00:01:02.000 Here we go.
00:01:04.000 Charlie, what you've done is incredible here.
00:01:05.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.
00:01:07.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
00:01:11.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.
00:01:14.000 I want to thank Charlie.
00:01:15.000 He's an incredible guy.
00:01:16.000 His spirit, his love of this country.
00:01:18.000 He's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.
00:01:25.000 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.
00:01:33.000 That's why we are here.
00:01:36.000 Brought to you by Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage.
00:01:39.000 For personalized loan services, you can count on.
00:01:41.000 Go to andrewandodd.com, the wonderfulandrewandtodd.com.
00:01:48.000 So there's plenty of Ukraine and Russia news.
00:01:51.000 We're going to put that aside for a second.
00:01:52.000 A lot of that is actually probably overcovered right now.
00:01:56.000 And there's some very important domestic news that we have to get to.
00:02:00.000 Article 3 of the United States Constitution states very clearly that the judicial branch of government must have its own independent and equal authority.
00:02:18.000 Article 3 is very important.
00:02:20.000 Article 3 at times gets glossed over because the executive branch and the legislative branch get all of the coverage.
00:02:30.000 The digital branch of the United States shall be vested in one Supreme Court, and such inferior courts as Congress may from time to time ordain and establish.
00:02:40.000 So it's important to know that circuit courts actually are not in the Constitution.
00:02:45.000 They were created by Congress.
00:02:47.000 The judges, both of the Supreme and Inferior Courts, shall hold their offices during good behavior and shall at stated times receive for their services a compensation which shall not be diminished during their continuance in office.
00:03:00.000 Article 3 starts this idea of the independent judiciary.
00:03:04.000 So the idea of having the legislative and the executive separate was profound for the founding fathers to put into writing in the structure of the government.
00:03:14.000 But then to have an independent judiciary that could be a check on the other two branches of government, that really cemented the moral principle that not one individual, not one party, not one idea, not one message, not one movement should have monopoly control over your civilization.
00:03:35.000 Well, right now, as Vladimir Putin continues his reckless and immoral invasion of Ukraine, very quietly, there is a Senate confirmation fight looming over the upcoming Supreme Court justice vacancy filled by Justice Breyer.
00:03:55.000 Katanji Brown Jackson is up for the nomination to become a Supreme Court justice.
00:04:03.000 Katanji Brown Jackson is an individual who has not received, I think, adequate press coverage.
00:04:12.000 So that's what we're going to do today.
00:04:14.000 We're going to make sure you know and your Republican senators know via you and your Republican representatives know, even though the House of Representatives has very little say in Supreme Court fights, exactly who is this individual?
00:04:28.000 Who is this person who has kind of operated in the shadows of the media, largely because of the war in Ukraine?
00:04:37.000 Who is Katanji Brown Jackson?
00:04:39.000 Well, first of all, let's talk about how Katanji Brown Jackson was selected.
00:04:44.000 Well, Katanji Brown Jackson was selected not because of her wisdom or because of her interpretation of prior cases or because of her firm rulings or because of her belief in the Constitution.
00:05:02.000 She was selected for irrelevant criteria.
00:05:07.000 Joe Biden said it very similarly.
00:05:08.000 He said, I made a pledge to select a black female to go to the United States Supreme Court.
00:05:13.000 Why does that matter exactly?
00:05:16.000 Why does melanin content matter to your constitutional interpretation?
00:05:20.000 Where in this beautiful document that I'm holding, published by Turning Point USA, the United States Constitution, where does skin color matter at all in the promise of the Constitution or in the promise of the Declaration that, of course, preceded it?
00:05:35.000 We, the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, ensure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty due to ourselves and our posterity, ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
00:05:51.000 Where does skin color matter at all there?
00:05:56.000 Katanji Brown Jackson has a very disturbing history.
00:06:02.000 Very few people know much about her at all.
00:06:05.000 In fact, some people are saying that I only know her because of her qualification of being a black female.
00:06:12.000 I think it's an insult to just select people based on their immutable characteristics.
00:06:19.000 We should select people because they're the best person for the job.
00:06:23.000 It's an insult to her as well, by the way.
00:06:26.000 It's an insult to this individual, Katanji Brown Jackson, if she was actually a phenomenal judge, which we'll get into.
00:06:36.000 So let's get into some of the background of Katanji Brown Jackson.
