00:02:09.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:02:47.000The idea of justice is supposed to be blind and is supposed to be, in its design, unimpacted by outside threats, intimidation, or influences.
00:03:05.000The founding father of the Western idea of justice, the justice system, I guess you could say, is not an American.
00:03:17.000It's a man by the name of William Blackstone.
00:03:26.000William Blackstone was a man who lived right before the Founding Fathers.
00:03:34.000One of his most famous quotes is one that you'll hear in law school repeatedly: that it's better for 10 guilty people to escape than for one innocent person to suffer.
00:03:44.000Now, what is the wisdom behind that quote?
00:03:47.000And by the way, Blackstone was a devout Christian and had a great amount of respect for, not just respect, he believed in the transcendent biblical order.
00:03:57.000And so he believed that the justice system must be intentionally rigorous, that in order to sacrifice someone, in order to take away someone's freedom of movement, of travel, of speech, and put them in a confinement, a prison, you must be really sure of what you're doing.
00:04:20.000Now, Blackstone had some failings as well.
00:04:22.000Blackstone was an unapologetic defender of the monarchy, as was Edmund Burke.
00:04:31.000But Edmund Burke was, he was more supportive of the American Revolution than I think that most people ever give him credit for.
00:04:38.000He was a harsh critic of the French Revolution, though.
00:04:43.000William Blackstone famously said, no enactment of man can be considered the law unless it conforms to the law of God.
00:04:48.000And so Blackstone was teasing what Jefferson would eventually say in the Declaration, the laws of nature and nature's God.
00:04:55.000Nature coming from the Latin word birth or new or out of the earth.
00:05:02.000William Blackstone had another quote, though.
00:05:04.000William Blackstone, from 1723 to 1780, said the following.
00:05:11.000Self-defense is justly called the primary law of nature.
00:05:20.000So it is not, neither can it be in fact ever taken away by the laws of society.
00:05:30.000William Blackstone, the architect of the Western justice system, said that self-defense is justly called the primary law of nature.
00:05:43.000Think about the significance of what he's saying there.
00:05:47.000That if you're not able to defend yourself against an aggressor, then you are violating at the core the social contract of your existence in the laws of nature and nature's God.
00:06:00.000Now, Blackstone meant this both for people like Kyle Rittenhouse and Brett Kavanaugh.
00:06:06.000You see, Blackstone was not just saying that you should be able to defend yourself against the child rapist who wants to kill you, like Kyle Rittenhouse, but also against people like Christine Balzay Ford who decide to come out and say, you know, I think you did something bad to me.
00:06:25.000And Brett Kavanaugh should be able to say, that's not true.
00:06:31.000Blackstone understood that an aggressor going after an innocent, that the innocent has a moral and biblical obligation to defend oneself.
00:06:46.000And that's really what's on trial here, isn't it?
00:06:49.000It's not just that Kyle Rittenhouse, according to the activist media, should not have been able to defend himself in the street.
00:06:56.000It's not that just Kyle Rittenhouse should not be able to defend himself against Rosenbaum or whatever that freak isoid is.
00:07:04.000It's that Kyle Rittenhouse should not even be able to defend himself in court.
00:07:09.000It's that Kyle Rittenhouse, because he looked like he was part of a militia and he had his hat backwards with a gun, he's got to sit down and shut up and accept the societal ancestral guilt punishment of being a white Anglo-Saxon Protestant male from northern Illinois who carried a gun.
00:07:25.000You have to suffer the same way they wanted to make Kavanaugh suffer, the same way they wanted to make Nick Sandman suffer, the same way they wanted to make the McCloskey suffer.
00:07:33.000Do you see any common theme between all of those?
00:07:35.000Kavanaugh, Covington, Rittenhouse, and McCloskey.
00:07:39.000In fact, Connor, we got to get a picture of all of them.
00:07:42.000All of them are white Anglo-Saxon Protestant conservatives that embodied a narrative, an archetype that was helpful to the regime, but when it actually comes up against facts, Kavanaugh, Sandman, McCloskey, Rittenhouse, it falls apart.
00:09:46.000This was a flashback back during Floyd Palooza.
