 Gerald Butts the former principal secretary to Justin Trudeau who as you'll recall left under a

00:03:43.480 cloud of scandal in February right in the middle of the SNC-Lavalin ethics investigation. The ATIP filer

00:03:50.520 also may have been asking about Claude-Eric Gagné who left the Prime Minister's office the previous

00:03:56.360 February after being on leave since November of 2017. He was investigated for harassing female

00:04:03.400 staffers. Now he denies the claims against him and left eventually on his own accord. Now those are the

00:04:09.640 two guys I would definitely want to know about. However in a shock to no one paying attention to how

00:04:15.400 Trudeau operates in the Prime Minister's office his office refused to disclose the individual amounts

00:04:21.080 and the individual names. Here's what the government did disclose. Look at that. Everything. All 14 names

00:04:28.040 are blacked out. The only information the government released was two line items at the bottom of the page.

00:04:34.920 The PMO paid out $118,000 in severance, $119,000 in separation pay to up to 14 people plus no doubt

00:04:44.040 additional vacation pay being paid out on top of it all. Well folks if you thought that going from a

00:04:49.480 majority government to a minority government in the last election was going to be a wake-up call for

00:04:54.760 the Trudeau Liberals in terms of being more transparent with the Canadian public guess again

00:05:02.040 to paraphrase that classic who song meet the old boss same as the old boss because apparently the

00:05:09.560 salaries and severances of those bureaucrats being paid by you the taxpayer well those are state secrets

00:05:19.960 and joining me now with more on this story is the host of the gun show Sheila Gunn-Reed. Welcome to

00:05:25.880 Rebel Roundup my friend. Hey David thanks for having me on the show. Well always a pleasure but Sheila first of

00:05:32.200 all the question arises is team Trudeau breaking any rules or guidelines by shielding this information

00:05:40.520 from the public in the first place? They absolutely are. Several rulings from the information commissioner

00:05:48.600 and standard generalized practice based on other rulings from the information commissioner say that

00:05:55.240 we are entitled to know at least the vague generalized uh ranges of these amounts like they could say

00:06:02.600 well we paid out between you know 10 and 15 thousand dollars or you know 100 to 125 thousand dollars

00:06:11.080 um but so they didn't do that they didn't release any of that they just gave us um totals um

00:06:19.880 just a cumulative total for 14 staff um and we don't know how much severance pay they got we don't

00:06:26.680 know how much um separation pay they got and we are also entitled to know their names because their

00:06:34.600 names are not secret their names are a matter of public record especially when every time they leave

00:06:41.560 the PMO somebody in the mainstream media writes a glowing report about how hard they were working in the PMO

00:06:48.040 to get all that severance pay and separation pay and they didn't do that and the information

00:06:52.600 commissioners actually ruled in our favor before when we appealed and appealed and appealed because

00:06:58.920 the uh prime minister's office and the Privy Council so the chief bureaucrats around Justin Trudeau

00:07:05.400 they were withholding Gerald Butts's expenses from us because they were all personal well they're not

00:07:10.520 personal if you are charging the taxpayer for them um it's my business if i'm footing the bill for it

00:07:17.000 um and likewise with this it is our business if we are footing the bill for this and the

00:07:22.120 prime minister's office is completely disrespecting again more laws of the land this time the information

00:07:28.600 laws but but Sheila forgive me i mean if they are breaking these laws um why do the overseers allow

00:07:37.480 them to get away with this you know it reminds me of if you ever watch professional wrestling it's like a

00:07:42.520 a wwe referee where he says now now listen stone cold that's the seventh time i've caught you with

00:07:48.680 a foreign object if you use it again i'm going to warn you an eighth time not to use it it's like

00:07:55.640 where is the penalty i mean how i guess what i'm saying Sheila is how do they get away with this

00:08:03.000 how do the liberals get away with anything i mean i suppose is the greater question they get away with

00:08:08.600 literally everything but yeah this really is sort of a toothless law um if you read through some of

00:08:13.240 the information commissioner's filings and her her findings um she'll say you know yes we we did agree

