00:00:00.000 Hey everybody, today on the Charlie Kirk Show, Marjorie Taylor Green.

00:00:03.000 We have a long conversation about a lot of different things.

00:00:05.000 If you want to get involved with Turning Point USA, this conversation happened on the Heels of America Fest.

00:00:09.000 It's tpusa.com.

00:00:24.000 We go.

00:00:25.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.

00:00:27.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campuses.

00:00:29.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.

00:00:32.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.

00:00:36.000 I want to thank Charlie.

00:00:37.000 He's an incredible guy.

00:00:38.000 His spirit, his love of this country.

00:00:39.000 He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created.

00:00:45.000 Turning point USA. 0.65

00:00:46.000 We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.

00:00:55.000 That's why we are here.

00:00:57.000 Did you know that if you shop at Nike, they turn around and give your hard-earned dollars to pro-abortion groups like Planned Parenthood and the Population Council?

00:01:05.000 Did you know that Airbnb gave $500,000 to the Marxist Black Lives Matter organization?

00:01:11.000 Your first vote is at the ballot box, but that isn't enough to defend our traditional Judeo-Christian values.

00:01:17.000 Left-wing corporations are subverting our democracy by taking money from conservative customers and giving it to radical organizations that support abortion, gun control, and critical race theory.

00:02:30.000 Hey, everybody, welcome to this episode of the Charlie Kirk Show with us today.

00:02:33.000 Is it Congresswoman or Congressman?

00:02:35.000 I can never understand something.

00:02:36.000 Look, genders are the most important thing. 1.00

00:02:38.000 We have to protect Congresswoman. 0.92

00:02:40.000 I totally agree.

00:02:41.000 But like, there's this thing where you get introduced as congressmen sometimes.

00:02:44.000 Have you noticed this?

00:02:45.000 Yeah, that was like the whole weird feminist thing that sucked into the Republican movement. 1.00

00:02:50.000 I'm trying to take it back to the...

00:02:51.000 Yeah, I've never understood that.

00:02:53.000 So, Congresswoman, Marjorie Taylor Greene, we're supposed to hate you, and I don't.

00:02:57.000 I actually really like you.

00:02:58.000 So, why is that?

00:02:59.000 Why does the media tell us that you're like an existential threat to our democracy or whatever that is?

00:03:03.000 Well, apparently, that's what they want everyone to believe.

00:03:06.000 I'm really proud of my Wikipedia page.

00:03:08.000 I have to tell you, it is such a badge of honor.

00:03:10.000 I will never change it.

00:03:11.000 It says the most horrible, disgusting lies about me.

00:03:15.000 And so, I'm keeping it there just the way it is so that everyone can really understand what Wikipedia is all about.

00:03:20.000 So, I endorsed you early, if I remember correctly.

00:03:23.000 You did.

00:03:23.000 And thank you.

00:03:25.000 Of course, you got elected and you've decided to actually do what you said you were going to do.

00:03:29.000 And, you know, someone asked me a question once.

00:03:31.000 I was in Wisconsin.

00:03:32.000 And he says, Charlie, do you renounce your or denounce your endorsement of Marjorie Taylor Greene?

00:03:39.000 I said, why would I do that?

00:03:40.000 Like, oh, because of all these things that she said.

00:03:42.000 I said, you know, this idea that you have to like, we have to pander to what they tell us what to do is because the media tells us to be angry about something is just extraordinary.

00:03:53.000 So you've been in Congress not even a year.

00:03:54.000 Is that right?

00:03:55.000 Not even a year.

00:03:56.000 Hasn't even been a year.

00:03:57.000 What has surprised you the most?

00:03:59.000 Everything.

00:04:01.000 Be more specific.

00:04:02.000 Okay.

00:04:03.000 So here's the way I see Congress.

00:04:05.000 So, you know, I come from the private sector, never, never involved in government.

00:04:09.000 In Georgia.

00:04:10.000 In Georgia.

00:04:10.000 Yep.

00:04:11.000 Never went to a GOP meeting because I just didn't even know what they were.

00:04:15.000 I was busy working, raising my family, just living the most incredible life.

00:04:20.000 God thank you.

00:04:22.000 Okay, so I got mad and decided to run for Congress.

00:04:25.000 Why'd you get mad?

00:04:26.000 Well, because I knew what Democrats were doing.

00:04:28.000 That was clear to see.

00:04:30.000 But it was Republicans that got me really angry because they weren't doing their job.

00:04:34.000 And so when you're a business owner, you're used to managing.

00:04:37.000 You're used to holding people accountable, you know, and we do things like make a profit instead of a loss.

00:04:42.000 And I was looking at the Republican Party and I'm like, you know, they really failed with Paul Ryan as the speaker.

00:04:48.000 They did not pursue the agenda that we all voted for under President Trump in 2016.

00:04:54.000 I'm going to run for Congress because I feel like we need to put, you know, regular people in there.

00:04:59.000 Get there.

00:05:00.000 And here's what I find out.

00:05:01.000 This is what most people don't realize. 0.99

00:05:03.000 They're the most incompetent, poorly, just horrible work ethic. 1.00

00:05:09.000 They're lazy. 1.00

00:05:10.000 They don't know how to achieve anything. 0.94

00:05:12.000 They truly don't know how to solve problems because they're government people.

00:05:16.000 I think that's what most people need to understand.

00:05:18.000 You see, in order to succeed in business, you have to be able to solve problems.

00:05:22.000 You have to be able to please your customer.

00:05:24.000 It's very difficult.

00:05:26.000 So that's actual work.

00:05:27.000 But in the government, everything is assumed that the revenue comes in automatically because of the IRS and it's a law.

00:05:33.000 You don't have to please your customer because your customer can't fire you.

00:05:38.000 I mean, the American people can't fire the federal government, or yet they haven't tried.

00:05:42.000 They claim they tried on January 6th, but they really didn't.

00:05:44.000 But anyways, what I found is everyone's incompetent.

00:05:47.000 No one can produce anything that actually works.

00:05:50.000 And it's a system that's set up for failure.

00:05:52.000 So I look at the Capitol and all I see is a glass castle.

00:05:55.000 It's completely empty.

00:05:57.000 And that's why it's failing America.

00:05:59.000 So just kind of as a freshman, I mean, your expectations were probably low going in, right?

00:06:04.000 I mean, but, and they've just, it's worse than you even thought it was.

00:06:09.000 It's terrible.

00:06:10.000 So there's committees.

00:06:11.000 Committees are set up.

00:06:12.000 You're not any committees, though, right?

00:06:13.000 No, if I'm not mistaken.

00:06:14.000 You got censured or whatever.

00:06:15.000 So you sort of kicked off committees.

00:06:17.000 So you're not on any committees.

00:06:18.000 Right.

00:06:19.000 Like, what was the last time that's happened?

00:06:20.000 I don't know.

00:06:21.000 I think there's been a few people before me, but not stripped of all committees.

00:06:26.000 Here's the thing about committees, though. 0.94

00:06:27.000 They're completely useless.