00:09:48.000Elderly man with a fire extinguisher tries to ward off BLM writers and protesters, then they beat him unconscious and he begins bleeding from the head.
00:09:57.000Cut 45, you might remember this, graphic warning.
00:10:00.000These are the people the prosecution have called heroes.
00:10:16.000And these are the people that the other side is trying to tell us are heroes.
00:10:22.000Now, the National Guard has now been deployed to Kenosha.
00:10:25.000Why has the National Guard been deployed to Kenosha?
00:10:28.000Well, it's because now Governor Evers of Wisconsin is trying to prevent rioting and looting from happening in Kenosha, despite the fact that if he would have deployed the National Guard to prevent rioting and looting from Kenosha, this whole Kyle Rittenhouse drama never would have unfolded.
00:10:47.000Self-defense is justly called the primary law of nature.
00:10:51.000So it is not, neither can it be in fact taken away from the laws of society.
00:10:56.000Ronald Reagan, self-defense is not only our right, it is our duty.
00:11:02.000And Gandhi, though violence is not lawful, when it is offered in self-defense or for the defense of the defenseless, it is an act of bravery, far better than cowardly submission, Gandhi said.
00:11:14.000The latter befits neither man nor woman.
00:11:17.000Under violence, there are many stages and varieties of bravery.
00:11:21.000Every man must judge this for himself.

00:13:46.000Okay, a lot of people can say that they were ahead of the curve, but I'll tell you what, Jack Pasobic from Humanevents Daily, humanevents.com, in partnership with Turning PointUSA, TPUSA.com, was beyond the head of the curve.
00:14:02.000Jack Pesobic on his Twitter and his Telegram was saying, We are two weeks out from the Rittenhouse trial, one week out from the Rittenhouse trial.
00:14:11.000He's been on top of it the entire time, and he joins us now.
00:14:13.000Jack Pesobic is a good friend and a great American, and he is smart, and he's on top of the ball.
00:14:34.000Of course, news of the day is something that always is going to take precedence.
00:14:37.000But I knew that this case would be a seminal moment in American politics and American culture here in the 21st century for a variety of reasons.
00:15:20.000So we've got the composition has been reported by the Kenoshan News of the jury.
00:15:24.000And keep in mind that we've been able to watch a lot of this trial based on the live stream.
00:15:27.000But the one aspect that you couldn't see on any of these live streams was the jury.
00:15:32.000Now, I had the ability to talk to a source who was in the room for the entire trial this past weekend, and he told me that it seemed as though the jury seemed to be, maybe not necessarily in Kyle's favor, but they seemed to have gotten a bad impression by the actions and the condescension and the tone from these prosecutors.
00:15:54.000It really seemed like the prosecutors had turned it into a personal vendetta rather than a finding of truth or a finding of justice in the community.
00:16:02.000It seemed like it had become very politicized, and it seemed as though the jury was not interested in that, that it kind of turned them off.
00:16:22.000You have Joy Reid, you know, going on like, oh, I don't know if it's going to be a fair hearing because people don't look like me on the trial.
00:16:28.000They're doing the same thing with Ahmaud Arbery.
00:17:11.000So you're going to need full compliance from everybody, whether for guilt or for acquittal.
00:17:20.000What you're talking about is the idea of a hung jury situation.
00:17:24.000And in the Kyle Rittenhouse case, there is a very real danger of what's called a rogue juror or a stealth juror.
00:17:33.000I think in this case, we might call it an activist juror.
00:17:36.000If you've got someone on there who's super anti-Second Amendment, if you've got someone on there who's just completely like, I'm pro-BLM and pro-Antifa, and this guy has got a fry because he's not on my political team, then they will sit there and cross their arms and say, I ain't voting.
00:18:16.000And I don't see all 12 people agreeing to that.
00:18:19.000Would you think that's probably right?
00:18:21.000Yeah, I think you could certainly find maybe a few people who would just have that belief that, you know, if he used it, we had one juror during selection saying, oh, if he used an AR-15, everything must be guilty because the AR-15 should be illegal, right?
00:18:32.000You can find people who will say things like that, but I don't think you're going to find a group of people in the city of Kenosha that's going to say unequivocally that he's guilty.