00:08:19.880 that such and such ministry or the prime minister's office was in violation of the information law we

00:08:26.280 asked them to send the um recipient the information they didn't so then the information commissioner writes

00:08:32.920 to the prime minister directly and then he ignores her emails and and her formal requests to release

00:08:39.240 the information to us and that's just where it ends that's that's just as far as it goes the the only

00:08:44.920 recourse we really have is that she can find in our favor which she has and then she writes to the prime

00:08:51.480 minister's office and you know a a prime minister who cared about following and respecting the rules of

00:08:56.920 the land would give us that information and he just ignores it in fact she she said that he has a

00:09:03.800 completely ignored didn't even respond to letters she sent him um what not even offering a reason why

00:09:11.880 they wouldn't release information to us you know and what makes this even more of an outrage Sheila is

00:09:17.400 that as you stated your commentary and going back four years ago on the campaign trail this was to be the

00:09:23.560 most open the most transparent government in the you know the history of canada and in fact i i've

00:09:30.520 never seen a more uh non-transparent secretive government when it comes to giving out this kind

00:09:37.960 of information and let's be honest i i really think that if you're being paid by the taxpayer um this

00:09:44.760 should be a matter of public record since the 90s when uh mike harris got in with majority government

00:09:49.960 in ontario as a premier we've had the so-called sunshine list and every year uh a list with all

00:09:57.160 the names and all the salaries to the penny sheila are printed out you know are are publicly available

00:10:05.080 and um if if you're somebody in the bureaucracy and go well you know what i want privacy well you

00:10:10.760 know what don't go into the public sector that's what i say why you know i basically i'm making the case

00:10:16.680 sheila that there is we have a right to see who's getting paid what well of course we do and also

00:10:24.680 we need to know how their salaries line up to what's happening in the private sector particularly here

00:10:31.640 in alberta i'll use the example here um we've got 150 000 people who've lost their jobs in oil and gas

00:10:38.280 they so zero income they have zero income and we have our teachers unions and our public sector health

00:10:44.200 union losing their minds because the ucp government is expecting them to consider taking a three percent

00:10:52.040 rollback when 150 000 people in the private sector have taken a 100 percent rollback you know so i think

00:10:59.720 it's important for the taxpayer to realize what uh the public sector is making um when they're being

00:11:07.800 insulated from the reality on the ground in the private sector oh 100 and sheila there there is no

00:11:14.040 bottomless pit of taxpayer dollars no every government's got a debt running deficits um just

00:11:20.440 the service fees on paying the interest on those debts and deficits are in the billions of dollars

00:11:26.520 but they're in la-la land they they just um their response to everything is raise taxes well and and

00:11:35.160 you know when you look at a province like alberta well you know what there's

00:11:38.520 there's uh the gooses have already been cooked and eaten there's no there there anymore so uh this

00:11:45.960 i think really rubs people the wrong way that a uh it's not being disclosed and b they can get away

00:11:52.440 with the non-disclosure and we should also say sheila that um thanks to your hard work um you're the one

00:11:59.960 blowing the whistle on it we we don't get these kind of stories like you'd expect from the media

00:12:05.080 party anymore do we and i i know it's costly and i know it's time consuming uh but you know you'd

00:12:11.720 think they would be on this but they're not you know it's funny because this access to information

00:12:19.880 request wasn't one of ours sometimes they get released to the information commissioner's website

00:12:27.160 or what or there's another website it's an open government website so after a certain amount of

00:12:32.440 time they become public so you know they go to the recipient the recipient gets them then after a

00:12:39.320 certain amount of time those those access to information requests become public and i go through

00:12:44.280 those two not just the ones that we get but also the ones that everybody gets and you'd be astounded

00:12:51.480 the amount of access to information requests that i find very important information in that somebody

00:12:58.680 else asked for but they never bothered to report and this is one of them so some other journalist or

00:13:04.840 you know private individual asked for this information and it came back to them redacted and they

00:13:11.480 never either pushed forward or bothered to report the fact that the government is redacting information

00:13:18.840 that they shouldn't and someone in the mainstream media would know that this information should be