00:06:29.000 So actually, the way the committees are set up, it's caused all the failure.

00:06:33.000 So the committees are the place where they supposedly produce bills and create laws and create everything that we're living in.

00:06:39.000 But look at what's come out of committees.

00:06:41.000 We're nearly $30 trillion in debt.

00:06:43.000 Our border is wide open.

00:06:44.000 We've had forever and ever and ever wars.

00:06:46.000 And then Biden failed in Afghanistan.

00:06:48.000 We're still murdering babies, as many babies as possible, and they don't want to ever stop it because it's an industry.

00:06:54.000 They want to take away our guns, and it goes on and on and on and on and on.

00:06:57.000 They want to give amnesty to illegals.

00:07:00.000 This is what comes out of committees.

00:07:01.000 So committees are completely broken and they're a lie.

00:07:04.000 It's the place that where members of Congress feel important.

00:07:07.000 It's a place where they get a title and they say, this is my job.

00:07:10.000 This is what I do.

00:07:11.000 It's the place where they get to have a few minutes, some kind of speech or some kind of attack and some sort of hearing on a committee that comes off a C-SPAN and then it makes it on the news.

00:07:21.000 Committees are failing America.

00:07:23.000 That is what I learned.

00:07:24.000 I learned it and I saw it and I'm thrilled that I'm not a part of it because thank God I don't have to claim any of the stuff they've produced.

00:07:31.000 Yeah, I mean, the only good use of committees will be if Republicans get in the majority and we could subpoena some of this stuff and hopefully get to the bottom of it.

00:07:38.000 Right.

00:07:39.000 But on committees, Republicans and Democrats serve together.

00:07:42.000 So they're only useful if Republicans do what they say they're going to do.

00:07:46.000 No, that's exactly right.

00:07:47.000 And Democrats are willing to use committees to try to destroy people's lives.

00:07:51.000 Yes.

00:07:52.000 Republicans, we'll see.

00:07:54.000 We don't know.

00:07:55.000 And we haven't seen anything good yet when they've had control.

00:07:58.000 Yeah, I want to see something different.

00:08:00.000 So, so far, I've been disappointed.

00:08:02.000 Yeah, so there's a lot of different things going on.

00:08:05.000 You visited the jail with the January 6th prisoners.

00:08:09.000 Yes.

00:08:09.000 Said this very clearly to our audience.

00:08:11.000 I didn't like what happened on January 6th.

00:08:12.000 We didn't announce it when it happened.

00:08:13.000 I just don't like looting wouldn't be the right word.

00:08:17.000 I don't like destruction of property, especially of our nation's capital.

00:08:21.000 But we need to say that as a prerequisite because the media, they love to cut everything up.

00:08:21.000 I agree.

00:08:27.000 Well, I truly feel that way.

00:08:28.000 I was in the Capitol when it happened.

00:08:30.000 It was like your third day.

00:08:32.000 Yeah.

00:08:32.000 Literally, because you swore on January 3rd.

00:08:35.000 That's right.

00:08:35.000 No, I really thought it was terrifying.

00:08:37.000 I didn't understand it.

00:08:38.000 I didn't know who was doing it.

00:08:40.000 They spent all day long, everybody was trying to tell me that, no, those people have MAGA hats on.

00:08:44.000 They're Trump supporters.

00:08:45.000 I was like, no, that's not our people.

00:08:47.000 We don't do that.

00:08:48.000 That's Antifa.

00:08:49.000 I just, I honestly didn't believe it.

00:08:51.000 It was very upsetting to me.

00:08:53.000 And it stopped our objection that we had worked hard on.

00:08:57.000 A legal path.

00:08:59.000 And that's what I was interested in.

00:09:01.000 So, yeah, it was a really bad day, but we've seen a lot of things come out.

00:09:07.000 The real estate market is extremely hot right now.

00:09:09.000 People are taking advantage of low interest rates and economic uncertainty by investing in real assets.

00:09:14.000 Whether you are a first-time buyer or just looking to make a change, the key is to get the property you want is being pre-qualified and having cash in hand.

00:09:21.000 That's why you guys, all of us, myself included, I had to stop doing this.

00:09:25.000 I had to stop using the big banks.

00:09:26.000 I used a big bank for a loan previously.

00:09:28.000 It was a disaster.

00:09:29.000 It took forever.

00:09:30.000 Not to mention, I go look at their score on secondvote.com.

00:09:34.000 Like, wow, my loan helped fund abortions.

00:09:36.000 BLM Incorporated, burning down of Wendy's, the destruction of our society. 1.00

00:09:41.000 I'm done with it.

00:09:42.000 Then I met Andrew and Todd, Andrew Dell Ray and Todd of Aiken, who become great friends of mine.

00:09:46.000 AndrewandTodd.com.

00:09:48.000 They are with Sierra Pacific Mortgage.

00:09:50.000 My producer, Andrew, is working with them right now, and he tells me they are part counselors, part financial planners, and they're really helping them.

00:09:56.000 And I'm about to use them for something.

00:09:57.000 I've been so impressed by them.

00:09:58.000 But they are bankers, not brokers.

00:10:01.000 That means that they can help you start to finish.

00:10:03.000 But quite honestly, let's divest and take all of our money out of these woke banks.

00:10:07.000 So maybe you're buying a new home.

00:10:08.000 Maybe you're refinancing.

00:10:21.000 Even if you have a friend who's buying a home, I'm sure every single person knows someone that's buying a home.

00:10:25.000 Just put your arm around them and say, hey, go to andrewandodd.com.

00:10:28.000 Charlie Kirk speaks favorably of them.

00:10:30.000 Here's what I can guarantee you with AndrewandTodd.com.

00:10:32.000 Zero of the proceeds will go to fund abortion.

00:10:36.000 Zero will go to fund BLM.

00:10:38.000 Zero will go to fund the woke industrial complex instead. 0.87

00:10:40.000 Andrew and Todd, they support shows like ours.

00:10:58.000 Support the good guys and stop supporting companies and banks that hate you.

00:11:03.000 The banks have waged war on our values.

00:11:05.000 Time to say Sayonara via Condios.

00:11:08.000 I'll Vita Sane.

00:11:09.000 I'll be going to andrewandTodd.com.

00:11:15.000 And then you've been one of the few people that have actually tried to find out what's happened to some of these people, right?

00:11:21.000 Yeah.

00:11:22.000 So walk us through that.

00:11:23.000 Who's in this DC jail?

00:11:24.000 What are the conditions?

00:11:25.000 What are they charged with?

00:11:27.000 Just walk us through that in great detail because it's a real kind of, it's not a covered story.

00:11:33.000 Nowhere close to what it should be.

00:11:35.000 No, not anywhere, and it deserves so much.

00:11:38.000 So they've committed crimes.

00:11:41.000 Some of them just have misdemeanors from just walking around on Capitol grounds.

00:11:45.000 Okay, so some are as low as misdemeanors.

00:11:47.000 Yes.

00:11:47.000 So explain to me, though, why some people are being released on bond and these aren't.