00:18:39.000Yeah, I think that there's a big concern, though, and a fear that there might be an obstinate, politically motivated juror.
00:18:47.000When did we decide to stop upholding free speech as a basic right?
00:18:51.000What's playing out right now at so many big tech companies and social media sites set a very dangerous precedent.
00:18:58.000Look, it doesn't matter what your politics are or who you voted for.
00:19:02.000Everyone should have the right to express themselves freely.
00:19:05.000Sadly, the big tech oligarchs and their monopoly has instead opted for silencing people and censorship.
00:19:12.000To fight back against big tech's control of the internet, I use Express VPN.
00:19:18.000Ever wondered how free to access tech giants make all their money?
00:19:21.000Well, by tracking your searches, they sell you.
00:19:24.000They build a profile on you and they sell your sensitive data.
00:19:28.000When you use ExpressVPN and their wonderful app on your computer or phone, you anonymize much of your online presence by hiding your IP address.
00:19:38.000That makes your activity more difficult to trace and to sell to advertisers.
00:19:43.000What's more is ExpressVPN encrypts 100% of your network data to protect you from eavesdroppers and cyber criminals.
00:19:51.000What I like most is how easy it is to use.
00:19:54.000It takes just one click to protect all your devices.
00:19:57.000That's why ExpressVPN is rated number one by CNET.
00:20:01.000So let's stop allowing big tech to revoke our rights to free speech.
00:20:04.000Why not revoke their right to your data instead?
00:20:08.000Secure your internet with the VPN that I trust, the only VPN that I use.

00:20:31.000Jack, so I got to ask you, so right now, the jury is deliberating and the judge has ordered the Rittenhouse family to be 10 minutes away in case of a verdict.
00:20:44.000And Kenosha's on, they're on pins and needles.
00:20:47.000There's a lot of tension in town right now.
00:20:49.000I've been talking to people who are on the ground.
00:20:52.000The National Guard has been called up, but Tony Evers, the governor of Wisconsin, the same governor who elected Kenosha Byrne last year, the National Guard was called up with Charlie.
00:21:01.000They're an hour and a half out of the city.
00:21:44.000I'm not upset with people who tried to make the best of a very terrible situation that never should have happened in the first place.
00:21:50.000But I guess for David French, you know, that's just not enough because he doesn't care very much about the Second Amendment or an inherent right to defend yourself.
00:21:56.000Well, and it's also completely irrelevant.
00:21:59.000And so it's irrelevant to say that in a criminal proceeding, whether or not you think Kyle should have been there.
00:22:20.000I get attacked, which I don't care, by saying, well, yeah, if George Floyd wasn't trading counterfeit currency, he wouldn't have been arrested.
00:22:26.000Counterfeit currency most likely from China, by the way.
00:22:29.000Yeah, and also if he wasn't, you know, maybe overdosing on drugs.
00:22:38.000Well, remember, we can include the context when it's somebody who's not on our team, but when someone who is on our team, we have to paint them in the most possible, you know, positive light possible.
00:22:50.000For example, by the way, the defense was not allowed to bring in these questions about the criminal, the disgusting and depraved criminal history of Joseph Rosenbaum because, and you have to look at it from the sense of this, even though this guy was convicted of child rape, right?
00:23:07.000That did not play a role in the circumstances because he was there that night.
00:23:12.000He wasn't there that night doing that.
00:23:14.000So it actually, like, I understand that from a jury situation because we are affording people the full benefit of law.
00:23:29.000You don't want past actions and irrelevant situations and relevant facts to have to deal with any situation.
00:23:35.000But one interesting thing that Kyle Rittenhouse does have in his favor, a name that I think the mainstream media has just started to figure out, but it's the name of Joe Ellen Demetrius.
00:23:45.000And the Washington Post just did a piece on her today, but they haven't realized exactly who this is and why she's so important.
00:23:50.000She was the person who was the jury consultant for Kyle Rittenhouse.
00:23:56.000She was the jury consultant for O.J. Simpson, as well as Rodney King and a bevy of other very high-profile cases.
00:24:04.000She wrote an entire book about being able to read people, being able to read jurors, and she has been a consultant both to Kyle and to his family and to the defense team all the way through this case.