00:06:42.000 Jackson worked as a lawyer for several terrorists detained at Guantamano Bay, Gitmo, including a Taliban intelligence officer who is likely a leader of a terrorist cell.
00:06:52.000 Jackson was a public defender, so you can't blame her for representing terrorists.
00:06:58.000 Everyone needs and deserves representation.
00:07:01.000 But Jackson's advocacy for these terrorists was zealous and going beyond just giving them a competent defense.
00:07:08.000 Despite Jackson's claim that she did not get to choose her clients as a public defender, she continued to advocate for these gitmo terrorists when she went into private practice.
00:07:19.000 Jackson is a Democrat partisan.
00:07:22.000 She worked for the Obama presidential campaign and as a poll monitor and donated to Obama.
00:07:27.000 Jackson is a registered Democrat and her husband donated $1,600 to the Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign.
00:07:34.000 Since her appointment to the D.C. Circuit last June, Judge Katanji Brown Jackson has yet to publish a single opinion.
00:07:43.000 Here's some other things that she's best known for.
00:07:46.000 She blocked President Trump's executive orders to hold failing federal employees accountable, a decision that the D.C. Circuit unanimously reversed.
00:07:55.000 Jackson blocked the Trump administration from expanding its expedited removal program to deport illegals faster, absurdly saying the DHS did not consider the impact on illegal immigrants.
00:08:05.000 And a left-wing immigration group applauded Katanji Jackson Brown for refusing to use the term alien or illegal.
00:08:17.000 I'm sorry, Katanji Brown Jackson.
00:08:19.000 I got my terms confused.
00:08:21.000 Her name confused, I should say.
00:08:23.000 But there's another very disturbing wrinkle and development in her history as a judge.
00:08:32.000 As far back as in law school, Judge Jackson, who by the way is now up for advise and consent in front of the United States Senate, has questioned making convicts register as sex offenders.
00:08:45.000 One of her crusades in life has been that we need to go out of our way to go protect sex offenders.
00:08:52.000 She has said that it has led to stigmatization and ostracization.
00:08:57.000 She suggested public policy is driven by, quote, a climate of fear, hatred, and revenge against sex offenders.
00:09:06.000 As a member of the U.S. Sentencing Commission, Judge Jackson advocated for dramatic changes in how the law treats sex offenders by eliminating the existing mandatory minimum sentences for child pornography.
00:09:19.000 In her time on the U.S. Sentencing Commission, Judge Jackson, quote, mistakenly assumed that child pornography offenders are pedophiles, quote, to understand this category of non-pedophiles who obtain child pornography.
00:09:35.000 Judge Jackson was given an opportunity to sentence someone who was a sex offender.
00:09:43.000 And even though the government was recommending 10 years of prison, Judge Jackson sentenced the perpetrator to only three months in prison, three months.
00:09:54.000 Why is she so soft and why does she have a soft spot for people that commit some of the most heinous, unspeakable crimes in our nation?
00:10:04.000 Is the Republican Party going to ask about this?
00:10:06.000 Are the Senate Republicans going to ask Katanji Brown Jackson about these rulings and these opinions?
00:10:14.000 Well, right now, the U.S. Supreme Court, the future of the U.S. Supreme Court is being decided in the U.S. Senate.
00:10:22.000 Being an entrepreneur and running a business is not for the faint of heart.
00:10:25.000 I have two jobs.
00:10:26.000 I'd do the Charlie Kirk show till noon, then Turning Point USA till I go to sleep and all the problems in between.
00:10:31.000 A lot of stress.
00:10:32.000 330 days on the road I spent last year.
00:10:34.000 But if you're not careful, the stress can start to take a toll on your body, raising your blood pressure, making it harder to sleep, draining you of vital energy, and making you more irritable.
00:10:43.000 That's why I recommend you supplement with magnesium daily.
00:10:46.000 About 75% of people are magnesium deficient.
00:10:49.000 That number might be higher among business owners and C-level professionals.
00:10:53.000 That's because stress depletes magnesium levels.
00:10:55.000 This can trigger a various cycle of rising stress and severe magnesium deficiency.
00:11:00.000 This deficiency can lead to higher levels of anxiety, irritability, trouble sleeping, and low energy.
00:11:05.000 It can even contribute to foot and leg cramps while you sleep.
00:11:08.000 Now, you might be wondering, does magnesium really affect all these things?
00:11:11.000 Well, the answer is yes.