00:11:52.000 I mean, is it?

00:11:54.000 I don't understand.

00:11:55.000 Like, because some right.

00:11:57.000 So, Charlie, you're asking the common sense questions and the questions we should be able to ask in America, but we have to talk about this understanding that we've been too nice calling Democrats socialist.

00:12:08.000 We've been too nice calling them authoritarians.

00:12:10.000 This is communism, real communism.

00:12:13.000 These are people that are in control and they're abusing their power.

00:12:16.000 And it's not just the ones in Congress and in the White House.

00:12:18.000 It's also in the FBI, the Department of Justice, and it's all across.

00:12:22.000 They are persecuting their political enemies.

00:12:25.000 And it is purposeful to tell the rest of the American people, this is what's going to happen to you.

00:12:30.000 So, talk about what's actually happening in the jail.

00:12:32.000 So, some people committed crimes, they did, they're charged.

00:12:35.000 Well, the FBI, we saw them raid their homes.

00:12:38.000 They went and found people, arrested them.

00:12:40.000 Did they bring them back to DC?

00:12:41.000 Yes, there's approximately 40 to 50 in the D.C. jail right now.

00:12:46.000 So, these people didn't get to serve.

00:12:48.000 They didn't hear out their cases.

00:12:50.000 They haven't been to court.

00:12:51.000 They're pre-trial, pre-trial, January 6th defendants.

00:12:54.000 Not only are they in D.C., they're also across the country in other jails.

00:12:59.000 Yesterday, I had to call in.

00:13:01.000 There's a man in a jail there in Georgia that was having medical issues, and they were refusing to give him medical treatment.

00:13:08.000 And so, his fiancé was desperately trying to get someone to check on him and get help because no one's allowed to go visit him.

00:13:14.000 He's pre-trial.

00:13:15.000 But in the D.C. jail, here was the issue.

00:13:20.000 While everything was ramping up and everyone's being framed as insurrectionists, and then Nancy Pelosi is building her case for the January 6th committee, as the months went by, January, February, March, and April, we were hearing things about these people that had been arrested.

00:13:32.000 We were hearing that they've been beaten, and we were hearing they're being held in solitary confinement.

00:13:37.000 And I was like, is this really true?

00:13:40.000 How do we find out if this is true?

00:13:42.000 So, along with a couple of my colleagues, and I only say a couple because most of my conference, my Republican conference, refuses to have anything to do with this.

00:13:49.000 But it was me, Paul Gosar, Louie Gomert, and Matt Gates.

00:13:53.000 We went to the DC jail, and as members of Congress, we tour facilities all the time, ICE detention centers, jails in other places, all kinds of federal, federally funded buildings and programs.

00:14:05.000 We tour them.

00:14:05.000 That's what we do because we fund them.

00:14:08.000 And the District of Columbia, people need to remember, Congress has oversight over the District of Columbia because it's not a state.

00:14:15.000 They want to be a state, but they're not a state at this time.

00:14:18.000 Hopefully, they never will be.

00:14:20.000 But so we go to the jail and we're like, hi, we're members of Congress.

00:14:23.000 Here's our ID.

00:14:24.000 We would like a tour of the jail.

00:14:26.000 We were met instantly with a woman named Deputy Warden Kathleen Landerkin.

00:14:31.000 She's the person in charge at the jail, and she told us that we were trespassing.

00:14:37.000 Trespassers.

00:14:38.000 You're not allowed to, we said, no, you don't understand.

00:14:40.000 We're members of Congress.

00:14:41.000 We're here for oversight and to tour the jail.

00:14:43.000 We want to see the whole facility.

00:14:45.000 Denied us entrance.

00:14:46.000 Kept going back, denied us entrance.

00:14:49.000 So we couldn't go in.

00:14:50.000 So finally, we've written letters.

00:14:53.000 We had been calling attention to it, doing everything we could.

00:14:56.000 Finally, I got a phone call, and it's just been barely a month now.

00:15:01.000 And they said, it was like 6.15.

00:15:03.000 I was on the House floor.

00:15:05.000 You can come and tour the jail at 6.30, 15 minutes notice.

00:15:10.000 And they were just so happened to let the city council in Washington, D.C., was getting a tour.

00:15:15.000 And so they probably figured, hey, we'll throw her in and get this done. 1.00

00:15:19.000 So we rushed down there as fast as we could.

00:15:22.000 Louie Gomer from Texas went with me.

00:15:24.000 So he and I and a couple of members from our staff.

00:15:27.000 We go in and tour the jail and we saw the entire prison, saw everywhere all the different programs.

00:15:34.000 We saw education programs, continuing education, job training.

00:15:38.000 We saw moot court where they were practicing their trials with a third-year law student from Georgetown.

00:15:43.000 We saw all, you know, places where they get their haircut, chapel, Islam temple in there.

00:15:51.000 It was really interesting.

00:15:52.000 Most of the signs up on the wall was telling felons they could vote.

00:15:56.000 Now you can vote in the District of Columbia.

00:15:59.000 Felons can vote.

00:16:00.000 Those signs were everywhere.

00:16:02.000 Saw some reading material, but the most common reading material in the jail was the Nation of Islam newspaper.

00:16:09.000 That was the most common.

00:16:11.000 It was everywhere.

00:16:12.000 The books that they had were very CRT focused about race and about, especially about the prison system.

00:16:19.000 Incarceration.

00:16:20.000 Yes, they're all there because they're black, all of that stuff. 0.97

00:16:23.000 So that was a lot of the type of information.

00:16:25.000 And then our tour was coming to a close.

00:16:28.000 And we said, no, we're here to see where the January 6th defendants are too.

00:16:31.000 Thank you for showing us the whole jail.

00:16:33.000 We'd like to see there.

00:16:34.000 And they said, no, ma'am, that's not part of your tour.

00:16:37.000 And so I will save you a lot of time, but we had quite a heated conversation because I wasn't leaving.

00:16:44.000 And I told them very point blank, I said, listen to me right now.

00:16:48.000 If you do not take us in there and show us where these January 6th defendants are, I am going to go on every single news station I can find.

00:16:56.000 I said, I'll go on CNN.

00:16:57.000 I don't care.

00:16:58.000 I'll go on every single one.

00:16:59.000 I will be in front of the press every single day.

00:17:01.000 And I'll tell them everything I saw here and that you are hiding something with these people.

00:17:07.000 So that was the chief of staff or the mayor's office that I told that to.

00:17:11.000 And I told Deputy Warden Kathleen Landerkin that.

00:17:15.000 And so they made a phone call.

00:17:17.000 He stepped out of the way.

00:17:17.000 Well, let me tell you what happened.

00:17:19.000 He steps back and he's like, I'll make a phone call.

00:17:21.000 And he walks through this doorway.

00:17:23.000 And as he goes through the doorway, somebody presses a button and a prison door with actual bars rolls shut.

00:17:31.000 And he's over there making the phone call.

00:17:33.000 And we're all standing on this side.

