Willis testifies about her relationship with Wade Wade and the gifts he paid for her meals. She also talks about her book, "Find Me the Votes," and the interviews she conducted with the authors of that book. The hearing continues.
00:02:58.200Mr. Gillen, are you using this to confront her with prior statements?
00:03:04.940Yes, Your Honor, and statements that she made concerning her financial situation and laying the foundation for that, and that she gave these interviews to the authors.
00:03:14.920And so this would document that, and get this in the record, ask her questions about it.
00:03:20.540Well, we could mark it for impeachment purposes.
00:03:23.300I'm a little wary of entering an entire 300-page book because I don't know exactly what every single line, if it would pass hearsay or relevance or et cetera, et cetera.
00:03:31.100But I don't think it needs to be admitted as an actual evidence for the record for you to do what you need to do with it.
00:04:31.640But you also were telling, when, when they were, the title of the book, of course, is a hard-charging Georgia prosecutor, a rogue president, and the plot to steal American election.
00:05:11.180But if the court thinks it's not, then.
00:05:13.000No, no, it's, it could be relevant to your issue of the forensic misconduct that has been alleged and maybe some of the, the motives at play when it comes to forensic misconduct.
00:05:22.640But I'm not seeing, again, what we're here for today was the relationship and or any financial elements of it.
00:05:43.060I didn't ask whether you made any money.
00:05:44.500Do you have any other statements that she hadn't already been confronted with by Ms. Merchant?
00:05:47.160Well, other than, I want to, to, to focus on when you were telling them about your financial straits and you were living kind of month to month, that is what your financial status was back in 2018 after your election.
00:06:03.660Mr. Gellin, we, we covered that at length and I'm, you just, you're at the end of the line.
00:06:06.740I'm sorry about that, but we've got to find new ground.
00:06:08.320Well, you know, let me move on to, to, to my point here.
00:06:12.940So the point is that what you're telling us is that you were in financial straits, but really that your testimony today is you had a cash hoard of maybe up to $10,000 in cash where you laid your head at night so that you would dip out and there would be no record of it.
00:06:36.260That's not, that's not at all what I'm telling you.
00:06:38.600What I'm telling you is that throughout the course of my life, I have always kept cash in my house.
00:06:45.180That cash has ranged from times, you know, my father would probably be ashamed of this because he would say it should be more, but that time, that cash at times has ranged from $500 to maybe $9,000.
00:06:58.600And he would be like, that is not what I told you to do.
00:07:01.860Um, I've always had that amount of money.
00:07:04.860What I've told you is that when I travel, you do better negotiating.
00:07:09.500When you travel, if you have cash, you can, you go to get the cab.
00:07:13.880They say, Oh, we're going to charge you 300 for the day.
00:07:19.000And so it's my practice to take money.
00:07:21.340When I travel, we're not talking about a whole lot of money.
00:07:24.140We're going to the Bahamas, 1500 in cash is in my pocket or at the most 2,500 beliefs was actually probably the most money I've ever taken.
00:07:33.720And it was taken because it was a big deal.
00:17:45.240And believe me, people have been expressing their displeasure with Mr. Turner today.
00:17:50.700The problem is, you know, why can't we have this meaningful debate on the floor on whether you have to have a warrant to engage in a query of a United States person, a U.S. citizen?
00:20:47.880Congressman, you've got actually some legislation.
00:20:50.280You're quite worked up about the Turner situation.
00:20:52.660Tell us what you propose to do about it.
00:20:54.360Well, so I sent a letter to the speaker that I released publicly calling for an inquiry as to how his decision yesterday to release top secret information was intentional to try to impact a vote.
00:21:11.200And that is a breach, in my opinion, of his responsibility as chairman.
00:22:13.020You have Americans who have been investigated because of their political party, because of their religious affiliation, even had agents who were investigating their girlfriends.
00:22:54.780I mean, you know, several members of the Tennessee delegation, like myself, like Congressman Green, were members of the House Freedom Caucus.
00:23:02.080You know, we came to Washington to try to fix what's broken.
00:23:06.340And when you hear people who are being subjected, like some of the J6 folks that aren't getting due process, I've got Stuart Parks from my district who's being held in a federal prison with rapists and child molesters, and all he did was walk in.
00:23:25.440And so this is the kind of treatment that the American people are getting.
00:23:28.760And we now know that foreign governments are surveilling some members of Congress.
00:23:33.420And so this is – we're at an inflection point where freedom and liberty matter.