00:13:23.080 public um and that you know it really tells the story of how much it's not just the questions that

00:13:31.240 the mainstream media aren't bothering to ask it's also the questions they're asking and they're not

00:13:38.200 reporting on which was what happened here well i hate to be a cynic but i guess these days given

00:13:43.800 what cbc gets from the federal government given uh the media buyout uh recipients i guess you don't

00:13:49.960 want to bite the hand that feeds i suppose sheila but we should make you know we got to wrap it here

00:13:55.320 we should um you know once again uh make a plea uh to our uh beloved viewers that um this sort of stuff

00:14:03.880 this kind of investigative journalism that you do is very costly it's very time consuming and if they

00:14:10.600 have it in their hearts i believe the uh the link to go to is rebelinvestigates.com is that right sheila

00:14:18.600 that is yes it's it's very time consuming i think you know sometimes i'll get access to information

00:14:23.720 requests back that are in the neighborhood of like eight to nine hundred pages sometimes they're 300 and

00:14:30.200 you really have to read through everything they're not really all that searchable um it's very time

00:14:35.160 consuming we do have a research helper who does help us but it does cost a lot of money to file for

00:14:40.520 these documents and then to appeal when they redact everything that they shouldn't and our viewers at

00:14:45.560 home can go to rebelinvestigates.com to help cover the cost to do the work that we're doing that nobody

00:14:50.680 else is indeed and it's good work and it's important work sheila thank you so much again for a great piece

00:14:56.520 thanks david have a great weekend okay you too now and that was sheila gun reed in alberta keep it here

00:15:03.560 folks more of rebel roundup to come right after this over the weekend greta tunberg published an

00:15:13.400 article in project syndicate it's an op-ed where she opined the issues facing the world from toxic pollution

00:15:20.680 to global warming her regular stick but at the end of this article she finally came clean here's what

00:15:27.560 she said the climate crisis is not just about the environment well bingo greta we already knew that

00:15:40.920 the environment now to keep going with what greta said keep in mind this is straight from the horse's

00:15:45.720 mouth herself it's about colonialism racism and the patriarchy well i wouldn't call this vindication

00:15:53.560 per se because greta tunberg is going to be in madrid and people are going to continue taking her

00:15:58.040 seriously now we got a whiff of this back when greta tunberg was in edmonton when i executed the first

00:16:04.440 unauthorized interview of greta tunberg in the world i asked her a very important question something that

00:16:11.800 if you ask any climate activist well it kind of unravels their whole argument i asked her if

00:16:16.760 climate change was a political issue or an issue of science would greta tunberg settle for a technical

00:16:22.680 solution to climate change if we could reduce all warming in the world if we could remove co2 from

00:16:28.520 the atmosphere or quit putting it up there with some sort of technical solution be it nuclear energy

00:16:33.880 the cleanest most reliable fuel on the planet or something else listen to how she responded to that

00:16:39.880 climate change is politics is it not science climate and so is science going to solve it would

00:16:45.480 you like a technical solution to climate change or would you like politicians i'd really appreciate it

00:16:49.560 if you stop talking to us right now oops see what happens when someone has the temerity to ask a hard

00:16:55.400 aka an impolite question to saint greta well the interview is promptly terminated but now the greta

00:17:03.240 tunberg traveling sideshow circus is getting surreal because apparently when it comes to the climate

00:17:10.040 crisis it's not just a matter of co2 emissions but there's racism and the patriarchy patriarchy yeah

00:17:20.680 those have roles to play as well wow and joining me now to hopefully connect the dots if that's even

00:17:27.880 possible folks is our roving reporter kian bexty welcome to rebel roundup kian hey david how are you

00:17:35.560 very good sir glad to have you with me again kian there is now an element of racism when it comes

00:17:43.240 to climate change now please please explain it's a bit of a long story and uh it's you got to connect

00:17:52.840 some mental dots that don't really connect very easily unless you're a rabid leftist like greta and

00:17:58.040 her handles so what basically happened over the weekend is greta tunberg and her similar here's