00:17:36.000 And we go, I mean, we're all looking at each other.

00:17:38.000 We're like, that wasn't accidental.

00:17:40.000 You know, and we said it out loud, like, oh, you didn't do that on purpose.

00:17:42.000 No, I'm sure, like, what, you know, of course, what's over there?

00:17:46.000 Is that where they are?

00:17:48.000 So we're really angry.

00:17:49.000 And he comes back in view on the other side of the door.

00:17:53.000 And he said, the director gave him permission.

00:17:56.000 Then magically, oh, the prison door rolls back open.

00:17:59.000 And then guess where we go to see the January 6th defendants?

00:18:02.000 We go that way, where they were locking us out.

00:18:06.000 You couldn't even make this up.

00:18:07.000 We had no idea that's where those people were being held.

00:18:10.000 They were so worried about what's back there that they literally shut a prison door to keep us from going back there.

00:18:17.000 And we didn't know where they were going.

00:18:18.000 What did you see?

00:18:19.000 Well, they took us back.

00:18:21.000 And when we went inside, we went in through these double doors and walked into sort of a big center room that was like a common area with picnic tables, some picnic tables.

00:18:33.000 And there was nothing on the walls.

00:18:35.000 It was different than other areas we'd seen.

00:18:36.000 There were no televisions, no signs telling them that felons could vote, but they're pre-trial, anyways.

00:18:41.000 They haven't even been to court.

00:18:43.000 These people are being detained pre-trial.

00:18:48.000 So we go in there and I'll never forget it in my entire life, Charlie.

00:18:54.000 These men just came.

00:18:55.000 They were, some of them were there and they came out from like where their cells were and stuff.

00:19:00.000 And they just started clapping and cheering and were overwhelmed with so much emotion.

00:19:08.000 And they were crying and just even their body language was like just bent over and they were overwhelmed at the sight of us.

00:19:15.000 And they instantly knew who I was.

00:19:17.000 They knew who Louis Gohmert was.

00:19:19.000 And they were thanking us, hugging our staff, hugging all, thanking us, shaking our hands because no one's come for them.

00:19:26.000 No one's come to see them.

00:19:28.000 And in their eyes, you could see that they felt forgotten and that they really are being treated like political prisoners of war.

00:19:36.000 And there's like 40 or 50 of them.

00:19:38.000 Yes, and they look horrible.

00:19:41.000 They've been held in there, you know, some of them since January.

00:19:44.000 They haven't been outside, so they just don't look healthy.

00:19:47.000 The food there is horrible.

00:19:50.000 They're not allowed to shave or get haircuts.

00:19:52.000 So their beards are long and scraggly.

00:19:54.000 Their hair looks terrible.

00:19:57.000 They just are not kept.

00:19:59.000 They're not healthy because they're being detained in a place where they're not being.

00:20:03.000 And they're not even allowed to post bail some of these people.

00:20:06.000 No, they're not allowed to post bail.

00:20:07.000 And this is what's really interesting.

00:20:09.000 So definitely, definitely.

00:20:11.000 Some of them, they've done, they, yes, I'm not, I'm not, it's not about their cases and what they've done.

00:20:17.000 They've been charged.

00:20:19.000 They're going to go to court.

00:20:20.000 That's a process that needs to work out.

00:20:23.000 Some of them attacked police officers.

00:20:25.000 Some of them broke in the Capitol.

00:20:26.000 Some of them damaged things.

00:20:28.000 So it took riot shield, I mean, the riot shields away.

00:20:31.000 Some of them, you know, they definitely, I'm not saying they didn't do things.

00:20:35.000 They did do things not any different than Antifa or BLM writers.

00:20:40.000 But some of them in there didn't do any of that stuff.

00:20:43.000 They just walked around in the Capitol.

00:20:44.000 But yeah, and so why do they choose them?

00:20:47.000 I don't know.

00:20:48.000 Well, I think it's because they have public defenders.

00:20:51.000 They can't afford attorneys that will do the good job of representing them.

00:20:56.000 Or just hat, you know, or maybe they're friends.

00:20:58.000 Maybe they're friends or have a relationship with someone that did do something bad.

00:21:02.000 So they claim that they're flight risk.

00:21:04.000 They claim that they're a danger to society.

00:21:07.000 But a lot of them can't afford attorneys. 1.00

00:21:09.000 And so they have these public defenders in Washington, D.C. that hate them, that call them white supremacists, that tell them they have to denounce Trump.

00:21:18.000 Tell them they have to denounce their views.

00:21:21.000 They're trying to re-educate them.

00:21:22.000 They want them to watch videos.

00:21:24.000 They want them to read books.

00:21:26.000 And they want them to completely change and denounce everything they're doing.

00:21:30.000 And they want them to say that President Trump told them to do it.

00:21:35.000 That is ultimately what they want.

00:21:37.000 And so they're being held there under mental abuse and physical abuse to break them down in order to get them to come out and say that.

00:21:46.000 Because how else can they take President Trump down?

00:21:49.000 They can take him down if they have all these people that come out and say that he told them to do it.

00:21:54.000 I don't know if that'll get it done.

00:21:56.000 Thankfully, Dershowitz, who's on our show, and we disagree with him on plenty, but he was really instrumental in a similar court case like 30 years ago.

00:22:05.000 Oh, wow.

00:22:05.000 Where he came on our show and talked about this.

00:22:08.000 It was in Chicago, wasn't it, Andrew?

00:22:09.000 It was a Chicago something, where it was a similar riot where they blamed the speaker beforehand and went all the way up to the Supreme Court.

00:22:17.000 Really?

00:22:18.000 And it said that you can't, incitement standard is super, super hard.

00:22:21.000 Like the incitement statute has to be explicit, immediate, and direct.

00:22:27.000 And it wasn't for Trump, obviously.

00:22:29.000 Right.

00:22:29.000 And so thankfully, Dershowitz has been really good on the civil liberty type stuff.

00:22:34.000 So that's an interesting thing.

00:22:35.000 That's a good reason for people to watch your show.

00:22:37.000 Yeah, no, I mean, because I haven't heard that anywhere else.

00:22:39.000 We had Dershowitz on the show like right like early February last year and we talked about it.

00:22:44.000 Yeah, I remember.

00:22:44.000 Yeah, it was Chicago.

00:22:45.000 That's fantastic.

00:22:46.000 And so they're going to try, obviously, but the law went all the way to the US Supreme Court and they said that the incitement standard is protected speech, right?

00:22:46.000 Yeah.

00:22:56.000 Well, I think they're going to continue to push the line because that's in D.C., they do their own laws there.

00:23:01.000 It's like it's all a stacked jury.

00:23:03.000 It's totally different.

00:23:04.000 Than if you were in Tennessee or Georgia or Texas or whatever.

00:23:04.000 Totally different.

00:23:07.000 Yeah, so they're held there.

00:23:09.000 Here's something that's going on.

00:23:11.000 They're denied communion.

00:23:12.000 They're denied chapel services.

00:23:14.000 Well, that's unconstitutional.