00:23:38.700And we're fighting to make sure that we, the people, have a right to hold our government accountable and to release top-secret information so that – and here's the other thing.
00:23:47.140This admission that he was working with the White House, the chairman of Intel, on this issue and the release of the information, he was admitting the Biden administration wants a never-ending war in Ukraine.
00:23:59.520The Biden administration wants an unreformed FISA.
00:24:02.300They want to continue to spy on Americans.
00:24:04.380They want to continue to spy on their enemies.
00:24:06.760And so this is a national security issue.
00:25:53.280So I just started just kind of a podcast.
00:25:55.180I'm not very good at it, but I have fun with it.
00:25:56.820And I've got a mailbag, and I just give people a shout-out from around the country, say, hey, you know, I had someone from Oregon of all places.
00:26:03.160I didn't know that there was any conservatives left in Oregon or on the left coast, but just saying thank you for what you're doing.
00:26:08.540And so, you know, it's refreshing to know that there's a glimmer of hope in Oregon, that there may be freedom still existing there.
00:26:14.960But in Tennessee, we're a bastion of freedom.
00:27:08.520Explain what it is and why that ties back directly to the types of things Congressman Ogles talking about to J6 prisoners.
00:27:14.300Yeah, well, as many in the war room posse have expressed their frustration at the lack of January 6 tapes being disclosed, we've been yelling at Speaker McCarthy.
00:27:29.040We're yelling now at Speaker Johnson, release the tapes.
00:27:33.520And then they gave us a little bit of a trickle and then nothing for months.
00:27:37.500And I think I finally have some answers, as you are sure, you know, I'm sure are friends with a lot of sitting U.S. senators and congressmen.
00:27:48.900And one of them, one of the elected representatives in D.C., told me that the source of the obstruction, told me today, the source of the obstruction on the J6 tapes is not Speaker Johnson.
00:28:02.620He has been fighting to get them released.
00:28:04.440The guy is not perfect, but he has been fighting to get them released.
00:28:07.780It's actually Mitch McConnell who has been stonewalling this.
00:28:12.360And Mitch McConnell's excuse is that the Senate sergeant at arms has not agreed to this.
00:28:20.600I'm still trying to get more information as to how Mitch can actually stop this or how a single sergeant at arms can stop this because there's a House sergeant at arms.
00:28:31.500There's a Senate sergeant at arms and they do have legal obligations with the Capitol and protecting the facility and how that interplays with Capitol police.
00:28:39.560So, as some of you may know, the House, sorry, the Senate sergeant at arms that was in charge during J6 is no longer with us on this earth.
00:28:55.620So, unfortunately, we cannot ask them any questions.
00:28:59.960But the current Senate sergeant at arms is being used by Mitch McConnell as the way to stonewall the release of these tapes.
00:29:07.620Real quickly, Rogan, how important is it to get the complete release of all these tapes?
00:29:14.660I mean, Johnson said what they're doing was taking the digital faces off people so they wouldn't be persecuted.
00:29:20.800It would sound like kind of a weird thing.
00:29:22.040How important is it for just to get every piece of tape and video that's up there?
00:29:27.240Well, from their perspective, you'd think they'd want everything released because this was the greatest insurrection and attack on the Capitol in U.S. history.
00:29:37.460Why wouldn't we want to find everybody that was involved?
00:29:40.540It's very strange that the J6 committee deleted evidence and now these J6 tapes are being withheld.
00:29:48.380And a, you know, common sense conclusion only leads to one thing.
00:29:52.580They don't want to expose what actually happened then.
00:29:56.420They don't want to expose the players.
00:29:58.540They don't want to expose the actors, the undercover agents, human sources, and who knows what else.
00:30:05.280There were foreign agents there that we now know from Ukraine as well.
00:30:13.120And I think maybe Speaker Johnson agreed to the blurring of the faces as a compromise to get the videos out because it seems like the deep state is trying to protect the deep state.
00:33:16.680And, of course, the judge was coming in, and I thought restricting reasonable questions from some of the people, the Trump people and others, to get there.
00:33:29.580This great, fiery new president of Argentina, Mr. Malay, Javier Malay, is going to be there, who famously campaigned for the presidency with a chainsaw, saying he was going to take a chainsaw to the bureaucracy and cut out all the woke policy positions in his government.
00:33:47.720And he said also famously, Steve, which I believe there's no plan B.