00:11:12.000 In fact, magnesium is involved in more than 300 chemical processes inside your body.
00:11:16.000 So a lot of different things can start to go wrong if you're deficient.
00:11:19.000 The good news is you can experience a number of positive health benefits just by getting enough magnesium, including better sleep, more energy, healthy blood pressure, less irritability, a calmer mood, stronger bones, reduced muscle cramping, and even a few migraines.
00:11:31.000 But to experience these health benefits, you have to get the right kinds of magnesium.
00:11:34.000 Truth is, most magnesium supplements you find in health stores use the only two cheapest synthetic forms.
00:11:39.000 They're not full spectrum.
00:11:40.000 There are actually seven unique forms of magnesium.
00:11:43.000 You must get all of them if you want to experience its calming stress-relieving effects.
00:11:46.000 That's why I recommend magnesium breakthrough from Buy Optimizers.
00:11:50.000 It's the only full organic, full-spectrum magnesium supplement that includes seven unique forms of magnesium for stress relief.
00:11:57.000 Better sleep all in one bottle.
00:11:58.000 Simply take two capsules before you go to bed, and you'll be amazed by the improvements in your mood and energy levels.
00:12:03.000 And how much more rested do you feel when you wake up?

00:12:23.000 The United States Constitution is the greatest political document ever written.
00:12:27.000 Praise God that the founding fathers had the foresight, had the wisdom, had the time to study human nature and put together the Constitution as we know it.
00:12:38.000 It's an exceptional document.
00:12:39.000 One of the reasons why America is such a unique country is that we did not drift into existence.
00:12:47.000 It did not come into existence over a long period of time.
00:12:50.000 It was summoned into existence.
00:12:53.000 We demanded the country to exist.
00:12:56.000 And around the United States Constitution and the fights for ratification and the principles of the Declaration, which fit in each other perfectly, was this argument.
00:13:08.000 What should the structure of our government be?
00:13:10.000 And separation of powers and checks and balances are fundamental to that.
00:13:15.000 Now, when you start to look a level deeper into Katanji Brown Jackson, we start to realize that she has said some very positive things about people that don't believe the United States Constitution is exceptional, that don't believe that the founding was unique.
00:13:35.000 From Breitbart.com, Katangi Brown Jackson, who is President Biden's nominee for Supreme Court seat, vacated by Justice Breyer, cited critical race theory founder Derek Bell and the 1619 project as inspirations in 2020.
00:13:51.000 She talks about how the book, Faces at the Bottom of the Well, written by Professor Derek Bell, who also wrote an intro to critical race theory in the early 1990s.
00:14:04.000 Judge Jackson also cited the fraudulent 1619 project of Nicole Hanna-Jones and the New York Times, which won the Pulitzer Prize, despite falsely claiming that the United States fought the American Revolution to defend slavery in the South.
00:14:18.000 Judge Jackson closed her lecture at University of Michigan, citing what, quote, she said the favorite civil rights photographed of modern times was an image of a 2016 protest over the police shooting of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile.
00:14:33.000 So why is it so important that we pinpoint whether or not Katanji Brown Jackson views American history correctly?
00:14:40.000 Well, she's going to have a lot of power.
00:14:42.000 She's going to be one of nine to determine whether or not laws and actions, Congress and executive, is constitutional.
00:14:51.000 But if she views America as being sinful from the beginning, if she looks the American structure of the Constitution to be corroded, then how will her interpretations, how will her rulings ever be in harmony or consistent with what is proper and necessary for the American Republic?
00:15:11.000 Well, she doesn't believe we are a republic.
00:15:14.000 Based on the Article III project on a document that they published, quote, she says that in a democracy, safeguards are built in to protect human dignity.
00:15:23.000 The effect of sanction rather than the reason for imposing it must necessarily be that criteria.
00:15:29.000 Now, she's doing that while defending sex offenders, a pattern of her rulings, a pattern of her period of time on the bench as a judge on the sentencing commission.
00:15:40.000 She almost always favors the criminal.
00:15:44.000 Katanji Brown Jackson almost always yields in the direction of the perpetrator, never for the victim.
00:15:51.000 But we're not a democracy.
00:15:55.000 Why would we put someone on the U.S. Supreme Court that outwardly does not even know the type of government that we have?
00:16:01.000 We've gone through this many different times.
00:16:04.000 What's so interesting is that the BLM types, the people that support BLM Incorporated, like Nicole Hannah-Jones and Robin DiAngelo, and of course, now Katanji Brown Jackson, they say we're a democracy.
