00:17:44.760But it would have given you time to go through it.
00:17:46.860He handled that, the whole entire administration handled that,
00:17:50.420about the worst you could possibly handle or mishandle.
00:17:54.060a sensitive situation like the epstein files with multiple myriad pitfalls and instead of
00:18:01.140trying to course correct he fired off that tweet telling everybody and then they you know that we
00:18:07.080don't want the support so we we can't overlook that and then the pivot and i think this is where
00:18:11.840israel is almost a victim of this the pivot from that moment to now leave me alone i have to deal
00:18:17.840with iran for israel was just a one two two piece the chant of maga and that was the next month it1.00
00:18:25.600was it was the very next month and so it made it gave certain female podcasters ammunition
00:18:34.000and it really did and not and by the way and i'm say candace and it's candace not that you know
00:18:40.380you know it's not like the name who can't be said or something but and it wasn't just her there were
00:18:45.320A lot of people, I think, in the audience and a lot of people out there, regular folks, good folks, who felt very upset about all of these things and said, wait a minute, this isn't what I voted for.
00:18:56.040This isn't what I came out for in 2024.
00:18:57.900And it's an example, I would say, that proves Graham's point about how the things people say and the acts that they take can really have an effect on the broader picture.
00:19:10.940And I want to put a pin in that because that's so important.
00:19:14.520We have to be very careful about all of this.
00:19:17.600The other point of contention that beyond that, now the files are out, but it's done
00:19:21.840in such a way that, you know, I don't think President Trump is going to get credit for
00:19:25.080releasing these, although he does deserve credit.
00:19:28.300And this is something that I will always defend and point out.
00:19:32.220His administration actually arrested Epstein in 2019.
00:19:36.740That was the original Trump administration.
00:19:39.040And yet everybody seems to overlook the fact that Donald Trump is the one who actually
00:19:43.300brought epstein to justice and depending on how far you believe on this some people even think
00:19:48.720it was his administration that killed him right and honestly if you follow which i'm not saying
00:19:55.220they did that i'm just saying that you know wouldn't it logically state that not too many
00:19:59.800jack not too many people even as private citizens living in that upper class socialite world ever
00:20:06.360said or did anything to challenge jeffrey epstein no and donald trump was literally the only one
00:20:12.540to say, you know what, you know, we're not doing this. You're out of Mar-a-Lago because
00:20:17.060I'm hearing these stories. So nobody else can say that. When you look at Donald Trump's
00:20:22.120association with Jeffrey Epstein, he comes out cleaner than anyone else that was involved with
00:20:26.980this guy. Come out cleaner than Reid Hoffman. He comes out cleaner than Bill Gates, Larry Summers.
00:20:32.900He comes out cleaner than, of course, Bill Clinton, all these people. And yes, that includes
00:20:38.080Ehud Barak, who was the Prime Minister of Israel, and who was the head of Israeli intelligence.0.95
00:20:43.480By the way, all of these things are just true. They're just true. And if we sit there and try
00:20:48.380to lie about them and say, oh, you can't talk about that, then guess what? That's what galvanizes
00:20:53.260people, and it's what gives credence to people who believe that perhaps Israel is controlling0.80
00:20:59.040all of American thought or all of American politics if you sit there and act like that.
00:21:03.660The other piece that I wanted to get into while I do have you guys
00:21:08.080is that one of these things now is as horrific as every Epstein's crimes were, they were in the
00:21:13.600past. There are victims. The victims, I believe, are getting reconstitution and reparations now
00:21:20.640from the estate of Jeffrey Epstein. By the way, I love that if there was no Epstein client list,
00:21:25.520then who's getting all these retribution checks, right? So clearly there's been some kind of
00:21:30.640victim list. So there is one case, though, that is currently pending. And it's something that
00:21:37.500really burned me up last week when i saw tyler robinson walk into that courtroom and he started
00:21:44.380grinning he started smirking he started sharing these little little smiles with his defense
00:21:51.040attorney that burned me up that really burned me up and this is a real trial that is ongoing
00:21:59.780there is another hearing that comes up in february i believe there's another one that
00:22:04.100comes up, the actual arraignment is still pending. It's going to be later on in the winter. The actual
00:22:09.400trial may not start for several months, but because there has been so much contention over
00:22:16.280this issue that I think people have gotten very far away from the actual facts and evidence of
00:22:22.760the case that show to my mind, based on everything that I've looked at, that Tyler Robinson was the
00:22:29.700one who pulled the trigger and murdered our friend charlie no i agree i i mean i i do agree
00:22:36.900in that now do i also have questions with all these discord channels and people that had
00:22:43.160right now absolutely but yeah i mean there is more if this was any other thing everybody would
00:22:51.300be like yeah you know how many times has there been a trans shooter that was involved in one
00:22:57.120of these cases you know a trans shooter at a school for nashville minneapolis the trans shooters