00:33:51.460We either succeed on these plans or these countries are going to go down.
00:33:55.940And then we have this really wonderful, calming voice who just rips the Democratic Party to shreds, Tulsi Gabbard, a former congresswoman, great American.
00:34:09.420Tell me, why is it important to get leaders like this?
00:34:14.400And we've had Bolsonaro before, obviously, you've got the president coming, you're doing foreign populist nationalists on Wednesday.
00:34:22.560Why is it important, you believe, to get some of these foreign leaders here?
00:34:27.080Because when we go meet with them overseas, we have Mr. Bukele, President Bukele, coming from El Salvador.
00:34:33.860We met with Malay at CPAC in Mexico City.
00:34:36.920When you meet with these guys, they just can't believe what's going on in America, Steve.
00:34:40.380They're like, is it as bad as it sounds?
00:34:42.060Like, why are you guys, like, so against religion and so against families?
00:34:46.260Like, how are these Democrats infiltrating everything in your society that matters?
00:34:51.940And I think one of the reasons they're coming here, number one, they, of course, want to be anywhere President Trump is.
00:34:56.520So let's just admit this is part of the Trump doctrine.
00:34:59.400There's a lot of people around this world who want to follow Trump's leadership style and his policies.
00:35:04.660But the second thing is they have a call to arms for the American people to wake up and realize that you can't screw around with America this much and not have the unintended consequences tumble down all over the globe.
00:35:18.240And if we're not going to be in a position to stand up to China, all these smaller countries are doomed.
00:35:23.540And I also think it's interesting, Steve.
00:35:25.800I don't think the Biden White House has reached out to any of these heads of state to meet with them.
00:35:29.460I mean, they're coming to CPAC to talk to people like you and me and the war room posse.
00:36:02.040It stemmed a stern, which is a little bit unique for a CPAC.
00:36:04.880So we're starting on Wednesday with this international summit where we have something like 15 countries coming together to talk about some of these great achievements we've had in countries like Australia,
00:36:15.020where they've tried to pass a BLM amendment to their constitution where people with darker skin get greater constitutional rights than everyone else.
00:36:22.760And that's coming, by the way, soon to America.
00:36:27.580President Trump on Saturday and other great speakers like yourself on Saturday to close the thing down.
00:36:33.920And then we're going to go right from CPAC into a South Carolina watch party where I think President Trump is going to stick a fork into her.
00:37:57.620I would imagine that the attorneys in the Fulton County DA's office were probably stunned when she went out there angrily and decided she was going to go light herself on fire in the courtroom today.
00:38:12.680That was the worst testimony I think I've ever seen from anyone in any court proceeding ever.
00:38:18.660Hold it, hold it, hold it, stop, hang on, hang on, stop, stop.
00:38:38.260Is that the absolute worst you've ever seen in your entire life?
00:38:41.600By far the worst, lawyer, non-lawyer, even mentally incompetent.
00:38:49.820I think mentally, I think a homeless man with a knife going into court for a competency hearing would be more sane than what Fannie Willis did today in court.
00:38:59.900She set up her own perjury trap and walked into it.
00:39:03.380She is the dumbest prosecutor I've ever seen in all my time as a lawyer.
00:39:10.420And this woman, this angry, dumb woman, is prosecuting a former and likely future president of the United States.
00:39:19.180Let that sink in, America, that this utter moron is prosecuting someone who was a president before and will be a president again.
00:39:28.720And I would say to Joe Biden and these national Democrats, what the hell are you thinking?
00:39:34.740Why are you picking these utter buffoons as your prosecutors to wage this lawfare and election interference, whether it's Alvin Bragg or Big Tish James or Big Fannie Willis or Jack Smith or any of these other goofballs who you're picking?
00:40:10.300Did you feel that the Kemp appointed judge, was he acting like her cut man?
00:40:23.400I mean, was he protecting her from just a barrage of these factual questions of which you go on these tirades and give conflicting testimony depending on who was asked the question?
00:40:36.680Was he trying to jump in and trying to protect her in your belief?
00:40:40.580I think he I don't even know if I can say this on your show.
00:40:43.180He's such a that he just allowed her to get away with murder on the stands.
00:40:49.260No other judge would ever let a witness come in and act the way that Fannie Willis did today.
00:40:56.560And she is the elected Fulton County District Attorney.
00:41:00.600She runs a large office of attorneys and paralegals and investigators and other staff.
00:42:16.700And she she drinks Grey Goose and she flies all over the world.