00:16:21.000 What's so interesting is if they actually cared about the rights of a minority, they should know that in a democracy, the rights of individuals can be easily voted away.
00:16:31.000 That's what makes a republic and a democracy fundamentally different, one of the things.
00:16:36.000 For example, in a pure democracy, if we were to put that into practice, you could just say, hey, we want to go take voting rights away from black people.
00:16:47.000 51% of people want that to happen, therefore let's get it done.
00:16:51.000 But in a republic, you are not allowed to use the power of the majority to terrorize or diminish or punish or silence the rights of the minority.
00:17:02.000 You're not allowed to do it.
00:17:04.000 The rights of the minority are protected.
00:17:07.000 The rights to speech, the rights to assembly, the right to arm yourself, the right to privacy, the right to run for office, the right for due process.
00:17:15.000 And yet here she says clearly that, well, we're a democracy.
00:17:18.000 Well, no, we're not.
00:17:19.000 We have some democratic systems within our constitutional government.
00:17:26.000 We have a democratic process of electing individuals, but we are far from a democracy.
00:17:34.000 Hey, everybody, look, we all need extra protection right now, especially.
00:17:39.000 We need natural immunity.
00:17:41.000 And if you've made the natural choice to strengthen your God-given immune response, I really respect that.

00:18:29.000 Judges should not be radicals.
00:18:31.000 They should be tied to what the text intended.
00:18:35.000 They should be textualists.
00:18:36.000 They should be originalists.
00:18:38.000 It never used to be this way when we used to nominate judges to the U.S. Supreme Court and they used to think the founding of the country was potentially racist and saying good things about the author of critical race theory, Derek Bell.
00:18:52.000 We never used to have it this way.
00:18:54.000 But of course, the left, like all things, they can't help themselves but to destroy once beautiful and pristine institutions.
00:19:02.000 Now, we have had radical left-wing judges, make no mistake.
00:19:06.000 The courts have not always been right.
00:19:09.000 In fact, courts usually in American history have been wrong on things that matter.
00:19:14.000 I don't want to say more times than they've been right, but I can make plenty of examples.
00:19:18.000 The Dred Scott case was an insult to humanity.
00:19:22.000 That was seven Democrats and two Republicans on the U.S. Supreme Court that played into the dehumanization of black people.
00:19:31.000 There are many other decisions.
00:19:32.000 Jacobson v. Massachusetts, which allowed for the forced sterilization of women in the 1920s and basically laid the framework for forced vaccinations that we still have in our country.
00:19:45.000 There are many different Supreme Court cases, Roe versus Wade, that we had the Warren Court and the Burger Court, right?
00:19:51.000 One back to the one back to back of liberal court interpretations.
00:19:57.000 It wasn't until, quite honestly, the 1990s with the appointment of the great Clarence Thomas.
00:20:03.000 We're praying for Clarence Thomas, by the way, as he seems to be struggling with something health-related, but I think he's going to be okay based on all public reports.
00:20:13.000 It wasn't until the appointment of Clarence Thomas that Republicans realize, oh, we're losing our freedoms, our liberties, our sovereignty in our country because the other side, they're appointing radical left-wingers like Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who actually came after Clarence Thomas.
00:20:28.000 They're putting these people on the U.S. Supreme Court that don't share any of our values.
00:20:34.000 Now, mind you, one of the things that I want to put forward when it comes to this is that Republicans have been just as guilty at putting awful people on the U.S. Supreme Court.
00:20:46.000 Sandra Day O'Connor, not exactly someone who was a fan of the unborn.
00:20:54.000 John Roberts, as well, someone under George W. Bush.
00:20:59.000 Anthony Kennedy, who was okay on some decisions, but was also a Reagan appointee.
00:21:04.000 Now, we've had some phenomenal conservative justices over the last 20 or 30 years.
00:21:10.000 Justice Rehnquist was phenomenal.
00:21:12.000 Scalia was exceptional.
00:21:14.000 Gorsuch looks to be one of the best we've ever had.
00:21:17.000 Alito is terrific.
00:21:18.000 And the jury is still out, get it, on Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett.
00:21:24.000 But this radical left turn where we don't really care if they're qualified.
00:21:29.000 We don't care whether or not they love the Constitution.
00:21:32.000 We want fundamental transformation happened more explicitly and more transparently under Barack Hussein Obama than any other president.