00:23:16.000 Absolutely.

00:23:17.000 Absolutely.

00:23:18.000 Someone needs to sue the city of New York.

00:23:19.000 I'm saying New York City of D.C.

00:23:21.000 Yes, they're denied medical services.

00:23:23.000 There's the case.

00:23:23.000 That's also illegal.

00:23:24.000 Yes, completely.

00:23:26.000 So their treatment is terrible, and that's what's happening.

00:23:30.000 I was just told this morning that they've gone back on lockdown and they're in solitary confinement now.

00:23:36.000 And the abuse and everything is coming back.

00:23:40.000 And they think they feel like it's been because of the D.C. jail report that I put out.

00:23:45.000 It's on my website, congressional website, green.house.gov.

00:23:50.000 Green has an E on the end.

00:23:51.000 Congressman Louis Gohmert and I worked on it together and our staff, they did an amazing job working on it.

00:23:56.000 And so that's on my website.

00:23:57.000 If anyone wants to read it, I hope everyone reads it.

00:24:00.000 We've distributed as far as we can to understand what's happening.

00:24:04.000 But they really feel like it's getting worse.

00:24:07.000 And now that Darren Beattie's report came out on Revolver.

00:24:10.000 It's an unbelievable report.

00:24:12.000 We got to get Darren on the show, by the way.

00:24:14.000 Yes.

00:24:14.000 And I mean, the most important question is, okay, you want to get to the bottom of January 6th?

00:24:20.000 How about Ray Epps?

00:24:21.000 Where's Ray Epps?

00:24:23.000 So the January 6th committee in Congress is made up of you've got Jamie Raskins, you've got Adam Schiff, which is he's running the same playbook as Kinzinger Thompson.

00:24:33.000 Kinzinger, Yep, Thompson, Cheney.

00:24:35.000 It's not a true committee because the minority party, the Republicans, did not get to pick who they wanted to be on there.

00:24:42.000 We were supposed to have five Republicans on there. 0.99

00:24:44.000 We didn't.

00:24:45.000 So this committee is operating under its own control and doing whatever they want.

00:24:51.000 They don't care about Ray Epps.

00:24:52.000 He hasn't been subpoenaed, but yet they've submitted.

00:24:54.000 Nor arrested, which is really strange.

00:24:56.000 Very strange, especially when the FBI had him originally as number 16 on their own Twitter page.

00:25:02.000 You know why?

00:25:03.000 Why?

00:25:03.000 Right-hand, left-hand.

00:25:05.000 Meaning that somebody didn't know who Ray Epps was.

00:25:09.000 Sure.

00:25:09.000 It was, oops.

00:25:10.000 Someone, because it was such a big operation, someone said, oh, of course he must be a bad guy.

00:25:15.000 Yeah.

00:25:15.000 And then someone said, no, no, no.

00:25:17.000 That's my working theory.

00:25:18.000 Oh, I totally believe you because right-hand, left-hand, big operation.

00:25:21.000 Well, if you're working undercover, everybody can't know who you are.

00:25:26.000 Look, stocks are at all-time high.

00:25:28.000 People are saying things are going well, but you know they aren't.

00:25:31.000 Interest rates are at zero, and the government just printed $5 trillion.

00:25:34.000 What could possibly go wrong?

00:25:36.000 Consumer confidence just hit a 10-year low and inflation hit 6.8%, with parts of the United States seeing rates as high as 8%.

00:25:43.000 Something is not adding up.

00:25:44.000 Inflation is here, everybody, and you've got to do something about it.

00:25:47.000 Put some of your assets into precious metals, and it will keep your money away from the volatility markets and inflation to let you sleep at night.

00:26:21.000 So just so our audience knows, Ray Epps, again, this is all allegedly, but there's a video of him on the night of January 5th screaming, We're going to go into the Capitol tomorrow.

00:26:33.000 We're going to go into the Capitol tomorrow.

00:26:35.000 And the response from the crowd was, no, he's a Fed, he's a Fed.

00:26:39.000 And then thanks to Darren Beattie's journalism, like legitimate journalism, an unbelievably factual article at Revolver.news.

00:26:48.000 Amazing.

00:26:49.000 No, there was like no politics in that article at all.

00:26:51.000 It wasn't like, I like Trump, I hate Trump.

00:26:53.000 It's like, here's the facts.

00:26:55.000 Ray Epps was like alpha male posturing at the top of the stairs of the first part, basically almost conducting traffic.

00:27:05.000 At the Peacegate.

00:27:07.000 Yes.

00:27:07.000 So in part two, that he just came out just the other day.

00:27:12.000 The path that they all took after the speech at the ellipse from the White House, they came down this road, and the path that they would have taken, they had to go through the Peacegate. 0.52

00:27:21.000 It just says where you would have walked to go to the Capitol.

00:27:23.000 And Ray Epps stood at the Peacegate, just telling everyone to go in the Capitol.

00:27:29.000 And they had started to.

00:27:30.000 Bizarrely specific.

00:27:32.000 Yeah.

00:27:32.000 And they started to, he was there, and they had people there taking down the fences while Trump was still sitting there.

00:27:37.000 And then, if I remember correctly, then the Proud Boys came down the street almost simultaneously.

00:27:43.000 Like, you're right, after, but it was.

00:27:45.000 It was one after the other.

00:27:46.000 Yes.

00:27:46.000 It was like perfectly timed.

00:27:48.000 Yes, perfectly timed.

00:27:49.000 And then there was another man, and he was the guy that was up on the scaffolding.

00:27:54.000 Yep.

00:27:55.000 And this is all in videos.

00:27:56.000 That's what's incredible about it.

00:27:58.000 Deer and beaty has done such a different opinion than some people.

00:28:02.000 And some people say, you know, their way to try and push back against the January 6th committee is they say, oh, we should not care who cares.

00:28:10.000 I'm actually super interested.

00:28:11.000 I'm super interested in who planted the pipe bombs.

00:28:14.000 Me too.

00:28:14.000 Like, I'm really interested in that.

00:28:15.000 Why doesn't anyone care about Ray Epps?

00:28:17.000 Me too.

00:28:18.000 I'm interested in federal informants that might have been involved.

00:28:21.000 Me too.

00:28:22.000 And everyone should be interested in that.

00:28:23.000 And why wasn't the National Guard there even though it was requested?

00:28:26.000 Yeah, I don't know.

00:28:26.000 So I got to ask you about that.

00:28:28.000 I've heard contradicting theories on the National Guard, like Pelosi.

00:28:33.000 I've heard it on both sides, people I trust.

00:28:36.000 What do you think is the truth of that?

00:28:37.000 Do you think there was like a stand down order?

00:28:40.000 Well, it appears to be that way.

00:28:42.000 President Trump requested the National Guard.

00:28:44.000 And I want to start with this.

00:28:45.000 On January 4th, my second day on the job, there were other members of Congress there that told me that there was intel there was going to be violence at the Capitol.

00:28:56.000 And that was on January 4th.