00:18:07.400 something that a lot of people don't understand greta tunberg is not just alone by herself doing the

00:18:12.120 things that she does she has you know a vast group of of activists and staff behind her but she also has

00:18:18.040 counterparts in different um in in different continents particularly one in africa that she

00:18:23.960 likes to talk with a lot and her and this group of group of gals and climate crusaders they penned a

00:18:32.920 op-ed in the uh they penned an op-ed over the weekend and in it they talked they you know they

00:18:39.880 lamented about global warming and toxic pollution and blah blah blah blah blah blah they mentioned china

00:18:44.920 once at all of course as per usual but at the end of the article what they did mention is that

00:18:51.640 the the the climate is not the the priority the pride it's not a sole priority in the talk about

00:18:59.400 climate change there's other priorities that come along with it uh that come along with dealing with

00:19:04.840 global warming and that that includes smashing the patriarchy ending colonialism and a few other things

00:19:12.680 it's it's it's mental gymnastics that could only be understood by by these leftists but kian here's

00:19:20.360 the thing um not to diminish those other mandates that they're concerned about but one would think that

00:19:28.760 if one is buying all into climate change remember we we've been told this is a climate crisis is a

00:19:34.920 climate emergency we maybe have um 12 years 18 months depending on who you believe uh with uh in

00:19:42.920 terms of how long we have as a species to survive isn't that enough of a project to devote your

00:19:51.160 energies to 24 7 100 percent before going on off the reservation to racism and the patriarchy and

00:20:00.280 colonialism you'd think david my my gut feeling about this is that they are using these sort of

00:20:11.240 peripheral issues to mobilize a larger leftist base to their cause there's lots of you know there's

00:20:18.200 there's fragments to the left just like there are to the right you know people in the conservative

00:20:23.400 movement could care a lot about immigration and not so much about taxes or vice versa a whole bunch of

00:20:28.680 things and leftists are the same way so by passing this broader net i think greta is purposefully

00:20:35.720 trying to bring in these different tribes of socialists communists leftists in general to rally

00:20:43.800 them behind her uh to to push her agenda and kian i think you're 100 right and we've spoken about this

00:20:51.400 before in the past my friend that i truly believe the green movement is just the old-fashioned

00:20:58.600 red movement with a fresh coat of paint it is trying to popularize marxism and socialism and

00:21:06.280 communism by wrapping it around some new whiz-bang save the planet environmental movement um and clearly

00:21:15.400 when you roll in these concepts like racism um and and the patriarchy and colonialism these are the

00:21:22.920 talking points that the marxists and socialists go on about so i think they're kind of proving our

00:21:29.560 theory aren't they yeah it's the same thing when greta came to north america she sort of adopted this

00:21:36.760 sort of aboriginal tone to everything she was doing um you know she had aboriginal beading uh in clothing

00:21:44.680 done up for her that she wore quite proudly even on the hood uh the the rear view mirror of her tesla as

00:21:51.880 i saw it in a parking lot in edmonton uh there was aboriginal artwork there too it's she's sort of picking

00:21:58.120 up as i said earlier tribes uh that's uh no pun intended now um she's picking up these tribes to put

00:22:05.960 them under her wing so that she can gather them wherever she goes collecting them so that she can rally

00:22:11.960 them and and have these larger climate rallies wherever she goes and you know i think kian that

00:22:17.480 the fatal flaw with these so-called climate rallies i think it's really low-hanging fruit to drop out of

00:22:24.840 school for a day gather at a public square with your friends uh chant and sing hymns and whatnot because

00:22:33.000 what i'm getting at is that if you really think that climate change is the end of us all what practical

00:22:39.320 solutions do you bring to the table now greta herself she can say well look i reduced my carbon

00:22:45.160 footprint by sailing across the atlantic yeah well we a lot of us don't have a half million euro yacht

00:22:52.280 that we can borrow and when we're driving the highways of alberta we don't have a uh a benefactor

00:22:58.840 that can lend us his six-figure tesla what i'm getting at uh kian is that for joe and jane public to