00:21:44.000 People forget that Obama got two Supreme Court justices very early in his presidency.
00:21:49.000 That's, of course, where we got Justice Kagan and Justice Sotomayor.
00:21:52.000 They kind of just skated right through Congress.
00:21:55.000 No one thought to ask them any serious questions.
00:21:58.000 Of course, Justice Sotomayor has been probably one of the worst justices in the history of the United States.
00:22:03.000 Her rulings are basically incoherent.
00:22:06.000 Her babblings when she asks questions, I mean, I think back to just recently, she had her statistics so wildly wrong on children dying of COVID, it made international news for days that a U.S. Supreme Court could be so woefully uninformed.
00:22:22.000 Justice Kagan is a little bit smarter than Justice Sotomayor, but not by a lot.
00:22:28.000 And so the court has basically become a partisan instrument.
00:22:31.000 But mind you, when conservatives want constitutionalists on the Supreme Court, that's not actually partisan.
00:22:38.000 That is, by definition, exactly what you should want.
00:22:42.000 You should want people on the U.S. Supreme Court that love the Constitution, that know why it's there, to protect individual liberty, to restrain government, not restrain human behavior, to believe in separation of powers, the consent of the governed, and yes, the independent judiciary.
00:23:04.000 Checks and balances is a moral good.
00:23:06.000 It comes straight from the biblical teaching that only God should be able to have the power of the executive, the legislative, and the judicial combined into one.
00:23:16.000 Here on earth, with the time we have here, no human government or individual or person should be able to have all that power.
00:23:28.000 Let's get to some sound here.
00:23:30.000 Senator Hawley has been leading the charge, exposing Judge Jackson's inexplicable soft spot for child predators and child pornographers, play cut for.
00:23:47.000 Well, the facts are the facts, and the facts are that Dick Durbin can call names and cast aspersions all he wants, but Judge Jackson sentenced below the sentencing guidelines for every single child porn offender that has come before her.
00:24:00.000 And it's not just one or two, Brian.
00:24:02.000 She's had, to the extent that we can find her cases, she's had at least 10, we believe, 10 different cases with child porn offenders.
00:24:09.000 And in every single one where she had discretion, she sentenced below what the federal recommendation was.
00:24:15.000 She sentenced below what the government recommended.
00:24:17.000 Now, listen, here's what the left's new line is: that's fine.
00:24:20.000 They said, yeah, because child porn sentences are too high.
00:24:23.000 So it's good that Judge Jackson is sentencing leniently.
00:24:27.000 And I guess we can have that debate.
00:24:28.000 I just want to say that I disagree with that.
00:24:30.000 I don't think this is the time to go soft on child porn offenses.
00:24:33.000 Yeah, I don't really think it's much of a debate.
00:24:35.000 I think Senator Hawley is doing his best, Washington, D.C. politician.
00:24:38.000 I actually think he's playing into the irony of the entire situation really effectively.
00:24:42.000 I have a lot of respect for Senator Hawley, where he's basically saying on TV, yeah, I guess we could have a debate of whether or not we should have soft spots for child pornographers.
00:24:49.000 At that moment, everyone screams their TV and says, there is no debate.
00:24:53.000 Well played, Senator Hawley.
00:24:56.000 And it's also weird that so many cases with child porn offenders are flowing through the D.C. Circuit Court, different conversation for a different time.
00:25:03.000 But how are Republicans going to now react to this person, this judge who wants to be on the U.S. Supreme Court being pushed by Biden, who has a soft spot for child pornographers, did advocacy for Gitmoter, sworn enemy against the United States, has a questionable view of the United States founding and a love of critical race theory in the 1619 project.
00:25:28.000 How are Republicans reacting to this?
00:25:31.000 Well, leave it to Lindsey Graham, everybody.
00:25:33.000 Play cut 16.
00:25:35.000 Most of us couldn't go back to our offices during Kavanaugh without getting spit on.
00:25:39.000 Hope that doesn't happen to y'all.
00:25:41.000 I don't think it will.
00:25:43.000 As to the historic nature of your appointment, I understand.
00:25:47.000 But when I get lectured about this from my Democratic colleagues, I remember Janice Rogers Brown, African-American woman.
00:25:54.000 It was filibustered by the same people praising you.
00:25:57.000 I remember, remember Miguel Estrada, one of the finest people I ever met.
00:26:03.000 Completely wiped out.