00:24:17.000So they really do have an ace up their sleeve in terms of her doing this and being a part of it.
00:24:23.000Look, I think the prosecution didn't do a great job in terms of their closing.
00:24:27.000I don't know if the defense, there are things that I would have done differently on the defense.
00:24:30.000Of course, I'm not there, but I do wish that they had told the story a little bit better.
00:24:35.000I think they would have, if they had just stuck to that narrative, to understanding that had Kyle not been armed that night to be able to defend himself, he took steps to save his own life from a murderous mob that would have killed him, period.
00:24:52.000His actions were taken in self-defense, period.
00:24:55.000He would not be here today because he wouldn't be alive if that mob had been able to do what they wanted to do to him.
00:25:02.000And so I was looking for those sort of definitive, declarative statements that paint the description, talking about the town being terrorized for three nights prior to that, understanding the context that he was in.
00:25:11.000Because when you look at a self-defense situation, you look at the way the law is written, it is done from the perspective of the person who is committing the acts, right?
00:25:25.000He knows he's running for his life from his perspective.
00:25:28.000From his perspective, a reasonable person can look at that and say he would most likely have been killed if he did not take taps, not just to defend himself, but to save his own life.
00:25:39.000And that's a key phrase here because that's exactly what he did.
00:25:43.000If he did not take those steps, and we've seen again and again throughout the summer of 2020, people were beaten, people were maimed, and people were killed in the riots of 2020.
00:25:53.000And if we didn't know about this, Kyle Rittenhouse, unfortunately, would have been another statistic.
00:25:59.000And what we're getting a lot, a lot of people are emailing us, freedom at charliekirk.com, and they're saying, Charlie, how did this even get to trial?
00:26:06.000And so I guess my question is, Jack, did they submit more charges?
00:26:10.000It's not just first-degree murder now, it's second-degree.
00:26:15.000Can you help explain that to me and to our audience?
00:26:17.000It doesn't really make a lot of sense.
00:26:18.000Well, the reason that this is on trial in the first place is because of politics.
00:26:21.000You know, typically in a self-defense situation, you don't have all of this video evidence.
00:26:27.000You don't have the brave, intrepid citizen journalists like Drew Hernandez, Richie McGuinness, the whole team from Daily Caller, Jorge Ventura, Shelby Talcott.
00:27:10.000And by the way, no, he wasn't firing indiscriminately because there were 22 rounds still left in his magazine at the end of that night because he was not firing indiscriminately.
00:28:04.000I interrupted one of the performances of Shakespeare in the Park when they were stabbing this actor dressed up like Trump every single night.
00:28:11.000Well, I went and disrupted it and said, you need to stop doing this.
00:28:14.000And I made some colorful comments to the people who were there, and that went pretty viral.
00:28:19.000But the idea was we cannot normalize political violence in the United States.
00:28:23.000Look, I had family that was behind the Eastern Curtain, that lived on the Eastern Front.
00:28:28.000You don't want to go to one of those places.
00:29:12.000And I think we all know why he's a Lunchbox.
00:29:14.000That these guys were tacking on every single lesser included charge they possibly could find because they are not confident in their own charges.
00:29:25.000And then we saw the judge, by the way, yesterday threw out the gun charge because it didn't apply in this case.
00:29:34.000They threw it on there maliciously to try to paint this entire trial as if, you know, it's coming from this, this media narrative has always been, well, he crossed state lines with an AR-15.
00:29:45.000Well, number one, he didn't cross state lines with AR-15 because, or that he shouldn't have had before, he wasn't allowed to have.
00:29:51.000He didn't cross state lines with AR-15, and he was allowed to have an AR-15 under Wisconsin law as a 17-year-old because it was not a short barrel rifle.
00:29:58.000That law was about short barrel rifles.
00:30:02.000The judge threw it out, and they're tacking on all this extra stuff to try to think, well, if the jury's not going to give him for murder, maybe we can hang him up on one of these other things as a way of finding some way to split the baby on this.
00:30:16.000And so I guess I don't understand it as well enough because it would be different arguments for every single charge, wouldn't it?
00:30:46.000And the way he described it is it is an imperfect self-defense situation where what it means is you were allowed to use self-defense, but essentially you took things into the level, escalated to the point where it was deadly and you didn't need to, right?