00:28:58.000 And I was like, oh, so Antifa and these BLM rioters are going to come. 0.93

00:29:01.000 That's what I thought because that's what we saw in 2020.

00:29:04.000 But no, it was known.

00:29:06.000 The intel was there that there was going to be some violence.

00:29:09.000 And that's why President Trump said we need 10,000 National Guard, the sergeant-in-arms, and then ultimately Nancy Pelosi as the Speaker of the House, as the authority over the sergeant-in-arms, they turned down the request.

00:29:22.000 Yeah, so it's super confusing to me because over the summer when this committee started, there were people testifying saying that there were threats that were ignored.

00:29:29.000 And then there was the Northern Virginia FBI field office.

00:29:33.000 That's where I'm a little confused because did we just kind of forget about that whole part of this?

00:29:39.000 They just moved on, I guess, from that, right?

00:29:42.000 Apparently so.

00:29:43.000 But I see it's really a tragedy because many of the Capitol police were victims of all of this too.

00:29:49.000 There's been 200, over 200 of them have quit this year.

00:29:54.000 And so they were basically set up to fail.

00:29:56.000 The Capitol Police were set up to fail.

00:29:58.000 The people, the innocent people that went there were set up to fail.

00:30:02.000 And it just by default, it turned into this thing that shouldn't have happened.

00:30:07.000 No, it shouldn't have happened.

00:30:08.000 The whole thing was, it was a bad day.

00:30:11.000 And I said it on air live as it was happening.

00:30:15.000 But what's interesting to me, and I want everyone to be held accountable.

00:30:19.000 I want justice to play out in the human souls and yearning for justice.

00:30:23.000 But I also want if there were instigators or people that were trying that know how to work a crowd and know that's a really important component of this.

00:30:33.000 Completely.

00:30:33.000 And so let's go back to committees.

00:30:35.000 If Republicans take back the House in 2022 and we're able to take back control in 2024, what Republicans need to do in charge is we should investigate these things.

00:30:45.000 We should investigate them thoroughly.

00:30:46.000 I totally agree.

00:30:47.000 And then we should do, not just investigate them.

00:30:50.000 I'm really tired of committees and investigations.

00:30:52.000 There should be accountability.

00:30:54.000 People should be fired.

00:30:55.000 People should be held accountable.

00:30:56.000 It's easier said than done, unfortunately.

00:30:58.000 Right, because that goes into the more realistic is that you need to transparently and quickly present it to the people.

00:31:06.000 100%.

00:31:06.000 And eventually consensus can be made to change those.

00:31:09.000 The other question is their guy that planted the pipe bombs, which is an act of terrorism, whoever that person is, I hope he goes to jail for a long time.

00:31:16.000 Absolutely.

00:31:17.000 And we just kind of forgot about it.

00:31:19.000 He was using his cell phone on the park bench.

00:31:22.000 Why are we not able to triangulate his location and his PIN number, not PIN number, his SIM card?

00:31:30.000 Right.

00:31:30.000 So here we have people's tele, you know, they're subpoenaing the telecommunications companies for people's cell phone data.

00:31:37.000 I'm on a list of 13 members of Congress that supposedly were supposed to have our cell phone data subpoenaed.

00:31:43.000 We'll see if that happens soon.

00:31:45.000 There's a lawsuit around that, right?

00:31:46.000 Yeah, there is.

00:31:47.000 But so it's interesting, though, why are they not reaching out and trying to figure out whose cell phone that was?

00:31:53.000 Well, it should be pretty easy, right?

00:31:54.000 So they arrested a lot of people at the Capitol really early on, like the first couple weeks, based on triangulation of SIM cards.

00:32:02.000 Yes.

00:32:03.000 And they were bragging to the country about how sophisticated the FBI was fine.

00:32:08.000 Okay, whatever.

00:32:09.000 But you can't find out whose SIM card that was who's sitting on the bench with the pipe bombs.

00:32:13.000 Yes.

00:32:13.000 And the thing about the pipe bombs that doesn't make any sense to me.

00:32:17.000 And no one has really said this out loud.

00:32:19.000 I think Tucker has, is that it's so disconnected with any of the other activity that happened the next day.

00:32:27.000 Do you know what I mean?

00:32:28.000 Like if the narrative that is truthful is that Trump spoke as he was speaking, the gates started to get penetrated.

00:32:36.000 There may or may not have been some instigators.

00:32:38.000 Evidence shows that there was.

00:32:39.000 Yes.

00:32:39.000 People then decided to made a mistake, went to the Capitol.

00:32:44.000 Some assaulted police officers unacceptably should go to jail for that.

00:32:47.000 Some decided to destroy property, which just really disgusts me as an American.

00:32:50.000 I don't like it.

00:32:51.000 Right, I agree.

00:32:52.000 None of that is, we didn't find people with AR-15s.

00:32:57.000 No.

00:32:57.000 Firearms, pistols.

00:32:58.000 No.

00:32:59.000 So the pipe bomb thing is really strange.

00:33:03.000 I got to be honest.

00:33:04.000 I agree.

00:33:04.000 It is.

00:33:05.000 And it was the RNC and the DNC.

00:33:07.000 So it wasn't one party.

00:33:08.000 It was both parties.

00:33:09.000 There was pipe bombs at both parties.

00:33:11.000 So there's a lot of questions to be asked there.

00:33:14.000 The other thing you mentioned is no one was armed.

00:33:16.000 And here we are.

00:33:17.000 We support the Second Amendment.

00:33:18.000 And I own guns.

00:33:19.000 And I guarantee you.

00:33:20.000 One guy was armed.

00:33:21.000 He was allowed to be.

00:33:22.000 And he was a DEA agent.

00:33:25.000 Okay.

00:33:25.000 And he got, what's his name?

00:33:27.000 Mike, he was around here.

00:33:28.000 You'd know his name.

00:33:28.000 Ryan, you could ask Rob what his name is.

00:33:30.000 He wouldn't know what it is.

00:33:32.000 He was on Tucker's deal, and he's like facing 15 to 20 years in prison.

00:33:36.000 Right.

00:33:36.000 This is him.

00:33:37.000 He's the one who says that his best friend told him to go into the Capitol who ended up being an FBI informant.

00:33:43.000 Yeah.

00:33:44.000 So there again, there again.

00:33:46.000 There's so much here that is, I think, important.

00:33:50.000 If they want to make a national spectacle out of this, I want the truth.

00:33:54.000 The truth will set us free.

00:33:55.000 I think the American people deserve the truth.

00:33:57.000 And Charlie, I see it very simply is the American people pay the taxes.

00:34:01.000 We're supposed to be a government for the people, by the people.

00:34:03.000 The American people do deserve the truth.

00:34:06.000 And the media, who has the freedom of press and God, we need a freedom of press, but we need a press that actually uses it.

00:34:15.000 They're obligated to tell the truth to the American people.

00:34:18.000 Yeah.

00:34:18.000 And I just, I mean, again, the left, they would never think this.

00:34:21.000 But like, let's pretend for a second that there were instigators.

00:34:25.000 Right.