00:26:07.000 So Senator Graham is lecturing about, I don't really know what he's lecturing about, the fact that there has been other nominees that are black women, I think, for circuit court and federal court decisions.
00:26:17.000 Now, Republicans are starting to dig in a little bit.
00:26:20.000 The question is: so they're saying, look, this is political theater, but with some of the, let's say, revelations by Senator Hawley showing that Katangi Brown Jackson is an advocate, a protector of child pornographers, I think it's going to be really hard for Republicans to approve of her nomination.
00:26:38.000 This went from kind of a rubber stamp exercise to now this is becoming a little bit more contentious.
00:26:43.000 This was always going to be political theater, obviously.
00:26:46.000 But the Republicans now, it seems, have found an angle.
00:26:50.000 And even unexpectedly, the person who only fights if he thinks he can win, and we're by no means automatically against everything this person stands for, but definitely not a fan of most of his views, but he's been pretty good with judges.
00:27:07.000 You've got to give him credit.
00:27:09.000 Senator Mitch McConnell comes out and says that Katanji Brown Jackson has a special empathy for criminals.
00:27:14.000 And of course, then Whoopee Goldberg comes out and loses her mind.
00:27:18.000 That's to be expected.
00:27:20.000 But Republicans seem as if to be digging in a little bit.
00:27:23.000 Now, whether or not we can hold Susan Collins or Lisa Murkowski or all these other people remains to be seen, but Joe Manchin is going to have a little bit of a tough time.
00:27:34.000 A 50-50 Senate is not automatic at all.
00:27:38.000 Now, Mitt Romney will probably lead the charge, will carry the banner to go make sure the Republican Party votes for and endorses a judge who has been a top advocate for child pornographers.
00:27:50.000 Play Cut 17.
00:27:52.000 I also wonder, because, you know, Mitch McConnell says her supporters look at her resume and deduce a special empathy for criminals.
00:28:01.000 You know, I know you don't mean this, but that sounds like code.
00:28:05.000 She comes from a sound family.
00:28:07.000 But it doesn't matter.
00:28:08.000 Listen, she represented a lot of people.
00:28:12.000 And that's the gig when you're a federal republican.
00:28:14.000 That's what you're saying.
00:28:15.000 But you were just hitting on some of that.
00:28:17.000 It's code.
00:28:18.000 And it's cold to tell you that she may be sympathetic to black people.
00:28:25.000 They can't help.
00:28:26.000 That's all they could play is the race card immediately.
00:28:30.000 So look, here is the summary of Judge Katanji Brown Jackson.
00:28:35.000 She's a revolutionary fanatic.
00:28:38.000 She was insultingly selected for her melanin content and her chromosomes, who has a peculiar and disturbing soft spot for child sex offenders and pornographers and gitmo terrorists.
00:28:52.000 That's your one-sentence summary on Katanji Brown Jackson.
00:28:56.000 A revolutionary fanatic selected for her immutable characteristics, who has a soft spot for child pornographers and terrorists.
00:29:04.000 If you think that deserves a spot on the Supreme Court, I will just say this.
00:29:08.000 Our country deserves better.
00:29:11.000 And there are thousands of other judges who are prudent, who are moderate, who love the U.S. Constitution that do not have a long history of going to bat for people that wanted 9-11 to happen or might have involved themselves in it.
00:29:29.000 Third parties say that her advocacy for ghetto terrorists was zealous.
00:29:35.000 And despite after being a public defender, she continued to advocate for the gitmoterists when she went into private practice, going beyond just giving them a competent defense.
00:29:46.000 Washington Free Beacon, the Supreme Court frontrunner, was a zealous advocate for ghetto terror suspects.
00:29:52.000 Maybe this is what happens when you pick people based on immutable characteristics.
00:29:57.000 Maybe that's a bad idea.
00:29:59.000 Maybe instead of saying, huh, we need to just pick people based on the color of their skin or their chromosomal structure.
00:30:10.000 Why don't we pick people based on their wisdom and their experience, their decisions, and their writings?
00:30:19.000 It's like Nicole Hannah-Jones in a robe.
00:30:24.000 It's even worse than that, actually.
00:30:28.000 Republicans seem to be pushing back a little bit, which is a good thing.
00:30:32.000 But any Republican that votes for Katanji Brown Jackson is going to have an extraordinary amount of explaining to do.