00:23:02.940that we've seen again and again and again and we say yep that was the person but for some reason
00:23:07.440this one everyone says no no it couldn't possibly be him well not everyone but certain people and
00:23:13.240again it goes to the discernment of things that i'm talking about here candace has just as many
00:23:20.940connections as we do like she can make the same phone calls we can now whether or not they'll0.95
00:23:25.480pick a phone these days or different she can have these conversations she could have had a lot of
00:23:31.860the conversations uh early on these things could have happened early on but her choosing along with
00:23:39.100other people choosing to take it immediately to social media to let people who actually don't
00:23:45.980have any idea what's going on uh now candace is even alluding to the fact of yeah there are things
00:23:52.520we don't know because they're not releasing everything that they have to us because and i
00:23:57.340would i would agree with that i would actually agree with that that in these cases and rich
00:24:01.400i'll bring you in a second that i would like to see more records videos whatever is out there
00:24:08.740released publicly in the charlie kirk murder case we know there's more records we know there's more
00:24:15.760videos out there people are so sick of being of the lack of transparency you'll want to get it
00:24:21.920out there and have it known let the public know and rich because you've done and a lot of people
00:24:27.960don't may not know this that not only do you do public polling for politics you have corporate
00:24:31.920clients and you all that you work for the from brand management these types of perspectives
00:24:36.020but also you do uh jury polling in various various locales various jurisdictions so on this issue
00:24:44.900this question of transparency. I get that the legal system says, we don't want to show any
00:24:53.000evidence until we get to that trial phase, until we get to the probable cause phase. However,
00:24:59.420we now live in a 24-7 information environment where the stuff you see on your phone,
00:25:08.180on these little pieces of glass every day is constant. It is a constant barrage of information.
00:25:13.840so my question is it almost seems like the presupposition has changed from you have to
00:25:22.120wait until trial to oh they're not showing us information they must be hiding something you
00:25:26.880get what i'm saying and do you hear that when you talk to prospective jurors i i yeah i do and i do
00:25:33.160think that charlie's i'll actually say it's kind of like we saw the csi effect in the 2000s now i
00:25:39.820would say we've got the social media effect yeah and it's a true crime effect yeah and much more
00:25:45.140amplified and i i think that we will have to find a better way to tackle our authorities we're gonna
00:25:50.040have to find a better way to attack tackle this because you do have podcasters who decide i think
00:25:54.440i'm gonna live stream an investigation and it would you know in real time and that's what people
00:26:00.200want they want answers fast uh the problem is with that jack i mean immediately my major concern
00:26:06.580was this is going to take it to jury all you all you need is one person who may even look and sit
00:26:14.020throughout the entire trial and hear the facts hear the evidence and decide that maybe i still
00:26:20.100believe somebody else not being held accountable here and they god forbid cast a not guilty verdict
00:26:27.980i mean this has happened this happened before in eye profile cases look i think charlie's case is
00:26:33.740a little bit different jack it has to be treated differently people on the state side of this are
00:26:39.620going to have to come to grips with the appetite for information prosecution yeah the prosecution
00:26:43.720side of the state and by the way i would remind people again you know i don't trust the fbi either
00:26:48.860but guess what the fbi is not prosecuting this case so i hear this repeatedly well why are you0.66
00:26:54.380taking the fbi's word for why do you believe the fbi why are you pushing that fed slop why are you
00:26:58.780why are you pushing the feds flop the fbi is not prosecuting this case this is a state case all
00:27:05.260right so again i i i don't want to say it's like almost a matter of national security interest
00:27:11.880but there is he this was the most high profile assassination in our lifetime political assassin
00:27:17.860you have to share more you have to try to do better i get it um so in the future though we
00:27:25.700do have to on our side of it that's when the state side from our side of it we do have to
00:27:30.460think about what grant said at the very beginning of this which is we do have a responsibility
00:27:35.340i mean we we can go back to oj there was a witness in the oj case they saw him pull away
00:27:42.660but by the time the prosecution ever got around to try to use that witness she had been all over
00:27:47.960the media and all over all these other people who had other theories of the case and her testimony
00:27:52.920was garbage it was incredible it was never admissible in court it was never brought up in
00:27:57.840court so we we also have to do better i get everybody's want and desire for information but0.70
00:28:03.480take that to the proper channels take that to the pro don't take it to your podcast audience
00:28:09.140and start talking because you really can take the jury and go out so far as to say
00:28:14.020you know there there are even medical records that potentially could be released
00:28:18.720A lot of people have questions about the ballistics in this.