00:31:03.000So it's kind of this gray area where even if you're defending yourself, you become excessive in your defense of yourself, you know, didn't need to kill that person.
00:31:13.000You know, I think obviously if you look at the facts of this just from a plain reading of the evidence, it certainly shows that he took appropriate steps to defend himself and that any reasonable person would be able to do this.
00:31:23.000But it is this sort of legal gray area of, say, of trying to, again, find a middle ground of saying, all right, we can see that he had self-defense, but not that much self-defense.
00:31:35.000And so that's going to kind of be down to the jury to kind of.
00:32:39.000The FBI calls title fraud one of the fastest growing crimes, and it can ruin you financially, which is why you need home title lock.
00:32:45.000Title fraud happens when a criminal forges your signature on documents stating you sold your home to him.
00:32:50.000Then he takes out loans against your home and leaves with the payments.
00:32:52.000You'll spend a fortune in legal fees trying to prove you didn't commit fraud.
00:32:56.000Home title lock puts a barrier around your home's title.
00:32:59.000The instant they detect anyone, from a cyber thief to a renter to a relative trying to forge their way to your home's title, they help shut it down.
00:33:06.000Go to home, titlelock.com and register your address now to see if you're already a victim.
00:33:21.000Home title lock.com, promo code radio.
00:33:26.000So, Jack, from what I understand, the judge gave very clear instructions that if he's innocent or not guilty on the main charge, the other lesser charges might not stand.
00:33:40.000So if you find that he acted in self-defense on each of the various incidents here, it's really four incidents, believe it or not, because interestingly enough, the prosecutors have named Daily Caller reporter Richie McGinnis as one of the potential victims of Kyle Rittenhouse because of reckless endangerment.
00:34:06.000That McGinnis was standing behind Rosenbaum, basically in the line of fire, to look at it that way, while Kyle was defending himself against Rosenbaum.
00:34:16.000So there is the potential that he could have endangered Richie McGinnis, even though Richie McGinnis, of course, went in and testified, and the clip went viral.
00:34:26.000Basically, even though he was called in by the prosecutors, he testified really on behalf of Kyle.
00:34:32.000And his testimony completely went towards Kyle's defense that, yes, that the assailant was or the aggressor was Rosenbaum going for the gun 100% here.
00:34:44.000And I know Richie, he's a friend of mine.
00:34:45.000We were in Chad's together out in Seattle.
00:34:47.000He was there that day when Wayne Antifa got in my face out at the Lincoln Park statue down the street here.
00:34:52.000And we got that kind of picture of me with facing off with the guy.
00:34:56.000Richie was like maybe 10 feet away when that happened and that all went down.
00:35:00.000So it's incredible to me to see that not only is one of the charges concerning Richie, but Richie's there testifying really on behalf of Kyle.
00:35:16.000I want to play this tape here of the brilliant Joe Scarborough mocking Kyle Rittenhouse for having an AR-15 and for shooting 60 rounds or whatever.
00:36:00.000But the bigger lie is that he fired 60 rounds.
00:36:03.000I don't even think he had 60 rounds on him that entire night.
00:36:05.000Again, he brought that weapon there for positive defense of himself if something came out.
00:36:11.000And by the way, when Kyle was going around that night, he was offering medical aid to people regardless of where they were from, regardless of quote unquote, what side they were on and anything.
00:36:21.000He wasn't asking people if they were on the left or the right or BLM, Republicans, any of that.
00:36:30.000By the way, breaking news, not necessarily from the trial, but the other assailant, the man that Kyle shot at, who's only been referred to thus far as Jump Kick Man.
00:36:41.000This is the photo that came out that you can see a gentleman, you know, a guy who's just leaping through the air, kicking Kyle in the head while he's already on the ground.
00:36:51.000Not only is he, was he not identified, he was not charged, he has now been identified by Dan O'Donnell in Wisconsin as they have targeted the guy.
00:37:02.000Apparently, they found out, they haven't released his name yet, but they did identify who it was and they found that he did reach out to the prosecutors and offer to testify in exchange for immunity for a DUI that he's facing against with Kenosha.