00:23:06.440 uh modify their behavior to save the planet air quotes they can't do what greta is doing it is

00:23:15.560 completely unfeasible and and greta didn't even have a low carbon trip across the waves and every

00:23:25.240 time someone says you know it was a low carbon trip she you know she sailed the ocean twice that's not

00:23:30.200 really what happened she of course yes she did sail the ocean pretty much low carbon on the way here

00:23:36.200 but that didn't include her bbc production crew that she brought out to alberta that didn't include

00:23:40.440 her security detail or her father that flew out from uh the uh european continent to north america and then

00:23:48.280 when she sailed back her uh her captain to pilot the the half a bill half a million was it half it

00:23:59.160 was a large very expensive yacht um half a million euros i believe right yeah okay that's what it was

00:24:05.560 yeah um nikki henderson flew from the united kingdom to the united states so that she could pilot it back

00:24:13.480 it would have made more sense for greta just to fly herself that would have been less carbon intensive

00:24:17.800 but uh the virtue signal this this isn't about bretta you know greta's trying to make it look like she

00:24:25.080 is this stunning example of climate sensitivity and and stewardship but at the end of the day she is

00:24:33.720 worse than the average person when it comes to a carbon footprint she's just the biggest hypocrite in

00:24:38.920 the world and you know and i think to be fair kian i mean i don't want it to look like we're bullying

00:24:45.080 a you know teenage girl that has some mental health issues um in on the other hand i mean i i i think that

00:24:54.520 she might be sincere about what she's trying to do my contempt kian is the puppet masters and the money

00:25:02.520 men behind greta and i think it is downright machiavellian of them that they are using this

00:25:10.600 girl as their uh puppet if you will as their spokesing so that because of her age her gender her mental

00:25:19.480 health issues that deflects any kind of potential criticism because you know kian if you dare say

00:25:26.760 anything against this uh little girl you're you're going to pay a price in the mainstream media aren't

00:25:32.920 you well that it's of course by design david these these these large backers behind her this foreign

00:25:40.600 funded campaign that canada has seen to shut off the canadian oil sands this is this is part and parcel

00:25:47.000 with their tactics they are a complex uh operational group that knows what they're doing and this

00:25:53.000 that her age the way that she's been put on a pedestal since simply protesting outside of the

00:25:58.680 swedish parliament uh moving from that to international popularity among young and old leftists

00:26:05.720 um it's no accident it's no accident at all well uh kim we're gonna have to wrap it there i i know

00:26:11.880 you and our dear friend sheila gun reid will be going to madrid uh you'll be covering the um uh whatever

00:26:19.640 they call that conference um so it's going to be interesting to see her there with sheila we're

00:26:29.160 going to try and get as many on location interviews with as many people as possible world leaders

00:26:34.120 whoever we can get close to we're going to be interviewing there and if anyone wants to support

00:26:38.280 what we're doing in madrid uh they can go to rebelun.com that's right folks if you can go to rebelun.com

00:26:45.400 throw in a few shekels and you can guarantee that sheila and kian uh they're not going to be part of

00:26:50.840 the greek course of the mainstream media uh saying everything is fine and dandy with what these un

00:26:56.360 people are delivering uh they're going to get to the heart of the matter as always kian a pleasure

00:27:02.040 talking to you as always my friend thanks david talk to you later you got it and that was kian bexty

00:27:08.680 somewhere in the province of alberta keep it here folks more of rebel roundup to come right after this

00:27:19.960 david menzies for the rebel news here in downtown toronto outside the courthouse at old city hall

00:27:27.640 well here is a case that really stinks both figuratively and literally i speak of the criminal

00:27:36.600 proceedings against toronto resident samuel opoku mr opoku stands accused of dousing five separate

00:27:45.800 people on five separate occasions with a bucket of liquefied human feces now today was to be uh mr

00:27:55.720 opoku's bail hearing uh there was a problem finding a judge so it's been postponed until december 18th

00:28:04.600 yet it's certainly a case that has captivated the imagination of this city i mean imagine that

00:28:11.400 folks you're just walking down the street minding your own business and some complete stranger comes