00:34:26.000 Then wouldn't the New York Times think for a second, huh?

00:34:29.000 What's to prevent the FBI from having BLM instigators at a future one of their, you know, Wendy burning ceremonies or whatever they do, right?

00:34:39.000 When they go burn down cities.

00:34:41.000 Wouldn't that bother them?

00:34:43.000 You would think it would, but then again, they know the truth about us.

00:34:47.000 We aren't going to do that.

00:34:48.000 Yeah.

00:34:49.000 And again, I just, I'm, I'm disappointed in a lot of different ways.

00:34:53.000 And I do think, though, and I want to give Hillsdale College a shout out.

00:34:56.000 I don't know if you saw this or not.

00:34:58.000 The Imprimus in October and November, the front page of Emprimus, it was the January 6th committee hoax.

00:35:06.000 It was like, and for Hillsdale College to do that, 10 million readers.

00:35:12.000 Big deal.

00:35:12.000 I mean, and I do have to say that the intellectual community has been pretty good on this.

00:35:18.000 But I think that the more that we get into this, and then they're altering messages from Mark Meadows.

00:35:25.000 Of course.

00:35:26.000 His email.

00:35:28.000 They did that.

00:35:29.000 Yes.

00:35:30.000 The January 6th committee.

00:35:31.000 With Jim Jordan or something?

00:35:32.000 Yes, they cut off a sentence and put a period where it didn't exist to change how it read.

00:35:39.000 Then, of course, Liz Cheney reading his text message, which I thought was beautiful.

00:35:43.000 It was exculpatory.

00:35:44.000 It was.

00:35:45.000 It was like, wait, everyone.

00:35:46.000 They read one of mine, I think.

00:35:47.000 Yeah.

00:35:48.000 You know, it was all the way.

00:35:49.000 Supported this?

00:35:50.000 Exactly.

00:35:50.000 Like, please tell President Trump to stop.

00:35:52.000 Tell the people to stop.

00:35:53.000 Please tell everybody to go home.

00:35:55.000 You know, a president should make a statement telling people that are reacting violently to stop and go home.

00:36:02.000 I don't think there's anything bad there.

00:36:03.000 And if Republicans and Mark Ibrahim was the DEA.

00:36:07.000 Okay.

00:36:07.000 Mark.

00:36:08.000 Yes.

00:36:08.000 Yeah, that's right.

00:36:09.000 Sorry.

00:36:09.000 Yep.

00:36:10.000 Yeah.

00:36:11.000 But no, it's all a farce.

00:36:14.000 And I think it's just another page out of the playbook that seems to be repetitive because we saw it with Trump-Russia collusion.

00:36:21.000 And they have to continue to tell the story, tell the story the way they want it.

00:36:25.000 The media, it's like, you know, rinse and repeat, rinse and repeat the same story and over and over.

00:36:30.000 And it's up to the American people if they're going to buy this lie on January 6th or if they want to pursue the truth and see it happen.

00:36:37.000 Double-digit inflation, borders are wide open.

00:36:39.000 Yes.

00:36:40.000 Give weapons to the Taliban, $85 billion worth.

00:36:43.000 Yes.

00:36:43.000 We have 100,000 opioid deaths, most oppressed, suicidal, and alcohol and drug-addicted generation in history.

00:36:49.000 What do they have to hope for?

00:36:50.000 This is what the regime is focused on.

00:36:52.000 Talk a little bit about that.

00:36:53.000 Okay.

00:36:54.000 So here we have this option right now.

00:36:57.000 I think this is where Republican voters need to make a serious decision.

00:37:02.000 Going into 2022, and especially after seeing what's happened, seeing things like Mitch McConnell make a deal with Chuck Schumer, where he raises the debt ceiling to $31.5 trillion.

00:37:16.000 Seeing, and I put it on my social media, I hope everybody saw it.

00:37:19.000 Seeing where Republican senators just don't even bother voting or voting against nomines.

00:37:25.000 Yeah, let's take a pause.

00:37:26.000 I didn't understand this.

00:37:27.000 Let's talk about voting in Congress.

00:37:29.000 Yeah, so honestly, I think I understand a lot of things with this in this space.

00:37:33.000 I didn't get this at all.

00:37:34.000 So walk me through it.

00:37:35.000 Okay, so here's what I found out when I got kicked off committee.

00:37:38.000 I found out a lot, by the way, when I got kicked off committees.

00:37:42.000 Congress doesn't vote with their voting cards.

00:37:44.000 Most bills that are passed are passed by voice with only a few hands.

00:37:49.000 Okay.

00:37:49.000 Okay, so most people don't know that.

00:37:50.000 If you object, then it has to go to.

00:37:53.000 No, no, no.

00:37:54.000 No.

00:37:54.000 So they'll bring a bill to the floor and both sides debate the bill back and forth.

00:37:58.000 And the speaker up there calls the vote, the yays and nays.

00:38:03.000 The Democrats, because they're going to vote for everything, they're over there saying yay.

00:38:07.000 And the Republicans over here are like, nay.

00:38:09.000 And then by listening with their ears, the person that's supposed to be Nancy Pelosi that hardly ever is, and they wear a mask on their face, decides if the bill passes or doesn't pass.

00:38:20.000 But yet we have 435 members of Congress and we all have a voting card that we're supposed to put in an electronic machine and record it.

00:38:28.000 That doesn't happen.

00:38:29.000 They just get to listen and then they get to say the bill passes and they gavel it in.

00:38:36.000 And when I saw that happen for the first time, it happened the day after I got kicked off committees.

00:38:41.000 And I was like, are you kidding me?

00:38:43.000 This is how we spend our tax dollar.

00:38:46.000 This is how they pass bills.

00:38:47.000 No, every, and guess what?

00:38:49.000 When they vote by voice, there's no record.

00:38:52.000 Okay.

00:38:52.000 No one knows how anyone votes.

00:38:54.000 So it's like going to work every day.

00:38:56.000 Not every vote is that way, right?

00:38:57.000 A lot, most of them.

00:38:59.000 Until I thought that.

00:39:00.000 Like the infrastructure bill wasn't that way.

00:39:02.000 No, key votes are always on record.

00:39:05.000 Key votes.

00:39:06.000 But I'm talking about spending millions and millions of dollars.

00:39:08.000 100%.

00:39:09.000 No, I get it.

00:39:09.000 Here, I'll give you an example.

00:39:11.000 So when I saw it happen, I started using floor procedure and I started asking for the recorded votes.

00:39:17.000 Well, everyone, their minds were blown.

00:39:20.000 Like, how dare she do this? 0.80

00:39:21.000 And Democrats were irritated because it threw off the schedule, but Republicans were really angry because they don't want to be on record because they vote for a lot of bad things.

00:39:29.000 And so I got chewed out.

00:39:30.000 You wouldn't believe it.

00:39:31.000 That's a story for another time.

00:39:33.000 Here's, I'll give you an example.