00:37:18.000But instead, just like Zaminski, the Zaminski's, Joshua Zaminski, who fired the first shot at Kyle Rittenhouse, the prosecutors did not call this person to the stand.
00:37:31.000They didn't want the jury to see why it was that he leapt at Kyle Rittenhouse.
00:37:36.000In fact, none of the people who were involved in any of this, with the exception of Gage Grosskrutz, who is essentially a 1B Antifa member, was able to testify.
00:37:44.000And you saw how ridiculous and like he was the best one they could find to testify against Kyle.
00:37:51.000In 10 seconds, do we expect a jury decision today?
00:37:55.000Well, I think we get a decision today.
00:37:57.000But I could certainly see the jury holding off and saying that they want to go a couple of days because, again, they tacked on all of these extra charges and there's a lot to go through.
00:38:06.000Another good David French tweet to comment on.
00:38:13.000He said, I just got my Pfizer booster, and this was so far was the only side effect.
00:38:19.000And he posted a picture of Aquaman with his, I guess, his super trident powers and said that that has turned him into some kind of super.
00:38:29.000I mean, I don't understand what kind of person, a grown man bases his life around movies made for children and then runs around bragging about all the vaccines he's taking.
00:39:16.000So what you're seeing there is someone who has never handled a firearm in his life, certainly not an AR-15, doesn't know anything about gun safety, doesn't even know the basic mechanics of how you're supposed to hold a gun.
00:39:28.000If you look at from the other angle, his finger is positively on the trigger, even though he's pointing it at other human beings that he does not intend to pull the trigger.
00:39:48.000He wanted to shock the jury into seeing what it would feel like to have an AR-15 pointed at them.
00:39:55.000But you have to wonder if that was a double-edged sword because in the situation of Joseph Rosenbaum, he had an AR-15 pointed at him and he continued chasing that person.
00:40:29.000I mean, Charlie, at the end of the day, it's mob mentality, right?
00:40:31.000You've got people that are out there already smashing, looting, burning.
00:40:35.000When he went up, Joshua Zaminsky was pouring accelerant and lighter fluid into one of those cars at the car source, and they were lighting it on fire.
00:40:46.000They've actually both been charged with arson for that.
00:40:49.000Though we'll see if that case actually goes through, because for some reason, it seems like the prosecutor is really only keeping out of books on that one on the books that they don't come and testify.
00:41:01.000They've essentially turned off their sort of prefrontal cortexes and said, you know, we are just going to revert back to this primal state of destruction, destroying.
00:41:10.000And they see a guy who's coming up with a fire extinguisher who's, you know, not on our team, who's part of the other group.
00:41:34.000You can't claim self-defense against an unarmed man like this.
00:41:41.000You lose the right to self-defense when you're the one who brought the gun, when you're the one creating the danger, when you're the one provoking other people.
00:41:51.000You know, go talk to anybody who's got a concealed carry permit like myself or anyone who's in an open gun state, open carry state.
00:42:00.000You obviously, no, if you're exercising your Second Amendment right, no, you are not aggressing anyone and you certainly do not lose your right to self-defense.
00:42:11.000Charlie, I think the last time we were on here, we talked about this, that you do not have rights if you also do not have the right to defend them, right?
00:42:20.000If you don't have the, you know, it's one thing for me to, okay, if I have the Second Amendment, but I've got a bunch of guns, you know, in a safe in my house.
00:42:44.000The law of the land here in the United States.
00:42:46.000And yet Binger just decides to throw that out the window because it doesn't fit in.
00:42:50.000But are they going in a direction where they want to say that, okay, we can't get rid of your guns, but we're going to get rid of your ability and your freedom and the right to use the guns.
00:43:02.000So the D.C. gun law stated that you could have your gun, sure, because the Second Amendment, but it had to be locked up and the ammo had to be locked up.
00:43:09.000And each one, each piece of it had to have an individual gun lock and the ammo had to be locked.
00:43:14.000And so there was no effective way for you to ever be able to use it if you were in an emergency or crisis situation.
00:43:19.000And that's what, you know, I'm paraphrasing a lot here, but that's the summary of what Heller found or what the court found in the Heller decision.
00:43:25.000And so what Binger is saying, he's taking it to the next level and saying that you are losing.