00:42:20.700But don't worry, she pays him back and she pays him back with cash.
00:42:25.140I mean, this is I was wondering if we are watching a bad comedy today on TV because it could not have gotten worse for Fannie Willis or Fannie or however the hell you pronounce her name.
00:42:37.840It couldn't have gotten worse for these anti-Trump forces.
00:42:41.440It could not have gotten worse for Fulton County.
00:42:44.440And what a complete and total embarrassment for Atlanta.
00:42:48.680Why would they elect this buffoon as their district attorney?
00:42:51.640Last thing, Mike, in New York today, the judge was adamant it's going to start on the 25th.
00:42:59.540What's your initial hot take assessment on what we saw in New York today?
00:43:03.640I mean, based upon how Fannie Willis performed today, I can't imagine that Alvin Bragg and Matthew Colangelo in this Manhattan case against Trump for the non-crime of a businessman settling a nuisance claim.
00:43:19.300And they've somehow transformed that into multiple felonies.
00:43:22.660The first indictment ever of a former president, even though the prior Manhattan DA passed over this case, the Manhattan U.S. attorney passed over this case, the Federal Election Commission passed over this case, Alvin Bragg himself passed over this case until Joe Biden sent Matthew Colangelo from the Biden Justice Department to go resuscitate the zombie case.
00:43:46.020This is going to be the Michael Avenatti and Julie Swetnick case in New York.
00:43:51.640And if Democrats think it's a good idea to start with these buffoons like Alvin Bragg and Fannie Willis and their lawfare and their election interference, this is going to be the first time the American people, real Americans with real jobs, tune in.
00:44:06.720And they are going to be appalled by this lawfare.
00:44:09.520This is going to only help President Trump.
00:44:11.680Real quickly, tomorrow also we're going to get the Soviet, the Moscow show trial in 1935 taking Trump's business.
00:44:24.600I mean, it's very obvious that Judge Ingeron, this complete goofball of a Democrat partisan judge, is going to rule against Trump and drop the hammer on him.
00:44:33.320Remember, this is the judge who ruled against Trump before the trial even began.
00:44:39.100He decreed that Trump somehow committed fraud when Trump paid back sophisticated Wall Street banks on time, as agreed, in full with interest.
00:44:50.120Judge Ingeron, before any trial started, before any witness, before any other evidence, this goofball judge said that Trump somehow committed fraud.
00:44:59.140I guarantee you this judge is going to impose, like, that $300 million fine that Big Tish, New York Attorney General Tish James, is requesting.
00:45:10.340This judge is going to try to say that the Trump organization can't operate anymore in New York.
00:45:17.200They know that he's going to beat Biden like a drum on November 5th, 2024, after they've impeached him twice.
00:45:23.940They've indicted him four times for non-crimes.
00:45:26.320They're trying to bankrupt him in New York with this non-fride.
00:45:29.580They're trying to destroy him with that goofball, Gene Carroll.
00:45:32.600They're trying to take him off the ballot with this bogus theory that the Supreme Court's going to overturn 8-1 or 9-0 with the Colorado Supreme Court.
00:45:59.320Georgia Governor Brian Kemp and Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr have no excuse after today to not open a criminal probe on Fulton County DA Fannie Willis and her unqualified, dumb, special prosecutor boyfriend, Nathan White.

00:48:00.760This audience has had such a massive, massive impact.
00:48:06.200Now, as the great Miles Guo said, you've got to have two guns.
00:48:09.040You've got Bill Blaster on the legislative side, and you've got the Article III Action Center over at Article III.
00:48:16.540Your impact on modern American political history is unparalleled.
00:48:21.040You have driven the whole reason we're having this hearing is you have driven this.
00:48:25.200But right now, and I say this to someone who loves the state of Georgia and the folks down there, one of our greatest states, the governor and the AG got stepped in.
00:48:34.360This was humiliating today for Georgia.
00:48:36.100You saw the prosecutor and the other guy that are the DA and the prosecutor that are going after Trump.
00:50:00.040I know that because, you know, you never know.
00:50:02.560I might be one of those 26 that now Matt Taibbi is saying they got information that Brennan went out to foreign governments to have him spy on the Trump people.
00:52:50.420We've got the – we put all the specials on the War Room page, everything mini-exclusive like the one we're running right now, the My Mattress Toppers, everybody.
00:52:59.960This is – we call it the pre-Real President's Day sale, okay?