00:28:17.160 up to you and douses you with a bucket of human feces absolutely disgusting beyond words in any event

00:28:29.160 i'm very much hindered in reporting the details of this case because well you guessed it there is a

00:28:37.960 publication ban yes once upon a time pub bands were um they're a bit of a rarity and now it seems that

00:28:45.880 judges are handing them out like candy at halloween so that limits me in terms of providing you with the

00:28:53.160 nitty-gritty shitty details hmm so what is the grossest thing about this story folks the fact that

00:29:00.360 some disturbed individual went to the time and trouble to douse innocent people with liquefied human

00:29:06.840 waste or that once again a publication ban is in place preventing the media from publishing the details

00:29:15.320 associated with these disgusting crimes unbelievable in any event here's what you had to say about

00:29:23.320 samuel opolku who is facing five counts of assault with a weapon and five counts of mischief for

00:29:30.280 allegedly throwing feces at people he didn't even know lub fish in 15 writes rebel news just moved to america

00:29:39.320 where we have greater freedom of the press and then you don't have to follow those stupid publication

00:29:44.600 bans you know hey love vision you are preaching to the converted here when it comes to loving the first

00:29:50.600 amendment yet this is the fourth yeah the fourth court case in a row that i have covered that was under

00:29:58.760 the mandate of a publication ban but why well there is no reason to give because a judge doesn't have to

00:30:06.280 give a reason it seems more and more that the courts are simply bending over backwards to protect the

00:30:12.440 guilty all the while completely being cavalier with that quaint little concept known as the public has

00:30:20.120 the right to know tom fair writes hepatitis aids strep and a million other life-threatening diseases

00:30:30.120 you're right tom this was no harmless prank god forbid if any of the victims had

00:30:35.800 ingested even a tiny amount of that substance being tossed about imagine being infected with e coli

00:30:43.640 simply because some madman decided to douse you with liquefied human feces it's just beyond disgusting

00:30:51.720 jeff bryan writes oh come on judge it was just a practical joke the accused just wanted to get a lot

00:30:57.880 of hits on youtube i don't know jeff i we all know there are a few sickies out there that might indeed

00:31:04.760 find amusement in such a prank if you can call it that i just don't think there is a critical mass of

00:31:12.040 people that would flock to youtube to watch this regardless of the infamy just the thought of seeing

00:31:19.480 such a video makes me sick to my stomach earl greystoke writes all five victims were asian why isn't the

00:31:27.560 mainstream media reporting this as a racially motivated hate crime they would be shouting

00:31:33.000 racism loudly if the attacker was white and his victims were black or brown well earl if it does

00:31:39.880 if it turns out rather that mr opoku is indeed guilty that really puts the left in a bit of a bind

00:31:46.120 doesn't it after all given that the victims are all members of a visible minority group and that the

00:31:52.040 alleged perpetrator is a member of a visible minority group that really scotches that whole narrative

00:31:59.560 of white privilege and white supremacy and anything else that's bad that one can think of due to whiteness

00:32:06.680 so yeah once the verdict is delivered it will be most interesting to see how this case is spun

00:32:14.200 and joyce aldrich writes so it's possible mr opoku is not a canadian citizen

00:32:20.760 he's in a shelter so he may be one of our migrants and if he has a mental illness which is not his fault

00:32:27.880 which cracks in the system did he fall through like if he's a migrant or who vetted him or if he's a canadian

00:32:37.080 has he been assessed for mental illness and what follow-up or treatment plan does he have well you know

00:32:43.720 these are all great questions joyce and hopefully when the trial proceeds we'll finally get answers to those questions

00:32:49.800 in the meantime mr opoku's next bail hearing is scheduled for december 18th i have no idea how

00:32:56.360 that is going to play out but if i were the judge i wouldn't grant this individual freedom keep him

00:33:02.280 behind bars until he has his trial the risk to the public is simply too great well that wraps up another

00:33:10.440 edition of rebel roundup thanks so much for joining us see you next week and hey folks never forget without

00:33:16.440 without risk there can be no glory good night

00:33:27.080 you