00:39:35.000 Corey Bush had a bill, Corey Bush, the BLM Congresswoman, that brought the mob through the McCloskeys neighborhood. 0.96

00:39:42.000 She had a bill that came to the floor to allow felons to vote. 0.89

00:39:47.000 This was going to become a federal law.

00:39:49.000 The bill passed by voice.

00:39:51.000 Not kidding.

00:39:52.000 The speaker up there said bill passed.

00:39:54.000 I jumped up to the microphone and I said, Madam Speaker, I asked for the recorded votes.

00:39:59.000 So by doing that, asking for the recorded votes, that makes all 435 members stop what they're doing, have to come to the chamber right then and vote by on record.

00:40:09.000 And it has to be recorded how we all vote.

00:40:12.000 We defeated that bill.

00:40:13.000 Congress defeated that bill in a majority Democrat.

00:40:16.000 When was this?

00:40:17.000 This was, I think it was back in March.

00:40:19.000 Yeah, nobody probably heard of it.

00:40:21.000 Guess what?

00:40:22.000 Republicans and the minority.

00:40:24.000 We defeated a bill by a member of Congress that doesn't have committees.

00:40:29.000 And it's simply because I use floor procedure.

00:40:32.000 So what happened with this, you tweeted something out where if like Republicans wouldn't have shown up or something, they couldn't have passed a bill.

00:40:38.000 Am I remembering this correctly?

00:40:40.000 So this is why it's important to explain voting.

00:40:42.000 We can also choose to vote present or we can just not vote.

00:40:47.000 We don't have to vote.

00:40:48.000 We're not required to vote.

00:40:49.000 We should vote.

00:40:50.000 It's our job performance.

00:40:51.000 It seems to be our duty, but they can choose not to vote.

00:40:55.000 I can choose not to vote.

00:40:56.000 Senators can choose not to vote.

00:40:58.000 We can even just not show up at work, believe it or not.

00:41:01.000 And since COVID, you could do remote voting.

00:41:03.000 We can proxy vote, which is insane.

00:41:07.000 So over in the Senate, this is where they confirm all of President Biden's nominees, judges, like all these people.

00:41:14.000 And, you know, a lot of your viewers and everyone has heard about these radical people with insane beliefs and comments, and they're being passed through the nomination process.

00:41:24.000 Well, remember how when President Trump was there and Democrats just fought every nomination?

00:41:29.000 Republican senators aren't doing that. 1.00

00:41:32.000 They literally aren't.

00:41:33.000 So the other day, this is what we found out.

00:41:36.000 A whole bunch of the senators decided to go home for Christmas early, just didn't stay to vote no against these people.

00:41:42.000 And now President Biden has in like a record number of judges.

00:41:47.000 I mean, he's gotten, I don't know if it's like well over 40.

00:41:50.000 You got to explain this to me.

00:41:51.000 So that's through the Judiciary Committee.

00:41:53.000 No, that's in the Senate.

00:41:55.000 No, no, the Senate Judiciary Committee.

00:41:56.000 Oh, yes, yes.

00:41:57.000 But they still have to vote.

00:41:59.000 But so, but in order to get them confirmed, they need more than 50 votes.

00:41:59.000 Right.

00:42:03.000 Is that right?

00:42:04.000 Well, yeah.

00:42:04.000 So they have to have a majority and there's 100 senators.

00:42:08.000 Yeah.

00:42:08.000 And we've got to.

00:42:09.000 So but are any Republicans voting for these judges is my question?

00:42:11.000 A lot of them aren't even voting.

00:42:13.000 That's my point.

00:42:14.000 They're going home.

00:42:15.000 But what would it matter if it's 50 on the other side, right? 0.63

00:42:19.000 Well, because they don't, they can, so no, they're just not even voting.

00:42:23.000 That's the whole point.

00:42:24.000 They're just leaving.

00:42:25.000 They're not even there.

00:42:26.000 That doesn't surprise me, to be honest.

00:42:27.000 Like they're mostly a waste of rations.

00:42:29.000 So it's like but they still should show up and do their job.

00:42:33.000 That is, that's how bad it is.

00:42:35.000 So people going into 22 looking at elections, here's a problem, Charlie.

00:42:40.000 And the GOP doesn't want to face it.

00:42:42.000 We have a percentage in this country of Republican voters that are still so mad about the election, they're saying they're not going to vote.

00:42:50.000 I've pulled it twice, and there's about a 4% to 5% that will say on the poll, I'm not voting.

00:42:56.000 People should be freaking out over that.

00:42:58.000 Georgia and my state, that scares me to death because we are close.

00:43:02.000 Yeah.

00:43:03.000 So is Georgia going to go into a special session to fix some of this stuff? 1.00

00:43:06.000 Well, they've already passed the new election law, but they didn't get rid of the absentee ballots.

00:43:11.000 And here we're going into a year.

00:43:13.000 We have Stacey Abrams running for governor. 1.00

00:43:15.000 Yeah.

00:43:15.000 And we're going to have a mess on our hands.

00:43:17.000 I think Purdue is going to beat Kemp in the primary.

00:43:19.000 That's probably right.

00:43:20.000 We'll see what happens.

00:43:21.000 You wouldn't believe my state is interesting.

00:43:23.000 Yeah.

00:43:23.000 I know Vernon Jones is also running and I know all that, but not a Kemp fan, that's for sure.

00:43:29.000 Herschel Walker, I am a fan of, though.

00:43:30.000 Yes.

00:43:31.000 We need to get him to beat Warnock.

00:43:33.000 He will.

00:43:33.000 He'll be Warnock.

00:43:34.000 Right.

00:43:35.000 But we need people to show up and vote.

00:43:36.000 Oh, totally.

00:43:36.000 Yes.

00:43:37.000 We also need to restore people's faith in the system and in the process.

00:43:40.000 So, all right.

00:43:42.000 So thank you for your time and thank you for what you're doing.

00:43:45.000 Anything you want to plug to our audience in closing?

00:43:48.000 Oh, I just would like to ask people to take the time to look up the phone number to the D.C. jail, call them, call the mayor's office, Mayor Muriel Bowser in Washington, D.C. Demand.

00:43:59.000 I've sent a letter demanding that Deputy Warden Kathleen Landerkin be fired from her job. 1.00

00:44:04.000 Her social media is filled with radical beliefs.

00:44:07.000 She hates Trump. 0.60

00:44:08.000 She hates people that support him. 1.00

00:44:09.000 She hates white men. 1.00

00:44:10.000 Even though she's a white lady, she thinks they should be extinct. 1.00

00:44:13.000 She hates borders and border walls, but she puts people in solitary confinement. 1.00

00:44:17.000 This woman is, they say, the cause of their abuse.

00:44:20.000 Please call in and demand that she be fired. 1.00

00:44:24.000 Pray for, we need due process.

00:44:26.000 We need fair trials and we need that to continue.

00:44:30.000 But I think everyone should just need to use their voice.

00:44:33.000 Marjorie Taylor Green, you're supposed to hate her, but after you listen to her, she actually makes a lot of sense.

00:44:38.000 So thank you so much.