00:43:30.000It's a full mask off moment for the regime.
00:43:34.000They're telling you, well, we're not going to take your guns, but we're going to tell you that you're not allowed to use them, right?
00:43:39.000So it's in the same way that people like Binger and David French will sit and watch movies on TV of men doing manly things, that you won't actually be allowed to do any of that in the real world.
00:43:52.000Just also, this ties into McCloskey and Kavanaugh and Covington.
00:43:57.000You know, the McCluskeys are actually there today.
00:44:14.000And despite what the mainstream media says, and despite what the president of the United States may say, the jury in this trial heard the facts.
00:44:22.000And we're hoping that they find Kyle Rittenhouse innocent on all accounts.
00:44:45.000With Nick Salmon, he's literally standing on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, right?
00:44:52.000Standing in the nation's capital, and he's attacked by the mob.
00:44:56.000The McCluskeys, their home was attacked by the mob.
00:44:58.000Kyle Rittenhouse was attacked by a mob.
00:45:00.000And you could go to Andy No's Twitter feed or my Twitter feed, Elijah Schaefer, and see all the other instances where people were attacked by mobs in 2020 and they weren't able to defend themselves.
00:45:11.000And you can see the results of those mob attacks.
00:46:19.000The rest of the story that I heard was that because Biden was, I think as everybody knows, he clearly wasn't feeling very well on his European trip.
00:47:20.000Well, I think, I think, I mean, count one will certainly be Afghanistan for Joe Biden, but I think there's numerous counts that'll probably hopefully come up in 2023 when the new Congress is.
00:48:02.000Well, so what's interesting, if you listen to Bannon's lawyer or read any of his legal responses, and I've read them all, I read them in real time as they came out, that Bannon never said that he wouldn't testify or that he wouldn't provide documents.
00:48:14.000It was a documentary subpoena that came out.
00:48:17.000But what he said was, look, there's an executive privilege question here because you're asking me for statements that I was told by the sitting president of the United States, President Trump, when he was still in office.
00:48:29.000I can't tell you those because he's exerting executive privilege over all of his statements that took place during that time.
00:48:37.000And so he is obviously suing the committee.
00:48:39.000This is going to go to the Supreme Court.
00:48:41.000And what his lawyer said was, we are waiting for the decision on the executive privilege question before we can respond to the subpoena because you're asking me for statements that were made by the sitting president of the United States.
00:48:54.000So he actually does have quite a strong legal case when it comes to that.
00:48:58.000And this is not the sort of thing that you usually see ever prosecuted here in Washington.
00:49:03.000Yeah, contempt of Congress is really hard to challenge.
00:49:08.000I suppose, though, that why not even just go through the motions, right?
00:49:13.000I mean, or why not like engage with the committee?
00:49:15.000And, you know, well, it's interesting because there are ways to fight a subpoena.
00:49:29.000He made a legal argument back and said, I'm waiting for the court's decision.
00:49:34.000Once the decision comes out, we'll be able to tailor our response to you based on their decision.
00:49:39.000It's actually a pretty strong and straightforward legal argument.
00:49:42.000I've had some people reach out and not even, you know, like Republican types reach out and say, you know, I don't know if this passes the bar for motion of dismissal if this goes to trial, because when you're looking at it on the merits, it doesn't quite seem like they've provided actual evidence of contempt.
00:50:25.000Basically, Annie Kash Patel, anybody who was in the White House, Johnny McEntee, people who are in and around during those last days of the Trump administration are all going to be called forward on this.
00:50:36.000And so basically, the message is being sent.
00:51:36.000Well, what's interesting to me is that, you know, a guy like Steve Bannon, he wants the platform, right?
00:51:41.000He wants the ability to be before the American people and present what he views as evidence from last year, January, or excuse me, November 3rd, right?
00:51:52.000That's what this whole thing was about, that he wanted to talk about his argument for irregularities on 3 November.
00:51:59.000That was the whole point of calling for a debate on January 6th.
00:52:03.000And they go through that podcast and they, I say, play the episodes, and Media Matters has this thing out now, where they go through and some of the episodes I'm on and some of the others from War Room from the days prior to January 6th.