00:30:41.000 Katanji Brown Jackson is pointed to be a revolutionary fanatic that will be one of the most nine, most powerful people in America.
00:30:51.000 This guy by the name of Ellie Mistahl, who went to Harvard.
00:30:54.000 It's hard to believe people go to Harvard and they end up like this.
00:30:58.000 Well, actually, it's easy to believe when you actually see what's happening at Harvard nowadays.
00:31:02.000 So he goes on MSNBC while all this is happening.
00:31:05.000 He just goes straight for it.
00:31:07.000 Instead of actually talking about the merits of how Katanji Brown Jackson has gone into great detail about how sex offenders, their rights are being stripped away, about how they need lower sentences, about how child pornographers are not pedophiles, all of these different things, not to mention the gitmo terror advocacy above and beyond just being a public defender.
00:31:29.000 He just goes straight for it.
00:31:30.000 PlayCut 18, Ellie Mistahl.
00:31:32.000 Hear it for yourself.
00:31:34.000 What would you say is the biggest challenge to Judge Jackson's confirmation, if any, given that Democrats have the majority?
00:31:40.000 The biggest challenge is her not getting up out of her chair and punching one of these fools in the mouth.
00:31:44.000 Like, that's the hardest thing.
00:31:46.000 Because all they have for her right now is racism and disgusting innuendo.
00:31:51.000 Like, they don't have anything on her record.
00:31:54.000 What Josh Hawley is doing, let's be very clear.
00:31:57.000 What Josh Hawley is doing when he tries to do this is he's trying to get her killed.
00:32:02.000 He is trying to get violence done against a Supreme Court nominee.
00:32:07.000 You hear that?
00:32:08.000 You ask questions.
00:32:10.000 You're trying to get her killed.
00:32:14.000 I mean, speaking of violence, do we remember the Kavanaugh hearings?
00:32:17.000 I lived through it.
00:32:19.000 What I mean, I lived through it.
00:32:20.000 I was there on the front lines of these, let's say, passionate people.
00:32:26.000 Is that one way to say it, Connor?
00:32:28.000 Screaming at my face.
00:32:31.000 They were trying to get me arrested.
00:32:33.000 There's a lot of the footage in the Charlie Kirk show archives that you guys might see on YouTube that has millions and millions and millions of views came during the Kavanaugh deal.
00:32:43.000 Yeah, we should post that today.
00:32:44.000 That's a good idea, Connor.
00:32:45.000 That's exactly right.
00:32:46.000 We should.
00:32:47.000 Republicans are going to dig in a little bit, which is good to see.
00:32:50.000 At first, this kind of was going to be a rubber stamp committee.
00:32:53.000 She's going to get 60 or 70 votes.
00:32:54.000 I'm not so sure that's the case anymore.
00:32:57.000 It seems that this is ramping up to be a real fight.
00:33:02.000 But again, the reason why you have a child sex offending, sympathizing, gitmoter-defending judge is because the criteria of how she was chosen was flawed from the beginning.
00:33:16.000 Clarence Thomas was not chosen because of his skin color.
00:33:19.000 Clarence Thomas was chosen because he was brilliant.
00:33:23.000 And maybe Katanji Brown Jackson is a brilliant legal mind, but we'll never actually know about that, will we?
00:33:28.000 Well, judging based on her writings, she certainly isn't.
00:33:33.000 But putting that aside, it's also bad for the recipient of the affirmative action.
00:33:40.000 Judge Katanji Brown is poised to become a member of the United States Supreme Court simply because of her melanin content and her chromosomal structure.
00:33:52.000 Being a kind of revolutionary fanatic is something that should make every U.S. Senator take pause.
00:34:01.000 And this is going to be very interesting, by the way.
00:34:03.000 This Supreme Court fight, I think, has just gone from a potential benefit for Democrats to a liability.
00:34:10.000 Raphael Warnock, who's going to be up against the great Herschel Walker in Georgia, he's going to have to explain why he voted for a judge that had a soft spot for child pedophiles.
00:34:21.000 Mark Kelly here in Arizona is going to have to explain why he voted for a judge that has a soft spot for Gitmo terrorists, Cortez Mastro in Nevada, and so on and so forth.
00:34:32.000 This went potentially, if Republicans play their cards right, to a stimulus for the Democrat cause coming into November to a massive liability.
00:34:43.000 Maybe they should have actually read her biography and did some research and not just said we are going to nominate somebody because of their sex and their race.