00:52:14.000And they always cut it right before we say, oh, it's going to be historic.
00:53:26.000I mean, you're essentially seeing the regime's enemies list, and they're making moves against them.
00:53:30.000I mean, I wouldn't be surprised if you and I are on some of these enemies lists out there from various entities in the government.
00:53:37.000It's all about, you know, this is what they said in the Soviet Union.
00:53:40.000Show me the man and I'll show you the crime.
00:53:42.000That was the motto of the KGB in the Soviet Union.
00:53:46.000I had family in communist Poland behind the Eastern, you know, the Iron Curtain or East Germany.
00:53:50.000If you watch the movie Lives of Others, they will find a way to launch an investigation of you.
00:53:54.000And then the invest, and then in the investigation, if you don't, you know, you don't say, you know, do the sign of the cross before you go walk across the street or whatever it is, boom, they got you, right?
00:54:04.000Because you, you know, forgot to cross your T's or dot your lowercase I's.
00:54:08.000And so what they're doing is they're using lawfare.
00:54:12.000They're using naked political power through the justice system, the weaponization of the justice system.
00:54:17.000Of course, we've seen this with the corruption of the FBI play out all through the Trump administration and all through the last five years.
00:54:24.000Now, because Trump is sort of adjacent to the chess board at the moment, they're trying to do everything they can to say, okay, the king's over there, but we've got all these, we've got the Knights, we've got the Rooks, we've got everyone else that we can go after, take out all of them before the chess move can be happening, can be made again.
00:54:41.000And so, what is the latest with Project Veritas?
00:54:43.000They're in court, but also who's leaking the confidential privileged information to the New York Times.
00:55:01.000Because the Southern District of New York, if you're under their jurisdiction, they are the most politically weaponized districts in the entire country.
00:55:09.000They have been for some time now, and they will use any pretext to go after you.
00:55:14.000Again, James O'Keefe never published the Ashley Biden diary.
00:55:18.000Never once did you hear anything from James O'Keefe or Project Veritas or anyone connected to Project Veritas about this diary.
00:55:26.000It's a completely separate website, but it doesn't matter because they found out that James knew about it at one point and they used that as a pretext for a pre-dawn raid where they threw him up against the wall, right?
00:55:36.000Threw him up against the wall at six in the morning, dragged him out of his house, his apartment, and said, We are going to go through your things because we have a warrant.
00:55:45.000These are the actions of a failing regime.
00:55:47.000The question is for the American people: do you want to continue living in a country where stuff like this happens, or do you want change?
00:57:07.000So actually, you know, back when the justice system was used for good.
00:57:10.000And so he took down the five families.
00:57:12.000And so you know that if this was in Texas or if this were somewhere else that's more of a red area, then you're going to have less of a chance of these types of politicized, weaponized justice actions against you.
01:00:20.000And so I said, you know, San Francisco, Chinatown, I've always heard is one of the oldest, one of the largest, the best Chinatowns in the United States.
01:00:27.000So I said, oh, I'd love to go there, find a place where they speak Mandarin, just walk in.
01:00:31.000You know, you always get that look on their face, like, oh, you speak our language.
01:00:34.000Like, sit down, have a nice seat, whatever.
01:01:04.000Well, and they were at the Getty wedding that same week.
01:01:06.000Of course, no, they are the Plato's guardians, right?
01:01:07.000So Plato had in one of his dialogues this idea of the people who are in charge of society that are immune to all of the measures and all of the consequences of the decisions that they implement.
01:01:20.000They are the ultimate, they are the unelected, right?
01:01:22.000And you could obviously say, oh, Pelosi's elected.
01:02:05.000You remember the Capitol and Hunger Games?
01:02:07.000And it was like you couldn't, if you looked at it close, like you looked away and then looked at it, you couldn't even tell which was which because they looked exactly the same.
01:02:16.000The regime is cracking down literally on political opponents and dissidents while they are ensconced in their power centers, wearing their livery and their flowers, putting masks over the servants, right?
01:04:17.000So what do you propose, President Snow says?
01:04:19.000Shut down the black markets, take away what little they have, then double the amount of floggings and executions, put them on TV, broadcast them live, and sow fear, more fear.
